I feel like they're pushing hard, so there're more new things to track/change. Last time I installed a local gitlab community server was 8.something, and it's just last year. I understand why my current company just keep local gitlab at older version (V8 I guess).

Cyber weapons mean that during a crisis, nuclear militaries have to consider whether their chain of command has been compromised.

What's the real math, a full-scope attack might do what, cripple 30% of the Modernized World at any given time? Maybe for a week? Shit, y'all need to catch up on nature a little bit.

For Google Maps, they refuse to even store local search history or use the local Address Book API to get your home address: to get either of these basic features you have to sign in with your Google Account, and to get the former feature you have to turn on saved search history for your entire Google account including normal web searches, and I imagine for the latter to work you need to turn on location tracking. Google acts maliciously with respect to obtaining personal data and clearly is never going to implement end-to-end encryption as it fundamentally undermines their mission of "organizing the world's information": they can't organize what they can't see.

Bob, Carol, Eric and Fiona are racists. Alice and Dan are not.

Alice is avoiding the self harm of discomfort and lonliness. A refusal to assimilate, sure, but as much as refusing to go square dancing and wear cowboy boots. Dan is being charitable and productive in his actions without inflicting actual injury or damages. Advocacy for those less fortunate requires operating within the constraints of a role, and he is targeting the path of least harm. Advocacy means choosing sides, although Dan gets a hall pass, since his actions are ethically defensible. These are minor transgressions in each case.

Bob, Carol and Eric are willfully causing harm for personal gain, and favoring paths of least resistance, without exploring (perhaps as a conceit of these framed parables) alternatives.

Fiona, meanwhile, is openly racist. It says so in the text, so no mystery there. Her racism serves as a form of ethical de-escalation of circumstances that Alice and Dan might unwittingly bring about (and the others actively strive for), as "normal" ambient social behavior.

While unsavory in sentiment, Fiona's actions might serve as a means to prevent open violence with a curious form of social lubrication, by bearing the burden of being socially despicable, while refereeing the outcomes of unpolicable realities, with her racist counterparts on the other side of the prison yard (if you will), in a somewhat organized manner.

Shaders are a completely different thing from styling (cascading).

GPUs work here because games fundamentally operate on a list-like datastructure (the display list), with little interdependence.

Styling on the other hand operates on a tree like datastructure (the DOM), with lots of interdependence.

Cascading isn't something games need at all, and if it was, it could be precomputed. THis can't be done in webpages.

One of the examples I saw you guys give on YouTube is how complex things are becoming, and you talked about the LOC of a modern car and this is a reason we need visual programming. On your website you also discuss the limitations of UML.

To design complex systems like a car, you really need to know not just the functionality and the type of information, but also the structure of the system. How do all of those systems on the car physically connect to result in the behavior.

It seems like your approach would be really powerful for data processing, since in that case I don't think the structure matters much. Have you thought about how this could be applied to a complex system where structure is extremely important?

Newsletter ads are very effective (and therefore can be extremely profitable) if you have an audience that people who control marketing budgets want to reach.

That said, email is just another medium. There's no one way to make money just like there's no one way to make money with an app.

I'm guessing it's not the kind of newsletter you meant, but we make millions selling ads in B2B email newsletters.
Are you seriously arguing that mutation, as a mechanism, isn't heritable?
Depends on quantity, but $850 to $1000 an issue. I use to do CPM pricing, but now at almost 50k subscribers I just stick with a flat rate.
I actually very rarely get paid to syndicate my content out.
Mainly because it's difficult to obtain. My bank has precious few ATMs. Typically if I really need cash I have to get it out of the old El Banco de CVS/Walgreens/7-Eleven in the form of cash back. All of my pay is directly deposited and so I rarely have the opportunity to interact with cash.

Why do you need style information for off-screen content in a text editor? It's not like you're going to have JS running that can query the computed style at any point. If it's for scrollbars then you can probably just use an approximation, or compute metrics without actually computing full style information.

To know how high the editor is, for scroll bars, Sublime Text-style minimaps, etc.

Computing metrics basically requires computing full style information. Doing cascading for any property isn't much more expensive than doing cascading for all properties.

> Based on my limited experience, most text editors don't have correct information for off-screen content anyways, as they tend to do lazy syntax highlighting, which you can sometimes see adjusting while you scroll.

Sure. The way to do that in the Web platform is to do what Atom is doing here: adjust styles only when elements come into view. IntersectionObserver can be useful for that.
Looks like it's the same as LucidCam (lucidcam.com)
> Is it worth restricting an editor to only styles that don't influence block layout?

That includes font-* and many other attributes that affect text rendering. It isn't possible to know the length of a line of text without computing most of the text layout in modern font rendering. Font family/size/variant, weight, kerning, vertical hinting, traditional horizontal hinting, and LCD subpixel hinting all influence character positions at 1/256 pixel resolution. I highly recommend this[1] paper for a good overview of how this works, which includes an analysis of why Microsoft's older font handling caused serious layout issues (cumulative x-length error) due to over-hinting that forced glyphs onto the pixel grid.

> editors

Monospace fonts usually let you ignore most of these issues, but some (crazy?) people program with proportional fonts[2], and we can't actually ignore Unicode...

(I just use an 80/20 solution: fast - and predictable - Terminus and Dina bitmap fonts most of the time, and let Unicode distort the layout with other stuff as needed)

If it were truly a sexist culture as was claimed then you wouldn’t be seeing these testimonials.

Fascinating.

One group of women saying the culture in Uber is corrosive? Well that's rumour and innuendo.

But another group of women saying it's fine? Well, then that's just the way it must be!

Confirmation bias much?

Here's the thing: There was an investigation. By Eric frickin' Holder. Not exactly a legal slouch. Out of that came nearly fifty recommendations for ways to fix the culture.

Are we to believe Holder was just full of it? That it was all manufactured? All because 6% of the Uber headcount think things were fine?

Edit:

Incidentally, those women that are supportive of Kalanick could easily be explained by survivorship bias. That is, the women that ended up in groups that didn't suck, or could handle the culture, stuck around while the rest left.

I'm sorry to hear it caused problems. I think we can maybe make the behavior more intelligent, it should not delete longer running branches by default. We are very reluctant to add options to GitLab as detailed in point 11 of the acceptance criteria of our contributing guide https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/blob/master/CONTRIBU...

But if we can't make the behavior more intelligent we will probably have to add an option.
> I suspect that we will soon have leaks of CIA tools too.

All of the stuff recently leaked by Wikileaks (including today) was from CIA.
Not just you. I think it's a societal reaction to being annoyed.

I actually liked the idea of tailored ads, originally. I wasn't rushing to give them my details, but I figured I was bombarded by ads anyway (this was back when google was the new crazy people thinking they could topple AltaVista, X10 pop-under ads were everywhere, and populating your /etc/hosts with false entries was your only adblocker) so it'd be nice to have those ads have a chance to be interesting.

But they didn't do what I wanted, or they barely did it. Instead they warred with the content I was trying to read, and they could go all out.

It's even a painful circle:

- a site has good content, but needs to pay costs, so they put up ads

- the ad companies get some results, but want more, so they make pushier, flashier, more animated ads

- Perhaps people find the content not worth this visual abuse, so they move on. Meaning the site is making less from the ads, so they put in more ads out of necessity.

Rinse, lather, repeat. (Though I really have no idea if that third step happens. It may just be the first two)

Perhaps if/when we have a real micropayments solution this can break, but currently any content that is paid for by ads tends to have only one-way incentives - be it the ads on TV, the radio DJs that have to rave about crap products, or whatever, we the audience can't _effectively_ vote with our dollars AGAINST the ads, so they have practically no limit to how pushy they get. (The ads in movie theaters aren't there to cover "free" content, but I've heard the margins in running a theatre are very thin, and you're still sort of a captive audience)

> I think that all these NSA problems show bad management. They should be reorganized, or maybe even abandoned. They cost more than they deliver, and even costed us our privacy.

I.e. the average citizen.

Q: Is the NSA there to support the average citizen, or are they there to support the bureaucracy / power structures?

Q: depending on the previous answer, does your security or privacy matter to the NSA?

>Probably they are still breaking US and international laws on that.

Do the people who enforce the law get punished when they break it? On the whole, I don't think that's a clear "Yes". More of a "maybe, sometimes".

The process could be made continuous by building in supports to the volume of parts being printed, so it wouldn't need to be supported from the bottom for the whole duration of the build. Continuous Selective Laser Sintering via periodic support structures and powder dams.

The interlocking parts and periodic build support structures could be made so that eventually lower parts could fall away and the powder recycled.

One could also build in dams, so that the powder didn't fall away as the lower parts fell away. Those dams would allow for powder retention.

Scott's problem is that his forum for discussion is social media.

No one can speak meaningfully and reasonably about anything on social media, let alone the politics of racism.

The medium makes the message almost completely devoid of meaning.

Seriously, there is no problem with the operating definition of racism outside of social media.

Every idiot screaming about the alt-right (or their phantasmagorical counter-part, the social justice warrior) is just someone who spends too much time on Twitter.

It's a shame there's so little info on this page. There are several articles about this from various tech news sites[1][2] (there are a bunch more, but I'm not gonna link to all of them).

If you want to try it out yourself, here's a playlist of videos on YouTube that are all "3D 180": https://www.youtube.com/watch?list=PLN_4SqVDVM7jCAt9RPKNrOzp...

One of the general ideas of this "VR 180" format is that it gives you a lot of the immersion of 360 video, but it's a lot easier for creators to use (you can still put all your equipment (lighting, sound, etc.) behind the camera and not worry about it being in the shot). The cameras capture 180(ish) degrees of view. When played on the web or iOS or Android, it will play/look like a normal video (with maybe a bit of a wide lense). But if you use a headset, then you can look around a little more and get the "VR immersion" experience.
