Also: Angular 2's Change Detection is a flaming tire fire of needless complexity.

Everyone benchmarks a Todo app and concludes that it has comparable perf to React. In practice, Angular 2's Change Detection makes apps incredibly slow.

Change Detection in a reasonably large app resembles a bucket of water, sloshing back and forth. Every template event and timer causes your Component tree to be re-rendered every time.

Because Angular doesn't encourage immutable data by default, and its ngFor directive optimizes for mutating data... Apps have a tremendous amount of trouble migrating to OnPush at a later time. It's a mine field riddled with gotchas and edge cases.

Angular2 lacks coherence. Or maybe its unifying theme is massive, needless complexity. It's not worth the trouble.
Hi, I was harsh on your other reply -- too harsh. Sorry.

Here, I totally agree. Mozilla grew a dysfunctional pattern of participants (more likely to be employees than not in my experience, but Mozilla hired most of the active contributors) stabbing projects, individuals, and other sub-groups in the back, under cover of "being open". This was inevitable given the framing in the "open vs. transparent" document:

https://wiki.mozilla.org/Working_open#Open_vs._Transparent

Even now, Mozilla punches itself in the face too often, with punchers (and sometimes punchees!) claiming it's all for the best.

Taking care to give colleagues a chance to interact over a nascent or less-than-clear technical controversy, before blogging or tweeting, is not being "closed". It is standard peer review with scalability via layers-of-the-onion socializing combined with the "hermeneutic spiral".

Shooting first, fast, and in public in a large community with competitors and press listening is "open" in a vacuous sense, but it has the downside risks you note.
That's what I thought was going on from the discussion. Glad to see that it's not just me reading it that way. I'd think then that if GRSec is doing it, and intending to use it that way (I am not a lawyer) then it would appear to me that the assertion that they're violating the GPL since they're adding another restriction on distribution.

There is no way to have a controlled release of new coins into the system. For that you need a blockchain that establishes a consensus on time transpired and on the total economic resources being contributed (which allows the share of the newly generated coins that each participant will receive in a unit of time to be proportional to the share of the total economic resources they are responsible for contributing).

There is no mechanism to link cost of proof of work generated to the value being transacted. With a blockchain, scarcity of space per block leads to a fee market forming, and fees paid increasing as the value contained per transaction increases. This leads to security (proof of work) increasing in proportion to value that needs to be protected.
Ohhh that totally makes sense. That image really illustrates the point well, too! Thanks!
They could still make it better by putting a link to the new location on the 404 page.

Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality ( http://www.hpmor.com ), Chapter 7:

"""Draco giggled. "Yeah, right. Anyway... to answer what you asked..." Draco took a deep breath, and his face turned serious. "Father once missed a Wizengamot vote for me. I was on a broom and I fell off and broke a lot of ribs. It really hurt. I'd never hurt that much before and I thought I was going to die. So Father missed this really important vote, because he was there by my bed at St. Mungo's, holding my hands and promising me that I was going to be okay."

Harry glanced away uncomfortably, then, with an effort, forced himself to look back at Draco. "Why are you telling me that? It seems sort of... private..."

Draco gave Harry a serious look. "One of my tutors once said that people form close friendships by knowing private things about each other, and the reason most people don't make close friends is because they're too embarrassed to share anything really important about themselves." Draco turned his palms out invitingly. "Your turn?""""
This is a good point. Investors really need to be smarter about deciding which people to invest with. I think they also need to be more creative. YC seems to be the only VC firm that is actively funding creative ideas, different strategies etc. instead of simply a "take this cash and give me stock" strategy (of course I'm being hyperbolic about the latter, but it seems that YC is definitely trying a lot more than conventional VC firms).
I'd nominate "yankee" but that word is complicated. To most people outside the USA (see below) it means "person from the USA"; to someone from the southern USA it means "person from the North"; to Northerners it means "New Englander"; and to New Englanders it refers to Boston Brahmin types with roots going back to England itself. So its meaning is roughly "the sort of prototypical American the speaker is not".

Additionally in Japan "yankee" is roughly synonymous with "gangsta". It refers to a subculture of school-aged delinquents who wear greaser style pompadours and are prone to get into fisticuffs. The Kunio-kun games (River City Ransom) and the main character of YuYu Hakusho provide examples.
This piece is chock full of ridiculous advice.

>> “I’m making a generic version of…”

>> It means: I don’t understand the constraints of the actual problem, so I’m going to design an even bigger problem that we have no way of verifying the efficacy of.

Yes, just tell the non-technical managers that "generic" means technicians have no idea what they are talking about. No matter what the problem is. That should make for a better world.

Whereas "refactoring" is only a "yellow flag".

Run away.
I think the conventional definition of millionaire in the financial world is a person with a million dollars in investments or liquid assets. A home does not count. Of course you may downgrade to a cheaper home (at retirement for example) and take some of the difference in cash.
Free speech applies to to public (government) entities. You can prevent someone from exercising their rights if they are within your private property. In public spaces this isn't the case, as it's public, but an employer doesn't have to allow any freedoms to their employees (minus human rights violations, which are explicitly stated in law).

So a company could say you aren't allowed to say a single word during work hours while working for them. They would also not have employees.
From your link:

> During the launch of a space shuttle, the roll program was simultaneously accompanied by a pitch maneuver and yaw maneuver.

It's the STS-specific pitch and yaw I'm talking about. And specifically that it happened at the height it would happen at the Cape, whereas energia had a different tower design that would have allowed the roll to happen earlier, for better efficiency.
Very interesting - was unable to find anything on subject. Could you point me to some examples (who stole from whom?)
That, and because some of the more enterprising students would come up with the idea on their own, so better to depress any such tendency ahead of time than end up with two or three people a year finding out via prison sentences that they weren't quite as smart as they thought they were.
That's not surprising at all, and would be required even if Buran was developed completely independently to STS. Without that manoeuvre the engines would thrust off-axis due to the side-mounted payload. It's easier to compensate for off-axis pitch than yaw when you have gravity to account for.

For Soyuz launches on the other hand they physically rotate the launch pad.
Nasty, yes. But can it do the file sync job correctly? Also yes.
Maybe you would be better served by a less confrontational way of making your own point, perhaps something like "I think your otherwise valid point would be made more effectively if it were couched in less emotionally abrasive language, such as
'I think the same approach would be perceived differently in Germany, perhaps coming off as egotistical.'"
Regex has enough sigil spam / characters that mean alternate things than "this is a letter" that mentally parsing it beyond the trivial case is difficult. They're ubiquitous, but they sure aren't a perfect UI
My assertion had nothing to do with whether they made it easy or hard to remove their trademarks.

My assertion was that Red Hat customers make agreements with Red Hat in which they agree not to redistribute RHEL. That is directly analogous to the GRSecurity case, except there we are relying on something OP heard thirdhand and in the case of RH we can read the agreements.
It's not really very useful. Most serious but recreational cyclists are limited in terms of available training time and recovery. When faced with the option of spending their limited time on the bike or in the weight room with the objective of going faster, the bike is almost invariably the right answer. The reason for that is that watts/kg and watts/cda are the 2 basic determinants of how quickly a cyclist can get anywhere. Weight lifting will increase the watts but only on a very, very short time scale (ie, sprinting). Weights will increase the kg and cda for cyclists who eat in surplus. Thus, the cyclist will be no faster and most probably actually get slower.

The obvious exception to this is track and road sprinters who benefit considerably from doing weight work. Everyone else serious about riding should just ride.
This kind of "cultivated extroversion" is a very american quality.
There's a bar in Cambridge, MA called The Cantabridgian.

Also in the 80s there was a small computer company based in Cambridge, England called Jupiter Cantab. They made the Jupiter Ace computer, a semi-clone of the ZX81 with Forth in ROM instead of BASIC.
I see hindsight bias lurking. Now we see it as a "waste," but I dare you to make and publicly post predictions about a bunch of startups, and prove you are more accurate than VCs.
UEFI is a good example of a standard that was over designed by a committee. Way too much bad decisions that are now part of the standard.

My favourite is using the FAT file system format for the system partition. No checksums, fragile on disk format, and no built in support for mirroring just to name a few.

And why they kept the idea of having the clock in local time is baffling. That just leads to errors when DST failed to apply or was applied twice.
"Linux is full of local root exploits"

Well, an entire support department that adds no value may indeed cost less, but losing your market because your product is defective (and you don't even know) can not be cheaper.
Last I checked, IRCv3 had also given up standardizing the server-to-server protocol.

All the men from teens to elders looked like gym models. It never struck me until I was in my 30's - but really I have the body of a sick individual and the guy on the gym adverts is actually what the human body looks by design, not some sort of aspirational dream.

I've seen comments like this before, and they're valid, but I've also seen evolutionary biologists and/or anthropologists point out too that many if not most people who are wounded or sick die. So you're also seeing selection bias, where the healthy thrive and you don't see the unhealthy because they're dead.
If your body fat percentage is too low, you'll run into side effects (including reproductive ones)

This is my annoyance with the OP - they're a very clear edge case and, technically, the product still works for them. They're not paying for a Windows or Mac app, they're paying for online storage and that part of the service works fine. They can still access all their files via the web browser and they can add and download files as they see fit. The issue with the app is probably exactly what you're mentioning and the person is acting like the service they're paying for is broken. It's not broken, they're just using the service in a very non-standard way.

Edit: Since people seem to be voting my comments down, I'll offer an analogy. This is like a professional bowler going to a family bowling alley and complaining about the balls they provide for you to use. These same balls work for 99% of the people paying to bowl. You don't deserve a refund because you're an edge case from all their other customers since the actual bowling alley is still open and you can still bowl, it just might not be a great experience. Get another ball, bring your own ball, or stop coming to this bowling alley.
Do you have a site you recommend with good routines? r/kettlebell maybe?

I'm familiar with kettlebells from Crossfit, but I know CF catches a lot of flak for how they use them.
I had a 2.0 in high school. Though in college I had a 3.56 due to the liberal arts requirements; 3.9 in STEM courses. 20 years in engineering, maxing out 401k and not blowing money on cars, etc. it's easy to have > $1E6 net worth.
The official Google Drive client has had all sorts of weirdness and missing features. a) 1 account :/ b) Oh, your wifi is off because you just went on a plane? Allow me to _busy loop and drain your entire battery_.

I have reasons for not liking Dropbox much, but their client is a lot more reliable.
I don't know if you're familiar with the title (it's a classic on the subject), but my understanding is that, in China, Dale Carnegie's "How to Win Friends and Influence People" is sold under the title: "The Weaknesses of Human Nature."

One more anecdote about that book. In his Playboy interview, Marlon Brando referred to it as "a book on hustling."

I bring this up because for some crazy reason, in the United States, this kind of "interpersonal communications" stuff is promoted as a great thing. And yet, like you say, it boils down to a person having an angle. I read that book when I was a freshman in college and thought it was fantastic. A little while later though I read the Marlon Brando interview, and after my initial shock I realized that he was basically right.

For every individual who develops a "genuine interest in other people" (as the book implores its readers to do), there have to be five or ten others who read that book and think only how it will help them make a buck.

At least the Chinese are unsentimental about it.
Of course the resources are rare. Each cryptocoin is unique to the network that backs it. The network is more than the open source software of the clients. It's also the blockchain itself, which is made more difficult to reverse through proof of work, and the userbase that uses the network/blockchain to transact value.

Something being cheap at first, and then becoming more expensive as demand for it increases, doesn't make it a ponzi scheme. By such a definition, any stock that saw its value increase would be a ponzi scheme.

The assertion of it being a ponzi scheme is pure ignorance at best, and at worse, intentional deception and defamation.
"My assertion was that Red Hat customers make agreements with Red Hat in which they agree not to redistribute RHEL. That is directly analogous to the GRSecurity case, except there we are relying on something OP heard thirdhand and in the case of RH we can read the agreements."

Then your assertion is a lie. I feel like I'm talking to a wall.

Red Hat very clearly does not prohibit distribution of the source of their kernel, or any other GPL component of RHEL, and in fact they make it available for free in the form of CentOS, and they do not prohibit others from distributing it either. Everything you've quoted above says nothing about what you keep saying it means.
The Pyra is not going to be released anytime soon, the Neo900 is overpriced... but we do have Plasma Mobile running on a few devices.
wouldn't it be a good idea to at least raise an error message if the client handle the number of files? it would alleviate the mystery and a lot of frustration.
For non-commercial folks, there are a couple of VPS providers that provide Anycast support. I personally have not used them, so I can not speak to how easy they have made it to configure.

I agree with your concerns around letting a CDN see traffic. In my workplace, we are not allowed to pass dynamic traffic through CDN's for that very concern that our customers share with you.
I have read (no source at hand though) that that one used to be "Nor-itch" but during the 20th century the pronunciation was gradually forgotten and replaced with a spelling pronunciation. If I remember correctly the same was true of Warwick ("War-ick") Rhode Island.
I would still use Angular 1.* for certain projects, but I feel like it has to be the tool that works when nothing else will.

I would take a look at React and Mithril. Mithril is pretty neat in that it's fast, lightweight, and everything's in javascript. I like that it is functional which totally changed how I approach Angular stuff.

React is/was kind of hard for me to grok but it's not hard to get something going, just difficult to break certain habits coming from Angular.
The home does count, as you can either put the money into rent, investment accounts, or a mortgage. I'd consider a house more liquid than retirement accounts.

I still owe $170k on my mortgage but have $1M in net worth. It's all in retirement accounts; all on paper and subject to markets. I surely don't feel wealthy. I'm 45 and hopefully I can get it to $2M - $4M by late 60's. I still don't consider that rich since people woefully underestimate retirement needs.

I'm stating the Dave Ramsey steps to see if I can get the mortgage payed off over 4 years, and get $160k saved for 2x kids college.
Why? The service is working as intended. He is able to store things on Google Drive. The issue is with the apps and the fact that he's trying to sync over 700GB via a 32-bit app. Additionally, they're offering him free storage. I understand that it's not ideal, but it's not like the service is down and he's unable to use it at all.
You would only expect millionaires to have very high GPAs if being a millionaire didn't require anything else.

Slightly more accurately, you would only expect millionaires to have very high GPAs if being a millionaire involves no variables that are independent of GPA. For example, let's say that SAT scores and GPA are highly correlated. If the government runs a program whereby they give $1M to everyone who gets a perfect SAT score after they graduate from college, then the mean GPA of millionaires would skew much higher despite the dependent variable being SAT scores rather than GPA.
If that case were decided the other way, it would mean that government had a law that restricting their right to free speech. You will notice that they did not have the right to speak at the funeral, because the private entity running the funeral is not obligated to give them freedom of speech.

It is true that there are exceptions to the "congress shall make no laws ..." part of the first amendment; so by analogy, there might be some exceptions to the GPL's "no further restrictions" clause, but you have not explained why grsecurity falls into any of those hypothetical exceptions.
Better images of the actual list described:

The question is whether "declines" literally means "declines", or it's code for "breaks".
Lightning network design is akin to tacking a vacuum tube communication system onto the outside of a defunct slow steam locomotive rail system.

It's nonsensical, because you might as well just design an entirely new protocol and token network (which is essnetialy what the lightning network is, and there's no reason to tie it to an existing cryptocoin ledger unless you're trying to improve the antiquated design which coincidently you have coin units in).
No, Google Drive is sold as a customer-facing service and customers have a basic expectation that it will do what it says on the box. If the Dropbox application didn't run, I'd be pissed too, even if it does happen to be "online storage".

If someone was complaining that an Amazon S3 application was broken, that would be a different story.
But that's not what they're saying. If you read their statements on the subject you'll see that they explicitly permit redistribution under the rules of the GPL.

What they will do is terminate your contract and you will not receive further updates.

There GPL does not mandate that you receive updates to anything. All it says is is that no restrictions can be applied on the source code that you have received.
It changes nothing for ethics. It's a discipline shaped by the human emotions, and those don't change depending on our free-will (whatever meaning that word even has).

Is anyone good at estimation? What professions? And why do we only speak of bad estimation when it is negative (i.e. over budget, late). To me being wrong on the other side (under budget) is equally worse, setting aside or acquiring additional resources for a project that were never used (lost opportunity, waste of money).
Progressive is something like income tax. If you earn more than $X, you will pay more than base rate on what's more than $X. Like US tax brackets - 10%, 15%, 25%, 28%, 33%, 35%, and 39.6%.

Atlassian pricing is the inverse of that, if the US does that, it will be like 39.6% for income up to $9000, then 35% up to $37000 etc.
Both times friends of mine with shell accounts tried the last kiddy exploit.
First time they fessed up they'd tried it and said it didn't work, the second time apologised for causing the box to reboot.
I would say that having high grades has no correlation with business success. The required traits and skills for the two things are vastly different. (Think Tesla vs Edison, and Wozniak vs Jobs).

Sure, if you measure it across the entire population, it might appear that there's some correlation between academic success and being a millionaire, but if you measure it within the people who are already smart enough to get into universities, the correlation is probably non-existent, or might even be negative.

> The issue is with the apps and the fact that he's trying to sync over 700GB via a 32-bit app.

You make it sound like some kind of fundamental truth of computing that it would break.

The sync process is ~1 file at a time. It doesn't need to keep the entire database in (virtual) memory.
What do you do for a living? Did you come from a wealthy family or did you earn your millions? I think your point makes a lot of sense but I also think that "a little luck along the way helps" more than most people think.
