I made good money in the compiler business by catering to niches that were completely ignored by the other vendors, large and small.

I'm also happy to get any accessibility problems in dlang.org and digitalmars.com fixed, if anyone wants to notify me of any problems.
I don't think there's anything wrong with that. It's pretty common in the US to have cities where the principle city is just a small portion of the whole metro area, and it's common to refer to the whole area by the name of the city. Los Angeles is another prominent example. I live in NoVA and whenever people ask me where I live, I say "DC" and then clarify if they're interested in detail.
Yet no mention of Wag the Dog.
Tribalism seems to be encoded in the genes of every primate species on the planet, so it's not that surprising. In our past, every time a line dividing tribes was erased, we drew a different line.

This is just speculation on my part, but the only way we'll achieve cohesion as a species is if/when we encounter intelligent alien life. We'll still be tribal, but at an interplanetary level.
I wonder, is TCP generally integrated in ethernet chips, or is it mainly software ?
"After delivering 25,051 vehicles during the first quarter" ... they delivered 22,000 vehicles in the second quarter.

That sounds like a 12% decline to me. It sounds like a 12% decline to Goldman Sachs. I am not sure what you call it.
Has anyone tried this and Fish? How do they compare?
There are certainly plenty of ways it could be improved. Delaying focus stealing if a key has been pressed in the last 500ms or so would be a good start.

Good point. I updated the link.
Rendering CSS from javascript is not new nor unique and in my opinion not "a mess". Hell, rendering domain-specific declarative languages in programming languages is not new or unique.

This tool isn't even "putting CSS in javascript", it's putting CSS interfaces as first class interfaces on JSX.
The whole controversy about Trump telling the Russians too much concerned the intelligence I am referring to. This, and the general existence of intelligence about progress by jihadis towards a laptop bomb attack, has been widely covered by just about every news outlet. It appears that an Israeli intelligence agent or asset was involved in uncovering the threat. The lack of public details is presumably to protect the cover of this agent or asset. I realize that government secrecy isn't popular around here, but the hostility to even this very obviously justified use of it is surprising.
It reminds me of that game Papers Please.

Freedom and rights are wonderful things. But as I see them used to justify censorship, I can't help but think that's exactly what's happening: they're being used.

I don't know about you, but I rather resent being used, and I won't have it.

We need our serious dialogue. We are undertaking a revolutionary project, realigning the way the sexes relate. The changes of the last century have been enormous. It is arrogance and folly to think that the monotone wisdom of one political perspective is all we need to guide us through such a storm. We need diversity and respect for opposing opinions. We need to gather wisdom from all experiences and backgrounds, and build something excellent.

LIGO is an interferometer. Light is made to interfere with itself. You can't integrate results from other LIGOs to recover the Z dimension because you'd be missing the requisite opportunity to interfere light traveling across that arm with light from the others.
Interesting point. Before the theory of gravity was formulated, planets were still behaving the same way. Then when Newton said F = Gm1m2/r^2, and we came up with equations to define exactly how they move, does that mean planets started doing arithmetic? Did they start solving differential equations that describe their motion?

I think ultimately it means that "doing arithmetic / doing math" are defined by the observer rather than the doer. True for any abstraction - the brain does exactly what it does, then to ask if its doing "abstracted task X" is not really meaningful from the perspective of brain, the abstraction in the first place is a mental construct we create.
The issue is that some (actually, most!) of the logics you can reason about are not decidable.
So, it is hard to have a sense of progress towards a goal.
Yeah, that old lightbulb is so dim that it's basically completely useless. Even if it lasts 300 years, I don't want it in my house. I want lightbulbs that can actually illuminate a book well enough to read the words.

It's hardly a conspiracy. You can keep an old car running forever, but I want a car with air conditioning, power locks, Bluetooth, ABS, power steering, variable valve timing, and good gas milage. All of those things are complicated systems that are expensive to repair and break easily. Doesn't mean the older car is better or newer cars are a rip off.
I actually disagree a little bit. I think too many people could possibly drive demand for more development in space. Instead of Mars, what we really should be doing is mining the Moon and the asteroids, and building gigantic rotating space stations. Theoretically, we could house a nearly infinite number of people that way, with artificial habitats optimized for human living unlike the planet we're on now.

Population stagnation could potentially lead to worldwide cultural stagnation, which would result in humans never getting off the planet and eventually getting wiped out somehow.

Thinner and lighter are not purely cosmetic (although I think Apple overvalues them) -- laptops are meant to be carried and therefore being smaller/lighter are actual benefits. Even if they were purely cosmetic, however, there is actual engineering required to do them. The laws of the universe don't go, oh, you only want to make a cosmetic change, therefore you can get X into this space/thermal profile without any other tradeoffs.

User-serviceable parts are better, all things being equal. But all things aren't equal. You're trying to mandate tradeoffs for everyone else, and I don't think you understand everyone else's tradeoffs well enough to do that.
> Attacking this woman would be very stupid unless they are actually in the wrong

Or unless they think they are very right. I find them opening their mouth at all to be quite surprising. I find the firing with a reason given even MORE surprising.

This is either complete and total incompetence (not at all impossible), or the Tesla lawyers must think they are on amazingly solid ground.
Putting them together is AMAZING. So when I used to do Java development I thought the organization was great but every time I had to find a unit test I had to dig through a folder structure.

Then I tried GO. GO puts them together. I was amazed at how such a simple concept could keep my code so much better organized. I could immediately open both the code and the unit tests for said code. Just don't put a ton of files in any one directory (if you have a lot of files in a directory you're actively coding it I'd argue your file structure is not optimal).

Now when I do JavaScript development I have adopted 3 extensions:

- .aspec.js is for unit tests that should work in all environments

- .nspec.js is for unit tests that only work in node.js

- .cspec.js is for unit tests that only work on a client like a web browser

If you're board you can poke at some of my open source projects that use this pattern https://github.com/KrisSiegel/msngr.js
I am more shocked sites like Amazon/eBay allow users to link to third party sites, what if they decided to change it to porn or something if they got hacked? I am surprised they don't download and rehost the images themselves...
Sure. I didn't interpret it that way but that's fine. I still think we need fewer people and we really need to find a way to get something like the 1-child policy reimplemented in high growth areas. Especially if we're going to sit on our hands with respect to global warming. An increase in the number of people leads to an increase in the consumption of resources. Unless we're adding more people that produce more resources than they consume, we're causing a problem with a sustainable civilization. We need lower numbers of people concentrated in different areas, and much more of the planet returned to nature and to be used for mining, natural parks, sustainable farming, and entertainment (skiing etc...). Going to the national parks is already getting more difficult each year. Home prices aren't going to go down unless something bad happens, as more people move in. The price of water is already artificially low. I could go on and on.

And to add, it's a problem that wealthy people aren't having children, because they are in the best position to educate and provide for them.
Haha you'll enjoy the book, then.
I'm leading the Ballerina language design. The team has about 15 engineers working on the runtime (and related tools) and about another 15 folks working on the browser-based composer and the IDE plugins.

Ballerina's design point is to be a language with semantically equivalent text and graphic syntaxes. Its not a "visual language" really .. its a language with alternative syntaxes, one text and one graphic.

That approach eliminates the "hit-the-wall" phenomenon of visual languages. And as other commenters have said, a lot of the graphical view is useful to understand overall structure and less to write lots of code. However, parallel code is much better visualized graphically as sequence diagrams are dead simple to grok.

In terms of speed of the current Composer .. still WIP. Help is welcome :).
Why do I as a private citizen need to know more detailed information about this? What can I possibly do as a private citizen with intelligence about terrorists planning to use laptop bombs on planes? My government has taken the action it deems appropriate to defend the country and its citizens, while still protecting the cover of the agent or asset that gave us the intelligence.

Not to be a nay-sayer, but I would use IPython for almost all of the tasks I saw mentioned in the Elvish docs.

Python was originally developed as a shell language for the Amoeba distributed operating system. ( https://docs.python.org/3/faq/general.html#why-was-python-cr... )

I find with the addition of the IPython "shell magic" I can easily do anything that doesn't fit e.g. Bash (for my skill level of course.)
Right.. There are brains larger than ours with less intelligence.
It might see, but then you are immediately blacklisted by most major studios. No wonder why you didn't see Penelope Cruz or Javier Bardem for some years in a Hollywood movie.
In fairness the code is live-editable and so you can figure out what it means by changing it and seeing how the output differs. (mb means margin bottom).
No.

The feature size is 7nm. That's like saying the tightest radius in your CNC mill's tooling is 3mm. The stuff you make is far larger. Just look at the SRAM area: it's .0269 square microns. And SRAMs are tiny compared to "gate" RAMs, like you'd see in a book.

I would go and play safe, make a family, enjoy the wealth and secure your children's future and in the mean time experiment with your ideas since the (spare) money will be there for your entrepreneur adventures. If you are single it makes sense to go and work at Google, but if you are planning for family and a calm and stable life ,the ceo job( an the money that come with that) will secure those, at least for a couple of years. I always go safe, live minimal and put family values first. Good luck!
For all that RSS is "dead", it sure still seems to be everywhere. A few big-name sites like Twitter shut their feeds down, sure. Out in the rest of the web, I can't think of the last time I looked at a site or a blog that didn't have a pretty usable feed.

That may be good for one individual business, but not good for the segment of the population that's disabled.

For example: restaurants. Take a world where restaurants have to comply with ADA regulations versus a world where it's expected that someone coming up with a business plan for a restaurant that caters to the disabled. It's the difference between a world where the disabled can go to restaurants or where they can got to a restaurant.
This satirical article kinda nails it:

Thanks for your polite, well-thought reply. I used to be more pro-immigration/open borders but have since swung the other way. I'm glad that you (as I was) are open to new ideas. The mantra right now is immigration == good. Whenever something is taken to be true, such as that, I question the prevailing wisdom and ask, what if this weren't true? Or better yet, who is this good for? How does this help me in particular, or people in a similar situation? Etc....

Cheers!
You should first define what actually means "understanding the brain" before you try to answer this question.

Does "understanding of the brain" mean, that we can construct or simulate a brain? An artificial brain, which reproduce our intelligence and consciousness?

There is no reason to believe, that we can't do this.
A brain is part of our world, governed by physics.

However, we will never be able to understand the thought process down to each individual activation of the neuron.

That's like trying to "understand" and follow the movement of each atom in my coffee next to me.

Most people aren't interested in decentralized peer discover because it doesn't cost much in bandwidth and it doesn't need low latency.

AFAIK the only benefit of decentralized peer discovery is to be resilient to censorship.
That a natural thought, but there are several complexities that make it unusual (possibly even unlikely):

For instance, infrastructure is a fixed cost. All the investment into roads, power grid, rail, airports, waterways, etc is now spread over fewer people.

Since public projects are usually debt funded, that usually means that fewer people have to shoulder the same debt burden.

When more of a person's income goes to servicing debt, then by definition, there is less for savings and investment. Less investment usually leads to less growth.

And here is where Japan is unique - they have managed to adjust to the debt servicing, and get better at allocating their investments to provide for a growing GDP per capita. Even more interesting is that their growth per capita in the first part of this century outstripped both the US & Germany (http://www.economist.com/node/10852462) - and the US was in a Fed-induced bubble at the time!
1a. .pdf is a fine format.

1b. unless -- as is increasingly the case these days -- you're reading it on a screen smaller than the one for which the .pdf was designed, in which case .pdf is an awful format.

2a. .epub is a fine format.

2b. unless you're reading it in a viewer-app which is wonky, which most of them are. (the inconsistencies of rendering with this so-called "standard" are unbelievably bad, and seem to be getting worse rather than better as time goes on.)

3a. when you try to re-use text by copying it out of a .pdf, you often get some really bad stuff that loses a lot of important styling.

3b. when you try to re-use text by copying it out of an .epub, it's not much better.

4a. the standard line is that an .epub is just "a website packaged into a .zip file", implying that anything you can do on a website can be done in an .epub.

4b. the standard line is a lie. an .epub requires .xhtml rather than .html, and a complex mess of associated files, and most .epub viewer-apps have trouble supporting the full gamut of .css, and also do not allow you to use javascript at all.

conclusion: the state of sharing documents on the web in a way that allows offline use while enabling the convenient re-use of text is a sad state indeed.

It may be controversial but it's not baseless speculation. It's a thing economists study, though apparently they've been unable to agree:

It can try to; but it will fail to parse, usually (both macros and new-style syntax extensions go through a sort of re-parse step)

Old-style (AST-based, unstable, will go away) syntax extensions can do this.

But this isn't relevant, the compiler can define custom syntax extensions that do whatever it wants :)
You can get exhaustiveness checking in some cases in TS by adding a default statement to a switch and assigning the value to type 'never'. This is a bit cumbersome, of course, and the fact that it's opt in partly defeats the purpose. You typically want to check exhaustivity to get more safety, but there the safety only comes if you add it in manually so everywhere you forget you lose safety.
One fun fact about EUV lithography that I learned recently: the masks and optics all work by reflection, since EUV photons aren't very "optical"-- you either have a thin film that EUV ghosts right through, or a thick film that stops it. Changing the type of atom doesn't much matter, there's not really anything akin to a pigment for energetic photons that's also thin enough to be used for nanometre lithography.

But EUV doesn't like to reflect much, either, so the mirrors are made of stacks of metal films, which absorb a lot of the light and need active cooling. So that's the reason EUV sources have to be so much brighter than LUV sources: the optics eat most of the light getting it to the wafer.

EDIT: elaborating on UV optics.
function calculatePaymentAmount(payment) {
if(typeof payment.payByCard != "number") throw new Error("payment.payByCard=" + payment.payByCard);
if(typeof payment.cardFee != "number") throw new Error("payment.cardFee=" + payment.cardFee);
if(typeof payment.payByCash != "number") throw new Error("payment.payByCash=" + payment.payByCash);
if(typeof payment.cashDiscount != "number") throw new Error("payment.cashDiscount=" + payment.cashDiscount);

if(payment.payByCash <= 0 && payment.cashDiscount != 0) throw new Error("payment.payByCash=" + payment.payByCash + " payment.cashDiscount=" + payment.cashDiscount);

return payment.payByCard + payment.payByCard * payment.cardFee + payment.payByCash - payment.cashDiscount;
}

When an error is thrown, a core-dump should be generated, logged, and a developer notified, and the app should restart. The compiler can only catch so many bugs.
A key takeaway from this blog post is the important of communication skills. Be a professional in the workplace. Be sincere with your colleagues and avoid passive aggressive behavior. If you have an issue with a colleague, take it to them first before lodging a complaint with their manager.

So in effect you have - someone saying that someone told someone else this. That's hardly counts as a credible intelligence. That's what I would third-hand news. It's like the children's game of "Telephone."

This is a rather disingenuous argument. You're making a big fuss about heavy.com linking to WaPo, but why not just disregard the heavy.com article and look at the WaPo article? Further, it's pretty standard for news reports concerning intelligence matters to originate from anonymous sources.
Show HN: 3D Modeling Timelapse
What's amazing is that people do those kinds of jobs for years and years.
I think they have to be considered with respect to people's relative purchasing power. Ensure that if the velocity of money goes down that people's relative purchasing power remains equivalent.

In other words, if making things more durable results in people working fewer hours, then we need to know whether that results in negative income repercussions for workers.

A rudimentary example:

1x disposable widget took .5hrs to mfg. market price =$10 and lasts 1yr. CO = $10/yr

1x durable widget takes .6 hrs to mfg. market price =$50 and lasts 10 yrs. CO = $5/yr

And you extrapolate that...

So, yes, your costs go down over time, but so do your wages, so the deflation has to be measured so that earnings don't go down quicker than cost of living/cost of goods and services. Commensurate.
Maybe you should read it? The patterns are unmistakable.
