Not in my experience. It's obviously not a distorted generalization of the Hobby Lobby owners themselves, and I think they're very representative of that sub-group of Christians. Not to say that all Christians are like this, not by a long shot; evangelicals are only a fraction, and the far-right-wing politically-active ones like the HL owners are a fraction of that, but they're a really awful fraction.
If anything this, along with similar situation(s?) with Google, should stand as a strong warning against single sign on systems across multiple services with multiple TOS.

>the client would download the index

That doesn't sound like too bad of an idea, given the state of js these days.

Yes, you can cut off irrelevant terms, those with low tf-idf score (the, a, is, are...) or you could filter out stopwords. Or both. Me personally, I would never remove low-scoring terms. Consider the state of the word "is". It's mostly irrelevant, unless you are searching for information about a certain terrorist group.

One small index type (as in number of bytes) is a trie. Another is a huffman tree. They store each term less than once.

The evangelicals here in the US aren't educated enough to know there's any Christians over there. If they are, they probably consider a handful of them getting murdered to be an acceptable price.
Thanks for the reply. Yep, this is a topic that reasonable people can disagree about. I suppose I could add "if there's no loss of user data, recover from the error silently and continue on with the program". An example of #2 would be a network connection failure that can be retried without consequence to business logic.
I think this is a fundamental problem of learning and teaching, especially via text.

It's also that most people who teach just don't have Feynman levels of understanding. Mostly we are all kind of groping in the dark, and we all participate in some kind of cargo cult.

I also think there's a deep problem with how people want to learn math, and other abstract concepts. Look at how frustrated many students get by notions like imaginary numbers, groups, and monads. These things provoke some serious anxiety and confusion because students want to understand what they "really are" in some clear and straightforward way, when really all they are is hard-won abstract definitions that have proven interesting or somehow useful.

In a way it's disappointing that math books need to have "exercises." Why can't they just explain in a comprehensible way? I guess it's because the topics of study are abstract relations that only sometimes have some analogy in the "real world" (of course, some mathematicians believe that the structures of mathematics are in some sense the most real of all)...
Doesn't this require separate gmail addresses? If so, then that's an extremely bad idea. I already had one gmail account completely banned with no notice. I wasn't doing anything abusive -- I used it for some npm projects and a github account.

Actually, is there a reasonable free gmail alternative for situations like this? I'd like to migrate. FastMail is worth paying for, but it's too expensive for one-off side projects. And while I don't trust gmail, I think I trust most services even less.

EDIT: My point was, if you use a single account, it's far less likely to get banned. I think my account was caught in some sort of automated purge, since I certainly wasn't abusing anything. Some proof: http://i.imgur.com/H5RRkyP.png I'm not sure which policy violation they're referring to, but all appeals failed. I lost all emails in that account, which thankfully wasn't very serious because the account was still young.

eropple and drbawb pointed out that you can use plus addresses with AWS, e.g. foo+aws1@gmail.com.

Not difficult - the answer is none of it. But at least you can stop adding to it.

Not sure why this is being voted down. A counterparty in an option agreement can become insolvent. This is typically analyzed under the name counterparty risk.

Much much much less common than a stock going down, but when large counterparties become insolvent, a lot of people start needing to write off big chunks of their positions.
Some domains have been used as shit magnets and you can inherit that mess if you pick it up quickly after it's been dropped.

I wouldn't believe it myself, until it happened to me. I've run small mail servers for various domains for years with only "average" amounts of spam. Then one time I picked up a personal domain of my handle (not this one) which I'd wanted for years and I discovered it finally was free. The moment I setup an mx for that domain I got a firehose of spam coming in to it. In fact it was so bad I had to unreg the mx and leave it for another year before it was worth doing anything email-wise with the domain. Just the bounce processing was driving cpu and bandwidth more than I cared to deal with, even if it wasn't receiving any local mail.
> we need to learn 'the basics' and survive without tools to some degree

This is the wrong approach. There's no way you wouldn't understand math much better with these tools.

I'm hoping that in the future, math will be less about equations and symbols and more about graphing and being able to move around in the spaces described by the equations.

I would draw an analogy with a compiler. After using it for some time, your brain will take on the shape of the compiler and you'll write correct (lol is it ever tho) code without even having to compile it.
me: how do I open a savings account?

James: I´m happy to help you regarding savings account.

James: Select an option:

Other inquiries

Option 1: Links to google.no without a search term.

Option 2: "Chat with one of my colleagues in online bank, or call us at 00000 if you would like to make changes to your savings account."

Option 3: More options that lead to phrases such as "Interest rate on savings account is X %."

Sorry, but this just cements the fact that chatbots are utterly useless.

You can use plus addresses for multiple AWS accounts. They're fine with that.

Multiple gmail addresses is not a bad idea, but a highly supported and recommended setup.
There's always a danger when you rely on outside provider for something that's critical to your business or life. Sometimes you can't avoid it or it's completely infeasible to, but choose carefully.

I see too many companies using AWS for stuff they could fairly easily self-host.
Stories like this are frustrating and a symptom of the impact very large companies can have on multiple facets of our lives.

One possible approach is to keep accounts separate for personal and each business that you are involved with. For example, you probably have at least a separate personal checking account and business checking account. Likewise, it would make sense to have all accounts used for a given business to only be used for that business.

In addition to providing some safety against automated action, division of accounts provides a nice legal line, wherein if a court order requires you to disclose information, you can simply dump everything on the account without touching any of the other businesses or personal documents.

Stymieing this, of course, is companies (Facebook?) that have a policy of prohibiting a single real person from having distinct accounts.
So in other words, you're basically counting down till the point someone posts it on 4chan or another notorious image board somewhere.

Good to know you've written of the $50K, because if those guys decide to mess around with this, that money is basically going straight out the window.
I fail to see the problem here. In a curriculum that takes the joy out of math and attempts to reduce the student's mind to a calculation machines, students employed a calculation machine.

I understand the arguement that math is important, but the way it's taught in America, even at the AP level, is criminal. It boils down to "if you see this pattern, apply these steps" without any effort at going beyond. We teach "how" but not "why", which I think is a common refrain when talking about the American education system, or any test driven education system. Math is a means, not an end.
Used to happen to me all the time. Wondering if I got any Facebook messages, log on, spend half an hour wandering through the news feed. Big time suck.
And if you want toasted bread, don't buy that $5 toaster, but source your own: http://www.thetoasterproject.org/page2.htm
Maybe I was unclear about what I mean with "most of". I meant that in a qualitative way.

I would say that the "99% of the time" implies that the quantity of issues comes from engineering problems of all kinds, and I would agree with you that many educational systems tend to forget to teach people simple craft while focusing on theory.

On the other hand, I would say the 1% is more damaging in nature. That's why I said 'a lot of', because these things will really hurt in the long term, rather than the ton of small bugs that are caused by bad engineering.
Mine was banned with no notice after weeks of work. So I'm just putting this out there as a warning that gmail can crush you at any time with no recourse.
I am deeply grateful that something like WolframAlpha existed when I was taking calculus classes. It helped me soo much. I could make up integrals, solve them and see if I was right, just like that. It even has a function to show step by step solutions of integrals and series. All extremely useful tools to deepen understanding, not to cheat.

I look forward to your blog post on how to run a datacenter without power, internet connections, etc.
This is indeed a very interesting topic. I am working in the area and we get some rule-based models perform as good as neural networks and overall there are good steps:
http://www.srl.inf.ethz.ch/papers/charmodel-iclr2017.pdf

These are models that can be inspected by an expert (or even non-expert) and then analyzed. But I guess that we must go past the neural network hype. At the moment it is very common that if I mention machine learning to people, they correct me and say "deep learning" :)
Students cheat because our society values diplomas more than knowledge.

It's a true problem, but the consequences are not visible yet.
Of course they can - but that is yet another reason to rather rely on multiple gmail accounts if the alternative is a single gmail account.

Heh, I _only_ keep Facebook around because it's the most efficient way to provide images of my daughter to our extended family members. Email is just too unwieldy, with many of our family claiming that they've long since forgotten their account credentials.
This happened to me with instagram.

I reset a password, then they detected "suspicious activity." I clicked "send pin via email" and the email never shows up. I've done it 3 or 4 times over the course of a week + it never works. It's a documented error + FB/Instagram refuse to addres it.

> As much as I'd like to reduce my reliance on "cloud" services, Gmail is one of those that I just can't quit, since they've pretty much solved the spam problem for me.

It's overrated. And like mentioned in this article: it makes regular email delivery unreliable.

For me FastMail has largely replaced gmail. I'm much more happy with them than I ever was with gmail.

And they have an actual support channel.

Edit: the "gmail is the only real option" meme is getting pretty tired. They were clearly the best option 10 years ago, but times have changed. No need to repeat old truisms.
There could still be a massive in the total number of individual cars, though. If you switched from the US average of 2 cars per household to one car for each child under the age of eleven, that would be a drop from 250 million individually owned cars to 50 million individually owned cars.
Back before I switched to fastmail I'd sometimes stop receiving newsletters. Because Google randomly decided the newsletter I've been receiving for ages and never marked as spam is suddenly spam.

Fastmail on the other hand only classifies spam as spam (with way less than one spam mail per month getting through) which for me is far superior to Google's "I have to check the spam folder regularly because anything can end up there"
Why do you see this as a single sign-on issue? Seems to me the issue is over reliance on large SaaS providers. Same things happens all the time to Google users.
If you use a single gmail account, it seems far less likely to get banned. I think I was caught in some sort of automatic purge, since I certainly wasn't abusing anything or using it for much beyond my side projects.

This email hostage situation kind of sucks. Hopefully there's an alternative for scenarios like this.

Someone mentioned self-hosting upthread. I wonder how difficult that is.
It's nice to have a small example of how to compile to LLVM, but the compiler is a bit more limited than what the blog post makes it appear.

It's not quite `a compiler for simply typed lambda calculus', but only for a small fragment without higher-order functions. One currently cannot write lambda terms that take functions as arguments.

I was curious how the compiler represents closures and manages memory, mainly because I'm looking for a small example of how to do garbage collection in LLVM. But it turns out that the parser doesn't allow function types yet and the compiler itself doesn't implement closures yet.
I think it's fueled by a naive idea that paying for closed source software is inherently bad. Actually, it's not necessarily a naive idea, as this specific OP may have weighed the pros and cons and have decided that it's not worth the risk, but I do think there are very wrongheaded cargo cult ideas around this.

We tend to gloss over the fact that when dealing with OSS:

- Project maintainers can leave/change/stop supporting the software and the idea that "since it's OSS, I can just pick up the slack" sounds better in ones head, then it does in practice.

- Even large projects (think Angular) can move in odd and unexpected directions, which in reality simulate a company "going out of business" for all intents and purposes.

- OSS 'support' is great, until it's not. Meaning, if there are plenty of SO questions and answers, it's great, until your specific issue isn't addressed, at which point you're either looking to a third party to pay for support, or you're rolling your sleeves up and digging into a codebase you have no experience with outside of an external API level understanding.

The dirty secret of large successful companies is that they actually pay for software, and the support of that software because they understand that time = money and vice versa.

After using datomic in production, I'd welcome my competitor to use Postgres. I'd even push them to. It's a monstrous competitive advantage for me.

> ...deliver abstract concepts that only really make sense to people who have already grasped/discovered those concepts...TDD is a great example of this

Thank you! I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks this. There's an abundance of articles explaining how to "best" test, usually using an overly simplified example (I'm looking at you, `add(a, b)`). When you try to apply it in the real world, things break down because no one explains how to deal with the icky practical issues.

Despite all these resources online teaching you how to test, I feel that how to test well in real-world scenarios remains tribal knowledge.
"NaCl is an interesting step in that direction. If you could use something like it to protect kernelspace (instead of ring 0), syscalls could be much, much faster."

It's actually partly inspired by how old security kernels work mixed with SFI. The first, secure kernels used a combination of rings, segments, tiny stuff in kernel space, limited manipulation of pointers, and a ton of verification. Here's original ones:

http://www.cse.psu.edu/~trj1/cse443-s12/docs/ch6.pdf

A Burroughs guy who worked with Schell et al on GEMSOS and other projects was the Intel guy who added the hardware isolation mechanisms. They were originally uninterested in that. Imagine the world if we were stuck on legacy code doing the tricks no isolation allows. Glad it didn't happen. :)

Eventually, that crowd went with separation kernels to run VM's and such that market was demanding. They run security-critical components directly on the tiny kernel.

https://os.inf.tu-dresden.de/papers_ps/nizza.pdf

The SFI people continued doing their thing. The brighter ones realized it wasn't working. They started trying to make compiler or hardware assisted safety checking cost less with clever designs. One, like NaCl and older kernels, used segments to augment SFI. Others started looking at data flow more. So, here's some good work from that crowd:

I had a math teacher who agreed. Me and another student sat in the back and we programmed the calculator to do whatever she taught us that day, which she was reviewing it with the other students.

Since we developed the tools, we obviously had an understanding of the concepts and we allowed to use them for homework, and tests and such.

And it kept us from being bored and disruptive, so it worked out for everyone.

Ahh, no this is similar to the process that causes Bonsai to work. Dandelions have a fairly massive root with plenty of reserves to regrow after something eat's the top. Mowing simply causes similar responses as a goat would.

Plants can't move around so they evolved to deal with a really wide range of environments and stuff eating them etc.

So the test is rewarding students with the skills to perform well in real life, instead of only those who have submitted blindly to the outdated traditions taught by those who cannot do.

There is of cause a level where you cannot just copy solutions but those tend to be badly covered by "facts centered" written exams anyway so why not build your exams around the reality that modern tools exist and will be used, instead of testing as if the world had not changed since the teachers left school.
I agree but I think this a more recent development. Specifically as ISIS has been driven out of a number of oil fields in the North of Iraq and lost that oil as a source of funding.

I think the "idolatry smashing" propaganda videos are more selective now as ISIS needs to rely more on the sales of those artifacts for funding due the loss of the oil.
