Lot of technical books are short. 150ish pages.

And the more you read the faster you get: you don't decipher every word. You notice a standard structure and get the meaning. That's why reading things written by a foreigner can be slower.

And honestly after some time you learn to not read useless paragraphs: read the first, read the last, if it is mainly the same thing you can forget about what's in-between. The worst offender is LotR: song? Pass; character description? Pass 5 pages.
What I was talking about was the question of being accused of theft (by having completed an order/purchase after lowering the price). This was also in the context of someone already intending to push a transaction with an attempted price change. At that point nothing you do with the price is going to prevent a "hacking" charge if there's going to be one, but you may be able to prevent a corresponding "stole from us" charge.

You always have chromium also don't confuse security awareness with privacy concerns.

Chrome is more secure this means that you have less of a chance having your data compromised including any and all data on your machine by an unknown 3rd party.
Since Chrome's data collection is known it can be incorporated into a simple threat model.
You know what is collect and who collects it, most security aware people will be OK with Chrome collecting some metrics that in all fairness are likely to be collected anyhow unless they block every JavaScript and Cookie on the planet, do no use any Google service or a service that uses GA in exchange for not having to worry about their browsers being pwned.

Hehe, seems like we can help fill in the gaps together :) I've only started digging into FRP, and never dug into the internals - but I'm using it on a production project now.

As you may have come across for your homework - Conal Elliot (the author of FRP) and Stephen Blackheath (the author of Sodium) point out that there are important differences between true FRP and pseudo-FRP. For example, Stephen demonstrated some missed opportunities and bad decisions around Rx that lead to actual bugs (or at least strange quirks). He brings some of these in his book on FRP. I'm not sure if those have been resolved, but essentially I believe it has to do with how the system tracks "continuous time" and guarantees ordering.

I've used React on some webpage type stuff, but I can't really see how that would work for video games (even with bidirectional binding, seems to me like it would get super messy real quick). More practically, the reactive part of React is solely centered around props and state. If you want to drive the core logic (i.e. the things that affect props and state) you need to sprinkle in some other library. Conceptually, I guess Sodium could be used with React the way one might use Rx or Promises or Observables etc. but 1) they are different implementations/assumptions and there might be some important disconnect 2) if you're already doing that then you're really just using React for the vdom and there might be a better solution out there. For webpage type stuff though, I wouldn't sweat it - React is great with the ability to use JSX and benefit from a smart VDOM, all of which understands html semantics.

No doubt the community here can answer this better than myself - it might be worth looking into why React never really worked well for writing games and even just as a view layer (like React-pixi) never really took off. I assume there are solid reasons for that due to React's otherwise popularity, in addition to my thoughts here ;)

In general I don't see the connection between the size or number of dependencies and how easy they are to evolve. Truly tiny libraries like left-pad have trivial implementations. Why not just inline them into your project? Then they're no longer libraries, just functions. You get the abstraction benefits, but you don't need to enter into a counter-party relationship with the author.

At scales above the absolutely trivial I think libraries evolve more flexibly based on social rather than technical considerations. It's about not pissing people off when you change the interface. Even something as complex as Go was able to make incompatible changes pre-1.0.
It is not sad, it is Microsoft playing the right moves to stay relevant, instead of joining Sun, DEC, Wang and many others that were once upon something great.

Look at SGI and Cray, they also had to re-invent themselves around their own distributions of GNU/Linux and tailored made hardware, instead of keep selling their own UNIX variants.

If I have to develop on UNIX-like OSes, but can still enjoy all the nice Microsoft tooling I have grew to love, then great.

Love or hate it, FOSS around UNIX has commoditized the OSes.

Who knows if now we will ever move away from a UNIX monoculture on the enterprise, specially with the increasing Linux / OS X love from Microsoft side.

Somewhat off-topic, but I just realized (maybe because I'm a non-native speaker and barely ever use applications which have icons for "copy" and "paste") that "clipboard" in software and physical "clipboards" are two entirely unrelated concepts for me. So much so that I only just remembered that the paste icon represents a physical clipboard rather than simply some abstract brown rectangle with an abstract white rectangle on it.

EDIT: Maybe it doesn't help that in German Windows calls the clipboard the "Zwischenablage" (temporary storage) whereas the German word for "clipboard" would be "Klemmbrett" -- the German version actually seems to use a more abstract concept rather than the same direct metaphor as in English. Weird.

> This seems to me as some kind of defeat and that makes me sad. It's sad for me to look how great companies grew old

Your sadness is misplaced.

Presumably you like resilience, yes? How does one achieve resiliency? At least in part via redundancy. A homogeneous environment, which an environment which relies on one vendor is, is non-redundant. All you've got then is a single point of lock-in, that can never be a good idea. You can be held hostage to the whims of the vendor. As soon as Linux became a viable choice to Windows and old Unix people left in their droves, and for this very reason.

To my mind, Microsoft is now acting like a more mature rational hungry company. I thought I'd never see the day. And frankly, if they hadn't started changing they'd be on the road to complete irrelevance.

> This way they could lose SQL Server customer and Windows customer at the same time

False. See https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14845783 Staying with SQL Server because Linux version was provided.

> I believe this wouldn't have happened 10 years ago, and moreover, it would have sounded just unbelievable.

Agreed. But that was not a good thing, that was very bad. For Microsoft, and their customers. Now that may have been something to lament.
You also don't plan to touch Haskell, OCaml, async/await patterns, RX, given that they all have influence from Microsoft Research?
Your complaints are stupid.

You complained that cropping and resizing were difficult. When confronted by the fact that they weren't, you went to "oh it changed the defaults." Then you complain about being unable to Uninstaller it when it's uninstall process is like literally every other application.

A friend once presented me with a model of thinking about work and time. Categorize all tasks on two scales: how much you like doing something, and how good you are at it. Now, draw a square and break it into four quadrants. One will be "good at it, but don't like doing it". Another will be "Good at it, and like doing it". The remaining ones are "Bad at it, but like doing it" and "Bad at it, and don't like doing it".

Assuming you have resources to hire help and outsource, consider doing the following:

For things you like doing that you are good at, make that your main job. You will be effective and happy.

For things you don't like doing and are bad at, outsource. If you try doing these yourself, you will be miserable, and the outcome will be sub-par (you're bad at it!).

For things you like doing and are bad at, make that your hobby.

For the things that you don't like doing but are good at, either do them yourself or outsource, depending on your time availability and resources to hire help.

I've been doing this for a few years as much as possible. Even at home, my wife and I naturally divide chores along these lines.

Then you haven't read enough Dostoevsky :)

I think he's one of the most empathetically evocative authors there was - by the end of crime and punishment if you can't identify with Rodion Romanovich Raskolnikov, you've assuredly missed a beat.

That said, context is all - and it's helpful to also read his contemporaries, understand Russian history of the time on a broader scale (this too one can acquire from books), and then follow through on the trajectory of thought and feeling with the likes of Solzhenitsyn and Bulgakov, before landing at the post-glasnost world with Pelevin and Kurkov.
1. Filecoin is the monetization layer for IPFS; on IPFS you never store stuff you didn't agree to store. So there won't be 3D printed gun designs, porn and other illegal media on your drives unless that's what you wanted.

2. Filecoin enables a transparent market for storage with bids and asks for storage, so you'll know what you're paying compared to AWS, Azure, etc. and you can decide what to do.

3. I'm on Comcast; if some guy two towns over from me is running his Filecoin-enabled IPFS node also on Comcast, there's going to be less latency than hitting an AWS or Google data center thousands of miles away.

4. My DigitalOcean droplet is ~200 miles away from me; trace route says it's 10 hops away. I can see the network name for Comcast two towns over from that's just 4 hops away. The other guys may be big but they can't change the speed of light.

5. Because IPFS is content addressed, I don't need to know where the content I want is located; thanks to the distributed hash table, any node that has that data can respond to my request.

6. IPFS and therefore Filecoin still work even if you can't reach the internet backbone… you can still get stuff via your neighborhood mesh network.

For some context, the Kaiser family foundation's 2016 Employer health benefits survey available at http://www.kff.org/report-section/ehbs-2016-summary-of-findi... suggests that the average in-network deductible for a single worker has increased from $917/year in 2010 (when the ACA was passed) to $1,478/year in 2016 -- not adjusted for inflation. While more people are using high-deductible plans, the growth in any specific plan type (eg, HMO) is about the same.

Without adjusting for inflation, this growth is ~60% growth in 6 years, or a doubling time of ~9 years. After adjusting, it's more like 40% over the same 6 years or a doubling time of ~12 years.

Of course, keeping the token on the same machine that you're using for logging in is reducing the security, but then, the token is stored in the Keychain and once you're at the point where malware is so deeply hooked into the system that it has access to the system Keychain, then it can also inject itself into your browser and get a 2FA token whenever you log in.
