My completely baseless view is that it's entwined with the relative views towards nudity in both cultures. If I had to guess, the age of Europe has forced cultural views of nudity to shape themselves around the presence of necessary public baths in history. In contrast, the relative youth of the US has meant that said cultrual establishment never caught on because private bathing was possible from the get-go of Anglo-US settlement.
I wonder if YouTube video ads count as "intrusive ads". Because YouTube was the tipping point that made me decide to install ublock origin. I also download Firefox for Android because I don't want my data to be eaten up by video ads when I'm browsing videos.
I can really only hope that this is done in preparation of a truly well designed Mercedes electric car. The cancelled car was a car usually sold with combustion engines, equipped with a Tesla supplied electrical drivetrain. So it was a pretty crummy electrical car.

I had the opposite problem: they were still very low down when they started impacting the other teeth, and as a result they were still rooted in the cranial nerve. I had to wait longer for them to grow out further and impact even harder before I could get them taken out without high risk of facial paralysis. As it was I still lost feeling in one half of my tongue.
The publisher of the information is ultimately responsible for the disclosure of the information. How it is read is of no consequence, as the information has been provided to be read. Certainly, there are issues about resource usage i.e. heavy readers, such as scrapers, but throttling is a perfectly acceptable approach to overuse of resources for both parties, as access is still available over managed resources.

The nature of the original complaint is authorised access to publicly published information. Again, if you do not want people to read publicly published information, do not publish it publicly.

And as a side note - we don't need inappropriate analogies; the web is real, we can discuss the real issue.
F# is based on OCaml, so it has modules similar to Haskell modules independent of Type Providers.

F# Type Providers work in the background _while developing_ to provide types to your solution. In one sense they're just a lifecycle hook to generate code: they create .Net Types and then expose those types to your development environment (ie provide/export).

In practice this means you can give some JSON to a Type Provider, it will create types that match that JSON, and then those types are made available while developing so you get live intellisense and code completion based on the content and its structure through strongly typed .Net objects.

Alternatively, if you're creating some kind of DSL: a custom type provider will allow you to translate your data files into code objects that can then be used for strongly typed interactive scripting. Say, opening CAD files and publishing them to different repos depending on number of objects, auther, etc.

The readme for the project linked in this thread shows them in action :)

Type Providers give huge comfort to working with strange data by seeing all the fields immediately and interactively exploring the data schema. It's also veerrrryyyy cool to write scripts and apps that will simply refuse to compile if their assumptions about their data sources aren't met if you're dealing with third party data, or chaotic production environments, or sloppy cowboy co-workers like myself ;)
Just yesterday on Slack some experienced members were pointing out the workarounds necessary to handle certain challenging abstractions, things which are still being thought about for future versions. It's perfectly valid to admit there are some limitations there which may be too much for some projects.

I don't think the above commenter's claim was any more misleading or vague than your claim. Elm is not a general purpose programming language. It exists for a single and specific use-case, a single design pattern, and this can be fantastic for those who fit their projects into that world. But it is a genuine side-effect of this that there are abstractions the language simply does not make easy or possible as a result of its goals. That's fine, but it can affect some projects -- obviously not yours. There are certain domains for which Elm makes a lot of sense, and others for which it would be the wrong choice.

And Elm as a language is still in search of its ideal abstractions, as they have significantly changed over recent versions, so it's clear that this experience is not unique to the commenter only.

Since Elm is just in its alpha stage, perhaps it is unfair to expect it to be as capable and mature as alternative languages.
JSON Web Tokens Are Now Supported by QEWD.js
Facebook can't really risk changing much to the frontend UI else risk alienating the millions of non-techies out there who use the site because their brothers, sisters, aunts, parents and grandparents are on it rather than because it is hip and trendy.

However there is always backend work that needs to be done: security updates, bug fixes, updating frameworks to work with newer tech, automation / pipelining improvements (since they are working on such a large scale), etc. And that's not even mentioning the business side of things like ads, moderation, etc.
I also never get why these sites don't change gradually. I mean, Slashdot tried - their code was a mess, and it looked really old. But it took them ages to rewrite this, and they did it all in one go. Bam! Community was pissed. Why not move the broken old HTML to standard compliant one section at a time, and clean up things here and there, and maybe introduce a new font, or section images, ... instead of this huge explosion_ Sure it might be more work and might also not be completely doable, but if you do it all at once, you are almost guaranteed to alienate your users. And if you are Reddit or Slashdot, that's what makes you.

To be fair if all ads were as unobtrusive as Google's we wouldn't have a problem.

I think the fundamental issue is that Google's ads are more valuable (because they can target them really well - they literally know what you are looking for), so they don't need to be as obtrusive.

If you just visit a random news site they don't really know what ads to show you (which I guess is why they are more like TV ads - for cars, perfume, etc.) and those adverts are far more speculative and worth less, so they need to be much more obtrusive to earn the same money.

How many dentists have you gone to?
Regularly changing dentists is just a bad idea.

Get a recommendation from someone you know who says they were nervous, chose a particular dentist and now would go to no one else and give that dentist a decent chance.

You need to develop a relationship with one dentist and over time you will become more comfortable with them and they with you.
Everyone can be a little nervous in a new relationship.
They will also have reminders on your card re your sensitive teeth etc.

You are also likely to have fewer procedures as dentists are more comfortable to keep stuff under observation with patients who they know will come back.
Because you're nervous they also will be more likely to go down the advise and keep under observation route especially if your overall decay rate is low.
And that crappy amalgam that looks like it needs replacing?
Your long-term dentist knows it's looked like that for ten years now.
All those kinds of things.

There was never anything wrong with Delphi as long as you staid in Windows land. And even there I would say C# (from the same main guy) destroyed Delphi because the interfaces to MS Office and DirectX etc. where much better and much more advanced.
For legacy systems I would say Delphi is even today a good choice.

> (the upstream Focus depends on proprietary Google stuff, while Klar works without it)

Do you have a source for that? I see this and things like "Klar has the telemetry turned off by default" thrown around everywhere, but then other people again saying that there's no difference beside the name.

And while I assume, the F-Droid devs actual did do some research, I'm not aware of German privacy laws being so strict that proprietary dependencies or telemetry would have to be taken out. (Klar is the localized version for German-speaking countries.)

Also, I was able to use Firefox Focus on my phone and I don't have the Google Play Services installed, which doesn't say much, but that's what I assumed people meant with that.
Oh like I said I have a love-hate thing with C++. Nowadays I mostly do C# and python, with a bit of Java. I only rely on C++ when I have to do brutal per pixel computer vision algorithms.

In most cases you can rely on libraries to do the heavy duty (and then I stick to python or C#) but sometime you have to take the big C++ hammer and try to not hit your fingers with it.

Anyone who claims to understand integer overflow from actual experience, rather than memorizing textbooks, should know that by inspection.

I'd forgive that in a CS grad (possibly) but if someone claimed to have been working in C or other unsafe languages for more than a trivial amount of time I'd be very suspicious.
Here in Norway, where electric cars abound, I've only seen a few electric B's.. Considering the incentives, it's not the price putting people off, it's a combination of the overall value proposition compared to the alternatives and the dedication and support from the manufacturer. This news makes sense in light of that.

I've always seen the B as and attractive alternative to the Leaf, e-golf, Renault Zoë and Hyundai ionic, but it's never received the attention in the form of battery updates, range improvement and general buzz that the aforementioned have. It's basically a large city car (as in size of the car, not the city), and while that makes sense, without the secondary capability of making it to the cabin (norwegians are quite fond of their cabins), it's become a bit of a non-starter. People are then more likely to go for a Tesla (which is an insane value proposition here) or an i3.
You are not using the term "What aboutism" right. My argument isn't about Americans does it also, but rather providing counter argument to op's that it is "unthinkable" to think it would happen in the US or Western Europe.

I also fail to see how Chinese companies has anything related to my argument. Just because Chinese companies were involved doesn't weaken it.

You are seeing things through tinted shades before you even have the chance to analyze my argument. You are framing the argument as China vs US. I am pointing out the flaw in op's argument. See the difference ;). Your reply was rude.

The thing is though that the economic growth came after, and as a result of, the market deregulations and special economic zones instituted by the Deng administration. The founding principles of the CCP has been proven not to work in China, they led to millions of people starving to death and a huge brain drain to the US, Europe, Hong Kong and Taiwan the effects of which are still felt today.

So, I wonder if it's not all ignorance. I just don't see how anyone with access to uncensored history books can give credit to the CCP for the economic growth. Surely they could tell that Taiwan, also a Chinese country, has a far better track record when it comes to economic growth and the well being of their population (not to say that the Kuomintang has a squeaky clean record)?
Self awareness?
Have nothing but absolute rave reviews for dentistry here in Canada. They take great care of you and are always aware of how you're doing and if you're feeling the least bit of discomfort.

The only problem is it's stupid expensive; I get annoyed when my current dentist keeps talking about his yacht. But they're sure trained to provide a high level of care.
Can you source your claims of a cooling period no climate models predicted?

It was a long while ago now, if you had learnt anything before you got there it was pretty much guaranteed that you'd seen either BASIC or C. :)

The internet wasn't what it is now either so most people who had done some coding before were indeed lacking in understanding of the fundamental principles of what they were doing – I know I certainly was. There may have been outliers yet beyond the "I've been playing with code" crew but I didn't meet any.

I'm not at all suggesting it would be good reasoning today, but I think it helps to show that the underlying idea that FP is a good way to introduce people to code whilst ensuring they develop a strong theoretical understanding was true then and should still be today.

Playing Devil's advocate: SMTP has some back-and-forth stateful chatter. With a custom HTTP API, you can authenticate and send an email in a single request. SMTP Pipelining can reduce this problem, but not all libraries support it (e.g. Python's smtplib).
Agreed, I feel like the only real problem with Delphi was/is Embarcadero, at least for many years after Borland exited the picture.

While one can argue about the pricing structure, the problem for me was that how they act and communicate never felt in any way professional, at least up until I left Delphi completely, it might have changed.

Even today, more than a decade later, their website retains the same feeling of being built by the lowest bidder, seemingly without even hiring a translator/copy writer that has command of English.

All of which feels super strange when you peddle a product for thousands of dollars.

I have never seen anything better than Delphi and the VCL for building simple and easily deployed Windows apps,
most everything fails on that second part. While it's a pity events took the turns they did, it's quite astonishing that MS and all their competitors never managed to find a way to easily and robustly deploy simple applications without the need for running an installer or using complicated runtimes.
It would but it's too late for me to delete the comment! #facepalm
Culture labels things, and we are trained with that.
I don't think they could have done that much about the timing, aside from having a general policy announced in advance:

Just a couple weeks ago this "UAHF" thing was something Bitmain saying they would only do if BIP148 resulted in a split chain (which seemed pretty unlikely).

> A QML document defines a scene completely and precisely. You can think of it as pure presentation. Nothing is left to interpretation for the runtime. It will look and behave identically on all platforms and devices. Due to the declarative nature of the language, it is also easy to visualize what the scene will look like by reading the source code.

This is not necessarily what is wanted though. You are thinking like a graphic designer and ignoring accessibility, user preferences and genuine client platform considerations (imagine a web app designed before the advent of smartphones which assumes the presence of a mouse). The way the web works is as a negotiation between the developer/designer and what the user's browser is prepared to present to them (based on how it's been configured).

What of being described here is something a lot more like flash. Which is possibly OK for actual native applications.

"If they didn't care about recycling why would they make people sort their trash in the first place?"

At least in EU, companies can get generous grants for recycling, but there's little oversight, so often "recycling" part is only on paper or small part of total waste. Few years ago there was scandal in Lithuania, because thrash companies put different containers for plastics, glass, organics etc. but everything was collected by the same truck and mixed in the same trunk.

Mercedes, Audi and Jaguar are all pursuing the model X market now. The jag is slated for Q4 2018, and I'm guessing the other three won't be far behind. I think the market in general is a bit fed up with the 'one platform does all' strategy where the manufacturers simply slap some batteries in the boot/trunk, so it seems that the premium marques are finally going for the R&D expenditure for high end first, as Tesla has done.

What a simplistic point of view. People not often say "black people are bad, gays are bad, muslims are bad, women are bad". I am moderator on a national sub on reddit, and it's a very difficult question. A few examples :

- What are you supposed to do with people who think it's unfair that men can be tricked in impregnating a woman and sued for child support ? Is this sexism ?

- What are you supposed to do with people who feel unsafe in a specific neighborhood because of the great concentration of immigrants there ? Is this "muslims are bad" ?

- Is someone against surrogacy a "gays are bad" people ? Or is this legitimate concern ?

- What about people who use IQ per country studies ? Is this racial hate speech ?

And for these examples, we have people who deeply consider all these as "bad", and harangue us mods as people who leave hate speech, yada yada.

Where do facts stop and propaganda start, where does a fast generalization ends and real, systematic hate for a whole group of individuals begin (over a common denominator considered "bad" by PC, because no one will ever harass you or call you hateful if you think people who wear fur are douchebags) ?

And by doing so, you don't allow any discussion, private or not to be made around these questions, as they are directly flagged as "good vs bad" and arguments are an expression of the hate, and not legitimate questions. Which I don't think is good, but that's my own opinion.

> JSON has its own annoyance that the extra comma on the last field will be a syntax error when other languages let you get away with it.

My thoughts exactly. I am repeatedly astounded by the fact that McCarthy thought of something abstract as Lisp syntax in the 50s and yet it did take ages for Algol-derived languages to figure out the comma thing.

The case of JSON especially irritates me since its not only supposed to be easy to parse (and - honestly - allowing an additional comma wouldn't be hard anyway), but easy to generate as well...

Also: You know something's wrong when all your SQL templates look like

SELECT

Just sayin'.
The article accounts for this new data. You might want to see Batygin's post itself here: http://www.findplanetnine.com/2017/06/status-update-part-1.h...

Basically, yes, if you just look at bodies that OSSOS detected, it does not support the Planet Nine hypothesis. If however you consider both what OSSOS found and the already known TNOs, the new picture reinforces the Planet Nine hypothesis (with one outlier TNO that doesn't really fit, although it can apparently be made to).

That said, we also have so many voting booths (I have never not been able to walk to my closest - usually only about 1km away) that the worst line I've ever waited in was probably 10 minutes.
