I wish you could just run ghost locally and then publish a generated static site. I actually much prefer the Jekyll flow to ghost but the core ghost ui and functionality are great for less technical bloggers. It just seems like a waste of time and money to be running a node app to serve what are essentially static pages

A few times I've visualised this as a tech tree like you see in some RPGs and RTS games. I'm not an artist but I'd love to try sketching this out for a few "trees" at some point.
Three common ways of sucking, I find, about cross-platform apps is that they are often slower, more resource heavy and "a bad citizen" on the platform. Not all cross-platform apps falls under any one or all of those things, but many does, in my experience, and those that don't always suck in another way.
I live in Spokane, not terribly far from this area. The scablands really are spectacular and well worth a visit. The Palouse is simply beautiful. Even here within city limits we have impressive cliffs like those described in the article. I've done a small bit of climbing in the past, and these sheer cliffs look to me like they're begging to be climbed, but I've never seen anyone "lured" to them at all.
I wonder if scablands rock is generally "rotten" or if there's some other reason that climbers avoid these structures?

edit: grammar
Various OpenBSD devs have had mixed (at best) feelings about Rust, recognizing it as a language that is by no means a silver bullet for safe code. Part of this was/is also flavored by the fact that LLVM (and therefore Rust) supports only a subset of the hardware platforms supported by OpenBSD.

However, now that OpenBSD is continuing to switch from GCC to LLVM/clang as the default C compiler for an increasing number of targets and as an increasing number of non-LLVM-supported targets are discontinued, I reckon the idea of some or all of OpenBSD being incrementally reimplemented in Rust is - bit by bit - becoming a little less far-fetched. It also helps that Rust is liberally-licensed.

That all said, I'm not really holding my breath for that happening anytime soon. Until then, Redox continues to look interesting.
I've used a fair amount of GUI tookits (including all the ones mentioned by grandparent), as well as written my own. I have to say that I really like Cocoa (particularly UIKit over AppKit) and feel that of everything I've ever worked with, it gets the most right.

Of course, you become bound to a specific platform (I've been meaning to give GNUstep a try, not sure how good it is).
the third fork is https://github.com/btc1/bitcoin which combines segwit and large blocks, afaik they all support segwit - they just differ in how they reach consensus. I don't think anyone is pushing for no change since transaction fees and latency what they are it's pretty clear something has to change.

Also it's built on top of Ethereum Virtual Machine. Quick look at http://ethdocs.org/en/latest/introduction/what-is-ethereum.h..., which calling that a VM from what I read isn't screaming VM to me, more like a distributed computing application.
From my experience ProseMirror is not the easiest editor to get started with, but it gives you a lot of power in terms of customization and flexibility. Recently a more feature rich table module was released, which might come closer to what you expect in case you haven't seen it yet: https://github.com/prosemirror/prosemirror-tables. Once you get the hang of it, implementing custom plugins and behaviors is not that hard. There will be a 1.0 release with more extensive documentation soon, which will make it a lot easier to get started. You can find more information here: https://discuss.prosemirror.net/t/planning-new-documentation.

Apart from that, the maintainer is very responsive and often times issues get fixed in a matter of hours! And the community behind ProseMirror is very helpful and seems to be steadily growing :)

If you're planning to withdraw from Coinbase now, you may already be too late: they're implementing 72 hour withdrawal delays for transactions over some undisclosed maximum (4 figures USD?) unless you submit to some fairly intrusive ID checks to speed things up.

But the fact is that they would probably still be happier if you have served them native apps at the same rate because the native apps probably had been better in some way.

I get that sometimes it's not feasible to built native apps because you have to do the work twice in the same time and so on, but that is completely irrelevant to how good the product is. Is it good enough? That is a different thing entirely.
This is written by the racist woman who, in an AMS blog, was calling[http://blogs.ams.org/inclusionexclusion/2017/05/11/get-out-t...] for all the white men to resign from math departments because somehow they are part of the problem.
It what sense does Bezos lack control?

Being public means that the company is transparent, not that it is out of control.
Wow, not sure what to think of this. Seems like this merely grows the monster that is the C++ specification, yet at the same time I wouldn't mind wiping out all that boilerplate.
They've said in various interviews over the years that access to Jeff is one of the reasons they did the deal and he's weighed in on decisions like renaming the company and changes to their product offerings a few years ago.
I'd been thinking about this technology recently as well, but hadn't gotten any further than perusing data sheets a little.

My impression is that quartz crystals as found in oscillators are so brittle that it's hard to use them for things like this; I guess PZT (lead zirconium titanate) is more robust somehow? There are also polymer-based piezo materials, like PVDF.
It makes me sad that SpaceX, a company that actually invents and makes stuff, is mentioned alongside Uber whose only product is evading taxes and regulations
In my company, it's because half of those packages end up delivered to the warehouse behind the office building, and apparently the warehouse workers didn't like the additional workload.
I didn't read it like that. More the joy of exploring another language.
I agree the the posturing is not the essence of the infection, and didn't mean to communicate that. It does make wading through papers substantially more difficult, however, and that is a sincere and severe annoyance, though the tendency to hoard knowledge for fear of being scooped is a greater one.

Your comment about reagents from one manufacturer failing while another succeeded brings back fond memories of trying to make our own botulinum neurotoxin to study neurons- and the rest about hoarding institutional knowledge reminds me why I tried to get out of that. I was one of those ambitious undergrads, but I permitted myself to wilt under the insanity of a system in which I KNEW that a partnered laboratory knew exactly what to do, but they were forbidden to share the knowledge because of politics. By the time I had cut through the wasteful uselessness, I discovered that the only sane person there, one who had been willing to share knowledge, she had actually DIED.

And so I merrily skipped over to the bioinformatics department, which has issues as well but in which I was able to manage them fairly effectively. :D
If slack is the best, it really goes to show why nobody should be making non-native apps. Slacks Mac client (and their iOS client) is really, really bad.
There are a lot of nice things about Seattle, but I moved away after over a decade because I found that almost never seeing the sun was making me incredibly depressed. Moving to a place that's sunny has improved my quality of life even more than I could have imagined. YMMV.

Seattle has some pros but, of the 9 points listed, 4 of them are wrong - #1-3, as mentioned above, are invalidated by the insane water rates in Seattle. #8 is subjective but this is literally the first time I've ever heard someone say Seattle had a great culture. Edit: Also, the weather in Seattle may be "moderate" temperature-wise but it's definitely not for everyone and the majority of folks would just classify it as "dreary".

Bingo!

Forbes and Fortune, both of which are cited by Wikipedia. A commenter further down questions their methodology.

Honest question - can anyone refute the claim that it is currently not the point in time when the largest share of wealth is in the smallest number of hands?
That is orthogonal to having a smart phone on you 24/7. I trained my friends and family not to expect instant replies (or me always picking up phone calls), but I use the phone also to read stuff, search for stuff, and note down stuff, so I do want it on me all the time.
I also think it's reasonable to assume that a chain split does not mean a market cap split, given that we didn't see this when Ethereum split into Ethereum+Ethereum Classic.

In my opinion, market cap is too superficial to capture what happens in the market. A better measure would be market depth: how many coins can you sell into the market before the price goes to zero? This figure very well might split into two, since otherwise it would require action on part of the market makers, i.e. entering the BCC/USD or BCC/BTC market.
A colleague of mine who wants to play with haskell tried it out and threw it in the too-hard basket - apparently to configure it you write haskell in the config files; not where he wanted to be trying his hand at the language.
I'm curious why you didn't go the other direction: build an accessible web page and then try to make it attractive to sighted people. No need for a template -- just straight HTML with black text on a white background.

I'm not trying to be facetious here. I'm genuinely curious if there are market pressures that make a "good looking" website higher priority than an accessible one -- for example a need to look impressive to stake holders who are not visually impaired.

"We didn't think of that" would be an OK response :-). I'm just curious about the challenges for a startup in this kind of market and where one might have to make surprising compromises.
Not OP, but... yes, I think it is - at least if you use your phone for anything else than just reading trivia and socializing with people.
PSA: If you're considering moving your bitcoin from Coinbase to a wallet you control, and if you store any in the Coinbase vault, it will take 48 hours to transfer from the Coinbase vault to a standard Coinbase wallet. Then you can transfer to an external wallet.
It doesn't take into account surface friction? Those boxes seem covered in soap to me.
Maybe because they don't believe it's the best route to go for them and their users? I'm inclined to agree, although I'd like to see the open web succeed, but I will weep if I have to use web apps instead of native apps for anything that couldn't be a website.

California is the only state in the US where that is legal. I'm guessing serious traffic problems are the reason why.
Their data is obviously broken. If you look at the source, it is "Indeed", which is obviously not an unbiased sample of data.

Let's pick a huge employer in Silicon Valley, Facebook, and search for jobs on Indeed.

Not a single Software Engineer position.

And I really don't think hot San Francisco startups are using Indeed to look for talent, which is why SF falls so low on their rankings
Non sequitur. It means the reasons given by GP for him being a bad fit are flawed.
If you chose Scala for .map(), less noise and functions over Java 7, yes. If you chose Scala for type classes and the power of the type system then no.
This article hit close to home, albeit my contact with a cyberstalker was (thank god) very brief it was a nerve-wrecking experience, to which end I panicked and deleted a lot of accounts and profiles in an attempt to make it harder to track my online activity. I was scared the stalking and harassment would become more personal, "leaking" in to the real world -- but it thankfully did not.

A lot of the (non-technical) internet users probably don't know how easy it can be to link an online identity to your person, be it through handle (nickname) re-use or simply having a pattern of likes and dislikes or hanging out with the wrong crowd. Once the connection is made you have nothing left to shield yourself with and will have to, like the person in this article, deal with it on a daily basis.

I've since grown up a little, grown a thicker hide and conquered my paranoia to a degree thanks to therapy, and have started to comment and share online again but the fear of coming across the wrong person with too much time on their hands still feels chilling to me.

Surprising that Instagram is on no one's list here. I visit Instagram daily.

Japan is low-tech. The lockers are near the mailboxes.

Mailman puts the package in the mailbox which has a keypad and low-tech 1980's calculator style 1 line display.

He put package in locker. It generates and displays a pin-code, he write it down on a slip of paper with the locker number and puts it in your mailbox.

Works very well.

(I think he has to swipe a card to allow him to lock the thing in the first place. To stop random people using it).
This kind of compile-time code is a great substitute for things people currently do with template metaprogramming or code generators.
That, and the very common in my part of the world case, in which you learn that package wasn't delivered because no one was in the apartment, even though you (or your spouse) spent the entire day in the apartment...
really? is that a joke?
> What is the most active secondary market for [SpaceX stock]?

The secondary markets for private securities trade "over the counter" [1]. There is thus no singular "market" which could be said to be the most active. (If you're looking for a more-actionable response, feel free to pop up your email.)

Most German dogs are trained in German as well, so the "security through obscurity" aspect is probably more of an afterthought. My personal guess is that an influential dog trainer happened to be German and followers of the method adapted the commands without translating them. Unfortunately I couldn't find out who that might have been.
I absolutely love them. They solve the problem of coordinating delivery times by... just letting me choose the pickup point that's active 24/7, so I can visit it e.g. at 9 PM while coming home from work. I always use them if I can (so sad I can't with Aliexpress :().
Yep! I still have my i7 2600K running at 4+ GHz and Ryzen is the only thing that has made me even consider upgrading.

You know it's bad when the Dow Jones Industrial Average is outperforming desktop Intel CPUs in annual gains.
Thanks for reminding me, a series I completely missed out on. Time to revisit them.

How much latency are we talking about here? I can't imagine how latency would affect typing..

Agreed, but again, how much latency are we talking about here? The projects I've used VSCode on have never had latency issues.
It's possible he learned a few words, given that the act of Henry the Eighth divorcing his aunt (Catherine of Aragón) sent shock-waves through Europe.
I like the flexibility that this feature adds. However I find that C++ is hard to use without good IDE support and it looks like this feature will not be properly supported in IDE's for very long time.
Comparing SpaceX with Uber is like comparing apples to oranges.SpaceX may be inventing stuff but Uber solves a common problem for everyone around the world. I don't need to think twice about going from point A to point B without much hassle. And coming to the invention part, I believe rocket science is as much difficult as serving million requests concurrently and consistently without affecting user experience anywhere in the process. If Uber's product is evading taxes and regulations, then Google's products are just trying to make you click on some random ads.
As a fellow hacker, you know what hard problems i am trying to talk about and we should respect that. I agree uber has some problems internally but they don't deserve to be disrespected.
Are they trying to catch up to Rust while maintaining backwards compatibility? Or what?

C++ needs the full definition of a class, including its private members, before you can use its methods. This is a huge dependency headache. Most later languages have interfaces or traits or something to decouple class definition and interface definition. This looks like an attempt to deal with that. Of course, this is a retrofit, so it's going to be messy.

C++ has a lot of baggage. It may have exceeded its excess baggage allowance. The basic problem with C++ is that it has heavy encapsulation without memory safety. No other language has that. Either nothing is hidden, as with C, or the language is memory-safe, as is almost everything since C++.
Even without owning one's own home, not all areas have high rent, even within the same state. California, for example, has a pretty big swing in rents between the Bay Area and even Sacramento, let alone somewhere further north or south in the Central Valley.
I think we might be of the PHP age :P when it was good enough to actually use it, but still widespread enough (e.g. no alternatives) that it was necessarily the first thing that you did.
Life Inside Hong Kong’s ‘Coffin Cubicles’
But to circle back to the original topic - if users would be much happier with 100/100 instead of 80/100, then Apple's refusal to allow developers to achieve 90/100 with the same effort is crippling user happiness.
It says from any carrier.

To receive from the usps, among other things, you must have an address, a approved mail receptacle and a safe and secure location.

The "space" in the mailbox is protected and is virtually owned by the usps.

I could not deliver to a box that is not postal approved. I suspect the missing piece of info is an agent would have to palce a parcel into a Hub locker. Like the ups store does today.
7 New Programming Languages That You Should Know
Not only is it a fork of the software, it is a fork of the blockchain. Traditional alt-coins fork the software but start over with their own blockchain.
The two things that have helped me write clean GUI code the most are having some sort of event bus and following the MVVM pattern. The event bus helps you to decouple various parts of the UI, like when a certain menu item has to be disabled by certain data. MVVM let's you embrace the inherent statefulness of UI's and to test them.

Both add a fair bit of complication in the short term but reduce it when the app gets bigger. Neither seems to suffer from the performance/correctness trade off that other methods (like forcing every minor change to redraw the UI) often have.
If you like clojure, I think you'll find that the clojurescript tools like reagent are among the simplest ways to build interfaces you'll find in any language. I've been using swift, C++, JavaScript, Elm, clojurescript, and others the last few years to build really nice user interfaces, and clojure is by far was the best.
While bitcoin abc is the main bitcoin cash implementation for now, the plan is to have multiple "independent development teams" for BCC [https://www.bitcoincash.org/].

It is true that BCC will be a continuation of the original chain, and it is also true that in some substantial sense bitcoin cash can be said to be a continuation of the original bitcoin blockchain and incentive model to a greater degree than bitcoin core will soon be, as bitcoin core moves over to segregated witness with a "block weight cap" rather than "block size cap".

I therefore rate MichaelBurge's sentence "BCC is not actually a fork but is the original chain/software, isn't it?" as false (it is a fork), true (it is a continuation of the original chain), and true (it is a continuation of the original software).
It does happen at times, but it's very arbitrary if and when it happens.

I like SmartPosti parcel boxes as well, especially how I can select the delivery target that most suits my route and schedule. I usually use one that's close to my work in a mall so I can do some groceries while getting my packages.
Alexandra Elbakyan's work is one of the most positive and important things to happen in the last 3 decades in the field of science, which has been gradually losing its luster due to the bastardization and devaluation of the field by politicians and salespeople using it like hucksters.

Elbakyan's work has inspired me to only publish my work in jornals that embrace open access and open data. I'll be damned if I am a slave to impact factor and other haughty metrics.
> I don't know what that link is, but after 10 seconds of loading over LTE I gave up in favor of my data bundle.

The whole thing is 283 kB and half of that is due to three small images that are already compressed as much as is possible (but that are actually part of the comment about the paper formatting, not the paper itself).

That seems very reasonable for a scientific paper which would have been about the same size as a PDF.
I deal with lots of devices we put on customers networks. The problem is that 172.16.0.0/12, 10.0.0.0/8 and 192.168.0.0/16 are all used by customer networks. It's a pain when setting up VPN addressing. Thus I chose 11.0.0.0/16 (sadly not possible to use IPv6). My devices will never need to reach DoD, so that's very convenient.
