Does Comcast cache websites thru public IP Address as a way to “boost” speeds?
One of my customers recently updated their main website. I visited the site from my office and got the new, updated site (the office is not on Comcast). I later went to the same site from my home WiFi using the same browser and the old site came up. I switched to incognito mode and still got the old site from my home computer. Back at the office today, and the new site comes up.

Seems kind of shady if Comcast promises "the fastest internet and download speeds" when in reality, they're not really connecting to the latest version of a site--am I misunderstanding what is happening here?
Groupware is a somewhat well-defined category of software that's somewhere in-between a social network and a wiki. You typically see it deployed to support enterprise activities. Here's a wiki page:

> Imgur had DEFINITELY gotten WAY worse than even a year or so ago

There is vicious cycle with all image hosting services and Imgur(and Photobucket) has reached the last step:

1. Notice all other services are filled with ads and full of bloat

2. Create new, free and very simple image uploading site

3. Site gains popularity

4. Operating costs go through the roof

5. Try to monetize by adding ads or move to paid accounts

6. goto 1
A quick search on interwebs yielded this advice,

Thanks, that's a wonderful example.

I keep hearing that gaming comes up with interesting case studies, but rarely specifics such as this.
I find I work better at night as well. I have a hunch this is due to the lack of distractions. One doesn't get many useless shoulder taps, phone calls, or IMs at 3 in the morning.
innovation is relative. Sure, innovation on a global or market scale might not be common or necessary, but within the context of a single company the definition is broader.

I believe that small software teams can achieve big results. eulerr.com is an invite-only network of experienced teams focused on a certain industry. Each team is dedicated to only one project at a time to be the most efficient. We charge a flat rate - $30 USD applied to any specialist. The client pays only for the real time spent recorded in Eulerr time sheet. We believe that our main goal is to deliver to market iterative and incremental value, as fast as possible.
Facts are never innocent and pure, they always come tainted with opinion. What you choose to emphasize, how you say it and so on is loaded not because people have poor intentions but because language is a limited medium.

Eg, did you hear about the poor innocent statue conservationists who got caught up in a bad situation?

While that feeling is present, I think there's an undercurrent you're missing.

NYC has a lot of bicycle infrastructure that is designed and managed for use at bicycle speeds, and under the physicals constraints bicycles face. The style of electric bicycle favored by delivery people (and many others) is significantly heavier, faster, and quieter than an unpowered bicycle, so it's easy to see it as an abuse of the infrastructure.

There's also an element of classism and in-group/out-group bitterness involved. The people most commonly using these bikes for deliveries are predominantly lower-class immigrants, under heavy pressure to go quickly, and are generally not involved with the (wealthier) "bike culture".

There's also a comradery of effort that goes along with riding a bike, the sense that the other people on bikes are putting in the same effort as you. It's granfalloonery at its finest, but I don't think it's fair to attribute this to luddism.
Pretty important distinction too. Android has built in ability to load from alternative sources and does not force folks to use the Play Store for downloads, so this developer is welcome to submit their app to an alternative store (Multiple options).
I think we should examine the effectiveness of bans on speech r.e. limitation of the spread of an ideology.

For example, according to the Southern Poverty Law Center (not a group with an incentive to deflate numbers), at its peak the National Alliance had 1,200 members. All together, there are a few thousand active Neo-Nazis in the United States.

In contrast, let's take 2 countries where advocating Nazi ideology is illegal: Austria and Germany.

In Austria, the Freedom Party, founded by a former SS officer, has 50,000 members, 13 seats in the Upper House (similar to the Senate in the US) and 38 seats in the lower house as well as 4 in the European Parliament.

In Germany, the NPD received over 600,000 votes in the most recent election and now has a seat in the European Parliament.

I don't know. If you are not already familiar with the inner workings of bitcoin, it seems to me that a simple computation power secures the transactions is not really helpful. What does that even mean, to secure the transactions?

Essentially, for an article that is aimed to such a wide audience you need to find an appropriate simplification. Such a simplification will never be completely accurate. Therefore, I consider anything appropriate that is technically not wrong and does not create more confusion. For example, describing mining as a process of generating bitcoins would probably satisfy those requirements (ignoring transactions fees).

I agree that it would be nice to be able to explain what the real purpose of mining is, but I don't see a really good way to do this.

This one will be harder since you have had to manage people to get some anecdotes. Its much easier (and fun) to poke fun at management. I used to manage people, doing SW engineering now and enjoying the "freedom".

* Thinking that pure technical merit of an idea will magically sell it to me (manager) and above.

* Under estimating the effort to get something complete.

* Not talking to people. If you go back n forth a couple times via email or chat and can't resolve something, talk in person. Before you complain to me about another person or team, please have at least talked to them first.
I use amazon for many of the reasons you listed - but the first thing I do on a new device is turn off 1-click. I can't see this patent changing the game for anyone.
The first sentence.
I stopped shopping at Wal-Mart around 2009. When I returned to the US in 2012, I saw Amazon as the new Wal-Mart and stopped shopping there.

I realize Target and Kroger probably implement the same tactics as WM now, same with eBay/Newegg sellers and Amazon, so I realize it's more symbolic than anything.

By high bandwidth users I am referring more to companies like Netflix or a bloated news site than to end users. It would be easier for everyone if ISP and Netflix negotiated ``oversize'' rates than having individual consumer throttling. It doesn't have to be discriminatory, oversize rates could be triggered when traffic from a corporate entity exceeded some threshold rate.

From the perspective of taxpayers, having nations compete for the lowest taxes and most friendly regulatory environment is beneficial. If there were a global territorial monopoly on the production of security and rule of law, you would likely find yourself with a lower quality of life.

Because dogs have no means to express the concept "why?" Animals don't plan in an animate sense in any form observable in the same way humans do.

See the quote from Hacker's "Wittgenstein: Comparisons and Context" here:

"The limits of thought are the behavioral expression of thought. It is perfectly possible, in certain circumstances, for an animal to think and not show it. But it makes sense to ascribe thinking to an animal only insofar as the animal's behavioral repertoire includes such behavior as would express what the animal is said to think."
We store the cells in three larger aliquots and six smaller ones. Most clinical applications employ prior expansion of the cells before administration. As an example, this trial using them to aid in kidney transplantation uses 1-2M mesenchymal stem cells per kg of body weight: https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT02057965 that would be between 80-160M cells for most patients. For MSCs, one can get those numbers from one of our smallest aliquots.

Stem cell expansion continues to improve, and with it, we can get more cells from fewer without adversely affecting them in the process. As expanded cells can be cryopreserved just as freshly collected ones, it is possible that the cells we collect can be expanded to vast numbers, and then stored for many future applications.

As an example, with just one of our small aliquots, I was able to generate more MSCs in culture than I have in my body.
Perhaps what bothers the author about e-bikes is that using a bike safely on streets requires hard-won skills, and riders who start out on an e-bike might get hurt before they acquire those skills. The faster the bike, the greater the probable damage.

Just this morning, as I was biking to work, a car came within an inch or so of hitting me, but I was moving slowly enough to avoid a collision. On an e-bike the story might have been very different.
Conventionally ugly and socially-unskilled people might get rough treatment from their peers, but generally haven't been subject to special laws against them, pogroms or even the relatively mild insinuation they should be avoided as a group because of their "immorality" or "agenda".

Also, appearance and social skills are gradients which don't fit neatly into groups, and many people who might widely be considered to sit at the ugly/unskilled end of the spectrum have absolutely no desire to identify as such.
But again, now the rest of America is more cognizant of the existence of those people.

People with a persecution complex are going to view anything that way. Get kicked off? Fits their narrative (or is approval). Ignored? Fits their narrative. Told what they're doing is wrong? Fits their narrative.

So if you think this is stupid what would have accomplished the goal of making life harder for them?
Was just in semi-rural Germany (villages every km or two, farmer's fields between, so not urban commuting) and I'd say half of the bikes I passed were electric assist. There weren't actually that many cyclists, considering the infrastructure available. Many bike/ped only paths near the roads, and many roads that are farmworker/ped/bike only, so no cars (but those tended to be significantly hilly, like 1k feet of climbing/10 miles).

But for the most part, the people on the electric assist bikes were older, a distinct population from the ones out for a spin. They were also pretty mellow in terms of speed -- faster than the kiddos but I'd pass them pretty handily on my road bike. It's my impression that the electric bikes there definitely expand the cycling population, and don't detract from it at all.

I would be skeptical of research that says other animals are incapable of reasoning. I think it would be more along the lines of the limits of their reasoning, and other abilities to utilize the reasoning they're capable of.

Clearly there are some differences between humans and other animals, even other primates. But it's hard to quantify those exactly. If humans have reasoning score of 10, do dogs have reasoning of 1 or 5? Even the variability among people and measurable differences between individual dogs or breed of dog further complicates that.
Mencken was of course famously anti-semetic and racist, though the claims of his support of the Nazi's may be overstated.

One interesting quote in this regard is this:

"Any defense of Germany was impossible, he concluded, ''so long as the chief officer of the German state continues to make speeches worthy of an Imperial Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan, and his followers imitate, plainly with his connivance, the monkey-shines of the American Legion at its worst.''"

Weird to see Hitler, before he became the go-to bad guy, being compared with classic American racism and political violence, with the implication that better is expected of him.
This Co. has a patent to give AI chatbots empathy. Will it work?

The feeling of being victimized, whether valid or not, only emboldens these people.
Ehh...it's not so much controversial as it is just details that are normally left out. Once you're aware of them and take the time to verify the citations you immediately notice when other people leave them out.

Sure there were economic factors at play and those are interesting in their own right, but in the south the biggest thing that people fail to understand is the element of fear. I don't want to do a historic nose dive, but the 3 things you can read about to understand that better are The Haitian Massacre of 1804, John Brown, and The Cherokee Declaration of Causes.

Of those three, only John Brown is mentioned on the Wikipedia timeline. The other two provide context.
That is what's happening today, offered by the only company with the scale to do it: Amazon (It's called FBA). Then when they see your products are selling particularly well, they stock them, undercut you, and put you out of business.
I'm in virtually the same boat as you. I've been a prime customer for over a decade even and have easily spent over $500k with them (lots of business purchases) throughout the years, yet I've used 1-click purchase a single digit number of times.
That's pretty cynical. This is not a zero sum game, improving diversity makes things better for everyone. Because properly improving diversity means you're making an environment that focuses less on "type of people" and more on "type of job".

As an example, a lot of effort goes into a good interview process. When you work hard to minimize unconscious bias in interviews, you're making the interview process and criteria fit the actual job better. Bad interview processes select for people just like the interviewer, good interview processes select for the actual job and don't filter on tangential stuff.
Who is "we"? Different people acknowledged different things, and that is why there is a dispute.
I also like that. And additionally, they don't have the worst seat pitch either. In a recent trip I took flights with Vueling, Iberia and Ryanair. Vueling was excruciating torture (it always is, but it was the only airline serving that route, so unavoidable). Iberia was somewhat milder torture. Ryanair was actually quite OK, at least I could fit in the space without physical pressure from the seat in front if I placed my legs at a particular angle.

Couldn't we just come up with some convention for "expanded filenames" where the meta-data is included in the file name itself? In the UI portion, you see what you see now, no difference, but say anything after the // delimiter in the file name is considered meta data and not shown in the windows/terminal UI.

Not sure if it's a good solution but if I were to put the meta data somewhere I would somehow try to put it in the identifier of the file (the name) as it is data that would help me identify the file AND it's content!
The data is for registrations, not who actually voted. There's probably quite a few people who are deceased or moved who are probably still in the registration db.
It allows you to run GPU-accelerated applications (like machine learning, HPC, video/image processing...) inside a Docker container.
> It is worth noting, that it can't be a million dollar business without actually solving a business problem.

Based on my interactions with Infosis, I beg to differ.

As best as I can tell, their business model is basically to convince clients that Infosys should take on IT projects at a fraction of the cost compared to the competition. Whoever gets them through the door gets hailed as a cost saving hero and is soon promoted. Meanwhile the projects that were given to them inevitably fail, and some new executive is sent in to pick up the pieces. At that stage the cycle may repeat with Infosys once again picking up the task of cleaning up its own mess.

They don't solve business problems, they just sell snake oil to organizations that have not yet learned to avoid them.
Seems like a good opportunity to explain why "that is true". I'm curious what you're thinking.
Yes, this is a great use case. Search around, there are a few folks putting together dockers to get you out of dl dependency hell
> All this feature actually does it give you the users credit card, phone number, and billing/shipping addresses. You still have to give that information to someone like Stripe.

I used to sit on the working group for Payment Request - the primary intention of Payment Request is to get rid of checkout forms and parallel implementations of the same logic. Right now most for most implementations that means credit card entry, but the standard is designed to support any type of payment.

So if I'm running an eCommerce site and want to support PayPal, Apple Pay, and Android Pay I shouldn't need to implement three discrete SDKs and APIs - I can instead implement Payment Request (although you'll still need to process the payment information output by each of those payment mechanisms separately. Ultimately for many merchants the implementation of Payment Request will be abstracted away by their payment processor, such as Stripe).

However, there is a parallel standard to Payment Request, called Payment Handler, which is designed to allow third party payment providers to write service-worker-esque plugins to browsers to take payment directly. They're intended to work together, but it's possible for a browser to implement just Payment Request to replace autofill if they so choose.

There's also a lot of other work going on at the W3C around payment, but Payment Request and Payment Handler have the most support from browser vendors and are as such the most actively developed.
The victim is not at fault.

1. On Windows, the standard mechanism to delete files it to move/ to 'Recycle Bin' - why did the IDE override the functionality?

2. In git, this action is equivalent to 'git checkout' that will show you a message to stash. In earlier versions of git, where message to git stash are not shown, the files are not deleted from disk.

The problem highlighted here is a genuine one, the IDE MUST and MUST show warning before such destructive operations.
I don't doubt that. But at least make an effort to stay impartial. I think scientific papers do a pretty good job with this.
So how do you make one of your shared documents point to another of your shared documents? How do you have people collaboratively create and edit shared documents? How do you view the history or one of your shared documents?

I don't disagree with you. But this is a private company that has decided that being associated with, doing business with, or providing a platform for neo-nazis (real or pretend) is bad for their bottomline. They made the correct call.
The problem is that I (and possibly you idk) can't decide to start paying taxes in Cayman islands while still residing in the US. Why should a hedge fund be allowed to do that?

Not to sound condescending but the following phrase

"years of research and brilliant ideas should be protected"

can never adequately define what must be patented and what must not be. An brilliant idea need not take years of research. Even the interpretation of the word brilliant is debatable.

PS: I'm not taking any stance with respect to patents. Just saying that it's not black and white.
