The EU has a nuclear option for google. Ireland and the netherlands are both in the EU. If google loses its incorporation in those companies, it might have to pay US taxes on repatriated US holdings.

Ireland and the Netherlands subcompanies are essential part of US Corporate tax evasion. (Double Irish with a Dutch sandwich).
I'm currently a beta tester for Nvidia's GeForce Now[1], and it essentially gives you a Windows 2012 R2 VM with Steam installed to play games: Xeon E5-2697 v4 @ 2.30GHz (8 vCPUs allocated), NVIDIA Tesla P40 (24 GB allocated), 16 GB RAM, and 320 GB HDD. Latency is quite decent where I am, about 18 ms to the nearest data center. This is okay for casual, single player games, but it's still too much lag for competitive gaming (CS:GO, PUBG, etc.).

A similar service is LiquidSky[2], which interestingly has a free tier.

> This looks really nice, but what is the advantage of a dedicated graphing calculator in a world full of smart phones?

Specialized UIs and a physical keyboard means a user who has mastered a graphing calculator along with its associated CAS, can be far more efficient than someone poking on a virtual touch screen.

TI-89, as maligned as it is, has a UI that is designed to do one thing, and one thing only, a lot of math, as fast as its little CPU can chug through. Presumably this calculator is the same.

That said, there documentation is seriously underwhelming, with many (most) pages being a brief summary and nothing else.

PrinceXML is in a league of it's own. Very, very light weight. Very fast and it has outstanding output. The price tag is steep for sure, but if your business relies on PDF output then nothing comes close.

Ugh, sadly it seems you are right. It doesn't look like it has all the power than a TI-89 does. Very unfortunate, I was excited, now, not so much.

You might want to weigh less controversial (as in abs(upvotes - downvotes) higher. This would be somewhat like Effect Size in science.

"Governor Mary Fallin had an answer: prayer. The governor issued an official proclamation making 13 October Oilfield Prayer Day."

With such leadership is it any wonder the state is failing? Oil is over. Either find another industry or accept the inevitable poverty. If the cities are indeed doing well, however, then it's hard to say the state is failing. Of course rural areas are poor, though the police and public workers could have some empathy and compassion, both sorely lacking. Rural areas will fail as they are failing and have been failing everywhere in the world. Only entitlement created by some unusually prosperous years due to oil have made the people not realize this.

As an end-user, AMP breaks 'back' on my iPhone when I navigate to articles (including those from Condé Nast) linked to from Google News. I have to scroll up and use Google's custom back button; using left/right swipe gestures or the browser's back causes problems. Sometimes it's so bad that when I reload the page, I get some weird error from Google about how I got there, which is doubly weird because it's their fault I'm there because they're intentionally wrapping/breaking standard functionality.
Yes, absolutely! I'm a public school teacher in OKC and this year the admins have heavily encouraged us to make use of donorschoose.org to request items we need for the classroom.

>I'm curious: could any of the recently known smart contract bugs have been prevented through the use of a stricter type system?

Short-answer is yes, and there's been lots of work done to go even further than having static typing and have formal verification for smart-contracts.

>I'm genuinely curious: what types of bugs does a stricter type system catch that a reasonable test suite probably would not?

Not sure what you mean by "reasonable" (is it extensive? testing pathological cases? where do you draw the line?). But type checking at compile time makes your code less inclined to showcase a certain class of bugs that are the byproduct of ambiguity in the language semantics and logical mistake in the programmer writing the code.

And with formal verification you can actually make sure that your logic meets the specs. You can hardly extract stronger correctness guarantees than that!

If that interests you, check out Tezos (https://tezos.com/) and github.com/tezos/tezos. The entire codebase is in OCaml.

I don't think Google is bad. But with my engineer hat on, I choose to diversify my risks. In particular, if Google chooses to disable my account, I don't want my email, my phone (and phone service), my ISP, my calendar, my documents and slides, my navigation, etc., all to instantly drop dead at the same time.

Just say yes to diversity! ;-)
Not sure I follow, what do you mean?
> I'm genuinely curious: what types of bugs does a stricter type system catch that a reasonable test suite probably would not?

Edge cases that you do not hit in your test cases.

One could also argue that a distributed computing platform coupled to a money system may not need to be Turing complete. State-of-the art type systems are capable of proving non-trivial properties of code which could be handy in the crypto world.

Aren't Google using Wayland in ChromeOS? If not, it's pretty bad and just another rift like their SurfaceFlinger on Android.

I'm also waiting for Firefox to start supporting Wayland without X11, but it's progressing really slowly.

Besides browsers another very major work is required for Wine. It's not even moving anywhere now, since developers aren't sure how to address it. They are too dependent on X11 for windows placements and etc.

So XWayland will need to be adequate, to address these cases, including gaming, until the time major projects will complete all that work.

One thing about small arthropods is that, whatever you do in a large scale against them stops being effective in 2 or 3 years. Always.

That's not even an additional octave over 20K. It amazes me when people behave as if there's a magical hard limit that's really, really precise and applies to all humans.

I think you probably understand that people get locked into arguing for victory, and if you tell them you were tested with thus and so range (as a young person, which is plausible) they will simply call you a liar.

My own experience is this: when I was a kid, I got an ear wax problem, and had it removed (hasn't recurred). It was a horrible painful nightmare with nasty tweezers and water squirters, and I was just a little kid… but afterwards, sound (especially very high frequency sound) was a revelation.

Later, when I was a little older, the advent of digital audio (at first, in record albums) was a nightmare to me, because I couldn't understand how or why that stuff sounded SO BAD. And of course my early experience of CDs was pretty nightmarish: pod people music, with all emotion and humanity weirdly excised. That's what got me into audio: wanting to understand this, and then later, fix it.

I did actually succeed: I can produce and mix and process digital audio that young me would not be horrified by. But especially if I had to meet that higher bar, I won't be able to do it at less than say 22 bit/80K, well engineered. If I get to use all my current tricks I could do it at 20 bit/80K: I can cheat word length easier than I can compensate for a nasty brickwall filter.

24/96K is widely prevalent and enough, given good converters. I'm not convinced 192K is at all necessary, but the more people crusade against it, the more contrarian I get ;) I've got a Beauty Pill album mastered in 24/192K and it sounds freaking phenomenal. Mind you, I have professional equipment designed to handle that.

Tangential, but at some point of the last 15 years I thought the music industry might move to distributing what amounts to dedicated MP3 players/USB sticks. The simplest ones would be squares with album covers (shrunk like CD covers have shrunk from vinyl), but artists could get 3D creative. You could wear your music in necklaces or in your belt. People would flock to these things as conspicuous consumption (as they already do with tshirts, pin-buttons, etc) which would offset piracy.

All of this is viable and cheaper than ever, but the culture has moved on.
I really don't think liking Node is a cross to bear
So many birds and insects seem to be sensitive to the magnetic forces deep within the planet. I've never met a human being who was consciously aware of these forces, but I've met plenty of spiritualists who called them something else. Ask any old person whose body reacts to pressure changes in the weather, and they'll point out which bones ache when a storm is approaching. They're usually right.

As humans, we brush it off. It's just a feeling, or we're having a bad headache, and need to take some medicine. To a small insect whose entire world can change in a flash though, these signals are a monumentally important part of how they sense the world. Especially I think in absence of more complex visual perception that we humans use to bridge the gap.

Nature is amazing! The more we study it, the less we realize we actually know.

Not from what I have read or heard. There still seems to be a need across the board for those with deep knowledge, especially when it comes to certain topics. The people I have known who have had trouble, and studies I have read about the topic point mainly to biology and chemistry as the two hardest fields to break initially with a PhD. But of course even that could change depending on specialization, etc.
screw ticks and fire ants

Diatomaceous earth will do the job. It can be purchased at any farm supply store for pretty cheap. Works on fleas, bedbugs, millipedes, roaches, centipedes ... pretty much any little bug with an exoskeleton. Farm supply store because it's traditionally been used to mix into agricultural feed (food grade DE) as an anti-caking agent.

But works to kill bugs, too. Diatoms in this form are fossilized like microscopic weapons of destruction that get under the exoskeletons of ants and other creepy crawlies and dehydrate them. Best of all: no chemicals involved so they cannot develop resistance. Medieval torture devices on bugs; will desiccate them.
Sure, that could totally work. Part of the benefit a type system provides is that those checks are provided for you automatically, every time.

The problem I see is when in their supposed wisdom they discredit the potential contribution of some lone visionary. And this goes back to your original premise, with which I strongly agree.

This is a great example why user feedback needs to be taken in close proximity to a salt mine.

We, or at least most of us, being human, have a horrible job anticipating our future emotional state. So when his friend said that she'd be interested if FontForge was available on her Mac, she probably meant it, but her request didn't reflect the underlying reasons she held for not using the software.

Not out of dishonesty or malice, but because she probably didn't know herself. It's like all those times somebody swore they would love to have an app that frobnitzed the foobars, but when said app became available, it was met with a chorus of shrugs and mehs.

There's an excellent book on this topic -- The Mom Test -- that anybody building products should read.
This is an interesting case study in development cycles. The Pixel XL from October 2016 uses the Snapdragon 82x released in July 2016 but first announced in March 2015 and it uses a kernel from 2014 which gives us a hint about when driver development started.

No, that's not accurate. EtM is an implementation technique. AEAD is a cryptographic primitive service model. The concepts aren't directly comparable.

In particular: you can easily end up with AE w/o AD by doing DIY ETM, and end up with serious exploitable bugs.

The personalization is what made me switch to DDG. Google shows me too many results of what I searched for yesterday or the results of that similar search I just made. The more google tries to show results for what I think it's searching for instead of what I type into the search box the worse it gets for me.

DDG might sometimes show me some rust proofing results when I'm search for programming related things, but it least it doesn't ignore my refined searches.
This sort of reminds of "voting theory" and if I recall it was proven by I think a nobel prize winner that there cannot be a fair winner.

I'm not sure I follow this. A library implementation of an AEAD, with "Seal" and "Unseal" functions, is almost misuse-resistant (depending on the primitive and how they handle nonces). The same is not true of a library that exports AES-CTR or AES-CBC's Encrypt/Decrypt, plus a MAC!

If you're implementing an entire AEAD construction, like GCM or EAX, from scratch, then yes. Don't do that. You probably are safer composing CBC and HMAC than you would be writing your own EAX.

But if your library exports an EAX, using it is almost certainly a huge security win over DIY authenticated encryption, even if you can remember the order of operations properly.
sounds like an interesting idea but as pointed out above, with these kinds of projects, equipment access is the main hurdle.. I use Autodesk Fusion 360 for the modeling. I really like it though to be honest it's the only 3d program I ever tried and I just picked it up recently
Yes and no. You can imagine that some of this is new traffic they otherwise would not have gotten and another % is cannibalizing existing traffic they usually get via Google.

>> in this case it was clearly a net positive

Not so fast. When I was there, the earlier experiment was that its was a "mixed" success. This post also suggests strongly to me that that hasn't changed too much ("Monetization benefits are less decisive and pending further analysis").

For many publishers it comes down to they cant get slightly more traffic with AMP (because of the AMP carousel in Search results) at a lower CPM which is a positive. However, as more publishers come on board that gets tricky all over again and risk of it becoming another race to the bottom of lower CPMs.
Is this a good book to start with?
No. This will not be fixed.
