When I moved to Silicon Valley years ago I found it quite confusing at first when trying to find addresses on Kifer Rd, which lies right on the border of Santa Clara and Sunnyvale. Driving westbound one finds the addresses on the left in the 1,000's and decreasing, while the addresses on the right are in the 3000's and increasing.

After using both, TypeScript feels more natural and clean. Flow adds too many syntax deviations that I generally dislike.

TypeScript works amazingly well with React. Also, it's great only having 1-2 build dependencies rather than 10+ Babel plugins.
> Yes, Apple frequently does things right that other people have failed on.

That is exactly what non tech people want. Things that just works. There is an enormous market of people that don't want cutting edge, but reliable and long lasting tech. Apple fits that way more than Android. That is their force. It is entirely within their philosophy to not include wireless charging unless it is their own they back for a long time, or a market standard emerges. Arguably since Ikea included Qi chargers in a lot of their affordable furniture, that made Qi chargers the emergent standard.
You don't hear people complaining about speed, because there's constant optimization around that. If searches start taking 2-3 seconds with better search quality. The service might be much more useful, but it will feel very much worse. And how people feel is how they judge you.
> I suspect that the new babel-preset-typescript can't quite do _just_ type-stripping can it? Since some features in TypeScript have runtime implications, those would still have to be transformed as opposed to simply stripped, correct?

I'm quite new to Typescript myself so I really don't know. At least I'm not aware of such features and don't think this Babel feature would make much sense if there were any?

EDIT: I think some of the runtime features are just TS doing ES6 to ES5 compiling. Such as "for of" loops, generators etc., but since those are just ES6 syntax they can be handled by other Babel plugins/presets or even by modern browsers directly.
Digital News Initiative Innovation Fund: Call for Fourth Round Applications
Node is JavaScript and JavaScript is roughly the same age as Java and is, I think it's reasonable to say, at least as successful and long-lived. I'd be willing to believe it'll actually outlast Java, as JavaScript has been accelerating in adoption and its deployment footprint (by that I mean the variety of places it is deployed), while Java seems to be popular but pretty stable.

So, maybe I just don't understand what you're suggesting. JavaScript may be the most successful language in history; it wouldn't surprise me to find that there's more lines of code in JavaScript today than any other language (possibly by a wide margin), even counting the billions of lines of C/C++ code out there that we don't see because it never makes it to Github or whatever. If it's not true today, it seems likely to be true within a few years.

The online search takes into account all short term schedule modifications. Considering how many such changes occur on almost daily basis, you would be quickly complaining about data usage from all those schedule updates. Or you would frequently get wrong route.

>execute AIs on clients, and send their inputs along with players' inputs

That seems strange, you'd be sending multiple times the same AI's actions to the server, in which case you better be certain that it's deterministic, not to mention the security concerns. It seems far easier to execute the AI on the server and send its actions to each player, especially if it's a trivial AI.
Sure, Pi are great. And if you setup a Tor onion service, the ISP can't block access. Unless they block Tor, of course.

And people don't even need Tor to access it. When high security isn't necessary, it's fine to publish Tor2web links, such as https://m_facebookcorewwwi.onion.link/

How so?
This has been exactly my experience as well. The "sound" type system almost never makes a difference beyond blog post examples. TypeScript is incredibly pragmatic and clean.
You'd be surprised at how devious some of the tricks are. I'll give you an example from Startopia: visitors want particular services. These have queues. If the queue is too long, the visitor looks for a shorter line. Except... this led to them aimlessly wandering in circles. Oops.

So, instead, when they decide they want a service, they reserve their place there and then and then just walk to their spot. A completely hidden variable, cheap to compute, and the AI now behaves "sensibly".

In general, the AI of the average opponent in a computer game is way less complex than that of a housefly. Primitive communication and responses to external stimuli is about all there is.

> [T]he black triangle was a pioneer. It wasn’t just that we’d managed to get a triangle onto the screen. That could be done in about a day. It was the journey the triangle had taken to get up on the screen. It had passed through our new modeling tools, through two different intermediate converter programs, had been loaded up as a complete database, and been rendered through a fairly complex scene hierarchy, fully textured and lit (though there were no lights, so the triangle came out looking black). The black triangle demonstrated that the foundation was finally complete the core of a fairly complex system was completed, and we were now ready to put it to work doing cool stuff. By the end of the day, we had complete models on the screen, manipulating them with the controllers. Within a week, we had an environment to move the model through.

I was a reading prodigy (full ability to read adult material before age 3), with astronomical IQ scores to match (higher than what Marilyn vos Savant had in Guinness). Even so, I think I was/am mildly dyslexic.

Clearly, if it's real it's mild, and not much of a disability. Still:

-- It took me several years after I learned to read to stop mixing up letters and their reversed forms (e.g. lower-case b/d).
-- I still have to think hard to avoid mixing up east/west in many map-reading situations.
-- (Don't know if this is relevant) I always have had great difficulty identifying the direction a sound is coming from.

I also generally have difficulty memorizing visual details, recognizing faces, etc.

Think bigger.

Almost overnight you would have no access to food or clean drinking water. There would certainly be no gasoline, heating, cooling, showers, etc.

You wouldn't even be able to "get" money - ATMs won't work and you certainly won't be able to use your smart phone. So you would not be able to buy life necessities even if someone were selling them.

A job will be the last thing you think about.

Great post. I'm working on another open source search engine on top of Redis (http://redisearch.io), mostly focused on index building and serving, and real-time updates of the data. The part about queries being highly varying is extremely challenging. You have to deal with simple "foo bar" queries and complex queries with intricate filtering and crazy stuff (I have a user doing an AND intersection of 17 OR unions, each of 32 terms, while checking the ordering of term offsets!). It's super fun to work on this stuff.

Most of the work needed for decisions is shared between AI instances using a few tricks:

1. Precomputing information for all agents, like using global shortest path (Bellman-Ford).

2. Abandoning per-unit subjectivity (a lot of units will share same view) or in other words: limiting internal unit state, using a shared state between groups of units.

3. Decoupling expensive algorithms into multiple simple steps. (Like state machine simplifies regular expression.)

4. Using separate AI and visualization thread, and using low amortized cost data structures (priority queues etc.).

You may observe all these three rules by anomalies in unit behaviour.

With web stack & EJB i agree, but JMS is still used heavily ie in finance (where I currently work). In situations where you need 100% reliable and trackable message delivery with various load balancing/failover modes, and don't care that much about perfromance (ie max tens of messages/s). Which is good enough for most system integrations these days.

Direct peer-to-peer connectivity (ie SOAP or REST) has few issues, ie when taget is down due to crash/patching, you only get 400/500/timeout and client has to be smart enough to retry later or handle it in other ways. Cluster can solve few of these, but not all of them. What we face regularly - weekend patching where consumers are down for 10 hours easily due to external constraints.

What I want to say - for reliable mesasging, you don't want direct connectivity, rather than central servers that can withstand any situation, and clients don't have to be too smart. Be it some ActiveMQ or Websphere MQ cluster or anything else. JMS is battle-proven, you can have TSL over it and support for it is huge.

Eventually all the BTC will have been mined and no new BTC will ever be created again, unlike regular currencies in which the money supply can always rise alongside the expansion of the economy.

BTC will eventually become a fiscal straight jacket. It may take quite a while to take effect, but is inevitable and the more BTC become integrated into the economy, the more eventual pain it will cause down the line.
Bitcoin is also designed to make future coins harder to mine, thus more expensive. The only incentive to sell bitcoin is if you think the entire thing is about to fail.
PrimeNG 4.2.0-Final Released with 80+ Improvements
As long as biometrics don't unlock secrets (keys, passphrases, shared data etc) it is fine. In all other cases you are correct and it needs some form of replaceable, retractable secret i.e. a passphrase.

This would be a very welcome feature but considering how the secret stores work at this point it is not likely to see this any time soon.

Sidenote: The false positive rate on any biometrics is way higher than you think (it is highly disadvantageous to be black unfortunately, yes biometrics are racist). People usually consider the near bound (e.g. small sample size, high differentiation unless you have twin) of the people around them as proof it is impossible but this has been problem a fallacy in even mediocre sized studies.

It still works but I would really like to see your suggestion to make sure real secrets are properly stored/safe.
