This fight started with Google. Google gates off their Android apps solely to manufacturers which agree to all of Google's demands on control of Android devices, things like the default search settings, which apps are preinstalled, etc. In order to comply with Google's terms, Amazon would've literally had to preinstall Google Play Books on their Kindles.

This issue is the subject of the EU's next antitrust case expected to be settled this year.

Amazon then in return chose to not sell Google products which were intentionally blocked from supporting Kindle products, which is why they won't sell the Chromecast, for instance.
The issue is startup time. Do you want to wait 30 seconds after you turn on your camera?
The gcc port is mature and has been upstreamed. The LLVM port is still a work-in-progress.

Why? Google would love nothing more than to get YouTube onto as much hardware as possible. They'd also love to have their ad revenue, and the Echo Show integration didn't show any ads.

Is it anti-competitive to say "please show our ads if you want to integrate with our free video service"?

Author here: I've been sitting on this for so long and feel like I just have to post it here so I can stop stressing about posting it here. I use it every day, and anyone I do contracting for I set them up with a free account so they have more visibility into their data. It's been live for around 4 months now and I've just been struggling with SPA prerendering/seo and so just never started to push it. I put so much time into it kind of a shame that I don't know how to push / market it but here we are. Any thoughts, questions and feedback are very much appreciated.
I think you are being disingenuous when you try to stereotype people from an entire country as lazy and incompetent. Many of the top notch software companies including Google, FB, Amazon, etc., have many Indians working and thriving in them. Indian software companies export around $121B worth of software every year. If what you said were true, why would any company want to hire anyone from India? It seems more like you made a poor judgement in picking a consulting company and didn't have enough knowledge to know before hand that they weren't up to the mark. Building quality software is very hard. If some consulting company offers to build it for cheap and at good quality, without any credentials backing them up, they are faking it.
How is it like in the US? I've mostly had positive experiences in open offices (except for an annoying co-worker or two), but then again, I've never had my own office, only worked from home a few times.

One of those players has a virtual monopoly on internet videos by subsidizing a money losing service with the virtual monopoly on search revenues.

Amazon's refusal to list Chromecast and Google Home was in response to Google's refusal to allow Amazon products like the Kindle Fire to run Google Apps and/or interact with those devices.
You should use uBlock Origin and Stylus. They both support the new WebExtensions API and are generally better alternatives than ABP and Stylish.
Both House OS in Haskell and SVA-OS handled that by cleanly hiding unsafe details behind an interface that could be used safely:

So, that's not really a limitation. Worst-case scenario is proving those primitives correct with external tools whose preconditions and invariants are just checked by memory-safe code calling it. The above work shows worst case might not happen, though.
I just clicked that link. Rust is in fact first on a few of those categories. I’m not sure what your point is though, as the comment says that it is “one of” the most energy efficient languages, not the most energy efficient. It appears to gernerally be in the top three.

A couple of points here. Rust is generally as fast as C and C++, but on top of that it is memory and data race safe. Said another way, there is a safe language alternative which doesn’t have the pitfalls of C/C++, and that’s a great thing!
Developing a storage layer as elaborate as RocksDB from scratch is quite an endeavor, and wanting to just use RocksDB instead of making your own is a smart decision. From there, Go is sort of easy to throw out of the picture: using cgo kills performance and safety. I say this as a person who uses Go as my workhorse, have used it for many years and has a favorable opinion of it.
What about on the monetization side of things?

I know many YT firearms channels that have been basically blacklisted from monetization in recent months because YT classifies anything they do as "unsuitable for ads". It has forced a lot to double publish to https://www.full30.com/ to monetize their work.

Quick google search tells me that I can power a model 2 b rpi for 5 hours off of a camera battery. And you can better than an rpi for power consumption.

Maybe a bit off topic but, how is Kodi on a Pi at decoding high quality MKVs with DTS sound? I have a Retro Pi on a Raspberry Pi 3b, but haven't bothered putting Kodi on it as I have a Zotac Z-Box right next to it with optical outputs and all that jazz. Might be nice to consolidate.

On the one hand, I find this amazing that you can just write out these more complex grid layouts and end up just filling them all out side by side.

On the other hand, I'm skeptical about some parts of this feature like the layouts. You're using space-delimited strings matching a different property you set via a class, whose positions and juxtaposition determine the layout? Seems prone to typos and like you're recreating an ASCII version of the layout in your CSS files.

I don't agree. The tree being balanced of not has not bearing on the solvability of the problem.

Even a naive approach would work balanced or unbalanced and that would be simply to pop the lowest value in the tree and construct your list until you run out of nodes.

The trick is to do it in O(n) time and use recursion.

I'm not sure how the author can assert with a straight face that Dodd-Frank is essentially sacred, a lack of community banks is hurting the economy, and that it's all the big banks' fault.

A loan to your your local mom-and-pop shop is a much riskier investment than a bond to a large corporation. DFA discourages risk-taking with the new capital requirement rules. Thus, community banks are fighting over a small pool of profitable loan opportunities and their numbers shrink. On the other side, small businesses have a harder time getting loans.

Regulatory compliance overhead from DFA hits community banks harder than big banks as well, so they're consolidating and leaving fewer true community banks.

None of this is has much to do with the actions of big banks. It's the natural consequence of DFA. If you don't like the status quo, you need to change DFA. Not necessarily to pre-2007 rules, but some small changes could provide a big boost to community banks.
From the consumer perspective, Amazon being forced to preinstall Google Play Books on their Kindles sounds like a good thing, it only increases competition for the actual content.
I dont think theyre saying lossy isnt useful - but that too many people arent doing _any_ compression at all. Thats the way I read it; I could be wrong.
It shows that it can be successful if you use it like it's used in Japan. It does not show that it can be successful when it is used like English speakers use it.

Twitter is unusual in that it is a pretty spare tool. They've added a number of small features in support of how people were seen to be using it. But what mainly defines it is the ways people use it, not the tool itself.
Well, currently we're centralizing it all under YouTube so...

Ya, there are a few other related questions below. Resilio is BitTorrent-based. But I'm not 100% familiar with how Resilio differs from BitTorrent.

The core difference is in our approach. We're all open source and a non-profit. We're also really focused on the research data use case where BitTorrent is less easily deployed.

We hope that making an open and easy to use p2p protocol will enable other developers to build applications on top, and something like Resilio could be one.

It's hard to emphasize the auditability enough. With auditing a C/C++ codebase, in my experience, you rely a lot on intuition. "Well, there's parsing done here, so I'll focus my efforts" or "Historically we've had a lot of CVEs from this part of code so I'll start there".

I'm not a professional RE so my experience is limited, but when I went looking for vulns that's how I went about it, and I think that's generally the case.

With rust there's significantly less guesswork. That parser doesn't use unsafe? OK, let's start elsewhere. That seemingly innocent code uses unsafe? Great, check that out.

You can grep for vulnerabilities, basically.

To be fair, while he isn’t giving hard answers to a lot of questions in this thread, you’re being really antagonistic with that last line. I’d like more information too, but it doesn’t improve the odds he’ll answer to your satisfaction by publicly calling him out.
You seem to be misunderstanding, I mean the core philosophies of Android as an OS that make it convenient/powerful in some aspects also lend to it being inefficient with battery life.

Android is making strides with things like Doze, but the same things that make iOS feel locked down for me as a developer compared to Android are also a huge part of the reason why iPhones can get such amazing standby time (since crappy software isn't even allowed to do inefficient things)

And fwiw, if I were talking about hardware, I'd expect the lower-end devices are better with battery life because more of them come with near bone stock Android than flagships.
It's also possible to not run analytics on your site if you don't want to spend the effort running something secure within your own country.
> PG just doesn't have the same quality SQL-dialect or tools as MSSQL though.

T-SQL sucks, I don't know how on earth you get the feel of "quality" from it. Every time I have to work with it I cry, pl/pgsql is a hell of a lot nicer and I can feel comfortable stating that as an objective.

As far as GUI tooling? Ya got me there, even as terrible as auto-complete is in SSMS it's leaps and bounds better than PGAdmin or DataGrip for pointy-clicky DBA tasks - though I've just learned to use the system tables/views in PostgreSQL like I have MSSQL because I can't stand pointy-clicky stuff.

> Some very basic facilities are missing from PG like snapshot and transaction logs

What? Snapshot isolation is available by default with PostgreSQL, it ONLY uses MVCC for transaction isolation. You want snapshot, set your transaction isolation level to REPEATABLE READ. And transaction logs? What on earth do you mean? Transaction logs are fundamental to PostgreSQL like they are any other RDBMS, you can ship them off for backups, do PITR with them, etc - just like you can SQL server.

> batched triggers

Yup, that's true.

> being able to return multiple resultsets from a single trip to the database server.

Technically doable with stored functions in PostgreSQL, though ill-advised. SQL Server makes this easier if you need it, for sure.

> there's nothing like SQL Server Data Tools.

Yup, although this is really down to a matter of preference. SQL Server Data Tools is great for warehousing projects, but for application databases using the database migration tools provided by your framework of choice work just fine.

And hey, I've got respect for MS SQL Server, it's a well-performing, well-supported enterprise SQL database - not to mention SQL Server Analysis Services kicks some serious ass for business intelligence use-cases (especially considering it's included right in the package, and with the new PowerBI-derived Reporting Services you get a full BI package for a really good deal). But let's make sure we're all educated on tools before we start nitpicking them, eh?

I disagree? Functions which allocate things returning unique_ptr is much clearer than returning a raw pointer. Clear ownership being passed, as opposed to maybe just having a view into some internal buffer.

I mean, if you only view functions as being called for side effects, then yeah maybe. But if you're constructing a data pipeline, unique_ptr in and out makes a lot of sense.
Mushroom Networks Awarded 2017 Internet Telephony SD-WAN Excellence Award
This is an overly complicated data container format for not much advantage. To be honest, everything you can do with this can be done at the same level or better with SQLite, an actual database system. Having to implement 4 different parers and validation functions spanning a mix of csv, xml and json just to access what is essentially a csv file is not feasible.
MacOS Sierra Removed from Mac App Store
You know what's really impressive? Back in the early 2000s I bought a 1991 Honda CRX HF from a friend, and it got about 48 mpg even with 150k miles on the odometer. That wasn't a hybrid car, just a hyper-efficient gasoline engine in a lightweight body, and it still had enough pep to safely merge on the highway.

One would think a modern plug-in hybrid would get well over 70 mpg.

By the way, some cameras do run linux, and they take 5-15 seconds to start up. If a camera does take long to startup, it is because it's running linux. These are typically security cameras, which are switched on basically only once, or as a periodic power cycle. Consumer cameras always use a RTOS. Ambarella makes chips for both cases. for example the H2 is for linux, while the S5 is the same chip but for RTOS.
So how is that a solution? The problem is that Cloudflare blocks Tor, not Tor Browser: not every Tor user uses Tor Browser.
Key quote from Gorman in the article: "I haven't invested in it."
Whether some info is in video format is irrelevant.

The fact is, the only platform for video, right now, which can work is youtube. If you host your own video instead, it both has a high cost, and low rate of returns.

If cloudflare can make hosting your own video more cost effective, it is a plus for the internet. I don't want youtube to be so dominant that they can start doing things like censoring and curating.
As of the big Wells Fargo scam, I filed BB under "actively destroying value".

Moving to a New City? An Immersion Checklist
The EU is my last hope. Out of all governments and international entities, the EU is the only one I have a stretch of confidence in. The fact that Google and Amazon are located in the US means that the EU has nothing to lose if they want to regulate them. An additional fact that the EU consists of multiple countries that can bully each other to comply with their own laws makes it effective. I believe that if there is someone who can fix this shitty situation, it is the EU.
