We like Set, too. We also play a similar game called Qwirkle (played by laying tiles in interlocking groups). Qwirkle is played in turns, so some of that pressure of not being fast enough is eliminated.

I play a game with the creative name "make 10" with my kids sometimes that was inspired by Set, except that you have to pick groups of cards that add to 10 (or other numbers, if they're too good at it). My daughter has to find groups of three cards and can use addition and subtraction, and my son just uses addition on groups of two cards. We use regular playing cards with only A-9 included.

I think your solution is good. I'll try it. Assuming entries are only ever added (and never changed), you don't even need a transaction!
JFYI, I find it simpler to use this method, (same method of halving and doubling) used often for Roman numerals multiplication, but in the version that uses two colums only, crossing out the lines not needed (more similar to the "sieve" approach BTW):

You could teach them chess variation known as minichess or halfchess. I have created a game halfchess.com for adults - but plan to add a learning mode for children in future.

I have given kids crash course on chess and it starts like this.

1. Ask them, how many squares are there on a board

2. Tell them about Pawns and make them play on a mini chess board with Pawns. Start with 3 pawns and slowly increase to 4,5,...,8.

3. Show them the knight. Some possible games with just knight are as follows:-

a. Puzzles on how one knight can capture another knight placed in nearby squares.

b. Play a game where one knight has to catch the other knight. The knight that is catching takes two steps every move, the running one takes one step.

c. You can play above game with a dice and let two players battle just their knights. Even throw of dice gets 2 turns

And so on, introduce them to new pieces. You can tell them stories about each of the chess piece as you introduce them to it.

There are several mathematical concepts that you can teach children via chess - for example backtracking from a solution (when solving the puzzles with knights).

At some point, the general population has to realize that the relationship with social media is pretty one-sided. It's an egregiously impersonal landscape with zero regards for personal well being. Plain and simple, social media companies exist to cash in on your personal data.

Slashdot was awesome right up until the point that they forced the redesign on everybody and drove away all the users that made it great. It would be the equivalent of HN forcing autoplay videos and animated banner ads on each page.

This is interesting. When you see these 'obvious to the eye' opportunities, do you stop and treat them as an exercise in generalizing the optimization for a query planner?

I'm curious how much query planners have to make tradeoffs between effective optimizations and not overloading the analysis phase.
Another chip, another socket. If you were considering upgrading your CPU in place you can forget it. You're going to need a new motherboard, with almost exactly the same set of chips on it but a very slightly different socket.

AngularJS vs. ReactJS Infographic
On several separate occasions I tried to use Tesseract to OCR base64 and similar text that was printed in a normal monospace font (i.e. not a special OCR font) and scanned.

I never got even close to getting useful results. I tried limiting the alphabet, disabling language models as far as I could and at most I could get a few recognizable character sequences right out of the whole page. I got the impression that the whole thing very much depends on being able to split text into English words and have easily separated paragraphs.
I've seen real vendor lock-in on corporate level, where in the worst case, the vendor of a client suddenly just did an x20 of the licensing price for the next year, for something that was already a very expensive contract. The client had no other choice but to pay up, moving to another solution would cost many times that cost.

There is nothing Apple does that even remotely resembles such practices. I want to buy an Android? It'll take some time to migrate stuff, but I've done that before, it's not that hard, just time-consuming. It won't cost me multiple times the cost of buying another phone, and I won't lose any data.

> try making a backup of your iphone without icloud or itunes

Is offering a way to backup a device lock-in? It's the same as "oh no you have to use pg_dump to export a postgres database". Also, there are 3rd party apps you can use to backup your phone. And if you make local un-encrypted backups with iTunes, there are many tools to extract stuff like your messages history, and if you really need to - you can just find the right file, fire up sqlite and browse/recover them that way.

> try sending GPS coordinates to a non iphone

Whatsapp can do that, Google hangouts too - there's nothing stopping an app from doing that? What's your point? That you can't send an iMessage to a non-iOS device? I suggest you have a good look at all the alternatives, which can be installed without a problem on an iOS device btw.

> try exporting your contacts to a non iphone

I've done this on multiple occasions. I've had a harder time exporting contacts from Google than from iCloud/iOS devices. Apple simply uses the vCard standard.

The App store would be a vendor lock-in if I could only install Apple made software from it, which is not the case. I use many competing services and apps on my Apple devices.

And yes, ALAC was a problem for a while, but they did release the en/decoder source code under apache2 license in 2011. There are other things that smell a lot more like vendor lock-in: Siri and the maps integration in iOS, but again, that's more an inconvenience than a real hard lock-in.

I was reading it regularly for quite a few years, maybe 4-5 years IIRC, before finally deciding to sign up. No idea why I waited so long, I guess I was more into the articles than the commenting side of things. Dumb of me!
One of the many reasons you have code reviews. A formal review isn’t even necessary, since the first time anyone but the author sees the code, the ensuing ridicule will ensure that it never happens again.

OTOH, one of things hammered into me at Microsoft was “sample code becomes production code”.
If space utilization is the issue then use a 2.5mm jack. Like Palm (before HP) did over 10 years ago. Waterproofing a jack is not any harder than doing it for USB.

Eliminating the jack entirely just means I'll be looking elsewhere for my next phone and I've bought a lot of Google phones.

I see Bitcoin an amazing store of value as it is. Of course I'm excited for the improvements that are coming to it (ring signatures being used to increase privacy of the system, Schorr signatures to make multiple signatures aggragatable).

Cryptography is going through a new booming period.

Just skip the hype part and look at the math part..if an improvement is not using cryptography (for example the elliptic curve group directly), it most likely is not critical for scalability of the system.
You always need a transaction, even just for reads. Otherwise you are not reading from a single consistent snapshot of the world.

I'm sorry but I just can't take MSSQL Server seriously when it cannot export valid CSV. It does not escape commas for CSV or tabs for TSV, and has no option to. If they had their own flat file export that could be re-imported I could forgive it because I could write my own library for that format, but there simply is no way to cleanly export data from MSSQL. I had to write a SQL query that was ~2000 lines of 80 columns in order to export a database to CSV and properly escape each field manually, and it took FOREVER.
I'm not really surprised, but I also don't really understand the comparison. Facebook/Twitter distribute news, they don't create it.

If you're speaking strictly of smartcards (in the form of cards) you're probably right, but I meant all devices with cryptoprocessors, especially usb tokens.

For what I can remember when I looked into them, a few months ago, keys/data storage, signing and decrytpion where at least as much advertised as authentication.

And in most cases external confirmation is useful/strongly advised for authentication as well.

Case in point, I personally needed a token for code signing, it's almost impossible to find one with a pinpad.
It's easier if you settle on a smartcard + smartcard reader (which I don't think many developers do).
Yep. Any amount of emails over 60 per minute shuts off the person's inbox. This limit is calculated before applying any filters, so obvious junk still trips the limit.
The biggest problem IMO is being able to stomach trading a very large fraction (or more likely, multiples) of your annual salary and not being affected by very large red numbers. If you stop thinking rationally, you lose. If you experience too much stress, might as well sell your time instead and avoid the drug habits.

In other words, you have to be able to put your house on red, and restrain yourself from doing it unless you're certain the numbers are in your favour.

I don't think many people can do this.
1) They could fork it, adopt standardized changes, but continue to innovate on it if they like

2) That wasn't my point. WebKit derivatives clearly won. Does Firefox even need to also own an engine when their goals seem to be entirely around the browser product?
I can't quite tell from the current replies if the mechanism of what is going on is clear. Apologies if this is redundant.

What is happening is a thermal management issue. "turbo" lets you boost briefly to speeds that will cause the chip to overheat if run long enough. Their idea to manage this was to play hot potato with which core gets baked. As soon as it reaches critical temperatures, they turbo up another core and the OS migrates threads.

So one part of the chip gets hot while the other cools off, and then they continue back and forth.Personally I'm surprised this doesn't crack silicon or pop bonds.

With regards to overclocking, I guess I didn't know you could overclock a single core? Is this pinned or is it adjusting what the "turbo" frequency is?

In anycase, if there is a differential in speeds among cores, the hot potato thing will probably happen. And if you overclock it will probably happen more.

The only way to combat this would be to either mess with the windows cpu driver and put your cpu at risk, or make the speed homogenous among all cores.
