Aside note: Why is every article featured here about vue filled with people... talking about how they prefer using react? I don't see how it isn't annoying for everyone else and for themselves: I don't care about react and, thus, I don't read or even open links about it.

> I draw from this by implication that he believes there remains enough combustable material to start a firestorm in enough places to matter

Well recently the world has learned just how combustible many buildings are (Grenfell Towers) because they are covered in flammable cladding. We might not have a lot of wood construction anymore, but we've moved on from the concrete jungle as well.

How?

I'm not quite sure how the combination of a more consolidated industry and the removal of local studios results in stronger local voices.

a simple fix for this is to walk away from the most popular themes and IP, because they just don't matter.

Yes, are all despised by their rural neighbors. And vice-versa. But the bias is bidirectional: Those in the cities look at the rural folks with just as much contempt and disgust as those folks in the country look at the cities. Perhaps more.
You may be coming at this from the wrong direction. A really effective way to fight fire is, ironically, with fire. Controlled burns used to be a big part of the national park service's budget, but has since dwindled (perhaps because it's hard to measure performance?).

Fire is a natural part of the ecosystem, and by controlling when and how it burns, we help keep it in check instead of it turning into mega fires.

Here is an article to get you started, https://www.npca.org/articles/819-fight-fire-with-funding-an...
Sorry but no.

In many places of the USA there is only a single ISP to choose from. Where as there are many search engines and many social networks available to choose from. No one has ever forced you to use Google or Facebook but for many people they are forced to use a particular ISP.
That's the same kind of thing companies will say when they remove a bunch of features and drop a product: it is to better serve you, the customer. Never mind that it is complete nonsense.
>> The article explains that the setup only allows choices to do optional actions, and it is assumed the players always do them. As "programming" human players to simulate a Turing machine would be too easy, they are replaced by mindless placeholders.

Yes, I read that bit - I didn't realise it was meant to make things "harder". That alone is good enough to convince me the proof is unnecessary. If you can make a proof easier, then you make it easier. There's no need for harder proofs.

Also, the fact that the proof does not involve human actions is another piece of evidence against the generality of the proof. You can model human choices as a distribution and allow for a fully-automated proof, that doesn't require human input in the strict sense. But leaving human actions out of the proof makes it less general- because the full game does involve such actions.
I've worked on more than my share of mapping systems in my life (disclaimer: I have not worked on Google Maps). The behavior you describe could very well be explained as follows: Many map data sets store, along with the geometry for the roads and points of interest, pre-baked positions at which the street names may be rendered. The map will never render a street name (or highway number) in a place other than where these candidate points are. In order to de-clutter, the mapping system simply selectively turns on or off these labels--it is not smart enough to move them around. So what you are likely seeing is: You zoomed into a stretch of road where no pre-baked candidate positions for the street name exist.
That's weird.

Much like the twitter bots to them, lip-service will be paid, action will be taken on some low hanging fruit so they look like they're working on the problem, but they will not make a concerted, legitimate effort to clean them up.
There are some really insane and conflicting local, state and federal laws in the US when it comes to running a business and especially if it's retail. It's easier to ignore for most small and medium business until there's an audit.
Personally, I find the whole sales tax situation to be borderline insane. I understand the need for local governments to have a revenue source - I totally do. However, it would make it easier for businesses to comply and local governments to maximise tax collection if they simply all get together and have one collection agency at the federal level which then splits the revenue according to place of sale and sends it back.
> Isn’t the problem with internet news is that it comes from everywhere, enforcing a kind of chaos of truth and a race to the bottom?

No, the problem with internet news is that it's getting easier and easier to promote a lie as truth. With a monopoly in media, promoting lies will become even easier (for that monopoly).

I never quite understood why the division of integers resulting in integers was a problem.

I get that for people with no knowledge of programming whatsoever it can be confusing, but it's standard behavior in nearly every typed language.

In C/C++, you divide an Int and you get an Int. If you want floating point division, you divide by a float. Problem Solved.

Almost EVERYTHING else could have been done with slow migration, or simply documenting the odd or quirky behavior.

Iterator variable leaking is just a result of poor programming.

Raw_input vs input could have been solved by slowly deprecating input. Or just left as is.

xrange is the same story.

It all seems like someone just decided to throw their hands up in a fit, throw their toys on the ground, and make a new Python. I enthusiastically jumped at Python 3 in the begining, then ran into problems, and crawled back to my 2.7 and decided I could let others fight the stupid cult war that was coming over 2 vs 3. I'd rather use a tool that works than change all my code over someone's idea that newer is better.
I don't understand, what's "no" about that? I didn't say sellers were required to pay tax, merely that paying tax was still required. As you say, it becomes the buyer's responsibility if the seller doesn't have a presence in the state.
>Do you think anyone other than the creator of the TCPIP protocol could fill that role regardless of age?

Not to argue with you but if we want to have fun with question... it's not "Chief TCPIP Evangelist" but "Chief _Internet_ Evangelist".

If "internet" is the key word, we don't have to be limited to an arbitrary point in the network stack and pick a person from it. If we go lower and more foundational to the "internet" which is "packet switching", maybe Leonard Kleinrock[1] is more appropriate "Internet Evangelist". If we go higher in the stack to http, maybe Tim Berners-Lee is the better fit for "Internet Evangelist".

If we really embrace "internet evangelist", maybe the best person is none of the technical guys but a 19-year old college dropout from Africa. Conceivably, that type of person would have more to gain from a better internet so his brand of "evangelism" for internet's future growth would be more effective than any of the older white guys from 1st world countries.

>Also, isn't there also an implicit age discrimination against younger people in any job spec when you say "X years experience"?

Sure. One could also argue that there's stealth age discrimination when your job requirements list "Rust programming language experience" since more 20-year olds than 50-year olds will learn that language.

I grew up in the Midwest (Kansas City) .The first problem is no one knows who is being described.

"Midwestern" - It's a term used by the media. They tell us it includes Oklahoma and North Dakota (which are insanely different?). It's supposed to include Chicago, Milwaukee, Omaha, and Topeka?

Half of the West coast thinks "midwest" includes the South?

They need a new term....badly.
Yes, and the BSD vis is part of MacOS which quite a few people use.

Because frankly Marx was not broadly concerned with discussions of morality and oppression of 'groups' in a general sense as you seem to be implying. He was quite strictly concerned with an economic analysis of capitalist exploitation, and not necessarily exploitation in our contemporary moral sense (as in child explotation) but more in the sense that we talk about exploiting nature, or a tool. Marx's analysis was almost purely an economic one, where he pointed out that the economic model of capitalism and our modern notion of private property created a class division based around the extraction of profits ('surplus value') from labour through the ownership and control of the tools of production. All 3 volumes of Capital are about this, and he spends little time discussing power or domination in a general way and basically almost none on racism, sexism, or colonialism except as they tie into capitalist exploitation.

The phrase 'cultural Marxism' only betrays how little right wing pundits who use this phrase actually understand of Marxian theory and postmodern cultural studies generally, since frankly the vaguely left wing strains of academic cultural theory spent the last 50 years _critiquing_ Marxism from the vantage point that it did not pay enough attention or have a meaningful theory to talk about these issues. Postmodernism and Marxism generally have been somewhat 'at war' within academia, though generally you'll find that the 'founding fathers' of cultural studies and postmodernism (say, Adorno, or Derrida, Foucault) themselves express admiration or sympathy for Marx himself though they rarely considered themselves Marxists per se. "Cultural Marxism" is kind of a misnomer -- they'd be better off saying "left wing postmodernists" or "liberal cultural relativists" or something, but those don't sound as boogeyman, do they?
I think both ways are simple enough to grok it doesn't really matter and just comes down to personal/team preference (personally, I prefer JSX).

The nice thing is Vue allows you a choice rather than making it dogma. As another commenter said, this can come in handy in certain situations (e.g. dealing with forms).
>God sacrificing his own Son, which is also Him, in place of all sacrifices.

The twist is more complex than that.

God is sacrificing his own son, which is also him, to himself, in order to satisfy rules that he himself also put in place so that he doesn't have to send people he created and loves infinitely to be tortured forever in a place he created because they broke rules they couldn't understand with consequences they couldn't comprehend.
The account of Jephthah is vastly different than of Abraham; though neither indicate any ambiguity on God's stance regarding child sacrifice.

Judges 11
1) The Spirit of the Lord had already come upon Jephthah before he made his vow; showing that God was already intending to give him victory. (v29)
2) Jephthah rashly made a vow to God of his own accord, which was never affirmed by God nor required by God. (v30-31)

Even on a surface level reading of the passage, it would be difficult to defend that it was ever God's desire that Jephthah sacrifice his daughter. And, if he knew the character of God as proclaimed by God himself in Exodus 34:6-7, he could have repented and received grace and he still would have had his daughter.

Re Smart Bathroom:

Every time I hear about all-knowing toilets, I continue to feel it’s putting the cart way ahead of the horse.

There’s a rule in medicine: don’t order a test whose outcome doesn’t change your decision. That’s not about cost-savings, it’s about avoiding false positives that make no sense in clinical context but raise flags that must be chased down.

This sort of thing is literally promising to just continually run un-merited urinalysis left and right.

“More data” is not inherently good. Without a framework of information for interpretation of that data, it will do far more harm than good.

Honestly, the reason so little tech disruption keeps happening in the provision of medical services: no one trying to “disrupt” bothers asking what is or is not useful. There are just some ideas completely out of touch with what people need or want or have friction over, and they just refuse to die because they’re the most obvious ideas to have if you’re unfamiliar with the territory.

I kind of see their point. It’s totally unprecedented for the WH to tell a company what they should get rid of to be able to pass a merger.
I completely agree with you, however I find this bit a little mysterious:

> With facebook actively suppressing certain ideologies

The only ideologies I've heard of Facebook suppressing lately are Neo-Nazi and alt-right groups following the Charlottesville stuff. I don't take issue with these ideologies being suppressed.

Am I missing something?

I'm really not understanding you.

1. Everything you said applies to undergraduate students.

2. Undergraduate students are more in need than graduate students, not to mention that graduate students are better off financially.

So, yeah.
That's great, but part of me thinks this should be a public service as well. Not everyone can afford a $60/year membership for a tool library, and there's probably an overlap with those that can't afford a $100 drill they are going to use 2x/year.

I believe most public libraries are free to join nowadays. It would be great for low SES people to have access to tools.
But it's about checking it compile time because of overhead not at runtime.
Not to mention how much Java is written in Ruby, C written in Perl, and so on. Where the round-hole syntax of one language/framework can be hammered into the square-hole of another, it will be.
A few weeks ago I was in a rural Minnesota bar watching the Packers only to hear some guy start making jokes about black female anatomy and picking cotton. He got some laughs and kept rolling from there. Jokes about menstruation/tampons/cotton picking fall pretty squarely in my "overt racism" bucket.
>Can you/anyone give me 3 solid cases where the flaw was in javascript and not the programmers understanding of the language ? I can't.

These were problems in various stages of JS's history, but not necessarily now:

Browser differences in javascript by not having a good specification or strong governing body.

Not having block-level scope despite convention in other C-like languages.

Optional semi-colons.

typeof inconsistencies.

Another problem with JS changing so much is developers picking up the language at various points in that development.
How many products actually start getting traction? How many of those then need to scale beyond a single node? How many of those running on a $5/month plan will it take to make up for the dev and support costs?

I'm sure they can easily scale their plan down to the $50/month range with smaller instances but they're a business too and having a cost cut-off makes sense. The companies that need the scale will find them regardless, and they have the Citus Warp product as stated in the article to make migrations easy.
That symbol's history far predates its quite recent re-definition as a hate symbol in the western world.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swastika (a wee bit of emphasis added below):

> The swastika is an ancient religious icon used in the Indian subcontinent, East Asia and Southeast Asia, where it has been and remains a sacred symbol of spiritual principles in Hinduism, Buddhism and Jainism. In the Western world, it was historically a symbol of auspiciousness and good luck,[5] but in the 1930s, it became the main feature of Nazi symbolism as an emblem of Aryan race identity, and as a result, it has become stigmatized in the West by association with ideas of racism, hatred, and mass murder.

> Some of the earliest archaeological evidence of the swastika in the Indian subcontinent can be dated to 3,000 BCE.

3000 BCE by far predates the last ~85-90 years of its redefinition.
I bet a person could make a lot of money with an idea like this!
On the contrary.

Google achieved such high computational power from building custom chips. No one in the 90s could have afforded the custom ASICs that ran "Deep Blue", and certainly no one except Disney in the 90s could afford the giant cluster of computers used to compute "Toy Story".

The story of "PC Revolution" is always Big Company spends billions on custom ASICs -> hardware companies take notice -> NVidia releases "Volta" which emulates the TPU in 2018. (https://devblogs.nvidia.com/parallelforall/inside-volta/)

Soooo yeah. We're actually really, really close to consumer-level TPUs. Within a year or two. Google's secret sauce is being replicated by hardware companies now, and consumers will likely reap the rewards.

There's always a few years of delay between state-of-the-art custom machines and wide-spread adoption of consumer hardware.

-----------

Despite their success in these games, I'm personally not really sold on the broad applicability of Neural Networks. But hey, I'm willing to be proven wrong. There's a lot of experimentation being done and the "TPU" architecture is definitely very interesting (and the way "Tensors" map to simple linear-algebra problems is really what makes all of this possible).

I really wouldn't be too gloomy about Google's headstart. They did invent the TPU architecture after all, its only fair that they get to play with it for a few years before the mass market consumers can.
And thus as sole power to rule the solar system the swiss rose from the ashes
Right, this applies to all. Virtual is not working out so well in a social sense. We seem to have lost touch with reality.
Getting good ideas/big problems is VERY important, so I applaud that.

But, the more important question we should be asking is, are these problems of customers who "have their hair on fire?". If not, then it'll probably go nowhere. How much are customers willing to spend to have these problems solved? This reminds of that Website that answered just that question. I just can't remember what it was. does anyone else remember the name of that site? It was on HN about 3 to 8 months ago, if i remember correctly.
No offense, but I'm going to believe the SPLC in general all the same. They have a pretty good track record over the decades. Yeah, if they screwed up 2 things, that's not good and they should fix it. But, a 99.9% 'correct' rate is pretty damn good all the same.

You should email them and tell them though, I'm sure they would want to correct anything they are wrong about. Smearing people incorrectly is something I imagine they would want to make right.

The problem of advertisers not yet knowing how to collect every bit of data about a child's life starting at birth.
Hmm, so after reading the article I searched for: dell linux laptop and clicked the first link to dell.com

On the product page for the 13 inch XPS Linux I saw a notification: "Sorry, this item is not available anymore for purchase online. Please see our recommended replacement product." And a quick Ctrl-f for 'recommended' or 'replacement' turned up nothing. When I went to the product browser and clicked Operating System the only choices were Windows 7 and Windows 10.

After this experience I'm not entirely convinced Dell actually sells Linux laptops.
> Because in the US, the 'free press' is an extension of the First Amendment

Not true. While the First Amendment does provide many protections for free press and there are no national press shield laws, many states in the US provide additional free press protections: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shield_laws_in_the_United_Stat...

Please stop trying to hijack discussion of free speech and free press (both of which are human rights / social institutions that extend beyond the scope of protections provided via the court due to the First Amendment) into being discussions of the First Amendment in the name of "education".
Not sure where you are, but people line up here. For buses, people will often form one orderly line, because there is only one entry. On trams and trains, people will stand next to the doors and move to the side to let people off. I have seen this in Sydney, Melbourne and Adelaide.
