Tried also to clone the github repo and compile locally but got tired of fixing dependencies and stuff after a few compiler errors.

USB hubs used to be this way, but presumably they've finally got those right.

Not necessarily. I purchased a 10-port hub just a couple years back that was internally three 4-port hubs chained serially. The OSX USB stack couldn't see devices connected to the last four ports...
Based on my time tracking, around 6 hours. Sometimes less with lunch, but on average I spend 1/4 of my day taking breaks.
So do you count your work hours as 3 hours or 7? And curious, if you try and optimise for more 'real work' time? I feel I'm quite hard on myself and consider it unnatural if I read an article or even browse randomly at work.
IMHO storing cookies in a machine explicitly configured to block them seems to fit the "exceeds authorized access" language of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act.

First, it’s markdown based. That’s probably not an advantage for you, but it’s a syntax people are used too.

Secondly, syncing is built in. Sure you could use git on your org mode file, but that’s requires effort.

Thirdly, this handles attachments and images.

Fourth, the user does not have to learn EMacs.

Fifth, it runs on phones.

So it does have advantages for some people. If your already an orgmode master, it may mean less for you.

On the surface this new incident says Google doesn't care about privacy. Most agree with this assessment.

But taken a step further it seems fair to ask:

- Has Google lost its edge? Why has nefarious replaced innovation?

- What else are they doing that we don't yet know about?

- Is it time for Google to update its biz model so it isn't so dependent on being so driven (to desperation)?

- Finally, is it time for the market to reconsider Google's role in defining our collective future?

On a personal note, if I can be fairly certain Apple isn't going to "pimp my data" I would give an iphone a serious consideration.
We're not in the U.S. and my friend has since moved on to much greener pastures. I don't know the specifics of his employment contract but I believe software development is one of the roles specifically exempted from "reasonableness" requirements for overtime where I live. It was still a crappy thing to do to him (and made me feel totally vindicated in my initial cynical attitude to the whole thing.)

mbed is only for ARM based systems (license limitation, not technology related), and in the embedded world there's much more than ARM.

FreeRTOS is easy to use on any and all CPU architectures, and is much more common. Actually, FreeRTOS is the most popular RTOS in the embedded world with Linux, and uptrending (see https://m.eet.com/media/1246048/2017-embedded-market-study.p... slides 62/63). This is a survey of professional embedded developers, not newcomers. Notice than mbed doesn't even show up. My feel is that mbed can be attractive to newcomers in embedded (easiness), but has not (yet?) much traction with people already doing embedded dev.
I wouldn't go that far, though it's sort of a flawed analogy for comparison.

Economics generally is a field where lots of people hold on to their prior beliefs, and those beliefs are difficult to change, even in the face of new evidence and data. Even though most economists agree with each other about the basic sort of stuff that you learn in undergraduate classes, there's lots of disagreement when it comes to broader, value-judgement type questions. There's also a lot of disagreement about what data means that is difficult to resolve with more studies, and studies are hard because we can't do double-blind control trials of macroeconomic policy.

So, it's not necessarily unusual for economists to express crackpot-sounding opinions on matters of public interest without actually being crackpots within their field. Stiglitz has some weird ideas (I seem to remember he suggested the government should pay people to dig ditches and fill them back in to get out of the recession), and they may even be wrong (I myself don't really agree with him), but he's not a guy who just says stuff out of nowhere to provoke people like Ann Coulter.
Identifying a problem caused by a monopoly is not the same as having to provide a solution for it. Some sort of regulation. No-one said they had to do it free.
I sympathize with this being in a similar professional situation and having once been introduced to this field via Hofstadter. His musings are usually on a distinctly symbolic level however, and though it is not my intention to defend a kind of results-only pragmatic approach, I do concern myself with strategies for progressively reaching better models of intelligence and their realization in contemporary hardware in particular. What, for instance, is your opinion about Hinton's recently published capsules idea?

That's a very noble and really naive thought.

Ad pushers have repeatedly shown that they cannot be trusted with our bandwidth and browser resources, they will always try to find the most insidious ways of inserting themselves into our lives, and try to track our every move, no matter how unwelcome they are.

Add to this the long history of malware using ad networks as an attack vector, and you have a very good case for simply blocking everything, in the name of privacy and security.

I hate ads, both for the above mentioned reasons, and because I find them extremely obnoxious (yes, even simple text ads), so I block everything with extreme prejudice. I am also on the "no mailed ads, ever" and the "you will be fined if you ever call this number with advertising" registries. My eyeballs, my attention, my PC, my OS, my browser, my home. Anything I don't trust and don't explicitly allow can just buzz off and leave me alone.

And many many don't. It's not a requirement to have a passport or driving license to open a bank account, or to sign up with a credit agency (although many/most lenders will want some ID to actually lend to you).

I don't have a british passport, a british drivers license, but I do have a NI number. I can vote, I can open bank accounts, I can get amazon parcels, I can do normal daily things without them. The only people who have my NI number are 1) the electoral register, 2) my employer, and 3) hmrc (as far as I'm aware at least).

I've not shared it with Amazon (who are the company mentioned in the post), or with my utility provider, or with my broadband provider. I've also not given them my passport or drivers licence, and yet they all seem perfectly capable of verifying I am who I say I am, all without me having any form of national ID.

I've played with a bunch of note tools, but once you need collaborative and painless synchronisation across platforms, your options really shrink. (I ended up with Google Keep, but it's not ideal.)

American tech companies

Having worked in Germany and Switzerland, I can tell you how many hoops my employer had to jump through to make their software engineers eligible (!) to work on the weekend.

By law, only "essential" personnel can be required to work weekends. All exceptions have to be white-listed on a case-by-case basis.

In one case, I had to be present at a 8am meeting on a Monday, in a town 5 hours away. Since trains didn't run until 5am, my employer shelled out for 150% travel time on sunday. And they didn't grumble about it.

If fewer companies could get away with paying "an extra pizza", I have the feeling that a lot of "essential work over the holidays" suddenly becomes non-essential really quickly.

Screensharing is absolutely essential. In these days, it should be table stakes. Much as I sometimes hate it in general, it's a huge point in favor of Skype for Business; being able to step into a screenshare or a whiteboard is invaluable.

A few points from my own experience:
- Competitive advantage.
Providing open source drivers/stacks will in many cases provide insight into implementation details you do not want competitors to easily understand. Also, complex software stacks (the generic parts) could be recompiled by a competitor into a "free" stack of their own. Closed source provides a barrier for competitors to entering the market by cheating/stealing.

In addition, all silicon have bugs that you don't always want your competitors to know about by seeing the workarounds in SW. They will use that against you when trying to replace your chip in a product.

- Customer support and liability

With limited customer support resources, you don't want to debug your product for a customer without knowing exactly what code is running. This applies both for the end product and the silicon vendor. As an example - what happens if a modified driver bricks the product?
This is completely normal, just like any (web,ios) app, apps are generating analytics point to know how the app is doing, and where to improve. If an app doesnt have a 3rd party analytics tool, you can be almost certain they are using an inhouse tool.

These tools never really track individual users outside of the app context.

If the service name is not an acronym, then they choose whatever sounds nicer, i.e.

What is PHP like nowadays? I know it has a bad reputation and a history of kitchen sink design but have they managed to tame it into something more sensible? Do the docs help steer developers away from legacy issues and common bad patterns?

I think it's more of a devkit. Not something you build a consumer product around.
When I worked in the Pentagon, everybody in our office had these to switch between the classified and unclassified computer systems.

Everyone is responsible for the consequences of his own actions. What did we expect?

It would certainly be an improvement and it would give more leverage in avoiding regulatory impositions that in the long term are certainly deleterious (for all).

Perhaps I'm naïve, but I see two possibilities: the acceptance of the overreach in regulations/fines/.., or a self-limitation of the monopoly.

But I'm certainly not in the position to answer the question.
Seems like a solid gradually improving release and according to some benchmarks [1] and notes from the development team, improved performance as well. Nothing like the jump the ecosystem enjoyed from 5.6 to 7.0, but still around 10% on average.

> What is PHP like nowadays? Would anyone recommend it for new projects?

It is not bad at all but since there are so many good/better alternatives I would never start a fresh project with PHP nowadays.

The only reason would be if you have a team with PHP experts - then PHP would be the obvious choice.

It's not a percentage, you pay the same fee whether you're sending 20 cents or 20 million, you're paying for the space your transaction takes up on the block.

It's actually not even that, the miners just choose the transactions that pay the highest fees each time they create a block, to maximize their revenue, so you can choose whatever fee you're willing to pay and it might or might not be included depending on what other people are willing to pay.

Outside of using emacs, which I don't, orgmode is rather useless in my experience and at some times even a major pain.

Anecdotal, I still use a KVM, for a specific use case. My PC has 2 monitors. My 1st monitor is standard usage, but my 2nd monitor is also used by my partner's PC. If she wants to use her computer, she gets the 2nd monitor (and the speakers) but otherwise I got a 2nd monitor to use.

Practically, it saves me from having to use another set of speakers (you would not use 2 sets of speakers at the same time and I usually use headphones) and it also saves me from having to have or use 3 monitors which takes up more space and costs more.

My partner doesn't use her computer a lot. When she does, all the hardware is available for her. I use the 2nd monitor during development, gaming, watching movies, and RDP session.

As per some comments, I don't see how a VM would replace this use-case but I do understand its niche. Still, it saves us space.
If we compare only fluctuation down, then except for the first bitcoin bubble, they are actually the same magnitude difference: around 2x

We will start seeing such news more often. Privacy is a real concern in the AI world and either by machines or humans, plain sensitive data is being processed in most of the cases. Usually humans require to access the raw data in order to label it to train or tune the algorithms. The data ends up being accessible and often, by cheap labour as this is a very expensive process in the current state of AI.
but then how would a company that need to verify your identity before providing you a service do so? I m talking about things such as transferwise.com (or, even airbnb, which, if i were a host, i want to know who i m hosting).
> Being the first to lay eyes on something is not typically what we mean, in science, by discovering it.

Yes it is. Take Pluto, for example. Astronomers predicted Pluto mathematically from other planets' orbits decades before it was 'discovered':

> Subsequent observations of Neptune in the late 19th century led astronomers to speculate that Uranus's orbit was being disturbed by another planet besides Neptune. (Edit: changed quote to correct one.)

> Pluto was discovered by Clyde Tombaugh in 1930 [...]

> On February 18, 1930, after nearly a year of searching, Tombaugh discovered a possible moving object on photographic plates taken on January 23 and 29.

>I doubt it since JSX tags don't support generators as an attribute or name

Not currently, but we do have some plans regarding do-expressions, generators, and JSX. So * might get a meaning, even though not in attributes but children.

>My main point is that the empty tag feels, well, empty and made without a real purpose, in part because it's just so foreign compared to HTML (which is what JSX is based on?) as this kind of thing is never found in HTML.

I think most React users in practice don't touch HTML that often. JSX has quite a few differences with HTML, and we don't really plan to bring it closer to HTML in the future. It is more important to us to make JSX pleasant and convenient to everyday React users than it is to have 1:1 mapping to every HTML concept.

>ReasonML is pretty specialized and much less popular, as well as has a different set of users, than React.

I would argue that people using ReasonML today are the same kind of early adopters (and often even the same people) that started using React four years ago when the ecosystem didn't exist (and shaped that ecosystem). I trust their judgment.

>If you had told me a product in the same category as React, like Angular, Vue, Ember, Ractive, etc., used that syntax, I would be much more receptive

By that logic, we could dismiss React when it came out, because it was not like anything else :-) Give this syntax some time. It felt odd to me at first, after living with it for a few months it feels very natural. I'm sure you'll get to like it eventually too. At that point it might feel odd that other libraries don't provide this syntax.
