I don't think the intention was to block access to the web site. The problem was that Amazon was using a proprietary native app to access YouTube videos, bypassing the web site and without support for any of Google's monetisation strategies they have in their own YouTube apps. That's clearly a foul and has nothing to do with the open web.

Arguably Google went too far by blanket blocking based on device, but it might have been the only viable option available to them. Now that Amazon has folded and made the app a wrapper to the YouTube web page rather than accessing the videos directly, I expect Google will enable access again.

You don't think a tripling of acid attacks, a 20% increase in violent offenses, a 24% increase in knife attacks, a 42% jump in gun offenses - all in such a short amount of time, amounts to a wave of crime?
The important part of the law regards to carrying: in Portugal, carrying small amounts (eg. up to 1gr of heroin or 25gr of marijuana leaves¹) is considered to be for personal use and decriminalized. Is the same true in Germany?

¹As defined in the law, but prosecutors and judges can and often do avoid charging people with crimes if they have a bit more and there's no evidence of trafficking.
It's a bit silly to avoid API breakages by always returning a nil error.

If a function is changed to now return an error, it's API breakage. I would consider it a breakage if it previously return just nil or not since the previous "always nil" is documented or implicitly contracted as part of the API.
I'm pretty sure starting from zero is the point of the Leela-Zero. If they started from Stockfish, it wouldn't be a replication of AlphaZero.
We should never downvote a comment just because we disagree with it. We should only downvote comments that don't contribute to the discussion. If someone is blatantly wrong, their information could be a common misconception that needs to be addressed and seen by everyone. Comments we disagree with are most often very good additions to the discussion and should be upvoted, even if they're factually inaccurate but there is a comment that corrects them. We have to include more ideas, not filter out the ideas we disagree with -- that creates an echo chamber which helps no one.
How to Create Simple Interactive Pie Chart with JavaScript
I've had conflicting advice about complete transparency - if we give the entire algorithm, then that helps attackers find the exact surface that will get them in, so we don't publish the full ruleset we use.

Here's an example of some inputs that go into it though: we store a cryptographic token in a cookie which tells us the first time your account successfully authenticated from a computer. If we have a history of you using the same computer over multiple years, that's different than a new computer. But cookies can be cloned, so it's only a signal, not proof in itself.

If it's from the same IP address as multiple successful logins in the past, that's a signal.

We're not the only site that uses methods like this to help identify people when they've lost their password. People make mistakes. Taking a hard line "you lose your password, you lose your entire email account with all its history, and you don't get your money back either" might sound attractive to a certain demographic. They are not the bulk of our userbase. Even locking people out for 24 hours is a pretty big imposition that you want to avoid if you're really confident (algorithmically) that it's the same person.

If people in the "security is more important than easy recovery" demographic haven't turned on 2FA yet, then they certainly haven't signaled that they want things locked down in case of doubt. Even of those who HAVE turned on 2FA, you'd be surprised at how many lose one or both of their factors.

It's easy to say "I won't mess up", but people do. Which is why our post today says in bold "If that happens, you will lose access to your account permanently."

>This is also the case in Go (panics and recover).

It is considered good style to not let a panic escape your library API unless something just went very severely wrong that the library could not possibly continue to function normally.

>This is also the case in Go. Errors do not retain anything about their state.

Errors are an interface, you can put any state inside it you want and I've frequently done so (retain line counts in parser or network data for example)
That solves nothing. The point was that you pollute the scope with error variables, leading to dangerous logic errors that can be hard to spot. Your snippet is no better than:

foo, err := getFoo()
if err != nil {
return nil, err
}

"err" still ends up in the scope.

1. Get a job when you have a good mentor, senior/lead dev that is actually doing his job, not just a manager. That person should be rather strict

2. Fix tons of bugs. You will get exposure to all kinds of issues and shortcomings that people before you made. Those who do not know history's mistakes are doomed to repeat them (or any variation of this quote)

3. Talk and work with others. Software engineering is a team sport. Surround your self with smarter than yourself, that often works best.

4. Teach others, share your knowledge. No matter if they are more junior or senior, it does not matter. That will make you understand problem even better.

5. Build simple things. KISS and done. Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication. Do not try to impress others with how complicated your software is, try to do that other way around if you have to.

"However, a source familiar with YouTube’s thinking told Variety Tuesday that this newer implementation also violated YouTube’s terms of service by layering voice control onto a web app that wasn’t designed for voice interaction."

Bullshit.

It gives his view on why repealing title II is good and makes some interesting points. I was wondering if you could share your thoughts on it.

> This is a config value

Indeed, but its something extra that _you_ have think about after you've setup your VPC (if youre on AWS) not only does it mean you can deploy/configure un routable IPs by accident, its using a mechanism that _slows down_ your VPC, and adds a minefield of confinguration errors. its just madness.

It's just a LAN, why would you ever statically assign IPs? especally at scale, especially if you have a dynamic ever changing workload. Deploy a pod, two network interfaces, macvlan & AWS does the rest. Put a cloudwatch alert for DHCP exhaustion, or put a resource limit in for each AZ.

Put it this way: Why do you want to have to think about subnets _after_ you've created your VPC? (unless you've reached a limit...)

Unfortunately / luckily (depends on who you ask and what the subject is) we don't have a single supreme court enforcing / interpreting law for the entire union.

In terms of gay marriage that is good for the US: I think if every state could decide it for themselves a lot of them wouldn't have by now. Look at how slow marijuana legalisation is in both the US and EU when states can decide for themselves.

I think my country NL has been at it solo for 40 years or so. It's easy to think things like these go like dominos but they really don't most of the time.

Although I'm glad the other EU nations can't for their ideas on us a lot of the time.. so it's a trade off I guess.
You're right but I don't follow. Do you have a point or did you just really want people to count countries in addition to relevant population numbers?

The most impressive use of the index card is probably the Mundaneum: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mundaneum .
Routing from LA to Pheonix via volunteered (albeit crippled) home/business lines seems like a fine solution. ie The mesh network connects cities through small slices of shared lines.

In that case censoring P2P connerilns would be ISPs next step, which would hamper a ton of progress, especially in regards to privacy.

Managing the functionality/thoroughput/UX of that kind of network sounds like a big challenge.

Having a good UX for rate limititing clients on volunteered lines, and good UX on how routes are temporarily "leased", might be places to start brainstorming.
> and in most contexts, you don't need to differentiate between facts and opinions on account of the difference being obvious

Unfortunately it is not me who needs to differentiate, and many seem to blindly assume statements to be as fact, when they are meant to be as opinion.

I agree that it is a waste, but I can't change the way my words are perceived, only the words that I use.
C++11 introduced utf-8 encoded string literals. However, when the parser was reading the characters in the literal, they were interpreted in whatever character set encoding the compiler was using (you could use escaped characters to represent unicode characters that had no representation in that encoding).

Yup. I ended up in my apprenticeship because during elementary school I wanted to go to the school where all my friends went even though my scores were better. Stupid I know but I was a kid that wasn't able to make reasonable decisions.

Yet I ended up through a apprenticeship in Software Engineering and I could go back at any time and finish my 12 years then go to university. Part of me wants to go study and get a degree, but all universities I inquired at rejected me for not having 12 years despite working for 8 years now.
It’s just a book. Without your mind to give it meaning, it has no meaning. If you’re so easily offended because you’re sensitive like a mimosa, it’s capitalism, don’t buy the book.

You had better concentrate on the examples if you want to learn something; don’t be such sensitive daisies.

And it’s the author’s book, he can and may put any kind of examples he wants; when you write your own book, you get to do the same thing.

Could not import OPML from Casts so I couldn’t try out the app. Bummer because I was looking forward to it.
Agree. And it is not clear if other factors aren’t responsible for the reduction in Portugal too. Like regular cigarettes aren’t cool anymore, people increasingly are looking for healthy living habits. Would be interesting to compare if cocaine use in other Southern European countries also reduced over that period.

It feels kind of awkward to try to ban cigarette while promoting cocaine use at the same time.

That being said as a libertarian I am of the opinion that it’s not for the state to tell people how to live their life, and if they aspire to become junkies, let them live.
I guess there would be a couple of approaches. (1) would be for some companies (possibly a consortium thereof) to build new infrastructure. (2) would be to force companies to lease out their existing infrastructure indefinitely. (Er, "rights to"—does that describe cases where the local government owns the infrastructure, but one company has an exclusive contract to use it for N years? It seems that case could be addressed by letting the contract expire and then only agreeing to nonexclusive contracts thereafter.) The first option seems to require less extreme intervention, so let's consider that.

What are the obstacles to (1)? There's the complaint in a sibling thread about "digging up the street to put in more cables". I suspect that if homeowners were given the choice of putting up with that in exchange for substantially reduced costs and/or higher bandwidth, many would take it, possibly enough for majority votes if it's the city government that makes that choice. The other question would be, is it economically feasible? There are high fixed costs, and some maintenance, and in exchange I guess whoever owns the new infrastructure can charge the use of it to new, competing ISPs. It'd probably pay for itself over some time horizon, but is the return better than investing the money in something else? I don't know the numbers on that.
Personally, I've written a lot of stuff in Go, it might not be a perfect language but it's certainly the most fun one. I can sit down, write 1k LOC and have implemented something that I can look at in 10 years and still know what I'm doing.

It has it's downsides but I love it despite those, errors could be better but it's mostly fine and I'd love some generics so I could optimize my storage structures (though by using a backing array and referencing indices helps a lot)
Carrying/Owning any amount of drugs would be illegal, though small amounts are rarely prosecuted when the general area has comparatively high amounts of addicts.
That's not very targeted. Real targeting would be using the contents of your email, iMessages, browsing history, etc.

Back when AlphaGo was playing Lee Sedol I was thinking about a chess playing version in TCEC.

The interesting thing is TCEC assumes a bit about the structure of the chess program. That is, the TCEC win-adjudication rule says that if both programs agree that one program is 6.5 pawns ahead for 8 turns in a row, they judge that program to be the winner.

But programs like Alpha don't have an evaluation function that operates in conventional units (like centipawns).
Wait, how's the 24h x 5000 TPUs relevant? That is training time, and that training corresponds to years and years of hardcoding evaluations in Stockfish, not to compute time during the match.
FWIW, most of those are not selling actual drugs; they're just scamming tourists. For example, the hashish they sell is actually a pressed laurel plant. Not only it's much cheaper for them, as they avoid the cops, since it's not a crime to sell laurel even under a false name.
Well... the thing is those guys really only approach foreigners. I am sorry for your experience, but as a nearly 30y old Portuguese who lives and works in Lisbon, I had that only happen to me once, and it was while speaking in English with a visiting friend.
It is true that it is too easy to be put on one of the two lower tracks during primary school. But there are multiple options (Fachhochschule, Berufsakademie) to go to university after you have finished your apprenticeship. Fachhochschule is free and in the case of the Berufsakademie you even get some money from a company while studying.
I agree. Placing a greater burden on the side of the producers to deal with the trash they produce seems like the most logical approach to me. If X company wants to make something with a bunch of plastic packaging they will have to pay for the impact that will have. If they want that to eat into their profits, fine, but I think the more likely scenario is that that they will pass as much of that cost on to consumers as they can, ideally also driving down demand for those products.

We're missing some kind of context here… Is the app on FireTV really just a webview, or do they intend to move to a webview by January 2018 ? If it's an app that uses the API, then Google is in their right to control how it's used; and they already did with many companies hacked apps, like Microsoft's Windows Phone app.

If it's just a web browser in full screen mode, now this is something else entirely; unless it has hacks that cater specifically to YouTube, then Google can just block those hacks from functioning whenever they want.

So which is it ?
