Currently? I run them on separate ports and use axios[0] to make requests against Buffalo routes. I had to use the github.com/rs/cors[1] package with Buffalo for CORS so that Vue doesn't yell at me. So I run `buffalo dev` in one tmux pane and `yarn dev` in another.

Here is what the inside of the <script> portion of a component may look like: https://gist.github.com/howdoicomputer/cdadba6e47021ba90b7f7...

And here is the code for adding cors to Buffalo: https://gist.github.com/howdoicomputer/17366df6cd7b8208a22a8... I got that from a PR for pre-app handlers. [2]

Eventually, I'll hook everything up to Nginx for deployment.

> The China that tries to have trade both ways by forcing Hollywood to portray China positively just to get 50% of what they should at the Chinese box office?

What's this one about?
I think you're falling into the common western trap of misunderstanding Chinese culture by projecting our cultural proclivities onto their civilization.

The Chinese educated and wealthy, for the most part, already believe they have the truth. (I'm not faulting them, in the west our wealthy and educated believe we have the truth as well. That's just how things work.)

And they don't come too much more wealthy or educated than Jack Ma.
It's also kinda hard to get a grasp on what "faster" means here. Some benchmarks clearly show a significant lead for Apple, but real world tasks on each chipset are comparable, if not Qualcomm-favourable, if comparing "equivalent" applications on iOS and Android. If Android could be installed (and properly integrated) on (recent) iPhones and iPads, then we'd have a fair comparison to draw I guess.
A lot of the foreign-for-tax-purposes funds of US corps is held in US bank accounts in the name of the foreign subsidiary of the US parent. It's not doing any particular good for the economy that is the legal home of the subsidiary except to the extent that it is taxes there.
We seem to argue a lot for people who agree so much.

My viewpoint is let marketing estimate the value of features, my job is to give them a rough estimate of how hard each one is to build, and they can decide priorities based on those two things, and tell me what to work on first. If I go too fast and lesser developers feel left out, I'm happy to pair program and do code reviews with them to help them improve.

Yea, all my projects have to have a defined release process (code freeze, final bug fixing/deferall, final acceptance tests), you can't kanban your way through that, but you can kanban your way to it.
I love Go, but there needs to be some work around dealing with the problems the community is solving via code generation.

I feel like a lot of the things I find tedious about Go should be much easier to generate somehow so I can get on with what I was trying to do. sqlboiler is an interesting version of something that Go by-it-self can't provide without code generation if you require not using reflection.

Otherwise, I like the language a lot. I mainly love it's simplicity to deploy, good cli, and low memory foot print. I also like that it's very easy to read, that the community is focused on "reading code", and that there are many good libraries out there now in addition to the standard library.

Started looking at Scala recently, and I'll probably play around with it, but it just seems Go is so much nicer to use for the kinds of projects I'm trying to develop.

How to Be a Functional Workaholic: Ways to not let the hustle destroy you
If an Android phone connecting to the company’s WiFi or the user’s email and whatnot is enough to compromise the infrastructure, then the company has bigger problems.

I’ve worked in companies with liberal BYOD policies for portable devices, but also tasted really restricted environments and such environments are basically highly regulated security theaters.

Users do stupid things of course and in corporations it’s worth it to restrict their devices, but restricting developers on what they can install and do on their own devices has a negative ROI and doesn’t go well. If you can’t trust a dev to manage his own phone, you can’t trust him to build your infrastructure either.

And yes, we make mistakes as we are only human, which is why a phone should not be enough to compromise that infrastructure anyway.

PS: your mention of that Twitter account is creepy.
Considering this is DNS there has been a historical limit of 512 bytes. Despite this not usually being a limitation now you are really pushing the ideal packet size with hundreds of answers each of which are multiple bytes. High chance of packets being dropped.

I disagree about its impact. He legitimizes the oppression of the Chinese people with his presence; he says 'this is ok'.

It is against their immediate financial interest; my whole point is that there are other interests too.

What don't you like about Go's GC?

Compared to Hotspot, it doesn't STW; it makes a different throughput/latency tradeoff that is more suited for its application domain; and it's actually needed a lot less often because the compiler can put many objects on the stack.

The Questions You Should Never Answer During a Job Interview
That's a debate tactic for authoritarians in the US as well.
I think these are different issues over different products.

Google should take the high road and keep YouTube available as broadly as possible. YouTube shouldn’t care about Nest product availability.

This would be similar to CBS blocking Wal-Mart mentioned in shoes because they wouldn’t sell Westibghouse TVs.

The reprisals aren’t similar.

The scary bit is that it reenforces that Google doesn’t view the internet as open. Could you imagine YouTube blocking the Opera Browser? They shouldn’t try to bundle services unnaturally.
> I don't think most functions end up having an error result by convention -- many functions never return errors.

Only the most trivial functions don't have the possibility of error. And if a function doesn't have an error condition today doesn't mean it won't be changed to have one tomorrow.

Java has ruined too many programmers on exceptions by making them checked and making you do a lot of unnecessary try/catch dancing. A program should only have a few key try/catch blocks in the places where recovery is possible and it should be only concerned with what it can recover from. This obsession with every error that any method can throw/return is entirely the wrong way to deal with exceptional conditions. Therefore, error handling in Go is as backwards as it comes.
Hm, my comment doesn't show up in the FCC tool provided. Strange.
> The China that's building artificial islands to get access to the South China Sea / East Sea?

This claim would make more sense if first a marketing campaign removed "China" from the name of these seas from history.

edit: some people are complaining that only the name is not enough for a country to build infraestructure around it. What is it different than for example US fourth fleet stationed close to Brazil and Argentine or any other american fleets? This fleet is enough to wage war against any or even all latin america countries.

In face of current developments, I fully support China construction in that vital area for their economy. My country should answer the same way if you ask me.
It seems to me up to 8 records (ie. 8 IPs) per endpoint (like "api.mysuperwebsite.com" will return up to 8 IPs that can serve the request for that endpoint). That would mean that you can have hundreds of endpoints, but each of them would return up to 8 records. I wonder if there are more than 8 corresponding IPs, how the returned ones are selected (besides the health check), but that's a different question, I guess.
Economically things have been liberalized. Politically they have not. This has worked out OK for a lot of people (although it must be said others have been left behind), but it is not really the model people predicted for China.
Yeah, this is how democracy fails.

I don't think Jack Ma is at a place to tell other companies what to do given Alibaba itself benefits from the government's shield that keeps foreign competitors away. In the long run, an Alibaba monopoly formed of protective policy will be detrimental to the Chinese consumers.

P.S. I am Chinese and hold a neutral stance on US/Chinese political systems, but economics common sense tells me Jack Ma spat out quite some hypocritical BS there.
As a power user, I'm still looking for a good ARM battery efficient 2-in-1 to use as a light laptop and tablet that runs Linux. Not to use as a production machine but for content consumption. Being able to continually read a book or article while coding or performing a task on production machine would be better then having to swap between the two on one computer. Wouldn't choose Intel for that.
I'm pretty sure this is from the Windows RT days and doesn't cover the new-ish developments. Whether it holds true or not remains to be seen.
The thing is the magnitudes are different. Calling them both "getting thrown under the bus" suggests they're equivalent.

The rich (myself included in that statement) are doing just fine, and could shoulder a little more without major setbacks. The poor are already dealing with a system that is bringing social mobility to a halt.
I'm responding to your comment about parsing, which doesn't jibe with reality. It's not a question of data science, just of what's visible to the naïve byte-driven approach.

E.g. in PDFs malicious JavaScript might be buried in an XFA stream with /Type /EmbeddedFile and /Filter /FlateDecode -- a ZIP file, in other words. Nothing about this is suspicious; benign PDFs do it too.

Without looking inside the stream, you can't know whether it's bad. The rest of the PDF is incidental and can be swapped out with no change to the attack.

Can your approach produce a model to detect these PDFs? Sure, by overfitting a small/homogeneous data set. Which, to be fair, is almost impossible not to do, because sourcing and curating data is the hardest part of security-related data science. But in the wild, your miss rates will skyrocket.

This will all make more sense if you ever deploy. Then you'll see issues even in your PE model, for example with installers, signed files, parasitics, generic packers, p-code, DLLs, drivers, on and on.
> There are tests to distinguish gold from silicon. And so there will be for however your machine works.

Unless something was coded wrong, gold inside the simulation will give the same numbers as gold outside, so you can't tell which is which.

Let me be clear here. You don't touch the machine directly, you get the numbers the simulation spits out. The 'proof of concept' interaction is that you are on a video call with the atoms and photons inside the simulation. The video looks like a person, and your job is finding any difference between it and a video call with a real person.

> Something not being the thing it is simulating entails there will be tests to distinguish it.

That implies that the atoms and photons are being simulated incorrectly. Are you saying it's not possible to have an accurate simulation of atoms and photons?

> A simulation of an animal does not live in the world

The simulated atoms interact with a simulated cage, so they should give the same results despite being mere electricity.

> I would guess the tests will always, actually, be quite simple -- perhaps not expressible as a single conversation -- because somehow like a chess game it has every infinite sequence of conversations available to it.

> Perhaps, in a novel social situation adapting to evolving minds as they respond to each other.

> The question is then: "What does Kenneth think about the audience's laughter?"

The simulated atoms will change simulated orientation the same way real atoms would. If you look for physical evidence of learning you'll find the same molecules moving the same way. Why would the simulation fail this test?
Glad to see this up here. There's a ton of carefully crafted, targeted pro-China propaganda directed at the United States. Great effort should be exerted to identify this propaganda and remind ourselves and everyone else that China is: a repressive regime in which citizens lack basic freedoms that people in the free world take for granted on a daily basis.

The original version played YouTube videos without any ads, subscriptions, next video recommendations, auto-play and other things that Google thought were necessary for YouTube and its content creators. Amazon was basically stealing content from its creators and not even indirectly compensating them.

>Sounds like this is Google trying to exert leverage on Amazon.

Perhaps, but why should Google help Amazon sell their products, using content from Google's properties, when Amazon blacklists all of Google's products on their store.

In this case, I did indeed mean more plausible in the sense of higher probability of being correct. If I remembered more of my Machine Learning classes I'd be able to quote you the mathematical proof, but it matches the intuition of Occam's Razor -- models with fewer parameters are, in general, better. You're less likely to overfit, etc.

> If it were, there would be no reason to be conducting studies like this

I don't understand why. The simplest model is to believe there's no relationship (zero parameters). The study gives evidence of a relationship (one parameter). The other commenter was suggesting a parabolic relationship (two parameters), an unnecessary complexity.

The best policy is to believe the simplest model that is consistent with the evidence. If a new study observes the behavior at 6 toys and 8 toys that doesn't line up with the previous study, then I might believe a more complex relationship. Or might go back to believing no relationship.

Flippant comments on twitter definitely don't reflect security policies! That phone doesn't have production access for obvious reasons.

You're right that security is a process. We're always working to harden and segment our internal services, as is best practice these days.

Ongoing professional development and training is important for our security staff (indeed, all our staff, because everyone matters for security). The security landscape is always changing, and it's not something that's ever "solved" - it's a situation to stay on top of.
> Huge upside with limited downside

From your perspective, sure, especially if you're only considering financial downside. There are huge non-financial downside risks, like staking your personal reputation on the performance of the 50,000 person company that you're running. Maybe you don't personally care about those other risks, but CEOs in that position do.

> encourages reckless risk taking

Not all CEOs take reckless risks.

> encouraging short term profit over long term value

This is a function of shareholders, not of CEOs.

> Is the CEO not an employee?

No, the CEO is an Officer of the Corporation and is literally held accountable for the performance of the company. An employee is not. The CEO and CFO of public companies can go to jail for misleading investors, insider trading, falsifying financial reports, etc. There is no such law that holds employees accountable for those things.

> Why would he be owed a share of the capital gain, and other workers not?

Because he owns stock. Anyone is free to buy shares of a public company. Any employee can buy stock and therefore take a share of the capital gain. There are lots of companies that give workers options and even stock grants. CEO compensation packages are designed to be heavy on stock so that the incentive to increase shareholder value becomes personal.

You have made some tangentially valid points, but those comments have nothing to do with entrepreneurship in China, which is the context of the article. The title is in response to criticisms that US companies find it hard to setup shop in CHina. Jack claims that Chinese companies find it hard to be successful in the US market too. Anyway, I'm hoping you'll read the article :)

Also, just a suggestion, but if you're a US citizen, don't be so quick to point fingers at other countries. If you want to divorce yourself from the actions of your government, you personally can claim to be on some sort of moral high ground, but when generalizing the morality of countries' domestic/foreign policy, nobody is a winner here.
Thank you for posting the numbers to back this up.
It's because we see TV and Internet as different media entirely, even if they deliver the "same" content. That is outside of the scope of NN discussion currently. In the same manner, newspapers and TV are subject to different regulation even if both deliver the "same" news. It's hard to come up with rules which would apply for all media - even maxims like the 1st amendment aren't simple to implement.

In theory, the problem you refer to should be addressed by anti-monopoly laws (NN is a tool to address a different problem).
It seems to have mostly been a bunch of programmers from the start and it was just mostly men. That has implications for group norms. Groups that are entirely male do things differently than mixed gender groups. This is typical of, for example, military culture and fraternities. It has been studied and documented.
