Don't be act like an idiot simply to make a point. You simply come across as some elitist programmer who can't be bothered to learn frontend tooling.

All of those technologies are simply Javascript running serverside (or developer clientside during the development).

I sent you a gulp example because gulp it's very easy to use and you can quickly build customized build processes with it.

"gulp-typescript-babel" is simply a wrapper for "gulp-babel" and "gulp-typescript" which are both simply Javascript libraries. Read their source, there's nothing complicated going on in there.

"gulp-typescript" simply wraps around "Microsoft/TypeScript" and make it easy to pipe into gulp.

"gulp-babel" simply wraps around babeljs and make it easy to pipe into gulp.

"babel" is simply a lib that polyfills and rewrite your next generation JavaScript into code that older browsers can understand.

You originally said "then you spend a month figuring out amd vs esnext vs systemjs and Babel vs browserify vs requireJS vs webpack vs god knows what else.". I sent you this snippet to show how simply it is to build TypeScript.

Oh look, I explained to you a "month worth of research" in a simple HN comment... ! You could have googled it and read a blogpost about it instead.

Sorry for being harsh but if you need a month to figure out how to run Javascript on your computer you need to consider a new career.

You're missing a few things. One, bike paths here are designed for low speed traffic, and narrow. In the last two years I've seen a lot of crashes from ebikes on the bike path I ride to work. Two, they are practically motor cycles now. Bigger tires, bigger helmets, faster speeds, all that, and no licensing required.

That's on roads. The off road side it is trail damage, people getting stuck out in places they normally couldn't go to, etc.
How does a data center support an authoritarian regime, and why don't Amazon's planned data centers in Saudi Arabia also support an authoritarian regime?
We are not DCAA compliant but that is a great idea. We are based out of Washington DC, so DCAA compliance might be something to look into. Thanks for bringing it to our attention.

PS: We are also creating an FAQ section and will include a question for DCAA compliance.
I agree 100%.

That said, the need for something like this almost outweighs the cost. But I so agree w/ what you're saying. That was my first thought—uh—so. much. access.

Before I sign up, I'd want to know what's safe, where, and why.

And more realistically, why not.
The true magical thinking here is that there is a difference where the similarity is so obvious and the origins are the same
Most modern front end frameworks are younger than Web Components. They've rebooted the spec at least once. Even after half a decade, there's still no good way of even managing state with Web Components.

Really I'm not sure what we're waiting for at this point. The only thing Web Components have really solved is component isolation, but that's not something folks really struggle with these days.
I think for an open discussion it is important to know who is part of the discussion. As an author you are putting a paper out there, and you do your best to make sure the paper is original, relevant and correct. As a commenter, you should also try to do your best, and the best way to assure that in my opinion is to attache prestige not only to papers, but also to comments. This includes negative prestige for making bad comments. That's why I would say a real name policy is important.
I'm also to worried about giving full access to my emails but I don't think that makes me a scared person. I think wrorrying here is perfectly fine and understandable.

i am questioning why they are using immensely popular and commensurately overpriced but yet woefully underspecced components instead of something better and/or cheaper

is it just because 'raspberry pi' makes for a hot title in a press release?
The article explicitly mentions it isn't likely applicable to support roles in a footnote.
Also, they only have to resell ADSL by FCC requirement. However, AT&T voluntarily resells their VDSL Uverse system. I actually went with a reseller in the past because they were still offering no data caps while AT&T was.

Easy - cheap and fast. I've never had coverage issues within 50 miles of a major metro area (where I spend 99.999% of my time). Paying 30% more to have coverage on every remote stretch of a roadtrip (when I'm typically trying to disconnect and/or listening to downloaded music/audiobooks) has never been remotely tempting.

Besides, I mainly mentioned Virgin as an example of where I expect all the carriers, the coverage leaders included, to go very shortly.

>what makes js one of the most used languages is it's crazyness

No.. it's ubiquity in the browser alone made it one of the most used languages. Obviously, when there is only one game in town, that game is going to be popular.

People hate javascript and its "crazyness" so much that the entire universe of modern web development was designed around using other languages which "compile" to it so that developers could avoid direct contact with it as much as possible. What other language gets treated like a contagion by its own users?
This reminds me of The Mysterious Island by Jules Verne.
> and some of that code is probably still running today.

A lot of that code is still being written today, which is one of the things that OP is trying to change.
I don't care about any of that. I'm fat and old now. I care about the danger of very high speed users who don't have the skill to handle their machines in close quarters with me, my wife, my kid on the bike paths.
I didn't realize there was a Linux version. I've been using this on Windows for years.
I lived 8 years in Finland.

Taxis were not expensive, they were also easily available and convenient, and an incredible lot of people used them. I mean, you could easily get taxis in the middle of the night in small towns (below 5000 inhabitants) or even more remote villages, and regular low to middle income people would use them with no second thought. Also drivers would not even complain if they called for a short distance trip.

It was a shock for me, coming from France, where nobody 'normal' would ever use a taxi in a 'normal' situation. And if you ever try, you generally do not try again: no availability, extremely expensive price, and generally, as a driver, a moron who complains about you or anything. So most French people only use a taxi every other year to get a ride to the airport, and that habit was so ingrained in me that I never got to initiate taxi rides in Finland because it does not fit in my mental model when I want to get somewhere. But Finns had no such problem :-)
I believe the barge is also tied up with the falcon heavy launch next week.
In California, what is now AT&T offered retail DSL below the cost to wholesalers, and was very slow to offer 'uverse' (adsl2 and vdsl, for speeds over 6Mbps) to wholesalers. For ADSL1, it was a compelling offering, the data portion of the circuit was delivered to the wholesaler, so they could deliver things like straight Ethernet over ATM, instead of PPP over Ethernet, and had different IP routing than At&t, for uverse, it was basically a normal att account billed to the wholesaler. Getting problems fixed could be problematic because of dealing with one company that had to deal with another; otoh they were experts at dealing with att, because they did it so often.

Also: the FCC decided line sharing didn't apply to cable internet pretty early in the lifetime of cable internet. Then when DSL companies complained (through courts) that that wasn't fair, the FCC said we have enough competition between cable, DSL, and power line (yeah) so DSL companies don't need to line share either; only voice needs to be line shared.
Do you know people that think that 35mm is some sort of magical dimension or are you arguing that sensor size doesn't play into photography?
Since when is using two libraries (typescript and babel) considered mashing a massive number of things together?

If you don't want to leverage Gulp to easily automate your build process then don't.

"somehow" - by firing 3 of its main engines for a soft landing, just without a drone ship around because they didn't know it wouldn't destroy the ship.

Legitimately very cool. As someone else mentioned I’d also really like the ability to embed these on another page, and possibly have these run locally offline.

I do have a question: for notebooks linking to outside notebooks: is there anything that prevents breakages? Ie external notebook variable name changes or is completely removed, would parts of my notebook relying on that one then also fail? Is there some kind of public versioning of notebooks so that I can refer to a value at notebook ref,v1?
I don't really think so. Small business owners are often much more influential at the city level than lobbyists paid by out of town landowners. Even if the landowners have significant influence, they're outnumbered by the lessees and the lessees have a lot more to lose.
Cool. I wonder if this will lead to a rise in interest in open-source technology over there.

The difference is that bad cops are a minor percentage, the fact that the rest protect their own is the generalization you are looking for. The other comment proposes the generalization that all cops will shoot you in the face, which is comically wrong on many levels.
you can buy at least 2 nanopi neo2's for every rpi3b - they have gbe and a non-gimped soc, and you can fit in at least 2 for every rpi, maybe even 4

there are also more powerful alternatives of the same footprint and at same or slightly cheaper price point (rock64)
And what's the best for Windows, without getting too spendy?
What you say is completely bogus. Taxis are not expensive in Finland, they are less expensive than in most Western European countries.

If you want to attribute uniqueness to digital assets then cryptography definitely could help.

But beyond that why do you need decentralisation?

There's a nice to have that you can track ownership transfers more accurately but, as the previous poster said, that's probably not high on the TODO list.

And I think that's the current situation in a nutshell. Blockchain, as a monotonically ordered ledger, possibly trustless, is a useful idea. But it's not the wheel.
> And takes 30% of everything you make.

Compared to a website, where you get to keep 100% of zero?

Users will pay for apps (not much, as a rule, but something), but will not pay for web sites. Third-party advertisers might pay, if you're lucky, and if you don't mind treating your users as a commodity, but the users themselves will not.

I can attest from my own interactions that your point number 2 is spot on. My father died of cancer back in 2006, and while I don't attribute his death to this cause directly, miscommunication delayed treatment. Don't expect physicians to call each other, don't expect them to think about you much in their rare off hours. They're human, tired, and busy. Any connection you can make by concentrating on it is one they don't have to make instead.

It's unlikely that cabalamat would attempt making most of those and the others could definitely be done as a web/electron app if desired.
The Investment Checklist
Wishing you both all the best.
As long as it doesn't crash constantly. Openshot, Pitivi, Cinelerra and many of the others I've tried are totally unusable because they crash. All the time. Constantly. (Granted I haven't tried any of these in over a year, so hopefully they've gotten better).

The only tool in Linux that's really decent at editing video isn't even a video editing tool. It's Blender.

For the past few years I've just used Resolve in Windows. I'd be excited to try Shortcut and see if it handled better.

Video editing is a though medium though, even if you're just calling ffmpeg a lot. It's worth watching the Vimeo talk and video encoding and how a lot of cameras and cellphone encoders are so crappy they can change framerates on every frame.
Interestingly, a similar thing has happened in the United States with the Carolina Dog. They are supposedly also referred to as the "American Dingo", though I've never heard anyone actually ever call them that.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carolina_Dog

It's basically an ancient breed of wild/pariah dog ranged in the Southeastern United States that has undergone re-domestication in recent history. Not sure how much they actually have in common with Australian dingoes, but they are a terribly lovable breed.

> A key to the success of MIT IQ will be identifying industry allies who share our passion for tackling big, real-world problems. That work is already underway: we have forged a number of collaborative projects with industry, such as the MIT–IBM Watson AI Lab.

However, the biggest incentive to go into industry is income. Sure, your research and your department can do more with more funding but wouldn't you still make about the same amount as a grad/research scientist/professor?

I've never had any problems with Signal for Android. With Telegram, though, I once woke up to find myself added to what looked like the first 500 groups in their database, alphabetically sorted. My phone was buzzing continuously from the stream of notifications. Had to remove myself from them one by one.
I can see how this might become a problem. Small business owners will be hostile to any city configuration change, because they'll have to adapt to it and that will require some effort from them.

Naturally their influence has to be limited in order to see any kind of motion forward.

I don't want to turn this into another misguided "JS sucks" thread[0], but here's an example from create-react-app, the official point of entry for people learning React:

https://github.com/facebook/create-react-app/blob/master/pac...

The README included on a project generated through CRA is 116KB. A screenshot of that page rendered in GitHub is 60054px tall.

Honestly, I don't know if this could be made simpler or easier. React and its ecosystem deal with complex problems that can't always be reduced to simple explanations. In the case of this README, of course a lot of it is about specific setups that most beginners don't need to care about, but that CRA, being the blessed point of entry, still should support, or it would lock everyone into a Facebook workflow.

I think many developers would be better served by entering frontend development not through React, but through the basics (HTML, CSS, JS) and other ecosystems.

[0]: Unrequested opinion: frontend developers reach for bigCo solutions — whatever Facebook/Google/some billion-dollar startup uses — when smaller, lesser known, "boring" or exploratory solutions could be better, trying to solve problems they don't have.
Also consider the ecosystem for these boards. Do you want your researchers dealing with the non-upstreamed support around Allwinner chips? Additionally consider time to solution, this machine is based on BitScope's Blade: http://bitscope.com/product/blade/.

Competitive diving: During competitions in breath-hold diving, most divers
hyperventilate extensively and determine the duration of their breath-hold by
means other than the hypercapnic ventilatory drive. Some seem to react to
hypoxia via the urge to breathe, while others actively decide to abort the
breath-hold when vision starts to falter, described as 'greyout' (personal
communication with elite divers).

From:

https://www.diversalertnetwork.org/files/UHMS_DAN_2006_Breat... (Chapter 2, Physiological mechanisms involved in the risk of loss of consciousness during breath-hold diving; pg 27).
on the readme page, there is a recorded terminal demoing how to use it.

Yes and no.

Renderman is a very different architecture to the "SGI-like architecture" (the terminology the author uses) that cards at the time were settling into (and desktop GPUs still use).

In Renderman, you subdivide all triangles until the triangles are all smaller than a single pixel, then you collect all triangles that effect each pixel, sort them, decide which triangles will effect the final color and then run the pixel shader for those triangles.
Since the subdivided triangles are smaller than a single pixel, you only need to run the pixel shader once, and you don't have to worry about perspective correct texturing.

It would be near impossible to implement this at real time in hardware.

Modern Graphics APIs took one small aspect of Renderman (pixel shaders) and re-implemented them on top of the existing "SGI-like architecture". They also invented the idea of vertex shaders to program the hardware Transform and Lighting units. (Renderman used distortion/displacement shaders instead. Vertex shaders could only move vertexes. distortion/displacement shaders could distort any point on the triangle in arbitrary ways).

Sidenote: Shaders are more of a programming interface than a hardware feature. GPUs with powerful programmable per-pixel pipelines appeared before pixel shaders, and graphics programmers had to configure them with DirectX 7 and OpenGL 1.3's TextureEnviroment features. Shaders just gave programmers a much more sane way to access those same features
if we are 'considering the ecosystem' then that means these are running a 32bit os, as mentioned in my original comment
Perhaps I'm taking what you say too literally, but you couldn't equate it with murder. It would be mass attempted manslaughter. So it would have to be at that level.

That's not to say we shouldn't treat it as seriously just that it's a different intent.
MP Matt Hancock's social network is a privacy disaster
Especially since my Trillian account is now ONLY for Trillian and a single client who uses XMPP for their chat.

Google Chat is gone, AIM is gone, Facebook Chat is gone. No one uses ICQ anymore, and even if they did, they are probably on my facebook or hangouts anyway. Its disappointing how every chat service went to a closed protocol model.
It doesn't help that StudiVZ is based off of Facebook, so it's not really revolutionary either.
Think Like an Artist – Thoughts on Agile Development by Filipp Keks
Because you want a secondhand (not secondary) market where things can move far far away from the originator plus you can prove it's history which in itself can have value (Bill Gates used to own it). It can live its own life so to speak.

And thats just art, then there is digital art which is an even bigger problem.

It's the unique history + decentralized that creates the value as it becomes more like a physical object.

I don't think it's the situation in a nutshell. It takes time but the art world (especially involving China and Russia) is filled with fakes and fraud.
