Where can read about the "Mozilla’s screenshot addon" you mentioned?
You could see one of the boosters firing from the other booster. They were not the same.
I'd assume if they are landing it, it is reusable. It'd be sort of wasteful to pack fuel for landing, if we were just going to dump the module.
The content will stay online. We don't know yet if it's on the codeship.com or the cloudbees.com domain. Probably primarily an SEO question.

We will also continue to blog and likely do more of that because we will now also start covering a lot of Jenkins topics.

If you have any concerns, please email, tweet, etc. me.
Love that SpaceX’s own team shoots, announces, and switches the live production in-house rather than hiring a production company.

Also love seeing machinists side by side cheering with software engineers, standing by a mission control which is placed feet from where engines are assembled on the shop floor.

Open company culture well-executed.

Congratulations to all there!
Following the same logic XPrize wouldn't exist.
mini roadster. it was an easter egg.
Lettuce be honest. The end of slavery in the South was immediately replaced by slavery-like exploitation of second-class workers without enforceable rights. When a massive nationwide movement for equal civil rights finally made that non-viable a hundred years later, the farmers just did a global search-and-replace in their business plans from "black" to "foreign" and continued as usual.

Having zero abusable second-class workers would be more destructive. 150 years of dragging ass on modernizing their farming operations will come back and bite them all at once. But they probably won't learn their lesson and just use robots. They will beg and squeal for prisoner labor first. And then the cops will be ginning up bogus traffic offenses right before harvest time, so the people who can't pay the fines will have to pick vegetables instead.
I could've done without the constant clapping and screaming on the webcast. Kinda took away from the experience for me.
Yup that was amazing. Slightly related, I'm already nervous for the James Webb Telescope launch. Maybe Spacex should launch it :)
Oh, perhaps I have the name wrong. I meant the part connected to the payload with the Merlin engine designed for vacuum, above the three main rockets (the center of which must be the core).
Yea, unreal. One of those rare moments when you're watching history unfold and completely aware of it.
Why has Apple still not added the ability to view webms on iOS?

Acknowledging that you know you caused the problem has important social function: it provides sympathy to others who may be annoyed at you ("they are annoyed at themselves too, so I shouldn't be so hard on them") and signals that you are aware of your actions so are less likely to screw up in future.

But yes, you should clean up your messes.

Serious question: Why do so many people think building desktop application GUIs with web-technologies is a good idea?

I'm currently trying to formulate some thoughts on this;
While I understand that HTML/CSS generally seems more flexible and may be more easily accessible to more/newer devs, it carries huge, negative implications in the forms of HCI (not having consistent interface elements on the user platform), performance and energy usage (particularly Electron), OS-integration, and accessibility features.

Can someone please give me some arguments as to why this not only seems like a good idea, but also why it's the best tool for the job?
Would not be at all surprising, although plain old narcissism could be behind it as well.
If you learned Javascript and not jQuery then your experience is just as relevant today, with the main difference being that Javascript has had a lot of improvements since then (e.g. myArray.includes vs myArray.indexOf(x) != -1).

Even jQuery is still helpful if you think of how it's accessing the DOM rather than just a set of magic functions to make things happen.

If you know Javascript you can learn Angular or React or Vue fairly quickly.
I don't find that surprising. The communication link back is presumably by satellite since it is in the middle of the ocean, and probably a directional antenna because of the high bandwidth. You have any good suggestions for having a reliable connection via directional antenna on a flimsy barge that a rocket is landing on in this middle of the choppy north Atlantic?
Part 2: Networking released – Your own blockchain in less than 200 lines of Go
In addition to what texodus has said below, Crossfilter only implements a small subset of what perspective provides. For example, no streaming (although there is a related project from the Heer lab that supports incremental updates - https://github.com/jheer/datavore), only a single level of grouping, only in 1 dimension, and you can only support 16 dimension fields at once (without increasing a constant in the codebase).
What nearby ships?
Just curious. They did not put solar panels? Too bad... :D
It’s actually the exact plot of the shield (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Shield) which is based on a true story. So, not surprising.
They are the same video streams:

Wasn't intentional, but oops.
That's not really parallel to what the article says.
Right, sorry about that, so strike the 'undercover' bit, too late to edit.

I'll bet it blew up on the droneship. It was weird they didn't have an immediate confirmation; I thought they have a boat or heli within visual range for the photo.
How do the terms in that paper map to the stackful/stackless distinction being discussed above? For example neither term appears in the paper at all, except for one mention of "Stackless Python" as a name.
> Apple neither forces OS updates, nor forces app updates

Apple does not, but vendors of networked apps often do in practice (as they don't want to maintain backcompat APIs on the server side). So, you may be perfectly happy with iOS7 on your iPad2, but one day your Skype just stops working, and it demands an update to its newest version - which in turn requires a modern iOS, installing which will effectively brick your tablet. This way, little by little, your tablet's functionality is taken away from you.
Wow, beautiful and moving to see people building wonderful things. Have been focused on politics for a while and it's really a breath of fresh air. Made my day!
Correct. It's a small Golang server that keeps the connection alive with chunked transfer encoding. From the browser's perspective it's like a really slowly loading page.

The connection count is updated by sending some inline CSS ::before content changes.
There was a mistake as in the feed they claimed they were separate, but in fact it was a duplicate of the same stream:

Acknowledgement of your shortcomings is not the same as an apology.

In my experience apologies are not making things better, but saying yeah that’s my fault and moving forward does.
I think it's worth noting that NASA wasn't the one to accomplish this, it was a private company. It makes me hopeful that there might be a real possibility of huge infrastructure development by private companies, because it seems like the government is unable to organize itself to accomplish huge infra projects like in the past.
There’s numerous articles about the food being left to rot, for example from a couple of days ago:

According to SpaceX, the orbit could potentially last for a billion years if the timings work out.
What's the difference in how SpaceX is run vs Musk's other companies? It seems to succeed doing the hardest things whereas the others have struggled to meet their goals.

Would Musk focusing only on it make any difference?

Apologies make sense when your predictions are imperfect and there is uncertainty around your hidden brain state. So, often. An apology lets the recipient know the fault didn't lie with your objective function, but with your predictions. It also signals to the recipient that you care about them.

Examples:

-You make a joke that offends someone when your goal was to make them happy not offended

-You make a mistake at work that you thought would save everyone time but now causes someone else extra work

-You accidentally knock someone down while playing sports

In all of these examples you had a friendly objective function that because of imperfect prediction resulted in an unfriendly outcome. An apology tells your victim that the pain you caused them was accidental, not purposeful, and reassures them that you care about them and will exert effort to not hurt them in the future. These are things worth saying because otherwise the apology recipient may not know.

P.S. I am sorry you are being downvoted. You laid out your thinking and asked for examples that could change your mind. I find that pattern commendable.
I'm not seeing that. Do you have a link / pic?

I'd like to second that, Demaine is an awesome teacher.
I feel the same! Suddenly I think I can grasp a bit of how it must’ve felt to watch the Apollo missions back in the day
It's reference to the HHGTTG. Tesla has Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy installed.
That's the 2nd stage. It's still attached to the payload I believe, so that they can test mid-course corrections to the transfer orbit.
That is a cool feature! It's a bit annoying to have separate versions for C and C++.
It will relight its engine again in about five and a half hours to depart Earth orbit for interplanetary space.
I have thought about this. I have looked at several multi-wafer services for my own projects. Mainly some interesting analog designs mixed with digital.

For instance http://cmp.imag.fr/ has a 350nm process for only 650 euros per sq mm. However, that does exclude packaging costs which is quite steep for such a low number of devices.
Thanks for the demonstration. I didn't know this chunked encoding technique before.
Translation offset.
There aren't any nearby ships, for obvious safety reasons. Plus, any nearby ships would have the exact same issue - where exactly would you "feed" to, when any ship that far out is going to be using a commercial satellite data feed (ie, very slow and unreliable)?
No. Watch SpaceX's twitter feed. It might be a while though.
> Shaking down kids while cruising around in a black and white is one thing. Being equipped with military gear including armored cars opens up a whole new level of control issues.

I'm not sure which one of those two does more damage to society in the longer term. The second obviously has problems but the first chips away at the foundations and I suspect that long term that one will have far more potential to do damage.
Did anybody else catch this line from President Trump's State of the Union speech?

The fourth and final pillar protects the nuclear family by
ending chain migration

That literally says that 1) extended families threaten nuclear families, and 2) we should prefer as a matter of public policy the dissolution of extended families in favor of nuclear families.

It's obviously a very awkward attempt to reframe the debate and defend against accusations of racism. Though, it does neither and taken at face value is anathema to the expressed values of conservative rural Americans, if not all Americans.

OTOH, Americans, rural or not, obviously do prefer nuclear families over extended families. Americans want to live near family, but never with family. So there's something peculiarly honest about Trump's logic.
Yeah, that's sort of how I feel as well. It seems odd that they didn't immediately know or say, then they cut it off immediately.
My best strategy for this is to push for more acceptance of pass/fail courses. The main downside is that I find myself having to take better notes for future recommendation letters.
What did the author learned?
Page never end to load.
This definitely feels incredibly significant. The Soviet Union tried and failed 4 or 5 times to launch a rocket with this many engines, but now we're able to nail it on the first try aaaand land the boosters.
No need for me to quibble with your sentiment. The question is: if they don't solve a problem, why buy one? Prius offered people clean hands, and not much more. When gas is cheap the price of fuel isn't a big motivator, and Detroit is happy to churn out SUVs. So unless the state changes current market conditions I see no reason why people would choose to buy these electric cars.
If that's the case, then the desktop app buys you absolutely nothing over just using the webapp. In fact, now you have to have multiple instances of your browser running, instead of just one.
Why tolerate illegal immigration and make legal immigration so hard? Do you see how out of whack the incentives are? I did a BS and MS from good schools here... Pay tens of thousands in taxes every year due to my high income. But I am in constant worry as I am on a h1b and have a pending green card. In the mean time, I am seeing illegal aliens, hundreds of thousands of them, get EAD cards! I don't even have an EAD. I am enslaved to my company (good thing I like my job!). With EAD you don't even have that issue.

Of course I don't have an issue with latin people. I got an issue with illegals being given preference over legals. There are many Indian illegal immigrats too. They overstay visa. I met a cab driver from India who described in detail how he illegally migrated via the Mexico border. Now he has an EAD card somehow. It's so bizzare.

Do what Canada does. Use point system. And please remove the racist "national origin" quota for immigration. See the racially allocated dates here: https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/legal/visa-law0/v.... They are currently "processing" Indians who applied in 2008!! China is 2013. But Mexicans and everyone else, it's "current" (meaning no waiting).

It selectively harm's Indians and Chinese, the most educated immigrants to this country. Literally, there is a special column for Indian, Chinese and Mexicans in the green card line. Make it country agonistic and use points that select for highly educated, English speaking immigrants. Then you can have such great quality of immigrants as Canada.

I love this country but it hurts when my friends (all liberal Democrats ) continuously care more about illegals than their friend who has been in this country for 15 years and still in the queue for the greencard ...
Saw this on their careers page right after the landing. Looks like it worked!

I'm not sure about physicality being the problem here, the ISO 216 standard, based on metric units (square meter), is used for dividing and multiplying the areas of physical things (paper) and seems to be doing rather well, each size being half of the previous one, I would say that's quite intuitive.

Granted, if we look at the tiny details, the exact measurements of each size are not what one would call intuitive, round numbers, but it's much easier and reliable to use than the US, non-decimal based standard.

I think it's mostly an economic problem, for the majority of people it's too much trouble for very little real gain. For engineering, on the other hand, it's almost mandatory.
Where i live it was 21:45 and i couldn't help but told my son that was on bed to come and see it, cause IMHO it's a significant moment for space exploration. He went to bed later than usual but has a nice story to tell tomorrow at school.
I've felt better when people have apologized to me, and I've felt better when I apologize to others. When someone has been wronged, it's better to clear the air, acknowledge what happened and move on with a repaired or even improved relationship. The alternative is... what? Just pretending it didn't happen? Has a tendency to just make bad feelings and false assumptions fester with a lot of people.

>> you’re sorry, and you did it? that makes no sense

You did it, and it was the result of a miscommunication, or your feelings have changed, or you didn't realize what the consequences would be. What you're saying is that you recognize what happened, you empathize, and you're willing to change some things to do better. If the other person doesn't hear this, it can take a long time for them to notice that you're doing better, harming the relationship.

edit: don't think of it as feigning regret, think of it as a chance to properly communicate something that has been miscommunicated.
The marketing stunt is gonna be at the top for while.
Keep the camera and antennas on the boat instead of the platform with a zoom lens?
Wow, this is amazing!

"In the next release of Windows 10, we intend to begin listing PWAs in the Microsoft Store... The Microsoft Store, powered by the Bing crawler, will automatically index selected quality Progressive Web Apps"

First, Microsoft is encouraging devs to build with web technologies instead of Windows APIs. This is exactly the future their anticompetitive actions in the 90s were trying to prevent.

Now, they're now treating the desktop like a browser and their Store like a search engine. They've lost the API wars [1] so thoroughly that they're now dedicated to working for the other side.

I took a broken hard drive to the electronics recycling bin in the basement last month. It's not often emptied, as it takes a long time to get even half-full.

Inside was a Macbook Air, a 2012 iPad, an iPod Touch, two 8GB iPods and an iPod Shuffle.

All except the Macbook are in full working order, but the iPad and iPod Touch were frustratingly slow to use.

It breaks when you press `esc`. Either that, or the DOM just keeps growing and hogging memory until the tab eventually becomes unresponsive or crashes
In Linux world, the problem is mitigated by availability of specialty distributions and desktop environments. Even older but open software can usually be salvaged with a few patches too.

And once you have the hardware new enough to run hardware virtualization well, there are truly no limits other than raw RAM and CPU.
Problem is partly that crime is pretty bad in Baltimore and tax base doesn’t help combat it. Officers are constantly having to bend the rules to make any impact. Slippery slope into bad behavior. Also, few well trained and talented police officers want to work in such an environment due to personal risk and stress. The few that do want to be rewarded for the hell they go through.

There is another side to this story, though I agree the behavior is mostly inexcusable.
It sounds like it was lost: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-B_tWbjFIGI&feature=youtu.be...

Although there hasn't been an official statement by SpaceX yet, and whoever said "we lost the center core" could have just been referring to the video feed from the drone ship.
Tow a cable from the barge to a nearby ship, buoy, or platform on which the antenna sits, that's out of range of the vibrations and faces a different direction?
It appeals to people who regard desktop resources (memory, CPU cycles, etc.) as functionally unlimited. Thus, there's no reason to worry about low-level efficiency, such as with C or C++. So why not use all the technologies you already know and use everywhere else, like JavaScript?

I don't know if I agree that it's the best tool for the job, but I can see the appeal to someone whose world is JS and Python only. Especially if memory management is a foreign and scary world to them - and having done it, it certainly is scary!

I think you're right.
A few months ago, I couldn't watch TV on my TV because the TV-watching app kept crashing. It didn't even occur to me that this problem was possible in theory. I had to factory reset it.
Loved it. Absolutely amazing.

I posted more screen shots of launch: https://imgur.com/a/gh410
I thought it was interesting that they specifically said the two panels represent the two boosters. I don't think they ever directly claimed each video was from a different booster.
Yeah.. sorry you were inconvenienced by the cheers of the people who built it...
They could perfect it, by having say an underwater wired data feed going to an ancillary ship which transmits it, which then is out of the thrust cone of the rocket. But it's probably just not worth it to get the footage 5 minutes early.
"There's a starman waiting in the sky
He's told us not to blow it
Cause he knows it's all worthwhile"
Ah you're right. If you go back a few seconds you can see its using different camera angles. I'm guessing they just accidentally switched both to the same booster for the landing shot.
That was amazing. But... what happened to the core?
> You realize they share most of the same code, and are essentially feature identical?

Yes. So why would I run essentially a second web browser instance to run the same code in a different place?

Beyond that, I had with weird screen refresh issues with the desktop app, where scrolling or even just typing in the text box would cause parts of the main HTML view to just disappear to the point where it'd be unusable. Often images wouldn't load, or would load, but then have the same disappearing issue. Restarting or refreshing the UI wouldn't help. I'd have to restart the app every couple days anyway due to ballooning memory usage. Hell, even the font rendering was weird and didn't match what I'd see by opening a regular Chrome window. I reported the issues to Slack, but never heard back, and after waiting through several releases for a fix, over a period of months, I gave up.

> ... let them use a toolkit that let them easily handle cross platform issues with UI in a sane and repeatable manner.

That's not what I want. I want apps that fit in with my desktop, not apps that look the same across OSes, ignoring platform idioms and style/placement standards.
No, but I'd guess that the guys that land rockets like it's nothing would. I'm on the bungee-cord-and-duct-tape level of engineering.
Apologizing helps indicate the person will make an effort to avoid their mistake in the future. Focusing on someone in the present without acknowledging they are a person with intentions and feelings reeks of lacking empathy.
There's something awesome (in the literal sense) and unsettling about watching something and being able to say "I am witnessing history".
