Yes. The thing is, this would be super easy for the ISPs as they already have to maintain reverse DNS for dynamic IPv4 most of the time, so modifying it to also allow delegating to an authenticated DNS secret should be trivial. Eslecially now that ISPs are so fond of giving you big routers.
I used command latency to do multiplayer for an RTS\Tower Defense on mobile (https://youtu.be/tRAdI0x7L7c?t=300 - think Battle Cats but in 3D). All units were AI controlled, and placing a unit meant it had to go through a spawn animation. It meant the game worked with ping times in the range of seconds. Add in some positional interpolation and events for when each unit changed targets and it worked great.
It's still easy to tell banks from tech companies. Banks probably won't offer you 2FA or allow you to use secure passwords and will cheerfully bring down their website for maintenance for twelve hours at a stretch. They'll also charge you mysterious transaction fees.
As an egalitarianist who despises neoliberalism the race for the white house had a nationalist, egalitarianist and a neoliberal vying for power. There's a good blog post about it here:

https://benjaminstudebaker.com/2016/02/05/why-bernie-vs-hill...

My thinking was I'd rather have Trump in the whitehouse than clinton, because he'd be a lame duck president even with an all GOP congress -- he's totally crazy and narcissistic so will get nothing done, he'll polarize the whole country and hopefully bring out blue in 2018, and by 2020 we might get an anti-neoliberal candidate (from the left) again running for office.

So far I'm pretty right in that he's not really accomplished anything except make himself and the country look absolutely retarded. Lots of red seats have already gone blue in parts of the country where that's rare.

Clinton would've been more of the same, more supporting the corporate agenda over the people, and we wouldn't get the change we need. By throwing Trump in the mix we make America worse for a bit, but in the end it could cause us to really get the change we need. That's why I wrote in Bernie and did not vote for Clinton.
Why do men and women play separately? My guess is because men would almost always win against women. But in marathons Nigerians have a statistical advantage, should marathons be separated into Nigerians and not Nigerians? In most winter sports athletes from colder climates do better, should winter sports be separated based on the climate of the athletes's home country? People from Russia do better at chess... I assume most people would say that the people in my examples shouldn't be separated. So why should men and women be separated?
Why is it always the "notifying" part that breaks with shitty software like this, and not the "money being taken forcefully" part, which always seems to work flawlessly? Doesn't that seem a little suspicious?

If they were uniformly bad at writing software, the critical money handling part should fail at roughly the same rate. If they can get that part to work reliably, failure of other parts of the system seem particularly inexcusable.

McCarthyist talking points on body counts? 45,000 Americans die annually from preventable illness due to lack of access to healthcare. ~200,000 Americans die annually from poverty-related causes. Meanwhile the US military and CIA are responsible for ~30 million deaths worldwide since WWII. Assuming the McCarthyite propaganda around Holodomor is accurate, it pales in comparison.
Is this a reference to something I'm not familiar with?
Two phase power is very, very rare. You are probably thinking of split phase power which is a form of single phase power. It is ubiquitous in American residential power. It takes the form of two hots at 240VAC with a neutral between them, allowing you to get 120VAC from the neutral and either hot.
One issue with cyclists is that that extra 2-4 oz's will destroy their dreams of being on the tour. If you could make clothes out of aero gel they'd buy it, heck they'd buy the emperors new clothes if they could pull it off in public. Gotta be faster.
No, I did not already have an existing account.
If we are talking about whether a specific existing technology will make this all work, then I agree, I have no hard data to back that up.

But the article is talking about the idea of a cryptocurrency which is mined in the browser as a potential area of exploration for a way to allow a publisher to directly monetize their users electrical resources in return for products or services.

Most of these comments are looking only through the lens of what exists today and assuming that the only implementation is a direct you-mine-coin-you-pay-with-your-coin-who's-value-to-USD-fluctuates. There is no reason a system would need to do that.

It would be just as feasible for a publisher to grant access to the service based on the time the miner is running above some speed threshold not its total cumulative speed, even if the cumulative speed is what is generating value for the publisher. The threshold becomes the fixed price, and fixed prices across customers who provide variable levels of value to a company are common.
As someone interested in photography and who bought a 10-inch Dobsonian telescope that barely gets used, I'll have to echo your sentiment with some modifications.

I say this as someone who has only dabbled, but astrophotography, even at the bottom end of things, takes quite a bit of work to get a mediocre image. You can get decent images from a cheap webcam attached to a big scope if you capture lots of images (or video in this case) and use focus stacking and noise reduction techniques using programs such as Registax.

It's one of those hobbies that promises improvements along the way the more money you spend, but it also rewards knowledge.
Oh shit, do you mean that just maybe, maybe, that a more nuanced view of politics is more likely to be correct?

Conservatives aren't a monolith, they come in many flavors. And comeon, this is great news! Just be happy and hope that we can persuade Sessions to rethink some things.
"I don't think it addresses one of the most important aspect of assembly, though, which is it's strict, functional/feature inferiority to modern languages."

I think that's addressed in the, "No one really uses it anymore" part.

"Shakespearean English is just about as functional of a language as modern English (ignoring the vocabulary for things that didn't exist back then), which can't be said about assembly."

I would disagree. Arguably, the main function, if not the only function of English, or any other human language, is to express ideas. Shakespearean English being not commonly used, and many of the colloquialisms and terms used not being in use anymore would make that function more difficult. As an example, I'd use the "Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo?" line. To most people, that would be Juliet asking where Romeo was, but it's not. It's her asking why Romeo had to be who he was, which was a Montague, the rival/enemy of her family.
I think you are too quick to ascribe “money” as the only motivation to Jeff Sessions. That guy has been ranting about how marijuana will turn children into demons for the last 30-40 years. He just has a blinding hate for “the kind of people” who smoke marijuana - I do not think that it’s as complicated for him as extracting profit from private prisons.
IIRC the argument was that JS bloat is okay "because we can cache common content through CDNs" ... or that's how it felt at the time :)

It sort of/kind of started with jQuery, and in those days including jQuery was considered somewhat bloaty. I think it was about 18kB minified back then? Today their site says it's 30kB.

Either way that's miniscule compared to having a few pictures on your webpage. Having much more JS than that, honestly seems like true bloat to me, which I don't think CDNs should facilitate anyway (so much untrusted unknown unchecked code doing very, very filthy things).

My point is, it wasn't a very good argument back then either, but it became normal because people did it for other reasons, too.

The main reason people did it, was that it was just so much easier. Just copypaste those 1.5 lines of code in your <HEAD> section to include the latest version of jQuery from Google's CDN, instead of downloading it and putting it somewhere in your source tree and now you've got to keep track that different parts of your codebase written months apart don't accidentally use slightly different versions (because it's ugly, not because it mattered a lot otherwise), etc.

Such convenience!

And if someone asked if it was really a good idea to blindly load 3rd party code and run it in the context of your own domain? Even I told people this sometimes: Well if you can't trust Google serving you secure code, then the web is basically fucked anyway, and we got much bigger problems. Which seemed like a reasonable threat model / security trade off at the time.

And now we're here.

About a week ago Google got caught hosting hostile ads that included cryptocoin miners inefficiently wasting users' electricity for a few bucks (profit insignificant compared to the cost of energy wasted). And apparently Google's offering to blindly host 3rd party JS to all users on the entire Internet everywhere (except the adblockerati), via their fucking ad network, has been expected behaviour for over a year at least and nobody gave a peep when that malfeature appeared.

I still don't know the exact date when or if there even was an announcement when they allowed advertisers "sure do whatever you like to their browsers, run some code, compute stuff, track them in all the ways we haven't dared to deploy publicly, or yet thought of, have at it, you need this, you do you".

So yeah, the web is fucked, we got bigger problems and hell no you can't trust Google any more.

But what conservative viewpoints do you think are most under stress? The viewpoint on the proper separation between men and women, a viewpoint which still grates women even in liberal churches? Even in liberal churches, female leadership may hear aloud and respond to verbiage like "But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence."

The proper separation between men and women is a major American conservative need. Can we say this out loud?

Also, when we say liberal views, do we mean secular views? Religiously agnostic views? Views which are based upon religiously agnostic shared facts? Which of these views experience the most tension with conservative views?

Note that I bring specifically Christianity into this, because it's hard to imagine (perhaps even an abstraction terribly departed from reality) what American conservatism means without Christianity. If Christians voted one way or another, the very meaning of American conservatism would change overnight.

Looks nice at first glance.

I had a bit of confusion with the Spanish course. I read through the basic categories, and decided to say "Claim Known" for one of them. It then asked me to "Choose a way to learn." This was odd, because I was just saying I knew the words, not in a particular direction (confusion #1).

I chose that I knew them English => Spanish. I then went up to the top to set "English => Spanish" for the whole course. This jumped me into the course, which I did not expect (confusion #2).

I hit "back," went back to the landing page, searched for the course page, and went to the course in order to try and learn a particular set. I scrolled down to one I didn't know, and clicked on "English => Spanish" to start the set. Unfortunately, the "Claim Known" button was already active, which I hadn't realized (surprising, since I felt like I re-entered the course from scratch). So clicking on "English => Spanish" sent those words off as "known" (confusion #3).

Now I have a list of words that I don't know marked as "known," and I don't know exactly what this means (confusion #4) and how to find these words to tell the system I don't actually know them (confusion #5), and I'm not allowed to learn those words even when I click "Learn Now" because it tells me I know them already (confusion #6).
I miss Flickr. I had an idea to do a regular scrape of Flickr using their geo API endpoint, based on where I had been on a particular day - to see if I ended up in any background shots.

This is the highest rated comment, yet it is not a direct response to the article but rather about something else that it links to.
I've seen non director (pres) level offer packages up to $300k including guaranteed bonus minimum.
I read "obsessed" and "surprisingly" (for something which surprises me exactly zero) and "intimidating" and I keep reading, even though literally the first sentence has revealed a pretty strong bias. Then I read that "there should be gender equity" is "an extreme agenda," and I finally roll my eyes.

I did keep reading, and I find that I do agree somewhat with their conclusion, but I wonder if they're aware of how ridiculous their framing is.

Of the many points I found objectionable, I'll focus on only one, the most egregious silliness:

It is neither "surprising" nor "curious" that "there is no concern about the under-representation of women in lower-level technical jobs, such as car mechanics or plumbing." Two paragraphs later they go on to spell out why it should be completely unsurprising: "the different numbers of men and women in these fields contribute, in part, to the sex difference in earnings."

If there's a problem with both A and B, and B generally pays 10x what A pays, I'm going to focus on the problem with B.

Duh.
This paper is about PTSD occurring from war. Unless you can provide sources indicating that PTSD and other psychological perturbations resulting from childhood trauma are widespread in ancient societies, your evidence is irrelevant to the discussion.

Also your argument that human biology and psychology override social norms is unfounded. That is context-dependent, and cultural norms are the case specifically to influence biology and psychology! For example, what we eat and how we eat is directly related to cultural norms, and what we eat directly influences our biology. Over the course of time, our bodies compensate and adapt to our eating patterns as a society, influencing both prevalence and development of disease, as well as how we respond psychologically to cultural changes in diet. The dynamic between culture, psychology, and biology is extremely complex, and it cannot be definitively stated that the body wins over the mind, in any case.

edit: a more specific example of the kind of dynamic I'm referring to would be restrictive eating disorders. Eating is both a psychological and biological response. We eat because we nourish our bodies, our bodies let us know when we need to eat by sending signals to our brain, which we interpret as a kind of discomfort or pain. The pain, psychologically, distresses us even apart from the physical sensation. However, due to cultural developments in the way we view bodies, many people completely override their biological pain response in order to achieve what they perceive to be a cultural norm. You may say this proves your deducted result, but I would argue that in many ways the cultural norm can be perceived to encourage eating disorders. Yet, somehow, those with restrictive eating disorders are still considered perturbed. The relationship is complex. Up until very recently it has been completely normal for models and entertainers to employ very restrictive and unhealthy regimens for their bodies. It is the culture in that aspect of society to do so. In this way, psychology and biology override social norms, but simultaneously social norms are overriding biology and psychology. How would you classify this case based upon your current argument?

This reflects my experience of growing 1-2 herbs at home. It requires little space and you usually only use a tiny amount. Most of all, it's tastier and cheaper over time than the dried stuff.

It's an explanation but not a very simple one. It requires the immigrant to have chosen a career while in their country that would offer them more prospects once they emigrated. But then, why immigate instead of choosing a career that would be profitable and respectable in their country in the first place?

I think a simpler explanation is that people choose a career in their countries for whatever reason (that I don't know and can't speculate about) then when demand for their skills rises, they may find that emigrating is a better choice than staying at home- for instance, because salaries are better abroad.

That would be a simpler explanation for why more women in IT professions are immigrants to the UK (and possibly the US, though I'm not sure): they got the skills, there's job offers, they go abroad and take the offers.
Very, very, very cool.
You may just get me into some serious sewing.
My theory has always been that the people in senior positions at these companies tend to be older and have come up through the ranks before IT was quite as integral to their operations.

So they don't understand technology and therefore tend to not take it as seriously as they should.

That said, that argument starts to hold less water these days. I had my first job in a web-focused bank 18 years ago now!

One of the consequences I've seen (and I'm guessing its even more prevalent these days with easy access to cloud computing resources) is that bad IT in banks leads to the rise of Shadow IT where departments take it on themselves to work around the main corporate IT function.
Figures. President Trump of course mentions 'reporting suspected potential shooters to the relevant authorities', and the first thing that came to mind was, 'they probably were reported, and nobody listened'. Because as others noted, the FBI probably gets tonnes of these and one itsy comment probably isn't enough to start a probe.

And the parts that everyone is on, became standardized in the browser: document.querySelector, CSS animations, async stuff, etc.
On the other hand, it would be great for consumers and those wanting to offer software in the banking ecosystem if there were more standardization in the banking industry. I'd be surprised if anything a bank does is so unique that it requires all their software to be bespoke. Perhaps we could get better security and usability if there were some large providers that offered key software to almost everyone in the industry.
I think this completely changes what you have though, in a way that's no longer a primitive?

You then have something like an async generator, which is like a fusion of asynchrony and sequence?

Except generators are pull not push, so instead you have a promise that accepts a function that operates on a sequence?

I don't know if this pattern is common somewhere, someone who does please explain!
I program on Linux here's why.

1. Every library known to man exist for Linux and is very easy to install, build from source, hack on, and customize, especially if you know what you are doing. This is comparably easy enough on Mac since its Unix based but Windows is its own beast when it comes to building from source and getting custom libraries working, etc.

2. You have complete control of your operating system and programming environment.

3. I don't program for iOS or .NET, so I don't need anything offered by other operating systems for Development purposes.

4. The languages I do program in have great ecosystems and development environments on Linux. These are : Android, Ruby, Java, JavaScript, Python, R and the occasional C/C++.

5. I don't write desktop software and virtually all software I create is deployed on Linux systems, so I write my code in a similar environment to the one its going to get run in (exact environment using docker, vms, etc if necessary).

6. Finally, I'm philosophically much more aligned with the democratic and decentralized spirit of Linux and Open Source than I am with closed source and centralization espoused by Msft and Apple. Admittedly, if their products were significantly better for my purposes as a programmer - I'd use them, since I'm not a Richard Stallman, but this is still one of the reasons I continue to use Linux. I think its a positive thing for the world.

Some tips for textbooks I wish I knew when I started college:

1. Wait until classes start to buy textbooks. You want to have a chance to talk to your actual professor and hear what they say about the textbook and/or look at the syllabus to determine what, if any, readings are actually required from the textbook. In many cases, textbooks are chosen at a departmental level, so some professors may use them sparingly or not at all.

2. If you determine that the textbook is probably needed for you to finish the course, and there is an older edition available less than 5 years old, then buy the older edition. It will be available online on eBay, Amazon, etc. for a much cheaper price than the most current edition. In most cases, the reading content will be very similar, if not identical. Problems sets might change, but if you are assigned them, you can ask another student to take a look at their textbook, or borrow one from the school library. I started doing this my last couple of years at college, and never had any issues.

3. If you do buy a textbook, read it in its entirety. Remember that you are taking classes to learn, not to blindly follow a course syllabus. So read your textbook - all of it - even the parts that aren't assigned.

I can think of no better way to demonstrate that you are right than to succeed at building your own business. OTOH if the business fails IMO you ought consider that you need someone objective to review your perspective on and approach to building a career.

Perhaps start by having a friend with a steady gig look at you resume? Perhaps forward it to a recruiter? Or if by the time you read this you are filthy rich, congratulations!
