And this is why we need to study emergent protocols. Emergence is the bedrock of nature and mechanics. Many seemingly useless nodes can do spectacular things with some very, very simple assumptions. The output space is huge. See, for example, Conway's Game of Life. Small parts and simple rules can lead to incredibly rich output.

This kind of thing is responsible for much, much more than ant behavior.

Are you talking languages, frameworks, domain knowledge, etc...?

To my knowledge the only way to do true HFT is with co-location, and GDAX offers co-location via hosting EC2 instances in a certain region. I can get an offer posted and cancelled in ~150ms (with some fancy race-condition logic across the websocket and API) which is good, but still nowhere near "HFT".

Competing against someone who bought an exchange and is running an HFT bot on the same servers, yeah I would stay far away from anyone doing that.

A net benefit is when we can synthesize drugs to allow us to adapt to externalities, which produce fewer side effects than benefits. Vaccines are a net positive in the presence of Polio.

Internally java/jvm uses only UTF-16 and it is not going to change because of backward compatibility reasons.

Char is a 16bit type, so some unicode 'characters' have high/low surrogate pairs, those pairs are encoded in 32bit int as `codePoint`.
Example of a problem: String#length returns number of chars, not number of codepoints.

String/Character api is a one big record of utf16 madness:

Most of contemporary technologies use UTF8 for string encoding and exchange format.
This back and forth UTF8<>UTF16 conversion in java doesn't come without a computational&memory price.

Still useful in the sense that he teaches how to do profiling right: measure, measure, and measure. Don't just jump to attack the code without profiling, try to reason about the code, try to reason about the algorithms and data structures, and only at the end go for "low level performance tricks" (as in writing everything in assembly).

It's an entertaining read, mostly, but you'll surely don't get much from the 386, 486 and Pentium quirks (and cycle counting) to extract the last drop of performance, other that "back in the old days, Pentium would issue 2 instructions at the same time given a very particular set of conditions". But again, as he does focus on analyzing the problem at large, finding the correct algorithm and data structure, it's still useful.

> Well, there is really no way to solve this other than using a language-specific font or markup to indicate the language of the text. The first solution is probably the more common one, since there are very few international fonts that actually do CJK languages well to begin with.

Indeed, but - more by accident than design - traditional codepages end up making language-specific fonts easy, since you'll naturally use different fonts for different encodings (and if you don't, it's easy to switch to doing so, because you were already carrying around the encoding for each piece of text so you know which texts are Chinese and which are Japanese). I mean, using UTF-8 you could carry around that metadata manually and achieve the same result, but that's a lot less fail-fast; you usually only realise you needed that information after you've got a substantial amount of text of unknown language stored in your system. Whereas if you fail to store which encoding text is in then you (hopefully) notice sooner.

> Signs all over Japan (made by Japanese for Chinese tourists) show the Chinese rendition of Japanese place names such as 涩谷 (Shibuya) and nobody seems to bother.

What is the rationale for sites selecting a language using GeoIP instead of the Accept-Language header? The user is literally telling the site which language they prefer. Plus a user can change their browser or OS language settings more easily than move their IP address. One argument I've heard is that few users know how to change these settings, whereas GeoIP benefits more users than it hurts.

FWIW, in my testing, Chrome and Firefox use their own language settings instead of checking the OS settings. Edge does.

Coincidence, I've written something about it two weeks ago (in Portuguese, unfortunately: https://epxx.co/logbook/entries/sm.html). About Petri Nets as well. It is difficult to understand why so many junior programmers use a dozen boolean state variables instead of a state machine, given that they learn it in CS or similar courses. My guess is they are taught in an overly scientific fashion, so they go to the same dusty corner where so many other CS topics that are never used in practice lie already.

This makes the "How many clicks to Hitler" game much faster.

For those uninitiated, the game was to click the "Random Article" link in the sidebar and count how many links it took to get to Hitler. It is really interesting to see just how big of an event WWII was. Every country article has a section on their involvement or why they were not involved.

After playing with it more, this is pretty fun. I vote that a "degrees from Hitler" score be added to the top of every article. I think it might be an interesting proxy for how esoteric a particular page is.

I was just reading pg's "Cities" essay this morning (http://www.paulgraham.com/cities.html). Much of what he said in 2008 is still relevant today. That said, I think NYC has come around a bit.
No. In my case, that is a recipe for disaster. I have a form of cystic fibrosis. It involves a compromised immune system and predisposition to develop deadly antibiotic resistant infections. People who have CF and want to attend related medical conferences are often asked to show they do not test positive for certain infections that are not a big problem for the general population but can be a serious problem for people with CF.

Furthermore, you are ignoring my point that I did not have a diagnosis until shortly before my 36th birthday. Even without a diagnosis, I was well aware that my health was delicate, though other people viewed me as a hypochondriac and neurotic.

My argument is that people should be able to find a small cheap place they can afford to live in on their own if they strongly prefer living alone. They should not need to justify such a preference. A desire to have your own place and willingness to accept something small and bare bones should not make you a freak that society cannot accommodate. It was a completely normal arrangement in this country for quite a long time. Then we tore down most of our SROs and such accommodations these days are no longer a normal living arrangement for a young person just starting out. They are a program for hardcore junkies who would otherwise be chronically homeless and they have a terrible public image.

But if you watch old movies, or movies set in a previous era, just having a room with a sink and hot plate was completely normal for ordinary people. You see this in movies like A walk in the clouds. It was not Section 8 housing. It was not The Projects. It was a market rate rental commonly available.

There is no reason we can't bring that back.

Ultimately I think that's one the big issues with crypto. Even though most altcoins boast decentralization, their development is only controlled by a few people who have commit rights to the git repository. When someone disagrees with them, it usually ends up in forking a new currency. Perhaps someone with more experience in the crypto space can shed some light on this...is there a way to truly decentralize development as well?
As someone who also made this difficult decision to launch a product with only Chrome support: don’t feel bad, and don’t feel responsible for haters. Supporting other browsers, even those that are standards compliant, is a nefarious class of technical debt: from verifying scrollbar sizing to performance degradations, you add a tremendous amount of overhead to ongoing QA - especially important when you have a small team without dedicated QA resources or processes, and a clientele with an eye towards aesthetic detail. We owe it to our respective missions to focus on what matters.

For my part, I look forward to trying the product!
I'm in a similar boat. I'm unlikely to go for a bigger phone, and, seeing as the traffic lights in my city interfere with Bluetooh, I'm simply not going to go for a phone with no headphone jack.

But all signs indicate that it's just not happening. The thing that pretty well convinced me that the SE will be the last small iPhone is the new control center. Cramming so many things in there that key touch targets are too small to quickly hit with a thumb on an SE-sized screen seemed like a pretty clear, if tacit, statement of intent.
I really like the SE size, so I did a bit of searching to see what rumors are out there. Most seemed to suggest the update will be this fall and I don't really want to wait until then. One analyst claimed that wireless charging would be added to it and that seems plausible.

I'll probably get an iPhone 8 and it will be my first iPhone.

While I appreciate the intent of the piece, I disagree with many of the author's positions, including but not limited to:

>My preference for early stage discussion is towards lower gear channels like Email / Slack as opposed to higher gear channels like In-person / Video Conference. This is for the simple reason that lower gear channels help you achieve clarity of thought more effectively than higher geared ones. There’s less room for an adrenaline fueled frenzy to kick in when you have to write things out, and read it once over before you hit send.

I disagree with this because it's much easier to misinterpret a person's intent in text vs in-person, and it's much easier to react negatively in text vs in-person.

Climate is changing humans or not is one thing, but that current climate change is a consequence of human activity is another which as factual as the first. We even named the mass extinction accompanying the anthropocene mass extinction event to point out that it's man made.[1]

The greenhouse effect is still the greenhouse effect and its meaning has not changed a bit. But the anthropogenic greenhouse effect (additional greenhouse effect caused by human activity) came on top of the natural one and push the system towards a tipping point where the current climatic system loses its balance and evolves into a different system. For example a positive feedback loop in greenhouse effect, called a runaway greenhouse effect, could make the oceans boil away.

It does not take much effort to find out that water vapor is actually taken into account in the discussion as water vapor strengthen other greenhouse gases such as CO2 through forementioned positive feedback[2]. warmer world means more water vapor in the athmosphere whichs means more potent greenhouse gases which means warmer world, etc.

I don't know where your dad got the idea that nobody talks about the growing ice in Antarctica, it's been discussed and studied and we know that ice melting in the arctic far exceeds the ice growing in the antarctic so global sea ice is rapidly diminishing[3][4]

Volcanic activity release of CO2 is about 1% that of human activity[5] so it's a non starter, but then interesting detail is that this is also a positive feedback loop as climate change is likely to increase volcanic activity[6].

> a handful of people binge drink to come down

Biologist here, and yep, that was the only real discernible downside to me. Especially when I was new to the drug (Adderall) and didn't know how to time the doses and therefore took them too late in the day, I would get a powerful urge to drink about 3-5 hours after the last dose to come down. However, if you dose early enough in the day you will come down naturally.

Besides the desire to "drink to come down", the other problem is that Adderall will make you feel clearer and more energetic for longer while drinking, making it easier to miss the warning signs that you are approaching (or have passed) the "too much" threshold.

I am not aware of stimulant use being very common among the people I work with, and you are absolutely right that it is easy to tell the symptoms.

Relevant article:
https://www.nature.com/news/2008/080409/full/452674a.html

If ~20% of biologists (broadly speaking, and higher in younger cohorts) "have used" a drug to enhance performance, then the number regularly using must be lower, unless there is selection bias in this informal poll, and if there was I would suspect the bias would be towards an overestimate of use, as people interested in the question seem more likely to respond.

Overall, then, I would guess use in these fields is "semi-rare" (maybe 5-10% of the population are regular users).

This certainly may be part of it.

However, there are long-term changes in the brain that occur with chronic stimulant use/abuse. I'm looking for the correct number, but I believe it takes about 24 months for the brain to revert to its normal state after stimulant cessation.
This is my favorite comment of the thread. I approach my work with a similar mindset. Deliver more value by simplifying and staying relaxed.
I agree. Separating analysis from data gathering is generally a bad idea (especially if anyone with Matlab is doing the "analysis"). Having signed hypothesis and methods before data collection would be good. In that case different labs could do the acquisition (as long as methods for acquisition and analysis are established before hand). Even better to make the acquisition part double blind. There is a strong infrastructure to do this with medicine, but a lot of scientific study require technical expertise that is limited. In medicine there are hundreds (thousands?) of labs or more that can do a double blind study. In a narrow scientific field there may be only a few experts in the world.

It is a difficult problem, but I do think there are better ways to organize scientific study.
