The database creation script[1] has a lot of Unix junk in it, but reading through the comments and echo statements should give you an idea of what it does. The end result is a SQLite database with a size of about 9 GB which has four tables, the schema of which are described in the README[2]. The big things that are precomputed are redirects are "auto-followed" to reduce the total graph size and all incoming and outgoing links are stored in a |-separated string for each page (in the `links` table).

Every time a query is made, a bi-directional breadth-first search[3] is run which uses the |-separated incoming and outgoing links and runs a fairly standard BFS algorithm. A lot of the hard work was precomputed, which minimizes the number of required database queries and makes each search respond fairly quickly.

I'm not talking about forcing people into a commune, I'm talking about approaching capitalisms flaws using the tools we have available instead of pretending the free market is a perfect system. That's a crazy false dichotomy and is exactly the kind of stigma I am talking about.
Redbulls & other energy drinks have B vitamins and such that synergies with the caffeine to make the energy effect stronger. So even though your drinking 70mg of caffeine in a redbull, it feels a lot stronger.

Drinks such as coffee have a ton of caffeine in comparison. A cup of coffee has around ~200mg of caffeine, while yerba mate drinks have around ~70mg: http://guayaki.com/caffeine_meter.html

So drinking yerba mate is a lot like drinking tea as far as the caffeine experience goes.
Tact.
I love my callouses. My girlfriend will touch them and complain, which just makes me feel more manly lol. Plus there's something satisfying about grabbing onto one of my wooden tools (don't make this gross) and having that grain-on-grain feeling that I didn't get when my hands were softer.
You can get 650 sqft in midtown or the surrounding neighborhoods for 2700, probably in an okay doorman building even.
I totally buy the story from a personal perspective, but it does seem like the general cloud marketshare case across Google, Azure, and AWS is starting to normalize.

I'm excited about the possibilities of the big 3 competing on a more level playing field.

Am I being naive here, or not? It feels like a new marketplace is opening up.
That wasn't it... but this also looks super interesting.

I emailed the mentor who first introduced me to it to see if he remembers what it was called. Watch this space!
Cool poject and very compact!

Just quck question, I have found that in Initial setup docs:

> Do not use Debian GNU/Linux 9 (stretch) due to degraded performance.

Could you elaborate or give some reference about that issue please? Thanks.
People get fixated on the arch, what you should do is look at the ankle. If you're rolling your ankles, you should fix that. If your feet aren't that curvy, well your feet aren't that curvy.
Nope.

No. I suggested you might want to ask Norvig why did they decide so

I think it's a bit different. It's like you are creating completely new stuff like Big Data 15 years ago where frontend/backend separation didn't exist yet. Likely the same holds for various machine learning roles right now. So those categories we will be using in the future have to be invented first, and for that you need slightly different approach
Cool! Since you're using a digraph, it'd be neat to have a UI affordance to reverse the previous search.

All the responses I have read here discuss illicit drugs but it would be worth trying to gather some information on prescription psychiatric drugs like SSRIs, SNRIs, and Benzos. I know a lot of people who take these drugs and they are often not even talked about as being drugs. I believe the use of these drugs isn't entirely about having a serious mental disorder and are often an indicator of people being in toxic environments that breaks them down. Doctors hand out prescriptions for these drugs like candy on Halloween.
Wow, MS Office 365 costs like $100/y for 5 users, each getting 1TB of OneDrive. And also, well, Office.
I have actually worked these jobs.

When I was a teenager I had temp jobs where I was literally bussed into a plastics factory, given a few minutes of instruction, and put on the shop floor to press a button on an injection molder.

No "skill" or "devotion" required. Just a warm body.
Current estimations say this could happen around 2040-2050 and will happen before the end of the century. so not centuries but decades. And it will happen as the rise of sea level would not stop even if we stopped the increase of temperature instantly due to inertia.

Have you tried pair programming? it's more sociable, but your entire team has to do it, all code needs to be pair programmed, not a part of the time. That might increase your quality of life.
From the article it seems the map represents places fishing vessels _were_, not necessarily where fishing occurred. So a vessel en route to fishing "grounds" (what's the right term?) would be counted as fishing all along the way.
The $88K per KG price seems kind of high; perhaps that's the cost of delivering a small package to ISS and back?

If a Falcon 9 can launch 22,800 kilograms (according to Wikipedia) for about 90 million dollars (I think that was about the price of a launch if I remember correctly), then that comes out to ~$3948 per kilogram. There would be additional costs of delivering the payload exactly where it's supposed to go and dropping the finished fiber back to Earth, but in volume the price per KG seems like it could be a lot less than the quoted price (if there's a market for ZBLAN that's big enough to justify).

>A higher ASP doesn't necessarily indicate that the X has performed well, as it's possible the higher priced 8s have contributed to the overall increase.

The iPhone X was the most popular iPhone every week it was available according to Tim Cook. From the conference call transcript: https://seekingalpha.com/article/4142447-apples-aapl-ceo-tim...

"And so it was a stellar quarter for iPhone. The iPhone X was the most popular and that’s particularly noteworthy given that we didn’t start shipping until early November, and we’re constrained for a while. The team did a great job of getting into supply demand balance there in December. But since the launch of iPhone X, it has been the most popular iPhone every week, every week sales. And that is even through today, actually through January."

I use Linux primarily and have three G Suite accounts. It drives (heh) me crazy. They even moved from syncing to this FUSE-like Drive File Stream on Windows but still nothing for Linux.

Meanwhile Dropbox has a CLI client for your headless servers.

Is there a reason? I just want to understand.
There are not paid breaks or lunch breaks in the federal government, either. On the other hands, smokers get breaks. The non-smokers in my office once took a single 30-45 minute "smoke break" on Fridays. Eventually, our supervisor's manager joined in, saying it made sense.
This is awesome I hope a company like Webflow considers buying you out or building something similar.

I literally learned only a couple months ago that not being able to squat like that is a thing. (And no, I'm not a third worlder either). Incidentally I also learned a while back that I have somewhat hypermobile joints so maybe that's that.
Same. Most of the tech seems to not relate to actual blockchain use and instead talks about 'temporary authorisation of access' and data logging.

I've been using Fedora for something like five years, and I love it. It just works.
Recently I've been experiencing some weird issues with Gnome (performance wise, low fps, I guess the whole shell megathread problem) so I decided to try the KDE spin - whom a lot of people often disregarded as a "second class citizen" - and I must say I am positively surprised.

Off-topic & realize it's a throwaway account, but would be interested in discussing the career-switch with you.
Without some sort of equality or law of conservation it seems to me that nothing would be very easy to figure out. Maybe that is where the golden rule comes from, try and hold one social variable in place so that everyone can more easily understand everything else.
I think it would be interesting to have a "swap" button between the start and end points, perhaps just under where it says "to". (similar to the swap buttons in translator apps and GPS apps to quickly swap the start and end points) As some other comments have mentioned, the paths are not necessarily the same route or length, and it is fun to see how they might be different.
"Handling" dependencies automatically is fantastic when it works. But it reaches varying degrees of anarchy and hopelessness when it doesn't.

The more ambitious the framework, the more you have to wade through to figure out what it's actually doing when something breaks...I'd much rather have to deal with some cross-compilation headaches and dependencies than to be at a dead end when the 'black magic' stops working.
Let's pose a theoretical question.

I want a stand alone cellular Apple Watch, without need to tether to a main device. It’s own app store. An iPhone alternative, rather than extension.
The simple rule I have found for achieving superior performance in high level languages, particularly JavaScript is to simply do less. It isn't that simple though.

Doing less really means less code totally at the current compilation target, essentially feeding fewer total instructions to the compiler. This means no frameworks and minimal abstractions. It means having a clear appreciation for the APIs you are writing to. It means minimizing use of nested loops, which exponentially increase statement count.

Sometimes caching groups of instructions in functions can allow for cleaner code with a positive performance impact.

V8 cannot compile arithmetic assignment operators, which it calls left-side expressions, so you can see a rapid speed boost in V8 when you replace something like a += 1 with a = a + 1.

The side benefit of less code is generally clearer and cleaner code to read. There isn't any wizardry or black magic. No tricks or super weapon utilities.

As an example I wrote a new diff algorithm last year that I thought was really fast. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13983085 This algorithm is only fast because it does substantially less than other algorithms. I only wrote it because I could not wrap my head around the more famous Myers' O(ND) algorithm. A side benefit, in this case, of doing less is an algorithm that produces substantially more accurate results.
Even without the framework, Erlang/Elixir processes very naturally lend themselves to statemachine-like behaviour. Unless you're doing something really weird, the messaging behaviour is basically:

new state = old state + message
Is this mostly about the Willy bot we were all talking about in 2013?
"Public domain" image stocks absolutely don't guarantee or even check that the images they host have proper licensing, indeed. I've seen some images that had Creative Commons Attribution licenses posted on these without any attribution, "relicensed" as CC0. So... they did nothing wrong according to copyright laws?
Hence, since there's a whole lot of Vs in the wikipedia graph, he's probably going to be satisfied with an approximate solution, unless he has a lot of CPU hours to spare.
So by default I block all javascript and I got this message:

"Sorry internet hipster, this little side project requires JavaScript."

These kinds of condescending messages towards people concerned with privacy aren't going to win you any points here.
> I've done them in C and Python before as well. In C I the like the table + function pointers approach when possible. Here is an example: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/133214/is-there-a-typica....

In that particular example, I'd just like to point out how super clever it is to put `NUM_STATES` at the end of the enum in the first line. I'm fairly comfortable in C, but I never really used it with/around people who have been using it forever, so I love seeing these little tricks.
I'll give him $40 for it, I need a new project to work on any ways.
Three Painless Ways to Drastically Reduce Technical Debt
There's learn and there's learn... The way state machines were described at my uni was from the highly theoretic side. It was there right next to context-free/sensitive languages. While it was a good description, I wouldn't expect anyone finishing it to know how to actually implement it in real software - and more importantly: why.

There's CS and there are coding jobs. And sometimes they don't overlap...
Lots and lots of people with plantar fascitis are rolling their ankles. Sometimes I get lazy and lump them all in together with the 'fallen arches' crowd which is really something different and nothing I said here is going to help you with that. Apologies for the mixup.

But if you are rolling your ankles, do yourself a favor and figure that shit out while your ligaments are still in good shape.
> Would probably use a Zoolander phone if existed.

This effectively exists in the form of the Apple Watch Series 3 LTE, although it's smaller than Zoolander's phone (which had to be flipped open to use).

I've had it for a few weeks and can still hardly believe I can make and receive phone calls on the thing.
That's really interesting. As a budding guitarist, I've often wondered what are the 'music' cities in the US and around the world.

Yes, it's a repost and has been discussed here before.
Yes, I bought a few Turbo Pascal and Turbo C++ editions.

Nowadays my company pays volume licenses for MSDN.

Also, I would argue that when one buys an Apple computer, given the price difference to PCs, the price of the development tools is included.

Apparently an idiot here. What is the difference between web hosting and server hosting?

The way my mind interprets that stack is the database is hosted on firebase while the page is hosted on the server?

Actually a launch to LEO costs less than 60Million $. But you need a reentry vehicle as well. If you want to start tomorrow, your only choice would be a dragon spacecraft. It can bring back 3t of cargo. Depending on the price tag of the dragon and its refurbishment (I would assume up to 40 million), I'd calculate up to 33k$ per kg at today's market.
Pretty sure I should be the target market for this, and I bought one. But I don't use it and it sits unplugged on the shelf. I'm going to sell it while the going is good.

It's just so pointless. You have to speak to it in some weird specific way to get it to integrate with other stuff and it feels so completely invasive.

My wife is the other end of the scale of target market. Complete non-techie, absolute ease of use consumer. She used it as a glorified egg timer, bluetooth speaker and occasionally to play some radio (when it didn't cut out). IT did nothing else for her and adding skills herself was a PITA step too far.

I'm a 'millennial' (if that matters) but this just doesn't have a place in my home. Even my kids, who loved shouting at it to play music, got bored of it and went back to selecting music on their devices.

Maybe I'm getting old but it just feels like Alexa and other voice assistants are just getting shoved into stuff because it is a 'tech spec' and they hope that will sell their device.

It's 3D all over again.
It is from the standpoint of the average user that doesn't want to hassle with figuring out what backup provider to use, figure out what software they need to install, or wants to share the data automatically between multiple devices natively.
> We're coming out of 1,000 year ice age which means we've, geologically, had an ice age recently.

We (due to climate change) may be coming out of a 2.58 million year ice age (an ice age is a period during which at least one permanent large ice sheet exists; in the case of the current one, it is the Antarctic.)

The last glacial period with the within the current ice age ended 10,000 years ago, so even if you were using “ice age” to refer to a glacial period, we’re not coming out of one of those, either. (The “Little Ice Age”, which you link to the Wikipedia page for, was neither an ice age nor a glacial period, but—as the article you link to notes—a set of regional cool periods at different but close times after the end of the Medieval Warm Period.)

> With continual reduction of greenhouse gases by our growing efforts we could be open to a building of the arctic in the next 500-1000.

Because of the different albedo (ice reflects 50+% percent of solar radiation, sea water around 6%) melting Arctic sea ice will accelerate warming; it's a positive feedback loop; plus, we haven't even started reduction of greenhouse gases, nor have we even achieved reduction in the rate of increase—I think we've managed to decrease the rate of increase of the rate of increase, but that's a far cry from reducing greenhouse gases.)

I personally haven't used any drugs (and started drinking socially only in the past 3 years), but I know some founders (CxO) level using amphetamines almost daily (Adderall from kids' prescriptions or faked shipments from India/Russia) to keep them high performing and focused (US). It also made them more robotic and less compassionate. I haven't seen anyone taking other types of drugs regularly; some smoke cigarettes or weed, but that is becoming acceptable in Europe recently.

I think you are downplaying it a bit here. The temperature is already well on its path of increasing several degrees. Economy will probably cease to exist. There will be no humanitarian crisis but simply people mass dying. The "conflicts" may be nukes or sticks and stones but there's also a possibility that there will be relatively few conflicts depending on the strength of the culture of selfish in the local area.
Thanks for the reply (and for answering my question in it)! I disagree on some conclusions, but that's not really relevant to this topic no matter how interesting it'd be.

I'm a bit lost on one aspect though - in relation to the original purpose, I thought you were saying that advocating for mass transit in a city is a battle that cannot be won, and that cities could be designed to avoid the need for mass transit. Now I'm reading you as saying that not everyone will like mass transit and that a significant group will avoid cities - which are different statements than my original reading (and points I agree with). Am I missing something, or do I now get your core points?

If you wiped both, Google would be more noticed. But Goldman Sachs would have a WAY WAY bigger effect indirectly.

Google MarketCap is based on a promise that tech is taking over the world, but the day to day business of Google is pretty much insignificant.

Goldman literally decides the direction of the world through their investments, policy and lobbies.

The fact that they are pretty much invisible is actually a feature.

Hidden cost of housing: A shortage of Bay Area workers to build it
I think Karl Marx is right about a lot things, I think Adam Smith is right about a lot of things- I think our(The US, Global Economy) current system must be incredibly flawed for so much wealth to be concentrated in such a way that a shockingly small group of individuals hold a useless amount of wealth. Redistribution in the form of systems that improve everyone's quality of life is the only thing that makes sense...I honestly don't think how one could see otherwise?
