Russia has way more nuclear warheads than US. This has been true since later stages of Cold War (although the gap has narrowed a lot since end of Soviet Union, Russians used to have about 40 thousand nukes in mid 80s). What they lack in high tech and quality they make up with much larger quantities. It’s also a part of strategy to overwhelm any sort of anti missile defense US might have.

Functional components are clearly the superior style --
the readability advantage alone overrides pretty much everything else (compare reading an almost-declarative function vs having to grok a mini state machine).

People always get dragged back to class components because some things (interacting with browser APIs) have to, at some point, be handled statefully. Some of the comments on that article seem to confirm this mentality. However, the better response when you find yourself "needing" a class component is to implement the stateful logic you need as an HoC (which may internally create a class component.. or recompose's `lifecycle`). This is always possible and you'll thank yourself later when that stateful logic is trivially reusable, easier to compose and test, and separated from any application logic.

Very nice history.

I couldn't understand the "how AChE works" portion, but found this article and its diagrams helpful. https://faculty.washington.edu/chudler/weap.html near as I can understand it, our entire body including heart and lungs work by cells sending messages to and from the nervous system. When the nervous system is no longer able to rely messages, our vital organs stop working. So if our nervous system is like a chain of inbox/outbox message relay system, the letters are ACh. When one cell's axon sends an ACh to the next cell, the next cell's inbox becomes full and nothing else can be received until it's cleared. AChE is the enzyme that clears a full inbox. Nerve agents bind to the site on an AChE that grabs ACh. Without the ability for these AChE protein to "clears the inbox", our nervous system cells can't communicate anymore, stopping these messages entirely.

I'm not sure exactly what ACh actually does other than "activate", but since they are used by central and peripheral nervous system, I'm guessing it's bad news bear. Little more detail here

> Filling that list out is not a higher priority for the Mozilla staff over getting the stuff done we need to experiment with delivering the web on VR & AR devices.

This is extremely disappointing.

I think the amount of users you can win back from Chrome with a Servo browser is much larger than any VR audience you can hope to gain in the near future. I simply don't understand how these things cannot be done in parallel. Mozilla has hundreds of millions in cashflow, right?

Looks like Servo will be another exciting Mozilla project that will be prematurely dropped after a ton of work and hype-up. RIP Firefox OS, Persona, Thunderbird, etc... :(
Thanks, I hadn't heard they finally figured out why/how asbestos was causing cancer.
Agree on Hammerklavier. I have a pet theory that Große Fugue is an elaborate troll on Beethoven's part. I kind of think that it was constructed in such a way to be as analytically rich as possible while being horrible to listen to. I have to wonder if it wasn't deliberately constructed by Beethoven to con future generations into listening to awful music.

Where Brahms is concerned, very few composers matched his mastery of the craft. That being said, Bach is one of them.

I think Bach is so consistently regarded as the GOAT because (AFAIK) no one has matched his output while maintaining the high level of quality he did.

Also, he wrote St. Matthew's Passion which is arguably the greatest piece of music in the entire western canon. I can think of very few other reasonable contenders for that spot.

As far as composers being greater than Bach in any particular area, I 100% agree. Brahms was probably the best chamber composer, Chopin wrote the best music for piano etc...

Tail Recursion Tactics: Fibonacci
They do not appear in the real data, you have one g stronger than all others. This g has as much explanatory power as noise. Frobenius–Perron guarantees it would always appear whether there is one strong underlying influence on the data or hundreds unrelated ones.

Factor analysis used to establish g doesn't and can't have the power to tell. There are numerous and intense attempts to paper over this mathematical fact by circumstantial evidence, I'm not up to date with all the contortions. I don't think they can make linear algebra a causal theory: when you want to replace your data with linear combination of factors there will happen to be a strongest factor.

To somewhat answer the direct question: how to check factors. There is Confirmatory Factor Analysis that checks how factors decay. You take out factors you see as accounting for most of the variance in the data and check if indeed not much partial correlation is left. This has most power to negate an influence but next to none or very little power to confirm it not being spurious.

These wikipedia pages don't look any good, but I don't want to evaluate that right now or chase better material

Servo is actually not typically viewed as realistically completable.
Even Firefox, which is being developed full-pelt, is behind on web standards (like any other browser is).

So, for Servo to catch up to the current state of Firefox and to then also keep pace with new web standards, it would have to be developed much quicker than Firefox is being developed. So, that would require more than double the development capacity that Mozilla currently has, as they can't drop Firefox development either.

There is some points that could alleviate this:
<ul>
<li>A smaller project grows quicker,
<li>it being written in Rust might speed up development in the long run and
<li>several components are now shared between Firefox and Servo, meaning that the development and maintenance work is shared as well,
<ul>
but it still is far away from realistically completable.

Which is also not what the project is meant to be. It's a research project. Trying out new things, creating components that can be used in Firefox, and doing experiments with VR or similar are exactly what it can be used for.

It's not meaningless, it prevents past messages from being compromised by a future breach. Future messages are still compromised, but past messages are secure.

By your logic you could say that forward secrecy is meaningless. But yet security professionals recommend that you use a TLS key exchange with forward secrecy.

Your link seems ambiguous on that point, with 1710 deployed nuclear warheads for Russia vs. 1800 for U.S. (I used the word "stockpile", but realistically, only deployed warheads count since nuclear war has a tendency to be over in an hour.)

Regardless, if you're Russian you should also carefully consider whether your national interest aligns with the continued existence of humanity, at least as far as nuclear weapons go.

I think you're probably listening to the wrong Bach. I don't think that newbies should generally approach Bach's keyboard repertoire first. I'd recommend starting with the cantatas and maybe parts of St Matthew's Passion. Also, even amongst people who make classical music a living, Bach can be an acquired taste, so I wouldn't feel bad if it doesn't click. I studied piano performance in school many moons ago and only recently have come to appreciate Bach's keyboard literature, and even then only in part (I quite enjoy the Goldbergs, keyboard concerti, and dance suites. I'm not sure I could be paid to listen to WTC in its entirety--though I obviously heard and played quite a bit of it on account of studying piano performance.)

I've tested it on my own phone (Lumia 920), and a background audio recording uses about a half to a quarter as much power as the Gmail (IMAP) app - it's pretty negligible. Compressing it to send over the wire might use more (I was recording to WAV), but with the right choice of codec (e.g. GSM-HR as mentioned below) I can't see it adding all that much. A common complaint is that the Facebook app uses a lot of battery anyway, so the costs of audio recording probably _could_ (I doubt they _are_) be buried in that.

I suspect the butter is the result of two substitutions. This has happened to many recipes.

First, there was a money-saving switch from lard to commercial shortening or margarine. Either one was made of partially hydrogenated vegetable oil.

Second, due to trans fats or a desire to be less fake, that got switched to butter.

Lard makes wonderful brownies. Compared to butter, the taste comes out far cleaner. The purity of the chocolate really comes through.

Another fine option is coconut oil.

Simply, no. Marijuana prohibition is bad law, and convictions just for selling and possessing weed, unaccompanied by any other criminal activity, are morally and ethically unjustifiable.

I don't understand what you're trying to accomplish by bringing taste or sense of value into this.

A Servo browser product is not possible in the near future. That is very much a far future thing. Web compatibility is hard.

Servo has a lot more potential in platforms where you don't need to support the _entire_ set of browser features -- like as an electron replacement, or a platform for something like webVR, or Android embedding (which will probably come out of the VR work as well).

I was convinced about CSS in JS after using http://www.material-ui.com/, which remains the easiest-to-integrate JS component library I've ever used.

Previous to CSS in JS, component libraries had to incude additional installation instructions ranging from "include this pre-minified CSS file and don't use the same classnames" to "setup a custom sass build step"; and customizable theming was a crapshoot. material-ui is practically `npm install` and go (well, it does need Roboto font, but thats a 1liner). Both theming and per-component overrides are simple and idiomatic.

I'm aware that is one source. It absolutely isn't the entire explanation.

Though I have no idea why you are taking me to task here since it was intended as tongue in cheek humor mirroring the famous movie line to the effect that "The only way to win is not to play".

However, if you want to debate this, it is humorous to me due to the element of truth that I essentially never clean, I just don't let things get dirty. But most people don't actually want to have any idea how that can be done because whenever I talk about my personal choices for my life, they feel judged in an ugly way for reasons I cannot fathom.

Not saying it is literally true that you can simply never clean. But you can do a lot more prevention than most people seem to imagine is possible.

And, of course, I have long utilized a few loop holes that will largely go away should I manage to buy a house.
Because the traits beneficial to meat production (like growth rate, muscle development etc) are inversely correlated to the traits beneficial to egg production (feeding efficiency, eggs per year, egg size...).

Part of that is that the animal only has so much energy to spend, the other is that when breeding for one trait, one invariably tends to neglect other traits.
We're still working on web compatibility; that's not changing.

But I don't think we've ever had a concrete goal to have a standalone Servo browser. Parts of servo in firefox? Sure. Trying out new ideas? Sure. Embedding servo a la electron or WebkitView? Sure. But Servo as a standalone browser has always been a "maybe someday" thing -- we've never worked against it, but I don't recall us ever explicitly targeting it, though I think most of us have always had some hope that we'll reach that point eventually.
I think it parallels the online culture around shilling/astroturfing -- no one wants to be lumped in that category, so people are extra careful to air their laundry before someone tries to spin an armchair-investigative Google search against them after finding their employment history.
