Right now judging from Cloudflare's benchmarks, the win will be in TDP. [1] Heat is a very nasty issue to handle in large datacenters, and can end up costing quite a bit in cooling.

I'm really not sure how the two can be separate. In user interface concepts, UI design and UX go hand in hand. As a matter of fact, they do not just for UI but almost everywhere else. Case in point, Apple's glass windows that caused people to hit their heads in them by mistake. Terrible design and terrible UX.
Not sure that's quite right either. I have no recollection of any events before the age of 10 or so.

The author's main point is that Slack results in a walled garden and information silo'ing of our conversations.

The author then went on to provide a potential antidote to that problem by discussing a javascript project they been working on.
How to choose the right platform for the marketplace?
Starting the online marketplace business, young entrepreneurs may face a fairly common problem, it is the problem of choosing between several suitable platforms for the future marketplace. Of course, it’s the best to ask the help of the experts, but you can also try to solve this yourself, using a free tool created specifically for comparison platforms for marketplaces!

It’s called Marketplace Comparison Tool, and it is very easy to use.

With Marketplace Comparison Tool you can decide which platform is better for your marketplace according to such parameters as a pricing model, supported languages, payment system, multivendor shopping cart, coupons support and others.

Per text of the article, McHardy was asking for restitution involving not just future compliance, but also direct cash payments to him, of more than a million euros per violation, which had apparently already resulted in settlements which got him "at least a few million euros".
I don't see anything conductive to actual work that slack has but IRC lacks. the software industries and choices of tools such as chat clients are fashion-driven and most people will be hard pressed to provide a reason why they prefer slack or discord or whatever the newest shiny toy is other than "it's popular". They're popular, in turn, because their owners have marketing budgets, and decentralized, superior alternatives don't, because they are not commercial products. Just accept that any choice of tools or technologies is typically at least 95% irrational and dictated by marketing, not by rational reasons or calculations of risks and benefits. It used to be that companies would never risk third parties getting hold of confidential internal communications, nobody cares anymore though.

It doesn't check runtime (AFAIK neither does Go, it checks compile time). In fact, Python fully ignores any type hints.

When coupled with mypy (http://mypy-lang.org/) they can be used to do type checking at "compile time", and with DropBox's pyannotate (https://github.com/dropbox/pyannotate), they can even be auto generated for existing code.

I'm not saying Python with type hints is better than a statically typed language, merely suggesting a possible solution if Python ends up being the preferred language.

Personally i love Go for the things i've used it for, and i've written and maintained large code bases in Python, and hated every minute of it. The same can be said for large code bases i've written in C, or even Java.

I've written kernels for GSM mobile phones, software for sortation devices (airport baggage sorters, mail sorters, etc), banking software, and despite our teams best intentions, given enough time and customization to meet customer demands, there is always some remote corner of the code that ends up as a "steaming pile"

The failure of MOOCs #10 is a failure of metric measurement.

In the old days if you wanted to learn something, often you'd pay $20 to $50 for a book. For example, Amazon order search claims that somewhere I have a copy of "Paradigms of Artificial Intelligence Programming" by Norvig, which is supposed to be a decent book in the field, cool. Ironically maybe that IS the textbook for the famous AI MOOC class, I don't know, maybe it should be if it isn't. However I never finished the class, only glossed thru the book, and barely remember either.

I was curious about the topic, not trying to meet someone elses arbitrary goalpost, and the "graduates" metric isn't a useful number.

Kinda the difference between running because its a beautiful day out and I need exercise, and running a competitive marathon against live athletes in person solely for the goal of getting a number when I run thru a gate. I would guess in the general public the former outnumbers the latter 50 to 1, so the MOOC stats aren't unusual at all.

Another interesting analogy is "The Mona Lisa" painting is a failure if you measure its worth solely based on number of PHD students graduating who give it credit for them selecting "Art History" as a major. That doesn't mean it needs to be burned as a failure.
Here is a good overview of issues with the studies and attempts to correct:

Python is excellent for prototyping and small projects. When projects become older and bigger, the lack of strong typing makes maintenance very difficult. If you can keep your projects small, I recommend python. If your project needs to become big, why not using java? Even if I really do not like Oracle, the language (and tooling) works very well for big projects and java developers are as easy to find as python developers.

Monetary penalties should be used only as a threat, for example in cases where entities are unwilling to come into compliance, rather than a goal; My understanding is that McHardy is doing something much more equitable to patent trolling, attempting to obtain large payouts for past violations, whereas the preferred methodologies would be to pursue legal penalty against contract violations only in cases where prior requests and legal actions have failed to cause a noncompliant entity to fall into line.

MOOCs were propagated as alternative to traditional higher education. Not just something educated people use to add to their education, but something an uneducated person with high school diploma can use to get equivalent of college. I remember reading those optimistic articles.

At that it failed. It is not cheaper education for non traditional non full time student with lack of money. They drop out faster or equally fast then non traditional students on colleges (who drop out a a lot too).

It is great free easy to use option for educated professional through. But, that was not original sell.

> Why is the upfront cost bigger for TBMs?

Because a TBM itself is a large capital investment. A small TBM (~7m diameter) is ~10m€, a large TBM probably reach 100m€. This is money you have to pay upfront before the TBM even reaches the dig.

The capital investment of D&B is a (few) jumbos which are cheaper (even large and expensive jumbos are unlikely to breach 2m€ brand new), more flexible (they're also used in mining operations) and less dependent of the manufacturer — thus easier to rent or buy used.

That's still expensive as hell, and you've still sunk the money in until the builder has examined and bought back the gantries after the project has ended.

> Not just something educated people use to add to their education, but something an uneducated person with high school diploma can use to get equivalent of college.

It seems premature to say that it isn't provided that. You have your entire life to gain a college-level education. The primary reason that brick and mortar schooling is provided up front, in a relatively short span of time, is because it is impractical to visit that brick and mortar school on a regular basis throughout your entire life. Like the article points out, a major hurdle for a large segment of the population in accessing brick and mortar schooling is proximity to those brick and mortar schools.

Online learning has no such constraints. You can be out in the middle of nowhere and still pop into class whenever you feel like it. If it takes you 80 years to complete your college-level studies, great. To say that is a failure, only a few years after becoming available, seems to miss the point of what alternative means. If a MOOC had to be exactly like brick and mortar schooling, it wouldn't be an alternative, it would be the same thing.

Although I concede that a fatal flaw of MOOCs is that there are an infinite number of options online. While it may be impractical to visit 100 different brick and mortar schools to see who teaches a specific topic the best, online it is easy to do so and can be done in an instant. With that, there is no incentive to go through your studies only in one spot that can be tracked by a single entity. This makes it challenging from a business perspective, but not an education perspective.
Competition does not stop when you don't want to see it. It exists already by the virtue of having multiple similar products in the first place. You can't wish that away. The world doesn't work that way.

>which I considered inappropriate

You never specified what about it is inappropriate. Your complaints about the language amounted at most to a pathetic ad hominem.

>As a result you replied in a way that missed any understanding and respect

There was nothing to understand as you had not communicated anything but the fact you found it somehow offensive. As the comment contains nothing offensive you need to be more specific. Since you didn't do that it comes of just as a dismissive personal attack.

>and harshly critized me for writing in an unintelligible way

This is because the sentence was unintelligible even when I'd asked multiple people to try to interpret it. This is not harsh criticism, it's just a statement of a fact.

>(I accidentally left out one word in a sentence, sorry for that)

The lack of that word made the sentence completely nonsensical. Why are you whining to me about not understanding it? And it seems you never fixed the sentence so it's still just as unintelligible.
