You're not going to spend the resources basically doing the same thing twice with another Maps provider.

Urn effectively tries to be it's own language which sits on top of the Lua runtime. I've tried to take the nicest bits of Lua and combine it with macros and a little more compile-time checking. Though I'm not entirely sure how successful I've been...

Urn was is very much an experimental project for me: part of me wanted to see how much I could do with as little syntax. Consequently Urn has comparatively few "special forms", but meaning it generates less idiomatic Lua.

Fennel is much more an alternative syntax to Lua. Most Lua constructs have a corresponding Fennel form, meaning the generated code looks more "like Lua". Lua interop is also much nicer: Urn requires you to declare all variables, so you have to jump through hoops to use external libraries. With Fennel you can just go ahead like you would with Lua.

Intelligence is highly context-dependent.

And classroomS optimize for various different outputs, depending on what the school system or the teachers value.

Some optimize for autonomy, or fulfillment, or realization.
Some optimize for output, within the class environment, or outside of it.
Some optimize for compliance (attitude, grades, performance on grades, certification).

And they can do it using various techniques (carrot or stick?).
They don't have well developed financial systems.
In terms of compression for scanned notes, I haven't found anything that comes close to what even an older version of Adobe Acrobat yields, due to the use of the JBIG2 codec. Has anybody found any way to compress PDF files with JBIG2 on Linux/Mac? It's pretty much the only reason I have to find a Windows machine with Acrobat installed a couple of times a year, to postprocess a batch of scanned PDFs.
For the most part Texture doesn't deal with preprod. work for the brands. Like Apple News, the established brands will design their own and publish either print-PDF or custom HTML versions. There is usually infrastructure to streamline that production process.

The publishing industry in general widely uses Adobe AEM (& AEM Mobile) to that end.

I hope Apple improves upon Texture, personally. They were kind of a closed-off black box. A lot of compatibility work had to be done through trial-and-error. There was no published standard. Apple News was very thorough that way.
I'm not just being diplomatic when I say that hopefully we can avoid the Rust vs. Go debate here. :P WASM is a bid to help future-proof the relevancy of the web in the face of mobile app stores, and seeing many languages embrace it is a good thing, no matter what those languages are. Heck, since WASM is sandboxed anyway it doesn't even matter if you choose C or C++ over Go or Rust, since memory unsafety shouldn't be exploitable from WASM anyway.

Yes And I guess only time will tell. If we travel back in time, and told Paul Otellini that Apple is going to make 100 to 200M chip a year with Intel, going for prices less then $30 per unit. Would Otellini have said yes? For some reason I doubt it. When there was no transformation of Smartphone to the industry, and saw importance of PC shrinks in his own eyes.

Purely looking at those numbers. For the same amount of transistor @$30, Intel were selling those at anywhere between $80 to $300. Not to mention Intel has to invest in Fabs just for Apple as 100 - 200M is no small numbers.

Intel cares about its margin, and its profitability. Sometimes we argue we should do things at lower margin to avoid the risk of being wiped out. Sometimes vice versa.

I am not entirely sure what Intel's exec were thinking, they were possibly driven out of Apple and Mobile decision because of fear of shareholders protest at lowering margins, and driven back to Mobile precisely because of shareholders.

And not only is Intel late to Mobile. They were late to GPU as well, and GPGPU in general. We are now looking at 2020 before an dGPU from Intel is out.

Basically Intel hasn't been innovating for a few years. And may be they haven't been to war for a long time. They loses the sense of danger. May be they were typical Silicon Valley's optimist where everything is going to be fine.

Which strangely is different to Andy Grove, only paranoid survives.

But then I dont see x86 ever lose out in PC or Datacenter Market. Right now the biggest threat is AMD, and that is not an existential threat.

I also dont see how Broadcom and Qualcomm merge would be an existential threat to Intel. Apple might not use Intel's modem, but that is not exactly a problem. Intel needed some customers to use its product so it could at least cover the R&D cost of modem, which is getting insanely complicated. And Mobile Network has already reached an inflection point where Modem aren't going to get the rapid development and improvement as we had in the last 10 years.

With iPhone, we manage to move from End of 2G to 3G to 4G and now to 5G. All within 10 years. We have reached a stage where Top Speed no longer sales. Market wants more data, or higher capacity rather then unattainable top 1Gbps speed. We have Massive MIMO and LAA, and in the next 5 years we will see anywhere from 4x to 20x capacity improvement, along with better reception. All these improvement are now bottlenecked by Carrier upgrading their sites, assuming we have a steady rate of mobile phones upgrade.

Intel has a clear market of 1.5 Billion PC to upgrade to, while not everyone will be upgrading their PC with Modem. It is by no means a small market. And Apple has their own W2 with 802.11n and Bluetooth 4.1. It is only a matter of time before they have their own 802.11ac and Bluetooth 5, as well as possible 802.11ax. All these are currently coming from Broadcom. I am much more worried about Broadcom then Intel.

In addition, what happens to the local building trades, whether established or nascent? Are they integrated into the scheme or made redundant?

After watching the video, it's evident this method of construction has another disadvantage over the lifecycle of the structure: The walls cannot be easily modified. (And this is a characteristic and complaint of nearly all poured-in-place concrete construction, often cited by institutional caretakers of brutalist buildings.)

An economical house should be able to change and grow according to the needs and means of its owners. That's much more difficult when adding a door or window requires a diamond-blade, water-cooled saw to cut through a thick structural concrete web while avoiding embedded service conduits. In comparison, walls of concrete block, brick, and wooden studs are more readily modified, though each has other favorable and unfavorable characteristics.
No, I'm not. For one, I've never used it. The parent comment was referring to how they provided endpoints for programs connecting through open protocols, and now that they have some sort of critical mass, just dismissing the users of the service that utilize it through those. And my comment supports the viewpoint that we fall in for UX and convenience and low/no cost, then get screwed like this.

--the new JobScheduler only works on 8.0 or Google Play services

actually, it works on Android 5.0, thats the version it was introduced in.

-> In Android 8.0, you need to use Google Play services to get Location, Stepcounter, any device sensor,
You don't necessarily have to go through play services for any of these. API's are available in the platform for all of them or can be replicated.

I think the possible anti competitive behaviour from Google(in Android's case) is forcing the OEM's to install their apps by default.and practically forcing developers to use Play services for notifications.
Something like Quassel had most of this functionality more than 5 years ago, while looking at least as good as Slack. I haven't used it in a long time but I'm pretty sure the setup was simple (not one click, but certainly easier than tmux, etc). It's a Qt app, so might be a better fit for non-technical users.
A few years ago, the thought occurred to me that a lot of christians are overweight, and I came up with hypothesis: since many indulgences are considered by many as forbidden, the remaining indulgence of food might tend to be overused. I focused on alcohol, since many christians (especially in the south) think it's sinful to drink alcohol. I looked up maps of alcohol use and maps of obesity. I didn't do the work to combine them, but looking at the maps side-by-side, it appears my hypothesis may be correct: https://www.evernote.com/shard/s5/sh/18dbb20c-29bb-412d-8d5d....

How is the completion rate a better measure of value added than the absolute number of finishers?
Yes. But first, I assume you mean book-based intelligence as there are many different ways to be “intelligent,” such as physically, relationally, emotionally.

Performing well in school is comprised of several skills, including test-taking, relating well with others, collaboration, etc . Anxiety, fear, issues at home, etc can cause anyone to perform worse than they otherwise would, especially on tests. If your authority figures at home (eg parents) are terrible, then you are very likely to dislike the authority figures at your school, which will cause problems and often lead to poorer grades.
Well, first of all it's so awesome to get a reply from someone who actually works there! :-)

I understand what you're saying. Of course, we're aware of the overhead compared to just including an image with a HTML tag, it was just a test to see if we could make the thing work with the minimum amount of complexity possible.

For us, it's not important to support mobile browsers: the latest desktop browsers would suffice. However, we can't build for the web without a 10-second delay before the image is shown.

What we're looking to achieve is to use Unity for native games as well as very simple animations for the web (a 2D landscape with parallax, at the moment), so that we have only 1 editor, and 1 technology to learn.

I'm also not the person who will actually build the product, I'm just helping out with research and I'm not extremely familiar with WASM and similar. What is a JavaScript release build? Is that a way of exporting the project that would allow us to eliminate that 10-second delay?
Super duper late, but I still haven't had time to read any of the papers (there are like 4 if I really want to get anywhere close to understanding their spin on gossip + the lattice thing) -- glad the discussion is still interesting though.

I'm starting to think that the quorum strategy is something like a theoretical lower bound -- at least until someone brilliant figures out a way past it (or technology shifts in some gigantic way or something).
Hmm, not sure I fully follow. I'll number my steps to help discussion:

1) The argument assumes that I can generate all programs and name them, right?

2)This indicates that there is a way to write a program in javascript which gives me f_i for i. Let's call that function gen_f(i)

3) Isn't the function fbar(i)=1-eval(gen_f(i))(i) a valid program? It obviously fulfills the premise.

4) The only way out here that I see is that gen_f is not halting, or that eval(gen_f(i)) is not halting.

5) The first case is possible, but then we can not generate the table, and without the table, it's not clear that fbar exists.

6) The second case means that we generated a non-halting function, i.e. f_i is not a computable function, and not part of F.

So, if we write a function gen_f, it's either not sound, as it gives functions which are actually not in F, or not complete, because it can then never give fbar. That's the trick, right?

So what? How is this at all relevant?

The title is missleading!

The code is checked when it is pushed to the main repository... The code and the bug already exists, the developer is responsible for that.

Each module has to have it's own GC.

In my experience, it's been easier to integrate two languages that have GC (JavaScript and Go) than two languages where only one is GC'd (JavaScript and Rust).

What will the interop with Rust and JavaScript look like? How will pointers be managed?

What I'm missing here is why we need to market it as a distinct Rust 2018 release. Do we have breaking changes that require a new epoch/edition? The "Language improvements" section doesn't clarify that. I just hope there is substance in this push, a real technical reason for a new release, not a marketing one.
When there's money to be made, science is compromised.
One of the biggest issues with looking at tracking issues for me is that it's impossible to judge either priority or complexity. This one for instance is a good one.

I honestly cannot grasp this idea that Android dev is more difficult than web dev. Especially when, to get started with Android, you just download Android Studio (1 tool). To get started with web development, you have any number of competing or complimentary or overlapping tools, the combination of which seems to change every week.
None of the "health" benefits you listed have any objective benefit to health. How does listing a big mac meal at 1200 calories suddenly make it more healthy? Eating non-frozen beef does't magically reduce the risk of colorectal cancer, it's still red meat. And a handful of iceberg lettuce covered in fatty, sugary dressing (I think McDonald's calls this a salad?) doesn't magically make me lose weight.

It sounds like you're getting wrapped up in the marketing of corporate food and confusing it for valid science (I'm not saying my comment or the parent comment is valid science, just that what we're doing distinctly isn't science, so don't throw your stones in a glass house).

Since JS and Go do not have the same GC you have the same issue there.
And ARM is little endian in all currently deployed processors.

So about only pitfall is assembler, SIMD intrinsics and depending on undefined behaviour like arithmetic or not signed right shift.
Oh and different thread safety guarantees. ARM is much more lax with loads and stores and will require locking and correct use of atomic operations.

I like the idea, but DjVu seems to be very proprietary / single vendor and not in widespread use. This has made me reluctant to use it for archival purposes (vs say PDF, which has its own issues, but feels slightly more future proof to me).

I think PDF can cover pretty much the same ground with JBig and Jpeg2k. (And I believe archive.org is doing that.) But I don't know of any open source code to do the segmentation / encoding. (You have to split the bitmap from the background for jbig / jpeg encoding.)

Marketing reasons are just as "real" as technical reasons.

Editions can do two things:

* add new keywords

* make lints go from warn to deny

Both of these things are "breaking." An example of the former is the "catch" keyword, allowing you to use ? inside a block rather than for the whole function body. An example of the latter is the module changes; the older style will be a warning in 2015 and an error in 2018.
so... we pretty much completely agree :)
That's a very black and white point of view. There's lots of grey areas and varying urgencies for problems. I'm sure most respectable programmers would take care of matters as fast as they could, even if it isn't that urgent.

If it takes me an hour to take systems back up after things go bad during the after-hours, it's not because I was purposely not doing my work. It's because that's literally what took me to fix the problem.

Programmers aren't magicians and we certainly aren't out there to get you and waste your time on purpose.
