I might have said that Preferences was much the same as ever, for most practical purposes, with only comparatively minor improvements; but one thing particularly stands out as a massive improvement: the search box. Now I don’t need to know where what I want to tweak is, if only I know what to search for, which I pretty much always do.

I guess they mean extra API that utilize stuff that's in HTTP/2 but not in HTTP/1.1.
I disagree with the author, getters and setters are a good tool to have and used in the right place.

Setters are great when you want to do some validation and add an entry in a log when the setter is used.

There are rules what not to do in getters or in setters so if you use does practices you are ok.
Getters, yes.

I would argue that everything that can be immutable should be immutable though unless you have good reason for it to be mutable.

Tab Groups isn't in v56 either. What you're looking for is actually there, at least most of it:

Once you can hide tabs, you can basically have tab groups.
So now we all know- Elaine Herzberg did not run out in front of the car, as
the police said, she was walking at a normal pace; she was not in the shadows-
the camera footage is typically darker than human vision; and the reason why
the first thing the driver knew of the crash was the sound of it is because
she didn't have her eyes on the road.

And all the cars sensors, its superior perception of its environment and its
superhuman reaction times were no use, without a human-level understanding of
its environment to go with them. It couldn't tell that there was a person
crossing the road in front of it and even if it did it didn't have a concept
of what a person is and why it should try to avoid them, or in any case, it
just didn't know what to do about it.

So can we now please roll back the off-the-charts hype about self-driving cars
being safer than human drivers? It's abundantly clear that this is not yet the
truth (not yet. yet). That's just not the state of the art, at this point.
We're like the people jumping off towers with crazy "flying" apparatus, in the
18th century, because they were convinced they could fly that way.

Or maybe we should just stop pretending that what we really care about is
safety and let's we just want to have cool tech toys to play with, no
matter the consequences.

Credit card companies also have a lot of data on us - they know what stuff we are buying. Is this industry limited in how it may share this data for fun and profit?

According to this source they do sell this data and it is used in targeted advertising: http://www.businessinsider.com/credit-cards-sell-purchase-da...

I wonder what has more weight - the purchase history or what one is searching on google? Now I would consider the purchase history of a user to be more conclusive than what he/she has been searching on google. Now go figure what the business minded people have been smoking.

What is next? I would go for an analysis of the composition of garbage that goes out of a residential neighborhood; there is lots of data in it. Garbage analysis may be the next frontier! (and there is total coverage - even duckduckgo users are covered)
In the end you have to trust somebody. If you can't trust your instance admin, you can run your own, (even single-user),instance, however that still doesn't protect you from your host provider being malicious etc.
> However, what do we propose to do?

1. Ideally, we don't allow corporations to control so much of our communications.

2. Barring 1, we should set the expectation that communication platforms should protect their users' freedom of speech, with laws to enforce this.

> At the end of the day, these are private companies and they can enforce whatever arbitrary guidelines they want within the laws of the countries they operate in.

This is descriptive of reality but not prescriptive of how reality should be. As far as I am concerned, corporations don't have rights, people do, and when corporations start infringing on the rights of people (such as the right to free speech) that's a problem.
Jealousy is generally related to human feelings. "feeling or showing a resentful suspicion that one's partner is attracted to or involved with someone else."

It is mostly incorrectly used by people to depict envy. Also it became also a cool factor. "Your trip to Jamaica makes me jealous". Huh ?
Envy is about "a feeling of discontented or resentful longing aroused by someone else's possessions, qualities, or luck."

So you are actually envious. So stop being resentful at someone's luck or connections :)

>I imagine they're trying to imply that someone who was convicted of a serious crime could still be an unreliable, irresponsible, or untrustworthy person.

Sure, the whole point being that it is meaningless and IMHO disturbing to imply that.

Not that I am familiar with bank robbers, and of course have no idea on the specific crime for which the driver was earlier condemned, but I believe that bank robbers need to be actually rather punctual, have planning capabilities and usually be exceptionally good drivers, at least this is what Hollywood usually shows us.

>I don't think it is, though personally I think it's reasonable to take the information into account as long as you restrain yourself from jumping to any conclusions.

I wonder how you take that into account without making any conclusion or however influence your opinion, this kind of info is IMHO either relevant or not (gratuitious).

It is a car accident, where the automatic means failed and the driver supposed to take commands in case of failure of the automated system didn't or couldn't, the criminal past of the guy has no relevance, it is more likely that the whole thing happened too fast, or that he was distracted, and unless and until it is established that the accident was caused voluntarily or by "voluntary inaction".

What if the driver was differently "marked" by society?

Like - say - known to belong to the Communist Party or to the Neo Nazi's?

Or if he was mentioned as being (choose one) gay, transgender, black, latino, illegally immigrated?

What kind of added info is that in the context of a car accident?
Not denying that some people might think that, but such reasoning doesn't make sense. Even if someone hasn't taken time off before, they're still capable of doing so in the future.
At least it works for you, for me Firefox just starts eating gigabytes of RAM when starting up and then finally it stops and maybe becomes usable, but even then, without proper HW acceleration Youtube, WebGL games and kerning are awful.

If anyone has suggestions how I could get all those things fixed it would be really welcome. I'm using an Intel Core 2 6700 with Intel 965Q graphics with 8GB of RAM.
The argument for getters and setters is much stronger when you're writing libraries that are dependencies for projects you don't control.

If you own all consumers of your code, and it's all part of the same project, then you can safely refactor from field access to getters and setters if and when you need to add extra semantics. If you own the consumers but they're not all part of the same project, you can refactor but it will take longer and be a multi-step exercise.

If you don't own the consumers, then you need to break compatibility, which means major version bumps, which will leave some downstream consumers on older versions, and will probably increase version divergence in your userbase, fragmenting the ecosystem and increasing your support load.

This is the first time I've ever heard someone suggest that easy access to guns makes rape more difficult.
I see -- in fact didn't even know about the AGPL -- confused it with LGPL of yore.
That might be a good argument in theory, if it wasn't for the part where US police don't have to protect citizens and all the population that are outside of effective police coverage. It's not the argument gun control campaigners seem to be making right now. They mainly seem to have gone for the approach of supporting police officers standing by and doing nothing as kids are murdered one by one. Given that, I suspect you're going to have a hard time convincing people who don't already agree with you that they should give up their guns and let the police take care of everything.
The author admits you indeed cannot avoid using them sometimes and mentions exactly the validation case as one of the times you end up writing something similar to a setter anyway.

You agree with the author but haven't realized it, I think.
I suppose it's more a matter of customer perception than anything else, because a small chip on the corner of the package has absolutely no effect on the operation of the much smaller silicon die in the middle; and if it's assembled into a product, the end-user is none the wiser.

That test mostly isn't testing sensitivity, it's testing field of view which is an indicator of some potential eye health issues. It might end up testing sensitivity incidentally but that's not the purpose.
I believe this is usually called the "Please think of the children" argument (or women in this case).

I imagine the person you are replying to is not a closet rape supporter, but they likely think that allowing every adult member of a population to arm themselves is not the ideal solution. I imagine you disagree with that view, but the way you have expressed yourself is the start of an emotional flame-war, not a discussion.

Pesticides are a big problem, but is more complex than that. The real conservation of migrating species is a tricky problem. You can do your best effort to save birds in France or Germany just to provide hunters in Malta or Lebanon with plenty of birds (Is estimated than 2.6 millions of migrating birds including many european protected species are killed each year just in Lebanon for example). Is the drama with the vanishing european turtle dove and shrikes for example.

Very early adopter of the service here... But simply tired of some things related to it:

— Chrome extension consistently failing to perform as it should

— Too much downtime, too many performance issues

— Pretty much no new features... ever

I've emailed Maciej about turning this into a subscription business (to support development, vs one lifetime payment) but he doesn't seem interested.

I would love another, more expensive but better and more reliable service for saving my precious bookmarks.

This is really my extended brain and I go back to stuff I save multiple times every single day... I want it to be great!

Does anyone have suggestions, please? Thanks!
Super tiny font, and immune to zooming (in Chrome and Firefox at least) - I'll pass.
When I'm hiring, I don't care about gaps - provided you've done something productive with yourself. Unexplained gaps (or just stating "sabbatical" / "unemployed") are a red flag.

List it like a job, what you've done and achieved. How does that break make you different to the others?

All else being equal, I'd hire the one who's took a break from their environment, learned new cultures, and made the most of live.

In part because Paris apartments are minuscule. A 2-br in Paris can be smaller than an already-small (by American standards) NYC studio.

Think bedrooms large enough to fit only a bed in a corner and a foot of space between the bed and one wall to allow access to it. Or a kitchen measuring 4x5 feet including appliances.

Most Americans aren't willing to accept those living conditions.

This is absolutely a free speech issue. Not in the sense that it's protected by law, but the law isn't relevant.

The bill of rights comes from a belief that certain rights are self-evident and inherent to all people. In the modern mindset, we have a broader definition of "people" than the founding fathers (that is, we include people of all genders and races). Included in those rights is freedom of speech. Human rights don't simply disappear because you're communicating on a corporate-owned platform.
> Please weigh your own personal hobby against our society's clear dysfunction when it comes to gun violence.

What do you think about prohibiting drugs and alcohol? Like another commenter was a victim of gun violence in his family, I'm a victim of alcohol abuse in mine. Yet, many people enjoy these substances recreationally without problem.

It's hard to weigh a purely "for fun" activity against something with dire consequences. It feels selfish to say, "my hobby is more important than your life" but that's ultimately what the 21st amendment repealing Prohibition said. And it's not an entirely unfair argument when the people safely enjoying the activity are in the tens or hundreds of millions, and the ones harmed by it are a tiny fraction.

I like guns. I don't love them. But it's a fun activity like darts, but with "cooler" machines. I could be persuaded that my hobby is net-negative for society, but it's hard to give up a clearly safe, fun, activity because of an abstract notion that somewhere else in this country of 100s of millions of people, someone is using it for evil, especially when it's fairly rare.

And liberals aren't totally blameless when it comes to the "coolness" factor of guns, either, if you look at essentially any modern movie or TV show, in which they're fairly well glorified. If the solution is to make people not want to have this hobby - and I think that's probably best bang-for-your-buck (heh) solution - then maybe Hollywood should self-censor like YouTube here and not have guns in their movies (or blur them out like in Korean dramas).
That is a seriously BS example. If guns had an effect on reducing rape US would be much lower than Australia that has much tighter gun laws[1]. US has all the school shootings that come with gun ownership and none of the supposed benefits.

That is exactly my fear - that people will use this as an opportunity to try to jump in and literally become the next Facebook. Not that I am opposed to a replacement... I even put together a design myself to avoid the problems we've learned in the last 10 years. But I'm not building it -- because unless it is a service that is paid, open-source, and easy enough for Grandma to use, the realities of operating such a beast are going to drive it off-course.
Now Mr. Trump is indirectly bragging about exploitation of Facebook data [1] :

"Remember when they were saying, during the campaign, that Donald Trump is giving great speeches and drawing big crowds, but he is spending much less money and not using social media as well as Crooked Hillary’s large and highly sophisticated staff. Well, not saying that anymore!"

Audiovisual work and creative coding - many improvements on the creative coding environment Shoebot.

Prototypes built included a midi mapper, music visualisers and simple VJ tools, culminating in using them to VJ for a band in Taipei.

Submitted fixes to OpenGL/Shader tutorials as I completed them.
Implemented Vext to make it easier to use graphic and gui packages with virtualenv such as Panda3D, Gtk and Qt, it broke 100 downloads within 3 months of being uploaded to Pypi.

I switched to Firefox recently (with v57 or something) and I'm impressed, it really feels much faster than Chrome.

But they need to get all videos working. It feels to me that it's a 50:50 chance to play a video.

On Android the startup is faster than with Chrome too, but the scrolling feels rather sluggish, so I still prefer Chrome here.
I try to avoid setters whenever possible in favor of constructors taking the dependency as parameter. That way, reasoning about the lifecycle of dependencies is much easier.

Those are indeed workloads, specific for a webserver and even more specific for CF. Many other workloads that we don't care about that Intel can handily win of course.
We don't have use for most Intel extensions, like AVX512 and barely use any AVX2. Intel is the king of HPC and single threaded performance for a few more years.

I totally agree with what you said. I'm really quite sad how late I got into programming (at 14) by basically some random occurrence. Yeah, at the moment I'm ahead of my peers by significant amounts, but I know I could have done\would be doing a lot more, a lot more efficiently if I had had any formal education from the start on related topics, lessons that start with the sentence "Today we're learning how to use Microsoft Word" don't really count.

The inner cam was actually filming in IR.
Uber cars have IR cameras, LIDAR and an also multiple radar sensors.

My guess is that the algorithms have never met a person crossing the street with a bicycle during night time so they just ignored it or considered it to be a glitch.

You can have to approaches regarding labeling driving situations. Either you label with positive tags the situations where the car needs to react. Or you label with positive tags the normal situations when the car does nothing.

Depending on the two approaches you can have a car that kills pedestrians that appear in weird circumstances. I also bet a pedestrian that ducks in the middle of a lane would 100% be killed by a car. Or two people having sex while standing in the middle of a lane.

The other situation you have cars avoiding invisible obstacles that may appear due to some aberrations from sensors (which are far from perfect).
