I pretty much write, compile & run a large chunk of my C, C++, Python and other code in FAR every day.

I use it because I can do so many things in FAR so much faster than any other alternative (or my colleagues). I can view/navigate file/folder structure. View/Edit/Copy/Move/Archive files. And search recursively. Either by file name/extension or in contents. Also run command-line stuff (make, python, git). Inspect output from commands, quickly select text - copy&paste between contents of file, command-line and output of command. And much more. All that with just a few of keyboard shortcuts. No mouse.

And when I'm showing/explaining something to my colleague, I often hear "wait, what just happened?" or "how did you do that so fast?"

I implemented RSS on FWD:Everyone this past week (not deployed yet). It was super easy, didn't take more than a couple hours, and only required two or three extra lines of code for each endpoint.

I have no idea how much use it will get, but seemed like an important thing to.
> In order to squeeze as much information as possible into the 512 bytes...

I appreciate that this is a work in progress but this section is misleading. As all too briefly mentioned elsewhere on the page, EDNS allows extending this. In practice most of the resolvers I connect to do support EDNS and a buffer of 4096. So yes 512 may be needed as a fallback (depending on what you're doing) but you'll almost certainly have more room to breathe than that. IPv6 and DNSSEC practically make the extra space a necessity.

> DNS names can (and often MUST) be compressed.

I don't think I've ever seen label compression in actual use? RFC 6891 (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6891) seems to suggest they're obsolete.

That critique aside, it seems like this will become a good tutorial. And if you're looking for a reference I'd point to the IANA's page on DNS parameters (https://www.iana.org/assignments/dns-parameters/dns-paramete...) it lists and organises most of the relevant RFCs. RFC 6895 (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6895) is a particularly useful resource for best practices.
Facebook’s downfall as a service won’t be another social service that has the same features but is distributed/blockchain/FOSS/quantum/whatever. Facebook has an enormous amount of resources and talent that will allow them to keep their moat in the social networking space.

No, its downfall will come from a paradigm shift in technology that renders the feed-style social network obsolete. This is how most behemoth companies fall, they don’t get outcompeted at their own game, the game just changes around them. Maybe it’ll be VR, maybe it’ll be a virtual social assistant that has no browsable UI but helps you keep in real-time contact with the people you care about, maybe it’ll be a new kind of device or screen or wearable that completely changes the game. But it won’t be another social networking service.

For completeness remember Google's 8.8.4.4

But I think some things are justifiable by that argument. A great example of that is the public disclosure of software vulnerabilities. If you’re not malicious, and you find a bad bug, chances are a malicious actor will eventually find the bug too.
I'd expect Monte Carlo methods to be used in a number of cases that have deterministic time envelopes for evaluation. Randomized selection and evaluation can be incredibly effective. They also resist degenerate structured input vulnerabilities.

I'm not in the automotive space, but I'd be surprised if there were a viable self-driving car team not using Monte Carlo methods somewhere in the vehicle stack.
With BTC you can have multi input multi output transactions: in the same tx you can spend 2 legit BTCs and 2 stolen BTCs and send those to 8 addresses, each getting 0.5 BTCs.

Which of those resulting addresses contain tainted BTCs and which contain the clean ones?

A transaction such as the above would make it clear that the thief has control over the whole stolen wallet, but that's it. It doesn't mean that the recipient's addresses are thief's addresses, even though they could be. And we can't consider all of the end addresses as tainted, because what happens when the thief sends some of these to the address holding the silk road BTCs confiscated by the feds? Will they arrest themselves?

Perhaps, but I have my doubts. I have stopped recommending 1P to non-technical friends & family because none of them can ever figure out how to use it (or remember for long enough to continue doing so). I have persuaded many to try it over the years, but literally only one of them has continued with it. That happened to be my mother (because I'm in frequent contact so can help her when she gets stuck). Everything I've witnessed leads me to believe 1P is primarily a tool for the tech savvy.

"Well initially preferring to use a homegrown solution (like a programming language) isn’t necessarily a sign of zealotry. Dogfooding is good :)"

Sure it's not necessarily.

Building on top of something that is yours, simply because it is yours, is in fact a form of zealotry.

It is fairly unrelated (IMHO) to building on top of something that is yours so you can make sure you experience what your customers will experience.

IE Building your own ML on top of your Java thing because you want your customers to build ML on top of your Java thing would make sense. Building your own ML on top of your Java thing just because it's yours does not by itself make sense.
(IE it has to provide some particular value over not building it yourself, etc, otherwise it's pretty clear zealotry)

> We’ve been screwing with elections South of our border for generations now we’ve de facto privatized it!

I think it's very interesting to think of Facebook in that context. However, it was privatized long ago. Companies have been buying political influence for a long time, and when that hasn't worked, U.S. security forces sometimes have been deployed. I don't know about private security forces, but I'd be surprised if that didn't play some part.

Facebook effectively plays the role of the private security agency; they provide an election manipulation service that others can utilize. It's different because those private armies exist solely for that purpose, but let's not pretend that Facebook learned about all these things in the last month - they knew what was going on better than anyone.

Mozilla also uses this k-anonymity in their implementation of Google Safe Browsing. (As they need to ask Google's server, if the webpage you're visiting or the file you're downloading is safe, without telling Google the webpage/file that you are visiting/downloading.)

Pretty good documentation on that: https://feeding.cloud.geek.nz/posts/how-safe-browsing-works-...

Another idea here, stolen from Mozilla's implementation, would be to add in a few noise entries when making a request.

So, if the user types in their password and the hash evaluates to "2e78f...", you would send off the request for that range and also send off requests for a handful of random, other ranges.

In effect, this isn't particularly different from using less symbols to denote the range, e.g. asking for "2e78" instead of "2e78f". But that gives you 16 times as many results, whereas with noise entries, you can fine-tune it to give you for example only 5 times as many results (with 4 noise entries, that is).
I've read the README and I still have no clue what exactly this library is supposed to "evaluate".

I meant the possible target audience. While their initial goal was to attract C++ engineers, eventually they attracted (some) python or node.js devs.
We are a team who have all worked together in various companies over the years. We originally built the seeds of this idea whilst at Lockheed - we tried to spin out and do it in 2007, but couldn't get money. Then a problem was presented to me two months ago, and I said "hey, we've built that before." and so over the last month - we built out the MVP, and gave an 8 minute demo - and we have serious people who want it. (we applied to YC, will see - but I am just not used to this level of excitement) -- we only showed our MVP, as we just wanted validation from the people who posed the problem to us to ensure we were doing what they wanted and we were going in the right direction... we didn't expect this.

If you already use an email client and have a place to run cron jobs, I highly recommend a feed->email converter. No need for a separate RSS reader, and you get cross-device syncing for free. Options include feed2email[1], feed2imap[2], and my own feedmail[3] (just "released", but I've been using it for years). I prefer clients like the latter two that can upload via IMAP, since that gives better control than sending via SMTP.

In most cases smaller websites are regional and can be better served without CloudFlare introducing proxy delays, slower speeds. The ease of adding ssl is offsetted by the privacy hole that forwarding everything to cloudflaire creates.
Note: Both left lanes are HOV lanes. #1 leads onto Hwy 85, #2 onto Hwy 101. Do they say which lane he was in before entering the median?

Just curious why autopilot would be in lane #1 if he intended to stay on Hwy 101. Or vice versa. Maybe it couldn't make a safe lane change sooner? (Pure speculation)

They didn't even control for wealth. People that can afford a Tesla and the auto pilot add on are much less likely to be driving on drugs, alcohol, etc. It doesn't say anything about the statistics when auto-pilot is engaged, it just says cars with auto pilot. And it doesn't give the statistics for Teslas without auto-pilot (Teslas have other safety factors that might mean auto-pilot isn't responsible for the mortality reduction, etc.)

I mean, if Tesla is comparing their luxury car's death rates to motorcycles, which have 10x-50x the fatality rate of passenger cars, then, yes, it's dangerous.

Remember, there are several very normal cars models that have had ZERO deaths: https://www.nbcnews.com/business/autos/record-9-models-have-...

It's meant to help evaluate the performance of a TensorFlow model after training. In particular, you can define a series of metrics to measure, and different subsets of the data to evaluate on. And it can scale up to evaluate on large datasets since it uses Apache Beam for distributed data processing.

Thanks for explaining so much about the process -- I didn't mean that the code was bad, just that there was an unexpected amount of growth.

But hearing what was being dealt with (those blog posts) definitely clears things up for me -- Also as the other commenter mentioned, react is aiming for so much more than the DOM (react native was a visionary/revolutionary achievement IMO, not even trying to blow smoke, I think at this point that's pretty much a fact) it makes sense why and how react has grown the way it has.

I have a simpler thesis. Is it possible that Thiel isn't particularly brilliant about politics? I mean I realize that he's rich and therefore he has to be smart about everything, but... maybe this isn't his field?

It could be that, like many right-wingers or libertarians, he saw in Trump an opportunity to break with the status quo and had the vague impression he'd get the things he wanted, or could manipulate Trump in the right direction.

But has Thiel personally profited in any way from this? He's reviled in Silicon Valley, and the Trump association hasn't obviously brought him anything new.

Have Thiel's ideological priorities been satisfied? He's known for being a hard libertarian, and he supported a man who was openly nativist and who has implemented tariffs. Failure on that score.

Thiel seems like a fairly callous person when it comes to race (as a student, he backed apartheid[1]). Trump may be more aligned with him there.

Doesn't seem like a great idea.

It would probably fall under the usual ~29/30 chance you wind up in the hospital with more problems instead of succeeding, and with all those lithium batteries you'd have a good chance of going out burning which I think most people would prefer to avoid.

At that point, why not just drive off a cliff or find a tall building?
Yeah, this was unfortunately worded. There are subproblems for which MC/randomized methods fit well, but in general those circumstances are well understood.
The major feature here would be deduplication, in my opinion. That would be hard to do though as it would have to parse the feed contents (which vary from links to articles to full blow articles sometimes) and use some kind of percentage to determine whether or not it's a dupe? Curious if there is a smarter solution to that feature possibility.

Certainly CalTrans is responsible for not replacing the barrier. Expect a lawsuit/settlement. Tesla will be found liable too, that’ll be a jury trial civil suit. Why? Despite reporting that AP failed at that interchange and despite still using it, drivers and juries expect safety features to work as advertised.
