We have an entire working group dedicated to looking at the end-to-end web story this year, both backend and front end. Things are still a bit rough, but coming along nicely. The next release of Rust includes a major language feature that’s helpful when writing asynchronous code (impl Trait), for example.
This is about Leap Motion and not Magic Leap though.

It can be shared, and is currently being shared -- it's in a museum.
It's pretty sexist to suggest that women can't handle the same gender-neutral barriers as men. Sure, the extent of undergraduate education is excessive, but that's because it's excessive for everyone, not because women are intellectually/professionally weak and need extra time to "feel comfortable."
I went to their Twitter and looked for the picture. I assume this is it. I don't see anything else: https://pbs.twimg.com/card_img/983333636975054848/siPS_w5d?f...
It’s not really as bad as that. Practically, the EU lawyers are not going to prosecute some dumbass no-revenue “Tinder for cocktails” or similar. They are out for money and only going after the guys who are big enough to pay but haven’t complied yet.
I would argue that's a reasonable hit for the gains. I would never add a tech debit ticket to change just to reclaim disk / memory, that's an anti pattern.

Memory and disk space is cheap.

Also UUIDs are just 128bit integers internally. My example clearly points out that most modern databases have a native uuid type (and if not use use a 128 bit integer).

Using a char type to store UUIDs is very wasteful and no wonder your indexes are so huge.

The tech debt ticket you really have is to convert type of uuid column from char/blob to native.

Note also that if you need to expose your data, you can either expose the auto incrementing primary key (which leaks data, in that other people can work out growth rates of various models, like how England worked out how many German tanks were being built based on a auto incrementing serial number), or you create a another column (as someone else suggested) which is a uuid. Which you would need to index anyway.

If index size is an issue then you can just integers which are randomly generated. You can calculate your collision chance based on how large your integer is and how often you create. If you happen to pick 128bit integers, congratulations, you're using UUIDs.
No worries, we are all still new in this field.
It is another approach but I think it would hurt smaller investors and still enable people will large sums to do arbitrage.

Let's say the fee is 10$, if someone wanted to invest only 100$ they might think twice about it. While if the price of the fund is 1% too cheap, a big fish could simply buy shares for 100.000$ and make 990$ profit by just buying them.
Lots of data at hand means also one can more easily filter out false positives. 3 people in the same coffee shop can be totally strangers to each other, but if their phones start connecting to the same towers in different places all far away the coffee shop at the same times, one could conclude they're likely related someway.
Or do the contrary of what you'd do for sticky rice: start cooking in boiling water and once the water is full of starch, replace the water.
England is only approximately 400x300 miles. That's tiny. I'm not really surprised mail could get anywhere in the same day.
Slack uses Markdown, yes, but supporting everything under the sun that Slack does (especially as they add new things) is just much easier inside a Webview.

The job of programming isn't to reinvent the wheel everywhere, it's just to deliver a product that doesn't suck - with native code, you're implementing a native solution for each feature Slack has or adds. Slack's content is web content.

You're really arguing that an insane amount of extra engineering time should be spent to conserve, at best, an extra 40-50MB of RAM... and this is disregarding how modern RAM works anyway.
Yes, parsing generated source code might be a problem, and yes, C++ preprocessing adds a lot as well. But even 100,000 lines of 80 characters whould still be (a little less than) 8 Mbyte. I did not design my interpretting parser with maximum performance as a goal, but just to have a parser that is easy to use and allows for much flexibility with respect to the grammar specification. I feel that it is a good parser for domain specific languages.

This seems like something that can be corrected via normalization, at the per-user level. Find the average rating (and variation) for each individual user. Use these 2 metrics, in order to transform all user-supplied-ratings into normalized-ratings. For example, if someone always gives a 5 rating, then treat all their 5 ratings as 3s, and any sub-5 ratings as 1s. Conversely, if someone mostly gives 2s, then any of their 3s/4s should be treated as 5s.

Perhaps we should start a rival service.

It gives you urls like https://upstandingcitizenry.com/peace-and-love-and-ponies except instead of redirecting you to a safe URL, it drive-by downloads some malware, fills your screen with porn popups, and uses your CPU for monero mining.

Maybe that would spread your message better?

You obviously don't get the joke. The joke is that it looks shady but is actually perfectly fine. If every URL tells you "don't click on things that look shady", then the joke is gone.

There is obviously a sliding scale, but the 25-ish age range is more physical where your prefrontal cortex is still developing, while later stages are more experience based maturity.

"Neuroscience has shown that a young person's cognitive development continues into this later stage and that their emotional maturity, self-image and judgement will be affected until the prefrontal cortex of the brain has fully developed.

Alongside brain development, hormonal activity is also continuing well into the early twenties says Antrobus.

"A number of children and young people I encounter between the age of 16 and 18, the flurry of hormonal activity in them is so great that to imagine that's going to settle down by the time they get to 18 really is a misconception," says Antrobus."
> Presumably, those emphasizing time with their children would tend to also have children rather early, possibly before they are 25.

What I was suggesting is that they are choosing to have children earlier so that they have older children when it is time to start focusing on a career.

Former chef turned tech dork here: Anyone who says "I want to own my own restaurant, it sounds like fun!" will immediately be destroyed. People who don't burn out of the restaurant industry (or get stuck in rehab/o.d.) typically love their craft and work like lunatics. It makes the tech sector work/life balance look like paradise. You stay in the field because you enjoy the lifestyle and get off on the adrenaline rush.

Restaurants don't pay anything because the learning curve is low enough that you can just train line cooks on the job. And chefs tend to just be smart dudes who could deal with lifestyle long enough to get into manager roles. Most normal, sane people don't work as cooks because they wouldn't be willing to put up with the physical/mental stress for so little pay. It's a refuge of maniacs and the desperate.

I don't fully understand what you mean. Do you want Europe to be a lawless continent? Or do you not want a private, multi-national company to voluntarily apply a data protection framework uniformly to all of its users simply because the EU requires them to apply it to EU residents?

Both of these things are out of scope for you, no? I suppose you could vote with your shares if you own stock in Facebook...

I installed it, it seemed a lot more "performant" than Slack's app on OS X. The Wey app crashed within 5 minutes though. :(

I noted that Wey only gives links to pictures with no previews. The linking out is fine but I think inline previews would be a nice addition down the road.

There is another technique I have seen of breaking the egg on to a cling film pouch, and then securing it, and poaching the pouch in water.
Nothing wrong with taking inspiration from other country laws. My original point is that GDPR is fundamently wrong. It’s infringing with freedom of speech by making new social network harder to create for dubious privacy gains. If you think FB is wrong, the best way to take it down is to replace it, not try to make it compliant.
>Everyone consumes. It's the basis of the economy.

Yes that's my point. You can't just say production is a better use of resources than consumption, because people need to consume.

The real question is what's the best trade-off between expanding productive capacity, and producing consumer goods? Given that we seem to have vast productive capacity, and yet many people in the world seem to still live in poverty, perhaps we're not making the best trade-offs there?
Yeah. The article kind of bothered me by assuming that its reader is trying to maximize profit, rather than maximize happiness with a sustainable income.

It happens to me quite often when working with network shares. Never happened on local disks, though.
IANAL, but crypto-shredding seems to be a viable way to meet GDPR deletion requirements, making it possible to implement compliant blockchains. Of course you'd have to make the nodes comply, but that has nothing to do with blockchains.

But I still don't see the connection with the first amendment.
Telegram is native code (Swift/etc), not Qt* - at least, depending on which version you're using, and it largely eschews webviews short of one or two places as far as I know.

I think so too. It certainly makes one question what kinds of app I would want to build.

I am of a similar opinion, however I find myself using OnShape more and more for simple projects just because Fusion360 isn't available on Linux and I don't want to reboot just to design something.

In my case, FreeCAD just has to be better than OnShape, not Fusion, to get me to use it for 90% of my designs.
Is organic chicken also 1.8-to-1?
can social media kill you though? I mean all this talk of regulating social networks is under the assumption that it's something you need to have. I would argue that safe shelter is a true human need, but posting cat gifs or pictures of drunken escapades or political musings does not seem equally comparable and thus I do not see how regulation does anything other than hamper competition.
The more I read people against GDPR the more I get the feeling they're the same kind of people behind mail based scams.

> thought NTFS was declared to be relatively immune from fragmentation problems

The operative word there there is relatively. In terms of main file content storage it did (and still does) a very good job, especially relative to FAT's naive first-available-block allocation strategy, until the volume gets near-full. How much is "near full" very much depends on your local use cases (rules of thumb like "the larger of 10% or 20Gb" are banded about, but they are just myth-like guesswork at an old-wive's-tale level IMO as they are usually traceable back to times when volumes were much smaller and common data patterns vastly different).

Once volumes are near-full not much helps - this is still true for modern variants of NTFS, ext, and any other filesystem (I'm not counting filesystems with "active defragmentation" as that is essentially a filesystem plus a tool). Some have tweaks that help reduce the effects (NTFS being able to store small files in directory blocks directly for instance) but it is not practical to completely rid yourself of them especially in pathological cases. Furthermore once a file is fragmented it will stay that way until removed & replaced or acted upon by a defragment process on the filesystem, and deleting fragmented files may leave the free space around them a mess of small blocks so delete & reallocate may not help on a near-full filesystem.

Any filesystem that claims to be fragmentation free without a list of caveats attached to that claim is snake-oil.
Looks like Applebee's is actually starting to cook items. I guess public pressure has changed their ways. Good for them. They absolutely were the king of microwaved food in chain sit downs for decades.

Appetizers are all frozen and pre-packaged they just deep fried at almost all chains.

Heck I worked at Ethan Allen Inn in Danbury CT a LONG time ago and all the meals were frozen and prepared in France and shipped over. Easily $75 to $125 per person in the 90s.

The complaint that prioritization is needed is bullshit. You can already achieve that through multiple RSS feeds once your feed has become too big for users to follow. You can even do categorization, which is what is really wanted/needed here.

More importantly, this is already solved by RSS readers. All the online RSS services I've tried have algorithmic feed ordering options for those who want it. This means that users who want algorithmic sorting/filtering can not only get it but also have their choice of providers.

More importantly, people like me who prefer to manually prune their sources and only subscribe to things they're actually interested in seeing can still do so. You can get a quick overview of what's trending and I can do a deep dive into what I like. Everyone wins.

There's twitter-python, pytesla, DisneyDisp, github.com/scottjbarr/nasdaq, pyfacebook, etc etc. It seems to be accepted practice to use trademarks in names for projects connecting or related to them. But a statement emphasising the unoffical nature would probably be a good idea just in case.
Most of the time I read forums, it's because I want to get an overview over the latest discussion on a topic (most recently BBQ grills). Whenever I'm redirected to forums via a search engine, it's mostly "this has been asked before, use the search", rants, and other low quality content.

The incentives in the SO community lead to pretty good quality overall, compared to forums. Answers are regularly updated, even years afterwards. I've never seen that in forums.
> Are you making the claim that an extended education has no impact on performance?

Yes. E.g. in the U.K., you can start practicing law around age 21. In the U.S., typically it's 25 if you go straight through. Somehow the U.K. still manages to be a center of commerce and finance.
I can see what's wrong with the things you're talking about, except for one — the space below the BabelJS title. For me, it creates a clear separation between it and what is below, which I think makes sense. What am I not getting?

If it's not an itemized receipt its not going to be accepted for an expense report unless the charge is very, very small. (I think my company is less than $25 doesn't require a receipt) I'm not going to screw around with being unable to prove my business expenses and being potentially liable for paying them personally.

Even if they were itemized, I question if my company would accept it over the "official" receipt. Anyway, in this case you are just talking about moving to digital receipts, which is surely convenient, but its not "go[ing] the way of the dodo bird," it's "going digital."

The current failure rate of mobile payments is currently much too high for me, personally, to move them them. I love the idea in theory but currently the execution is poor. Its just embarrassing for me to be standing there fiddling around with my phone for 60 seconds so its not even worth attempting when I know my credit card will always work.
Wow that's impressive. But I would imagine WhatsApp/Facebook can just change their protocol at any time since it is easy to redeploy a new version of the WhatsApp Web client, thus breaking any 3p clients built on the original protocol. That would require yet another reverse engineering effort that can take a while. And by the time its reverse engineered again, they can yet again change the protocol. So the only reliable way to create 3p clients would be if WhatsApp itself publicly publishes its protocol.
i'd be ok with medical/law training to start as early as 16 (for those who can finish high school early).

for med school, you could still have 5 years of academic training (as with the Indian model) and then do 4 years of apprenticeship (internship /residency) and be a fully qualifed doctor by 25.

for law school, 4 years of academic training and 3 years of apprenticeship and be a fully qualified lawyer by 23.

these are professional trades, so the apprenticeship piece is a crucial transition period to learn from those who came before you.
> Presumably, those emphasizing time with their children would tend to also have children rather early, possibly before they are 25.

Who presumes that? I would presume people who are looking to start a family would want a solid foundation to start from. That means holding off on having kids until you've gotten some sort of stability. Most people in their early 20s don't have any sort of stability.

It depends on what part of the GDPR you're against. I'm generally in favor of a lot of the GDPR's goals, but the execution is pretty clumsy and a few of the provisions are at best useless and impose unnecessary costs.
