I always feel like the author is my buddy talking to me. Sometime i have a question, then read one. There is it, the answer.

And this applies to the vue API as well. The guy just crafted in so many little things to make real life easiser. The event.once helper for example. Simple, elegant, useful.
Arguably no, but lets see if Musks plans are more than PR speak to build up hype. Right now, Google is way ahead.

I use EasyList Annoyances with my adblocker, it hides all cookies/GDPR popups. If the website respects GDPR and waits for my click on the "Accept" button, I'll never see it and tracking shouldn't be enabled (many websites still don't respect that basic concept nonetheless)
It scaled well too. Redis was a small tool. It's not so small anymore, but the doc is still top notch.
We fell into same pattern. I do not know why MongoDB was used for the project I am currently maintaining, but to me it seems that it is a bad idea to use a relation-less database for inherently related data.

I think that the original thinking was along the lines "well, we do not know what structure the data will have yet"
I just wish IPV6 was mostly about adding more bits to the addresses instead of the clusterfuck that they introduced.
Smoke less is good advice. But also, if you’re prone to panic attacks, try giving yourself one intentionally (when you’re sober) when you feel you’re in a good environment. Learning to mentally overcome panic attacks is probably one of my greatest accomplishments in life. Now when I feel one onsetting, I can completely come down from it. The key is in remembering two things: you’re actually going to be fine, and you’re in control if you believe you’re in control.
Turbo Pascal 5.5 (the first version implementing Object Pascal and thus could be compared to C++ as opposed to C) was only on DOS indeed, but practically everyone was there and Turbo Pascal for Windows was released in 1991 just when Windows was taking off. But ignoring Turbo Pascal, Object Pascal was already implemented in Macintosh by both Apple (who got Niklaus Wirth to assist in designing the object oriented extensions) and others (most notably Think Pascal).

Of course these weren't standardized and had slight differences in their syntax, but at the time C++ wasn't standardized either and - again - not all compilers were compatible.

I think the main reason that C++ got its hold was that it was compatible with C which itself got its hold over other similar languages because the popular OSes of the time used it and provided headers in C, all documentation was about the C interface and most third party stuff hooked up with C. Borland initially tried to Pascal-ize the C bits of Windows (f.e. they converted the function declarations from C to Pascal in the Windows SDK docs they distributed up until and including Delphi 1) but eventually gave up (Delphi 2's Windows API docs use C syntax).

Of course that was up to early-90s. After that it was mainly Borland who used Pascal and they succumbed to Enterprise Envy, constantly and it wouldn't be until Free Pascal released version 1.0 years later (in 2000) that a competent 3rd party implementation would exist - and even that was mostly ignored until people started noticing Lazarus in very recent years. Of course now is too late to change the tide as no matter what a Pascal compiler may provide, most people have a ton of preconceived notions about the language.
I feel it enhances my creativity, makes me appreciate the world around me more, makes music and food more enjoyable, makes movies more interesting, makes me more interested in doing something artistic or musical and be more involved in doing those things when I do them. Sex can also be amazing on it.

When I've used it, I've also confronted things, thought about things, and remembered things I would have avoided in ordinary life. So I've really felt it to be therapeutic, especially at stronger doses, and especially when ingested rather than smoked. A lot of people don't realize this, but ingestion of larger doses can often have a psychedelic-like effect (perhaps not so much with the visuals, but emotionally and cognitively, there are some similarities).

That said, I don't like to do it a lot (as I don't want to get addicted), I tend to prefer small doses rather than getting stoned out of my gourd, and I try do do it only with positive, constructive intention rather than just to have fun or get blitzed for no reason other than boredom. I generally prefer to do something creative on it, or maybe go to a museum where it enhances my appreciation of what I see and learn, and gives me a much greater feeling of immersion.
It's not less volume though, it's no volume. No-one can write authentically as black and white, straight and gay, cis and trans, but we need books that incorporate all of those and more. Conceivably collaborative novels could be an answer, but I haven't seen them be very successful either.
Watermarking Relational Databases Research
You're missing two large factors:

* Tokyo is in a very active earthquake zone. Building earthquake-proof supertalls is even more expensive than usual, and not practical in the large portions of the city built on reclaimed land.

* Sunshine laws make it very difficult to build tall buildings even when zoning regulations otherwise allow it. This is why you often see weirdly shaped (triangular etc) buildings in improbable places.

Shinkansen commuting is also a fairly marginal phenomenon, the cost is prohibitive and I recall reading that the number of active Shinkansen commuter passes is measured in the thousands (for a megalopolis of 30 million plus).
Oh how interesting. Just went on lobste.rs and at the bottom they have the moderation log made public. Really cool. I guess it's unusual because moderators don't like accountability.

Why Asteroids Become Big Hot Spots
> namely: that it must be with source code

GPL does not say that. What it does say is that you must provide the source upon request.

> The fact that you cannot redistribute GPL software without source (whether bundled with other software or otherwise) is a restriction on whether/how you can redistribute GPL software, hence it goes against the "shall not restrict" requirement. And there's no exception carved out for "restrictions that require source code to be included".

So all of what you said there is simply incorrect, because like I said, you absolutely can distribute GPL software without including the source code alongside it. And that is what is done by everyone 99% of the time.

You only need to provide the source upon request to the people that ask you for it.

I encourage you to take the time to read the GPL FAQ. Even though GPL is not my preferred license I think it is important to have a good understanding of it. https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.en.html
What could they have done better?
Yes I understand the situations are vastly different but that is not guaranteed in the future. The US is most definitely showing signs of decay and decline. Many more economically challenged leaders like Trump in charge and the situation could change beyond recognition. It only took one decision to destroy farming in Zimbabwe.

You are right. The average entrepreneur could be 16 but the average successful will be around 40. I did the same mistake as you, adding as many features as possible so that users can use whatever they like. Now I think of it like adding as many wheels as possible to a car so that users can use whatever wheels they like.

Keep things as simple and single functionality as possible. If you can't explain your startup in one sentence, it's doing too much
A more comfortable way to achieve this is just set the 3D mode to the wrong setting (eg. R|L side-by-side instead of L|R, or under/over instead of over/under). Agreed that it's a really weird feeling, almost like having something brushing your face.

(Also, it makes me sad that 3D is no longer a feature of new TVs. I guess I'm just going to have to hold onto the one we've got - I like watching 3D movies even if no-one else in the house does!)
There are definitely lot of policy, infrastructure, and cultural differences in play as well, but this is a huge factor the author missed.

Japan didn't allow any tall buildings until 1963, so the development of tall urban centers came very late, and as others have mentioned, followed patterns of existing rail infrastructure.
It's hard for me not to use Google's products because they're good, it's hard for me not to use Facebook's because they managed to lock me in using social pressure.
Because satellite internet already exists and apparently didn't fully solve the problem.

Better satellite internet would help. But the best way to do that is to fly the satellites lower, which means you need a lot more of them. Unless you happen to own the cheapest space launch service on the market that's hard to do, so only Elon Musk is really pursuing that path.

Aircraft on the other hand are kind of like really close satellites that are cheap to refuel. Satellites (that aren't geostationary) are all or nothing: you either cover the entire globe or it isn't very useful. Other aircraft are easy to keep over one select area

Swift and JavaScript comparison snippets(1) – The Basics
As a native to south-western australia, this all reads pretty accurate. The animal certainly is alive and strong in hearts and minds, if not real life. There's all the usual local country-town big-creature legends, and a bit of 50-year-old evidence helps as well.

The idea of 'monsters' of all kinds have always fascinated me. As the article mentions, it's only in the extremely recent past (last couple of hundred years) that extinction was recognised as even something that was possible.

We normally think of extinct megafauna as something that existed in prehistoric times - literally, before we invented writing, but the word here is often by the layman used to mean "before we invented conscious thought". Many Aboriginal Dreamtime stories (so, within the last 80k years) are thought to involve now-extinct megafauna, other large creatures are known to have gone extinct only in the last 2-3000 years, untold small species have disappeared in the last ~200 years... it's hardly surprising that humans are such a superstitious bunch, considering we're only ~8 generations away from huddling in a village, frightened of the wolves and anything else that goes bump in the night.

...we don't say that. I don't think even Tasmanians say that. They're too busy trying to convince everyone not avoid the place so they can enjoy it.

To your edit:

> So all of what you said there is simply incorrect, because like I said, you absolutely can distribute GPL software without including the source code alongside it. And that is what is done by everyone 99% of the time. You only need to provide the source upon request to the people that ask you for it.

No, it makes no difference at all. You cannot redistribute the software unless you are willing and able to redistribute the source code as well. That is very clearly a restriction on your redistribution of the software. The fact that we happen to be talking about the software's own source code makes no difference as to whether it's a restriction or not. It'd be a restriction whether we're talking about "source code", or "$100,000", or anything else. The simple fact that you have to be willing and able to provide {something} before you can redistribute the software is obviously a restriction on your redistribution of the software.
What type of mix even is that?
The algorithm is an interesting distinction to make.

I could argue that any machine learning algorithm is simply making probabilistic calculations based on input data in order to reach some kind of singular output. In this view (which I wouldn't discount), the machine learning algorithm is little more than a very advanced function. In my view, a function is not something I would consider a "subject" not would I consider it to have any ability to "perceive" an illusion. There's no sentience.

If we say the complexity of the algorithm is great enough that it can be said to "perceive", I would argue the algorithm does become a "who" instead of a "what". Still, there is a surprising amount of nuance to this concept that makes it very interesting.
You sound like a veteran, so I'm sure you know this and made a typo, but anyway please let me clarify: the 6502 (and Z80, 8080 etc mentioned here) are not microcontrollers. They are microprocessors.

Microcontrollers generally integrate more of the things that the are needed in order to build a computer from a "naked" processor, into the same chip. Modern microcontrollers almost always contain onboard flash memory for code and data storage, as well as SRAM and peripherals.

A 6502 has none of that, and you need many more additional chips on the board to make it into a functional computer.
We don't really know yet. It seems to be connected with the sun and CO2 variation, but it is not clear what drives that variation. Today we drive the variation, and into regions that haven't been seen for a looong time, so things are indeed different.

It's interesting that the collapse of an ice age seems to happen very fast, within a few hundreds of years, so fast changes are definitely possible.

(It's good to research this since an ice age would suck majorly for us too - and we have suppressed the next one by now.)
Bit Off-topic: shouldn't it be FAAMG? Or did we collectively kick Microsoft, the global OS and Office software supplier, out of the cool kids club and replace it with Netflix, a video website?
The short version is: No. Not reasonable.

v6 isn't easier to track. Some of the trackability from v4 remains, some goes away. As an example of the latter, if you go to a café with a wlan and stay for an hour, your laptop may use three different v6 addresses in that time.
the "clusterfuck" the introduced is mostly a nice thing in my opinion.

Things like MTU path-discovery, NDP and SLAAC make a lot of sense and are definitely improvements over the solutions we have in IPv4. Broadcast makes little sense on a layer 3 perspective. The use of link-local and unique-global addresses also makes sense, and having a different address class for multicast makes implementing multicast more convenient.
Thx for the advice, but I haven’t smoke pot since 2012 (was 19 at the time), and I don’t intend to try again.

The first few times I did it back then, everything was cool, but then something clicked in my brain that permanently associated pot with extreme anxiety.

On one hand I’m kinda thankful that this saved me from turning into a lazy pothead in my teenage years, like some of my friends did, on the other hand it sucked being the weird guy who always passes up the spliff without takin a hit. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Speed of light affects latency, not throughput. TCP works bad with large delays, that's why it's recommended to use several TCP connections to saturate the link.
The warning and caveat are the best part for me. The django team understands very well the principle of least surprise, which is why old django installs still work, the ecosystem is very well intagrated and updates are not dreaded. It strikes menthat something new like react is in version 16 (and the doc sucks) while django is much older and only reaching v2, with great docs.
This is what I absolutely hate about VCs. The reasons are garbage and they are actually harming by trying to be polite. There is no such thing as too young or old for startups. Why do they even care if they think your startup is going to make it?

I got turned down by one VC because "they don't invest in India". My startup is registered in Delaware, I pitched him in US and I am not even Indian citizen

This might not be useful to most people, but it’s probably really useful for some people. I’ve been doing a bunch of embedded and embedded-ish development for work and otherwise, and it’s useful to not need a separate keyboard connected to the device just to poke graphical applications now and then.
No, it's not reasonable.

Allocation of IPv4 address by your ISP is not a secure process; if your privacy depends on it your privacy is already compromised. And address allocation policy is independent of which protocol you're using anyway.
Blatantly ripping this off from Stratechery, but DOS was why Mac lost in the 80s and the end of the day a GUI OS is just a feature. Apple had a clearly superior UI, but the distribution and adoption of DOS allowed windows to take it by storm.

I just checked, and apparently on mobile I use 'AdGuard Annoyances filter' and not 'Fanboy's Annoyance List' like on desktop. The former is a fork of the latter by Adguard, so I think it's about the same thing. EasyList's one works perfectly on desktop.
>> He was found guilty of the second charge; but on the first, he received the peculiarly Scottish verdict of “not proven.”

This is an interesting alternative to the binary guilty/not guilty verdict. Notably, Senator Arlen Specter wanted to vote "not proven" on Bill Clinton's impeachment:

"Juries in criminal cases under the laws of Scotland have three possible verdicts: guilty, not guilty, not proven. Given the option in this trial, I suspect that many Senators would choose 'not proven' instead of 'not guilty'. That is my verdict: not proven. The President has dodged perjury by calculated evasion and poor interrogation. Obstruction of justice fails by gaps in the proofs."

Is it almost zero?
Imo there are more pertinent problems than delay. When the delays are sufficiently small, say < 10mSec between neural signal and initiation of movement of the robot, which is already possible to achieve now, you get something which is really usable already and feels close enough to actually making a decision and moving your own hand for instance.

On the other hand there's longevity of electrodes, making hardware smaller etc. And then, probably biggest thing for now, the software side: developing (possibly self-learning) accurate algorithms for decoding of the signals (both single-neuron spikes + low frequency spectrum of the surrounding area) is just hard. Also because a lot of things about the brain are in essence still rather unknown it's sometimes a bit of programming in the dark.
You don't follow me. It would be super easy for ms and apple to adopt a better lowest comon denominator.
Are they that unlikely? My IPv4 is stable for months/years, despite being "dynamic". I don't even run a dynamic DNS client, since it's so rare that it actually changes.

Sometimes, sometimes.

Most ISPs give you a new prefix occasionally, such as every night. They don't need to, but so many do it anyway that a tracker cannot assume that 2001:a61:2574:a00/64 is the same customer as yesterday. It may be the same, usually isn't, so tracking is very imprecise.

Why Philosophers Should Care About Computational Complexity by Scott Aaronson [pdf]
http://ravichugh.github.io/sketch-n-sketch/
I live in a 3-storey apartment building, and one of my neighbours downstairs actually has this. It's actually a bit of a sneaky marketing "hack" by the architects.

When the building was being designed a couple of years ago, they put a light tunnel in place running down the vertical length of one side of the building. This took light from the penthouse's roof and channeled it down to the ground floor.

By doing this, the architects could turn a 2-bedroom apartment into a 3-bedroom one. By law (at least in the UK), you cannot market a room as a bedroom unless it has natural light coming in. As my neighbour's apartment was surrounded on two sides by adjoining walls, this meant a room mid-way through the length of the building (and otherwise devoid of natural light) could be considered a bedroom, and marketed as such.
