I would prefer that Google would add labels like "pirate site" or "legitimate copy". How can a normal user understand what kind of site they are visiting and whether the site has a legal copy of a movie? The copyright agreements are not public.

For example, there is a website that allows to watch Japanese TV from abroad (quite expensive by the way). How one can be sure that they are not paying to scammers?
> I am not familiar with any other instances of such partial delisting by Google. Are you?

I've been experiencing partial delisting on my own website over the last 3 months. Google Search Console [1] shows they now exclude 25% of my website from the index. Search Console lists those pages as "Crawled - currently not indexed".

Mine is also an old site (nearly 20 years old), but it already used CSS & XHTML, and I'd been updating it to HTML 5, mobile friendly & responsive design & implemented HTTPS. I hadn't been adding new pages / content, though.

When did your Google traffic start declining? My Google traffic started taking a hit around March 9, and there was apparently a "Core Algorithm Update" on March 7:

I think there’s a lot of information we take in about our surroundings (sounds, smell, peripheral vision, motion, etc) that all gets shoved in to a ‘memory’. When we are focused on taking pictures, we block that stuff out - either physically (peripheral vision) or mentally (sound, smells).

> In your first snippet, would you expect a candidate to tell you that `f` might be undefined?

No. Because I'd expect the candidate to focus on subtle issues, and not waste time on bleeding obvious ones!

Of course f() might be undefined. Blind Freddy knows that. But Blind Freddy can't necessarily see the other (much more subtle) problems in those 4 lines of code.

I want to know, is this candidate more than Blind Freddy? Does he inhabit what some of us call "the real world", where things like division by zero are things to be consciously managed by proper coding practices?

Thank you for your response! You are correct in saying that GCSF doesn't download any data upfront. It constructs the file tree at mount time using only file metadata and downloads the actual file content only when it encounters a `read` call. This is an advantage if you're running low on local space (the file system essentially adds 15 GB of "free" additional storage).

Real time collaboration is indeed a shortcoming. I would still use the online interface of docs/sheets/slides for this purpose.

I haven't personally used Backup and Sync, as there is no Linux version of it. From what I gather, it seems that it uploads local files to a new category on Drive instead of the 'My Drive' directory. This can be useful for automatic backup. You simply set it up once and forget about it.

However, GCSF might be a better choice for the additional control it provides. Whereas with Backup and Sync you have to inspect a file manually in order to check whether it was synced or not, GCSF ensures that a pending write operation will only return once the file transfer is effectively complete. For instance, when copying a file to Drive, the execution of the command will take as long as the upload process itself. Once finished, an exit status of 0 will indicate precisely that the upload was successful and the file is certainly on Drive.

I imagine this sort of strategy is a better fit for use cases which require high confidence and predictable behavior.
I don't know why this guy is being downvoted. Websites should be able to work without 3rd party Javascript.
Your website is the first result for "antipolygraph" and the third for "polygraph countermeasures", so it's a little difficult to take seriously a claim of a targeted "partial delisting" because your website doesn't perform so well for a primary search term (which yields a series of results from sources which are mobile friendly and have better SEO, most of which are critical of polygraphs and several of which also purport to include information on how to defeat them)
Yes, you're totally right: it’s a lot of clicking around even before you get to actually start designing.

If you have read Cracking the Coding Interview, the author describes a guy who was hired in her company because there was super shortage of developers. The guy barely knew HTML. He used to come late to office, play ping pong and take off before sundown.

I don't drive, so no :)

More to the point, figuring out the speed of a moving object is not an AI task- and I don't mean that in the sense of "if it works it's not AI". I mean, really, it's not something AI was ever interested in, presumably because it's not a particularly complicated calculation, given the right equipment.

Generally, AI is interested in problems that demand, how can I put it, unorthodox solutions. Or just very tricky ones.

So the kind of thing I thought you meant was identifying, say, burglars or muggers, from video feeds etc. That sort of thing is not possible yet, certainly not outside controlled conditions ("in the lab").

As an extension to your comment, here's a decent advice which is based on the principle of DeepWork.

https://azeria-labs.com/the-importance-of-deep-work-the-30-h...

So basically, instead of just going through different subjects try to work on 1 subject/topic for 30 hours (across multiple days, maybe take a break between days) and then check if you want to go further on the subject. Apparently, 30 hours is a good enough time frame to realise if you have an interest on the subject of your choosing.

I'm struggling to actually start with something interesting, and after reading your comment I remembered the process outlined in the article. Thanks!!
But isn't the reason that the exact ranking algorithms and factors are not public mostly to prevent people from gaming the system? If the exact formula for being the best ranked result would be public every seo-spam site would adapt to them too and everything becomes irrelevant again.
One of the first lessons activists (should) learn is the shortsightedness of judging the content of an individual according to what they do for a living; the means of survival they have trained and adjusted for. In an action, strategy will often overrule this but as a conscious exercised and ideally organized process. This along with overlooking petty symbolic straw mans like using cell phones to organize against cell phone companies is like learning to potty train; critical first steps toward maturity.

In other words, evaluate components in proper and sufficient contexts. Software engineers might benefit from a similar conversation, to open more room for discussion around actual problem solving.

A quick follow-up to this point. The exome, or coding region of the DNA is approximately 1% of the genome, so arguably the chances of a mutation randomly occurring in a coding region are 1/100 as probable as I suggested here.

There are a few caveats:

1) The non-coding region appears to be less useless than previously assumed. There are still 'highly preserved' areas in non-coding regions. If a section of the genome is highly preserved, it means that a mutation in that region probably results in death/non-viability of the organism.

2) We know the rate of mutation of the genome. If random mutations were really adding enough base pairs in the telomere region to lengthen it, the genome would be growing at an incredible rate.

There are a lot of reasons why it's also implausible, but they have to do with the amount of energy in a bond, etc. and other biochemistry stuff that I'm not qualified to comment on.
As an Emacs user, I'm so curious about vim packages. Does vim have packages that are akin to adding a major mode in Emacs? Some of the packages on this list look like the vim version of minor modes or little helper functions.
I just checked and you're 100% right! They're totally same. I wasn't aware of this until a minute ago. I'm sorry for the confusion I caused by the original comment. The advice about combination of DDG and SP is quite sound, thank you for that.
I think that's a great idea, but seems conflicting to the mindset that the almond farmers have (and most conventional farmers). That is, that's a more whole system mindset (see also permaculture) where farmers growing acres upon acres of just one crop (almonds, corn, soy) see it as discrete and disconnected from other crops and resources.

Tags aren't just meta. For example, a sentence has a different meaning when it's alone vs. part of a list vs. a caption of an image. All of those things have their own tags.
It's possible that there's a physical principle by which you can aestivate without being accessibly annihilable.

Some principle like "the only way to annihilate something in aestivating space is to annihilate the entire universe it's aestivating in."

I think the best approach is to only take a few photos of an event. Just enough to be memory triggers.

Increasingly, we see people spending more time worried about photos than just enjoying the thing they are photographing.

For events that do need more "documenting", then you should have a designated photographer (professional or not) that way the rest of the attendees can just enjoy it.

I'd seen Fermat's Library but haven't used it. I hadn't heard of distill.pub before your comment.

Honestly, I don't see scientific papers going away anytime soon. What's the alternative to an individual or group setting out clearly in writing what they discovered, the evidence that it's true, and the background and context to the discovery, putting the writeup where interested people can easily find it, and then taking full responsibility for it, so others can cite and build on the work? As far as I'm concerned, that's all a "scientific paper" means---regardless of whether it appears in a prestigious journal or just the arXiv or somewhere else on the web, and whether it otherwise follows normal academic writing conventions or flouts them. Even an answer on a website like MathOverflow, were it sufficiently well-written and sourced, could as far as I'm concerned be cited as a research paper and given academic credit.

But while "papers," for some definition, are probably here to stay, I'm optimistic about deep reform to the system of journals. The first step, of course, should be for academics to shake off the yoke of the truly brazen predatory publishers like Elsevier. Many of us have already pledged never again to review for or submit to those publishers, at least until they fundamentally change their practices. For more about this, see my review of "The Access Principle": https://www.scottaaronson.com/writings/journal.html

As the next step, we should break free even of society journals, insofar as they put research results behind a paywall. Everything---certainly if it was funded by the taxpayers---should be freely accessible on the web. (In math, CS, and physics, we already put essentially all our papers on the arXiv, where they're freely available, and have been doing that for ~25 years. But the fact that the paywalls even exist still rankles---and other fields, like biology, have yet to catch up.)

Ultimately, we might converge on the model of journals as "arXiv overlays": that is, stamps of approval that particular arXiv preprints have been peer-reviewed (which is pretty much the only service that journals now provide anyway). Or maybe we'll even handle peer review in some other way entirely. E.g., people keep trying to experiment with peer reviews being public, but it keeps failing---possibly because, lo and behold, most academics don't want their frank commentary on the importance of each other's work to be made public with their names on it! :-)

As it happens, my friend and colleague Michael Nielsen used to work in quantum computing, but now spends full time at Y Combinator thinking about the future of scientific communication. He wrote a book that had lots of interesting ideas for how we could improve things, and surely there are many other good ideas waiting to be proposed, possibly taking advantage of recent or near-future technologies. While the concept of a "paper" (or treatise, or monograph, or note, or other unit of written research) strikes me as mostly determined by the nature of science itself, as far as I'm concerned almost everything else is up for grabs.
Hey this looks great. So this would work out of the box for something like daptin[1] on server side ? It exposes http://jsonapi.org/ compliant CRUD APIs. If so, I would suggest getting it listed at http://jsonapi.org/implementations/ by sending them a PR

So, essentially:

- validation is checking that there exists at least an end user who will need what you are building;

- verification is checking that what you have built so far will meet or continue to meet their needs and other end users similar to them.

For the life of me, I can't understand why React is as popular as it is. A web application is simply HTML, CSS and Javascript. Why do people want to make it so damn complicated?

I was around when browser based apps started to take over the enterprise software world. One of the big selling points was its simplicity compared to native desktop development languages like (horrors!) Visual Basic. Anyone could open up Notepad and create a simple HTML page with some form elements and a submit button.

Now, I realize that browsers' capabilities have advanced enormously in the intervening years, but it's still just HTML, CSS and Javascript, once the transpilers and the zillion other build tools get done with it. And I would argue that someone who really knows HTML, CSS and Javascript at a deep level can write it directly and maintain it a lot more efficiently than with a bunch of third-party frameworks and an overly-complex build process.
The people who actually take humanity to the stars (if it happens) will likely be motivated, in part at least, by this and other grand, cosmic ideas. I personally find it motivating and invigorating in a certain sense.

How is the plugin management in vim? I use emacs and it’s a pain to setup. You need to modify a config file (.emacs) in order to add plugin lists (melpa). You then browse the list through a shortcut (M-x list-packages) and you only see names, no description or ways to look for something specific. Once you installed your plugins there are no real way to access a manual or learn them. Often you will need to modify config files to make them usable.

I'm not a vim user (yet), but this feature is built into Atom and I've come to find it indispensable. I'm a bit of a commit diff freak (I like it neat and tidy), and once i've finished messing around on some branch I want to gradually converge to some simple differences, a git diff type gutter is really helpful in visualising ("watch git.." can come close but nothing is as good as in editor integration).

Actually, if you already have a classically functionally complete gate (say, the Fredkin or Toffoli gates), then you only need one other gate to get a functionally complete set for quantum computing. This one other gate could be the Hadamard, which I discussed in other answers. The Hadamard gate is needed to put your machine into a superposition of states, and then also to create interference between the different branches of the superposition. Of course, if you have no superposition and no interference, then it isn't much of a quantum computer!

If your question was instead to explain the concepts of superposition and interference themselves, then unfortunately that would take more time. However, you could try some essays that I wrote a while ago
