Money is a massively abstract commodity, and as such, monetary distribution is an abstract measure of potential commodities. In concrete terms, this has a highly contingent relationship to well-being.

Collective wealth is, of course, subject to the same limitations but respectively less precise.

"... but it seems optimistic to say you never need it. If nothing else, you are bound to encounter large amounts of code that uses it"

Wait -- JavaScript now supports "it"??! Can you iterate over "them"? At least it's not gendered, so you need to use "him" and "her" and "it" depending on the object's gender, or just keep everything in a collection so you can use "them".

I'm glad I don't live in a place where it's ok to limit people's choices based on someone's opinion on what is or isn't the 'right application.'

I'm sorry about your mother's asthma; my 6 year old son is a type 1 diabetic - that doesn't make it ok for me to go chastising society's choice to put sugar in practically EVERYTHING we eat or to try force society to change because of my son's misfortune.

Thanks for the explanation. The telemetry/tracking stuff is what I'm mainly concerned by (and was previously aware of) but I balked at the idea that they'd introduced something more in Quantum that I hadn't yet heard of.

Ironically I'd be far more interested in switching to Waterfox if it switched to Quantum. Not only is the new extension's API far nicer than the previous one for new developers starting new extensions (yes porting old extensions is a pain, and sometimes impossible due to lack of feature-parity) but it's much more secure, which should be a priority for something focused on protecting a user's privacy. Furthermore, I wasn't aware until reading your linked list, but it appears Waterfox allows installing unsigned extensions by default: is this true? The unsigned config value is already very easy to set in Firefox, but having it set by default is just asking for users to shoot themselves in the foot in terms of leaking private data to extensions.

The porting effort from Mozilla's side can hardly be described as "developer-hostile" either; they've continuously added APIs for specific 3rd-party extensions on-request, and had a 2+ year compatibility roll out with plenty of shouty warning.
Darpa should have open betting market for these concepts.

Only thing I might moderately bet on is electric motors inside wheels. Electric motors can be more durable, require less maintenance and perform better.

That shaping wheel concept is obvious no go. I would bet serious money against it. Tank tread is the weak point even in modern main battle tank. Their design is simpler but they have problems with mechanical complexity and short lifespan and reliability. Tracks getting jammed or thrown track is relatively common.

Just take a that wheel to a drive across mud, sand and bushes with lots of sticks and stones and see how it goes. Low maintenance and reliability are high on military priorities.
Require "crunch time" to be fairly compensated as it should be (overtime rate) and see how quickly and suddenly crunch time is not needed anymore.

At most companies "crunch time" is just a label stuck on "squeezing salaried employees for every last drop of juice".

When there's no penalty on the company for needing crunch time, suddenly they find themselves needing a lot of it.

You can easily see how nonsensical all of this corporate garbage is by hypothetically flipping it around to the benefit of employees and think about how they would react instead.

Hey boss it's "quiet time" can I go home an hour early for 2 weeks? No ... DING DING!

So don't expect it to be ok to ask me to stay an hour late because it's "crunch time".

Same thing applies to "as long as shit gets done". They always adjust that so that somehow the amount of shit that is expected to get done is more than you can manage in a day. Never the other way around.

No company says "hey enough shit got done for today and it's 3PM so go home and see you tomorrow". No in that case you keep working and get more shit done.

Let's not dress it up, it's all corporate psychological warfare.

Some missing details, which I would call critical.

1) The day before there was a big AMA where players and developers talked about the story design, initiated and organized by the game studio. The fired developer was a prominent figure in the discussions, and the twitter thread was seen by most as an further extension to that AMA. People can have different opinion about this, but its important to know the context of when the twitter thread appeared.

2) The initial response by the community at large was both on reddit and on the official Guild Wars 2 Forum to not fire anyone. It was only later unearthed that the developer had also celebrated when cancer victim John Bane died at age 33. At this point many have pointed out that the community changed view and could no longer support having such individual in the community, and a massive thread called something like "Developers should also have to follow Anet own conduct policy" was created.

Hedging is useful, but there is some lines which companies and communities are unlikely to accept. Celebrating the death of cancer victims is one, and is likely not something any one want to be associated with. The second aspect is to not responding to art criticism with labeling the person as sexist to 10k followers, which given the close connection to Anet organized AMA and the fact that their name is directly next to the message could make Anet legal liable for slander. Third, game developer is closely connected to community management and there is a good reason why conduct policies exist and get enforced. One could argue in defense that twitter is "personal" and out of the conduct policy scope, but that is very much up to discussion and it seems that the guild wars 2 community is generally in favor that such policy do cover developers talking about the game on social media, especially in connection to community events.
Yes.

With your average Intel desktop almost everything is in the Linux kernel, you don't have cellular, and you use UEFI or BIOS to boot.

With your average Android phone, you are lucky if you have kernel code. This does not include drivers for most things, and the code is of such quality that even when manufacturers try to update the kernel version they are having too much trouble.
I hope WebAssembly will not only be a web technology, but the de-facto format for cross-platform high-performance embedding. Such as for plugins, scripting and extensions.

Something you could send over the wire to the remote application and it could execute it with high performance and reasonable security. Cryptographic signatures can be used for more security sensitive contexts.

So one thing I'm really hoping no matter what happens to WebAssembly, that the external interface and requirements are kept simple.

Minimal required dependencies, no built-in class library, etc. It'd be ideal if WASM runtime environment is very lightweight, preferably just 100s of kB. The smaller, the better. Especially some kind of dependency for Javascript would be disastrous.

It'd be amazing if it was possible to run small ~10 kB WASM modules remotely on a microcontroller, like Cortex M4+ or such, with say 64 kB of RAM. You could add a lot of flexibility in some applications.

It actually looks very interesting for cross-platform "scripting", once there's a good cross-platform optimizing compiler library for it.

From where I stand, currently the most interesting proposals of the listed ones:

0) High-performance non-web "embeddability" with low memory requirements. (Not actually listed, but very much desirable.)

1) Threading. Would greatly help performance and portability in some cases. I'm a bit sceptical whether there's a way to add this after CPU speculative attacks (Spectre, etc.) became known.

2) SIMD. Lots of filtering and data processing algorithms can greatly benefit from this.

3) Tail calls / bulk memory ops.

4) Export / import mutable globals (and good module support in general)

5) Exceptions. (Minor, portability).
I don't get it. Chlorinated water from the drinking tap, otherwise perfectly pure, smells of chlorine. And swimming pools might use much more than it's used in public water distribution, and in variable amounts- depending on how many tablets have been used, how recently, etc.
We are looking at moving to Vector tiles after the deployment of openstreetmap raster tiles is completed. We need to look at the performance closely though because on some devices it was slower with Vector tiles. I think we still want to go that direction we just have to quantify some of the performance.

International Coastal Cleanup volunteers have picked up more than half a million straws and stirrers, making straws one of the top ten items on their annual list.

Living without straws.....waa, waa, waa....if whining about straws is macho, no wonder women are disillusioned with men.

I tend not to use the file menu in Windows Explorer, but yeah it'd be nice if that option swapped it there too.

Syncope == faint(ing)

> Why are stereotypical American "low-income" foods largely processed meats and junk food (e.g. boxed macaroni and cheese, spam, Vienna sausages), instead of staples like rice, oats, beans, lentils, etc. […]?

To quote from
(http://www.cracked.com/blog/the-5-stupidest-habits-you-devel...):
Fresh food […] takes forever to prepare.

Rice, for instance, takes about half an hour to make. If you’re poor, you most likely work all the time, and are constantly tired. No way are you going to waste half a hour to make rice (just plain rice!), when you can get something much more tasty and almost as cheap which takes five minutes at most to make?

> We'd […] often cook meat over wood fires to save money on gas for the oven.

I've found this is often a problem in languages that pass simple values by value but compound values like objects and arrays by reference. The meaning of a qualifier like const and the inference a reader can draw when they see it can fundamentally change depending on what type of value it is applied to.

My experience has been that both the change in value/reference behaviour and the lack of total immutability guarantees when using a const qualifier on a reference type can be a source of bugs.

Languages like C and C++ distinguish more explicitly between value and reference semantics, and likewise between constant pointers and [mutable] pointers to constant data. To some extent that removes those sources of bugs, at the expense of having to write more explicit but verbose types like `const SomeType &` instead of `SomeType` all over the place.
Survey on Java features for Java professionals
Is that so? According to: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concatenative_programming_la... there's a little more to it.

I suppose if you squint a bit, any push-jump-ret-pop sequence is concatenative - but I'm not sure if I agree that the main way to go from a few general assembly language programs that each read from a file, count words, and sums integers - to a program that counts words in a file is to simply concatenate them?
Maybe I meant both back end and front end?
- High performance server code handling continuous multiple requests
- Rendering engine and game logic
I think request upon needing the permission makes a lot of sense. After all when you do an action and it requests a permission you at least have a chance to understand why it's needed.

Wouldn't it make sense to have temporary permissions? In Linux and Windows you have to sudo/admin also for one single action or a set of actions. You don't give a program access rights for eternity.

Maybe I want to use some app's location service only very rarely and I fear that it has some surveillance features integrated. If I'm ok sharing my location right now, I might not be ok sharing it always. It would be good to have the ability to give it the permission once, until a system restart, or for a limited timeframe.
Show HN: Persistent async/await state – use JavaScript as a lean workflow tool
People say that about Go while I don’t have an opinion. I don’t understand what you mean by your example
It is a transpiler and runtime library, it offers writing workflow process descriptions in plain JavaScript, using all modern JS features and any third party library.

When the process is suspended (in `await` or `yield`), its whole state can be saved to DB. It is resumed after some external action, e.g. e-mail confirmation, or some date, or some ticket in issue tracking system changes state etc.

The library doesn't provide DB facilities itself, it gives access to computation state. And it is fairly trivial to save it in any DB. The same for actions implementations.

For example:

```
if (tooLateForToday)
await tomorrow
```

The whole EffectfulJS tool is not only for workflow definitions though, it is for embedding abstract effects into JS, there are many more concrete tools can be done on top on it by just implementing its small abstract API.
I really hate it when I need to send a single file or photo, an app suddenly "needs access to my filesystem" and I have to grant that access.

OSes should allow me to create a sandbox for an app, so I can grant them access (and the app will not "break"), while still being secure.
This has been the secret in my experience. Pay for Prime, and only buy Prime items. For me the convenience is worth it, even though I know I’m feeding directly into what Amazon wants; to not fix their massive counterfeit problem.
Now, I'm thinking of all those images of old Russians going in to frozen outdoor pools, AFAIR they always climb down a ladder/steps. This might explain why.

Slowly getting in to cold water is some kind of torture to me, I always dive in. But frigid water is not my thing at all.
> The systems which provided generic data worked very well a lot of the time, but also some of the time would just subtly break things in a way which was not obvious for a non-technical user.

Is this available via a non-root API? There are those blackmailing applications that refuse to do their core functionality when a certain unrelated permission is denied (the hell you need my location, music streaming app!). If Android fed them generic data, they would quickly learn to detect it - but not if data is controlled by other Apps or the user himself.
Luckily, it's much better in the USA, even though many regulations vary across state and county lines. Where I worked, we needed an in-pool refresher course and test every year, with a pool management course (chemicals, filter, etc) every 2 or 3 years. After getting you American Red Cross CPR certification, you needed to take a short refresher course every year for the next 2 years, after which you'd need to retake the course.
I also think it's worth noting that fat arrow class methods is not a feature of JavaScript/ECMAScript, but rather a feature of Babel. It might make it into a future standard, but so might decorators (including autobinding decorators) or double-colon syntax for binding. None of these is currently legal vanilla JS.
Potential exposure to some dangerous bacteria growing inside the confined space seems like a decent hypothesis, though. Especially when the inside released a foul odor upon being opened.
One thing I've always missed is tabbed consoles. I've use Cmder (http://cmder.net/ I have no affiliation) for quite a while now and has been totally awesome as it provides a tabbed container window with any mixture of cmd.exe, bash shell, launching as Admin and best of all it persists all your windows after reboot.

New Bedford, Massachusetts: The city that once lit the world
Minimum wage where you are is perhaps somewhat higher than minimum wage in many other parts of the World.

More than 80% of the World's population lives on less than $10 per DAY. If you live in one of those areas, and you can make that per hour, you can have a good life.

What's more, you're never going to be short of work, because people are going to look at you and realise you are the same skill-wise as the guy wanting $1k/day in London, so why not save some money and everybody is happy - even the $1k/day guy is happy because they are working for a client who values the work at that more than the client thinking "wait, I could get this done for less than a tenth of the price".

Over time (perhaps quite quickly once you've proven you can work well with clients in the EU and US), you can raise your rates, of course, and that's awesome for everybody.

It's just wise to not automatically presume that 10/hr is a bad rate for that individual in that circumstance - there's enough work going around for all of us that we can deal with the low-balling etc. from other countries.
