It will increase it, as now any local time calculations will need to take into account which country the user is currently in, whether the country has passed a law terminating daylight savings time, and whether the law has now taken effect (which may or may not be as simple as checking the year).

So basically, it creates a bunch of additional time zones that will activate depending on the current year.

I don't know that there needs to be a union per-se (it's actually never brought up in the article at all), but collective bargaining can work without one, on a company level.

It would take a tremendous effort to make that change within a company like Amazon, but that company is probably one of the best examples where that change needs to happen.

Costco is an example of a company where even the lowest paid employees are still fairly compensated, are guaranteed vacation, and receive good benefits.

It's the company culture and values that dictates how the lowest paid employees are treated, and that can be directed and redefined, at least according to the author, in large part by the highest paid employees.
Wait really? Any links on this? I don't recall hearing of this happening.
The incentive to come together as a group is not about how much an individual is paid, but to come together over a common ground and influence change that benefits the many over the few. Income is one of the most common things to throw out there because it encompasses pretty much everyone's life.

An individual can be paid handsomely, even if the group average is a fraction of the individual's number. Though you believe you are paid well, and you may very well be, it does not mean actions do not happen to suppress the momentum of someone sitting a desk or two away working toward the same goal as you.
Founder here. There are many differences in the result when you have an automated system building a Knowledge Graph vs. a human one.

Obvious one is scale, Wikipedia has on order 10M entities and represents the work of thousands of humans whereas the Diffbot KG has 10B entities and is discovering about 120M each day, and is largely limited by the number of machines running the algorithms in the datacenter. The properties and facts indexed about each entity are also a superset because it is not limited to those that would be worthwhile for a human to curate. Lastly, it can be more accurate than facts found in a single source because the automated system utilizes multiple sources of that fact found across the web to estimate a probability of the accuracy of the fact.

The result is that you have a Knowledge Graph that is more useful for work and business because they are the entities you interact with day to day, not the "head" entities that optimize for popularity and the constraints of human curation.
Ah yes. you are correct on both counts: Turku and narrower (I had brainfarts).

I grew up in a village 20 minutes outside of Beirut. We had 3 different power sources: (1) the 'baladiye' (local municipality), (2) the 'dawle' (regional government), and (3) the diesel generator by our house.

Between those 3, we averaged 8-20 hours of electricity per day, but that was out in the mountains. "UPS" to me still means "Uninterrupted Power Supply" -- a battery box connected to my desktop so that I could save my files and shut down quickly when the power went out.

People who lived on the same power grid as hospitals were typically the luckiest -- they had (almost entirely) uninterrupted power. I have no idea how you're supposed to have a modern economy these days without reliable internet, let alone access to cheap communications (which Lebanon also doesn't have).

WildFly 14 is released – WildFly
First up, we're not talking about a soup here, this isn't like it's a litre of water for every kilo of ore, it's just that it's enough to allow the solids to move without the friction they'd incur if entirely dry.

Ore starts out as rock buried in the ground. So, you're going to need to get that out of there. While you could do that with a bloke and a pickaxe I'm sure lots of the processes actually involved add water, even if not terribly much.

Also, this stuff isn't expensive, it's basically just slightly valuable dirt, so if it's stored somewhere they're not going to be keeping it in water-tight containers, it'll be in an open truck, or an open freight car somewhere, getting rained on.

Now, shipping dirty water across the ocean is pointless and costs money, so it's not as though they're going to add more water just for fun, but if the contracts involved don't specify that it has to be less than so-and-so much water in the cargo, then it's nobody's job to ensure it isn't damp.
but the article suggests that permanent accumulation in one side, rather than transient force, is the cause.

Traits are subtyped, they are simply a restricted kind of value that makes them more tractable than general value subtyping.
Well the 16-bit and 8-bit registers work this way, and actual hardware shows this is far from free. We've had partial register stalls, merging uops, and other weird behavior (for example, ah today works very differently from al).

It's easy to say "think of them as separate registers" just as it's easy to say "think of them as a partial registers" - but the ISA definition is such that they have to appear as partial registers in the scenarios where it would be visible.

So sure, you could make hardware that would rename and treat them as different registers (at it has been done on some x86 versions), but then when you read a wider portion you need to combine them, which won't be free (yes it happens "implicitly" but that doesn't somehow make it much easier for the hardware).

There are also plenty of cases where you want zero-extension for functional reasons, especially in compiled code where things like casts to a larger size become free. Cleverly using both halves of a register and using the implicit combination into a full 64-bit value is much rarer that just wanting to store a 32-bit value and sometimes wanting to use it as a zero-extended 64-bit value.

> High reliability is not achieved by making perfect designs, it is achieved by making designs that are tolerant of failure. Runtime checking is essential to this, as when a fault is detected the program can go into a controlled state doing things like

Very good point. That's is exactly the philosophy behind Erlang (the language and its VM, also extends to Elixir and other BEAM languages).

It has isolated process heaps and process hierarchy supervisors. That is the most critical part of the deal because it means crashes and failures are controlled and only a small part of the system would be affected, without it spidering out and putting the rest of the system and put it in an unknown state.

Microservices or just using OS processes instead of threads can kind of emulate that. But you can only have so many OS processes as they can pretty heavyweight. And with Microservices there whole other stack of stuff involved as opposed to just the language environment.

> I find these options far preferable than going into an unknown state and praying.

The idea of avoiding "unknown" state is key. That's also where crashing and restarting comes in - to get back to a known state. Of course you'd also want to log the failure so someone can eventually fix it. But, if a system is well designed, someone won't have to do it at 4am in the morning. I've seen systems crashing and restarting for weeks. Sounds terrible at first, but the alternative would have been having a service that's down completely and waking someone up in the middle of the night to fix the issue.
It is really really hard to buy time and freedom after the fact. I have seen many people try and eventually they tend to end up getting a slightly more expensive house instead. It is just that once you are on some track it is really hard to change, because most of the time you are giving up substance for money and they are both compounding. Or to put in tech terms, if you aren't doing what you see yourself doing in the future you are always building up some sort of debt.
Could it be that there are other pollutants that could cause similar issues?

Some countries have banned lead even before the US, but crime rates are still growing(Brazil, for instance). Poverty alone does not explain this. There are countries just as poor (or more), with corrupt police forces and that do not have the same issue with violence.

This nop idiom is very special however, since it isn't just about efficiency: if it wasn't a nop idiom, xchg eax, eax would not be a nop at all, it would clear the upper 32 bits, as xchg ebx, ebx does (or any other register other than eax).

Subtyping describes an abstraction with which you can substitute any implementation that conforms to that abstraction's signature (Liskov substitution). Subclassing instead typically imposes both subtyping and behavioural inheritance. So as a rough approximation:

Interface implementation = subtyping

Class inheritance = subclassing + subtyping, ie. inheriting behaviour + subtyping

An OO language where you were forced to specify subtyping by implementing interfaces, but you could separately declare some implementations you inherited from without that also applying a subtyping relationship with those types, then that would be a proper separation of concerns.

> Should work start at 13:45 in the Houston office and 13:35 in the Austin office?

Yes. (Or better, give employees flexibility to come in at a time that works for them).

> If you take away timezones and just say "everybody use UTC and somehow figure out how to adjust it to your local conditions", you've just pushed the cost of figuring out reasonable start & end times for different geographies onto every single member of society. All that will happen is people will come up with their own mappings between UTC and local conditions and guess what? They will look pretty close to what we have with timezones right now only it won't be standardized at all--making a huge mess of things. Outlook calendar will have its own mapping and Google Calendar will have a different one. Your company might have its own internal mapping that is different from your suppliers. Whoa be the person who tries to coordinate an event across these mappings ("your company does lunch at 17:49? Ours does it at 18:42 because that is closer to when the sun is overhead and people like to get in around 12:42")

"Mapping UTC onto local conditions" is not a problem that you ever have to solve. There are two kinds of problems you need to solve: coordinating events that happen in one location, and coordinating events that happen at a particular instant with people from multiple locations. For the first kind it doesn't matter if every office has its own solution - indeed it's better if every office has its own solution that fits their own conditions and the Norway office can start work at 8 and the Spain office can start at 11 if that suits the local climate, rather than deciding that both those countries are on CET so they'd both better start at 9AM CET. For coordinating a simultaneous event, UTC is the only thing that works (because if you try to use your local time and you get the offsets wrong, neither of you will notice).

> Whoa be the person who tries to coordinate an event across these mappings ("your company does lunch at 17:49? Ours does it at 18:42 because that is closer to when the sun is overhead and people like to get in around 12:42")

What problem does this create that doesn't already exist? If you're trying to arrange a lunch today, some people have lunch at 12, 1 or even 1:30 local time.

I was just writing a blog post about this, that people basically just find new ways to consume all the money they earn so that they're always on the edge. And a lot of people who make $40k scoff at the idea that they would still be scraping by at $140k, but lots of people go from making $40k in their 20's to $140k in their 40's and basically nobody retires comfortably in their 50's because $140k a year provided them with so much extra money. Rather, 50-somethings work just as much or more, they just tend to have much more expensive houses, cars, and hobbies than 20 year olds, and they still put just 4% of their income toward retirement, if they're careful.
I wonder at the same thing. Allow the intercept to change and you'll get a massively better predictor. That will also stop moderately higher density counties from being green, and moderately lower density ones from being pink.
I'm working on rewriting an application from a React-like VirtualDOM approach to "ordinary" React components for a similar reason in that while my original approach had many things going for it (was theoretically more performant than React DOM, at least some of the time, according to benchmarks), it really is hard to beat the overall ecosystem around React today. Some things I never got around to doing with the old approach have out-of-the-box React controls and I don't really have to do anything to get those behaviors versus feeling like I was writing the whole world from scratch.

Main reasons:

1) Telegram Channels has channels among other features. This is like streaming rss feeds right to your IM. Channels quickly became a most useful thing for media that is opposed to the regime or just shares the information that would be censored otherwise

2) Telegram has no censorship, the do not block those channels either

3) Their security might not be perfect, but it was enough for the said media to deliver information withough being caught in any way. Some of the media actually switched to Telegram Channels completely.

All of this (and some other minor things) goes agains the will of the regime obviously.

Not being able to see or hear what people say about you is on thing, they can deal with this like they did years ago. But they can't stand the fact that they can't controll the flow of systematized information.

This is not related to cultural differences. The government just wants to read what people write about and block information they don't like. And I assume they have difficulties spying on opposition activists which happen to use Telegram too.

It's disappointing to see no mention of fixing the broken assumptions that lead to difficulties working with Custom Elements, like not being able to set properties from JSX: https://github.com/facebook/react/issues/11347

React is from an era where you could assume a relative static, closed-world, set of built-in DOM elements, with largely attribute and children-based configuration. Now we have open-world set of user-defined elements, and Layered APIs like <virtual-scroller>, that have rich property and method-based APIs. And it seems they will still be difficult to use from React.
