A wild guess: more computing power means more content that can be processed and the need for more content can be addressed by computer generation. For example, just a few years ago open world games were just a handful and required a lot of work. Nowadays even a simple game can have a large procedurally generated world.

I would assume the data was collected only for adults. The "internet Users" figure seems to be roughly 50% of the total population for the country.
Web applications have interactive functionality as their focus. Websites have the consumption of what a human, and not an HTML parser, would call a "document": video, text, and images. They may not be statically served, but their code exists to facilitate the serving of what are recognizably documents.

Wordpress's backend is a web application. That web application exists to drive the website that is its frontend. Not really a controversial standpoint, I don't think, except amongst the hyper-literal who but-for about comment features (hence the use of "focus" above).

"You're saying that ..."

No, that's not what he's saying, and no, a single person does not have the same leverage an entire collective has against a larger company.
Thanks. I had genuinely misread that em dash as, well, an em dash. I hadn't seen that you could it like a single word, which is obviously how it was meant. Edited.

Still, the difference is enormous. Your explanation is so much better. Eg you used words like "servers" and "something bad" and "notify the right person". I still maintain that their landing page scares startup founders away and that we can safely deduct they don't make the majority of their money from VC funded companies.

"That change c never truly goes away, but it is so small that it doesn't really matter: if you make
c small enough, the derivative is basically 8. So we're just going to pretend that all the
cs are so small they have become zero."

My first calculus teacher taught us derivatives in a similar way - but I have to say that, for me, this imprecise language confused me. When and why is it OK to pretend that c is zero!?

Further on, the official definition using a limit claims that the "c->0" means "make c as small as possible". But that's not what it means. Again, this is imprecise language that confuses more than it explains. What does "as small as possible" even mean? If we want to make it as small as possible, why not set it to 0!? How small is small enough?

I think somewhere in this article there should be a precise definition of what a limit is, using epsilon and delta.

It should be saying something using the words "arbitrarily close" and "sufficiently small".

Something like : "we can make the approximation on the left arbitrarily close to the expression on the right by choosing any value of c sufficiently close to 0, even though the expression might be undefined when c=0. Epsilon: you tell me how close you want the approximation to be. Delta: I tell you how small c needs to be".

There used to be a great website that was precise but also informal: karlscalculus.org - but sadly it appears to be down now.

You're pregnant! You're entitled to maturity leave right? Isn't that normal? Why do you need "leverage"?

I'm not kidding, so I'll ask again, even clearer. Does America not have the concept of maturity leave by law? Is it like considered a perk or something?

I'm so confused because, well, where I live when you're pregnant, tell the boss is exactly what you'd do! And then you get maturity leave. And the GGP says that that's somehow totally laughably ridiculous, so laughably ridiculous that it warrants sharing imgur gifs, and I really don't get it and I also still don't get how America can function at all when something as basic as this isn't, well, basic.

Customer data theft – British Airways
Meanwhile no ISP whatsoever in Italy has deployed IPv6 in any form or shape. We still get a dynamic publicly routable IPv4 on landline based connections, but that's it.

The ex-monopolist, Tim, has shown it's plans for IPv6 rollout almost ten years ago using DS-Lite, to no avail. It lingered around as a little known feature you can opt in if you are still stuck with an ADSL connection (it's not supported neither with VDSL, nor FTTH), that introduces an enormous amount of lag to IPv4 connections and it's arcane to set up.

Not even university campuses have IPv6, because most network administrators either do not care about it or do not know how to set it up. It sucks, and it's sadly the standard reaction this country has towards any new technology; everybody just tries to ignore new developments to delay training and setup costs, until it gets too late and inevitable to avoid, leading to rushed up deployments, skyrocketed costs and a general lack of awareness and knowledge about how it works or how it should be employed.
It's quite odd (and pricey).

I asked about just IPv6 (with dynamic IPv4), and they said that wasn't an option at all. /shrug

Not sure if this is a mentally sane advice.

There is quite a bit confusion how it actually works, nobody seems to had a look at it. Chrome simply hides the subdomain if the url bar is not in edit mode, these parts are still accessible/editable and the http host behaves (and is recovered from history) as before. Copying the url works as expected.

It is still confusing for tech people, because we often need awareness where we are.

And I say this as a user of both.

Today for my React state management I use just a plain vanilla JS class (ES2015, to be precice). I have immutable state and PureComponent classes, like all the cool guys. I could, in principle, maintain the immutable state myself using a lot of Object.assign() calls, but there is a nice little library called "icepick" that does it for you. The library is just a set of pure functions that return standard JavaScript frozen objects.

This way I have all the advantages of Redux, but with very terse BS-free code.

I've always thought it was depending on how far from the vertical edge (i.e. current value) I click that I either get a "drag" (if clicked close enough) or a "set / drag&set" (clicked farther away). Or maybe it was just my mental model I got stuck on from some Motif (IIRC?) controls.

Actually, in Gimp 2.10.4 it now for me even changes the shape of the cursor: lower half: ↔ (left-right arrows) upper half: ↑ (up-arrow) so it seems they fixed the discoverability :)
whose drive
Although I wouldn't argue against unit testing(I use it too), I'm a little more hesitant about incentivizing test quantity. Many times when this comes up having been tried it gets attached to a anecdote that goes: "And so we wrote very bad tests and atomized the codebase into unmaintainable pasta code that could be trivially tested to make the number go up."

Which leads me to a hypothesis that there's some other quantifiable out there that would work better than unit test coverage: a "diversity test" metric. The software artifacts produced by writing code and after a build are not "the software" in the sense of the whole project. Documentation, support, and so on are also "the software." Logging and profiling tools enable debugging methods other than "stare at the code very intensely". If you start from a holistic standpoint and assume quality requires multiple angles of inspection then your choices of technique broaden substantially.

If you changed a mandate of "must test all code" to a mandate of "must either test, log, profile, or document all code" you would add leeway for the corners that are test-averse to be documented or logged instead, and vice-versa. The combination gives you a palette of feedback: if it's hard to do any of those things, you have bad code. Ideally you can get all of it, but that is unlikely to be the norm for most organizations most of the time. But more bugs will be caught by this web of feedback than if you mandate any one of those methods alone.

I think that a lot of people who have not directly experienced this sexism believe this, that it is the exception and not the norm.

Even as a guy, I have personally witnessed that it is the norm, and that most organizations that have managed to avoid being sexist by default are very special indeed.

There is some bias that makes people (men) want to believe that “it can’t possibly that bad, or if it is, it can’t possibly be that common”. Be aware of this bias.

Those are basically the same reasons why I don't use v6 at home and have turned it off in my home router. Everything just works with v4. v6 is a potential source of error and/or security risk.

I haven't felt the need to learn more about v6, and it is quite complex so it'll take me a day or so to learn enough to be able to configure my network and know that I haven't screwed that up. But I keep putting that off. There's far more interesting stuff to learn and do.

I would've gladly accepted and adopted a version that's just IPv4 plus 16 bits of extra address space, and anything else exactly the same. That would've solved the original address shortage problem, and would be a breeze to configure.

For me, and I think for a lot of people, the complexity and thus cost of v6 dwarfs the potential benefits and therefore that complexity is the primary force holding back its adoption.

I don't know exactly why it is pleasurable, but to me it's sometimes about the sound itself. I just find some sounds pleasing, like the vibration of a cello string being bowed or a dirty electric guitar riff with tons of distortion. Very specifically I love the distortion produced by the Boss HM-2 pedal, which a lot of my favorite metal bands use. Perhaps it's something about the "texture" of certain sounds that I find very appealing.

It's not just the sound itself though, there's also something about a good riff or a well-written chorus. I don't get music that's too free-form, like improvisational jazz or stuff with way too many tempo changes. There has got to be a groove, a rhythm, a flow, a drive and a connection between the instruments, so they're playing together, to create a whole that is greater than the sum of its parts.

There is obviously also something to be said for emotional connections to specific songs or passages. As an example just off the top of my head, I read The Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck as they were published when I was 7-9 years old, they were part of my formative years, as you might say.

So when I listen to Tuomas Holopainen's 2014 concept album Music Inspired by the Life and Times of Scrooge, it just touches something in me, I get all emotional and well up, especially at this song https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JWwSVOo5K_k

I obviously don't expect other people to have quite the same reaction, but to me, aside from being a hauntingly beautiful piece of music, it also tugs deeply at my childhood nostalgia, and elevates the music to a whole new level for me.

> Which is why IMO, we should stop pushing 18 year olds into college. Let them work a full-time job somewhere and live outside of their parents' place for a few years go get a feel for the real world.

That means a 45 min long trip each day to work. Hopefully you have a shower and clothes change, I'm assuming very fast driving here. Otherwise 2h each averaging "comfortable but fast" 10 mph. (silly units) Good luck trying to actually hold such an average.

Dependents will be a major problem in such a scheme, adding another 2 hours. Unless there is a good bus connection, give it half an hour then. (those are not free but still inexpensive)

Libraries put even more pressure on transportation. It should be cheaper to use a mail order service. Heck, even for bigger groceries.

These are costs all hidden in plain sight. Everything takes a lot of time in the US if your mode of transport is not a car.

Now to own a cheap used car also has costs. And a poor person cannot afford a cheap modern car, used car market is full of landmines and a poorer person cannot afford even one failure in this regard.
point is its not as fast as they claim it to be, because they take edge cases as always. I never said the new models are slower, no need to strawman my argument.
