> Adsense was the first breach in trust for me, when they banned my account for no reason and ruined any chance of every monetizing my content...since they are basically a monopoly in that area. Getting off their blacklist, is literally impossible.

Same thing happened to me shortly after Adsense started up. They banned my account when I was 17/18 for clicking on my own ads, which I'd never done because I knew you'd get banned for it. I'm now 32, so in two years my Adsense account will have been banned for literally half my life.
It depends on what you mean by purely functional, the lambda calculus certainly doesn't require stack frames. Even better, you can implement any programming language without a stack. Stack frames are only a convenience feature for programmers after all (well, and many architectures probably do some hardware optimizations when using the stack related registers for stack things).
That is because they are doing useless jobs or work which is not yet in demand here. If they invested in education or some equipment which were raising in demand, they would be fine. Many of ordinary workers in Ukraine emigrate to the EU actually - even more would do that if the EU did not establish those discriminating boundaries with visas : )

But the main reason of their poor life is corrupted government which have been here for many years and which didn't give them opportunity to invest properly (not everyone can be a programmer, I admit). We had several hyper-inflation periods with banks going bankrupt, with too complicated legislation no one seriously followed, unfair privatization of former state property, policemen killing and robbing people, etc.

New does not mean improved. Sometimes you have to stick to what works and you know.

The serverless hype, yes hype. Really means you are handing control of you application and it’s infrastructure over to someone else.

There is no reason why you shouldn’t self host. Also keep in mind running in a container on your server is still self hosting.

If you need a a full vm like container then use a vm, if your project can run in a docker container then use docker. However these are considerations for scaling your project not a prequsite how you host or develop your project.

This is the exact opposite of what economics would predict. If you have a greater risk than your friend, then you will pay more because your expected risk is higher. In perfect competition, your rate would be equal to your expected return (that is, the premiums would match the expected payout).

So, if an insurer can identify that you have a greater risk than your friend, in perfect competition you would pay a higher rate. No insurer with perfect knowledge of risk would allow you to pay less than that, because they’re expected return would be negative.
I love it! Thanks!
Back when I was enlisted, my sergeant had a bit of a conundrum. Troops were grumbling about being repeatedly assigned to the same posts, and we didn't have enough time during the shift to scramble the roster while ensuring adequate manning.

I wrote a simple Excel macro which randomly assigned security personnel to posts they held qualifications for. Since it didn't have any knowledge of personality conflicts or preferences of the troops getting assignments, the results generated by the Rosternator 3000 were generally hated by all involved.

In the end the tool was still useful - the mere threat of a randomized roster was enough to get everyone to quit grumbling.
What does it mean, to “love” someone? Is it a prescriptive phenomenon - where if I say I love you, then we must take it at face value regardless of my actions towards you? Or is it a more descriptive thing, where my acts may show that I love you even though I may never tell you the words “I love you” explicitly as such?

Or is the act of “loving” a purely self centered one - where my love is purely a means to fulfill my own needs (of wanting to be desired, appreciated, needed, respected, empowered, etc)?
Ah yes, that well-known and beloved feature of the iPhone: the page scroll button. This is pretty sad and weird of you dude.
Typically your debugger will be a listener, so it's easy for you to write explanatory functions and in-the-moment expressions for unpacking what's going on. The latter is what I miss most whenever I end up in gdb.
in C-vs-C comparisons on the 1 test file given, dav1d was 60% faster than libaom v1.0.0.

But indeed, most of this is not yet very interesting, it looks like current git/master libaom has a good amount of SIMD, and in most user testing, it is approximately 4x as fast as dav1d, which does not yet have any SIMD. So at this point, users should probably still use libaom while the kinks are ironed out in dav1d and initial SIMD is added. But keep an eye out over the next few months.

Yes, the same exists in Finland (social entrepreneurship), but since we can all agree on that there are huge differences between companies, how they operate, and how moral they are, we can agree on that there's a lot of playground for the execution of a good mission statement.
There's on the one hand maximization by moving your production to a third world country and by paying the absolute minimum to your employees (which no legal entity expects you to do AFAIK), but then there's also maximization by being decent and by doing everything properly (to which no legal entity also has nothing to sneeze at). So the maximization doesn't have to be the kind of grab your company by the throat kind of maximization.
Why are people so loyal to one browser? Where is it written that one has to be married to a specific browser and shun all others? A common thread I hear is that certain browsers are slow and don't feel fast (which is something you can partially fix by adding additional RAM to your machine and running the browser on an SSD). OP shuns Chrome but forgets there is more competition than previous years where the main three contenders were IE, Firefox and Chrome. Now we have Brave, Vivaldi, Qups, Iridium browser, Ungoogled-chromium[1], Tor Browser Bundle, Waterfox, Palemoon, Comodo Dragon, and a few other flavors of Chrome exist out there but are very buggy and unsecure and not updated often. Personally I run several browsers and isolate my sessions with them - so one for Facebook, one for Twitter, another for shopping, etc (Just to make sure there is no cross-talk between the various services I use).

I was assuming they were concerned about you being charged more than the cost of providing the insurance. If the supposed dystopia is indeed merely the reality where everyone gets charged the cost of providing the service I have to ask how exactly you think things work right now.
Yeah, there's a lot of new lingo when you get started with synth interfaces (both from the design and usage perspectives). One of the goals I had for the new user interface was to start integrating more visualizations as a means of giving users feedback on what they're doing.

When you get started out, you just want to mess around an gain an intuitive feel for how to use something and what knobs do. Unfortunately many soft-synths miss out on that user feedback (since it's hard to do right).

>If Middletown’s police department collected only about 1 percent of its revenue from fees and fines, our model predicts it would solve 53 percent of its violent crimes and 32 percent of its property crimes. But if Middletown’s police department instead collected 3 percent of its revenue from fees and fines, our model predicts that clearance rates would fall to 41 percent for violent crimes and 16 percent for property crimes. That’s a stark drop of 12 and 16 percentage points, respectively.

I want to see this broken down in terms of business days between crime and someone being charged.

I have a suspicion that the correlation is being diluted by all the open and shut "guy A punches guy B and gets charged with assault and battery because everyone in the bar saw him do it" cases that don't require any investigating (other than possibly collecting statements) types of violent crime that will get "solved" regardless of how much time the police spend collecting fines.

The crux quote from the article is "Police departments that collect more in fees and fines are less effective at solving crimes."
Competition and free market is not always the best solution to all the problems. In this case, what if all insurance companies are allowed to build such profiles? They all rely on that creepy data hoarder that built the shitty profile on you.

Hacking Back: Simply a Bad Idea
The two articles at issue here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right_to_keep_and_bear_arms (redirect from "Gun rights") and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gun_control definitely put a different complexion on the subject -- or at least very closely related subjects -- and it seems like someone searching for "Gun rights" would probably be better served by being shown the first article.

So I think you're right to be skeptical here. On the other hand, after a scan of each, I see two plausible reasons that the "Gun control" article might be elevated.

One, it's somewhat longer, with more references and cross-links (it even has a "See also" link to the "Gun rights" article).

Two, superficially, the "Gun control" article is a bit more internationally focused. The title of the "Gun rights" article is straight out of the U.S. Constitution. The appearance doesn't really hold up under scrutiny -- they both spend similar shares of their content on U.S. stuff -- but it might make a small difference.

Regardless of the reason, it's definitely good to pay attention to this sort of thing.

Ported a Web back-end service from Java to NodeJS/Typescript: 40% less code,...
We just finished porting one of our Cloud Web Backend (video collaboration platform for Machine Learning) from Java 8/Jetty to NodeJS / TypeScript.

1) 40% less code. Size does matter, simple scales better.

2) Cleaner code design: Functional first, OO as needed, no more Class-For-Everything induced contortionism.

3) Cleaner module public API: intent driven function with related types, class often as a module implementation details (when needed).

4) Better typing: TypeScript modern structural typing model reduce typing friction while maximizing expressiveness.

5) More maintained library community. Suprisingly we found npm libraries (the good ones) better maintained than their counter part with simpler/cleaner API (google sdk, opencv, ..)

6) Much fewer files: No more 1-1 between module and file. Same module file can export all needed for a service, functions, const, and types, and can even re-export external module structure.

7) Same advanced "enterprise/CRUD/..." feature set, "AOP" like with decorators for RBAC and perf instrumentation, full DAO and Service layer fully reimplemented (with much less Class).

8) Maximum code reuse between server, micro-services (also in TS), and client (also in TS).

9) Ironically, orchestrating advanced concurrency in nodejs can be better achieved than in Java standard programming, as nio/async is ubiquitous, async/await/promise is simply powerful.

10) Did some domain-specific benchmarking, and while Java is about 2x faster on a single concurrency mode, node.js was 2x once turning concurrency to 100.

Can probably make Java scale with quite a bit of work, but even if Java vs NodeJS perf is a wash, the value above are too important to ignore.

After 20 years of Java, we are starting all our new #BigApp enterprise/cloud projects with nodejs/typescript now. The only caveat now is to fight clichés.
> if their parents didn’t think it was beneficial

Did you miss that bit? The point of the comparison is to highlight the obviously fallacious reasoning that underlies the idea that someone's participation in something means it's beneficial to them.
Oh. Thanks, I learned something today.
I think the biggest problem comes from supporting external displays. For me to fully swap to iOS as a development platform (ignoring missing software currently) I would need to be able to plug into a larger display at some point, and have a way of controlling apps on that display without using touch at all.
If you do everything perfect, it's a completely thankless job.
I'm pretty sure most people switched to Chrome because it was a better browser, not because they wanted Google to have more information about their browsing habits.

That's just a few different shades of "weird" as a person.

The resume is all the recruiter knows about you at that moment. Do you really want any "WTF"/"weird" spots in it? This is setting up the board for the recruiter to make the (subconscious) deduction "weird resume" -> "this may be a weird person". They may or may not do it, but it surely won't get your resume any points.

No it wasn't, really. Have you actually experienced this or are you retelling some long-read from New Yorker?

People are not rational. They don't make decisions based on information presented to them. They mostly just repeat whatever opinion they perceive to be popular, usually without even asking themselves if they believe it or not. Propaganda is not about making people think something. Propaganda is about making people think that most of other people think so.

I've had a parrot since I was 8. They are basically perpetual two year olds. He has a sense of humor though. He would call the dog to the cage, throw food at him and laugh.. sometimes with a British accent. Not sure where that came from.

Fun fact about parrots, they can teach another parrot to talk, but that parrot can't teach another.

Also don't consider getting a parrot unless you understand it is a 30-50 year commitment that takes active daily social interaction. They are great but they are a big commitment.

Side note, it tooke twenty years to actually witness him sleeping.
