Right - or even trickier... Imagine Google manages to block extensions from inserting <img> tags that reference other domains as a way of exfiltrating data... There are so many other ways to do it:

Say you have an extension that ONLY wants access to mail.google.com. It might feel safer because it can't load in any third party scripts. But it can just as easily SEND data from your account as an email which it promptly deletes.

Same goes for LinkedIn, Facebook, HN, any interactive website can be used to exfiltrate data.
One of the services I really liked is Google’s url shortening. I wonder why they discontinued it?
I suggest downloading a silent ring tone. I got one for a dollar. The silent ringtone is my default ringtone. I went into my contacts and changed the ringtone associated with them to be one that makes noise. I no longer am bothered by scam calls as a result.
The biggest bottle-neck to any game streaming service is latency and I've some major doubts that they're going to be able to resolve it unless the client is located really close-by to servers. I messed around with Steam InHome Streaming, Xbox Streaming and PS RmotePly a bunch from work where we have the same ISP as I do at home. The speed between the two is around 6-700mbit and yet the added latency can still be felt and I don't live very far from work.

From my own experience the extra delay can be tolerable in a few game genres, especially on console-optimised games where, to my knowledge, developers optimise controls for higher latency due to a possibility of a slower tv. Obviously PC FPSes and the like suffer the worst. It does work really well on the same LAN, though: I decided to use a tiny SteamLink for my living room gaming needs instead of messing around with long HDMI cables and the added fiddliness of having to directly use the desktop launch games.

I wouldn't really sign up and pay for a service operated by Google, tho.

By the way, while a future affordable game streaming service that works well might lower the bar of entry to the hobby, I have a serious fear of such a thing enabling the worst parts of the video game industry to take over. The software-as-a-service model and renouncing the last vestiges of actually owning a copy of a game seems like a terribly tempting way to turn the entire industry off of actual creativity and onto even more "whale-chasing".

I take issue with BSD/MIT because of situations like the PS4. Sony took FreeBSD, heavily modified and improved it to make it into the OS for their new console, and upstreamed (afaik) absolutely nothing, nor did they donate a cent. They were perfectly within their rights to do this due to the license, but holy shit it was a dickish move.

Linux would not be in such a strong position, IMO, if they were not GPL. So many companies have been forced to reluctantly release things like drivers for their hardware because they wanted to leverage the power of linux in their products. BSDs will never get contributions like that.

For video decoders though, contributions are less important and so I think BSD is a good idea. We desperately need AV1 to succeed, and that means everyone and their dog using it.

Many. For me the biggest one is code readability. I am very, very happy with their choice of NASM syntax.

The idea behind intrinsics is that you use one, or several assembly instructions in your code base, letting the compiler manage registers for you. But (especially these days) there is rarely a single instruction that makes your code go faster: you have to write entire large blocks of assembly. That is much better done using assembly than intrinsics.

Tell them you'll call them back, and call the number on the back of your card -- even without a case number, there should only be a limited number of things wrong with your account and you probably want to fix all of them :).

Otherwise the next scam will be to put an obviously-fraudulent transaction on a card, then phish for the rest of your details so they can get cash, rather than just charge-backs.
They're universally regarded as a dangerous, difficult to use feature (yes, even by C programmers) and are no longer required in C11. VLAs can have nasty side effects like stack corruption and are a leaky abstraction at best. You can't expose a VLA's size through the ABI, for instance.

Then, in the web sphere you'd have to focus on PHP (in Germany). But then again, looking at the details, you will realize that those job offers ask for developers who are fluent in: php, JavaScript, css, mysql, Photoshop (!), wordpress (!), etc. Reads like a job offer from the beginning of 2000.

But the sheer numbers cannot be ignored: Java / c# >> php >> Python >> Ruby/Rails >>>> Clojure... (Just one example)

Now you'd have to go into the details again to answer the question if you'd want to work at the problem set that is described in the job offer (how sophisticated, what kind of domain, how challenging,...)
We know in small scale sleep lab studies that low sleep leads to changes in emotional processing (one of the functions of REM sleep is to tune your emotional regulation), so that at least offers a plausible mechanism of action.

When has Google succeeded in doing this? To me, it seems like Google burns a lot of money on a project just to deprecate it a few years later.
One of the main issue is no error checking on this kind of "allocation" (it's the same as alloca()). This issue also somehow exists with a fixed size buffer, but at least you get a much more predictable outcome (you have full control on the stack usage, unless you have a user controlled recursion).
"To maintain a consistent energy level, 5+ small snacks is better than 3 large meals."

Anecdotally, that's not been my experience, except in the time periods when I've been transitioning between feeding on that short schedule and feeding once a day.

I recognize that this experience is wholly anecdotal, but the only time that I've felt "paralyzed with starvation" is not when I am actually in starvation mode (that is, 48 or so hours of not eating, which I do every couple of months), but rather when I've been eating often and switch to eating less often.

That is to say, when I used to have candy and donuts and juice as part of my diet, then I would occasionally crash and lots of smaller meals prevented that crash. In that case, your advice is good.

In other cases, it doesn't fit my experience.

When I am in a period where I am eating a single large meal every 24 hours or so (mostly rice and beans and some other plants with a lot of fat), then I don't feel those crashes at all. I don't eat outside of that meal except for a short period of time before or after. I occasionally feel hungry, but I generally on-point mentally, and certainly not "paralyzed with starvation".

If I get out of that pattern (usually because I am traveling or around folks who prevent that kind of eating from happening) I will often need to go through a longer fast to get back into that daily eating schedule.

So my hypothesis (untested, of course) is that most folks have never gone more than 24 hours without eating, so if they are crashing after 3-5h then that's specific to their diet and not a universal human constant.

> They look pretty damn similar to most people.

And indeed, many of the examples given will likely be settled under audit instead of criminal cases; Wrote off jet skis? Oh, that isn't allowed, but I used them for business meetings, to show clients 1st hand example policies; limited criminal intentionality there.
heh, no not for that. miscommunication.
> An example can make this concrete.

Indeed it can. Why, if there were really effects as large as you claim -- where several hundred thousands of dollars of value are lost in a single incident -- then society would recognize that fact. We would have formed "Fire Departments" consisting of professionals skilled at minimizing the damage. We would have created "Homeowner's Insurance" as a way of distributing the harmful effects throughout society instead of concentrating it on a few. It is precisely because we DO observe these behaviors that we can nod and say "Yep, those 'outliers' are to be expected.

On the other hand, if you had never heard a story about an entire house being destroyed in a single incident and someone tried to tell you that the statistics showed it was possible, even likely... wouldn't you stop to ask questions? Wouldn't you feel like a well-done paper on the subject needed to address possible mechanisms by which the information might be less well-known?
I don't disagree, I find support across the board for Google products dismal. But isn't it better that they say 'we don't do support' than hold out hope that they might or provide spotty support? That way developers and users of the products, including TensorFlow, know what they're getting into. For the free projects that actually do provide good support, that's excellent and kudos to the developer/community that do so... they seem to be the exception these days.

I compare it to the 'old days' of software: it used to be common to have a phone number to call. Then it became email only and people complained there should be a support phone number. Then it was $0.99 apps and maybe you got a support forum. Now in the era of freemium, you're lucky if you get an online community support forum... and people complain when nobody monitors it. When you move to free, the support budget goes to $0 which leaves developers to shoulder support in addition to everything else. Unsurprisingly, many don't want to do this. If you're willing to pay, sure you can still get anything you want (up to and including on-site support for enterprise stuff if you have deep enough pockets) but as long as the default support model is clear at least one can make an informed decision. Support is one of those things that the $300+ (phone support), $30+ (email support), $10- (forum?), $0 (good luck) pays/paid for after all...

Ah, I thought that might've been part of it since you brought up the comparison to eval; just wanted to clarify that there are other options for avoiding reliance on external subresources.

which is hard if it was downloaded dynamically at runtime

Not sure if you mean something other than what this sounds like (I haven't used CF Workers), but just to clarify further, the option I mentioned causes emscripten to emit one single JS file with no external code downloaded at run time.

(In any case, that performance optimization alone certainly sounds like a good reason for the separation.)
This seems to be a test that may turn into a future cloud product? Google has a lot of Pops which provide great latency for users, If they start filling these pops with gpus so that companies like ubisoft or epic or $gamecompany can pay for the infrastructure and let users pay them a subscription and then I don't have to drop 500+ dollars every year to stay relevant with AAA titles, maybe it all works out?

Oh it is, but let me tell you: it's beautiful. http://krikzz.com/forum/index.php?topic=8045.0
I know where you are coming from, and I am sympathetic to Googlers who just want to do a quick test.

But "Google" means something specific in regards to quality for Billions of people, and you start to have a responsibility to the brand regarding dependability at some point if you want to do things under the Google Banner.

But it's so easy to give these projects their own name, branding, and websites while they are in this tech test phase. If they hit on something great, then they should absolutely fold it in with the rest of the G Suite, but until they know why not sell to people with out the Google connection to see how it does?
All of this would be resolved if Google called these projects experimental.

This is a significant distinction. It's also a massive deterrent. Who builds on experimental? Google isn't incentivized to do this. So, everything new Google puts out is hence, experimental.

It's not an old joke. You're just getting tired of it.

You're basically invalidating all of these engineers who believe in a thing called "trust," and undervaluing it with a statement like this.

It is described as antifeminist by most feminists. And by me, for what it's worth.

I think you're burying a lot in "proper controls". And quoting a Bush administration official suggesting it's all about "individual choice" as if it were a neutral statement is not even vaguely giving a fair picture.

Under capitalism, the whole point of market signals like wages and prices is to shape individual choice. So it's tautological to suggest that accounting for individual choice proves that there's no sexism embedded in the system.

The reasonable feminist critique of approaches like this is that women don't just magically prefer part-time, family-friendly work any more than they just happened to prefer to be homemakers through most of history. In that view, we have been removing structural impediments to a fair society for centuries, and the work is not done yet.
These are the sorts of projects that make sense to me for Google to be playing around with. Namely, they are highly experimental and pushing what might even be possible, but have the potential to (especially if Google shows success) suddenly boom into a large market since games have a high demand.

It also makes sense for Google to push for this sort of usage since it's more data going through pipes. Data they can analyze in some way, make money, etc.

The Google projects that make less sense to me are projects that are largely about data retention, long term stability, and are generally considered solved problems. I.e. email and office suites.
The TIOBE index is hot garbage, and always has been.

Even so, this article is also pretty bad. Nowhere does the author define what he means by "popularity", which is one of the key problems all of these popularity contests suffer.

If we say "Language X is more popular than language Y?" What does that mean? Answers could be any of:

* Total extant corpus of X is larger than Y.

* Number of people who know X is larger than Y.

* Amount of open source code in X is greater than Y.

* Number of people currently writing X (how much?) is greater than Y.

* Number of people who want to be writing X is greater than Y.

* Number of jobs available for writing X is greater than Y.

* Number of people talking about X is greater than Y.

These are all wildly different metrics but all have reasonable claims to represent "popularity" and/or are what some of these rankings claim to show.

To do anything useful, you really need to know what problem the reader is trying to solve and pick a metric that helps that problem. Is the reader trying to decide what language to learn to find a job today? To get ahead of the curve and be an expert in five years? To discover a new exciting language? To choose a language to use for a large, conservative project? A small ambitious one?
I look at it as a trade-off between short-term freedom and long-term freedom.

BSD gives more short-term freedom. GPL trades some short-term freedom to attempt to better preserve long-term freedom.

To me that trade is a reasonable strategy, but I also think BSD has a hidden(?) benefit on a different front in the battle for openness. If you have a libre implementation of something but nobody uses it, it's not much use. If the availability of BSD-licensed code induces a corporation to use that instead of developing their own proprietary technology, it might be a net win, especially if that big corporation has a lot of influence over users.
