Someone reported that Google Hangouts couldn't be full screen while using Windows Firefox, so I took out the EC2 instance I used to try to debug, and found that the full screen function was not called at all...

In the end, I look up their obfuscated JS code for a long time and found that the code directly wrote: If it is Firefox and Windows, it will not call the full screen... Simply...

A Touch of Topological Quantum Computation in Haskell Pt. II
Ember as you guessed, is not for simple apps. So an equivalent set of React libraries would have to do everything that Ember does---even when you are building an app that does not require all those parts.

It's not a fair comparison to talk about a simple mobile-only app, and complain that Ember is too large for bloating the bundle with things you will not use.
Standard FPGAs can be usable in space depending on where they are. Consumer stuff can do OK in LEO, especially if you have some sort of watchdog or voting system.
> what keeps law enforcement from signing up their own personnel as distributors?

This only catches the end users, and that's not a great use of police resources. The police would much rather target the distributors, not the end users picking up a small amount of drugs for personal use.
Tiny patch to OpenSSH, but it'll get onto millions of boxes eventually.
How do you even recruit someone living that far away for a (relatively) low paying, low skill job? 2 hours get's you almost the entire way across the state I live in, people living that far away have often never even visited my city once in their lives. Why would someone who lives as far away as San Jose (apparently just 1hr 30min from SF) be tuned in to the local job boards in SF when there are plenty of job opportunities in their back yard?

I can understand why people with valuable skillsets are willing to balance the cost of commuting from their dream homestead to their place of work but I can't see how this system works for those on the bottom rungs of the societal ladder.
What do you think was omitted that would change that quote?

In case anyone was curious, there isn't a centralized list of everything yet. All the chargemasters are posted on the individual hospital websites.
I think it was better, but maybe less addicting. Quirky blogs, when you wanted to know something very often you were linked to a professor's page, more text, less interaction. Though there still were forums, there was less of the comment board stuff everywhere. Less emphasis on social. Also there was some really bad design. HTML was trying to also style things and people would get really cute with colors and animation effects. It was pretty tacky. I guess this is after the time when it was academic, but before Facebook.
Pretty sure they're talking about themselves.

In my previous setup, I had a function that displayed a menu when I started bash, listing all my "main" directories. So each time you started a session you just had to press 1-7 to go where you wanted.
This article is ridiculous. Yeah, SF is expensive, but $80k+ is a ridiculously large income for front-of-house service staff. When I first started working as a software engineer in SF, I was making $70k/year and I survived just fine. I got roommates and spent <$900 on rent. Obviously, I increased my earnings over time and as soon as I could moved into a 1br. I now pay right about average, which is more than I'd like but which I make do with.
I suppose you could, but all FPGA manufacturers sell space versions of their FPGAs. Do you know of anyone using non-space-grade?

011.video free video editing web app
Are you really looking for the easiest video editor online for beginners ?

Give a try to https://011.video, it's free and really easy to use, even for dummies.

You don't need working hours around video timeline to create your own video. It works fine with Chrome browser on PC or mobile.
You may want to fix the link to https://medium.com/dialogue-and-discourse/anatomy-of-propaga... - yours requires logging in (and having an account).
I think in the tech capital, sitting around waiting for someone to seat you, come by and take your drink order, come by and take your food order, bring your food, and check on it (if lucky) is sort of... antiquated. It feels Victorian or something - good food is good food, regardless of who serves it. You’re paying to be pampered, but if the economics of being pampered don’t work then maybe it’s something people can give up?

Go sit down, order from kiosk at table (or from kiosk up front). Panera for instance pretty much does this now.
Trying to understand what was written: did you mean "en masse," not "on mass?"
Thank you for your offer. No offense, but that would be of no use for me. I learned that external outsourcing of development tasks is not effective at all if you want to focus on delivering quality that customers really love.

Another point is that my market is really not obvious at all and I want to have competitors as late as possible. Currently there are none I know of. Only competitors who solve parts of it which existed before me anyway.
lobster.rs - invite only tech site. More focused in tech than hacker news and less business/troll comments.

tildes.net - similar to reddit but with a heavy focus on no memes/fluff posts

RED - great music and general forum with next to no bait/troll posts.

There are lots more but those are the ones I personally enjoy.
When did I ever say that the Chinese cared about censorship or surveillance? I know you think you're culturally enlightened by bringing up this tired argument. You're not.

Anyone who's been to China knows that the average person in China doesn't particularly care about privacy, we're not arguing that here. What I'm saying is that regardless of whether someone cars about it, it does affect their behavior.
It's his job now (he makes money off of ticket booking commissions, plus probably some other stuff). I'm sure he also gets feedback from public information sources, travelers, and train enthusiasts.
You'd think there would be a breaking point somewhere around "we could pay 25% less and still attract top talent to relocate to literally anywhere in the Western world". The cost of living in the SF bubble has long since passed the point of being insulting and the salaries being commanded by those who are driving the continued growth could go so far in other major metro areas that most employees would think they're living like kings even with such a paycut.
Check the comment I left on the sibling comment.

I'm trying op's system. I put the text files in a top level folder in dropbox. So any machine of mine can access them.

For iphone/ipad, I use Textor to quickly access and edit them. It's faster than the dropbox app, which requires taps to get to the right place and a further tap for edit mode. Textor is about as fast as on my computer.

I'm guessing android has an equivalent app.
the official party line is that the Cultural Revolution caused "the most severe setback and the heaviest losses suffered by the Party, the country, and the people since the founding of the People's Republic". many Communist party leaders suffered horribly at the hands of the Red Guards.

criticizing Mao is pretty dangerous but as far as I can tell it's pretty safe to criticize the Cultural Revolution.
$1500 is a steal in that area IMO. Most studios start at closer to $2000.
React SSR + Next.JS is easier to get up and running than React SSR + Express
Looks okay, but not sure about the use cases. Its slow and it's capacity advantage can be outmatched with numbers in existing platforms. A slow luxury cruise? Reconnaissance - but radar cross section would be too big. Am I missing something?

It was Alpher, Bethe, and Gamow's name on the paper ... I heard a story that they invited one of the authors just to get the A, B, G first letters of authors last names.
The cost distribution of this model and rapid scalability through decentralized ownership seems to make more sense as well.
Slow is fine for me. The ones I look at tend to have a slow but quality stream of posts. Encourages you to check just once a day and leave a few well thought out comments. The slowness also means your comments get read by more people before they get drowned out by the firehouse of memes and insults.

When I post something on tildes.net I see there are a lot of upvotes that come in over a few days so I know people are reading but when I post something on twitter I don't think anyone ever reads that unless they log in at the second I post it.
IIRC that phone had a worse battery life than the regular sized device due to the screen.
This is truly a Hell Worm
You and I are on much the same page, I just omitted much of that from my post to make it a more universal rejection of this trend. Your analysis is correct in that it is rapidly accelerating this process but even if it was removed, the inherent truth that there will no longer be a single mass culture to market mass media to rings true. They are boxed in no matter what direction they head in.
or perhaps implicit in the language of "I'm just your average guy" is that the central limit theorem applies.
"Stalin and the Scientists" by Simon Ing tells a very different story.

Many Soviet scientists were severely punished when they found themselves on the wrong side
of Communist dogma. Making empty statements was not possible if, for example, you disagreed with Lysenkoism. If you refused to swallow unscientific nonsense you ran a very real risk of some combination of losing your job, being shipped off to a labor camp and losing your life.

Fortunately, the Grievance Studies folks have not yet figured out how to construct a gulag.
LA has gotten a lot better over the past 10y compared to SF's rate of improvement, and is way bigger in population. I think LA has more innovation happening (especially food trucks, weird fusion cuisines, etc.) because you can take risks there.

Portland is great, too, for similar reasons.

All of them (and probably >10 more cities in the US) have world-class food across multiple cuisines.
After reading I've been wondering what some of the unique themes are which arise from the author being Chinese. Here's what I've thought of (Spoilers Ahead):

1. Tri-solaran civilization = chinese civilization in many ways:

Unlike say America, where technology has developed constantly, in tri-solaris technology develops only during "stable eras" and stops developing or regresses when too many suns are in the sky, or not enough suns are in the sky. Compare that to chinese history: periods of technology/cultural development interspersed with being conquered by "barbarians" or large civil wars.

Also tri-solarans are a pretty unforgiving culture, in one scene a tri-solaran king casually executes someone for failing to do their duty. Later in the series they import ideas like human rights from Earth.

2. The scene where tri-solaris wipes out the entire earth fleet with technology unknown to Earth seems pretty reminiscent of a lot of instances where one culture armed with a thousand spears meets another armed with a dozen guns. Earth comes into the exchange feeling confident too, perhaps reminiscent of the boxer rebellion.

3. Black and white thinking in the first book (tri solarans are evil vs tri solarans are gods) might be similar to the various ideological movements in china, from the cultural revolution to capitalism today.

You apparently literally don't see how high net worth individuals and speculators can drive up prices much faster than new construction can possibly keep up - remember, the demand side of price? Also, there are other forces at work on the supply side, like a bonkers property tax system which incentivizes never selling your home. But your tidy narrative is better for real estate developers, so let's blithely parrot it as often as possible.

Freedom of self-determination is what I think most people define as "freedom". If I redefine freedom, I'd argue I should use a different word, as it wont convey the same meaning to others. When our world is manipulated around us to control what we know and to extent what we think, we are in a cage (at least most of "us" are).
Copyright laws are what restrict the freedom to publish the source without the author's name or to copy or modify the source. Open-source licenses give some of those freedoms back, but, in some cases, not all of them.
I think we would be a bit better off if US restaurants felt more comfortable telling customers to take a hike. I'm entirely ok with restaurants that have no vegan/gluten free/whatever options and refuse substitutions.
> Since when libertarianism and human rights have been on the opposite sides?

I dunno about opposite, but certainly in opposition on certain points:
http://www.un.org/en/universal-declaration-human-rights/inde...

"Article 25.

(1) Everyone has the right to a standard of living adequate for the health and well-being of himself and of his family, including food, clothing, housing and medical care and necessary social services, and the right to security in the event of unemployment, sickness, disability, widowhood, old age or other lack of livelihood in circumstances beyond his control.
(2) Motherhood and childhood are entitled to special care and assistance. All children, whether born in or out of wedlock, shall enjoy the same social protection."

Obviously, this means taking from those who have to give to those who have not, which is pretty strongly opposed by the right-libertarians.

a bunch of the others also conflict with right-libertarian principles; like article 24 limits working hours and says I should get some paid vacation and 26 says elementary education should be free (and compulsory)
I agree with a lot of his points about the value of remote work, but the biggest one is that the labor pool is much much larger. This is such an advantage that I believe it outweighs the higher bandwidth conversations and the deep talent pool in the Bay area, but it does require reconfiguration of the company. Sharing of data, leveraging of online tools, trust in employees, adjustment to communication differences.

In fact, I don't know if you can take a company that is built onsite and revamp it to succeed in a 100% remote manner. Perhaps, if you replace one department at a time? I don't know, and haven't encountered any stories of such a transformation.

Anyway, congrats to the OP. I don't know if we need another remote job board, but heaven knows we need more remote jobs.
So my security knowledge is a bit lacking. Is there anything that would make using cwtch less secure than using Riochet by itself?
Here's a question: what mass media hit has taken hold in anywhere near to the same form that GoT has in the past 5 years? From my perspective, new noteworthy cultural touchstones like GoT and the Marvel Universe have ceased to exist since roughly 2012. GoT will end in a few months and while the Marvel Universe will continue, it operates on a certain inertia that has built since before the current status quo came into being. What show or other form of video IP will take their place? As of this moment, I see nothing currently on air or on the horizon.
this is sick. how did you figure out the numeric schemes and even have the idea to look where you did?
also the local far left does not believe that scarcity and prices are related, and attempts to block new housing on that basis. E.g., greedy developers and/or rich people will never "allow" prices to fall.

Your sentence is grammatically incorrect and I don't understand it. [Hi from Argentina! I also make a lot of mistakes. :)]

Can you explain it using a longer sentence? With a longer sentence sometimes it is easier to understand the question in spite of the errors. (An alternative is to post the question here in your native language, so perhaps autotranlation can help.]

I've lived in SF for 25 years, and eat out often. While I never visited this particular restaurant, as others have noted, 3.5 stars on Yelp in SF's hyper-competitive market is telling. 3.5 is maybe enough to keep the cheap place you go to across the street when you're lazy in business. Less than 4 stars isn't going to get enough people to make a reservation, travel across town and shell out $$$. We have over 4500 restaurants listed in Yelp, and roughly 7% turnover of openings/closings per year. It's physically impossible for anyone to eat at all, let alone a fraction, of the places here. Foodie places which are successful may be a big hit when they first open, but if they don't keep up the quality, they will die quickly as that crowd moves onto the next shiny thing. It takes a lot to stay in business here.

The way that some restaurants blame their success and failure on the high cost of labor makes about as much sense as when people review restaurants on Yelp and complain how surprised they were by the bill at the end of the night. It's a math problem. Other people are managing to balance their costs and revenue and stay in business.
It’s not immediate, but supply will catch up. If allowed.

Investors want to make money and with so much demand, will tolerate increasingly smaller margins to make even more money.
I am a Chinese, I agree with you. This book is consist of many wonderful "ideas" and bad-portray characters. In fact, IMHO, the characters in this book are only used to introduce those "ideas". But, those "ideas" are really amazing. This why some people love it, some think it is bad.
They are in the business of selling things, not deploying software updates, and sales are down.
> Running a restaurant is generally a very poor means of making a living as the author repeatedly points out.

This is a really awful way of reading this article.

I like restaurants. I like good food. I can buy into the argument that the cost of living is making it really hard for me to get good restaurants.
> You're saying a codebase of 5% JavaScript demands more JavaScript experience than a codebase of 100% JavaScript.

A codebase of 100% Javascript does not usually mean 100% written by the app developer. If you are coding in react for some basic app, like some basic crud with react using existing backend with Firebase, it almost only require you to learn the some basics of react and Javascript syntax, and fill in the template. You can also use other modules by just follow their documentation when you need some extra functionality.

However in Elm Ports we are required to pass async messages for everything which is much harder. I am OK with the boilerplate for the JSON encoder and stuff, but I have to wrap around my head for how to write a port for lots of basic web APIs.

Port is hard even for people that familiar with Javascript. There are plenty of experienced Javascript programmers willing to dive into the source code of Elm to write native modules to avoid ports even. https://www.reddit.com/r/elm/comments/81bo14/do_we_need_to_m...

In addition, even the 5% of Javascript will eventually leads to the full Javascript stack, where Elm, without an official recommend JS stack, feels more like additional choice as a part of the JS fatigue. Beginners ends up looking up on browserfy/gulp/webpack etc and figuring out a way to integrate Elm in.

> Seems like the argument is Elm isn't ideal if you're not a programmer

I program daily for machine learning, and I have used many programming languages. But Javascript is not the language that I want to dive in too much, which it is the main reason I learn Elm. If your requirement of being a programmer is having a job as a software developer, then I am not. But I think a language with an aim of going into education and scientific computing shouldn't limit itself to that. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uGlzRt-FYto

I enjoy Elm. It is one of my favourite programming language. But I have not gotten anything done with it mainly because of ports. If I am pursuing a career in front-end related development, I would dive into Javascript and build stuff. I understand the decisions from Evan and friends and I am just thankful for Elm as it is, there is no right for me to demand anything anyway.

Netapp has Kubernetes-as-a-Service that includes their own persistent volume. As a consultant I had it foisted on me for a project, but it worked pretty well - I never had to worry about storage - it just worked - so I guess I never realized it was "hard"? Definitely something I'm glad I let someone else manage.

I've read non-scholarly writings about surfers including behavior/etiquette in the water and found it interesting. I think it would be a worthwhile subject for research. Examining human behavior in niches can be illuminating to different and broader contexts.
