And lazarus (ie. free Pascal) will compile Turbo Pascal code without a lot of effort. Was quite amazed to resurrect a discrete event simulation I first wrote on VAX Pascal, ported to Turbo Pascal (and wrote my own replacement to the FORTRAN SPURT libraries) and then used a fair bit till about 1990. Fired it up (from the 5 1/4 disks copied some years ago) and had it running in a few minutes, except that it had a range error that I oddly never spotted with Turbo Pascal that had to be fixed first. (And my link with Delphi, applied for a job, didn't get it but they saw Pascal on my resume and said, we'll we've got some Delphi code that needs extending...)

Doesn't this rely on the CPU prefetching the memory to cache? Do current CPUs from Intel&AMD detect access patterns like this successfully? I.e. where you're accessing 64-element slices from a bigger array with a specific stride.
Awareness that free content won’t exist in a world where everyone uses ad blocker?

I sometimes find ads annoying when, fir example, they change the layout. But I leave it in by default.

What I don’t understand is what you think you have to gain from advertising ad blockers? If people subsidize your entertainment, shouldn’t you be happy?
I just took a job taking over for a retiring guy in a factory and he wrote everything in vb6 and ladder logic which I swear looks exactly like Delphi. Ladder logic itself is annoying as hell to work with but I do like the little bits of Delphi mixed in for the complicated math stuff.

The other guy wrote everything in gcode macros using notepad.

Lots of memories though. Giant Enterprise applications we created 20 years ago.

Have to admit I really prefer go and rust and python though. I think I still have all those Dr Dobbs in my basement too. :)
His work is definitely worth a careful study.
It’s not the browsers. It’s the single-page apps.

I can have 50 HN or readthedocs tabs open in Firefox with negligible memory impact. But two to three tabs of apps (say, Gmail and Trello) or a handful of over-engineered news and blog articles, and it’s swap city plus beach balls from CPU usage. And that’s WITH ad blocking on.

On Mac, Safari is the least awful offender, but the bar is pretty low.
Yep. Also spectrum doesn't seem to have clients for neither windows nor android, how is it a good choice for open online community?
I mean, they're still doing that. Amazon is still planning on staffing up their existing NY offices, just to the tune of 5k new jobs instead of 25k.

The big dog and pony show was about asking for major tax benefits. They're still welcome to open a giant LIC office, they just won't get showered with a tax windfall for it. That's Amazon's decision that it wasn't worth it.
The difference is that ai is scaleable.

Web of trust. Your results and how much you trust given text is based on who gave it to you. You assign trust to people you know, then it's a small world effect and recursive trust calculation based on who they trust.

Centralization won't work. Whether something is good or bad or fake must be subjective and based on your personal network / your beliefs. Otherwise, long term, I don't see how you could avoid dystopia.
> Because there are no analytics in Steps I will never validate whether any of the above were good decisions. Except that it’s obvious they were good decisions. Because they put you, the potential user, first. And us, the developer, last.

You know, that's kinda selling yourself short... I'd say you're putting your users as well as your own common sense and craftsmanship first, instead of throwing random shit together, and then waiting for analytics to tell you if it's a table, and if the surface is even. I applaud that.
One of the major selling points of neural networks is that you can model/learn relationships that are very hard to explicitly write down. Also keep in mind that neural networks often work with floating point values to scale input values. Sure, you can write down these floating point values in a diagram, but the numbers themselves will not tell you why they have the magnitude that they have.

With that being said, there is research happening that tries to find better tools to understand the reasoning of neural networks. And sometimes we might actually see and understand a general decision pattern of a NN that we could adopt for a simpler model. But in many cases it will not be possible to come up with a simpler model because some phenomena have an intrinsic complexity.
Yes, that's my experience as well. Once you step out of tech bubble you'll encounter countless small and even mid-sized businesses that could greatly benefit from rather simple CRUD apps and solutions that might seem very obvious to you.

Or in other, more specific words (and I have no affiliation with the product): Showing them how to use something like Airtable and setting up a simple template for them could change their world.
Wow..that error message is an ultimate blast-from-the-past.

How appropo it's a website that's throwing it now.
I didn't read 'Linux' in your text. Sorry. Hope something comes out soon.
In my experience, not so much? You'll need to worry if you're working on tasks that touch the same corner of the codebase, but larger teams tend to correlate with larger codebases, meaning that's not necessarily more likely.

That sort of XP style development also tends to come hand-in-hand with near-constant pair programming. So even if the conceptual limit is "5 sets of committers", that's still double the actual team size. And in practice, the cross-pollination that comes with swapping pairs every day or every few days means there's less of a cognitive load to needing to be aware of what's going on, since chances are either you or your pair already has context.
You might stop enjoying it when it burns you out, though.
For perspective, 219 pages amounts to about a railway novel in a day, or about two ~800-page fantasy doorstoppers in a week. At a rule of thumb of about a page per minute for light reading, it's just under four hours: a hefty investment, but well within the realm of possibility. High compared to the general population, but table stakes for a book club or otherwise avid reader.

I'd've easily doubled or tripled that over the summer as a teenager.
Ah, interesting, I never realized!

The sooner ad revenue nosedives, the sooner someone will figure out micro-payments for content, the happier I will be to know the full cost of what I'm paying for content, rather than opaquely giving up my privacy.
Collabora Online 4.0 released
This off-topic debate started because of the assertion that it's the vocal minority that have rejected Amazon. The discussion on industrial animal cruelty for cheap produce is an example of how the wants of the majority doesn't always produce the best outcome for the well-being of other people, creatures, and the environment.

Regardless of peoples eating lifestyles it's undeniable that factory farms which produce most of the economically accessible meat are little concerned about animal welfare or the environment. The public on this matter also are least concerned about these matters related to the meat they buy off supermarket shelves, only when it's a video of a 'cute' animal being abused. It is only the minority of people in this instance that take a principled stance, if the silent majority did care we wouldn't be producing so much factory farmed meat after years of publicizing the abuse in the media.

I'm not a vegan but the way you characterize anyone who has a 'minority view' as some radical that only wants to cause problems is the attitude that allows corporations to operate it's abuse of worker standards and public funding to no one else's gain but themselves.
Even with that in mind, the W3C spec adds unnecessarily verbose syntax fluff.

The complicated business of funding open source software development
Any mention of Delphi always brings back fond memories of my first job. We were doing amazing things with Clipper at the time, with a bit of Turbo Pascal on the side. Then windows took root and the world opened up with promises from Visual Objects and Dephi - but VB ended up the winner and that was the end of that.

We would play with Delphi and SmallTalk just for fun and there was always a Dephi fanboi around.

Despite these 'primitive' tools we were so much more productive back then - it's quite sad where we have ended up. We would pump out wonderful apps even in the days before we could get our hands on a relational database. dBase files, VSAM files and even trusty CODASYL did the job without any fuss.
Rain/snowfall is limited to a small(ish) number of days, while meltwater is on a predictable 12-month cycle. With rain that just flows down the mountain, you get a few days of far too much water, and the rest is dry.

The glacier (and snow) average out flow over time. It acts as a natural holding pool.
And if countries actually applied some of those rules, they'd have fewer problems with EU immigrants.
Because I've done tracking like that for several years, lots of services are still doing it this way and because rel="noopener" or rel="noreferrer" is the way to go if you want to mask the referrer. Even Google recommends to do it that way[0].

If you are not using it for tracking, there is no point in doing it like this after all.

We have come to such a low point of moral thinking that “who will think of the children?” has become nothing but a meme. But teenage suicide and psychological ills of all kinds are at record record highs, so perhaps it is worth our while to think of the children after all.

So a display is simply a device you plug into some pins on the computer to format the computer’s state in a more human-friendly way. You could do the exact same thing with a Turing machine.
It should only cause a problem for pages using “targetText” as an anchor or id where someone would link to “page#targetText”

I would expect that it’s possible for both to work since Chrome’s hack requires the equal sign and its parameters. So with no equal, works as spec. With equal works with hack (that will likely make it into spec).

Even when a page has the targetText anchor and receives the text link param, I think the desired user behavior is to link to the text, not the anchor.
This is terrifying.

Unless it's designed with safeguards in place from the start to protect against advertising/tracking abuses, I would rather this wasn't in my browser at all.

Last thing I want is for a random website to hijack my bluetooth speaker and start blaring out an advert at me.
Why is it wrong to fear nuclear? It's damage can obviously be catastrophic, it's not banned, it's avoided. It's like air travel, while one or several journeys can go without incident, the few instances that do happen are costly. Mistakes with nuclear don't go unpunished.
I have found home on .NET/Java as the best approximation of it, but do agree it could be better.
Correct on your first point. I do not mean I learned the specific version published by Bourbaki, but rather in the modern mathematical style (hence the "a la", as opposed to 19th century hand waving style that nearly all undergraduate first-courses do).

And by the modern style, I meant starting out with analysis, defining the axioms of what measures are, demonstrating the existence of nonmeasurable sets with the axiom of choice, etc. IIRC, the course did rely on Borel algebras for its buildup, but did not openly buildup from sigma algebra machinery.
No reports of riches yet. Although a few people have shared with me products they've built, that were inspired by the email.

I personally tried out an outsourced sales venture based on one request. I made around 1k in revenue the first month doing that. I found that my overhead was high and it was a competitive landscape to find clients.

At this point in time, I'm just playing the messenger. I'm not trying to get people rich. Although, I think in the future that may be a metric I start to measure myself by. Hope this helps :)
You are not wrong (about what is on the standards). But you are being downvoted because everyone who did implement AMP in the real world, did so for the SEO benefits.

Material design and minimalism probably have a lot of strong theory behind them, but the cargo culting around them often leads to worse UX. I think a lot of companies reach the "dedicated UX team/person" stage before the "careful A B testing of user flow" stage.
Do you believe inside the next 2000 years they will recover? The underlying premise is not that climate has not changed before. The premise is that there is no strong belief the cyclic nature of glacial retreat will be seen in any sensible timeframe (tens of thousands of years)

My First Few Months as a Software Engineer at the BBC
This is far too narrow a view. It's not a question of whether to dynamically link or not, but WHERE and HOW to dynamically link.

Think about it: If you were to force absolutely everything to be statically linked, your KDE app would have to include the ENTIRE KDE library suite, as well as the QT libraries it's based on, as well as the X window libraries those are based on, etc etc. You'd quickly end up with a calculator app that's hundreds of megabytes.

But let's not stop there, because the linkage to the kernel is also dynamic, which is a no-no. So every app would now need to be linked to a specific kernel, and include all the kernel code.

Now imagine you upgraded the kernel. You'd have to rebuild EVERY SINGLE THING on the system to build with that new kernel, or a new version of KDE or QT or X or anything in between.

The kernel membrane is a form of dynamic linkage for a reason. Same goes for IPC. Dynamic linkage is useful and necessary; just not to such a microscopic level as it once was due to size constraints.

The key is not to eliminate dynamic linkage, but rather to apply it with discretion, at carefully defined boundaries.
Nice, they are in control , so they can generate money out of air.
I know in the technical sense, calling it Amazons rejection is accurate, but in reality this was a power play of a different kind from the people of the city.

While I've not found a consistent stance among people I talked to almost everyone found it at least troubling how Amazon could wield this kind of power. The people who opposed it were vocal and diligent. I'd argue NYC rejected Amazon.

More importantly, while cities compete for companies or industries all the time, it seems this really highlighted the kind of leverage a big company can hold over even a huge metropolis.
This is indeed very useful feature to share specific content. I built larynx 'A tool to share content along with voice' with similar intention. In larynx a user can share screenshot of the particular snippet along with voice.

I wanted to build a similar future in the feature where clicking the link would take the user directly to the snippet, of-course it would work only inside larynx apps; but with chromium penetration Google can implement this feature seamlessly.

Yes, thank goodness for FreePascal/Lazarus.

Also have the Professional Edition and would update if only they took the macOS platform seriously.
Again with this update, like the previous few, there are zero improvements for macOS.

Really regret to ever have invested any time (and money as I bought several updates) into their FireMonkey platform. It looks bad on macOS for not using native controls and it looks bad on Windows because the fonts are blurry.

With macOS only being 64 bits around the corner and openGL being declared end of life, one would expect to see some movement or improvements. Nope.

Certainly it will increase property values but I don’t think it will be absentee capital as the demand will be driven by something that requires occupancy, working at hq2.

Unless that somehow implies that the document is to be seen as a piece of art, my opinion stands, that it reads like a low-quality blog post.
Those are strong words, "fundamentally unsolvable problems of decentralized governance".

I'm not dis/agreeing with your scenario: I also think it's quite likely that this JPMorgan crypto would ossify into a de facto centralized network.

But the phrase "fundamentally unsolvable" feels like it needs some harder proof or logical explanation. There are many instances of (and variations on) "decentralized governance", like open-source projects, technical or social organizations, etc. Would you say all those attempts are doomed to failure? (Or maybe that they could continue to operate despite being potentially unstable/flawed based on fundamentally unsolvable problems. Or perhaps that they all tend to become centralized.)

Thinking of attempts at decentralized governance in a larger sense (including but beyond specific applications in the crypto sphere), it does seem that most of them are failing due to some inherent structural issues. I wonder whether it can be demonstrated that all such decentralized governance systems are fundamentally flawed (similar to Gödel's incompleteness theorem..?).
