I agree with the author completely in regard to the low-effort articles simply rehashing Twitter threads. I'm not sure if fair use would even be taken into account in this case, but I feel like this isn't transformative, and it's aiming to provide a replacement product.

However, I disagree on thread readers. They provide attribution to the author, so a reader has just as much opportunity to click through to the author's page as they would within the default Twitter client.

Yes the thread reader is getting ad revenue from displaying the content, but this isn't really money that the author would have seen anyway. If anything, Twitter is the one getting ripped off, so it's in their interest to improve the native thread reading experience, to capture back that lost revenue. The author says that they're not providing any added value, but I think their value is the improved readability of the thread.

Overall I think she's discounting the improved readability that these sites provide. She mostly just mentions that they improve shareability, which for me is a secondary benefit at best.

Prodigy[1] had already been doing the EGA vector graphics thing for years before, so it wasn't that mind blowing. RIP was neat but most users weren't interested in switching BBS software, or terminal programs, just to see slower-than ANSI menus.

Also, the RIP paint program was not free, and the free alternatives weren't very good. It was neat but not different enough to catch on. Nothing like when I saw my first web page a couple years later.

Around the same time, someone attempted a more ambitious "BBS 2.0" called Excalibur [2] in '93 that also had vector graphics. Compared to a BBS with RIP it was way more impressive, more like the web would be.

A note on the values this program produces: most are implementation-defined (and some are generated in ways the exercise undefined behavior, it seems). Please, please, please don't rely on them being the same everywhere. If you're curious about your own machine, that's great, but don't be the person who hardcodes integer sizes or relies on chars being unsigned.

This is the 2nd data localisation law in past one year. The last one was for finance related data. And this one seems to be for eCommerce related data. So, I am confused on how do Google/Facebook figure in that discussion?

One of things I have noticed is that in India there is an increasing awareness about data. Indian government, like most of other government, is now getting over zealous with their data requests. But, if the data is not locally stored having companies comply is proving difficult. So, having companies store data locally is becoming increasingly necessary.

On the other hand, companies are stepping up their data collection measures. 7 out of 10 places ask for mobile numbers so that they can give you "free offers". Lot of mobile wallet companies give you "cash-back" in exchange for collecting data about your habits.

So, I doubt this is a net positive measure.

> but I shudder at the comparison between our living standards and the other so-called developed nations on every trip overseas or to Europe. And more so now than I did 20 years ago.

What do you mean by that? That the living standards in Japan became comparably higher? I can only speak about the comparison to Germany, but the only thing that comes to mind are japanese toilets. Other than that they are pretty similar in my experience, with a few small advantages for one country or the other in different areas.

E.g. Germany has way better building heating and isolation standards than most of what I have seen in Japan. On the other hand nearly every building in Japan has AC. This comes from the situation that Germany needs heating for about 6 months a year, no cooling for about 5 months and cooling only for about 1 month. Kansai region on the other hand only needs heating for about 4 months, but cooling for about 6.

> these apartments were in upscale areas, so it isn't really preventing anyone from moving in

Of course it's preventing them. It's one less apartment in an already airtight market. For every apartment not available for renting, all the other rents go up another bit. Or a big bit since you can easily charge double via Airbnb. This means without any regulation the rents could surge to at least 80% of what you can get via Airbnb. And since this would seriously hurt the city the government gets involved.

> should be up to the landlord and not the government

It's the government's duty to protect its citizens from abuse. "The government" is behind every law and regulation. So every time I hear this I wonder if the people who say it realize what it implies. How easily it turns into "it's up to the [person who shafted you] not the government". I'm sure you are protected by so many of them you don't even realize. Just because renting in NY is not an issue for you doesn't mean it's not an issue.

The one problem that is left with PWAs is that they do not support local file access.

So they have to store data in the browsers local storage. And that is wiped out when the user deletes their browsing data.

I don't know what math you're referring to, but the possibility of adaptive introgression strikes me to be non-negligible, especially given that it has specifically been observed in mosuitoes under selective pressure from pesticides...

Hybridization rates are not static. What's more, hybrid mosquitoes would in no way be limited to mating with other hybrid mosquitoes.

Consider that this gene drive diminishes the female mosquito's ability to feed on blood. I'd expect it be possible that this would cause modified female mosquitoes to be maladapted in other ways. If modified female mosquitoes were to experience significant additional stress, the adult sex ratio in modified mosquitoes could shift dramatically toward an overbalance of modified males.

If this were to happen, don't you see how it could increase pressure on males to outbreed? E.g. if a large proportion of their natural mates were either dead or malnourished? Similarly, can you see how the same kind of situation might emerge for the hybrids, increasing the likelihood of backcrossing?

A gene drive that specifically disrupts the females' ability to survive seems like it would increase the likelihood of introgression, potentially by a lot.

This whole situation just strikes me as highly unpredictable, risky and poorly understood.
There's UVD support all the way back to R600 (the first AMD chipset to include UVD), two generations before Northern Islands (which I think is what Brazos has), and there has been since before fglrx was discontinued AFAICT. I think on most distributions this support is packaged separately from the rest of Mesa, which may be why you didn't see it.
I think PWAs can mean less privacy as they run (from home) in non extension enabled browser instance.

I've not got any confirmation on this, but if you have a fully tricked out Firefox mobile on your Android device and load a PWA from your home screen it will not load your extensions and you cannot access them or the browser settings.

Seems like many website developers would love PWAs if it means more ads and income for their companies.
What is a 'field'?

I get the feeling that Buefy's approach is to use custom elements instead of native elements? So something like an <input> element becomes some <b-field> thing?

I am sceptical if that is a good thing. I would not want to swap out all regular html for some fantasy elements of a library.

Why would they do this? They'd need a new line of ARM variant CPUs to meet the various performance points of the different macbooks and imacs. And they'd be amortizing those costs over a rather small (for them) number of units.

And that would do very little to address the costs of maintaining the OSX software stack, very little of which is CPU specific. Most of those costs are in maintaining a rather different model of UI interaction, software installation, and backwards compatibility.

My guess is that they have developed this capability in-house as a form of insurance, and will keep it around and alive as a way of keeping their Intel costs reasonable.

> His problem is that he thinks they're strange for not just offering more money

I don't think he thinks they're strange, he's just surprised. When you visit France and can buy high quality wine for half the cost that you get in the U.S., it's surprising. When you go to Singapore and see that housing can often be more expensive than luxury apartments in NYC, it's surprising. Similarly, when you go to Japan and see people doing the same thing you do, but making 30%+ less, it's surprising.

Maybe the cost of living and government provided social services make up for some of this difference, maybe they don't. But having some initial sticker shock in the price differential can be pretty natural.

If he has a problem, it's that he thinks a unit of work should be valued equally , i.e., if I do X, it should be universally valued at $Y. It's a nice thought, and I'd like to wish it was true, but it's not how our economy works. The value of X is not intrinsic, it's based on what someone is willing to pay for it.

Coal mining in the U.S. in the 1950s provided a solid middle class foundation, but the same job today does not. Beethoven is clearly a better musician than most pop music, but few today would shell out money to listen to his music, while they would for many popular artists.

Hopefully from this, he can realize how lucky he is to have access to a country which, for a variety of reasons, values this type of production more than other places in the world.

Ah! Maybe that’s what was causing my failures.
The N1 is actually expected to be on par or faster than a Zen core in single threaded applications. Overall it would be a match for both Zen and Skylake-SP. Add to this Apple's specific brand of control over their software stack and you've got some exceptional potential to deliver high performance in a low power envelope.

And all this while giving Apple full control over every aspect of their product (whether it leads to good or bad outcomes). Which could mean actual yearly refreshes instead of forgetting about a product for years because Intel had nothing in the pipeline.

I mean if you're going to pay a hefty price premium you probably want something only Apple can give you. Not just a more expensive version of the same thing shipped by every other OEM out there.
From a builder's perspective, all rules are advisory. You may want the specific effect these rules state is a problem - what if you want something to detach with less force than the "click"?

But these rules are really for Lego's internal use - I can understand the company wanting to make sure that kits it sells work properly in isolation, but obviously they can't control the other kits it will be mixed with. Maybe this means that they should have considered more possible combinations when designing those particular parts?

The problem of the deal wasn't the mechanics, it was how it was sold to the public. A competition putting cities against cities, negotiated without any public input, a large tax break to one of the richest companies in the world, choosing already popular cities rather than really investing in a newer one. Amazon could have definitely closed this deal if they pitched it properly.

It's a bit sad that this guy mainly came into the spotlight because of some Twitter user making fun of his appearance and not because of his work.
Fair use isn't a blanket excuse to do whatever you want. The key component is whether your use is transformative. If you copy something to criticize it, or make something that doesn't compete with the original, it's likely fair use. If you copy something just to have it, or build upon it, it's not. This is a new issue, but copying someone's tweets, just to create your own library of tweets is not really transforming anything, I don't see how this is fair use.
Well, yes, and that makes sense. They have an obfuscated area, which is what I would expect in this case too, instead of removing the option for the whole of Taiwan. Taipei, New Taipei, Taoyuan and Taichung are not exactly tiny villages where only a couple of geeky nerds used 3D, either.

>The first (leading) digit of the IIN identifies the major industry of the card issuer.

4 and 5 stand for "Banking and financial".

>The leading six digits of the card number is the issuer identification number (IIN), sometimes referred to as the "bank identification number (BIN)".

There's a list of all 1000000 possible IINs/BINs, but it's not publicly available:

>The official "ISO Register of Issuer Identification Numbers", is not available to the general public. It is only available to institutions who hold IINs published in the Register, financial networks and processors. Institutions are required to sign a licensing agreement before they are given access to the Register. Several IINs are well known, especially those representing credit card issuers.

It's a bit like IP address blocks: there's is/was some logic to it, but to actually know which bank a IIN/BIN belongs to (after mergers, acquisitions etc) you have to look it up in the register.
Moore's law is dead. Switching architectures to something that is more customizable to your current process is one of the only ways to squeeze more performance out of a given chip.
