Everyone arguing against this is forgetting that this is FACEBOOK, premier social network on the planet. sure it's unhip to actually use it for networking now but everyone and their mum is still maintaining a presence on it(no the vaunted snapchat only teens don't count, they have secret facebook accounts linked to none of their peers to participate with their selfsame anonymized peers in meme pages on facebook)

all they'd have to do for this to be successful is to make reach for partnered pages the same as it used to be before they limited it. there are pages with 1million followers who have a reach of 10-100k right now coz of the new rules.imagine if facebook said "partner and you get 1 million back".
Yes, sugar is metabolized by insulin while fat is metabolized by the liver. Sugar does trigger a dopamine response much stronger than cocaine addiction (this is medically observed), but the dopamine effect is orthogonal to the different metabolic response.

This difference in metabolism is due to physiology. It is not a myth. The implications of the difference are that energy created through the insulin process is immediately available and the unused remainder of energy after use is stored as fat. Fat in take, on the other hand, stores energy as fat the body thinks it will need and dumps the rest. Fat becomes energy when stored fat is metabolized in the liver resulting in slow but more consistent energy. Understanding that difference is significant to dropping weight.

I've managed to finish reading the chapter with the example refactoring from Fowler's book before putting it down as parody.

He's part of a design school that likes to pulverise code into tiny functions with the goal of having code that consists only of assignments and function calls, reading like instructions in English to the computer.

Whoever was indoctrinated by Robert Martin, Martin Fowler & co should read Ousterhout's design book for a fresh perspective on this.

The value of a book like "Refactoring" lies in naming the refactoring (e.g. extract function), but please don't listen to the design advice.

Am I being paranoid that, by collecting CC numbers, Facebook will then use that to share data with retailers to collect the precise purchase history of a user?
To add to this, while the cut is 6 times larger, you only need a 40% larger audience to make up for the cost.

I could see that happening given that you'd have a huge base of people with accounts already and it's a platform for sharing content.

i use a yoghurt machine, which is really no different from a babybottle heater. iaw. something that heats the milk to a consistent temperature and keeps it there.

step 1: put the cold milk in together with the starter. turn on the machine and get yoghurt 12 hours later.

step 2: let it cool down to room temperature.

step 3: put in fridge to cool down further. (i prefer yoghurt cold)

as a starter i use any yoghurt from the store.

different yoghurt starters yield different results.

once it's done i freeze a few spoons full of it for the next batches. an icecube tray or a home popsicle maker works well for that.

i keep several generations frozen so when one generation doesn't work out (i don't like the resulting texture) then i can go back to a previous generation.
Apple and Google provide significant added value in their app stores: distribution, discoverability, licensing, testing (at least in Apple's case)... etc.

Patreon is not that. At its heart, it's primarily a service for collecting donations. There is some content hosting, but that's kind of a secondary feature.

I have been out of Portland for 7 months, but are all of these still running? I recall one being installed on the SW riverfront that was almost immediately shuttered, I thought, due to successful vandalism/an inability to keep it functional. It just sat there unusable for ages - I ran by it nearly every day and evening for 5+ years (2013-2018) at was roped off the entire time.
If it was allowed, somebody would have done it.

People are often scared, don’t care or don’t know how to. I have found it best to include a batch of refactoring each time I touched something during development. (Because adding features or fixing bugs requires understanding the part of the code, so you may as well improve it since you already have it in your head.) This makes everything take more time, but that has to be expected when dealing with a lot of technical debt.

A huge +1 for TypeScript. I usually work in a well-typed language (Swift), but have been recently working in JavaScript and it was amazing how much TypeScript improves the situation. I can’t imagine working on a serious code base without types. (Some people can.)

same, except i use Brave (Chromium minus the Google crap/tracking.)

I try Firefox after every major update, but for me "pinch to zoom" not working for the trackpad is the biggest flaw. It's so frustrating/such a basic feature.

Safari and Chrome have had this feature for at least 6 years.

I only have 2 categories of recycling, and even those can be a hassle (e.g., I can never if soft plastic bags go in the plastic bin). But I too get the warm "fuzzies" when I do it. But those fuzzies are more than just being seen as "eco-conscious" or whatever, it's about efficiency. We go through enormous lengths to be efficient about our time, sleep, food we eat, etc. Being efficient with the products we use and waste we create makes me feel like my life is running like a precision machine rather than a beat up old clunker.

I'd personally love the concept of living a life that created no waste, where every output I created could be used as another's input. Alas, I don't think we're there yet.
I agree with you and would like to add that this sort of thinking is typical elitism. Such simplified models utterly fail to account for all the inconvenient complications of real life and thus do far more harm than good when acted upon.

Consider what happens if the project being hired for is unexpectedly canceled soon after hiring. Or internal politics and personality conflicts end up being an issue. It doesn't take much turnover at all to completely change the dynamics of a team, regardless of whether or not all the replacements are equally skilled.

Teams are complex systems. Such mental shortcuts provide a false sense of knowledge (and usually superiority) for those who otherwise fail to understand the logistic and social complexities involved. Real life isn't an RPG with a level system; the fact that this even needs to be pointed out to otherwise intelligent and well educated people is outrageous.

Just thinking, I bet you could have a top level component (in React say) implement a state chart. Then the spec is the code, which is always nice. You might want parameterised states though (i.e. list into detail view) I wonder if that's a thing.
To my experience nothing works that isn't directly besides the code / isn't generated by it. So schema generation and/or javadoc-like mechanism. Nobody will read or want to maintain separate structures, especially not arbitrary tomes like wikis.
"the train’s shorter engine (59 feet instead of the current 72) opens up as much as 20 percent more space for passengers"

Does it? Why?

The max percentage increase is going to be for the shortest trains, where space isn't an issue anyway.

But then even ignoring that, does the driver need a platform? Why not have the two motor units overhang the platform?
> Facebook is selling access to an audience.

I remember their promo videos promising access to "millions of people" and "your imagination is the limit". Turns out it isn't feasible to spam all the people in your friends list with all your updates, so Facebook decides who sees which. Want more people to see your posts? Your wallet is the limit.

C is extremely simple. In fact is one of the few languages that you could manage to understand completely in the sense of knowing exactly what it does.

C macros on the other hand, should die. I use C a lot but never ever use c macros, they are evil. Extremely hard to debug, confusing and very weak.

When we want macros, we use Lisp, that have proper macros.

Many of those affluent suburbs became wealthy because of the station and rail link to London. The less-affluent suburbs are often those Mr Beeching ripped connection from, by removing most of the branch line network.

In the rest of the country, I've never felt surrounded by wealth on trains. Mostly it just seemed like the same mix of regular people you'd see anywhere.
Writing and maintaining a modern webbrowser isn't cheap or easy; exactly why MS switched to Chromium as an engine.

Google is the main power behind all Chromium development and there have already been plenty of examples of the devs going "our way or the highway" with noone forking the browser engine. Upcoming is the new change to block adblockers from working properly in chrome. I see nobody willing to fork chromium over that.

Please tell me which one of those things you named are a monopoly, and I will name the closest competitor.

I'm thinking about Craigslist, Snapchat, Vimeo, Mixer, etc. Don't confuse market leader with monopoly.

Before Steam, you had several casual portals (all competing with each other). Do you know which cut they took? 70%.

Do you know why platforms nowadays take 30%? Because it's well worth the 30%, that's why. And if you think a platform can live off a 3% cut, please show me the successful on that does that.
Uh, I’m not Singaporean and don’t live in Singapore any longer but good guess.

You must have taken Uber more than a few weeks ago because it’s been shut down since late 2018. If you don’t believe me open up the app on your phone and try to book a ride between two points in Singapore.

Not really surprised that they haven’t completely removed all the marketing from their site, it’s not like Uber is renowned for attention to detail.
Also the rules around undefined behaviour, type aliasing and so on are definitely not simple.
Those rankings based on countries don't say much IMHO.
It depends on :

- the score. If the top 5 achieves 85/100 and the the rest of the top 20 achieves 83/100, they are all on par.

- the field. If it's academic with open source code and scientific results shared with everyone on Earth, who cares who is in the top 5?

By your argument we should only need a single dictionary, Websters, because your language is real and not the imagined one people in other english places speak, Webster just happens to be the one that aligns closest to your usage of english.
Take a look at who constructed the graph you quoted:

http://citizenschallenge.blogspot.com/2012/10/nasif-s-nahle-...

Not a scientist.

Now... anybody who is really interested in the real geological history knows that even the continents "weren't there" where they are now, when we look long enough in the past. Not to mention that, for the old enough times, not even plants existed on the land!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geological_history_of_Earth

In that context:

https://www.skepticalscience.com/co2-higher-in-past-intermed...

"However, until recently, CO2 levels during the late Ordovician were thought to be much greater than 3000 ppm which was problematic as the Earth experienced glacial conditions at this time. The CO2 data covering the late Ordovician is sparse with one data point in the CO2 proxy record close to this period - it has a value of 5600 ppm. Given that solar output was around 4% lower than current levels, CO2 would need to fall to 3000 ppm to permit glacial conditions."

"(Young 2009). Rock weathering removes CO2 from the atmosphere. The process also produces a particular isotope of strontium, washed down to the oceans via rivers. The ratio of strontium isotopes in sediment layers can be used to construct a proxy record of continental weathering activity. The strontium record shows that around the middle Ordovician, weatherability increased leading to an increased consumption of CO2. However, this was balanced by increased volcanic outgassing adding CO2 to the atmosphere. Around 446 million years ago, volcanic activity dropped while rock weathering remained high. This caused CO2 levels to fall below 3000 ppm, initiating cooling. It turns out falling CO2 levels was the cause of late Ordovician glaciation."

"So we see that comparisons of present day climate to periods 500 million years ago need to take into account that the sun was less active than now. What about times closer to home? The last time CO2 was similar to current levels was around 3 million years ago, during the Pliocene. Back then, CO2 levels remained at around 365 to 410 ppm for thousands of years. Arctic temperatures were 11 to 16°C warmer (Csank 2011). Global temperatures over this period is estimated to be 3 to 4°C warmer than pre-industrial temperatures. Sea levels were around 25 metres higher than current sea level (Dwyer 2008)."

You have to understand geology to be able to compare. If you don't, people with agenda will easily sell you worthless graphs. Worthless as in "CO2 was higher when there were no plants and animals on the land at all, just the naked rocks." Nice target you have.
Seems like a "most vexing parse", but for C!
> jQuery simply doesn’t have the complexity or potential power of a full JS MVC

jQuery versus MVC? What is this guy blabbing about. jQuery is a little DSL for accessing the DOM using paths and patterns, instead of verbose chains of accessors. If you just want to access some element nested in the DOM, there nothing wrong with using jQuery; and how does some MVC framework help?
The more work you have to do to change anything in the UI, the more improvements you end up saying "no" to. Great UIs typically get that way via an enormous number of tweaks and improvements (both small and large) at every stage of the design and implementation process.

Early prototyping, designers and developers working together directly, continuous builds, frequent feedback from users—all of these things feed into this improvement process and make the end result better. I'd worry that formal specifications would have the opposite effect.
If someone ask me to review a commit that contained +/- 100k loc, I think I'd reject it on principle.

I used to do some ColdFusion development a long, long time ago.

I get an occasional cold call from a LinkedIn recruiter about once every two years for an open role requiring ColdFusion expertise.
I recently did a tour of a NYC Waste Management center in Queens. The installation was huge, roughly the same footprint as the entire wallstreet section of downtown Manhattan. Further, the technology at every step of the waste management process was very impressive.

Skimmers on top to separate oily waste, under-water conveyors to separate heavier materials, huge pools of bacteria that can "digest" organic matter turn it into methane that can then heat homes or create power, centrifuges that can do more precise separation.

They showed the before and after of the waste from the process. It starts as absolutely disgusting murky green water with dirty wet-naps in it, to crystal clear H20 (although I still wouldn't drink it).

The work involves nearly every engineering discipline from bio-chemists to electrical engineers to underwater mechanics to software developers. It's unfortunate it's a public job and the pay isn't great, it's interesting work.

But sadly, given all that, every time it rains the rainwater floods the system with more liquid than it can handle and it all gets dumped into the hudson river.

While P(Russian|ICPC Winner) is high, P(ICPC Winner|Russian) is still pretty low :) Also, Illia is Ukrainian, not Russian, but it's nitpicking.

ICPC is a great way to start your career if you were unfortunate enough to get born in a noname city somewhere in ex-Soviet Union, thus people are pretty motivated to do well. In US by the time you graduate you already have few internships in your resume, and are pretty figured career wise, so naturally the benefits of ICPC are less attractive.
I can recommend trying out Empear’s CodeScene tool - it takes source control analysis to a whole new level and highlights many issues.

For example it will help you figure out relationships like
when I add another widget here I should remember to add new switch/case clauses there and there and there.

Another nice approach is using static analysis tools to look at metrics like cyclomatic complexity, coupling and the dependency structure matrix to find the most important and troublesome parts of the code base.

Just insulate the building properly and then you can use rooftop solar to cool it down on those days when it gets too hot - largely because the sun is shining.

Moving heat is generally easier than generating it.

"SNCF is fiddling with the wrong things.

I'm guessing this is being imposed on SNCF by national and European government.

In their defence they seem to be doing the right things. They're preparing for competition by lowering their costs etc.

The proposed system of giving each region the power to grant a monopoly seems a bit ill considered though.
