You should try loading "the modern web" over a not great but passable phone connection (ie 3G maximum) on a non-flagship phone. Nearly every normal website you will have an exceedingly bad time on. That's what AMP claims to solve. Far be it from me to claim they succeeded or that they are doing it in the right way, but I think pretending the problem doesn't exist at all is disingenuous.

Thank you for the kind advice. Don't worry, I won't use it on any sort of content-heavy websites!

I think you are comparing apples and oranges. Jquery is absolutely awesome for automating parts of your pages, and/or adding substantial interactivity.

If you are building an actual SPA, as in application (think gmail and the like) you wouldn't want to use jquery.
The more we approach a monoculture, the more innovation stagnates. It was a serious, possibly fatal blow already when Microsoft threw in the towel. If safari and firefox were to follow suit, we'd enter a dark age.
Interesting. I'm certain you're right don't blame your superiors if they hold your fate in their hand. But what do you do when you know they are incompetent? Cover their ass and feed their incompetence for your own gain? I'm not sure.

.NET is very different today from what is was 10+ years ago. Although not without its warts, a very nice field.

Tell me when they are doing something about privacy and not just thinking about it and writing op-eds about how they are the leader of the pack about writing about privacy.
Which is the reason, why you may have a very hard time to open a bank account abroad, when you're a US citizen.

Banks just don't want to deal with that shit, if they can avoid it.
Quite right. Thank you for the correction.
Geolocalized Open Data for Marketers
The EU is a large and diverse place, implying that there is such a thing as an "EU population" and that you can judge them as a group is not a good way to start a cohesive argument.
Hi guys

I've already spent several weeks on this project and I've decided to launch the website today even if it's not finished (beta version).

The idea is to continue the development according to feedback, comments and advice. There are still 1000 things to do : design, typo, features, improve lists...

What does the site offer?
The idea is to offer users the ability to create their own marketing lists and use them as they please. You can create as many geolocalized open data lists as you want. You select a geographical area, define parameters (categories, keywords ...) and the system extracts for you downloadable data such as name, location, address, telephone number, website, email address ...

Let's say you want to get a list of all the restaurants in Manhattan.
When you register, you receive 500 baits (a bait = a location detail such as name, address, phone number, website ... if available)
1. Create a "fishing expedition" and define criteria (mainly category = restaurant)
2. Create a new pond (you will fish in this pond): With the drawing tool, create a line around Manhattan.
3. Click on "dig and fish" and you will know how many baits you need to get all the data
4. Then click on "fish them all!" and you will have a list of all the restaurants and their available details (name, address, telephone number, website...). This list can be downloaded as a 'csv' file (you can open this file with Excel, LibreOffice, Google Sheets...)

Data from services such as Google Maps or Foursquare can not be used for marketing or communication purposes. For example, the Google Maps Terms of Service (3.2.4) states "Customer will not extract, export, scrape, or cache Google Maps Content for use outside the Services".
Data from The Data Pond are under the Open Data Commons Open Database License (ODbL).

The data you will get from The Data Pond are not as rich as data from services like Google Maps or Foursquare but, at least, it is legal to use them.

If you have any comment or advice, do not hesitate. Shot.
Instead of maintaining a single row in a table for the count, you maintain a table containing several rows. Instead of updating the single row, you insert a new row containing a 1 or -1. To get the count, you sum() the table. And you have a process to rollup the rows occasionally. This way you avoid the locks, except for the rollup.
Thanks for this... I don't even click guardian links anymore because of all the leftist dreamery and/or propaganda.
yeah getting into devops stuff from the outside is still very challenging. the official docs are always very working professional oriented
In case of PXE, that's not given in 100%. Some IP stacks on option roms or bioses don't know of routing.

And EFI does HTTP(S), routing, DNS if the firmware is 100% standard compliant.

So far, it is the client command line that is bugged the most, so you can't reliably pass boot parameters to kernel

Those articles are immaterial (although they are a little ironic) in this case, because what you are describing was already not allowed. Thankfully a small artist doesn't need media exposure in this case, this is what courts are for.
> Second, unlike other news sources, HN tends to have moderate to high quality discussion.

I firmly oppose to this view. What you are perceiving as "moderate to high quality" is actually just the suppression of mean words, that is good by itself but does not equate to the quality.

I too classify about one fifth of the HN front page as "outrage porns"; they tend to be visibly biased and their discussions are significantly worse in my humble opinion. For that portion of HN I believe they are no better than the mainstream media. If you want remaining four fifths, good! But you have to learn to filter the problematic fifth out.
MS Windows of some 3.x variety was apparently the original selected GUI for the Atari ST, intended to be running from ROM… however, MS couldn’t apparently get it to fit in less than a couple of megabytes, hex dumps of the code would show a hell of a lot of redundant x86 stuff in there, like references to hercules drivers and all manner of bloat that they couldn’t strip. They seemed to be disassembling the binaries to translate to 680×0 assembly and kludging it that way rather than from source, which was always rumoured to be a complete mess for the early windows versions. Anyhoo, apparently Trammiel got pissed at MS for lack of progress on shrinking and refining it and went with a version of GEM instead.
I'd encourage you to try the built-in tutorials on the subject, starting with "An Introduction to Programming in Emacs Lisp" (unless you still have to complete the general emacs tutorial, in which case, press C-h t). Imho, being able to effectively navigate the builtin documentation tools (C-h i, C-h k, C-h m, C-h f, ...) is what allows you to ramp up your emacs knowledge the fastest.
I have an anecdote to share which has (perhaps unfairly) biased my beliefs regarding underrepresented people on Wikipedia.

On /r/twoxchromosomes, a profile of a somewhat accomplished (more like John Aaron, less like Alan Turing) woman was posted. In the comments were some six to ten people lamenting that she didn't have a Wikipedia page.

I thought perhaps it had been put up for RFDs or something the way they complained about how a man in the same position would have a page. Anyway, so I waited a day to see if they'd do anything and they didn't.

The woman in question did deserve a Wikipedia page so I made one, described her story, and added citations. Within the week, various bots had made it pretty. I was then able to go request a picture for her Wikipedia page. I just checked and the page looks pretty good. Lots of people have contributed.

Nothing I did was impossible for any of them to do. So why didn't they do it? Why instead did they write absolute reams of comments about the unfairness when they had the tools to fix it? Why are they so helpless?

On the Internet, no one knows you're a dog. You can be the change, quietly.
Let me know how it goes; if our sales droids don't come up with something acceptable on their own, I am keen to understand why and will work something out for you.
I find Wikipedia tremendously useful and have made modest acknowledgement of that financially. That said, I tried to get them to correct/augment something they had based on a thesis from the 1970's at a top US school. The matter could have been verified but instead it was rejected out of hand and so the content on Wikipedia is less than it might have been. I had a sense the matter was handled with great dispatch and finality.
it will be nice if you could add screenshots in the readme.
Sounds like you're thinking of regression towards the mean. Newborn children probably get a random roll when it comes to financial aptitude as is mostly true with other types of aptitude. Being the son of a skilled investor won't necessarily make you a skilled investor. I think they'd still be above average though since the son of a skilled investor will likely have access to more connections and a better education than the son of a janitor.
Yikes, posting like this will get you banned on HN. We're trying to do better than internet default when it comes to nastiness.

Would you please review https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and follow the rules when posting to HN from now on?

> Can we agree that the Fourth Estate's most important role in society is to report on politics and the powerful?

I certainly don't agree. Their most important role is to inform the public on things that affect the public's well being. This might include politics and the powerful, but that's not everything. If a hurricane is coming, you need to know about it and you need to know where to go to get safety. Sometimes politics is important to cover. Sometimes powerful people are important to cover. Sometime they are not. It depends on the impact to society. I feel usually news outlets do a poor job of evaluating the importance of the news they report and rather rely on reporting things that will bring the highest notoriety.
This seems to be the best solution by far.
But then it makes wonder, why would anyone get themselves into startups anyway? Especially when you consider the relatively low compensation and high risk.
There is so much we can be grateful for jQuery. It was the first JS platform (plugins) and had a huge impact on the DOM API. Without jQuery there would not be any BackboneJS, AngularJS etc.

jQuery got its niche today. Still the best for simple one-off landingpages.
Yes, most speakers are 20Hz-20kHz or better. Here's a pair of $10 headphones that do just that[0]. Most humans have range inside that band. Those both are really the limits of human hearing and as you get older it dramatically decreases. I remember there were those ringtones (IIRC called cricket?) that used high frequencies so teachers wouldn't hear it go off. Some malls also used high frequency sounds so teens wouldn't loiter outside their stores. Most of these were even below 18kHz.

tldr: yes

This looks like a dupe of https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19195819. Also, please don't do promotional voting and especially not booster comments in the threads! Our software picks up most of it and HN users figure it out too, and then they get mad and flag things (or worse).
This is exactly the problem.

Imagine if every single law on the books is enforced 100% of the time. No leeway, no margin for discretion.
For me a social network is a community of users where the primary goal is social interaction. Other communities like Wikipedia, or Goodreads are similar but aren't social networks to me since the primary goal is editing an encyclopedia or curating books.

At least that's the distinction I've always personally made.
There is no point other than opportunism. The same reason kids were working in textile mills last century and why housing costs are multiplying now in the western world.

Could you please provide some reference? I seriously doubt that what you said is correct.
Terse and composable/fluent API. You don’t have that on plain DOM methods.
While this does sound cool in a sort of abstract way, it doesn't honestly compare to work that is genuinely at the vanguard of human understanding. That's what the person you are replying to was getting at if I'm not mistaken.
"An even larger number of patients received unwanted braces sent to their homes. The unwanted products could disqualify them from receiving a brace under Medicare if they need one in the future, prosecutors said."

So Medicare knows this happened and is still willing to disqualify random people from getting braces? Really? I mean, I believe it but still, this is where we are folks.

It's like someone sued for "damaging" someone's credit, rather than just demanding that damaging information not being used. It's like an idiot going to jail for "SWATing" someone but where the SWAT team can still bust down doors and kill based on random tips.
Last year I started a fairly big new web app after a few years away from web development and started out wanting to not use JQuery since I knew that was what the cool kids where doing. But everywhere I turned I kept bumping into libraries or widgets I wanted to use that wanted to pull in JQuery as a dependency. And most of the times any JQuery-free alternative I could find wasn't as feature complete or didn't quite work the way I wanted it to. Eventually I just gave up included JQuery.
News is the here and now presentation of events (and basically press releases/packages), which one absolutely does not need to consume daily in order to do informed voting.

What you want to be reading is aggregate analysis, and quality articles of that kind are found on sites which mostly avoid feeding you the other bullshit. Publications like Economist, Atlantic, Politico, etc.
Wow, a "shoestring low priority" project gets top search result placement, a custom icon callout, and cannot be disabled. What do the high-pri projects get?
I believe that Mozilla is technologically superior to Google and Microsoft. Mozilla managed to create a great community around firefox and rust, they keep their development processes open and they are moving reasonably fast with a steady pace without breaking things. Google and MS will not be able to keep up with Mozilla, after the major parts of firefox will be reimplemented in rust.

The only thing Mozilla needs to break a dominance of Google and MS is a some significant shift on the market of browsers, when abilities to adapt will be more valuable than ability to ship a specific browser to all users of Windows and Android. IT moves fast, so in decade or so a shift like that will happen almost inevitable.
"I can not switch jobs" - yes you can.
Most of all major US based tech corporations today are part of various secretive government programs including PRISM [1]. Internal NSA slides, never meant to be publicly revealed, state that PRISM facilitates "extensive, in-depth surveillance on live communications and stored information." Examples offered included surveillance on email, video and voice chat, videos, photos, voice-over-IP chats (such as Skype), file transfers, and social networking details. Snowden in describing the system stated that, "in general, the reality is this: if an NSA, FBI, CIA, DIA, etc. analyst has access to query raw SIGINT [signals intelligence] databases, they can enter and get results for anything they want."

This is really where the constitution is starting to fail us. The government can increasingly circumvent the constitution by simply pressuring, or enticing, monopolizing companies to cooperate with them meaning they need not pass any particular law, which in turns means that the constitution is increasingly powerless to constrain the behavior of the government. As one obvious example, imagine the government wanted to stop videos from being published on some topic. In times past this would have been a huge deal and they would have had to try to pass a law, which would have directly run into the first amendment. Today, all they need to do is pressure, or incentivize, a tiny handful of companies, Google and Facebook in particular, to cooperate and they can censor whatever they like without passing a single law.

I wonder if this is analogous to how the interweaving of church and state felt in times past, before we started to pass laws requiring the separation of church and state. Both entities are able to covertly pursue their own ends with mutual plausible deniability. 'We're not being anti-competitive. We're behaving within the bounds of the law set by the government.' 'We're not censoring anything. Corporations have every right to set their own rules and policies.' Whatever the case I've no doubt that the next great nation that is started from scratch, as the US was, will undoubtedly make some effort to isolate government from business, and business from government.

As does nearly any large library. The more abstraction you add the more complex things get. And "millions" is a bit of an overstatement, no?
I was raised and lived in fairly conservative areas - Alaska, Louisiana, North Carolina. Though as everyone does, I explored many areas of politics, attempting to formulate my own belief system; it is continuous work in progress never settling.

However, having lived and traveled throughout the world, from the US, Iceland, Ukraine, Turkey, Cyprus, Nepal and more I've learned that your own culture and people help you the most. The US is too big to systematically solve any problems at the federal level. Issues are best solved locally, at the community level.

I don't keep every ounce of wealth, we donate to our local church which gives to the homeless in our area. My wife gives her time to the church, helping families that are currently homeless. She aids in the school, volunteering in the classroom, functions, ensuring the children are receiving the attention they deserve. Local issues are what we are trying to progress. Areas we can see an impact - where our money, time, and effort are being used properly.

I do believe the system is set-up for people to succeed, but it isn't easy. Work, sacrifice, owning up to your mistakes and learning from them are what matters. I've never seen one person regardless of race, sex, or age be denied an opportunity they truly put 100% effort into. Does plan A always work? No, sometimes you have to accept plan C and make the best of it.

Hopefully, that provided a little insight. It is late here.

How is this different to Azure ML and Amazon's offerings?

I know Azure ML as has been out for 3+ years - so I assume they have many features and enterprise learnings baked in over the years.

I agree. Try buying another house in the same area without that capital and see how theoretical it is.
The children of billionaires (like this guy) are, on average, wealthier than the children of truck drivers.
Anyone riding a motorcycle who is simply blindly counting on other drivers to see them, follow all the rules of the road carefully, and never do anything unexpected, is not going to last long. Everything motorcyclists do has to be done in such a way that it will still be safe even if the other cars around them are all but actively malicious. Fortunately, motorcycles are extremely agile, quick, and small, so it's easy for the attentive, cautious rider to anticipate and avoid most hazards. The trick is just managing to always be sufficiently attentive and cautious.

You responded to a very educational comment with this. You should apply your comments to the other user’s decision-making process. Either one or both of the cars in your example will be giving hints that the gap will close, let alone the trucks. If the motorcyclist is behind you, he will see that something’s wrong. If he’s starting to pass, he will brake. If he’s in the middle of the pass, he will clear before the gap closes. In very unusual circumstances, you will be forced into the other car by some sudden circumstances and the motorcyclist might get caught, but you should know from driving much of your life how likely this is, and some aggregated data is also available.

Your other example about arbitrarily using the edge of the lane would be even easier to detect using his framework.
Hi Josh, very sorry about the unfortunate surprise, we're aware of this and agree it's not nice.

We couldn't address it in time for the launch, so basically all the website's pricing options currently point directly to where you can buy them in the app, which implies a GitHub sign-in (where only a valid email is requested, NB).

We're planning to add un-authed pages with more info about each plan, but we also prefer spending our time on improving the developer experience rather than on payment options, so it may take a bit of time.
