We as a society, might benefit more, but, like socialized healthcare, that's not how the market works. The bandwidth to support renting out smartphones-as-hotspots for home wifi connections will make Verizon wireless and AT&T quite happy (at Comcast's expense), so the question is less "why", and more "who, and for how much"?
Are you familiar with HTML5 and Custom Elements[1][2] (often aka WebComponents). <legit-whatever-i-want> is a valid HTML component.

It's not 2010 HTML, that's for sure, but so what? Are you complaining about AMP, or about HTML5?

I dont have any, and I'm not going to dig up some to pretend I do.

I am speaking off the cuff as someone heavily involved and interested in RF in general and WiFi/LTE in particular.

From my anecdota(shame this isnt a word), Atheros chips have better SNR and higher symbol discrimination thanks to cleaner amps, better signal discrimination logic, and tend to be on the forefront of newer RF techniques in the WiFi space. All this culminates in better throughput, latency, and spectrum utilization than anyone else.

It also helps that their support under Linux is far superior to most everything else, which helps in Router/AP/Client integration and testing.

I don't even like Qualcomm, but from my experience, you will almost always regret choosing someone else for anything but the most basic requirements.
They've specifically gone for a low orbit with plenty of atmospheric drag to bring any unresponsive sats or broken pieces down promptly.
I've used it for emergencies a few times, and you're right that it's a bit cumbersome to get going. But I've never had a problem with syncing between iPhone, iPad, iMac, and MacBook Air.

I'd also like it to use iCloud for sync. Panic explained a little bit about why it uses its own platform in a blog post I found recently, but it was kind of vague.
Hmmm. The one time I tried it (for a crypto miner), it ran about 60% the speed of gcc and clang (which were comparable; one was slightly ahead, I forget which but I think it was gcc). Granted, I may have gotten the flags wrong (there were a lot of them), but I turned all the ones that looked relevant.
Ugh, Neidermeyer...

He's been focusing on Tesla recently, but that's only because they're pushing EV production more than anyone else.
That's interesting... could you provide an example of such an event?
You can rent a room in a house. It's not $30/month cheap, but it can be cheap enough. Sometimes housemates are not great, but you can usually find a nice quite family to rent from if you are also quiet. It can be a kind of transient lifestyle because usually those rooms are not available permanently, but it's not necessarily bad you you are only thinking about having a place to sleep and storage for a few things.
What are you talking about? What tweaking? You just install extensions and they’ll auto update. You only need to configure things when you don’t like the default behavior. I haven’t touched my VSCode configuration in ages.
Not everyone is building apps which need to be "web scale". Optane has the potential to significantly raise the performance ceiling of a single-master database. I bet there are a lot of companies who will happily drop six figures on Optane systems if it saves them the complexity of managing a distributed database.
They're in a very low orbit and would deorbit on failure in 2 weeks to 8 months according to SpaceX:

Oh, so if I estimate every task as 1 minute I'll finish really quickly?

The 2.4x is to overcome one's innate overoptimism (even if you see yourself as a pessimist), and to add contingency for unplanned complexity, bugs and general overhead.

It's a rule of thumb, not an immutable law, so if one has completed a similar task many times then less padding is needed.

If you use AMP I will be blocking your domain from all my computers. End of story.
Yes, you have to include it.

"AMP pages must...Contain a <script async src="https://cdn.ampproject.org/v0.js "></script> tag inside their <head> tag."

And why wouldn't normal AXFR's between servers work in this scenario?
It's pretty sad people excuse this. Every single press release OpenAI have made in the history of this project has been actively misleading.

What they've achieved is actually impressive, too, so the deception is doubly annoying.
One of the very real dangers is that all of the satellite constellations come one line at the same time, and none of them get to critical mass before they all go bankrupt.

Mass adoption is the key to reasonable per-user costs here.

Amazon, and possibly SpaceX are at an advantage here, since they have other revenue streams, so they might be able to wait out the rest of the field and grab customers from failed networks.
"Nowadays, many developers don’t care about time complexity … and they’re right!"

Massive facepalm.

A developer who doesn't care about complexity (both structural complexity of the code, and execution-time complexity of algorithms he uses) is simply incompetent. No ifs and no buts about it.

You are confusing the term “live stream” to mean something actually happening at that moment in the real world. All a “live” stream actually is to Youtube or FB or any other streaming service is just incoming RTMP packets. Youtube matches incoming streams against their ContentID database just as they do for normal uploads. I would bet that the same thing would have happened if the same footage were uploaded normally after the fact. People will use unlisted streams to broadcast pirated content otherwise. I faced a similarly false claim once where me playing Super Mario World on a real life SNES was falsely matched to some major label song, and since it was my third strike (all false) my account got banned from being able to use Youtube Live entirely. In the end I’m kind of glad that happened because it led to me developing my own minimal self-hosted stream site for small friends-only streams, including things Youtube would give legit claims for. My tiny VPS wouldn’t stand up to thousands or probably even dozens of simultaneous viewers like Youtube or the other big names can, but that doesn’t matter at all for me.
I think he, along with many others, wants Google to stop pushing this garbage on the internet.
> Having said that, I do agree with another comment I saw here in that, if I am following someone in the software architecture space, I care 0% about their political tweets, and if I follow someone in the Formula 1/motorsports space, I really don't need to see their thoughts on golf.

Absolutely, we need tags, and the ability to make them opt-in or opt-out for followers. So I can file ^food as an opt-in, and people who don't care about that can ignore them and just get the ^programming ones. Right now, followers and friends are all lumped together and so while friends follow you for life updates, followers generally only care about what you can do for them, eg your work. It's draining to try and manage multiple accounts. Some followers may find the side stuff cool, too.
First, what is the goal of making all income taxes public? If the goal is really about having the ability to scrutinize selective individuals with money or power, then an across the board demand like this may be over-solving the problem. If the goal is about something else, then there should be more investigation and evidence to support the reasoning.

Why is it important that everyone’s income taxes are public?

For the average American, what benefit or detriment does having their income taxes publicly accessible serve?

There’s many ways it could make life worse for those that are not: rich, politicians, or executives. It’s also a great way for the “ultra rich” to pit the “lower classes” against each other. If people knew their friends’, coworkers’, and family’s income taxes, then it’s an invitation for drama, jealousy, and fighting. Everyone would be comparing themselves against everyone else - like what happens on social media, except with more important monetary figures instead of imaginary internet points. In my opinion, that would further divide people rather than unify them.

If someone is a politician, a civil servant representative of the people, then their income taxes should be public as a gesture of government transparency. If people voted someone into office, they have a right to know about who is going to be representing them (at least in my opinion). Many government workers’ salaries are already public information, but it’s easier to be getting much more money from non-salary places the higher up (or the more high profile) someone in the government is. That’s what the real value of seeing their income tax is.

The same income tax transparency should, potentially, also be the case for anyone paid using the public’s tax dollars to deter corruption, kickbacks, and behavior not fitting the public interest.

For the non-wealthy or non-government individuals, what is gained by knowing the income taxes of some random person reporting $50k/yr? Even if someone reported $100+k/yr income, depending on where they live and what their expenses are it doesn’t guarantee they have a lot of cash on hand or valuable convertible assets. If anything, it gives scammers and thieves more ability to assess people’s refunds and try to steal them (as currently happens). In that sense, there isn’t much public benefit being gained for most individuals.

The crowd, at "Stack overflow" or anywhere else will never and has in the history of human kind never been an authority on anything. If anything, the crowds have killed innocent people by burning them at the stake, stoning or lynching them. So crowds are about as dumb as one can find.

> Scrivener is a second class citizen on Windows (e.g. no version 3 yet.) The money is clearly on Mac.

I wonder if they've ever published a breakdown on Mac vs. Windows users or if you're just making that up? They've stated they spend more on Windows development, although they evidently aren't getting enough out of it.
I've seen no proof of this happening, other than when the non-AMP version had strictly worse page score due to actually having worse performance.
considering how much time I spent waiting for Windows 10 to install some idiotic update, multiplied by the hourly rate, it probably cost as much as a stack of shiny new Apple laptops already.
I cannot opt out of my friends and family sharing that information which includes me, like address books. I cannot easily and effectively opt out of browser tracking. Opting out is not a reasonable option.
Web assembly?
thank you very much for the explanation!
Is there any proof that the score is impacted by AMP-ness, and not purely due to speed?
I'm the person who posted the tweet. Since then, some of my colleagues from the WebKit team have given more specific security feedback. Some of it has been addressed. And the Security Considerations section is less scary. But even so, I'd say we are pretty uncomfortable with this approach, for similar reasons to Mozilla. We can see some advantages to Google re-serving the whole web from their own servers and getting browsers to present it as if it comes from the origin, but it also seems like a worrisome change to the web security model.

Regardless of eventual effect, none of us reading this now will live long enough to see any of them. So much of the population won't be touched by this stuff for so long that it's hard to really say if there will be a real effect outside of the genetically ill.
TLDR; Engineers had found that there was risk of foam detachment, NASA managers thought that risk was not flagged significant to halt the mission.

In retrospect, it's easy to blame decision makers but here's the thing: If I told you that risk of you dying is 1 in 103 if you drive the car today, would you still drive? Relatively risk of fatal accident in Space Shuttle program was 1 in 62.
My understanding has been that most large companies, especially those older than like 15-20 years, in the east coast follow suit-culture for white-collar work; the minimum being business casual for daily work (not eg meetings with execs).

This difference being the quintessential culture shift compared to california (aka silicon valley) dress code, with shorts and shirt being a very direct reaction to it

But this is based on hearsay and history; I’m not old enough to experience it myself ;)
I've done a fair bit of Numba CUDA and I was so happy to throw everything out and switch to C++.

NubaCUDA gave me lots of small problems and a few big ones. The poor support for debug/perf tools and poor integration with other high-level python CUDA code (FFTs in particular) sent me packing, but the number of small problems was excessive in comparison to the size of my code. I had 5 reduced bugs at the bottom of my notebook and two paragraphs of "baggage" at the top to support a tiny little 50LoC kernel: one paragraph for the environment variables and one for patching nubacuda itself for a trivial API incompatibility that hadn't been fixed for the better part of a year. All of this for a tool that provided a diminutive subset of functionality at the intersection of both python and C. I've felt more computational freedom writing BASIC on my TI-83.

CuPy could well have changed that equation!

> incomprehensible error messages when the type inference goes wrong

NumbaCUDA is truly the galaxy-brain of type checking: first it complains loudly so as to force you to provide type information, then it opts to not complain about a mismatch, and then it silently reinterpret_casts a double* to float* behind your back.

I know it's free software and I have no right to complain, but I sure sunk a lot of time into this dead end and regret it.

Spiffy icon though.
It will be interesting to see if Microsoft ever diverges from the web platform functionality exposed by Chrome. My prediction is that either they never do it, or they eventually do it and are forced to fork. Chromium is not as open to variation in the main tree as WebKit was when Google showed up.
TLDR - More control over updates.

I was expecting a working search in the start menu.
1) I want full control over my servers and to not be penalized in search engines for not hosting my sites on Google. Where are the server-side logs?

2) I want full control over how I publish my sites with real web standards. AMP is not a web standard, it's a Google format that they are strong-arming people into using.

3) Mozilla considers Signed HTTP Exchanges harmful. This technology is as bad as what Microsoft was doing with IE in the old days.

4) I don't publish on Github pages, but if I did, I would still have a choice over which servers I put the sites on.

5) There shouldn't be a single company (or few companies) that dictates how we publish online.

6) Shame on the people who are splitting the web with this fake-opensource technology. There's even a Google engineer over here referring to the Web like it's a Google product. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19631136

This was the theme of one of Nine Inch Nails recent music videos: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gDV-dOvqKzQ
There are so many ways in which I feel this argument breaks down.

* OG would absolutely handily win against any non-professionally-contracted dota team under the exact same challenge conditions. (i.e.: OpenAI Five's test was about as good as they could give it at this stage.)

* OG's play within the scope of the game was novel, in that they were deliberately picking strategies that OpenAI Five didn't "understand" (i.e.: creep skipping) and still lost.

* OpenAI's play was novel, even within the constraints of the pool: No human team would pick the 4-core + CM lineup that OpenAI favoured. Even if you played with that limited hero meta, 4-core would likely not end up being a deliberate strategy picked by human teams with any frequency.

* OpenAI's play in all team fights was demonstrably better, playing exactly up to the limits of the heroes they were using and no further. (It is, in fact, OpenAI's teamfight which won them the game.)

* A number of the reductions and restrictions in hero-pool were to allow for OG to have a fighting chance: All heroes with controllable illusions or clones were banned because OpenAI had too much of an advantage in "micro".

If you sum all of those things up, I think it looks painfully obvious that OpenAI Five, if trained against the full hero pool, would completely and utterly dominate gameplay at the professional human level. It wouldn't even be close.
So glad Twitter is finally owning up to their white privilege and doing something about wrongthink. Maybe in a few months I'll be able to scroll through my feed without having to retreat to my safe space and cry for an hour afterward.

I think you're confusing "parliamentary system" with something else.
That is a consequence of two things. 1) the all or nothing approach to business that VC backed startups take and 2) the lack of quality network for many founders. It's why I specifically mentioned network for good advice. If you look at the patterns emerging from silicon valley with the PayPal mafia and even YC itself there is a clear advantage to be had from A) access to immense amounts of cash coupled with B) a network of people who have been there and done that. I find it very hard to believe that white upper middle class males are remarkable for their genius intellect as successful founder profiles would have you believe if looked at in isolation. From a purely critical perspective there is a wide range of intellect levels on display amongst unicorn founders.

"Who, precisely, is forcing publishers to use AMP?"

Google rolls out their carousel, pushing everything else down the fold.

Then they roll out AMP.

Then only AMP results go in the carousel.

So, it's optional if you don't mind losing the traffic.
Users like pages that load quickly, which amp is not a requirement for.

Amp is designed to tighten googles grip on the web, nothing more.

Too late to edit my comment, but my numbers seem to be wrong, or at least out of date.

During the Bush years, military spending was in the 25% (or greater) range.

SS/MC was lower (as a percentage of the budget) than today, but it was closer to 33% than 25%.

Optane is not durable enough to survive as main memory, hence use cases using it as primarily read memory to avoid wearing out the cells with writes.

Take a look at how cagey Intel is acting about Optane: https://www.semiaccurate.com/2018/05/31/intel-dodges-every-q...

This is the same behaviour as with Intel's LTE chips, where promised features keep slipping (much to Apple's dismay).
I agree. The reality is that electron gets a bad rep because it enables anyone to create "native" application. There are TERRIBLE websites, even many made by very large corporations with otherwise talented developers (cough atlassian cough microsoft), it should come as no surprise there's also be some terrible electron apps. But there are many that are above average among even true native apps (Figma, VSCode, NoSQL Booster, and Spotify come to mind) (Spotify isn't electron afaik, but its all built in web tech).

Conversely, there are some seriously garbage native apps out there. I mean, geeze, just go use iTunes. Its old, granted, and some of the store pages make me think they're just embedded websites, but its also embarrassing given its relative simplicity and Apple's resources. Or go use the new News app. "Native" is relative. Nothing is "native", or maybe everything is "native", its just a word that gets thrown around to mean "it doesn't use the platform's first class UI libraries", even though, newsflash, the MacOS UI framework(s) aren't great.

Electron can be done better than native. You just need a talented team, like any software project.
