Surprised the author didn't mention Quill.js, which works really well with ShareDB, and is fully open source. We've been doing a lot of fun stuff with it - here's a talk I gave recently as a job talk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gN37rJRmISQ. (It worked, I got hired :)). As a side project, I'm working on a ShareDB backed wiki, where we can use rich text for editing pages, but also other components, like spreadsheets or mindmaps, and everything supports live editing - I think it would be amazing for classrooms, hackathons, any kind of meeting etc. Would love to talk with anyone interested in collaborating. I have been waiting for a few features to complete to make a proper demo video, but this early one shows off some of the ideas: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9-lU-in3ydc (https://github.com/chili-epfl/FROG)
Apparently this is Android 8.0 in background (according to youtube comments).
Looks promising, maybe we have distraction free phone coming.

I would kill for a phone like this with Whatsapp or Viber or Messenger and not only SMS (reduces communication costs a lot).
Cool question, I would probably agree just to get the feature out (if it's really essential) but at the condition that the first thing that will be done after release is to change those methods otherwise it will never be done.
Not really. I use tmux + vim on a daily basis, but it starts with having just one cursor. Goes on with not being web-based and in the end, it has no offline collaboration support (that requires some kind of merge strategy).

So yes, there are some use-cases when it is sufficient for collaboration, but most certainly not for the use-cases described in the blog post.
If I am allowed to daydream freely, a huge fusion reactor with a gasoline pipeline flowing from it, is (in my mind) a beautiful thing.
Good question - being in a somewhat cloudy part of the world I wonder what effect weather would have on this kind of system. Can you only defend yourself on clear days?
I've experienced that exact bad trip, at it was horrible enough that I have never done psychedelics since. The one time in my life I thought I was dead. Not worth the risk to try again.

Plenty of other drugs that have real benefits without as much potential for a bad trip. MDMA is much more my speed.
> I'm getting the feeling that the popularity of JSON and HTTP come by good part from the lack of good parsing libraries in many languages. People generally only know how to work with what regexes are able to handle and nothing more.

Even if you have good parsing libraries, parser combinators, etc, you still need to write the grammar - which can be hard if you are not accustomed to that... years after I still find an occasional bug in grammars I've written in the past. Compare this to JSON over HTTP which ends up basically being

var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
xhr.open('GET', "https://my/api.json", true);
xhr.onreadystatechange = function(e) { var response = JSON.parse(xhr.responseText); }

what other format allows to get objects over the network that easily, without any special libraries ?

> I enjoy reading a lot of web comics (Girl Genius, Gunnerkrigg Court, PA, etc), but have _always_ wanted an RSS feed or similar that would make it trivial to read / continue-reading a comic that doesn't update every day.

I don't know what PA is, but Girl Genius and Gunnerkrigg Court have RSS feeds that tell you when a new page is available. Of the webcomics I read, only a very small minority doesn't support RSS, although that might be selection bias on my part. Most seem to be using some kind of WordPress plugin specialized for comic websites, which provides RSS support out of the box.

It's not the question of keyword chosen, but rather where it should go.

I wrote a lot of async/await code in C#, where it's a prefix operator, and I think what they did makes more sense. C# syntax works great when all you're doing is awaiting on a single call per line, but as soon as you start doing e.g. method chaining, you have to put parentheses everywhere, and it gets real messy real fast. This looks cleaner.
Some of us are not focussed on building our brand identity. I enjoy photography and back in the day my Flickr portfolio had 500k views. I still take photographs, but don’t now post them online because I want to enjoy the craft of creating them, not help others maximise engagement or similar
The YAL-1 ( horribly nonstandard designation ) was addressing a different and much harder problem; destroying ballistic missiles in the ascent phase at considerable range.

However destroying magnitude-smaller, nearby air-to-air missiles is much more achievable and was demonstrated by the NKC-135 / Airborne Laser Lab project back in 1979-85. Yes, 40 years ago.

Microsoft Natural Ergonomic Keyboard 4000

It's awesome and well within your budget. Not mechanical, though. It's perfect for wrist strain as it gives your wrist a resting place.

But if you have strain on your wrists, consider adjusting your table and chair height. Your elbows should be about even height with your keyboard.

I cannot promise to follow all the directions, but I'll do some modifications in Luda according to your advice.

Thanks!

You would, if you were scrupulous, compile your C program with a C++ compiler to prove absolutely that C cannot be faster than C++, before going on to make the C++ version faster, using features that do not exist in C. .

Your benchmarks demonstrate only that it is possible to write slow code in any language, even a fast one.

It would be easy enough to make the C programs equally slow, still proving nothing about either language.

Worth noting that Project Astoria was shelved before release, and WSL came out after Windows Phones final release.

So technically WSL was not intended to be used for porting android apps.

But they did use Project Astoria as at starting ground to create WSL.
Someone still has to build those libraries full of value types, and build the necessary abstractions on top of low level pointer laden OS APIs. For a game engine programmer, that means dealing with new console hardware with new DMA controller and graphics APIs in concurrent environments where performance is critical.

If anything, low-level memory fiddling is becoming more common and more widespread. Vulkan and D3D12 get lower level than ever before in what they expose. Webassembly brings pointers back to webpages like it's the 1990s and we're rocking ActiveX. I fear I'm soon going to have to start running address sanitizer for webpages.

People tell me modern C++ solves this problem, but supposed examples of it invariably underwhelm me. I suspect people claiming such just have lower standards. MIRSA C can help. NASA-level piles of documentation and rules and restraint can help. Enough unit tests that you start to catch more compiler bugs than library bugs can help. Drowning the end user in the false positives produced by modern C++ static analysis tools can help. Thorough fuzz testing can help. But these are ancient techniques, not modern. Combine all that and more and, yeah, you can actually get kinda close to practicing safe C++. But this level of care is rarely practiced.

No, the real problem I think is very few people are capable of the skill, patience, and fortitude to write strictly correct C++, and they rarely have the time to. And absolutely none of them were born with that power. Fresh blood will learn from their mistakes, and we will pay for those mistakes in sweat, tears, missed milestones, and CVEs.

I'd love to be proven wrong. C++ pays my bills and has a great ecosystem in a lot of ways - I'd love if it were salvagable. Meanwhile, the last C++17 upgrade attempt I saw failed when we decided we were unwilling to maintain a fork of the standard library to fix compilation issues in the vendor's implementation for one of our platforms.

Most languages that offer tuples, either use (), or just treat commas as "tuple operator" anywhere they don't have another meaning already. And this goes a long time back.

Function calls can then be treated as functions from a single tuple argument, as is idiomatic in SML.

Am I the only one to see echoes of Cold War stories, with spies and spymasters respecting each other and The Game more than they do their own military personnel...? It’s like Smiley had been told Karla’s office was purposefully bombed.

If humans ever managed to eventually move most or all conflicts to cyber methods, would that make us more civilized? Are we turning war into a game of bits, or are we tainting the networked Utopia with our never-extinguished bestial instincts?
My use-case isn't similar to the ones described in the blog post.

You could easily make tmux + vim web-based if you desire (I don't see why, I'd just use Mosh or SSH instead). For merging you could abstract the content to a Git repository. For multiple cursors you could try Wemux [1].

What many people not fully grasp, at first sight, is that offline support for a collaborative editor is at least an order of magnitude more complex than just building a collaborative editor. In online collaborative environments, solving conflicts is relatively simple, as the changes are supposed to be small. But when two (or more) people are working on the same document without synching it for hours or days, the merge strategy has to be extremely good to come up with anything remotely intended (assuming the authors had a common intention).

So just because your favorite editor can be used offline and it has an (online) collaboration feature, does not mean it is capable of being an offline-capable collaborative editor.

Hey,

just had a very brief look out of sheer curiosity, so please take this quick feedback with a grain of salt: The running times of your Python notebook get longer and longer with each print() statement and cell. While the reproducibility of your python notebook is a wonderful thing to have, I think the performance decrease is very strong downside.

ADHD medication includes Ritalin and Adderall. Both have stimulant/amphetamine like effects to those without ADHD.
You can see the window for abuse and addiction here is pretty huge.

Children misdiagnosed with ADHD can get hooked on this stuff (I don't have a source for that, but its what I've heard).

More commonly, college/highschool students can get them pretty easily to cram for an exam or finish an assignment in one night, or at least that's what they're told by movies and TV (but I'm told by a friend that it really is effective in getting a lot of work done in a small timeframe).
Python also chains methods. And having to write (await (await (await foo).bar()).baz()) is annoying.

I found this recent paper highly enlightening: “Real Differences between OT and CRDT for Co-Editors”–
Chengzheng Sun, David Sun, Agustina, Weiwei Cai, October 2018.

Arxiv meta: https://arxiv.org/abs/1810.02137

PDF: https://arxiv.org/pdf/1810.02137.pdf

It’s well written imo. The conclusions chapter is very good.

“In this work, we have critically reviewed and evaluated representative OT and CRDT solutions, with respect to correctness, time and space complexity, simplicity, applicability in real world co- editors, and suitability in peer-to-peer co-editing. The evidences and evaluation results from this work disprove superiority claims made by CRDT over OT on all accounts.”

And it is also argued that OT is a more direct approach to the fundamental issues of realtime multiuser editing, and that that directness brings effectiveness.

How much emissions do you expect from production and disposal of your machines? How big an impact will that have over the entire life cycle of your hardware?
Thanks for the component you provided for shared cursors in text areas (https://github.com/convergencelabs/html-text-collab-ext). I've been using it with ShareDB, and have been working on adapting it to work with single text inputs, which has been surprisingly difficult (mainly dealing with scroll/overflow behaviour).
Asset backed securities aren't really new: funnily enough, the same models that are used to price and work with mortgage backed securities can be rapidly hacked to work for credit card debt, mobile homes and well, pretty much anything else out there.

Both browsers offer sideloaded extensions as well as open source cores that can be set to use their own stores.

Do you factor the carbon that went into producing the solar panels and wind turbines?
It vastly depends on the product, but it is a question worth asking over and over again when we design products.

It has historically been plastic because it is cheap and readily altered to match the exact needs of the product. Rigid, soft, rugged, smooth, coarse, we can make a plastic suit.

Plastic cups are a good example, we have numerous materials at our disposal but we make disposable cups and containers out of plastic. Even bio-degradable plastic cups are a bad choice of material, as they take special circumstances to break down that many municipalities don't provide for and most users aren't carrying their bio degradable cups home to put in their compost. If they end up in the ocean, they will last just as long as other plastics. So that is bad product design, it doesn't take the full product lifecycle into account and ignores even it's typical usage of just a single serve drink used once.

Plastics have spoiled us too, so in many cases there probably isn't an alternative that is just as good. We may just have to accept that and find ways to make better materials out of more sustainable sources.

The Israel-Palestine conflict runs by its own rules, or rather lack thereof. With the exception of nuclear holocaust, if there is a line or threshold to cross, you can bet someone involved in that problem has already crossed it. It’s like humanity felt obliged to have a reference implementation of all the worst behaviour it might engage in, conveniently located at the intersection of three continents.
That's a great question.

One of the differences is real-time games do motion prediction, to hide latency. I haven't heard of editors doing so.
That's basically what I'm trying to build - we're starting with Quill.js and ShareDB, adding extensions, configuring, and then adding a plugin system based on React, which can take arbitrary components all based on ShareDB sync (think spreadsheets, forms, but I'd also love to integrate the Pyiodide stuff to have runnable Python code inside a rich text document, etc). We built this as part of a synchronous collaborative learning platform, but I'm currently trying to extract the key components so that it can be a stand-alone open source library that others can help build on.

I find it interesting that there's a disproportionately large amount of these kinds of stories that come out of the US (compared to other western countries). As you said, there should be enough educated/financially able/motivated people in these areas that would mobilize and do something about it.
Just to add my own experience. I am an experienced user of psychedelics with a lot of trips under my belt. The last time I took LSD I wound up thinking that my existence on earth was part of a universe that I myself had generated as the totality of subjective consciousness and thought I had control over it.

In a fit of excitable mania I ran around my sitter's home and leapt off their second story balcony. I'm still recovering from a broken heel, fractured T10 and fractured collar bone.

I had spent weeks planning and determining how best to organise the experience. I am now confident that no matter how much you try to minimise negative outcomes, they _can_ happen. Though they're probably rare.

My point is, please just be very careful.

Fair enough. I didn't want to live with the loss of the Fn keys as much as anything. But my decision to jump the Apple ship was also partly economic, and if not for that additional pressure I'm not sure what I would have done.

So after a long time having been OS X-exclusive, for the past year I've used both Windows 10 and Linux. I've really been equally happy and frustrated with each - all 3 of the majors have their strengths and weaknesses. I think OS X overall has the balance I prefer, but it's by a far smaller margin than I would have thought, say, 5 years ago.
The official IDF Twitter account @IDF posted something rather distasteful about the attack:

“CLEARED FOR RELEASE: We thwarted an attempted Hamas cyber offensive against Israeli targets. Following our successful cyber defensive operation, we targeted a building where the Hamas cyber operatives work.

Counterproductive and narrative losing if you ask me.
Why are people assuming this is only usable by alt-right, hitleresque people?
This is a fantastic tool for users to 'dissent' locked wikipedia articles, political posts on news sites, and perhaps is a better version of twitter itself.

It is evident megacorps are manufacturing consent on a colossal scale - tools like this become critical and necessary for freedom of speech. I just can't comprehend the want for people to shut down discourse.

You think they're going to disappear and change their opinion or is it more likely they become radicalised at a world which won't even provide a platform for discussion?
It's likely been installed on more than a million devices too.
My theory is they probably work full-time, and do not have the time or monies to lobby at the state and local level.
