Bit of a shame, but I can understand why, that you restrict your analysis to the US, and some US-centric optimisations. Perhaps that should be up front in your article about this. The internet is global after all :)

However I still found a bunch of things really useful (see later).

Yelp as far as I can see from my own experiences isn't really that big of a thing in the UK, but TripAdvisor is, especially for hospitality sector. Google local/My Business is certainly becoming a thing here in the UK as was pointed out to me by a buddy who runs an outdoor activities centre in the Highlands. He has a tremendous understanding of Google and funnelling folks into his biz and banging on about it in the pub the other night.

Also in the UK we don't really have such a thing as BBB that google recognises as boosting the juice. Sure we have the British Chambers of Commerce and the CBI, but they're geared towards much larger businesses than your local SME (Small to Medium Sized Enterprise). There are local "Chambers of Commerce" in each council area, but meh.

That said, I'm working on unfecking a site that's never had image alt tags, no canonical refs (you can get at the same content from multiple URL's), out of nearly 200 pages there was one solitary H1, page titles were a mess...it goes on. The customer paid their previous "agency" a tidy sum for this site and somehow SEO was never looked at.

I did find your article genuinely useful though. I'm a freelancer now, and it seems I need to learn how to SEO as well as be a developer. I look forward to your follow ups.

That community is definitely for protesting the police, but I haven't seen anything calls for violence like this get upvoted or past the mods:

They aren't selling you just chicken, they are selling you the convenience of shelf-stable canned chicken. If you wanted fresh/frozen/cooked chicken, you'd just buy that but instead you buy the canned chicken and you're willing to pay a premium for it for the convenience -- and Costco knows that.

A 25 cent can of soda sold at Costco is almost entirely sugar and water, you could buy a 25 pound bag of sugar and mix up some sugar water at home for a few pennies. (ok, so technically most soda uses HFCS, not sugar)
"The US and most European countries"

More likely European nations are still mostly ethnocentric whereby the clear majority of the populations identify with a group that is historically part of that territory.

Which is fundamentally different from US, Canada, Singapore and even Central/South American nations which have yet another aspect.

"Ancient Rome and Ancient China both prospered economically under these conditions. "

Ancient Rome invaded, plundered, occupied and demanded ongoing massive tributes from it's territories. Even most of the Italian peninsula were technically slaves.

The basis of 'prosperity' in Roman territories mostly boils down to physical security, i.e. 'Pax Romana'

"Nationalism in all it's incarnations has historically been an attempt to reassert tribal balance in favor of some formerly dominant but now sub-dominant group and it rarely ends well for that group."

Maybe you should offer some examples here, because I can't think of a single one.

- Quebec nationalism resulted in a 'quiet revolution' and an officially bilingual federal state.

- Scottish nationalism resulted in devolution.

- Nazi/German nationalism in both World Wars wasn't exactly the reassertion of a 'formerly dominant state' - moreover, now that France is weakened and the UK is 'out' - Germany's dominance of the EU is basically unchallenged.

- Russian nationalism has been fairly strong since the modern concept of nationalism.

- Nationalist movements throughout the post WW2 era resulted in the ostensible freedom of many powers from former colonial rule: Egypt, Libya, Algeria. (That list is very long.)

FYI the modern concept of 'Nationalism' is merely a civic orientation of that which existed before (and still does) i.e. 'ethnicity'.

Sweden and Finland do not share totally arbitrary borders.

The border between Finland and Sweden is such that the relative ethnic populations of Swedes and Finns are contiguous, i.e. Sweden is where the Swedish people live, Finland is where the Finns live - mostly.

The ethnocentric nature of the nation state is still obvious today by the fact that many ethnic Swedes for example live in Finland, and are demarcated as a separate group - not just people who 'speak a different language', bur rather, they are of a different ethnicity than Finns, although technically of the same legal nationality.

Though nationalism is very different in a place like the USS or Canada, it's still forms part of people's natural identity.

Family, tribe, ethnic group, 'nation' (be it ethnic or idealist) are part of who we are; to ignore this would be to ignore the very nature of who we are.

That said, some things, like Scientific knowledge tend to be humanist, i.e. transcending ethnicities, and of course we often need to be reminded of this.
It's sort of a little bit of both. Like for sure their raw gate count is a huge part, but if you go look at a bunch of their acquisitions (particularly looking at Intrinsity here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intrinsity ), they have a lot of really cool techniques for making their designs count even gate for gate. Intrinsity's work is neat, because they didn't really make any uarch changes or increase the gate count really, they just made their Cortex-A8 core way better which lets you judge the work in an apples to apples (lol) way that you normally don't get.
Probably, although I feel as though that perspective about Deming is, unfortunately, a reality for some.
Sorry, I meant the “nyan” in “nyanko”, being an adjective. But thinking about it more, the added “n” syllable probably has more to do with phonetics than language semantics. I studied only basic Japanese and now am pretty rusty.

Implement exceptions. I'm honestly at a loss as to why the Go community hates them so much.
I disagree that statisticians should adjust their definitions to fit common usage.

I can put any probably on anything I want. That doesn’t imply those numbers mean anything usefu or that what I’m doing is backed by any established theory.
You lived in Pullman and didn't attend WSU after high school? I'm quite curious about this. I thought WSU was awesome and if I could have gone without as much debt (living at home) I would have in a heartbeat! Also, the Palouse is such a fantastic place. Pullman in summers was the best. Were you just tired of it by the time you graduated?
Also -- he has a recent response: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-_-5cGEU9S0
I thought for a moment they were going to turn off recommendations. For users not signed in, they are on by default.

Instead this is like asking users to click thumbs up or down in response to an ad, "Don't show me this ad again" or fill out a survey about the ads.

The issue is not that the user is annoyed by a specific toxic video. That is only the effect, not the cause. The issue is that Google's recommendation system is, as they say, "broken". Either fix it to stop promoting "popular" garbage (which is "popular" because it is auto-recommended and auto-played), or turn if off by default.

This is another example of an "opt-out" that most users cannot be bothered with. Instead of sane defaults: recommendations off, auto-play off.

If Google must force users to interact with a particular video and click something so they can collect another data point, then a more sensible approach would be "opt-in". Let users decide whether they want some recommendations based on a particular video they manually select. "Show me recommendation based on this video"

Just more dark patterns. If a choice was one users wanted (recommendations on, auto-play on), then the way to test that is to make them choose it. Instead, Google makes the default choices that benefit Google and requires users to change settings. Often forcing them to sign-in and be tracked in order to change a default setting.

Beats Studio Pro. I can’t use modern Bose because they noise-cancel so strongly that I get severe nausea. They fold nicely (but only for height-width, thickness - earcup diameter - remains unchanged). Noise cancelling is effective enough to forget to turn off a faucet, double-tap power to disable/enable canceling without interrupting sound. Probably work fine enough for calls but I don’t do that with them even though they support it. I often forget I have them on without any music playing, as they’re comfortable and the noise canceling isn’t intrusive.
The sense of being spied on wasn't really what drove me to use an ad blocker. It was the fact that once or twice I got what appeared to be malicious code trying to take over my browser, go to pages I didn't want to go to, and prevent me from leaving, in order to promote some scam. I'm not in fact (even if it's naive) particularly scared of legitimate businesses or the CIA or whatever monitoring me.
“The lessons of history, confirmed by the evidence immediately before me, show conclusively that continued dependence upon relief induces a spiritual and moral disintegration fundamentally destructive to the national fiber. To dole out relief in this way is to administer a narcotic, a subtle destroyer of the human spirit. It is inimical to the dictates of sound policy. It is in violation of the traditions of America.” – FDR

I would say that FDR's observation applies as much to Africa or any other country as it does to America.

Not to say all aid it bad, but the world has been pretty indiscriminate in how it doles out aid to Africa and done a terrible job of observing second and third order effects and consequences that undermine the benefits of aid.

Using an iframe sandbox has some issues:

1. scrollbars and positioning can cause problems with iframes that an inline div doesn't have, especially if there are multiple small iframes on the page.

2. As soon as you allow script in the sandbox iframe, then you are susceptible to these types of fingerprinting attacks. The fact that you have origin isolation doesn't really block what the ad was doing. This is because iframe sandbox was never designed to block fingerprinting attacks, it was design to create a separate origin that gave the dev broad control over features like 'allow js' 'allow access to origin', etc.
Not only incompetent, also untrustworthy, which i.m.o. is even worse.

“The security of HPE customer data is always our top priority”

The story then tells otherwise - they kept relevant information from affected customers and even thwarted their own investigation team to keep customers in the dark.

Clearly public image and short-term financial results were the real priorities.

Also a lot of questions are dodged with the "we have found no evidence in any of our extensive investigations that..." answer that provides full deniability. That only makes it plausible that much more happened here.
> it's your comparison

Nope

> To everyone else, putting it as nicely as possible, it's very off.

As one of the other people, I disagree.

Also note that a lot of the trade regulation groups like the bar associations also ensure a good standing in the "community", so they would sanction whatever equivalent lawyers have to dark patterns, if they were frequent enough/egregious enough.
People only see the downsides but there could be some really cool uses for the technology in image repair, think old paintings, damaged photos, etc. So while yes, this tech starts as unwilling pornography, it could turn into something generally usefully to society.
Again, this is drawn mostly from hazy memories of articles previously read, but my understanding was that plaque on the teeth of people who don't eat a diet high in sugars and refined carbs doesn't cause inflammation, ie it's fairly neutral on the teeth and gums. I'm not trying to start a pseudo-science upswell here, though, so maybe ignore this for the time being.
Anecdotally, that's the case for me. I've been blocking ads since ~2000 because I don't like ads. It's only more recently that I've really stepped up efforts by not allowing third party scripts, using temporary/multi-account containers, using Decentraleyes, stripping identifiers from query strings, etc.

Dunno, I don't use any trees - just a list of tabs on the side (Tab Center Redux). I usually use the browser only on one monitor while having something else on the other, and even if I do have two windows, this doesn't seem to be a problem for me in practice.
If the scale at which we do farming is taking its toll on the environment at our level of productivity and knowledge, I can only imagine that less productive and less knowledgeable countries will have a much larger negative impact on the environment.

The countries they would buy food from are probably in a much better position to mitigate the harmful effects of industrialized farming. The question is whether this can be done at a price point that is affordable for Africa.

Well, trivially, a dynamical system with that switches between two states is ergodic. We always know what the past state of the system was given the present.

No, ergodicity is more about visiting the each part of the phase space with some positive frequency i.e. on a long trajectory you see everything that can happen, and not too infrequently.
This isn't a refutation of a single thing that I said. "There's calls for violence elsewhere" doesn't negate any point I made. Do these communities have similar heavy-handed moderation practices? Do they also break tooling that communities use to self-police like the downvote button or report button? Do they also have rules that openly and proudly ban any posts or content that doesn't fit with their narrative?

This ban wasn't about an isolated instance of calls for violence slipping through. It is the culmination of years of cultivating a community and moderation practices that have made the admins have to interfere a disproportionate amount relative to the rest of reddit. You can find examples of bad behavior from individuals on any subreddit, but can you find a pattern of behavior that breeds and incites it driven by the moderators of a community itself?

Fewer units? They have arm processors in every iPhone, iPad and AppleTV. At least 70 million units a quarter. The Mac CPUs would need more cores/threads (perhaps octocore).
I think the uploader doesn't even have to be the one paying now. If I remember right, Coke can pay for someone's positive Coke related video to be shown more and it bypasses the sponsorship disclosure requirements.

This is just plain wrong. The poster didn't say they were at a standstill but that they had the brake pedal pressed. That means the engine could have downshifted into 1st gear and started to rev noticeably. The engine would also produce more power (and sound very different) when taking up load, even under the same RPM. Finally, as the other reply pointed out, the engine can spin a clutch or CVT.

No one has even try to give any convincing argument for ARM on Mac. And yet everyone seems to believe it as Fact.

1. There are articles that suggest Apple could move the Macbook, MacBook Air to their own ARM SoC, and leave the higher end MacBook Pro, Mac Pro, iMac on x86-64 for Professional Apps. In the case How is the Macbook different to iPad Pro with Keyboard? It is one thing to have a transition between two ISA, it is another thing to have the platform permanently on two ISA.

2. Is Apple going to spend hundreds of millions a year just to invest into Mac Desktop / high performance CPU, for use in iMac and Mac Pro CPU that runs from 100W to 220W. The Desktop Mac represent 20% of all Mac unit, that is roughly 4M. Majority of those are iMac, not iMac Pro or Mac Pro with high TDP.

3. If Apple want to lower its reliance on Intel ( After it has all of its modem and wireless patents sort out with Intel ), why not just use AMD to leverages the price or switch to AMD. AMD gets the PR win for Apple using it, win win for both companies.

4. The rumours would have some ground before WWDC, but Apple just announced a monster Mac Pro. Catering for real Hollywood professionals and Rack Mount Mac Pro for Servers.
The thing is, they don't have to make a call. This is a non-problem where a change to `go fmt` would suffice (i.e. changing fmt to eliminate the line breaks in `if err != nil { return err }`).

This is the C# 9.0-ification of a language. Let's add more constructs because we're compiler developers and that's what we do.
Even if I'm 100% completely wrong, please compare the comments here versus the comments on r/haskell. The difference is night and day.

https://www.reddit.com/r/haskell/comments/c5dfuw/implement_w...

Surely this is the difference of (more) appropriate context & audience.

Maybe this is just a case of the loudest people on HN being the most disapproving of haskell somehow, but just about all the top level comments except for mine and the bottom one are critical of haskell because of the perceived complexity of the code that was posted.
Net food exporters are typically countries with a lot of arable land or with relatively low populations. This includes the US, Canada, Argentina, Brazil, Australia, New Zealand, Ukraine, and a few others.

However, they have a lot of existing customers in Europe and Asia who appear to have better prospects for generating foreign exchange to buy food than does Africa. Africa generates foreign exchange mainly by selling raw materials, such as metals, petroleum, etc. Labor, per se, appears to have declining value as population increases and as AI automates more and more work. The incremental value of another billion workers is very low.

Is this really newsworthy? Sounds like an accomplished person, but is it really a key hire??
I absolutely agree - Arabic is a beautiful language and a joy to learn, and it is particularly appealing for those who enjoy structure and regularity (e.g. CS and math folk!). Be forewarned, though - the significant differences between MSA (modern standard Arabic, the focus of most "Arabic" courses/material) and regional/national dialects (and the differences between those various dialects themselves) may make it a bit less practical than you'd hope (and a source of disappointment when you go to actually speak with people!).

Permit me to plug a pet project of mine:

http://arabicreference.com

It's basically an online version of Hans Wehr, the de facto standard dictionary for students of Arabic. You can search by root or by word and provides form I vowelling, masadir (infinitives), broken plurals, and other useful information organized by form. I know there exist other good dictionaries out there, but I never found one I quite liked as a reference as much as I enjoyed Hans Wehr. I hope someone else finds it useful! (I've been neglecting it a bit recently, so I apologize for any bugs and for the lack of an SSL cert).
Until now, while most people don't use ad-blockers and browsers have accepted third-party cookies, there's an advantage to loading a resource from another domain, since an ID created and stored by doubleclick.net on site A could be read by doubleclick.net on site B, allowing for cross-domain tracking. As third-party cookies increasingly get blocked, I think we'll see that more and more.

Umm, you do realize that Apple has a large design team and outsources Fab to TSMC? Their iPhone/iPAD/AppleTV hardware platforms already run on their own ARM chip design. They SHIP over 70 MILLION units a quarter. They have the R&D teams already churning out new designs each year.

How is this risky?
