DMCA was a reaction to the digitization of media. People were sharing pirated media faster than companies could take them down. Some of these people hid behind websites that provided varying degrees of anonymity.

How the tables have turned. Companies are now the ones hiding behind anonymized parties that use bots to scan and take down everything that might be related. In this case it's not even remotely related.

What optimizations is Go not doing that Rust is that makes Rust vastly superior to Go? (Or even superior at all)

I don’t think it’s that simple. I understand Go uses garbage collection but that doesn’t automatically mean Go doesn’t do compile time optimizations or is poor at CPU bound work.

While I understand GCs add overhead I don’t think that in and of itself means much here

This seems like yak shaving to me
Isn't the intended audience of the article non-french speakers? So he writes it in a "universal" language so you could apply it on "how to learn <X> in 12 months" where X is your non-native tongue.
I think a better strategy would have been to have an ugly and outdated mobile site where users cannot install RES.

Honestly learning french was incredibly easy when I did it in school. I just was too lazy to actually put in the effort. To learn vocabulary all I did was write down the french word and based on that say the translated word and then do the opposite. That's it. It just stuck in my head. Then when I decided to use Anki I added 350 words it didn't even take me a week to learn them. It was so incredibly easy that I just did 150 words per day. I can't say the same about Asian languages. Those refuse to stick even at a moderate pace of 30 words per day.
Yes of course it's important to note that screens are huge enablers of passive consumption.

But the way we name things is important. Calling it passive consumption yields all sorts of interesting questions. Is the sickness of Facebook/Instagram any different from that of Netflix/YouTube? How about than Fox news? Does it actually matter what age you are? How much is bad? Does live theater count? What about a concert?

Parents deserve the nuanced result/questions when deciding what is right for their children and selves (if indeed my supposition is correct ish). Calling it screen time is lazy science until it is shown to be unique to screens (which would be an immense surprise to me)
Seconds are indeed a fundamental unit of the metric system.

You can then use the standard multipliers and get things like kiloseconds and megaseconds, milliseconds and nanoseconds, some which are widely used, while some are not.

You the can also use legacy minutes and hours, which are based off the fundamental seconds unit, but that doesn't make them "metric", nor technically a SI unit (although it's accepted to be used alongside SI units. "Although not an SI unit, the minute is accepted for use with SI units" Source https://www.bipm.org/en/publications/si-brochure/)
A cop already carries thousands of dollars worth of equipment. For example you modify the police radio to transmit to nearby vehicles.
The only thing you can really do is unsubscribe from literally everything, and choose much more boutique groups that are related to your specific interests. For example /r/multicopter/ is a half decent resource for quadcopters and various hobby drones, or /r/destinythegame is a useful resource for a specific video game. The page /r/alaskanmalamute is a friendly community of people who own Malamute dogs.

Everything that has millions of random people joined to it has become a cesspool of lowest common denominator clickbait posts and photos.
Here's a really interesting site showing how the UK's 3G/4G/5G spectrum is allocated.

https://pedroc.co.uk/content/uk-commercial-mobile-spectrum

It's pretty clear that Three's spectrum is woefully lacking compared to the others, except on 5G and the LTE SDL band 32 (both not widely deployed yet).

Especially problematic when you consider that Three are the ones who have been selling super cheap unlimited data packages for the last couple of years!
I do almost everything like you said. But my kid wakes up at 700, and we could play or read chapter from a book for 30 minutes when my wife working on breakfast. When i came back from work at 1900 i'll either play with wife/kid in the yard, or i could read books/draw/play with kid, while my wife working on dinner, or we switch here (i'm cooking, she playing).

And my daughter has 20 minutes screen time a day. She choose on what to spend it between game on mobile, game on PC or cartoons on TV.
I think the word usually used here is "technological" species.

Powerful questions are disruptive. They invite revolution.

Corporations HATE disruptive questions. They destabilize the status quo and the large scale infrastructure that relies on it. They embarrass executives who can't answer them with a platitude or deflective business-speak. And they leave stockholders less confident that the company is on track to predictably increase share value next quarter.

Universities dislike revolutionary questions because professors are just as dependent on status quo as corporate executives are. Revolutionary ideas dispose of all that hard earned expertise you developed in the past decades and force you to start over, reduced in rank from being a renowned expert to just another student. Worse still, such questions require rethinking and replacing too many models and theories, consuming much too much development time to ship yet another incremental research paper in time for the gauntlet of conferences, thereby letting your academic life's blood. They also tend to irritate and/or confuse others who do peer review and/or approve funding.

No. Powerful questions can't be too powerful. Consider Galileo or Darwin or Einstein. If the three had depended on the support of their peers to sustain their careers, then after asking their Magnum Opii, all would have perished.
Ah, that is unfortunate (and hopefully not how all new reddit features will be handled.) I’m glad to know it isn’t the developer’s fault.
1) When John Cutler (https://www.linkedin.com/in/johnpcutler/) wrote this article in 2016 - he was working for pendo.io that already got ~$13.3M in funding:

https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/pendo-io#section-fun...

Eventually pendo.io accumulated $208.3M in funding.

2) John Cutler now works for Amplitude (pendo.io competitor) that received $136M in funding:

3) Amplitude looks more successful than pendo:

Probably the latter. Anything that reveals how the NSA and other agencies operate is interesting.
>Getty took public domain images and added arbitrary usage limits on them by (fraudulently) claiming to be the sole copyright holder.

The article states this is not the case.

"It acknowledges that the images are in the public domain, but still maintains that it has the right to charge a fee for distributing the material. “Distributing and providing access to public domain content is different to asserting copyright ownership of it,” Getty says."
I think it’s reasonably priced.
I think it hinders our ability to identify an unsolved problem, I'm always left wondering if there's no easy answer to the question I asked Google or if I just wrote the wrong query.
The feeling is that there's always an answer, someone already did or thought about that and wrote it somewhere, on Stack Overflow or a personal blog, and I just didn't write the right Google query yet.
Yo, Apollo dev here. FWIW there's no team, just me.

To answer some of these, Apollo was created well before the Reddit redesign, I started working on it back in 2014.

I'm not sure I 100% understand the criticism though. Inviting you to scroll through an app is a pretty normal thing, isn't it? What's the alternative?

I'm gathering you'd prefer more of a comments-focused experience rather than one focused around the posts themselves specifically? I've been on Reddit for over a decade, as far as I remember the posts have always been paramount and what attract people to the site, even though the discussions are great too. They're just a tap away. As you mentioned you can go into compact mode, then disable the thumbnails and you've basically got Hacker News, haha.

Your criticism seems like more of a comment on Reddit as a platform/community rather than a specific app (though I'm not sure what you mean by "old Reddit", Alien Blue?), but if I'm wrong about that I'm happy to hear any criticism.
gabapentin gave me full on Parkinson’s symptoms. They would take several days to hit, and several days to resolve from a single pill. So it took a couple months to figure out what was going on.

Doctors had no clue what was going on.

Some of these meds are beyond scary.

Kids still wake up from nightmares of having family and teachers preparing them from what seemed a likely funeral.

See a different doctor and explain symptoms. “Oh yes, it some times does that.”

Getting correct diagnosis and meds is such a tricky topic.
Basically you have unnecessary production capacity losing money the majority of the time, which can only pay off during infrequent emergencies.

Then if price-gouging laws prevent you from charging more during an emergency you won't make your money back.

well i am actively encouraging and doing the opposite, i.e. using them. this is the wrong level of abstraction you are thinking about this problem from.
You can do this already with DataTables, which is basically an in-memory Excel spreadsheet. Bonus is that it also supports Excel functions, and it’s completely safe/sandboxed code.
I find the timeline believable but I’m impressed (and happy!) to see this worked with self-study. I lived abroad for a while and found I was able to pick up the local language pretty quickly because I was fully immersed in it, by 6 mo. I was comfortably conversational for day to day things. However, I would also caution for anyone wanting to learn a language at home, it’s a muscle and it does fade when you don’t use it. After a decade back in the states I’ve lost the majority of the language I learned since there’s no one around to use it with.
Dude that's unfair. I cannot control the sorting of comments.
"Trickle-down

For what it may be worth, there has been another, longer official response, w/ more good info: https://newsroom.churchofjesuschrist.org/article/use-of-the-... . (It links to reports froml interviews. One of the above links also itself links to other further info.)
Yo, Apollo dev here. Could you clarify a bit? There's a setting to make Apollo always use reader mode for websites, and you can create/edit/view multireddits in Apollo as well, I don't think Alien Blue even had multireddit support? (https://www.reddit.com/r/AlienBlue/comments/2kd9yz/does_alie...)
Play custom game, survival mode and see how many waves you can survive. I think the campaign is more of a tutorial thing and to have a mode with a sense of progression.
If anything, a mention (a real one) should be thought of as free publicity for their shitty who-cares show! Like if you had a mind to firmly put an end to any possibility of a viral word-of-mouth campaign (which is the fondest wish of most producers of attention-based product e.g. entertainment, but let's say you were a dangerously stupid one), this is how you would do it.
Most engineers at Google never talk to non-engineers, the requirements gathering comes instead from looking at code, reading design docs and talking to other engineers.
/r/SpaceX is still spectacular, and there doesn't seem much reason to migrate away.
Agree. But if new person is marketing misses something nbd. If transaction system X or Y stop then continuity is essentially.

With that said/in mind, I couple probably take the stand that this is because (e.g., marketing or finance) believe app dev/IT is identical to them. Bad assumption. Very bad assumption.
I've certainly not figured it out, but I think I'm allowed to make criticisms of a study and how it's reported. And further to describe what I think is a reasonable guess at the underlying cause. It's likely my guess is incomplete or even wrong. But I think it's even more likely that screens are a bogeyman.
Is there a CliffsNotes version of the content?
If you copy a reddit link to the clipboard and then open Apollo it will ask if you want to open the link. It doesn't work everytime but good enough.

Pentel Graphgear1000 0.7mm

I prefer the thinner lines of a 0.5mm pencil, but I'm old enough that it's pretty obvious I'm never going to learn to not break the tiny leads.

Edit: A Japanese friend introduced me to Pentel's black erasers. I've found what appears to be the same product in the United States, but they're shorter, so I generally try to find some place I can buy them from over there, despite the extra cost.
Thanks, apologies for your loss in productivity. :P Great criticism too, re: notifications being a bit slow, that's something I'm working to improve; being an iOS dev the backend web stuff isn't my strongest programming suit, so I'm working to improve that or at least get someone who knows more to be able to help me there.

Chat's a little trickier, I've talked to Reddit about that and they don't seem particularly interested in granting access to third party devs for whatever reason, even though they have an open API for basically everything else, and they said a few years back they were looking into it.

Very impressive progress. I think it speaks to the author's commitment and dedication, as adding 50 new cards per day is a lot. Most people will burn out pretty quickly at that rate. I recommend something like 10-20 per day. I'm also one of those people that say you should make your own cards from material you're immersing in. When going through a predefined list of words like that I think you're bound to end up learning a bunch of words that you'll never encounter (at least not for a long time), and a bunch of words that you'll have no idea how to use correctly.

I wrote an article[0] about my own method for language learning, focusing mainly on the spaced repetition aspect.

It reminds me a little of how I learnt English myself. Out of high school I was really bad and really wanted to change that. I switched all my video games to English, started watching 4 to 5 hours of TV shows/movies in English a day, reading books in English, etc etc. I definitely wasn't as intense as the author, but I think it worked pretty well considering that now I live in the US as a US citizen :)
I thought it was to allow/support Luthor-to-Superman communications? I'm joking of course. I agree with you actually...When others think something is due to incompetence, i feel these companies are nothing more than sneaky and shady.
Upwork. You still need to be good at vetting and managing devs though.
I don’t agree. Apollo makes it so much easier to read comments than reddit.com does because of its design choices and the way it handles collapsed comments.

I also write longer comments when I’m using it.

The “skimability” of the posts you scroll through depend so much on what you subscribe to. I don’t have that issue due to what I read on there. I don’t think it’s Apollo’s place to make photo subs or askreddit harder to scan.
Am I the only one who scrolled down the whole list looking for the questions and issues you can bring up as a coworker? On the 1-on-1's I have with my manager I determine most of the agenda because I know where the gears need lubrication. How would she know if I don't tell her?

I'm a professional and I don't need a boss who tells me what to do or how to do it: that part I'll find out by myself. But my manager needs to know what I'm doing and what issues I could use help with (like problems that need attention of upper management) and occasionally I'll ask for backing for a decision that might have consequences for our or other teams.

So this feels like a useful but very lopsided list.
It depends on what you’re optimizing for. Having a laptop that has the battery life of an iPad would definitely be an upgrade.
Yes challenge is much better suited than surprise in this list. Thank you
I'm working on an iPad app that takes better advantage of what it can offer, for sure. As it stands it's basically a blown up version of the iPhone app with an extra day's work tacked on top, the new version I'm working on is a ton better. :)
Alibris is great - though I have suspicions that it’s now dominated by warehouses and thrift store ‘chains’ rather than independent retail book stores.
SELinux supports MLS as well.
Fair enough you'd want a like-for-like comparison. Even without changing the default configuration, upgrading the JS packages would improve their speed somewhat.

Unfortunately I am not aware of a large public ES codebase to test against. Most projects use Typescript as you mentioned. You could grab the ES bundle made by several projects and test against that, but that also wouldn't be a fair comparison.

The results in https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/406394/74600139-d1... are very informative. It matches my expectations.

I've been studying the Go code in esbuild - very clean and extensible. I think this project has a lot of potential. Thanks for sharing it with the world.
I'm surprised that you're surprised. As far as I understand it one of the fundamental differences between what we generally call 'leftists' and 'liberals' is that the latter think we should solve problems by talking and trying to understand, whereas the former considers this as silly as expecting a slave to sit down with his masters and discuss the inconvenience of the beatings and workload.

Better for the slaves to sit down and write complex analyses on what is wrong about slavery and bicker amongst themselves about the details (I joke)!

But anyways, obviously most 'leftists' wouldn't equate slavery with their own situation, and I'd argue most of them do want to go as far as possible through understanding and conversation. But to some degree I'd say that's the basic point of view.
Not only is Apollo the best Reddit app for iOS, it might be one of the best 3rd-party iOS apps out there, period.

It’s incredibly well-designed, very fast, and it’s updated very consistently. Christian, the developer, is a former Apple guy, and it shows — the level of attention and care he puts in is unparalleled.

I’d love a hand-curated (by someone with good taste) list of apps of this quality. Anyone know of one?
If you’re going to allow internet bullies to curbstomp your user bases maybe your product sucks and you should go out of business. “There’s nothing we could’ve done” - bullshit.

This is like defending the use of indiscriminate radio jammers to prevent tracking via bluetooth, or wifi, or cell service.

Hey! I know you’re working on it. I should have mentioned how good you are about community engagement and accepting feedback; we’ve interacted on other channels and a couple of my suggestions got in the app. :)
Right. The brain is like a muscle, and if it's not being engaged or challenged, then what would you expect?

You could replace these studies with: "Not using the brain is bad for the brain."

The screen itself is basically a red herring. What's on the screen matters. There's a big difference between interacting with a puzzle or strategy game and passively consuming a video, for example.
Also, if you don’t mind me asking, what kind of support from your manager would be helpful in this situation?
As a long time emacs org mode user, I would say that both vim/emacs users (and others) should check out asciidoc/asciidoctor. I have been doing more and more things in them and find myself really enjoying the simplicity (and shareability with those who don't emacs/vim) mainly when targetting html or pdf exporting. I find myself wishing there was an org mode to asciidoc exporter lately.
