Roslyn's parser and syntax tree is pretty amazing. You can recreate the precise source text from the parse tree up to whitespace. This sort of "bijective parsing" is truly incredible and probably one of the cooler innovations I've seen in parsing technology. I can see a bunch of really interesting ideas that you could do with bijective parsing. For instance, imagine Rails style boilerplate generation but done at a semantics aware, within file basis. You could conceivably have a code generator that finds a class, introspects if it has the corresponding method, then generates it if not.

Or imagine syntax reformatting but purely locally. Or semantically aware git diffs that can actually compare the underlying parse trees instead of just raw text. There's so much cool stuff you can do. I wish every language had a parser like this.
Okay, or directly descended from an instruction set designed by Intel :P
In .NET standard (i.e. not .NET Core) you can load and unload assemblies without tearing down whole processes by creating AppDomains within a process. You then load your desired assemblies into these app domain(s), consume and when you need to load say a newer DLL version you just tear down the AppDomain and create a new one for the new DLL's.

It's a feature that's been around since .NET 1.1 and I used to use heavily 10+ years ago.

I'd be remiss to not point out: the latest version of Tumult Hype [1] added vector shape animation, line drawing, and morphing. It uses SVG under the hood, though SVGs cannot be imported currently.

The shape morphing intelligently figures out the best morph such that the from- and to- shapes can have vastly different control points.

It's a difficult problem. Unless a majority-marketshare browser does that as well (and we know that Chrome certainly won't), a lot of websites might choose to block all Firefox users instead.

And perhaps you and I know how to disable an ad blocker selectively. An average user might simply see problems with websites and uninstall Firefox as "not working", tanking its marketshare even more.

So Google doesn't necessarily factor into that decision, really.
The problem you describe is also fixed by any language that is explicit about stateful behaviour and effects. It's not an inherent property of having a long function, just of having insufficient control over mutable state (or poor discipline in using the available controls).

In my WeChat feed, I've seen a lot of panic about not being able to buy face masks or Shuanghuanglian and other kinds of traditional medicine, as well as outrage about the city of Dali intercepting shipments of face masks destined for other regions. "Everything's fine and under control" looks more like a minority opinion. Of course that could be biased by me attracting a certain kind of people, but ironically the harshest critics of the government in this case have been people I think of as "strong China" patriots/nationalists. Turns out they react especially negatively to government failures.

> and not living at all. If people like you had your way, life as we know it would pretty much end

Lmao. What an utter exaggeration. You're so full of shit. If you need to travel every year through the globe in order for your life to be worth living or have any meaning, your life is fucking empty and not worth living. You can live an amazing life without going to China or New Zealand. Are you fucking kidding me? You're not able to argue in good faith. Fuck off.
Exactly - so I wouldn't expect N26 to have a particularly large customer base there (could be completely wrong though) if what they are offering isn't particulalry innovative by their standards.
I have shown my children my bank account quite early (which is not very usual on France where we are very secretive about money) so that

- they know they are financially safe (everyone is taking about money disasters, I wanted to lower their stress)

- they realize that money comes from somewhere (salary) and goes to many places (tax, food, internet,...).

This made them think about spending and fortunately we live in a place where there is no peer pressure on fashionable items.

I think that getting our of poverty requires either a zillion generations (you made the case of teaching the right things at school), or having a determined parent to explain how to get money (education, employment) and keep it (having a lifestyle adapted to what you have).

Unfortunately this is much much easier when you are wealthy.

You can toggle it on but it doesn't actually work.
I'd say it comes down to two big issues: the first one being the tooling just isn't there, and people don't want to do this stuff in code. The second—and I'd say probably bigger—issue is that video streaming has solved the problem in most cases instead.

Flash animation had its heyday when it was the only way to deliver video and games on the web realistically. With video streaming being so easy and having the added benefit of platforms with lots of eyes already, animation is a hard sell.

As you say, responsiveness is a huge advantage for animation, but unfortunately I don't think that is enough to get people on-board.

Fair point. Anonymous reviews do seem important from what you're saying. Maybe a combination - anonymous commentary published alongside the papers themselves would be the best of both worlds. As a reader, I know that I would be extremely interested in expert commentary on the journal articles I read.
I'm wondering these things too. You say in the paper that your net is quite small - I wonder if you could first extend it to regenerative sprite animations for some fun procedural NPCs in a roguelike? If you can efficiently add or change a pixel or two per frame in a sprite+collision mask, imagine battle sequences where things get hacked off, maybe regrow if you wait too long, etc.

I think giving money works for some and it's a waste for others. There are countless of poor people who would do better if they had the chance to break the cycle and there are the poors who wouldn't be able to plan the monthly expenses and they'd be hungry at the end of the month no matter how much money you throw at them. The second category needs a different type of help (maybe along with financial). The first category are simply in a never-ending spiral and sometimes it is not even their fault. Tell me how a single mom can afford to raise a child with a minimum wage salary or how a nuclear family can afford the same when one of the bread earners falls prey to a disability and so on.
I wrote SVG-SMIL export for Animatron (www.animatron.com) in 2015 that aimed to get near the level of Adobe Flash in plain browser, however it was extremely difficult due to broken SVG-SMIL implementations in all major browsers. You can see some examples here:

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/14DKPte-1YvU5IV3Rb8zd...

The issue back then was that Google suddenly announced their intent to deprecate and remove SVG-SMIL from Chrome, instantly freezing all development there. However YouTube complained and made them change their minds; later they put it into a "frozen" mode but didn't remove it.

For most artists it would have been a risky bet to use it if Google didn't want to support it any further, despite the promise of having an official standard for animation in all browsers.
Guess again, actually this is the first time I had reason to register despite reading for a long time.
There’s so many flavors of open source. It’s not just about the licenses, but also the way development is done. Do you truly collaborate in open or do you first develop and then push to public repo. Or is the development a joint effort, involving serious contributors from multiple companies or mainly driven by single entity.
I'm sure there's quite some "Brexit is bad" piling on, which is silly since this is a small company. I did find it interesting to note that they wouldn't harmonize EU banking licences as valid in the UK or grandfather them in or something.

I haven't lived in the UK for a few years now so I was surprised since the last time I voted there I recall minimizing disruption was a goal.

Found it interesting on that note. If I were setting up an international business I'd surely do more research than just going off random press releases on HN but it's useful to get the mood of businesses.

I live on the east coast, but I have friends in Vegas, so when I visit, I avoid the Strip and touristy areas unless I want to specifically go out.

As a kid, I remember our family visiting Vegas multiple times as tourists; going back as an adult has felt very different. It was a fascinating transition to experience, not unlike when you stop flying window seats and start flying aisle seats instead.

In my teenage years, I lived in an east coast city with a boardwalk and beach, lots of hotels and condos and tourist shops. I hardly ever went to the beach -- it could get crowded, and parking and not getting your car wet and sandy would get complicated, so I often forgot that it's an option. All of that works a lot better if you're staying at the beach.

I suppose Vegas residents may feel similar about the Strip or Fremont Street during an average day, when they're trying to get stuff done. But if you're looking for ways to spend an afternoon or night out around town, there's plenty of variety, from shows to shopping, paid attractions, pedestrian spaces, museums, diverse restaurants, bars, nightclubs: much more so than metros of a comparable size: Charlotte, Sacramento, Cincinnati, Kansas City, Columbus, Cleveland. Its weakest areas arguably sports, and smaller "local" venues for bands on tour.
You're correct. Nobody believes them because so many of these so-called drawbacks have turned out to be lies.

For instance, Goldman Sachs repeatedly claimed they'd be moving their business to Frankfurt in the case of a Leave vote. They even funded the Remain campaign. Now they leased their HQ in London for 25 years: https://news.sky.com/story/goldman-sachs-commits-to-uk-despi... - apparently not planning to leave the country after all.

The EU Commission said it would ban EU companies from trading with British financial in the wake of Brexit. The IMF said it would "cripple" the UK. Brexit supporters said that cutting off the EU from all British financial services would be so self-defeating the Commission wouldn't do it. I was skeptical personally, but so far they were proven right. The Commission keeps extending the so-called "financial passport": https://www.telegraph.co.uk/business/2019/12/02/eu-threats-c...

N26 say they're leaving because of Brexit, but chose to enter after they knew Brexit had been voted for and the process was well under way. How likely is it this is true, vs N26 failing in the market but being run by a bunch of Remainers who want to deliver a "fuck you"? If they really only just realised now Brexit was happening then they are a monumentally incapable company.

By the way, the EU's unified financial regulation creates problems as well as solutions. For instance it prevented British regulators from stepping in to prevent the foreseen collapse of Icelandic banks. The Icelandic government ended up not having sufficient funds to bail them out. It's discussed here:

https://leftfootforward.org/2016/09/brexit-is-the-financial-...

The government's recommendations after that incident were basically to introduce caveats and more regional control over financial regulation.

Support for ASP.NET Identity in Cloudy CMS 1.38
Cloudy CMS now supports ASP.NET Core Identity, as in managing users through the admin UI with a custom UserStore. The example implementation is included in the website project in the repo.

Also changed is the INameable interface which now is only a getter for Name and now supports both being a normal string property (getter and setter) property AND also supports redirecting to another property.

In other words, you may have no place for a Name property in your content model, but you want the content to be described by a certain field in the UI when listing. The User class is such an example.

Then you can implement it as such:

string INameable.Name => Username;

public string Username { get; set; }

Oh, and that redirection is done through a very lightweight MSIL disassembler. (NameExpressionParser)

When the copy competes with the original. The original required investment of effort and resources, the copy is near-zero effort.

This is the case for certain original content video channels, where their content is literally copied and monetized, competing for the same viral links and diverting traffic from the original.
Nothing wrong with being extra responsible!

That's not actually certain. The UK has no fundamental reason not to recognise EU banking licenses, although it may choose not to, or to recognise it but require additional compliance.

The UK may end up being 'forced' to not recognise such licenses in retaliation if the EU refuses to recognise British licenses. This is quite likely to happen because the EU has a track record of revoking financial licensing as part of trade wars with European countries. For instance they revoked acceptance of Switzerland's financial licenses as part of trying to pressure the Swiss government to cede significant powers to Brussels.
