I think the source comes close to contradicting that without being explicit:

'GIMP 2.10’s core will be 100% ported to GEGL, and all of the legacy pixel fiddling API for plug-ins is going to be deprecated. Once the core is completely ported, it will be a minor effort to simply “switch on” high bit depths and whatever color models we’d like to see. Oh, and already now, instead of removing indexed mode (as originally planned), we accidentally promoted indexed images to first class citizens that can be painted on, and even color corrected, just like any other image. The code doing so doesn’t even notice because GEGL and Babl transparently handle the pixel conversion magic.'
Well, that's embarrassing, you're right. I confused the historical existence of the principle of relativity and how general relativity generalizes special relativity and took them further than they actually go.
Something has never been right about rss and I can't put my finger on exactly what.

I always found the idea compelling. I've tried using readers. Taken time to put in my feeds, but it never really became part of my routine. When I've been away loggin in feels like a chore. Frequently updated feeds drowned out the others. There hvae never been conventions that work around it either. What happens when an entry is updated, for example. What happens when you click the rss icon. etc etc.

I really wanted rss (and I still use it) but it was never right.

Twitter’s New Recruitment Tool: the Innovator’s Patent Agreement
Can someone explain the 'same name key:value shortcut' feature?
I think the real problem with RSS uptake is there's a lack of the 2-way discoverability that goes on with twitter. When you follow someone on twitter (or facebook) the feed originator knows who is following them and can follow back. Also the ease of @username messaging isn't there with RSS.
I had several friends with whom I shared a dozen or so links each day in Google Reader. When Google dropped the sharing feature in Reader, I basically stopped sharing with them and haven't found a replacement. Google+ definitely was not a viable alternative. It was my mistake in relying on Google, in retrospect.

The social sharing was very valuable for content junkies, b/c the only people who shared stuff on reader were other folks who were heavy users of RSS. Comparing signal to noise from that community vs. my twitter feed is a total joke. When Google shut it down, people in my RSS sharing circle were really upset. It was sad.
And yet, no results from their massive computation. Schrodinger is well known for being a company of liars and frauds, and unfriendly to open source and other ideals of our community.
Social protocols are replacing RSS. In my view, Twitter and Facebook are better versions of RSS. First, they reach many more people. It’s easier to “follow” something than to subscribe to an RSS feed (has a bit of a medical ring to it, no?).

Second, these social streams provide an additional social filter to the news, something that RSS news never did. These social filters also provide a layer to comment, share and discuss, which is another feature altogether missing in RSS.

Lastly, social streams avoid the challenge most RSS readers faced: the inbox with 1000+ items to read and no way to sift through them. Social streams create a time value decay function for this data. Facebook’s EdgeRank uses a combination of different signals to ensure relevancy so when users login the feed is only timely, relevant content, not an inbox of every status update and share. Twitter uses time to reduce the number of items in the feed.

Does anyone think SpaceX would be possible without decades of taxpayer funded research?

Yes.

Would SpaceX be happening now if there had never been a Space Shuttle? Quite simply we have no way of knowing and we never will, because we can't roll back history, change variables and make new experiments. But there's no particular reason whatsoever to think that the technology required by SpaceX would not (have been|be) developed just because it wasn't funded by taxpayers. If you're going to play with alternative scenarios, it's equally possible that privatizing space travel research decades ago would have led to more progress, not less.

But, for better or worse, we have what we have here today. I don't think any Libertarians are playing "triumphalism" here, so much as just pointing out that now is clearly a good time to start transitioning certain elements of space travel to the private sector. It's fun to argue about what might or might not have happened under other scenarios, but it's not a very productive discussion.

I use RSS readers almost exclusively to consume content and would miss RSS if nothing else replaced it. I'm an information junkie and RSS readers have made it far easier for me to keep up with the torrent of information out there. That said, I can't escape the feeling that the concept of websites having feeds in a standard format is starting to wane. I also think google reader has sucked a lot of oxygen out of the RSS space. Every mobile or desktop reader pretty much has to sync with google reader which influences their design accordingly. While there are lots of attempts to make things look pretty, there's not a whole lot of major innovation in the RSS reader space. That's not to mention the fact that as far as I know, the reader API is unofficial so it could go bye, bye any time.

All that being said, RSS alone is not exactly the pinnacle of information delivery. What I really want is a better way to identify interesting and informative information and filter out all the junk. This is a very, very hard problem to solve in an automated way. Things like Flipboard are trying to tackle this, but I haven't been able to embrace them. I also don't want to rely on my social network, because I'm different from my network. I have my own interests and priorities (that change over time).

What I want is a feed of information that is what google is to search. Google nearly always shows me exactly what I'm looking for in the top hits. I want something that gives me the most important, useful, and interesting information in a prioritized list all the time. The only thing I've seen get close to this is Fever (http://feedafever.com/). That's a good start, but isn't quite there.

All great ideas. I've always thought that the boldest and most innovative education experiments will end up being run in the developing world (Africa, Asia, South America). The developed world has centralized institutions that provide a decent education at astronomical costs to its citizens. But these centralized institutions have special interests and look to slow down the innovation to a manageable pace for them, instead of serving the best educational experience for the students. As Larry Lessig's refrain states, <i>"The past always tries to control the creativity that builds upon it."</i>

The high demand for education due to complete institutional failures in the developing world and the reduced cost of learning and coordination that the Internet provides will make students there extremely receptive to new ways of learning as soon as it becomes affordable. Sufficient penetration of the mobile phone and the tablet computer in these populations will be the vehicle for this change. I wonder if this penetration could put some of these developing countries in a position to leapfrog old ways of learning and ramp up both enthusiasm around learning and skill acquisition.

"the second example has a clear execution order. This one doesn't - it can all happen at once, from the program's perspective"

I'm not sure what you're getting at here. With Python list comprehension semantics, those are both the same, including execution order. I don't see any ambiguity or need for "assumptions about the order of results". Am I missing something?

Optimization of Python list comprehensions to run on a GPU would take some serious mojo to ensure independence of each clause. Not an impossible amount, but certainly not trivial, especially as you move beyond calling 'sin'.
It's a DRY thing. Often in JS, object literals assign their keys to values of the same name -- you'll see a lot of this:

$.ajax(url, {
data: data,
contentType: contentType,
success: success,
error: error
});

... not so nice. So as a first stab, you can clean it up like so:

$.ajax url, {data, contentType, success, error}

... but it's especially nice in the context of destructuring assignment, like for your Node.js imports, for example.

They will blame both initially. Pissed off people are pissed off, and distribute blame randomly. That is the short term pain. However if it broke AND Microsoft stated up front that it really was Adobe's fault, Microsoft would have taken less of the blame. Not none, but less.

The flip side if Microsoft had bitten that painful bullet up front, then I believe that going forward companies like Adobe would have learned to not try to hack the system like they had. That would have given everyone, including Microsoft, a better reputation.

But of course Microsoft did not do that. And now Microsoft has such a history of nasty bugs that, even if Microsoft is in the right, nobody is going to believe it. (Which of course locks Microsoft into its current strategy of bending over backwards to accommodate everyone else's bugs, causing more bugs...)
Two things struck me about that article, the pharmaceutical guy who felt like with enough cores they could find the cure to cancer, and Cycle's challenge of moving past 50,000 cores.

What struck me is that I wonder why Google (or Amazon) hasn't put out the cure for cancer. The actual extent of Google's infrastructure is classified, but using open sources its clear that putting together even half a million 'cores' is not a huge project for them. (Think of it this way, they spent a billion dollars building a data center that the actual building/land/etc estimates out at about 200M.)
I guess you're right. Maybe the effect is reverse even - by raising attention to potentional pitfalls.

Still, I can not think of a possible use case this can be useful. Maybe other options will make it worth knowing about.
I like Skillshare's approach in this regard of being the basic class unit through which teachers can weave curriculums.

Civil liberties are under attack on so many fronts, it seems like the few who cared initially are punch drunk. This is such a painfully bad idea on so many levels. Here's a list:

1. This adds cost without adding value to the consumer of the product.

2. The only value add is the ability of a democratic government run by the people...to track its people.

3. We already carry cell phones and use facebook. Do you really to build a whole new physical platform to get this done? Can you do it better than the cell phone providers and facebook?

4. We're not deep enough in debt yet? Want me to skip to the end game and just cut out my liver and hand it to you?

Do you live in the United States? I ask this seriously, not sarcastically.

The games are qualitatively different. Israel has publicly-funded elections and a proportional-representation Parliament (the Knesset). Every nation's political processes involve some level of compromising, politicking, and unwanted deal-making to get one's way on important issues. "Politics is the art of the possible", fact of life.

The United States, on the other hand, does not even really operate on the basis of votes. It operates mostly on the basis of dollars: the highest spender(s) get(s) their way on the issues, with that ruling principle expressing itself in various forms through actual elections, votes, court cases, etc.

Israel, as we have always thought democratic nations should, has politics as its own profession, separate from others. America does not; becoming a politician of any stature means acquiring or marshaling financial power.

Creativity and innovation have been happening for much of human history. Perceived unfairness that the progress of technology doesn't delineate individual's contributions isn't really something that has held back society.

On the other hand, the patent litigation game is negative sum (it destroys wealth) and mostly enriches lawyers: https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=1930272 http://techcrunch.com/2011/08/19/terrible-cost-patents/

In addition to the litigation costs, the prohibition to build incrementally or to reuse or rediscover ideas makes R&D more expensive for lesser results.

So making ideas exclusive has not rewarded R&D and has made society poorer overall, despite rhetoric about incentives, propriety, and fairness.
> What more could browser makers have done to encourage RSS? Technophiles love it, but the mass market rejected it.

I mostly agree, but...

Browsers prominently featured RSS for many years, and the world at large ignored it. Heck, I'm one of those technophiles and I ignored it in the browser. Why? Because RSS should have been about convenience, but the browser implementations did not seem intuitive, and more importantly did not make it clear how it actually worked. All the techies I know who regularly consume content through RSS use a separate reader, and I suggest that's because browser RSS did not actually offer anything compelling (or even useful at all). I could be totally wrong about how useful browser RSS was, but then the problem is that even a moderately competent techie didn't see it and the buck still stops at the browser.
