To what the author has said, I will add that in terms of performance, Netty is currently faster than the fastest production Servlet containers [1]. Presently, Undertow (the web server for the upcoming WildFly application server, which will have a Servlet container) is the only platform providing slightly faster request-processing performance. Until WildFly is production-ready, Resin is the highest-performance Servlet container I am aware of.

I've used Firefox all my life because of Firebug. Then after a while it just got so slow that it was unusable and the experience became terrible. And then I switched to Chrome. I'm not fond of their developer tools as much. Not as good as Firebug. I guess I'll give FF another shot.

No at all clear to me. You think https://github.com/Netflix/exhibitor/blob/master/gradle/rele... is clear? What about https://github.com/Netflix/exhibitor/blob/master/gradle/lice...? What is "ext.year"? I don't want to learn and understand an entirely new language for my build.

I am not able to maintain these build scripts. This is the problem with DSLs in general. Maven isn't great, but its strength is standardization. I can look at any Maven pom and know what it does and make changes to it.

Interesting, I went to a super computer conference in Germany last week and was curious to see many papers using 10GbE and vendors talking about infiniband. Can you point me to any resources? Also have you any insight as to what the current thinking is about Hadoop clusters - are people making the move to 40GbE to try and get good throughput or is it pointless. Our tiny 8 node cluster has recently got in a fluster due to having a 1GbE switch, an obvious fix is to get a 10GbE one - but will this help?

It still seems impossible to correct for everything. Sure, you could correct for age as you describe, but I imagine that landline phone ownership correlates with political opinions in all sorts of other ways too.

Furthermore, how do you gather the data needed to correct the polling numbers without being able to accurately poll people in the first place? Seems like a complete chicken-and-egg problem.
I'm not certain the $68 valuation is right, the opposite in fact. That's why I was looking for a compelling argument for a $200-300 valuation for which I have found no defensible justification from you or anyone else.

Again, valuation is not the same as price and we are not talking about price. Tesla's stock price is not being driven primarily by fundamental value. From the same author:
" Once you accept the pricing proposition that the market price is what it is, the key to winning at the pricing game becomes forecasting changes in price rather than assessing whether the current price is right. As a consequence, your focus on news stories will become incremental and each news story will be assessed in terms of how it will change the price, rather than how it will affect overall value."

I don't trade individual securities, I wouldn't trade a "hot" stock based on valuation since the price is then driven by other factors and I certainly would be reluctant to short any stock because shorting is a complicated trade: Shorting is a short term play, you need to know when to short or else you will be crushed by fees. You can also be bitten by things like squeezes and acquisitions and the fact that shorting without protection is unlimited liability. Shorting is far more dangerous than going long and even sophisticated professional money managers get burned, even when the stock is actually overpriced. QE-infinity makes shorting even more perilous.

What is annoying is that you pretend you did a valuation before investing in Tesla and traded based on the valuation. Now you rationalize the trade to yourself by interpreting information in a way that suits the outcome, post hoc ergo proper hoc.

You might make money but it won't be because of any justifiable insight you had.

Closed proceedings are the exception in the American system. Generally, there are two justifications, deriving from constitutional missions: security, and the inherently counter-democratic function of the judiciary. Even then, oral arguments in front of the Supreme Court are public and recorded.

It's completely different when Putin does it. Right?
The article is of the usual "evil Ruskies" overtone. I won't get into the hypocrisy and exaggeration of it, but will say that the threat of a terrorist attack during the Olympics is very real.

For one, look at the map [1]. It's in the immediate proximity of two known battle grounds - Chechnya and Georgia. The terrain is mountainous with a lot of hideouts. It's been routinely used as a pass for insurgents. And there have been numerous claims from various terrorist groups to shed blood in Sochi during the games.

Given the background of the area, I'm not surprised of the heightened security measures. Which are still, in contrast with the US surveillance capabilities are fairly mild.

I hate to phrase it this way, but the moral high ground would seem to be a relative place. The revelation that everyone spies doesn't necessarily mean that everyone spies in the same way or for the same reason. The motivation in particular seems important when talking about the moral high ground. While I'm sure there is overlap between spying motivations of China, Russia and western democracies (most large countries have similar interests in what other large countries are doing), there are also reasons China and Russia spy that are not shared by the US or the EU. There is little to suggest that the US or EU are using spying to suppress political dissent, for example. And the differences in the laws governing spying in the US and Russia seem unlikely to be "subtle" ones, the claim made in the article aside.
I don't think it's interesting that Go has this combination of attributes. I think it's interesting that the "right" boring systems programming language got a degree of tooling and traction sufficient to make it, unlike Modula and Oberon, a viable mainstream choice.

I am fine with boring languages. The first language love of my life is C. It's hard to get more boring than C. If a system I build is going to be clever or sophisticated, I'm fine with that being expressed in my code, rather than as the product of the environment I happen to be working in.

How does one even respond to a comment like this? Do we say, "of course we can still point a finger" and accept the premise that the Russians are "evil communists"? Or do shrug and accept the premise that the US and the Russian government, which runs a sideline business in murdering inconveniently critical journalists, are somehow morally equivalent?

Funny, the reason I don't switch back is the opposite of yours: I don't want to miss Vimium... how does Vimperator compare to Vimium?
That seems highly relevant omission to label, then
It's interesting that you object more to the term "betrayal" than for instance "illegal activities".

I was referring to the multiple occasions when Google stated "we stand with you on X" and then did a 180 (for instance on net neutrality), if you can think of a more appropriate and less "shrill" term than betrayal, please enlighten me. English is not my first language.

Anyway, is it really so surprising that I loathe a corporation that is engaged in the systematic international violation of civil rights, but thanks to great PR is still worshiped as force for good?

As for my comment history, yeah, perhaps I should be a little less trigger happy when it comes to Google.
Making your own Photographic Paper & Prints
I wouldn't presume to suggest a solution to the larger problem of getting people signed up for plans.

But the problem right now is, people are very curious about what plans are available. It's public information that doesn't require personal data. The whole point of the exchanges is to give the public clear data on the available plans. Distributing public information is a problem that has been quite thoroughly solved.

The technical people didn't seem to realize that they had two problems to solve, not one. And my frustration right now is that part of Congress is trying very hard to defund the whole program before people are able to gain access to that information, and it should be too late for that.

If someone has screwed up the regulations so badly that this information intended for the public is not actually public, then of course that's where the problem is, but that seems unlikely to me. It would make for a very interesting news story, if true.
I too used Chrome because it was simple enough to seem to get out of the way, but Firefox has gotten so much faster that I can't remember how there was an advantage.

Now, I can't stand that there is never a sidebar in Chrome for things like Todoist, and you have that annoying pop-down menu instead. Firefox even lets you use extensions that radically alter the interface, such as the really convenient Tile Tabs[1], without any noticeable slowdowns.

I used to switch back and forth, using Firefox if I was using a extension for some specific task, then back to Chrome for everything else, but now Firefox just never seems to slow down much, so there's no reason.

Actually, not really. Germany was awarded the '36 Games in 1931 which is before the Nazis came to power.
And even in '36 it wouldn't have been so obvious exactly how bad the Nazis were going to turn out to be. Much easier to say in hindsight.
Data is eating the software world
That's just common (engineering) sense.

In his beginner lesson on programming a Poker game with Python, Peter Norvig ask the student to write a test for a 10000 cards deal.

That's the same. "It just work" is the user's resulting feeling for a product that is working well under any conditions, known and unkown, aka a well-engineered product. (Which often means getting over the project manager's head)

This means to have few to no implicit assumptions in the code. Vim is a great example: developped when a 10kb file was a huge file, it will kindly open and edit a 2Gb log file for you (if you don't have all these silly 3rd party plugins). Vim may be burping a bit on very very long lines, but it still shows that the running code behind is not assuming on your behalf that you are editing a couple of haikus.

Of course, you pay for quality. Things in China are cheaper, but they are also "cheaper". Caveat Emptor most certainly applies.
Of course I used a little hyperbole. Still, property is not innate – it is a social construct. When agriculture started, society decided to allow people to own property. People need society, they don't need property (as they've lived without it for over a million years). Society therefore can define the limits of private possession.

Obviously, we need to take into account that now, unlike 10,000 years ago, people no longer have the option of leaving society completely, so they have little choice in the matter, and in order to restore some of that freedom, private property needs to be protected by law. But again, property is not a natural right; it's a social convention. That should be the premise.

You'll be surprised how many educated Europeans think, what with Gitmo and the war in Iraq and so on, that the US and Russia are morally equivalent.

I expect the same is true in much of the rest of the world too. But as a European, I can say the sentiment is widespread here.

"1957 - John Backus and IBM create FORTRAN. There's nothing funny about IBM or FORTRAN. It is a syntax error to write FORTRAN while not wearing a blue tie."

But robots that decide that a rocket should be built or a toiled should be cleaned are.

Why on Earth do they need to tap athletes? Mr. Putin heard about NSA and thought Russia needs some surveillance as well to look cool?
I think that as with the latest NSA stuff, it's the ubiquitous and wholesale nature of it that really changes the game.

Before, everyone knew that spying was happening here and there, but as an ordinary, politically uninteresting person, you could (perhaps naively) pretty much assume it wouldn't affect you.

But we are rapidly reaching a stage where intense surveillance is close to guaranteed on everyone, and the potential for abuse is much greater. "Ordinary" people going to Russia to watch to the Olympics won't just have to worry about being targeted for political reasons, they'll have to worry about their business communications, financial information, having details of their sexual life leaked and then being confronted by a brutal mob, reaching a position of power and being blackmailed in the future, etc.

In the past, Western countries could have protested in some way about behavior such as this and perhaps used their leverage to make changes, but now it appears that this tyrannical approach to human rights is becoming standardized.
