> "html/template" doesn't support things like inheritance

I don't want to get into a debate about what "inheritance" means, but html/template does support template composition and nested templates, which seem to address the same use case.

> These two problems have made it so I've pretty much given up web apps in Go for now. Services in Go are _amazing_. But if you're trying to get a full blown web app (again, not the point of the linked article above), then you're gonna have a bad time.

I'm sorry to hear that, especially since writing a "full-blown web app" is really not difficult in Go at all, once you know what you're doing.

I've actually been working on Jetpack[0], a sample web application in Go to demonstrate how straightforward this is, once one understands how it actually works. (Disclaimer: it's still a work in progress, so it's not complete/ready yet).

This is my first ruby app. I am basically fetching the HN front page every 5 minutes and keeping track of when stories:
(a) come to the front page
(b) leave the front page.
As of now, the apps front page only shows charts of stories that have most recently moved off the front page. There is also a route that shows the trend for a particular HN story (such as http://apps.defsym.me/hntrendz/7116764 for the Gmail is down story).
I have poor front end skills so I admit the app has a lot that can be done to make it usable and pretty.
The app is very much unfinished as of now and with my interests shifting to other projects I am hoping someone would like to fork and take it forward. Some things I had in mind:
(a) Replace chart.js with highcharts
(b) Offer additional views (like top trends etc)
(c) Summary statistics - such as when it first appeared on the HN front page, how long it stayed etc
They persecuted the rich owners of department stores - small shop keepers where a substantial target market for the NAZI party (source Kershaws bi of Hitler)
I spent almost all of my waking time, every day, on the computer. The way I avoid wasting hours on Facebook, Twitter, Youtube, HN, etc is that I don't use the first two, I don't randomly wander on the third one, and I use RSS and only stop in for the interesting things on the final one.

I don't consider time I spend at my computer "wasted". What would be a better use of it? Gardening? Edging my lawn? Detailing my car? Golfing?
Intel and AMD both have some good documentation on their site for getting going with OpenCL, so that's a good place to start. For example:

http://developer.amd.com/tools-and-sdks/heterogeneous-comput...

The Khronos website has a huge page with a list of OpenCL tutorials and books:

https://www.khronos.org/opencl/resources

Amazon has a number of OpenCL books available:

* http://www.amazon.com/OpenCL-Action-Accelerate-Graphics-Comp...

* http://www.amazon.com/Heterogeneous-Computing-OpenCL-Second-...

* http://www.amazon.com/OpenCL-Programming-Guide-Aaftab-Munshi...

This book is available on Amazon but the previous edition is available for free:

http://www.fixstars.com/en/opencl/book/

Intel's website also has some "Getting Started" articles and optimization guides for OpenCL (for CPU, GPU, and Xeon Phi):

It's rational but as a goal it's completely out of reach for most people (probably less so for the audience here).
I agree SoundCloud is better in many aspects but for trap I follow two really good channels on YouTube:

It's these kind of promotion channels I'm missing on SoundCloud, even though it has started popping up some good ones.
The wheels under the Levandovski story is Google agitprop. The protest was in fucking Berkeley. It was over condominiums proposed to be built in fucking Berkeley. And the warmongering angle was just fucking Berkeley's historical anti-warmongering manifesting itself.

The only nexus between the story and Google's buses is Google. And if any one in the world is in a better position to spin a story, it wouor constitute an improbable event.

He's treading on thin ice here. It's one thing to whistleblow the NSA illegally/unconstitutionally spying on Americans in America, but he risks losing popular support when he goes on to expose the NSA spying on foreigners overseas.

I think a majority of US citizens recognize that's the NSA's job, and are aware the same is being done to the US (esp by China), and hence are more ambivalent, if not supportive, of that role, even if it annoys our allies.

I don't know what Snowden thinks he can gain from this, especially now that Russia has extended his stay indefinitely. I would hate for the tide of public opinion to turn decisively against him for something like this. Stick to exposing only illegal intelligence activities on US soil against US citizens, imho.

" ...This goes way, way beyond a cheap bus ride - although the public transport scene in Brazil’s big cities would star in Dante’s ninth circle of hell. A manual worker, a student, a maid usually spend up to four hours a day back-and-forth in appalling conditions. And these are private transport rackets controlled by a small group of businessmen embedded with local politicians, who they obviously own."

All I have is an anecdote.

I'm a former Cisco Systems employee. Since they started laying people off, from what I understand, this complicates green card application issues, so employees there, while not at risk of getting laid off, have their residency status put into jeopardy.

So, they need to go somewhere they can get the clock started again.

Also, there's a sentiment that places like the big tech giants have had their day and there's no bright future days ahead.
I have to wonder if there'd be so much fuss about any permissive-license project where Apple _wasn't_ a major contributor. I mean, you rarely see this level of concern that the existence of the Apache web server or Python or whatever will pollute the FSF's precious bodily fluids.

It might be just that GCC is such a flagship project for them, but, really, the level of concern seems unwarranted. You'd think LLVM was the first software ever to use a permissive license or something...
Yeah, it's essentially the same for me: if I really need/want something from the net, I can just put my shoes on and pop into some café.

One thing I've noticed is that I'm really looking forward to springtime, so I can be outdoors more. I love weekend days when you're just ambling around all day, but it's not so pleasant when it's cold and wet...

Nowadays the language of 'social justice' (e.g. asking the rich to pay their share, when in a progressive tax regime they pay far more than that) is used to justify leveling behavior whereas in Nazi Germany the language of 'racial purity` was used towards the same ends. The verbal justifications change, but the underlying urge to evade one's own accountability for one's relative lack of success does not.

There are contexts (say, the comments section of a story on foreclosure) where "I don't buy a house I can't afford" would be a full-on raging asshole thing to say. But you went further than that:

"I also don't understand how people chose to have a full-time job...AND kids"

You clearly implied that holding any full time job and having kids was irresponsible. Because "I don't understand how [something about mores]" is a construction that American English speakers use to point out things they consider irrational, dumb or otherwise undesirable. You even anticipated that your comment would make people mad ("before you reach for the downvote button", "not judging anyone"). Because you went a good sight further than "I don't buy a house I can't afford." I think my initial judgment of "naive and/or jerkish" stands.
I appreciated the development narrative rather than a post-project summary. Thanks!
While the above is the case, I'd just like to note that it misses the thrust of the subthread - my point was that it can demonstrably be affordable for other than "large corporations", which is the case regardless of the license under which I am releasing it.
The point I was getting at is, was this because they were Jewish (or some other 'undesirable') or because they were rich/successful? Because it seems (at least some) Aryan heads of business/industry were in fact helped greatly by the Nazis.[0]

Was the persecution because the Nazi's were 'socialists' or because they wanted to steal from what they considered lesser humans? The intention is what I wonder about.

I work at Facebook on the mobile app ads team.

Like a lot of other commenters here, I think the OP didn't run an mobile app install ad which is meant exactly for this scenario - which would show up only on mobile inside newsfeed.

OP - would love to help out and dig in further. Can you email me (I'm sriramk@fb.com)?
A site at http://bitkick.org/ has been working in a similar space. Also offering no fees for open source projects.
The example of spying on Petrobras shortly before a major oilfield auction is already known. Is there a credible national security reason for that?
It sounds like you're implying that enforcing 'racial purity' through genocide is somehow analogous to having rich people (no strike that, unbelievably rich people) pay more taxes?

That train of thought seems... frightening? (I really hope you didn't make that comment seriously.)

Edit: And as pointed out in the article, many pay less than their share in the current tax regime. Many high-income earners pay a lower effective tax rate than low-income earners
Actually social justice nowadays very rarely addresses economic disparities, but rather focuses on identity politics.

Unless you're referring to an alternate definition of SJ.
How do you guys detect people hitting your site too often/scraping content?

Thanks for clarifying. I understand people in his core regions and pro Russia Russians supporting him. I cannot understand the fairly progressive and very intelligent community here on HN supporting this wanna-be dictator.
This has nothing to do with Nazi's riches, just like it has nothing to do with today's jews. The parallel he draws is simple:

- Nazi's attacked a minority, the jews

- Current society attacks a minority, the riches

- Therefore, current society is literally le hitler.

Whether that theory is valid or not is another topic (I believe his point was to raise attention, not truth)
A number of companies have been sued for using GPL software in ways incompatible with the GPL, so I don't see how the distinction you're drawing here is meaningful.
While the NSA itself and higher ups may not be actively involved in espionage, seeing how the agency didn't/doesn't know what its agents are doing/do... it's very plausible that agents within the organization are spying on companies and selling that information.
I think that the majority of US Citizens are against industrial espionage and think that spending government money and resources to spy on foreign companies to benefit select US companies is wrong.
Because they can live in SF and work in SF without needing to end-run around public transportation.

And to that I'll respond by asking how many Amazons there are? If it isn't monopoly it's pretty close.

How about Google? Is there any real competition to ad words? Or google search? Does anybody use Bing without being forced? Duck Duck Go is nice, but it has worse results and will have worse results forever.

How about companies making desktop CPUs? Oligopoly isn't monopoly per se, but it's so close it doesn't matter. Nobody enforced that, it arised by itself.

Guess what - making processors in ever smaller process has huge upfront costs and small costs per unit. But that's just economic myth, right?
Microsoft, at least, was thinking about this and trying to mitigate as early as 2003 [1],

This is as likely a magical object as a gaming die.

Glass would have been expensive for a mere gambling device, whereas bone dice were cheap.

It's a Platonic solid found in Egypt, the epicenter of Neoplatonism.

Please take a minute to think about what the 'S' in NSA stands for, and how industrial espionage relates to that.
To extend to this, when I was in college, my grades suffered because of my unnecessary internet usage (reddit, hn, facebook, all that stuff). So after failing to keep up my promise, I decided to actually leave my laptop at home which is 4+ hours away. I didn't have a computer nor smartphone at the time, so all I had left in the house was material necessary for studying. Needless to say, I jumped from being about 80th percentile to 2nd percentile in the class and this allowed me to gain more theoretical knowledge than my I did in my 19 previous years.

Sad thing is, now that I'm working, I have internet and computer back at home, and I waste a lot of time on it...
The html/template package seems to address the use case, but it comes up short in several ways. One example is defining a site template with sections that are optionally specified in a page specific template.
I don't like comperative statements when talking about exceptional work. Can you say the Beatles are more popular/influential than Queen? How can you even decide something like that? The words themselves (exceptional,influential) do not have comparative/superlative forms.

Agreed on Mao and Marx.

I'd argue that HGW, Verne and Asimov created or helped significantly in shaping a literary genre which has a high impact on our psychological and cultural behavior and currently paves the way to our future. Whether their ideas last only a 100 years is irrelevant. Is Baroque, or better yet - Rococo - irrelevant?

There will be a handful of books that make a big, permament paradigm shift in society as a whole (or in big parts of it). But in order for the authors who will write those books to be born, society has to constantly move and spawn new trends.
Agreed. I'm not commenting on the author per se. I'm more commenting on the comments he addresses, some of which seem to imply that the Nazi's were anti-rich/anti-business.

Up-voting as your comment very much helps clarify what I'm curious about.
At rent increases like the city is seeing, I don't see how the primary customers of those establishments can remain in the city.
One of the arguments of this article is that as technology stabilizes we will be able to demand higher pay.

Technology will likely not stabilize.
Agreed. The first-hand accounts of people who are there, writing/streaming what they're witnessing as they witness it, with little time taken for editorializing and narrative-making, is some of the most honest source material possible.
I recently started using rescuetime. Now atleast have an accurate idea of how much time I am wasting each day.

France is notorious for aggressive industrial espionage. Businessmen visiting France routinely have their hotel rooms searched while out, their papers (and now computers) copied, and all of it turned over to French corporations.
1 I dislike very much the fact of being dragged into a discussion of this kind. Problems of Russian Mail are universally known.

2 Circa 2004 two my parcels arrived to different post offices late and cut open. There was no valuables inside (I wasn't that naive.) Ever since I used express services (DHL, TNT, PE)

3 I heard similar stories from other people (late&open)

4 Recently I received two packages by Russian Mail. They arrived late (1 month travel time) but were not open. An improvement.

5 Still I (we) use tracking to pick a parcel as local offices don't notify receivers. They let a package bounce silently. Forewarned is forearmed.

6 Lady at the post office was very kind.

7 Before receiving my parcels I was studying a vk.com official community for computeruniverse.ru clients, which is full of horror stories and detailed official 20-step instructions on how not to get screwed.

8 The same applies to letters, unfortunately. A local letter may travel for a month (even town hall officials complain about that).

9 A letter I sent from San Francisco arrived to Yekaterinburg in about three months. Just before I arrived myself.

10 YMMV. Russia is a great country. Cheers.
Above a commenter says "How is asking for 'the rich to pay their share' a corollary to any Nazi actions?" How is this not using a social justice argument to address economic disparities? Do you really claim that such statements are rare?
Can I use conky to monitor a remote server? I'd like that.
>And it's certainly reasonable to analogize contemporary attempts to level the 1% with the corollary attempts in Germany in the 1930s.

It's not reasonable; it's quite perverse -- you seem to be confusing the Nazis with the opposing parties of the time. The opposing parties were for the elimination of class differences while the Nazis where explicitly for preserving them.

From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nazism :

This involved the idea of uniting rich and poor Germans for a common national project without eliminating class differences (a concept known as "Volksgemeinschaft", or "people's community"),

Essentially, the Nazis suppressed class based anger and encouraged homicidal racism and xenophobia. The Nazis were the defenders, not the oppressors, of the wealthy.
Dashing is gorgeous and surprisingly easy to write widgets for.. Hardest part was getting the layouts right.
This just seems silly. The Facebook ad pointed at the game webpage while the AdMob ad pointed to the appstore.

Obviously ads that point to the appstore are going to convert at a higher rate.
There goes any trade secrets.
Yes people automatically assume that reading a book is automatically better than spending time on the internet.
That's a good observation. Seymour-Smith was (I seem to recall) a fan, and he certainly would have been around lots of people who were into that work. On the other hand, from Seymour-Smith's perspective, which was literary- and 20th century-centric, Gurdjieff may well belong on the list. He really did have a surprising influence on literary and artistic circles. His movement was fascinating and I don't think it has been properly studied or understood; all the good writing about it is by followers. But yes, surely nowhere near Marx or Mao.
About your first point - I don't know.

I have something to say about your second point, though. Protesters are dumb ruining the city by burning the tires, regardless of the political situation. I am not living in Kiev, I planned a visit to it soon, I don't anymore. I don't know what to do. I am just saying that burning tires and cars is bad and stupid. Protesters have earned disdain at least from me by doing that.
It is phenomenal how many of those books are on the scrap heap of history.
I found fantastic proofreaders on Odesk, very affordable.

You can't go cheaper than Fiverr though, some gigs offering 2500 words proofreading for $5.
Fair enough on the symbols being astrological, but we do know the Romans used gaming dice. One of my favorite exhibits at a museum I visited in Bath was a pair of wooden dice from a Roman camp. There were two very cool things about them: they used the same dot pattern that we use today, and, as the plaque informed us, they were loaded, rolling 6 significantly more often than the other numbers.
I'm sure the cost of getting the thing there overshadows the cost of construction, but it seems really fabulously overbuilt. I'm sure the martian environment is horrible for plastics, but heck, they only need to last 90 days. Let them get brittle and rot. (I'm assuming plastic is lighter and therefore cheaper to transport)

I guess it's the difference between doing everything as well as possible and then dealing with the limiting factor, vs doing just enough to meet the 90 day goal. A classic quality vs value trade off.
"[...] our shirts are fully machine and hand washable. They will retain their properties up to 80 wash cycles."

My question is the opposite. Why would I wash it if it's self-cleaning? Smelling comes from sweat bacteria; if sweat doesn't stick to the material then it should never get smelly. Obviously I misunderstand key aspects of this whole thing.
The thing that amazes me about Jobs is how he could present in such a way that it seemed so off-the-cuff and at the same time so polished. Anyone who has had to do presentations like these can learn a lot from watching him at work.

In the NeXT video, for example, he's very good at tying everything together into a cohesive whole, and speaking to his audience in terms they'll understand. He uses practically no filler words ("uh", "um", "basically", etc.).

Here's another presentation he did in 1980 that shows he had these skills almost from the very beginning:

Sounds like OP has already tried that approach and it's not working.
Why do you think the majority of US citizens are "against industrial espionage"? That's a surprising claim. Can you marshal evidence to support it?
I think you overestimate the power of Putin.

I think that keeping the protest going is stupid thing in itself. Many think the same and this is what is going on.
Overall, technology hasn't really "stabilized" since the loom, either.

It has, however, stabilized locally for periods of time in one area of industry or another.

And it is likely to do similar things again.
