That doesn't answer the question, namely, "will loosening the definition for 301 make things worse than not changing it?". In this thread I've not seen a solid argument that it won't make things worse, only long redirections (ha!) from the point. Are you saying that 301 is so widely, badly implemented as to be a lost cause, as the author concedes 302 is?

Scott is well aware of all those issues. Something is, however, generally better than nothing. This is not a randomised clinical trial, not even close. It's not even a longitudinal correlational study. It's an opt in survey with a small sample. Unless you get huge effect sizes you're going to be have low certainty of anything and all it's really useful for is suggesting things for people to try or treatments to be prioritised for testing in higher powered studies.

I especially invite comments from participants here who have a professional understanding of statistical studies in clinical trials of new medicines.

Scott has an M.D. and is currently doing his residency in psychiatry.
Yes, but the white bars give you an (imaginary) non-box boundary that doesn't cost any vertical space, and lets the 3-D effect appear in the middle of the frame, instead off sides/top/bottom

There's a nice explanation by bunderbunder in a previous discussion too:

> Interestingly, if you go back and look through the Wikipedia page's history, you can see what appears to be exactly that process happening.

> Before the Wired article, the Wiki article implies that the site was an operating Magic card exchange, but the citation is a link to the Internet Archive's copy of the stub page, with absolutely nothing there to substantiate the idea that it was actually an online exchange. The Wired article appeared later and is unsourced, but could plausibly have taken the Wiki article's unsupported statement at face value. Then just the other day (February 9) the Wiki page was edited by a user named Agyle to use the Wired article instead of the Wayback Machine reference.

What if you left your phone or laptop in the taxi? You could say that at least for the laptop, your wallet should be encrypted with a password... but you're depending on everyday people picking good passwords then, which we all know they don't do.
The solution, of course, is to pair with the designers, and say they can't leave until the edits are done for all supported interfaces.

Every time. Every page.

Their designs will become more practical quickly, or the library needed to support their vision will organically grow. But they need to be in the room with real consequences for their PSDs.
Yes, right. Not currency, identity. The bitcoin approach is used to uniquely identify specific transactions for a node's traffic.

Not entirely sure, cause I have never counted. One of the things I like about eating this way is that I just eat until I feel like I am full. But the only foods I eat are: lentils, broccoli, cauliflower, fish or steak, and then some other random vegetables and good whey protein. Late in the week I might eat some nuts and seeds, and then I might eat a sweet potato the day after I work out. It is recommended to work out in the afternoons if you eat like this, but I like to lift heavy in the mornings and then just drink water til my big meal. Then whey protein after my meal. But everything I do is pretty much by personal preference rather than this guy said to do it like this. I eat candy by the bulk on the weekends too, peach rings and anything mint. thats pretty much my entire diet and for always being a chubby kid, I can confidently say I have grown to be muscular using these methods!
A thousand thanks to you good sir!

> A web-designer who doesn't understand code is like a fashion designer who can't sew.

Except there are successful fashion designers who rarely if at all sew, just like there are successful interactive designers who rarely if at all code.

Do I think knowing how to code typically makes a designer a better designer than others? Yes. Do I think it's always that way? Hell no.

Wow, I thought China was much larger than America(as in much much larger); Africa though I already knew was a fucking giant.

Accurate maps of the globe are enlightening.
Since we're comparing sizes... Let's do it with continents!

1 Africa

= 3.35 Australias

= 2.86 Europes

= 2.20 Antarcticas

= 1.67 South Americas

= 1.23 North Americas

= 0.69 Asia's

Now, in term's of population:

1 Africa

= 35.10 Australias

= 1.38 Europes

= 227669.04 Antarcticas

= 2.60 South Americas

= 1.89 North Americas

= 0.25 Asia's

"This is the exact same problem that just killed 3D HDTV"

I beg to differ. "3D" failed in cinemas and there's no amount of commitment already given to that ensuring maximum enjoyment; travel, ticket prices, $10 popcorn, etc. I see the lack of compelling content, or at least a good enough reason to make said content 3D.

The same is not true of VR. Entirely new experiences are possible. I agree that it's an anti social technology but I see the solitary gamer or single individual getting a lot of value from this.
Version 0.2.0 on Ubuntu.

I should have kept better notes. Going forward, I'll try and reproduce in small amounts of code and file reports.

One was pretty silly, I used "end" as a variable name. It blew up with a syntax error on a line where I was assigning to it, but didn't tell me what line or what variable name. (But it did say something about an unexpected assignment, so it knew where the problem was, it just didn't tell me.)

I've got the stacktrace issue right now with an error regarding an incorrect byte index into a unicode string. I get why that happens, just can't find what's causing it in my code.

Edit: changed to an ascii string after seeing someone mention it here, now I'm getting a BoundsError in copy! at array.jl:49, and again the stacktrace tells me nothing else besides the top-level function call.
While it's incidentally true that "you don't just casually fire up a VR experience", it glosses over the more salient fact that you don't have casual VR experiences, full stop. VR is, definitionally, an immersive, exclusionary activity that places you in a virtual world and prevents you from interacting with your surroundings. Criticizing an activity like that for not being casual enough to "fire up" is like speculating air travel won't catch on because airplane doors are too narrow.
Ask HN: My friend wants to translate interfaces. How would these be delivered?
A friend of mine has recently started doing translation work and I want to help her setup a website where she could translate interfaces for web apps, and then maybe mobile apps later on.<p>I'm only technical enough to setup a website but have very little programming experience so my question is:<p>What's the most convenient format for a translation to be delivered in?<p>Like, would she deliver them as a spreadsheet? Or a comma-separated text file, or an XML file, or something else?<p>I imagine there's many methods of handling translations between different methods of making software, but any nudges in the right direction would help. :)
I wonder if there's a usable ballpark measure for "habitable land"? E.g. you could say that large parts of Siberia are effectively uninhabitable, along with some parts of the Sahara desert and a good portion of Australia, and most/all of Antarctica. Of course habitability isn't really a binary function with a solid definition, but it'd be interesting to get some kind of rough estimate, especially when looking at land area and population in parallel.

Modularity and separation of concerns.

You can have a pure designer who doesn't understand code, but can follow the spec for interfacing with the frontend devs (give them a PSD). Just as those frontend devs might not understand how to best design a database-driven backend, but they can follow the spec for interfacing with it (REST calls through xhr). And those backend devs don't have to know about frontend application frameworks, they can follow the spec for interfacing (REST endpoints).

Again, modularity and separation of concerns.

Keep at it, I really like it and while the UI is...difficult, it makes sense to keep it simple while you focus on core behavior.

One big hitch: if you create a new empty grammar, there's no way to get back ot he old one unless you've exported first, and attempting to close at this point causes a hang (win7/64, latest JDK).

A simple link to the source material you're working with for the grammar concepts would go a long way towards fixing the documentation gap in the meantime.
I disagree. Back then, the hype was was just random people making those claims. Today, we have some of the most respected voices in the industry verifying that we've hit the magic threshold where you really feel you're in a virtual world.
Inhale my Lyrics, Exhale my Flow.
I agree that the HTTP methods, when used properly, express the action...the problem is A. not everyone actually follows that properly and B. the HTTP method isn't always immediately obvious to people working with the service (i.e. newbie devs.)

Having the verbs in the URI is not DRY (so that kind of sucks) but really it's not very damaging either...and so I believe the upside of (human readable) clarity outweighs the downside of a tiny bit of redundant expression.

In the end, unfort. because so many don't follow RFC 2616, devs are forced to read/pay attention to the documentation for a given service anyway (at least that's always been my experience)...so in a perfect world, I would agree verbs are the methods (and not needed in the URI)...but we are a ways off from a perfect world still...
Actually, I think moving a button 3px anywhere could be easily justified by a combination of Fitts' law and research on how humans perceive the button as something actionable and distinct from its surroundings.

That said, I'm a software engineer with a semi-formal training in user experience and moved from front-end design initially through Zeldman/CSS of 2003 to backend and mobile (and more formal CS concepts in university).

Design matters as much as the code you write. Sadly, driving technical change in either is tougher than it looks. And we won't even get into the misinterpretations possible when people assume something can be done pixel-perfect or was misread as pixel perfect when that wasn't the intent. Working together productively is the soft skill worth developing for both sides of the art/science divide.
"... construct machines to simulate simple mammalian brains", you fell for it man, marketing does marvels

what we are capable of doing is just building a machine with the same number of components (i.e. transistors if you want) as some simple mammalian brains (i.e. neurons), then the guys at wired or discovery channel do their part and tell that "that's an artificial brain"

That's assuming all labor is equivalent which seems ridiculous on the surface. I mean start-ups are hardly shoveling snow.

Young founders get more free publicity seems far more realistic to me.
Hmm. I can say with certainty that the great designers I've worked with have never had to make requests like this. They understand the idea that all sites should be built out of reusable components, and the visual relationships between those components should flow across the whole site. The CSS is robust and working site wide, the code is simple and beautiful and the design/UX is great, everyone is working efficiently - and everything flows from it. But any time you have to budge a button -3px, increase some front size 1px, tweak that padding there, fiddle with the line spacing on that subheading, or satisfy some other pixel pushing whimsy ... then the design has failed, the designer doesn't understand the medium.

Usually these sorts of requests come from mediocre designers who feel professionally threatened by a rapidly evolving scene and then feel the need to create a sort fake value for their role by insisting on such things. Very often such behaviour will come along with the sentiments expressed in OP's article, some sort of implied idea that they have the sole understanding of aesthetic value or what can be considered "delightful".

I actually just landed on Betalist a few days ago and I've been very happy with the results. I added about 120 emails to my "early access" list.

Knowing that the audience may not be directly within my target market I made sure to ask a simple open-ended question: "How do you feel when you spend too much money?" About half the folks who signed up answered the question, and even if none of the Betalist folks convert to paying customers in the long run, I've at least boosted my understanding of the pain I'm trying to solve.

I don't know enough about client implementations to say whether it is unsaveable, but let's say it is: why would 308 exist? That suggests the HTTP spec folks believe it's fundamentally changed meaning. With new-301, new-302/303, 307 and 308, we'd cover each of the 4 cases. Seems to strongly suggested that's necessary.

tbf, I was old enough to be aware of the hardware limitations even back then in those Virtuality™ days.

Now though, we're at one of those Singularity-like points of convergence which makes the plausability of mass usage of this kind of tech quite conceivable.

We have the resolution, the processing power, apparently the response times and positional-tracking too. None of these were practicable back in the 90s.

I, for one, am getting a wee damp at the whole idea.

Nice, Wikipedians actually believe that citogenesis creates real information.

This is difference between "citation" and "scholarship".

When a wikipedia article cites a non-primary source, if that source doesn't care its own sources, it is not a valid source for its claim, it is just hearsay.
It's precisely as meaningless as yours have been.

How about instead of throwing additional red herrings and strawmen at the debate you consider substantiating (or debunking) either your or my statements with more data.

As for my 40% and "sizeable", there's a research paper IIRC behind that stat, and if I get a chance to clear some tabs to the point I can look it up, I may just do that.

As for Microsoft: a criminal monopoly syndicate turned out to be highly profitable for those who were employed by it. That's not particularly surprising.

At a deeper level: what aspect of Microsoft's contribution to the net economy consisted of rent-seeking (effectively and by design forcing all PC computer vendors into shipping a license per CPU, destroying competing OS, office suite, and browser vendors), and how much served to unleash additional real economic activity by way of reducing the frictions in managing, processing, and utilizing information, and how would that have compared with a conceivable alternative universe: say, one in which the BSD unices had been widely and freely available on PCs in the 1980s rather than the mid/late 1990s as eventually happened with Linux. Yes, I'm aware that Linux was released in 1991, but it really only started reaching useful potential and use by 1995-1997 or so.

That's a deeper question, but it gets at the root of the matter: what is mere reallocation and/or creation of wealth tokens ("making money" and "moving it around" contra-respectively) and what is real wealth generation?

You can have external JavaScript dependency tracking, but you're not solving the problem, youre just moving it from one place to another.

If you want to manually manage it (or manage it outside of js), you can... but complaining that there are various tools that automate that process seems pretty nonsensical to me. Tools that automate things are good.

... besides, what are you even talking about. Requirejs config isn't that bad. If you want to grumble we can start with grunt files and (ugh) painfully repurposed make files.
>the game no longer trusts the client with coordinates and instead the client sends a list of jumps/flaps made by the player during the attempt. This means the attempts of other players are no longer seen in real time, but rather you see "recordings" instead.

They were never seen in "real time" anyway. Communicating more facts that could have been derived from a smaller set of different facts does not make it any less of a "recording" of facts or more "real time". Fewer facts to communicate may enable lower latency in their delivery, which is a better definition of "real time". Would it be any less of a "recording" to send the rendered pixels of the fish? I would argue the opposite.

Perhaps the point was that much more time was passing before elements of this list in the new format were sent, is that true?

Quote from intro:

"Although the symptoms of this compiler bug—spurious periodic reboots due to failure to reset the watchdog timer—may be relatively benign, the situation could be worse, for example, if the hardware register were used to lower control rods, cancel a missile launch, or open the pod bay doors."

So that's what the problem was with those pod bay doors.
