yup.

If you set up a server-side aggregator, with keyword filtering (imagine a large list, something in the +thousands of words) and have your reader check for those words every few minutes, you're basically plugged into the search engine, completely bypassing their front end. You can suck up their results, then filter those yourself, again. Even when they give you a limited number of searches, you can still set up multiple smaller RSS feeds, then put them all in one big feed. Do this for multiple search engines and you never have to click on their pages again.

It's basically a free service with no return for a search engine, while they're paying for the processing.
>I have nearly 30 years of professional experience and my intuition is pretty reliable

Any other examples of it panning correctly?

In any case, let's check back in 2 years. I doubt Hack/HHVM will have more than 20% adoption even then. Criteria:

Number of hosting providers supporting it.
Number of posts on HN from startups using it.
Number of relevant community (forum and blog posts, contributors etc)
Number of new projects written for it (GitHub)
Number of new books appearing for it.
Rank in the Tiobe programming language index.
My personal view:

I am a technican. I want to see the number of results. I don't like AutoSroll. I remember the page where i find a result, so i jump to the page, with endless scroll, i did not find things again.

The sign of clicked links is a good idea.

Mark a personal favorite site in combination with my search term would be a great feature. E.g. i remember i search something about nodejs but i forgot the sitename, my browser bookmark did not help me. But when i see my old search about "nodejs" and the favorite or clicked pages, that would be a great thing.

Forget google, if somebody want to use google, he can use google. So please implement usefull functions that help people with their daily work.
There _was_ a project to add s-exprs to Haskell?! Hopes raised and dashed in the same five seconds! I'm a seasoned lisper learning Haskell, and trying to figure out when this parameter will go where is driving me crazy. "No you stupid compiler, I'm passing this to that, not the other way arrrg!"
Bitcoin only supports 7 transactions a second as I understand it. Surely that instantly kills any idea it could be the future of money?
This was never educational in so much as it's just a game. Kinda bored with people just making up pedagogy cause.

What's more boring and uneducational than a recreation of your country with a bunch of blocks. The attempts of the article to make it educational and fun for students are laughable.

What's fun, interesting and educational is messing around with it and seeing possibilities.

Personally I doubt anyone would have even visited if this hadn't happened. This kinda made it interesting and put it on the map so to speak.

And possibly this is exactly what the makers wanted, toss it out there, see what happens and go with it.
Interesting how persistently Bitcoin can make it to the hacker news front page. I would have expected interest to fade over time.
Well... wikipedia. The essential idea is revertability.
it's deflationary nature is also an argument for it!
There is a formal model of (the "interesting" subset of) Rust being created, which will hopefully lead to correctness paper(s).
Don't forget inclusion_tags. They are really poorly named though, they would have been much more popular had they been called "components".

The primary difference between an inclusion_tag and an include is that with an inclusion_tag, you can define the interface of your component with much more granularity. By default, each inclusion_tag is passed an empty context, whereas an include accesses all the data in the current context. This way, an inclusion_tag provides a much better isolation.

One other advantage is, this way, if you need to include some Python logic, you don't need to do all in a single view function. So, assume that your view function responds with a page with 5 components in it. If you follow the include path, all the data preparation goes into the view. With inclusion_tag, you can basically drop to Python at any level. For example, let's say you are viewing a list of questions and answers. Views do not allow you to attach Python code at the question or answer level. You can do it, but you have to traverse inside the data for the whole feed. With an inclusion tag, you can "attach" to the processing at the question or answer level.

For Angular folks, an inclusion_tag is very much similar to an angular controller. The primary difference there is again by default, Angular components inherit all the scope (similar to JS scope or Django's include scope), whereas react by default does not pass any variables, you need to pass them explicitly as props to the children (in angular, you need to add some information at the "directive" level to achieve this level of isolation).

One alternative for keeping the scope clean while using include is to use the "only" flag though, so if you are not going to do any data processing, that is easier.

That said, the use of inclusion_tags is a bit cumbersome, and I'm not making much use of it lately since I have switched to react.js and basically building my components in JS instead.

As I understand it there are 6 peers with the following situation:

- Between 1 to 20 ports between Level3 and that peer
- 1 of those ports is congested
- They are handling the upgrade together, which is business as usual.

Then there are 6 other peers with the following situation:

- Between 1 to 20 ports between Level3 and that peer
- Almost all of those ports are congested
- The peer refuses to augment capacity

"Congestion that is permanent, has been in place for well over a year and where our peer refuses to augment capacity. They are deliberately harming the service they deliver to their paying customers. They are not allowing us to fulfil the requests their customers make for content."

I had seen Mezzo mentioned on #rust-internals (or somewhere else relatively official), possibly by Niko, so it is certainly on the radar.
There are children who make sandcastles and children who knock them down. It happens so early, you'd swear they were born that way. I just imagine the latter are getting started early on their political careers.
Absolutely learn both! Make sure you learn macros well (I suggest Let Over Lambda) and Haskell's powerful type system. I know Clojure and macros pretty well, but learning Haskell the last couple months has been incredible. And then learn Forth, J, Prolog, do SICP in Scheme, etc. ;)
If this is a game of chicken, Level 3 and Cogent should play it to the end game. They are powerful enough to get Comcast and the other ISPs to concede. Just null route any interconnect that consistently drops packets and fails to get negotiated for an upgrade. The catch? It must be done by both L3 and Cogent.

Comcast is playing the monopoly card against what is an oligopoly of backbone providers. Comcast isn't strategically as well positioned as their actions would indicate.

It is one thing for Comcast to have degraded Netflix service. It is a different thing to present their customers with access to only half of the Internet .
I won't disagree with you that CI is outdated, but it was originally created to work around the limitations of PHP4 and early versions of 5.x. Looking back in hindsight, it may seem "badly designed", but that would be taking it out of context.

Also, CI out performs Symfony in the web framework benchmarks: http://www.techempower.com/benchmarks/. I certainly would never equate Symfony to "real speed".

I don't know if this implementation got it right (I don't have a spare month to prove/disprove its correctness)but my advice would be: be very, very careful with lockfree code in C++. This the area where dragons live.

Let me cite Herb Sutter:
"Second, it's hard even for experts. It's easy to write lock-free code that appears to work, but it's very difficult to write lock-free code that is correct and performs well. Even good magazines and refereed journals have published a substantial amount of lock-free code that was actually broken in subtle ways and needed correction.

To illustrate, let's dissect some peer-reviewed lock-free code that was published here in DDJ just two months ago [2]. The author, Petru Marginean, has graciously allowed me to dissect it here so that we can see what's wrong and why, what lessons we should learn, and how to write the code correctly. That someone as knowledgable as Petru, who has published many good and solid articles, can get this stuff wrong should be warning enough that lock-free coding requires great care."
Good way to stop high frequency trading then.

Except none of those things are true. Bitcoin is just a tinfoil hat combined with a prepper mentality, or libertarian wishful thinking.

The first 3 things you list can happen to bitcoin since bitcoin is just another currency.

The idea that it's intrinsically cheaper doesn't hold water compared to any other currency. Just because some transactions cost money on existing currencies doesn't preclude the exact same thing happening to bitcoin. Again, just another currency.

The idea that it's somehow free of national regulation is patently false. The currency may be "virtual" but so are all other currencies, I can send you money without mailing you paper. But the point is that the holders of the currency exist in the real world, not as entities in cyberspace, and those bitcoin holders and dealers can be regulated just like other currencies, unless they want to go to jail.
As a American consumer, Bitcoin doesn't have any value to me.
In addition to the volatility, difficulty of actually spending it, and its vastly higher risk as a store of value (theft, "beta" implementation), the US Dollar is already a cross-border virtual currency.

The increased transaction costs in current cards is transparent, and I get 1.5-5% cash back as a result of those fees. Anonymity is almost never a concern of mine, and if it is, there are simpler ways of moving dollars around, as either cash or one time debit cards.

Inflation is not an unalloyed evil, and as clumsy as Fed manipulations might be, I just don't feel that a free market deflationary Bitcoin wouldn't have as many (but different) downsides.

I can definitely see the value to countries unstable or hyper inflated currencies, but Bitcoin requires a substantial first world infrastructure undergirding it.

And from my emotional perspective, I resent that the inventors will pocket millions from being at the top of the pyramid.

Here's a serious downside of Haskell:

https://github.com/jwiegley/github/issues/25

Experienced and skilled developers (wiegley's open source work includes ledger and great contributions to emacs org-mode), and the task is to make the API client's base URL configurable. Should be trivial. And yet it descends into farcical stuff about whether they need to introduce a new github monad or to "abstract over a type class". It seems like the purity was really getting in their way. The issue was never solved. I may be cherry picking an example which serves to parody Haskell, but for me that example is really off putting.

This doesn't seem all that important. There are numerous bugs around most software out there which can cause it to crash. It's not good, but it's also not the worst one out there.

If it was that bad, it would have been fixed earlier. It was reported first in 2010: https://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2167&user=gues...

It was also fixed a few weeks ago.

Every time I've pitched anything technical to men, you can see their eyes glaze over the minute I start getting into any detail. It's not that they don't understand, it's that they assume I _don't_ really know what I'm talking about, and the value of my speech is zero.

I agree that these reactions aren't necessarily intentional, but they do happen, and until there is an acceptance that it does happen, technically-minded women will continue to be discouraged from launching technical startups.

Millions of non-geeks subscribe to podcasts. Those podcasts are delivered, (notification of new podcast), through RSS. The user doesn't have to know they are using RSS. They just download install any podcast app from the app store or the play store and search for podcasts inside the app. The fact that RSS is what makes it work is irrelevant to them but it does make it work.

I suspect it also powers things like Flipboard and Zite (no idea of people still use those).

This is only true for one-time-pad encryption. For a given AES-256 cipher mode and ciphertext C, there are at most 2 * * 256 possible decryptions of C. For most pairs of ciphertext and plaintext (C, M2) longer than 32 bytes, there doesn't exist a key K2 that decrypts C to M2. Even if K2 exists, finding K2 given (C, M2) with an average work factor less than 2 255 implies you've found a weakness in AES-256.

If you're spending a substantial proportion of your time generating database queries or rendering results to web pages you should look at using better libraries for doing so, and/or improving your own library-type code.

If you're talking about figuring out how best to present the data, that's not really "development" per se. But it is another kind of API, and again something that you can design more effectively using a test-oriented approach (e.g. start by figuring out the use cases for what a user wants to find out from the information).
>I'd love to do it TX side with a couple of op-amps though :)

All of this is TX side. There are a couple of oddball mixing RXs but that's not common.

Initially it was done with op-amps! My dad did some early modifications in some non-mixing radios for the makeshift F3B national team to take to the world championships a long time ago. These days it's just much much easier and more flexible to do it in software.
Sure, but I've never met a non-geek who used RSS anyway.

I thought of a similar but somewhat different system where cooperative users of a paying system would point free parking spot when passing by or leaving the spot. This would not ensure the spot to be free upon arrival of a user but it would give an edge and prevent the hassle of dealing with someone who (reasonably) wants the spot you supposedly paid for.

I thought of this while struggling to find a parking spot in Paris. Traffic jams and parking spot searches are great moments to have ideas.
There is no requirement that the code you see/edit is the same code that is stored and compiled.

Just as an editor can show → for -> and λ for \ if adequately configured, it can also show 'если' for 'if' and 'Функция' for 'function' (or, say, the chinese equivalents) while keeping the underlying code in english. It wouldn't even need any cooperation from language implementations or library developers, and it'd be compatible with all legacy code!

I'm not saying that it's a good idea, though, just a possibility.
No, this is completely wrong.

In 2011 I wrote an emulator for the LatticeMico32 processor [1]. After it was written, I decided to play the chaos monkey game and change some instructions, like reversing "less than" and "greater than", just for kicks. So the code I was actually running would be the equivalent of taking a program and replacing all > with < (and vice-versa). Much to my surprise, some emulated code still worked. It mostly did the wrong thing, but the fact that the code worked, printing stuff in the screen and all, still baffles me.
