The router and some other components are not only plain react ui components, they try to implement a Flux-Architecture with real components.
Flux: http://facebook.github.io/react/docs/flux-overview.html

A better approach (IMHO) is Fluxxor

And the benefit of the react router is, that you don't have to concern about the render / re-render.

With express you have to do everything by your own.

An Interview with the Potato Salad King of Ohio, Zack Danger Brown
I work in this industry. I've come to the conclusion that I will be leaving very soon. There are a number of reasons, but the primary one is because it's become clear to me that I spend the vast majority of my time on trying to figure out how to take advantage of flaws in exchange hardware/software. Sorry, I can't go into specifics.

That being said, I don't know if it is possible to create an ungame-able matching engine.
I get frustrated when people bring up Malthusian catastrophe to denigrate the real and important work that scientists are doing in the field of human longevity. Population growth curbs itself as nations become more economically stable. Over population is not a global problem, but rather a regional one.

Even Bill Gates has written about this, more recently in his 2014 Gates letter, but also in the following essay, criticizing the doom and gloom predicted by books like The Population Bomb and Limits to Growth.

Batch auctions also have the opposite problem, whereby it makes sense to submit your bids as late as possible, to let you utilise the very latest information prior to the auction close. This might actually balance out some of the FIFO advantages?
There is; but some devices aren't listed on Amazon and the prices can vary a lot. I think trying to show reasonable prices is a can of worms I don't want to open; especially given the little variance between them (ignoring the Pixel).
I think willingness to permit a referendum is largely a function of how unlikely a Yes result seems (or seemed when the Edinburgh Agreement was signed).

In Spain, where a Yes result in Catalonia seems likely, there is opposition to a referendum. In the UK the opposite is true.

Are they intending this is used for development only? I see numerous places where they remind you to delete your app when done, but nothing about what to do when you want to deploy for production?
From my perspective, it's very much the opposite. The Yes campaign are fearmongering - I've seen cinema adverts from them which essentially try to claim that staying in the UK would be the death of our children's future. "Think of the children" is the argument of people who have no other argument.

On the other hand, the No campaign are very open about the fact that they expect that Scotland can take more powers from the UK without becoming independent, which is a huge deal for those of us who consider ourselves British, and consider the UK to be our country which we have rights to.

On this page you can see graphical representation of Scottish and UK voting patterns, and how 'subtracting' Scottish votes would have affected UK results (in fact, very little):

http://theweebluebook.com/principles-and-politics.php
This referendum is not binding in any sense. The government in Westminster will make the decision, and it will not be made by the current government (there isn't enough time before the general election). If the next government is formed of different people, then under British sovereignty traditions it will feel no obligation to pay any attention to the referendum run by its predecessor.

In practical terms: if Labour gets into power in 2015 then Scottish independence will not happen regardless of the outcome of this referendum, because Scottish independence would eliminate Labour as a political force in the UK (Tories would win all UK elections, SNP would win all Scottish elections).

It's not over yet.
And what does it offer above ssh/ssl on their own?
It appears to be from https://trustly.com/en/ so perhaps they use it internally and are open sourcing it.
In a lot of FIFO markets, you will see price levels that have a large number of orders on them. Being in the front of this line is very valuable to a market maker. Many will have those orders there weeks in advance specifically for the purpose of maintaining a good place in line. I wouldn't see this changing in a batch FIFO auction.

But I've never seen such a match before, so who knows.

Not really. That just changes the game from "who can trade a picosecond before you?" to "who can trade a picosecond before the tick?"

The lack of live market book data means that you won't need the ultra fast connections, so at least one part of the networking arms race becomes de-weaponised.

You still have the problem of it being advantageous to bid at the end of the auction, but this could be solved by pricing. Just like the exchanges give incentives to offer prices rather than to take them, they could make bidding at the start of an auction cheaper than at the end of it.
BBC is a British institution and as such support for Britain is ingrained (imagine US TV stations providing unbiased objective coverage of an 'independence for California' referendum). In Scotland, the BBC is a cash-starved token organisation with close familial and friendship ties to Labour, the erstwhile establishment party of Scotland.

So, in my entirely biased view, the Beeb is very much on one side of this argument. Not as a result of some silly straw-man conspiracy theory, but just because the views of its people are bound to seep into coverage.

"The government in Westminster will make the decision"

Sorry no - one way or another the people of Scotland will make the decision. Whether the government of the UK lives up to that decision is up to them, I honestly believe they would abide by what the people say.
Here's some irony for you: the Tories, who are the people the "independence movement" is complaining about, would gleefully sign off on Scottish independence because it would give them complete and permanent dominance over the rest of the UK - without the Scottish MPs there is no possibility of any other party controlling the UK government. (Post-independence Scotland would likely have a very unhappy experience negotiating with a permanent Tory government)

LDs will back the outcome of the referendum whatever happens. Labour are the only party that might attempt to ignore the referendum because Scottish independence will end their existence.

I can't see the Scots rushing out to vote labour if they reneged on the outcome of a referendum.

Labour would still be able to win elections in the UK without Scotland (in fact Blair would still have been PM without Scotland), At most some policies would change, or worst case another party rises as competition.
The SNP probably brought in voting for 16 and 17 year olds on the basis that it might counter the strong 'No' vote in the 60+ group.

However, that group is fairly equally split (45% Yes/44% No). I reckon they underestimated how strongly popular culture, which is focused on London, influences the 16/17 age group.

It's also a function of how much the rest of the country cares. In the UK the political classes care an awful lot more than everyone else.

One of the great confusions of separatist movements is they seem to always want to pull away from a host that needs to be seen to want them at all costs. The idea that the host may push them away or act indifferently is met with moral indignation.
This is an arrogant power play that's lost me a lot of respect for the perpetrators. They clearly don't respect Gruber enough to honor his intent for the language. And don't give me that "it's successful in spite of its ambiguity" nonsense. A standard inevitably makes people find ways to work "within the rules" while doing crazy stuff that the language is not intended for (like many people in these comments). Markdown's lax specification ensures that people honor the intent, not the implementation, and keeps it immediately understandable and grokkable. Also, it's genericized? Are you kidding me?

They could have called it anything else, but they just had to go for full ownership of the spec. I hope all the indie App Store developers that Gruber is friends with shut this "standard" out.

This is silly. HFT is a $10-50B/year industry, depending on who's numbers you go with. (You can ballpark the numbers by multiplying trade volume by the spread.)

For comparison, Morgan Stanley alone made $8B in profit in the last quarter [1]. HFT is tiny, a drop in the bucket compared to the rest of the financial industry. Further, many big players in the industry are against HFT since HFT reduces their information advantage over smaller players [2].

The danger in a 1-second tick is that a) a massive change like this is hard to do [3] and b) it would likely increase volatility. A stylized fact of dynamical systems is that continuous feedback reduces volatility, whereas discrete step sizes increase it - witness how many numerical ODE solvers can blow up even while the underlying ODE is stable.

The "bias" in the BBC is primarily to "favor" the current government of the time by not running highly controversial stories until they have become mainstream. They also avoid running purely political stories outside their politics section, like "the privatisation of the NHS" (which is a Labour party press release, not a thing that has happened to report on).

What they don't do is run directly biased stories; they're "neutral" in the content they put out, and any perceived bias is the result of their tendency to hold off on running boat-rocking stories. You could easily argue that this is a bias in itself, but it's not a partisan bias and it's hard to see how they could do this differently; it comes from their entirely legitimate fear that if they annoy any current government too much then they might lose the license fee advantage.

> That would symbolise everything the independence movement asserts about the arrogance of Westminster politicians and their alleged couldn't-give-a-damn attitude towards the Scots.

What, any more than Maggie? I agree that it would be extremely unpopular in Scotland, but there's ways to spin independence referendum results for propaganda in the outside world. Claims of unclear/biased question, claims of voter eligibility "irregularities", claims of bad faith independence negotiations, etc.

If push comes to shove who's going to ostracize UK over 5 million people? U.S. wants HMNB Clyde to stay, big European countries will be afraid of UK leaving EU, and the UK doesn't listen to the rest anyhow.

If UK wants to hold onto Scotland against its will they will, but let's hope they don't.

(I favour independence if Scots wish.)
Atleast for some of the Samsung Phones which are becoming quickly popular for custom Android-based operating systems.

Some setups with an independent USB to a baseband module can still control the bus to other devices by exploiting USB host modes. (i.e. if the log output indicates it can no longer control/communicate with the usb, or the usb disconnected, then it is very likely the usb bus was hijacked by another device).

Others phones still have some type of bus overlap, and they provide no way to block the baseband chip from accessing other devices on the shared bus.

Even then, this is not an easy task as the baseband chip would be competing with the processor chip in accessing devices.

edit: It is possible in future revisions, SoC Chips in mobile phones in the US will include capabilities to control the phone irrespective of the running soft OS. As of now there are very few phone manufacturers that include open access to the phone's hardware, and the processor. It's a hunch the US companies will try to blockade open phones, as foreign phones, particularly Samsung/LG/HTC, are providing a way for secure phones to be developed. Apple's attempts and level of aggression to blockade Samsung all around the world was incredibly suspicious, to say the least, and only S.Job sycophants tend to think it was for 'competitive' value. The US is fast becoming a strange place.
There are a lot of misconceptions in your comment that we need to unpack.

1) there isn't that much money in HFT. It has an ever decreasing number of players working for an ever decreasing amount of profit. Other areas of finance such as hedge funds, traditional investment banks, and derivatives creation are much bigger and have just as many "smart" people working in them. Don't get me started on advertising...

2) HFT doesn't turn time into money. It buys & sells risk in the form of liquidity. One way that it does this more efficiently is by being able to get in and out of positions fast.

HN, predictably, has a huge bias towards the capital raising/allocation side of the financial markets, but this is not why most participants are involved. Hedging risk is another huge (probably bigger) reason the markets exist. HFT allow that risk to be hedged more cheaply and more predictably so they provide value to the rest of the market.

> It seems right that the Conservative Party should have representation in Scotland's politics, but it seems wrong that Scotland is ruled by them.

That's a bit like saying that you only believe in democracy when it's your own party that wins the election, otherwise you'll take your ball and go home.

One thing to note is that prior to the current Conservative coalition, we had a huge Labour majority for 13 years that was largely Scottish. So the Scots were ruled by a party that they voted for.

When we talk about independence, we're not talking in the same way as say, India for example. Where we had one nation that was immensely ethnically and culturally different, being ruled by people who had no interest except in what they could squeeze out of it. This is two countries that have far far more in common than they do apart. Not one country being consistently screwed by the other; the Empire and the Union was fantastic for Scotland, as the article states.

So the argument here is - are the Scots so different from the rest of the UK that they need to be ruled separately? To a greater degree than now that is; they already have their own parliament to set most Scottish laws.

NB: I'm pretty neutral on independence. I think it'll be a bureaucratic disaster if it happens, but equally, if it's what the Scots want then fair enough.
A new party isn't necessary , Labour/Liberals would poach ambitious tory backbenchers by offering places in the shadow cabinet and UKIP would poach Euroskeptics. Most of these MPs could probably take their seats with them.

Batch auctions already exist in electronic markets. They still allow for huge advantages for speed.

If you want to get rid of the speed element (I'm not sure it's a problem) you should explicitly allow people to pay for priority. The easiest way to do this would be to allow for extremely small fractions of price. So instead of having to pay for faster lasers I could just change my pricing structure to tack on .00001 on to the price.
Yet, as a portuguese, it's hard to dismiss his claims. The queues and slow state services, the "fucking people over" (mainly in employer-employee and vendor-customer relationships), the lack of information in english (unless you consider the restaurant menus as sufficient)... well, you run into this every-fuckin-day.

He may be escalating his issues, but - again, as a portuguese - I don't think he got the wrong idea about the sad state of affairs here.
From what I understand batch auctions would match every participant's first order with everyone else's first order. Then all second orders would be matched together, all third, and so on. I think this is how one of the FX exchanges is doing it now (or will be soon).

Note that the batteries do not store 350 W/kg, but 350 Wh/kg. That means the majority of weight is batteries, since you need 1 kg/kW for the day but 1 kg/kW + 12 h * 1 kg / 350 Wh for the night, giving a total of 36.3 kg/kW of continuous power. The article implied that these things could not store enough power for the nighttime, which is easy to believe from those numbers.

An RTG at 2 kg/kW would be so ridiculously good value that it makes you wonder what has changed about aviation drones to make this viable only now. Is it really just the radiation thing?

Learning IBM 360 assembly is hilariously useless for any practical purpose; where are you going to find one to run it on outside an emulator?

ARM is probably the best combination of "actually useful" and "suitable for beginners". 68k might be useful if you're into retrocomputing (Amiga, Sega Megadrive, et al).

I learnt 16-bit Intel assembly for games purposes 20 years ago. Since then I've occasionally needed to read 32-bit and 64-bit Intel but never to write it. The default portable assembler is C.

Assembler is as much a mindset as a specific set of mnemonics, anyway.
