But it has to scan/mark all the objects, not just the the unused ones. This has large overhead in big-mem apps. Not to mention that usually this forces the whole app into RAM (makes swap useless) and also potentialy drains cpu caches.
And to amortize this it often has more memory overhead (up to 2x) than typical fragmentation in a manually managed app.

Yeah, I've got an interesting website reflow project that's on my todo list and will make a big difference, but it's not a priority I can block time out for, and the daily stream of tasks that need to be done "now" means I rarely get to it, but simply adding more hours to my work day wont actually produce the desired/best work.
What is not clear in my mind is how long the Dakota shale boom will last. I have read somewhere that by 2025 most of oil that can be recovered at $100 will be depleted. So likely the price will increase sharply again. So what is the next frontier ? Arctic shale oil ?

For SaaS:

- freemium plan for 1 user
- paid plans based upon number of users

On-premise:

- download and install core product
- enterprise features like AD auth, redacting, workflows are paid for

We plan to put the core product source code onto Github so anyone can have their on hosted "wiki".

Hope this makes sense.
Even if it's orders of magnitude slower, that should be okay, because you're not going to be using it for the hard job of finding a solution, only for the easy job of verifying the solution once found. (I don't know much about Ethereum, so I don't know whether it has any arbitrary limits that would be a problem, but it should be okay.)
That's fantastic! Thanks for the information and apologies for making assumptions (dangerous things!).
At least in the game-hacking-with-a-GUI space, there very nearly aren't any.
How Online Product Stores Are Beneficial?
There seems to be a lot of context missing. I can't for the life of me come up with a simple example that demonstrates these services' value to me.
> > Web services are 'in' because that's the only way software can't be pirated.

> That is cognitive dissonance. If your revenue is derived from advertising then users installing ad blocking software is revenue-equivalent to users pirating your software. The fact that it's legal for users to do when piracy is not provides no support for argument that ad-supported services are on stronger financial footing.

It is not difficult to foresee a world in which "forging the appearance of a website" is illegal and userscripts and userstyles are forbidden as well. How many sites try very hard to block right click to hide their code?

There are five actors that can modify the appearance of a website:

* the author,

* the server,

* the network,

* the browser,

* the user (instructing a browser's add on).

By definition the author can do whatever they want.

But what if the server started serving slightly different pages, maybe with advertisements? This is happening now with hosted blogs and publishing platforms; it is frowned upon but accepted.

If the network changes the content of a page, for example adding advertisements, the network will have to face a lot of bad reactions, so very few networks are doing it now. (see http://justinsomnia.org/2012/04/hotel-wifi-javascript-inject... )

The browser is in a similar situation. When Internet Explorer wanted to modify the received HTML to "enrich it", there has been a big backslash from authors «Microsoft thinks they can improve my writing. This makes me want to get a gun and go to war.» «With smart tags, Microsoft is able to insert their ads right into competitors’ sites.» (http://alistapart.com/article/smarttags )

So the authors are against modifications to the way their sites appear. Their remaining problem is _the user_. Authors cannot force the user to see what they produced: users have the freedom to install an ad-blocker or strip the CSS away. But we have to realize that this may be only a temporary situation. With the app-ification of the web, userscripts and userstyles are gone. And the content producers are happy about this.

Podemos is just a symptom to the problem of corruption in the two main parties, they even menace to make a coalition if they can lose control over the power centers, and with the crisis and unemployment is the way of escape of many of the frustrations of the people. I don't know if they'll survive or will be assimilated(probably) but if they shake the dirty and corrupted politics of Spain is welcome.
'reducing base load demand'

Who is putting their hand up for their street lights to be switched off? For their hospital to run expensive co-generation when there isn't enough supply or it becomes to expensive? A lot of these statements are made by groups which just pretend that you can cut down a lot of energy and that's how they make their sums work. The BZE group do this with their calculations and it's pretty unrealistic.

The problem I have with all of these plans is that they drastically inflate the cost of energy for no real reason apart from dislike of certain generation types.

The demos are really made to demonstrate some basic input/output usage. Combination apps are indeed where we think developers will find the most value. We plan to have an app gallery to show that soon. Thanks for the suggestion.
That's exactly my point, the best anybody managed to say is that there may be some slight difference. Even then it's difficult to draw any sweeping conclusions since there's a lot of variation between languages in each family as well.
Cost can be prohibitive for scaling an app from a proof of concept to a working prototype. Especially for something that can't or won't be commercialized later.

For instance, I'm working on a web app to visualize a particular subset of twitter activity. Scaling the database to cope with performance demands may prove challenging on free project tiers.

Well, sure, but for a device that pushes some technological limits (a responsive touchscreen UI built into a credit card) I think seeing it in action is pretty important. So far all I know is what they want it to be like, which means little to me.
I wouldn't call them centre-left, they're a bit of grab-bag of policies e.g. some member have been a bit libertarian (which can be socially "left" but economically "right" depending on particular issues). But Xenophobia is the biggest theme, see for yourself:

You seem to be identifying what they did in your first line, then go off on some kind of wild tangent in the rest of the post.

As I read it, there is no case of any "service" or "subscription" happening here.

It's just a design that relies on a single point of failure to determine whether or not a product can perform its designed functionality, which might be a bit ... sloppy from an engineering perspective.

In general, answering "am I connected to the Internet?" without relying on things outside your control is hard, probably because the Internet is all about things outside your direct control. :)
Yeah it's pretty bad, even inputing a well written news article like this one: http://www.theguardian.com/fashion/2014/oct/08/return-of-joh...

The rest is mostly correct (although random punctuation seems included at times) but it's nothing you couldn't get by word matching using a big dictionary. It reminded me to get tested for shoulder pads though, so there's that.
It's already been done (LEDs for growing weed, impossible for cops to spot growhouses using FLIR helicopters and much lower power usage so spikes in energy consumption are far less dramatic).

I think in terms of impact, growing vegetables in a sustainable manner that uses little water will be critical for the long term sustainability of cities where water is scarce, such as Dubai or other cities in desert regions.
You should backup those off facebook. However consider carefully if you wish to keep that backup in the cloud. (and which cloud).
How do these services work, compsci-wise? Could someone link a few IBM publications explaining how the Question & Answer API works? That would be very helpful. The documentation pages explain nothing.

In terms of information density, it is pretty slick. Listening to it on a less-than-great set of laptop speakers in a not-quiet environment, it was nearly impossible to make our the words.

My advice: you are innovating in the speaking/presentation style, and that is pretty slick; if you care about it, bring it to the forefront by lowering the music level by half. If you don't care about the voice enough to put it far in front of the music, put the words on the screen so people can just mute it and read.
Because you're using a browser extension that breaks the web.
It's information disclosure at its finest. Something you _really_ want to avoid in a sensitive environment - which company internal comms certainly is.
I'd be shocked and amazed if someone broke into my locked computer. Someone could break into my house with something as simple as a rock, though.
Yep, that's the big thing that Virtjs allows compared to the others: listen to runtime events.

The Pokelib is currently a kind of proof-of-concept and, as such, doesn't map all Pokemon game events (yet!), but it already have a few nice abstractions, and it should get better over the time.

In the meantime, you can hack an Input Device to make a bot :)

This article sounds more like it's about how companies should hire better HR people. It's HR's job to know what kind of people they need. If they can't do that job, why would I want to work there? In the vain hope that HR is the only incompetent part of the company?

(Though to be honest, I don't think I've ever talked to an HR person when applying to a job; I usually spoke directly to the person I'd be working for, and they tended to be well informed. Sometimes I first spoke with an outside recruiter, but they don't tend to judge; they have no idea what it's all about, and they just want to send you to the job interview.)
Could this be useful for CPU lithography? Anyone know?
yeah, I just have the same problem here... and then I have basically the same question as someone mentioned below... new stories through the api? do we have to get the max-id and then get everything below the max-id and check if its a story? and other ideas?
Anecdotal counter example: Google 'sweepyface' and you'll find the sad story of what I would describe as a conspiracy theorist who tweeted thousands of times regarding the Madeleine McCann (missing child) case. The technical question of whether she was trolling and harassing people or merely tweeting her views repetitively is up for debate but she was 63.

Obsession and outrage comes from all types.
Well, suppose what you want to check is a proof of the Riemann conjecture in Coq, this might take some substantial time. So whether it is fast could be relevant.

> cells and all living things are self-organized reaction-diffusion systems

Sounds intriguing. Can you explain more what you mean?
"weak typing" usually means a type system (static or dynamic) where there are many implicit coercions going on. "strong typing" requires these casts to be written explicitly.

The only languages I know which would fit your definition of "weak typing" are Forth and Assembly (no implicit casts ever, no type checking at all). Maybe TCL, but I'm not sure. Anyway, using your definition, every other language would become "strongly typed". And this wouldn't be very practical, I think, because then we'd have no way of distinguishing type systems of for example PERL and Python.
> FN is rising in France.

What is particularly worrying is that through a mix of bad economic results and an economic policy borrowed from the right-wing, the current government is incredibly unpopular. At the same time, the right wing has lost most of its credibility due to both numerous corruption scandals (and more coming to the surface on a regular basis) and infighting. With a completely withered left, this leaves the road wide open to the extreme right wing.

Interesting that gcc removes the \n from the string and calls puts() directly - this avoids the overhead of parsing the string for non-existent format specifiers.

The decompiler could do with a bit of work making dynamic library imports more symbolic. Following the puts call chain quickly disappears into a non-local jump to an address with no further references.

He's saying that the back-end powering services which users love get switched off too often. Like in multiplayer video games where the central servers get discontinued, rendering the game useless.

This email reads like a tin-foil hat conspiracy theory. No evidence is provided for it, it's just a statement that some 'evil organisation' has forced an open organisation to do something the author didn't like.

I should note that the author has a bit of a tendency to see conspiracies of this nature[0] and has been banned from the LKML in the past[1].

I'm going to assume this is simply groundless mud-slinging until I see any evidence to the contrary.

There is an extremely simple solution that AirBnB will forever refuse to do: simply build a function that allows me to search for AirBnBs by address and file a complaint should I need to do so. As far as I can tell this + feedback provides a level of regulation that is a pretty decent compromise. I've been adversely affected by people AirBnBing in my building but I'm not against the overall premise of it, they just need some kind of system that allows people who are currently affected but outside of AirBnB to provide feedback.

Of course this would totally shrink their market size over night but...

Yeah, "letter of the law" defenses tend to work better when the intent of the rule in dispute is unclear. There's lots of arguments about the intent behind the 2nd amendment, which means it mostly falls back to a "letter of the law" interpretation. There's no dispute that the NSL obfuscation compromise is intended to obscure the number of NSLs. Revealing the number of NSLs, while still following the "letter of the law," wouldn't fly in front of a judge.

Dylan is not dead, but it did die at Apple. After Apple droped it diffrent companys tired to keep it alive. Now there is a small groupe of maintainers keeping the compiler and librarys alive that was writen in these companys.

Dylan is in many ways more advanced then Ruby. Optional types, macros, multi method dispatch, conditional restarts, optimized for fast compilation, gneric opject creation with 'make'.

From a feature standpoint, dylan can easly take on any other language that is outthere.
