Not true. Finite automata (NFAs, DFAs) can match that pattern (and any pattern that doesn't involve backreferences or lookaround) in O(n) time where n is the size of the input string. DFA implementations are worst-case O(n ^ 2) in the number of states of the regular expression, but this is far better in most cases than the exponential worst-case time in terms of the input string offered by backtracking implementations.

See https://swtch.com/~rsc/regexp/ for information on finite-state-machine implementations of regexp matching.
Low altitude mapping orbit, Dawn's final destination (at around December), will be 230 miles (375 km) up, and will have a resolution of 120 ft (35 m) per pixel. Currently it's about 410m per pixel. So it's going to get a lot better.

Less-mixin wrappers are not the right way, but just one way that somebody once stated to be the best.

I used the semantic mixins method quite a while, and let me say that it does not feel that good. Once you have your html full of nice "article-box" classes, who will ever notice?

If you strip completely your css from your markup to re-use it in another project, you're left with literally nothing, if not a bunch of semantic classes than then may also be semantically wrong in respect of the new project (has the article become a tutorial?).

Using bootstrap classes are a convention you can reuse in other projects, as well as override when you need. If you strip your css then, and replace it with a vanilla bootstrap, you'll get a halfway good looking page you can work on.

It's perfectly ok to pursue semantics, except that semantic class attributes are the most useless form of semantics.

In a time where angular and react challenged the very concepts of markup/behaviour/styling separation, after the utter failure of XHTML (the parsable markup nobody ever parsed) and the mild failure of HTML5 semantic tags (whose cases of use are confusing at most, and overlap dramatically with the arya attributes) I try to avoid to be too strict about semantics.

Not just the US. And not just maintenance. Creating good infrastructure is one of the best of all possible investments.

The problem isn't that there's no useful work; it's that the genius of the current economic system - the one where it's every individual for themselves, and there's no such thing as society - is incredibly bad at deciding what needs to be done to make the future better for everyone.

So education at all levels is mediocre, infrastructure is deliberately crippled for profit, there's no systematic planning for the future at all - and people in work are still spending huge amounts of time on essentially pointless activities.

It's an organisational and political problem, not a technological one.

Actually it's more of a psychological problem. Getting humans to learn deferred gratification as a species turns out to be exceptionally hard.
Really looking forward to seeing what comes out of this. Very exciting news!

I think people should read enough from the classics to understand how old some ideas are — we tend to think of certain philosophies, narrative styles, jokes, and other things as relatively modern and usually they're much, much older than that.

Once you understand that, you understand that you can trace ideas through history and sometimes view their genesis and evolution — it adds a lot of perspective.

That's a very valuable lesson and one that can be learned from relatively little reading — after that, one may read or not read according to one's taste. Not everyone is cut out to go straight through Aristotle, or Livy, or what have you. You can get their ideas second hand (or third, or fourth, or five hundredth) - the important part, I think, is learning that intelligence, insight, humor, and wisdom are by no means modern contrivances (and may even have suffered a little over time).

> Then again, I'm also astounded that "tabs" aren't just a window manager feature (i.e. being able to group arbitrary windows into a single tabbed window, and noting when windows in a tab group spawn a new window and spawning it inside the tab group instead.) That would have cost too much GPU power decades ago, but it's costless with compositing window managers.

I'm trying to achieve this using i3 as window manager and a minimal browser like vimb which has no tabbing built-in. That way you can search for a browser page just like you would any other window.
Basically, the rule is that your first job after college should be with an employer that will sponsor your green card application. I knew that when I graduated and it was my number one criterion when looking for a job. Most of my foreign-born friends knew it too and they did the same. Most, but not all. The ones who didn't due to naivete, carelessness, or limited job opportunities ran into problems later. You have only 6 years on an H1B and time flies quickly. US society is in general very welcoming to immigrants, especially highly-skilled ones, so it's easy to forget that you are just a guest here subject to the vagaries of the system. Getting the green card should be the absolute priority when selecting an employer, no compromise.

This is a good thing, in fact lower prices/profits for oil is the only way to keep most of it in the ground.

Of course a carbon tax does the same thing, as does removing the tax breaks were still paying to corporations to prospect for yet more oil.

One nice feedback loop is that as countries shift to renewables they have more selfish reasons to introduce carbon taxes to try to stick it to other countries while looking progressive.

I recently moved to my own place from an apartment I shared with a roommate who worked in TV and insisted we have a premium cable package. We had an absolutely immense number of channels, but when I moved out I didn't even have a second thought about dropping TV service altogether.

Most of the channels I may have been interested in watching have slowly descended into drivel: Discovery, History, TLC, Science...they all show total garbage reality shows 24/7 these days. A huge portion of the hundreds of other channels we got seemed to be essentially filler garbage to inflate the channel count.

Aside from the content, the UI/UX of the whole cable experience is terrible. Our cable box was brand new and 'top of the line', yet was so slow that I'd sometimes count the seconds between selecting something and seeing any sort of feedback. The 'cloud DVR' service–touted by our cable provider as a premium feature that would allow you to watch recorded shows in other rooms or on different devices–would regularly simply not function, or, especially on nights when a popular series was premiering (Breaking Bad comes to mind), would throw 503 errors when trying to watch the recording.

We were spending upwards of $150/month for service, and they kept trying to sneak in rate increases. Towards the end of our lease neither of us-even my TV industry roommate-watched anything on TV. Cable TV is a terrible service and I'm glad to see that it's getting shaken up.
It's not a new concept, there are modern offices that use similar systems already. They're great, and just confirms the market for this product.
There are fringe, exceptional cases where this is a legitimate fear, but in the general broad-brush case, it's largely a self-fulfilling fear, brought about by the way people are treated when they come to a society that believes this. If they are given no opportunities when they arrive, and are segregated off into culturally de-facto ghettos, resentment brews over generations. In the cases where more open immigration is abused, such as the 9/11 terrorists who came to the United States, it's throwing out the baby with the bathwater to question immigration as a whole, rather than focusing hard on how to mitigate the exceptional cases of abuse.
Waho, that's bad, do you have more details?

>The unpleasant fact is that proper integration costs money //

For those selecting to immigrate why not put the onus on them to integrate too? Why should the onus be on the established population to adapt? [That's obviously not appropriate for some classes of migrant like refugees, but I'm sure that's clear.]

>The alternative is to create an underclass visibly different to the majority - that doesn't end well. //

Muslims in the UK often choose to be visibly different to set themselves apart from kafirs; they're not an underclass though. You don't have to wear a shalwar kameez and a big beard or wear a hijab to follow the Koran. [Non-abrogated verses do demand violent oppression of others though]. It's basically cultural AFAICT, predominantly British Islam appears to be about importing Middle-Eastern culture and traditions, like forced marriage, that had previously been forced out of the local culture at great length. Muslims in my city in the UK go "back home" to Pakistan or support the Indian cricket team or whatever, they're not interested in adopting the established UK culture but instead creating a different culture here. Islam is not just a religion it proscribes a legal system which by tradition Muslims are obliged to instigate where ever they are.

Cultures that demand other cultures to be subservient can't integrate in to a multicultural society, it doesn't work. In order to integrate they must change; for Islam that means it must become not-Islam, it needs to deny some of its central tenets to make it compatible with other cultures.

Thankfully most Muslims I meet seem to be not at all like the Mohammed [depicted in the Koran and Hadith] they suppose to try and emulate.

Eternal September appears to be universal property of online communities - IMO Reddit has tolerated it better than most thanks to it's ability to fractally segment itself into smaller and smaller communities that don't observe these issues.

The defaults are garbage, of course, but so would be literally any other community that size, so I don't really think it should reflect significantly on the nature of Reddit. They really need to start onboarding with "What are 5 things you're interested in?" instead of the defaults, though, or else the average first-time user will have no idea that this variety in community quality exists.

> why are we using space consumed as a comparison point?

Mostly, I asked out of curiosity. But now that you mention it, I think there is value in comparing space requirements. If you need a vast amount of space, you may have to build further away, perhaps in areas where there isn't already infrastructure to support a major power station (you need roads, utilities, level ground, and so on). That adds to the cost.

edit: Not to mention if you move further out, you have more miles of wire to transport the energy. That's more opportunities for something to damage a line and more time and money spent finding and repairing the issue.

> Should we not be comparing capital costs, cost per kwh, fuel costs, waste costs, and dispatchability? And not "but how much space does it use"?

Let's not get snippy and dismissive, I simply asked a question.
Also, I love Clojure's out-of-the-box minimalist syntax for explicit trampolining. But this one is not that minimalistic + requires additional import.

But there is already a sub-project to support TCO in JVM (but it is very old and progress is very slow...why? I think that's because recursion is rare in Java-world. Nobody actually need this):

http://openjdk.java.net/projects/mlvm/subprojects.html

http://bugs.java.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6804517

Aaand AFAIK it is very difficult (impossible?) to do automatic TCO in OOP languages.
Check https://archive.is/FfmYF:

But although it is well known how to automatically transform a tail-recursive function into a simple loop, the Java specification doesn't require that this transformation be made. Presumably, one reason it is not a requirement is that, in general, the transformation can't be made statically in an object-oriented language. Instead, the transformation from tail-recursive function to simple loop must be done dynamically by a JIT compiler.
It's tough to say without knowing all the details, but even though you may be getting New York rates going into your pocket, the companies that are hiring you are not paying taxes into Social Security, unemployment, workers comp, etc.

So you're actually still cheaper for those employers than having an employee in the United States; ergo, you're undercutting American workers.

The GC application should follow the H1B immediately. Don't accept an offer from an employer that cannot promise you that they will do that. Either they don't know what they are doing or they can't imagine you still working there several years later.
Claiming the "love" is unrequited rests on the assumption that policy is at least strongly correlated with the people's will.

As far as anyone can tell, this is simply not true. Hence, average American people can like someone without that acceptance being written into policy.

Very cool, they have outlasted my projections of how long they would be mysterious :-) As I've said before my bet is on water ice but the 5,000 meter "ant hill" is pretty impressive too. I suppose that Ceres is an ice ball with a dusty covering you might be able to generate a water volcano with the right conditions, still that is a lot of material to move around.

On commentator suggested that it could also be crystalline diamond, although how a crystal would cool slowly enough to grow large enough to be visible at this distance beggars the imagination. I consider that a long shot of the longest kind.

But people who object to the ice theory accurately point out that water ice would generally sublimate when exposed to vacuum in the presence of nearly any energy at all. Much like it does on Mars as shown in Opportunity's tire tracks.

Crystallized ice in hard vacuum exposed to sunlight seems an improbable thing. A shiny chunk of Nickel though ...
Frankly, I don't feel like Reddit's quality has changed altogether too much since even before Digg v4 killed Digg.

There was definitely a period where the average quality of a comment seemed higher. But those times also coincided with the rise of novelty accounts, power user personalities, often with foul sounding names and awful subreddits. Drama over subreddit bannings is nothing new, either.

Honestly, I'm enjoying the website more today now than I was a few years ago.

Three states if you want to process the whole input. If your model is "reject when you fail to find an appropriate transition" rather than "reject if, after processing the string, you're in a reject state", then you don't need the failure trap and you can do it in two states.

getc should in fact be reading all pixels in a single read() under the hood, and just pulling characters from a buffer. ISO C stdio streams are fully buffered, when not connected to interactive devices. Moreover, getc is often a macro which inlines the code of pulling a character out of the stream's buffer and updating a pointer, triggering the refill as needed. In my experience, using getc is usually not too terrible compared to writing buffering code to do the same thing. (I certainly wouldn't say someone was a bad programmer or academic for writing the code around getc. On the other hand, if they assigned the return value of getc to a char typed variable, I'd have a different opinion! :)
