I find the methodology of the research to be solid, the collectors to be representative of the different approaches in the field and the conclusions to be consistent with the gut feeling from experience:

"With only three times as much memory, the collector runs on average 17% slower than explicit memory management. However, with only twice as much memory, garbage collection degrades performance by nearly 70%."
Very nice descriptions.

While constructive reasoning is has many advantages, it has one disadvantage that is rarely pointed out, but sometimes causes real trouble.

Let's say we have a formula A which is classically and constructively true. It may be the case that constructive proofs of A are longer and more complicated than classical proofs of A.
If you are working with an interactive proof assistant, this may be the difference between the proof automation being able to deal with A automatically or not.

This explosion in proof size is the reason why the (perfectly constructive) nominal techniques of Pitts et al have been implemented to a high standard in Isabelle/HOL are are used frequently, but are not really in Coq.

Hi, I'm Tarik,

A young reader and contributor from your community. I always read you guys' technical opinions and actually am really curious about your view on life. Sometimes I ask following questions to myself and try to answer them. Now, as I believe you people are more experienced and older than me, I want to hear your answers if you are also okay to answer them publicly.

What do you expect from your life? What is your mission/goal in your life? Do you have anything in your mind? Who do you want to be when you get old?

Is it, really? I mean, beyond Winston's quip, what empirical evidence do you have to support that?

Democracies have been known for only a few brief periods of human existence. They emerged for a few hundred years, in a very limited sense, in one city-state within Greece, 2500 years ago. And then disappeared until just over 200 years ago, with some spread since.

Fewer than half the people on Earth today live in democracies (though it's close: 48%), only 12.5% live in full democracies. Far more live in autocratic regimes than any other of the forms measured by the Democracy Index: 37.6%.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Democracy_Index

The fastest growing economy in the world is solidly autocratic: China. Despite the claims of the benefits of both democracy and capitalism, many critical advances have come from countries which lacked one or both institutions: Nazi Germany developed jet aircraft and missiles, Communist Russia was the first to orbit satellites and put man in space.

I'm not opposed to democracy. But it seems it's got a few challenges as well.
It is considerably faster,so I don't think so.
A tale of two CEOs: misogyny, corporate governance, Carol Bartz, and Ellen Pao
Answer (1): As your specifically hired as an advisor for data science team, it in-a-way conveys that you are responsible to help them use/build an awesome data science tools and eventually build a team which can develop/maintain/use those tools.

I think, the most important question you should ask those guys is that, how exactly that startup want to use data?

It will help you to clarify your role and tasks within that organization.

Answer (2):
Always remember that you are advisor, you can advise data science tools/practises to the team which you built. If there are some persons who have much more experience, ask them to share their thoughts on a particular topic. But at the end, give your OWN advice. Your advice will be valuable even at that time, because you are building team in the first place.

Well on another part, is REMOTE OK for you guys? :p

edit: I realize OP says that he admits all the Atom packages are ports from ST, and he isn't really arguing for Atom > ST, just that "I guess I just wanted to try something new and so far I'm quite happy with it"...I guess I was thrown off by one of his initial statements:

> Atom 1.0 will greet you with a nice splash screen on start. The first you will notice is that Atom is actually a lot more user friendly than Sublime Text.

...and then he proceeds to explain how you have to dig through two menus to enable the basic "Preview Tabs" menu.

----

I appreciate the writeup but the OP doesn't seem to be experienced or knowledgable enough about ST to make a reliable judgment.

The very first feature he mentions is "Preview Tabs":

> Preview Tabs allow you to open files, have a look at the code and then open another file, whilst automatically closing the previous one, if no code changes have been applied.

Doesn't Sublime Text have this feature? You click on a file in a project and its name will appear italicized in a new tab, indicating that it's not quite open. Click on another file, and that new file will take the previous file's spot. Double click a file name and the tab title will no longer be italicized. What am I missing here? Even if ST didn't have this feature...this seems like a weak feature to start off a piece about why Atom is different/better than Sublime Text.

All of the plugins that OP mentions seem to already exist in ST. OK I can't say that for sure, since I haven't tried every single one, but this is what OP says about the Pigments plugin:

> Now this is actually something I never managed to do in Sublime Text, but in Atom it just works. Pigments pulls in the HEX, RGBa or HSL value and applies it as the background colour of your code. Great if you’re like me and can only tell the colours of two values, #000 and #fff…

This is a feature of the popular ColorHighlighter package (which also has a built-in color picker): https://github.com/Monnoroch/ColorHighlighter. ColorHiglighter does not highlight all colors by default, but perhaps OP didn't read the README where it says you can enable that feature in the standard Tools dropdown?

you can create your own audio player. (minified and obfuscated js) that interacts with your web server in random ways.
eg: the js get each packet from your webserver, reverses the bits before letting the datapacket continue onward to being played by the browser.

better yet, reenginneer your own version of LAME or mp4 that only your player knows how to handle. dont tell anyone about said protocol and nobody can play your music but your player.

profit? actually not.

because still, you aren't relying on the cunningness of your algorithm for protection but rather on it being an annoyance for the penetrator to deobuscfate your js and reverseengineer your protocol.

everything can be broken, provided there is enough incentive to do so.

They use the underlying core, but the code is their own. One benefit I see is that Microsoft gets to provide bugfixes to Electron that Github may find useful. As well as Microsoft may just end up porting some of their products (Office) based on their experience learned by developing for multiple platforms.

It searches reddit for whatever the user queries. Reddit returns up to 100 threads. I then choose a thread and take the top comment.

The neural network predicts which thread is most likely to produce a satisfying answer. The main features are number of n-gram matches with the question, the score, the number of comments, and some other metadata.

It's far from optimal but it does improve it a bit.
I can't speak to all religious traditions, I would say that in many Judeo-Christian traditions, that is not the case (and again, I can't speak for even a small minority of these traditions)

"Why do we do what we do?" or "Why do we believe this to be so?" are frequently asked and debated. There is an assumption that there are logical reasons for beliefs, due to physical, societal or psychological negative|positive consequences, even if those reasons are thousands of years out of date (not eating pork for example). Emotion can have very little to do with it.

On the other hand, there sure are many traditions that only emphasize feelings and emotions. I don't believe any is better than the other (each to his or her own).

A Cynic’s Guide to Fintech Business Models
>potential evidence...

I know you probably didn't mean evidence in a legal sense, but it is circumstantial evidence, and this is a reason why a competent, healthy company would not call in a developer for a fake interview with the intention of stealing his ideas. The costs of potential legal liability and reputational risks would far outweigh the small financial gain. Especially as they could just analyze the app, never contact the developer, and not leave such a big evidence trail

Maybe Amazon is not a competent, healthy company, or maybe a rogue executive inside the company independently arranged this evil scheme, but that seems so unlikely when they could just offer a few 100K, or employment, to get access to his ideas legally.

Anyway, my advice to the developer is: it's possible you were evilly taken advantage of, but it's improbable. What is probable is that if you go down this road of paranoid fear of having your ideas stolen, it's a very unhealthy path to follow, even if you are right a few times. Try to think the best of people, and usually they will return that favor.

Nice article. I really wished every scientific paper would have such a nice explanation. (I still don't understand why e.g. Google scholar doesn't allow people to add their interpretation and questions and remarks etc. to any paper.)
Ok, I'm all about that. What is the first step? Where to go? I'm looking for a few concrete actions I can do as first few steps and having a hard time finding anything specific.
I know many people reason like this, but I simply can't understand it. I can't claim to work on huge projects, but even when working on quite big ones the only "slowness" i notice is the launch time.

Surely launch time is basically insignificant for a text editor which you might only launch a few times in a day?
Consider that you don't have the necessary evidence to come to that conclusion. In particular:

- Fraud is something that happens a lot online, and Amazon is going to be removing stuff they think is fraud constantly.

- Looking through the source of a chrome extension is pretty trivial. An engineer can find the info without asking you, and an hr person has no use for that info.

- Tons of people don't get hired. Many companies don't give reasons for not hiring for legal reasons.
They dont care about something you have written on your free time. You need to answer questions correctly. You should never contact them for feedback.
It is significant when I want to lookup a single file. So one good thing about ST is that it can serve both as IDE and as a quick and simple editor.

What did you mean by your statement "The practical reality is that Reddit seems to have overtaken Stormfront as the world’s largest White Supremacy community."

I took it as a probable statement of fact: more White Supremacists use Reddit than use any other single forum on the web. That is, while the percentage of total Reddit users that are White Supremecists is likely low (although much higher you desire), the total number is larger than any other single site because even a small percentage of a gigantic userbase means there are an awful lot of racist Reddit users.

Others seem to be taking it as an indictment of the entire Reddit community, and assume you are claiming that everyone who uses Reddit is racist.

What did you intend by the comparison?

Anecdotally, when I went through recently subscribing to specific subreddits, I don't recall hitting any overtly racist groups in the dozen or so pages of offerings I clicked through. I was surprised though by the amount of porn that was offered to me. It seems likely that by some metrics Reddit must be one of the largest pornography sites in the world.

Woah - I've read quite a lot about that lawsuit, but haven't seen this accusation before:

"When Ellen Pao arrived at Reddit, her resume consisted of no accomplishments. She was filing a frivolous lawsuit against her former employer, private equity firm Kleiner Perkins, for sexual harassment. The only reason she had the job at all was because Reddit investor and rival firm Andreessen Horowitz wanted to lend credence to that lawsuit. In the highly competitive world of private equity dealings, Andreessen Horowitz viewed a cowed, demoralized Kleiner as a less capable bidder for funding deals. They cared little about how she managed Reddit and Imgur. They just wanted her to look like executive material in front of a jury."

Is there any evidence at all for this claim? It sounds potentially libelous to me.

edit: actually I wish I could take back my vote up on this article. There is probably some truth to the contrast OP is making here - but there are some pretty wild, unsubstantiated claims - and the tone overall just goes too far (wanting feminist marxists to all die)...
