µblock on android is the number one reason for firefox on android. For me A reason good enough to live with lags and stuttering.

Tried out Beta 3?

Just FYI vivaldi beta 3 is stable enough for personal browsing and works well with µBlock origin (AM) + flash control.

4chan made my day "it's pretty telling that when they turned off its ability to learn it "became a feminist" "

I dislike the fact that they decided to lobotomize the AI this fast without further studying. So it's probably just another markov chain.

You learn to evaluate technologies working in a relevant sector or studying some information systems stuff. No citation needed IMHO.

Would you demand citation if I tell you that 'mov ax, data' in assembler moves data to ax or look it up if you don't trust your own judgement at the moment?

But you know that the iCloud is moving from aws to the Google Cloud at the Moment?

An article about being smarter than the rest of the world and UBI written without mentioning Milton Friedmans concept of negative income tax or Götz Werner's basic income concept left me skeptical about the scientific entitlement of Ross Baird and Lenny Mendonca. E.g. Falsely crediting Nixon makes me furious. IMHO this Click-Baiting pseudo journalism constitutes a lot more about silicon valleys ignorance instead of its arrogance.

Wrapping a browser instead of using one directly doesn't make your application run in a non-browser runtime environment.

And to be completely honest, probably sacrificing a bit karma. All of your examples enforce my point of view on JS as a 'use it as minimal as necessary' language else avoid it.

Wikimedia is anything, but not a good example of a well structured organisation. The Wikimedia organisational structure is bloated and causes a high monetary overhead. Wikimedia spent $42.1 million between 2012 - 2013. Even estimated pessimistic that amount of money would be enough to run Wikipedia for at least the next 30 years with an estimated annual traffic growth of 10% (too high on purpose[0]). And that's a very(!) pessimistic calculation I quickly run utilizing our default BI for an international HA class 5 project.

EMBA here. Learned nothing I didn't already knew when enrolling, except for strengthening my opinion on ignoring certificates while hiring. In the end I wasted a lot of time and money to prove that I am able to waste a lot of time and money.

I did it while working full time, so I probably wouldn't do it again. For my profession as an executive it would've been more valuable to get a Bachelor of Laws instead.

Am I the only one who hoped for a google POV on BGP Transit when reading the title?

I think the title is misleading. That's just imcomplete basic mail server stuff, missing lmtp, spam protection, dane and a valid cert.

I wouldn't say that. I was after the money back then, but some companies actually liked that attitude of mine. Also lacking a product cycle those threads expired by themselves.

When I was young, I cloned services and wrote a letter to the company offering to buy a exclusive one year license or it would get released as open source in addition with a demo. That was giving me some job chances.

Now it's all about who you know, and what condition a potential employer is offering. No car, home office, solo office, dynamic hours and I'll walk out of an interview when the pay isn't obscenely high.

One time everything was right, but I complained to the managing director that the HR was giving me upfront bullshit during an interview, being not sure if I wanted to work In an environment where hiring is practiced that badly. This resulted in my first upper management position and allowing me to hire the employees of my department without HR in charge. Best decision ever, my best three engineers didn't even study. The hiring system is broken. In the technical sector even more than anywhere else, because it just doesn't make a difference for your skills if you have studied ivy league or learned everything necessary at home for yourself.

Every database I could think of at the moment. Even SQL-Lite is able to handle billions of rows.

Probably some xargs sed awk hacks are also sufficient for results in milliseconds.

You start getting problems when dealing with >128 TB databases like the legacy crm databases at Bayer and Siemens e.g.

But you have to be a little disabled to find such an idea worth to be executed?

That's probably still better then tolerating economic espionage. But since this very dreaming, I personally still hope for the new Audit of CAcert end of this month. The CAcert root certificate would be a reason for me to use letsencrypt only as a fallback for HPKP.

In memory of Honest Achmed there is none. And that comes from someone who works for a company that is a CA.

It hit me very hard yesterday when I heard he passed as he was one of the really big contributors to the technology we are using now.

Even harder when I first read of the dubious circumstances regarding his twitter account.[0] Arstechnica started an Inquiry.[1]

It's super interesting and in my opinion the last gasp the von Neumann architecture will go through is going to be a combination of graphene and photonics. Of course not in the next 10 years, but let's hope for the next 30.

> 1. Had they demonstrated the optical processing chips could be manufactured with existing processes by building a working chip?

They had a working setup for demonstration, also we were allowed to hold the chips, also you wouldn't invite the biggest german networking companies for lunch without having something to sell. So basically yes.

> 2. Did the chip(s) in question only route networking signals or were they capable of more general purpose computing?

Those chips were limited to route networking signals chip to chip or chip to backlane. If I remember right CompassOS choosed networking to get production ready as fast a possible, propably also on the interessents of their investors who were mainly network focused (e.g. Cisco, Comcast and T-Venture).

Edit: So Berkeley is again selling already developed Innovations as their accomplishment. “This is a milestone. It’s the first processor that can use light to communicate with the external world,”

On the 8th ISP and Carrier Lunch in Frankfurt 2013, I heard a talk from CompassEOS thematizing optical processing chips for a new Generation of routers. In my opionion It's kind of click baiting to talk about the "first" processor utilizing light to improve connection speed when I had similiar technology already in my hands back in 2013.

That's actually the reason windows is and will stay my main desktop system. Former Windows 7, now an "unfucked" Windows 10 Enterprise. It's just smoother than OSX or Linux Desktop and I always test some linux distros if I get new Hardware. Last time in novembre I upgrade to i7-6700k, Titan X, Samsung 950Pro 1TB. Of course it's necessary to have always at least one linux based server vm running I use putty to connect with. That's my ideal desktop setup i am using for years.

IMHO X11 needs to be replaced as fast as possible.

I am curious, how many people would prefer this fallback overr the actual site. I'd do.

The U.S. are working hard to stay the most developed third world country.

Wiretape your politicans. How would you get them convicted in the first place otherwise?

How can one country become another?

Since when was it possible to sync whatsapp over multiple devices?

That unnecessary limitation really disgusts me, since I am the type who deletes his whole chat history weekly because I don't want to carry it around with me in case of another targeted stealing attempt. I'd love to integrate my whatsapp xmpp account into pidgin.
