Intel has always fabbed its high-IP parts in the USA or strongly allied countries (Israel, Ireland). They will never put a fab in China because the Chinese will rip off all their IP. The fact that Intel has resumed construction of a half-completed facility in the same town where they make almost everything else is not really news.
There are features of some regular expressions for which the only known solution is backtracking. If you want those features then you "require backtracking".
If you were interested in performance you probably would not have been using boost::regex to begin with. RE2 is often an order of magnitude faster. You might choose boost if you require backtracking, but that's crazy anyway due to exponential time.
If you own two cars, isn't it actually you who have arranged your lifestyle in order to accommodate the electric one? And I feel kinda sad for anyone who feels that going more than 60 miles from home happens only once a year.
Combustion technology has also been favoring power over efficiency for at least the last 20 years. It turns out that once you get the car up to about 35 MPG, above that nobody really cares, statistically speaking. Specific power meanwhile has skyrocketed. You can now buy a 1000cc normally-aspirated engine that makes 200 horsepower.
I don't think you can say that IMDB's management is unaware of how to manage community engagement. It is an offshoot of a usenet community from the early 1990s and the founder is still actively involved in the site. IMDB is one of the oldest and most successful user-contributed media sites on the web.
Millionaire doesn't just buy themselves a house. They also buy houses for their children! One of my colleagues at work just bought a house for her daughter, all cash, in Piedmont where every house costs more than a million bucks. She's a mid-level software developer, nothing remarkable or extraordinary but she has that kind of money.
As someone who once was outbid by an all-cash offer on a house in Piedmont I had to sort of grit my teeth over that one.
The article addresses this. Actions taken by china affect all cities but only Vancouver in recovering from bubble pricing. Other Canadian cities continue to suffer rising prices. Therefore we may conclude that the cause is specific to Vancouver.
That doesn't seem obviously true. If you operate a service and I operate a service and their loads are out of phase the cloud provider can serve us both with one set of hardware, halving the price. If I own my hardware, and I'm not a cloud computing provider, I pay the full cost 24x7.
The amount of money on the table isn't 2 billion dollars. The amount at stake is the difference between 2 billion dollars over 5 years, and the theoretical best case operating costs of your own infrastructure, which very well might be higher than Google's because Google's scale is bigger. Snap might say to themselves that they don't want to be paying Google's margins, so they invest a billion dollars in development for infrastructure with identical performance costing only 350 million a year instead of 400 million. Is that worth it?
I once bought a $5 candy bar style feature phone with what appeared to be a 128x128 pixel LCD display, and it came out of the box with Facebook. Facebook is not limited by the number of ultra-high-end smartphones in circulation.
Maybe it is, but this is a path-dependent phenomenon. GAE allowed Snap to reach this point in their growth. If they had earlier focused on internalizing their operations they might have failed to get here. Now that they are here, it apparently makes sense for them to commit to GAE for at least several more years.
"We have committed to spend $2 billion with Google Cloud over the next five years and have built our software and computer systems to use computing, storage capabilities, bandwidth, and other services provided by Google, some of which do not have an alternative in the market."
There's some numbers for you that Google wouldn't have provided (as far as I have seen).
It's not Venice, that's true. I simply use it as an example of how a city of millions of people could easily be built in a compact area, without high rise apartment buildings, and with tons of open space.
S/MIME or other payload encryption is strictly better than SMTP STARTTLS alone because adversaries can easily defeat STARTTLS if they stand in the middle of the connection. Being so positioned will not allow them to disable S/MIME.
