Google posted an update saying that the problem is restricted to their local tools, and not PageRank, so that's good. But many places still use PageSpeed, and I wouldn't bet anything vital on clients noticing iframes.

Maybe for PageRank. But as long as the Lighthouse score is gameable, we're going to see a lot of web shops use these techniques to appease clients.

Even if Google fixes that loophole, I think the larger point remains, that if they're exempting iframed content from their calculations, we're going to see a lot of SMB site builders sticking stuff unnecessarily in iframes just t

I'm surprised Google allowed this hack. I wonder how long until they fix it?

Back in grad school, I used to TA for Dr. Mischel of Nim Chimpsky fame. A lot of researchers badly wanted to prove language in chimps back in the 70's, but it all amounted to naught, and other than a few holdouts, the field moved on.

We decided it was ridiculous to offer $1.5 billion in incentives when we would never recoup that, so we protested. Amazon paid no federal taxes last year ( https://www.washingtonpost.com/us-policy/2019/02/16&#x

Anarchism was a 19th c. socialist movement, and anarcho-communism was one of its main strains, if not the biggest. Given its origins, it shouldn't be a surprise that anarchism is collectivist. Anarcho-communism is contrasted by anarcho

You're not wrong in your analysis, but as a student of Orwell, I object strenuously to the idea that the fight over what words mean is pointless.

by KingMob 7y ago
That's not what anarcho-capitalists mean when they use the word "anarchism", though. They are explicitly claiming a relationship to 19th c. socialist anarchism, not that "linguistic analysis means this word used elsewher

He's an anarcho-capitalist, which has little in common with most strains of historical anarchism, despite the name.

by KingMob 7y ago
Have to chime in here, since I once studied the history of anarchism as a social/economic/political movement. Anarchism was overwhelmingly a socialist movement, contemporary with Marxism and communism. Many anarchists debated the

The issue with thinking of RAM as a "tape or disk drive" is that a tape has linearly increasing access times, but RAM takes the same time to access any part, so this algorithm wouldn't be ideal. Even most of our external stor

No. It depends on a library called nREPL, but you can start that in multiple ways (the other candidates being tools.deps and Boot)

Can second this. Not a PHP fan, but modern PHP is ok, and very popular. Laravel is pretty awesome, though, and explicitly inspired by Rails.

As fcurts below mentioned, [Graal's native image generation]( https://www.graalvm.org/docs/reference-manual/aot-compilatio... ) might be what you want. It can turn a Clojure app into a single executable with ex

I didn't say there were no breaking changes, just fewer than most languages.
978.
by KingMob 8y ago
Maybe, but this was true even when Clojure was younger still. The language changes are overwhelmingly additive; Hickey places great stock in not breaking existing code.

Ummm, you're the one whose position makes them equivalent. Either humans are responsible for the algorithms they deploy, or they're not. To argue unintended effects can be ignored in one case but not the other is inconsistent.
980.
by KingMob 8y ago
But at the end of the day, humans are still in charge, not algorithms. If they can't adequately control the algorithms, perhaps they're not ready to be deployed. To see this a little more clearly, if a military deployed autonomous

Party REPL is a multi-party Clojure REPL. The authors just gave a great talk on it last week at Clojure/Conj: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AJING0Vigpg Even if you're not into Clojure, it has a lot on the intern

The Lindy Effect in action again. People should always seriously study things that have survived a long time, instead of downplaying them due to neophilia.

by KingMob 8y ago
LSP seems like an interesting concept, but it would be nice if it included more support for REPLs. I'm thinking of things like "evaluate highlighted section" or "recompile function under cursor".

Yes, spec is a run-time tool. It's capable of multiple things, but it's mostly used at dev-time to validate fn inputs and auto-generate spec-valid data for testing. It's usually disabled on production except at the edges of t

While Slack is the most popular forum, there's also Clojureverse.org, which aims to be a more threaded and permanent repository of Clojure discussions and knowledge.

I don't think I was clear enough. Yes, React (and others) has adopted things from Clojure/script, but to me, that's a sign you're using inferior tools that are several years behind. E.g., I used to do a lot of PHP, and m

What are you referring to by "instead of using ClojureScript with Om, people mostly jumped to JavaScript + React, which the Om team later praised as being the same concept they had in mind, but with a simpler and better API"? Om u

I use Clojure in the large, and the lack of static typing isn't something I miss. FWIW, spec allows you make similar guarantees if you use it (technically more, since you can express more than HM type systems). I think the static/

A perennial problem in Clojure is libraries that reach a mostly "done" state tend to look inactive to outsiders, because the language is so stable there's almost no maintenance work. So inevitably, someone will ask "Is l

I can only speak for myself, but I'm definitely much, much more productive using Clojure. I think its absence from HN is more reflective of a less-than-stellar onboarding experience for newcomers, and HN's general neophilia.
