"Facebook will adjust to allow for fake likes to not hit engagement and it will go away." How? Now the problem OP brought up is: if he got too many fake likes, his posts are not being delivered to his organic followers. This cause

Agree. Hopefully it will come true soon. However, so many CPCs are based on this model. If it's gone, how businesses can do commercial online? I've got a new business model for that, but so far failed to draw enough attention, due

You have a good point. OP was trying to show how to pursue computer science by understanding the meaning behind programming. But he deviated it to the software engineering which is a different scope to chase for. If you like to pursue compu

"The whole language is a hack." Interesting enough that it is a must for the web development although it's lacking the structure definition from CS point of view. How about other scripting languages, such as Python or Ruby?

Yes, I think so. It's under development. Other than that, if we build each smart device like Nest's, the cost is not acceptable when we are going to have 100 at home, all of which cost > $100 and have so many different apps to

It's a nice practice and showing people how he can manage this type of thing. Couldn't be serious about it, even the real-time data might be fake. There are a lot of people like to participate in the BTC game, it's not bad. B

This is a sad reality, different from the "reality" in the sentence. So I have to say: this is a sad fact. But I love that sentence. The nature cannot be fooled eventually.

It's unbelievable. Even in the tech world, I haven't seen such good quality of reports so far. Why is it not that popular? Maybe because it's a paid service. Thank you so much. Please introduce more to us later.

Your point is valid, and you gave suggestions as well. I agree with you that machines should not talk on the HTTP level, it's over kill. Machines only need very simple protocols to exchange current state if they do need to cooperate. T

So funny. You bet. It reminds me why we even make these things available online. Why do machines need to talk to each other? If they need to collaborate in order to complete some tasks, they should be controlled by human or program. You can

Yes, I agree that it's hard to define what is true distributed computing. That's only from my personal opinion. A good reference could be from Wikipedia: a distributed system is a software system in which components located on net

Yeah, you got the point. They are on the list of "reliant on big companies, and one big server". But "support geo-distributed clusters" remains an open task on Google's radar. See here: http://highscalabi

Your idea is similar to the existing distributed search engines which are up and running on many individual pcs of a P2P network. Unfortunately, they are not quite practical either due to the security (open local firewall) and duplicates fr

You have some valuable points. Naturally the internet is not a mesh network because nobody will take this role of gatekeeper without benefit. If somebody does, it becomes ISP again. However, although the current web is messy, we should be a
