In my experience the dash is unusual (but not unheard of) in the US. I've heard people refer to it as a German or European 7. I've never seen the German 1 that is like an upside down V used by an American.

As an outsider (not remotely in any position to use amp or not) it looks like one of the positive aspects of amp is a utility with some associated carrot and stick to just get publishers to realize those things really are bad and need to be

For some it helps keep your own content lightweight: when your ad sales team tries to get you to make some change you know is bad (or if you dont know, amp tells you) you have a very explicit "we can't do that because it violates

I could just as easily say you don't value your privacy and security as much as novelty since you are going to arbitrary websites. People find zero days in image renderers, how do you justify not disabling image rendering? Your user ag

It seems like amp is trying to give users the same experience you have but without disabling JavaScript. Is that so obviously nefarious?

If your pages are 10kb then I think you aren't the target audience for amp. They say themselves that amp pages will never be the most light weight of all pages and never faster then perfectly hand tuned pages, just way way better than

I was an intern on a team that did some Kindle work in 2010 and the Java limitations at that time were definitely a very real annoyance for internal code: they didn't do anything like you are describing for Java bytecode conversion for

Math was far wordier back then, the only other weird part is breaking the exponent into its prime factors which doesn't feel terrible to me if that is how people computed out or manipulated them. Eg 2^12 being written 2^(2 2 3) has cle

I think even the more politically minded librarians are OK with a private company deleting a blog that has child pornography images on it.

FWIW I'm in the US and I get the laggy/soft locking up experience you mentioned all the time. I think they just didn't write the app to be very reselient to and RPC failures.

Most people don't want to be taught something like this though, and why should they? The system can do what practically everyone wants it to do without that user education overhead, which is what they are doing.

I actually just meant to point out some things launch splashy V1s and can still end up as commercial successes without transforming the world. I know it's sacrilege around here, but VR ending up like the current era of segways (hoverbo

Are you seriously suggesting that Bitcoin has outright replaced traditional currency in several countries? That's a pretty strong claim that will need some supporting evidence, I'm very skeptical there exists a country where the m

Interesting. From upstate NY I'm pretty sure I didn't ever see anything about matrices in algebra. We did use vectors and dot products but not matrices, though it was 15 years ago so I could be mistaken.
