Are we still evolving, since we usually die much after breeding ?

They are pushing stuff on the public API that has been available for years to “managed accounts” via Gnip.com. This makes the paid APIs more widely available - it’s now possible to start using paid APIs without talking to a sales person, wi

It's sad that we still have to make async I/O explicit in the code to obtain some efficient concurrency in 2020. Async/await is a huge improvement over callback hell, but this doesn't fix everything. The "function c

This looks like Go: The code is synchronous, but I/O uses polling under the hood, so that the programmer gets the best of both worlds. When a Goroutine would block, it's parked by the scheduler, thus allowing an other Goroutine to

> to the point of rolling their own syscall code It makes the Go concurrency mechanism possible, this is not just a kind of whim. Most importantly, this allows the scheduler to hook on syscalls in order to schedule an other routine. But

The machine could give the same UUID to different voters: - Voter 1 votes for Harker - Voter 2 votes for Harker, gets the same UUID. The machine casts a vote for Dracula instead It could also cast any number of fake/counter votes witho

This is a big improvement, however this is still explicit/userland asynchronous programming: If anything down the callstack is synchronous, it blocks everything. This requires every components of a program, including every dependency,

What happens of the parsed data ? Do the benchmarks account for the time to access that data after parsing ?

Can this be used to gain some informations about the content of a webpage, with a timing attack ? Searching a phrase on a webpage will be faster when the phrase exists, on average. If this timing is observable, this could be exploited to gu

Is there any benefits for using Apollo with React ? It seems that Relay provides higher level abstractions that Apollo is lacking (because it is framework agnostic). It seems that every Apollo user is going to rebuild the abstractions alrea

Who prevents Google from changing the number of votes here ?

by fooyc 8y ago
Just like this app, you seem to focus on protecting against the voter (or someone using the voter's phone). How do you protect against a compromission of: * The mobile phone's OS (by a virus, by the manufacturer) * The app's

Looks like functional programming sweet spot: data transformation.

by fooyc 8y ago
It looks like that you are working on stuff that may not benefit from OOP. You seem to be doing heavy « computations », you care more about the data than the logic around it. Probably Haskell suits your usecases more.

As long as Mixnode took care of the cooking for us, yes, using Mixnode’s SQL cutlery is kind of an alternative to cooking. Let’s hope that the food is varied enough and not too outdated, though.

> you can get data from many different places without having to run crawlers Is it really the case ? Can you really avoid crawling before doing that ? Article is unclear

To be fair, you can to use XPath in HTML as well

It’s not even an alternative to crawling. It’s just a way to exploit the result of crawling. You have to crawl first. Very misleading title.

Is this an alternative to crawling/scraping, or a way to exploit the result of crawling/scraping ? What they offer is not really clear from the article. It seems that they only provide a raw SQL interface over a database of crawle

ACID databases that can scale easily on multiple machines still don’t exist.

I love Go because I never had to write asynchronous, callback driven programs in this language. I hope it won't become the norm in Go, too.

The browser may disclose part of the JSON content in a "parse error" error message. A window.onerror handler could catch this message. I believe that some browsers used to do that some times ago.
