Agreed. Still it seems hard to beat Go's combination of performance & development speed.

Good points. Likely C would be as fast, but a lot longer to code it. What I mean by custom is that every user gets a unique page. Unlike, say, Reddit, where concurrent users potentially see the same front page by default.

Go is freakin' fast, I think

The manufacturers were the ones who brought up the RICO case. They lost in court. The judge effectively ruled that users are liable for patent infringement.

Not bad. Do a search from SEA to RNO to see that there's a "via SEA" choice. I'd clean that up.

This, but keep in mind that if you reveal how it works or it's obvious how it's working you'll open yourself up to patent trolls, who will almost always have an earlier patent similar or broad enough to sell to a jury. Sometimes it's best

How was 5 ms added? Multiple sleep states per request? I imagine the long tail disappears in a similar way that a traffic jam is prevented by lowering the speed limit.

Hi, I'm the OP. It uses Go's web server. You'll notice some adaptation to your interests today, but it'll be tomorrow (one day after this launch) before full effect is approached. It pulls from 4000 news sites and blogs including lots of te

Best not to compare yourself to others, as hard as that may be. Many people's achievements seem to be at odds with what they say they want to accomplish, like travel or hobbies. Have goals true to yourself and ignore what others think.

Keep in mind I'm not the highest tech type of person, so I might not be getting it... If I had need for exclusive content in an exclusive place, I'd have an extra Dropbox account for that, and connect to it only when I'm in that place. What

I suspect it's a human or two, manually selecting RSS or Atom feeds, and sifting out any complainers or problem feeds.

Omit the education section from your resume. I bet no interviewer asks you about it, even if they say they require a degree.

From GPLV3: "One of the fundamental requirements of the GPL is that when you distribute object code to users, you must also provide them with a way to get the source." Presumably MSNBC didn't distribute object code to users, in which case t

I'm not going to increase memory allocated to Linux from 2GB to 4GB+ to run MS Office, even if it's free.

When assuming that humans are causing the lion's share of it, among the best things to do is to encourage people to have no more than 2 kids, and for them to share the message.

That's how I interpreted it. Once you sell a single copy of something you made, there are now two equal owners of it. The new owner worked really hard to make that copy, so it's fair.

There are more crimes committed under their purview than they have the resources to investigate. Therefore they should prioritize. They obviously prioritized wrongly here.

It implies to me that they have better things to do. The crimes blatantly committed during the last financial crisis could easily be keeping every available FBI agent busy now. Instead the way things are going we'll likely see the statute o

Forgive. Half of Americans think it's okay to imprison suspects for life without evidence, to kill suspects and their families in drone strikes, and many well-respected tech companies do all sorts of grievous harm. No apologies. So maybe wi
