So much of regulation is just a round-about to creating business for regulatory compliance.

Yeah, tongue firmly in cheek, but that was a very specific, prescient analysis.

That's bananas. Bro is about to get a knock-knock.

Got it. I guess that was just illustrative, though, because why isn't "reduce average page load time from 3s to 1.5s" the objective? Ah, I see. It bubbles. Explained by https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=409

I swear this is entirely earnest. That example works. Except: >So you'd plan to add 10 additional formats. If you add 8, you've achieved your goal. My plan was to add 10, and I added 8. I achieved my goal?

What is an OKR? update: dead serious. I searched. It says "objectives and key results." But what does one look like? Is it a document?

I like it, too, and I absolutely love kagi. Just clarifying because the original question asked for browsers based on firefox.

Hang on. What does it mean to disable this? 1. Does it disable measurement? - or - 2. Does it disable the privacy-preserving feature, i.e., enable tracking? What I really want to know: is it better for me to check the box or not?

>The approach allows measurement without disclosing who, specifically, did what with the ad. Doesn't this break most modern methodologies. Can I do next best action without knowing who did what?

What feedback are you getting? The implication is that you have users that are constantly surveilled by video and input device monitoring, and that they are telling you they are enthused.

Specialty stuff like high frequency trading, risk models, bespoke instruments, and other non-retail products. Like if you're doing HFT, you're probably rolling your own loops. But the broader point is that this piece is about acco

The string "3.99" always comes back as a string, but when you need do anything at all to it, it resolves down to the same problem.

Yes. The data type itself supports arbitrary precision. I'm not suggesting that you chose the precision arbitrarily.

by ibejoeb 2y ago
We're basically talking about bookkeeping systems here, rather than high finance. Use a good relational database. 1. ACID, so you don't have to invent it. 2. Arbitrary precision numeric data types with vetted operations and roundi

This is worthy goal, but it's approaching "perfect is the enemy of good" territory. By the numbers, in order to get broad adoption and power in the market, they should not focused on being the accessible browser. They need

The "weather" discussed in this piece is just temperature.

Who remembers Ext JS? Ant is like that for reactive js kits. It's got pretty much everything. It certainly is useful for building internal products.

That's just not true. No turbulence is better than turbulence. That said, experiencing light chop on a modern large airplane presents no danger to the airframe or properly secured passengers. You really should be strapped in, though, e

That doesn't look very scary. More like a six-foot turkey.

The last time I used it, which was probably pushing 5 years ago, it was a big drain on the battery. It was enough that I went back to Terminal.app. Anyone else experience that? Has it improved?

I'm sure there are many contexts in which this is a good idea. For many others, though, I like to be able to press, move whatever pointing device I'm using from the hot zone, and release to cancel the action. It's like holdin

2,000 fpm sounds like the pilot changing flight level to evade the turbulence, not the turbulence itself.

The 787 has been in the news very recently for two possibly related incidences of sudden nose-down resulting in similar injuries. They aren't turbulence related, but writing "Boeing" and "injury" in the same headl

Accurate. But when you get off the plane in Tassie there's the k-9 search...

I wonder how much experience he has flying commercial. The seat maps aren't particularly accurate because some are under gate control, or some are inop, etc. He could have probably estimated the chances of being at capacity based on th

I mean that I'm surprised that there was a fuss over boarding at the wrong gate. If you had a ticket, regardless of the name on it, you could walk into the airport, go to the gate, and get on a flight. It's a different situation,

Hmm, that's odd. A few years ago, Australia didn't even check ID.

That doesn't sounds like a bug. It sounds more like a change that's not backward-compatible. Who forced Microsoft to switch versions? I'm sure many of us have been on both sides of this situation. Sometimes you have to deal w
