It looks like the main difference is that SearchMonkey reads structured data, whereas Google infers structured data: even if the relevant data isn't marked on the page or in any particular format, Google will still find and surface

This isn't a React issue; this is a failure to use an abstraction where appropriate. React offers the classSet plugin for exactly this use case. http://facebook.github.io/react/docs/class-name-manipulation...

For fun: Stripe's CTF3 included an implementation of Gitcoin in which the work wasn't actually semantically valuable contributions to a repo, but rather brute-forcing the commit message until the commit hash meets a certain criter

I think that paragraph is a problem of poor formatting. Observe the context: > So pundits have proffered a number of suggestions for solving the public relations problem. > The company itself should take no money during surge periods…

What's an example of a language that, when adding two strings/chars, parses them as integers first?

As a non-lawyer, I would guess that you would receive the same safe harbor as ISPs do today: they can filter the content they serve, but don't until it's specifically reported to them, and aren't liable for those transmissi

The issue wasn't whether he allowed to press it; it was just way too easy to press accidentally. Even if I have the authority to press the big red button, I'd like it to be behind glass and far from the light switch.

Gotcha—I'd assumed property diffing was the way to go because it hadn't occurred to me that folks would be writing impure components. Thanks!

See the article's discussion of immutability in Elm. Om has the same immutability property, so configures React to take advantage of that property, skipping vanilla React's property diffing. edit: Rather, see masklinn's comme

Similarly, sometimes your sorting algorithm takes linear time because the input was a sorted list. That's the lower bound, but lower bounds usually aren't as interesting as upper bounds.

The solver doesn't obviously negate the puzzle's NP-completeness. It first reduces the solution space, then starts brute-forcing what's left. I don't have a proof on hand, but that just smells nonpolynomial. You could

The FCC is kind enough to list the number of comments publicly, which is valuable in itself. Most letter-writing campaigns and petitions go unacknowledged, but it's a lot harder for the FCC to dismiss comments that they themselves soli

That's the purpose. These folks aren't Google, but are actively trying to undermine the EU ruling forcing Google to remove these links.

I suspect that MtG's big advantage here is having a ton more cards. Hearthstone's meta is pretty straightforward because there are only a handful of cards to work with right now, but the upcoming Naxxramus mini-expansion should

Neat! A nitpick: I haven't used Haskell, so I'm trying to read the prime sieve example in the corner, but there's very little contrast between the background and the nonalphanumeric characters. Some brighter syntax highlighti

I don't think this is a coincidence, exactly. There was a protester shouting over the recent I/O keynote that Google is "a totalitarian company that builds robots that kill people" in reference to Boston Dynamics. Folks

It's not clear to me that flatness and the removal of the pin feature are related. It's very feasible to develop a pin-like icon that fits the current Maps design; the pin was probably dropped (heh) for other reasons.

I often leave languages off of my resume for exactly that reason. I've used Scala before, and I'd feel comfortable using it again, but I certainly don't know it well enough to handle on-the-spot Scala questions.

I started to read it, and got to "The constitution", but then realized it was a spoiler, so stopped. I was able to hear that part of the sentence accurately on the first try.

The ones I see all come from well-established accounts with decent karma. Could be that they were intentionally building up those accounts over time in order to sell out, but I'm skeptical.

Regardless of whether Youtube has a history of removing content, my (non-lawyer) reading of the Terms indicate that they definitely reserve the right to remove videos at their leisure. The agreement grants Youtube a license to all submitted

Might be because the script is injected during `onload`, which is arguably the very end of the page-loading process. But, yeah, the hint is clearly incorrect in the latest version of Chrome.

I agree that, if the SAT were ideal, there'd be no way to prepare for it in particular. However, a nationally standardized test must have consistent scores to be useful, and currently the best way to do that is to keep the general form

Making test prep materials more accessible doesn't really sound like affirmative action to me. It's not an attempt to counterbalance this particular socioeconomic bias, but rather to remove it.

Makes sense. I'd be pretty surprised if they managed to write all that on 9/11, for a number of reasons.
