Most startups I know would consider this the primary requirement for new hires.

How do you know whether users have opened an email or not? Or do you mean interacted with the email (i.e. clicked a link)?

Yes, but a lot of data transfer happens on the backend without the client being involved.

I wish it were that easy. Good start, but Facebook will still: 1. Get your data from other websites/apps that you allow 2. Get your data through your friends that use Facebook

Seriously, it's a pretty terrible header when it takes away most of the supposed impact of the article before I even start reading it.

Amazon is also laying off a lot more developers than Google is.

Will you make a fresh HTTP request every time the client needs to render a component? You could persist data client-side to make things more efficient. It would be best to use a state container to manage this. Maybe something like Redux?

HTTP on top of TCP, with DNS (also on TCP/UDP) used for resolving domain names.

If the "godlike AI" could find bugs before you wrote the code, it may as well just write the code instead of you.

Well he wasn't sentenced for any of those things. His real "play" was securities fraud.

I think it's because more casual and lower income demographics have started visiting museums in that time period.

Why would you put an official company announcement on a medium.com domain? Is there any way to verify that the person/blog is who they say they are?

Can't Chrome extensions already intercept network traffic though? Why does this need to be done at the CSS level?

The ruling and article only mention Facebook but I don't see how everything in it doesn't apply to every single app/website that does targeted advertising.

Even Amazon, with all the server capacity in the world, is not going to be able to store and process every sound heard by every Alexa in real time.
167.
by paxy 9y ago
The entire point of Alexa is to be able to talk to it from wherever you are, so doesn't walking up to it every time defeat the purpose? A regular speaker is cheaper and has much better sound quality.

Alexa and all other "always-listening" devices do have the standard on-chip processing mechanism. The article is about how the trigger can be expanded from a single word to a broader range of sounds.

Github has the right to "manage usernames" however they see fit. The problem is that a third party is making assumptions about these usernames and basing their entire security mechanism on it, even though that assumption is incorr

According to the article, "can" = has the capability to. Isn't that obvious though? Any internet connected device with a microphone has the capability to always listen to what you say. Whether they choose to or not is up to t

If you use a phone without a super hi-res screen it will be much smaller.

What's your argument here? Every assembly line worker in 70s Detroit was unionized.

Who are these "so many developers" you've referenced a dozen times? You've been spending too much time on internet forums listening to rants of the vocal minority. Truth is that most developers are happy and don't n

So programmers across the country should unionize because one guy has an opinion?

What makes you think engineers are against these practices?

Interesting that around the same time both Facebook and Snapchat are turning their focus away from sponsored content and focusing on friends.

Would be a pretty big slap in the face for all other "contestants" if it turns out that Amazon intended to move to Atlanta all along and this whole thing was only for publicity and leverage.
