I had to step away from using electron because I encountered segfaults like `Received signal 11 SEGV_MAPERR 000000000060` just on visiting cnn.com and clicking one of their nav links (without much going on otherwise, which I found kinda crazy).

Electron also only recently added support for PDFs, and it's still a little buggy. I was able to get around most of these with pdf.js.

I ended up using a combination of chrome extension for injecting stuff into webpage + rpc to a local node.js server running inside an electron app (for convenience). I only made this for personal use, so I'm ok with <arbitrary_caveat>s.

For example, it works well with Core_kernel [2] and Async_kernel [3] to provide high-level functionality that is cross compatible between Unix applications and browser applications.

EDIT: some research later indicates that it's possible allowing a user to sign up outside the app (and outside a webview initiated by the app) skirts around the policy [1], since the user can return to the app and log in, then use their account for payments.

Keep up the great work at https://www.seznam.cz/ ! Lots of interesting search features, maps, etc.

> Every country has a mammoth collection of valid results for your query.

Having seen the corpus of content available from each language, this is categorically false. Consider Wikipedia, which is a fairly ubiquitous information source on the web that provides answers to tons of searches. English documents: 5.4M, Romanian documents: 376k.

Perhaps the solution to the OP's woes is more tools for filtering. This post conflates the ideas between language and country. Search typically returns to you results and search features that are in the query language. Today's solution where filtering is done through query refinement and query operators seems to cover a lot of use cases already.

Further, by having an integrated product, ML models can learn behaviors specific to certain locales where those behaviors differ from region to region, and balance with more universal behaviors that apply to more than one region.

Just pointing out that there are other reasons to leave aside from rational economic thought about this individual's expected ability to produce higher output elsewhere. They may dislike the team, pivoted idea, or leadership decisions. But they may also want to keep hold of the equity in case it gets big (or they can sell it or a liquidity event occurs).

If the above statement is true, what happens to the remaining 4% of the energy in the uranium? Is it just not effective to have it in the molten salt, so the entire batch is replaced? Or does this happen 'on the fly' so to speak?

Talking to alumni, I've always heard this is because of the ability to learn how to communicate here, but I think the difficult course load contributes a lot to character throughout 4 years here. I'd be interested to hear how this compares to other institutions.

The additional stats on the Brookings.edu page [1] were interesting as well.

The product looks very polished and I hope to see it grow and develop a large community. That would make it a real WP competitor since the main reason WP is so powerful now is because of all the themes, documentation, and plugins.

It's my understanding that you just need 2x (two points in a sine wave) to construct a unique wave. If you're getting a sawtooth, it means that you're sampling a wave that is composed of very high frequencies, and you're accurately sampling it, so a DAC can reconstruct it uniquely.

As a side note: I'm in college now and looking to propose an independent study on compression. Any suggested readings or algorithms I should look into?
