What scares me is that they do OS wide change based of wording "This can make", "And since we suspect" and "In all likelyhood" instead of doing actual tests. I know that open systems doesn't have required workforce, but doing changes based on subjective reasoning is slippery slope.

You'll just learn things, but it won't scale at all. One of many reasons is that it's very specific people (it may not even be Your target users).

Isn't this whole idea flawed? How is dynamic JS content update easier for browser than static HTML5 content? Overall amount of CPU time and RAM used will be larger so if anything it's not faster or lighter. Also turning off JS for site using this lib makes it unusable.

(This is of course my opinion, not scientific fact) The biggest argument for EA is that proper implementation does not get stuck in local minimum. GD and SGD have that tendency, if not in one spot then probably looping between many. Problem with EA by the other hand is that its mathematical model is based on probability which is quite tricky to operate on even for above-average programmer.

Resource management tool was made before git when SVN was a thing so im more than sure that it doesn't exist anymore.
That neural net thing may still be alive, but buried deep on my workstation. I'll look for it and publish it on git eventualy.
There is also particle swarm optimization lib i made for it here:

I made some resource management tools that helped me in MMORPG's (ex EVE, WOW) and they had potential for real-life usage. There was also a episode in my life where i tried to predict random using simple neural nets in roulette, lottery and some stock markets. Fun thing to do but time-consuming.

There is no option to pay them to not see the ads.
There is no option to pay them so they don't gather information about You.
THEY OWN YOU.
Even if Facebook gets out of business, other will do it. Your phone, your TV, watch, fucking juicer whatever connected to internet is collecting information.
THERE IS NO WAY TO OPT-OUT.
It may sound creepy and disconnected from reality, but in the core that's exactly what it is. You may not like it, You can disagree, but it happens anyway.

He's not doing shit. Year after year he's making the same comment over privacy. What is Facebook suppose to do? Stop collecting data? Ridiculous its the core business model of every branch of that disgusting data leech. It's not about the Cambridge Analytica or russian manipulation campaign. It's about our basic right to privacy, that is constantly violated every time You look at that page or any other connected to it.

It's not too far. Maybe You don't feel effects of antisocial media, but i do. Few years ago if friends wanted to go swimming. They were calling each other, there was human interaction. Now it's event on facebook. If You dont have favebook you're basically not a friend anymore, because noone is going to call You and invite. This is the effect of social media on our civilisation. It's like in '60 doctors were recommending smoking as stress reliever and everyone agreed until they knew better.
