It's very much the same emulator but we're exposing a subset of functionality via WASM, in this case it wasn't handling grapheme codepoints correctly. It should be fixed on main (or @next).

Not being able to play Youtube in the background on your phone is unfortunately one of the main appeals of Premium. There's a lot of good mixes, concerts, etc that I play for the audio while doing something else that I can't do without Premium unless I wanted to leave my phone unlocked (and pray I don't pocket click a link).

I'm not sure the EPA and FDA are the best examples you could've picked...

Under "Changing Code":

>It might seem like chaos, but it is not. It is just fluid synchronization, or to put differently: eventual consistency system.

Can anyone explain this? The example he used wasn't fleshed out enough for me to understand how this system wouldn't be chaos

This is interesting. Or is this just a "joke" (albeit dark) using an alternative definition of "worst"

As niche as it might be, sounds like another point in favor of EVs no?

Except when they don't, as described by the link in the parent comment

25 grams of sugar is less than a bottle of gatorade...Most kids aren't even close to this target

I hate to be that guy, but the amount of havoc commercial flying cars could create is concerning. If these things become commonplace, imagine the destruction someone could wreak. I don't think fear should ever be a good reason to deter progress, but it is something to think about if we want to go this route

Don't know if it's relevant but Tesla admitted that only 2 individuals on the board didn't also have ties to Solar City, so hearing that shareholders are enthusiastic about the merge wouldn't be surprising I wouldn't think

I've not heard that Mars had life at some point in its history. In fact I've not heard mention of any planets hosting life in their past, do you have some sources that you can point me to?

You argue under the presumption that the prostitute is there against their will. Assuming prostitution is made legal and thus brothels are allowed to operate under government regulations there shouldn't be any emotional or physical trauma. Prostitutes would become prostitutes because they would want to or because circumstances determined that that was the best way for them to make a living. Pregnancy wouldn't be an issue either. You know people become porn stars because they want to right? How is being a prostitute in a regulated industry any different?

Yeah I thought that comparison was a little suspect

This is unrelated but it would be nice if this site offered the ability to minimize sub-threads. I was genuinely curious about people's opinions as to how best legalize drugs in a responsible fashion. Instead I have to scroll through an obnoxious amount of comments bemoaning the short falls of the government long enough to lose interest.

If someone wouldn't mind explaining, what could the motive possibly be for the Chinese government to be doing this?

This is really cool from a first glance. I definitely think one needs to take this sort of approach when learning a new technology. Despite having enthusiasm about a new field of software development, it's far too easy to abandon any attempts education oneself due to the dryness of the material.

Agreed but also easier said than done

I would gladly move to 10 hour days for four days. Hell I'd do 12 hours for 3 days

It's also important due to it helping one understand everything that's going on under the hood in whatever high level language one's using

A better title would be, "Why can't you find a job you _want_ with a ___________ computer science PhD?"

You can most certainly find a programming job with a PhD. They're literally everywhere

I really, really want to get into Haskell and functional programming in general, but I have no idea what sort of project to build with it. Anyone have any good suggestion?

C'mon now, this isn't a political article, let's not mire the discussion in politics irrelevant to the link

Assuming that it doesn't taste as bad as it sounds, it's likely that this will just end being a quick meal replacement here and there. I.e. you're pulling a long night at work and you _could_ order pizza but that's unhealthy so you whip out a Soylent shake.

It's certainly not a revolution by any means

As awesome as it is to see Google kick the regional monopolies into upgrading, it's really a lack of competition that's stifling both modern connection speeds and reasonable prices. Prices for the ridiculously named "Gigapower" are undoubtedly going to go increase repeatedly over time if Fiber backs out since it has achieved what it wants. Competition would have the opposite effect.

Or better yet, why not treat ISPs as utilities. Could anyone offer insight as to why internet in this day and age is not regulated like electricity or other utilities?

This should become at category up there next to "jobs" "submit" etc

If you don't believe every country in the world doesn't try to bug any country they have an investment in, rather it be ally or enemy, you're naive. I can't believe it even came as surprise that US bugged its allies, you don't believe our allies do the same thing, or at least try to, to us?
