Thereâ(TM)s a larger issue: Retail spending (not adjusted for inflation) has grown on average 2.4% per year in the US over the past five years. Over the same period, digital advertising nearly doubled to $72.5 billion in 2016. Clearly, even digital advertising â" despite the lure of Facebook and the like â" cannot induce consumers overall to spend more and increase the size of the overall pie for advertisers. It can only, at best, divide up the pie differently
People only have so much money to spend. Advertising can't make more of it. All it can do is possibly get it to spend on your brand rather than another. There's nothing special about online there. Advertising is mostly a drag on the economy, it only actually provides value when it informs people of goods/service they otherwise wouldn't have known about. The vast majority of ad spending, especially by major established brands, doesn't do that.
Amazon was more than 50% C++ when I worked there. And those services tended to be more reliable. But at any rate, I said the NAME of an enterprise framework shouldn't include Java, which a 2nd grade reading comprehension would have told you. That name has only ever caused confusion.
You can't install gapps legally on AOSP. Google requires a license for them, and only licenses them to OEMs that agree to a large number of provisions (and pays them). THey're widely available, but you are pirating them.
If you're professors taught you that, they were incompetent.
Here I have the data in CSV format. Here I have the data encoded in the low order bit if the 498th pixel of images who's filenames are found by taking the 3rd letter of every word in the Lord of the Rings. They have the same data. But you'd be an idiot to use the second one. You're an idiot if you waste your time screen scraping websites, its not a format meant for processing of data, there's no regularity to it and the format can and will change anytime some designer gets a cool idea. If you do this, you're incompetent.
Anything without Java in the name, to decrease the level of confusion. Like every other framework in the world. It was an idiotic decision driven by morons and marketers.
Its a framework on top of the Java language. It should have been called something else to prevent confusion, but Sun wanted to make sure the word Java was plastered everywhere.
THat's because the idea of pulling data out of HTML is a horrible idea. Provide a real API. If the site doesn't, you should consider paying for access to their data in a sane way rather than writing a fragile algorithm to screen scrape it.
I'm not saying there aren't a few places with idiots in charge. But in 17 years in the industry, I've never seen anyone actually denied a job due to age or appearance. And as one of the fast skins myself, it isn't hurt my odds of getting a job at all (I get offers out of 90 percent of my in person interviews). You're working at the exceptions, not the general rule.
The problem is the internet can do anything that radio can. Radio has only a few advantages:
1)Blankets more of the US than cellular, and works on any radio device (no network issues) 2)Easier set up for less technical users (not too many people can't use a radio tuner). 3)No direct cost to user (data costs money for many).
As time goes on, 1-3 become less of an issue, which leaves radio in the dust. There might still be stations, but they'll broadcast online.
Yeah- you're talking about things that are 1 error in 20. If that. The fact that you actually believe the bullshit you're spouting scares the shit out of me- I truly hope I don't use anything you've ever worked on.
Haskell is a language where once you get your program to run at all it usually runs correctly.
That's a dangerous way to even think. Very few bugs are actually programming mistakes- the vast majority, and the harder to fix are design mistakes. Just because it compiles doesn't mean its anywhere close to right.
There is something special about gold though- it can't be created out of thin air. Its limited. So is fiat currency from a government- they don't just print an extra trillion to cover their debts, because if the supply goes up, it inflates and they know this. The same is not true for cryptocurrency- there is nobody in charge and capable of preventing runaway printing, and there's an advantage to doing so (even if that advantage comes at the cost of devaluing the original currency). So the GP is right- expect a lot more of these.
50 trillion pages would be more than 5000 pages per person per year. Most of us won't hit that lifetime. My yearly total might hit 20 this year. I don't buy that being even remotely real.
A high school student working at a below living wage is doing a job that could be done by an adult at a living wage. Same for every other example. By paying these people less, you give the companies an incentive to use them instead, reducing the job pool for adults and driving down wages for everyone.
If the job isn't important enough for you to pay them a living wage for, then the job isn't important enough to society for it to be done.
Its a matter of what you're looking to optimize for. Most of us hate shopping, and don't actually need the item immediately. Shopping takes time, effort, expense (gas and wear/tear on a car, or bus fare). Online shopping takes a shipping fee. I'd far rather pay 4 bucks cash than an hour of time.
Hell don't forget the Taste of Chicago every July, that draws in almost 2 million over 5 days. There's absolutely 20K people there on the network at the same time. Or the 225K who went to the nfl draft. THis was an event that needs planning, but Chicago puts on 2 orders of magnitude bigger events multiple times a year.
Because the age and culture it was written in were different. In Europe 30 years ago, liberal meant anti-government (Margaret Thatcher called Reagan "the great liberal of our time"). Conservative meant actually conserving current society. As opposed to US now where conservative means libertarian financials with theocratic social laws, and liberal means a regulated economy with safety net and permissive social laws.
Working with the IRS right now to fix a billing problem (two entities reported the same income 2 years ago). The IRS process is much cleaner and more straight forward. They also sent me a letter clearly outlining exactly what they were charging me for, why they thought I underpaid, and what all the changes to my original documentation were. My cable company just randomly changes my bill every few months and even they don't know the reason.
Yeah, I trust government more every fucking time, and I've never seen a time it was wrong. Its the whole not having a profit motive thing.
Yup, people love 3D effect. That's why 3D TVs did amazing. That's why current VR rigs are jumping off the shelves.
Oh wait- 3D TVs did so poorly that every manufacturer is discontinuing them, and this is an article about VR failing to sell. The market is saying nobody wants 3D.

Look at sales numbers. The world prefers Android.

Their customers are the lenders. Nobody pays or asks to be in a credit reporters database. And the lenders have no reason to give a shit about this.

Fix your definition of suitable. Anything smaller than a Pixel XL is too small to be usable.
Slack and GitHub desktop use it? That alone is reason enough to pick something else.

If you prototype on something with that much more power, you run a real risk of building a prototype that can never be run on real hardware.
