melted
No user record in our sample, but melted has activity below (stories or comments). Likely we have partial data — the full bulk-load will fill profiles in.

Even just reverse proxy in front (written in C++, naturally) would have probably saved the situation.
Insane web traffic doesn't actually cost you much. Au contraire, my friend, it brings in the dough. What costs you money is the long tail, those deep, obscure searches which you have to answer to be perceived a…
Microsoft spends over $1B/yr on maintaining and improving Bing. So yeah, search does cost a fortune if you want to do it reasonably well without relying on others for results. Not only do you have to crawl the web (with…
Looks like my information is either out of date or was incorrect all along. Bing seems to be the primary source. They seem to also have a crawler now, though it's not clear how much it really covers. Very cool. Slow and…
You seem to have forgotten to plug your product.
Google is one of DDGs backends, and the highest quality one at that. DDG does not have its own crawlers or index. Nor could it: those things cost hundreds of millions of dollars per year to run and maintain. [Edit:…
And that's exactly my point. It doesn't have to be this way.
They should just switch to showing nothing but ads in the first page of results and be done with it. I'm sure they will find a way to justify how this is "good for the users", but for me, with my widescreen laptop, the…
At one point Microsoft had an option to buy Google for peanuts. Ballmer declined because he didn't see how it'd ever make money.
DDG exists because Google lets it exist. It's not really a full blown search engine.
Which, nevertheless, means that people aren't really ruling, and therefore it's not what one could legitimately call "people's rule". Their elected "representatives" (which, let me remind you, don't give a shit about…
Prediction: within 2 years Apple will have iPhone 7s, on which no one can bypass the encryption no matter what. All they'd have to do is put secure enclave software into ROM burned at the factory, and make it…
I'd rather they worked on improving IDE support for Clang and LLVM when it comes to "unmanaged" languages, as well as moved some of those compiler and optimization engineers to improving LLVM. LLVM still lags a bit…
Tried it a while back. Reverted to just using web UI. Not quite there yet.
Why "missing" though? On Windows 10, Mail is quite nice. On OSX there's Airmail. On Linux there's bupkis, but that's really not what Linux is for.
Well, it's more complicated than that though, economic considerations-wise. You can treat Hepatitis C now (and it's the rare case where the drug actually cures something like this with high probability), or you can…
Probably depends on the cost of medication to begin with. My HBP medication is like 25 cents a pill even without insurance. I figure it can't really go much lower than that given that all those folks at the pharmacy…
Oh I'm well aware of that. I'm also very aware that: 0. There's no direct vote on laws. This alone makes the US not a democracy, but a republic at best. 1. There's no direct vote for president and vice president. 2.…
You need to read "People's History of the US" by Howard Zinn. There never was a democracy here. The only times when people had the actual power was during the many armed insurrections, most of which were simply…
Democracy is not really what we have though. We the people really don't have much say in what's going on.
You don't have to split, though. You can put all your code in the header file. Your compile times will suck mightily, but you can do it, if managing headers is such a burden.
On a more serious note, just take the Google coding style and strike out everything it says about exceptions. Boom! A relatively painless C++. You don't have to use every trick in the book.
Site is clearly not served with C++. :-)
No, I'm implying that one way or another developers need to be paid for what they do if you want them to continue to write apps. I pay them directly because I don't like ads. Others choose free versions of apps to pay…
