Submission + - MIT Creates Algorithm That Speeds Up Page Load Time by 34% (softpedia.com)

An anonymous reader writes: MIT researchers created an algorithm that analyzes Web pages and creates dependency graphs for all network resources that need to be loaded (CSS, JS, images, etc.). The algorithm, called Polaris, will be presented this week a the Usenix conference, and is said to be able to cut down page load times by 34%, on average. The larger and more resources, the better the algorithm's efficiency gets, which should be useful on today's JS-heavy sites.

American workers get zero vacation days when they start a new position unless they were smart enough to negotiate a week or two during the hiring process. Even so, with these high pressure 60+ hour/week jobs, they frown on workers who dare to take their accrued vacation times. Some of these workers would rather lose their vacation time then appear to be "slackers" to their managers. In contrast workers in certain other countries are given a boatload of vacation from day one.
