Since they're calling it "imgur for websites", I'm guessing they intend for you to put pertinent stuff up there and link to it from high-traffic sites like this or reddit.

If they provided an API, it would be cool for barebones notifications from automated systems too.
Basically, OpenID Connect is for federated authentication, and OAuth2 is for delegated authorization. I like Vitorrio's explanation: http://www.cloudidentity.com/blog/2013/01/02/oauth-2-0-and-s...

That article used the word "expensive" many times, but I really have no idea what that translates to. What could be more expensive than losing a few hundred lives and an aircraft?

Does the tech used in PLBs such as the spot messenger not work over the ocean?
As I written at all it is good to test it on real device. But if you just want to learn emulator is enough!
eh, I'll take the bait.

Whether you're using 960gs or whatever it may be, you still need to be considerate of position and "write css for layout".

If you find yourself always using grid layouts, not just as guides but as the way to lay out everything, then you will soon find yourself caged inside that grid.
That is, in fact, the exact opposite of how the banks operate. You are limited to $50 in liability for any fraudulent transaction in your account that you report in a timely fashion, guaranteed by law (in the US at least), and every bank I am aware of waives the $50 for marketing purposes.

Essentially all financial risk for credit card transactions is borne by the merchants. (Which is one reason why the banks don't seem to do much about fraud -- why should they inconvenience their customers to protect someone off of the balance sheet who doesn't get a choice to not use their bank?)
What happens if I book a flight at a badly infected internet cafe computer in Chiang Mai and a key logger reads my password

Does VbV make this any worse? It's very difficult to protect against (other than "never use untrusted computers").
I've found the pomodoro technique and while GTD gets all the headlines I thought HN might want to know a bit more about something different.

I've definitely found that I procrastinate less using the pomodoro technique (I'm writing this between pomodoros now) - or perhaps it's just that my procrastination is now better organised.

Has anyone here combined pomodoro and GTD? What were the results like?

If you use neither, but have a system that works for you, what is it?
The problem is, you spend time rewriting during your session.

Let me help.

Everything you write is garbage. Everything I write is garbage. Everything Robert Jordan wrote was garbage. Everything Stephen King writes is garbage.

Writers write garbage.

However, the good writers are the ones that can take that garbage, and turn it into something nice. However, you can't do that while you are writing.

"plus I am determined not to fall into the typical genre of fantasy writing"

Ignore this. Just write. You can do this during your rewrite. For now, just get the story finished. Getting a story finished is worth more than twenty rewrites of chapter 1.
In one sense, I do agree that this is an example of a market working perfectly. Algorithmic traders are exploiting an arbitrage opportunity between mainstream industry practice and cutting edge technical ability, and just like theory would suggest, they're making bank from it.

I think this is all there is to be said. Your trading has a pattern that makes them money. The algorithmic traders are going to use that information advantage to make money. That's the idea of the market; trying to extract as much value from securities as possible.

Even if you impose arbitrary trading limits, the big banks are still going to find a way to make money off of you.
It's not really rate of change... a better statement of this is that there exist some set ups in which a hotter sample of water will freeze faster than a cooler one, because more complex stuff goes on than simply "temperature--". It's not a general rule, and it doesn't rely on any kind of temperature-drop momentum.

I know your link doesn't exactly say that it does, but the summary felt kind of misleading.
i suppose the issue i was trying to convey is that i wasn't giving up, i was never aware that i had something to give up on. never thought of the thing as a useful tool for me and a few others, since everyone i showed it to thought it was neat, but i was the only one who ever actually used it.
Have you tried the new Ubuntu One Music store? It's not bad to start with and is rapidly improving. Plus offers cool features like cloud storage of your music collection (ultra-portable, take your music wherever you go).
Cheating is wrong - I don't see any justification otherwise. With that said, the NCLB and standardized tests are destroying school - the only focus now is to learn to answer those multiple choice questions at the end of the year.

In Norfolk (one of the cities in the NYT article), the 'SOL' annual standardized test is a sole determining factor in pupil promotion. If you come out of 4th grade with a 100% average, but you fail your SOL for whatever reason (you're nervous and didn't do well, you were sick that day, etc.) - YOU FAIL 4TH GRADE. That seems ridiculous.
I am more inclined to question the ethics of the Pentagon than those of Wikileaks.
How did you (yummyfajitas too) find these funds? I'd love to find a small algo shop but don't know where to start looking.
I started that article feeling very cynical. "He's dying of cancer, and his last work is to write an investment book?"

Then I read the whole story. He's trying to leave something behind that will improve people's lives by giving them more control over one of the most important things in their lives - their finances.

I was genuinely moved.
No new information in the article, I wonder why so many newspapers keep rehashing this 'story'.
Love this move. I, like many here, am feeling this squeeze after being terminated from a startup in the 1B club. I need to decide to exercise or not. I don't have the cash for the taxes.

Does anyone who has found buyers for their private stock without the company's blessing care to post about their experience? Any recommendations for brokers or investment groups that engage in such transactions but aren't predatory? What snags did you run into and how long did the process take?
What don't you understand? Patriotism was the path of committing atrocious acts, so he did "unpatriotic" things in the eyes of those in power, who were manipulating patriotism to align it with their terrible actions.
lmfao! "So, it came down to one thing, I let my startup fail, or I cut my dick off. To me, the answer was obvious"

This was just what I needed to break the stress of my day.
So because someone gives bad advice or has a bad understanding on a technology, you should not use it? Seems a little dramatic, don't you think?

JWTs, like most things, work perfectly fine if implemented properly and you understand what you're doing.
That's incorrect, at least in the United States.

Nowhere in the United States of America are 'citations' sent by - usually private - speed/red light cameras considered criminal offenses.

Know why? They barely stand the requirements for civil infractions in most areas. Typically these 'tickets' are implemented as backwards preconditions-to-vehicle-registration.

----

Actively jamming radar is a crime and could possibly net you trouble. Light? IR? No such 'unlawful interference' law exists at the federal level. You might be violating a state statute, but that's the extent of it.

Interfering with a civilly-implemented speed/red light camera via use of plate-obscuring equipment on your vehicle might be a state-level offense but it wouldn't be for long if challenged.
Your statement is incorrect. HTTP/2 essentially sends HTTP requests/responses through a multiplex channel. The semantics is nearly identical to HTTP/1.1. SPDY has approved it in real world for several years, and many major companies adopted SPDY long time ago (like Amazon Kindle).

HTTP/1.1 is nowhere near simple or elegant. The current spec has 6 RFCs, and a real world implementation is totally non-trivial. RFC1945 is HTTP/1.0, which nobody uses it.

Unless someone proposes an acceptable better solution (Microsoft tried), the world needs to decide on something and move on.
There's just something dreadful about having your decision making so directly influenced. It's sort of a "why are you trying to push this thing on me? Is it not good enough to stand on its own merit?

I have a sneaky suspicion that the same is true for these popups you see all over the internet. I have a basic rule: If there is a popup, I just close the tab. I don't care how good the content is. It can't be that good if the webmaster needs to catch my attention like a needy girlfriend by flashing stuff in my eyes. Close and gone.

I wonder if I'm in such a minority such that it doesn't matter, or if this is intentional segmentation or just plain stupidity on the side of webmasters.
Exactly because "they can't run simulations instead of their experiments" you can't simulate an atom and thus a brain.
Thanks for the laugh. I recall thinking when watching an aikido lesson: okay the teacher (who had 20+ years of aikido and of other martial arts) could use his aikido knowledge in a fight, the other(1) definitely not! And it could even be dangerous if they believed that they could use their aikido knowledge to fight, not that this is unique to aikido..

You'd be surprised what chinese smart phone repair shops in Shenzen can do with tiny parts. Soldering Macbook BGA parts will be trivial in comparison. I don't think there is a western equivalent to this though.
Potential co-working space for early stage startups?
Meetings are smooth for me on Teams now after months of struggling but I still get near 100% CPU usage and my Macboook can't stay in a call for more than around an hour on battery. The UI is a confusing mess with too many things integrated into it. "Keep It Simple Stupid" needs to be more ingrained into Microsoft software. I do like the ability to raise hands and also the "meeting is ending in x minutes" notification however.

I would also consider joining a company in the future that doesn't use teams as a form of communication.
This title is awful, there's really no way for me to read it as accepting payment, instead of the ubiquitous paying that way.
I have the somewhat contradictory wishes, that good people should be able to hide from crooked cops, but crooked people should not be able to hide from good cops. Making it somewhat difficult, but not impossible to catch criminals seems to strike a balance.
Excellent post!

I have a question: is it possible to write scripts to do the above automatically? Or does it have to be a manual process?

Few people understand the ecosystem thoroughly (I admit that I do not), so few people can implement the manual process properly. One mistake equals 0 privacy.

Also, would they be allowed to use renVM since everyone knew that these accounts contained bad bitcoin?
It means the BTC will re-enter market eventually , so not good for longs.
Then why not keep the CEO, and replace the CFO?

CEO needs to provide vision based on the financial projection from the CFO.
> "F# has been more successful"

F# was built to be successful rather than pure. The Early History of F# writeup[1] talks about Don Syme wanting to get strongly typed functional programming "delivered in such a way that it could be adopted by large numbers of programmers", and SML.NET which was being developed at the time was not looking like it would do that. He then worked with someone to port Haskell to .NET and got it running, but with input from Simon Peyton-Jones decided on a different direction. Then went towards OCaml and whether it could run on either JVM or .NET and had this exchange:

> "OCaml already shares a platform with C (at least with the native−code compiler), so all the C libraries are already available... Yet it can still be a lot of effort to link with a C library.[...] There's hard work to be done to realise this vision, but in principle a clean interop story sure beats the endless rehashing of other people's code in language X as a library in language Y. Myself and others involved in the Project 7 are working on one approach to achieve this interop, i.e. compiling languages directly to .NET MS−IL, in the style of MLj, often adding extensions to the language in order to improve the interop. We are also working on improving the .NET infrastructure, proposing support for features such as parametric polymorphism in MS−IL..."

That is, Don Syme was not focused on the most pure ideological code first, he wanted something a large number of programmers could use, and adapting the language and tooling for that goal. F# became a thing supported by Microsoft, by Visual Studio, interops with C# libraries, and C# being able to use libraries written in F#, with very low friction as they share the same runtime, garbage collector, basic type library, exception system, etc. Quoting from the PDF again:

> "As an aside, I think it would be an interesting question to say "OK, let's take it for granted that the end purpose of our language is to produce components whose interface is expressed in terms of the Java or .NET type systems, but which retains as many of the features and conceptual simplicity of OCaml and ML as possible." I'm not sure exactly what you'd end up with, but whatever it was it could be the language to take over from C\# and/or Java (if that's what you're interested in...) But without really taking Java/.NET component building seriously right from the start I feel you're always just going to end up with a bit of a hack − an interesting, usable hack perhaps, but not a really good language"

F# is a bit awkward, not perfectly pure, has to cope with .NET nulls and C# being the big force for the direction of.NET and so on. 20 years later, well who knows but in the StackOverflow survey of 2018 F# is 9th "most loved language" and OCaml is 25th.

That sucks. I wouldn't have guessed that the UK were worried about people leaving the largest economy in the world to live in England!

I think to play the VWP game, you need to have weighty social and economic ties to your home country. A full time job is good. Luckily my business has deep roots in the UK so I think I should be ok.
I think though we are moving away from the homepage though, I prefer how chrome displays the 8 most visited pages upon opening.
Tweets are often valuable due to their up-to-date quality, something that would be lost in a priority-filtered inbox.
After being so upset with his cheating class, why does the professor offer a large time period to re-take the test? It seems like he is baiting the students to cheat again. Can't he set it during a normal class period where everyone takes it at once?
The biggest problem for me with GAE is cost. Currently I'm paying around $150 per week for around 50k daily active users (~6 million requests per day).

I'm almost sure, that i can run the same amount of traffic from $100/month dedicated server.
Is there a way to induce this feeling without the aid of psychedelics or breathwork?

Swipe {right|left} is now part of our Lexicon.
It's almost as if to accumulate the wealth to afford a musical instrument made of exotic ivory parts (with no effect on sound) requires a certain lack of ethics in the first place.
I hope you excuse me for a shameless plug, but it seems like a relevant enough thread to share my podcast about Emacs: https://emacscast.org/

While it might seem strange to discuss a text editor in the audio format, I've been getting positive feedback on this project as I try to talk more about underlying philosophy and mindset, not specific details or settings.
They are saying the patty is 0% beef ingredients, which is factually correct.

I don't think that they were intending to be misleading, and they never attempted to even say the word vegan or vegetarian.

Even the article starts off with the premise that the intended market are vegans and vegetarians, which is presumptuous.. there's a whole class of people that just want to cut down on their meat consumption (myself included).

This whole thing just seems like more of the holier-than-thou / all-or-nothing approach taken by many of the vegan crowd that end up doing more harm than good for their cause.

This seems like a misunderstanding in advertising that's easily resolved, not a "shut it all down" sort of thing.
I've spent three years working on/off on a language. It isn't ready for prime time yet, but I'm beginning to think about the editor side of things because I can now write significant sized programs in it.

But I can understand not wanting to.

I need to go learn an API, and learn how to express the grammar of my language in a new way because I probably can't just reuse the highly tuned recursive descent parser that's already part of the language:

Parts of my language aren't well expressed by some of the ways an LSP is expected to work, stuff inside blocks is only verified as valid, not parsed to check their types or construction. So even a "jump to definition" or "this is clearly an error" is going to involve a lot more work than the interpreter actually does.

Autocomplete itself could be a huge headache due to the highly dynamic nature of the language (variable names can be as dynamically created), without actually running the program, guessing what's inside the environment is going to be incomplete.

In short - editor support is either going to be half-assed (why do it), or more work than writing the language was (tedious).
Google Sheets is not a table, which is what the discussion is about.

Edit: It also is not exactly the poster child of good UX and accessibility (or even performance, for that matter), so I'm not sure it's the best example.

I don't think it's that hard to do C-a, C-k then C-y as many times as you want.

If you want to bind it to a key you could record that as a macro for e.g., but I find that sequence is simple enough that I don't think hard about it
> My interest in it at the moment is money related

Moving from where you are now to a more senior position is most likely both an easier and a more profitable option for you. ML doesn't necessarily equal higher pay. And the roles that do come with significantly higher pay require years of math and statistics. Overall, the money is a really bad reason to get into a completely new field, especially this one.

The good thing is that you don't have to immediately go all in - you can read, learn and experiment and reevaluate your thoughts on the field once you have a bit more experience in it.
Whilst I'm against negative campaigning, rms has been and still is the consciousness of free software. We would be in a very bad place if not for him. yeah sometimes he's a dick, but then we all are.
Musk Tweeted to use Signal, so it might be getting a major spike in downloads.
While I actually agree that they are "trying their best" (though I feel like "their best" isn't that great ;P), I feel like they have also--on purpose--built something that requires super human levels of "trying" to get right... content recommendation is something that, even at that scale, should have ramifications attached to it, even if it means people don't build them (as the world would probably be better off without them anyway, and it ain't like causing harm at a larger scale is somehow less harmful than doing it on a smaller scale). Until such point, I am at least glad they have discovered a new source of truth: https://www.theonion.com/mark-zuckerberg-announces-all-of-fa...
To be honest, this is a very pointless poll. I barely heard about Signal and never even used it. Discord is the thing kids use for gaming.

Whatsapp became a standard non-carrier app to communicate globally. People do not even know any of these apps. Removing whatsapp from the phone means disconnecting from many remote friends and family members.
People don't realize that as a contractor, you can write off the room you're using for your office. As a remote employee you cannot. For people living in high rent areas, that's significant.
This is from the aero-astro department, not EECS. Their timetable is different; what's state of the art is both way behind and incredibly advanced compared to other industries.

(I took 16.001/16002 though I was never a course 16 major; learned a ton of interesting stuff but probably the most useful thing I learned was that different fields have utterly different Weltanschauungen)
Interesting is the Product Management market pretty active? What's kind of roles are on offer?
If you happen to be using Windows, Narrator has a well-written tutorial (no, I didn't write it) that goes into the most common shortcuts, and you can get a complete list with Narrator+F1 (the "Narrator" key is either Caps Lock or Insert). I believe VoiceOver on Mac also has a tutorial.
ECC ("it") doesn't need to be implemented in both CPU and RAM.
I work for a small company (less than 10 employees) that follows a very similar working process. No deadlines, one (very short) weekly meeting. We don't try to stay competitive with similar products. That's impossible with VC funding flooding the market. What we do instead is focus on making our current customers happy. Everyone is involved in support. We follow up with customers when we do launch features they requested, even if that's years later. It seems to be working well. It's not going to be hockey stick growth, but "freedom" for us (the employees) is well preserved.
For your example's sake, if the work for one job is just a tenth, then it means that for a 5 men job, a manager would need to hire 50 people. The manager would be overwhelmed and add cost to the company by asking for a colleague. It's not easy to manage 50 people. But maybe the manager wants to diversify himself, so instead of 2 manager for 50 people, you'll have... 20 managers for 50 people. You need a managers' manager. Where does it end? :)
Yes, the NPR article is alarmist, verging on irresponsible.

A few facts, with sources:

- The water coming out of Hetchy Hetchy is still well within the 'usable' range [1]

- The total loss of power is 293 MW (Holm and Kirkwood), which is a tiny percentage of the power generated in CA [1,2]

- The SF PUC is already dealing with the loss of those 293 MW: San Francisco is making up the difference in power generation by accessing power in an existing power bank and purchasing power on the open market. [1]

- PG&E is reporting no problems in their network (at 10:20 PT) [3]

Keep calm, carry on. Perhaps take it as an opportunity to turn of the lights you're not using, like you should every day ;)

Yup, it's been almost two months since I've originally messaged support about being unable to access my account. They said they would schedule a security interview, then never followed through.

I don't know how it's legal for a company to lock your account w/ funds with no explanation for this long.
I've tried a lot of "new tab" replacements but I always go back to the default one. Some minor enhancement would be fitting, for me at least, while not removing the functionality that I use.
