Since I created an account for nytimes.com in 2007 (I needed access to the complete archive for a project and paid $7.95 for it) I received the amazing amount of two e-mails, one confirming my order and one confirming the cancellation of the subscription after the project was finished.

In the following years I was never again asked to pay for any article I wanted to read and I never again received an e-mail. I really wouldn’t worry about creating an account for nytimes.com.
> Simpler: any time you select a binary tree instead of a hash table for your lookup table because you realize you need range queries or sorted traversal, aren't you leaning on complexity theory?

Only a nominal amount. You probably only need to spend a few hours watching YouTube videos to make these sorts of decisions, or pass a phone screen. Whereas there are entire classes and textbooks that cover only complexity theory.

Software is a weird industry because the best and most famous developers tend to be the ones who make software for other developers. And those folks tend to know a ton about software engineering. But the actual folks using those tools don't need to know all that much, and they're generally the ones making all the money.
Having copious free time has always been a privileged position. The extent to which you can waste time is a direct expressino of privilege.
I believe it is the desire of many corporations to actually build a human shield between the management, who have authority to fix problems and the customers.
Indeed, the EPA has steadily increased the stringency of particulate matter (PM) standards over the years (these have an impact on car/engine design and fuel (sulphur and nitrogen content)); you can find more information here:

Of course they're going to crash if the call is simply denied or returns invalid information. The OS should simply return valid, dummy information (empty array, array with single fake contact, etc.).
Isn't public/private key encryption just for transferral of non-plaintext passwords, used later by other cyphers like AES? This article seems to suggest to use it as a method of encrypting plain text communication.
Even though computers evolved by great leaps in the past few decades I argue that the human nature has been somewhat stagnated for at least a couple thousand years.

In that light, Mussolini's quote is as precise today as it was back in the day it was first said. Sad, yet true.
I'm also not impressed with the Clojure/ClojureScript code-sharing story, which requires hacks[2] to use the same code on the client and server.

I think this is definitely a "the glass is half-empty" interpretation. I mean, let's point out that you're complaining about an environment where you can share code between a codebase running on the server and one on the client--and it isn't JavaScript. And it's not ideal? Of course it's not ideal. But you can do inter-op with Java (server-side) and JavaScript (client-), using the same syntax, and with cljx, you can do this in the same file. This is freaking awesome, even with the messy bits that come along with it, in my opinion.

A smaller community, fewer libraries and less mature tools makes it kind of a bummer from a social perspective.

As far as this point, there's less I can disagree with: the community, while small, is awesome, but there is a way to go before ClojureScript, at least, is going to have the ease of "install and get going" that you have with other platforms. Everything from testing to getting a reasonable console up and running is in a state of flux and cannot be favorably compared to JavaScript, other than the argument that ClojureScript provides a better enough programming experience to outweigh the ease-of-setup that JS provides. For me that's more than enough, but for others I can understand that it's not, yet.

But it absolutely is improving, very quickly. We really need more people to be using CLJS and hyping it (as David Nolen is doing) and putting in the time to shave the yaks that need shaving--as people like David Nolen, Kevin Lynagh (http://keminglabs.com/blog/cljs-app-designs/ as well as the aforementioned cljx), Chas Emerick (many contributions, but recently https://github.com/cemerick/austin), Mimmo Cosenza (the fantastic Modern CLJS series: https://github.com/magomimmo/modern-cljs) and many others are doing--so that we can get to that point where the advantages clearly outweigh the disadvantages. I think that time will come, but it's going to require some serious work.

But even now there are compelling reasons to use ClojureScript, including libs like core.async. I think you'd find that, with a bit of patience, there is a lot there to keep you invested in the tools and the community.

EDIT: I just want to add that cljx is not the only or oldest or simplest way to share code. Crossovers using lein-cljsbuild have provided this for a while: https://github.com/emezeske/lein-cljsbuild/blob/master/doc/C...
No, what is making the difference is the boost of cortisol and adrenaline levels caused by HF/LC diets.
Oops! I meant that Google didn't turn up anything for TeX, not Perl. The Perl stuff is indeed well known.
This alarm clock runs on a web server!
Hehe, sorry, that was silly of me.
Funny, I was going to start and end my post with similar statements. My first statement was a quote "a person is smart but people are stupid" (due to herd behavior). And I was going to end with the fact that many leaders care more about maintaining their seats than losing any lives on their watch and so are ready scare the minority who actually are not afraid of terrorism much more than they are about religions, people and ways of life they ignore (most of the author's examples are in fact evidence of this).

But I edited my post because statistically the majority of us are not afraid. We care, and definitely vote for leaders who refuse to terrorize us a la Cheney, but we know we have to adapt our way of life to minimize the risks--which can be confused with fear, but is actually the rational thing to do, since we're dealing with irrational people.

I was too succinct, but yes the majority needs to do a better job of controlling the message we send to terrorists--that I should have conceded.
Lets add an Io interpreter to the mix!

(For those who don't know: Io is very powerful, but also very slow.)

That was exactly what I thought of when reading the name. Hotpot is great, lets see how well the recommendations will be.
The most interesting region to me is what turned out to be Germany. At around 2 minutes (around 1400ad I guess)the whole region there seems to go unstable...
It's a good question, I have no idea why you are being downvoted.

Consider a person who's moral principles are based on empathy. Empathy is well known to be racist - we simply don't feel equally bad is a black person gets pricked with a needle than a white person. (Errors like this are why I believe empathy is a terrible basis for morality.)

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3108582/

http://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal....

Now consider path dependence. If you first think about a brown person being tortured, you (statistically) are more likely to accept it - you simply feel less empathy for this person. Then when you generalize to the case of a white person, you'll similarly support torture.

Conversely, if you first think about a white person being tortured and then generalize to a black person, you'll oppose it.

So it doesn't happen that belief in torture falls apart, what happens is the example you think of to start with determines that belief.
"Save them from themselves" is quite possibly the most dangerous mentality to have ever existed on the face of the Earth. The Belgians thought they were saving the Congolese from themselves. Totalitarian states thought they were saving the people from themselves. As soon as you take it upon yourself to decide what is good for someone else, you have decided to become a god with the knowledge of a man. I am quite disappointed to see such ideas supported here.
From 2006. Interesting article, not really much about it being a "Geek Drug" apart from the first couple of paragraphs about one programmer's use of it, and a little bit about the late Steve Jobs experience but it has plenty of background information.
Mostly logfiles, and other machine generated data (of which 99% can be thrown away, but that's what "big data" does for me, filter out what's important).
If the people cared about this it could be stopped, but they don't care. Hell they think it is a swell idea to jail people for offensive tweets.
The dual digit displays are probably simply encased LEDs but it would be nice if there was a way to expose the inside of those too. Aesthetically they seem out of place.
I found this very naive. Yes, engineers might be this way, designers, the "low-level" people (for a lack of better term), but the directors, the board, the money bunch - they know exactly what they're doing and how it will be bad for many, but they're going this way because it's 1. better for their product, 2. easier for them and finally 3. because "why care about some minnows?".
I'm using https://github.com/mgp25/WhatsAPI-Official. Spam is the reason WhatsApp tries to take down these unofficial API, Whatsy is more of a bot and doesn't really bother anyone.
The armour registers the strength and position of hits, which would be used to allocate points.
I sure hope this will have a rich plugin API and support non-web non-scripting languages as first class citizens. That would make it stand out from most recent editors.
On the other hand: What kind of people enjoy looking at stills of TopGun? Well, their (Paramounts Topgun's) biggest fans of course. Instead of killing this they should be realising there is value in tweeted stills of (famous) movies and they could experiment with their own twitter-stills (and behind-the-scenes and what not). People apparently want to consumne stills of your product,give it to them! (Edit: and provide the iTunes link).
Why was this "now free" removed from this subject of this submission???

That was the interesting part of this submission! :-/
I think at the core, these are different companies. FB is a social network, groupon is a deal site. The skill set to dominate these two spaces is very different.

Agreed, they have a huge distribution channel but so does for instance Target or Walmart, but groupon just doesnt align to those companies core competencies. Hence not a great fit.
>I'm sure Google could instead find an additional 10 female programmers for $100k each - thus changing the averages without having to overpay this one employee.

Eh? This is really sad - do Google really have to choose candidates that aren't the best in order to keep a particular balance of sexes. Is that company wide, department wide, etc..

I'd have thought a progressive company, like Google appear to be, would employ the best person for the job and do away with irrelevant discrimination.
LOL - They don't get a refund. They get to deduct those as business costs exactly like R&D expenditures. The argument from the *those are subsidies" camp is that they should have to capitalize them as a purchased asset (and depreciate them on the usual schedule) and not be able to deduct them in the year of expenditure, which would be like treating R&D the same as purchasing a building. As the article says, that doesn't make any sense at all. And allowing a deduction of intangible drilling costs much like all other business deductions is in no way a "subsidy."
The web is a great way to distribute native programs. Click a URL to download, then run.
Or they could donate anonymously, supporting its development without their official logo.
Manning allows folks a time-limited preview of their books (I think it's ten minutes per day?).

The gist is that tags are mutable and deletable. Local caching means that every node can disagree on what the tag resolves to, and so can the registry. What version corresponds to which tag at which location at a given time is not deterministic.

The only way out is to use fully-digested references. The digest means that there can be no mutation of what's being pointed to. It will mean the same in every configuration and on every node, no matter when the reference is resolved and no matter when the reference was created.
I tend to look at actions, and the US (in particular the current administration) bears a large part of the blame. The Iranian government is despicable, but so is the one in Saudi Arabia, yet the US has no problem supporting them. The North Korean government is much worse, but the US negotiates with them. Historically, the US has had no qualms associating with authoritarian countries. There's no intrinsic "reason" for the poor relationship, except realpolitik balance of power.
Yeah. Seems like 5g is merely ma bell wifi.
I agree with that, but I think "accident" in this particular context has the undesirable property of allowing people to weasel out of taking responsibility. Just because you didn't intend to do something, it doesn't make it not your fault if you do. But the system and culture around this is set up to try to disclaim blame, even to the point that insurance companies tell you to never ever admit you were at fault after a crash.
The article doesn't mention the number/class of CPUs in the system used for the benchmark. It claims that 'Singlepass' compilation of clang.wasm took 2s and 'Cranelift' took 9s.

Running the same benchmark myself in Linux on a 4CPU VirtualBox on a MacBook Pro, I see 11s and 42s respectively. For reference , V8/Node.js compiles the same file in 27s.

Compiled files were 339 MiB (Singlepass), 640 MiB (Cranelift) and 90 MiB (V8/Node.js).

Clang.wasm itself is 45 MiB.
If you are a good dev/student and some bank is willing to lend you 40,000$, it is far easier to join a good US university for a masters degree and then get a job in Silicon valley.

So all you are left with are people who cannot take above option.
Seems to me that Apple is caught in a cleft stick--- on the one hand, the fan-boys don't see a problem and on the other hand the rest will not be reassured by anything Apple is likely to do. As for the general public, their lack of technological discrimination is more likely to result in a chicken little 'oh privacy; the sky is falling' effect than anything else.

Yeah, you can. Usually you unscrew the laptop, remove a screw on the motherboard and you get SeaBIOS and you can install any distro you want.
I don't know what manager you use, but Password Safe allows you to set custom generation rules to each entry. This has mostly been handy because nobody agrees on what set of special characters to support.
It's excessive if your goal is _solely_ to execute a repeating AJAX request. But, if I'm understanding the attack correctly, this script is injected _in place of_ jQuery requested from Baidu's CDN. If you want the affected sites to appear normal, so the users whose browsers you are highjacking will contribute to the DDOS for the longest possible period, then you want to ensure that jQuery does indeed load.

The OP further clarifies why jQuery is injected _twice_: seems the injection is occurring only for 1% of requests. So it appears the code is looking to see if it has triggered the injection itself, and fires another request if needed.
Think of it as using the ChromeOS kernel (which suits the hardware configuration perfectly) and then running the Ubuntu userspace (which co-exists with the Chrome OS userspace).

Even if you don't use the Chrome OS userspace much, removing it won't save you enough to make it worth it.
It seems like most (all?) of these don't apply to a recent Pixel device. I'd be curious what your bitcoin count would be for a pixel 4 or 5.
The perspective I share is one that comes from a doctor that works in the ICU (not me). I am not against ventilation, but there are attendant risks when treating COVID-19 specifically.
If you define socialism as "having social programs better than the US", then the Nordic countries are socialist. If you define it as "social ownership and democratic control of the means of production" (as Wikipedia does), then the Nordic countries are not socialist, nor anything close.

I'd argue that the data shows that the first kind of socialism works reasonably well, and the second does not.
How many millions of people who never tried any drugs commited suicide?

How many people commited suicide after drinking a glass of milk, smoking a cigarette, or drinking a beer?

No doubt equally tragic stories could be told of many of them, but does it follow that milk, cigarettes, beer, or lack of drug use made them kill themselves?
From the article: "experts say that the vast majority of mosquito nets are used exactly the way they were intended". There's also good evidence that they work: http://www.givewell.org/international/technical/programs/ins.... If you don't buy that, then GiveWell's #2 charity just hands out cash to poor people in Africa. Those guys know what they're doing.
Geez. I was looking for a "free food products" database and was disappointed to find a "free, food products db" :/
"Replace gay marriage with racial segregation. What should be the social repercussions, if any, when a person advocates racial segregation?"

How about we replace gay marriage with Christian? I have found that in the same circles that want acceptance and open thinking start to sing a different tune when it comes to religion.
SSRIs are known to reduce the effects of hallucinogens.

LSD, and hallucinogens in general are extremely useful in personal growth. The novelty of 'reality' literally breaking down can be quite a thrill; and for many people it will be the first time it has ever happened to them; though it can be incredibly frightening as well.

I have been around several people on various SSRIs while they have taken mushrooms or lsd (and one on DMT); it seemed to always be a non-issue.

This is probably a great place to start if you are truly interested and want to understand the risks: https://www.erowid.org/chemicals/lsd/lsd_health3.shtml
Agree with the single people aspect, but a child whose parents are both employed is being cared by someone else. And unless the parents are well-off, that someone else is either not paid or badly paid.
>>Singapore, in keeping with its policy of transparency...<< Wow, straight face and all. Let's discuss freedom of speech, politics or any other human rights and see how transparent things remain.
It's common in Western Europe.I get 5 weeks holiday plus 8 public holidays. I sometimes don't take a day or two but will then take a day or two extra the next year..
I'd get this too, providing they really did just make a no bullshit phone with stock Android and no stupid skin like HTC and Samsung phones. I've been using Nexus phones for a number of years, but looking for alternatives now that Google has jumped on board the 'we don't know the fucking difference between a phone and a tablet' bandwagon. An extra app store in addition to (definitely not instead of) would be fine, and I'd probably use it.

But I'm not buying a Fire, obviously.
No, don't use blur. Ever.

Black it out. And I don't mean the stupid PDF trick where they draw a black box over it (but you can still copy/paste the number from underneath). I mean actually black it out. Print it out, draw on it with a marker, and scan it again if you have to make sure.

But I've seen so many blurred out numbers that I could just about figure out with my eyes, let alone a computer program that could decode it algorithmically. And yes, standard (and non-standard, i.e. Photoshop) algorithms are fairly well known and can be tested against known data. Also, people really can tell what font was used. That gives them more than enough information to decode it.

But why are you giving people information in the first place? Never, ever try to distort information you should be destroying.

That's a great point and I think if you're making a new implementation of a product like I am and you have a general idea of who your customer could potentially be just asking them could be very helpful, though it may be difficult to get a response. It's funny how this is probably one of the simplest and most obvious ways, and yet it completely eluded me until I read your post. Thanks!
I see (and it is certainly highly subjective) one large similarity between Haskell and C++: Haskell and C++ code looks similar to me aesthetically, as in indentation patterns being similar and so on, it's certainly weird :)

Also it is interesting to note, that both Haskell and C++ world is full of discussions about how to do something remarkably complex to get nice syntax for something. You don't see that in lisp world, where such problems are simply solved by macros and nobody goes into great lengths to (ab)use some random language feature to get nice syntax for his library.
But who really needs "aggregated, passive flow of opportunities to stay in touch?"

These are proxy relationships. Friends are welcome to call me, but I don't want to be involved in their lives 24/7, nor do I want the opportunity.
I had the same problem but then found Moniker do .ios. Their interface is a bit crufty but they have a good reputation. That's where coder.io is registered.
I haven't looked at the page code but it seems like there's a deliberate delay after the page loads and you start reading before the banner pops in right in your field of vision. It drives me crazy every time.
uWSGI has a powerful cache mechanism, and it's clustered.
The feedback last time was great. Especially like the "I would need X before I would consider adding it to my site" type.
I think the problem isn't the substance, or its natural/synthetic origin. The oceans can deal with oil. The issue is the abnormal concentration.

Perhaps an analog would be oxygen: mammals like you positively thrive on the stuff, but do look up "oxygen toxicity" if you accidentally increase its partial pressure to a few times ambient.
Jobs never coded, to my knowledge.
I'm not making that mistake, although you probably couldn't tell from what I wrote. I just think that if you are that talented, why do you want to waste your self-promotion efforts securing yourself a job working for someone else, when you could work for yourself or start a company with someone?
I just use "read" which is only one line of code, and has about as many features as linenoise.

readline is "bloated" because it actually does something.
The interesting aspect is that it is evidently easier to put something on a personal blog than get it into Wikipedia. Every time I have attempting to make a basic edit, a handful of times over many years, I have been shot down by whatever editor sees themselves as king of that little hill. I doubt any new entry by a new contributor would last 48h. The days of freewheeling openness at wikipedia are long behind us. The "professional volunteers" are in control there.
Yup that's the only way I launch anything.
If you change from completely free to free w/ads you will incur quite a bit of wrath in the reviews, at least with current users.
Nothing that messed up my life, but the pieces of bad advice I'm glad I dropped are "you should try to please everyone" and "a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush" which are a rough translation of two Romanian proverbs encouraging obedience and complacency.
As soon as I ignored those I started accomplishing meaningful things.
