I didn't consider offering equity. I understand it's common but I have a (possibly irrational) aversion to giving away any part of my company. To the point where I would rather do freelance work to get the money and pay the designer.
It's "to," man! I thought that degree was supposed to provide you with some writin' skillz?
There is a clock in my car, a clock on my PC, and a clock on my cellphone, I keep my watch in my dresser drawer and use one of the others. Your mileage may vary.
Could be. Maybe it's not optimal code dealing with all the user details. It has to know all the submissions you voted on and anything else.

Or maybe it was a coincidence and it was faster at the time you logged out.
This places the venues front and center and relies on a community of friends to generate any real interesting recommendations. What made yelp so successful was the community involvement.

This really feels like a recommendation engine based on your google profile and not a place to really get a feel for restaurants in your area.
Very funny ... HotPot is a Suki restaurant in Thailand - http://www.hotpot.co.th/
Wait 'til you hear about antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
The city claims it was asked for. That doesn't mean it was, or perhaps it's just one Karen asking for it.
Strategy retrospectively is easy...
We're pulling the trigger tomorrow to migrate the first productive system to nomad, and launch 1-2 new products on nomad first. It's quite exciting.

We chose nomad there, because it's a business requirement to be able to self-host from an empty building due to the data we process - that's scary with K8. And K8 is essentially too much for the company. It's like 8 steps into the future from where most teams in product development and operations are. Some teams haven't even arrived at the problems ansible solves, disregard K8.

The hashicorp stack with Consul/Nomad/Vault/Terraform allows us to split this into 4-8 smaller changes and iterations, which allows everyone to adjust and stay on board (though each change is still massive for some teams). This results in buy-in even from the most skeptical operations team, who are now rolling out vault, because it's secure and solves their problems.

Something that overall really impressed me: One of our development teams has a PoC to use nomad to schedule and run a 20 year old application with windows domain requirements and C++ bindings to the COM API. Sure, it's not pretty, it's not ready to fail over, nomad mostly copies the binaries and starts the system on a prepared, domain joined windows host... but still, that's impressive. And it brings down minor update times from days to weeks down to minutes.

Being able to handle that work horse on one hand, and flexibly handling container deployments for our new systems in the very same orchestration is highly impressive.
Speaking on my personal experience, I think it's like an ego thing when you think "I came up with something special" and don't check with others/externally if it's really unique. Same with business ideas... I had some dumb ones I was like "this will explode" ahh...

edit: although I think the gist I see here is unneeded complexity
Bitcoin can be mined with any available resource, even by hand (although that's clearly not ideal).
When cryptocurrency provides 1% of the services that the traditional banking system does, let me know and we can do this comparison.
People migrated to whatsapp because you could talk for free over your internet connection at home. At least in poorer countries.
>silently exfiltrate useful data/create an advanced persistent threat

The chinese successfully pulled this off at Lockheed in the early 2000s

They would get lists of employees who attended various conferences, then email them a trojan saying "hey we met at conference X - here is something for you to click on"

And employees would fall for it.

The malware would TRICKLE out data very slowly so as not to be noticed.

They did this for a LONG time.

At the time, lockheed only had 3 egress points to the internet - and they had 110,000 laptops.

Another attack vector was the same as stuxnet - airgap; attack a supplier in taiwan, infect any USB stick put into the suppliers machines, then transfer once that USB stick was put into the Lockheed machine.

When the ruse was discovered - the chinese removed the throttle and they attempted to firehose out as much data as they could before they were cut off.
I agree and the people who are tying themselves into knots to justify using the r-word reminds of people who pointedly use the word "niggardly" instead of any number of synonyms just to get a rise out of the audience.
Agree I think - the most common mistake people make is just not doing the work. The work means:

Understanding the regulatory framework for your ecosystem (and partners), and maintaining policies that align with those requirements.

Ensuring that system owners understand the policies, and that they document how they meet the requirements.

Ensuring that actual behaviour corresponds to the design and keeping an eye out for errors (if you haven't had to scrub your centralised logging yet you should probably be looking harder...).

The intent is not primarily to sweat every detail but to limit gross violations and make sure you're not asleep at the wheel (which is common) or behaving badly.

What audits want is evidence you're "doing the work". Be able to clearly explain what you do and why you think it complies. Be able to prove what you say. The details tend get hashed out as a result of following a process.

The real-world problems people tend to have are more like "we don't know why we copied all our customer information to that bucket" or "hmm they might have onsold it" or "we don't actually know all the systems that read from this database or what they might copying out it" than "we are concerned about advanced storage necromancy".
Pretty soon we’ll all be Russians!

Take a look at my reply to the OP
You move from "gambling" to "investing" by analyzing the target company and coming up with your view of the correct price for the stock. You then compare this price to the market price. If market price is lower, buy. Otherwise don't.

This is basically the same way professional sports betting works. People involved collect information about the teams and try to understand how this information affects the outcome of the match. Once they have established their own view on the probabilities, they check the odds bookmaker if offering and calculate the expected outcome, i.e. how much money will this bet give me. If your calculations are right, then repeating this over and over again will lead to profitable betting in long term.

In a sense the gambling/investing distinction is just in your own head. Maybe you are so bad at evaluation the companies that a coin toss would be better predictor for success than your Excel sheets.
I think it's like the fight club formula, if the projected consequence of taking them down is less than the combined sum of all the users missing out on the ads, they leave them alone. If their popularity grows, they will take them down.

By the way, just because they are available doesn't mean they actually work. YouTube is very effective at working around ad blockers.
I was also a customer. I hated the "web2.0" look. Information was pretty, but it was on different pages and loaded slow.
I forgot to mention: before running the script (as if anyone ever would), create a file called "notified" in the same folder with the content "85.0.0" without the quotes, or whatever recent firefox release version you want to build from. The script also needs to be able to write to this file.
Fun facts, now even the latest lower end Intel's CPUs (Atom, Pentium, Celeron) will feature the much improved Gen 11 iGPU over the last generation Intel's built in GPU [1].

The latest iGPU supports more than 1 TFLOP in GPU performance. This is apparently more than the performance of two years old Nvidia GeForce GT 1030.

You can use command-line tools for Manta without touching any Javascript. That's probably the best way to go. Although I do like Javascript.
Good analysis but small nitpick: the use of "Θ" in Θ(a×exp(R×𝑡)) is slightly inaccurate (or is it the use of "a"?) because the set of functions Θ(a×exp(R×𝑡)) is the same for all positive a.
I remember how tightly locked-down China was at lunar new year not even 365 days ago.

This is a crying shame.
Generally, you should do what makes sense for your organization regardless of what other organizations are doing.

I have the feeling that without strict moderation and accountability, this would degrade in quality very, very fast.
Yup. Its impossible to really focus in an open-office work area. I have to meet with another team occasionally that's management bought into the open-office hypetrain. Its awful. The noise is overwhelming, there's constant distractions (even small noises like people shifting in their chairs can become overwhelming when its coming from you from every direction)

Anyone developing games with this project is likely to be on Windows, Linux or Mac, on x64 or aarch64. Such developers would likely install Rust with rustup, not with the distro provided one. So yes, any developer that fits this description can rely on the newest, hottest compiler.
(Your sarcasm may have been too subtle for the average reader.)
I use that same strategy in Wordle. Most often my first word is SOARE and the second is MINTY… unless I got like three matches in the first word, it’s better to get extra data quickly.
I think you are talking about Bay Trail, which powers the low end Chromebooks and is a replacement for the Haswell Celeron, not Broadwell in general. The new Bay Trail chips are indeed horribly slow compared to last gen Haswell Celerons (i.e. the one in Acer C720).
Bro (or Sis? :) )! They're not supposed to care about security, you are! Our job in infosec is to show others how insecurity affects what they care about so in order reduce,transfer or eliminate risk to what they care about they allow us to implement good security. The failure is on the infosec side of the equation.

It confounds and mildly pisses me off when people get pissed and get burned out over suits not caring about infosec. I mean,they care about promotions,reputation,bottom line,ROI,KPI,etc... That's what they do. You know why the marketeers and buzzword snakeoil salesmen prosper? It is because they communicate not only risk but especially [fake] solutions better! Infosec is full of user and management blaming, expecting peoppe outside of software developers and infosec practitioners to care about infosec. I am not saying I have it figured out but I am fairly certain users and decision makers need to be told solutions within the context of risk that affects them. And if it doesn't affct them they're not supposed to care.

I'll give you an example, a network is filled with tls1.0,and ssl1.3, how does that affect some mid sized company's bottom line or reputation? How do they get ROI on the man hours and resources spent to upgrade everythig to TLS1.3 with proper cipher suites and key exchange? and what KPI can they use to measure efficiency of resources? How will you tell them security hygeine takes a very long time to show ROI as do many other security concepts?

You don't really have to do all that if you don't want to, plenty of skill demand to where you can progress to more exciting positions.
This not just simple noise removal but combining multiple photos with the noise appearing in different places (aside from the hot pixels). So, it's a strategy to get much of the same effects of a really long eposure with much less noise than you'd expect based on the tiny sensor because it averages out over multiple shots. In principle of course possible to do with a DSLR as well. E.g. Hugin might be able to do this.

Of course regular noise cancellation and other very lossy processing
still kicks in after that (which may explain the blurry result). It would be interesting to look at the raw image produced by this.

I use open camera on my cheap Nokia 7 plus (which uses two cameras) and have been getting OK-ish results in Darktable. The dng file you get combines information from both sensors. One of them is black and white so these look really flat until you fix it in post processing. The raw photos have lots of noise (as you would expect) but noise filtering is pretty effective.

I imagine for this it would produce a dng with information from the different stills combined but none of the other post processing (except maybe hot pixel removal).
Don't like that idea. There are a lot of direct links across the internet to tweets that would get broken if the handle was renamed.
But there's also a middle ground of advertising without excessive tracking - YouTube and Reddit (and most major websites, including social media sites where you're actively following interests) already have enough information on your intent to show relevant ads for the content you're viewing, without tying that to you individually.

A lot of the inventory I buy is now on intent-based sites, and the passive profiles used for cross-site banner display for example, for us, tend to drive the lowest quality conversions.

Advertising can still have a place, but it requires effort to do well (like buying a sponsored post on a subreddit right now). Higher effort though I'd wager will lead to better conversions for all in the long run.
To play devil's advocate, what part of the XMPP protocol is dated, that doesn't allow Facebook and Google to continue using it? Maybe if there's a way to update XMPP to include features that shared amongst these services, they can fall back to using it?
But you can have it with probability 1...
OK, so what is the politically correct term for the use of, say, a double negative in English?

The preferred euphemism used to be "non-standard", which still leaves the problem of defining "standard" English.

Rather than a new journal, it'd be better if established journals included special sections/topics on OSS related to the journal's area.

Journal of Machine Learning Research already does this [http://jmlr.csail.mit.edu/mloss/].
Well Octavio did work a full year on it before finding John, and still took another year of hard work before they were able to release a quality product.

Hopefully this app is a home run for them!
As a friend who knows octavio, they've tried various "OCR" techniques from typical journal papers and in general those types of algorithms were mostly for static images. They struggled for 2 years to find the best techniques and I think they final product is great.
When I watched it a couple months ago, I did not know that this was the Minecraft developer (I think it was before Minecraft was released). The video is and was probably the most inspiring thing on the power of creative programming I've ever seen. His ability to iterate and iterate and create something out of literally black nothingness. When you see him doing the artwork, you're like woah - he does his own graphics too!
I find the assert_equal and so on much more readable than the "English" style. What does "should" mean? It's not as intuitive as assert.
Unfortunately this style of assertions will lead to warnings in your test cases. I find many RSpec projects run their tests without warnings enabled because of this issue.

I MADE A VIDEO WITH FUN MUSIC TO DEMONSTRATE! :D :D

The idea that increasing density is good for the environment has been conventional wisdom among environmentalists and planners for decades. (Synonyms that are often used for popular appeal include 'transit-friendly,' 'smart growth,' and 'anti-sprawl.') If West has made progress in quantifying this effect, that's great, but the conclusion alone would be much too banal to be the lede of an article in 2010.
I would make a separate blog post on it and post that here, or even just an Ask HN type post.

That said it sounds interesting, but I would love to hear how committed the team is to keeping these things alive. What VP is behind PTVS and willing to put their butt on the line for it? I think a lot of people might still have a bad taste in their mouth after IronRuby and IronPython got a lot of attention from MS and then languished and were abandoned for years. Let's not let that happen again please.
>Having said this, I've found limited proof that a particular language is any safer than another as it comes down to safe coding policies and risk mitigation strategies.

Proof is right there in the article. To have PHP on the live server is a security risk, period.
I think the nail in the coffin was when portable devices were allowed during take-off and landing in the US.

I used to skim SkyMall when the flight attendants told me to put my phone away and would sometimes even continue reading when devices were allowed. But now that I don't have to put down my device at all, SkyMall gets none of my attention.
I would much rather have Central Park, an enormous and high-value piece of public land which is a crown jewel of the community and managed by the government as such, than a partial public-ish interest in "open space" or something on each privately owned lot, which is constantly being negotiated between landowners and a planning commission and ends up "meh," and where you aren't allowed to actually go, just look at.

I think this would be an important component of a YIMBY or Georgist future, to have public open space and park resources owned and managed explicitly rather than implied on each parcel.
Could you expand on that? I get the reference, but what is your heuristic?
Clicked "Look: Try our latest demo version" and got a certificate error in Chrome :(
https://localtunnel.me/ does the same thing but with ssl for free.

This is exactly why such a scheme, while well-intentioned, would utterly destroy confidence in Bitcoin.
What is "DMLname" in "tablename_DMLname_[description]" ?
In the US maybe, but T-Mobile in Poland is still the most expensive option with crappy phones.
Well, I'm completely prepared to agree that downloading music after purchase is both () less convenient than it used to be and () filed under an unintuitive name. But on the other hand, the cloud player sync does let you redownload already-purchased music, which I don't think you could do before. Mainly I was responding to the idea that downloading was being obstructed, which I don't agree with.
>Example: A java IDE that can't set up java automatically for me (OR detect/configure an existing install without my intervention) is disappointing.

Well, it might be disappointing, but that describes all of them. Idea and Eclipse don't automatically install Java.

So it's hardly unique to MonoDevelop.
Very fascinating read, I especially liked the zoology of idioms, and I learned something new (comparison between pointers to different objects is undefined, there goes my idea of storing structures directly in radix tries, lol!)

I don't understand the obsession with garbage collection. Memory safety is a worthy cause. Garbage collection, though--if you want that, then use a different language than C. Malloc and free aren't really that hard once you know what you're doing.
Looking at my comment history, I get the impression someone's systematically downvoting all my comments. Can I report this anywhere ?
"whatever it is, it is higher than non US based exchanges".

Riiight, because nowhere except the US imposes financial regulations. Hey remember that time Europe existed?

What sets Coinbase apart right now is not what country they happen to be in, it's that they've sought extra levels of conformity with their local authorities. If Bitstamp were to register with the British Financial Conduct Authority for example, people would have a lot more confidence.

Lets not be so arrogant to imply that bitcoins future rests on the US market.
When Galileo published "Sidereus Nuncius" it was shocking because if what it said was true, like it was, the entire social hierarchy built over false principles would collapse, like it did.

Great artists like Goya, Van Gogh, Renoir wanted to express something that they felt and they just did not care if it created scandal, but scandal was not the main objective. For example Goya wanted to express the horror he had seen in the Spanish independence war against Napoleon, even when some people suggested him not to do it.

The same happened with Michael Servetus, or Darwin,Voltaire, Freud, all those people were really shocking, but shock was not what they wanted.

But that great advances are shocking does not mean that anything shocking is an advance.

Artist started using "shock for profit" with the advent of the media. With Television and radio just shocking alone could be incredible profitable, and they started taking advantage of it.

People like Dalí(for me a great artist) started cultivating eccentricities not just in their art but in their lives because it sold very well(and it let him life very well doing what he loved to do).

In fact Dalí was very respectful with other people, he lived his life like he wanted but let other people live the life they wanted too.

But soon it became what everybody did, specially mediocre artist that believed they were genius for offending other people, and people developed anti bodies and started just ignoring them.

Just offending someone else does not make you Dalí.

Now evolution and Big Bag are the big dogmas. They are the status quo today. They are not teached as theories that could be improved or even replaced in the future with something better, but as what already happened, no doubt about them. You see people talking about the first femtoseconds of the Universe with absolute confidence.
We are now 3 comments deep into you claiming that users can violate the GPL, and repeatedly not explaining how they can do so when asked. Is it too much to ask for a specific example of how a user can violate the license on a piece of software using the GPL, rather than repeating the same insinuation without any substantiation?
Top CS programs are not about learning any specific language.
Please don't do this. Any firewall will work for security concerns, and RFC4941 support will work for privacy concerns.

I haven't seen a consumer CPE that both supports v6 and doesn't firewall off incoming v6 connections, and I haven't seen any operating system in years that doesn't enable RFC4941 by default.
I'd recommend this tutorial https://ruslanspivak.com/lsbasi-part1/. It's Python.
