I believe cstross's book Neptune's Brood is based on ideas from this paper.

http://www.antipope.org/charlie/blog-static/2014/09/crib-she...

Which is funny, considering older Krugman's a fan of Stross's other book series The Merchant Princes, which also tries to have a solid economic backbone.

That's why I mentioned the -X option... -Y handles the problem the correct way and doesn't have the same issues.

Edit: Ignore this, I was incorrect.
Things like your master thesis or anything like that simply aren't included in the citation count at all, generally no one cares how much students or general public are citing your work so that practice has no influence on the metric being used.

As the article states, it was cited 350 times in academic journals, i.e. cited in 350 reviewed publications with novel scientific work written by her peers.

More intuitively, CR is the horizontal dimension and LF is the vertical dimension in the printer head position on the page, which makes it more obvious which is the new line char.
I'm not even stating horrible things were done. Religion is just a management tool to align people's actions in a way that benefits the society they live in, and help it succeed in competition with other societies.

A lot of the effects of religion have been mostly positive, but in its core it's based on misinformation.
But you can’t listen to them now. Any underlying reasonable argument, policy or beliefs are now turned into monsters after they’ve turned all their opposition into monsters. They’ve become everything they claim to be protecting against. They must be fought before they can be heard.
It's the practical erosion of Free Speech

It's more like the result of free speech.

Or at least it is, in a woefully undereducated country with large segments of the population that reject science and value ignorance.

Careful, vetted, fact-based reporting is incredibly laborious.

It takes orders of magnitude more time, money, and effort than it takes your uncle Steve to fire off a group text message with a bunch of conspiracy theories or share his anti-vax opinions in yet another wonderfully insightful all-caps Facebook screed. And yet, they are treated with the same level of respect in a country like this.

Further restriction of free speech at the government level is not the answer. That would be even worse than what we have now.

The problem is, there is no answer. This is simply where our values and our ignorance has taken us.

I clicked on one in the list randomly. #38 8,000 voter application submitted by couple on behalf of homeless and the dead - https://www.nbclosangeles.com/news/local/pair-charged-with-v...

A man who tried to run for mayor in Hawthorne is among two people charged in a voter fraud case in which thousands of fraudulent voter registration applications were allegedly submitted on behalf of homeless people, the Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office announced Tuesday.

It doesn't even allege that any votes were submitted, the article was published Nov 17 so the investigation must have been going on for months.

Clicked on #237: Posted confidential voter information on website - https://www.washoecounty.us/voters/elections/20_gen_ab_ev_re...

That's the official website for Washoe County and the page is a voter turnout report so yeah obviously it's evidence of fraud (/sarcasm).

#356: Count the fraudalent [sic] ballots https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4eH3FpIy3TE&feature=youtu.be

It's just a youtube video of voting officials talking at a desk or something.

That website is evidence of nothing more than someone with too much time on their hands and ideology to push.
What kind of backwards logic is this? The fact that insane falsehood-spewing nutters can find a wide and exclusive audience (who have the freedom to choose not to listen to the non-nutters) is proof of the lack of practical restrictions on free speech, not proof of the erosion of free speech.
I'll be honest: I read a lot of fiction too. And this is awful. (Note: giving it up at chapter 3.)

Everything so far has followed this pattern:

* 1) Set-up.
* 2) Harry demonstrates his special, unique smarts.

Of course, step two is the far more important of the two.

Combine that with a ridiculously over-the-top amount of name-dropping (more citations than a doctorate!). (I admit, I did have a soft spot for the Flubber reference; it was instantly ruined by the AD&D one that followed -- and if "+6 thingamabobie" wasn't explicit enough for you, the entire next paragraph was about AD&D.)

This is not storytelling: "And she told him of He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named, the Dark Lord, Voldemort." Bleargh. And following it up with an academic citation WRT the bystander effect: WTF?

Anyway, everyone has opinions; that's just mine. Story should come first, and wish-fulfillment fantasies second. (Not that they can't add to a story!)
And totally forgetting that more iterations isn't necessarily better. If you push that to its limit, you can have an iteration ever second... And you'll get absolutely nothing done in each one.
My problems in trying for low CPC on these have been that Facebook just stops delivering traffic. Period. You basically aren't meeting their bid and it just stops. I tried targeting it pretty tightly by interest, but Facebook just wouldn't give me the traffic. Its possible someone was outbidding me.

If you opt-out, please be respectful to the TSA security people. They're just working and can't change the policies for you. Most of them are not in high positions and can't just walk away and find another job the next day/week. So they're not quitting no matter how rudely you treat them. No point to it and it'll just make them grumpy towards you and everybody after you.

It's best to just talk to them like a regular person and be nice about it. It'll make the pat down experience better for you and them. Just ask them to send the word upstream.

edit - Why was I voted down? Is someone suggesting that you should act like a douche bag to the staff?
Did you read the post? They went to the guys house...having completed a CAPTCHA is not that impressive on your resume.
But isn't the basic idea that, through genetic engineering et al, we can become a species other than our own? I can't fault a science fiction story for showing the possible sociological consequences of scientific progress, no matter how much I don't "like" the direction science or society is taking—that's the whole point of science fiction, after all.

People like to have protagonists with "human" values to root for in stories—in fact, it can be said that consuming narrative is basically how humans indulge in pretending to believe their own far values (by identifying with characters that act on those far values as if they were near, and then "liking" the works of writers that cause those identifiable characters to "win" the story—or, alternatively, that cause characters without those values to "lose", as in tragedies.) That's the reason that any setting, no matter how fantastic (D&D, 40k, HHGTTG) still has (something that acts and thinks like) modern-day humans. However, if you really think in Hard sci-fi terms, you begin to realize that there's no good, probable explanation for "the future" being such a setting without further, conscious intervention on our part to retain our current values (see Eliezer's "Theory of Fun" sequence.)
One of the great things about this backlash is that it springs mostly from just a handful of small, mostly web-based efforts. Jonah Goldberg's post arguably kicked off this latest, biggest anti-body-scanner outcry.

Among web sites:

http://www.optoutday.com is probably the most notable.

http://wewontfly.com is another biggie.

http://www.imadethetsafeelmyresistance.com (disclosure: I made it) has gotten a bunch of traffic too.

There are lots of others. This whole thing has heated up a lot in the last week or two. And I suspect the next week or two are going to be a lot bigger.
Hi,

I think it’s mostly from using temporary accounts to hide transactions. When you can “open” an account digitally without limits, this seems like the inevitable. They should look at actively traded accounts. Fast search shows ~1M active out of 460M total.
As a former student and now a parent. I have no idea why we need to recreate math books over and over and over again. Seems an incredible waste of resources. The fundamental material doesn't change.

I have seen politically motivated questions pop up in math questions for my kids. For years, this is pretty standard practice in my experience. Its not an appropriate venue to promote ideas yet it is used.

I am unsurprised at the Florida announcement. But it speaks to much deeper issues in education and I'm uncertain at Florida's moves.
I'm not sure what you mean, so my answer below might be a misfire in which case I apologize.

If an attacker can get a shell they would still need to have access to a exec environment and / or breakout of a "jail" or other protected space. Protecting your data store can prove tricky but there are quite a few products and techniques that basically reduce the amount of data that can be breached by any one attack vector (database firewalling, query filtering, etc).

Tidying up an OS + middleware (and having a decent L7 firewall) is sufficient to deter most attacks which is all you can hope for unless you can afford a good security architect and a response team and even that does not guarantee 100% security.

Obscurity, by itself, is not a solution but is often one of the most effective tools to deter simple attacks.

Top reason given to me by developers: "I don't want to spend time thinking about the distinction."
Edited to add: I'm not sure what's controversial about this? What did I mess up here? People seem to disagree but aren't, as of about an hour after I replied, saying why.

In a way, we're seeing this happen at the national/country scale already. Countries that can afford it ("that can be gouged the most") are buying hundreds of millions of doses and the systems that are supposed to be getting doses to countries that can't afford it appear to be going wanting.

That's the problem with health care as a capitalistic market. There's no upper bound on what someone would want to pay to preserve either their life or the life of someone they care about. The only limit is on the resources that person has access to, and people will make some screamingly bad long-term decisions in order to satisfy that short-term need for cash.

If we did as the grandparent proposed and opened something like a bidding market for vaccines, you'd absolutely have GoFundMe and whatever the digital equivalent of yard sales are for people who are desperate to get the vaccine but don't have the money. Hell, I already see "please venmo me some cash so I can shelter-in-place away from my relative who has COVID because I can't afford to catch it myself as I'm the only person who makes money for my household."

I wonder how much of this is just the industry maturing/specialising. We don't think it's weird that most people don't mill their own flour when they bake bread, so long as the quality of the flour is good enough we're happy for someone else to do it for us.

In the same way most people/companies don't really need to care what hardware their application runs on, only that it meets some bar of quality/cost that's appropriate for them. If someone else is delivering this then you've removed a small department's worth of overhead/planning from your corporate structure.
I think we will see a shift where some companies continue paying current salaries, and others will do location-based. The companies who keep paying current salaries will see people with skill move to them.

If you're a great employee, you will still have people competing for you and I don't think this should concern you.

I hate to play devils advocate but is dropping out of school a reflection of what is to come when the start up work gets tedious? Please don’t get me wrong I believe you should follow your passion and if that takes dropping out of school or climbing Mt. Everest follow Nike and just do it! Maybe dropping out of school shows the investor that you are serious but are you dropping out because you are serious or because you’re bored and this offers you a way out? Am I way off on this line of thought? By the way if I was facing the same decision I would drop out too.
To add a bit more detail: the amount you have to zoom in for shapes to look right will increase with absolute latitude. So the equator pretty much always looks good on Mercator, Europe looks good if you're looking at the continent scale, but then in Greenland and Antarctica you'll need to be zoomed in to a regional or city-size, or even closer in. So when it's really important to get a broad-scale view near the poles, map makers will switch to something like a polar stereographic projection or similar. (I've personally just used a transverse mercator projection (whatever UTM zone is most convenient) when doing data analysis near the poles.)
That looks like an interactive ui--I can't declare use-package forms in my init.el, and have the initial install and any updates be async and concurrent.
Thankfully it happens no where else.

4chan/diy was banned in my country for a long time "voluntarily" by telcos. There's plenty of garbage human beings on that site most certainly yes, but there's just as many on talkback radio late at night who advocate incredibly horrible things too, really horrible things, I worked in an industry documenting them.

Some people in society seem to get a free pass and others who are the mass media badguy of the day don't. To pretend it doesn't come down to advertising dollars is disingenuous.
Well, it sounds like you need to be learning things outside your domain in the hopes of entering the job market. Sometimes you can't fix the game.

BTW I'm quite wary of "security products" for enterprise; it reeks of antivirus software writ large. That said I can see some benefit to services like audits, or even things like honey pots or "dark net scans" for detecting leaks. But something tells me that's not what you're talking about...
C'mon, man... I'm getting tired of flagging your posts.
Yes, hpsum / SPP is what we use now. Not happy about it.
My mistake. I said encrypt when I should have said decrypt. You are correct though, symmetric key encryption would be better for this, and utilizing the answer giving by kolinko below, I wouldn't be surprised if they did use a different key for each file.
It's been overrun by SEO and seems to be getting worse every day. I was horrified when using someone else's computer recently to find that the selection quality of Google news was substantially better when I was not logged in.
"The next Haskell will be strict

-Simon Peyton Jones"

True, he does say that but the slides you reference show a more nuanced position than implied by that isolated quote.

Insisting on laziness forced the Haskell designers not to add side effects, eventually resulting in monads (slides 22 and 23), which ended up with Haskell programs having a "thin imperative shell over a fat pure core" internal structure. (slide 32).

SPJ then concludes that (1)purity is more important than laziness, (2)the next ML will be pure with effectful programming only via monads and (3) the next Haskell will be strict, but still pure (slides 39 , 40). (the differences between "the next ML" and the "next Haskell" are worth pondering)

It is through insisting on laziness as default and solving some of the problems encountered (via monads for e.g) that he arrived at the position that "the next Haskell will be strict". He also notes some open problems with adding laziness into a statically typed strict language (slide 40 "Still unclear exactly how to add laziness to a strict language. For example, do we want a type distinction between (say) a lazy Int and a strict Int?").

So yes, you are right that "The latest research fads in CS aren't always beneficial." but in this case it seems to have been (beneficial).

As someone maintaining a 20 k+ line Haskell codebase on my "day job" ("20,000 lines of Haskell is enough to bootstrap SkyNet" - OH on Twitter), I would appreciate a "strict-by-default-Haskell" (with an ML like module system too, while you are at it, thanks in advance!), but really Haskell is certainly more "beneficial" than any other language I've seen to date for certain types of programs .

Not contradicting your position,just qualifying it a bit.
Something came to mind that will skew this heavily. People will mention a company by name for mainly one of two reasons, either to complain or to tell people about some cool new thing. If someone mentions a ubiquitous company like Google, Verizon, etc, it's usually to complain. They're probably not telling the world about the wonders of Google search. On the other hand, if someone mentions a smaller company it's probably the cool-new-thing factor.
Are you sure about that distinction?

javascript doesn't have an integer type.

Possibly it makes things easier for some algorithms, but as I said, it is optional. It's not rocket science to rewrite any algorithm that relies on recursion to not need it.
Isn't the difference here that Google sees Android, long term, as a web console rather that a (native) app console? The browser is the killer app.
Yes, absolutely. Facebook is the worst offender by far, here - it loads separate resources (CSS, extra JS, different URI but equal in content) for every button on the page. Blocking it results in a startling faster web browsing experience. I don't have benchmarks on hand, but if you use Chrome's profiler and inspect heap sizes in pages like Techcrunch and Mashable, the heap size when you block Facebook assets is ~50% of what it is otherwise. It's pretty bad how badly those widgets slaughter page performance.

The counter argument to this is that there are so many health conditions that are getting increasingly bad which we have no explanation for since so many things changed at the same time.

A lot of Dutch people live in suburbs and work in cities, that explains the bulk of car traffic. If you look at trips within cities though, the bicycle has a much larger portion. In Amsterdam 38% and in Groningen 57%:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cycling_in_the_Netherlands
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Groningen

Comparing distance travelled is not really a useful metric in my opinion. Virtually no one is going to ride their bicycle 20-30 miles to work each day, when many people will happily travel this distance by car. It's for the short <5 mile trips that you want to incentivize people to take a bike instead of a car. That's where you have the most to gain in terms of making your city a more pleasant space to be.
Important to reiterate this, since it's an interesting feature - borg does, indeed, allow you to store the encryption key for your repository inside the repo itself and you just need to remember/safeguard the passphrase.

I can't say whether this is a good choice for any particular use-case but I appreciate that it is an option ...

For those that are curious, yes, you can later export the key from your repo so that you have a copy elsewhere ...

So why does Facebook want to trademark this word? And what would be the ramifications of this trademark? Would you have to pay a royalty every time you used the word?
However, Twitter later found that there were many problems with their system, and had to completely redo everything, to the point that '#newtwitter' now is just an interface that sits on top of their API.

So maybe it would have actually been cheaper in the long run to have built a perfect API first, rather than a web service followed by an API.
Thanks for sharing the link. I'm familiar with all the major 3rd party options. That's not the same as plopping an HP into a docking brick, and no one I know that's used both thinks it's remotely comparable. Just getting the ports lined up correctly each time led one of our techs to abandon the whole effort.
