This project looks great. VirtualBox runs on Solaris, an OS which supports writable snapshots and deduplication in the ZFS filesystem. Is there support for filesystem snapshots in Vagrant? It would be nice to spawn a new virtual machine from an existing on-disk snapshot.
Hey now, if the bank is pretty sure that it owns your house, and it really wants the money, it's fine if it forecloses on you. Paperwork is for chumps.

Yes, giving money (or cutting taxes) to people who are already wealthy is proven not to work (aka "trickle down economics") because they do not need to spend it locally and tend to only save/invest it overseas to their own benefit.

However it's also been proven that giving money to people of low income (ie. all the callcenter agents in India that Google and other corporations use) will then tend to spend the money immediately as they have little to no savings and need goods/services right away.

This also works for unemployed people in the USA, they tend to spend any funds given to them immediately, locally, which is good for the economy.
I think Microsoft is attempting to target students more aggressively, perhaps because of the appearance of other cheap/free options on the market in recent years. Just last year Office 2007 was on sale to students at $60.
You can actually think an interesting application and generate your own data. For example, we were developing a product for processing network events in real-time. There were 6-10K events per second, and we were creating alerts for several different scenarios. For testing purposes, we actually wrote a program to simulate those events, with 20K events per second. It was generating fake (but realistic) data with the right format.

Application idea from top of my head: Generate turnstile data for different subway stations (enter/exit, time) and wrote an application to show the density of those stations with times. You can create a scenario where a certain station is more dense than others, and this could be your test. And this application could be your proof of concept
If you know the stack layout, you don't need to do the pack/unpack. You can define the struct to match the stack layout and pass a pointer into the stack instead.

The struct may have holes that contain variables that aren't used by the nested function, but that doesn't matter. Also, you would have to make sure to flush values from registers onto the stack, and, depending on the ABI, would have to explicitly push arguments passed in registers onto the stack (that would have the struct contain a return address, but that's not a problem, either), if you need them to pass arguments to the nested function.
Most rite aid stores already have the payment stations but they are not activated yet ...
Yes, they implied (or outright stated that) she was going to get a horrible education, but they did NOT imply that it was due to being homeschooled, nor did they imply that every homeschooled person would get a horrible education.
That's very cool. Do you happen to have a picture of it?
Here's the counter to the DMCA (as it relates to Google Search): Browser app which parses the linked DMCA complaint and lists the probable URLs in the complaint, related to the search being performed.
"non-traditional names that have no racial implications, like "Rainbow" or similar"

Aren't the races behind these names usually clear? In Africa such names are along the lines of Pretty, or Precious, and in the west they're Apple, or Peaches.
That is correct, in the abstract. There can be programs written in both C and Java that do the same thing. The question is then: if people are writing programs in Java, what is the cause, what is making that happen?
Same here. Your site looks nice but I am really confused. Can not imagine what it normal use is. Congrats on shipping, anyway.
This is much easier said than done. Let's imagine that, for instance, the way to have gravity comport with the uncertainty principle starts with verifying the graviton doesn't exist, and that gravity is a non-discrete field effect (contrary to electric fields -- this is unlikely to be true or to help, but is an example of a statement we can evaluate for electric fields, which are similar but better understood). The experimental accuracy you would need for this is astounding, perhaps impossible except at exceptionally low temperatures or other extreme conditions.
Comcast would fight tooth and nail to prevent that. Comcast Sports Net is a huge contention point in negotiations with Verizon, RCN, etc. As far as it impacting Disney, ESPN is the most expensive cable channel you have. Debundling that would lose Disney a lot of money. Disney wouldn't let that happen.
As in many things in life, there is a spectrum.
There is no clear boundary
The clothes are undersized compared to average so the customer base feels extra obese and they pivot into a social fitness tracker network and an on-demand healthy meal provider with an IOT ordering widget.
I really appreciate the comment. If you think about ROI for each individual customer, it's really tough to calculate that in Google Analytics. Say you have a SaaS product and customer X sticks around for 2 months and customer Y spends sticks around for 2 years. Those are two very different returns and certainly not easy or obvious to track in GA.

As a consultant, I'm sure you know how much even very sophisticated people struggle with this. I'd guess less than 1% of Google Analytics users know there is a multi-channel funnel view, and even fewer can understand it.

That's fair...I should disclose that we have a competing product.

Thanks again for the comment.
Sure, because you're the center of the world and everybody else should think about your specific setup and technology fetish of the week rolls eyes.

Look, I dislike spam as much as the next guy, but being an entitled whiner like you are in this post is beyond ridiculous. If you don't like advertising and businesses trying to sell you stuff, move to North Korea and send me a postcard next Christmas to let us know how you're doing.
MailChimp. Strong recommendation: does all the hard stuff for you, gets you to actually sending with minimum of work, great API, responsive support, most beautiful UI you will ever see in a web app. Sends swag to customers for Christmas, girlfriend says mascot tshirt makes me look hot.
I hope the suggestion proves helpful. And nice to hear that you're looking out for people!

How are you picking this knowledge up yourself? Also, I may have missed this in the podcast but: when and why did you decide that incorporation was right for your business?
The same argument could be made against libelers.
It has a lot to do with the weakness of MD5. You can compute the md5 has of every 6 character lowercase string in seconds on a modern laptop. There are also vast rainbow tables available. However mozilla have disabled all the accounts that used MD5 anyway. Unfortunately this does not prevent the real risk, which is to people who reuse their password elsewhere.

Still, other hash functions such as the SHA512 they are currently using are also wildly inappropriate, as explained in the following excellent post: http://codahale.com/how-to-safely-store-a-password/
Hitting F11 works beautifully for me. The UI is very clean. I like that it isn't too wide. If that's what the original poster meant, then I'm not sure that it's necessary.

I would make at least one UI change though: make the page scroll smoothly and earlier than it currently does. Right now the box you write in extends down as you type long passages, until the text you are writing is literally pixels away from the bottom edge. At this point, each line is written at the very bottom of the screen, which is somewhat awkward, at least on my laptop. In addition, where in a typical text editor or word processor one can scroll until this text is at the top of the screen and then continue, because the text you are writing is at the bottom of a html document, the best you can do is scroll an inch or two down before you reach a blocking point.

It might be very nice to coerce the cursor position to between, say, 20% and 70% of the way down the screen so that you never have to type at the far edges above and below, just as you leave space on the sides.
Do you sneak into theaters to "test drive" a movie and then buy a ticket on your way out if you liked it?

It seems like PG wants people to vote on the content with less biases than before i.e. not knowing how it's been voted. If you now introduce the bias of how you have typically voted for that user, once it again it may affect how you vote for that comment.

Each vote is independent of the last vote essentially.
"You" could mean Redhat or even Google (Android).

This, if left to stand, is game changing (and bad, imho).
It would be interesting to pre-ship a bunch of supplies to mars.

Start the process like this:

Figure out a plan to build a base and sustain life.
Build the systems and devices to executre that plan
Start sending this equipment to mars.
Train your team. Cycle through plan.
Eventually you send your team(s) and they start using equipment.

Bonus if the equipment you send is autonomous and can start building before your team arrives.
> In contrast, in a GC system where you do _not_ have access to the explicit refcounting, you tend to always copy the node, just because you don't know if the original node might be shared through another tree or not. Even if sharing ends up not being the most common case. So you do a lot of extra work, and you end up with even more cache pressure.

It's possible that things were different in 2002, but I don't really think this is the case now. In general, I make the node immutable and never copy it (copying an immutable object makes no sense). In a well-designed code base, mutations happen within the function where the data is created (read: on the stack, where cache locality is a given). Immutability also addresses Linus' concerns with thread-safety. And that's not accounting for concerns which Linus DOESN'T mention, such as increased development speed and correct program behavior.

I'm not the only one saying this. Josh Bloch, for example, recommends immutability and cites cache reasons (http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/java/library/j-jtp02183/in...). And many languages (Haskell, Clojure) are designed heavily around avoiding mutation and sharing nodes within data structures.

This talk of copying nodes to avoid your objects changing out from under you sounds a lot like what I call "writing C in Java". Linus is looking at this from the perspective of, "If they took away explicit memory management from C, this is how I would do it." But OF COURSE if you just bolt a feature like GC into a language that didn't have it before, it won't work well. Effective cache usage in a GCed system requires other language constructs (like immutability).

Now, after all that, I won't make the claim that immutability in a GCed language like Java or C# is faster or even as fast as C with explicit memory management: it would take a lot of profiling code and comparing its functionality to make that claim with any kind of certainty. But it doesn't seem like Linus has done that profiling and comparison either.
Flagged. If there's one place that astroturfing doesn't work, it's HN.
Let's say you believe that Tether is a complete fraud and will crash the market at some point. How do you take advantage of this? I'm not myself trading, but I would be interested to know how that kind of short works in practice. From what I understand, that's what bitcoin futures can be used for?
ABC Australia and SBS are extremely slow to retract false or misleading news. SBS has refused to retract false information outright (they have zero oversight for online operations). ABC takes over a month to retract, sometimes as long as 3 months.

News Corp and Fairfax both retract false information fast. From my limited experience, News Corp issued a retraction within 10 minutes of my email and Fairfax within 2 days. Both fair.

ABC? 2+ months. SBS? Never.

Without commenting on quality, at least the private sector bothers to correct what they say. ABC and SBS couldn't care less.

imessage isn't a text message. It would use a very very little bit of data per message.
I think this is one reason you get people talking at cross-purposes about living car free.

Leaving aside where their job actually is... (Which, in the case of many cities may well not be in the city in the case of tech-related jobs.)

People tend to bias their activities to what they can do relatively easily. If you don't own a car and don't have a lot of space, you're probably not going to take up some space-intensive hobby or head off on a lot of weekends to hike or canoe. Maybe you'll lean a bit on friends with cars--though that tends to get harder as people get older and busy with their own activities. And maybe you'll rent a car now and then. But mostly you'll fall into activities that don't have a lot of overhead associated with them.
Permabears’ final hope is that tether is a scam, because if that fails they have nothing to grasp onto to explain bitcoin’s rise other than legitimate demand.
Well, what if you use those reserves to buy bitcoin on your own exchange?
Epic would have to be out of their mind to lock this tech up. Licensing it out to other companies brings them pure profit, and they still can incentivize people to use Unreal ecosystem by integrating this tech into their engine.

They haven't given me any reason to worry yet, what with how when they acquired Quixel, made Mixer and Bridge free, and cut the price of all Megascans assets in half for everyone while making them free for Unreal users.
Health policy is fraught with counter-intuitive phenomenon - and screening is one of them.

Seems like it should help, but in practice leads to over-diagnosis.

For example - Cancer rates jumped in Korea after screening with no impact on patient outcomes [1]. There are several others.

Based what was presented at the last DjangoCon, I believe so. We're doing around 1b pageviews a month now.
Thanks. it's obvious, now! ;)
If you want to get technical,

Excuse me but have you seen Papervision stuff? It's pretty lousy by comparison. No real-time video textures,

One absolutely can have real-time video textures, even using an outdated technology like PaperVision (and more so with the new, still not gpu accelerated, 3d software renderer).

Did you notice there was a pause button? Can't do that in Flash without a major overhaul of the broken timeline system.

The "timeline system" is not used in any real animation project.

Did you notice the beat detection? It was awesome. It would be a huge CPU hog in flash (if you have the security rights to access the audio stream) - no problem in Javascript with the Firefox Audio API.

It's not a CPU hog, and audio spectrum analysis features have been present in Flash for a long time - google "AS3 SoundMixer.computeSpectrum" for a specific, player-based API for that. And if you want to compare AS3 speed to JS -- you're dreaming if you think JS is that fast compared to AS3.

On top of it all, Flash 11 beta already supports GPU-accelerated 3d on top of OpenGL (or DirectX or OpenGL ES, and a software renderer if all of these are unavailable). If you want to present features like the ones from this demo - that only a handful of people will see - then compare to the next version of Flash Player too instead, and let's see who doesn't support enough shaders.

I guarantee you: Flash Player 11 will reach 90% penetration on desktop devices before webgl even reaches half of that.

Say what you will about the subjective advantages of this demo. But don't lie about the technology you're trying to advice against.
Double-tap the video to flip to the other camera.
You're conflating "owner" with "operator". The airlines bought the 737Max because they calculated it could increase profits. The operators – pilots – were not sufficiently involved in designing, implementing, or documenting MCAS to even know they should be advocating for agency.
The backbone of many statistical institutions such as the Office for National Statistics is Excel. I worked on porting a lot of complex Excel systems to Python that had been around for 5+ years.

There were teams of people whose job it was to produce one report over a timeframe and they had the process to a fine art.

The main problem came when members of said teams left. Macros locked behind passwords, magic numbers in formulas, the wheels could come off very fast.

If Excel had a more robust functionality for versioning and documentation it could be even more of a powerhouse than it already is.
Even if you taxed them to the bone it wouldn't be enough so you're going to need to tax the bulk of the commerce instead of just the residuals after it falls into their relatively idle hands.

Cat5 is suitable even for 1000BASE-T (Gigabit), although at that speed it's just not as good as Cat5e [1]. But it should be enough to handle 120mbps.

I spoke to one acquaintance about this after he told me that for his team, they are doing the calculations on the frontend mostly - his explanation was that it turned out to be too unperformant to cache precomputed values in a remote database (and even in IndexedDB) and pull them out (his company does a lot of work involving heavy data analytics & visualizations).
Because Github does not want to be complicit in Chinese government censorship, and if they blocked what that government obviously wants them to block, then they would be.
>None of them provide 100% of known essential nutrients. You will develop a vitamin deficiency consuming any of those exclusively. That is in no way accomplishing what soylent claims to do.

Personally? I dismiss those claims as marketing fluff. I am not competent to evaluate those claims; I'm not saying that the guy is lying or anything, soylent may in fact be perfect. I don't know. but the claims sound so out there that I don't think they are worth evaluating. I am treating them as marketing fluff until/unless credible people do a credible study.

I suspect that none of the other meal replacement drinks make such claims due to fear of legal liability. "A delicious shake for breakfast, lunch, and a sensible dinner" is the standard formula, which is reasonable; I'm sure Soylent would work just fine on a similar plan. (hell, for most of us, water would work just fine.)

I bet that as Soylent accumulates money (and lawyers) they will move towards a model where they emphasize 'And a sensible dinner'
27 seconds on the Youtube video for the first pixel drawing.

On this ThinkPad P15 G1 workstation, it took about 2 minutes on Firefox and makes the browser unresponsive to anything other than the click me text.

Not at all comparable.
Last time I checked (6+ years ago) even the top of the range Microsoft ERP products (which called Dynamics AX at the time) was actually pretty limited compared to SAP - in particular it's payroll module only seemed to handle the US.
I moved out of the country mid 2018, and that was around the time I removed the number from every service I had it with.
I tried to migrate to 2FA and authy since my phone number was likely going to change frequently.
I also tried to switch over to twilio for services that required a number, but a lot of short codes reject it, which really sucks for someone who needs to change phone numbers a lot because of travels.
>>The key problem is that corporations can avail themselves of the public goods (infrastructure, public education, public order) and then use accounting maneuvers to shift profits to jurisdictions that will not tax them.

Countries can easily tax income generated by foreign corporations within their jurisdiction.

What you and Yellen are advocating risks imposing on the entire world an economic and tax system that may be far from optimal, to address a risk that can be mitigated through numerous other methods.
Here's a couple of lines to let you use this with :make (on a single file) and the QuickFix window in Vim:

au BufNewFile,BufRead *.js set makeprg=gjslint\ %
au BufNewFile,BufRead *.js set errorformat=%-P-----\ FILE\ \ :\ \ %f\ -----,Line\ %l\\,\ E:%n:\ %m,%-Q,%-GFound\ %s,%-GSome\ %s,%-Gfixjsstyle%s,%-Gscript\ can\ %s,%-G

If any experts in Vim's makeprg/errorformat want to clean this up, that would be awesome. I just hacked it together and it seems to work well enough.
