No, why? What was your intent? To train your dog?

I am looking really hard to see a solid defense here. I do not have it yet.

I think the law is shit, frankly.

But, all I really have here is your game of fetch should be permitted because it is part of some other training regimen.

So, what is that training and how does a game of fetch contribute to it?

Put more simply, how is your game of fetch not like any other game of fetch?

Now, you should also know I could give two shits about what you do with your dog. Probably a lot of the stuff I do with mine :D

What you are battling here is people are not so inclined to see your position as genuine. I did not, and thought it worth a go as a general exercise.

So far it has been interesting!

Your actions and framing align most strongly with what I stated earlier, depending on ambiguity to get an off leash game of fetch in the on leash park.

If I were stuck with that scenario and in need of the park, I would just make sure some meaningful and unambigious training happened, because fuck 'em. No joke. Someone, somewhere may just be wound up two clicks too tight.

Most of what you appear to be depending on falls under wide discretion however, others wound up or not, your path is clear:

Maximize their ability to defend discretion in your favor and it will land in your favor more than not.

You appear to be trading on good will as if it were entitlement. That kind of thing fails often.

Good will is not an entitlement. It can be garnered, cultivated, encouraged, but not expected or demanded.

A nod to the spirit of the laws, some charm and consideration go a loooooong way.

If you have to explain the technicality? Doomed.

All this has gotten me out of a ton of vehicle and outdoors type citations and scenarios.

I could revise my position given you can tell me either:

Something other than fetch happened in the park

, or

how your game differs from the norm, or otherwise was necessary to do in that park and contribute meaningfully to a training regimen of some kind, any articulable kind.

Otherwise a person would likely see you playing with your dog off leash.

You gotta flesh something like this out a LOT more for it to play out favorably in my experience. I am not talking about licenses or any of that either.

I am talking about giving them something solid that speaks to training. It is missing from this discussion and it absolutely should not be. I asked for it multiple times too:

I had similar discussions with others many years ago. A few tweaks in how I go about things like this did result in a dramatic shift in good will coming my way.

Good luck.
Apple has always behaved this way. The only reasons that they got away with it was a combination of cultist loyalty and being the underdog. Apple has always been considerably more evil than Microsoft.
nginx in front of tornado here
Basically I was running CherryPy with supervisord+memmon since the application is a bit faulty. uWSGI alone can replace the whole stack: it comes with its own process manager, memory monitor and has Harakiri mode to monitor a process that is taking too long to response.

Initial setup was super tricky (Nginx in FreeBSD port doesn't ship with uWSGI support and XML config somehow doesn't work, so I have to use Python config which the documentation is lacking) but it has been doing its job ever since.

uWSGI is fast, has low memory footprint (a bit above Gevent/FAPWS) and is very reliable by itself. I'd recommend you to at least try it. The uWSGI documentation[1] was what got me interested.

[1]: http://projects.unbit.it/uwsgi/wiki/Doc

(By the way, I use a patch on this Chinese blog: http://www.indexofire.com/blog/?p=605 to build Nginx with uWSGI support on a FreeBSD. I made this: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=37857 for running on Arch. /shameless plug)
Prefer scp/sftp over git. Am I supposed to publish site assets like 20gb of images in git? You can still trigger server-side actions when a file is pushed if you allow ssh.

Other than that, more details on the service would be nice. How do you scale MySQL for instance? I'm a technical guy so low level details are an important aspect for me.
I'm having second thoughts about the small stack of resumes by Jason Fried that are still sitting on my desk.
I've worked for 2 startups before. Less money, less perks, coworkers can't cooperate well enough with each other and don't have time to gell.

Startups, at their first year, might be fun. But second and third year are soul crushing if they don't expand as fast as Twitter or Facebook. Startups have to keep the bubble strong (i.e.: brainwash) to motivate their employees. Otherwise, people will feel burn out due to 12-14 hours of working plus rotation on-call.

Most startups also write hacky code. In the long run, this can decrease moral of developers.

And you're right, there are reasons why turnover is so high in our industry. I don't think working for a big company is one of them. I didn't do a formal research but when I was browsing (re: stalking) in linkedin, the data I saw showed that people who work for a big company tend to stay longer than those no-name/small companies.

On the other hand, keep in mind that our industry keeps on building software to automate a long of manual tasks in a blazing rate. This could also be the reason why turnover rate is high: layoff due to automation.
VMWare offers a tool that solves this problem -- Lab Manager (http://www.vmware.com/products/labmanager/).

It even supports setting up environments that contain isolated clones of multiple servers (see other child comment).

From what I understand it's going to be replaced with a new product fairly soon, but I've heard great things about Lab Manger.
I build a little website which also lets you create thees kinds of porfile pictures.
bonus:
- it has a live preview
- drag & drop
- zoom

It's just a starting point.

And I bet they focused on Windows because there aren't as many great provisioning tools as there are for Linux.
DNS, URIs, and application-level protocols such as HTTP and SMTP work together, but that doesn't mean they are the same beast. The reason for the existence of URIs is to provide identifiers for resources. DNS makes these human-readable. Applications in turn use these facilities.

When the user types http://www.example.com into the address bar, it's the web browser that figures out what to do next. Which is: realize it needs to to a HTTP request. Where to? Not an IP, ask DNS. Now connect to the IP address. But an HTTP server can host multiple domains, so include the host name in the request (that's the Host header). The web server then looks in its configuration, and sends the right page back. Note that the HTTP headers are specific to the application protocol, and are irrelevant both at the DNS and URL level. It just happens to be the same string :)
Digg lost when it became Reddit's front page. Pure garbage.

Reddit won when they diversified their front page into groups. I rarely visit the front page now, only programming, coding, webdev, python and javascript groups.

Noise levels were reduced almost to zero.
Do you think "faking" something is more questionable or the word itself sounds questionable? The author doesn't share your definitions of the word faking or its pejorative connotations. So the only reason to go about doing everything in this post would be to satisfy not using the word faking itself.

That's not actually achieving anything. It's just more complicated term usage because you don't think the word can be used positively.

It's all semantics. I think the author was very clear and the whole concept made sense to me despite the use of the word "faking"...it didn't bother me at all.
This post is perfectly timed for us. We are trying to rise a market place and it´s really difficult to go beyond the egg and chiken problem. Even more if the model is new and there is no data to support our point.
Numbers: there's no issue with handling numbers using userdata. See how lgmp handles this [1]. There's a wider issue of just how Lua is the target language if most of the runtime and much of the semantics is being done in C libraries...

Which Python constructs in particular did you think were tricky? I had thought a bit about the special case of modelling Python comprehensions and decided that they translated nicely, but I might be deluding myself since I implemented nothing.

Could it be culture?

I used to know a girl (surname Britz) from Porto Alegre and her family was of German descent and seemed like she had no Brazilian features from what I could see.

When I see pictures and video of people in Rio it's like different country.
Can we instead have a discussion about recommendation "engines"? I've been interested in writing one for fun but I have no clue where to start in learning about them. Can someone point me in the right direction, maybe a Coursera/OCW course?
Depends on your definition of success really. Linux beats the living snot out of windows in high performance computing and supercomputers. It also beats the snot out of windows in embedded and mobile / tablets because it is so much easier for manufacturers to adapt it for their own needs. What is your definition of success? Linux never tried hard enough with desktops I think. Canonical's Ubuntu is trying awful hard to make Linux desktops relevant (which is cool) but even they have mostly ceded that fight and are going after the more viable mobile.

Ever bought a smart tv like the Sony Bravia or basically any of the nice Samsung TVs? Linux as well. How about a home router? Many of those are Linux. I'll go out on a limb and say there are a lot more Linux devices than Windows total (primarily due to the plethora of embedded and mobile).
> because Apple isn't going to help you without legally being forced into it.

As it should be. People don't like Apple being judge, jury and executioner, until they want it done for them.

There are proper ways to do what they need to do, Apple is not one of them. This is a legal complaint with the other developer, handle it through those means.
"As a developer, I am tired of my IDE slowing to a crawl when I try to compile multiple projects at a time. I am tired of being unable to trust the default behavior of the standard containers. I am tired of my debug builds being unusably slow by default."

Don't forget web browsers. Web browsers are horrible.
I'm not a crypto expert, but I understand the terms and arguments made in this article.

"Wary" is the key word. If I have a true physical RNG, I can certainly make 2 DVDs full of identical random numbers. I can share one with you -- physically, not using email or barcodes. We can then communicate in the open, saying something like "beginning at position x on the DVD, here is my message" and nobody can read the part of the message that travels between the crypto functions

They can still read my keystrokes, or gain entrance to where I work and video record me. They can gain useful information simply based on the pattern of you and I communicating. They even may be able to surreptitiously copy our OTP by using compromised software. But the OTP part is secure.

The real problem is that the entire OSI stack is a leaking piece of crap. It's been broken at every level. So even if you have "perfect" crypto? It doesn't matter so much.

ADD: Nothing's stopping you from using a OTP on top of a normal set of crypto algorithms. I like the OTP idea -- I'm just not sure in the current environment you're getting anything from it.
Looks like it's a repost of an article from NorthStar newsletter: http://iahushua.com/WOI/nsanet.html

It doesn't list Assange as the author, he only sent it to the newsgroup.
> Popular ignorance of the actual meanings of those terms does not change anything.

How do you think words get meanings in the first place? Do you think they're handed down from on high?
PCMCIA = People Can't Memorize Computer Industry Acronyms
Went to lollapalooza last summer and the 5G reception was incredible-- I raised my phone above the crowd and got mmWave 5G reception to send texts & photos. Was really nice.

Hearing that reception gets throttled is very strange to me, so I would like to know more about this as well.
Good point. It's odd how certain people get so fired up to bash and troll Vlang, then also state they never use it or refer to some controversy from 3 years ago that has lost its relevancy.

Additionally, somehow other newer languages like Odin, Crystal, and Zig seem to escape their wraith and trolling despite having some similar developmental issues. Very selective "hate".
Seems like the kind of response rate you'd expect for a traditional publication, which isn't surprising given that it doesn't seem like the tweeter has any kind of real relationship with the followers - they are just using it as a twitter version of an RSS feed.

I've seen this on some feeds we run - the response rates on Twitter are very low, especially because most folks don't expect their reply to be read by the other followers of the original account. Contrast that with Facebook where the followers of a page can see each other's responses and our pages with ~25K followers regularly see 150-200 responses to each post - and they post at least 6-12 times a day.
Europe had dramatically more credit card fraud than the US, so Europe mandated EMV decades before the US.

It will be many years before US merchants truly phase out accepting magnetic strips.
Ok, I'll try again.

For the same sized single-core chip (x mm squared), running at the same voltage and same clock speed, on the same manufacturing process node, is there a (significant) difference between ARM and Risk-V?

(I'm assuming that core size, voltages and frequencies are the biggest differences between the big and LITTLE cores. And yes of course this is a funky theoretical question so a theoretical answer is perfectly fine :)
Just like the last couple of years have turned us all into amateur epidemiologists, the last handful of years have turned us all into amateur epistemologists. The very foundations of how we as a society collectively decide on what reality is, have come under an adversarial attack. So now we're living through the societal equivalent of realizing that we've been storing passwords in plaintext and have been hacked. We're trying to minimize the damage and fallout, and stop the damage from happening further, all the while trying (and failing) to invent a set of best practices to prevent this from happening again.
I'm in the US and the only time I can remember going to an ATM in the past 5 years is because farmers markets sometimes give you discounts > credit card rewards for cash and weed shops cannot use banks so you have to pay cash.
The trick is making guesses that you know are incorrect to rule out multiple digits at once.
While aggregated services makes a difference, will it hold for future ? Like, if Uber figures out it is not cost effective to cater to certain areas and stops servicing them.
Please don't do this here.

Govt site in the UK I deploy onto is still 18-13% depending on the area of the site. Education is a late bloomer.
I'd spend $4 just for the possibility of old-media learning something.
On the "If your rent is paying your landlord's mortgage, you're overpaying" point: sadly, not every market is equal.

Over here (Uruguay), rents are way more expensive than an equivalent mortgage... simply put, people (myself included) don't have capital for the down payment (and the mortgage process is expensive in itself, at least U$D 1000 which is not a small sum here), so they don't have an option - it's renting, or the street/slums.

And no, there are no "no capital down" mortgages.

UNQUALIFIED APPLICANTS WILL NOT BE CONSIDERED is a neutral, uncontroversial statement that most people would consider fair and reasonable. You can also request the applicant to fill a company specific form so you can search for "qualifiedness" using grep.

UNEMPLOYED NOR CONSIDERED is rude, discriminatory, and barely legal, if at all. Not to mention is bad PR for the company in question.

HR fat cats who push this things on should be fired so they can enjoy their own stupidity first hand.
thanks for the feedback. you're totally right about the screenshot now that someone mentions it :)

will put a more engaging one in with some javascript sprinkles.
Yeah. This is a great article. While I was reading it, I was thinking about what I would have done, and my answer was Python. Bash is just too easy to do wrong (see the recent Steam rm -rf bug), and I don't code in it often enough to know the pitfalls by heart.

I'd be interested to see another article about doing this job in Python and how its performance compares to this simple one-liner.
Is the data available via a RESTful JSON API? If not is that something that would be possible, more than willing to help.

The data would be very useful to mobile apps and mashups if presented in an API.
Like any serious hobby, people are people and do stupid shit.

You know how nerds kill each other about systemd, vi vs emacs, C vs Rust? Crazy parents will pull together a group of 11 year olds from 30 miles away to beat your 8/9 year old to get into a tournament.
You can literally use the two hand in hand. You don't have to use one or the other.
Well it's not actually the function's start address, it's the instruction pointer's address for the top function (so it moves around while executing).

And going down the call tree, it's also not the start address, but the return address - so the place where in the previous function called this one.

Without debug symbols there's no way to tell if we're inside the same function block or not - it's all just addresses somewhere in the machine code.
I don't think you know what you are talking about. I am a CPA and there isn't any larger overhead expenses for one owner C-Corps vs. S-Corps. The main difference is that owners/employees of C-Corps usually just take money out by way of wages only. If they also take dividends they have to pay income tax on the dividends on their personal return, but get no deduction on their corporate income tax return. Thus "double taxation" is the result. S-Corps make it simpler to take distributions and make more sense and are more fair and equitable. Most S-Corps take money out in wages and shareholder distributions. The wages need to be reasonable and the shareholder distributions are a distribution of profit of which you pay income tax on, but there is no double taxation since the income flows through to your personal tax return anyway. I don't know what you mean about small number of people at the top of the company get to exempt half their income from taxes that virtually everyone else in the country has to pay. Our income is not exempt in any way. You might want to know your facts before spouting off stuff you don't know.
I certainly don't deny any such attempt. But i think that again it's a bit naive to say that things like this are new, and ignore historical precedent. I think that self-actualization and being able to determine the course of one's life is important, especially for work (i certainly wouldn't be able to live any other way). But treating that as a panacea for misery in the work place, or saying that it'd address the ethical lapses of places like Wall Street is naive or perhaps disingenuous.

I'm not knocking the message, i'm knocking the delivery and lack of context.
The "juggling tasks" test proved to be significantly more interesting; it certainly didn't feel as though the UI had as much of an impact on what my brain was working on (which, presumably, was the goal).
Like every other open source project:

- Do the work and submit it and see what the developer's response is.

I run http://geoipweather.com/. I could use some help on it. Specifically, a new layout to display everything on a 1024x600 netbook screen.
Different applications for EV certs will be required to provide certain additional information and all validations must pass CAB guidelines.

We personally use Comodo for our 'cheap' certificates as we get massive buy discounts and GlobalSign for EV as they've have a 2048 bit default root since the start.
In a "let's remember our dear departed" way, or more like "never forgive, never forget"?

I always thought that Eurostile is the cliched, high-tech (and rather 80s-ish) font of choice.
Cool article, thanks! I particularly like the bit at the end, which reminds me of the fact that I can no longer code without syntax highlighting.

I've no idea what your mental whiteboard must feel like, but I imagine it's very useful. I find a whiteboard to draw graphs (networks) on really helps me to think, and it looks like you don't need one!
Fair comments, but I'm still not liking it... I've had my existing Mac Mini for about 6 years and I don't really ever turn it off (it now mainly serves media). I would leave the back facing the front, but then I might as well buy a Dell.

I love Apple's visual and industrial design, but sometimes the focus on aesthetics impacts the user experience, which I think is more important (and generally something they completely nail). Example: the USB ports on my macbook are too close together to support most flash drives sitting next to any other USB peripheral. I think that this will prove to be another example.
Actually Aaron, you can use a domain name with a brand in it.... take a look at wipo and you'll see dozens of examples of this. I've posted one below.

That being said, if someone had a problem with our Toyota Answers site or iPad Answers site we would discuss it with them.

Not sure that you understand what the term Cybersquatting means. Cybersquatting is when you sit on a domain name that is the same as someone's brandname and you try to sell it back to them.

What we are doing is creating a forum for the public to discuss a product or service. We also take the time to do a popup to keep people from being confused.

There are many internet companies that do this including the publicly traded Internet Brands which runs sites like corvetteforum.com.

Here's the Wipo link for you to get caught up...

Based on the foregoing discussion, the Panel denies the Complaint under the Policy 4 (i) and the Rules 15. Complainant, Lockheed Martin Corporation, failed to show that the disputed domain names were confusingly similar to its trademarks. Therefore, the Panel orders that the disputed domain names <lockheedsucks.com> and <lockheedmartinsucks.com> remain registered in the name of the Respondent, Dan Parisi.
