I think the scratches are in exactly the same place each time, which suggests they're on the chip, unless the chip was repositioned very carefully.

The vertical portions of the scratches in the dry pic are accentuated, while the horizontal portions of the same scrates are highlighted in the wet pic. The only thing I can think that would cause that is the chip being rotated 90 degrees in relation to the scanner light.
these medicines aren't preventative, they're also used to cure existing infections. although they gave him all the serious shots, my dog still came home from the shelter with tapeworm and fleas. the grain-free organic-chicken based dog food i feed him isn't going to help with that. neither is letting him out into a field to kill some furry things (and believe me he loves to do that, he's a terrier).

also, dogs don't usually get worms and fleas from killing small animals, they get them from other dogs. just like people, if you live in the city (with dog daycare, dog parks, lots of other dogs playing on walks) it's a bigger problem than if you live in the suburbs or countryside and you have a mini-pack of your own dogs on your home property.

also, nobody ever said fleas or worms will kill your dog, it just makes life absolutely miserable for both the dog and the owner.
The franchise addiction is well known. What changed in 2014 is that studios started publicly issuing product roadmaps. The next half decade of the comic book universes has been mapped out. (Disappointingly, Black Widow doesn't get an origin movie.) A chart: (http://wac.450f.edgecastcdn.net/80450F/comicsalliance.com/fi...) This covers all the way up to the next Green Lantern movie in 2020. (The last Green Lantern dud will have been forgotten by then, like 2007's Spiderman 3).

Disney actually has a Crap Sequels Division, Disneytoons. For decades, they produced direct to VHS/DVD/BD sequels: Cinderalla 2, Mulan 2, etc., which could be found near the checkout in low-end retail stores. When Disney acquired Pixar, Disneytoons was phased out, and a number of designed-for-mediocrity projects cancelled. But it came back to life. Coming soon: Cars 3 and Tinker Bell and the Legend of the NeverBeast.

The only hope for novelty may be another big series in Young Adult books. Not much innovation there right now. The vampire and zombie books continue to come out. (Vampires down, zombies holding steady, based on bookshelf space in stores.) Teen survival stories are big, but they're mostly bad Hunger Games clones at this point. J. K. Rowling did the magical school thing so well that nobody else can compete. Greek mythology seems to have peaked outside the Marvel universe; the endless Percy Jackson trilogy stream is still coming out, but everybody is tired of it. Tom Clancy books are still coming out, even though he's dead and the ghost-writers suck.

As Comics Alliance says, "This is what the next five years of your life looks like."
Many Worlds does solve the measurement problem (argueably) better than any other interpretation of quantum mechanics. [1]

Sure, it would be a huge amount of work to fix/replace TCP. Google is one of the few companies with the resources to even attempt it, so it's disappointing that they aren't making it a priority.

The really frustrating thing is that Google is already working on QUIC, which is probably the best approach with a realistic chance of success. It removes TCP from the stack and provides a general purpose transport layer rather than one which is tightly coupled to HTTP. Unfortunately Google decided to push SPDY with it's own kludged up transport rather than taking the time to do it right with SPDY over QUIC.
I'm an Indian, and lentils are one of the main ingredients in vegetarian Indian cooking. Mostly because they are the main source of proteins. I've never had any...problems with the force. But it might be because of conditioning.
Sounds like a great opportunity for some hackers (hardware and software) to get together and put together a Secure Open Wifi protocol and reference designs.

I honestly believe this is solvable. Maybe there's no financial market, but it seems like a tremendous good.
"it should be completely obvious that this is the food of primitive people - our ancestors"

Citations please. There are people that claim the opposite of you saying that fruit was rarely a staple and merely a seasonal food. There's also some who assert that fruit today is grown solely to yield sweetness and not nutritional content.
I didn't rule out private trackers, I just failed to mention it.

In any case, I personally find Usenet superior to private trackers but I can see it from the other side. They both have pros and cons.

My main gripe with private trackers is that it's not as fast and I have to constantly worry about my ratio and seed. Granted, I pay for Usenet so it's a trade-off.
Golden Produce, a local shop

A few doors down from Golden Produce is El Castillito, the source of my staple food: the super carne asada burrito. At just over $8 it sounds more expensive, but OP doesn't mention how long his staple meal takes to prepare.

Preparation time is definitely a cost if you'd rather be doing something else. Like taking a walk to buy a burrito. So I don't think the $3 figure is entirely accurate.

This does make me curious about how my meal stacks up in terms of carbs/fat/protien/calories.
Seems appropriate to link directly to the original source for this one: http://www.stolencamerafinder.com/
It's certainly cheaper than an official bean roaster. I'll have to buy one and see what a popcorn machine is, because I don't think I've ever seen one, and I assume you aren't talking about the ones at movie theaters.
Thank you for that perspective! It's nice to know it's OK to calm down a bit!
Those are only two examples of apps that support TOTP[0]. TOTP is a standard with many implementing apps, including free and open source that will accomplish the same thing. The two apps listed on the website are just well known examples.

You may be correct. I wasn't playing DF that far back, so I sort of forgot about the pre-3D versions.

Seems like they just added ghosts yesterday. This should be interesting...

Wonder if it affects possessed moods? Hmm...
What if they were just plain hugnry all the time, it was miserable and only the strong survived?

I think the point is that regardles of being miserable, hungry or happy, the bodies adapted to the circumstances. Now what happens if you take the body that is best adapted to being hungry for periods of time and place it in the limitless food environment? Chances are that you will get a very happy and a very overweight person, with a shortened lifespan.

That would certainly jive with the caveman hypothesis, but does it sound like fun? How miserable are we willing to make ourselves for a few extra years in a nursing home?

I think that's a good point and not quite a false dichotomy. There probably are not enough studies to confidently state that "reducing calories by X% lengthens lifespan by Y%" but if the choice is "eat everything that will make me happy" and "be alive from my 80th to 85th birthday", different people would make different choices.
We have no means to verify 99.99% quotes in the news, yet we assume they are true.
If hairstylist is considered an elite profession, what are the ones who build the space stations and asteroid bases and whatnot (like what this guy sold for $600,000+)?

Would you share do you use gmail email in fb and is export successfull?
I'm planning to get it done next year. Can you please share the name of the clinic? My email address is in my profile.
The counterargument is that real estate is potentially an opportunity cost. Instead of purchasing real estate, that money could be used to grow your "core competency", e.g. opening more stores, expanding into other cities, etc.
Totally agree that sync taking so long is really bad execution on CC's part, totally disagree with the entitled hyperbole.

And the most irritating thing of all is the "sync is a solved problem" armchair architect knee-jerk responses. If you really believe that then you're happy with half-assed, poor user experience solutions that aren't tailored to specific data.

Admittedly not quite as "hackery" as a Hacker News entry perhaps should be, but damned interesting, and featuring a scenario I think most people recognize all too well.
Considering that their "core" is a bunch of code that was ripped off of QEMU, I don't see the creation of "extension packs" as a mechanism to be more attractive to open source developers. What would be attractive is contributing their changes back into the upstream project.
If you read the paper, you are correct. It states that after surveying the people taking the test, that they came to the conclusion people just answered, hoping to get access to tasks as fast as possible.

Also, the paper says 1658 passed, but probably only 79 passed with > 90% accuracy?
I think part of this DRM scheme is to make the process that you describe fail.
They can always sell it when the price is higher and lease it back.
I'm going. I'll make a blog post about it and provide a link.

I heard about it because I signed up for the MITEF's mailing list (I was a member a few years ago). They often have some very good events. The events can be a little expensive for students since the organization is somewhat targeted at alums and faculty. But, I'd recommend following them.

If you don't want to be on their mailing list, they have a Twitter news feed: https://twitter.com/mitentforum
Which action movie did you just walk in from? If you progress from bar fight to attempted murder like this what happens is people pull you off the guy, the police come, you get arrested. That's if you're lucky.
It probably approximates Linus's typical workload, which I imagine involves constant compiling and testing while compiling. He's probably still CPU bound.

This is about the best advice out there. I got glassed in a barfight in Sydney once and the cat who did it knew what he was doing—snuck up behind me, shouted, glassed, kicked me a few times, and ran out the door. Fucking English backpackers.

Anyway, the key is almost always surprise and making sure you finish the job to the point that you know you can escape without giving the guy a chance to get a shot at you.

//edit:

Just reread the article, and if you're facing two people DON'T fucking get into a corner. Move around so that one of them is blocking the other as much as possible and they can't both get to you. And stay the fuck off the ground.
only women were affected. Facebook's got several anti-woman policies (for example banning pictures of breast-feeding, and prohibiting domestic violence survivors from using pseudonyms) but in this case they're blaming a bug. it would be it would be interesting to hear more about what the actual issue is.
> Presumably the point of such a request is to set some sort of precedent that would protect the current administration from similar suits?

No, the reverse -- if an explicit ruling is needed to protect past administration officials from a lawsuit, this suggests that such a lawsuit has merit and standing. That would be the precedent, and it's significant.
> Let me ask you this: say you want to check for guns and explosives before people get on an airplane. How do you do it?

Do you really think that's a hard question? You just literally look for guns and explosives, and if you don't find any, there aren't any.
Even more frustrating than what you said (which is very frustrating) - Having already learned ember or backbone or whatever last year, I need to revisit it, or want to use it in my current project because it fits nicely. Or rather it used to. Turns out that in making it better (for whatever the "it" is) they changed fundamental bits on you, in such a way that you basically have to learn another new framework.

Heaven forbid you go back and maintain the stuff written with the old version of the framework...
I'm sure Parse has a great team at it's disposal, but once they were purchased by Facebook I wrote them off completely. Absolute last company I want to trust with the system critical infrastructure for my apps is Facebook.
> VB6 does not autodeclare global variables when you forget to type "var".

Nor does JavaScript... "use strict";

Being what it is, JavaScript has come on a long way. Saying "avoid this specific feature" does make a language better. The same can be said about specific features of JavaScript (with, eval) but I'm sure you wouldn't make the same argument.

The fact seems to be that people are stuck in their ways and hate on JavaScript because they don't know the language as well they could and they haven't kept up to date with the evolving standards.
The fact that there are even people in this thread defending this procedure is incomprehensibly disgusting.
Crypto wars...Given the Republican's have never met a national security bill that they didn't like...

Have we forgotten that republicans were on the right side of crypto war 1 and the first patriot act (aka joe biden's omnibus antiterrorism act)?

(Not that I think they will be on the right side for round 2, just pointing out the inaccuracy...)
I think I understand, and agree. Government should strive to be inclusive in their objectives, and not exclusive. It creates an entirely different landscape when government is dependent upon the people and vice-versa.
I immediately knew it was Ultimate Bulletin Board when I read the first sentence of the second paragraph.
His complaint isn't about not seeing mutating values each iteration, but that he can't see them at all. It's very common to want to know what's in the surrounding code, especially in the giant, incompletely specified and documented lumps of software characteristic of Java.
Very good point. I can imagine someone not thinking about that when using this lib.

All types of shenanigans could potentially be had with this though. I personally would not like installing an app with this lib.

One aspect of "picking your battles" is choosing battles that are win-able. The case against Advertising ID is much easier to make than location tracking. Advertising ID can fall under the scope of ePD (ePrivacy Directive), not just GDPR, and the ePD is more strict and does not have the same allowance for balancing competing interests.

Schrems is definitely strategic about the battles that he fights. He's been waging this war for close to a decade now. He puts a value on precedent, and will take on more clear-cut-but-lower-stakes cases to help build case law towards the higher-stakes cases later.
I see this more as an interesting test of the "post-2000 wto protest" black-flag anarchist cohort. Will this particular "strange and radiant machine" make the world a better place?
Machiavelli in Context is amazing Audiobook/Great Courses, that points out this exact thing.

The Prince is most famous but certainly Discourses on Livy is his biggest work.
It's also terrible to overdo it. Had a coworker having issues with 4GB on a project and he bumped it to 16GB (on a 32GB MBP) which resulted in epicly long GC pauses.
1961 the US had ICBM’s and large numbers of vastly more powerful Hydrogen bombs and very accurate targeting methods. In 1950 the US was still limited to long range bombers, many or even most of which would get shot down and so they would have concentrated on the most critical military targets.

Thus, even 10 million dead in 1950 seems very high unless they simply tried to maximize civilian casualties which it’s self would reasonably qualify as genocide. And again Russia lost ~27 million people in WWII and it isn’t considered a genocide of Russia so numbers alone while horrific don’t qualify.
You are running Xwayland not wayland.
People tend to run ```mvn clean verify``` because Maven caching is unreliable, and lead to build failures.

However, Bazel cache is a lot more robust, so you almost never do clean build. The only time I had to perform a clean build was when I accidentally upgraded my C++ compiler and broke the cache.
Personally, I think this type of thing falls into what I like to call the "all problems are management problems" category.

If a TSA agent deports someone simply because the machine recommended it, then that is a problem. But if a TSA agent deports someone simply because they were having a bad day, then that is also a problem.

I guess I don't care what tools those in authority are using (their intuition or a mechanical intuition or a database lookup), but what I care about is whether or not innocent people without the ability to navigate an appeal system are being erroneously penalized.

And ultimately, it's the responsibility of management to make sure that the people/tools they assign are doing a good job. If they fail, then management needs to find new people/tools. If management fails to do that, then all the AI regulation in the world isn't going to do much good.
That only describes why you shouldn't use them for sessions, not why you should not use them at all.
What's a factor?

Sounds like just another manager.
I don't really understand why this is newsworthy, so maybe someone could help me understand. It's a big, power hungry desktop CPU with incremental performance gains over the last generation.

Why is this important? Is there some kind of architectural breakthrough these CPUs are using? Are these CPUs recovering performance lost to Spectre/Meltdown mitigation?
I'm sticking them all in a Postgres database with CloudFlare in front as a caching proxy. Hetzner gives me 3 TB of bandwidth per month, so I expect that to last me a long time.

If CloudFlare hates my usage and I get enough users to make $50/mo, I'll buy a dedicated Hetzner server which comes with a 3 Gbit connection, which will hopefully mean that bandwidth still isn't a problem (or just pay CloudFlare).
I understand that, what I’m trying to understand is if there’s a claim being made that such machinery is especially desirable in this circumstance... is this claimed to be “the way you have to do it in pure languages” or “a really nice way of doing it, which is enabled by language purity”?

But in general "Ripper" was 19th century slang for a murderer.
Not yet. It's part of the RFP spec that was written by USDS in the contracting phase. Unfortunately the language is non-binding so it wasn't introduced at Go-live for the new rec.gov site. It's in good faith that a booking piece will come, and much of the details need to be negotiated between govt, Booze, and 3rd parties since it is uncommon (unprecedented?) to have startups accepting payments on behalf of the federal govt (and in effect, on behalf of the treasury). Implementation details, revenue and commission details, etc are all to be worked out; the most important thing is that all parties get a fair shake (i.e. terms for one 3rd party extend to all 3rd parties so it's an open system instead of a closed partnerships-driven system). So far I've been impressed by the open communication of the Booze team and all signs point to their being good faith actors.

Note: If anyone has examples of startups accepting payments on behalf of the government please include them here. It helps with research. (Tax filing companies are the ones that come to mind... looking for other examples.)
They let you answer the question "did some other machine I trust find this entity to be a valid user, having this identity and the rights they assert they have?" without asking that machine directly or storing anything about the user. More or less. Provided the keys haven't leaked, of course.

The chief difficulty this introduces is manually invalidating tokens. You end up having to store some data and/or ask some other system questions about users (blacklist-related, in either case) after all, reducing the initial benefit. But distributed sessions will run into similar problems anyway.

Basically if your auth lives the same place as all parts of your application the user will ever see, don't bother with it because the benefit is little to none, otherwise, JWT's a solid maybe.
I don't think there is anything particularly brilliant.

There's Category Theory for Computing Science by Barr and Wells (http://www.case.edu/artsci/math/wells/pub/ctcs.html), which is a good enough book but hardly comprehensive.

I don't know any way round the fact that category theory is difficult to learn. I think that's partly inherent in the subject, not helped by the lack of a really good textbook suitable for beginners.

(Here is the totality of my published work in category theory: http://arxiv.org/pdf/math/0604542v3)
Would you have to pay a royalty every time you used the word?

My last name is a trademark, and part of another trademark. I don't have any problems as long as I don't try using it to sell juice. Or medical equipment.

There was a kid a few years ago called "Mike Rowe", though, who got in trouble by putting up a web page and calling it "MikeRoweSoft".
In all honesty that is the worst way to get any input. A few details would be nice? What have you currently implemented? Do you yourself see any flaws? What are you trying to achieve? What are your similarities to a resource like pingdom? How do you differ? What kind of input do you want?
Reasonable people thought that the ocean (without america, there would be no separate atlantic and pacific ocean) was considerably smaller than it really is, not least due to the impossibility to reliably measure longitude, so they vastly overestimated the east-west extension of eurasia. Just look at the globes Behaim made in 1491-1493 (based on data by Pope Sixtus IV) which shows a really small ocean: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martin_Behaim#The_Erdapfel

According to the best contemporary data, the investment would have been highly speculative (as all voyages across the sea), but not insanely so.
