If you default on home mortgage they don't get to
sue you, and seize the money from your bank account. Also if you die, the government does not pay off that debt.
Only in the sense that F = M * A is a tautology.
When something is being custom-made for you, it's entirely normal to pay at least part of the total up front. I could just as well ask you, why should friends have to provide financing, as you seem to suggest should be the norm?
I'm surprised nobody has mentioned anything to do with the structure of the internet. Suppose someone takes out all of the root DNS servers or the bgp system breaks down, or something similar. Even though there might not be any loss of life, this could cause tremendous amount of damage in other areas.
Depends on your definition of default. Since the dollar is a fiat currency there is essentially no chance of the US government skipping an interest or principal payment. However, it seems highly likely that they will attempt to orchestrate some steady devaluation of the dollar to reduce the value of the debt in real terms. The high impact event would be if they mismanage the devaluation and accidentally introduce high (or hyper) inflation for some period of time before they can get things under control. Check out the history of inflation and interest rates in the 1970's to see what this might look like.

Even if there's no big market for fast food veggie burgers, Burger King sells a pretty decent one. Not always on the menu, but I've found them even in rural Alabama.

Are you aware of alternatives to RFID that avoid the risk of being jammed?

I have trouble believing Armatix would develop a version targeted at law enforcement without taking that into consideration.
The court would consider many factors in concert, not just one. Therefore it is impossible to answer this question with a simple yes or no. And someone will eventually show up and recommend that you hire a lawyer.

TL;DR: Nobody knows. You're screwed.
How are you fetching the prices?
Seems like it would have been worth it.
It's more than deception. 17 U.S.C. § 506(c) prescribes criminal penalties for fraudulent copyright notices.
Decorators typically use closures (including in this case), but they're really just syntax sugar for transforming one function into a different one with the same name. This code:

@d
def foo():
...

is equivalent to this code:

def foo():
...
foo = d(foo)

(You should think of a Python "def" statement as an action that creates a function and assigns it to a variable, like "foo" in this case. Since functions are first-class values, they can be sent into other functions and assigned again, which is why this works.)

But yeah, if you're implementing a decorator (a function from function to function, like "d" above), you can declare an inner function and immediately return it, and that inner function will act as a closure (it will have access to variables in the outer scope). You can take that approach in other situations as well, not just with decorators.
Crazy. So in the name of "freedom", these gun-nuts want to deprive other people of the freedom to buy a safer gun if they want. I really wish they'll find a way to sell it anyway.

PS to all the gun-nuts dowvoters: Thanks for showing how you really value freedom.
The Berne copyright convention states that all content is copyright by default - so no, there's no need to include a copyright claim on anything if all you want to do is make sure you're covered.
probably no worse off than deceiving viewers that the content hasnt been updated since the 90s cause someone forgot to change the copyright footer.
we tried to do this. Is it not working for you?
I like the idea, I love random people. Definitely agree that people more aligned with my tastes feels more productive. But spending time with strangers and just asking things like how do they view things and do they do can lead to many opportunities and improvements in your ideas.

Additionally randomly hanging out with people is sort of like Social Bread-first search versus Depth-first search. If you think about it it actually increases the opportunities you have by knowing by definition a larger 'breadth' of people.

Good luck guys.
If you're at the playground with your kid, you should not be playing chess. You should be paying attention to your kid.

I really enjoy reading Conals work. This paper is a particularly good example of how denotational semantics can guide the design of a library - http://conal.net/blog/posts/paper-beautiful-differentiation/
>Security for Elasticsearch is now free

What a horrific title. Even simply typing that should have been a blinking neon sign to them that they had their priorities in the wrong order.
People who can be expected to experience increased distress from the topic are much more likely to choose to avoid it, so I'm not surprised in the least by that association.

Also from the article:

> critics argue that the avoidance of potentially upsetting material is actually a counterproductive approach because it offers no chance to learn to manage one’s emotional reactions.

This is wrong. You don't learn to manage emotional reactions by being forced to consume triggering content. If you have a problem with emotional reactions that needs adjustment, that's what therapy is for. Or using delaying tactics such that you don't consume the content until you're more prepared to handle it. Anyone who thinks springing triggering content on people without warning is good because it forces them to react to it is literally abusive.

And many times avoiding triggering content forever is perfectly fine and doesn't need to be managed. Personally, I don't have any trauma around rape but I would really prefer to avoid reading about it, so I really appreciate trigger warnings on content that includes it. This isn't something that needs to be "fixed", there's no reason why I must work towards being indifferent towards rape.
I've lived here 10 years, and its everywhere now. You can see this with your eyes, or if you don't trust what you see, you can see it in the city provided data of homeless living on the streets. Its up 17% over the last 2 years (measured every 2 years)
It interesting to me when I see people passionate about google killing a service.

If you’re that passionate and people will miss the service, then that sounds like a business opportunity to me.

Just because it’s not revenue positive (enough) for google, doesn’t mean it couldn’t support a smaller start up.
Probably unrelated. These security researchers found this open database, it doesn't necessarily mean someone else found it.
1. I know the cops do the light thing simply by knowing a few cops.

2. I don't know where they are dispactched or anything. I could tell the difference between sirens though.

3. I know not all dispatches are emergencies that need lights, sounds, or running lights. If someone has broken into your business, for example, and the person is no longer there, there is no need for speed, lights, and so on. I'm in a larger city in another country now... and there are less sirens and stuff here. It is really weird. I know they respond and the crime rate is probably lower, but... priorities are different as well. I generally didn't see the same patterns with fire trucks and ambulances in the states, and honestly never had a complaint about them. Just the police.

Edited to add an afterthought.
Where's the section saying "so get rid of your SOAP WS already OK?" That would be lovely!
Capital is only one of the things a founder brings in - a point of view and skills are others. The legal profession could be missing out on avenues of innovation by requiring a founder to be a lawyer.
Could you cite what part of the paper you're talking about? Since it's now public[0], it's fairly easy to verify what you're talking about. The word "woke" doesn't appear in the paper.

If I'm interpreting your argument correctly, I think you're criticizing either section 4.1 Size Doesn’t Guarantee Diversity, or section 4.2 Static Data/Changing Social Views. But your criticisms don't track with either of those sections. 4.2 seems the best fit (since they discuss keeping models up to date with modes of communication). The claim made in the paper seems to be that an LM trained today will fail to keep up with shifts in language (and these can happen quickly, in months, not years in many contexts). This is true whether the context is "woke vocabulary" whatever that means, reclaimed slurs (such as "queer"), or memetic slang/shibboleths ("kek" or "do you listen to girl in red"). I don't see anyone saying that language models or designers are required to agree with "woke vocabulary". The closest I can come is the authors suggesting that models which fail to stay up to date with shifts in vocabulary (including, I guess, woke vocabulary) will be less effective. That seems trivially true. Can you clarify?

How can people be so good at making money, but yet so clueless about OPSEC?

> But after the police knocked on the door on the weatherboard home in June, McIvor handed them the key codes to unlock more than $6m worth of various cryptocurrencies.

Ummm, why would he do that? Was he perhaps hoping that they'd go away if he just gave them the money?

> Detective Senior Sergeant Keith Kay, the head of the Asset Recovery Unit in the Waikato, said his team became involved after a tip from the Inland [sic] Revenue Service in the United States.

> The IRS had received "Suspicious Activity Reports" from PayPal, the online payment service, which tax officials traced to McIvor in New Zealand.

> ...

> The money was allegedly deposited into his bank accounts from international wire transfers, PayPal, and another online payment service called Stripe.

I can't imagine how anyone could think that would work out well.
Well, that just looks like a bug then.

I think the concern is mostly about what Slack was actually trying to achieve.
I have the same exact bag, had it for about 3 years. Still great. Got inspired by Mr. Robot and had to get one.
He has a book out with the co-author of this piece, Ernest Davis. This is probably part of the promotion of the book. The book title and subject is listed at the end of the article and the two authors of the article are listed as the book's authors.
I have a couple of PW2s installed, connected via ethernet only (isolated on its own VLAN, though Tesla is total garbage about basics like "what firewall rules are needed"), no cellular here either. But the TEG-$(SERIAL){3} network has always been right there anyway, which is just really lazy design. I happen to be physically far enough away from anyone else that it's very unlikely to be a security issue in practice, but it's still unnecessarily polluting WiFi even beyond that. This has been noticeable for a long time too, it's not hard to find threads going back a long ways with people asking how to disable the gateway WiFi, ie., ( https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/disable-gateway-wifi... ), or people speculating about the obvious vuln/interference implications. From that thread back in June:

>It would be nice to find a way to turn off the TBG's WiFi hotspot. I already have too many WiFi hotspots in my area for my taste. TBG's broadcasting WiFi is just a exploit waiting to happen.

The whole thing is genuinely perplexing. Dependence on WiFi, while regrettable, I guess can sometimes make sense from a "user friendly" perspective for a lot of typical consumer installed gear. But the PowerWalls are absolutely not consumer installable, nor obviously in any way inherently wireless. They represent serious electrical infrastructure, and require professional installation with a lot of run cable. Adding in some shielded cat 5 or whatever along with that is frankly trivial for multi-thousand/ten-thousand dollar professional projects, even when not dealing with people who can do a drop themselves.

Minimizing attack area is really trivial security, and here it's got other bonuses like just being more reliable. The entire IOT space is full of shit of course, but it seems much stranger in this instance to me than something like lightbulbs. And why even have passwords at all for access versus using keys? None of this is supposed to be generally accessible anyway. It's not like this would cost Tesla anything extra.

Edit to add: HOSTNAME INCLUDES THE FULL SERIAL. I thought I'd take a second look at this and just pulled up the client info for the PW2 Gateway on my network, and hostname is 11XXXXX-00-J--S$(SERIAL). So no local physical access is required, the gateway itself just broadcasts the whole serial, which in light of this is an, interesting, decision. I can confirm that using the hostname with an added S at the front (so on mine serial was T[...], I used the password ST[...]) I was able to connect to the WiFi spot, and in turn to the management page described. Incredible.

Incidentally DPI is also kind of wacky now that I look, just running a simple Suricata setup but connections are all over the place (why is YouTube showing up?). About 4.5 GB down and 9 GB up, down I assume would be updates of some kind, up monitoring data though that seems like a significant amount for what should generally be text. I haven't had it that long, must be kind of chatty.
> "Responsible disclosure" is an invention of vendors who want you conforming to their policies and timeline

No it’s not. It’s an invention of ethical hackers and academic security researchers who are mature enough to realize that dropping 0-days to the public is worse for society than giving the vendor a reasonable opportunity to fix it.

“Economics of information security” is a field that publishes some studies about vulnerability disclosure strategies and maximizing the social good.
TFA makes it clear that the SSID is derived from the serial number and the SSID is being broadcast openly.
Similar things have been said about Chinese numbering.
This is absolutely true, and the blog post itself definitely has a little of that "picking on Tesla" vibe. And I think it's unfair too.

But at the same time, this is pretty genuinely bad security architecture, and it really needs to be exposed and embarrass the company that did it. Tesla does some great stuff. This thing seems a little mailed-in, though.
It was a lot sooner for me than 4 years, it was only about 3 months when I asked her during a phone call whether it was worthwhile me waiting for us to get back together again. She said 'No'. So it was like a switch being flicked. I moved on past there.

Mind you, your ex-wife has more or less said the same thing to you by actually getting the divorce already.

Face it. It's over. She doesn't (can't !!) matter to you any more. Turn the page. Burn your bridges. Step out the back, Jack. I was 42 when I had to start again. Let me tell you that old saying is correct: "Life begins at 40!."

You need to work on your lowish self-esteem. It's what's telling you that there can't be anybody else after her. But yes there can.
Read up on some books regarding how couples split up. A good one for me (but 30 years ago) was a book called 'Passages' by Gail Sheehy, which explained what mental and emotional changes occur in people as they get older and go through the various stepping-stones of life. I was able to see why my wife left me too. And also to understand that the marriage break-up wasn't all my fault but was due to both of us.

Oh, my story? Almost exactly 12 months later I moved in with a woman who I later married. We've been together now for 34 years.
You can't look online and find info from more knowledgeable people on whether the Honda Civic is a good car?
Yep. Fear of failing a technical interview keeps me from applying to places and keeps me learning new stuff, but I wouldn't want a job that I could talk myself into.
Isn't foreman the same as team lead? IMO It is always better to have a team lead and the article sums up all the issues of an unqualified team lead.
I remember reading your comment on R.Lynch thread. As written before, do you have a paypal account ?
>You need texting (a X dollar/month service) to use the service ... which solves the problem of... expensive texting?

Yes. Because texting in most countries has limits (e.g 200 sms per month, for more you pay an amount per text) while you can use WhatsApp for as many texts as you like.

And texting includes MMS (texting with images, sound etc), which is free in WhatsApp, but costs extra in most countries (can even go like $1 per text or more).
Orinda => Pittsburg is going the same way and on the same line as Walnut-Creek => Pleasant-Hill, Walnut-Creek => Concord and Pleasant-Hill => Concord (the East-bound Pittsburg Bay Point train). There is no need to get off the train in order to swap tickets.

You are of course right though that you can save far more money if you do get off and swap with someone going the opposite way, but then you have to wait for another train. If you already get off the train in order to transfer (say you commute from Pittsburg to Fremont), then swapping cards with someone going the opposite direction is easy.
libfreenect will remain open.

PCL and OpenCV will similarly remain open.

The loss of Primesense is the loss of NITE. The only recourse is a team building an open source skeletonization alternative.
I'm not sure I see where the officer had sufficient cause for that warrant. It sounds like the subsequent felony charge was unrelated to the original offense.
"Does Trader Joe's have a habit of hiring local people?"

Yes. They hire locally and train and pay very well. That one store would bring 30-40 jobs paying $40,000 - $60,000 for 'grocers' that stock shelves and run the registers.
yep. Fiber is the way to go when you need 10Gbit. I was looking in to doing my place with Cat6 or 6a. Not only is 6a incredibly thick (thus, more difficult to run and probably terminate) but you need special tools and knowledge just to make sure the wiring is correct and there are no RF issues going on. It becomes way more about RF crosstalk and science, and less about simple wire connectivity.
And which part of the system is most likely to break down first? I'd hate to have the computer tied to that part.
I like the document style, anyone know if/how this was generated?
Germany is a very easy to entry point for you as a software developer. The market is huge and there is shortage of good candidates. Polish up your linkedin profile and start applying for positions in germany. Good luck!
MBAs teach you a load of useful skills, in particular a great breadth of business problems. HR. Accounting. Strategic planning. International expansion. Supply chain considerations. Micro and macroeconomics. Negotiation. The list goes on.

It doesn't make you experienced, or a leader. But it does give you the essential skills to run a business, that are so diverse that they are hard to acquire organically.

A good MBA is perhaps like a good coding Boot Camp. It will basically teach you enough that you can survive 3 months of a junior dev job, and if you're smart, bootstrap yourself up from that. But if you staff a company with no-one but people from such Boot Camps with no other experience, who will just then resonate against each other, that won't go anywhere.
Ah yes, the three levels of laziness:

- writing new frameworks

- contributing to existing frameworks

- commenting on HN deriding those writing new frameworks

I don't know what the keywords are to Google for the 3rd type, but I suspect the result count would be the highest of all.
I agree with the Scrum Master suggestion, my Scrum Master pretty much just creates meeting invites for 40 hours a week. We have a lot of contracts where we have Scrum Masters just because we do Agile, usually the non-technical types do it.

The irony is that Scrum Masters are supposed to not make the team reliant on them but by having a dedicated role for it of course the dev team will make the Scrum Master do menial tasks, if you don't might dealing with the Agile bullshit full time it's a doss.
>Is it fine in Germany?

Yes.
If you follow the news in general there's been a concerted effort to remove white men from positions of power (with very few exceptions). And Google has been - for a while now - one of the poster children for this agenda.

Sundar Pichai, for instance, I believe, was chosen not just because of his browser endeavours' success, his background etc, but because he could help break into the indian market (remember that these tech companies have been eager to get into and dominate the Next Billion Users market [India, China, et al]). It was actually a smart move, IMHO.

Mark Zuckerberg is going to be a tough one to get rid of because he completely controls Facebook. But the media have been doing everything they can to get at him (privacy issues, etc). I mean, it's not that the media aren't right (about some of the issues I'm aware of), but it's the best play they can do at the moment. But this Facebook, or rather, social media and media fight is a whole 'nother and different story despite sharing some variables with this topic.
ah, thanks for shedding light.

yes it's my own opinion and I don't consider myself to be an authority on these other subjects, so my only tools are intuition or trying to piggyback on people I think (or was told) are authorities. (but both are blunt tools since if I can't judge the subject my trust in others who I think know those things is equally questionable)
Did you try just... not following the outrage parts? Not getting outraged? If you want to spend more time connecting with people you care about, getting rid of facebook feels like throwing the baby out with the bathwater.
Revaalo is thriving at becoming the leader in the user generated content space and is working towards making the content more accurate every day
what do people see and remember!? UI!!

This is how most software purchase/development decisions are made, especially those with multi-million dollar consequences.
My guess would be that 4chan is somehow DDOSing itself, in pursuit of some subtle poetic irony outsiders like us simply could not understand.
Well, at least nobody can accuse them of not having a sense of humor; from their status page: "We now join the ranks of MasterCard, Visa, PayPal, et al.—an exclusive club!" :)

This seems to be comparing apples and oranges. If your goal is fun, build an app. If your goal is money and freedom, build a business. Sure one _might_ morf into the other, but if you have a goal, work towards it, don't just hope to stumble into it.
While we are here, let me know if you have any questions about the contest. Happy to help!
It's a clever way of analyzing USB without requiring additional hardware (if you already have a DSO). That's pretty interesting to me.
I will second that book. Very well-written, accessible and inspiring.
I think he made a lot of good choices. These days I would pick tmux over screen and newsbeuter over snownews.

ion really was a great and influential window manager, but now, it'd probably be better to pick XMonad, awesome, or i3.

vimperator has been a lifesaver for me, but I'm switching to luakit because it doesn't seem to allow flash to steal the keyboard focus.
