> except for the analog hole

It's a pretty big hole, and it's practically impossible to seal. Which is why I don't think we'll ever see "game over" for piracy, no matter how advanced DRM technology becomes.

At this point, I think censoring the internet is the only way for the movies/music industry to win. Sadly this isn't so far fetched.
I think the key to the success of Java's flavor of OO is providing an efficient implementation of dynamic function dispatch. This is the core feature, without it, OO would be useless.

The same feature can easily be achieved in functional languages (including javascript), but its performance doesn't scale well at all.

This is the case even in javascript: attaching dynamic functions to object instances performs significantly worse than relying on a prototype chain.

When a function is defined in the prototype chain, it's defined once and shared across all instances.

In Java, when you have a reference to an abstract class, and you call `object.method(args..)`, you don't know which function is being called. It's somewhat like if you have a function pointer/reference and called `method(object, args...)`.

Java lets you do this without losing all the benefits of static type checking.
> there are virtually no legit hidden services

Sorry what? No wonder you got shot down with your TOR suggestion you appear to know nothing about it.
That's exactly the kind of tool I'd love to see in 2015. Not only but in particular for Haskell development. nix seems to gain traction to set up your dev environment, but it's still pretty clunky to use at this point.
such thing will just make it easier for government agencies to identify both users and hidden services via traffic analysis, so it's unlikely to be implemented.

On the other hand both hidden services, and directories can perform a similar thing.
Hidden Services can choose which directories they want to publish their address and identifiers too, this is part of the TOR HS protocol.

Directories can augment any request they get from the user and return what ever value they want, this is how you can cause effective DoS of the TOR network (or any other DHT implementation that does not enforce it's agency over core services) with very small resource investment.
Right now it works off of your contacts in your phone, but we're adding more ways to find and invite your friends like Facebook, GMail, etc. Your close friends are most likely already in another social network, and since they're open, it should be easy to cultivate that data.

We will expand beyond iPhone to every platform as quickly as we can within reason. On that note, we're hiring! http://gotreehouse.com/jobs

One of our biggest challenges will be how to fuel adoption and overcome the initial hump. We know it will take time but we are very confident in what we're building, and we'll keep iterating on ways to make it extremely easy to get your friends involved.

Once a user has 5 of their friends active, engagement takes a big leap.

There's another article that talks more about the general space/problems here: http://social.venturebeat.com/2010/06/15/treehouse-facebook-...
No no, you have it all wrong. Jason said he doesn't know anything about SEO and just happens to accidentally stumble on all the techniques (then apologizes but doesn't stop using them).
Thanks for commenting there! I agree with you, he'sd oing nothing wrong. I acted irrationally :(

Hm, I couldn't find a price list for DIDs starting at 17 cents. Where is that? It seems like the only way to get a quote is to use that request-a-quote form.

I believe you really don't want to do that though, last time I checked Fossil generated HTML from C, either directly or getting it out of the sqlite db.
Well... it's in their terms, isn't it? What is the news here?
What I do not understand, it is known that sleep deprivation leads to similiar effects as beeing drunk. So can these people actually do anything non trivial in the 23h shifts? Or is it so easy you can do it on autopilot? Or do mistakes not matter?
And after they had their share of that life style they start writing books and blogs on what is the meaning of life.
> Tiny amounts literally cannot be settled in minutes.

Your right. It wouldn't be worth $1T now if that was true. It certainly wouldn't be worth $1T if the you could only do 7 bitcoin transactions per second. With the addition of the ligthning network transacting Bitcoin happens in milliseconds, with an unlimited number in parallel and the fee is well under a a cent right now.

Why Mastercard announced they were moving into Bitcoin is mystery of course. But I can't help wondering if the cost of a lightning transaction where they control the nodes compared the cost of trip a debit card takes (customer bank --> customer master card --> merchant terminal --> merchant bank) passing through the sticky fingers of two banks, was a factor.
On amazon it's marked as sold out, at least for me. Is that a fact or is that some market area thing?

If sold out, will it be available again soon?

Edit: refreshed and it's there again!
This might be a fair assumption from a birth statistics viewpoint, but completely misses immigration.

I met a lot of brilliant people from all over the world during my undergrad at TU Munich; many of them stayed. Google, Apple, Microsoft have expanded rather aggressively over the past years, and the startup scene is growing. Berlin, Hamburg, Frankfurt seem to follow suit.

Granted, it's much less likely (and also less politically incentivized) to become a "millionaire employee", but I guess ultimately, the correlation between wealth and wellbeing is simply weaker in (northern) European economies? As long as immigration policies don't change (and why would they? the current model aligns well with lobby incentives), I don't see much reason for this to change.

Also, Poland, Romania, Bulgaria, Spain, and Greece have a different political and economic history than Germany, France, Denmark, Sweden, etc.
A bit of feedback on accessibility. I tried the 'Hello' template and added a form component (the 'Let's get in touch!' one). It misuses placeholders as labels and the field text is in an extremely light grey against a white background - not just the placeholder text, when I'm typing in them too. It's nigh-on impossible to read, with a contrast ratio of 1.33:1 (WCAG requires 4.5:1).

Do you run accessibility tests on the templates and on the tool itself?
The article misses important details such as water temperature and the height of waves.
I always thought it erroneous when people say somebody "has the genes to be a great X" but made nothing of it. The ability to actualize those genes, itself, requires good genes for "executing" (motivation, discipline etc..). So if somebody is lazy, but with "great genes", then those genes are in fact not great.

Yeah, I agree the Dolby headphone tech isn't quite right. But the Creative one has really impressed me over the years. I've even panic muted my speakers before when I was wearing my headphones because I thought I forgot to switch outputs.

I think a lot of the comments here are good - but a thing to keep in mind with github is that their free repo hosting is by default - public. Which means that your code is indexed and searchable - by anyone visiting github including anonymous users. They do give you free private repos if you are a college student or professor.

I am a big advocate of self hosting - not because services like github suck (in fact I'm a big fan of github, bitbucket and other services) but you have more control over your own code (that and you can setup private repos).

Here is a small list of self hosted solutions (I forked indefero into srchub - many don't like the google code feel but I personally like it for the simplicity and the fact I can easily fix/modify/add on to it):

Also, I just finished reading REAMDE, and Fold.it is extremely similar to the fictional APPIS discussed in the book. It's still a fairly untapped area, looking to games in order to gain real life advantages. Although besides Fold.it, ReCaptcha, DuoLingo and the ESP game seem to be using related strategies to yield results of some degree.
I've demoed the DK1 and DK2 to countless friends and family, but it was only with the GearVR that people started saying things like, "Wow, I just saw the future. These are going to be everywhere..."

I wasn't excited about Mobile VR, but the experience of freedom from wires and a built-in UI convinced me otherwise. VR might work better with a fast desktop, but VR is far more accessible (and enjoyable at the moment) in mobile form.

By blocking various fingerprint mechanisms you provide the information that you have fingerprint blocking on, which is in itself a data point. Whether that makes it worse to turn it on I don't know - you're removing some data points, but adding more.
That's because the legacy book industry spent decades setting up a market segmentation regime that used hardcover books and the paperback release schedule as price discrimination tools.

How is it any more rational to accept the paperback price for an e-book than it is to accept the hardcover price?

I have a side project called Bukubrow. It's a WebExtension that plugs into Buku, a CLI bookmark manager.

I'm currently rewriting it in PureScript. It's hard to get pure functional programming's foot in the door at work - understandably, the business case against it is reasonable given our employee demographics (i.e. mostly Java devs) - so this is the next best way to learn.

"I am not a lawyer or CPA and this is not legal advice. It is for general guidance only. You should work with an attorney and a CPA for specific professional advice.

If you're American, this gets really sticky. The US taxes you on your worldwide income. If you have a US corporation, it is also taxed on worldwide income, so it can be double taxed. And foreign corporations in the US are taxed on US-sourced income.

However, there is a loophole. If you own a company outside the US, and the company earns money outside of the US, it's only taxed in the US when the money comes back into the US. So, many people have companies registered abroad (Hong Kong is a popular jurisdiction) and money earned offshore is accrued in the foreign corporation. Expenses abroad are also paid by the foreign corporation. So, you can effectively avoid the money being double taxed (paying personal income tax only) if you earn money offshore and your offshore corporation pays your salary.

Also, if you're working abroad, it's not a vacation. A lot of things you spend money on are legitimately considered business expenses. So, if something is a business expense, pay for it with company earnings that haven't been taxed.

Now, what about paying income tax in the jurisdiction where you were living abroad? Typically, countries only tax income sourced within the country, and many countries have tax treaties where income is only taxed once. So, for example, if you're living in China, a country that has a tax treaty with the US, and you're paid by a company outside of China, and you pay taxes in the US, you don't actually have to pay taxes in China. Technically you are supposed to file there (at least in Beijing), but this isn't actually enforced unless you're on a Z-type visa and you are working for a Chinese company. And, if you're on a tourist visa pretty much anywhere in the world, you won't owe any tax in the country you were visiting. As best I know, no country in the world charges tourists income tax!

One thing that WILL happen if you're living abroad, and have foreign bank accounts: You will get audited if you claim tax exemptions that apply when you live outside the US. In my case, this came in the form of a letter to my Chinese address which basically said "prove you're really living in China," and gave me a list of documents to supply as evidence of same. There was a list of 8 or so things, of which I had to supply 3. I just sent the IRS everything on the list (not only 3 of the things, but all of the things), mailed the package from Beijing, and I never heard from them again. I think they just wanted to make sure I really was living abroad."

This does not answer my question. The material in the first book is all well-known. A standard reference is Reed and Simon's Methods of Modern Mathematical Physics. Categories don't gain you anything there, and in any case it's tangentially relevant to most work in harmonic analysis and probabiility. The second book is not relevant at all.

Just because you can produce books on analysis where someone uses the word "category," does not mean a working mathematician ought to care.
I did in college. If your tax situation is nontrival it can take a very long time and has lots of room for error. I made a mistake and owed a $200 penalty for it back then. Software walks you through it and automates all of the arithmetic, number copying, and prevents fat finger errors.
I've been running multiple services through podman on a pi without any issues. Certainly not the same as production though.

Layer caching seems to work for me. Note that rootless stores images (and everything else), in different place from rootfull. It may be that you're caching the wrong directory.
So PHD in computer science, wrote programming books still recommended by very smart people 30 years after the fact, launched, ran and sold successful startup, and now successful VC is... ordinary? People like Peter Norvig say "On Lisp" is one of the best books on lisp! I'm in the software acquisition business, so I talk to founders getting ready to exit every month. That set of combined successes is most emphatically not ordinary.
Nocebo effect is proven for vaccines. Even if we inject salted water: many will develop fevers, arm pain, headaches, nausea, ... (because they expect such symptoms). In some cases, as many as 90% of observed side effects are nocebo. i.e. if 100 people get the real vaccine and 100 people get salted water, 10 will get side effects on the first group, 9 will get the same side effects on the control group.
You do understand this wrong! The message is that any startup/company not in the valley will have a hard time finding employees.
Until now every company paid a salary fitted for the locale the company is in: You are in an area with a low cost of living you are paid a lower salary than elsewhere.

But from now on you can get the inflated valley salaries from everywhere. They are so high because cost of living is very high and competition with other companies too.

But from now on your potential new employees can choose to work for your local company or some fang company for a much higher salary. And many companies will not be able to pay these high salaries.

There is a world outside of investor money burning valley startups and the most profitable software companies on the world. And they may have a big problem now.
Hi, IT auditor here.

Sometimes 'we' ask * instead of "gimme everything that starts with a number" because we may need to check that the column "ID" which is supposed to be a 10-digit number, may have an entry "A1234567890". And this has not raised any alarms. And this means that this human is not paying taxes, because his/her tax-ID is not 'run' when the gov runs the tax calculations, because the script pulls 10-digit numbers, and my ID has a letter. So some DBA got paid $50k, changed my field, run the thing, change back my field. If you think this is not happening, it is.

Consider other scenarios on obligations like that.

I once did a KYC audit for a bank. When I asked * , I laughed and cried with the results.

Soooooooooo.. yes, very click bait-y title. Each SELECT should fit the purpose it serves for the report reader. When doing KYC and you have to review 5mil clients, you want *, otherwise you will miss the: Surname: 123Smith!!!, DoB: 30/2/1980, and other duplicates, nasty surprises, people over 150yo, etc.
Authors addendum: This post was a mistake on my part. Please downvote this post. Thank you! I would rather have a retract option, but there is none here on HN.

Original post:

Apologies to you on behalf of people who made you feel uncomfortable.

Full disclosure:

I had (still have?) negative biases/sentiments/stereotypes towards Americans: being ignorant, self-absorbed, reckless, careless etc.

And this almost made me have a knee-jerk reaction to the expressed desire to make the content in question available in English. As if I am tired of you Americans Americanizing everything you touch[2]. This sentiment is also expressed in Ramstein's song "Amerika"[3].

But that's why it is called a "stereotype". I shouldn't stereotype a population of +300 m out of a small sample size (that includes YouTube/Twitter too). I lose a lot of potential good/bad experiences if I continue to do that. And even if, for the sake of the argument, 90% match my silly stereotype, I still should have an optimistic modus operandi.
Pessimism/cynicism is a counterproductive trait. You should be an optimist[1].

But putting all that aside, what makes you think that the inquirer is an American? He could be a French person knowing Japanese and Russian besides English.

Anyhow, we shouldn't follow protectionist policies. Nothing good comes out of that. We should be thankful/appreciative to people who are willing to share content with others (open source, creative commons, etc.).

Officially, on the employment contract, the salary is shown before-tax, but after mandatory pension and healthcare deductions.

However, in the negotiations, in casual conversation, and when you're hearing someone talking about their salary in the media, it's always discussed after taxes. Most people have no idea how much tax (or health insurance) they're actually paying.
