DO NOT BUY THIS APP. I have a MBPr (late 2013) and an iPhone 6+, I might understand if I was using older hardware but I'm not. EVERY time I walk away for more than 5 minutes or so the app "forgets" the computer and will not unlock it. If you open the app it wants to walk you through pairing again. I am very disappointed as I paid for pro as well and this does not work as advertised.
> "there is a clear trend among them: the most successful investors are also the most upstanding."

This is also true in many aspects in life. Good people are rewarded, not always, but more often than not deserving people are successful and happy.

I don't think -many- people (outside of the obvious communities) would take umbrage with "white males are often dicks to women in business situations" given the preponderance of evidence.
Is more than 100k USD somehow exorbitant? I would expect a VP (in Switzerland, no less!) to make at least that much.
I just tried and was unsuccessful at installing it on Firefox for Android. (Fails to install silently after download.)

That said, Ghostery (and for that matter, HTTPS Everywhere) both work great.

Sorry, just tired of the HN crowd (many of whom hope to create and sell products to people for money) freaking out any time a blogger links to something where they'll make a few pennies if someone purchases.

Sounded to me it's more like they're using CDNs for content distribution and Amazon AWS for bulk/batch processing jobs. From the original article:

RLB: Could you describe at a high level what Netflix is doing on AWS?

AC: Encoding movies for streaming, log analysis, production web site and API, most everything that scales with customers and streaming usage. Easier to say what we don’t have there: most internal IT that scales with employee count, legacy stuff, DVD shipping systems, account sign-up and billing systems. We use Akamai, Limelight and Level3 CDN’s for streaming the movies, which is a cloud based service. There is an AWS CDN service, but they aren’t a big enough player in this space at this point.
I agree with most of your points.
However, while I agree that Opera tab stacks are better for grouping than Panorama, they still require a manual effort to arrange them.

Also, expanding the group to view the tabs in that group returns the tab bar to the cramped state where it's difficult to identify tab contents, while a vertical listing alleviates that problem.

Pinned tabs are magical. :)
Doesn't look like rocket science. Also using XML is just... hrmmm

I'm not sure there's anything that technically impressive that came out of wave.
One thing I almost never hear in articles about moving to AWS is the mention of network latency and variability of latency. It seems like a fantastic platform for bulk/batch processing but much less so if your service requires low and/or predictable network latency/response times.
You're not clueless; the answers aren't visible/available.
It works hackless since october: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2014/10/psa-netflix-ubuntu-now-wo...
Can you give an example? It all seems to work fantastically for me in Firefox 34.0.5 on Windows 7. I'm not usually a fan of single page applications, but after digging through this for a while, it seems very nice.
I think it's an ok comparison but remember this is not a normal distribution (I'm not sure what's the actual distribution)

How many people do it in less than 10s?

A lot of people probably do it in more than 20s
It would lead to less safety but more type safety, actually.

> So are those countries that are lawless and violent that way because the citizens are just bad people?

No, it's probably because they have unproductive economies, which of course can be caused by numerous things.
For the same price you can get 4-8GB RAM and 10x the storage on RDS, AWS's managed relational database solution. However, Compose is going for a different performance profile, not the typical CRUD app.
No mention of Pamuk’s Nobel Prize winning novel My Name is Red, which is all about Istanbul and the underrated art form of Islamic miniatures.

I came across this book in a bizarre way, but if I told you, you probably wouldn’t believe me. Let’s just call it a “completely unexplainable coincidence.”

In any case, it’s a really fascinating look at an art form virtually no one in the Western world has heard of, yet played a huge role in the various Turkish, Persian, Mughal/Indian and Arabic empires. All set in 1500s Istanbul. Highly recommended.

One idea from it that has stuck with me: the Ottoman miniaturists criticized Western forms of drawing perspective, as they presented the world from the view of a human being and not from an omniscient God figure’s viewpoint. Hence the top-down viewpoint of most miniatures. I had always associated the progression toward realism as an “improvement” over pre-perspective paintings, but the omniscient viewpoint really makes a lot of sense conceptually.

Or many ills affect the body in more extensive ways than thought. Constipation could be an early warning sign of Parkinson's and other problems, for example, not that you'd be able to tell.

I'm pretty "natural", never had antibiotics and stuff. But I can tell you I've got plenty of problems that can never be fixed by gut bacteria.

Besides, modern lives are anything but natural.
There's almost never harm in trying an elimination diet. Cycle out one major food at a time (eg wheat, eggs, milk, meat, nightshades, seafood), for a couple weeks at a time.

Maybe start gradually introducing fermented "live" foods as a matter of routine.

Worst that happens is you eat more veggies and try out a different diet. And if you find something that helps, all the better.

It's pretty well known now that skin conditions can be related to gut conditions.
I couldn't have raised money without Aaron's help. There's so many people who are willing to offer advice or try to be involved with a raise, but Aaron and Janelle were the only two people who actually helped.

They made great intros, had lots of advice, and were incredibly helpful from start to finish. I remember a few times calling Aaron randomly to get his take on a meeting I had just had, and he was always there to help. Aaron was the only person I trusted... he was on my side and helped when he could, but was also brutally honest when necessary.

Thanks Aaron, and best of luck with whatever is next!
Undefined Behavior.

It adds a runtime sanitizer to detect some (but not all) UB.
So what you are saying is, the police officer should start following that provocateur around on his day off with a camera? Film the guy who is filming the police officers! I like it!
I said "in C". You're talking "in Linux" (or glibc/whatever). Which, as I already said, plays by its own rules and defies C. It's broken by design.
Many of them are part of a standard CS curriculum. Most of them are part of a standard math curriculum. The "level of difficulty" is very uneven, though.

Things like "Many students believe that 1 plus the product of the first primes is always a prime number" (a misunderstandment of Euclid's proof that there exist infinitely many prime numbers) or "If A implies B then B implies A" (difference between a necessary and a sufficient condition) are literally middle-school math.

Things like "If 𝑓(𝑥,𝑦) is a polynomial with real coefficients, then the image of 𝑓 is a closed subset of ℝ" are high-school level.

The top answer about dimensions of vector spaces is a well-known undergraduate-level "trap".

"The Krull dimension of a noetherian integral domain is finite." is, to be brutally honest, not a sentence I understand in the slightest.
It was fun to see this develop into a real app. Lots of cool low poly models have been created with this.
> the overwhelming majority of users

You might be right about current users, but this kind of thing matters a lot if you're going to convince potential future users. Someone who isn't already using Firefox isn't going to have a lot of faith in trying it out if the logo looks like it was done in SodiPodi in mom's basement.
> To the extent it matters I don't know, but I would assume they'd never enhance Firefox or launch any products that enable unsavory speech.

Shame, the internet was built on radical free speech. "The Net interprets censorship as damage and routes around" used to be the ethos.
Graphene is still based on AOSP, right? I'm still hoping for something like postmarketOS where it does not use a android base.
What are you saying? Firefox should stop doing this because no sites have broke for you when blocking the script?
Is there a Mozilla source for this Mozilla news, not just Twitter?
Some people have made some proposals, but it's at an extremely early, if ever, state.
Yes but not all governments are the EU, and not all governments of the EU publish anything, even loss so under copyleft.

Even a government like france which is involved in strong open-washing campaign has serious Microsoft ties behind the scenes (education & military mostly) and despite all the promises for 100% OPEN, keeps on introducing closed-source algorithm which are paid for with millions of euros of public money and whose results are very sketchy to say the least (i'm looking at you ParcourSup).

So, when i said "less friendly to governments", i did not mean from a legal perspective. I meant AGPL is only one expression of a global approach to software development that is focused on user empowerment. Such software is usually less concerned with problems of big organizations (including governments), and less likely to try and reinforce governmental control (which is something most governments are looking for in a product). Does that make sense?
100% huh

I don't think the comparison to fascism is fair, as much as some would like to paint it that way. So many things are different now than in 1989, which is not to say a new system would be perfect, but Americans are inventive and we can improve it. We're not at the end of history.
Oh. Hm, guess April Fools is starting early this year.
I'd be interested to hear that argument.
Orientation events are new in mobile safari as of iOS 4.2. The orientation works on the iPad, for example.
So the punishment is that they basically can't return to their homeland (or likely Europe) without being declared bankrupt?

That's still a fairly hefty penalty. Even if I chose to live elsewhere the idea of never being able to return home without a fairly major sanction would be a bummer.
as long as its limited to the edges of the technical community and not 80% of high school kids, they're more or less "fine" with that
Again, IMHO the definition of stealing supposes that you have deprived the previous owner of something.

I don't think we should use 'stealing' to apply to 'design' or any type of non-concrete property.
Yes, the BBC have a better headline with "Police seek powers ..."
Well, the problem is that first-order theories have an infinite number of theorems, so while one can prove as many theorems using a computer as one likes, there is still nothing to say whether they are of any interest or not. Most results are trivial, and in order to find the interesting ones we would have to go digging through a heap mainly composed of uninteresting ones.

This presumes, of course, that one can tell interesting from uninteresting by examining result statements. I am not certain that this is in fact the case. Our appreciation of the importance of a result stems from our ability to connect it to others; for example, König's lemma allows us to prove completeness and compactness (amongst many other things). If we simply saw it stated in symbolic form, amongst millions of others, would we recognise its importance?

> This sounds a lot like CV-driven development, rather than any actual use cases.

There are plenty of companies ou there that have old COTS lying around and require some sort of IT infrastructure. Being able to setup and manage a working cluster of COTS hardware is a great way to add computational resources to a company without spending au additional cash or having to rubber stamp permits.

I personally have done this in a previous job, and a small POC with minikube turned into a 3-node kubeadm cluster that deployed and managed two company-wide intranet services like a breeze. Zero cash was spent, the only resource used was a few hours of my time, everyone benefitted, and managers were very happy with the result.

To what extend does the "copyright" applies to "derivative work" in software?

I am very interested in the answer because I am writing a derivative of the initial Ward Wiki and I'd rather know to what extend I should ask the permission to Ward Cunningham.

Well... maybe it is actually better to beg for forgiveness than ask for permission...
... so, I added "a tribute to Ward Cunningham" to the homepage of simpliwiki.com . Cause he is the pioner, But I'm a Tweak,

You just perfectly summarized my feelings on the matter; that "Singularity mentality" is kind of creepy.
Having got two brilliant and interesting people like Dawkins and Pinker into one room at the same time, it's a pity they couldn't rustle up anything other than a single, handheld camera. I don't think I'm likely to watch the full 68 minutes, it's making me seasick. Oddly the fact that they're both standing up for the entire video also makes me a bit uncomfortable... why don't you take a seat, guys?

The other problem is that I really get the idea that Dawkins aren't really having a discussion as such, they're just talking back and forth about things they both know perfectly well.

I'm starting to appreciate the traditional style of interview, where the interviewer is ignorant, and thus a better stand-in for the audience.
I don't like timed games much either but in the lower levels and with no time (or time-like) restrictions this seems like a puzzle rather than a "game" to me.

That is, where a puzzle is something that can be "solved" without a time dependency. If I asked you to do 834 + 277 with no time limit, that's a puzzle. If you had to get as close as possible in 5 seconds, that's a game. Thanks for making me think about this though, I could well be wrong, but that's the difference as I see it.
I figure that if the test is at 90% confidence, it usually means we can't really make a really really bad decision going with the favorite. So what if that tiny increase in conversions wasn't really there, I figure its time to move on to another, possibly more lucrative test. Maybe Patrick has a different or more fleshed out opinion on this.
I'm not a Ruby guy, so this might be a stupid question, but: why would you need to run more than a single instance of an app on a given server?
This doesn't look much different from existing frameworks like Express. I wonder what distinguishes the project?
I hate turning everything into a game.

Me too. And for some reason I'm still single...

I have the same process on my site. The reason is that it is such a risky operation that you want to have a human in the middle as a safeguard from accidental deletion.

Account cancellations and so on are automatic of course, but anything that can’t be rolled back requires human input.

Any of those could be arranged with woocommerce / magento / shipstation.
Well, you can model pixels as you wish and you can translate coordinates as you wish, as long as you are consistent with your assumptions. Modelling pixels as points (i.e., delta distributions) instead of squares or other continuous distributions makes everything more prone to aliasing artifacts and is arguably less physically justified, but can sometimes be the right thing.
I can't imagine doing this for the hundreds of passwords in my list, especially when I change some of them regularly.

It could be useful for a master password, though - such as the one that secures my password list. Isn't just remembering a line from a song a little easier? Then you get a password recovery mechanism too, as long as you remember the song, or at least the artist!
Some advice..

He needs to consult with a patient advocate that knows Medicaid procedures. IT will be frustrating..more so since he needed to do it in the fall of 2013.

> The property in question was assessed at $2.9 M

Is it worth $2.9 million? Apparently Trader Joe's thinks it's worth less than $500,000 since they didn't buy it.
Well i'd be hard pressed to believe Microsoft did it out of the goodness of their proverbial heart
I don't think we will ever see a traditional brick and mortar
Amazon store. It goes against everything Amazon has accomplished online. If anything you might see some smaller warehouses for order pickup but not a brick and mortar store.
> EDIT: you can also disable the packages you don't need, perhaps that's an option.

I realize that, but it also means tracking down which thing is misbehaving because it's not immediately obvious.

I haven't given up on Spacemacs, but for the time being, I'll need to swap back and forth with my personal config so that I can get work done. At the very least, there are things that I like about it that I'll want to figure out and pull into my personal config.

There are also some things that could use a bit more documentation. For example, porting parts of my config over, I didn't realize that :nohlsearch was already bound to evil-search-persist-remove-all in the Spacemacs initialization.
Hang on... you worked on MajorBBS? Wow that's cool!

I was fond of PCBoard though because most of the local l33t boards used it and they had PPEs :)

Edit: sorry can't concentrate as I'm minding the kids and being distracted... you STARTED Galacticomm? That's awesome. I'm so happy my post has brought in the big guns to comment :)
You are getting a bit carried away. You aren’t wrong, the number of people who already got sick and either recovered or died affects future infection rates. So do other things. But I’ll use the example I used in another comment here: if you have 7.5 billion people in the world, and a rare disease that requires surgery where 100 people per year get sick, and all 100 undergo the surgery, and 15 of them die due to post surgery infections, is the mortality rate of the surgery 15/100 or 15/7.5 billion? If the latter, why?

As another example: lots of people have the tuberculosis infection which lies dormant in their lungs. TB infection is distinct from TB disease which is where you get symptoms. The former is only dangerous in that it can develop into the latter. The latter can kill you. How should you look at these numbers? Is it worthwhile to drop the number of people with TB disease and just divide deaths by TB infections or is it more informative to derive mortality as deaths / TB diseases while also using TB infections and the conversion rate from those to TB disease to calculate risk and transmissibility? I argue the latter is much more relevant to decision making.
I participate in multiple online communities where the "culture" has only ever existed through text.

Just because it doesn't involve beer or seeing each other's faces doesn't mean that it's not a real culture.

That's not to say that any particular group's culture will translate seamlessly from in-person to text/video chat, but the idea that having and sharing a culture in a text format is somehow lesser than having one in person doesn't make sense to me.

I know there are information theory tradeoffs, but if you want to go really fast, use JPEG. Specifically, LibJpegTurbo.

I have been playing around with this, and it is fast enough to encode a 1080p+ 8bpp framebuffer in under 5 milliseconds. This is fast enough for interactive applications. Most web browsers likely use something similar to this, so as long as you encode quickly on the server you can expect fast decode on the client.

I think that summarizes it pretty well in that one graph.
That was certainly the excuse. But it is trivial for Apple to buy any patent it needs. I believe the real reason is that FaceTime and iMessage hook people to Apple platform and discourage switching to another one.

If young healthy people have never been at risk, then they are not currently at any risk whatsoever, and have not previously been at any risk.

But a nontrivial percentage of young people hospitalized for COVID are not obese, and some otherwise healthy young people have died.

So the claim is false. "Much less risk" is not "no risk."
You know test prep courses are a thing, and that the wealthy are the primary consumers of them, right? Pretty much everything in the USA is pay to win.

Past behavior is not a guarantee of future behavior, but it’s a pretty good heuristic I think.

If you’re contemplating lending money with no collateral to 2 people, one with a 10 year track record of other borrowing and consistently paying back loans as agreed and no information about their employment and a second person where all you know is they have a job, which one would you rather lend to?

The lender wants to know that you will pay them not that you could afford to pay them.

I think we'll need to disagree, as we have incompatible views on what the reality is.

I absolutely do not dispute that anyone involved in building Windows-only desktop apps is not going to be satisfied - but they are absolutely in the minority.

As a consultant, I don't just see the workings of a single org - I work across several orgs every year. When Core first became a thing, some were slow to take it on, which was understandable considering the confusing messaging from Microsoft. But it's been around for a long time now, and Microsoft's messaging and intentions became clear. What I now seen is huge uptake of Dotnet Core - way, way more is now on Core than Framework, and I haven't seen anything new being built on Framework for at least a couple of years.
