If sending email is too daunting of a task, then stop using Gmail to communicate, and switch to "superior" platforms like Twitter and Facebook Messages.

For me, email is the way to go for online communication. Gmail Labs like inbox preview and mouse gestures, and keyboard shortcuts in Preferences help speed up my mail experience.
I would disagree here :).
Hacker News can harm the so called "productivity", but it can boost your creativity.
The whole idea of levels where each kid should be at certain ages forces achievement down. While some kids are sufficiently challenged, others are bored and those with different learning styles are left behind.

Wouldn't it be better if children learned topics that they care about about and at their own pace? How long must the development of the mind be hampered by bad ideas?

Wouldn't it be the best possible outcome if children grew to love the learning process instead of learning to sit and regurgitate?
Meh, they don't seed torrents anyway :)
ooh hey i think i'll just browse the innanet some more i'll start drawing right after a couple more articles on reddit
I was blown away when I didn't find a nofollow in the source.
Can anyone list some good resources about scraping, with gotchas etc.?
Hmmm. I was hoping for a game where you had to solve puzzles by writing assembler directly in hex (as many did in the 70s / 80s including me; I find z80 hex codes still easier to work with).
Did you read the paper? Because the paper doesn't contradict the claims that "Pets != humans".

The argument that the paper made, and I quote "I argue that we should drop the belief in the equal value of human life, replacing it with a graduated view that applies to animals as well as to humans.", emphasize the first half of the sentence (sidenote: the claim shouldn't be a surprise to anyone that know about Singer's utilitarian stance, he's super consistent in being an utilitarian :-) ). He isn't saying that pets is equal to human in moral status, he's saying that the difference shouldn't be explained just by species.
Who's going to blink first though?
Presumption of evidence is morally important because the force of the state is ultimate: they can deprive a person of life and liberty as a consequence.

The suggestion that it is immoral for a different standard being applied to a private clubhouse is not something that was supported by the influential thinkers who gave us the former idea.
I just use openssl and create an alias .
Advertising to kids has traditionally been profitable since the invention of cartoons. But, this is pretty much entirely poorly-managed advertising money being sucked up by content farmers. YouTube makes huge profits directing completely useless ads to tens of millions of rapt toddlers watching reptile-brain videos for hours a day.
i'd get one for nomoney
In Stockholm, Sweden there's 36 cars to a 100 people, the rest use a combination of walking, cycling, electric scooters, taxis and public transport.

There are still jams in Stockholm, but only for people who chose to ride by car, their problem!
This is a major new phenomenon facing parents

No. It's not. That's the whole point.
Cheers for fighting the good fight. Quixotic idealists almost never get anything done... and yet they're still the only ones who do manage it ;P

With high-variance results, but heck, that's nature.
Maybe i should've used the term 'advantage' then. I simply wanted to point out that the ability to choose/reason is in itself very much something you 'inherit', rather than some innate skill that we all have equally.
Its a trick pony. I don't think that use is enough to carry its weight. Also, abusing it immediately in the streams library just encouraged people to find elaborate nonsensical uses for it.
The quantities we are talking about are pretty minimal though, and definitely worth the tradeoff with less coal (or oil for that matter).
This feature was added to Cyanogenmod at some point, then removed later.

Many apps are designed to not work unless they have these unnecessary permissions. I removed phone log permissions from some media and game apps (Bejeweled clones & coin-drop games) and they simply crashed.
Yes, we don’t let our government, with the tools of state violence and the exclusive right to imprison us, ban speech.

However, groups of private citizens, whose powers over the marketplace are/can be heavily limited through existing laws such as antitrust law, enforced by our democratically elected government have no requirement to carry speech they disagree with.

It’s surprising to me how quickly the Big Business/Small Government Republican Party switched as soon as they realized that big businesses don’t always have their interests in mind. I suggest looking over to the far left, as they have been discussing ways to curb power of large businesses for decades and also have a healthy respect of the dangers of giving the government too much power as the frequent target of said powers.
> 90 days

Actually sounds pretty good. In Australia it is 730 days.
Thanks! Indeed you can replicate it yourself but we like to automate as much as possible.
It appears to have 128 GB internal storage, which I believe would easily bump it over the $100 range.

I think the real limitation is not the price, however, but rather the operating system. Since its ARM based, it would probably have some sort of Debian distro installed as opposed to a more mainstream OS (Windows etc). I wonder if we'll see a revision with an x86 Atom processor or something in the future.
GitLab B.V. CEO here, thanks for using us!
OTA updates work exactly the same way on iOS devices, but a far higher percentage of iOS devices are running the latest version of their OS, than are Android devices.
I can definitely see a road warrior sales type buying this and a roll-up bluetooth keyboard or something for putting in his daybag to make presentations, etc., then just using his smartphone for on-the-move stuff.
And you get that world-conquering evil cut scene for even a single slip. Immediately you are irredeemable.
I guess I should have been more specific. Other U.S. exchanges already have this, so what competitive advantage does bitcoins give an exchange?
This was my experience with Selenium - mixed results of either java or javascript from years ago.

Gave up the inherited CI and rewrote everything in playwright in few weeks.
I would phrase it more like:

How much time and money do you have?

"None" -> Use PostgreSQL
"A little" -> Pick a database which matches your application use cases
"A lot" -> Use PostgreSQL
"FAANG" -> Roll your own

With "A lot" of time and money, you quickly spend way too much time on databases, and the sprawl of the work will eat up time and budget that could be better spent on improving products / your organization. Just get the enterprise standardized on Postgres and move on with life.
Ahh long press power button works! At least this would make my regular reboot for watching local channels easier.
I live in the pacific northwest.

30 minutes to all those places. :)

Heck a good electric bike can get me to half of them.

I go camping yearly but normally with my friend who takes his minivan. Even then only 1 of the trips has been over 200 miles away.

Seattle is awesome for a number of reasons, half of those reasons involve how close Seattle is to outdoor activities.

When on vacation using a rental I've driven way over 250 miles at a time, but I'm not counting that against use cases for my primary vehicle.
There are certainly areas you can go where lots of other nomads go (and then hang out with them). Quartzite, Arizona in the U.S. is the obvious example. I understand that, from there, you can caravan off with a group of like-minded nomads to the next destination.
Wow incredible story. Do you happen to have any photos online of the mill and/or the flood
I don't think that's always the case or completely the case here.

What is actually communicated is dependent on both parties in the communication. An entirely accurate statement can be made by one party, intended to communicate the facts in good faith. However, depending on what the second party knows, the statement may not actually communicate what was intended or what is true and accurate.

The difficulty then is saying something which is short enough to actually get read and still communicates to a large majority of people an accurate understanding of the situation.

Again, this is the best case where the people making the statement are acting in good faith. It all goes down hill from there though, if they are actually trying to mislead.
This flowchart is difficult to screw up.
How is your security of tenure renting where you are?

Sadly in my country, our rental laws are still firmly stuck in the "quarter-acre" dream of the 1960s, where renting was only something you did at university before shortly buying your first house with a tiny deposit and a Government backed home loan.

These days as house prices rocket, only now are changes being made to tenancy laws to give tenants some more security. Back in my renting days, I had to move 4 times in 5 years because the landlord wanted to move in, or they sold it, or the farm my cottage was on had been sold and the new owner wanted it for workers, etc.

So here, at least, owning removed a significant amount of stress for me - I know I'll still be living here in 5 years, I haven't been able to say that until now.
You can, with properly written drivers and an open OS.

GNU/Linux obviously is amd64 centric. There's still a tremendous amount of dismissiveness towards anything that's not amd64 (we're even seeing it towards 32 bit x86). So if something doesn't work properly on a non-amd64 system, it's usually not considered a high priority.

The BSDs are much better about this. If something doesn't work, that means it's broken even if it works where 98% of people use it, so it gets fixed. I can, and have, plugged LSI and other RAID cards in to several different non-x86, non-amd64 systems and had them work exactly as expected.
Highly relevant. The only part that I would discount is that he was pretty bullish on the prospects for hardware transactional memory, and his forward-looking statements about it didn't pan out. In fairness, much of the industry was bullish about HTM at that time.
Because my job is only about 40% programming. The rest of it is strategy, design, mentoring, and code review.
The only change I'd make here is by "perceived wealth" instead of "wealth" I know there's plenty of people who look rich and are treated as such that are a bad market turn away from losing everything because they spent all their money on looking rich.
"Now people just search for reddit posts instead. We want to see what real people think about the product, not some paid-for opinion."

You're dead right, there is no other way to get real/accurate facts about products other than to check the experience of others.

One gets good at it too, one quickly learns how to distinguish those who've vested interests and hype up their products over those of rivals, similarly one learns to ignore the clueless who down rate a good product simply because they're incapable of reading the manual.

I've found that doing such research across multiple sites to be absolutely invaluable.
The Logitech M570 and new M575 are a cheaper way to try out a thumb trackball. I've been using an M570 for a couple years, quite happy with it, except that I've found it needs to be put on a 20-30 degree wedge to reduce wrist strain (the Ergo MX has this built in).
This is also the strategy I tend to take. Strong, broad fundamentals so I can quickly pick up specifics on the job.
I have a date/time bug that I really dont feel like figuring out right now
Cos I’m making music
I think it goes more the other way around. Successful people prefer to look attractive, so they take the necessary steps to achieve that. Elon M would be an example, I guess.

To add, food and such can also be more expensive. General CostOfLiving type stuff.
> because we have to legitimately market ourselves and our work somehow.

Do we ?
Either for its IP or for the hostname that results from the reverse-lookup of the IP. The latter is easier to obtain (proof of ownership for IPs is cumbersome) and is often present anyways. It would need an additional DNS lookup, but the present suggestion involving SVCB would need that as well (along with all the other uglyness).
Counter-example: They designed the Bijlmer neighbourhood (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bijlmermeer) to be pedestrian-friendly, with parks, walkways between the buildings, and no cars allowed. But it didn't really work out.
I pay for YNAB. For me it's worth it for their auto-import to take a quick look at my spending across accounts at various institutions and to look at larger trends over time. A lot of folks were annoyed when they went to a subscription model, but I think the visibility they provide really does pay for itself.
And ? Both 5" and 3.5" used the same protocol/ electrical interface. The only true difference it's the motor speed and the number of tracks/sectors stored.
It could be it behaves differently on older iPhone.
I am not a good front end developer, however I think something like Angular is very useful to a frontend noob like me, I remember my old Jquery days, it is much easier to write modular code in Angular. You just have a template, and its controller. Easy! (For not very complicated things ofc) It might be better in other frameworks, I agree the docs are somewhat confusing, I still confuse provider-service-factory however as I said, it simplifies most of my development, and my medium sized web app runs very smoothly with Angular
>>which would be "whoever has the cryptographic keys".

So, crypto believers should be just fine with this.

They used to have the keys. Now the US Govt has the keys. The one who has the keys has the power. All is good
Is that because the "good" people in your field were just way more obsessive about the topic?

I feel like there are some topics that I'm obsessed with that I'm so much more informed on than most people in my field that I can run circles around them. They would call me super smart if the things I'm obsessive about mattered. Sometimes they have mattered. But I know better than to talk about them at length because people get bored.
You just moved the goalposts.

Yes, it's suboptimal to have a server that receives a request with a 32 bit length field indicating 3 gigs of incoming data that the bombs out trying to malloc 32 gigs.

I'm saying: what's an example of a server that reliably, for every allocation of every piece of metadata, every strdup, every hash table entry, every connection object, &c &c, has a recovery regime so that it doesn't have to fail ever when malloc does?

One way you could find such a program would be to compile a candidate and preload a malloc that randomly (1 in every 100 calls per allocation size, for instance) returns NULL. See if the program (a) continues to run and (b) passes some simple unit test suite.

My contention is:

(a) Those programs will be hard to find, because most "production ready" Unix code does not have that property, and

(b) The criteria I'm talking about matters a lot, because (1) memory exhaustion strikes at totally arbitrary points in a program's execution, not just at the points where you're prepared to handle it, and (2) attackers can pinpoint exactly the allocation they want to have fail.

As an example of an approach that doesn't seem to work well: in "memqueue", the function that creates HTTP headers in responses allocates an array of iovecs. If that malloc fails, the header creation function returns -1. The function that calls the header-creation function, http_respond, catches that error and itself returns -1. Nothing ever checks the error return from http_respond.

(Also, the loop in which memqueue reads entire requests into memory by continuously realloc()'ing a receive buffer has an integer wrap bug in it, though it's probably not triggerable. But incorrect is incorrect, right?)
Not that amount, but afford to pay some amount for access, obviously for the massive full price little if any research that can't be monetized will be conducted. It's a net loss for us all and no gain for Twitter.
When (attempting to) think critically, you can't just choose to ignore the entire context. And when you're talking about both the kinds of sources and the order of magnitude or so difference, one estimate is not "just as useless".

One estimate is based on the retelling of a made up number by some anonymous source accompanied, with other information that was verifiably not true.

Friedman's estimate is based on real honest to god numbers produced by the accounting agency of the government in question minus an unknown amount. He did not mention the missing amount for SS, true. But given the context, I can see why he may have not -- it does't really matter when you're at least an order off [1].

Drawing a false equivalence here is not thinking critically.

[1] The budget for the entire year for SS protection was 689M in 2008 [http://whitehousetransitionproject.org/resources/briefing/Pa...].
Indeed. Those I figured were from a tool, but the ones with confused-sounding prose were dead giveaways.
Oooooh i get it. Right don't have an iPad and haven't spent more than 5 minutes on one so didn't recognize the formating.

Clever.
Doesn't work for me in chrome. I expect it not to work for the flash half, since i have that turned off, but the HTML 5 is supposed to be, you know, standard.
If you find yourself thinking something more than once, write it down.
Umm.. Surely they meant 'hardware' here.. or else this is a double-troll..

As you probably know the minerals that are used in the production of various software products have largely been extracted from mines in Africa, especially the Congo. For the most part this mining has gone...
The contrary is that if you are targeting the low end market, you need to price it that way from the start, and stay away from enterprise deals that require custom work.
Social media isn't the piece of paper.

It's handing out copies of what you wrote to potentially countless people.
Same, however this similarly is also a Chromium / JS mishmash
Why is this unique to social media? This is the media establishment as a whole. E.g. news capitalizes on constant doom and gloom b/c that's been getting them the eyeballs for the longest. Notice how all the blockbusters are full of violence, horror and sex.

Oh, this applies to social media too. Super surprised. Thanks Sacha.
This is a speculation based on the exchange. But I think it would make sense? Feels like win-win for both companies.
Well, that’s the sound-bite/bumber-sticker/I’m-on-the-right-side-of-history-so-I-don’t-care-what-the-collateral-damage-is-as-long-as-Trump-suffers quip, but, no, no they aren’t. When I was young, the censors were all right-wing Christian conservatives, and we successfully (for the most part) fought back against them. One of the most often-repeated weapons in the fight against right-wing censorship back then was, “if you accept censorship of obscenity, you’re going to end up with censorship of political viewpoints”. Yet here we are, in spite of the relatively victory against right-wing censorship, staring down the barrel of much worse left-wing KGB-style censorship.
DeepFake issues has definitely been exaggerated
> but as of right now, you'd be among "2,647,287 already enrolled!"

* Enrolling yourself in a free online course, does not, at all make you a ML expert. A very sizeable portion of those enrolled may not have gone further than the first chapter.

* The ML train (as in people actually knowing ML) is not, at all, crowded

* Even if the train was crowded, learning ML does not make you forget what you already know. Saying "I don't want to learn this skill because so many people already have it", just means there are that many people that now have one more skill than you (unless you decide to allocate this time to learning something else)
Great idea and all, but the frames are going to have to match the style of current glasses - without the electronics on the nosepiece. Otherwise, the cool factor of wearing glasses is lost, and he might as well sell the honky prototype.
I think you're underestimating the power of sensory deprivation.
Followup - if your startup is successful, chances are you're going to end up working at a big company. Either you will be acquired, or you will grow.

Experience with this can help you be a better entrepreneur.
Leo Laporte and Kevin Rose worked together on The Screen Savers many moons ago, they're probably friends at this point.
While false positives are a fact of life with any filtering system, they have no incentive to FIX the problem, as those false positives lead to their being able to hold funds indefinitely, earning interest at least, and potentially absorbing the entire balance.

This is called a moral hazard, and it should be pretty clear to you.

Paypal has a very long, very well documented history of triggering holds on accounts, and never resolving them.
Are you talking about RTMPE?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protected_Streaming

Because that's been busted for some time. A lack of easy point-and-click GUI RTMPE dumpers does not mean the encryption scheme is unbroken.

Tools which have a copy of the well-known constants
extracted from the Adobe Flash player are able to
capture RTMPE streams, a form of the trusted client
problem. Adobe issued DMCA takedowns on RTMPE recording
tools including rtmpdump to try to limit their
distribution. However in the case of rtmpdump, this
led to a Streisand effect.
Why do you have to make this about you? That was just a general statement about how the vast majority of people is. If everyone reacted like you, we could never make a statement about anything since there's always an exception to anything one might say.

It's analogous to me being offended if someone says dogs have 4 legs because my dog was born with only 3.
The netflix PS3 player until recently was a java (BD-J) application shipped on a non-encrypted blu-ray disc. Can't somebody extract the jars from that?

There's also a netflix app for the Boxee Box, an Intel 32-bit Linux device. The box ships locked down but has already been rooted/jailbroken. Couldn't one extract the app from that too?
Doses that go to waste because the prioritization system ignores logistics. Utilization should be optimized for.
Power supply and water are utilities. Mobile connectivity and internet are not. Groceries are not.

Someone else's speech isn't a protected class, except for speech due to religion. Discrimination based on things that aren't a property of being in a protected class is legal for any non-utility.

Personally I'd say that internet service providers should be utilities and regulated as such, but currently they aren't so the ISPs are allowed to decide what speech to carry.
Not sure how formal they are at checking employment or pre existing conditions.. Would depend state by state
Which part "live codes world into existence"?
Personally I trust my ISP DNS a hell of a lot more than Google/Cloudflare. Why would I want to give them even more data about me?
What is the argument against prioritizing those who are at significantly higher risk of death?
I’ve never tried it myself, but can’t think of any reason why it wouldn’t work in principle if you do want to go that route
This is what we eat, this is where we work, this is what we do to our land: It's nasty and must be rethought

Do to our land? What must be rethought? Yeah, he never got to the "rethinking" part

I tried to imagine the great national efforts that had made such lunatic efficiency possible

Yeah, typical socialist thinking. Somehow fast-food restaurants was another Manhattan project....but for evil.

I refer not only to roads and sewers and small-business loans but also to something much more direct.

Ah yes, someone has been listening to Obama and can't come up with an original idea. "You didn't build that".

What a horrible article, but oh so typical by those that claim they "care".
