If you're writing a script that has to run on any Unix or Unix-like system, AWK is a good choice. Because it's going to be there.
I tried diligently for quite a few weeks to log calories. I generally avoid pre-packaged foods, so no barcode to scan. I do eat out fairly often, but prefer non-chain places. It's hard to figure out how to break down everything in the Turkey Sandwich. I cook at home often, too. I just found it very difficult and time consuming to log all of the ingredients to a recipe and portion it out (if I made a recipe for my girlfriend and I, and I had 60% and she had 40% there wasn't really a way to convey that). I crave variety and I found that makes this way more difficult.

I feel like I make healthy choices, and those can be harder to log.

I also wasn't very confident about what I found in their database or online. Something like an apple can vary greatly in size and while number vary on the Internet, it was hard to correlate that to get a confident result.
I wouldn't oppose this and I'd probably even further it with a put-away-the-phone rule to encourage social interaction. That and it certainly helps with women/girls to be able to bullshit effectively because even if they know you're lying it is quite disarming and even charming and intriguing to engage in such banter. Another thing that helps with women is not necessarily having an expensive car but a nice car.

I don’t know. Google is a search engine for web content. I don’t think it should discriminate based on the content being freely available or not.

Adding a feature for an end user to say restrict a search in some manner might be nice, but the point, at least in my opinion, of a web search engine is to find any and all matching content on the web. If some of that is paid or otherwise blocked content it’s still doing its job properly.
Well I guess I'm just hooked on jq. Functional pipelines with named blocks you can recall. Here's a recent script I wrote: https://gist.github.com/turbo/36e87947a56cfaacec9d0356b3e521...

I'm mad that I don't have that for XML. I do a lot of tree and graph processing in Postgres and xpath lends itself well for that. However debugging sucks! Also, since you can't store results along the line (like in jq), querying order dependent pairs needs a union. Not so in xpath 2 but PG dropped work on XML right when Json was ramping up. I'm still mad! There was a discussion whether to integrate Zorba into Postgres (which speaks JQ and XPath, using the same type system and query engine) but that never got any traction. So xpath was bastardized into its "modern" variants but something (subjectively) intuitive like jq never developed for it. This is where I see the need for CDuce.
If they demand you know SOLID then they must be “Uncle Bob” acolytes, which is a strong signal that you should run in the opposite direction as fast as possible
They effectively trained you to buy more, faster. Bravo!

If you wait another week, the price usually falls again. Cammel3 is a good place to look to keep yourself sane on prices. Many 3rd party resellers mostly do it to get people to buy, I have seen much less from actual 'amazon sold' items.
> Well, no luck, WinRT's closed policies won't allow that (and it's not a technical issue.).

It's true that Microsoft doesn't allow alternative rendering engines on WinRT, but it is ARM instead of x86, so there is a technical component; Google would have to port Chrome.
Thanks a lot, if you ever use it for anything cool let me know :)
I agree completely... sort of on the same topic: It used to be really bad with Pinterest infecting image search. Same problem, almost all hits directing to the Pinterest walled garden. It appears to me that this has gotten better recently, but I don't really know why.
Companies should be implementing good security not because of the good press it will get them but because of the bad press it won't get them.
Maybe. I lost my signed sheet. So I have to do like 20 hours again. You wouldn't happen to know a good place to find things to volunteer for in general?
> What I'm wondering about is why the plane allows a pilot to take a fatal action. For example, why would an auto-pilot system allow a jetliner to nose dive? Maybe it does not.

I believe it doesn't (not an expert though), as it'll assume you've lost control of the airplane and will try to recover. However in this case the descent was at a fairly standard speed. But yeah the autopilot will not override the pilot if the airplane seems under control.
Or to put it in a more general way: is security theatre now costing lives?
you got the message almost verbatim but you forgot the most important part "... and kick you out."
There is a marketplace to buy and sell side projects https://www.sideprojectors.com/project/home
I worked for a startup that built a no code platform. The experience you had, was the same experience that the majority of our customers had. Its a general problem with low code. We tried to make the software easily extendable so that developers could refactor away the complexity, by easily adding new tools to the design surface. The approach worked quite well for internal projects, but was at odds with the marketing approach to the product, so it was never pushed to clients. Clients were sold a utopia of business analysts dropping some components onto a designer and hey presto. Low code can work, but in the same way as traditional dev, where code should be refactored into components that's are easy to reason about. The problem is that this is hard to sell. There is a very nice balance to be had with combining low code with traditional dev. Its just very hard to find that balance. Its far easier to write good code in a traditional language that in a low code environment. If you add to that the expectations created from low code demos, its mostly a recipe for disaster.
The basic problem with inequality is that it kills the middle class, which is one of the prime engine of growth. Riches only consume a small part of their money, and invest the rest, which produces easily investment bubbles, but not much growth in terms of industry and wealth production. That's (also) why the banking sector is getting so big. At the contrary, a strong middle class also maintains well democracy, and produces continuing growth over decades.

Also, take it upside down - why isn't the US currently clearly richer that Europe? Germany, Sweden provide good examples that a bit higher taxing isn't killing the economy, much more the opposite. Also India and China have such a growth because they also produce a middle class, and not only super riches.

But well, it's the old discussion libertarians vs utilitarians... ;)
Appreciate it, I'll send an email off in a bit, not sure if I have the kind of time I need to be a solid contributor anymore, but I can always take a stab.

(btw, some of my biggest long distance bills ever came from calling Starport years ago to get the latest releases)

I just checked and my user pages don't even exist anymore. :(
The "status" of olden days, by the by, did not just happen. It was created at some earlier point in time by "self-made men": warlords, robbers and so on and then maintained by force or coercion.
The issue of liquidity is important. One aspect that affects all of us is the borrowing of money. The easy borrowing of money drives the price up for that which it is borrowed.

Housing would be more affordable if one needed to save a greater portion of the purchase price. Being able to borrow hundreds of thousands of dollars causes an artificial bidding war.

The same happened with education. When it became possible to borrow for education, the prices for education rose as well. This also degraded the quality of education in many fields, as the barrier to entry (not finances!) was removed. Institutions enrolled students in many worthless classes only for the income stream.

This affects the poor because the price of everything is inflated through borrowing and debt (even the extra few percent the merchants charge to cover credit card fees).

I've never taken out a loan in my life, and I am comfortably liquid. But my liquidity is always eaten away when someone borrows beyond their means.

Note that I am not against borrowing, and see the value of it in certain circumstances. But when borrowing is easy for the consumer, and consequences for borrowing are removed, it affects all of us.
An equivalent model is the Asus U35jc (which I just bought) :

It's difficult for me to summarize all of my opinions into something more concise for this page.

Businesses tend to shun poor people, while businesses that cater to poor people are usually out to screw them as well. (payday lenders, banks that nickel and dime - especially if you are low on savings)

Some poor people could be in better positions if they had more time to pursue better opportunities, but they cannot, as they are working 2-3 jobs just to make ends meet (at least this is the case, one of my friends claims).. and I happen to know this person spends way too much on clothing - more than I do, not to mention my rent is 1/3rd of theirs.

I do fine, I live way below my means, I'm happy, I don't need fancy labels or a top neighborhood, which this person has all of.

I'm not saying all poor are the same in that regard. Some just really I don't know how they can escape their position.

Also I could easily own a home but I choose not to because I like my freedom. Right now I can move anywhere in the country, I can quit my job if I want to, etc.. I remember looking at homes this past spring and the idea of having a commitment or being in a vulnerable position (if I lose my job or get really sick I'm SCREWED) just did not appeal to me at ALL. How anyone does this is beyond me.

“We” being people with left-to-right languages. All rtl languages I know of write numbers the same as ltr languages, i.e. in the rtl case little endian.

As you have to read an entire positional number to be able to get even its magnitude; the only “advantage” I can see of LE over BE in natural languages is that at least rtl can get odd/even immediately. Then again in ltr you can get sign immediately. In real life human use neither “advantage” is compelling.
The fed have more options/levers to manage the situation as it evolves than banks do. I think it's less risky for the fed to do this than a major bank.
I remember those days. The age of "shareware". I made a good side income in the late 90s writing software utilities in Delphi.

>>Growth and technology are actually reducing the difference between rich and poor in almost every aspect of life.

It seriously annoys me when people say this, because it's so incredibly short-sighted. It's only in terms of physical, tangible standard of living factors. Travel, as you noted, is one of those. And yeah, everyone has refrigerators in their homes nowadays. Yay!

But being ultra-rich gives a tremendous amount of intangible perks, such as the ability to greatly influence public policy and the ability to afford top-notch legal representation, which lets them get away with serious crimes that would put normal people like you and I in jail for decades. There's also inter-generational perks. For example, children of ultra-rich parents can afford excellent education and are much more likely to get into the top schools.

I can go on. The fact is, the differences between the haves and the have-nots today are vast, and they are getting bigger every day as wealth inequality increases. Yes, it is good that we have the basics covered for most people but beyond those basics things look pretty grim.
Searle's 'experiment' is silly. Searle is trying to make readers empathize with the 'person in the box'. Let's concede, for the moment, that the person in the box doesn't understand Chinese in any meaningful way.

That says nothing about whether or not the SYSTEM on a WHOLE understands Chinese. Given the constraints of Searle's example (that every input produces a 'correct' output, but does so via this labour-intensive process), it seems there IS intelligence going on there at the SYSTEM level.

Ultimately, the point of that story is saying 'the cpu isn't smart'. Fine, that's not the argument behind AI/PI. And the whole 'there's nothing going on that isn't in the person already' also misses the point: what if, instead of a slow human translating, we had a fast human doing the lookups at the magnitude of a trillion lookup operations per second? They'd be able to do substantially more 'translating' work than the author of the software. So now, say that we program 'learning' instead of 'translation'. Sweet, now the computer can't learn any BETTER than the human, but it can learn FASTER, and there may be some substantial benefit to that.

His own argument is self-refuting: "in fact it was doing exactly what I had told it to do and nothing which I couldn't have done myself longhand given the time." Right. But you're limited by death, and a computer isn't limited in the same way. So say AI never makes it to 'smarter than human given enough time'. Fine. If it does in 30 seconds what it would take me 17,000 years to complete, I'm pretty happy.

The FAR more interesting question (to me) and probably one that can't be solved until we 'get there' is this: will computer intelligence be subject to the same foibles and hangups as a human? So, for instance, could "Google AI" respond to my search request by saying, "Wow, what a boring question, stop bothering me."
I agree with many of the things @canthonytucci said. My biggest thing is that I need Vim keybindings to feel 'normal' inside my editor and, for the life of me, can't find out how to enable them in Light Table. The commands and views I use/see in my LT installation on Fedora 19 do not look like or act like the docs. It's extremely frustrating. I'm willing to muddle through learning a new text editor. I also really want to like this editor but I find it hard to do so when the docs aren't matching what I see.

UK IT brokers have hundreds of them if not thousands floating around. Mine wasn't even used. SSD costs more than the unit. It doesn't take a genius to source that quantity.

HOwever, the school district should buy a pile of shit dell desktops and bolt them to the desks like they probably did before rather than succumb to a low priced promotional Trojan.

Someone probably gets a promotion for saving the cash but do they realise how inflexible the machine is and how tied onto the vendors' platform it is.

Selling out is the only description.
CQS/UQDF is standard as a failover feed for HFT firms, at least ones I've worked at.

You're right about how Reg NMS works for IOC's. For DAY orders, you must clear all shares at all prices equal to or better than X (in your case, you must be all shares on EDGA/EDGX at both 9.99, 9.98, AND 10.00).
Attempting to decipher those nanex charts without a detailed explanation of what they purport to show is a waste of time. I'm guessing here he's trying to show a stale quote (in red) at one of the exchanges after trading resumed in AAPL but who really knows.
You can get an SSH terminal on ChromeOS (either dev-mode or via a Chrome app). You can also get a remote desktop client. That's all you need for the vast majority of system administration tasks. Typically you use your primary desktop to connect to a server to do any other tasks.

And, I would think that for most school work, having a computer that the kids can't break would be an admin's dream.

So, the ChromeOS notebook should work as good as anything for that job.

I never listen to voice mails since I can't arsed to set it up and I only take calls from numbers I know.

First of all: We can agree to disagree and stop this, I guess? At least for me, this will be my last post here.

You're a name that comes up a lot here, and frankly I don't want to start a "That's insane" discussion with one of the top HN contributors. I've got no idea what's going on in you to defend that process, I'm certainly surprised to see your "It is necessary" comments in this thread, but .. I guess I leave the discussion again after this post.

I really, really don't want to offend you, but I guess this might be taken personal anyway: I'm confused, surprised and - to some degree - disgusted that this pro-terrorism scheme could be supported here, by a hacker.

Regarding your arguments: I'm no expert on explosives (hello NSA?) and wouldn't know about that. Actually I don't believe that claim (think citation needed), I haven't heard about major breakthroughs in explosive materials. You might be right.

I'm always checking in my bag. It's more comfortable for me and allows me to put stuff in that thing that I cannot take on board (yeah, but it can be on board below deck of course..).

Real time is crap. Before and after you needed to pass security. It was always 'one check, at one point, every passenger'. Now they just go nuts and try mentally insane procedures on top.

I doubt that 9/11 changed the risk profile. I think some people, a group of interested parties, changed the risk profile instead.

TSA Pre: Wouldn't know about that. I'm not from the US, never been there, will never travel there. The whole country has so much to offer (culture, country, vast and large) and it was my teenage geek dream to move there one day. Today? I laugh about that. The requirements to enter the country are just not worth it and there's plenty of stuff elsewhere that I need to see.
check out some friends of mine at www.entrustet.com

They are doing exactly what you describe
Because the radiation is sent in a burst, [..] the DNA
damage may be far greater than a similar dose of cosmic
radiation.

People keep repeating that, but it is not simply true. DNA can get damaged when a single photon excites an electron and consequently influences the molecular structure. The chances of multiple photons operating on the same electron at the same time, even in cases of a radiation burst, are negligible. The person is affected by the same number of photons, which results in the same number of chances of electrons being excited. The number of excited electrons will be equal and the resulting damage will be equal.

Now it may matter that the damage is more localized in both space and time, but no one has shown this. Firstly space: spreading the radiation over only the surface, for instance 1/10th of the body (remember that surface times a small depth is always a relatively large part of a volume), means 10 times as much damage. But if the average amount of damage in the skin was one broken bond per 1000 cells, it will now be one broken bond per 100 cells. As the repair takes place per cell, that doesn't change anything for the total chances to get cancer. Only if the amount of damage in a single cell, and close enough to each other to be relevant, changes, then this type of operation may pose a problem.

Secondly for time: everything depends on the amount of time it takes a cell to repair DNA damage. If the average time of repair takes 3 seconds, then during a flight, some damage will be repaired before other damage takes place. The backscatter machine delivers its dose faster and damage may accumulate. However, if repair takes 30 minutes on average, the difference is again neglible.

The point is not that I know the numbers: the point is that people making claims don't know them. They are just claiming things that seem to make sense to them, when they draw an analogy with a car crash or something. They don't understand what is actually involved.
Wow, a ton of nitty gritty details I was not aware of!
Let ◻ be the modal operator "It is provable that", so ◻P means that P is provable.

The first part of your argument in the second link says:[

Suppose that there is a proposition UNP such that UNP ⇔ ¬◻UNP .

Then, suppose that ¬UNP .
It then follows that ¬¬◻UNP , i.e. that ◻UNP.

Therefore, ◻◻UNP .

Then, as UNP ⇔ ¬◻UNP, therefore ¬UNP ⇔ ◻UNP.

Then, replace the ◻UNP in ◻◻UNP with ¬UNP, and therefore conclude ◻¬UNP .

So, at this point, we have concluded that ◻¬UNP and also that ◻UNP.
So, you can conclude that, __under these assumptions__, that ◻⊥ .

So, under the assumption that there is a statement UNP such that UNP ⇔ ¬◻UNP , and the additional assumption that ¬UNP, you can conclude that ◻⊥.

]

Indeed.

If a system admits a statement UNP, (and the system is strong enough to do the appropriate reasoning) (and peano arithmetic and such does admit such a statement UNP), then within the system, you can show that ¬UNP implies ◻⊥.
I.e. "if the statement that claims it cannot be proven, can be proven, then the system proves a contradiction".
This is entirely normal, and does not overturn anything.

However! While the assumption that ¬UNP allows us to derive ◻⊥, it does not allow us to derive ⊥.
We have __not__ shown that ¬UNP → ⊥, we have only shown that ¬UNP → ◻⊥.
Therefore, this is not justification in appealing to proof by contradiction, and concluding UNP (nor ◻UNP).
That’s what freedom is, you don’t get a say in what they do if they don’t want you to.
