You can get this as a side effect of multiplexing connections, see ControlMaster in ssh_config. Multiplexing connections also makes opening a second connection to the same host much faster, so it's usually worthwhile on its own.

(Note that it's not perfect: in particular, the first connection to a host remains open until all collections have been closed. This is being worked on, IIRC.)
Yeah, that's exactly right, digital photo tech is growing and progressing. Film camera tech? Stagnant.
I just moved from iPhone to Android. The only thing I can't do is scroll an element in the browser. For example a DIV element with overflow:auto. On the iPhone, you just use 2 fingers to scroll it. On Android it seems to be impossible to scroll. Which means certain websites are a bit broken.

Interesting technique, although I think a domain specific extension of Haskell for analysing log records might be more useful.

I'm sure there are more complex examples, but all the tasks in the screencast could be done easily with Splunk. It might, if you want to develop the idea of log analysis further to look at their search cheatsheet. http://www.splunk.com/base/Documentation/latest/SearchRefere...

Most of the syntax in the screencast is relatively guessable or explained, however NubBy means remove duplicates using the provided test condition.

You'd be surprised how many spam scripts are stopped by this anyway. Most of them follow a shotgun strategy: crawl the web and submit their spam to every form they see. I think the logic is that if someone is vigilant enough to install a CAPTCHA in the first place (especially a custom one), they'll be vigilant enough to quickly delete the small amount of spam that they do see.

I did some experiments on a WordPress blog monitoring what the bots were doing. A surprising number didn't even seem to parse the form, they just had standard POST data that they sent when they found an article with comments. These must have been WordPress-specific spam bots, but even the other bots were not much smarter.
I described it as whining because it was coming from people who were ranting a lot but weren't contributing to the design or development. You’re painting a somewhat dramatic depiction but even if was true there’s nothing showing that the team wasn’t genuinely trying to deal with some technical debt and make a better browser.

We still see the same dynamic on most desktop Firefox release threads here where someone will be very angry that Mozilla doesn’t let them direct development and will go strangely silent when asked how they’d deal with that problems which lead to those decisions in the first place.
It reminds me of that interview a few years back 'Ms Bacall, what was it like working with a screen legend like Nicole Kidman?'
The Australian implementation is "metadata", but what that is and means is still rather ambiguous.

After a five year court case, the Federal Court decided in 2017 that the average citizen isn't allowed to access all data that may be about them, despite being allowed to do so under the Privacy Act. If that sounds ambiguous... It's because it is.

Without an ability to say with is metadata and what is not, everything may be getting stored, and some companies will be overly conservative in how much data they are storing.

Not to say that this is worse than the Chinese implementation which is far more explicit in its demands for privacy invasion, just that the Australian case is... Worse than it sounds.
I have a sneaking suspicion Boar's Head et al. know sandwich making secrets that would substantially improve my lunches.

I mean, you do anything for long enough, you get good at it. Especially if you're soliciting feedback from even more people who are doing it.

I think somewhere out there there's a story of a Brita customer support rep tracking down a filtration engineer to get a technical answer to how long one could filter and drink urine for.
For those who are interested, the Normans had a large influence throughout Europe and the Middle East during the high Middle Ages. From the conquest of England, to the founding of the Kingdom of Sicily, and the creation of many of the Crusader states. They also played a large role in the Spanish Reconquista, and nearly conquered the Byzantine Empire. Very fascinating stories.
Not sure that I've seen this addressed, but I view Elo as an approximation to a PageRank-like stationary distribution. Have others thought about this more formally?
I was like Hacker News did it again tied together completely unrelated things into a casual relationship.
Besides the gut flora being capable of some neurological effects it has demonstrated to be psychoactive. Professor Robert Sapolsky[1] has an amazing course on Behavorial Evolution. The toxoplasmic gondii comes from the rat -> cat -> gut -> brain, it is profound that side effects in the brain are chemically constructed from the stomach. Considering that most animals do not even have a brain,but usually have a stomach, it is evident that the gut is underestimated in the evolutionary tree.

Ah. I just did a bit of research. It seems that while, yes, the SAE J1772 standard does exist and Tesla actually sat on the committee they, and others, decided to do it their own way. Apparently Europe and China diverge from the US and Tesla on this. To me it sounds like there are no standards at this point.

Here's an interesting interview:

No, I am not missing that point.

You are missing a point.

Yes, inside the cave there is no force. But the black hole can hit the wall just once. After that it can not go any farther.

If passes thought/inside the wall it will be pulled back to the center, and the momentum exchange with the earth will slow it down (so next time it won't go as far). If it was just touching the wall, then that is as far as it can possibly go.

So once it's inside it's little cave, it's done. It can't eat anymore. (Unless of course there is no cave and the earth feeds it, but we are assuming a cave.)

You are missing three points: one is that if there is no cave, and it's oscillating through the earth, it will be pulled to the center. Two is that it looses momentum each time through the earth. And three is that once it's inside it's hollow cave it can no longer reach the wall.
Right CSS version, wrong module: http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-ui/#box-sizing

The CSS3 UI module is a candidate recommendation. Setting:

box-sizing: border-box;

essentially puts the CSS box model render mode to where it was in IE5 (which is, frankly, the only sensible way to do it). Right now, it is available with Mozilla, Webkit and Microsoft prefixes (as are most of the UI module properties).
So there's 2 questions in there.

1) Should I learn the language?
2) Should I bother learning to use a DOM library like jQuery.

So the answer to both is actually yes. For someone coming to js for the first time, its very important that you at least learn an intermediate amount about the language before you worry about a browser library like jQuery.

You should get your hands on a copy of Javascript the Good Parts by Douglas Crockford. Its a short book, and easily the best written about javascript. The key thing is that the book addresses only the language. It tells you very simply what and what not to do. Learning these basics will help you get up to speed tremendously.

In regards to jQuery, its important to know that the language and the browser are two completely separate things. The language is basically implemented the same in most modern browsers with a few minor exceptions, 90% of which involve older versions of IE. The thing that people always get confused about is that the things DOM libraries wrap around are the various browser DOM APIs that are made accessible via js.

So, get the book. Learn the core tenets of the language. Then use a library to pave over all the rough bits when writing code that's meant to run in different browsers. In this day and age, the less you have to write "low-level" code to run across multiple browsers the happier you'll be. The exception here is if you're writing a web app that has to be very tiny and still function everywhere. A good example would be a widget that 3rd party sites can plug into their pages. You can never rely on another party having jQuery or whatever library you're using, and its cost prohibitive to load an entire 20k library to support your widget.
Your problem is not with setTimeout, you need to learn how to write evented code because that is how javascript works and you're going to encounter this problem in different contexts. Passing in a closure to setTimeout usually suffices though, it's just slightly uglier than a normal "sleep" call.

If you really, really wanted to you could create a busy wait sleep function, but it's an awful idea and you should never do it.
Groovy is gaining popularity among scientists and researchers because of it's ease of use and performance.
>And if you think that human-human communication is less valuable than putting a few satellites in space (NASA/ESA/ISRO/etc are the real keys to future space exploration) then I would argue your priorities are a bit warped.

that is exactly bifurcation point each technological civilization faces (be it whole human race today or China 600 years ago) - to "go in", i.e. collapse into something like ant-colony or to "go out", i.e. explore and expand.
Sure - I had antibiotics treatment early in life and had chronic diarrhea at age 3. Later, I was an outsider as a kid, and had difficulty making eye contact. There might be a connection.
Maybe so, but does SpaceX really advance science in a significant way? That is, compared to the best next alternative?
Reminds me of the similar problem with the machine learning conference NIPS which was renamed NeurIPS (not much of an improvement if you ask me). There were instances of women at that conference also being forced into uncomfortable situations relating to the name. People are dumb.

I was just thinking of a few other names that I find amusing but I can definitely imagine people abusing:

- Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS)

- Aircraft Incident Data Store (AIDS. This was renamed)

If you do that, the next time there's a crash like Air France 447, you'll see rending of garments and crappy articles like this (again) saying "Why have a black box when you can just transmit the data?!?!?!"

> French Bureau d'Enquetes et d'Analyses (BEA) chief Paul-Louis Arslanian said that he was not optimistic about finding them since they might have been under as much as 3,000 m (9,800 ft) of water and the terrain under this portion of the ocean was very rugged. Although France had never recovered a flight recorder from such depths, there was precedent for such an operation.

> streets surrounding mid- and high-rises don't even have sidewalks (see: the West End)

Uh... I live in West End now, and what I see is the opposite. Proper sidewalks everywhere, few above-ground residential parking lots. I mean, we're talking about streets, right? Not back alleys.
The world is so big...
As pointed out in another post, the way timezone rule changes are stored actually does effectively what you are saying. For each time zone / locale, when there is a rule change, it is appended to the existing rules along with the date of the change. Example from the tzdata2015b file for the New_York time zone:

Less surface area that you are touching, and also, you can see that the corners are cooler than the rest of the object.
>Go back the first study and read the full sentence that you conveniently cut in the middle

I cut there for brevity, as it clearly means "the hand sanitizer and facemask usage outlined and tested in the study should be encouraged." You can't ignore everything else in the paper and say they are advocating everyone wears a mask.

With the second study, even what you quote supports my position. "After symptom onset" means "when sick."

>especially in this season, so there could be people who think they just have pollen allergies while in reality they are symptomatic carriers of SARS-CoV-2

If you are coughing or sneezing, you should be wearing a mask.

>If not, just stop, please.

So far, you have posted two articles that support my claim, and made references to various statistics implying face mask usage is responsible for the good stats. I am not spouting nonsense that will kill people, this is the WHO's position.
The government isn't meeting in a public space, which these rules apply to. And they are able to use phone and video conferencing (which is how they coordinated these rules according to the original press conference on this).

The body has a very strong preference for burning fat rather than muscle. Breaking down muscle for energy is a last resort. The reason why conventional wisdom says you can't lose fat without losing muscle is because most diets put the dieter into a larger calorie deficit than the body can support through burning stored body fat. The 0.9% number is very important here. Go over it, and yes, your body will try to find energy elsewhere which includes your muscles. That's why I said to start with a 50% margin of safety. Also it's important to keep in mind that the body isn't a set of binary switches. There are many feedback loops, buffers, and redundant systems beyond the simple model I presented, which is another reason to not go 100% on this. 50% though will help ration food out for a longer period of time without getting into a situation at the end of the crisis period with too large of a calorie deficit to function properly or to prevent muscle breakdown.
And Intel is now headed by someone with a 100% finance/business background. Intel is nipping at the heels of Boeing. Tens of billions of dollars in dividends and stock buybacks announced that should be going to saving their (and by proxy, the U.S.'s) manufacturing capability.
I'd probably recommend Gatsby, it's super flexible, has great documentation, tons of plugins and includes good defaults.

I've previously used hugo to build some customer sites. It's super quick to build, but we ended up replicating a bunch of work that Gatsby has support for like image optimisation, minification, etc.

Netlify is a good hosting option if you're not married to S3.
Some things that would be nice to have: support for mouse events, OCR of graphical applications (so e.g. you can program it to click on a text even if the location/font of the text isn't fixed), and support for DOM tree navigation in case you're interacting with a web page.

I can say that, the majority of torrents used in the world are films and songs. Any other claim is truly preposterous.

I have no idea why you think otherwise, who do you think torrents?

It's a totally strange position to take. I do not understand it.

On the other hand I totally agree with you and the poster above me about the ease, quality (in terms of advert and stupid menu-less content) and speed on getting new content, it's absurd we're in a situation where getting illegal content is quicker and easier than getting legal content. But that's another matter.
At the very least, Linux is going to get a serious push for GNUStep, and a ton more dev's if it works out.

That's what I hope too. While Cocoa has grown into a powerful API, the development on GNUStep has stalled.

Interesting, that there's no word about the Cocotron project (http://www.cocotron.org), even though they seem to have similar goals.

Pretty curious how this is going to work out.
That made me think...

The upper end of estimates about the number of albums released per year by "the recording industry" seems to be around 35,000:

http://www.mahalo.com/answers/how-many-albums-are-released-p... (and god I feel dirty linking to mahalo!)

That seems high at ~100 albums per day, but its perhaps plausible worldwide. (note too that this means it'd take you 3 or 4 years to listen to a years worth of new music)

A quick poke at my iTunes library reveals "an album" to require on average between 50 and 100 meg - call it 75 meg.

That means the entire music industries output is somewhere around 2.5TB/year - that's, what, ~$150 worth of disk space? Call it $300 if you want to back it all up.

I guess when you business model is based on a product which people can steal every single thing you sell, and store it for under a buck a day, random speculative lawsuits might be a sensible "pivot"...

(another interesting random observation - 2.5TB/year probably means the entire worlds published recorded music output is less that 100TB compressed, perhaps only 500TB @ raw CD bitrates. Even uncompressed that _barely_ gets you out of the second lowest Amazon S3 pricing tier.)
...in a vacuum
> This is absolutely not true.

I disagree, and I would prefer the entirety of my phrasing be quoted:

> Brick and mortar retailers manage to reach an acceptable level of business without watching exactly how every customer looks at shelves by just selling things people want or need [...]

I am referring to the enormous number of independent retailers, not just the small number of ultra-wealthy retail giants. Note I was careful to say "acceptable level of business" rather than "absolutely maximised profits", because I don't necessarily agree that it is a requirement that all people make as much money as they can possibly manage.

If you were to make the argument that monitoring customers' actions is a means to make more money, I wouldn't disagree. I just don't think that all businesses will fail miserably without it.

> Do you have experience with managing brick and mortar stores?

Yes. They're small shops that serve a well-understood need for the local population and produce a sustainable income for everyone involved. No need to do much more than that for me.
>> I have around 70 wifi devices in my apartment.

I am always entertained by the line of argument that goes, "Do we know for certain this new twist will be as hugely destructive? If not, what the heck, let's find out!"

Personally, I think the burden of proof goes the other way. Especially when after 12 years of Bitcoin innovation in practice it's so far mainly useful for scams, ransomware, market manipulation, money laundering, and other kinds of light financial crime. (Plus speculation of course, but there were plenty of options for that before.) If hobbyists want to speedrun reinventing financial regulation that's ok by me, but I'd rather they do it without the collateral damage.

That's especially obvious in contrast with actual digital money efforts like MPesa, which have real user bases, scale perfectly well, and aren't ongoing ecological disasters.
You should also keep an eye on idle data usage. I had several chromecasts plugged in around the house and discovered (with my UniFi setup) that they were each using about 500MB per day each just sitting idle. That's about 15GB per chromecast per month. Not trivial when you have several of them and a 1TB cap.
