Did those studies gave the big picture about privacy?

Why is it that people working in the field tend to be paranoid about privacy, and people outside are not? It can't be that we are just on average more paranoid. It's more likely that we know exactly how this data can be aggregated, stored forever, analysed in the future with capabilities that don't exist yet, etc. I think most people don't understand privacy in those terms.

fair enough. apology for misreading your comment
Yeah, I just wanted to mention the ones that were specifically for investment, as the ancestral post talked about VC firms. Tech companies are known to follow more- whimsical branding schemes.
This is maintained. libui is the parent project.
Why does 1.1.1.1 block archive.is ?
I did the same in the Norwegian navy!
Chesterfield County, Va. can be generally understood as one of the most, if not the most, pro-cop (densely populated) counties in the whole country. You don’t want to be arrested there

Edit: not sure the reason for the downvotes, this fact is useful context and first-hand
Yup - I prefer async/await but that was actually a good example on optimizing multiple promises I had not though of before.
And this would be back hundred+ years in civilization, with the easiest energy extraction sources for coal/oil etc already gone. Humanity would have a very hard time following the same tech/energy ladder back to now.
Both this and your post on ArtStation look absolutely amazing!
This is ridiculous.

Most people experience fear and anxiety when approaching risk, even if it's a risk they're absolutely willing to take. This whole "fear means you're not ready" meme only discourages people experiencing normal human emotion.

Well, screw that. If you feel fear, remember that all of us do, and if you're ready go for it! Don't let other folks tell you the stars will align and you'll magically "feel right" because you won't and it's no reason to hold back.
it’s based on the size of a codebase you feel comfortable managing. for me personally, due to my emotional regulation problems, it was also based on the point in time about 1000 hours in when I stopped getting really frustrated with a problem I couldn’t solve immediately. when i learned to accept the speed bumps as part of the process and started trusting myself that I would figure it out eventually. which gave me confidence and the ability to enter a flow state more sessions than not, which allowed me to be much more efficient with my time.
+1 to both of these. That'd be a killer feature for me in both Lynx and Firefox.
As I said, exploits are out of scope for binary (i.e. executable) whitelisting and a malicious document could be opened even with binary whitelisting in place and would bypass it - but they're rare in practice.

It raises the bar for the attacker from "trick the user into running your malware" to "have a zero-day for your PDF reader + an escape for whatever sandbox the reader may be put into + fileless malware to actually do something useful after they gained initial execution on the target machine".

Again, not claiming it's unbreakable, but it stops the vast majority of attacks (allowing you to spend time defending against the rest instead of reimaging machines infected with commodity malware).
I still can't believe this paradigm of PouchDB/CouchDB did not get more popular. Seems very underrated to me.
I'd argue what he did was learn not to care about his own natural reaction to the situation, which is different. He also set ground rules to avoid making the women uncomfortable.
I was able to read it once, but subsequent re-visits try and force me to log in (I don't have an account).
>Yes, these rioters would have been dealt with quite quickly, and violently, had they not been white right-wingers.

You must not have been paying much attention to events outside your bubble recently. Many Antifa and BLM-aligned groups have spent much of the last year rioting, looting and committing arson. Throughout, they have been protected and excused by the mainstream US media and the intellectual Left, and the relatively small number of individuals that have been arrested during these events have mostly been released immediately - often to commit further violent crimes the same day.

I find that hard to square with your assertion that the protesters yesterday received preferential treatment due to their race and political leanings. As far as I can tell, the only difference in yesterday's events was that the Trump supporters didn't feel the need to burn the Capitol down.
I for one enjoyed your comment, I think it's just a heated subject and HN tends to swing up/down with the votes on those topics, no matter if you argue well or not. I don't necessarily agree with everything you said, but it's well argued in general, and now I do understand the point of view I did not understand before. So thank you!
Good. This was absolutely the right move from Facebook. Finally.
Regardless of being the right thing to do or not, it is very interesting to see a software platform banning a president of a country.

Interesting times.
Facebook has done this now because he isn't a threat anymore. Before there was a fear of imminent executive orders against Tech Giants
Title aside, the purposed solution just

- use Microsoft MRAN which did the heavy lifting of hosting archives

- use date instead of version

- install package automatically in first time (which pacman::p_load has been doing for ages) and easier to use in script level.

It's not coincidence that most package manager solutions used version instead of date to control the environment:

- A paper published on 2017 may used a date in 2017.10.01, but there is a high possibility that some of the dependency packages might be of earlier date, unless the author update packages every day/week, which is not a good habit anyway because updating too frequently will break things more frequently.

- Then how can you reproduce the environment using a date? The underlying assumption that all packages will be latest till that date simply doesn't hold.

That's why packrat/renv etc will use a lock file to record all package versions, and why you will need a project to manage libraries, because you will need to maintain different library environments and cannot install to same location.

Yet the author take installing all packages to a single location as a feature since you don't need to install same package again, and try to avoid project and prefer script as much as possible when doing reproducible research?

Defunding the police doesn't seem like a great idea anymore now, does it.
Anyone else not logged in to Facebook find the "See more of Mark Zuckerberg on Facebook" pop-up a bit disconcerting?

The first thing I tried out was different 3-grams of "Colorless green ideas sleep furiously". Here are the results

The correlation patterns and the year where the curve picks up are interesting. It would be illuminating to map the peaks.
If you don't have curl installed (e.g. Windows machine), simply type the link:
https://{your username}:{your password}@api.del.icio.us/v1/posts/all
on your address bar, and use "Save As" to store the resulting XML file. If you see just a blank page (e.g. in Chrome), select "View Source" first, then save the text.

If your security setting blocks using the http://login:pwd@... format, just login to the site and use the link without the login info.

(You can also use wget instead of curl as an alternative.)
Possible, but irrelevant given that I'm not arguing against Graham's stance. I'm sure he's right about "blub" and so on: Lisp is a tremendously useful tool in the right hands. What I find increasingly annoying are the countless acolytes that ignore the actual point and simply repeat "MACROS! MALLEABILITY! DSL!" like a vacuous mantra.
If programmers were paid in proportion to their productivity, there are quite a few who would owe me money.

Of course, if you turn back the clock far enough, there may be one or two folks out there who would say the same about me.
This is true for me--I have felt more encouraged to contribute to discussions now that the votes are hidden as opposed to before; As long as the higher voted comments bubble up to the top I don't see a reason to see the votes count with a comment.
Cant we have a "showcommentscores" option for displaying comment scores? Personally, I really (really) miss seeing comment scores, but its apparent that there are a lot of people who like HN the other way.
Thank you vaporstun, that's exactly what I think as well. Delegating of votes is not a new idea, it's used in lots of societies - I got the idea from my housing cooperative. But it quickly gets out of hand after just one level of delegation, and if people are allowed to delegate their vote and then vote, well such a system has to be electronic.

As I said, I'm sure there are ways for ambitious politicians to game the system so please try!
You can see how agreeable a comment is by how far up the page it is.

I think having the scores hidden is a good decision. It means that we concentrate on content rather than a 'karma game'.

""that is not how mysql works" with 2 Points And "that is not how mysql works" with 102 points Are not the same piece of info."

In my opinion, both of those comments are bad comments unless they further qualify the statement. I don't think karma should be used to infer whether a statement is correct.
I think most Americans would agree with you.
That's what gp comment is saying. Rewriting it for clarity:

"If you have a chattel slave, investing in teaching them new skills is not a waste of money".
In so far as VOR is the locational analogue of traditional "rotating beam" radar, but there the similarity stops. VOR has a known structure to its intended transmissions. Passive radar relies on incidental transmissions, and the system learns about any structure in the received transmissions. Passive radar has potential for much greater accuracy (better than GPS??), as it can potentially use a huge bandwidth.

As a side note, I do think the current US anti-discrimination laws are probably flawed, not because discrimination is not bad but because of problems with enforcement. I am thinking of removing them completely (not just to create exceptions) and allowing regulators to impose anti-discrimination conditions on specific companies instead.
Yep, had flashbacks of PATA configuration problems, as well :D
Yeah, lot's of places in Russia are -27F or -33C during the day. Brrrr.
At the time we were conducting this research lung cancer screening existed mostly in Europe, China and the U.S.

Note that if we had to conduct a 5 year multi site lung cancer screening trial ourselves in addition to doing the research, there would be basically no way of getting private funding for that. Those trials are very, very expensive and take several years to reach a conclusion.

Add to that the potential optics of Google “experimenting” in developing countries and the blowback risk from that...
Of course and that's constantly being brought out as a huge negative when talking about Google, Facebook, Microsoft data storage. It also needs to be clearly said for Apple as well and not just swiped under the rug underneath corporate marketing.
This kind of behavior should absolutely not be illegal. As much as we might hope for and prefer open APIs, companies must have the right to protect their APIs as they see fit.
skill: patience.

attractiveness:

1) rare.

2) It will make you react better to situations, which might make you reliable and dependable. (ex: having a fight with your wife)

value:

1) Few people are interested in being patient, so you will see things where others give up easily.

2) You will be less likely to act in the heat of the moment and consider your interests and the interest of those around you. This will make your boss, partners, etc come to see you in a different light. (ex: office environment during crunch time)

learnable:

1) any skill takes a lifetime to perfect. Acknowledge this, and be a little bit more patient today.
I've been to the one in Tucson. The boneyard tour is on a bus. In the museum hangars and outdoors there are examples of select airplanes where you can get up close. The SR71 is pretty cool.
I really like using the Pictos icon font (http://pictos.drewwilson.com/). This icon set has already been mentioned, but it should be noted that there are 3 icon image sets and then the font. The font can be used as an @font-face font on your site, which is a lightweight and very scalable way to add icons to sites and webapps. Plus, having the font icon in Photoshop makes quick mockups so easy!
We already do, self signed certificates, it is just that browsers give an untrusted certificate warning. When you really think about it, self-signed certificates are kind of misleading. The whole point of encryption is that nobody else can read your data, the problem is this kind of certificate has no hope of stopping man-in-the-middle attacks. This is because the intruder could give you a fake certificate, but you have no way of knowing whether it is actually the real one. You have to ask, is it REALLY okay to use encryption if I may not trust the certificate. SSH also has these kinds of problems, asking the user if they REALLY trust the unknown public key they are offered, but caching known ones in a file (web browsers also do this though).

With a modification we could get a better system though. If we have a trusted third-party that has a CA certified certificate (we know we can trust them), we could ask them to contact the server on our behalf and forward us the certificate. This way we know that the certificate for the server is authentic. If we then cache the certificate we will not need to ask the third-party again. The problem with this system is would there actually be anyone who would want to run it, we would need to absolutely trust them, and there isn't really any monetary gain in it (for a service this size, you would need a company to back it, in all honesty), maybe some CA would do it.

So you can already use self-signed certificates, it is just users are given a large red screen with a tiny "trust it" button.
[Discalimer: I've never looked into this before and I have absolutely no idea how the Amazon reseller market works, so this might be impossible or prohibited.]

What's stopping somebody from relisting every product that already exists in the reseller market, but raising the price a few bucks? Even if people are more likely to buy the lesser priced product, the seller has to lose since they don't actually have any products on hand or skin in the game. Better yet, they could relist the products for less than the competitors and jack up the shipping prices to skim a few bucks profit off the top of each sale (this would work if somebody sorted by item price only, instead of price + shipping).

I saw this on Twitter earlier, and quite seriously thought it was a joke at first. Seems incredible they would raise funding too; I would figure they could grow just on revenue.

I'm starting to think you could get investment for almost anything right now...
That is absolutely a fault in any social proof system. As I mentioned, upvotes need to be taken with a grain of salt.

I still hold they are far superior to nothing.

Edit: case in point: I'd REALLY like to know how many people upvoted mmaunders original comment.
Do you know how that compares with ...

Maybe we shouldn't optimize just for cost effectiveness if sentient beings are involved?
Sounds like you're against bad dynamic HTML then.

Fortunately, good dynamic HTML also exists.

And I wouldn't write off rounded rectangles as superfluous fluff. They're fairly ubiquitous in user interface design because round cornered structures are fairly common in nature. They make a UI look more "real". And decreasing the artificiality of a user interface isn't superfluous; it lets more users interoperate with the interface without feeling like they've strapped an alien abstraction onto themselves. A lot of people in the computer engineering space have no trouble working with alien abstractions for hours at a time, but it's an extremely self-selecting group. We are often at risk of believing that what is normal for us should feel normal for everybody.

Stopping working and staging demonstrations is pretty core to what unions do.
> HPE was notified by a Solid State Drive (SSD) manufacturer [...]

That's a curious bit of context. It seems to imply they're shifting some of the blame onto their manufacturer? I makes me wonder if this firmware is 100% HPE specific, or if there a 2^16 hours bug about to bite a bunch of other pipelines.
Or maybe he was just covering his tracks to throw off future investigators!
You only get upvotes for Google hate here.
Expecting vegan orthodoxy in a Burger King is strange. If they're cooked even in the same room your vegan Impossible Burger almost certainly covered in tiny grease droplets from the real meat burgers. No vent hood is perfect.
From the post-Soviet selection, Labyrinth of Reflections is a superb cyberpunk novel. Not sure if there's an official English translation though (but there is a German one).

That purpose may be "kill the old to make sure the world keeps changing, make sure new genetic experiements (ie. kids/offspring) get a chance". As we hopefully all know, nature isn't afraid to kill off a few people to get more useful experiments (how many animals die trying to have sex, for instance. That is not "necessary")

Early animals didn't age, nor did they die. Some plants don't age (they still die due to illness or trauma, but not through old age). Even "mortal" animals today are offshoots of a central cell-line that doesn't age (ovi in women get their age reset upon birth then no longer age. Sperm get their age reset upon production. This goes for all animals that age, not just for humans). So you are immortal, in the sense that some of the cells that form part of your body won't age and die like the rest of you.
There are 10X programmers.
I'll give an example. If you take an average programmer and "the best of the best" and ask them to build a relatively complex iOS app, of which neither has previous iOS experience, the best programmers WILL finish the task up to 10x faster than the average.
This is because the average programmer gets stuck on bugs, solving problems, complexity, and is slower at learning new things. The better programmer has a combination of skills that allows him/her to do the correct research and solve the problem at a much faster space. The rate of which grows as the complexity of the task increases. Thus reaching 10X.
You could write a post with a collection of these stories and a request for more :).
Still should get a warning and discussion with a human about it. And the chance to fix it. And not the entire account suspended.
I'd like to be able to choose when I die.
I found a work around - I added a link to this discussion at the end of the post. My work here is done :)
Erm... permanent groundwater contamination?
Also, methane leaking into the atmosphere.
A radio play is also tens of thousands of listeners. Compared to that, Spotify pays many orders of magnitude more than radio.
What you quoted doesn't mention an IDE at all. "extract interface" is just the name of series of steps that you can accomplish with or without an IDE.

Martin Fowler's book 'Refactoring' gives names a whole bunch of these. That might be where the op is coming from.
I've been using this a lot recently and love it. Fast, simple and VueJS-based so easy to extend.
That same page has pre-built Linux packages available for download as well. It's perfectly possible to download and run those packages and get the Windows experience without the racketeering.
No, they’ve removed the entire SysDev flow.

It was still there in October. So this is a recent thing.
Aah, Aardvark. I answered a few questions on that system, but after a while I felt I was just serving idiots who were too lazy to google the questions.
Users are free to block the execution of client-side scripts though we all know what that means: much poorer to non-functional UX in many cases. Plus, to an extent browsers can control what can be collected on the client side, e.g. location, microphone input etc. (I wish there were similar restrictions on the keyboard and mouse, maybe some day we'll see that too)

But I'd agree that letting the users use a public resource on a condition that they should allow arbitrary scripts to be executed on their side can be considered unethical.
"All regions" was already checked (even though it displayed France).

However I tried checking United States, and results are indeed better. I will try that :)
If you're walking by my house, you're in public, and you have no expectation of privacy. (Actually, that's not true -- my house isn't visible from the street, so if you're on my cameras, you're definitely on my property.)

If you're visiting me, you're on my property, ditto.

Any attempts to "fix" this will only make the world worse in the end. The people you empower to enforce your opinions about privacy in (semi-)public places will begin by exempting themselves from whatever well-intentioned rules you have in mind.
This is just hitting the nerve of Quora. :D

May be, there may be some answers which can really be helpful.
I'm also frustrated with these threads and believe they violate HN's guidelines.

As per the guidelines, articles on-topic if they "gratify one's intellectual curiosity". [0] Yet these are so often rehashed arguments attached to a personal anecdote!

Personal stories of leaving Google search for DDG, Chrome for Brave, etc. are countless, and I can't see what ideas could be presented that are novel or stimulating.

The comments are always exactly the same as well!

I wonder what are the data protection implications of such actions. Like can they really store your name and perceived actions somewhere if you aren't even associated with their service yet? Is that legal in EU? Should it even be?
They wouldn't blame Twitch for what that person did, but they would blame Twitch for continuing to host them on their site.

For example: if Twitch hosts a well-known sexual abuser and groomer who's known for taking advantage of vulnorable fans, then people will be rightfully upset with Twitch for giving them an audience.

This is why Ryan Haywood got permanently banned from Twitch. Some of his victims and many of his former fans reached out to Twitch and said "hey, this guy is an abusive and manipulative piece of shit who will take advantage of vulnerable fans if he gets the chance. Please don't provide him with a megaphone and a potential audience."
No, it just means your eligibility for a professional career may come down to whether or not a random mod on a streaming platform simply thinks it's "funny" to ban you.
