I personally never do, but was chatting to my wife today and heard that most of her office had set google.com as their browser's home page. So they definitely see/notice changes like this.

I think that this situation is more common than most readers here like to think...

I think Apple could solve all of this by adding something as simple as a crond that executes processes at scheduled times, similar to what Marco is requesting.

I'm sure Apple would do it properly and have all apps with scheduled tasks accessible from the Preferences screen so you could disable or change the schedule of them easily.
I've been writing a book and I devoted several pages to the notion that you should always, always, use fully-digested container image references.

Which reminds me: never don't do that. Always use fully-digested references. Don't fail to use fully-digested references.
Complete agreement. It's like having two sons named Daniel. One's handsome and useless, one's smart and useful. Whenever you call for Daniel, the handsome one pushes the smart one down the stairs and gets to you first, when all you needed was the smart one to come here and figure out how to connect your microphone for you.

Some related tidbits from that book:

Like the compressed grape bricks, grape juice was perfectly legal. And making your own wine for family consumption was also legal.

So in San Francisco, many homes had basement wine cellars, and you could arrange a delivery from the grape juice truck down a chute into your wine barrel.

If you preferred fresh grapes, you could go to the Drumm Street station to pick up boxes of Napa County grapes straight off the train. Then go next door to the barrel maker and take it all home.

At this point in time we can all learn that Vue was broken by incompatible changes. The horror you see in the whole ecosystem was predictable, but Evan did not understand how destructive his strategy is.

It is really clear that the changes in Vue 3 where implemented in a way where it is simply too much of a hassle to migrate for too many people - most of the ecosystem still does not work with Vue 3.

A new version breaking old code can be bulldozered into the world only by real godzilla projects like Python - and even there it triggers years of discussion and upgrade-resistence and lots of dead projects.

As a programmer of a small JS library you can learn from the fail of Evan: breaking backward compatiility is breaking your ecosystem - the most important resource you have. Disrespecting this resource will kill you.

The Vue project nowadays can be seen as dead - many projects got that "Angular-Burn" and will never upgrade, but switch to something else.

People still hanging on are the slow crowd that get things too late - we have many of these, but there is no creativity in these people, nothing to expect, just copypasta followers.

Hopefully other projects finally learn from this sad example.

Please do not break your ecosystem. Thanks.
It was carelessness. I know Sen. Wyden has been good on this issue and other issues of digital governance. My comment came originally out of the frustrating irony that id.me was getting heat for commercializing what should be a government service when Intuit's behavior is so much more galling. I originally posted my comment attributing the quote to the IRS, then corrected the attribution to Sen. Wyden without thinking about the broader context. The sarcasm probably didn't add much to the conversation anyway; sorry.
Heroic doses of psychedelics don't seem to prevent Burners from participating in the most absurd gratuitous waste of resources that is every BM event. I'm afraid it's not a panacea.
Really wish they would change the word 'Hacked' to 'Stolen' in the title.
Which part of the quote do you think applies here? Are they eating each other or colluding? It seems to me like they're collaborating to make users safe and private. I don't see how this positively or negatively affects either company (don't think Google cares about the IP address of users querying safe browsing).

Not OP but I think this is meant to be read as one full condition, not 3 impossible things

Just mail them to yourself. Ironically, shipped mail has more legal protections than you do. Apparently making sure other people don't read my spam mail is more important than ensuring some CBP agent isn't skimming saved credentials off people's phones. Wasn't there just an article that some major company was storing their credentials on the FS in plain text on Android?

Also, I would be tempted to wipe it, then install every cryptolocker variant I can find on it. You want my data, have at it, but I wouldn't try to do too much with it... Or just overwrite it with /dev/random. Let them try to figure out how to decrypt it lol.
Not sure why English speakers are in love with German compound words but add me to the list because this phrase is wonderful
> In those taking semaglutide, the average weight loss was 15.3kg (nearly three stone), with a reduction in BMI of -5.54. The placebo group observed an average weight loss of 2.6kg (0.4 stone) with a reduction in BMI of -0.92.

This seems like an incredible difference. And 94% of participants made it through the whole study. What are the downsides here, or what am I missing? It’s an already approved medication that’s normally used in smaller doses, so only the safety in larger doses needs to be validated?
> you break the way search engines work, and you no longer have a free and open web.

The hypocrisy...
After using ember's router and react-router, I can't do client side routing with a router like this (or backbone's, or anything that is sinatra like). The layout management part of nested routes is crucial and way too hard to do with something as minimal as this.

That said, great work on this library! I'm impressed with how much functionality you guys have in such a small package.
Thanks for the snippet - make sense.
Classes are in IE11 Technical Preview and, I believe, the latest versions of V8 as well.
I guess the question is then, "What is General Intelligence?"

It's a question that CS has struggled with for decades and I haven't heard anyone give a compelling definition, certainly not one that could be tested with any confidence.
Ignoring the merits of the lawsuit, I don't see how Skiplagged could ever be a big business. If it succeeds, it will result in its own destruction: the airlines will either eliminate hidden-city ticketing (i.e. reduce the 'hub premium') or otherwise prevent people from doing this (e.g. charge people extra if they don't complete their flight).

I actually thought that airlines have always threatened to 'claw back' the fare difference from travelers that did this, but I may be mistaken.
The statement "there's evidence that a vegan diet increases testosterone, by providing more of the precursors" could use one, or better, two, supporting citations: one, to the evidence that a vegan diet increases testosterone, and two, to the evidence that consumption of precursors is sufficient to cause increases of the desired substance (and particularly in the case of testosterone). I'm aware of at least some dispute about the effectiveness of increasing consumption of precursors.

I don't have any emotional attachment to eating meat, and have eaten raw vegan and vegetarian diets before (and found most vegetarian dishes to be tastier than meat-based ones). One of the reasons I don't go in for any special diets anymore is that the health assertions in support of them often end up falling short of supporting evidence.
Well, if your data is going to the US, it'll end up in China anyway.
No, it's a coincidence. The foam was a disaster waiting to happen from day 1. The second mission after the Challenger disaster was nearly destroyed by foam. The two astronauts who inspected it in orbit were certain they were going to die. (In this case, rescue was impossible.) Miraculously, the worst damage was over an unusually sturdy part of the shuttle.

(I learned about this a few weeks ago in another HN thread. :-)
>They are at best an ally, and at worst prepared to destroy an industry for the sake of profit and domination.

You mean the iOS app industry that they created out of thin air themselves, offering the platform, an API, and a far better environment (and terms) than the god awful Java ME stores of the past?
With that logic, we should never try to make poor places better because it would attract wealthier people. No?
I don't see a reason to take that as a given. This uses node, ST uses python. Sublime plugins have a huge amount of power and python is certainly not terrible to work in.
They may be more familiar and comfortable with a laptop form factor... Also, it is foreseeable that a chrome netbook could hit $150 to $200, especially with Google subsidies. A tablet cannot go that low and still be useable...
They mention a rap video in the post, but there is no link.

I think I found the video based on a basic google search:

You say that as if it's a bad thing.

EDIT: Oh, you mean it was similar to other submissions. Fair enough.
Out of curiosity, has anyone here found a cofounder using this site?
Yeah, by "doesn't apply" I meant "that's not very useful for password hashes".
Gish has a nice multiplayer mode that reminds me of Street Fighter.
In fact the problems of supply that you mention are a demonstration of the failure of supply side economics. The whole theory is based on the idea that if you give fiscal incentives to the supply side, you will have more supply. But what we see in reality is that more fiscal benefits were provided and the industries are not responding, according to the examples you gave.

Another example is the healthcare and Pharma industry: more incentives should result in more competition and lowered costs, but exactly the opposite is happening: consolidation and higher costs.
I might have mixed both 'goals' and 'long-term planning' in that paragraph; they are not the same.

Goals are useless to us. We tried a few times to set them and just shifted them around until we stopped caring about them. Working under the constraint of goals killed our creativity.

Our long-term planning strategy is simple: is the decision we're taking today making us more resilient? Yes, or no. We apply this strategy to business, finance, marketing, technology stack choice, etc.

We will grow, we can't be four people forever, but we will be as long as we feel we offer our customers a great experience.
Glad you asked! I'd incurrage to go through this [0] guide, or watch [1] video. But briefly: ASP.NET Core policy authorization works on full trust mode when it comes to the data sent by the callers. This means unless you write code to authorize access to resources, users will have access to everything. And to authorize a single resource mentioned in an API operation, you have to write lot of code including a requirement definition, an authorization handler, and invocation of the authorizationService from the action body. Just imagine doing this for multiple resources in an operation and doing it for hundreds of API operations. All this is hard-coded which is vulnerable to omission and manual mistakes, not to mention the time you spend on writing/maintaining such code.

On the other hand, ASPSecurityKit works on zero-trust principle, which means by default users have access to nothing, and gain access to only those resources you explicitly grant. The best part is that you don't have to write any code for this protection in most cases; your code remains crisp and clean throughout.

To sad to see Y!A go. Quora used to be great 5yrs back now it's a shit. I get notifications of post like "I am earning $250k don't know what to do with my life", really. It's just essays of self boasting....

Y!A was precise in lots of things. They should have just reinvented, u mean just change the webdesign and restarted it.

Yahoo has lots of bests not sure why they are falling. Yeah they made really bad acquisitions, but it can be re-engineered to work.
It's not for nothing that the Singularity is referred to as "The Rapture of the Geeks".

In all seriousness, though, the parallels between some forms of Rapture philosophy and some forms of Singularity philosophy are pretty strong. Uploading your mind into a machine is very similar to being taken up to heaven.
To be honest. I think it's a misconception that CS is about algorithms. The science should be modeling the relationships between the environment, the desired functionality and the resulting trade-offs. There's actually a lot of this to go around, but it's not recognized enough. The electrical engineering establishment, which is more concerned with buildings specific systems and algorithms, is far more influential.

We're currently craftsmen. We have very little knowledge about building systems, except our experience and some arcane beliefs. It's time to start digging ourselves out of the stone age.
PAX is Penny Arcade Expo, a gamer festival. Lots of companies show off their games there. For at least the last few years they haven't allowed companies to have booth babes, who are generally just there to look pretty and draw crowds, as it is fairly demeaning and makes some people uncomfortable. In order to determine how people actually felt about the ban, they decided to hold a poll. These are the results of the poll.
I've read essays about Paul Romer's views before. Of course regions are poor for reasons. Poverty is the outcome of the prevailing conditions, and changing those conditions is the obvious recipe for changing the result.

But the people who are ruling the poor nations have a vested interest in the status quo, which is why the region is poor, and those organizations that pour "aid" resources in without changing the cause of the poverty also have a vested interest in not solving the problems.

Unless this changes, theorizing about changes is fruitless. Until Paul Romer or someone else has the wherewithal to MAKE changes, it's all air.
I have the same experience. Sometimes don't feel like going out, but I just force myself and I feel better after.
Running for me is a great way to deal with stress, I just feel it leaving my body. It's also made me more conscious of what I eat and how much.
I wouldn't know if I ever really got into the zone or a runner's high but I find the exercise and sense of accomplishment afterwards very satisfying.
that's where you'll end up

Having sex with your mates?
I did read your source. Did you read my post? 45 not 54k, not paid during the summer, and EVERY teacher I know works more than 50 hours week (dozens of them). The Survey you linked doesn't seem like it should be statistically accurate - it's not a random sampling of teachers, it's a pre-picked group of people, which is then culled for 'teachers' who are randomly picked.

Every salary'd job that requires a degree that I'm aware of gets benefits, and the benefits most school systems have are NOT better than average anymore. I pay less for health care, and have better retirement options at my private employer than any of the local school districts. We don't have a pension/retirement benefit (other than 401k), but school districts around here are laying teachers off and not hiring new ones because they don't have the money to pay them in the first place.

On top of that, most other professions don't require you to provide your own work supplies (ie: you get a paper to print reports on, pens/pencils and notepads, etc.), while teachers must purchase all of their non-textbook, non-furniture educational materials. Library of books, reams and reams of paper for work packets, colored paper, art supplies, science project materials (we've spent hundreds on various plants, moths, butterflies, etc. for life sciences experiments). Buying even paper and pencils for 72 kids over the course of a full school year is a non-negligble expense, especially at the salary being paid.
No prob! It was fun preparing it.
I won't support FF because I don't use it. If you want to I don't mind :)
> This is rather silly, but it's the kind of thing that comes up when environmentalists and industry lobbyists are unleashed among politicians.

Industry lobbyists - accepted. But why should environmentalists accept such stupid, environmentally harmful laws?
Thanks Steve for the immediate reply.
In C or C++, there are even more unfamiliar operators:

>>= += <<= -= *= ...
?: ! ~ ^ % ...
To clarify, by "programming" I meant the act of working in a mostly technical role and writing code / architecting systems. The contrary would be working as a PM, TPM or other product / strategy focused position.
The whole deal smells of self dealing, why was Ethos Capital selected to buy the .org registry versus an open bidding process?
Sure, but it would be useful to see if the poster in this case is pulling the idea that it cannot be done out of his arse or has some actual references and analyses of, I don't know, the wear and stresses a typical bridge undergoes, the strain and erosion certain trees have been known to handle. Or perhaps if someone had attempted it before and failed, that would be a good reference. Literally anything to show that it's not complete and utter conjecture would suffice.

The mere fact that Western Society can't or hasn't done something doesn't imply that it's impossible. It's a reasonably well known fact that the indigenous people of america had almost no encounters with any sort of plague or disease like that of the black plague, measles, or smallpox, something that would seem impossible without the knowledge of the structures of their cities and their relationship with cattle.
I think the electrical motor whine has its own charm, to which viewers will get attuned to in some time. Anyway most people watch races through televised video, which doesn't convey the sounds of the racetrack with any much fidelity, the sound of F1 broadcasts are rather dull too.
Yes, actually it does. You simply have to act like other countries in which it isn't a problem.
This is... ambitious. Very ambitious. Tempe is not a pedestrian mecca. And while it's nice that they're planning on bringing in some retail and grocery and entertainment options into the community itself, people obviously want variety and light rail only gets you so far here.

They're apparently intending to supplement this with car sharing spaces, which might help, and if you _work_ along light rail, this might be doable. They also mention they'll still have parking spaces for guests and such, so that means, ostensibly, they'll need to police them? Or just because they're not reserving spaces for residents, the demand will always outstrip the supply.

Either way, while I agree that transitioning away from dependence on individual automobiles is a noble effort, this concept has its work cut out for itself here. That being said, I have several friends who go car-free here, so...
I don't think you are getting it -- I am not talking about single user.

Whatsapp has 2 billion users, and they are pretty open that they upload entire user's phonebooks to Facebook-owned servers. We know Facebook is not worried much about privacy, so I am pretty sure that this data can be subpoenaed, sold and so on. If you care about privacy, you probably want to install something else, like Signal.

But you know what happens if you cannot get all of your friends converted at once, so you keep Whatsapp around? It will keep sending your contact list changes to Facebook, just at it is designed to.

Let me repeat this: you worry about metadata, so you want to chat to a friend via Signal. But the moment you add them, this is reported to all other apps including Facebook's Whatsapp. And there is no way to opt out of it.

How can people not notice this? How can any company call themselves "privacy friendly" and do this stuff?
brilliant comment. my new favorite quote -- right after "existence is stateful".
If a car cut Arrington off on the freeway, I get the feeling we'd have a story about how they have lots of freeways in Los Angeles, and Calacanis probably drives like a jerk.
Actually I really appreciate Weis' comments, because they're actual concrete problems and implementable solutions. (A bit-flipping attack is not particularly interesting by itself, since the server can inject gibberish any time it wants anyway, unless it can be used to insert meaningful content. But I will be happy to add both a MAC and a better nonce.)

What I don't understand is why you think any unaudited code is secure. There is no mechanism by which code from an unknown source becomes trustworthy without someone reading it, or being able to read it.

Nowhere am I suggesting that understanding the javascript source is quick or easy, but it is in fact possible, which is the difference between encrypting client-to-server vs. client-to-client. Source code you can view is not automatically trustworthy. Of course not. But it is easier to trust than code you will never be allowed to see. Can we at least agree on that much?

As far as trustworthiness, I would say: local code > remote code run on the client > remote code run on the server > closed source. This makes (a theoretically fatal-bug-free) bonchat-like system worse than PGP, but better than Facebook IM.

It sounds like your real complaint is with the "marketing", such as it is. Perhaps I should do a better job labeling it as experimental, or a proof of concept? These would be actual concrete criticisms.

Folks complaining of XSS vulnerabilities seem to be under the mistaken impression that it somehow secures you against the people you're talking to, which is not the problem it's trying to solve. Unescaped HTML chat is vulnerable to XSS, which is why you shouldn't exchange raw HTML with random strangers. You wouldn't open an HTML attachment from a stranger, but you'd open one from your good web developer friend.

(A very fair complaint is that, although XSS is irrelevant to the intended use, I should've anticipated that people would want to test/demo the basic chat features by broadly distributing passwords. This turns it into, essentially, a plain text chat with two URLs you have to enter. Which is useless, but perhaps amusing, so I've added default HTML escaping.)
