That has applied to most of the main Islamic terror groups of the last 60 years or so. Do as I say, not as I do. I'm not saying that there were not any leaders who were very devout, just that way too many seem to enjoy a significantly more relaxed lifestyle than their followers.

But that applies to most of the politicians in my country, too, so I'm not throwing stones, just making an observation.

The math version of the question would say "This little can of paint can give a single coat to 5 square metres of wall. How many cans would you need to give two coats to a room that is 4 metres by 3 metres by 2.5 metres?"

A number of people can't do this.
While immediately blocking all unknown numbers may well be excessive, I'd like a feature where all known good numbers (my "white list") go straight through, all known bad numbers (my "black list") don't even cause the phone to ring, and all other numbers go straight to voicemail. They'd be easy to review at my leisure for addition to my white or black list and the phone spammers would never again interrupt the peaceful enjoyment of my dinner.
The host of a show that is about to reveal information that can be reasonably expected to coincide with an upturn in the stock, is most certainly in a privileged position. If he acted in it, Cramer would be under the lense too.

> Parents' anxiety

Really anything is - we've all seen it extend as far as prejudices. However, the degree of the influence probably varies wildly and I'd posit that "internal stress/stressors" (such as anxieties, fears) could have the largest overall influence.
So what you're saying is that past performance is indicative of future results...

KoalaSafe: a dedicated WiFi router for parental control
Too little RAM and too little I/O for the price if you compare to VPS servers.
> why would you use landlines these days for telephone calls

Because in areas that have relatively frequent natural disasters land lines will be more reliable and repaired faster then cell service.

Then there is also the reason that I don't have cellular signal in my house without wifi.
Not that I know many artists, but Banksy shows over and over that he's the best living artist.

His work is funny, poignant, expressive, imaginative, and shows up in the most incredible places, from Gaza to a big installation a couple blocks from my home once.

Sometimes I see articles on ads, privacy, debates between public and private use of spaces, surveillance, and such, and, as fond as I am of clear, precise language, I find Banksy's artistic statements are more clear and meaningful that what I read in mainstream media.
Maybe they're counting cell calls as well? I get maybe one call a month that I would classify as spam.

Also, do you get many calls on your landline, or is it more that you get six calls a month, four of which are spammy?
I'm using hierarchical backup. Logfiles of backups could tell when and how maleware spread. And even more important, one can restore a system after infect quickly.

I'm using a detached screen for ssh master control, and an rsync script to sync servers to my backup server, from where hierarchical backup is done to USB disks in the most simple way: `cp -al` and rsync. I have 3 piles of disks. One attached, one in the shelf, and one at a neighbor and shuffle them weekly.

I'm using network scans, and keep things containerized with tight fitting firewall rules.
It's a matter of scale; the power of surveillance scales non-linearly with the degree of coverage you have. What he is talking about is the case where CCTV cameras are pretty much everywhere. Quantity has a quality all of its own.

Private photography by individuals that can't realistically pool their recordings is something entirely different.
A concise summary of just about everything wrong with the mainstream music industry.

This excerpt is particularly nice: "You want them to turn on the radio and hear Rihanna, turn on BET and see Rihanna, walk down the street and see a poster of Rihanna, look on Billboard, the iTunes chart, I want you to see Rihanna first."

Another relevant article: https://medium.com/cuepoint/why-do-all-records-sound-the-sam...

A horrific excerpt: "Two or three times a year, a company like L.A.-based Music Research Consultants Inc arrive in town, hire a hotel ballroom or lecture theatre and recruit 50 to 100 people, carefully screened for demographic relevance (they might all be white suburban housewives aged 26–40). They’re each given $65 and a perception analyzer—a little black box with one red knob and an LED display. Then, they’re played 700 seven-second clips of songs. If they turn the knob up, the song gets played. If they turn it down, it doesn’t."

Why is it so hard for indie artists these days? The world may never know. Damned Spotify.

There is no use of IMAP, it's using the Gmail API. It does poll the Gmail API frequently which is currently the recommended method of checking for new email according to Google.

Oh cool, I didn't realize git being distributed solved the communication problems that arise on an engineering team.

Back to work everyone, git is distributed version control so we don't need pull requests or gists or any kind of easy-to-read historical record that is also accessible for non-engineers.
Can we please use this as the new basic stylesheet that is used in browsers like Firefox and Chrome? Who decided that those ugly default stylesheets must be be applied to unstyled documents?

But the quality of the content is completely optimal. You are clutching at straws. Just admit it; you didn't realise the phrase was incredibly common. Just like "Soviet rocket" or "Soviet <technology>" is. There is nothing wrong with using the words Nazi or Soviet, they are not in any way offensive to anyone. Politics doesn't come into it, it is just about being precise when referring to things.
How to Save $74,427 in Graduate School
Not necessarily, assuming there's still a whole lot of economic development, growth, and innovation left before we achieve stasis. I think we've got generations left to go before we shift into a new paradigm.
Traction – By Gabriel Weinberg and Justin Mares (my Detailed Notes)
We had a landline in college for the longest time for DSL, but cellphones were already ubiquitous then - we just never bothered hooking up the phone to it.

We could still call out in case of emergency, but it freed us from receiving calls.

(On the other hand, given how many people here don't pick up unknown numbers, calling anyone except emergency services from a previously unused landline would be useless...)
> Private photography by individuals that can't realistically pool their recordings is something entirely different.

Thought experiment: what if we could?
> A work log page each day with a list of todos, notes, progress log, etc. in a personal wiki like MoinMoin.

For people working on Windows I recommend using OneNote. It can work like a wiki but you can also put your blocks of text in a multi-column fashion instead of the usual single-column text. In this way you can quickly see a bigger picture of your project.
I go to the coffeeshop with paper and pens only. Then I try to kill the ideas around what I'm working on right then and there, using a UX-centric focus. I've realized that my personality centers this paper design process, and works best if I try not to consider too many implementation decisions at this stage. The result should be something approximating a functional spec, with features and their rationale, asset lists, wireframes, etc. - a document that describes something that "should" already exist. The coffeeshop time is when I am most allowed to space out, enjoy the moment, doodle some things. What I'm really doing is batching together all the biggest emotional decisions of the day so that my remaining work is smoothed out - it's all execution without having to stop and decide.

Upon my return I turn the indicated design into Trello cards. When I want to do labor I look at the cards and pick one. Speed and terseness is essential for my retaining focus - having the paper design prevents me from compromising quality as I try to take shortcuts. If I get too much into storytelling while sitting at the computer, I may romanticize what I'm doing instead of doing it. If I have to send emails for business I try to keep a short timetable of a few minutes each; likewise with code. When I get tempted to narrate future work in my code, I deliberately make the comment barebones - a list of titles, for example, just enough to be a reminder. The cost of filling in the gaps in the comment could go to finishing the feature. If I need an additional level of documentation, that signals that I should go back to the paper design and the cards.

This is only most possible with solo work and a high level of familiarity with everything I'm doing. If I have to learn, then I have to go through a different process of playing and practicing before I can proceed so rigidly. And with team projects things are necessarily different.

To some extent, most likely, yes. But my perspective on the PRC is that the powers that be know that they will only remain in power for as long as they can provide, or rather, the illusion of them providing, a continuous increase in wealth. This in part would be why information is key in China. Assange had a very positive view of it when he said "I often say that censorship is always cause for celebration. It is always an opportunity, because it reveals fear of reform. It means that the power position is so weak that you have got to care about what people think." [1].

This is going to sound a bit weird but try treating yourself as the client.

Use some kind of issue management / agile tool online.

Track your time and then bill yourself weekly or monthly.

I can recommend Pivotal Tracker or Trello and Harvest app. Both are free for personal / small usage.
Making ReactJS Realtime with Websockets

A camera at a place is fine. Cameras that watch your every move when in public are very bad. Not a hard concept if you think about it and hardly hyperbole.
That sort of behaviour seems more correctly described as exploiting the market's instability rather than participating in the market. If you extract wealth without improving the market itself how are you a participant?

This sort of financial behaviour seems more to me like watching a football match you've bet on and shooting any player that might influence the result away from your preference then claiming you were a player in the game.

So, great if you want to extract money from others productivity but not so great for the market as an economic [in the base meaning of the word] structure.
Pretty niche, but they would likely be good for running CI for ARM. Or just for offloading tests to, it would be much better than emulation.
The speed performance of C/C++ is terrible, compared to GPU speed, which is often 50x to 100x faster. The goal has shifted and continues to shift in that direction.

C/C++ is no longer best for speed, not even close.

Now, all that matters is which language has the libraries that make it easiest to get custom code onto the GPU. Python and Lua seem to be winning there, by far.

Hello.My name is Artem. I’m the founder of remote work search service Talentboard.me
Last time we introduced interface for employers which allows for subscription to receive CVs of specialists seeking remote work. Over 300 companies subscribed to our service after that.
Today we launch candidate interface, which allows any specialist to mail their CV to the listed companies free of charge.

How it works
Fill in the form and attach your CV
We mail your CV to the listed companies.
Track mailing efficiency status from your account page and get feedback from employers.

How the mailing efficiency is calculated
Our algorithm takes into account the number of downloads and views of your CV. Employers can also rate CVs according to a 5-point scale. You end up with good feedback.
If you think that mailing efficiency isn’t high enough, you can alter your CV and see how employers react to the changes.

Thank you. And good luck with finding a new job.
Even more interesting: are you using an AV on MacOSX?

Ugh, how horrible! DDoS'ing github is like kicking a puppy in the face.
I would gladly support Inbox, but I can't currently link to a specific thread in Inbox, so clicking a notification would just dump you at the inbox of your email account.

Behind the scenes, it looks to me like Inbox is a new GUI on top of the same Gmail backend, so if the thread linking was fixed this certainly looks possible.
It should be noted (a lot of people have missed this) that not all the works there are from Banksy himself but rather a large range of artists.

WordPress Theme starter-kit meant to offer a first-class developer experience
I think that "learning to regurgitate" information is partially to blame for these type of scenarios. Kids are encouraged to "do past-papers" and other such practice-based learning techniques; while these techniques may be a component of establishing knowledge they are most certainly not a singular solution. A person who has only done past-papers only knows how to be a parrot, and a parrot can't make the creative leap from "% of X" to "X over Y as %."

People I went to school could definitely work out the paint or percentage problems, but for a really good majority of them: only because they faced those exact questions in exams/tests.
Find someone else who is equally as passionate as yourself about the project, work with them on it, and communicate regularly with them about it (preferably by-voice). Commit to well-planned and achievable deadlines. Demonstrate your work to that other person regularly.
Perhaps the UN privacy chief should actually read 1984, then he would realise how silly he sounds.
Spoofing caller ID for financial gain is illegal in the US, too, with a $10K per violation fine. But having worked in wholesale telecom a bit, no one actually cares, because no one follows up.

When you complain to your service provider, what happens is the vendor will say to the carrier sending traffic "hey calls from this number are getting us complaints, please shut it off". The call traffic just moves around or changes number. There will be several layers of resellers involved, so it's not like the resellers are being intentionally malicious and generating bad traffic, they're just relaying the calls for their customer and so on.

No one actually wants to investigate, so getting calls from a certain number to stop is usually enough to please everyone. If the FCC wanted to, they could kill this stuff in a week just by adding stronger liability rules and making carriers vet their traffic. If resellers had even a $5000 fine liability for sending bad traffic, they'd pretty quickly figure out a way to limit their exposure. But without real pressure, the FCC is happy to let things stay as they are.

No kidding! It looked like the graph was intended as a visual gag with two samples: (0, 0) and (5, 4000).

Github has certainly done an amazing PR job if that is a common perception.
I bought it. If someone (cough)Jetbrains were to offer a full blown IDE with code-navigation, refactoring tools, smart autocomplete etc etc. I would pay them 10 times as much.
That what makes me reasonable is that I think when I have to decide, and I do so in a dialectical manner looking for the objective truth, instead of referring myself to dogmas for justifying my subjective view of the world.

Now if you'll defend those who chop off heads, make genocides, defend past genocides, steal money while looking religious, oppress the minorities, disable education facilities, polarize the people, lie shamelessly for their own benefit, blow-up monuments of our past, force their views on others, commit massacres in the name of their beliefs, disrupt anybody else, homogenate the minorities, kill languages and cultures for national-fascist wills, kill innocent people for political benefits, accept bribes, become corrupt... then I don't know what can I do for you.

The aggressiveness of ignorance never ceased to amaze me.

Scholarship Places for Business of Software Conference

Eventually the paper bag makers will catch up and you'll see all the bag sizes I grew up with. There were large bag ("garbage bag" size), and a smaller version of that, a shorter version of that smaller version, a lunch bag size, and a penny candy bag (about a cup and half in volume).

I reuse all the plastic bags I get from the market until their shreds. There's a woodturner who lives on my street that recycles his plastic bags and the bottle caps from pop bottles into chisel mallets and pen turning blanks.

Paper is a step back, IMHO, but the plastic bags have to go. Too many people today litter and the things are blowing all over the place.
While I used to think similarly about CCTV, I think facial recognition software changes the game. Without it, I don't see CCTV as significantly different from the targeted monitoring of individuals we're mostly comfortable with, other than its potential to be used retroactively. But it becomes a lot more sinister when software allows the same system to track everyone at once wherever they go in public.
On my personal VPS I'm using separate encrypted partition to store version-controlled file containing list of all files (with size, last mod date, creation date etc.) and updating this file after system update. From that I know if my system was compromised. I keep another repository of all config files and scripts that automate building any non-standard components. So if I was hacked (I would assume the biggest risk is my web app) I would dump logs for later analysis and rebuild whole box from scratch in a matter of minutes. If there is nothing obvious in logs I then have my own utility that I use to detect anomalities in logs (behavioral analysis).

I also use rkhunter (that in a sense does similar thing in terms of keeping track of files being changed)

Apart from that I'm analysing logs frequently to see potential attempts.

>People whose web pages generate a lot of traffic (10TB allowed) with low CPU usage, i.e. static pages and similar.

Surely such cases are better served by offloading to a CDN. As much as I hate centralizing to one company, CloudFlare nails this pretty damn well.
The Raspberry Pi CPUs were designed for smartphones, so they have a limited USB port that was only intended to support that use case.

To the extent these sorts of boards use CPUs that are cheap because they are made in high volume for other applications, we'll continue to suffer from IO limitations for what we want.

This quick & easy specialization might be a part of what could give them market share, but I don't think this is their best shot.

While this "IoT" might be the most stupid buzzword I've ever heard, what it stands for is true: everything will be networked in the future. The only thing that matters here is that devices can talk together, and this might be their biggest shot. These days micro-controllers are already being replaced by cheap ARM's that run circles around them and are easier to develop for. This is an area where the semi-conductor industry will grow massively. If they're able to prove that their design offers the same processing power for less power, a whole lot of companies could be interested.
You will start to appreciate how much you have achieved, which features to prioritise and how much value (financially) you have put into your project.
