This should probably say "publicly available instances of the Werkzeug debugger". Werkzeug without the debugger is perfectly safe AFAIK.
I'm not sure how compromising the data is... if you're referring to the display of what people support, that's public information. For instance here's my user profile. https://www.patreon.com/user?u=632496&pat=1 you can find it with one targeted google search
A change like this making it through to production is indicative of a test failure, either automated or human. I have had the luxury of substantial human test teams on trading systems before 2008, and it was great. They wouldn't let something like this through...

MOO2 is amazing BUT that game will never be remade. I loved the unbalanced Civs. We see this in Crusader Kings 2 and Europa Universalis where the challenge level is based on who you start with. Most people HATE that and demand balanced games with equal opportunity to win with any civ. This is why all the other masters of orion games and clones have failed. The games are just not that interesting with a more complicated but still equally easy victories.

Can someone please port Masters of Orion 2 with a tweaked interface for tablets?!?!?!?

I would argue that for a company with $74 billion revenue, $500 million invested in long-term R&D is indeed little money.

Ask HN: Drone Regulations
Why don't we just fly drones over roadways?

Pros:
Navigation is easier
Easier to recover downed drones
Easier to avoid obstacles because there isn't any building in the way
Potentially make the drones follow the traffic lights

Cons:

Still flying over people somewhat
Potential to significantly slow delivery speed
Less flexibility in flight plan

It seems like this would allow Amazon and others to improve their deployment of drones while making it easier to step up to flying anywhere after they prove that they are safe and competent under this structure.

Vaata Pokkerishowd Shark Cage Season 2
Gitlab giving me an alternative is awesome and commendable. If I will be able to clone a repo from github including all of the lfs then push it all to gitlab that would be better than nothing! Is github contributing to your effort to have an lfs server that is open and free?

Let me give an example of one way it hurts the existing git ecosystem. Someone decides to include their external source dependencies for their project as tarballs using lfs (which is probably dumb and not the use case that lfs is trying to support, but people will do it nonetheless). Now I want to mirror that repository inside of my companies firewall which hosts its git repositories using just git over ssh. Without lfs, I would just do 'git clone --mirror && git push --mirror' and I internally have a mirror that is easy to keep up-to-date, is dependable, supports extending the source in a way that is easy to contribute back, etc..

Now what options do I have with lfs (outside of gitlab)? Create a tarball with all the source +lfs in it? Create a new repository that doesn't use lfs and commit the files to that? Each of these is less than ideal and makes contributing back to the project harder.

Imagine instead a world where this happened: Github.com announces that they are adding large file support to git. These large files will be using an alternative object storage, but the existing git, http, and ssh protocols will be extended to support fetching these new objects. When support for it lands in the git mainline repository, suddenly everyone will be able to take advantage of it, regardless of how they choose to host their repositories!

I admire gitlab for creating an open source server implementation. I just wish that github would have done it a different way that would have been better for the overall git community (not just github users).
you don't have to use the code, you can (and probably want to) implement the code yourself.
What I wonder is how many people were originally detained/investigated because of the WoD, but arrested/prosecuted for the non-drug offenses.
(i.e. resisting, gambling, tax evasion, etc.)

Unless you know why these people were in front of the cops to begin with, you can't speak to whether any given policy change will or won't affect arrest or imprisonment rates.

e.g. Stop-and-Frisk is a War on Terror policy, but regularly results in weapons and drug charges. Are the people ultimately sentenced for those offenses in prison because of weapon or drug laws, or anti-terror laws?

This would be great. A lot of "responsive" sites nowadays use only one image as well, the highest resolution available. So you are downloading that 4K jpeg whether you are on mobile or on a desktop.
JPEG 2000 is capable of compressing 1969x1307 images without issues. I work with JPEG 2000 codecs every day. It is commonly used in Virtual Microscopy with images in the tens of gigabytes as well as with small 256x256 MRI. I don't know why the author does not present "JPEG 2000 at this size".

Edit: I was confused since with most coders you can specify precise mean squared error optimal truncation points (called quality layers) and it should have been very easy to obtain a stream of any particular file size.

Licensed Home Cleaners in Atlanta
As someone who made a negative comment about the GPL elsewhere in this thread, I think I'll comment. I have absolutely nothing against the GPL, and use it myself. However, using the GPL for a library seems like a bad idea, because there are a lot of people, especially at companies, which won't touch the GPL. So if you license a library GPL and it's useful someone is just going to come along and reimplement it with a more liberal license. And such a waste of resources is sad to contemplate.

The ideal of the GPL was that it would force other projects to switch to GPL, but it doesn't seem to happen too much in practice because the modern world has an abundance of alternative software for any task. Think long term: chances are someone in the next 50 years will be annoyed enough to reimplement whatever you're doing.
Ok, thanks. It is better to edit in place once someone has replied.
I'm not 50 yet but seriously, where do developers work as we age. It seems like I see fewer and fewer of us past 30.
You can, but only at the same price. It's a weird system, especially when markets are located different places, so from each trader or exchange's vantage point, things are in different states. Working around this friction led to an explosion of special order types that some people argue are unfair or overly complex.

In Europe and Asia, there are competitive exchanges, but no rule to force people to route there. There are some guidelines for brokers with customer orders to have a duty of "best execution", but for proprietary traders or professionals, they can do whatever they feel is ideal.

And guess what, there are very few "trade throughs" or cases where markets invert with each other despite lacking such a rule. People usually act in their economic best interest without a law mandating they do so. If it happens, it's an arbitrage that someone will eliminate very quickly.

People tend to forget how utterly limited the capacity we have for scientific inquiry is, and how those limits shaped history and science. Before there was ever science there was philosophy, and that philosophy was shaped by religion, and the same people did all three of those things throughout history.

If you took a king from the 1200s and had him look at our scientific establishment, he'd have called them monks. From this perspective, philosophy is religion without deity, and science is just philosophy of the empirical.

Disciplines of the mind do not have to have this hard separation, its a shame cynicism and scorn have been allowed to take over the public discourse. Not everyone who looks at the philosophy of science is a quack.

I'd be surprised if they did. This seems pretty specific to their kind of high volume traffic business. And to their distributed nature of data and latency management etc. Not sure how applicable it will be to other businesses.

That said, since it is at its core a logging tool of sorts, it's possible that it's decoupled enough to put it out. But that's really stretching it.
Very, very hard. I don't see why they didn't use LGPL, as GPL will greatly increase the barrier to adoption.

FWIW, UX plays a big part in controlling adoption. Apps like OpenSignal/TextSecure for encrypted communications make the whole process about as painless as possible. I downloaded TextSecure for Android and registered my number. I made my girlfriend download OpenSignal for iOS and register her number. I opened the app and saw her on my contacts (TextSecure will tell you which of your phone contacts already appear to have the app installed) and sent her a message. Boom. We're done. All of the tedious key-exchanges and whatnot were completely behind the scenes and we never had to deal with it directly. Those options are still there, and if I ever migrate to a new phone we'll probably have to do some kind of new exchange, but otherwise the "fun" of trying to manually exchange PGP keys was completely behind the scenes.

Guys in the gym trying to "gain weight" are trying to gain muscle, not fat. Fat is easy to gain, you can get it from overeating. Naturally building muscle takes much longer. (http://scoobysworkshop.com/expectations/)
None of what you cited is actual evidence that private prisons have had an impact on incarceration rates.

I will also point out that lobbying is something every industry and interest group does in the United States, including many groups who support drug and sentencing reform. $1 million isn't even really that much.
In my experience, losing weight is very hard if you follow fad diets. In the NY tech scene, nearly every tech event has free pizza and beer. I gained a ton of weight from 2008-2012 and have finally lost it. I'm weighing in at 165 pounds now.

In 2012, I was weighing in at 215 pounds. In May of that year, I started on Tim Ferriss' Four Hour Body Slow Carb diet. It worked for a while but I plateued at 195 pounds. I figured that was it for me - that I wasn't going to be able to lose any more weight.

I told my primary care doctor about this in January of 2015 and he recommended ditching the Slow Carb Diet and tracking my calorie consumption in the app My Fitness Pal. He said to continue using My Fitness Pal until I figured out the right balance of food and exercise I needed to eat to drive weight loss or maintain my weight.

Just by guessing calories of the food I was eating, I was able to lose 30 pounds

This may seem like a pain in the ass, but it only added on 5 minutes to my daily routine.

I got a good scale (the WiThings WS-50). It not only tracks your weight, but it tracks your weight loss / weight gain trend over the last 30 days in its app.

In 2015 from CES to SXSW I dropped from 195 to 182 pounds.

From SXSW to June 1st I dropped from 182 to 169 pounds.

I stopped using the app in July and am now weighing 165 pounds.

I've put a few of my friends on to this, and they've also lost weight.

Hope this can help someone else who wants to cut through the noise of fad weight loss advice.

If you want to your code to always be free, GPL is a good choice. If your want your code to be used by everyone, including e.g. all large browsers, you really need a permissive license.

Just imagine if SQLite was GPL-only, barely anybody would use it.
Personal Experience: Implement a command line stack machine like an RPN calculator and it'll click. Every argument normally just pop's the next arg to determine its state. I purposely made myself use find for about 6 months and I still struggle with flags sometimes, especially when chaining more complex expressions.

Find is nirvana with SSD's. I can throw find commands at the root -exec'ing out to grep on my 512GB SSD very quickly.

Lastly cygwin + find is still faster then windows explorer search in my experience, especially if you have an SSD. This is a great way to start teaching yourself unix command line also.
Why do you really want to duplicate work and write, test, debug, maintain... a FLIF decoder yourself?

Also, I'm not sure how far do you have to deviate from the original code to not be covered by its license.
Step 1: Name a single piece of information* gained from philosophy that is not currently debated.

An underlying motif of the article seems to be that the fuerdai not only do not want to work hard but also that they only deserve the best jobs. One example:

"It’s no surprise that most fuerdai, after summering in Bali and wintering in the Alps, reading philosophy at Oxford and getting MBAs from Stanford, are reluctant to take over the family toothpaste cap factory."

However, at least some of the parents fortunes came from precisely working hard at menial work (e.g. owning and operating a toothpaste cap factory). For those that didn't build companies, while luck may have played a role, I suspect the parents who found their way into the upper levels of government or political jobs also had some degree of working hard or being smarter than others.
