Thanks e12e!

We're working on shipping a high quality set of APIs. We're doing these in parts so we can design and document them well.

Mattermost v1.1 ships on October 16 and offers incoming webhooks as a start: http://www.mattermost.org/webhooks/

You'll find a link there to an open source sample app for customizing how you want webhook events from GitLab to appear.

Mattermost incoming webhook support ships with GitLab 8.1 on October 22.

For Mattermost v1.2 (November 16), we're working on outgoing webhooks, which could offer the ability to fire off console commands.
Well, the `xs:decimal` example is quite interesting. In the XML Schema specification on xs:decimal (http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-2/#decimal), you'll see the following note:

All minimally conforming processors must support decimal numbers with a minimum of 18 decimal digits (i.e., with a totalDigits of 18).

You have 32 decimal digits in 1.0000000000000000000000000000001, so "minimally conforming processors" are, according to spec, actually free to drop everying after 17th place after comma in this case.

You say "constraints of the type are undefined". I don't see how "double-precision 64-bit format IEEE 754 value" from ECMAScript spec is lesser defined than "decimal numbers with a minimum of 18 decimal digits".
Are you sure that happens in practice? Unless you have an Extended Validation certificate, which verifies the company name, I'm not aware of any requirement against fraudulent uses, or precedent of certificates revoked because of that.

I know certificates must be revoked if the private key leaks (e.g. Heartbleed), but who is policing certificate use? Is there any place to send complaints? Can I email StartSSL or VeriSign and ask them to revoke faceb00k.com?
What is a good book for a layman to understand the architectural movements? I can't differentiate brutalism, modernism, post-modernism - all "ugly boxes" in my mind.
I only wear Bonobos pants. If you have a tall athletic build and do a lot of heavy squats and therefore have a gigantic butt/thighs, they make the one model of pants on earth that fits you off the rack.

Pants from Jcrew/Zara/H&M are definitely more fashionable but they don't come in my length, and if they fit my quads then they billow around my ankles.

Confusingly, Bonobos shirts/sports coats are cut for guys with very slender upper bodies, non-broad shoulders, and do not come in adequately tall sizes, and Jcrew's tall line of shirts fits an athletic build much better.
> I wish I knew what this bear was thinking

I dunno, put yourself in the bear's place. I think the wildlife manager might be right: the bear was wondering what the heck it was, or maybe even "I wonder if I can eat this". Most humans Mr. or Mrs. Bear encounters are up and moving, probably making noise, maybe even spraying stuff at them (be it bear spray or bullets). This one is just lying there on the ground, presenting a fine opportunity for investigation. Or maybe I'm anthropomophising the bear too much. I'm with you: I do wish I could spend ten seconds inside his little bear brain to see what was motivating him.

One thing I do know is that, despite not giving bear attacks much consideration when I'm out and about, I would never, ever, ever sleep in the open if there might be bears about, especially next to something called the Salmon River. Sure, a tent ain't going to do crap to keep a motivated bear out. But a little "out of sight, out of mind" can go a long way.
In this case a spurious query string did it. Anybody want to suggest a general way to tell if a query string can safely be stripped (i.e. without changing the page the URL points to)?
[I]n 20 years of obsessive playing with computers, I have never met a woman who I thought was as good as I am at computer bullshit. I have asked other people who I consider very good at computer bullshit whether they had met any really skilled women, and they also said no.

You must live in a very sad, homogeneous world then. I feel sorry for you.

Oh and also, as a CS theorist with a second career in VLSI microprocessor design and close-to-the-metal computer architecture who also happens to be a woman, prima facie I am pretty sure I outclass you at "computer bullshit" a hundred times over. And so (I bet) would many other women colleagues I have met over the years.

Not that my word (or anything for that matter) would change your mind, of course...
Yeah, but Bonobos isn't Gucci. And I wouldn't put them near the same category as other high end brands. The people that buy Bonobos are more likely to be people that, if driving somewhere to try something on, want to bring something home that day. Can't buy direct at Bonobos? J-Crew or Banana Republic are next door. Literally, in many cases.
Thanks for posting this! I help to produce the blog at Riot and I really hope the tech community finds it useful.

In case anyone's interested, we just posted new content this week - an overview of our RFC process, and the continuation of a Docker&Jenkins tutorial: http://engineering.riotgames.com
Following up with radio telescopes in hopes of finding evidence of technologically emitted radiation seems pretty hopeless. Encryption of signals, advanced tech, too many things get in the way of getting a conclusive signal. Just point the James Webb at it once it's up and running to get a better picture of what's observable.
On the quadrupling of the estimate from $250 million to $1 billion between 1995 and 1996, the article states:

"The cost increase was the result of detailed engineering studies conducted during the year or so after the initial estimate was released. Among other things, soil testing in the Bay had revealed that bridge pilings would need to be anchored “deeper into bedrock than expected,” she writes."

Now hindsight is 20/20 and I am not an engineer in this field, but it seems that if you're floating an estimate that isn't informed by the engineering studies necessary to give an accurate estimate then you probably shouldn't have given that initial estimate in the first place? Or at least should have given the initial estimate as a range and/or with a huge disclaimer that you might get into researching the bridge and the estimate could cost multiples more?

The Netherlands wasn't always bike friendly. There was a big push in the 70's to redesign cities and popularize cycling. It wasn't something that just happened or something that was always there.

I agree that you need to adapt the approach to the country or area. The real goal should be making the space in cities outside of buildings human friendly rather than only car friendly. This is about pedestrians, bikes, public transport, architecture, atmosphere, etc. In Sydney you could perhaps use public transport for long distances, with bikes for the last mile. This is also common in the netherlands for people who travel between cities. Or you could have electric bikes for hilly terrain and warm weather. Note that the netherlands is rainy and windy, and that's not nice for cycling either yet people still do it.
Others have pointed out they probably wouldn't live on a planet, but if they did, don't you think they could (and would have to, to be useful) focus the beams tightly enough to actually hit the planet / receivers? And even if not, they'd have to be pointed at us for us to see them.
Oh yeah... I would handle that by having node1 and node2 running at the same time, add copies to node2, delete copies from node1, and done; but that requires both nodes to be able to run at the time (which sounds like it wasn't really an option in the stack overflow post)

Does anyone else get bothered by the lack of realism in flashy mockups like this? I get that it's 15 years in the future, but are fading ellipses over-imposed on a video of Mars really going to be what NASA looks at to visualize a trajectory?

This goes for the rest of the movie, too: the astrophysicist so nerdy who doesn't understand what a boss is (do those really exist?), why does he need to go to a datacenter to plug in and run a proof verifier, or is the audience deemed so stupid as to not get it or be impressed if he were typing into his computer "coq --verify-proof maneuver.v"? I'm not saying everything needs to be accurate without a hair out of place, but it seems unlikely that moving a file from one laptop to another will animate the application that has the file open in the direction of the other laptop before popping it up there, and it hurts the movie to see it.

I feel as if this movie was a great way to educate people and get them excited about at least a little bit of the details involved in science and space exploration, and really hurt that mission by putting an Equinox gym into space and flashy unrealistic UI's everywhere.
There are some alterations that are expensive/impractical. Mostly the structural ones, like raising the drop of a pair of trousers, changing the overall silhouette, or having a sports coat's shoulders altered.
I used to be all gung-ho about dynamic websites for my personal projects (I made a custom CMS for my site once), but then I started thinking about what would happen if I disappeared and if I wanted to leave my projects for other people to maintain in an easy way (assuming they even want to), and realized static content is the way to go.

Now I try to do things client side and powered by data in JSON format instead of creating relational databases and requiring web servers for everything. If I can't copy it to a DVD and have it run in a browser without connecting to the internet, I don't consider it to be good enough.

I do have a lot of flash games I need to figure out what to do with now that it's being phased out, though :/.
What I am upset about is that after $6+ Billion spent on the new bridge, we have no greater capacity nor throughput. The toll plaza is still a traffic jam, and they only built half a bridge with no extra capacity for such a huge amount....
I like that they are trying to consider different possibilities, although I'm not personally fond of what they came up with. For example, one picture looked like ramps for bikes to go over cars, but in practice it works better for cyclists to go under (even though from an engineering standpoint it is more work to put the heavy traffic on top). I also don't want bikes to be indoors (and I primarily bike for transportation).

I like David Hembrow's blog about cycling infrastructure in the Netherlands. Here is a good post on myths and excuses about cycling infrastructure:

It is surreal to see this mentioned here. HN mindset is progressive, after all.

But to qualify this comment, I'd say that what is specifically tied to the Myth of Progress in US Military Doctrine is the bias against thinking that an opponent relying on low(er) tech can negate/overcome this disadvantage through the use of superior tactics. For reference see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Millennium_Challenge_2002
In the physical realm, perhaps the "front office" is where the public visits while the "back office" is where the behind-the-scenes decisions are made. The front office is public relations while the back office is more like administration. These business terms can then be applied to the Internet to distinguish between public-facing and internal-administrative.

Those who grew up thinking digitally are probably more likely to think in terms of internal versus external (or public and private), rather than back and front. At the same time, there is a certain nostalgia to renovating olde terminology in moderne times. "Back room" does have a cozy feeling to it.
The news talk show, founded by a Turkish-American, that you are familiar with and link to is actually meant to be a humorous reference to the idiomatic usage. The idiomatic usage used to be well known, but these days people are more familiar with the news show and the idiomatic usage is somewhat archaic now. It's not a negative reference, more a respectful acknowledgement of toughness and persistence - one doesn't want to mess with young turkish warriors unless they are ready to face a competent adversary.

Most of the higher end cotton mills don't sell to the general public but a few such as Acorn and Thomas Mason have been known to do so. Expect to pay $50-100 per yard for their fabrics. They're generally worth it, though. Also, if you're in a bigger city such as NYC, you may be able to find stores such as Tip Top Fabrics (no affiliation other than satisfied customer) that sell bolt-end remnants at discounted rates from some of the higher end mills. The selection will likely be hit-or-miss, though.

So the GGB would be substantially damaged in an 8.0 quake, but the Bay Bridge is designed to survive and be immediately accessible to emergency vehicles in an 8.5 quake.

Those seem like relatively minor differences, but (assuming the new span actually performs like designed) the Bay Bridge should easily survive an earthquake that is 3.1x larger and releases over 5x more energy than one that will "extensively damage" the Golden Gate Bridge.

I think they might be synonyms. Finding the obvious could be considered the pinnacle of insight. Of course, once it is found, it is obvious, but until someone says it, it may not be.

I agree that finding the obvious should not entitle you to "own" it or allow you to prevent others from using the insight.

Anyone who does claim that (e.g. Apple) should be ridiculed mercilessly for it.
I am always banging the "student loan debt is a big anchor holding the economy down" drum, and so this latest bit is especially disappointing for me.

The man in the article is retirement age, unemployed, and STILL cannot discharge his (ballooning out of control) student loan debt via bankruptcy or otherwise. The government is fighting to make this harder-- fighting to protect the funneling of the young generation's wealth directly to those who have far too much already.

> Yep, it is easier to make languages target DEX than suffer the pain of the NDK.

Why do you say that? Plenty of Android apps use non-trivial amounts of C/C++ code, and Dropbox has a tool called Djinni that can automatically generate JNI glue code. My guess is that if it's feasible to use pure Dex bytecode, then debugging is easier (because there's only one kind of call stack), memory can be managed more effectively (because the Dalvik/ART garbage collector can manage everything), and performance isn't impacted by the overhead of JNI. But I have nothing to back that up.
I removed the Facebook Android app because everytime I opened it it used 1MB of data.
Most movie UI's have several important restrictions that direct their look and feel as they need to be visible and mostly decipherable by the audience which usually means very large UI elements and over-explanatory graphics and text.

Real current NASA UI probably looks like Java EE / Oracle forms from the late 90's currently with allot of small texts and things that aren't really comprehensible to unfamiliar users.

So it would look more like this

alt act 34233

It's boring and meaningless and if it's boring and meaningless there's no point of putting it in the film really or investing time in it, on a side note allot of movies that do use boring or meaningless UI's use them to hide easter eggs.
I totally agree with this. I have been doing tests with Facebook's iOS app installed/uninstalled for month and without FB app, the battery is in much more better state during the day. I haven't done some crazy analysis, but noticed that removing the FB app increase my battery life for rough ~30%. I only use Safari to access the FB and I'm super happy about that. I spent less time on FB and have more battery. I highly recommend this approach to all my friends complaining about battery
The can I've got says in big bold letters on the packaging that it will spray 10 meters. The fine print of the instructions tell a different story. Something like five meters, or maybe less (don't bring my bear spray to work, so can't look). Doesn't matter, if there's a grizzly staring me down, I'm spraying that stuff as soon as the bear gets anywhere near me.

As for guns, most of my potential grizzly encounters are going to take place in Canada or someplace that involves going through Canada. Which means no gun-carrying for this U. S. citizen. Yes, technically I think it's possible, but the hassle puts it into my "Bigger Fish to Fry" bucket. I'm also probably going to be on a motorcycle, which means handgun. And from what I've been told by those that would know better than me, your handgun better be a .44 Magnum (biggest I have is a .45 ACP) or you're just going to piss the bear off.
Things I wish someone told me when I started with Go
They missed the real issue. There is no way you can actually price-shop. The providers and the insurance companies keep their final negotiated price secret. All they will let you compare is cash prices, or a select list of agreed-upon common services. It is absolutely impossible to get the bottom-line cost for any procedure to compare between providers. Beyond that, it also takes up too much time to find the medical code from one group, confirm with the provider that is the code they will use, talk to a third group to see what the cash price is, and then contact your insurer to make sure they actually cover that code.
There's a few things that seem key to this:
Leaving "hey siri" and "ok google" on at all times, requires relatively noise free environment. Also, with the always on feature, you need to properly address one's phone. Simply changing Siri to "Stupidhead" would render the always on attack moot.

It's interesting but without direct access, there's only minimal information to be gleaned as commanding Siri to look up the most recent call would only allow the attack to see the most recent call with a direct LOS.

Also, this recap can be skipped by going to the original wired article:
http://www.wired.com/2015/10/this-radio-trick-silently-hacks...
I did notice recently that if you launch Facebook and put your ear to the bottom of your iPhone you can hear that the audio is on (white noise like when turning volume way up on a stereo that isn't playing.

Just now I confirmed that's happening and then home-screened to bail out, and after a second or two the white noise stops. Seems like it should be pretty easy to do similar experiments aimed at proving the OP's hypothesis.

[Edit: I tried the same experiment after playing videos, etc. Speaker still sounds like it loses power after bouncing back to the home screen... so while there might be games being played with regard to the app's activity and battery usage... I'm not really compelled by the specific hypothesis put forth in this article as to how]

[Edit: Of course, still begs the question "Why is the speaker getting power at all?". I haven't found other apps that appear to do this.]

> Can I email StartSSL or VeriSign and ask them to revoke faceb00k.com?

I think so, yes. I don't have any direct evidence to back this, but my intuition is yes, they would contact the intermediary cert issuer and request the certificate be revoked due to the fraud (assuming Verisign or StartSSL were in the trust chain of the cert).

Check out Trustico's website [0], where they say "Your domain name may be blacklisted and internet users will be wary to transact with your web site."
