Since the amount at risk is the amount of the bid prior to yours, that should determine both the amount of any bond requirements and, if there is a sharp cutoff, the cutoff for the requirement for a bond.

It's possible that white collar crime is just hard to prosecute in general, but poor people have less opportunity to commit white collar crime. So what we really need to do is make white collar crime more accessible. /s?
Having worked with plenty of French chefs, most would consider it blasphemy to cut corners. While some do, especially in touristy areas, between the Michelin guide, Gault-Millau, le Fooding and the recent 'Fait Maison' movement its easier than ever to find a decent place to eat in Paris.

Furthermore, cooking is a real profession in France, with a solid training system in place.

I can count the amount of bad meals I've had in France on one hand (actually, only 1 was truly bad).
Sorry, I missed your reply to this. In case you do ever read this, my point is that:

(risk of an amateur hand rolling AES * risk of poor implementation by an amateur) = risk of poor implementation by an amateur + epsilon = 1

Even experts make mistakes in these things, but amateurs don't even stand a chance. An amateur will make more mistakes doing both, for sure, but there are bound to be enough catastrophic flaws that it simply doesn't even matter at that point. More real-world attackers are going to try and exploit your abstractions on top of AES than try to exploit your AES implementation itself.

If someone truly doesn't want democracy then they are participating in it. Only some theoretical person without desires could be said to not want a system that lets them express them.

"then running FVWM, KDE1 (looked like CDE, how reassuring), GNOME1 (it's squishy), KDE2, 3.5 (perfection, everything was configurable) then going back to GNOME2 (it was simple), then abandoning it all after GNOME3 and KDE4 (hmmm a cashew) and going to OSX. All the Linux desktops I used in tandem with Windows XP and 7 to "keep my hand in" both markets."

The only thing 'disappointing' in this is you didn't/didn't mention countless attempts to get E(nlightenment) running. After an overnight compile, of course!
You are interpreting to come to the conclusion "that the press didn't get the memo".

But that is ultimately the difference. One predicts a discrete universe the other the opposite. Both are true but can't be reconciled without introducing all sorts of issues.

This was an attempt to do a tl;dr. Some people will disagree with you that it's no big mystery but you both agree on the math and experimental data. And that shows two differen't "universes"

That is at least my understanding which admittedly is a lay mans understanding, but I have read enough and followed enough discussions to know that not everyone agrees with your memo characterization :)
> I don't care who you are, nobody could straight up dupe their way into $88M.

Bernie Madoff duped his way into tens of billions of dollars. His ponzi scheme worked pretty well at scale. Until it didn't.

Never underestimate what the two most powerful emotions, fear and greed, can lead even the most intelligent and sophisticated individuals to invest in.

At it relates to any specific company, assuming that there's no funny business solely on the basis that significant amounts have been invested is the product of flawed reasoning. Investors in the U.S. are defrauded to the tune of tens of dollars every year. Annual fraud related to penny stocks alone amounts to a billion-plus dollars[1].

"My personal feeling is that between 1900 and say now, Americans are more willing to reject the reasoning that gave it freedom to accept the reasoning that will take it away."

I can give several counterexamples to that claim.

Racial segregation "ended" in the United States in 1964. I would claim the country was - at least from a legislative standpoint - more free after than before it. So starting from 1900 I would claim there is a trend towards more freedom.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Civil_Rights_Act_of_1964

The recent years have seen the acceptance of more people as they are. Gay marriages are now legal which I think is a fantastic achievement in the history of human rights - no matter how long it took to get there

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Same-sex_marriage_in_the_Unite...

So, at least from the point of view of several minorities, United States seems to be more free now than ever. I don't know what the totality of the situation is, though (not an american).
This is coming just in time. I moved into my new place nearly 6 months ago (more than double the square footage) and the place is still sitting mostly empty because I haven't had the time to do anything about it. Really interested to try this out.

Does this mean it's a good idea to reset all keys/passwords for any service that was using Xen?

I don't know much about Xen, so perhaps someone else can chime in on this. This exploit says it's for PV, and not for HVM.

But Xen can apparently run both at the same time. Does this mean even if you were using HVM, and Xen had other guests using PV, you were still exploitable?
That's a fair point... that we live in a world with birth control, and where people are more likely to make a conscious decision to not have kids does change the dynamic.

But I still don't think that any of that would lead one to think that "evolution has stopped". Even if you step back to only focus on what you describe as "the lower educated, lower income" people, there's still competition for reproductive success within that group. If nothing else, sexual selection is still a factor, even if survival selection isn't as much a factor.

Another thing to consider is the "red queen" theory that human evolution and the evolution of pathogens are locked into a (more or less) permanent "arms race". I don't know that anybody knows for sure that that theory is true, but if it has merit, that's another reason to believe that we are still evolving on some level.

3) Malware/scams/etc are an entirely different problem. That doesn't mean the model is broken, it just means that there are bad actors that need to be effectively dealt with. Otherwise we could point to any industry and say it all sucks because a few bad guys did some bad stuff.
Reading the article makes it sound like apps that upload to object store backend and that they installed some pub sub system to push notifications. Takes 4 years? Seems like spin.

I interviewed there and glassdoor review is accurate for backend. No SRE and my SWE interviewers had obviously never built production scale services. Some managers had run backups. They made a big deal of custom this and custom that but you sign an nda on details. Hints are in public like engs who work there submitting patches from personal gmail for ceph though. My impression was many engs leaving and those staying taking over but not understanding the why as well as how.

Yes, you treat the developer with utmost respect even when you know from the start of the interview that they are unfit for the job.

I have interviewed at quite a few places including startups. But, never anything like this.
You MAY have power to respond later, assuming the police officer has not killed you, but that right is of little use unless you can prove that the police officer is lying about what happened, since the court will always believe their testimony over yours. Meanwhile, you are likely to have been injured, impoverished, and/or imprisoned; the best you can hope for is that the "justice" system will agree to stop punishing you. The officer will face no consequences regardless of the outcome.

Some "power" that is.

Actually you'd need December to have one extra day every year and a second extra day every 4 years.

I'll turn your hardware product idea, into a functional prototype
I run www.jibly.com, where we design and develop experimental products. Was thinking of ways to make hardware prototype development more affordable and accessible to people with cool ideas. Figured this would be a fun experiment. You will get the working prototype developed in a couple of weeks (based on the complexity of the idea) and delivered asap to your frontdoor, all for $5.000 - $12.000 (based on the complexity). If interested, contact me via the website. I have no idea how this will pan out, so feel free to give feedback thoughts or give the service a try.
We do have a project in which we teach students how to clone Code4Startup :)
How is this a fallacy?

It seems like you just cherry picked a few small sites and claim that if they can do it, everyone can.

Sure hosting costs are ridiculous cheap and now anyone can publish for next to nothing. But do you get all your content from your friends posts on Facebook? There's a reason why real original and valuable content requires dedicated staff to do it and that does cost money.

You don't look at movies and think "well that could just be done for free if they really cared about it" so why attribute that to good content that just happens to be in another medium?

Less flavorful, perhaps. "Zero nutrient", no way.

A 125 gram serving of commercial enriched white flour contains about 95 grams of carbohydrates, about 13 grams of protein, and about 1 gram of fat = 109 grams. All of those things are nutrients (about three grams of the carbs are in the form of indigestible dietary fiber, which technically isn't a nutrient, but is still good to have). In addition, it has 65% of the DV of thiamin, 57% of the DV of folate, 36% of the DV of riboflavin, 32% of the DV of iron, and several other good things.
1) We disagree.

2) No, I really don't. I didn't pay anything to access HN, or Reddit, or any of the other sites I browsed today, including ads. Somehow, the system is still working, the incessant crocodile tears of the advertising companies be damned.

3) The model is broken because this is a systemic problem, and that problem is a complete lack of vetting from the big ad networks and the sites that use them. It's entirely too easy for a random webmaster to log into Adsense/etc, get some random javascript code, slap it up on their site, and call it a day, without understanding the implications to them or their users.

With a lack of understanding comes a lack of care and/or responsibility - and without that care and responsibility, why should I hurt my privacy, attention, and security just so you can get a few pennies?
As a thought experiment, you can certainly arrange whatever initial conditions you like. We already discarded the rest of the universe, after all.

You're absolutely correct that I'm assuming the current understanding of how inertia works. It would be fascinating if we were to somehow perform the experiment and didn't get the usual result.

Your symmetry argument is excellent and well-stated. I have no complete counter.

To extend the argument: If just one astronaut is in an otherwise empty universe, can she tell whether or not she is spinning at 100 RPM by extending her arms to sense centrifugal force? The usual laws of physics would say that she can. A laser-gyro should work too. I think Mach would guess that she can't.

Because I can't make an empty universe, I don't know how to do the experiment, but it's interesting to ponder.
>> It's just bizarre.

That's what I thought about the New Yorker article about Theranos/Holmes (http://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2014/12/15/blood-simpler) a while back, where it was said about her: "Her home is a two-bedroom condo in Palo Alto, and she lives an austere life. Although she can quote Jane Austen by heart, she no longer devotes time to novels or friends, doesn’t date, doesn’t own a television, and hasn’t taken a vacation in ten years. Her refrigerator is all but empty, as she eats most of her meals at the office. She is a vegan, and several times a day she drinks a pulverized concoction of cucumber, parsley, kale, spinach, romaine lettuce, and celery."

Tor Messenger Beta: Chat Over Tor, Easily
The service works like this: The homeowner takes several pictures of the space they want to decorate — ideally a photo from each of the room’s corners. Then, these photos are uploaded to Modsy after which the homeowner takes a style quiz about their likes and dislikes. This takes about 5 minutes and basically involves clicking on photos. Then Modsy takes over. About 48 hours later, the results are delivered.

Modsy uses a technique called point cloud reconstruction. This is the easy part, Tellerman says explaining the whole process is similar to a film pipeline with a preproduction, production and post production. The homeowner provides the service with the necessary media. The company then puts it through its rendering systems that reconstructions the room in a 3D space and then a system plugs in furnishings per the homeowner’s style direction.

What what?? I thought 2d to 3d reconstruction was an ongoing computer vision problem? This talks like it is solved.

Financially secure people tend to have way less children

That's a fair point, but then we also have to ask "do they have fitter children in turn"? Sexual selection would suggest that more fit individuals seek out and mate with other more fit individuals, as each tries to maximize the fitness of the vessel carrying their genes. If that's the case, I wonder what the effect of that is, carried over multiple generations. I haven't spent a lot of time thinking about this, and I really don't have an answer, but it's worth pondering.

Remember, viable offspring is that which lives long enough to reproduce.

Just living long enough isn't enough, you also have to be able to attract a mate to reproduce with. I suspect it is the case that in modern times, sexual selection is more of a factor in human evolution than survival selection.

Nonetheless, you guys do make a good point about the wealthy/educated having less children. We humans have complicated things by creating things like birth control and by evolving our thinking minds which (in theory) allow us to override the imperative of our "selfish" genes. :-)

We're working on a new sales platform called coldminer (http://www.cold-miner.com) that unifies the entire process by including millions of built in prospecting leads, virtual call center, help desk, real time communications between sales reps, optional integrated e-commerce store for both front end purchasing as well as the option for sales reps to select inventory and make the sale from the call center, mass email capability, sales rep training and more.

We've been in the prototype phase for the last 7 months with one company using the prototype as it's sole leads source and sales platform and its helped them open over 200 new accounts and raise sales by over 200%.

We need alpha/beta testers and would love to see some other startups use it to gain traction so if anyone is interested in it let me know and we'll set you up.

It does both b2b and b2c but we're still working on the b2c aspect (a lot more data points and moving parts on the b2c side, plus a hell of a lot more leads to deal with) so we're really looking for companies that sell b2b right now but will be looking for b2c companies soon.
