Share your best Emacs Org Mode tips
I've been using Org mode for about a year now, mainly as my diary, but also for organizing work using the weekly agenda. I feel my invested time have paid back big time, after beating the initial learning curve. Do you use Org mode ? You have any tips about how to use lists, tags, properties etc ?

They can't correlate that behavior with you as an individual if you don't provide any personal information to the carrier. You could also just run your traffic through a VPN and avoid all of this.
An analysis isn't a human being. It doesn't have emotions or feelings or any expectation or respect. By definition, it can't be "insulted". It can only be criticized (even if the criticism is over the top or flat out wrong).

How do you know? I know a lot about brains, I like brains and I am not certain that I can quantify the degree of suffering likely to be felt by an ant.
The program counter doesn't typically appear in the programming languages that have (or don't have) goto. You're talking about implementation, but I think people typically criticize goto in terms of semantics (iirc, I can include Djikstra in that camp, but I never made a super-careful study of that paper).
I think it is far worse than that.

I have chronic health problems and was abused as a child. Here are a few of my opinions:

A very high percentage of people in "helping" professions have a deep need to be needed. It strongly inclines them to want to help you in a way that keeps you in need of a crutch and subtly but actively discourages or prevents you from ever standing on your own two feet.

Many programs have such unhealthy paradigms, you are better off avoiding them if at all possible.

The way we define services has a tendency to entrench the problem.

I am currently homeless and have had a college class on homelessness and public policy and generally read a fair amount over the years about things like the origin of American welfare. I am gradually resolving my very challenging personal problems -- getting healthier, paying down debt, earning more money -- and I run a website aimed at helping homeless people keep their freedom, dignity and agency in the face of a really broken system of assistance.
I'll preface this response with the acknowledgement that the world is not ideal, and there are some fundamental problems underlying how classes are structured (largely due to the fact that evaluations are based on the achievement of the lowest performers) which poses institutional obstacles to efficient work assignments.

That being said, given the (in practice flawed) assumption that the work being assigned is something your child needs, it's a disservice to say some other home life takes higher priority than education. This is especially true given the additive nature of many topics. Imagine, in a contrived example, you veto the addition worksheet despite your child needing practice. How is he/she supposed to keep up in the next week's topic of multiplication?

In practice this falls apart if you have a high performing child, but, campaigning for funding for gifted programs or ,if you're particularly lucky, working with the teachers to get customized work is a far better investment than lobbying for the ability to just ignore the work.

They are probably the same people who complained when their teachers in college gave them "C"'s because they didn't properly attribute, also. I guess some people don't ever learn to be nice citizens.

(Note: Yes, I know the MIT license doesn't require it. I can read. But reading the Medium article, they KNEW they were replacing minimaxir, etc with "The Author". Doing this is really showing their ass.)
I'm not saying we should have NO sugar in our bread. But it's to the point where if you google "Why is American bread so sweet?" you'll find countless examples of Europeans comparing American bread to cake.

This is well beyond the scope of "feeding the yeast".
Not only this but can you be charged with destruction of evidence if there's no feasible way to prove that what's in the safe can actually incriminate you in a crime? In other words, if you don't know what's in the safe and you don't know what you don't know then you can't know what you don't know which means you can't know it is even evidence as it may not even be related or within the scope of the investigation.

Homework is an abomination. It steals time a child could be spending with their parents, siblings, friends, etc. You spend all day in a classroom, sedentary, which isn't healthy to begin with, and then when you go home, you're expected to sit more. Children need to play and explore the world. Schools are failing if they have this overflow of work that must be sent home.
That's how I've always done it; not sure if it's correct though.
On an unrelated note, some comments on the visualization...

By visualizing the temporal position of posts matching a particular criteria, I suspect the author has accidentally just visualized the temporal position of all posts. There is no correlation between the criteria and the visualization.

It's a variant of the heatmap visualization error explained by xkcd[1]

I didn't see anything from the side of parents who want more homework. Why are some parents asking for more? Are their children misbehaving? Are their children not learning the material?
I am guessing that homework doesn't automatically make up for a school's or teachers' shortcomings.
If only there was something in there that could be easily cut and is significantly less important than homework...

Publicizing who my customers are for validation
We are getting a few big name companies, organizations and universities to buy our product. I'm talking about world wide known brands. I'd love to have a page showcasing the list of high profile customers, with their logos and so on, but of course, I can't use the logo without permission.

I asked a few and they all rejected it, many on the basis of existing policies they have to stop this from happening. We certainly could use the validation for PR. Any recommendations on how to approach customers for this? Is it legal for me to use the name of this customers, without their logos, without requesting approval?

My product is Screensaver Ninja (http://Screensaver.Ninja), which I though was going to popular amongst small companies and individuals but it turned out to be more popular with big brand companies.

QJump: Guaranteed latency in datacenter networks
Video review: Google's Nexus 6P sets low price for top-tier Android 6.0 phone
Those looking for a powerful flagship smartphone with a great camera built with the top components and materials will want a Nexus 6P. Smartphones with high-quality cameras with near-SLR quality have been built before, but not at the Nexus 6P's $500 entry price. Nexus phones are a good choice because this category of Android phones get regular software updates directly from Google.

The information us excellent for a someone like .e who knows nothing about M&A.

Are you going to continue using the MIT license in the future? Or will you use a more restrictive license to encourage people to give you more explicit attribution in the future?

Just following the minimum requirements of a license may not be a nice thing to do, but if you're going to be upset because someone did something you said they could but that you didn't really want them too, I can't really sympathize.
This is my only C program I've ever written. A second goal was to pick a project to force me to learn C. I'm a run-time BASIC guy from the 80s, never used a cross developed or compiled language before!
It's not so weird.

When you run a business, you avoid criticising any company you rely on. You don't start a war with credit card companies, your hosting provider, your lawyers, your accountants, your insurance company, your building management or others unless you're prepared for them to give you bad service or drop you entirely.

Apple have the power to make and break small businesses dependent on the App Store which sucks but that power isn't unique (most of the services I listed above could do the same thing). If you can't be diplomatic to essential business partners, you're going to get abandoned.

Schooling is not education, only a facsimile of it.
Let's say I read CSS Tricks. However, I don't give a crap about any articles written about Wordpress or PHP because I do not deal with Wordpress or PHP.

Using an RSS Reader I can filter out wordpress articles and only get alerted of new blogs that I'm interested in. This also means I don't need to check CSS Tricks daily to see if anything new has been posted, as my RSS Reader will alert me when anything is posted.

I use RSS as a "partial subscribe". Something I wish I could do on other services (e.g Youtube, subscribing only to a specific playlist)
The GP is talking about the percentage of their income being spent on taxes.

If you make 1 million dollars per year, and I make 100k, and my taxes are 30k per year while yours are 100k/year (numbers made up), you'd be paying more total taxes, and a larger slice of the total tax dollars paid.

However, my taxes are 30% of my income, whereas yours would be only 10% of your income. If we paid at the same "band" of taxes, you would be paying $300k instead of $100k.

Because the tax bands tax you at a lower percent the higher up you go, making more money leads to less proportion of taxes.

Consider also that the people who pay the most tax (in dollars) often have a substantial amount of their wealth in real estate, stocks, or stock options, rather than cash income, and those are all taxed differently than the kind of income that most of us have.
The elephant in the room is how do you measure fairness? We devolve into measuring the end results in terms of equality which ultimately provide a negative feedback loop and move the conversation and solutions into trying to make things equal instead of fair.

Governmental policy devolves into this to the detriment of everyone involved.

Entire political campaigns are centered around not making things "fair" but "equal". Watch and see who communities vote for and why they vote for them; it is closely related to the child who prefers to have one and everyone else zero as opposed to everyone getting two.
Alive v1.0 – Live Programming for C#
Serious question: what's wrong with a rubber-tube stethoscope?
This is commonplace in any situation where there is a company holds so much dominance in an industry, though. I was immediately reminded of how game development studios were petrified by the idea of criticizing Nintendo in the late 80’s.

I think the real problem is a lack of standardization in humans in this country. If all children were identical in form and function, as well as all parents, it would be dramatically more efficient to teach them.

Whoa, this is a pressing situation, here.
I found his class very ho-hum -- it's mostly Tufte quietly rambling over a number of examples and promoting some of his ideas (artistic and otherwise).

I went with a small group and many had never heard of Tufte before. They were so turned off by the class that they swore him off before it was over.

Later, many of them came around after they read one of his books, which are excellent and his work has slowly become very influential with my group.

I think what Tufte does very well, is to bring a well reasoned critical eye to deconstructing other people's information displays. I don't think he's as good at synthesizing information displays -- his major work being the sparkline and his books. As a result he can come across as dismissive of other people's hard work.

The people who got the most out of his class seemed to be those that were already quite familiar with his method of critical review. I don't think I would bring people to his class who weren't already quite familiar with his methods.
I think it's clever (and, in this case, appropriate) that you linked to the anchor for upvoting. :) I didn't know that was possible.
Derivatives absolutely don't have to be MIT as well. MIT/X11 is not viral. It only requires attribution, but you are free to modify, redistribute and even commercialize as you like, and to re-license your derivative work, as long as you simply give attribution for the original work.

But it doesn't mean "claim it as your own", as long as it's not significantly altered.
Thanks for the link!

Nobody could ever prove how the author accessed it. It just isn't even an issue, legally or otherwise.

Setting aside the fact that it is a non-issue, in any case many news agencies have various DB subscriptions, most public libraries have DB access, most universities have 'reader' accounts which grant access to these DBs for like $100 a year, etc.

Any reporter who wants to access an article legitimately can easily do so. Else, they really do not belong in the profession of journalism, which relies on practitioners being resourceful and researching things in order to convey accurate information to others.
But I didn't do it to break the law, I did it to prevent foreign hacker attacks. I have no part whatsoever in any conspiracy, every action of mine was legally justified! There's very very clear and obvious legal uses of this functionality. You need to prove the opposite claim for every single participant separately to throw them in jail, because there's otherwise no way to show they had anything to do with anything illegal. Due process and all that.
I wonder how many of those people are counting the calories in their own feces to get an accurate measurement...
It's a matter of scale. If you're trying to compute absurdly large numbers, you'd be a fool to use addition, even if it is fundamental to some other operation you want to use. Goto is problematic not because it can't be used effectively, but because it won't be. Because it doesn't encapsulate a powerful enough abstraction to make computers smarter or programs easier to write and understand.

If you have to write a goto, you can drop into assembly. Don't add it to your high-level language, because it doesn't add anything there, it just gets in the way.

"It's the primitive from which all higher level control flow is ultimately derived."

There are a billion alternative primitives from which you could derive all the same things. Goto is not special. And it is so primitive, it is not hard to write something else and have a compiler translate it. You shouldn't need goto anymore than you should need access to registers.

What would that accomplish? The way telcos already attempted to do that is to assign higher priority to services (like IPTV) of preferred partners (or of course their own). Encryption just means that your companies service gets traffic shaped into oblivion.
Carriers have been known to add unblockable identifiers to your mobile traffic, and sell that data.
May I Define Your Attention, Please?
Just to throw another perspective in here. I once wrote a tool for a teacher to detect copied code for CS assignments for some extra credit. Every step you take to dig deeper just led to more similarity -- things like normalizing variable names. At one point it looked like 80% of the class had turned in the same assignment. Granted these where toy problems.

The heatmap layout you're saying people copied has been done over and over again by almost everyone who's done data visualization on time series data. Is not it possible you looked at the same StackOverflow post?

Even if they where copying you I'd be ecstatic - you've inspired a bunch of people to pick up a dataset on go play around with it. That's wonderful thing, because the world needs more people doing this.

I'd like to think the founding fathers were some of the smartest and most forward-thinking people of their time and they most certainly assumed that eventually people would need these protections. This is tantamount to the 2nd amendment argument where people assert that the founding fathers didn't intend for it to apply to today's weapons and the counter to that usually is that they didn't know the internet would ever exist yet things written on the internet are still protected speech so both are moot points and the protections still, and should, exist and be honored.

I think this is probably both caused by, and in order to take advantage of, personal subconscious bias. Not only do people expect assistants are going to be female, but actually notice when they're male. It's just another small facet of the huge gender inequality problem. Worth noting that you can rename clara if you pay enough and the only competitor that I know of (https://x.ai/) has male and female options.
The problem with homework is it's used as a form of accountability. My French teacher used to joke when collecting papers : "Ou est votre dette a la societe?" (Apologies for missing accents.)

Of course what it should be is like at university. The professor can't spend all his time with you, so you get a rough list of what you should know about. It's then up to you to judge whether you need to read a bit more or a bit less.

The point is judgement. You can figure out when you understand something. You don't need a whole page of quadratic equations, in fact you don't understand it if you get to the end and think you need more. OTOH, if you only do the first two and you think you get it, you might be enlightened when you look at some further questions.

As a parent, it means instead of asking the teacher for more homework, which will annoy them, you can simply ask your kid some enlightening questions. It's probably a lot more interesting for them that way.
And that doesn't violate the requirement to narrow the search and describe exactly what they'll look for?

You do add yourself to the copyright list. If your contributions are accepted, you are considered an author and the other authors must get your permission before changing the license.

This is why a lot of projects (ie clojure) require some sort of contributor agreement so that the original authors can retain control while still accepting contributions.
Games are frequently something that most instances of arts culture struggle with - commercial. This means that trying to treat games as artistic artifacts, made of beauty and aesthetics, free of the drudgery of economics, is a misguided thing at best.

Games are not generally produced as solely artistic works. The economic aspect is significant. Attempting to discuss and critique games as solely artistic artifacts means missing one of largest influences on any such artifact. It's like discussing architecture without admitting that materials and physics and humans impose limits.
To Reach Seniors, Tech Startups Must First Relate to Them
Oh it can definitely be applied to computer science classes. At my college, most computer science classes had optional lectures and were heavily project based. Some of the slower or less experienced students went to lecture (usually less than 1/3 of the class) but most students skipped it. Instead, we would work on our projects and go to office hours for one on one assistance with a ta or prof if we needed help. This was expected behavior and they made tons of hours open to the students so it worked great.
