First of all, this is a beautiful piece of hardware.

I hate that I have to ask this, but do these ship with locked bootloaders? If they don't, they might be a candidate for beautiful Hackintoshes or Linux laptops. I just can't bring myself to run something that isn't unix under the hood and OSX has been a pretty decent balance of openness/unixness/ecosystem with a pretty nice looking UI and a thriving software market. I haven't tried Windows 10, but I suspect I'd be just as unhappy with it as I was with Windows 9 on a Surface.

I'm still a fan of the MacBook hardware, but a detachable screen is something you just won't see out of the Apple camp. I would love to have a laptop that converts into a tablet for light use/presentation/travel. A Hackintosh would be ideal, but I'd easily consider a Linux distro if it meant I could use something like this.

It didn't ship with USB-C ports (shame), but it sounds like you might be able to buy an upgraded "bottom" and take advantage of that when it ships (that's huge!):

I was utterly confused by the ads. So confused by the ones I saw I didn't even get that they were ads from AirBnB. I thought that hotels were actually the ones putting the ads up to slam AirBnB as in "We pay our taxes look at these AirBnB people who don't".

I am impressed by their ability to drop them so quickly. As far as I know they've already been removed around the city.

Hiya. Author here. They wouldn't tell me. Asked a lot.
Where you are with CISA, I was with CISPA. But CISA extends CISPA so that data collected from providers can be used to further a whole set of unrelated criminal investigations, which blurs the line, from trying to solve a computer security problem to building new investigative tools.

I'm not opposed in principle to new investigative tools, but I don't think debate about them should be avoided by sticking them into cybersecurity bills.

Still: virtually everything organizations like FFTF say about CISA seems to be false, and all you have to do to see how is to read the actual text of the bill.
Perform a search then change the setting to Verbatim. Right click the search bar and "Add as Keyword" or "Add as Search Engine" (depending if you are using Firefox or Chrome)

Then give it a keyword, I use "vg" for "Verbatim Google".

Then in the Navbar I can type "vg foo bar", which will search "foo bar" verbatim. Closest thing to permanent once you get used to using keywords ( which are awesome by the way :D )
You can google around for "[X animal] protects human" to find plenty of stories of apes, bears, lions, cows, elephants, even birds that have been documented. And thats just in recent english language sources - without taking into account foreign news, historic records, oral histories etc.

Vivaldi browser: first beta candidate release
Tried to get at this in the article (author here), but it's using vectors (think word2vec and seq2seq) to distill meaning and embed words and phrases into a single space that the computer can then use to reason about. From my understanding this is all done on the query end of things, so it's basically letting them do better natural language processing. It also ties into Hinton's work on "Thought Vectors".
It can be, and it's annoying, but that's still a step forward. It's trivial for a good static checker to treat all Optional references as if they were annotated with your favorite @Nonnull annotation.

>Except these aren't at all the same. With a reference, you have no good way of telling whether your reference IS nullable.

As the article mentions, we have annotations to do just that.

>Therefore it is trivial to a) train developer habits to always check before fetch, and b) enforce an isPresent check with static checks.

Again, if we're using static analysis to verify the correct use of Optional, why are we using optional at all? Why wouldn't we use static checks to verify null references can't be dereferenced, instead of hypothetical yet-to-be-implemented static checks that may not be implemented anyway?

A more relevant way to look at risk is reduction of life expectancy.

If your adult life expectancy is 78 years old
(http://www.worldlifeexpectancy.com/your-life-expectancy-by-a...) and a hot dog a day gave you a 1% chance of dying at a median age of 52, that would be a life expectancy reduction of 3 months for eating a hot dog a day. If it were a 1% chance of dying at a median age of 69, that would be a 1 month life expectancy reduction.

Ask HN: What to do about free trial abuse?
Throwaway account here:

I run an SaaS company that is often used for communication between digital agencies and their clients during website development.

A (rather large) agency signed up last month, and very quickly started using my service on one of their client's sites. They continued this kind of usage through out their free trial.

"Huzzah!" thinks me, as that's a very good indicator they'll convert to paying. Except at the end of last week their trial expired, and they didn't start paying.

Today they've signed up for another free trial, different email address, but same company, and straight away they start using my service again for the same client!

I'm reluctant to jump in and accuse them of abusing the free trial, but this is a big company, with some very high profile clients. I definitely want to say something, but not sure how to broach it, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
So it's back to the concept of a recipe where the ingredients change, but the recipe sort of stays intact. Change too many ingredients and we have an entirely different dish. I like this analogy because it's less formal and more forgiving. Just make sure to stick to it in an informal manner and not abuse the leniency provided, and you shall be fine. Technically every substance is mood altering (sugar for example), but there are some that have a marked increase on judgement and mood that it is safe to treat them as suspect. When I refer to "recipe" I mean a loose guide to run with in times of crisis.

I'm in the same camp as you. I really like this hardware but I don't want to use Windows. I don't think we'll see any good support for all of the modes it can operate in on other operating systems though at least not for a long while and then in very limited capacity.

Me not wanting to use Windows is more about unfamiliarity with what modern windows is like for a non MS centric developer. My previous experience dates back to the XP days where trying to do anything other than MS things was a chore. I _really_ like the surfacebook, maybe it's time to take another look at windows?

Denmark Just Produced 140% of Its Electricity Needs with Renewable Wind Power
I rejigged my personal website using Polymer and was thoroughly impressed. It's pretty heavyweight, mostly because I'm too cheap to precompile and minify my Javascript, but the modular approach means that I can now, finally, apply actual software engineering principles to building websites.

The documentation could be better, and you pretty much have to like Material Design, and there could be a richer set of standard widgets available, and it desperately needs a CDN, but other than that I found it really pleasant to use.

What I haven't tried is building any kind of reactive interface. It's got some support for binding elements to data, but I didn't explore that much. Anyone care to comment?
Has anyone actually done this at scale and seen how it works? We've talked about it a few times because Consul looks really cool but it doesn't appear to have the full capabilities of SmartStack yet, in particular Synapse (https://github.com/airbnb/synapse) for intelligently doing stats socket updates, intelligent reloads, or controlling how HAProxy reloads over time.

Also consul only has two levels of services right, "local" and "remote"? I'm not sure that is sufficiently powerful to describe SOA's which need to be able to differentiate services on the machine, rack, colo, datacenter, region locality? I suppose you could do what we do in SmartStack and just register the same service instance at a few different places since I think that consul can register arbitrary services.

Maybe all we need is a consul watcher in Synapse, and a consul-template for the Synapse configs, and we can get the best of all worlds. With Linux 4.4 SYN handling in Linux might even be fixed by Eric Dumazet being super hardcore (e.g. https://lwn.net/Articles/659199/) and we won't even have to worry about reloading HAProxy.
Right, but this is not one of those. It is a case of using existing infrastructure because it was already 80% built.

I can't say for sure with CS but I know it's definitely the case with StarCraft. I saw it firsthand when I was in Vegas for a competition and had the chance to spectate behind some of the competitors irl. All that I saw were on the lowest graphics settings.
> The people who voted for Allende didn't think so, and they won that election somehow.

Yes. 36.6% of the population voted for him, while a combined 63.4% voted for candidates from the conservative parties. As President, Allende flat out ignored thousands of court rulings and congressional actions. The Chilean Congress itself passed a resolution calling for his ouster, by military or other means.

If it didn't have international consequences, I'd agree with you that people should be allowed to elect politicians that will run their country into the ground. But preventing any further Soviet expansion into the Western hemisphere was imperative for the US at the time.

Given their work with the Steam Link and Steam Controller, I think you have a valid point. Steam Link supports DualShock and XBox controllers, and can stream via network from a PC located elsewhere in the house, making PC a viable competitor in the "couch gaming" space that consoles have thus far dominated.
I had a fun one with this once. It looked something like this, using your `user.getId` method:

int userId = p ? 0 : user.getId();

We spent a few hours staring at this trying to figure out why there was a `NullPointerException` on a line dealing with `int` values. Eventually realized that `thing` was really an `Integer`, causing the entire trinary to be an `Integer`, which was then being unboxed to an `int`.

Maybe. I'd just say though that one person's "designing arbitrary barriers in terms of assignments with firm due dates, etc." is another's structured approach to learning. After all, there are plenty of learning opportunities if you want total flexibility.

Of course, as you suggest, there are potentially ways to gamify and provide incentives for learning that don't as closely mimic traditional course structures.

Well, I've had a book with footnotes at the back, and that breaks it up more, because I keep flipping to the back to find out what the footnote says. (I suppose the answer is for me to not feel compelled to check out what the footnotes say...)

What you may need is something like reversing the direction of the links. That is: A footnote is a link from the main text to the note. The links (or the indications of the links) clutter up the main text, breaking the flow (or at least inviting you to do so). For a normal text with a few footnotes, that's probably the right approach. But for a story with annotations, maybe the right answer is to have the annotations have links to the text. That way, you can just read the clean, unannotated story. Or you can read the annotations and see the story text that they refer to.

An alternate approach would be to have a switch, where you could turn off the display of the annotations.

You make a good point but all the best streamers absolutely need good hardware to be able to a stream high quality video feeds at a good frame rate. In addition, they get sponsored by hardware companies to mention what hardware they're using. There is no doubt eSports is selling hardware.

That's interesting that the mice with stressed parents dealt better with stress.

You are confused. It has nothing to do with offensive. It has precisely to do with less-descriptive. Aspergers was misused by therapists for over 40 years while others in other parts of the world used it correctly. The terms I mentioned were introduced in the last 10 years to clean the mess up.

We're using a home baked solution using our own config server (https://github.com/niko/goconfd) which evaluates templates POSTed to it. Combined with some trivial shell loops over a blocking POST and a HAProxy restart this does the job sufficiently well. If anybody is interrested in the details I'm happy to elaborate.
I think compared to other nearby Sahara/Sahel countries, they were relatively rich
I mean, I wouldn't encourage anyone to use HAProxy for microservice load balancing unless they're running it on every node, at which point clients are always talking to localhost and everything is egress.

That being said, you can turn ingress into egress with an ifb. A coworker of mine created a proof of concept for using our strategy with an external facing load balancer but I don't think he ever tried it in production so I'm not sure how well it works.

To be fair I'm scared of both the iptables and tc solution on external LBs because you might never know that you're refusing connections accidentally. Linux 4.4 is coming with some patches that should help with this and afaik BSDs have done it right since the start.
