How does this work / how do you do it?
You will find no dispute from me as to whether banks actually do restrict themselves to limiting their credit creation to a ratio of their deposits. But that is how it is supposed to work.
Thank you, that is very helpful!
Been working on this for a bit over 6 months. Its a spinoff of our main site, http://everydaycarry.com which is a place where you can find what different people carry with them every day. We figured the format would work just as well for mens fashion.
That's what they said for 9.4 and 9.5 too. More likely December 2016
Um… he addressed that already:

“I could work around this by opening an incognito window, typing duckduckgo.com, and then doing a search but that's extra effort. In iOS Firefox, DuckDuckGo is a search engine option, so it avoids the issue without requiring extra effort.”
"...The report identifies stark gender and race gaps, too. The 10 largest retirement packages belong to white men, for a total of $1.4 billion. The funds of top female CEOs adds up to $280 million, while the top 10 executives of color have a combined fund of $196 million. The disparity is even greater at the bottom of the income ladder: while about two-thirds of white workers have at least some retirement savings, 62 percent of African-Americans, and 69 percent of Latinos of working age do not..."
Hmm. I'm not quite sure what you mean. I guess I had two primary motivations for writing the blog:

1. The knowledge I gained while writing the `fst` crate was difficult to obtain. I hoped to distill some of it down into a more easily consumable format so that others could learn more quickly than I could.

2. Advertise a real implementation that someone can actually use, or failing that, port to another language.
Really clever that Fastly used rsyslog at first to send purge notifications to nodes. Start simple then iterate.
I feel like the solution should really be to make Franklin (a 3 lane, one-way street with timed lights) the south->north 101 and Gough (a 3 lane, one-way street with timed lights) the north->south 101. People who live in the city already take these routes whenever they can (unless there is construction mess, which seems to be common now).

I don't love the traffic hassle being added to Van Ness, but Van Ness is already the worse option for the city so the road systems should be updated to reflect that reality. Polk St. is being turned into the bicycle fast transit route also, so when those 2 projects are finished it will be 4 side-by-side roads with different transit priorities. The key here should really be to push all the cars onto Franklin and Gough.
They're not "taking" the money, they're preventing her from spending it--freezing sufficient assets to pay them back. In this case, she apparently does still have enough to pay a high-priced attorney.

They're freezing up to $45M to pay back the amount allegedly defrauded from Medicare: http://www.csmonitor.com/USA/Justice/2015/0514/If-a-defendan...

It would reward people for spending stolen money first if only the stolen money itself could be frozen, rather than simply allowing them to freeze the amount stolen, whatever accounts they might have to freeze to do so. That's the simple, logical consequence of separating the accused person's funds in the way that's being requested by petitioner. You spend stolen money and your regular assets can't be frozen, but if you spend your own money, the stolen money can't be. That simply rewards one for spending the stolen money and not their existing assets by privileging the others from being frozen.

Thus many of the justices, from Kagan to Alito, question how petitioner's request makes any sense.

Finally, although I realize you never said it was, due to the Breaking Bad reference, I feel compelled to continue to point out that this case does not involve drugs. Instead, it involves allegations that "bribes and kickbacks were paid to prospective patients who agreed to sign up for home health care they did not need or never received" in a scheme to defraud Medicare.

The law has a substitution rule that lets them freeze sufficient funds to recover the amount taken by fraud. Prior precedent allows this. Petitioner claims a violation of their Sixth Amendment rights.

It's hard for me to see why someone with a very expensive attorney can even make this case. Just how expensive an attorney does one need before their Sixth Amendment right is satisfied?
I know that HN often doesn't care for wordplay, but the inverse of this headline is both funny and true - "Cannabis tries to Alter the Perception of Silicon Valley".
nVidia...are you listening? Uncripple your firmware so booting custom images is not a song-and-dance (you broke it in 1.4!) and at least TELL us where the UART pads are on the motherboard. If you're really cool put together an "official" Ubuntu image that runs on the TX1 and the Shield.

Head of Let's Encrypt here.

You nailed it. It's important that our certs be free because we can't automate a billing interaction. If we had to charge then sysadmins couldn't just type a command and be on their way. Automated renewal could fail because billing info was out of date. This stuff has to just work, reliably, if we're going to expect the entire Web to use TLS.
Which is why you should trust nothing and verify everything.
I miss the days when I could download software and it would just work, and people would be alarmed if that software "phoned home" for any reason.
Everything that a device does involves tradeoffs. There are many ways that iPads are simpler and just better than Macs in the areas that they excel. Adding features to the iPad without making it too complicated is hard.

You should buy a Mac if you need what a Mac gives you (or if you just want a better keyboard...). You should buy an iPad if you don't. That's Apple's story. The line of who buys what is a little fuzzy sometimes, but it's a pretty simple story.
(don't want to nitpick) Chromodynamic? As in QCD? We certainly are not probing anywhere near those regimes :) Also, conductivity is not the thing to think about, arcing has to do with dielectric breakdown. I guess my loosey-goosey explanation (less stuff to support current, as in less valence electrons to get stripped off to actually make a current from negative to positive plates) confused it a little.
And it is glorious. I love love love it.
Sweden isn't really an issue here. Only in discovering this UAV. This is about Russia providing gas to Germany.

You can't imagine a future situation where Germany would have to choose between alignment with the US or Russia, and short-term energy supply being a factor?

Who else would have the both the capability and interest to place such a UAV/remotely controlled explosion device there?

I would even say it would be incompetent of the US administration/military not to prepare for situations like these.
Ask HN: Best iOS browser for privacy?
Firefox for iOS was released today. In the Firefox post on HN, someone said that Safari is good for privacy. Is this true? Why trust an Apple proprietary app over something open source like Firefox or Ghostery? What makes Safari a pro-privacy app?

In general, Apple is a good choice for privacy?
I think he's suggesting using wget both times, not curl. So it doesn't matter what the UA is.

As other have suggested, there are still possible ways to trick you, but it's getting more and more remote.
> Why is Nvidia this dominant, and why are so many researchers using a proprietary API like Cuda when there's open alternatives?

CUDA came out first and was really good, IMO. OpenCL is also really good, but doesn't get as much love from NVIDIA. NVIDIA really hypes CUDA and when they add features, they add them to CUDA first (and OCL never in some cases).

Well, you've read my implication-arrow the wrong way. Since I don't believe that NP=co-NP (in any case), I can't believe that P=NP because Co-P=P. So if the collapse would happen (what the OP mentioned as a possibility), one implication would be NP=co-NP. I don't believe that so I can't believe in collapse.
So what are you arguing? That it is not possible to come to any conclusion regarding the earth climate without first waiting some multiple of 400k years? That it's not possible to separate a long-term 400k-year temperature variation trend from short term temperature variations due to unusual/novel forcing conditions?

The thing your hot summer day analysis is missing is a clear physical explanation that explains why the trend you are observing is occurring, and why it is going to keep occurring until 24:00. We probably don't even need the explanation to be 100% accurate for this to be useful, merely accurate to a first or second order approximation.

I believe "we" [1] have got enough understanding of the earth system to make some pretty reasonable inferences on limited data. Certainly not complete understanding, but it's not like a bunch of people are merely using e.g. some deep learning voodoo to perform regression on climate data and have literally no idea what the underlying physical processes involved might be.

Here's an example of my own: consider the geoengineering "launch a bunch of disk-shaped satellites to block x% of the sun's light from hitting the earth" thing. Let's ignore the fact that this isn't necessarily a great idea, and assume someone has gone ahead and done it. We can predict with reasonable confidence what the primary consequences of this intervention will be: less light from the sun hits the planet, planet's mean temperature lowers a bit. This behaviour won't be at all explainable as part of a 400k year planetary periodicity.

[1] not in the sense of you or i, necessarily, but the relevant scientists in the field.
Yep. It’s a feature that’s already been around for quite a while. Safari on my iPod touch (3rd generation) running iOS 5.1.1 has it.

Right, which is why that part is in the appeals court right now. (Matthew is one of my employees, so I know way more about this than most people should.)
For years Mozilla agreed with you and took that stand. Nothing happened. Nothing changed.

Continuing to take that stand won't suddenly make change happen. It hasn't worked and it won't work.

Mozilla still agrees that it's BS that we can't have Gecko on iOS. But we have to do something different.
Your US citizenship will chase you abroad, make you file more crap than and get you more closely watched by the US than can even be done illegally domestically, all while preventing you from using banks and blocking you from standard investments both in the US and abroad.

Gone are the friendly (in retrospect) days of "if you don't like us you should leave."

From other nations with sketchy governments, you can claim asylum status where you land. For US citizens, you will be assumed to be crazy if you request status. You may as well be as no US citizen is able to prove their own prosecution. If the FOIA keeps any teeth it is still ~30 years after death that a FOI request will show anyone was politically targeted by the executive branch like Martin Luther King.

It's actually a pretty consistent view. You can use Gecko through a reskinned FF clone like Palemoon or Iceweasel, but can't call it Firefox. Firefox is the UI chrome and corresponding stack. Gecko is the engine.

Some would say they're part and parcel, but it's clear now that Mozilla doesn't agree.

Ok, sounds like it's two bugs - terminals definitely shouldn't pass through a bracketed paste end-marker, and probably shouldn't pass any control characters at all (ie, no esc or ^D). Passing special control characters through the clipboard is already unreliable, so I don't think this change would break anything legitimate.

Agreed.

Same can be said about the water heather and the dishwasher. If they both failed so close one another it was either an Act-of-God (and outlier that no one ought to experience more than once, statistically speaking) or more likely the result of malign neglect. If the GP had just bought the house, he/she ought to have made a better job at surveying the infrastructure and considering repair cost in the total price. If that's the case, it reflects poorly on them to have been taken by surprise by those events.
The connection-closed problem can be solved by wrapping the code in the script within a function, then calling that function at the end of the script. Of course, that needs to be done by the software's author, but we trust the authors of our software if we're going to run it, yes?

On the other hand, if it's over SSL, you're just as well off as installing the software any other way. Although, I noticed the Drupal console installer isn't even on SSL.
Working in research as a software engineer can be very frustrating. I wrote the majority of the analysis code for one of the chapters of the IPCC 5th Assessment and yet was told my name couldn't be put anywhere as I wasn't a 'scientist'. I also consistently see people who have never written much code put in charge of projects where the majority of the work/research is writing software. These projects end up with no code repository use, poor quality control, zero testing, limited OO use - all the things that a professional would take for granted. Worse, they don't perceive the difference between a postdoc who can write code and a professional developer with years of experience. So they hire the cheaper option and end up with the usual 'ball of mud'.
Advice on growing: Get customers everything springs from this, cofounder/investors

The easiest way to do this is to do digital ads on Facebook and twitter and get installs. With installs you can count how many people are staying in your app and create a story to sell cofounders.

Also when you are saying who you are, mention any great previous things you have done. (Went to a great school? Worked at a great place?) That serves as credibility so people know you are worth talking with and working with. This might be superficial but it works.

Have you had any concrete issues recently? This may be one of these things where public perception changes slowly, unfortunately.
Makes sense. Posts on solutions promoting comprehension and immediate utility are always good to have. You seemed to have pulled it off except maybe too long. You already noted that, though.
There's a difference though. Compared to e.g. China/Russia the US have had more practise and act in a smarter way.

Instead of blocking, they allow the traffic to flow, and then implement surveillance. They have learned from silicon valley companies the value of data.

(The "education" of the citizens is then done another way, but that's a whole other story.)
Agree, a better iOS browser is indeed needed. I tried Mercury, which does what I want (esp. ad blocking), but does it too slowly.

After 2+ years, I'm still using Atomic Browser on iPhone + iPad, even though it hasn't been updated in years and now triggers some websites' warning, "You appear to be using an old unsupported version of Firefox".

For an average four-person family, a minimum 350kg of cabbages and 200kg of radishes are required during kimjang. A winter’s supply of the fermented cabbage dish also requires 3kg of garlic and 18kg of salt.

350kg/4people = 87.5kg/person
87.5kg/person / (0.25*365days in a season) = 0.96kg/person per day

That's actually quite a lot (granted I'm assuming the "season" is 1/4 of a year, and at that latitude it could be longer).

For the hell of it, that 200kg of radishes is another 0.55kg/person per day. ~3 pounds of low-caloric food per day might be plenty.

On one hand, I'm glad people are working on easier ways to install software. On the other, everyone is ignoring distro package managers.

Docker gets it right [1] and then gets it wrong [2] - depends which set of instructions you read.

I know creating distro packages and self-hosted repos is difficult, maybe we should be attacking that as a problem instead of writing hundreds of different shell scripts.

What is sentview?
It is a usage that has been fairly widespread in computing literature since at least the early 1970s, pre-dating OS/2 by at least a decade and a half (possibly more). Such abbreviations punctuated by slash have been acknowledged widely even without the realm of computing (and for decades longer) in quite a number of manuals of punctuation and style. And they're still acknowledged today. Merriam-Webster's Pocket Guide to Punctuation and New Hart's Rules give examples of slash-punctuated abbreviations including N/A, c/o, w/o, and A/C.

The amusing thing is to see it being mis-categorized a mis-spelling based upon OS/2 of all things. You could at least have picked OS/360 or something. (-:
