How about _trying_ a remote job - being intimidated means you don't _think_ you are fit for such job, on the other hand it's your own perception. If you are depressed, believe me your perception is strongly biased negatively ;-)

I know nothing about you, but your comment hit me. For some reason I write this - I hope it won't hurt you in any way.
Arch, finally a distro that is stable BECAUSE it's cutting edge.

You're running just about the latest of everything, and you pick and choose everything you want to run. It becomes easy to try every window manager and desktop environment, because they are all there (and up to date!).
Respectfully, I don't buy it and I think the the marketplace is bearing this out. Local advertising was temporarily disrupted when Groupon owned the market (eyeballs) and offered a product that businesses thought was superior to traditional forms of local advertising.

Once competition fragmented the market and businesses realized that 50% off coupons attracted bargain hunters rather than loyal customers, there wasn't any going back.
Stack doesn't generally scale up with RAM. GCC and Clang can both do some tail call optimization, and I find rewriting code to use an accumulator isn't very hard on the eyes.
The sheer number of different parties with the ability to record everyone's conversations is getting very excessive. The microphones in cell phones and laptops are bad enough; can we please note add any more? This one seems relatively easy to push back against: if you visit someone and they have one plugged in, treat it as a faux pas.
Separation of concerns, and individually useful APIs that DWTADIW and out of which a more diverse set of things can be constructed. WebRTC is a monolithic all-or-nothing blob of capabilities tied too closely to specific use cases like video chat.

A UDP API for sockets (with user approval required and some restricrions), then perhaps ICE or maybe that should be in JS. Then an audio/video sampling and compression API.
I disagree. For every Fedora release, the Documentation Project prepares a new version of the System Administrator's Guide[1] and of five other high-quality manuals. These manuals are usually up-to-date, accurate and comprehensive, and since they are maintained in the DocBook format (which is very superior to wikimarkup for technical documents), they can be converted into HTML (for the version on docs.fedoraproject.org), PDF (for printing or viewing in a PDF reader) and EPUB (so I can put the guides on a e-reader and read them comfortably). The documentation is even translated in multiple languages.

Debian has documentation of similar quality, with the Debian Reference[2] and the Debian Administrator's Handbook[3], which is more up-to-date. Also in DocBook, and all I said about the Fedora documentation applies as well.

This will not be a popular opinion, but I don't think Arch Linux's documentation compares to Debian's and Fedora's.

Why There's Still Not a Human on Mars
Yeah. Cryptocurrencies are not on the radar of anyone transacting even a few orders of magnitude less than this. I'm not sure why the Party chose to expose this ring right now but someone up-to-date on PRC politics certainly will be able to fill us in on what triggered this event.

Undoubtedly, this has been going on for a long, long time. My friends wife made a ton of money selling "old money" houses to the Chinese-New-Rich in affluent suburbs of New England. I'm sure those on the West Coast heard similar stories re: Vancouver and it's property boom as a result of the same demographic.

This is just like any 'raiding the coffers' situation by an incumbent power. A destabilizing event occurs (the fall of the USSR, the laxer economic policies within the PRC, the overthrow of the Shah, the US profiteering off cocaine for arms, etc). The fall of the USSR led to a few, well-connected dozen families getting rich off the oil money to the point of casually buying UK football teams.

You can be 100% assured that there will be some scapegoats taking a fall, a fewer number of people in the party will be asked to fall on the sword. I'd bet money that this is just another orchestrated sacrifice to business-as-usual. We'd have to get access to all those MNC-bank records to really figure out how much expatriated yuan left for other markets.

For the time being, they'll just effectively tender IOUs until the dust settles[1]. It's been happening since before the modern economies emerged (Dutch coffee shops and Lloyds Underwriting ship insurance is arguably that point). Investment banks still trade amongst themselves in a similar fashion.

It's probably naive, but somehow I feel better about the phone because it has power and bandwidth limitations that would quickly become apparent if it started trying to send all this data somewhere.

I'm much more concerned about devices that are wired in permanently with power and network.
Collaborative document for Standup and other meetings
At a company I worked at where we were all remote (distributed company), we used google doc for meetings. The mention of my using of g docs for todo list in the "How do you track issues, todos, features" thread reminded me that not everybody realise the power of collaborative editing.

At that particular company, one team started doing this, then as people moved from team to team, every team got on the bandwagon adding some improvements to the process. This is how we used it:

- for larger meeting, typically weekly, spend spend time before the meeting updating your section/chapter, eg: what your team's been doing

- for smaller meeting like daily standups, spend 5 minutes at the beginning of the meeting for everybody to add their chapter and bullet points of what they want to bring up

- spend the next 5 minutes of the meeting for everybody to review the document and add questions for the other members/teams

- proceed with the meeting in the order of the document giving time for the current speaker to let them highlight the points they want to and others to ask extra question

- as the meeting goes on, add/edit what's already written to create a valuable minute

Doing this allowed us to have faster and much more efficient meetings. Being to read the main points allowed us to spend time talking about the more important one while not missing the smaller ones, spending a few minutes writing things down means that you rarely forget what you want to talk about so don't have to go back to speakers who already had their turn, the document is an instant minute needing very little editing to make it readable and useful and requiring no time to be spent on it after the meeting.

Seriously, try it, you have to try it to realise how powerful this is.
It's probably an import from an early VCS for, as you say, novelty's sake. They don't seemed to be connected to another other history (although it's very hard to tell. Genuine question: why are github's revision visualisation tools so shoddy? Getting from 'here is a checkin' to 'show me the history of one specific file' seems far too hard...)

Here's one of my repos: http://first-commit.com/davidgiven/ack

First checkin 1984. That's real history, too; those files, or their descendants, are still in the current snapshot. Incidentally, not only does that commit predate git, or the SVN repository I converted it from, but it predates CVS itself... I've seen suggestions that the pile of shell scripts which became CVS was actually written for that project!

Not my code, I should add, I'm just looking after it. It's Andy Tanenbaum and Cerial Jacobs' compiler toolchain, the Amsterdam Compiler Kit. Portable, platform independent ANSI & K&R C, Pascal, Modula-2, Occam and Algol-68 development kit, complete with linkers, assemblers and libc...
Orbit of the Moon around the Sun
No? You could buy your own server rack and stick it in your basement if you wanted. Server hardware isn't going away. But that's usually more expensive than renting a cloud instance—not because server hardware is expensive (you can get used servers on ebay for prices competitive to used gaming PCs)—but because cloud instances are so cheap.
We don't do this because competition doesn't work that way in the restaurant industry. Location in most cases trumps content. When I look to eat out, I choose amongst the restaurants close to me. Occasionally there's a restaurant I might drive more than ten miles to eat at. But it would be foolish for any restaurant to specifically cater to the long tail when 90% the money is in a 5 mile radius.
I'm happy to lose a bit of privacy for something my kids can use so easily. One of the lesser known features is its wikipedia key word. If you say wikipedia followed by what you are looking up, it will read the wiki entry for you. It's a perfect fall back plan for when it doesn't understand a question otherwise.
Well, they say to-mah-to in Australia. However, they also say po-tay-to. I don't know of anywhere that it is pronounced po-tah-to, but I wouldn't rule it out.

Cmder – Console Emulator for Windows
Interesting project and it's nice to see work done on something compact and minimalist.

But I don't like that CSS classes are used to bind data. I know other libraries do this too but I don't think it's a good idea.

CSS classes exist for styling purposes. It's hard enough as it is to keep track of classes, where they're used, how they're used etc... on anything but the most trivial project. Using CSS classes for both style and data binding would result in a maintenance nightmare, IMO.

Why not use something like: <div class="some-style" data-binding="product-name">

It's perfectly legit HTML and maintains separation of concerns.
You're right - the yuan trades at a discount in bitcoin.
Even if all you have is the ability to load web pages in Mobile Safari, you can still just set up a websocket SSH gateway on your server and then serve an SSH-over-HTTPS client to the device. You'd have to kill a lot of the modern web to create a device completely incapable of being used (as a thin client/glass terminal) for tinkering.
How much does this cost?
Interesting study. It is kind of a reinforcement to the progressive policymakers' point of view that cash programs work and even there will be people who cheats the system, they will be whatever the system you choose.

I feel curious about what conclusions would obtain from a similar study in European countries, which are well-known by their welfare programs.
There is normally no deep recursion in compiling a program.
The compiler would recurse over recursive program constructs, like nested if statements. Programmers normally do not nest constructs very deep.
It's weird that he arrived in September and seems to have done nothing but sit around until December when he was arrested. Why would someone import 70-some workers and then have them do nothing for months?

1) All else being equal, I would go for a startup. But that's only if all else is equal. What I mean is that if you have offers from top companies, and offers from the hottest startups, you should prefer the startup. The name recognition will be the same (I'm pretty sure any tech recruiter will have heard of, say, Zenefits or something like that), so that's not really an issue. The pay profile will be different, but the best time to take risks is when you're young. Obviously if you can only get offers at mediocre startups you don't believe in, then you should prefer top-company offers.

2) If you don't already have a big name on your resume (through internships, for example), it may be helpful for your first job out of college to be at a brand-name company, if only for 1-2 years.

It could still be condensation clinging to the agar. He said he put the agar in a bag above a heater. Things probably got pretty steamy in there.

The only other explanation I can think of is that those bacteria are motile but I find it odd that they would all move "away" from the center of the keyboard.
Threads in Clojure
In threads like this, Hacker News is usually in favour of the privacy invasion, and it's happening here right now. I wish everyone would understand that the question isn't about your own personal privacy ("I'm willing to give that up" says everybody).

The question is about our society, and government+corporate control. In a society where everyone accepts 5-10 different listening devices into their homes, a system is being built to listen to every thing we say and watch everything we do. How many different manufacturers built all the microphones and cameras that are in the same room as you and also connected to the internet? How many countries had their hands on those devices before they got to you?

The problem is with a big trend in society that we want to be listened to and watched, because it makes life more convenient on a personal level. Even HN users will happily let in multiple surveillance robots into their homes because they are comfortable with the personal decision.

But it's NOT a personal decision. When we have a society that so willingly accepts and even desires to live in a surveillance state, well, that's a problem. This is a direct path to a totalitarian surveillance state that would be much much more invasive than anything written about in 1984. We should be working to avoid that world, not invite it in as fast as we can open the door.
For me the advantage for Echo is not so much in speech recognition, but in hearing all sorts of other cheap household sensors. An Amazon dash button that outputs a high-pitch sound can be manufactured ~10-30 times cheaper than one that needs Bluetooth and WiFi. A cheap Smokealarm can become fully networked, a doorbell heard can activate added features, etc.....
The `Letrec' construct (see: chapter 3) addresses your concerns. It extends the language from a standard S-K-I lambda calculus into a language that "copes" with recursion, especially with TCO.
I did mostly ignore the central thesis of your post, which is why I quoted the specific part I was replying to.

You say they count as extraordinary, but by what measure? Reading the origins of those languages, they don't strike me as such. Unless you consider them extraordinary because they wrote languages and compilers without having advanced formal education, but then your claim seems rather circular.

I can't really respond to your anecdata without starting a flame war, but suffice it to say that perhaps some people would consider PHP or Perl or JavaScript cogent counter-examples to the point you're trying to make.

Well, no, because the point I'm making is that one can be employed to hack on some of the most used languages and compilers without having a PhD, and these examples strengthen it.

Now, it might be that these languages are poorly built and which is why many non-PhDs can get jobs building them, but that is an explanation, not a rebuttal.

And I'd point out that one doesn't have to be blind to fail to see statistics that aren't there. Would you care to provide them?

Directional controls could be added that shift the maze texture around the static geometry. The cursor could stay in a fixed position and leave a trail behind.

I like that this geometry forces a more exploratory strategy because sections of the maze are hidden from view.

We already know how to design a program that won't discourage work. It's called a basic income. Everybody gets it regardless of whether they're unemployed, making minimum wage or Donald Trump. You can't lose the benefit by making more money so there is no even theoretical disincentive to work.

And of course the money comes from taxes which come predominantly from upper income people, so even though the government is writing a check to Donald Trump, it's not half as big as the one he's writing to Uncle Sam, whereas the reverse is true for lower income people.
I'd like to hear from Swift Devs who also need to support Android. What does the landscape for cross development look like today, and what is the prognosis? Is open source Swift going to lead to a truly cross-platform tool set any time soon?
It needs to be authenticated because I don't want to run injected javascript. (I have no idea if the inner frame contains javascript. My browser blocked it for me by default. That is the correct and good behaviour.)

It needs to be encrypted because I don't want other people to know that I'm browsing the ancient map. The map itself is public, the fact that I am reading it need not be public. Why are you afraid that I don't want you to know my reading list? Would you tell me yours?
In this case, probably $80,000.

This is Alcor, the most established and expensive option. Their list prices are $80,000 for neuro (brain only), $200,000 for whole body preservation [1] There are various funding options. [2]

Cryonics Institute, the other US-based organization, charges $28,000 for full body [3] (they don't offer neuro)

Russian KrioRus charges $12,000 for neuro and $36,000 for full body. [4]

NB: if the cost seems high, keep in mind that most of the money is supposed to be held in trust for the cryonics patient so that income from principal can pay for long-term storage. [5] History proved that it's the only way to reliably and sustainably finance cyopreservation, potentially indefinitely.

I am not affiliated with any cryonics organization, just researching my options.

If the interview is irritated they're not doing it right. In my case I'd just ask the interviewee to explain his or her answer, and if it holds up, make sure to write in the report to the hiring committee that nobody else I interviewed came up with this answer before. That's why it's an interview and not a standardized test.

Coming up with an unusual solution should be a win, though it's of course not required.

Also, in some cases I might ask a slightly harder follow-up where the shortcut doesn't work.

Oh I believe it still works. I can feel the psychological effects when someone is persistently trying to sell me. It may manifest as guilt, annoyance, or for the genial ones a desire to help them out.

My favorite failure though was when one sales guy sent me an email asking for another colleague's contact info because maybe I wasn't "in the position to make the decision." Ballsy but boy did that backfire on him.

Just FYI I get a blank black screen in Chrome 45.0.2454.101. Two javascript errors in the console. "Error creating WebGL context THREE.WebGLRenderer @ 3.js:421" and then "Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'getExtension' of null," which is probably just an after effect of the first one.

How so? I don't think so. Perhaps I wasn't clear. If you make a decision about what devices to buy, on a personal level, and you think that decision only affects you (a "personal decision"), that's not correct. Your decision to buy an Echo or use Siri affects me, too, and the rest of the people around you.

Every time someone decides to trade some of their privacy for some convenience, they are taking away other people's privacy too, including those of us who do not share the view that it's worth it for the convenience.

I don't see it as people wanting to be listened to and watched. I see it as people automatically accepting new technology if it provides a novelty and / or a real benefit without considering consequences. It's also a status symbol to have the newest and coolest tech. Smart homes will simply be the new social status indicator. Technology is way too liberal, and it's leading us in a direction that we might not be able to revert back from.
