I don't know. I've put a lot of thought into it, but this is a Herculean task (like David versus Goliath). Hopefully there are better minds out there who can come up with something. Blockchains and distributed platforms like Etherium look really promising. So does OpenBazaar [1]. There was also an article on the topic recently posted to HN [2]. It has a great quote, "Uber’s big bet is global monopoly or bust.".

I never said that I thought we should protect every individual member of the justice system. Quite to the contrary, I think preserving and enhancing the public trust in the justice system requires that individuals who have acted abusively are not protected.

Here's James Gosling's account of radioactive RAM chips used in the UltraSparc II...

http://nighthacks.com/roller/jag/entry/at_the_mercy_of_suppl...

When Sun folks get together and bullshit about their theories of why Sun died, the one that comes up most often is another one of these supplier disasters. Towards the end of the DotCom bubble, we introduced the UltraSPARC-II. Total killer product for large datacenters. We sold lots. But then reports started coming in of odd failures. Systems would crash strangely. We'd get crashes in applications. All applications. Crashes in the kernel. Not very often, but often enough to be problems for customers. Sun customers were used to uptimes of years. The US-II was giving uptimes of weeks. We couldn't even figure out if it was a hardware problem or a software problem - Solaris had to be updated for the new machine, so it could have been a kernel problem. But nothing was reproducible. We'd get core dumps and spend hours pouring over them. Some were just crazy, showing values in registers that were simply impossible given the preceeding instructions. We tried everything. Replacing processor boards. Replacing backplanes. It was deeply random. It's very randomness suggested that maybe it was a physics problem: maybe it was alpha particles or cosmic rays. Maybe it was machines close to nuclear power plants. One site experiencing problems was near Fermilab. We actually mapped out failures geographically to see if they correlated to such particle sources. Nope. In desperation, a bright hardware engineer decided to measure the radioactivity of the systems themselves. Bingo! Particles! But from where? Much detailed scanning and it turned out that the packaging of the cache ram chips we were using was noticeably radioactive. We switched suppliers and the problem totally went away. After two years of tearing out hair out, we had a solution.

But it was too late. We had spent billions of dollars keeping our customers running. Swapping out all of that hardware was cripplingly expensive. But even worse, it severely damaged our customers trust in our products. Our biggest customers had been burned and were reluctant to buy again. It took quite a few years to rebuild that trust. At about the time that it felt like we had rebuilt trust and put the debacle behind us, the Financial Crisis hit...
That's fairly slippery ground. Let's imagine for a moment that youtube would not have any ads at all. That would not make the copyright infringement any less (they'd be running at an even more massive loss but that's besides the point).

But if they sold the content then it would be direct profiting from piracy and that's a pretty simple affair when it comes to the legal side of things as it allows a much more direct assessment of the damages. No longer can the defendant claim that 'those copies would not have been sold to the viewers' because those copies are sold to the viewers, so the other party has you over a barrel when it comes to proving 'lost income due to reduced sales'.

But whether or not they profited directly from the content or not is actually immaterial to whether or not copyright infringement occurred. It did and charging for access would not make a difference there, income from advertising is just as clearly profiting.

I suspect that if they had charged for the content that youtube would never have gotten as big as it did so clearly the fact that they infringed left, right and center on copyrights and did not charge for the access to that content (and still do...) was what made them successful.

So I'd say yes, it was substantially different, but not in a legal sense.

I don't think youtube would have been alive for both legal reasons (they'd have been hit much harder and earlier) and for reasons related to not being able to achieve the scale they did if they had charged for the content.
Yes, this seems to be the right behavior for case-insensitive things like DNS names as well. If a user inputs one, preserve the case when you store it, but do case-insensitive comparisons.
No, go ahead and regulate it. Consumers should have the right to fitness for purpose and reasonable and foreseeable care.

In this case, I would suggest that a manufacturer of a device with internet connectivity must prominently disclose an expected lifetime at the point of sale;
and support the device for that lifetime,
and notify all registered customers when a flaw is found, again when it is fixed, and finally when the device lifetime is ending.

Your car shouldn't have internet access in the first place; it should have an access port that can talk to an internet connectivity device. Gigabit ethernet with PoE is a pretty good choice there, by the way. You'd think that people would demand clear interfaces for things like that, after going through the generations of aftermarket radios, cassette tape players, CD players, MP3-CD players, DVD players... and now we expect an AUX-in and, maybe, a Bluetooth receiver. Standardized interfaces are great.

Ask HN: Why 80 characters for titles?
Title editorialism is considered a faux-paux on HN, however, articles optimize their titles to fit in 140 characters due to Twitter and other similar platforms.

However, there are many titles that I feel I have made worse by shortening them to fit on HN (both having made it to the front page, and also not having made it).

Is there any real reason why HN doesn't switch to 140 as well?

Also, I feel shorter headlines leads towards more clickbait-like submissions making it to the front page.
Well, I didn't say that. Additionally, I don't consider error correction to be analogous to SSL.

Samsung recently announced a 2nd Gen TSV ( 3D ) DDR4 Memory, it will be only 2 years before we see 256GB Memory per DIMM or more. We could easily have 1TB per DIMM by 2020, meaning a single 1U server would have 4TB Memory ( Assuming Intel decide to support that much memory...... )

We have in less then a decade, all of a sudden remove most of our I/O bottleneck. From NAND SSD, to Intel Xpoint, and Giant amount of memory all within 10 years.
The claim that it inherently voids the warranty is probably not true (yes, even 2nd level tech support is manned by people with no specific knowledge about warranties,) but if it is a policy then it most probably violates federal law and should be reported to the FTC if this response was received by any US customers.

Interesting. I had not heard that story before, although I believe one or two of my old friends were working at Sun on Sparc development at the time. The curious thing about this story is that when I worked in the memory business for a while in the late '80s I was told that the major source of alpha particles that could cause soft errors was the device packaging material. As it was explained to me, earlier in DRAM history they were usually packaged in ceramic packages (also military applications always used ceramic). Later no plastic packaging materials were used because they were less expensive (and presumably the associated reliability issues had been resolved sufficiently to allow the use of plastic in more applications). Anyway, the plastic didn't emit alpha radiation like the ceramic did. When it was explained to me I got the impression everyone in the business knew this.

I'm not a power user, but use Org every day. My init.el even drops me into my org todo list. Top uses:

Engineering notebook. Key combo calls org-journal-entry which I found on the web. It brings up a time-stamped narrowed buffer. I use this in every meeting where note-taking occurs. TODOs can be recorded directly in the journal and can be merged with other TODOs in agenda mode.

Linking. C-c C-l creates a nice looking hyperlink. I link to URLs, local files of all kinds (office, pdf, jpg, etc), or org tags. E.g. I keep a list of restaurants I want to try. I tag by cuisine type, and link to the restaurant's web page. Cycling to DONE time-stamps the entry so I know when I visited. I keep track of books-to-read in a similar way.

Other TODOs. I set the mode cycling to TODO -> IN PROGRESS -> WAITING -> DEFERRED -> CANCELLED -> DONE so I can handle a wide varieties of task outcomes. Also timestamped.

Spreadsheets. Mostly when I have a bunch of data already in a buffer and want to do some quick calculations. Quicker than firing up a real spreadsheet, though it's pretty limited.

HTML generation. Making pretty outlines/notes from my org files.

Gnu-pg. Seamless encrypt/decrypt of sensitive data.

Stuff I tried but mostly stopped using:

Org-babel. It was neat to run Clojure, Python, Ruby, and shell all from one file, pipe data between them, and make pretty tex output from it all. But day to day I rarely need that sort of power.

Calendar. I tried keeping all my recurring and one-time appointments in org. Problem is, I'm forced by work to live in Outlook, so keeping 2 calendars is not worth it.

Agenda. I used to view my agenda to merge everything in todos and calendar. I tend not to use agenda much any more.

TBH, I don't really have the discipline to rigorously update my TODOs all the time. Even so, I'd feel a little lost with out org. As with any todo system it declutters your head. When I realize there's something I should do, I need to get it out of my head into org, else I feel anxious that I'll forget it. Hardly matters that I only wind up doing 1/3 of them. I also rely on it for backup and sync of important notes, todos, etc. (via dropbox).

You'll get out of it what you put into it, but even with a few core uses (for me, notes, todos, and linking) it can quickly become indispensable.
As someone who has been doing screencasts with voice, I can tell you the mic is really important. If you use a headset, even a good one, you can generally hear the spit swishing around in your mouth. It's awful.

A buddy runs a pro recording studio and recommended Aphex Microphone X. I haven't looked back. Aphex makes amazing pro microphone preamps that are pricey. They launched something called Microphone X which has a compressor and a "big bottom" feature that were previously only in their high end pro gear. It's quite affordable - about $200 compared to an EV RE20 broadcaster mic for $600. It's a USB mic, so you don't need a preamp or digi interface. You just plug it into your computer and you're all set. I use it with a boom stand and pop filter. I love them so much I use them for everything including skype calls.

What this does is negate the changes in volume as you get closer or further from the mic (compressor). Add some nice radio bass to your voice with the big bottom effect. And generally give you a pro quality mic with a USB interface.

Here are all three:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00B73OJT2?psc=1&redirect=t...

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00DY1F2CS?psc=1&redirect=t...

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008AOH1O6?psc=1&redirect=t...

Sure, purists will argue the EV20 is worth every penny. But pre's like the aphex have gotten so good that they've made the gains from a high-end source mic worth a lot less, if anything.

Currencies have their value nominally defined by a sovereign power. Some currencies in the past used precious metals in coinage, but that didn't determine it's value. Value of currency can be changed according to policy. As such gold has never been a currency, but has been a commodity used in some coinage. The discussion is "nominalism" versus "metalism". Nominalism wins by a country mile! Gold backed currencys, similarly to currencys who tie their value to a different currency (such as pegging exchange rates) only serve to reduce the capacity of the issuing body to pursue domestic policy in the interests of the populous. In that sense, a commodity can be a store of value that's not a currency, and can be used as material to represent currency, but cannot be a currency.

Your nginx will get even faster! SYN packets (packets with the SYN flag set) are the first packet sent to initiate a TCP connection. A browser connecting to a web server is a TCP connection. So this will enable the linux kernel to handle incoming connection requests way faster. The effect is that high traffic web servers running with already-optimized applications like nginx will become faster under high load, particularly a flood of incoming new connection requests.

If you are trying to weather a TCP based DDoS attack, you have a better chance at your server staying up, provided your connection isn't saturated.

If you're running a load balancer, reverse proxy, port forwarding, or anything else that will receive significant traffic and requires a TCP connection to your server, your server will be faster.

This also affects anything that listens on a TCP socket, like postfix (email), SSH, FTP, memcached, redis, mysql etc..etc..

It isn't a 4k issue as much as neither GTK3 nor QT5 wants to really make any effort to force adoption of DPI-aware code, unlike what, say, Android and iOS and Windows 10 has done, which is to force apps to have layouts specific for certain device sizes and also be HiDPI aware, with OSX not doing specific layouts but still requiring HiDPI awareness.

CrossFit works for me.

The reason CrossFit is better - for me - than the ordinary gym, is because in the past I would join a gym and not know what to do, and not know how to use the equipment, and not have a specific time to be there, and not have anyone to ask what to do, and feel silly, and stop going (but keep paying).

CrossFit is like group personal training, not a cult.

The trainer is very good and there is a big focus on safety and avoiding injury. The trainers are always available to help and guide you on how to exercise properly and safely. In fact I think it's much safer than going to an ordinary gym where you are left to work it out yourself and you'll probably do it wrong, endangering your health.

I don't love exercising - I value it but nothing more than that. So at CrossFit I don't need to think about it. I go along and get told what to do and it's a balanced exercise program. I just try not to go too hard - I'm in it for the long haul.

It's friendly but it's not a church or a love-in.

I did get a shoulder injury (currently recovering from it) but it's because of my years of sedentary living my muscles are weak and things like shoulder muscles aren't held together well by atrophied muscle. That's not the fault of CrossFit.

Does this happen much in sport? I see it a lot in music, acting and business, because nepotism is so easily perpetrated there, just as in politics. Sports I can't think of any familial dynasties. Might just be because I don't really like sports but when have there been 2 players who were the pinnacle of their sport? In fact, even in music we see manufactured dynasties but rarely organic dynasties (eg. Julian Lennon was nowhere near as popular as John Lennon but he nonetheless got a hit record). It all just suggests that these are orchestrated, oligarchical results, rather than the result of healthy democracy.
