While I'm generally on Signal bandwagon, I don't buy the previously given reasons for using telephone numbers as endpoint identifiers.

What I would like to see is the ability to periodical regenerate endpoint ids like what Burner does for phone numbers. Also, optionally add the ability to traverse Tor like ricochet.im

That would be nice.
Well no, there's way to sync files simply but accessing files is quite simple.

Regardless, even Dropbox uses local network bandwidth when syncing on two computers on the same network.
Extremely interesting. My first thought was to step through the simulation and try to see lightning strike, but I guess it doesn't display.

I think this would be a very interesting use case for Elm with its "time traveling" mechanic.

I'm all for bringing down the government, but I have to believe there's a better way to do that than Donald Trump.
As I understand

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nyquist%E2%80%93Shannon_sampli...

IR has a frequency of between 430THz and 300GHz, so Max bandwidth would be between 215Tsymbols and 150Gsymbols (I used symbols instead of bits because I forgot the right term...)

So there is an information-theory limit, as I understand it. If I was ever wrong, this is the right crowd to find the person who will correct me!
The published results aren't consistent with the general understanding that xz is faster than bzip2 while compressing better even at the lowest settings.

Xz beyond the lowest compression setting quickly enters the realm of diminishing returns, but when even the lowest setting compresses better than bzip2 and is faster in both compression and decompression, there is no reason to use bzip2.

The opencpu post completely ignores the compression setting dimension, presenting an incomplete picture. Xz is shown as consistently the slowest by a wide margin, even relative to bzip2. This is unexpected, xz will be faster in both compression and decompression than bzip2 when using a compression setting appropriate for comparison with bzip2 compression ratios.
Its job is to compress html, so at the very least the html-related dictionary contents make a lot of sense.
Can't even use signal on my phone, due to not having GAPPS installed.

It's too bad, because I would use it otherwise.

Everytime a home group came up in windows I closed the window immediately because I had no idea what it was about. I imagined it was for some kind of file sharing but honestly it only had checkboxes for default windows documents folders. I, and also everyone I know, do not use them for storing my files. Honestly I don't know why tho.

As someone who has owned some of the really good classical reverb units, this article is ... uh ... not sure what the point is. It reads like an advertisement.

Listen, every uniquely engineered reverb has a distinctive sound. Some are more distinctive than others. Most 80s reverbs are terrible except if you are looking for the quirky characteristics that result from their limits. I am one of those people that does not have nostalgia for the limits of those units; their sound is perfectly replicated in modern software units.

The 90s reverb units sounded really good. Lexicon, Roland, Sony, Eventide, TC, etc. But in 2015 the available Logic Audio plugins, while they may be a bit different, are essentially indistinguishable quality-wise from the original hardware units. I owned and loved a lot of those units. So what do I use today for reverb? The native Logic Audio plugins and the ArtsAcoustic plugin. These are so good and flexible that they cover almost every use case for the sophisticated hardware units of the past. They sound really good. It is almost embarrassing that you can get audio that sounds that good for that cheap.

A reverb plugin on your laptop today is capable of a great many things that were not even possible for reverb hardware in the 1980s. That is worth keeping in mind.

Next Steps in Career, Advice Please – Meta? Practical? Personal?
I am a data scientist and business intelligence developer. Any feedback on staying or going would be great! Also I am now thinking about leveling up my tech skills or trying out management.

About me
- I have quant undergrad degree and unrelated advanced degree; and getting technical training online through certificates
- I worked in nonprofit for a bunch of years, loved it, but poor
- Haven’t stayed at tech related company more than 1.5 years

Current role
- Started analytics stack and first data warehouse. There are benefits to build a more complete solution
- The rhetoric internally and externally on data/analytics gives optimism to my role
- Started role with unrealistic expectations from management; Unable to get traction to provide additional developers for data projects
- Employees are not as tech or data savvy, as lead to believe, so reporting and bottle neck hell
- Brought on with expectations for salary increase at 6 months, which did not happen, despite excellent feedback. Promised a promotion and salary in next review
- Still things I can learn from the biz and how a company adopts to change/growth
- Company unable to work with my skills --- moved around the company and now in tech product. I have been assured that my role won't change...but I already started doing product manager tasks
- Hours and demands are pretty chill and predictable, which means I have more time to work on side projects and take classes
- People like and trust me here

New opportunities
- Start-ups have more funding than all total investments of my current company
- New companies with less of a track record than current one
- Smaller team
- Bikeable from my house
- I will work longer hours
- More challenges (good and bad) and level-up opportunities
- Work at a technology based company
- Meet interesting and like-minded people
- Issues trying to be tackled by new start-ups align with my values more directly
To all the "lab tech never actually arrives" skeptics, it's worth noting that 12 years ago this was a thing:

In my opinion, expect to see VR as the first consumer device to pick this up - it's too bandwidth limited for today's wireless and sorely wants not to be.

People appear, and have ideas. Ideas need customers (or money) to become startups. Startups need customers (or MORE money) to become businesses. Too much money creates rocketships - which need even more consumers to land.

Real businesses create angels, and subsequently investors.

Feel free to tinker with the weightings, depending on how many successes you'd like to have!
Yay, so catapults and ships don't get stuck on each other anymore? Yay, I might have to get back into it (except I have a 'real job' and side projects etc now...).

You still fail to say where you disagree with what the article says as opposed to disagreeing with what you think the article says. It's not a matter of knowing the subject matter but of text comprehension. Sorry, I missed the "maybe" on security, but he explains that "a handful of projects with very high real world impact get a lot of mileage out of security research". With all due respect to Cap'n Proto and Sandstorm.io, neither have "very high real world impact". If you think capabilities are widely used in production, in multiple domains, and have had a significant and conclusive contribution to the industry, then you'd be in disagreement with the author, and I'm sure he'd gladly change his description in light of the new information. Like I said, it's an inventory, not a critique.
At this point the 68010 had been available for a long time and the 68020 was just released. These still had no MMU but had much better bus error handling than the 68000. In retrospect, it was probably trivial to do 68000/68010 versions of the same CPU by just changing the microcode.
If by some nearly inconceivable series of events one found oneself in a situation where one thought it would be socially beneficial to say they gave $5 to CaH for nothing, one could just say that regardless of whether it's true.

When did you move into management? I am coming out of my early 30s and did a lot of things - started as a database programmer then law school + legal aid lawyer/policy maker. Moved back to tech 3 years ago as a data scientist. Doing well and loving it. I get a lot of opportunities and thinking now on whether I should continue honing my hard tech skills (esp when I don't have kids yet or a mortgage) or consider moving to management. Thoughts from a veteran!? Thanks so much.
If they're charging $$ to watch the videos, they can pay someone to review content... in this case, Udemy could very well be liable for penalties beyond DMCA safe harbor.
Yes I am. There is no such thing as functional movements. Whatever you do is functional to whatever you are doing. They do lighter squats and heavier squats for reps.

Look at any crossfit facebook page. For example:

https://www.facebook.com/CrossFit.Coorparoo/?fref=ts

You will see people who have:

massive arms that are completely out of proportion with their shoulders. Most people are not designed to have arms that big, which is why they don't match their shoulders.

Take these guys for example:

Then there are the girls with massive legs:

https://www.facebook.com/CrossFit.Coorparoo/photos/a.1627123...

and the guys with muscles that look like fat worms have invaded their body:

They are a joke and the media is trying to make people think those types of things are attractive but the general population do not find them attractive at all.
Cards Against Humanity is always doing something crazy. When they sponsor the Accidental Tech Podcast and instead of a sponsor read, they have John Siracusa review toaster ovens.
That trade-off changes the way the muscles develop. Going to the gym isn't just a magic shortcut.

They also aren't making close to $20/view on a video, which is enough for even one viewer to pay for having that video reviewed by hand for infringement. Moreover, youtube has setup many systems in place to detect infringing materials. With the charges that Udemy has per copy, they should be paying people to review every video.. or have a $50 upload fee that covers that manual review process. That would kill a lot of the problem.
Who said there were no refunds?
I understand your worries about mob justice, but I think they are misplaced.

Ordinarily, mens rea is necessary for any kind of criminal liability. Mens rea comes in a bunch of different flavors, and different crimes are committed depending on the flavor. For example, if you kill someone, it is murder if you purposefully killed them, but could be manslaughter if you were merely reckless.

So, you can prosecute a prosecutor who knowingly withholds forensic evidence, and the prosecutor next door who is reckless and throws evidence out will just lose his job. You even have to establish beyond a reasonable doubt that the prosecutor was knowingly withholding forensic evidence. That is how criminal law ordinarily works.
You don't need to care, but if you're going to suggest that a country (or state or city or whatever) doesn't need a justice department, you'd do well to show us a country/state/city without one, and how well they're doing.

One of the issues I've found with the TAPL examples and Grow-Your-Own-Type-System implementations is the lack of explicit, top-level type definitions.

That said, they are still very useful, and I'm thankful that the author published them!

There's a lot of room between a 14 year copyright with optional extension, and a requirement to register to what we have today (life + 70 years) with automatic copyright on creation. That only benefits distributers, not society at large.

I'm much more inclined to support something closer to original copyright. As to Trademark protections, some have gone too far (IOC for example). And patent protection on anything software driven is pretty stupid, as well as extension patents on medication, but I can see a place for patent law, in some places.

THAT will be problematic and serve as testing grounds for the gradual adoption of genetic modification, among the majority of humanity. Why cure Wilson's disease when you can genetically screen it out?

> - Can you even Chromecast content that isn't from the internet? I have one and use it with Netflix all the time, but that's news to me.

You can Chromecast local content over LAN via Videostream[0] for Google Chromecast. You can even control the Videostream host via mobile app[1].

It's the next best thing to using Kodi[2] (formerly XBMC) over HDMI with a wireless controller.

> Typical living-room fare is only getting into XBMC or onto a hard drive/NAS if it's been BitTorrented.

On a weak ISP, breaking synchronicity lets you stream content around the house at higher quality. E.g., your ISP only supports ~720p streaming speeds, so you download 1080p+ content overnight / while at work, then stream around the house later.

Thanks for the thoughts. As with many others I'll offer to you that my entire post is not about piracy. I've lived with piracy of my stuff for the last 7 years. Part of doing business.

The point of my post was a business profiting from pirates. The people who make the choice to forego bittorrent and just post the pirated stuff for a profit. THAT... is my point.

0 A.D. is great. I used to play a lot of RTS (real time strategy) games between 1995 and 2005. Sadly the whole RTS genre died because of the shift of PC game developers to consoles and their casual softened gameplay (HaloWars, C&C4) didn't work out. And the free-to-play AoEOnline / C&C Generals 2 (beta) were failures and SC2 drifted into a hardcore online niche. Not everyone wants to play repetitive Moba/tower defence style games. There would be a huge market for RTS games.

I loved the Age of Empires series, as well Empire Earth, C&C Generals. And building games like The Settlers, Anno 1602, Sim City.

0 A.D. is similar to Age of Empire/Mythology. Keep up the good work!

Perhaps they need to start periodically saying things like "just a reminder, this video is from <University of XYZ> and is copyright by us" and periodically scribble that on a whiteboard too. It may make the class sound a bit silly at times but we live in a world where plenty of people are just fine with making blatant copies of things.

I am against DRM. I don't think it helps anyone to hide content behind buggy technologies, especially when they cause problems that have nothing to do with protection such as security holes. I think you just have to modify the content itself; make it "hard" to cleanse every last mention of the true copyright owner, and stop worrying if some loser actually wants to spend the time and effort it would take to strip all of those mentions out.

>You can Chromecast local content via Videostream[0] for Google Chromecast. You can even control the Videostream host via mobile app[1].

The issue with Chromecast is you still need an internet connection to get the app onto the Chromecast to stream the video to it... I was using this and it was awesome! Then things happened and I was stuck on a shaped 256kbps connection and Videostream stopped working reliably. Switched to Kodi on the Remix Mini, works well, though not as good as Videostream did...

The problem is, there is also additional hidden costs to using ECC, mostly due to what is available in the ecosystem. Namely - I want ECC. Great, then I need to get to an X99 board with xeon chips running at higher TDPs. Depending on the case I use, then I would need to upgrade PSU and fans/coolers.

Or, (especially in the mini-ITX world), I can choose one of the server boards or "workstation" C236 boards. Then I would lose official desktop windows support, or lose a m.2 SSD slot, or onboard sound, or other "desktop workstation" features.

It is still not easy to do ECC in this day and age...
I find that physical books work way better for me.. I have a mostly photographic memory and the feel of book, and position of the content adds additional context I just don't have reading an e-format for too much at once. It all tends to just blur together pretty quickly.
