> Really? Citation please; I simply don't believe this. Most Christian universities that I have any knowledge of invite (or at least aren't averse to it) tough discussion, and allow for a pretty wide range of critical thought about interpretations of the Bible, how Christianity should relate to politics, culture, science, and many other subjects.

You have missed out on the wave of evangelical schools that market to parents as babysitters. Here are some quotes from the OKWU student handbook:

http://www.okwu.edu/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/2013-2014-Stu...

> Students should understand that all traffic on the Internet on campus is capable of being viewed, monitored, and logged by OKWU

View porn and you can be expelled. Might not want to search for birth control either.

> Possession or use of alcohol on or off campus, contributing to the use of alcohol by other OKWU students, and/or being present in an environment where alcohol is being consumed is prohibited. Use, possession, purchasing, etc. of tobacco is prohibited.

Note the on or OFF campus bit. This is where the evangelical babysitting really kicks in.

> By virtue of their voluntary enrollment, all students, regardless of age, residency, or status agree to engage in sexual behavior exclusively within the context of marital heterosexual monogamy.

> Gambling, pornography, immodesty, profanity, crude, vulgar, or offensive language, and disrespectful behavior, such as gossip, dishonesty, and malice are also viewed as inappropriate behavior for all students. The University supports the stance of The Wesleyan Church on the issue of dancing.
No one should ever be fired for saying anything?

Or just "bigotry is OK, leave this bigot alone" is something someone should not be fired for?
I think to some extent it depends on what you see apps as on a device like the AppleTV. To me the big potential draw of app on a TV is access to other content streams that Apple hasn't negotiated contracts with. So while on my old AppleTV I can watch iTunes content, Netflix and HBO, a smaller content provider can build and submit an app. I can also get apps to stream local content. For this kind of use using a MacBook or iPad is not a very good substitute. On the other hand, if you are looking at filling the position of a Wii or XBox, and you game solo, than the laptop or iPad might have material advantages over a TV app, especially if you always play solo.
If the notice went to the site hosting the content, then if the site actually acts on the DMCA-or-equivalent notice, they will have removed the content.

If the notice went to a search engine linking to the content, then yes, the notice provides a convenient index of those links. One more reason making it ridiculous to send notices to search engines rather than the actual content hosts.

Gametime United | San Francisco | Full-Time | On-Site

Searching for high-performing Android, DevOps, and Ruby Engineers. --> https://jobs.lever.co/gametime

Gametime connects communities through frictionless and beautiful mobile applications. We believe communities get closer when people get off the couch and have fun at a live event. Backed by Accel Partners as well as team owners Jeff Mallett (Giants / Whitecaps / Derby FC), Vivek Ranadive (Kings), and David Blitzer (76ers / Devils) we've raised $13mm (including $8mm in May of 2015).

Built for iOS and Android, Gametime makes getting into the game as amazing as being there. Inside gametime.co/app we provide high-res panoramic photos from every section, curated listings as we decrease a universe of 5000 options to the 50 best with ultra fast two-tap checkout and no printing. With our mobile-only approach, we've reduced a 30-minute process to 30 seconds. This approach has led to fast (600% annual) and viral (92% of new purchasers hear about the app from friends) growth.

New Gametimers join for the community of high-performers (known as the Gameteam). New employees also love the environment as we aspire to build the best place to work in SF...

We offer market rate salary (even though we’re small) and real equity (meaning you come out way ahead). Everyone here does meaningful work. You won't end up on the "login button team" here, you will be a big part of the most important conversations on the engineering team. There’s free catered lunch Monday through Friday! Who said there was no such thing? We offer Blue Cross / Blue Shield via Zenefits and dental insurance. We also have monthly $75 cell phone reimbursement and $80 commuter benefit. We love going to games and we're right by AT&T Park so (if you're into it) you'll hit a bunch of them with us. Go Giants!

In summary, we're fast, well-funded and growing quickly. It's an exciting time to join the Gameteam.
I had an Eee 1000H for years - it was great! But the SSD eventually wore out, and by that point they were no longer selling netbooks.
I use and generally like Steam, but I'd never call its discovery "good". Users are drowning in the number of titles, the recommendation engine is pretty poor, and there's no support for filtering.

I'll never buy an RTS or a multiplayer-only game, stop showing them to me. I'll never buy an early-access game or a game with 3rd-party DRM, stop showing them to me. I could cull 90% of the stuff in my discovery queues, automatically, with 30 seconds of box-checking.

I'm also surprised that the desktop client has never implemented an "is this machine actually capable of running this game?" check. Non-trivial to implement, sure, but really useful.
The recent outcry against "safe spaces" has been against those established in public spaces and enforced with calls for violence. That's far from a case of free association.
This seems like a poor approach if you are really serious about the security of your data. Proper pen testing encompasses more than a single app you may be developing.

1) A developer can only help secure your code base, not your entire infrastructure and company-wide security practices.

2) A single security-minded developer does not suddenly make the rest of your developers more security-minded (not to mention your non-developers).

3) Even the most security-minded developers may lack knowledge of specific security threats. They are primarily focused on development, not keeping up on every new vulnerability or attack technique.

I agree that cost may be an issue, but pretending that security needs can be solved by finding the right developers is pretty short-sighted.
I was following your argument until this part: "All the anti-safe-space discussion on Hacker News lately is truly, horribly, fucking disgustingly indicative of the inherent sexism and flat-out hatred that worms its way through developer culture." I don't see how you made this connection. The way it's worded seems to imply that holding opinions that safe space have issues in practice would lead to being sexist and have hatred (which I presume you meant against oppressed groups generally for which safe spaces are added). I disagree strongly with this.
Wow it has been there since the end of June.
I use Thunderbird's calendar and think that this is good news. Thunderbird has been in a sad state for long time. It is slow, buggy, and behaves unpredictably. I hope this will create the necessary momentum for a new project or at least a new approach to developing Thunderbird further.
Maybe, but you have to consider that meeting the conditions to enter this market could seriously damage your value proposition in every other market you serve—or want to serve.

That's the opposite of a "decent" market.
This is pretty cool because back in the dot com days I got paid huge amounts of money to do what they did in the first 60 seconds. I started at $1000/day and the phone rang off the hook. Talked to a friend and he said "double your rates" and I said "WTF? I'm not worth $2000/day, that's crazy". He said "double your rates". So I did, phone still rang like crazy. I got up to $4000/day and had 5 days/week work. Went to $8000/day and got about 3-4 more days and then it dried up.

And that is how I made payroll for BitKeeper in the early days.

I think it's cool that this stuff is far more common knowledge these days. All I was doing was figuring out if it was CPU, network, disks, file system, vm system, memory. 99% of the time I knew what the problem was in a few minutes, all the real effort was tracking down what program (or programs) were causing it. Funny enough, most people didn't care what cause was, they just wanted to know what to buy to make it not an issue. Crazy amounts of money being thrown at Sun equipment.
Very true, we just launched an open source mobile app to help users manage digital and physical security (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.secfirst.u...) and from the little that we know (Google Play Store unfortunately keeps data on countries of download) India seems to be one of the places where we are seeing most new users. I guess it makes sense with the nature of the current government and also the crack down on media and NGOs.
Talent Is What Annoys You
At the core of XML you can still see the SGML origins. It is great stuff if you have an actual document to work on - like, documentation, or an essay, or a manual... there are some very comprehensive schemas and renderers around for those use cases, that can do heavy lifting where Markdown or Word start failing you, and TeX is inappropriate.

What polluted XML the most was simply being overhyped, especially as "human-readable". It's not binary, but it's also not a good front end for any human task. Although it's capable of flexible markup, that makes it an inefficient source format. Even in the case where you have a document to write, it can be more palatable to parse something simpler and convert it, and then apply finishing touches to the XML where the precision works in your favor.

That said, most data is not really a document, but a tiny fragment with relations. Documents only make sense once you have some kind of story to tell.
One write is enough to securely erase a hard drive [pdf]
Same here, my parents never told me, it was just a growing suspicion that slowly came together. At the same time, I never recall being angry with them, it was just a fact of life that parents pretend Santa exists.

It is strange that we lie to children, but at the same time, kids have interesting minds, and they seem to really appreciate fantasies, creativity and adventures. This is the one time in their life when they can honestly believe a magic fairy leaves money for their teeth, or that the treasure map they discovered for lost candy in their backyard is real, and left by a pirate 500 years ago. As adults, we lose that magic as we get a better understanding of the world, and we try to relive some of it through movies or games, but for kids, it can exist in reality.

So, yes, we lie to them, but in return they live years in what feels like a more fantastical world, and I think they appreciate those memories when they grow up.
Steam has done well with that model for games, but being Mac only would be a tough sell. Apple's big advantage was instantly getting the App Store on every Mac.

Have you checked out Exchange EWS Provider [1], currently maintained by Ericsson? This has been around for a few years [2], and when the developer could no longer spend time on it, Ericsson took it over. The extension is not perfect, but you can get some stuff done.

Another alternative is the DavMail gateway [3], which runs as a separate (Java) program that sits between your Exchange server and Thunderbird. [I haven't used this one for years ever since the Exchange EWS provider became available]

No, but I think the suggestion of the post you replied to is that one fanciful being that people convinced you existed, might encourage you to think critically about other beings instead of simply accepting their existence because people tell you they are there.
Your reasoning is sound but the economies of scale that apply to the open source world of software do not apply in the same way to the open source world of hardware. Capital investments on the order of 100's of millions or even billions are fairly normal in that world.

What we personally would love to see or not does not really matter if the economical underpinnings aren't there.
Nobody wants to study why because they'd be labeled as racists and lose their job the moment any group of crybullies discovered what they were researching. So it goes largely untouched, which only does the actual racists more benefit because they can use and represent the data to fit their narrative because there is no other narrative because nobody wants to touch the data.

It's a self-feeding loop.
It's case sensitive. Try "WhatsApp"
Perhaps, but you omit the quote immediately following -- which is worthy of debate / consideration:

“Funders looking to influence organizations
who promote a consensus view are very different
from funders looking to influence organizations
who have the goal of creating polarization and
controversy and delaying policy progress on a
scientific issue that has nearly uniform consensus,”

One thing that I've noticed and that kind of concerns me is that in my environment (urban, well-educated, white, late-twenties, Western-Europe) there's a distinct lack of regular interaction with people who are significantly older, younger, less-educated, and/or 'less' white.

Perhaps the reason why I notice is it that in my previous Evangelical Christian life I interacted with a much greater variety of people through regular church-related activities (every Sunday and Thursday, and special events on top of that).

From mentally disabled (apologies if that's not the PC term) to genius-level mathematicians, from as-local-as-<insert typical local food> to a huge amount of different ethnic backgrounds, from watching babies in the Sunday kindergarten to volunteering for 'coffee duty' at events for seniors, and from dirt-poor to local jeweler/banker/realtor; all of that came together on, at the very least, a weekly basis. And it's one of the few things I really miss from my church-going years. Literally every single one of those people in some way enriched my life.

I think it's a very good thing to try to counterbalance increasingly common lifestyles of 'homogenous interactions' through initiatives like this. I really think it does increase empathy, and I really think it's necessary.

> I would be surprised even in 2030 if India surpasses UK

I would be surprised it if didn't surpass the UK by then. According to IMF[1], the 2015 GDP of UK and India are 2864 and 2182 Billions USD. All India needs to do is grow about 18% faster than the UK. Assuming UK grows at 3.0% that is 4.8% for India. Hard to see how in the next decade or so of low commodity prices, booming working population, low debt overhang, china slowdown etc., India does worse than that. I would not be surprised if India overtook UK before 2025.

The company, which has 75 employees, is valued at about 100 millions.

For software company in California, this level of valuation aproximately corresponds to "aqui-hire" - when the technology is uninteresting, but people can be used.

For aerospace company like Reaction Engines with track record of their founders and results which are being discussed, with all potential opportunities...

It looks strange.
> They already do. Electron, Web Components, etc...

And nobody can agree on which to use. It's not standard if it's just "some set of components some people reuse". A far cry from standardization.

> Compare the performance of vanilla JS vs. asm.js.

That's not what I'm comparing. I'm comparing the performance of native toolkits vs web toolkits on asm.js. It pales in comparison, and the battery usage is through the roof. ymmv?

> So what are we looking at to replicate that?

1. Standardization of components (developer does not have to build their own scrolling system, context menu, etc)
2. Themability of components at the application level (developer can style components not to clash with the style of the application)
3. Themability of components at the platform level (user can style the application not to clash with the style of their own desktop)
4. Performance needs to shoot way, way up. Apps can't rely on a performant GPU, it's unreasonable to ask that of every device at this point in time. Some day maybe every device will come with their own high performance GPU, but eventualism cannot excuse bad coding practices and unnecessary layering.

The rest should follow. But I still don't see us getting any of those things, any time soon. These are not easy problems to solve.
The inlets are supposed to close before the engine enter pure-rocket mode. So I suppose that's not much more drag, especially since at this point the aircraft is at very high altitude thus with low air pressure.

So the main drawback is not drag but rather weight. Presumably, they've made the necessary calculations and the advantages of breathing air appear to make up for the additional weight.
Honest question. If the concept of dark matter flows from our current understanding of gravity, and gravity is so admittedly poorly understood, how confident are we that dark matter is "a thing"? I know an intuitive sensibility is not the best foundation for an understanding of The Universe, but every time I read about dark matter, I get a very "Aether"-ish vibe. I just imagine comments section in the 2070 version of HN getting a good natured laugh about dark matter.

The appletv has some horrid UX problems. The text input is horrid. Siri works well enough for searching video content (though i wish there was a way to disable itunes; always get my hopes up just to find that it requires an itunes purchase).

App discovery is horrid. It's not easy to find apps, and if you aren't within the first set you'll never find it. There is no way to discover via computer or phone and send to appletv, so it's basically a no go. The only exposed apps are the featured or most popular. After that it's guesswork at best.
This is a country that executes terrorists already in custody in staged police encounters despite having both a military and a civilian special antiterrorist court system. I don't think they're much for due process.
Again, you've turned "someone shouldn't be fired for bigotry" into "bigotry is okay". You've turned "someone shouldn't be fired for saying someone shouldn't be fired for bigotry" into "no one should ever be fired for anything".

You can cover literally the first two things with LuaJIT. Point three covers the fact that it can be used as "a stand-alone low-level language." So really, the only "advantage" this software has is that it is a different language. That's not an advantage on its own.

If you're using Lua to not use Lua, you never wanted to use Lua to begin with!

> You drag those air breathing engines

You always drag engines of the last stage all the way to orbit. More, with a single stage to orbit the last stage is the first stage - and SSTO isn't quite considered an always loosing idea. More - Skylon has advantage of launching only with fuel - and for rockets oxydizer weights several times more than fuel.

Are you sure the drawback you're referring to is actually a drawback in comparison to what the industry have?
