There are a few inaccuracies here about the Google SOA, eg. there are language restrictions at Google and they meant to say GFS instead of Colossus in several places (Colossus has a different architecture that isn't exactly what I'd call "cleanly layered".)

Their overall point about the system having evolved organically rather than being designed by a single architect stands, though.

FreeCol is a relatively old project (I think I recall giving it a spin way back in 2006 or 2007), dating back to when SourceForge was not-evil and that's where everybody was.

At the time, I'm not sure there really were better options than Java for a cross-platform open-source game like this. Maybe Python with PyGame.

Which is one of the reasons BlackBerry would rather leave the country than piss off its customers by telling them they can't use their own keys anymore.

They're more than happy to give up the one and only consumer BBM key, as they've already done for India and Saudi Arabia, and possibly other countries as well that we don't know about.

As the company's COO said a couple of weeks ago, BlackBerry supports "lawful intercept" for their products and services:

http://fedscoop.com/blackberry-taking-balanced-approach-to-e...

And by the way, the article is inaccurate/outdated. BlackBerry already said it will delay the exit (probably indefinitely) as the Pakistan government has already extended its BES shutdown by another month, and probably also indefinitely, as I don't think it wanted BlackBerry to actually leave the country, but it hoped it could scare it into giving it access.

This also tells us companies (including BlackBerry in other countries) shouldn't be so quick to "pee in their pants" (as another famous executive quote once said, even though I know he meant something different) as soon as governments start threatening them with a shutdown unless they provide backdoors or stop using strong encryption. Instead, they should do the right thing and always fight for their customers (including regular consumers, not just enterprise customers), even if that means using the final option of leaving the country (but it often won't be the case).
It's outside your expectations of how people behave, therefore it didn't happen? I find that rather presumptuous...

>There were other systemic problems in BJU’s counseling program. The same staff in charge of counseling were also often involved in BJU’s disciplinary infrastructure—in a school where students could get in significant trouble for an astonishing array of infractions, from not keeping their rooms clean enough to going off campus without permission. Students routinely were expelled without notice.

>In an uneasy mix of roles, Jim Berg served as both the head counselor and head disciplinarian. But the problem was broader than his particular purview, as victims described an environment where they were afraid to come forward to get help after being raped, because they feared being punished for breaking another rule during their attack. One student who was struggling with the revelation of her childhood abuse told GRACE she was placed on disciplinary counseling after she was caught smoking cigarettes, and Chancellor Bob Jones III attempted to impose an even harsher sentence of restricting her to campus for a semester.

>Particularly harrowing was the experience of a student who alleged that her pastor had been raping her since she was 15, and who came to BJU officials when she became pregnant as a result of ongoing coercive sex with the pastor. But because she had lied about going off campus to meet him, BJU kicked her out of school.

>BJU officials defended its comingling of counseling and discipline as something that made sense within the school’s enduring adherence to the practice of in loco parentis— the quasi-parental role that most colleges abandoned fifty years ago—but students described its effect as both chilling and retaliatory.
Let's be clear. You're saying it's okay to fire people for saying "it's not okay to fire people for bigotry". Yes? If you're not okay with that, if you think Josh Olin should not have been fired, please say so.

I can see your argument, here. I disagree with you, but that's not what I want to get at here.

What I want to get at is this: it's one thing to be scared of making racist jokes. It's another thing to be scared of expressing opinions like "Donald Sterling should not have been fired".

When people say "I'm scared to express opinions", and then you attack them "ha ha, look at the white people complaining that they're afraid to make racist jokes, how sad for them" - and then you also say that it's okay to fire people for the opinions that they say they're scared to express...

I don't have a polite term for this.
I agree with about everything you said. The System/38 design was one of the best cathedrals of old. Very forward-looking, thorough, consistent, and great for admins of the time. Still the only capability system bringing in revenue. Adapted pretty well to modern stuff but main OS's issues & stagnation hurt it as you said. I think the fact that it's pricey and proprietary kept the OSS innovation out, too.

However, the change to the AS/400 and POWER cost it one of its greatest features: hardware-enforced integrity at the object level. That's the feature that would still be giving hackers hell if it was widely deployed. The Intel i432 APX and i960MX had similar property. Interesting enough, IBM actually has secure CPU's they've prototyped and even sold to select customers. Would be great if they integrated one with IBM i at microcode, compiler, and OS levels. That plus an optional interface for new customers without legacy crap would be a huge differentiator that might give it new life.
Uhh... Just because you're not aware of celebrity fashion brands doesn't mean they don't exist:

Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen - The Row

Jessica Simpson - eponymous

Gwen Stefani - LAMB

Jay Z - Rocawear

Beyonce - House of Dereon

P Diddy - Sean John

Kanye West

And these are just a FEW.

Celebrities selling clothes is pretty lucrative.

Trigger warnings are important, in the context of a safe place.

I'm coming from the direction of a) being genderqueer and b) having survived sexual assault. Safe places have been remarkable in giving me a place to discuss my feelings about gender without ridicule or hate. Trigger warnings have been pivotal in me recovering from being molested as a pre-teen.

I'm actively scared of coming out in the developer community, because of its deep rooted misogyny. But here I am :)

(edit: I love that I just got down-voted for coming out to the community as both queer and victim of sexual assault! Thanks for proving me right, HN.)
Because limitations imposed by iOS are not limiting me from things that I want to do and benefits outweighs negatives.

Correct, different developer, same publisher.
In Mexico the ones that bring the gifts are the three wise man. I would be told that certain three stars in a row were actually them in their journey to get to earth. It was magical. One night before gift day I always tried to stay awake at night trying to take a peak at them and their camels. But every time I would fall asleep and would wake up to see gifts already there. Eventually I realized it was all not true (first step towards rationality). I was not heart broken, it was gradual really. And I'm left with very fond memories of that time.

You only get to experience that magic once. I'm glad I did.
I'm not interested, sorry.

How is this company getting in the news so much lately? They have nothing to show besides poorly rendered CGI films.

I'm pretty sure that's that case regardless of which school you go to, even if you send them to a catholic school that will happen since many people send their kids to specific private schools for educational or traditional/dynastical rather than for religious or theological reasons.

Not to mention that kids have access to the Internet these days, It will surprise me if there are many kids over the age of 4-5 that actually still believe in Santa unless they really have convinced themselves to do so.
This one tells you how to dress (modestly), and not to dance, and not to go to the cinema, and not to smoke tobacco, and not to drink alcohol (even if you're off campus).

A christian extremist complains about a student who had complained about a sermon, and says that viewpoints need to be challenged. It's useful to see if that extremist is a massive hypocrite or not. In this case it seems he is.
Because that implies you could have the display and display-contents properties have values at the same time that can conflict with each other.

The thing is, display: flex does control some aspects of the element it is applied to. Because there is display: inline-flex. It is roughly the equivalent of block and inline-block. It's just an added bonus that display: flex also affects the immediate children, making them flex items to be manipulated. For instance, make a div display: table and imagine its immediate children are automatically display: table-row, or something of that nature.

Collective Health, ( http://collectivehealth.com/ ), San Mateo, CA (Full time, ONSITE only, VISA-depends, see below)

We're replacing health insurance with a system that members love. Using our SW, platform and services, an employer can pay doctors directly, saving a ton of money and making the employee experience amazing (with the testimonials to back it up).

The company is well-funded, ~two years old and growing very rapidly with massive sales traction (200x this year). We punch well above our weight-class with experienced founders, ~130 team members (~ one quarter is engineering), and paying customers.

Our tech stack is a mix of Go and Java components with Angular on the front end. We use a custom service bus to tie our SOA together, microservices style. We love Docker, CoreOS, postgres, automated testing, and continuos integration.

As a company, we're strong believers in transparency, trust and balance. As an engineering team, we believe good code is easy to read and should have a short "time to understanding". We expect all of our engineers to continually teach as well as learn. We also believe that everyone should write good code, yet balance that against the need to ship.

We've got a ton of interesting problems to solve around distributed systems, data analytics and predictions, complex data modeling, ultra high-availability, security, privacy and more. We're currently looking for experienced SW engineers up and down the stack, back end, infrastructure, data, dev ops, test, generalist, etc. Our biggest short term needs are AngularJS FE, SW Engineers in Test (you will be writing cluster level end2end tests, not unit tests), and skilled IT desktop support.

All open jobs: http://grnh.se/8f7q15

If you are non-technical, but are interested in experiencing a hyper-growth startup, we also are hiring for JIRA workflow automation, operations, business development and other roles as well. If you care about such things, we were recently flattered/embarrassed to be highlighted as one of fifty potential next unicorns by the nytimes: http://nyti.ms/1JLKaCT

We're super proud of the company mission, engineering culture and tech stack we've put together and would love a chance to explain it all in detail!

*VISA minutiae:
We can transfer H1Bs but not sponsor them. We can sponsor TN visas in most cases. If you have another existing visa, we can probably transfer it.

I tend to run `watch kill -USR1 $(pidof dd)` in a second terminal. Watch executes your command repeatidly (by default every two seconds) so you then get regular dd status updates.
I don't disagree, there were always solutions. The app store just made it easier than the alternatives. But now the alternatives are easier than the store.
N1 is still in the early stages of development. It's missing email aliases, for example. LDAP + S/MIME are definitely not implemented yet.

That said, the platform seems to have potential. I don't see any reason why these couldn't be implemented as plugins.
The "Unable to install GRUB" recommended fix to remove the GPT is wrong. The proper thing to do is create a 1MiB partition, BIOSBoot partition type (gdisk internal code 0xEF02), and then grub-install will find it and install core.img there automatically.

Pixlee | San Francisco, CA | Full Time | ONSITE

Pixlee is revolutionizing the relationship between people and brands. We help companies leverage customer photos/videos from social media to improve marketing.

We work with over 100+ customers, including top brands such as Converse, Kenneth Cole, UGG Australia, Mattel, Charlotte Russe, Marriott Hotels, and AMC Theatres, to drive higher online conversion, increase performance of owned media, and create a more authentic brand experience. A graduate of the Stanford StartX accelerator, Pixlee is an Andreessen Horowitz and XSeed Capital portfolio company. As a rapidly growing startup, we are constantly looking for talented people to join the Pixlee team and to help us revolutionize the intersection of big data and social media. At Pixlee we work hard, love to learn, and value teamwork and humility. We’ve got a big vision and we’re looking for game changers to join our team.

We look for talented, high-potential individuals who aren’t jerks. Our proposition to them is simple: Pixlee offers a unique opportunity to thrive and grow rapidly in a small-team startup environment operating at big-company scale. Our customers are some of the largest brands in the world and everything you do here affects millions of consumers.

We believe in using the right technology for the task, and we use a mix of rails, backbone, python, scala, elasticsearch, and postgres.

For me, I've really felt that I've been able to really grow very rapidly, and also been given the autonomy to make many decisions you can't make at a much larger startup. Its a very tight knit group, and we like to have fun.

What we're looking for:
- Software Engineer: https://boards.greenhouse.io/pixlee/jobs/86332#.Vg126xNVhBc
- Other: http://www.pixlee.com/careers

You can also email a resume/portfolio to dennis[at]pixleeteam.com
Interesting, but I don't think it's useful because it doesn't actually tell you if previous discussion exists or not until you actually click it. I'm not going to click "past" on every story for the 1% chance that it will actually have results.

For it to be useful (to me at least), it should only show up if previous discussion exists, and it should be more prominent.

We offer web application security assessments, mobile application security assessments and source code review. We also offer company training and reverse engineering services, but I'm assuming you are most interested in web app sec and source code review, correct?

That's a needlessly uncharitable portrayal of it. A trigger warning can be used just like a movie's rating is. I don't avoid R rated movies, but I appreciate knowing when I'm walking into one.

To add something to what @robn already said - with Google Apps the resolution you get on contacts syncing is 96x96 pixels. Not sure what resolution FastMail supports, but seems to be OK on my 1440x2560 phone.
But the multiplication does not support the assertion. I am sure that many people biased by skin color can perform multiplication with the help of a calculator. The accuracy of the calculation is not at issue.

The issue is that the multiplication is not valid according to Bayesian probability analysis. It doesn't matter how valid the original numbers are if you interpret them incorrectly. The implicit appeal to authority is that a group known for social policy commentary is somehow expected to have greater credibility in the area of statistical analysis.

In reality, they are just as bad at it as everyone else.

So in exposing the appeal to authority, we see more clearly that the burden is on them to show that their analysis is mathematically correct. So tell me. Why does the multiplication support their claims?
Me too. I plan to try another TBS game in the future but Alpha Centauri was only one. And excellent. I loved all the options of gameplay and strategy that didn't exist in an RTS. Plus, the technology tree was well thought out and even gave me ideas. :)
Qt became available under GPL in 2000, so that would have been a potential match. Anyway, technology choices are of course very dependent on the project founders' skills and preferences.
Can confirm. I bought Goat Simulator from Steam about a year ago, have uninstalled Steam, and even moved the application between OSs and devices without any issue.
People outside of college can and absolutely should have access to safe spaces, yes. Why wouldn't/shouldn't they?

As for your second question, it's so obviously disconnected from what has been said so far that it's hardly worth even answering. A victim of homophobic intimidation who wants a space free of homophobic intimidation is not "reducing their ability to deal with the world they live in." You're stringing right-wing jargon terms together in ways that obviously don't make sense. A person doesn't have any less of a "curious mind" simply because they want to spend time in a place free of intimidation, violence, or hostility.
It all boils down to whether they get the Kohinoor back.
That's a long way of saying "you don't matter."
The term 'babysitting' as defined in the article it somewhat nebulous, but seems to at least include policing speech to avoid offending others.

However, the school's official rules tell students they should not engage in, "profanity, crude, vulgar, or offensive language, and disrespectful behavior [including] gossip, dishonesty, and malice." The school has a right to define behavior requirements for the student body (all of whom are adults who can choose to attend or not). However, if they are going to post an attack on a student who wishes to expand the speech restrictions on campus, it seems reasonable for them to explain why the student's ideas about restricting speech are bad and their ideas are good.

In a more general sense - most people agree there should be some limits on speech (fire in a theatre, etc). However, when someone suggests a limit on speech they don't like the reaction is like the one in the article: shocked disbelief that someone would want to restrict speech! I don't have strong feelings about "safe spaces" and the like, but I don't think the idea is that strange or hard to understand and that people should at least talk about it within our never-ending discussion about how we want to live with each other.
