I can vouch for this. Lots of theoretical physics on there (in fact, I would say the majority of it). Whether stuff is posted on arXiv highly depends on the field.
FTTH also involves household powering for the connection to work. Even if a battery at the household end is supplied, will these be regularly tested and replaced when needed?
Is there a public link to your work? I just checked out vvvv (interesting stuff!) and also found a JavaScript version: https://github.com/zauner/vvvv.js (Don't know compatibility though).
yup. as long as we and our representatives care more about symbolism and posturing than about unpalatable reality

Do you mind sharing any references about this?
I think you presume too much about the motives and planning behind the majority of car thefts.

A professional car thief who steals cars in order to resell them may very well work that way. But I suspect those people are a small minority in comparison to the opportunists who probably don't have appropriate spare plates on hand, or the desperate criminals trying to pick up a getaway car, or the joyriders, etc.
It's a weak form of democracy, with many freedoms, but not a direct participatory democracy, which I agree is the correct and proper form of government.
For me, it has always been the terminology. The basic theorems are relatively easy to understand... once you can remember the vast number of algebra-specific definitions. The field also has a proclivity for umm "colorful" choices of names.

It's not unlike say Haskell, which IMO is pretty straightforward once you have a feel for all the terminology.

This is one of those papers where the title sounds vaguely legitimate, but the underlying analysis is only tangentially related to the topic. Also, consider

"less attention has been paid to the question of how to manage those workers on the opposite side of the spectrum: those who are harmful to organizational
performance."

Which is complete rubbish--GE placed a huge focus on doing performance reviews and culling the "bottom 10%". A practcice which started a trend (called forced ranking) that grew to include many of the fortune 500, in cluding perhaps famously Microsoft.

Its either a bafflingly careless omission or a cynical gesture to pretend this topic is somehow "under the radar" in business school or corporate HR departments.
I feel like the thousand dollar Dell was actually profoundly more powerful.
I actually found out about this because the guy that created this project contacted me with respect to a package I had uploaded that contained my .npmrc. I was totally blown away, as I'd just followed instructions for creating an npm package I found online. When he contacted me -- prior to publishing this work, which leaves me in awe of his coolness -- panic ran through my veins, because I'm usually paranoid about this kind of thing. Through talking with him, I discovered that I'd published my .npmrc inadvertently, and I got pretty mad at npm that it was even possible. When the npm people contacted me (I'm assuming they had acted on ChALkeR's contacting them), they were very receptive to the obvious feedback of checking for this kind of thing when publishing.

High-energy physics. Yes, literally every paper that's worth your time is on arxiv first. The only time anyone reads from an actual peer-reviewed journal is when something that was on arxiv eventually gets published (you know, a year later) and might have minor corrections. And I don't know a single person that picks up journals for those crucial papers that were never posted to arxiv.

What's the point of "formal peer-review", anyway? If you're in the community you talk to your colleagues about what's on arxiv and you know what's good and what isn't. You don't need a journal to tell you.
I quite like the example of styling buttons in the header using a more component-like architecture, this could lead to some interesting developments. I look forward to seeing this progress.
At the end of Lemma 2, "[9, Th. 8, (39)]" seems to be referring to corollary 1 of Theorem 8 on page 70 of [1], equation (3.30). Maybe "(39)" is meant to be "(30)".

Their argument for Theorem 1 seems not-crazy, and quite accessible.

All following about Structor (of which I'm apart of).

Imagine you should start a greenfield project for a Web app with modern UI (for example, a new micro service, which will have a Web app for the administration purpose).

And imagine, you have a starter-kit with a bunch of ready to use React UI components along with infrastructure for a Web app (for example, react-redux-starter-kit, but with React Bootstrap and React Widgets libs inside).

In addition, you have a tool, which allows visually combine any type of components on the Web page. Moreover, this tool has an ability to generate a scaffolded source code for UI components connected to any kind of frameworks like Redux, Relay, etc. (with actions, reducers, routes, so on…).

The tool automatically compiles all new source code and reuses all generated components on the page.

Of cause, you are not limited in editing the source code of the project in your favourite IDE, because compiler and hot-loader will patch pages with your changes in tool's workspace.

Would you like to use such a tool in your project?

And if yes, what type of the scaffolds for the source code you would like to use?

a) Infrastructure generators:

Generate REST service with Swagger docs by entered Swagger configuration format.

Generate GraphQL server by entered data structure in GraphQL schema format.

b) Component generators:

Generate Redux wrapped components connected to existing REST API.

Generate Relay wrapper components connected to existing GraphQL server.
Do not call 911 from your cell phone if you are at home. You'll most likely (at least in the bay area) get CHP, and their dispatch center frequently has hold times of several minutes. More than enough time for it to be too late.

Instead, you should add the local emergency dispatch numbers to your phone as contacts. You can call the police station and ask for it - also ask them when it would be okay for you to call emergency dispatch to verify it routes correctly.

A lot of bay area numbers are listed here: http://www.ucop.edu/risk-services/_files/emergency/911local_...

Please stop what you are doing right now and program in the dispatch numbers for where you live and work.

Yes, Capability Myths Demolished describes the "revocable forwarder" pattern, which uses a proxy to delegate access in a revokable manner.

Macaroons on the other hand are nice because they don't need a proxy to solve this problem: the authorizer can issue a short-lived "discharge Macaroon" to authorize access, then the client can get to the target resource directly without the need to use a proxy. To revoke access: just refuse to issue subsequent discharge Macaroons when the current discharge expires.

There's a web interface. It's no worse than having a Slack channel.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RBAC is far more readable that the article in question and I have just proposed a merge on Wikipedia for 'Capability-based security' and 'Object-capability model', support if you wish. FWIW, I wrote an application-level implementation of RBAC a few years ago for a secure financial system prototype. It was an interesting experience, to say the least.
What struck me is the fine line between superstars and toxic workers. More or less, they look much alike. The main difference seems to be how they're perceived by coworkers and management. And how that affects their attitude toward the organization. I would have liked to see more about the impact of management style on forking superstars and toxic workers.

Hosts file.
I've been in people management roles and certainly dealt with a rare few who just couldn't get along with anyone and also a disruption to the productivity of others. In hindsight, what I found is these individuals will tend to have a history of short stays at many companies. Because of the litigious nature of US, the former employers will never disclose anything wrong in a reference check plus they just want to get that person out the door.
The master algorithm is going to change life as we know it
I think it's also because people on this community have worked at corporations where toxic workers aren't the problem--it's toxic managers.

If they are going to do a study on the impact of toxic workers on the workplace, surely they should do one on managers.
The term you're looking for is 'analist', it was the job of the analyst to tell the programmer exactly what to do. Now we're all analyst-programmers. That makes the programming job that much more interesting but analyst was a separate job for a reason: people with that particular skill were a whole lot more rare than people that could program.
Ah yes - the ol' "facing west near sunset" bug... I lost a few nights sleep to that one. :-)
Afterthought: If we really only had one implementation of something all our energy could go into making that one thing really good, which might even push the quality beyond the point where zero days would be an issue.
Clojure is a nice language, but it's not magic.

Other unrelated questions:

Are they going to pay you at market rate? (Are they going to pay you??)

How much equity would you get? (My usual joke is that if it's more than 20% you are a cofounder and if it's less than 2% you are an employee.)
On one level I agree - ensuring that it's easier for, say, a criminal gang to track unmarked police cars or abusive exes to find their victims seems a backward step.

The flips side of that, though, is that this power exists and is being used by rich, powerful entities anyway. If I was a law-abiding member of a mosque or political group, I'd love to know that undercover law enforcement officers are trying to stir up trouble, for example. If they can track me, why shouldn't I be able to track them? Or, less melodramatically, the highest rate of road fatalities in my country involve logging trucks. There are persistent claims that companies keep them on the road for more hours than their drivers are legally allowed to work, but they're politically shielded from official investigations. It would be nice for citizen groups to have the tools to investigate those claims.

If we should be able to go about free of day-to-day surveillance (absent good, court-approved cause), which I certainly agree with, then we should be modifying laws and institutions to reflect that. Since what we've got is a situation where the powerful (government agencies, large companies) use the absence of regulation and powerful tools to watch us the second-best option is for us to have the tools to watch them.

You must admit though, labelling the entire gastronomic aesthetic as "taste" is almost deceptive in its ability to downplay the level to which this drives human experience and motivation.

You might as well say that the only reason we have sex is because it feels good, and while celibacy is a great policy for self mortification and moral self-superiority over the common man, it has about as much realistic place as a policy for how we should manage community sexual mores as does vegetarianism or veganism does in a discussion on meat.

Indeed, the phrase "spice of life" makes inherent reference to the importance of taste, and I do not think a world without such as a prime accessible experience is a world most want to live in.
Whitebox Cryptography--Hiding keys in Software
That's a lot of work, plus you don't know if the owner of the stolen plate has warrants, suspended license, lack of insurance, or anything else that might cause an ALPRS alert. Better to just remove the plate and go. I commuted in one car for a year with no plate. Drove by cop cars with ALPRS regularly. I don't think these things alert when an object passes by but it failed to recognize a license plate.

In another car that I'd just purchased a cop pulled up next to me at a light and asked about my lack of plate. Said I bought it a couple days ago, he said I have X days in this state to get tagged and drove off.
People tend to refresh the same feeds/groups/sites repeatedly, unthinkingly. Each of those has biases depending on the people who post there. Something useful to interrupt the unthinking refresh cycle would be an app or extension that analyzes group sentiments and occasionally signals "You've visited this site 3 times today. Would you like to try one of the following to see some different viewpoints on the same topics?"

Probably not possible without privacy issues, but if opinions are already being tracked that way for advertising and surveillance purposes anyway, we could get some value out of it...

Humans can eat raw meat and do. Tartare, sushi, uncooked shellfish, blue rare, and so on is all raw, though not necessarily common because of disease caused by unsafe handling of the meats and the potential for eating live parasites from when the animal was alive.

A secondary reason for cooking meat is that it'll be more nutritious from the heat making the nutrients more accessible for the human body's digestive system.

Also, just for the record animals that do eat raw meat can get sick from it and/ or acquire parasites just the same as humans. Most people who have pets (particularly dogs that'll eat anything) for a long time experience this at some point.
and you also forgot the window titles.

but it doesn't matter anyways. all IP addresses are by definition public; there are only about 4 billion of them anyways, less than there are people on Earth. you should probably focus more on making your code secure rather than obfuscating your IP address in screenshots.

for example, in addition to what has already been said about /tmp, system() is almost never the correct answer. in this case, if options.user or dns contain "special characters" they may be interpreted by the shell differently from what you intended.
"enslaved" and "misery" are not words which are applicable.

Regardless of the day to day treatment of animals (which is only even "acceptable" in a tiny minority of places[1]), they are still bred to meet our needs and killed long before the end of their natural life. You shouldn't be measuring the treatment of the animals you eat relative to awful treatment they experience elsewhere in the world, you should measure it relative to the life the animals would lead naturally [edited from "in the wild"]. Animals killed for meat are usually slaughtered very early on in their life, long before they've lived 10% of what they would live naturally [edited from "in the wild"].

Indeed!

I've often wondered why, for instance, we don't build brand new A-10 Warthogs. They provide the best close air support in perhaps the entire history of military aviation worldwide (great range, extremely resilient to small arms fire, low altitude / low speed capabilities, etc.). Instead, the Marines Corps scrambles (no pun intended) to find a replacement after realizing that the JSF program wasn't real (it turns out that the F-35 will bankrupt the Milky Way Galaxy before being finished, not to mention it has too much wing loading to provide adequate close air support). Yet, the wonderfully designed A-10 Warthog languishes in military relic status.

Why not make new copies these greats, with any of the little kinks worked out?
Our teeth certainly support it. There's a difference between eating exclusively meat, and eating some meat.
Are there any tools that can scan all the users of an org for such credential leaks?
I am 24 and became like this from age 18 until recently. I felt like an old man. In my case it was caused by undiagnosed Celiac Disease. You may get value from looking into CD, Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity, or other food intolerances or allergies.
Lidar competes for outdoors scanning. Isnt kinect out of that game?
A lot of improvements have been done since that time.
> That being said, if you are a vegan on the internet ranting about animal cruelty and you own basically any mass produced clothing you need to re-examine your priorities.

Huh? Most cheap, mass-produced clothing is synthetic, for reasons of cost. I get what you're saying, but "basically any mass produced clothing" includes a whole lot of clothing items that are not derived from animal products.
In my B-school program we did read lots of HBS cases and most of those were about objective things like "could the company have adopted a different marketing strategy" not "how can the company legitimize its political machinations in a totalitarian labor system" So I was giving them the benefit.
It's definitely a common sentiment in the LISP community. It's probably valid if your tech is not linked to some platform/language/env that doesn't work well with Clojure.

I'd say the main argument against it, is that a decade ago the divide between LISPs and stacic languages (basically the mainstream at the time) was indeed huge. While today if you don't use a LISP you're probably going to go with a fairly dynamic and functional language anyways.

I'd only be wary if he has an absolutely religious conviction it's true. If it's an educated bet then it's fine in my book.
It's more interesting than, but not as amusing as, a tiny hicky-machine.
Yes, compare it to the C-130 which entered service around the same time as the B-52 - it's been revised many times over the years, up to the J model.
And questions like "why is google doing this" would seem to be one of the big reasons for the re-brand to Alphabet.

Alright? Yeah, why wouldn't it be alright?
Slack supports IRC and XMPP so it's at least mildly worse.
I wonder if an extremely range-limited RFID plate with a challenge-response system that only local LEAs can read (modulo leaks, of course) would be better. We'd lose the ability for people reporting a crime to say "plate XYZ on green car at location A just did Q illegal thing", but maybe "green car at location A just did Q illegal thing" would be good enough.
We've been building something that does exactly this, no domain yet though.. damn!
FWIW, people in Mozilla are working on a "JIT coach", which will tell you if performance critical sections of your code aren't getting JITed, and why. I believe this is almost ready for use, though I'm not sure when it will be presented.
Another comment mentioned that she's an actress.
Capability-based security and RBAC are completely different things. Some would say they are opposing philosophies.
the same way that Wireshark benefits security professionals by making it easier to monitor the network for bad people and audit applications to make sure they aren't doing bad things even though it also makes it easier for bad people to see what good people are doing.

* note: the definition of "good people" and "bad people" is not the point here
Care to explain why? I believe you may be confusing OS-level 'capabilities' implementations (eg. Linux's) with competing 'RBAC' implementations (of which Linux has at least two or three). In fact if you remove the waffle the abstract-level model is the same, and IMHO is that a Wikipedia article should deal with the subject as a whole using the most abstract terminology possible... referencing implementations and their terminological preference is a secondary concern.

> Eating meat is not natural. Humans are not predators.

Um, you are completely off base.

Current evidence seems to indicate that, in fact, many of our evolutionary changes from the great apes were all about hunting via endurance. Effectively we evolved to simply chase prey until it collapsed.

So, not only is eating meat natural, and not only are we predators. But, we are the implacable Terminator of the animal world.
Former President Jimmy Carter's cancer is gone
Interesting site. Can I ask what your dev process looked like? Make a shareasale.com account, scrape the fanatics site, generate shopify stuff, generate pages, and then do marketing?
This certainly makes me think about things. Many animals in the wild fall victim to predators (a terrible and painful death), and many die prematurely of illness and famine.

The meat I eat doesn't have those problems.

We do indeed slaughter it "as soon as it is ready" rather than at end of natural life though, it's certainly something for me to think more about.
The two other comments underneath this one (at the time of my writing) both state something along the lines of "of course humans can digest raw meat, because there are raw meat dishes". This is reasoning is flawed. You can eat a lot of things that you can't digest.

I also believe, though, that we can and do digest raw meat. But I have no specific knowledge about that (and this is not a request to get spammed with data, thanks).

How to get a job at Google as a data scientist
