The GC has been drastically improved recently and going to get another improvement in the next release - Go 1.6. Either way, if Python was considered, Go isn't less fit to be considered.

I use Instagram to share some of my photography experiments, and to discover new photographers; along with Twitter, it is my favorite social network. I don't think your point is well argued.
I think financing - provided you can obtain it at a good rate, which of course you can't if you're poor - makes sense whenever the benefits of a purchase are expected to be spread out over time.
I am sure the scammers would love such an API as well. Then the could model their fraudulent transactions on yours.

For example, they would make sure to go to the gas stations that you frequent. Or to the electronics store that you made a purchase at recently.

I worked at Citibank. They are barely competent. Don't ask for more access, they will probably screw it up.
You can think of a compressed file as a program (a set of instructions) executed by an interpreter (the decompressor) that builds the original file.

A smaller compressed file is usually going to contain fewer instructions for the decompressor to execute, so there's less work to do to reconstruct the original file.
> As a lifelong supporter of social justice, the new wave of “social justice warriors” and their denunciation of healthy debate has come as a horrifying shock to me. Until recently, I believed that the fight for equality would herald a new age of empathy, diversity and understanding. Instead, many of my previously liberal allies have been taken over by the cult of victimhood and a collective fear of rejection. Like teenagers, they constantly check in with each other to affirm whether what they think is acceptable – and who can blame them? The consequences of dissent are excommunication from the tribe.

Seriously, latest season of South Park seems the best depiction of this phenomenon that I've seen so far.
The Deliberate, Radical Evolution of Apple
IntelliJ reminds me of ramp up prior to Firefox 3.5, forever announcing performance increases which never seem tangible. However we're at Firefox 43 now and it seems to have delivered on the 3.5 promises, I still hold out hold for IntelliJ perhaps nearer v20. Damn shame atm though as Cursive Clojure looks awesome.
I think she meant the group kicked her out because the other members were unable to work with someone who openly disagreed with them.
I was never very advanced at cracking, but I do remember back on the C64 I encountered a number of games that had corrupt/unreadable sectors on the disk. Many copy programs would halt when they encountered these errors meaning you couldn't copy the disk. I had one program (no idea what it was called anymore) that would skip the errors and write everything else. To beat the copy protection, I would open the sector with the read error on the original disk, swap out for my mostly complete copy, and then write the disk error to that sector. I always thought it was kind of weird that I could write an unreadable error, but it seemed to work most of the time.
Off-topic of off-topic: I tried to google it and came up with this instead: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FcAgIapM9HM and it was just to magnificent not to share
Wow .. It looks like it would have been more fun to crack the encryption than actually play that game!
Just to offer my own insight on the subject.

I'm 28 years old and haven't drank a drop of alcohol in about 10 years. I still go clubbing until the sun rises (only when certain artists are playing, not a regular night).

I don't drink for various reasons. I don't like the taste, I get no enjoyment from being drunk or tipsy and I dislike the lack of control.

Almost every friend I have, and a long list of strangers, have told me while drunk that they will never drink again. I've lost count of how many times I've heard it, it's kind of funny. I've also had people open up to me much more when they are drunk and they know that I'm not. More-so than I've noticed them be with other drunk people. I don't know why this is.

Every time I go out clubbing people ask to buy drugs from me. Drug dealers must always be the sober ones.

I've had many people refuse to believe that I'm only drinking water and that it must be for taking pills.

One downside to being in constant control is being hyper-aware of what's going on around you. I notice every little detail of everyone's actions and have to remind myself that they're all drunk and didn't mean to do most of what they are doing.

One nice thing about being sober while going out is I've had to force myself to be comfortable talking to strangers without being drunk. It's made me much more confident. Not drinking has made me face my thoughts and feelings in the moment much more directly. You eventually mellow out after getting over the "hyper-aware" phase.
OP here I agree with you it can be misleading into thinking that FreeBSD is _now_ available on the RPi which of course would be very misleading and simply untrue because FreeBSD on the RPi is nothing new. Reading the others comments, it's not misleading. Changing the title to what you have suggested would be nice for the FreeBSD devs mailing list and would not appeal to many people on HN. The point of the post is to draw attention to FreeBSD on the RPi and FreeBSD as it's really a great piece of software and__not__ to the patch itself. And I thing IMHO that the RPi can be great a great vector to enlarge the user base of FreeBSD with all the benefits that this can bring to the project.

"Ending cronyism is fairly straight-forward" - I don't think so. Surely you can end one kind of cronyism by replacing it by another one - but it is practically impossible to have a system where those who are better off cannot use their resources for political ends. The bandaids is all there can be done.

And by the way it is also possible that democracy was only possible because of mass conscription - the state needed the masses so the masses got some share in power.
How is it unqualified if they are talking about people they know? And likely excluding people on the job at nightclubs.
Most Intellij IDEA users (including myself) are former Eclipse users. Could I go back to Eclipse? Sure, but I wouldn't be as productive with it as I am using Intellij. I found myself fighting the UI and configuration way more with Eclipse than I have with Intellij. This might not be an issue if using 1-2 programming languages, but if using more than that, it gets pretty tedious in Eclipse.

Used Eclipse for 3-4 years when I was a student before discovering Intellij. Haven't gone back to Eclipse since then other than just testing once or twice a year.
How to buy things in the future
Building a native iOS app and using Html5 based UI
Fair enough. I know about Germany, but I missed Paris and Madrid - thanks for the info. Though how much % of the total operations is that?

But it's not bending it, it's disregarding and breaking it. Bending was what Uber-like services have been doing in Europe for past 10+ years, and in time they managed to integrate themselves with the infrastructure nicely.

In my city the IRS tries to randomly call and then fine the living crap out of Uber drivers, but it doesn't seem to be effective. Frankly, if Uber teaches people anything it's how slow and inefficient local governments have become. Which is both good and bad to know. On the other hand, local startup community figured out that they're obliged to help Uber win, so they promote them and jobhunt for them and if our startup community is good at anything, it's good at promoting and finding people.
Tell them that you would like to show them a pie chart of how many lines of code your team removed. Find a team member who removed 2000 lines of code, then promote them and give them a big payrise. Nickname them "Bill".
Promotional piece, none of the drawbacks are mentioned.

Plastic roads are a nice idea but all weather conditions are not yet where they need to be.

Also I am dubious of prefabricated roads. The UK had large sections of concrete roads on the M25 for a long time. The concrete might have been harder wearing but they end up not being completely level and you end up with lots of road noise as you travel over the joins.
Html5StarterAppWithSwift: Native iOS App with Html/JS/CSS Powered UI
In the open-source repository: Html5StarterAppWithSwift(https://goo.gl/oG4mnO) on Github, I demonstrate how to make a native iOS app that uses a Html5 based UI. The repo contains an Xcode project that shows an iOS app which has a tab-based UI powered by the Ionic framework(http://goo.gl/Q6L1cd). The motivation for making an iOS app using such a technique was due to my background as a Java developer and I explain that in detail in these blog posts, "Making an iOS app like making a Java web app" Part 1(http://goo.gl/2V0tMg) and Part 2(http://goo.gl/oJpTWH).
Yes, if you use software to work on some sort of information, this software will have access to this information.

Yes, if you use SAAS software, this information will be processed by remote servers.

Yes, if you use proprietary software, you will not know exactly how is this information processed.

And finally, if you have someone who is willing to work as school clerk, given how much do these jobs pay and how interesting they are, this person will likely not understand the complexity of these issues and will be a little bit lazy with their job, so she probably will not present parents with all the relevant information.

Now, every single one of these facts seem obvious; how is combination of these facts warrant an article in one of the biggest newspapers all of a sudden?
Why your Resolution will fail
I don't know why you deleted your other comment just now, but I agree with it. When I get just one like, I'm thinking to myself how awesome I must be because I touched another person's experience this moment with some photo or comment I made to the world electronically. If I got 15 likes, I'd be wondering if I'm some kind of gifted social icon without knowing it!
Hopefully the 80 character restriction applies.
a) I didn't know that Trump had written something called "Crippled America." b) Explaining Obama's rise by means of his books is a stretch; how many people actually bought and read them? c) It seems to me that the popularity of the Little Red Book came from Mao's power, and not vice-versa.
Highlights from  “The Village Effect: Why Face-To-face Contact Matters”
That's a bit strong. I love sharing photos with friends and family, and Instagram makes these super easy to do, and quickly, and with easy ways to get comments from those I'm interested in.

Instagram itself is not the problem. How teenagers are using social media is a behavior or perspective issue in my opinion, not a problem with an actual product that just offers a nice tool. Growing up before the internet, these attitudes were in effect, just exposed differently. Honestly I think it is a cultural problem, because there are other places in the world where this obsession with acceptance does not exist, and where everything is not driven by ego or lack thereof.

I found this reference quoted in the OA interesting, but the Harvard Business Review Web page certainly is noisy especially in contrast to the OA's relatively calm presentation.

Quote from OA

"Having been in an executive role for nearly 13 years now, I’ve learned the hard way (many times…) how dangerous it can be to “leak” your immediate emotions."

I think this is fairly standard practice for most senior managers. I'm actually impressed with the ability some of the managers I work with/to can actually 'frame shift' into the concerns of others without appearing dismissive.
I see your excitement about Numba, I guess you follow it closely, or perhaps have other valid reasons. So all the best. However, the last time I tried to use it, about 4 months ago, installation was a bitch and it would crap out compiling some functions. It holds promise of course, so does alternatives.

What I think the current post is about is that similar nice and performant abstractions for D. I love Python a lot but I have to pay extra attention so that it is performant, so that I don't make stupid typos. I have to rewrite parts in Cython or Weave (sadly the latter gets no love anymore). Larger the code base becomes I have to spent more time in the tail part of the 'tooth to tail' ratio. In D many of these are taken care by default, I have to worry a lot less about these things. The other fantastic thing is DMD has super fast compilation times. It used to be faster than Go in compilation time but the latter has caught up in that department (grossly lacking in others). D binaries execute a lot faster (when compiled with LDC or GDC). It may lack some libraries here and there, but that does not worry me as much, everyone has to start somewhere, and to be honest Python is lacking in that respect compared to R. What would be worrisome is the presence of structural aspects that may get in the way of such an eco-system emerging. I don't see anything of that kind in D.

In anycase I don't quite see how Numba obviates the issues I mentioned. It does not change the Ndarray representation, and the extra indirections lay right there. OTOH some copy elision I would grant.

I can give concrete examples. The isotonic regression implementation in scikits.learn was absolutely pathetic. It has been rewritten several times and its performance is still severely lacking in spite of being Cythonized. You can take a stab at it with Numba and see what you can do. In C++ (D would have been nicer) the very first idiomatic implementation in STL was faster than any of these rewrites. I wrote it once and moved on. But C++ is a horrifying mess, now if there was a language that gave me C++ performance (not asking for much) but none of the mess and numpy level expressiveness to boot, that would be sweet. Julia, Nim, D, PyPy are some of the contenders trying to reach this holy grail

I feel that this discussion about income inequality doesn't do us any good mostly because both sides are kinda right but they fail to realize that and just try to promote their own agenda. Economy seems simple but in reality there are millions of variables. Is the income inequality a real problem depends on a lot of those variables and possible solution depends on them too. Education of population, infrastructure built, society culture, human nature, society homogeneity, corruption, political system, dominant industries, social mobility, tax rates, efficiency in using tax revenue, various incentives etc. Everything matters and if you want to implement some policy you need to take into account as much as you can before deciding what is the best policy. Like a chess player calculates multiple steps in the future so should economists.
For example in some dirt poor country with bad education and huge corruption the higher income inequality will result in even lower total pie while in silicon valley (where Graham comes from) increased income inequality just makes pie bigger to everyone (and that's why Graham argument is what it is). The problem is that everyone choose to see what they want to see and then argue about different thing than the other side.
I understand that some John "The programmer and self labeled savior of the poor" thinks he is very smart economist and argues that if someone has too much and then someone has too little lets just take from rich and give it to the poor. But real world is much more complex. And before we even start discussing what we should do about income inequality we should first agree on what exactly we are arguing about. What is income? What is inequality? What is fair share of taxes? What is wealth? What is capital? Even what is the economy and how it works! How one or another policy will affect various economic activities? Analysis must be much broader than simply stating your opinion that being rich are bad (or good).
This 3 Easy Tricks Makes Her Blackheads Disappear
> US pumps should have chips like they do in most every other developed nation.

I'm confused: Are you talking about chips in the pumps - or the cards? The article seems to show a deep integration into the pumps to steal not only the magstripe data, but also the PIN. So I guess they already target chip & pin systems?

Plus, depending on the architecture of these systems you can 'degrade' a transaction from 'needs pin' to 'pin not required' (we had a couple of related downgrade articles here on HN and the 32C3 had - specific to Germany, but acc. to the authors probably somewhat applicable elsewhere - a talk about direct attacks against payment terminals to do the same thing).
Ronson's book is excellent - I can highly recommend it.

Justine Sacco didn't suffer a "devastating online lynching". She got a ton of nasty tweets and emails, and she got fired from her job. She found a new job (one she likes) and the internet fury eventually blew over. Unpleasant? Certainly. A lynching? Heck no.

There are people who do get beaten or killed for who they are. Transgender people regularly fear for their physical safety. Minorities get abused and even killed by the police on a daily basis. So when people protest this sort of injustice online or in real life you'd expect the author to be supportive of this. Except no, she apparently considers this horrifying mob-like behavior of social justice warriors.

It's the lazy stance where she supports social justice activism in theory, but when it comes down to actually protesting abuses of power (which can include rioting and other mob-like behavior) she considers it unacceptable. Never mind that historically speaking large scale public protests (= mobs) have often brought meaningful social progress. I wonder if democracy can even function without it, because people must have a way to make their voices heard when the official channels are closed to them.

Don't get me wrong. Mobs are blunt instruments and without question scary. However, they're not uniquely or especially scary. So when I hear something like "[mobs] are the thing that frighten me most in the world" I have to roll my eyes. Other political issues are scarier by several orders of magnitude. Nuclear war. Global warming. NSA spying. Democracy getting hijacked. Perpetual war. Not on this list: Internet rage directed at Sacco.

1. She's describing "in-group" preferences in most of the latter part of the article, not herd mentality. These are two separate things.

2. Since libertarianism is, by definition, fully supportive of the rights outlined in the constitution, being anti-gun / gun-grabber / endlessly wanting more government restrictions on what is a fundamental constitutional right makes her not a libertarian. The criticisms levied against her on this front are correct.

3. She's quite insulting. "most sane individuals on this side of the Atlantic," implying one must be insane to respect and honor 2nd amendment rights? "Preening contrarians," "infantile sneering," "rejoice in this toxic effluence." Yikes. Exactly how full of disdain and contempt is she regarding anyone's opinions that don't precisely align with her own? I find it rather hard to believe anyone she is criticizing is as vitriolic as the author seems to be.

4. The important thing is, she's found a way to feel superior to everyone..

I'm a dabbler with both Scala and Kotlin, and haven't really used Scala much for the past couple of years, but IMHO Scala's implicit definitions makes it hard to reason about what's going on behind the scenes, and I think Kotlin gets the right balance with its extension methods.
Print fits much better with python's functions than its statements. I think it is notably tricker if the most common piece of code you pass arguments to has no parentheses, but everything else does.
The problem with OMF is that it is entirely based in an earlier work of mine Wahoo, which I put together over a weekend and while it improved over the very original oh-my-zsh clone, it was not very good.

See the merge commit here:

* https://github.com/oh-my-fish/oh-my-fish/commit/2693a2fd18bd...

And compare to Wahoo here:

* https://github.com/bucaran/wahoo

Fisherman is a project of a different caliber, forged over a longer period of time, truer to the UNIX philosophy in principle "everything is a stream", built for extensibility and to solve OMF slow shell start issue (that has been a problem ever since I joined the project almost 2 years ago) and of course, backward compatible with OMF/Wahoo plugin/theme ecosystem.

List of Foods Not to Eat
Nobody wanted a world war, but lots of people wanted a war between Germany and Russia, which would drag France into it. They just assumed it could be over quickly and they would be the victors (and it came very close to being true for the Germans. Had the Miracle on the Marn not happened or had Russia mobilized slower the Germans might really have out flanked the French army).

Hitler assumed he would be able to get away with taking Poland, as he had gotten away with taking pretty much anything up to that point and the Germans were extremely pissed over the Versey treaty, so much so that they were willing to go along with it.

Today we know what happens if we go to war with each other, and if anybody in Germany doubts it, they can go see the huge hill outside Berlin (or inside it) were they dumped all the broken bricks that couldn't be reused when the war ended and they had to rebuild the city.

So yeah, that is why I don't believe there will be another war in Europe proper again at least for the next 100 years.

I was merely paraphrasing my understanding of sanders' argument.

But the argument has merit if the wage is not livable. The two issues the make this an issue (or a nonissue) is what is a minimum livable wage, and whether or not it is the governments role to enforce that or not. (No idea about the first, I think Yes about the second)
