Ah, I guess my reference point was old. There the discrepancy lay. I hadn't tried Gnome since 3.1(?) (early 2014? does that sound right?) at which point it wasn't nearly as clean as your DE (which is super pretty, I'll readily admit). I think we're really on the same page for the most part.

How much tweaking went into that? Do you have a write-up with what sort of steps you took to integrate that sort of functionality (added fonts/behavioral changes/dbus integration type components, etc)?

I'm with you on the "beating OS X" threshold re: UI.
Between the whole Atom/Electron/LightTable type WebKit environments, you can develop on any machine. Likewise IntelliJ(Cursive for Clojure), emacs and vim all work as well if not better on Linux. Unless you are tied into Xcode, the development experience for an engineer is finally desktop-ready as the (very challenging) OSX-interface parity threshold has been broken.
>Nothing is hard to do in CLJS but finding the right way to do things can be hard.

So you're saying that you have to learn the language and its ecosystem. Please explain how that's different from any other language.

>For example, why doesn't core.async include promises and even better some async/await equivalent?

Because it has different design goals.

>Why are those only found in some 3rd party libraries?

Because most people find the core.async approach to work well. However, since such libraries exist and have great documentation, I fail to see the problem.

In fact, not baking things into the language itself is one of the greatest benefits of Clojure. The language itself is minimal and makes very few assumptions. This means that it can be extended through libraries to many kinds of domains. The more assumptions the core language makes the more rigid it becomes.
MSE was absorbed into Windows Defender in Windows 8 & 10. I don't recall any publicity from Microsoft telling their users this - I only know because I did google searches on how to install MSE on Win8 which turned up the answer that its already in there, just renamed.

In my experience, a lot of people, including IT people who should know, have not gotten the message. There are a lot of people paying a lot of money for crap snake oil when they could have free (arguably better) snake oil.

In Windows 8, functionality has increased to offer antivirus protection as well. Windows Defender in Windows 8 resembles Microsoft Security Essentials and uses the same virus definitions.

For decades there have been continued, sporadic albeit unsuccessful attempts to get a land based pipeline for Iranian gas built supplying both Pakistan and India. The idea of India paying transit fees to Pakistan for the gas is well established. The hold up is in other aspects of the effort. Furthermore according to Wikipedia:

"As there are concerns over the pipeline being attacked by Baluchi insurgents, an alternative offshore route from Iran to the maritime boundary between India and Pakistan off Kutch was proposed. According to this proposal, from there one branch was to run to Pakistan while other branch to run to Kutch". So Pakistan is already part of these discussions around a underwater pipeline.

This applies to almost every entity - whether a system, industry, organization or individual. Any value the entity delivers externally is of secondary concern to the entity, but it is also how the entity defines its usefulness in the eyes of others.
Chinese medicinal herbs provide niche market for US farmers
Such a device already exists, and has been sold to many countries: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ADE_651

> The device has been sold to 20 countries in the Middle East and Far East, including Iraq and Afghanistan, for as much as US$60,000 each. The Iraqi government is said to have spent £52 million on the devices.

> Investigations by the BBC and other organisations found that the device is little more than a "glorified dowsing rod" with no ability to perform its claimed functions. In January 2010, export of the device was banned by the British government and the managing director of ATSC was arrested on suspicion of fraud, and in June 2010, several other companies were raided by British police. ATSC was dissolved on 5 March 2013. On 23 April 2013, the founder of ATSC, Jim McCormick, was convicted of three counts of fraud at the Old Bailey in London, and was subsequently sentenced to ten years' imprisonment.
Haven't had a chance to read the article yet, but is this normalized by shopping volume by gender, by chance? Perhaps it is an unjustified stereotype, but the women I know shop more than men (i.e., higher demand) so the price would naturally go up.

It can be a very early step towards "self-flying" delivery network between major US cities.

I wouldn't be surprised if in 15-20 years Amazon / Google / Uber / Elon Musk are operating a national fleet of electric self-flying cargo airplanes.
Also, I should clarify that the library was originally orthogonal to my PhD work and done at home on my laptop at night. The very early version of the library was about a summer's worth of full time (unfunded) work. I didn't start absorbing it into my research until the end of my Ph.D.
Considering that Win10 has been shown to run an always-on key-logger that reports in to Microsoft every 5 minutes, I think it's safe to call this especially bad.

Everything you type, in every application you run, all the time. You can't block this "telemetry" with Windows either. Microsoft has hard coded the DNS entries to bypass HOSTS file checking.

Also voice and camera records get sent to Microsoft.

None of this is contingent upon having or logging in to your Microsoft account. You don't even have to be using Microsoft features like Cortana or Bing. Microsoft has made the business decision that if you are running their OS, you are using their computer, not yours. They seem to be right that the majority are willing to hand over the keys for a "superior user experience".

The only way to prevent 10 from phoning home is either to disconnect it from the Internet, or connect through a dedicated firewall machine which blocks the collection endpoints. Win 10 will still be running that key logger in the background, though. It's built in.

Why is this on Hacker News?

How does it fit within the guidelines set?

"Anything that good hackers would find interesting. That includes more than hacking and startups. If you had to reduce it to a sentence, the answer might be: anything that gratifies one's intellectual curiosity."

On that same note, why are there frequently topics about gender politics on a site specifically designed for technology. I thought we were trying to "get over a gender bias." Acting like you're hip and "women friendly" by allowing pro-women politics isn't helping your cause.

-------

My 2 cents:

1. There is nothing that restricts women from buying "mens" gendered items in those cases. (Women are able to cross over both lines in the majority of cases, men.. not so much [when it comes to clothes])

2. Some of the items described are designed differently and composed of different materials. Women's clothes are designed differently, represent different risks in the market, and have much different demands by the purchaser.

3. "Price discrimination" - Despite the cherry picked examples.. they represent 2 different markets, and they are selling the items at a price that the market is accepting.
You are absolutely right on both counts. That's why they did it and that's why they had everyone in the truck take the test. They had also recently lost a major workers comp lawsuit which was probably frivolous, but they lost because of lax policies and lax policy enforcement. This policy was also one of many over corrections. Maybe there is no way around having a policy like this, but it still bit them in the ass at least this one time and probably many others.
There's very little substance in the original post as well. Anecdote after anecdote.

> I've seen plenty of bugs where the original fix didn't fix everything

You're right, but plenty of bugs aren't for a browser extension that is supposed to enhance the user's security when browsing the internet. The initial fix appeared to show a complete lack of understanding of basic web security.

If you and an intelligent coworker have an agreement to review each other's code on commit, and that coworker responds to a valid complaint about what they've written with something that's probably lifted off of the first StackOverflow post they searched for that addresses the literal value of the complaint without actually solving the problem, you'd probably be a bit peeved that they're not doing their job. Here, the Chrome developers are just showing frustration at AVG's apparent lack of basic skill.

Department stores have a bigger women's section from clothing and other items. They keep more women's items in stock because they have to have a larger selection for women because women's fashion values are different from that of men. Keeping a bigger section for women or females means they have to mark it up more. They mark it up more because they don't sell all of it and have to eat the cost of the items that don't sell and are out of season.

My wife just uses my razor blades to shave her legs, she knows the women's version costs more. (I don't shave my legs, I shave my face and my wife uses my extra razors to shave her legs).

But I agree the women's version should cost the same as the men's version.

Usually the men's version is made first, and then they have to hire a designer to make the women's version. The cost of that designer is figured into the cost of the women's version. But sometimes it is just greed as well.

Edit: Added note about razors due to confusion.
For me the most interesting thing here is the rejection of direct compilation to native code via LLVM. This team has concluded that the safest and most practical way to target Apple's platform is using one of Apple's compilers (in this case, clang).

I'm not sure if I agree with that conclusion. After all, RubyMotion and the Elements Compiler (www.elementscompiler.com) have kept up with all the new compiler requirements from Apple, including the requirement to emit bitcode for watchOS and tvOS. So clearly it's possible. And using LLVM directly, rather than using C as an intermediate representation, yields more control over debug information. Still, it's possible that at the next WWDC, or even next September, Apple will drop something new that will force us to use one of their compilers.

> or use a multiscopic display, a technology that doesn't currently exist at any acceptable resolution.

That’s definitely wrong.

REALEYES[1] has built some prototypes, although they only sell static ones.

At my university we actually have a high-resolution (1080p) multiscopic display from them.

It’s just 80'000k EUR
Twin Peaks probably counts, but the other two are wayyy outside of what IMO people would consider "SF".
I'm working through stockfighter.io, lots of fun!
Market prices for anything are a random walk in the short-term. Let's look at some longer trends if we want to draw sound conclusions.
A lot of foreign workers are willing to work for less money, in exchange for a H1-B visa.

Why are they willing to do that? Because H1-Bs are scarce.

Why is it scarce? Because a lot of Americans have decided that H1-Bs should be limited, because they fear foreign workers coming over and working for less money.
It's very difficult to 'not tolerate' the government's policies and behavior.

Hard to know how to change a problem behavior, hard to organize against it, and if you do organize against an existing power structure, you can be sure there are companies making money off the existing structure that can counter-organize with easier access to funding than your own group.
Opposite to everyone here - it's a big, fat no from me. I'm taking the 10 days to spend time with my family and finish some books. I'm always on the feeds and seeing what's happening, but it is, in my opinion, very important to down the tools and have a break. It's the same reason I don't code on vacation.
Just out of interest, what kind of razors do you use to shave your legs?
People, there is a war. Are you willing to do you part?

Is that practical? Seems to me like the weight of the batteries required for long-distance flight would make this rather impractical.
There is a separate "superstar" visa. The O-1 visa is available to "individuals with an extraordinary ability in the sciences, education, business, or athletics".

The claimed point of H1B is to benefit Americans and the American economy by filling positions which have a temporary shortage, in a way that does not drive down wages. Of course that's not even close to how it works in practice.
USPS loses money because key republican congressman require that they do things like over fund pensions, while maintaining grossly unprofitable services like shipping parcels to Alaska at ground rates. Their universal service mandate also requires that they do last mile delivery to every address, so UPS and Fedex dump that work to them for pennies on the dollar.

The US has welfare which covers the things you describe - this is excluded from the poverty measure. You could provide $1MM/year in in-kind benefits (servants, an estate, you name it) but you wouldn't decrease poverty (as defined by the US govt) at all.

I have lowered my personal consumption to US poverty levels (<$20k/year) while living in homeless shelter like conditions (minus the homeless people, aka youth hostels). In fact i enjoy it so much that I'm checking into one tonight; hello Singapore!

The idea that poverty is not some absolute value is kind of crazy - if we solve all this kid's current problems but give other people flying cars and robots (maintaining his relative position), will he still be unable to finish school?

Also, why do you bring up a highly non-representative example (a person working full time) to personify poverty? Why not choose a far more representative person, like someone not working at all or even seeking work?http://www.epi.org/publication/poor-people-work-a-majority-o... http://www.bls.gov/opub/reports/cps/a-profile-of-the-working...

The blog post's image on a child's struggle is kinda sorta one example. It shows the pencil at the last stroke of the bottom right character and that stroke order is wrong. Correct stroke order is shown here: https://en.m.wiktionary.org/wiki/%E6%88%90

To answer your question, if the image doesn't show the pencil positioned on that last stroke, I'd say that the characters don't look right and may infer but cannot tell for sure that they were written using incorrect stroke orders.
They cherry picked a retailer that was out of stock and listing an old price on the pink scooter.

>The FDA should really be called the IPA - Incumbent Protection Agency.

the Theranos story i think clearly shows one more time why such protection from "disruptors" is necessary. Unfortunately we still don't know how to do it more efficiently though.

My personal favorite here is FAA - who basically stalled to the complete halt the aircraft development for the last half of century, yet even here i understand the rationale behind it.
There is a difference between not needing more journalists and not needing journalists.
Frustration is fine. I'd even be fine if they banned AVG. But revealing a 0-day publicly without giving time to respond is worse, and is also not in line with Google's policies as I understand.

Many security bugs are for things that one might think are basic after hearing about them, and that shouldn't make it right to 0-day them.

edit: why would revealing a vulnerability to the world before it's been fixed be the right response to incompetence on the part of the vendor?
I repaired an awful lot of TV's as a student - for fun and beer, not money - and somehow managed to survive. The Philips K9 chassis was a favourite, an example of how to design (analog) hardware for ease of maintenance and debugging. Just pop off the back, open the circuit board doors and the whole of its innards were available for debugging.

No, it is not that dangerous provided you know which bits to be careful with. It can look dangerous though, especially in those cases where the HT line starts producing corona discharges ranging from bluish clouds to fat streaming sparks (the more the merrier).
> You know, given the sheer amount of JS that has been written successfully in the last ten years, I think it might be worth asking: is it really needed to continue mudballing that type of stuff onto the language?

That's a good question. If it helps write a specific pattern and make it more readable I think it's worth it.

People are going to write these stuff anyway, why not help making things more readable for anybody else ? it's not going to change the nature of javascript, I'd argue that things like proxies or decorators are far more questionable than multiple inheritance, yet they made/are making it to the spec.

Nobody can deny Python code looks usually clean and mostly readable. Nobody can deny that Javascript code is often unreadable because ES3/5 developers didn't have the syntax to convey specific ideas in a eloquent way(thus all the prototype plumbing, module pattern and co that made js code look like brainfuck,don't even get me started on ninja coding).
I'm curious, what do you think is new in hearing aids?

edit: Just looked at iHear. I'm skeptical: There's a reason pretty much all hearing aid researchers advocate outside-of-ear hearing aids. But I didn't look into it much so maybe there's something I missed.
Its not just an in-state/out-of-state issue. In-state private universities (which in many cases are less expensive for many students after need-based aid than public universities) may be just as problematic as out-of-state universities in taking CC credits.

> If you're looking for in state, though, the savings from a CC are huge, especially if you can still live at home while attending

"Live at home while attending" vs. "move out to live near school" is a separate axis of variation from CC vs. university. But, yes, its somewhat more likely that this will be a viable option with a CC.
All of those are important though. I've watched affluent kids drop out of school due to a lack of hard work.
The bayview and glen park places you posted are literally blocks from the SF city limits and only technically count as being in the city most people would not realistically call that in the city. The twin peaks place is in the city and i do concede that every once in a while a cheap place like that comes on the market but there will be at least 50 people competing for that apartment, i have a better chance winning a scratch off lottery ticket than getting that apartment, i know i tried getting similar apartment in twin peaks last time i was looking. There is also possibility that it is scam and they just collect 100 dollar application fees from everyone and dont rent it to anyone. It is not realistic to say this is average 2 bedroom you can get in SF because not even 10% of people could get an apartment like this, i doubt if even 1% of people could find a place like this not count all the people in rent controlled apartments here for 10-20 years
"marijuana dowsing rods" are effectively the drug dogs often used to get "probable cause" to search someone's car without a warrant or any actual probable cause. They're effectively trained to give a positive return on whatever car the police point them at, to get around whichever amendment it is that law-enforcement in the US basically like to use to wipe their ass on.
I did my entire education on loans (in Canada, lived at home and worked part time but actual tuition and books was paid with loans). 5 years (double major) of mostly full time tutition (last couple semesters when I was just finishing requirements were less) was just right around 30k.
