Ha, maybe you'd like to include the very next line from the wiki article:

"UN observers noted that they observed bodies near doorways, and bullet marks on the doors of demolished houses, and later concluded that residents may have been forced to stay in their homes due to heavy fire.[10]"

I get that Israel has their own narrative of events when it comes to Qibya, but if you would read the article, you'd see that it wasn't an isolated instance but the end result of several months of punitive raids by the IDF and civilians with the specific goal of targeting civillians. And yes those orders came from the top of the government: "Defense Minister Pinhas Lavon gave the order, in coordination with Prime Minister David Ben-Gurion." The international consensus on what happened in Qibya is pretty clear.

"Over the year leading up to the raid, Israeli forces and civilians had conducted many punitive expeditions, causing destruction of infrastructure and crops and many civilian casualties against Palestinian villages, with Latrun, Falameh, Rantis, Qalqiliya, Khirbet al-Deir, Khirbet Rasm Nofal, Khirbet Beit Emin, Qatanna, Wadi Fukin, Idhna, and Surif being the most notable examples"

MEK and Israel can deny involvement all they want, and you're correct there's no way to prove what actually happened, but the US intelligence services seem pretty damn convinced: http://www.theatlantic.com/international/archive/2012/02/isr... And by they way, one of the scientists was gunned down while driving home with his wife and kid after picking them up from school. That doesn't seem like trying to minimize civilian casualties to me.

MEK is funded by Israel with the sole goal of destroying Iran. Maybe if there was no threat to the existence of Iran they wouldn't have needed to pursue a nuclear program.

You're right the NPT not violating it since they didn't sign it, doesn't mean that there's not a double standard in the way we treat Israel's nuclear program. It's pretty inarguable the Israel has specifically targeted innocent civilians and funded terrorist groups, both of which you gave as reasons as why Israel should be allowed to have a nuclear program without that same sort of scrutiny it's neighbours undergo.
It's not about connectors. Tesla ships adapters for the major connector standards (j1772 and chademo), and presumably will also do so for future standards. What it's about is supercharging, which is very customized to battery pack design and electric gear.

The one pictured has "concept" written on it, did this ever go into production ?
This happened with node-inspector for a while: StrongLoop became the official sponsor, and basic stuff like 'var x = 1; console.log(x)' returning undefined was left unfixed for years while the company simultaneously used it as advertising for how great their node contributions were.
Most articles go out of the way to have some boilerplate agreeing with what you just said ("of course there are perfectly legitimate uses" etc), but the fact remains that property bought in this fashion has caused enormous money laundering issues. I wouldn't call the recent articles on this hysterical at all. Furthermore this is requiring confidential reporting to the US financial intelligence unit, not public reporting.
its not as hard to determine if we are in a bubble as people try to imply. Perhaps its hard to admit we are in a bubble, and even harder to know when said bubble will pop.

you can read the comments above and think you were back in 1999.

To me, we are not in a bubble, we are in THE bubble. The early signs with retail sales starting to flag aren't enough information to say when it will pop. Auto sales continue to be strong, I think as long as that continues things will continue to chop along.

This bubble should be interesting, I cant think of one in previous history happening with so much cash sitting around.

Their downfall was pride: they were so proud of their intelligence and competence that senility and incompetence seemed to them worse than death (I wonder if they would have supported killing the young mentally deficient as well, but that's a different subject).

But I've had relatives who were senile and incompetent, and it's not actually bad, when one is surrounded by family and friends. We were all born dumb and helpless, and many of us die that way. A senile, frail old man is no more worthless than is an infant. Sure, he won't ever grow out of his state (as an infant will), but he once was otherwise and has hopefully earned some love and respect.

There are worse things than helplessness. I think hubris is one of them.
19 lessons I learned during my first year as a Product Manager
It seems like every consumer and industrial robotics company, with the exception of the drone makers, tends to run into trouble sooner rather than later - and it turns out being a division of Google doesn't help that much.

Rethink Robotics for example had a great start, but soon ran into cultural issues and weaker than expected sales. iRobot has been unable to escape the vacuum cleaner market. KUKA and the other really big industrial robot manufactures have started doing new things with sensor-enabled manipulators, but the customers haven't exactly flocked.

What is it about robotics that seems to run these companies off the rails? I worry about Fetch robotics hitting a similar barrier, despite having a pretty clear business case.
These are not useful chargers for long-distance travel. They are barely above a 230V/15A outlet, and pretty much only useful for top-up charging at destinations. And guess what, Tesla has adapters for all of these. As I said, they have won this already.
Censys (https://www.censys.io/) is also from them and it's a search frontend for a quick lookup in their data. It can come in real handy.

Software can only be done if the environment it runs in remains static. Any software dealing with the web can never be done as the environment it runs in is constantly evolving.
Here's some history, from what I've read. The original discussion of the transfer of the Express repo's ownership to Strongloop occurred here in June 2014:

https://github.com/strongloop/express/issues/2264

Back then, many in the community were surprised by the sponsorship (sale?) of the project and called for the repo to be transferred to the Expressjs org instead. So the question of ownership has been a long-running issue.

Now the ownership/involvement seems to have passed from Strongloop to their acquirer IBM. We're just seeing Doug/the community reprise the same issue with the new owners.

Doug (and presumably other third-party contributors) naturally won't want to be the main contributors to a project owned by a company, so the IBM guys will probably have to take over development & maintenance no matter what. (Barring them giving the project back to the organisation.) Chance of a fork too.

I guess a shared governance model is needed here, to get all parties aligned again.
Pull an io.js, fork it and publicize the fork as the maintain version for active contributors and then if IBM/Strongloop step up you can re-merge in.

I do think there is increased competition though as well from other frameworks.
I think the limit of 512^H^H^H2048 start menu items that can be searched is more ridiculous, not sure if they fully fixed that yet. All too easy to hit with programs that install a dozen entries.
The society as a whole is not, but in specific areas the most dystopic visions came true. Not overall, but in a few specific areas.
Not true.

There are use cases where OpenOffice is a vastly better tool for the task at hand. For instance, reading a CSV file that happens to use extended UTF-8 characters with some fields that have important preceding zeroes. In these situations it is possible to import the data into OpenOffice without the prospect of it being mangled by 'clippy'. Sure you can create a new spreadsheet and import a CSV file from disk into it with the data read as 'just text' in UTF-8 but the people I send CSV files to do not do that with their Microsoft ways. Consequently you get so far in and realise you actually need to re-read the source data because it has been Microsofted with bizarre things like capitalisation.

Excel obfuscates data and obfuscates filenames. It also promotes arcane ways of working, e.g. vlookup things held together with blu-tak and string when a simple table join on the original data does what is required correctly with no hand-crafted nonsense.

Too often I see things being solved in Excel where a small bit of code does a better job of creating the report or things like Fusion Tables do a better job of fancy presentation.

I no longer lock in to Excel world, I don't see it as a professional tool.
This article literally states there is not two sides of every debate. This is typical BBC propaganda if I have ever read it. To be honest, we all know smokers who have lived past 80 and in to their 90s. The mystery of smokers who live long is astounding to me, but how dare I speak a lie of such dark deceit on the inter webs?

I am smoking a pack a day, loving life, this article and everyone who believes smoking is bad is an idiot. You didn't do your own research, you just believed whatever the fuck they told you.
Your comment clearly assumes they have lost something by taking the action they did. Can you articulate what it is you think they lost?
A lot of smart people have lost money on the belief that trends that seem unsustainable must reverse or that history must always repeat, when there are factors that can cause wildly diverging outcomes even when there are many similarities between the past and present. You can have a situation where the past matches the present with 99% accuracy, but that 1% makes a huge difference in outcomes. This is related to chaos theory, where small perturbations in the initial conditions can cause the evolution of the system to change dramatically. Many people lost money shorting Amazon and Facebook stock between 2012-2015 on the belief that we are in another tech bubble, and while there are many similarities between 2000 and now (such as high stock prices) there are some subtle differences, too, such as better fundamentals. And those subtleties make the difference between a profitable trade and losing your shirt. Or another example, may people got burned betting against the stock market recovery, since 2009, believing that there would be a double dip recession, that there would be a 'Great Depression', or that America would become Japan 2.0, when, in fact, neither happened despite the many similarities. These short-sellers grievously underestimated the propensity of the consumer, undaunted by the doom and gloom in the news, to keep consuming and the unimpeded ability of S&P 500 companies to keep generating record profits and earnings.
Actually the main dev, dougwilson, finishes his post with this:

"I continue to work in community-owned organizations on GitHub, and if Express were to ever join a community org like "expressjs", I may be back."

Yikes.
Personally the biggest productivity win was to

a) more regularly do some fun sport (bouldering for me). Not doing any conscious work related thinking a couple times a week helps to be effective, being healthier as well.

b) Separate private and work (including technical hobbies) helps me a lot. It's something I struggle doing well, because I like working lots. But everytime I let things slip more than a few days I do notice getting less productive. That does include taking holidays often enough, best without a computer and a phone.

c) Managing interruptions. I.e. try to keep meetings to a specific time of the day, with most of the rest being uninterrupted. Personally I put them in the evening because I collaborate with west coast people, from Europe. Don't read emails while working on other things, instead process them when you're interrupted anyways; in the morning, after lunch, before stopping the day.

d) Try to keep a significant portion of your work day on fun stuff.

I know, thats not technical. But I think a lot of us are prone to overestimating the effect minor tooling differences have, and underestimate the rest.
OK, so I meant "best" in the sense of likely to become widely accepted, at least online. Do any VPN services or VPS hosters accept Dogecoin?
No, looking around me, the Nissan dealers and the highway rest stops have DC quick chargers (480V L3), which are the equivalent of Tesla's superchargers.
That's not universally true, my wife's Cadillac interior is way nicer looking than my BMW interior. That said, I agree that economy and midsized cars could use design improvements. Mazda does a great job at providing nice interiors at a lower price point.
Yes, we're pushing the notification to a new tab (which can't be blocked or interfered with) once it goes through QA -- likely early next week.

Also even multifactor now must be new location verified so the ability to exploit this is now extremely low. Any attempt utilize those credentials will be blocked an email will be generated just like what happened in the non-multifactor case.

Hopefully you've gained enough attention for the chrome issue: https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=453093 to be implemented sooner rather than later, if you could do me a favor and follow it to keep the pressure on Google to help mitigate phishing risk we'd appreciate it.
On Windows, the usual solution if you can't get source or someone else won't fix it (sometimes even if you can, because figuring out how to set up a build environment to recompile everything is a hassle when you could just change a byte or two... especially if you're not necessarily going to "develop" any further) is to patch the binary. Maybe this is why I find RE tools on Windows have been far better than with Linux or other Unix-like environments.

Or even more frustratingly, you have the driver source and the fix is very simple but you can't actually use or redistribute it because you're not up for the five grand and six months it takes to get a certificate for code signing.

There are easy solutions to getting unsigned drivers working. I do notice that the Windows and Linux community attitudes toward this are different though --- the latter seems to be "no source, can't do anything" while the former is more like "no source, we'll still fix it". We're not all as helpless and controlled by Microsoft as you may think. ;-)

(I'm someone who recently patched a driver for hardware that I had absolutely no familiarity with before. It was literally a 2-byte change after about 3 hours, most of which was spent learning about the device.)
How much did storing the data on S3 cost where you said, "However, the data is on S3" or was it there for such a transient time that it didn't cost much? Bandwidth costs in/out of S3 too?

Edit: Actually I read the S3 parts again, it sounds like the CommonCrawl project pays the S3 costs, I think, since it looks like you're using their domain data?
Here are two of Stallmans' writings addressing "Free" and "Cloud".

> Why Open Source misses the point of Free Software

> When we call software “free,” we mean that it respects the users' essential freedoms: the freedom to run it, to study and change it, and to redistribute copies with or without changes. This is a matter of freedom, not price, so think of “free speech,” not “free beer.”

thanks for checking out, awesome feedback so far!
Please don't flag stuff like this. You're treating HNers like children. Lots of us use frameworks/libraries like Express for major projects, so it's important we see critical project sustainability information like this. And we can figure it out ourselves.

If you don't think it's front-page worthy, then just don't upvote. Flagging is meant for off-topic or spam, which this is clearly not.

Yes, I remember the talk about total cost of ownership. But it's entirely valid in my experience. I wouldn't ever use desktop Linux again outside of a VM. The bottom line is that my experience with Windows is rock solid. It looks good out of the box (metro asside), works out of the box, even supports SLI, gaming, multiple monitors without any fight. Even "dist upgrades" work. I've never had an issue with malware because I know what to do and what not to. And it's so nice that third-party software runs and runs well on Windows. Many companies don't support Linux or only offer a stripped-down product that barely works.
Come March it will be 3 years that Asda (owned by Wal-Mart) also has a network of chargers in the UK I presume elsewhere too. [1]

Bias is a built-in human feature. In fact, all living things are hard-wired to discriminate.

So your "implicit bias" is right. Most of the time we engage in it unconsciously.

Sometimes that "implicit bias shows up as racism, nepotism or some other form of favoritism.

> Doctors don't under-treat black patients' pain because they explicitly dislike black people. They do so due to implicit bias.

No necessarily true. A racist doctor will under-treat black patients simply because he's racist. And note that I'm referring to a racist doctor, because not all white doctors are racist.

>>But the truth is I do not know how else to spend my time.

I am going to make a bold claim here. I hear this very often among people in the west. I here the same among people in India(I'm from India) who come from families who are rich, well supplied with resources. Perhaps its the saturation that a person reaches a point after a person reaches and experiences a sufficient degree of sufficiency.

>>I have a feeling the problem is me.

It is hard to convince your mind to prepare for a grand struggle, challenge or a mission- when none exists. The west(especially US) is already reached the pinnacle of what a developed nation could look like. Schools are free, Country wide road network is nothing like anywhere, Cities with opportunities all over the place, Infrastructure is simply amazing, you can take water out of any tap in the country and it will be clean, you have social security ... the list is endless.

On top of all this if your family is even from lower middle class, you are generally well provided for.

Your mind doesn't identify with any struggle or even acknowledge that one exists. This can for sure cause 'Why am I here' crisis. Like I said I see this same among a lot of friends in India, especially among people from rich families.
The same reason they haven't given everybody "pilot" autonomous cars. Expectations are huge now, everything must be perfect.
That's true. In fact, it seems like cosying up to DoD is the only way for a robotics company to really get anywhere or stay afloat in the long run. This shouldn't be true, yet seems to be. Why?
I agree. What about a robot that simply move clothes from the washer to the dryer? That's a pretty well defined tasks and is basically 50% of the work of doing laundry.
As a Java developer, I have found the source code of well-designed C++ libraries (like libtorrent) actually a pleasure to read. While C libraries need lots of 'macro and typedef' hunting. Doable but a chore.

Unfortunately, the Boost libraries are really arcane - template magic that gives me a headache. So, I guess I fall into 'incompetent C++ developer', but that is not a surprise as it hasn't been my working language for some years now.
They said they have a contract with GM, so I suspect LG needs to meet production for the entire duration of this generation Bolt plus a certain number of years afterwards for service parts. I've worked in Automotive supply and this is how it typically works.

In 'serious academic' robotics, if you only have one hokuyo urg lidar [1] and one xsens mems imu [2] you're on a low budget project and you'll probably need a bunch more sensors before your product can operate reliably unattended. But you've already spent ten times the cost of an entry level roomba.

The kind of butler robot we can make today [3] would seem extremely expensive for the functionality it could offer, making it hard get the sales needed to recoup your up front engineering costs - let alone to achieve the economies of scale needed to bring down the price on those sensors.

'sort | uniq' is another special case of this, and it is much better to replace that with 'sort -u'

the 'sort' in 'sort | uniq' doesn't know you are going to be throwing away all the duplicate data.

If anyone is wondering, here is an implementation of the python approach i have lying around:

#!/usr/bin/env python2
import sys
from collections import defaultdict

c = defaultdict(int)

for line in sys.stdin:
c[line] += 1

top = sorted(c.items(), key=lambda (k,v): v)
for k, v in top:
print v, k,
There is also having pulls accepted on open source, e.g. fixing bugs in various libraries and so on - one doesn't need to start a whole OSS project from scratch to contribute.
You're comparing 80% of 80 miles and 80% of 260 miles, and saying that they're equivalent? One is more than 3X faster than the other. One makes it somewhat reasonable to drive long distances, the other does not.

BTW, Tesla sells an adapter for Chademo.

Savioke and Fetch have it right. Solve small problems before moving on to bigger ones. The other robotics companies are simply realizing that now.
