I think this site and the amount of hate/doubt I've received is driving me insane. Sorry.
When I had major surgery three years ago, the button to give myself a dose of hydromorphone only worked every 10 minutes. I imagine systems like this are pretty common. When I left the hospital five days later, my prescription wasn't anything nearly so strong—and this was a surgery with a months-long recovery.
Seems like a hundred dollars should have been sufficient. It's a simple lab test. Lead in the water == bad news.
I'm not sure how it can be easier or harder for some languages (to make bindings to C++). C++ is just hard to make bindings to. Even if you do it from C to C++.
So does this mean you could write a QT application in Go on Linux and cross compile the whole mess for Windows?
No free to play game makes money if it is not fun.

Free to play cannot rely on promises of classical marketing.

Hence, the game needs to be fun or people stop paying.

Google search: how effective is a condom

Result:
When used consistently and correctly, condoms are 98% effective in preventing pregnancy and are the only form of birth control that also can prevent STIs.3,7,8 This is why it's important to follow directions for correct use.

Somebody is lying.
Until/unless we can find and implement a workable way to make this a problem Amazon is financially on-the-hook for, instead of Amazon (et al) customers.

I wonder what the PCI implications are if it's true that Amazon gave away his last four cc digits over the phone?

I wonder if there are applicable PII laws in his jurisdiction that'd have Amazon able to be held liable for disclosing his address? (I think there are here in Australia(1), but that doesn't mean regular Amazon customers have any chance of prevailing in court against Amazon's in-house legal team...)

(1) 6.67 of this says your address is "individually identifying data": http://www.alrc.gov.au/publications/6.%20The%20Privacy%20Act...
I have gotten responses for the 5 bugs I've reported.
Hammers and screwdrivers still require quite a bit of thought and planning. IMO, the tools of the "real computer revolution" won't be done until they're at least as effortless as the Star Trek holodeck ("computer, give me a table here, made out of metal").
So in other words, crappy wifi?
I think for Scala and Clojure it does not make sense to equalize the languages with a single concurrency model, as they both build on the JVM and provide several libraries and approaches to concurrency. Scala has quite a lot of different actor implementations (std library, scalaz, akka, etc.), clojure has multiple ways (Atoms, Agents, STM, core.async) and you could even use plain java threads with mutexes or lockless data structures or green threads with Quasar/Pulsar on both.

Erlang makes it at least easier to choose a way to solve the problem, because it does not give you that much possibilities :) Erlang concurrency is probably a mix between Scala/Akka actors (unbounded queues, you send things to actors/processes, not to mailboxes) and clojure core.async (you can block inside the actor process).

The 7 concurrency models in 7 weeks book talks about all of those a little bit in case you are more interested in this topic.
Sex isn't just a biological impulse. Many couples feel that it's important to their bond. One might respond more reductively with "why does the biological need for oxytocin to maintain intimacy get a pass" or somesuch, but the fact is that sex is never something that our evolution needed to control or limit. Having some sex is absolutely necessary for the species to survive. You're comparing that with maladaptive behaviors, whereas it's the exact opposite. You might as well expect people not to eat at all.
I mean, theoretically, yes, if you're masochistic, but why wouldn't you just compile on Windows? This set of bindings even supports Windows: https://github.com/visualfc/goqt#system
> If you seriously look at the Erlang syntax you will find it is very simple, concise and consistent

You're serious and I'm not, gotcha. This adversarial attitude you assume, isn't helping. Work on that first.

> I know and have used about 9-10 so far so what is really the problem?

The problem is that you think it's trivial and other developers overwhelmingly don't. To be fair, it's only the first barrier to entry. After that you learn the sad state of Erlang data structures and expected language interoperability.
If someone has your public name and address you're already at significant risk if you ever say anything controversial that gets attention. You're liable to being swatted, getting fake pizza orders, having people show up at your house, harassing you and much more. See Zoe Quinn, Brian Krebs, lots of less well known individuals, etc.
Mostly because I don't have access to a copy of Windows to compile on :)
While that's true, and perhaps even needs to be "the default", there really needs to be a way to say "Hey, I'm concerned, and am prepared to take responsibility for my own access credentials. I demand you categorically _do not_ disclose any of my personal information to anyone without a warrant or court order." And for that sort of demand to have appropriate legal teeth to ensure people collecting that data are sufficiently motivated to act properly on it.
Unionization can only enable workers to capture more of the producer surplus; it can't fundamentally reverse a case of extreme oversupply.

For rough numbers, an epically good adjunct union might secure a 50% pay raise. But sane PhD pay rates would have to be something like 2x what they are now for it to be a viable career path for high-IQ white collar professionals. And that requires the supply to (take an economic hint and) contract.
Rust has #[no_mangle] and ffi types. I've done some FFI in Rust, and I've found it to be pretty pleasant. What are the "lot of issues" you're talking about?
Try adding capital stock and transaction costs. The code seems easy enough. See if that changes the outcome of your simulation. My experience is that the broad rich-get-richer dynamics remain the same.
All users want to change as soon as heroin is no longer fun and instead is used to keep from being sick.

Once a habit is developed, a desire to quit will rarely be enough. Help is absolutely necessary.
Whenever I hear of a golang binding to a library implemented in C++ I'm always interested to see how they map the class hierarchy to golang's type model which doesn't have traditional inheritence.

Does QT's class hierarchy map cleanly to Go? Is it just interfaces everywhere?

(I'm not trying to start a language war, just genuinely curious.)
Funny a few days ago I was playing around with OpenEmu and was trying to remember a game I couldn't remember for a long time(Panzer Dragoon). While doing that I found a nice article that talked about how the Saturn was a vastly superior console and how Sega panicked and completely destroyed itself with that specific console. I also remembered the sad story of how I modded my saturn to play panzer dragoon and then left it in my basement when I moved.

A related word of warning: Namecheap updated their registration page last year.

Now, when you register a domain it tells you free Whoisguard is included, but it doesn't make it clear that it's disabled by default."

Previously it just worked. Now you have to check another box to turn it on.

This change makes no sense to me. (If you want free Whoisguard, why would you not want it turned on?)

I was white-hot furious* when I discovered that a handful of new domain regs had leaked my contact details, and I began getting the inevitable spam calls and texts.
Heliocentrism was a religiously-derived belief. There are certainly other examples - for some verses in the bible, there are hundreds of interpretations.
Ostensibly, this is what has propped up PHP. Of course calling those who you can convince to absorb a different syntax as "smart" is just a psychological lock-in strategy, rather than an effective sieve.
The 610 faulting on NV condition codes is part of a journey of that bit of the instruction space from the original "really never executed, ie NOP" in the ARM1 (which just falls out of the implementation) through "this is unpredictable" (where UNDEF is a permitted implementation and helpful for flushing out stray applications relying on the old behaviour) until you get to the ARMv5 architecture, which uses the space for a collection of new instructions (which can't be conditional). A whole sixteenth of the encoding space turns out to be just too precious to waste.
I though this sounded familiar. Here's another article on it from a few weeks ago. Some of you might like the tone a bit better: http://www.marketplace.org/2015/12/10/world/why-cant-china-m...
There are many good points in this article, and I agree about the general gist that adjuncts are not well-served in this situation. That being said, I think that the article sets up an artificial binary between adjuncts and tenured faculty. There is a whole third leg of employment that is contingent full-time teaching. That is to say, one-year professorships, and lecturer/instructor/preceptor positions that employ people full-time, but without assurance of continued employment in the year to come (indeed, often with an explicitly NON-renewable contract). There is a large chunk of academic teaching from faculty who make an okay (not great) income for a year, but have no security for years to come, and are forced to go through an extremely grueling application process year after year (see this article from Slate.com on more about that process: http://www.slate.com/articles/life/education/2014/09/how_do_...).
I'm thinking of scrapping it And (from another comment of yours)

I think this site and the amount of hate/doubt I've received is driving me insane. Sorry.

If you do not have an extremely compelling reason to stick it out, then I suggest you scrap it promptly. Go spend your time on something that doesn't get you hate and make you insane. You should only put up with that if you honestly have absolutely no other choice, no means to walk away.

Once you have been backed into a mental corner of the sort you are in, it is incredibly hard to find a path out. If you are unable to be objective, not take it personally, not get defensive and so on, there is almost no hope that you can figure out how to effectively reposition this site. It will probably go much better to just ditch it and start over and view it as a learning experience.

I considered signing up for your site. I could certainly use more free resources. I also considered posting it to my homeless website. But that runs into the question of conflict of interest. If I want to win, I am better off not sharing it. That only increases the competition. So, perhaps the model of the site is fundamentally broken.
Totally understand that :)

Maybe https://www.appveyor.com/ would work out for you? It's free for OSS projects.

probably because helicopters cost more than $10/minute to operate (r-22's were nz$5/minute more than 10 years ago), and they vibrate a lot.
So for what reason did they?

I think Twitter needs to learn to be okay with its current size, or perhaps even smaller. The core idea is very compelling - a curated feed of short, simple content. The nonsense Twitter has added lately substantially detracts from its core values, and it feels like desperate pleas for unnecessary growth to somehow support the massive payroll they convinced themselves to take on. The Silicon Valley obsession with endless growth is harmful sometimes.

So... what about banks with no actual physical branches?
They don't hide the name because you cannot hide the name while legally owning the domain yourself.

Services that hide the name actually result in a company (e.g. "Domains by Proxy LLC") purchasing and holding domain ownership for you, which is a very different legal arrangement with different risks.

Thanks for clearing it up Sindre—wasn't sure when you got into OSS/when you travel or move around. I also would spend less time on the computer if I was in Southeast Asia :-)
Looks like fun. But I can't help noticing that so far there are exactly two comments here, both very positive: one from someone whose profile says "helping startups get press" and one from someone whose account was created two days ago.

hoag, could you please tell us whether you are receiving any sort of payment for promoting this product? zanewill9, could you please tell us what connection if any you have with the makers of this product?

(For the avoidance of doubt, I think the most likely answers are "no" and "none" respectively, and I am making no accusations. I just think it's worth checking.)
Very cool. I wonder if it is possible for the emulators to understand that mesh sprites are semi-transparent and draw them last in the buffer of interest and blend it on top within that buffer. I suspect these games are so specialized in their effects that this would likely screw things up thogh.

Ask HN: Service/app to track daily events behaviors?
Does anybody have a recommendation for a service or an app (android for me) that allow one to track events or behaviors daily. Possibly creating graphs based on input?

I remember seeing a nice one listed here in HN where you would make an account and then email the service. The service would then create nice graphs and keep logs. It was free and quite nice but after about 4 hours of searching I just can't find it.

> they need to be pumping out lots of little experimental tools for finding, consuming and creating tweets

This existed as a thriving third-party ecosystem, before Twitter dismantled it, http://www.mathewingram.com/work/2015/04/30/twitters-multi-b...

"Last year, Twitter effectively admitted that it needed third-party developers ... For anyone who had worked with Twitter in the past, however, this was a little bit like Fox Inc. asking for chicken volunteers to help it build a new hen-house. As far as I can tell, there’s little or no evidence that Twitter’s outreach program is working. What would Twitter be like today if it had embraced its ecosystem and tried to build on it instead of cutting it off at the knees? ... I think it would have a lot more goodwill to spend — both with developers and with users — than it does now, and I think many aspects of the service that it is now trying to build up, including smart recommendations and curation, would be a lot better off with outside input than they are now."
Banks would never do that, if just because they'd risk losing business in places where there's no local branches. Many of the national banks that offer the best conditions have no presence in a lot of metro areas.

And even if you make sure your bank has a local branches (which really, I've not gone to one in years, why would I need one?), what happens when you are on a trip, and your accounts are frozen? I've had my CCs frozen because the bank considered my expenses during a trip to be potentially fraudulent, but I could clear it up over the phone. Do we have to devolve back to carrying thousands in cash, like in the old days?

Security is always a tradeoff between avoiding fraud and being usable, and the tradeoffs that are great for some people in some situations are unacceptable for others.
Not an expert myself, but I somehow doubt there was only a single study showing the effectiveness of placebos. It's a very common subject and a key component of current scientific testing (control groups).
YC S2016 Batch Applications Are Open
Because the former approach finds things that are obvious enough to have been noted by multiple cultures independently, while the latter approach finds things that seem unlikely enough to be novel -- right?

A social scientist will not become famous as a deep, original thinker by telling people to work hard, be patient, keep a reputation for honesty, and eat their vegetables.
Here's the thing: In a multilevel marketing scheme, even the word of the product users is unreliable. This is because MLMs recruit their end users as a sales and marketing force that works, essentially, for free -- with the promise if big riches if you sell enough in the program.

You know "The Secret" and all that positive thinking Aladdin's genie hogwash? That's actually the public facing side of MLM propaganda. Internally, MLMs pump their customer base up with big promises about how if you think happy thoughts you are guaranteed to fly with the hidden (or even explicit!) threat that even the tiniest sad thought will send you crashing to the ground.

And this extends to what people are allowed to say. The key word is "edify". You're supposed to "edify the product" (talk about how great it is) and "edify your upline" (talk about what a great guy/gal the person who introduced you into the program is). This is often backed up with threats and verbal intimidation and abuse. (e.g., "Only losers say things like that. Losers and quitters. You're not a loser, are you?" and it gets worse from there.)

So for some of the most prevalent scams, objectivity can't even be expected from the end purchasers.
While I see this as true, man does it suck to be an employee who was hoping for stock options to be worth anything. Especially for those who became Twitter employees via an acquisition, since I imagine a big part of their compensation from that event was stock.
Not in my experience. I once helped build a team of Elixir developers. There were few people who knew elixir at the time. That simple filter ended up getting us a really great team-- much better than interviewing a bunch of applicants from with other language backgrounds-- the people who wanted to learn elixir, knew it, or were interested in it, were much better than average.

In fact, that's the only effective filter I've found for interviewing.
This was a fascinating (and daring) experiment. Sad it ended up like this.

"I think the actions of the police are unimpeachable." No, they're not.

Their actions were effective but illegal. Effective in that they forced disclosure of the child's location. Illegal for excessive force, denial of due process, etc. Their illegal behavior weakened the rights all of us depend on.

More broadly, we'd probably convict more criminals if we ditched the legal presumption of innocence and other defendant protections. And of course, it can be heartbreaking and enraging when a palpably guilty defendant escapes justice because of prosecutorial error or other "technicality". Just as those cops were heartbroken and enraged at the arrestee's callous disregard of the child's life. I can imagine how they felt, and I don't know if in their place I'd have had the courage to follow the law.

My point is that the rights we've agreed any of us should have as a defendant in a state criminal action do lead to occasional awful circumstances like those cops faced. I think the more awful the circumstance, the more important it is to uphold those rights. They're fundamentally important, and they're not much use if we only enforce them when it's easy or convenient.
I'm moving towards using Qt at work. My understanding is that nothing major changed with regards to licensing recently. Why do you think it is now more restrictive?
Although it is only a recommendation, ignoring it might be more problematic than it seems right now. Of course, I'm not assuming that majority of Argentinian women would actually make careful review of all the risks, but still. Critically low newborn number for 2 years actually is a big deal. If we assume there won't be many babies in 2017 it means there won't be many 7 year olds in 2024. That probably means financing 2-nd class of elementary school that year is pretty pointless, which means problems if you actually had a healthy newborn child in 2017. That means virtually no need for goods & services targeting some specific age, critical hit for businesses.

On the other hand that means the opposite situation for those born in 2018-year, which also is not normal. (Overpopulated classes some 7 years later, at the very least.)

So, yeah. This year starts pretty crazy.
Original Stepanov's C++ Vector Implementation (1994)
I was simply listing them as non-present basics that even freshman Walras-Cassel equilibrium models might have. I can't just add a homogeneous blob of capital called K because that's subject to capital-theoretic criticisms and isn't how reality works (see Cambridge capital controversies, Ludwig Lachmann and GLS Shackle). I also can't bolt on transaction costs because those are variable and dependent on social institutions or fixed factors, such as property rights and geography.

There's no way I can encode a dynamic disequilibrating market process in this, and it'd be a fool's errand to treat models like this as having to say anything about real-world policy. Capital accumulation is far too dynamic a process to lead to rich-get-richer outcomes, anyway. See Capital and Its Structure (1956).
Hillary and Bill Clinton were the biggest supporters of "tough on crime" in the 1990s. Your premise falls flat accordingly. The Democrats also put huge numbers of people in prison with their participation in the war on drugs.

Bill Clinton's presidency saw the most people added to the prison population of any president in US history. His tough on crime, tough on drugs policies successfully added roughly 650,000+ people to the prison numbers in just eight years. That's a record that is unlikely to ever be topped.
