This was flagged when I first seen it but I'm not sure why. Paris traceroute is a "variant" of the traceroute utility and the one that I, personally, use most often (I'm a network engineer at an ISP, so I run a lot of traceroutes both manually and scripted).
Your comment gave us a lot of food for thought, so thank you. But the truth is we’re a very traditional family and this is our first child. We are trying hard to make the right choices for her.

So although your suggested milestones are most reasonable, we’re ultimately going to stick with analog for the time being. I’m saying this fully aware that she might not be able to lift her creations the better she gets, but we all have slight scoliosis from carrying too many school books. She will survive.

Once she’s comfortable with the basics and hopefully frustrated with the limitations, she’s going to be ready to embrace digital.
Not coming from active c/cpp development, but learned it at University, I had to deal with autotools just last week. I have to admit I was facing a steep learning curve. All I wanted to do is adjusting some build parameters of an existing OS project (like adding compiler flags etc), which has several sub projects and is also calling non cpp-compilers (mono). Normally I'm an extremely fast learner, but this gave me something to chew on a few hours. I was frustrated and gave up when I accomplished 85% of what I originally wanted to achieve (because time didn't permit to spend more on this). I don't mean to say these tools are hard to comprehend/master in general, but for folks like me coming from other software ecosystems it seems it's a tough bit. At least it was for me :)

The thing I don't get about Indian politics is this : given what has happened to the Hindu majority in Pakistan and the Hindu minority in Bangladesh [1] [2] [3].

Given that, how can you possibly defend that muslims in India are anything but a clear and present danger to both national security itself (ie. the democracy, but generally all state institutions and Indian territory), but more importantly, to the very lives of a majority of Indians ? (judging by what happened in Pakistan and Bangladesh, even to a very significant fraction of their own lives)

Note that you might say that those were rebels, specific leaders, but accounts of the various massacres say differently, and all say roughly the same thing: it was ordinary muslims, neighbors, friends, villagers, who suddenly started massacring everyone. It wasn't armies, it was certainly not an organised military force, it was ordinary muslims (this is the same thing being reported from the isis/daesh areas in Iraq and Syria however).

And whilst I don't mean to say Hindus never commit violence upon muslims, far from it (even increased recently), the scale of it just doesn't compare. No massacres (plenty of events that were fights between mobs being reported as massacres on muslims, especially in Western press, but nothing that anyone can reasonably consider a massacre : people going to houses and executing whoever they find inside). If you say 100 million Hindus were killed or forcibly oppressed in the last century in India, that's a conservative figure. You'd never get anywhere near 10 million muslims being affected.

The general population certainly doesn't see things this way, when I find it extremely hard to argue anything else, given recent Indian history. I don't understand why.

Now it gets much more fuzzy, but for the sake of the argument (after all why are we here? ;)) I'm willing to bet that there are lots of data science jobs that could be done well given a good knowledge of how to use deep learning and no understanding of how EM works.

I'm not saying that knowing fundamental (and/or difficult) topics is not useful - it absolutely is! It's just a matter of prioritizing what you learn about. I think if you want to maximize your impact, it makes sense to invest in learning the currently-most-promising tool before going for things with lower reward/effort ratio.
I'm convinced that its wrong to say there is no security in obscurity. It's just one more layer in what should be many, and it has many benefits(simple example: ssh port changing at least reduces alert fatigue so I know when I get a lvl 10 from OSSEC I know I need to dig into it asap!)

Port knocking is great as well.

All of the supposed replacements usually have a better interface but way worse functionality. Even just simple things like setting the installation prefix and finding shared libraries don't work as well or are left out. I do a lot of distro packaging work, and the GNU build system is by far the easiest to deal with.

What the Autotools could benefit greatly from is a new UI. We can all agree that M4 sucks big time.
This looks really cool. It seems like you have a lot of granular control over the elements and layout. That being said, most of the websites I build these days don't need this level of customization. I've found that Blocs[1] is more my tempo. I just really want to organize structure at a high level, add content, polish, and export.

Hi, I wrote the blog post and run IRCCloud.

To clarify, the changes detailed here are to do with IRC as a low level protocol. While these enhancements do have user benefit, many of the user experience improvements we work on aren't necessarily at the protocol level.

For instance, things like file sharing, persistent logging, synced mobile clients, push notifications etc can all be built as extra infrastructure on top of the protocol. In the same way that the Slack protocol doesn't give you file sharing without somewhere to host hose files, IRC as a protocol is less useful without services built around it. And that's the main benefit to using a service like IRCCloud.

However, it's worth noting that an important aspect of the IRCv3 effort is around introducing new data types to the protocol. Things like message tags and metadata, that will enable client developers to offer new features that would be hard or impossible to implement without breaking a lot of the existing ecosystem around IRC. And it's the existing open communities on IRC that represent a major advantage over closed proprietary chat systems.

Some examples of things that could be achieved with these new data types and mechanisms:

* If you wanted to add avatars, there isn't a standard place to put it that all clients will know how to access. A metadata key enables that.

* A bot that supports some form of rich payload, e.g. a quoted snippet from a linked website, with a favicon and preview image. You could provide this with message tags.

There are also interesting opportunities with the -notify capabilities. Being able to receive status updates (e.g. if someone goes away or identifies) lets clients present useful presence indicators for people you're chatting with.

I can imagine these being combined in interesting ways. For example, label a message with an id tag and then receive fave-notify messages for it, to allow a "starring" feature.

For IRC to be a competitor to modern chat alternatives it needs a combination of these improved protocol features as well as a support infrastructure.
I can confirm that I can't reach any of those articles from Sweden, where I live. But these news are in no way being suppressed, most in Sweden knows of the social worker who was killed. And media frequently discuss the conditions in these migrant centers. It also appears that not all articles are blocked, I can for example reach http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3416343/Sweden-asylu... from Sweden.

Still, this is both strange and unsettling.
Absolutely - in a climbing stage of le Tour, a racer would just need a few bursts to match the acceleration of the other tops riders as they try to drop the peloton on the steepest sections. 20-30s bursts, 100-200W, would be more than enough to stay in the race.

In something like cyclocross, the difference from a frame motor would probably be even bigger. The races are shorter (60 minutes vs 4-6 hours) and the power bursts are short and intense - power through a mud pit, stay on bike instead of running a super steep hill, etc.

I disagree. It's the same. Its just that too many people expect more of the reward, for less of the work and never realized just how much work it actually took to achieve these rewards in the first place.

I see it all the time with people trying to start businesses. They see the success stories and want a rich and profitable company in less than a year.

I believe it's the result of perceived instant gratification on the Internet and from the idea that started in the early 90s that 'everyone needs a trophy', which I saw first-hand.

I’ve met so many college graduates that either want a six-figure income right out of school, a management position within 6 months, or a flex schedule at every job. It's not just a want, they feel entitled to it.

Yes, I am just starting something small and new. And am now jumping the cliff of learning C, gcc, make, autotools, and gnulib-tool, of course all at the same time. Talking about a heap overflow ;)

Is it correct that CMake is a replacement for GNU Make? So far, GNU Make has not posed a problem. Can CMake assume some roles of the other tools as well? I am looking to have this interesting ride a little less bumpy.

Sometimes I think that the world is turning to animism again.

Green parts of the plants do not growth normally[1] towards the dark. When a bud points in the bad direction do not survive for a long time, is killed either by the shadow of its "buddy" or by substances that its 'friendly neighbour tree' releases.

A tree is like a coral in many aspects. Each branch in a tree acts as the member of a colonial superstructure. Some survive and other don't. This is known in ecology since decades. And, like corals engaged in warfare, they "auto-prune" itselves. To explain this case as "they are friends of this other tree or this concrete wall" is just silly

This is just advertising trying to sell a book.

[1] There are some special cases of plants searching the darkest places, like in peanuts or pennywort burying itselves for example. Roots aren't green and are a different case of course.
At a high level, because it would have been directly counterproductive; at a low level, because her cover as an attaché of the US embassy came with diplomatic immunity. This doesn't leave the host country totally unable to respond in the case where a foreign intelligence officer is detected, but it does strictly limit the scope of such response; in practice, the most they can do, and from the sound of it what they did in this case, is declare the offender persona non grata, and put her on the next jet out of Sheremetyevo.

Of course, there's nothing that says the host country can't put a captured foreign intelligence officer in prison, or even execute such a person outright, beyond a simple reciprocal convention that such things aren't done. The reason why that generally doesn't happen is the same reason why civilized nations rarely visit atrocities on prisoners of war: a country which unilaterally abrogates such a convention risks having its own personnel treated just as badly.

In the case of espionage, there's the further, and major, consideration that any abrogation of diplomatic immunity risks a general breakdown of diplomatic relations, a state of affairs which between civilized nations generally presages the outbreak of warfare. Aside perhaps from a few madmen who never approached real power, no one on either side of the Cold War ever wanted it to turn hot, and the entire edifice of Cold War-era espionage existed precisely to help prevent that misfortune from ever coming to pass. Imprisoning foreign intelligence officers would, therefore, have been actively detrimental to the purposes of the nations which might have done so.
Setting compiler flags with autoconf should be simple:

I think IRC won't support offline messages as it somehow conflicts with the whole protocol. You can achieve this with your own setup via ZNC, but then you need a server running 24x7.

IRC will hopefully stay as the preferred option for technical discussions, but we will need something else for personal communication (with increased privacy too).

We have XMPP, which is complex, lacking and has too much client fragmentation. And emerging things such as Signal, Tox, Ring or Matrix.

It's a challenge to implement offline messages and P2P. Even server federation is not easy if you want really nice crypto. E.g., see Signal.

Encryption isn't just about keeping secrets. When correctly deployed it also prevents tampering; when your comms are insecure, it's quite easy for a MITM to inject or remove content.

This is not hypothetical, although most of the large-scale attacks of this nature have focused on the web. What sort of havoc can someone cause in your organization by injecting fake chat messages? :-)
That's the frustrating thing, other python libraries worked fine. That one must have been doing something weird.
CMake does not take the place of GNU Make. It just generates your makefiles (or project files) for you. It handles all the hard parts, you just tell it what the files, libraries, and options you want are and it generates everything for you.

Here is an example project using CMake that is targeted for a MSP430 https://github.com/mpiannucci/HelloMSP430
As a web app, it's actually a lot easier to make modifications than desktop software, without needing an unwieldy encyclopaedia of settings checkboxes.

For things that are common requests, we work on adding appropriate settings, but it's impossible to give everyone exactly what they want, so custom user stylesheets and scripts are generally the answer.

Check out https://userstyles.org/styles/browse/irccloud for some examples, have a look on our wiki: https://github.com/irccloud/irccloud-tools/wiki or join our #themes channel on irc.irccloud.com for info and help on customising the ui.

Often, the best community extensions get integrated into the app, but we're still a small team so it can take time :)
I don't think you should focus too much on that. Indeed, there is a "frontpage express" part, in it, but the app is still super useful should you remove that.

I've been prototyping a lot last year, and it was never straightforward because I have to compose with provided elements to build something looking a minimum like what I wanted.
