Agree... my question, though poorly worded, is less about proof of spacetime gradients (they do in the ways you describe).

It's more about understanding what the measurable effects of a gravitational well on earth has on the LIGO experimental setup (or a similar one with infinite precision), in the absence of gravitational waves.
The Mobile Choices You Have to Make
Like the previous post stated, this is likely just because there are many nurses and elementary school teachers. There was no statement that the graph corrected for this.
Yeah, I'm oversimplifying. However, compared to MRI, the JVM starts up quite slowly. Pile on JRuby et al and you end up with an even slower time to go. I think the JRuby people have been very focused on feature parity, interop, and bug fixes so I'm not sure they've prioritized startup time. For now, I'm happy with that, I don't restart my app that often, basically only on deploys.
For what it's worth, I scan all of those documents you mentioned. The only originals I have in my fire chest are: the deed to my house (even though I can get a certified copy from the county), birth certificates, immigration paperwork, vehicle title, passports, and irreplaceable documents of sentimental or practical value. Even these are scanned as a backup.

All other items are either delivered electronically, like bills, or scanned and shredded upon arrival, like insurance policies. (Sometimes I take a picture of manual covers or packaging so I can have part and serial numbers.) I keep copies of the files in various encrypted places, including a USB stick that goes with me.
Seems like the issue is... issues. Some projects get so popular that it's a full time job just to respond to issues that lack information.

I've been in software for a long time. There's no tool that solves this problem. People who don't know your software don't know how to report issues. They don't know the keywords or nomenclature to search for pre-existing error messages either.

Switching to another tool won't solve this problem they're having. Typical engineers - they think issue templates will help. No. I'll just fill in whatever gets me past the validation cos I'm frustrated.

This might be unpopular, but you're under no obligation to answer those issues or even have a public issue tracker at all. Turn the issue tracker off if it's frustrating, and use a private issue tracker for the core team. Or find some students that want to break into open source and have them be 1st level triage for your issues. It's a people problem, not a technology problem.

Too many developers forget that software development, even open-source, is 20% code and 80% people. Documentation and support are a huge part of software. And software only goes so far to solving that in my experience.

This is a very strange view of the war. The Haber-Bosch process was invented before 35 years before WWII even started, and had been a staple of food and weapons production by the time the previous World War had finished. Far from helping the Nazis Fritz Haber died well before they even took power in Germany. Also Carl Bosch didn't Germany overcome imminent defeat, he was an anti-nazi who died in obscurity very early in the war.

Personally I don't think you can sum up World War 2 as anyone's war. It spanned 6 years, 4 continents and engaged every area of science, politics and economics.

My problem with it is that citizens are supposed to be equal under the law. There isn't equal access to these incentives. Doesn't an educated professional moving to Nevada also bring positive externalities to the state? Yet they will never be able to negotiate incentives like these due to the great disparity in bargaining power.

I am against special carve-outs, subsidies, and other manipulations of the tax code in general for the same reason.
If the provider decides to shut down or no longer renews the licence for a piece of content then the content will disappear. Torrents on the other hand only require that at least one seeder has to actively seed the content. Soundcloud has to host the initial seeder anyway which means that they are in practice not worse for longevity than a central file server as long as soundcloud continues business.

Hey, it's the same argument that one makes against the death penalty, but the public at large still doesn't care and they want the guilty to be punished even if it means false positives.
I was referring to that, with Scala, I like to avoid leaking the innards of a JSON serialization library in the code for an API client, instead returning domain objects. Whereas with, JS or Python, the initial approach is to sling around the blob of JSON.
I've got the rough equivalent: a couple nosy retired neighbors, who email the neighborhood mailing list every time they see a truck roll down the street they don't recognize. They don't get harassed by law enforcement, in fact, they're on great terms.

The increasing omniscience of your neighbors brings society back from a relatively short period of anonymity. In a small town, a single officer off the main road knew everyone's comings and goings. This did lead to a lot of abuse, and I'm glad that we're beyond the worst of sheriff as bully. But the answer to increasing observational powers isn't going to be in forcing law enforcement to be crippled, it's going to be in better open access and transparency on what and who they are targeting.

It does seem a bit weird to lump people like me who remember the Challenger disaster and their first world map without the USSR together with people who have never experienced pre-Columbine school environments. That's not really the article's point, though.

The point is that which cultural touchstones one remembers doesn't even predict the sort of thing that's typically attributed to "generations," at least not until you control for other socioeconomic factors.
On the side of photographers' rights:

You're talking about placing a EULA on receiving visible light. That the photons have interacted with your person doesn't make them yours. Trying to tell people what they can and can't do with incoming visible light in a public place is an egregious breach of their freedom.

You simply do not have the authority (morally or practically) to control what happens to other people's observations about you in public spaces. It's not your data, it's theirs. Reaching into people's sensory systems and making rules about what can't get written down or shared is a disgustingly Orwellian violation of their autonomy of thought and freedom of speech.

You have a right to privacy in your enclosed property, over your secure communication channels, etc. When you can be seen from a public place, you simply don't.

On the belief that pervasive surveillance is a societal problem, it might be reasonable to restrict the state from using its property/infrastructure for surveillance camera positions, or to prevent the police from using such a system to go trawling for targets to investigate.

But you absolutely cannot bar a private individual from having cameras on his person/property/car or place restrictions on how he shares that data.

Anti-stalking laws tend to require that the stalker be actively threatening in some way. Passive observation isn't generally enough to do it.
This would be true in a static universe, but, during the 1.2 billion years the waves have been traveling, the universe was experiencing accelerating expansion.

For example, the edge of the observable universe is about 46.5 lightyears away, while the universe is thought to be 13.8 billion years.

> Shouldn't states be able to compete among themselves, in a free market fashion, in order to attract business development that is likely to pay huge dividends over the long term?

That sounds perfect except we are talking about governments that are supposed to represent all of the people and not just selected interests. This is a judgement by government picking a winner.

I dearly wish it was illegal for local or state governments to give any tax deals for specific companies or organizations.
Don't bother, it only gets worse. The level of misogyny and sexism in this thread is way beyond what I expect from HN. What happened to professionalism and treating others with respect, guys? When our female colleagues complain about sexism in tech, stuff like this is (part of) what they're complaining about.

Even with just two LIGO locations, they were able to give a very rough estimate of the source location during the livestream this morning. (It was somewhere kinda in the direction of the Magellanic clouds. Probably.) Once advanced VIRGO comes online (later this year?) we'll have three, which will significantly improve directional accuracy for much of the sky. And when KAGRA turns on in Japan sometime around 2018, we'll have four. During the livestream this morning, someone said that would lead to source locations accurate to within 5-10 degrees on the sky.
Depending on the definition of dancer, this could be less surprising.

Mystical Experiences Open a 'Door of Perception' in the Brain
There is a de facto conspiring oligopoly preventing publication of certain political views, which Correia knows about and mentioned in his post because he's experienced it firsthand. It's not a direct conspiracy, to be sure, but it's a de facto conspiracy because the publishing executives are all part of the same culture and have the same views.

What you're engaging in is part of the second way Correia predicted that Cole would be attacked and dismissed, namely, by quibbling over the exact definitions of "censorship" and "banned." Oh, and we have Cole's own words about why the publisher rejected the book. The publisher yanked the book of the schedule, without even asking first if Cole would revise the point that they found unacceptable.
How so? We have an skilled support team (including engineers) working with customers everyday which is what we think of as our primary human connection.

" On 14 September 2015, while Drago was on the phone with a LIGO colleague in Italy, his pipeline sent him an email alert—of which he receives about one each day—telling him that both LIGO detectors had registered an “event” (a nonroutine reading) 3 minutes earlier, at 11:50:45 a.m. local time. It was a big one. “The signal-to-noise ratio was quite high—24 as opposed to [the more typical] 10,” he says."
Where can I find out more about how thermal effects in the LIGO optics are controlled for?

Basically, I want to understand how it's possible to measure a distance change on the femtometer scale.

Was it running out of memory because of templates? For instance, parts of boost like boost serialization generates an obscene amount of symbols due to the way they do metaprogramming.
I think company-negotiated deals with states should be outlawed. It distorts competition (small companies can't get them) and is a 'race to the bottom' of sorts (with states as a collective losing).

That said, I wouldn't call it a gamble. Almost all of it is tied to performance/output, so there is little risk for the state.
This is important. I had several interviews with some Singaporean companies and salary was always the limiting factor. It was absolutely nowhere close to what similar positions would pay in major US cities, let alone New York or SF. Yet cost of living in Singapore is fairly high. While there are some tax advantages, you also have to weigh the risks of such a long-distance relocation and visa issues, as well as the significant cultural differences that you have to embrace to live functionally in Singapore. If anything, it ought to require a significant salary premium to attract talented engineers to bear some of these risks to relocate to Singapore.

One of my specific experiences was with Standard Chartered, since they are one of the largest commercial users of Haskell and have a large Haskell engineering presence in Singapore. Boy, that was disappointing. Basically they think they can use the fact that you get to work with Haskell (even though it is line of business bank software and involves a poorly built custom Haskell compiler) and that it's located in Singapore as means to reduce salary when they import a worker.

If it's that bad with a wealthy investment bank, it's hard to believe it's reached a healthy salary situation there across the engineering spectrum. But I am sure there are the occasional gems there which do offer fair wage for the risks being taken by employees.
Are you suggesting we legislate which thoughts and observations people are and aren't permitted to record and share?
Might be related to how inflated the praise for higher degrees is. I mean, I know a JD or medical degree is no small feat, but it doesn't mean you're suddenly only good enough for the best of the best or are in some privileged genius tier (that goes for men and women).
Correia has also made a good deal of money off his books (unsurprising, since "GET PAID" is part of his core mission statement as a writer). Apparently, he's such a poor writer that people are attempting to drown him in dollars in an attempt to make him stop. ;-)

Google wouldn't do anything interesting like that if they bought Pandora. The first thing they would do would be to require a Google+ account to use it, which everyone would hate. Then they would keep changing the UI and the name over and over until no one knew it even existed or what it was called anymore, and then finally they would shut it down.
Your probably right, I just really hate talking about group beliefs in terms of anything but the group believing it. Stretching it to a general trend strikes me as wrong. Broken abstraction applied to the real world?
The difference between free and essentially free does become significant when you consolidate all of those essentiallies in one place. I couldn't find how much they spend on the distribution infrastructure itself, but if their 250 million monthly users were to bring in an average of 2-3 cents per month, they would net a profit, even after all the legal and administrative expenses on top of the actual cost of distribution.

I'm kind of baffled that SoundCloud isn't already raking in profits. Presumably their stakeholders simply haven't pushed for profitability yet.
Gravitational waves are a prediction of classical linearlized gravity - gravitational waves are to (classical) gravitons what light waves are to photons.
So disappointed. Was looking for the connection that shows who super models marry, so that I may plan my career like wise.
Gems I use fall into three categories.

A lot of my projects are just wrappers around one main gem. Rails, Nokogiri, Roo, API wrapper gems. These are 'project gems'. If they give me problems, I'll re-evaluate the scope of the project and perhaps pick another gem to orient the project around. Once the project reaches maturity, I'll default to fixing the problem rather than re-engineering it unless the problems run deep.

Sometimes I'll use gems like Phoner to handle datatypes that are too tricky to do with regular Ruby. I'll call these 'utility gems'. When I include a utility gem, generally it has one job and one job only, it's invoked in exactly one place in the code and gets included in that file. I can generally replace a utility gem with stdlib Ruby code if I really need to.

I also have what I call 'infrastructure gems'. These are gems like pry, capistrano, and thor that I tend to include in every project where it seems they would be useful. These are gems that are worth getting to know very well because they solve really hard problems that you don't want to use stdlib for. If these give me problems I will do whatever I need to to resolve them and understand why the problem exists, because the costs of migrating off of them would be steep.

The decision to use a gem should not be taken too lightly, but nor should it weigh large on the mind. Be quick to try it out, but also quick to take it out.
Skepticism is healthy most of the time.

In this case I don't know if your skepticism is warranted.

1st: Paper said that the waves are redshifted to a certain degree (it's in the abstract) [1], ergo 1.3 billion light-years away in space-time. I'm not thinking you want to be so fundamentally skeptical.

2nd: It's in Wikipedia now https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_black_hole#Observation so it's pretty much fact.

You may choose to believe 1st or 2nd piece of evidence.
