The thing is that the NSA doesn't kill people. The CIA and DoD run the drone program, and they both do their own due dilligence (how good is another conversation altogether) before carrying out their strikes. Also, most strikes have to be authorized from the top, up to and including the secretary of defense and the president.
Yes, and the ongoing actions of USA (CIA seemly helped some people here get "disappeared").

Until recently, some people here believed that accusing USA of participating in the coup was "tinfoil hat crazy", then CIA recently declassified stuff due to its age, and revealed that USA participation went more than expected (originally people just believed that CIA funded protests, propaganda, and gave intelligence support... the declassified documents showed that CIA did all that, AND US also sent a aircraft carrier + several ships to our coast, and threatened to bomb the loyalist army, this is why when the loyal army and the coup army faced each other near Rio de Janeiro the president suddenly told them to stand down and left the country).

The UK is bringing in a second home tax:

http://uk.reuters.com/article/uk-britain-budget-housing-idUK...

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-scotland-politics-3511...

In the town where I live there are a lot of summer homes that are unoccupied in winter. In London, there are obviously a lot of homes that the rich use when they are visiting. This is an extravagance that is affecting the UK as a whole and a second home tax might help a little. I don't think that the above measures go anywhere near far enough though.
Unfortunately, I don't know the market for English .com domains. What I would try to do is search for the price similar domains have been sold for, similar meaning of similar length and keyword search volume, CPC etc.

For the German market there are some quite active Facebook groups where people sell (mostly German) domains. I befriended one of the bigger guys there and he helped me with an actual number the owner guy would definitely sell for.

Surprise - a central banker[1] wants to have more control over how people use our currency. Summers seems to be discounting the value of large denomination bills as a savings vehicle for ordinary citizens in countries with weak currencies. In addition to improving the life of your average (e.g.) Venezuelan, keeping the US Government associated with financial stability seems to be a cheap and effective way to promote pro-Americanism. My guess would be that the positive value of $100s far outweighs the value of inconveniencing criminals, but if it's the other way around then the proposal might be worth considering.

Not to dissuade you from graphics hacking in CL (it's a lot of fun!) but this isn't what Vulkan is for.

It's a graphics API that gives you more explicit control over synchronization, buffering, and resource sharing. There's still many reasons to prefer OpenGL (for which there are good bindings in CL already and could use more contributors!).

If you're just the curious sort and want to know more then by all means... it will be a tough battle if this is your first delve into graphics programming.

Academia doesn't drive anyone out of the military. It may dissuade some people from joining.

US military culture drives people out.

Either by being surrounded by lazy or coasting individuals who think of the military as just a job (discouraging to more ideologically minded people).

Or by being hammered by the ugly, jingoistic rhetoric and motivations of some peers and leadership.

Or by being too smart and standing too tall, upsetting the boat. The US military, large portions at least, strongly discourage some aspects of intellectualism and, certainly, individualism. Smart people suffer in this environment if they're not power-motivated, and the good ones usually aren't.
I may be wrong on this one, but I'm sure I've read in several articles over the years that encryption is permissible if you host the keys publicly/online somewhere.

Now I know what the immediate response to that is, because it's mine too, but your problem with drive-by, opportunistic eavesdropping is semi-solved if the location of your keys is only known to your logbook and any inspectors who come knocking.

Besides, there may be wiggle-room for allowing encryption on new bands in the future, given that all mobile and most home internet use is over radio now anyway. Exciting times. I'm just about to take my test for the Intermediate license in the UK and this is the direction I want to research. 5G area-wide networks, micropayments, etc.

As a side-note, I hope I live to see a true zero infrastructure meshnet internet, where every house or device has an omnidirectional HF/VHF/UHF antenna to connect to the completely decentralised web, at speed, for all comms. That'd be neat.

Well, what he's done is clever, but perhaps ever so slightly unethical.

If he genuinely just cared about users he could have reported the issue without pushing his product. Mind you, I can't blame him from mentioning his app, it's a great chance for publicity.

He probably didn't know he was going to get so many dodgy reviews/users up-front. Nonetheless, the appropriate thing to do now would be to edit the original post. State that he appreciates that privacy conscious users agree this is an issue and he is glad people have downloaded his app. However, he's after genuine feedback so that he can further improve his app - as such could users please ensure they try his application and only then provide legitimate feedback, either via Google Play reviews or another contact mechanism.

Maybe not a direct successor (as in OpenGL will now be deprecated), but still a defacto successor if all game engines adopt it. The bulk of the low-level work will be done by game engines, and developers won't have to worry too much about it. So developers will get the best of both words: easy to use and higher performance.
It will be interesting to see the adoption rate for games and other applications now that it has been released.

If you have a license, you should know why not - there's just not enough bandwidth for that to be a widespread practice. There's a reason cell companies are paying big bucks for spectrum.

802.11b has a bandwidth of 22 MHz. The entire 2m VHF allocation for amateur radio is 4 MHz. The entire 70cm UHF allocation is 30 MHz, and there's another 26 MHz at 33cm.

Now, with a license you can use much higher output power (up to 1.5 KW depending on the band), including on 2.4 GHz. A high-gain antenna and some power can go quite far. And there's also fast-scan Amateur Television (ATV) and slow-scan television modes that can be used as well.

But if you're using it to watch YouTube you're kind of missing the point of amateur radio - it's about communication, not watching Youtube videos. Things like embedded meshes and other experimental work are fine, but YouTube is really more of a cellphone thing.
I was also surprised about the cropping! For my own photographs I never crop, I don't really see the point. But perhaps he is publishing photos, in which case I understand it.
I think that would be an appropriate edit to make. In the beginning, I think it's fair to have the disclaimer that he has an interest in a competing app. So should he do that without naming the specific app he's working on? That might carefully walk the line.

Thanks! You're right, I should refine the idea a little more. Initially the idea was based around a question: "what are the best pairs of ingredients?" since I couldn't find many resources to answer it. Now it has evolved a bit since then to be more of a site to find recipes based on ingredients. From the comments here it seems like that might be a good route to follow. Really appreciate your brainstorming ideas!
This release is just terrible (on Windows). I don't care about the redesign, that's OK. However:

* Views don't auto-update, so you have to switch between File Status and Log / History to get any of those tabs to refresh.

* Staging files doesn't actually refresh the UI either.

* The diff view is... odd. I'm pretty sure it's showing the wrong lines sometimes.

* The Stage/Discard hunk buttons in the diff view do not have a fixed placement anymore, so they get pushed out in the margin, sometimes several screens to the right with a lot of dead space inbetween.

* The diff view background doesn't meld with the back at all, so you get weird white boxes surrounding your code.

* Constant "'ssh-agent' failed with code -1: System.NullReferenceException" errors.

And that's just after having used it a couple of hours today. I don't even dare check to see if commit or pull works. I've mostly been command-lining it today.

I don't think I've witnessed such a majorly botched update in recent memory.
Can it switch between emacs and vi mode (like Deadline)?
That may be true for simple operations on aligned buffers, and nice regular computation in general. Anything slightly complex will throw off the compiler and result in suboptimal performance in the best case, none or stupid vectorization the worst (and quite common) case.

How do I know? We have some experience with vectorization in the team I work in (www.gromacs.org), our code has support for at about 10-12 SIMD instruction sets ;)
This is obviously just target practice for the military, right?

Long before? Didn't they just adopt Metal on Mac OS mid last year? Surely they knew Vulkan is almost done.

I think they just wanted to see if they can push major game developers to adopt Metal for Mac games early on. If they could do that - awesome for them, and they would never have to adopt Vulkan. If they can't, they'll have to adopt Vulkan.

Here's hoping the latter will happen.
ahh, yeah i hear you. I just never got into it and I understood the Vulkan announcement to be the latest edition to what OpenGL already brought. Cool, I think I will definitely explore CL bindings with OpenGL. Thanks!

Also:

Compilation Order: Smalltalk-78 had perpetuated the post-evaluation of receiver expressions so as to avoid delving into the stack to find the receiver. In the Smalltalk-80 language, however, we encoded the number of arguments in the send instruction. This enabled strictly left- to-right evaluation, and no one has since complained about surprising order of evaluation. We suspect that this change will yield further fruit in the future when someone tries to build a very simple compiler.

I can't speak to being on there as a company but as I said above - I've never heard of or seen so much of what gets submitted to it - it could help get the word out.

I think one of the best points of this piece is referencing the iconic U sticker that nearly all Uber drivers have on their windshield or passenger window. When I've taken an Uber in an unfamiliar city (the bulk of my Uber trips basically) and I'm on a busy street corner, seeing the unmistakeable black-and-white sticker lets me know quickly and simply that I'm hopping into the right car, or where to start walking if it's 100' away.

What will the new Uber car sticker look like from afar? A circuit board? A community college parking lot pass? There's no way it will be as obvious and instantly recognizable as a big U sticker. In fact I can't even imagine Uber drivers will swap their decals out, ever, so it'll create a rift in the overall brand (drivers with U stickers, website/app with the new brand) and increase overall confusion with passengers.
