Correct. However the problems (as I see them now) are 2fold:

No concept of time. Best case conception of time seems to be either provided by the site, "article date" or something to this effect, or t0 = when google first learned about the page.

So yes, "goat" + "animal" will return your results. Try:

https://www.google.com/#q=%22nodejs%22+%2B+%222016%22++mongo...

Top anser for: "nodejs" + "2016" mongo api

returns top hit: 2015, 2nd hit 2014.

and that I can't give it context myself:

I am on Mac, but my pc is broken looking for windows info or
don't include Alexa1000 links as authoritative. million short (i believe) removes the Alexa1000, but not their link authority.

Also, [neverShowWordpressSite unless traffic >3million unique] some larger news sites are actually built on wordpress like bloomberg. But the point is that I would delist by technology, and filter by time and tweak my authority parameters.

However, if google let you do this it would exponentially compound the difficulty as the algorithm would exist on both sides of equation.

CloudFlare claims there enterprise plans start at $5,000 USD a month, but this is not really true. Most customers who have a business plan and pay $200 a month negotiate deals for a lot less. Especially now that Akamai is dropping their pants to the mid market. You can essentially get on Akamai or Incapsula for less than what CloudFlare charges for their plans. This is what I did. I ended up with much better WAF services and less deviation on performance.

I think the government counts on this to dissuade most from whistle-blowing. That is why it takes someone who is willing to take that risk.
I believe decentralized DNS and PKIs need to happen, but using Bitcoin's blockchain was the wrong way to go here. Ethereum is much better suited for this.
> and the original "flash boys" book make a compelling case

Except it didn't, it merely showed that the author has no understand of what HFT is. Flash boys is full of hyperbolic bullshit that may sell books but shows no real understanding of how the market works. He misuses the term front running (which is illegally using knowledge of your clients positions to trade ahead of them) and applies it to being a faster speculator, which is in no way front running. The guy quite simply doesn't know what he's talking about.

>The real problem is that you would need a new hypothetical GPLv4 (since you wouldn't want to call it GPLv3 even if you could) that includes some verbiage that allows this and then get everything that is GPLv3 that you include to upgrade to this new version.

GPLv3 has the same language, except with 3 instead of 2. So releasing v4 should allow both v2 and v3 programs to upgrade to v4 without anyone needing to do anything.

The GPL as a general case allows you to distribute separate works on the same media. Packaging shouldn't matter much, as far as I understand it either both ways of distributing zfs.ko are legal or both are illegal.

Or a limited search space. For myself, it could be HN, SO and Wikipedia.

You can also niche your space. Hoogle would be an example of that. If you know the searcher cares about Haskell functions only I imagine you can beat Google in that space. That solution probably expands to other interest spheres.

The FSF couldn't arbitrarily relicense his work or the work of any of the other contributors to the Linux kernel that they don't hold the copyright to.

The GPLv3 had a long and comprehensive consultation phase. Linux contributors were involved in that.

And there's more than just dislike preventing relicensing - it would require contacting all the current Linux copyright holders and getting their agreement (or removing their code if they decline).

On balance I'd rather Linux remained GPLv2 than relicensed to Apache 2, so this is a good example of the definition of a compromise. :-)
Search being a democracy is really just a crude way of creating a better ranking system than just looking at, say, keyword occurrence count. Humans are great at filtering out spammy and useless websites, and the democracy system picks up on that.

As a next step, privacy issues aside, what if they "profiled" you by the types of things you search, and tried to guess what you need based on other people who "think like you"?

For example, I'm a programmer, and if I search "python", I'm probably searching for something different than a biologist who is researching reptiles. This would be fairly obvious to decide based on the other types of things I typically Google for.

I'm sure Google is probably already researching how to do this, though. It sounds difficult to me though because of the sheer number of models you'd have to train and store, and then figure out how to run a distributed index on. It might be more feasible to create some small set (e.g. ~1000ish) profiles of "types of people" and then match you into one of those types. This could also mildly alleviate the privacy issue as the profiling could be done offline on the client.
Sorry.

> To add to this... let's stop talking about "Quality" let's talk about "Defects per KLOC" and "User engagement" and "Clicks to do"...

Unfortunately most of those metrics lead to paperclip-maximizing. In particular, I'm fighting the "clicks to do" metric being used by a certain stakeholder.

"With your design, every user will need training and rote-memorization to know which clicks to make, they'll never really know why it works or how to recover when things are different, they'll spend 10 seconds waiting for each bloated page to load, and another 3 seconds scanning for the button-shape that they learned..."

"...But yes, I suppose it reduces the minimum-clicks-needed from five to three. Technically."
Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg is asking his employees to stop being ignorant and racist (my words, not his)

It's pretty hard to take an article seriously when the author starts it like that. I wish the people reporting on these issues would leave the hyperbole out.
Many people are quite happy it's GPLv2 only.
One of the reasons that there are currently so many stock exchanges in the US is that while you aren't allowed to quote at subpenny levels, if you have several exchanges with different levels of make/take fees, you effectively have the ability quote (or remove liquidity) at subpenny price levels net of fees and rebates. In that scenario the proliferation of exchanges is less about competition and more about finding clever ways of negotiating the regulatory environment.
I have to wonder why this dropped off the front page. I feel like stories like this get "crossed out" of HN. Anyone from HN wanna chime in?
Maybe this will help: You mention "ramification"s, but I think the GP post is trying to say that if people fulfill their responsibility, then you don't need consequences - that you don't need to focus on enforcement then.
So, as I understand it, it combines the compression ignition of diesels with opposing pistons. The opposing pistons go toward one another and compress the air/gas mixture and ignite it. The exhaust escapes when the pistons move back through ports machined in the sides (kind of like a wankel/rotary engine removes exhaust gasses).

Sounds like they're trading the spark system (a pretty easy to maintain system) for a second piston/crankshaft/etc. Essentially pulling out a cheap and perfected system for one that adds a bunch of high stress, expensive parts. Just from that sounds like a bad idea.

They say the extra efficiency comes from heat loss from the cylinder head, but I have a hard time believing they're capturing that much extra (double-digits) efficiency from heat loss alone, especially given the reduced efficiency of having more moving parts.

> Sometimes teams are more efficient and innovative when truth wins over harmony.

I suspect a confusing of "harmony" as a situation in which people don't speak up out of not wanting to hurt someone else's feelings with "harmony" where everyone is comfortable speaking their mind as they know their comments won't be taken as an attack or unnecessary criticism.

The second definition of "harmony" is actual harmony. The first is anything but.
What I'm really curious to find out is who Ubuntu talked to - the original discussions of this had Canonical saying they consulted "industry's leading software freedom legal counsel".

"There are as many opinions as there are lawyers. You just have to find the one you need."
GPL is "clearly free software" too, and FSF/OSI approved too. The problem is that the GPL and the CDDL both have no-further-restrictions clauses, as mentioned in the article:

> 6. …You may not impose any further restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.

> 3.4 … You may not offer or impose any terms on any Covered Software in Source Code form that alters or restricts the applicable version of this License

The situation would be exactly the same if, say, Linux were under the CDDL and ZFS were under the 4-clause BSD license, or the OpenSSL license, or Creative Commons, or the MPL 1.0, or whatever. The GPL and the CDDL both have exactly the same "problem" here.
Sorry I haven't gotten an opportunity to watch the video yet, so maybe the video addresses this, but if I may please ask... why would you want to render a webpage at several hundred FPS? Unless FPS is a multiple of your monitor's refresh rate, (i.e. vsync) it won't look good. You could use the extra time to do other background tasks instead of burning more CPU than you need to just to say you can do 1500 fps...
Oh fantastic, it took me a while to understand how this works, but its pretty simple (Blockstack is not an altcoin):

Blockstack nodes simultaneously run the Bitcoin daemon, and when they see a transaction on the blockchain with particular data in OP_RETURN, they add that data to the Blockstack meta-chain. Blockstack nodes have an incentive to mine the Blockstack meta-chain, because they get paid for registration of names.

What I'm interested to know, is whether the Blockstack chain allows for arbitrary key/value pairings, or whether it is intended to be just for DNS resolution. I can see a lot of utility emerging from a decentralized KVP-storage blockchain, where a user can (for example) register a username as a key, and a Bitcoin address as the value.

If something like that is possible, we could finally have a system that solves Zooko's Triangle. Decentralized and Secure are taken care of, and this allows for a user to send funds to a Human-Meaningful address (via a lookup in the KVP chain).
Yes. The timescale of FRBs is too short to be caused by mergers of supermassive black holes. In general the source of an event cannot be any larger than the time for light to cross the source. In the case of a supermassive black hole binary the light crossing time is of order seconds to minutes, but FRBs last for only a few milliseconds. This limits them to be the size of neutron stars or smaller.

This is perfect for areas and buildings where Airbnb is banned. For example I was renting out my apartment in Chicago for $250 a night until someone from the building management company contacted me saying that rentals or subleases < 1 month were not allowed in my building and I needed to take my place off the site. I removed the listing and asked them how they knew that it was up. Apparently they had an intern look through all of their properties on Airbnb regularly and find all of the Airbnb listings for them. This app would allow me hide my listing from building management but to be visible by verified travelers. I am sure this wouldn't only be true of individual buildings, but entire neighborhoods or cities where it may be banned.

I guess they would have standing here...

From: https://sfconservancy.org/copyleft-compliance/

In May 2012, Conservancy launched the GPL Compliance Project for Linux Developers, which handles compliance and enforcement activities on behalf of more than a dozen Linux copyright holders.

The GPL Compliance Project for Linux Developers is comprised of copyright holders in the kernel, Linux, who have contributed to Linux under its license, the GPLv2. These copyright holders have formally asked Conservancy to engage in compliance efforts for their copyrights in the Linux kernel. In addition, some developers have directly assigned their copyrights on Linux to Conservancy, so Conservancy also enforces the GPL on Linux via its own copyrights in Linux.

Although one wonders if copyright holders ever thought that they'd be suing a Linux company like Canonical...

This is what I'm talking about. You, a security enthusiast, are only interested in the technical security details. You respond to a comment about tradeoffs with details on the bug.

I don't care about why the bug happened or how easy it is/isn't to fix. I care about whether the existence of the bug is something I should be so concerned about as to not use the software. In order to gauge that, I need a little more info about the threat level.
Gotcha. I agree that there are a lot of potential security issues present on the iPhone, and if I was a terrorist (or my name was Edward Snowden) I would definitely act as if they were already hacked by the NSA/FBI/whomever.

However, your original comment made it sound like we had direct confirmation of that fact. I hadn't heard that before, which is why I was interested.
Zero to Won – Ep. #4 Heroku and Heavybit Founder James Lindenbaum on Quality
It seems that last-minute requests on AirBnB do not really succeed because the hosts aren't prepared to respond in time. So, it's a psychological / cultural issue because AirBnB was created without this 'last-minute' booking concept / ability in mind (right?).

Even with this app, don't you still need to coordinate with the host for entrance, parking, etc?

Also, the fact that multiple requests for the same accommodations by the same user aren't consolidated and yield multiple chargings seems like a bug...

The hassle seem more related to what you stated, that AirBnB "isn't optimized for last-minute bookings."
Aww, just like every person I call at an 800 number is a Customer Executive, every product I buy is Award Winning, every slice of pizza I eat is World Famous, every company I work with is an Industry Leader, etc. This is also how I am the founder, president, CEO, and owner of my company, which is basically just me and my laptop doing contract work every once in a while.

Look, this is a stupid bug in their algorithm, and will probably be fixed at some point. Or perhaps the label falls off during hour number 2 when nobody is buying it. There are other ways to hack the Amazon publishing system, like Tim Ferris did when he sent free copies of his book out to people so that they would leave reviews when it went on sale. Does it really matter?
I don't think it should be surprising that one of the biggest, highest-earning science/engineering areas of the world are filled with people who enjoy "spending their life at work".

The problem isn't directly with the amount of almonds. They're a fungible commodity; market pricing will take care of that. The root problem is that the main input to almond production, water, is being drastically subsidized below what market price would be, meaning that almond growers aren't getting the correct market feedback to properly scale production. If the growers were charged a market rate for water, and almond demand didn't change despite the price increase, then there's no reason for them to produce less.

The FBI here only represents the 'legal' government and not the world of secret courts and the NSA.

The NSA did infact try to build backdoors into important hardware and software standards. They did push companies into using worse crypto. The do massiv port scanning and build themself botnets from where thet attack other nation states. And thats just a tiny fraction of what they do.

So yes, I absolutly do need computer hardware and software that even the manufacturer cant break. Low level security for boot and authentification is only the first in many, many steps that we have to take all the way up to imroving usability in end user applications to make it hard to do the wrong thing.

The FBI are not the o ly player, all governments want such control, all governments have things like the NSA. Even private actors are getting better and better.

We do need better security to protect the integrety of all our data, this includes all our communication and even, if possible metadata that we produce.

Spent my high school years in a poor, rural county in southeastern Virginia that was mostly black. All of these folks were descended from slaves, and there was never a doubt in my mind that white oppression in the past had created numerous, deep disadvantages for my friends and classmates who had the misfortune of being part of families who had suffered from the legacy of slavery and Jim Crow.

That being said, I've always found that black ethnocentrism has a similar effect to white ethnocentrism: it causes further division and worsens the problem it claims to try to solve.

The statement "Black Lives Matter" offends me, because it makes the assumption that because I'm not black, I don't think black lives matter, and therefore have to be told that they do. Most of my friends growing up were black. My best friend was closer to me than my brothers, was best man at my wedding, and I at his. It also over-simplifies a complex problem, that has at its root the fact that the hostile relationship between blacks and police is not one-directional. It was started by white police with decades of oppression, but the current situation is a cycle perpetuated by the thought that police are the enemy. If you have been told your whole life that police are the enemy, then you are going to behave differently when they approach you than someone else. If the police are in a community where everyone has been taught this, they will behave in a way that ends up supporting this belief, and the seeds of conflict are sown.

Ethnocentrism has never, ever helped unify people. My personal experience growing up and socializing in a mostly black social environment left me with the impression that there is a minority of black Americans who, similar to a minority of white Americans, are ethnocentric and racist towards those who don't share their race. The difference is that the black variety of ethnocentric activists are openly tolerated and encouraged by white people who have never in their life spent ten minutes under the roof of a black person's home, let alone attended black churches or been involved in family events such as Thanksgiving dinners, weddings, funerals, etc.

Racism is a part of the human condition, as is its direct precursor, ethnocentrism. Pretending that it's different depending on the person's complexion tells me that these white folks view black Americans as different than themselves, almost less human. I hold all humans, no matter how difficult their background, to a higher standard.
At least it's clearly identified as paraphrasing.
