It does but the most common JITed language in existence is JavaScript, where the uncertainty is especially pronounced. For example, Python isn't [traditionally] a JITed language but most Python developers know that their code will run on CPython, which is pretty stable and you have a rough idea of which versions it'll run on, whereas something running in a browser can see huge shifts in what is an expensive or cheap operation from user to user over the course of a single day, much less release to release.

Remember when WebKit started JITing regular expressions? That changed the benchmark situation so much that some people called it cheating and not a single line of user code changed. That's not impossible in other environments – I'm sure there's been a case where a shared library update made a big difference – but it's far less common in my experience.

The reason for the move to dedicated servers (AFAIK) was because without it, they couldn't really do offline messages. Once WhatsApp etc started doing this, the Skype team realised that their greatest strength (no paying for bandwidth or servers etc) was actually their greatest weakness, since they couldn't deliver the features that people had begun to expect from chat apps. There was a great article on this .. but I can't find it.
Yes, absolutely. I write a lot of stuff that uses Google OAuth in order to to interact with google apps on behalf of a user (generate calendar events from forum posts, etc). I ask for the auth scopes separately and my code makes it clear what it's asking for (and the extra auths are asked for outside of the login-authenticate stuff which is always super-basic).

Because of this, I'm extra attentive to what these scopes ask for and definitely don't sign up for anything that looks sketchy (especially the gmail stuff) - most recently TripIt asked for that permission (I suppose to scan my email in order to find travel documents). Even if I trust that TripIt isn't going to misuse that auth right now, there's no way I'm allowing that credential.

I kind of wish I could set universal auto-reject at the google account level of some auth scopes. Like, "I will never allow https://mail.google.com/ scope (or any of the https://www.googleapis.com/auth/* ones)".

Here is what I would call a chassis dyno http://www.maha.de/roller-function-tester-fps-2700.htm
These are very very noisy, because the tires are moving at 70 or 80 mph (whatever you set) and make as much noise as tires going 70 down a highway (only 1 axle though!)

A rolling road is different in that the floor moves under the car, not just rollers under 1 or 2 axles. Like this http://www.qmtmag.com/images/Windshear_RR_05.jpg
The chassis dynos are noisy, these are super noisy.

Disclosure: I sold Maha dynos from 96-2000 with SnapOn/Sun branding, about 40 of them.

How to Reengage Prospects When Your MVP Is Ready
Laws are rigid and don't keep up with the changing times. You might argue that that's the government's fault for not passing new laws, and that's a fair point. However, the judicial has set a precedent over the past 200 years or so of interpreting laws to fit with changing circumstances. Given that's the case, it's hard to blame the FBI for taking advantage of that.

The laws are what the courts interpret them to be; no more and no less. Like it or not, strict interpretation is a fantasy and has been since the late 1700s.
But the bag of tricks is a feature of US undergrad education seemingly everywhere, except perhaps in pockets at the very highest level. The tricks permit the student to pass the test so they can go on to do something else. Whoever sits in a chemistry course isn't there for the chemistry, they are mostly there to go up to medical school or allied health science. Of course there are entrance exams.

We have stopped putting things into context, i.e. we do not provide an education any longer. The sideswipe remark in the original paper about Prof. Neanderthaler is also very real.

>Hmm. Perhaps I have confused your meaning.
I thought this whole time you mean people who owe taxes, don't want to pay taxes, and expatriate to try to avoid paying those taxes.

>Do you mean people who will in the future need to pay taxes, and expatriate in order to avoid future obligations?

Yes, I mean the latter. If you rack of legal debts (of any sort) as a citizen, IMO you should pay. Part of the naturalization process in most countries is a check to see that you're not some kind of criminal and that you've tied up all the financial loose ends in the country of your birth. My problem is that Congress assumes jurisdiction over your actions and finances if you were ever a citizen.

It used to be widely recognized in international law that the laws of a country only applied on the soil of that country and on ships traveling in international waters under that country's flag. If you traveled to a different country you were under the jurisdiction of that country's laws. So as a citizen of the US, if I moved to Germany, say, even though I was a US citizen I could do things that are illegal in the US as long as they're legal in Germany. And I couldn't do things that were illegal in Germany even if they're legal in the US.

This all seems like common sense.

But it's changed in recent decades, as countries are punishing citizens for things they do elsewhere, e.g. Swedes, who are breaking Swedish law if they patronize a prostitute even in another country where it's perfectly legal. I think this kind of overlapping jurisdiction is a terrible idea, but whatever.

The idea you fall under a country's law even if you become a citizen of another country and renounce the citizenship of your birth is a bridge too far. As far as I know most countries won't extradite a citizen (even a naturalized citizen) for that sort of thing.

The US government presumes to tax your (new) income for ten years after you've renounced your citizenship, even if you had no outstanding tax debt at the time of renunciation. There's also a one-time 40% tax on assets held in the US, which I find less objectionable but still pretty damn objectionable.
And that leads to the other core issue few address: "supply and demand" still rules, and the economy would merely shift prices to drive beneficiaries right back where they were before. If you don't have to actually do anything to buy a gallon of gas or a loaf of bread, prices will rise until you once again have to work about 20 minutes of menial labor to earn whatever "extra" you need to buy it.

Most people benefitting from BI wouldn't be using it to go start a business or produce fine art, they're going to sit around watching TV or procreating or finding some new imputed need to demand even more BI to cover. Harsh, yes, but fits my dismayed discoveries whenever I go out serving the poor (doesn't stop me, but does increase bitterness).
Completely agree with you. Should have stated that i was taught in the US, where it would be ... slightly atypical to be going 200km/h ;) At the time that I took drivers education classes, the US national speed limit was still 55mph, about 88km/h. At that speed, 2 seconds is probably a good rule of thumb for something that's pretty easier for a driver to observe.
Agree. I run a forum which inevitably attracts a few mentally unstable types. It is just not worth the risk of antagonising those people; best to carefully ignore and avoid having yourself becoming a significant identity in their lives. Never know when someone goes off the rails and you're someone they think of.
Oddly enough, Discord started out as a chat/voip tool for smaller gaming groups too, but as a side-effect of awesome engineering we've been able to handle large communities really well. Over the winter break, one community sprung up, going from no users, to about 2400 concurrents at peak, with about 600 of them in voice chat at the same time.

Also, our tech stack for the native/web client is React & our iOS app is React Native, so it was pretty awesome to see Reactiflux migrate to Discord.
In case you're wondering -- deep down inside, here's what Jamie Dimon really thinks about that pesky regulation stuff:

In a new afterword for the release of the paperback version of her book A Fighting Chance, Warren recalls that the tenor of the conversation between the two policy adversaries soured when Dimon complained about financial regulations that she has supported:

When the conversation turned to financial regulation and Dimon began complaining about all the burdensome rules his bank had to follow, I finally interrupted. I was polite, but definite. No, I didn’t think the biggest banks were overregulated. In fact, I couldn’t believe he was complaining about regulatory constraints less than a year after his bank had lost billions in the infamous London Whale high-risk trading episode. I said I thought the banks were still taking on too much risk and that they seemed to believe the taxpayers would bail them out -- again -- if something went wrong.

Our exchange heated up quickly. By the time we got to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, we weren’t quite shouting, but we were definitely raising our voices. At this point -- early in 2013 -- Rich Cordray was still serving as director of the consumer agency under a recess appointment; he hadn’t yet been confirmed by the Senate, which meant that the agency was vulnerable to legal challenges over its work. Dimon told me what he thought it would take to get Congress to confirm a director, terms that included gutting the agency’s power to regulate banks like his. By this point I was furious. Dodd-Frank had created default provisions that would automatically go into effect if there was no confirmed director, and his bank was almost certainly not in compliance with the those rules. I told him that if that happened, “I think you guys are breaking the law.”

Suddenly Dimon got quiet. He leaned back and slowly smiled. “So hit me with a fine. We can afford it.”

Huffington Post, 3/31/2015, http://huff.to/1CHlXIy
"* Price is an important signalling mechanism, and so---given the costs of book production---it's important to the publishers not to drive the perceived fair cost of books down below, no matter whether Amazon is currently subsidizing that or not."

I think this is the number one reason. The issue is that the prices are too high for perceived value.

I buy a fair number of non-fiction books and loved when ebooks emerged as a viable way to buy a book at what I perceived to be a reasonable price. Now that the agency model has been in force I've just shifted how I buy ... I buy used books from Amazon.

All the books I used to buy as ebooks the publisher was receiving revenue. Now, they don't receive any money from my purchases.

The book publishing industry still has a window of opportunity to transition to ebooks under their own direction, but it's almost closed. See the recording industry.

Part of me wants to say 'bring it on'. I once said to a copyright lobbyist that I think applies here: "Don't try to out-internet kids". Allowing police to hack into computers will start a war between law abiding citizens and police hackers. The cops cannot win that fight. Everyone will mobilize against them. Their malware will be studied and published across the planet. And it will certainly help push people away from proprietary systems in favour of f/oss.

There's a moment in the pilot of The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt where the women are rescued from the bunker and put on a daytime talk show and Matt Lauer asks one of the women how she ended up in the bunker:

"I had waited on Reverend Richard at a York Steak House I worked at, and one night he invited me out to his car to see some baby rabbits, and I didn’t want to be rude, so… here we are."

And Matt Lauer responds: "I’m always amazed by what women will do because they’re afraid of being rude…"

It's often hard for men to understand the societal pressure placed on women to be accommodating and not be rude and how this can be manipulated to constrain female agency in the world.

No number of "refuseniks" is negligible for a country whose political system has inculcated its citizens -- perhaps more successfully than any on Earth[1] -- that theirs is not just the "best" country in the world, but, in polite terms, the Best Motherfucken Country In The Whole Goddamn World (further expletives deleted) -- such that while OK, they might want to go live somewhere for a while (or even permanently) -- no one in their right mind would even think of revoking their permanent Right of Return to this, the Greatest, Freest, Proudest Nation The World Has Ever Seen, Known or Dreamt Of.

> And if you can get around the digital signage, you don't need the compromised OS.

Not necessarily. Someone could get their hands on the signing keys or find a vulnerability in the signature verification without having the knowledge or resources to create something worth signing. Or figure out a way to bypass the check by changing something that isn't covered by the signature, or use something like rowhammer or hardware hacking to flip the bit from saying the check failed to saying the check passed, etc.
Biology in the Coming Years
Channels are "just" mutexes as well. They are also not very fine grained because they have to deal with the general case. You can get much more precise writing your own locking code in Golang.
The solution you're looking for is OAuth. It's in fact never been "all or nothing", its' always been a choice by each app and service. The reason most apps ask for everything is because 99% of users don't understand or care, and if you try to explain it to them, they'll get confused, bored, or nervous, and not use your app.

"What's nice about OAuth is that it allows the end user to control access to information and revoke access as needed."

Users are free to revoke their their permissions at any time, but they won't be able to use an app without the permissions. You could very easily build a UI with user-variable permission scopes on account creation/management with OAuth, but no one bothers, because it would be a pain to manage on the backend for zero economic gain.
This is assuredly by design. IP addresses are mostly likely being hard-throttled according to time.

Whether the CAPTCHA tests are actually solvable, the goal, and the effort invested therein, is clearly to slow down the rate of throwaways per IP, per unit of time. Not test for humans.

It's not completely unreasonable to throttle an IP, and cap throwaways (read: ALL new accounts), to a maximum of 2 per 24 hours. It's also trivial to bypass with a different IP.

But yeah, those fucking image CAPTCHAS. Holy shit, they are definitely unsolvable at the current setting.

And the audio test, I'm six-sigma certain I got at least one in ten correct, and I was still refused.

Every single version of the iOS kernel has been dumped. That gives you most [0] of what you need to craft a modified version. The largest barrier to running these modified versions is getting the target hardware to accept them as authentic. All public bootrom/iBoot exploits on the iPhone 3GS/4 patch the bootloaders' RSA authentication out in some form or another. There are no public bootrom exploits out for iPhone 4S+ devices.

Thus, having the signing key (or the power to compel signing at will) is an incredible ability privy only to Apple.
