Oh gosh. How hard is it for people to understand that black people have more of a right to complain than white people?

"Embracing racial diversity" means that you acknowledge that racism and segregation is still very prevalent in the united states and all over the world. "Black Lives Matter" attempts to raise awareness of this situation and bring justice to shitty cops.

Congrats on the launch and the several weeks of iteration.
As a habitual rule-breaker since birth, I can confirm that the US is actually very rule-bound. In fact most rule-breaking is punished, even in places that supposedly encourage breaking the rules. And this has gotten even more so since 9/11. Want proof? Just look at the evolution of university computer networks. I've spent a lot of time in university (doing nothing mostly) and the networks are locked down compared to the atmosphere of open experimentation that was prevalent in the 90s. There are many, many examples to back the claim made by the parent. The US is not as free of a nation as everyone says.

As the article said, this is a replacement for the password login system. The 'mailed-token' login system is just another way to receive a session that is logged in with that user, and therefore has the same limitations and possibilities as the password login system.
The robustness experiments are highly parallelized and maintain a copy of the (modified) network per thread. I vaguely remember the NYC test would take around a day on 16? cores and use up to 64GB of RAM.

You can find query time evaluation in the performance recap on the results page I linked. For NYC it's around 2.2s for the Dijkstra (baseline) and 27ms for the TP-based search.

For single-threaded pre-computation and shortest-path queries, I would expect you to need around 8GB for NYC, less for Toronto and you can get the Honolulu feeds to run on <2GB (which was my local test set).

Sorry for not being more specific or inaccurate.

> Cryptography was once controlled by the state and deployed only for military and diplomatic ends. But in the 1970s, cryptographer Whitfield Diffie devised a system which took encryption keys away from the state and marked the start of the so-called "Crypto Wars".

That is an outright lie and the mere fact that this was published as truth shows the BBC is just a propoganda arm of the UK.

> So what they said is right, if you specifically know they're talking about public key cryptography and know the history of it. It could have been better written.

> Secondly they're trying to dumb down the history of public key cryptography, and what they mean by "once controlled by the state" is that James H. Ellis & Clifford Cocks discovered and implemented it in secret for the GCHQ in 1970-73. With Malcolm J. Williamson implementing the Diffie–Hellman key exchange in 1974.

William Stanley Jevons basically foreshadowed its existence in the 1800s. There was no way it could be controlled once computers became common.

The fact the GCHQ couldn't keep it secret for even 10 years pretty much shows that.

They never had control except for the briefest of windows and pretending that was really control of cryptography in any substantial way is crazy.

I don't at all disagree with that, actually. I do consider that a part of setup.py, but it rarely matters in practice. The python ecosystem doesn't have similar programmatic api specs compared to, say, PHP where they get together and rigidly define these things:
http://www.php-fig.org/psr/psr-7/

Not to say the PHP strategy is necessarily ideal (feels restrictive to me), rather just the comparison between the two. That's the sort of ecosystem that would make the abstract part matter more
First, I hope no one flags this question again but it's both (1) relevant to the mission statement of HN, and (2) perfectly civil.

That said -- "malicious" might not have been the best word for him to use. Even though one is offended by (otherwise sees harm in) the actions of others, one shouldn't always presume malice. You do have a point there.

But otherwise -- and more importantly -- look, you need to realize that, basically the ALM movement is pretty darn insensitive and clueless. The main reason people take offense at the ALM slogan is that it seems belittling of the (very serious, and more to the point, seriously unequal) threats to their physical safety that blacks (and other minority groups) have to deal with on a daily basis.

As the other poster so eloquently put it -- yes, some people do have more right to complain. It's just the way the world is, at present. If you don't like this state of affairs... either (1) try to do something about the underlying phenomena which causes these people to complain more in the first place, or (2) at least lift your head up, and recognize that however imperfectly stated, their complaints are not about you, and as such, in no way meant to be something you should get offended about.

So in sum, yes, the ALM slogan isn't necessarily malicious, per se. But it is clueless and juvenile.
Looking at it briefly, Tor support is a bit misleading. It only protects content authors and seeders, and not viewers. (Someone could just inject an external image reference to reveal their true IP address as HTML seems to be not sanitized.) This seems to be the key difference from Freenet.

The actual app looks really cluttered (with multiple left hand panes for navigation). The "beautiful" statement seems more directed at the rainbow UI, which seems more distracting than anything else.

The same way Kayne is grateful for the free exposure he got for his "The Life of Pablo" album and his "Tidal" subscription-based music streaming service, by meeting with his legal team to discuss the possibility of suing The Pirate Bay? [1]

Do you think a kid in his bedroom who hasn't saved up enough allowance to buy Serum, start his own subscription-based music streaming service, and hire his own legal team to sue pirate bay, probably has a mom who has already purchased it and licensed on another computer at home, too?

So are you going to address the question of why Zynga needs to employ 2000 people to run a game company or not? I am actually asking and would be grateful if you could enlighten me.

Mandatory Auditor Rotation Actually Hurting Firms?
In Zynga's case, their market cap is actually less than the value they attach to their assets. This is particularly interesting because of these two numbers from their 2015 balance sheet:

- Goodwill - 657,671,000

- Property, plant and equipment - 273,221,000

The 273 million in PP&E is interesting because that is essentially the purchase price on their headquarters building (or $340 per square foot). Office space in San Francisco is going for around $800 per square foot now.

Since investors know about that potential large gain, they are effectively saying two things:

1.) They do not trust that Zynga will ever deliver profits.

2.) They value goodwill at zero.

In a case like this, honestly, laying off people is one of the more palatable tools in their box. A round of layoffs would:

a.) Drop their annual operating loss (they lost about $45m in 2015 and if their headcount stays the same and they lease space in the building they currently own, they can expect that loss to rise in 2016.)

b.) Cut the amount of space that they need to lease.

c.) Streamline the company.

Of course, it could also:

a.) Kill morale.

b.) Encourage everyone left to dust off their resumes and stream for the exits while the job market in San Francisco stays strong.

Either way, Zynga is in a tough spot. Investors have ultimately valued the company at assets + zero and show little faith that the company will ever be profitable again. Layoffs are a tough thing and they often backfire, but strategically, they aren't unthinkable.
Agreed, thanks for saying this. I'm always a bit weirded out when someone tries to tell me I'm not disabled because I'm successful, so of course I'm able. I get that, probably from a pure linguistic perspective, the word "disabled" has negative connotations. In actuality though, there's a rich disability community. Chicago (I think, anyway) has an annual disability pride parade. We live in a culture that tries to strip lots away from us when we're disabled, and sometimes it's all we can do to claw some of that back. So while someone may mean well by claiming that someone who is successful or competent shouldn't be called disabled, it takes away that person's autonomy and ability to self-identify, and also removes success and competence from what people think of when they think "disabled." IOW, if someone can say that the word "disabled" doesn't apply to a person because they do something well, others in the set of disabled people have it a bit worse off because they're both faced with a challenge and not able to handle it well.

That said, I didn't think this was the author's intent. But I can't count how many times someone didn't think I was blind because I wrote well, and they couldn't conceive of how someone who couldn't see could write a coherent sentence. :) Try applying for jobs in that expectational landscape and, well, it's challenging and is why I don't even like working for others anymore.
b) would in general be a lot safer, in that you're elevating one process rather than lowering a privileged interface so that every process you run can sniff it.
This is why these things are so personal. I'd hate this. The up/down bindings are absolutely tied to specific command orders in my head. I need to know that "three commands back" is wherever I was in the sequence of commands that I'm repeating.

If I'm trying to semantically query my history (for "ssh") in this case I'll use the ^R binding to incrementally search the history, or literally grep ~/.history for what I'm looking for.

That's not to say that you're "wrong", just that calling these things "sensible defaults" is sort of missing the point. Nothing about them is sensible for everyone.
MH370 search: debris found in Mozambique 'belongs to Boeing 777'
Geneva is something like 0.1% black. If in 5 years of buying drugs, you find that ~80% of your dealers are black, then I think you can make the assumption that most drug dealers in Geneva are black. I don't see that as racism - that's just a statement of fact.

Now, if you carried that one step further and said that black people in Geneva are probably drug dealers, then yeah, that's racist...
Just to color with the facts - which only underscore your point:

"In one incident, after receiving a complaint from Steve Jobs of Apple, Schmidt sent an email to Google's HR people saying; "I believe we have a policy of no recruiting from Apple and this is a direct inbound request. Can you get this stopped and let me know why this is happening? I will need to send a response back to Apple quickly so please let me know as soon as you can. Thanks Eric". Schmidt's email led to a recruiter for Google being "terminated within the hour" for not having adhered to the illegal scheme. Under Schmidt, there was a "Do Not Call list" of companies Google would avoid recruiting from.[37] According to a court filing, another email exchange shows Google's human resources director asking Schmidt about sharing its no-cold call agreements with competitors. Schmidt responded that he preferred it be shared "verbally, since I don't want to create a paper trail over which we can be sued later?".[36]

Probably better than the alternative, since they'd at least be thinking about security as something more than an abstract "thing." If that. Then they just need to take that fear and find a way to funnel it into proper security education without that fear becoming crippling.

Key findings, page 1

> Around 1 in 12 (8.6%) adults aged 16 to 59 had taken an illicit drug in the last year. This equated to around 2.8 million people. This level of drug use was similar to the 2013/14 survey (8.8%), but significantly lower than a decade ago (11.2% in the 2004/05 survey).

Cannabis, page 3 (The chart on that page is pretty clear.)

> As in previous years, cannabis was the most commonly used drug in the last year, with 6.7 per cent of adults aged 16 to 59 using it in the last year, similar to the 2013/14 survey (6.6%; Figure 1.2). Over the longer-term, between the 1998 and 2003/04 surveys, the last year use of cannabis was stable, at around 10 per cent of adults, before falling to 6.5 per cent in 2009/10. The trend since the 2009/10 survey has been relatively flat, at between six and seven per cent (Table 1.02).

> Among younger adults aged 16 to 24, cannabis was also the most commonly used drug, with 16.3 per cent having used it in the last year. This was not statistically significantly different from the level in 2013/14 (15.1%), but was a significant fall compared with the 1996 survey (25.8%).

> Although the trend in the use of cannabis among 16 to 24 year olds appears to have shown a steady increase compared with the 2012/13 survey, it is too early to conclude that this is an emerging pattern at this stage. The estimates from the 2012/13 survey appear to be out of line with recent results, and a comparison of the latest estimate to previous years may indicate that the trend, which has been falling since the peak in 1998, has gradually stabilised (Table 1.06).

For the US: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/06/13/teen-marijuana-use-... (sorry about huffpo. CDC need to have a better website.)

> The biennial High School Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance System survey from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention revealed that the rate of marijuana use among U.S. high school students remained virtually unchanged from 2011 to 2013. It's also about 3 percent less than the peak of teen marijuana use in 1999, when nearly 27 percent of teens said they had recently used marijuana, according to the CDC data.

> In 2013, 23.4 percent of American high-school-aged teens used marijuana one or more times in the 30 days before the survey, the data show. That's nearly even with 23.1 percent in 2011.
ALL drugs should be legal. At least in the sense that using is not a criminal offence. Once drugs are legalised, regulated, quality assured by the government, and of course taxed, a large proportion of crime will be eradicated. Why would I buy illegal dirty drugs when I can buy the cleaner official versions?
I'm not sure how anything I said "ignores post 1789". In fact, my statement is precisely calling out that our history is one of incremental codification and precedent forming which has tended to constrain state vs federal power. In fact I feel like I'd be "ignoring" more had I argued the opposite point, that states still had as significant power as they once did, since that power balance was tested as quickly as 2 years later in 1791.

As you say; it was drafted to solve the problem of differing business rules/trade, but the scope was originally VERY limited to interstate commerce. I simply don't see how it can be argued against that the purview has pretty distinctly expanded from then on.
That just makes me remember how awesome my TNT2 Ultra was. Maybe that it was replacing a 8MB ATI card/Voodoo2 combo was part of that, but that NVIDIA card held it's own for a while. I might even still have it somewhere.

Please stop spreading this meme. The long term health effects include PAWS, post-acute withdrawal syndrome. This is not coming from a drug warrior, but someone who has seen this in friends first hand.

Heroin downregulates receptors to such a degree that it can take a person months to years to never to feel normal again without opiates, depending on the length of habit.

A heroin addiction of as short a duration as three months can easily take someone 3-6 months to feel normal again from.

PAWS symptoms include anhedonia, lack of motivation, lack of concentration.

For people addicted to heroin for a decade, or for people who were addicted at young ages, they may never feel ok without long term opiate maintenance.

Heroin suppresses neurogenesis in the hippocampus.

Also, it should be made abundantly clear to anyone who has taken some oxycontin that heroin is not equivalent. A mild heroin addiction can develop in as little as three days of use, where oxycodone can be used for 2-3 weeks without developing significant withdrawal symptoms.

Heroin is more addictive than oxycodone, and it is easy to take doses that depress respiration while sleeping to unhealthy levels.

Heroin use can induce central sleep apnea in many people that use it. This is not healthy.

Drugs that downregulate receptors are incredibly irrational things to do compulsively.

Buy Feeling Good by David Burns and give yourself some cogntive behavioral therapy, please.

Heroin can make your world dark in a way you do not want to experience.

For anyone that wants to safely experiment with opiates, please stick to safer subsitutes like oxycodone, or opium.

If you want to experiment with heroin, never, ever do heroin more than two days in a row. Just two days is enough to produce some hangover effects. This is not the case with opium, or oxycodone.

And if you do have a habit, get some suboxone and get off heroin. The prohibition lifestyle will kill you.

I just buried a friend from an overdose.

Believe me, I really wish these weren't the facts. I wish heroin was as safe as this meme makes it out to be.

Ultimately, the market has been setup to almost mandate participation. If you work someplace that provides a matching 401k program, and you choose not to contribute, then you're passing-up on matched dollars if you don't contribute to a 401k. If you're a part of any endowment, pension plan, or other managed retirement plan there's a good chance that plan (and your money) is being invested in the market.

So what are your options? Do you not contribute to a 401k or IRA, pay the full tax rate on all of your income today, and invest in real estate or some other investment?
