Obviously it comes to personal judgment when people use my tools. I mean they could also do as described in transfer.sh, pipe first the data through gpg. The server accepts any kind of data as long as it doesn't overflow the current set size limit.

But indeed I do agree that I can't guarantee or even prove that I can't access the files on my server. That's why I offer a quick and simple way for people to setup this on their own machine, so they can have this lightweight server and use it as if it was mine just by modifying a line in the configuration file of the client (or changing the URL in the curl commands)

I'm glad you enjoyed the tool though :D
I think it already does that if an app requests to run in the background while recording. Spotify and the Voice Memos app leave a red bar at the top of the screen (like the green one while on the phone) if you background them while recording.

He understands products and markets really well, and his feedback is always on point and help us to improve. I strongly suggest every founder to apply to his incubator if you have a very solid product.

The very first step in web performance is to just load less: it's truly amazing how much unnecessary crap is put on pages these days to just convey some simple information.

The modern web is perfectly fine and fast, it's just abused to hell by all the extra "design", images, ads, videos, analytics, etc. Just keeping it simple would solve more problems than anything else.

I think almost everyone who has ascended has read at least some spoilers; there seems to be only one (?) counterexample.

Other suggestions: Consult the Oracle (her advice is concrete and essential), read the Guidebook (http://www.nethack.org/v360/Guidebook.html; not generally considered spoilers), and watch other people play on a public server (like nethack.alt.org).

The last one could be considered a spoiler because other players will rely on and demonstrate knowledge that you didn't acquire from playing by yourself, but it can be considered a much weaker or much different form of spoiler than reading the detailed explanation documents. Your gameplay is likely to improve a lot if you watch other expert players for a while, although bear in mind that different players have different play styles and agendas and some may be trying to do things that are unnecessarily boring, complex, or difficult.
And yet this is so much more useful than the hundreds of pages of blog posts and security advisories that have to be individually a) found and b) understood in order to do security correctly on even a simple website.

Yes, I agree that an expandable "explanation and subtleties" section would be wise, but I'm very glad this exists even without.
Emphatically no.

Time and again, new services have come out, for decades, that supposedly will help solve the versioning, collaboration, and reproducibility issues with academic papers.

They never work, and the tools are always misused in this same way: as a catch-all bucket for disparate and unrelated snapshots of the paper, the code, and the data.

Merely moving from manual versioning in Dropbox to manual versioning in git is not in the least bit to be considered progress. We have to absolutely curb the underlying problematic behavior (e.g. this repo has but a single commit, the concept of version doesn't even apply) before it counts as even the tiniest step in the right direction.

In fact, I see it as a huge problem that people are chiming in to say that using git is in and of itself some kind of positive step. Why?

I don't care if you use svn, darcs, mercurial, git, perforce, or any other versioning system. The fundamental issue is actually keeping track of the changes you've made, and ensuring the precise version used for publication is trackable and available.

Even using Dropbox with clear documentation of changes made would be better than using a git repo where, prior to your first commit, you have destroyed all version history information and manually put everything into the "good" commit that you feel like "showing" to everyone.

That behavior is the entire problem. Using git, in and of itself, doesn't represent any degree of departure from the old practices. Just because git is popular and new-ish and sexy doesn't mean simply dropping stuff in a git repo constitutes progress. That's a dangerous implication.
Can you share the methodology of your study where you determined the data to be accurate?

Who Need Google Apps for Work?

Oh, for sure. My point was that most of those mean needing certain items/skills, which may mean heading back out of sokoban in search of them - which ties it more intimately with the rest of the game.

Exercise in Futility
One big problem with using coroutines for "scripting" long running events in games I don't often see mentioned is what to do - if anything - about saving their state. For cutscenes this can be ignored for sure, but what if you tie something like a long conversation tree into a coroutine?

For this example library if your making some sort of traditional adventure game and you wanted the player to be able to save the game you'd have to restrict saving to checkpoints, use a loop with a switch (practically moving back to the state machine approach), or just split the conversation up into multiple coroutines as it progresses.

And of course, there's the whole "what to do when you need to patch the game" problem on top of all that.

No. The reason not to use Argon2 is that it doesn't have great library support yet. Password hashes don't really fail like ciphers do. Nothing that is discovered in Argon2 is going to make it worse than PBKDF2, and using PBKDF2 is just fine if that's all you've got.

I still find Blake's 7 one of the best shows ever made while a lot of people cannot watch the styrofoam and other crap effects. I never saw those then and I still do not (we do some marathons of the old with friends, some are 20something), the storytelling and less than actionpactness is part of the dystopian and lost feeling. The absense of 16 year old (looking) unrealistic starry-eyed teens helps as well giving this brutal Federation world it's atmosphere.

I find it a crying shame a lot of people cannot appreciate these shows, movies or games. They are not that different...

Hey everyone, cofounder of Redspread (YC W16) here. We just shipped Localkube, local development with Kubernetes. You can set up a full configured Kubernetes 1.2 cluster on your local machine in one command with Spread, our command line tool. Localkube has everything you need for networking, and is a single executable, single container, and single process.

It's the easiest way we've seen to set up a Kubernetes cluster and get started immediately.

How the demonization of emulation devalues gaming’s heritage
That was not at all my point. I'm saying that you should be able to reason naturally from "individuals have rights" to "groups of individuals have rights", without encountering some massive disconnect when the group of individuals happens to have formed a company.

If code is speech, and compelling the development and signing of code is compelled speech and thus prohibited, then it shouldn't matter whether the legal entity charged with the development and signing of that code is a company or an individual. It's wrong to compel an individual developer to develop and sign a backdoored version of a program they personally wrote and personally hold the signing keys for, and therefore it's wrong to compel a company to develop and sign a backdoored version of a program they collectively wrote and collectively hold the signing keys for.

Just to add a comment on page rank, from what I've heard that is a actually a very small contributor to the overall google algorithm. That is - at least in the way it was originally conceived by Larry Page - PageRank is now only a minuscule tuner amongst 100's of other tuners in the overall search algorithm now, but because it was the first and core part of the google algorithm, people still continue to assume it is the predominant one.
Exactly. I imagine it's something like the following:

};
struct shell : option<bool> { using option<bool>::option; };
struct output : option<std::string> { using option<std::string>::option; };
struct options {
bool mShell;
std::string mOutput;
};
void applyOpt(options& opts, const shell& opt)
{
opts.mShell = opt.getValue();
std::cout << "shell=" << (opts.mShell ? "true" : "false") << '\n';
}
void applyOpt(options& opts, const output& opt)
{
opts.mOutput = opt.getValue();
std::cout << "output=" << opts.mOutput << '\n';
}
void applyOpts(options&) {}
template <typename HeadOpt, typename... TailOpts> void applyOpts(options& opts, HeadOpt&& headOpt, TailOpts&&... tailOpts)
{
applyOpt(opts, std::forward<HeadOpt>(headOpt));
applyOpts(opts, std::forward<TailOpts>(tailOpts)...);
}

return 0;

If you like dystopian scifi and do not mind the Queens English it is well worth the watch. I like anything from scifi to drama and even some musicals and recently one of my best friends who is a script rewriter got me into reading scripts instead. That's a whole different experience: it is quite nice for me as I have a vivid and graphical imagination. Very different from books. It however does make the average production seem even more cookie-cutter.

Edit: I do not think I watched or read Clash of the Titan '81 so I will.

I find it weird that this is called "San Francisco's first automated restaurant". Automated restaurants were widespread throughout the early-to-mid-20th century.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automat

From the descriptions, it's not clear that the level of automation in the new automated restaurant is that much higher than in a traditional automat. (Like in previous automats, there are still human beings working in a kitchen out-of-sight behind the wall.) Other journalists called this particular restaurant "a new take on an old model", "a new take on the classic automat", and "the return of the automat".

An automat company was "once the world's largest restaurant chain":

> I'm worried that my advancement (and earnings)

That is probably true, but why worry? Lifetime earnings are the area under the curve, if you hit the cap early you get to go longer at the cap and end up with higher lifetime earnings.

If you want to remove the limits on your compensation then you need to be the CEO of a company. The easiest way to do that is to start your own company and learn from your experiences doing that. You might also fail completely as a CEO for a variety of reasons and that will not only cut off your earnings now, but make it harder to get a job back in your "old" role of individual contributor. It is a risk you take.
