The depth you are going into security hardening and analyzing vulnerabilities potential impact on your system seems almost extreme ;-) https://github.com/seccomp/libseccomp/issues/27

I see you have an App Market -- is anyone selling apps for Sandstorm, or are they all free? If there was a way to monetize, I'm surprised someone wouldn't invest the time to make Wordpress support comments and then sell it on your market?

To me this is a really interesting monetization model... can a few small developers write a Sandstorm app which potentially 1M+ users could one day be deploying and self hosting, while charging some nominal annual fee to fund the development?

When I saw the YC W16 startup on the front page a few days ago selling the pretty box to enterprises who wanted to self-host, first thing I thought of was Sandstorm. Why sell hardware? You are making the platform which makes managing the apps possible for 90% of businesses, that has to be where the value is.

Hi, my apologies. The landing page is being updated to reflect all the changes. But AntBuddy is a working tool with all the features I listed.
Thank you for your time. We'll focus more on the landing page.
You can create a prototype chain in Lua by associating an object with a metatable that has an __index metamethod. If the table that __index references has a metatable itself, the chain continues.

http://www.lua.org/pil/13.4.1.html

Importantly, `tbl[key]` only consults `__index` if `key` isn't actually a key in `tbl`, so keys in derived objects override keys up the prototype chain.
Wonder if they could use human stem cells on a matrix from a pig heart or something.
Hi, my apologies. The landing page is being updated. We've focused on the features of product and somehow neglected how we present it to world. We're still on the learning curve.
Thank you for your time. We're fixing these problems at once.
There has been 7 betas of 9.3 and an upcoming event was planned for new hardware, it doesn't take much to put that together.
>I guess my point is we all pay in, and we all ultimately take out of the system.

And my point is that young people disproportionately pay in a larger value and disproportionately take out a smaller value.

> You pay based on your own expected lifetime cost, which is increasing substantially for those young employed workers.

So would a person who would be expected to live forever pay all his income? If you are expected to live longer then you should be expected to pay for longer and not more per year.

This doesn't make any logical sense.
Array.prototype[0] = 5;
and make [] the same as [5].

Huh? I don't know what you mean by this.

In lua you can easily replicate javascript's prototype inheritance.

I'm curious how much work this is. Was the deer an existing character in the game that they repurposed via a simple hack, or did they have to model and animate the deer, write a bunch of AI for it, etc.
We plan to support paid apps at some point (more precisely, in-app purchases, which my friends who worked on Android say is far more effective than paying for the apps themselves), but haven't gotten there yet.
It sounds like he has no idea about the machine learning basis of Alpha Go (and therefore presumably any future Starcraft AI) and thinks all this complex decision making has to be programmed in by hand (which would indeed be nigh-impossible).
Nah, people were giving them another chance already. I for one don't 'hate' them, I find Windows (and Outlook and let's not talk about Sharepoint) not a good product and thus not worth the money and with them 'being evil', I did not really understand why anyone would use it. With all the open source and other good strategy decisions by Nadella I was changing my opinion some what. It seems they should take that all the way to make me (and others) to not frown when someone says they pay for their products. Still something is better than nothing so they did become less evil in some respects, however their open source strategy seems about getting devs closer again and devs are some of the only people who care deeply about patents.

Wait, I don't understand. If I create a relationship "User 1" -[:LIKES]->"Chocolate Ice Cream". Does the "Chocolate Ice Cream" know which users liked it or not?
AFAIK, AL asks confirmation only if an entry is related to -that- company/person/etc. You might add -your- project (i assume not related to your employer) some how as if it is related to your employer.
mnutt, you rock.
So, this appears to be iOS only, and makes this claim:

> Stop fumbling through different apps
> Have conversations that will lead you all to the same place.

Literally every iOS device on the planet has Messages.app installed by default, which supports sharing location with the people you're talking to. So what does your app do differently?

The claim about "different apps" (aka fragmentation of the IM space) is quite ironic, as you've just added another app to the pool.
It can quite easily protect against things other than failed ssh attempts - I used to regularly configure it to blackhole IPs failing to log in correctly to WordPress backends... Anything else the box does that uses some form of authentication that writes out failures to a log file can be hooked up to fail2ban.
I would emphasize that in general Graal isn't a bytecode compiler at all, but a general purpose compiler (somewhat like an LLVM backend) that compiles IR to machine code, and that Graal has two frontends: Java bytecode and Truffle.

Also, within HotSpot, Graal isn't necessarily inserted at stage 4; it could also be used in stage 3 (or even 2, instead of interpreting), it's just not recommended because Graal is a slow compiler.

Finally, Graal doesn't need to run in HotSpot at all. Another option of running it is in SubstrateVM, which takes your language's Truffle interpreter, Graal itself and additional Java code (we'll get to that), and AOT-compiles it all to a native binary (which then serves as a JITting VM for your language). If your language requires a GC, that additional code will contain a GC written in Java. I believe Substrate includes a simple GC, but you can write and use your own.
No. You should contact me if you want my business. That's how it works.
My local NPR station plays nothing but classical music. I think because it's the cheapest stuff to broadcast, just filler content. They do the news at certain hours, but most the time it's music.

It's a little unclear, but if I were to guess I'd say they meant the machines are located in China but have been zero day'd, then patched and root-kitted by the attacker, who was in the US (or at least not China)
Yeah in many respects it is a general use framework, but there are gaps. Build tooling and automation to deploy images and update service and replication controller definitions is an area k8s really doesn't cover. There are a lot of different ways to approach it, but I think some sort of "ansible for clusters" makes sense.
Ask HN: Alternatives to TinyLetter?
Basically, I want a newsletter service that is just like TinyLetter but doesn't output garbage HTML full of unnecessary `span` and `div` tags. (MailChimp is an equal offender.) Preferably the HTML editor would be just as friendly as the WYSIWYG editor. I am willing to pay.

To be clear, I'd prefer a service that is aimed at writing rather than links. (This rules about Curated, unfortunately.) Does what I'm looking for exist?
That's true, I should have added "unit composition" in there right after "army size"

It has always seemed to me that there is a truly "proper" way to construct an AI 'bot' for a networked game, and that is to write your own headless game client software that connects to the game's network—emulating the physics well enough to avoid desynchronization with one's opponent, but otherwise being entirely its own program, rather than having anything to do with the reference client per se.
The interesting parts aren't his views of AI (since he doesn't have much knowledge there) but rather his views on the complexities of the game. Because on that topic he is an expert.

The ground pin is not even used with the common two-prong adapter piece, though.
Ask HN: Are Adobe Acrobat updates a security hole?
tl; dr: It seems like it'd be easy to spoof a "software update" dialog, and thereby install arbitrary malicious code.

The reason I ask:
Very often, a dialog appears that says something like, "There is a security update to Adobe Acrobat...Do you want to install?" And if I say yes, the next dialog prompts me for my password (I'm on a Mac, FWIW.) and if I give it the password, it moves forward and installs the new software.

(The frequency of the updates also seems suspicious; I understand that pdfs are a prime vector for malware, though I don't understand why.)

Anyway, my main question is: How do I know that this is legit? Since I always have a browser open, it seems credible that someone could craft a pop-up window to mimic the Adobe Updater dialog. (I have a pop-up blocker, but imagine that it would be possible to get past that.)

Am I right to be concerned about this? And if so, what to do?

Forgive me if this is I naive question; I'm no expert about security matters.
I don't know why you wouldn't think he was serious. I think you are ignoring that the vast majority of people that use pot smoke it. In that sense, it's probably worse because most people that smoke weed tend to hold the smoke in their lungs for protracted periods of time which increases the amount of tar that gets in their lungs.

Probably related. Mammals dream, and we humans experience time in dreams much faster than the actual passage of time. Dreaming is likely the same mechanism as 'experience replay' used in AI reinforcement learning. We're just training our neutral networks using minibatches of our experiences from our waking hours.
Basically tooling that takes you from a collection of images and service/replication controller definitions to a running stack. The main questions we ended up trying to answer were things like: how many nodes in the cluster? What machine type? Which images need to be deployed and which tag of each image? Which k8s objects need to be created and what customization has to be done to them in the process? We ended up with a combination of make files and shell scripts that defined all these aspects of a specific running cluster, created the cluster, deployed the images, created the services, etc.
They don't need to drop what they are doing and go online and find the podcast. But they might do it later when they are home. The point is to spread awareness of it. Especially NPR's app, the listeners of NPR are the primary market for it, and now they can't advertise it to them.

The app will probably die without the ability to get listeners to use it. How many people just scroll for random apps in the app store and happen to stumble upon it? Instead of searching for it because they heard about it.

Say what you want about ending the drug war, but I'm not quite in support of creating a whole new tobacco industry.
My takeaway is that "Chocolate Ice Cream" would not know about "User 1" unless an explicit relationship "Chocolate Ice Cream" -[:liked_by]->"User 1" is created

At least half of the Forbes 10 richest got wealthy by starting their own companies, so I'm not sure your analysis is correct.
It's odd that for how much complaining happens about ads on HN, there's pretty much always just as much scheming about paywalls.

Ask HN: Is it possible Facebook might build a console to power the Oculus VR?
Or, the AI could be set up like AlphaGo was: as a computer giving instructions to a merely human player. I'd love to see what a powerful StarCraft AI would do if trained to "predict and compensate for" not only its opponent, but also the inevitable human errors in faithfully executing its strategy. A certain Sector Command and Control Unit springs to mind...
Looking at the bigger picture (if your intent is decreasing harm), I would work on limiting the alcohol advertising before trying to hinder the already limited marijuana advertising.
> Marijuana should be legal but discouraged, not permitted to be advertised, put in plain packaging, kept behind counters and not turned into novelty products that appeal to teenagers like foods.

All of these requirements are implemented in the Washington state roll out. Re: discouraged, there are radio ads warning parents to talk to their kids about the dangers of marijuana. There is zero advertising and everything is behind counters at special stores that don't sell anything else.

> Hard to see how it's much different to tobacco really.

Hey, why leave out the other big sin drug? Alcohol gets a lot more free roam in advertising and sale/visibility in stores minors can visit.
My 2c is that this seems like an interesting project, but at some point lots of important Ubuntu packages (especially daemons) will be rolling out with systemd unit files and so on, it will be a lot of work to maintain BSD init scripts. It doesn't seem like it will be so simple as running Ubuntu userland on the FreeBSD kernel.
Right. The only quotation is "I think maybe ten years," by Remi Coulon. Obviously the community was mixed. But if you believed the way the media has been spinning it, you'd think the computer Go community as a collective thought it would not be possible.

Otherwise, the opinions of human Go players at the time (that were not developers of computer Go programs) aren't relevant, nor is the opinion of a WIRED article writer.

Fools read and hear what they want to hear and then make something up and say that's what was said.

Tobacco - breathe non-air stuff into your lungs enough, it kills you.

Pot - breathe non-air stuff into your lungs enough, it kills you.
Don't take it personally, I'm not insulting you personally for having an obsession with reading the source code (I think that's great), I'm insulting everyone who is obsessed with the code history.

In science, reproducibility is what matters, not the history. Although if someone didn't tag the revision they used to generate data (or to compile and send to customers), that's pretty annoying.

I tend to believe it's tied quite closely to memory and emotional states. I had very bad sleep apnea that was untreated, and for the time that it was untreated my memories are extremely vague compared to most.

I also had very high anxiety which is completely gone now. Now that I use a machine to sleep my memory is sharp again.

I also eat much less now, so I believe that calories were a way the body would attempt to counter act the lack of rest.

These are just my thoughts, I honestly don't have any scientific background on it. Just my own experiences.

4 Reasons AlphaGo Is a Huge Deal
> But in any case i don't really see the issue here, if MSFT gets royalties from these patents it would be irresponsible (to their shareholders, and employees) for them to ditch them

So it's okay to shake people down over bogus patent claims, as long as your shareholders get their take?

As I said elsewhere in this thread, I really hate how people hurry to come up with excuses for corporations and their representatives acting like jerks. They can take responsibility for their actions just like the rest of us.

> Google owns countless patents and Apple just might be the biggest patent troll in history and none of them seem to receive even remotely the same amount of scrutiny.

Are you serious? Did you not notice the endless derisive coverage about slide-to-unlock, "rounded corners," etc, etc? Apple deserves and gets plenty of shit for its patent trolling. This article, on the other hand, is the first thing I've personally heard about Microsoft patents in years--I'm sure there's been other coverage, but it's certainly not as comprehensive as Apple's.
NAT doesn't provide security, and a ssh server isn't useful if you filter that port at the firewall.

i don't think that's how science determines if two things are the same. i think you just made that up because it sounds clever. unfortunately, that's not how things work in reality.

i also don't think you understand that you don't have to smoke pot. you can eat it. in medicine this is called 'oral administration'. you can't just ignore facts you don't like, that's not how medicine and science work.

most drugs are eaten. pot is a drug. you can eat it. you can use drugs to treats disease and symptoms. therefore, you can use pot to treat diseases and symptoms... by eating it.

i don't understand what your mental disconnect is, other than you just don't like the idea of pot, which is fine, but you should just say that, because then it becomes a moral argument, which is what you're trying to have, rather than a medical one, which is pretty black and white - pot is a drug, and you can use drugs to treat diseases and symptoms. that's pretty much a fact. again, i'm not really sure where the disconnect here is for you. this is a pretty simple logical chain. maybe you don't consider pot to be a drug?

i've never met anyone who doesn't think pot is a drug, but i suppose it's possible.

but really i think you just don't like the idea of it, which is a perfectly respectable opinion to have.
Right, the benefits of podcast over radio are easy to explain.

The parent post's point is not that it is hard to market over radio, but rather that it is hard to action on the advertisement, since the listener likely has their hands full.

It is a very precarious situation which I think extends beyond the marijuana industry, even in the US. What you said about China reminded me of the book Three Felonies A Day, which explains how modern federal crime laws put US citizens in a similar position of being extorted at the whims of the state.

It seems like there could be an opportunity for some kind of mutual aid arrangement -- an insurance policy of sorts -- that could underwrite the legal fees for a member who happens to get busted.

The pot industry exists and has existed for some time. Currently what is happening is highly fragmented tax-paying American outfits are replacing Mexican cartels as the production source, so that's at least a Good Thing. Even if it was legalized at the Federal level I'm not sure we would see a big-tobacco approach to growing pot.

Keep in mind this article is talking about growth of the state-legal pot industry, not growth of the overall pot industry (legal or otherwise) which I think must be growing, but more like at single digit percentage rates.
