I am an absolutist in this regard.

no one is an embezzler, conman or contract killer until they have been proven to be beyond a reasonable doubt by a jury of their peers, Until then they are innocent and any taking of their property it immoral theft.

Further During Criminal Proceeding a judge can order property secured, i.e if a person is charged with embezzlement the judge can order prior to conviction a bank account be frozen, this is FAR FAR FAR FAR different than CF.

Any Freezing of Assets or property at a minimum should be directly and irrevocably linked to a criminal prosecution of some kind

I see no reason the government should be allowed to cease assets with out even charging a persons with crime

I also see no reason why when those assets are seized the burden is upon me to prove my innocence

CF is an abomination of "Justice" is has no place in any Justice System, any defense of it is promoting unethical practices. Period, End of Discussion
I second that reference. Side benefit is there's compilers, useful code, and a whole OS with great docs to experiment with afterwards.

What's very interesting is that in most cases with either modern PCIe-connection based SSDs or multiple SSD drives, database performance has become CPU limited once again in operations that require multiple transactions. These chips surely help with the higher processor counts.
It would be trivially easy for an engineer to add a GPL-licensed dependency to a project without realizing it, perhaps via a transitive dependency, thereby causing the company to be in breach of the GPL.

If you don't audit, you don't know if you are in breach of the GPL or not. Your corporate counsel will want you to audit. You can't reasonably take any action, including open sourcing your project or even posting code snippets on a company engineering blog, until you know which licenses you actually use.

I agree re: PyCharm being great and comprehensive; atom currently can't hold a candle to all the features. VS isn't an option since I'm on a Mac, and I assume many people who occasionally / more than occasionally develop in Python are in the same boat. If nothing else, it'd be nice to have a second good option for IDEs. As far as it beating PyCharm...we shall see :)

What should be done is not exactly a secret and many things are commonly known to most people such as 'stop burning fossil fuels', the problem is not that we don't know what to do, but that the people in power don't want to do it because they are corrupt assholes.

I could assure you that even transcrypt cannot transpile Django.

It does multiple inheritance with a polyfill and overally is much more "fatter" than JavaScripthon.

But with JavaScripthon you can use any tool available in JS land to accomplish the same goal. Want to use Backbone's extend()? Use it.. want to use react's createClass() mixin?, the same

What's the plan regarding better documentation? That's the number one reason I've lost interest in Xamarin. Outwardly, esp. coming from a C# background, it seems awesome. Then you try to build something other than a todo list and you quickly find out how lacking the docs are. You might find a decent sample for Android, but then nothing for iOS, or vice verse. Forget about OS-X development, the docs are even worse when you get outside of iOS/Android.

I would reconsider Xamarin if the docs improved greatly. Maybe with MS involvement this will finally happen?

MS at this point would be better served by integrating React and React-Native in Visual Studio 2015 and Community. I know they recently came out with support for VS Code, but that's a different beast if you are a traditional C#/.Net/VS guy. From my experience with both, React is a pleasure to use, while Xamarin often had me cursing my decision to use the platform.

There are a wide variety of techniques. Some compilers use a single IR (intermediate language) as the input and output for each optimization pass. Others use multiple IR's depending on the phase.

If you have a bunch of optimization passes and each pass visits the entire program, the compiler can become slow pretty quickly. Also, there's nothing preventing passes from running in the wrong order, and they may have implicit dependencies that aren't well documented.
Similar to my reply to your sibling comment, this does not break down (from what I could see) whether the the goods were seized as illegal goods or whether there actually was someone to charge. Under critical examination, I don't think the number mean what most people assume them mean, especially in the following statement:

Among DOJ civil forfeitures, 88 percent took place “administratively.” Administrative forfeitures happen automatically when a property owner fails to challenge a seizure in court for any reason, including the inability to afford a lawyer or a missed deadline to file a claim. The seized property is simply presumed “guilty” without a neutral arbiter such as a judge determining whether it should be permanently taken from its owner.

All contraband seized at port without a clear attributable own or person to prosecute falls under this. All drugs and drug money illegally transferring to and from the country that were intercepted without someone present to charge (or that they decide isn't the owner) fall under this.

To be fair, there may not be a lot of information around now to classify these things correctly, but that doesn't mean it's okay to take the entire amount and apply it towards one type of situation when it obviously doesn't apply.
Correlation is constrained to 0 and 1 as a side effect of the mathematics.

Did you read my last sentence? The whole problem is that, despite consciously knowing better, programmers have a perverse urge, in the depths of their psyches, to make everything seem as difficult as possible. I can't think of any other reason why we still use camelCase, for example.

I think most devs prefer spaces to tabs (yes, literally typing in redundant spaces, while also losing some semantic content) Maybe it's because you always get consistent spacing that way, but maybe - just maybe - it's because of a puritanical urge to make programming harder.

Everyone in technology is aware of how important it is to keep things clear and simple, but deep in the soul, a lot of us just want to be Neo, typing bizarre hieroglyphs that only we ourselves are clever enough to decipher.

Postmark has a free tool to set up and monitor DMARC, which is another policy setting that can be used (if you own your domain) so that major email providers know whether or not to trust an email claiming to be from you. Postmark's tool lets you get digests and nice visuals of these automated ISP reports rather than you figuring out how to parse the XML they'd normally send directly to you.

Disclosure: I'm not at all affiliated with Postmark, I use their free tier transactional emails, and I use their DMARC tool.

The detached condescension is a nice touch and par for the course around here but I can give an anecdote that explains their value prop a bit better.

My sister has a grown Australian Shepherd with a Whistle tracker and she rescued a younger Aussie last year during the record cold spell in the Midwest. She didn't have a tracker on the younger one yet and soon after she brought it home, it bolted out the door into her fenced-in yard, jumped their ~4 foot tall fence and ran off. Her and her boyfriend spent 3 days searching during below zero weather until someone found it dead on the side of a road about 5 miles from their house.

If they had a tracker on their rescue it'd still be alive today, so feel free to mock "unimportant problems" but they often have important consequences.
That's odd, GMail is how I check to make sure I have DKIM setup correctly. Just send an email to my gmail account and check the message for "Authentication-Results: mx.google.com; dkim=pass" in the headers.

I'm also getting DMARC reports back from them for all my domains.
That's the thing -- lots of personable, well-adjusted people do all kind of weird things when plunked into that bizarre "microcosm" of human interaction known as the hiring process.
Like other reader in HN. I would like to keep myself update on latest tech news. However, I don't like keep reading feedly, flipboard periodically. And I would like to have something like that can run in background like a TV News Channel but showing what I am interested. So I made this and run it in a second screen so that i can take a look of latest headlines in office anytime. See whether it is useful to you (you can add in your news source) or free feel to let me know if you think of other use cases or suggestions :)

Every time this sort of hardware appears on a news site, somebody always chimes in with

Yup, tried to get a critical mass going here because, well, there are so many phrases that could be posted individually. I think we've proven that interesting phrases exist in code on Github, and now let's let people discover that on their own and free up space for other types of submissions.

I guess "avoiding bash by using python" counts as systems programming :-)
I used to be this way, but two things happened: first, I got married, which pushed my bed time closer to 1 a.m.

Then, I had a kid, which pushed my wake-up time to 6 a.m. (after several months of completely irregular sleep cycles). This resulted in me going to bed around 10 p.m. most nights due to really needing the sleep.

I'm still not a "morning person" now, but I'm comfortable enough with this schedule.

If you're interested in changing your schedule (even though it doesn't sound like you need to), I'd recommend slow changes. You can start going to bed a bit earlier (like 10 minutes) every night, and supplement with 2-3 mg melatonin taken 30 minutes before your desired bed time.

I've found amazon GPU instances to be really expensive (even the spot prices have been high recently), especially if you need it for longer runs for deep learning. The other issue is that the additional layers of virtualization create bandwidth overhead issues.

I'd like to see something in the cloud thats bare-metal / full access to GPUs (Maybe a good idea to start one). For scaling higher with a very large number of GPUs, you'd need Infiniband but at some point there is going to be a bandwidth tradeoff.

It would be interesting if someone could run some benchmarks of these instances versus a physical server.
Went ahead and downloaded Xamarin Studio for the Mac. Still has an "Enterprise Trial" button, and apparently I still have to login to activate it.

It annoys me to no end that I have to log in to Visual Studio as well (even Community) for it to even open a project, and I wish both Microsoft and Xamarin were more respectful of our privacy.

Show HN: Sketchpad – doodle with js
> What you describe is like constructing a house, then once it is constructed, specify it needs to be earthquake resistant. That should be specified as an upfront requirement not a story.

There's no law against writing every story with some NFR component, or interspersing NFRs with regular feature stories.

The process of writing, test-driving and accepting stories is a framework, it's guidelines. When I or other engineers see obvious architectural landmarks ahead, we often encourage the product managers to bring those forward.

A story can have user value, and it can also have business value outside of user value. One such business value is attacking architectural risks.

And sometimes you tell business "this unaddressed architectural scope is a big risk", and they say "OK, let's fix it".

And that is still agile. The point was never rejecting high ceremony in order to replace it with low ceremony. It was that professionals should talk to each other. Constantly.
I don't think they are aiming at us with that content, they are trying to tell their prospects "YES, WE USE SECURITY" in the most clear way.

I am a regular on HN and have a different impression, in that many people are much more critical towards MS while Apple/Google are generally the good guys. Apple is the savior of privacy while Google are the engineering wunderkinder. Even in the Xbox vs PS4 discussions MS is usually the bad privacy invading company in bed with NSA while Sony is the gamers best friend. To me it seems MS can do whatever they want, change as much as they want, they will never be "cool" while at the same time people gloss over Apples anti-competetive practices or Googles data collection obsession.

It being basic human decency is actually an argument against the GPL. One of the worst things you can do is make basic human decency a legal obligation. If every time someone did something nice for me, I was worried about now having a legal obligation to do something, the world would be a much worse place. Basic human decency should be freely given and freely received with no legal obligations. Let karma decide about basic human decency, not the courts.

It's not just that corporate counsel will want you to audit. I worked at a company where I found a GPL violation and wanted to comply, but if we started complying with the GPL it would have shown that we knew that we previously hadn't been complying, so I was told to not comply. Ugh. Just for redistributing a couple binaries, there were no libraries involved.
I don't think anybody ever meant to imply that pure functions can be composed in any order. That's the confusion here. "Pure functions can be run in any order" only means that they don't have side effects so one call doesn't impact another, but nobody ever meant or (hopefully) understood that to mean that the inputs and outputs of pure functions could be composed in any order. I don't even know what kind of confusion could lead to such an idea.

The conservatives say the bubble and crash were caused by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mack, and the Community Reinvestment Act. But at the time the bubble was happening, they said housing prices were just great, and it was the liberals who said we were heading for a disaster. Then, after the bubble burst, the conservatives changed their story overnight.

For a good discussion, see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Causes_of_the_Great_Recession.
That may be true, but it is irrelevant. I don't know why you believe that the technologies under the W3C web standards need be open. The standards themselves need be open (they're published, after all), but the technologies underpinning them? Checking W3C's website, their guidelines for implementations appear to be "W3C issues a call for implementations as part of standardization and welcomes public participation" [https://www.w3.org/participate/implementation]. Nothing in the formal standards process [https://www.w3.org/2005/10/Process-20051014/tr.html] appears to require all implementations be "open," and that assumption flies in the face of previous legacy standards (<img> when .gif was an accepted file format but still encumbered by patent, the <object> and <embed> standards that specify closed-binary plugins to side-load).

While it'd be nice if it worked the way you described, it seems that the standard as currently codified (including one specified "dummy" open reference implementation) is all that is needed.
Aggregation does not necessarily imply improvement.

Architecturally, it's quite worse than just putting lipstick on a pig - they're bolting a racehorse on top of their pig.

If you look at things just right and ignore the pig, you can pretend you're galloping around on an able horse. but, inevitably, both you and the horse will have to deal with the fact that there's a pig bolted to the undercarriage.

To be fair, that's more of a case for "GPS for Dogs". The use case described in the article comes off as quite a bit more frivolous:

> Whistle’s GPS Pet Tracker makes it easier to keep tabs on your pet’s fitness, with a collar that keeps track of steps. Know if your dog walker gave Fluffy a good workout, by checking in with Whistle’s connected app. Whistle’s activity trackers help you set your pet’s fitness goals, track progress and compare stats to other similar dogs.
If you go to a store and they reject your cash because it's too crumpled, you're probably going to start shopping somewhere else. Same logic applies here: cutting people off from your economy is bad for business. You only do it when it's worth it.
If I had to be honest I'd use either of them. I think they're both really well designed. I would not be against using Pycharm or Python Tools for Visual Studio since they're both really great pieces of software from my personal experience. However, Visual Studio would have the benefit of not running on top of Java which at times can either be slow or "fast enough." At least without proper tweaking.
