Sounds like they're hosted entirely on Heroku and didn't want to go through the effort of adding external infrastructure. But I just found out apparently you can host Nginx on Heroku [1] which is neat, but looks a bit sketchy

This is essentially what I do.

I've deleted some of the questions afterwards, after receiving a lot of down votes or having it closed, but generally within 30 seconds there'll be a two line answer to a question that I spent several hours trying to figure out.

It's still an amazing resource, just a broken points/closure system.
I'll never use sendgrid with the horrifically complicated pricing schemes, do it like mailgun
This is the same question I ask every time I'm shopping for a new computer, where is my open firmware mainboard / CPU / no proprietary microcode / open source hard drive firmware / etc computer so I can actually inspect, improve, and trust the pieces I rely on every day for my work.

The Raptor Talos Workstation is the closest thing we have to a enthusiast car without wholly proprietary internals, which is just incredibly bad.
And more tools to prepare for/profit off it :)

I wonder then if you're suggesting that all discussions about the observation of impure intentions should be stopped? Did anti-universal-sufferage feel they were being accused of having impure intentions when they put forth their reasoned arguments? I think in some cases people are biased even when they come up with arguments they think make sense. I certainly don't think we should stop discussing those intentions.
none. I'm not sure what you think I said, but I suggest you re-read my comment and notice how narrow my point was.
Exactly what I thought
I seriously have no idea what her point is. The exact same thing (people having no idea what is going on, lots of them too afraid to ask) happened in maths and biology class. That is what tutorials were for.
Ask HN: Why is there no strict HTML 5 DTD?
Ran into an issue earlier today that, in a round about way, turned out to be due to Chrome automatically closing some unclosed tags. I admittedly should have caught it much earlier, but it did get me thinking - why is there no strict DTD for HTML 5? Couldn't find any discussions around this so was just curious if anyone here has some direct knowledge. Thanks!
Haven't you heard? Only noobs use tables. Also your design totally won't scale and isn't internet grade :)
Thanks after seeing its based on themis code that is itself based on Percolator the distributed transaction logic make sense. Any idea how it compare to CockroachDB ?

> They need treatment.

No shit. I think maybe you imagined I was saying something that I was not. My comment was very specific and narrow. Drinking away your money is not a rational decision, period, full stop, end of point. If you think that's a pretty obvious point, then I agree, too. I felt it was the appropriate response to the comment I was responding to.
I wish I found that before sendy

We have a similar initiative here in Minnesota:

I really like this idea and would like to see it come to fruition. It's a nice check on consumerism and planned obsolescence.
I'm a software developer, so I'm arguably a content producer. I have a 4 year old laptop that's still fine for software development, even though I'm using heavy tools to do it (e.g. Scala, IntelliJ IDEA), I only had to replace its battery.

Producing content doesn't necessarily mean 3D rendering. It can mean just writing Word / Excel / PowerPoint documents.
While in computer science I don't have an issue to learn stuff by myself. In math and statistics, I need the context first before I can grasp what a written text about math and statistics really means.

A teacher can fill this gap. Yes as a student, you should do your best, unless classes are splitted by level you will always get this tension.
Do you count size by the impact on the society or by characters count?
What's yours?
"Addressing systematic racism" is quite the euphemism for an outright racist policy, choosing winners and losers over what long-dead people with the same skin color did before we were born. The best way to "address racism" is to treat people like individual human beings with equal dignity, agency, and responsibility. The now-pervasive victimhood narrative is one of the most socially destructive forces in America. It's an us vs. them, rich vs. poor, black vs. white narrative that feeds on that insidious emotion, envy, and pits people against each other.

And there's this often-explicit assumption that the biggest thing holding back minorities is the white man. Nothing could be further from the truth today. The biggest problems faced by poor minorities are outrageous levels of violent crime among themselves, widespread illegitimacy, family collapse, and broken cultures that value the wrong things. Many groups have thrived against all odds throughout history, and they sure didn't get ahead with victimhood politics. The story of the Jews always comes to mind. Persecuted for over two thousand years, they not only survived but thrived in some of the most hostile environments possible, like repeated mass expulsions from different European countries, culminating but not ending with the Holocaust. When they got Israel, they quickly made it the richest, freest, and most powerful country in the region, by far.

I also want to reiterate my point from my earlier comment, which I don't think you responded to, that this kind of feel-good policy-making comes back to bite us. It hurts the taxpayer today by using up more of his money to provide the same service, and it hurts him tomorrow by obscuring what the real costs are and perpetuating bad decision making. The creeping inefficiencies become a permanent dead weight on our ability to invest elsewhere or weather a debt crunch.

If we want to have social programs that give minorities a leg up, then let's vote on those and forthrightly decide what portion of our national income we are willing to put that end. Hidden welfare for well-off minorities isn't the right way to do it.
Yeah same thought. Honestly Amazon announced the Echo about 4 months before this framework even became a thing. Personally think they should think about a different name, even though they're not in the same space, to make search, discovery and recognition easier.
Has anyone here worked with IBM before as either:
a) employee/contractor
b) Customer

And if so, are of those who would say that you didn't expect something so seemingly stupid to happen when they read that IBM was involved?

And do any of those people have any reason to believe that IBM managed this project well from prior experience?

I bet not, but lets see...
I'm not sure I would call myself an extrovert, but I definitely don't enjoy working alone in my apartment. For the past two years I've been working almost exclusively in co-working space and I'm really enjoying it. If there are some available in your area, I'd suggest auditioning a few of them until you find one that has the vibe you're looking for. For me, I really needed an open concept space with communal seating and lots of light, and the space I ended up has a pretty vibrant community. May need to just shop around a bit. Just an idea.
Oh man, this article was one of the first things I ever read about computer architecture when I was about 14. I had no idea Ivan Sutherland was the author until just now. It really stuck with me - I recall the bucket brigade illustration quite vividly whenever I think about asynchronous CPUs.
The main battery in most hybrids is on the order of 400VDC which isn't nearly enough to electrocute you in anything but ideal conditions. The real risk is accidentally shorting the battery which would cause it to explode.
Okay, I guess I just inferred more from context.

Nonetheless, I don't think the post you originally replied to was suggesting that spending your entire income on booze is rational, just some of it.
Sorry for the confusion guys but now I don't have an option to edit.
Last I spoke to Intel representatives, SGX enclaves couldn't be taken out of debug mode without having a contract and signing key from Intel.

In other words, those amazing applications appear to require Intel to approve the software author. Their keying mechanism allows revocation too.

I hope this changes or that the information I received was in error, but if not then SGX is mostly only useful for DRM. A shame because there really are a lot of productive applications.
I think there's a world of difference between the existential question of "what is a programmer" and the concrete question of "should SO allow yet another list comprehensions syntax question".

There exists a category of programmer who has so little knowledge that SO is not the place for them. They can be, should be, and are directed to Google and the documentation.
For all those who prefer w3m:

VACUUM is often not the thing that cleans up most bloat in Postgres. There is also HOT pruning:

https://github.com/postgres/postgres/blob/master/src/backend...

Separately, certain index access methods, most prominently B-Tree, support on-the-fly deletion of index tuples:

https://github.com/postgres/postgres/blob/master/src/backend...

Neither of these things need VACUUM to run. They can happen entirely dynamically.

An important point is that there are fine distinctions between the kinds of bloat that exist, distinctions that matter if you want to account how things work for the purposes of a technical deep-dive, but often matter a lot less in the real world. For example, PostgreSQL isn't overly concerned about making free space reclaimable by the operating system, particularly in the shortest possible timeframe.
What is the legal risk? With a zkp properly involved shouldn't de-anonymization be impossible? Or do you mean other risks?
I knew this article would be about Toronto before I clicked on the link. On a typical visit to Toronto, I will see more raccoons than police officers. The city is either over-raccooned or under-policed, depending on your perspective.
In earlier HTML versions "strict" did not force you to put in optional end tags. It simply disallowed some deprecated stuff.
HN should just let you post under Anonymous Coward. It would save so many people the trouble.
> I can assure that in college no T.A ever meant it as a form of motivation.

I (unfortunately) did this as a T.A. in college. Despite being well versed in the material and caring quite a bit about trying to teach I used the "this is easy!" line as well as falling into many other teaching traps. I think part of the problem was that I never had a problem learning the material (I came into college with a fair amount of prior experience) so it was hard to relate when people had trouble. The other problem was without being formally taught about how to teach, it's hard to get feedback on what's helpful and what's counterproductive. For instance, it wasn't until I took a class with my girlfriend that I realized how much I interrupted or talked over other students when they asked questions. Without direct feedback I would probably still be doing it.

So a random left|right arrow performs better? I wasn't really calling for 'racial profiling'; I was trying to convey that the use of a random arrow app totally removes human judgement no matter how flawed it may be. We need to address the abuses of people in powers of authority, but not remove the ability or tools to do the job they are hired for. There has to be some allowance for judgement without prejudice in perception. Yes, it sometimes results in ignorant and racist people making horrible decisions, and given too much power. We have to allow for some human common sense here, otherwise, bring on the robots and AI, and I hope they can achieve better (although, AI, or computational intelligence, is not at a level of a human's ability to synthesize untrained data into a 'hunch' or 'gut feeling' wired through experience). Regardless, I feel the whole TSA thing is a political charade, and this has been proven in the press countless times, and by the two times I forgot to remove my multi-tool from my carry-on before boarding, and it was not detected. I now live in East Java, Indonesia, and I am accused of having a 'darker than Caucasian tan skin colour.' who refer to foreigners (Westerners) as 'buleh'. I also awake to call-to-prayers each day, and hear it another 4 times in the day. Let's say my birth and upbringing in a predominantly Hispanic neighborhood, and now in a majority-Muslim region has even tempered my tolerance more than most average people in the world. Having lived in SE Asia, I can tell you that the level of prejudice reminds me of where we were at in the U.S.A. in the early 70s (Chinese to other 'dark-skinned' SE Asians, to white Westerners, etc...).
No it is not similar to Ashhley Madison nor panama offshore accounts.

It is similar to me dumping all HN users' personal IDs and addresses as well as birth certificates. Or similar to dumping all Irish citizen's driving licenses, addresses and ID info and linking them here on top.

I have seen HN crowd being careful for a single person's privacy just to keep his mood up.
I have had to teach several individuals.

There is a stark difference between someone being humble and saying they flat out don't understand vs someone pretending to understand/get it and then blatantly making a mistake that belies they really don't understand.

I personally would much rather teach the former.
It's built on Electron, same as Atom. Why is that disappointing though?

It's not a wrapper around a "web app". It does not load content via HTTP. It interacts with local file system and runs git commands. There are no "Waiting for gitkraken.com to respond.." type behaviors.

Like Atom, it works as you'd expect a "native" app to work. Things like responsiveness and right-click menus are identical to native.

I am curious what you think the benefit would be as a user if it was done natively?
"Uh, yeah. I was almost arrested for installing VNC on the school computers..."

Exactly. During my time, white kids were being kicked out of school for wearing trench coats (and getting their lockers searched). But race was never brought into it..and people don't really care because it didn't get you attention.

The issue isn't really sexism or racism. The issue is that many people don't really realize how abusive some groups of people really are....to everyone.

Back when computer science was an esoteric subject only studied by your stereotypical neck beard, most developers I met in college were not really interested in helping beginners, regardless of your race or gender. If you did ask a stupid question, it was often met with a condescending response and arrogant attitude.

The Internet made it better, because you could learn so much information, without having to deal with the crap.

Only now, that computer science is cool and anyone and everyone is trying to get into it for a high paying job, does the mainstream see the same issues that have been going on for decades.

It should piss anyone off that went through them years ago and nobody would listen..because they weren't one of the magical genders or races that instantly gets you sympathy.

On a side note, why aren't we going after the fashion industry? It's equally as abusive and if you are a heterosexual man? You will be pushed out pretty quickly.

Nobody truly wants true equality, they just want retribution for perceived injustices and the power to abuse others without any consequences. It's pretty evident from all these discussions.
I am saddened by Google's decision to cut off Boston Dynamics because it sends a negative message about the progress of robotics in the near term. I was hoping they would apply reinforcement learning algorithms from DeepMind to solve robot locomotion and various other robotic tasks.

On the other hand I am happy to see Amazon's Echo being successful and take that as a sign that at least voice/dialogue systems are going to improve by a lot in the near future, or at least that there are tons of funds to be invested in research.
I had no experience and I ended up interning at a couple good companies (Big Four) and ended up with a Masters degree and a great job.
To respond to your edit - tell me something I know about. Like I posted before, how many AES blocks can it decode per second. How many many NxM matrices can it multiply per second. How quickly does it match in a kd-tree. Even tell me that it runs quake at x fps etc. An abstract number (overall performance is 9001) is actually what the customer cares about the least.

I'm going to know what my workload is, or what to compare it to. If you don't know what your workload is, then you're likely a general computer use customer and don't have specific requirements.
Thank you for that out to me. I should have known better with my familiarity with mapping! Makes sense.
It's 2 images and a block of text and a link to guy's twitter and github accounts, we're not building the large Hadrian collider. It's probably more work to import all those libraries and deal with all that shit. The solution can really be written in like a line. This shit is why that left-pad scandal happened, programmers are too reliant on libraries for super basic functionality.
I get it that you may want to block certain people from bringing negativity to the community (via comments, issues, etc.), but how does preventing them from forking repositories help? It sounds anti-opensource.
i second that opinion that you're a white, and raise that you are a male.
This app would've paid my mortgage in some parallel universe....sigh
The point you're missing tho is that pandoras box is not a box of chocalates. You don't know what you're gonna get when you unleash a war--or a revolution. It says something about the ability perhaps to look at the actions of other objectively, but be blinded by either hubris or wishful thinking when evaluating our own actions. You're arguing that people don't see or agree with what is correct in the one view, but it the contrast not the correctness that is being highlighted.
Does anyone really give a shit that PG (or whoever makes HN now) is still using tables in 2016?
Serious (I hope!) question: how does one run the SSH client on the Chromecast? Are you proposing installing Linux on the Chromecast, or is this something available out of the box?

Totally agree with your point about HDMI, I overlooked it because my phone doesn't support it.
Interestingly, another approach that was seriously considered was to build a fake "Havana airport" in southern Florida and have the planes land there instead.

Much more straightforward code. Kudos!
>If you don't do the reading and study the material you need to know before the class it's covered in, then of course you won't understand what the professor is on about and of course you'll fall behind.

I don't think I've ever done this aside from explicitly assigned readings for something like an English class. I've always either found the explanations given in-lecture on a topic the first time to be fully sufficient, or had to fill in a few things by reading the book after class.
Oh you need a cryptographically secure RNG? Assuming the app is written for android just replace Random with SecureRandom. Here's your $100,000 invoice.
Yes I do, but the ideas/conversations have been happening, on and off, for many years before this.

Especially when they weren't doing so hot and the idea gets floated around (obviously without much serious thought, just something we say) "oh man, what if they just gave up on that part and used linux to make it all work" -- Then everyone goes "that'd be cool, but then all those apps wouldn't work..."

Hence why they chose this route which required some pretty fancy research on their part to implement. Which is even cooler imho. Probably the best senario for Windows/MS over all in the end.
That sounds like definitely TURKEY to me!!!
> What's wrong with just "plain old CSS"

Doesn't have namespacing and composability is difficult. It's a poor language missing expressivity. Javascript, on the other hand, has all of these. I personally just don't like inlining it because it looks bad in the Dev Tools and you can't simply edit a class and see the changes.
Hm, I don't believe any senior dev "suggested" a workplace out of bad/unscalable practices. And realistically, if you _review_ my code and give it 3/10, isn't that a judgement?

Part of the problem of bad code is solved by communicating as much as possible what is expected - so everyone knows what 3/10 code looks like. And importantly why 3/10 code is bad, and thus the motivations to create code that is 10/10.

This softer "reviewing" approach could definitely have indirect benefits on how criticism of code plays out. But if a workplace understands and practices respect, then everyone should be able to get on with crafting a healthy code base.

All this is underpinned by one important tenant of professionalism: good communication.
Fast food has some undeniable short term benefits, which the lizard brain considers more important than long term benefits. It's no wonder why a lot of fast food chains are massively profitable. The same can be said for walled gardens.
