It's annoying the media has not even focused on the cyberattack element in all this. The theft and circulation of private legal data.
That's been my experience. I appeal to a relatively small subset of women, but using OKC in a major city I was able to meet plenty of women in that subset.
This seems similar to saying to a drowning person, "I don't see how water is a bad thing."
Really nice, succinct notes here as well:

I think WARP is more like hardware thread, and one SMX is processing one particular WARP per clock cycle. So on any given clock cycle you still have just as many independent simultaneous control paths as you have SMX units.
> most people hang out with other people who are fairly similar in looks, style, ethnicity and income

Physical attractiveness correlates pretty well with income. I don't think people pair much with ethnicity these days, more with cultural compatibility. Eg: Muslims and Christians are less likely to mate than Christians and Atheists. I can imagine though that people reject other ethnicities outright if they assume a certain cultural background.
I had trouble with this recently. I wanted something that prohibited hosted copies and forks but was free in other respects. I couldn't find anything.
Ultima Online was the best (pre-Trammel). I've never seen so many elaborate and innovative scams. On top of that, you also got to learn how to avoid being robbed of all your belongings if you went to the wrong neighborhood.

It was extremely brutal since there was literally no protection of your gear. Not only could you lose all the items on you if you got mugged or killed. If a scammer, thief or murderer got ahold of your house key they could clean out your whole house meaning you would lose everything.

I hope to experience the same rush in another game in the future.
How is pollution, deforestation, increased ocean acidity and reduced biodiversity optimal conditions? maybe the consequences still seem low now but as these increase in the future you will better see the proportion of the disaster but then it will be too late.
Coming from an OO background the idea of hard-coding dependencies makes my palms sweat a bit. Your example is pretty simple and I agree with it but for objects/packages that are "reaching out" to the wider system rather than staying in their bounds do you not think this principle could create a loosely cohesive system? I would say that dependency injection isn't just about swapping behaviour, but it's about cohesion and bounded contexts and all that stuff that makes systems easier to reason about.
The first step is to realize that #1 and #3 are incompatible.

By definition, "open source" means people who acquire the software, including those who download it from its github project page, are allowed to use it for commercial purposes without paying for a license.

You cannot say that a project is "open source" if it has a license which restricts it to non-commercial purposes.
>>What men find attractive in women is primarily looks, but what women look for in men is a lot more holistic.

Pay attention to the looks on your female friends' faces next time they notice a muscular guy with a six pack jogging down the street and you'll quickly let go of this belief.
Communism is much more focused about workers and equality. Just providing the bare basic needs for everyone, without expecting them to work or live in a certain way, is a very different concept. What if all basic goods can be produced with hardly any human labour? A rich enough society can be so far beyond those basic needs that forcing anyone to work for survival can only be explained as a form of punishment.
That's the thing about real life interaction. She's now making a decision with more information than your photo and there's no lineup of photos next to you.

The articles point is that the longer you know someone, the less their attractiveness matters. I suspect that slope starts rather quickly.

I don't believe Tinder's elo ranking is used in any sort of significant manner within the app. Maybe it influences the order in which profiles are displayed but you can easily exhaust an geographical location of users. I'd be terrified if some of the women I'mean shown on there have elo rankings comparable to mine, not so much if the results are comprehensive.
I personally think we should not talk about Anthropocene, but rather of an "anthropic crisis" or "Holocene crisis", like other crises in paleontology (oxygen crisis, messinian crisis...)

We just have too little visibility to consider how the current state of the world will perdure in the long term. It can only be a transition phase, an event, not a period.
I wish I had these resources a decade ago when I was still in college. It would have helped immensely.
2012 and 2013 were very sad years apparently and we had to make it clear that you can't do anything to "fix" the net.
Petya Ransomware's Encryption Defeated and Password Generator Released
Ask HN: Who is hiring junior developers?
Going to agree with the_mutsuhiko and ask for a citation there. A woman who isn't as intelligent as she is physically attractive isn't all that interesting. And to be honest, after dealing with an ex-girlfriend of mine, I'd love to avoid people with self-image problems, drug problems, and staggering amounts of debt.
And then you get the permission popup each time you open the page? Seems needlessly annoying to me. Or only once? Then most users would not have an idea on how to revoke the access right. Uninstalling the application they installed for the purpose seems more straightforward.

Besides the permissions stuff giving a single browser window access to raw usb data seems also technically wrong. There are lots of reasons why we now have drivers instead of applications directly using the hardware like 30 years before. A driver or dedicated application can allow multiple clients (browser windows) to access the devices functionality. A driver directly embedded in a web page can't. A driver in the webpage even means that once you close that page the communication state between PC and USB device is in any state (can't see a way for automatically doing anything meaningful on goaway), so the only thing that could be done is disconnect and reconnect the device. So some further implications are: Multiple tabs for your web app are not possible. And even other stuff like Ctrl-R would not work as desired (disconnect device, reconnect device, wait, wait, wait, ...).
This page by Github has pretty good outline of different Open Source license options: http://choosealicense.com/

Lektor Static Content Management System Version 2.0 Released
the vast majority of ugly people are only 'ugly' because they're too fat or too skinny.

it's amazing how good looking your face becomes when you're in shape and have a decent amount of muscle mass with definition.
The decision was between Node, Qt, and Go. At the end of the day, we wanted the possibility to share code between the client and server and Go's server side support is much better than Qt's so we decided to implement it in Go. Go is great for command line tools and being able to cross-compile a Windows binary from a Mac is awesome. Go's static binary approach made deployment trivial in comparison to Node so that made it a winner :)
It's all about the Korean and Vietnamese on 99. Never have to go to the same place twice.
In the chart of trends in how people meet, there is a suspicious uptick in "at a restaurant/bar" in the last few years... that is totally just a cover for people who met on Tinder and then got serious.

They mention that Windows will still execute the DOS stub when it can't find a PE header. Is this still true in 64-bit Windows? I would think that the DOS stub would be 16-bit code, which is not supported anymore in 64-bit Windows.
One of the reasons why people give up coding
i say "hardcode dependencies" for three reasons:

- If you want to extract them out, it's safe and straightforward. Still a tedious refactor, but a safe tedious refactor. It's not any harder than injecting stuff up-front. Given that, why do the work now if it's not any harder to do later, and you may not need to do it?

- If you hardcode dependencies except for those you can't hardcode, that means that if you come across something which isn't hard coded, you know immediately there must be some reason it needs to be injected in! This makes reading code easier, since following this convention the code itself tells you how it's used, vs having to guess whether an injected dependency is actually necessary or whether it has just one instantiation and can be hardcoded

- You are already hardcoding all sorta of things anyway. The `Seq` object? The `String` type? These, and other things, can be injected in as params or type-params if we really want to. The question is then when do you stop and draw the line? You obviously can't inject everything. "Only inject stuff that needs to be injected" provides a clear, unambiguous guideline that applies equally to dependencies on your code, on the std lib, or on third party libraries
Very good. Every so often I get despondent about the state of the world; then I'm reminded that somewhere some bright Indian girl is figuring out how to build a fusion reactor from pigshit and string with knowledge she gained from sites like this. One can hope.
The revolutionary discovery is some ancient manuscripts. These manuscripts show that early Chinese philosophers may have argued that rulers should abdicate the throne in favor of the the one with most merit. Rulers should not pass the title to their children.
Not quite. All warps are running in parallel (otherwise you won't get the performance numbers) and each has its own control path (actually each has its own code) but, indeed, only one can execute control flow instructions at a time since the control unit is shared in the SMX.
Those guys are smart enough to play down their looks for good comedic roles. I've seen both when they are not in character, and they look like leading men.

I used to get paid to take portraits. I can guarantee some people just don't photograph well. They might be a 10 in person, but a 6 on film. I still haven't figured it out completely. I think current society puts too much importance in what a person looks like in a picture.

In two psychology classes in college, I was told people end up with someone who is attractive as they are, but where I live--well let's just say if a fugley man makes a lot of money, or does someting society affirms him for, he can marry/mate way out of his league. Sit in Mill Valley, or Tiburon, CA on a weekend afternoon and try to figure out what that female saw in that guy. (I'm just speaking for myself. I'm probally wrong. If I offended you, I'm sorry. I will probally still get hammered though.)

It seems to work in a contrarian way for women? I have seen women work so hard to have a powerful career, and money, and the guy is looking at the maid. I don't think it's fair, but I've seen it happen too often. (Don't beat me up over this last sentance--I'm probally wrong, and it's not the least bit politically correct.) I do see it changing a bit. Dependent attractive women are not as desirable as they once were, especially if they use their looks to get ahead, and the guy knows what she's doing.

I gave found the whole mating process screwed up, and steps we get to marriage even worse.

Using a one dimensional picture to weed out potential mates, seems almost as bad as bar hopping. At least with bar hopping, you could weed out the wrong ones pretty quick?
that's certainly how I install pip on a new machine
> GCHQ are not there to enforce copyright.

No, but part of their remit is to protect "UK plc", from cybersecurity threats as they relate to economic attack.

J.K. Rowling was (arguably still is), a huge economic force. Billions and billions in revenues over many years, and she pays tax on all of it as a moral obligation: no Panama-led duck-outs into trust funds for her, so far.

So, let's suppose you're one of the 4,000-5,000 estimated staff members at GCHQ. You are looking at a part of the dark web in an effort to understand if its being used to arrange illegal arms deals, trade child pornography or other criminal material that falls within your employer's remit.

You notice a document that reports to be a leak of the publication of this book. It's about 500 pages, and the first page reads OK. You talk to your line manager about it.

You and your manager are going to have to realise that the leak of this book could lead to a loss in tax revenue equivalent to the entire annual operating budget of GCHQ. If genuine, it could be a severe impact on GDP.

Do you want them to do nothing? Or do you think it should be escalated internally and dealt with appropriately, which is to check with the publishers if it has been leaked?

The tricky question becomes what would have happened if the editor had confirmed it was real? What action would they have taken? That's where it gets dark...

Does agile only work for Object Orientation?
Brian Marick was one of the guys that wrote the agile manifesto. He also wrote the "Functional Programming for OO Programmers" book, which has a lot of readers on LeanPub.

At the end of May he's going on "crusade" at XP2016 in Edinburgh, UK to ask what agile can learn from FP. He's got a lot of ideas, but he's looking for more, so please add comments/replies to his blog post: https://xp2016blog.wordpress.com/2016/04/03/crowdsourcing-a-topic-part-2/
Has anyone read this book? What’s your experience? Would it make an approachable introduction to programming for a complete newbie?
It's called `checkinstall`: https://wiki.debian.org/CheckInstall

This will be the most underwhelming leak unless the full leak database is released. Otherwise it just stinks of a political power play. I would argue that instead of signalling a shift in mainstream journalism it signals a shift in cyber warfare tactics/strategy.
I'm personally getting so sick of all the package managers I have to use, I'm more and more inclined to not use a technology if it comes with a package management system.

Seriously, what is going on with the OS vendors? Its like .. the Web came along and now nobody wants to build better operating systems .. shouldn't package management be a function of the OS? Its really just filesystem/tree management, and this really, really should be something we can use the OS for.

However, its just not happening. Language vendors have to solve this problem because the OS vendors are asleep at the wheel. I think its apathy - the browser has replaced the OS, and very poorly. Nobody wants to fix this problem, I guess ..
How the implementation of tr() looks like?

It's another time when I see translating functions indexing text by... text itself, instead of some kind of numeric ID. Since we're talking about performance, I wonder why people write it this way.

Is it possible to find your elo ranking in Tinder somewhere?
I think even in theory it's not awesome.

What is awesome is a system where everyone benefits when everyone is self-interested.
That's a good reference - however the drawback of comparing a GTX280 vs an i7 from the same period, is that now 8 years later the GPUs have scaled quite well for the same set of (simple) problems, with more units/bandwidth whereas CPU performance hasn't. The difference between todays biggest graphics cards and the GTX 280 is larger than the difference between the i7 from 2008 and the big desktop CPU from 2016. The "100x" is still a myth, but we are significantly closer today than 2008.
The Perils of May December Marriages in the 19th Century
This article conveniently forgets that US poverty is still incredibly rich by any other standard.

Nearly everyone in the US is just a different degree of rich - trailer park residents included.
>> What is the alternative? These people aren't forced to live there. If there were a cheaper, better alternative available to them, they'd probably take it.

What sort of lame excuse is that for exploitation? "These people could be much
worse off if they were being exploited more"? Well, duh. The point is that
they're in a dire situation in the first place because they're being
exploited. Their landlord is not some benevolent benefactor, he or she is the
purveyor of their misery, that's the only reason why he or she has a say in how
deep that misery is.

By analogy, imagine you grab someone off the street and beat the shit out of them.
You break their ribs, kick their teeth in, bash in their skull, but stop just
short of killing them. Then you go "hey, it could be much worse: I could have
killed you".

Well, yeah, you could have. You could also have avoided attacking them in the
first place. They're not "better off" thanks to you, they're much worse off than
they could have been because of you.
Your statistics are based on a dataset of like 5 famous couples?
I tend to read comments, and not articles - as a result, sometimes I wish that HN had a special `TLDR` subsection, directly below a posting, that used vote-based mechanics for the selection of a post like this.

I agree, and I don't mutate it, but my third party libraries and my collegues functions will. Not all of them, but enough to introduce annoying bugs.
ABC (Australian Broadcast Corporation) has a taxpayer funded show that explains consumers what their right are: http://www.abc.net.au/tv/thecheckout/

Its very entertaining and highly recommended. The first episode has a segment about people that rent appliances because they cannot afford them, and the companies that exploit them. Eye opening and infuriating.

The idea definitely works well as there are many websites out which sell such things individually or collectively.
Performance and quality always take time and money. It's pretty hard to convince management to actively invest in something that doesn't add features to the sales pitch. The argument that long term it makes it easier to build more features somehow doesn't seem to work.
Is that for large values of 1 ?
I'm very aware of that, as I have worked for a big corporation with such policies for normal users. However I believe that for them browsers which directly access real hardware will seem like an even bigger nightmare than users installing applications.

And you still have the question on how the web app comes to the user: Through a dedicated intranet site? Makes sense if more than one user requires it, but the effort seems similar as packaging a native application and rolling it out automatically through the ITs deployment system. If only very few users (maybe only a single one) requires that hardware both approaches have a high overhead and supporting the device will be most likely rejected.

Getting this web app directly from a third party site will be mostly out of question for the companies you are talking about. Besides the security implications then we also talk about reliability problems ("I can't use my USB device because internet is down...")
one needs to sample the original at at least double the final finished frequency, or the finished product will have a metallic tinge to it.

eg if 44,100hz rate is what you want to end up with, the sample rate needs to be at least 88,200hz.

C++ works with qpm, but it doesn't package anything in binary form. It just pulls down the source code from Github and generates some boilerplate to wire it up to the application project.
Qt isn't really C++-only anymore, at least with QML. Notwithstanding the use of JS for QML itself, there exist some bindings to QML in non-JS, non-C++ languages. So I guess there is demand for Qt (or at least some parts of it) in non-C++-worlds.

Scala allows you to restrict yourself to a much greater extent than many other languages. You could say use assembly for everything - there's nothing that assembly can't do, so in a sense assembly is more powerful than any other language.

For me the reasons I use Scala rather than Java/Python/etc. are the same reasons I would use Java/Python/etc. rather than assembly. To write code with the same guarantees as the core of my system would be theoretically possible in a "simpler" language, but it would be incredibly verbose: it would take longer to write and be much harder to maintain (because you'd have to keep a lot more in your head to understand each piece of functionality). If I weakened the guarantees (i.e. didn't keep track of as many possible side effects) I'd have a higher defect rate, especially when refactoring.

That's the small heart of a few projects, but I see a lot of merit in using the same language for your whole codebase: http://www.teamten.com/lawrence/writings/java-for-everything... . And Scala is actually a pretty nice language for one-off throwaway scripts where you don't care about tracking any effects or similar as well.
I've never used Tinder, but if they have an office in the EU, then they fall under EU Data Protection Directive, and hence they're required to tell you what personal data they hold on you.

I found this in an NPR morning show:

http://onpoint.wbur.org/2016/04/05/panama-papers-global-corr...

The part I have transcribed below starts at 23:29.

Tom Ashbrook (NPR host): "Gerard, why weren't there more american papers, more american news organizations involved in this investigation - New York Times not part, Washington Post ... not part of it - why not, Gerard?"

Gerard Ryle (Director of the ICIJ): "We found it very difficult to get major US newspapers or organizations to collaborate. I guess they feel that they are big enough on their own, they don't need to do this, whereas we found it much easier outside the US to get people to listen to this new way of working. And that's really,... it's been driven by necessity."

Tom Ashbrook: "Was it because you weren't prepared to share all the data with these papers?"

Gerard Ryle: "No, that's not the issue at all. We were absolutely prepared to share everything from day one. What we want them to do though is join the investigation with us and with our colleagues around the world and go on a journey together. So it's not like go at the very end and give them a fully made story - we make the stories together as we go along."
