I dont have access to python 3.5 but i tried above code with some modifications and it worked!

1. `while True` has no break condition and that intentional but `mt.join()` basically waits till all threads are completed? are you looking thread that keeps on running? i suggest look at daemon thread? if yes, check this https://pymotw.com/2/threading/#daemon-vs-non-daemon-threads

2. `return` & `yield from None` are not required! I had commented those lines, also 'from' is a reserved keyword
At that time no. Now? I'm not so sure. It is definitely something that not every American has been exposed to.
Fair use is not as straight forward as many people think it is. I remember having to grapple with it when I was an admin on Wikipedia as the only known, decent quality photo of J. D. Salinger was nominated for deletion.

I chose to keep after examining the arguments and applying my knowledge of U.S. Fair Use doctrine. Fair Use is codified in 17 U.S. Code § 107 - Limitations on exclusive rights: Fair use [1] - basically there are four things that must be taken into consideration; purpose of work, what it is being used for (e.g. educational use, criticism that involves reproducing part of the work), the amount that is used and whether it would impact upon the market or value of the work.

If anyone is interested, my reasoning for the J. D. Salinger decision can be found in the Wikipedia archives [2].

That's honestly why I've gravitated back towards physical media in many cases. Printed books and even DVDs these days. Sure I still use Netflix/Apple/Amazon/HBO to rent/stream things most of the time but if I want to buy something lock in is a problem. Most vans have DVD players instead of Blu Ray (for kids). The older I get, the more fun an RV sounds (especially as a programmer who can work remote) but the idea of streaming movies over my phone isn't really exciting to me.

If there was ever an example of why gatekeepers are a big deal it was this last stretch of confederate flag hysteria where Apple was going so far as to take down historically accurate civil war games. It probably won't happen often, but it made it painfully clear just exactly how much control a few companies have over the availability of things we want just by controlling the distribution platform. On the flip side though, I do have to admit that in the middle of that my curiosity and Amazon made it possible to find and order about a dozen books about the civil war to start my new hobby (crazy interesting stuff by the way).
What really impresses me about Viber is the way they went all out and splurged with an honest to god penultimate "e" before the final "r". Most dot-com companies would have settled for "Vibr", but they went the distance and bought an authentic luxurious vowel, precisely where it was called for, without going overboard and throwing in a sometimes-vowel "y" in place of the "i". Very bold and straightforward spelling, I must say. Color me impressed!
The maintainer of Amethyst is an awesome person too. Amethyst is honestly the single thing that makes OS X tolerable for me.

That said, it's nowhere near as good as a real tiling WM. There are still the technical limitations of the OS X system to fight.
Thank you Pieter for your work! Also, I wanted to thank you for your great and inspiring talk at Euro SciPy 2015 in Cambridge!
fee-for-service payment structure leading to perverse incentives

Wouldn't a single payer system make this easier to change? I guess there is a high chance that a single payer law might codify the payment structure and do it in a bad way, but at least then there is a clear path to improving the structure. Legislation modifying the single payer system to work better would probably be less controversial than legislation modifying our current system.

I'd like to see the tax advantages around employer health benefits disappear so that people have to take a nice clear look at just how much they are spending on health care, rather than just handing money to providers.

I'd also like to see providers that benefit from regulation be required to provide up front information about the prices of low risk services.
Boo-hoo, America. Your healthcare system exists to make people rich, not benefit peons like yourself.
It was a trade-off, whether or not is was worth it is hard to know.

It depends on whether you care about there being any new drugs developed in the future or not. ck2 is having trouble paying his current drug costs and would seem to be in one camp.

I can pay mine---granted, they've all gone generic---but with a barely, maybe, kinda treatable genetic in my case but generally common condition for which nobody has come up with a cure including an effective drug, I'm in another camp (heck, if new drug discovery had been shut down before the mid-90s or so, I might well be dead, or suffering enough you wouldn't be blessed with my contributions to HN). And as more and more people die due to antibiotic resistance infections I suspect more people will shift into mine.

Ditto importing from Canada, with their small market the easiest thing for drug companies to do is simply cease exporting brand name drugs to them so they don't suffer from re-importation and still have something of a new drug development budget.
i think by the sheer amount of funding that the prototype gear has been able to raise is a testament to the quality of the experience. the article also elaborated on why the quality is much better - "an optical system that creates the illusion of depth in such a way that your eyes focus far for far things, and near for near, and will converge or diverge at the correct distances.

In trying out Magic Leap’s prototype, I found that it worked amazingly well close up, within arm’s reach, which was not true of many of the other mixed- and virtual-reality systems I used. I also found that the transition back to the real world while removing the Magic Leap’s optics was effortless, as comfortable as slipping off sunglasses, which I also did not experience in other systems. It felt natural."

I am not sold on hololens since people who have tested it complained about the effective 'field of vision' which the experience applies to. see http://imgur.com/uCmWnis

Agreed. Even better than just saying so, it would be far more edifying for all if the person making the claim would justify it with reasoning as to why the headline is misleading!

Just using the words "click-bait" is even worse than a click-bait headline. In fact, it just becomes forum-spam.
Anybody who doesn't like the way Google is publishing this information through its browser is free to choose to use another one. Or to turn it off.

There is naturally a tradeoff between the value of this information for avoiding dangerous sites, and the risk that Google might be abusing the power that goes with its role in publishing it. At the moment users are mostly deciding that the risk is worth it.

If Google becomes obviously abusive then users will have to re-assess that equation. But it's the users' decision to make; not ours.
Thats the name of the game now. Class warfare and racism get clicks.

Your response makes no sense at all. It is not even clear what you were attempting to say.
I dunno, you have to look at the cost side of these things and I'm not qualified in this instance. AFAIK India still protects its handloom manufacturers which IMO is madness cost-wise, but of course there's merit into looking at it on a case by case basis. I think the trouble with protectionism is you might end up subsidizing an inefficient domestic industry indefinitely; and I don't think "reinsurance" is a valid argument most of the time (there's usually enough sellers whom you can buy from even when things are very sour, and not having lost money on inefficient domestic production will keep you rich enough to afford it when things go sour), the valid argument IMO is you want to have a Korean auto company and you doubt that the first few cars it'll make will be able to compete with imported cars so you protect it. But what made this work great in Korea but not so great in India (which AFAIK produced pretty bad cars for internal market under similar protections for many decades) I'm not quite sure.

Solar power is great, but it will not flood the Sahara and the Simpson Desert, nor pump gigatons of C02 from the oceans or melt the oort asteroids into giant glass ball habitats for the billions of earth creatures that will live there one day. For that we need something a bit more energy dense. When the first commercial fusion reactor is sold, the vast majority of "renewable" installations will immediately become redundant.
First off, credit goes where credit is due, that is great research from the team at Cambridge. If proven further, that evidence is sure to change every evolution course taught in the future.

For me though, that headline just killed the story. Come on Gizmodo. Find someone else for the evolution assignments.

I know it's a deep subject to wrap your head around, but you just can't say that human gills evolved from shark limbs. What should have been squeezed into the headline is this: our ancestors' limbs evolved from what were once the gills of an ancient species -- that eventually evolved into a thousand other species, but who most closely resembles our modern sharks.

"New evidence suggests that human limbs evolved from our ancestors' gills" is just as evocative, and has the nice bonus of not being a blatant lie.

Well, Clayton has grown quite a bit too. I'm in NYC now, but I visited some family there a few months ago, and the place has changed quite a bit. Lots of new developments and such.
This was also true in the not quite as oppressive (but still oppressive by Western standards) Eastern European dictatorships pre-1989. It's from a combination of reasons -- fear that graffiti/litter would get you in trouble and the fact that in order to approach full employment, many more people were involved in cleaning than under capitalism.
This would be a huge game-changer for freelance creatives.

Which is why it won't happen. It would kill all the industries that act as content farms, including traditional and electronic publishing, music streaming, and so on.

It's simply not part of the corporate world's DNA to allow, never mind encourage, true peer-to-peer disintermediated sales.

It would be completely practical now to build a unified global not-for-profit distribution and micropayment system. But corporate systems rely on introducing market friction so they can pretend to offer something useful as distributors and sponsors.

Taking that away and making it trivially easy for artists and creators to sell directly to audiences and users, and to self-organise into project-specific teams that would continue to be paid for work after shipping would be an unacceptable political shift.

The answers are not necessarily the same for all those, and for all future scenarios. The conventional answer today is that sport should promote, among other things, a healthy life. Taking large amounts of amphetamines is not so healthy, but some of the currently-legal ways that pro athletes prep for competition are also not very healthy, like the use of extreme and possibly dangerous amounts of caffeine in many sports. Maybe people will do more bike touring than bike racing because racing has become pointless and un-compelling to follow as a fan.

It may be that many professional and elite amateur sports will not survive genetic modification, for example, because anyone can access elite athletic potential if they wanted to. Or, more disturbingly, only if their parents had chosen a genetic combination for one outcome over another. What would be the point of "being a fan" of an athlete with characteristics chosen from a menu?
If you seriously believe this moderator was biased in his examples because that's his "writing style" but that he wasn't equally biased in his moderation, fine (I'd bet money on you being wrong if I could.)

Open sourcing the crypto code wouldn't be ridiculous, but pointless.

What I find ridiculous though was

>venders that don't agree to an audit should be considered insecure

The same thing applies to every single part of the application, but not equally. No attacker is going to start out by trying to break the crypto, unless it's obviously broken. "Normal" bugs are far more common and often more dangerous (Thing RCE, or in the case of many modern apps: XSS)

Ask HN: What are the forums interesting and meaningful discussion is going on?
I find some of the subreddits interesting and similarly, few people write good answers on Quora. Those are of the kind which makes you think and you feel, you that wasn't feeding junk-food to your brain (even if they weren't on the topics you are not consciously interested in).

But most of the threads on these sites are filled with junk (though I will be first to confess, I spend a significant part of my day browsing them).

What are the sites where a majority of items and conversations are meaningful and people are not replying just the sake of it?
Would you prefer USA Today, the "Cat In The Hat" of news sources because they sprinkle pictures everywhere so you don't have to read so many words?

That's fair!

But you need far more than just the crypto code to create a client, I think open source protocol specs would already achieve this.

And my main complaint was with the claim that open sourcing their crypto code would somehow make a meaningful difference to the security of these applications to the extent where you could consider all applications that haven't done so "insecure".
