If you have python-twisted installed, you can also use this one-liner:

python -c 'from twisted.web.server import Site; from twisted.web.static import File; from twisted.internet import reactor; reactor.listenTCP(4545, Site(File("/your/static/file/directory/"))); reactor.run()'

I was unable to watch HTML5 video using the `python -m SimpleHTTPServer`, but with twisted it works. Not sure why but it's somehow related to streaming content.
> This right here is why I think Rust really stands out from other languages. You can call it from other languages just as you can call native code written in C

Which is only true, when we forget about the history of computing before C was widespread outside AT&T and C ABI became a synonym for OS ABI.

Rust is great, and a very good step forward in terms of safe code, but lets not forget the ones that came before.
I've been saying that for about 15 years now, yet I'm still here. I've certainly looked around, visited a few places, went on some job interviews out of the area, but haven't been able to find anyplace that I felt I could call "home".
By some estimates the parts commonality is now about 25%.
Hard to tell if this comment is sarcastic or not
> As such some investors buy houses, then rent them to a single custodian who boards as many students as possible so they can attend the schools. These custodians don't seem to have a high priority on keeping the house in great shape.

This sounds like student housing in any major city.
r/news does that, I don't actually go on r/worldnews and instead just use r/news which has actually a decent variety of news from around the world sometimes, also there are people who work hard to balance off the racist and hateful comments for the sub

>It would be obstruction, not destruction.

It is obstruction in the same way that requesting a warrant before handing over evidence is obstruction.

Checkpad MED | Software Engineer | Freiburg, Germany (Onsite)

We're searching for a full-time Haskell developer working on web- and mobile applications for hospital doctors and nurses. About 70% of our code is Haskell but we're also using TypeScript, Scala, C# and Objective-C (moving to Swift) for web- and native mobile clients. If you've got strong frontend skills (web or iOS development) and like functional programming you'd probably also be a perfect match for our team. Please note that unfortunately we can only hire German speakers at the moment because we have not entered the international market (yet). More information here: http://cpmed.de/jobs/ . Feel free to talk to me at thiemann@cp-med.com

I had the exact same experience, around the same time. I just assumed I was a bad fit, but it would have been nice to know why. The company seems pretty cool, from what I could tell.
Errr, so now i'm wondering why everyone stopped caring about cost of living in 2015?
:)

It looks like they may have been super-concerned about water running out instead?
From my limited understanding of economics: yes. The reason is that lower income people spend more of their money on necessities, whereas richer people spend more money on luxury goods (things they don't need), and they could hence respond more to an increase in sales tax (that is, spend less as a fraction of their income). To reiterate, the lower income people can't spend less (they're buying necessities), so the increase will cause them to spend a greater total fraction of their wages. So, when compared to an increase in income tax, an increase in sales tax is theoretically far more regressive.

You are either a very small person, or you are not accurately counting your calories. The reason some people can subsist on less than the recommended caloric intake is that the recommendation is an average. If you are below average in size and/or activity level, then you need a below average amount of calories.
Just tax unused properties at a higher rate. Speculative investment wouldn't be as bad if they were rented.
Providing a fingerprint (identification) is different from imprinting your finger to unlock a device. It's been upheld in the past that passwords/passphrases used to unlock encrypted content are considered to be testimony (because it leads to the acquisition and collection of possibly protected "testimony"), and thus protected by the fifth amendment.

In my opinion, there is no reason to see imprinting your finger on a sensor used to unlock your phone as anything other than an equivalent form of "testimony", and it should enjoy fifth amendment protection. I don't think it will be long before this exact definition finds its way to the U.S. Supreme Court.

I believe TouchID is disabled after 48 hours.
I've been told that a lot of the hype comes from the hours of travel through Texas that you have to do to get there.

"It's like an oasis of dirty water in the sahara," a former Austinite once told me. I'm sure they were being hyperbolic.
That's a fair reply - thanks.

I still don't personally like it, but I'd say my bias is mostly that I am older and have kids...

I've been fucked over by so many companies in my 20+ years in Silicon Valley that I do not trust any HR team or "vision of a unicorn family"...

But I will say that this model would look ideal to any millennial person who wants to work at a "progressive" tech company/start-up

But said company shall become as ruthless as any as they mature.

Work is not your family. Either knock it out of the park, or get fucked. Success in our industry is binary.
I don't think I'm really paranoid about my personal information. I remember a time when everyone's name, phone number, and address were published in a large white book and distributed to every home in the metro area. I think a lot of the hyperventilation about that stuff is a little over the top.

However, I draw the line at biological data. That is permanent, irrevocable, unchangeable personal information that no one really has a right to. It's not like you can just go unlisted, change your number, or move to avoid the heat. It's a basic component of your being. That data should be closely guarded. It creeps me out that some gyms have started using the little fingerprint scanners to verify access. I don't travel that frequently, but I wouldn't get PreCheck because I want to keep that personal biological information private.
people with low incomes should be
able to live in the city.

Steglitz, Spandau, Koepenick, Lichtenrade are all in the city. And all have excellent public transport that gets you to Mitte, Prenzlauer
Berg etc in a few minutes. People should live so as to minimise commuting. Since most of those in the centre tend to be either well-paid or tourists, it's fine that they also form the majority of those who live there (either long-term or transient).
Hah, how true..
PreCheck line is almost always empty at my airport.
Android Browsers crash
I'm going to clarify that I'm not picking on you, but I loathe this attitude. I see it in Denver constantly. I moved here, but now we're full up. Ironically, it mostly comes from people that are transplants themselves. It's rather elitist to tell people where they can and can't live especially with the "forget you, I got mine" dynamic going on from the transplants themselves.
That's because it's sardonic.
Did any of those provide safety by means of compile-time checks (as opposed to sophisticated runtime systems, which are by necessity more expensive), though? AFAICT, Lisp didn't, Smalltalk didn't and Oberon didn't.
That scene from Pentagon Wars should be mandatory viewing for every student in systems engineering and project management.

It's always possible to craft an anecdotal argument to disprove a generalized statement. We were obviously dealing in apples and oranges here..

I was making a generalized statement that likely applies to a large number of places (but indeed not all places), and you were providing a specific but not really comparable counter-point in return.

So yes, we were both right, but then again I ask "why reply?" if you're not replying in a similar context.

That's like me saying "the oceans are vast and dangerous" and you saying "but a pond is relatively safe"... You're technically correct, but what does it have to do with my initial statement?
Once they can read minds, what then? And this isn't just science fiction; I've read reports that a persons inner monologue is soon to be accessible because when you talk in your head, it causes ever so slight commands to be sent to the voice box, which in turn reacts slightly. Not enough to produce sound or even be noticeable to a person, but which technology is being developed to pick up on.
Seems to depend heavily on the hypothesis that a carefully crafted message would sway an uncommitted voter away from Trump.

I'm not convinced that works. He has done a fairly good job of showing there's a strong correlation between "any kind of exposure, good or bad", and success.

You run the risk of doing the exact opposite of what your goal is.
Oh, and the breakfast tacos are terrible. :)
I think some would be able to survive even the danger of being a default sub, for example either AskHistorians or AskAnthropologists just straight up deletes any top level comments without a source and are very ban happy leading to questions with only 5 answers, albeit all of decent quality.
Just a quick warning: these guys wasted a lot of my time.
With 50k€ you can live VERY well in Spain, median salary is like 24k€...

It's not about what needs to be done, it's about finding reliable people to do it, especially when there's all sorts of opportunities for people to funnel it to a "preferred bidder".
To what end, though? So the mostly dead people responsible can rest more easily in an uncaring universe?

We may as well remember Lucy, the former vacuum tube assembler and current resident of the dustbin of history.
Justification of some truly abhorrent methodology aside, it's quite a stretch to call the people SRS picks fights with "the worst trolls on the internet". What are you alluding to here, gamergate? I'd think the GNAA would rank high above them.
Somehow I automatically got TSA Pre that last time I passed security and moved through the Pre line, which is much faster. I'm thinking to just get Global Entry which covers TSA Pre and lasts five years.
My nana tells me Cleveland is up and coming and that I should move back home. But Cleveland is a city that will always be "up and coming". Perpetually fighting the reality that they are one of the most average cities of all time. I love Cleveland and I am glad I was raised there, but I can't come up with a convincing reason to go back.
One time I went through, PreCheck was being hawked actively. Random people were getting automatic PreCheck allowances on their boarding passes so they could "try it out". Very commercial vibe around that.
As GP said, that's not true in general. Immunity is offered when the prosecution believes your testimony will result in further arrests or in prevention of future crimes. That circumstance is exceedingly rare outside of episodes of "24".

But it doesn't have to increase prices to the point of unaffordability, does it?
This seems like an interesting project to watch and I'd be interested more in it as A) Windows support gets better, and B) source is opened.

I'm definitely comparing to my usage of BitTorrent Sync today. I see in the FAQ a comparison for BT Sync a few things of interest.

BT Sync does have a more filesystem-like mode. (It's a part of BT Sync "Pro", if that makes a differences.) It's also scalable to available resources, although some of that through manual management of which devices are connected to a BT Sync share and which have which copies of which files.

Also, BT Sync Pro does support At-Rest security with some management. A UX for encrypted shares was added in recent versions of the software and it supported through some command line effort in previous versions. I've seen tutorials for setting up BT Sync "know nothing peers" on, for instance, EC2 storing encrypted blocks to S3.

very cool UI and concept. I love it. I think it would be cool to show the entire history of your selections to see where you start and where you finish. Nevertheless awesome work!
As a decently sized guy (6'3 ~300), my BMR is around 2700.. so it wouldn't be that hard to add 300 calories worth of energy expenditure, at which point I'd be eating below maintenance level.

Would depend on your height and weight I think.
Chance. It'll stop accepting them after 5 attempts according to other posters in this thread. Combine that with the fact you don't know if it read properly or not you really don't have good odds that you'll succeed.
RIP K5. Truly an American Icon.

Also

Nobody buys houses there anymore, because the bidding wars have gotten out of hand.

Nobody drives to work there anymore, the commute traffic is just too bad.

Nobody wants to work there anymore, there are just too many jobs producing competition for scarce housing and transit.
>"therefore other countries will stop respecting Estonian citizenship to maintain selectivity".

This has already happened in St Kitts[1][2]. They sold citezenship with very few non-financial requirements and now other nations have started screening travellers from there more aggressively, requiring visas, etc.

Stated intent is different than actual intent. I think it's interesting to note that employment is going up, while people state that they will leave in a few years. What does a few years mean - 2 years? 5 years? Wouldn't ones actual move correlate more with economic outlook than stated intent to move?
If we think about the future of technologies, I am pretty sure there is a bubble:

>As a matter of fact, as I write this, I think that may be the single most significant distinction between "conservativism" and "liberalism," as practiced in the US.

Ugh.. no it's not. That's a massive mischaracterization of liberalism. Liberals, by and large, do not think that throwing additional funding at things (for the sake of additional funds) will improve systems. It's an unfounded and cartoonish view of liberal policy.
What do you think of IPC ? in terms of performance and usability.

Perhaps Austin is in need of an influx of new people to fix the problems you have been observing?
Our sincerest apologies that things slipped through. We were able to identify you based on the description above, and I'll personally follow up in hopes of making amends.

Last month was our first time posting in the HN Hiring thread, and we didn't know how much volume we'd get. We responded in a very ad-hoc fashion, without implementing enough process around it. After some promising candidates came through the HN pipeline last month, we built out a bit more process for this month -- your feedback is very valuable and we'll do our best to prevent similar failure modes from happening again for other candidates.
SEEKING FREELANCER - Seoul, South Korea or REMOTE

Please email inquiries AT pilvy DOT com with your portfolio, GitHub, or anything else that showcases your work. Thanks for looking!
Except for TX, where it is always brown unless you water it excessively ala Los Angeles.
Nice writeup. I know people say not to focus on Wright's writing style, but he sure doesn't sound like someone extremely knowledgeable about bitcoin or cryptography. He sounds like he's writing an undergraduate paper. Given enough time, anyone can cobble together enough references to describe something accurately. But that doesn't read anything like https://bitcoin.org/bitcoin.pdf

It fails the sniff test for me.
Well, that was part of my job. In the defense industry, it is referred to as "diminishing materials suppliers" (DMS). When a supplier decided to stop producing a part, I had to identify an alternative. Sometimes it was a drop-in replacement and this was just a matter of ordering samples and testing them on our boards. Sometimes we had to qualify new suppliers to build our custom parts. Sometimes I actually had to modify the circuits to fit a new part.

Generally, near the end of production the program makes a final buy of parts to warehouse for "spares and repairs". The typical threshold is twenty years of support. If the spares run out during the support lifetime, it is up to the customer how to handle it. Sometimes we can cannibalize other aircraft, sometimes we repeat the DMS process for the parts we ran out of, sometimes (if the customer wants to keep the aircraft flying for a while longer) we do a tech refresh and design new replacement modules with current components.
