> So long as you're just using LLVM-based compilers for both Rust and your other languages, you should be OK, but don't be surprised if you run into problems.

No. You can use the Go bindings to Rust's regex library where the regex library is compiled with `rustc` (llvm based) and your host program, written in Go, is compiled with the standard Go compiler, which is not llvm based.

This works because the Go toolchain knows how to link with objects exposing a C ABI and the Rust toolchain knows how to provide said objects. There is no particular dependency on llvm here.
> division in 1st world and 3rd world is schewed upon today

> Its akin to saying the N-word

I'm sorry, what?

How can you even compare these two things, I can't imagine anyone finding "3rd world" offensive (After all, you don't use it to refer to people... do you?) . Especially when it's objectively true.
How was the justice system able to communicate the shutdown order, but not able to communicate the request for user data?
And I'm sure we'll not grab the opportunity to use a descentralized messaging protocol. It's like people want somebody to exploit them.

End to end encryption in Whatsapp is extremely recent, I doubt the information the judge is after falls under that.
SJ people online deal with a constant barrage of threats of violence and rape - look at the crap Sarkeesian has to deal with - actual IRL threats to meatspace events. That's a bit worse than getting rickrolled with GNFOS.

That doesn't justify the nastiness of the SJW blogosphere, but it definitely explains it.
Hello!
Are you guys interested in recent graduates?
The web gateway is somewhat unreliable, and for IM purposes 'useless' compared to the MSNP gateway, which seems to be the main one used by official clients nowadays.

It has less documentation, but still is plaintext-over-TLS, unlike the legacy (and, arguably, less reliable as well) supernode protocol the poster has been reverse engineering for the past years.

SK is absolutely first world
Part of it is that regular people don't have a ton of exposure to this alleged bubbled. They don't have start up equity. Last time around the bubble caused the stock market as a whole to become overvalued. This time it's limited to mostly private companies.

Someone invested in a mutual funds or index funds will have pretty little exposure. Sure Apple, Google, Twitter, and Facebook might lose some value, but those aren't a huge portion of a diversified portfolio.

Even the first web bubble only had modest real impact on the general economy. It put the country into a shallow recession for a few quarters but that was it.
Maybe this isn't in the international news, but one of the prosecutors in this case specifically said they understand e2e encryption prevents FB/WhatsApp from handing out the messages but they want at least the IP addresses so those can be followed up with the local telco companies to identify who is the subscriber. It's business as usual and, AFAIK, FB/WhatsApp has been denying all requests equally. There was specific mention of "no cooperation at all" which would be a subjective statement saying the company is not willing to find ways to help this criminal case in good faith.

I think the term "in contempt of court" is what is happening here, although my vocabulary for law terms is limited.
I don't know about Brazil but these sort of things happen routinely in third world countries like India all the time because some judge could not understand what the new technology is. The decision will be reversed in one or two days.
> Nothing to see here

I feel like this is an overly dismissive attitude to have, even, or especially if, everything you said is true and this is some common behavior.
Because they ordered the shutdown to brazilian internet providers. These internet providers company block the access for Whatsapp services. And they are more than happy to comply, as they hate Whatsapp for taking their SMS revenue. But they are in fact only obeying an justice order.
>> on the verge of a coup

I was with you up until this line.
Which is the one that thinks increasing funding helps? Conservatives?
Brazil is a poor third world nation. It might be developing fast but still far from reaching middle income levels.
They can simply block network traffic. They don't need WhatsApp to shut itself for Brazilians.

Did Satoshi Steal My Blog Post?
Where does that list come from?
My guess is that if a mutable reference dominates the lifetimes of all its borrows, then an exception to the rule can be made.
Thank you very much for the information. I stated something without the whole picture, and a lot of people replied.

I will stand by my comment that Brazil is rather technologically advanced with respect to how net-savvy their population is. I wrongly stated that Brazil is 3rd-world... And as another user points out, Brazil "meerly" suffers from deep corruption.

However, in my defense, I shall contend that the simple existence of "favelas" in Brazil is perceived to be a very 3rd world to me, an isolated, white American.
What about it didn't you like? JavaEE pays well, but it can be soul sucking in its own way.
No, it's not "a few years". Cities act very quickly on this since broken windows make the dwelling open to all sorts of problems like animals coming in, people coming in (trespass, drug den, etc).
A lot of people wouldn't consider it reasonable to allow people to carry guns around, least of all on a plane.
Passwords have been interpreted to be testimonial because they require someone to tell authorities information in their mind. That is already a huge stretch of the 5th amendment. The purpose of the 5th amendment is not to prevent the collection of evidence. It is to mitigate the dangers of coerced confessions, which allow people to be easily convicted without evidence. It was never intended to be a general-purpose limitation on being compelled to cooperate in you own prosecution.
Minimalist work sample tests don't work. The work sample test is the test. There is no other criteria involved in whether to hire someone other than their performance on the work sample test. Otherwise it's not a work sample test; it's an intro.

This is a step forward for our industry. For those who don't like it, there are plenty of jobs where you can do the traditional whiteboard hazing.
Spoiler, I believe it to violate Betteridge's Law.
Are you kidding? It's quite likely she'll be elected. Her unfavorability rating from polls is very high, but Trump's is even higher. I'm not sure how Cruz's compared, but it's way up there too. The only guy who has a low unfavorability rating is Bernie, and it looks pretty certain that he's not getting the nomination nor running as an independent.

What's going to happen with this election is anyone's guess IMO. It could be Trump vs. Clinton, in which case Clinton will likely win (lower unfavorability). Or it could be Cruz vs. Clinton, which again probably favors Clinton (IMO, Cruz is far more dangerous than Trump, but that's my opinion). Or, we could get a brokered GOP convention and Kasich could get the nomination, and in a Kasich vs. Clinton fight, Kasich will likely win. Or, Kasich could get the nomination, Trump could run as an independent splitting the ticket, and who knows who'll win, though likely it'll again be Hillary because Trump/Kasich will split the GOP voters. Or Bernie could change his mind and run as an independent since the DNC has screwed him over so much, making a 3-way or 4-way race with a completely unpredictable outcome (though it might end up with the House of Representatives making the decision).
Clever (YC S12) - San Francisco - onsite

Right now the market for educational software is a mess. It’s incredibly difficult for developers to get their products into schools, and it’s even harder for them to scale. School districts spend tons of money on learning applications, but they have no way of knowing if students are even using the apps they’re purchasing. Teachers know there’s great software out there, but relatively simple challenges like getting 30 students logged in at once make using it impossible.

At Clever, we’re working to change all that. We provide schools with a free API and single sign-on solution that makes using educational apps a breeze. We’ve grown fast: after three and a half years, we’re moving data for a third of all K-12 students in America (20M kids), and 50,000 schools are using us to manage their education apps. Our goals are much bigger than that, though. We want to be two things:

-a single place where schools can easily integrate, manage and analyze all the software they’re using, and

-a single identity that students can use to see everything they’ve learned across multiple apps.

We’re a team of 110 (40 engineers) based in downtown SF, and we’re looking for engineers who enjoy working in (or would enjoy learning) Go, Node and React. More generally, we want people who are sharp, adaptable, and passionate about improving the way education works for everyone. In particular, we’re looking for senior engineers and engineering managers: empathetic leaders who are excited about teaching, coaching and professional development.

We’ve also just launched a new product for schools: Clever Badges:
https://clever.com/products/badges
http://blog.clever.com/2016/04/why-we-built-clever-badges/

Clever Badges is a new way for students to log into their learning apps in a secure, personalized way without having to use the keyboard. It’s designed specifically for younger students who struggle to remember or type text-base passwords. Instead, these early-education students can verify their identity by simply holding their individual Clever Badges up to their login screen.

Check out the other stuff we’re doing at https://clever.com/about/jobs, or check out some other recent press here:

If the institutions were fragile, the Internet companies would just refuse to comply and block WhatsApp. The fact that they complied shows how strong the institutions are.
Regex::new has these tools at its disposal: Pike VM (NFA), backtracking (NFA), DFA (online), DFA (offline), Boyer-Moore

The plugin has these tools at its disposal: Pike VM.

But yeah, killercup is correct. The DFA (online) is one of the bigger reasons. But the offline DFA and Boyer-Moore are probably just as important.

Why should that be any different? Signal and WhatsApp are functionally equivalent from this perspective. Both are end-to-end encrypted and therefore targets, and both are dependent on centralized, blockable servers and therefore vulnerable.
Indeed Telegram is not more secure than WhatsApp, but I usually take into account the position of each company and how that affects my particular use case.

South Korea isn't, but Switzerland and Sweden, by virtue of being neutral is a third world country in the original defintion: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_World

Because it wasn't an economic criteria, you've also got countries like Angola in the First World by the original defintion.
It could, but if anything was going to do that then Yahoo would be the best candidate and I don't see panic over that situation.
Your link provides zero details and makes zero sense. What costs $300? They don't say.

The issue, according to everything I've read, is that they have an AdBlue system but they don't inject nearly enough of it to keep emissions down.

>The reclaiming system would add to the cost of the vehicle, and operating it properly would also decrease fuel economy.

They have a reclaiming system (DEF injection). It does not decrease fuel economy. DEF injects urea into the exhaust stream to catalyze NOx emissions into N2 and H2O.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diesel_exhaust_fluid

>Because people want their cars to support their lifestyle, not vice versa.

Too bad. If they can be bothered to refuel their fuel and washer fluid tanks, they can be bothered to refuel a third tank too.

>The issue is not one of consumer trust. It's practicality. Gasoline filling stations are everywhere. Now: where can a consumer buy AdBlue or whatever the brand of urea is required by VW? No one wants a car that implies more complexity in their life.

BS. Go read the article. Lots of truck stops have AdBlue dispensers at the fuel pumps now. If consumers don't want to refill a second tank periodically, then they shouldn't buy a diesel vehicle.
Non-tech press outlet: "Uhh, it wasn't us, it was them."
Agreed with (b), we've gotten lots more consistent and turnaround on all the evals has improved substantially (largely because of the person you're all responding to).
Why would anybody pretend Brazil isn't poor?

Ok, we are not terribly poor people are starving around the streets, but salaries are very low, prices are very hard, wealth is very concentrated, and a huge share of the people live from government handouts.

That is not being rich.

IIRC The F-22 uses an array of 39 i960MX processors in each of the two Common Integrated Processor (CIP) "Super Computers". Each i960 processor has 30M Instructions per Second capability. I'm not sure the clock speed, but its under 100 MHz. Each computer also has several custom DSP processors.

This processing capacity could be replaced with a couple of high density MILSPEC FPGAs. Its likely they'd use a 64-bit PowerPC processor augmented by FPGAs. The combined solution would be flexible and probably offer 1000x what the F-22 (Block 5 airframe) went into service, at a fraction the cost of the CIP [1]

As for the reference to the $100 smartphone, the latest "$100" smartphones could probably handle MegaPixel cameras for Augmented Reality and with connected sensors, more commonly known as "Sensor Fusion" [2]

Note: A failure of a $100 smartphone doesn't usually result in a pilot pulling the ejection handles on a $185m (unit cost) fighter. Avionics has to meet higher standards. There are MILSPEC versions of some of these processors. FPGAs are available with MILSPEC qualification.

But, as it says in the article, WhatsApp just doesn't have the data the judge wants it to turn over. How does it make sense to punish a company for not doing something that it physically cannot do?

Network Status Updates – April 2016
You're right, it's the equivalent of a right handed turn in the UK.

Consider an intersection between two perpendicular streets that is controlled by traffic signals.

A protected turn is one in which the turn through the intersection and across the oncoming lane of traffic happens when the oncoming traffic (that is going straight) is stopped.

An unprotected turn is one in which the turn through the intersection and across the oncoming lane of traffic happens when the oncoming traffic does not stop.

In the unprotected turn's case, traffic going straight has the right of way, so cars wishing to turn must wait for a break in oncoming traffic, or for the signal to change. In either case, one car goes straight into the intersection and then stops and waits with its blinker on for a safe opportunity to finish its turn. If it is still there when the light changes, it completes the turn as oncoming traffic comes to a halt and before the sideways traffic begins to move.

Unprotected turns are usually done when both streets are not very busy or when one street is much busier than the other street. In that case the less busy street will have unprotected turns, because it means that there is one less signal during which the busier street is at a complete standstill (ie one signal for both traffic turning onto the busy road and traffic going straight across the busy road instead of one signal for traffic turning onto the busy road and another signal for traffic going straight across the busy road).

Unprotected turns can also work in on very busy streets (think traffic jams), because the streets are so filled that only one car would have space to complete a turn without remaining partially inside the intersection anyway. This allows the lights to cycle faster, since there are fewer signals per cycle.

The Los Angeles area is (semi-)famous for its many intersections with unprotected left-hand turns.
Thank you for the response and also all of your hard work in the Python package!
You are missing the most important part of the story. Facebook and Whatsapp are not ignoring the request. They have said that it is impossible for them to provide the information requested.
