> My (uninformed) observation is that Elm does things the way Om (previous) did it: is that correct?

It's not, Elm doesn't use cursors and transactional mutations, I'd say the Elm architecture is closer to a pure single-store Redux: user actions are dispatched as Sub Action which are run through an update reducer (Action -> Model -> Model), which is then run through the view (Model -> Html) resulting in the new UI state.
>>Because large parts of the muslim populations live in places like Indonesia, Malaysia, India, Pakistan, China, Bangladesh - and from bird's eye - they don't seem to care much about sectarian struggles.

Not so much anymore. With the Salafists/Wahabis spreading their hateful agenda against the Shias in these parts of the world in a very big way, there are numerous incidents of mainly Sunnis attacking Shias and a little bit of the other way round too.

Not the real difference. Too bad most Muslims don't know their history well enough to understand how the Shia empire was first established and why.
"IMHO, members of HN are the vocal minority in their outright hatred for Trump"

Trump (followed by Clinton) is the most disliked candidates in (at least modern) US history.

A wrecking ball must be larger than the structure it demolishes. Throwing Trump or Sanders at DC is like throwing a pebble at the Burj Khalifa. DC changes politicians more than politicians change DC.
For me, Windows is the worst of them all. It's the one that's supposed to work on every machine flawlessly then you buy a new laptop with Windows 10 and it won't wake from sleep unless you open and close the lid twice and then when it does wake from sleep the wifi is broken and won't work until you reboot.

This was my experience on a new laptop from dell. And it's not uncommon, just go to the windows 10 forums and you can find people with thousands of hardware issues even on brand new systems that shipped with Windows.
I don't know I would go as far as to say it was masculine versus feminine -- there was certainly a place in Aristotle's ideal man for athleticism and prowess in battle -- but rather defining the boundaries for genetic competition as being equal parts smart, attractive and strong.

Also, as much as it sounds out of place today, classical (i.e. Greek / Roman) thinkers didn't consider women to be people - they were above slaves and animals, but it was in every way a male-dominated society.

Edit: Also, to continue along the lines of your hypothesis, too much testosterone in individuals may actually be a detriment to the society as a whole. While it may serve you well on the battlefield as nomadic raiders or hunters, that same competition can lead to an increase in internal violence that destabilizes the collective. Also, you wouldn't need as many children in a city as you would on a farm (free child labor!), so increased fertility just means more mouths to feed.

- they are not thinking about comparing it to something else like BSD, but to previous experiences of the same kind of product.

> reduce significant problems

Those voting for him aren't interested in reducing problems or fixing them. They gave up on that a long time ago. They're interested in breaking the system which gave birth to those problems.

Will Trump break that system? Maybe. It's a complex system and if he implements any of his wonderful solutions which he put forward so far, it will break a lot of eggs.

I'm not entirely sure breaking the system will be a net positive ... but I understand why people would want to vote for him. And it's perfectly rational for them to do so, if what they want is to break the system.

Regardless of whether the democratic nominee is Sanders or Clinton, _MANY_ republicans will hold their nose and vote democrat if the republican choice is Trump.

You can't say the same for Sanders supporters. Traditional liberals aren't going to vote Trump under any circumstances.
I think the strong principle of the court to hold to stare decisis precludes a dramatic shift one way or another no matter which ideology is nominated to the court. I personally would rather see an ideological centrist appointed.
Isn't people's fear that his admin would instead disengage from interventionism? Which is the opposite of getting into foreign wars.
> Arguably there are benefits to developing in-house expertise, and no better way to develop expertise than to architect and build a solution end-to-end

There are also drawbacks to consider: Those experts might just decide to leave and then you have an in-house solution that you have basically no chance to find experts on. At least with an open source solution you may have an easier time.
I thought he was a Libertarian, actually. I'm pretty surprised - I would have thought the proto-fascism of Trump would be poison for that crowd. Not that they'd be big Hillary fans either, but stuff like "hey, let's not pay our debts" or building walls or targeting a particular religion... that's not small government stuff.

I'd disagree with that assessment. It seems that Kabul had pockets that were growing into secularism. The country as a whole was not. Qandahar never had the dip into secularism.

Too many Westerners (my apologies if you are not, I am, and I see this contention that you have brought forth from many of them) read things about 'Afghanistan' that are really about Kabul. It's similar to equating New York City to all of America.

I got into studying FRP around 3 years ago for my senior project. Aside from a decent, clear explanation, there were hardly any actual implementations of this allegedly good paradigm (something Evan covered in his thesis, and the basis for Elm). It seemed like a paradigm that was full of promise and potential but failed to deliver in any worthwhile way.

(Such was the case for my senior project, studying the viability of Arrowized FRP in Elm. In short, I concluded that it was nothing but hell and nobody should bother.)

I am happy to seem Elm drop FRP, even if I wished it could be the savior of the method. At this point I think it's a troubled concept and should be limited to old theses.
This looks potentially fantastic. If I could beg one wish from the developers of this (and almost every other project anywhere near this space), though, it would be one tiny piece of documentation:

What's your unique ID scheme?

Let's say I'm willing to believe[1] that you've got Durable and Consistent down, once messages make it committed in to the system. What's the story for messages on their way in? My application logs are buffered to the local disk, now I'm streaming them into central storage, and halfway through a TCP connection that's shuffled 2mb of thousands of messages into storage, the connection terminates -- unexpectedly, midmessage. Could the service have committed more messages than it acknowledged? Or many less than I've sent? Both could be true from the network standpoint.[2]

So, what I need to know, and what should be very easy to answer, front-and-center in your docs, pretty please:

1) Where should my log uploader resume?

2) Is there any danger of repeatedly entering some lines?

3) If I have log lines that are legitimately duplicates, will they be stored at the correct count?

These are questions that may have a different answer than the durability after data makes it fully into the system. It also may provide useful information about how complexity the code in a submitting client is, because good answers tend to require some kind of ID sequence being assigned on submitting clients, afaict. And it's really just plain critical to sanity.

[1] well, no, I'm not, "trust by verify" in all things etc etc; but let's suppose that's more believable and something I have to mechanically verify anyway, and doesn't have an obviously observable boolean at the protocol level as to whether it's going to work well or not, and system internals simply don't have such a sordid history of being over-simplified until they're broken like client interfaces so often are, so...! We'll handwave that to a later and more involved step of quality investigation.

The way you propose, by vetting ads, has been used successfully

For businesses running large enough sites to operate their own scheme, sure. Facebook ads are pretty safe, for example. Unfortunately, this isn't a realistic option for smaller sites, and neither are any of the other things you mentioned in most cases. Alternatives like donations or PWYW have been tried and they almost always fail. That's why ad-funded web sites are still so common!

I don't think this discussion is going to go anywhere useful. You're objecting to a behaviour that is widely useful -- incorporating content served by third parties as part of a site -- on the basis that site operators with little if any revenue aren't operating to an impossibly high standard of safety checking at their own expense to prevent a small risk of third party malware being served by their site without their knowledge or consent. Furthermore, you have offered no plausible better alternatives for most of those site operators. In a world complying with your rules, most of the modern web doesn't exist, because no-one would "ethically" be allowed to contribute to it without falling short of your standards.

There's Typed Racket and Clojure's Core.Typed. In Common Lisp you can `declaim`/`declare` attributes to functions and values, and many implementations allow `declaim`-ing types. It's also common for them to propagate and check type assertions at compile-time e.g.

(defun foo (bar)
(if (numberp bar)
(car bar)
x))

should error out in SBCL because BAR is a number but CAR takes values.
Anonymous Takes 9 Central Banks Offline – Assault on ‘Global Banking Cartel’
I personally think it has to do with the low average IQ of of people inhabiting Muslim countries. I know it's racist and not politically correct and I am not about that, but Judaism starts out with the exact same premise that God created the law and he handed it to Moses through the tablets. Yet Jews have always held that humans interpret the law and therefore the law is under the control of people not God (despite even miracles and charismatic leaders that say otherwise), not God. Why is that. To me it's because Jews are smart and Muslims not as smart enough to understand that this is how it should be, that it's stupid for a plethora of reasons to think God created the law or God wants you to run the government according to his laws.

I'm not sure what is so wrong with this post. It's certainly more interesting than half the front page right now in my opinion. (To save you the pointless trouble, my account is 3016 days old.)
People who believe that killing is wrong engage in bloody wars. People call themselves pro-life but support the death penalty. Countries that claim to promote peace invade other countries. People say they believe in freedom and democracy and push a police state.

People go through contortions to square the dissonance between their ideology and their actions. Ideology serves people, not the other way around. At best ideology is a hint at what people are like. There are always gross contradictions between what people believe and how people act.

Ideology does not arise from pure reason, it does not spring from the void. Ideology does not exist on its own, only in conjunction with power structures; ideology is completely subordinate to physical power. Ideology does not create power, it rationalizes it.
Yes, and that might be because they want you to make a move on them, or it might be - like it very recently happened to me - that they just wanted to ask you for help on a side project.

Another thing. Do Uber drivers not agree to terms that specify that they are contractors, not employees. They may think that they should be classified as employees, but why does that matter if they made an agreement with Uber to act as a contractor. I don't see how they have any case for damages if they agreed to be contractors under their own volition.
I have seen so far a lot of claims about the current election proven false.

I think we are in black swan territory.
When I did the tutorials some weeks ago, I also had difficulty understanding Signals. In the time, it made more sense to me if it was called "Streams" instead, as I'm used to the concept of signals and slots from Qt, where a signal is an event that your widgets dispatch and slots are the functions that react to signals.

These subscriptions from Elm kind-of remind me the signals and slots mechanism of Qt..

There are ways to do it, and it is done regularly. If you have a badtruth that you want to share, you don't put it in the main article. You put it in a related article where it mentions the subject tangentially. It can fly under the radar of ideologues for a long time that way.

Honestly though, this isn't an astroturfing move as much as it's a defense against the people that camp on articles removing anything that they think makes whatever their political position is look bad.
I guess it depends where you work. Mapplethorpe is quite controversial, at least 30 years ago, perhaps not today.

When his show came to Cincinnati in 1990, the art director was arrested and the Contemporary Arts Center, the museum that brought his exhibit to town, was criminally charged with obscenity for exhibiting sadomasochistic photographs. The museum director received many letters requesting he step down from his position, which they kept all of these years and put on display last year in the reunion exhibit.

> No museum or director has ever been charged since.

FB's Open/R: A custom-built, extensible distributed network application platform
Note that if 'real' DMCA notices were to be the norm, then YouTube, by law, would be unable to give back access to materials before 10 business days expired, and only after receiving a valid DMCA counter-notice[0].

Compare this to the current system where they actually have the ability to evaluate the content ID notice independently and then make adjustments. They may not always use that ability, but at least they have it. With DMCA, their hands are tied.

Specifically, 17 US code 512 (g)(2)(C) (emphasis mine):

"(C) replaces the removed material and ceases disabling access to it not less than 10, nor more than 14, business days following receipt of the counter notice, unless its designated agent first receives notice from the person who submitted the notification under subsection (c)(1)(C) that such person has filed an action seeking a court order to restrain the subscriber from engaging in infringing activity relating to the material on the service provider’s system or network."

That's two full weeks (not including weekends and holidays), where even if the DMCA is clearly bogus, they have no choice but to keep the content offline if they want to keep their safe harbour status.

So it may not be the best system, but the DMCA isn't either.

That's an interesting article but it doesn't really point to wrongdoing by Clinton.

* Blumenthal somehow got his hands on classified info from NSA

* He pulled some of that information into an email to Clinton's public email address

* Clinton at that point could have classified the email herself, or not. The information was not labeled as classified in that email.

The question there is how did Blumenthal get his hands on that information? That means there was some unauthorized disclosure on the NSA's end. The only way Clinton would be on the hook for that is if she solicited that information or knew about Blumenthal obtaining it illegally.

The argument can be made that she should've recognized that the email contained sensitive information and should be classified. But it is not a crime for someone with original classifying authority to decline to classify something that was labeled unclassified when it reached their hands.
