if you smoked a joint (or 6 joints, whatever) with no tolerance you'd probably just want to eat a twinky and have a nap instead of driving.

even if you didn't, your motor control wouldn't be nearly as impaired, nor would your mental faculty.

your judgement also wouldn't be as impaired as having a 6 pack of beer with no tolerance, making it even less likely you get behind the wheel while too intoxicated.

I'd call that a "false" equivalence, not a rough one.

You certainly can, just as you can pay anyone you want to have sex with you; but that is not the same as saying that prostitution is legal.
Dictators can run governments the best. too. The problem is they can be also the worst. And the whole inheritance thing.

Apple's problem right now is not so much Cook's objective qualities, but perception. And perception leads to positive feedback loops and self fulfilling prophecies.

If the market sees Apple as company in trouble, some part of it will also start seeing themselves that way. And the company will start behaving appropriately.
Sorry, that is just wrong headed.

What is needed is true error recovery thought, not syntax that encourages proper to just put in empty exception handlers.

Thanks for passing along the common term. I dropped that into a search box, clicked a few of the first links and...OMG, I think I need a shower now.
Uh, that's not how volume works. For one, because you'd be adding to it. But also: much of that volume is buying and selling of the same ETH.

Yes, they do have to go somewhere. There is a solution for this in the movie Soylent Green.
Presumably this might change depending on market condition. In my experience (in Brooklyn and Cambridge), when the market is soft, landlords are sometimes willing to split a realtor's fee, but when the market is tight, those fees are all on the tenant. Similarly, landlords vary incentives such as free month's rent and other freebies depending on how tight the market is. So, when the service opens in places like Dallas, the terms are likely to be different.

Around here, there's been so much construction at the high end of the market, there's not really a shortage of rentals if you afford the top rents. Landlords won't get bidding wars for that. It's the middle-income folks who are getting the shaft.

You know what's fast? Learning Ruby. You know what's also fast? Rails development!

I've tried Golang and played around with Node. They're fast, sure. The respective frameworks just don't compare.

Ruby (and Rails) scales just fine for 99.281% of things. You just need to throw money at it.

And that's a great thing.

A business's success will never depend on of the speed of a language or framework. It just doesn't work like that. What matters is how quickly you're able to iterate and evolve a product.

Ruby (and Rails' ecosystem) allows me to not have to reinvent the wheel for mostly everything. Authentication? Devise. ORM? ActiveRecord. Background processing? ActiveJob. Caching? It's there.

Want awesome front-end performance without having to basically rewrite your entire app and learn another framework and manage its dependencies? Turbolinks, and it has matured beautifully.

Basecamp has its performance anecdotes written in history that we can all reference. And Basecamp also has had great success.

Point being is that a business is a business. The speed of a product cannot and should not be blamed for how successful a business is or isn't.

I love you, DH2, and thank you Matz. I love you too.
The problem is that they wrote this in JS/node so it's using some sort of horrible bodged hack that interacts with the clipboard using ancient ASCIItext-only compatibility clipboard APIs.

It's also polling the clipboard on a timer instead of using clipboard change notifications, which has some relatively obvious implications for power efficiency on laptops, along with the ability for it to miss history entries. This is also a very dangerous behavior for applications that add virtual clipboard data - clipboard data is not guaranteed to be resident, so by trying to capture it as text you may be performing an RPC to the application that put the data on the clipboard and asking it to produce text for you. If the text lives across the network on another machine (this can happen :-D) you may be waiting a while.

HN Hall of Fame comment awards center stage.
"Interpreted language" is an imprecise term. A language is a language whether implemented in a compiler, an interpreter, or a REPL that includes a compile step.

JavaScript is faster than Go in some benchmarks, and slower in others. In benchmarks where it's much slower, the reason isn't that JavaScript interpreters exist. The reason is design decisions in the JavaScript language that make optimization difficult. http://benchmarksgame.alioth.debian.org/u64/compare.php?lang...

Someone familiar with the V8 compiler might correct me, but I suspect that the binary tree program is slowed by JavaScript object-property access always being a dictionary lookup. I suspect that fasta and reverse-complement are slowed by JavaScript's one-type numeric tower ... everything's a float.

D isn't going to happen.

Go is a wonderfully boring language. That's its technical strength and social downfall.

Rust is the anti-Go. It's an adoption cult with a good language attached.

Swift is pleasantly surprising me with its evolution and cross-platform direction.

I'd recommend Rust, Swift or Go in that order. Personally I'm most interested in Go but I don't think it's the most useful intellectual exercise or career move to learn it at the moment.
Is programming for me?
> Debugging, building, testing, packaging all seems pretty well handled.

Eh, debugging is a mess, at least on OS X. Rust advertises LLDB support, but it seems semi-broken. Listing source is non-functional and just setting a break-point requires a lot of hand-holding.

Upvoted. Running from source. Checking sources to see how to add more libraries. Hope we can use transpilers like coffeescript, truescript, scalajs, clojurejs and others to code on it. This looks like the perfect friendly Frankenstein monster to join all javascript modules and transpilers in one single running notebook.
Your last point is important-- I think too many people in the distributed systems / decentralization community rush to block chain as the one hammer to pound every nail. It's not. It's a solution to a very specific set of consensus problems but outside that it's not the best thing.

Yes, the team I work on has experience with both, and .NET Core is the way to go.

I work on RavenDB[0], a NoSQL database for .NET. We tried porting our database technology to Linux using Mono, and we encountered many serious bugs.

We have since abandoned that port and moved to .NET Core. It is successful, and we will be releasing that in the next major version of our software, RavenDB 4.0.

I was comparing it to Ruby.

Java has the bureaucracy I mentioned and that expresiveness you speak of is often the biggest creator of technical debt which specially shines when someone else has to work with your code and understand all your different abstractions.

As far as tooling goes, what are you particularly missing from the Java ecosystem? Honestly I have big gripes with Java's tooling, most important of all the language's hard-dependency on big IDEs to get anything done.

The wife and I run a small costuming page, and we get approached regularly by various nerdy publications. I only bring it up because their proposals always reek of the same nonsense as this author has endured in various forms. "Build your following!" "Reach more people!" Who cares? This is a hobby that occasionally makes us a little extra cash, we aren't interested in reaching a billion uninterested eyes, I'd rather reach 100 interested ones.

People aren't half as stupid as a lot of marketers give them credit for, and the vast majority can instantly spot sponsored content or it's cheap cousins. The difference is those kinds of people aren't filling out surveys so their opinions are under-represented.
That's because of the tiny liquidity. Nowhere near $120 million was sold, and it still lost 50%. Now try selling tens of millions worth, and see what happens.
So much this! I use a lot of audio programs, and this was the single most stable and solid version of MacOS X for my purposes.

You'll notice this does not pick models with far higher core counts. The per-core performance growth may have slowed, but it certainly hasn't stopped.

> Ruby's performance does matter. In 2016 you can't call yourself a language optimized for developer happiness when it takes seconds or minutes (in the case of some Rails apps - Hello routes.rb!) just to start up.

Don't blame Ruby for the complexity of Rails (to be fair, it's not just Rails - a large part of the problem is bundler which happily piles stuff in the load path that causes startup times that grow exponentially with the number of gems)
> I accidentally euthanised my father

Oh my god! That is horrible, and you are absolutely not to blame in any way. From the way you tell it, the instigator was the nurse. At the bed-side of your dad in a coma, you are in no shape to rationally process what is going on and grasp the full meaning of the questions; and in fact it took you years to "connect the dots". The nurse knows exactly what morphine can do and what are the limits on dosing; she had the dots all connected.

You must rid yourself of the every last trace of blame; to be caught in the flow of events does not imply being the root cause. Start by taking back the sentence I accidentally euthanised my father. It isn't true; you didn't do that, accidentally or otherwise.

Have a great day!
Sure but just do it with a huge cache. It's not about how to X efficiently but just that when you allocate a huge chunk of memory, the system will not see that memory until the interpreter terminates.
Revenue is an iffy yardstick anyway. If you're the only player who is squeezing blood from that stone, it is not to the credit of the other players that they're squeezing harder. Apple still capture almost all profits in the sector, they take the meat and leave bones to the others. If there were more meat, they would be taking it, but there isn't.

One unique factor about Pittsburgh is its academic presence, in both CS/engineering (Carnegie Mellon) and medical fields (University of Pittsburgh). At least CMU has spawned off a number of research startups, has created a burgeoning robotics community (NREC, etc), and has attracted major tech companies to create offices here: Google, Facebook, Uber, Apple, etc. I'm not sure you could say that about many of the other second-tier cities on your list. Human/intellectual capital is a big part of city momentum.
You're completly disregarding that timing is far more important than simply knowing that there will be a downward correction. The shorting fees will end up being consuming a large chunk of the profit even though you sold a hundred thousand ether coins at $11 and bought them back at $1.

"Professional" photography (especially for children / weddings) can be viewed in the same light.

I know many professional photographers, and with the exception of one who does a lot of commercial work (that requires probably $200k in lights, medium/large format cameras, backdrops, lenses, etc.) the ones who have been able to make a long term living out of it? They make probably half their income "teaching" their amateur competition how to do "shoot like the pros!"

They make a killing off of bloggers and amateurs (usually bored housewives looking to make some money on the side) trying to get started in the biz. People try to emulate them and their social media prowess, their blogs, etc. but what they don't realize is that all the blogs and social media presence are there for is to generate business from other photographers - they get their wedding business from established relationships with venues and coordinators because the customers that come through those channels are willing to pay 10x what someone who finds you online will.

So they'll charge $400 a head for a day-long class with 7-12 paying customers, and that's where the real money is. Privately, they'll admit to this: they know exactly what they're doing. When you're charging $5,000-10,000 to photograph someone's wedding, there's not as much margin as you would think: for that price, you probably need 3 or 4 additional shooters just to get coverage, and that means 10-20 hours of editing photos after the wedding. Those are all other people you have to pay, wedding albums you have to pay to get made because it was part of the package, etc. and by the end of it, they make way more money on an hourly basis off of the classes than they do the weddings - even at $10k a wedding.

So many industries that were "commoditized" have forced professionals to go the "seminar" route. I'm curious if software / app development is next...
Specific thought: Trait implementation pages like http://static.rust-lang.org/doc/master/std/collections/hash_... should output the first paragraph of the documentation text. That way you can easily scan/Ctrl+F through the documentation that's right next to the struct you're interested in. Reduce the number of clicks and context switches.

It's just a pretty terrifying way to output right now.
The only valid comparison is with a driver that is sober.

Having been on the inside, everyone at Qualys simply loved SSL Labs in the same way everyone else did. There's never been an agenda for it, only "it's good for security so we'll keep supporting it".

There's a funny story about how SSL Labs ended up at Qualys, by the way. After accepting the job (to do something else not related to SSL/TLS), I showed SSL Labs to the CEO, Phillipe Courtot. He loved it and wanted it. I offered it to him purely because I thought it would be too big for a hobby project; I didn't want a serious distraction from my day job :)
I think that the open source nature of this project would help in that regard. Since there wouldn't be a specific set of hardware tied to it like with the Echo and other devices, you could make a rig that only begins listening upon being prompted to by a button.
Is absolutely any server crackable?
Id like to know what are the main advanced methods of cracking a server, as a list, for the purpose of protecting our servers better. (ie. bruteforce, sql injection.. may not be that advanced ) For example, if i had a simple server responding with a static file on port 80 and strong passwords, would that server be crackable ? Some say firewall is useless, but assume everything had a basic configuration.

Im asking this question because I just found a cracked website that I use from time to time, its front page mentions the name of the team who cracked it. I searched the name of crackers and I found many other websites or pages cracked.

This website I accessed was one of those website with tools where you submit a domain and it gives you details about the website. The owner must have much more experience than myself, and Im not even sure if he knows. Maybe I should check again and try to contact him. I dont know how to offer rescue in such a case..
It could also be a feedback loop. Tall people are more successful because they are more respected/confident because they are more successful... So if the ongoing function is self-sustaining, that would make the question, what's the original impetus?

Take two identical companies in the same business line in the same jurisdiction. One got a less favorable interest rate on the same amount of debt, and also has a higher effective tax rate.

On a GAAP basis, these companies look very different. They should. They are.

But, to someone trying to compare different companies for purposes of M&A, EBITDA can provide a nice way to normalize these factors. Debt can be refinanced. Effective tax rate != current tax rate. And that's just the EBIT part of EBITDA.

You can't say EBITDA itself is not a useful measure. It is, when it's used properly and understood. However, I do agree with your overall sentiment re: manipulation. It's misused and misunderstood.
Impaired has meaning, there might be different levels of impairment and that is what worries me most. People vastly over estimate their driving skills when sober.

> people want to create a binary distinction between "public" [...] and "private"

Because they (me included) tend to believe that's how it works in reality - at least when the worst-case scenarios kick in. Something's either known or not, and there's a saying that a word spoken is past recalling (or similar idioms in many languages).

Social and legal norms may provide one with a recourse/remedy after the exposure, trying to compensate for the leak, create a chilling effect to prevent others from performing similar actions, and possibly limit the distribution of the leaked information. Nonetheless, chances are, it will already be seen (and copied) by many, thus effectively becoming public. Sure, sometimes data could get lost forever, with no public copies remaining, but sometimes it could rise to extent of Streisand effect as well.

So, well, I tend to believe it's a good idea to raise awareness that the only guaranteed way to not get burnt is to not share the sensitive information, at the very least with the parties you can't trust to handle it. And trusting any party must also include a consideration of the risks involved. This probably sounds harsh, but the idea of awareness is that it must be better be informed about worst-case scenarios and be safe(r) than unaware and sorry.
I wrote a lot of code with CodeWarrior. One of the things I miss most is the PowerPlant framework. Such a nice "forest" design with mix-ins. (Yes, you can download it, but it isn't the same). I learned a lot about designing usable class libraries by reading PowerPlant.

I learned a lot about designing usable class libraries by reading Microsoft Foundation Class libraries, too, but in the sense of "whatever you do, don't design !@#$% like this..."
