The 'you can install linux, arcan and durden and then run normal applications' assertion is correct. That's how I am using it. The screenshots were taken on OSX because that was the only handy thing I could do the video recording on at the time. It's possible to 'test it out' with X/libsdl as a backend.

The actual setup is a bit hairy on most distributions because everything brings in X as a dependency, but I have both Alpine Linux and Ubuntu16.04 running it here without X (or dbus or pulseaudio or systemd or ...) Here [1] is some proof and [2] are my rough notes on how I did that.

The whitelist part is entirely optional, it's only there for really security paranoid stuff later on (sandboxing policies and chain-of-trust starting). ARCAN_CONNPATH=durden /some/bin style 'launching' is entirely possible.

The second to last slide goes into the relation with Wayland, but there will be support for connecting applications that speak wayland, and other protocols for that matter.

Hopefully sooner rather than later.
Notice how you substituted "crying" with "frustrated", and then proceeded to build your argument on that. I do get frustrated to various levels of degrees with all kinds of things (stupid bug in my code, people not putting away milk in the fridge). Do I need to cry every time? Hell no. And neither people around me. I've known some crybabies, but even they didn't cry nearly as much.
Of concern is that they are using a third party affiliate network. That means tracking and selling you.
Very neat! Couple of questions. What theme is that for Jekyll? It looks great. How did you get the related posts below the Disqus?

Oh yes. I run a image hosting service and adsense cant serve any relevant ads because the page hardly contains any text. The only text they identify is 'image hosting' and start serving ads to competitors T_T. My service has more information about user interest though based on topics and other user interactions etc but there is no way to forward these hints to adsense :(

Any tips on ad providers that support more explicit choice of topic per page load?
Yes please I would pay for that, great idea
I've never been hindered by Reddit's speed myself. Is this a real issue in other places?
So I was a founding employee at OnePlus, I've since left but I've seen both how Cyanogen worked and the efforts that went into building the Android team at OnePlus after the relationship with Cyanogen soured. And really, it seems the author is a bit naive about how many Android OEMs actually work.

Though I don't know about any revenue sharing, assuming it's there and that Google would take it away, would it incentivise faster updates? Definitely. Would it actually produce faster updates? Very much doubt it.

At least for OnePlus it wasn't a lack of willingness, prioritisation, or ability. Both the Cyanogen team and the Paranoid Android team, which got hired later on, are highly skilled and have a lot of experience.

Most of the time was spent integrating drivers from external providers such as Qualcomm and JDI. A lot of the time we were simply waiting for working drivers for the hardware we were using and other times we were waiting on bug fixes.

For the biggest OEMs such as Samsung this might actually help them prioritise as they have a more customised OS and as such might spend more time there. Though I'd wager a guess that the reason they cannot move faster is also due to waiting on 3rd party companies not affected by this ad-sharing penalty and that they have a hard time hiring qualified people who know the android system well enough to move things faster.
Yeah agree with that.

It's really interesting. It kind of turns your impulsiveness against itself, so your monkey is saying "Ugh, waiting for Facebook is boring, let's do something else."
It does - both this question and the original question imply something that's not necessarily true.

I usually open some time-wasting website when I'm waiting on some other tasks to finish and it's got so bad I do that even if the wait is <30sec, such is the addiction to these little useless rewards.

Now with a wait time on the time-wasting websites, maybe I could use this habit against itself and instead go do something else more productive while I wait.

"Background-wise, it is losely mentioned in a rather confusing article I wrote a few years back (search around for Retooling and Securing Systemic Debugging) as part of some thesis work, and later influenced on ideas presented in Voyage of the reverser by Sergey Bratus and Greg Conti, and on Christopher Domas work on Cantor Dust which also takes inspiration from Aldo Cortesis visualization works."
Well, I mean, I don't pay to use Reddit, and there's no such thing as a free lunch... so if this helps keep Reddit afloat, I guess it doesn't really bother me that much?
Will there be a point where the government will step in or is all of this tracking within fair use of non-logged in Facebook users visiting a website?

Sounds incredible. I'll put it on my to-blog list, if I get it to run at least.
The point is deep within the article and it's this:

We've heard reports that Google shares ad revenue with its partners—if a customer buys a Verizon Samsung phone, performs a Google search, and clicks on an ad, Verizon and Samsung get a portion of that ad revenue. So, penalize partners by reducing or eliminating that revenue sharing if they don't push out updates. If an OEM exceeds the curve and stays up to date, increase the amount of revenue sharing.

My understanding is they get ~$1 billion/year from licensing patents to Android manufacturers.

Anyway, I wouldn't count them out just yet. It took them 5-6 years to catch up to Google Docs and these days, I often consider using Office 365 because it's local AND syncs to the cloud automatically.

Taking a snapshot of a system before making a change and rolling back to that snapshot would be faster. In any case, a strong policy of only pushing changes to production that have been properly tested in staging will protect you the most.

This is one of those cases where it's the responsibility of the bug bounty platform operator (HackerOne) to ensure that its customer (PornHub) deals appropriately with bug bounty participants. If PornHub doesn't offer a clear scope and fair reward for effort, penetration testers may be disillusioned with the HackerOne brand also and choose not to partake in other bug bounty programs it oversees. And of course the platform cannot thrive without a large number of skilled and active testers.
How does the content of the article justify the dramatic title?
You unjustifiably dismiss champerty. Champerty is not merely participating in the financial outcome of another's legal result, rather it is participating in "the subject matter of the action." In this case, it's reasonable to argue Thiel is maintaining the suit in order to participate in the status or personal satisfaction of ensuring Gawker must pay a ruinous amount of money. In fact, that is the primary issue: that he is doing it because he personally doesn't like Gawker and derives personal pleasure from participating in Gawker's ruin. Champerty is, unarguably, highly relevant.

I agree that it's not vexatious litigation. Most probably the litigation already existed and was deemed reasonable as it proceeded to be heard.

Regarding your final paragraph, there actually is some question as to how many suits Thiel has helped support. If evidence were found that the common link was Gawker, that would heighten suspicion. Whether any of them were "bullshit" would be open for the asking. And even if they were permissible suits by the letter of the law, Thiel's actions could still be worthy of significant criticism and warning in regards to effects on press freedom.

A lot of the defenses I see for Thiel go along the lines of "but what he's doing is legal by the letter of the law." I find this silly, because most of the criticism in this situation is focused on saying that it's morally wrong and violates the spirit of the law, and might be a good prompt to ask questions about legal reform.

Absolutely. I once ran a community that grew from 5 to 50 to 300+ people, and had this utopian vision that moderation wouldn't be necessary, we were intelligent, enlightened people who would have healthy discussions and hash out our disagreements in civil ways.

Alas.
The landing video from the rocket[0] really puts into perspective how much this truly is 'rocket science'. They placed a boat 600km away in the ocean, and the rocket moving at 3000+km/h from 80-ish km up landed on it using some grid fins to steer.

I get how it works, how you can do it, but it's still kind of incredible that they actually have 3 times in a row.

Edit: it was 8000km/h at MECO, not 3000km/h.

a large part of this cash is from the tax not paid in countries in Europe, Asia, Australia.

An American Cash repatriation holiday is way overdue now.. Tax that should have been paid to other countries will get paid in US.

First: if you vote to do something illegal as a shareholder, then you can be held responsible. Even in a limited liability corporation. [0]

Second: it's not a company: it's a partnership, by my interpretation. By law (in all countries I know of) partnerships by default do not have limited liability. If you want limited liability, you're going to need to set up a proper corporation/LLP, file the proper paperwork, adhere to various laws, keep books, etc. Otherwise, in the US you are probably jointly and severally liable.[1]

The defense "The DAO did it" wouldn't work, since people are voluntary members of the DAO, and presumably voted/stayed in when it got to the point of criminal acts.

The legal system is not a machine you can bypass with magical internet code. (As opposed to a legal system as a Smart Contract running on Ethereum, perhaps.)

Nice first person view of history that affected me.

Early on, Common Lisp was a bummer for me since my underpowered Xerox 1108 Lisp Machine ran very nicely with InterLisp, but was slow after the Common Lisp upgrade.

I came around to appreciating Common Lisp and the first book I wrote, that Springer-Verlag published, was a Common Lisp book.

Except for doing occasional consulting projects, mostly machine learning and NLP, I am mostly retired now. In retirement I have considered going full circle back to Common Lisp for my own personal research projects but I am unlikely to do that because there is so much code in Java, Python, etc. that I rely on.

Almost every top level comment is very negative.

I just think the discussion now vs the discussion then is worth noting. People seem much more positive about jenkins just in the last few weeks.

Recently since it was integrated into Azure those negative comments have started to get downvoted, in favor of positive ones.

AH, the FIRST dream of any mod.

That said, moderation and moderation tools - especially on reddit, are evolving. To the point that many issues which I thought were fatal, are now manageable (such as permanent noise to signal ratio attenuation).

Unfortunately what keeps me up at night, is that the tools we are developing are straight up censorship bots and their proliferation on various subreddits, and eventually to all social platforms is beyond worrisome.

> Assuming insurance companies are profitable, insurance is a -EV bet for the consumer.

This isn't sweepingly true. Consider:

* two actors who are trying to maximize the rate at which their wealth grows (expected utility)

* they have the same risk preferences

* one has more money than the other

then it follows that there may exist liabilities that the wealthier party is willing to buy from the poorer party. Insurance can unconditionally make all parties better off.

The problem is partially on the customer side (and I am part of it): typically new Android is available first (or at all) on newest aka most expensive devices. I don't necessarily need the most expensive device on market and I accept being a bit behind (which usually has an added value of not being a beta tester with a bunch of stupid regressions thrown at you). So I typically buy a one-Android-behind device, with great hardware for half price essentially.
I'm mostly familiar with plastic molds, but for durable/production ready molds, you're normally starting off at like 20k per mold. You can usually bring your part to manufacturers (both CNC and casting shops) and ask for some quotes.

I bought a copy of Portable GUI Development with C++ and always liked how clean most of the examples seemed. I was so disappointed to never find an actual cross-platform C++ library that lived up to the book. Was the code pulled from an existing library, or was it just example code of what could be?

Either way, thanks. Your book helped me get started in C++ and today I'm still working in C++ and liking it more than ever.
I use LeechBlock for Firefox. It can either block sites, give you a time restriction for certain websites, or delay them opening.

This is fucking ridiculous. The guy has a bone to pick, he picks it. Outing someone is serious business, that is your private life. Who knows the kind of personal trauma he suffered as a result?

There are things about many people that were they to come out in a public, Googleable way, they would damage their career and relationship prospects permanently. How many careers have these kinds of publications destroyed?

That's why I side with the less-than-moral-but-not-illegal private behaviours of various people. The recent lawsuit filed by a confirmed prostitute and stripper(!) against a famous VC comes to mind. Of course, by the time he responded exactly in the manner I predicted (only a few days later), the damage had already been done. He had been removed from his partnership role at the VC fund.

This shit is serious and people play games with it.

There's nothing wrong with CNC for that type of product, and it is necessary as well. Many of the higher-end products in that market use nearly 100% CNC, whereas lower-end mix casting and CNC.

I'm not sure the quoted statement is fully correct, CNC and Casting are processes and each have advantages as well as capabilities the other cannot easily replicate. (Try casting threaded holes -- there are ways to add threading to a casting process, but it's not the same.)

I think the original quote intended to convey the following idea, instead of never CNC: if you have a high-volume product, while CNC machining can effectively handle shaping operations, casting will be less expensive for shaping in the long run, leaving CNC to more difficult to cast operations and final product fit.

In the camera market, there are tons of companies selling equipment in thousands and tens of thousands of units that are fully-CNC'ed and no casting. (See Kessler, Dynamic Perception, CamBLOCK, etc.)
Gawker are scum. They disobeyed a court order. They deserved the lawsuit. If you want freedom of speech to out people and attack everyone, expect people with money to use said money to fight back legally. It's their freedom too.

I'm not sure. Also from an NYT article:

Had that happened in this study, there would have been virtually no difference between the exposed rats and the controls.

Honest question because I seriously don't know: Is facebook really worse than google when it comes to privacy?

I kind of wonder who exactly are the people telling everyone to block facebook everywhere while everyone seems to collectively ignore google.

Google and facebook seem to both purposely ignore the known implications of their data collection programs. They likely have handed over data to the NSA, and we know they sell the data.
