Remember how Occupy America didn't have an easily articulated set of politics? It was mostly an expression of anger at the current state of things? I think this is something similar, an acknowledgement that things are fucked up but no knowledge of where to go from that statement.

That seems really similar to this. I sympathize with what I'm reading here. Trigger warnings, for instance, seem like a good idea: we do the same thing for our movies (Deadpool is rated R, maybe your kids will have a Bad Time) and our food (has tons of carbs! lots of processed sugar!). And I think there's value in giving people the choice in what adversity they face day-to-day if they're already struggling (people with suicidal ideation don't need a lot of exposure to more suicidal ideation).

OTOH, I really agree with what Wendy Hyman from the article says. When you bend that far backwards you end up on the far right, circumscribing what people can think or say because you think you know better. For instance, outrage/call-out culture has made it a crime to be called a racist, so now everyone doesn't want to talk about race for fear of being called a racist. But if we can't talk meaningfully about race as an issue then it won't ever be untangled. It's okay to be angry about this stuff but using that as a foundation to halt all discussions forever just guarantees that the problem won't go away.

My mom is a Chicano activist and she's always warned about what she calls the "más que tus": people who used their identities and politics as cards in a game of one-upmanship rather than as ways of understanding and ultimately changing the status quo. I'm worried that we're feeding that now in our search for a progressive means forward.

don't worry. they won't. take LA for instance. most parts of it look like a giant traffic jam. looking like a nice shopping mall would be a welcome upgrade. LA will never look as nice as Singapore. Singapore has a huge amount of surplus investment cash. LA's budget is constantly at a breaking point.
I used to work with a guy who bought veterinary antibiotics, cut them in half until they were a human dose, and took them whenever he felt a sniffle, and stopped when he felt better.

And he completely understood the concept of antibiotic resistance. He just gave a sheepish grin when I confronted him like "Aw, shucks, ain't I a scamp". He was a really nice guy, except for this case where he was a sociopathic asshole.
When in Rome (do as the Romans do). Bringing all your Android-isms to your iPhone app is going to be confusing and annoying to iOS users, just as if you tried to make a Mac application with menus anchored to the top of the application's main window. I remember when the shoe was on the other foot and people were designing big fat "iOS-style" Back buttons into the upper-left corner of their Android apps. Yuck! How irritating!

In a past life, I'd fight with the designers constantly about this. Users don't care "that our brand is consistently portrayed across iOS, Android and Windows Phone". Our app is one of hundreds on our their phones! So we need to conform to the UI patterns that they are already comfortable with (whether you think they are good or bad). Not to mention that using a standard UI element in iOS is three or four lines of code-behind, whereas building a custom control can be up to several hundreds, and is more likely to break the next time Apple tweaks its standard look and feel.

Finally, I'd like to see the results of the user studies Google did to determine that iOS users would be comfortable switching over to "Android mode" when they happened to launch a Google app. For a company that is known for data-driven decisions, surely they have numbers to back up their design choice.
Yeah I don't see why it would need a logo. Just write "curl" with some fancy font.
spot-on re USB = terrible (for typical embedded usage- derived clock, latency, fancy software/hardware stack support requirements. hardly a simple interface. not worthy of universality)
and of course, it's because of the phone SOC market...

basically the entire high-end of embedded has been taken-over by poorly-built linux distros running on phone SOC reference board designs...

as much as i'd love to support the 96boards effort, they are pushing us all into using USB for things like audio codecs... (i'll take TDM'ed I2S anytime, as at least there is a real bitclock as well as a frameclock, directly wiggled chipside...)
I read the thread, and it seemed rather cordial. Which message in particular?
"Utopia" is simply one person's idea of the ideal. If he's lucky, he'll get a group of people together to build that vision, but eventually new people will be born or coerced into it, and be unhappy with it because they would not choose such a structure.

Not to mention the fact that not a soul on this planet is capable of the foresight necessary to endure the changing needs of the people. We feel far safer keeping rigidly to the known doctrine, even if it makes everyone miserable.

Every single utopian vision is tyranny.
More and more, I find the current generation of far-left and far-right almost indistinguishable in their methods.

IMO, claiming that someone suffers from "internalized opression" is simply this new left's version of the "cuck" slur.
Pretty much everyone uses CDMA these days. 3G/UMTS and 4G/LTE are both based on CDMA, which transmits continuously, unlike 2G/GSM/EDGE, which transmits in pulses and makes the dit-dit-dit-bzzz sound in nearby speakers.

Edit: actually LTE uses OFDM, which is mathematically distinct from CDMA, but a naive receiver is unlikely to notice the difference.
Hi, thanks for your question. I'm going to cross-post this from a reddit comment that asked the same thing.

tmux[1] is oriented toward commandline users on posix-like systems. libtmux is a python library to help you script and automate tmux. it abstracts the concept of the server, its sessions, their windows and panes [2] into a herarchy you can easily navigate, even with a live tmux session.

I don't know if you use cli, tmux, or a tmux session manager (tmuxinator, teamocil, tmuxp) already, so its hard to tailor this answer specifically.

command line

a good deal of programmers, sysadmins, etc. use the terminal routinely throughout their day. some even go so far as to swear off a graphical IDE all together, and use screen or tmux with a combination of an editor like vim, emacs and others.

if you primarily use windows and don't use linux/bsd/os x terminal often, if you ever do, i highly recommend giving screen[3] or tmux a shot.

tmux

the benefit to using the terminal means tmux lets you do a couple things:

- split your terminal into multiple PTY's (panes) and windows, copy and paste between them. No GUI required
- "detach" the tmux sesssion, sending it (and any shells/applications running in the panes) to the background, and come back later to reattach
- it is also seamless to SSH into a server and work from there, since there's no GUI involved, you can use the same workflow on OS X, Linux or BSD machines.

I write in detail about tmux here: http://tmuxp.readthedocs.io/en/latest/about_tmux.html

tmux configuration

a good amount of developers use screen or tmux on a regular basis. over time, a variety of plugins have popped up. tmuxinator[4], teamocil[5] and tmuxp[6] (my own, written in python) being ways to load pre-configured sessions from a YAML file.

scripting / automating tmux with libtmux

so here is where libtmux comes in, it can be used to control tmux via python objects, which can be very handy in situations where you want to interface with tmux at a low level expressively.

it is possible to script things via shell, but there's no way to know the state or easily traverse through the tree of Server -> Sessions -> Windows -> Panes.

tmuxp uses libtmux under the hood a way to build sessions[7]. other developers have used tmuxp[8]* for scripting tmux to the workflow of their projects.

* note: I link to `import tmuxp` because the API would formerly be in that project for the past few years. libtmux decouples the core into its own library.

I alternate between thinking how great Wordpress is, and how it isn't so great.

Didn't they also do this before? I remember installing Fanboy's Social Annoyances List in my ad blocker years ago and never seeing those like buttons and social media crap again.
That's because in the federal government the average employee simply doesn't have the same amount of power nor leeway that a cabinet level executive would. For one, several cabinet level appointees have original classifying authority. No regular employee has that power.

A rank and file employee obviously could not direct anyone to set up a private email server for their correspondence or request that the NSA provide them with a secure blackberry.

> I find it hard to believe that in Washington DC, surrounded by people with security clearances, this was unintentional and just an accident. It's like Hillary had to look far afield to find people without security clearances so that they would set this up for her.

Clinton certainly was wrong here and people certainly told her not to do this. But I don't think it requires malicious intent, just someone not taking the rules/guidelines seriously and/or thinking they have more power than they do.

NARA compliance is something that many people either don't know about or are confused about at State department so I could see how some might not take it as seriously as they should.

I'm sure she and her inner circle rationalized away the security risk because classified materials are not supposed to be sent to public email addresses, there's a separate network for that.
I'm really struggling to see why you'd want to install this in your body rather than just having it on your person. Is vibration really enhanced by implanting it?

Also, this won't be you "closer to nature" because humans are not naturally attuned to physically know when we are facing north.

Perhaps more importantly, how annoying would this be if every time you rolled over at night, you faced true north and got a nice vibration to wake you up.

The article's point still stands though: sticking to a platform's design == jarring user experience.

Not to say that I agree that it's necessarily bad: his example of Word on Mac vs. Windows is actually interesting bc, given sufficient differences, users would have a hard time switching between the two if they own both platforms and the applications look completely different. I think it should be possible to retain certain UI paradigms (e.g. back buttons, toolbars) while staying uniform across all platforms in other respects.
That's why I say "postgres", not "postgre sql".

Sure:

- Reliability of the core service... if you receive inbound calls/SMS, you need to be available 24/7.

- Better/cheaper carrier integrations in more countries. Getting local voice/SMS enabled numbers in every country is a very manual process, you have to go to each country and negotiate deals with local providers.

- Better international routing

- In terms of the core products, features like Copilot, Notify API. Also voice features like conferencing are very hard to do well; Twilio does them well.

- Better fraud detection and prevention - see http://www.nytimes.com/2014/10/20/technology/dial-and-redial... for an example.
Never occurred to me to do this. That's actually a great idea.

TLDR: the article discusses a geothermal heat sink, instead of the typical evaporative heat sink.
I think the most accessible evidence for the likelihood of anything nearing a "utopia" is right here in the discussions people have about it. You have divisions, factions, "camps"...opposing points of view on this and anything else that human minds might ponder. As long as people are capable of disagreeing with each other, you will never have peace. While you might try to put constraints on how damaging a certain division might be, that form of control or "management" will only produce a feeling of oppression in those it would constrain, no matter how well intentioned. As long as anyone can feel disenfranchised or marginalized at any level (the key here is "feel", again, intentions don't matter), you have the seeds of rebellion.
Wordpress's success has to be down to it's ecosystem. There are other CMSs that are better targeted to more specific uses, but the amount of options and choices to a web designer with Wordpress are unreal.
>Agreed. These days, Identity politics is absolutely dominated by the idea that everything is just a point-of-view and ideas/arguments are inseparable from the identity of the person putting them forth.

Not at all. Identity politics is merely an "us vs them" game with identity only being used to call people sexist/racist/___phobic to force them to agree or be labelled a bigot.

If you're white and you support Trump you're a bigot. If you're black and support trump you're an Uncle Tom. If you're a woman and support Trump you have internalized misogyny. To people playing the identity politics game it doesn't matter what identity you have as a person because "you're wrong". There is no identity in which you can support Trump and not be "wrong" in doing so.

Once upon a time it was the Conservatives playing the identity politics game. Now it is the regressive left and oh boy did they tip the scale more than just flipping it.
git is not [necessarily] a backup.
The problem I have with wordpress - and any php project for that matter - is that I'm afraid of the code. I've done some template editing for WP and it already scarred me enough.

But maybe I just prefer writing and working in my own familiar codebases instead of spending a small amount of time in that of others, a curse that a lot of PHP developers have (the "I'll write my own framework / cms" curse)

Ask HN: Grandma's computer compromised by scammer, how to assess risk?
EDIT: I apologize for removing initial desc., I uploaded a document I sent to her son which explains, what i could grok about what happened. I edited the markdown file quickly and uploaded it to gdocs. I put bullets of major stuff. the public link for more info with some pics is here:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B3-pXTFbLBkHUldDQ1JVSnNvd00/view?usp=sharing

I apologize for adding link but this is a quicker explanation with a few images rather than max the char limit. Notable things:

* probably pop-up initiated 200+ redirects broke back button.

* she called scammers(decent/good job copying look of chrome maliscious warning except with phone number and login)

* there are 3 hours before i arived where she was speaking with them intermittenly and she downloaded logmein.com, citrix software and gave them full access to computer.

* phone num lead me to website which is now 100% gone and "alex smith" had a seriously thick foreign accent as she described it.

EDIT [2.1]

There was a dir called [sons name] on the desktop (she thinks it might have been there always but not sure) with:

* 5 year old full Experian credit report

* some old job applications(a super quick look didn't show his full SS but I only looked very quickly, did see last 4)

* info about a p&s of some land he sold.

and he got the job 4 years ago now. Is branch manager of a financial companies office. He is concerned his information could have been downloaded and he is at risk. Trying to assess what I should tell him. Downplayed risk a bit short term so he doesn't flip on his mom, but understandably he is concerned about professional & personal ramifications.

edit 3:

I called te non-emg police line(haha first time ever) and asked if it was worth reporting in case needed to build narrative for ID theft in future. They said to do ic3.gov.

>if you were really concerned about whether there was a gender pay gap, you'd look for the research yourself instead of waiting for somebody to hand it to you.

Are you seriously expecting people to fact-check every single broad statement they come across and then come to the exact same conclusions you did?

>It's not the world's duty to convince you of anything.

It's not my duty to find arguments supporting your cause. The gender pay gap is a myth anyway. I'm not going to tell you why - go to scholar.google.com and search for "gender pay gap myth debunked." Follow the citations. You should also do that if you're not sure if racism exists, or if other planets exist. Then instead of trying to one-up people on message boards when they won't do your research for you, you can lead in whatever direction your research takes you.

What I’ve learned interviewing 50 women about the work they find meaningful
I've used expensive ($1-2 thousand USD) compasses that work really quite well, particularly if you don't suddenly spin around. So the tech exists, at least if you ignore power and size restrictions and up the price range a little. I imagine cellphones don't bother to get a good compass.

External metals are always a problem, though. You can incorporate accelerometer data which kinda helps to protect against quick transients.
