Now that they've started showing ads in the Instagram app, they want to make sure every eyeball looking at Instagram-hosted content is also seeing those ads.

They're no longer interested in letting content exfiltrate that walled garden because their owner's flagship product Facebook still allows that, and runs its own ad network.

Time and time again, a new service comes online, opens an API so you anyone can fill their databases with content -- and after a few years they shut it down. I don't even know why we still feign surprise.

What the parent is saying is that the client has to buffer the entire zip file before they receive the index and can begin decompressing it. "Streaming compression" usually implies streaming decompression as well—importantly because a non-negligible use case for streaming compression is sending streams of compressed data that won't fit on the destination together with the decompressed copy; or sending continuous streams of compressed data that could never reach the end to be decompressed. What the parent is saying is that zip cannot work for these use-cases.

I can see what this guy means because i basically procrastinated myself out of a degree once.

Sitting down to do study my worst subjects reminded me of how much less I knew than I needed to - so I procrastinated by studying my best ones instead.

That was definitely an anxiety thing, and some well time counseling might have been life changing. It's a different thing to your laundry though, which is probably more about wanting to keep doing reddit than wanting not do laundry...

There is nothing besides wanting to get to a better place (rather than fleeing from war) that makes people go all the way to Denmark.

The fact is that the second you are in the nearest country where there is no conflict you are a refugee from the war, but the second you move further you are not more an actual refugee of war but rather a migrant.

Now there are all sorts of reasons why we still accepts people as refugees rather than migrants but thats only because they didn't declare themselves refugees in some of the countries they came trough.

They don't have to because of Schengen which allow for people to move freely within the EU. The out borders don't work, so as soon as you get in you can move quite freely. This is what is being changed now that many european countries are putting up border patrol forcing them further and further back to where they originated from.

It's totally understandably why people want to move to a better place, just as it's perfectly understandable that countries don't want to let everyone in. Especially not the European wellfare systems which are quite lucrative.

> lenders don't have the same incentive as before to underwrite their loans. That is, it isn't quite as important to make sure their borrowers have a decent shot at repaying the money.

But the students' incentive to make sure they can pay back the money is much higher.

If you're looking to underwriters to keep debt levels reasonable, you are looking in the wrong place. In any industry (school, real estate, etc.), their max is far higher than you should actually take.

Time management counseling helped me a lot. The laundry example is a small one but often all those small things build up into a larger issue that consumes you, so it's worth treating those as important as any, unless it's just that one thing :)
Well how things would go if they went to court I have no idea. That's anyones guess really. But that's a different tangent.

All the questions you're asking are, essentially, what would be argued on.

But my point was that none of the involved parties can just indemnify themselves against any consequences. With sums of money like that, any of those parties could well be sued, and end up in court. You can't EULA yourself out of that.
Thank you for your valuable input. The problem I see is not in having 51% of the whole capacity of the blockchain, but of the smaller entities/organizations/contract codes. With the proposed simple contracts, the little 'start-up' contract codes with little voting power will easily get acquired by bigger ones, which then vote for a code change to pay out the remaining shares. This is much more realistic that the traditional 51% attacks. Letting the majority of a small DAO-like organization vote for code change (which translates to law-change) will not only be used to fix bugs, but to change the contract to the majorities advantage. This may eventually result in one single big contract code that incorporates every new organization on the horizon.

Scala Days Conferences 2016
We've all been fans of Ken's blog for years, so were thrilled that he took an interest in this project. Not only is Ken doing these amazing writeups, he gathered together the master restorers and engineers, some of whom worked on Altos at the time, who are now working on this one. Seeing them set to it, inspecting the Alto and figuring out what would be needed, was a real lesson in self-organization. I felt honored just to watch from the side.

We have two goals. One is to have the restoration chronicled as it goes along, in a way the HN community can discuss and participate in. Obviously we hit the jackpot there, with one of the best technical bloggers in the world.

The other goal is to do something with the Alto that the community will find interesting once it's running. A couple ideas are to make it fetch and render the front page of HN (we'd happily write whatever code was needed to serve it in a suitable format, since HTML is probably a bridge too far), or if we could find a second Alto to communicate with, play Maze War on them (http://www.digibarn.com/collections/games/xerox-maze-war/#ma...). But we'll be eager to hear any suggestions the community comes up with!
It's frustrating to see that people advocate to use programming languages in the areas where they don't belong just because those languages are convenient, have nice syntax, popular, etc. Go for example started that way but ultimately went to the niche of writing networking services where it shines. It's weird that languages with unpredictable runtime characteristics such as Java and C# are being advertised as systems programming languages.
When I tried to integrate iCloud with Core Data, it was one of the most painful coding sessions I've ever experienced. I never did get the edge cases to work, for example there was a part during init that decided whether to use local data or iCloud data that I never understood (that could have been due to the example I was working from). Conflict merging was a huge PITA so I ended up just appending both datas with a human readable separator and letting the user decide which to keep.

Honestly the whole thing was so gloriously bad compared with something like Firebase that I completely understand why Apple deprecated it.

The way it should have worked was as a virtual directory with a callback/event when users attempted to write data, allowing the app to accept, revise or reject the change. This could be done on either a first-come-first-served basis or consensus algorithm specified per-path. It could also be implemented as a nonblocking compare and swap (CAS) so that any contention would have to be decided live, and the user's event log would be stored locally and resume from the first conflict when the user reconnected to the internet. Unfortunately that requires a GUI working more like React that can update to reflect the current state (which most apps don't do properly, if at all). Behind the scenes, storage would work similarly to a database transaction log so it's always deterministic.

Apple should have then provided a paid service like Parse for apps that really need to deal with those callbacks in real time. Instead it feels like they swept all these details under the rug (which is impossible) so I never really trusted what iCloud Core Data was doing. I'm actually shocked that Apple went to the trouble of implemented iCloud storage without iCloud processing, but I digress.

P.S. Core Data is actually conceptually ok with its ORM and versioning. My gripes are with the needlessly complex way it interacted with iCloud.
Right, but both (a) and (b) do apply to the existing system where domain names can be traded. What Coase theorem says is that the resulting allocation will be efficient, regardless of how you do the initial allocation. I.e. it's irrelevant whether people pay squatters to get the domain names they want or ICAAN directly via auctions.

> The more intelligent and clever always benefit, because they know how to use the system to their own purpose. This has been so since the beginning. The less intelligent either end up in a position where their labor can be exploited, or they're left to slow decline or even death, depending on how much society values keeping them alive.

This is a very new situation.

A few generations ago, the smartest or the dumbest still ended up in the same roles. Sure, some people were more productive or slightly more prosperous but that was probably more based on how much land your parents had.

It's only in the last 100ish years where those differences started to matter and since WW2, they're starting to compound where the "cognitive elite" rarely interact with people outside their normal circles (defined by intelligence or socio-economics, which are often similarly grouped).

For example, think of the 10-20 people you spend most of your time with... other than family, I'd wager they're all in the same/adjacent industries; probably use their mind, not their back in their daily work; and economically are very similar too.
I don't know what your acronyms mean, sorry. If they are post-18 academic or technical qualification then they are probably quite useful. Someone who has them or does the hiring could tell you what they're worth.
This is very impressive. Nice work.

Upsource 3.0: Polyglot Code Review Tool
Currently I'm funding development from my company [1], which was originally funded off of Kickstarter and is now funded out of pocket until I can achieve profitability.

In the future I intend to tap in to crowd funding again, probably with a full robot as a development platform, and will check out grants and other sources of traditional investment.

I could use people, ideas, and funding, in that order. Funding is forever useful but I'm not willing to accept anything with strings attached at this point. I think I'm at a stage now where I've fleshed out a good enough basic plan that I need more people to work on it. I don't currently have bandwidth to organize much but I figure I will some time in 2017. For now I'd love to get a core group of people together to discuss the ideas, and see how we can develop it further.

The general idea is a zero marginal cost society. That is, one more day of society's needs can be serviced or produced at zero marginal cost. This would eliminate the need to work for survival as there would be nothing anyone strictly had to pay for. This requires that some technology be developed, and that a good reduced-consumption culture is fostered that values true freedom over endless consumption. The first incarnation would be an open source farming robot project that would allow small farms all over the world to support themselves with less of their labor devoted to farming. Millions of people could be freed up by open source automation they built themselves or purchased locally. Longer term this would be used to tell a story about how automation and openness can free all of us from the need to work.

Has anyone experienced poor usability if they search their own city? Load up the VPN and suddenly it works? I have a suspicion that airbnb likes to prevent airbnb strata-enforcers from searching the site.
I think all the examples given to the contrary are telling. its all about exalting handfuls of people who 'got lucky' or just 'have good genes' so they get to be the modern equivalent of gladiators. They are there to distract the average joe, and its very effective.

All while, Intellectuals as a group rake in huge amounts of money and power by hooking each other up. We all 'know' that people with college educations have more credibility, respect and influence. The figures thrown around about athletes are pennies, and the token media coverage is meaningless.

As I said above athletes and musicians are the modern equivalent to gladiators. Are/were they popular? sure. But they essentially function as a distraction.
Whether the random number is pulled before the hearing (picking just 1 judge instead of 3) or after (by picking one vote token at random) seems the same to me.

I think it's less about providing bulletproof advice and about reflecting on your own experiences.

The children would have experienced the outcomes most of what the letter describes, it's just filling in the blanks.

Most people see their own upbringing as an ideal to follow so this is giving a rule book on how to do that.

Python library for accurate and scaleable deduplication and entity-resolution
Some years ago I was in Boston. Walking through a park somewhere near the Boston Park Plaza hotel, or Legal Seafoods, on a sunny afternoon, I saw a large man with a bald head, playing a trumpet, surrounded by a few admiring kids, listening. Reminded me of the Wizard of Oz or some such fairy tale. I also listened to him play for a while before getting back to my meeting.
My friend said that actually only a small percentage bought support. But he was happy about that, because the user base was so large that even a small percentage made for a lucrative business.

It's just a variation on give away the razor, sell the blades. Give away the music, sell the concert tickets. Open source enables reaching a much, much larger audience than would otherwise be possible, and at a much lower cost than doing advertising. (You also don't have to expend time and treasure dealing with piracy and the inevitable customer problems and anger with your DRM mechanism.) Another benefit is customers fix bugs and feed those back to you, so you've got a stronger product.

Another model for making money off of open source is using it as an advertisement delivery platform. We're all familiar with that stuff.

I also have a friend who expended a great deal of effort creating a very nice dev tool. He wanted to get paid for it, and made it closed source, pay only. An expensive marketing campaign is necessary to make that work (like what Coverity does), but he didn't have one. He made zero sales and was bitter about it.

I don't know your particular situation, and it might be worth a try for you to go pay-only. But be prepared to invest a lot in marketing.

As for the trust thing, my experience is that trusting customers works. Treat them as worthy of trust and respect, and they will respond likewise. Treat them with suspicion and DRM, and they'll live down to that expectation.
I think that's a great idea. Electronic aids, despite the overhead, have a higher ceiling than a feeble acoustic violin. It can be more unique, more exotic, and more easily heard.

I never got much of a talk, yet every time I did, I questioned my parents' rationale and savvy. It was simultaneously both an epiphany and a dark moment when in your early teenage years you realize you are unquestionably smarter than your parents.

Here is what I was told:

* The value of your home doubles about every 7 years. I was told this in 1994. I then asked if my father's salary doubled every 7 years. I was immediately grounded and sent to my room.

* I was told to, without question, borrow money for the best college I could. When I asked on how I would pay that back, the question was dodged.

* How much money to save? Never came up. 401K? My parents didn't have one. Credit card interest? I was told to get it as low as I could -- but never told to avoid it.

* We always seemed to buy new cars. We had a basement full of junk. Seemed to be a nice setup for a guy working at a landfill and a stay at home mom in a city that had been in non-stop decline since the end of World War II.

I ended up going against my parents' advice. Something that got me kicked out of the house, for refusing to borrow 150% of their homes' value (I got a scholarship, but far from a free ride) with my own future money I hadn't yet earned, to attend Carnegie Mellon (and instead taking a job to pay for state school, which I ended up leaving after 3 semesters). When the dot-com bubble was about to burst. Result?

At age 22 I moved back in with my parents. Not because I needed help, but because they tapped their savings after Dad was unemployed for 6 months, despite unemployment insurance, and desperately needed help (and I wasn't giving them a handout while also renting my own apartment). I was the only person in the immediate family that had a decent job. This was exasperated by the fact they took a huge HELOC (at 10.5%) to help my sister pay to attend Cornell, an offer that wasn't extended to me, but was now burying them alive. They had to help my sister because she dropped BioChem for Psych, which for 2 years hadn't yet landed her anything better than working at a Hollywood Video store.

I ended up giving them the third degree. Their books I forced open. So much credit card debt (nothing insane, but significant, and lots paid in interest). So much garbage. So much useless crap. ZERO ever saved in a 401K (it wasn't until 7 years ago that I forced my father's hand on contributing to one). Virtually no savings to draw on. Never mind the extreme animosity considering that I was repaying part of my sister's Ivy League schooling, in addition to my parents' primary mortgage (not paid off after 32 years), and their health insurance.

Crazy thing is, they were far from the biggest financial basket cases in the neighborhood.
