I suspect I have the unpopular opinion, but I don't see this as an especially big deal. Yes, I understand this is an especially sensitive issue for SFers. And yes, it sucks for the guy. Renting has its perks, but this is part of the risk of renting; you're living on someone else's property. Repeating that--it's THEIRS, not yours. If you have no current contract (lease), why should they be required to rent something to you under terms you like? Where else does this occur? When some business raises rates, it is the exception, not the rule, that you're "grandfathered" in to a previous rate.

I get that having to move and find a new place to live is a bigger deal than if McDonald's raises the price of a cheeseburger by a dime, and that's why there are some protections in place (requirements of notice, an eviction process, etc.), but there is no indications that those aren't in play here.
> The safety means pointers to list nodes aren’t part of the list’s
> API.

A quick glance at LinkedList leads me to believe that there's no technical reason why we couldn't support a `split_at_node` function that takes a raw pointer to a list node (along with additional APIs that actually return raw pointers to list nodes, which themselves wouldn't need to be unsafe).

And even if my intuition is wrong and there's some reason why the implementation of LinkedList in the standard library can't do this for some reason, I see no additional reason why some other implementation of linked lists couldn't do this. (The standard library implementation likely optimizes for convenience rather than power, given that our data structures guru has a complicated relationship with linked lists: http://cglab.ca/~abeinges/blah/too-many-lists/book/README.ht... ). The fact that Rust doesn't favor these sorts of things hasn't stopped others from going ahead and writing implementations anyway: https://crates.io/search?q=intrusive

Rust definitely enjoys supporting this use case (heck, the stdlib even does it: http://doc.rust-lang.org/src/std/up/src/libstd/collections/h... ), but when it falls down please feel free to check to see if others have preceded you in scratching your itch: https://crates.io/search?q=lru

I'm still unsure what you're implying here, given that, again, unsafe code can use raw pointers willy-nilly (though as we've established, using the stdlib to compose data structures via raw pointers isn't always convenient).
US government warns of blockchain risks
Similar situation here in my country (middle Europe). There is one big corporate connected to some political representatives. They bought few hospital, 112 ambulance service (equal to 911 service), pharmacies, some local medical centers, they even have one health insurance company (one of three acting here).

They have great diversification. In some locations they have monopoly. If you need immediate help (you see or are member of accident, you have strong pain no matter where (head, teeth, back)) you have almost no choice. You are still calling emergency and/or paying to one pocket.

From one side, public hospital all very old and incredibly indebted, outdated medical devices, buildings are old and need renovation. Mentioned corp invested huge amount of money in renovation, improving environment and business process. People have better services and new private hospitals has very good financial health and level of customer services.

On the other hand, very sad thing is that public representatives are able only talk about nothing and perform reformation feasibility studies and studies about studies. They are not able to get needed public services to desired level. If private corps will own entire public health-care system this will be an issue. Charging for services will not limited at all. There is almost no competition in this area since have huge entry difficulties. And even someone would be able to get into competition with this shark corp. they simply buy him.

Javascript is a bad language. Function scope. Terrible type system. Lack of native integers. Oh and btw this:

alert((![]+[])[+[]]+(![]+[])[+!+[]]+([![]]+[][[]])[+!+[]+[+[]]]+(![]+[])[!+[]+!+[]]);

which is should be a dead giveaway that something is terribly wrong here. It was never designed to have a standard library for instance. The author alludes to this fact as being a problem for nodejs that go/ruby doesn't have. Whenever I write a lot of front end code and then have to transition to writing backend code I realize how much my brain has melted trying to think in javascript.

It's more "establishment media" than "left-wing media", though. The idea that Clinton is left-wing is just amusing, nothing more than an US peculiarity. The only leftish party the US seems to have left is the Green, and the mainstream media certainly doesn't promote them.
Interestingly, the french taxation department used to require you to identify on their website using a certificate, starting in the early 2000s.

A few years ago they dropped this requirement and you can now login using just an email and password.

The certificate-based identification process was really bad UI-wise so going with passwords probably helped them get more people to interact online instead of via paper forms.

That one will not work because the function is not C∞ [I didn't know how to make that symbol] in 1. it's first derivative is 0 in 1, but that's only because the derivative for 1-1/(1-(x-1)^2) is 0 in 1, that will not be the case for the second derivative.

If you look at what's going on in 0, the derivative of any order is something like phi(x) e^(1 - 1/(1 - (x - 1)^2)) where phi is a rational function, and thus it will always be 0 in 0 (the exponential always beats a rational function).

so the answer is, similarly to what kmill posted:

0 for x <=0
1 for x >= 1
1/(1+exp(K(x))) else

With K(x) = (x-1/2)/(x(x-1))

(x-1/2 is added to create a change of sign between 0 and 1)

in 0, K(x) -> ∞, so 1/(1+exp(K(x)) -> 0, and in 1, K(x) -> -∞, so 1/(1+exp(K(x)) -> 1.

To see that the function is C∞, you can check that the n-th derivative 1/(1+exp(K(x))) is of the form phi(x) exp(K(x)) 1/(1+exp(K(x)))^(n+1) where phi is a rational function, and then verify that the n-th derivative is 0 in 1 and 0.
If you've ever run a website that doesn't verify email addresses, you will likely run into this problem. The average person doesn't double check for typos, and they can't discover it after the fact because they didn't notice the typo in the first place, and you won't be able to contact them to inform them.

Your suggestion of disabling copy instead of paste may be a better solution, though.

RAND corporation once developed a procedure to get a result from a group of experts. They introduced an intermediator, a sufficiently educated person whose job is to prod experts, ask the questions (often redirecting issues raised by other experts) and in the end produce a summarized overview of their positions.

OK, now imagine the machine detects something. What now? A human isn't allowed to look at it, if I understand you correctly? Or only with a warrant? What would be the basis for the warrant? The fact that the machine detected something? Also, who gets to decide about the code the machine is running? Could someone just decide to have it flag everything, thus giving the basis for a warrant for everything, thus allowing humans to look at everything? Could you elaborate?
Lloyds UK has a system that I quite like, you have your credentials and then to login they ask you 3 random letters of another password that you select from 3 dropdowns. This way you have your password that is presumably secure, and you have this thing which is pretty fast to complete once you get used to it, that should help with people looking at you or keyloggers.
Airbnb is definitely not the analogy of Uber. It's extremely expensive service - prices of dirty rooms with old furniture are higher than in 4-stars apart-hotels. In city I live (Saint Petersburg) price for room in Airbnb is 8-9 times higher than on local sites. And I tried to find room in Rome, Prague, Barcelona - every time Airbnb was more expensive than good hotels.

It always amazes me that someone is hired to implement strong security and they come up with things like paste-blocking. Or "security questions." Security questions are a social engineers best friend. Unless you're savvy and your answers are all strong passwords themselves, and if they are you're probably using keepass or something like it with 400+ bit passwords and you hate wasting time on security questions too.
We clearly need more/better tooling in this area in C).

I think the tooling we have nowadays is better than we give it credit for. Between clang's analyser, ASAN, Infer and tis-interpreter, I often find when someone points out a vulnerability, I can get one of these tools to make an issue of it.

Note I'm not suggesting this is enough to make C safe.

Edit: A quick demonstration, based on 30 seconds with valgrind. If I run with ./bin/massdns --help, it makes a malloc() on line 595, then exits on 605 without free()ing. And yes I know this isn't really an issue in practice, but it demonstrates that the tools can see issues.
Yeah disabling copy makes more sense. I think the scenario is where you have to type your password 2x to avoid typos on a field where you can't see what you've just typed (to avoid shoulder surfers).. the first time the user types the password, then they highlight and ^C and then paste into the second field...
Sure, but if you are using a language without support for unicode, and you don't use a dedicated library (which would be already using a kind of lexer, wouldn't it?), you have also to parse these unicode characters yourself.
Ha - I just got it. CLImate, right? I like it. I was gonna suggest something like termtool, or just term.
I am also becoming wary of using airbnb, for some of the reasons mentioned here. I did meet some great hosts, but at other times I felt I would have been better off e.g. in a hostel.

I'm staying longer term in BCN for a month and a half and accidentally ended up at an outdoor concert last night before realizing that it was protesting tourists. "Tourism kills the city" was the slogan on the signs around the area. In 2 weeks, I've seen at least 2 demonstrations like this and it seems to be picking up from previous years that I've been here. Things are a little more crowded and I feel like every day there's a bachelor / bachelorette party running around - the density of which reminds me of vegas.

I like to think that I blend in more than most tourists - the ones you see in groups of 8 with 2-3 roller bags each fumbling for the keys and trying to make sure they find the right building - but I'm probably biased.

I'm not sure what BCN's solution will be. Tourism is 12-15% of their economy in Catalonia, so it's not a small chunk for a country with 20% unemployment rate. The hotel options aren't great for what you pay for. AirBnB is definitely cheaper (and usually roomier), but it's a difference when you notice that all your neighbors in "old town" are german / british tourists that pop in for a weekend and then leave. Barcelona does have an ordinance that you can only rent rooms for longer than 30 days - so they have people that come around on occasion to check - but I think it's sort of hit & miss enforcement.

I'm not sure I have answers as much as questions - and it's interesting being on the ground zero and seeing this take place.
Seems like the problems pointed are all about a bad implementation of infinite scrolling, not about the problems of it. You should use a virtual list that already knows how many elements are available totally, in this way you can already provide the right size to the list and the scrollbar is not affected. The footer could just be fixed ok bottom of the page. I mean, there are plenty of good solutions.
Can anyone elaborate what passporting means in this case? I don't think that was explained in that article. I'm assuming that it has something to do with transferring funds from one country to another?

From my experience, everything depends on company policy and direct line manager.

In my previous job even I had few years of experiences and positive job results I was allowed to have home-office only 7 days per month (company policy). Now, in my current company I am working in full time home-office mode.

I my current position is delivery divided 60 % is internal customer, 40 % is external customer. My presence at meeting is not required. I can report what i did to manager and other co-workers are not interested in my job/issues. Everything can be solved via phone/skype for business or email.

In my previous job was 100 % external customer. But we were required to be presented at long and boring meetings where discussion was focused on customer side (business, technical issues) and internal side (process, benefits, vacations, co-worker issues and other never-ending stories).

In total I have various IT skill gathered during last 9 years. Hard to say if skill-set or years of experiences are important to get into full remote position (probably not). I observed that good relationship with managers, do your job with great results and communicate properly is enough. Managers are especially sensitive to proper communication about progress and possible delays. They need report to higher places so if they have info what do you do, how it goes and have something to talk about they don't bother if you here or there. But it still depends on certain line manager. Colleague of mine had manager who was very sensitive to coming 8:05 to office and leaving 16:29.

>I'd love for that to be true, but the research I linked to says otherwise.

Source 1 is not "research." It is case reporting.

Source 2: While I admit I didn't read the whole thing (merely quickly went through the intro and conclusion plus a couple of other key paragraphs), it sounded like they were talking about setting levels of supplementation beyond normal dietary intake, right? If correct, that's at 75mg plus normal Japanese intake (which is higher than standard US intake, I believe). I'm happy to be corrected if I misunderstood something in my quick skimming.

Plus, as is the case with most of these guidelines, especially with initial stabs at setting limits, they acknowledge that this threshold they set is conservative. The real best guess at a safe level would be higher--even according to them--because it is their job to be artificially conservative.

As there is a lot of distrust against the police in this thread, I'd like to share my experience with them in my home country, Belgium. In every case, they were professional, as human as possible, and did more than required form them in bad situations:

* Suicide attempt by close relative: Police called us in the middle of the night after making sure immediate medical aid was given. They let us stay in the police night office until we could enter the hospital in the morning, gave us coffe, calmed us as much as possible. At that point the suicide attempt vs murder attempt part wasnt very clear and they could have treated us as potential murderers.

* Unexpected death of another close relative in Holland: Both Belgian and Dutch police gave every help they could, even calling back the 2 cops from a day of who had found him in very messy circumstances (which explains the day off). Lots of legal wrangling because he died in another country, but they did everything they could and more.

* Failure of a traffic light in heavy storm with zero visibility in the middle of the night. It was a temp traffic light in road works, that sank away in the mud. So basically everyone from one direction ignored the red light while seeing almost nothing. We had just avoided an accident ourselves, then witnessed another one seconds later. So we called 112. Ten minutes later, in the storm, in the night, they came and started regulating traffic until they found the guy (hours later) that could fix the light.

I hear horrible police stories from the USA, but at least in western europe the police has by default my respect.

Making immigration an argument only about unskilled labour is incredibly short-sighted. You can't run an economy just with highly-skilled workers.

At the very least you can expect things like construction or plumbing to become a lot more expensive (not that I consider either unskilled labour but those are typically not included when talking about visa for skilled workers).

Then there's the foreign exchange risk created by this whole mess, which will make skilled work more expensive as well.

I've been doing business with UK companies occasionally and up until now I had no problem with billing them in GBP. Now I'll have to bill them in EUR because I'm not willing to take the foreign exchange risk. Since the pound is already massively devalued against the euro and likely will continue to be in the next few years British companies will have to pay a premium for products and services from outside the UK.
I understand that there needs to be accountability from the FEC on how campaign funds are raised, however, this twitter feed gives out PII about donors including their home address and their employer. The only purpose I can think of for this information outside of the FEC would be to determine if you are a democrat or republican by doing an API lookup on your name and home address. Is there public value in determining your political affiliation? I'm not sure there is. (at least no positive public value)
Catalonia is not only Barcelona. In Barcelona tourism is about third of city's income, so protests like this are ridiculous. Noisy tourists are usually in hotels/hostels. And I have to say locals sometimes are more noisy than tourists.
