That is a truly hilarious rug. He has a good sense of humor. I went to one of his "Christmas Tree" lectures one year. This is a lecture in December, near Christmas, where he talks about "the most interesting thing I have learned about trees in the past year". I kept up for about 10 minutes but it got esoteric very fast.
This is not a 'self-signed' certificate. This is an internal DISA Certificate Authority.

Edit:
Looking a bit closer, this is a web application that uses the CAC for client-certificate authentication. Odds are if you have a reason to be going to this site, you already have this CA cert installed, and are using your CAC to auth against it.

So we have a creationist debunking a pseudoscientific climate scare story? It's hard to know who to believe. However, given that there are no other news stories about this, and given that Beckwith talks says hyperbolic stuff like "Welcome to climate chaos. We must declare a global climate emergency", I'm inclined to think it is just fearmongering BS.

Specific examples?

I have a question for you which may or may not be related. Do you get your "news" from professional clowns?
They approach the same problem from opposite directions. Goa's DSL will let you code a server, and then export a Swagger spec that clients can consume (and codegen their end from).

Whereas Swagger's code generators start with the Swagger spec already written. You can use them to generate a server, which will create the scaffolding but leave you with the logic to implement.
I think the OP is correct; the Portuguese crown had designs on the Rio de la Plata region in the late 17th century. For instance, they founded this city in present day Uruguay, opposite Buenos Aires:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colonia_del_Sacramento#History

Edit: seems that you might be right in that potentially the post mixes up Paraguay with Uruguay, though. I guess it depends on what we mean by "Rio de la Plata region." In 18th century geography, those kinds of boundaries are a lot hazier.

Google – My Activity
It's much sooner than 18.10. From the article, "Starting with the upcoming Ubuntu 16.10 Yakkety Yak release, there shouldn't be any 32-bit Desktop and Server ISO images available for download."
I claimed preconception about a topic. I do not know which; I only assume that a downmodder had something in mind. I suppose it's possible they are completely random downmods from wandering bots.

> I'm simply noting that you seem to give off the impression that you're not genuinely interested, or open to being persuaded.

You're not the first person to conflate me writing and giving attention to something as being "not genuinely interested". I honestly do not understand this perception, particularly when I am discussing details of things brought up deeper into a conversation. Why would I waste my time on such trivialities?

>The line I quoted ("this pattern has only been observed with women") was an unreasonable, extraordinary standard of proof.

You'll note that line is not in this particular thread. It is however related and I agree that it was poor.

>I'm just trying to help you understand what about your behavior might be causing people to perceive you as worthy of downvotes. I'm trying to give you insight as to how, if you are interested in genuine dialog, you can make that clear to others. Because your posts thus far create a very different perception than that.

Thank you for writing out your perceptions, even though you only downvoted one of my posts. I don't think the perceptions you describe as others perhaps having accurately characterize me, though. I am not attempting to create a particular perception; I'm only trying to have an on-topic discussion: an absolute claim was made that seemed to lack observed evidence -- and despite many posts discussing it now, no real evidence has been shown.
You can't? I'm sure I tried multi-channel via separate sound cards and it sounded fine to me. Maybe I was lucky with the timing, or the audio subsystem somehow accounted for it?
0/ Work with other developers, ideally next to them, on the same project. Learn from them no matter you think them "good" or "bad".

1/ When given the choice between making something exist and making it not exist, lean toward the latter. ie. Minimize Everything. Remove everything that can be. Things must earn their right to exist.

2/ Choose the best names you can come up with. If you can't find a good name for something, there is a chance it shouldn't exist. There are books about this.

3/ Code should enable things, not be a problem itself. Make it the easiest to maintain and understand above all other criterion. Code like you have an audience that will be reading that code while not really caring regardless. You can't expect the maintainer to care as much as the writer, it would be impolite to do so.

4/ Think a lot about what things should be splitted in two concepts, and what concepts should be merged into one. Iterate designs until they seem impossible to enhance. If it feels wrong it is probably wrong.

5/ Recognize your weak parts and improve them, not only those that are good already.

6/ Don't confuse input errors and bugs.

7/ Create the right abstractions if necessary and at the right level. Lean toward "no abstraction" if you're unsure of the best design yet.

8/ Forget everything systematically. If you need to remember something, find a way not to have to. You need all your neurons to learn new things constantly.

9/ For the hasty: work on legacy systems. This is the "hardcore difficulty" level of programming. Do some parsers.

10/ Don't give a name and reify everything, in fear it would become a topic of mental activity. Example: since users will report the biggest problems the most, maybe there is no need to record every last user wish. If a task is faster than to record it in the todo-list, make it right away, etc.

Introducing Worldwide SMS Messaging
I doubt it's laziness, I would think most users have no idea what the implications of running from a dmg / the desktop / ~/Applications or /Applications really are... It doesn't help that there are also .pkg installers that have a wizard-y interface (and which often are run from a mounted dmg, e.g. VirtualBox). Apple could impose some order on the mess, but I tend to find their solutions to problems like these heavy-handed, so though that would probably benefit most users, it might not be a win for the more technical ones.
many major marinas in large cities prohibit 'liveaboard' type boats for exactly this reason.

I remember the predecessor to swiftshader being open source, then it moved to Transgaming and the open source version webpages all disappeared. It was rather a shame because it had some excellent articles on rasterising triangles that went with it.

This kind of moral relativism is exactly part of the problem. Some positions are wrong no matter how many people believe in them. Things like Brexit happen exactly because we choose to tolerate things like religion, giving all the homophobes, creationists, conspiracy theorists, racists, math phobes, etc the idea that their world view is acceptable.

Yeah. From the hacker's point of view many such projects seem trivial, not worth bothering to talk about.

Toffler was one of those thinkers who shadow permeate our culture.

If you read their books soon after they are published, you see the world developing trough the the lens of his ideas.

If you first read their books several decades afterwards, you nod in agreement and are amazed how well this kindred spirit writes down what you have had in your mind, without realizing that you have been exposed to his ideas all this time and they are originally his.

I know that. However, factually I'm correct by saying that Chromium doesn't use webkit. It doesn't matter if it's still largely the same, what matters is that blink diverged from webkit for variety of reasons.

Not exactly. A sonar maps a surface using sound, while my camera looks at the sound itself.

> Keep your functions to one or two pages.

When I encounter functions that large, where the body isn't almost entirely declarative, they tend to be doing way too much. A function longer than 10 lines is a smell, IMO.
NetSurf actually is good. Most of the web is more-or-less usable with it (usually “less” but it's definitely bearable). It's stupid fast too. My only gripe is stability issues and that it's not officially supported on Windows.
Normally I would agree with you, but I'm also at the point where I just can't credit people who still STILL consider him to be an acceptable candidate for POTUS.

The incredible Brexit fiasco should drive home to us all that this is not a game, not a reality TV show.

This isn't about politics, it's about humanity. It degrades us (the U.S.A. as a Nation) to have this trainwreck taken seriously as a candidate.
The US gov will probably give you some money to fix that and make it available for free.

I had this idea of opening a game studio just for this purpose. To tell stories of politics and wars from an unbiased perspective. Currently most US video games about wars are more or less biased towards the US's view of the world.
Those automation curves actually get sent to the synth as discrete events, with the rate depending on the output buffer length: there may be tens of milliseconds between updates. Plugins have to implement their own smoothing functions to get natural sounding results. This is one good reason to run your DAW at a high sample rate.

The difference here to the analog domain, where you can continuously modulate any parameter at audio rate or higher with zero latency, is obvious.

Of course softsynths own inbuilt modulation sources will be oversampled these days along with everything else they do, which is why they sound pretty good now.

The Oramic is presumably using some kind of filtering on the output of those photodiodes or whatever it has, for similar reasons, but the point remains.
Volksverschlüsselung: Simply secure
No. SONAR sends out an ultrasonic ping and times the response of its echo to get a distance.

This project is similar in that it involves visualization from audio, but apart from that, it's quite difference. This is the ability to see a sound. To derive the positions of arbitrary sounds in a viewing plane, and render it like you would a picture or video.
Hi there, "high salary" is only 1 of the 8 O-1 criteria, so it's not mandatory. Lots of O-1s get approved without the "high salary" evidence. You have to show a minimum of 3, and preferably 4 or 5, categories, but not necessarily money.

Guessing from the context of this article, his statements, and your response, he was talking about theOryoki web browser authors who wrapped a browser in a UI framework to make a "small" browser. Apparently the number of UI widgets is what makes the difference between "small" and "full blown".
Would you mind linking to some docs on how to do that?

I only found this quote, which hints that it's a manual process (if your framework doesn't produce the spec):

"Either you create the definition manually (using the same Swagger Editor mentioned above), or if you are using one of the supported frameworks (JAX-RS, node.js, etc) [1], you can get the Swagger definition generated automatically for you." [2]

I have no dogma about where you implement your typechecker; all I assert is that it's better to have one. The LISP philosophy is (in my impression from the literature) that with powerful enough abstractions, one writes so little code that there is hardly any room for mistakes to sneak in, so typecheckers could provide little benefit. In one sense this thesis is plausible: at some level you either stop encoding the specification of your intended functionality into your types, or you end up programming in a theorem-proving language like Coq or Agda, which everyone seems to agree is bad for productivity. But I think we should be trying to move toward more specifications, not fewer, and solve the ergonomics problems as we encounter them.

Unrelatedly, I have worked in Typed Racket and the performance is so poor that I can't advocate its use. Of course you can profile and optimize anything, and avoid writing code which typechecks slowly, but such static analyses seem the sort of thing where incremental computation (caching, and amortization across executions of the typechecker) should make even very powerful analyses finish quickly. And Racket doesn't take advantage of the results of its typing analyses to optimize runtime representations of datatypes, so even after typechecking your code runs very slowly and uses a lot more memory than it needs.

Doesn't the army use something like this in the field to determine enemy sniper locations when they are taking pot shots?
No.

Most sonar is active (sends out pings) and has only one input (one microphone)

It builds pictures by directing the ping and measuring time until the response.

This is fundamentally different than an array of microphones passively listening to, and creating a fine grained picture of some sound source.
There is a Swiss startup called Distran (http://www.distran.ch/) which develops ultrasound cameras. They also have a spherical version which looks really cool and allows 360deg sight, unfortunately I cannot find anything about that one on the website anymore.
I'm not sure if they publicly acknowledge it, but I wouldn't doubt Snapchat is collecting data from use of lenses and using it to develop some amazing facial recognition/augmented reality software.

This would be pretty powerful if you combine it with speech recognition. If you put this array in the middle of a crowded room, can you better tease apart different audio sources?
These changes take the AWS SMS delivery from being suitable for ops alerts and the like, to being usable for end-user products.

On several projects where I've been involved, we'd have to justify why AWS could not be used, and why we needed a Twilio account instead, like the bad UX (non-customizable SNS opt-in messages) and US-only numbers. With these new capabilities, I think some non-trivial portion of AWS customers that are looking to add SMS messaging will pick this instead as the path of least resistance, even if Twilio is still more advanced.
