A somewhat related story...

I have a problem recognizing faces. I have many times asked who someone is after seeing them many times before. My wife tells me who different characters are in a movie since I can't tell them apart.

To me all faces fall into a finite number of categories. There are many people who look alike so everyone looks like one of a score or two faces.

Years ago (2000) I developed a website called facelink where people posted photos of themselves and were given short links to put in online discussions. But I had an ulterior motive. I hoped to mine this database of face images to try and categorize faces, at least as how I saw them. Unfortunately the site took off and I was too busy to work on my original goal.

I had only ten's of thousands of faces instead on a million like the database mentioned in this article. Maybe when I have time I'll try again to categorize faces using this db.
You mean like IList, IEnumerable, etc....
You might be fine，but I'd be ready to make a lot less money as we move into a more freelance oriented market

the problem is that labor doesn't scale very well. 2 talented young programmers working all-out 12 hours a day on one project will generally be more productive than 3 talented folks with family working all-out 8 hours a day. (Agile, git, etc. all try to fix this to a degree... ) The current economic situation is that startups have very very deep pockets and will pay an insane premium to have stuff ASAP - which will mean very small, very overworked, very talented "rock stars".

If you want to fix healthcare.gov and the president's reputation is on the line, you'll get the rockstarest rockstars you can find and slave drive them till it's done

If you want a good work life balance I recommend the defense sector - but again - expect a pay cut. (like $120K end of career in SoCal vs. $250K in SF)
So have apt and apt-get. So that takes away one of the advantages of FreeBSD

Not completely. In Debian and others it's mostly a choice between a stable base and stale software or a moving base and up to date software (though backports improve things quite a bit for Debian Stable).

Since in FreeBSD packages are separated from the base system, it's possible to run a stable base system, while using quarterly updates or rolling release (latest) of packages.

(Note: I didn't have many problems running Debian Unstable, but it may depend on your requirements.)
Is this a copyright violation? (just asking)
Pain and suffering were well established as part of compensatory damages by the early 19th century. My theory for why they became more common was the industrial revolution. In agrarian societies, it's rare for someone to get hurt in a way that could've been prevented by someone else exercising more care.
Tips and tricks for a successful presentation
There's plenty of number floating around various source, one at random claims US$263,000[1] in the US and AU$812,000 in Australia[also 1]. Of course, it depends how much you spend (private school or public, $400 shoes or $40). A single parent on welfare in Australia will spend substantially less than a couple who have a combined income of one million. Also the single parent on welfare gets benefits like discounted healthcare (free primary care) and discounted public transport.

Yeah, I'll usually check those user's other reviews, when the top reviews are all 5-star... if they don't have any other reviews at 3 or less, I'll generally move on to another product.

The worst ones is when there's 4-5 unrelated products, and the same reviewers on all 5 of them all 5-star reviews.

It's getting pretty bad... I think they should remove the weight of all ratings for users that have spent less than $1k on Amazon, and those that haven't continued to spend at least $100 a year... there's enough people that do spend that much regularly to count those reviews as a higher weighting..
The advice here is sage. If you run a platform-type SaaS business (not necessarily PaaS but more like SaaS with multiple functional use cases, which the OP calls the API business), make sure to read the OP.

To me, this one resonated best:

"APIs have a particularly tough marketing challenge in that the product can have a ton of varying use cases. You need different messaging to multiple customer segments each with their own use cases and needs."

In terms of "doing things that don't scale early on", this is _the_ thing API-as-a-Service companies ought to do. Your users won't build reference apps for you. You need to build them for your customers and make them very easy to use. This amounts to what enterprise software marketers call "solution selling."

Disclosure: I lead marketing at Treasure Data, an early Clearbit customer.
I've always found that these "Quick, don't think of 'x'" things are a silly example. You end up thinking of X the moment you read X, just before it gets put in context of "not" and "think". It's like telling the parser not to tokenize a given word. Then there's automaticity, which you have to turn off, which is made harder by "Quick", further setting you up to think further of elephants till you get around to grasping the meaning of the phrase.
Meh, hardware vendors routinely ignore GPL, and for the money it takes to sue them in court you could in most cases reverse engineer their drivers and write them for scratch.

That would not pass review with me. Code should be as obvious and simple to read as possible. It doesn't matter whether or not the reader is a beginner or not, what matters is that it reads like it could be a typo. So there is more cognitive overhead than strictly necessary, and quite possible there are bugs hidden in those 'clever' bit that you love so much.
What would you consider the advantage of FreeBSD ports/packages? Why would that be taken away by pkg?

pkg provides a way to manage (binary) packages. There are other tools (like poudriere, last time I dabbled in the FreeBSD world) to manage/create binary packages.

You could run FreeBSD on your tiny VPS, but build packages with all the custom ports options you could want in a jail on your local machine.

Sure. First of all, even though you're clearly a developer (as you mentioned writing unit tests), I'd recommend starting at a higher level of abstraction with BDD tools, basically anything that implements the Gherkin language (I can't tell you which BDD tool to use as I don't know what language you're coding in, if you can tell me I can give you a more specific recommendation). The idea behind this is that you're writing your code to meet a specification that your client can also work with, so you can be sure the specification you're coding against is what the client wants. As an added bonus, the Gherkin scripts form a type of living documentation, providing clear information about what the application does whilst also remaining up to date (so long as all tests must pass before a new version is sent out).

Second recommendation is to look into how to avoid test-induced damage, which is where code gets bloated and more complicated in order to make it more testable. One major source of problems in this area is the need to create mock objects. I'd recommend this video from Mark Seemann as a good starting point in this area, as it looks at how you can create unit tests without mocks:

https://www.infoq.com/presentations/mock-fsharp-tdd

If you can let me know which language you're mostly coding in I'll see if I can give you some more recommendations.
Pity this documented is not dated. But judging from the version numbers of things he mentions it probably dates from around 2003 or perhaps 2004.

Hardly think so. Doing exercise like riding a bike, even a cycling machine: http://www.crazysales.com.au/exercise-bikes/ is good for health and shaping a body. Doing exercise can free your mind from meaningless worries or whimsical thoughts. Afterwards, you can be more concentrated on your life or work.
Exactly... Anker is generally pretty good, I've had a couple issues. After the report of a Google employeee reviewing various USB3 cables, I actually tested (just via an app on my phone at the time) all the cables/chargers I had... Amazing how much difference a cable can make... wound up getting a bunch of new cables, and replacing half my chargers.

To this day I'm amazed at how relatively badly the "Amazon Basics" usb cables worked.

This reads like an advertisement. Also, I wonder where this is going. When DVDs first came out with the capability of different camera angle choices, porn quickly picked up on this and made a big deal about it but it went nowhere as far as I can tell.

Porn seems to lead in technology advances in general. Videotape porn was rented in many porn video stores before store rentals became mainstream.

> I like FreeBSD, and I use it as a server OS and on a NAS box but you only need look at https://wiki.freebsd.org/Graphics to understand that if the "Linux Desktop" is a joke compared to MacOS and Windows then the "FreeBSD Desktop" is even more so.

I've never heard anything good about the "MacOS desktop" and I'm pretty sure that the "windows desktop" is far behind the "linux desktop"(plugins, performance, menus etc.). Have you tried something else than xfce or unity?
What's funny, is it's really upset me that Newegg has headed in this direction as well... It's better than most things when you're looking for very specific products, but the generic items on Amazon are horrible.

Front End Skills to Take Your Web Design Career to the Next Level
My understanding - and I spend a lot of time with teachers - is that this probably isn't true. Teachers improve for the first 3 to 5 years, but most don't after that, as very few spend time on ongoing professional development, and there are very few novel experiences they're exposed to. At least some references in: http://www.economist.com/news/briefing/21700385-great-teachi...
You can cast in any direction amongst protocol objects, concrete types, and generic types. You can also dynamically inspect the type itself (without needing an instance of it).

For example, say we wish to write a function that builds an array from an arbitrary sequence. But as a fast path, if the sequence is already an array, just return it:

func makeArray<T:SequenceType>(from values:T) -> [T.Generator.Element] {
if let alreadyAnArray = values as? [T.Generator.Element] {
return alreadyAnArray
} else {
return Array(values)
}
}

or we can use a Golang-style technique to dispatch to a more specific protocol. See for example how debug descriptions are generated by checking conformance to a series of protocols in turn [1]: https://github.com/apple/swift/blob/1e2d192b61c9003d8b8a8593...

My understanding is that this is more limited in Rust, though I'm not too familiar with how Any works - please correct if I'm wrong.
Even weighting reviews on how much the reviewer spends on Amazon per year relative to the product cost would go a long way.

Funny. One measure when motor signal and sees that it can measure when it appears in consciousness. Do me a favor, how can you be sure that what you measure is actually consciousness. Give me a "measurable" consciousness.

Moreover, Freud basically says that free will doesn't exist because he makes a difference between conscious and subconscious... The latter being a huge bunch of thoughts you don't make/change at will...

Moreover, predicting if a ball will fall when put above the ground is something. Predicting the next second of life of the universe is something else. So predicting a subject will raise its left/right hand is something. Predicting what will be his opinion about abortion is an entire story

All of this reminds me of studies done long ago which tried to predict if someone was a criminal or not by measuring the shape of its skull...

Peppering your description with 100 uses of the word "arbitrary" and "crafted" does not cause expected behaviour to become a security vulnerability! That's not a "crafted" location header, it's a perfectly normal location header.
There is also the motivations of the scanner owner to consider. They are paid to do scans. A cheap scan might be low hundreds of dollars per hour. A more commercial rate would be well into the thousands. We don't want to dry up now do we?

I don't think I can even remotely understand what this feels like. Worst thing I've done in my time over here was handling hand grenades (just as 13of40) and throwing/detonating a live one was the closest I got to 'hide behind shelter and feel a big boom' - and already far too scary on my personal scale of things Not To Do Again™.
When your about to dig a chunk of someone's brain out and have a variety of routes to get to the offending region, it's handy to know what you might be able to avoid knocking off.
You can't but you have little choice as Amazon rules online retail. Think Wal-Mart in the 2000s.
I _think_ you can get away with not selling ever at full price if your comparison price is the manufactures RRP.

You can't do this for "bespoke" products which is where the UK law seems to most hit businesses - things like furniture which are specific to the retailer.

Of course the $1200 candy bar price is never the RRP :)
> Also, OpenBSD, DragonflyBSD, and FreeBSD can all be used as server or desktops without much fiddling. Their installers are better than anything in the Linux world. You can have one up and running with a nice wm, browser, etc, in 15 minutes.

When I wanted to try FreeBSD the installation failed multiple times and after the first success I couldn't install a DE for hours. I've also had problems with the package manager because I couldn't install anything before doing something with some configuration files. OpenBSD is the same category but at least it doesn't failed at installation as much.
Not sure... I had really good luck with a pair of Amazon Basics speakers, in that I bought 3 more pairs... all three after the first set had issues. Beyond this, their USB cables are garbage for charging, okay for data transfer.

Given the poor experience, I'm unlikely to buy any more Amazon branded products.
It is a website for his own wedding offering a chance to learn something. I don't understand why there is a need to be pedantic about things like the JavaScript only in this context. It is a reoccurring thing on HN and it doesn't invite us to have a good discussion about the dependency to JS. There is also no need to compare it to yourself. It just comes off very self centered. I understand that in many cases you might not need a certain technology but if there is a fun opportunity to learn a certain thing and using it has little to no harm, why not?
But his point is that the site isn't doing anything that couldn't be achieved without js.

This would be like if a mechanic said he was going to replace your wheels with wooden ones he made himself because he wants to learn how to be a carpenter.
I can't find one. Probably the best way to repro would be to run the Quake 1 shareware demo under DOSBOX. The command is ~ (open the console) then 'timerefresh'.

Hopefully, you can turn down the DOSBOX CPU budget low enough to see the software rasterizer in action.

This guys did videos of Doom rendering pixel-by-pixel http://fabiensanglard.net/doomIphone/doomClassicRenderer.php But, he didn't do the same for Quake. That's the best I can do for ya.
I've just noticed AMZN is also filtering/rigging search results e.g. "car battery 45Ah"
A small correction: cited study used MEG, not fMRI, as modality.

The conclusion itself doesn't look very surprising for me. We already know that the sound processing in general is the same in both hemispheres while the speech processing is very lateralized. From the continuity I could say that there should be a border where speech-like sounds sound like speech and therefore they are processed differently between hemispheres. This study seems to estimate this border.
Meanwhile, the research I work for publishes all of their data. In fact, the main reason I have been hired by their professor as a programmer/interaction designer (through HN no less) is because the next project will produce a mountain of data and he does not want it to collect dust after the project is done. I am supposed to make the data even more accessible to other researchers through a web-interface.

Aside from the ethical motivations, other benefits are pretty obvious: there is at least one postdoc in the research department that I know of was recruited because he found a completely different use for the data shared in the past and published a paper based on his own analysis.

(The research group works with mouse brains so privacy is not an issue)
While a benefit this inertia also creates a risk. It allows Amazon management to do the usual quarterly focused changes to push profit with no measurable loss to sales. Each one of these building cumulatively towards that tipping point for a flood of customers to head to the next 'good service' competitor. End of the day its a good problem and amazing they haven't challenged this further given years of people complaining about these false reviews.
These politicians are right - simply opening the existing source, with all it's flaws, bugs, and security holes, would be dangerous. It would be a huge help to any malicious party. I don't think they're suggesting open source is worse from a security point of view; they're saying that you can't open up an existing product without doing a lot of work first.

Where they are wrong is in the assumption that keeping the source closed makes them safe from an attack.
Would be counter-intuitive for fb to ever do this. They thrive on posts being commented on - it promotes discussion (for the better or worse), therefore interest in the post.
Not sure if handing out advice is appropriate. But what the heck, nobody mentioned cannabis oil treatment, so here I am mentioning it. It probably won't turn the "when" to an "if", but is worth investigating to see maybe it the treament is something you would like to try. I've researched quite a bit and it seems to have helped (relatively) delay the "when" to quite a lot of people.

I personally find it hard accepting things I'm told to do or that most people have been doing for ages (i.e I don't use shampoo, I sleep on the floor, no commercial toothpaste etc..). I'm not a naturalism fanatic too, it's just things I researched and resonated with me, I tried them, and I liked it.

I wish you tranquility either way.

Mozilla already has complete human code review in place, so that's why the article isn't specifying a better solution. Yes, it doesn't scale at all, but this is one of the things where non-profit actually has the edge, as Mozilla can just throw their huge community of volunteers at the problem.
I have a lot of sympathy for the BSDs. I actually learned Unix with NetBSD in 2004. Problem with BSD nowadays, at least for me, is that all supported desktop hardware is really old. The newest, still available, Laptop that works is the Lenovo X240 (and other x40s....). And when everything works, like on my Samsung NP530, there is strange stuff like a super slow and unreliable Wi-Fi connection. So if you want a great OOTB development experience with the same, working, OS on Desktop and server, Linux is the way to go...

But I cannot help and sometimes try the BSD stuff out, as it feels like "my parents home".
I'm super aggravated that you cannot easily check negative reviews. Most of the time positive ones are so vague (even if not shilled), meanwhile the negative ones will say "flimsy switch that will break", "500000 lumen standby diode", "leaks", etc etc

Compression does not use a significant amount of memory - it's the deduplication which uses a lot of memory. In fact compression can make it run faster as there is less I/O data.

Another aspect of the "Linux vs. FreeBSD" story is Java. I was almost won over by FreeBSD few years ago, however what keeps me back is so to speak the "second class citizenship" of the JVM on FreeBDS. Or at least it was so pre-OpenJDK 8, when I looked.

Is anyone successfully using Java on FreeBSD in production?
I have run OpenBSD as my primary OS for years and never experienced anything like that. It boots/reboots very quickly.
They were great. I wrote a caching NNTP server around that time, which was manually multiplexed initially, and finding Libero and seeing how much easier it was to handle the state transitions influenced how I saw the use of code generation. I've been a fan ever since.

I also avoid most things that are all 1 or 5 star... if there aren't a few 2-4 and there's more than a dozen reviews, it's obviously got issues... It sucks that I have to think about though.

They can, however, try to accurately represent history at the beginning of the conflict (or at the first point that is shown in the game).

In truth, though, this is a very weak argument as far as WW2 (and probably the upcoming WW1) games go, because they tend to have a storyline that largely follows the actual historical development - i.e. "Axis cannot win" - but with some considerable liberties. That, yes, can be kinda disrespectful in some cases.
Whilst the incentives are all wrong in this situation, that's a good thing, right?
