The balls on this guy. The sheer cynical audacity of trying to market yourself as a "defender of privacy" when you serve on the board of a company so antithetical to privacy that they're under federal supervision for twenty years [1] is breathtaking. Please tell me no one on Hacker News is dumb enough to fall for this.

My Google-fu is failing me on the exact link (can someone help?), but Marc Andreessen once penned some breathless, excited editorial about "the future of media", and at one point he talked about the editorial/advertising firewall as a relic that needed to be abandoned. It was so slickly inserted that you could almost forget what he was really saying: that news desks need to be prevented from reporting things that companies rather they didn't.

Every time a VC tries to tell me "what's wrong with the media", I reach for my gun. Everyone: they're not your friends. They're not trying to help you. Their overriding concern is nurturing the value of their investments, and that sometimes means silencing people who report inconvenient truths.

I understand that this is a difficult thing to understand and accept, as it is happening in fast forward in our lifetime. People had similar sentiments initially about other things that end up using public shared utilities (e.g., automobiles and phones).

It's unfair to expect most users to be able to protect themselves. Even professionals with experience struggle to protect their hardware and computers. Only doing post-incident triage is not going to work here in the same way that we require traffic laws and automobile regulation to make sure that we don't spend even more time and money scraping people-goo off the road.

Therefore, as a matter of public safety, we're going to have to put safety and security rules on publicly networked computers. Consider funding and hosting a private network if you find that onerous, perhaps?
I don't think they are psuedoscience, but it might be that architecture is an unusual case.

With other art forms, yes they use these rules, but there's also things like line, texture, color, and other rules that disguise or soften them. With architecture, I think they don't have much technique to do so, and the symmetry, golden ratio, etc, come through much stronger. Many of the examples he gave in his blog of good symmetry were actually fairly boring houses, and the problem with too much symmetry is a boring picture.

I mean the rules work, but in functional forms like houses, you have less ability to make them visually interesting overall. The McMansions might be the same principle in opposite-there isn't enough to make the non-symmetrical, almost abstract design less chaotic while keeping the visual interest.

I think them being Slavic speakers is in fact plausible (one element that seemed salient to me is the use of "cattle" where native speakers may perhaps have preferred "sheep" - it would work as a translation of быдло, which is a term the RUnet quite likes to apply to the sort of people they are talking about).

However, their command of English is almost certainly pretty good, seeing how they use somewhat fancy words ("closing remarks") appropriately and clearly know English idiom well ("When we feel is time to end" - using "feel" in that phrase is sufficiently peculiar to English that I wouldn't expect it from anyone who thinks in another language and translates in their head more or less mechanically). This makes it harder to rule out that the "free" file consists of exploits they collected on the market and doctored to give them a more NSAish veneer.

What part of not liquid investment do you not understand. There is a rate of return on the house, it is just hard to realize.

Don't forget to subtract what you would have paid for rent over that time period from the cost of the house payment (plus maintenance): there is your real return, it isn't that I pay $300,000 over 30 years for a $100,000 house that is now worth $315,000. It is that I paid $500/month - minus $300/month rent = $200/month or $72000 for an investment worth $315,000. Of course all the numbers above are subject to debate. I used a 4% yearly price increase for the house, I didn't factor in rent increases (though I should). You will be hard pressed to find a good house for $100,000 today, but you also won't find a place to rent for $300/month.

Again, a house is a poor only investment. However as part of a consider portfolio it can be great for some.

Atlantic Records wants to subpoena Reddit for "all and any other Reddit accounts which accessed [Reddit’s] service from the same IP address on or about June 15, 2016." That's an unreasonably broad scope and an infringement of privacy waiting to happen. If the user went through a public proxy or coffee shop, that could mean handing over hundreds of accounts' worth of personally identifiable information.

I'm not surprised at Reddit's response at all.

One of the things that I like to anecdotally measure is how long a similarly complex change takes. Over time, if it takes longer, then you're likely suffering from tech debt issues. If you're able to turn things around so that it starts getting done faster, then it sounds like you're starting to turn things around.

On the missed deadlines issue, that reminds me of a blog we posted a while ago about why we stopped estimating ongoing development on these types of code bases[1].

I also like to use the metaphor of a car that's stuck in the mud (or snow). The wheels Are spinning really fast and the engine is working really hard, but the car isn't going anywhere. It's only when you start trying to dig it out that you start to see forward progress, and even then, the progress is slow at first.

You've hit on one of my pet peives with JSON as a transport... likewise with PascalCase from java and .net projects. I tried using snake_case once to placate some PHP, and other guys, but in the end it would have been better to just use camelCase from the beginning as it wound up pretty alien in every environment.
I did the same thing about 2 years ago, after I calculated how much in fees Wealthfront (or Betterment) would cost me. I also didn't agree with some of the investment choices they force you to make (Wealthfront invested 5% in commodities, Betterment is heavily biased towards foreign stocks), which turned out to be good calls on my part - at least for now.

Anyway, investing a portion of each paycheck turned out to be too much repetitive work, so I wrote a cron job to do it for me automatically (more work, but more interesting work!). Then, I added automatic tax-loss harvesting once Betterment added theirs. Then, some friends wanted to use it, so I built a UI.

I'm thinking about releasing it to the public. To do that, I would have to become a registered investment advisor, but that's not a big deal - just taking a test and filling out some paperwork.

You're laughing, but an arts building I worked in had a separate electrical system (color-coded outlets) for A/V equipment in its performance spaces. I'm hazy on the details, but professional systems integrators apparently do believe that some components are sensitive to noise in the electrical supply, and it is useful to separate them from the rest of the electrical devices in a large building.

Google led me to a whitepaper [0] which indicates that the A/V power system's interesting characteristic was probably that its ground is bonded to building ground at exactly one point. Apparently in this design it's undesirable for an A/V system device to accidentally connect to the main building ground or actual "earth," which jives with my experience that a component accidentally plugged into a regular outlet created an unbearable hum in the audio signal (i.e. the grounds were substantially different).

I think I'm confused myself. I was interpreting the main issue in the JetBrains case to be their use of very permissive CORS headers on the locally running server, but their solution added an auth token in addition to removing the CORS policies. ycmd also doesn't appear to set any CORS headers, in addition to validating the HMAC of the request.

Is a sane cross-origin policy not enough on its own to prevent evil.com from being able to communicate with a web server running on localhost? Or is the message authentication to protect from attack vectors other than the user navigating to a malicious site?

There are many reasons why this is a bad idea

- Because how do you house, feed, care for the health of, and train all of the people, while and keeping them from assaulting each other?

- Because then you would have a bunch of poorly-skilled uninterested people around dangerous machinery.

- Because there is not enough land for people to be employed productively in using modern farming techniques.

- Because forcing people to perform labor is generally frowned upon in our society.

I agree with all three in general, but disagree for this situation.

How many small business owners run a family business? How many farms are family owned?

Historically, almost all ventures were taken as a family. From 10,000 years ago until about 75 years ago.

All that being said, there is a clear definition of who does what and those streams don't cross.

As for the power dynamic, to be honest it has impacted our ability to get funding. Although, I think personally it should be the reverse. As you pointed out, we live and die by this. Which means our incentives are more aligned than ever.

Scalable Prototypes and Dispoable Software
We auction best files to highest bidder. Auction files better than stuxnet.

The lack of definite articles and linking verbs is particularly suggestive of a Slavic background. Here's another telling signature:

We follow Equation Group traffic. We find Equation Group source range. We hack Equation Group.

So instead of using the standard "linking verb + gerund" construction that modern English provides to indicate continual (or background) activity they're using the simple present tenses of these verbs the way Slavic languages do, via the imperfective forms of these verbs.

And also:

If you want reverse, write many words, make big name for self, get many customers, you send bitcoin.

You bid against Equation Group, win and find out or bid pump price up, piss them off, everyone wins.

You like reward, you take risk, maybe win, maybe not, no guarantees.

The use of commas to link independent clauses (instead of coordinating conjunctions, like English) also happens to be very characteristic of Russian.

I'm not sold on the " 1. Make the most powerful flops-per-watt machine." success.

From my knowledge that claim only makes sense for the ever-shrinking domain of applications that haven't been ported to GPGPUs with _simpler_ cores. I also don't understand how the best "flops-per-watt" can be extrapolated from the fact that the Phi is used in top ranked TOP500 machines.

The Phi really just seems like an intermediate between CPUs and GPGPUs in the ease-of-programming vs. perf/watt pareto curve.
This is very interesting to me, because the median rent in Seattle just crossed $2K while the median condo price just reached $410K. Since you said your ignoring all the extras and just talking about payments after 20% down - that means with the current median 3.28% interest rate in Washington for 30 YR loan you would only be paying $1,433 a month way lower. Sounds like either your math is bad or you just have a good deal :)
That's exactly what they would have done before you decided to poison the well.
Native of Atlanta here. Routinely get offered mid-six-figures to move to SV/SF.

So I have enough money after mortgage I can actually have things like vacations and regular nights out and retirement and such.
> I'm surprised you think that they haven't taken up the issue of men in nursing , since its been a fairly common theme in feminist circles

They haven't, and here's the demonstration that absolutely no section of feminism is fighting for men. Try it yourself: http://femmes.gouv.fr and http://hommes.gouv.fr - It's outright blatant sexism, and the whole stack of society is just the same, full of advantages for women, €30,000 loans and €6,000 gifts for women entrepreneurs, BECAUSE OF THEIR SEX, along with many women-only benefits. The difference between men and women is that when a group or an advantage is male-only, it's not by design or by law, it's by mistake and we recognize it and work in fixing it - whereas women don't hesitate to seize the law to make some advantages based on sex, which makes them immutable once the advantage isn't necessary anymore. Women use the law to assign sex-based privileges against men, men don't do that.

Every single woman is persuaded they're victims of the males. Those who say the opposite ("I'm a feminist but not extremist, I'm all for equality") are usually still persuaded salaries are higher for men anyway, which is still up for scientific debate (I'll leave the demonstration for another comment). So basically any woman is ready to vote for more action against men than we already have.

If you look at the political party programs, at the line "Equality":

- PS (left wing): "More rights for the women! More benefits! More for females and children victims of rapists!" I like how they don't tell the sex of rapists, but they only fight for female victims. Absolutely no note of men's equality in PS's party program.

- LR (right wing): "More rights for the women in companies! Quotas for female board members! More Girls In Tech sexist groups!" Absolutely no mention of men.

- FN (extreme right): "Keep the same advantages we already have for women" (That's it, no proposal)

I've decided to choose my vote based on which party promises to NOT give more advantages to women than they already have. That party is FN, and I've started to consider that if they're right about women, they must have something right about Muslims too. And if anyone wants me to vote for a milder line, please start a #SheForHe twitter thread...

One of the OP's requirements is that this work in iTunes, which precludes making a new container format.

I also think existing containers would meet the requirements - for example, Ogg meets the requirement of both being storable and easily streamable. Also, the Matroska spec is being updated to a new version, and being standardized in the IETF CELLAR working group. I'd highly suggest participating if you'd like to help improve both the format and the specification.
In addition, PMI was not originally tax deductible. They made it tax as one of those stimulus measures, I think around 2008 or 2009 (about 1 month after I paid mine off... not that I'm bitter or anything).

Since PMI is tax deductible now that makes it effectively less expensive, and avoiding it less advantageous/important.
There's plenty of ways to get temperatures down. Bigger intercooler, even refrigerated intercooling, water or water-methanol injection in various forms, going to high alcohol content fuels, etc. Even putting a waste heat recovery unit (WHRU) between the manifold and the catalytic converter is doable.

If you want to get really crazy, imagine a WHRU on the manifold in the form of a Rankine cycle where the expander drives a compressor for the air inlet. Like a thermal turbo, if you will, giving you more charge air than NA but with much smaller parasitic power losses than a mechanical turbo.

I think together my fiance and I had about 8% down. Thing was, to rent our current house would be about $1600/month. Even a shitty 2 bedroom was $1200, mortgage with insurance and taxes is $1100. For some people it's not a matter of can we afford to, it's can we afford not to. Even if rent dropped 10% (that has never happened in my area, they were still going up in 2008-2009) it would be a better deal to have a mortgage.
The key paragraph is at the end:

> Charges [were] dropped.

> Apparently, Calhoun County deputies in Iowa never got the memo about the Supreme Court precedent protecting flag burning as a form of free speech and expression, and have perhaps unwittingly violated Martz’s civil rights when they arrested him and charged Martz with a crime.

> And that could be grounds for a lawsuit.

Hanging a flag upside-down as a protest is protected free speech. No state law can override that decision.
I appreciate the response. I am not sure I understand the parts about "root's space" and crossing between privileges, it seems like this isn't relevant with FDE?
However much you value your free time then. Which may actually be more than your regular hourly wage. Consider that most people need to be paid more to work overtime.

It also depends whether you consider cooking work or fun. Some people like doing it, others don't.

I don't make $100/hour and I do enjoy cooking, so I don't eat out that much, but I do believe for some people it makes perfect sense.
