State-sponsored backdoors have been mainstreams for decades. Practically every major piece of software and hardware that's not open source has a backdoor embedded.

Even popular anti-virus programs on Windows have been jimmied to allow state-sponsored malware through
>I reckon damaging the bodywork of your ambulance or fire appliance to move another vehicle out of the way is not standard operating procedure.

I think you misread the comment. He's saying the opposite, ambulances and firetrucks could damage a citizen's car if it's blocking the emergency vehicle--not the other way around.
Yes, even things that aren't actually clickable will give you the same visual feedback as a button, the same appearance and the same behaviour when clicked. It's madness.
In real dollars (after adjusting for inflation) taxes will most easily turn a winning position into a losing one. This has always been the problem with taxing capital, often you are just taxing inflationary gains.
I haven't been specifically saving URLs on this, but it's a pattern of behaviour that's been discussed at length on the internet more than once.

Given that, I'd effectively be googling and then picking the articles that best suited my current beliefs on the topic, so honestly you'd be better informed by googling and then reading until you have your own beliefs. (this is not meant to be a disguised lmgtfy, I genuinely think you'd come out worse informed if I tried)
The Gitlab version isn't a kanban board specifically, though they say it can be visually like one (its a more general thing and, as you note, it doesn't have the specific additional features that would make it usable as an automated kanban system, so you'd have to manually enforce process controls and collect data to really get what you'd want out of a kanban board.) I'd think of it more as a customizable dashboard view over the issue list (it doesn't replace the issue list, since its strictly drawn from it.)
If a Java web application is packaged properly, then running it as simple as 'java -jar myapp.jar'.

It complements the existing issue tracker, the issues and the labels are the same. You can use issues without the board but it might be useful to give a visual overview. In meetings it is frequently easier to use a board see the many issue at a glance and to drag and drop them.

I'm not sure we want to have the software enforce limits, but I do agree that you don't want any list/column to become too long.

Mobile Advertising Under Threat as Shine Signs Its Biggest Ad-Blocking Deal
Interesting. When it comes to rates though, my interpretation of your wording is a floor of 288k/yr (at least double what was mentioned in the post right?). From what I have seen you have to do specialty work to command rates that high.
Supervisor, Project/Task (Software Development)
That's a polite denial - and in some cultures that is the proper response. Just like how some cultures require things to be asked three times.

Once because it is polite to ask - the other person, if polite, is expected to refuse. Twice because it is considered polite to ask again. Only to be denied again out of politeness. The third offer is the first "real" offer at which point the recipient can accept without being rude. A conversation might go like this:

"Would you like to stay for dinner?" - "Thank you, but I wouldn't want to intrude." - "I insist! If you are hungry, please stay." - "Thank you, but I'm fine." - "There is enough food to go around - are you sure you don't want to stay and eat?" - "I will, thank you. / I'm not feeling hungry, but thank you."

It's really quite silly. Many cultures cut it down to only having to ask twice with the first time being the expected denial and the second time expecting an honest answer.
Hit 30, realised I had probably done as much in my chosen field as I was likely to.

Got sad, considered changing careers and slowly started getting more frantic about seizing my Big Chance. In the process I discovered I'm unspeakably awkward and horrible at networking. Developed a dislike for great networkers being Machiavellian shits.

Didn't get my Big Chance.

Turned 35, had long since stopped counting birthdays, and then one day realised that imperceptibly something had changed.

I wasn't sad anymore. At least not noticably sadder than anybody else if I took the time to look. I'd come to terms with my crippling imposter syndrome, and was free of the quixotic trappings of my equally crippling Dunning Kruger. Read Jon Robson's psychopath test and decided I probably wasn't a sociopath either - I was just a bloke in his mid 30s.

Realised I should stop self diagnosing psychological conditions via the internet.

I have a great family, a good job, I wake up every morning and genuinely look forwards to spending my day doing what I do. I still harbour secret dreams of world domination, but they exist withing a framework of reassuringly tedious goals, like making sure I have enough clean pants and socks for the week.

Learned to work the washing machine. Still don't like inviting people to go for a coffee.

In GitLab you can use @ to mention people, # to mention issues, and ! to mention merge requests.
This is good advice in today's landscape (an alternative approach to my answer above). Tech matters to me, I wanted to understand many things deeply, I didn't want my knowledge to exist entirely inside of someone else's genius work (such as Unreal Engine game development where you're scripting everything/wiring up game logic/etc.). However, doing the kind of thing I did a decade ago is almost impossible with the tech expectations of today, and also, simply not really necessary.
I did consider it, as evidenced by the words "seems" and "might". As for typo - it was not it, absolutely. Note that this fact doesn't necessarily imply dishonesty, but it is a possibility. This other comment was harsher indeed but likewise for a reason. The way I see it, it seems probable that OP was deceptive and my intention was to call them out in case it was. I'm still unconvinced by the excuse. Your suggestion of how I should have handled it is exactly the option I considered inadequate. I've addressed the last sentence and don't care to address the original comment yet again. This is one of the longest threads I've been a party to on here, and no offense to you, but I'm not sure it was worth it.

EDIT: Admittedly I did assert there was a theme.
Because, with the popularity of Linux, people have forgotten how varied unix-like OSes once were. I'm sure the grandparent poster will mention things like how it stores configuration differently, etc, but that's only not-unix-like to someone who hadn't used a handful of different commercial Unices back in the 1990s.

Yes, because the things you fear as a result of social anxiety are inflicted on you. They are not things you can control, that's what makes them scary.

Your definition of "casino" bet is bogus. Requiring an investment to be a hedge against another investment to not be considered a bet is arbitrary and nonsensical.

Every investment is a bet something will or will not happen (e.g. bonds are a bet the issuer will pay).

And it works quite well from them. Yes, people on HN and on internet will complain...

Also it could be that customer support is just overrated.... The problem is that 95% of support calls / issues are anyway just people complaining about things which are not at all related to the actual Google service.

But, on the other hand, hackers which try Google Cloud and are bitten by lack of Google support do have influence on decision making process in big corporations.
>Why isn't this already is practice given ML advances in recent years?

Well it would be nice to first validate the results somewhere else (peer review should actually be completed) and no doubt some real world trials proceed and their results evaluated. This is what any FDA approval, at a minimum, would entail. Keep in mind what the author's themselves note in how this study may differ from the "real world":

"One limitation of this study is that cases submitted for TCGA and TMA databases might be biased in terms of having mostly images in which the morphological patterns of disease are definitive, which could be different from what pathologists encounter at their day-to-day practice."

Putting this into practice also requires looking at the bigger picture; not just the accuracy of the diagnosis vs. humans.

For example I have found that in studies doctors are much more conservative in their diagnosis than an academic algorithm with no implication on patient outcome. For instance if the question is a) "cancer" or b) "not cancer" the doctor, fearing patient harm, malpractice suits, career derailment, will be biased to identifying "a) cancer" because the perceived costs of a false positive (treating for a nonexistent cancer which may have significant ill effects) are lower than a false negative (not treating a real cancer leading potentially to death). This will reduce the human doctor's accuracy on diagnosis.

What the "right" bias is in an individual case can bring in many more factors and moral questions out of scope for this study.

This is not to argue that tools like these should not be developed and utilized but practical application is often more difficult than just solving the technology challenge. I'm certain that we'll see many advances in healthcare due to ML.
I'm not sure what comparison you're trying to make. These derivatives are typically used modify the cashflows of those instruments for different issuer/investor preferences.

The vast majority (>90%) of that OTC derivative figure is interest rate andFX swaps and the gross market value of those swaps are less than $15 trillion. The aggregate notional principal has also been declining for the last several years.

Here's an example trade:

I'm a European company and I've determined there's demand for my USD fixed rate bonds in America, but I need EUR to invest in my business and my profits are linked to interest rates so it's less risky for me to pay a floating interest rate.

So to reduce my risk, I need to swap the bond cashflows into EUR and the fixed rate payments into floating rate payments.

I issue $100 of bonds to US investors, and then I execute a $100 notional fixed-floating FX swap with a bank. That bank then executes a $100 notional fixed-fixed FX swap with another counterparty and a $100 notional (EUR equiv) rate swap with a different counterparty.

So we have $300 notional value of OTC swaps and a $100 bond. And if we take out the central counterparty, the three swaps actually net into a single $100 swap.
I wrote myself a web application called Tamarind that runs on my web server for managing throwaway mail aliases.

"Tamarind" == "Throw-Away Mail Alias Randomization Is Not Defeatable"

:)

http://www.kylheku.com/cgit/tamarind/tree/README

I log in with my IMAP4 user name and password, and then get a simple UI with a table of my aliases, and attached memo strings (which can contain URL's that get converted to links). I can edit these, change their order (select multiple, move to top or bottom, etc) create new ones and delete. When I create an alias, it goes "live" instantly, and when I delete one, it goes dead. Dead means that the address is "unroutable" at the SMTP level; it bounces.

I keep a few aliases from Tamarind in my wallet, in case I have to hand out an e-mail address in "3D life" to some untrustworthy outfit to be eligible for some promo or whatever.
It had to have something, right?

There's no 'standard', but KDE is used more often and therefore has fewer bugs. XFCE works fine. If you want Gnome, well, I haven't tried it, but they always welcome patches.
Cost of living adjusted salaries are terrible for remote employees
These points are not mutually exclusive.

Most on hacker news or security twitter or slashdot or whatever would agree that the NSA has serious vulnerabilities and have terrible policies/practices, but the narrative being pushed to the average american via the usual channels is most assuredly that the NSA is infallible (or that it's only fallible due to pesky things like privacy).

This article is on Reuters, which means it wasn't meant for people who know what elliptic curves are, it was meant for people who still call Comcast to restart their router. Given that, I think it's safe to say there's a distinct narrative being pushed here where it's heavily implied that leakers are the main threat to the NSA's security.

Google's Chromebook End of Life Policy stops support after 5 years
Hi Ladytron, would you care to share what your startup is?
I meant tailored access literally. I assume that the name "Tailored Access" comes from the idea that access is tailored, i.e. custom fit for the specific task at hand.

I work at a small IT company that does website development for small businesses around the city. Our projects usually last around 1 to 4 months. We use JetBrains YouTrack with all open projects showing on one big board.

Each week we meet with project owners (somebody at the client company). They give us a list of tasks they want completed this week and we go over tasks we finished last week.

After the project is done, we move to only working on one-off issues they send. Usually bugs or small new feature requests. A simple issue tracker would work fine here, but we still have weekly meeting with our boss to show that we actually did work last week.

We already use self-hosted GitLab for our code, so I want to try out this new board feature to see if it meets our needs.
Not sure if I'm reinventing the wheel, but incidentally I've been working on this lately:

It's like basic traditional configuration management, but it's two-way: it takes the difference between the user-managed configuration and the current system state, and rectifies this difference by either editing the configuration or the system. A second invocation is a no-op. If your configuration is in version control, this allows easily tracking any unaccounted changes to the system.
I wouldn't dare...I was too cocky
Yeah yeah, absolutely I agree.

I'm also saying that (or at least putting the idea out to test drive it) it's a good time for us to shift our language to talk about things that, in some deeper way, are politically and civically just.
There's a lot of existence disproof to that statement. Amazon, Google, Facebook, etc. have thousands of developers doing better than that, most of which wouldn't be described as specialists.
That's... amazing. Congratulations.

Out of curiosity, what legal entity are you using?

I didn't say they were mutually exclusive; that is also a rebuttal to an argument nobody is making. I'm saying they're orthogonal to the question of who's responsible for leaking these NSA tools.

A meteor isn't going to hit the Earth because you asked someone something. The worst that can happen because you decide to ask someone something? You go up to say something to them, stutter a few times, throw up in your mouth a little, and then they say "No".

(You're free to think that's worse than not asking in the first place, of course, and therefore not bother, but then you give up on the possibility of "Yes". I'm terrible at adhering to this advice, but I know I want some "Yes"es in my life and there's only one way to get them.)
I definitely agree with you! The first computer I could call my own was a hand-me-down eMachines eTower 733i Mini-tower desktop with a 733MHz Celeron, upgraded to 256MB of RAM, and a 20GB HDD I was gifted around 2004. I installed a copy of Windows 2000 on it and used it daily for another 2-3 years. I miss the minimal, no-frills UI that caused little-to-no performance hiccups. And I definately feel similar about the Classic MacOS "Platinum" interface (Mac OS 8 thru 9). Despite both sharing what many percieve as a "boring" gray color scheme, the 3D look of the buttons and UI elements made things easy to see and understand their function. I currently work at a company where I find myself often using monitors connected to KVM switches, often with improperly adjusted contrast and brightness. Modern flat web application GUIs in this setting are barely usable, forcing the user to struggle to determine where a button or text area's boundaries are. Though I have to hope this environment is not the norm for 90% of users, I wish modern interface design encouraged such "GUI robustness" and functional minimalism whereby the UI remains functional despite the display's configuration. A similar poor-contrast situation could arise when viewing a display from an improper angle or in a very bright environment.
"I assert that, whether someone agrees or not, Snowden was doing something that was actually right."

Yes, Snowden did 'something' that was right.

But Snowden also did 'other things' that were wrong.

Snowden released information on how the NSA spies on adversaries, like Putin, who has 3 000 nuclear warheads pointed at us.

There is no 'public good' in that information, it's basically treason.

Which is the odd paradox about the Snowden revelations - there was a lot of info that arguably was in the 'public good'.

But if you save a baby and kill a baby in the same day ... you still go to jail.

The fact that Snowden released tons of data that had little to do with NSA domestic surveillance really changes the tone and nature of his crime, and it's not good to see so many come to his defence because he also 'saved a baby' the time that he 'killed a baby'. It really ads an odd dimension to the story.
Show HN: Node Object compression library
The problem is that by doing this, you have made an operation that should be instantaneous - readLineFuture: () => Future[Line] - into something that now has built in lag.

I.e. you've pulled the side effects (blocking) from the future to the present.
It is, in the sense that it's not indiscriminately owning up every vulnerable host on the Internet the way a botnet operator would.

Hey guys, I started this project, and it's now at a usable stage, but I would really enjoy some criticism and some input on how to further optimize this.

This library works in the same way as Protocol buffers do - schema-based compression of JS objects. With the twist that it doesn't rely on proto files, but rather attempts to re-use JS/JSON DB Schemas (DRY). Also, this has NO dependencies!

I too live a couple hours north of Phoenix at the moment, and I think it's a real shame that Phoenix is the part of the state getting this Bay Area outflow -- good entry/mid level jobs are hard to find in northern AZ, and you're right that it's a much nicer place to live than Phoenix. I would much rather move to SF than to Scottsdale, even with the discounted housing.
Thanks, I hope the update goes well.
Intrusion detection false alarms can be a problem if you run anything like a web crawler. I have one running at "sitetruth.com", which is a site rating system hosted on a leased server. (Not a cloud service, a leased rackmount server). One of the things it does is to find the home page of a site by trying "example.com" and "www.example.com", with and without HTTPS. Some sites will block access for 30-45 seconds if those requests are made too fast.

About once a year, there's a serious intrusion complaint, as the crawler, which obeys robots.txt, examines about 20 pages on a site in a few seconds. No more than three connections at once, but some sites are touchy. The server leasing company sends me a warning letter, I reply and call tech support, and there's no big problem.

I can recommend leasing servers from Codero as an alternative to dealing with the Borg of Mountain View. I've been a customer for five years, and nothing bad has happened. They now have "cloud services" too, but I haven't used them.
So what's the support process when you screw someone but they can't hit the front page of a social media site?

it's probably not going to change her answer to your invitation.

Not a woman, but I suspect this is true & a good point. Coffee is ambiguous, and it seems unlikely you'd be turned down because I would probably enjoy hanging out with you but this MIGHT be a date so NO.

She (or he) might wonder "is this meant to be a date?", but you can concretely answer that question just in your behavior. The way you act will telegraph your intentions. Stammer a compliment about her/his eyes, it's a date. Wave them over to your table when they walk in, say hi, don't even get up, it's just friends.
