I feel the same about you.
I wonder how this leak affects their "vulnerabilities equities process".

The publicly available data would suggest that thus-far NSA-hoarded vulnerabilities are definitively known to actors who appear willing to act against US interests.

Vendor disclosure means those vulnerabilities can be patched and US interests can cease being vulnerable, but could also confirm NSA awareness of vulnerabilities - which could in turn cause attribution concerns for past or present operations the NSA is undertaking or has undertaken using these vulnerabilities (in addition to providing additional credibility to the leaker).

What a tangled web.
I've had the exact same problem every time with Nvidia drivers when updating ubuntu.

Despite this, it's not too hard to fix, and I'm much more scared of forced Microsoft OS updates though.

Win7 will be my last Microsoft OS. The way they've been trying to trick people into updating is disgusting.
Only if I stash pop in a few minutes time (stash, quick fix another branch, stash pop) . Mostly commit, or move to new clone
I don't understand "not ready to commit"; what's the issue with interim commits? If you're working under a new branch, which you should be anyway, there's no harm, unless you squash them under inappropriate circumstances.
>No point being animated then, as it's unlikely to be accurate.

The point isn't to show how the pacing would look if you lined up all the winners. It's to show the difference in finishing times throughout the century plus.
Has the open source world EVER produced a UX that was user friendly for non-tech folks? I'm really drawing a blank here.

There is mounting evidence[1][2][3][4][5] that only people with known vitamin deficiencies and the supervision of a doctor should take vitamins. They're not even just a placebo -- in many cases they can be dangerous.

It seems as though you'll be capitalizing on what is increasingly revealing itself to be a shady, snake-oily industry. You actually have irresponsible, untrue, and potentially dangerous statements on the front page of your website, including the ideas that people should take vitamin D[6] or that Omega 3s boost brain function[7].

Animations and factoids like this are somewhat deceiving. They imply a message that human runners have improved constantly since 1896 without taking into account the fact that in this period the running surface has continually improved, running shoes have gone through significant incremental improvements, starting blocks have been added and timing equipment have become more accurate.

As an example, everyone heralds Jim Hines for breaking 10 seconds in 1968 but not many acknowledge the fact that the Mexico 1968 was the first Olympic Games to use the Tartan track surface in athletics instead of what was essentially hardened sand.
Holy Hell, you are right. I actually have the distinguished privilege of having one of my NYTimes comments be a "Times Pick", meaning the ed. board actually read it and recommended it for insight, I suppose.

My comment was mostly meta, calling out people for missing the point of an op-ed. The op-ed was from a privacy/civil liberties person about why a "no buy" list for guns would be a bad idea. He wasn't arguing on the merits for or against gun ownership, just that these secret lists on which LEO acts are dangerous.

Every comment was something along the lines of "What about my right not to be shot in the streets?!" - I tried to point this myopic view out, and every reply to my comment was "What about my right not to be shot in the streets?!".

As a smallish-government liberal (Public services are well and good but government should be kept in check by a powerful and vigilant population) I get torn up whenever I defend gun rights or spending reductions on that website.

Actually, AFAIK, rigid layout on emissive scenes doesn't solve the problem, whereas flexible layout on reflective (i.e., eInk) screens at least narrows the retention gap between digital and hardcopy.
It's a little surprising to me there isn't a doping/nutrition bump in there.
I support this change, but it applies to the zoning that exists. If it passes, NIMBY efforts will shift to down zoning. Down zoning has already happened in many cities (including San Francisco), but it could be taken further.
Microservices take all the SOA problems and turn them up to eleven, as far as I can tell. It intertwines decomposition of your system (sometimes good) with network communication (rarely good) and additional ops management (never good).

Yanking out the major chucks of independent functionality into separate deployable services makes sense at a large enough scale and for large enough, independent enough components. But you would only do so out of necessity, not as an initial architecture.

And yet here we are.
Because you don't have control over what Google does. They may kill TPU altogether leaving your work irrelevant.
My point was that anecdotes are pretty useless. Some installations run brilliantly, others are a huge pain. After all, we're not talking about a single distro on identical hardware.

To answer your questions- Linux is my primary OS, at work and at home. I don't recall every single issue, especially way-back, but traditionally, I create problems by doing something stupid.

Maybe I'm just lucky with updates, but I stick to popular distros, and I specifically seek out Linux-friendly hardware. Others surely have a different experience. It just felt like OP was painting with too broad a stroke; their statement was valid in 2003, but not so much these days.
I don't think OP is claiming they're more readable in general, but for tiny scopes where they're ghosted in a line or two I'm not sure I see the point in being super-descriptive, either.

(Although I wouldn't use `xn`, I'd use `node`. `e` for `event` is fine.)
So 10.81 is not the expected one this time. Also in the future how far can it reduce? Wow.
Is there a problem with a system that's CUDA compatible?

CUDA seems to me like the only simple SIMD-type computing system that's fairly straightforward to program and understand at this point.

Drop-in CUDA compatibility seems like a good thing.
There's also the rackmount version in case you want to put it in a colo.
> RISC only made sense when CPU clock speeds were at rough parity with central memory speed, on-chip I-caches were limited, pipelines were short, and compilers were only good at modest optimizations.

No, RISC was a response to CPUs becoming faster relative to memory access. Smaller decode logic meant more die space for registers and cache.
Wow, that's kinda stupid. Aren't there better ways to make login available but out of the way?
Maybe there should be a major journal published with purely the best studies done that had negative results.
By 'most of the hard sciences', you seem to have chosen a sliver of one of the hard sciences, which plenty of people in that science think is just smoke and mirrors. If a 'general audience abstract' is a good idea, it shouldn't be balked at because of a single theoretical field which is quite controversial. Let other journals handle those papers :)
When I saw the premise of the book I was initially turned off, fearing an attempt at trivialization of the ML subject matter, but after reading the intro I kind of like it. It's intuitive and would work well as an introduction for hackers.

It seems a good way in ML is to hack your way around libraries until you get the feeling, and only after that start reading up on theory or doing some ML classes. The other way around is dry.

Bob Beamon set his insane long jump record there as well.

Edit: But looking at the all-time list [1], Jim Hines' run is still pretty impressive, surrounded by times run some ~50 years later.

It depends.

I'm skeptical `documentAndPdfSavedOnDiskJsonStates` is a useful variable name. Without context it's hard to say. It sounds like you have a couple of collections of states (state names?) for various document types.

PDFs are already documents, so that seems redundant. It already sounds like `savedDocumentStates` and `thumbnailStates` would be adequate--but again, without any context, it's impossible to know if that would be adequate.

(Personally I'd have a type => state mapping and skip them altogether, and use a different form of classification altogether.)
Was wondering why the 1896 time of 12s was so slow - found this pic of the race - https://www.olympic.org/news/speed-merchant-burke-shines-in-.... Running surface, shoes, starting blocks.. exactly. Today there are 8th graders that can run faster than 12s 100M.
I'd love an alternative to CUDA.

The problem is that as far as I can see, OpenCL is in no way that. Basically, OpenCL gives me the impression that the oceans of boiler plate required both make development hard and effectively locks you into a specific vendor also since the boiler-plate is going to be setting things up for one's specific vendor.
(It confuses me that someone even asked the question. Isn't it obvious?)

I don't think Xi Jinping started the anti-competitive and censorship heavy approach in China.

I also don't think Donal Trump, as wrong and misguided as he may be, can approach even 1% of what China does.

So you're just trolling here.
You can also implement the Z-buffer in software fairly cheaply, allowing you to keep working in 2D.

It sounds like it would dis-incentivize market liquidity even more than Prop 13 already does.
Is the development open though (serious question, I don't know how they do it with go)?

Look at android, it's a closed project that the occasionally release some source code for. If google decided to drop android then it's a critical blow because there isn't much of a community around it.
Getting to use C# on a fast runtime, none of those things you mention allow me C#.
Really? I thought layout of a book (software) has nothing to do nature of screen (emissive or reflective). By a flexible layout I hope you meant the need to reflow the text, because it is the text that is usually hard to scale across a spectrum of devices/orientations.

While I do understand that the nature of screen has an "impact" on the book reading experience (or any software experience), and thus on its device sales, but I'm not sure how the screentype would affect someone's memorizability of an ebooks independent of the layout in use: flexible or rigid. That sounds a bit far fetched.

Kindly quote the source of that claim/original research.
I also like the "interesting" experimentation with starting technique.
Unless you take the voxel draw every cube approach, I can't see how you can account for every possible shape and position. Taking the last example further what if the red box continued below the purple box. The next best thing I could think of, without going 3D, was to split each box into layers.
> Use generics at the method level, I find intolerably ugly

Then you shouldn't be using .NET, generic methods are extremely common and especially elegant here since it can work with any POCO which can also be reused elsewhere in any library that works with POCOs. The Generic method is what enables the Typed API without adding any artificial artifacts and wrappers. It's intuitive as to what the lambda is typed to and what value is returned - it's definitely more idiomatic and much preferred over Active Record implementations.

In your Example `Dog` ends up being a .NET 1.0-style non-serializable bloated Active Record inheriting from a heavy base class that's non-reusable and coupled to your implementation that you're forced to create for each Type you want to use. It's also not clear what DB connection is being used, what its life-cycle is and whether it's being reused across different types, how you can create transactions spanning multiple types, etc - in Micro ORM's its clear, you use the same db connection to query any Type.

There's a reason why most modern Micro ORM's are mapping to clean disconnected POCO's and don't force unnecessary wrappers for legacy inhibitive abstractions like this.
> Maybe implemented in terms of a tax at time-of-sale that takes away however much profit was made due to property-price inflation and just hands it to the city instead.

Apart from being unjust, that approach would completely break the market and put people out on the street. You buy a house for $200k; its value increases to $400k; you sell it, and the city takes $200k, leaving you with $200k. You now cannot afford any of the houses currently for sale for $400k, even though the additional $200k you don't have would just go to the city, and the seller just gets the $200k you actually have.

Typical price controls affect both sides of the transaction, so the house value can't increase, or doesn't increase faster than a certain limit. That at least doesn't directly prevent people from selling one house and buying another comparable house.

To answer your original question, though: to what extent do the areas in most dire need of housing have any undeveloped land? Those areas don't have much undeveloped land; they have underdeveloped land. If you had price controls on undeveloped land but not on developed land, at some point you'd end up with a price inversion where a given property with a house on it has less value than the same property without the house. At which point someone wanting to extract the increased value could demolish the house and then sell the land at market value.
HUH??? I was absolutely civil.

If you think "ultraleftist" is an insult then perhaps you should moderate some right wing group.

Ultraleftist is a label for extreme left views, which the writer's claims clearly did.

Calling a Democrat "Democrat" or a Republican "Republican" is not ad hominem, so your moderation on my comments is, in my opinion, profoundly wrong.
Generally speaking, the downzoning already happened decades ago.

In CA, various state laws require that cities zone some parcels for new housing. Often, that housing never happens because cities can disapprove even zoning-compliant projects on those parcels. The by-right law is intended to fix that problem.

Unfortunately, the by-right law does not seem likely to pass the legislature. If you support it, you should call and email your state reps.
Can someone please explain what's wrong with the classical UNIX sockets and pipes that they need to invent and (re)invent dbus, bonobo, now bus1?
Could you please show me the exact words which in your opinion constitute "personal attacks"?

I promise to eschew them if by any chance my words can be reasonably construed as being an ad hominem.
There is a domain specific case indeed, would've been better perhaps to offer a bit of context: https://speakerdeck.com/amorroxic/reactive-resumes - we deal with different types of documents then pdf conversion as standard in, followed by parsing, ai, analysis.

All the time. For many websites, the very first comment is a succinct and correct refutation of the article or blogpost itself. And that is why comment sections are disappearing. People really don't mind "trolls" or whatever all that much. They do mind being proven wrong.
This article draws meaningless conclusions. "More innovative"? What does that even mean?

I still miss using my Palm III. It did one thing and did it really well. I switched to the Android G1 from the (rather buggy) Treo 680 when the first Android phone came out. Sadly, I trusted my Palm III more with my contacts (and the backup synced on Palm Desktop and that backed up to external media) than I do Android what with Google+ integration wrecking the Gmail Address Book and resulting in frequent duplicated or lost contacts.

As an alternative, you could use strict.
Depending on jurisdiction and the particulars of the sale and who you sold it to, I think it's possible you could be charged as an accomplice if the exploit is used in a crime. For example, if you had any reason to believe the individual or organisation you sold it to might use it illegally, and someone singles you out after they do use it illegally, I don't think it would be hard for a prosecutor to make a case. I also don't think under those particular circumstances that's necessarily a bad thing. IANAL though.

The purpose of community is to express common interests & shared values. Hackernews tends to express a shared value around Elon Musk. That is perfectly fine. It's something that should be respected even if you have differing views.

I bet a lot of the reason people down vote you about Elon Musk is that maybe you don't accept him as a "hacker" and don't see the way he's challenging the status quo and pushing technology, cars, transportation and energy systems into the future. Hacking the auto industry, the solar industry, the space industry. What he does very much fits the "Ethos" of what makes hackernews hackernews..
are you saying you need a framework to send an email or that somehow that script is not trivial?

Maybe you are saying that it's not just email, you have to interact with some other services ... ok so it's a bit more complex and you go for a framework to handle that but your problem/task has just been reduced from building a complete REST api to reacting to a handful of events and taking appropriate actions.
Postgrest is an executable that you start and you have an api right that second, it's not like it's another framework that you need to code against.
Show HN: How to Open and Repair a Creative T4W Satellite Speaker
A hypothetical social-discussion model I've been meaning to build an MVP of:

1. there are replies and up-voting, but no down-voting;

2. you can classify a comment reply, at time of posting, as a "rebuttal";

3. up-voting a rebuttal comment will also be considered as down-voting its parent;

4. the aggregate score of a subthread is calculated as a Euclidean distance, with all the positively-scored comments as dimensions. Thus, if you've got one great comment made in response to a bad comment, the thread will stay un-collapsed; if you've got two equally-great comments, the thread will rise, etc. (Likewise, if you've got good discussion happening in response to a really bad post, the discussion's value will still propel the post to the hot page.)
An editor. Behind every great writer was an even better editor.

For technical documentation, it's actually better to hire a really good technical writing editor than a tech writer. Have the engineer spew out the right ideas, and then the editor puts in the magic that makes it an effective read. It's an easier process than trying to teach the subject to a tech writer.
I'm not making any claims about whether the notation is good or bad, but just because something is the standard doesn't mean it's therefore good.

And the person you're replying to seems to be well aware it is a standard notation: "Can I rant on how bad much mathematical notation is in terms of usability?"
> If it passes, NIMBY efforts will shift to down zoning.

For once, CEQA would actually protect the environment: Nowadays, downzoning requires an impact study. There's no way any credible study could conclude that promoting sprawl is good for the planet.

Well, for starters they're a bolt-on that doesn't fit with the actual classic Unix philosophy.

The T5 and T|X have a very similar screen and no slider. If your T3 wears out (which the slider is known to do), either might make a serviceable replacement. I also had good success migrating to an older iPod Touch in 2012, although if you use Plucker for reading on the Palm, you'll want to migrate to EPUB at the same time - that's no fun, but while Tomes was tolerable on iOS at that time, I would be surprised to learn it's still supported, especially with the Plucker format.
I don't think that's the answer. Maybe sanctions or other disincentives that would encourage China to play by the rules? When China joined the WTO they made a commitment that they are blatantly disregarding. What we have now is not an even playing field, and if it continues to go unchecked the US will continue to lose this game.
I recently learned that in the early part of the 20th century the runners would dig their own holes to start out of. Sometimes they were even given trowels.
