I'm not an expert, so I might be confused, but...

To do that, wouldn't you need to construct a file that simultaneously had two collisons for the same file: one collision for the torrent sha1, and one for the hash of the torrent (the magnet uri)?

The link you gave for finding a single collision in certain types of files (rar, sh, jpg) required putting garbage into the malicious file (eg, in comments in the sh file).

They didn't mention creating collisions in torrent files.

It seems exceedingly unlikely to me that you'd be able to construct a file containing two simultaneous collisions, unless there's a spot where you can add garbage without corrupting the file, both in the torrent file and also in the hash of the torrent.

I think the RIAA would be very interested if it was that easy to create fake torrents that hash the same.

Edit: Actually your second link doesn't even show a weakness in SHA1. So you can't create a malicious torrent using that method.
I suspect OPs spreadsheet is lacking the metadata that exists in their mind to be interpreted usefully.
I think firms that offer work from home and flexible hours will be able to attract better talent in the coming years, then slowly more will offer it. Eventually people will get smart and start to ask for more money from companies that dont offer these things ("You want me to drive an hour to sit in a box so you can watch me? Sure, that's going to be an extra 20%") once that tipping point is reached things will change.
It may have been the standard once, but these days the standard seems to be 8 hours of work, plus 30 or 60 minutes for lunch.

Lots of stuff is more featureful than Markdown (rST is great, org-mode has a lot of possibilities). But the author didn't need a whole lot of formatting for the ePub. And he didn't use the original Markdown tool (or its relatives) for converting it, but Pandoc, to produce ePub and ODT.
Depending on what you're doing, LaTeX may be a better option. But if troff works for you, I'm not complaining.
A domain hacker's playground.
Pandoc can also process reStructuredText [1], which looks similar to Markdown, but has more features and a single non-ambiguous specification. Me and my co-author rejected Markdown for our book about internet memes [2][3] after a short evaluation, mainly due to ambiguities [4] and lack of features.

What about when you need to update the box? How does it handle protecting and maintaining the vm? What if there is a critical vulnerability in either the client or the server, how will you find out?

I know i'm capable of running my own VPN, but I'd rather pay someone else to manage the details and I just get an endpoint I can connect to that will always work (and will be shut off if there is a major security problem).
No, of course it's not bloody trespass. The article even says so, right at the beginning. All the focused/ambient/intentionality/information-content discussion is interesting, but irrelevant. Why must we insist on squeezing radically different new situations into existing categories that were clearly designed for something else? Can we not think for ourselves, and evaluate these things on their own merits?

I did do this back in the VB5 days and it was a proper pain. From memory I couldn't get the listbox window to draw outside of it's hosting window (needed for controls at the bottom of a window) and allow moving of the hosting window at the same time.

In the end I think I cheated and drew the list box on the parent with an option to go up or down depending on it's relative position.

Certainly was complicated.
Yeah, but is it worth the cost? I would say no.

AirVPN.
It allows to setup a stable port-forward, unlike PIA which (by design, I suppose, due to being safer) changes the port forward every connection.

Also, AirVPN allows 3 or 5 port forwards, whereas PIA allows 1.

I think your claims require a bit more backing than mere assertion. Certainly, some of the most important research (now described as "pure") was done with applications immediately in mind.

For example, Newtonian physics always had the goal of calculating artillery trajectories. Nuclear physics had the goals of energy/weapons. Probability theory, operations research, and most of our modern computational infrastructure came directly from people trying to do applied work. Nonlinear wave equations, to discuss a niche example I know well, are primarily motivated by applications in photonics.

I'm very well aware of the many anecdotes of very pure research turning out to be useful later. But there are also a huge number of anecdotes of pure research being directly motivated by providing theoretical justification for/analysis of applied work.

So I don't see any compelling reason to believe your unsupported assertions.
It's a response to a problem the customer has raised. In that context it won't look like spam.

I'm not keen on the conciliatory tone and going straight to a 'bribe' of a refund/offer/etc, but in some markets that could work. If I had it as a response I'd feel like I was getting a brush-off rather than someone was trying to engage with me and fix my problem. If someone is willing to go to the effort of making a complaint without asking for a refund then they're expressing an interest in continuing the relationship; a refund is often seen as "we don't want your custom so we're paying you to go away." Like I said though, it's very dependent on the market.
Certainly in British English it would literally mean being tied to a stake and set on fire.
Yeah I love PIA, but i've found several sites that outright block you in very "opaque" ways (my favorite is one that says the site is down for emergency maintenance when you connect from a PIA VPN IP).

It sucks, but I think PIA (and others) are going to need to start using different IPs and getting around these blocks if they want to stay competitive.

I think he says he changed styles only, which is closer to the WYSIWYM ("what you see is what you mean") idea used by Lyx, for example.

I agree that WYSIWYG type of editors are terrible, specially for big documents, but limiting them to the use of styles, is manageable (in my experience at least).

>> "Our ability to trust each other has not advanced in parallel with the technology we have created"

This is completely false given most employers have way more trust based on using tech to know what they're doing, where they are, etc.

Largest reason that "butts in seats" will go away is in fact due to tech via increasingly "smarter" tech.

My experience is that onsite work is largely driven by more trival concerns such as ego, socializing, etc.

I used Les Brown's older site (same service) to make it look like I was established. Les is well known and a national figure. They basically say whatever you want, give you toll free numbers and a business presence by next day. You get patches or messages when people call, or texts. Makes roaming real easy and Les has helped entrepreneurs and people for decades. His info was at lesbrown.com but they moved it to a seperate business site days ago. Their new site for info is behungrybiz dot com. Just click Les Brown's special offer and see what I mean. Whatever you do just make sure you tell them you want to help people. Les' people is like that and they never let anyone know who you are when they answer your lines in your name.
That way of thinking is the fundamental problem. Being in the office 20 hours instead of 40 doesn't necessarily lead to a 50% reduction in my productivity, so why should I necessarily accept a 50% pay cut?

That your HN-typical nitpicking was on top of this artisan's thread annoyed me, so I ordered a clock.
as a native US english speaker, my take is that if the method of death is specified, it's specific: burned at the stake, hung, stoned, decapitated. If I wanted to be general, I would say, "was sentenced to death." There the method is left to the reader.

> Because without new courses, many users will likely not return to the site.

In my opinion rather without free Statement of Accomplishment many users will likely not return to the site. It might be different in the US, but in Germany there is a culture of "certificate or it did not happen". I have heard that the same holds in Brazil, too. Thus being German I stopped attending Coursera courses as soon as free Statements of Accomplishment were dropped. I also have the impression that after this step the quality of courses dropped.

Originally I remember that it was seriously considered that as a way of monetizing MOOC sites there was the thought that MOOC participants are people that love to learn new stuff on their own. This is something many employers like. So the idea for monetizing was: why not allow employers give (for money) access to the list of participants to find potential employees. Does anybody know why this route to monetizing MOOCs was left?
Ask HN: Practical book about modern front end dev?
Frontend design is totally overwhelming for a backend guy. Yes, Bootstrap is a good start, but as soon as JavaScript enters the room, everything gets totally complicated. There are simply too many tools and abbreviations and I always get stuck quickly. I wish there was a book with a step-by-step project to follow that shows and uses a consistent set of tools (and does not compare tools which do a similar job). I want it to be as practical as possible.

I like VueJS and have a feeling that Webpack might help with many problems, but am actually open to everything that shows good practices and advancing with a project that interacts with an API of some sorts from simple to advanced.

I checked a couple of books, but did not find them to be fitting:

- Frontend Fundamentals, https://leanpub.com/front-end-fundamentals
- Introduction to Modern Front End Development, http://shop.oreilly.com/product/0636920043195.do, not even a book
- Book of Modern Frontend Tooling, http://tooling.github.io/book-of-modern-frontend-tooling/

A firewall is configured as part of this setup. unnattended-upgrades is also enabled, so security updates are automatically installed (which of course might be a security problem itself).

An algorithm that can give an instant solution to 7B people
At times I've been called autistic so I've often observed this in many realms of human endeavor. Many people don't trust or distrust others biased on a concrete factual reason like I do("Bob is a soup kitchen volunteer and a Catholic big brother he must be a nice guy"), it is often that they appear to have a "feeling" about a person. The positivity of this feeling is dependent on how much time they have spent in close vicinity to said person recently. It is a odd, probably measurable effect and one I've used myself to advance my career.
Would ask my colleague to comment but he's on his honeymoon. He's recently gone from creating App Store screenshots manually to using a script. For each release, creates five or so screens, each for multiple device sizes multiplied by 20+ languages. Can only imagine how much time it saves.

Many useful techniques are tied up in patents. But there are great free open source techniques too!

"Dasher" is another interesting text input technique: navigating through the library of all possible books, based on continuous pointing gestures plus language modeling, which alters the target size by the probability of the corresponding text, can be easily trained on any writing style, and automatically learns as you use it.

Unlike Graffiti-like gesture recognition systems, and like pie menus: inaccurate gestures can be compensated for by later gestures -- you can continuously and perpetually correct your errors without changing mode, canceling or repeating gestures. And it works seamlessly with any alphabet like Hiragana and additional characters without any extra learning.

unattended-upgrades is enabled by default, so security updates are handled automatically. You can also just destroy and recreate the box once in a while, without any extra cost.

Lots of hills, and will have plenty of ice and snow in a few months. It seems to me like a logical place to test the resilience of a self-driving system against some predictable corner cases.
Yes! But does it work like that? Certainly, some problems i've had insight into and had a very good answer very quickly. But if i'm stuck thinking about the problem in the shower, well i've probably been thinking about it for at least a day. Sleep is a powerful source of solutions. Realistically, it's not the next morning in the shower, it's 40 days later.

The desert is fine if that's what works for you. Most people (imho) grind away with no effect for days or weeks, and then have that flash of insight. A new thing to try. Most work is stupid, typing in stupid things to effectively prove the stupid thing doesn't work. This is more on the lever pulling edge of the spectrum. But then, eventually, there's that one insight that makes the whole thing tractable. In the shower. On a Tuesday. It only works because we've been thinking about the thing, in the background, for a long time.

But it's "psychopaths" all the way down. I like very much that you chose "to save itself". My resume is full of firms that did exactly that. The ones that are still open are muddling along, about where they were before I worked for 'em. They are firms that are "retired".

There is little that is "psychopathic" about it; it's just mildly complex mathematics, the sort used in accounting.

It's just a reflection of "space does not care".

I think it's much, much simpler. The defacto standard for a firm is everyone underfoot, whirring away. Those who deviate from this are blamed when tightening occurs. This is reported as "remote work is on the wane." That becomes a self fulfilling prophecy. Likewise, one failure in coordination and remote work is blamed.

Wanna know what's worse? Shorting the ability of many, many people to remotely work is probably the right bet.

I wouldn't say reST is all that similar looking to Markdown though: they have very different philosophies, and really only coincide on the fact that they're used for marking up plaintext documents.
