Hi, I'm looking for an internship (6 months/February) as a software developer & data-science, preferably in SF. Shoot me an email!

PS: I'm currently in SF during this month (September). Shot me an email or a tweet (@ben_derv) to meet up!
Car manufacturers have tried that. It doesn't work, at least not at the high end of the market. There's always another competitor willing to eat your lunch by giving customers something closer to what they actually want. Their products are 1 – 3 orders of magnitude more expensive than Apple's so the market operates in a totally different way.
I think that's not a problem with the framework, but the CDN link in a box that should instead be scrolling unto itself. Still worth a GitHub issue to get fixed...
I have never been to burning man but heard about it from friends who have been going for years. They say that people who are used to having closed boundaries around them, for example the Paris Hiltons of the world, have impacted on the bohemian nature of the event.
Overqualified should be read as "we want someone who works for peanuts". The fact of life is that older people do not like being taken advantage of.
>If you mount the CD, /self.pdf is a recursive entry that contains the entire CD - it, too, should open in your favorite PDF reader.

I didn't even know this was possible in ISO 9660 format. Seems like my next weekend project will be implementing an ISO reader... I wonder if JSMESS has support.
If you want to talk front-line production support, dealing with extremely time critical issues whilst remaining calm sysadmins then they skew 35+ where I work. We need guys who can handle the pressure. They're also the guys asking me for lab servers and training so they can keep up with what's coming next. Some people just enjoy the job and learning new things.
Let's just call it "Group 14 Valley"
This doesn't happen. Dealers aren't stupid. They sell stolen bikes for market price.
$390 + $80 vehicle pass + fees.

Get real, they are ALL jet-setters & rich kids.

It's the red hats vs the blue hats. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0684186/ The haves vs the have mores.

Yes I'm a little bit down on the whole burning man thing.

You want peace & love? Have a solar panel installation party. Plant trees party. Pick up sea trash party.

Not a check out my dreads, tattoo & flashy bicycle party.
Its not about the children. Never was.

This is just where society originates from, instincts allowing for the forming of social contracts.
For example if you exchanged resources with another party (your wife) for drugs and hugs, both sides would want for this contract to last.
So you need a third party, which can be forced by both sides to enforce the contract.

Enter the pedophiles and gays. Your wife is going to make certain you hate them and she can switch of that hate, via sanctioning there existence (e.g. church/political inclination). That instinct-switch is as important to her, as beauty is to you.

Now, ten years into a cellphone society, where even thought offenders soon will be blatant obvious by constant NN observation all that remains are the instincts.
The function is gone, but the gears of this bio-machinery still churn on.

I miss those days, where i still felt burning hatred for some Gears and was involved in affairs of the species in general. Life was so much easier if one just glued arguments to what one feels.

I looked into this whole messy affair, because one of those bastards tried to get on my younger brother when i was young. And for such there should be punishment, even a lifetime in prison.
But though crimes, like a deprecated bio-machine, masturbating to a Victorian child-labour-sweatshop , to prosecute those is foolish.
Like I said, delta food is fine on international flights (maybe I'm easy to please). Whenever I use an airline lounge, I just envision it's a pretty lame way to make up for the fact that you aren't flying direct.

Quality of the seats for delta is good for comfort+, which is in the same price range as regular economy for 'nice airlines'.

Choice of entertainment has been the in-flight system loaded with a bunch of new and popular movies for free, which is good enough for me.

Price is always in competition for the cheapest. There is a reason the airline is so large...

Not sure what you mean about flexibility of carry-on...
There were huge complaints from viewers. Interesting write-up here:

New York v. Ferber

>>>The court quoted academic research, which concluded that “Because the child's actions are reduced to a recording, the pornography may haunt him in future years, long after the original misdeed took place.”

---

United States v. Blinkensop, 606 F.3d
1110, 1117 (9th Cir. 2010) (affirming the sentencing judge, who stated)

>>> “it is a clear reality . . . that every time one of these web sites is opened and every time one of these images is viewed, additional harm is visited upon the victim.

-----

FBI and DOJ routinely state the same in Sentencing, victim impact, and other official court and prosecution documents and activities

The idea that simply viewing child porn victimizes the child, is infact the legal foundation for its prohibition

It is clear and well established fact
I took his "feel physical pain in your intestines and chest" to mean, in part, that "sinking feeling in the gut" which is due mainly to the stimulation of the Vagus Nerve[1].

These physical sensations follow the emotion (of loneliness) itself--an affective experience preceding, and triggering, the physical after-effects--which PieterH did not speak much about. I wonder why.

The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy Game – 30th Anniversary Edition
The Diane Rhem Show did an episode about this topic last year (http://thedianerehmshow.org/shows/2015-07-13/the-americans-w...), I recall one of the guests saying “you can make your own website accessible if you take a little bit of time. It's not a big deal.“ I haven’t made web videos in a while, so I’ve never looked into this, but your post caused me to do a bit of research. My conclusion is that it doesn’t look so easy, you either need to pay for a license for software that can do it, upload your video to a 3rd party web app, or learn about captioning formats in various codecs. There's some free options listed here http://www.washington.edu/accessibility/videos/free-captioni..., but they require you to upload videos to their website. There is an application on Debian called ksubtile, which allows you to add SRT subtitles for the Matroska container, but it’s in the unstable repo. I really wish there was a free, GUI based, cross platform application, that supports many common codecs and containers out there, but my short search hasn't found any.

I took the liberty of looking at the webpages of a few of the Diane Rhem guests through the lynx web browser, Ironically it looks like some amounts of content on one of the guests pages are completely inaccessible to the blind due to embedding text into images without using the alt tag.

So I wouldn’t feel bad. Apparently web accessibility is an issue disability advocates are having trouble with too. I wish there was specific guidance on this issue. If someone finds any I’d like to see it.
Why assume that? May people have been robbed and are angry. many more people have a rational fear of theft and are upset. The people care.
Nah, not rude =-)

I consider the math I do at work to be somewhat advanced. Statics, dynamics, a touch of thermo dynamics, etc. But if you are talking like quantum mechanics or NASA JPL level math, then yeah I totally agree those topics would definitely be better learned in a proper environment.
I went to Burning Man in 2012 and had a blast, but there was definitely an air of "us and them". The poor nerds in a 99' camper bus versus the wealthy in their camps, with air conditioning, food, drugs, and women. I'm sad that the vandalism occurred, but happy the conversation has started. These people are parasites, and they're trying to recreate Burning Man in their own image of wealth and decadence. It's time for a change and I really hope the organizers listen.
(Tedious disclaimer: my opinion only, not speaking for anybody else. I'm an SRE at Google.)

We expect and accept a high false-negative rate. Our interview process is optimised for zero false-positives at the cost of many false-negatives. This is a deliberate choice. So yes, I would expect to see a significant rate of rejections of people who are clearly qualified.

The sort of people that we want to hire are likely to come back for another try anyway, and the long-term effect of this process seems to be doing what it was supposed to.
Jumps Hey - look down there! Check out the sharks! Cool!
I'm disappointed that there's still not a popular federated social service like this. I know diaspora tried and that there are other projects that have attempted work like this. I know that they'll never work until they're simple enough that my mom can use them, but I wonder if something like tor2web for a decentralized social network could offer an entry point for users who didn't want to operate their own federated node. Can a decentralized social service grow large enough to be useful without a dedicated growth / marketing team?
Kinda cool for business class folks. But if your flying business class on almost any international flight you can press a button at any time to get whatever drink mixed up for you.
I suspect that this is not due to there being anything morally wrong with what they are doing but that instead of going after the perpetrators, which might be very difficult, we target the economy which pushes them to commit the crimes in the first place. Although it might be imperfect, from what I understand sometimes this is the best way to get results.

In a way it's similar to prostitution, where there might be nothing morally wrong with selling or buying sex, but it (potentially?) promotes human trafficking. I doubt that'd the only reason it's illegal though, at least in the US.
>We're not talking about a 25 year old filming his 17 year old girlfriend giving him head here.

Yes we are. What you describe is child pornography. Depending on jurisdiction, the girlfriend cannot consent. Even in jurisdictions where she can consent, it is still child porn. Even in situations where the 17 year old is acting alone, it is child porn. Even in situations where the 17 year old draws a picture of herself masturbating, it is child porn.

I guest you are correct, my comment should read:

s/rape/depiction in a sexual manner/g

Either way, my point is that we should be careful of the language we use, and recognize that child pornography is far broader than circumstances that would generally be considered "rape" are. My phrasing was sub-optimal due to my other problem with the conflation of statutory rape and normal rape.
FWIW, the first time I went a bunch of long-term burner friends were all "Man, this all gotten too big and has sold out! You should have been here 5 years ago!".

There were about 7,000 people there that year, 1998...
I think you touched many very important points. One of which being that the FBI and NSA aren't even aligned in goals and interests. Let alone the FBI and your company!1

A couple years ago I attended a talk at an Amazon hosted security conference where a guest speaker was an FBI agent. Of course for the Q&A section Snowden revelations was a hot topic.

All the agent could do was assure us that the FBI has your best interests at heart and you should share data with them and engage them because they swear they are different than the NSA.

Perhaps this is true. But at the end of the day people still see both the NSA and FBI as "the man". The way to distinguish yourself is not to tell a story of valour and honour by working for the agency but to instill control mechanisms and channels of transparency. This article just validates my belief that the FBI still doesn't "get it".
And whether the associated videos are or aren't watched has no effect on that. Watching them causes no additional harm.
yea idiots in the desert fighting over how you should set up camp and how much money you spend doing it (you spent more money than us so we have the moral high ground) sounds like a really complex issue lol

They're idiots, in the desert, fighting over stupid shit.

Not to mention all the other shit that goes on there. From what I've heard, most of those dumb hippies just dump all their trash on the ground and pretty much just pack up and leave it, and other's come by after its all over and clean it all up. Radical self reliance lol.
This computer is cheating in a scary way
Very much a bad analogy because high speed pursuits have their own share of issues in their practice.
oh come on, how about stopping trophy hunting of lions?

it annoys me that some western people are so apt to play the game of blaming China, just to take the moral high ground, but not to actually solve problems.

I'm not saying that China is not blamable. it is. but so is any other country, group, even individual. the media bias is just disgusting. can we please try to understand each other and figure out ways to solve problems?

>I can now see a small comment saying it's running in O(n^2) and there is no technical reason why it needs to.

What technical reason?!!? That was my point! In your comment there is an implicit assumption that an O(N^2) algorithm is a potential problem simply because it is an O(N^2) algorithm. That's just wrong. Would you put a comment like: "This is O(n). Might cause issues if the 'c' gets too big"? It's useless. __IF__ it is a potential problem, your laziness simply created a time-bomb that will blow up in somebody's face later. Your comment isn't helping anybody.

For example, when your product is new, you may have 10 users, taking 10 courses in various permutations. You write your naive O(N^2) search and everything looks great, and you put your comment in. Everything is great for months, then you hit it big, and now you have 100 courses and 10,000 users and now you're dead. Thanks for your comment, it was really helpful!

Devs tend to be allergic to O(N^2) because it is beaten into us in school and during interviews. On the one hand, that's good, it gets people thinking about runtime performance. On the other hand, if you just have a shallow view of it it's a crutch. Those same people may for example, wrap that algorithm in an a lambda that has an internal time-complexity of O(N^2) anyway (but at least you don't see the double for-loop) or use a chain of lambda calls, getting their O(N) but nevertheless losing performance because of constant costs around execution and allocation.

>and it might make life easier for someone in the future, so i'll do it.

That's where I disagree. It really doesn't.
I've always had the notion that a festival that you arrived at and departed completely naked, carrying nothing just as you do in the world would be awesome. Burning man became more about what you could shlep into the desert to show off than anything.

And as a poor kid growing up, nothing pissed me off in quite the unique and wonderful way as "show and tell" at school.

Show me the government that only governs people without addictions. What you're saying is absurd. Proclivity to addiction is affected by DNA. So you either have to imprison them so they can't have what they want, or deal with the fact that you will have some drug addicts.

"Do note that tax levels are rather high once you reach higher levels of income (50%-55% marginal tax rate)"

Also note that this is a potentially good time of year for someone to start working in Sweden. Since the tax rate is progressive and calculated on a yearly basis if you start working mid year you will this year pay the same rate as someone earning half your salary. At least in theory.
I agree that "lock" is a really poorly chosen word here. The explanation and diagram with a canal lock on that page is... unusual. It's a cutaway diagram of a physical canal lock, re-purposed as an mathematical graph (with x as the "viewport width" independent axis, and y as the "line height" dependent axis). But then it keeps the center portion moving up and down as if it is still a canal lock, so it can't really be a mathematical function at all.

The word "clamped" should have been used instead of "lock". They just want the text size to scale linearly with page width, but they want to "clamp" the text size so that it always stays within some reasonable (min, max) range. They could have also called it "piecewise linear".

It could also work in the other direction preventing people from acting out. If you look at one path you can probably find people that became more violent from playing grand theft auto. But, looking at the other path more (or less) people may become less violent from playing GTA.

As such it's the net effect that's important.
> Forth has no (well, very little) runtime error checking.

I don't think the standard prevents you from implementing that. If you want it, do it.

> The language is [WEAKLY] typed. It just doesn't have any type checking

True. However, a linter that does some type checking seems possible, provided some annotation syntax for the hard cases where it's not possible to infer types.
The thing is, despite its long existence one doesn't see many "Lint for Forth" around, so we can guess people managed to solve this problem in a different way.

> So you're now mentally juggling three different stacks: the data stack, the return stack, and the compiler stack, and if you make a mistake anywhere you're going to have a bad day.

The "compiler stack" is never an issue unless you overuse the "metaprogramming" capabilities of Forth like you'd abuse macros in Lisp.
I understand you might have had that impression if you spent more time implementing the interpreter than implementing programs.

> There's a lot of trivia to remember, which you need to remember. EXIT is allowed inside a BEGIN..AGAIN loop. But it's not allowed inside a DO..LOOP loop

Well of course you're supposed to know that the loop index is stored on the return stack. For a Forth programmer, it's as trivial and obvious as taking care of freeing malloc'ed memory is for a C programmer.

> There's no scope for, e.g., running out of heap and allocating another block from the operating system. Oh, and try not to run out of memory, because it will etc.

That's because it's typically not needed for various reasons. However if you really need it you can:
- make all of your addresses relative so that your system can reallocate the dictionary space; in other words, make your VM run Place Independent Code (PIC).
- create a library that allows you to allocate memory from the OS or the heap.

> Stack juggling gets old very, very quickly. (Although some Forths, not mine, support local variables.)

It's like saying FP is a hoax because you use mutability all the time. The problem is not in the language, it's how you use the language.

> While back I wrote a Forth interpreter. I recommend this to anybody interested in programming languages; you don't have to finish it

You should really finish and actually use it because you don't understand Forth yet.

Oh, and don't be afraid to discard standard compliance. It's a bad trade for you: you get all the constrains and will probably never benefit from the advantages.
Impressive. Congratulations on your achievement!
I'd that's what they mean, they should say that. "Hipster" just means "someone I don't like" and so has no value in a public forum conversation.
“Large” means #rust on moznet, which normally has around a thousand people in it, and has scores of regulars actively chatting.
It's only the wealthy that have women or drugs or food at Burning Man? Whatever. Pretty sure everyone has drugs, for starters, and "women", leaving aside you considering them a commodity, don't exactly seem scarce either.
A passhint is not a password
Wondering if a passhint (a formula for a password) be used in place of a password. The passhint allows anyone to type a random password for access depending on the passhint. A passhint is not a password, so if anyone knows a passhint doesnot necessarily can generate a password for access.
Ehhmmmm. stares at feet

I wish I could tell you anything better than "in my defense, I seem to forget only one vital password per year..."

(But seriously, I never risked data: the WD didn't have FDE, it was just a matter of salvaging the hardware; the OpenBSD was still in the middle of a migration and I had the source still accessible, so it was a matter of saving time. And it's fun.)
With our current understanding of physics, chemical rockets have one giant engineering advantage: the same mass that is consumed for energy production is also the reaction mass. So anything better for imparting large delta-Vs has to be non-newtonian and our current understanding of physics does not allow existence of any such thing.
But it doesn't have to be this way. I was in Copenhagen a few weeks ago. I couldn't get over the number of bikes parked overnight that were locked only to themselves. Many bikes simply had their U-lock run through their front tire as a deterrent to anyone who might ride off on it. The bikes weren't actually locked to anything at all. Amazingly, these bikes were still there in the morning. In Portland, none of those bikes would have lasted an hour "locked" like that.

Ask yourself "why is that?"

I do not support the idea of giving police all kinds of exemptions from the law.

The police should have no more power than a normal person, they are simply hired and trained to do what normal people do not have the desire to do.

This goes back to the foundation of American style governance, For the people by the people. The police are people, as such they are not the masters of anyone, nor are the people subordinate to them.

It depends on where you use the car. If you have free parking everywhere, that is effectively a government subsidy of urban sprawl and traffic. More crowded places charge for parking. In San Francisco, parking downtown is like $20 per day. And that’s if you leave it in an attended lot. Feeding the meter is so annoying.

Also, there is time spent in traffic. And fossil fuels are just stupid bad to use, so your $4 per gallon assumption is another hidden subsidy. But these don’t affect your personal finances, so they’re fine to leave out.
