Virtually every code of conduct will prohibit misogyny. But that's part of what Crockford seems to have been accused of. The problem isn't judging the underlying issues; the problem is judging whether they're really manifest in a particular speaker, or whether (instead) that speaker just happened to piss someone off with a grudge.

Patents are another issue. Doesn't specifically affect this project.

And clean-room implementations have no effect on patent violations or claims. None at all. It is entirely a copyright issue. And the issue here is that the same person who disassembled one codebase then wrote a new, equivalent codebase. Thus the new work is a derived work, or at least a lawyer can argue that easily, and thus distributing it for profit is a serious crime. Not even a civil offense, in any EU country. Criminal.

there are people obsessed with knives as such (collecting them, playing with them, carrying them all the time, imagining they save the world/themselves with knife). Knives have their power over them.

One more thing: having sound built into Chinese characters defeats one of its strongest reasons for being. Not only is Chinese monosyllabic and full of homonyms, historically there was no standard pronunciation so that you might not even understand the neighboring town. Having a character set solves both these problems.

IMO, those kinds of phono-characters were always lazy creations.

Pretty much everyone agrees that if companies like Google and Apple made local file sharing easy and cross-platform, all of us -- all of society -- would benefit.

However, these companies have financial incentives to do the opposite: they want users to do everything within tightly controlled platforms like Google Drive and iCloud, and they want to avoid commoditization at all costs. The last thing these companies want is for users to be able easily to transfer all their videos, music, photos, work files, contacts, calendar data, bookmarks, etc. from one platform to another.

The behavior of these companies is analogous to the behavor of AT&T at the beginning of the 20th century. AT&T had the largest telephone network with the most users, and smaller independent phone companies wanted to interconnect with it, but AT&T refused to do so, causing users to leave the smaller networks for AT&T's. Users of the smaller networks were unable to connect with users of the largest network. It wasn't until after the US federal government challenged AT&T for monopolistic behavior that this changed. In 1913, AT&T settled with the government in the "Kingsbury Committment," which required AT&T to allow non-competing independent telephone companies to interconnect with the AT&T network.[1]

I suspect the only way we can get easy and cross-platform data portability (local and otherwise) is via government intervention -- that is, if the government forces companies to do it for society's benefit (for example, by legally requiring compatibility with open data-sharing and app-interconnection standards), at the expense of user lock-in and corporate profits.

Not likely. Node will have to send out to an external source to pass messages between the cores of the cluster. Go and Elixir would do that fairly naturally without the external latency. Elixir and Phoenix would do the same over multiple machines with multiple cores without the need for a database or Redis to handle routing.

Both also make it pretty natural to async everything. If Node beat either in a distributed benchmark it would be a shock to all involved.
So, we shouldn't leave the EU, but super-states are bad...

I understand, thanks for elaborating on that matter.

In a way, a clean way to do it would to be a call for elections, and a proper mandate - either to stay in, or stay out. But that might not happen, considering the nature of the political game.

I agree about the reasons to worry, and to have a proper discussion. Things tend to get out of hand sometimes when it comes to media.
I think it is an appropriate headline. As far as drug crimes are concerned I think it is reasonable to accept the fact that the laws, reality and convictions are all in complete disarray.

Not all serious economists (who we can assume voted Leave) agree that Brexit is going to be economically harmful to the UK. Not all serious economic analyses suggest that Brexit will leave the UK permanently and materially poorer.

The argument can be taken up with the following who we can assume voted (if they are or would be UK citizens) to leave the EU, and some of whom might well have some understanding of the intricacies of trade deals.

A Y Combinator pitch:

[It] synchronizes files across your/your team's computers. It's much better than uploading or email, because it's automatic, integrated into Windows, and fits into the way you already work. There's also a web interface, and the files are securely backed up to Amazon S3. [It] is kind of like taking the best elements of subversion, trac and rsync and making them "just work" for the average individual or team. Hackers have access to these tools, but normal people don't.

The problem has been attacked many times, but only centralized subscription services and hardware vendor walled gardens have succeeded as businesses.

> "It was about racism in the sense of blaming immigrants for the UK's own political failures."

It really wasn't. The mass media set the topics for discussion around the Brexit debates, with speculation around immigration and the economy being the two central pillars, but the topics of debate should have been much broader than that.

Let's look at TTIP for one example. How much involvement have MEPs had in influencing the contents of the TTIP deals? What does this say about the level of democracy in the EU?
just because people don't recognize the problem doesn't mean they don't feel it, or wouldn't want a solution. Drew Houston's talked before about how one of the major hurdles for Dropbox early on was simply convincing people that file sharing was a problem. times have changed and now there's a new kind of "unrecognized problem" to be solved re: filesharing.
There is a universally accepted standard. And I believe the usual suspects have each had it implemented on their manufactured "smartphones". Each device can put its network interface into AP mode.

I think the marketing term is "WiFi Direct". But good luck getting Apple and Samsung devices to both discover and associate with each other.

If it feels like you're continually being corralled into sharing files with the person next to you via a third party's servers and an open, insecure, untrusted network ("the internet"), then maybe you are.

It is not necessary to use the internet and third parties to do something as simple as transfer files to the person sitting next to you (without using removable media), but it's easy for companies to convince users that this is the only way to do it.

And in most cases no convincing is even necessary because users fail to consider the alternatives.

Are prisons here to punish people or to solve problems in society?

Sometime people's sense of fairness is pitted against the idea of rehabilitation.

Fixing the root of problems mean dealing with the dredge of society, the people who deserved it the least.

Imaging rehabilitating a tinpot dictator who killed million so that he can feel remorse for what he did and find a productive living.
Great point. Having there be a business is important.

It's one of those things that seems simple (move 1 file 2 inches) but is really complex, with a lot of possible mechanisms, protocols, OSes, devices, and edge cases.

When the Dropbox people were looking for money, VCs would say, "But there are already plenty of ways to keep files in sync." They'd say, "Do you use any of them regularly?" The answer was always no. There was a giant gap that nobody had filled.

And they started with an easier problem, which is one person with multiple devices who wants one folder to be in two places. No features, just a folder that's always the same. (And they started with just desktop OSes.) Transferring files seamlessly between devices owned by different people on demand is much harder. Especially given how mobile OSes have deemphasized the notion of "file" altogether.

So yes, I don't expect a solution either.
There's a low underpass beneath a railway track near my house that claims at least one panel truck a month (usually beer trucks). It's an old rail line, and the underpass arch is faced with granite. The trucks don't win.
First,

The article seems to mostly complain about text logs VS structured logs. That is unrelated to syslog because it is simply a log transport mechanism.

Applications should send structured logs. (e.g. JSON messages). The message may be delivered by whatever means (e.g. syslog).

---

Second,

I am surprised that the article doesn't mention the issues with syslog not being defined properly and suffering from interoperability issues.

Truth is: "syslog" refers to multiples, incompatible protocols that evolved other time. See two independent specifications for example:

https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5424 and https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3164

Applications, libraries and middleware (graylog/ELK/rsyslog/syslog-ng/fluentd) have interoperability issues because of the different syslog protocols. Just because two things are speaking "syslog" doesn't mean they speak the same "syslog".

Switches/routers/appliances cause even more issue because the custom implementations tend to not format messages perfectly for any of the RFC. ^^
This is why I don't buy too much of the rhetoric.

The 5th biggest economy in the world is going to be put on the naughty step because its citizens decided enough is enough on mass immigration?

I think it'll end up being a lot of hot air while a load of backroom EU face-saving, but ultimately lucrative, trade deals are set up.
Ask HN: Can a blockchain do this?
I'm checking if a blockchain is applicable to our project.

In our requirement, a supplier and a buyer get into a work agreement. Later, supplier could claim that they have delivered according to the contract. But buyer could say that the delivery did not meet the quality norms as per the agreement.

I guess such situations are taken to court if big money is involved. Instead, can a technical solution such as blockchain resolve such issues? How can a blockchain verify if the quality of the delivered goods or work meets the terms in a smart contract? If not, what good can we expect from a smart contract and blockchain for this context?

Thanks!
I will be surprised if the gap narrows it probably means the state is putting random people in jail. Black people are far more prone to drug crimes than whites.

That's a very strong claim. The following article says the opposite: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2014/09/30/white...

Do you have any evidence to back up your claim, or are you speaking from (biased) assumptions?
That's a good point. When you have full control of design from the ground up it is reasonable to automate. I meant trains on existing complex tracks that were not designed from the ground up for automation. There are not trains navigating legacy systems, because that requires more uncertainty handling than our current automation is capable of. When the track and switching system and track vicinity are all controlled and designed for automation then it is a significantly less complex problem with respect to automation.
> To solve this, we need a global carbon tax, probably close to $100/ton. For reference, US emissions per capita is ~17 tons.

This seems... remarkably affordable. For the US, this is less than TARP. We really need to get our act together.
Clearly there is a bias, but I don't think it's wrong in this case.

I hate hard drugs because of the damage they cause, but it seems pretty clear to me (as an outside observer) that the United States' strategy of mass incarceration has been spectacularly unsuccessful in combatting the problem...

Fair points, but did you read the article? There's more to it than that.

> Donnie Gaddis picked the wrong county to sell 15 oxycodone pills to an undercover officer ... After agreeing to a plea deal, he was sentenced to serve 12 years in prison.

> From 2006 to 2014, annual prison admissions dropped 36 percent in Indianapolis; 37 percent in Brooklyn; 69 percent in Los Angeles County; and 93 percent in San Francisco.

> Prison admissions in counties with fewer than 100,000 people have risen even as crime has fallen

> Just a decade ago, people in rural, suburban and urban areas were all about equally likely to go to prison. But now people in small counties are about 50 percent more likely to go to prison than people in populous counties.

> “I am proud of the fact that we send more people to jail than other counties,” Aaron Negangard, the elected prosecutor in Dearborn County, said last year. “That’s how we keep it safe here.”

I think the implication of "Small towns are sending way more people to prison for petty drug crimes (like selling 15 pills to an undercover cop) than big cities" is supported by the article.
Syscall package for fsnotify. It's not that weird.
I would argue that the FDA is that risk adverse because society is that risk adverse.

You're just proving their point. None of the things you talk about are even remotely obvious or “natural” to people we're talking about. You want them to ”choose axioms”? Axiom-a-whaaa? 1+1=2 does not need Peano axioms because it's cognitively fundamentally different than 0.999...=1.0. It is immediately obvious because dealing with simple arithmetic on natural numbers is in everybody's experience constantly. In other words we do not need to convince them. Clever untrained people would be able to get 0.999... thing quickly if you gave them some explanation and let them think a bit, if they cared, but properties of real numbers are far from obvious or basic.

"misogyny" meaning...
being a misogynist?

a documented history of sexual harassment?

talking over another panelist?
forcible rape?
eating miso soup?

getting called out on Twitter?
having pictures of half-naked women in your slide deck, as a build-up to a joke?

I would hope that we all agree on "no misogyny" as an ideal, but that means a lot of different things to a lot of different people. What is the actionable threshold? Both personally, and for your community? (Rhetorical question.)

The reader might say "now you're infantilizing convention attendees" and I don't disagree. Over-specifying behavioral standards is indeed infantilizing. But I would say that, to the degree you refuse to specify acceptable behavior, you waive your right to criticize arbitrary action taken by the management.
The point is that awareness testing is not a fringe part of animal behavioral studies. This would be a potential area of research for mainstream animal behavior study (paired mirror tests).
