I didn't mean that as a criticism. These are all good choices for the role that PHP was intended to play, being the language that everyone writes 10 lines of for their personal website.

Yeah, I need to find a better way to handle the (very common!) case where a podcast doesn't yet have enough highly-ranked similar shows.

Similiarity is based on a mix of some basic nlp (tf-idf similarity between show and episode notes) and shows that users have starred together or added to a multi-search. I initially tried lowering the baseline score for what constitutes a 'similar' show, but for shows where I don't have any non-nlp features it often produced garbage.
Meyers is undoubtedly the master. Koenig certainly gives his own slant on things though and is enjoyable to read.

I’m fairly new to FreeBSD; I've been using it for various small projects off and on since 9.x. I also previously worked for MIT for over a dozen years and worked fairly closely with network security colleagues.

To me, the attitude of we're not going to change the defaults the neckbeards cut their teeth on 20 years ago regardless of the insane threat environment we exist in today and if you get hacked, owned or worse, it's your own damn fault for not knowing all of the tweaks that could have saved your ass that we decided not to make defaults even if they are defaults upstream is the height of Unix elitism IMHO.

In the world we live in, having defaults stay the same for the sake of not inconveniencing people who already know better is incredibly shortsighted. And it makes it way more difficult for newbies who don't have time to cobble together best practices from all the relevant IRC chat rooms, email lists and blog posts to learn FreeBSD’s best practices.

It doesn't make a lot of sense to have a default install of FreeBSD that allows users new to the platform and who are looking around and kicking the tires that also allows users to shoot themselves in the foot unnecessarily.

Thanks to the author’a article, I now disable the default settings for OpenSSH, use OpenNTPD, encrypt swap and build everything I can against libressl-devel.

The fact that so many of what are mostly common sense proposed defaults are perceived as breaking some kind of FreeBSD oath of obfuscation doesn't help grow the FreeBSD community in the long run. That's something to also consider.
"The Pix version offers a clearer image"

For me the Live Photo version is more sharper than the Pix one and it has better exposure too.
My favorite explanation has been: science answers What/How, religion answers Why. It's when we start asking one a question for the other that we get into trouble.

Which is what I don't like about [some] creationism. It tries to use a Why tool to answer a How question.

And as long as you take Biblical stories to be metaphors and/or best-effort explanations from before we had the data that we have now, they're perfectly fine stories that make plenty of sense as an explanation.

Adam&Eve for instance. If all you know is that it takes a man and a woman to produce a baby, it stands to reason that at some point there had to have been the first pair.
Preview shouldn't be falling over ever, even if PNG is a fairly inefficient format for partial loading. File a bug at https://bugreporter.apple.com or with Feedback Assistant.
For a personal system, that's fine. For the situation where you are a sysadmin and are jumping onto one of possibly hundreds of systems, I prefer not to rely on a behavior that is specifically made more safe (implying it is less safe as it exists by default) by active configuration. In that situation, it's much easier to just not use the less safe version in favor of the safer version if not too burdensome, and both exist.
Thanks! I learned something today.
These strategies are intended for individual use but can also be combined for maximum effectiveness.

New programming language delivers 4x speedup on problems in the age of big data
A PUT means that the server accepts the payload as is. Yes, it can be restricted as is. But the request must be free of side effects. The server should not even validate the payload. And that also means that your request should not trigger stuff that cannot be triggered again. If your model _only_ relies on that flag, than the PUT is fine. But when I close a bank account, usually I trigger stuff on the server side (including validation). So a POST should be required.
No thanks. I like knowing that everyone gets the same articles. It's like a newspaper where we are the readers, writers and editors. I'm exposed to good ideas because the rest of the community thinks they are worth hearing about. An algorithm might prevent me from seeing those ideas.
In the netherlands providers has linked the wifi enable settings in their modem/router/accesspoints to their online account and if you disable the wifi you won't get access to the free networks they deployed everywhere.

This is mainly because those networks are deployed by adding an second SSID to the router with WPA enterprise auth. The solution many people choose is putting the router in the basement with a lot of aluminium foil around it.
Such problems are always theoretical, until they suddenly become real, and you're happy that someone years ago has thought of that possibility, and left behind a way to solve them...

Ask HN: Run discovery of hypermedia APIs
In terms of the discovery of hypermedia links in RESTful HATEOS APIs, can anybody provide any examples or information on how to implement such a dynamic traversal of documents in order for the client to 'discover' where to go next.

Of-course it is easy for the developer to hardcode which parts of the JSON response is important in order to decipher where it should go next, but in order to keep that loose coupling, whats the best way to approach this?

It seems examples and documentation on this subject is a little sparse.
"They are 100% correct about the spatial Finder"

I never used OS9, so I don't know about this ...

Was the "spatial finder" still a hierarchical viewing of the underlying filesystem, just presented in a better fashion ?

Or was it non-hierarchical ?

Did OS9 even have a filesystem as I, a UNIX user, think of ? Or was that completely hidden with abstraction ?

It's a pretty cool idea but nothing groundbreaking. There is plenty of AI-driven mathematics already, e.g. the Mizar theorem prover. Pollock used to advocate the idea of continuously trying to prove theorems that might be useful later. It's an underrated idea, in my opinion, and his system of defeasible reasoning based on graph theory is still one of the best.

What's new in this paper is the probabilistic component, trying to guess the outcome of complicated proofs. That's a neat idea, but nothing revolutionary. It may give rise to nice shortcuts for better efficiency.

The real problem is making the machine get a good hunch what to prove, so it doesn't find useful theorems just randomly. I'm not working in this field, so correct me if I'm wrong, but that seems to be rather hard. In any case, as far as I know most automated theorem provers are only semi-automatic, you have to give them an idea about which direction to go and which proof strategy to use.
Would need to check, but my bet is caching of partially rendered HTML as bitmaps, as well as a full JavaScript JIT environment.

"Of all the software that I used on a Mac, I have to say that I miss the Finder the most. I've tried every file manager available on Linux (you name it, I've probably tried it) and I can't find anything that's even close to Finder. Nautilus and Nemo are the closest but they are both buggy and are missing a ton of features that I loved in Finder. Everything else just doesn't have the polish or is just missing features that make using Finder such a joy."

Whatever happened to Konqueror ?

I remember many (12 ? 10 ?) years ago installing Konqueror as a standalone, non-browser application in a non-KDE Window system and I liked it for the limited time that I used it ...

I finally gave up on consumer routers, and bought one of these instead - the learning curve is steep, but it's overloaded with features and runs brilliantly.
yes, but it's not equivalent, as Alt-. only repeats the last argument.

For example, say you want to run "chown root:root foo". Alt-. gets you "foo", not the entire command, and "sudo foo" isn't useful,and in some cases could do something else entirely. For example, with the command "service foo restart", you would end up with "sudo restart" (which while it doesn't execute right away, is exactly what I'm guarding against).

If you watch the video in GP, he talks about situations where he can't or doesn't want to fix anything. For example there's nothing to fix when customers send out spam, it's the customer who has to change their behavior. And people don't like being told that they are at fault. So the point is about how to ease them into understanding that without becoming angry at the company.

Pitch idea to current company or go elsewhere
In a bit of dilemma - looking to crowdsource some wisdom:

I'm currently working at a medium sized company that itself is looking to pivot. I think i've come up with a pretty strong idea that could either fit for this company, a few others in this space, or even start my own company.

What is the best play here?

So far I got:

1) I pitch this to my current employer. They have the resources to build it, are already in a similar space, and are exploring ways to pivot the business. However best case seems to be they say, "Great, build it" and I get to do something else than my usual day to day. Though most likely I'd just get an additional job. Might get a promotion/bonus but not a substantial increase in equity/ownership.

2) I pitch this to another company in the space who might be interested.

3) I build this out myself. I have the technical skills to at least put together a decent MVP in 1-2 months.

Some other analysis:

1) Legally, if my current employer wanted to fight me for ownership they'd have a decent case. My contract says they own what I invent and the idea is sufficiently close to the current lines of business that I don't think CA moonlighting law(2870) would help me too much. That said, the idea is a combination of concepts and I'm not sure all parts of it could be considered related. I imagine it'd depend on the caselaw and the scope of 'relates'.

2) I could build out a MVP on the side and then present it the current company as an independent project - asking, innocently, if they might be interested in acquiring it. Not crazy about this plan as it's actually one i've sort of done before with limited success. Still, seems like it might work. If they say no I could take it elsewhere and I could see them wanting it if only to prevent that and could offer at minimum whatever the costs/headaches of legal action might be.

Thoughts? Asking on a throw away for obvious reasons.
"I like preview feature in Finder. It's awesome and I wish every OS had that."

Agreed - the space-bar convention for quick preview and browsing through files is really, really useful. In fact, it's so nice that I can't believe it's still there in a not-yet-wrecked form.

Give it some time.

No. As far as I'm aware, there exist no regulations regarding SETI interference (mainly because this is a private endeavour and regulations would need strong international political support).

From the FAQ (http://m.esa.int/Our_Activities/Space_Science/Rosetta/Rosett...):

As soon as Rosetta hits the surface, its main systems will be turned off, including the attitude and control systems, as well as the main transmitter, the latter in order to meet regulations aimed at avoiding interference on deep space network communications channels.

Sorry, I have no further info on what these regulations are.
This picture is simply wrong.

First: Why is the temperature compared to the 1961-1990 average and not to the range of the timeline (20000 BCE - 2016)?

Second: The measurements/estimates were not made in the intervals marked with dots, they were not equally spaced and not exact as the chart suggests.

Third: It also doesn't take variance into account in the past estimates, yet it does so in the recent measurements (1900-).

Fourth: There is no explanation for the drop of average temperature between years 1000 and 1500, although the change was the same as between 1500 and 2000 and it clearly points out that this is (supposedly) due to human actions.

Fifth: It's funny how at 17500 BCE there's a note stating "Temperatures have been creeping upward" (no explanation why), 10500 BCE "warming resumes" (no explanation why), 7500 BCE "This warm stable period is called 'the holocene stable optimum'" (no explanation why) ... But when it comes to modern times we have explanation for everything (= we, the almighty narcissistic creatures).

And I could go on and on.

You could also say that the ARM implementation is not optimal since it uses the same cache size for vastly different designs (different pipeline length and memory access characteristics).

A missing piece of information IMHO:
Ubuntu now maps a nice readline features to PgUp and PgDn: history-search-backward and history-search-forward.

Type the beginning of a command line, and with PgUp-PgDn, you will traverse your history for the command lines beginning with what you have typed.

That's a no-brainer in my Bash life.

Note: to enable that feature in your Bash, here is a tutorial: http://dqxtech.net/blog/2011-03-06/linux-bash-history-pgup-p...

The NOMA (non-overlapping magisteria argument/How vs. Why) position is useful to try to coexist peacefully while establishing a more solid rapport, but is not itself universally accepted[0]. For example, philosophy is also capable of answering "Why" questions with or without the help of religion, and neuroscience, anthropology, and evolutionary psychology can explain a lot of the "How" that actually drives what we perceive as "Why".

If you have to rely on a human being to decide to pay out, then the smart contract part of the deal is pointless.
It's unfortunate that Ambrosia, who released Mac games like Cythera, Escape Velocity, Asteroid, Harry the Handsome Executive, etc. apparently can never port them because they didn't negotiate remake or source code rights from the original developers. And they're still around, just enough to keep selling the old MacOS games at the original prices…
Not sure how it works on Linux, but on Windows, if the acquired DHCP IP has a lease time of 60 minutes, then Windows will try to renew that IP anytime after 1/2 the lease time (i.e. 30 minutes). This is why in Corporate environments good practice is to keep lease time 1 hour or more.
I know of "M-." which will insert the last word of the previous command, and typing "M-." again will replace it with the last word of the command before that.

Is there something that goes through the words, instead? So I hit a key, it inserts the last word of the previous command, then I hit the key again and it replaces it with the penultimate word of the previous command?

I think using bang, I can do "!-3:1" to get the second word of the command three lines up?

I suppose it's not about "jamming" but rather "accidental overlap" with future trajectories, i.e. another mission may pass through the axis between DSN-station and comet and the signals will mix.

Be aware that the beam is conical, so even if the pointing is exact within a few fractions of a degree, the further away you are from the DSN-station, the wider is the coverage area of the beam (and the lesser the signal strength, of course).

> AI-driven mathematics already, e.g. the Mizar theorem prover

Can you tell us more about how Mizar is AI-driven? I have never worked with it, but my understanding was that it was a fairly normal proof assistant. That is, proofs are written by humans, and some smallish boring intermediate steps are done using a regular first-order prover. Like with Coq or Isabelle.

Does Mizar do something else as well? Does it use AI to make conjectures?

This is a potential and promising competitor to DesktopServer (https://serverpress.com/get-desktopserver/) which I've been a long-time user of. It just added support for WP-CLI and relies on XAMPP. Theme Juice looks more promising as it does not touch my root system but comes as a virtual machine. Another advantage of Theme Juice seems to be built-in deployment. DS does not help with that. I have been using WordMove for that task and wonder whether Capistrano is really the better alternative.

But I also have some critical things to say about Theme Juice. First, the name. Theme Juice sounds like a premium WP theme vendor. I sense why want to use "Juice" but "Theme" should definitely not be there. Another big issue is that you do not support PHP7. I am pretty sure that most professional WordPress developers now only start with PHP7 as the advantages are huge and the downsides negleticable. And for projects big enough to need a local dev, constraints on servers should not be an issue as you are most probably either running an own server (where you can choose your own PHP settings) or are using a solid WP host like WPEngine, Pagely or Pantheon which all support PHP7.
