I would argue the larger point still stands if the light skinned races aren't depicted as falling for similar deception, because a tendency to fall for deception is equally unedifying.

I prefer forecast.io. First, when I visit darksky.net, I get a location in Kansas. Forecast.io gives me New York, via GeoIP (?), without requiring location services. I'll assume that's just a bug, though.

The main problem is that I really don't care about the maps. It's 78 in Jacksonville, apparently, but I live in New York. I will very, very, very rarely care about the weather in Jacksonville.

Forecast.io quickly tells me, without scrolling, what the weather will be for the next hour, the next day, and the next seven days. That matters. It does it with a quick, easy to parse hierarchy - all in a column, same sizes for elements, left-aligned. It does have the globe map, but I mostly consider that a visual accent. It's a rain map though, which is at least more useful than a temperature map (rain tends to move in a certain direction).

While darksky.net has this information, it's not as easy to follow. It's center-aligned, which is harder to read, and the different fonts don't have a clear role. It goes now -> day -> hour -> (ad for an app I've already downloaded) -> (giant map) -> week, instead of now -> hour -> day -> week, so the scope jumps around instead of increasing with each step.

>Can sleep gives one supranormal cognition?

Yes if you define "normal" as not getting enough sleep, which is the relevant reference point in this context.

I think part of what is happening is that people with less money do things themselves (cooking, cleaning) that wealthy people pay someone else to do. So wealthy people can spend correspondingly more of their time on the kinds of activities that count as economic activity in our current system- their jobs. The amount of time they have left for exploring/learning/resting is most likely still much more than what poor people have, though.

The main issue here is that people aren't worried about either of those problems :) otherwise Facebook, Google and other advertising companies would only have a handful of users.

> These are two very distinct issues and not everyone is concerned about both equally.

Divide and conquer... not. The issue is the same, we should fight together for more privacy, not disregard other people's reasons for requesting more privacy.

In any case, as you were replying to my previous comment, my point was that if the company has access to your data, Law Enforcement has got it too. Also if Law Enforcement has access to your data it means it wasn't also available for the company. Hence why one implies the other. You might be worried about one, but you've got two :)

If you have friends and/or family, but no money, you rely heavily on hand-me-downs. An example of ours -- although cloth diapers are cheaper in the long run than disposable diapers, the start-up costs are steep. But we've had to buy less than 1/5 of the cloth diapers we've used, because they pass through a loose network of friends.

If you don't have friends or family, the only money saving option really available in the US (that I know of) is used/thrift shops and consignment sales.

Right. Maybe the "insanity" will continue as long as we act like people wearing special hats are allowed to use force in a way that isn't okay for the unwashed and unhatted masses.
Just to address these individually:

1. Plenty of heroic art has ambiguous villains, but this is certainly a modern preference. I'm sure our view of Hector in the Iliad being sympathetic is quite different than the ancient Greek's take on him.

2. The racism issue is quite real, in my opinion. This problem is somewhat exacerbated by the movies, where all the orcs have dreadlocks. But to say the dark races are "mislead" just substitutes stupidity for malice. All the heroes, without fail, are white. The elves, clearly the highest race in Tolkien's world, are white, blonde, tall and beautiful.

3. 3 women, all of whom have bit parts, at best, isn't really that great. Though they are all shown to have great redeeming qualities, two of their characters mostly revolve around their relationships with men (both of whom are in love with Aragorn, a great virtue, it seems). Galadriel is the only one who seems to have an identity and power that does not rely on her relationship to a man. Though even she appears to be secondary to Celeborn when she again appears.

This is not to dismiss LotR as not good or important literature. All these criticisms could be made of the vast majority of western literature up to the late 20th Century. The Iliad has no female or low class characters at all (the Odyssey's introduction of Penelope, Eumaeus and Dido is really a watershed in western literature, and their characters are far weaker than anything in LotR), but is still studied. Because of this, I don't understand Tolkien apologism.

The trouble with "magical thinking" as it is used here is that it is simply a more pejorative way of saying "unjustified belief".

Once you substitute the term "magical thinking" for "unjustified belief" the article becomes a lot more banal because really there are a lot of ways to be wrong and there is no particularly meaningful way to group all these ways together. Perhaps the central bankers do have unjustified beliefs about the efficacy of monetary policy. But there isn't a meaningful intellectual link - despite the considerable intellectual drippings of this article - between FOMC meetings and prehistorical tribal religion.

I don't want Facebook Messenger, and the Facebook app cannot be uninstalled on my device since it came preinstalled with the Android OS on it (HTC One - it can however be disabled).

Now, if someone uses Facebook Messenger to send me a message, my Facebook app will notify me about unread messages - I've disabled most notifications, but the icon still gets a number increase indicating messages that can be read. These messages cannot be read from within the app without installing Messenger. Using the browser no longer work for reading these messages, since they are pushing the Messenger app.

The only sad part here are the few "friends" that actually write their messages to /dev/null trying to reach me...

Does it mean Google misses good engineers because of their less-than-ideal interview process

Google intentionally prefers false negatives to false positives.
I've seen this sentiment in a couple of places now -- and the news media and non-technical folks seem to refer to "encryption" very loosely to mean "protected in the way I want it to be protected at the times I want it to be protected".

Can we please use technical terms with precision?

You can have data encrypted at rest and in transit that is still accessible to the provider and the fact that the provider can decrypt it for processing doesn't make it any less "encrypted". There is not a total ordering of encryption or security schemes.

If you would like to say that the data isn't end-to-end encrypted such that it is opaque to the service provider -- say that. Don't say it isn't meaningfully encrypted.
I wonder if the WhatsApp "problem" Brazil has been having somehow influenced the change of stance of encryption?

> I may be of the minority here but I am definitely not the minority in the real world.

I disagree. I think huge numbers of people take nootropics frequently if not daily (caffeine and prescribed mood-altering drugs) and I'd bet that you'd consider these completely normal and non-crazy. But that belief is based in normativity, not logic. All of these substances have negative side effects, and the industry around prescription drugs is very much at odds with the actual research around prescription drugs. In fact, the only substances on the list which I think probably don't have negative side effects are ones that most people probably don't take (Fish Oil and Vitamin D3).

> If you care about health why not exercise and eat healthy and never take any type of drug for any reason unless you are sick.

What's a drug? What's sick?

Arguably, refined sugar is a drug, or the dopamine that you get from surfing news sources like HN. And things like caffeine, which are entirely normative, aren't even arguable: they're just obviously drugs.

Arguably, being inflicted with a need to work 40 hours a week on tasks that don't fulfill our emotional or social needs is a horrible chronic illness. It certainly has affected my life more negatively than my chronic allergies (which I live with, untreated).

Choosing to take a nootropic should be about the tradeoffs, and health definitely is not the only factor.
It looks like you were being down voted, but what you're saying isn't false. Here's a WaPo article backing you up: http://www.washingtonpost.com/sf/investigative/2014/09/06/st...

> Hundreds of state and local departments and drug task forces appear to rely on seized cash, despite a federal ban on the money to pay salaries or otherwise support budgets. The Post found that 298 departments and 210 task forces have seized the equivalent of 20 percent or more of their annual budgets since 2008.

And also:

> A thriving subculture of road officers on the network now competes to see who can seize the most cash and contraband, describing their exploits in the network’s chat rooms and sharing “trophy shots” of money and drugs. Some police advocate highway interdiction as a way of raising revenue for cash-strapped municipalities.
>So taking over a pre-existing site centered around illegal activity and simply seeing who uses it is about as far away from entrapment as you can get.//

Surely though if the site was shut down then the likelihood of the crimes being committed, that were recorded in those 13 days of operation, approaches zero? Would be interesting to see how many of these criminals when caught belong to more than one group.

A cop being undercover inside a criminal operation seems to me like a different category to a whole criminal operation being run by a department of police.

It seems close to entrapment; perhaps like going to an alcoholic rehab centre and offering alcohol around. Sure they could get it somewhere else but cutting off their supply should have been helping them reform already.

Surely that's the rationale behind targeting suppliers of illicit goods. If the argument is "the users will just get it elsewhere" then you should target the users and remove the demand.

Indeed, however the phrase "100% tinfoil hat mode" does imply being unconcerned about B, and that anyone who is is a lunatic.

This appears to be an overzealous extension of the right to be forgotten.

The right to be forgotten is a debate worth having as there are individuals that may have historical public records that may be false or no longer in the public interest to be so widely available.

E.g: Man falsely but not maliciously accused of rape or murder in press reports and later being exonerated in court without accompanying press report detailing the exoneration, and now finds it very difficult to get a job or start new relationships. Or a business man who filled for bankruptcy 30 years ago who finds search engines return news reports of his bankruptcy as the first and only return on himself and thus makes finding business partners or credit near impossible.

These seem like people who need protection from a age when its far far too easy to get access to the historical public record, but removing a factually true report that is just two years old seems a bit extreme; without knowing the full context.

What the right to be forgotten should be is some kind of mechanism of adding friction back to the process of getting certain kinds of information when it is in the public interest that this information shouldn't be so easy to get at. It should not be about removing public records altogether. How you do that without inadvertently harming the public interest or allowing abuse seems like a pretty hard or impossible problem.
I am a little ambivalent about that.

How about coffee, vitamin d, calcium and tyrosine?

All of them have proven benefits, nothing fringe:
http://www.informationisbeautiful.net/visualizations/snake-o...

That combined with exercise, sleep and eating well is pretty much my "stack."

Personally I would rather not risk the possibility of destroying my brain with something unproven. However, for things with proven benefits and little chance of side-effects, well, why not?

So, while I would prefer to avoid self-experimentation personally, I am glad others are working to establish what works, what is safe, etc.

Title is not going to be right very often.
When AI are everywhere, the ability to tinker with them, repurpose and reshape them to your specific needs and desires, will then be the point of difference. So coding will always be important.

If AI-in-everything becomes as ubiquitous as the written word, which it will, our lives will be vastly transformed. The ability to code will become like the ability to write is now: the absolute bottom rung of the ladder to enter society as a participant.

If AI and energy become essentially zero cost then the differentiator will be how clearly you can tell them what you want them to build, and how useful are the things you choose to build. Oh, wait, so no different to coding today. So coding will always be important, and increasing saturation of advanced technology will only make it more so.

If you are assuming, as counter to these points, AI where you can essentially say: make me a FB clone that will make me 1 trillion dollars per year, finish it in 2 hours. As in, you have a Magic Lamp, then, either everyone will have a Magic Lamp, and the differentiator will be your mind, or only those who can afford it will have a Magic Lamp, so the differentiator will be money, equivalently again, your mind. So coding, in the purest sense of giving instructions, will be important.

To put all this another way, when the number of things to which people can give instructions to produce results increases in number then will also increase the number of people who are capable of giving instructions to such things.
