If you're using chrome, the omnibar seems to send out whatever you type to (google's?) server for search suggestion, so you shouldn't do that if you're copying sensitive data. You can use ⌘+shift+v to paste the text without formatting (and without sending your data to some random servers).
Of course, Sam and Frodo fail in the end... at the last moment, Frodo succumbs to the ring, claims it for his own, and turns away from the quest.

The only thing which actually saves them and destroys the ring is blind chance. Or, maybe, providence? "Bilbo was meant to find the ring, and not by its maker," says Gandalf. Once you start looking, that theme permeates the entire book.

But then, so does free will: providence, if it exists in Tolkien's universe, cannot act except through people. Frodo's choice to let Gollum live allows Gollum to unwittingly destroy the ring later. And that theme permeates the book too.

It's painfully dated in a lot of ways, but still fascinating, and a lot more complex than the simple adventure story it first appears to be.

I think it should be considered that the vast majority of Windows systems are pre-installed and pre-configured out of the box. If this were the case with Linux, there might be an argument. Most Windows users couldn't easily install, configure and use, e.g. Server Enterprise Edition. Likewise, I doubt Gentoo would be a common candidate for ease of use. The various *buntus have really come a long way in regard to user friendliness, maybe far enough.

> I see more escapism through drugs.

Escapism is a great way to expand your mind. If you didn't believe you could escape this why would you conceive of anything else?

Millenials may be the most pathological generation in history; That's only because they were raised by the second most. They know it. They can see the history of the populist political failure; The phony institutionalization of freedom. The centralist optimization of economies as a domain of warfare. They're ants and they know it. They don't know how to proceed. They've met so many wonderful grasshoppers. Yet they feel the grasshoppers in total are evil. There is more dissonance in reality than ever before. Even if that's only because we're so aware as a society now. It has consequences on the developmental outcomes of human's that may not show up until decades after they've taken effect.
I think the biggest "aha-moment" (I believe the kids say "mind blowing" these days) in my entire education was the final few slides of the final class of "Introduction to Algorithms and Data Structures". Basically, if you're able to loosen the constraints of the problem, to solve for the specific case, not the general, by making assumptions about your input data set (perhaps it's almost sorted already) or accepting an only almost-correct solution (say, for travelling salesman, you just want a solution reasonably close to the best, it matters less if it is the best) you can make your algorithms orders of magnitude faster/simpler/better.
There has been a lot of talk in HN comments recently about Homebrew installing to `/usr/local`. With macOS Sierra, the user can no longer write to this folder without specifically owning it. Is there a security risk here and if so, whats the best workaround?

If I were you I wold check my motivation before jumping ship. There will always be people working less and earning more than you. Just think of the lottery winners. Following this path you may hit the line of 300k/yr but won't find contentment. Don't get caught by the hedonic treadmill!

On the other hand if you just want to earn 300k/yr regardless of the salary of others than you know what you have to do.

I'm actually dreading the day that I go to the store and find that my favorite soda syrups have been discontinued.

I prefer diet sodas over coffee for my daily caffeine intake. I started using a SodaStream a couple years ago, and I've come to really enjoy a few of the flavors that they offer, but some of them are already completely impossible to get anymore. This seems mostly due to them being acquired by Pepsi, and this has caused them to redo their entire lineup due to either lackluster sales or corporate politics.

I would love it if Open Cola were not only available from manufacturers, but also covered more flavors, because it seems like making soda at home is really catching on (one only needs to look at the sales of the carbonator cap on Amazon to see this) but the availability of syrups is presenting some serious supplier risk.

Edit: SodaStream wasn't acquired by Pepsi, they merely had a distribution deal. My mistake.
It's not that users would want to install Linux (historically, they don't know or care about the OS), it's that a manufacturer might want to either to reduce costs or differentiate their products. In today's browser-focused world that's not too much of a stretch to envision happening at least on some low-end/consumer devices... for a start. Want to see what that looks like for Microsoft? See Microsoft's mobile market share...
Thanks. icantdrive55 is equally romantic ;)

While we're plugging our favourite Bootstrap alternatives, I just want to give a shoutout to Bourbon: http://bourbon.io/

I find it a lot more flexible than Bootstrap, but equally useful for fundamentals and cross-browser support. It is also less opinionated about the HTML markup and styling, at the cost of requiring more setup (rather than just, say applying classes) than Bootstrap. But with the additional modules of Neat, Bitters, and Refills, you can get the same sort of UI suite going quite easily.
Huh. I visited your site and reading the tag line "a fast, secure and scalable websocket & tcp server", I assumed it was just a socket server and had no idea it was actually a data-store.

I wasn't able to sleep in the past. Now I can because of two simple tricks (may not work for everyone):

1) I lie on the side and cover both ears, one with the cushion and one with the blanket.

Then I fall asleep.

I agree that there is nostalgia involved, but it is only part of the picture.

From a software developer's point of view the Amiga is worth resurrecting because the operating system design represents a promise that you can get great power and flexibility out of modest means, by keeping complexity at bay.

It wasn't always so rosy, but you could pack quite a punch by developing products for the Amiga. The system gave you a lot of leverage, which architect Carl Sassenrath rightly referred to as "empowering the user". The development environment (a 'C' compiler, a debugger and a decent text editor would see you through) and the operating system documentation were solid enough. You could comfortably hold the entire design of the system and its APIs in your head. That kind of knowledge is rare these days, given how complex our platforms of choice have become.

I have been an Amiga software developer for more than three decades now, through the good times and the less good times (it used to be a hobby, became a business, now it's a hobby again). It does give you perspective, and not everything that came around in these last three decades measured up so well: how much of the power of the hardware platform ends up in the hands of the user?

The (for lack of a better word) "thin" Amiga operating system layer allowed you to squeeze a maximum of performance out of the hardware. I recall that during the late 1990'ies Amiga networking software, tested against a HP-UX based logic analyzer's networking performance in the lab, came out on top.
I think the latest version is 5 or 6. The one you pointed to seems to be pretty old:

How Central Banks Print Money
I guess they just wanted to lock out Windows 7/8. They don't gain anything by denying Linux to a few people. But preventing that the buyer can downgrade to Windows 7 fits exactly to their strategy and makes sense for Microsoft.

Also, an agreement to lock out Linux might not be legal from an antitrust perspective, whereas an agreement to restrict usage to the current version of the OS is much less critical.
Never mind that UEFI has already made Linux a second class citizen, and comes with a Microsoft tax. It reminds me of how Islam handles d'em other religions.
Because increasing its importance could be seen as tampering with the results for their own benefit, i.e. pushing a web-technology that they control. Adding a flag to it is sort of the same, but I'm guessing they are testing the waters with this and if they don't get legal repercussion, they'll actually change the search rankings.
Imagine the wealth a company could amass if it succeeded in terraforming mars. Rare metals, sale of land etc.

This is one of those markets where you have rather high barriers to entry.
Money, lots of money. Microsoft gives away special deals for OEM versions of Windows that cost manufacturers of devices peanuts in comparison to the ordinary pricing. I've heard figures like $20 per Windows license.

So people have suggested in the past that Microsoft might ask for favours in return, basically telling OEMs that if they do not comply they might loose cheap OEM versions or even all access to OEM version of Windows, which would make their products unfit for competition.

Other people have suggested that this would be illegal, that Microsoft would never do something as anti-competitive like that, and that Microsoft just gives away nicely priced OEM versions of Windows to manufacturers because they are really nice guys and want disseminate their products even if they don't earn much from them.
There's no need for every slippery slope argument to make an allusion to the genocides committed by the Nazis.

Otherwise, "my friend", one invites analogies to Godwin's law, and rejection out of hand for using a reductio ad Hitlerum.

People make slippery slope arguments all the time, but often (and quoting your [0]), "as a form of fear mongering, in which the probable consequences of a given action are exaggerated in an attempt to scare the audience. The fallacious sense of "slippery slope" is often used synonymously with continuum fallacy, in that it ignores the possibility of middle ground and assumes a discrete transition from category A to category B. In a non-fallacious sense, including use as a legal principle, a middle-ground possibility is acknowledged, and reasoning is provided for the likelihood of the predicted outcome."

What was missing, in the recasting of Niemöller's poem, was the 'reasoning ... provided for the likelihood of the predicted outcome'.
Paul Atreides was literally designed/breed to have the special powers though, which makes his case a bad example.

If not him it would have been whoever else was at the peak of the sisterhood's breeding plan.
Yeah I mostly understood that from the example.

I still don't see how the cars are going to entirely solve the problem of everyone needing to be in the same place at the same time, they still have to cope with each others presence, unless they can fly.

In my opinion a good public transport system does. I've spent time in Tokyo, the rail network is second to none, it's congested sure, but it works.

The problem is that people still need to get in and out of the cars for example, which means there is still wait time. Breakdowns will happen. All humans drivers will have to be banned etc.

It sounds to me like the auto-industry is still pushing a selfish agenda and the valley is buying it, because it's an opportunity to take more money.

For me, I'm happy because I'll still ride my bike and it will be a much safer place for me to exist because self-driving cars won't try and kill me, hopefully :)
Awesome, thanks for that. Would be good for it to be listed on the article. It only tells you that it no longer requires ownership after you have been asked to give it for the migration.

I read about it in a UK magazine called 'The Big Issue' probably about a decade ago. A quick Google turns up nothing unfortunately but IIRC the policy was practised in just a single region, not nationwide so perhaps they discontinued the practise (or I could have misrememebered the country the policy was implemented in!).
Never knew this principle had a name. Will have to try to remember it. Of course for us plebeians, it is oft heard "ignorance is no excuse".

Just a nitpick - Spectrum was pretty open (at least if we are talking about 48/128). My father bought us Spectrum specifically because it was more open than alternatives (Atari or Commodore), and he later bought the PC for the same reason (and I would never buy a Mac for the same reason).

Unlike its competitors, Spectrum had standard phone jack connectors for sound and magnetic tape recorder (so you could use any recorder). It also had a direct circuit board connection to the system bus on the back, and the schematics were available. My father built us the 8255 interface to have joystick and other peripherals connected.
Honestly Dell does Ubuntu pre-installed and therefore its XPS and Precision models never give this kind of bullshit uphill, even if you don't buy the Ubuntu version. It's now my go-to vendor, simply because I consider any vendor which does not do full testing on Linux, and sells any hardware that doesn't fully support it, as suspect and not worth bothering with. I'm sad to see that Lenovo is now in that camp.

I have a problem with all these website-blocking tools that I want them to behave differently than they do, perhaps you can suggest something?

The issue is that I want to block only the main, 'browsing' pages while allowing deep links to that same site. For example, I want to block reddit, when googling some question turns out an answer that's on a niche subreddit I've never seen, I need to be able to read it. However, the site blockers I've tried require me to unblock the whole site or turn them off, and thus become pointless.

You're bordering on the absurd here.

I don't even need to argue that certain public officials should not be permitted to have privacy while in office. She has a right to privacy. I am not arguing she doesn't.

I am arguing she made a series of poor choices that led to a situation where the only way she can live up to the standards we should expect from a public official (a verifiable paper trail for business pertaining to office) is by keeping a record of her private communications as well.

This is why you don't use your private email address for official business. If you want privacy while in office you don't use your private email server for official business. You aren't supposed to anyway. It's very simple and very reasonable.
If you read the original reddit thread, you would understand that this is not just a drivers issue. Lenovo intentionally programmed their BIOS so that it reverts any changes to RAID mode making it impossible to install Linux.
We're assuming Microsoft is behaving according to their extensively-documented (including original MS source documents in court cases) past malicious behaviour, not assuming malice in the absence of previous malice.

You are probably right but the PR backslash could make them think twice before doing the same thing again. So it's still worth complaining and, why not, buying from somebody else and be very vocal about it. For sure, after SuperFish and this I won't consider or recommend Lenovo anymore.

I'm really not sure I want companies to have the capability to re-format entire planets. That sounds like entirely too much power for any organisation to have, if only given its potential for weaponisation.

And land sale? The Outer Space Treaty [1] prohibits governments from claiming ownership of planets, so where would the authority to sell land on Mars come from? Do we really want companies to own planets? Weyland-Yutani (Mars) Inc. anyone?

Edit: We're not even close to getting a grip on the social and legal problems of having access to habitable, off-earth environments. I suspect that the potential for conflict is huge.
