I happen to have a profile on LinkedIn. When I see someone with a "IoT Expert", I'm like "Dude, we live in Algeria. We didn't even make online payments and somehow there are more Internet of Things experts than Things of the Internet. Come on!".

It's a good selector for the kind of people who'd write "Mastery of C/C++" thinking they're the same thing.

Recent Windows, Linux and Java Kerberos all standardise on AES* and the ones you list are deprecated and for some have to be explicitly enabled.

So .. progress is being made.
I totally agree with you in principle. However, ultimately the EFF is the one making the argument and I don't personally believe it's going to convince a judge and a jury.

And it's important to sometimes be skeptical, because if they use this argument in a trial and lose then it sets a precedent that can be used in future cases.

And the prosecuting attorneys have plenty of examples where IPs successfully led directly to the perpetrator of a crime. Think of all of the people who have been arrested and prosecuted for online crimes and took a plea bargain.

It's a very uphill battle. I wish the EFF all of the best luck (I myself am a contributor and believer), but I don't think they're going to make much progress with this one.
640x480 was only possible with the memory expansion pack IIRC.
Your assessment is incorrect. It falls below 10%, but the majority of the polygons are "unhappy" and waiting to be randomly moved.

The program gets stuck continually shuffling the polygons around and it looks like it will never finish (I waited several minutes and no progress was made). It seems likely that this is because each polygon that is moved has a high chance of also being "unhappy" at the new random location.

By definition, with 100% bias, the program won't stop until there is full segregation.

Non-violently resisting arrest is a crime in several states. It's ridiculous, you'd just about have to arrest yourself in order to avoid a charge like that.
You occasionally hear about immigrants being smuggled into (a) country in shipping containers. Is that common enough that it's likely that one or more of the stalled containers has a bunch of people stuck in it? That seems like a really unfortunate scenario...

What happens to the crews of these ships? Can they leave? How? Who pays to transport them to shore? Under what authority are they permitted to walk on shore?

Office and factory workers of a suddenly-derelict company can walk off the premises and go home. Imagine finding out that not only will the paychecks stop, you also can't leave your desk.
Awesome website and idea, I really hope it succeeds. Here are some pointer to perhaps improve it.

- User Angular's ng-cloak to hide your variables while the controller is loading. The {{item.display}} makes the site look amateurish

- Don't do nested left panels. Have the options for bills or representatives on the same page that has the trending bills instead of a second left panel

- The dashboard page tries to show too many things at once. I know you're using an admin bootstrap template and that is not a good choice for what you're trying to do. Try to have the main dashboard page focus on a specific topic (trending stories, users, discussions)

- Hire a UX designer instead of using a generic bootstrap template.

Here are some things that I think you're doing really well:

- The search works really well. Are you using ElasticSearch?

- You're doing a good job of showing what I need to know about a specific bill or a representative. The details pages for bills and representatives are complete and well structured good job!

You're not writing Windows 7, is the thing, and there's other common tools in the area of text parsing/mangling which have much more standard licenses.
Yes, copyright is about distribution, indeed.

But licensing isn't purely about copyright! (In the area of proprietary software, it's not even important; the vendor has all the rights and that is clear from the beginning.)

A license is not simply a copyright notice, even if it is on free software. (Though of course it includes one.)

When you give stuff away for free, you can still be liable for harm arising from it. This applies in ordinary situations, like giving your neighbor an old toaster you don't want, and it causing a fire.

So the use aspect of the license with the disclaimer is equally necessary to the rights-granting part.

> If you try to split hairs, and depending on the way you do it, it's questionable if the sentence before the enumerated conditions is part of those conditions or not.

You raise and excellent point, and I'm going to fix it. I can't see any reason why it should not say "... the above copyright notice, all the introductory text which follows, this list of conditions ...". Really, why isn't it simplified to "this entire license". The GPLv2 cheerfully does this, with the wording "... give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License along with the Program." That puts an end to any hair splitting about possibly omitted parts.

It is perfectly logical to say that if there was an assault on a college campus and that the victim said the perp is an "Asian male", for the police to not prioritize the questioning of all non-Asians in the area.

This is not to disagree with you per se, because I do see your edited clarification at the bottom, but one of the problems here is assuming that the eye witness is correct in labeling the individual as "an Asian male" (per your example). Perhaps this is not true. Perhaps he is a short male with black hair, but not necessarily Asian. Perhaps he has some other ethnicity and will actually be overlooked by the police because of the assumption that the witness/victim has labeled them accurately when this may not be the case at all. (I will add: People are also sometimes misgendered.)
Also, modern TVs don't scale the analog input correctly, so some old consoles look much worse now than they would a good CRT. You can buy a framemeister that scales properly, but they are really pricey. The best bet is to play on a CRT (or an emulator)
This reminds me of an anecdote about Godel, not sure if it's true or not, but here goes. When he was taking the Constitution exam to get the US citizenship, he proceeded to explain to the judge how he has a formal proof that the US Constitution is inconsistent and allows for a dictatorship to take over completely legally. Einstein was accompanying him and he somehow managed to quickly shut him up and continue to go through the motions of the exam.

It also, for some reason, reminds me of what Peter Thiel once said about physics PhDs: “Because they know fundamental things, they think they know everything.”
I grew up in Oak Park, and the result is remarkable, I don't know of any other place like it, especially before it got so much more expensive, in the 80s and 90s. I knew vaguely that this was somewhat engineered, but I never knew to what degree until I saw this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y4dzaRJfLpo which is an interview with Roberta Raymond, the architect of Oak Park's successful integration. Some of the things that were done:

1. Provide cheap insurance to homeowners against price declines, so that they would not fear the neighborhood flipping to African American and losing their investment.

2. Creating the Oak Park Regional Housing Center, a essentially a non-profit real estate agency not subject to many of the discrimination laws.

3. Agressive code enforcement against apartment building owners who might let properties decline in anticipation of the neighborhood going African-American and low income, but being willing to negotiate if they put their listings exclusively with the Housing Center.

4. Testing real estate agents for violation of fair housing laws, but agreeing to let them slide if they agreed to list exclusively with the Housing Center.

5. Creating an investment vehicle to purchase blighted apartment buildings, listing exclusively through the Housing Center.

5. Making the housing center staff specifically steer based on race, but in the opposite of the normal direction. They would only show all-white buildings to black customers, and show white customers to majority black buildings. The Housing Center did similar steering for single family houses. The specific goal was "a black a block" so that most residents would have an African American neighbor, but that clusters would not form that could cause momentum for houses to sell.

6. School districts drawn to evenly spread out African Americans among all of the schools.

7. Direct community outreach with police visits and conversations with people on the block that might object to an African American resident on their block.

8. Making For Sale signs on lawns illegal.

All in all, an absolutely amazing and masterful piece of social engineering, that has not to my knowledge been replicated anywhere else. That said, this is all fairly heavy handed, and IMO goes right up to, and perhaps past the line of legality.
That sounds like poor police work as much as digital rumors being the problem.

When you're expecting a riot, concentrating a bunch of people together and removing any way for anyone to leave (even people not kettled couldn't leave due to transit being shut down I presume) sounds like you're trying to make a riot.

It sounds like they read the textbook on dealing with riots, but forgot to read the part where you're only meant to do it when people are actually rioting.
It's a shame that this title wasn't more descriptive. Here is the gist, which may interest many more HN readers than the current 17 point rating (buried on page 3) suggests:

"Calyx is a famous, heroic, radical ISP that has been involved in groundbreaking litigation -- they were the first company to ever get a secret Patriot Act warrant unsealed, fighting for 11 years to overturn the gag order. ... For $500, Calyx will send you a little wifi hotspot with a Sprint SIM in it that comes with a year's worth unlimited, anonymous, unshaped, unfiltered 4G/LTE bandwidth on Sprint's network. Unlimited as in, I downloaded 60GB with mine and it didn't break a sweat. ... Subsequent years are $400 (because you don't get another wifi gadget, just the service)."

>Why did you have to simulate pixel level output to sort your polygons ... ?

We essentially rendered every frame with a Z-buffer; it's just that the Z-buffer was running in software on the SGI ahead of time, as the level was processed.

We needed pixel accuracy so that the occlusion was perfect. The BSP tree technique was well understood by then, thanks to Carmack's work on Quake, but we didn't want to split polygons so we used this brute force method instead.

However, as a little bit of disinformation to other developers, we put a big file of random data on the Crash CD called BSPTREE.DAT. You still have to download this huge, pointless data file when you buy the game on PSN. I feel slightly guilty about that. :)

Recall that we're talking in the context of TypeScript vs JavaScript. :P I'm not saying that it's impossible for dynamic languages to be able to refactor, but the truth in the industry is that your choice is probably between JavaScript and TypeScript, not JavaScript and VisualWorks Smalltalk. ;)
Yep. Mario Paint 64 was the name used during development. By the time it got released it became three titles and was released under Mario Artist.
The cancer research is developed from the absorption of I-131 (iodine is taken up by the body and accumulates in the thyroid). There is a really fabulous look at I-131 levels post Fukishima and post Chernobyl here: http://hps.ne.uiuc.edu/rets-remp/PastWorkshops/2011/presenta... and of particular interest to readers of these comments will be Slide #70 (overlaying the two) showing that Fukishima sent nearly an order of magnitude less I-131 into the environment than Chernobyl did. Further you generally have to eat or drink I-131 to get it inside your body[1] and as all of Japan was undergoing the tsunami disaster at the time, many of the crops were destroyed.

Credible sources such as the CDC[2] and the IAEA have been studying this risk with obviously limited data sets and have concluded that unless you are on site and hit with a high dose of radiation, you are going to be fine.

[1] "Human exposure to I-131 released from nuclear power plant accidents comes mainly from consuming contaminated water, milk, or foods. People may also be exposed by breathing dust particles in the air that are contaminated with I-131." -- https://www.cancer.gov/about-cancer/causes-prevention/risk/r...

[2] "The long-term recovery process after a radiation emergency can lead to increased emotion and psychological distress. In addition, people who receive high doses of radiation could have a greater risk of developing cancer later in life, depending on the level of radiation exposure. For people who receive low doses of radiation, the risk of cancer from radiation exposure is so small that is cannot be separated from exposure to chemicals, genetics, smoking or diet. Health officials will monitor people affected by radiation emergencies for any long-term health effects." -- https://emergency.cdc.gov/radiation/emergencyfaq.asp#24
Is Akamai's DDoS protection tiered? That's not how it works for e.g. CloudFlare: you pay a flat fee and (they claim) they'll keep you up no matter the size or frequency of the attack. If Krebs simply wasn't signed up for a high enough tier than I guess Akamai did the right thing, but if they charge a flat fee for protection and make similar claims to CF then they deserve to be raked over the coals for this.
This is one thing I love about HN. Whenever there is something big going on in some industry, there will be people posting comments here who work in the industry and will explain what is happening, and usually in very clear terms.

I guess this is because every big industry runs on commuters nowadays, so there are all these people who both are in the industry and read HN.
Security mistakes do not make lasting impacts on stock prices in my experience. They tend to be a little hiccup, but afterwards things keep moving along on the existing trend.

A cluster of security mistakes in other companies does seem to increase the price of stocks like FEYE, CUDA & FTNT.

To frame things more constructively, what imagined situation are you most concerned about?

"Here I am, using this program five years from now when, due to the licensing, <bad thing> happens."

What is <bad thing>?

For example, is it something you would suddenly like to do with the program, but are not permitted (yet would be if it used the original BSD license verbatim?)
Has anyone tried this? Sounds great. Fan of Calyx, would be happy to give them money if they have good reviews.

The shipping company doesn't own the cargo, but I've read speculation that the creditors can seize the ships, then demand payment to unload the cargo, and if they don't receive payment seize the cargo to discharge the "debt". I don't know how a bill of lading would work in that situation, where the creditor wasn't the original party that the customer signed a contract with, and I'm curious how much latitude a creditor has in situations like these to abrogate previously-entered contracts.
Interestingly my account is not part of the compromise and my friends are; I can confirm this because they received a message about the compromise and I did not. . .I asked them how long they've had their accounts and they said for about a year; where as I have had my account for about 5 years. Interesting no?
What mario got right wa having things worth exploring. There were free roaming 3D games like Carrier Command (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carrier_Command) released a decade earlier which were great, but everything was the same in all directions.
I specifically said that I didn't mean from a technical point of view. I know full well about typescript's features :) I generally try to avoid talking about things I haven't tried extensively.

And for your second point, I love to learn something new! But that is specifically something I've had to deal with far too many times already (not just with TypeScript), so it wouldn't be new. And it is quite common these days for companies to show you their code when they get near offer time, or to discuss their architecture and coding philosophy, so I very rarely have surprises on that front anymore. Doesn't mean I don't learn new things. I don't avoid things that haven't burnt me yet. Heck, even if they did, it might be because I didn't do it right. But there's only so many times I can get burnt before I start avoiding certain things :)
Was that ever an option?
> obviously A computer at the location that is being used for some purpose

Well "A computer" could be any TCP/IP enabled device nowadays, including a router. So no, it's not reasonable to look at traffic coming from an IP, and say that traffic originated from the physical location of that IP, just because the LAN beyond that router is opaque.

I mean, several ISP IP addresses are involved with routing, but "everybody knows" they're shared machines. But again, simply because a trace route stops at a certain machine doesn't mean the routing actually terminates there - for most cases this is not true. It's just that the person behind the router with NAT often owns all devices on the LAN/opaque side. Using this correlation alone is dangerously inaccurate.

I think they are going to try to heavily expand their brand of tourism as a local. I can see them using this as an added benefit of booking through airbnb vs a hotel, but this would require tons of capital to hire local tour guides/ use locals to create hyperlocal, frequently updated itineraries.

What you do is also very important, and it's normal that a project has people with different levels of skill and knowledge about the details in it. So no, you are not doing it wrong!

If you want to get more into the details:

If you already do useful work for the project, you should be able to ask one of the devs more familiar with the internals for help/review. Try finding some "easy" issues in less scary parts of the code and work on those, then work your way up. Just because you don't understand all aspects enough doesn't mean you can't start working on some of them.

If you as someone quite familiar with the project has trouble getting started, that should be a sign that onboarding (e.g. high-level documentation of what happens internally) could be improved, and hopefully is something other devs support. Maybe you could write docs about what you learn and have it reviewed by them -> learning effect for you, better docs for the project.
