All these articles weigh in, ponderously, on the ethics of this, but continue to spread the information. Presumably, and hopefully, a report on doxxing would not include the personal information that was released, but that's essentially what's being done here. Why?

I think such a story is difficult now unless its a niche small market. Lets say someone start a company and stumble-upon a massive market but decides to grow slow financed by revenue. The problem is others are going to copy the idea and grow fast with VC money and crush the original company. May be possible in the next downturn when VC money dries up

in theory yes but i don't see any proof that traffic would increase as much as the increased capacity. reminds me of bogus economic arguments. in your universe we could make a 10,000 lane highway and there would still be congestion.
New type of anonymous sites like 4chan
We have written software that allows peer to peer content sharing that uses encryption to guarantee anonymity. It would eliminate server costs and also prevent anyone from being able to take the content down.

There is some similar research from others groups, but in comparison their systems is like eGold where this is secure with distributed proof of work and stake (not custody)

It may not be perfect, but once other people see the methods, it would not be able to be stopped. That is the problem - it's strength is there there is no way to prevent any content - even some that may be considered criminal.

Do we release the software? How do we keep from being arrested for doing so (Based in the UK and US)?

While I think it's true that organic is big in Denmark, e.g. common kindergartens in my area generally seem to be using mostly organic food in their kitchens, I don't think the summary is accurate in the sense that there's a long, long way before the whole country has switched to organic production. Or consumption for that matter. If it will ever happen.

The article is quoting the previous government, by the way, the current one just announced it's going to cut the temporary subsidies given to farms switching to organic production.
I don't want to live in a society that organizes around the notion that catching bad actors is the most important thing. There are too many perverse incentives.
> organic is [...] often a proxy for higher quality in general, but that's not universally true.

Agree.

> Modern inorganic farming methods are necessary for feeding the world. If the whole world switched to organic farming, there would be cataclysmic mass starvation.

Most certainly false! By reducing meat consumption or increasing labor intensity organic agriculture could easily support the whole world.

For many of the places where food security is needed the most, increased soil quality, as supported by organic agriculture, would help a lot. http://www.unep.org/pdf/SmallholderReport_WEB.pdf
Social networks are in practice a natural monopoly. Having the operation of the natural monopoly pass be handled by the state is one solution.

I think another solution is for the state to force the operator of the social network to keep its APIs open. (It's anti-competitive to do otherwise, would be the argument.)

I think it's interesting that there's a Wiki page about this issue.[0]

If you want food done right in Europe, you go to Italy, of course! It's 'real' food (not necessarily 'organic') that tastes good, and gets lots of sunlight, so all kinds of delicious things grow.

>As a studied male, I can surely assert that writing has traditionally been seen as a feminine and not masculine enterprise, much like teaching or nursing are seen in modern times. Women flat out effing dominate literature historically, so I don't really like inferences to the contrary

Really? I got the exact opposite impression. In fact, didn't George Sand take on a masculine pseudonym precisely because the fine arts were male-dominated?
National primary turnout (as a whole or for any one party) is neither really meaningfully comparable across elections (because of changes in methodology of particular primaries, changes in timing between primaries, differences in the course of elections which change the perceived value of voting in later primaries, etc.) nor predictive of general election turnout (so pointing to primary turnout as evidence of a party's or its nominee's strength in the general election is meaningless.)
It doesn't inspire much confidence that the pushers of Organic food are huge conglomerates that push people into buying needlessly expensive food.
Sure, they could, but it doesn't make business sense. This scheme might even cause a class action lawsuit from the people who bought it AFTER they knew it was fraud but BEFORE they removed it. Refunds very likely cost money in the form of credit card transaction fees and wages (people doing the refunding as well as CS fielding calls for two days).
> Do I think using a real name or pen name or any kind of pseudonym is a fool-proof, legally protected avenue to avoid being the responsible person for one's art? Not really.

I don't think anyone has claimed this. People seem to be claiming only that Ferrante's moral, not legal, rights have been abrogated.

> Women flat out effing dominate literature historically, so I don't really like inferences to the contrary.

Wait, what? That women were encouraged to write I can certainly buy, but are you seriously asserting that their efforts are equally celebrated? I find it hard to believe that a list of, say, the 100 most popular authors would include a ratio of women to men in balance with the general population (and also doubt that any such imbalance could be explained by a difference of ability, rather than of recognition).

In the US it is actually quite common (if not consistent) that newborns have blood samples taken for screening. I would be surprised if those samples are destroyed after, so we are certainly well on our way.
The risk with that is they can likely instruct you to retain and/or provide them with access needed to retain such records.
> I visited Denmark from San Francisco in 2014. The food there was atrociously expensive. ATROCIOUS.

I live in Austria where food is also expensive and most is organic but that's mainly because there is a 20% VAT tax on it, not because production is that much more expensive.

I do think that our vegetables are tastier than in the US but I doubt it has anything to do with organic.

I was at the meetup they held a few weeks ago at Atlassian; probably the most interesting bit to me (as a 10+ year SF resident) was Jeff Kositsky discussion about some of the structural work the city was doing to address the issues -- namely reorganizing three different groups into one, streamlining data collection and reporting, and trying to get services more accessible.
You are entirely correct (p< 0.05). To be fair, psychology is a broad church. Within it, we have people like Jacob Cohen, Daniel Kahneman and Tversky (mathematical psychologists awarded a Nobel in Economics).

But apparently we also have Susan Fiske. I think that the real difficulty with psychology is that people care too much. Its a little easier to be objective around the decay of atomic particles than about the intelligence of different genders and races.

Additionally, many psychologists are not comfortable with statistics. A large proportion went into psychology to avoid maths, and are somewhat disappointed to discover that this does not work.

So they follow guidelines, and paste tables from SPSS into MS Word (no automation for some reason), and stuff like this happens.

They don't use cross-validation and they are too much in love with their models, and the theory that said models facilitate.

I suppose this was a pretty long-winded way to say "Not all psychologists!"

Should have been more clear. No records should be stored on the Bitcoin blockchain, only a hash of the data. Using a service like Tierion, a hash of your data is anchored into the Bitcoin blockchain, and Tierion gives you back a blockchain receipt. That blockchain receipt is a cryptographic proof that can be used to verify the integrity of that data at a later point in time.

You're wearing some extremely hefty rose-coloured nationalistic glasses. For example, the golden period was very early in the story, isn't yet 3000 years old, yet you're claiming 5000 years of dominance?

But ultimately, it's silly to have this kind of nationalistic association, because the Greeks of the golden period had a very different society to modern Greeks. Where is your Athenian direct democracy? Where is your Spartan warrior cult? Where are your slaves? Where is the widespread demand for Greek-educated workers? Where are your city-states, each having their own international relations and cultural aspects?

And, ultimately, where is the modern Greek's love of learning and knowledge, for which we lionise ancient Greece? As far as I can tell, the modern Greek is no more interested in education than any other typical modern European. I live in the biggest Greek-population city outside of Greece itself, in the Greek-est suburb, and my experiences are that modern Greeks love life and family most, and aren't so interested in higher learning, art, and music (no more than any other demographic). Yes, ex-pat Greeks are a little different culturally to native Greeks, but not that much. It's not like modern Greeks have a particularly notable reputation for education, like Jewish people do.

Ancient and modern Greece are two different places, as were the Greeces in-between, just like modern Italy is not Rome, even though they use the same alphabet.
I don't think the namespace issue is as big of a deal as you seem to think it is. People are used to dealing with namespaces when they make phone calls, send emails, send a letter, get a license plate, or go to a website.
That study shows that organic farmers make money, not that organic farming can keep up with world demand on food. So Im not sure that this demonstrates that GP was "highly incorrect".
Huh? No.
I doubt the purchasing power of Denmark is more than the purchasing power in San Francisco.

But even if you are right, that doesn't mean a good should be so expensive ... just because it CAN be expensive.

Also, its easy for Danes to distort the cultivation practices abroad by encouraging low yield practices to entertain their organic fetish. But that reduced yield forces additional open space to be brought under cultivation ... reducing wild habitat.

There are ways of doing agriculture sustainably, with a mix of traditional practices and a measured and scientific use of fertilizer and pesticide. Just because pesticide and fertilizer can be abused, does not mean they are abusive by nature.
Arun from Couchbase, few points ...

1 - Unabashedly, our #1 commitment is to our customers who are relying on Couchbase for their mission critical applications. That's why the Couchbase Enterprise Edition gets the bulk of our attention and testing.

2 - History can show that's it's actually more like 3-6 months of delay rather that 8-10 and corresponds more to our release cycles than to an artificially imposed delay.

3 - Couchbase major releases has always had CE and EE in sync.

4 - Couchbase CE is provided as a service to the community. Users who want to rely upon their own expertise to run a database in production have a responsibility to themselves and their organization to have the appropriate level of skills to do so. That should mean being able to debug and fix bugs themselves. In fact, our open source code base does not lag AT ALL and anyone is welcome to build off of that themselves and get all of the latest and greatest features (and bugs of course). If they're not willing to do this, they should be paying us to.
Here's how I'd state my interpretation:
"Statistical analysis suggests that supercentenarians are becoming more common. However, even as their numbers increase overall, the number of people aged beyond 115 is negligible."

The abstract for the paper itself ( http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/vaop/ncurrent/full/natu... ), seems to only discuss the statistical existence of an aging limit, not the biological mechanism(s) causing it.
Exactly. I have personally been on the receiving end of plenty of phone calls from users who had no idea they couldn't necessarily trust an application downloaded from a 3rd party site. "But it's the same application!" Sure it is, but who knows what else you're getting, even if it's as 'benign' as shitty toolbars. Has no one ever seen a parent/grandparents nightmare of toolbar hell in a browser window?

I used to have Dash when it was still free and in beta, but had some use hiccups (was on an older machine) and recently considered getting a license for it and getting the iOS versions as well... So now I have a problem, because my main point was not the Mac version (I could even use the emacs compatible package to browse Dash documentation) but iOS, and that can't be maintained.
I'm trying to imagine the sort of system where a migration from "human" to "group" accounts results in a flag for fraud on that account. It's giving me nightmares. Surely they are more competent than the code/architecture I'm imagining it would take.

I'm going to hypothesize that this isn't a technology glitch. It seems more likely that the move triggered a look at his account by some human who for reasons that are unknown to us decided his account looked fishy.
So instead of fobbing him off they should have said "sorry, on the help desk we can't see that information, I'm escalating this issue to X who will contact you with more information in Y days"
I really hope it's not the case, and would be a dick move, but perhaps this is another sign that Apple is bringing development tools natively to iOS.
So they shouldn't run it on the old papers, so as to not offend anyone's sensibilities?

Do we just declare said papers completely useless then? Or do they keep getting cited by new papers, and used to guide policy? If the latter, then not vetting them using the newer and better methodology would be unethical.
I've tried not using the arrow keys, but my problem is that I use the dvorak layout at home, and typing jcvp to maneuver around (what hjkl maps to) confuses me too much. Especially since I use vim at work as well on the normal qwerty layout. Maybe I'll try again soon. In the meantime, I'll try to incorporate *, #, and gi into my muscle memory (for both layouts).

The dvorak layout (and especially switching layouts) saved me from a lot of pain, so I don't plan on ditching it any time soon.
This is quite sad. I know nothing about this author so I looked up Wikipedia and this is a quote from her:

Once I knew that the completed book would make its way in the world without me, once I knew that nothing of the concrete, physical me would ever appear beside the volume—as if the book were a little dog and I were its master—it made me see something new about writing. I felt as though I had released the words from myself.

I feel whoever investigated this knowingly taken away her art from her. It isn't super hard to identify someone who has written so much and the fact is that she never made it like a sport or challenged anyone. It's like someone with a gun has this need to hunt deer who was just minding her business just to assert their skills.

San Francisco is very different from the rest of the US, particularly in the quality and cost of food.

So, the cost comparison may be apt although this page, which compare cost of living between San Francisco and Denmark suggests that groceries in San Francisco are way more expensive (nearly 60%), although restaurants are cheaper (16%).

a) He's a troll. Look at his patterns around specific requests: he asks for something (an operator, an example), and when one's shown that doesn't count. His messages aren't signed with his name. It's textbook delay-and-befuddlement, right out of that old OSS field manual.

b) Why should I, as a bank account holder, value a bank that uses TLS 1.2 with decryption devices (after the release of TLS 1.3) more highly than one that uses no encryption at all?

No it's not, food is expensive in Europe and in Denmark period.
The purchasing power is high, but the cost of food are not remotely cheap to the local population, Danes spend more than twice the percentage of their annual income on food than the their fellow Americans.
Also the purchasing power of a US citizen is about 25% higher than that of a Danish citizen.

Yes, this should be continually updated (since it's (for the most part) pull from the same API that they have on their own tracking sites).

It won't ever say "this is later than expected" so you'd need to cache the originally scheduled date, but what you're doing should be possible.
I find it hard to understand how something that is clearly an automated bot, posting comments that are 100% factual ("I checked this paper; N things looked wrong"), could be perceived as humiliating.

I guess it would be the case if you assumed that all people are perfect and never make mistakes. I would hope that psychologists, of all people, would know better than that.

So if it's not that, where's the humiliation part in pointing out math mistakes?

A plug for it: I love Dash. I was on the fence for a while ("I'm not more than a terminal window away from 'man foo'; why pay for it?") but now I love having a common interface to lots of the docs I use. It also integrates nicely with common editors, so a single key combo in Emacs pops open a Dash window for the thing I was looking at. Yeah, I know Emacs has that built-in, but Dash in a separate window on a separate screen is still more pleasant to use and look at.
The Bitcoin blockchain is really great for value transfer and data integrity.

You want a hash of your data stored in the Bitcoin blockchain, that can referenced at a later point in time to validate the accuracy of the data.
