I'm voting Trump because I feel Hillary is unimpeachable in the bad sense of the term. I hope they both get their many days in court and are prosecuted for any wrongdoing. If Trump is president, the media will do it's job, Twitter, Google, Facebook, the networks and papers will work diligently against him, and Trump has many enemies in the GOP. I hope for bipartisan opposition to Trump to reign in and deter in the future the imperial powers the presidency has accrued.

Congrats! Small note, none of the listings appear when using uBlock Origin [ https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/ublock-origin/cjpa... ], a popular ad blocker.

It seems related to your /js/ads-controller.js file (it gets blocked because of the "/js/ads-" portion in the path).

I would suggest fixing that (and preferably minimizing your JS into one bundle).
Awesome story! Just as a heads up with uBlock Origin in Chrome on macOS one is greeted with a header followed by a white page. Everything loaded with once I shut it off.

Twitter fired its VR manager because of something he posted to Facebook in 2013
The idea that plurality optimized for centrists is unsupported by empirical evidence and is based on abstract theory that ignored the role of base mobilization, public communication, and imperfect information. It's basically a naïve application of rational choice theory.

Also, that's precious little evidence that the US political spectrum has ever looked anything like a Gaussian distribution.
There is no purpose of marketing unlimited data if it can get "ruined" by people who use lots of data.

Anyway, why do you need unlimited data if you don't use a lot of data?
I must admit I don't know. It does not appear to be necessary, I assume it's implied in one way or another for `no_mangle` extern functions. However I must also admit that I did not look into the exact mechanics.

I do know that if you bind to a function that is linked in that you need it.
Her private view is that fracking should be expanded quite liberally - as was disclosed in hacked emails - and that diversification of energy sources is useful for thwarting the economic influence that oil-and-gas-producing nations (such as Russia) can muster.

I mean, it's smart. But it is in no way honest.
You're totally right. I can't stand his work. Just even trying to read it feels pretentious.

Windows binary is statically compiled in Linux via mingw, Linux binary is semi static (Qt, libtorrent and libmpv are compiled in binary).

Android version uses gomobile/gobind library and native interface.
One issue is statistics can be super boring if taught incorrectly. I am an engineer too, loved probability but found statistics to be 'shoot me in the head' boring.

the class really needs to be taught well for people to understand it. also. i think it should include probability too.

Upvoted. Keen did get a few falsifiable predictions wrong, but his work on bank endogenous money creation, debt instability, and rate based economic modeling I think merit much more serious research in mainstream economics, along with the MMT school. Good of you to mention.
I think this or something like this can probably work if you're okay with losing all data that wasn't acked by a majority (though I suspect actually recovering a divergent replica would be very difficult), but this doesn't work with the batch commit idea at all, does it? Seems like it enforces strict serial ordering of writes (even nonconflicting ones).
First, because not everyone in the infosec community is a single issue voter.

Second, because to all appearances so far, her opponent would be at least as bad on this issue. Remember, Trump briefly advocated a boycott of Apple if they wouldn't decrypt a phone for the FBI.
You may have "Newspeak" confused with "Doublespeak" (or I may have denuded Newspeak of its political goals). Isn't the word "doublespeak" itself an instance of Newspeak (or Basic English)? Replacing a latinization with a pair of simpler words, for instance, is what has happened in the conversion from "patronize" to "mansplain".

At any rate: the two words, patronize and mansplain, mean the same thing, so feigning offense at the gendering of "mansplain" is a pitiful way to build an argument.

Eight or nine years ago, I conceived a plan that I was going to have CAT-5 run through my house someday, once I found someone to do it. Here it is 2016, I have trade workers throughout my house doing a renovation and I won't bother. I'm not sure why I'm going to the trouble of bringing indoors the twisted pairs of the phone jacks so I can use POTS from every room. Everything I have, as a 57-yo fuddy-duddy, is wireless.

“When you see a dictator landing in Geneva, it could be a good thing. It could mean the leader is coming as part of a diplomatic effort, to take part in peace talks,” Pilet tells Newsweek.

“But at the same time, Switzerland is a safe haven for powerful people from third world countries, for people who want to stash away the money that they have stolen from their people.”

Why is the context of this article not relevant? Sure, the fact that she thinks encryption should be back-doored is foolish. But what's more foolish? Not believing in man-made climate change (her main opponent's position) or not believing in strong encryption? That's not even considering the question of which candidate would be more willing to change their views in response to logical arguments. In my opinion, the answer to that question should be obvious.
On topics that were traditionally feminine, like housework, childcare or cooking, women can be really condescending.

I still remember the tone used by the nurse when she "taught" to my brother how to change the diapers of his newborn. I've never seen someone that condescending.

You seemingly missed my comment about Apple machines not being
developer-oriented. A developer isn't Apple's target user.

Why not? A MacBook Pro is standard issue for developers at most companies, and there are probably more developers buying Macs than designers, photographers, or video editors. Also, Apple's flagship products, the iPhone and iPad, require a Mac to develop for, so selling a computer that's good for software development is also an investment in the future of those platforms.
Trump is simply unacceptable, there's no establishment conspiracy required. In fact I thought the major media outlets waited far too long to give up the pretense of normalcy. It's only the last few weeks that journalists get to write the by-now established fact that he's a lunatic.

But I share the concern about HC, considering she's just far too conservative on major issues especially with regards to encryption/"national security" etc. She's not corrupt, or evil or crooked or lying or smelling as sulfur, she's just (imho) wrong. Let's hope there will be people around her who can have a positive impact on her thinking.

Kind of what workstations used to cost, took me back to the 80's and my time at Sun.

The key here is all open. From mass storage to memory to boot you can "own" the entire system. There is no way to build that at any where close to this price with existing x86 machines. Just negotiating the NDA alone to have access to the TCM area of the chip would probably be $50K in lawyers fees.

That said, I had the same thought at you, $18K ? Really? Who are they kidding? And then I thought about my PC purchases over the last 12 years. I've spent about that much (granted I did so by upgrading and replacing systems every 2 - 3 years) But my last system is now 4 years old and frankly not really in that much need of replacing.

Personally I think IBM should fund this and order 200 work stations for one of its engineering teams. Get their feedback on it. Would be an interesting experiment for them.
Indeed, I'm as likely to ignore the advice of other parents as I am to ignore non-parents. A lot of parenting advice from parents is survivor bias or outright bragging.

In fact, I'm actually skeptical about the effect of parenting in general, versus the influence of genetics.

What Trump data has been leaked/hacked?
Because he leaves his supporters to assume his agenda is theirs by never explicitly stating it: Against backdoor crypto? so is Trump. For a backdoor crypto, so is Trump.

there is one real reason to vote for her opponent, regardless how odd he may be at times. Congress and the Press will give her a pass to do as she wants whereas they will hound Trump day in and day out.

We need an active press, not one that thinks itself part of the government. One that doesn't take orders from the Administration and one that isn't afraid to ask the questions that need to be asked.

The mechanism seems to be that this seaweed contains bromoform (known as tribromomethane to the squares):

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/27009670

And bromoform poisons methanogenic bacteria:

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22059589

Given that bromoform is the same shape as methane but with a monster dipole because of the electronegative bromines, i assume it's a straightforward active site inhibitor. Oldest trick in the book.

The methanogenic bacteria consume hydrogen and CO2 to make methane, so with them inhibited, there's just more hydrogen and CO2 in the gut. It shouldn't make a massive difference to the animal, except there are three times as many gas molecules, so presumably they burp more often.

Goldman Sachs will pay $5.06bn for its role in the 2008 financial crisis, the US Department of Justice said on Monday. The settlement, over the sale of mortgage-backed securities from 2005 to 2007, was first announced in January.

“This resolution holds Goldman Sachs accountable for its serious misconduct in falsely assuring investors that securities it sold were backed by sound mortgages, when it knew that they were full of mortgages that were likely to fail,” acting associate attorney general Stuart Delery said in a statement.

I hadn't seen this site before, and I think it's a great idea. Though I'm young, I am certainly terrified about the trend of age discrimination in the valley - after all, we all age! I'm glad to folks trying to make a meaningful difference in the trend. Perhaps through good samaritans such as OP, those same twenty-somethings that reject so many qualified applicants on account of age will receive better treatment when they themselves reach 35 or 40.

I'm not saying progress isn't happening — I'm saying that there's a big difference between a discipline and what interaction design is in 2016.

I think these incremental steps are good, but it's going to take the equivalent of the Bauhaus to solve this problem. You need a strong foundational movement to anchor people's work. You're right that the problems have been solved, but they aren't being upheld very well.

Every CRS Report
The article itself is actually very generous to Clinton, as it primarily questions Trump's policies, features a ridiculing picture of him, and praises Clinton's policy documents (focusing, actually, on the number of pages rather than their clarity, consistency or purposes). They also snub Trump for questioning whether the hacks of the DNC were supported by the government of Russia.

In doing so this article falls prey to much of what plagues the media during the election cycle. Broadly aligned against particular candidates and willing to take widely biased and selective approaches toward writing and editing about them, they fail to say much of anything substantive at all.

For instance this article can't come up with what a good policy might look like, any particular appraisal of either candidate's policies (it merely cites pages and makes an issue of known Clinton's backdoor policies).

The article mentions that both candidates consider Snowden a traitor, with Trump explicitly using the word and Clinton calling for Snowden to be extradited to the United States under investigation for violating the Espionage Act.

Reading between the lines the article emphasizes that Silicon Valley doesn't understand or trust the policies from either candidate, but appears to have a stronger majority support for Clinton due to issues not related to either campaign promises or policy directions.

EDIT: People below in the thread take issue with the term "libelous" so I replaced it with "ridiculing".
Shrewd, this story is just going to bring more visitors. :-)
Probably the encryption one. But you know that your question is silly.
I thought I was on medium.com.. You need to add a call to action to the end of your post! Add a short line - "if you've experienced ageism checkout these job listsing at /link" or "to see what I built visit /link" or something similar. Lots of lazy people want to click a link at the end of your post to see your site rather than trying to find a link in your profile or scrolling all the way to the top. Plus when someone inevitably copies your content, you get a free link.

Yes, stats. Also logic.

If we can't have better math instruction, let's at least have more relevant math instruction. Calculus is very useful in some disciplines, like physics, but startlingly useless elsewhere. Cool, yes. But useless.

I haven't updated my iphone because I read the notes and one of the things it does is give me a "new and improved" maps application.

The last time apple did that to me I stopped being able to turn randomize on and off in the music app (they did eventually bring it back, but I was floored that it was ever removed in the first place).

The thing is, I have exactly 0 complaints about the map app. They can only make it worse.

So I'm avoiding the entire update because I'm afraid they're going to do to the map app what they did to the music app.
Love the design of the instruction set. It was a lot of fun reverse engineering it and mulling over the design space. Thanks.
Microsoft campus is in the middle of very stereotypical suburbia, and it's lovely, and a non-insubstantial factor my continued employment there. In contrast, I would turn down pretty much any place in Seattle proper, after having some experience working in downtown Vancouver.

At the same time, I know many people that do prefer to work in a middle of a city.

And there's nothing wrong with that. Different strokes for different folks and all that.

Perhaps the author should make fewer assumptions about what other people do and don't like?
People have been predicting MacOS/OSX on ARM for a long time now (at least since the A6).

Never heard of the AOL one, but I always find it funny that some how people think that bootcamps are new.

I would wager that more people learned to code via a bootcampish route (especially between 1995 and 2005) than through CS/SE degrees.

The before the dotCom bubble burst there were advertisements for Java/C++/SAP/ASP/W/E++ programming certificate courses on every website/newspaper.

Then there was a consolidation period with CS degree again becoming some sort of a filter pre-requisite and now where the "demand" at least for cheap(er) labor (and labor with 50-100K+ in student debt can never be cheap) bootcamps are touted as the next best thing again.

The only difference really is back then those certifications could actually easily land you a job because companies would advertise specifically for "XYZ certified programmers".

Now it's LF Full-Stack Engineer 19 years of experience in some framework that is 2 years old and is going to be in perpetual beta until its decline.

Thats not saying that bootcamp graduates won't find a job, they'll just be thrown into the same recruitment hell pool.

> so selling a computer that's good for software development is also an investment in the future of those platforms

I'm at a loss as-to why folks still don't "get it" that Apple has never been friendly to their developers. They still don't see developers as their primary target, evidenced by all of the things they've done lately to OSX/macOS, the until-recent ban of virtualizing OSX/macOS, non-replaceable hardware components, etc.

> Also, Apple's flagship products, the iPhone and iPad, require a Mac to develop for

That's not a technical limitation - that's a planned sales channel limitation. Forcefully compelled to purchase their hardware every few years. It's very smart, from a sales perspective, but has nothing to do with Apple favoring developers (actually, one could strongly argue the opposite simply due to this fact).

> A MacBook Pro is standard issue for developers at most companies

Just because this occurs doesn't mean Apple thinks developers are their primary target for their hardware.

It's likely safe to say that no one on HN is in the target demographic for Apple hardware. We aren't "normal" users, and we must admit it. Calls for developer-oriented gear isn't going to come to fruition simply by wishing it.

I agree, it would be nice if they did view developers as being an important demographic, but sadly, there is more evidence to the contrary.

> Why not?

That seems to be a good question for Mr. Cook and gang.
Nice! I'm glad to see work being done in this area.
