That's because for us mortals, the flavor is completely overpowered by the capsaicin in most cases. I have relatively low capsaicin tolerance, and so I can't tell the difference between flavors of two different but equally spicy peppers because my brain is too occupied with the burn. It's hard not to focus on it.
They are not exactly unconnected. Unrestricted root access would let you set up your own iptables rules and direct packets to the cellular network. This is how tethering worked on rooted phones before the carriers offered it as a service.

Now you are correct, and carriers responded to those demands from users for mobile networking with (usually metered or priced as an addon) "mobile hotspot" applications.

Contrary to your earlier claims, the advanced Android and iPhone user communities are not insignificant and may have played a part in getting demands like these met.

Places like androidpolice, and sites like engadget, lifehacks, gizmodo and others cater to this market, and drive popular knowledge of root modifications and jail breaking. Previous incarnations of Cyanogenmod boasted large numbers of downloads in the 100s of thousands if not millions.
Welll they play on your brain so even when aware you sometimes get caught in it. Like upselling tricks: overdone they indeed turn me away for sure, but subtle things like phone capacity or bundled items or cpu megahertz? It's the magic of nonlinear pricing and 'it's just 5% more!'
This touches on one of most concerning questions about climate change. The entire west Antarctic ice sheet is predicted to raise sea levels by 16 feet in the northern hemisphere when it collapses [0]. 16 feet is enough to shut every working port in the world. What is the minimum time such a collapse would take? I have a feeling that most labs that model this stuff simply do not publish the minimum (worst case) numbers because no one would believe how quickly globalization could come to a screeching halt.

OP means the tokens that have the map on them. The gift store sells tablets.

Insta-edit: I see you also get a token with your tablet. Original article should be updated, then, because it says

> For this reason, Memory of Mankind will has engraved some small tokens with a map pinpointing the archives’ location, which they will then bury at strategic places around the world. Other tokens are being entrusted to 50 holders who will pass them onto the next generation.

... as if these are the only ones.

In any case, they should sell tokens for much cheaper. If more people buy them, (a) they'll make more revenue, and (b) there will be more maps scattered around the Earth.

At a much slower rate.

If the paint in my personal home starts peeling, my incentive to fix it is higher - I don't want to walk down the hall and see peeling paint.

If the paint in a corporate-owned tenement starts leaking, what incentive does the corporation have to repair it? They will do the bare minimum to prevent me suing them for breach of contract. A tenant is unlikely to sue over peeling paint. And they actively discouraged from re-painting, as they will likely lose their security deposit should they paint in any color other than generic off-white.
Quartz oscillators are usually made in at leas 10th of kHz range, for whatever reason. Second most stable oscillators are LC and would require large coils for lower frequencies.
You seem to think that new small businesses don't contribute to productivity, which is bunk.
WhatsApp used to use your devices MAC address for authentication. A quick screenshot of the vicitim's settings page would be enough to send and receive messages in their name. Since whatsapp does not store messages after they have been delivered, the victim would never see the messages sent from his whatsapp number (except when looking at the recipients phone). You could, however, realize that your account has been hacked when you notice that some messages were not arriving (they would arrive at the attacker's client only and whatsapp will not transmit already recived message again).

The only fix was to buy a new phone and hope nobody will make a screenshot of your settings page again (or spoofe your MAC address which would not always work).

That is possible. But the article gives me no reason why this particular map would stand out as interesting apart from all the others. At the very least, if "look at the time and care devoted to this hobby" were the goal, you'd be able to make a much juicier article by considering other cases, more impressive projects, such as one-man megawads that took more than 300 hours to make.. full of maps that are on average larger and harder (and longer in the time required to play sens) and prettier than the original iwad maps.

This is true for the tokens which generate numbers you type in. I don't think it's the case for USB tokens, however.
>I think running eslint --fix will even change your "let"s to "const"s where appropriate, but don't quote me on that.

Yep, this is the relevant rule - http://eslint.org/docs/rules/no-var

Though it just replaces all var with let. I expected it to intelligently use either const or let depending on how the variable is used ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
> Routers and gateways with pretty damn simple algorithms could detect and prevent these types of attacks

I am not sure it's that simple really. the whole point of ddos is that it's distributed so that each node doesn't need to do a whole lot of traffic(and filtering out the traffic at the other side is really hard because of the distributed nature of it).

the main reason this stuff happens is that security is not a feature that most people care about and won't pay for it because they are ignorant of how the system works. The managers decide not to make security a priority.
Perhaps it is fortuitous that music isn't 'in tune' with everyday background noise. The fact that the frequencies (now consistent) are entirely separate from the buzz of a transformer or garage door opener puts music in its own plane just a bit more magical and pleasing than the quotidian drone we tend to ignore.

Then again, maybe it's just a number and our brains couldn't care less either way.

Housing != home ownership. Anyway, I have read this a few places, but here is the first link I found. "Regions with higher home ownership created fewer new businesses, had longer commute times, and lower rates of labor mobility." http://www.fool.com/investing/general/2013/05/08/the-deep-do...

Further, GDP is a very short term view of the economy. Daycare is a classic example where going from an informal to formal system nominally increases GDP much more than the net increase in value.

As long as they don't change their format I'm ok with this. They seem to go to a great deal of trouble to discuss all the possible options, and criteria they used to write their recommendations. That allows me to judge for myself to a degree which I really like. Several times I have not bought their recommendation and have gone with something else because I felt like I was more informed about what I was looking for from reading their article, which is still good in my book.

That's a BIG deal. I guess I should go uninstall Windows 10 from all the High-DPI devices that I'm running it on right now and install...what? I'm guessing that anything that's not perfect qualifies as a disaster in your opinion.

Could you recommend an OS for me? I'll go and make sure that there are no critical articles about it and that the OS manufacturer has never had to fix anything because every major release came out perfectly the first time. Thanks!

Anecdote allowed?

This reminds me of the Habanero Burger at "The Swinging Door" pub (I'm not sure it had the same name when I went there occasionally over 10 years ago, the first time actually almost 20 years ago in 1997) in San Mateo, CA [0]. (EDIT: It was the Prince of Wales pub previously! Lots of Habanero Burger stories: [1])

They had a "Wall of Flame" with stickers from all people who "survived" eating one. You had to sign a release form before you got your burger (shown in [1]). As another ex-colleague of mine used to say: Good spicy food hurts twice...

I only ever ate one tiny piece off a colleague's plate. Initially I thought "I feel nothing, what's the big deal?" I then spent a good part of the next half hour with my tongue hung out under flowing water from the faucet in the bathroom.

The people I saw try it either ate very fast, to be finished before the full pain set in, or very, very slowly. Except for an Indian friend of mine, who seemed pretty unmoved and ate the whole burger normally.

By the way, I don't remember the day of the week, but I always went there when the "Silicon Gulch Jazz Band" was playing [2][3]. Back then the (good) singer, an old guy (like all others in that band), played a washboard, really cool. The music was really good (the singing too) :-)

How do you feel about `const` for variables that are not reassigned but are still mutated?

const array = [1, 2, 3];
array.push(100); // unexpected?

I prefer to use let for bindings to objects that get mutated, even if the variable is not re-bound.

To me this just seems part of democracy. Popular ideas will get a lot of financial support, and unpopular ideas will not get a lot of support. Have you considered the reach, the power and the wealth of the media establishment that is railing against Trump? I highly doubt that a million dollar is more than a drop in this contest. If Trump should not be allowed to get substantial financial support, why don't we simply forbid Trump to run at all?
It wasn't a ghost pepper, but I once at a small green pepper that was so hot that my tastebuds kind of short circuited, and all I could taste was roses.

Recently I have taken it upon myself to gain a basic understanding of philosophy and linear algebra. I found this primer book (http://www.qcc.cuny.edu/SocialSciences/ppecorino/INTRO_TEXT/...) and I try to read it when I have some free time.

For linear algebra, I have been watching this MIT OpenCourseWare lecture series taught by Gilbert Strang: https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/mathematics/18-06sc-linear-algeb...

MITOCW is a great place for anyone looking to expand on their current knowledge base and an alternative for those seeking to take a course that they did not have the opportunity to take in college.

I'd be interested to see how someone would fare by chewing on some synsepalum dulcificum aka miracle fruit [1] followed by a Ghost pepper. In theory, it should be able to block out most of the TRPV1 heat receptors as well. If only I did my thesis on this.

2 factor authentication is key here. The ubikey is a gold standard for business - no one should do serious business without it!

For everyone else, I think the new 2fa Google App approach is better. When you go to login, your Google App pushes a notification to your phone and you have to click on it. This raises the bar to doing a simultaneous login, which isn't impossible, but even if it weeds out a large number of attacks for now, it's worth it!
But it's also the default behavior if you sign on from a computer Google doesn't recognize, so it's not really strange to see the grey icon instead.
Maybe. I didn't see any figure in the article to define what "rich" means in this context. Different persons have different definitions. I don't think I'm technically part of the 1%, but I do make very good money, I just work hard for it and wasn't born with it.

Mathematician Here: Pitagora, who discovered music, studied that the lower sound we can Here clear is 27hz, and 432 is a multiple of 27. 27hz is A, and so it is 432hz.

432hz makes a lot of sense, other than that it is up to the director if the orchestra tune on 432 or 440, but since the vibration is so powerful, especially the resonance, it makes sense to use 432 to keep harmony, in my opinion.

Hmmm but it doesn't look so bad when you consider that 67% of poor college grads are at least 50-percentile in wealth, vs 49% of rich high school dropouts.

I'm sure is even better when you compare poor high school dropouts vs. poor college graduates, which is why a college degree may still be worth the money and the best pathway out of poverty, especially if you major in a high ROI field like STEM.

Unless you're spending all your waking hours maximally, the time savings of not-cooking versus cooking is not a well-considered trade off in the GPs post.

Just the transit time for a meal out is already going to cost them a great deal more productive time than cooking would. They don't mention Soylent or frozen meals, which are really the only viable way to spend your time more productively than either meal prep or eating out.
A valid point. It's the case with most human endeavors that involve trying something new, I don't think it is unique to Elon's companies.

It's UPnP [0]. It was always going to be UPnP. UPnP is the wrong set of trade offs and always was. And even making it 'off by default' won't solve the problem because the standard instructions for getting any multiplayer game or IoT gizmo to work are 'turn on UPnP'.

Not that this in any way absolves the OEM for the utter idiocy of including the telnet port in their forwards at all and the absolute negligence of having it active by default and 'secured' by a single or small combination of well known auth tuples.

But yeah, that's really what they did. Here's the section of Mirai's scanner.c that sets up the destination port. [1]

// Set up TCP header
tcph->dest = htons(23);
tcph->source = source_port;
tcph->doff = 5;
tcph->window = rand_next() & 0xffff;
tcph->syn = TRUE;

They really did just forward port 23. Tempting to call malfeasance but at best massive incompetence.

Thank you for your feedback. A search facility is definitely on our radar, but due to only having 200 photographs for our 'soft launch' we felt that it wouldn't be too helpful initially. We will be adding this functionality once we have reached 800 - 1,000 photographs and have indexed them all.

We'll be making our subscribers aware of each new feature as they are launched via our newsletter. Tag and colour searching is coming soon!

Note that in German the word is generally used in plural when talking about debt and singular when talking about guilt/blame.

"My fault" -> "Meine Schuld"

"My debt" -> "Meine Schulden"

I think both also behave as mass nouns, so there's rarely any ambiguity.
