None of these have hardrives. Which is nice in a way. But the "disk" space on all of them is pretty small.
SEEKING WORK

Location: Chicago
Remote: Yes
Email: t.lekkas@practalis.com

Technologies: Django/Python, some pandas/Numpy, some sklearn/ML.

Looking for contract/part-time (up to 30 hours/week) work. Technical experience is mainly in web development (building & deploying applications.)
They all have one thing in common, i7-7500U or slower. That is because the quad-core i7 7th gen processor won't be available until next year, and that's probably the reason Apple stayed at the 6th gen for this refresh.

In my list of requirements quad-core is definitely prioritized over which gen the processor is.

Just a counterpoint: I have short A's and a clipped cadence. I'm English and have never been to America. (Not that I'm from Bristol either!)

Becoming cold requires a flow of energy outwards. If you put a perfectly reflective energy shield above our atmosphere and about 2 miles down, we would not get cold. We would just wind up all dead at a uniform temperature.
Are you considering remote applicants outside from Europe?
Looks still to be an issue.
I've been working on a rollout of LE for our platform that I'm honestly now thinking about pausing -- a crowdfunding campaign is the opposite of confidence-inspiring in terms of longevity.

Any chance LE can make some official statement regarding their operating budget/burn? My strong preference would be to use them but I can't recommend transitioning to someone trying to make up single months of Opex by begging for donations.

Definitely no chance for EU candidates, right?
Agreed. Given consensus will take forever, I'd like to see the US or EU, somebody at lest, take the lead. Over time this will probably get worked into trade agreements anyway.

But if we wait 10 years, it'll be too late, and we'll have killed the internet or given into draconian measures to stop the problem - which is what none of us want.

Frankly, I don't even care if a given government has great security review - as long as they put a process in place it's a start that can be improved upon.
Neat. I like the exemption in principle, and the "Good Faith" condition will probably be the lynch pin that gets tested in court cases if they come up. What is Good Faith in security research is not necessarily - I don't think - a settled issue. Especially in light of the CFAA still on the books. I'd appreciate more and more clarity coming through (and augmentations to existing law to make them better) over time.

I wonder how the EFF will respond to this, because I recall one of their lawsuits (major?) is about DMCA exemption for security research (Plaintiff 1) but also violating DMCA in a for-profit-enterprise (Bunny).
The fact that modern games don't even bother to compress audio and are thus 50GB in size doesn't help eiter :)

I was disappointed with the new MacBook announcement, but also disappointed when looking at alternatives. I am looking for 32G RAM. I liked the author's short descriptions of the various Intel product lines.
I've been listening to Mirror's Edge OST while programming for weeks now, never thought to look for who created that sound track. Thanks!
I only wish they release the same notebook with 14inch. 12.5 is too small for my needs.

Perhaps too much for deep flow sessions but extremely stimulating for more inspirational, breaking-down-the-problem "aha" moments.

When it comes to `classical` music, keep in mind that the term encompasses hundreds of years of evolution and dozens of genres or utilities that the music was composed to serve. For our purposes, we may want to stick to "salon" style solo or small ensemble compositions which were made by the masters with the express purpose of stimulating the logical and emotional mind. Church music and large symphonies for example are a completely different animal, but get unfortunately rolled in under this catch-all term.

> if a small theoretical being sat at the door between the hot and cold rooms and only let through particles traveling at a certain speed. This theoretical imp is called "Maxwell's demon."

Maxwell's demon is considered a slight of hand because it requires energy to perform its task. But if a passive energy-free equivalent can be found with a novel quantum substrate then any liquid could be separated into hot and cold pools. I am highly sceptical of such a claim. The difference in temperature between these hypothetical pools would likely be too small to create any useful energy.

On the one hand, I'm not a fan of the two party system, I've done tons of work on that and spent tons of time trying to find solutions that may actually take hold before I die.

As for "what makes me qualified"....well, I'm a citizen in a democracy, and therefore my opinion counts. I'm glad I don't have to make those tough life and death decisions directly, but I am glad someone is doing it and they don't have a "burn it all down" attitude, nor do they have such a black and white view of morality that they are unable to do the best thing for us.

All their software is open source. You can run both the client and the CA server on your own.

But your CA server won't be able to sign any certificates that will be recognized by Mozilla, Google, Microsoft, etc. It takes time, energy, and expertise to be a CA authority that is trusted by those organizations.

I think that trying to scrimp and save is not worth the relatively small amount of money saved for something like this. We've seen over and over again that so-called "critical" open source projects cannot afford to operate that way.

>Perhaps reasonably priced wildcard and/or EV certs, while leaving regular certs at the "free" price level?

IDK, wildcard certs encourage really bad practices, and I don't see the LE team liking the idea of issuing them.

EV certs means a significant increase in costs to actually go through the processes required (audits, etc) so that browsers will accept them, and then the increased costs of doing due diligence when issuing certs. Unless they want to grow in that direction, it seems like a poor business choice.

Yes, it means they run the risk of going insolvent; despite the fanfare, and the pace at which they have moved themselves into a critical niche on the web, they are still an open source project, and are supported by sponsorships and donations.

I expect that there are some significant players that would invest to keep them around, but it can be hard to continue to making an impact when you subsist off of crumbs.

US cursive looks rather different from the cursive taught in the rest of the world; its dissimilarities with printed words makes it more of a specialized task to read and write. It's much more decorative than fast, IMO.

For example: US cursive 'Q' looks like the number 2. 'Z' is the number 2 with another loop below the line. 'F' and 'T' look like letters you'd see in an illustrated manuscript as the leading letter.

This is a no-brainer for any LetsEncrypt user:

- Take the amount you paid for certificates last year
- Divide by any number, let's say 10
- Donate that amount to LetsEncrypt, and continue to get free certificates all year!

I agree with some commenters that it would be great to see LetsEncrypt bolster their revenue with reasonably-priced offerings such as wildcards and EVs. But you can't argue with the progress they've made so far. If there is enough community demand, I'm sure they'll get there.

Though their stats page[0] appears to be broken, last I heard they had surpassed 5 million certificates. To meet their current funding goal of $200k for a month, that equates to $0.04 per certificate per month, or $0.48 per certificate per year!

EDIT: Their stats page is back. Looks like they have reached 10 million certificates. So halve the above numbers!

The only song I can do this with is "My Favourite Game" by the Cardigans. Spent too much time as a kid playing long races on Gran Turismo 2, and it was always my favorite track.

I think it's because there are really only about 2-3 parts to the song. It doesn't really build up or down... it's a bit flat. And given that it's flat, you almost don't notice when it loops.

On the one hand I like new free features, especially the search. On the other hand Instapaper got acquired by Pinterest (http://blog.instapaper.com/post/149374303661) and if they no longer make money from premium subscriptions and the service is ads-free, then how will they generate revenue? Selling publishers premium spots in my reading queue?
I think a cpu can compress data (provided it's in memory) orders of magnitude faster than it can write to disk. Now that I think about it though, the context would be necessary to compress well, so maybe you would need to read surrounding data.
