I just moved into a suburban neighborhood. On the surface, in real life, this place seems utterly sterile and devoid of life. But, of course, it is actually filled with life. The design of suburban American neighborhoods make it incredibly difficult to connect people who live just down the street from you.

But I signed up for Nextdoor and there is tons of connection happening between neighbors. There are the obligatory complaints about homeless, but people are also swapping goods, hiring each other, warning about burglars, etc. I have a hard time imagining how all of this happens in a place like this without a social network.
Best i recall, NASA wanted liquid boosters etc, but congress nixed it for pork barrel reasons.
The experience of unowned land and resources on Earth are quite terrible, so I hope for the opposite.

I'm more worried about kinetic energy than density in this scenario, but younre certainly right that this is low frequency anyway
I agree that there should be an opt-out option (other than not installing GFE, tho considering that GFE has always phoned home I don't know if that is that important), yes in an ideal world people should opt-in, the problem is that almost no one does.

Anyone who ever worked on a crash report system knows that opt-in rates are below 10% even for corporate clients.
Heck if you are lucky you get single digit % figures on "send this report" even if the checkbox is ticked by default, the vast majority of people just hit cancel.

The stats are actually pretty darn interesting, especially for image quality vs fps I had a chance to speak to a few reps from NVIDIA once and they told me that as much as PC players bitch and moan about 60fps vsync the vast majority of them would push settings at the expense of smooth(er) framerates even if they have no to very little effect on image quality.
I can only imagine the opportunities that arise for Cialis and Viagra "marketers".
I just find it hard to think about playing with every set of magic cards. With booster draft, there are only a few hundred cards that you even have to worry about.

Another unlisted benefit of draft vs. pauper is that almost any store selling Magic cards will have a weekly draft.

First, I would say you need to understand your own learning style and what methods work for you.
For me, practical beats theoretical any day. Everything I've become good at, I almost always had tried learning it from reading books or tutorials online, would get bored and give up.
It wasn't until I needed to use the tool to get some greater purpose, then I could use the draw of having that tool solve one of my needs, and had a reason to not get lost in the details until I needed them.
So read up on the general types of problems they're commonly used for, and get an understanding of what they might be able to do, and if something sounds like it could help towards solving a problem, go after it.

Also, people like to shame you when you're learning, as if using "training wheels" will keep you an intellectual cripple.
I love training wheels. They get me productive enough to keep me interested, and I can always dig in deeper when I want to/have time, etc.
But don't be afraid of just getting the job done. Then go back, learn from your mistakes, and iterate.

Meanwhile, you're building real experience, familiarity with solving real problems, and learning the internals of the tools you're using, while the people arguing over the right editor to use, the right framework, the right generator, toolkit, bridge, etc, are all still posting on medium about how some new programming language/paradigm will solve all of our woes.

At the end of the day, whatever helps you understand it better, go for it, no matter all of the "should"s and "shouldn't"s people will try to burden you with.
Dapps for Beginners – Setting up your development environment
Anecdotally I have heard that there are various machinations like shell/holding companies and partnerships which let you functionally prevent the commercial property tax from changing and is very common because the incentives are so large.
Just imagine Sonic the Hedgehog on this sucker!
I have a hypothesis about how most people seemingly did their greatest work when they were young: most of the very famous people we know of on average is several generations before - when you think of theoretical physicists you think of Einstein, Feynman, Higgs etc. . They started their careers a lot earlier than us now, their institutions were less crufty, the edge of the field, any field, is a lot closer. I'm willing to bet that on average the current generation would do their best work later in life. It's as big as the difference between how Baby boomers and Millennials starts their careers.

That said, experimental physicists and biologists have always done their best works later in life (mid 40s last time I read). Elon Musk's best work should still be ahead of him if he doesn't flop. And Jobs's best work (turning Apple into the monster it is today) wasn't done in his youth either.
Can it be avoided using the "advanced" option in the setup wizard and deselect everything but the graphics driver (,the physics engine and the sound driver)?

Which only happened because of how the court would have likely responded. If a judge would have thrown out the case in 5 minutes then there would have been no settlement.
For folks with less time, I really enjoyed the "Acquired" podcast's walkthrough of this same acquisition step by step. They used this same SEC filing as a source, I believe.

LOL. Pop-science today!

More than a half of the text are references to another "studies" to convey the fundamental idea, which every biology student should know after the first semester - emotions has been evolved for a purpose - they are signals between sub-systems, so, they are here "by-design", and should not be ignored or suppressed. An emotion is a signal that an action is needed. Actions, however, could (and should) be suppressed, not emotions.

Another fundamental idea is that any self-delusion, including so-called "positive attitude" would sooner or later (but inevitable) lead to a dissonance due to increasing of the distance from reality (an error). This idea has been popularized by the Buddha ("to see things as they are") and formalized by AI theorists - the method of minimizing a squared error (a distance between an expectation and an actual fact) is exactly this.

How much they earn, these "scientists" (a professor of marketing!) who are unaware of the fundamental principles of biological system organization?

I wonder if VR could play a part on this? My grandfather had a terrible brain tumor that didn't allow him to walk, although he was mentally fine. I could imagine virtual 'living rooms' where my grandfather could've interacted with other people etc.
That has other issues though. Last I checked you're unable to remove contacts from your contact list. I'm not kidding.

You can 'block' people, but simply removing them? Nope.

Why do I care? Because at one point the 'upload all contacts to Wire to help you find them on Wire' wasn't optional (I understand it is now) and now I'm stuck with entries on my contact list that I just don't care about. Very weird..
Actually it's pretty awesome. Whenever I work in Europe for an extended period of time I stay in one of those 5-floor buildings within walking or biking distance of the office (thanks Airbnb). It takes commuting from stressful and makes it relaxing, even when it's around 5 degrees Celsius, raining and with heavy winds.
Proper Campaign Tagging for Google Analytics
When you use the Google URL Builder tool (https://ga-dev-tools.appspot.com/campaign-url-builder/), you often end up with different tags, e.g. Facebook, facebook, facebook.com, etc., for the same campaign source.

I created a tool that properly aggregates data in the Google Analytics campaign reports (Acquisition > All Traffic > Source/Medium) and offer it from today as a public tool that anyone can use for free:

I’m curios about your opinion on it? Is it useful for you, too? Do you miss any further functionality?

Thanks so much!
Sealed league. Get a group of people, everyone buys 10 packs for $26, you get to open six of them and you play. Every two weeks you open another pack. Ends up taking 10 weeks and nobody spends more than $26, maybe a little more if you buy card sleeves, iPhone apps to track life, or whatever.

What makes it fun is that you're playing against people with the same size card pool as you. Draft is cheaper ($7.80) but it's over and done in a few hours.
Something only becomes a Problem for me if I have failed to solve it. So, by definition, my problems are things I'm probably worse at solving than other people.
But you're a programmer, so you must manage no? I've actually thought about the e-ink display. I would immediately buy a very simple, lightweight e-ink laptop that allows me to do simple tasks.
If a company makes you an offer early in the process, how long are they typically willing to wait (while you interview with the other dozen companies)? Esp if you save the ideal companies for later in the process.
The 480 is really competitive right now, especially when you can get one for ~$150 with discounts on sale in the last couple weeks.

Hopefully Zen can complete at least at the $200 price point with Intel.

I don't think the argument here was about rail, it was about moving housing closer to jobs so human-powered transit (i.e. biking, walking, skateboarding etc) becomes viable for more people.
It can't, Nouveau is not developed by Nvidia.
> Orbit is much more expensive than reentry and landing

The asteroid already has to be going slowly enough to avoid burning up in the atmosphere, and circularizing at HEO is much cheaper than circularizing near LEO. You also probably don't want to crash anything of this size into the earth.
>the Irish and Italian governments were a lot more corrupt

You're going to have to provide some numbers. I don't think that you understand what's going on here.

Although, I should point out that you have no objection to discussing the Irish government in 1916. If I want to argue like you, I could try to say that proves you're a moron, but maybe it's okay to be a little less than computer-level specificity while discussing the general governance of those areas. The Austro-Hungarian Empire and the British Empire were among the world's largest economies. Italy was the first country to use airplanes in warfare.

I didn't want to get into this side of the argument because it's unsavory and frankly insulting to even consider but the point is that acknowledgment of doubt is necessary for intellectual honesty in any issue this complex. The existence of certainty among people hoping for "open borders" is likely a result of wishful thinking.

>You're clearly a crackpot who doesn't know what he's talking about.

No, I'm explaining flaws in an argument which is touted as airtight and used by a lot of arrogant bullies such as yourself to shut down dissent on a controversial issue, and you're trolling. You have contributed nothing but insults because you don't have a real argument; you just try to catch mistakes (but you didn't catch any) and call people dumb.

So you're the crackpot, and get bent.
Unfortunately, that's a bit of spin in the article. I have clipped the relevant part of the route network (http://imgur.com/a/OR4Ee) and the U55 (brown) connects Main Station (Hauptbahnhof) to Brandenburg Gate where it meets the main north - south light railway (dark green, pink). For reasons, this line doesn't have the best connectivity to Main Station, switching lines at Friedrichstraße is a chore, and U55 will be welcome for passengers of the north - south line.

In a couple of years, U55 will also connect to U2 and make it easier from passengers from some eastern districts to reach Main Station. It also will be the tourist line, connecting a lot of tourist sights in central Berlin.

There's a bit of background about the future gap closure here: http://www.projekt-u5.de/en/
That's a clever definition for "problem", but it's not how I would use the word in context. I would consider "problem" to include things which I have not yet attempted to solve, and I think most people would define it similarly.
Do you also blame every police officer for failing to stop every murder, due to the police not being at the exact right place at the exact right time, knowing exactly what is about to happen, who is going to be the murderer, who is going to be the murdered, and the technique/weapon that is used to commit the crime? Because based on your reasoning, you should.

Edited to add:

The reason this argument bothers me so is that I'm not some great big fanboy of NORAD. But rather because the actual reasoning that goes behind blaming NORAD seems rather poor and includes a lack of understanding in regards to how we know things. If we then use hindsight to judge, we must be careful about the knowledge we have now, and our past and present assumptions. Sometimes these judgeents can make sense, sometime they don't. This is one of those cases.

9/11 was such a vastly different event in the history of the US, it seems quite unfair to blame NORAD for not predicting how things turned out. An argument that blames NORAD (imo) seems to blame NORAD because they were not omniscience and omnipotent.

We're looking back at a historical event where we have an incredible amount of information about exactly what happened. How could we assume that NORAD would have planes flying to cover NYC and Washington DC, two very important cities in the US. Do we also know exactly what their targets in those two large cities are going to be? That's a rather ridiculous argument.

This is especially true, because almost no one had used Airliners as guided missiles before. (And the reason that Flight 93 is so special, it shows that once the passengers were made aware of how the plane was no longer a traditional hijacking, they may have forced the terrorists to crash the plane without greater casualties.)

How do you stop these events? Let's assume that we know the hijackers were going to target those two cities, (and those 3 buildings) but couldn't the hijackers have targeted two other cities that didn't have air cover (and again, the fighters had de facto permission to shoot down hijacked civilian airliners). Do we give air cover to every minor city in the entire US? Do we put SAM sites in every US downtown? Let's just militarize the entire US, it wouldn't be the first time we had "Fortress America."

We can't always look back at an event knowing what we know now and judge it based on our knowledge at this moment versus knowledge at that moment. (This could quickly descend into a philosophical argument about knowledge, epistemology, etc., but I'm not going there.) But I will say that when analyzing things such as this, we have to be careful about our own assumptions and how we have learned the things we know, and then apply those to a historical event.

And that's all I'll say about that.

Real issue here though is it doesn't seem like they have an opt out option.
Ask HN: I've been used to LibreSignal on CyanogenMod, what can I replace it by?
I use CyanogenMod on my cell phone so I don't have the Google piece of code required by the Signal app, neither can I download it on Android Market.

I've heared about own kernel compilation, why not but I'd prefer a more stable solution -- if I use CyanogenMod, wouldn't have I to recompile it on my own for each and single release?

Do you know about any well-crafted security app which handle both unsecured SMS and a secure protocol?
I'm not too familiar with the Signal Protocol so I might be mistaken. But a Signal user always has "pre-keys" (a 100 per devices I think) published online on the Signal server.

The first time you want to message that user, but that user is not online, you cannot do an interactive key exchange (and thus, no forward secrecy). Their work around is to have these pre-keys that can only be used once.

So you get one of that pre-key, and you do some sort of Diffie-Hellman handshake that they call X3DH.

Now does all this really matter? Probably at this point, you have not verified the public key of your friend out of band, otherwise he would have gave you one of these pre-keys himself. So the end-to-end encryption could be broken at this point (but you could still later realize what happened).
I'm surprised by the backlash against telemetry on HN. How else are you supposed to improve reliability of software used on tens of millions of devices with an ear infinite number of hardware and software permutations?
> On days like this I dream of a world in which every citizen has a key pair assigned by the government

I understand and fully sympathize with the spirit of this idea, but it is very important to understand that it cannot be the government who assigns a key pair. It has to be you who generates the key pair, and registers the public key -- and only the public key -- with the government. And the registration process has to be such that no one can register a key that they have generated on your behalf. Getting such a process to really work can be quite tricky, even trickier than conducting an election the old fashioned way.
That everyone's time get wasted. You don't have a disadvantage when you decide to actually vote.

Sounds like Bolivia has some state resource monopolies and a medium-sized welfare budget. Hardly what I'd call "socialist". Venezuela is a real socialist planned economy.

It's both. You won't starve no matter how economically illiterate or malicious your government is if you don't let them set the prices of food and control trade.

NVIDIA's own linux drivers are excellent, they are considerably better than AMD's ones (reversal from the days of ATI), but they are closed source.

NVIDIA released Linux drivers hand in hand with their Windows based ones, you get at least one update every month.

So while it's true that you can't have a completely open source driver for NVIDIA you do have excellent Linux drivers.

On the compute side NVIDIA's support for Linux is also unmatched, in fact for many things CUDA actually works better on Linux than on Windows.
It's just the culture of the time period (late 1960s.) I remember watching some automotive repair videos from roughly the same era, and they would be just as outrageous today.

On the other hand, it definitely makes things memorable.
Just curious, is it normal for SEC filing to document the M&A negotiation process like this one?
And yet, people do.
Another area for growth is multipurpose strip malls. Shops on the first floor, housing on one or two additional floors.
Agreed. I think Wizards made the right call for Standard in terms of attracting and retaining new players. It's good to hear from another person who got in around Ice Age (same here) and enjoyed the complexities of that era of Magic deck building. I think Magic appealed to the "mad inventor" side of my personality, which is why I miss the more diverse possibilities (hard control & combo) that used to exist in Standard. And I remember the Enchantress combo deck! Good stuff!
In an analysis published in Science that I read, the biggest driver was development cost. SRBs, in fact, the kludge of the big tank, were all done to minimize that, while drastically driving up operational costs, which, of course, were several elections down the road and sort of hidden/not entirely undesired for what had become almost entirely a public works program.

By the same token, I heard first hand from the guy who developed the reentry vehicle that the crazy scheme of Apollo which left us with no operational hardware off the earth was done because it spent "a billion" (8 billion in 2016 dollars) more in Texas, where LBJ just happened to hail from, and back then the race to the moon project was explicitly hailed as a way to spend money in the South and increase its tech know-how.
There is, don't install Geforce Experience, GFE has always sent some data to NVIDIA now they are also collecting driver telemetry.

GFE requires a separate installation and for you to signup and login.

This isn't a service required for you to get GPU drivers.

The only thing you lose is NVIDIA's screen capture software and game optimization (and some deals sometimes).

You can still use your card to the fullest without it.

Source: I have the latest drivers and don't have GFE, the telemetry software is part of the update core which is currently installed with GFE.
There are no fully open OS builds that are Android.

I played this game years ago and enjoyed it.

To make my life more interesting, I tried making a bot to play a game. I noticed the game ignores wrong keystrokes and there is no penalty.

So my bot cyclically types the letters A through Z at a few hundred keys per second. It really does the trick!
This sounds nice and all but how long will it take for these to turn in to a bar or cafe or whatever, designed exclusively to extract money from participants?
Unlikely to happen without major business motivation/incentives to do so. Right now outside that small community, nobody really cares if it's open source or not as long as it works well and it does.
Google error-prone is a good alternative to FindBugs:

https://github.com/google/error-prone

http://errorprone.info/bugpatterns

Pros:

* has faster cycle times and integrates into compilation workflow
* emits fewer false positives
* active maintainers fix issues
* releases several times per year

Cons:

* FindBugs has a greater breadth of checks
* current error-prone releases only work with Java 8
