It does sound like bank transfers - either SWIFT or Faster Payments. If it's a backend attack they could well have bypassed all the usual checks, including checking for positive balance & overdraft limits.
Looks like the editor missed a big set of repetitions in the middle of the article:

> But at the same time, consumers who enjoy access to Internet services are concerned about protecting their privacy. As a result, the best way to give consumers what they want is to strike an appropriate balance between which uses of personal information to permit and which ones to restrict.

> The FCC’s approach abandons this nuanced perspective in favor of an approach that prohibits practices on which online companies frequently rely, such as making product recommendations based on past browsing and purchase history.

The FCC’s approach abandons this nuanced perspective in favor of an approach that prohibits practices on which online companies frequently rely, such as making product recommendations based on past browsing and purchase history.

To me, this suggests that this is "native advertising", effectively, that was emailed over and rushed out.

Doesn't sound so amazing to me (or is just very low density compared to what's typically done with the current Xeon lineup).
It was, they called it IRC.

Sounds like the bank got breached, not the customer.
Just to be pedantic, it is "brakes" for slowing things down, and "breaks" for ruining or damaging something.
Alternative alternative hypothesis: they're correct, because the move towards renewable energy and electrified transportation is more than offset by increased oil consumption caused by economic growth in poor countries.
I agree. When I first starting trying to use perl 6 (after it was fully released) and had questions, most of the replies to those questions I found were from 10 years ago, when the answer was "XYZ... but it's not finished yet". The ecosystem has 15 years of outdated documentation still floating around, and they need to organize the current documentation in a way that's helpful to new developers.
I had the same problem with my jit, which also generated stack frames not aligned to 16-byte. My test program crashed on an SSE instruction in the Rust standard library (I dont' recall if this bug only occured in release mode, may have been already compiled code). I was pretty proud when I fixed this. Although I have to admit that after finding out that the accessed address was actually valid, I was already supposing that alignment was a problem. Fixing it was then straightforward since it was my own toy compiler.
The price range seems a bit low for 'named' recommendations. Not that you can't get a good chair at that price point, just that you probably won't get a famous one.
> One project I'd love to see is to get a bunch of folks together to do some proper layout-by-hand on code -- Given 100% control over typography, how would you format it to maximize readability, minimize distraction, highlight relevant contextual knowledge, etc? And then work to push tools in a direction that they support configuration to allow for said tasks.

I've had a similar thought for several years now. Want to hash out some ideas? You can contact at my site wanderingstan.com or on twitter @wanderingstan.
There is indeed a counter, with the shortcomings you mentioned.
It's more than that.

Yes, every other language has flaws on Unicode handling. But those flaws persist exactly because they are not important.

It's been I long time I don't write a "Unicode handling" application, yet the only environment where I ever got problems with it on the last decade was .Net. And it was a very small problem, worked around in less time than I've lost on this HN page.
Rule of thumb is about half that of gas at current prices assuming you're doing a mix of night and day charging. Perhaps up to 1/3rd if you do exclusively night charging with reduced rates, assuming your local electric utility offers reduced pricing.

So maybe $1,200 saved annually compared to gas for average use.
Perl has been trumped by Python. Perl would continue to fade into the sunset through attrition.
They don't use Linux container, they use hypervisor-based container (see: github.com/hyperhq/hyperd). Therefore it is VM-level isolation.

You do, and xiwi (X11 in a window) is almost magic in letting me spawn a proper terminal emulator integrated with ChromeOS's window manager (Aura?).

...but it feels like a bit of a hack. I have to have the laptop in dev mode and there's a slight fear that an automatic update might prevent the chroot from working, or that my stateful downloads directory might disappear.

My thought was that ChromeOS is kinda where OS X 10.0 was... a great UI on top of a great base that just works. That's what drove many of us to Apple when we got bored of re-configuring linux, it's what made many of us recommend Apple to friends/family.... Apple have dropped the ball, Google is in a pretty good place to pick it up.
This was your very first comment:

>"So why don't you? I get that if everyone did that, it wouldn't work, but you aren't everyone. You're just you."

I fail to see how "You're telling me that it's okay to stay at home and be lazy because, why not, it's just you right?" misrepresents that statement at all.

>"I DISAGREE with staying home and doing nothing, living off welfare. Amazing. I DISAGREE with that, yet you believed I completely AGREED with it because your thinking is so primitive."

And where in the world did you ever imply that you disagreed with that? Everything you've said so far advocated for this position for at least OP. If you wanted to have a discussion about what's right or wrong about this situation as it pertains to other people, if not society at large, then maybe you should have done that instead of your whole "[b]oo hoo, cry me a river" line. If you're so capable of understanding other peoples way of thinking then perhaps you could have understood why I would not catch on to your supposed Devil's Advocate position. You don't know a thing about me.
This is exactly the service I've been looking for: a fast, cheap, and easy docker deployment service for my personal projects. It'll be interesting to see this grow, and more importantly, see how they handle security and privacy.
Teslas Will No Longer Come with Free Unlimited Supercharging After 2016
I guess you could script a lot of it to happen automagically for a subset of applications.
Remember though that in most states Driving is not a "right" (like free speech) and can be taken away by the government and they do so with legal standards much lower than other crimes (see: Traffic court)
I hate that everyone marketing this as x $ but actually charge x $ + really_expensive_shipping $
Some explanation of what it does and how it works would probably be useful, too. Maybe add an explanatory comment after the submission hits the |new| page.
Why are they silly though? Don't you need them to specify that an operation is in fact async and handle it accordingly? Or in your solution (something about locking?) is that not necessary because everything is safe? How does that work out though? How do I say "No computer, wait for this before we do that"?
Onerous? Or modest?

Those poor, poor ISPs. How could they ever abuse our info again? Oh wait, they'll still be able to, because for one, they can still COLLECT all of our info, they just may get more slaps on the wrists and "huge" record-breaking $2 million fines, when they misuse that data and break these new rules.

http://boston.cbslocal.com/2016/10/11/comcast-fine-mischargi...

Also FCC's new rules exempt law enforcement, so AT&T can still make money selling all of that collected data to law enforcement and the NSA for profit, just as they have in the past.

http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2016/10/25/at-t-is-spy...

But yeah, other than that, what will the ISPs ever do to not go bankrupt? (I mean other than charging for their basic services at monopoly prices).
It could have been so great, but wasn't meant to be. I got exited for a moment, and then my hopes were dashed. 49RMB for a zero is like cereal money. It's the price of 490g Kellogs Fruit Muesli on Taobao. There had to be a catch. But at least I didn't spend 128RMB on a SBC that doesn't work, then 8 hours on trying to make it run.

Edit: Having looked checked for authorized resellers of Raspberry Pis in China, it just got more confusing.

What happened to EGOMAN, which the Raspberry Pi foundation partnered up in 2013 to produce Raspberry Pis? They only have the first model red pi, and they have stopped advertising them. They make waterproof heartrate monitors now.

Seed studio is one of 2 authorized resellers of element14 in China. They're based in Shenzhen. They sell in JPY, but not RMB. How does that work?

The only authorized reseller that actually sells on taobao is Hangzhou Junroc Electronic Technology co ltd. They sell Model 3 B's for 195RMB + 10RMB shipping. Why do Element14 and RS China charge 260RMB? How do they sell these for cheaper than their distributor? Overhead? Aren't they made here?

How does the ODROID2 work? It's 40USD, or 52,800 won in Korea. 52,800 won is 46USD. Granted, there's 16$ shipping for international orders.

Nothing makes sense to me anymore.
Scrypt seems to be performing better in the browser because of 32 bit operations. Argon2 in browser was slow in my tests.
I certainly agree that we should be trying new things. Only good things can come of that.

But I think it's very important to acknowledge that these "problems" with games are not born out of laziness, lack of creativity, or an inability to see outside the cultural in-group. Games boil everything down to easily countable abstractions, because games are, at their heart, nothing but systems of rules. Your health meter is an abstracted version of your physical well-being. Objectives are abstracted goal setting and cause-and-effect. Even if the game doesn't show you these numbers, it is still using them under the hood. What's the alternative? A deep, nuanced simulation? That'd be great, but it's well beyond the scope and means of the vast majority of developers.

Why do so many games include death? Because it's the only universally accepted fail state. It is simply impossible for 99% of games to provide anything more meaningful than that, because doing so involves exponentially more complexity, storytelling, and asset development. The best most can do is just cover the death up with new coat of paint (a la Braid).

Why have a fail state at all? Because the interactive nature of the medium loses a lot of its weight when your choices/actions don't seem to matter, and simulating anything other than simple failure is, once again, exponentially more difficult and expensive.

It is tragic that there is a certain vocal group that rejects alternative types of games like Dear Esther. I won't apologize for them. However, the games that are "mainstream"—and the games that are not—are not selected by some game industry cabal. The easily consumed, easily understood games sell so much more than the niche stuff precisely because more people are interested in that kind of thing.

Although the point of the article is that we need to think of different audiences (which is hard to disagree with), my main takeaway was that society is full of judgmental elitists who love to denigrate things they don't understand. In particular, the author's cousin seems like a very unpleasant person. Although the story of her encounter with Lydia is superficially touching, it's hardly a revelation, and we've all heard these stories before: friend/relative hates video games, finally plays one, is brought to emotional tears, yadda yadda. Finding a good game is roughly as difficult as finding a good book; the culture is not to blame for people's ignorance.

(As an aside, the true tragedy is that the cousin's experience had a lot more to do with her ignorance than with Skyrim its. Avoiding video games for your entire life practically guarantees that you'll be blown away the first time you find one you like, because the game is still "magic" to you. The magic wears off very quickly, however, and after that the meaningful experiences are much more rare. If you continue playing games, you find yourself wanting more than just some scripted dialogue, and that's why games so frequently feature the challenges and spectacles that the author says turn the non-gamers away.)
I'd rather think different[ly].
That's actually really nice. I mean a central dependency file would still maybe be good for security updates and so on, but I wonder why multiple version support is still so uncommon among ecosystems.

Hi Palant,
I found your app in the comment today. So yes, LessPass was developed it independently.

And yes we are working in a way to change the number of rounds of PBKDF2. https://github.com/lesspass/lesspass/issues/38

API already evolve (https://github.com/lesspass/core/commit/70bebd5e5bcd0c9a32ac...), we are updating the user interface.
To me, it's mostly the presence of all new CS inventions in core. Like you don't need any damn libraries to paralellize stuff, just use `start` block or a `supply`. If you write accounting software, you'll appreciate built-in rationals so that 0.1 + 0.2 == 0.3, unlike so many other languages. Laziness is present in many things like lazy exceptions, string generation, and sequences: say (3, 9 … ∞)[^20] does not hang and produces (3 9 15 21 27 33 39 45 51 57 63 69 75 81 87 93 99 105 111 117), despite being an infinite sequence.

You also have grammars, more readable regex language, and superb object model. On a more advanced spectrum, with grammars and slangs, you can craft your own mini-languages for a specific domain where they would fit better; there's a nice little presentation by Damian Conway where he crafts an operator for quantum mechanical math that looks and functions just like the proper mathematical symbol functions: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nq2HkAYbG5o

As for the langs you mentioned: I find a lot of similarities between Rust and Perl 6, although in some areas it seems Perl 6 folks did more thinking (like the .match stuff). They are however in different domains, Rust being a systems language; but you can use Rust libraries in Perl 6 via NativeCall if you compile them for C calling convention.

Perl 6 smokes Ruby and Python with its asynch/parallel/conc. support and more advanced object model.

As far as Unicode support goes, only Swift comes close to Perl 6; try to uppercase "ß" in Ruby, for example. Even if you to claim you only write software for English-speaking customers, you still have to deal with weird customer names for example.

For parameters you mention, many people notice they have to write fewer code in Perl 6. Personally, I found when writing equivalent code as Perl 5, my Perl 6 versions were TWICE as short. And I don't mean you golf your program to anything unreadable, but rather the provided primitives are... well, modern... so I don't have to reinvent them with more basic primitives provided by older langs.

What you'll find is performance is a bit crappy right now. Perl 6's stable got released less than a year ago so there's still a ton of work left to do in bugfixing and optimizations. I think that's what a lot of folks fail to realize that Perl 6 is a brand new baby language so trying to compare its performance to Python (25 years of work) or Ruby (21 years of work) or ES6 (tons of corporate interest) is a bit unrealistic at this moment in time.

In conclusion, one can list dozens of benefits, but I think at the end of the day, it'll all come down to which language better fits your brain and if you participate in a community, which community feels more like the folks of your kind. So far, anyone who I saw try the language say they loved it. The performance can use an improvement and that's what the core devs are working on. So, I think the steam is being gathered.
The financial hit needn't be disastrous. One would have thought Tesco had insurance!

Tesco's strategic response will be more about reputation, branding and customer relationships than about the direct profits they earn from their financial services.

I would be surprised if Her Majesty's Government started micromanaging security (unless there was political pressure to do so). That's not their style. Much better to require that banks, and their customers, are adequately insured against this kind of fraud, and then let the invisible hand decide the optimum level of security.

How would one launder so much stolen bank account credit so quickly? It depends on whether you need to remain anonymous or not. If, say, you're an established Russian gangster with an established network of ATM withdrawal agents, it's relatively straightforward. Sure, some of the agents will get caught, but that's their problem, not yours.

On the other hand, if you're within reach of British justice, I guess we're talking about Bitcoins. Can the scammers move their stolen cash to a Bitcoin market that's large enough and liquid enough to swallow that much transaction volume before the cash is frozen? I've no idea.

If I was a legislator, I would look for ways to attack bitcoin laundering / tumbling. Bitcoin transactions are anonymous, but they are also public. It's always possible to look at the Bitcoins in your wallet and see if they are in any way tainted by association with known dirty money.
That pretty much never happens in hosting. Because CPU cores are the more limited resource on these machines, you'd end up being charged the same if you opted for less RAM since they wouldn't be able to put too many other customers on the same box.
I notice your statistics are about things like "buys games more often" and "plays games and identifies as gamers (conjunction fallacy?).

Those are things that videogame publishers care about a lot, I suppose, because they have to do with sales and branding.

But they have nothing to do with the parent comment's assertion about the demography of videogamers as a whole. Poor minorities may just be playing less profitable games.
> Charging with normal smartphone battery packs is now possible.

I was going to rebut this statement as useless (my instincts were telling me that it should be under 10% of the total built-in battery), then I did the math. Your typical high capacity charging pack providing 15,000 mAh actually has almost double the capacity of a built in battery for the 13" MBP.

15,000 mAh * 5V / 1000 = 75 watt-hours

Compared to ~50 watt-hours for the MBP

I'll say that again. A sub $50 battery pack provides almost double the battery life of the one built into a $1,500 laptop.

Always good news to see progress in Brewland. I personally do not like having it installed in /usr/local and have ensured it never is on my installation, but I've not had the chance to ever discuss with one of their team why they do it and what things may possibly explode by not having Brew installed to /usr/local
Not true, every app on Google Play goes through review. I'm not sure about Chrome store, but I presume it may also likely see review for every app.

Umm, can tesla look around and identify parking spots it can take? That itself seems like an impossible problem based on current computer vision capability.

Then what about reading signs on the parking lot, if it parks on a reserved or handicapped spot?

Tesla's self park at home (forgot what they called it) is basically meant to just drive straight into a garage. That's not going to do that job.
Wow. 1000 miles isn't much at all.

And the cost will now be "less than a tank of gas", but how much less? From the calculations I saw, the free charging played a big part in justifying the upfront cost.
Richard Karp: (Berkeley, unsure, P!=NP) My intuitive belief is that P is unequal to NP,
but the only supporting arguments I can offer are the failure of all efforts to place specific
NP-complete problems in P by constructing polynomial-time algorithms.

I believe that the traditional proof techniques will not suffice. Something entirely novel will
be required.

My hunch is that the problem will be solved by a young researcher who is not encumbered
by too much conventional wisdom about how to attack the problem.
Whatever reason it is, people don't do that often. They also don't write those often in Ruby, Java, C, and many other languages.

Maybe a better question is: what makes 3000 lines single-function code so prevalent in Perl?

There's something to say about Perl 5 making function arguments difficult. But I don't think it ends there, because other languages attract the same kind of code.
I believe it is an artistic mistake to target an audience in the way the author is intending with her studio. She mentions, "women aren't too unpredictable to study" and "what women like", as though what she learned from the "white male" centric industry is how to pander to a market for profit.
Looks like the market cap for US traded coal companies is only $4 billion[1]. Maybe a US multi-billionare could buy them out as a philanthropic act and reduce mining to only that needed for chemical stock.

There are lots of minor changes, but nothing major IMHO. The reason for bumping the minor version are a couple of breaking changes:

- Disable SHA-1 checksum support in formulae
- Disable running Homebrew as the root user (e.g. sudo brew)
- Bottles with _or_later tags no longer use _or_later in their filenames so the existing bottle can be reused
Stupidest thing I've ever seen.
