I dunno, I don't think it's that simple. For one, the "respect your values" arguments goes both ways: she values a diamond, he doesn't. If she insists on a diamond, she's not respecting his values. If he insists on no diamond, he's not respecting hers.

It's very easy to justify going the no-diamond route, sure. From a financial point of view, it's just a bad idea. Some say the finances aren't the point, so you can turn to ethical arguments (diamonds are bloody business). You can't really lose the no-diamond argument; it's too easy to make.

Still, it's awfully convenient for the guy to be the one making the argument against buying an expensive ring. This doesn't make the arguments wrong, but depending on the relationship, the girl might suspect that the guy is making those arguments, not out of financial responsibility or morality, but out of apathy or simply being cheap. The guy might be making sound arguments, but his ulterior motive might still be problematic, and the girl might be taking issue with that. Also, there is a whole lot of meaning (artificial, but real just the same) that goes into the rituals of marriage, and you can't just dismiss all of that with some textbook argument about diamond cartels.

The relationship isn't doomed in this case; the couple can grow past it, and it's an opportunity to understand each other. The problem is, if either the guy or the girl takes on the perspective of "I'm obviously right and you're wrong if you disagree," then they're being unreasonable and stalling out the relationship. Both parties need to be honest and understand the other to get past it. The discussion over the diamonds may in fact be very important because it gets to the heart of a bunch of concurrent issues.

(I'm using "guy" and "girl" here because that's the situation where these cultural norms are at play. Obviously any other combination of genders could have the same issues, though I suspect it's less common in those cases.)
Exactly. The question is what language at game developers working in. I mean, at the end if the day, everything's machine code.

Show HN: HTML requires
I think we all pretty much know inmates are treated poorly, and while it is most certainly a tragedy, we are a) unable to meaningfully change their situations in the short or medium term and b) have more directly effecting issues that take priority.

Why is it that all the successful companies in the private prison industry are terrible for the inmates? The client is the state, and the state doesn't care about costs associated with caring for inmates, right?

Is there any way to turn that on its head? To... uh, "disrupt" some small part of this?
Hi! Author here! I made a thing!

Declarative HTML requires, where requiring practically anything is a data attribute away.

In its current incarnation, all it does is load HTML and put its components in places that make sense, replacing the original <link> tag.

It does need better checking and it does need better features, but at this moment it's super sufficient for a freelance project of mine, and could be useful for other people too, hence my sharing it.

I'm all for prison reform, but other than the bits where officers do demeaning things to the prisoners, this really just becomes a list of things that prisoners feel would make their lives more comfortable.

Well yeah, no shit. Of course they want it better in there. If they got all this, they'd eventually be complaining that they should have computers and playstations.

Prison isn't supposed to be torture (physically or mentally) but it's also not supposed to be better than poor people have it. If poor people can't be taken care of to the point they have these things (and I think they should!) then I don't think starting with the prisons is the right way to go.
Which pales in comparison to the multi-platform goodness of TortoiseHg since it is an independent creation designed from the ground up for the distributed workflow rather than a reworked TortoiseSVN. I wish someone would do a Git conversion of THG.

W3C: "Service workers create the opportunity for a bad actor to turn a bad day into a bad eternity."[1] With service workers, cross-site scripting vulnerabilities are forever.

Service workers install by drive-by, which is troubling. In Firefox, check "about:serviceworkers" to see what you have installed. Take a look. You probably have far more service workers active than you thought. There are supposed to be enough cross-site scripting restrictions to keep service workers contained to their origin domain, but some holes have been found. There was a successful service worker attack on Dropbox, since fixed. "If you run a site that serves user files with secret URLs from a shared domain, you need to look out for the Service-Worker: script HTTP header; if you see it, run for the hills."[2]

If an attacker can get one page loaded from a site being attacked, they then own all traffic between the user and the site. This has lots of attack potential.

Huginn is great, but I wish it was easier to chain stuff together. Node RED has an awesome UI, but the building blocks are aimed at something else entirely.
I don't agree with people that say just because she wants the diamond ring, it means the relationship is a bad relationship. It's not irrational to feel social pressure, and feel real pain by not conforming to social norms. At the end of the day if she is happier, that is where she drives economic utility. Just keep at the dialogue, and try to communicate how spending money on something you consider to be unnecessary and imprudent actually harms you emotionally. Hopefully, you will be able to have a nice dialogue and compromise so that you both feel respect from the other person.
Meh, forbes is more a problem with those pesky pre-load screens. The Verge site is a massive heap of dung even after loading. I swear every image is loaded as RAWs and then converted via JS into something edible by the browser, or some other "hipster artistry".
I admit, I don't do a lot of native mobile development, but of course I have participated in the production of many mobile apps, mostly servicing middle and back-end tiers using JavaScript and Node (because I specialize in JavaScript). For instance, I wrote a bunch of the code the powers mobile notifications for mobile apps connected to the Adobe Creative Cloud.

One of the biggest problems I saw with maintaining separate apps was that we struggled to keep feature parity across the products, and that would frustrate our users when they switched back and forth between the web app and the mobile apps. Features they depended on in the web app didn't exist in the native app or vice verse.

Yet another compelling reason to choose the universal web platform technology.
In old 8-bit Basic it was, many times, a kind of battle between interpreter and assembly. I would write things in Basic, then see if it was fast enough. If it was not it usually was pretty obvious where the issue was; if the code was complex I would rewrite it to a version that more or less would convert to assembly naturally and then test again. You would have to lose basic pretty quickly especially for games, so in the end (of the 80s basically) I started straight in assembly. And that is what I missed and found again now in limited resource embedded chip programming; doing almost all the actual work in your head and on paper instead of trial and error everything.

What actual evidence is there of this? The clintons receive more than enough money through paid speeches and those would be the route you would use if you wanted to set up a quid pro quo. Using a charitable foundation to do this doesn't make sense generally nor in this case. Of course, lobbying and getting on paid boards after a government career is basically a quid pro quo( the presumption is that after you work for the industry you get a cushy career paid by the industry you helped) but that has been totally ignored this election cycle.
Custom design ring. Plus earrings. Plus necklace. Plus manband.

I think I can now (by that I mean in the future) justify this by not having diamonds. Yours looks amazing.
I find it a bit amusing that were they to "update" their look to that of the flat Windows 8+ UI, it would probably entail the removal of a lot of code.

...and yet even on a 25MHz 386, no one complained about the slow drawing speed of the "fancy" 3D buttons in Win3.x.
Elaborate! Do you mean AI or visual coding and editing tools?
Food, housing inputs, and health care devices could all be printed.
I would go further and say that the visual cortex and the rest of the brain are really just feature extractors for the body to use. And without a lifetime of embodied experience, neither can "vision" be solved nor can "general AI" be realized.

It's impossible to really see something unless you have the opportunity to interact with it (or things like it). It's impossible to understand something unless you have the opportunity to interact with it (or things like it). Without interaction there can be no intelligence. The best you can do is have an intelligent being (the human researcher) train a computer to mimic intelligent action in a constrained environment. But there is no path from there to general intelligence without interaction.

And there is no interaction without a body of some shape. The body can be virtual, and needn't look like a human body, but there needs to be a set of actuators which cause realtime changes in the input space.

I would say think very carefully before deciding if you want to marry her.

This advice applies to everyone really, but especially to you as this incident is a signal that there might be some incompatibility in your values, which is a warning sign.

I'd say try and take this to the ultimate conclusion of resolving the topic amicably, without either side just giving in. Don't shut it down or put it off. A fight, or even a break up is better than carrying on as if it doesn't matter. This would be a good test of how things will go once you are married.

Also read some books on choosing a partner / comparability.
I would say that this should be the highest priority thing for you so ditch any side projects, say NO to overtime and sort this one out. Good luck, and feel free to take this unsolicited advice with a pinch of salt :-)
A negative income tax has the same issues as a basic income. It isn't remotely affordable based on the current tax rates without large cuts to social spending and/or eliminating it entirely.
Order some boxes of MREs. I think most people in the world should have have a month's supply or more.
Yes, absolutely agreed. Last night's quake exposed my flat's somewhat chronic lack of preparation. I'll be visiting the supermarket tonight and ensuring our insurance policies are up to date, as I imagine much of Chch will be.

What does this mean to you? Why isn't it true of silicon carbide?

I find it odd to see the simultaneous complaint that one clear cubic crystal is "cheap", but another is "overpriced". What do you want the price to be? Why?
100% land value tax.

Whether or not there is a basic income, it's the right thing to do. Income should be either earned (by creating value) or shared equally (if derived from land and natural resources).
My business partner and I ran a website (rubylane.com) for many years, just the 2 of us, colocated at he.net. With good hardware (we used Supermicro servers bought from acme.com), it's not a big deal. We mirrored every disk drive with hardware raid1, had all the servers connected in a loop via their serial ports, had the consoles redirected to the serial ports, and it was not much of a hassle. When we were first starting, we used cheap hardware and that caused us some pain. The other very useful thing we had setup is virtual IP addresses for all of the services: search engine, database, www server, image server, etc. The few times we ever had trouble with the site or needed to take a machine out of service, we could redirect its services to another machine with fakeip.

Recently I bought an old SuperMicro server on eBay, configured it with 2 6-way AMD Opterons, 3 8-way SATA controllers, and 32GB of memory. With 4TB 5700RPM drives in an 8-way software RAID6, it could do 800MB/sec. I realize it's not small file random I/O, but a blended configuration where you put small files on SSD and large files on spinning disk would probably be pretty sweet.

My intuition is that learning all the ins-and-outs of AWS, and how to react and handle all kinds of situations, is not that much easier than learning how to react with your own hardware when problems come up. Especially consider that AWS is constantly changing things and it's out of your control, whereas with your own hardware, you get to decide when things change.

If you can colocate physically close, it's a lot easier. Our colocation was in Fremont but our office was in San Fran, so it was a haul if we had to install or upgrade equipment. But even so, there was only 1 or 2 times in 7 years that we needed to spend 2 consecutive days at the colo. One of those was during a major upgrade where it turned out that the (cheap) hardware we bought was faulty.
> "there is a class of people who naturally gravitate to social isolation yet, paradoxically, desire closeness"

Thank you for the description of avoidant personality types, I recognise elements of this in myself.

Similar themes were explored in the anime Neon Genesis Evangelion. I would suggest the main protagonist Shinji definitely has these traits (probably expressed mostly directly through the 'Hedgehog's Dilemma'). I felt a certain amount of relief after finding that show, that at least the creators understood. It also helped that it was a great anime.

To be honest, whilst I don't have the same desire for friendship that I once did, the main thing I do have desire for is a form of sensuality (not sexuality). Moments that are complete without words/with very few words. That's not exactly the easiest thing to communicate to other people, so most of the time I'll just enjoy it in my own time.
My subconscious mind is a better driver than I am. the moment I start thinking, I make mistakes.

That's ridiculous. The Wright Brothers changed the world. On par if not exceeding today's equivalent of Marc Andreesen (Netscape), Bill Gates (Microsoft), Brin&Page (Google) - and the last time I checked, people like that DO own big house(s) and CAN afford to travel and do experiments without any worries about rent, food, healthcare.

By today's standards, many people were "poor" back then - it's all relative. Maybe in 100+ years they'll look back and marvel at how "poor" Andreesen/Gates/etc... were too.

You can be poor today and still make it big. You don't need a college degree or the massive debt that entails, you can make up for that with a good idea + hard work + persistence + live as frugal as possible + a little luck. It's not exactly the same - some things are harder and some things are easier, but overall it's still doable.
I get the bug, but does it introduce any security issues/considerations?
Just buy her the diamond! If it's something that she really wants, then don't let your own feelings get in the way of that. Thats really selfish. Kind of the gist of being married is compromise.

I mean, seriously, a ring could be had for $3k. You're going to throw away a 5 year relationship with someone you'd like to be married to because you won't buy her something that costs the same as the new stupid MacBook? She's not worth the $3k to you? She's the one who should be having second thoughts.
Going out on a limb, printed food would still need foodstock inputs of some type, and housing still needs land.
I was a witness for a couple (who I had only met earlier that day) at a Vegas wedding. I would also like to point out that the U.S. is as large as all of Europe combined, and that there are vast cultural differences throughout.

Which is why the inhumane treatment of prisoners by people like former Sheriff Joe Arpaio in AZ was not only tolerated but often condoned by the public. It's why he was re-elected, for being perceived as tough on crime.

While they might not admit it, some people want to know that these criminals are being mistreated. They like the idea, somewhere deep down, of a criminal being forced to wear pink underwear and being fed spoiled food. It's twisted, wrong even. But it's very much American. Like apple pie, or baseball.
I guess there were no longer any USSR to supply them with fertilizer and other stuff for free, and China retracted some of their support too. And they relied on centralized mechanized agriculture. Which in this closed off society led to a large scale famine.

In having served almost 10 years in prison for drugs. I can say that medium and maximum security prisons are often a breeding ground for killers, and dangerous people.

Young kids who have done something incredibly stupid usually end up in these places. They are then immediately put in a situation to fuck or fight. This behavior will often escalate to extreme violence or to be broken psychologically, then owned by other inmates, bought and sold like property. Can that kind of behavior be unlearned? I doubt it... I would argue that at best, people can only learn to do something better, but always lurking in the background.

This is only one of many of the bizarre insanities of prison life. I personally don't disagree with the idea of punishment or prison. I would however say that prisons are extremely dysfunctional.

We keep an emergency "go bag" in the front hall closet with tools necessary for basic survival. Included in that are 6 weeks worth of MREs for the family, water filtration system, water storage (fill it in a tub), rope, shovel, saw, first-aid kits, blankets, and so on.

Whatever the situation may be, whether natural, political, or zombie-related, we can grab that and hit the road knowing we have the basics.
Oh ok, I guess this doesn't happen with bcrypt, right? Because it spits out a different hash every time you hash it.
One important thing to note is the shelf life on MRE's vary both by type and storage conditions. Anyone new to this idea needs to do their research.
You should ask someone who believes these things. As I said I think it is kinda sick. Personally I believe the Norwegian model is preferable.
This turns out to be based on a conspiracy theory:

"Current public perception of diamonds is the direct result of a masterfully executed marketing campaign by De Beers that began in 1938, not inherent scarcity or value. If you've read the article by Edward Epstein (you really should), you know all of the gory details. Isn't it amazing (and scary) how brainwashed people are about the "value" of diamonds, even though they're not actually worth that much?"

Thus, without further investigation, we can conclude that the writer is a croony crackpot (I don't know if thats a thing, but, anyhow)

right?
This is just the first time I get a NRA ad, it just happened to appear on a MLK video. It can be targeting at me, it is still interesting that it appeared on that particular video.
