Hi, here Michael from Migadu. The reason we're using Haraka is that it's very fast, very flexible, and easily extendible. Furthermore, it's actually quite mature, version 2 was released in 2012 and now the're are about monthly releases. We are happy with it.

My 6 year old HP EliteBook has slightly better spec that my new HP EliteBook. The build quality is worse too, the newer one is just more lightweight and s bit thinner, but the battery is just 4h instead of 15h.

I would go back to the old one, the only better thing is the screen resolution.
Getting to Mars seems to be the most feasible option at this moment, because we already have a lot of answers for this route and things like radiation shield (I bet this will be deflector shield) will be sorted out soon.

But when we'll figure out how to build something in Venus atmosphere, it's quite likely we will already have working fusion reactors. And they open the way both for faster space travel and for heating and industry on Titan, which means that it's more comfortable option for us than Venus. Still, not a second choice, because we'll have to build a base and some industry on the Moon anyway.
Here's the frustrating thing. You could have 9 out of 10 students who fit in and conform to social norms. But that one student who doesn't is the one that will always stick out in people's mind and by which they judge the other 9.
That was true for the Skylake XPS machines. The new Kaby Lake machines, sold with either Windows or Ubuntu, all use the "Killer" Qualcomm Atheros chip.

There's also more configurations to pick from with Windows, so it's not a bad idea if you're comfortable installing Ubuntu by yourself.
Actually that's not true. We currently don't know the bottom of osteoporosis, all we observed was a gradual decline in bone quality directly proportional to the length of stay, some astronauts returning with bones of 80-year olds, in a few cases irreversibly so. All other declines like muscular mass, amount of circulating blood, heart shrinkage have some equilibrium beyond which no adverse trend continues. With osteoporosis we never observed this, so going to long flights, we might lose all our bones. Supplements, training etc. help a bit, yet the decline + increased Ca excretion persists despite. Not mentioning this is not friendly to kidneys as well and nobody wants to end up with stones developed during a spaceflight.

AMP is the result of webmasters being unable to provide any kind of reasonable site performance. Which isn't hard. Don't include content from dozens or hundreds of thirdparty hosts. Don't do crazy amounts of super slow javascript.

If people would do that there would be no need for AMP. The whole concept is mostly "Google tells people their webpages suck and puts them into a cage where they can guarantee that they don't suck".
A penny sized hole in a space suit on Mars could mean a quick death. The lack of an atmosphere on Mars would make it exceedingly difficult to set up a colony there.
> [don't] talk about the "real" reality and mathematics together

That stopped me just at the right moment, but then you went and still did it:

> Through mathematics we learn more about the limits of our own model building/cognition than any secrets of the universe.

This is illogic, assuming we are part of the universe. Ignoring that last part, as you wanted, I get the reference. It comes down to saying, through learning about models we learn more about models. I agree if the stress is on learning, because to learn is part of the root of the word mathematics.

The real kicker nowadays is learning about learning, the mind, neurology, etc. directly.

When I've peeked in on e.g. the lisp subforum, it looked to be quite good, although that was a while ago, too frustrating to contemplate engaging without being able to be part of the conversation (which, I again emphasize, is an entirely legitimate method to avoid a variety of problems).
A lot of people have experimented with a lot of different ways of encoding binary data as printable text. Wikipedia has a list of different encoding schemes[0].

The most efficient one is yEnc[1]. Still the simplest ones such as base64 or good old hex may actually work better once compression comes into the picture.

> That's clearly a faulty assumption. If production depends on a job and supply is short, then the value and pay will rise until supply meets demand.

I don't disagree with your statement about supply and demand. But as a matter of fact, the supply is never short, because structures of society force a large fraction of the population into jobs they cannot let go, whether they like it or not.

It is common knowledge that people of low social status are given a choice between shitty jobs and starvation. Saying "if the job is not good enough, supply will fall and wages will have to rise" does not take into account the highly competitive character of the job market, especially for those with low educational capital.
You can't change how tall or short you are tho, so that's not in any way commenting on your character.

In "western" (not just American) cultures, calling somewhat fat is basically calling them gluttonous or lazy (both among the 7 deadly sins).

What on earth does he mean by saying that "the reduce method [instead of inject] is performance friendly and a more "Ruby way" of doing things"? `reduce` is an alias for `inject`...
A sufficiently advanced LINQ (http://wiki.c2.com/?SufficientlySmartCompiler) would do wonders in some cases, but I haven't encountered it. AFAIK, LINQ to SQL only knows about joins and some aggregate functions.

One thing that makes improving it cumbersome is that the semantics of many operations are slightly different in the database than in C#. For example, SQL Server doesn't do NaNs and infinities, supports a zillion string string collations, and its date types may not 100% map to C# ones.

Also, databases may run stored procedures faster than the SQL that LINQ genrerates on the fly because they can cache their query plans (most databases will detect that an on-the-fly query is equal to one run recently, though, so this may be somewhat of a moot argument)
Most people agree that climate change has made the situation in Syria worse, but don't claim that climate change is the cause.

http://www.irinnews.org/news/2010/03/25/why-water-shortages

> Poor planning and management, wasteful irrigation systems, intensive wheat and cotton farming and a rapidly growing population are straining water resources in Syria in a year which has seen unprecedented internal displacement as a result of drought in eastern and northeastern parts of the country.

> “Population [estimated at 24 million in 2009] growth, urbanization and increased economic activity have contributed to the water crisis, as have climate change and mismanagement of the water sector,” said a local expert, who preferred anonymity.

http://www.irinnews.org/feature/2009/09/02/drought-driving-f...

> Blamed on a combination of climate change, man-made desertification and lack of irrigation, up to 60 percent of Syria's land and 1.3 million people (of a population of 22 million) are affected, according to the UN. Just over 800,000 people have lost their entire livelihood, according to the UN and IFRC.

[...]

> Aid agencies say a sustainable long-term plan for the affected areas is needed. "We need to do studies to identify a disaster risk reduction strategy on how to overcome climate change and have better farming practices," said Awad.

http://www.irinnews.org/analysis/2015/10/20

> Most studies currently describe climate change as a “threat multiplier” rather than a direct cause, just one of a host of interconnected factors – like poverty, exclusion of ethnic groups, government mismanagement, political instability and societal breakdown – that drive conflict.
Interesting theory, small sample. For me, it's more looking into the face of another is distracting. I involuntarily imagine time-lapse(forward & back) of a speaker/listener's face, note a facial scar/blemish and wonder briefly upon it's genesis or focus on their lips as they speak(I have some tone deafness that loses convo amidst background noise). I look for similarities and differences to myself and empathize with time's past and future effects. It is a huge distraction. Even more so when it's a stranger or adversarial encounter. As for staring into eyes, I find it unsettling when someone's focus jumps from my one eye to another, while I umdwrstand my static 'face stare' gives an impression I may be something of a dullard... eyes are only one indicator of body language, hyper-focus on them never gives me the complete, albeit distracting, picture.

edit: reword 2nd to last sentence.
I think it's because you need to perform physically demanding tasks on the Mars surface, which is a bit difficult with severely damaged bones. If you are on ISS, after 6 months you get to be pampered upon landing and the doctors try to ramp your bones back up for some period of time, limiting your physical stress and minimizing risk of e.g. a fatal broken hip injury.

You would be surprised to learn that in some impoverished countries like Nepal being called fat is a compliment. People use same word to describe someone who is fat or muscular. It is a compliment because being fat means you are rich enough to have more than enough to eat.

I really appreciate that and further think you are on the right track with honesty (drawbacks, etc.), as people get more and more immune to marketing bullshit.

Without calling names, can you elaborate on that?
@edent - what web server are you using? I wouldn't bother with any Wordpress plugins, but if you're using Apache or something you should be able to `mod_rewrite` pages ending in `/amp` to the same page minus the `/amp`, which _should_ work right? Hopefully then Google will notice the 301s and catch up.

Posting this here because in the comments on the blog post he asked for any code that might help with that, I think something like:

`RewriteRule (.+)/amp/$ $1`

might work

>I used to be in Ads, though not on AMP.

Maybe I misread that, but for me it sums AMP up in quite a good way: It's not really about making the web better, it's about more admoney for Google, if a former ads guy has to point out he didn't work on the AMP project there ;)
I don't think the issues that are putting Earth in danger are the result of some immutable, unfortunate human nature. I think they are the result of a system that could be changed as easily as it was put in place. Many of the pathologies of the modern society were consciously manufactured (c.f. "Propaganda" by Edward Bernays), and all we need to do is to realize this, and start changing things. Luckily, the young generation is far less bought into the current system, and I believe we will see a move to a saner way of life over the coming decades.
> It would be good if HN keeps out of politics, and specially anything related to India.

It is better that we put our point across than saying that keep it of HN. BTW, I am a big fan of Mr. Modi. Cheers.
I suspected they might; but figured I'd make the offer as others might also like to try it out (and it seemed they did, I had a bucket of emails and sent invites out!).

I've posted a couple of things on there and although there seems to be a lot less traffic than HN/Reddit (at least for the posts that were to my blog) there quality of discussion seemed to be much better :-)
Not every aircraft has all the expertise, tools, and spares on board at all times to be able to service or replace their engines in flight.

If the system has not been designed from the ground up for that type of service, then the on-board expertise would also have to be gifted at developing workarounds on-the-spot that reliably work the first time.
I don't think it's vacuous but I agree it would be clearer with examples.
You are probably confusing octals with octets.

Octals (in the current context) is simply a way of referring to the fact the opcodes are expressed in octal values (base 8), as opposed to hex (base 16) or binary (base 2).

Octet on the other hand is simply an alternative word for byte ( is no longer used and is somewhat archaic.) They are in no way different to bytes and are just another way to refer to 8 bits.

Octal used to be a lot more popular before the 80s and most languages still interpret numbers with a leading zero as an octal value.
Evolution is the obvious answer for how we move into hostile environments. Hardening the environment seems inefficient.

Seveneves is a fun book that explores this concept.

E.g., probably better to evolve a few new species who can live in orbit around the earth for a few thousand years. They'd have a better time with all these issues (radiation, resources, etc)
This article is completely biased.

I agree with you. My site was already fairly lightweight, but I wanted to see if AMP improved things and made a better user experience.

It made it slightly faster, but other than that, didn't create a big enough impact for me to notice.
It doesn't sound like you are iterating on this. Look at the code you are not happy with. What is wrong? Can you fix it? If so, try to do those things next time. Don't stop the process.

Yeah, it is. Regex is supported too.
That's because university economics courses are typically taught by economists with a vested interest in the continuation of rampant consumerism.
I worked for Bridge previously and have seen their schools and visited numerous government schools in the vicinity. There are a lot of valid criticisms against Bridge but (1) kids do not learn relative to government school (2) kids are not safe, are not amongst them.

Also, I don't understand why "for profit" is considered bad. You are not taking away the free public option but rather increasing their choice set by providing a private option. Parents can choose and that is generally considered to be welfare enhancing.

I'd love for CNN to do some real investigative journalism for a change and actually visit a few schools.
Maybe vacuous isn't the best word. It's got a lot of empty spaces in between its lines that let you substitute your preconceptions into its narrative. It's rather vague when taken on its own, and if you want to question or verify its assertions, there is nothing concrete to work with.

It is a syndication format.

If you wanted to build a mobile directory or search engine you could make your own AMP server and do something like what Google does.

Google gets more gain out of it than anybody else because of their dominance of that space, having proven monetization methods in place, etc. If the shared Google result is displayed on the Google network they can reuse the same TCP connection, which gives them an edge.

You are free to build fast pages with web technology, in fact that is what I do. Most people seem to have a hard time with it, particularly because they include a huge amount of stuff using Javascript inclusions from third party sites and this is a critical technology since this is where the money comes from.
The mainland is at least 95% of "China", depending on which definition you use.
On the other hand, as evidenced by a few other comments here, there are probably quite a few who don't want the security "improved" Apple-style, to the point that losing the password really means it's impossible to recover from.

Note that this password only allows access to BIOS and being able to boot; if the HDD also has a password and/or is encrypted, this doesn't really affect security of data.

You read correctly, but it also doesn't tell the full story. I've edited to be "not related to AMP" to try to convey this better.

In short: AMP itself is not part of Ads, but there is a group within Ads focussing on AMP - because one of the biggest blockers to AMP adoption is (was?) getting ads supported within the model.

I believe our ideas are formed in our brain, that is part of the physical word. So I think the schism you presented would be void.
This is so true. I have the Broadwell laptop, which is great, and the D3100 docking station, which is an utter piece of garbage, for all the reasons above. If you used or tried to use it for even just half an hour, you'd probably resort to even more inflammatory language. For me, it has become a very expensive USB hub. I gave up on it completely when I realized that its USB audio feature locked up the machine.

Thankfully, I found that the XPS13 has a DisplayPort output that is capable of driving two daisy-chained monitors in addition to the internal screen (no mirroring!), even at 2560x1440 on each. I use it with two Dell 27" monitors. They must support DP1.2 for chaining to work. To be fair, there was a regression for hotplug detection from Ubuntu 15.10 to 16.04, but it was recently fixed.
What I am saying is the industry will behave with demand and supply. You can only expect bootcamps to get more and more popular with increasing software engineering jobs and increasing number of people changing careers. Bootcamps happen to be a feasible choice for people struggling to learn on their own and looking to find mentorship and structured learning environment without spending years and large tuition fees. However, if you are dissatisfied with the bootcamp education then vilifying someone who is just trying to help other people like him is not the right way.
Regarding 13h vs 22h battery life - I wonder if c't did any test with manually enabled SATA power management? This is a big deal on recent Intel hardware and unfortunately is still not enabled automatically by linux kernel, as described here:

http://mjg59.dreamwidth.org/42156.html

Easiest way to enable this is to run "powertop", switch to "Tunables" tab, then toggle all lines that look like this:

>> Bad Enable SATA link power management for host0
>> Bad Enable SATA link power management for host1
Thank you. I don't think I would be able to touch anything newer than that, honestly. Especially with current-generation devices, where everything is literally glued together, to a point where disassembling it and assembling back is next to impossible unless you have the specific tools (and skills) already.

I have iPhone 5S and the battery is kind of giving up. Still going to try to find a shop (too bad it won't be Apple official one) where they'd do a battery replacement before buying a new one.

Whenever Mr. Modi gets mentioned some leftists people seem to pin point Gujriat (a state in India) riots to tarnish him where hundreds of Muslims were killed, but conveniently don't mention the fact that these riots were started by Muslims.
These leftists had opposed Mr. Modi and prevented him from entering USA before he became their PM.

AFAIK, Gujriat riots were mainly a response to the cruel burning of lots of Hindoos by jihadist Islamists. It seems, the vicious and barbaric ideology of Islam creates problems everywhere it goes and starts to become even localized majority.

We can also see that Islamists have been clashing even with the Buddists in Sri Lanka and Myanmar.

Disclaimer: I am pitching here as an anti-Islam (not anti-Muslim) liberal person. I do not condone the killing of innocent people whether they are Muslims or non-Muslims.
I've never used Ruby before, but I learned something interesting when Googling what I thought was a weakness in his preferred solution to the first problem: Apparently, in Ruby, integer types have two internal representations that are flexibly switched between as needed. One representation uses a fixed size (analogous to long/int64 in other languages) and the other representation, Bignum, has an arbitrary size (analogous to Java's BigDecimal). So the simple (1..n).reduce(:lcm) approach should work for n of arbitrary size, though I don't think it's the most efficient approach.
Although in theory AMP makes sense, I think the issue is actually more broad than just mobile. On desktop, lots of people rely on an ad blocker to make sites usable again. That mobile doesn't have a way to block ads is probably a failure of Google, Apple and other players to allow extensions.

Google has a majority share of the first impression for ads so it's hard for me to really understand how they can't just strong arm other advertisers and other networks into having better ads. Maybe that's the AMP play but it's a pretty weak appeal to consumers and (as evident from this thread) publishers. Ad blockers proliferating are a response to this inaction in my mind.

Exactly. I wouldn't be surprised if we get brain uploads before we get a self-sustaining Mars Colony. At which point current efforts to colonize Mars would have the same impact on spreading humans throughout the universe as the Tower of Babel did in getting us to the moon.
