I've written a fair amount of Elm, and I still find it awkward. One issue is that I feel like I end up having to go back and add in brackets more than I would with the C-style syntax. I'm not sure if that's just the way I think thanks to being used to that, or an inherent problem.

The main issue really is that I think it's harder to read, as it's less clear what is being used where. The explicitness of the C-style makes it easier to see what goes where.
And what does the potential source of these attacks have to do with the technical nature of the article? You're blaming others for bringing up politics when the author is clearly doing the same by consistently bring up the potential perpetrator of these attacks without any hard evidence, which contributes absolutely nothing to the relevance of the article.
It's different when the customer knows about the timer and agrees to it somewhere in the EULA. It's when you hide that security file, or go back in and do something, that you're stepping into a whole new pile of shit.

A lot of PHP software (forum software like vBulletin, CMS's, etc.) have phone-home or license verification mechanisms. That's usually fine, unless you whip up something nasty that does something beyond just disabling the software in question.
No offense, but do you think your transactions are not surveilled by your government or any of those three lettered agencies? ;)
IIRC Windows XP 64-bit was supposed to be a pure 64-bit OS - no compatibility layer for 32-bit apps. Which is most of the reason it didn't get some great adoption.

Later versions of 64-bit Windows had that compatibility layer.

Charging a 3Ah battery in 1 minute would need 180A @ 3.7V (not 18A), or 666W.

USB power delivery can provide 100W (5A @ 20V.)

I think I'd be happy if I was able to charge a 11.1Wh battery in < 7 minutes.
I'm currently working in the journalism world so taking a lot of feedback on how to tell compelling stories with the tool.

In the other hand I'm playing with other kind of input, such as speech recognition, for in-vr authoring.

While it is true that people (besides the very rich and very desperate) usually don't try and migrate to escape laws, corporations do it all the time and think about it proactively. It is particularly easy for technology companies to say, great I'll do all my hosting in Uruguay instead of Britain, make my terms of service under Uruguayan law, etc.

If Uruguay becomes a criminal sanctuary--then sure maybe it will be ostracized internationally--but as long as law abiding, upright business people have legitimate business there its more enlightened policy will make others think twice about enacting less enlightened ones and give companies some options. Moreover, it gives companies tied to Britain a strong incentive to advocate for a reasonable policy so they are not placed at a competitive disadvantage.

This doesn't mean that lawmaking has to be a false choice between anarchy and totalitarian surveillance, just that the OP's point that more variance in jurisdictions, the higher the pressure on the least permissive to mitigate the worst excesses is a real phenomenon.
This is anecdotal: girl I know had a guy push her after a bad joke in a group while everyone was drinking. I don't think the guy meant any harm by it, he didn't cause her any harm. He should keep his hands to himself but it was clearly not done with ill intent nor was it hard enough to hurt her.

She later said that was 'violent,' then it turned into, that was 'rape.' Really.

She tried badmouthing about that guy to some other drunk guys at a bar to do her bidding to get revenge. Nothing came of it, except some mean comments towards that guy.

The next day I asked her about it and she was quite belligerent in discussing it. So I didn't continue. When getting up to leave she was joking about how in the past at a night club she had gotten two guys to beat up another guy because she didn't like that guy.

Anyways, I feel like this might happen a lot more than is reported. The guy who this happened to said he 'just didn't want any more trouble' so he wasn't going to follow up on it and report her or do anything else.

That girl even made some comment about how 'guys are rapists.' WTF
Blackjack and Poker are fun but unfortunately there are no casino games in that collection.
Good point. We are trying to cover some mid-end apps too. Basically the reason is we are planning to implement some functionality on-the-chip, such as a USB 3.1 PHY which requires a decent tech.
Wow, couldn't be more wrong. It's indeed C family (BCPL, B). Thanks a lot for the note.
Looking at this makes me wonder if there is IDE support for handling the way that Fortran does generic functions? So much boilerplate and repetition required...

Voters did not authorize Smoot-Hawley or the confiscation of gold or the disregard of the money Clause of the Constitution. That was accomplished by incompetents, criminals and traitors occupying political office. It occurred about the same time that voters in Germany elected Hitler Chancellor, and about the same time that passports were institutionalzed, to prevent freedom of movement. The 19th century abolished slavery. The 20th century re-imposed it, and made it universal, creating the public-private complex which owns our labor today.
OK, let me rephrase my objection.

"This is a constant process reflecting upon the current situation, and upon the recent past of actions and plans. It is like an observer observing itself. This is the root of consciousness, I think."

Your description seems to fall under "the ability of a system to access its own internal states" and/or "the reportability of mental states" from the 'easy problems' section of the wiki pages I linked to.

Both could be possible without consciousness at all. We could imagine (or even program) a robot that in response to external stimuli modifies its state. It could also have second order algorithms, eg. it could check what state it's in and if it remains in the same state for too long, the state changes randomly. It would be the same as 'observer observing itself'.

This functional explanation in any way doesn't lead to the phenomena of consciousness, which would require the robot to have some specific first-hand 'experience' of the world and itself. That's the difference between the easy and the hard problem of consciousness.

a typical plug in a home can provide 10A.
So to charge the phone you will need some big connector,
not a tiny microUSB like connector.

Current capacity for conductors depends on conductor length as well as conductor size. Short runs of a given size have a higher current capacity than longer lengths due to the larger losses in larger lengths. Also, current capacity depends on the length of time the current has to be carried: a given length of a given conductor size will carry a larger current for a short amount of time compared to the carrying capacity for a longer duration. While a micro-USB connector will not suffice, the needed connector would not be that much bigger: a 3.5mm jack would suffice to carry 18A for a few seconds given a good socket. It would not be hard to design a plug/socket combination with a high-enough capacity which would fit in a phone.

To recharge the phone once a week,
I guess you will need a 20000mAH battery

I recharge my phone (a Motorola Defy+) once a week. It has a ~1500 mAh battery, the thing is 5 years old. I don't think you'd need a 20.000 mAh battery to be able to keep your phone running for a week unless you plan to use it as a hand warmer.

USB-C is rated to 100W (5A @ 20V), and that's quite a small connector.

At USB-C speeds, it would only take a few minutes to charge a typical cellphone sized battery/supercapacitor.
True. Even ₹500 and ₹1000 aren't banned per se. They are being replaced with new currency notes (of 500 and 2000 denomination).
When transactions are controlled and surveilled then what can stop total control by a determined government?

Where do you get the impression that this is happening in India ?
Consciousness is self evident in the most literal sense. For something to be evident, it must be observed, which means it will be experienced, but consciousness is experience itself. It is self-evident because it is the thing which allows things to be evident.

Heliocentrism was never "self-evident" it was merely obvious, and wrong. (And incidentally, it was actually far more scientific than Galileo until years after his death.)
When I was a kid, I really wanted glasses because I thought they looked cool. My vision was 20/10 and 20/15 all through school.

Finally, when I was about 27, I broke down and got glasses as I noticed my vision was slipping.

I can still walk around and drive without them. Sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night and do some on-call work for 20min while squinting at the screen. I can spend a few hours walking around the house without them.

But I never leave home without them, and I never drive or work without them, and I never take them off. I simply don't see the problems you see; yes, they get dirty, i clean them perhaps once a week. I don't smudge them because I'm careful not to.

I still rather quite like them and the way they look. I have no desire to poke my fingers into my eyes or get lasers shot into them.

I'm sure you could argue that it's different for me because I don't have to wear them to see, but it's really not that different -- I wear them every minute of every waking day except those extraordinarily rare days I mention.

It helps that I go out of my way to get glasses I like. I have a few pair of colorful titanium and carbon fiber frames. Yes, it's a bit painful to spend $600+ every year or two, but worth it to have something I like the look of.

The US did this after WWII, that's why you can't get a bill bigger than $100 anymore. It was done over 20 years. The rule that any cash transaction over $10k must be reported goes back to 1970.
After reading the article, and reading replies to you, I still have to guess whether this is a Linux kernel or something else. And I still don't understand why they don't mention this on their site. The talk of "kernel with certain patches" has me guessing it is indeed Linux.
That's his point. Yes they are, when they can be. You can't track cash transactions.
This only applies to servicing contracts, when you're the customer constant delivery is very well overrated. Even with servicing contracts shipping every week or two is a definite recipe for mediocrity. You're wasting all that upfront analysis for the sake of early delivery and then suffer from all the bad technical decisions made to build it in a rush. Expect insane amounts of overtime to reach the last milestone on time for such projects.

Deadlines are not that hard when you properly plan to reach them and give yourself a large buffer of time for debugging and QA. You just need to properly analyse the requirements, the existing solutions in your problem's domain, what is known and unknown (keeping meta-ignorance in mind - you dont know what you dont know) and then re-analysing it all every time the requirements change, even slightly.

This means you're going to spend a lot of time upfront before coding starts, and the first deliverable will be months away. Solid foundations yield by far the most agility to any project I've ever seen, and continuous delivery prevents these foundations from being built in the first place. You definitely won't see any proper abstractions at such a pace, what you're most likely to see is an endless sea of indirections.

Same for testing, I've seen many teams starting to write tests for requirements that weren't well understood yet. Then they start piling code up until the tests passes, and finally wonder why there's tons of new bugs in Jira every week. All the tests passed! The type checker passed! But now there's no time left for debugging and the project gets over time and over budget.

The smoothest servicing projects I've ever done were with customers understanding the nature of our work and not minding a long time window before the first delivery, not interfering with the work. The worst servicing projects were having two weeks sprints where the managers would bend over to every single customer demand for fear of losing the contract at the cost of burning out the team and having no quality whatsoever in the finished product.

You get trust with new customers based on your own track record of successfully shipped projects, not continuous delivery over arbitrary milestones. And then you can manage the customer, instead of being managed by them. They pay you because they can't do the work in the first place after all.
64-bit XP ran 32 bit apps just fine. A little more than a decade ago I built a machine with it, and wound up giving it to my very much non techie parents who had no issues with it.

I think the only thing I had trouble with on that machine was finding drivers for a particular printer.
Genuinely curious: do you know precedent that supports the idea of an ad network considered a common carrier? I've seen people claim the same of websites like Facebook or Twitter, but I haven't seen evidence for this either. I've looked for some, but admittedly not extensively.

You can
Because "free speech" is generally understood (in the U.S. at least) to be in the First Amendment sense -- that is, "the government shall not prohibit".

What your rebuttal refers to is (exactly per xkcd 1357) an expected right to be "hosted" by mainstream sources -- an entirely different kettle of fish. And where it becomes a straw man is where it (implicitly) conflates "minority views" with either (1) irredeemable hate space or (2) puerile garbage (a.k.a. the bread and butter of sources like Breitbart).

We should decide ourselves what we do and don't want to hear.

Yup, that's what we already do. When we decide to spend time on sites like 4chan or Reddit, or FB or HN, or CNN or RT, we make, therewith, a decision to consume content as they've chosen to filter it. And I don't know about you, but I don't have much difficulty choosing sources from the above list to focus my attention resources on.

They shouldn't be the ones setting the limits of our discourse.

They're not. By visiting sites that certain guidelines (or make use of ad networks enforcing certain guidelines), you're choosing to accept those constraints.

That ad exchange does not speak for me.

Then... it's within you power to not spend quality time on sites that make use of those networks.

Main point being, the policies applied by ad networks can't meaningfully be called "censorship". Nor is what's happening to Breitbart anything really new (if anything, it's just a recalibration of long-existing policies to a changing media landscape).
Django admin is great in the early stages of a project, when you just need to quickly bring up a page to view your data.

I highly recommend ditching the admin page as soon as you can though - the number of things you can do with it is extremely limited.
Corruption by whom

So is the case in India. Cash transactions aren't banned. The linked article title is misleading. Existing ₹500 and ₹1000 currency notes are being replaced with new ₹500 and ₹2000 ones.
If you're using Python and don't use Django (I've tried it as an exercise for one of my pet projects), you have 2 options.

Create your own framework - writing http headers etc from scratch which will take you forever or Use a lightweight framework like Flask or Web.py.

Either way, you'll end up creating your own ways to query the database and creating patterns to communicate with frontend.
As you write more code, you'll abstract your code to reusable methods.

About a month into the project, you'll realize that you're slowly rolling out your own framework which has grown organically.

Soon you'll realize you're better off using a polished framework like Django which has abstracted many of the details so you can focus on delivering value instead of clobbering together your own framework which will become a burden to maintain alongside your app.
This! And talk to your representative / MP / whatever and tell them how important this is. Often they just don't know and they hear <SCARY THINGS> from people who have control+profit based agendas.
Was actually thinking of Twitter and FB rather than ad networks. Sorry, I appreciate original article was discussing ad networks, however same argument (no moral expectation of speech for private businesses) is always used to allow Twitter to inconsistency ban accounts that don't meet SF political mores.
There are cards missing from the deck.
> I don't believe 75j is a sock-puppet account.

Thank you for the benefit of the doubt. I am not a sock puppet -- if you look at all those accounts you'll see that absolutely none have any overlap chronologically in terms of posting (well, until last night) or voting.

Sorry dang. But, I got deeply offended by being called a liar. I've posted projects on this current account that link to my real identity, so it was important I guess for me to clear my name. I'm also petty like that, but not normally to the extent that it causes problems. I think I've gotten one prior and much milder warning from you over the course of my time on HN. I'll go back to lurking for a while for now.
Just the fact that they are trying to hide the fact that they bought this gear is proof enough for me that they are using them in a way that the populace would not be happy with.

If they were using them in a legal/honorable way, they would be happy for everyone to know that they were using stingrays.

It's sad to me that in a "free" country as a law-abiding citizen, I'm much more nervous about our own governments secretly spiralling out of control than I am about both terrorism and criminals put together.
"3rd degree" just means full thickness burns. She was an older woman, thus had thinner skin; the spill was onto clothing; the spill was into a seat where she had limited mobility.

But ignoring all of that: hot water is dangerous and can cause full thickness burns in seconds.

At 60 C you'd have full thickness burns in 5 seconds.
Current varies inversely with voltage. So the 3000mAh battery (typically at 3.6 volts) is 10.8 watt hours. To charge that in a minute, is 648 watts, or 5.4 amps at 120 volts. So a typical household plug can handle it. Of course, the problem still remains when you step the voltage down to something appropriate to charge the battery.

What might work, is to have the phone battery (capacitor) removable, then snap it into a box that has a larger capacitor that is pre-charged. It can then dump its whole load into the phone's capacitor in a short amount of time (assuming large enough connectors that can handle the current).
Do anti-spam, anti-malware, anti-phishing, and https-everywhere campaigns count as social change?

How about moderation policies for social networks?
I am assuming a lot of people are coming into the thread reading the title and not the article. All cash is not banned in India. Only a couple of denominations have been demonetized and are being replaced by their newer counterparts.

This has happened in India before without issues. The current problems exist because of the scale at which it is being done and the short period of notice given.

Digital payments are taking off because there is a shortage of currency for the amount of money being demonetized. This is not a move made by the Indian government to push surveillance or other nefarious purposes.
> But she wasn't.

Only thanks to the US's Electoral College system, otherwise she would have been President. The matter of fact is that more Americans have voted for Hillary than for Trump.

And going back to the US President's powers, as far as I know the last few wars in which the US has been involved happened without the preliminary Congress approval. Starting a war without the Congress's/Parliament's approval is a royal prerogative since at least the Middle Ages.

> Russia is a de facto monarchy,

Russia is a light-ish dictatorship (people are not sent to the Gulag, yet) which might turn into a tyrant regime (assuming Putin keeps his power and goes crazier), I wouldn't call it a traditional monarchy.

> the United States is a Republic in every way that matters

The Roman Senate survived until at least 400CE (or around that time), meaning 4 and a half centuries after the "de facto" disappearance of the Roman Republic (even more if you go back to Sulla). Thus means that the fact that the US Congress is still around and from time to time likes to play contrarian games doesn't actually mean that the US Republic hasn't lost its original "status" (not an English native speaker, maybe I'm wrong on this word).

Otherwise I can't understand how Obamacare has stood up against the Republican Congress's will.

> His trade deal (TPP) is likely not going to be approved thanks again to Congress.

Had Trump been pro-TPP (or pro-foreign trade in general) I'm 99% sure TPP would have been voted in.

To you, maybe. Maybe you haven't seen how insidious and prevalent corruption is in India? But everyone I've spoken to over the past 3 weeks, who are all solid middle-class, has been for it.
