>please dont say that he can fake it, obviously he can but that is not his true nature.

You'd be surprised. A faked behavior can become one's "true nature" if pursued long/intensively enough.

In other words, pushing one's self to be more X (funny etc), even by faking it for some prolonged time, can affect us.

Here's an example (there are better sources, but this came first on a cursory search): forcing a smile can genuinely and measurable make us feel less stressed.

The trouble with that is, how on earth do you get the annotations to apply across revisions? Or would you be OK with them only applying to a given revision and then ... what, disappearing? Or going into a 'floating bucket' of annotations for the entire file?

> Be atomic

You can only fool yourself that multiple unrelated operations to the filesystem will be atomic. A more pragmatic approach is to clean up everything at the beginning of the script and start the actual operations with that assumption (and checking the exit status of every command). If the script is interrupted in the middle, just start it again.
Oddly enough, I've been contemplating starting such a service for a while now.
So there have been other posts discussing ethics.

About how developers should stand up and rail against their managers/CEOs when the company has asked them to build something unethical.

Where are all the developers now? That's right, underneath their desks coding away. The great ZUCK has spoken and as true CUCKs they bowed down and did his bidding.

No one on the development team is going to speak out. They need their lifestyle maintained.

The hipocrasy is not unexpected. To the world, developers will scream ethics. In private, they will cave, back to their safe spaces no doubt!
Right now, I would take a button to go to the previous revision of a file, showing the full file with the diff underneath. That way I could very easily 'browse' through the history of a file to find out things like when a particular change got introduced or just get a feel for its history. Why on earth don't github/bitbucket provide this? Surely it's a reasonable and common requirement? Or is there something inherent to git that makes it too awkward?

The next step is to support major languages, and C# is definitely on our road map.
Bash (shell-script) is a very powerful language, but a bit too complicated for the non-programmer (computer hacker). Then we got Perl, but it is also a bit too complicated. Now we have JavaScript doing the same thing, but also JavaScript (ES6) is now getting more complicated. I wonder is there a rule that says a (scripting) language for non-programmers will eventually either die or end up being too complicated for non-programmers ?
Bash also has a semicolon. This script could be done in two lines. Or even one if you omit the shebang.
We made some stress tests in the past and it is quite useful.

We did it with Gatling (a very known tool in the Java world) in some of our local machines requesting our machines in Amazon EC2.

As it was commented previously, the test depends on various points, to tell a few:
* Do you want to test a complete web or just a few services?
* The speed of your system depends on the number of instances or there are other points to look like the database connection?
* Do you want to test vertical scale or you want to know about the horizontal scaling too?

We did the tests mainly to know the "breaking point" of our database that was our "weakest link".

Anyway, stress tests are quite useful and give you an idea about how much your system can scale and helps to detect where to improve code before expending too much money in servers.
You are imagining Russian hackers who have a better idea of county-by-county voting patterns in rural Wisconsin than expert American pollsters and statisticians who have been doing this for decades. This theory is not even remotely credible.
Neat idea! As a mostly-Java coder (by choice), I love both the approach to testing your own tool as well as the slight side blow into the Java community regarding long stack traces full of framework-contributed delegation classes and virtual proxies.

But...not more than 20k classes? That doesn't really count as "massive Java application" these days, more like an average-sized enterprise app when including all its dependencies. You would at least triple that to reach "massive" scale ;-)
I found some price data on another island project, a Tesla battery installation on Kaui[1], $0.145/kwh for stored power. The end user price in Hawaii is around $0.33/kwh. While that's not a cheap price for storage, LiIon batteries are on a rapid price decline because of manufacturing learning curve. Net net, it looks like they're just breaking into the cost-effective zone and within a few years will be practical in many places.

The point of the article is to express how something so trivial as a pencil is created by countless intelligent actors, working in kind of dynamic unison, without any controlling agent.

The article makes the point very well - and it's something that definitely should be taught more in school.

I think it's very easy for kids to grasp 'top down' control in government, teams or organizations - it's something so intuitive it does not need explanation.

The concept of 'free markets' and their ability to facilitate amazing things is in some ways counterintuitive, and needs to be learned.

So I think the point is fair.

I don't think anyone is implying that all systems must operate in this manner.
It was never "spend 20% on whatever you like" but "spend 20% on something you can turn into something useable for Google", be it internally or externally. At least that is what I hear from the Googlers I know and have talked to in person.
Possibly illegal, but the mention of being younger makes me think this is less for a "real" tech job and more for a "normal" job or a code monkey position where you really just need semi-competent people who can fill seats and do a modicum of work.

When I was younger I applied for a lot of jobs like that (supermarket, bookstore, data entry) and dealt with automated quizzes like that. None were quite that blatant, but even in my late teens I understood a lot of the questions were about risk assessment.

So it stands to reason that a huge concern with this was keeping insurance premiums down.

German here. Facebook gave a private company (Bertelsmann/Arvato) that works directly for the government free reign to delete/censor as they see fit.

The laws regarding hate speech are so blurry that it practically gives them permission to remove anything they want and that's exactly what they do. They don't only delete content that is strictly against the law, but also content that is government critical, because it "incites public unrest".

They also remove content that promotes other political parties.

Indeed. The closest I came to what I need was a proof-of-concept I did - printing source code to PDF and using Adobe Reader's annotation tools. Wasn't exactly convenient without a good ability to switch between multiple source files, but could be made to work. I'd love to have such browsing/annotation tool I could take with me to a park, to browse code and think about it while on a walk, without continuous distractions of the office / Internet connection.
Actually this could be a good platform for generating licensing algorithms that would be included in commercial software. This level of obfuscation would really be hard to crack by reverse engineers that produce cracks/keygens.

>While it sounds good, it's pretty bullshit to say the war on drugs is about financing dictators.

You're missing the point. Drug sales can be monopolized by the powers that be to generate off-the-books revenue streams. This can then finance any questionable activity they'd prefer not to be held accountable for.

This exact scenario has happened before - see the Iran-Contra affair.
Agreed. Many reports claim that e voting machines are in mostly poor voting locations, which could basically explain the 'discrepancy': http://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-election-machines-idUS...

But controlling for everything is almost impossible to be perfect: designated location vs county wide, income, race, education, Trump/Clinton modeled support.

You'd have to pull actual voting returns by individual for those voting locations and states, and then have a good vote file. Then you can start to control for those variables and I would bet almost everything I have that doing so would reduce any irregularity these scholars are using as an argument that the election was somehow hacked.
When groups secede, it is usually for nationalistic reasons.

I'm saying secession leads to a lot of geopolitical instability and usually violence and loss, for very little gain.

I think multiple conflicts would arise if California tried to secede from the US. The first would be between the secessionists and federal forces. If the secessionists did not have the support of a foreign power, US federal forces would win, and even then...

The second conflict would be between the "leavers" and "remainers" within California, where the remainers would initiate their sub-secessions from the breakaway state of California. Here you can imagine the awful process of Partition in India, for example; or the Serbian minority in Bosnia.

And while everyone in CA is thinking they should be self-determining, we would see other political fractures. North v south. The coastal cities v the interior.

Delay-line memories from the 60's: storing 100 bits as a wave in a wire
Are you looking for something akin to `git blame`? Github & Bitbucket both provide a gui for this.

Something even closer to what you're asking for... in github hit the 'history' button on a file (next to blame) and you'll get the commits which affected it. Hit the 7 character commit-id and you'll be taken to the diff of that change, jumped specifically to the file in question.
It's cool! I've been wondering too, since it's been an eye opener without equals finding out just how wrong I was. I think there were multiple lines of reasoning going on:

- "I don't even use that many logins."
I do. I just abused 'reset password via email'.

- "I distrust the cloud provider's opsec."
Seriously? I'm a self taught amateur. Get a grip guy.

- "What if they give my passwords to the NSA?"
... at this point I want to slap myself.

- "How can it be secure if it's easy to use?"
I blame PGP for this one...

So I guess many things. In the end it was the usual mix of uninformed bias, weariness against third parties in security, being very wrong and the assumption that security needs terrible UX.

As I said, I never looked back. I've even sat down with friends and family, explained the concept and turned their '$catsname$birthyear' passwords they used for absolutely everything into security they wouldn't ever hope to achieve otherwise. And they're all so freaking happy, too.

For their master passwords I used the 'correct horse battery staple' approach and nobody has a problem remembering one of those, especially if it's in their native language.

So, yup, you're right in every way. I didn't know better.

The anecdote could very well be true. The level of ignorance and arrogance behind the iron curtain in many ways was unbelievably beyond absurd.

And remember Thatcher's 'deregulation' was all within the context of what was already a fairly capitalist system to begin with.

When the Berlin wall fell, a lot of E. Germans crossed in to W. Germany - and when they entered the grocery stores, and saw all the amazing produce - fruit out of season, so many varieties of packaged goods - they were in shock and tears. They had been lied to their whole lives, told that they had 'the best' products and services and quite literally believed that their system was absolutely superior. This is the plebes mind you, I'm sure a lot of younger types had some idea of what they were missing out on.

My friend grew up in Poland - they had 3 flavours of ice cream 'vanilla' 'chocolate' and 'pink'. And none of the other soviet states had more than either choco or vanilla - so they thought there were 'rich' compared to the other states. But they didn't fathom that other flavours even existed ...
I think this is a reductionist point of view. There are bazillions of cases in which is not true. Female lions for example.

Right! That's a compiler designed to be used as a service! Most compilers are usually in a terrible hurry to build that executable before people start playing with light sabers or thinking about new programming languages [1].

I first thought about this when working on UnderC, a hopelessly over-ambitious C++ interpreter. Functions could be recompiled, because there was an indirect reference to the actual code. And this is of course exactly how Lisp people used their compiler. (The 'image' reference of course is to Smalltalk)

>> Currently you cannot run Python 2 inside the Python 3 virtual machine. Since I cannot, that means Python 3 is not Turing Complete and should not be used by anyone.

> I stopped there.

The author is - quite obviously - staying the Python 3 VM should run Python 2 code, in the same way the JVM and CLR run other languages. That the Python 3 VM doesn't run Python 2 code - and that the Python maintainers apparently say it can't - means the Python 3 VM isn't Turing complete.

This is nonsense obviously, but it's a way of pointing out that the claim that the Python 3 VM can't be made to run Python 2 code is also nonsense.

This is very, very obvious. Yet HN have gone nuts and rather than discussing the points brought up - why doesn't the Python 3 VM run Python 2 code? - you instead make the laughable claim that the author doesn't know what Turing completeness is.

The author even explicitly states they've already created a Python 3 version of their work and HN accuses the author of ulterior motives: "having an out of date work".

It's like HN have gone out of their way to cut out quotes from the article and not actually bother to read it.

The author is a better programmer I am and also than most in the thread. They're also over the programming mob mentality that sometimes appears on HN and I can very much see why in the responses to this articles.
