> what's a reasonable heuristic for conducting private business?

You need to do a threat analysis.

I did not immediately find any good introductory resources via a quick Google search, but try it yourself. Very very briefly, it involves identifying the threats and their possible consequences, then working on either removing the former or minimising the latter.

Be aware that this is not merely a technological process. It is primarily a social one.
This article is a few months old. The technology is now being commercialized by the same authors, as Jeeva Wireless: http://www.jeevawireless.com/
Does AR explicitly exclude camera+screen? I always thought that stuff like pokemon go and any similar "paste some 3d over a camera feed in real time" stuff counted as augmented reality.

I'm not sure that there will be a significant first mover advantage here. Everybody thought that the Oculus CV would be the only headset to get because the DK2 was pretty cool, then the Vive was released and people realized how important motion controllers were for immersion, and Oculus got creamed. I think that there will be bits of tech like this for each generation of VR/AR, one small set of features that's obviously better, which will win the generation.
Yeah, can't wait till my CV and project descriptions (not hosted there) static Jekyll site is somehow insecure and dangerous.

[edit] I'll guess I'll have to find a new host then, since Github pages doesn't support https on custom domains. Perhaps Netlify, seems to support Github hooks.
"Your users can't be easily MITM attacked when they visit your site" is a pretty big benefit to every site out there.

Are you aware that the guy behind this signal app sold his previous "secure messaging" thing to Twitter?
You are forgetting half of the benefit of HTTPS. Not only is content kept secret, but it is also kept unmodified.

Even if your don't care about secrecy, you should use HTTPS to ensure your content doesn't have ads or malware injected into it by your ISP (which happens) or a WiFi hijacker (which happens). If a user of yours sees an ad or gets a virus from someone injecting it in your website, they are going to blame you.

HTTPS protects the site owner just as much as the site user.
I'm guessing you're the third author on that paper? How does what Google did differ from what you did, apart from scale? At least they cited you, right... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
And on the typography front:

* Properly hyphenates
Everyone as a parent, but not everyone has a child. In both instances they are comparing "parents" a subset of the population. To "people" the total population.

Economic pressures can affect the decision to have children. Especially once birth control became widespread.
I don't think that level of black is a good thing for AR. If you can't distinguish the augmentation from reality, I'd argue that's a bad thing.
I thought they had given up a couple of years ago on the gimbal-mounted fiber with the piezo collar. They raised the last round to buy a MEMS fab which I assumed was to do a DLP-like thing down a fibre laminate.
I'd wait until the Lisp interpreter works significantly and then write reasonable code in Lisp like:

(it (atom 'foo) t)

If it fails, it just says something like:

test failed: (atom 'foo) returned nil; expected t.

So no need to have a string there. Save the "blub-level" testing for things that are not testable through Lisp. (Or, really, things you are justified in not wanting to expose such that they are testable.)

(Sure, it could be the case that both the interpreter are wrong, and the atom function are wrong such that the test passes. That level of breakage isn't likely going to pass much of a significantly detailed test suite.)
Massive automation of tasks performed by humans is pretty depressing because it indicates that some combination of technology focus/funding can't aim higher than what people are doing already.
Wouldn't the difference in 5-10 minutes not be the reason for the lack of fuel, though? I would guess a 4 hour flight would have enough fuel for at LEAST 5.5 hours if they couldn't land at an airport and had to be diverted to another one (right before landing).
You're right. I wouldn't import a function as a single letter module if I was only using it once or twice, but I do think there's value in some cases. decimal.Decimal("1.2345") or even d.Decimal("1.2345") can be cluttering.

Going by the guide, you would do 'import pprint; pprint.pprint("foo")'...which, at least in my experience, I've never seen. It's always "from pprint import pprint" or "from pprint import pprint as pp" It could be that I work with slobs.
Can anyone name a company that raised significant money pre-launch in a party round and that turned out okay?

Color, Clinkle, Theranos, Magic Leap... they all have that in common. I'd be interested if there are counter examples.

Our aim is to transform finance. We are building tools for people to operate new network technologies that will produce a radically different economy. Our first product is Sherwood. A new blockchain based crowdfinance service. Sherwood is a social platform for the easy creation, use and tailoring of smart peer-to-peer financial instruments and agreements that leverage the power of the Ethereum blockchain to create secure, modular and novel interactions within and across networks of users at every scale. Sherwood enables entirely new ways of opening joint opportunities, sharing stakes and ownerships, risks and rewards, generating a new palette of financial/social relationships. It is a place for rapid building & deployment of little DAOs.
Looking for: Full stack developer, JavaScript, with knowledge on Angular, Django (Python), and MySQL appreciated.
We also have more financial instruments technology in the money market and capital market space in the pipeline. Candidates with experience of financial algorithm (or just algorithm) are encouraged too.

If you're serving them over plaintext http, then they're already insecure. How dangerous that is might be debatable, but there's no doubt that it's insecure.
Not too long, but it's baity, so we need to change it as per the site guidelines (https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html). We'll see what we can do.

Edit: ok, we changed it to language from the first sentence—often a source of lesser baitiness.

It doesn't really sound right still, even after that correction. "Magic Leap is actually way further behind than expected" would be more correct.
I take it you've never used 802.11b. You were lucky to get a single YouTube video at 480p to load without downgrading, let alone two HD streams.
> I was always behind Magic Leap with the logic that "big investors like a16z google alibaba wouldn't get suckered"

Here's a few clarifications that might change your thinking about funding announcements.

Google Ventures passed on Magic Leap. Google Capital passed on Magic Leap. Sergey was enamored so Google's own balance sheet provided most of the B round. Word is that A16Z put only $3MM in -- basically enough to get some info rights and not piss google off.
Yup! we are thinking along these lines. Please see the baby step on discovery that you can use today called "Deep Link Discovery" https://developers.google.com/actions/distribute/invocation-...
For what it's worth, you only need one file to be included. Any other files will be included and translated as necessary, so the only file that needs the .in extension is the root of the serde types.
I'm seeing the infosec community divide into several groups, and it's equal parts amusing and alarming:

* The "everything is fucked and will never get better" group, which I'd put your message into

* The "everything is fucked but you're not being targetted by Mossad" group - at least these people do threat modelling.

* People who are actively helping journalists in dangerous areas (see my first point)

I agree with lots of things in your message but I don't think it's helpful. Would you say we should drop back to HTTP because there are lots of ways to break HTTPS?

There are people doing fantastic work even on closed platforms like Android and iOS. People are looking in detail at what's running on it - mostly thanks to the jailbreaking and rooting communities. Everything will be OK, it's just going to take a lot longer than you'd like it to.
The idea of a case being an analytical framework is intriguing. Care to elaborate? (Should I just go read it? Does it propose some kind of multi-pronged test?)

Another solution: "Thank you for purchasing this license to view Hamilton. This is NOT a ticket. This is a non-transferable license to view the performance of Hamilton on 2016-12-21 at 9:00 pm in-person. This license constitutes a contractual agreement between the original purchasing party and the producers of Hamilton. By purchasing this license, the purchasing party agrees to be bound by this license. Only the original purchasing party may use this license to view Hamilton... etc." ;-D
So, how do I manage a website where I allow users to embed arbitrary URLs as image, so I don’t even know which protocol they’ll use, but where I want HTTPS for the page itself?

Will I just have to deal with the yellow "mixed content! insecure!" warning? Will I have to proxy requests?

There’s many forums like that in the web.
Again, the problem is not that writing to file descriptors is blocking. The problem is that writing to the screen is very slow. Writing to a file is just as blocking, but you'll block for much less time, because writing to a file is not slow.

You'd be fine to post some :)

These things often come in clusters, though we usually penalize posts that are from a string of copycat or follow-up posts that don't add new information. I have the impression that this one does, though, albeit cribbed from a better source.
> The suggestion that the motivation for this article is profit for the NYT or Moxie is quite destructive.

No, that's literally how it works. Media need to sell copy (clicks these days) and companies need to get coverage. And that's perfectly OK if companies are acting ethically and journalists and editors are doing due diligence.

The person that you mention has good connections in the media and uses them to self-promote and promote the tat he sells.

I've never met anyone who gets sick based entirely off vergence-accommodation conflict. I've certainly talked to people who claimed it was an issue but would happily go to a 3d film so I assume they were misattributing the cause of their sickness. Maybe having the peripherals line up for 3d films is enough.

I'd be interested to hear some testimonials on how it affects people though. One of the interesting things about VR is finding out the myriad of different ways people are sensitive to small phenomena.
Brilliant article. Larry Page isn't impressed with Fiber because "it wasn’t game-changing enough,” and that “There’s no flying-saucer shit in laying fiber.” Definitely gives you a peak into the thought process of this giant.

This is a common argument for basic income and, even though you say "Do not take the State as something socialist or communist", your argument is the same as it is for socialism and communism.

You say, "Do not take the State as something socialist or communist, taking from someone and giving it to someone for free; no, this is provided by us, the population, for us, the population."

---

Here's the problem.

Can you think about what, exactly, "the population" is? Is it tangible? Is it a singular physical entity?

The answer is no, "the population" is merely a collection of individuals! Individuals, of course, exist-- they are tangible, singular, physical entities. You are one. I am one. Individuals exist.

Populations, on the other hand, are abstractions.

My point is this: when an abstraction needs to be represented, it cannot do so itself. In this case, individuals are required to represent the population because, well, individuals are the only ones with the actual ability to do so.

Under your proposed system in which the State provides basic income to each and every individual, who decides how much each is given? Who will be the ones to actually control the means of production; and who will be the ones to actually control distribution of goods? Only some will.

If you think democracy as it exists today already performs poorly in representing the ENTIRE population (i.e., representing each individual fully to their individual desires) (think of the surprising amount of people who feel conned by the election results), then just imagine the extent by which people will likely feel when the State is responsible for just about E-V-E-R-Y-T-H-I-N-G in E-V-E-R-Y-O-N-E-'-S life!

>Is there any AR headgear which displays the real world optically and can selectively darken the real world?

They've said they have a solution, and it's more optical illusion than optics. They don't darken the real world, but will make you perceive something similar.

And I would be really interested to know why people are downvoting a perfectly reasonable question.
One person's shovel of shit is another's gem in the rough; and Valve wins because it accepts this.

Does anyone know what happens in the eventuality of Mark's death or incapacity? I don't think control like this is inherently wrong, as it seems to have worked well for Google, but I do wonder what happens after the founders die. These rather extraordinary provisions for control of public companies make sense when being granted to specific, exceptional individuals, but less so as a general power that can be transferred.

So, does anyone know what would happen in that case?
I've taken online classes where they give you unit tests that use one set of inputs/outputs, when grading they'd use the same tests, but have a different set of inputs/outputs.

Early on there was one or two cases where subtle problems came up because the public set and private set accidentally tested things slightly differently, but the TA / prof was quick to respond.
I don't think it's a particularly wise idea for big companies to try to emulate startups or startup incubators.

A key thing about startups is that they don't have much riding on them. If they fail, you can just dissolve the company, and the worst thing that happens is that people lose money and people lose jobs.

If a big corporation tries to do the same thing, there are a lot more encumbrances that elevate the risk levels quite a bit. There's a mothership that wants to protect its reputation, there are internal social pressures to start throwing money at problems, there is risk of tort situations that originated in the "startup" having wide-ranging repercussions throughout the company. No sane company is going to look at that minefield and conclude that it really is safe to sit back and let people do the "move fast and break things" thing without having to worry about meddling suits. The risk/reward for shareholders just isn't there.
There is also the issue of population growth rates.

Future generations CANNOT keep growing like that. Be it by directed reproduction limits or global resource wars/pollution/plagues/extinction from the preceding the population will shrink.
I think a counter example would be Google Streeview.

I remember when Apple launched their own Map service I was thinking that there is no way they were going to tackle something in the real-world "meat-space" the same way Google did to produce Streetview and gather improved map data.

They literally put a fleet of cars on the street and drove down a majority of the roads, big and small, in the United States and then in many other countries.
That's a hack. Not "the way Node is designed". Specially because Node didn't design much, they just took V8 with its own limitations and ran with it. While those limitations are acceptable for V8's original domain they are not for server applications.

Brilliant internals? Maybe (never checked). Worthless product that solves nothing? Definitely.

Developing great systems or internals, then trying to find a use for them is one thing. Google Glass was a crap product without a purpose (from the beginning).

That aside, Google doesn't know what to do with clever, ingenious, or well-Engineered systems/tools/libraries/components/etc. They'll wrap them in sh-t, then use them to try to promote it.

Even the way they try to promote their products is laughable. It sounds like poorly done attempts to spin absolute crap to make it seem as though it's something else. Why don't you just have what you're pushing not be absolute crap? Can't do that? Don't know how?

I fail to see what was innovative or groundbreaking about Google Glass and the other crap they pitch as being such. Driverless cars? Is the driving of a car the real problem, or even a problem?

Driverless cars sound cool in a way (would grab my attention), but the technology has long been created. What's on display now is a lack of ability to think about or come up with ways to take such technology and put it to use.

What they're also making clear is that they're investing not because they see the many potential future applications, but because they don't know and are just picking something to try to say "me too," or to have its failure clearly demonstrate the pointlessness of trying to innovate, or because this or that name is associated with it, etc.

They have no real idea what they are doing. They just do stuff.

Also, the moonshots are strange, because while they like making themselves seem progressive or innovative, they don't do anything without a "business reason."
