> ... and carries almost no cost/risk for each individual in the lynch mob.

I see a big cost if the person downvoted can downvote those of the lynch mob. Sure, the lynch mob could downvote the downvote of the victim but I don't see that potential vicious cycle being a winning strategy for suppressing an unliked idea.

Wrt the karma rich individual. This change wouldn't help the "rich get richer" because it only opens up the algorithm for additional downvotes. Therefore, the only result that could occur would be everyone, including the rich, having a zero effect on their karma, or a lessening of it.

Wrt slashdot, personally, I could never stand meta-moderating. It's so boring to read random comments about a topic that you are not interested in. Maybe it's different for you, but I'd like to know how popular meta-moderation is.

Also, the results speak for themselves. Slashdot has gone down in quality a lot over the years, the signal to noise ratio is currently very low. I hardly ever browse the comment section there, anymore. Maybe for you this is different?
>- Connection to devices will be done via an Intel Compute Card slot with a new standard connector (USB-C plus extension)

>- USB-C plus extension connector will provide USB, PCIe, HDMI, DP and additional signals between the card and the device

That sounds pretty interesting. Hoping they don't keep these priced too far above the hobbyist price point.
These both happen to be included as components in Sage, which was why I didn't mention them separately.
In the case of epoll(), using the edge-triggered interface it will only report an event when the status of the monitored file descriptor changes (eg from "not readable" to "readable"), whereas when using the level-triggered interface it will continue to report the event as long as the monitored file descriptor remains in the relevant state.

For example, if a socket is reported as readable but you only read some of the available data before calling epoll() again, with the edge-triggered interface it won't be reported as readable the next time you check, but with the level-triggered interface it will be.
Is that the code size or the app size? I'm not familiar with objective c, but that sounds unreasonable for a build time for a small app, are the not doing any sort of incremental builds?
That may make sense, but appears to be mostly wrong.

The linked paper doesn't draw conclusions (it's just a survey paper), but does point to studies showing a positive correlation between cancer, rapid growth, and height.

> And there is: good is that which improves the reproductive fitness of the entities that practice it.

You can make a barometer for morality out of anything. I could make a theory where "greed is good", to quote Gordon Gekko. But that wasn't my point; rather, my point was that there is a Good, with a capital G, that transcends any artificial barometer. In virtue ethics, this is called "flourishing".

> As long as we're doing thought experiments here's one for you: suppose God told you that it was OK to force people to eat their own children. Would that make it in fact OK? Or is there some moral standard that transcends God that makes it not OK to do certain things even if God says it's OK? (BTW, in case you don't recognize it, this question was first raised by Plato in a famous dialogue called Euthyphro. It's worth reading. And BTW2, if you think that this example is too extreme you should read Jeremiah 19:9.)

The argument is actually Aristotle's, Plato just wrote it down, but yes I'm very familiar with it. It's cute, but I kind of like Ockham's counter-argument. He argues that the only "rule" God is bound by is the rule of non-contradiction. That means that even God can't make "square circles" or "a ≠ a". This doesn't mean he's not omnipotent, just that there's some logical consistency to what is possible. If you buy that premise, then God would never tell someone to do something immoral, as God is the embodiment of all that is good, virtuous, holy, etc.

What you're citing from Jeremiah is a prophecy, and those are notoriously complex to decipher (and much is lost in translation). Admittedly, I haven't studied Jeremiah for a while, but if I remember correctly, some of it is metaphorical.
Yeah, same here.

If the paywall can't be bypassed a website won't get linked anywhere and will lose most of it's traffic. The biggest media sites in the world struggle to make this model work.
If you're not into wine, a lot of this kind of stuff seems like it is probably bullshit, but it's not (necessarily).

Something I can't recommend enough even if you only have a passing curiosity is to find a wine tasting or event where most variables are held constant within the selection. One of my favourite wineries in Western Australia holds an annual Cabernet tasting with 20 Cabernets of the same vintage from around the world. When you hold the varietal and year constant and you still experience a remarkable range of different tastes, it really helps you to understand how wine experts can do what they do. It's very easy to differentiate wines when tasted one after the other like this, and wine experts/enthusiasts (in addition to their more refined palates) are simply able to make the same kinds of discriminations based on their experience rather than having all the options in front of them.

This would kill composition. If my reader were a tls.Conn wrapping a net.TCPConn, what would it mean to be ready? Does every io.Reader now need to be an io.ReadyReader? How can a framed Reader know if it's ready without holding a buffer?
Quad core + 512MB of RAM. Now it just needs HDMI out and we've got a quite capable portable computer on our wrists.
The problem with vsync is if the game would be 59 fps on a 60hz monitor, it's going to be presented at 30 fps because it's going to barely miss the vsync every frame. This creates large fps instability when the game runs around the monitor frequency.
That's great progress! I clearly remember a lot misinformed tweets doing the rounds before you got there.
Does a dot->gis conversion exist? Would anyone aside from me want such a thing?

I'd like to render complex graphs with Mapnik, as I do for OSM (which is just a graph after all).
And select() is still a perfectly good option for situations where the number of FDs involved is constant, or at least stays small. For instance: for networking in an X11 application, using a select()-based event loop is much simpler than creating a thread for each socket.
You have any examples? I've always thought a todo app was too lacking, but haven't thought of a good slightly tougher example
It's octagonal in plan. Gems are sometimes cut to have that shape, though I don't think anyone would associate it with diamonds.
I would argue that in some cases (certainly not all), a little bit of strategically placed "wow" may be vital for some startups to grow - small things that make users love a product and show others. The vast majority of users will not sympathize with the reasons a developer would choose to use something like a web view in a native app.
So, coding algorithms and data structures in a white board?
How do you handle terms of use and privacy policies? Is it something that you need to hire a lawyer for?
The well-known PIC16C84 microcontroller was introduced in 1993 and included 1K of 14bit EEPROM code memory. I don't know how difficult it would be to include EEPROM in the FE310, but any 1993 patents have already expired, and even small EEPROM is very useful in many cases because it avoids the need for external memory. If Flash can't be included in an open design then EEPROM would be better than nothing.
As much as I hate to admit it, he doesn't have the charisma to win.

Grand Challenges in Sociotechnical Cybersecurity: A Recap
This is fantastic. I admire this lifestyle. I want to be doing something similar in ten years. Living off the land and building digital products.
For end users I would agree. However:

I many technical discussions, the man page becomes the compelling argument.
MHL is not based on USB, only runs over the same cabling, so that wouldn't work (unless for some totally crazy reason the watch has the necessary hardware, totally unused)
There's even more work to be done on the WordPress front (and PHP in general for that matter): making automatic updates secure even if the server gets hacked.

https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/39309

https://github.com/paragonie/sodium_compat

I'm currently writing a pure-PHP libsodium polyfill that, once audited, will be proposed to shore up the security of PHP projects the whole world over. Among other things, this means that everyone will be able to adopt Argon2i for password hashing even if they support PHP 5.2.4 like WordPress does.

Ideally, everyone would get in the habit of updating to the latest versions more rapidly. But when 27% of the Internet runs software that refuses to modernize, that becomes a huge risk to the rest of the Internet.
And, they are both very tightly integrated with Sage via C library interfaces (between Python and Pari/GAP), which took many years of pain to properly write and debug. I wrote the first versions of these interfaces, and Jereon Demeyer and Nils Bruin massively improved and rewrote them over the years. Much core functionality in Sage fundamentally relies on Pari and GAP in order to work efficiently.
Should I build this?
There isn't a full podcast-in-a-box solution that I can find. Many of them are focused on recording, or hosting, but none do a Good job of combining them the way YouTube does with videos, or even Tumblr for that matter.

Looked at podbean, tryca.st and others.

IANAA but generally if they're just processing payments then GAAP revenue would only be the difference between cash in and what they immediately pay out. Think of it in terms of facilitating a transaction and taking a cut of what flows through their hands.
but it's not unduly dangerous to ride on city streets, even in large cities.

I love cycling (I cycle a lot), but unfortunately this isn't true. In the US, you are roughly twice as likely to die as in a car[1]. It is much, much, much safer than motorcycling! (Somewhat old data, though)

Patreon requires you to develop a dedicated following and commit to putting out regular content. The Flattr model would allow non regular content creators to be rewarded based on individual pieces of content.

I tend to agree with the comments above that the Flattr model doesn't work, but I think it would certainly be ideal for a lot of people creating content on the side if it did.
> Serious question, if I submitted a patch for the man page detailing the content of this myths page, is there a chance it might go somewhere and put somewhat of an end to some of this?

I would say go for it. It would probably make some difference (assuming the patch were accepted). People do frequently quote the man page when arguing about this issue.
I was hoping it was going to be a standard smartcard format with a general purpose Intel/Linux system inside.
It's one of the simplest things ever. Problem is the docs. Could be reduced to a readme. Too much ado about a tiny simple module. Just look at the code. It's nothing.

But it also does nothing much.

There is no guarantee either way. The safest guarantee are the resources under your control - given the government doesn't confiscate your savings account, which I wouldn't rule out.

People wonder why bitcoin is rising. It's because their competition is total crap. Government issued security is no security at all.

Yeah, hangouts itself is a completely free service. I am not familiar with too many others doing this.

I've heard a couple other stories like ours. One I remember specifically was a company with a 50/50 mix, they did ALL meetings from their own desks on a hangout so that everyone had the same presence, the remote people didn't feel left out, because everyone has to fight for the same one audio track.

As for bandwidth, it hasn't been anything that we've been troubled by. Been using it for nearly 2 years now. The client on the remote machines has some hiccups from time to time and is somewhat of a resource hog. But if you keep it in the background it isn't too bad.
That is not the source, that's just their chromium patches.
No source, no deal.
i wouldn't say 30 is an early age. it is young but i was referring to people who get shackled at 22 before they actually fully develop.
Fellow upstater (grew up near Utica) here to confirm that this is common knowledge.
Don't use it. I used something called JS stack from scratch (it's a github repo). You set it all up but along the way it teaches you everything. It worked perfectly. The only JS I'd done before that was Backbone stuff and requireJS.
Websites are just like apps. They need to be built, people need to discover them, create accounts, etc.

What complication of the current process would your product solve? I'm not all that familiar with the typical podcast workflow, but to me it seems the connection between recording/editing and publishing is just "upload an audio file", which doesn't seem like a big issue, so there is probably more to what you are planning integration-wise?

With test boards, too. They cost an arm and a leg but just saying it was put into production & even available. Same, proven I.P. w/ GPL license could've been printed on 350nm or 500nm in a shuttle run to get a cheap microcontroller.

On side of riskier ones, there was Plasma MIPS and Amber ARM that might have been turned into ASIC's. Less risky, but less supported, OpenRISC was turned into one. RISC-V is best contender right now far as most openness and industry support. Great there's boards with some of them. Leon is still ahead in terms of features & performance on something you can actually buy. I still think someone should try converting the Leon3 + libraries to a RISC-V to get its I.P. as a starter pack.

Do you have a 401k?
One interesting thing from the aforementioned (or below-mentioned) wikipedia entry for the Amana Colonies is that they adopted the notion of a basic income (of $25-$50) to be spent at village stores, keeping the money within the community.

This is one take on UBI I haven't seen before--directly channeling collective money back into the local economy.
This may be a tangent, but I feel like pointing out that I, for one, have recently become more aware of the fact that a graph is really just a binary relation.

This is not discussed much in all the talk about social networks. It's always the graph (the "one") that's foregrounded, rather than the multiplicity of edges, each a relation.

I know this is mathematically an obvious thing, but surely the relational perspective is more amenable to generalization. We should make more of it.
Probably still tastes like spoiled grapes.
Hey don't knock it I've made a boatload of money (as it enabled me to literally buy a really boat) because of these decisions.

Converting "hybrid" apps to native apps is like the Y2K goldmine of our time

So true. A few weeks ago my TI v200 battery died and I went looking to "modernize my algebra workflow" (usually limited to multi parameters `solve` or `simplify` operations or matrix math).

I never heard of Maxima (and never went looking). It works fine (without even checking the manual). I see where TI stole their syntax from. I will need to read the manual to figure out how to input more complex equation systems into `solve`. I tried a few frontend. I prefer Cantor, but it has some visual bugs I reported to the Gentoo and KDE bug trackers. I might solve them at some point. The default terminal UI is cool, but not very readable and keyboard navigation isn't as fine as other solutions (it and looks fugly, and Lispy languages are unreadable (((()))))
This is an artificial limit. On many systems it can handle way more FDs than that if you use it directly, bypassing wrappers. Libev does that I believe, so any server on top of libev can use unlimited select.

This seems like a much more advanced version of EOMA68, a compute card project re-using old PCMCIA connectors.

I feel like USB-C gives much more flexibility: it has a well-defined configuration enumeration protocol that's already supported everywhere. There's a lot more options for extensibility and future-proofing with USB-C.

With the onboard storage this is one step closer to my dream: the ability to plug a phone's compute module into a desktop to give me access to a more powerful GPU, extra storage, etc.

My big question: will this card format be an open standard, or will Intel be locking it down?

I can't tell if you're missing the point deliberately or not, so forgive me if I just politely assume that you were raised in a national park by a family of confused barn owls and have never encountered a group of humans before.

Being political and thinking about the consequences of your actions are not the same thing and frequently conflict. Being philosophical and making a positive change in the world are not the same thing and often conflict. Appearing philosophical as a means of being political is a common tactic, and often leads to the aforementioned conflicts.

All of which is a long winded way of telling you that sometimes people stir up drama not because it's the surest path to a good technical or social outcome but rather because they can't be bothered to put in an honest hour's work and would rather snipe from the sidelines about things that are neither here nor there but can be made to appear so if sufficiently determined.

Ah. I see what you mean. Thanks for the clarification.
I started coding in BASIC with a Sony MSX in the 80s, and professionally since the late 90s on all sorts of things (web, desktop, video games, etc). Mobile is BY FAR the most frustrating experience I've ever had.

This could be easily solved if HTML5 apps were first class citizens in Android and iOS like they are in Chrome OS.

Relying on third party solutions like Cordova, Crosswalk, is frustrating.

Solutions like ReactNative and NativeScript are also unsatisfying and both iOS and Android should offer a similar solution (native engine + scripting behaviour) without relying on third parties. This is common practice in the video game industry and prevents 15 or more minutes of compile times.

Diversity and competition is good as a creative process to discover value. However, this doesn't scale very well, and unification is eventually necessary. My position might sound extreme, but I intend it more as a guideline than as a law that should be enforced. I'm 100% in favor of free market and opposed to coercion.

I think that people don't believe or even consider that such a system could exist, which explains why nothing of the sort exists today. I'm interested in starting a discussion to evaluate possible approaches to this problem.
commenting works better for me as well
