It's complicated. If I gave an obese person a bag of sugar or a kilo of lard she probably wouldn't enjoy these things. On the other hand some folk can eat luxury foods regularly without ill effect. It depends on personality and intent as much as upon specific foodstuffs and substances.

And are you sure about protein? Personally I experience a strong desire for meat if I haven't had any for a few days. The fulfillment of that desire creates a visceral pleasure. Furthermore I can't imagine giving up apparently innocuous items like tomatoes, either. For a few months perhaps but after a few years I'm sure I would pine at the memory of fresh juicy tomatoes.
It's irresponsible to make such a broad claim and back it up with really vague anecdotal evidence. Yes, there are a lot of lousy AV products that are at best a break-even for security, but there are some that don't suck and generally you have to pay for them - what a strange concept.

I'm not going to advocate for any particular vendor as I used to work for an AV company (and currently use a product from a competitor). But I can attest that I've used products that have caught threats that Windows Defender didn't, and many products also include a much more robust and configurable firewall.

It's annoying when someone else's lousy code breaks your own code. This happens to the sites I administer frequently, where we will randomly get blacklisted by some no-name AV product's web security feature. I understand the frustration when you have no control over this. But to conclude that all AV software is bad does not follow from the evidence given.

> I studied Scala and FP

> Bi-weekly we have a book club where we take turns presenting a topic from functional programming in Scala, functional reactive domain modelling and others.

I think this is precisely why a former eng director at Twitter is quoted as saying he'd do Twitter in Java if he started over again. You have to spend a lot of time studying Scala. This is a no-go for any big org that wants to be efficient at horizontally scaling up engineers.

It works great for small teams or orgs that don't need to hire engineers like crazy.

1. Electrolysis has landed, not true anymore.

2. 3. Yes, memory leaks still exist.

4. To prevent GUI overlap attacks and fake popups.

5. I bet there is an equivalent.

6. Very much no, though they are faster for sure.
>It's a bit more interesting wrt. most 9/11 hijackers being Saudis: I think it's pretty much confirmed at this point that it was a deliberate choice by al Qaida, attempting to deteriorate US-Saudi relations.

Saudis have a looooong history of funding all kinds of terrorist groups across the whole muslim world.
Which AV vendors are predatory? (Though Kaspersky makes me nervous).

What do you think about ESET?
This is a straightforward business deal. Saudi Arabia is a major arms client. Iraq is just a poor nation that the US smashed and its citizens are to be thrown as red meat to 'patriots'. Iran is irrelevant to the issue, but 'patriots' don't distinguish between varieties of dusky foreigner.
Poor guy thinks a follower saying they don't see his tweets is an indicator of a vast conspiracy against him by a large corporation.
Are you seriously equivocating the US Military which has specific RoEs and people who deliberately target civilians as a means to achieve their goals? That argument does not pass the smell test.

Iran has been sponsoring and supplying if not actively participating in terrorist attacks going back decades.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iran_and_state-sponsored_terro...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quds_Force#Activities

Anyone saying Iran does not participate in terrorism either has not read enough or is willfully blind.
This is the most authentic argument I have read so far on this subject. People do not care about vendors. People care about how they feel. For everything else going beyond the "You are safe!" popup (try to explain "DLL injection?" to your Granny! Okay, "blocking updates" she might understand) a user needs a far deeper understanding of what goes on under the hood of the OS, or practically any software based on said OS. "Uninstall AV software" does not make people feel safer, now that the narrative of "AV is making the Internet safer" is practically standard.
This is part of the game that must be played to win against the government of Iran, people of that country have been treated like pawns in a chess game for long, certainly this is not something new. While the outrage is understandable, policy should not be made based on how it makes people feel. Iran is a country that deserves so much more, but it is seized by a ruling elite that does not share its values. I wish people who show so much outrage against Trump would acknowledge the above and in that new light instead show their support for the people of Iran in this unfortunate situation that they find themselves in.
Same in Switzerland. Check out ETHZ or EPFL.
GP hit it on the head. Every node is globally addressable. Regarding the 464xlat, that's strictly to enable hosts in the internal network to communicate with external IPv4 only hosts. IPv6 is still used as the only internal transport, and primary external transport.

Probably product placement.
You never caring about politics is what ultimately put Trump in office.
Real-time market and opinion data generator Dalia raises €6.5M
Might be true for people who know what they're doing. However I've seen a decrease in the number of toolbars installed in my mom's computer since I've installed an antivirus.
This might sound like a crazy idea, but why not try applying to a few Israeli universities: Tel Aviv University, Weizmann Institute, Hebrew University and Technion are considered to pretty top notch for Computer science and have a few Turing award winners. You'd be surprised that Israeli academics tend to be very welcoming of students from all over the world.
The other advantage of having everything in the same school is that it makes moving up (and down) in the sets a lot easier. A kid who is right on the cusp between set 1 and set 2 in math can be put into set 1 for a term and see how it works out. Or a kid who, for whatever reason, starts slipping can be moved down a set and given some extra support. If these changes required moving schools then that will never happen.
>There is literally nothing that can be done about it for the next 4 years

Actually mass protests to the level of e.g. the French May of 68 might very well bring down a government.

But that is for a determined population.
In Europe, there are many excellent universities and many countries with visas for phd students. Just come to Europe. Once your phd is bagged, the US will have another president, and you can go there (unless you like Europe too much by then).
Something ruffled your feathers. Why do you want Firefox to be abandoned rather than improve it's security? For my and most other's mundane browsing needs Firefox _is_ secure enough. Mozilla is the only browser vendor actually innovating with Rust, Servo/Quantum and WebRender as examples, the first two give me hope that Mozilla really can tighten the ship and make a more secure browser than Chromium would be.
The UX what now?
Technically congress or the supreme court can overturn executive orders, and this has happened in the past.
Most people forget the malware on hacked website. Browsers won't give you a warning. (OK. Chrome will show you a RED screen but not for all) They need not hack into your system. But they collected your login info, credit card. I even want to install one on my MacOS.

MS AV still too slow at the moment. In Windows 10, you could turn on Defender to run both AV at the same time.
What exactly is being won here?
The State Department has long called Iran "the most active state sponsor of terrorism", but as far as I know, the US has not been their target.

> Designated as a State Sponsor of Terrorism in 1984, Iran remained the most active state sponsor of terrorism in 2010. Iran’s financial, material, and logistic support for terrorist and militant groups throughout the Middle East and Central Asia had a direct impact on international efforts to promote peace, threatened economic stability in the Gulf, and undermined the growth of democracy.

Every country is a platform. When it attracts the best users it succeeds. When it doesn't, or even worse rejects them, it's bound to fail.
Seriously.

I actually thought the 'rapper' had some decent-power beat poetry going on, and measured up favourably against real-world artists (talk about backhanded compliments...)
I can't say much more than I'm sorry.

Remember: Donald Trump does not represent the will of the American people. He won the electoral college, but around 2.8 million more people voted for Clinton than voted for him. He does not represent our values, our morals, or our view of where the country should be going. He represents those straight white males who don't want to adapt to the future, who don't want to give up their power, and who don't recognize that America can only be successful when we help the world be successful.

I'll be honest, I think Trump is going to cost universities, labs, and businesses a lot of very smart people. I hope we'll be able to recover from the damage he's going to do, but I honestly don't know just how bad it will get.

They used to have a democracy until they tried to nationalize their oil industry. Then the CIA and British intelligence engineered a coup and installed a Shah that gave good oil prices.

What's more, as third party antivirus software becomes increasingly irrelevant, many of these companies resort to harmful and even actively malicious tactics to stay in business. On the more benign end, you see an increase in 'safe web browsing' and such tools that parse javascript while browsing and somehow attempt to make it.. safer, I guess. My main experience with these things is when they randomly decide to block bits of code on our sites, breaking functionality for no discernible purpose.

Far worse are the lengths that a company like AVG will go to to get and keep their software installed on your computer. Their browser toolbars essentially take all the dirty tricks they've apparently learned dealing with malware to.. build a piece of malware. Honestly whether it's active malice, incompetence, or lack of motivation I don't know, but I do know I've spent hours trying to extract their stuff from people's browsers. (I should say here that I fully expect someone reading this has managed to uninstall an AVG toolbar with no issues. They have multiple different auxiliary tools to their antivirus, and I'm not sure specifically which one(s) caused me trouble personally. It's also likely that they're only a _real_ pain in certain circumstances. But regardless, if you google something like 'how uninstall avg' or 'avg malware' I'm sure you'll find many more examples.)
Why would the US military care about selling weapons? They are made by private companies.
Can you make this available on other countries' stores as well? Specifically I'd love to see it on the German iOS AppStore.
Thanks, found it! It looks like these are the Last.fm recommendations?
People seem more upset that Trump is not letting people into the country than that Obama has been dropping bombs on 6 of these countries.

I'm not wild about the Trump immigration ban on these countries, but I really, really hope he ends these wars.
Yeah you're right when you mention the shift in use. Reminds me of people who use "begs the question" incorrectly (basically everyone and all the time) but how most people think of it now. Very pedantic though. (Pedantic is the HN norm though, so, when in Rome, do as the Romans do.)
Firefox still suffers from a lot of minor quality of life issues compared to other browsers, I don't know if it's neglect or weird internal politics but they add up to making firefox less attractive than the competition.

A few off the top of my head:

* Firefox doesn't respect Windows 10's titlebar accent colors

* No option to set a default zoom level for web pages

* Firefox for android ignores intent filters

The first two have addon or userstyle workarounds which makes it even more baffling that they have remain unsolved issues for years.
Regardless of the hijackers motives, Saudi Arabia is by far the worst country when it comes to exporting and supporting terror. Iran is an island of sanity by comparison, and there are no Shia terrorist organizations nowadays (Hezbollah are not terrorists - they don't blow up random civilians).
Oh you mean like, sugars and starches - the most toxic constituents of the modern diet.

You jump pretty readily to a conclusion that isn't in what's said. "Plants" covers a diverse group of foods, some of which are the most nutrient rich available to us.

You can eat nothing but potatoes, which are filled with starch, but a diet filled with plants is much more likely to involve a rich variety of very healthy foods. Some of these foods would be things like spinach, kale, carrots, beetroot, beans, sweet potatoes, blueberries, apples, bananas, strawberries, buckwheat, avocados, courgettes, onions and peppers.

There's definitely starch and sugars in these, but you'd be hard pressed to eat them to anything like a toxic degree. To get them to a toxic degree, you'd need to eat processed food in quantity, which isn't what the maxim, which is undoubtably glib, is suggesting you do.

I agree with your comment about food being used as yet another status symbol, and I generally find that a particularly unpleasant and tiresome way to treat something as essential as eating. I'd disagree that Pollan is the patron saint of foodies, though. He's perhaps the patron saint of plant-eating, slightly ascetic or vegan foodies. He's certainly not the patron saint of the paleo or keto crowd, both of which are very vocal and often produce very obnoxious members of the "food as status symbol" group.

Out of interest, what would you recommend as a good, healthful diet? As you can probably guess from my reply, I think Pollan's maxim, which is certainly glib, offers a good working basis for a healthy diet.
>All the states admitted to the union with one notable exception were territories controlled by the United States, and all were dominated by American citizens. These populations had nowhere else to go. Do you honestly think that Idaho was going to join Canada, or strike out on its own? Of course not.

They could have created a different union, or struck out on their own. The idea they had no other options is, well, ahistorical.

>There was no United States or national identity at the time. At best, it was like claiming to be a citizen of the European Union today.

Which bolsters whose point, yours or mine?
Well, he is a bit of a populist, so if you convince enough people, he'll probably go with the flow, on some things at least.
US fracking pissed Saudi Arabia off big time. The gov't didn't seem to mind.
The Iranians right to freedom and the control of the region and its resources.
This would be perfect for IPFS I think.
I am not saying Iran is not involved, I am just saying US is doing the same thing. Keep in mind, Iran is not doing the bombing herself, it supports groups that are doing the attacks. US is supporting groups and governments that killd lots of people. How they are different?
*WHOOP* *WHOOP* Pull over, shame police!

Not quite. Try again.

From 1990 forward I watched a trend of chemical leashes swallow up perfectly normal kids, to test subordination to parent/teacher/doctor control and extract bragging rights while keeping up with the Joneses. Loads of high school classmates got shamed by their parents into "just say no" prescription drug doublespeak, because B+ just isn't good enough.

Before there was the prescription opioid pill crisis, there was the prescription pep pill crisis, masquerading as the "you are mentally ill and need a chemical crutch to be normal" crisis. I didn't start that trend. I didn't invent it. I didn't make money off it.

Point your shame finger at the real enemy, if you can guess where to find it.
It is a feature [0].
Microsoft office products allow for "macros" which are Visual Basic code embedded within a document or a worksheet that can be used by developers to add extra functionalities to their MS files (e.g. validate all data in a work sheet after a user clicks a specific button in the worksheet).

Just like any programming language, it could be used maliciously, and there is no easy way to distinguish which macro-enabled file is safe and which isn't (without going through the code yourself prior to enabling the functionality)

That's a really loose interpretation of what this is.

It must be comfortable not being affected. You get to speak on everybody else's behalf and tell them they're not affected either.

"Microsoft AV products" aren't exempt from breaking things with poorly implemented features. MSE on Windows 7 makes games (specifically, fresh installs of StarCraft II, CS:GO and Overwatch) unplayable for me due to CPU usage spikes, apparently due to it thinking that various game executables and settings files are suspicious. Exempting the directories from scanning and disabling suspected malware sample submission had no effect, what finally worked was switching to school-provided Sophos Endpoint. Antivirus can get messy and intrusive no matter who does it.
Defender has the nasty habit of aggressively scanning new games I download off Steam. There are two occasions where it'll do it:

- While it's downloading it seems to scan each chunk. I have a gigabit connection, with defender off I can download at nearly full speed. With it on I can download at about 1MB/s.

- While the game loads a level. For example, the intro level to the new Deus Ex took over 10 minutes to load the first time. At that point I disabled defender entirely and just promised myself I would be careful. Naive, I know, but at least I can play my video games.

Ask HN: Do you use any sort of “function-code visual map”
I am currently using Visual Studio Code for doing web dev stuff. I'm finding it easy to get lost in my code. It just becomes convoluted/too much and I have to start over again and chunk things-write separate functions. I've also made really tiny text so I can "overall see" code. I've considered orienting my monitor vertically.

I was just thinking about a visual representation of the code and how it connects to other functions. It would be cool to see real-live execution like the code blocks light up or something as they "turn on". Like a circuit diagram or something. I don't know.

I'm not necessarily talking about those boxes with arrows pointing to other boxes (not a flow-chart) the ones you see when working with Java for instance.

Atom is cool but also uses more resources than Visual Studio Code, where Atom you could to me mod it easier since it's using familiar language eg. JavaScript versus something like C# or whatever VS Code uses.

I have junk computers so that's where I'm at right now.
Google even has a location in Germany so if you were planning on getting a PHD in the US and then moving into working for Google most likely you could take the same kind of path in Germany but without the tremendous education debt.
I've been on HN for years. Scala has been widely criticized with these exact same criticisms for years. These are all legitimate issues people have, even if you don't think they're valid.
And when a window was smashed in on that car, would the owner decry the impulse to damage property belonging to someone with different political leanings, or would the owner (as we saw in the Rodney King riots) be upset because he got his window smashed in when he wasn't even a Trump supporter?

I fear the latter.

Yes, but we find ourselves in this situation now, the current U.S. administration certainly had nothing to do with the coup. Bad decisions maybe were made but we cannot continue to blame U.S. policy as a whole over those mistakes.
Is functional programming overtaking the IT industry?
do you really interpret "mostly plants" as "eat a lot of potatoes and raisins" ?

"Eat fruit and vegetables" has been the suggestion every doctor I've seen gives, and until now I assumed everyone interpreted that to also include leafy greens and legumes.
I wonder what the world would like like if western nations hadn't meddled so much in other's affairs.

That would actually make a really good TV series: "What the World Would Have Looked Like - Episode 3: Germany Wins World War 2". Of course there are numerous theories for each, but that's ok, just state that at the beginning and say this is just one of many possible theories, it's just for fun. I'd watch that type of show for sure.

Hi all', I am graduated in mathematics. I studied a lot and also teached sometimes, but I am working as a programmer, I am not a teached, I teached to gain some money while I was studying.

I love math and I Can explain It to everyoneishappy, I have this superpotere I Can male people under stand also deeply advanced mathematics.

I noticed that a lot of people "hates" math but they like It, they have a bad Memory about Who teached them when they were young, so they say "i hate math" but they actually hate their first teacher.

As soon as somebody explain them math with Joy and without humiliation if they don't know, they really like It.

The point is that even the highest mathematician does not know, cause in math there Will Always bè misteriose.
I think that's a naive view of Trump "supporters". For instance, it seems like Iranian-Americans were split on Clinton v. Trump [0][1]. I've also talked to quite a few people who voted for Trump but do not agree with his stance on borders or immigration. Finally, depicting all the people who voted for Trump as ignorant rednecks is probably not conductive to dialogue.

Reusell: Turn your used devices into money
A quick word of advice... I have seen firsthand people in similar logistical situations in the middle of the PhD (though not quite precipitated from such dire geopolitical circumstances). If your admission was based on a recommendation of a faculty at the same institute get in contact with them as they may have contacts in others countries looking for similar students. If they are senior faculty they may even have dual appointments at institutes outside of the US.

If there are no leads on those fronts, I suppose I can just wish you good luck. Germany and Canada come to mind. There is France too if you can speak French.
at least we can use 'CONCURRENTLY' since 9.4 or so, which is already a bonus.
