There is nothing wrong with trying out Snapchat. Download the app.

As far as I know, there is no people discovery on Snapchat. To find people to add (so you can receive their snaps – or video messages), go on Instagram and check out user profiles. Snapchat users post their Snapchat usernames everywhere.

Familiarize yourself with the UI. It is quite confusing until you have a mental image of how the screens are linked so you know where you can swipe in which direction to get to the next screen.

From what I can see, Snapchat is dominated by teenagers. Everyone has an account, even if they don’t post, just to watch other people’s videos. The stuff is very mundane and gets boring fast if you are not actually friends with the people who post. There is a lot of posing and trying to look pretty. After a few weeks I deleted the app.
Interesting detail from the Google license exhibit:

Encryption Technologies. Google makes HTTPS encryption (also referred to as SSL or TLS connection) available. Google servers support ephemeral elliptic curve Diffie-Hellman cryptographic key exchange signed with RSA and ECDSA. These perfect forward secrecy (PFS) methods help protect traffic and minimize the impact of a compromised key, or a cryptographic breakthrough.

Hey 0bfus, we're working on a fancy performance metrics dashboard and status page to answer these questions! Also, we've done extensive research on pageload speed's effect on page rank, and we found that <25ms of incremental latency does not have any impact. We're working on a case study for the latter!
you can install win10 directly using your win7 license key if you've already upgraded. I would definitely try that.

It's what I did specifically because I've never trusted an OS upgrade. OS's are too complex for that to work reliably in my opinion.

Is the argument really that 'it could be worse'? I guess that argument theoretically can be used anywhere, but then what does it mean? Arguably, it's never been worse.

My strong belief is that lack of opposition makes things much worse than lack of advice.

As a side note, one radical advisor people are forgetting about in this discussion is National Security Advisor Michael Flynn.
Your subjective "desirable" qualifier leaves it open for you to no-true-Scotsman away any response as "not desirable", but I can show you several.

Sierra brought tabbed applications and a bunch of other end-user features [1]. As for the more technically minded, there's a new filesystem coming this year [2].

I won't defend Apple's treatment of Mac hardware recently, but the software itself does get regular updates for security, performance, and features, regardless of how one subjectively feels about them. Personally I think it's a rather visually ugly operating system and has weird quirks like awful keyboard shortcuts, and I'm mad that they removed a feature (the battery time remaining) but generally functions well for my specific use case.

Hey Ric, we'll be in touch!
So I resist, get arrested, taken to jail. My folks woken up at 6am on a weekend to come pick me up. When my parents try to hire a lawyer, they'll be informed of how reasonable suspicion and probable cause work, for an hourly fee. All because a cop did his job by investigating a minor who from his perspective could have been a runaway or someone stealing junk.

Now while I can foresee situations where a 13 year old could successfully resist a search of their body/property, but I can't see a lawyer counseling it in this situation. Then again, IANAL.
Should have been kept as a research project, and only launched for consumer devices when service workers and PWA's became mainstream, and also the new rendering techniques from servo are integrated into gecko. If we're lucky, web apps will be able to cover 50-80% of native app use-cases in the next 2-3 years. When Firefox OS was launched, it was clear they were simply not up to scratch to make a system like that viable. Especially for low performance devices.

I think you greatly underestimate the power of norms and normalization, specifically with regard to Trump.

It's a democracy. People see Kalanick act and will follow; and politicians will follow their constituents.
Not really, because as so many commenters have pointed out, the choice to use "antique" parts is more of a value judgement than a violation of natural law.

When in doubt, your best move is probably to see what Horowitz and Hill have to say. AoE3 has a lot of specific component recommendations.
RTJ also have an established brand - I can tell you 100% I only know of them because of their previous marketing, I've maybe heard one song. It's like how Radiohead did a pay-what-you-like for their album and it came out being viable, it only works because of their previous commercial success through more traditional routes. If they'd self-produced and made Pablo Honey PWYL they'd probably be unheard of.
> I'm not sure what you are getting at here. I don't think VB.NET is any "harder" than C# and while VB.NET

It was not clear by the comment, but I was not talking about VB.Net. This one is no worse than C# or Java, and I also don't see many people stuck on it.

That phrase applies much more to VB6 (even more in the day), and some others like PHP, or, going out of the generic domain MathLab (that used to suck, a lot, but doesn't anymore), and VBA.
Successful protest. :)
The Flipped version of the William Tell Overture is missing most of the tracks. When I open the Original in Garage Band (macOS), it has 8 tracks (including an empty piano track). But the flipped version only has 1 track (trumpets). It looks to me like AutoMIDIFlip actually combined all of the tracks together (which of course means the instrumentation is now wrong).
Help me out; I can't see a common theme except this person really likes a site called hardavenue.
>But doesn't make it any less true or false. To presume that your average joe has bothered to play in the realm of academic, diligent logic and reason is a mistake.

To presume that your average academic has is likewise a mistake.
Thanks for the reply. Would you mind being more specific about what specific aspects of the "automated" tests are "automated"?

E.g., in the CoderWall example, is it propagating of the title tag change to all the pages in the test group that's "automated"?

At least to my ears, "automated" suggests that there are tests that are selected and run completely without human intervention. (Which is hard to imagine in the SEO space.) Is that in any way accurate?

I realize the number and voting on comments can affect this rating somewhat but should it drop the #1 result to #63+ so that it shows up around +8 submissions that are 3 times as old?
Sure, it would have been easier for me to check the audit log, however the idea that it was an issue with SELinux didn't even cross my mind until I used strace. The vast majority of Linux systems I work on do not have it enabled.

You may not see a reason to disable SELinux, but not all Linux systems are RHEL, and don't have it enabled to begin with. I personally would not enable it on a system that did not design for it as a default.

Out of Jobs, Gates, and Torvalds, Jobs and Gates are some of the worst people to become part of the tech industry. Microsofts anti-consumer practices lead to it's world dominance and now the world is ruled by closed standards. Here is the Bill Gates copy pasta (and it's all true):

The worst thing Torvalds did was say some mean things on a mailing list. It's strange that so many people on HN seem to circle jerk around Bill Gates.
This is also my gripe with Twitter. I just don't understand the necessity of having so many employees as software businesses allow you to build tools to reduce the number of employees you need in a way other businesses can't.

I know it's a very poor parallel, but WhatsApp's sub 50 employee group around the time of acquisition was just so impressive in comparison with the size of some of these businesses. It was just orders of magnitude different. That being said - I agree with ohstopitu - I'd love to see a breakdown of who goes where...
Peers doesn't mean people "like" you, with your same knowledge. It means people with the same level of authority as you, which these days is none at all. Members of your society with no vested interests other than justice.

It means you aren't judged by the police, the judge, other parts of government, etc.

It's not perfect, probably just the least imperfect option.
And the funny thing is? This post is going to be rank-banned and thrown at the bottom of this comment section. Sure, upvote the submission here, but don't be blind to the glaring hypocrisy of the site you're doing it on.

From the Hacker News comments guidelines:

"Please resist commenting about being downvoted. It never does any good, and it makes boring reading."

You're yelling at no one. You'd do better to get attention for your cause by not treating everyone on this site like a demon.
That does sound like a very useful part for learning purposes, as well as general robustness, but they don't appear to be particularly common. I get no results on eBay, nor can I find through-hole packages.

As an aside (and not to hijack the thread..) but keep this in mind when some economists argue that inflation is good.

It's been several years since I experimented with this, but I recall that S/MIME on an iPhone was much easier to setup than GPG anywhere else, including the desktop. I think I used a USB transfer, but googling now shows guides that allow emailing a password encrypted p12 file.

CA and Web of Trust both require verifying the key fingerprints of yo want to be serious about it, but smime was much more easy to use overall.
I am 47 and I have no problems getting jobs. The key is to stay current and continue improving your thinking tools. An experienced 40+ develop who stays current can totally out compete a young inexperienced developer who thinks that coding is about typing fast. No it isn't. Otherwise companies would be hiring secretaries instead of programmers.
Not sure how else you can spin it, but not updating graphics drivers for years IS neglect. It shows a complete lack of care, since they easily could fix this. Or may be you are implying it's an intentional act of letting it rot to force developers to use Metal and such? That would be actually even worse, and I'd say should encourage both developers and users to ditch Apple even sooner.

Case in point, I've heard several times how people were saying, they are ditching MacOS, because Wine developers aren't going to support DX11 games there, courtesy of Apple not updating OpenGL.

I understand the switch to copyleft, but the EU's own website explicitly lists GPL licenses as incompatible, in the matrix on this page:

https://joinup.ec.europa.eu/software/page/eupl/eupl-compatib...

Dual-licensing under the EUPL and GPL, with the option to choose either, would be helpful. Otherwise Nodemailer is incompatible with the majority of other copyleft code.
There are a lot of solutions for the problems you mention. For overfitting you can do data augmentation, normalization, dropout and early stop with the test set. (and probably improve your dataset)

More neurons means more parameters to adjust to your data, so overfitting is more likely to happen. It is like interpolation a function, the more parameters you use the more overfitting you have.

> if your data is somewhat different from your training data in what humans would call an insignificant way, your network may easily start to fail

humans call it insignificant because we have a deep knowledge of a lot of domains, meanwhile a network has been trained for an specific domain. So if you train the network with a distribution and then test it with another distribution it is not going to work. That is like quite obvious I think

Deep learning works incredible well. It works so well that it outperform humans in some domains. So may want to rethink what are you doing, because I think (but I may be wrong) the reason you are failing applying deep learning is something related with your process and not with deep learning

I would hope this is just poor execution on the manufacturers behalf and will eventually realize that making the battery an upgradable module would be a great selling point. However, based on experience I don’t see manufactures wanting to sell better batteries when they can make it exclusive to newer models. I think after the proliferation of EV’s we will see a lot of aftermarket batteries with significantly better specs.
We've also dampened penalties that would have otherwise tanked the story, like flags and the overheated discussion detector.

I've been hearing they are losing a lot of users to Instagram, since the latter basically copied the best features of Snapchat. Anyone has any opinion on the topic?
Correct! Our customers don't have to lift a finger, and our software continually iterates on their SEO.
My company's Windows 7 image craps up awesome hardware, and so did the XP image before it. Lenovo T450s with an SSD? Yeah, that'll take a solid 5 minutes to reboot.
Current stock market performance is not a very good predictor of future economic health. They're almost always highest right before crisis, so trying to prognosticate based on like DJIA is tough game. You fail either by insisting that there's a bubble about to pop any day now for 5 years or by insisting that everything is fine because there are record highs and steady growth for years. I'd look more at business investment, particularly in greenfield projects, but I'm not an economist.
Of course, but I was talking about the incentives of an average user, which I'm not sure care about security as much as we do.

Just to make what I'm saying more concrete: most people in my home town in Sicily think it's perfectly OK to bring their phones and laptops to some random guy owning a tech-assistance shop and tell him their Facebook/Email passwords straight away so he can reinstall stuff and save their login for them. Do you think they care about upgrading because of "improved security"? I'm not sure they even understand what a security issue is...

>I haven't had a single issue with Windows 10

>I hate the menu and store that it shows so almost everything I tend to open has a shortcut on the desktop or is pinned to the toolbar

Some people would consider being unable to use a KEY feature of the OS a problem.

An interesting thing:

> Around half of consumers in the US and Germany say they comprehend how electrified
vehicles and related technology work versus almost 100% of consumers for ICE vehicles

I wonder if the almost 100% who say they comprehend how ICE vehicles work actually do understand it–even in a limited regard. It's easy to feel you understand something if you are familiar with it for the majority of your life.
That's $10 million per employee (at a $20B valuation). That's not a lot of when you consider they're building a product that will book billions of dollars in advertising revenue.
I searched their own site for the word "employees" and it was on the results page. The article loaded fine from there. YMMV.
I would 2.5x that estimate and with benefits etc, round it up to total cost $200k per employee.
I grew up on a fairly busy road, 60Km/h two lanes both ways, not exactly a highway but still quite busy. We were crossing unassisted with no lights or zebra crossings since about the age of 6 or 7.
so does that 1% includes tens of billions in loans , subsidies, military equipment or tech transfers ?
You run your proprietary software in a docker container or OS appropriate VM. Problem solved.
Predicting the future is hard. If they raise enough money, they might figure out how to make profit better than twitter did. Frankly, I can't predict anything anymore, if anything, I'll say they will do well. The opposite of my gut feelings. I've been 100% wrong in all the startups I tried to predict, the last 5 presidential elections, my favorite NFL team prospects for playoffs. I'm just bad. I agree with you, but I'll invest if I had the funds. You might be logically rational, but there is a large part of the world that is not.
> So I resist, get arrested, taken to jail.

You don't resist, you assert your rights. You fail to assert your rights and that will be exploited. If you get arrested for asserting your rights then you take them to court and you win.

> All because a cop did his job by investigating a minor who from his perspective

His perspective is irrelevant. Your only concern must be to protect yourself, which you failed to do.
I had no idea lithium ion batteries had become so inexpensive. Here is the top search for "kwh battery" on eBay right now:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Li-ion-Lithium-24vdc-100ah-2-4kwh-NE...

So with shipping, $869.96 for 2.4 kwh, or about $362/kwh. A $3 gallon of gasoline has 33 kwh, but only 8 kwh of usable energy due to the inefficiency of internal combustion engines, so $0.375/kwh.

So batteries are somewhere around 1000 times more expensive than gasoline, but, if they can be recharged more than 1000 times they may actually be cheaper. 1 kwh of electricity costs about 10-20 cents usually (call it $200 per 1000 charges). That's a total of $1069.96 for 1000 cycles, maybe $1269.96 for 2000 cycles, etc, something on that order anyway.

So $1 per cycle per kwh is pretty close to a breakeven against gasoline, and batteries are only going to get less expensive.
Time Warner blatantly tried to rip me off and, then stole my money when I signed up for Earthlink.

First they put charges for channels and shows I never purchased over a 3 month period adding up to $900. I tried to fight it and they wouldn't remove the charges. I cancelled my service and found Earthlink.

I gave Earthlink a little over $100 to hook up a cable modem to my house. 12 hours later it was disconnected and I was told I owed Time Warner $900. They never told me when I signed up that the line would be owned by TWC or that I owed money.

They kept my $100 so, I called AT&T which was the only other option. AT&T lied to me and told me I was getting fiber at 25Mb/sec. When the installer showed up with twisted pair I asked, this is DSL isn't it? He told me yes it was DSL and I'd only get 17Mb/sec. I just tested it on Fast.com and I get 12Mb/sec. Oh well, this is the only choice I have left for working at home at this point.

"These new scenarios do not reflect hippie idealism, they just take seriously a) the cost curves demonstrated by PV, EVs, and batteries so far, and b) what countries said they would do in Paris. ... If these forecasts play out, fossil fuels could lose 10 percent market share to PV and EVs within a decade. A 10 percent loss in market share was enough to send the US coal industry spiraling, enough to cause Europe’s utilities to hemorrhage money. It could seriously disrupt life for the oil majors."

I would hope this is just poor execution on the manufacturers behalf and will eventually realize that making the battery an upgradable module
