Those are at the top of the display of file contents. However, they aren't in the tree view, as you've stated. Unfortunately, this is hard because I don't believe Git stores this info in their index of files, which is what is used to generate the tree view. It might be infeasible to gather that data for the tree view.

> Show real dates instead of the vaguely rounded off "how long ago".

If you hover over any relative date, the real date is shown. It's on the title attribute for any relative date.

The have Consolas and "Liberation Mono" on the font stack, but those probably aren't on your phone. They are limited in font selection because they have switched to native fonts. This avoids the download of some giant font file that contains all the possible glyphs (which is needed on a site like GitHub's). Unfortunately, the monospace options on mobile are pretty limited: http://iosfonts.com/

Best tip I can offer is to type `t` to search by file name. Works great and has partial matching support, which makes it really quick to navigate to certain key files.
Yes but $64 billion more comfortable?
Maybe an argument would be that, on balance, illegal immigration keeps cost down in the service industries. Those savings are realized at the local, neighborhood level in NYC (think your local bagel shop or bodega), while tourism and AirBnB tend to have less of a broader, distributed effect on commerce throughout the entire city. That's just one point. I guess on the other hand there is a cost of social services for illegal immigrants that would have to be quantified to make that argument. I don't know, it's complicated.

Maybe put another way, illegal immigrants are part of the community, so their presence in the housing market must be balanced against their role in a more complex system.

But if you are just asking about the nature of Justice, I don't have any thoughts on that.
An important part of this community is that when we disagree with other members we don't attack them or call names like this, so please don't.

Assuming that 9kcal of fat = 1g, that's about 80g of extra fat stored/lost per day. Over the course of the year, that's 3 kg, or about 6.5 pounds.

That kind of variance is enough to mean that if we trust the study, you could raise two different twenty-year-olds and one will die of starvation and the other will be clinically obese despite the same routine and diet.

Surely some extra functionality would not obfuscate the inherent simplicity of S3.

A an S3Query module would not, I think, make things harder for S3 users.

And frankly - it would be awesome.

I used s3 a lot, and loathe to switch to a DB if I can avoid it.

Some querying and indexing features I think would be taken up by a large number of devs.
The reason these are 65W+ is they are enthusiast CPUs (to compete with Intel desktops). They will have apu versions for mobile using this architecture later in the year.

>"...Instead, the order requires only that [Rawls] produce his computer and hard drives in an unencrypted state."

This language makes it sound like the government is specifically asking the defendant to take an affirmative action to produce the evidence required to incriminate himself. That would be the same thing as issuing an order with the intent to compel an accused murder to tell the police where the body is. I really don't understand how a court could issue an order based on such an argument.

Not sure what you're saying. Heathrow is sorta in the suburbs already--about an hour tube ride--but you can get from Heathrow to Paddington in about 15 minutes by Heathrow Express (which may or may not be a good value) with another rail project underway. Certainly Heathrow isn't going to be picked up and moved.
> How about olive oil? The oils they name there already got a bad rap in the press here for not being very good for you. But olive oil persists.

Sorta an apples and oranges comparison. Olive oil is primarily a monounsaturated fat. The article covers polyunsaturated fat. Olive oil is more stable than linoleic oil, but still less than any decent saturated fat.

I think it's kinda funny the article references cholesterol levels. My suggestion: They could try and measure the subjects' midichlorian levels.
Wow this is an innocent perspective. TailsOS would definitely raise suspicion even if you otherwise seemed as pure as the driven snow. Suspicion will prompt a deeper investigation, which is what you don't want.

> Tom Drake took the software we had for ThinThread, basically after the NSA cancelled our programme, and ran it against the entire NSA database in February 2002. We found that all the data about the attack was in there, where they were going, who they were connecting with, actually even the date of the attack: 9/11.

I'll bet I could design a system to reveal the exact dates of terrorist attacks after they've happened too.

lieing and destroying evidence if there is a warrant or subpoena is a definitive crime.
The subsidies are qualitatively different: If roads had to be paid for entirely from user fees in the form of gas or mileage taxes, they could be for effective rates not much higher than fuel prices of a few years ago. Capital and maintenance.

If you tried to charge passengers adequately to fund rail, the system would go into a death spiral, absent radical changes in consumer preferences.
I love the idea of it... but the video makes it very hard to see how it works. I believe it's possible to show how this works without it actually working right now. I think you might be focusing too much on making it look good and polished, you need to just make it work, bare bones!

The Dangers of Packing on the Pounds
That was a pretty good interview. I read about Binney before Snowden and I think Snowden knew about him as well. That's why he had to get all that data out otherwise he would not be believed.

I remember Binney sort being painted as a crazy conspiracy lunatic.

It is interesting how he stood up to them but was afraid for his life for a bit there. Wonder if he knew of any cases of people being suicided on US soil by the US govt or just a general precaution. Wonder if anyone from that dept. would leak anything...
A powerful MongoDB auditing and pentesting tool
If I had known that they were going to run this through the Central Valley instead of down the coast where it belongs I never would have voted for it. It should have gone straight from la to Oakland or emeryville, turned and gone straight to Sacramento. Instead we have a convoluted mess of rail connections that take people places they don't even want to go (no offense to Bakersfield buts it's hardly a holiday destination).

It's a farse because of how it's getting implemented, and nobody is under any illusions this isn't going to turn into another bay bridge budget monster in California.

Still a rail proponent, but bitterly disappointed in the implementation choices of this project.
I think the point is that one of the things making train travel to, say, Manhattan attractive vs. air is that I can just walk, subway, or take a shortish cab trip to my destination from Penn Station. That's a big advantage over getting into Manhattan from any of the NYC airports.

If the answer to arriving in LA is "you need to rent a car in any case" (which it often will be), then you lose one area of train potential advantage.
It seems like voodoo when you have high-school mathematics, because you've been taught about "to the power of" in terms of multiplying something by itself a certain number of times, and multiplying something by itself an imaginary number of times is nonsensical.

Once you've done enough maths you think of it in a different way and e^ipi seems obvious.

It's just a different conception of what the symbols mean, I suppose.

SUMo 5.1.2.352 Crack 2017 with Serial Key Latest Version
S3's API is so rudimentary that I prefer to think of it as a non-enumerable key/value store.

I learned this the hard way: We had an application where made the mistake of storing about a billion files in a nearly flat structure — one level of nesting, probably 100m "folders" in the root. Then one day we needed to go through it to prune stuff that was no longer in use. Unfortunately, if you don't have a "shardable" prefix, list requests are impossible to parallelize efficiently (because you can't subdivide the work), and our scripts took weeks to run to completion. Hard-earned experience: If you're storing large quantities of stuff in S3, always pick a shardable prefix. The upload date is a good choice. A random string will also do.

After this, my solution for any non-trivially-sized storage use case is to store an inventory of objects separately in a performant PostgreSQL database, and make sure all writes go through a service layer that shields the consumer from the details of S3. This has some benefits over a hypothetical centralized approach (but some downsides, like the possibility that things get out of sync if you sidestep the inventory). Overall, I wish S3 would store its metadata in something like BigQuery.

Anyone know if Google Cloud Platform's S3 equivalent, Cloud Storage, improves on these issues?

They do fail. Lots and lots of times. And it gets worse over time, as chips degrade due to hot-electron effects or electromigration.
Aren't we relying on the body to be inefficient? That is, consume more energy from food than is actually exerted onto the treadmill (or whatever) during exercise.

Thermodynamics provides a lower bound on the amount of energy taken from food, but but couldn't it cost me 2 kcal to put 1 kcal into a stationary bike, while it costs someone else only 1.5?

All conservation of energy says here is that it has to cost at least 1.
Authorities issue dire warnings amid imminent California dam collapse
The Customs agent insisted he had the authority search the device.

I was thinking about this the other day, as a non-American, and I don't see how that is possible.

I work for the Australian gov't and of course cannot give out passwords or access to any of the devices which I carry which belong to the Australian gov't. How does US Border controls deal with that situation. They definitely do not have the authority to search a device owned by a foreign gov't, though it also seems they don't have the authority to search the device of an American either.

Thoughts?

Do you have any plans regarding how you'd implement resilience and the equivalent of Spark's concept of 'lineage', where you keep a history of how a given RDD was computed, and then you can recompute it if it gets lost?

I haven't looked into Spark in depth, but I believe that 'lineage' relies heavily on Scala's delayed evaluation and the underlying Java RMI facilities. Doing something similar in C++ may require a lot more effort and a significantly different set of tradeoffs regarding the performance model.
Okay, so don't associate the SSN hash with the account. Come up with a mechanism to store anonymized SSNs to detect duplicate accounts.
One of the goals of anti-distribution laws is to quell e.g. a local market for foreign exploitation. It's similar to banning the trade of ivory - sure, it's illegal to hunt elephants in most jurisdictions, but it's sadly hard to enforce in some parts of the world. It's even harder to enforce when the promise of wealth inspires the desperate to violence - hence the goal of e.g. "conflict free diamonds" as well. It's taking the laws of supply and demand, and using them to apply an economic answer - reducing demand - to reduce supply.

It depends a lot too on how airports are connected to cities. While it admittedly probably takes a good hour from gate to hotel, the fact that I can hop on BART from SFO (or several train options from Heathrow to London) negates some of the airport vs. center city difference. Especially because it's not like you can just walk from a given downtown station to your final destination in all cases anyway.
Can anyone point me to a resource of the advantages of including copyright dates? I've worked with IP lawyers who consider them to be legally useless. Copyright is applied to a work upon creation and expires n years after the death of the developer. The year of creation has nothing to do with copyright, unless you're trying to prove who created the work, but a year in the copyright notice is a poor way to do this.

What actually happened to the ideal of rewarding content based on 'attention minutes'?

My experience of Medium is that the content that gets surfaced is from people who are already 'notable' in some other way (think that Medium allowing you to import your Twitter followers and have then auto follow you on Medium doesn't help this), and low value Steve Jobs self-help bullshit.

I can buy into curating 'hidden gems' using data in the way Spotify does, I can get behind breaking unheard voices, but I can't see how the current model of giving famous people a megaphone was ever going to upend journalism.

Europe or Japan were nice, but China was amazing. No pre-paid ticket, no planning just show up at the Shenzen train station the morning, arrive in Beijing in the evening on the other size of the country.[1]

Imagine freedom, the innovation, the improvement in quality of life if we could hop on a train in the morning NYC and arrive in SF at night for ~$100. I found the trains so much more comfortable than even flying first class. Seeing the countryside fly by at 350km/hr is worth the price alone. Americans have no idea what they're missing.

All knowledge learned represents an opportunity cost paid, both in real capital and time consumed in acquisition, both for the students and the educational system as a whole. If nothing is done with it other than acquisition, we as a society lose.

I am not against the viewpoint you present for anything other than what I see as pragmatic reasons. If we lived in a post-scarcity economy, I would agree with you.

But we don't, and we aren't going to be there anytime soon, either. The system we have now loads crippling debt on to students, and one of the reasons it can do so is because of the constraints of supply and demand. Thus, in my opinion, to not do anything with an advanced degree is deeply selfish.

The most elementary explanation I ever got for why e^(i pi) = -1 is from the definition

e = lim_{n -> infinity} (1 + 1/n)^n

First, we can generalize this to

e^z = lim_{n -> infinity} (1 + 1/n)^(z n) = lim_{m -> infinity} (1 + z/m)^m

using the substitution m = zn. Therefore,

e^(i pi) = lim_{m -> infinity} (1 + i pi/m)^m

Now, converting the complex number (1 + i pi/m) in terms of polar coordinates (r, theta) yields

r = (1 + pi^2/m^2) ~ 1

theta = sin^{-1}(pi/m) ~ pi/m

Since the product of two complex numbers is

(r, theta) (r', theta') = (r r', theta + theta'),

we have

(1 + i pi/m)^m ~ (1^m, m * pi/m) = (1, pi) = -1.
