Clearly copyright violation has an affect on all parties involved.

But I don't understand your comment really. Law shouldn't reflect the will of a powerful minority, it should reflect what the population in general finds acceptable.

If most people find copyright violation acceptable, I can't see any argument for harsh penalties in a democracy.
True, defeats the idea of a one liner in bash/awk/sed.
Naruto Season 1 Episode 17 (English Dubbed)
According to who? Googling "economic value" returns a litany of definitions in terms of money (or, more generally, exchange).

I don't deny that there is a notion of value apart from the economic one, in fact I would even go so far as to argue that the terms "economic value" (and "market value" etc) give markets entirely too much credit by suggesting that economic value and market value do a halfway decent job of approximating or approaching the philosophical notion of value, which is the term I'd ascribe to your definition and to general use of the word "value" without additional qualifiers.
That's quite a leap. It's not as if the world is C, C++, and Rust. The community behind any managed language is going to include not just people who've never used C++, but also plenty who have, and who reject it for the same reasons that motivate the Rust folks try their hand at doing better.

Blackberry however is down over 2300% from the height of 2007.

It cannot be more than 100% down. It's roughly 96% down from it's height in 2007.

That said, it seems quite disingenuous to use the absolute peak of Blackberry when it was almost a decade ago. You could easily look at BBRY over the time frame since Twilio IPO'd and see that BBRY was flat or slightly growing.

Apart from that, I agree with everything else you said except for (5), can you explain how Blackberry is 'close to Amazon'?
yes it is obvious, "cloud computers with great support".

I don't disagree with your general point (although I'll quibble a bit about non-carbon emissions; even heavily scrubbed coal emits a lot of heavy metals that aren't present in gasoline).

But what Prius only gets 35 MPG? Did you mean 53MPG? My old Prius with batteries that are getting long in the tooth still gets 40-45 MPG.
I have just checked Breitbart's store and didn't see any offensive product. Why should they ban them?
Considering that HN does not preserve envelope formatting, that more than one person reads HN, and that scrolling through this on my phone was really fun, perhaps PGP messages are not a good idea regardless of how on-topic or clever they are.
See and I feel somewhat opposite, so I love that we have such a diversity of choice in games. For me I've always had a hard time getting into games where there was a ton of pointless stuff lying around. Like a game that lets you pick up a wooden fork from someone's table... is this going to be important later? Why else would they let me pick it up? I'm going to take it because it must be worth something. And it's still in my inventory when I finish the game. Ooh, a book I can read in the game, must be important... nope, it's just a story you can read, because I guess the story of the game isn't good enough to keep players interested.

Games like Skyrim and GTA I like because most of the time the stuff you find hidden here and there are interesting things happening in every corner you look. But some of the modern takes on CRPGs like Divinity: Original Sin, I have a hard time with. They encourage you in tooltips and loading screens to talk to everyone, try to trade with everyone, because some random person might be super important. But 90% of them are useless. So I waste how much time searching empty chests and pointless NPCs to find maybe one out of 100 that's actually important?

I don't like 100% on-rails stuff, but I do like a little guidance. I don't play games to waste time, I play games to be entertained. I really liked HL2's guidance. It's one of those games where you play it as a cinematic experience, not to explore an vast and complex world. There are plenty of games on both sides of the coin.
I have seriously considered open sourcing my companies framework but just don't have the time. We have an awesome message bus that will route messages to AMQP, zeromq or Kafka and you can convert the returned messages into futures (guava),observables, or plugin your own reactive deferred object (aka future Java 9 flow).

We have a cool config framework as well as a weird jdbc wrapper (we now mainly use jooq).

I also have an ocaml app that updates the maven dependecies (pom file) for continuous deployment as the maven version plugin is too slow.

Couldn't this be solved with an LED sign or something? Even if not, true self driving cars aren't coming for a while - they will still disengage and force the driver to take control in some situations. I'd be interested in seeing what happens in those situations, too - if you live near CCSF in San Francisco there are a bunch of these roads.

The NSA and federal government have lost the presumption of reasonableness in my eyes... rl3 mentioned no motive, and the possibility of a compulsion is a great hypothesis. if so, it's just one more example of the government persecuting the mentally ill to inflate their numbers (like the FBI agents who incite schizophrenic individuals to act on a hare-brained "bomb plot", and then bust them).
You're right, when I say action here I actually mean interactive. It doesn't play a pre-recorded video clip, it lets you keep some amount of control over your character and keeps you in the game world.
Why do you have to negotiate anything? If you're driving, you're higher priority than the car trying to leave its parking spot. It's their problem to squeeze into the traffic.
They also shipped the Lisa prior to that, which also had protected memory and pre-emptive multitasking. This died for other reasons however (too expensive, upstaged by the mac, etc).
To put it another way, marginal efficiency increased but total efficiency went down, which is (to some) unintuitive. It's certainly rare to observe!

To be diagnosed with a "real" ADHD things like depression, and all the other kinds of disorders need to be excluded. Only when all the avenues have been exhausted, and especially with family history of similar affection, should such diagnosis be made.

The research - surprisingly consistent over the last 5 decades - points out that "true" ADHD exists in 5% population. In US the rate of children diagnosis is 15%, so here you might be right.

ADHD is not just one thing, but most likely a set of many conditions. There is trauma/underdeveloped prefrontal cortex, there is dopamine deficiency, problems with magnesium processing, and other things too. Essentially, what we call a "true" ADHD is just doctors saying: "We don't know, we can't treat the root cause, it's not psychological, stimulants are the best we can offer at this moment".

Finally, two points regarding your arguments:

- Just because in your case attention deficit was due to a treatable problem, doesn't mean other people are the same.

- There's an unpopular opinion, and an uneducated opinion. I think you might be slightly confused on which is which.
If IRC was as simple and elegant and extensible as some would suggest, there wouldn't be a posse of persistent chat companies worth tens or hundreds of millions of dollars.
Well the beauty of one-liners is that they're quick and dirty. They don't need to be portable, you don't usually maintain a one-liner for years. If you need something portable, you should use a real cross-platform language like Perl, Python, etc. Something that's independent of the OS you're running.
Depends on how you set up the key initially. I don't know if it's still possible, but at some point in the past you could specify your own master key that isn't stored on their servers. My account was one of those, so once I lost access to my computers/paper key, I also had lost access to the PHP key and therefore had to essentially start fresh.

The only pain is that you have to re-verify all your services.

OSX is one of Steve Jobs' least-discussed successes.

The original Mac, Pixar, the iPod, the iPhone are all talked about -- but without OSX as a Unix-based OS, application-development on Macs, and adoption of Macs in the '00s would have been much slower and more sparse.

Really? I wouldn't have thought a symbolic machine company would have been noticeably affected by the Minsky-triggered AI winter. Or are you talking about the post Japanese Fifth Generation project slow down? The MCC project in Austin Texas (and Doug Lenat's Cyc) took some hits from that one...
DVD's hold up to 8.5GB. So under 6,000 DVD's which sounds like a lot, but at under 1$ each so it's only like 5k.

A spindle can hold 100 and you get more than 4 of them per cubic foot. So call it 15 cubic feet of DVD's that's basically just a single plastic tub. Granted, more than that with CD's and less than that with Blue Ray disks. But, if he took burnable DVD's home regularly.

Anyway, it would be interesting if he had a fetish for this stuff, wanted to sell it, or was just being really stupid.

PS: Only idea I have for a dumb, but plausible explication is if he was backing up his classified work laptop every week or something.
Sure. Two things were true then, are true now and will be true ten years later (when India is making the loans?): First, the loans are not charity. Second, Argentina will end up defaulting on them.
Kudos to the author for making the post readable using a 32kbps connection.

My apartment does not have a landline, not to mention any other form of wired communication, so my internet connection is relegated to a Wi-Fi router that's separated by two walls(friendly neighbour) and a GSM modem that, after using the paltry 14GB of transfer it provides, falls back to a 32kbps connection.

Things that work in these circumstances:

- Mobile Facebook(Can't say I'm not surprised here).

- Google Hangouts.

- HN (obviously).

- A few other videoconferencing solutions(naturally in audio only mode).

Things that don't work, or barely work:

- Gmail.

- Slack(ok, this one sort of works, but is not consistent).

- Most Android apps.

- Github.

EDIT: added newlines.

What's wrong with Mozart? He is popular for a reason: he is freaking great. I hate that some people smugly dismiss things that are popular as beneath them, or conversely, that you have to like hyper-obscure artist or else you're not into real art. Bullshit, Mozart is great.

You're right on the 96% thing. Long day.

Amazon deal: http://uk.businessinsider.com/twilio-amazon-web-services-par...

If Amazon decides to partner instead of build, I think that's an excellent sign. Amazon has also participated in their last investment round I believe, before they went public. And I vaguely remember reading something about Jeff Lawson and Jeff Bezos knowing each other well, but I'm not entirely sure whether that's correct and/or if I remember that right.
There isn't really yet an operational definition of gerrymandering. Such that, if x conditions exist, it's gerrymandering, and if they don't, it's not. You can't do it without pointing at results and going, "Well that's clearly unfair."

I believe there is a recent legal case that is still in the courts where they are trying to arrive at a legal standard. Something about the percentage of unrepresented voters in a state's average district. So there might be progress on that point.

But even politicians that complain against gerrymandering are inconsistent. Some politicians complain about "safe" districts not being competitive enough, and also complain that house elections don't mirror the popular vote breakdown enough. Those are actually on opposite sides of the loose tradeoff.

As you move towards your house results mirroring the popular vote (like if today's House were 48.2% Democratic and 46.1% Republican), then you move towards less competitive districts (except for primaries), like the "perfect representation" example in the article. Because, in order to guarantee that your state's district breakdown will mirror your state's vote breakdown, you basically would want all Republican-voting people in their districts, and all Democratic-voting people in their own.

So, what do you want? Do you want a House that is overall representative of the national popular vote? Do you want districts where the maximum number of citizens are represented? Do you want competitive districts? Do you want compact, contiguous districts? Do you want districts that respect traditional neighborhood boundaries, district history, and geography? Because they all imply different districting strategies. And saying "let's just let a computer split-line it!" means explicitly rejecting some of these principles - you can't get past making choices about tradeoffs, because it is inherently messy.

I wonder if this is at all related to the recent 'Shadow Brokers' leaks.

Positive news that they caught him anyway, another Snowden-like espionage drama would be highly undesirable.
80% of women are raped when crossing the border illegally. Putting up a wall will hurt the human smuggling business model, taking power from criminals, and stopping thousands of sex crimes every year. In 2010 and 2011 hundreds of people were executed in the San Fernando massacres. Trump came out in support of building a wall and yes, he even mentioned these statistics in his 2015 Chicago Tribune interview. The news media says he is racist, but then why would he care about Mexican women being raped?
His election is not absurd to anyone with a functioning brain. All of the business leaders that support him can tell you that. He's called homophobic, yet look how closely he works with Peter Thiel.
Good luck with your school project, maybe watch about 20 hours of recent Milo Yiannopolis(sp?) shows and discover your own blindness.
Yet another smear at Trump, listing him amongst bad folk and Putin too. You can't just word associate and chant to make things related, there must be a factual connection, and don't be overwhelmed by the consistent negative news reports, because those preponderances are all tiny snapshots lacking understanding and contexts, filtered by extreme confirmation bias, only accepting information when it fits preconceived notions, without preserving greater meaning. It's so funny how tiny brains often go into "deep thinking" projects, when deeply troubled mental status is more like it. Lol!
I used to do that, but with Amazon I can usually just pay for the new season as it comes out. So that's what I do with shows I watch weekly (pretty much just always sunny at this point). This is if I can't get them already with Hulu/HBO Now/whatever.

It's more about convenience than cost. I've even considered getting cable but with the ads and the fact that my provider is very expensive (unless you bundle internet, not happening) it's not worth it.

By the time we wrapped up this project Intel finally released Hyperscan as Open Source. Hyperscan implements these and other transformation tricks, not to mention the SIMD optimizations.

However, Hyperscan doesn't have as strong compatibility for PCRE as what we ended up with--100% effectively--and would have necessitated keeping libpcre as a failover. Hyperscan is substantially faster than Ragel for small-to-medium length expressions thanks to their SIMD optimizations, but with huge, unioned expressions (larger than what Hyperscan can handle) Ragel-generated code is on par.

Starting from scratch today and presuming Hyperscan is still well-maintained, it would be most practical to build a solution around Hyperscan. Especially if you need capturing, as capturing expressions can't be unioned effectively. Ragel, however, makes a ton sense for many other tasks than merely speeding up PCRE matching.

What makes Ragel unique is:

1) The way it integrates with the host language (C, C++, Java, etc). It allows executing host-language expressions at state machine transitions. It doesn't directly tie into the host language typing model (e.g. like Boost's template-based regular expressions), but for various reasons it's hardly a liability and often an asset.

2) It allows yielding and resumption of matching at any and all input stream boundaries, with runtime machine state being a simple integer. (Application keeps any additional state however it wants.) Most regular expression tools require a complete string to match against, while a Ragel machine can be iteratively applied to an infinite stream of data. That capability wasn't useful in this scenario, but it's extremely useful for concisely, performantly, and securely implementing network protocols, for example. In a low-level language like C, and especially with asynchronous I/O, this can drastically simplify the task of I/O and buffer management. You could parse (if you wanted) an entire HTTP stream in a single logical pass, without having to deal with line buffering, header continuations, etc as separate concerns in your code, greatly simplifying networking code. In a some sense it can be thought of as a complement if not an alternative to callback schemes, futures/promises, or green threading (a la Go).

> are but one category of security-relevant bugs

Memory safety is somewhat special because it's foundational: it is a prerequisite for any other sort of safety/security, as memory safety violations often can be(/are) exploited to trigger pretty much any other problem (e.g. RCE can do anything); other security problems are usually more constrained.
Even the word "fair" implies the belief that a state's district breakdown should track with the state's population breakdown. This is not necessarily axiomatic. If you want competitive districts with a smaller incumbency advantage, then maybe you don't want that. IOW it depends on how you define "fair".
Not the parent, but for me - stimulation of senses helps a lot. Music, chewing stuff, moving a lot to focus. (some ADHD people go the other way and need absolutely zero distractions)

Headspace/meditation helps with anxiety. So does getting adrenaline pumping, and a proper diet, For example, for some people ADHD is related to problems with Tyramine processing, which blocks proper interaction with Dopamine, and switching into a tyramine-free diet helps.

Finally, of course: Ritalin, caffeine, sugar, nicotine. The first time in my life I tried nicotine and Ritalin (in lieu of sugar/caffeine and stressing myself), at the age of 33, it was crazy. The calmness and clarity. Finally could understand how people can sit at the desks for 8 hours a day!

As for exercise - it's quite easy as a kid, but imagine having to do 1h of serious exercise every single day for the rest of your life. Because, for me, that's the level that kind of calms me down.
And no excuses, no "oh, I've got a deadline and a kid is sick, I'll skip it today". If you skip it, you cannot work. Period.
