Pegasus Mail. An organization I work with still use this software... because it's free.

Its author [David Harris] has done a fantastic job of maintaining it but the UI is definitely the product of a bygone era.

I must confess to preferring Outlook 2016 and its ease of cross platform use when used with an Exchange server. I don't find the ribbon interface confusing like some on here.

My only gripe is the complicated method of publishing recipients S/MIME certificates to the Global Address List before they can be used to encrypt mail with.
Get a commercial microwave oven. I did this - you won't regret it. I got a Sharp Electronics R-21LCF 1000W oven. Yes, it costs close to $300 USD. A similar consumer over will only cost half that. But these things are near workhorses, designed to run near constantly in a foodservice environment (restaurants and the like).

My wife and I decided to do this after experiencing yet another consumer over breaking after only having it a couple of years. We decided to go with the Sharp model, because it (along with Amana) is what you see in most restaurants. We figured to give it a shot, and see how we liked it, and how long it would last.

We've only had it a couple of years, but so far we love it. It only has one knob, only runs on "HIGH" full power, and only allows for a few minutes of cooking at a time. But so far, we haven't had a problem cooking anything in it. You have to adjust how you used to do things (if you're used to power levels - especially "defrost") - but overall, it isn't that big of a deal. Just stick the food in, turn the knob, come back when it "dings".

Doesn't get any simpler.

Now if only I could figure out how to get a TurboChef cheaply...

I wonder: since there are only thirteen factorials that fit into int32, and thus only 13 possible valid inputs, is it faster or slower to use a very small lookup table? https://godbolt.org/g/9ii0S0 It seems like this is the sort of thing a good compiler can figure out on its own, but I don't fully understand what clang is doing with this loop: https://godbolt.org/g/ze5ycb

Verification of what, to whom/what?

If you're using WiFi, there's no "phone" anything involved.

Or at least, I don't get why there would need to be.
My guess is that the "communication" is fairly basic (e.g. position, speed, acceleration - nothing a human driver couldn't observe), rather than information about strategies (e.g. "I am going to attempt to overtake on the inside at the next turn").

Done right, I could see this event being quite spectacular. Vehicles could take bigger risks, and reap bigger rewards (and bigger crashes).

Google Play Services was a hard dependency. People complained about it all the time and asked to remove it. Now they have finally done what users have asked for, and what is the reaction? "Who the heck needs this?" Well, that's how it always is.

The Steelcase Leap v2 is also fantastic (the differences are not major, I believe, and it was The Wirecutter's previous top choice [1]), and can be found fairly cheaply on Craigslist. I bought a refurbished one for $250 recently.

Compared to most high-end chairs like the Herman Miller Aeron, Steelcase's chairs are very soft and body-hugging.

That said, if money were no object and looks were king, I would go for an Interstuhl Every [2] or the FK84 by Fabricius and Kastholm for Kill [3].

No, it is not possible.

Unless you plan to do this purely on private property, you are going to have to negotiate and pay for access to public right of way.

Also, even if you only did this on private property and did not cross any roads or other public spaces, you'd be SOL if your neighbor wasn't a node and they didn't feel like giving you permission to cross their property.
I don't think its a race issue so much as a physical appearance issue. Height, attractiveness, facial structure, body size. Certain people look "presidential" and they command a lot of automatic respect just based on appearance. There are plenty of minority people that have this quality. There are plenty of white males lacking this quality.

Look-ism is the huge issue that is almost never talked about. In most companies you could probably better judge how successful new hires will be just by how they look in a video of them talking vs a sample of their work or credentials.
While there is a sunk cost fallacy, your sunk costs do determine future costs. If you've already sunk a thousand hours into penmanship so that it will only take you another ten to learn a new style, it's a better investment than spending a hundred on learning to type proficiently.
You can use Signal with a VOIP number. Do the one-time registration and that's it. Or you can get yourself an anonymous disposable SIM (unless illegal in your country), register the number and keep hold of the SIM if you need to re-register the number in the future.

I certainly don't think this is any conspiracy - it's pretty much Trumps stated position.

Woah. This is something that would cause me to switch over from Linux.

Reproducible builds are so important, they prevent a build server or developer laptop from being a single point of failure as a tainted build can now be detected by others.

It'll never happen. It hasn't happened for casinos, and we've known about the health effects of those for a long time.

Like many products, microwaves are designed to sell, not to be used.

The consumer in the store thinks that better product has more buttons and features, not thinking how they would be used.
> They do not do that. It's illegal under federal law.

They definitely do. Our city has a franchise agreement with the incumbent cable provider; they're the only company allowed to provide cable television service. ~10 years ago a company called NuNet tried to come in and run fiber in a neighboring city, Hazleton, and both they and the city were sued by the incumbent for breaching the franchise.
Sometimes it's just because of experience though.

If you're simply bootstrapping a single app on a single vm, then fine, have at it.

* As soon as you go down the route of making that reproducable, it can as easily be mostly done by a Dockerfile than a bash or Ansible (or any other configuration management) script.

* Then you want failover or have it active on another server? Okay, you can just run you ansible against, maybe you put it in cloud-init and an autoscaling group, or maybe you can have something like a kubernetes framework take care of that.

* You want health checking? Sure, have it configuring nagios or something similar, or you can have a ELB check an endpoint, or you can have kubernetes do it?

* Want some storage? Let me add a PVC, or I can play about with managing EBSs and other block storage myself.

Once you start digging a bit deeper, realising that many of the things your apps will probably want you either need to build yourself, or will lock you into AWS, going to google and clicking the GKE button doesn't seem a terrible prospect. There are other ways to do things, but once you've learnt this way, you can reuse it almost anywhere.

Our industry is really faddish so I don't blame you for being skeptical, but the second you start hosting 3-4 apps, I'd rather have just bootstrapped kubernetes (or went to a managed service provider) and have all the primitives avaiable to me.
If I buy a building that has the fiber installed what would be required to run the internet just for me or my company? How much (and what) in equipment am I looking at? I wouldn't want to be an ISP....just provide internet for my company.
Both your comment and the parent comment can be valid at the same time.
Indeed. This is pretty much the best outcome for Russia.
You can host a server, but you can't talk with people on the official Signal server or any other Signal server, as far as I am aware. This is not federated, just allowing of other isolated centralized clusters.
"This work takes years of training"

The ability to buckle down and study something as a project for a couple years is very expensive in employees. You can hire an engineer who can definitely do it, or a non-STEM bachelors grad who might be able to do it, or take your chances with a kid off the street. $12/hr is probably not going to find that caliber of employee.

Some google work indicates McDonalds is paying a minimum of $10/hr nationwide as of this year. For an extra two bucks the employer thinks he's going to get Warner Von Braun himself... in a city where the average job pays $18/hr. Good luck with that.

The trades don't get $12/hr. Millwright average pay across the nation including non-union jobs is twice that at $24/hr.

(edited to add, I accidentally deleted a paragraph claiming that three millwrights could trivially outproduce perhaps nine general laborers, which makes the guys claims about expense especially weird. Its very expensive to employ the far left corner of the bell curve)

Dude is asking for vaguely millwright caliber of employee for half price and is shocked, shocked I tell you, that all he's getting is drug addicts trying to keep their unemployment benefits going.

I can ask all day for subcontractors to work under me for $8/hr and the lack of serious applicants tells absolutely nothing useful about the software development field or the social problems of the USA. Thats the fundamental problem of this story.

"I only pay peanuts and I'm only getting monkeys, so this is a national crisis worthy of national coverage" No, not really.
No, we don't offer free trials, as they would be abused. However, you can just rent a number and cancel it immediately if it doesn't work for you -- we charge the rental by the minute so you would only spend a very small amount of money in the case that it didn't work for you.
I should say that the Bayesian point of view is about thinking that all your computed probabilities are only the result of partial information, more data means changing those probabilities using the new information and Bayes' Theorem.

In the Bayesian way of thinking you are always wondering if there is another source of information that can enhance your probabilities. Like in the random forest method, you try to gain new knowledge from many sources.
I was happy to see cleaning supplies, tools, and cooking gadgets. Every time someone posts one of those 'I only own 12 things' posts, that's the first thing I think about/look for.

Oh, you just spilled a drink? Better call a cleaning lady because you don't even own paper towels.

Time to a cook a meal? Nope, can't. Better just eat out instead.

Something is broken? No duct tape, can't go over my 12 item limit, throw out the broken thing and buy a new one.

It all seems so impractical while also oozing of privilege. Must be nice to not have to repair anything or ever cook for yourself.
>The role of the camera is generally overrated, however there are certain characteristics that you only get with expensive full frame cameras such as the Canon EOS 5D Mark III he appears to be using

The "shallow DOF" can be achieved with a longer lens on a crop-factor camera. And most landscape pictures (such as those) use the hyperfocal distance anyway.

A "expensive full frame" camera will have better "low noise" but marginally so compared to a APS C or even 4/3rds camera with the latest (4-5 years) generation of sensors. We're simply above the point of having new cameras really give anything beyond marginal returns in ISO utility (not because they don't get better ISO, but because so much sensitivity is useless for most kinds of photography, including most of landscape work (plus, it affects color rendition). In any case, in all the history of film photography, all known celebrated photographs seldom straiyed outside something like 800-1600 ISO. Not sure why we need 6400+ today, except for pissing contents and/or stalking).

Now, while most of the points are real, they are all marginal returns, and depend so much upon the conditions at the shoot and the skill of the photographer that they might as well not matter at all.

I'd go as far as to say that a $300 APS-C used well will be able to take just as good photos as any $5K full frame (yeah, it might lose a couple of stops of DOF, just use a faster lens on it), and even an expensive lens on the latter wont make that much of a different at any normal print size (at least up to A3).
Let's also not forget ageism, heightism, voice-ism (positive affect of rich voices).
Sure, and we could save money by only have women's restrooms on every other floor, or not at all since we can certainly save money by not hiring women at all. Its just economic sense: we know that its easier to find men, so lets just optimize for men. Then there's all that diversity training. And don't forget women create tension at the office because they are pretty and their women parts distract the men who can't be expected to control themselves.

If you think that any of this is trivial, you are part of the problem.
You're right, native allies were important for the eventual conquest of the Incas. I was referencing the key Battle of Cajamarca where ~160 Spaniards slaughtered thousands of Incas (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Cajamarca) and took Atahualpa, the Inca emperor, hostage.
Yes, I think you are right. I thought I remember it being heterochromat, but looking online all references seem to be to tetrachromat. In terms of evidence, I think prevalence is there, but there were some papers where they actually tested color perception differences (at least from wikipedia).

Your messages still go through OWS servers. I believe signal routes messages via phone #.

The hidden new business opportunity in autonomous cars
Ask HN: How do I pursue an academic relationship with a professor?
Brief background: I'm a 29-year-old junior in an undergrad CS program. I've been going to school one class per quarter for a few years while working full-time and supporting my wife during her second degree, but now that she graduated I've recently quit my job and this is my first full-time academic quarter.

I've recently discovered that the professor teaching my algorithms course is somewhat well-known in the cryptology field, which is exciting for me as an interest in and passion for crypto is what got me to go back to school and study CS. I would really like to pursue an academic relationship with this professor, but I"m not sure what the best way to do that would be, or even necessarily what that would like. I'm essentially thinking of someone from whom I could ask for a letter of reference, and ask for course/topic of study recommendations, that kind of thing; perhaps even as an adviser for the independent-study type credits that are offered. I feel like I have better-than-average interpersonal skills and perspective compared to the just-out-of-high-school students who make up most of my classmates, but having worked a full-time job for the last ten years and having only recently gotten into computer science, I don't really have side-projects of my own I can talk to him about, which seems like a disadvantage. I'm performing well in his class, though I'm not at the very top. Can anyone give some advice on how I might best make a good impression on him (aside from just performing well and being interested) and open a dialog with him?
Nice looking site! Only gripe is the terms/privacy page is in plain text. It also has a link to the actual privacy page apparently, in section 8 (https://www.onlyeats.com/privacy), but that link is invalid.
In that case have a look at https://wiki.netbsd.org/guide/veriexec/.
Desktop Kaby Lake launched last month, portable Kaby Lake started shipping to OEMs Q2 2016.

Intel used to try for a tick or tock every year - so Sandy Bridge in 2011, IVB in 2012, Haswell in 2013, then Broadwell was incredibly late except for a handful of SKUs in 2014, Skylake in 2015, Kaby Lake (mobile) in 2016...

Really the problem is that Intel ends up having these staggered releases, probably to address limited yield on their new processes and the most impact/value (since they've been so focused on improved work per watt, and mobile cares about that for a lot more than just heat dissipation reasons...)
I think you're right. Minority, female, etc., are often just noisy proxies for what you call look-ism and I would also add normal-ism.
Depends on your video adaptor/card, but nvidia supports Dynamic Super Resolution (DSR), and AMD supports Virtual Super Resolution, both of which essentially allow you to bump your res beyond the max.

In the nvidia control panel, have a look in '3D settings' > 'Manage 3D settings' > 'DSR - Factors' and you can change the resolution multiplier. (Not sure why it's in 3D settings, as it applies to the desktop along with anything else).
An interesting idea. Conversely, the public editor could make an account here and defend the story. It would be an interesting read.

Now as absurd as that might sound, that's probably something that would fall within the Public Editor's job description and that the Public Editor would be paid to do it. On the other hand, I'm not getting paid to improve the New York Times and the reporters and editors and so forth who are being paid, all felt the story was fine and dandy. So the odds that my efforts will change the institutional character of the New York Times are proportional to the degree to which it actively is soliciting my opinion...which it does not need to do since I have stated it here.
> The man "understood that it was a federal crime to send a threatening communication to anyone and will never do it again," the FBI wrote.

Was his understanding correct? Is it in fact a federal crime to be mean and threatening to someone online? I'm not sure where the line is drawn with respect to protected speech, and the article takes more of a moral than a legal or objective point of view.

> During those months, much of the video game world — which is massive — became obsessed with the idea that women might ruin the future of games by persuading game studios to abandon sexy female characters or tone down the default machismo of male characters.

This is simply false. Yes, the video game world is massive, but the part that discussed gamergate and women in games is very, very small. Most people that play video games have never heard of gamergate, most of the rest have no problem with women in games (in fact, many of those players are women themselves).

The author of the article is living in a bubble. But to its credit, the article does admit

> It is difficult to estimate just how big the Gamergate movement really was [..] 10,000 users discussed Gamergate on Reddit.

That's probably the best estimate. So 10,000 out of many, many millions.

The article dismisses the alternative narrative of "the authorities investigated and concluded no crimes were committed, thus showing that the concern about gamergate was largely unwarranted," but that seems more accurate.
Linked it in my first comment, but sure, done.
I'll have to say with SAP, it's really down to how it's implemented. I've seen AWFUL implementations of it (like the one you're describing) and I've seen amazing ones, generally the ones either done by SAP themselves or by their recommended partners are the best.

Having said that, it's a gigantic beast so it's not surprising that there's a lot of broken implementations out there. Good SAP 'guys' aren't very common unfortunately.

> One of the interesting things that Apple seems to do in MacOS is to remember specific screens. Plugging into them recalls a previous display arrangement setup.

Linux does that as well: it remembers the identifying information of attached displays, and remembers the last configuration you used with that set of displays attached.

That simple heuristic works well for docking, TVs, projectors, and many other use cases.
