If they get your password can't they just turn of travle mode for you? Or wait until you do the same? I don't know that there is a technical answer here accept wiping your phone/laptop before you go through customes.

The real solution is a political one where we speak up and legeislate and litigate that the 4th amendment applies a the border.
Well, HN is not the most optimal place to do that. There are not many of us on here and we all already know these things. 1600 Pennsylvania Pl. is a better bang for your buck.
The vast majority of programmers are not competing for magic internet points. It was a few years ago there was this massive craze to create good looking Stack Overflow and GitHub profiles. Most people are not giving away their time for free... if they are contributing to open source it usually benefits their company or hobby project somehow.

Another issue is what happens to GitHub if they are not successful as a company. There was a story a few months ago here about how the company itself is losing money. How much will your profile be worth if GitHub goes out of business?
My thoughts exactly. The coolest skyscapes ever!
On edit: This also reminds me of U. LeGuin's system in the dispossessed.

The idea is that they cannot in fact make you turn travel mode off, because travel mode doesn't turn off. It's a time lock. The point is that while locked, Facebook and Google Mail are still usable; they just don't have your whole history available on them.

If we stipulate that your second paragraph is true, then travel mode is in fact a complete countermeasure to that behavior. (I don't think it's true).
He's proven he's willing to enact executive orders with no notice which bar legal immigrants from entering the country. So we've got action against immigrants already. Not just plans.
If you're referring to a configurable duration: setting an expiration doesn't work either. They'll just detain you for that length of time.
I've been recently writing a web app in Go - I like the libraries and the tools - but when pausing to write a test script in python I immediately realized Go can't be the right tool for regular CRUD websites. Python is a joy, I love dynamic patterns when writing code. Dicts and strings! It flows...

So, yay escape hatches!

At some point it was going to be a pattern (Java + jruby/ola bini's language)...
I've read that many/most children have a nearly photographic memory up until age 11 or so.

I don't have a citation for it, though.
VS for Mac is a full-on IDE, is significantly larger, and comes with lots of stuff to build a variety of apps.

VSCode is a text editor that, combined with the Ionide plugins, gives you a great lightweight IDE-like experience. It requires a bit more setup, but it's great if you prefer a more lightweight experience but still want a bunch of great features.

I use both depending on what I'm doing or what I feel like using. Typically I'll use VSCode for smaller projects or one-off F# scripts, but you can use it for just about anything. Ionide itself is actually built using Ionide, so that's a great example of using it for something bigger.
I honestly don't understand what you are trying to say.
As someone who doesn't know much about the inner workings of the whole TLS stack, why is this surprising? I know in the past I've self-signed certificates for domains that only existed on my LAN. Why couldn't that be the case here? Why shouldn't a central signing authority issue certificates for people's intranets?
They certainly have the power to collect the tax money required, and the Social Security SCOTUS case(Helvering v. Davis) sets a pretty good starting point for their power to spend.

I'd argue that while they have the power to spend the money on a wide variety of social programs(per the General Welfare clause), they don't have the power to redistribute income since it doesn't have a designated purpose. Spending is an exchange of money for services or goods, while UBI would just be an exchange of money.

Even if redistribution was considered a type of spending, the case mentions specific facts that harmed the elderly(employee age limits being the main one). If these mattered to the original case, then giving UBI to young people who choose not to work should be a weaker case, which makes it reasonable for SCOTUS to disagree at least on those examples.

Social Security is a combination of a forced retirement savings plan and a delayed redistribution of income. I don't know if anyone has argued that the redistribution part alone is unconstitutional, but the forced savings part comes from the payout increasing as you put more money in. A UBI would be entirely a redistribution.

A similar argument might apply to cases where the EITC causes a net benefit to be given to someone, but: A. The government could argue that the EITC is intended to benefit the poor, which seems similar to arguing that Social Security benefits the elderly and B. I don't know if anyone has standing to bring a suit, since those cases are probably rare and the damages would be small.
Sure, but it's a catch-22. If nobody trusts the currency, nobody will offer significant value for it. If nobody offers value for it, then nobody will ever trust it.

If I can buy an hour of your time for this, awesome. Make that offer. I'll take you up on it. Prepare to give me all your working time.
Yes but it's cause all sorts of angst in the computer architecture world - "little endian" architectures are "pure" in the sense that arabic is with it's embedded numbers, while big-endian systems are this weird mixed artifact of our language with text bytes going from lower to higher addresses and integers going the other way.

Over time we all realised that big-endian systems (IBM, 68k, etc, and our native western languages) were a hack and we've moved to little endian systems (intel, arm, DEC, ...) as sane
Why wouldn't they just detain you until the time runs out?
I can't speak to Visual Studio for Mac, but the Ionide plugin for VSCode is very impressive. VSCode will fire up faster than Visual Studio for windows and use less resources, ionide has some features Visual Studio does not. There are pros and cons, some people hate Visual Studio, some people prefer it. I prefer Visual Studio but Ionide is not bad when I'm in Linux.
Expert F# by Don Syme et. all is a fantastic book for precisely this purpose.

People are doing themselves a disservice if they scramble for a collection of cheat sheets since there are so good books available.
I'm wondering since these planets are so close to the parent star and to each other would it induce any gravitational instabilities?
I think I address most of these arguments in my reply to bluenose above.

The claim that this adds administrative overhead and increases implementation cost and decreases benefit in particular I think is incorrect.

Since most people will not participate in the "wasted-work" program (I need a pithy name for this scheme), the benefit per participant can be scaled up considerably from what UBI could provide on an individual basis.

Administratively I think it's probably close to a wash -- UBI has the administrative difficulty of preventing or detecting fraud (duplicate identities in particular), "wasted-work" has the administrative overhead of employing reliable "doormen" for the centers, and the real estate costs (and maintenance, etc.) of the centers, not to mention any administrative costs associated with attempts to fix the problems I highlighted around "commuting costs".

Both programs have the problem of setting the appropriate level of compensation and updating it to reflect changes in cost of living, but as I mentioned, "wasted-work" can be more sensitive to regional variations in the cost of living than UBI can (without a hugely increased administrative overhead).
Bitrise is a wonderful product. Last year a close friend and I formed an LLC and built an iOS app on contract. There was an insane number of things that we had to figure out from scratch, but our CI Just Worked and allowed us to easily send install links to our client.
I'll implement this advice.

I've picked up The Silent Language of Leaders and What Every Body is Saying for body language, and another for persuasion: The Like Switch.

Would you recommend learning how to shake hands/assert dominance like Trump, or is that something that might start being fazed out?

Also, when you get "fuck you money," will toning down on the theatrics hurt you in a major way, even if you've already shown you can be a BSD and preform?
It's a great idea! I would consider being careful with peer instruction, however. In software it runs the considerable risk of encouraging and inculcating bad practices, which is something an instructor is often used to mitigate in classroom-style environments.
I understand, but their default response for "You've done something to hide information from us" isn't going to be "Oh well, we tried. On your way!"
We tax money because we have services to pay for which are important enough that no individual or corporation alone should have exclusive control over, or more commonly, for "the common good". We as a voting people decide (via elected representatives) how we want to raise this money. We do it in a way that seems least painful for (hopefully) the largest number of people.

The exact definition of what's a good trade-off between services afforded and who to tax how much differs from one person to another, and one government to another. The common undercurrent, though, is that there is stuff to pay for, and that the decision lies with the people (via elected representatives) and not some arbitrary set of principles such as "because value is created".

We adopt laws based on such principles because they seem like a good enough solution that many can agree on. Many can also agree that taking money from someone who's dead is doing less harm than taking more money from someone who's still alive or cutting services (which also amounts to taking from people who are still alive). Many also agree that the deceased should have some say, pre-mortem, in how their legacy gets allocated.

That's why you have the right to bestow money upon your chosen heirs at all, rather than it all going to the state, or the king, or the first rando who happens to loot your home. Not because we follow unchangable principles, but because enough of us agree that it's the right thing to do. It's a subtle distinction.

A constitution is the lowest common denominator that a large enough majority of people can agree on. The US Constitution does not go into detail about what to tax and why. If there is a subsequent decision by the Supreme Court that acts as authoritative source for your argument, I'm happy to see it. Otherwise, your interpretation is just that, an opinion that people may agree with or disagree.

If, collectively, the people decide that the dead person's untaxed non-charitable donation rights are more important than the living's tax rates and/or services, I'm sure we can find a way to reduce or eliminate estate taxes.

Is there a simple, accurate and cost efficient test for toxoplasma? I got a cat 2 years ago... it never leaves the apartment on the 7th floor and never comes in contact with other cats. However it is a rescue cat so could have been infected before adoption.
$ echo "install dccp /bin/true" >> /etc/modprobe.d/dccp.conf
$ sudo rmmod dccp # in case it's already loaded

This is a good idea for any modules you don't expect to ever need. In my case:

$ cat /etc/modprobe.d/disabled_modules.conf
install appletalk /bin/true
install bluetooth /bin/true
install cramfs /bin/true
install dccp /bin/true
install firewire-core /bin/true

*snipped*

install tipc /bin/true
install udf /bin/true
install usb-storage /bin/true
install vfat /bin/true

The original -- to me -- recommendations for this were found in some "hardening guide" for RHEL (CIS, NSA, etc.), although I don't remember which.

See also the "modprobe.blacklist=" kernel parameter, which you'll have to use for "modules" that are compiled into the kernel itself (i.e., they are not actually loadable kernel modules).

15 years ago, when building your own kernels was a normal everyday thing, I simply built my kernels with everything compiled in and modules disabled. This (would have) prevented attacks such as kernel-level rootkits.

In addition, "one neat trick" was that you could halt (not poweroff) the machine (!) -- such as in the case of a Linux box simply acting as a router/firewall -- and the kernel would still be running. Good luck compromising that! :-)
As far as I can tell from the schedule the minimum bus trip from this site to Sunnyvale Caltrain is 44 minutes, plus an average 10 minutes for headway. That assumes you did not start off on the east face of the UFO, in which case you should add a walk of up to a mile to get to the VTA stop on Wolfe.

Walking would be just about as fast.
It seems to me that OkHttp doesn't in fact support a retry back off.

Yeah I was thinking the same thing, there was another post discussing the same topic which also picked up traction fast and after a day it seemed buried and gone. Very bizarre.
If you were to do it over again, would you have done it the same way? What would you have changed?
"Fun" game: find the opening parenthesis without using the find tool.
From the article:

> To work effectively, a trip mode feature would need to be easy to turn on, configurable (so you can choose how long you want the protection turned on for) and irrevocable for an amount of time chosen by the user once it’s set. There’s no sense in having a ‘trip mode’ if the person demanding your password can simply switch it off, or coerce you into switching it off.
I totally get the appeal of using static-site generators, I just don't understand why anyone would want to use it for a blog. As a programmer I use tools that are very complex; however, for those tools, there is no simpler alternative. When it comes to things that are outside of my work, I try to keep things as simple as possible, because the simpler it is the less I have to worry about it and the less sleep I loose at night over it.
The speed doesn't change but the wavelength does. That's why we see light from other galaxies redshifted.

This is addressed in the article: you say how long travel mode should last and once set it cannot be undone, even by the owner of the account.
As a heavy LuaJIT user, this blog post is a really great read. Regardless of if this particular optimization will directly benefit my software, the post contains many insights into LuaJIT's performance and optimization characteristics.

It's great to see this kind of deep understanding of LuaJIT coming from people other than Mike Pall, until he can be cloned: https://github.com/LuaJIT/LuaJIT/issues/45
Illegitimate government actions are sort of out of scope for this discussion though (which is about convincing companies to mitigate legitimate government actions).

As for your second point, there's no going back for an awful lot of people. And holding that aside, it's a sad world where using a computer to communicate is somehow a mistake.
In a building that size and with the California climate being what it is, _everybody_ will take those shortcuts. Also, inside the old Apple campus, I've seen people play frisbee on the lawns during lunch breaks.

This space also is large enough for bootcamp, yoga classes, etc, and enough people will work there to find people willing to take part in such activities.

They could even 'hide' a basketball court inside if they wanted (dig a one feet hole to hold the court; surround it by a 3 foot 'wall' for spectators to hang around on; add trees and shrubs for camouflage, and nobody will see it from inside the building)
The importance of perseverance
I think that happened in the article.
Sure!

- Biggest difference is the reusable steps (e.g. add HockeyApp step, paste API token, good to go for deploy)

- Generally being more open - steps/integrations, stacks, CLI, webhook service, workflow editor are all open sourced

- Repository scanner - based on your configs you'll get a workflow to build, test and deploy your app in minutes

- You can download the bitrise.yml to run your workflows locally with our CLI: http://devcenter.bitrise.io/bitrise-cli/

- Trigger map, to configure what to build when: http://devcenter.bitrise.io/webhooks/trigger-map/

- (GitHub,) Bitbucket and GitLab (full API) support, and additional webhook support for Slack (trigger a build from Slack), visualstudio.com, gogs, deveo git repos through the open source Webhook processor (https://github.com/bitrise-io/bitrise-webhooks)

- Codesigndoc - an open source tool which, by running a line of command in your terminal exports all your necessary code signing files to upload to Bitrise

- We don't charge you for builds running over time limit

- You're able to use both Linux and macOS stacks on the same plan (either on free or paid)
Now we just need a 40,000 generation ship.

This is completely naive.

Firstly, social media's only incentive is to make your data as widely available as possible (in the interests of ad revenue), and maintain a good relationship with the government in their jurisdiction. Every other existing "privacy" setting on Facebook, LinkedIn, etc is already obfuscated to the point of unusability, for this reason, and "travel mode" would be no different.

Secondly, lets imagine that FB did implement a watertight "travel mode" that hid your embarrassing data effectively while you were travelling. Third parties would just start capturing and storing posts while you have "travel mode" off, and sell that to CBP, or whoever else wants to pay for it.
I feel it would be quite obvious looking at your device and it's lack of data that such a feature was in force and they would just deny you entry. Nice idea but the problems need fixed in law. IMO technical solutions are just temporary bandaids.
On my part I'll be able to give you a detailed answer after a few weeks of running a couple of my apps with decent traffic on swarm :)
> The first kind are simply Jew haters.

I sadly can't deny that such people exist but it seems profoundly weird to me that anyone could just hate a bunch of random people they've never met. Some sort of wiring bug.
I've been imagining for some time an ideal system with just two languages: one compiled low-level one, one interpreted high-level one -- and absolutely zero runtime configuration beyond that. Anytime you want to change how a program behaves you would have to edit its sources. A whole system with the dwm[1] aesthetic, basically. Always keep sources close to programs, allow the entire system to recompile with a single command. Encourage people to micromanage precisely which image formats they want to turn on. The only thing that is interpreted at runtime is code in the high level language.

Do you have a use case where something would be correctly inferred in Flow but not in TS?
Oh thats good. This was something I've been wondering lately.
Because indefinite detention is not something they can lawfully do (in US, today).

In contrast, suspending 4th amendment at border has been made lawful by the courts.
With some (but not all that many) comments, and not very much karma. They're old enough to not appear as green, but they're little-used accounts.
Funny enough, the same could be said of your rebuttal.
What the heck are you talking about? Global warming is simple and easily explained by the available evidence: too much carbon in the atmosphere increases the greenhouse effect. All the arguing is how much is "too much" and exactly how much of an effect it'll have. The gravitation of the planet hasn't changed significantly in eons; the atmosphere has because of all the pollution we dump into it.
>>In particular, it needs to be normal enough that a significant fraction of all travelers do it.

Yes, exactly.

Border agents are trained to look for anything out of the ordinary. Currently, using a feature like this would immediately raise a huge red flag and encourage more questioning, detention and possibly even deportation based on the person's country of origin and the mood of the border agent.

Incidentally, that's why I think there is virtually zero chance for these types of features to take off: the system strongly discourages early adopters from trying them.
I don't have any particular problems with what you're saying, although it feels like a lot of the abuse around camping and doing work will be offset by the problems of stigma associated with being in one of the centers. That is, there's no need to police people to make sure that they aren't doing outside work or reading, when being in the center itself is not a particularly fun -- people who can afford to not be in the center will most likely choose to spend their time elsewhere.

That may not sound particularly humanitarian, but keep in mind that this also benefits the "smelly homeless people" likely in ways that the current systems (what good is a minimum wage when nobody will hire you) or UBI (what's your mailing address, sir, where we can send the check, or where's your photo ID?) will not.
Because the time lock would be so long as to make it impractical to do that.
Ideally it would not be evident that the account is in travel mode.
There is no technical solution to this. If you want there to be no searches of your phone when crossing the border, speak to your representative in Congress and your Senator. If they don't listen, then vote for someone else or even better, run yourself.

The only way this is going to change is with a change in the law.

Best Anagram: Moore's law beats a better algorithm
This is an argument for automating top management. There are companies that choke on limited CEO bandwidth, and Google seems to be one of them. Apple under Jobs kept the product line so small that one person could manage it, which is one way to do it. Google, though, keeps trying to broaden their revenue stream beyond ads, without much success.

This is a classic management problem. The first person to really get a handle on it was Alfred P. Sloane, who headed GM and wrote "The Concept of the Corporation". He figured out how to organize a very large company effectively, and GM's management structure worked well for half a century. They beat out everybody else until Japanese competition appeared. (GM probably stayed with Sloan's structure too long, but nobody else really knew what to do.)

There's the argument that, rather than one company having a broad range of products, there should be many companies, each with a narrow product range. It's cheaper to run a fund than manage a conglomerate. The conglomerate concept was that "synergy" between the business units would reduce cost. In practice, this rarely works.

There are some successful companies with very broad product lines. Mitsubishi and Samsung are two of the biggest. General Electric was the classic US example, but they've backed off from most of their consumer products other than major appliances.
I tried tryfs.net, but the Hello World sample doesn't work in Chrome: uBlock Origin blocks some scripts, but even after disabling uBlock it still doesn't render anything to the output area, it just flashes.
A week? 2? I don't think technology changes are the right approach here, but you wouldn't be setting travel mode for a duration equal to transit time through an airport.
