If Assange knows and has hard evidence that it isn't from any Russian connected source then he could present that and this would do huge damage to the US.

So why doesn't he ? If it was really the CIA that hacked the DNC then why would they be so stupid to blame Russia if Assange could so easily falsify that claim ? That's a huge reputation risk.

Assange only said that it wasn't the Russian Government themselves. Doesn't rule out it being a team of hackers with connections to Russian IC or even directly to the Kremlin.

Or even Russian hackers acting on their own but with the wink wink approval of Putin. Kremlin may even fund groups like startups. Give out money, see what happens. It's like Al Qaeda - they don't need to have an org chart or any explicit communication.
> But it's not inheritance as it is commonly known either.

Wikipedia disagrees; do you have a citation in mind?

> Which is similar to class based inheritance, but can happen at run time.

That's not a distinguishing feature of class based inheritance; many implementation do this. Python's class based inheritance is extremely flexible and absolutely allows run time modification; to a greater or lesser extent this is true of many dynamic language (Ruby, Perl, etc.).

What do you think the defining feature of class based inheritance is that allows a clean distinction between JS and Python? Because I don't personally see much of one.

> Because copying feels closer to composition than than it does to OO inheritance or prototype delegation IMO.

Well, opinions are subjective. My experience has been the reverse, however.

Or, instead, you could just not do that. Then you could go back to being productive, instead of wasting time tracking down unstable small tweaks for edge cases that you can barely notice after looping the same syscall 5 million times in a row.

When will people learn not to micro-optimize?
To some extent yes but often no.

Apple has close relationships with those companies so it's often a case of them reaching out to the developers rather than just blinding rejecting the app.

But any idea that Apple would allow them to run ruff shot over the platform and do whatever they wanted is a bit ridiculous.
I totally agree with your story.

So to keep up with technology is that I sometimes switch from customer (if you have the chance), then you will automically learn new things. Whether they are old or new technologies.

Another thing is try to follow sometimes courses, seminars (hard- and soft skill), during working hours preferably. Then it won't affect your private time.

And if I have time when my 3 kids are in bed, and I still feel the energy to create something. Force myself to keep my side project small, and don't be too hard on yourself when you don't finish it. Because you definitely learned something.

Good point, but keep in mind that New York's subway is old and antiquated. Inefficient connections, overcrowded lines, and a lack of maintenance are a major part of longer commute times.

Also remember that New York is a set of islands. This already puts it at an efficiency disadvantage.

Berlin and Munich are two cities that come to mind with excellent public transport and great commute times. Most people commute in less than 30 minutes even from less central areas.

What I find most interesting is that Trump tweets about Obama tapping his phone and then a few days later this leak happens. In the minds of his supporters this makes him credible.

But it also shows that he or Bannon might have known this leak was coming and the "wiretapp" rant was the set up. Which makes things very messy indeed.
I take breaks for hands-on training in between contracts or sometimes in the middle, on average it's been three 1-week breaks a year. Besides that it's just 15 minutes of technical blogs before work and maybe two hours with a technical book over the weekend so that I'm at least aware of what's going on.

Becoming a parent did not prevent me from doing extra work but rather made me re-evaluate my priorities. I want to give a good example to my 7-years old son with some balance in life with time for playing, sports, slow family dinners.

Fortunately web development allows me to accumulate savings for inevitable pause between jobs be it for re-training when my Rails expertise becomes obsolete, fun projects, sabbatical or founding a startup.
But your claim is based on your faith that you "find it impossible to believe...".

They did say they've changed to a computer-free environment after the Snowden leaks. Or maybe Russian would-be leakers know the stakes are higher for them than for American leakers, because they can get tea with a portion of Polonium.
I suspect you're just making a fun comparison without much thought, but it comes across as pretty obnoxious. Nobody at Uber is afraid they'll be murdered if they quit their job. Stop trivializing domestic abuse.
My kids (4 and 6) go to bed between 7 and 8PM (target = 7:30). They have to get up at 6:30 AM so we can get them ready for school without too much of a rush, so they go to bed early. They are both good sleepers; that helps of course.

Subtracting time for household work, that leaves 1-2 hours each night for leisure. Weekends can give a bit more leisure time, but not always. Sometimes my girlfriend and I eat after kids-bedtime to have a chance to actually taste our food (or go out, with a babysitter staying with our kids), once a week I go to the local hackerspace, the rest is more or less for myself.

For me, I learned to ruthlessly prioritize in my list of things that I want to do, and I got good at structuring my projects in result-oriented blocks of work that can be done in one or a few time blocks.

I also don't watch TV; this went way down the priority list after the first kid was born.

I didn't think this was good. Her basic definitions at the beginning (eg virality) was very poor. Either she doesn't have a clear understanding of these or just isn't that good at expressing herself (hopefully the latter). Her thinking is quite convoluted. Did anyone else think this?
That's a pretty gross generalisation based on one company. There are definitely a few cases but the industry as a whole isn't comparable to Wall Street by any means.
And the people inside the government to whom the intelligence is provided have every right to trust the source. However, to us in the public, we don't know these people, and have zero reason to trust them, absent actual factual evidence. What, you wouldn't put it past them to lie all the sudden?
Awesome, good luck! New to C# in January '16, I have been using both from day 1. The test runner in RS is an improvement on the built in, but doesn't really hold a candle to NCrunch. You use Resharper for all the other good bits though :) Together, the trifecta of Studio, NCrunch and Resharper is an unbeatable combination.

Beware: I'm pretty sure I failed a job interview as I was so used to Resharper, when I needed to do a test on a PC without I was fairly lost. They had no interest in my setting up unit tests first for the programming tasks so it might have been just as well.
https://wikileaks.org/wiki/Category:Russia

I think you actually meant "Why are there no significant, recent leaks that have not been reported by anyone else about Russia"? There's plenty of innocuous explanations:

- the media is currently on an anti-Russian frenzy. Why would you leak to Wikileaks, which has a much smaller reach than say, the NYT?

- Assange has been painted as a Russian shill. Why would you leak to Wikileaks if you are afraid he might suppress that information or share it with Russia?

- Wikileaks has no political leverage. Why would you leak documents to Wikileaks instead of US intelligence agencies, which may/could offer some kind of protection vs Russian reprisal?

(By the way, browsing a few other countries, it seems like most of the indexed stuff is from 2008-, so Russia isn't an outlier in this regard. It seems like their recent leaks have significantly slowed down in number, which isn't surprising).
Oops. From other comments appears its Plaid https://plaid.com/
If they are options, and your company allows you to exercise early, then you can buy them and pay $1000 to convert to restricted stock, file an 83(b), and it's $0 in taxes as theres no gain. If they are just restricted stock(not to be confused with RSU) then you can 83(b) like you said. But any way you do it, including holding options, has a bunch of risk so every situation is unique.
Exactly the same with me. Only that I have another 2 years old son :)
> A European online would read US media AND his country's media. And often of 1-2 other countries where he shares a language or speaks their language.

This is also very true in Asia. If you turn on a TV where I am, there are channels from all over in many languages. There are the big US news networks, BBC, RT, France 24, other news networks from China, Japan, Singapore, Vietnam, etc. We get cheesy Indian and Thai dramas and horrible 80s cop movies from China that are remarkably similar to horrible 80s cop movies from the US. The last time I watched TV here (I don't own one) I saw an interview with Slavoj Žižek on a European network.

I am of the same mind as you that US citizens would benefit tremendously from exposure to more outside media.
I do wonder why, if they're _really_ fine with that, why they're not fine with browsers with different rendering engines on iOS.

A lot of people have a stay-at-home partner who takes care of the kids. This makes a huge difference. My partner is currently studying at university, and whenever she has holidays, I can work a lot more.

But in general having kids takes a lot of time. So I can't do all the things that I used to do before. I go out a lot less, I watch barely any TV anymore, and I rarely code anymore at night (too tired most days), and I read fewer books.

However, I'm still productive. Little projects that I used work on for a few weekends take months now. I just spend a few hours here and there. But once the project is done, it's done, and it doesn't matter how long it took.
I don't see anything in the leaks that couldn't have been (somewhat easily) fabricated. I am still looking.

I somehow missed the bit about the Panama Papers having a lot about Putin in there. That makes me question my original assertion that WL would have released more. As you said, it's impossible to know.

Let history be our guide. Has WL released anything substantially damaging to Russia?

Are things about how rich and corrupt Putin is considered damaging and would Russian State media give it any play regardless? It'd play big internationally but in Russia I wonder if the public would even hear about it...

Or even better use window.close() then the user will only see the browser window open briefly. Of course if the user has JavaScript disabled, use HTTP 302 Found or HTML meta refresh to redirect, blah blah.
This is misleading FUD disguised as an innocent question. The strategy is to pose a seemingly reasonable hypothetical that, in reality, encourages folks to disregard common sense, ignore security best practices, and instead embrace their worst suspicions about the role that ecosystems play in modern technology.

Reject this naive approach to reality. No, we will not disregard Tim Berners-Lee's role, timing, or place in history. We will not pretend that Cupertino should ignore their responsibility to prevent arbitrary code execution on one of the most widely deployed platforms on the planet. If anything, we celebrate that despite Apple being a giant target for quite a bit of criticism these days (some deserved, some not), for the most part, people on this thread recognize what a giant, unacceptable vulnerability Rollout.io is.

Tech must advance beyond adversarial, animus-based, abrasive reactions to other operating systems, ecosystems, and the like. No time like the present and no better opportunity than some ignorant HN strawman.

PG wrote a post a while back about how kids really only have the magic of Christmas a handful of times (ages 3-11?) and then it's gone.

When you're making choices, realize there will always be another framework, another conference, another chance to try out that new tool but your kid is constantly changing, learning, and is fundamentally different today, tomorrow, and a week from now, especially when they're young. I have a 2yo and a 5mo and they get first dibs on my time. After they go to bed, I work until whatever time.. but they're back up by 8am so I take it easy.

Btw, it's fun opening a conference call with "Just so you know, my son is joining us for this call. He's not NDA'd but he's 2 years old, doesn't write yet and has a very limited vocabulary. Are you okay with that?"

And then if it's internal-only, I turn on video for a minute so he can wave at everyone. ;)
Patches could be assets - updated map data - updated textures - updated AI scripts? I don't think these need a full app store update as it's not changing the game from a game to a dating app (for example).

> Recommendations for office spaces is that noise be kept < 60 dB IIRC.

I'd quit if I had to work in an office space with 60 dB noise. That's like sitting next to a rack of 1U servers at "moderately angry bee swarm" fan level.

I personally cannot stand to be near a noise source above 40 dB for any extended length of time (more than a few hours).

But 60 dB... wow. Can't imagine how shitty that must be to work in for 8 hours per day.

They already have, to some extent. The only web browser (or, well, rendering engine) allowed on iOS is ones using the WebKit they provide. This is the reason is took ages for Firefox to appear on iOS, and even today isn't actually Firefox and thus can't make use of features usually in Firefox like supporting websites using CSS Grid, or WebAssembly, or Service Workers, or WebRTC, or...
"That's because no one even knows how to start doing "science" in this direction."

No true, there is an entire field of usability science. It is all still limited to experimental learnings as opposed to theoretical deterministic knowns.

Currently usability testing is only be applied to end users. There is no reason task analysis and the Jakob Neilson's 10 heuristic rules of basic usability cannot be applied to software itself. I apply the science of usability to written software.

Gas taxes are state level based at this time. But let's say they become county based. Ensure that taxes are across multiple counties as LA really is a metropolis that spans many counties.

To see the effect you are talking about, you would see it and it has happened, in Primm, Nevada.

Some people make the effort to go get gas past the state line but really, it was never worth their effort.
Perhaps. They are using ProtonMail. (Found out by using dig.)
With as long as I've been using OneDrive For Business -- yeah, they'll probably fix it over time. It's been getting fixed over time. It's just happening really slowly, and I wouldn't be optimistic about it getting fixed on a timeline I cared about.
I go to sleep at the same time or shortly after the kids, then wake up early to have two hours of high quality time for my own projects. I was a night owl before getting kids, then transformed into early bird. My thinking is much clearer in the morning than in the evening, the early morning hours are the best.
You are clearly missing other dotnet dependencies. Apt output is mentioning dotnet-sharedframework-microsoft.netcore.app-1.1.1. Anyway I personally would go with docker image, so you won't mess up your system. I've tried microsoft/docker image om example from that arcticle and was successful.

How to protect your private data when you travel to the United States
The problem of how to assemble the coalition in the first place remains unsolved, indeed. You also need buy in from a major player in each bloc, as you suggest. I believe my original idea was for it to start small (but diverse), and grow over time with success.

My entire scheme is to strike down the convention that someone is only put on international trial after they have lost a war and been captured (I would like justice to be done without having a war first.) this may not be possible, but is surely worth a try.

Re: citizenship, I strongly believe that these feelings of belonging are learned, indeed are engineered in us in much the same way as a religion. My objection is that, observing the emergent behaviour of a system where everyone is under either of these spells, they lead to undesireable behaviours (aggression, proselytising, belief that evil acts are justified, sometimes even committing the evil acts willingly). Both of these systems were, hypothetically, supposed to make people behave better, not worse!
