"One way of doing it is taking drugs and alcohol, and the other thing is that you can just shut down your emotional awareness of your body. And so a very large number of traumatized people who we see — I’d say the majority of the people we treat at the trauma center and in my practice — have very cut off relationships to their bodies. They may not feel what’s happening in their bodies. They may not register what goes on with them. And so what became very clear is that we needed to help people for them to feel safe feeling the sensations in their bodies, to start having a relationship with the life of their organism, as I like to call it."

[Also interesting, but not related: that psychiatrist found that yoga helped reset the connection between mind and body for those who had experienced trauma.]

I'm under the impression the sync can be used to read the image, since it does have a save feature. I'm wondering if the reverse can be done too? Could you make the display show an image that was previously saved?

I'm curious why you think the jot 8.5 can save. I do know the earlier models were using an msp430, which others are suggesting cannot save the image. I actually have one of these Jots, but I don't know anything about hardware hacking so I'm not going to tear it apart (unless people just want pictures of the guts and possibly what chips are in there)

I think disruption is a very nice and simple concept, very powerful, and so overused… Its not a synonym for "new and successful".
How Instagram is a disruptive innovation? Its a real question, maybe it is, and I am just too old to figure it out.
Facebook in app's browser is total horror and I refuse to do any work related to it, even if it would cost me my job!

A while ago I made a website for the company I work for, everything was working flawless across all major browsers including mobile. Then some e-commerce dude asked me to fix a few style issues for Facebook browser. I didn't even know of it's existence by then!

This browser goes way beyond IE6 incompatibility, I spend 2 days in hell trying to fix the style issues, which is nearly impossible because there is not even a proper way to test your changes. To start I first had to install that stupid FB app/virus in my phone, after that everything you type in the address bar generates some totally useless crap suggestions and advertising all the way, it was quite a puzzle/hack to even reach my own development server through all this misery..

I eventually had to decide to redo the entire styling of the website so it works with FB browser, or simply give up. I very fortunately managed to convince my manager to not support FB browser, but I must have lost some credibility that I was not able to fix this seemingly simple style issue.
What's difficult about setting up a Redis cluster to back sessions? Yes, it adds a point of failure... so does having a database of any kind. However, I'd hardly call it difficult. If you're on Amazon, you can just create an Elasticache cluster and not even concern yourself with the ops.

I don't hate secure cookies or anything, but some people act like plain-old regular cookies haven't been thoroughly solved by this point.

Related: Something people get wrong a lot with secure cookies is worrying about obscuring the cookie more than securing it. Encryption does not give you authentication; you need MAC for that. An encrypted message can still be blindly modified. Imagine being able to change a UID stored in a "secure" cookie even if you couldn't 100% control which. Eventually, if you try enough permutations, you're going to escalate your privileges!

I'm seeing a lot of people being confused with many of the comments in React Native posts. Some people in these comments now aren't sure if the "right" navigation solution is React Navigation or Native Navigation. I think a good document to follow to understand Facebook's plans with the project is React Native's Roadmap [1].

In there you'll see that React Navigation is a solution aimed at "Green Field" projects (as Leland Richardson from Airbnb calls new React Native projects) and replaces Navigator, Navigation Experimental, and Ex-Navigation. On the other hand, Native Navigation is aimed at "Brown Field" projects (like Airbnb's app, which was built in native much before React Native was open sourced) and replaces NavigatorIOS.

You can also see that various features in the roadmap are in collaboration with other organizations (Expo for Create React Native App and Airbnb for React Native Maps).

Indeed React Native has been moving extremely fast but after our decision to go with it over a year ago we've never thought even once about going back.

In an age where women are given preferential treatment every step of the way, this comes as no surprise. Stop the pandering and hire women based on their merit rather than the genitals, then we will see this change.

Empty-headed "unconscious bias" re-education and "anti-misogyny" re-training will only further cement the stereo-type that women are just eye-candy or quota-filling seat fillers.
Yeah, Sinn is a great brand and probably in a price range that seems more sane than some of the entry level Rolex, Panerai, JLC, etc. I have a Sinn 556i and it is probably one of my favorite watches. As much as I don't want to have two Sinn's out of principle, the 104 is also a gorgeous watch.

Another point about Sinn is that they use pretty standard movements, like the ETA 2824, which could easily be swapped out or serviced by most any watchmaker--it's this ease of servicing that is making me think twice about moving up into some of the more expensive Swiss/German pieces with unique in-house movements. For those reading this who are not familiar with mechanical watch service costs, fancier Swiss watches like AP and others can cost 1500$ or more just for the watch equivalent of a "tune-up."
they went downhill when they asked users to come up with a handle.
They are slowly trying to become the IoT. All of their applications try to, discreetly, integrate with each other.

How so? Where do Trump supporters and right-wingers get their news from?

If you are on the right, you look at MSNBC, CNN, NYT, etc. and see a ridiculously biased and censored view of the world. So distorted that no one could see Trump winning.

Their viewers are mostly liberal and because of PC-culture there is a very narrow acceptable world-view. To write an article pro-anything-Trump did would put careers at risk.

Liberals receive a very censored view of the world. The ethos being something like, we need to control the facts you hear about otherwise everyone will turn into racists.

Its ironic how they are shouting fascist and big brother 1984, when they are the ones who are censoring the news, physically preventing ppl speaking at events, not engaging in debate, banning words, etc.

Look at wikileaks - use to be a hero of the left, but now it is an enemy.

A progressive-run government would be much more authoritarian.

> Excuse me? Do you have a point here? Sure if all the food I ever ate started smelling bad, I would say all food in the world smells bad. What is your point?

You perceive Fox News as a bad source of news in the same way that the right perceive the MSM as a bad source of news.

Its wrong to discredit the MSM...when its on your side. But if the tables are turned, you would feel the same way about the MSM.

> Bullshit. The reason they have Trump supporters is because a lot of American people are Trump supporters. And their willingness to work with people with different beliefs shows that they are willing to debate with them. You are contradicting yourself.

You think that there is 50% republicans running around the NYTimes newsroom? You think the people who work at CNN are anywhere close to 50% republican. No way. I am saying they hire like-minded people because its difficult to constantly be having arguments all day.

> All of this is, again, besides the point that the current WH is authoritarian.

> pm90: Definition: favoring or enforcing strict obedience to authority, especially that of the government, at the expense of personal freedom.

I really, really don't see this, compared to the behaviour of the progressive left.

I do not see personal freedoms of US citizens being violated. I see illegal immigrants being deported, laws being enforced, national borders being secured, and freedoms being protected.

Progressive-left is authoritarianism waiting to happen.

But I really wish you could convince me of this WH authoritarianism. I'm just not seeing it.

Keep in mind some of Asimov's best-known works do not flatter the intellectuals or even technology:

Foundation Trilogy --

1) The Encyclopedia Foundation epitomizes ivory-tower (and mostly retrospective) intellectuals who find themselves outmaneuvered by a mere politician, Salvor Hardin. This same Hardin uses deceit and treachery to keep Terminus independent against menacing breakaway provinces. Hardin's successors oversee the hegemony of the Foundation, even as Terminus' government devolves into autocracy under the Indburs.

2) The savior of humanity Hari Seldon essentially keeps Terminus in the dark about crises he was able to predict decades / centuries in advance. Only the arrival of an aberration (The Mule) throws his predictive power to the wind.

3) Moreover, Seldon establishes a shadow group of telepaths, mathematicians, and psychologists, ostensibly to gaurd against aberrations such as The Mule, but whose ultimate goal is to eventually rule the galaxy on the blood and sweat of the First Foundation.

Galatic Empire novels --

1) Hyperspatial travel, once considered liberating, becomes the primary mechanism for inflicting human politics on an unsuspecting galaxy.

Robots of Dawn novels --

1) Robots initially free humanity from drudgery but eventually render the societies that use them vulnerable to a droid-phobic Earth. Earth wins the inevitable war between itself and the robot societies, but becomes uninhabitable.

Considering his background, Dr. Asimov had a certain autocratic streak.
Ask HN: What are the known AWS PITAs?
There seem to be known pains when using AWS, for example Reserved Instances:
" you can retire your “Ministry of RI Optimizations”. Stop playing RI tetris, seriously — the sadomasochism is entirely optional. " - from https://hackernoon.com/why-googles-answer-to-aws-reseved-instances-is-a-big-deal-4b9b36d8e631
Even AWS recognized this to be painful, which is why they announced today about flexible instance size with regional RIs https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/whats-new/2017/03/amazon-ec2-reserved-instances-now-offer-instance-size-flexibility-helping-you-reduce-your-ec2-bill/

It is as-if everyone knows that this is a painful thing, and just waits for AWS to do something about it.

What are other known pains when using AWS, or other public clouds?
If Facebook or Google were to be held liable for the content on their platforms they would not have the same business model that incentivizes outrageous and inflammatory nonsense. They wouldn't have business models that didn't directly attribute personal ownership over authored works.

This isn't about people being liable for spreading misinformation, this is about a business model that thrives on misinformation.
I hate these click-baity titles. I have decided to just flag them willy-nilly. They remind me too much of "one weird trick" and "he did ... and the result? amazing!"
>When a market is defined by mutually beneficial trade between consenting individuals coupled with free competition, how can exploitation arise in liquid markets?

Because as soon as there is a power imbalance, such as one person owning a factory and another's primary skill being working in such a factory, the mutually beneficial arrangements will nonetheless tend to benefit the one with power more than the one without. And over time these imbalances can amplify such that the wealthy capture more and more of the wealth they create.

>A large part of libertarian theory is that monopolies arise due to state intervention in the market

Some do, but I think natural monopolies can also exist, due to inherent barriers to entry in some industries. Things like natural resources, incumbent infrastructure, and network effects.

My grandmother's family arrived at the docks in England in the early depression years, and flipped a coin. Heads, Australia; Tails, Canada.

I don't know how the coin affected their happiness with the decision they made. All I know is that two generations later, I'm sitting in -9C temperatures in mid-march because of "tails".
I agree but I had a cynical chuckle there. Pedestrians and cyclists will not be banned "for their own safety". They will be banned for holding up traffic. Autonomous cars have to go slower whenever autonomous humans are nearby. Unpredictable humans slow the flow of traffic.

The linked speech says "A disruptive idea means it also upsets current ways of thinking, or current values, or current markets"

It explains why Instagram fits this definition: "Nikon and Canon have spent 80 years refining their cameras to produce good pictures. Instagram gives you a hundred ways to turn a good picture into a bad picture. The art world is built on a tradition of curation - by schools, museums, galleries, and critics. Instagram lets you upload every picture you take, to the public, within 5 seconds of taking it. Curation is done by "liking" a picture someone else has posted. And Instagram is free."

To me that seems reasonable enough. It's not implying anything about the value of the disruption.

What if you are running dozens of services each specializing in its own domain? Do you proxy each service through a pool of central webservers? Or do you just stand up a central auth server and have each service trust that auth server?
A little hacky, yes, but extremely effective. I wrote an image processing application for somewhat large time-series datasets (> 1TB) on Linux which took liberal advantage of these details to run very nicely on v2 Xeon processors. It also worked quite well for GUIs which interacted with the datasets.

> they may keep you up late on a Friday scrambling to deploy a token blacklist

Because every token has an iat datetime, you don't need a token blacklist to invalidate tokens. You just need some sort of tokens_invalid_if_issued_before_datetime setting that gets checked whenever you validate the signature of a token.

The alternative is to store a UUID for each user, and just rotate those whenever they log out, change or reset their password, or there is some sort of security event. These are then stored in the payload and used as a secret. The one advantage over just using dates is that with the former, there can be weird bugs if you have multiple servers with clocks that are out of sync.

But you shouldn't ever need to blacklist specific tokens, at least not unless you have some highly specialized use case.
On Android it's Menu -> Help & Settings -> App Settings -> Links open externally.

It's more buried than maybe it needs to be (to be fair there are a lot of obscure settings in this monster of an app), but basically findable.

Rather than crashing the thing, it's probably more productive for web developers with serious compatibility issues just to detect it and tell users how to find the setting.

Varstruct – struct-like types with runtime-computed array sizes
As I understand it, the Chinese replica market buys essentially all their movements as genuine goods from Japanese manufacturers like Seiko. The movements (i.e. the really complicated parts to make) for expensive quartz watches cost less than $50. So the Chinese don't have to replicate the tricky part, they just have to build a mechanical case from mineral or sapphire glass and stainless steel that's pressure tight to (usually) 10 or 20 bar, and fit a strap to it.

> This is stupid. If your key is generated from a pass phrase I guarantee you it's exponentially easier to guess than if it wasn't generated by some simple pass phrase.

I don't think the author ever claims that a password-derived key is more secure than a random one? This is clearly a conveniance vs security tradeoff, and it doesn't seem like an unreasonable one.
Avira Phantom VPN Pro Key 2.3.3 with Crack Full Version
I always considered the people that drive for Uber to be more of a means to an end for Uber. To me Uber wants people getting used to ordering a car service with an app and then being driven to their destination. So really having people as drivers is a stop gap measure until they get autonomous vehicles working and the equivalent of "the knowledge" of black cab drivers in London for everywhere else in the world. This is why they track you with the Uber app after you finish your ride, so that they can get the local knowledge stored.
I coin toss, but I don't let the outcome determine the action.

Instead I let how I feel about the outcome determine the action.

Most of the time a coin toss is not required as I am quite decisive, but if I feel particularly paralysed by an opportunity or decision, and unable to determine the best course of action... then I will toss a coin and look at the outcome, and decide whether or not I feel at peace with the outcome, whether there is regret.

I act on the immediate feeling of the outcome, not the outcome itself.
Probably not. If the Pg instance is replicated, as indicated above, it'll be challenging to keep the Memcached copy in sync. In other words, you can't just use the caching feature of your ORM, you'll need another piece.

JWT begs you to use public key because it makes sense for a lot of the use cases that people implement using JWT specifically having a single token issuer while having distributed token validation.

Using a public key algorithms makes also it easier to implement a sane key rollover strategy. I suspect this is the reason that Auth0 pushes their customers to validate tokens with public keys published on their JWKS endpoints.

As for X.509, I agree it kind of sucks but what are the alternatives?
Could be a good educational tool thanks to the simplicity. I encourage you to add more comment here and there.

Kudos.
Individuals who are told by the coin toss to make a change are much more likely to make a change and are happier six months later than those who were told by the coin to maintain the status quo.

I wonder if they removed the coin and just split people into groups that maintain status quo and groups that always make the change if the results would be similar. Perhaps the urge people have to consider the change in the first place is a good indicator that it is a change they actually do want to commit to.
