Yes I also use brain.fm and Bose headphones, but that doesn't help this situation where all of a sudden 10 guys appear behind you and discuss about something else among themselves totally irrelevant to you.

Even though I won't be able to fully hear their voices, I get distracted. Sometimes I doubt that I am very vulnerable.
You don't know what you're talking about. The rules went into effect January 3rd: https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2016/12/02/2016-28...

They used the Congressional Review Act to strike it down, which requires that it be a new federal regulation: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Congressional_Review_Act

The CRA includes this, too, so the FCC can no longer do anything about it without a new law passed by Congress:

Once a rule is thus repealed, the CRA also prohibits the reissuing of the rule in substantially the same form or the issuing of a new rule that is substantially the same, "unless the reissued or new rule is specifically authorized by a law enacted after the date of the joint resolution disapproving the original rule"
It restores a prior status quo that was well through the pipeline to being inoperative--thus, "voted to repeal". The status quo is that this was ending, and changing that literally required an act of Congress and the president's signature. There's nothing fake about this news, it's perfectly accurate.
I like Private Internet Access. The're usually ranked pretty high by privacy advocates and they don't keep logs.

If anyone in Portland, OR is looking for an ISP that will respect your privacy, you might try reaching out to Stephouse (https://www.stephouse.net/).

I recently switched to them from Comcast, and this news makes me all the happier that I did.
Many regions in Germany accomplish this through heavy uses of Tracking[1] which, regardless of your stance on it, is a political non-starter in the US.

One place I visited (it varies heavily with region), the students were sorted towards Gymnasium (college prep) or Realschule (ends at 10th grade with a sight towards job, apprenticeship, or further vocational training) around 3rd grade. Good luck implementing that in the US.
How nice you can do that. I'll just call 1-800-COMCAST and see what they have to say. I mean, if I cancel, I guess I can get DSL at a tenth of the speed maybe.
You are deliberately misrepresenting my statement in order to cover up your own misrepresentations: in context, I was referring to the status quo of the law (or executive rules, I don't know if we're calling those laws this week or not). This is evidenced by my immediate reference to the phrase "no longer [need]"; not "no longer feel pressured" or "no longer take precaution" or "no longer desire", but no longer "need", i.e. be compelled by law.
Awesome article. Thank you.
What difference are you talking about? A regulation is based on law passed by Congress and signed by the president.
How will you know if they do start selling the data. Plans change when someone comes knocking with a large bag of cash (theoretically).
Containers are just advanced chroots. They do the same with the network interface, process list and your local user list as chroot is doing with your filesystem. In addition, containers often throttle resource consumption of CPU, memory, block I/O and network I/O of the running application to have some QoS for other colocated applications in the same machine.

It is the spot between chroot and VM. Looks like a VM from the inside, provides some degree of resource usage QoS and does not require you to run a full operating system like a VM.

Another concept that is now also often automatically connected to containers is the distribution mechanism that Docker brought. While provisioning is an orthogonal topic to runtime, it is nice that these two operational topics are solved at the same time in a convinient way.

rkt did some nice work to allow you to choose the runtime isolation level while sticking to the same provisioning mechanism:

Do they carve by block/building?
I might be wildly misreading the code, but it seems like [1,2,3,a,b,c] diffed with [a,b,c,1,2,3] is going to appear as six lines of replacement.

The table will be {a :(1,1), b :(1,1), ...} because each line appears in both files exactly once.

do {
c = a;
d = b;
// first pass a=0, b=0
// the lines aren't equal, they're "1" and "a" so we pass this case.
if (one[a] === two[b]) {
equality();
} else {
//one[0] is "1", matching 1:(1,1)
//two[0] is "a", matching a:(1,1)
if (table[one[a]].two < 1 && table[two[b]].one < 1) {
//can't get here
replaceUniques();
} else if (table[one[a]].two < 1 && one[a + 1] !== two[b + 2]) {
// 1:(1,1) cdr not less than 1, so this is out
deletion();
} else if (table[two[b]].one < 1 && one[a + 2] !== two[b + 1]) {
// a:(1,1) car not less than 1, so this is out
insertion();
} else if (table[one[a]].one - table[one[a]].two === 1 && one[a + 1] !== two[b + 2]) {
// 0 === one[a+1] !== two[b+2]
// === "2" !== "c"
// === true
deletionStatic();
} else if (table[two[b]].two - table[two[b]].one === 1 && one[a + 2] !== two[b + 1]) {
// 0 === one[a+2] !== two[b+1]
// === "3" !== "b"
// === true
insertionStatic();
} else {
// so we're stuck replacing.
replacement();
}
}
a += 1;
b += 1;
} while (a < lena && b < lenb);

it's very pretty, it just seems like it's not not doing enough lookahead to find those long distance relationships.

(although i didn't run it, i could have screwed up my interpretation)

in my limited experience, diff is very hard.

edit

fixed a couple typos in the comments.

yeah, three deletes and three inserts showing at least 3 lines of equality is preferable. ideally it'd show a single edit, move of 3 lines, but that's really hard to do.
Also to note: when I worked retail, I was significantly less active than when I started working software. With retail, my feet just hurt too damn much for me to want to play sports on my days off. When I started a software job, I had 3 weekly semi-organized games I played in most weeks, as well as occasional pickup games on other days.
Interesting. Your post got me to finally look up the history of this [1]. Apparently it was a woman with an umbrella in a 1975 study, but made extreme by Simons in 1992 with the gorilla. The moonwalking bear is apparently from a 2008 Transport for London advertisement [2] to remind people to see cyclists.

I really hope this doesn't see adoption in many cases. I can see it being okay in places where abuse is an issue, but I use different disposable email services specifically because I don't want spam or my actual email exposed in the endless stream of breaches.

I don't want Best Buy Rewards, etc. having my email to sell.
Sure, I can explain it in one word: Republicans.
Thanks for the thoughts. A couple of points.

As far as I understand, not most of American children are growing in poverty. There are figures of 20-25% of children living in poverty, but even there the numbers are skewed - here poverty is measured before social security transfers that are meant to alleviate poverty. So those numbers are just carefully selected to make the problem look worse. If you look at the post-welfare poverty figures, they are in the few percent range. If the same methods were applied in Europe, we might have a higher child poverty rate because average income is lower and living cost is higher.

(Only trust statistics you've forged yourself.)

Over here, the marriage status of mothers does not impact their welfare payments - their co-habiting status does. A big difference here (in Nordic countries) is that we have a Big Brother society where people actually report to the authorities where they live and everyone has an official address. You need an official address to get welfare (though you don't need a home). As a result, the new partner marrying (or not) has no impact on welfare payments of families with children; if the couple moves together, they are treated as two parents. Yes, the privacy in U.S. creates some perverse incentives, in this case to not to commit to a marriage.

As a result of the Big Brother thing, we don't do door-to-door census here, there's just someone who says things like SELECT COUNT(person_id) FROM persons WHERE permanent_resident=true; and it's actually reliable, except perhaps for some parts of the recent wave of immigration from Middle East which is creating a totally new class of paperless people.

Anyway, I agree and appreciate your point. People actually seem to like being and feeling victims, which results in more victims.

PS. The engineer in me can't help correcting that it's flak, not flack, because the word comes from German.
> For example, I've heard from a small but non-trivial number of swing supporters that they would have voted for Sanders, but instead voted for Trump.

If there's a sizeable proportion of people like that, they'd be able to get their candidate in the primary. By and large you need far fewer votes to win the primary than to win the general.

It always surprises me that there are people who don't bother to vote in the first round of voting, and then complain about the quality of candidates that made it to the second round. Well, yeah; you can't sit things out and hope that other people will pick the person you like. Only 28.5% of eligible voters voted in the presidential primary in 2016 (and non-presidential primaries often have lower turnout).
you can but you have to send the who screen/device rather than the usual chromecasting. You use the home app
Though, to be fair, a 'real' Lisp interpreter often provides more interactive features. The Lisp interpreter sees the code as Lisp data and interprets that. This enables a few things.
VPN question. If you take out a credit card and pay for a cloud solution (aws,etc) and run this software, isn't your identity clearly tracked back to you via your one exit ip? It seems if you want to use VPN services you would want to be in a pool of users with many exit nodes - and have deniability?
Please read your source more carefully:

> Effective January 3, 2017, except for §§ 64.2003, 64.2004, 64.2006, and 64.2011(b) which contain information collection requirements that have not yet been approved by OMB.

The section in question in the article is 64.2004. It did not go into effect on January 3.
You're not the only one. I'm nearly identical. Losing access to $1k for a year or two (with the ability to get it back within a few weeks) is completely a non-factor, and since it increases my chance of a $7500 rebate, seems like a pretty good investment, actually.

Also, same feeling of 'meh' based on leaks so far. I was really hoping for a scaled down S with fewer amenities, lower performance, etc. rather than something from scratch. The no dashboard instrument cluster thing bugs me, as does the fact that AWD won't be available initially (hurting the chances of the rebate if I want AWD), but I'll wait until at least the final reveal if not later to make my decision.
Bose QC 35. I wish the noise cancellation was adjustable and better. I mean it is good. But I'm one of those people who actually wants to be encased in a cocoon of total silence any time I choose.

Some examples. Sitting outside in a noisy cafe, with NC and white noise playing: zero background noise.

Same setup without a track playing, only NC: I can hear everything, but it's just quieter. Voices, cars still there. Not acceptable.

The way I interpreted the promise of NC was it would actually play the inverse wave and cancel everything. I don't understand why some sound gets through. And I feel cheated.

I don't think my expectation was unrealistic because it was based on the following episode. I was on a plane and the Qatari American guy next to me chatted to me about films. When our conversation died he started watching movies, with some huge black headphones. I asked him about them. And he told me they were NC and asked if I'd like to try. I put them on, then he pushed one button on the side and whsp! Every noise disappeared! The plane engine was gone. He kept talking but it was gone too. It was literally a religious moment for me. I glimpsed another world I didn't know existed. I never knew I could end all the noise. So naturally I had to get myself a pair. I asked what they were and he said Bose QC. They were from a few years ago. So you see I thought I'd found something I could trust.

At Yodobashi Camera I was so excited to buy my QC 35. But when I used them, I could not rationalise away my disappointment. It was qualitatively different. On the plane those headphones had clearly put my ears in a pressurized bubble. Of total silence. But the QC 35 was just like God had turned the world volume down a third of the way. Really not good enough.

So now I still wear them, but I'm always playing tracks. At least I've discovered Spotify. But I still think I'd much rather prefer, the Total Noise Cancellation my first experience promised. Now sometimes I even go back and question the trustworthiness the guy who introduced me to NC such is the magnitude of the difference between my expectation and the reality. Did that Qatari American guy trick me? Did he just start mouthing silently as soon as he pressed the NC button? Or did that NC tech really cut everything? And if the tech was legit, did Qatar or 2014 get better NC tech than Japan or 2017? Why has Bose foresaken me?
Spacewar! was one of my absolute favourites back in the day. My business partner at the time and I wasted many an hour side by side on the keyboard on an IBM PC/XT trying to outdo each other.

I wonder if there is a browser version, or iOS version around these days?? Would love to revisit it for nostalgic reasons.
The problem with America is there is no competition in most areas. When there is it's usually just two big providers you're stuck picking between and they will both tell you to sod off. If this were many other parts of the world that have dealt with the monopoly problem correctly, by splitting the provision of wholesale last mile service from the retail ISP service there could be a market overnight for ISPs that respect your privacy. But we don't have that. We have a vertical monopoly. That means we need regulation to protect consumers. But now we can't rely on regulation either.
There are Windows Server containers. Docker runs on FreeBSD using jails and Solaris using zones. Hyper runs containers on hypervisors and RancherVM on KVM.

Container now has two meanings: the isolated application, and the container-based virtualization on Linux. The latter is the original usage (LXC is older than Docker).

But the important innovation of Docker is combining containers with image distribution. The isolated application is more general then virtual machine so the concept is extended to other virtualization techniques.
nice and soft -.o
Literally not being used "literally literally" here. But cleaning up lab stuff is the figurative mop.
Because the vast majority of use cases are already solved by zones/VMs.
Yeah, like doors or Windows in your home. Take it however you like.
He's differentiating between a rule put forth by an administrative agency like the FCC, calling it a "regulation", as opposed to a law passed through conventional means. Laws are sometimes considered "more valid" because they've, at least hypothetically, been through the process designed to allow the people's voice to be manifest on them (approval from elected reps + elected prez), whereas rules put forth by agencies are promulgated by unelected presidential appointees and their staff.

You are correct that in the general sense, the term "regulation" applies equally to laws intended to restrict some commercial behaviors as well as rules put forth by agencies with regulatory powers like the FCC.
Check back in 10, 20, 30 years when they run the world.
Indeed, I think nearly every section of the chapter on configuration requires you to know the contents of all the other sections for it to make sense. I have probably spent a few hours going over that one chapter at this point...
Heh. Thanks for the info.

I just checked, I read about this at http://rachelbythebay.com/w/2016/04/17/unprotected/.

I must admit that I am very curious why "git and 64 other files in /usr/bin are all the same size (18176 bytes on my machine)", why dtruss and strings fail, and what behavior changes when you turn rootless off.
I like Private Internet Access for most uses (the inline adblock is particularly nice as a way to save data on unrooted phones), and NordVPN for things like Netflix, or easy dual-VPN. Been using them for a while, they're both great.
No.

So they took the easy way out and removed the videos.
What is the benefit of this over using a provider like PIA? PIA claims to store no logs, and this claim is supported with evidence that government entities could not force them to turn over any logs. But if you use a provider like Digital Ocean and run your own VPN, then Digital Ocean can and will log all connections and traffic to and from the VPN, and if a government entity of any sort ever approached them for any reason (such as if self-hosting VPNs became commonplace with DO, and the NSA wanted to suck all that data up), they'd hand it all over immediately.
I wasn't sure if pods shared mount namespace or just the external volumes. It sounds like the same external volumes are mounted in each container but the rest of mounts are different.
There is a semantic difference between a law i.e. something passed by Congress and signed by the president versus a regulation promulgated by a regulatory body. That regulatory body dervies it's power to regulate from law. But in a purely technical sense it is not a law.
Good thing all these pro-business republicans are all about competition and marketplaces! /s
I'm not going to upload a Word document to some website I never heard of before just to get a hash from it.

Give me some idea of what this website does and examples of why it could be useful to me or others here.
How Blockchain Will Transform Business [Bitcoin, Ethereum, Monero]
Maybe we should all start running a script that browses random websites at random times. Seems to me that would go a long ways towards making the data collected about as valuable as a magic 8 ball. It would be even better if such a script could actually look at my real browsing history and try to generate the most confusing anti-traffic. If I search for cats it searches for dogs and birds. If I check the weather for zip code X it checks it for zip code Y and Z.
It depends on your threat model. If you want anonymity, you'll have to take further steps. Self-hosting on a VPS that's linked to you protects you only from your ISP, which is enough if you're concerned about your ISP selling your traffic data. Of course, you'll need to trust your VPS' outbound ISP... but I think it's fairly reasonable to assume that consumer ISPs are more likely to sell your data than larger providers.
I don't think I could do this in good conscience. It would be like touring a Nazi concentration camp. In 1940.

FSJS #88 – Best from JavaScript world (a weekly digest)
Algo's stated goal is explicitly not to provide anonymity. It is to secure connections made on untrusted networks, e.g. while traveling. It will work for the use case being discussed w/r/t ISPs collecting and selling your usage info, too, because it's not about hiding who you are, it's about preventing your ISP from seeing the final destination of your requests.
I'll take what I can get :) The damage is done and I think Google should help route around it.

Of course I agree with you that attacking the policy is also very important, but people still have to use the Internet every day. I'm not asking Google to do this as a policy statement - but as a practical matter. They can solve this problem for users by running a VPN for everyone and also web proxy via https://www.google.com which nobody could really filter.

This does not take away from the importance of attacking this policy.

> In fact, nobody guarantees that say Fedora will run on an Ubuntu-built kernel.

"nobody guarantees" just means that you can't externalize the work of trying it and seeing if it works. I don't think that's a huge loss, considering the space of all possible kernels, configuration switches, patches and distro packages is huge.

It's like refusing to use a hammer because nobody can assure you that hammer A was thoroughly tested with nail type B.
You place full trust in the provider of your VPN. If you'd like to use PIA, you have to trust them -- and you can make your own decisions about that. I think it's fairly reasonable to trust them based on available evidence, but it really depends on your threat model.
I do not understand. I thought that in the current climate, where people are becoming increasingly aware and concerned about privacy, that such laws would be expanded in scope. But here, the law is being repealed.

Additionally, I find the implications of this kind of admission to be astonishing: Last year, the Federal Communications Commission pushed through, on a party-line vote, privacy regulations designed to benefit one group of favoured companies over another group of disfavoured companies. That's a pretty huge statement, made in a business-as-usual kind of way, that calls into question the overall integrity of the FCC.
I think people are having an issue with the story at face value - binning people into groups and then taking advantage of that.

It is demeaning and patronizing to hear that you're victim and your race should be what defines you.

The author is trying to say "Here look at the cool business I built with a lot of work and talent. Check out the algorithm I am using etc." and journalist wants to instead write about "Poor black person somehow made it out of a poor neighborhood. Let's point out his race over and over...".
Yes, but you still need a server to connect them to.
The threat in this model is not the government, but rather from a private isp selling usage data attached to your name.

As you are a paying customer it is not in Digital Ocean's interest to sell usage stats attached to real identities. This somehow is not the case for Comcast.
In the "Selected Past Work" section there's "Natural Language Datalog" which I would be interested learning more about, but the link seems to be wrong. Anyone knows where to find more info on it? My google skills are failing me.
This indicates to me an architectural flaw with the internet. We need to start exploring other techniques to circumvent tracking, perhaps through more distributed systems. The politicians can not be trusted.
I used to have a problem with emacs. But just a few days ago I finally sat down to finally learn it and now, 2 days later, can no longer imagine life without it.
