> The Cold War didn't end after the fall of the wall, IMHO.

It didn't with the fall of the Beeline wall, but did with the fall of the USSR. Unfortunately, by the late 1990s (particularly, this was noted during the Serbia/Kosovo conflict and subsequent peacekeeping operation) a new Cold War had clearly started between NATO and Russia.

The alternative is either going back to remembering passwords, sharing passwords between sites, or writing them down, or to switch to a similar product that has fewer features and an unknown amount of bugs with likely worse vulnerabilities because there are fewer people looking for them

Right, although I didn't mean castling into check. I meant tempting a greedy algorithm by throwing away a high value piece (which was always a weakness of early chess machines), although I realize the tree search would spot that.

Also now that I'm awake, read the article fully now.

Very cool, makes me want to try building one!
Personally, I'd rather have the ability to create a chip for $5K.

It's too stupidly expensive for the CAD tools (>$100K) when a wafer run is less than $20K for a very old process nowadays.
Human history does not resemble horse history in the slightest. For example, horses do not adapt on a non-evolutionary time scale, but humans have adapted dramatically to changing circumstances all the time.

There is a lot of confusion in this thread.

dist-upgrade is NOT (in most cases) meant to upgrade to a newer distribution (eg. Ubuntu 14.04 to 16.04). dist-upgrade is just like upgrade except it also installs additional packages if necessary (eg. linux-kernel-4.1 AND linux-kernel-4.2).

Most people should always run "apt-get dist-upgrade" and never "apt-get upgrade" in order to simply keep their packages up-to-date.

An actual distribution upgrade is triggered by a different command. On Ubuntu: do-release-upgrade
I didn't address airgappedness at all, but you may still be wrong: we use the superintelligence's output, or else why would we have created it, so we are the channel by which it affects the world. Anyway, who knows what can be done by a superintelligence which can control a stream of electrons emitted from its own CPU!

Make code reviews your number one priority. Be the place that people want to put their code in, because they can review code, significantly easier on your site, as opposed to GitHub's.

This isn't really a high bar. Doing more than one iteration of code review with GitHub's tooling is a complete mess. In addition to that, both PR comments and Commit comments exist which can be extremely confusing if you do make one when you meant to make the other.

There is already other tooling which leverage GitHub's APIs to provide a nicer interface for code review.
What's the state of static type checking in closure? Is it accepted among the community? My uninformed impression is that runtime checking via specs won?
Again, you can sit around here complaining about 'victim blaming' all you want, but you aren't actually providing any real solutions. Thus you're just wasting everyone's time by doing so, including your own. It doesn't fucking matter whether it's victim blaming. Victim blaming is irrelevant. Being sent rude messages on the internet is a minor wrong, and so nobody is actually in any serious way a victim, and they do deserve to be blamed if they reveal their address or phone number or something on the internet, that's blatantly foolish and everyone has said that it is foolish and not to do it for decades.

The reality is that the internet is not a one-way medium. Long gone are the days where you can just send and never receive. Well, that isn't even true, because you can send and never receive. What you can't do is take the 'send and never receive' attitude of old and try to apply it while also receiving. You can't pick and choose what messages you get. You can't, and you shouldn't try to. It's a loser's game. You will never succeed, thank the lord. Because there are those of us out there who don't want to have everything filtered and controlled by some algorithm that decides what is rude or not, and that's the reality of how Twitter or Facebook would be censored: the same algorithms that are used as justification for racial profiling and which produced the lovely Taylor Swift twitter bot that Microsoft had (which started spouting feminist propaganda as soon as they removed its learning abilities, I should add) would be used to censor Twitter and Facebook.

If people's information is gleaned from whois records or whatever, then yes obviously that's terrible. If you go out of your way to protect your own privacy - or just don't foolishly reveal it to the world - and then it gets out anyway, obviously that's a bad thing and it's not your fault.

What we're talking about are the people that use sites like Twitter, and then get upset when someone sends them a rude message on Twitter. We're not even talking about physical hate mail here people. We're talking about literally people getting messages on Twitter, getting offended, and writing patronising articles about it. If you choose to use that cesspool of a site, then you ARE asking for it.
Firstly, don't extrapolate and call everyone that's had something rude said to them on the internet a 'victim' just because a very few people have been on the receiving end of genuine harassment.

Secondly, nobody is 'telling them to hide'. You can filter out your twitter replies, you can just not read that material. You can read it and say 'wow there are a few nasty people on the internet'. That's up to you. You can also, yes, remove yourself from toxic, shitty sites like Twitter. But what you shouldn't do is read all the nasty shit and then go 'hey this shit is nasty'. Like, yeah, of course it is. What do you expect? That everyone likes you? Stop hitting yourself.

TotalBiscuit, a minor YouTube celebrity, has said a few times that he's disabled YouTube comments not because he wants to isolate himself from criticism or because he is so offended and thinks those people should be banned from the internet, but because he had a morbid obsession with reading through all the comments even though he knew some things in there would make him feel hurt. He had a problem (he couldn't stop himself from reading things he knew he'd not like) and so he found a solution: disable the comments on YouTube, and only interact with people on a subreddit that he has people he trusts moderate. That's not 'cowering in fear', it's being an adult and solving problems. He's doing basically the same thing celebrities have been doing with fanmail for centuries: getting someone to filter it out for him.

I'm sure many people could get someone to do the same thing with their Twitter replies, and I'm sure many people do. That's your choice, that's their choice. It's not 'abdicating social responsibility', it's not hiding, it's being pragmatic and creating a practical solution to a problem. It doesn't restrict the actions or freedom of others, it doesn't get people arrested or banned from Twitter, it stops you from seeing things you don't like. It's like installing AdBlock instead of legislating that internet ads should not contain pornography because your kids use the computer.

How do you propose to 'try to stop them' anyway? I definitely think that real sources of real personal information, like whois records, need an overhaul. It needs to be possible to register a domain, register a company, etc. in a way that still involves your identity (so that people can dispute copyright, Government can collect taxes, you can be arrested if you're hosting child pornography, etc.) without letting any random person on the internet type in a shell command and getting my home address. And it shouldn't just be 'the Government can access it and nobody else can', that's a shitty solution (although probably better than the current one).

Ignoring that (which is a real problem, unlike 'OMG I got a nasty message on twitter telling me to kill myself, whatever shall I do? Shall I just ignore it, like an adult? No, I'm going to throw a tantrum about it despite being a 26-year-old professional journalist'), what do you propose that 'we' as 'society' should 'do' about the 'problem' of people sending rude messages on Twitter?
That's stupid and you know it. No matter how much you might want it to be otherwise, people exist. People disagree with you. To varying degrees, they might be hostile about it. Some would characterise my comments in this thread as hostile and worthy of being censored. I think that's ludicrous, and yet there we are.

I think everyone can agree that the most egregious examples of harassment are bad. Sending someone a new picture of gore from a newly created Twitter account every hour for years (or whatever example is trotted out every time this comes up) or scouring DNS records for their address and swatting someone? Yeah obviously that's bad, we all know that's bad. Those are harassment to the level of being criminal offences anyway, there are ways to deal with them.

And I think that everyone agrees that telling someone that their ideas are 'stupid and naive' is perhaps a little hostile, but not to the extent that it needs to be censored.

So what's the middle ground? Are we allowed to swear? Are we going to apply the Americans' ideas of what is offensive to the internet? Because I sure as fuck don't come from America and I sure as fuck don't appreciate being told what is and is not acceptable from a country where it's illegal to say the word 'shit' on TV but it's legal for the Westboro Baptist Church to harass people mourning at the military funerals of gay soldiers. You can sort your own shit out before you start policing the language and behaviour of people in other countries talking to other people from other countries over the international medium that is the internet.

If you want to filter offensive language from your twitter replies, go ahead. Twitter and Facebook are already incredibly filtered thought bubbles, that ship has sailed. It's not going to get any worse if you can automatically filter out everything with language you find 'offensive'.

But this 'let's build a future internet without assholes' stuff is pathetic. What I consider an arsehole, you might consider someone just defending their pronouns or whatever it was that kid stabbed his teacher for the other day.
No, I don't understand why people want anonymity while also demanding that people can't anonymously send them messages on a public platform the entire point of which is the sending of messages.

People want to be anonymous, but don't want just anyone to be able to send them messages. Okay, so who can send you messages? Who can post things you can see? What is your solution to this?
Being business-friendly is not and should not be anyone's goal in licensing software. Being business-friendly is shit.

No he is pointing out irony. He is saying that a lot of people feel like they should be anonymous, but that others, fit whatever reason shouldn't be allowed to. Celebrities, pundits etc.

Flip side with the mentorship thing is not blocking out the senior dev's time to do the mentoring.

If the senior dev is supposed to mentor his junior teammates with no impact on the number of story points he grinds through then it's not reasonable for him to relish the thought of spending time peering with colleagues that he'll have to make up after hours.
Out of curiosity, what LastPass features are you missing in 1Password[0] or Dashlane[1]?

These two products are very feature-complete (at least for my usage) and have as much attention as LastPass (with for example Tavis Ormandy working on both). They even publish information about their security model[2][3], which LastPass does not.

LastPass has proven repeatedly that it is not robust enough for storing passwords. Fewer or less important vulnerabilities reported does not equate to less security.

Really? Because every analysis I've seen has suggested that Uber is basically subsidizing rides with VC money until some new element (the main hope seems to be self-driving vehicles) let's them transform their business into something that could be profitable.

Aren't there opportunities for arbitrage given the zero transactional costs on Robinhood?

I haven't thought it through that much, but it feels like a lot of sound trading strategies (which were previously impractical due to high transactional costs) can be made to work on Robinhood.

"Wikileaks offers £20,000 reward for #LabourLeaks with information on how the Labour Party’s top officials have attempted to stop Jeremy Corbyn becoming and staying on as leader.

"With our #DNCleaks, Wikileaks exposed how those at the top of the US Democratic Party had worked tirelessly to tilt the scales in favour of Hillary Clinton as she faced off against Bernie Sanders in the race to be the Democrat presidential candidate. Our revelations eventually prompted the resignation of five of the most senior members of the Democratic Party in the aftermath of the Democratic Convention, including DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz...."

I was never able to convince my coworkers to program in FPGA HLLs, just because when you need to debug and simulate, you have to touch VHDL/Verilog in order to communicate with the board and understand what your high level abstraction is compiling to (not to mention the great deal of work that relies on tweaking and instantiating FPGA parameters like clock lines, buffers, DSP cells, etc). And actually this takes up the majority of the design time... so to make a software analogy, why bother writing in Scala when you have to verify and debug at at the assembly level?
I guess I misinterpreted your comment as well.

>Waterloo is known for being mediocre/trash for CS research

Are you out of your mind?

Do you know why Waterloo's School of Computer Science is named after David R. Cheriton?

Yeah, the same DRC who made a major exit to Cisco, seed funded Google and hold an emeritus professorship at Stanford.

A sizeable chunk of the people who published Spark have done their undergrad' or research masters at UW.

Waterloo is definitely top-notch at the undergrad', perhaps less impressive than schools with bigger endowment at the research level, but far from being "trash". Tons of Waterloo profs are on the steering committees of major CS conferences (VLDB most notably).

This comment is so puerile, it has to be written by some jealous and petty undergraduate student. Or so I hope.
I already patched my coreutils on my development machine and I am way more productive now!
You're missing the point.

Can we agree that people are learning a programming language that they call "C", and writing text files in that language and running programs that they call "C compilers" such as gcc on those text files to produce binary executables?

You are correct to note that the programming language I'm describing does not perfectly conform to any of the documents that are ever called a "C standard". But that programming language is central to our computing infrastructure, and whether you or C standard authors like it or not that programming language is widely called "C".

That language's semantics are unclear and incomplete---even though both gcc and clang are commonly called "C compilers", they have differing behavior on `f(i++, i++)` as you found; reportedly, there's code on which gcc behaves differently depending on the optimization level option.
