This argument doesn't follow. Your link explains why frivolous lawsuits are more of a myth than most people believe. You then proceed to lambaste people for people bowing to lawsuits which, your source contends, are probably more reasonable than you think.
Both Atlassian's "open core" and RHEL are free software.

The difference is that Atlassian sells plenty of proprietary software and add ons too, while the only proprietary software that Red Hat sells comes from recent acquisitions (e.g., Ansible Tower), and it is all in the process of becoming open source.

Red Hat has a great track record for open sourcing software from companies that they acquired.
I am very skeptical PBS would, given time, retain any amount of the high quality programs they have produced (Frontline, American Experience, Washington Week, etc.). Just look at how TLC, Discovery Channel, History Channel have changed over time to chase profits. PBS would become nothing but Antique Roadshow and shows like American Pickers which are only tangentially related to past history. PBS tackles current issues in ways no other channel provides.
What you're describing are really rare edge cases. Nearly all people on the sex offender registry actually did something that justifies being on there. And those people should not be put into a position of power over strangers at night.

As for economic hardship, I don't see how that justifies getting a job as a driver when your license is suspended. It's literally illegal for them to drive at all like that. It doesn't matter why it's suspended, people for whom it is illegal to be driving should not be given a job as a driver.
What is RCEP? 4 Things gYou should know
I don't know what kind of CPU bugs or float point behaviour deviations you think modern cpus have that will effect a game.. such things would cause most online games to immediately go out-of-sync, and in practice they don't, and while latency might effect player's enjoyment, it won't effect how fast they run / how high they jump.

The hardest part is the curved motions -- and also collision detection. Without ticks it's extremely hard to make collision detection repeatable.

I'm unaware of any recent notable multi-player game which don't run on a tick-based physics engine (I'd be interested if you could point me to some) -- that suggests to me that tick-based is necessary.

Sure, you can get things "closer" in tickless physics, but I've never seen anything non-trivial which can produce exactly the same results, for reasons of floating point: when (A+B)+C isn't the same as A+(B+C), it's very hard to make your game produce exactly the same results.

As you say, with a lot of work, you can get a 95% repeatable result with a tickless engine, but you can easily get 100% repeatable with a fixed time-step engine, and in practice it seems to make things work well enough, and is VASTLY easier.

How is Uber supposed to prove that they don't have the files? I'm asking purely from a legal / process perspective - would they have to turn over all their data to discovery, or something? If they legitimately don't have the files, how could they satisfy the judge? Or is it not possible that they don't have the files? What if Levandowski has the files on his home computer or something but they never touched Uber's system?
careful, some people are going to misinterpret your accurate assessment of laws that are completely benign to the collective conscious as a "whataboutism" simply because the soviets made equally accurate assessments of civil rights double standards
> accessing Jupyter is technically similar to allowing full shell-access and you have to deal with local privilege escalation

Some form of isolation - be it containers, or jails, or VMs - is going to be part of any solution precisely because of this.

I would actually dare say that FreeBSD jails are probably the best (most stable and secure) candidate of those available currently.

Those aren't narcotics (most likely). It was probably Novocaine or Lidocaine. Those drugs end in -caine because they're all part of the same family as cocaine, which is not actually a narcotic (but does have euphoric effects at sufficient dosing levels!).

Topical use of any of those drugs, however, will likely not produce euphoria.

They do not run advertisements related to products. It can be a fuzzy distinction in some cases, but the overall tone is very different in most.

I am simply hoping Apple is working on parts of Shuttleworths' vision where your iPhone becomes your daily driver. Just plug it in to your Display and have a fully fledged iOS/macOS hybrid version to work with.

Xiaomi is releasing the Mi6 in some weeks with 8 GB of RAM, so it's only a matter of time until we get comparable specs like we have in MacBooks or even Desktops in the smartphone form factor (which will be incredible in itself).
I can't help but think that almost every future biography of Putin will mention this law, and the most unflattering ones will contain examples. Sort of a long-term Streisand Effect.
Looks cool! My major problem though is that I'm fragmented across editors (currently between visual studio, atom and notepad++) and I can only try to match funcionality with some plugins.

> But I have a hard time imagining a specific scenario where you're accused of IP theft and a lawyer can't find a way to say "my client is not guilty of IP theft" without compromising their client.

Okay, how about where they actually physically have the documents that are the subject of the case, cooperating with discovery would reveal them, but they didn't actually use them in the new job or take them with intent, even though the other people accused alongside did actually steal smaller numbers of documents, and use them in the new job without your clients knowledge, so that your only real hope besides gambling on a jury's inferences of intent is that a criminal case is never initiated because your clients possession of the information doesn't come to light.

> At the very least, at some point, the client is going to have to enter that "not guilty" plea.

A plea is non-testimonial, does not open up cross examination, and does not open up threat of perjury. And, no, they don't have to do that if criminal charges are never filed, which is exactly what you are hoping for if you are invoking the Fifth in other circumstances because of potential future criminal prosecution.
I wish there was a third alternative to upvote/downvote -- "sounds like a good chap acting in good faith, but knows less than nothing of this subject".
data convergence is the future, not interface convergence. I think they made a serious mistake conflating the two.

You should be able to shift your view of a document from a desktop to a laptop, but that doesn't mean the fundamental interface from one should be shoe-horned into the other.

That could mean a phone that is docked, but when you have 10x the screen real estate, a keyboard and a mouse the interface should be different when docked vs when not docked.
This is an interesting talk, but it is substantially similar to the previous one that was already out there.

If Uber fires him, they run the risk of him throwing them under the bus, in exchange for legal leniency.

That's a problem with criminal conspiracies - you either have to stand by your partners, or hold a threat worse then jail time over their heads. Easy for a mob boss, less easy for a unicorn.

Part of the point that I got with cryptopals is how easy it is to break stuff that you thought was hard to break.

There is a theory that we practice on my team that you don't really understand something unless you try to break it. And this team regularly tells developers facts about their programs and systems that previously unknown to them.
Isn't the attack surface limited to the methods used in the application though? Even if libsodium has a vulnerability in some ABC method, unless the application in question uses that code path, it's not an immediate risk (Obviously it should get patched and stable, secure software is preferred over the alternative). I'm just trying to understand how the "attack surface" is calculated, and how a potential vuln in an unused method is a huge risk.
SRI shouldn't use static hashes, it should set pub keys of different people and the response must have N/M signatures. This way updates are possible and you know N people confirmed the source as safe.

I don't think so. Student Bruno Borges disappeared last Monday (3/27). His relatives called the police and broke the door to his room, discovering the whole occult/crypto content. Video/images made their way to news websites here in Brazil, and from then on theories about the content began to emerge. The website was made by people trying to decipher the books.
>"Tizen is not free software"

It's developed with the support of the Linux Foundation, with the code released under open source licences. There are some parts of the design that are licenced by Samsung (e.g the SDK), but overall it looks pretty open to me.

It has shipped in multiple devices, including every TV Samsung have sold since 2015:

https://wiki.tizen.org/wiki/Devices

>"It's a toy Samsung uses to threaten Google with."

It's a little more than that. At the moment it's not got much traction on phones, but I still maintain it's the best option for an open-source mobile OS that we've got left now that Ubuntu are out of the picture. If you can think of a better alternative that currently exists, by all means feel free to share it.
I was always under the impression that convergence for the end user meant having the same 'computer' spread across many devices. That your phone has access to the same files as your laptop as your tablet. That identity and rights management was shared and unified across all devices. That your devices natively formed a network, a sandboxed cloud.

I never understood it all looking the same, having a shared UI. The screen real-estate and input are too different to make a unified presentation. My biggest complaint about Windows 10 is that the power user on a laptop suffers for the imagined mobile user.

The funny part is, focusing on shared data and identity brings you closer to convergence than an elegant UI does.

Point RHEL releases are certainly exciting for desktop users. You get lots of driver and filesystem updates, and some point releases even rebased Mesa, X11 and GNOME. Plus, Software Collections such as Red Hat Developer Toolset provide updated MySQL/MariaDB, Ruby, Python, GCC, etc.
Many opiates produce a euphoric feeling, which in practice means a general 'warmness' in the body and pleasurable mental state. The senses are dulled, time dilation is common and the stresses and concerns of life are forgotten or at least reduced in importance.

For someone experiencing pain whether physical or emotional, the opportunity to escape that pain seems to me to be understandable if not well advised.

Opium -which I have tried once- was lovely. I don't like other opiates though, they provoke a minor allergic reaction consisting of itchiness and uncomfortable warmness I did not experience with opium. These were hydrocodone and other legally and appropriately prescribed medicines for a serious injury.
openSSLVerify is up to date. That's one more dependency than was up to date a year ago.

I don't really see why there are comments like this in this thread. Obviously they need to have a different UI, but Ubuntu Touch already offered a different UI depending on what it was running on. Or at least that was the idea. See the animation on https://www.ubuntu.com/mobile.

No one was trying to make a one-size-fits-all UI.

When I worked for a company that made label printers we had a potential customer who wanted us to print labels with human readable and barcode fields with 4 random letters and 4 random digits but did not want the letters to spell any obscene words.

In teaching a bunch of discrete math classes over the years, I've very rarely found someone for whom the "imagine it's 1000 doors" version helps at all. The only way that gives any insight is if you've already internalized the correct answer. It makes the numbers more extreme; it does nothing to make them make intuitive sense.

The version that helped you is the version that helps nearly everyone in my experience.

Outline of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting's FY2014 budget: http://www.cpb.org/files/aboutcpb/financials/budget/FY2014-O...

Out of a total budget of $445m:

~66% (292m) is distributed via direct grants to local public television and radio stations.

~17% (74m) goes to television programming grants.

~7% (30m) goes to radio programming.

~11% (59m) goes to system support and administration.

Murder in virtual reality should be illegal
This appears to be a "scaled up" (as in number of cells in the array) and "scaled down" (as in die size) as the old systolic array processors (going back quite a ways - 1980s and probably further).

As an example, the ALVINN self-driving vehicle used several such arrays for it's on-board processing.

I'm not absolutely certain that this is the same, but it has the "smell" of it.
Discovering Logical Vulnerabilities in the Wi-Fi Handshake [pdf]
There's very little waste in distribution. I read an article about chicken processing (I think it was on HN, in fact), and was amazed to see where all the pieces went - e.g. chicken feet from a processing in Arkansas were flash frozen and shipped to China. Parts that aren't edible by people get ground up and used for feed or fertilizer.

The waste is almost entirely on the consumer side.
Look into the history of OpenSSL vulns -- many are in obscure TLS paths that application developers did not intend to be supporting.

I think Heartbleed's even an example? Apparently there's some TLS ping ("heartbeat") command in the protocol that I'm pretty sure no-one actually asked for or uses in their applications, but there it is in the code, and so you're vulnerable as an application author.

I would like to challenge my hard-core religious physics and biology teacher from 7th grade with this evidence. He kept giving me as low a grade as what was acceptable, while I still aced pretty much every test. (Sweden. Småland. 90s. I don't think this is an issue for todays kids.)
If I understand the parent comment correctly, this is the advanced version of "proofs" of propositions in economics that just assume that dy/dx is defined in such a way that dy/dz = (dy/dx)(dx/dz). A mathematician would say "Let y: U\to V where U,V are open subsets of R^k and y\in C^1 (or C^\infty). Then..." and define clearly what's a function, what's a variable/number/vector and so forth.
What? Care to back up your claim at all instead of just traipsing in and saying "no"? I watch PBS every day and they are most certainly not commercials as your parent comment says. They generally are 10 seconds at most, have maybe two sentences about the company, and show the logo. Usually one of those sentences is "Company xxx is proud to support PBS".

I love milk. Left to my own devices, I go through between half a gallon and a gallon a day. With my family (1 daughter's lactose intolerant and drinks a lactose-free milk), I go through about a gallon a day on average of regular milk and maybe a quarter of that of the lactose-free stuff. I am aware that there are people who don't like milk, but I don't really get it, other than by analogy to foods I hate.
