Not all mentally ill people need to be coddled and babied either. I learned that the hard way. Sometimes they are just hopelessly destructive to the people around them, and themselves, and the only 'solution' is to walk away from the relationship or keep it at a distance, otherwise it can be a black hole of wasted emotional energy and effort better left to professionals.

Calling someone out for negative/destructive/selfish behaviour is not always 'shaming' them either. Mental illness is not a get away with anything card. I've also learned from personal experience that not all mental illness is static either, a lot can be done to minimize issues, for ex by medication and cognitive therapy. Just as I've found some people don't entirely benefit from such help/effort either.

The key is finding the middle ground. But I do agree it's better to give someone with mental illness the benefit of the doubt things are not intentional. But this isn't always about blame or causation, we all have to live in the same world too.

A user can only see the salaries of all his direct reports.

Again, there's a reason why almost every web app built in the last twenty years just used user/pass credentials and didn't implement db security beyond that: expressiveness.

What you're asking for can't really exist. If it could I'd provide it for you in spaCy.

There's not really any such thing as "sentiment". You can classify reviews as positive or negative, and then train a model to reproduce those annotations pretty accurately. But a model trained to do that is unlikely to do anything useful for your task --- the knowledge for your task is quite different.

You need to create some labelled data and train your own text classification model. There are tonnes of tools for this. Scikit-Learn, Fast-Text and Vowpal Wabbit are all good places to look, for different use-cases.

Your cynical view may be correct; but that does not mean that she should absolve the FSF of wrong doing.

No one was upset that she thought the FSF discriminated against her friend; the problem was the way she dealt with the issue, and that is what she was apologizing for.

What's the possibility of using this exploit to patch the vulnerable Android systems?.. or to root the phone? It'd be an interesting solution against the time we'll have to wait for carrier services/manufactures to straighten themselves up.

No, the FDA thinks it can decide whether someone can sell a product claiming to diagnose disease. Because, fairly explicitly in the Food, Drug, and Cosmetics Act, it can, and, in fact, is obligated to.
The request for the user's details from the government doesn't allege illegal leaking of information, so why is that relevant?
Many drivers bypass the network effect risk by running both Uber and Lyft apps simultaneously. If a driver prefers Lyft but doesn't get frequent riders with Lyft, he or she can still get some riders.

A rider can do the same by attempting to get a ride with their preferred app, then the dominant one. It's annoying, but surely possible.

How many Duck Duck Go users say "I search with the default search, don't find what I want. Then I do !g and I find what I'm looking for."

They're still making the most of the non-dominant platform.

> For example, how do you like the fact that init now comes with "hidden" timers ? After you've scoured every place that a "traditional" Linux might put scheduled tasks, you've come to the realization "Ooooh, now my init has its own cron!"

They're not "hidden", just managed with systemctl like other services, you can still use regular cron if you'd like.

As to the rationale of including timers, it is for stuff like mounting and unmounting remote disks etc, at boot, which I personally would include under the responsibilites of a modern init system and 'system manager' in general, same with taking care of TRIM every so often etc., but I appreciate that it isn't for everyone.

> Or the subtle way it breaks existing SysV compatibility.

The SysV init scripts would regurarly break in subtle ways by themselves to be honest, I find systemd a much saner option.

> How about the systemd-hostnamed service? Why on earth would we need a service to change the hostname? And why should it care about the "chasis type" of the machine?

The systemd network stack is entirely optional and intended for scenario where you can't afford/don't need the 'fatness' of NetworkManager, just because it's there, doesn't mean you have to use it.

If you are interested in looking at the model in more detail, we (@harvardnlp) have uploaded the model features to LSTMVis [1]. We ran their code on amazon reviews and are showing a subset of the learned features. Haven't had a chance to look further yet, but it is interesting to play with.

Yes, it's important to read such claims exactly and literally - as the OP states, "Roman Italy had comparable per capita income to the Dutch Republic in 1600". Assuming that this is true, it is still clear that Roman Empire and even more so Roman Egypt did not have a comparable income.

Roman Italy was fed and clothed by products of non-Italian economies; It's easy to get a multiplier of your GDP if you have landowners that "farm" overseas land with overseas slave labor that isn't part of your economy consumption.
Creating a Scalable Application Using Docker and Rancher and RancherOs and Cattle
"unless the laboratory's legal and regulatory [...]"

That [...] could hide a lot of shady stuff being done via NSLs (etc.).

EDIT: There is a very interesting issue here, though, namely how the findings by 23andme are presented to their customers. There's good research that shows that presenting relative probabilities[2] (as opposed to just picking a sample size and doing everything in numbers relative to that) is very hard to understand for the general public (and even for statisticians unless they're paying close attention!). The Base Rate Fallacy is basically a consequence of presentation. Hopefully, 23andme are doing this responsibly, but I honestly don't know.

[2]: Example: "Eating X increases risk of cancer by 50%". Well, yeah, that might change my risk of cancer from 0.01% to 0.015%, but that that's not something I should worry about. Yet, we see these headlines because they grab people's attention.
I wonder, does doing something like this for the greater good make it the right choice in the long term? Creating a bot that enforces good security by bricking your devices would be a really bad experience for the users affected now, but if it finally gets these IoT companies to be serious about security it might be the right move in the long term.

That said, I'd imagine this is still very much illegal, and am not saying I'd advocate anyone writing bots like this.

I was unclear. When I say $X I don't mean a flat amount per fare. (You are correct in that regard.) I mean an agreed upon payment formula of $y * miles + $z * miles = $X. That formula is not secret. And does not contain $fare as a variable.
I tried using the Steam Link, and it's not user-friendly at all.

Steam Big Picture works fine until there's a single problem and then all bets are off.

The problem with what 23andme was doing is going direct-to-consumer with tests that were potentially sketchy. If you're willing to risk sketchy information you can find all kinds of bleeding edge research on your particular genetic makeup and choose how to handle it.
Snowplow Analytics | Open-Source Engineer | Remote, INTERN.

Snowplow Analytics is looking for 1-2 open source software interns this Summer (May through August), for a 8-12 week paid internship. Our interns will work directly on and contribute to projects within the Snowplow open source stack (https://github.com/snowplow). A Snowplow intern loves coding, enjoys experimenting with new technologies and is happiest working "in the open" on community/team projects. Technologies we use at Snowplow include Scala, Rust, Go, Hadoop, Kinesis, Redshift, Spark, Akka and Kafka.

This is a paid internship; we will consider remote candidates who are up to UTC +/- 5 hours maximum. Interested? Please email intern@snowplowanalytics.com, and tell us about a piece of software you are proud to have written. (And don't be afraid to suggest specific projects/initiatives/features that you would like to work on in your internship.)

For background on two of our recent internship programs check out:

>You buy a product or a service? The person you bought it from is 100% responsible.

They are only responsible to the extent that their contract with you allows for. Taking the example of safety deposit boxes, banks will make you sign a contract that removes liability, except in the case of gross negligence. What constitutes gross negligence is up to a court to decide. Applying that to being the victim of a cyber-attack or robbery, I don't recall a court ever not siding with a bank. Of course I don't know every single case, but maybe you can dig one up, since you seem quite motivated here.

In Australia, we're breathalyzed and if it's positive we go back to the police station/mobile testing unit for a blood test, so the breathalyzer is really only an early indicator.
I see genetic counselors as gatekeepers to the information about our own bodies. Just give me my results and let me figure it out for myself. If some people want the service of a counselor let them get it but don't bar people from their own bodies.

We research other issues ourselves and the world hasn't ended. Imagine if you weren't allowed to read the Bible but had visit a "bible counselor" if you wanted to find out about things in the Bible. (I use that example because people make serious life decisions based on the contents of the Bible all the time. )
I didn't get that.

What I got was that she thinks her prior actions, although incorrectly reasoned, were still reasoned.

It's almost but importantly not identical to "Based on what I knew at the time, I was correct. Based on what I now know, I was incorrect" - except that part of the "what I knew" was how herself was functioning.

As a child, I always used to hate the phrase "that's just an excuse". I'd do something my parents didn't like, they'd ask why, I'd answer, they'd reply - that's just an excuse. It's not, it's the causal reason [that I could identify].

She saying she did things based on actual reasons. She's also saying that those reasons, in hindsight, were wrong, and that those resulting actions were wrong. She's accurately reporting the emotional states at the relevant times. This is a good thing.
I think a lot of companies write tests nowadays but only a small number of them actually do true TDD.

TDD can be actually counter-productive unless you have a very clear spec, which is never the case. There's a reason why TDD is evangelized by agencies.

That said, I think it's good to learn testing just for the heck of it, you'll get used to it after you start writing a few. For JS try mocha

I can't wait to have a note-taking pen tablet laptop thing, battery life is just a big factor for me. I'm a college student and need to be able to run my laptop from 8AM to 12PM. X220 works great for that. X230T is not there yet for me.

This is so awesome that it deserves a separate blog post. I tried to contain some excitement and not expand on it with this blog post, but it's really revolutionary, and super easy to adopt.
It didn't just 'jump the shark' recently, it was designed with this goal in mind.
I read that many years ago, maybe 10-20, a major U.S. network news anchor was furious that, as he was broadcasting in front of Times Square (or someplace similar), the network used augmented reality (whatever it was called then) to replace ads visible in the background with ads from the network's advertisers. The anchor felt that it undermined his veracity to deceive his viewers.

I haven't heard anyone complain about it recently. Were standards established - e.g., no augmented reality on the news? My guess is that standards were eliminated, unfortunately, but I'd love to hear from someone who knows.
It's not "extra" money, it's contracted compensation.

The driver stuck in traffic doesn't have the discretion to say, "screw this crowd, I'm bailing on this trip to pursue surge pricing in the next neighborhood over."
> Don't we have the numbers (and quite frankly the money) to solve this issue at the root? Why can't we (the broader tech community) sell a laptop aimed principally at ourselves.

That's a really noble aim, and "we" totally could. But it'd cost millions of dollars in setup capital, the end product would cost significantly more than its competition, and it'd be from a restricted and likely heavily performance-impacted set of components.

Given those restrictions, convincing the people with the money to back it that people won't just keep using Macs or off-the-rack PCs seems like a tall order. I mean, I called it a noble effort in honesty but I probably wouldn't use one because my calculus is such that having commonly-used, high-performance stuff matters more to me right now.
Indeed. I'm not really sure I see the difference between capitalist planning and communist planning.

Don't corporations have growth targets and multi-year plans? Don't they (mostly) have a top-down management structure, where freedom of action and collective intelligence are constrained the further you get from the Central Committee (also known as the C-suite)?

Don't corporations regularly do incredibly stupid, naive, uninformed, and self-destructive things that would be impossible if the kind of distributed intelligence claimed in this article was a reality?

Are corporations any better at constraining the effects of toxic self-promoting and self-aggrandising individuals who talk a good game but are either incompetent or actively destructive?

And so on. It doesn't really matter that Hayek is misunderstood and (mis)used for free market propaganda in the same way that Adam Smith is.

What matters is that the existence of true freedom of thought and action is debatable in any culture which considers that kind of propaganda a necessity at all.
Because the API changes.
> I'm not sure how what I mean for 'us' is difficult to grasp. Human societies?

This is actually a kinda fundamental thing. I think one big (if not the biggest) reason people often talk past each other on such topics is that the concept of a society as an entity that is endowed with agency and preferences seems natural to some people and absurd to others, and it rarely explicitly comes up precisely because both beliefs are so fundamental.

Also, few people literally hold that markets provide "better solutions for everybody that any kind of central planning", at least in the short run. Trivially, a central planner who imposes a 1% tax on all incomes and keeps all proceeds for himself is going to be much better off with central planning :)
Approach relationships "sustainably". Literally, can you sustain what you are currently doing?

If not, it will eventually end; with you, or with the relationship.
Your Honest-To-God Guide to STDs
Agree with this. Build tools should remove complexity, not add it. We tried adopting sbt and we found its way too complex and switched back to maven.
Google Maps does this in London (at least on Android). Unfortunately, there's no Lyft in the UK and Uber really dominates the market, so it's pretty useless.

There's also services like RideGuru.
Well you can host a Docker image of an openldap container, secured by SSL certification (in my experience, Let's Encrypt works for this, just take care to not expose the ldap port, only ldaps) and prevented from unauthorized access by denying anonymous binds.

When I set all this up, Docker wasn't even a thing, so it's nice to have that as an option now.

For VoIP, the hardware itself is a pain, though the open-standards software side of things is a pain too.

To deal with QoS issues, we have previously had POTS lines from AT&T plugged into a phone card on the server. So we've got that wonderful digital -> analog -> digital conversion in there.

We've recently switched to Comcast, which has a box with... analog phone ports coming out of it. So we've still got the digital -> analog -> digital conversion, plus any QoS issues on Comcast's last-mile network. Though that hasn't seemed to be a problem, so maybe they've got that figured out. And no, they didn't offer a SIP solution, at least not to us.

As you allude to, I don't see a SIP based solution for our mobile devices as viable, because of the battery drain and roaming. I really just wanted to use Skype or something similar. Who calls me on my desk phone anymore? I'll tell you who, sales people. I don't give out my desk phone number, I'd really rather you just send me an email. If you are important enough, I'll give you my mobile phone number, but that's rare.
Having open source drivers would be the bigger win for me.
It's a common response among many SJWs and mentally ill that any factual observation is 'shaming'.
I recently have to deal with code security. I am very experienced developer but this topic is just overwhelming. Almost no one can give you a definitive answer and there are plenty of "experts" who are happy to give you conflicting advice.

With a lot of other code you can test your assumptions but how do you know you are secure? How do you test that?

We're acting like adults can't handle getting bad news. We're infantilizing them. People get bad news all the time and don't jump out windows.

By your argument we should regulate who's allowed to tell people that a relative has died.
I'll have to disagree with you there. There are still many bugs and it's slower than on Windows.

I would much prefer to have it without installing Wine.
The tolerant left speaks again. Thank you for your help in getting president Donald Trump elected.
These pay scales are insane for the fact that doctors essentially just have to show up. This doesn't even include management of others (aka Director roles, etc). Just literally showing up.
IME, while Google's network is really good (based on my experience w/ GCP at least), AWS cross-region traffic, for example, is still pretty reliable.

Reliable enough, at least, that trading off perfect resiliency in the face of partitions is worth it to gain strong consistency semantics.

IMO behavior in the face of partitions is a bit of a red herring. The latency tradeoffs required in a geo-replicated CP vs AP system is much more relevant.
Uber has raised $2B and is valued at $7.5B. I guess that is ok. At such a low multiple, does that imply employees are getting diluted more than normal?
>> And: Non-enterprise users will most likely not need AD/LDAP support.

Actually anyone with either more than one user, or more than one device/computer IMNHO.

We really (still) need a sane, easy-to-set up authz/auth solution. Things have gotten a lot better - but still, nfsv4 is sort of not here, samba/cifs isn't quite secure, coda is sort abandoned, davfs isn't quite fully-featured... And so on and on.

Ssh keys are (almost) easy to use, but really hard to manage securely (everyone just ignores this, and pretend private keys won't leak) - managing a ssh CA is essentially as tricky as any other CA.

Ms realised this, and boxing up kerberos+ldap+dns (and some other bits) was their solution: Active Directory.

I'm not convinced we can't do better for a turn-key linux-first, modern solution (we have public key cryptography now, that should(?) simplify a kerberos work-a-like? Make it a standard, and bsd support should be easy, and a port to Windows/gina feasible.

I strongly believe the particulars of the solution doesn't really matter much - just make it open, with a good test suite and decent reference implementation.

Redhat is AFAIK doing great work here, as was/is Debian Edu (nee "skolelinux").
You're projecting a lot of opinions without anything substantial to back it up.
