What app? They all take credentials different ways. The ideal would be an unprivileged child talking to a privileged parent, where the child asks for the secret and is authorized by the parent, and then both the child and parent erase the [unencrypted] secret when not in use. If your app doesn't do this, executing some app that then feeds the secret via a file descriptor (pipe/socket/etc) (and hopefully erases all traces of it after) is similar.

The simplest hack is to use a configuration management tool to start your app, and have its pre-exec step provide the credential, and post-exec remove any trace of it (which, again, will not work everywhere). The config management tool can be authorized to pull the credential from a remote host by some public-key protocol and a hole in your firewall, or by a local cache of secrets pushed by the config management tool only to the hosts and accounts that specifically need them. These have security and reliability tradeoffs.

You can also use a credential management suite for a more robust solution, of which there are both commercial and free options.
Well if the contract and the law says they can involuntarily remove passengers from the plane, then it is necessarily legally permissable for United to assault/battery their passengers. Whether or not that is morally the right thing to do, or whether that is a wise business move in this case is a separate question (probably answer is no). Hypothetically they could legally shoot their customers if battery was not enough force if the contract stipulates so.
Basically, the tradesman works for the union local. You get your benefits, pension/401k, etc through the union. There's some sort of skill/seniority list so if you need a master plumber + two journeyman who can do skill X, the union provides trained people.

As it's become easier to break unions, you'll find that these arrangements are usually only required for government projects and specific localities. When people tell stories about guys with no necks deploying rubber rats, that's usually in NYC or a similar place.

The upside to this model is you get generally well trained people with good benefits. The downside is that you get some additional baggage, which can be absurd in some situations.
Exactly. 100% this.

If he had just left when the police arrived, as commenters above you are suggesting, then that would mean that the threat of violence was a successful solution to United's mistake, and we'd never have heard about it.
Apache has historically been a giant swiss army knife that will do just about everything you could want, from redirect databases to cgi to php interpreters to crazy auth setups. It did all that while still being a reasonably good workhorse for static file serving (when properly turned and using the right worker model, event rather than threaded or process).

Nginx seems to have a different model. It does support a number of features but from what I can see it focuses on composing functionality with HTTP rather than adding more plugins.

Nginx seems to do a great job at being a load balancer and cdn-lite, and it seems like that's what the market wants out of a web server.
The few times I've taken the offer, the tickets were good for a year. But for someone who doesn't fly a lot, that is a relatively short amount of time.
> The police should be retrained not to use violence. (Is this reasonable? You can imagine other instances where this where this would endanger them.)

That is absolutely reasonable. In many countries, police are trained to de-escalate potentially hostile situations. Only in the US and probably a couple of police states are police officers required to escalate to violence.

And it's that tendency to escalate to violence that makes police a threat to society.

What do you think of Seeed Studio?
I can't believe you're defending United's actions. In short, you're saying that the passenger asked for it. He maintained his dignity as a human being by not acquiescing to unethical actions taken against him. United may have the legal right to do this, but they are certainly unethical in doing so. I fully support this man's behavior.
Yes, it's an issue I've often seen. I really dislike this practice from Amazon. I can understand author's doing it since it's tough for self published authors to earn money but it's a monopolistic practice on the part of Amazon that doesn't sit well with me.
if this disgusts you for moral/guilt reasons there is a good solution. Eat less meat! You don't have to go full vegan.

I think people employ black and white thinking about this -- either I eat all meat or I become vegetarian/vegan and eat no meat. That's hard, and you're likely to fail (hard cutting to vegan would be quite difficult, regression rates after a few months are sky high).

Instead, simply resolve to eat less meat. Make Thursdays meatless. Opt for the vegetarian option when eating out. Slowly reduce your meat consumption to a level you're happy with. Learn about meat alternatives (which have gotten really, really good in the last few years).

If everyone in the US took one day a week to have no meat, the whole industry would change dramatically. Baby steps!

> Bad experiences with their cheap wok pans.

They do have a set of cheap table serrated-edge steak knives (SNITTA - set of 4 for $5) that are actually quite nice when you look at them closely; stainless steel with a tang that goes completely down the handle.

Not sure what the handle is made out of, but its solidly attached, and the set my wife and I bought has lasted almost a decade going thru the dishwasher and such, and still look nearly brand new. They say they can be used as a utility knife; they'd probably cut cardboard well, maybe other stuff, but I prefer other tools for that kind of thing.

I actually like them better than a set I have that are identical to the large steak knives they put out (or did at one time) at the Outback Steakhouse restaurant (not saying anything about the food - I just liked the knives).

Some day I'm going to pick up a set of Knork knives (I already love their namesake utensils), but I bet I still might like the Ikea set better.

> You're implying that is necessarily a bad thing in all cases.

I sincerely wasn't. I was trying to be as neutral as possible. And I was not talking of freedom in the post you're replying to, I was only talking about restrictions on the circulation of capital.
Steam uses 'Steam Wallet' which is 1:1 with real currency. This prevents the obfuscation/disconnect with what you are actually spending.

As far as I know, it is functionally identical to any other 'fake' currency (it's like store credit).
Are you implying that spiking networks are somehow faster than level based ones?

We can build analog level based networks and I don't see any reason why they would have to be slower than spike based ones. And as far as the noise, it's also unclear to me why a spiking network would be more noise resistant or stable. Do tell.
They apologized for having to "re-accomodate" the customer's face into the armrest. Some wordsmith is earning his paycheck today, that's for sure!

(EDIT: Looks like drcode beat me to that one)
Honestly, though, I still don't understand how Dell can have such a crappy website to sell their products. Just compare the laptop image here, http://www.dell.com/us/business/p/precision-m5510-workstatio... , with the imagery at http://www.apple.com/macbook/ . On the Dell site you get a couple crappy, low res photos, where it's hard to tell how "robust" the laptop chassis is. On the Macbook site you get gorgeous, high res photos that give me a much better understanding of the overall look and feel of the product.

I mean, I understand that other companies will not have the same design focus as Apple, but isn't it pretty easy to at least standardize on "use high resolution photos"??
United sucks!
I've been lucky/unlucky in my life to fly with them ONCE and they are THE-WORSE!!
I prefer flying some shady cheap company, at least then they "meet my expectations" while I've never heard anyone ever saying a good thing about United.

I know my input offers nothing to anyone here, apart the "poor" United employee that will have to go through all our "hate" and think "oops this is a forum for people with brains and skills and they are trashing us big time.. now HERE is a pack of skilled people that would never fly with us OR work for us!!"
Foxconn could bid up to $27B for Toshiba's chip business
Very true, but the neuroplasticity observed is markedly different from forming entirely new pathways. It is more like changing the weights of a network already in place.

The neurogenesis is also limited to the hippocampus and olfactory bulb. Your cortex does not have a steady supply of new cells.

Making these chips is really not all that expensive. Most groups produce only test chips in multi-project wafer runs, with a cost of 1-5k$ per chip. It is just like normal research, you have to make up experiments and then actually do them. So far there are a substantial number of successes in the domain of low-power neural networks.
what could be read as more-or-less personal/ideological reasons as much as a serious proposal

Why should that make it any less serious than a proposal that is motivated by pure financial interest? There is no law that says monetary profit is the only good a company can create. I object your dismissal of it as non-serious just because it's not obviously commercial.
Well, what about the post-Cold War prosperity of the '90s then?
I'm honestly flabbergasted by how idiotic United was in this situation. Was a few hundred/thousand dollars in savings worth the negative PR they got out of this whole ordeal? Every consumer knows how shitty economy flying is, especially on United, and would easily sympathize with the consumer who bought their ticket fair and square.

An encyclopedia tells you what quantum mechanics is. You can use that knowledge the next time you are at a party and someone wants to talk about a cat in a box or the double slit experiment. You cannot use that knowledge to teach an undergrad course on QM that involves any math, or even to design a meaningful experiment in the field.

If you want to know what functional programming is to casually mention it at parties, you can easily find an explanation at that level. If you want to determine whether it is worth learning and using, and what it is good for, you're not going to get that without some experience and some investment of effort.
Militarization of our society. Airports are like warzones, with warzone like police and military and security process. Whenever there is a security issue at the airport or the plane, it's taken to the extreme. Where is the common sense in this case? Has the airliners lost their minds? If something like this happens again in the future, I hope other passengers would rise up and prevent security from doing this.
While hardly a "double blind IQ test", or a microdose, Ken Kesey described an interesting lab experience. Back when there was still academic research being done on psychedelics, he was part of an experiment group. One of the experiments being done on him was measuring his sense of time (the "time dilation" often reported by users). They would ask him to estimate one minute passing by, while they timed it. But before they did the time test, they took his pulse, and wrote the results where he could see them. So when they asked him to time one minute, he simply counted his pulse - presumably hitting his estimate more accurately than a "sober" person could.

I think this particular incident says a lot about the difficulty of doing scientific research around perception, for something that so radically alters perception.
"Yeah, we're not doing that. We're canceling your ticket. You're now trespassing." seems like the attitude taken here.
It has been mentioned a lot in the comments that United was correct as per their Contract of Carriage - Involuntary Deny Boarding.

But what's being missed here is that, the person who was dragged wasn't denied to board the plane in the first place. He was already seated, a seat number assigned to him, he is on the plane and by all means and precedents, he has already boarded. You cannot anymore deny boarding for someone whom you have already allowed passage inside the plane and seated. I assume this will be a feast day for the lawyers of the person removed forcibly, as they have all the angles working certainly in their favor.
No, they can re-route the baggage for you if you're going on another flight. If you're not flying they remove it (which can significantly delay takeoff causing a fine to the airline if their stats drop outside of standards).

I've flown on budget flights before that have a similar case where your checked lugagage is not necessarily on your flight to the destination but could be on a later one. Even much later. Very few guarantees before they actually start paying out for lost or delayed baggage.

They're also allowed to ship your baggage to you or hand deliver with a shipping courier.
Maybe we need access to more resources. Colonize space?
> The problem is that to make something secure today, you need to be a network protocol specialist, a linux specialist, an expert cryptographer, etc.

A self-updating debian install with a unique random password you deliver in a piece of paper inside the box should be enough.

If it isn't then there's something very odd with the legal processes, as your team of experts wouldn't be able to deliver it either.

> good health insurance- the government should offer a public option for that, instead

They do already offer the ACA exchanges as well as subsidies for low-income wage earners under ACA. ACA also mandates a maximum annual out-of-pocket cost of $6,600 per individual (and $13,200 for entire family). While still a substantial amount, it's a far cry from millions of dollars of medical bills that people were saddled with pre-ACA.
Well Joe Corporate uses the platform his PC department supports and can easily push updates/etc too. Still pretty most home users have the old standard box with monitor, I wonder where in the age ranges that the transition occurs of if you start on a laptop because of school you stick with that form?
Did he not have a legal right? I thought the only reason they removed him was because the plane was overbooked and they wanted the seat for their own employees. Sounds like he had a valid ticket and every right to be on that plane. The airline should not have overbooked, and discovering that they had, they should have put their own employee on the next plane. Treating paying customers like this is inexcusable.
OP could have been a bit more subtle with his statement. Obviously some people have an easier time than others accumulating capital. If you're working at a minimum wage job (or 2) you may not have any "extra" capital to accumulate. In those cases, it's not really a preference. On the other hand, many people DO have some amount left over after their basic living expenses. People have options with this. They have "preferences". They could spend it on a "luxurious" lifestyle, expensive bars, updated wardrobes, expensive cars, houses larger than they need. Etc. Many "rich" people (even middle class people) have a preference for living below their means, and allowing the capital to accumulate.

My father was a post office worker, the government took care of him for sure, but he never made more than $20/hr. Today his retirement account has over a million dollars in it. Growing up we never owned a car, we rarely eat out, and we lived in a very cheap house, in a very cheap neighborhood.

I resented him for it many times, not having a car is very difficult in the suburbs of the Midwest. Our cheap house was in a shitty school district.

But it was his "preference". He could have saved less, and spent the money on a better house in a better school district. He chose to accumulate capital instead.
A couple were asked to leave first. Maybe for reservations of >4?
What back end? In general, what's the set up like?
I don't understand why American shareholders are so quiescent and trusting of their boards. I can't help noticing that the people who idolize corporate boards are often the same people who fulminate against representative government.
Absolutely, but it depends on the skill level of the grad. Not all bootcamps or their grads are alike.

A great point of reference is the super transparent outcomes data on http://cirr.org.

The data reveals two takeaways:
1) Yes, employers outside of Silicon Valley absolutely hire bootcamp grads.
2) The difference in bootcamp placement rates and average starting salaries can be significant - this is because the programs are different and the level and competency of their grads are different.

Regardless of what city you living in, you want to do your research and select a bootcamp that's proven it can produce results.
If only thinkpads had non-rubbish screens and touchpads. Actually, I could probably learn to use the nub, whatever. Just give me reasonable screens on something under 2000 USD.
> Design Beautiful Websites Quicker

* "...More Quickly".

Quicker is an adjective, used to describe nouns. You could say "design quicker websites", "quicker" in that case describing an aspect of the website. If you wanted to describe the manner in which you will do the designing, you have to use the adverb "quickly"-- "design websites quickly". Adding the adverb "more" to modify the adverb "quickly" is the proper way to make it comparative.
Reminds me of a scene in the film Book of Eli, which, if you're a fan of Fallout, should watch.
Still doesn't make the original flight "oversold". That's a very specific term in airline travel relating to ticketed seats sold for a flight, not a United staffing fuckup.

Edited: for clarity.
Plus, there's no way it would get that high. Likely people were willing to be bought out, but wanted it to be "worth it". Fear of missing out would intervene very quickly, once the vouchers reached a certain point.

Even on a plane full of game theorists, willing to bid up to a million dollars, you're still probably miles away from the amount this will cost in negative PR, to say the least.
Project HeuNadel – Against ISPs Selling Your Private DATA
"Brain-like" can mean either of two things, the circuit approach or the algorithm approach. 1) Circuits: Its components look like neurons (analog internals, spikes, etc). Algorithmic: 2) It performs the same real-time 3-D tomography/simulation/control which real brains perform. This second approach is unusual in ignoring "neurons" entirely, but has the advantage that 3-D reconstruction from undersampled, quantized inputs is a well-posed computational problem, although it does require a difficult-to-imagine continuous, self-amplifying 3-D representational medium to make it work. My caclulations indicate the second approach is at least 10^8 more efficient than the circuit-based approach at doing what brains actually do (https://arxiv.org/pdf/1409.8275.pdf).
That's another conspiracy propagated by the Imperfect-Spherists.
Sure it was a dumb/unethical thing to do on behalf of the airline and should have been handled differently etc. I'm wondering why nobody is commenting on the absurd behavior of the passenger however - insisting on forcing police to physically drag him from the plane. Once it was decided and the guys in uniforms with guns show up, what sane person is honestly going to do that? The decision to remove the passenger we can all rightly agree was wrong, but the graphic nature of how events unfolded at that point is really on the passenger.
C-MERA's default code generator is textual C. This project uses LLVM's API, which is sadly difficult to utilize outside of C++.
Are you referring to something other than FAR 91.3(a)? Because that pertains to the pilot in command being the final authority over aircraft operations. Removing a docile passenger who is merely violating the contract of carriage is not what that regulation has in mind.

This sounds to be like strictly a contract of carriage violation by the passenger, it is a civil matter, not criminal. I think the airline can't physically coerce the passenger individually once they're in the plane. They can remove his luggage and just wait until that passenger, or some other passenger, complies. But physically removing someone not engaged in criminal activity itself becomes assault.
Airlines are legally allowed to overbook. It's an established practice.
This is the correct explanation

The app is more than a regular app. Just like the macOS installer apps, the Server install app installs macOS Server components to the system.
Violence will always underlie government, law, courts, and police. Nations can do research on de-escalation or non-violent interventions, but what happens when a nice method doesn't work? Violence comes next.

The objection here is that violence wasn't sufficiently gated, and nor was violence minimally applied -- the airline could've just paid people to get off with a real offer, and not a dishonest offer where people suspect they're going to get tricked by funny coupons and vouchers.
I have a dream that they'll sell something like (or maybe the same product) the Oxfam OX flatpack truck to consumers.

I want one of those so bad, to the point where I've considered building one from scratch. I doubt we'll ever see one of them stateside, though, because they look like a deathtrap in an accident.

Though I wonder if, as a "kit car" put together by the owner and not sold as a complete vehicle, they couldn't be legally registered and driven as an "experimental" vehicle (which is what I would have to get if I self-built one)?
