To be fair, forwarding abuse reports to the client is standard practice in the hosting industry.

There's been some debate about this in the past (efnet getting upset with Hetzner for example), but I think the general consensus is that it's not really the job of the hosting company to go out of their way to protect abuse reporters.

It's also important to understand that most abuse mail that isn't DMCA spam will be automated mail informing you of compromised machines on your network, it very much makes sense to automatically forward all this mail to the client.
"I made a minimal procedural language"
And that may well be the biggest split that has come within the Linux communities in recent years.

Across time home grown minimalism and large name distros have largely coexisted in piece. This because large name distros where at its core an expanded home grown minimalist setup.

But systemd is shifting all that, because it is clearly built from the ground up with large name distro wants/needs in mind (or maybe it is the wants/needs of big name DEs, with Gnome at the front, and distros have to begrudgingly accept systemd as they want to ship with a big name DE as their default UI), and little else.

And as time goes on, it will be harder and harder to find projects that do not expect some part of systemd to be present. And given how systemd is maintained it will be hard to use just those parts and nothing else.

More and more systemd seems like a massive case of the tail wagging the dog.
The other time to hold it is just before lunchtime. This has the dual benefit of encouraging people to be brief (hunger is a powerful motivator ;-) and breaking at a time when people would have to break anyways. I also like holding it midday rather than the very start or end of the day because those times encourage staying late or coming in early to resolve an issue before standup. Lunchtime is also usually a time when everyone (apart from remote team members) is in the office no matter what schedule they keep.
The size and complexity of your app is an important factor here. If only one view in your app needs to touch the state in a certain way — say, fetching some data from an API and updating a view — then it might make sense to manage that state in your view. But if multiple components in various parts of your app are making similar kinds of calls, it makes sense to manage it centrally, with a file or set of files that can handle common actions.
You can ask them to keep your name out of it as a condition of talking to them.

A while back I roughed up a dark theme for HN via a greasemonkey userscript, as seen here: http://i.imgur.com/PkwVEOD.png There are obviously some rough edges—no pun intended—such as around the voting buttons.

Dark themes really are just way easier on the eyes. Combining the Windows 10 dark theme, the black theme in Office 2016, Firefox Developer Edition, plus a bunch of dark themes for web sites yields a pretty good overall experience.
Maybe some sort of live-state electrical storage based on NAND gates, which returns a hi-low electrical value which is then read.
"Trustless" is a terrible meme, as the term is misleading and the implementation of the concept is impossible. The truth is:

There is no cloud, just other people's computers.

Smart contracts can make trust relationships explicit.

By using a blockchain system, you entrust a network - which you may have no control over - with application state. If you rely on such a network, you indirectly also rely on the network infrastructure and operators' social and economic incentives.
For games, you can try Stencyl, which is really cool, but I think you'll quickly be wanting access to some sort of scripting language as the drag and drop can start to get tiresome once you get past basic interactions.

I'm the last person to defend Cloudflare. They do a fair bit of crappy things (treat TOR poorly amongst them).

But, we do have freedom of speech in the US. And while that doesn't mean everyone has to give you a platform for that speech, it does mean a content provider needs to decide between being a judge or allowing everything.

Sure, Neo-Nazis seem like an easy case - nobody likes Nazis. But, what about people calling for a boycott of Israel? Or what about critical political speech? Should Cloudflare (or anyone) be in the business of making judgements about those kinds of content and if they're allowed or not?

There are some interesting theories about aspirin. For example that it was Rasputin's secret healing trick to tell people to stop taking it:

"Gilliard,[32] the French historian Hélène Carrère d'Encausse[33] and Diarmuid Jeffreys, a journalist, speculated Rasputin's healing practice included halting the administration of aspirin, a pain-relieving analgesic available since 1899.[34] Aspirin is an antiaggregant and has blood-thinning properties; it prevents clotting, and promotes bleeding which could have caused the hemarthrosis. The "wonder drug" would have worsened Alexei's joints' swelling and pain.[35][36]"
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexei_Nikolaevich,_Tsarevich_...

It is also claimed to be the real cause of the "Spanish flu":

"The high case-fatality rate—especially among young adults—during the 1918–1919 influenza pandemic is incompletely understood. Although late deaths showed bacterial pneumonia, early deaths exhibited extremely “wet,” sometimes hemorrhagic lungs. The hypothesis presented herein is that aspirin contributed to the incidence and severity of viral pathology, bacterial infection, and death, because physicians of the day were unaware that the regimens (8.0–31.2 g per day) produce levels associated with hyperventilation and pulmonary edema in 33% and 3% of recipients, respectively. Recently, pulmonary edema was found at autopsy in 46% of 26 salicylate-intoxicated adults. Experimentally, salicylates increase lung fluid and protein levels and impair mucociliary clearance. In 1918, the US Surgeon General, the US Navy, and the Journal of the American Medical Association recommended use of aspirin just before the October death spike. If these recommendations were followed, and if pulmonary edema occurred in 3% of persons, a significant proportion of the deaths may be attributable to aspirin."

>How is this able to omit basic type information? Is everything just an int?

Data is untyped and operators are typed. So in X+Y, X and Y are integers, in X::Y, X is a byte vector and Y is an integer, and in Y[X], X is an integer and Y is a vector (and the types of its element again depend on the operators applied to them).

Note that not all combinations of data and operators make sense. E.g., "foo"*[1,2,3] is a valid expression, but probably will not deliver any meaningful result.

I'll leave the interpretation of the statement to you! ;)

> Unsurprisingly, in stark contrast to the rest of the world, according to a report earlier this year only 50% of iPhone users who bought another phone in 2016 stayed with Apple

Interesting. This shows that Apple don't compete properly and only achieve high sales through monopoly. That probably explains their general nasty attitude to many things, and really sick lock-in mentality.

> None of that lock-in exists in China: Apple may be a de facto monopolist for most of the world, but in China the company is simply another smartphone vendor, and being simply another smartphone vendor is a hazardous place to be. To be clear, it’s not all bad

Why is it bad? Being "simply another smartphone vendor" is the right situation. What's bad are monopolistic markets.

What I've seen is that more and more companies just care about skills rather than degree. Self-teaching requires a lot of tenacity and most hiring managers would love this soft skill as well. Skills-based hiring is the future. If you can build real-world projects and demonstrate your skills, you should have a good shot.

Author here: I totally agree with the fact it has shortcomings and definitely isn't aimed to replace everyone's dict everywhere.

I actually created the first iteration of this around 3 years ago, aimed primarily for sysadmins and others who use the console more than actual developing. As I find it extremely convenient to tab complete keys and a lot less typing.

From there it has obviously evolved to try and fit more peoples needs, and I use it regularly in my projects.
You would likely find similar things regarding other midrange and mainframe systems. HP3000/MPE, DEC VAX/VMS, IBM z/OS.

Vax, for example, had functional clusters, versioned filesystems, and other goodies, many years ago.

Just the nature of a proprietary system...controlling everything means some functionality is easier to implement, more elegant, etc. Apple still takes advantage of this.

The hardware and OS licensing costs are high, as you suspect.
Oh interesting. I am curious is the experience of the privatized screening any better?

Or is the amount of humiliation, infantilizing and browbeating of regular honest people about the same as the non-privatized TSA?

There was big uproar about privatizing the TSA about a year ago when the time spent in lines was growing even more excessive. That narrative about privatizing seemed to go dark. Is the Kansas City Airport itself a pilot program for privatization of the TSA?
How did you hear about it at the time?

I would love to share what I'm working on with you given your long-term interest. It's a 1-to-1 or 1-to-2 online coding school for kids. We use Scratch-like blocks to create Minecraft-esque 3D worlds. Still a WIP: http://block.school (be sure to try the demo!)
Maybe this analogy would work:

Imaging a million haystacks with a million different keys scattered within them. There is a lock which only one of those keys can open; it is difficult to find the key, but when you do, anyone can easily verify it is correct by turning it in the lock. Once a key has been found, a new lock is created and the process starts again.

The more robots (mining power) you have to search for the key, the more likely it is that you will find it before competing machines do.

1. Smoking tobacco is seen as a mild taboo, but many people still do it. As long as the smoking is done outside and away from a main entrance, it's unlikely anyone will comment.

2. A large amount of people are addicted to prescription opiates, but if you go to New Mexico or Ohio, it's not going to look like a scene out of The Walking Dead. The total amount of addicted people is estimated to be 2 million [1]. Out of 300 million people, it means that this tragedy is hidden unless you personally know an affected person. By the way, many in California are affected by this issue.

3. Tobacco isn't considered a "gateway" to cannabis use by experts or credible laypeople. Tobacco users and Cannabis users have little relation or overlap.

4. Cannabis is usually introduced in the same manner as alcohol (at parties or small gatherings of friends), though alcohol is far more socially acceptable. Cannabis has never been primarily considered a "trippy" drug in the U.S. ---though there are many people who do use it that way--- it's more of a recreational substance. Cannabis use has declined among the under 18-year-olds over the past decade, but has increased among adults.

4. There are many methamphetamine and heroin addicts in absolute numbers, but again, they do not dominate any metropolitan area. Sure, it is easy to find addicts among homeless populations, but it isn't like Crash, Breaking Bad, or The Wire in terms of pervasiveness and intensity.

Growing up in Brazil, my first computer was an Apple II+ clone made by CCE. It looked a bit like the Franklin and had a couple interesting enhancements (like being able to switch between a more NTSC-like mode and PAL-M) over the II+.

My first actual job was programming educational games for the platform.

Apple II+, //e clones were popular machines in Brazil, with at least a dozen local manufacturers (the US-sponsored dictatorship prohibited computer imports). They were largely superseded by MSX machines at the home and PCs at the office.
Yea, I don't think you understand branding. Branding is the power a product gets from fulfilling it's promise to consumers.

Example: Coca-Cola. People don't buy Coke because advertising tells them to, people buy Coke because advertising reminds them to. Coke has a strong brand because Coke consumers prefer it's taste.

Numerous taste tests have shown this. Sam Walton spent millions on a better tasting drink than Coke, proved it was better in every taste test, and Walmart's coke bombed when it was released despite a heavy marketing push and excellent product placement. It bombed because despite the results of taste-tests, customers had developed an affinity for Coca-Cola. It was always good, they could trust it's consistency and flavor, and they really weren't motivated to gamble on something new.

In the cases of luxury or fashion, their unique benefits may be subtle, so subtle you don't even notice them. But their customers do and once they experience them they continue to buy from the same vendors. It can be as simple as a purse that is extremely attractive, yet durable, yet useful with the perfect number of pockets for your needs. Once you have that pleasing experience you are far more willing to buy future products from the same vendor, thinking, they know what they are doing, they think like I do, etc.

In smartphones and Macs, Apple has consistently provided high quality hardware with innovative features, and powerful but easy to use software. That's built up a brand where Apple customers have high expectations for their Apple product experiences, and that brand can only remain strong if Apple doesn't disappoint them.
This comment is simply incorrect. The gas limits do make smart contracts decidable. It is a mathematical fact. Bringing the idea that things have gone wrong with Ethereum as proof to the contrary is completely absurd. Things have also gone wrong with Bitcoin [1]. Is it undecidable now too?

>I have 878 unique shared libraries shared between currently running processes on my Linux laptop at this moment, with the amount of processes sharing a library ranging from 2 processes to 820. Most may have few in common, but there are a lot of them, and the mean is 62, mode is 4.

Good god, this tells half the story. An agunix install booted to a shell will typically only have 3 processes running: runit, a getty, and your shell. I don't think I've ever had more than 50 processes running on my agunix system at any given moment.

>As far as the botched update argument: When does anybody botch an update of a shared library? When they're forcing something to install, or they don't know what they're doing.

For any number of reasons. This has happened to me dozens of times in the past year. You also run into issues with any software you compiled yourself that aren't managed by the package manager (or at least not supported by your distro). You know what's better? An executable that works on any Linux system and will continue to work for the next 20 years without any changes. How about running two executables that need different versions of a library?

>On the other hand, mis-matches in applications using different versions of the same code causes silent, unexpected, difficult to debug errors.

I haven't run into this yet. Have you?

>I'd also be interested in seeing actual "RAM and disk footprint" numbers as a comparison for the same applications and libraries, because that doesn't really make sense. Even if applications only copy a couple small functions each, they add up, whereas the shared library only has one copy.

My laptop is currently running runit, 8 gettys, sshd, wpa_supplicant, crond, udevd, and dhcpcd. It's using 60 MiB of RAM. So far as disk footprint is concerned, see package sizes at https://repo.agunix.org/. Base system is ~350 MiB on disk and there's still room for improvement.

From the agunix home page:

>Our first concern is to build a lightweight POSIX environment - a familiar design for users familiar with other Linux distributions is not our goal.

It's better to think of this as a new operating system entirely than as a new Linux distro.
Chinese people want the Apple brand they don't care about iOS. If iOS was the status symbol it would get pirated and installed elsewhere.

There is still a significant difference in quality! My girlfriend's Samsung phone has a lot more battery problems. The interface for changing settings isn't as nice. Changing the battery in a Samsung is a bit of an adventure, even for someone who has serviced his own Macbook over many years.

In terms of experience, Apple still has it over Samsung.

What worries me is that Red Hat and IBM are handing Oracle the perfect excuse to close up Java on a silver platter.

Java 9 is very late in development, it's scheduled for release in a month, and it would have already been released by now if Oracle hadn't held it back for additional polish. For Red Hat and IBM to pull this now is a violation of the JCP's spirit, and it makes the entire Java Community Process look bad. It's 100% in bad faith, and it's a huge black eye for the JCP.

I wouldn't be surprised one iota if Oracle uses this as an excuse to pull the plug on the JCP and declares that Java will solely be an Oracle product from now on developed solely by Oracle employees without any third-party contributions. Maybe they'll even use the death of the JCP to pull the plug on OpenJDK and make Java 100% proprietary again.

Honestly, if Oracle does kill the JCP, I'd be fine with that. I'm just afraid for the future of OpenJDK.

I agree. You should post this to the person that praised them.

The post I replied suggested that Italy is not safe because of Mafia. Yeah, Salvatore Riina did go into terror to force the state to settle some 20+ years ago, but how many people not related to their business were killed vs mafiosi? Things happen.
