Or you could just, you know, take an average of how long it takes you to walk a known route. This seems like a solution in search of a problem, as well as another way for people to spy on me through my phone.

I figure it's only a matter of time before I start getting unsolicited updates on my sexual performance from third parties based on the amplitude, pitch and frequency of the resulting moans - full report with detailed analytics available for only $9.99.

There might be some way to devise an analog computer, although it's not clear to me how you would implement arithmetic operations.

Operational amplifiers can be configured to generate analogous orbits by using them to differentiate one of their inputs. By wiring multiple op-amps together and measuring voltages at different points it's possible to observe chaotic behavior in the measurements, just as if you were to directly differentiate from some initial condition on paper using a differential equation. This configuration is an analog computer. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if op-amp circuits existed with perfectly analogous mathematical behavior to the orbits described in the paper.

The problem with gravitational computing using n bodies probably lies with establishing initial conditions, and with inhibiting the effects of neighboring systems.
If you look at the history for handbrake in cask, it looks like it was first updated to 1.0.7 with the correct hash, then later the hash was changed with no version bump, and then reverted. That's crazy! Why didn't alarm bells go off when the hash changed? https://github.com/caskroom/homebrew-cask/commits/master/Cas...

Swahili is a great language for finding good-sounding project names. Most words are easily pronounceable with a 'pleasant' balance between vowels and consonants, they just 'sound good'.

Take a word like 'rafiki', Swahili for 'friend'. That's a perfect name for some social platform. Or 'nena' - which means 'speak' - for a chat app. Just get a Swahili-whatever dictionary and you'll soon have more project names than you can shake a fimbo at. Fimbo is Swahili for 'stick', by the way.
The landscape of people who actually download apps is very different though.

My last 2 points (of the 3 points I made) are 2. Ironic / 3. Wrong

I am glad you found out "3" at least
If you want to communicate trust I would think hard about using a clown in marketing.

I think I understand what you want to communicate, but it reminds me more of something suitable for marketing a used car sale at jaw dropping prices.

If trust is what you want to communicate it should also be visible in the design of your web site. That means focus on details and optimization here and there.

E.g. you should check how many visited your site with a mobile phone today and see if you can spend some time on optimizing the first inoression. Also remember that users who come to your site might have other ideas on what is important. For instance maybe you should try to give your logo a little bit less prominent space and don't scroll it back into the view because it's annoying. Also optimize the page so that the call to action and testimony now beneath is visible and above the fold.

I would also focus on the value you provide to your customers and not only that you are affordable.

One issue I have with Indian companies are that they are not too good with their workers. I have heard a few stories. So maybe something that would assure me you are good with them, if you are, would be nice to see there.

Best of luck!
'for(;;);' probably compresses better than 'while(1)' too. Semicolons are (very :) common in JavaScript code and the for idiom repeats them three times.
A spoon is "better" for drinking soup than a fork. That's a morally neutral statement but it is a value judgement based on the functional properties. No need to overreach by corrupting the author's insights. We'll get farther with a more charitable interpretation.
Facebook is a severely flawed product, as flawed as windows 2000, with a similar level of popularity with the unwashed masses. I wonder what its inevitable replacements form will take shape as.
Do you think there should be 50/50 parity in all professions from mining to nursing? I'm trying to understand why 35% would be impressive or not impressive. It's just a number and it's not clear that any profession or area of study has an established ratio that would be considered "natural" or unnatural.

This is a highly reputable primary source data that contradicts your secondary source articles. Can you please point me at primary source statistics that support your claims.
As my Facebook cohort aged up into their mid-20s, my feed is all baby photos and overchurned memes that have been re-shared across 5 different sites, interspersed with relentless posts from artists I forgot I liked long ago, and ads that are trying hard to be local. Its utility is increasingly not defined by the Feed, but by being a contact list of Everyone You Ever Met Who You Don't Want To Unfriend, which has some uses for communication, warding off the most superficial kind of loneliness, and when someone is giving away spare goods a la Craigslist.

Most of the visually enticing bragging has moved onto Instagram, where the content is front-and-center and all about the number of hearts, imitating the style of celebrity influencers: beach scene with brand cocktail, friends taking a multi-selfie at an event, etc.

Conversely, my Snapchat is full of relatively mundane stuff: morning selfies with makeup on point, silly antics at a party, funny faces and filters.

To me, Instagram is actually the most frustrating, as it's the one that amplifies discrepancies between the popularity of your friends the most. For those of your real life friends who attract a lot of likes, it makes you feel like an increasingly irrelevant fan of a rising celebrity; while those who get very little validation are attract solely the sympathy heart, and often get deleted at the end of the day, leaving both the poster and you dissatisfied.

For these reasons, Instagram is a bad fit for people who are self-conscious about their relative lack of popularity, which is -- let's face it -- quite a few people. On the other hand, it's a great fit for people who, for whatever reason, can get plenty of likes from strangers and friends alike: no wonder it's the favored platform for social media influencers and their sponsors.

I know that. That's a Welsh town.
> Dr Gail Dines, professor of sociology and women's studies at Wheelock College, Boston, and a prominent anti-porn campaigner.

> Until we [...] have actual empirical evidence

So she claims shes a scholar, and shes calling for empirical evidence. This piqued my interest, she's probably worked on some papers in this area - why doesn't she have empirical evidence? Is there a good reason it is hard to come by?

I looked to her website [1] and then through google scholar, and turned up nothing. She's written a ton of books in which shes expressed her opinions but I can't find her producing any work that isn't reading and spinning others' research - if she has then promoting the fact is far from the top of her agenda.

As it is I'm disappointed. There's an interesting effect at work yet neither of the experts Vice have had comment on the issue have experience with it and have just spouted off their media lines.

Is it easy to get to a good mental model of computing, without programming?
That is not what I'm saying. I am articulating a different concern about the nature of the problematic behavior which exploits the vulnerability.
Part 2 recording is finished! Just need to get it online :)
It's anecdotal but programming has always been social for me. It started when I was 8 going over basic programs with my father looking over my shoulder. It continued as my cousins and I planned out and tried to make games. I was lucky enough for every school I had to have a programming club and class. Our club spent hours after school together and went to contests across the state. To me it wasn't isolating anymore than any other hobby could have been.

Thank you for sharing. I know the general problem with depression is not directly how the brain manages it's dopamine, but a lot is not understood about depression. Like ADHD it is a cluster of underlying causes that manifest in a similar manner. If your brain has trouble releasing dopamine, amphetamines are going to help. ADHD brains just don't let go of their dopamine effectively. Amphetamine stimulants come in and hit the dopamine stores with a jackhammer. The net result is that mundane stuff becomes more pleasurable. It actually does far less for people who don't have ADHD, but it obviously had an effect. Also, we don't really know what the long term effects are. I suspect if you exercise regularly and cycle on and off to ensure no dependency the side effects are low. We have good reason to suspect this with some folks using Dextroamphetamine (Adderall) and Methylphenidate (Ritalin) for 10-20+ years with no large side effects observed.
Well there's built-in cognitive ability and then there are practical skills and knowledge in particular areas. The built-up wiring often factors in more I think. The main feature of intelligence is actually compression. So its like judging the performance of a compression library in the case where you need to add one file to an archive -- you need to factor in the size and contents of the existing archive.

"When my mind needs a short break" sounds like you should give meditation a shot.
I left facebook a couple of weeks ago. It's been great so far, because I don't feel the urge to read comments on news sites' fanpages. When I did, it usually ended in resent against people from my country for being so stupid.
What Is Lisk: The Importance of Sidechains
The French Revolution does not belong in the same sentence as the crashes of 1929 or 2008. Economic crashes under modern industrialist-capitalism have been much less negative than crashes under other systems.

It is true that class warfare in any direction leads to social instability and discontentment. Everyone should feel that the basic resources they need to survive are attainable. I think that most successful societies, have, for the most part, had that covered.

Review on SpinaliS Hacker Series Chairs by Mr. Steve Meagher from Site Solutions
If it was the rich kids who were the cause of corruption, why should the poor kids suffer for that?
It's not so much that there's just one or two specific results, but rather that there's just far more researchers working on this now, and quite a few are working on more theoretical stuff. Sometimes, that theory results in really practical outcomes - a good example would be https://arxiv.org/abs/1701.07875 . Or another by the same researcher: https://arxiv.org/abs/1506.00059 .

We've seen, in the last year or two, interesting results in nearly every area of theoretical research of deep learning, including generalization, optimization, generative modelling, bayesian models, and network architecture.
I use goodreads for tracking and the recommended books section of the kindle store which I think gives better recommendations than goodreads.
There's already a ferry system in the bay to points where it's feasible to to put docks. However, much of the bay is less than ten feet deep, with gentle slopes, which make ferries to other points, especially in the south bay, difficult.
Ha wow, I'd have a mini cluster of GPUs powering it!
There is one important piece here.

If you can offer something for free that "original" requires payment then that approach might work very well - at least as customer acquisition strategy.

That is reason why Trello and Slack are pretty much free. As far as I remember, Gmail did the same: they offered 1GB of free email. That was so much better then my Yahoo which asked me for 9.90 a month for 250MB. So I switched.

But then when you ask users to pay (to upgrade) then 1.99 vs 9.99 vs 19.99 really does not make a lot of difference.

And do not be fooled by "features matters", "support matters", etc. The customer acquisition is the most important part of any (small) business (including SaaS).
That's all fine and good, but someone should also make the zombie apocalypse version of this story.
I guess the question is why aren't the unwashed ramen eating nerds of the female gender interested in programming? Now let's not pretend they don't exist, they're key members of any university anime club. Why did they choose systems, civil, and chemical engineering over computer science?
I don't think Mr. Alexander has had this conversation with anyone in bioinformatics, where "SNP" is universally pronounced "snip" and given the preconsonantal indefinite article - "a snip", not "an ess en pee".
I've also stopped watching news as regularly as I once did. What I'm doing instead is reading a weekly news magazine, so I still get all the news, but minus the "Breaking News" breathlessness and plus deeper analyses.

Digital Printing on Fabric – Future of Textile Printing
Changing to a different fixed color space is unlikely to help. However adding a learnable color space transformation is a great (and rarely known) trick. Both are discussed and compared in this terrific paper: https://arxiv.org/abs/1606.02228
This was formerly discussed (and answered by jacquesm) in the comments of the first blogpost: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14227862
true, maybe there's no problem for your use case. using something like ngrok is a gamble:

if the only thing on the line is low-value things like whatever is on your personal laptop (or even whatever is on a spartan vanilla ubuntu VM that your app is running in), then maybe it's not a very big gamble.

if the laptop has corporate secrets on it or it can be used as by an attacker to pivot into company internal systems through the VPN you're also connected to, however, that's a completely different story.
It's $100 for the signing and $500 for a Mac Mini. Any professional software developer would make that kind of money in a few days. And I would bet that an open source project as big as this gets at least that amount in donations yearly. It's completely irresponsible to not sign releases after something like this happens.
Yeah, it's just one reason

Luckily this reason is politically correct and you stated it

That's my view too. Freezing more layers at the start can also help a lot with fragile training.
I think the author is trying to explain naturally-occurring feedback loops, not necessarily trying to justify them as a positive thing. Understanding that these are natural phenomena that occur due to hard physical or natural factors is crucial to being able to formulate a plan that accounts for them.

Free EBook “Personal Empowerment for Empaths”
First off, I didn't use the term asperger's. I used the term aspie. One is the DSM-IV term and the other is a derivative term used by the community of people on that end of the spectrum.

I didn't suggest that there are no other possible contributors to being able to ignore social pressure. That's what you read into my comment. What I did do is dismiss the very handwavvy explanation of stating it's caused by "privilege", which is one of the most bullshit masturbatory terms to come out of liberal academia in a long time. It is not specific, measurable or testable. Hypotheses and theories based on it lack all the hallmarks of good science.

If one wants to talk about something testable based on criteria like income, zip code, educational attainment of parents, or a variety of other aspects that are specific and measurable, that's great, but "privilege" is not specific nor measurable.

“The basic tool for the manipulation of reality is the manipulation of words. If you can control the meaning of words, you can control the people who must use them.”

Philip K. Dick

The term "privilege" is a weasel word and anyone interested in having an honest intellectual debate should reject it outright.

In my country we serve to the army for 1 year totaly free. Yes, without a payment. I was asking my father to give me 50 bucks to buy a box of cigarettes and drink a beer in the bar. How I felt? Garbage...
But here is the worst part. We had a commander A and All day we were serving ourselves. We were taking care of the gardens, making parade, straw broom stuff for hours and many other stupid things with very little education. Every day (and night ofcourse) we had service in the watchtower and every second day we were free and we could go out to town.
But some day another commander came. The first day he said to us (he was just arrived in the camp and we were there for months) that the services were many and probably we would not have many "free" days. suddenly we started to have free of service days every 15 days! The law which they were abusing was saying that for the needs of the battalion we could make as many services in a row as it was needed. 15-20 days in a row for 1 day out.
And this is a very small example of what army means. What was the diff from Commander A to B? You can spend many many hours thinking but noone can give me back that 1 lost year with all those people. I know them very well. First I thought that only my country's people were like that. But then I realized that everywhere is the same.
"Incredibly gifted individuals" are always living in their world. I was lucky to meet some of them. They didn't even know what an FFT is and we were serving in the electronic intelligence.
Last year I read over 100 books as part of my Goodreads challenge. This year I set the target way down at 50 books and my new challenge is to finish all the books I've bought but not finished. So my rule is I have to finish 2 books from the unfinished list before I can buy a new book.

My kindle has 470 books on it with 86 of them not complete or that I have only skimmed.

Audible account is up to 70 with 26 unfinished.

And I have about a dozen paper books to finish too which is from the point about reading physical books. I find for technical topics I do way better retaining and studying from paper books than kindle ones so I've started buying paper again.
Any hints on what has taken what.cd's place?
The aim was to show that in the absence of academic cheating, a meritocracy would emerge. What the researcher realized was that the deck was stacked against poorer students and in favor of richer students...in essence, the cheating/rigging was happening before the kids walked into school...and the academic cheating was a response to level the playing field.
Interesting findings, but really nothing here new about the evolutionary biology. This is just another example of Zahavian adaptations, aka handicap principle, "which explains the evolution of characteristics, behaviors or structures that appear contrary to the principles of Darwinian evolution in that they appear to reduce fitness and endanger individual organisms. Evolved by sexual selection, these act as signals of the status of the organism, functioning to e. g. attract mates."

I guess calling it an app and saying that I own the data made me think it was an electron-app or something.

If I can't export the data (I see nothing about it) and it's not stored on my device I think it is a stretch to say that I own my data. I get that it might not the first feature to implement, but for the future that is something that at least I would expect.

If you are browsing the web with a 10 year old browser you are opening yourself up to a ton of security bugs. Whether json responses contain a while loop or not isn't going to make a difference.

The reason Google and Facebook keep this kind of stuff around is because it's there and doesn't hurt to keep it. There's a slight chance it will provide some protection if a similar attack vector is discovered.
GPUs already beat MICs in core count, performance, price per watt, and initial cost.

Why worry about writing specialized vectorized code? Just by using OpenCL your code will work like that. That's what OpenCL does. You give it chunks of data, you give it a kernel to run, then you run it on your data.

An extremely old AMD cards you can easily find 1280 "core" systems that can push GFLOPS of data through them.

OpenCL is the tool you should use for this. Not a hodge podge of messy fortran code that's been ""vectorized"".

Don't do the compiler's job.

In any other sort of value proposition it would be rejected.

"Cheating it seemed had provided a kind of levelling effect"

e.g. (If you cheat, you get things people don't want to give you).

Try "Rape it seemed had provided a kind of levelling effect."

As in, if you rape somebody it lets you have sex as often as people who have more sex than you.
If we're plugging functional package management, we may as well mention the other significant project in this space - Guix:

https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/download/

Essentially, all the benefits touted above apply here, but it is worth noting that Guix is a younger project. The author was originally a Nix dev, but found the DSL to be too awkward to use in practice, and opted to use Scheme through and through. Yes, Emacs bindings are available.

Also, Guix can now produce Dockerfiles, if that floats your boat:

I think it's shitty behaviour - but what's the alternative? I've found good fresh domains in the past, and let them drop when the project I registered them for (inevitably) doesn't go anywhere, only to see them grabbed by domain squatter.

Recently I listed an unneeded but above average (trademarkable, keyword, .com) on HN as free to anyone who could use it, with the stipulation that they pass it on if subsequently not used.

I'd be glad to see more of that.
