> If they're embedding an entire oracle JVM then it's probably pretty safe.

This sounds a bit strange to me. Oracle releases a lot of updates for the JRE.

eg Java 8 is up to number 131 at the time of writing this, though they're probably (hopefully!) not all security updates:

• http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/inde...

• http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/8u-relnotes-22...

With that in mind, wouldn't an embedded Oracle JVM be a very bad idea from a security standpoint? (if network connected, and not updated of course)

I'm going to use this opportunity to second the suggestion that people consider taking this year's Rust community survey: https://blog.rust-lang.org/2017/05/03/survey.html . I know it's mentioned in the post, but I figure the number of people reading the comments is much larger than the number who actually click through the link. :P And even if you don't or have never used Rust, we still value your feedback!

I can understand how this happens.

For example, telling time in Norwegian took me viewing time differently. English tends to place importance on the last whole hour that passed: Half past six, six thirty-five, six twenty. It isn't until we approach the next whole hour that we give it any credit: Quarter 'til seven.

Norwegian, on the other hand, seems to focus more on the "now" and the future, orientated around the nearest 15-minute mark and the next whole hour, only focusing on the hour that has passed for the first 15 minute. it is quite possible I've flubbed on the exact phrasing: While my Norwegian is on the upper end of adequate and passed the state tests, I am still far from truly fluent

6:20? Ten 'til half seven.
6:30? Half seven.

Redhat is a commercial company with commercial interests just like IBM and Oracle. It's not the community.

'The community' is a non structured dynamic open source ecosystem that dwarfs Redhat or any single company. No one can claim to speak for the 'community' when no such overarching organized structure exists.

Various Redhat interests go around online discussion bullying others projects and open source companies by claiming to speak for the 'community'. This is just self serving and has to stop. They are speaking for themselves and their interests.

I wonder if the author has ever taken a stroll around downtown Baltimore on a weekday afternoon and seen all the people milling about who are "fully employed."

You need to carry that "employment to population ratio" graph out earlier than 1998: https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/LNS12300001.

The employment ratio for men is down from 80%+ in the 1950s to ~65% today. Many of those men are of course in school, etc., but that merely reflects the weakness of the economy. You wouldn't expect a larger fraction of people to voluntarily go to school than in 1950 unless economic pressures compelled them to. Indeed, given that school is far more expensive today, you'd expect exactly the opposite.
> This is almost always a rule to protect cab drivers in city B. And it's horribly inefficient as it means the cab spends 50% of its time empty. If driving between cities is common, fares have to be much, much higher to compensate drivers for this.

Most of the time, that rule doesn't hit at all - the major exceptions are the Berlin and Munich airports, which are located outside of the city borders. The remainder that gets hit by this policy are fares crossing regional boundaries on the countryside where it doesn't really matter anyway if a cab goes 5km empty.

All the major cities are in one regulation zone exactly to avoid this - which has the downside that in the mega-urbs Berlin, Frankfurt, Hamburg and Berlin the amount of knowledge required for taxi drivers is immense, and it doesn't really help that there are often enough more than 2 streets of the same name in Berlin (mostly, an aftereffect of the DDR/BRD split and reunification).
Unintended consequencs: Outlook Webmail prevents user from resetting password
This was DOA, so the web site is most likely on the HN hit-list, so I'll simply post the information here.

An admin was trying to help a user update their password, and had been spending some weeks on it. It was a suspected PEBKAC - every time a reset link was sent to their account the user claimed they clicked on it immediately, only to find the token had expired. Use case was:

1) Login to admin
2) Select a user, goto credential and
select Update Password as reset again
and sent email
3) User received email and click on the
link (within the minute)
4) Keycloak complains with error
We are sorry - an error occurred,
please login again.

So what's the problem?

When you use for example Outlook Webmail
it tries to render the user action URL in
your email and sends a request to open the
URL. When this happens the key is used and
invalidated for further requests. As a
consequence, when the user clicks on the
URL, the link is not valid and cannot be
used anymore.

So there you are. Unintended consequences of apparently "helpful" features.

It's not that easy... For extortion, the punishment you're threatening someone with also needs to be illegal. For example: "Pay me 100$ or I'm going to tell all my friends how bad your food is" isn't extortion.

I'm not sure about the actual situation with Yelp, but as long as they're not making up negative reviews (which could be slander), it might be ok, legally. Given their size in that market, anti-trust concerns might come into play, though.

I agree with that. When I first started with Redux and Flow, I was just following all the examples and made sure I used action creators for everything, even if there was no payload. Now I'm feeling more confident with Flux, and I recently realized that no, I don't need "action creators" for everything. That's silly. It's OK to just dispatch an object using your action constant directly.

And then I found myself writing action creators on purpose, not because I saw it in some tutorial, but because it actually does remove some duplication.

This was also missing from my education for a long time: https://github.com/acdlite/flux-standard-action#actions

I had no idea why I was using a "payload" key, instead of just putting all the values in the top-level object. But this convention makes a lot of sense now.

Something equivalent in virality and lethality to smallpox could be catastrophic if you consider the geopolitical consequences as well as the initial biological impact.

My wife always bugs me about the cold. I tell her operating rooms are cold. Heat = entropy, disease vector increase. Any thawing of permafrost will start to revive dormant diseases, viruses and flora. We might as well complete the trifecta and start looking for ancient DNA and revive long gone species for the win. She always tells me cold and drafts = sick, but if you look where the percent of currently diseased - its never in the north - always in tropical places where diseases, worms, parasites have a field day. There will be a day where she'll be begging for the cold :)

His numbers look fine, but I think the assumptions are false.

> And these furnaces are maybe 50 feet across. [...]

> (4K miles / 50 feet)^3

This seems to assume that the earth is also cube shaped like a hypothetical 50ft^3 blast furnace, instead of a sphere (or oblate spheroid before anyone out-pedants me).

It also seems to assume that a 50ft^3 blast furnace contains energy equivalent to 50ft^3 of molten mantle. If you look at diagrams of blast furnaces you can see that a relatively tiny part of them is actually molten material.

Not being able to find numbers on the stored joules of industrial blast furnaces, I'm just going to just state that 50ft^3 of mantle has a crapload more potential energy than 50ft^3 of blast furnace, most of which is air, equipment & empty space, not molten material.

He is right that there's at least as much energy stored in the earth as he's saying, but it's going to be a crapload more than that.

The insides of blast furnaces are also significantly colder than the average temperature of the mantle.
Doctor here: very rarely does any prescribe anything more than 325mg daily. Most people get 81mg daily. 325mg is considered high dose.

You are correct that it can be written for more, but the only indication you would prescribe a higher dose is as a pain or fever reducer, and we have more effective NSAIDs for that. Or tylenol (?NSAID).

I've personally never seen it given more than 325mg daily.

I didn't realize the FSF adopted quite that position, but I tend to ignore them anyway. Also, the FSF isn't arguing for abolishing copyright, merely reducing its term.

In any case, I'm not sure arguments regarding copyright of written works are really all that interesting when talking about closed-source source code anyway. The source code isn't being published to begin with, so all of the usual arguments regarding length of copyright protection are kind of meaningless.

Report: https://www.bls.gov/news.release/pdf/empsit.pdf

My comment was going to be about how unemployment doesn't count multiple very large and important groups, including those looking for work for 12 months or more. But actually it looks like those numbers have pretty much all improved as well, and some even more significantly than the base unemployment rate.

Discouraged workers dropped by about ~20% from last year, marginally attached workers dropped by about ~10%. Long-term unemployed dropped by ~20% from last year. At first glance that seems pretty crazy.

I'd love to see some analysis on this.

Maybe there's a reason it's in a repository labeled "deprecated", namely that it's deprecated. The replacement serialization framework, serde, has exactly one appearance of "unsafe", in a function that is only compiled when you explicitly enable the "unstable" feature flag and that in fact appears to be a reasonably safe use of unsafe.

People should, Composer (with PSR autoloading) and nikic's FastRoute get you most of the way to a really nice, lightweight meta-framework barring anything else, for practically nothing. There really is no excuse for the "URL points to a file" model to be a thing anymore.

But a lot of legacy PHP code doesn't do that, and likely a lot of newbie code doesn't, because they follow old tutorials, and that model is faster and simpler.

Not even Wordpress uses routing AFAIK.

> What do you think about the idea that people in failed states with unstable currencies would want to store their wealth in Bitcoin?

It's a stupid idea because there's always two parties to any transaction.

You know why they don't just store their wealth in dollars? Because nobody is insane enough to sell them dollars for a worthless piece of paper.

Bitcoin works the same way. How much Bitcoin would you give for a Zimbabwe Dollar during hyperinflation? Obviously none.

So you have yet another hard currency that nobody can get ahold of. What's the point, again?

> Or the idea that people would want to use it for international money transfers?

I buy things internationally all the time. It works pretty great, it costs me nothing and it costs the recipient 4.4% plus a fixed $0.30 per sale.

Plus if they try and screw me over somehow I get all my money back and try someone else, and they get slapped with a big-ass chargeback fee for being an asshole. How much are the chargeback fees in the Bitcoin model? Who do I call to get my money back?

Also, I can tell you for sure that Bitcoin costs quite a lot in fees to buy, sell, or trade. Each transaction is what, $0.50 in fees nowadays?

Insofar as Bitcoin represents a single world currency, the problem is that on a macro level this isn't a good idea. Separate currencies that can inflate/deflate (i.e. "appreciate" and "depreciate") are a way to levellize structural imbalances, and without this relief valve you can end up with total collapse instead of just workers who are upset that an iPhone costs $1000. Inflation is good, it reflects a growing economy, it's only when it turns into hyperinflation that this is problematic.

For a microcosm of this problem, you can see the ongoing problems with the structural imbalances between Greece and the high-earning German economies over the last 10 years. If they had currencies that could appreciate and depreciate, Greek labor would be very cheap on the international market. But since they're stuck in the Euro together, they can't do that.

The growth function for the money supply probably isn't optimal either, for these reasons. The ability to adjust the supply is critical for controlling both inflation and deflation, under various circumstances.
