It's a huge technological problem to solve, and I doubt it will be solved by a third party, rather than Oculus/Google. Positional tracking relies on external devices at the moment - Infrared Constellation Tracking with the Rift, and Lighthouse tracking with the Vive (and other SteamVR based devices).

Without an external tracking device to rectify motion against, using gyros/accelerometers is only enough to reliably get 3DOF. A potential halfway solution would be to use some impressive CV techniques on the phone camera to track hands, but only where you're looking - mix that with the tilt data of the controllers - and some inverse kinematics. The more signals, the better the tracking.
Macros aside, Hy removes the single statement limitations of Python lambdas and the reliance on indentation. The fact that it's a Lisp also introduces a higher level of composability.

Total anecdote, but I'm from Tennessee and went to Auburn University (AL), so I guess I'm exactly that, but when I travel abroad (Europe, Middle East, Ukraine) I always tell people "I'm from Memphis, TN" and, almost invariably, the response is "oooohh! Elvis!" It's a fun conversation starter, providing a humanizing connection beyond 'America'.
How do amateur security engineers learn to find new exploits to produce CVEs?
Saw a similar post on reddit but it didn't have many responses. I'm also very interested in the subject.

Considering one already has experience in security. E.g. Bachelors/Masters level courses, practical bug bounties, CTF and can use metasploit. These all teach the users how to use tools, or to find pre-existing/known attacks and vulnerabilities.

How does one jump from this to finding new/undiscovered vulnerabilities in applications, operating systems that could be made into actual CVEs?

Does anyone have experience in this?

For example, how do those in Google Project Zero perform such finds?

Thanks.
Wow!

Being part of a late 30s couple with pretty boring driving history in a small city pays I guess. I pay like $700-850 (depending on how you break out umbrella liability cost) for maxed out coverage in an above average cost US state. I think I paid around $1200 when I was a dumb kid with tickets. :)

Even if there were siginifciant savings, it wouldn't be worth it to me to have that kind of telemetry being gathered. It can only be used against you in a accident situation.
Yes I am. Want to try again?

The fact that I'm critiquing a poor argument has nothing to do with my philosophical views. Just as I could argue a fascist policy would be poor to implement or is inconsistent (or the opposite), I can do the same with liberal democratic property rights.

While a view may not be property (and this depends on what laws are written etc...) communities in this system of government regularly create laws and regulations for said communities. It's just a normal thing that happens in democratic societies. Being upset about that doesn't change that fact, nor does it make those communities immoral or unethical or anything like that.

I don't think I got it wrong. My point was only to correct the original claim that China leads the world in absolutely nothing. If you're not impressed with China being #1 at one of the most important economic sectors in the world, and you want to explain it away, then carry on. I'm not super interested in that convo because I do lots of business with China and already understand the situation intimately and have far better resources than HN comments for learning what's actually happening there. Not meant to be mean spirited, I'm just not interested unless you do business there and have contacts there up to the highest levels of government in which case, let's talk and I might even pay for good info.
It was tedious and not well suited for people needing a certain level of variety or intellectual stimulation in their work. I found it a touch soul crushing... on the other hand I knew people there that were completely content doing exactly that work. They'd turn on their radio/books on tape/etc. (some, including me from time to time, would even read a bit) an go to a world of their own thoughts for 8-10 hours and be content. I had a relative that worked at the same place for 20 years and was completely happy with the job and life.

I did the data entry job for (as I recall) about a year and a half: it paid the bills and gave me a better life than I would have without it and I didn't have the right qualifications or work experience for anything better. For those reasons I was appreciative of the work while at the same time I looked to improve my working situation... something I can say of my work today (though what counts as improvement in working situation is way different now).

There are many jobs out there that need doing. Many of them are boring, or dirty, or dangerous. I don't think that necessarily makes for any more or less of a "sad life". I'm completely thankful to those that do those boring, dirty, or dangerous jobs. Some of them, like me, did it as an early first job sort of thing and used the work experience to get a better job: we paid our dues as it were. Others, like what I find unfulfilling or uninteresting. Some want to work outside, some want to work with their hands, some want to work with minds, and some simply want to be a bit financially better off than they are without the work.

> If you buy shares in a business that changes strategy on a monthly basis, you don't need more rapid reporting, you need to get out.

I think that with new companies, like Snapchat, Instagram, or even Uber, changing strategies on a monthly basis has become somewhat of a requirement.
But how do you choose which resources (books, articles, courses..) to include? Is it performed algorithmically or by hand? I was working on the similar project (dependency trees for concepts) and the biggest roadblock I faced was the addition of new resources, since it is laborious, doesn't scale well and is pretty subjective.
It comes from SOAP, which is supposed to be "protocol independent" so you would return statuses inside of the envelope section of the XML.
> While speed may be the single most important element of a UI, there is plenty about GNOME that is going to disappoint Unity users. The biggest gripe I have is keyboard shortcuts. Unity had them in spades. For as graphical as Unity is/was, it was also very easy to drive without taking your hands off the keyboard. GNOME lacks that level of shortcuts.

Can we please fix this before the convergence? Muscle memory and Linux go together like rosemary and garlic.
> Nobody cares about your Ayn Rand pablum anymore. Argue on morals that have any grounding at all in the real world.

Who said anything about Ayn Rand? Are you unfamiliar with political philosophy? Have you read Robert Nozick for example? I find it curious that you're using Ayn Rand here.

But with that aside, I am in fact arguing morals that have grounding in the real world. If you're unable to understand how force is abstracted then I can explain it for you, but you have to be willing to be educated on the subject.

The analogy presented was incredibly poor, one is seizing property, the other is a normal function of a liberal democracy.

I usually just load into Daydream and browse the store in VR. That way it only shows you Daydream-capable apps, plus you get a quick preview of the app's virtual environment whenever you open the page for that app.
Never heard of it until I heard everybody else making fun of it. But yeah America can't innovate. Everything is doomed. Hide under your pillow. Google can't create a self-driving car! SpaceX can't land reusable rockets! America can't innovate guys!!!

WinForms is not part of the .NET Standard API surface. See https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/?view=netstandar...

.NET Core does not include any UI libraries.

Nothing has changed with regard to WinForms on Linux. You can continue to use Mono's old WinForms implementation, but should not expect a perfect experience.
IMO Apple is the wrong example.

If you want to point out the death of innovation and competitive capitalism in the US, the real story is the slow rebuilding of the Bell Telephone and Standard Oil monopolies, and 19th century style financial trusts. 2040 will look like 1910.

You can literally trace the innovation of the internet in the context of the Bell breakup. Within my lifetime we will smash a ridiculous boat anchor on society, unleash a tsunami of innovation and improvement, and then put it back in a jar again. Very sad.

Of course it's the Guardian, so trolling for Apple haters/fanatics is the play.

> the alternative is to maintain a "drop-all.sql" file

If you really want to drop a whole schema (i.e. all its constituant objects) and recreate, then you could write a procedure to do so by cursoring through sys.objects (joined to other system tables as needed, sys.schemas to filter by name rather than schema ID for a start) and issuing "DROP <OBJECT> <name>" for each via "EXEC (@VarContainingDropStatement)". Having a built-in might be nice, but writing your own reusable procedure (rather than a more hard-coded script) should not be difficult.

> tedious and error-prone when making use of foreign-key relationships

If following the "cursor through sys.objects" approach that can be managed by making sure FK constraints are dropped first, either by forcing the objects listed out of the cursor into a particular order or by a separate loop first.

> T-SQL has MERGE, which is vastly more complicated and verbose.

I'm with you there. It also has some odd locking issues that you need to be aware of before they bite your rear.

I'd agree generally that T-SQL has some room for improvement. Date and string manipulation functions are sometimes lacking I find, though as I use little other than SQL Server I can't comment on other environments being better/worse. Being able to easily define a new aggregate procedure as I believe you can in postgres is something I could have made good use of in the past.
The goal is the ability to generate strings that match the "approximate sense of complexity" (ASC) of the subjects. To do so requires the ability to avoid any routine and inhibit prepotent responses.

Research goal was to measure cognitive ability and randomness is just measure stick. The actual mathematical complexity is correlated but there is human bias. The bias itself is irrelevant if it's constant. The relevant is how closely subjects can generate strings that appear random and complex (randomness with bias) for humans.

In other words

measure = statistical randomness + bias

Because the bias is almost universal (see the modulating factors in the article) it's not interfering with the thing they try to measure.
It's almost like identity is important to people or something.
It would be useful to show some concrete examples instead of just documentation.
The fact that you are already working on this says something about your willingness to do something distasteful to earn a paycheck. A slightly bigger paycheck would probably mean you would relax you morals even further. Even if your product starts out with stickers and no logging, I bet it doesn't stay that way for long. Not if the paycheck can be bigger.
This article had one interesting idea: the role of government funding in innovation. But rather than explore and flesh it out, it settled for a series of overgeneralized and unsubstantiated polemics against capitalism, akin to a sophomore political science student who's just finished the manifesto for the first time.
Does the chord sound kinda ... off to anyone else? I'm wondering whether this is because the note ratios aren't quite right to fall into a western twelve-tone scale, or whether it's just me!

Also - the headline isn't really very accurate. The puzzle (how the planets' resonance intervals could have remained stable over a long period of time) isn't actually fully understood; it's just that a paper has explained how it could stay stable for longer than previously thought. And the jazz musicians weren't even involved in that paper - they're only really involved in communicating why the problem is interesting.
The needs and use case for Google, Microsoft, and Facebook are radically different than anyone else. No developer should imitate them blindly because, chances are, the conditions you are working in do not match the big four. There is no ideal way of coding, instead, you match your style to what is needed. I wish more people understood that.
I've watched the same hysteria & concerns about all kinds of privacy-invading systems. Social Security Numbers, credit cards, computer IDs, camera GPS, search queries, and piles of other tech all start popularization with "OMG evil people can do evil things with that data to hurt you!" Save for a few holdouts (usually much older folks), society at large has completely accepted all that tech as normal. Just takes about a decade of the convenience overwhelming the fear. I despise SSNs, but cutting my taxes by $1500/yr (child tax credit) is motivating; credit cards suck for a zillion reasons, but swipe-and-done is so damn convenient; no question Google has an impressive model of me but those search results are enormously useful; etc.
This is true, the vast vast majority of stores have surveillance of some kind. Advertising's impact on the human psyche cant be underestimated. In the last ten years alone this has become increasingly apparent. Whether it be photoshopping images that manipulate our conception of beauty or dating apps that make us feel lonely enough to install.

I don't mind being recorded at a checkout.

Recording me to decipher my thoughts instead of my actions crosses a line.
I don't see why that would be more REST. POST is to be used for side-effecting operations, PUT is an optimization over POST for idempotent effectful operations.

Certainly a PUT solution might have some advantages for replayability in case of network partitions, but REST doesn't this choice dictate one way or the other.
> On the contrary: it’s yet another example of how profoundly anti-innovation America has become.

You can ignore any article that uses popular recent news to indicate a trend.

* Point out a recent popular item to ride on its success

* Class-baiting against the capitalists: They don't innovate, and they dodge taxes.

* Frame it as something Trump is working against

It looks like there's an argument like "The government should raise taxes on incompetent capitalists and fund basic research, since the money would otherwise go to juice machines", but I'm skeptical he's actually making an argument: It's more likely he's just telling people what they want to hear so they share his article.

If he was making a serious argument, he would've at least ran it by an economist or two so the reader would have something to follow up on.
> (NVidia loves to cease support for older GPU chips).

As someone who deals with old GPU support daily, I challenge this! The most recent drivers still support Fermi chips (GT400 series) that were released over 7 years ago.

I'm not sure how long you expect a chip to be supported?
Why turn off search history, youtube history, etc? Google likely gathers all of it anyway, so you might as well see what they keep regardless of your settings.

I suppose it's good in case your account gets leaked.

What about people who encrypt sensitive information locally, then back it up? That's perfectly secure in the common case, as long as you don't accidentally store sensitive information outside of your encrypted containers. But the moment you start backing up comprehensive key logs, anyone with access to the backups can decrypt your stuff.

In Q3 2016, following the Note 7 recall as well as losses for LG and HTC, Apple took 103.6% of the smartphone industry profits, in spite of having only 13.6% marketshare. I have no idea if monopoly is the right word, but it's kinda fucked up any way you look at it.

> I wouldn't want to know a company when, how often and which doctors I consult for one.

Depends. A lot of doctor's offices are in "medical parks," so it's entirely possible they don't know which doctor you are seeing or why. They have easier access to that information via your calendar (if you use it) than your location.

Europe Isn’t Buying Uber’s ‘We’re Just an App’ Argument – Motherboard
This is excellent but discovery has too much friction. I've been looking for something like the google knowledge graph for personal or business use haven't been able to find anything pre-made and I'm far too lazy to build it myself with Cayley or Neo4j or _insert graph database here_. Has anyone heard of anything similar?
Just want an easy way to search, and add entries to a graph database, hopefully with node-level permissions that can be applied.
I feel like it would help everyone, so I'd assume someone other than Google would have made it already but I haven't found it... anyone up to the task so I can be lazy?
Over here there's no choice in the limit of cover - EU mandates that every car insurance has to cover 5 million Euro in personal damages and 3 million in property damage. The only "optional" thing is whether you want to get comprehensive insurance which covers your own car for the damage caused by yourself - but 3rd party liability is always set to that 5 and 3 million by law.

I guess you could buy some specialist insurance which would cover more but unless you are planning on crashing into multiple Bugatti Veyrons, it's pretty much impossible to hit that limit.

Reminds of a law here in Sweden and how car surveillance work on the bridge to Denmark. The law forbids the unnecessary registration of people so in order to avoid breaking the law the police have a live system in place where information of a car on the danish side get show on a screen on the Swedish side, giving border and toll guards enough time to react. The whole thing is legal only because the system operate live and never store any data, which otherwise would create a illegal register with personal information.

The cern thing was not presented as solid evidence just we don't understand what's going on. The question is how much evidence it would take you to change that belief vs someone to change their stance on global warming. Supose, the consensus in 3 years was they where going faster than the speed of light would you have updated your beliefs then? Because that's not even close to enough evedence for say global worming opponents.

Further many people disagreed with QM even with a lot of evedence backing it because it was so different from what they where used to. They essentially had not threshold to update their beliefs.
I think it's a question of balance, depending on how strong a position you are.

If you are in a position of weakness, feeling sorry for yourself, recovering from something you are judging yourself on - then you absolutely should start with self-compassion, being kind to yourself.

To continue in this mode would ultimately hit your ambition and drive, so if you are in a bit of a stronger position mentally, a higher gear, then boosting your self-esteem is more important.
Yeah chord sounds like shit. Just tuned, as it is called with perfect intervals, it should sound wonderful, and anything else wouldn't really be stable in the way the astronomy portion of the article seems to say.

There's not nearly as much money in security as most security consultants would like you to believe. It's in their best interest for most people to believe there's a huge amount of money waiting for you if you switch to security.

Unless you're someone with specialized experience (crypto), you as a pentester are worth around $100k/yr. That's excellent money, but it's not the massive margin that would drive people away from webdev.
