Regarding "Scientific" - we just added the Data Science Workload to Visual Studio 2017. Check it out here:

Basically Python + Anaconda, R + Microsoft enhanced R, F# with .Net as a single install. Python & R work with any interpreter, including IronPython & Pypy.
> Why would you expect inflation? All sane UBI proposals don't create money, they just move money from rich people to poor people.

If UBI is funded via taxes on labor and its products (income and consumption taxes) then one should expect further inflation in housing prices, and ultimately the transfer of money from productive workers and entrepeneurs to unproductive landholders and mortgage lenders.

If you don't want this transfer to occur, then you need to fund it via a land value tax, which does not allow landholders to charge higher rent in proportion to increased public spending.

If you are funding UBI via increased taxes on income and consumption rather than land, then you run the risk of making the majority of people poorer if housing, rent, and mortgage costs increase faster than their UBI transfer payments increase.
This is an argument that highlights the difference between attack and defence in cyber: attack is easier than defence, an is the most chosen path because of this reason.

Your point is actually valid, but that doesn't mean I have the intention to pardon the NSA for having compromised the network of my university, the same network I used each and every single day during my studies (and no, I am not a terrorist, nor I know anyone involved in terrorism, child pornography, or what-else they had in mind).

Sorry to say, but "anyone is doing it", is not an excuse or a reason for doing something.

If instead of exploiting half of the world, they had dedicated their experience in making their (and everyone else) infrastructure safer (by sharing security conscious design concepts, considerations with software developers and hardware manufacturers), now we probably would not have had massive botnets, exploitations and leaks (least but not least the political consequences of perpetrating and sustaining this kind of decisions).

Where is the point when maintaining the supremacy of one's country over the others through deceit, intrigue, and espionage costs too much in terms of negative outcomes?

For me that line, US and many others included, has been passed a long time ago. But that's just my humble opinion. Each one is free to draw conclusions through his own point of view.
Custom operating systems would require higher development costs and extremely rare sysadmin skills, which would mean larger hospital budgets, which would mean higher taxes or premiums.

Yeah, not gonna happen.
That's fine when a few people want a car in the city, but when millions of people in a busy city want the same thing, then it's unsustainable, there's literally not enough room for everyone to have a car since (even ignoring the amount of road space you need for everyone to drive around after they get off the high-speed car-train) you need two spaces for every person (one at home, one at work) -- the size of a person's required parking spaces (and the travel lanes to get to them) approach the size of an urban housing unit, so parking alone cuts urban density by 1/2.

The kind of low to mid-density area that can support everyone owning a car is not the kind of high-density area that can afford to pay billions of dollars for high-speed car tunnels.

If you want to use your car, use it outside of the city, don't displace housing in the city so you can park your car for the 22 hour a day you're not using it.

I may find it very convenient to drive every where in my 40 foot motorhome so literally all of my stuff is with me at all times, but that's not going to happen.

Small correction: Nearly everything in WikiLeaks Vault 7 material was already patched (With the exception of something Cisco related which has since been patched I believe). The Vault 7 content was from CIA.

This issue is apparently based on a more recent leak by the Shadow Brokers, containing content from NSA and some other DoD elements who worked on offensive cyber operations.

> This guy didn't experience what happens in most mental breakdowns.

Your case is really not what I would call "most mental breakdowns" and it's unfair to belittle someone else's issues because they don't match up to yours. Mental issues are an everyday reality for millions of people, and by their very nature might mean the world to those suffering from it while seeming insignificant to everyone else.

You don't need to emphasize the severity your own experience, feeling shit is not a competition.
> We should keep building cities the way people did for thousands of years, with mostly little 10-foot wide

To do that, first you need to forget about all best practices and problems that have been fixed and issues regarding quality of life and even safety.

No one bothers building little 10-foot wide streets because that's an appalingly bad idea. Slums aren't known for their quality of life, and no emergency service can pass through 10-foot wide streets.

It's fine to certify devices for certain software, but a device must either be free to maintain and secure or it's not connected to a network.

If someone has a computer hooked to an MRI machine and to the hospital network, and it runs outdated/insecure software then someone made a mistake somewhere.
This appears to lead to the conclusion "UBI is impossible" only if we include the premises "It's impossible to reduce COL" and "It's impossible to increase tax revenues."
That sounds horrible, and much worse than my experience with "losing it". I had a medication-induced hypomanic episode. I stopped eating and sleeping for three days, but never felt tired. I was paranoid, severely agitated and would fly into a rage over small things. I also had what are called "ideas of reference". I thought ordinary things I encountered were placed there specifically for me.

The solution was worse. I was put on risperidone to halt the episode. It was a total 180, in a bad way. I felt stupefied and sluggish. I couldn't put two thoughts together most of the day. I ate everything, everything; once to the point of vomiting. I had extremely vivid and bizarre nightmares nightly.

It was a Catch-22 situation. I needed the antidepressants to battle winter depression, but SSRIs were the only ones that worked. However, those have a well-known side effect of triggering mania in people (and in my case, for sure).

Happy ending is that I moved to the tropics and haven't had to take any medication and have had no relapses since the move.

Edit: Wow a lot of bs going on in the comments. First of all, there's an immense number of ways a DNA strand can degrade, and only one of them splits the strand in two. The relative importance of all these pathways depend on the environment of the DNA, which obviously changes for each and every fossil you have. The global kinetics of "DNA degradation" are supposedly first-order, which implies constant half-life.

North Korea offered peace many times. It's the U.S that doesn't want to accept it. See my other post. The U.S. goal simply isn't to reduce the chance of a war and it's even less to improve the state of the people there (or anywhere actually). "Bringing democracy" when the U.S. politicians say it always mean something else as it would be naively expected. Best observed on recent Iraq and Syria examples.

The U.S has a huge history of the direct organization of toppling the regimes only on the principle "they don't do what we want them to do." Therefore, Saudi Arabia, one of the most intolerant places on the Earth "are the friends" and the dictators are somewhere else. And these "friends" thanks to that "friendly" support magnificently exported their mind-boggling intolerance all around the world. And some circles bend over backwards to teach us that "it's good so."

So, if we assume that the dinosaur has 1 billion base pairs in its genome (huge assumption, see my other comment), it has degraded over 110 million years with a half life of 512 years, there is functionally 0 base pairs left[1] in each dna helix. Even statics can't help much there! I'm wide open to the possibility that I am incredibly wrong in any one of these assumptions however

Cisco's Talos team analysis of WannaCry worm
Intrinsic value is a real thing. Land has it. Labour has it. Companies and machinery do. Anything that can produce useful things. And of course the useful things themselves.

The real reason for the value of currencies is not the gold backing up that currency, but the economy backing it up. And when that economy goes down, so does the currency. And that's the problem with bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies: they only have value when people accept them as payment for something valuable. Without that, they are worthless, as shown by both the history of bitcoins and other cryptocurrencies, and by the fact that anyone can make a cryptocurrency.

Bitcoin works as long as there are enough people who have faith in it, and as long as there are a lot of people accepting it as payment. But when nobody accepts it because nobody trusts it, then bitcoin is worthless. Trust is the only thing it's based on.

Of course being able to pay digitally is tremendously useful, but you don't need bitcoin for that.

Interesting comment -- thanks for that.

It also reminds me of one of my favorite aphorisms: "Perfect is the enemy of good enough".

What some other commenters appear to have missed is the use case I'm discussing here: scraping log files to generate text files to feed to gnuplot.

And while the approach presented here may not work at Google scale, it works just fine for my situation. It takes me about 10 minutes on my MacBook to churn through around 50GB of logs to produce a few dozen charts. It took about a week to put the scripts together, and now anybody on my team with a shell prompt can do the same thing (including the QA folks).

Sometimes you need to dot all the i's and cross all the t's, but sometimes it's just about getting the job done quickly, with minimal dependencies.

I mentioned that:

> But people find themselves in these insurmountable goals and feel like they need to do so much work, that brings other questions. Why them? What is everyone else doing?

If you find yourself in that situation, you may want to ask why this is happening, because it's strange. You should also realize that the chance of failure is very high, and if your goal is truly important to you, that should worry you.

I'm not saying this in the sense of "you should/shouldn't pursue your goal", I have no idea, I don't know what your goal is. But strangeness is often a highly valuable source of information. You really, really need to know why nobody else is pursuing your goal, and that information could help you find more people to help with your goal to address the second concern.

On a more fundamental level, answering that question could put the value of the goal in jeopardy, or, on the other hand, make it that much more important.
That's no rebuttal.
Glad you liked it! Like I said in the article, I continue to be amazed at the things you can do with a simple bash prompt.
Incitement to violence requires intent for the violence to actually occur. I believe this distinction is why you get things like pastors of megachurches who advocate for the idea that all gay people deserve to be killed, but they're not actually intending for any specific act to be carried out and therefore aren't technically inciting violence.
You can explicitly reject the analogy.

That doesn't make you correct.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9532958

Crime is a public health issue. It shares common causes with ill health, particularly poverty, and fear of violent crime is itself a major cause of anxiety. Community development in pre-school education, parental education, and among ethnic minorities, both reduces crime and promotes better health, for example in reducing the effects of alcohol and illicit drugs. Health workers should contribute in full to community development.

I note that I'm standing with my earlier characterisation of a public health domain rather than weather, but both carry very strong similarities, including a risk / forecast / mitigations approach.

I've read it. I liked the premise for The House of Leaves and really _wanted_ to like the book, but to be honest, the whole experience felt a little gimmicky to me. I got to parts that were obnoxiously annoying to read (e.g. the shrinking tunnel), and the story didn't really feel worth it.

S. has some of this too (the handwriting in the columns takes time to make out), but because the quality of narrative and the overall refinement of the product were so high, I didn't mind. Given a choice between the two books, I'd certainly start with this one.

According to his initial explanation - "In a peer to peer botnet, bots which can receive incoming connections act as servers (called supernodes)."

So in some cases the only requirement for a node to be a supernode is that it can receive incoming connections. I take this to mean that any computer that is 1. infected with the botnet program, 2. can receive incoming connections, becomes a supernode. Under those circumstances there's no need to reverse engineer the botnet program, all you have to do is set up a vulnerable computer, allow it to be compromised and infected becoming a supernode; then monitor the traffic of incoming connections.

He later mentions that supernodes can be filtered based on "age, online time, latency, or trust." This tells me that certain botnets do have a level of trust that is defined in each peer list.

I believe your last question refers to the concept of sinkholing or blackholing. These methods have been used by the FBI to take down botnets through DNS hijacking, I think.

This may be an unpopular opinion, but making ancient x86 features unreliable strikes me as a good thing. Virtual 8086 mode is an awful virtualization solution, as you can't enter protected mode from within it. This makes it only good for running a subset of DOS apps: either real-mode-only apps or those written to an unspecified subset of DPMI [1]. Ryzen CPUs are easily fast enough to emulate them. And if that's not enough, x86 has had real virtualization for years now, with a functioning protected mode (and long mode!) in addition to real mode.

We're long overdue for a simplification of the PC platform. Having CPUs out there with broken legacy features accelerates the migration away from those features. Hopefully this leads to dropping them outright at some point.

I've got a slow-ish machine running Windows 10 (4GB RAM, Intel GPU, Atom-descended quad-core Celeron). The Java version of Minecraft runs at maybe 2-5 FPS. I wouldn't call the Windows Store version "smooth", but it's probably closer to 10-20 FPS, with the same distance settings. For the sake of argument, I'd be willing to assume that Java code is slower than (say) the equivalent natively-compiled code, but probably not anything close to 5x slower.

Maybe there are some different features that make one slower than the other? I don't know. I just know that the Java version is slower, and that the difference in language probably isn't enough to account for it. Difference in features and difference in quality of implementation are the two possibilities that stick out in my mind as culprits for the difference in performance.

It appears the Theresa May is trying to deflect attention from the fact that there has been massive under investment in NHS IT infrastructure by reinforcing that it is a 'international attack on a number of countries and organisations'.
