Let me guess... You don't like the path completion?

The only credible complaint I've heard against PowerShell terminal is path completion. I call it credible, because it's an actual behavioral difference with meaningful impact. Myself, I actually prefer the Windows path completion, where it fills the entire path and hitting tab again will cycle through the available options. Nothing drives me crazier than going into a directory generally knowing what I want, typing in a few letters, hit tab, get a subset of the path completed, think about what's there and where I want to go, figure out the next letter I need to type, hit tab again and hope for the best. When in reality there's only a few options that match my original text, and just hitting tab to cycle between them is pretty ergonomic. And shift-tab even cycles in the other direction, for those rare times when there actually is a huge list and you hit tab a little too quickly.

But for those who prefer the other way for some reason, there are projects like PSReadLine:

No, but on the other hand, membership in the priesthood implies a direct responsibility for the wellbeing of those in your pastoral care, and a degree of authority, derived from one's position, which can be abused to do great harm. I'm not really sure what there is about being a freshman at Harvard that merits the same extent of scrutiny.
While true, I was more thinking that there would be shortage of something between those moons. Maybe I'm mistaken
That's a great thought.. can anyone chime in?
You aren't. People have complained in the past but to no avail.

I follow the author on twitter because her occasionally posted comics/zines are great. Bite-sized chunks of actually correct technical information about systems-level topics. I don't know that they are artistic or funny (not to be overly critical, I merely mean aside from the knowledge they transfer, I don't know if one would read them solely for enjoyment), but they are technically excellent, and often a good supplement to the much drier technical docs they derive from.

I like this style of writing, as well: "I'm learning this new thing, come with me and I'll explain it as I figure it out."
Now that you mention it, I do weekly timed runs (http://www.parkrun.org.uk/), and I definitely treasure my "ribbon" (the email I receive confirming my time and position).

I time the runs myself on my phone so the email has little real purpose, but for some reason it's very satisfying to know that my efforts have been logged in a database.

I'm unlikely to ever hit the top 20, so this is very much a participation trophy. Maybe they can be motivating after all?
Could you be denied admittance to Harvard because you showed up on campus at some kind of freshman event and started telling extremely offensive jokes in front of the whole gathering? How is a Facebook group full of people you don't know any different?
>FB issue aside, I think people should be allowed to joke about whatever they want in private.

They were allowed to post it, nothing stopped them. Its just that after they did Harvard made the (IMO reasonable) decision to revoke their acceptance.
But making that shit turn up everywhere just normalizes it. People start seeing those things and agreeing with them, no matter how "ironically" he intending them to be taken.

Ideas like "let's get Donald Trump elected for the lulz" have real-world effects. "It was just for laughs, mate" isn't really a good excuse. At a certain point, it approaches "watching the world burn" territory.

There is a great need to hurry up with enthusing and glamorising the most sustainable human consumables and activities and interests, by the truly effective means of our Age (mass commercial and public advertising) This also means stigmatising and depreciating many kinds of commerce and spending which have to date been marketed and defended as rightful livelihoods.

It is past time to be just tending our own very fine gardens. We need to make it difficult for each other to pollute and mis-consume, like we did with smoking.
Historically, class difference has been one of the major qualifiers for grouping people with different experience. A person growing up poor on a farm and eating roots and tree sprouts as candy substitute (not a joke) is not going to have much in common with a person growing up in the city by rich parents and who could just go across the street and buy something whenever they wanted. Much of last century of political struggle on a global scale has been about class, and much of current political landscape is made from it. Fears and the options presented to you are much more dictated by class than race or gender (which a fair amount of study concludes over a long range of subjects).

The diversity movement do not care about class. A poor white man is hated as much as a rich white man. I can only conclude that "personal experience" and "fears and the options presented" are not factors.

I agree, but what is new is that suddenly kids are having their college acceptances revoked for dead baby jokes that the administrators probably also joked about 30 years ago, when they were 18.
There is lots of speech I dislike and don't support, but I don't oppress speakers or advocate for their oppression because I don't want people oppressing me when the tide turns. Supporting free speech is not the same as supporting the content of the speech.

Also worth pointing out that Harvard receives a lot of public dollars, so it's not the canonical private institution. Remember when everyone freaked out that the salvation army wouldn't employ openly gay preachers (but would employ homosexually in any other role) because though they were a private entity, they received NYC tax dollars, and then everyone freaked out when the SA announced that they would decline those tax dollars and reduce the scope of their work in the city accordingly?

Humans have been seeking to alter their state of mind for pretty much as long as there have been humans and they will continue to do so.

Why do we need to decide if someone is "really racist" in the first place? To make ourselves feel good about being morally superior? To feel offended on behalf of people who we may not even understand?

Political correctness really has gotten out of hand, and the sooner people realize this, the sooner they'll begin to understand how we ended up with Trump as president.

The pendulum swings both ways. Be careful how hard you push it.

People worried about free speech rights should realize that Harvard is a private university.

If I held a party at my house and didn't want to invite you because you called my dog a 'mutt', you'd get laughed out of court if you tried to sue me over it.

People should be allowed to organize under whatever principles they want to organize under. Disallowing Harvard to use whatever criteria they want to use to admit students, unless of course they breach civil rights laws, is ultimately decreasing the amount of intellectual diversity in the world.

People that don't like Harvard can apply to any other college. There's no shortage of them to choose from. But if you tell Harvard what they can and can't do, you run the risk of destroying the individuality of Harvard.

Also, there's some mumbling about the fact that it was private speech that was supposedly surveilled on. Obviously it wasn't that private if school administrators caught wind of it. If you really want a private group, keep it truly private and don't tell anyone about it.

The lesson kids should be taking away from this is, don't let your friends drag you into dangerous situations. Harvard is a nationally recognized school, any screw-ups earn national attention. It's very much a "if you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen" sort of situation.
Or one just have to accept that actions have consequences. This has always been true and, like everything else, computers haven't changed anything they've just made it more efficient.

Grab data out of a web page in Python
You probably couldn't if you did so as a student, especially if doing so for a student publication. Reminds me of how the University of Illinois rescinded a tenure offer to Steven Salaita after he was accused of being anti-Semitic in tweets about Gaza. He would have been safe if he had tweeted after officially accepting the job: https://www.nytimes.com/2014/09/13/world/middleeast/professo...
He's asking which technology you're using. For example you could say LAMP (linux, apache, mssql, php), or you could say .NET, or you could say python. Basically whatever you coded your backend + front end in.
Presumably they were all jests in bad taste though?
i watched 5 people fail to matriculate at my alma mater in 2002 for similarly adolescent idiocy. they happened to do it on campus during orientation, but little else seems different.
True, but not having the student loan debt means you have more disposable income and that can be invested starting straight after high school.
Another way to reduce meat and animal product consumption, though counter intuitive, may be bone broth / anything with gelatin or glycine. I understand it has a "protein sparing" effect, meaning you can eat less protein total without muscle wasting. Our ancestors got a higher ratio of this stuff by eating more of the whole animal, rather than eating primarily muscle muscle bellies, as we tend to do today.
Private organizations going "nah, we don't want you here, get out" isn't oppression. Your right to free speech doesn't supersede my right to free association.
Perhaps Operating System would be a better example.

It is hard to map an analogy 100% (after all it is an analogy).

I wouldn't assume anything about the OP particularly given how poor the original comment was (including not telling what his/her findings were).
Addictive in what sense? Opioid withdrawal can kill you. My understanding is cannabis is only mildly addictive and essentially results in short term irritability and a small rise in blood pressure for a few hours to a few days.

Anecdotally, the biggest potheads I know can take a month off without impact to their lives.

Regarding anxiety and panic attacks, I'm sure that's possible, but people don't die from it. An extra cup of coffee would do something similar for a longer period of time.

I don't think we've studied cannabis enough to truly know the negatives, but even heavily discounted historical and anecdotal evidence would suggest it's less harmful than opioids. That potential for harm might be low enough that you simply try it first for pain management, before moving on to stronger things that carry their own sets of risks. I'm not a doctor (or a cannabis enthusiast), just what I think I think.
I agree. The ability to speak one's mind is good, important thing to have in our society. But it's not primary to being a good person. An institution should be able to set its own standard of decency.
It probably only works if you have a ton of random shit installed and running in the b/g - which isn't most reviewers, but is most users.
In this case, police obtained the location data from Timothy Carpenter's cell phone service provider without a warrant, and that data was used to help convict him of a string of robberies by placing him near the scene of each crime.

Carpenter and the ACLU say that because police failed to obtain a warrant related to that location data, it violates his Fourth Amendment right against unreasonable search and seizure. The government says it needs only to demonstrate reasonable grounds, not probable cause, to access the data.

The larger question, though, is not whether police should be required to obtain a warrant to access location data from cell phone service providers, but whether cell phone service providers should be providing this information to police without a warrant.

In other words, if cell phone service providers were taking their customers' privacy (and constitutional rights) seriously, then this Supreme Court case should actually be the government suing a cell phone service provider for not turning over customer data in a case where a warrant has not been issued.
And of course they should, because free association exists (pursuant to the bounds of contracts, which don't appear to be violated here--h/t kudu), so why are you whatabouting?
Ask HN: How to change security culture?
My software developer colleagues have what I consider to be "dangerously wrong" attitudes about software security. I'm at a loss for how to persuade them to improve. I've tried to provide clear, friendly, not-pointing-fingers feedback, but I'm moetly met with smiles and nods and then the code moves into production with the security flaws intact. I see no signs that management cares.

Is there a technique that you've used successfully to change developer (or management) attitudes?

After decades of denazification and tabooisation of national socialism and anything related, we still have a shocking proportion of Nazis in Germany. Openly self-identified Nazis, only a fraction of a percent, but people who agree with statements like "A strong leader (Führer) would be better than democracy" or "Jews are foreign bodies in the German people" - 15-20% according to some studies. And it's not talked about much, but in my opinion we have a bigger problem with right wing terrorism than with islamic terrorism here.

In the US, it is similar. Decades after the civil rights movement and Martin Luther King, rampant racism again, people flying the confederate flag, white people killing black people.

What do I want to say with that? People often wish back the past few decades, before social media, which seemed more "civilized". I honestly think now, no, people were not more civilized, we just kept a tighter lid on what people thought.

I don't want to hear the racists, bigots, sexists either... but just silencing them does not seem to actually change peoples minds.

And also (I say this as a left-wing/liberal), I myself want to have a space where I can just say what the fuck I want, without consequences. "It is not my revolution" if I can't say idiotic things in private.

(Edit: And of course, you are right, and I agree with your comment. Please don't view this as a refutation, but as a second-order correction :-))

You are defending the "right of privacy and free speech" by shitting on other people's right to freely associate with the people they choose to.

Almost like it isn't about "free speech" at all.

If it was really private, the school wouldn't have heard about it and this would never have happened. If I call you names in private, and someone tells you, you'd be well within your right to be upset about it.

This was a university-moderated and maintained facebook group. There was absolutely no expectation on the part of the posters that Harvard could not read their words. You can get expelled for public speech on campus too.
Every Harvard student has a shared responsibility with every other student for the quality and tone of the community as a whole. Harvard cultivates a very specific type of community. These candidates signaled to Harvard through their actions that they are not conducive to the community Harvard is trying to cultivate (whether true or not).
How to compete with giants with 100$
I suspect that one way or the other the military and spy agencies will be funding the further development for national security and weapons reasons. It may not be known, but they are (or will be) funding either directly or indirectly.
I don't think that standards should be lowered for high school seniors. These are people who are legally allowed to vote, join the army, buy guns, etc.., and for these people it's go to Harvard. They should know that it's unacceptable to share memes about sexual violence, racism, and whatnot, especially on Facebook. When I was in 6th grade (I'm 21 now), my school gave us the talk about the internet, saying that whatever you post on the internet is forever. This might have been exaggerated, but definitely not for a Facebook account that had your name attached to it, and a group chat that's directly splintered from your incoming Harvard class group page.

At the same time, I have a bit of a personal story. When I was in 8th grade, I made a Facebook account, and uploaded a random picture with a random caption involving rape - at the time my friends and I used the word like when you beat someone at a video game... Yeah it was pretty bad. My mom found the picture and responded by screaming at me and basically taking my computer away for a while, and my Facebook deactivated for much longer. I didn't understand at the time why it was such a big deal (maybe more explaining could have happened) but that interaction both makes me cringe every time I think about it and might have been the best thing to happen to me. Maybe getting the acceptences revoked is just the kick in the ass that they need.
Actually, it isn't. Racism is based in the belief that one group is superior to the other. If one is making an ironic joke, it does not imply any intent of racism on their part.

<As a private organization it is perfectly entitled to pick and choose what matters to it.>

This is an aside, but I don't entirely agree. The tax exemption Harvard receives on its massive endowment is, per undergraduate, worth much more than the direct government subsidy public universities receive per student. UC Berkeley alone enrolls more low income students than the entire Ivy League combined (this is true of several UCs). Harvard also gets a monumental amount of funding directly from the federal government, and while much of this is in the form of research grants, it is allowed to redirect a substantial portion of this to operating costs.

Harvard gets this government favored status (in many ways, far more favored by the government than a "public" university, which has many more obligations) precisely because it is ostensibly acting in the public interest.
Yes! I often find myself making this point -- i.e. that the supposed problem indicates that the reader has made an incorrect assumption about an imaginary elision. Cf. "5 items or less [stuff]", "$5 or less [money]".
You can get fired from a job at private company for posting racist material on the internet. I'm not sure how acceptance to a private college is any different. It's better that they learn this lesson now, rather than when a salary depends on it. They're smart/accomplished enough to get into Harvard and they'll all likely rebound from this.

To be fair to the original article, his assertion was more along the lines of you can't train a deep net without lots of data. As the second article shows, that isn't true in the general case. However, it is certainly true for creating any of the interesting models you think of when you think of deep nets (i.e., Inception, word2vec, etc.). You just can't the richness of these without a lot of data to train them.
So, you're actually saying something like P(N_l = L | N_f = F) or P(N_f = F | N_l = L) is (for those sub-populations) high, while P(N_l = L, N_f = F) is still globally not common. That makes more sense, but is a different statement - the combined names are common within a local population but still uncommon globally.
I don't see the point in being honest about why I left my last two positions.

If I was totally honest it would come across as an insult to the company and its management/HR teams I'm sure, and I've been advised never to burn bridges.

There is a slim chance my criticisms could have improved conditions for the colleagues I left behind, but I find it very unlikely.
That does sound more likely.
