I don't think there is any reason to believe that any places, no matter how far sighted, can expect lightning to strike more than once. These booms happen when some technological advance precipitates a cluster of development. Eventually, that technology becomes commoditized, the margins fall out, the work gets shipped overseas. The next boom is going to cluster somewhere else and you're not going to be able to predict what will cause it. Why did the auto industry arise in Detroit? Why did the airline industry arise in Seattle?
Sorry I'm not sure. What I am sure of is that you can google as well as me (if not better) on this subject, but here goes:

https://github.com/ChromeDevTools/awesome-chrome-devtools#ch... has a buch of pointers and mentions the Python-based https://github.com/iiSeymour/chromote (235 stars) - if you've got something going, try to add your project to the list!

Also found https://github.com/minektur/chrome_remote_shell (51 stars) and https://github.com/mirumee/chromedebug (26 stars)
It matters to me how they got there. There's a limit to what I'm prepared to do to rescue someone from his own bad decisions.

Besides, this was a point on language. If you make a lot of money but blow it all on expensive cars and travel, you're not "barely getting by".
I don't have a FB account.
Nah, Facebook shows you political and clickbait snippets with links to off-site ad heavy articles and also does autoplay videos of dogs.

On rare occasions, it notifies you that somebody got engaged or had a baby, but that's about the only similarity to Monica as far as I can tell.
Massachusetts's enforcement of non-competes and poor performance relative to California is the classic variation, first (or at least famously) pointed out in 1994 and subject of many studies since; http://webdoc.sub.gwdg.de/ebook/serien/lm/DRUIDwp/10-02.pdf is one from 2011 that extends analysis to all US metros: less enforcement correlated with more employment, business establishments, and patents (sigh) even if the SF bay area is excluded.

Do what you're sold^H^H^H^Htold.
Except it sure seems like in this case, yeah, they bungled it. At the very least a total lack of awareness or care towards infosec to help protect sources (regardless of the fact that the lack of awareness extends to the source - I'd want a journalist to be better at this than I am if I were leaking information). [ The article doesn't mention this, but I wouldn't be surprised if these microdots, rather than "a crease" were the smoking gun: https://twitter.com/quinnnorton/status/871883733032415236 ]

That's your shell rather than the OS.

I've been writing my own Linux $SHELL and one of the features is that asterisks don't get expanded by the shell to avoid accidental bugs from the situations you described.
Nice story.

My moment was something my father used to say. I realized how bad i am (still) naturally at critical thinking.

There is a 50% chance of rain today. Until i was in college i really believed that this meant 5 of the 10 weatherman voted yes for rain and 5 voted no.
As far as I understand it, there's core.matrix which is intended as sort of a universal Clojure API for linear algebra. There are different implementations of the core.matrix API, like the pure JVM vectorz-clj, BLAS based clatrix and even a clojurescript one, aljabr. Incanter uses core.matrix and can therefore use these different implementations. However, the Neanderthal library does not support core.matrix, so Incanter can't use it.

As for why Neanderthal doesn't support core.matrix, I don't know. I see the author is active in this thread, so he can probably give a much better answer, but from reading the mailing lists I gather he mainly created Neanderthal to scratch his own itch, so core.matrix support wasn't a priority.
With the new optimizing compiler (Turbofan) landing, JavaScript `Exception` are now usable without significant performance penalty: great news !

A bit of context: v8 used to have troubles optimizing code which contained `try/catch` sections, which led to massive performance issues on hot parts of the code in Chrome and deterred a lot of people from using Exceptions in JavaScript (including node). Glad to see this bug finally fixed !

Physical security metaphors are irrelevant to the Internet because there is no physical equivalent to issuing one command that will simultaneously try to break into every door in the United States and report back to you the ones its succeeds with. That is just one example of a relevant difference that prevents physical metaphors from working. I could come up with half-a-dozen more without hardly trying, but one is adequate.
Not having to compete is what got us Bell Labs.
A minority of police shootings involve violent crime. You will also notice that nonviolent crimes are the biggest issue, with BLM most concerned about things like Eric Garner or Tamir Rice, who was twelve years old.

"Perusal of Table 4 reveals that suspects were an average age of 36, with whites somewhat older
than blacks. Thirty-nine percent of the suspects were involved in a violent crime, 17% in a property
crime, and 5% in a drug crime. Hispanics were less likely to be involved in a violent crime,
while blacks were more likely to be involved in a property crime than whites or Hispanics.
Blacks are least likely to be armed."

Great to chat with you as well, great conversation and I appreciate the hard questions. Median teacher salary in 2012 was $59k according to public school data, restaurant servers with tips make the highest salary per geo of the restaurant industry in San Francisco clocking in at $50k base with between $20-50k in tips totaling $70k to $100k. We don't want to stop at $50k as a baseline though. Our 3 buildings under construction will have suites that can be afforded on a $25k a year salary. Our goal is to build, at scale, for those making minimum wage. We can only do that by brining down the cost of housing further which is the core focus of our business.
Given that 1m3 of water is 1000kg in normal conditions, it is 10000m3 of water, which can be represented as ~21m cube. Not tiny, but nothing to click off for.
I partly agree with your concerns that the Intercept should be more cautious about attribution of leaks, although there may not have been anything they could have done to protect this alleged source in this situation. I just wanted to respond to

> Greenwald is not located in the United States for a reason (so good luck knocking on that door),

Greenwald has said he moved to Brazil because he wanted to be with his partner and that was the solution that they chose; at the time, one couldn't sponsor an immigrant visa for a same-sex partner in the United States.

This document wasn't reported by Glenn Greenwald, but rather by Matthew Cole, Richard Esposito, Sam Biddle, Ryan Grim, who all appear to live in the United States. Almost all of the Intercept's reporters who report on and publish leaked classified materials live and work in the U.S.
I like this idea. :) We could even collaborate if interested. For the very same purposes, plus to organize everything else I want to, I wrote and use OneModel (AGPL), creating inside it a calendar with ticklers, lists of gift ideas or other ideas for activities, etc, all sorted by when I want to see them or how I can most easily find them in a hierarchy. I have created a sort of structure for things I might to remember about each person (journal of past interactions, contact info, etc etc) that I also use for my dealings with some businesses so I can revisit who said what when, if needed. And it can auto-provide the structure in for future persons or organizations I add to my contact list, but only when wanted. Same with anything else I want to track.

And it creates a soft of personal journal for me as a side-effect, by exporting everything created (or archived) for date ranges, so my odd random notes fit in also. It lets you optionally mark things as public or private, export things as .txt outlines or an .html mini-web site, and (hopefully) soon exchange info with others if desired. Self- or my-hosted.

Unfortunately, OM also lacks a nice video and installation is still manual (some postgres config instructions then "java -jar...") until interest warrants a real installer. I use it for everything (no mobile support yet) and it is extremely efficient for a touch typist, and easy to learn as everything is on the screen in menus generated context-sensitively on the fly.

I once went around and taped a note to about 50 doors in my neighborhood. As I recall, two of them opened at my touch - they weren't securely latched. At that point, it didn't matter if they were locked.
It's a quote from Glengarry Glen Ross. That is one of Alec Baldwin's lines.
Normalization is not that expensive if you only care to do normalization-insensitive string comparison and string hashing.

The reason it's not that expensive is: a) this requires no memory allocation, and b) most characters in most strings require no normalization!

Notionally you just look at pairs of next codepoints, and if the second one isn't combining and the first one is canonical for the chosen NF (a very fast check for ASCII!), then there's no need to normalize the first, otherwise you gather the combining codepoints and normalize, producing one normalized character and restarting the process where you left off. Most of the time the first codepoint requires no normalization, so the fast path is fast -- not as fast as a normal strcmp() or memcmp(), but still pretty fast.
You are sure to get good pricing at that point!
All good points in the article. But, looks like Wizergos also has a Meeting Management tool. But in the website I could not find any pricing information.
I got skewered in /r/cscareerquestions several months ago for suggesting that any Ivy had a top-tier CS program. It may not be reality, but there is definitely a strong perception.

I would like a minimal CRM for super-connectors. People like investors, promoters, etc. who traffic in relationships, and develop social capital from making introductions.

When trying to make an introduction, it's exceedingly hard to search your extensive network under certain criteria. Particularly if you want "fuzzy" matching, i.e. not just restricted to a specific geography or tag (e.g. "entrepreneur"), but looking for nearby geographies and tags.

[edit: Facebook has recently disabled Graph search features and it is exceedingly difficult even to figure out which of your friends is in a particular city.]
At the same time, would you want to work with a guy who raped some body? Lets assume that the video was leaked on facebook or something and there isn't much doubt about the guilt.
That's a good point. I forget, because I have a bunch of DO boxes: several, sometimes, for each client.
I obviously formulated this wrong. Will rephrase, but doesn't the intuiton generally hold that when you find an eigenvector for one eigenvalue, then you can construct infinite number of eigenvectors by scaling that one?
Thanks for going out of your way to add support for GitLab!

First day of 8th month..
Have we learned nothing about the NSA's tactics? The Intercept publishes reporting that they would rather not have been printed, and the very day the DOJ unseals charges where they try to say they learned about the leak from a paper crease from what can be reasonably inferred to be The Intercept. Meanwhile the alleged leaker allegedly used her work computer to contact The Intercept (in contradiction with their recommended best practices).

It has all the appearances of the government trying to smear a news outlet and ensure no one leaks to them again.

Do we still really trust the NSA? It was disappointing yet expected from the WaPo that they took as fact everything the DOJ alleged about how the case proceeded.
What industry?
I can't answer all your questions, but I will say this, as I had to learn it the hard way: getting faster by getting better is great. But you also need to get faster by being more comfortable with imperfection. Perfect code doesn't exist, and most businesses need code that's far from perfect.

Find out the source of your perfectionism and work against it. Try writing some MVPs -- give yourself a week to build something and pretend you have to ship it on the last day.

You can also scratch the perfectionism itch while improving your speed at the same time. Good static typing helps immensely with this. Good hinting/linting/debugging will also help with both.
There is something to that. I agree with a lot of what Glenn Greenwald writes, but I rarely read him because he can get so repetitive.

> Secondly, I've found left-leaning sites that do more factual digging (at least it seems that way) and will cover and attempt to disprove some of the opposing arguments. (Both sides have vapid overly dramatic coverage offered by many sources - I'm referring to the better sources on both sides). The closest I've found on the right is the National Review. I'm all ears if someone has better suggestions, but as it is I tend to read more within my "echo chamber" because it's actually the best source of nuanced information I've found so far.

I think the American Conservative can be good, especially Daniel Larison. But then again, they also run pieces with bizarre claims like "Uber is an example of distributism."
Cognitive bias pretty much sums up the whole of the tech industry these days. Educated fools who never apparently strayed from the tech courses to ever consider philosophy, history, or even a foreign language. But they sure do know what's best for us.
It isn't just that people aren't taught thinking skills, it's that people are actively attacked and coerced into suppressing that kind of thinking style. Going through normal public schooling systems most people are taught during key developmental phases that questioning the world around you causes punishment. If it isn't your parents, it's your teachers or the government constantly shoving stupid thought-suppressing ideas in your head. During these phases your immune system learns to associate free thinking with abuse and pain. When you are an adult it becomes very difficult to undo this. An adult who gets very emotional when their beliefs are questioned likely got abuse and punishment when they questioned the beliefs of those around them in youth.
Thank you for pointing this out.

In particular ZFS has normalization-preserving/normalization-insensitive behavior, which is far superior to HFS+'s opinionated normalization-on-create (to a form that is different from the common input modes' output!).
It seems clear they should've redacted the printer microdots - they're a known concern. It sounds like their source was caught in other ways, but that's not an excuse.
The tone of the discourse here irks me. A small story about my late grandmother that continues to inspire me -

My grandmother had gone through the pain of seeing my grandfather all bruised up from non-violent protests against the British. When my father studied ethnomusicology in the US, he used to have many of his musician friends, some of whom were his students, over at home during his visits. Initially, to my grandmother, they were "white people" and she'd give them the cold treatment. Over time, she warmed up to them and even made good friends of many of them, despite hardly knowing any English. She would make yummies for them to express her affection.

That someone who's seen her husband come back home bruised can rise to forgiveness and move to love and friendship is something that will stay with me forever.

That is the only force that can heal the world. Not retaliation. Not counter hatred. Not "proper historical perspective". Not any analysis of which violence is worse, or who started it.
One thought is that it would extremely useful to be able to interact over SMS: log events, contacts, receive reminders etc.

Ask HN: AWS S3 media player?
A few years ago I put my music collection up on the "cloud". S3 to be exact for safety. I also grew up in an era where I collected CDs and then MP3's etc so I'm still confused by all these music services.

With that said, I started working in a office as opposed to remote. Although I like NPR, I do need a break every once in a while. Pandora and Spotify are blocked here.

I did run across this player the other day https://github.com/IrosTheBeggar/mStream which I thought was pretty neat, until I figured out only runs on the local machine.

So I was wonder if anybody knew a simple S3 no frills music player? With out encoding, or flash players etc...

If not, I'm thinking I can make my make a quick web page that references the S3 bucket that spits out random mp3s from my library behind htaccess wall for myself.

(This would only be for personal use, no intention of getting the RIAA involved.)
Ignore all that workplace bs, just apply to work somewhere and prove yourself to them by example or previous work. Forget about everything else about how you work slow. On the job training is the best kind of training, you will learn what is required to do the job, and time management will be a part of that training.
You might be interested in _friends(1)_ which is a cli implementation of something similar :)

I really liked how it showed you simple stats on your interactions and did some clever text analysis so you could make entries as regular sentences.

Are you saying that, having read the article, you think the answer is no? If so, having read the article, would you trust The Intercept to deal with a hypothetical leak by yourself?

Or are you saying "I didn't read the article, but the answer is usually no"?
Ha! I don't know if you've ever seen Ocean's 13, but there's a line in that movie that cracks me up along the same "high brow" analysis lines.

> Matt Damon - "Do you have any wine back there?

> Lady - "Château d'Yquem?"

> Matt Damon - "As long as it's not '73..."

Just makes me chuckle every time because he's a con artist in such a broad field almost nobody can actually identify all of the good and bad varieties from any given year. By just giving an obscure reference you somehow sound like you know what you're talking about...knowing that nobody else actually knows enough about what they are talking about to call you on it.

Just struck me as a great bit of "high brow crowd" humor.

My uncle died suddenly this year. He was unbelievably caring - and not just to family - but to everyone he ever met. His funeral was jam packed with everyone from homeless people to executives of multi-billion dollar companies.

I always thought that his ability to always have you, and whatever you had last talked about with him, on his mind at any moment was some kind of supernatural gift. I was surprised to find out at his funeral that he actually kept an excel spreadsheet of everyone he met and what they needed and were going through. He reviewed this constantly.

It didn't lessen his genuine love for everyone, just let him be a little more super human.

The weather is horrible, IMO. You only have two seasons, and it hardly ever rains.
You do not have to distribute the compressor gasses- you just pump cold water/glycol around. Every factory everywhere does it this way for distributed cooling, as well as hospitals/colleges/corp campuses with central plants.

For a long while, Stanford had an underground reservoir of ice for even better cooling (freeze ice at night when electrical prices are low, melt off during the day) http://web.stanford.edu/dept/news/news/1999/april21/iceplant...

The intro article answers many of these questions (and more): https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/an-introduc...

> How many firewalls can a single user create, and how many rules can be in each firewall?

100 firewalls, 50 rules per firewall

> How is the order of multiple firewalls applied to the same droplet determined?

The rules are all added together and applied at the same priority. Order doesn't matter.

> Where is there logging to show when a rule matched?

No logging is available.

> Is there any future plan to support REJECTing packets rather than only DROPing?

No plans for this.

> Will the user interface warn the user when they are about to block all traffic (including ssh) to a droplet?

There are no footgun warnings, no.

Let me know if you have more questions... thanks!
"The Shore" goes a lot farther north than that. The New Jersey Coast Line runs regular trains from NYC to Long Branch, and has a few trains that go as far as Bay Head (though you need to transfer to get to NYC).
Men of color don't get a pass on sexism, but that particular screening tool isn't effective because of the racism many of them face. The cost to them of publicly supporting marginalized people is higher, whereas it doesn't have any cost professionally for white men (citation from the Harvard Business Review: https://hbr.org/2016/03/women-and-minorities-are-penalized-f...) Thus, if white men don't do it, it's a pretty good signal, whereas if men of color don't do it, it doesn't tell me anything.

No. Signal identities are connected to phone numbers (which is fine for most people, but not fine for the very people who actually need end-to-end encryption) and Signal is not fully open-source like GPG is.
