Daily Mail and its ilk often write statements like "Twitter users were outraged after reports that Mr Celebrity X shoved a hamster up his arse". They don't say Mr Celebrity X actually did it, just that Twitter users were outraged over reports that he had done so. I'm sure there's a legal distinction in there that means they're still in the wrong, but I don't know how the consequences differ.
See the methods: as usual for visual fixattion experiments with monkeys, the subjects were trained to maintain fixation, fixation window being only a part of the image size:

stimulus size spanned 5.7 degrees. The fixation spot size was 0.2 degrees in diameter and the fixation window was a square with the diameter of 2.5 degrees.

2.5 is relatively large in my experience, might be due to lots of noise on the signal, but anyway there won't be true saccades (well, there shouldn't be, parts of recorded data wehere with saccades outside of that fixation window should get rejected). Probably microsaccades were present, but those aren't mentioned.

No evidence of that and in fact, one of my first payments was late as I was setting up auto-billing and there was nothing more than a letter in the mail reminding me.

I'm still baffled as to why/how they decide to run programs like this. Maybe it gets them information about when I contemplate selling the car (as I'd maybe have to ask the payoff amount)?

Seems like a very easy case to make given the available observations, and something that can be easily studied.

To me, if they couldn't know this much, it would be like a civil war historian that couldn't really tell who gave the Gettysburg address.
I've had to leave a rental residence twice now in under 30 days because the owner wanted to sell instead of renew a lease and didn't bother telling us until just about the legal limit. It sucks, it'd be much better to have 2 months, but as a person with some dignity I recognize I don't own the property and I'm no longer welcome after 30 days. Sure I could be an asshole and fight the eviction out in courts as they worried Jack could do (with some weird incomplete post-sell-date form with the original owners) but no. In the story he had 2 months already, according to the original owners, and to make things worse no rent was being collected. Struggling with life doesn't give you a free pass to be an asshole, we all have our struggles, so if you've had legal notice, which is designed to take away the threat of immediate homelessness by giving time to find a new place, GTFO.
this is true

You need self esteem from yourself and acceptance of yourself

but at the same time

it does not mean there is not benefit to continual positive self regard. I still stand that this term is fundamentally different than self esteem inflation that requires trophies and grade inflation and caccooning kids from consequences of their actions as the author writes.

As a power user, I hope this doesn't ship with ads and telemetry enabled. It's things like that that pushed me away from windows and towards Linux. If Microsoft had never participated in the NSA PRISM program I would have never decided to "just try this Linux thing out" and I'd probably still be a windows user.

I think at this point they'll have to do more than get rid of ads and telemetry to get me (and others) to switch back. Linux turned out to be much more stable than Windows for me, and after experiencing package management and sane update policies I can't go back to an OS that won't even let me use it while it's installing updates.

When I sit and try to make a list of reasons to use Windows it seems to come down to program compatibility and not operating system quality. Instead of trapping people on an OS because of vendor lock-in, try improving core parts of the OS to make it worth using.

They didn't view the house before bidding. They didn't get somebody else to view/appraise it for them. Their bid went from $480k to $560k in one step. They hired a cowboy without checking credentials, who went on to almost destroy the house. They hired a cowboy mortgage broker who reneged on a deal (or they're lying about it).

I really don't care how much money they have. Whether or not it's "privilege" or not. It is but that's not the point.

They were idiots. They deserved everything they got and —frankly— got off lightly.

Hi, let me tell you a thing about building in-process document databases, competing with the works from FB, Google and MS: the codebase of a document database is very small. The size of your team does not matter as much as the ideas they follow. Resin has been based solely on my ideas up to just recently when now PR's are starting to show up. Check it out.
Working Effectively with Legacy Code by Michael Feathers. It's a bit hard to wrap your brain around the Java and C++ examples unless you have experience with them, but the techniques are timeless. You may need to practice them extensively before you understand how important they are, though. In a recent book club we did at work, a common complaint was, "This just looks like common sense". Indeed it does... though the common sense is uncommonly hard to find when you are staring at the actual situations this book helps you with.

I've really enjoyed "Dependency Injection in .NET"- despite the name, the book itself is really 95% about Dependency Injection and relatively language agnostic. It exhibits a bottom-up approach to using inversion of control in a way that makes sense and is scalable.

Not a fair statement, as highly esteemed foreign teachers and professors also get bought by US colleges and universities. These top school would not be top without the capital they have.

Today's x86 CPUs usually contain some kind of microcode but it is distinct concept from uOPs (micro operations) that are usually referenced in high level micro architecture descriptions. Incoming instructions are decoded by some combination of hardware and microcode into uOPs that then get executed by RISC-like execution units.

Then there is slight terminological problem with the tendency of both Intel and AMD to label essentially any binary blob they don't feel like documenting as "microcode", ranging from few bytes of configuration data, through actual CPU microcode to complete RTOS images for some embedded CPU.
This is a special pen, and you just carry it around with you at Walmart? I shudder to think what would happen if you were to drop it -- that happens all the time, people drop pens and stuff, and they practically never get it back! See, this is the BIC Premier. It's a nice, classy pen, it writes smoothly with no clumps or leak -- and it's $14.95 for a box of ten, so you can just have a few in your pocket, in your bag, in your glove compartment, always a nice, good pen to hand, and you can leave your anniversary pen in the place of honour on your office desk where you can use it to sign the all-important contracts that befits a pen of that stature.

Easy-peasy.

What "power user" means today seems to be something different than before --- essentially, users who just use more of the features of the OS, in the way these companies want them to; notice that "more configurability/customisation" is not mentioned at all, whereas that would be what I expect as a "power user" (the old type) myself.
OP here. I didn't submit this because of politics, but because the validity of Google's search engine results is something that may concern the community. The takeaway here might be that until Google does something about this, you are being overtaken by the competitor with more recent updates, spread through a number of online properties. For instance: Hashicorp could try to improve traffic by moving all their product blogs to their respective domains. I'll add that despite Google's attention to Black hat SEO throughout the years, identifying these types of affiliations is an open problem, perhaps not that critical for a functioning search engine (until gaming starts to skew the results). So maybe that's somehing we'll have to take into consideration for years to come.

As far as DRM, isn't the usual spiel that when you have DRM you don't own the content you're buying? In the case of Netflix, you're explicitly not paying for content ownership, you are paying for access while you're subscribing.

I have no issues with DRM for subscription based services. For instance, I have no problem with Apple using DRM for Apple Music (subscription) and then selling music on iTunes as DRM free.

I will pay for DRMd movie rentals from Apple/Amazon but I would never pay to "own" a movie from either service.

A Pattern Language by by Christopher Alexander, Sara Ishikawa and Murray Silverstein. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Pattern_Language

From a blog post ( http://the-whiteboard.github.io/book/review/2016/02/17/five-... ) I wrote a bit ago...

---

The first thing that will come to mind when seeing that title is “ug, another book on patterns.” Or maybe “I thought it was named Design Patterns - Elements of Reusable Object-Oriented Software”

This isn’t anything like that book. Or maybe it should be. The full title of the book is A Pattern Language: Towns, Buildings, Construction. Yes, this is a book about architecture - but not software architecture. It is about the houses and buildings that we walk live and work in.

The description of A Pattern Language is one that will sound very familiar to people familiar with Design Patterns:

> It is shown [in The Timeless Way of Building], that towns and buildings will not become alive, unless they are made by all the people in society, and unless these people share a common pattern language, within which to make these buildings, and unless this common pattern language is alive itself.

> In this book we present one possible pattern language, of the kind called for in The Timeless Way. This language is extremely practical. It is a language that we have distilled from our own building and planning efforts over the last eight years. You can use it to work with your neighbors, to improve your town and neighborhood. You can use it to design a house for yourself, with your family; or to work with other people to design an office or a workshop or a public building like a school. And you can use it to guide you in the actual process of construction.

> The elements of this language are entities called patterns. Each pattern describes a problem which occurs over and over again in our environment, and then describes the core of the solution to that problem, in such a way that you can use this solution a million times over, without ever doing it the same way twice.
This is the book that inspired Gamma, Helm, Johnson and Vissides.

By reading A Pattern Language you will be able to understand what the authors of Design Patterns were trying to do and how design patterns were intended to work.

It’s a good book too, who knows what else you will find useful in it. Pattern #146 describes a flexible office space. Pattern #148 describes a workspace for small work groups, #151 is about small meeting rooms, #152 is a half private office. Everyone who works in today’s world of computers and cubes, can use these ideas to conceptualize and consider improvements to the office.

The fundamentals of sales are the same whether you're selling pens or $10m enterprise widgets -- you need to understand the customer and the product and how to fit the two together. It also applies in marketing, a closely related field -- you have to understand the needs of abstract groups of customers, and how pitch your product to those groups.

The pen is just a simple object to arrange a quick role play around.

It's saddening, yet unsurprising, that the whole discussion here on HN is around wealth and few people mentioned learning minor skills like time management and writing or partying and making friends.

In other countries, universities are/were usually seen as a way to cultivate your mind.

Quoting wikipedia on "culture":

The modern term "culture" is based on a term used by the Ancient Roman orator Cicero in his Tusculanae Disputationes, where he wrote of a cultivation of the soul or "cultura animi,"[2] using an agricultural metaphor for the development of a philosophical soul, understood teleologically as the highest possible ideal for human development.
Go simply isn't as flexible as Python. It's statically typed with no generics, so there is no "for loop vs map/filter/reduce" or "imperative vs functional" conversation to be had. This is categorically different than Python vs Perl, because Python's simplicity boasts were based on the discipline of the community as opposed to technical rails, as in Go's case.
My bad. I should have phrased it better.

What I meant is money is one commodity where even the super rich wants more, not less. Just because they have a lot of money doesn't mean they stop caring about it.
And base the rate off of the major. The lower your expected earnings, the higher your interest rate. Should help deter some stupidity.
> (which is also why i dislike the trend that iOS created with software being isolated both in terms of execution and file access, except a few preapproved holes here and there)

It seems to be the way consumer software is going though. It's a bizarre truism that we still aren't very good at sending files from one computer to another, even as we've got a lot better at specific cases like sharing photos or collaboratively editing documents. Maybe the lowest-common-denominator file model isn't good enough?

Who is "they"? The people who own the top slots of the news today aren't the ones who did 6 months ago. The sites I was running are making less than $20 a month, at their best they were making $500 a day (lasted all of one week during the primaries) and even then I make more at my day job. I'll never do it again because I have better options, but it was an education to see my bullshit stories picked up by top shelf news organizations.

How do you propose to stop people like me from taking over the news? Rely on someone like Murdoch to keep us safe from fake news? Have an official news network from the US government that only publishes verified news? One from Google? Facebook? Comcast?

Let the bullshit bubble and froth, it's sound and fury signifying nothing. Any cure I've ever herd put forward is worse than the disease.
I am learning lisp and was recommended to read "Paradigms of AI Programming" as the examples are all given in lisp.

A Privilege We Mustn't Ignore
I keep the (UK) National Statistic report of salaries.

* 22K is the median salary. The people under 22K get propped up by social security up to around that amount (theoretically, practically not)

* top-20% percentil starts at 38K

* top-13% is 45K (relevant in the UK as it is the limit for high tax bracket)

* top-10% is 50K

* top-5% is 70K

* top-2% is 110K

* top-1% is 160K

The average cost of a house is 250K, 400K in London. Only the smallest fraction of the population will be able to get that amount of money from just working. You need to be propped up by something, your parent, luck, post-code lottery on your first ring of the property ladder, ...

You need to borrow from the future and the past to afford the present.

Mechanisms exist - they just don't work.

For one thing, you can convert any false story into a not-provably-false story by appending 'a twitterstorm has erupted over' or 'a highly placed anonymous source has claimed'

You can also host false info with impunity by allowing user-submitted content, and ensuring users can recreate deleted content faster than you respond to complaints.

Another option is to run a story 'giving both sides of the controversy' but giving the false info 95% of the airtime.

Yet another is to simply not run stories on up-to-date facts you don't like, in favour of restating old-but-true stories that fit the narrative you prefer.

For another thing, even if a story is provably false, forcing someone unwilling to retract or pay damages can be extremely time-consuming. Court cases can go on for weeks and months; the stories about Clapper the article mentions have most of their impact while they're only a few hours old.

For another, thanks to the Streisand effect, if Joe sues Newsco over their false claim that X, he can look forward to several months of stories about "Joe sues Newsco over X claims"

I'm not sure there are any easy solutions here - ain't many people going to be coming out in support of making it easier for politicians to muzzle the press.

Does ReFS support native encryption like Apple's new filesystem does? What's keeping Microsoft from enabling encryption for all Windows users by default, other than nickle and diming them for it by forcing them to choose more expensive versions of Windows if they want full disk encryption?
