>> Everything you say applies just as well to all of Western Mediterranean Europe.

The language thing sure does. But the only time in ancient history Western Mediterranean Europe has been part of a single state was during the Roman period. the rest of the time they evolved separately and uniquely. In contrast each part of modern India has been politically linked to the other parts multiple times through history resulting in a common culture but with some obvious diversity. E.g. Indian festivals are largely common throughout the country, a marker of commonality stretching back through history.

>> That Columbus ill-advisedly thought of India as a monolithic entity is no marker of anything.

He said nothing about it being monolithic, just that there was a place called India, and it was worth a visit.

Your original comment was "there was no 'India' ...".

There has been an India through most of history. But of course the borders of the modern state were drawn relatively recently. These are two different things.
Ask HN: What do you think about the new App Store design coming on iOS 11?
I found the new App Store design, pretty hard in terms of discoverability of new apps. It looks like it's very hard to explore apps and also some design decisions look weird, like icons being partially visible on the right and having only one Editor's Choices full visible on the screen with the rest hidden on the right waiting for horizontal scroll...

This approach seems to limit a lot the non featured apps, so it will really limit the chances of Indie Apps, what do you think?
Also Apple Pay is always online authorized while contactless cards under a certain amount are often not authorized as a speed hack.
Samsung printer business was just sold to HP, so there goes that option.
I don't think even many of the IPv6 designers would agree with you. Originally, IPv6 was supposed to bring a large set of improvements, like first-class encryption, larger minimum packet sizes, stateless addressing and auto-configured routing. It wasn't just more bits.

In the end either all those things were backported to IPv4 or turned out to be bad ideas. IPv6 ended up being just more bits, but with a fully incompatible implementation.

If they had known this at the beginning, we could have transitioned to IPv6 long ago, by designing for a smooth transition period and reusing as much of the IPv4 stack as possible.

An end-to-end extension header would have been simple - something that can fallback to NAT connection tracking when it's not recognised. And it would have saved man-centuries of effort.

Stunning visual design is great, but it needs to be coupled to a good plot, a good movie, to get recognition.
Mobile platforms have gotten large enough that market share isn't necessarily a useful metric. There are many hundreds of millions of iOS devices out there. That's a pretty decent market to be addressing.
(It also happens to be almost all of the top end of the mobile market, so an iOS only offering has a TAM of hundreds of millions of people who are more likely to spend money. Not bad really :)

I'm not a climber, but I imagine that there could be two things going on here:

I've noticed a lot of people in the current generation wearing more formal clothes at work, I guess this is a cycle, and us 40ish year olds in T-shirts were doing the opposite of those who came before.

Honestly I find it weird to hear what seems like quite young guys on the train to work having a conversation about the best shoe polish.

Think carefully before upgrade. You can't downgrade after you upgraded and new upgrades are known to significantly slow down old devices. My iPhone 4S became unusable after iOS 7 and it's almost bricked with iOS 9. This is Apple way to force users to buy new phones.

That said, they force developers to discontinue support for old iOS versions, so if you don't upgrade, you'll stuck with old apps and some might stop work if they rely on remote servers with changed protocols. So if you want to use iPhones, be prepared to buy new phone every 3-4 years.
The story of the CIA's ongoing attempts to assassinate Castro reads like a slapstick comedy. Exploding cigars weren't even the silliest.
First of all, you stated the same thing twice in separate comments.

Secondly, I wasn't making an argument, I was describing how people at the time would think about claims like "the NSA records every conversation".

There are flaws in the argument (well, duh) but that's not even the point. The full extent of NSA surveillance was so absurdly unthinkable that people would go out of their way to rationalize anything as long as it was less preposterous than claiming the NSA literally taps, records and stores all Internet traffic.

* The NSA doesn't spy on people, that's absurd

* The NSA doesn't spy on people outside the US, that's absurd

* The NSA doesn't spy on innocent, law-abiding people, that's absurd

* The NSA doesn't spy on me, that's absurd

* The NSA doesn't spy on me as long as I don't act suspiciously, that's absurd

* The NSA doesn't spy on me all the time, that's absurd

* The NSA doesn't record everything I do, that's absurd

* The NSA doesn't store information it collects about me, that's absurd

* The NSA doesn't store all information it can collect about me, that's absurd

etc etc

Also, the way I recall it, at the time the conspiracy theory was (likely due to the popularity of the X-Files at the time) "the FBI is reading our IRC chatlogs", which is a far cry from "the NSA is rerouting all internet traffic", which is what we now know to be true. Not only does it seem less nefarious (law enforcement vs literally spies) but the scope was far more plausible (the network operators might cooperate with law enforcement).

Heck, even Guantanamo and drone strike assassinations seemed implausible back then.
Yeah. And a fact that may be one reason is that blaming a outboard supplier like github is easy, but blaming a colleague in company is more complex.
"Basically, we want more people who believe in what we say to be involved."

His official stance was that the people who got involved with the far right had legitimate concerns but latched on to a 'solution' that was bad for them (and us) and the left should have done a better job of co-opting them to their cause.

I don't know if you've talked to many among the far right but they're often pretty stupid so pretty amenable to being guided one way or the other depending upon who talks to them first.

> the last 64 bits are reserved for site-local routing.

No, the last 64 bits should never be involved in routing, /64 is the prefix length for a single ethernet segment. A site should by default have at least a /48.
Yeah, but if you have 10 or more friends your 'wall' gets littered with all kinds of useless information. Unless you unfollow and explicitly tell to not to show any of their likes and other random information.
It's worth mentioning though that there's often not a 100% feature parity between iOS versions on different devices, typically because of hardware changes. These even applies to devices of the same generation, e.g. iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus have different camera features since the latter has two cameras and the former just has one.

The differences between feature sets on different generations is less and less it seems though. If I recall correctly, the differences between the iPhone 3G and iPhone 4 was bigger than for instance iPhone 6 and iPhone 7. If I weren't such a sucker for new and shiny things, I'd probably buy an iPhone SE today.

CANBus is also used on spacecraft to communicate between payloads and the on-board computer. Sometimes it is used in concert with MilBus 1553 as the payloads and sensors are acquired from various sources.

I consider the Solar Cycle (including this book) possibly the best work of fiction ever, but it's quite heavy. I'm not sure I'll ever reread them, because I remember feeling a bit like I'm drowning in the story.

> Bleat about the ills of government all you want, but it won't reduce your complicity.

I'll reiterate;

It's a force of nature that cannot be stopped and denying it only causes more suffering.

You. You are complicit.

Get over your mastabatory self-righteousness, it's not as attractive as you think.
For tips on working with different filesystems, especially filesystems that have different approaches to normalization, see an article I wrote:

https://nodejs.org/en/docs/guides/working-with-different-fil...

The gist is that normalization should only ever be used for comparison (if needed, e.g. "do these two files have filenames that would look the same to user"), and never for changing data (filenames are user data and should be stored verbatim without normalization). HFS+ should never have used normalization in the first place. You can think of normalization as essentially a lossy hash function (you cannot get back to HFS+ NFD form once you normalize it to NFC - HFS+ NFD and NFD proper are not the same thing - many people don't realize this). Using normalization for anything other than temporary comparison leads to data loss.
You’re not going to get an 8 minute response anywhere but in the major city centres, which have armed units on 24/7 standby.

I'm not detracting from the real sexual harassment that occurred but looking for naughty people to fire is one of the first steps before redundancies.

On a message board I use there has been some interesting discussion [1] of whether elite climbers are being subject to pressure to take unreasonable risks due to the need to stay visible on social media, the commercial requirements of sponsors, and increasing interest in climbing by media orgs like Nat Geographic. I climb at a very modest level and don't feel qualified to judge in this case, and I certainly don't want to imply that Alex isn't making informed judgements about what he does, but I suspect these concerns may have some validity.

But an awesome achievement, nevertheless.

5 Steps to Add Remote Modals to Your Rails App
Buy an UI. I've been building digital stuff for twenty years. In the end, just buy an UI with the tech stack you're familiar with. Themeforest, CodeCanyon, whatever. Especially if it's a enterprise dashboard/admin tool. Just buy the most well built and most contributed to UI and master it so that you can re-deploy it over and over again. You've got more important things to do.
Completely agree -- however if it wasnt inconceivable it would be very cool for reasons other than the grandparents postulated satisfaction of defying death.
As many have pointed out: we already know the answer to that question. However, bringing down a founder if the paper trail doesn't lead back to them directly is extremely hard (and I'm only adding that qualification because of GitHub) so he's untouchable. And the culture undoubtedly reflects his desires. However, if senior people in HR know that _doing what the CEO wanted won't save them from being fired for cause_, it'll concentrate minds quite effectively.
So, taking this story at face value, I'd say the obvious: not his fault.

If your system is built in such a way that the production database can be nuked from the most junior developers command line, then that junior developer is definitely not at fault.

But this story just doesn't pass the smell test. I've worked in some sloppy, slipshod places and even in the worst of the worst dev shops there's no way this could have occurred.

Either this person found the most absolute, bush-league shop there is, or he or she or xhe is completely full of crap.
There is no such thing as public data that is private. If it is in the web for public consummation, the site has no right to forbid working with the data and re-using it elsewhere. There just is no means for them.

That does not say that one has the right to publish the exact same content. Then it becomes a copyright issue. But remixing it into another site, like yours? You have every right.

Note: That might depend where you live. Legislation might differ, US' fair use is a different concept than germanys public data concept, for example.

Your comment doesn't make sense. You can't choreograph the result of coin flip, but you can definitely rehearse a rock climbing sequence so that you always nail it.
