The question is if "1=2" is really an equation?

Wikipedia says "an equation is a statement of an equality containing one or more variables", but your example lacks a variable.

How about "-1=x²"? If x can be a complex number a solution is "x=i", but what if we only use real numbers? Wikipedia says "There are two kinds of equations: identity equations and conditional equations. An identity equation is true for all values of the variable. A conditional equation is true for only particular values of the variables." Does that imply that without a solution "1=x²" is not actually an equation? The two parts are not equal after all.

> The upshot is don't expect to beat these anytime soon. There's just too many bits to hide in, and so few bits needed for the identification.

I agree. Some of the off the top of my head ideas that I literally just came up with now:

- if printing an image, drop a few dots in some rows (or columns); data is hidden in the pattern of dropped dots

- if printing text (as in, actual text goes to be rendered on the driver or printer firmware level, and not by the OS / text editor), slightly alter the shape of some letters (by adding or dropping a dot) to hide a pattern

- if printing an image, try to hide some data in its FFT (e.g. by adjusting differences between low frequencies and hiding a pattern there)

- if recording a video, slightly alter some otherwise stable global characteristic (like avg brightness of a bunch of consecutive frames in an animated movie)

- if recording a video, screw with timing patterns, as you mentioned

There are just so many properties, that the difficulty is probably mostly in picking something that's stable through usual transformations a document will undergo (e.g. scanning, JPG compression).
>while the children in the countryside were always playing in the mud, snow, trees, and so on, getting dirty, tired, and scraped.

Now. Expect someone to show up with some statistics of how accident rate in the country side is greater than the rate in the city, along with other folks with supporting argument like. "A weak kid is better than a dead kid", "Mental handicap is better than physical handicap", which are obviously not false!

All the evils of modern life can be summarized in a single word..."Fear".

The next breakthrough for humanity would have to be freeing the masses from being perpetually afraid! Might be a bit hard since the fear this fear can be capitalized for massive gains by the current establishments !

/dev/urandom is a perfectly good source for random numbers. Because it's fed from the kernel which is gathering all kinds of entropy, including mouse movement interrupt timings. Bad implementations not considered.

One problem with /dev/urandom is you always have to open it, create a filedescriptor just to get to some random number!?
Good point, except that in this example, you don't understand the scale better (since all the people and spaceships fit on a table). I believe (for this example) an immersive experience, with VR goggles would be much better.

That makes no sense.

The kernel routing table of your PC should remove the link once the PHY has been detected to be down. That's even if your PC supports multipathing.

We don't rely on layer 3 to communicate a link is down to us - we rely on layer 1.
A conspiracy theory typically involves a pretty large group of people doing something big to deceive a massive group of people.

Like a faked moon landing, a large false flag operation like 9/11, or a hillary clinton/democratic party death squad murdering leakers.

Has anything like this ever happened in all of history? The whole snowden thing is the best example I can think of but I don't remember actually being surprised when that came out. Maybe if hitler burned down the reichstag? I don't think that was ever proved though and I'm not sure how many people would really need to be involved in something like that.

Yes, HFS+ implements normalization-insensitive behavior through not being normalization-preserving, in the same way that some FATs might implement case-insensitive behavior through not being case-preserving. They didn't realize that you could have both features: normalization-preserving and normalization-insensitive.
Well, modern printers print with 100s of ppi, which on doing some maths suggest around 100 dot in a box of side 1 mm(in 250 ppi, most printers print with more ppi), enough for displaying 64 bit number with hash, even if it only works in binary mode. If more that just on/off can be detected, it can store much more.
A customer asked us to integrate their website with our mobile application. They had no IT department to do the integration, and they didn't want to open their database to the web, so I came up with this solution;

ssh into the machine, select using a db commandline tool, return data back from stdout in csv format, parse data at our side. It's surprisingly fast and secure.

1. "Dormfart-website CEOs" are not necessarily what's required to scale education.

At the day-care my 3 year old goes to, the children are encouraged to go out and play on a daily basis. The only exceptions are storms and extremely hot days (this does not happen that often in this part of Germany...). This is great for them. They play, explore, breathe fresh air, interact with germs, bacteria.

On the other hand, I'm also sympathetic to the parents who try to shelter their kids, so that they don't get sick. Staying at home these days is not as simple as when we were kids. The pressure to succeed or lack of personnel take their toll in such situations.

It's not clear what you're responding to.

Lead lowers IQ (and has other negative impacts). Fetal alchohol syndrome lowers IQ (and has other negative impacts). Adding Iodine to salt apparently raised average IQ by 15 points in areas where the natural diet was low in it.

Many things are apparently very inheritable, like height, yet in certain generations almost everyone is taller than their parents due to environmental factors. This isn't exactly rocket science.

My point was that in history, the people accused of being genetically inferior (the jews, the irish, the italians, native americans, africans, chinese etc.) have generally been outgroups that have been unfairly targeted by pseudo-science, not that IQ does not have a hereditary component.
Not all kids I went to school with is alive, for example there was one guy who one day went fast down a hill on his bicycle, straight onto the road and was hit by a car.

One guy I know let his four year old play outside, just for a short while without supervision, he fell into a pond and drowned.

I always felt safe when I was five years old playing outside by myself though, even though I sometimes went several kilometers into the forest. There was no cars there and I was already a good swimmer, so I can't really imagine anything could have happened though.

How to weave empathy into everything you do as a designer
Years ago I decided I didn't like the idea of just emitting data online. I mean with personal stuff, who I know, what I do, where I am going. I just felt the only thing coming out of that is that it will be used against me later. I still cannot see a single positive from allowing outsiders to know so much abut my life.

I don't have a phone and stuff like that. I like a quiet life and am content with the handful of people I know well. I wonder though, at what point (if ever) will I be left behind by society? Or if there will always be options for me.

Like a day where, you go to jail for not having a smart meter installed. Or, you must access Terminals in an Airport via the Government App on your device. I am worried about such things.

Based on my life experience it is absolutely true that average people work much less if not in an office or other organized workplace. Many times even by their own accounts.
This does not mean that there is a minority that can work wherever, or that work even better at home. It all depends on their interest, on the job etc.
But yes, offices provide a lot of productivity boosts.

Surely we can skip the paper stage and hookup the motors used for head positioning control to a rig - either reading through rotary measure or preferably reading the signal to the motors directly.

Print the same page, compare the signals sent to the motors? Won't that be a more easily/accurately measure proxy for what's actually being printed. One might need the timing data for the jets on an inkjet too, etc.

How would the ToS apply to me if I never read them? If I write a script that downloads a page then I just downloaded it, never viewed it.

If you put something on a http endpoint then I can download it. The terms of use of the material just regulates what I can do with it (republish it) but I can't possibly be forbidden to download it.

Anyone with a web server is of course free to just block my attempt to download their page, via a user-agent filer or any other method.

Edit: IANAL so I have zero idea how law is actually applied around the world. My view is just that "how on earth would it be possible to enforce a contract I never saw?".

My view of course also says that I'm free to download the data at

http://secret.somecompany.com:8081/secrets/data.bin

Because they exposed it at a public http endpoint. I'm not so sure everyone (including somecompany) would agree with that. I think it's still perfectly reasonable that I'm allowed to do that - and that the restrictions that may apply to material I reach that way is only related to how I use it. Them posting it publicly on the internet (even if it's not linked) is the same as them having it on a billboard. I very much doubt that's how law works though.

Economic Inequality Is Worse Than We Think (2015)
I see where you're coming from but I think there's also a lot of unacknowledged variables in play here that get glossed over because of a focus on the outcomes such as dead kid vs. live kid. For example, I'm wondering if the same rules and recreation structure that result in a dead city kid result in a dead rural kid. A lot of environmental factors including traffic, neighborhood crime, average physique (in areas where children might often participate in their parent's physical labor), etc. could all create outcomes that are generally more potentially lethal for a child raised in a densely populated metropolitan area than for a child raised in a rural area.

Apple occasionally release upgrades which the hardware really isn't capable of supporting. I think the worst example was the iPhone 4, which was given the iOS 7 upgrade. iOS 7 was basically only suitable for multi-core capable devices, and the iPhone 4 was the only device it was released on (the same generation iPod and iPad didn't get the update).

I think the big thing people forget when they automate systems is that they make them too strict. As in you're always expected to fit within the parameters and pattern of behaviour that the system was built with. It tolerates no deviation.

However as with all human things, it is better and less trouble to be able to take shortcuts rather than have to stick to the rules 100%. For example people crossing the road in the middle of the night with not a car in sight. People reversing down the road a little bit to turn or get a parking spot. Being able to cross the centre green patch on a high way at night because there won't be a u-turn available for many kms. The issues with identical twins and not being able to get IDs (basically the inability to override a system).

These sort of issues help remove stress and simplify things in our daily lives, and help make the world function.

Having never heard of TlScript, I was curious why it would be worth using, because the blurb sounds a lot like ES6/7:

" () TIScript is the scripting engine used by Sandcat for some of its user interface operations. TIScript uses JavaScript as a base with some Python features added: classes and namespaces, properties, decorators, etc. See a JavaScript, Dart/Chrome and TIScript/Sciter comparison here "

I too would dearly love FreeCAD to succeed because the FOSS world dearly needs at least semi-decent parametric MCAD.

My view is that the UI and UNDO problems that you report are likely more tractable than the deeper problems with OCE.

My first encounter with CASCADE was before it was Open in 1993 and Maura was still trying to sell it. I was a consultant at the time, and the client at the time was initially sold on it by the Matra salesman. At the end, though when CASCADE utterly failed to perform he had a screaming row with the Maura consultant.

CASCADE was refactored from Euclid which was the loser MCAD system of the time because it didn't really support curved surfaces properly.

Then Dassault purchased Matra, presumably for the Euclid client base who they swiftly moved onto CATIA, and they saw no value in the CASCADE technology so OCE was born.
I've started to work as a software developer when I was 16. My first job was a small programming job as a casual employee (20h/month) for a research institution (publicly funded) - it was for minimum wage and I hated it.

After 4-5 months, I've decided to become a freelancer and searched for contract work. I've never used Fiverr or other platforms and I'm convinced that neither should you, because this work will only lead you down the wage path where no one really values what you do.

Try to find small local software companies in the range 1-30 employees, go to local meet-ups for software developers (or even organize your own ones) and get to know those people who can give you a job. I'm currently 19yo and I'm meeting executives at my local chamber of commerce. It's not that hard. But first, you have to lose the attitude described in this sentence:

> software companies are not willing to hire people my age for good reason

This is simply not true. Maybe there are some, but not all. I've get paid the same amount of money as other freelance senior developers. They don't care about my age. They just care that

- I can what I say

- I can do what they need (I'm doing web applications & app development)

- I do it professionally and communicate properly

Just go out, drink coffee with other software developers, tell them that you would love to have a meeting with their executives and you're ready to go.

Be confident in your skills (but never ever make the mistake of overestimating yourself), be calm, show your expertise and that you can and will do the job.

Connect with people, this is the most important part for freelancing work - every time you go out and eat something, go with some project managers who happen to be there, too.

Maybe this sounds too easy to be true, but this is what I did. And I'm sure you can do it, too.
