Kerberos is mutual authentication with a bootstrapping overhead on the client side (you need keys, and distributing them can be challenging) and makes heavy use of accurate time. It doesn't adapt well to that sort of use case, and works better with an IT department backing it up. The protocol itself is just fine over an untrusted network -- that's what it was built for -- but that's not the usage you see. The SSO aspect of Kerberos is very nice, but OAuth and others push more toward "federated identity," a slightly different take on the same thing.

Even beyond that, it's heavy. Arguably, that OAuth stuff is a bit lighter. That's more a taste thing. Kerberos, when executed well (see Google pre-BeyondCorp/etc), is awesome.
Just a nitpick, but yours was not an aquaponic system as it apparently was not integrated with growing fish with the plants.

A modular system like in the article could be extended to be aquaponic. If so, they could take advantage of waste food from the host retail store / restaurant as input to the fish. Such a system might do well in China where shoppers are accustomed to selecting live fish.

> It's easier to throttle people if you have to use an account to access the information.

That's not true in the slightest. I can create as many accounts as I can have email addresses, and I can have as many email addresses as I want.

Robust throttling _requires_ an alternative throttling mechanism that works independent of account information, otherwise I can round-robin between accounts to bypass all throttling.

If you're gonna have that anyway, we're back to "no technical need for accounts".

>>A transom should never overwhelm the door or window [...]

>... that's it. No explanation [...]

The explanation is ~'it shouldn't overwhelm it'. Of course that's a value judgement. Like saying the front bumper (aka "fender") shouldn't be too big on a car; or a persons hat shouldn't be too big for their hat (tell that to JK, https://goo.gl/images/ztdusQ).

The implicit point is that the transom is ostentatiously large, enlarged beyond the reviewer's sense of propriety.

Surely there is nothing else. It's a judgement of style?

In my limited experience selling things, sales are all about emotion. Yes, there are a few actual deal-breakers, but things like a willingness to learn new things or adjust their workflow or deal with a mildly suboptimal workaround depend entirely on emotion. And the same suboptimality or problem in the hands of a person who wants a deal to work vs someone who doesn't swings in two different directions entirely based on the potential customer's emotions.

Unnecessary duplicate "artwork" has always been a problem for digital mediums.

Example from the dark ages: naive (or lazy) CAD drafters would often draw overlapping lines, which then caused the pen plotter to draw that many strokes on the mylar, which would then have too much ink, botching the output. Enough of a problem that 3rd party tools popped up to dedupe plot files.

Opera was onto something with server side rendering for their mini browser. They should sell that as a service.

In fact, someone needs to take it even further:

Render to some page description language (maybe PDF), and then automagically rehydrate into minimal, inferred HTML+CSS+images. Kinda like how tabula and others scrape PDFs to reconstitute tabular information.

One benefit is throwing away all the box model layout cruft. True WYSIWYG.

Another, even bigger, benefit is sanitizing content, like removing web bug tracking images.

"Almost no one actually thinks obesity is normal. a very small set of people argue it's healthy, but that is a tiny minority."

Tiny? Lol

Jokes aside, I see it differently. Much.

First, look around. Obesity is normalized. Those less so, look around and think "I'm okay...Look at that guy/gal..." We (speaking for the USA) got here because humans do what they do. In this case, they define norm by what they see.

I'm not concerned about those who argue it's healty. My concern is those who do not. Think of the current politics and healthcare. NO ONE brings up the fact that if we prevented what we could prevent, there'd be money for real illness.

As it is, we have fat people eating donuts, drinking milk by the gallon, and complaining about their premiums. That would be funny, if it wasn't so absurd.
Can't say either way, but after spending a few minutes Googling S/MIME support, it seems completely incompatible with most web browsers and web email services. The only exception appears to be Office 365 with Internet Explorer on Windows? While end-to-end encryption of emails is nice, I'm not sure the benefits outweigh the drawbacks, unless required by regulation. It'd be nice if more webmail providers and browser makers supported S/MIME, especially considering new privacy rules in the EU...

I disagree.

The new lock screen/notification center combo is an abomination. I have an iPhone 6S Plus and am considering downgrading to iOS10 or jailbreaking solely because of the notification center fubar.

For the longest time, and made better in iOS10 - our primary mode of unfolding UI was directional. You swipe up and you get the control center. Swipe down to see your notifications.

Now we have this half brained implementation where direction is now secondary to virtual anchors. Swipe up to see your lock screen and last few notifications. Then swipe up to see older notifications. But don't swipe up from too far down or else you get your control center.

This is ironic given how terrible the iOS10 control center was with it's multi-direction paginating views. They appeared to learn their lesson and fixed the usability issue in their latest major revision. But here we are again, and it's terrible.
That's surprising that IKEA partnered with Apple. IKEA's concept is, to quote them, "providing a range of home furnishing products that are affordable to the many people, not just the few." while Apple is about premium end.

I fail to see how Apple's walled garden lock-in approach melds with the IKEA Concept.
Apple's offering is currently further reaching, but I won't be surprised, if in the coming years, most high end smartphones start shipping with tango-like hardware, especially if AR's appeals broadens. ARKit should certainly be a contributor to that.
Right, and you can feel it, though I'm not sure if most people are aware of it.

This is a great high level guide but not so useful when it comes to setting up Kerberos.

Some of the typical issues are: 1. ensuring time synchronisation 2. dealing with the woeful error messages from Kerberos and AD. 3. configuring Firefox to do Kerberos auth. 4. tweaking Windows AD and Gpol/Registry to allow or disallow certain algo strengths. 5. ensuring names (host and principal and server) agree precisely (including case) between the ticket and the AD attributes and various config files.
6. dealing with bugs and other incompatibilities in Windows (e.g. ktpass) and Linux/Unix implementations. (thankfully mostly historical now). 7. firewalls (host and network)

I really should write up these in more details but in the meantime probably the best docs can be found on the official Kerberos site and within MS technet.
Kerberos assumes there's a out-of-band mechanism for bootstrapping and establishing trust with every participating server. More specifically: Every server needs to have a unique secret (symmetric) key, which needs to be known by the KDC. Distributing these symmetric keys is outside the scope of the Kerberos protocol, and often done manually.

If you're performing cross-domain authentication, there's also another level of interdomain keys needed to create referral tickets, which are also symmetric and need to be trusted.

This works well in an organizational setting, where everything in the known-world is centrally managed. It doesn't scale well to the entire Internet.

That's half of it, but doesn't account for the case when starttime[1] is later than endtime[2] and they don't intersect.
So you like houses that incorporate inefficient interior plans and incoherent external features that don't understand what they ape, don't ape it all that well, and don't create a cohesive whole with the house or environment around it--but do sport poor, cheap construction and expensive-means-good internal features designed around checking off boxes rather than achieving the goals those features are ordinarily designed for?

Math checks out to me.

Re: inflammation

I spent my younger days living in Las Vegas and adapted fairly quickly to the heat after moving there. However there was always three qualitative steps when it came to heat, when temperatures cross 100F (38C), when they cross 110F (43C), and when they cross 120F (49C).

Generally the temperatures stayed below 110 but it was pretty easy to know that the temperature was "over 100" or "under 100". Once the temperature got to 110 it started to feel oppressive. Out by Lake Mead where we would sail and play on the 'beaches'[1] when it occasionally crossed 120 it actually started feeling threatening. Even in the water I always felt "You must get out of this heat" when it was over 120. Sort of an existential threat to health and safety.

The interesting bit is the water carrying capacity of air when it is warmer. As global temperatures rise, the amount of water vapor in the atmosphere goes up. If that turns into clouds in the stratosphere it continues to get hotter, if it turns into clouds in the troposphere it gets colder.

More importantly, Redfin's data is actually current.

I'm trying to buy property. Back when I was using Zillow, I missed out on a couple because literally the day I found out about them was the closing day of offers. WTF? Redfin updates much faster. I still get emails from Zillow, often with listing changes that Redfin emailed me several weeks prior.

Oh, and don't get me started on Zillow's incredibly shitty data. Their job is to clean the data. A trivial effort would fix the endless 6,000-acre properties for $350k...
Funny.

But do note I did say "If..."
Experiences differ, I guess. I have twice looked for a job while I didn't have one, and I found it to be way, way less than a full-time activity. Updating my resume, posting it to a handful of job sites, monitoring a handful of job sites for new job postings, handling recruiter calls and screenings, just didn't take all that much time. It was maybe a couple of hours per day.
Or a pager.
This is close but you need to ensure the start time is before the other ends, and test for the second one starting before the first also. There's four cases:

[appointment 1 start] [1 end] <-- some time --> [appointment 2 start] [2 end] (case 1 - no overlap, appointment 1 first)

[appointment 1 start] [appointment 2 start] <-- some time --> [1 end] [2 end] (case 2 - overlap, appointment 1 first)

[appointment 2 start] [appointment 1 start] <-- some time --> [2 end] [1 end] (case 3 - overlap, appointment 2 first)

[appointment 2 start] [2 end] <-- some time --> [appointment 1 start] [1 end] (case 4 - no overlap, appointment 2 first)

So you need to do:

if (appointment1.end > appointment2.start AND appointment1.start < appointment2.end) OR (appointment2.end > appointment1.start AND appointment2.start < appointment1.end) // conflict

"We deeply appreciate the bravery of the women who have publicly come forward and disclosed their specific issues of sexual harassment. The behavior they experienced is not ok, has never been ok, and will simply not be tolerated by us in any way."

Really? "a [VC] partnership of six middle-aged white men" lauding female bravery. This would be so much more interesting if they acknowledged discrimination in the industry and held up their company as an example of that. America isn't 100% white middle-aged men now is it? I mean, how does that happen, I'm multiracial myself and the people I spitball company ideas with certainly aren't all male nor are they all the same ethnicity. The infantile, forceful, moralistic writing makes this all the worse.
It is sometimes hard to tell with these types of very slowly developing changes if there is actually a worsening or not situation happening. It's like watching grass grow in real time and trying to see if it's length is _really_ changing. Is it really getting worse or is it an enormous "good old days" fallacy? Mixture of the two? Scientific evidence of course points to a very grim future of more dry, hot, barren, inhospitable land area...

In the UK, my parents had snow every year where they lived. Now snow in the same area is getting extremely rare, happening only twice in large-ish amounts over the past 10 to 15 years (source: i lived there too for over 20 years). Over my (rather) short time on Earth, i swear that we never used to get so many heatwaves as a child.

It feels like we all collectively killing our children (or if not them, then their children), but nobody can do anything about it. The future of Earth's climate is one of those things that really gets people down it seems from a very anecdotal view of the people around me. The helplessness of it all.
> I don't believe there's actually any evidence for the claim that inflammation is the root issue for most disease.

There is growing evidence that it is in the chain of causality for lots of diseases where it has previously not been thought of, and that lots of inflammatory conditions seem to be linked manifestations of common systemic causes rather than localised inflammation with unrelated causes.

This does get overplayed sometimes into “everything starts with inflammation”.

>If she would likely lose in court [...] I don't see why you would feel sorry for someone in that situation.

A law's existence is not an automatic justification for its invocation. Copyright law is pretty draconian on its own, and automatically-accepted browsewrap/clickwrap Terms of Use generally constrict action even further, making almost anything a breach of contract. Fair use exists, but the standard is fairly high, and it is not really practical for a normal person to get it, especially since each use must be considered in isolation.

Other types of intellectual property would probably also be involved here, including an accusation of "trademark dilution", i.e., harming their mark's value by using it improperly. I haven't seen the C&D but it probably includes various other claims along these lines, all of which she would have to defend, which means big $$$ even if she did win (and if attorney's fees are eventually awarded, they will cover only a tiny fraction of the overall costs).

A large company with giant law firms seeking to punish individual authors for failure to unpublish unflattering blog posts should make you feel sorry, even if those giant law firms are able to contrive a case that shows the conduct was technically illegal. It's not hard to do, especially when there is such a massive resource differential.

In the real world where we're allowed to widen our perspective beyond the legal minutia, this is a blatant attempt to silence press that Zillow doesn't like. The fact that it is possible for big companies to do this to people should seriously frighten everyone.

>doing her a favor by sending a cease and desist instead of going straight to court

A C&D is part of the process. It's not mandatory, but my non-lawyer understanding is that it looks bad to file a suit in this type of case without first asking the defendant to cease and desist (that is, issuing a formal C&D).

Lawyers don't send a C&D to be nice. They do it because the court wants to see that the plaintiff a) sought non-legal remediation before filing a lawsuit and b) because plaintiffs have a responsibility to mitigate ongoing losses when they are able to do so.

The job of the lawyers is to maximize outcomes in favor of their clients, and that means crossing the ts and dotting the is. Failing to send a C&D leaves an opening for the defendant to try to soften your damage claim, pointing out that you did not attempt to mitigate the damage.

If Zillow actually had been damaged by this operation, they would continue the lawsuit after the would-be defendant ceased and desisted and try to recover the damages they suffered. Since this is just a tactic to pressure the other party into unpublishing their content via the legal strongarm, money won't be wasted on a lawsuit after the publisher has been bullied into submission.

IANAL
