For a game suggestion, I'll mention "Re-Volt Classic" [1]. It's a very high quality port of an old PC game. It runs beautifully on today's mobile devices, and the game is really well made IMO. Be careful not to get Re-Volt 2/3/etc., they're awful modern micro-transaction clones.

Funny how everyone loves to jump on the hate wagon against this game and company, even on HN - you get a clickbaity sketchy article from neogaf and suddenly everyone is a banking expert?

They already released a response, but it's kinda sad that they have to justify stuff like this to "journalists" all the time.

This kind of starry eyed delusional exaggeration is why btc/eth/ico, etc. are seen with suspicion in places like HN. Blockchains is an area of active research, they are nowhere near the most important thing in any amount of time, for now they are just promising, time will tell how far they get. But even the marriage of this promise to current early implementations like bitcoin/eth is pure lunacy. People are getting mad on get-rich-quick schemes and price speculation, not on the promise of the technology. At this point we should be starting over every 3 months and dropping and experimenting all over the place, not tying billions of dollars on early adopter versions and spending years in internal wars when the inevitable need for improvement and evolution happens.
Pretty straightforward - the pilot said he was relying on magic to save them all instead of doing it himself. That's pretty unprofessional. He should be focussed on doing the job.

He can be religious at home but he should not bring that up with the passengers any more than he should say "Hey everyone, we might crash, but my friend Steve, who isn't a pilot, and isn't here, will fix this!"
If that is really your definition, wouldn't public domain be the "most open source" license?
First off, the perspective is confusing. The camera is located on the right side of the rocket (I'm treating the zenith as "up" and the direction of flight as "forward"). So when it pulls to the left shortly after the engine shuts off, the vehicle is really pitching up while in a steep dive.

The goal of this maneuver to lengthen the descent path, which in the absence of an atmosphere would be a pure parabola (or more accurately, a suborbital ellipse). Passing through more air means shedding more velocity due to drag, and therefore less fuel is needed to land. Geometrically the best way to do that is to pitch "nose up."

You can install Nix in a totally unprivileged fashion, without having to use hacks such as PRoot, you just need to configure it to use a directory you have write access to instead of /nix. But doing so breaks the ability to use the official binary caches (because relocating the store requires recompiling packages), and this isn't particular to nix (I remember that portage at least does this too, and probably some others).
The interesting part is that with an installed deamon, the admin can allow users to install packages in their own profile, while still benefiting from sharing of dependencies and other niceties.

About the multiple versions, the problem with "classical" package managers is that you have to do some manual renaming to ensure that both versions won't be installed in the same place in the file-system, which is tedious and doesn't scale well. Furthermore you may encounter some problems because both will be visible at the same time if the packager isn't careful enough. For example, if a software X has a dependency of libfoo2.1 and you happen to have libfoo3.1 also installed, the installation script for X may use libfoo3.1 instead of libfoo2.1, in which case you risk to encounter bugs because X hasn't been tested against libfoo3.1.
Nice to see more interest in Forths and concatenative languages lately on HN. IMO they’re even more amenable to metaprogramming than Lisps, and there’s a lot of power in a compositional, interactive style of programming, especially for a low-level language with no safety nets. I definitely recommend playing around with a Forth (I like Gforth) or Factor, and trying to absorb some of the philosophy—it’s helped improve my program design in other languages.
Not wonderful against suicidal ideation.
fwiw, it's important to remember that there's a lot of diversity involved.

In my university, for example, the library pushes hard for movement toward open public standards. I've also seen junior faculty make efforts to publish in open journals. But then those junior faculty get slammed by [some] senior faculty for not publishing in higher profile journals and not having enough of an impact factor.

There's also a lot of legitimate grievances against open journals, due to the financial incentives that are created and the types of review processes that are encouraged by their policies.

So there's a chicken-and-egg factor and a lot of disagreement about what should be happening.

Personally, I think there should be a huge shift in publishing practices in academics, but it's going to take some time.
I wish I was in the hiring position so I could hire older people than me who have more wisdom so I could learn from them :)
What's also really irritating is the need to update every 2 weeks. I feel like my phone is wasting non-trivial battery and cycles because of shitty software development practices. Why does Facebook (Google, Uber et al are all guilty as well) update every 2 weeks? Your shitty development practices shouldn't be reducing the lifespan of my device.

I mean I thought the interview torture would have some effect on code quality, but jeez all I get is a battery hog that needs a new version every 2 weeks

It's not about having anchors, it's about not being affected by the top layer of water which moves up and down due to waves. If you submerge (your center of gravity) just a few meters under the surface, you'll suddenly be much more stable and much less affected by the waves. Oil rigs, just like ice bergs, have a large part that is submerged and invisible on the surface. Look at this for example: https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/73/64/d6/7364d6da3...
This is not a net neutrality issue but walled garden/integration one.

Given the current climate, with a foreign actor attempting to subvert our democracy, I'm more inclined to support other more obvious victims of NSA spying than Wikimedia.

This seems loosely held together - that said I do trust that our justice system will investigate it properly.

Given the climate, my feeling is anyone attempting to say our justice system is awful, or that the NSA doesn't provide any security, are witting or unwitting supporters of a foreign adversary. Unless, of course, Russia succeeds; then it's all kosher and the history books will be written as such.

If you think our justice system is terrible then please point to a country that does it better. Note I'm not talking about laws- rather, the judiciary itself.

When the authority figure resorts to praying and asking you to pray to help them out of a tight spot, it's implicitly implying that they've lost control of the situation and there's no backup.

This is absolutely horrible from a control perspective. As the person who knows most about the operation of the airplane, it's your job to curb panic in the passengers and project a calm confident air.

The passengers are pretty much relying on your hands and your abilities as a pilot, and they have no opportunities to solve any problems. When you ask them to pray, you're basically throwing in the towel and pretty much saying you have no control over the situation, causing them to freak out and not adding anything to the situation. You need to project calm competence at this point, reassuring all the passengers that everything is under control and that everything is going to be fine.

This has nothing to do with religious beliefs and everything to do with command. Something that you might want to consider. It's as if in a combat situation your commanding officer asked you to pray for the safety of the platoon - panic is infectious.

I enjoy how you conflated religious freedom with maintaining order and discipline though. I guess we all read what we want to read into the situation.

I've always found it weird that de Raadt is admired for being abrasive, and Torvalds is pilloried.

How are the Linux Foundation's funds allocated, and how much say does Linus have in it ? Most of this boils down to lack of money and attribution for grsec. Why didn't the Linux Foundation or Linus try to officially fund grsec to upstream their patches ? KSPP is still costing money. How much would it have cost to pay grsec directly instead ?
You mean, `apt-get install gitlab`? Yeah, I think I can live with that :)
I believe the proper term is "brick sthouse".

A few years back a group of engineers decided to prove this by attaching a number of solid fuel rocket engines to a port-a-potty and launched it to great applause.
Some of them are just like swiping your card - e.g. they just pass the same data as a swipe in one pass and go.

The other kind, AIUI, are indeed the same as the chip transactions, with all that entails.

e: Other posts seem to say that all the contactless transactions are offline, which means no multiple expensive round trips upstream either way, so nevermind.
Your story is practically the precise opposite of mine. Of course, my parents didn't have the money for an Apple ][. A TRS-80 Color Computer at $400 was a non-trivial purchase for a high-school teacher in rural Western Pennsylvania.

Businesswise, unfortunately, the founder Radio Shack died right before the computer revolution kicked in. Then, Radio Shack had a couple of embezzlement problems right at critical points so they missed the computer revolution and then missed the internet revolution.

And even THAT would have been recoverable had they decided to be "mom and pop" tech support in less urban areas (it took forever for Circuit City and Best Buy to enter certain areas).

Personally I think this is a fantastic question and one I'm very interested in seeing what more experienced developers and managers have to say.

The more I manage people (especially developers) the more I'm drawn to the adage of 'a metric that becomes a target ceases to be a useful metric' but at the same time many companies put great stock in trying to develop measurable KPIs - something that I've greatly struggled with through several roles as a development manager.

If I was going to land on anything currently it would probably be something like 'Features released within a iteratively improved estimated timeframe'. In other words a metric that focused on an improvement between now the and last time the measurement was made but not towards a specific target. Also a metric that made people realise that the focus is more around them working as a team and even across multiple teams to achieve a goal.
For founders who are fundraising, it's even more extreme.

After reading the entire exchange between Torvalds and Spengler I must say Torvalds was thoroughly trounced. It was like watching a child argue with an adult. Spengler provided facts, justification, reasoning and proof while Torvalds acted like a child and called him names and his work garbage. If you're going to call someone out then at least have the decency to properly address their reply instead of completely ignoring what they said and just saying what you want to say.

AI publishing is virtually all on Arxiv. Conferences replace the role of journals (for example getting a paper accepted at NIPS, ICLR, ICML, etc). And I find out about important papers on Arxiv Sanity or even Twitter.
Communicating panic and lack of control to your passengers is never safe. You will be absolutely honest and clear with ATC and any escorts/emergency vehicles regarding your current status, but you cannot ever let that bleed into your communications with the passengers.

In all communication with passengers, you need to be about as calm as if you're just taking a walk in the park. "Folks, we're making an unexpected detour to check out some technical issues that came up. We might be delayed a few hours, but the ground crew will book you on the next flight available, and work with you on rescheduling your transfers."
Check out the 0BSD license: https://spdx.org/licenses/0BSD.html

It's even more permissive. It doesn't require preserving copyright notices and including a copy of the license with source code forms, like the boost license does.

I'm not a lawyer, but the license uses the same text as the ISC license, but with the text imposing restrictions removed. So I think it should be as legally valid as the ISC license (again, I'm not a lawyer).

The problem with the boost license is it's pretty specific on "works are solely in the form of machine-executable object code generated by a source language processor." being allowed to be redistributed without including a license, so if I was making an interpreted language, or something that would embed it's own source code in the users code (eg a template library or something), then I don't think the boost license would allow them to redistribute that derived work, whereas 0BSD would.

The license is listed on OSI's page as the "Free Public License" for some reason https://opensource.org/licenses/FPL-1.0.0 , but the text is essentially the same.

Here's the whole 0BSD license text:

Scientific output is often misrepresented by the media and misinterpreted by large portions of the public. This contributes a lot to the issue you've outlined.

Another problem is that even if all the research in the world were freely available, only a small portion of the population would still seek it out.
The latest release is a 70-80MB download (depending on archive type). Where are you getting 300MB from? The uncompressed size?
Hardware usually scales at line rate without any issue, something Linux cannot.

From a pure latency point of view, a medium-range router (using the latest Broadcom Tomahawk chipset) takes around 500ns to route a packet (note that such a chipset cannot handle a full view). It doesn't seem unlikely that Linux can do the same job in certain configuration in about 100ns (notably, no netfilter rules). However, this takes a whole core to do that. If you have 24 of them, you get 12Gbps of transfer rate. With an hardware platform, packets are pipelined, so with some relatively small buffers, you can still achieve several hundreds of Gbps of traffic (per chip), something Linux cannot do in software.

I can't say about TCAM performance alone. Are there super fast or are there able to perform parallel lookup?

For better or worse, tenure evaluations are a crazy important part of academic life in the US. You have roughly five years to produce enough research of a high enough quality to earn the right to keep doing said research.

The three common metrics for evaluating are:

1. citations -- highly cited papers are evidence of contributing to academic society

2. impact factor -- papers published in highly selective journals that peer reviews submissions are considered better

3. money -- AFAIK nobody says this out loud, but if your department can't bring in revenue to support you and your researchers, your tenure case is on thin ice.
