This means that it's captured under the GPL, and anyone can do as they like pursuant to the license (which grsecurity has attempted, repeatedly, to constrain in contravention of that license), and that this guy has an a-gen-da and something to sell you.

While people here are making an argument that this is fair use, it's not quite so simple. You have to pay money to argue in front of a judge, and unless no counter-argument is provided, summary judgement is far from an inevitability.
Why are you not more successful (in your technical career)? [video]
The simplest load balancing I've done is modulo the user ID by the number of servers then point at that server.

This solves caching too since you are only ever receiving and caching user data on a single server. No cache communication required. You can enforce it on the server side for security as well.

Doesn't require a load balance server - just an extra line of code.

Keep it simple.
If that would include not being ridiculed for having a flip phone, I would love it.
Thanks for the clear explanation, this makes total sense. Cheers.

Developers managing with dry eye
Hi, I'm wondering if anybody either is or knows a developer with dry eye. I'm a student with dry eye and I'm concerned about how my eyes will fare after years as a developer concentrating on a screen. Does anybody else have dry eye or know somebody with them who works as a developer? Will it be an issue?
I don't have any problem with someone building a huge, and subjectively "ugly" McMansion-style house if they want. What I have a problem with is where they usually locate these houses.

In many (not all, not most) cases, the builders locate the house in an area completely unsuited for the property. They'll find some low-cost home in an established neighborhood of 30-40 year-old ranch homes (for instance), then tear that house down (or maybe they'll buy two lots next to each other!), then build the monstrosity that towers over everything else in the neighborhood. They'll get variances and whatnot to build nearly up to every property line within fire-codes.

It becomes a nightmare for the rest of the property owners; usually their homes will decrease in value as a result, due to nobody wanting to purchase or live in their home with such a structure nearby. Of course, this may cause them to sell their property at a loss - perhaps to another developer who puts up another such McMansion...

There's such a thing, when you are building in an established neighborhood, to be a good neighbor and build something that fits in (both style and size) with the rest of the homes. Same if you modify the existing home; you don't want to go too crazy with style or structure, because this can devalue properties around you. It all comes down to whether you have any empathy for other people; whether you can place yourself in their shoes and say to yourself "if someone were doing this to a house near me, would it be a problem?"

Unfortunately, too many people that do this don't care, or can't empathise - or if they can, again - they don't care. They just want to build, and flip it for the cash. It's a grab, plain and simple. Rarely do the people who build these live in them, because that would put them at the ire of their (now ticked off) neighbors.

> if appointment1.end > appointment2.start OR appointment2.end > appointment1.start // conflict

This actually isn't correct. Consider the events (0, 3) and (4, 6). The end of the second (6) comes after the beginning of the first (0), but they don't conflict. You want `and`, not `or`.

EDIT: oops, just saw you edited it. Good catch :)

That would be the nail in the coffin for language change.

If creators dictate the terms of use for language we wouldn't have dialects or pidgin languages. The English language would not exist in itself given it's a melting pot of Anglo-Saxon, French, German, Greek, and a few other sources. We would still be speaking Old or Middle English.

Argentina has just issued a 100-year bond that was over-subscribed by a factor to 4-to-1 or so. That's a country that defaulted 5 times in the last century, if I'm not mistaken. Trillions of euro-denominated deposits stood at bellow 0% for more than a year. Real wages are continuously going down even though the unemployment figures are pretty damn good. These just off the top of my head writing on my phone.
I would argue that good design should never be confusing and prevent errors and guess work to begin with.
Elon Musk has said that to fight climate change, we need to implement emissions cap and trade globally. But it seems that solar and wind is an unstoppable force now even without internalizing the external costs of fossil fuels.

So is Elon Musk saying this just because it's convenient for him and Tesla? Or do we really need emissions penalties?
Android's at a huge disadvantage here. If it requires special hardware and a special version of the OS it's going to take half a decade to ripple through that ecosystem and take hold. Meanwhile Apple's preparing to ship it as standard in iOS 11.

If you are a developer, still which one is more appealing?

iOS ARKit requirements - any phone that runs iOS 11.

Android Tango requirements -

a) the latest Android OS -- judging by history a year out it will only get around 10% penetration (https://developer.android.com/about/dashboards/index.html)

b) a high end Android device - with the average selling price of an Android phone hovering around $220 (http://fortune.com/2016/02/15/apple-android-asps/), there aren't that many high end Android phones being sold.
Man, and what if the CTO is gay? Now you can't hire any men either!

That CFAA threat is absolutely disgusting. Seriously, what is wrong with Zillow that they think this response is even remotely okay? When you combine that threat with a response they gave the Verge, this is an absolutely chilling example of corporate malfeasance:

“Zillow has a legal obligation to honor the agreements we make with our listing providers about how photos can be used,” Zillow tells The Verge in a statement. “We are asking this blogger to take down the photos that are protected by copyright rules, but we did not demand she shut down her blog and hope she can find a way to continue her work.”

You hope she can continue her work....from a fucking jail cell?

> Why wouldn't a judge throw this out as spurious if it clearly falls under fair use?

If there is no colorable argument against fair use, then it would presumably be thrown out at summary judgment on a motion by the defendant.

But fair use analysis is rarely cut-and-dried, unless the fact pattern and context very closely mirrors something that has been previously litigated, and typically involves disputed questions of fact regarding impact, which would call for a trial.
In the same way that reciting Homer's Odyssey themselves after one hearing is infeasible, right?

The article also says, "If found to be valid, we will request an immediate termination of the harasser, regardless of job position."

Not as supportive of a second chance. Especially since this wording is part of the actual policy, not the soft sell leading up to it. I interpret it as: If I fuck up once, even if I recognize and own it, I will still be fired if the victim reports it.

This would seem to encourage silence and denial on the part of the accused, since owning up to it will be effectively a confession. And in such an environment, the power will reside almost entirely with the accusers, since I can't imagine the accused ever winning in a pure hearsay (i.e. no witnesses) investigation.
It's not only in places like that. Even in Los Angeles, some residents have the feeling that government workers are a kind of protected elite class, mostly insulated from the free market's demands for ever increasing productivity and efficiency, global competition, economic cycles and the high cost of health care and retirement.

See, for example: http://www.latimes.com/local/california/la-me-lopez-dwp-cont...

Silos are okay as long as they're managed appropriately. The purpose of breaking apart silos is to avoid risk to the company if a person leaves or is required elsewhere, not just to spread knowledge for its own sake.

Anything above 118°F is beyond the current design limits of some planes, so those planes are grounded. That's going to become a frequent event at the rate things are going. It's also scary hot.
It depends on the humidity. We had a 113F day with over 60% humidity once. No way in hell do I think anyone could get used to that. That was at almost 47 Lat vs 40 Lat for the most north of greece.

But I went to around death valley with minimal humidity and it was barely worth registering in comparison.
How are they going to compete with big pharma once it's all legal?

Or is the goal to get acquihired the same way small tech companies get acquired by giants?

It seems they'll run into the same problems that they are running in now growing herbs against large scale producers.

Like the post above you said, economies of scale will grow far quicker on fields in the middle of nowhere because of how cheap land is.

I'm only chiming in here because we do the same. We have an AD! Bizarrely it is actually rather easy to use despite the nightmare of rubbish docs on t'internets. We use winbindd (SSSD is another well respected option - must try it) and the algorithmic idmap backend which guarantees the same uid/gid on all Linux boxes. winbindd also sorts out Kerberos keytabs for the machine itself ("join the domain") and logged in used via winbind's NSS and PAM add ons. Finally, winbind can cache logins for offline logins which is nice for say this laptop that I am using right now.

All browsers that I use (IE, Chrom{e|ium}, Firefox) support GSSAPI. Apache, IIS, nginx support GSSAPI. OpenSSH and PuTTY support GSSAPI. There is a lot of support for it out there. Oh and of course Squid for all your proxy needs and HAProxy works as expected (I use it to front Exchange to get PCI DSS compliance even for Exchange 2010 - but that is more a TLS thing). Evolution EWS works through that lot using Kerberos for auth for the full Exchange client experience, including calendaring, without needing Outlook.

Kerb is for auth whereas SSL is for encryption. I think you may be confusing use cases a bit. To be fair all that stuff can be a bit confusing and there is a lot of overlap. SSL can be used for identity proof (often proof by assertion) and so can Kerberos (proof by faith in the rest of your realm)

> Bards pre-literate-times in Greece purportedly could recite Homer's Odyssey themselves after one hearing

Is this a true fact, or just a story people keep repeating because it sounds interesting?

If it were true... how would we know? Presumably you would cite sources from Ancient Greece where people reported that they knew bards who could memorize a whole story with one listen, but like, there are sources from Ancient Greece claiming to know of a woman who was so ugly that looking at her could turn a man to stone.

We can kind of sanity check the claim by looking at modern peoples. Anthropologists have extensive experience with pre-literate peoples, and they do have fine memories --but not magical ones [1].

Yeah I didn't really have a larger point about this being due to climate change or anything. I realize that no one specific data point is ever evidence of climate change or lack thereof (unlike that senator who brought a snowball into Congress).

Although the paper could have provided a more quantative introduction, like with the doomsday part, however the math on these kinds of things have been done and done again over and over in so many papers, approaching from geological (looking at the rock layers and looking for the frequency of layers that indicate poor living conditions like embedded soot, certain rock types that suggest high energy impact, etc.), archeological (looking at the number of species from fossils in rock layers and looking for large decreases), and physical (solar system asteroid simulations, mathematical study, etc.).

In the end it's been done and the scientific community are well aware of the evidence. They don't need to re-invent the wheel be summarising/repeating this research...

Loads of new laws have been created that go backwards. For example, laws in the banking and finance sector that violate privacy rights and create a mass surveillance situation in the name of fighting terrorism have been increasing since the 1970s, with the passing of the Banking Secrecy Act, and especially since 2001. These same laws are excluding an ever greater percentage of the population from the most lucrative areas of the financial sector, thus exacerbating income inequality.

Laws against drug use have increased significantly since 150 years ago, resulting in the criminalisation of large numbers of people and industries.

Laws on occupations and food production have multiplied, resulting in millions being disenfranchised, and the economy being increasingly dominated by large professional outfits and agribusiness, respectively.

I would argue we have not moved forward in several major areas, and on the contrary have been regressing.

It is in spite of the increasing burden of the state that society has progressed, no because of it.

I have different problem (on sales side).

If a potential customer only talks about "feature" and it does not talk about their problem then I consider the customer a "troll". Move on.

The problem with "feature you need" is that many many times IT have no clue that problem X can be solved with feature A, feature B, etc. And whether they envision that "feature' should look like will never be exact the same what my team implemented.

In short, from founders perspective, if I cannot understand that we are solving problem X then I cannot sell our product. But there are some shark which can do - but for small startups that is not good.

I considered it but I'm not a big fan of headphones, I usually listen to music at home or in a car.

One of the most annoying situations was when I had a great podcast I wanted to share with someone on a long drive, pulled out the iPhone 7 to plug into their car stereo and.... new-ish car.... but AUX only.... no dongle..... never mind!

I believe Apple removed the headphone jack 5 or 10 years too early. Bluetooth is not that great, and it's also not that widespread. AUX is not a floppy or CD drive, it is everywhere and works great and allows for high quality audio, no troubleshooting, no compression, no hassle. The alternatives (dongle? Bluetooth?) is comparatively nowhere and does not work great.

Note that the two quoted pieces refer to different problems. One is treatment short of professional respect[0] (for which second chances are held out), the other is validated complaints of sexual harassment (for which no second chances are held out.)

This appears to be both a clear zero-tolerance policy for sexual harassment, and an attempt to prevent anything near the border of harassment and illegal discrimination by addressing behavior which is not necessarily illegal but falls short of professionalism strongly (but without a “zero-tolerance” approach.)

[0] it says such treatment is unacceptable, then relates the consequences of discovery of such unacceptable behavior.
