If a correlation is consistent, some sort of causation is quite likely. There are of cause spurious correlations but in physics experiments we can mostly get rid of them by repeating the experiment several times, unlike in economics for example.

The more important point, however, is that a correlation between A and B does not imply that A causes B or B causes A. It could also be that unknown factor C causes A and B.

Thalys train attack? It was an AKM, not an AR.

A simple metal detector would've caught a long gun, even with incompetent security personnel. By only allowing small "carry on" bags in the passenger carriages (storing larger "checked" bags in a separate freight car) the attack space is limited to what can fit in a handbag or backpack. It won't catch everything, but wrt terrorist attacks trains are safer than airplanes.

Interesting, thanks for sharing.

How does the support for multiple protocols (so non https but tls protocols) work? I was able to add my imaps server but it doesnt' show in the certificates. This could be because the same certificate is used by my https server. But your site should not take it for granted that both, imaps and https will always use the same certificate. I would love to see a report per "server".
I'm tired of all these stories about reckless people remortgaging their houses to work on a startup. It's as though being reckless is a virtue. It's encouraging others to do the same and fall flat on their faces.
That is why I tried to keep it to a minimum, with only OSes being needed to be upgraded for the most part. Modern 32-bit and 64-bit user mode programs should still work, but a lot of x86 complexity would be removed. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14560455 is a good thread on some of them. Reducing complexity also helps opening x86 to more competition too.

The bytes and bytestring types in Python 3 are basically the str type of Python 2 and I don't see that as much of a hoop to jump through.

load balancing at application level with nginx is pretty easy and well documented. The bigger problem is to write your application in a way that enables clustering.

in order to utilize load balancers, you'll need to have your application running simultaneously after all. This ultimately means that you'll most likely need to outsource your jobs into a queue tool such as RabbitMQ and have your cluster nodes fetch them.

lots of refactoring if you didn't plan for such a scenario from the start.

EU, take note. To me the premise is absolutely true: Further unifying the market will spur growth. European start-ups starting in Europe instead of their tiny home country will be a much bigger competition to their US counterparts, which at the moment can often easily crush them, because they already have conquered their rich, big and English speaking home market.

Are you reading the same thread as me? He replied explaining precisely why this is an error and received nothing but hate for it, 40 thumbs downs.

No, apparently I'm not. In the thread I read, OP mentioned a regex that he found somewhere on the internet, and poettering just confirms it would be invalid. No references who says it's invalid or where to look up the definition. Nothing. Also no mention of the "default to root" issue in his post, which clearly could be considered a security issue as mentioned in several comments on the issue and here in the comments. He says config options are validated to prevent mistakes, but doesn't give any insight why anyone would consider default to root a sane fallback. You call that "explaining precisely"?

On the other hand, you come here to uselessly complain and have the temerity to complain that poettering doesn't write exactly the code you want him to write.

I gave examples of his contradictory behaviour regarding usability and dangerous pitfalls while claiming systemd would be elegant and easy to use. I'm not complaining he doesn't write code I want, I'm complaining he doesn't practice what he preaches and--as stated by the very first phrase of my comment--to explain why it doesn't come as much of a surprise to me he gets so much hate.

I've been working with systemd since late 2012 and like a lot of its ideas and concepts, but the way this guy deals with bug reports and people is just horrible.

How do you justify your ridiculous attitude?

Well the problem lies in exaggerations of not-actually-using-javascript crowd. If the "cycle" would be five years, would it still be that bad? If the previous framework would be of the very first generation of actual workable JS frameworks, and new one brought major improvements, would it still be that bad?

Reality is very different from these discussions.
I think APL/J/K are typically implemented as interpreters rather than compilers, because the languages contain some ambiguity that you might not always be able to resolve statically. See for example: http://t3x.org/klong/ambiguity.html

The J Incunabulum provides a glimpse of a toy interpreter and of Arthur Whitney's style: http://code.jsoftware.com/wiki/Essays/Incunabulum

I've found it quite interesting in terms of data structures, parsing, evaluation and how the primitives are implemented. I reformatted it into a more readable style (more readable to me). Memory management is through reference counting I think (maybe not in this example, but I vaguely remember reading that somewhere).

Interpreters for array languages are quite efficient because the primitives operate on arrays and you tend to not have explicit loops in the scripts themselves. The loops are "hidden" inside the optimized primitives in the interpreter. You can add further optimizations by recognizing certain idioms like +/ for "sum" and providing a special optimized implementation. Obviously that doesn't work for user-defined functions. I don't know if K etc can optimize those as well.

Another thing to consider is how you represent intermediate values. If you're operating on large arrays, you don't want to create a lot of large intermediate arrays that you'll throw away immediately. You can probably detect situations where you can modify arrays in-place.

This papers provides as different solution: http://dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=512761 Unfortunately I don't know if there's a free copy available anywhere, so I haven't actually read the paper. I'd be interested to know if there's a free legal copy available somewhere.

It might be similar to stream fusion for lists in Haskell: http://fun.cs.tufts.edu/stream-fusion.pdf Or how you might optimize SQL/relational queries for databases by pushing down projections through selects and joins to reduce the amount of data that you need to retrieve and work on.

These approaches might also allow you to optimize user-defined functions.

Finally, Timothy Budd implemented a compiler for a slightly modified version of APL and documented the result: http://www.springer.com/de/book/9780387966434 Again, I don't know if there's a free legal PDF anywhere, so I haven't read the book. I'd be interested in a free legal copy of this book as well.

Scroll.in is not a valid news source. Also, consider the scenario before UID. The food and money wasn't even reaching the correct people.

As far as I am concerned, release first, patch later worked wonderfully for UID, and it will probably be similar for GST.

If you see the converting as hoop-jumping then I agree with you.

If you do recognize that there is such a thing called text, that human understand, and for example the text "hello" has five "letters".... The point that that text might be represented in five different (and equally valid) ways with different amounts of bytes is irrelevant to the "human user"...

Hence the sharp distinction between makes sense to most humans.

The danish word "rødgrød" for example is seven letters (i.e. every person would say it is 7 letters long), a computer would call it 7, 7 9 or 16 bytes (in cp865 (nordics) latin1("wester european", utf8 and utf16...)

Unless you work in the ideal "text" mode getting the correct length of the text is not that trivial. Equally, the pair 2-3 and and 7-8 bytes in utf8 must not be split (as either half has not meaning on its own).. hence (in utf8) a function "give me the next letter" will return 1,2,1,1,1,2,1 bytes in its revocations..

Also casefolding (upper/lower case) is hard when working in bytes (some glyphs might not even have one or the other)..

I am unable to say if unicode fits all languages in the world as needed, but it is much better as byte-wrangling if you have multiple possible encodings at once..

EDIT: for reference the bytes of "rødgrød" are

cp865 : b'r\x9bdgr\x9bd'

latin1 : b'r\xf8dgr\xf8d'

utf8 : b'r\xc3\xb8dgr\xc3\xb8d'

utf16le: b'r\x00\xf8\x00d\x00g\x00r\x00\xf8\x00d\x00'

utf16be: b'\x00r\x00\xf8\x00d\x00g\x00r\x00\xf8\x00d'

(and it cannot be written in ASCII ("C"))

Anyone saying that bytes and text are the same are nuts...

Sorry! I was responding late at night, and, even though I quoted it, I totally missed tanderson92 (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14680337) 's caveat "that he/she didn't have power over", which, of course, totally changes the ethics.

(It still doesn't seem persuasive to me to argue the ethics of a behaviour in terms of what used to be common, since it is still true that a lot of awful things used to be, and still are, common; but my comment was mostly based on a misinterpretation.)

In the 90s their "in a nutshell" books were worth their weight in gold. But you are right that tech is different now. A nutshell book from back then would be good for 5 or 10 years. Now the "shelf life" (haha) is a year at most before tech fashion moves on.
> You're right that you can get Python 3 to behave correctly if you jump through some hoops. However, wasn't the point of Python 3 to remove the hoopjumping in the first place?

The hoops of encoding and decoding bytes are not optional, manipulating text and manipulating arbitrary bytes are not the same thing and encoding and decoding is how you translate between the two domains. Python 2 hid this for a subset of the bypes and code was usually broken as a result. Python 3 requires that this split be taken in account in all cases (as do e.g. Java or C#) and is significantly better as a result.

> Anglophone programmers think that internationalisation means "upgrading" from ASCII to Unicode.

Which is a pretty significant upgrade from their previous case of literally not giving a fuck.

That's completely meaningless word salad.
I was one of those script kiddies. It was a painful but useful learning experience.
Seriously, if you are wanting to protect client side js, you are closing the barn after the horse has bolted.

Even with obfuscation, if the code is worth copying (for any reason, including money), it will be copied. It is irrelevant if it closed or open source.

Even with it server side, any mistakes on your part and the code is available to whoever really wants it.

Your friends would be better off finding out who was sold the code and letting those people know where the code actually came from. Do it pleasantly and your friends may find themselves some new customers.

The one thing they do need to be careful about is not coming across vindictively. The potential clients may find that attitude less than favourable. Your friends could even do reviews on the Fiverr site with humorous comments about how good the people were at copying other peoples code and selling it as their own. Be funny about it and let the culprits lose it. It will pay off in the end.

I have come across others who have had their work copied and then sold. The best way to handle this is NOT to get angry, but to use it as a means of advertising yourself. Your work is so good that people want copy it and pretend that it is their own work. How good a recommendation is that?

There are different ways to handle this, be inventive, be pleasant and be smart.

Agreed, though repeated measurements weren't mentioned so I thought it was important to emphasize that finding a correlation in one measurement cannot be taken to imply causation, which sounded like what OP was saying.

Your point is a very good one, though. If we view causation through a causal graph, such that vertices are variables and direct causal links are arrows (directed edges), a statement "correlation doesn't imply causation" can be taken to mean several things:

* From correlation, we cannot determine the direction of the arrow.
* From correlation, we cannot claim there *is* a (direct) arrow between two vertices.
* From correlation, we cannot claim there is even a path from one vertex to the other.

Given how many journals (at least in math) specifically forbid you from doing this even if you have access to individual articles, I think that it's no accident that this functionality isn't available.

I also think that this is probably better kept external to the journals (in which setting, I think things like it already exist, with Mendeley, Papers, etc.—though I'm not very familiar with any of them, so perhaps they don't suffice). I don't want to have to learn a different advanced article annotation system for each journal that I read. (I suppose we could dream of a unified standard that all journals would obey.)

> Hint: this is much closer to what string handling in sensibly designed languages like Rust and Go or Erlang looks like.

* Rust has a very strict split between bytes and text

* Go has fucked up bytestrings which depending on validity may break at any point depending on the API you're applying

* Erlang's strings are widely considered awful, and are literally just linked lists of integers making them slow, memory-heavy and prone to pretty-printer whims (as the pretty printer decides on the fly whether a given list looks like a string — and should be printed thus — or does not — and should be printed as a regular list of integers)
