Nice to see you getting into Perl! For these types of tasks it is indeed very powerful and a great fit.

Some suggestions for you to research to further improve your script:

You are using a lot of shell commands in backticks like `rm -rf out && mkdir out`;

This can be very useful if you want to capture the output of such commands, but it also runs the commands in separate processes using the shell programs. For much of what is in your script you can just use Perl! :)

Read up on core modules like Archive::Tar and the various IO::* modules to start using pure Perl for what you need to do.
http://perldoc.perl.org/index-modules-A.html

Good books to read would be Modern Perl by chromatic or Beginning Perl by Ovid.
There are few things more effective in controlling people's behaviour than shame and humiliation. Of course you need to be a part of a strong community for that to be effective as well. Shame and humiliation, I suspect has less of an effect in societies based on transactional relationships.

In either case, I feel we'll see a return to older type of punishments, like public flogging or being tied down in a post to enforce shame. That's if, companies come to this realisation in order to protect their bottom line.
Perhaps, if you let your personal vehicle join the taxi fleet.

But I suspect (dedicated) self-driving taxis will become the most intimately surveilled space on earth, and anyone littering etc will be fined for it, certainly to the point of covering cleaning costs, and most likely as an additional revenue stream.

Additonally I suspect, far from ushering in an era of care-free, and almost cost-free travel, the self-driving fleet will be metered like cell-phones (ridiculously complex price plans), and part of the 'price' will be that your travel data is sold on.

True freedom will be a bicycle - assuming viable routes between "bicycle friendly areas" remain open - a danger is that inter-city/town/village roads become robot-only, and you can only actually travel 'manually' within bounded living areas, eg a city precinct, village, etc.
I think a lot of people in California have literally never seen the inside of a train. As a result, they can't imagine ever incorporating in to their lifestyle, and it represents, more than anything else, a change in life that might, someday, threaten their ability to drive everywhere. Of course, they have a hard time seeing how their driving everywhere affects everyone else, because it's all they've ever known. (E.G. killing loads of walkers and cyclists, emitting horrible pollution linked to myriad diseases, forcing songbirds to change frequency, demanding that land be used to let their car sleep instead of letting people sleep, and generally destroying street atmosphere and liveliness).

Growing up in the central valley I took Bart ONE TIME as a kid, and it's still a highlight of my entire damn childhood. I suppose I may like trains more than most, but after that my goal in life was mostly to escape suburbia.
Interesting links off the OA to the generation after Shannon who implemented a lot of the ideas.

>> Reflecting on this time later, he remembered the flashes of intuition. The work wasn’t linear; ideas came when they came. “One night I remember I woke up in the middle of the night and I had an idea and I stayed up all night working on that.” <<

Do people think that putting Shannon somewhere like the Institute for Advanced Study would actually have quickened up his thinking? Or is a level of distracting background activity actually helpful?
It is a straw man - you're justifying your suggested solution by comparing it to something that is already considered bad in the area. That's exactly what a straw man is.
You're anonymous in a metro train. You're not in a self-driving car.

As others have mentioned, the app can have a button to report a cleanliness issue. Working back from the first report means you don't have to review 12 hours of footage. As a side note (since this is HN), you don't have to review 12 hours linearly, you can use a binary search, which means you can probably find the culprit in minutes at most.
Well if they do ban encryption they probably would still use it themselves (government, politicians). That would literally mean different laws for different people. Fight it on the basis of that. Remember how France tried to outlaw the encryption in the 90s and it didn't work because government servers were also using it.
I, for one, don't use credit cards. Amazon gets paid in zero surcharge gift cards paid in cold, hard cash. Privacy and control are more important than "convenience" of being skimmed and robbed at every turn.

Assange has written about the chilling implications in Cypherpunks:

JACOB: The force of nearly all modern authority is derived from violence
or the threat of violence. One must acknowledge with cryptography no
amount of violence will ever solve a math problem.

JULIAN: Exactly.

JACOB: This is the important key. It doesn’t mean you can’t be tortured,
it doesn’t mean that they can’t try to bug your house or subvert
it in some way, but it means that if they find an encrypted message it
doesn’t matter if they have the force of the authority behind everything
that they do, they cannot solve that math problem. This, though, is the
thing that is totally non-obvious to people that are non-technical, and
it has to be driven home. If we could solve all of those math problems,
it would be a different story and, of course, the government would be
able to solve those math problems if anyone could.
I think the difference is that on many issues, people on HN agree on the basic assumptions and skip the 'sources plz' part. In part because many of us are from the same country or similar cultures.

That in itself is not necessarily a good thing; more than once I've seen it lead to fruitless discussion because it turns out those involved actually did not agree on those assumptions.

But on the other hand it's sometimes necessary. We can't have a discussion, practically speaking, where we define every term we use journal-article-style, or provide references for every single assumption.

My point is that it strikes me as perfectly reasonable that when 'we' are confronted with a perspective that is very different from our own, some more effort should be put into providing arguments (and/or definitions).

Not to mention that on the whole I'd say HN already demands elaboration even from those who have a relatively-similar perspective or background, and I think more of that wouldn't hurt.

I do understand how it can seem unfair, but I don't think it's unreasonable.
It's about slavery here, not capitalism. And since infinite growth cannot happen in a finite system, you need to learn some math anyway.
I reload $50 using cash at Starbucks about once a month onto the iOS wallet. It's much faster (3 seconds) than dealing with change, stupid slow American credit card chips or wondering if there's CC skimming via the POS system or other means.

It is though. You cant ensure ownership if there is no third party the point that of the blockchain is that it solves that issue by turning the entire network into the notarius. Public/private key cryptography does not solve that.

I said "certain views should never ever be publicly stated", and suddenly I need to defend such position?

If you live in a society that allows you to publicly state anything without consequences, I'd say that is horrible.

If you live in the US, try talk about some racial stuff and bring in the same colonization elements in, see how that is going to end.

Time to grow up talk like an adult.
With the current political scene, I cannot say this advertisement has any convincing effect, except the negative ones.
The weakness is democracy. The Norwegian governing party - whoever it is - now knows that China's default position to perceived outside interference is disproportionate economic punishment, leading to pressure on the living standards of the voters they depend on. Autocratic states have discovered a critical weakness in the representative democracy and there's little we can currently do about it
Where I live the KABS (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_Mosquito_Control_Associ...) is very effective at reducing mosquito populations: "At a cost of 400k€ annually the result is a reduction of the mosquito population by 99% compared to untreated areas", and 95% of total mosquitoes in the larger area. They use proteins produced by a bacterium (Bacillus thuringiensis israelensis) to kill the larvae. It's fantastic, their work improves quality of life significantly.
I'm not sure " To the degree that sometimes my bosses were left hanging, waiting for a day or more on my work." necessarily means what you're saying. There are absolutely ways to communicate that you need a personal day - or that something is delayed because [reasons] - that aren't 'just disappearing'.
I like how they said turn off your phones while going to The Ceremony, but it's cool to leave them on during. And then when you're made, go take a walk.

While our lives are fragile, our numbers few, and our ability to destroy each other great, the capabilities that our technology gives us to survive and spread shouldn't be underestimated.
While you're right in pointing out that UPI was built against VISA and MasterCard and it is an innovative solution, I would not brand it as a brilliant API.

Recurring charges are currently not supported, we've seen frauds to the tune of 40cr happen already, "text message payments" is not part of the specification. It is a bank transfer method, that happens to run on mobile phones. It uses AES-256 with a static IV, and then calls it a hmac (common library spec).

Also, this is not the Government, but NPCI (which is a private entity held by all major banks in India).

There are more political ideologies out there than just capitalism and communism. It seems to be a very American thing to argue as if there are only ever two possible alternatives.
he was. and in a later interview he clarified he was not joking, nor metaphorically speaking. he said he literally wanted China to be colonised for 300 years.

the best explanation I could think of, is that he was young and tried to make an extraordinary statement to express his view. we all did this.
> The law doesn't apply to the ones that make them, apparently.

The police do not make the law, their job is to enforce it, essentially a monopoly on violence. Sadly however, it is the case that the law often does not apply to politicians. All men are equal but some are more equal than others.
The presence of others. A 1 on 1 is private, but you can speak with your boss when others are present.

Also don't forget that Australia is part of the "five eyes". Which means you can get bet the other countries: UK, US, NZ and Canada have been consulted and are likely to be supportive.
> Capitalism (more specifically, wealth-creating economic growth) is the cure.

The problem usually is what people mean by "capitalism". In the last decades, too much people equate neoliberalism to capitalism. They are completely different, as neoliberalism is closer to corporativism and fascism than actual capitalism (the state needs to spy you, wealth redistribution is bad, companies have the same rights as people, ...).

Public health care, compulsory education, the rule of law are the source of wealth creation. For that you need people with the freedom to pursue their business and their careers, but also progressive taxes and wealth redistribution.

Capitalism is a word charged with a too much political charge to get reasonable discussions.
You just can't turn the bull, all pun intended.
You're clearly trying to seed doubt about why Liu was sentenced to 11 years in prison.

He was condemned for "subversion", a vaguely defined crime that doesn't exist in democracies, but has been a popular legal tool in dictatorships.
Is anyone else getting consistently slower speeds on their GPU compared with their CPU? I seem to be getting:

CPU: 0.426s ±7.6%

GPU: 2.399s ±4.7%

Running Chrome, Latest Stable. Windows 7. It seems odd to me that it would take 6x longer when my graphics card (GTX 690) would theoretically be much faster than my CPU (Intel i7-3930k)

If you're in some way trying to deal with this problem (or open to trying yet again), I can highly recommend checking out the 'stopdrinking' subreddit. Or alternatively feel free to send me an email or something.
Wait until warranty is expired or you have saved enough to replace it.

Next time: consider buying second hand if that is an option where you live. Should give you more options wrt 3rd party sw alternatives.
Managers need to be available when things happen. I mean, they have other meetings, but during the day they should be able to give or receive "immediate" feedback; don't wait until the scheduled weekly (if you're that lucky) one-on-ones. However, if everybody is busy, and there's no immediate need to walk into each other's (virtual) office, it's good to have the scheduled interactions, to make sure you're still aligned as well as still pleasantly interacting as humans. (If the latter wasn't the case in the first place, maybe... wrong job.)
We definitely need the latter more than the former. STEM employment insecurity just drives up profitability of the companies that can hire exceptional talent for less than they're worth, and same for typical employees. Same can be said for most workers today, as wages have been suppressed for a while now afaik
Martin Fowler: MonolithFirst
Bingo. Unfortunately we already accept profound restrictions on our privacy by accepting regulations and taxes on private income, so it's hard to walk society back from this when there is already acceptance of the underlying moral principle.
As a point, what are your thoughts of a Meritocracy as a paradigm to follow? Nationalise everything, pay everyone an equal amount, to begin with, but based on their "merits" boost their pay. Seems to have all the advantages of capitalism, without the perceived negatives of communism equally a dictatorship or "fat cats", which could be managed by the government.
> They recently banned kids from being named Mohammad.

Glorifying someone like Mohammad is far worse.

This assumes that Chinese will want to be more like the west. Maybe this would have been true when China was economically underdeveloped, but as living standards improve they might care less what outsiders think and instead think they have something better. There's too much "White Man's Burden" ( https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_White_Man's_Burden ) thinking going on here.
It really depends on how the team was being run.

Some remote teams are like co-located teams and work synchronously with set office hours. Other remote teams work asynchronously instead and individuals are free to arrange their work and life as they see fit. In the latter case, if somebody is working on a task that'll take a few days, not hearing from them for a day or two isn't unusual or a problem.

It sounds like perhaps he thought all remote work was asynchronous, but his employer wanted him to work synchronously. But it would take a severe communications breakdown for that to get to the point where a weekly performance review was needed. Normally, you'd talk about how this all works before the person is even hired.

But honestly, when he describes it as humiliating, having a problem with being managed by younger people, and characterising being "judged" by his bosses as threatening, it does give the impression that the prima donna label isn't far wide of the mark. It's absolutely fine for younger people to manage older people, it's not humiliation to have weekly meetings to resolve a performance problem, and your bosses judging your performance is not a threat, it's a mandatory part of their role.
> it seems fairly polished from the video

Reminder: This is a Microsoft marketing video, they are never like the actual product. See Kinect and Hololens teasers for more.
I posted my comments above because you are blindly defending Liu's repressive comments without providing any 3rd party proof that can be publicly verified.

For your concerns regarding my post above, maybe you can start to back up your claims by providing some proof? For example, when you painted Liu's "China should be colonized by the west for 300 years" comments as some so called "misunderstanding", can you be more specific and shed some light on what makes you to believe that? Surely some convincing evidence is going to mute my doubts.

If you check my posts, I've provided his comments together with some analysis on his stands from a mainstream western media. You posted 4 times in this thread but everything was just what _YOU_ believe.

Sounds reasonable to you?
Be a machine :O
>To me it's the embodiment of the hypocrisy of the west when it comes to the defense human rights.

The Iraq War, The American War on Vietnam, daily drone bombings in Afghanistan and Pakistan by a nobel peace prize winner would be more like it.
Also rumours has it that Apple punishes you in the app store if you launch on Android first.

Database support will live outside of Rocket's core in Rocket's contrib [0] library. Everything in contrib is implemented independently of Rocket and is entirely optional to use. The implementation will be database agnostic and extensible to any database. I'm a big believer in pluggable, optional components with no forced decisions [1], and database support will follow the same philosophy.

So you're saying no to DRM (which I fully agree on). But hen you seem to say DRM is fine if it makes products cheaper.

That's basically you hopping onboard with DRM. It's always the excuse of manufacturers that their DRM makes things cheaper or more secure (the latter is what Intel used on its ridiculous ME).
Well if they do ban encryption they probably would still use it themselves (government, politicians).

That's not being proposed here.

It's unlikely to be localisation, because you'd expect to see it in the UK store as well.

Some companies only release iOS applications in certain countries to begin with because they want a gradual rollout rather than doing a global launch all at once. The App Store doesn't give you many options in this respect.
> McCLIM lingers in the background with a collection of tools which would make an IDE, but it lacks one or more better GUI backends.

Worth noting that McCLIM is again under active open-source development, so there are hopes for a decent GUI backend here.
As a boss the problem is employees take up so much time. Each employee really needs at least 30 minutes of your attention per day averaged over the month (mostly just chit chat, but also mentoring and feedback) [1]. Once you have more than a couple of people to manage there goes your whole day.

1. Yes some people are fine with less, but this is the average amount of time people need. Putting in less just results in a build up of management debt that will come back and bite you in the butt.
> I said "certain views should never ever be publicly stated", and suddenly I need to defend such position?

Yes. You must defend every word you say.

> Time to grow up talk like an adult.

You mean like an adult who can't defend his/her positions and is willing to send to jail everyone who disagrees with him/her? What a wonderful "adult" you must be.
