'AI is the New Electricity' and people are moaning about Watson being over-hyped? Electricity was real and delivered immediate benefits. AI does not even exist yet! Imagine I could give you a true AI. yay! Unfortunately,it has the IQ of a 9 year old. Do you want to license that at great expense to make key business decisions for your company? All that Jeopardy and chess has become real double-edged now. People don't seem to get how thick-skulled pointy-haired bosses are. We are probably a century away from that. We can do some great inference from big data sets that will help invent cures for diseases and many things but it isn't a panacea. It isn't 'finicky' some applications will lend themselves more than others. I wouldn't worry too much about the IBM talent pool either. And yes okay disclosure ex-bluesuit.
I do much the same thing, but I push them to a git repo on a server that I control.

GPG smartcards are super nice for that though, the machines I use on a daily basis don't have access to any of my passwords unless I explicitly decrypt them.
Long to short, the concept of passwords has overstayed it's welcome. Think about the brief and brisk evolution of the internet...and we're still stuck with the password?

There's got to be a better way...
Actually, I suspect those knots are thwarted ambition or unaddressed life problems or something else that could be fixed that alcohol is just anesthesizing.

It might still be rational. The costs of change on other people, like children, may make it not worthwhile, or the struggle to fulfill ambition might rationally be viewed as pointless. Just don't dismiss the knots as things that can only be treated with alcohol.
If you run your own business you know why that is never going to be the goal for a company neither should it imo.

Firstly the US has no jurisdiction whatsoever over international waters.

Secondly most of the countries involved in this are US allies, and in fact US scientific institutions play an essential role in it. Why wouldn't they? This sort of thing is what us marine scientific research organisations exist for.

Thirdly US mining companies could stand to make billions off the back of this sort of data. Why pass that up, or drive such benefits abroad?

Finally, imposing such a ban would be tantamount to the US declaring unilateral sovereignty over all of the Earth's oceans and their contents. I know the current administration doesn't seem too bothered about snubbing it's closes allies, but even if the US wanted to do this, they couldn't. They don't have anywhere close to the assets to monitor and interdict all the Earth's oceans. They certainly don't have the capacity to do that and also carry out the security and defence missions their naval and air assets are already assigned to.

So what part of their current security commitments do you think the US would be willing to give up to try and enforce such a ban? Do you think alienating all their allies would make it easier or harder to carry out those existing commitments?

If wishes were fishes....
Outside of a major startup hub you're probably better off finding local investors or relocating.

The single biggest bottleneck at any VC firm is the partner's time. If the partner has to fly out to meet you (multiple times during the investment process + for every board meeting) it means you require significantly more time than a local investment. It's also a lot harder for a remote VC to provide support in areas like hiring (i.e they're unlikely to have many good candidates in their network who are located near you).

All of this means that the threshold for a VC to want to invest in a startup outside of their key hubs is higher than for local startups.

Chinese constitution says a lot, but china does not practice constitutional law: judges are not allowed to base decisions on the constitution and definitely are not allowed to use the constitution as the basis for overriding official law.

In a similar vain, china lacks rule of law. Rather they practice rule by law, where laws are used to control the public (if they want to get you, they'll find a laws you've probably broken) vs. having everyone, including officials who haven't fallen out of favor, subject evenly to them. So even westerner developed democracies aren't perfect in their practice of rule of law, but in china it isn't even a goal (like they have rejected constitutional law).
A lot of them? In the US as a rule of thumb you take whatever salary you're paid and 1.7/8-2.x it and that's what you're actually being paid when you take into account benefits in addition to salary. Even in the Great Lakes region you're looking st like $60-$70,000 starting salary + a great healthcare plan, 401k, bonuses, and in some instances even a pension still. Hell, even public institutions pay well in this regard.
It is a shorthand method of casting to a boolean value - C didn't have a true bool type until "recently" (but did have the concept of truthiness, where true is `is not 0`), so many projects and libraries use `#define TRUE 1`, and #define FALSE 0` or some similar variant.

So rather than write `foo ? TRUE : FALSE` or being more explicit `(foo != 0) ? 1 : 0`, you can just do `!!foo`.
Being able to do something doesn't mean you are able to do it. Good luck with that setup if you are working in finance and something fucks up or there's an audit.
> was supposed to be ported to Windows

It was ported to Windows. I cannot check the remarks about stability because I use Linux, but it sounds plausible. There's only a handful (maybe 2 or 3) developers working on Windows support in their spare-time AFAIK. I would guess that KDE had anticipated more Windows developers joining the project as it progressed towards maturity.

That's always the problem with open-source projects: It's very hard to do planning and forecasting with a bunch of volunteers. Even if they commit to a roadmap, there will always be someone who has to step down because of private issues (new job, new child, etc.). Go is in a much better position since Google has headcount assigned to it (again, AFAIK).
Drugs and Alcohol is how i want to spend my retirement.
It's a quick cast to a boolean.
I'm not a coder so my understanding of the technology is very limited, but couldn't we use the blockchain to P2P host something besides a crypto currency, something like a public discussion platform that's tamper/censorship proof?
The crypto currency feature could still be kept in place as a payment for people doing the actual hosting, but it would only be there to help facilitate the platform itself and not it's sole purpose.

Is that idea even viable or am I vastly misunderstanding the technology behind BC?

Product Hunt Debunked: What have we learnt after 7 launches?
I'm using Forgotit? http://www.peppermind.com because I wrote it. However, it's not equivalently powerful - no syncing, no browser integration at all, etc.

It's also not open source so I don't recommend it to anyone but me. :-)
So the issue boils down to, this person wants control over where they put their password vaults? To play devil's advocate: what makes your solution better than one from a company specifically based around security? If you use Dropbox, iCloud, etc., why is it somehow better than their cloud based solution? And if you don't choose the cloud option, what makes your local computer significantly better than their cloud based solution, besides that you have control over it? An argument I buy is that you need it to be local for regulatory reasons, but if that's the case you wouldn't be using 1Password since it's not certified in any of the major ways, like HIPAA (from my understanding).

I do agree that you should get a choice, but I don't think the argument the author is presenting is good enough. I do think that the argument that they're pushing their subscription model very heavily is bad, is true, but I can also buy 1Password's argument that it's technically more difficult to set up, because it does tend to be (I remember having to set up something when I set up 1Password initially, but it's been a while now). I also am not worried because, trusting 1Password's word, they're not removing the option.

I do use 1Password, and I don't particularly care about this change. If I'm trusting a company enough to create an app that is essentially the gatekeeper to my entire digital life, I sure as hell should trust their cloud based solution. I think that 1Password is still the best; beyond their vault design, which I have worked with and trust (and trust the researchers who read and verified the white paper), their UI is still the best for me thanks to its great integration into iPhone and Safari. I am of course not a security researcher, but I don't see the inherit negative here.
I think you misunderstand what is meant by networks.

VCs constantly meet new people but generally it's people recommended by their current network or sourced by outbound research rather than people who cold email.
I think the workflow is pretty easy: buy a MacBook & an iPhone, and load your app onto the phone & test on it for things which the iOS simulator is not good at.

It is called Redbook Audio, because that is what the standard for audio cds is called. Technically, this would have to be called Orangebook because it mixes Redbook and Yellowbook (the standard for data on cds). See https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rainbow_Books

If, like me, you are a happy 1Password subscription customer and don't care about this business decision, the one thing I did learn from this article is to avoid the browser client and only use the native clients.
As often in China, the killer feature will probably be that the Chinese government is going to make it even harder for all the companies except their own to get a license.
By that definition, analyzing compiled native code would be "un-obfuscating".

IMO, deobfuscation is a subset of reverse engineering - which at a push I would define as "taking a program from the form it is distributed into a preferred form for modification/understanding".
Yes, but would it kill them to just put a pricing there?

Because Ruby doesn't have a to_boolean method. !! is used to convert "truthy" or "falsy" values [0] into true boolean true or false values.

For example,

def user_signed_in?
!!current_user
end

This returns "true" or "false", instead of a (truthy) User object or a (falsy) nil.

A gross income of $240k is just an hourly rate of $120/hr. That's "meh" consulting/contracting rates. The mid/senior folks I know - and I can think of at least a half dozen - don't even get out of bed for less than $200/hr. They generally work a client FTE for 3/6/12 months, make them wildly happy, move on, rinse, and repeat
How much work do they get? Because in theory, at that rate they could get 3.65 million dollars a year if they didn't take breaks (and maybe "only" 2 million dollars a year if they did).
> Lightning damage!

lol, not what I expected!

Bad caps are obvious, they bulge out or their resistance is shot.
Yes, but it's a technicality. For all intents and purposes it is an argument against pop-up employers if that form of employment means having worse health care coverage, or none at all (I'm not based in the US, so not entirely sure how it works). Ensuring the same health care coverage invalidates the argument, but that's not today's reality as I understood it.
I don't understand why we aren't moving toward useful computation as a proof of work..

As an example, while it might take complex rounds to turn desired SETI analysis into verified SETI analysis work, with more payout/work going to winning verification rounds than the analysis rounds, I would presume 1-5% of all future SETI coinage would be the actual past computations cost for that public good, that is going to be a lot of computations for the public good.

If many future coins are really backed by different useful work, we could then have a decentralized way to achieve global computation projects, and the currency market becomes a means to vote on the large scale human endeavours with ones liquidity.

What I find destructive in Bitcoin is that the removal of the central banks should not just prevent the abuse and printing benefits governments get when their currency is used by throwing all of it in energy value down the toilet. The value should be going to public good computations in each coinage so we can vote on global projects with our wallets.

>Who gives a fuck what the US government ‘allows’?

Iraq and Afghanistan, for starters. If the US doesn't allow something and you do it anyway, you tend to come up with a nasty case of Dead.
For inspiration: http://zenpencils.com/
Can you give any example of where the US has been caught giving IP stolen from espionage, to a domestic business purely to give the business a better advantage? Where there the IP had no military or security value?

If they did this, which company benefited? Did all domestic companies in the same business get the same deal or only that one single lucky one?
What's the point of using git to synchronise password storage?

Assuming you're randomly generating passwords, the diffs basically amount to storing all prior passwords; fine, but git seems overkill for that?
This was when I kind of lost interest, as it became clear generics would never happen.

In the early days I was enthusiastic enough that I tried to provide support for the os.user implementation on Windows.

Nowadays I just advocate Go for C use cases, where the use of a tracing GC is not an hindrance as a way for us to enjoy safer computing.

Oh, and the code of the new syncmap.Map is full of unsafe.Pointer as workaround for lack of generics, while achieving good performance.

Because the high number of these competitors make it look like the vast majority of them are just pump and dump speculation schemes.

In a way cryptocurrencies have become the new Wallstreet where few people, with very specialized knowledge and connections, can make money while they keep telling everybody else "It's so easy everybody can do it" so they have a steady supply of new suckers.

IP2Location Programming Contest 2017
Nitpick, but the idea is even older, going back at least to Girard (1971) and Reynolds (1974). :)

I don't know exactly what the problem is for Go. There are tradeoffs, e.g., just with the type system: impredicative, stratified or predicative quantification, implicit subtyping or explicit type instantiation, value restrictions, variance handling for mutable inductive types, Hindley-Milner or bidirectional typechecking, etc. There are more tradeoffs with the implementation. Fortunately, these are all well understood by now.

However, it is also true that many mainstream languages famously got generics wrong. What's most infurating about this situation is that a lot of research just gets ignored. If the question is really "should Go have generics whose design is based on C++ templates and/or Java generics" then the only sane answer is a resounding no.
This does not apply to Equihash (ZCash) or DaggerHashimoto.

In terms of who needs binary blob diffs, yes, its an overkill. In terms of having easy to set sync method anywhere it works beautifully. Pass has integrated git commands so pass git <command> does everything that git does. Commits are automatic with every change so all I need to do is "pass git push" on one machine and "pass git pull" on another to keep everything in sync.

i'd be willing to bet you have some problems in your life. if not, you'd be the first person in the world who doesn't. so what's stopping you from solving them, right now? perhaps you are too cowardly?

We will never move out of this situation until we repeal the de facto currency and go back to real money based on gold. We have had only legal tender since 1933. Lincoln got killed for printing Greenbacks. Kennedy was assassinated for exposing secret socities. We are under the rule of a fictional commercial entity incorporated in a land taken by war and therefor the laws of admiralty are the true rule of this land. The Fed, IRS and US CORP are Vatican/British entities. The world continues to be conquered by the Roman Empire. Lets get rid of US Debt Currency and move into real money. That's the real solution, a true independence. We are nothing more than a subsidiary of the IMF and WorldBank. If the people of US don't realize this basic truth nothing will ever change. The reality is that those who control currency are in power. Before you judge do some research on Puerto Rico and IRS. Also look at the US code itself. The creators use the loopholes (remedies) to remain in control.

> There seems to be this unshakeable belief in some people that things that things that aren't given permission by a government aren't legal, where it is, in fact, the other way around.

It's got more to do with the knowledge that governments are the ones who decide what's legal and what's not. So if governments deem cryptocurrencies as "illegal", or something worth regulating, then there's literally nothing you can do against that.

Wouldn't be the first time mere math has been heavily regulated: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Export_of_cryptography_from_th...
I use a (not so well known) feature with Google AppEngine - Images API. It's pretty awesome as well. Works really well for web applications with basic image manipulation requirements.

https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/standard/python/imag...

The best part is, you call your image with specific parameters that'll do transformations on the fly. For example,

<image url>/image.jpg?s=120

will return a 120px image. Appending -c will give you a cropped version, etc.
Does anyone have an explanation for why China is so successful? We have it pounded into our heads that we need globalization in the form of open markets with no protectionism for US companies and immigration, yet china almost completely locks out foreign businesses and takes next to no immigrants and is obviously a quickly growing global superpower.

Pedigree/track Record doesn't have to mean tech startups, deep experience in the industry vertical also counts.

If you look at say startups serving the oil/gas industry they're mostly founded by founders with industry backgrounds from outside of tech hubs.

If you're in that kind of scenario I'd recommend finding people who cross both the industry in question & the tech industry (i.e. angels with a background in the industry, other tech founders in your industry, etc.)

Although if you're based outside the major tech hubs it's probably easier to focus on local investors for early rounds.
A better stretch goal would be to build a permanent presence there.
There is a funny mode on ARM processors (turned on in some images, by default) which causes unaligned reads to silently return bogus data (just increasing a kernel counter).
