Modern Alchemy: Turning XSS into RCE (CVE-2017-12581)
If you've somehow never met someone with horror stories of interacting with their advisor, I'm impressed.
Your example anticipates a huge growth in productivity, which is a factor in GDP; in that case, the stock market is a forward indicator of anticipated GDP.

Which, if so, still doesn't allow it to grow infinitely out of proportion to GDP, unless the time horizon keeps changing or the anticipation of the future gets steadily farther away from reality.

So you mention in the eras it that it outpaces GDP... I've consistently had the message drilled into me that in the long term (20+ year horizon), stocks will return something like 7-10%, while of course, nobody would expect GDP growth anything like that (outside of a rapidly industrializing environment where productivity is rocketing upward, like China).

An era is not forever, so...
I agree.

Counterfeit goods cost rights holders money but the way these losses are calculated seems to be dishonest to me.

I think it's clear that some of the people who bought the counterfeit item would have bought the genuine article and those sales are lost but counterfeits are usually less expensive than genuine items and because they are less expensive, people who wouldn't normally buy the genuine article are enticed to buy the counterfeit.
This is blatantly misleading. computer programming was mostly typewriting back then.
The "summary and conclusion" says the key thing: it doesn't matter much which paste you're using.

Proper application is far more important: No gaps/bubbles, seated with proper pressure, thinnest possible layer.

I've had success in a production environment with the arctic silver 5. This was for a switch fabric IC that can hit 200W, forced-air-cooling through a vapour-chamber heatsink. FWIW other pastes worked fine too, but the factory preferred working with viscous compounds.
At 40,000 MPH (or about 18 kM/s) at best, the Earth could deflect it somewhat from 18,000 miles out. Remember that escape velocity is only 11 kM/s, so even if the asteroid grazed the atmosphere if it didn't slow by more than 7 km/S it would have just shot back out into space.

The GP is correct, if the asteroid is on an orbit that is outside of the ecliptic plane.

But to the article author's point, had it landed on nothing but ocean it would have had a different outcome. I believe the +/- 10 minutes conceptually was a way of illustrating some of the things that would have changed the outcome.
I had the same experience -- just did a mini-tour of Europe in March and, at every Airbnb, the host was MIA at a critical moment. Also, it was a major inconvenience that they typically had only one key and couldn't issue you others.

I don't agree with this either. I am in my thirties now and still stutter but I have made huge progress in the past 5 years. In the past stuttering was a huge part my life. Now, while I stutter from time to time my self confidence means it doesn't matter.

In the past I refused to use the phone. I couldn't. I would be vocally paralysed. Today I spent an hour talking on the phone to a mortgage broker.

The only situation I struggle with is conference calling at work. I haven't thought much on it as I rarely do it. I guess I worry I will get stuck and someone will talk over me.. which I guess is silly. If I did it more I am sure I would master it too.

From what I understand the real reason they're trying to get rid of the brothels is they bring in considerably less tax money than high-end retail.

One of my big disappointments in visiting Europe the last time is how the major cities are all starting to look the same, with big shopping districts devoted to the same high end brands. It sounds like Amsterdam is heading in that direction as well.

Valuable Lessons from My First Year of Freedom
What are you talking about "history shows"?

There's plenty of technologies that we are using today that previously failed. Like touch screens, now they are everywhere. And pretty much ever single technology had naysayers saying it wouldn't work for one reason or another.

And yeah most of the time the naysayers are right. Most attempts to innovate fail.

But maybe in 20 years these could completely replace traditional wind turbines and people will see them as the non-viable technology.

We don't know. Hence the need for research and development.
In my toy blockchain implementation, I just went with two constraints:
1) every timestamp must be strictly larger than the one of the previous block (this makes difficulty calculation easier)
2) timestamps may not be in the future (except for a little wiggle room for unsynchronized clocks)

My reasoning was roughly as follows:

Miners are incentivized to pick very large timestamps, because the longer it takes to mine X blocks, the easier becomes the proof of work they need to solve, giving them more block rewards and transaction fees in the long run. But if they want the network to accept their blocks, they can't pick timestamps in the future, so the best they can do is pick the current time as their timestamp.

> So, systems with many users (tens of thousands -> millions) would be stuck replicating an equal number of couch databases constantly

I also ran into this when using `continuous: true` to create persistent replication, which suffers from this 1-to-1 resource problem. I now use a single listener on `_db_changes` and fire one-off replication to the aggregate db. I'm also keeping an eye on spiegel[1]

I'm curious on how you handle offline support, sync conflicts, and multiple devices. I started with CouchDB 1.x and have been through enough growing pains to wonder how things would have been to stick with SQL, but I think the future is only brighter. CouchDB 2.1 looks great, and I hope the entire erlang ecosystem continues to see growth and adoption.

Up-or-out relies on a constant intake of new staff. You'll have to do a lot more hiring, and you're applying a pretty strong personality filter on the company.

And as Applejinx says, the fact that someone isn't suited to the role above them doesn't mean they aren't suited to their current role. Up-or-out means tossing out the guy who knows his job well and is doing it well to replace him with someone who's never done it before and needs a training period; this is significant overhead applied to every job in the company.

Letting fires burn is standard policy at this point. We learned it the hard way, particularly after the Big Burn, or the Great Fire of 1910.

It is uncontroversial to let isolated fires burn, but fires close to houses must be contained and fires close to towns must be contained.

So you're 100% on the side of deontology?
I agree that the opinions of the general public will influence that decision. To some extent, they should as they have always done. This is part of living in a society and sharing things electronically. One needs to be aware of this before sharing opinions, especially when they are specifically related to one's employment. This isn't a case of making a joke on Twitter and getting fired for it. His opinions also have an effect on his co workers and the whole company so I see no reason why this shouldn't be so. Imagine trying to work with this guy as a woman, knowing he thinks less of you simply because you're a woman. He really should have thought of this before sharing his rant or even putting it on a computer. He can't claim he doesn't know what happens to shared digital data (you can't control it) because he's a Google engineer.
A scalar is just a magnitude (call it amount). A vector is a direction with magnitude (call it length). A bivector is a pair of directions with magnitude (call it area). You can keep going and make something with volume and even more into higher dimensions.

Imagine putting a 2d rectangle into 3d space with some orientation. Starting from some corner of the rectangle, you have two sides coming out from it. In 3d space, those sides make 3d vectors. You can generalize it to 3 vectors making a cube with magnitude (volume). And these don't have to be perfect rectangles and cubes, they can be parallelograms and parallelopipeds (3d parallelograms) and higher dimensional analogues.

I think recursion as an implementation is easy; recursion as a concept is hard to understand if you are just starting to learn. I think part of it is getting your mind to accept the notion that a thing can know of itself before itself has been fully defined.

My comment was three sentences and I said exactly that in the third sentence.

Okay. That's exactly what I said. The entity releasing code under the GPL is not bound by the conditions of the GPL, and does not need to distribute the source.
Almost every Subway supports transparent upgrades during operation. In the absolute worst case scenarios you shut down single stations at night. By design almost every Subway is redundant - you at least have to have two lines, one for station bypass and one for returning trains. When you work on any Subway, you shut down one of the lines and manage traffic through the other.

The NY Subway is just the most incompetent, most mismanaged, most technically indebted subway on Earth.

There is no "problem with mass transit" as much as it is a problem with centralized administration of complex things, period. Anything of large scale that impacts many lives but has limited controllers to manage it is both rife for ineptitude / corruption / incompetence and easily ignored on the consumer side because of the complexity.

The same issue turns up all over infrastructure - outdated bridges, power lines, internet infrastructure, water pipes. Central authorities of incompetent taxpayer dollar rent seekers run them, the people are too ignorant / ill informed about deteriorating conditions to care, legacy technical debt builds up over centuries to be impossibly large.

And you won't escape them. The inverse of your scenario - rather than the car breaking down, the road collapses from age - is still wholly applicable. Car travel and vehicular routes are just as mired in corruption and bureaucracy making them a nightmare as trains. Trains breaking down is as easily solved as cars - there are maintenance stations, you take one train off, you put a new one on. The real problem is always when the tracks go bad - the centralization part. You could have a billion trains but not enough track / switching capacity to use them.

Not only are they behind on time, they are slower to accelerate than a smaller company. The automotive industry is a textbook example of a lumbering behemoth that resists change and takes forever to get anything done.

You've clearly misrepresented his views, and probably haven't read the thing at all. His point is against positive discrimination trying to even what he perceives is an statistical reality: less women apply for the job for biological reasons.

The fact that there are less women applying doesn't mean you can't find one suitable for the job, and one that's better than any other candidate applying for it.

I started off reading this with the expectation I'd be right in joining the fight with her. It is, after all, a pretty bad allegation, us ladies have to stick together, and I'm ready to take a side!

But oh my gosh THE FEELS. This is so emotionally written that it's almost impossible to derive any legitimate facts from the story. It's like a bad romance-gone-wrong novel written from the perspective of a perpetual victim.

Parts 1-3 are bad enough. Her follow-up is even worse. Oh yes, everyone is terrified of millennials. Haha. No. You're not qualified to scare us. You just think you are, and every stupid little setback sends you into a deluge of tears (how many times did she describe her crying in this story?).

She might have been entirely in the right with her allegation, I don't know. It's too hard to tell amidst her poor me inner dialogue of pain and suffering and tragedy.

One thing her college life didn't teach her was any semblance of resilience. That life isn't always fair. That some times you suck it up. I mean, no one died, her career wasn't over (unless she insisted it be over, which apparently she did), and she got her PhD.

And she got her PhD AND got to keep her integrity. So, why's she quitting again?

Like Devin Nunes? Darrel Issa? Dana Rohrabacher? All California Reps and all with odious voting records and near total Trump support.

California is huge and the "California liberal" mythos only applies to certain areas. You can absolutely have a pretty conservative person win the state. Feinstein is arguably the lessor of two evils. She leans right enough to pick up moderates and conservatives but is still socially liberal and liberal-moderate on most issues. Her seat absolutely is at risk of being picked up by someone who will align himself with Trump.

The same way Hillary was a moderate liberal who lost out to people who wouldn't vote for a non-unicorn (Bernie or Bust) candidate while the other side marched lockstep to the voting booth for Trump and won.

>> - They supply you with a low spec charging cable, indistinguishable from a high spec one

>What do you mean? My laptop came with an 87W charger and a cable that works fine with it.

The supplied USB-C cable only supports USB-2 data speeds (480Mbps). If you want to achieve USB-3 or 3.1 speeds (either 5Gbps or 10 Gbps), while still having the full 5A charging current supported by the 87W charger, you need to buy this $12.99 cable from monoprice: https://www.monoprice.com/product?p_id=24285

We're talking a laptop which can be configured between $2500 and $4100 and you need to go buy a better cable for it. I'm sorry but this is not the Apple I used to love.
I think you're right. There are a lot of cranks out there. But history suggests a lot of lone voices who got ruthlessly suppressed while actually being right.

The important bit - to me, at least - is we don't run a witch hunt against the lone voices. If they are right, they should be heard out - if they are wrong, they can ignored. And, if dangerous, they can be no-platformed, etc.

But debts to suppliers and bank loans still get paid first right?

It seems unlikely with someone like Musk at the helm that the company would be wound up before assets (and loans guaranteed on them) didn't pay the salaries. Hence, in the case of liquidation, I can't see bondholders getting any more than shareholders - ie. NILL.

Everywhere else just runs replacement buses at night and it's fine. Yeah ok it's a little slower, but it means you're not running a huge train for five people.
No it doesn't. It means you just charge it to 150 mile range then make sure you charge it before you get down to 50 miles unless you take a long trip. Not a problem if you charge at home every night like most EV owners do (like a cell phone). Most gas car users probably operate in a similar manner already except they don't have the advantage of being able to charge up conveniently at home.

You still have the extra range for longer trips or for contingency, of course.

Other advantages of a large battery: The battery can discharge at a higher power and with more efficiency for the same power. Same for charging.

And yeah, even with the extra weight, you're far ahead. Big battery is the way to go. Charge it like I've described, and the battery will last for 200,000 miles, probably more.

And remember, because you have a big battery, you also can tolerate a LOT more battery degradation. If you have a 200 mile battery initially but only need 100 miles of range, then you might be able to drive the thing, say, 500,000 or more miles before you run against that 100 mile range requirement.
