Assuming you are on a proper OS, it comes with your distribution, e.g. via Ubuntu it's just

$ apt install joe

And it's ready (obviously you might want to configure it differently than the default).
this is let's say not great advice, and that is being friendly;-)

url: [scheme: "https", host: "mysterious-meadow-6277.herokuapp.com", port: 443],
force_ssl: [rewrite_on: [:x_forwarded_proto]]

means that if you accessing the server over http it will redirect to the specified host and over https, so setting host: to you yourdomain.com would solve it.

If you have multiple domains you can remove the host: config or do a host: nil - then it will redirect to https for whateverdomain.com that is hitting the server.

all the best
In 1999, Qwest had a 30-second commercial that seemed incredibly futuristic at the time, talking about a hotel where "every room has every movie ever made in every language anytime day or night" and it seemed impossibly futuristic.

Not 20 years later, the technology for this is already well-established; the only thing stopping it is that the owners of the films don't want to make them available this way.

Let not the perfect be the enemy of the good though.

Every time I hear someone asking for some improvement in openness and security, someone jumps in to point out how something else will circumvent it. Fine -- but how is anything going to get done if we sit paralysed a proliferation of worries?
I just noticed the Weird Tales scans the other day. I was mainly looking for Robert E Howard stories but there are lots of other good things in them as well.
> I see flags, especially when they are abused, as indicators that having a high-quality discussion is going to be next to impossible. If people are going to use one tool (flags) poorly, it's likely they will use a more powerful tool (comments) poorly.

Flags are the more powerful tool. A single flag is the equivalent of many upvotes and annihilates the whole discussion. That's a lot more power than a comment, which can be dealt with on an individual basis.
How Netflix Got Started
Just for reference, I average about 4.5 mile/kWh in my Leaf.
It being Disney we are talking about, you know they'll put some movies in the "vault" for a few years.
Many interesting points -

But I want to note - If 10-15 years ago a person said the government records all data going through the internet, that person would be labeled a conspiracy theorist. While technically correct to use this label for this person, I think the emotions associated with the term are not entirely warranted.
Totally depends on the deal.

I was once offered a job with a good, but not great, salary in a geographic region that was lite on IT jobs to which I would have to move.

The plan was for them to sell to a larger company in 2 years at which point any sane buyer would move this remote facility to their HQ.

Based on my equity and they're target sale price I would gross 40k from the sale, IF it ever happened.

No thanks. Maybe 20X that would have made it worth while since I'd be losing about 100k a year in total compensation.
I find it rather sad that, before writing this comment I had to reconsider what I wanted to say , because, as a young engineer, I am worried how my opinions will effect my job prospects.

When I am afraid to say what I believe, for fear or ramifications, it flies directly in the face of what Google and others profess to trying to do: 'create a work environment in which all people, regardless of political affliation, opinion, or creed feels safe.'

The worst part for me, is that many in the valley (particularly on university campuses like Stanford's) have used the disguise of promoting diversity to battle ideas they disagree with. There is not enough emphasis on diversity of ideas.
Why not just become a netflix addon? e.g. an additional price (a few $/mo) to go through netflix instead of hosting their own streaming hardware?
Ya, this isn't really about Disney content. It is whether you want to be able to stream Star Wars, and get access to exclusive Star Wars content. Marvel too. But Star Wars.
"Nah, it's fine."

Yeah, I don't see the problem either.

In fact, I don't understand why companies don't just install long airplane style seating rows in their open office plans and have everyone work from laptops literally on their laps... that way we'd be able to cram even more people in the same space, and just think about all the useful socializing and spontaneous conversations that would occur as co-workers were climbing over each other to head for the restrooms.

Great to see FF continue to progress. I moved back to FF from Chrome when I ditched a Win7 install for Ubuntu after building a new computer. It hasn't been without issue, but I'm enjoying FF and very happy to see it evolve.

If it continues through beta just fine, looks like media.block-autoplay-until-in-foreground will finally ship [0]. This is something I've been tracking through [1] since it was called out in the 54 release notes although it was not actually released. I was always a bit surprised that this wasn't the default behavior as it was in Chrome. Major use case for me: queuing up several YouTube videos from either search results or directly through the list of a users videos.

[2] "Firefox Fights Back: Inside Mozilla, CEO Chris Beard and his team are preparing to outmaneuver Google’s Chrome browser" is linked from the submitted article and looks like an interesting read. Only got a few comments on HN when it was submitted 5 days ago.

If you've ever tried the NFL's streaming service ... it usually works, but rarely without regularly dropping down to miniscule, unwatchable bitrates.

Games regularly fail to load with the message "This game is not-yet available, check bat at time X" where X is several hours in the past. Complaining on twitter usually gets someone to fix those issues though (whatever you do don't try going through the "support" link, you'll get a response something like 2 days later).
justwatch doesn't do anything but aggregate affiliate links.
You could also just buy* seasons on Amazon/iTunes/Google/whatever of only the shows you want and stream them to the store app on whatever devices you have. If you're only interested in a few shows a year than that gets you potentially price-competitive with Netflix+whatever else, and you don't have to worry about when Netflix loses the rights.

* the common complaint here is DRM, long-term-ownership compared to DVD, but the flip side is much better resolution than DVD and if the competition is streaming services, it puts you in much more control than that.
I have an Apple TV and I have to switch from it to the TV to get Amazon because Apple and Amazon won't play nice together.
Okay Disney, I'll brush of my bittorrent client.
I really wanted to give Atom a chance since it gets stuff like ligatures right, but I find its slow startup speed to be a no-go. I simply find in Sublime a much stabler experience and faster startup time, which makes it feel more productive.
> If it gets noisy, put on headphones

Headphones only go so far. If you don't have good headphones (or, gasp can't afford good headphones, or don't have the time or money to shop around for good headphones), then you end up with a band-aid that doesn't really work because... well noise bleed is real. You either still hear what's happening around you or the people around you can hear your music. So they talk louder, because they need to make sure they're heard by whoever they're talking to. They don't stop the distraction of someone walking by. They don't stop someone from trying to start a whimsical conversation just because they walked by you.
In 2004, my cable budget was $160/mo in a bundle. Now it is $100/mo for a half-gigabit internet connection.

I'd have to sign up for 6 different services in order to add up to my previous budget. So far... its' not come to that point, but if it does I'll be happy to cut out some services.

After all do I really need Netflix? I don't watch if for months at a time, and only keep it out of laziness. I'll happily cut it and swap in Disney for that time period of budget constraints become an issue.
When I read the headline I thought it would be a link to Dan Luu's recent post [1]. Not too surprising that it was actually submitted by him!

The most amazing part of this is the JOE editor. Performance and memory aside, I'm astounded it has been maintained by the same person since 1988! [2]

Hmm, I was going to say it was LaTeX, and that for all it's strengths, it always did strange things with boxes interacting with pagebreaks.

But there's nothing so bad that publisher's addon packages, and standards can't make worse.
Speaking of that, it's curious that there isn't a piracy version of Steam that integrates with tor, torrents and such.

How bizarre and awesome (in the way stuxnet was awesome tech but not exactly well meant one) of a concept would that be? And the outcry of the triple A industry, wow.

There is LaunchBox for emulators and DOSBox but that's it.. and it just downloads the metadata, not the emulators and ROMs themselves.
I think you greatly underestimate two things:

1. The shear volume of non-film media, particularly shows directed at kids and pre-teens, that Disney controls

2. The ability of kids to literally watch the same thing over and over again
Ask HN: Failed co-founders what made you happy next
i read a book once that we don't know what will make us happy but one good datapoint is to talk to people who have been in that situation.

i'm an early-30s co-founder of a midwest startup that is a little over 5 years old and is going to fail in the next 6 months, i'm afraid. i learned a lot, especially business-wise during my tenure and also technically.. but 5 years seems like a long time since my previous 2-year successful exit.

i think i can tickle my contacts, whom of which i have many, and find something new. But i'm very sad at the idea of this huge failure. Those of you that have been through this ...and others also- what things made you happy after the end of the failed business?

Sorry for the throwaway, had to obscure for obvious reasons ;-P
For me, its not just about the sound. I can easily lose focus by being visually over-stimulated too, and there's no way to fix that except for cubicles.
> ...let the developers choose the work...

This is much better advice than the whole article.

The article seems to be conveying vaguely that developers want advancement, interesting problems, etc. The problem with this phrasing is that it makes a manager think about placation strategies.

The root cause of the above is just poor tasking. If a senior developer says things need attention and keeps getting ignored, then how senior is the developer, really?

The advancement, engagement, product ownership, etc. all grow from a culture where strategic technical priorities aren't ultimately valued.

This looks like boredom or angst about "career progression" but you don't solve the problem by adding whiz-bang tech (gratuitous ML) or meaningless job titles.
More broadly, Netflix has had 3 distinct business models in its lifetime: disk rental, streaming other peoples' content, and now, streaming its own first-party content.
boohoo.
That was not one of NASA's findings. It was the finding of a paid "expert".
I’d actually suggest the opposite. It’s much less nerdy than say VIM or emacs, and is easy enough to use. I don’t know of any text editor that doesn’t require hours of investment (or a slow trickle over months/years), and I don’t think it’s even really possible unless you use something like Xcode that is just so constrained (and even then you’ll remap keyboard shortcuts, etc). Text editors are a key part of people’s workflow, and everyone will have different needs or have been “brought up” in a certain style/configuration. Some are more mouse based, others are more keyboard driven, some require a certain toolbox, others are more basic in needs. Then add in different languages, project complexity, version control, project management software and styles... there’s too much diversity out there to have a one-size-fits-all approach.

Is there a measurable performance impact caused by the 100 kb library size?
It's on the employee to prove that the company fired them illegally. For example, if the employee had an email showing that their boss said "I hate X because he's black" then the employee would probably win.
Back in the late 80's, I ran across a statistic that just the amount amount the military spent supporting its bands was as large as the entire budget for NPR. I think this is also covered in Manufacturing Consent. I remember flipping channels as a grade schooler and running across US military propaganda on the nearest independent TV station. (Which is now Fox, unfortunately. Sad, because this is the station that introduced me to anime.) That stuff gave me nightmares! An 80's era Soviet land assault is basically some nightmare perfection of the Blitzkreig. The whole horizon turns black and rolls at you like a wave, as rank after rank of smoke generating tanks charges you at high speed.
Sadly, I'm still looking for headphones that can be comfortably worn over my ears + glasses for more than an hour at a time. In-ear ones have other comfort issues.
Instead of everything being a white rectangle, make the shapes meaningful representations of what's written inside them. Perhaps include logos or little icons.

Varying colors in a meaningful way can also be helpful.
That's some fine sarcasm you've got there. That said, there are apparently people defending this opinion.
Let's not forget the constant awkward fleeting moments of eye contact with someone you barely know and don't wish to talk to.
I am very curious how much money the broadcasters are making with this strategy, and how much money the leagues or ESPN are letting on the table by just allowing this to happen.

Football(soccer for Americans) is definitely the worst offender here, I know it is much more difficult to package and sell these streams because leagues are so fragmented, but if FIFA could use their weight to pull it off it would be gigantic(hell, even if it's just UEFA).

As an expat, I find it absurd it is impossible to get a legal stream to watch my home league, even UEFA champions league streaming is hard enough to get.
Of all the things the author mentions as being propped up by political correctness, this:

> Capitalism is the best economic system

sticks out like a sore thumb. I thought progressivism was more of a market socialism type affair? A disproportionate number of diversity quota advocates are open socialists or communists.
I feel you, but as someone who's in the earlier part of my career, it's honestly not that bad once you learn more about the contours of how it works. There are plenty of people like us who weren't stupid enough to buy into "ignore your capacity for rational thought, believe this by fiat"; they just know not to talk about it in case the person they're talking with is one of the dumb ones.

If anything, IME watching people fall into this trap is a pretty reliably useful indicator of someone's intelligence. I tried it the last few days with a handful of people with whom I'd never discussed politics: "Did you hear about that Google manifesto thing?". I tried it with 8 different people both at and outside of work, and every single time, the people who were uncritically outraged were the ones who I already knew were pretty stupid. Not a single person that I already knew was intelligent had this kind of wild-eyed negative reaction to a guy saying "maybe we shouldn't assume that differences in the employee population aren't due to differences in the input population".

FWIW, my personal best guess is that what biological differences there may be between men and women aren't sufficient to explain the tech gender gap. I just think that it's fucking insane to pretend that the science has conclusively shown that there are no such differences and to attack a guy who dares mention them. The notion that scientists can talk freely about something but laymen can't scares the shit out of me.
RIP July 5th when no one came into the office. I'll miss you till next year.
It's not though. Identifying as something doesn't mean others recognize you as being part of that group (ex. Ahmadiyya).

Also, secular Muslims probably aren't the target demographic of this app, just like secular Christians likely won't be on Christian Mingle...
And yet, you can't play apple music on a fire stick, and you can't play amazon music on an apple tv....

>I think what the GP meant is that if you're a young white guy

I know what he meant. I know what you mean as well. This isn't a substantive conversation on the issue. You and OP are not putting forward a cogent argument to support a position. You're making an appeal to emotion and valuing an opinion based on the skin color and gender of the person that argued it - not on its own merits.

>It looks like a much more personal attack.

And what does what you are doing look like to you?
I said western-world families. That amount is chump change to most of them, considering how expensive it is to raise a family. Nostalgia + keeping their kids busy = priceless.
Theoretically it could uncover where some managers are undervaluing good ideas or good technical leadership.

I don't imagine people up the chai hear when good ideas are back-burnered too long or technical debt is ignored.
In your main file, you should hoist your require clauses into your ns declaration.

e.g.

(ns simple-editor.core
(:require [clojure.string :as str]
[lanterna.terminal :as t]
[taoensso.encore :as encore]))
Yes! Depends on the company of course but if you have a decent amount of equity it could be profitable for you. And sales don't always mean you're out a job either.

Of course it's a gamble since the company might not be worth anything..
If that's what your looking for, it seems like you can get it from dozens of places like iTunes, Google Play, Amazon Video, etc.
The world is spinning too fast

(this is awesome, great job)
This analysis cleared up a mystery for me. I've noticed that when a server app is under heavy load in Linux, the load average goes high if the bottleneck is the CPU or the disk, but the load average goes low if the bottleneck is network resources (like databases or microservice calls). I know why that happens, but it's very unintuitive and it confused me when I was new to Linux. I thought load average would measure the CPU load only. Now I know the historical reasons for measuring system load instead of CPU load.

I kind of like it the way it is since it's handy to be able to distinguish network load from CPU+disk load just by looking at the load average. However, since the load average includes other stuff as well, sometimes I still don't know what the load average really means.
Could it be that our traditional models of motion and light propagation in extremely distant, never visited places are extrapolations in error?

It seems most astronomy theoreticians will rather not rock the boat, they will rather keep believing in invisible stuff permeating space everywhere with variable but exactly right density so it is consistent with star motions and images observed. I guess it's because stuff with infinity of degrees of freedom is traditionally much more secure paradigm to base a career on than to question the established beliefs in applicability of Newtonian mechanics/General relativity.

> "The only theory that has withstood the last several decades of experimental observation and simulation"

Which competing theories were put to stand the test of observation? What made them not stand well in light of observations?

> "It's the only thing that explains all the evidence"

There is little example to such a thing as scientific theory explaining all the evidence. But even if dark matter paradigm did do such a feat, it would not be a good sign for the truthfulness of it. Theories that explain everything are suspicious - they may be exercises in fitting and may not be so scientific or useful as competing theories that explain less, but better.
If short term thinking, externalizing costs and psychopathology would not exist, maybe. But not as is.
Why not actually try it? Write a timing attack.

I've done it before, against a server that deliberately had a vulnerability left on it.

A super-naive approach with no statistical rigor managed to produce usable results at a slow-but-practical rate. Improved technique would have made it faster and less noisy.

The big realization you quickly make is that partial accuracy is good enough to in a vast majority of cases. Sure, 100% accuracy is hard. But 50% accuracy is both surprisingly easy and surprisingly powerful.
Oh I dunno.... back in the day, there was Texmate, and it was like a pretty Emacs. Then came Sublime, Coda and Espresso. That was an era of pretty text editors. I was used to vim, so all that beauty didn't really entice me. When Atom first was announced, I just figured it was another Sublime copy. I had no idea what Electron was at that time. I just thought... hmm, an editor from GitHub... ok... I'm sure there's some reason for it to exist. But from my perspective, it wasn't competing with other javascript/browser-in-a-box editors... it was just another in a long line.
To equate a susceptibility to addiction with immaturity is a severe error which will prevent you from ever dealing with addiction, in yourself or others, in a rational and realistic fashion. It is not about moral character, or immaturity, or lack of Godliness. It is a disease process with roots in biology and genetics.

Also, everyone is susceptible to manipulation of their dopamine reward system, no matter how robust. The impact of effect varies from person to person.
Why do you assume the men being hired are more qualified than the women who were passed over?

The hiring process is subjective, not fair. There is extensive evidence that just having a name that is assumed to be female makes a candidate less likely to get hired. Without diversity programs, less qualified men are hired over more qualified women, producing the skewed results we observe.

Women are on average more qualified than the men in the same jobs they hold because of these social forces, so your assumptions make you particularly systematically wrong.
Banning SOME of the people that were trying to attend the event.

Im dodging nothing. I have no expertise on any of this, so I can't possibly have an informed opinion. But if I'm listening to people who claim to have such opinions weigh various plans and they never once mention the North Korean people, I can reasonably infer they don't much care about them. Given that the North Korean probably fare better under military intervention, I suspect that military intervention is a better option than most people think.
