There was an interesting book recently called "So You've Been Publicly Shamed" by Jon Ronson which explored what happened when the mob mentality doxxed someone, for better or for worse. I think this unfortunate situation is clear evidence that you should avoid publishing your photo, and personal details online, and do all that you can to build a firewall against the casual mob.
I just tried this with my phone and mildly blew my mind, and then realized I could actually see the IR from the remote with my eyes, and am now confused.
+1 for the lols. You seem to be arguing against me for the existence of EULAs. Maybe you're not aware that these have been around and their validity has been debated for decades? Lots of people are super bugged by them, just like you are. I think's it's fairly lame too. I didn't write the EULA, and I don't care if it's a valid contract. But no matter what you say to me, no matter how much sarcasm you use, the fact is that LinkedIn's EULA says that by visiting their site, you are agreeing to their contract.

The real point I was making is that LinkedIn is establishing that they are not offering a public service. It doesn't matter whether you can be bound by their contract, the EULA is more about covering their own asses when they do things like refuse service to HiQ. The wrote the rules so that it's clear what things you can do to get banned. Regardless, they have the right to ban IPs or specific bots or whoever they want, because even though they let anyone access the site, that doesn't mean they have to let everyone access the site always. Like it or not, them's the facts.
Smaller and simpler (written in old Delphi, with some 3rd party packages, so Windows only), nothing else I guess. Lazarus is far superior in every other aspects.
This is no different than vigilante justice and could easily get innocent people in a lot more trouble than it would be worth for a guilty party to walk without being id'd. I sincerely hope the authorities will throw the book at those that go about this in a half assed way and cause actual damage.
In American etiquette, not being rude and pedantic is encouraged ;)
> To those who complain of unfairness, I say "welcome to the world experienced for generations by the very people you now resent because you have to walk in their shoes for a few steps".

I've always had a big problem with this often said bit. It's basically revenge. You're saying "people X were disadvantaged by people Y a long time ago and you are decendants of Y so you should pay."

It's frankly crazy and I can't understand why there is still a small minority of people who actually believe this "revenge for your older generation's mistakes" madness.

> cultivating a culture that at least somewhat reflects your customer base

Bad point. Let's pretend that hiring people on a merit that they are like your customers is a good idea for a sec, then for a lot of tech companies whose customers are more likely white and male, we should hire tonnes of white males! It an invalid reason.

> it is a.) true and b.) vastly underappreciated by many who frequently express their lack of appreciation with statements about "hiring the best person for the job" and the like.

We just established it's most often not true? And any sources for this customer-employee-demographic-matching hypothesis you're claiming is "true"?
I have to admit, I'm coming around to your way of thinking. I have a bunch of Nest smoke alarms and I think I've reached the point where I just want to rip them out. Too many false alarms, too many emails, too much noise, too many "Hi from Nest!" alerts. It's gotten to the point where my dog goes crazy, my daughter seems to have developed anxiety and my neighbours must all hate me ... all for the sake of a smoke alarm.
Your 2 is the easy part: "NP-hard" is exactly the set of problems to which any NP problems can be reduced in polynomial time, and there are many known existing examples, both within NP (aka NP-complete) and outside it.
I was told a story by a Canadian Forces mechanic about how he used a hand drill to do some underwater repairs on a float plane pontoon while in a remote area up North.

I'm not sure if hand powered tools are part of a standard repair kit for the Canadian military or if he was just being extra cautious in including some in his kit, but one can see how they could be useful when working in remote areas without power.
Not in the size department though. The Karma is leagues larger.
So does this ruling essentially outlaw robots.txt? If I only give access to certain users, that's... illegal now? We're calling that a monopoly? How is this reasonable to anyone else?
I feel pretty good about it actually...the stack is looking good at the top at least, even if it's shitty all the way down.
Yeah, the only convenience in this approach is to give you an ability to write JS right inside your Rust code. Somebody already starts implementing VIrtualDOM and something so we can expect more in the future.
LinkedIn is the least interesting (and relevant) of all the social media sites. Most of their job openings have already been filled. They are copies of original job postings somewhere else.
The mongols adopted the best tools of their enemies, they had a complete army that included siege weapons built by chinese siege engineers. They were the first to use artillery in Europe. They conquered far larger and better fortified chinese cities than any piddling castles in Europe.

And you can't trap the mongols, their mobile army lived off the land and moved far too fast with a lethality that european armies couldn't deal with.

The death of Chenggis Khan was the only thing that saved Europe from a massacre and enslavement by the mongols.
And so does latest Gnome on Linux (like Fedora 26)
Sure but if it is hard baked into the distro it is no longer random any more than '4' is random.
> Yes, they can

The judge just said .. no they can't. Until the judge's ruling is overturned. Your statement is incorrect.

And you keep using the phrase "public service" which is not the issue at hand.

A store owner can not dictate who is allowed to read or take pictures of their store window. Effectively the judge was saying that if LinkedIn offers information that does not require a login - LinkedIn can not then tell someone that they can't use the info that is publicly visible.

No mention of "public service" - please stop conflating the two concepts.

We can hope that this case will set a legal precedent, but it may, like the Craigslist case, end in a settlement (or some other disposition) before that point is reached.
No other RAD claiming IDE has the same RAD capabilities as Lazarus or Delphi (or C++ builder), including QT Creator. Live database connection and manipulation while designing your form and data module? Nah, it doesn't even know what a data module is.
It's coming.. I fear this is the end of this terrible moment in our history. Something will happen, and then the mob, be it the right, or the left, but possibly both, will mobilize and people will begin killing one another. A true riot like we've never seen. I am afraid, but resolved that it will likely take death and destruction before society gets a collective slap of sense.
Why not both? Same idea as a plug in hybrid, except the "gas" in this case is presumably greener.
Root level domains are part of DNS. You have to go through a registrar to get listed in a root level domain (.com, .net, etc). So yes, if they block you from registering in a top level domain and you don't have an alternative, you are blocked from DNS, at least the public one.

But there in lies the problem. Private companies don't want the stink of Stormwhatever associated with their name in the press and are more likely to banstick them because profit.

I think the best solution is a public option registrar.
Great. So in a business that makes money primarily by collecting and selling user data, they're now required to give it away for free.
But isn't the data stored on LinkedIn's servers technically owned by LinkedIn? I support this decision in the interest of innovation but hiQ is using data that is physically on LinkedIn's systems and which has been legally acquired by LinkedIn from its users. The term "public data" is a very broad definition and needs to be well defined.
So, how can this be twisted so crawling the Google SERPS is legal?

Young men aren't at a disadvantage at all. They are still greatly advantaged, just to a very slightly lesser degree than before.

It's like a basketball game where a team was ahead by 45 points at the half. Now they are ahead by "only" 25 points, but somehow they are now at a disadvantage? Certainly they aren't winning by as much, but they are still winning by a significant margin.

That's the situation we are in in the tech world.
Why does it need to change? Maybe both men and women are happy in their common jobs? Whatever the reason, nurses seem to choose nursing and programmers choose programming so they all get what they want.

There may be a sub-minority of women who want to be programmers but are discriminated out of it. That's not good but it's surely a tiny fraction of humans. Not worth changing everyone else's job for.
I fear with you but hope that cooler heads will prevail before then. Way too much frustration has been building up it needs some kind of release but I'd rather not see war or civil war. Even a 'true riot' I'd rather avoid.

The problem is that a 'true riot' could easily be the spark that provides the activation energy for a 'true civil war'.

Most of these things are about activation levels being crossed and then there is really almost no way back.
That future isn't here. At my current job, people are encouraged to go out and move their cars when charged, and still they can't be confident there will be a charger available every day. My previous job had none.

If I could drive down the street and replace my electrolyte, neither changing jobs nor moving would suddenly make an electric vehicle unusable.
It's both — it's a feedback loop. Here's a typical couple of days when you're dealing with uncontrolled anxiety:

You feel like shit, that makes you unproductive and slow and dull. End of the day, you didn't get anything done because you stare at your text editor and your brain just refuses to engage in anything but panicking over... something. You get home, Now you still fill like shit the same as before, but also feel like shit over the fact that you didn't get anything done today and and you need to make up for it tomorrow. But then you don't get any proper sleep and you still have to catch and on lost time and you're in for a pretty bad day, but you shouldn't think like that, why are you wallowing in self pity, just get over yourself and get stuff done. But that doesn't really work, oh shit oh shit oh shit thingsarespiralingoutofcontrolwhatdoIdo?

You fall into that trap and now you're proper screwed. Anxiety is causing problems, problems are causing anxiety. The alternative is to learn to cut the second order effect short, which stops the loop. Yes, you had a bad day, and yes, your project is delayed because of it. What's done is done, and you can't fix it, so just accept it. Let people know you're behind schedule, replan if necessary, and move on.

In many ways, breaking that cycle is an exercise in allowing yourself self-compassion without indulging in self-pity.
I do believe big change is coming over the next few years, as we can develop reliable solutions on Web Assembly we're going to be able to use better languages.

It's going to be glorious!

It undoubtedly predates the old testament, which is why it just says "described in the Hebrew Bible" in that Wikipedia link. You can't really invent scavenging leftovers. The rules the old testament added, was to ensure there was something for those, presumably desperate, people to find.

I don't think a civil war is possible.
17% is huge, particularly when you consider it within the context of after tax income. $100k salary is $60k or so after taxes in California; take away $17k + rent and food, and you're getting pretty close to paycheck to paycheck living, particularly if the person has loans from a failed college attempt, medical expenses, etc.

They're essentially asking for $30-$60k or so - which is more than in state tuition for a bachelor's degree in many states. The difference is that a BSc is still widely recognized and accepted and will still be in 10 years (despite what many HNers would like to think), unlike this program, which most certainly won't even exist anymore.
You think that some Song generals wouldn't have defected to the Mongols at some point? The Mongols were famous for their spy craft and intelligence service, and for being able to convert key enemies when necessary.

And calling their tactics "hit and run" is a huge oversimplification, as is the rest of your points.
Neither of the Craigslist cases reached an appellate level. They were only district court decisions, so as I understand it, they only have persuasive value when applied to other cases. The judge in this case mentioned Craigslist v. 3Taps, and apparently was not persuaded by it.
> According to their view,

which the judge didn't agree with. So right now your argument is counterfactual and pointless.
Is the data still Linked In's once it leaves the server though? Hopefully the court will find that the answer is no.
Absolutely not. I never liked math at school. I was bad at it too. But now it's a major part of my career and I love it. I would never have this opportunity if adults had let me just do what I felt like when I was a child.

Children are too young to make decisions for their future. Adults might not always be right but they're better at it than children. That's why school is compulsory, not "if the child feels like going"
Strongly disagree, but we'll see :)

If you serve that data to a client by a simple HTTP request it's publicly accessible. My guess would be that they could claim copyright over all material published on LinkedIn, which they probably do, however the fair use of that copyright would be the question.
That's why it's necessary for government to regulate free markets - to keep them as free as reasonably possible. On the surface, this sounds like a contradiction.

Unfortunately it's also a little too easy to wind up with corporatism or oligarchy when government is afforded too much power to regulate.
Good luck. Another benefit of this strategy is that you optimize that data structure using techniques that aren't available in higher languages. So, for instance, small trees can be set up to have all of the nodes of the tree very close together, improving the odds of a cache hit. You can switch from lots of small strings to having integers that index a lookup table of strings for display only.

The amount of work to do this is insane. Expect 10x what it took to write it in a high level language. But the performance can often be made 10-100x as well. Which is a giant payoff.
Ah, I get it - it's about bioavailability. Thanks for the TIL.
Twitter campaign outing people who marched with white nationalists in Virginia
It's just ridiculous to claim that recharging time is not a huge downside to EVs. If I have to drive more than the range of the car, I've now added hours to my trip instead of the minutes a liquid fuel refill takes.

I often drive more than the range of a Tesla and certainly more than the range of something like a Leaf, which is why I have not considered buying one.
If I even saw that it would be explainable. I see stuff that’s not even close. I’ve held fairly senior roles and I’ll get recommendations to be a junior business analyst in an industry not remotely connected.
Ronson has been pretty clear on Twitter that he doesn't consider this such a case. I believe his thought is that these people are putting themselves out in public in front of a bunch of news cameras. They are intentionally drawing the attention to themselves, so they're not exactly the same cases he points to in the book.

Edit: I found a tweet [1] where he coalesces some of his thoughts to this effect.

I doubt there are many things with a better ROI than sitting still and simply observing your mind for a while.
Great, and I want be a billionaire with washboard abs. The main problem is none of the Python code that currently exists is thread safe so you might as well start again from scratch. Python is a needlessly complicated language with two important things; Numpy and TensorFlow. These use Python as a scripting language for C. Just move to Go, Scala or Elixir/Erlang if you want to avoid the GIL (or write anything parallel). You can thank me later!
Giving away hardware that hackers would love to play with is very different from giving away CD's that can only be alternatively used as drink coasters and for art projects.

That's like saying Math will lose its appeal because there is no algorithm to find prime numbers.

P != NP is natural, you just gotta roll with it.
They seem to be exclusively considering gas giants. A planet made of heavier elements would be much more resistant to fusion at its core (but then would be much heavier as well) - someone more familiar with the numbers could calculate whether this would make the limit higher or lower.
In my case there's no outlet in my carport. And many others in my building only have street parking.

If you buy an electric vehicle, you're committed to always having a private garage, which severely limits your rental options in the future.
Changing the shape of fruit bearing crops may be one of the keys to automated "intelligent" harvesting.

For example, modern olive culture. Regular olives come from a full size tree, people used to (and maybe still do) beat the trees with sticks to get the olives off. But now many olives are grown in low rows that a machine can straddle.

Guessing similar or else some type of espalier is the future of stone fruit culture.
The Karma is controlled via wifi (like the parrot bebop) which limits the range and the image is a bit to distorted imho. It's a good machine but it's no match for the Mavic
Another benefit is that the current electrical grid, especially the residential portions, does not have the capacity to service the nightly recharging of EVs if everyone does it. Using existing liquid fuel infrastructure removes the need to upgrade the electrical grid to handle this demand.

Brief Introduction
Metabolomics (Metabolomics) is a new system of biological technology developed by the post-gene era, aimed at the determination of all small organisms within the metabolites. Compared to Genomics, Transcriptomics and Proteomics, metabolomics directly and accurately reflects the current state of the organism and tell us what happens to the organism instead of predicting what may happen! Metabolomics includes untargeted metabolomics, targeted Metabolomics and next-generation target metabolomics according to their detection of metabolites.
Untargeted metabolomics
It will scan all the small molecule ions (50Da ~ 1200Da) in the sample, and obtain the ion mass spectrum. The metabolites are identified by comparison with the database. The most commonly used analytical platform for untargeted metabolomics is GC-MS. However, GC-MS still is not perfect for metabolomics applications. Such as, GC-MS uses single mass spectrometry and lack of fragment ion information which will lead to many compounds can not be accurately Identification. Besides, there are other platforms can be applied for metabolites analysis: NMR platform and LC-Q-TOF. But untarget metabolomics can only provide the relative abundance of metabolites, not the absolute concentration of metabolites.
Target Metobolomics
The traditional targeted metabolomics can only detect about 10 metabolites with the limitation of instrument conditions. But it has been raid developed with the improvement of instrument technology and become new bright spot for metobolomics. New targeted metabolomics can simultaneously quantify more than 1000 metabolites and reduce the time of post-processing data which can significantly improve the efficiency of metabolomics, making the biomarker screening process become more simple and reliable with less metabolic product verification steps.
The open question for our community is how do we stop young techies from falling into the propaganda of alt-right which is also anti-women (eg. females cannot succeed in programming)?

Here is something for people to read who do not believe that alt-right/nazi is anti-women as well https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/dissecting-trumps-most-...
Features for New Target Metobolomics:
1.More metabolites detection - Different from traditional LC-MS or LC-UV technology, with the new positive and negative conversion technology (Polarity Switch), new target metabolomics can scan up to 1000 metabolites in a period, greatly improving the efficiency of metabolic products at the same time detection.

2.Easy to identify metabolites - A metabolite will be identified by its parent ion, daughter ion, and Collision Energy in Multiple Reaction Monitoring (MRM) technology. Two-step screening before getting into the detecor highly improve the accurancy of methobolites identification.

3.Easy to handle follow-up ioinformatics - New target metobolimics can analyze metabolites without the time-consuming database search and compound identification. And analysis results can be used for multiple comparative analysis, principal component analysis, metabolic pathway analysis and other biological large data processing directly.
