Oh man this takes me back! We used to do this as a practical joke when someone would get up to grab a print out. Except instead of cutesy anime characters we'd put hard core pornography.

What made the joke work even better was that most people didn't know how to reset the desktop background. So you'd watch them squirm for a minute, give up, and finally shutdown the computer.
I don't see what is wrong with this statement? Why the down votes? It's getting to the point where people want to be willfully blind to the truth :(
I didn't see anything about the many benefits that are not typically considered income by the IRS. Most notably, health insurance represents a significant extra cost that makes that 18% advantage look a little smaller. Add in 401K retirement matching and factor in the increased risk and the advantage probably goes away.
It was quite state-of-the-art at the time.

Most of the criticisms you hear about C today (type safety, memory safety, no garbage collection) were criticisms that C got when it was first invented.

In fact there are fewer criticisms of C than there used to be: a lot of the early criticism centered around syntax, but the C syntax kind of won, so you don't hear that anymore.
This looks like a whole lot of work for a 0.0.1 release so I must ask... why might I choose Ice over Flask?
A little unsolicited advice from an old man. There will probably come a day, not too long from now, where you'd rather this were never associated with your real name. It's a fine and interesting thing to try to build it, or maybe even use it on a close friend. But it is very immature. It's probably a turn off to a number of potential employers and collaborators. Maybe enough to matter to you, depending on your current prospects.

By no means is it the worst thing you could make or publicize about yourself. But I don't think, in the grand summation of things, it's a net positive.
There is the Canine Good Citizen test (http://www.akc.org/dog-owners/training/canine-good-citizen/), and the more stringent Community Canine Good Citizen Test (http://www.akc.org/dog-owners/training/akc-community-canine/).

I've used this informally as justification before when renting housing and bringing my dog to work (she's a plain CGC).

I think there's value in having these be more recognized. I especially wish they were by airlines.

Note that this isn't the same thing as the issue with service animals, where credentials are at a totally different standard, and more important than where I can bring my pet.
The "subscribe for updates" modal is extremely distracting. It has a long lag before it repositions at the top of the viewport, at least in my browser.

Ask HN: Which site is the best source for world news?
Is there something like HN but for world events?
Take the course that Unity offers when you purchase a pro subscription. There are a lot of super arbitrary and half-hidden details that you just want to go directly to the source to find out about them. The hardest part is staying awake for it all. The narrators voice is extremely boring and slow. I personally had to set the playback speed to 1.5x just to not fall asleep during the videos.
I'm stymied about parable 99. The nomenclature implies that Mr. Xi knew the basics of encryption. No mention whether the decryption function was provided or previously agreed upon (e.g. "let's agree on GPG").

I think the decryption function or method is the key to answering the question. Am I missing something else?
Did you read the article? Do you know anyone with a service dog? There are lots of non profits dedicated to raising dogs and working with people with disabilities. I suggest you find one and volunteer.

This is a major problem for a small number of people. It's crippling though - This creep towards ESA is both actively impairing the ability of service dogs to work, and passively hurting perceptions.

I'm just summarizing a well reasoned article to you, so please go back and read it again.
Love of product makes total sense to me.

Do the employees use the product? For some companies it's incredibly important, and for others it's a non-starter (usually B2C).

Indeed, doing physical labor all day is also quite terrible for you. My godfather was a farmer in rural Mexico and by his 50s his body was in pretty bad shape.
I strongly think you should add company (or at least engineering org) size to this.
A company that's less than 100 people is very different from a company over 1000, all other values being equal.
I wonder how many of those in this thread wondering "why don't they evacuate?" live in California's earthquake zone.
It has to be a dog, you have to pass it off as a service animal, and you have to do so in a way that meets the CA legal standard for "fraudulent". It's a little silly that there's a specific statute for it (and that it only covers dogs), but it's really just a refinement of the crime of fraud, which most assuredly is a crime in Europe too.
No, using a recruiter is nowhere near the same thing as networking. If you think this, you don't really understand what networking is about.

I've never seen a company where I felt like straight white males (myself being one of them) were excluded due to diversity initiatives. We're still pretty well-represented at even the most staunchly pro-diversity companies.
A brief glance at the source seems to indicate that it only sets the background to https://github.com/builtbyproxy/Weebg/blob/master/weebgRefer... , which seems pretty bland and SFW. Ironically, I've seen worse from the Win10 lockscreen ads...
The fact that there are these other languages with the same properties means that predictability isn't the real reason, right? It's that it also is sparse in its specification and easy to implement a compiler for.
It's not hard to find out; just search "service dog fraud" and [southern state], for instance, to find out that Alabama appears to have no such law, while Texas will fine you for trying to pass off a dog as a service animal (but apparently hasn't done so in a long time).
I think the mental model isn't the issue, it's that the C Standard Library is very anemic. When writing a C application either you're using a big library like APR or GLib or you're rolling your own, and since rolling your own is a pretty big, complicated, and fraught proposition it's no surprise bugs creep in. Furthermore you can't really interop with other libraries if they also rolled their own data structures because theirs probably aren't like yours. Consequently libraries tend not to do that at all, setting for things like NULL-terminated lists and special, opaque data structures.

I feel like if someone wants to throw C a life vest, they should start with a meaningful standard library that engineers can build on to provide functionality we pretty much consider standard now (HTTP libraries, JSON libraries, database libraries) with a consistent interface.

No, the government shouldn't punish you for your views. But personally I sure as hell don't want it near me.

I don't care why you think minimum wages should be low because everywhere it is trash. I don't care what social issue you believe should dominate because every conservative city has trash culture. I can think of a single conservative idea I'd want implement and I think it's a weird cognitive dissonance that you believe that B.S. but would move all the way to the most liberal city in the world instead of one with those stupid ideas.
I believe this feature is much more than that, like if I find a cool article in a page, I can click the native share and Android will put all my group chat rooms first, like slack and telegram groups.
I've also seen signs where the first sign is which sign will be the real one; e.g. 2 1 2 3 Is the #2 pitch.

I've also seen a modification on that where the number of strikes/balls/whatever is added to the first one, so one example would be 2 strikes, 2 1 2 1 3 2 would be the #3 pitch.

That last one is easy to mess up, so might only be used for fast baserunners (A runner might want to steal 3rd on a changeup or curveball - both pitches that are likely to end up close to the ground- , but will not want to try on a high fastball), as the simplest use of sign stealing is for taking 3rd base.

> I took the parent comment to mean that being married itself shouldn't provide any more benefits than just being in a stable, long-term relationship.

Understood. I still think it's fair for the burden of proof to fall on the people trying to explain away current demographic trends. Just because possible mechanisms don't line up with expectations doesn't mean the outcomes aren't actually happening.

And, at some point, there is a distinction without a difference when talking about long-term monogamous cohabitations that do or do not involve a wedding ceremony. In common law, it would be a marriage either way. Maybe the real question is why common law marriages aren't recognized more often now.
Political affiliation and number of laws and regulations aren't obviously correlated. How many red states/cities have the same fines and taxes for grocery bags and improper garbage sorting?
I can believe this. I used to work in "the Warehouse" (store name, rather than what it was). We were told that if there was a fire, particularly in the areas containing mostly plastic, we were to get out as fast as possible, no heroics, no trying to put the fire out: just scram. One of the larger buildings they owned caught fire a few years before I started, and had burned up by the time the fire department got there.
> In my experience, workplaces with alcohol in them tend to focus their work-related happy hours around drinking. As someone who does not drink, I often feel left out of those social activities, and am often actively shamed for not participating.

I also don't drink, and in my (relatively short) experience in the tech industry, the term "social event" almost exclusively refers to events where the primary focus is alcohol. Is this a tech-industry specific thing, or just a thing with "industry" in general?
shrug It doesn't fall over. I've done it, the openBSD team has done it. DJB has done it. Maybe something is wrong with your implementation that I can help you with?
Stop being a pussy? Politely ask for his papers, please, so that the rest of the patronage and dine in peace and in sanitary conditions. I have literally seen a "service dog" TAKE A SHIT ON THE FLOOR NEXT TO DINERS in California. Allowing that does not make a restaurateur a "good guy."

The headline reminds me a little of Troy McLure's educational film "Firecrackers: the Silent Killer".

Which is my roundabout way of saying that anyone considering backyard chickens really ought to know about salmonella already.
While it's nice to think that's actually the case, the legal situation is almost certainly more nuanced. The thing that comes to mind for me is the implicit copyright protection.

I'm not sure if that would apply to a message I sent to you, but it may, and if that's the case, it's "my property", not yours. I'd be interested to know if any case law exists on this. Considering how often the DMCA is abused, I wouldn't be surprised if someone tried a DMCA takedown claiming copyright ownership on an embarrassing e-mail sent to someone and then subsequently posted online.
Pedro had 4 good pitches. I remember reading an article debating which pitcher had the single best season in baseball and Pedro was on there twice: 1999 and 2000.
What about sitting for eight hours straight and then doing a hard workout afterwards? Is that still bad?
Another way of phrasing that is: 1 bit of information. In a very competitive sport.

And yes, there is a long history of this, as the article makes clear; and, as the article also makes clear, rules specifically limit the methods by which such information can be acquired and transmitted, which using an Apple Watch violates. Kind of like how part of the strategy of bridge is efficient use of a well-defined and restricted information channel, and using other methods to transmit the same information is considered cheating.
Furthermore, when people choose to "go online" or "use the Internet" that's a (mostly) conscious decision --- they know, more or less, that what they're doing is actually reaching out to some other machine somewhere else, and adjust their behaviour accordingly.

The related blurring of the distinction between what's local and what's remote, also irritates me greatly. E.g. making one UI search both local file names and contents as well as the Internet.
I mean, I get it, but this is a classic example of a tragedy of the commons. All these "fake" "registrations" (in quotes because registrations aren't required) do is make life even harder for the people who have a true need. And, yes, I'm a dog owner who's genuinely sorry and more than a little pissed off at how landlords operate in hot housing markets but economic need is not a true need. There are hundreds of rentals in Seattle that are off-limits to me because I own a dog and I flatly refuse to pay pet rent so it makes my life a little harder but a companion animal is a privilege, not a right.
I understood it to be using a one time pad for encryption. At the start the "alien" would give an arbitrary sequence of numbers like "2, 4, 6", claiming it's an encrypted solution. Suppose the winning lottery numbers turn out to be "5, 5, 5". The alien then retrospectively generates a one time pad such that Initial Sequence + One Time Pad = Correct Sequence, in this case "3, 1, -1".
> Would anyone advertise a company that doesn't have a "High Quality Codebase"?

I don't know about advertising (and this is a throwaway account) but when we interview candidates, we're clear that our code base has a lot of legacy code and the quality is a mixed bag. We're also clear that while most of our development team wants to improve it, it's a slow process and can only be done in ways that don't slow down feature development.

Developers who are obsessed with code quality have been a mixed bag for us. Several of our best developers are the people who care the most about quality code and push hardest to improve it. On the other hand, we've had people who seem to care a lot about quality, but have no feel for the cost/benefit ratio of any given change, and spend more time complaining about code than actually working on it. The ability to talk about what good code looks like doesn't necessarily translate into the ability to improve flawed code.

> It's not clear what "try" means here.

It's not always possible to satisfy all constraints, they're just very strong suggestions. So "try" means exactly what it does in any other physics engine.

> It would be nice to have a list of exactly which file formats are supported, and have it available on this particular page.

LOVR uses assimp. So it can load anything assimp can. The documentation on that could be better, but it's an open source project; feel free to contribute some cycles.

> they can't claim some sort of open-source ideology driving the decision to not support MP3

Importing assimp takes little to no effort. Importing MP3 means dealing with patents. Not worth it, especially considering it's a terrible format for high quality sound. Think about the implementation details for a second.

> There's no *

Two things: for one, this project seems to only have been running for about a year, as a solo show. I'm sure more features are coming.

The other is that this is modeled after Love2D, the 2D Lua games framework. In Love2D, the same choices were made in terms of not including animations or entities etc., allowing you to use libraries instead. This keeps the framework lightweight, and allows people to choose what library they'd like to use. The design is not purely borne of ignorance.
Describing your ML platform is nice.
Open sourcing it would have been nicer.
One of the major points in the article is that there are no papers, and even if there were, the law doesn't require the owner to explain himself beyond saying what specific task the dog is trained to do.
Read the article -- there is no such thing as "papers" and asking for them is illegal.
I have been thinking of a server vendor for startups company like Sun was trying to do with Schwartz as CEO. Ideally it would use local server manufacturing instead of Chinese ODMs. Of course, not every startup is interested, but 1TB+ RAM and fast SSDs might be attractive to some of them like GitLab.

Only people working would qualify for a loan. Those people would have more prosperity until the robots cratered all wages and prices, being free labor and flooding the market with excess.

When the prices crash a large number of people with robots will be unable to pay back the loan. Their robots will be repossessed. They will now be out of a job and with no robot.

The poor would get left over food from the kindness of people with robots? They'll certainly never work again.
Public service announcement: around a couple percent of people, including me, have pet allergies. These are of varying severity. Mine are apparently worse then average. The consequences of a severe exposure are unpredictable, but can be closer to a catastrophe then a temporary inconvenience. I won’t get into the grisly details, but I have been to ER for this, and my doctor told me to carry an Epipen.

A lot of people don’t know that animal dander persists in the environment after the animal is gone and transfers onto clothing and upholstery. If I get exposed, I will be sick until I take a shower, change my clothes, and then wait several hours. I will get sick in the presence of upholstery or fabric that certain pets have been in contact with, until that material has been washed. Examples include houses, cars, airplanes, all the clothes in your suitcase that are spread around my hotel room, etc. The after-effects of a strong exposure can last for a couple of days (again, I will spare the details).

This is a huge ass pain for me, and I’m doing everything I can to work on it. I get three injections every week, I’m on several drugs, etc. But in spite of all of that, the social problems are worse then the health problems, because people aren’t aware of the issue, and become offended, argumentative, or defensive when I try to escape. I think that people sometimes believe that I am criticizing their pet, their hospitality, or their housekeeping, or that I am irrational or attention seeking.

I have been accused of hypochondria (I’ve given this honest consideration, but several of my dearest family members observe that I accurately detect pet owners in blind tests by becoming sick in the presence of their clothing and effects, without advance knowledge of their pet ownership status; also, my doctor pretty much freaked out about the results of my allergy diagnostics). My friend (an RN) got super pissed when my mom asked her nicely not to bring her dog inside my house. Pet owning friends have argued and interrogated me when I offer my apologies and say I can’t stay for dinner. Last week a really nice lady brought her cute guinea pig to an event and waved it around my face. I had to figure out how to flee without hurting her feelings. I really like animals, and the whole thing sucks, but it’s mostly beyond my control.

Surviving the “pet friendly” workplace is a serious problem when considering employment, and I have yet to muster the courage to be “that guy” who asks to be reseated on an airplane, in a restaurant, or complained in the college tutoring session because someone brought their dog.

I'm totally willing to take one for the team if someone legit needs a seeing eye dog or something. I just wish that my friend who took her “emotional support animal” on the airplane believed that she was, on average, making several people on each flight sick as a trade off. When I told her I had pet allergies, she said she cured hers with mindfulness and meditation. I’m still not totally sure which one of us is superstitious, but I promise, I actually really did like her dog.
To be clear, I'm not saying Chrome's thousands of engineers aren't busy. They're obviously adding literally millions of lines of code that does something. I'm saying the features they're adding are very marginal. All the important stuff was added years ago. 1000 world-class software engineers can help solve some of the world's really important problems, and writing a "web share API" or bringing back web notifications sounds like a tragic waste of their talent.

Generally speaking the left states are also the most authoritarian states. If you can think of it CA probably has a law regulating it and criminalizing failure to comply.

Whether a state is left or right leaning does not have any bearing on whether it is highly authoritarian or not. It just so happens that the general pattern in the US is high population -> lots of laws -> left leaning.

Personally, I would prefer to work exclusively with those who value meritocracy more because diversity proponents are very often believers in the ideology of perpetual victimhood. As such they are always in conflict with everyone and generally suck the joy out of life. I find them intolerable and want to keep them as far away from me as possible.
The liking and hiding emphasis features are trivial. They hardly matter. If Facebook's post emphasis algorithm was entirely random, very nuanced or specifically malevolent it wouldn't matter.

Only follow people whose posts you find enjoyable and you will find Facebook enjoyable. This is entirely up to you. If you stop enjoying someone's posts, you unfollow them.

Guaranteed 100% success rate. It's not difficult or tricky. There's no gotcha, there's no fee. Most people can figure this out. I'm not sure why this isn't intuitive for the OP or yourself.
Some people don't like dogs. Some are scared of them. Some are allergic to them (like me). Yes it is a problem if everyone starts bringing their dogs everywhere made for people. I don't see anyone trying to bring their horse, cat, pig, etc with them everywhere. Honestly it is really bizarre to me that this is becoming a thing/problem.

If you have an actual disability and need a dog, that trumps my need to not feel sick. But to bring the dog just because he/she is your buddy? I say stop being so selfish.
Well, it's what the law says. And when you think about it, aren't all pet dogs (not working dogs) emotional support animals, in a way? They're man's best friend, why else do people keep them? The rationalization is not difficult.
