Belly buttons will always be "belly b's" in my house and even when our little boys are grown and gone, I'm quite sure we will always remember Belly Button Beach, "where tons of hippos stand around in bathing suits too little, in hopes that you will admire the button on their middle".

My little sister has been telling me "Hippo birdee!" on every birthday since we were in elementary school and even in our forties, she still posts it to my Facebook wall reliably every year.

These cartoon friends are a treasured piece of my childhood and now part of my kids', too. It's fitting that Ms. Boynton stayed true to her creations and that we don't see Boynton moose and chickens on McDonalds cups and other low-grade junk.
I would prefer to only have 3 “users”. Personal, Work and Guest. The Guest account would have access to a list of apps that I have installed but would not share my history and data. For example I do not want my wife’s YouTube history mixed with mine.

I think that setting up multiple accounts would make the experience worse as I don’t want other people to get too comfy. On an iPad that is a different case though.

> Google arbitrarily decided it was #extremism, therefore #banned

It is extremism. What makes a difference is the people's intention of uploading it. But it is not clearly to me, whether it makes a difference or not, if that video's targeting audience see this video and use it as an inspiration to commit terrorism.

> Google is on a crusade to demonitize any video it doesn't like

I am going to be a devil's advocate, make money out of a platform is not freedom of speech, or freedom of expression. That is why I cringed every time when some Youtuber acts like cry baby that certain video is demonetize crying no freedom of speech while that video is not blocked and had a million views.
> So you can have someone who earns a $100,000 salary and gets a $500,000 bonus on December 31st. The bonus goes into the corporation and has a full year until November 30th before the tax is due.

How do you put "the bonus into the corporation"?
Eh... The prosecution claims, and the judge believes, that they have a list of files they expect to find on the drive. If he gives them a password and those files don't appear, the judge will conclude he gave them the wrong password, and he will stay put until the right password is produced.
"JSR (Batch/JSR-352) was particularly disgusting"

Good grief. Another mountain of XML programming. It's like the last 10+ years of software engineering never happened.

I believe humans are smart enough to filter and learn as they go. We are a resilient species. We will adapt and grow, it is as it always was.
> and that there is no due process or other recourse for the owner.

This is simply incorrect as a matter of fact, both known and unknown parties who own or have a cognizable interest other than ownership in the property subject to forfeiture proceedings are due certain process, including notice (direct for known parties, public to address the unknown) and opportunity to participate in proceedings.

As usual in a civil case, the government as plaintiff bears the burden of proof for forfeiture, as well.

No need to do an investigation, it had been raised by people who were upset by the action years earlier.

They did, years earlier.

It's interpreted because the instructions are fetched one by one. A piano roll is intepreted, even though its holes just activate keys with a "horizontal encoding". It is interpreted because it moves through the piano, and a little piece of it activates a behavior any one time, without leaving a permanent record.

Here's what Samsung has to say about the feature

>The Galaxy S8 provides various levels of biometric authentication, with the highest level of authentication from the iris scanner and fingerprint reader. In addition, the Galaxy S8 provides users with multiple options to unlock their phones through both biometric security options, and convenient options such as swipe and facial recognition. It is important to reiterate that facial recognition, while convenient, can only be used for opening your Galaxy S8 and currently cannot be used to authenticate access to Samsung Pay or Secure Folder.

Not exactly a vote of confidence from the manufacturer, is it?
It's not about "realism" or even style, it's more about preserving detail in extreme contrast. All pixels brighter than a certain threshold become white and since there's nothing whiter than white, they're all the same with information lost. This is basically HDR (no idea why the "Filmic Color Management" phrase is necessary), as it has been common, even in real-time rendering and digital photography for years. I suppose they implemented it in a smarter way? The basic idea is to expose at different levels and combine the parts that preserve the most detail.
Well since you asked, no, I would not expect something else. Their (your) addiction has affected the organ that they use for making decisions. I would expect an addict to find any way he or she can to find access to more of the addictive substance their now compromised brain demands. Being smart or high functioning only means they can find even more clever and inventive ways of achieving their desires.

You say that the vast majority of harm comes from the illegality of drug use. I don't see any reason to believe that is true. You haven't presented an argument or evidence to persuade me one way or the other. On the contrary, I think addiction is itself harm. It removes the ability to choose.

It attacks the very organ that makes your choices.

You have access to resource, so you can mitigate the consequences of your actions more than others. Remove your resource, or replace it with a $40,000/year salary and a tough service industry job, and the consequences will find you. I think eventually the consequences will find even you, however much resource you have amassed. You should make a pact with yourself to see if in 20 years (assuming you make it that long) you still think your life is as good as it could have been without your addiction.

Do I want to reduce harm or impose my morality on other people?

My answer is YES.

I want to reduce harm by imposing my morality on other people. Any time you vote you are imposing your views on ethical issues onto society. Let's all agree that everyone imposes their own views on morality onto others. You are doing it to me right now, and for that I thank you. Let's duke it out in the public square. If you convince more people with your arguments, your views will be codified into law. If I convince more people with my arguments, then my views will be codified into law. This form of reasonable discourse is how we avoid solving our issues with violence.

Forfeiture cases are not without trial, where there is a party with interest in the property contesting the forfeiture.
It does have built in type definitions for React, where as all other libraries you probably need to use flow-typed (similar to definitely-typed in TypeScript).

So it does kind of have React integration, but it's pretty loose - you can use it with any other framework, and there's nothing obviously React-specific about the language.

Edit: See https://flow.org/en/docs/react/types/
You mean like movie stars? We've had at least four generations now obsessed with movie stars. It's also been the century of greatest achievement for humankind.

Just replace Youtube Star with Movie star. At least growing up in LA, lots of my friends wanted to be movie stars and rock stars. Some of them actually are now.

I have 5 friends within a 1 mile radius of me that all have a fitbit and love it. Only one of them had one fail and have to be replaced (earlier model that had issues with heavy sweat and the waterproofing).

Maybe you use the additional features, and that's great. None of us want to make or take calls on a watch (and not-so-secretly loath anyone who does so on the subway).

I like the way I interact with the fitbit. One quick pulse when I get a notification I want to come through. And the screen stays off unless I press the button to see what it is. No constant stream of useless stuff on the screen on my wrist distracting me and those around me.
Thanks for that. I thought I might actually need to click on the article :)
For anyone interested in a similar talk: DHH's talk from Rails Conf on what he thinks people should think of when choosing tools. (Also, the Rails Doctrine) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cx6aGMC6MjU
My impression is that the states who argue for small federal government, and for solving problems locally, seem to also prefer private sector solutions over government services (state and federal). So, the choice is not really between federal or state government, but between government and no government. And secondly, things like healthcare are expensive. Making it the sole responsibility of the states means that poor states will get poor healthcare. That is one reason all developed countries have some form of government provided or regulated healthcare system.
Ever wait on Verizon's phone help line? I've never had an issue resolved in under 3 hours.
The whole thing may not need to be banned outright, from what I gather it was specifically the enactment of "equitable sharing" in the 70's that constructed the perverse incentives we have today.
Yeah you're right, sorry said the wrong one (t2.micro) it's funny when you look at it, it seems cheap like $0.012/hr but you multiply that by 750 and yeah... I briefly went up to t2.medium and I was like damn $30/mo for a server, that's a lot (to me).

OVH has nicer prices for roughly same specs eg. 2cores 8GB ram at I think $16/mo but that detachable/scalable is really nice without data loss on server configs.

Yeah good point about the year, I was surprised when I was charged the $99.99 for Amazon Prime haha
We use RedGate for MSSQL. It's not the best.
I actually think it's disappointing that the SE has it's own release schedule. I simply want a small phone with the same high end internals, but I'm not willing to wait and see if a new SE will come in spring. By that time it almost makes sense to wait for the next iPhone...and probably repeat this thought process.

The SE should be part of the yearly refresh.
As a matter of fact, the fact we consider babies human is a progressive evolution in human history. In ancient Greece for example, children were considered property of their father till the age of puberty, who could dispose of them (including of their life) the way he wishes.

Ask HN: How do you handle mongodb migrations?
So you wrote your app with mongodb and went live. Maybe some small changes to db structure aren't that big of a deal but eventually, you need to migrate data.

No. All that it is is common heritage in the BIND DNS client library whose doco this is. It is a widely used DNS client library that has made it into numerous operating system's C libraries, from Solaris through GNU libc to OS/2. The manual pages for that library have spread along with it.

* https://www.isc.org/downloads/libbind/

* http://wiki.netbsd.org/individual-software-releases/netresol...

* https://sourceware.org/git/?p=glibc.git;a=blob;f=resolv/READ...

One can even trace its spread from, say, 386BSD through NetBSD to OpenBSD.

* https://github.com/NetBSD/src/blob/516da8a02fc8bc10555ed9acd...

* https://github.com/openbsd/src/blob/df930be708d50e9715f173ca...

Manual pages are not standards, not specifications, but implementation documentation. As Chuck McManis said in this very discussion, to misuse them as standards or specifications is to mistakenly treat implementation as architecture.

The BIND DNS client library is far from the only DNS client library in existence. Other DNS client libraries read /etc/resolv.conf, as part of a BIND DNS client compatibility shim or otherwise. They do not have the same implementation details as the BIND DNS client; they do not all have the same access patterns as the BIND DNS client. Indeed, as I have mentioned elsewhere in this very discussion, even other tools from the same origin, namely nslookup, read /etc/resolv.conf and have different access patterns.

There is not a single common conventional, let alone standard, behaviour to rely upon.
Isn't it though? It's the "password" to the secure enclave which then provides a "password" to the OS.

Edit: I agree with your statement that "a password is something i can change if it gets compromised. a password is secure from others." Which is why I like that there is a method for disabling TouchID/FaceID with iOS 11.
Actually I think the map shows the dominant dialect/accent, it doesn't deny the existence of others. The entire west half of the continent is one color, but off the top of my head I know at least five distinct accents you can find among white people here. My grandmothers we're both born and raised in Washington state and had distinctly different speech patterns. My father's mother's accent was almost British, but I can clearly remember my mother's mother talking about "worshing" up or going down to the "crick".

What was the rationale provided for the expansion of forfeiture this vote rolls back? I'm guessing it wasn't "we need to be able to steal"?
This is awesome. CDI, JAXRS, JPA, JTA, and JMS are brilliant technologies but are held down by the weight of legacy technologies. Maybe we can finally see Java EE based solely on CDI, which would kick every platform out of the water. Scopes take dependency injection to the next level and finally fulfills the promise of modular, testable, reusable code.

HOW AUGMENTED REALITY AND VIRTUAL REALITY HELP IN BRANDING
Yes, why not? As I maintan a data driven, static content web page generator, I keep thinking in terms of LISP functions. LISP, with its stateless and functional approach appears to be the right tool for the job. Why not LISP, indeed?

With that written, LISP does have one huge barrier to entry: lack of documentation. For example, I've been trying to figure out how to use the getopt LISP library in Clozure LISP (it's the only LISP which works on my OS) and there is no documentation nor examples; the best I was able to come up with was "look at the source". Being forced to reverse engineer isn't good for adoption. That needs fixed!

What checks exist to prevent police from planting a USB hard drive on an enemy of the state that's encrypted and then claiming the defendant won't decrypt the hard drive?

Finally the ubershader! If anyone visually inclined wants some serious head candy I warmly recommend buying 3DCoat and using that for texturing and Blender for rendering (and modeling) Once you know how to model it's astounding how fast you can turn shit from your imagination into something photorealistic. It's almost like magic nowadays... You need a beefy GPU to thoroughly enjoy it or lots of cores, though, to tune the lighting in real time.

It's sculpting and miniature painting and photographing and it's such fun!
Because both fight for the same audience: everybody. Whoever wins the game for everybody will beat the other and move it to a side corner. A little like FB and G+. Do you know anybody on G+? So even if it's better for 1:1 you can't use it, because the other 1 is not on G+.

And currently it looks like everybody's betting on Instagram killing Snapchat in that battle.

Do you have reason to doubt that Apple did not do all of this or even more? In the end we’ll see but one indicator is that the banks at least let them use Apple Pay with FaceId. I am guessing here but I suppose they will still get the “card present” tarifs and if I recall correctly that was tied to the fact that banks deemed TouchId a sufficient form of authentication.

The FAR rate is quite misleading especially for facial recognition. FAR counts on the data being "random" for that 1:50,000 or 1:1 million to be true. But you can bet whoever is targeting you will build a 3D profile of your face out of all the pictures it can find on you online. I at least assume it won't be "easy" from the get go to bypass Apple's face unlock tech, like it was for the Galaxy S8 with a god damn 2D picture that we've been known for a decade that's an effective attack, but I also don't think it's impossible. Machine learning techniques will become advanced enough in a few years to build someone's 3D profile like that.

Plus, as the parent said on the issue of not being able to replace your face as you can your password, they can still target your face data stored on the phone.
