Ya, there are definitely cases where there was no crime (in the moral, not technical sense) even when there is a significant age gap. However, the law has to do its best at splitting the difference, and capturing 'most' of the true crimes here. However, I don't think anyone seriously considers a 15 year old sexting another 15 year old to be engaging in child abuse. We all agree there is no crime there. There is no difference to split, it's just kids playing out their natural urges.

It's what the Be leadership were betting on. They lost that bet and the company folded. Whether they were ever in the running or just deluding themselves I have no special insight into.

BeOS was less production ready but a better multitasking media OS than NeXT. NeXT had a longer history but did take a long time (years!) to get ready for consumer use. Which was a better call is hard to say, even in hindsight.
Shoot. No one has commented? Well, you are far from alone. I can't tell you how many educated,skilled folks I know who are in your same position here in NYC. It isn't getting tons of play here on HN, but getting an interview and an offer seems to be impossible for many of us. And when we do get interviews, we go through a 7 interview process only to discover ( through connections) that the job was not given to anyone in the end, or to the gf of the founder, etc... fill in the blank. Just want you to know you are not alone. Hang in there.

You don't even allow that. I'll use REST as an example because that's what I use, but any form of RPC would work.

App server has no database access. No DB credentials, and no network access to the DB. It does, however, have access to a service that sits in front of the DB. It can ask the service:

GET /users/10

... and that's it. It gets one record. The service fronting the DB has a single query it can execute:

SELECT * FROM users WHERE ID = ?

Sure, if someone can compromise the user-data service, then they have more access. But that's what defense-in-depth is: if an attacker compromises one system of yours, they don't get the crown jewels: they need to keep going, and each new attack they need to mount costs them more, and sometimes even makes them fail.

I want to get a t-shirt that says in block letters, "STALLMAN IS CORRECT".

Scolding on tone aside, the comment by RomanPushkin is also correct:

> FYI, there is no FOSS -- that expression is a misunderstanding. There is the free (libre) software movement, and there is the open source non-movement: two different viewpoints based on different values.

This is very much the literal truth at least in my little world. Stallman's vision and response (the GNU license/weapon) are very much the "alpha and omega" of Free Software. In contrast, the entire "Open Source" non-movement either doesn't get it or doesn't care. From the POV of a free software true believer (Hello there!) there is no point to Open Source.

You're being hyperbolic but we don't allow children to make medical decisions for themselves until the age of majority, and parents can choose to make medical decisions that they know will result in the death of a child (eg refusing treatment for life-threatening diseases due to religious concerns).

So effectively yes, this is already the state of things, and there is no serious movement to restrict this form of post-birth abortion. Who would have imagined that all it would take for abortion to gain acceptance is to frame it as a religious liberty?

How to Become Successful in Your Career? (Part2) Vastu Tips for Career
It depends how you look at it:
1. I would contribute to GCC because it's still "free".
2. I would have contributed to Caddy, but now they are half commercial, so I'm disinclined to provide my "free" to their commercial success.

Most decent people that I know would calmly do the same.

Most leeching off Caddy will send the vitriol to the author. But, they are not his community, now they are his customers.
So you get competitive technologies built in your market with local workforce by foreign companies.
I think the main problem is that the original announcement read more like a ransom note than a press release.

IMO the author doesn't realize how much price factors into tech stack decisions, or how the majority of his users are developers who now have the new responsibility of creating business cases for a piece of software (or scramble to find a replacement) that need to go through approval, or the projects that now have to be delayed to switch around one framework on the back end (I can just see the looks of manager/PM faces everywhere when they get the news from one of their devs).

The tone is another big issue. Flippant phrases like "what's new for personal edition users? Not much" isn't going to get any laughs after talking about mandatory payment. Other times, the disdain for users seeps from the wording (like the passive-aggressive "reminder" that internal apps constitute commercial use).

I'd really encourage the author to go back and re-read that announcement as a user who has taken a gamble on your software and is now invested in it. Yes, this might be a completely necessary move for the survival of Caddy. The necessity, though, doesn't mean you can skip the formalities. Users still need to be sold on the idea.
And to further take this off topic I would like to mention that every church I have been to (mostly Methodist) never even talk about abortion. It just never comes up. Abortion right to life seems to be a favorite topic of some politicians and liberal commentators trying to ostracize Christians.
This provides some good context. People are used to the model of paying for something and the entitlement that comes with it. It's only natural that they would take that default stance when it comes to OSS.

There is a market for his product. Nginx and Apache already own that market. His differentiator is being easy to install. Puppet et. al. solve ease-of-use for large corporations with the budget. The niche that cares about being easy to install is the niche with no money and nobody to pawn it off on. That niche is also passionate and loud.

If he could make some money back for his time, he would already have had a business here.

This business idea is essentially selling pre-made cardboard signs to the homeless. If they have the money, they aren't homeless; if they don't, well, they already make their own signs.

Based on your comment I'm guessing you only read the URL, or perhaps the title, and not the actual column.

Matt Levine does a daily "roundup" style column where he links to and comments on multiple finance-related stories. He did not claim this was an ICO; he simply mentioned this in a daily roundup which included a story about Hedosophia and also a story about ICOs (and in context he was discussing them as two different alternatives to traditional IPOs). Thus, 'ICO' appears in the URL, because the URL is autogenerated from the title, and the title gives a rundown of what he's covering.

I remember having to force myself to set a PIN because it got in the way. I'm sure the idea of a phone that doesn't need any intervention to unlock it has always been the plan.
Users don't need to be sold on the idea. They already bought. This is like buying something with your credit card, happily using it, and then getting upset by the charge on the corporate card at the end of the month. As a competent software professional you know the stakes of using free software.

The professional users will pay for the software they're using, or accept the consequences of the tech decisions they made. Maybe the release wording sucked, but software vendors shouldn't be on the hook to sell you the thing you already bought.
Promise-Based Cache with ReactPHP
It is well thought out. Today, bitcoin is mined on ASICs. GPUs and CPUs do not provide enough processing power, since they are not efficient at this algorithm in comparison to ASICs that are purpose made for this algorithm.
Ask HN: What are the legal downsides of  using ReactJS
Facebook recently came up with a new license.

My understanding is that you're only at jeopardy of losing your license to React if you sue facebook over patent infringement. AKA, facebook implements a feature that you feel infringes on a patent you hold, and you actively sue facebook, then you lose your license.

The overly broad terms are the main problem. I have read across and found it difficult to interpret the clauses.

We thought of migrating to Preact[1] and were advised the following :

what most people don't realize is that at least react contains a patent grant for
react related patents for you. Preact comes with no such guarantees and most likely
infringes a lot of those same patents -- without you having any kind of promise that
facebook won't sue you.

You're more likely to get sued for patents if you use preact (or inferno etc).

What are the general understanding people over here have, in terms of using and not using React JS, not technically but from a legal perspective.

People are not very rational. Almost all trips in cars are very short, yet people are still very concerned about range in electric cars. Being able to cover more exotic driving conditions ("Our cars also work during a severe hurricane") could be a very effective marketing strategy.
You're right.

Monero is different. To mine Monero, you have to calculate hashes with an algorithm called Cryptonight. This algorithm is very compute heavy and – while overall pretty slow – was designed to run well on consumer CPUs.

There are solutions to run the Cryptonight algorithm on a GPU instead, but the benefit is about 2x, not 10000x like for other algorithms used by Bitcoin or Ethereum. This makes Cryptonight a nice target for JavaScript and the Browser.
> BTC isn't made to be mined on consumer machines

That's exactly what it was made for. But the creators had the foresight to adjust the difficulty factor automatically as the hashrate - inevitably - would increase and this means that even though the speed with which GPU, FPGA and later ASIC based mining probably wasn't foreseen it still managed to remain relevant.
This is true. But Darwin acts as a figurehead in many longstanding philosophical discussions. I'm thinking of thinkers like Herbert Spencer, who believed that the structures of darwinian evolution could be applied to cultures, religion, even the mind. When people quote "survival of the fittest" it was Spencer they are quoting, but Darwin they are referencing.

It is also possible to overstate both Darwin's correctness (Pangenesis for example was a non starter) and his novelty (The idea that humans evolved from non-human ancestors that came from the sea is as old as Anaximander -- 600 BCE).

But there is a Darwinian/Spencerian ring to way we talk about failed programming languages, coding practices, failed corporations, technologies and economies: They failed to thrive, failed to form a community to carry forward their genetics and fight against the various forces that fight against them, compete for resources etc. Darwin's ideas have sublimated into ideology...

Ask HN: You have $1BN, how do you disrupt Facebook?
If I you were given a billion dollars to disrupt Facebook, how would you go about it?

Clarification: Your objective is to get enough FB users onto your platform over a 2-3 year time frame that more or less will lead to FB's obsolescence. This is intentionally vague to encourage creativity and also question what it is that keeps FB users on the platform in the first place.
Shallow in the sense that SVMs are not layered, but the layering of a NN is only to enable the humble perceptron (logistic or sigmoid, usually) to model more complex functions. In contrast, the SVM doesn't need to layer, because the kernel can be arbitrarily complex.

I really hope that the devs actions don't become a common occurrence.

If the dev asked YouTube to take down all content that had his games in it I think it would be okay. To target just one user because of a word that he said non maliciously is wrong.

If you take a look at the developer website they explicitly say "it's okay for you to stream our game". http://www.firewatchgame.com/about/#streaming

I think Caddy brought this on themselves by being so heavily marketed and user friendly.

I'll have to clarify right at the top that I have not previously commented about Caddy, and I don't care about one cosmetic header nor the need to compile from source, those sound just fine to me.

Anyway: compare https://caddyserver.com/ to http://nginx.org/ and on the former you'll see way more marketing, logos, testimonials, quickstarts, etc etc ... looks way more like a product than an open-source free-software tool.

I always thought this was a weird trend for open source projects these days. I'm accustomed to debian, gnu make, nginx, apache, samba, cups ... useful tools with zero marketing and support. That's just how it used to work ... and frankly it still seems like it works better that way. A super modern website and easy-as-possible getting started stuff sets the wrong expectations in many many people who are not familiar with this world. They expect to do nothing and get a slick product / solution. They're drawn to the language they're familiar with from startups who get millions in funding and promise the world and then fizzle in a couple of years. That's not sustainable for open source projects.

Open source software is very useful and valuable and democratizing. Just the simplification of no per-user or per-machine or per-anything licensing adds a huge amount of value! The economies of scale of good quality open source software is super high. This stuff is really amazing and effective.

But the support does not scale. This is the one part you have to pay for with your own time. It could take years and years. That's the trade-off. You can't get it all for free, it's not possible.

Yep, we certainly live in strange times when the most useful source for information about certain financial markets is Reddit.

That is truly the case though. Most of the active developers for every client as well as the largest stakeholders in the entire crypto ecosystem are on Reddit.

Nope. They are linking to the sub where the least educated people's voices are still allowed to be heard. The other subreddit has been turned into the very thing Bitcoin was built to destroy.

I hope it's clear that the answer lies somewhere between these two extremes. Most likely, there are instilled a number of prototypical reflexes that quickly make available the "right" decision for a given situation. Consider it that we don't know the objective function per se, but that we start in a place and with a gradient vector already pointed in such a way that we quickly reach the optimal location in action space with relatively few exploratory trials.

Is this your commentary on Social Capital's performance to date, or your general distaste for venture capital?
I'm not sure you fully understand my post. Again, I'm totally willing to go along with Apple's story for a 100% in the way it works. But they're pretty clear in their presentation and marketing that you have to 1) look at your phone and 2) slide to unlock it with your finger.

But this is much slower and are far less flexible than picking your phone out of your pocket, or from anywhere else, with your finger on the sensor. And nobody is mentioning that this is a downgrade.

You see, FaceID is not 100% new. Face unlock existed on the Galaxy Nexus. It also existed in much improved form on the Lumia 950 and Galaxy Note 7. I will 100% grant you that FaceID will be far more accurate still than these implementations. But accuracy is not the issue here: all these methods imply a two step face unlocking ritual, which again is a downgrade over no ritual with a fingerprint scanner.

In the end it seems pretty clear to me that face unlock - in any form - will be far less seamless than finger unlock. It makes your phone slightly less easy to use. Yet Apple seems to be successfully arguing that it's an upgrade or at least an equivalent. But it just can't be, no matter how good their implementation is. That's what I don't get.
