T420 would be ok if you can check that it should run docker. That would allow you to use or test many stacks without installs and deploy them to a bigger machine if needed. For a cheap option I recommend the Dell Inspiron 15 3000 Series with Ubuntu preinstalled instead of Windows. It is a Celeron processor and the 14.04 version of Ubuntu but it runs docker great. Also Ubuntu really looks better at the lower resolution which it most of been originally designed for. I got one new for €200.
Some of us were. I graduated high school back in the 80s, so it was before the Internet was public, and way before things like Google existed. I wanted to be a film maker, or a writer, or a cartoonist, but I knew back then that it was a matter of not only talent, but luck. I also had an interest in computers, so I thought I would get a degree in Comp Sci as a fall back in case my other careers didn't work out.

Good thing too, because the movie career didn't pan out (not for lack of trying---twice) and I never did get started on the writing career (another good thing---my best friend is an author and barely makes any money at it) or cartooning.

Now, how to prevent this from happening? Perhaps telling high school students that getting a degree doesn't mean a job? You have a better chance at a decent job with a STEM degree than without? That college is just too expensive? That college loans cannot be discharged with a bankruptcy?
What happens if you lose your key card and your code list?
I miss the JS tokenizer on plain text fields. It's hard to match validation and font styles in iframe fields.

That said, their React stripe elements library helped me use these in a project recently.
I'm accidentally stalking someone via Informed Delivery.

They emailed me, saying my address is eligible, so I signed in with my USPS account. It ONLY listed an address from 2 moves ago; I haven't lived there in over 6 years. There was no other way to sign up. So I signed up, assuming just some records were out of date, or I'd be able to update my address once signed in.

Nope. I'm getting informed delivery digests for a woman I don't know for an address I haven't lived at in 6 years.

I changed my address in my USPS online profile, and stopped getting the digests, but haven't gotten them for my new address yet.

What's frustrating about this is what's always frustrating about these kinds of services -- I have no idea how they're tracking me, and hence no understanding of how data is indexed.

USPS knows my address. I've filed change of address forms with them every time I've moved. The mail was duly forwarded each time. I've put holds on my mail multiple times when on vacation. The hold was honored. I've bought postage online. Etc.

As an end user, I would't go so far as to say I can't tell how it works, but I shouldn't have to know, and I don't bother. If I file my change of address or mail hold, and it works, that's all I care about. I don't bother to see if I have a saved session, if I'm logged in or if there's just a cookie, and if those services are tied to my online profile. I just go to the site, punch in the info, and use it.

So I found it quite surprising that my online profile would have such horribly out of date info (with no obvious way of updating it during the Informed Delivery signup process).
probably the wrong place to ask these questions.
> You could probably achieve something similar with Docker, but then you'd have to customize the mounts and deal with it ending up in different paths on different developers' machines & such.

Docker Compose can configure volumes via relative paths, e.g. './' and '../'
Yes he is. I got a chance to sit in on his court during the Google/Oracle trial and felt confident that what ever outcome came out of the trial, he would not allow it to be sabotaged by silly lawyer gambits.

If we could have 10 like him processing cases the world would be a more just place.
That's more of a Shopify thing. Stripe is an API for processing payments, and you can build what you'd like on top.
Scheme has a strong tradition in programming pedagogy---it is the language used in SICP and other classic books---and writing Scheme in Scheme is what many of these books build up to. So writing your own Scheme implementation is a natural thing for many Scheme programmers to do.

As for Racket, IIUC the plan is to migrate the current C VM to a Scheme one building on Chez Scheme. It won't be that Racket will be running on Chez. The Racket fork of Chez and Racket itself will be one and the same thing.
> "When this case started, Waymo had a strong case against Levandowski," Alsup said. "But it didn't sue Levandowski; it sued Uber."

> He continued:

> "Waymo alleged that Uber had stolen its trade secrets and had been violating four patents. Waymo had people signing, under oath, statements about how they could tell the patents had been violated. It's now turned out that the patent claims have completely vanished. They've been dropped. The expert you had was way out of bounds. There was no patent infringement. I think when Waymo got into this case, it thought it was going to go into the files and find an exact duplicate of the Waymo files. As it turns out, the product is dissimilar in a lot of ways. It may even be a vast improvement over what was going on Waymo. So they've come up short there."

Not looking good for Waymo...
No, it was written largely because the writers of the Constitution were in the process of dealing with the imminent collapse of a central government that had proven incapable of dealing with pressing security problems, and assuring states that the new central government with greater authority would not use that authority to hamstring the states in the event that it, too, was not competent in that regard was important.

They had also, several years before, been involved in the state (formerly colony) governments’ acting collectively to rebel against an unrepresentative (by simple fact that the people were not, directly or by the intermediary of representation of their local government in the central one, represented; this was not a matter of feeling) central government, and, sure, preserving the states’ capacity to do that in the event that the federal government became unresponsive or overbearing was a consideration.

The 2nd Amendment is unique in having an explicit statement of purpose, which for some reason those who claim to be it's Forrest defenders always ignore.
The abstract of the 5,154-author paper that this article mentions:

https://journals.aps.org/prl/abstract/10.1103/PhysRevLett.11...

I first thought it was this one

http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2008JInst...3S8003A

which is also by Aad et al., but that one has a mere 2,926 authors (because it includes only the ATLAS collaboration and not the CMS collaboration).

Seeing all of these people listed definitely lends some weight to the "it's kind of unreasonable for only 1-3 people to win a Nobel for this sort of work" view for me.
Close to the hardware can also be done with scheme and indeed has been done in the past. Look at all the smartcards, running a JVM. For scheme, it just requires some engineering effort and there is not much demand for it. Btw, there is picobit(https://github.com/stamourv/picobit) which can be run on micro-controllers.
I keep hoping they'll give one to SciHub.

"The goal is to fix the person and kick him out of hospital as fast as possible, and not to make everything possible to extend his stay as '5 star hotel hospitals' do in USA"

From my experience they are happy to kick you out right after surgery while still charging a ton of money. My girlfriend just had a surgery. Took 5 hours from entering the building to leaving the building. Cost was 40k. This is just for the surgery center. The doctors were extra.
Enough. What/why/where?
But what about the non-techie who is compromised during a "tech support" scam session or by a phishing email ("This is IRS calling...")? They don't know it's been compromised, don't report it and later have no idea why their reputation is trashed.
Incorrect. My Informed Delivery information was 2 moves out of date and I always file change of address, my ballots are sent to the new address, etc.

Looking back on it, I don't think there's any requirement you use your usps.gov login to file a change of address, but that site's info is what they use for informed delivery.
Well 'smaller' and 'close to 50%' will have different effects, and I'm willing to bet that the number of individuals affected will be a lot, lot less than 3bn.
No, that's not the point. It's not the plain text address info that matters but the sender (who sends you snail mail) matters. E.G. 123 Main St, Music City, USA is public knowledge to all people touches your physical mails, but no one has the entire picture of all physical mails you are getting from in your physical inbox (shops, banks etc.), until now with Informed Delivery courtesy of USPS.
People putting cash in a sock drawer are not exercising caution. They would use a safe if they used caution. I know people who I'm sure have more than $10,000 in cash in their "sock drawer"

Gibberish is not something humans can remember. Technical people use a password manage, but that just limits us to one password that we use often enough that we have a chance to remember it. One wrong knock to the head though and all the passwords stored in the manager are gone - unless you wrote the password down someplace, but then that place is your sock drawer: probably not secure enough.
Somewhat bizarrely, though, he is Basque and it's suggested he's wildly divergent genetically (though it's not clear if it's really suggesting that, or just Hel using it to rile him up - Hel is enough of a Marty Stu it's reasonable to read some authorial belief into it), neither of which is true of the Cagot.
Just how expensive would it be? I mean, for every pixel they are getting 0.001 ethers so surely a part of that could have been used for storing inside the blockchain? That would make it completely permanent.
Well, I'd argue that what you're seeing is a second-tier of power/wealth-hungry individuals. The first tier occupies our political leadership.

The behavior is basically identical, but with dramatically different payouts. Both involve finding a tribe and riding that tribe's enthusiasm to greater notoriety and wealth.

Before I dive in, I want to say "size matters". Singapore is the size of a city in US, whatever works for them does not apply to US as a whole.

That's only if SSNs are randomly assigned. They aren't.

Nextdoor does something that makes the postcard completely useless -- if you don't respond to the postcard, they'll put you in a queue for your "neighborhood leads" to approve:

https://help.nextdoor.com/customer/en/portal/articles/990082...

The problem is this is your neighbor confirming that a person by that name lives near them. They have no way of confirming that person is the actual owner of the account being verified, unless they go over, knock on their door, and ask "hey, did you sign up for Nextdoor."

So someone could sign up as Nextdoor as me. I throw away the postcard, because I don't know why I got it and I don't want anything to do with Nextdoor. Meanwhile a well-meaning neighbor of mine can just go and approves the account.
>I taught at a community college. A lot of people there are really just feeling around for what to do with their lives. A lot of them also didn't do so well in high school and needed to skip ACT/SAT requirements to get in to a 4 year school to do what they really needed. This translates into lots of general ed classes/GPA boosters.

Then I think we need to stop expecting that there's going to be some special path they'll ever take in life that's specific to them as individuals, at least work-wise. We should instead set up a general path that someone can take to earn a living without needing a personal drive in any particular direction, and let them be a unique individual outside work.
Do you remember something called the "Revolutionary War"? It was an event in history that happened when the people who wrote the 2nd amendment fought the British government for control of the country.
I am really pleased to see payment gateways finally offering something worth paying the fees for. With this, or Braintree's hosted i-frames we get easy PCI compliance (SAQ-A) and proper UX. No more pop ups! Well done Stripe. If it was a bit cheaper it would be a great service.

Or those of us that are comfortable with technology refuse to carry tracking devices in this post-Snowden world.

The internet is already creating far too many interdependencies that will have unforeseen consequences and create the risk of cascade failure. I strongly recommend to anyone that wants to tie something as important as government services to the internet that they listen to Dan Geer's recent-ish talk[1][2], and maybe reconsider the kind of future they are trying to create.

Noting that older generations tend to be more racist is not ageism, it's just a trend. Just like how noting that Asian Americans make more money on average than whites isn't racism, it's just the way things are.

I'd love to see an alt site called SocraticOverflow, where people answer everyones programming questions like this :)

I know a lot of the time people on stackoverflow only have a problem because they haven't asked themselves the right question.

Of course, there's still a lot where it's just a gap in knowledge that needs filling in.

I really think your network is the way to go here. Contact VC funds you've worked with, pitched to, or are otherwise connected with and talk to them about portfolio companies. As someone mentioned, recruiting/headhunting firms are usually on the lookout for executives as well.

Definitely not a needle in a haystack with a bit of networking. I have a similar story (not even as impressive as yours - 2x return to investors on an acquired seed-stage startup) and in 1-2 months of networking have plenty of inbound from Series B companies looking for VP/C-level folks.

"prevent the interviewers from seeing the candidate, knowing their name, or hearing their voice"

And what happens representation becomes even more skewed?

The fact is the Valley employs gender/ethnicity almost perfectly commensurate with those graduating with CS degrees.

It's borderline bigoted to imply that 'it's all due to racism'.

Yes, surely there are gender/ethnic issues, but the funnel is 90% of the problem.

There's no fair way to hire 50% females if only 15% of applicants are female.

I get there's 'dynamic feedback' (i.e. more women in tech encourages more younger women in tech) but again, it's the responsibility of people to make choices in life.

I have enough East/South Asian friends to roughly grasp the soft-racism they faced growing up, and they've done very well both as individuals and as a group.

This issue needs nuance and few people are willing to speak in those terms.
Besides Equifax, what other recent hacks were exploited by open source?
I know that Equifax was exploited through a vulnerability in the Apache Struts component, but I wanted to know what other recent hacks were also due to open source. I'd say most companies just reveal they've been hacked as opposed to clearly specifying what part of the code was hacked.
> Well, that's incredibly stupid. That means you can't write, for example, a web server in Coq unless you intentionally introduce undesirable behavior to satisfy the compiler.

There's ways around it (e.g. proving progress is always going to be made instead of termination) and there's a web server in Coq:

> 2. There are properties of interest that cannot be decided by static typing
>
> Which of those is the case is an empirical question but I submit that #2 is much more likely to be the case. Therefore, static typing cannot obviate the need to be prepared for your program to exhibit unexpected behavior at run time except in the most trivial cases.

Again, look at the sel4 project. It verifies the correctness of an entire OS showing that formal verification is powerful, practical and useful. Google for all the algorithms that have been formally verified with Coq, Isabelle and other proof assistants.

Why do you think it would be common properties of interest wouldn't be provable? Do you think mathematicians have this issue (there's not a lot of difference when you have expressive enough types)? You yourself must have an intuition about why the properties would be true so you should be able to write a formal proof of that although it can be very challenging currently.

As a crypto-developer working in the blockchain space, my primary company has opted to do an ICO as part of its operations.
The company has existing VC backing of between 4-10 million, and the project would benefit from blockchain - for one aspect.
By no means is a new token necessary, but that fact seems to have been side-stepped.
The product exists, and perceivably the token could be usable upon issuance...

I enjoy working on the crypto for the project, but I concern myself with the eventual legalities of the ICO and how it might change the companies incentives internally.

I have bills to pay, leaving on principle alone isn't viable for me, but, if it could impact on my family, I will.

Yup, that's beyond horrible.

But not something I'd be worried about when it comes to family. I think I can trust them enough for that.

The part that worries me is when people get pressed between a rock and a hard place. It is exceptionally difficult to keep your hands out of the honey jar sitting in your lap when you're starving.

Alternatively, if it's truly an asset, can it be taxed as an asset?
If I give a company a car, that is taxed. If I give a company my data which is worth more than a car, it isn't.

Is it possible that current accounting/tax law can be interpreted so that these are viewed similarly?
This is far away from the point of my response, which is that the original scenario is not a good justification for something like sci-hub.

Regarding the testing, I was only looking at local Tallahassee water testing companies. This was an overly strict restriction of mine.

The OP has not yet clarified what "chemicals that act like estrogens" means, so it's possible that [1] of yours may be too limited in what it tests for.

FWIW, your [1] does not include the "Thermo Scientific Ultimate™ 3000/TSQ Vantage™ LC-MS/MS", with which it's designed to work. I am unable to find a price for that, but it looks expensive.

As I've no problem with the statement "The consistently large MOEs and MOSs strongly suggest that prescribed and total estrogens that may potentially be present in drinking water in the United States are not causing adverse effects in U.S. residents, including sensitive subpopulations.", I will not be starting a testing business, as the temptation to market to fear is too high.

I said what the intent was. I was replying to your post that said

> I can’t imagine any legal use for a high capacity semiautomatic weapon with armor piercing bullets. A weapon like that is comically impractical for hunting or self defense.

I was pointing out that the point wasn't hunting, or even self defense. It was to form an effective fighting force, and semiautomatic (and even fully automatic) weapons and armor piercing bullets are very useful for that.

You replied, questioning whether such things could be effective today. That's a different question. It's a valid question, but it's a different question from the intent of the Second Amendment (and of what should therefore be legal).

And by the way, the militias, by themselves, were not enough to win the Revolutionary War...
