I don't know enough about linker/loader details, though, to tell you how different ones actually make use of this information. IIRC, the glibc loader just checks that it's 0x0 or 0x3 and leaves it at that.

> Cool service but it ends up being like 2x the price of leasing.

You are comparing apples to oranges. Your $1500/month (from the past, different year, packages, car) lease payment is an obligation that requires a 24/36/48 month commitment.
Unfortunately, there's no per-repo or per-org perms which is somewhat annoying. Enabling on a repo-by-repo basis would be insanely useful.
Any thoughts on weather fill rate could become an issue?
Hilariously enough, your comment only makes sense if you assume that everyone else is as pathetically and irrationally emotionally invested in their consumer choices as you clearly are. It's entirely possible to complain about one of the downsides of apple's approach without thinking being an extremist on the position of consumer control of their computing devices.

For example, I use Ubuntu instead of eg Windows; someone as simple-minded as you could make the exact same complaint: "why don't you go compile Linux from scratch and leave the normal people alone".

But this would be missing the part of the picture where eg I chose Ubuntu over Debian because the small extra hassle of Debian's extra commitment to free software means not being able to do things out of the box like use certain codecs.

People are capable of choosing different points on the spectrum of convenience vs controlled solutions, and those of us who aren't incredibly immature are able to discuss their pros and cons without turning everything into a holy war.

> What the heck did Apple ever do to you?

Jeez, this part is just embarrassing.
I think most people trust their government, large companies etc. to some degree, but much more so they trust others who are in "their tribe".

e.g. if I read a story on HN about some police brutality, posted by some familar, karma-rich HN user, I'd quite possibly give it more credence than a report from said police department denying it. Just because I'm in the HN tribe.

This effect is why posting deliberately inflammatory fake news on platforms like Facebook is so damn effective. The typical pattern is (a) establishing the author's tribe (e.g. gun-toting 50-something male living in a southern state) and then (b) launching the attack.

I really like to think that, as a rational person, my bullshit detectors would fire... but its an interesting thought experiment as to what I'd give credence to just because it was uttered by a respected HN poster.

Something without a GPU: VirtualBox. Last time I tried a Servo nightly in VirtualBox (to be fair, a few months ago), it immediately crashed/aborted with a GPU-related error.

I think there's a good argument for preventing security-critical apps from raw GPU access, because graphics cards and drivers are a huge amount of attack surface.

I still think WebRender is the way forward, but I hope they get it working with something like llvmpipe.

> So what do we do about the "fencification" of Democracy?

Is the problem that politicians are too good at debate or is the problem that voters lack the critical thinking skills to recognize that they're being played? I'd lean much more towards the latter. In watching public policy debates during election cycles, I always notice how little it resembles the debates I did in high school. Politicians, debating the way they do for voters, would lose in high school debate competitions. If anything, debate taught me to recognize nonsensical arguments that were, none the less, somewhat convincing. I wonder what would happen if more voters were acquainted with the experience of having won an argument based solely how you argued rather than the substance of your position.

> Thomas Jefferson was on to something when he said we should rewrite parts of the constitution[0] once a generation

Ah...but now you've just created a meta game that controls the actual game. The Machiavellian players, as you put it, would just figure out how to control the rule rewriting process to achieve their necessary victories once the game starts being played. The only thing that makes the rule changes in debate work for a while is that the rules are written by impartial people who are trying to fix a broken situation and, crucially, are ineligible to play by the rules they create.
Thanks for the kind words :)

Yes, this distinction will probably remain, but we're trying to push where we need to get back to textual languages. If you need to build a machine learning algorithm, I'm not sure visual tools will ever be the way to go (though i'd love to see this).

But both ways work well together. In Bubble, you'd build your optimization algorithm as a plugin, and then you (and even better, others, non technical colleagues) will be able to use the action you've built visually. The Bubble interface becomes the common language between business, product people and coders.
Its not about lower costs or growing the industry.

If we save $1 billion dollars in automating one industry, we are just going to spend that $1 billion dollars elsewhere, growing some other industry.
> nice! can you talk more about Rust's tooling? How do you debug? What IDE or text editor do you feel comfy with? Do you have/use/need autocomplete?

For writing code, I've been using IntelliJ with the Rust plugin for the past year.

Autocomplete works pretty well, there is Cargo integration so you can edit your dependency file in IntelliJ and things will automatically update so that autocomplete and documentation (go to definition) for the newly added dependencies start working immediately.

There is also simple build/check/run support, with build and test output appearing in the lower panel inside the IDE. There are some quirks, but they have been very minimal.

I've never used IntelliJ to debug Rust itself, because in most of the projects I've worked on, the Rust code has been designed as a completely separate library with a semi-public API, intended for embedding in another language like Swift or C#.

So the debugger has almost always been Visual Studio or Xcode, but it works exactly as I would expect even without using any sort of Rust plugin for either one.

The other day I was stepping through the call stack to find the source of a crash (one that I caused by failing to keep the P/Invoke signatures up to date with our Rust functions), and Visual Studio switched right from C# to Rust from one frame to the next, showing the source code and the line where the crash occurred in Rust.

Really I can't think of anything that has been even a moderately significant problem, it's been great all around.
what does he mean with "It bothers me immensely that all clothing is hand made. Automation is woefully absent from the textile industry"?

I thought all clothing construction was automated in factories, like any assembly line automation.
Mine is exactly the same :-)
"Responsible encryption is achievable. Responsible encryption can involve effective, secure encryption that allows access only with judicial authorization. Such encryption already exists. Examples include the central management of security keys and operating system updates; the scanning of content, like your e-mails, for advertising purposes; the simulcast of messages to multiple destinations at once; and key recovery when a user forgets the password to decrypt a laptop.

No one calls any of those functions a “back door.” In fact, those capabilities are marketed and sought out by many users."

No one?
I don't think it has anything to do with cashier wages, and more to do with customer perception.

Kiosks are already cheaper than people.

With minimum wage at $7.25/hour, and a Kiosk being able to replace 2+ shifts (16 hour days 7 days a week), that's $30K/year in savings, which would more than pay for a kiosk and maintenance.

Developing the software to run them isn't free, but spreading $15M in development costs among 14,000 restaurants is only $1K each.

But many customers would balk at having to order at a kiosk, so McDonalds will still hire humans.
Yes there are. As dismissive as I am of a lot of hospitality related posts on hn(and comments), it is actually possible to have a good (and profitable ) restaurant that is nice and boring(there is bothing" wrong with that).

Unfortunately, there are 20-30 high risk/let's give this a go/I wanna say I'm an owner style restaurants that pop up for each one.

If you focus on quality food at a good price with consistency and quality control, and in a good location, you have a good chance. You would have to run it yourself though (best chance is to be in the kitchen). These are far and few between though.

As a chef, there isn't much more I enjoy, than to go to a family owned restaurant, have a great meal and to talk to the owner.

It really is a special experience, especially when I have spent so much time in the industry. To be invited into someone else's kitchen, see their ingredients and how much effort they out into it? It's amazing.

But it isn't something that I have ever seen done with a owner that doesn't work there. Ever.

To put my above into context, my job for 4 years was being paid to goto a restaurant and fix the problems. I cannot begin to explain how bad some of the things I have seen at some of those places.

But I have also seen owners who really want their restaurant to succeed. Only one, that I went to, whose owner didn't have hospitality experience, is still open. And she put so much effort into learning (infact she still emails me to ask for advice and information), that I believe she could succeed at anything.

But on the flip side, you could purchase an existing mom+pop business, but without an amazing manager who is willing to work for peanuts+, you're screwed.

+If they were that good, why are they willing to do that instead of working a larger site for more money, or opening their own.

> compared to my friend's Android phones

One universal fallacy I've noted since the beginning of Android and iOS is seeing people compare $30 Android phones with iPhones, which target only the premium part of the market. I've used primarily the Galaxy S line but my friends have had Nexuses etc, and the hardware quality (screen, camera, compute speed,build quality) has been about as good (with variance in both directions) as contemporary iPhones for many years now (helped along by the fact that the galaxy S6 aped iPhone's design pretty aggressively).
Xiaomi sold half as many smartphones in 2Q17 as Apple. Huawei sold about as much as Apple. Apart from Samsung, the Android brands that are well known in western markets -- HTC, Motorola. Google, LG, Sony -- aren't relevant globally.

Right. The Gutenberg books have typically been proofread by human beings, while the straight IA books are usually raw scans that have been OCRed.

Edit: it should be pointed out that there's a lot of overlap here. As far as I know, all Gutenberg books get uploaded to IA. Conversely, IA scans are often used as the starting point for Gutenberg projects.

But, in general, the advantage of Gutenberg releases is better proofreading, while the advantage of IA is much wider coverage.
It was probably me :-p I replied to the above comment, if you have any follow up questions I'll reply.
Agreed. My anecdotal experience is that the number of low quality sites has increased dramatically.

I put this down partly to the "freshness" algorithm. You get shown the most appalling crap on the grounds that it appeared within the past few hours.

If you're a share cropper in the news blogosphere, it's stupid to spend an hour checking facts or making phone calls because then you'll be 50th to post. Post any old crap and you reap the financial rewards of "freshness".

I exaggerate only slightly....
i agree that it’s often used pejoratively to define people. i was not trying to justify that kind of usage. i was simply pointing out that the article generally uses the term as an adjective, not as a noun (i.e., it’s something you can wear, not something you can be).

however you are right that the called-out text from the job ad uses it as a noun, unfortunately.

i’m curious why the phrasing makes you feel it’s toxic toward you personally (without a preconception either way on my part)?
Those pictures are indeed useless when used by banks, since they do nothing against MITM. But for the attack described in the OP they would actually be a reasonable defense, since this sort of indiscriminate low-privilege phishing can't intercept requests between the user and the system in order to determine the secret image.

I am not the target age but I am touring Europe next year. This interests me.

Edit: I see I wasn't clear enough. It interests me because it may catch on or be available in other areas, should it be a success. Tooling through Europe in varied Porsches, each optimized for different reasons, would be a great vacation. Easily being able to do this would interest me. Thus, this interests me in that I hope it catches on.

I'm trying to be brief as I've made several comments in this thread already and don't want to swamp it with my own opinions. In a nutshell, I don't think the quality of argumentation matters if ordinary people can't keep up with it.

I could have removed all between-word spaces from this comment (eg to fit within some arbitrary character count limit) and it would still be comprehensible to most readers, but at the cost of significant extra work.
That's actually very close to how modern game engines with with large teams(substitute designers/artists for product/business) work.

The idea of the NSA working with a major components supplier isn't an extraordinary claim. Intel will have a major presence in all sorts data centers of interest to the NSA.

If I were an American and believed in what the NSA was doing, I'd want to know what they were doing with their budget if they didn't at least try to get a hardware back door into Intel CPUs. Why waste budget on finding exploits in patchable software when they can go straight to the silicon?

Management and security. It started as just management, and then it added security as demand for that service grew. There are very real needs that it fills, though it doesn't need to sacrifice end-user control:

Management: Imagine you manage and support 10,000 desktops and laptops. Remote access is essential (otherwise you'd effectively pay something like 2/3 of your support staff to cover time spent walking around), but typical remote access depends on an available processor, memory, OS, etc. For the many cases where those components aren't all available (something failed, OS is being updated, need to disable a component to diagnose it, etc.), you need out-of-band remote access, such as what Intel ME provides. It's a high-value service for corporate IT.

Security: You need an out-of-band machine to perform crypto functions, to protect the crypto functions against in-band attacks (e.g., in the OS, BIOS, applications ...). The out-of-band machine can then be used to verify the integrity of BIOS, OS, and other important things. It's also useful for DRM. If you're in corporate IT, you suddenly have a way to provide reasonable security guarantees across your 10,000 computers, a huge step forward.

If you are in corporate IT, or if you're a vendor wanting to enforce, protect, or hide your media or other proprietary bits, end-user control is undesirable. Obviously, that could be optional for owners of the computers who have other needs, but somehow it never works out that way ...

If you want to work as a software developer, chances are you'll have to move to Silicon Valley, San Francisco, Austin, etc

I was thinking the same as soon as I read the article subheading. I can certainly grant the title "Novels [especially English novels] were never the same after Henry James" but Dostoyevsky definitely "pioneered" what one would typically call 'psychological' literature.

I actually have several of Banville's (the author of this piece) own novels sitting in my backlog. A few skims confirm his work is quite interested in psychology as the novel can render it (all his work that I have is in first person), so it's not too surprising he'd focus on that aspect of James's writing.

I'd wager James's central contribution to literature was his intense craftsman's devotion and concern for the construction of the novel as an aesthetic object and his firm conviction literature could be an artform and not merely the stuff of adventure tales and parables--his literary criticism and prefaces to his own works are perhaps even more important to the development of literature than his stories.
> there's absolutely no reason why consumer devices should be burdened with these backdoors

Intel's advantage is built and defended on economies of scale. Making a hundred million of one thing [1] is more profitable than making 50 million of two things. Particularly if enterprises' demand for IME is stronger than consumers' demand for non-IME chips (assuming no strong externalities, e.g. NSA corruption).

I think the Intel Management Engine is crap. But there's a comprehensible reason it's there.

Damn there is a shortage of pastry chefs everywhere.

Biggest issue is, as apprentices (in general), they have to be at work at 2am. (Situational I know, but in general their hours are rather inverted).

I had the option to specialise in pastry when I was an apprentice, but the hours looked so bad.

Now I'd give my left trsticle for a decent pastry chef(well before I left hospitality), so I guess that's karma.

Also croissants - you can get rather high quality par baked fairly cheaply, you can import/export them, as long as they are snap frozen(and most people can't tell the difference). - yes there is a difference before anyone tells me off, I'm just pointing out an alternative
From the text of the law:

"(2) No reproduction, distribution, display, or performance is authorized under this subsection if—
(A) the work is subject to normal commercial exploitation;
(B) a copy or phonorecord of the work can be obtained at a reasonable price"

I'd imagine that "normal commercial exploitation" would generally mean an item that is currently in print, although I could see other theoretical cases this would cover (for example, the work is not technically being printed anymore but there is a huge stock of existing volumes on the market).

I don't think reselling rare volumes would fall under this category - that could be "commercial exploitation", but certainly not "normal".
I don't think, they are obsessed with 60 FPS, that's just what for most people is synonymous to a smooth experience and is often not met by browsers at this point in time.

Here's for example an early demo showing Wikipedia at ridiculous frames per second (starts at 0:26:00): https://air.mozilla.org/bay-area-rust-meetup-february-2016/

In the video, he says 500 FPS, but assuming there's no more complicated formula behind this, I think it would actually be 2174 FPS. (0.46 ms GPU time per frame -> 1/0.00046s = 2173.913 FPS)
