That's not true. This is provenly and factually false.

On All Android devices I've had (and I've had all version from 2.2. through to 8.0), turning wifi off causes lots of apps to nag you about turning it back on, exactly because of they wish to use location services.
Fantastic, I love reading about canine learning. Seeing Patricia McConnell's (of "The Other End of the Leash" fame) adornment of it is a huge reason for me to buy this book. Training my dog with that book (and Don't Shoot the Dog, by Pryor) framing how I interpret what my dog tells me has been hugely beneficial for both my sanity, and I'm sure my dog's as well.

I guess you and most of the rest of the planet have very different opinion about what "clearly" means then, otherwise we woulnd't be having this discussion now.

Ten years ago, maybe. Today though, most people have devices that are both portable and computationally powerful. This has the potential to finally make secure keys that are actually convenient to use.
Hey folks! Mailspring maintainer here — glad to see this on Hacker News. For anyone just catching up, here's the tldr on Mailspring:

- It's a fork of Nylas Mail with the entire mailsync codebase
(~40k lines of JavaScript) replaced with a new C++ core based on Mailcore2. It uses roughly half the RAM and CPU of Nylas Mail and idles with almost zero "CPU Wakes" thanks to new C++11 features, which translates to great battery life. You might not even notice it's an Electron app.

- It still has the same great pro features, like snoozing and send later, but doesn't send your email credentials to Mailspring servers. All of these features have been re-implemented to run locally on your computer.

- The pro features still cost money ($8/mo). The goal is to use revenue from subscriptions to pay maintainers (myself, possibly other folks!) to maintain Mailspring indefinitely and/or put bounties on popular feature requests.

- The roadmap and website are still being assembled, but there's some really cool stuff in the works. Launching it and polishing the new C++ sync codebase is just step 1.
The equivalent of a social security number is used here in Norway (fødselsnummer) as my ID for all sorts of things. I use it when I log in to my bank, when I apply for a loan or credit card, when log in to the state run tax web site, when I apply for my pension, if I am admitted to hospital I will have a bracelet with my full name,and this number both as plain text and as a bar code.

It's hardly a secret yet identity theft is not a major problem here.
Well, I'm done. I've been a Lenovo fanboy for _years_, currently running a maxxed-out X220 w/ FreeBSD 11.1.

But after _years_ of clamouring by the ThinkPad community, Lenovo has a released a decidedly half-assed machine. Yay for the keyboard, but no 4:3 / 3:2, ThinkLight? This is just a cynical exercise in branding.

And _then_, they are only making 5,000 of them, so that the price is high, and (unlike other older models, like the X220) they won't be thick on the ground in a few years for parts.
I can't, it's complete bullshit as I don't even have any devices paired. The long press is useless, it does nothing.
Isn't it funny that we consider the "last mile" or even last few feet the difficult part of deliveries, something that can't possibly be automated, but there are countless cases of presumably capable humans failing at basic but organic tasks like reading a sign or opening a gate.

Is really HN so hostile to statements critical of anything Apple does that you actually need to create a throwaway for it?

Great link. Just finished reading through it and I feel more educated on typography. At the very least I now have a better feel of the lingo and vocabulary which surrounds typography. Thanks.
I also used to think the same with respect to Sublime and Atom, but Atom got faster lately with respect to the first releases.

I understand your frustration as most shops claiming they do agile actually don't. But I've worked at least twice in agile envs, and it worked nicely.

For every success there is a failure. Instead of celebrating the failures and trying to show the world they should follow you (like cattle) try and well educate people better on how to make it work.

It's just shameful because you don't always explain to people that it's your situation that made it fail. It's also possible that it's person oriented.

I've had the person oriented failure where the boss wastes his other employee's times by constantly brain storming. So it requires people to be in the office (to him). That's more like bullying

The book isn't a book about training dogs. It's more a book about how dogs came to be the way there are. Quoted from the article: "The Domestic Dog" walks readers through the many questions they might have about dogs. What is up with the wacky genetics underpinning some dogs having itty bitty short legs and others immensely long ones? How can a Chihuahua and Great Dane be members of the same species? How (and how much) do genetics contribute to different behavioral traits, and how is this even calculated or assessed? Is there a relationship between early life experiences and later behaviors? What does it mean when a dog barks incessantly or tears up the house in your absence? What is life like for feral or free roaming dogs living on the outskirts of human societies? How do they get food, and what are their relationships like with other dogs? Those questions represent just a tiny fraction of the issues investigated in this 416-page volume.
I'd say it's not incredibly hard, but it's certainly not intuitive. Training animals (including people) is very much a learned skill.

Our primate brains get frustrated easily when a canine brain doesn't pick up what we think should be instinctual, and we're very bad at applying well-timed primary and secondary reinforcers until we're shown how.

We're also particularly bad at pacing the jumps in difficulty we should be giving when training new behaviors. I see this all the time, whether it be crate training, heelwork, nosework, teaching commands as simple as "sit" or "speak" on vocal command, etc.

Exactly same situation in Finland. Yet in Finland there has been discussion about replacing it. But the current system isn't perfect. Address space is limited, as well as the current system indicates your gender, which gender neutral people don't like too much.

In Finland we do have check code. Valid check byte is '0123456789ABCDEFHJKLMNPRSTUVWXY'. Format is DDMMYY then separator (if CC==19 then - elif + CC==20 then +)NNNC where NNN is sequence number and C is check byte. NNN contains also sex in format of parity, and even sequence numbers are used for females. -> Creates a limit of 500 identities / day / sex. Full example: 0123456-7890

You might revise your opinion about that somewhere around the hundredth time somebody tells you that you have to communicate with them by fax.
No, it replaces p[j] with p[j]+1. This way, only those that have 1 are prime. They aren't divisible, except by a single number, since the count is 1.
I hate both. If "ask" is on, it's constantly harassing me. If "ask" is off, I have to search hard to find the setting that lets me connect to a wifi network in a tool that also lets me change the language I'm using.
Your review of the code was incorrect. The code tests primality with the ==1 check that you say is wrong.

I have the opposite experience. FedEx and UPS just get to the address, get confused and mark it "delivery attempted" without my ever knowing. They don't even try the buzzer. FedEx won't even allow me to create an account to add delivery instructions because they claim my address doesn't exist.

Amazon delivery calls my cell and I can give the necessary instructions. It's the only one that works for my location.
I probably overstated... I don't think JITs including LuaJIT do much for string manipulation, but that would mean it's on par with Lua.

Off the top of my head I think of Lua/Python as 10-100x slower than C, but LuaJIT might get you within 2x for some numerical workloads. But it will not get you within 2x for string workloads -- it's still in the 10x or worse category.

Someone reported a slower benchmark here but the maintainer argued that is invalid. But he says all the time is within C functions, which is what I was getting at.

https://www.freelists.org/post/luajit/Luajit-string-concaten...

A couple people mention string performance here, without many details:

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12573981

I think the bottom line is that the semantics of Lua strings are completely different than how you manage strings in C, so there's a limit to how much you can optimize the program, even if you have a lot of time to (which the JIT does not.)
I've had the pleasure of working with Edward for the last couple of months, and it's been the first PPL I've felt comfortable building a stable production codebase on top of.

It strikes a great balance between feeling like you're programming with probability distributions, and providing ways of diving under the hood to improve performance when you need to (like tweaking the underlying tf optimizer, or being able to implement your own distribution to use like a native one).

If such a library didn't exist, I would have needed to build my own. Congrats on the move to tf.contrib.

Bob Pease once said, "my favorite programming language is solder." That this OS runs on closed, proprietary hardware means we either need a third-party solution, for purchasers to vote with their feet, or for the vendor to be brought to their senses. Perhaps this is a regulatory matter for the FCC to evaluate (now or later).

I have a number of friends who use OSX and Windows, and keep telling me "just give up on Linux (or FreeBSD) and use something which Just Works!"

Well, except for stuff like this. Or the built-in advertising. Or the VBA code that beachballs in Excel Mac but not Excel Windows. Or the buggy, crashy drivers. Or the awful printing experience. Or the ability to reliably predict behaviour when plugging in external monitors or projectors. Or ...

I _think_ what most people mean by "Just Works" is "I don't have to edit configuration files in order to set up my system", not "my system is reliable and predictable."

I believe so.

In some parts of the UK this goes all the way down to individual contractors, of the man-with-a-van type.

As you can imagine this leads to a mixed exxperience because they are all self employed.

Interestingly, about 18 months ago they appeared to change tactics and begin contracting mostly foreign drivers. Ive theorised this was a cost thing; delivery experience went through the floor, I think they are paid a pittance per parcel and so deliveries to my house, which can be hard to locate and therefore takes time, winds them up.

Ive had drivers full on scream in my face over how long it has taken to find me.

I released a native add on [1] for Node.js earlier this week for querying a block device file descriptor for block size. It uses different ioctl calls depending on the platform and works on FreeBSD, Linux, macOS and Windows.

It also provides cross-platform aligned buffers for DMA.

Note that block size can be logical or physical sector size. IIRC st_blksize will typically report logical sector size (usually 512 bytes), but physical sector size (usually 4096 bytes) is often larger for Advanced Format drives, and is what you want to be using for optimal alignment. Any multiple of 4096 bytes is usually a safe bet for block size. Note that some SSD drives have 8192 or 16384 bytes as a "physical sector" page size / block size.

I find it unsurprising that once again AV software itself has been exploited. AV is by nature complex and highly privileged. AV has been regarded by many in the security community as a net negative.

In this case it's unclear whether the software was running on an endpoint or if it was some kind of middle box. It would be interesting to see technical details. It seems the politics here is to spin it as some bad Russian software, but I'm not sure other vendors are any safer.

I think I am 'Group 3'. My account is 4 1/2 years old and I was a 'read only' site visitor for a while before that.

So there were the people who got here first, then the people who discovered the site in 2008, which was a long time ago, and have fair claim to being 'group 2'.

So I think 'Group 3' is me. A defining characteristic of 'Group 3' is that goes back to pre-Snowden times, before the truth was known. Kids today must be 'Group 4'.

What I Learned from Reading Every Amazon Shareholders Letter
It's unfortunate that people often forget to include context like this in announcements. Thanks for sharing!
Conversely Hackernews, like many tech sites, also has a million people who have to whine their exaggerated complaints on every Apple article, like how every software suddenly ‘slurps’ their battery, how nothing is ‘snappy’ anymore and how Jobs is spinning in his grave about the latest UI ‘disaster’ and problem’gate’.

Today the walls in the hated ‘walled garden’ are not high enough.

The reality: these exceptions are made in a way that is exposed to external users which is much more transparent than most companies would be. It is stupid that Uber still has access if they don’t need it anymore. If you have to do a demo and it has to work before it is ready you have to make tough decisions.
You can avoid the more expensive squaring in favour of addition if you keep a couple of extra counters.

I've had all those issues in Munich too. And I've managed to have amazon blacklist them for my account.

One support rep told me that they have that option if you have more than 3 deliveries that they messed up.

I've filed a complaint after every time they didn't deliver the package properly (as in, not delivered at all, even though it was possible), and then I sent an email with 5 or so order numbers, descriptions of what was wrong, and asked them to blacklist amazon logistics.

Here's the quote from an email:

>Since you mentioned that this is not the first time this has happened, please reply to my email, giving us 3 order numbers which you feel were improperly delivered by Amazon Logistics, together with the issues for each.

>As soon as we receive them, we will file an official complaint against this carrier, trying to exclude them from future deliveries of your orders.

Note: Some support reps insisted that it's not possible to blacklist a single delivery company.
I've had the same experience. Every time they deliver via Amazon's service, I have a poor experience. They arrive in unmarked vehicles, so people don't let them in buildings. I can never get in contact with them when there are problems. One time someone ordered a gift to my place with amazon and I was notified that it was delivered; however, I hadn't received it. Amazon sent another for free 3 days later. If they are going to do a sort of Uber for deliveries they need to figure out some way to streamline it.
