If AG supported the real change, he would have used the effectively an unlimited legal muscle his office has to go after the "in the wrong" real estate tycoons.
What about regular people? Is everyone expected to be some high paid unicorn/big 4 engineer? Society is more than just rich techies.

Have you tried searching for a keyword that is only in the content of the email and NOT on the subject?
I tried even now. It doesn’t work for me.

This "guy" is a security professional; her linkedIn profile shows her working in serious security roles for over a decade.

I might start with this paper from Bengio et al. and then read more recent papers which cite it. The problem hasn't been solved though so don't be surprised if you're not fully convinced by the arguments :)

The Voter Fraud Commission Wants Your Data; Experts Say They Can’t Keep It Safe
I paid about $1000/month to rent a house with 3 other roommates in college when you added up all the utilities and bills such, it's surprising to me that you can get a nice place in SV for that!

...oh wait, you mean $1000/month PER PERSON? Ha, no. In Kansas, you can pay $1000/month to own that whole house.

Would you mind describing your needs? I read the article and I still don't fully understand the need for multiple accounts -- seems the article is more about the tool. I would understand the need when it comes to API rate limiting, but I have never ran across this on a million+ session/day website.

I think matrix forms a nice basis for a secure chat platform. Only the apps are not really all that good. The desktop apps are electron based and the android app is just not up to par with telegram or WhatsApp.

And more to the point:

This question doesn't compute for me. Democracy was always explained to me as a mechanism to keep countries peaceful and stable at the expense of economic efficiency.
I thought I was the only one! As far as I can tell the sentiment regarding Swagger/OpenAPI is generally positive, but I am starting to think that's just because it's an improvement over the status quo of "nothing" for most people.

I personally prefer API Blueprint, but even there is room for improvement.
Data-Free Knowledge Distillation for Deep Neural Networks
Quora needs to crack down on self-promoters. Every other answer includes a link to site for a product or a service. Its taking away from the genuine nature of real questions and answers. Now its just a place business people go to get the word out about their service, product, research, etc.
To add to the above post, the headers have to be unencrypted, else they'd have no method to actually send the email. If it were encrypted, they'd have no idea what the address was, or who to bounce it to if the address doesn't exist.

Email headers contain a lot of information. It has the various email addresses, servers involved, ip addresses, time stamps, subject, priority, and things like that.

The body of the email is the only part that gets encrypted when encryption is in use.

LGBT people, too.

I'm a trans lesbian, born and still live in Texas. When I move out of state, it's going to be a state with trans-inclusive protections at the state level.

Spending this entire year worrying about Dan Patrick shoving transphobic legislation down our throats was emotionally harrowing, and I don't want to go through it again. I hope to be out of the state by the time the 2019 session begins. And Patrick promised to do this long before the legislative session ended, so I spent all of 2016 worrying too.

Finding a place to move to has been like solving a puzzle. A red state is out of the question. I don't want to risk another bathroom bill. And statewide LGBT protections are needed even if a local government has its own protections because a) being protected in one city is worthless when none of its suburbs have protections, and b) the state can revoke local government's ability to protect minorities at any time (look at Arkansas or North Carolina).

I also love southwestern-style suburbs and I'm fairly conservative in a lot of areas that don't involve LGBT rights (namely that I love suburbs, I utterly despise hipsters, I'm a very proud neoliberal globalist Jew, and I'm an establishment Democrat that despises the Bernie wing), so that's making it hard to find a place that's exactly like what I want. I'm looking for a conservative, sprawling suburb that isn't riddled with hipsters and is located in a blue state. I also insist on a place where AC is universal, and for food-related reasons, I want to live somewhere there's a lot of Asian people.

I've basically narrowed it down to parts of the LA and Vegas areas (OC and Torrance in LA, Spring Valley in Vegas).
> Throw in bills and other expenses and you're looking at ~40% of your monthly income, assuming a salary of 130k.

That's not a very good assumption. $130k is on the low end for anyone with enough experience to be looking at a home purchase.

I don't know why an absolute value is ever considered "insane." If salaries support it, it's not insane.

Even with the high housing prices (caused mostly by regressive zoning policies), senior engineers at a big tech company or late-stage startups should be able to afford a home.

At this point I'd be perfectly happy with a dilapidated shack in Bellevue. Anything to cut down on the soul-crushing commute.

Now if only employers embraced remote-work fully, I'd move to Gold Bar or somewhere else in the Cascades and dispense with the city altogether.
Even if that's true (which is doubtful, as the motion to press a key is much shorter than to move one's arm all the way off a keyboard to the mouse), then you still have the additional time it takes to move the mouse to where it needs to go, and then the time it takes to move your arm back to the keyboard.

There's no way that's going to be as fast. It's also going to be a lot more tiring, if you do that a lot, than merely moving your fingers.

Show HN: Learn GraphQL by Roleplaying Game of Thrones Characters
Hey HN,

Here's my GraphQL game! https://graphql-of-thrones.herokuapp.com/

I was learning GraphQL myself (through http://howtographql.com/, it's great) and found myself pretty lost in the tooling and serverside code when it still hadn't been established clearly to me what GraphQL -is-.

I am a big admirer of educational games like vim-adventures.com, flexboxfroggy.com and flexboxdefense.com to progressively learn something so I decided to do something similar for my bootcamp capstone. The point I wanted to get across is GraphQL is such a universal idea that you can literally envision Game of Thrones characters scribbling queries on parchment and that would still be valid GraphQL.

Shoutouts are due to UnderExpress.com for the landing page components which made Show HN a few days ago and Codecademy for a proven UI I could shamelessly steal from (with styled-components). More code details written up here: http://www.swyx.io/graphql-of-thrones/

A little nervous since this was put together in a week with a lot of spit and glue but hoping it might help someone out there get to grips with GraphQL.

Yes, many people in your position can indeed get that mortgage and buy your house. But, it's a really big mortgage and a lot of people don't want to take that big of a financial risk for what is likely a small, average looking home on a small lot in the Bay Area. If you really, really want that house, then sure you can make it work (and more power to you, I hope you love it)! If you value financial freedom and not being tied down by debt, then the deal is not so good.

A $2,000 mortgage is not insane. A lot of people in the US can in fact afford a $2k mortgage.

The median full-time job in the US pays near $45,000. The median household income is near $60,000 today.

There are 127 million full-time employees in the US.

Or put another way, approximately 39% of all people in the labor force (~161 million) are earning at least $45,000 per year.

If you're in the top 1/3 of all full-time earners (40+ million people), you can afford a $2,000 mortgage by yourself. If 40+ million people in the US can afford something, it's not insane.

Two people with a full-time job, earning only the median, can very safely afford that $2,000 mortgage. The typical full-time median income person in the US will commonly not even have a four year degree, so this isn't a stretch premise in terms of requirements. If you want to hit $4k per month (the parent's scenario), the top 1/3 of households can manage that (tens of millions of people fall under that umbrella).

If you want to get into insane mortgage territory as it pertains to the median income, you're talking much higher. $8k-$10k+ style mortgages.
I put this in my ~/.xsession

# keyboard autorepeat delay / rate
xset r rate 170 30

It's tuned to my personal typing to be just slow enough that I never have accidental ddoublette kkeypresses, but fast enough that I can just hold down 'j' or 'k' in vim to move 10 or 15 lines (and easily hit the target). Using the mouse cannot even come close here (assuming you don't have your hand on it already). 15 lines would be 620ms here technically, so including the human factors it's still comfortably below a second. Really it makes a huge difference. (I saw this first in a talk by Edward Kmett).
Can confirm. I both recently sold my home, and used to be a licensed real estate appraiser before switching to Software Dev.

Our house in the not-super-desirable area of NE Portland was worth ~$265k when we looked at the data in late February/March of this year (strong data supporting that number). When we finally put it on the market in the beginning of May, it sold in 1 day, with multiple offers, for a sales price of $312k.

Yes, that's a $47k increase in value in just over 2 months. When spring hit, real estate prices went bonkers in Portland this year. Also, we bought the house for $160k ~five years ago.
I would assume most people would use an extension to generate swagger off their endpoints on demand. Thats what I do in ASP.NET, via a library called Swashbuckle: Swagger and Swagger UI in three lines of code.
In door air pollution includes outdoor air pollution as most people don't have much in the way of air filtration. So, they are not exactly separate categories independent of each other.

You even have edge cases like parking lot attendants / toll collectors who have vastly increased disease risks.
The essay I wish she had written would have said, "we don't need more 'secure messaging systems' -- we should be making all the following tools secure by design"

For example, (and whether you love them or hate them) Apple takes this seriously: your fingerprints don't leave the device and are implemented by a piece of hardware in such a way that even Apple doesn't have access to them. Compare that to the Android implementations which have fingerprints in the filesystem. I'm not intending to hold them up as some paragon, simply showing that securing information is more than just a messaging issue.
The bonds are traded on the markets, so in theory it could be anybody that can hold bonds and could change at any time.

What's "bad" in:

1. Having strong and documented boundaries at API level

2. Being able to generate clients from a server spec, so I don't have to write interop code anymore.

3. Being able to generate server client from a design document (the spec) - I did it just last week, and it works magically. Should I do it by hand?

Swagger is bad only if you use it wrong, like it's the case with SOAP, Java, and other things which have good parts but have been misused so many times people got pissed of them.
Awesome! They have been a great ally :)

Can I ask what you're using currently to deal with this issue?
I'd rather be convinced by the benefits of something than the disadvantages of what I'm already using. For me, Gmail works. Fastmail did not.

I'm not attacking Fastmail. I just didn't want to put in the effort to train the spam filters.
And by that argument, you could Butterfly Effect literally any action as having commerce implications and thus hyperextend the commerce clause into completely reshaping the balance of power between federal and state government. There are just a few supreme court decisions that very rapidly shifted our federal government from one of very limited and explicitly laid out powers, reserving all other powers for the states, to a federal government that has supremacy on almost every topic even several levels of indirection away from their explicitly stated powers.

This was effectively a revolution. The form and breadth of the federal government before and after this and other decisions that made their power nearly universal is as different as the federal government under the articles of confederation versus the constitutional federal government.

The original intention was to make a federal government of limited powers. Between the incredible expansions of the commerce clause and the necessary and proper clause to effectively cover every major aspect of daily life, and the supreme court decision that claimed that the 10th amendment was effectively a "noop", we've reached a system where the federal government has almost universal control. Then they finished up the final power grab by using the power of the purse by taxing more than they need to run federal programs and then only returning money to the states based on compliance with the rest of their agenda.

The dream that was a federal government with limited powers died along the way in the United States. Their power is almost universal today, and that was not the stated or written intention from the start.
Anything special about that particular mouse that makes it good for editing with ST?
This sounds similar to check "kiting" [link]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Check_kiting , that was popular before electronic checking transactions made it nearly impossible. "Kiting" was the art of having multiple checking accounts and passing ever-increasing amounts of money, from one account to the other. In the old days, it took a couple of days to process checks, especially when the back accounts resided in distinct federal reserve regions (which means the checks would physically traverse the federal reserve banks... which took days for delivery).

I can't see anywhere in the article where it says which version of linux this was tested on (beyond "2017"), which is a shame.

There are a lot of cases but I'm at work and can't spend too much time collecting much. The gist however is that they are bound by Swiss speech laws, which are very ambiguous. "Inciting violence" is one such example, but of course, they can't see what you are supposedly inciting, so they suspend you.
Yes, with pervasive CCTVs, porn filters, and Five Eyes, the UK has arguably lost your trust and you feel company X (google in your case) more closely aligns with your values, but you must realize that this corporatism is corrosive to democracy.

The government is you in proxy. You can vote out the government. You can sue it in court. You can blog about its abuses. You ARE the government.

And yet, here you are saying that you want some private company which does business with and operates under the jurisdiction of the government to receive and retain all your private data.

This company has no loyalty to you. Your interests are seldom in perfect alignment with its interests. Unless securing your data serves their business interests, they will not fight back if the UK government asks for your data.

You are introducing indirection in your interactions with your own duly elected government and that is going to cost you your voice in the direction the UK is headed.
Can someone point to what a "home theater personal computer" worth $8 looks like?

Amazon lists one of their things for $2369: https://www.amazon.com/Moneual-932BB-Home-Theater-PC/dp/B002..., close to the "fraudulent" invoice price. $2000 seems steep, but $8 seems preposterous.

I guess it depends when. The CPU (Intel Q9550) came out in 2008, presumably several hundreds bucks then but today nearly worthless.
It says “some experts” attribute this to housing costs, but nothing has really changed there in the last year (in fact in my opinion rents have softened somewhat). It seems to me the anti-immigration atmosphere is a more proximate cause.
Using stackoverflow/quora to answer questions and then link people to my blog for long reads as a fallback seems to work really well for me.

I have a similar priced home. My mortgage payment is around $4200. Doesn't include property taxes (around $12k/yr) and Home insurance ($1200/year). Some numbers above are way too high - HOA is $551 is generally for condos. My HOA is $60/month and in my previous neighborhood, didn't even have HOA. If can do 80-10-10, many banks won't charge mortgage insurance. So the OP's numbers are actually quite close.

To look at this article from my own viewpoint(who else's?), this is about "do I stop out now, wait, or move my stop loss and hope it turns around(hah!)".

Know when to keep going, but more importantly, know when to quit. Not knowing when to quit is how you go bankrupt, die, and/or cause other people to do either.
You may want to do something _and then_ throw the error, to let it reach the caller. In your example it would mean to run "closeThatLoader" and later throw the error. It's really cumbersome without `finally`

It always surprises me how little this tech community knows about the Direct Project, especially considering how many hundreds of thousands of people have direct addresses assigned to them.

This thing is in production very wide usage by health industry. And the applications for it continue to grow. For example FHIR via Direct promises to empower patients.

But yes, this particular implementation especially is PKI with identity vetting. There are other trust bundles with different logos and requirements.

But the direct project defines more than just the PKI. It defines edge protocols such as XDR and IMAP. It also defines methods for message delivery and processed notifications.

And of course you can create your own trust bundle with whatever requirements you want.

This particular accredited portion means that these organizations have particular identity vetting processes for users, have on site visits to inspect servers, and adhere to a long list of privacy and security practices.
I'm mainly annoyed by the association of Venezuela's disaster with socialism. What the voters "bought" was a populist system; the political underpinnings are almost entirely irrelevant.

If you saw how I live here in small-town Kansas working remotely for a typical SFBA salary, you might reconsider. It's a fantastic life for me and my family. Maybe it's where I'm at in my career but I've never had a hard time moving jobs, either. I get recruiters reaching out regularly for other remote gigs.
I would think that at least half of the domains mentioned are being used in some way by developers. So it's entirely possible to dogfood them.

That's more of a representation problem, isn't it? I'm not seeing where it would require any new development to produce such a graph - just a lot of CPU time to assemble one from a collection of FASTA files, or whatever linear representation.
