> They all ended up in West Virginia, not exactly the America you dream of when you come from Chennai or Bangalore. Probably not even when you come from Biel.

I find these type of statements pretty racist. I mean what does it have to do with the reporting? I'm not sure it adds to the dramatic narrative/buildup. Having said that, I suppose for most people who move to the US, there is a certain picture in mind of New York and LA among other things, so there's that. But it sounds racist in the back of my head, not to mention the IT part.
Where's the catch?

> I will consider myself to have won that round, not lost ;P.

If fame and victory are what your company is going after, instead of taking care of your potential users, then I am sorry that you won't have my support.

Btw, thank you for creating cydia if you were the author.
You can't make a difference; there is no three: it's all one object.

If you want an empty list that isn't nil, you have to implement your own list type.

If you want a symbol called "NIL" that isn't self-evaluating and Boolean false, you have to use your own package.
> Most people would probably be just fine with their spouse having another best friend of the same gender, but definitely not of the opposite.

It seems to me that people to whom this makes a difference are both extremely insecure in their partner’s loyalty and extremely secure in their partner’s exclusive heterosexuality.

Take away the former and the concern disappears, take away the latter and the concern remains without the gender disparity.
Sounds useful, but I'm not comfortable with the idea that anyone can recognize my face and pull up information about me by virtue of wearing something on their face. Sounds a little too much like Black Mirror to me.

I wonder how many other people feel the same way. My belief is that if you don't recognize me, you should have to ask me for information about myself. I'd rather not any random stranger be able to just know.
Great artists ship.
There are different kinds of attacks. This one, and related ones that minutely change the input, require you to know some details about the model. There are other kinds of attacks, where you don't need to know what the specific model is. For example, http://rocknrollnerd.github.io/ml/2015/05/27/leopard-sofa.ht...

The fundamental problem is that there are only so many training examples and layers that you can fit in a gpu's memory. The current state of the art neural networks work well for very specific tasks (ie handwriting recognition), but don't generalize.
+1000 this is what I use and it's amazing.
Like enforcement?
But there’s no money to be made with that. The people who would use them are already using Snapchat, so the conversion rate would be 0%
Also, a response to some of the mitigation’s suggested here:

1. Prevent people from reusing passwords from other websites/lists.

Fail: you shouldn’t know if the pw is the same as any other pw. If you can tell, you are already doing it wrong.

PW + random salt protects you against reused passwords. If your application is able to compare other passwords to the current password, not only did the othe site fuck up, but you did too.

(re)Captcha: fuck you. Even if it’s after the second failed attempt. Fuck you. I hate you.

You are implementing security theater, making everything worse for the user, and killing your conversation rate for everyone but spammers,who have this down pat.

Pushing x numbers of rules, whether or not they are special characters or not. 8 vs. 10 doesn’t matter that much.

Push passphrases instead.

Multi-factor is sort-of okay, but the implementations are garbage and the user experience is awful.

I’m not a security expert or a researcher. I’m a data engineer with a lot of web app experience.

But most of the advice in this thread is total garbage.

Web apps need to find a way to make the gold-standard of authentication accessible to users: per-device public/private key pairs.

Until we do that well, we suck at life and our jobs compared to native apps.

I include myself when I say that we have held ourselves to an incredibly low standard.

OWASP is a pathetically low bar. Yet we often fail.

It’s time to step up our game, people. And it’s on us to do it.
Wise words, thanks for this thread.
Does this publication bring any value as it was known well before that such thing is possible? Or no-one had measured how many pictures can be "transformed" by changing only 1 pixel?
So, I don't know your mother, and can't say what kind of extreme technical needs she might have as part of her lifestyle or job; but, I guess I will presume you asked this question from the depressingly stereotypical perspective of "assuming peoples' mothers are not very technically skilled as they are older women, how would a mother use it" and answer your question anyway :(.

So, she might not use the first version, and if she does it might be installed or otherwise set up by you (so this hinges a lot on how much she trusts you ;P) or another friend of hers. However, we are building a simple user interface to make the experience of using it friendly and pleasant, and I guess it is worth adding that we also chose a name that we hope does not turn non-technical users away ;P.
> What does that mean? "We are just going through the motions cuz we gotta. Kind of like plunging the toilet."?

In a sense, perhaps. A lot of people get into a pattern where they're busy with other things and unable to have the kind of romantic setup they had before. But, on the other hand, people generally enjoy sex even if they have to do something unromantic like set a time on a calendar and just stick to it, and it has the effect of deepening their relationship.
Took me a while to find, but this method apparently only increases the life span of mice by 25%. Given how mice are prey animals - i.e. they aren't meant to live long - I don't anticipate the same results with Humans. Although, it may help reduce risks of diseases.

It'll be interesting to see results.

But the really interesting thing is not what Google can do with the ad exchange. But what they can do with that ad buy data in order to reconstruct the sales numbers for a company and unfairly play the derivitives markets around it's earnings call. When I say unfairly, I mean that ONLY google is privy to such knowlege. If there is any reason to think that insider trading is wrong, then Google would be similarly in the wrong here.
Employers know a lot more about salaries than you do, considering they have a lot more information points, reliable information data than you. The information asymmetry is too pronounced to be overcome by mere negotiation tactics.

Or, you know, you can make time for each other because this is the most important person in your life. Instead of making excuses.

Viewing a spouse in terms of a friendship is not helpful in my opinion. Marriage is sui generis. It is, especially if you have kids, an economic and financial partnership. I think my wife is funny and I like spending time with her, but what really lets me sleep deeply at night is that she’s highly capable and professionally successful. I could die tomorrow and my daughter would be well provided for. It’s not something I appreciated when I was young and had fanciful ideas about western love marriage, but is definitely something I appreciate now that I’m old.
Absolutely. You and your wife should present a unified front. Solid advice. The wives are all complaining to each other, though. And then those women tell whoever they're dating or married to. So the only people who know about your personal problems are you, your wife, her friends, and the people her friends are with. And that's the best you can hope for while maintaining your own, perfect, unified front. Amen.

Wait, I forgot about family!
"Going through the motions" involves making time for each other.

Their point is that the lifespan increase is probably unique to mice. Mice are designed to die quickly.
The prof should sue the students for harassment and tortuous interference. The student's are preventing the prof from doing her job and fulfilling her duties to the University.
Is getting to know the model of the classifier so difficult? I mean, for an API, is it not possible to deduce the internal structure of the system based on the Input-output combination?? Just asking.
The shift has been taking hold for about a decade. Educators have been teaching these students these tactics. No surprise they're being used against them.
Most marriages do not involve two equally-successful professionals, and at least in my case from a purely financial perspective marrying a foreign woman with no real contacts in the US besides me wasn't very advantageous (I should probably clarify that I met my wife abroad because it sounds like I'm talking about a mail-order bride). Nevertheless I think it was worth doing for the tremendously positive effect it's had on my happiness and well-being.

I guess if I had kids I'd have to think about a life insurance policy (I occasionally think about doing that just for my wife).
Combined with collective bargaining, not so much.

Star-system employment as well, mentioned for completeness, though that doesn't scale to populations: everybody cannot be a star.
To "win" here means "win a battle on the road to an Internet free of surveillance". I (personally) firmly believe that if China were to do that, that the people would not stand for it; any form of "half solution" or "compromise position" where the Chinese govnerment can block just enough to remove access to material that bothers them while only minority inconveniencing users, is a world in which this form of freedom is actually less likely, as people are willing to tolerate a sad lot before try finally snap back :/.

It is also worth noting that if they went that far, at least some of the other Western countries that are currently willing to tolerate their seemingly-limited control over the Internet would no longer feel comfortable standing idly by and might have to start making resolutions against them. Again: forcing that chess move from them would, in my (personal) book, be a strong win in this fight.

FWIW, you seem to be taking a very short-term definition of "taking care of your potential users" that I have sometimes seen in attempts to make excuses for Apple over the past decade of my work on Cydia (such as when I have stated that one of my "win conditions" for Cydia Impactor is for Apple to remove entirely the Free Developer profile system), and I (personally: I do not speak for anyone else on my team when I say this) do not feel the loss of your support on this particular day (though maintain hope that in a few years you will thank us as you have now me for Cydia).
So are we. You think 80 some odd years is a long time?

Even if there is 0% increase in median lifespan, they describe many effects which would make aging a much less miserable and debilitating experience. That alone is a win. Take this bit:

And, yeah, less of a decline in fitness would be nice, too.
The 2016 election was a comedy of errors (I agree with you fully) in essence:

Hillary Clinton = The (corrupt) system is fine.
Bernie Sanders = Let's fix the (corrupt) system.
Donald Trump = Let's burn the (corrupt) system down.

Trump winning broke down the propaganda model in the US, which has degenerated from Manufactured Consent to some sort of continual moral panic ala "The True Believer." The harder the media pressed on Trump-- the more popular he became.

Perhaps calling your potential voters "deplorable" while accusing them of being sexists and racists, while undermining democracy itself (Bernie Sanders), was not a recipe for success. The Clinton's corruption is well known to the world.

I hate to say this, but Bill and Hillary's proven TREASON pales in comparison to the garden-variety sexism Trump was acused of.

The hysteria over Trump is just that-- hysteria. The fact is the Democratic party offered an objectively worse candidate. Both were "shit sandwiches."

Should Women Give Up the Power That Comes with Being Objectified?
I don't think you and I are on the same page here.

I was married for 22 years. Setting a date and keeping an appointment was not how we handled it. I had a friend who would call me to bitch about how her and her husband did it once a month, they were just too busy and did not have time, etc. My husband would walk in and start making snarky remarks while I was on the phone and I would shush him.

When they were busy, this couple recorded their favorite shows during the week and watched them together on Saturday night. They did not lack the time. They just thought X Files was vastly more important than having a love life.

That was not at all how my marriage worked. I quit being sympathetic. I made polite noises and tried to change the subject.

> Anyway. What gets me is like: Password authentication SUCKS. It's a terrible terrible authentication strategy. It's awful. It should not be relied upon. It would be good if humans didn't reuse passwords. But we do. So it sucks.

There's an easy solution for this! Have I been Pwned offers a free API [0] you can use to check if a password has been in a previous breach.

If the password was previously disclosed in a breach, simply inform the user politely "Sorry, this password has previously been previously disclosed and will likely be used by attackers to compromise your account" and make them pick a new one.

No need for 2FA. Simply add a check to prevent users from re-using passwords.

(If you don't want to start sending user passwords to HIBP, you can also download the list and use it internally)

I'm not sure where I came across this concept, but I've heard the use of a terminal described as entering into an interactive conversation with the computer.

That is, where users of a point-and-click interface might interact with a computer superficially, the command-line allows for a fluidity of expression and progression of intent that it's extremely difficult to supplant.

When you realize this, the mistake this comic makes is obvious: the command-line is, for many problem domains, simply a superior method of human-computer interaction. In fact, in many ways, it's the GUI that squanders the immense power we have at our fingertips, as it frequently makes it more difficult to express intent rather than less.

For example, here's a basic task: Find all files in a given directory with spaces in their names, and replace those spaces with underscores.

At a command-line I can think of any number of ways to solve this problem. I'd probably opt for a combination of find, sed, and bash looping.

Now try to do this efficiently in any existing GUI interface that isn't purpose built for this exact operation.

The conversations we enter into on the command-line allow us to iteratively build up solutions to problems, solving them with simple, composable tools. There is simply no GUI equivalent.
Ugh, this article gets a number of things wrong. "Hacking" a portal in Ingress is just resource collection, sort of like visiting pokestops in PoGo (in fact, the portals are pokestops in Niantic's database). You have to "capture" portals by destroying them. Of course, if the portal is owned by the other team, they can recharge them as you attack them essentially making you play against other players in real time. Ingress is pretty competitive that way, since you play directly against the other team.
No, the primary purpose of range-v3 is to work with ranges (a container, a pair of iterators, or a view) instead of iterators. Lazy and pipeable (i.e. chainable) views are built on top of this.

I think AR sunglasses could be big just needs the right execution.

Maybe it only allows you to see things in the real world based on QR codes embedded in real world objects like objects in a museum and other places where businesses, organizations or governments embeds AR qr codes. The heavy computing lifting is done not in the glasses but in the displays. Possibly making the glasses cheap and barely bulkier then current sunglasses.

Also this way distribution of such glasses could be like 3D glasses ... pay ticket for museum tour and get Their AR glasses for the tour.

A good introduction to AR glasses in the market and other businesses could do the same.
I have friends who are learning Japanese so I sent them an email with a link to your site. Hope some of them sign up.

I did a quick Google with "Learning Japanese" and "Learning Kanji" and could not find your site on the first page for either. You might want to consider buying some ad-words to steer potential users your way.

If you know your market well, then you would be aware of the many other sites that aim to teach Japanese. To be successful, you need to identify how you can differentiate your site and offer a more compelling USP. Easier said than done, unfortunately.

I can see that you are passionate. But I would suggest that you read "4 Steps to Epiphany" and peruse SteveBlank.com. You should be able to refine your business development by following his guidelines.

Good luck!

I think you might have misunderstood what I mean by "taking care of your potential users". It is not a short-term definition. On the contrary, I want a long-term solution, where users trust the platform that your company provides, trust that your company will be there for the users when Chinese government bans your software, instead of celebrating the ban as a success and call it a day (like what Google did).

To celebrate the banning of your platform would be what I call a short-term solution, because in the long run, it is merely a temporary attempt at solving the problem, that people will eventually forget when a long-term solution prevails. Chinese people, from all spectrum of political views alike, do not thank Google for exiting China, because it does not solve their problem. The act merely throws the problem into limbo state awaiting for other people to solve.

Also, I think you mixed up "support" and "gratitude". I thank you for creating Cydia as well as attempting to solve this problem with surveillance and censorship, as always. However, I disagree with your approach and therefore will not support this platform unless I can see that you have something bigger in mind beyond "celebrating being banned".

Maybe it's fresh in my mind because it's Halloween, but normal Canadians can't cover their face in many public places. Most businesses around here have signs up right now (for Halloween) saying they won't serve you if you have your face covered, you can't get government services or get an ID card with your face covered, etc... But there's one (religious) group in Canada that are allowed to cover their faces. This has also caused a lot of controversy in Quebec when they recently moved to make the law apply evenly to everyone.

Paraphrase: "These large corporations do not look or act as trusts, so we need to make new antitrust rules to target them."

If it doesn't quack like a duck, and a duck gun doesn't work against it, maybe it's not a duck?

If it's an issue with data collection or privacy, why even talk about antitrust? If you break Google up into five smaller companies, you don't actually shrink the amount of information collected, you actually just grew it 5x as much!

Why not just pass laws specific about the data collection if that's actually the issue?
