Destiny 2 has major issues with its "netcode" that other things like Skype and BitTorrent and Discord and generally webrtc don't have. I've played maybe 40-50 hours and will often get booted from parties and matches. At least a new leader is elected and it doesn't kill the whole instance. It also feels a little pathetic that I can hop around pve with two friends but as soon as a 3rd logs on our only options are pvp or the single raid (which we can't even help the newcommer grid towards since only 3 can do any of the leveling together). Maybe there's a bit of poor product clouding things but I suspect limitations are mostly due to poor technical planning. Not impressed with the netcodes.
Not successfully. By far the biggest advantage of RSS is its so easy to publish content to a feed. The more difficult we make that, the more we shoot ourselves in the foot.
Well, you’re free to compile the code yourself…

Who cares if you have to starve a few tens of millions of peasants to death to drag them into the industrial age?
it could be some combination of planned obsolescence and worse-is-better at play.
If you read my comment, I was talking about restrictions on WORK visas in the US, not refugees in Europe.
Hmm. It's all Google's fault. I don't have to wait for the manufacturer to update my Windows PC. Heck I was able to install Windows 7 on a Mac Mini without any support from Apple. Not to mention I updated a 9 year old Dell Core 2 Duo to Windows 10.
Ideally yes you would catch this problem during compile time. However apparently the situations where you need to provide an IList for something that really shouldn't be changed is common enough that they decided to provide this functionality in the ReadOnlyCollection.

Now if you read carefully you actually do need to jump through some hoops in order to get an exception.

First of all the methods aren't public, you need to explicitly convert the ReadOnlyCollectionto to an IList or ICollection to access them.

Secondly the dependency inversion principle requires that any ReadOnlyCollection is stored as an IReadOnlyList or some other appropriate interface, there should be no way to convert it to an IList accidentally.

And finally the ReadOnlyCollections seems to be designed for the very specific scenario where you can't solve things using interfaces and need to design a class that supports IList, but throws an exception when it is modified. In all other cases you should use something else.
Should we seed life through the cosmos using laser-driven ships?
Not sure why people were downvoting you. It's literally the only app on my machine that doesn't do this, and it is probably the #1 reason I don't want to switch to it. It's a major usability penalty for some macOS users.
Good catch, I haven't documented that yet.

There's a hard limit of 1,000 rows allowed to be returned at any one time. This is because the overhead of serializing more JSON that than could potentially lock up the server. If you try to pull more than that back you get a warning that the data has been truncated, e.g. https://fivethirtyeight.datasettes.com/fivethirtyeight-2628d... - in the JSON that shows up as "truncated": true

If that happens to you using raw SQL, it's up to you to implement offset/limit pagination.

If you are looking at a view, the tool implements offset/limit pagination for you e.g. https://parlgov.datasettes.com/parlgov-25f9855/view_election...

For iterating through a raw table, a more efficient mechanism is used: cursor-based pagination. The table is ordered by its primary key (or its rowid if no primary key was specified) and the "next" links say "get the next 100 items where the primary key is greater than this value" - e.g. https://parlgov.datasettes.com/parlgov-25f9855/cabinet_party...

This means even a table with millions of records can be efficiently paginated through - unlike offset/limit which tends to get slow after a few hundred thousand records.
Where do you see that the value of driving for Uber has gone up? I'll grant you that Uber customers are valuing the services more, but how much of that "value" should be going to the drivers vs. the programmers and support staff? How much should be divided among the accountants and cleaning staff at Uber offices? More importantly, who should be the one deciding what the most effective distribution of "value" should be -- maybe Uber should democratize it and ask you to vote on companywide compensation through their app? Let's cross our fingers their users have done their homework before voting, else the drivers and everyone else will have to find new jobs.
57 stable starts rolling out today (14/11).
Aling with easy distribution of ideas is an open enough political climate to foster such transference. Most governments from Rome to the Rennaisance were trying to lock down society to as little change as possible, such as routine wage & price controls, guilds ruling trades, many monopolies granted, etc. Luckily lots of wars kept shaking Europe up.

Also, the wealth surplus to allow men of means to experiment, the tech of working metal to decent tolerances in bulk quantity, and the mass production of paper.
Apple has allowed you to download the last compatible version for years - that ability goes as far back as at least iOS 5 that came out in 2012.
KRACK only compromises the client, not the AP (unless you have one in relay mode or something)
From that side, this is why I insist on only buying devices 'supported' by OpenWRT / LEDE.

LEDE, thanks to being open source, had a patch within days, which worked across all supported devices.

I would honestly just prefer the manufacturers 'give up' in house router software and instead contribute to the community software.
I think Computer Science is slowly headed in this direction.

I am usually able to find an Arxiv listing for most of the papers that I read.

I was talking about being falsely accused. All signs in his case are that he actually did it.
We tried working with it and this isn't really a thing - the support is non-existent, the documentation is lacking.

When contacted, they admitted that the only apps published using the Shoutem platform are ones that the company custom-built for some clients (their services are $10k+ a pop).

It sounds like this is just a marketing ploy and a way to get around Apple's new rules about app-builders.
Can you elaborate on "Fuck you, pay me".

Is this to say they don't care about outcomes just do the hours and get paid?

Anyway it's fine to offer people the chance to exercise and apply abstract thought in return for a steady paycheck. Those with a mortgage and kids will definitely appreciate it.
Everything has to be monkey proofed, going to the refreshment room when a monkey gang is around is like running the gauntlet ! We are talking really aggressive simians. But totally worth it, I could spend hours watching the monkeys. Surprised that we do not have a simian cognition research group on campus. The slender loris are really beautiful too but I have never seen them.

Yes and I'm sure that most people have both the time and the technical acumen to go through every line of the source code and ensure that there are no security vulnerabilities
Love the HN crowd here explaining that staying still on old tech full of security holes is a-ok. :)

Both Android and iOS have made awesome progress on all fronts, from security to stuff like AR and ML.

You can now have a supercomputer in your pocket - just using it for phone/texts is such a waste.
Require it for FDA approval
It's less true on iPhones but even there it starts happening after a few years. On Android, it's terrible.

But yeah, android was a total resource hog when it got started because of Java, and it's gotten worse and worse.
First They Came for the Back End Developers
Because anecdotal evidence of "everyone in your family" is more relevant than the numbers that Apple post that usually within a year, an overwhelming number of iOS users are on the latest version.
Wait what? ED absolutely has similar latency requirements as an FPS. The only difference is that you're in the cockpit of a spaceship dogfighting instead of controlling a person on the ground.
Learned some pretty interesting concept on this one with the notion of "Golden Hour":

In emergency medicine, the golden hour (also known as golden time) refers to a time period lasting for one hour, or less, following traumatic injury being sustained by a casualty or medical emergency, during which there is the highest likelihood that prompt medical treatment will prevent death.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_hour_(medicine)
That's only a problem because they're keeping driver support closed. If they contributed a driver for their hardware upstream it would be maintained (by others) as the internal interfaces and standards change.

Whenever a security issue or design change happened, their driver would also get updated and fixed with the rest of the kernel.

What the hardware manufacturers SHOULD do is create hardware with a well defined control interface that they CAN make public. Any 'secret sauce', uploaded firmware blobs, etc, should be free to re-distribute since they were too cheep to ship a ROM or EEPROM with the firmware for their device with the device.
If you type the letter “i” and it autocorrects to an “I️ ” update to iOS 11.1.1
+ 1 to this.
I didn't see it in the article, and so I wonder what the country breakdown for this might be. I get the impression that in the developing world, where android has really taken off, the ability to receive updates is diminished.
Sure, but will (networked) apps still work? Is it possible to download apps for previous versions still? If you can revert OS but can't run netflix/facebook/whatever then it's not very useful.
Try negotiating a fixed sum for the drafting the agreement. I think under $3K - $5K it can be doable, but also do a lot of sanity checks, e.g. provisions that you get everything back if the money is not paid in full, etc.

Professional lawyers do make mistakes, no matter how much they are paid.
What if white bosses said the same things about black employees? People's unit tests are tots broke.
With the sheer number of outdated devices still in use, one wonders what the real world rates of hacks look like.

I don't think that the two are linearly proportional at all unless individuals or groups are being specifically targeted.
The article says that he triaged 150 patients in 30-40 minutes, or one every 12-16 seconds(!!!), so it sounds like not spending the 20 seconds it would take to check for breathing may have been the right call?
I love these models and have been looking for LIDAR data for Budapest ever since I saw the London model.
Without SciHub and my access at MIT, most of the research I depend on would be out of bounds.
Not everyone doesn't want to work for other people.

I never want to be CEO. I am happy working for a great boss and with great colleagues. I'd be miserable working alone on a profitable solo business.

I have several other friends who explicitly like working at a big company for the stability, maturity, collaboration, and good pay check.

They have the option, but you're using psychology to trick them into thinking they don't.

You're using a medical science to manipulate people so you can make money. You're disgusting.
Windows has mostly kept a stable driver API.

And whenever they broke that API, that actually happened — suddenly updates stopped being usable by your system.

Also, be aware that ARM has nothing to enumerate devices, has no BISO or UEFI. An OS image will only ever work on a single device.

As I detailed in another comment in this thread, the issue is this collision of the Linux concept of mainlining everything, short support windows, manufacturers that can't update drivers for every microchip they sell all the time, and Google and OEMs somewhere in there.

It's always been a clusterfuck, Google didn't create it, but they sure made it worse.
And England didn't finally ban slave labor abroad until 1833 ... after the Industrial Revolution; arguably, they continued to benefit from the defacto slavery of colonialism until the 20th century.

I have no idea what you mean by this. I type something into google and I get a relevant result, exactly what I was looking for. I search DDG and... Sometimes I get what I'm looking for, other times I'm hunting through pages of results and eventually give up hope.

In what way is DDG better here exactly? I'm not buying it.
EffectiveDiscussions is a new alternative this year 2017. It's open source, or hosting for $2/month. (I'm developing it.)

Demo: https://www.kajmagnus.blog/new-embedded-comments
(That's a static website built with Gatsby.)

Read more about it: https://www.effectivediscussions.org/blog-comments (landing page, not finished)

Since it's new, it's a bit risky: maybe some bugs. & has some novel features, inspired by HackerNews actually: https://www.effectivediscussions.org/-32/how-hacker-news-can... (but that's not totally ported to embedded-comments yet). Currently implementing single-sign-on.
The breadth of thoughts you allow yourself is limiting your mind.
It's remarkable how fishy the whole ecosystem around Android ROMs and flashing tools really is.

95% of the posts are in barely comprehensible English. Seemingly every guide tells you to run a random binary from a file sharing host or generic domain.

As a rule, source code is non-existent. Downloads are attributable to a forum handle in the best case. Oh and you have to run it with elevated privileges to both your host computer and the device. Even the shadier warez communities have more accountability and trust.

In my opinion Google has really done a huge disservice by dropping support for their devices so rapidly and condoning planned obsolescence by handset manufacturers. They are directly responsible for channeling a significant fraction of Android users into this mess.
No matter who you choose to trust there are going to be no insurance that vulnerabilities are actually fixed. Its not a magic bullet.
People don't necessarily do things because they like them or want to. Addiction is a thing.

I was under the impression that it is not publicly known exactly why false positive bans were handed out or how many there were (outside of Bungie's initial communication of ~400 total). Do you have real information to support the claim you're making that "anyone using any kind of overlay" was banned?
Yes. I have a first generation iPad (running iOS 5) that I rediscovered when I moved. I reset it because I forgot the password. Hulu, Netflix, Crackle, theCW, Plex, Google Drive, CBS (?), and Spotify still work.

Apple's productivity apps (Pages,Numbers, and Keynote) also still work and sync with iCloud.

On the other hand, I also rediscovered an old first generation iPod Touch (iOS 3). Nothing that requires network access except for the built in apps still works.
You can to a degree. You’re able to install the last compatible version of an app.
As someone who goes as long as possible without performing updates, this is exactly the reason why.

Example: Last time I updated my iPhone, the music app got an update and now they are trying to shove iCloud down my throat. Not to mention needless UI changes when I was more than satisfied with how it was before.
You obviously don't understand the state of public finance in Missouri. They haven't changed their income tax brackets since the 1930s. They recently constitutionally banned sales taxes from being applied to services which guts their future ability to broaden their overly narrow sales tax base. They've basically cut their taxes in all the wrong ways so that actually funding their state is increasingly a problem.
Uber drivers don't get paid much regardless of the marketing schemes and of course they feel unappreciated and resentful because of that.

The real problem though is not that the pay isn't very good.

The problem is that within a few years the pay will go away completely in many places due to self-driving cars.

If people are lucky then they will still be able to make a small amount of money by letting some self-driving service use their car and cleaning it out now and then. But eventually the fleets will be owned by the companies.

(What did you mean with "look ... in terms of complexity"? You mean how-complicated-it-is-to-install?)
That's often not that simple.

For example, SAMSUNG might build your device, and get all of their own code openly.

But now for the US model, due to CDMA, they need to use a Qualcomm processor.

That needs a blob, and Qualcomm won't release that under an open license, nor update it.

So the OEM can either just not have CDMA support, or accept foreign blobs.

It works like this all way down the stack, down to even camera chips.

And then these devices all have custom hardware. Often hundreds of customly designed parts, with custom drivers, only ever for a single device.

Think of the Moto Z Play, withthe replacable components. Samsung phones with facial scanners. LG phones with 3D display.

One-off features that'd never get mainlined.

Its not. Qatar Airways made my no fly list recently, they used to be great but densification on 777 is painful, especially after stepping off an equally cramped new sardineliner. Back to above-average Emirates and A380, the densification programs esp on 777,and new cans like 787, have actually made aircraft like a380, a330, and 747 rate higher than ever.

As with all eras, there's always a backlash against sounds and genres as they become overplayed and predictable, and people start cashing in on it rather than making it for the love of it. I don't think it's entirely fair to pin it on one instrument as being the cause of it, especially given how well some of the songs made with it have weathered the test of time.

Digital sounds in popular music went through that backlash in the 90s and early 2000s. Nothing could have prevented the backlash, and no one thing caused it. It happened to disco in the 80s and 90s when it was the butt of jokes, which then saw a solid resurgence in the 2010s with the pinnacle being Daft Punk making what was effectively a disco album.

DX7 was responsible for more hit synth sounds in the mid to late 80s than any other synth (probably, though there were some other contenders, and a few analog signal path, digitally controlled, synths that definitely had a big impact during the same era...the Prophet and the Roland JX-8P come to mind as instruments that would have often appeared alongside the DX7 on record). And, many of those songs are still loved and played today...and often continued to be played throughout the anti-digital era of the late 90s until the early 2000s when we started seeing EDM producers and others begin to reintegrate FM synthesis and other digital techniques into their sound (dubstep is all about FM synthesis, for example...those big angry swooshy wubby noises are often FM synths).
From the article regarding cranes: "According to the Rider Levett Bucknall Crane Index, in Q4 2017 between Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane, there are now 586 cranes in operation, with a total of 685 across all capital cities, 80% of which are focused on building apartments. There are 350 cranes in Sydney alone."

From the article regarding Chinese investment:
"Foreign investment across all countries into real estate as a whole was the largest sector for foreign investment approval at $112 billion, accounting for around 50% of all FIRB approvals by value and 97% by count across all sectors - agriculture, forestry, manufacturing, tourism - you name it in 2015-16."

And:
"Around $32 billion invested in real estate was from Chinese investors in 2015-16, making it the largest investment in an industry sector by a country by far."

That's $32b of the $112b in real estate.

I don't know about that. I was a solo player and found my way into a clan, where I can now group with like-minded people.

I, like the parent poster, am running the latest update for my phone. Yes, I know I'm a walking vulnerability, but short of purchasing a new phone, there is nothing I can do about it. IIRC, updates for my device were cut off before it was even out of warranty, and I'm sorry, I'm not dropping — I can't drop — $600 every year and a half on new hardware just to get new software. Vendors need to support devices for the actual lifetime of the device.
