Oh man, planning my wedding was a lot of stress. The only thing I could think of to make it even more stressful? Adding JIRA to the mix.

Compare the ratio of support from their members, and the parties are not equivalent. Even if there is plenty of support from across the isle to pass these measures.

So, if you want to shift parties you need to get into the primary process.

One step deeper, there is a lot of popular support in the US for these measures. Nobody wants to face "Did not vote to keep you safe" attack add when that's going to resonate with people.
the movie sucked but at least this satire review was funny
Yeah, maybe we should look at the average daily transaction count and average fee per transaction.
ISTM that high frequency offers/bids that are not meant to complete will tend to become noise that the market filters. That's my sense, though admittedly I don't know enough and have no data to back that up. And when such offers/bids do complete, they really are market making. Either way, this is helping the market discover the price -- you call label this with "exploit", but it's not clear that that's anything but bias.

Normal market making too could be seen as exploitation. Suppose the market is crashing. Without market makers the market ceases to function and uncertainty worsens. With market makers the market functions and crashes as much as it wants to. So your stock holdings lose value and here's a market maker glad to help that happen. How is that not "exploitation"?

Politics is a war of words, I get that. I guess I should be happy that nowadays we don't punish market makers.
Over the last couple of years, there's been huge progress in making end-to-end encryption practical for "real world" apps -- especially stuff running in web browsers. Signal is part of that, of course, as is WebRTC, a standard that to its great credit did an excellent job with the encryption pieces from the very beginning.

We built our video calling app, Daily.co, on top of WebRTC and so we could relatively easily include end-to-end encryption from the day we launched.

A few things make e2e harder as you scale up. One is that metadata gets more and more important, for a lot of reasons, as you add features and try to grow a business. As has been pointed out here, Skype was end-to-end encrypted in the pre-Microsoft days.

Another challenge is that it's a lot easier to build e2e encryption for mesh network topologies than if you're routing things through central servers. For video calling, mesh networking breaks down as you add more users to a call. For us, that means we're e2e encrypted up to 4 people in a call. After that, we're forwarding video streams through our servers in the cloud, and we don't do e2e encryption anymore. (Not that we wouldn't like to, it's just a much heavier development lift.)
Personally, I hope OMG will become the go to for remittance in the crypto world. Much prefer something decentralized and community focused.
Does anyone know if there is a place where representatives put their reasoning behind votes?

Yes - by reinforcing in people that confidence is disjoint from competence, and that 'trust-but-verify' is the best policy when evaluating people's competence.

That's the worldview I am talking about. I am not going to try and simplify it to fit into a single comment.
I never said it was all it does. It's the reason AMP exists, and the reason certain users like it.

Strategically, for google, owning the frame around the web and a bit of js on each web page is vastly more valuable than customers having faster web pages.

So no, speeding up web pages is not why AMP exists.
The economist's dirty secret is that it's mostly written by a bunch of cheap graduates.
You're not addressing the problem area the author is looking at though, which is lead generation (finding new molecules that either have high binding affinity to a receptor and/or might be useful for a given medical application).
I would pay for a social network that can offer a simple UI, that works on any device (have you tried to use Instagram on an iPad Pro), and that can help me switch between private, anonymous, and public posts intermittently.
Speaking as a paying user, I see speeds way higher than what you see.

That doesn't confirm your hypothesis, but it's a counterpoint I suppose.
There is a much longer answer to that question. SK and Japan only make up 5% of the asian population, many parts of asia are not well tested for these drugs. We're actually in the process of working with a large pharmaceutical company on a multi-country diabetes prevention trial in Asia because traditionally they have not been tested on as much as necessary. As well the companies there will run many of their trials in the US as well as Asia but our larger population (as well as running the trials in mostly white continents such as Australia and Europe) still causes quite a large discrepancy. We could do a whole other article on this topic.
The problem is that what you call guarantees weren't guarantees to begin with, and we can't be sure they are now.

The whole native English-speaking world is heading this way, things like singular vs plural and even past tense are going the way of the dinosaur (and that's without getting into subtler things like much vs many).

Interestingly, one of the first things I noticed in Germany is that almost everyone speaks and writes better English than people from the UK and US.
This isn't what happened at all, and I suspect you know that. For starters, the dossier wasn't the beginning of the investigation, as we've seen in multiple articles that came out over the last few weeks. Also, Trump was NEVER "wire tapped," unless you are privy to information the rest of the world doesn't have, and the only reason his "associates" were caught up in surveillance reports is because they called criminals who were already under surveillance. It's like if the FBI is wire-tapping Al Capone, and you called Al Capone. Sure, you'd get listened to, but they aren't tapping YOU.
American slaves weren't safe, so there wasn't a trade-off there.

The interesting story in this post is not about JS frameworks. It is about StackOverflow.

The Ember community made a proactive decision to abandon StackOverflow around the 2.0 release (about 2.5 years ago). StackOverflow simply does not provide the tools we needed. For example when you answer a question: Are you answering for version 1.0 of a library? 2.0? Perhaps the "correct" answer for each is different. Perhaps, over time, an answer that once was correct is now suggesting something deprecated or not in line with best practices.

StackOverflow doesn't provide any features for dealing with versioning and changes in what is correct over time.

If your community has a StackOverflow moderator, perhaps you can update all the answers you want on a regular basis. I don't know, because our community had no such person, and the StackOverflow team was disinterested in helping us come up with a solution (the Ember project reached out).

Additionally as a tool matures (Ember is over 5 years old) you take more of this stuff under your own wing. Ember has a robust set of companies offering video training, in person training, and books. We have a community chat, a forum, and very active meetups. All of these things are controlled by members of our community, meaning they can respond to changes more fluidly than StackOverflow (moderated by some people outside our community) ever could.

StackOverflow just is not designed for long-lived multi-versioned software. So guess what happens? Users of that software don't stick around on StackOverflow. For living projects the short-term trend will almost always look better than long-term trends.

Ember's story here is not universal. I'm glad there are developers finding StackOverflow useful for other libraries. I think the story StackOverflow should tell is one that focuses on what they do well. But to draw a meaningful lesson about the JS community as a whole from such a idiosyncratic data source is a fools errand.

Normally a country can reject a diplomat's entry into the country. Which makes sense, given the extent of diplomatic immunity. Therefore it does make sense that one cannot willy nilly change a person's diplomatic status while in country.

Java: YouMotherFocker
Heh, reminds me of my college buddy's futile search for infinite compression. He wanted to be able to compress any file down to a 0 or a 1.
It's not languages but compilers that protect against stack overflow. Rust has contributed code to LLVM that causes stack overflows to abort the process (via guard pages and stack cookies), which means that theoretically you could enable this for C and C++ as well. See https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/16012

1. Nothing is preposterous in crypto. 2. Yes, I said $5 is more reasonable.
Classic stereo, wideband FM broadcast also sounds great when you have a good signal and good production.

In theory, the newer HD Radio scheme can provide equivalent or better quality even with marginal signals, but most broadcasters choose to continue regular FM simulcast and subdivide the remaining digital bandwidth across multiple virtual channels. This results in audible compression artifacts on most stations.
I take no solace in typical cryptography as it does nothing to hide most metadata. Who I talk to, when, how often (and the same for websites visited) is way more sensitive in the collective than the contents of any single one of those interactions.

Signal type apps hide both and are valuable, but without widespread adoption is meaningless to most people.

I'm not against any of the progress you cite, but so long as people can be targeted based on metadata they are at risk. Once targeted, it becomes child's play to bypass the encryption that most people employ, whether through social engineering or side channel attacks (beyond Spectre-type) or governmental requests/threats to cloud providers.
You seem to have been downvoted, possibly for how quippy your comment is, but there's some indication that this reasoning isn't far off. Earlier this week Trump made clear during his televised immigration policy meeting that he would sign anything Congress actually sent him, which seems like a very odd position to take when you consider that immigration was Trump's signature campaign issue.
Just because the number of questions decreases about a framework does not mean people have stopped using the framework. I ask very few questions because I am normally working behind the bleeding edge and can get my questions answered simply by searching.
I honestly don't know a ton about cryptocurrencies, but I though confirmed transactions were.....more or less whole point? can you give me an ELI5 version of why 0-confirmation transactions are ok?
I think the simplest fix to this sentence is to pluralize the word "minority."

"With more than 50 percent of the population estimated to be minorities by 2044,..."

No need for verbosity or weird terms that require a trip to Wikipedia.
That could be the idea, but currently it seems Angular devs are more open to that idea, given that WebComponents are mostly driven by Google.

Currently only HTML Imports seem to be a point of disagreement.

I am looking forward to them, as they can be the way for more sanity on Web development.
In skimming through the StackOverflow privacy statement it certainly appears that they disclose the collection of IP addresses and use of that information to report aggregated data ("we may publicly display information that is not personally identifying in the aggregate").
Like almost all problems in life you have only 4 options:

#1 Change you (accept what you are unable to change)

#2 Change the other (convince them to follow your vision)

#3 Fly (divorce, quit)

#4 Stay and suffer (include drinking, doing drugs, whining)

It is amazing how many people chose number 4.
Why we need tools like git-dit (2017)
Or the desktop client on OSX keeps asking for admin privileges to install some helper tool every other day, with no explanation for why that's necessary.
It was only true for glibc as well, and its no longer true as unexec got ripped out of glibc recently as only emacs was using it.
The idea of the noble savage is problematic given that "society" is the product of individuals. To say society corrupts the individual means that that which is caused by individuals (society) corrupts the individual. It would follow that individuals are the source of their own corruption.
If you think this is weird, what about the "shake to undo" thing? :-)

Seriously, try to e.g. delete an email from the system's mail app, then vigorously shake your phone in anger. A popup asking you to "Undo delete" should appear on the screen (Many applications hook into this seemingly standard undo mechanism on iOS).

Some things in iOS are objectively weird and unintuitive but I miss them so much whenever I use an Android phone.
What about the problem of competitors copying your contract? Since all blockchain code is open. Isn't that a real problem developing Dapps?

The main lesson I take from the paper is that self assessments aren't worth all that much.

So when someone says they are good at something, don't just take their word for it.
As far as I know, this is true for the Symbolics Ivory CPUs, yes. That said, these flaws would be irrelevant, if so, because the system built upon the hardware did not enforce modern process isolation paradigms.
Not my representative, bu Justin Amash, an R from Michigan's 3rd District, posts the rationale for why he voted how he voted on most bills on Facebook.

That's either a big waste of silicon or a very hard problem.

On a related topic, I know someone who worked on CPU/FPGA hybrid architectures. The idea was to move processes between CPUs and FPGAs. Awesome stuff, realtime processes offloaded to the FPGA get to run completely off the CPU, with ridiculously low latencies. The issue is that you really have to design your code for it.
If you forbid self-recursive functions, the required depth of stack can be statically analyzed. I believe such tools exist even for (a feature-limited subset of) C.
Well, I guess nations do that all the time. Certainly I've heard of it in the last year or so.

In a legal manner (and not because I'm a UK citizen) I presume the host nation can decline and then the proposing nation can find another one or send them anyway but risk that he falls foul of the law and the host country does not recognise any diplomatic immunity. In this case though, if the UK declines then he is still stuck in there with no way out.

I think its kind of strange really that we have spent all this money pursuing this guy for what was a minor warrant (that they wanted to speak to him) which has since been cancelled and think that we (the UK) should just say enough already and turn a blind eye to him leaving on a jet plane. Oh yeah, but the strange part is that it really seems as if its important to somebody that that doesn't happen.
In case the error gets fixed, will you guys clarify what you are referring to?

Do you want it to say "crypto-currency game in town" instead of "game in crypto-currency town"?
> I have dim memories of dozens of C++/Java/Python/Ruby/etc. next-big-things.

While true, none of them have changed so quickly as JavaScript ones, which seem driven by devs eager to create portfolios on Github.
It’s not ridiculous. It means that by 2044, estimates are that over 50% of the population will be part of a minority group, and the largest single group (whites) will no longer be a majority of the population. The minority groups will individually still be smaller than the largest group.
think that's the norm, really. Usually it is more a rubber stamping formality (Russia / Trump's US-to-Russia diplomat pick), but I imagine a country could reject a diplomat, especially if said the host country has a previous issue with the diplomat in question.

I'm a bit shocked at how brazen it is, honestly. Perhaps, if anything, it implies that Britain doesn't view Assange as a big issue anymore as doing what Ecuador did last month would almost certainly be viewed as a diplomatic slap in the face otherwise. It almost reads like their response was "haha--no"
You also have to take into consideration that the Vue community has the most Chinese devs of the JS SPA contenders and that might be reflected super well by SO data.
That makes him part of the EU power structure, not the UK power structure.

Well it would also make sense. I just didn't want to gamble on it.

Maybe I will contact the support and ask them.
While it certainly would help to get the very best teachers working with the most challenged students, there is some research saying that it's really not the best approach because teacher quality has a less of an effect on student achievement than the social conditions of students.

Or maybe they actually see something that other people are failing to see.

I was in a position like that a few years ago. A manager a few levels above me had done a severely flawed study, and proposed completely restructuring our company's revenue model based on the results. He pitched it to us before going to the executive team. I pointed out that his numbers were too small to achieve statistical significance, and he was inconsistent in how he calculated the key metric in the study.

Another engineer in the room indicated that they were also concerned that he was proposing a massive change to our company based on very shaky evidence. Other people mostly sat quiet, too scared to make the manager angry.

And indeed, he got pretty pissed. He pretty much told me to shut up, and I let it go. I really wish I hadn't, because the results were even worse than I'd imagined.

He took it to the executives who loved it, and promptly restructured the company. We lost 2/3 of our revenue almost overnight. Investors were furious, and many of them sued us. Most of the executives were forced out, and the company was sold off for a tiny fraction of its previous value to one of our competitors.

The acquisition didn't go well. A lot of my co-workers lost their jobs in the process. I was fine because I saw the writing on the wall, and I started interviewing almost as soon as that disastrous meeting adjourned. I was long gone by the time the hammer fell.

I feel really shitty about being bullied into silence. I saved my own ass, but dozens of people lost their jobs. I could have fought harder for them. Yeah, I probably would have made things worse for myself, and I might have even gotten fired. I still feel like I did the wrong thing.
An obsession with proof leads to the sort of sterile, unresolvable discussion that you describe in your first post. It is much more productive to make some defeasible assumptions and then look for evidence one way or another.
Don’t worry, they’ll make sure to replace teams with something else as soon as teams threatens to become a universal solution for business.

Agreed, the problem with Skype is not end-to-end encryption.

IMHO the last update killed it, awful interface and less features

major changes:

- the "favourites" list (useful) now it's a global directory (useless)

- cannot screen-share a window, only the whole screen (you start hearing the fan very soon on a 5k desktop)

- text chat is now 3 centimeters wide, regardless of screen size (=> useless, in particular if you are in an audio+text call)
As Wyden[1] points out, Congress has nearly no information on what impact the FISA program has. How many Americans are targeted already? The military refuses to answer Congress. How many emails & other collections are swept up? The military refuses to answer to Congress.

This bill explicitly allows it's use directly against Americans and declares which circumstances the FBI & other agencies need to use warrants and where these agencies will now be permitted warrantless access to FISA collections.

"Abouts" collection has a direct means to being permitted again. Ever use the word Benghazi in an email? Ok, all your communication might be wiretapped from now on. If the FBI ever wants to investigate you for something non terrorism related, something totally unrelated to Benghazi? No problem. Maybe- in some cases- they MIGHT need a warrant.

Just Security had a great writeup[2]. This bill is a travesty, especially given that Congress has again and again asked for some information to inform them about how FISA is being used already, and the military has stonewalled and stonewalled and stonewalled. That congress would radically expand these powers, let them now directly target Americans, and would allow the FBI & others access to this program, after being continually rebuffed, AND would make this program unable to be challenged in court- it's the pinnacle of madness. It's complete dereliction of duty by congress, and one of the saddest moments of cowardice in the US Governments history that we'd stoop so low.

>And then, perhaps spreading those students out into classes and schools among students who do value education won't mask that problem, but actually change the attitudes and eventually behaviors of those you are trying to help.

Or perhaps, negatively change the attitudes and behaviors of those student it's being assumed don't need help.

Perhaps a life boat (a high-performing school amidst a sea of mediocrity) is only so big.
"read the options agreement carefully and ensure your interests are well protected."

It's worth noting that, in nearly all cases, you will not receive an options agreement until well after you have accepted the offer.

I've never tried to ask for an options agreement prior to accepting an offer, but I'd imagine it would be a very difficult thing to get at most companies.
A 0-confirmation transaction normally is just fine.

It's really not fine at all.

The competition is full confirmation transactions on a debit card or bank account in seconds with much lower or zero fees.
