Yes, either that, or it may not have even occurred to them to think of it that way.
Bitbucket provides Git hosting similar to GitHub. They also support Mercurial.
You can profit from it for up to 70 years after your death. The world will be ready by then.
Conclude what you will. Anyone who has even a modicum of familiarity with them will know that this is correct.
They also need one for "movies where no dogs are killed". There's a lot more movies that do that than you might expect.

I know several people that get really angry when they are subjected to a movie with this in it.
Web APIs are a mechanism and therefore a medium for many higher-level implementations. There is nothing that inherently makes it so web APIs blur this distinction of free or paid content. There is a point at which you are asked to enter payment information. You can hide this pay wall regardless of web API or a series of web pages. It’s based on how you order content and data.

As for rate-limiting usage of a provider’s services, that’s what the terms are for. They’re providing the infrastructure and direcly covering the costs. It is an agreement between you and them to abide by their rules for what fair access is. If you disagree, no one is forcing you to pay and/or use that service. You may use another service or even start your own if you feel you can provide a better service. What you can’t do, however, is expect that these services provide some minimum threshold of computation power, especially at their ditect cost. Not unless it’s in the agreement you signed with them.
I think for a bug this big it is pretty understandable. So far, it seems clear the actions of all involved were in a good spirit of responsible disclosure.
It would be nice to know which older CPUs are affected. Do I have to worry about my Fam 10h processors getting bricked, or just my K-7 and K-8 systems?
Well, just give em a personal namespace with 4-8000millicpu
One thing I would be curious about is how members of the same race treat each other. Do black people favour black people the same way white people favour white people?
Primarily, I use it for just hosting paid content in a protected way. They do have awesome lead tracking, analytics, email captures and things but your bandwidth can cost a lot if you do that too much. It doesn't quite work out financially with a low-cost screencast business like mine. Probably better for marketing teams with a budget and higher cost products.
No, no. That is the recovered text.

Originally, the text had one non-ASCII character, an upside-down exclamation point. A series of unfortunate (but typical) things happened to that character, turning it into 9 characters of nonsense, the 9th of which is also an upside-down exclamation point.

It looks like ftfy is just removing the first 8 characters, but it's reversing a sequence of very specific things that happened to the text (which just happens to be equivalent to removing the first 8 characters).
The problem with that is I have to care how `file` works.

Here's how to read a whole file then loop over the lines:

file, err := ioutil.ReadFile("data.txt")
// some error handling
for _, line := range strings.Split(file, "\n") {
fmt.Println(line)
}

Here's how to stream a file one line at a time:

file, err := os.Open("data.txt")
// some error handling
defer file.Close()
scanner := bufio.NewScanner(file)
for scanner.Scan() {
fmt.Println(scanner.Text())
}
if err := scanner.Err(); err != nil {
// more error handling
}

Here's how I, at least, would like it to work:

fileContents := file.Read("data.txt")
for _, line := range fileContents {
fmt.Println(line)
}
if fileContents.Err() {
// some error handling
}

fileContents := file.ReadStreaming("data.txt")
for _, line := range fileContents {
fmt.Println(line)
}
if fileContents.Err() {
// some error handling
}

The critical point is that I don't want to care whether `file` is a byte slice or a byte buffer, and Go doesn't let me not care. I want to be able to write code that deals with "enumerable data of some sort", once, and then works no matter how the caller decides to provide that data.

Go (intentionally) makes it exceedingly difficult to obscure how a piece of code works from the rest of the codebase, and I personally think that's a fatally poor design decision. In my experience, it makes it difficult to decouple modules since code often has to be at least somewhat aware of quite a few implementation details of a library in order to use it correctly. It makes it really difficult to build higher level abstractions that don't leak. I have a much harder time in Go getting away from thinking in `int`s and `floats` and staying terms of the domain objects that I actually do care about.

"How" a piece of code functions is at best the third, and probably only the fourth most important question (behind "why", "what", and probably "when" if you use any concurrency at all), but Go forces it to be front and center at all times.

> There's no incentive to make a movie if it will never make any money.

> Without copyright, anyone can purchase it once and give it away for free or sell each copy for $0.01 and undercut all competition.

That's not a problem if the creators were paid to make the movie.

The parent mentioned several mechanisms to do this. It's not hard: after all, that's how basically all industries have worked since forever.

Anecdotally: half of the jobs I've had were producing private, in-house software; I got a regular wage for doing this, since the companies found such software useful. No need for copyright. The other half were paying me to produce FOSS which, once it was written, we wanted people to copy and spread for free, since that would gain us more attention (and potential customers for our related services). Again, no need for copyright (although some were strong copyleft, with network-use clauses)
> it indicates that the person you're seeking is sought after to fill a procreative role.

Indeed, if you've been following the last billion years or so, a procreative role is a common reason why males and females seek each other out. I admit I don't understand why openly seeking to reproduce is to be frowned on.

(And a larger point is that people on the spectrum don't take very well to social conventions that are based on tide and fashion instead of reason and logic and clear communication. I decided long ago I'd rather be a lonely tiger than a really terrible pack wolf.)
I'm curious where we draw the line on these kinds of things. SpaceX doesn't manufacture every single component, but if the launch had failed because a faulty screw, I don't think we'd be blaming Precision Attachments Corp., but it seems fair to blame NG here.
Thought? This looks good @mr_spothawk tks.
I'm a supporter of the Economist, but I'm disappointed by this headline which while truthful, buries the lede:

> The decrease in total deportations is largely explained by a 17% drop in the number of immigrants arrested and removed at the border over the past fiscal year. […] While border removals have dipped, deportations of immigrants arrested in the interior of the country have increased by a quarter over the past fiscal year, due to Mr Trump’s expansion of who is considered eligible for removal.
Thanks for the kind words! I appreciate the support!

I definitely am considering offering courses that either package up a series or a topic. That seems to be a good way of solving that balance between the different types of customers I see.
Rear curtain sync can also be useful for some shots for instance if you want your flash exposure to be "on top" of your ambient light exposure.

A Fujifilm X100F can make use of it's supplementary electronic shutter (in place of its leaf shutter) to simulate rear curtain sync.
That's a nice hypothesis. We are now almost a decade into cryptocurrency. Where is the evidence that this hypothesis is true?

Don't get me wrong. I want to believe. I want a decentralized trust-free ubiquitous computing future. I want an alternative to conventional VC to fund startups. I want an alternative to adware/surveillanceware to fund products and services.

That's why I am saying "put up or shut up" and calling BS on this mania. It's sucking all the air out of the room and if this really is a totally vapid value-free bubble its collapse is going to be a disaster.
Like I said, there is a correlation, but I definitely would not argue that it is "very highly correlated". I found one paper by Frey [1] that discusses a significant correlation, but you will see that it is definitely not the "very highly" that you claim. I only gave a quick glance of the article, but I'm not even sold on its results because their methods suggest they might be over fitting the data (them just trying different fit methods to yield better results feels sketchy. Maybe they back it up better than I saw over the quick glance).

That all being said, correlation itself is not a de facto proof nor does it mean it is a good metric. There is a 99.8% correlation (which I'd call "very highly correlated") between US spending on science/space/technology and deaths by strangulation/hanging/suffocation[2]. I think we can all see that it would be laughable to use one as a predictor of the other.

Yeah, this example is ludicrous and obvious, but the difficult part is when you expect things to be dependent (which is what we are seeking for a good metric, not correlation), but aren't. It is easy to find data to match the results you are looking for, but that doesn't mean they are good results.

>In British civil law, the driver is always culpable in an accident involving a minor, even if sober and below the speed limit, which I was.

This seems like a weird construct, particularly given that minors do such stupid things. Two of them, together, literally ran into traffic, and the default is "blame traffic"?

Well, I'm in a charitable mood today so I decided to run a fundraiser on a whim using nothing but my phone.
When you spend a certain amount of time engaging in .... non-human.... environments - that is, what is conventionally called "nature" (which is a misnomer, as we all exist in nature), your perceptions of the human life start to shift and mutate. Things like time become a little less exact. The romantic view of wildlife evaporates. The difference is stark between someone who has spent that amount of time and someone who is a dilettante or a tenderfoot.

It's important to be careful in our thinking about it. Someone who just likes being out of buildings or driving an ATV - neither ipso facto wrong - is different in kind than Fuller, Muir, or the other individuals who know their land.
I agree that blockchain is overhyped right now, but I don't understand the common sentiment on HN that "you don't need a blockchain, just an append-only decentralized database with Merkel root logs", as if that's something easy to build. What is this hypothetical non-blockchain, where are you going to get it, and why not just use a blockchain if that's what you need?
No, anyone that is part of your tribe will echo your sentiments but if you ever actually listen to Haidt speak it's clear in 5 minutes that everything you said is a lie.

The fact that London's crime rates are not significantly lower than comparable cities makes me doubt this.

Even so, the question is larger than that - a) how well does it work (i.e. would the money be better spent on traditional policing) and b) is it worth what we are giving up (the ability to go about your business without being monitored, tracked, etc.)?

It seems like the secrecy surrounding the payload and payload adapter can't help but increase the odds of failure through restricted information flow between the payload designers and rocket engineers.

I stopped after reading this:

> “Historically the only way to make money from a protocol was to create software that implemented it and then try to sell this software (or more recently to host it)… With [cryptographic] tokens, however, the creators of a protocol can ‘monetize’ it directly and will in fact benefit more as others build businesses on top of that protocol.”

And what was wrong with developers finding a market, developing a software and then monetizing it? I have tons of ideas each day, some of them blockchain related too but it seems unethical to use other people's money to test my hypothesis.

In my case, this sentiment accompanies an implementation in the form of an easily-deployable open source microservice.

That's the tx/s limit on Bitcoin today? I can do hundreds of writes per seconds to Chronicle on a modest VM without sweat. This is possible because it's centralized, albeit supports mirroring (i.e. replication) and cross-signing.

Hmm, wasn't there that Microsoft Windows(?) bug that they derestricted before the patch was out? Memory escapes me at the moment. I thought it somewhat cemented/promoted their adherence to 90 days regardless of patch availability.
Another great approach to generating notional data is using the Haskell QuickCheck library and specifically the Arbitrary type class. Super simple and extremely flexible/composable.

I'm almost certain it's because of SLRs and through the lens viewing. Leaf-shutter SLRs were more expensive to make and were more complicated. To get an idea how, read about halfway down the page here: https://simonhawketts.co.uk/2016/11/05/kodak-retina-reflex-i...

Basically, focal plane shutter didn't get in the way of the viewer's light path since they were behind the mirror. They were cheaper to make, more reliable, and operated more consistently at the rated speeds. They were almost certainly more durable. Tungsten focal plane shutters can be rated for a 100,000 activations.
That's the spec but this is also the spec: https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3987.txt

It's true that protocols such as HTTP only use ASCII URIs on the wire. If you are implementing an HTTP client yourself, you will need to implement percent-encoding.

Which is different from saying "well, I know URLs should be ASCII on the wire, so I can safely delete all the non-ASCII characters from a URL." That's not true.
I'm confused what a "sample" group means in this context.

Take people who have one and only one sibling:

For the studied population (people who chose to take the SSC survey) the % of people who were the older sibling was some number.

The "sample" to compare that to is...what? The human population as a whole? Then we don't need a sample group, we know it has to be 50%.

So if the number he got in his study is much different from 50% that says something about the population in the study being different.
Something is off if you think he’s an asshole and his users in India don’t.

The normal anti-helicopter line is that a certain degree of early childhood risk, which naturally involves some degree of minor harm and rare things like broken bones, results in children better able to manage routine hazards and less harm over the long run.

Some age over 12 is well into the age where anti-helicoptering advocated would be likely to expect the harms of early helicoptering to have manifested, so the description in GP does not, to me, seem at all inconsistent with the common anti-helicoptering argument.
Note that autism lasts throughout one’s life. “These kids” with autism become adults with autism. Many adults with autism were undiagnosed as children and lived incredibly difficult lives as a result.
I just upgraded Docker for Mac and there's nothing about Kubernetes in the UI.

From the thread, LeCun mentions:

"Look at papers by Jeff Siskind and Barak Barak A. Pearlmutter particularly their work on VLAD, Stalingrad and VLD."
I think the confusion stems from permissioned vs permissionless blockchain, and the comment you replied assumed you were talking about one instead of the other. I find the plain term "blockchain" rather vague in that regard.

The exploit is based on reading values that you shouldn't be allowed to access in speculative execution and then using the returned values to create persistent changes in the cache(they persist even after the CPU detects your illegal access). Those persistent changes are then read via a side channel attack.

So you read any address you want speculatively and then use the result to prime the cache in such a way that you can determine what the value you read speculatively was. This works because modern operating systems map kernel space addresses into normal processes and to make syscalls faster.

I'd recommend reading the paper[0], it's fascinating stuff.

I really love the work that Tesla is doing in this area, and wish them all the luck in the world, but if the estimates in the article are even close ($57K for a Tesla roof, $41K for a tile roof with a small solar panel, $22K for a conventional asphalt roof) it's hard for me to see this being cost effective.

Terry has created an interesting project DESPITE his illness, not BECAUSE of it. It's very likely templeOS could be even greater without it. I've experienced personal projects being helped and hindered by mental issues and obsessions.

Mental illness often causes struggles in other parts of life. How much more effort could an artist (or engineer, anyone can build and create), devote to their work if they didn't have those struggles in other life scenarios?
Nice. Reviewing the code, it is as the PDF said where they are just constantly incrementing a val in the shared buffer to get a fairly precise timer. But it seems to be using the timing to determine across 256 indices (99 tries to check) to check cache hits. So just removing this timer is not enough, it just increases the surface area of bytes you have to read and sift through to see if you have other mem? Anyone have a writeup on this?

> everything in the manifesto are offered to support are that specific policy changes are justified.

No. The main reason he gives for policy changes is that the policy isn't working. Numbers haven't budged, despite measures getting ever more extreme and likely illegal. He then suggests that maybe, just maybe, the policy is based on a false assumption. And then delivers some evidence that this could be true. And then presents some ideas of what policies might have a better chance of working.

> empathy is a core publicly-stated internal value of Google which Damore explicitly called for de-emphasizing

Where? I've searched a bunch of places and can't find this, for example:

https://www.google.com/about/philosophy.html

I also googled "google values" and none of the posts so far have had "empathy" in them, though it could be that I haven't searched enough. Anyway, empathy is not a value. Empathy is an emotional capacity. His criticism of empathy is, as far as I can tell, based on the thesis of Paul Bloom's recent book Against Empathy: The Case for Rational Compassion. [1][2][3].

"Brilliantly argued, urgent and humane, AGAINST EMPATHY shows us that, when it comes to both major policy decisions and the choices we make in our everyday lives, limiting our impulse toward empathy is often the most compassionate choice we can make."
