1. I never really noticed that because I mainly use Sourcegraph's code-intelligence on open source projects and as a result search is something that I have to rarely rely on.

2. You can stylize any page using something like stylebot or a homebrew browser extension.

3. Although not something that I do often, I find the filename search on google (for OSS projects) quite accurate and then the chrome extension allows you to open that file on sourcegraph.com or inject code intelligence within the github page as well.

4. Github sort of supports regex like search, you can learn more @ https://help.github.com/articles/searching-code/
The claims of "falsely claimed a PhD on LinkedIn" and "falsely claimed to be a chess master on his resume" are not "unrelated". They are closely related examples of the same behavior. If he's a liar on his resume (and he is), it is much easier to believe that he's a liar on LinkedIn.

Spare me the condescension on data modeling. LinkedIn barely has a data model; it is a modestly structured version of a resume, with a bunch of free text fields. It is not a "very different case". People will often ask for "a resume or a LinkedIn link" in job applications because they serve the same purpose. LinkedIn will automatically render your LinkedIn profile in resume form. They are in practice the same.

And in either case, if you say "PhD, Systems Biology, Harvard" in the education section, reasonable people will believe you claim to have a PhD. That's how I read it. That's how many people read it. And if you did a user test, I'm sure that's how most people would read it. That anonymous Damore fanboys now claim they'd read it differently is not proof of anything about the wider world.

You can claim that it was a mistake on his part (and others have), or that his documented social ineptitude (as his fellow students talked about) mean that he just didn't understand the social implications of what he wrote. But then you would have to grapple with the other lie on his resume, which is why you are spinning so vigorously away from it.

I am not denying any "facts" about Damore's performance. I agree he worked at Google and didn't get fired for a while. I agree that he claims his performance was great. Those are facts. As I said at the beginning of this thread, I'd like to see that for myself. People who lie on resumes are not trustworthy sources for their job performance.

Well seeing as the criteria that they used to pick the OpenSSL project is:

What if the fix to the car reduced your MPG by 30% to address a safety issue? This seems somewhat analogous to the number being bandied about as the CPU performance decrease.

The deep mutual dependency between firms and governments in capitalism and the distorting effect that had on policy is a feature observed by Marx and other contemporary critics who coined the term “capitalism” for the then-dominant system in the developed West.

Whatever the fantasy system you have in mind that lacks this feature is, it's not capitalism, that name's already been taken for the system in which this is a central problem.

He published his resume to the world on LinkedIn. I suppose he could try to track every reader down individually, but that seems like quite a challenge. Which is why published errors usually are followed by published corrections with explanation and/or apology. Even media hacks do it, so presumably Damore could manage.

In the early days, detractors would said Bitcoin paper doesn't make sense. Then they admitted the paper makes sense, but said there is no value of the coins. Then they admitted the coins had value, but they said only criminals would use it. Then after many established legitimate businesses adopted it, then they said it is only usable by people with computer smarts but not for average folk. Then average folk started using it and they said it is not scalable. Then all these low transaction forks and innovations like the lightning network we're coming out, and then they say, "little shot at ever being a major global currency".

The bar has been constantly rasied, and the crypto currency community continues to pass it. The fact that this mainstream news article is making the high criticism that it won't be a global currency and not one of these earlier lower criticisms is evidence of success.

>Is there a significant difference between Bitcoin and Ethereum approaches?

The two have very different approaches. Bitcoin was designed to be a currency, with blockchain being the mechanism to facilitate transactions. Ethereum was built from the start as a platform to run applications for zero downtime, along with its own cryptocurrency and smart contracts. If you follow the HBO series Silicon Valley, Pied Piper's platform running thanks to the smart refrigerators is reminiscent of Ethereum.

>From what I can tell Ripple expects entities to run validation nodes as a service to the public

Ripple is an oddball, but I threw it in as an example. It was created by a company which mined all of the coins from day one and held onto a significant portion of them, yet claim it was built to connect different payment systems together. For example, here's a statement their lead cryptographer made.

“Payment systems today are where email was in the early ‘80s. Every provider built their own system for their customers and if people used different systems they couldn’t easily interact with each other. Ripple is designed to connect different payment systems together.”
Their basic "problem" is that existing products in the sector has long since reached saturation, so they are looking at anything that may entice a customer to replace their existing, fully working, product.

> On system reset, the vector table is fixed at address 0x00000000.

Also, I'm not an expert on the C standard, but in my understanding, it doesn't "break" it. That is:

* Address 0 and the null pointer are distinct

* A 0 literal treated as a pointer is guaranteed to be the null pointer

* The null pointer is not guaranteed to be represented by all zero bits

* If you get a pointer to address zero via pointer math or by other means than a 0 literal, you can still access address zero.
I’m using “they” to refer to the larger community. Go back a few years ago and look at hypotheticals about changing bitcoin to deal with scaling issues. The thought was that when changes were needed the community would vote for those changes. Simple. Until it wasn’t.

But now voting power is too consolidated for any real community change to occur. The block size needs to change. Lightning doesn’t solve the fundamental problem. It just creates a new group of people with power to confirm transactions. Decentralized… until it isn’t.

There was this idea early on that power would be distributed across a wide range of people and the future of BTC would be transparent and democratic. I don’t know that mining pools were really forseen, at least not in the way the exist today.

I guess my point of this whole thread was that we quickly found out when something is “decentralized” it just results in a relatively small group of people becoming the defacto authority through force (in this case, sheer computational power). It was thought that wouldn’t be possible. But here we are.

It gives you a menu of FM stations in your area (with some odd duplication and some confusion of icons) from which you can build a favorites list.

It also has a "Basic Tuner" mode so you can tune like a regular digital tuner. This is valuable if you want a station not in their menu (my own immediate need for this is for the low-power FM transmitters for TVs at the gym).

You can select "FM Only" mode to completely avoid streaming and use only the FM tuner (to save mobile data).

I have no affiliation with these people; I was completely unaware that the long-present but unusable FM chip was being liberated at all until 15 minutes ago. My last Android with usable FM was my old HTC from 7 years ago.

People need to learn from what happened in Haiti. They have no trees to protect the soil for farming and from hurricanes. They over fished their coastal waters to the point they are dead now.

Interesting... In my high school (third world country), buying software at US prices simply wasn’t an option for local incomes, while we were hungry to learn and use the software (especially compilers).

Even the teachers copied software for us onto floppies that we’d “borrow” like library books.

Everyone pirated. Interestingly though most switched to Linux early on too.

And most of the members of our warez distribution BBS/IRC channels went on to great careers in technology, some becoming leading lights of the local and SV VC scene ;)

With the PHP 7.1 and 7.2 performance upgrades, I think it is getting harder and harder to hate on PHP. Not to mention that while many of the quirks of the language still exist for legacy reasons, many of the newer updates provide modern methods for today's programmer. (And you don't have to do it the wrong way)

I had an older system running PHP 5.3 and after a day of refactoring, it was ready for 7.1. The CPU usage literally dropped by 50%. Pretty amazing!

Not to mention laravel is quite pleasant to use and has got to be one of the fastest routes to building a good saas app backend with any language.

I've got a new project coming up and I think I will be going with laravel and reactjs.
>Without question, atomic weapons summarily ended the bloodiest war in all of human history.

There are many questions about that, many people hold the opinion that the nuclear weapons did not in fact end the war.

Whether or not that is true, I do not pretend to have the expertise to say, however saying there is no question is flat out wrong and ignoring the debate.

Not as long as payments go through the current financial system. If you’re using a US credit card, with a US billing address, to transact with a company, then you are “US registered” regardless of where your packets are routed. Until it’s possible/mainstream to decouple identity from payment, your payment method will always be the weakest link.

The bottom 150-160 countries in terms of corruption are extraordinarily corrupt compared to the top few dozen that are the least corrupt. The gap between New Zealand or Denmark, two of the least corrupt nations, and Croatia or Hungary, is night and day.

There is a dramatic acceleration of corruption after you get outside of that general top 30-40 group. Your statement is an equivocation, when in actuality the level of corruption often varies dramatically from nation to nation. Saying every country has corruption is meaningless as such.

@raguuu You probably disagreed with his political views, speaking from personal experience.
It sounds like you're claiming that

P(Third Party controls government) * P(3rd party would institute NN) > P(Dems control government) * P(Dems would institute NN).

That's just.. So outrageously unlikely I'm taken aback. P(Third Party controls government) is so low we have never seen it in our lifetimes, and you are just assumping that P(3rd party would institute NN) is high to compensate with no evidence whatsoever.

We had Net Neutrality under Obama. Are you claiming that if Clinton won, she wouldn't continue Obama's policy? The only reason we do not have Net Neutrality right now is that Trump won. Based on prior observation, P(Dems institute NN) is significant, I would guess at least 50%.

To be honest, I think you are simply factually incorrect. The official platform of the Democratic party is that they support Net Neutrality, and it first existed as official policy under Obama. If Democrats regain control of the government, I would fully expect them to reinstitute it.
I think Y2K had more practical impact across the business world. There was genuine fear that it could cause an actual apocalypse with all major computerized systems failing, medical machines killing people, banks being affected and all money and debts disappearing overnight.

It wasn't that bad, because people took it seriously. But there were still tons of practical systems affected and billions of corporate dollars associated with fixing it.

So when you say "biggest mess up" you gotta define specific qualifiers. Because Meltdown/Specter is going to be solved by simply... buying a new CPU. (And retrofitting the old ones). So it consist of mostly a patch.

A BIG important patch, granted. But it's still just a patch. But some ATM's aren't going to start spewing money like they did on Y2K.
Maybe have a calculator on the website that lets you put in the start and end of your journey, tweak things like how far in advance you want to arrive at the airport with some set minimum (e.g. need to arrive at sfo at least 1 hours before), then can compare your offering vs the standard home-sfo-lax-end destination. it's the kind of info most people would have to piece together with Google maps, having it in the site would be pretty easy to do, and where there is a big time saving, becomes a pretty strong motivator to "sign up now"
