There is no point on reimplementing GDB yet, you need first a legacy debugger with proper Rust support until the new one can debug itself.
I didn't say it was perfect. I doubt that whatever "organic" solution we're hoping the crypto community will self-enforce will be either.

With 'Reachability' enabled (Settings -> General -> Accessibility), you can partially get around this. Activate Reachability (swipe down on home bar), then swipe down on the (now-easier-to-reach) battery/signal area to access the control center. It should be noted this trick does not work from the lock screen.

Edit: this still works even if the battery/signal icon isn't there, you just have to guess approximately where the new location for the 'top right' of the screen is, and swipe down there to get the control center.

Edit2: messed around a little more and I guess you can actually access notifications using this method, it doesn't feel very consistent for me though.

I (and I'd assume many others) received this email from Mixpanel this morning at 7AM. I posted it to pastebin because the length prevented me from posting direct to HN. Their JS client wasn't updated until about 45 minutes ago, 5 hours after they issued the warning and told users to update.

I also couldn't put my finger on any specific difference, but it really does feel like the halls have a magic to them.

Mileages vary, but I haven't found dilution to be a big problem. Dilution only gets large when companies go through near-death experiences, and those are often followed by real death.

Follow-on investments are economically just like making later-stage investments. The average return can be good, but you can also lose all your money and you need much more capital to participate.
I'm constantly dropping mine. no damage so far. Not even much cosmetic damage...

How $800k Evaporated from 4chan's PoWH Coin Ponzi Scheme Overnight
Built For Me Inc. | Seattle, New York, San Francisco, Remote (US-only) | Senior Software Engineer | Full Time | $150k-$225k
Who we are: We are a small company loathe to use the word “startup”. The phrase that most aptly describes us is “boutique consulting firm” as we are currently working on select software consulting projects and have a long term vision to build a stand-alone product in about a year. The future product will focus on enabling business workflows and growing workplace productivity. We are being smart in our approach balancing software consulting with our own product. We balance both to pay ourselves well and support our vision for the future.

Who you are: You are a self-starter who can work with little supervision. You are meticulous about details and sufficiently passionate to get things done, yet know when to pivot to a more experimental move-fast mode. You should be a great teammate who looks to make your colleagues more productive because you know they are doing the same for you. You love the state-of-the-art and yet understand the danger of being there and can articulate the reasons why.

Technologies:

NodeJS / JavaScript

Babel / ES6

RDMS: MySQL / Postgres

Amazon Web Services: EC2, Lambda, CloudFront, S3

GitHub

Apache Aurora / Mesos

Terraform

Docker

We’re open to new technologies too, in the right situation.

SwiftDemand | Blockchain Developer | San Francisco, CA| | ONSITE | https://www.swiftdemand.com/

SwiftDemand combines the concept of Universal Basic Income with the blockchain. It's SwiftDemand's mission to both create a platform where everyone in the world receives a small amount of income on a daily basis and build a currency that is used for day to day transactions in the same way you would interact with Amazon or Apple Pay.

In the month of January we have continued to grow very quickly from less than 30,000 users to over 85,000. So far we have distributed 165 million Swifts and we have a marketplace with over 600 submitted products. At this time SwiftDemand is not funded, however we are looking to raise money in a presale and already have committed interest from over 900 people. The presale process likely to be completed within the next 2 months.

There are two potential options:
1. We can begin talking now, and once SwiftDemand has concrete funding bring you on immediately following that.
2. Start before the presale has completed and be given a larger stake in both the currency and the company.

Whitepaper: https://github.com/swiftdemand/swiftprotocol

Other roles SwiftDemand will be hiring: Full Stack Engineer, Customer Support

I don't personally think it will be that cyclic. There is so much more invested this time around, so many more people standing to lose so much more money, such a brighter light on the cryptocurrency world now. A devastating loss (e.g. Bitfinex shuts down and freezes all transfers, Tether worthless, that type of thing) to the BTC economy would be critical to the entire future of cryptocurrency as we know it, IMO. I don't think Bitcoin has 9 lives.
Indeed many of the victims and their relatives would say that these criminals should be kept locked up, for the protection of others and the betterment of the world

Which is why they aren't the ones who decide sentencing.
I'm not a very experienced frontend developer, but I'm full-stacking my side (web) project now.

Since I'm new to frontend, I thought I'd start with the latest tech, so I investigated angular, react, vue. But I eventually went back to jquery.

One reason was that I don't know much about design. I purchased themes based on Bootstrap, which uses jquery. And I remember react doesn't work well with jquery, there seemed to be function/variable naming conflicts if you include both. I know there are tutorials on how to make both work together, but I have never spent time on trying it out.

Another problem with newer libraries is lacking ui components. You can find tons of full featured bootstrap based admin templates, but it seems to me that I have to build lots of things from ground up if I want to use one of the newer libraries.

There is one time I did see a problem with jquery though. I wanted to build a real-time dashboard with a fast changing progress bar. The progress bar in my template was made by a decorated <div> tag. I noticed that my cpu usage quickly reached 100% when I updated the progress bar rapidly. I guess this is a problem of not being a virtual-dom library.

Right now I'm still using jquery + bootstrap. For my own javascript code, I try to apply the concept of virtual dom without using any library. I saw good articles on how to DIY virtual dom, https://medium.com/@deathmood/how-to-write-your-own-virtual-...

it doesn't seem to be that difficult.

Oh, one more thing is that jquery + bootstrap templates seem to be very large in size. I ran my bootstrap site through google's pagespeed https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/

the result was terrible. I don't know how I can strip it down.

Stan (mc-stan.org, Columbia University) | New York City | Full-time, ONSITE | $80-$100k

Stan (http://mc-stan.org) is an open source probabilistic programming language and Bayesian inference toolkit that data scientists and applied statisticians across the world and many fields use to specify statistical models and fit them to data. Stan emerged from the research group under Andrew Gelman at Columbia, which is focused on state-of-the-art in Bayesian inference methodology and consulted on a variety of statistical problems in the social, biological, and physical sciences, engineering, sports, and business. Since its initial release, we’ve welcomed collaborators and contributors across the globe and have about 30 active contributors at the time of writing.

We’re looking for a tools and infrastructure developer who is interested in science and open source, is a self-starter and intrinsically motivated to help out, wants a flexible lifestyle, and would like to learn Bayesian stats and data analysis. Ideally you’d come in knowing a decent amount about either systems administration or programming (or both) and we would teach you about statistics. We’re looking for help with the following problems initially:
* Streamlining installation for our R and Python interfaces for scientists on Windows and Mac, perhaps creating installers for each platform
* Maintaining and improving our continuous integration infrastructure (currently Jenkins, Travis, AWS)
* Bringing the PyStan interface up to feature parity with RStan and improving both of them (Python)
* Higher order autodiff test framework and infrastructure (C++)

We expect that you will need to spend a significant portion of your time on at least some of these problems at first. Beyond that, there is much work to be done on Stan as an ecosystem. For example, we could also use help with the following key underserved areas of the project:
* Profiling and performance benchmarks and improvements
* Various refactorings, mostly in C++
* Pedagogical materials
* GPU and distributed computation support

There are also many other ways to improve Stan that could use helping hands:
* Stan 3.0 language and/or compiler rewrite
* CloudStan
* Graphical modeling language transpiler
* New algorithm research implementations
* Anything from the list here: https://github.com/stan-dev/stan/wiki/Longer-Term-To-Do-List

Isn't that just the definition of Accredited Investor?
All GUIs are "reactive", because all UIs (mechanical, analog, digital, whatever...) are abstracted state machines. And state machines are defined by the following formulate: state0 + event = effect + state1. You can't design a GUI without having a state and reacting to events.

One could easily say that Qt was pleasurable because it was a well designed object-oriented and inheritance based toolkit. I have my reasons to believe this is objectively better within the context of UI design, and that pure functional programming in GUI design will never break out of it's magnificently tiny niche, but I'm not gonna go into that here. I'd rather just point out that some shared theoretical idea behind both Qt and Haskell UI design doesn't in any way imply that Qt's success could be Haskell's as well. Only Haskell programmers, working in Haskell code, could prove that idea. And if it really is that great, then surely they could do it.

>Blockchain is great as a secondhand market for things like art as it allows the buyer and seller to both know that they have the original and it allows for a digital art

Does it?

Someone with a blockchain registered Rembrandt has a forged copy produced and passes on the forged copy to you along with the registration, then years later sells the original in another deal through another entity and has the original verified forensically.

This doesn't do shit.

> And Chile is always a special case, the combination of natural resources, small population and good public systems does wonder for the country. Despite the extreme differences, I tend to compare Chile to the Nordic countries more than with LatAm.

You are flat out wrong with this comparison. Chile has one of the lowest tax burdens in the world. It can be accurately compared to either Hong Kong or Singapore.

Average tax burden by country:

Scandinavian countries have 4x higher taxes than Chile. They are polar opposites.

Thank you. I've been looking for this.

Have you also considered the Pillar Project's approach? They too struggled for funding, but I rather like the connection among blockchain technology, ICO funding, and personal data tools. I think the inversion of control that these efforts are seeking is what society needs in order to have a more healthy relationship with companies (and governments).

LOL I would obviously prefer reading long form text on a book, but do you really prefer audio to digital text? Story telling is one thing, but for most of what I'm reading I think a low-bandwidth, search-free environment (audio) is a bad match.
