It's not $5 plus $5 shipping unless I can buy three for $20. Otherwise it's just $10 including shipping.

Since you can't buy more than one, "shipping" is just a way to get the price up. It's like those eBay sellers who sell a $10 item for $1 and charge $12 for shipping, per item.

I am happy that XMPP gets some love. Centralised messengers are a real problem now. People on whatsapp are only reachable on whatsapp, same for viber, messenger, skype, ... We are in a really stupid situation. XMPP works now, is decentralised, has secure E2E encryption, is not controlled by a single entity, and has good clients for android and desktop (iOS is unfortunately missing).

I am rooting for an XMPP comeback.

> Cast a vote and get a print out with a private key. Go home and check the blockchain to make sure your vote is recorded.

Apart from the problem that this enables vote buying or coercion, it also:

(a) is a good use for a public database, but putting that public database on the blockchain is just a useless complication of things; and

(b) only addresses part of the problem: yes, any voter's vote is counted; but is everything that's counted an actual person's unique vote? That is, this doesn't protect against ballot stuffing by multiple voting or by simply faking database entries.

Overall, not a terribly good approach, and even if it were, no need to "blockchain" it.
There's an argument to be made that that's a sign of an engineering organization that has its priorities straight and is serving the business well.

Of course it does, similar systems have been suggested for lunar transfers to earth (IIRC). Without atmosphere these systems are trivial to implement and use. (Comparatively)

> Heat shields exist, and so do g-force hardened electronics.

Heatshields are rather large and expensive. There is also a difference between heatshields for reentry and heatshields you'd need for leaving the atmosphere efficiently.

At the moment, heatshields are basically ramming through the air and compressing it in front of the aircraft, this is most efficient in reducing velocity and can reduce the temperature at the shield somewhat.

When you fire something through the atmosphere with the goal to get it into a suborbital trajectory you need a different solution; your aircraft becomes a spike/spear, generating friction with air instead of compression. Friction is harder to deal with if I recall correctly from various pages on the topic.

Everything is based on mainline Linux so that's a rather empty statement. Question is how far away is it, and what is the track record for getting changes upstream.
Those problems are not technical though. Centralized systems using banks are more efficient in theory. It's just databases talking to each other, there is no technical reason why transfers can't be near instantaneous and basically free. Cryptocurrencies might provide incentives for banks to lower their fees and polish their crusty legacy code, but I can't see them displacing banks for everyday use.

IncrediMail is an email program that allows the users to handle their different email accounts. It comes with options that allow the users to efficiently manage their

contacts and the same contact list can be used with their different email accounts. IncrediMail has tools for enhancing users’ creativity.

Restoring files either to the same system or to another PC is essentially the same process. If you are transferring your data to another system then it is recommended

that if possible both systems are at the same build level. You should also note that existing data and
settings will be replaced.

Best application for recovery of Incredimail data is an appropriate and judicious platform, IncrediMail Recovery Tool as this application can completely recover emails

from IMM and IMH files.ll of its emails are stored in .imh and .imm formats and all of your contacts are saved in .imb format.

Wouldn't you then write two sets of functions? set_high, set_low, enable_pullup, disable_pullup. Now internally set_high and enable_pullup might do the exact same thing, but externally they signal intent and prevent you from trying to set a pullup on an output for example.
I'm not sure I necessarily agree with this.

When I was 35 I was getting divorced, and for simplicity, I moved into a shared apartment with a bunch of students (as I had to pay for the apartment with my wife, I didn't want to pay rent for two full apartments at the same time). I was a professional software Java developer at the time.

I appreciate 35 isn't 55, and I appreciate Java software developer isn't successful lawyer, but I can still see it happening even if I was older and in an even more lucrative profession. I mean people do have strange times in their lives, and not everyone is rich just because they're successful (e.g. divorce, health issues, downturn in the job market, bad decisions, etc.)
Does it even have to be about the “average” person? What percentage of the population has ever been exposed to real autopilot systems? For all the rest, sci-fi autopilot is the only reference point. A person doesn’t have to be particularly ignorant not to be exposed to these things; I’d tentatively posit most people growing up in an urban center have never been behind the console of a plane or a boat.

Yes, and especially, I don't know if a psychopath would cower in their bed.

Psychopathy goes along with a diminished sensitivity to pain and a generalized dissociative state, and I'd expect after a high-stress event, this dissociation to be extremely pronounced possibly to the point of total detachment from their environment.

Psychopathy is a "fight" response to stress, coupled with a extreme impairment to self-imagine/empathy. Its not a choice, its a lifelong pathology that I struggle to see diminish after a mere fight.

In particular, I wonder if a psychopath would really have much concern for their body in this way. I think they would be more concerned to protect its integrity/image than afraid of damage.

Maybe the were pretending to cower because that's what they thought this chump wanted to see. The way he talks about this situation though -- he comes off strongly as a person self-justifying and duty bound to do something obviously wrong.
I wonder if blockchain technology could play a role in the development of a secure and reliable online voting system.
Do you mind expanding on what you mean? When I look at the instructions here, they seem pretty concise.

`export` -> exports the thing

`default` -> if you require from this module, this is the default

`class` -> class definition

`extends` -> speaks for itself

`Controller` class it's extending.

You could maybe rework it so you don't export it on the same line:

```

class Foo extends Controller {}

export default Foo

```

The parallel I see here to Java is the object orientation - which is a fair criticism. There are probably ways to execute on this using other mechanisms other than inheritance. But then, sub-classing to me still feels better than assigning the prototype via direct assignment.

"Contain async insanity so that the dark pony lord doesn't eat souls"

Just... What. I feel like when you need to reach for tools to "contain insanity", you might want to backup and ask someone who has written to a filesystem before... The linked blog about "preventing the release of Zalgo" and the linked https://blog.ometer.com/2011/07/24/callbacks-synchronous-and... seem completely erroneous. The entire point of callbacks is to _surrender_ control to a function - here is a piece of code to run when you are ready - now, sometime, or never, or maybe many times, as you see fit. Waiting until the next process tick seems so completely unnecessary... This strikes me heavily as "a solution in desperate search of a problem" - although I have that feeling with a _lot_ of NodeJS code I read...

The author of the blog linked on the dezalgo project seems to, at the end of the post, imply the purpose is for performance? By deferring work until a later date?

"The basic point here is that “async” is not some magic mustard you smear all over your API to make it fast. Asynchronous APIs do not go faster. They go slower. However, they prevent other parts of the program from having to wait for them, so overall program performance can be improved."

Other parts of the program _other than the work we've asked it to do_? What if we're only "correctly making" one directory? So we intentionally make our code slower... So that "other code" can run? He continues:

"This makes the API a bit trickier to use, because the caller has to know to detect the error state. If it’s very rare, then there’s a chance that they might get surprised in production the first time it fails. This is a communication problem, like most API design concerns, but if performance is critical, it may be worth the hit to avoid artificial deferrals in the common cases."

So it's slower -and- more complicated, and we're gonna hide it behind a meme. Gotcha.
No, I just mean that you misunderstood what the OP was calling "incorrect". They weren't saying that it's incorrect that a compile time error is triggered in the situation described.

THe RPi Zero is misleading. It has less performance than this.

The direct competitor is the RPi3 and costs $35 which is $15 less and it doesnt require a breakout board to access it's IO. The eMMC is the only interesting aspect about this board.

SD card manufacturers can get away with using the shittiest flash and controllers they can find because SD cards can be replaced. eMMC is not user serviceable and therefore actually needs to be... you know... reliable.

This board is clearly not for hobbyists. It's intended for hardware startups that will design their own custom breakout boards.

It depends where. In France you are completely stuck when someone dies not pay. It can take over a year to finally kick someone out.

I'm working at an online supermarket called Picnic, in the Netherlands, and we deliver with small electric trucks. It works well in cities and suburban areas.

Blockchain developer salaries – 2018 report
It isn't an unsolvable problem but I predict that in many organizations, containers will mean more instances of critical hot-fixes (to library components outside the kernel - e.g. openssl) not being applied across the board because the development teams manage the container image and once the product is in maintenance no one is going to be updating them. This is mitigated by a smaller attack surface but its still a concern.

Cockpit – Administer Linux servers via a web browser
China is a one-party system in which the country is run by a single cadre of 'politicians'. There is corruption everywhere and there are Draconian laws which are applied selectively and sometimes enforced and sometimes not (e.g. half of all food stands in cities are illegal, riding motorbikes is illegal in many cities, etc.). Internet and phone calls are constantly monitored and filtered based on certain words to the extent that if you use a certain word even in a different and completely innocuous context your phone call is interrupted or your internet connection stops working. There are hundreds of political prisoners and laws are applied selectively based on your standing within the party. There are political re-education camps and critiques of the government are frequently arrested under bogus and clearly invented pretexts, are often often put under house arrest, and are constantly harassed and surveilled by all kinds of authorities. Public protests are persecuted as uprisings against the state, using various deliberately vague and overly broad laws.

The idea that the differences between China and freer countries are merely a matter of the 'narrative' is patently ridiculous. It is also false, because according to the Chinese constitution, "...citizens of the People's Republic of China enjoy freedom of speech, of the press, of assembly, of association, of procession, and of demonstration." So yes, China officially has the same narrative, it just doesn't have any due process, has massive surveillance not even remotely comparable to Western countries, and suffers from massive corruption in the hands of a single 'party'.

In Common Lisp:

a list (lambda () (print :foo)) is not code:

CL-USER 10 > (let ((l '(lambda () (print :foo))))
(funcall l))

Error: Argument to apply/funcall is not a function: (LAMBDA NIL (PRINT :FOO)).

But the unquoted lambda form is code, since Common Lisp has a LAMBDA macro

CL-USER 13 > (let ((l (lambda () (print :foo))))
(funcall l))

:FOO
:FOO

The LAMBDA macro transforms it into a FUNCTION special form with an embedded lambda expression:

CL-USER 14 > (macroexpand-1 '(lambda () (print :foo)))
(FUNCTION (LAMBDA NIL (PRINT :FOO)))

Thus in Common Lisp we can evaluate:

a) the special form FUNCTION:

(FUNCTION (LAMBDA () (PRINT :FOO)))

b) the same, but using #' as a short version:

#'(LAMBDA () (PRINT :FOO))

c) or the macro LAMBDA, which expands into a)

(LAMBDA () (PRINT :FOO))
The thing to remember about data is, it only says exactly what it says. And what it says is this: sex of an individual somehow correlates with the measure of cognitive ability used in the study.

The hidden variable here is a dominating one: the sex of the individual and how they have been socialized to practice certain skills over others. This varies by where they spent their developmental years, how their parents brought them or denied them certain opportunities, how the skills they developed align with or diverge from the test they took, and other invisible influences.

* learning curve of new technology: you need a new set of tools, you can't just use free/ps/top/etc. (well, you can use them, but you don't get as much insight as you get by using the container tools directly); you have to learn yourself, you have to train colleagues and newcomers, etc.

* increased complexity if you have a simple setup; for example if your deployment now consists of copying just 1 file or 1 folder and starting up an app/service, then using containers will include additional moving parts in your setup

* if you already have legacy tech, migrating won't be straighforward, especially for stateful applications (think JSF, ASP.NET Forms, etc.)

* as jeremyjh pointed out below, unless you have a specific strategy for this, you will have duplicated dependencies in containers, which need to be checked for vulnerabilities; you can't just apt update && apt upgrade on the host system from just the security repositories and call it a day (more or less)

* an extra layer that comes with its own bugs
