Most importantly plugins in eclipse never really worked for me. They often broke during updates, the package servers were slow or unavailable, or I had to wait weeks for plugin updates to update to a newer version of Eclipse.

IntelliJ has almost all important plugins and languages built-in. Even some quite nice frameworks.
This is probably because Vue.js is as dominant in China as React.

Yes, cockpit uses hostnamed and timedated. Plus journalctl, which I noted. I'm perfectly aware of how dbus works, and if you think that hostnamed or timedated have 'idiosyncractic' APIs, I'd challenge you to look at the API for glib.

But it uses these because they are readily available over dbus. Not because cockpit has a hard dependency on systemd.

While that functionality wouldn't work, it would be really trivial to write your own using cockpit.spawn() to call `date`... or `hostname ...` instead of hostnamed or timedated. The truth is that hostnamed and timedated are simply better than the CLI tools.

However, I'm sure the Cockpit team would welcome a patch.

More to the point, there is absolutely nothing in Cockpit which is explicitly using systemd APIs outside of dbus, and this would not be hard to work around.

I know it's cool on HN to hate on systemd, but this is dumb. Cockpit already uses bare `hostname`: https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit/blob/dbd7f3a8487a...

It would be a 20 line patch to break the systemd "dependency" on hostnamed. This is not a project intrinsically linked to systemd.

Even your hardwired "example" of journalctl is literally calling a process, which could just as easily be "cat /var/log/messages". It's 'hardwired' because systemd is the standard these days, whether you like it or not. However, extending the promise to simply do that if journalctl fails is trivial.

Maybe your idea of 'hard' dependencies and mine are very different. To me, a 'dependency' on, say, Python, means that there are Python calls all over the place which a reliance on specific semantics. That means that stubbing it out for Ruby or Lua or whatever would be hard. It is not "we wrote our application with this in mind, but we could patch it into stubbable modules in 3 minutes".
Yep, I decided to submit under a more neutral tone because the "Sex and drugs" part felt too sensational, but the result got too opinionated. Will try better next time.

Just make sure that the MacPass implementation of that HTTPconnector isn't listening on 0.0.0.0 by default.

Some implementations do and it has been patched in the main repo but didn't make it out to all users. Communication from KeePass/MacPass to the browser is just over http as the name suggests so passwords are sent in plain text and can be sniffed over the network.

If it's confined to localhost then you're fine as it's as secure as not having a compromised device in the first place.

I'm imagining the Github infrastructure folks cringing at this. The second-order effects of people reusing the infrastructure for a different purpose than initially intended.

Like how they caved and provided github.io because people were using Raw (or some other feature of the repos) as a ad-hoc CDN anyhow.

In fact, I'm curious how much of their traffic is traditional git/repo view and how much is any of these "second-order" services.

Mueller's remit is to investigate any crimes related to the campaign and election. Trump/Russia collusion is just one of many including money laundering and obstruction of justice.

Manafort was campaign chairman and is alleged to have convinced Trump to change positions on Ukraine as a a result of outside funds. Hence investigating money laundering is directly relevant to Mueller's remit.
How is that offensive? Fit women are also flirted with more than unfit women by men of all levels of fitness. Being fit is a positive quality to look for in a mate, and it's one of the few that you can tell at first glance. Congrats on getting more fit though!
I don't want to defend all regulation is evil strawman, and I don't know if this particular regulation is good or bad but your argument looks very weak.

A proper value comparison would be 'cost of all audits caused by this regulation' vs 'benefits gained from mistakes found by it'. You also need to assess risk reduction, what kind of risks it protects from and set a value on that.
Then you could realistically say if it's net positive or not.

And when something is mandatory across industry it's easy to price in directly to consumers because nobody can compete on it, so this likely doesn't eat on a bottom line but increase price for consumers.

Again not trying to argue that this or all regulation is bad, just that your evaluation of what's working seems deeply flawed.
My dad made me sit at the table until I finished my milk and peas. After waiting two hours to spite him, I then had to drink warm milk and eat cold peas anyways. I learned pretty quickly that the manipulation didn't work on him.

I have no doubt that a lot of parents have that "my little angel" syndrome that keeps them from disciplining their children, but notice how that doesn't free them from the responsibility nor allow them to blame their kids.

I can appreciate that I was really fortunate to have parents that put in that sort of effort. My mom would also cut up vegetables like turnips for us after school that we would scarf down. They set me up for a healthy lifestyle as an adult that didn't take much effort on my part.

I know a lot of people didn't have those kinds of advantages, so they especially don't come naturally for them once faced with raising children and having to make those decisions themselves.
People who pay for the products of early-stage startups (or, say, back Kickstarters) have an emotional intuition that they've invested in the company, despite there being no legal truth to that fact.

As a growing company, you have to keep that in mind when modifying your business model: you can't betray the (entirely incorrect!) emotional intuitions of your customers, or they'll boycott you.
This may not be a very well-received comment due to the securities fraud he has been convicted for, but in Martin Shkreli's YouTube lessons on investing (Really aimed towards future day traders / full time investors, but good points are made) he says the sec.gov site is the best place to take in content and he showed after you get used to the ( ugly ) government site layout, you can actually get to the information you need quickly. But day traders and full time investors probably fit your category of economists.

As a practical matter, Dropbox is operating at a loss, yet has value as a company because of the expectation that it will hopefully someday turn a profit. IPOing allows Y Combinator, which specializes in early stage investment, to realize a return on their investment and invest in more companies without having to wait even longer.

:-( You're right.

What I said was wrong. It was also doomed to be sloppy at best, because I intended to compare trees as programmers know them (i.e., typically directed and rooted, which is more structure than mathematicians' 'trees' have) to DAGs, which have a precise mathematical definition.

But I hardly meant to introduce anyone to the concept of either DAGs or trees by that comment. If there's a chance of it seriously misleading anyone, I would be happy to see it moderated out of sight.

The point I intended to make, more carefully stated, is this:

DAGs are closely related to structures that programmers already deal with all the time, and so it strikes me as odd when programmers protest learning to work with DAGs.

I was a huge fan of Eclipse back in the day when I heavily used it for (mostly) Java development. However, for me it was death by a 1000 cuts. Workspaces getting into non-functional states that required wiping/rebuilding. Update sites constantly being moved to new URLs that required me manually making configuration changes just so the Eclipse update mechanism would work instead of spitting out cryptic error messages. Updates breaking the IDE to the point that I had to reinstall and start fresh and reconfigure everything from the ground up. Update checks causing every core on a Core i7-2600 to go to 100% cpu usage and remain that way for 30+ seconds.

When I switched to IntelliJ, I suffered from none of those problems and it did not take me long before I went and purchased a personal license.
> this first permit is comparable to an athlete stretching before a race. We have not yet begun.

Sounds to me like this first permit is more like an athlete shopping for running shoes. This is really preliminary.
Dropbox has better quality software, and I would use them if they had individual plans that just scaled linearly like google drive and amazon drive do.

Because they don't I use amazon drive, which is 2TB @ $10/month. I mostly use it for client side encrypted backups and use about 1.3TB currently.

Also I've noticed many apps if they do integrate with a drive provider, they integrate with dropbox almost all the time, and the others not so much.
They even gave out a ring that ran java iButton (I say we can blame java for the iSTUFF prefix Apple ran with just because):

The "new field of crystal robotics" bit comes directly from the original paper's abstract, and from an interview quote in the article with the head researcher. The article itself is a perfectly reasonable summary for non-physicists. I don't see what the problem is.
Must be nice to be Quintin Clark. Showed up in Sept of 2017 and was awarded $34MM worth of stock according to this S-1.

It looks like a healthy business. Congrats to dropbox.
This is from the SNAP S1 not the dropbox S1

I agree with you. I think it's also worth reviewing regulations periodically to see if they still make sense.

For example, a few years ago when Uber moved into Sarasota, the taxi companies complained. The city did something remarkable - they eliminated the regulations that Uber wasn't complying with. AFAIK, there really haven't been any negative consequences.

That is true, but the price structures are different. Stock prices, and other equities, are already priced with everyone knowing that you have permanent ownership. Software isn't priced that way. If it were then I would expect prices to be much higher.
The line "This finding of the crystal locomotion can lead to a field of crystal robotics" is in the original paper's abstract.
I know that Facebook moved to Dropbox from Box for internal use.
So you're saying it's not the tool or packaging format. It's the curation of the repositories that npm/apt/pacman users tend to consume.
The thing is that you can't just enact regulations that take place immediately. You can't just have the government stop doing its job because they are going to be leaving soon and if the next president wants to stop the regulations they can

The problem here is that the competitors are companies like Google and Microsoft. If it came down to a bidding war, they could outbid Dropbox just by pulling loose change out of their couch cushions.

Do you have an example of one? I don't think anything from the pre-CAP time can call itself distributed database, i.e. anything from the 1980s or 1990s or even early 2000s. They usually made an assumption that the network is fast and reliable, essentially ignoring all of the problems post-CAP distributed databases address.

Hey! Something on HN I can finally comment on.

I've been time blocking for two years. It's the only strategy that works in my open office.

I've invested in a nice pair of headphones (Bose QC35s), in order to help convey the message to my coworkers that I am unavailable, as well as set an outlook appointment on a weekly basis for what hours I'll be blocking out.

You probably won't be good at it, at first. In the beginning for me, I still checked email, I still glanced at my phone...it was really only to stop interacting with my coworkers to focus on tasks.

However, over time, I got better at finding music that kept me focused. Placing my phone on DnD, and placing it in my bag, and closing outlook.

Colleagues began to understand what my 'time blocks' meant. As I did it more often it became effective.

Now people check my calendar for my daily time block to see when to come bother me, and I am able to be hyper focused on tasks for 2 hours a day.

My advice to anyone wanting to attempt this, is to be diligent and persistent. Have a list of polite ways to tell people that you are unavailable for this time, and learn how to deflect questions to others who may have the answer. I would definitely recommend good, noise cancelling headphones. Avoid listening to music you like, and know the lyrics to. Find a random station that plays lyricless, low-tempo music. Your brain will eventually begin to associate that music with focus.
I took the same thing away. Basically taking the preconceived notion that capitalism is bad and using poetic writing to tie every social ill back to it.

I hope that people don't look to this article as a serious review of history.

In most of those cases the guys higher up the food chain have appreciating assets such as land, consumer brand value, mining rights, developed oil fields and mines, etc. The guys lower down the food chain make depreciating assets and have to get up every morning and make new stuff to sell every day or they go out of business.
I’m a fan of Dropbox, it’s an excellent product. It’s the only file sync product I’ve used in anger that I actually trust — I’ve had glitches of one sort or another with iCloud, Google Drive, OneDrive... never with Dropbox. It just works. Apple should have bought them, Jobs got it wrong ;-)

Dropbox Paper is also a delight to use, from a personal perspective. I’ve never used it on a team. I would be interested to hear whether teams of 50+ have successfully used it — it just doesn’t feel ready for the enterprise in the way that Google Drive does/is.

I’ve not read this S-1 (perhaps it clarifies this) but Dropbox seems a little confused about positioning B2C vs B2B. Does it have a packaging problem? Can it have it both ways? It feels like it’s trying to, but when I was a paying Pro user, I couldn’t get away from the upsell on the site for me to move to the business package. Annoying.

Good luck to them though — they have killer design, a killer viral product and a loyal user base.
Not really. The abstract of the study specifically lists improved memory as one of the effects the mice experienced. There are obviously lots of caveats you could list (e.g. it's only shown to help mice with chronic stress, not people or even mice in general), but it doesn't seem incongruous the way you're describing.
Exactly. And I worked at Apple and it's not like we were given special phones with enhanced security. It's just a standard VPN to log on to internal sites.

And of course the problem with keychains like this is that surely amongst one of your previous accounts is the password you used for your VPN and/or work email.
Cool! You too can pretend that you built an early microcomputer, turned it into a successful product, built a huge company, and became famous and wealthy beyond your wildest imagination. But first you have to figure out how to get past the advertising page on the IEEE website.

Quite the contrary. The millionaire knows he can take any idea he wants from a young upstart if it's not patented. He can hire more people, spend more money marketing his clone, get the big PR firm working for him, and relegate the true innovator to a historical footnote (at best).

If there's a patent, the force of law can be leveraged by the upstart to protect himself from such incursions, at least theoretically, and it requires expensive, tedious effort for the millionaire to circumvent the patent and/or defend himself against claims that he has infringed. Even if most inventors aren't going to pursue this course, the fact that the possibility exists is a deterrent.

Patents are not necessarily done well, but like many systems that have been co-opted by large corporate interests, they exist precisely to prevent such exploitation.

Software people must understand that software is not very hard or expensive to replicate. You don't get acquired because your software is good. You get acquired because you have a brand, an audience, a trademark, or a patent. There has to be some asset that the prospective acquirer cannot easily recreate by throwing 3-5 coders into a dark closet for a year or two (this costs around $1M / yr, much cheaper than any newsworthy acquisition).

So yeah, millionaires are likely to be very irritated that there's a patent that may force them to compensate the original innovator, or worse, buy their company entirely.
I've found the exact opposite at every job I've had. Typically pre-build solutions do WAY more than you need from them, and you can make wrappers for any very rare edge cases they don't solve which Ive found to be few and far between. Dependency managers go a long way toward making the patchwork nature of diverse libraries..manageable.

Also, I've found solutions custom rolled under pressure have more bugs and issues and theres never enough time to correctly debug, test, and QA before you're on to the next project.

However, CSS and HTML widgets may not lend themselves to libraries as easily as imperative programming languages.

You also, may just be solving more complex problems that require much more specialized libraries!

Just glad you found a solution that works!

Precision / rounding requirements is often the reason for this.

E.g. last time I implemented VAT rounding on a billing system (no I'm not suggesting I'd use trig functions for that; it's just an example of why precision matters) our financial controller was hovering over me with a copy of the HMRC rules for VAT rounding, and while we certainly could do it with floats or binary fixed point if we took some care, doing it with decimal fixed points made it a lot easier to demonstrate to our financial controller that I wasn't doing anything that'd make him liable for tax evasion.

Different representations works best for different things, but you better understand the tradeoffs.

Recently switched from Eclipse to IntelliJ. I've tried a few times in the past but I think I've reached the point of no return.

More keyboard shortcuts! = better. In eclipse I probably used 10...still hunting for the equivalent. Then there's the fact that some shortcuts require two hands, or a large hand. If you're focused on debugging and you need to step out... Shift F8?

Also the amount of times IntelliJ caches old files and screws up my testing is as much as eclipse... Which is probably my my biggest time waster. At least Intellij has the invalidate cache and restart... Which mostly works, till it doesn't, then I need to reimport.

What if I don’t trust the election authority? Having a public ledger as each vote is recorded is really powerful (or a smart contract for all votes to be countable whenever polls close).

It would also reduce the ability to pad with votes after the fact. Would help for analysis of any abnormalities (eg, five times population voting, stuff like that).

I think it becomes more useful the less trustworthy the government (eg, Russia).
95% of people wouldn't be interested in crypto if it didn't make them money. You're asking people to give up the money to improve the system for what? So they can't make as money?
