There are currently 3 domains available. If this takes off I could do something like mailinator (offer the user a small selection, but never reveal the full list at once).

You can also register your own domain and point it at my server and your canary will work just fine on that domain.

If you're playing at a high enough level that you've specifically blackholed URL Canary traffic by IP address, then you're a worthy adversary. And additionally, that is a splendid problem for my project to have.

On the enterprise tier you even get your own server with its own IP address, so there should be nothing linking it to URL Canary at all. (Although the enterprise tier is extremely expensive, and if anyone buys it I will probably panic).
How will Facebook avoid lower growth? Or are you meaning financials rather than users? They just had a quarter that had some concerning metrics (usage among young people for example) and are surely up against world population limits at some point.
Windows 8 Start UI was designed to take advantage of this. Theoretically it was great: when you open start menu the mouse pointer is in the bottom left corner, tiles close to you are wide and tall, tiles far from the pointer are smaller, wider at the bottom, narrower at the top. Hot corners were supposed to be easily accessible (infinite distance). Yet is was a failure, because uses were not familiar with it, it broke their habits.

What will the consequences of this person’s killing be? Will someone lose out on a promotion, or miss their performance bonus?

We need to discuss how the developers self-driving cars will be held accountable for the crimes they commit. There is no reason the person who programs or the person who makes money from a self-driving car should be held less accountable for a crime that if committed directly by a person would almost certainly result in jail time. You can’t replace yourself with a computer program and then choose to take only the benefits and not the responsibilities.

What I don't get is that if this is a test car, how come the the driver did not take over the helm immediately. The driver in that car should be in full alert as if driving the vehicle himself and jump in as needed. Test should not mean to let loose an autonomous car.
Paypal is so strict that even if one knew the password and email they could still could not spend. Paypal forces phone verification if they don't like the IP, which is very common. The phone must match the ID of the paypal account holder, so using a throwaway number will not work.
Dr. Mary Cummings has been working on talking to NHTSA about implementing V and V for autopilots/AI in unmanned vehicles for a few years now. She's also been compiling a dataset exactly like what you are talking about.

I think the idea is to build a "Traincar of Reasonability" to test future autonomous vehicles with.

You might want to check out her research https://hal.pratt.duke.edu/research
Modern aviation includes fully autonomous modes though. An airplanes autopilot is simpler than a car's autonomy, but they accomplish essentially the same goal: get you from point A to point B with no human interaction. AFAIK, even takeoff and landing can be done mostly autonomously on modern aircraft.

If anything, airplanes prove that machines doing most of the work and humans stepping in only when necessary is a proven model.
It is programmed by humans. Machine learning algorithms are designed and implemented by humans. If machine learning algorithms do not perform well in a way that puts human lives at risk, the humans who designed and implemented them are responsible.
Interesting idea to preserve data for very long periods of time. Frank Herbert's books had an idea for a technology that preserved anything (not just data) http://dune.wikia.com/wiki/Nullentropy

There was even a character who had a pill implanted under his skin with cellular samples from many people as a fail safe reference for genetic engineering. Like an implanted library.

Could a useful technology be made out of DNA storage of bitcoin like currency or blockchain IP or contracts? How would it work? Have an implanted pill with artificial DNA inside of it encoding that information? To sign a contract you would have to stick a needle in your arm? Or a thief would need to do the same to steal it?

Or is the idea that information would be encoded in your entire body's DNA so that it would pass down through the generations in case of calamity?

The Tesla shot into space carried a backup of Earth's knowledge in case of calamity: https://medium.com/arch-mission-foundation/arch-mission-foun... The idea is that we may find it in a future where we've partially destroyed ourselves. The Arch may give that future human group a 300 year jump on science, etc.
Not a bad business plan. The market rewards risk. I’ll use Uber as an example.
There aren't a lot of options when you need to have cars turning on roads with bike lanes. At some point the car lane and the bike lane have to cross paths unless you're going to build a fully grade-separated bike lane.

I suppose you could have a wall that separates the bike lane from the road except for a short area where cars can cross over, so that at least there's only a small space where the bikes & cars can interact, but that introduces a bunch of new problems (cars that can't see bikes behind the wall when they go to cross over, cars that run into the wall, probably even more swerving to get into the lane because your choices are do it RIGHT NOW or you're stuck/hit a wall).

Ask HN: Why is there no official Instagram iPad app?
I’ve noticed that many major apps don’t have a version for iPad. Examples off the top of my head are MapMyRun and Instagram.

Why is there such little focus on iPad apps?
Yes, but you might have other legacy systems that implemented the validation rules for passwords. Changing these rules would prevent people from logging into legacy systems if they signed up via a newer flow with fewer restrictions.

> I have seen no evidence that any autonomous vehicle currently deployed can react faster than an alert and aware human.

The argument I've always heard is that an autonomous systems will outperform humans mostly by being more vigilant (not getting distracted, sleepy, etc.) rather than using detectors with superhuman reaction times. Obviously, whether or not this outweighs the frequency of situations where the autonomous system gets confused when a human would not is an empirical question that will change as the tech improves.
This is Uber, who designed systems for remotely wiping entire offices when they thought that the data might be called for by the authorities.

Perhaps there will be unexpected 'issues' meaning that such data will have been lost in this case.
The “not” was spurious; I'm not (and I mean that one) sure of how it got there.

Yes, it's been proven that un-protected bike lanes such as those are very dangerous. There are more and more separators coming out (https://peopleforbikes.org/blog/a-new-generation-of-bike-lan...) to allow for protected bike lanes.

However, I do need to mention that when you choose to bike on the sidewalk, you're creating the same type of problem that cars that ignore traffic rules create for bikes. There's a reason why biking on the sidewalk is illegal in most places, and why bike lanes/roads exist.
That is not the case in this case !

Let say FB wants to do everything Turkey wants, Fine ! ban Kurdistan word and Kurdish language for inside Turkey. (sounds horrific but just to go with your poor loginc, lets do that) BUT still according to your logic...

INSIDE IRAN- word kurdistan is not forbiden, Iran OFFICIALLY has a province called Kurdistan, it is on Iran's official Map.

and I am a Kurd from Iranian Kurdistan, and facebook deleted many Iranian Kurds for posting Kurdish material.

That is a flat disgusting targeting an ethnic group.

That is a no brainer, do not make it like Facebook is an innocent company, trying to not get dragged into regional conflicts.

All I am saying they first came for Kurds you said not my problem. That is a regional Others Problem.

Now they are coming for you. Taste it ! Facebook will screw all you over so bad. just wait and see it happening !
So again if they take it so seriously why enforce such an arbitrary limit on password length?
I feel the same way. A bandaid for the situation: you can use browser extensions/add-ons to restore paste functionality on these web pages. For example, I use this one:

Two of three bank sites I log into regularly are limited to 8 alphanumeric characters, I'm frankly unsure if they even distinguish letter case.

It's probably time to start holding these sites accountable, however anything that could be proposed as regulation by the gov't on this would be a clusterfuck in implementation details, so I have bad feelings all around. I agree that there should be "unlimited" or reasonably limited (64-256 character limit) in input, since hashing will take care of the rest. Personally, I'd love to be able to use pass-phrases, ie, "Because, cookies are awesome!" ... Most of my "really" secure passphrases are like that (password manager, authy, etc).
I am not sure how close it comes, but for PDFs I use SumatraPDF: https://www.sumatrapdfreader.org/free-pdf-reader.html

It is relatively lightweight, can be used without a formal installation (i.e. no admin privileges required), and I like very much that it stores its state between sessions, so when I open it after a reboot, it has all the files open I had open before, and it also saves the position within the files.

Searching within files is not as good as with Apple's Preview.app, but most of the lengthy files I view have decent TOCs, so it is not a big problem for me.
> don't conclude that humans aren't ready to be driving?

I'm not sure I see anyone here making that conclusion. I think you're the only one who's brought it up.

For one, I personally sure as fuck do not think humans are ready to be driving.

> That's an invalid conclusion to draw from this accident.

The conclusion was not invalid at all. Other self-driving car companies have driven more miles than Uber has and they have done so safely. Uber has even taken its cars off the road, so even Uber agrees that their self-driving cars are not ready for the roads yet.

It is also important to take into account what Uber is like when it comes to safety and responsibility. They have knowingly hired convicted rapists for drivers, they have ridiculed and mocked and attempted to discredit their paying customers who have been raped by their employees/drivers, they have spied on journalists, they have completely disregarded human safety on numerous accounts. A company with a track record like Uber's probably not should be granted a license to experiment with technology like these self-driving cars on public roads.

They just aren't responsible enough.
"Hire US Workers" doesn't strike you as anti-immigrant?

I don't see this as looking for constructive reform for, as an example, better conditions for H1B residents who have no mobility or leverage. Its saying "Stop H1B and stop foreigners from taking our jobs". If thats not their message, I don't know what is.
Harassing someone because you think they might be "an illegal" is very much hate/violence. I guarantee you they're not going after suspected Norwegian illegal immigrants.
No, there's no point. You can buy a Pebble 2 HR on Amazon for $90. It will last long into the future (albeit with slightly reduced feature set in July, until the Rebble.io project is up to speed).

DriverMax PRO 9.43 Crack and Serial Keygen Latest Version Download
I fully agree that 1024 bit RSA needs to go.

Beyond that, if I take the insanely bad track record of CAs as a group, and compare to the (as far as I know) complete lack of serious attacks on DNSSEC (including even those with 1024 bit keys), then I would put my money on DNSSEC+DANE.

For DANE you need to do client side validation. But that has been known for quite a while now. And there is code (for example getdns) to do that.

For e-mail there is the additional complexity that DANE seems to be the only way to transition to SMTP over TLS without downgrade attacks.

I do use Complice in tandem with Omnifocus. I use Omnifocus to store big picture planning and all the tasks I want to do in the future. Then on a daily basis I set intentions for the tasks I want to do that day in Complice.

Latest NNG (nanomsg-next-gen) has the ability to support HTTP and SP protocol in the same application. You have to write your own code to map the two and add business logic, but it should be pretty straight-forward.

NNG doesn't have an RDMA style transport today, although that can be developed. (Staysail Systems offers commercial support of NNG and nanomsg, including custom development.)

Ultimately, there are lots of ways to solve this, but you need to have a better understanding of your particular needs -- the fact that you're using DPDK and RDMA suggests to me that latency and performance are very important to you, and some more assessment would be required to make a good recommendation.

If you want, you can reach out to me -- I'm the author of NNG and now maintainer of nanomsg. I'm also the CTO for Staysail, so if you need commercial help, I can offer that. (See www.staystail.tech or info@staysail.tech for contact info.)
"Saying that you want to end H1-B because you think these jobs should go to American citizens is not anti-immigrant."

Yes it is. You're saying that those people should not be able to immigrate to the US.
Not sure how that regulation would have made their cars safer in a way that's relevant to this accident?

Local governments have stopped other self-driving companies before with cease-and-desist letters with threats of serious punitive fines. I highly doubt by not buying a $150 license Uber would suddenly have carte-blanche to do what they want, that's not how it works.

If the state gov was really interested in stopping them they easily could have regardless.
Not really, I've worked on a few projects that never saw the light of day outside my dev environment, but it doesn't bother me because I still got paid. My purpose for working is to get paid.
The car turn-lane is to the right of it, so at least it's maintained as part of the road. Bike lanes that are truly a shoulder with bike symbols painted on are often unmaintained, and full of pot-holes, debris, and such.
Can you provide a source? From all the articles I can find, the language is all pretty much the same:

"Tesla driver killed while using autopilot"

"The Tesla driver killed in the first known fatal crash involving a self-driving car"

"It's been nearly a year and a half since Joshua Brown became the first person to die in a car driving itself."

"Tesla bears some blame for self-driving crash death, feds say"
Unless this was a situation that was impossible to anticipate and avoid, this looks bad. It would mean that both, the autonomous driving system and the safety driver failed.

Not hitting pedestrians should be close to the top in priority, so while failures of the software are certainly expected during this kind of test, this is one of the worst kinds of failures that should have received a lot of attention before ever putting the vehicles on a public road.

The safety driver failing makes me wonder how well qualified they are, or if there is an issue with staying alert for long times without actually driving the car.

> Doing business with US manufacturers has become more and more difficult over time.

Any thoughts on why?
This didn't need to happen. It's indefensible that it did.

And there's still no proof that self-driving cars are safer than humans when confronted with novel situations, i.e., the situations most likely to result in injuries and fatalities. If anything, the evidence thus far is that self-driving cars are more dangerous than ones driving by humans.
Software is an asset that depreciates over time. It's not an expenditure in the sense of when one spends money on, say, a trip, which would become an instant expense.
They also wish to get rid of many other immigration programs. However, they have chosen to focus on this one.
It's not about sympathy. It's about one question: do they kill fewer or more people than humans per mile?

If they kill fewer people, they can be run by a joint venture of Satan and the Mafia for all I care.
> Waymo et al has had none of these issues. Time to revoke their licence to test?

I think Alphabet is to blame here too in a sense (or at least the industry as a whole). Why didn't they push for more strict testing rules? It's in their interest too.

Ok, I've seen this statement quite often from all these worker unions. Can someone point me to a source showing:

1.what fraction of the job market H1B workers took away?

2.among these jobs taken, how many were taken by H1B workers that are brought in directly from other countries?

3.how many are people who went through college/master/PhD eduction in the US and followed the rules and got H1B?

It must not be hard for DHS to gather these stats, right? It would be a lot easier to counter arguments/come up with strategies using these statistics.
It's actually a pretty serviceable app, at least for my personal mail. I generally want something heavier weight, like Outlook, for work mail, though.

Yeah the variable depth-of-field not working well at < 1 ft is a just a property of the hardware sensors. I guess I don't know exactly what they are but if it's time of flight or stereo then they could make it work better at closer ranges but then it wouldn't work as well farther away.

I don't think that's insensitive to the death. It's properly placing (partial) blame on the cause of the accident.

A better design for that intersection would be to keep the bike lane against the sidewalk and the turn lane inside of that, so that they don't cross, and have a "no turn on red" sign, so that the paths of bicyclists and people turning in cars never cross as long as everyone obeys the stoplight and sign.
