You misunderstand. Due diligence on the part of those reporting the vulnerability.
Leading by example trickles down a lot more consistently than money. Reddit leads by arbitrary censorship. On niche subs you used to be able to fairly regularly have HN quality discussions with people you disagree with. In the past ~3yr it's become a lot more rare to happen. Disagreement gets silenced.
Because they own those hard drives. Their employees do not.
> Social Economic Justice Round

What is a Social Economic Justice Round?
Yup. Even before school comes into play, daycare is a major factor as-well. My wife and I applied to 6 different daycare centers when we found out she was pregnant. Despite paying application fees, we got into none of them due to overcrowding. We did receive a phone call about two years after my child was born, offering us a spot in one of them, but we'd since left the city.
The problem with that theory is that wealthy people generally have good health insurance.
I believe there is a Usenet newsgroup, somewhere under alt.binaries, that's effectively a numbers station: it's just GPG-encrypted (but not signed) blobs with no titles. Anyone can post, anyone can listen, everyone has to download everything to figure out which things they can personally decrypt.

Sadly, googling related keywords doesn't seem to pull up the name of the newsgroup. I believe I read about it during a discussion on a Tor onion-site forum, on "why people keep getting caught doing illegal things on Tor, and what real OPSEC looks like."

Fabrice Bellard: Portrait of a Super-Productive Programmer
I don’t understand how the article can bemoan high rents but then also say urban cores are overbuilt? Overbuilding drives down rents, which isn’t great for developers but not exactly a problem for the rest of us.

Miami is going through the same, so many condo towers are going up it’s suppressing rents - in the most expensive area of the city. Yes, they are premium units, but the supply drives down rents across the board.
It was covered a bit in the article but I think it needs some additional visibility. Not only did plenty of developers have access to the same data, there were a number of parallel research projects investigating manipulation of online communities using very similar techniques. It was no secret amongst those in the field and in fact Chris Sumner had been speaking about it for a number of years at DEF CON. His DEF CON 25 presentation seems especially on-point upon reflection:

FWIW the Android app "reddit is fun" hasn't really "feedified" reddit. It's my old standby. Much better than the ones that try to gussy things up.
I really liked Geoff Hinton's Neural Networks for Machine Learning (https://www.coursera.org/learn/neural-networks). It goes into a lot of depth (much more so than Andrew Ng's Machine Learning course) and is fairly challenging.
> accurately displays receipt information on a screen before paying, accepts chip, automatically prints relevant coupons, automatically adds product recalls on the receipt, and doesn't nag me to sign up for a custom credit card.

None of these (maybe save for the last if you have a cashier that isn't doing their job) is going to differ between the two cashiers as they'd be store-level policies.
It sure seems to me that "enterprise" Linux distros not supporting modern languages/compilers (e.g., Python 2.7 in RHEL6) only hurts Linux adoption overall and its reputation.

"You overestimate the cost of speculative gambles"

No, I remember my history.

"if the regulation costs you your job"

What regulation? The regulation saying that you can't screw people over? I wouldn't find myself in that job to start with.

"Because as far as i know the government has never given a check to compensate for its mistakes."

Not true in the least. Retraining programs to help people get into other industries have been all over. It's just the deficit hawk Republicans who tend to cut them.
> My gut is telling me this is a metric to evaluate the education system for families to move there (or remain there).

Exactly. Their employees aren't going to want to move somewhere with bad school systems, even if SAT scores are largely just a measure of home prices. This doesn't strike me as being especially controversial.
They mean that the majority of society needs to care more collectively. If that were to happen then there would be impact.
That does seem good, but when you consider that it’s basically just doing a DB query for an IP (and there might be a clever way to store CIDRs where the DB finds it within a range) + authentication, authorization, and accounting ( AAA), it becomes a bit less impressive. I’m guessing again that the AAA stuff is actually more work than the actual lookups. I’ve made some services which use geoip before with in-memory lookups. Since it doesn’t change that frequently, aside from AAA, you don’t really need an external DB at all — just have the actual executable contain the lookup info, now you’re down to just lambda. Actually, don’t even build a service — just distribute a binary with the tables inside, so then customers don’t even need to make a call, wait, and pay for each call. Consider how well that would scale (and indeed this is already the business model for some of the MaxMind products (e.g. https://www.maxmind.com/en/geoip2-city ), but it doesn’t make for as interesting of an article.
This story is wrong and misleading.

It claims that the new york times and guardian have reported CA's behavior as "hacking". Here's a thorough depiction of what CA did by the times and it does not use that term and basically describes what the story describes:
https://www.nytimes.com/2018/03/17/us/politics/cambridge-ana...

A critique of this type should cite specific sources and at least attempt to be more evidence based. It would NOT be difficult to be more careful and do so.

This story's approach is propaganda, not debate.

> the traffic shouldn't be any worse than what google or cloudflare resolvers are seeing.

What are you basing that on? How many people do you think are really using Google DNS or Cloudfare DNS? I think even if just Comcast changed their defaults, the root servers would see a order of magnitude more traffic than Google or Cloudfare see.

One of the reasons DNS is hierarchical is for load distribution (and performance). Taking this design principle and all of a sudden throwing it out the window would likely have major consequences for a system that was originally designed and scaled with it in mind.
I know that rents in those places has plateaued, but there's so much demand that even a steady outstream of new parents might not make a dent in housing prices. NYC rents dipped recently for the first time in years, but as somebody who's currently shopping around for apartments in NYC, the changes aren't really substantial to the end renter.
Not that I know of, other than sensible design. I used Slack's original 'playful' brand as inspiration by pairing a more rounded font with a vibrant color palette. But thank you!
Is it a DNS block, change DNS to 8.8.8.8 (Google) or somesuch?
I built a standard (non gfx) Ryzen to replace my old back up box, and it's been 99% fine. The only issue is the slow POST time, but that's an MSI thing and not a Ryzen thing.

The rollout of new mainboards and Zen+(non gfx integrated) CPU's should be a lot smoother than their initial effort since they've all had a year to learn from their mistakes.
You are choosing to not engage with the author and simply repeating your own opinion. Its obvious to me that your disagreement is actually not even relevant to the article or to what the author is saying.

>There is no statement about giving proper credit (vanity) or not being allowed to reinvent the wheel without first making damn sure that you are indeed reinventing.

The article isn't a discussion about what science means. Its a discussion about the principles of research that all of our current scientific progress is based upon. One of those principles is the organization and structuring of knowledge. Citations are one of the means of linking knowledge that allows easy navigation between topics and ideas for people both inside and outside the field. Because of the collective effort of people citing other work, it saves time and money of everyone involved since they can easily hop between topics and ideas without having to read a million unorganized pages of scientific data and figure it out every single time.

> I think there is something seriously wrong if that is not perceived as a crisis in the academic world.

Um, you don't really get to tell someone they're doing it wrong, when what they're doing has worked out brilliantly for the human race.
Research exists that indicates people choose to move to suburbs when they have a family for many reasons besides financial. Suburbs are viewed as safer and more private, and additional outdoor space is valued over location proximity.

On the other hand, research indicates people choose to live in cities for career advancement and to find a mate.

Dallas also has a sizable amount of really unsexy business process automation-type development jobs - it's the original home if both EDS and Perot Systems, for instance, and DXC and NTT DATA still have sizable facilities there.

Dallas isn't the #1 tech job location or anything, but there's a decent workforce and Amazon would be a fairly unique offering in the Dallas area.
You are right about both points, but :

* The best way to make VR and 3D browsing a thing is to have URLs to 3D/VR spaces because urls can be easily shared and most devices have Browsers.

* It is hard to do something beautiful with WebVR but keeping things simple and allowing 3D models can go a long way. I think that currently running smoothly on a mid-end smartphone is more important than photorealism.

* Game engines are too elitist. Common people have to be able to create 3D spaces very easily, with no code, no 3D modeling knowledge. Then they have to be able to share (deploy) with a single click. The web is the absolute platform for this.

Thank you for your message, you are absolutely right about the newsletter !
I don't know if its still the case, but I can honestly say with a straight face that at various points in the past decade I've used Netbeans for C development and it was fantastic. My understanding is that a lot of the Netbeans C/C++ code was ported over from Sun Studio, which is why it is so solid and mature.
Maybe, maybe not. A key difference is your friends are posting for themselves, but the suggestions are posts tailored for _you_.

My bad for missing this when I did a quick search of your website. Glad to see you guys still sticking up for the good fight, even if it is never ending. Do you see any particular clear legislation coming out of this that I can call my representatives over? Any call to action to refute this report in particular?

Thanks for chiming in!

> Now that Ubuntu has dropped it, many users state to actually have liked Unity and are sad about that change.

Maybe that is because the people who complained back then dropped Unity and/or dropped Ubuntu entirely. At least I did so and I would not have known that Ubuntu dropped Unity if I didn't read your comment.
I know, I worked on the project that enabled it. This was more to the latter part of the comment, that games will not be designed around that modality and would always be altered accordingly. Not necessarily a downside for everyone (and more of a presumption), I should point out. :)
Please don't use > to quote. It's broken for mobile users.
It's indeed dense and packed with many intermediate intuitions.

On the other hand, I still feel that the course is often unnecessarily brutal and could use better explanations.
> I have no real tools to do so on Ubuntu

Ansible works pretty well for managing Windows machines but it requires a little bit more up-front setup on the Windows side and as always YMMV depending on what you're trying to do.
Just want to say that the wife and I love using your site. I would apply in a heartbeat if it allowed Remote. Keep up the good work!
Don't doubt your experience at all (while driving today was going back and forth on whether I'd prefer moving back into the city or further into the suburbs, and honestly not sure), but there's lots of people who just like the suburbs. Yeah, there's lots of wasted space and it's very residential, but that wasted space is nice in a way. It's a much quieter place. Especially when raising kids, unless you can move into the nicest neighborhoods, the burbs are an easy option for many people and not just due to money.

I've lived in a very urban area and I miss it but I really don't. It's harder to get away there. I don't mind helping homeless people, but dealing with aggressively mentally ill people every other time you step out the door or drug addicts screaming at each other in the middle of the night is not something that's enjoyable. That happens in the city, I've never experienced it the suburbs. It just seemed like you always had to be on alert. Maybe that says a lot about how we handle social problems, but it can't be easily discounted.
My mom was telling me yesterday that a big part of the political agenda in South Carolina revolves around education. Apparently, they're finding it very difficult to encourage companies to locate firms there because it's so difficult to find local talent. It costs far more to relocate people than it does to find someone local.

So lots of legislative activity around education policies.

Idk why everyone in here and on r/redesign can't take off their rose-colored glasses and admit that current (old?) Reddit has some pretty glaring usability issues.

I know I avoided Reddit for the longest time simply due to the fact that there was a learning curve at all...and I know many, many people that would adore Reddit actively avoid it because it's a little overwhelming and hard to use at first. People seem to really underestimate just how important that first couple of seconds on a new website are.

Granted, a lot of people pushed passed the quirks and the learning curve and grew to love the site we all know today - that's evident by the massive user base - but I just don't understand why everyone is so vehemently against a redesign effort when the site was clearly a hodgepodge.

Now, I'm not arguing that the current redesign is great and a smashing success, I think they're missing the mark on what made Reddit great in the first place...but to sit here and yell "If it ain't broke don't fix it" is laughable. The performance might be superb but the UX is atrocious, everyone has just learned to get over it.
Unpopular truth... but most companies (and people) looking for places to move to will, in reality, factor those biases into their decision rather than correct them out.

Who honestly ever says, "Oh, this location is fantastic... as long as you close your eyes and imagine a completely different population living there!"? There are many moral considerations to argue, but raw outcomes do usually prevail.
I'm not sure about python's, but thankfully tcl's interpreter is so small you can package it with all your other code.

Edit: Is there a python equivalent of tclquadcode, https://core.tcl.tk/tclquadcode/dir?ci=tip - which should compile tcl into llvm's IR?
There are other interests besides what you might find on HN. Talk to someone about law or music or philosophy or art. Not everyone particularly cares about life extension, robots, or AI (I certainly don’t). Maybe it’s not that everyone is boring, but rather that they simply don’t share your interests.
I actually don't want any of those things, not even markdown support.

The site IMO does what it needs to very well and I value the minimalism a lot. Would hate to see it cluttered with extra chrome, images, karma, summaries. And instead of social login try using a password manager.
Indeed! Hence your Xanadu toot train in that list :)

Good point. A lot of people are criticizing you for "preaching" about using an iPad for their work, when in fact you are just sharing your dev setup for us to read. It won't work for everyone, but it works for you so who are we to criticize you?

Anyway, you have an interesting setup and I want to thank you for sharing!

Aside, I also run a Pixel LS with Crouton and love it still.
I was hoping there would be an 'atomic swap' type app that let you swap between one altcoin to another. Hope they will do pairs with fiat so you can just cash out easily too.
Not that much different today, a significant portion of high quality talent is still being drawn into the defense industry. But largely to destroy people's privacy and exploiting the weak state of information security instead of killing people.
