How about

return out;
(void)zero;

instead of the whole preprocessor magic for clang?

And while we're taking suggestions, use a named struct, that keeps you from making up a new type for every case.
I can only offer hearsay since a friend is employed by FB. With that disclaimer, I will say that, apparently, FB employees are all across the board on the issue...HOWEVER, there are an increasing number of FB employees privately revealing that they no longer tell people exactly who employs them.
I'm shocked. No one saw this coming.

Decoupling Safety and Security from the Almighty Dollar is a noble pursuit.
Hi Rich, thanks for the response. I guess I just found it a bit hard to see the lines between "here's a good strategy" and "here's our strategy". Where you are writing "we have a tiered set of recommendations for who to outsource to", you could add something like "for our developers, ..." or "at Intercom, ..." and it would be much better placed into context.

Otherwise I really enjoyed the article, it resonated well with my own thoughts and vision.
Sorry to be blunt -- I mean no offense, we all started somewhere. To me, it reads like a beginners experiment. All that #pragma stuff, that first param ('zero') that is all not needed for the effect. The 'zero' and 'return;' stuff reads to me like someone is assuming typeof() evaluates its argument so someone must do somethings against it executing. It looks bloated with stuff a beginner does not realise is unnecessary.

I suppose the point is to declare a tuple directly as a return type without a typedef. Then, to return a value, use 'typeof' to declare a return variable of that anonymous type. So, the whole point is to avoid a typedef, I think:

typedef struct { int x; int y; } foo_result_t;
foo_result_t foo(int a, int b) {
return (foo_result_t){ a*a, a/b };
}
int main(void) {
foo_result_t a = foo(40,2);
}

Instead of typedef, use typeof and __auto_type. Without the bloat:

struct { int x; int y; } foo(int a, int b)
{
typeof(foo(a,b)) out = { a*a, a/b };
return out;
}
int main(void) {
__auto_type a = foo(40,2);
}

It is a bit underwhelming. But it tought me something: I did not know GCC's (and Clang's?) __auto_type extension (new since gcc 4.9, apparently). It looks great for compiler specific magic macros! :-)
> The german guy who was caught was saying a lot of these things which obviously weren't true, like claiming that a lot of other players in top teams were cheating on LAN, but in hindsight that hardly seems believable.

I mean, there were 3 pro players banned in like a week. I doubt this was coincidence [1].

> A driver cheat which would auto-inject code on insertion would as far as I know require a 0-day exploit on Windows, and I have a hard time believing one of the cheat makers was sitting on one of those

It's not completely out of the question. Check out this DEF CON hack which illustrates something similar[2].

I'm not saying all education systems are perfect, I'm sure they can be improved. And problems are not solved by education alone, you need a engineering/scientific mindset, that you only get from higher education, or acquired by self study and inquisitivity. The opposite is ignorance, which can be a bliss, but it will not help solve conflicts and problems.
I meant "not get indexed" as in preventing this comment from showing up in searches for the unobfuscated text.
There's no such thing as web application development "without a framework".

There is only a choice between using someone else's framework, and inevitably building your own. If you reject all third-party frameworks, you will end up reinventing a bunch of design patterns from other frameworks. You will end up writing your own libraries to do the things the framework would have done. And you will -- no matter how good or fast it feels to you -- end up spending more time in the writing and maintenance of your private "non-framework" than you would have spent in deploying an existing one off-the-shelf.
> However, as John noted in the beginning, those blatant cheats mostly have one reason to exist: to actively and obviously spoil the fun of others involved, so to improve things to players of that game, it's a very good starting point.

This is very true (and very important), but I don't think you need AI to detect blatant cheats. IMO, simple heuristics can do the job better.
That doesn't seem like too hard of a criterion to fulfill, but well, I'm rather fond of QuiteRSS.

It has all of the options for automatic filtering and tagging, and its UI is rather configurable, too. It's also open-source.

That's somewhat what federation solves. You pick out an instance which represents a particular way of moderating. You can still listen in on (most) of the other network.

If you don't like the moderation/government of your instance, you pick another.

Except when it’s not, and they want back the data they’ve deleted by mistake.

In those cases it will take a lot of support to explain that what is gone is gone. I think customers don’t have a unified vision of what deleting means, they just want what’s optimal for the situation.
I think you should change the title to include something along the line of "According to sources: " or "Unconfirmed".

Why would they? They implement their system the way they want to. Also, this is a completely logical way to deal with deletions. This is what I would do, (what I have done, when I created a simple CMS system). I don't want an endless quarrel with a customer, who "accidentally" deleted something and wants it back. I just turn the switch and it is back.
Satellites and space stations are neither aerodynamic nor dense. If anything survives reentry, drag will slow it down until it might still damage a regular building but will do nothing to an impact resistant concrete dome designed to resist plane crashes.

A big meteor could punch through both the concrete dome and the underlying steel containment. If that happens, we will probably be glad it hit the reactor and not nearby New York City. As long the meteor doesn't replace the steel containment structure with a crater but merely damages it (after obliterating the dome), we have at worst a second Fukushima. What made Chernobyl so bad was that the cooling water caused a giant steam explosion, carrying radioactive material high into the atmosphere. That failure mode is impossible in any reactor operated today.
About [2], yeah, that's the way it could happen without a 0-day, but it really does seem very, very impractical, risky and unlikely.

Out of sf, KQLY and Emilio, it does seem likely that both sf and Emilio would cheat online in order to qualify, but KQLY whose team almost always passed online qualifiers? I have no idea.

If I recall correctly, Emilio was banned months prior to the others though, and he hardly played any major LANs. sf and KQLY were using the same cheat, but there's nothing which makes it seem like it happened on LANs.

Either way, it's impossible to say what happened years ago, but if it did happen, I doubt it kept happening.

We've also had several government scrappage schemes in the UK so you pretty much don't see anything older than 15 years on the road. In addition our cars rust more due to weather and salt used on the road.

The first thing I noticed when I went to South Africa was the older cars on the road. Some cars that I remember from my childhood but had completely forgotten about until that point. I never realised the turnover in the UK was so high until I came back.
We are wise animals but still animals.. I am guessing and it’s a guess since I don’t have any facts to substantiate this claim that we perhaps were not meant to be so techy or take so much mental stress. Starting from stressful college education to financial career, I am still at loss why even humanity moved to this direction... quality of life is a delusion ... human adjust to their given environment . In recent times.. all the progress is pacing out leading to even more stress .. do we really need so much progress so fast ??

Do you think it's as easy as "rm"-ing a file away? Your data is kept internally in a multitude of different databases. Parts of it sitting in cold storage. Log files, caches. That data is split across thousands of different nodes. Each system has different data retention policies. Some databases don't permit removal of a specific record - the records must "expire" first. It really does take time to delete data.

To offer another point of contrast - while it's true that you often need to spend a year taking courses, in most graduate programs they're very very flexible on what courses to take. And those courses themselves are very flexible on how much work you want to do.

I don't find this too troubling - it's important to have a shared fundamental knowledge so you can communicate effectively and not reinvent the wheel, and I don't think most programs are giving you busy work (that's really against the whole ethos).
To be accurate, the cathedral under question was converted into a mosque more than 400 years ago during the Ottoman rule.
Very poor data to support your point.

> There is a modest decline in war support as educational levels increase from high school or less, to some college, to college graduate (with no postgraduate education). However, the largest gap occurs at the highest level, between those with a postgraduate education and those without. Only among the postgraduate group is the majority opposed to war, 56% to 40%, while the other three categories all show majority support.

Postgraduates almost don't count since there are so few of them in a civil society. So virtually no difference between high school level and college graduates, which does not support your point.

The parenting analogy is good, except ... we tolerate our children because they are our own.

I'm a parent myself and I have infinite patience with my son. But few people have the energy and patience to tolerate and educate other people's children and those that do usually work in education.

I can't stand other people's children running amok in restaurants for example.
And I won't try to educate them, after all, I'm there to eat and maybe have a nice conversation with people I care about. I also won't try to educate their parents either. If they left their kids to run amok in that restaurant, then they are probably beyond educating.

What I will do instead is to complain to the waiter. And then leave without leaving a tip if s/he does nothing about it. Because unless you have a big sign on your door that suggests "screaming children are welcome", then having other people's children screaming in my ear and running between the tables while I'm eating is not OK and I couldn't give a damn about the context that made that happen. Not my problem.

And so it is with online communities in general ;-)

If you're the educator type, good for you, I'm very grateful that such people exist. Other people are not and think they have better things to do.

Are you perhaps European? I recognize your sentiment of people doing a PhD to continue being a student, but it seems the majority of HN doesn't. This suggests, this kind of thing doesn't happen in the US.

This comment seems to suggest that your're unaware of the big difference between OpenBazaar and the Silk Road, which is why you believe my comments about legality are disingenuous and irrelevant.

Come to Europe. Or at least to some European countries. In mine, Spain, Ph.D. programs now have no courses at all (let alone homework). They are exclusively research-oriented, your goal is to produce good research (papers) and then your thesis. Also, the duration is capped at 4 years, and the tuition fee at my university is around €250/year. Other European countries have similar systems.
I share most of your toughts, they really should put some real effort in UX. Example: domains informations are linked to user accounts, if you want to edit registrant, administrative or technical contacts you are required to create full OVH user profiles.
Unfortunately there will be no prizes for having been right all along.

Even now, as facebook is burning, statements of how one has quit or will be quitting facebook get swept into the pile of incendiary indignation, with encouragement from all sides.

But never having used facebook, even at significant personal effort as you indicate, one is relegated from "elitist" before to "smug" now.

One day in the future a recruiter will ask why there's nothing about you on the Internet, and you will proudly be able to say: "Because I know the Internet and its dynamics that well" and they will hire you, in awe of your analytical foresight.

That's the dream anyway, because you're more likely to be reported for being suspicious. After facebook there will be another facebook, and another, and people will flock to them just the same, and you get to experience being an antisocial hermit all over again.

In mathematics (and mathematical physics), these are called string diagrams.
