> I would add that you lack cooking knowledge and ability. If you knew how, you wouldn't say such things.

There are a lot of things in life that people know how to do but still hate...

I might know how to drive to work for 45 minutes everyday, I can do it, I can do it well, I can still hate it because it's a waste of time that I'd rather be using for something else.

Hell, people do jobs to earn a living that they're entirely competent at but still hate.

So no, knowing how to do something doesn't automatically mean you don't hate it, does it?

For those interested in open source 3D CAD applications, there's a really interesting application called SolveSpace which is a very, very fast and low resource 3D parametric CAD application.

It's really useful, really fast and very stable - all in a tiny executable. Definitely worth a try if you're coming from a CAD background - it's the first open source 3D CAD application I've used which could replace Solidworks for quick, painless part modelling.

> there will still be a bunch of people writing blog posts that are not so concerned.

I assume that 80-90% of blogs already have RSS, just due to default configurations. Seems to me the context here is about pushing adoption and design significantly beyond that, both in terms of consumers and producers.

I can't say for certain that a pingback URL system would be acceptable, but I strongly suspect a dramatic comeback requires drastic measures.
An experiment in DC[0] cut costs by 75%: no change in outcomes. An experiment in Kansas increased costs to comical levels[1]: no change in outcomes. The literature on educational interventions is to a first approximation 100% null results. The US already spends significantly more than much-admired Finland (and more than the OECD average)[2]. Educational costs have ballooned with no corresponding change in results[3].

The whole thing is a sham.

>Where does it say on the receipt that I am agreeing to the cardholder agreement?

It used to be standard ~15-20 years ago. I don't see that verbiage any more.

Fun fact, when I worked in retail in the late 90s, the full card number was not really treated as a secret that needed to be protected - the registers we had had a full audit trail printed on a receipt roll inside the register, every time any transaction was inputted the receipt roll would print the details of the transaction. The full card number was first printed on that. Then it was printed on the signature paper. The receipt itself had the last 4 only.

Don't understand at all. Why is it a problem that I'm preparing the sauce (which actually requires my attention) while the pasta is cooking? Anything other than arrogance?

Don't even try to make me believe that you get 'better pasta' by fussing over it. Its not the star of the dish - its just a vehicle, and 'cooking' is just making it softer. Not adding anything magical.

> Is it possible to get a cooly-detached, non-ideologically-charged, objective perspective on the purpose and pro's of charter schools?

With any hot topics it is difficult to remove personal views from the subject, but let me try.

The premise of charter schools is that US public school system is rigidly set in a pretty bad state. No change is coming internally (as with any bureaucracy). Good new teachers are very difficult to hire (compensation goes to most senior folks, not most capable). Parents know what schools and teachers give their kids good education, but cannot vote with their wallets. Charter schools provide an alternative and competition.

Some examples where this competition works better are: US colleges (expensive but good: many foreigners are coming to study there and pay the exorbitant tuition; few come to US public schools). Finland: letting parents use public money spent on public school tuition for private schools helped Finland school system go from one of the worst to one of the best in one generation.

> The thing is... there is no teacher union in my state.

What are GAE, PACE and MACE? This is an honest question -- I know nothing about Georgia unions; this is just a google search for "Georgia teachers union"
Wikipedia defines capital as "a factor of production that is not wanted for itself but for its ability to help in producing other goods". That's the definition I learned in high school while studying Marx.

There is not an "after capital" world. To manufacture anything you need capital first. Even for software services you need software, that's also capital. So to reach a world of post-scarcity you need a lot of capital.

It could be a scientific instrument, measuring e.g. thermal gradients deep underground, and communicating them to the surface with soundwaves.

And then someone will find a vulnerability in the thermocouple data processing code and will pwn the box by cunningly heating and cooling the surface above (possibly with low-yield nuclear warheads).
You missed two points. Firstly "at different times" meaning people who are all there at 3pm one day, 10am a different day, and 4:30pm on another day. That's a strong indicator that they're not there coincidently if they don't appear there at other times as well. Secondly you missed where I said "likely to know each other". Mining large data sets for relationships is all about probability, as nothing is really guaranteed to be 100% certain, but you can get to quite high confidence levels with relatively small amounts of data.

This does look interesting. I don't see a difference between this and any other server-side templating language though. I actually need an isomorphic representation on the client and server. (this is what makes renderToString() valuable) I guess I could be extremely careful in writing the server output, and writing the client output to match, but at that point, I'd be writing it twice... and I could use any language... unfortunately, it'd probably end up being Handlebars.

It's a generic peer-to-peer networking library written in Rust.

* various NAT traversal techniques are implemented: hole punching, UPnP/IGD, etc.
* it supports both TCP and UDP. In case of UDP it uses uTP: http://www.bittorrent.org/beps/bep_0029.html
* all messages are encrypted
* it implements automatic peer discovery on LAN
* it caches it's previous connections and is able to reuse them in the future

I've used that lots of times, and I wish Chrome treats them breakpoints less ephemerally :). Nowadays I debug simultaneously on Intellij and Chrome DevTools, thanks to the new standardized debug protocol. It's very neat to be able to save sets of breakpoints that just do logging, and you sorta can do that manually because intellij saves them in the project's config xml.

Ad monetization options besides Adsense?

Not to you I guess. The server has only a very fixed opportunity to get tipped in a shift. To miss out on one is actually significant. Not to mention depressing.
>> This view on sharing hardware seems too pessimistic to me. Strong isolation should be achievable when it is the design objective and and priority.

I think it's spot-on. Isolation has never been the top priority. Regardless of the priority, if one simply views all "untrusted code" as "code created by my enemy" the solution becomes clear - don't run it.

>> JavaScript has proven that sharing hardware with untrusted code is just too valuable to give up...

This is something I strongly disagree with. Javascript has become a common way to handle things but it's not the only way. In my opinion it's the lazy way - most people want to just use what's there and common rather than solve a few problems.

>> I'm also happy whenever a headline brings attention to these types of problems because I believe we can fix them.

One thing I'm seeing is that CPUs with speculative execution have lower performance/watt and performance/area. So in the cloud space it seem like just going to simpler CPU cores may be a solution (risc-v Esperanto Minions for example). Obviously that's not a solution where single thread performance is critical.

Necco candies are an old world thing. Nothing else like them. And everyone hates at least one flavor. Good.

The white, pink, brown are my favorites.

IMHO, these things need to exist. Marketing on line one, stat!

I don't believe I have ever seen even a single Necco AD. They should change that. The flavors are amazing, have complexity, and are very distinctive. Again, nothing else like it.

For a time, I saw sour edition candies, where some citrus like flavor was added. Seems to me, they could explore some. People like stranger things.

Necco needs a decent campaign or two. Maybe just social media. Possibly updated packaging, though I really like the simple, again, old world package.

Don't let these things go the way of Cool Kids candy.

I imagine that some of that will be going to pay posties more, and provide better services for them. Whilst I hope a good deal of the back office is automated, there is still a great deal of manual work.

The best countries for entrepreneurs
Yes, but they are putting together a huge sales team, their customers are using their video player and a video encoding service. That means they also have the need for video storage, a video CDN, etc. So they waste a lot of potential.

Building a encoding service in the cloud era, even for live video, isn't really that hard. The hard part is that every customer has different needs and different source files, if you build it inhouse you are only building it for one customer, yourself.
In democracies there's a tension between wanting to have have elected representatives represent smaller numbers of people so as to be more responsive on one hand, and wanting them to represent more people so that you can keep the number of legislatures not too far over Dunbar's number.

So there's a complete optical path from the lens to the viewfinder. Even if you retract the mirror, you still need to then insert an electronic viewfinder into the path somewhere that displays what the sensor is receiving.

Attacks against a host system of a virtual machine or of a shared system have been speculated about for quite a long time.

I really do not think it should be a surprise to anyone that these vulnerabilities are being announced. Yeah, it certainly stands up shake up our industry... but I am not sure we were blindsided by it.

Using shard or managed hardware has always been a compromise between the increased risk against the convenience. Nobody wants to build a data center out of their office anymore.

Some of this risk can be mitigated by using managed but dedicated hardware. More expensive, but the option exists just about everywhere.

What makes a tree a tree?
The argument being made here is not that we don't need the things we call capital, it's that we have enough capital now that allocating it is not the primary problem we need our economy to solve, and that the current system we use to do so (i.e. Capitalism) is limiting our ability to prioritise anything other than the creation of more capital.

Therefore I would read the title not as "after capital ceases to exist" but "after capital ceases to be as relevant".
It may not have been the case in Europe; the decline in circulation in the print media in the US was widely discussed as long trend in the late 1980s and early 1990s, and attributed to a number of factors, most notably (but not exclusively) the wave of mergers and associated cuts in local newsrooms and non-wire-service content in the preceding couple of decades.

> Overall I’d say open source software is at best weakly correlated with improved security posture. As it turns out most people don’t inspect their code before running it, and this includes those who fully buy into the many eyes aphorism.

I and sure many others do look at the code, even for languages that I don't know. I often end up removing functionality that I don't need (less unnecessary code often means less security vulnerabilities) or patch it slightly to suit my needs better. For proprietary code I don't have that luxury, the other issue is that a lot of free-ware software tracks you and won't give you any opt-out options.

It's not weakly correlated if let's say I can remove finger protocol and get direct security benefits. Things like that make outdated proprietary binaries unusable from security perspective.

> approximately all of them are woefully incapable of identifying real vulnerabilities beyond all but the lowest hanging fruit.

Sure, but more often that not it is those that will get exploited and open source makes it damn easy to fix. Bug bounty shouldn't be the only incentive to make the software more secure.
Social content platform for collecting great content in one place
There's three related things: Parallella, Adapteva, and Epiphany.

Parallella is the board project. Originally with 16-core and 64-core boards, I think only 16-core boards are still available.

Epiphany is the CPU architecture. It has a bunch of limitations, but it's also small, fast, and low-power, so if your application works within those limits, it might be a good option.

Originally specced to include 16, 64, and 1024-core chips, I think the 64-core and 1024-core variants are no longer available.

And finally, Adapteva was/is the company. It ran a successful crowd-funding campaign for the Parallella project, but wasn't able to convert that momentum into an ongoing CPU-manufacturing business.

Andreas Olofsson, the core of the whole thing, moved on to work at DARPA, I think, and I fear that's the end of the road. There's still some academic work done with the Parallella boards, and there's no reason you couldn't use one today, but I wouldn't expect there to be any new products in the family.

I don't know anything about the GPIOs, sorry.

For your algo, there's a bunch of cheap(-ish) FPGA boards out there. Unless you're planning to use the Epiphany chip as well as the Zync, you might be better off using something with a future roadmap?
