TL;DR: Author doesn't like the new look of Eclipse's rewrite and therefore, without further evidence, claims it's dead. There's really not more than incomplete opinion in this article.

There might be a real discussion here, though. E.g. as far as I know anybody who ever tried IntelliJ loved it so much that he never wanted to switch back to Eclipse. In the circle around me, 100% of people. Other people may see different outcomes. But still both Eclipse and IntelliJ where both kind of considered leaders in the Java IDE market for a long time. So it might be really interesting to discuss the strenghts and weaknesses of both.

Also a good discussion could be had how the path to Eclipse 4 developed and how things might've been done differently. That would require analysing other IDEs like the Microsoft's as well.

So, you know. Quite a wasted opportunity, right here. If someone reads this and felt like upvoting, could you put into a few sentences why?
Or, more to the point, not one single person has any recourse, whether they're an evil serial killer/rapist or not.

But, I'm trying to think about a situation where a secret identity might leave behind trace evidence that could be linked to a readily identifiable relative's samples, thus unmasking... say Spiderman.

I guess, any situation involving trespassing or physical presence under other circumstances, where a person might leave behind a single hair follicle, including the root of the strand.
The stock contains sodium and it contains glutamate from the protein in the chicken. It therefore contains MSG in the same way that salt water contains salt.
This has been my observation as well. It also seems that a lot of teams that do that are kind of snooty about Django, not realising that they've essentially invented a worse version of it.

Ask HN: Resources for learning ARM Assembly?
I recently bought a Parallella board which uses an Arm A9. Here is what they say:

The Parallella includes a low power dual core ARM A9 processor and runs several of the popular Linux distributions, including Ubuntu.

The unique Epiphany co-processor chips consists of a scalable array of simple RISC processors programmable in bare metal C/C++ or in a parallel programming frameworks like OpenCL, MPI, and OpenMP.

Does anyone have any resources for learning ARM Assembly?
I agree completely. I live in portland, and just next door they tore down a nice craftsman bungalow which the developer purchased for 450k, and then built an enormous 3-story monstrosity in. All the other homes in the neighborhood are 1 or 2 stories, so this gigantic building sticks out like a laughably sore thumb.

There are six 2-bedroom units, and each unit will probably sell for 500k. There is no parking since the building fills up the entire lot.

You know who lived in the bungalow before? a low-income family. Do you think this new condo building helped them have affordable housing? NOPE!

All this development does is push people who were already here out, and allow a flood of rich folks to move in. It does nothing for affordability.

Edit: found some more details over on reddit[0]:

I didn't see the existing TLS PR, and I'm not finding it now. Do you have a link?

As for why fork and not PR, Salvatore already closed the Transactions PR and said he didn't want Redis to go in that direction. And when searching about SSL/TLS in Redis itself, I found this: https://redis.io/topics/encryption , read the implementation of spiped (it uses fixed 1k block sizes), then realized that SSL/TLS is the right answer in this situation.

Could transactions be a module? I was about halfway through the cluster transaction bits as a module when I hit a collection of "oh wait, I can't even call this entire class of things unless I create new module wrappers for both directions" problems. Then I just added a new .c file, new .h, did the right includes, a make clean && make, and my life was 10x better.

Also, this just includes redis-benchmark, redis with SSL/TLS, etc., is still a couple weeks out. I need to get redis-cli > and redis-sentinel speaking SSL/TLS.

You'd still need to know that the number is a base 256 encoded string, and the chances you run across such a number in an innocent context (i.e. math publication) seems infinitesimal.

Someone who knowingly hosts a base-256 encoded secret should be held as accountable as if they had hosted the same information in picture form, morse code form, or plaintext.
I am sure true capitalists also think that people should be able to build multi-family units on their own land if they so desire. Or to sell their land to the highest bidder.

My kids are experiencing Common Core in a SF bay area school.

I think it's an improvement. Anecdotes from parents of older teens talk about a period of teaching where students were encouraged to write about how they feel about something -- now they're encouraged to write evidence based essays.

Some of the common core math books are terrible, but I think the publisher was terrible before common core (I'm looking at you Houghton Mifflin Harcourt). cpm.org seems much better.

When I went through math in high school there wasn't as much emphasis on how you know something ... now kids have to demonstrate that they can explain it.

We won't know for sure how effective these changes were until more of these kids are in the workforce, voting population, politics, etc.
Also, security. If you were a local you might think of beating up the tired guy coming out of the woods with a big heavy box. You'd have to have other people there to provide security at the least.
Tesla Expects to Make Some Money Off Elon Musk's Tunnel Company
Chicken stock contains natural glutamate because chicken itself contains it. It’s what gives chicken stock its savory flavor. Moreover, your body makes its own glutamate, too. So yes, it’s that simple. That’s why they say “no MSG is _added_”. This is similar to how a lot of meat products say “no nitrites are added”, yet use celery juice which is naturally rich in nitrites to prevent meat from turning brown.
I personally like eclipse more than Intellij IDEA. I tried using IDEA for a month and even after getting used to the shortcuts I found eclipse more productive and hence faster. I did not benchmark for my usecase. The most frustrating part of Intellij was a 2 second pause whenever I tried to run unit tests even though I turned auto-compile on. Eclipse feels way more responsive to me for refactoring and running tests.

EDIT: Although I would like to add that I liked Intellij VIM integration more. I have been using Vrapper for Eclipse and it is decent but not many people are contributing to the project for a while which raises doubts on it's sustainability: http://vrapper.sourceforge.net/home/

The problems with over engineering are probably more subtle - you want time and money spent effectively.

Just curious what it is that you do in your day to day life that is so location dependent? I'm someone who enjoys a variety of activities including museums, fine dining, sporting events, kid-friendly activities like zoos, hiking, going to the beach, concerts, exploring interesting towns and cities, fishing, attending interesting lectures, woodworking, playing music, boating, golf . . . I think you get the idea. I've never had any problem doing or enjoying any of these activities during a lifetime spent in the Midwest and South. I can completely understand plenty of reasons why someone wouldn't want to live where I live: job, family, even weather (though I'm surprised how much quality of life people are willing to sacrifice for this one amenity), but "eeww, the rust belt" is a silly and insulting response.
Just because others have done something doesn’t excuse the behavior of the individual.

The model you're talking about here is a little different from what I had in mind. I'm more interested the succession of ideas, motivations, new data, insights etc. that caused him to 1) decide that the problem might be worth looking into in the first place 2) choose various approaches in the course of solving the problem. So any particular 'model' might just be one step in this larger activity.

I'm not trying to raise concerns. And actually, I agree with everything that you said. There is obviously a lot of misinformation and most of people's reactions and stories are factually incorrect and part of a fad. We can say that for sure because we've studied it.

What I'm trying to say is that you shouldn't take that knowledge and then proceed to tell an individual, who you haven't studied, that they are wrong about what is happening to their bodies. People have weird and rare reactions to things all the time. You should have a healthy amount of doubt and realize that maybe you don't have complete knowledge of their bodies. Why is everyone here so certain? Who proved that no person on the planet has any reaction to MSG?
And what impact does THAT have on anything exactly?

I thought of a thing that might have at least a little.

Ask HN: Stripe where users pay for time they spent in the App
Are there any services like Stripe, where users don’t need to buy monthly subscription? Instead they will pay only for time they spent in the App. Payment protocol on “crypto currencies” provides an ability to do that. User will be not overcharged, app’s owner will be sure that he will receive money from user for the time spent.

For better explanation please see, https://blog.request.network/introducing-continuous-payments-a61132332984

I would really appreciate more information from NPR on why the story was retracted and what, specifically, was wrong with the story. NPR's statement mentions that the site that was allegedly defaming Jefferey Ervine was never contacted and that the author of that site was maybe not really the author and they weren't contacted either. In fact, reading through the retraction, I was left with the suspicion that the _only_ person that NPR talked to was Jeffery Ervine himself.

Jeffery Ervine is now the president of Bridgit.com which... Well, even after looking at the site it's not clear to me what they do. It kind of sounds like they work with schools to combat bullying[0] and there's a page on the site covering the same material as the NPR piece.[1] But the NPR piece does end up spending a lot of time on Ervine and the story wraps up with a plug for his new company.[2]

Without more information from NPR, my first thought is that Ervine mis-represented his story in an attempt to drum-up publicity for his new company and NPR was sufficiently embarrassed that they have removed the story from their site. Bu that's just me guessing, since this retraction has practically no useful information.

Fake news, huh?
I think that might be true in some circumstances, but think of it this way:

You have a nice backyard landscaped how you like, you've got beautiful maple trees, a deck. You've lived there and loved it for years. You made it what it is.

Then your neighbors house gets torn down and turned into a 5 story high-rise with no parking. Suddenly your privacy is gone, your serenity is gone, and so is your parking.

It should be easy to understand how this would be frustrating for people.

> The fact that the story can't be repaired does not rebut the ColanR's claim that deleting it is inconsistent with NPR's stated policy

The point is very simple: removal != retraction. Removing without retraction is erasing history. Issuing a retraction is not erasing history.

And obviously, in this context, "erasing history" means the thing it means in standard vernacular English. Not the thing it means in git terminology.

> Furthermore, the best policy would be to retain a complete edit history of the story online... I can't see a reason for not making the edit history public other than reducing embarrassment of NPR.

1. How does showing the edit history reduce embarrassment to NPR?

(e: Ironically, if reducing embarrassment were their goal, they would've found a way to keep the story as in-tact as possible. "Look, we weren't 100% wrong. We just had to change a few paragraphs". IMO a full retraction is far more embarrassing than trying to weasel out of it by keeping as much of the story in-tact as possible.)

2. Some real downsides to this approach are already debated down-thread.

To carry the analogy from above, Exxon moved fast and broke the Prince William Sound. Safety is important obviously but innovation has real costs and software companies seem to learn a lot more and innovate more when they break things vs energy companies-- at least that is the meme.

Agreed, but journalism and journalists are meanwhile being facetiously attacked as "#FakeNews".

My point is that whether a belief is popular, or whether you think a belief is common sensical has no bearing on the truth value, social value, rationality, or perspicacity of that belief.

> Engineers at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory are working with Lockheed Martin, the contractor that built the heat shield, to figure out why the shield cracked. [...] A NASA spokesman says the agency doesn't have an estimate of how much it will cost to replace the Mars mission's heat shield.

Though I know it's often a counterproductive pursuit, I am curious where blame lies here. Did Lockheed build to NASA specs? I assume so, but say that it was determined that a manufacturing misstep that Lockheed made. Does the contract for a piece of equipment like this include indemnification for Lockheed, the opposite (that is must pass the tests to get paid), or is there no explicit accountability? I know sometimes things happen, I'm more curious about the money trail and preventative measures like any postmortem.
Your argument is an example of Whataboutism (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whataboutism)

The thing is, bad questions don't really matter in the grand scheme of things. If a question is bad, and it gets no answers, it will just languish. You don't need to do anything about it. Maybe have an auto-close after a week of inactivity or something. It probably doesn't really matter, as long as you actually sort questions by things like score, answer score, etc, so the bad questions just go down to the ends of all of the lists on pages no one ever browses to. Bits are cheap, a few bad questions being present on the site and not closed doesn't really hurt.

I don't expect every bad question will lead to a valuable mentorship opportunity. I've certainly encountered my fair share of those that weren't worth spending my time on.

Bad answers are more problematic; there's good reason to be vigilent about those.

And of course spam, obvious homework, and just completely incomprehensible questions should be closed instantly.

What I see is questions which are not phrased well but you can actually work out what they're asking being closed. So by the time I've written up an answer, the question is closed, and my answer is wasted. I can copy my answer elsewhere, and vote to re-open, maybe after editing the question to make it more clear, and it might get re-opened, but then I have to spend a lot more time and attention waiting for that. By closing out questions too aggressively, not only are people putting off newcomers, but also wasting the time of those answering questions.
