I've always thought 4chan was beautifully designed. Its hyperfunctional in a way that wired.com designers will never know because they are too busy injecting ads into every inch of available space.
SportsMe | IOS Engineer, Backend Engineer, Mobile Designer | Boston,MA | Onsite | https://getsportsme.com

SportsMe, the fan conversation platform. We are a sports focused media platform that allows fans to be the experts on their favorite teams, players and general knowledge of the game. Our first product has been the SportsMe IOS app(https://itunes.apple.com/app/id1291610886) that allows you to take on your friends, fellow fans, and rivals in 30 second video debates on trending sports topics. We are tired of listening to the same talking heads of sports and their network directed opinions, we are changing the way fans obtain their sports news and opinions with a platform truly driven by the people with the best voice, the fans.

The stack is fully deployed on AWS Lambda, RDS, and using GraphQL. We run the backend on Node.js. We use a combination of Swift, Firebase, and Apollo-GraphQL to power the IOS app.

Surely it's more that you should obtain certified binaries of openssl from a third party?
Doesn't seem to be a problem on the iPhone. But then I usually search on "cats" and it gives me the option of "adult cats" or "kittens".

But it certainly works on large libraries because it shows me recent photos mixed with cats that died years ago.
Yes it does mean £25, but rarely used any more however the alternative is

Meaning:
Rubbish; nonsense, or 'of poor quality'. Often shortened just to 'pony'.

What's the origin of the phrase 'Pony and trap'?
This is Cockney rhyming slang - pony and trap -> crap.
>”Would we be fine with the military killing the exact same people if the pilot was simply on the aircraft that launched the missiles or bombs?”

No, that wouldn’t matter obviously. Drones are only relevant because that’s what they are using: if it were helecopters and google were being asked to make computer-vision enhanced helecopter dashboards to make the program more efficient and more lethal people would have similar concerns.

This program in particular is troublesome because they have decided since it is out of self defense[0] it can be done outside of a congressionally declared war without public oversight[1] and to even target American citizens if the executive branch alone secretly determines they are linked to Al-Qaeda or another terrorist organization[2]. It has also been documented hitting first responders to ensure a target is not rescued [3] which would be called a war crime if anyone else did it.

Project Maven expands this new (in my view, extralegal) kind of warfare by making it more lethal and more automated. It scales this program up in a way that, say, making bullet proof vests for soilders or even tanks does not, because those are used in old fashioned congresssionally declared wars.

...then get lucky.

Reality: there are millions of people out there doing exactly the things listed. And they are not rich.

BTW, does anyone really think Oprah, Trump, Kanye, and Elon are "accountable?"

And then:

"Don't partner with cynics and pessimists. Their beliefs are self-fulfilling."

I see this a lot in these sorts of "pro tips", and it always makes me check to see if my pocket is being picked. Somebody needs to point out the holes in your grand scheme. But then, I'm a bitter, albeit moderately wealthy, cynic.
wow, this is an example of some horrible, horrible journalism.

I could tell after first two paragraphs, that the author did not spend more than 15 minutes on the site itself and most of her "facts" come from lazily googled trivia.

I spent more time, than I'd like to admit on this and similiar imageboards. I still visit it semi-regulary (only fitness board nowadays), but this description as place where only edgy teenagers go to bully other people is plain wrong and misdirecting. Will you be judging Reddit next, solely by /r/politics, or /r/The_Donald, which both are terrible communities? Because that's what you did, with mentioning only /b/ and /pol/ as the core of 4chan.

My advice for the author: LURK MOAR :)
Chaos Monkeys by Antonio García Martínez is a good read. Good reminder that tech is not all sunshine and roses and that a lot of cloak and dagger goes behind the scenes in the valley.
> Tokyo says the number of crows it has counted in large parks rose to 36,400 in 2001 from 7,000 in the late 1980s, prompting a trapping plan that cut the numbers to 18,200 last year. However, ornithologists say that the actual number in Tokyo is closer to 150,000 birds, and that some crows may have moved to different areas to avoid the traps.
“I am a democrat [proponent of democracy] because I believe in the Fall of Man.

I think most people are democrats for the opposite reason. A great deal of democratic enthusiasm descends from the ideas of people like Rousseau, who believed in democracy because they thought mankind so wise and good that every one deserved a share in the government.

The danger of defending democracy on those grounds is that they’re not true. . . . I find that they’re not true without looking further than myself. I don’t deserve a share in governing a hen-roost. Much less a nation. . . .

The real reason for democracy is just the reverse. Mankind is so fallen that no man can be trusted with unchecked power over his fellows. Aristotle said that some people were only fit to be slaves. I do not contradict him. But I reject slavery because I see no men fit to be masters.”

― C.S. Lewis
I don't see the juxtaposition of watching TV all night and having an expensive hobby. There is a middle ground: having an inexpensive hobby.
It depends on how your router's DHCP server is configured. If you configure your router to pass its own IP address out as the DNS server for the local subnet then the router's behavior dictates how DNS works. If your router is passing out an external DNS in the DHCP configuration, then you'll get OS-dependent behavior.

My router uses a DNS resolver internally, and it will spread-cast to multiple DNS servers and use the quickest response it can get. It also caches using the TTL in the DNS response, and so it will serve up cached records transparently.
Not when you're so worried about how you'll be perceived that you soften your statements beyond comprehension. And yes, this absolutely happens, and no, you probably don't realize if you're doing it.

Try re-reading a peer performance review you've written after the fact. It can be eye-opening.
There is an excellent book about that:

In the Republic of Ireland we use single transferable vote with proportional representation (which I think is a really good voting system, although a bit complex to understand the operation of).

UK is still first past the post for MPs. Australia seems to be different again but not first past the post.

Paying representatives is totally worth it. Are you saying that we shouldn't pay even the current number of representatives, or benefit of representatives sharply decline as their numbers increase?

Are proportional systems "hyperpartisan"?

Biasing towards supposed "moderation" marginalizes a broad range of the citizenry outside the mainstream and breeds cynicism and fury. Even if they cannot command a policy-enacting majority, minority opinions deserve a voice.

People should be allowed to vote for representatives who actually represent them!

Yeah here in Australia, the neighbourhood magpie is the meanest bird you'd ever seen. But we have been feeding it for years, and it hasn't bombed us in a long time... except sometimes it swoops over my shoulder hitting my head with its wing tip. I'm still on alert during bombing season.

Also it still bombs my mum, it hates Asians.
That doesn't mean it's suddenly in scope for a browser. The solution would be for the OS to support it, not for the browser to do an end-run around the OS's DNS settings.

I think you have a very poor understanding of education culture and attitudes towards science in the US.
The fact of the matter is that, in countries where the state gives you a lot, they generally take a lot as well. The money needs to come from somewhere.

Most decent entrepreneurs manage to sustain themselves and find a way to build out something regardless of whether the state is handing out money. If I manage to get a win, I want to keep most of my winnings.

I'm European but wouldn't want to live in a country with high income taxes, high capital gains taxes, various hidden levies (luxury cars costing hundreds of thousands, gas being super expensive), high corporate and dividend taxes, and to top it off a nice annual wealth tax. Why even bother trying to achieve more than your fellow citizen in that kind of setting?
I don't have a good answer but I believe that it certainly cannot be everybody.

Perhaps people who are accomplished scholars in political theory and economics and a few other relevant areas?
Cool, now let me start an ephemeral v3 onion service from JS and have it reachable via WebRTC by a peer who has their own. It's the perfect tech marriage, removes signalling servers and NAT busters, but may be a bit taxing on directory servers and too slow to use for media streams (but I'll take data channels only).
I do not think so, in this case, if we didn’t become hegemonic someone else would. Look at the Middle East and all the jockeying around within. Same for East Asia. The question is given someone will be stronger and exert power, who in a game theory framework would exercise their dominion with the least negative consequences. I’m confident most people would agree that the world is better off not having succumbed to Comintern communism.

But regardless, what were the plausible alternative realities that you think were viable options given what we know?
But that's exactly what's missing from all this discussion of voting systems, if the US and UK are your examples of "failed" democracies these experts obviously haven't considered the full range of how voting works. Living in a city that has instant run off voting it is clear that first past the post has some important advantages that voting system gurus seem to discount--namely it forces pre-negotiation and coalitions before questions are put to the voters. It is impossible for a voting system to inquire what the will of the body politic is on all questions as all times like it is an oracle--but if you construct a system that poses choose A or B question and there's education (campaigning) around that choice, the electorate can make a reasonably informed decision about whether A or B is better. Viewing voters as a static oracle to be consulted misses the whole point which is to actually get the electorate to make a decision since all things are not possible and government inevitably picks policies that favor some interests over others. In fact, suppression of heterodox policy party ideas in policy making (while protecting their expression through a strong 1st amendment) seems like one of the greatest features (not a bug) of US democracy.
By the way. I have recently thought about the elections in Russia and came to the conclusion the whole presidential system is flawed: a classic president has too much power and a single person elections are too easy to manipulate.

Every time there are presidential elections in Russia everybody knows the outcome in advance, absolutely no viable competition takes place ever. But despite the corrupt system some states/counties/cities in Russia manage to elect reasonable candidates that are in opposition to the president occasionally when it's about parliamentary elections, especially about local parliaments.

This makes me conclude the parliamentary republic system is better than the presidential system.

Ray Dalio AMA
why aspire to "have way more money than you need"? cause that's what this "how to get rich" bullshit is about.

set your focus on what you love to do, not on acquiring more than you need. that probably won't make you happy anyway.

if you chose to work in IT because you enjoy it, you're already super fucking lucky anyway. you're sought after and money's good (generally speaking).

if you feel like you need more, do the actual work to make it happen. don't listen to generic one-liners by some pretentious investment guru.

> Can your family live with one car

It's really funny to read that. It's probably very american to think 2 cars per family is the norm. I think if I group the 10 adults I see the most on average, we own 2 cars together. And we are all between 30 and 55.
You can use any SOUP you want, the rule is that it is up to you, medical device seller, to write the requirements (performance or other) you want from it, and verify them. Additionally, you need to assess any risk added by the inclusion of the SOUP and mitigate them. (The effort depends on whether you include it into a Class A/B/C sw unit). You are ultimately responsible for any bug in the SOUP. And this is rather orthogonal to license of the sw.

Since this is a daunting task to verify something like QT, now you can at least pay for the certified version, and point some of your risk mitigations directly to the QT specifications/FMEA/Test results.

The usual strategies to avoid having to validate a huge external SW is to either have HW redundancies, or to segregate it completely from your main SW so that any failure of your SOUP is harmless.

I read The Omnivores Dilemma and share your believe that this kind of farming seems fine. I don't know whether this would work for feeding the entire planet. Right now, farms like this are an exception anyway.

In my experience, only consuming animal products from these farms is a bigger hassle than finding vegan food.
Oh yes didn't even think to check that! Bizarre that there's no official report about what's going on.
