I was in Budapest recently and had a very good experience with the host, but was already a bit perplexed that i was in contact with 3 different people over the course of the stay. In the end i realised that the host owns 25 properties in the city centre and probably has a dozen assistants to take care of stuff. It's a full blown tourism business and a problem for the local community at that point.
The reason is that scp was designed as a secure replacement for rcp, which was designed as a remote version of cp. The flags -p and -r were inherited from cp by rcp (see https://linux.die.net/man/1/rcp), so for compatibility scp had to use the same flags.

As for ssh, I haven't looked at its history, but I suspect it's older than scp; the intuitive flag for "port" is -p, so that's what ssh used.
These very regularly change.
Based on the article it seems like the messages were recovered from the local copy stored in the device. Arguably (at least, this is my understanding of OWS's stance on the issue) Signal only really claims to protect in-transit communications. Once the message reaches the recipient, it is up to that individual to secure the local copies of the messages. Signal does have an option to encrypt the local copies, but FDE is the ideal for that

However, the Irish of the 1800s lived off potatoes and cows butter SOLELY. Of course, they were extremely skinny because they had to stretch a 3 month harvest across 12 months. But they were not malnourished. There were irishmen living into their 100s at this time.

Of course there was a famous potato blight that killed the crop and starved most everyone to death. But I'm talking about nutrition, not epidemiology

You can do a lot with a phone and there's no social stigma associated with walking around with a smartphone. It's an open question for me whether Glassholes 2.0 become a thing even once the tech is there. (Certainly there's a role in niches like doing repairs where information can be overlaid but I'm not convinced it will become a thing when just walking around.)
Fortunately or unfortunately, "encouraged shady behavior" does not directly equate to "illegal". For example, if you encourage someone to steal a car tomorrow you're not doing anything illegal until they actually do it, they tell you they did it, and you fail to report it (accessory at that point). The actual crime part is on them.

It's massively unethical and it feels like people should be in jail, but proving actual crime took place during the lead-up to the recession would be a massive undertaking with little satisfaction as payout, and just as many run-of-the-mill home buyers going to jail as lender associates or executives.

The Law and Finance of Initial Coin Offerings
When someone says "left libertarian" they are usually referring to anarcho-socialism (they are not friendly to capitalism).

Obviously people could use this term and mean something else, but the thought leaders in that space believe that the state of nature and man is not capitalism, but it's socialism, and that capitalism is only able to exist because governments create the conditions necessary for it. Thus the "libertarian" or elimination of government would bring about socialism. That's quite a contrast to that most libertarians and anarcho-capitalists believe.

Sounds very big for 500 small (IE not 10/20 mega pixel) jpegs?

Even at a generous 500k that should be just ~250 mb of that, unless you have on average four or more "versions" of each image? But I'm assuming the 1080p jpegs are "prints" and so doesn't change much?

I am always impressed by the UNIX tools because of their simplicity and yet how easily you can build powerful systems due to their composability.

Of course on a board owned by Ycombinator this is not the most common opinion, but VCs are not the only way to a successful company. Loans, public funding (national and international), crowdfunding, are all options. You can also produce on demand and have a slightly higher price.

For things like malaria treatments, there are tons of international funds, public and private. I mean, one of the biggest, the Gates foundation, has plenty of funds for this kind of programs.

Also, a lot of people overestimate the cost of outsourcing manufacturing. A few plane tickets and a few weeks of hostel in Shenzhen with the good people will put you on track to manufacture many devices and probably enough for the 1.0 version that you will sell in a volume of mere thousands.

bc = Belinda's Calculator. Apparently named after Belinda Cherry. [1]; i don't know who that is, but i assume she needed to do arithmetic on a unix machine a long time ago.

There's an older unix calculator called dc, for desk calculator; dc uses reverse-Polish, so it's a pain to use if you didn't grow up using those weird old HP calculators (or writing Forth). My understanding is that bc began as a shell script which would translate infix expressions into RPN and pass them to dc.

These days, if i want to do sums, i fire up a Python interpreter, or just plug them into a Google search box or Firefox address bar. But back in the day, i would use bc.

You have never had carte blanche to do whatever you want with your property in the US. You cannot run a nail salon out of your residentially zoned house, either.

A tutorial I had written for IBM developerWorks, titled "Developing a Linux command-line utility" (in C), is mentioned in the Resources section of that page ([0]) above.

But that article was archived from the IBM dW site some time ago, after being there for some years. However, I wrote to IBM and got the PDF of the article, and put it on my Bitbucket account, with the C code for the utility.

This post on my blog describes the article:

https://jugad2.blogspot.com/2014/09/my-ibm-developerworks-ar...

And here is the Bitbucket project for selpg, the utility used as a case study, with the C code and the article text (as PDF):

https://bitbucket.org/vasudevram/selpg

The article and all the source files are here:

https://bitbucket.org/vasudevram/selpg/src

It may be of use to people who want to progress beyond using Unix / Linux command-line utilities (in C, but the principles and techniques can be adapted to other languages like Python, Ruby, etc.), to writing such utilities themselves, along with integrating them into shell scripts and pipelines.

Since Another World wasn't listed on that wikipedia page, I searched and found this interview with Rebecca Heineman who ported the game to SNES: http://www.grokcode.com/106/interview-rebecca-heineman/

"Since Interplay wouldn’t pay for a SuperFX chip, I found a way to do it with static RAM on the cart and DMA which got me a great frame rate. Interplay wouldn’t pay for the static RAM either, so I ended up using Fast ROM and a MVN instruction. Interplay wouldn’t pay for a 3.6 Mhz ROM either. So, frustrated, I shoved my block move code into the DMA registers and use it as RAM running at 3.6 Mhz. It worked. I got fast block moves on slow cartridges and made a game using polygons working on a 65816 with pure software rendering."
Well, any time I need something from a gov and it isn't in the language it wants to see, it just closes shop on me. Even if the language is english and everybody understands it, except the official, who is "just following the law". So we have to go to an official translator, pay through the nose to get something trivial done. Or forget it.

Is the court suggesting, with this verdict, the cops do the same? Seems like a reversal of the usual gov policy to me.

Furthermore, in this situation non-verbal communications take over and should be considered. If the defendant knew the law he would have signalled "no" (while saying "no"), or positioned himself as to block access (if possible).
That’s why I said real terms. Grad PLUS loans are at 7%. CPI is at 2.8%.
Zoning requirements and permits for operating hotels are not unreasonable.

Some people rent out a spare room now and again for extra cash, and some people have multiple properties that are occupied exclusively by Airbnb renters, essentially running an unlicensed hotel.

The latter can be extremely obnoxious if its your upstairs neighbor, not to mention the effects that being discovered by Airbnb real estate investors can have on a town or neighborhood.
In Japan, AirBnB claims they were led to believe that previously booked stays were going to be okay while the hosts worked to get licensed for future stays. Maybe they are outright lying, but I'll give them the benefit of the doubt until proven otherwise.
Reminds me of a time when G.K. Chesterton saw a banner that asked, "Should store clerks be allowed to marry?" To which he retorted, "Should store clerks be allowed to be store clerks?" We do tend to forget the proper order of things at times.
As an engineer, I'd translate this as "the signal-to-noise ratio for a finger stick test is much too low for accurate results."
If we get rid of zoning and residence/hotel distinctions how will we know who to tax without introducing oppressive measures like voter ID?

I think the standard is, once again, bonkers about this. In practice float is 32 bit and double is 64 bit and both adhere to the IEEE754 standard.

The standard should just mandate that floating point numbers be IEEE754 compliant because that is the de-facto standard anyway.

The CERN is running a Kaggle competition, TrackML, that is a key factor for the success of the HL-LHC project. They already know that the current solution for reconstructing particle trajectories from raw sensor data, based on Kalman filtering, will suffer from combinatorial overcharge if the number of collision events goes up 10x. Even if they extrapolate computing power going up in the next years.

Thus their approach of looking for a better track reconstruction solution, based on ML.

This is not just a science popularization contest, it's vital for making the HL-LHC succeed. Without it, the accelerator, the new sensors and data infrastructure will collect the raw data, but the physicians won't be able to process it, so they won't get any new insights.

Fucking unbelievable my centrifuges were sabotaged when they were on my property. Now the government thinks it can put me in a cage just because I transported some atoms around without their permission.
I'm curious why a superhost renting a bunch of properties is "sketchy" while a corporate hotel brand with many properties is to be trusted. What if the hosts registered LLCs and listed their friendly sounding corporation names instead?

What was sketchy was when I used to have to rent apartments in cities off Craigslist with absolutely no regulation, no escrow, and no reputation to avoid people who literally just finished ripping someone off. This is where many cities seem to want to return.

Since many people prefer to stay in apartments / houses while they travel, some of the hotels will not be needed and can be converted into additional housing. It makes sense that there would be entrepreneurs who learn to make these places attractive to travelers while maintaining low costs to clean and maintain the property. In fact, these places are often better run than a property that is only rented out a few times a year.

If I were the cities, I would focus on regulating the things that really impact quality of life (e.g. having firm penalties for frequent noise violations) without trying to micromanage how people use hotels versus apartments. People will always rent apartments, do house swaps, couchsurf, etc. and its often a win-win for everyone involved. Punish the bad actors, leave people alone who rent a lot of places out but don't trigger complaints, and avoid pushing the movement underground where you can't tax it or try to help with noise violations and other problems.

>Not being able or willing to put in the effort to learn

This has nothing to do with putting in effort. Across a population, people who grew up speaking a dialect will perform better on a test than people who learned to speak that dialect later.

This isn't a controversial statement.

If your goal is to ensure that speakers of other dialects have equal access to top tier higher education, you will need to account for that somehow.

If you dont care about equal access to speakers of other dialects, then you don't have to do anything.
