I'm excited too. Up until now, I've been relying on mfsBSD for this - and it only solves the problem for server-like platforms with nothing but the bare CLI. It's still great for SuperMicro's virtual CD-ROM over IPMI.
When you're making hardware, there's a logical way to structure backer rewards by offering the first units off the factory line. You can give these to your early backers (to incentivize them to sign up) or to people who back later but pay tons of money.

With software, there is no equivalent of "first unit off the factory line". You could artificially create this dynamic by releasing the software in phases to different tiers of backers, but this would probably just anger people because it's entirely artificial. There are also limitations around apps, for example Apple won't let you offer TestFlight beta testing as a reward. And of course, you can't let people buy an iOS app through Kickstarter either.

I had to think creatively about the rewards/tiers for my software kickstarter, which was successfully funded. [1] We let people who paid a little money vote on a certain set of features, and people who paid more money could both submit options and also vote. We also had branded mugs for higher-tier backers as well, which we drop-shipped via Costco (note: only offer this to US-based backers...). I think these voting/nominating tiers would work well for most software, since it's costless to let people vote, and you want to make something that your users want anyway.

I mean, I generally get the gist of what you are saying, but you are saying "no, you're confused, it's not misleading..." It's kind of like saying "no, you don't have hypochondria, it's all in your head!"
Pairing people romantically is so hard to do that dating platforms can count on a long string of revenue from clients.

It's going to take many meetups before I find the woman of my dreams, but chances are pretty good that the first maid I get paired with will meet my needs (worst case, maybe I'll need to try one or two more), after a few successful visits, then I can offer to pay direct and cut out the middleman.

> And in Go, which has a 19-by-19 board and over 10^150 possible positions, even an amateur human can still rout the world’s top-ranked computer programs.

Surprising, in retrospect, how fast that changed.
Absolutely - I didn't mean to indicate that these products were of a high quality, more to disabuse the OP of that perception. Something being the Amazon brand is absolutely no guarantee.

I wonder if we might actually take some insight from white-labeling in how to handle this... how is President's Choice held to account when a can contains contaminated food? Do they get to defer any liability on the original manufacturer or by white labeling have they accepted all the liability where the customer is concerned?
MBS definitely seems pretty brazen. I could totally buy him doing this - effectively social engineering Bezos - over negative stories about Saudi Arabia in the Washington Post. Who better to persuade Bezos to look at a video?

I'm a little surprised Bezos fell for it. Video-triggered vulnerabilities are pretty rare and not something you'd normally be vigilant about, as are world leaders acting as APTs, but he still should've considered the possibility that a giant, powerful nation his ultra-influential newspaper covered might want to target him and would have the capability to do so.

He could've asked an Amazon security analyst to open the video in a sandboxed system, or could've just done so himself. I guess it just never crossed his mind that the (de facto) ruler of Saudi Arabia would phish him.
All previous cases that had been reported to the WHO could be directly traced back to the market. That might be a rather important distinction if the rumours about regional and local governments covering up possible cases are accurate...
This is great to see, I've seen lots of other lists on the web but always happy for more (perhaps this will keep up to date).

I'd suggest adding a publication date column (should be easy to scrape if need be). One thing I'm usually looking at as an ML researcher is recency, not always a good proxy for quality but I'd much rather take a classification model from 2019 than 2014 for example.
unfortunately model conversion isn’t lossless.
CSV is not really a standard, various programs have their own interpretation (even MS Excel allows a header line before the data that contain specifications for the file, such as delimiter, which you probably won't account for in a home-grown solution).

So use a dedicated tool or library or you will run into trouble one day.

For one off jobs, I open it in Excel or similar and save as tab or pipe delimited text. This usually plays much more nicely with command line utilities, assuming it didn't mangle any numbers.

I see lots of complaints about Captchas in the “real” world, too. Not regarding the centralisation etc. aspect but more regarding how painful they are to complete correctly, but there are definitely complaints.

Regarding Cloudflare, a regular user will have no idea about what Cloudflare is and what they do. If something like the OP happens to them, they will just figure “the site is broken” and move on. So there could be a large hidden number of users who have suffered from overzealous Cloudflare blocking without being able to identify it as such.
I'm not sure how it works at ACM, but often, it's people retyping the contents of your article into a JATS-XML template and adding additional metadata (authors, date of publication, perhaps who funded it, etc.), which is then used to generate several outputs (e.g. PDF, HTML, but also citation lists, etc.).
This is a very dangerous idea. It seems logical until you go and try it. The potential market is too small so you pass. Only to see the market blow up into billions of dollars that gets harvested by someone else. Do you think electric cars were that big an idea in July 2003 when Martin Eberhard and Marc Tarpenning started Tesla?

It also doesn't factor when you commit to an idea you become an expert. Often that knowledge forces you to pivot and become successful. Would the founders of Justin.tv ever have founded Twitch if they'd never started?

iCloud backups are definitely encrypted. They just aren't end-to-end encrypted.

That should have been plainly obvious to any technically knowledgeable user because you don't lose your data forever when you forget your Apple ID password. Or the fact that you can see your photos through a web browser on icloud.com

Your lol is misinformed. ACM and IEEE produce and print actual dead-tree journals. This means selecting a fixed number of articles which are consistently formatted by an editorial process. Additionally, [edited to qualify: some but not all] IEEE Associate Editors are paid positions. Arxiv is not doing this.

We can argue/debate about what is the value-add (and precise workflow difference) of the IEEE editorial process vs. arxiv, but there is a difference.

Like the comment you responded to, I'm not defending the precise differential. I'm a past IEEE member (and author, and reviewer) and found their membership fees excessive.

Wow. Well I can imagine that’s expensive.
If using Mobile Firefox (not FF Preview or FF Focus), then greasemonkey is available as add on.
If they're doing that, sure. I'm not sure it's that sophisticated. Last I heard they sourced different engines for different types of things/geographies not necessarily mixing results from multiple sources for a single query. But this is all based on things I've read in passing rather than any serious research/insider knowledge.

For years, I could never understand what was special about vi, in that it was short for "visual". What was particularly visual about it? I also couldn't grasp the idea of "line editors" like ex and ed that came before it... How would that even work? Why one line at a time? Memory?

Then one day I saw the famous picture of Gates and Allen at a teletype terminal for the 100th time, and it suddenly hit me. Oh! It was all printed out!! So as you were writing your program, it was being typed out on paper in front of you. Then you'd read the paper (maybe after a few lines) if you saw some errors, then you would use ed or ex to edit the program by entering the line number the replacement text. You'd do that a few times, then run the program again, or print it all out again to double your fixes. Ex would make that a lot easier than ed by allowing regular expressions, etc.

So vi is a visual on-screen version for a monitor terminal. Duh! Took me years and years to grok this simple concept.
> I suspect IEEE and ACM have much more complicated infrastructure to handle submission, peer review, production, etc.,

To the tune of a hundred million dollars? I can’t even remotely imagine how. If someone asked you to design a system to do all of those above things, would you actually come to the conclusion it’d cost a cool hundred mil yearly to operate?
My employer just banned Firefox. Unless you theoretically have a "business reason" that they accept.

How to you go from SPLC backing down after '"human rights advocates affiliated with the United Nations" praised Nawaz's work.' to Quilliam being UN affiliated, and SPLC not backing down?

I wish there was an easy way to charge customers who are savvy enough to distinguish between ads and organic results different pricing, but until then everyone is subject to the Google tax. Our numbers still show a significant portion of customers come from ad clicks, and we have no choice but to bid on them to stay competitive. I have no problem with companies charging for services, but by decoupling the payment for Google's "free" services from the buyer we're all getting a screwy deal. At least their engineers are paid well though...
How ironic :p
>It's these people who are being referred to when people talk about how the Linux Desktop community itself is the worst part of using the Linux Desktop.

Those people are trying to be helpful by educating people about alternatives since in their assessment it is a suitable replacement. Imagine if everyone whined about windows and also recommended windows. What would that achieve ? It's not like Nadella is lining up to listen to your whining either.
In 2009, I had been depressed for 3 years after I arrived in the United States. I made no friends in that time, and I gained about 70 lbs. High school was rough, then the year before my senior year, I started lifting.
I didn't do competition, but I started working out regularly to improve my physic.
I can say that just being able to see daily progress and feel in control of something made a difference.
I read some self help books, but lifting definitely gave me a boost in my esteem and made me feel that I could make changes in my life and that I wasn't powerless.
Good idea, I'll add a pubdate column now
Academics who push the strong S-W Hypothesis in spite of all the evidence against it are usually doing so for ideological reasons. Basically, the idea is to discredit liberalism by claiming it is based on a rigid idea of reality the SWH is alleged to have shown is wrong.

But these same academics then turn around and argue in favor of a Marxist ideology that is equally based on an absolute metaphysics.

The main reason I actually use Reddit is because there's a community for almost anything. I had a quick browse through the issues/roadmap but; do you have a plan to allow user-created groups or subgroups? For example, ~food is too general for bread-making and so reddit has communities like https://old.reddit.com/r/breadit, which is a great place to ask for baking advice specific to baking bread.
I don't currently have an alternative I use daily, but programming questions seem to me to be the most annoying use case for Google search. I frequently use 4 or 5 keywords to try to find information on a topic, and it gets a cluster of results which ignores one or more of the words that is absolutely essential, because what I want has few if any hits. But things that are everywhere on the internet, I don't need to search for, dammit!

> Amazon is making it far too easy for fraudsters to sell their crap, and (from what I hear) repeatedly: products removed because of counterfeit issues get re-added the next day under some other (or new) product code, or seller ID.

I stumbled upon the latest Amazon scam this past week. I was searching through my Amazon order history to find a wallet I had ordered years ago in the past. Imagine my surprise when my query for "wallet" returned an order with the wallet's name as the title, an image of a 5 pack of Lightning cables as the picture, and a 3 pack of Lightning cables when I actually clicked through.

The reviews [0] were clearly for a bunch of different items: the wallet I had purchased in the past, a laser pointer/clicker for pets, socks, etc. But the current item being sold was a set of generic Lightning cables. It amazes me that Amazon would let sellers so blatantly apply reviews from a bunch of older and wholly unrelated items to a completely new (and also unrelated) item.

What sounds better for PHP?

"PHP is a great programming language because of feature X, principle Y. It's not like old PHP because of 1,2,3..."

or

"PHP is a great programming language because I made a lot of money"
I cannot believe those numbers. I've never known X to use 800KB of RAM.

IIUC it needs to hold at own one screen-sized framebuffer in memory, which is ~5MB on my system.

Practically speaking Xorg right now is using 460MB of virtual memory, 39MB resident, and 22MB shared (and that's _without_ Chromium running, ha).

And i3 is using 56MB virtual, 33MB resident, 32MB shared.

Also, for reference, "sleep infinity" uses 2324K virtual, 704K resident, and 640K shared. You might be able to beat that by working entirely in assembly language and using hair-raising allocation tricks like using the few KB of stackspace kernel gives you as your heap...? I'm not sure.
Part of the reason I’ve stuck with the HHKB for a few years now is that I like its default arrow key layout better than regular arrow keys.

Using your right pinkie to hit function and then having the arrows right there is nice. I also use caps lock as control and it’s nice to have it as a hardware default in the HHKB too.
>It's hard to argue that Greenwald was exposing some sort of manipulation by the judicial system.

It's not hard to argue at all - it's exactly what he did.

The leaked texts make it clear that the prosecutor's office and the judge (Moro) had clear political motivations for taking down the front-running candidate in the last election and that they abused their powers to do so.
It's really sad to see that Chinese scientist and health workers are somehow 'sacrificed' due to some covering up of some regional and local official. When people refer to China I think it's more like the local officials who have done all the cover-up not only to 'save face' but more like to save their position. Yeah but I agree that a distinction between groups of Chinese people has to be clarified and referred to more precisely.

I can see the motivation for APL in these slow terminals. It's surprising how long it took for screen-based terminals to appear, not until the early 80's, more than a decade after the first teletype ones.
I pretty much only buy second-hand now and it's got nothing to do with not being able to buy new. But for the price of some fast-fashion plastic crap you can get something made with actual quality fabric, by Europeans who get fair wages.

As far as I'm aware the country with the biggest second-hand culture in clothing is Japan, and they're not nearly living in poverty.
Well this is Google you're up against. We techies complain every now and then about Google's practices, we hate it and end up moving on and we find ourselves using them again and again.

They already ruined the web with Facebook by riddling their search results with ads, being part of the ICAAN and having their own TLD, and then introducing AMP. In this case for this ad search result problem, uBlock Origin wipes these ad-links anyway. No need for these other funky hacks suggested in the Twitter thread.

It's also funny to see some Twitter users in the thread who have a website only for me to see on uBlock Origin which reports usages of 'Google Analytics'. Looks like we will all go back to spreading Googleware once again.
Yup it is not a cheap area of microscopy - commercial SPIM systems typically range from $250K to around $1 million (though there are some significantly cheaper than this) and you can build them for significantly less.

I think the hope with both OpenSPIM and mesoSPIM initiatives is by getting design information out and plans out as open source, the community has a reference system they can experiment with and find mechanisms that work to help bring the price of the systems down. Typically, most expensive parts are things like cameras and detection objectives. If you can scrounge parts, find alternative units (cheaper cameras etc.) you can find means to significantly reduce cost. Similarly, if you are trying to push the boundaries - you can see where you can gain potential advantage by substituting sub-systems for greater resolution units etc.

My hope is that through community initiatives like OpenSPIM and MesoSPIM, the community can reduce costs of these systems by an order of magnitude over the coming years, while at the same time, using similar reference systems other leading teams can push the boundaries and highlight what is possible.

I strongly disagree, social graphs are contextual and it makes sense to have different graphs for different social networks. When I friend someone on Facebook I am not agreeing to share some other info with them that I produce on a totally different site. And finding friends is not the hard part of using a new site. The network effect comes from people actually using the site, not from finding your friends, so this wouldn't make social networks more competitive.
This comment breaks quite a whole lot of the site guidelines. Please don't post in the flamewar style to HN.

So, anyone want to hazard a guess on why the prince would want the optics of being seen to have been responsible for the hack (as opposed to trying to cover that up by, say, not using his very own account)?
In order to change policy (in the US for instance), you'll need the cooperation of politicians. What candidate running for president right now is truly prepared to challenge the status quo? Those of us who have been around for more than a few elections know the answer to this question all too well; hence the low voter turnout.

We need to shift more in the direction of a direct democracy, using the blockchain perhaps as a next generation digital ballot box. Not holding my breath though that this will happen within the lifetime of any one reading hacker news right now. There's just too much at stake for our corporate overlords.
No, it wasn't rhetorical. I think the answer may just be 'yes'. Wonder if we'll look at historical figures with different eyes if most are likely to be PTSD victims. And we could see what the effects were on societies living like that.

I find the cognitive load of having to memorize multiple functional layers outweighs any perceived benefit.

I type pretty fast (100 wpm or so), but when programming typing speed is rarely the bottleneck. I suspect people just rationalize fashion to themselves by pretending it’s also better, but everyone is different so maybe some people actually prefer the complexity.

Even if the EMH were true, it only says "_IF_ a market is efficient, THEN all <modifier depending on the EMH version> information is included in the price."

The EMH does not imply that any particular market is efficient, and if the market isn't efficient, the EMH doesn't apply.

Lots of people do appear to assume the axiom "All markets are efficient", but that is plainly incorrect.
