I just recently finished all of the books.

The third and fourth books are the weakest by far and are actually done much better by the TV series than the books.

The TV series version of Ashford is an actual deep character and not just a 2d caricature. Equally, all of the schoolgirl romance stuff in Cibola Burn is removed.

The rest of the books are pretty decent though I thought, so if you stopped at Cibola Burn I'd recommend Nemesis Games and the rest.
A bit like http://vanilla-js.com the Javascript framework of 0 bytes (25 bytes compressed), but that antivirus would have the upside of having exactly 0 added risk, which distinguishes it from the rest of its industry.

It would be interesting to find out the degree to which inbreeding went down in modern days. The downside of modern life is that traditional families are being torn apart but this might be an evolutionary advantage since it means that the gene pool gets a lot more mixed since I imagine inbreeding is probably much lower in cities due to much broader selection pool.
You enforce it on the main providers. For Android, force Google to supply the backdoor (In Google Play Services), for Matrix force the hosted Element.io instance to provide it.

Even if the project is open source and development is distributed, there is often a major entity behind it driving it on which the requirements can be enforced.
That depends on your career goals and your attitude towards the concept of "buffer time", though.
Couldn't you validate the data on upload or if it's such a common problem just auto-fix it by left padding w/ zeros?
> So I guess she liked the life with the cat where it was just randomly mean or not interested in her sometimes.

If you think your cat is randomly mean to you, then you really don't understand your cat, you don't correctly read the clues it signalizes to you.

If I'm e.g. petting my cat and don't stop if she starts wagging her tail, which pretty much means she's overexcited, then she will scratch me to make it more clear to me.

To expect that your cat is all the time interested in you also seems honestly quite a bit narcissistic.
No :-) The comment was about reshaping/expanding RAID. Since all 4 HDD bays are already taken, I usually connect an external HDD through USB for the reshaping.
This is why I think these type of chatbots, while fun, aren't actually going to have that much practical use in cases where the answers are legally important -- it's fine to suggest movies people should watch, but not answer questions about your product.

It's not that different, only that China was acting in response to the status quo of US companies dominating this global market. For most users outside of the US those companies are the default; China excepted.

By 'default' I don't mean to imply that this is desirable or healthy though.
Yeah, "smart" is just a marketing buzzword.

It's not an intrinsic property of technology, either. It's just businesses that want to take advantage of you in new and more abusive ways. Don't let them.
these are all just battles though and all that losing these battles does is pass more and more power to the technical class.

I know where I'm watched and how not to be watched, I know how to very easily hide the odd activity. The average citizen no longer gets that for free and it really sucks for them but remember that's what this has always been about, trying to improve the lot of the average, not us. We're fine because we know and can do.

So its elliptic curve time for messengers but everyone that "knows" will get some European or underground US piece of software on their phone via an unofficial app store.
If a fair fight is one where everybody plays by the same rules, then America fights as fair as you can get.

The main issue with something like this though isn’t really about the rest of the world catching up to the US technologically. It’s a question of whether service providers would choose not operating in the US over following their rules. But given the size of the US market, you’d find a lot of service providers choosing to follow the rules.

Which is incidentally the same way EU nations enforce their laws on companies like Google. And how countries like France, Germany and UK would enforce the anti-encryption laws they’ve been trying for years to get on the books.
You didn't even try.

You are looking at two different verses. NIV have basically the same text for Genesis 2:21:

I'm not very up to date on the history of WeChat, was it launched as a reaction to US services or did it just grow organically?
the same with 2D movies. Anime taught me to always look in backgrounds, a habit which makes it clear that live action frequently uses focus to force attention.
> With end to end encryption, however you can show up with a warrant all you want it makes no difference because they physically cannot hand you clear-text communications.

Well, no. That's the issue!

They shouldn't be executing search warrant behind your back to some their party that happens to be stirring your data. They should execute the search warrant on the person who owns the data they're investigating. If they refuse to give up the data they're breaking the law.

> Same for encryption at rest. The strength of the encryption algorithms we have today makes it near impossible to recover the clear-text data.

Same for encryption at rest. We already have laws for that. Get a search warrant. If they refuse to give the data you have a warrant for they broke the law. For example, if you have something in a safe the cops won't just come into your house and crack your safe. They'll get a warrant first then in theory you'll open it for them or they'll have to crack it if you break the law and don't open it.

DRIVER_VAPING would be dangerous for Tesla because it has a chance to obscure their camera's view of the driver, meaning they can't accurately blame known autopilot faults on driver inattention.
Deduplicating compressed data is difficult if you want to be able to reconstruct the original. Zip for example has many ways to compress the data, so it's difficult it decompress a zip and keep the information necessary to reconstruct the exact same compressed file.

I'm aware of one tool for zip:

https://pypi.org/project/deterministic-zip/

of course that only helps if it's used to create the original zip.

Is there a list of "reversible" formats somewhere? Are there other ways to deal with this?
> Get a terrier. Best of both worlds. You have to earn their love, and they're as prickly as cats sometimes.

Yes, might be really the case. I'm pretty much a cat person and when I'm thinking about getting a dog, then terriers are pretty much on top of the list.

Q: Can Itemsy be used to keep a backup of my photos?

A: Sure! You can use it to save any link you want.

Q: When I make a backup of my photos using Itemsy, how are they stored?

A: They are stored in the cloud.

Q: Which cloud?

A: I'm sorry, I did not understand that. Could you say that again?
It's difficult to read every single letter. It's difficult to eavesdrop on every single copper wire. It's easy to store every bit of internet communication. Almost nobody here has a problem with warranted access, but this isn't about warranted access, this is about blanket recording of every user's interaction for no good reason.
It only takes one single person to migrate and have surviving descendants for everyone to end up their descendant. So yes it's possible that people migrate and not have descendants, but that has to be true for every single one of them.

In reality even over very long geographic distances we have evidence of hundreds or even thousands of people migrating. Marco Polo first visited China with his uncles who had been there before. He recoded that there were so many European traders in Beijing that the Italians, Spanish, etc each had their own districts. Even before that Rabban bar Sauma was an Armenian Christian monk born in the Armenian district of Beijing in about 1220, who travelled to Europe. He appears in the court records at the Vatican and in England.

As for sub-Saharan Africa, Middle Eastern traders have been plying the seas of eastern Africa, and running caravans through central Africa for thousands of years. Their cultural and genetic fingerprint is all over Africa. There is a small, but persistent and measurable level of sub-Saharan African genetic markers in southern Europe dating to the Roman era.
> I had always assumed that clearly recognizable traits that children inherit from parents are simply based on the large influence of certain small pieces of DNA

I never understood this position from the logical point of view.

Say that you were put in front of two pictures that are entirely covered except for a small visible part each. The two visible parts of the pictures are different. Would you ever assume the parts that you can't see to be identical, or would you assume they differ from each other as much as the visible parts do?
The problem with everything that 'saves time' is that it doesn't save time in way a that actually frees up blocks of time, because most things in your day are running to someone else's schedule. Saving 10 minutes here and 20 minutes there only adds up to give you hours to do what you want if you're not waiting for some event to let you begin the next task. If you are waiting for something then saving 10 minutes just gives you 10 minutes more dead space in your day to spend waiting. If I have two meetings and I can manage to get the first one done early the only impact that will have is that I'll have to wait longer until the second one. I guess that's a little more time to spend writing nonsense on HN, but it doesn't feel useful to have saved that time.

Saving time on tasks to give yourself more time to do other things only works if you have complete autonomy over your schedule.
Because criminals will follow the encryption laws? If they're not going to comply with a search warrant why would they stop using encryption? The logic makes no sense. The only people this law will affect are law abiding citizens.

I'm not willing to give up my privacy just because other people are committing crime and the cops can't figure how to do their job. I'm in the US and the 4th amendment says I don't have to.

Thanks for the heads up. I'm using Postmark for transactional email. I think this is probably something at their end. I'll open a ticket with them.
What a godawful piece of shit company. For freelancers of many kinds, it's also one of the only available methods of payment out there, especially for those doing low to mid-pay copywriting work, graphic design and so forth. The fees and somewhat hidden currency conversion fees add up to a serious chunk of any payment, and way in excess of anything justified by what Paypal does to facilitate those transactions. It's in effect simply extorting these funds from people who often are those that can least afford to see margins shaved off their pay. Despicable.

the world of cryptocurrencies may be loaded with fraudulent activity and gets hated on extensively by many well-paid programmer types here at HN, but in facilitating payments for low paid freelance work, it's amazing for the cheapness of transactions and the speed with which one can get their money in their hands. (whenever you find someone who actually knows how to or is willing to pay in this way for work done internationally in ways that don't allow for in-country instant payment transfers like the E-Transfer mentioned below in another comment for Canada).
2020, still a nightmare to make 2 computers both connected to the internet talk to each other.

Python's print statement was surface-level beautiful, with subsurface flaws:

1) it modified the file object's "softspace"

>>> class MyFile(object):
... softspace = "Hello"
... def write(self, s):
... pass
...
>>> f = MyFile()
>>> f.softspace
'Hello'
>>> print >>f, "spam"
>>> f.softspace
0

2) This wasn't a problem until >> was added, because of problem #2 - the print statement didn't originally let you print to anything other than stdout. Which meant that if you wanted to support writing to a file instead of a stdout then you had to re-implement print yourself.

In practice, I've also found that having print as a function adds functionality because I can do things like:

print(*data_values, sep="\n")

which is a quick way to print each value in a list on its own line.
We occasionally use C++, but instead of the holistic approaches that tend to be discussed with everything in language X, we just write a native library that is then safely used from Java/.NET.

Basically what everyone usually advocates as "Python" in performance critical stuff, but we get the the productivity and JIT/AOT tooling from Java/.NET eco-system as well.
What are those shackles you think that are preventing it?
To assert that being skeptical towards economists bias amounts to the same thing as being an anti-vaxxer is just another level of free market fundamentalism. So your honest opinion is that every socialist alive is at the level of an anti-vaxxer, who wrongfully rejects the objective science of (free market) economics?

> And no, the resources are not available. If all wealth had been evenly divided in 1960, everyone would live on $451 a year, meaning everyone would be in extreme poverty.

Why on earth would you think that I mean something as stupid as just splitting everything by capita? The point would be to help people without requiring cheap labour or natural resources in return, or at least at much better conditions and without the profit motive incentivizing to milk it as long as possible.

> I shouldn't have to spoonfeed this to you. Your treatment of what I'm presenting is being done in bad faith.

Seriously? My assertion was that if China is taken away, the amount of people lifted out of poverty looks very different, since then you've been totally unable to figure out what I mean by "the amount of people per country" and just keep listing countries which has nothing to do with how many people each of those actually amounts to. (As a side note, those countries are most likely using the same flawed $1.90 number to measure their decline).

> It's not that we have to only accept this method. It's that it's the method that Economic scholarship has found works best.

This is not true, US foreign policy being the most obvious example. Countries have been coerced into it and isolated and/or invaded if refused.

Here is my conversation. In the middle it was really impressing me - could have been a human. Then totally dropped the ball.

- Hey I'm here to answer your questions about Itemsy

- Who are the founders of itemsy and how did they meet and have this idea?

- I'm not sure what you mean. But I'm happy to tell you more about Itemsy.

- Is itemsy a profitable company?

- Yes, we are profitable.

- Does itemsy hold any patents?

- No, we don't.

- Is Itemsy going to be bought by Google?

- No, we are not going to be bought by Google.

- How do you know? It could happen.

- We don't know. But we are not going to be bought by Google.

- Do you hate Google?

- No, we don't hate Google.

- So if Google offered to buy itemsy for a good price, would itemsy say no?

- We don't know. But we are not going to be bought by Google.

- Okay thank you

- I'm not sure what you mean. Could you say that again?

It tells you something when FBI and NSA spied on a presidential campaign, the guy they spied on _won_, and absolutely nobody was charged with anything, let alone convicted. This is some Watergate++ grade shit, and there are no repercussions at all. Imagine what they could do to you and I.
I don't think this whole conversation needs to be so dramatic.

I live in NYC and do projects like this chair all the time. I talk to my neighbors and ask them when they wont be home or when would be a good time to do X hours of work.

Most of the time they say don't worry about it as long as it's not past like 9pm or before 10am. I extend the same courtesy to my neighbors in turn. Just communicate and be reasonable.

Actual competition for ISPs / access provision is required for this. All consumer ISPs still ban "servers" on their pipes; this is a clear sign of insufficient competition.
> anyone can make their own communication platform

and then the users of that platform would simply stand out in ISP logs making it actually easier to spot them. If this platform was a dedicated tool developed by/for a bad actor, then everyone working with/for that actor would be easily found.

Given that, it seems that steganography (combined with encryption) could be a solution with a "battle" between steganographic methods and algorithms to detect them

Interesting, thanks for the info. I guess our use cases differ enough that the experience is quite different, but I can easily see how if you needed strong C++ support alongside .Net, it'd be a good choice. In my own case, most of the really unique ones on your list are not present or needed, and some of the others (REPL, immediate window, graphical visualisation of tasks, etc) have equivalents which I feel are similar.

I suppose it's always going to come down on each developer's specific use cases and needs, and the average rating of the IDE will be a mix. I've just been consistently surprised with the positivity towards VS in _some_ areas, where my experience was a polar opposite. As an example, working with any sort of "relatively up to date" client side web UI tech (Angular, React) between 2014 and 2018 in VS was an exercise in pure frustration, whereas e.g. VS Code was not. At that time I would not have put VS in the top 3 for that environment, and I frequently wonder whether people just loved it out of seeing the world with MS glasses on, or what.
Obviously the timeline in the Bible is ridiculous with people living for hundreds of years and so on. But if you take the genealogies at face value, this is the rough time scale since creation you end up with.

Which is of course a good reason not to take the Bible at face value as historical overall (even if some of the parts are reasonably historical).
Interesting to see just how many responses to this real-world problem are suggesting that people rewrite CSV files to work with Excel.

They clearly do not understand system integration and the use of CSV text files for data interchange between multiple systems and application. Hey, JSON and Javascript libraries are the answer to that, eh

There are already enough potential issues with CSV interpretation on wrapping strings, escaping characters and so on, but changing the content when a delimiter is found should not be added to that list.

You bold point is the most important, the default behaviour of Excel when opening a plain text CSV file is to alter the content for display, applying magic and often-unwanted formatting rules. That should be optional.

It should be possible to open a text CSV file in Excel, view the contents in columns but the same textual form, save the file in CSV format and open it in another viewer/editor and still see the same content as the original file.
