But is it open-source?

I really believe that all Enterprise platform software should have an open-source version if it is to have a meaningful effect on how people work (in this case, how Data Scientists and Data Engineers work together).
It's also true that you can respond to the substance of ZeroHedge's analysis in the article in question rather than deferring to a third party who made an assessment of ZeroHedge's general trustworthiness.
I want to go out there and say that I hate SSL inspection. But in the case of our VDI workstations the way the company has it it's not something you can turn off. They're trying to put software on all our laptops which would make SSL inspection a reality on our laptops as well but I'm avoiding it like the plague. It's just too hard to teach all the applications that I use to use a certificate chain that they're not interested in using.
I stand corrected. It's good to hear from another HNer in the region.
I get a strong buzzword bingo vibe from this post. On a related note, is there a good reason to ever have something like a "data lake" (and call it like that)? Whenever I've encountered someone bringing up the idea to "build a data lake", a few questions later it became clear they just had a messy pile of incoherent, poorly-understood data and wanted to twist it into something positive by giving that pile a fancy name.
This place definitely does not deserve any of my impulsive cynicism. I want to be able to read your discussions without my poor input, I've changed my pw on older accounts to gibberish just so I block myself from commenting.

HN has given me tons of hope for online communities, but every now and then, I run into what Yahoo article discussions looked like post 9/11(lots of whistling to the same tune, started by IC speakers). Don't go there, and you will not hear from me. These are my terms.

That's a common phenomenon. Statically typed programming languages try to implement features of dynamically typed programming languages, whereas dynamically typed programming languages try to implement features of statically typed programming languages. On one side, we have a struggle of languages like C++ attempting to relax their own rigidness to achieve dynamic behavior, and on the other, we have languages like Javascript and Lisp attempting to constraint their own dynamic nature for benefits that come from static typing.
Yes, Pilosa is OSS under Apache 2.
It seems perfectly common surnames also missed if nobody with that name happened to have a child in the last x years (where x is quite small).

I'm not going to try do statistics, but I reckon that's quite a lot. Census would be a better source than birth registers.
Fizzy drinks are perfectly functional in fountains. And dirt cheap for the restaurants, to the degree that the soda companies restrict their availability to consumers.

The single use drinks are sold at massive profit.

I joke that restaurants are almost universally places that break even on food, if they are lucky, and make all their profit on hard/soft drinks.

To some degree, Reddit has addressed the problem of a large online community by subdividing itself and allowing each division to moderate itself (to some degree). However, what might be more interesting is an automated subdivision of users. For example, even if HN has hundreds of thousands of users, philosophic-types would only see links and comments from other philosophic-types. Trolls would get lumped with trolls. With a significant percentage of outside-your-demographic to keep things lively as well as gather further data about what kind of community a user truly enjoys engaging with. Especially important is identifying constructive conflict — the type of person you enjoy disagreeing with (if not in the moment, at least afterward).

So basically, instead of subdividing by interesting-content-type, subdivide by healthy-community-type. This might solve the problem of when communities get too large, without creating a lifeless echo-chamber of endless up-votes.
Just how prevalent is Rust in the industry? I remember trying it out back in 2014 and saw nothing of interest, as a Haskell user. A lot of the main "selling points" of Rust are getting introduced in C++. Also, what is it about Rust that gets automatic top view on HN?
I think a better question is: has any of this been validated? These all sound like the kind of things that should be verifiable yet I've read these claims many times but never seen a source.

Given the way Trump has captured the following of the conservative community, despite being a radical populist and having few policy accomplishments besides inflaming racial tensions, yes. It's reasonable starting assumption about any group that continues to express support for Trump.

I'm not a fan of identity politics, I generally try to ignore race, and I try to give people the benefit of the doubt. But at this point it's awfully hard to not conclude that Trump is a race baiting bigot. My final straw was the FUD about Kamala Harris's birth certificate. Apparently "birth certificate" really is just a simplistic dog whistle for pointing out that someone is Black.

I'm a libertarian and think that both parties screw the People similarly, but after four years of this destructive ignorant bullshit enough is enough. It's time to take our country back.

I'm from a typically red state. I'm fairly conservatarian, I wouldn't mind if pot was legal. But pro-legalization groups often talk about it as if legalized pot was completely void of negative externalities. And that is wrong. It is fair to argue that the negative effects of criminalization take a larger toll on the public than legalization. But chronic marijuana use makes you stupid. Like, really, really fucking stupid. And that isn't good either. I think the legalization movement would serve itself best in convincing red states to legalize pot as well if it was open about the fact that there are bad things about pot, and making an argument of societal harm reduction. Not harm elimination.
This headline is propaganda, and isn't reflected in the content of the story (which quotes lawyers saying the document "fuel[ed]" the theory.)

The Seth Rich as the DNC leaker "conspiracy" theory was set off by the fact that there was a DNC data leak large enough that some people think that it couldn't have been remote without being detected, so they think it was by an insider. Also, Seth Rich, a DNC IT guy was randomly murdered in an unsolved case.

Nothing else. There was no evidence, just a suspicious coincidence. It is a theory with no evidence supporting it other than that coincidence, not a refuted or a false theory.

This is a person who fabricated a document supporting the theory, not the person who set it off.

Other outlets have generally been more careful.

adblock and ublock are absolutely not interchangeable.

Here is the source code for ublock: https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock which is GNU GPL v3.0

Adblock is run by Wladimir Palant's Eyeo GmbH. It used to be an open source project but was rewritten to what it is now and is tied to "acceptable advertising" policies and is run by a for-profit company. As always, if you aren't paying for it, you should be asking who is.
Thanks, and it sounds like you have a pretty good setup started at your place. The Ubiquity gear is a great way to have an ecosystem that is straightforward to manage. Those Lutron switches are great as well. I'm just now getting around to getting the Z-wave homeseer radios setup and linking them to my switches. Lots to do, but it sure is fun to see things automated!
I can understand your bone to pick. It's the same pretty much everywhere in the stack. As a frontend I sometimes find myself looking at the barrel because the industry demands I ship barely usable crap. Javascript is a decent tool but these days I feel I've lost touch.It went from tool to religion in no time at all.

Same thing for mobile devs. UIs are basically from dribble shots with no sense of real world usability. Even I had trouble navigating that crap. But food must fill that fridge. Rent must get paid. I'll keep shovelling the crap and shipping it.
Yeah I don't think the problem with Sun's UI stuff was an individual or a group but probably big corp politics.
> Is it true that the F# compiler can be super slow especially on larger codebases?

Define slow. I never had an issues with the compilation speed of F#.

> why use F# when you can use OCaml?

Even though both of them are in the same family they could not be further away from each other. OCaml has many standard libraries more you can read here: https://discuss.ocaml.org/t/what-is-the-preferable-solution-...

F# has (almost) everything that is available in the CLR, which means tons of high quality libraries, ready to be used in production.

Another advantage is AWS support. Since C# is a tier one language in the cloud F# is also a tier one language. I am not sure where OCaml falls into in this space.

Other than these I am not sure why, but these are pretty big ones for us. I love OCaml and trying to use it whenever I can, which is not that much unfortunately.
Rhymes with "revenue". 2016 I made a large (for me) investment into FB certain that the revenue would appear, and it worked out quite handsomely. I can't stomach it this time.
There is a substantive difference between "couldn't get any users because of an error" (Nothing) and "succeeded but found no users" (Just []).

But, if that really is the reason for Maybe [a] over [a], I'd still prefer Either SomeUsefulErrorType [a].
Independently of how much they've earned so far from the program, huge props to the folks that worked on this (55 vulnerabilities, 10 of which marked critical!)
Yeah, I think strong worker representation in governments is very important for a capitalist democracy to work well. USA doesn't have that for some reason, basically all their politicians comes from a 1% or at least 10% home. Could be due to these strange union practices they have.
I’m sorry you feel that way.

That is assuming that native applications will die and everything moves to a browser. While browser based apps have their ever widening place I do not really see them displacing everything else. And if it happens we will have one giant monoculture. Googles's wet dream. I am not really looking forward to such an outcome.
> It also uses an outline.com like style for the articles,

I don't see that. When click on the articles, it is just going to the articles. Otherwise ,it is really nice and I do like the idea of it not becoming an addictive slot machine.

This looks like a highly specialised tool. How is it going to integrate with a Data Scientist's favourite tools, such as Jupyter notebooks, Pandas or Spark and especially ML frameworks like TensorFlow, SkLearn etc.?
The fact that you can actually ship an app. I've been writing my app (it's an IDE for music http://ngrid.io) in Rust after trying it in cpp and swift and it's a joy to use.

Haskell is cool and all but every time I tried it, I spent too much tle with package management for example.

Also you can't really ship an app in Haskell.

You need a precise conception of trolling. going against the norm (or groupthink) and questioning them can also be seen as trolling.
It is not exhustive in any sense. There are enormously famous people, like Charles de Gaulle or Jaques Chirac whose last names are apparently not part of the exhaustive list.
Having one central place to find and access data, even if its messy, can be better for understanding and using the data than each business unit/team/... having their own different place for (still messy) data. It can of course also be utterly pointless if done badly, not maintained, not used, ...
Damn, cashapp or paypal.
Nah, it's a messy pile of data that you want to understand rather than throw away.
It's possible, but it requires investment, and it's likely to slow down productivity a little. The default approach in big traditional corps (not implying Apple is traditional) is to leave it up to IT, and maybe hire a Security Officer to signal virtue and assign blame.
Then your conclusion should be that there were no fine people on either side, not that there were. If you truly believe that leftism is as evil as racial genocide then actually stand by that.

If ignorance leads you to provide ammunition for people who support racial genocide and you don’t leave once you notice the nazi flags flying at a march you attend... I really don’t know what to say.
You are making the false assumption that these people are working fulltime, which they are not. At least 3 of them have full time jobs.
The "you can't print arrays larger than 32" thing was a common papercut for beginners. You could usually work around it with slices, but until now that's been yet another thing to memorize on day 1 or week 1. It only takes a couple of papercuts to go from "this is challenging but fun" to "this is pointlessly frustrating", so I'm always very happy when one of the big ones gets fixed.
> The law specifically protects programs as a form of literary work.

No, it doesn't (it's true that it implicitly does so with limitations on the protection that can be applied to them later than where it specifies what is protected, but it does not explictly include them in the list of what is protected, or explictly define them as “literary works” which are explicitly protected.) Computer programs (whether source code or otherwise) are processes. They aren't literary works describing processes. It's easy enough to see this is true.

If you change the expression of a literary work but not the process it describes, if someone is executing the process based on the new description as part of a larger set of processes, there is no impact—the process itself is unaffected.

If you change the supposed “expression” of a piece of computer source code, say by changing the names used for functions and arguments either that it calls or that it defines, and then compile it with other software it normally links with, it either breaks or creates object code that behaves differently at runtime. There is no “literary expression” that is not part of the process code describes, whether it relates to the compile time process the code describes, the link time process, or the runtime process. Code is pure process, and not only is process not explicitly protected it is explicitly not protected by copyright.

> API declarations constitute expression of an idea which has many ways to be expressed.

No, they are a concrete embodiment of a process (well, a set of potentially compile time, link time, runtime, and maybe other processes), and any change alters the process embodied materially. That's even more obviously the case with API definitions than it is with code generally, since the whole use of API declarations is to formally, mechanically define the functionality of the interface between separate pieces of code.

Ask HN: Pushback on Interviews?
Interviews are becoming an ever increasing time sink. Multiple rounds of phone screens, quizzes, take home tests, online assessments and whiteboarding. It is ridiculous that companies who want to hire professional knowledge workers are expecting candidates to put in tens of hours of work (not counting any prep time) for free without having any skin in the game themselves. Where to draw the line? How to push back on ridiculous requirements? Is it fair to ask for compensation of your time? How to cut back on interview bloat?

Like many makers, they use many different steels across their collection, so you'll need to be more specific. See: https://kershaw.kaiusa.com/blade-steels
I noticed the algolia search is not very good and doesn’t go back as far. I think it limits results to 6 years or so.
Great question. Right now we have pushed hard to make SQL the primary interface to our feature store and can output Pandas and other formats at query time, however we are working on integrated/hosted Jupyter notebooks and excited to continue collaborating with the community on better feature first/oriented endpoints/interfaces. There is so much room to innovate here.

Why it is important to launch your Restaurant based mobile application
I've never hunted bugs, but you could start by picking a target website and inspecting traffic on register/login pages, user input screens, pages that load dynamic content (may lead you to API endpoints with methods to exploit), etc.

Look at the Apple Distinguished Educators case. They went in with an immediate goal: get admin access. So they targeted the account admin pages. Once you know what technologies were used to build a service/site (in this case Jive), you can do a lot of due diligence looking for known vulnerabilities or common attack vectors with that software.
Stupid question, but will Rust ever have a non strict mode. I'm used to writing C# , Python and JS.

It really goes to show Apple Advertising has no basis in reality. "Security" claims are obviously debunked on a weekly basis if you work in tech.

"Privacy" claims are just as nonsensical as we've seen Apple bend to multiple governments (PRISM). You bet Apple will sell your privacy if the deal is good enough.

That being said, I don't think anything can be secure, we must treat everything as potentially compromised and act accordingly. I diversify my emails/bank/HDD/etc... So if one gets hacked, I didn't lose everything. Edit- Also those Superstars may be known, but you bet there are experts that would take the money rather than prestige.
While it's a great marketing and reputation building tool, it's still pretty poor to pay people in exposure; they could have taken each and every one of these exploits to the black market instead and they probably would have earned a lot more money.
It's good to see Facebook finally taking a firm stand against fake news and hate speech. All this hateful fake news makes me (pronouns he/him) feel unsafe about the future.

The other day, my Fitbit indicated to me that my heartbeat was abnormally high; I was panicking and hyperventilating... Thankfully Alexa automatically ordered me a puffer from Amazon and I was able to calm myself down. That's how unsafe all this fake news makes me feel. Someone needs to take a stand against Trump's basket of deplorables. They're hurting my democracy.

I'm so pleased that Biden is taking a lead in all the polls. These deplorables are not qualified to vote, they don't know what's good for them so we have to choose for their own protection. I know how important it is that we can all feel safe. Biden is the only way to feel safe.
I see...

There's certain ancient technology that solves all those problems, then. Its name is.... Money! ;)

But of course you knew that. May the Force be with you
I have a benchmade made of ATS-34 from Hitachi. Soon after, they seemed to switch to US steels (S30V and 154CM). I always wondered if it was due to changes in import tariffs.
I’ve used eurotechni a lot for many various steel: from super cheap ultra common XC75 to my most loved one: VG10 (and lots of them in between).

It’s great to be able so easily to forge or material removal shaping of many blades. A lot of thanks to all these merchants.
I dont know Haskell, why can't you ship an app in Haskell?
No, it's censorship no matter who does it. It's only illegal if the government does it.
Means that functions are evaluated at compile time.

However in this case, these are const generics, so you no longer need to use macro to generate [char;1],[char;2]...

You just write [char; N] where N is const. Compiler determines which values of N are used and generates for them an appropriate version.
What is "ship an app" supposed to even mean here? Being able to build a binary for distribution? Both Swift and C++ can do that, and likely Haskell too.
For the types of stuff Rust is often used for, the strictness is a feature.
I believe it's similar to "constexpr" in C++ -- it means those functions can now be evaluated at compile time.
What are you using for the UI layer?
