On a faintly related note, I once was calculating partitions, using a relatively inefficient method (memoization: if f(n,k) is the number of distinct ways to express n as the unordered sum of integers no greater than k, then f(n,k) = f(n-k,k) + f(n,k-1)). My computer started to feel the strain in the thousands (this algorithm is O(n^2) in space and time). I then googled for the partition of, say, 1034, which is:

91363785902248291467082481888195

I figured that chances are that no website will have that integer on there by accident. Lo and behold, I found, among other results, a text file containing the partitions up to 10,000, presumably done with a more efficient algorithm (likely Euler's ridiculous pentagonal-number recurrence formula, which, memoized, is roughly O(n^1.5) in time and O(n) in space): http://oeis.org/A000041/b000041.txt

Initially he makes it sound like there is no translation into a different model but at the end of the article he takes it all back and for good reason:

Also it's important to keep a good decoupling between the events and the model structure itself. It may be tempting to come up with some automatic mapping system that retrospects on the event data and the model, but this couples the events and model together which makes it difficult to migrate the model and still process old events.

So, you're right that he doesn't envision a translation to a relational model but it's not just object structures either.
The goal of STM is to be composable, unlike locks:

http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/um/people/simonpj/papers...

The title of the paper is "Compsable Memory Transactions", and here's an excerpt:

As we show, STM can be expressed particularly elegantly in a declarative language, and we are able to use Haskell’s type system to give far stronger guarantees than are conventionally possible. Furthermore transactions are compositional: small transactions can be glued together to form larger transactions.

> this is why I like reddit more than HN now. Sorry if this hurts anyone's feelings but that is how it is.

I do not think they are comparable at all. Maybe we could compare r/technology to HN, but the idea of the subreddits is exactly to cover a wide breadth of topics.

I also love some subreddits and almost never look at the most visited ones (pics, lol, games, etc).

The only thing that is missing for me is a way to "weight" each subreddit so that they higher preference to the stories in the homepage. This is because there are subreddits that only get one or two links every day, and due to the slow amount of subscribers, they get low votes. I'd like to be able to prioritize these in some way so that they get at the top of my front-page. Or better yet, let an algorithm calculate the "importance" of the thread based on the share of upvotes to subreddit subscribers.

>2. They are smart people. Contrary to popular beliefs, not every redditor is abour lolcats

I think the correct way to put it is that there are smart people. However, right now the majority of them are in different subreddits.

>3. I like the light hearted part. I don't know about you but people here are very focused on their work perhaps. Some light hearted comments (even if they are witty or clever jokes) will get downvoted and fade into the background (literally).

Well, I love the serious nature of HN. In some way it is like the old time Usenet discussions. The only thing I do not like about HN is the heavy nit-picking. But I can live with that in exchange of the really interesting discussion. I came here after leaving Slashdot, due to the decline in quality (there is so much Technology Politics I can stand).

>I am going to join either ai-class or ml-class (dammit I need to decide), subreddits of both are available. Isn't that fantastic?

Yes! this is the great value of reddit. IMO It is like a new type of Usenet. BTW, If you have taken an AI class, I would recommend you to go for that, as I am sure you are going to "touch" ML themes on that. Otherwise, if you are specifically interested in ML then go for it :)

Missing iPhone redux
I've had few designers that handed me the design in html/css and it looks fantastic. Then when I start to drop in the code behind I find all types of things broken. Usually these are cascading reflow errors. They put in a few lines of Lorem Ipsums but the returned value might be a paragraph or be an empty field.

Now I have the impossible task of working my own code and fixing the shims the designer put in.

This doesn't happen that often but more than enough. Usually, only the designers that know enough HTML to think it's like Photoshop attempt this. Most others treat it as the markup language it is, with loose constraints.
There is a very simple solution for this problem: functional design in the form of wireframes and descriptions.

Design is communication and interaction. Design consists of functional and graphic design.

When you provide a functional design to a graphic designer you can explain things like: "this will be dynamic text, can be short can be long", "this title can be short, can be long", "this column can contain 1 up to 5 repeating elements", "there has to be a search box somewhere around here", "the main goal is to trigger an subscribe action", "make sure the width of this column is x pixels because there will be a default banner".

Native UI is vastly more powerful compared to HTML and CSS, which were designed to display web pages, not widgets and controls.

In fact I don't understand what kind of experience you have to say something like that. If you were a web designer you would know that the web UI is a painful to use hack.
If you were a mobile/desktop developmer you would know that both types of UIs are better at showing pretty much anything on a screen - including a browser engine.

The APIs behave differently at times (e.g. location services), you can't simulate a lot of conditions you can on the Android emulator (memory, network speed, sensors, GPS movement, SMS, calls, loss of signal...) making the simulator useful only for playing with visual layout.

That is something someone should work on, instead of making a new social aggregation site. The new site will be good for one or two years, then it will hit mainstream and lolcats will ensue. I have heard many people say that if you want to determine how popular one social site is then you just have to calculate the number of mames per post in the public or most general stream.

Well, I love the serious nature of HN

I never said subreddits are not serious. Most of the posts portray the same quality as HN (many a times even more than HN IMHO, maybe there is a section common between the two sites). The problem is, HN is never not serious. That does not seem right to me. I must be able to joke about my work. We also don't have to be judgmental about other people's work. Its one thing to criticize someone's library because it has a badly designed API and it is quite other thing to tell game programmers they are wasting their talent in their own selected job.

I think the correct way to put it is that there are smart people. However, right now the majority of them are in different subreddits.

The correct way to put it is, that if you cannot find smart people on reddit, you are looking in the wrong subreddit. Of course you are not going to find smart people on every damn reddit. After all reddit is a general purpose site and thus many people are not what you would consider "smart". Damn, there are people who come to reddit "just to have a good time". Fools they are. Internet is all about having intelligent discussions dammit ;)

I do not think they are comparable at all. Maybe we could compare r/technology to HN, but the idea of the subreddits is exactly to cover a wide breadth of topics.

I posted it here because I have read many, many times that HN is much better than reddit. That reddit is soon gonna die or something equivalent. No hard feelings, but I despise such proclamations if not the people who make them.

True, but their link to the file gives a Not Found. I wonder what's going on there..
The extraordinary high breakup fee is important here, and it's there despite the many reasons we and the DOJ itself are citing.
It seems that they breach everything - it;s a terrible deal for consumers.

So why are AT&T and their investment bankers pushing so hard for this deal? There is certainly an agency cost - the execs at AT&T want to do a deal and run a bigger company, and their lawyers and bankers want the deal to go ahead so they van get paid. However T-Mobile has to spend money on lawyers and bankers as well, and so some of that breakup fee will be used to pay them, as well as T-Mobile itself.

AT&T were banking on a compliant DOJ, and to be fair over the last decade there was very little push-back from any of the regulators. Since the GFC we would hope that they look over business dealing a bit more firmly, and this seems to be the case.

PBS have a very good article (video) on the topic. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-XquULysO1E

In Australia, NZ and the UK there is a Commerce Commission or Monopoles Regulator that can just say no to deals like this. It's sad that the DOJ has to do so via an expensive lawsuit. Your taxes at work.
I'm not disagreeing that a conceptual framework is superior.

But I picture it like this, in my very naive way.

1) launch satellites

2) after some time, engineers notice the clocks keep running behind/ahead (I always forget)

3) engineers debate, and have no clue what's happening

4) engineers build fix to re-synch the clocks every 24 hours or so

5) gps system works fine, engineers remain puzzled

And then of course

6) after years of puzzlement, some kid figures out what's going on

Really the point is that nothing can be injected into the git history undetected. To add any new code to the repository it needs to be put at the top of the 'stack' as the last commit. So even if someone got access to Linus' (or any other high level dev) machine they wouldn't be able to inject malware undetected as a look at recent commits would show the changes made.
I guess the best an attacker could hope for would be to modify the git binaries on the server. Even that would amount to little it seems.

People keep seeming to talk about how "Apple is not this sloppy".

It wasn't Apple, it was some employee who like all of us, probably had a bit too much to drink and left his phone. Or maybe it got pick pocketed? Honestly, this only a recent occurrence because Apple iPhones are small enough to forget, unlike laptops, and people actually care about them, unlike the latest ipod nano/mini/shuffle/touch.

And it's only happened twice in a period of what? 4 years of iPhones?

Well, in fact anyone should ensure a positive ROI for visits, otherwise no visit is cost-effective after the free tier. If you make more than you spend per visit, you don't need limits and the infinite scaling capability is a godsend.
I'm sorry, I was making a different point. I didn't mean to imply that deterrent force is immoral... just that the amount is something that needs to be arbitrated, rather than decided solely by the victim of the crime. That is to say, if you stole a car and used it for a week, you'd owe equivalent to the rental of the car, and whatever else is necessary to make he owner whole -- thus that includes compensation for any consequential results (like, maybe he lost money because he'd been hired to do a job and couldn't' do that job during the week because you had his car.) There's also, from the perspective I was describing, a compensation that covers hassle, inconvenience, and the fact that your actions were morally wrong. So, yes, there should be a deterrence and yes, it is owed to the victim, but it should be adjudicated. Its possible that violating the privacy of the thief is crime that is greater than the actual theft of the laptop in the first place (if you were to reduce both to monetary damages.)
Didn't the change make I/O free? If I recall correctly, you aren't charged for time waiting for API calls.

Funny how Duckduckgo lists all sites linking to this story.
The double dot indicates that this is a ranged query.

11..22 would be to search for all integers between 11 and 22.

The effect is that the search is too broad. The problem is more likely to be that the range search is a mapreduce that performs a search for each item in the range.

You can imagine why that's a bad idea, and some aggressive timeouts are probably what stop it from going too far.

Plus the numbers in the range of the OP search are likely to fall in the ranges of sensitive numbers, credit cards being the most sensitive... which are likely to be explicitly blocked.

Sure, just as you'd understand a library or function to be "thread safe" it could be considered "transactional." I'm saying STM is to be used in as fine a grain as possible, even if it's composing "larger grains." Just as thread-safety doesn't mean entering a shared, global critical section at the beginning of every function, STM doesn't mean that every block of code should be wrapped in a transaction. STM should really only be applied to writes that would cause the system to be in an improper state if partially applied.

Revoking a certificate works as follows:

2. You pretend that people will check the CRL before trusting the forged certificate, ignoring the fact that some clients only check for updates to the CRL periodically and most don't check CRLs at all.

In short, it doesn't really work.
