I guess I don't really care if it's a jet or a turboprop. The point about the relationship between surface area and volume and drag is a good one. It'd be really cool if your VLJ was supersonic, in which case you win a lot for being really small, but there are other problems there that are even more serious.

On the topic of the specific plane in the article, I've seen the Avanti and its range still sucks wrt what I want.

Also, I wouldn't call X-Plane the inheriter... it's been around forever, too!

There is a chinese program SopPlayer (SopCast) which lets you P2P stream video in digital TV quality, works pretty well and is basically unknown. People here use it to watch football and other sports tv via internet. I think it basically lets you broadcast anything from your PC and other people to watch it, but without having to produce all the traffic.

They didn't even need a loud name to make the technology work.

Have you tried changing the density setting? It's a bit hard to find, it's the wheel beneath the page navigation, not the one in the black bar at the top. But personally I have the problem that cozy is too spacy and dense is too dense. Dense is very dense. But I agree with your points concerning the default settings for density and the other points like the button design.

The Most Overacting Actors: Take a Little Drama Off The Top
There are people in life who are exceptional actors, actors who could make you believe just about anything. Then, there are actors who aren't necessarily horrible, but their tendency to overact makes them about as believable as the Easter Bunny. Take myself, for instance, I am an overactor. I can't appear in front of an audience without overacting. I can't even stretch the truth without being completely dramatic. For me, it's a shame: I like to be on stage….and I really like to lie.
Tcprstat focuses on response time measurements
Hi... you're not alone.

I'm in my early twenties, at one point in my life there was a time when all I cared about were drugs, how many I could do, how many I had done, and how great of a time I could have on them.

Mixed with a bout of bad depression because my dad got sick it got to the point where I lost sight of what was important in life.

In all honesty, I expected by now I'd be dead. Sometimes, I still do. It wasn't till I had dropped out of college and started working a dead end job that I decided it was time to change. The fear of being stuck there the rest of my life and having lost all my potential from previous years was the scariest thing I've ever felt in my life, but it was also probably the best thing that could have happened to me..

I woke up at 4am, developed till I went in at 3pm, and then went straight to bed when I got home at midnight. I did this for months and months having never done any formal web programming before. I started with the basics, html and css. From there I went on to php, ruby, js, and obj-c. Each one was challenging.

All that stemmed from wanting to do "web design". Web programming gave me plenty of challenges that were easy enough to solve with brute force and hard work.

Don't give up. Keep challenging yourself. You're at your wits end and you say you're exhausted, and that's understandable. Getting my life back on track actually didn't start with programming for me, it started with exercise. I recommend taking up something you've always enjoyed and that you can do once a day. It will relieve stress and give you down time to relieve yourself from the worries of the world, your life, and your objectives.

Work not just on your web talent, but your life talent. Your sleep talent, your eating talent, your brain talent. Do puzzles. Challenge yourself. Don't give up.

For me www.reddit.com/r/get_motivated has helped in a big way. I know that may sound corny but fuck, sometimes those little quotes can do a lot for me. When I wake up sad or when it feels like things aren't going like they should, it's the little things that you need to do to get through to the next day.

You can get out of this rut by not giving up. By going on, working hard, and not quitting. It may not happen in a day, a week, a month, a year, or even two years. But as long as you keep going, one day it will happen.

If you need encouragement advice or help in any way, reply to my comment with a way for me to contact you. You are not alone, brother.

The end can be in 'cc deed' but it is quite uncommon. Usually, the first two strophes (does that word exists in english?) are quatrains and the two other are tercets.

I learned some of that in middleschol or highschool (in France) and for a few details by reading the french Wikipedia. But more importantly I have a friend who is very knowledgeable on this kind of subjects (a3_nm here on HN), which is really cool.
I would be inclined to consider MS Windows had monopoly on market of desktop OS, and that particular market had little government oversight, essentially a free market. And Microsoft did what any rational monopolist would do, use it's monopoly power to stop spread of any other OS (by deals with OEM,etc), tried to enter other markets by use of monopoly, etc etc. Standard oil comes to my mind as another monopoly, but the market of petroleum was essentially not that free.

Now you may argue that the OS market was not technically free (as none has been in history of mankind), but I don't see any reason that why a better product would not gain monopoly in free market, and then, barring any restriction, why would the monopolist not (ab)use its power to maintain monopoly.
At the risk of sparking pointless political debate: yes, it's nuts, bordering on inhumane.

What's funny is that the same people who vehemently oppose any form of socialized medicine would likely be appalled by the notion of having to pay out of pocket to call the police (or perhaps, monthly crime insurance premiums?). The one that we're used to is so normalized that it's unthinkable to do without, while the other is a scary abomination concocted by foreigners.

In fairness, some libertarians do favor privatizing things like fire and police, in which case I respectfully disagree, but admire their consistency.
If you switch the default search engine in Opera or Firefox, they won't try to to fuck the alternative provider over by blocking his ads.

I laughed when I saw the massive arrow pointing to the large object that delineates the exact shape of the thing that isn't delineating anything apparently. A perfect instance of not being able to see the wood for the trees.
Opera is a great browser. Unfortunately, not many people know that it's a great browser, because they use IE or Safari or Ff or Chrome.

Operas has very good mobile market share, i.e. where it matters now. They executed well on that space.

Whatever advantages they have on desktop (questionable IMHO) don't seem to be compelling or strong enough to win users over. And just like everyone else, they now have to fight the Google Chrome advertising juggernaut.
Regarding EchoSign, can you explain the complaint that you cannot control the signing date? If that means what I take it to mean, OF COURSE YOU CAN'T. It would be antithetical to the idea of reliable electronic signatures to allow a party to evidence that they entered an agreement at any time other than the actual agreement date.
Firing near whitehouse………….
It appears that it's currently lacking one important feature: a web peer that kicks off streaming right away.

P2P can certainly lower the bandwidth requirements of the host, but for the user experience to be smooth, the video has to start right away and right now the live client appears to be taking a long time to establish connections with other peers. During that time, the user has to wait.

If the system would download from a dedicated web host in addition to peers, the experience would be much smoother, IMHO. Heck, you could even use the technology to enhance basically anything on the web by using the normal HTTP data stream, but also looking for peers with data from the same URL to increase download speed.

Right now it looks like you need a critical mass of clients viewing the video before it'll even work. I've been sitting on the video for about 5 minutes with any video appearing. My network connection shows several open connections from BTLive, but it's not sending or receiving any data.
If you down-voted something perhaps you'd care to give your thoughts, at least, instead of hiding out there.
Except until you integrate it with Siri (Only iPhone 4S, for now) and suddenly it is the technology everyone needs.

Instagram: From Stanford to Startup
I think this design is very good and better for heavy users compared to the previous one:

* The new way to reply to emails makes it a lot faster to reply in the common case. It makes emails more similars to chat conversations where you can reply with just one line or alike, that is a necessary shift today, otherwise no one will reply to emails soon as it is a killer of your time.

* The icons will tell you what they do if your pointer is over the icon, since there are a few icons after a week or so you know what every one is doing, and the fact they are very well "exposed" in the UI makes their use comfortable.

* New stars make more sense, less different types, more semantically shaped and colored.

* When the UI is set to "compact" is the perfect amount of information IMHO, if you receive a lot of emails. But you can change that depending on the amount of conversions you handle and on your tastes.

What I really don't like instead? Formatting is not retained on emails, it strips newlines, spaces and so forth in a random way. This is very very bad.

I was just taking a look at ycuniverse and noticed that the 4th startup on the list, trunk.ly was acquired by AVOS(Delicious) and I have not gone through the whole list yet. A friend of mine always reminds me "are you playing to play or are you playing to win?".I would also like to quote the last paragraph from the blog post.

"We still know that chance is there and believe that we can do it. It's always been up to us to prove it, being accepted into YC, or not, doesn't actually change that fundamental requirement. We've got great supporters and more ammunition in the bag still - so it's back to the grind stone again and let's move forward (another thing that wouldn't change whether we were in YC or not)."

It's not that cheap, they asks 1500$ for Intel Core i7-2720 version. I could understand if they were offering it with something unusual...say IBM Power 7 CPU, but for a keyboard pc with that common specs it's too much. Also, their website is slow, made using ASP and not so attractive looking. I don't see why any Linux geek would ever want to get it.
Soldiers have always held worthy adversaries in high regard, respecting them even more highly than allies perceived as unworthy (i.e. allies who are craven, weak, incompetent, etc.). However, the key word there is "worthy." I don't see a lot of vets coming back with a lot of respect for the enemies in Iraq and Afghanistan. At most, there is the kind of "respect" you give to a dangerous animal: you know it's not just a "dumb" animal, and you know it could strike at any moment without warning, so you have to keep your guard up without fail. I think a big part of this has to do with how they fight: deliberately targeting civilians in order to create terror, killing entire families who are suspected of American sympathies, etc.

So if the question is:

>Do we (or should we) unequivocally respect anyone who risks their lives for a "higher" cause?

I think there are two criteria to consider:

1: Is the cause truly noble? If not, then we might be able to respect those who risk their lives for it, but we do not revere or praise them.

2: Do they fight honorably? If not, then they do not deserve respect (except maybe for the "dangerous animal" kind of respect I mentioned previously). Even if the cause is noble, those who fight for it only deserve respect if they fight honorably.

OpenCV originated at Intel and was based on Intel's IPL.

Professionalism, and standards of behavior and maturity?

Isn't that the exact same reasons given by pointy haired managers against wearing jeans at work?

That is not professionalism, that is giving the appearance of a "professional" to people who don't know any better.

Professionalism lies in being honest with your clients, delivering, and keeping the standards of quality of your trade (IT in our case), not of the jokes you tell.

And it's funny how, say, Star Wars jokes would have been totally fine with the audience, but a reference to tits and the gates of hell open. Again, "professionalism" is not what's under attack here, it's the prudes.

"""Because there is nothing here about political correctness. This is about professionalism, consideration, and maturity."""

Are you under the impression that if you repeat a sentence two or more times, you make it an argument? This is exactly what you wrote in your opening paragraph, and you failed to give any justification.

So, I insist: this is all about "political correctness" --and the fact that you invoke "consideration", " standards of behavior" and "maturity" only gives this more credit. Isn't PC a set of "standards of behavior" that are all about "consideration"?

As for the "Additionally, the term "politically correct" is used as a pejorative these days, so it's of little value" argument, I can't even begin to describe how lame it is.

"""Please take your attitude back to Reddit."""

I've never been a Reddit member, and I don't define myself as a HN member either, it's just a page I read.

What are you, fifteen years old (mentally), to define yourself by some site you frequent?

And you were ranting about "professionalism" earlier? Right.

I am surprised nobody has mentioned Flightradar24[0] yet. It displays planes on a Google Map with altitude, airline and flight path information. The data comes directly from ADS-B receivers of volunteers, so only planes with ADS-B transponder are shown and the coverage outside of Europe is spotty.

That is false. (No information is lost in the Fourier Transform.) However, I'm not sure how Fourier analysis would help in this case - image processing is not my forte. Perhaps there would be a spike at the spatial frequency where the discontinuities occur (given that the discontinuities are evenly spaced)?

EDIT: Given the slices, is it possible to order them properly entirely in the frequency domain?
In general, if you are depending on a secret cryptographic algorithm, then you are doing something wrong. Cryptographic algorithms are horribly complicated, with many attack vectors you need to know, and prevent. Chances are, someone writing their own code isn't going to make a secure system. By using a known, secure system, it doesn't actually matter if people know what it is. A known system has been tested, and deemed to be 'secure'. If knowing the name did mean they could exploit it, then it probably isn't a good system to be using in the first place.

As an example, here is an attack you may not have considered. If you wanted to make an authentication system, you would want to compare a password with a stored password (or hash). Most people would do a byte by byte comparison of the passwords (or hashes). The problem is, a byte by byte comparison takes longer for a correct password (even if you use hashes), as the incorrect answer exits on the first compare failure. This is called a timing attack, and is an example of a side channel. Most people wouldn't even know that such an attack existed. This is why you want to use a known algorithm, because the people who wrote them know these kinds of attacks. So if people know your secure algorithm, they shouldn't be able to exploit that knowledge.

Here are two links posted here recently, which show these concepts very well. The third is an hour talk about cryptography in general, and I highly recommend it.

Flash was not an app. It was supposed to extend the Apple's browser. Imagine you develop the browser, and you can decide if you want to allow me to "extend" it causing it: crashing all the time (see how it performs on the OS X), making the otherwise fluid pages "stuck" and unresponsive, and finally, not even having a ready version of extension for years. Furthermore, if you're aware that anybody who develops something new would have anyway to develop the interaction differently for your mobile device, and that the main benefit of my extension is for the already deployed code (the one designed for the desktops). But you know that the already deployed code simply cant be run "properly" (as in having a proper interaction) on the mobile device no matter how the extension is developed. Then would you allow me to diminish the value (making it behaving worse) of your already finished product?
