What were the/were there any psychedelic effects of the dosage you took? Did you find you could still "function" in day to day life (work, school, etc)?
Do you have an example?

The cases I've read about were of the form "app A asks app B to do something it can't via the Intent system". That sounds scary until you realize that a standard example of this is an app that can't access the network sharing something via email. In other words, app A has transferred control to app B and what the user does (or doesn't) decide to do with app B is their choice, not app A's.
Doubtful. The materials are not that expensive and it would appear to be a sizable markup. Just my $0.02.
Not a good point AT ALL. LSD tolerance builds up over absurdly short times. If you take a dose today, and another tomorrow, you'll experience drastically fewer effects. Thus, you never hear of "LSD addicts". There may be other psychological dangers involved for certain individuals, but addiction is not going to be a concern, for purely physiological reasons.
Where does it say that? All the references are to 'Duqu Framework', which they recently found, I may have missed something

They also completely rule out C++, C etc. when what they should be ruling out is C++, C compiled with a standard VS compiler (or an easily recognizable compiler). It is silly to completely rule out C++ and C just because they don't immediately recognize the output and because it doesn't reference anything else

I don't think it's a good point at all, unless it comes with some evidence. There is so much FUD, wishful thinking, and social harm surrounding this topic that we need to be particularly careful with it.

The post mentioned that the scanners are one of 20 layers of security and mentions Behavioral detection, Explosive Detection Canines, Federal Air Marshall etc as some of the other "layers" of security. I wanted to see what these 20 layers were, and I really didn't see anything that would "protect" against someone exploiting the scanners like the video demonstrated. In fact one of the "layers" of security was "Intelligence". How comforting. If you want to see some serious security theater, check out http://www.tsa.gov/what_we_do/layers/index.shtm.

I am familiar with the Federal Tort Claims Act. No reasonable person would consider your original claim a tort. Where are the damages from one government employee making a hollow threat? What specific expenses or losses did the newspaper incur because a federal employee made a threat?

The problem with OCaml is that you need to recompile every library you use whenever you update the compiler; even minor versions. You might be able to use it for any program, but not for every program.
An app needs to be sold(given away via coupon) with this for it to be worth very much. I haven't/can't develop for iSeries devices, but have seen it possible to start severs where users can view video streams or upload files.

So, have the app connect to the iFrame server. Find out the internal IP(sent via query, idk) then start the server. Give the user a webspace(iframe.com/username). Now the user can log into their frame remotely and view their camera, change photos, upload content, ssh, whatever AND you could still sell the app. Still not worth a couple $100, but there needs to be some more value added here I think.
It is demonized as it wakes the user up to the bullshit of the system. If you see the universe in all its natural glory, you flatly reject the idea that you should pay fealty to the faulty systems of corrupt humans.

LSD is illegal because it creates more Humanity in humans, Humanity which is more closely connected with reality.
It's quite likely that humans need conflict in their lives to feel complete. The area of evolutionary psychology points strongly in that direction as does a subjective observation of our history.

I find online wars to be much more favorable than actual bloodshed. Even an occasional meltdown would be much less disastrous than real life conflict.

If it's a flash problem, I don't think Chromium has flash at all.
I took the broader class to be articles about <company> using/working with OSM, not <company> misusing OSM data. However, I'd also say that if people are going to write about that sort of low-profile collaboration between Microsoft and OSM, I think plenty more people would have written about it if Microsoft had done anything inappropriate with OSM or OSM data.

As for the Google contractors, I remember that being a big story (especially coming on the heels of the Kenya incident) until Google fired them and apologized.

Similarly, I'd expect interest in Apple's failure to credit OSM to go away once they fix it and apologize. Apple's use of OSM is interesting on its own terms, of course, so I doubt interest in that will die down anytime soon.

I like the idea that it is an OO language that forgoes its own runtime library and instead uses the Win32 API as its native library. This would be a great language to write viruses in -- perfect for just glueing together APIs and doing some very small scale business logic without having to learn C++.

I just don't understand how these things really so earth-shattering, higher res display and a new cell radio? From posts like this you would think this was as big as the original iPad announcement, some fundamental shift in strategy or moving into a whole new market instead of just the smallest amount of incremental improvements that you can possibly make and call something an entirely new version of the product.
This is awesome. I started testing for them when the first HN post was made; or round about, just let me brag. I was always amazed with their tech and even tried applying- didn't make it- and can't think of another HN company who has made bigger strides or a better product.

I'm glad that you guys are getting to move on to bigger, and hopefully better, things! What are your plans for the company/tech? It would be nice to see this introduced into the medical field as a cost effective way to manipulate UI.

The author suggests to not get caught up on a programming language and use that as just a tool. I think I agree.

Study in Power by Allan Nevins is a great biography of Rockefeller.

E.H. Harriman by George Kennan is very good. It's also available on Google books (http://books.google.com/books?id=4fcZAAAAYAAJ).

If you haven't heard of Harriman, I encourage you to read about him. He is the epitome of the the 19th century industrialist. When he's not taking over railroads, he's out on scientific expeditions to Alaska, or squeezing shorts on the stock market, or hunting, or boxing, or playing pranks on his overly cocky Wall Street friends.
...not sure that's why it's illegal, but I definitely agree with the assessment of the effect.
Does that happen because Haskell has significant whitespace? I suppose you might get used to the way it requires you to line things up and come to like it.

(let
((a b)
(c d))
foo)

Seems odd to me because the (a b) and (c d) are semantically the same but can't line up. Or, they can't line up without spending a new line on each function call, as if this were Java or something.

Don't worry; I know Haskell isn't Java-like. (Haskell is Python plus Perl: Significant whitespace plus polymorphism based on external context of the expression. Written in the APL charset.)
Fabric isn't mentioned once in the README. Says "We didn't like the alternatives out there." with no details.

Having said that, it looks like the HTTP server is the USP here. Being able to have non-techies run Fabric tasks is definitely a goal that's passed me fleetingly in the night. So, add this to Fabric and we're good.

EDIT: The author, Dan Lecocq is near me in Seattle so, what with it being a small world and all, I just wrote to him (in case he's not the author of this thread) via his blog to ask him what he didn't like about Fabric, and suggested he respond here.
Copyright of databases has on several occasions been overturned

See Feist V. Rural

"The constitutional requirement necessitates independent creation plus a modicum of creativity. Since facts do not owe their origin to an act of authorship, they are not original, and thus are not copyrightable. Although a compilation of facts may possess the requisite originality because the author typically chooses which facts to include, in what order to place them, and how to arrange the data so that readers may use them effectively, copyright protection extends only to those components of the work that are original to the author, not to the facts themselves. This fact/expression dichotomy severely limits the scope of protection in fact-based works."

Whether or not the street data is copyrightable in light of this decision is definitely sketchy; the tiles etc. clearly are since they have some modicum of creativity.

Look at all the commas!

Clojure has been ahead of the curve on these commas, of course. Commas (and semicolons) are considered whitespace. They're available to pretty up your code's presentation however you like. It's like Clojure is committing in advance not to need many syntax characters.

I like some of the new features but it's nothing that exceptional. I feel like they are afraid of shifting too much from the initial (great) product, to avoid losing the customers that will feel they're losing that sense of almost invisible client/service. It's an improvement but not really a fresh new Dropbox on the web.

" down to a tiny pill or tiny baggies of drugs. "

Is this for real? When did the TSA start doing drug searches? Can they effect arrests?

I'll be honest - I'm a little shocked that a supposedly "official" blogging site is writing like a half-tweaked 13 year old and is bragging about doing drug searches at a supposed check for weapons.

It's also pretty irresponsible to make claims about the scanning system like, " It is completely safe " - I suspect that "Blogger Bob Burns" neither has the background, nor the authority to make such claims (let alone the knowledge). About all he(?) should be doing is suggesting which certifying authority has provided a clean-bill-of-health on their scanners.

All in all the most disturbing thing I've read in a couple weeks.

I'll just assume that you have never done LSD.

If you have, then I assume that you failed to do any meaningful self observation which would have been more than identifying personal flaws.
LSD just tweaks one of the signaling systems in your brain. The resulting experience is highly subjective. I don't think it should be schedule 1 but it can harm some people as much as it helps others.
Seriously? People take too much acid, get real into drug culture and end up living in a bus down by the river. Over time psychedelics can erode the mind.

The Google bashing at the end makes no sense. On the one hand he mentions that Google have copied things from Apple. On the other he claims Google seem to think they don't need to change anything. Which is it?

It's pretty clear to me that each new version of Android takes inspiration from iOS (and vice-versa, not to mention things they've both seen in WebOS). I think it's great -- the competition is definitely driving both platforms forward. Methinks there is some prejudice at play if you can't acknowledge this.

Not at all actually. LSD seems to quite a safe drug, and I'm beginning to question why it is illegal. Alcohol on the other hand seems to be much more dangerous.

This graph of active dose to lethal dose ratio and dependence risk serves as a fairly good measure for the risk of various drugs in my opinion: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/a5/Drug_dan...

The AIS transmissions are VHF (162MHz) so they are fairly short range, although with high gain antennas you can extend it a bit (with a corner reflector I once had intermittent data from a ship 600nm away).
I haven't read the study, but given the attitudes towards alcoholism and addiction at the time, the tests wouldn't have followed up to see if the alcoholics were binging on psychedelics... which plenty of people did in that era.
>Does that happen because Haskell has significant whitespace?

You can do the same thing in Lisp and Scheme, where of course whitespace is not significant.

If you're asking if Haskell's significant whitespace somehow made it more probable that programmers would do it, the answer is, I do not know.
I find it very depressing that the US space program now has come down to have to produce ads like this...
Temporary insanity is viewed as dangerous. LSD is a particularly harsh substance, so on the scale of psychedelics... I would legalize it right before PCP.

Absolutely. Respect for the competitor and open acknowledgement where it's due. Also, Instapaper is a one man show, and this piece made me have greater respect for him .

#26 Hackers Love Mass Assignment (revised)
Into The Woods
Marco goes to some length in the most recent episode of his podcast Build & Analyze (http://5by5.tv/buildanalyze/67) to grapple with the reality of Readability as (to his mind) his first competitor with a design ethos that seems to be in direct competition with his own. It's fascinating stuff, especially from the perspective of a developer with relatively little formal background in design.
To quote the article: "To complicate matters further, LSD also acts at other receptors."

So LSD appears to interact with more than "one of the signaling systems in your brain."
Secret space plane in ordit for over a year -- nobody knows what it is doing.
This reminds me of Ben Horowitz's post "Lead Bullets":

The issue with their ideas was that we weren’t facing a market problem. The customers were buying; they just weren’t buying our product. This was not a time to pivot. So I said the same thing to every one of them: “There are no silver bullets for this, only lead bullets.” They did not want to hear that, but it made things clear: we had to build a better product. There was no other way out. No window, no hole, no escape hatch, no backdoor. We had to go through the front door and deal with the big, ugly guy blocking it. Lead bullets.

"But Google has — publicly, at least — always seemed to think that Android is the best at everything and its dominance everywhere is inevitable. I wonder: do the higher-ups at Google really not see the flaws in their products?

Wow. Cannot disagree more. The past year has seen Android 2.3, 3.0 & 4.0.

Google is changing at a faster pace than its competition.
Last year I've realized (mostly from reading some pretty cool books) that I still had a lot of implicit assumptions about how the world goes. To my surprise, I find myself leaning towards a soft form of conspiracy theory (or class war, if you will), of "us vs them".

To me this came from having access to a historical perspective. But the resulting shift was so subjective, so much like seeing the same things from a different perspective that I can no longer say with conviction that drugs like LSD could never do the same thing. The fact that a dose of a drug gives you no new information may not be so important, as long as it helps you rearrange the knowledge you already have.
Code duplication is an overhead. Not as bad as RTTI, but static memory footprint is still important in the embedded/systems world -- sometimes more so than runtime memory footprint!
I haven't thought about it that much, but I've noticed very high latency using IndexTank recently. Probably a proxying problem or something because it always reports a fast search time even when it isn't. It takes 10 seconds but says 0.02 seconds. You can't search comments at all. No date range support. No stemming.

It'd be cool if they outsourced it to someone like you who would put more time into it.
