Or the person holding the camera was shaking like mad to demonstrate the abilities of the algorithm. Artistically speaking, shake removal is also authenticity removal. But most times, personal videos are shot by people with no eye for framing and stability. And most times, artistic (and professionals) videos are shot with an eye toward these things.

I can't foresee a reason not to keep this feature as an option rather than enforcing it on all uploads.
Funny - I remember when one of our new Engineers needed a memory-copy method for our ARM embedded solution - he went to Linux source and got some library routine.

It faulted when I used it the 1st time. Fixed the bug (alignment of source), ran again and it faulted again.

So I spent 10 minutes writing a test - move 0-128 bytes from source buffer offset 0-128 to destination buffer offset 0-128. Simple, overkill right?

11 bugs later the damned memory copy thing worked. 11.

The next thing to ask is, What did I learn from that bug? What I learned is, accept NO CODE as bug-free, no matter the source, no matter what authoritative base it came from.

Other learning: why oh why don't CPU designers put a damned memory-copy instruction into the machine? We all need it, all the time, for every project and we all hack something together that works until it doesn't. Sigh.
Ah, thanks for pointing that out. It did seem a little spammy, but I was giving hir the benefit of the doubt.

Next time my spam-sense tingles, I'll check their posting history before deciding whether to reply or flag.
Your company, Suitey, spams craigslist.

While looking for an apt a few months ago, I'd come across postings several times a day matching the specific criteria I was looking for. They'd all look like decent opportunities, but upon further inspection they all turned out to be pointless links to your pointless service.

I was looking for 1brs with "union square" in the title. I can only guess at the total number of spammy posts you are responsible for on a daily basis.

It wasted a lot of my time and was very frustrating.

Shame on you.
I can't even get to it. Interested to know what this is about - for the past week I haven't been able to get to pages via my ipsd2 safari search - it goes straight back to the original search listing. I switch to "classic" mode and it's all OK.
Very interesting. The security features are very thorough.

Of course, until someone finds a vulnerability, or a way through the validator, or an exploit on an abstracted function.

Still, it's a good security model

I agree completely. It was more an observation that keeping important systems isolated is at least enough of a thing for attackers to be already trying to work around it; if anything, I'd take that as a sign that critical infrastructure that's not isolated is dangerously behind the times.

Can anyone specify the absolute minimum requirements I should be asking for if I'm looking for a dev Mac on craigslist or the like?

As a (mostly) web developer there's a good chance I'd build most of my app in HTML/CSS using something like PhoneGap and only do the final compile step on the Mac. A) Does that sound like a good plan? B) Does that impact significantly on the minimum system requirements?
yeah... write once, debug everywhere

edit: oh it's even in the article, how nice :)

Population density may explain the whole fabricated issue. Where medical care is hours away and expensive to reach, life expectancy drops. Surprise.

Also low-density population means smaller sample sizes thus larger error. Again, surprise.

I'm not on the side of thinking Google are doing anything malicious here, but worth pointing out that their paying Firefox money doesn't mean they wouldn't neccesarily want to see Firefox die.

They pay that money not as a charitable donation but because the deal makes them more in advertising than it costs. From a monetary point of view, of course it would be better for them if all that advertising came from Chrome, so they still make the money but they don't have to pay $300m because they already own the browser.

Not a lot of 80-yr-olds moving to the country, at least in Iowa. Mostly when folks get older, they move into the city with family or an apt or home.
Mozilla turn a significant profit through Google referrals, last time I looked. The 'splintered' browser market masks a fairly comfortable arrangement for both companies, as well as Opera. Don't assume a conspiracy where incompetence or poor fortune provides a better explanation - chances are the Gecko-optimised version you were loading had a minor bug, or there's a problem with your system. Perhaps you encountered some A/B testing gone wrong?
If you're signed in to a Google account already but your session is inactive, you might be asked to re-authenticate. If you're not signed in at all, you don't get asked.
Note, however, that client-side UA sniffing could result in different requests getting sent to the server, from which subsequent wackiness might ensue...
Firefox has SPDY support as of a version or two ago and uses SPDY on Google sites. I seem to that feature being on by default, even.
It would be easy to write a bot that signs up automatically through proxies. Even a security image wouldn't stop it— crack the easy ones, seamlessly outsource the hard ones to Mechanical Turk through their API.
Sometimes you want authentic value, and sometimes motion sickness isn't what you were aiming for in your video. This gives video makers more tools to express their vision.

Edit: also what's new here isn't the stabilization, it's that they will fix "rolling shutter" artifacts in each frame as well. Rolling shutter is something photographers generally dislike.
How is this different from a script with apt-get or yum? I understand there are some, but not that significant benefit. Did I miss something?
Excludes is an extreme view. Anybody with the wit to stand in line can get free healthcare at an emergency room or local hospital.

I value living in a place where I can work harder to get better things for my family. Or work less hard and coast, my choice.

Making money is not a sport or game in America. Its real, its important, its meaningful and it motivates millions of us to work hard and smart.

I can pull out my gold card and get to the head of the line for a heart transplant, sure. That's not a failure, thats one of the strengths of a capitalist/free market country. It can be cruel, but life is cruel and honestly there is no 'fair' way to ration such healthcare. If you tried, the 'black market' (read: free market) would and does compensate anyway.

The free market motivates me. Some hunky-dory view of the world as full of free services for everybody does not.
Yep surely agree with jnorthrop !!

It seems an article on Ars Technica has already compiled some defect of MySQL:

http://arstechnica.com/civis/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=92525

Another thing that reminds of PHP, the list of commands:

mysql mysql_client_test_embedded mysql_find_rows mysqlrepair mysql_tzinfo_to_sql
mysqlaccess mysql_config mysql_fix_extensions mysqlreport mysql_upgrade
mysqladmin mysql_convert_table_format mysql_fix_privilege_tables mysql_secure_installation mysql_waitpid
mysqlanalyze mysqld mysqlhotcopy mysql_setpermission mysql_zap
mysqlbinlog mysqld_multi mysqlimport mysqlshow
mysqlbug mysqld_safe mysql_install_db mysqlslap
mysqlcheck mysqldump mysqlmanager mysqltest
mysql_client_test mysqldumpslow mysqloptimize mysqltest_embedded

Why the hell show we want a 'mysqldumpslow'? Is it because mysqldump is fast but wrong? And why not mysql_dump?

I have started with MySQL for my first (php) website, and to me the database was just the natural storage, I had no idea of the problems, because I didn't know that a relational database is a particular well-defined mathematical object, which asserts truths about the "world" in a manner that makes it possible to model this world safely and ask questions about it. Then I used PostgreSQL at my previous work, and discovered it all, the hard way. And PostgreSQL has (almost) always been a reliable companion taking care of the most valuable asset: the Data. Then I switched job and have to use MySQL again. I live with it, it's fine, but the difference is not benign, and I sometime wonder if the NoSQL movement is not a partly a misunderstanding and should renamed NoMySQL: when using an unreliable datastore, it is certainly better to use one that is explicitly not reliable and do not force on you the relational model while, at the same time, not giving you its strengths.

Countries with free health care for everybody can still offer plenty of incentives for making money, I don't think anyone would argue the UK isn't a capitalist country, and if you came to live here I'm confident that the NHS wouldn't be enough to make you stop caring about wealth.

I'm not in favour of communism, but as far as I'm concerned, medical care should be considered a right not a priviledge - there's really no benefit to denying it for the poor.

(For the record, I fit into the group of people who could easily affordto go private with Bupa here in the UK, and I'm far happier paying more in taxes to subsidise the NHS.)
I'm not very familiar with how PhoneGap works, and how much it depends on you, but from the docs it seems you still need the classical toolchain.

But anyway, if you want to save yourself some hassle, find something that can run Lion. XCode 4 doesn't run on older OS (or at least not easily), and most current docs are aimed at it (I'm not even sure older XCode versions cover the current iOS versions).

So, you need at least something with a Core2Duo. Older Core Duo might work, I'm not sure. I have some old white Macbook (13" from 2009), who mostly does the job. Not blazing fast, but since I only use it for iOS development, it's enough.

ACTA Gets Killed
Once upon a time, I used to use http://lartc.org/wondershaper/ for that. I never found it worked very well for me though.
It could just be connection problems/wifi playing up/whatever, badly timed to coincide with the tests. I'm not sure this is much evidence really... Google previously have been all for an open and competitive browser market (part of the reason they started Chrome), they're not Microsoft in that regard, and I doubt they have some code somewhere along the lines of "if (!chrome) redirect_to_the_pentium_ii_in_the_basement();"

I have mixed feelings about this. When I first heard about the Pair social app, it was in the context of a discussion about social apps, and I never thought about Pair.com.

Since then though, about half the time I've seen or heard me tionof the new Pair app, I've had confusion about how Pair.com is suddenly a topic of conversation again.

For what it is worth, I used to be a Pair customer, but ditched them for Linode in search of better Wordpress price/performance.
The delegates are exactly what I factored out of ASIHTTPRequest when I made my own version. Good to see someone has taken the ball and ran with it.
You don't sound like a Buddhist, and you certainly aren't acting like one. You're acting like what a Christian would think a Buddhist would act like. Holy festival... that is not the language of a Buddhist. Nor would a real Buddhist blame someone else for how they feel, nor would they treat Buddha as if he were Jesus; Buddha is not a god to be worshiped.

If this upsets you, and you're really a Buddhist, then go meditate on why you're allowing your mind to make you feel this way and leave this guy alone. Trying acting less like what you think a Buddhist is and more like Buddha would. Buddha would not feel insulted by a cartoon of a Buddha, Buddha would probably laugh.
My pleasure. If you have any other questions about specific frameworks or nuances of UIKit don't hesitate to ask.

Ask HN: Solutions to stop the pop under plague?
I seems that for now the spammers are winning.
What could work to kill this annoyance?

Am I mistaken in assuming that browser makers don't know how to fight the new pop under window advertising technique? How about window dependencies graph, where if you switch tab context to a different URI and have not gave focus to the related window that was opened from the main window - Kill it without questions, and also refuse to save the cookies it gave you, Otherwise if user has visited the pop under page apply normal browser behavior?
> has a GDP greater than Denmark, Finland, Singapore and Ireland.

That says absolutely nothing. You'd need to look at it on a GDP per person basis. There all those countries you listed are far ahead of South Africa, in some cases by a factor of 10x.
> Many jobs have wearing a suit as a prerequisite. Would employers simply not hire anyone and close their doors if everyone refused to wear a suit?

That's my point. In a market that has many buyers and few sellers, the buyers do not get to set the price. So there would never be a scenario in which everyone would refuse to wear a suit. Creating hypotheticals in which every job applicant acts in tandem is a pointless endeavor. If the employer states that you have to show up at 8, wear a suit, have a degree, accept a certain rate of pay, and never leave before 6pm, you will do those things. If you don't, that's okay, somebody else will. Just like I can't set the price of the iPhone just because I don't like paying the full price. The day Apple has trouble selling iPhones then I might be able to negotiate.

> The issue is that the degree is socially harmful while being individually beneficial, according to your own arguments in favor of receiving one.

These are inferences that you are making. I do not think that formal education is harmful to society. The U.S. has the greatest higher education system in the world by a long, long, shot. I do not think it is wise for us to try to tear down from within one of our greatest competitive advantages. There is a reason that people from all over the world are fighting to get into our schools.

BTW, I find it kinda curious that you are railing so hard against higher ed. Was it before or after your third degree that you decided education is such a poor investment?
Everyone Has Been Hacked. Now What? [Hacking]
The genesis of the perfect programming language
The good news is its being very actively pro-actively fuzzed and fixed.

Worth looking at too: zeroVM http://zerovm.org/
I see similar errors very often. I use Google Chrome on OS X.

I also have a mobile broadband dongle (UK - T Mobile) which does weird and unpleasant things to the connection. (All images are proxied with poor quality versions, javascript is inserted into the page asking for key combos to improve image quality; all alt tags are re-worded, etc.)

I blame any sub-optimality on the shitty broadband from T Mobile and the weird proxies; then on overload from HN, then on errors I've made.
Another example: Apple's success is largely due to them caring about "fuzzy" stuff like visual appearance.

Mac OS X is essentially just *nix underneath, yet somehow AAPL has a market cap of > $500B, while Linux has approximately zero traction on the desktop (yes, I know that many here run Linux desktops, but you're outliers almost by definition).

Even if one defines "value" strictly in terms of dollars and sense, it's clear that paying attention to this stuff matters. A lot.
There where a few mis-swipes because of the way i was filming/holding the phone

Well, at least we're making progress and you're acknowledging the problem now.

Finally Gigaom is an Apple news site/blog not exactly the place one would go to get unbiased news/reports.

Grasping straws now?

The issue is widely documented (the GigaOM article contains sources). And the video is pretty self-evident anyway, unless you want to allege them of faking it.
Here's what I like:
1. Simple to use.
2. Easy on the eyes.
3. Actually useful app & it solves real problem.
4. Like go-pro page copy and how you place it under my resumes so it's always visible.

Do-better's IMO:
1. No way to contact you.
2. I'd make the "go-pro" button the same as "your resumes" & "sign out" but different bgcolor to stand out.
3. Filling just personal details & saving gives 500 error when viewing resume.
4. $9.99 is one-time or recurring?
5. No way to share my resume (no social/web2.0 buttons)

Keep pushing, don't give up!

EDIT: Just saw social buttons on the left... Wide monitor & it was out of my sight...

Have abused tc in the past to simulate high-latency remote dial-in connections while testing network equipment (netem delay ftw), but didn't realize that you could restrict by IP, thereby still being able to use the system for something other than dog-slow response.

"It's hardly a lesser burden than attending law school."

Internships are generally paid (If I remember correctly, some of those who've gone this route are long-term legal secretaries). Law school costs money and lots of it.
They have to actively protect their trademark. I would say it was shortsighted of Pair Networks to have chosen such a generic term in the first place. But having done so, they have no option but to legally and aggressively protect it or they may not be able to lay claim to it in the future. Pair should have known this and their advisors should have advised them of a probable lawsuit.

The boneheaded move for Pair Networks would be to sit back and let some other company hijack their brand and identification when they have legal recourse.
What's even more astonishing to me than the fact that programming applicants mess it up is the fact that when the problem is introduced to a programming forum or blog there will inevitably be commenters commenting with a solution, and that solution will be wrong. The only car analogy I came up with was a person hearing about someone putting on their spare tire, so they go out to do it on their own car from memory of the account, and they do it wrong, when the instructions were right in the glovebox.
