So what does this means is if someone compromise their GPG key (more or less easy) and get his passphrase (not difficult) they can sign all kinds of commits and make it look like he did it. Great

my guess is that the brain does something like PCA, but then over-emphasizes the unusual components (probably because that's what makes each face distinct).

in other words, the brain (either hard-wired or learnt) has an "average" face that it uses as a reference. when it has to handle a new face it doesn't "store" the whole face, but only the difference between the new and the average. so what much of your brain deals with is not "the face" but "differences of that particular face from the average".

and somehow (see other replies) this illusion is able to connect that up to your conscious mind without the intermediate step that pads it back out by "adding in" the average.
It might not be a very good example, but OpenBSD appeared after Theo de Raadt had a fight with the NetBSD team. By the way OpenSSH is developed by the OpenBSD Project.

You think NSA or GCHQ[1] don't have the knowledge to implement an efficient bitcoin machine? You think they don't have the money? You think they don't already have significant computing power?

Or are you suggesting they'd be hampered by legal oversight issues?

[1] GCHQ probably have the most powerful computing facility in Europe. That puts them amongst the most powerful computing centres world wide.

What part of "integrated circuit paradigm" doesn't apply to memristors or three-dimensional molecular computing?

I ask because HP's Williams seems to say that memristors are firmly in the "integrated circuit paradigm", but maybe he means something different than you do.

Please, bring me someone who actually had trouble with those instructions, and not because they freaked out at the first sign of a command line. They must have actually read them, including the expandable bits, made a serious effort to follow them, and failed.
I'm reminded of a comic that pointed out the best way to get an answer to a "newbie" question on the internet. Ask the question, and have a friend give you the wrong answer, publicly. They will then be derided and scorned, while providing you with the correct answer.

It's sad that this is often what it takes to get an answer out of jaded people with experience - it's even more sad that the scorn is integral to the experience.
Thank god! Finally companies will start optimizing their software again.

In terms of comparing clock speed with, say, the brain: isn't it more the parallelization that we're lacking, rather than the speed? In other words lets say we could parallelize a computer network as complicated as the brain... with current processor speeds, couldn't we already re-create effective human intelligence?

I guess I mean to suggest it's the parallelization/inter-connectiviy and algorithmic challenge rather than the speed challenge that has so far avoided the singularity.

Curious if others agree?
This is why you protect it with a passphrase, which SSH asks you to do by default. Choose a good passphrase, it's encrypted on disk, and decrypted only as needed.

I'll bite. Investors don't value early stage companies the same way they value mature companies - for example, a public utility company serves a defined population in a defined geographic region, and operates at some predictable margin. Their value is simply the net present value of future distribution to investors (in the form of dividends, stock buybacks, or share price appreciation). They can still be good investments if the risk/return profile looks good.

Contrast this with early stage companies (which is what we're talking about here). VCs don't care as much if a company has a proven business model - what they're looking for is GROWTH opportunity. The opportunity to completely disrupt a huge market or invent a new one. While profitable companies have better odds of surviving long enough to get to that point, they may not be the best investments in the end.

To give you a concrete example of how this could affect investor decision making. Let's say that the total opportunity for Source Code Management solutions is $2bn/year in corporate spending (completely making this number up) - even if GitHub captures 100% of this market, which they won't, they're capped at $2bn/year in revenue, unless they figure out another way to make money. Once they're done paying the sales guys, engineers, and otherwise supporting operations, they make maybe $500mm/year in profit. With a standard P/E multiple, they'd be worth something like $5-$10bn.

Pinterest, on the other hand, has the potential to be the "facebook of online shopping" to amazon's "google of online shopping". If people really engage with pinterest, and they spend a lot of time on the site, and they're more likely to buy stuff when they're looking at what their friends like and are buying, then it could be worth a lot more than that. The point is, while they don't yet have predictable revenues or earnings, their potential market (online shopping) is so much bigger than github's, that it's possible to justify a high valuation based on growth potential.

I'm not saying I buy the Pinterest hype. I'm just saying that there are criteria beyond current profitability and cash flow on which one can value an early stage business.

(1) I don't think that digital ads are less effective than old TV and Newspaper advertising. In the bad old days, nobody could measure the impact of advertising and people assumed ads were worth more than they are.

Once it became possible to measure the effectiveness of transactional ads online, it became a lot harder to justify the cost of display ads.

The advertising apocalypse won't just affect the internet, it will affect traditional media. On the few cases where I watch cable or OTA TV I'm shocked that the ads are 5-10% relevant to me -- it seems like much of the industry is kept alive by ambulance-chasing lawyers, credit repair services and the medicare economy.

(2) Facebook has other ways to make money, and in a pinch, they'll develop them -- it's believable that they could increase revenue 2-3x in a year or two if they really had to... Largely because they haven't had intense pressure to increase revenue. Facebook Credits, for instance, could be a gold mine if you could buy more things with them.

I gently disagree with your post.

But I would agree that the meta anguish[1] that some forums go through is often driven by people who just don't know any better and who probably shouldn't be given any power.

[1] they start small and really good; they get popular; someone decides that something must be done; there are long and bitter threads about moderation; mods get appointed; and then there's a slew of stickied threads and rules and closed threads and bizarre restriction.

It's not an attempt to reason with terrorists. It's way smarter than that. It's an attempt to undercut the entire reason they are doing this. The terrorists are looking to build public awareness, sympathy, and support for their actions against the evil nasty scientists playing with the Things Man Was Not Meant To Know. This is an attempt to humanize the scientists, put their work in context, and reframe the narrative from Heroic Radicals Save Humanity From Cackling Evil Scientists to Idiotic Bookburning Knowledge-Hating Radicals Shoot Selves In Foot and Kill Poor People. It's attacking the foundation of the terrorism instead of getting distracted with the building on top.

As someone that works on Rails projects almost all of the time, no, for a few different reasons.

1. Coda (1+2) are geared towards one file = one file output to preview. Obviously Rails doesn't work this way.

2. Starting a project from the CLI, I often open it in Sublime 2, TM, etc from the same window. I don't see the value of adding all my settings for project folders, remote servers and git details a second time in Coda, when they're all in the folder already. I deploy everything on Heroku and store them on Github.

3. Haml, Scss and Coffeescript largely eliminate the need for validation. If your code is wrong, they won't compile it.

4. Keyboard Shortcuts. I use Sublime on a MBA without a mouse or trackpad most of the time. I much prefer working through shortcuts than I do by clicking on stuff, which the majority of the Coda UI is geared towards.

5. Quick Open/Peepopen. I saw nothing about Coda 2 having this. It's absolutely necessary IMO. All text editors should follow the same behaviour as Peepopen, something that Chocolat doesn't do (but it should).

Coda is a great editor for designers and for lightweight PHP devs, but I don't see it's value for people who spend all day looking at code.

I apologise for re-hashing old arguments, I haven't been following them, and I'd be interested to read rebuttals if you know where they are.

I'm not sure that evidence of trading is evidence of non-hoarding. It's only 0.5% of the total number of bitcoins out there that are traded daily. Is that a lot? I'm not sure, but I don't think we can compare it to the number of coins created daily and draw conclusions from that.

Some people are hoarding them. A lot of them. Or at least they claim to be.
I know the email thing is a put off but if it's any consolation, the email isn't (immediately) confirmed, nor is the password. Just use a dummy email (try yopmail), you can probably change it later.

Never actually heard of this company before but they seem to be playing in a great space IMHO. It seems to be a combination of Cloudflare, Pingdom, Akamiai and New Relic. And for many sites having to have accounts with them all is a hassle.

Unfortunately, he lacked basic marketing strategy. Before determining what platform to be on (and the Internet and social media is not all Facebook) you need to understand your audience and your objectives. For a traditional B2B industry, Facebook is not the first place to be (let alone a page per product line). If he wanted to be on social media (and first getting his web presence in order should be priority), LinkedIn is a much better place to be. But, more importantly, he should have hired a marketing strategist (a real one, not some "guru" kid who knows how to use Facebook but someone who understands marketing fundamentals) to work
I disagree with you on sheet music vs tab. GOOD tab is more informative than sheet music. Specifying which string to play a note on isn't something sheet music is very good at, and from a tonal perspective, it _matters_. A 4th string 5th fret "A" on a bass is VERY different from the same note played on an open 3rd string, for instance.

We make our workplace and compensation such that nobody would want to leave. We have almost no turnover.

The only reason you leave is because you think you could do better or make more money. As it stands, people here would rather see Lincoln Loop do better and make more money (which directly benefits them) than try to start their own company.
One trouble with advertising is that narcissism drives certain people and organizations to pay way too much for it.

If you own a small business, for instance, it's incredibly gratifying to hear ads for your business on the radio. It makes you feel good about yourself. It makes it hard to make a rational calculation that spending $X on ads brings in $Y more profit, and that $Y > $X. Even if you're rational, there's some other guy who's not who is going to drive up rates.

Many big companies spend heavily, even buy TV networks, so they can bombard the public with "feel good" messages that don't have a clear role in a conversion funnel. For instance, GE bought NBC and you can't go five minutes without seeing some ad trying to convince people that GE is this great innovative company trying to save the Earth -- although generally the products involved aren't for retail sale and the only rational purpose for these ads, at best, is an effort to influence the political climate. What's the ROI on that?

Google ads have started to puncture this bubble because once you have advertising that's measurable, it's hard to justify the expense for something that's not.
If they angle was different you could see the really huge monitors they'll have at the front of the room, so there's that at least. At least I assume so, the other mission control rooms I've been in have them and they have less people than this one.
That's fair. I have heard of that device but did not realize that it had an app store.

I think Apple's (correctly) viewed as the company who "makes it work" with the right combination of technology that is cutting edge enough, but integrated superbly. When they are really out on the leading edge, the results are mixed (e.g. Newton), although that may have changed with greater vertical integration and supply logistics in recent years.

On that level, though, how "entirely new" does something have to be before it gets that stamp. If a given company invents something but doesn't bring it out of beta, and another company becomes known for commercializing it and bringing it to millions, who gets / deserves the most credit?

> Evidence shows people are not hoarding the coins: every day, ... This is six times the number of coins created daily (7 thousands).

That's not very convincing. A better comparison evidence would compare the daily exchange to the total inventory.

However, the real question is more granular. If we look at #exchanges/age for each bitcoin, what do we find?

I'd expect to find that some bitcoins have higher turn-over than others even if there's no hoarding, but what fraction have never been traded, or have been traded less than 3 times?
Calories in, calories out is a valid model. It's just not a very useful one. The reason that some foods are better than others even though they have the same number of calories is that some foods give you the feeling of being full, which causes you to eat fewer calories later (e.g. protein). Or some foods might cause you to feel fatigued, causing you to burn fewer calories later (sugar crash). But don't kid yourself, if it's a given that you eat X calories and burn/lose Y calories, then you'll gain weight proportional to X-Y. Choose foods that make it easy to keep that number close to zero.
If people are spending their money in fear of a crash then hoarding is not bitcoin's main problem.

I don't know the solution to bitcoin's deflation, but IMO it's still a problem.

Yes. Its worth noting that the '69 room looks heavily purpose-built, designed so that most people can look over their own workstations at some common fixed displays (TV, clock, binary lights, etc.) and also it has a (soundproofed?) glass box, which I guess is for the media.

Nowdays most of this really isn't necessary of course. The media can watch the same screens from a different room and the workers can share the same view on different computers and work in pretty much any room large enough to fit them all. It is still somehow important though to have everyone in the same room (mission control still isn't separate people in their own backyards connected over the internet)....

people have been saying that for years too. and they are always wrong. there are two things you are not considering: 1) that web browser or tablet still has to connect to a server that does the real work of the application and 2) the CPU needs of speech recognition, computer vision, and search are limitless. you seem to admit that when you say "they'll always have machines" but it's not "they" it's everyone. and FYI the chip industry has focused on efficiency since around 2000. the Atom line and ARM are not accidents.

Different people mean different things by the BA/DS distinction. But I've seen a team of 15 people with SAS experience try to get into machine learning applications, and they are making less progress than I would expect from a single good ML practitioner (with R or Python experience).

This is just an anecdote... And Perhaps some people make the BA/DS distinction so this isn't the relevant comparison. But the returns to smart people and sharp tools is astounding.

"Lean startup" has been great but it also had its side effects - lots of people automatically assumed it without knowing what it meant and how to apply to a particular company.
