I remember an HP tape array running VxWorks crashing when a copy of Nessus would scan it. There was no patch for the issue at that stage. This was a tape array backing up some infrastructure that would handle the transactions of a big chunk of Europe's stock exchanges. It kind of left me with a bad impression of VxWorks, but it might just be HP's processes that was a mess at that stage.
There are 7 billion people on the planet. Most don't go to college. Heck, even of those who do, most don't work on anything interesting. The real trick is to get a lot more people working on problems that matter.

It took me a minute to digest this, but I see where the problem was. It's not exactly a finite number of parity bits, but a finite percentage of parity bits. The first step is to calculate the parity:data ratio needed to just barely overwhelm the effect of noise. Then to increase reliability you combine messages, costing no additional bits. Combining messages dilutes spikes in noise so that the parity is not overwhelmed, to an arbitrary certainty.

This also goes to show that the direction you approach a problem from makes a big difference.

It's easy to get the impression that you can't make efficient very-low-error codes by looking at the effect/cost of parity bits.

But it's also easy to realize that fusing messages can provide statistical certainty that noise levels don't spike above redundancy levels.

Also, in a completely different point:

Adding standard parity technically consumes arbitrarily many bits, but log(n) is a very small number. This has to be considered along with the fact that Shannon pulled a bit of a hat trick. To make an efficient code safer you have to increase the block size and therefore the latency. You can't get these improvements for free.

You obviously don't watch enough sitcoms if you didn't know that would work.

Ok, granted, I saw this and until I visited the US I didn't believe it would work (it wouldn't in most doors I've seen). But in the US, we tried, it opened every locked door in the house.

So yeah, the lesson to be learned from this is next time to at least try some hair brained ideas before calling someone. :)

Generate Barcode Image with Custom Size, Better Quality & Readability
Saaspose development team is proud to announce the new release of Saaspose.Barcode. Saaspose.Barcode API allows developers to customize barcode size and set the x and y dimensions of barcode as per your requirements. Configuring the size of barcode is an important aspect as it helps in scanning the image with more clarity. You can provide custom values for width and height of barcode image to generate images with better quality and readability. The term size and image resolution of the barcode is often used together as it determines the appearance of barcode image. Saaspose.Barcode allows you to configure the horizontal and vertical dimensions of the barcode image for better resolution. You can set resolution for the barcode image based on your printer resolution. You can customize barcode size and image resolution easily using the feature rich Saaspose.Barcode REST API. We have SDK and REST examples for Saaspose.Barcode REST API that help you utilize it for your applications in the cloud.

> Overall I’m really pleased that Sublime is flexible enough to allow this kind of customisation but it would be nice if the developers could spend some time on making it a more native Mac experience.

Sublime Text is cross-platform application and if you made it look more like a Mac application, then it would look too much out of place for Linux and Windows users.

I have also found node+jQuery an effective web crawling combination. In particular the cheerio library https://github.com/MatthewMueller/cheerio greatly simplifies data extraction. And as others have mentioned, the asynchronous nature of node is perfectly suited to crawling (as long as you take care not to accidentally DDOS the target site).

As for the images, hate to be a party pooper, but wasn't this thing supposed to be state of the art technology? What's with the shitty image quality?
Very droll :)

For the non-network engineers in the audience, it's worth documenting why this is funny:

Space will not be ours. The earth is not ours. The portion of earth that you and your neighbours inhabit is not yours, nor mine nor my neighbours. Your possessions are not yours. They are simply in your presence for a brief period of time and you cling to them, believing they are forever yours.

The illusion of ownership is a facet of much suffering of, and is caused by humans (and other sentient beings, for we are all animals) under the idea that they own things, collectively or individually. How can things external of a being be owned by it, when the being, as well as that it considers itself to own, are transient, impermanent and microscopic in the long game? Especially when we consider that this illusion causes suffering to ourselves (through loss) and others (through the opportunity to grasp that which is denied).
VxWorks is used pretty extensively in space and defense contracting. The list in wikipedia is a pretty small sublist. It's also often used as a wrapper for custom bootroms.
The devs already go to great lengths to respect each platform's idiosyncraties. The only thing lacking is a default visual theme per system.

EBay Launches Instant Gratification: eBay Now

Perhaps "Author makes ST2 look like any other OSX application because they seem to hate anything they're not used to."
I don't think that is the point at all. His own projects are so important to him that unless someone offers him $1,000 per hour to work for them, it isn't worth his time. He isn't trying to get new business: he's trying to keep business away, unless it's so lucrative ($10,000 for 1 days work) that it's nonsensical not to take it.

You could still probably do a MITM attack using ARP poisoning or something of the like (IE redirect all traffic through one machine), if there is the ability to access other machines on the network.
I fell over that sentence as well. I have an issue with the money obsession-over-everything which seems to drip from the US on the world. Money is nice, but if it's a focus, it's a poison often. It changes you and people forget they have this one chance at life when making their life all about money. You won't enjoy it so much (or at all) if your mind's primary focus is making it; it's (from experience with millionaires) very hard to 'de-learn' it. There is a good chance you'll be focused on money the rest of your life and thinking you like it while other people perceive you as a bitter old fool.

Anyway; there are many things you 'could be off' to and don't because you choose something else. And yes, companies (your own or others) need to make money; I see that it does, and you'll get rich if you deliver good stuff and watch your bottom line (which HN doesn't like, I know; you still should). It might take a bit longer, but your success rate will be higher. Don't think of what you could've or should've, focus on what you love and perfect it, it'll come.
To the martians, of course. Don't you think they will have tax payer concerns like the rest of us? why do you think they have not visited us in such a long time. :)

How to Setup WordPress After Installation – The 7 Things You Should Do Everytime
Every time I say I want to see two branches side-by-side without invoking the VCS, someone says "well, here's a tool that invokes the VCS to do that!" Which shows a lack of reading comprehension.

I'm guessing you check out a branch to a particular directory, and another branch to a different directory, then do a compare?

You could create a directory, stash you uncommitted files, then checkout the branch ad do a recursive copy to the directory you want to do the compare in. Then rinse and repeat for the next branch. After this checkout the original branch you were working in and retrieve the stash.

You could easily script this.
Are we talking about $X000/hr for a single finance/consulting professional's time? That rate seems rather unbelievable, but maybe only senior folk in the top-tier firms get to charge that? Are market conditions in finance/consulting just that skewed towards the suppliers?
Most of the research to be made on extraterrestrial colonization can be done in the Moon for much cheaper.

The terraforming of Mars is also controversial at this point, while we still want to make sure about possible past (or present) life in Mars, so we won't export bacteria to Mars any time soon. We are pretty sure the Moon is devoid of biological life so the first colonies would be placed there.

Honestly the only point of sending people to Mars now would be to say "first!" pretty much as it happened when we first landed in the Moon to not come back in many decades.
How To Make Windows Xp Genuine
I am also 18 and I am just starting now. I had to test drive a few different languages until I found what I am really passionate about (developing iOS apps). I am still in the VERY early stages but I know that with A LOT of hard work, determination, and time I will succeed.
Currently, I am pushing to get my own Mac (will hopefully happen within the next few days actually). I have a nice PC, but it doesn't suit my needs as an aspiring iOS developer, so I am doing my best to trade my PC for a Mac.

Anyway, this article is exactly how I feel. I could have started much earlier and I probably would have been much more advanced than I am now. The fact is, I wasn't passionate back then, and now I am.

Sam, I really like your branding for Cheddar, and you have a consistency about your personal brand as well. And you're stirring the pot dude! That counts for something.

Personally, I think the $1000/hr isn't too much, especially if someone is getting branding advice from you.

Good luck!

Thanks a lot. Do you maybe know any iPhone app that could do the same?
I don't like the singular they. I find it far more annoying than the generic he or the construct of he or she.

The generic he actually has an interesting history. In Old English, the word wifman (-> woman) is a masculine noun and wif (-> wife) is neuter. This is because man though meaning basically "human" is a masculine noun so any compound of -man is also masculine. If one wants to specify a male man in Old English one either uses wer (counterpart to wif, survives in werewolf, which is why I joke that all werewolves are by definition male) or wapman which is the counterpart of wifman.

This led to an interesting problem. If you are talking about a specific woman and have perfect gender agreement, then "he" has to be used to refer to "woman." That makes things hard to read and so Old English has a rule which is that you ignore the grammatical gender of the word when you refer to a specific person. If we applied this to modern English we'd have amazing constructs like:

"I went to the store and the woman at the cash register told me that I needed to give her an extra $5."

vs

"Any woman thinking about getting married should make sure that he has some level of financial independence first."

The first is specific while the second is generic. He in the second refers to "any woman" not her prospective spouse!

Similarly "My wife says she isn't up to coming to the party this weekend" but "A wife today still finds it has to do a majority of the housework."

I don't like mixing numbers though. If "they" is an acceptable singular why isn't "it's" an acceptable possessive?

No, they are unnecessary, if those who are in power want it to happen, they will find a way, regardless of our actions.
I was thinking exactly the same thing, kind of embarassed because it feels 'spoiled' (not the right word but can't find any better). Glad I'm not alone on this. My hopes are that this is simply my lack of understanding and that it's simply night there now (does it work like that?), or that not all systems are up and running yet.

I'm very surprised nobody mentioned the devastating impact of GoPro on the environment. Every single one of those cameras is going to end up in landfills. If we're lucky. Most likely the plastic, metal, and toxic battery trash will end up on slopes, in the wilderness, or in the ocean. Ironic and disappointing for a company that pretends to celebrate the outdoors.

This is neat, but I think these days if you're going to use a grid it might as well be responsive. For example this is a good responsive grid generator: http://gridpak.com/

Or you could always use Bootstrap.

Nobody in the media or in NASA claimed that the space belongs to one country (i.e. US). The author is simply inventing an issue to promote some kumbaya BS. No country invests in space exploration if there is no direct benefit to that country first.
Well if demand can sustain the price on a daily basis then good luck to him/her ... and I'm very jealous.

Work like this would tend to be ad-hoc, not 9-5, and the work he's received so far (in his example) would seem more like what an architect might charge to make a drawing or two.

So the price seems entirely fair if the skills really are specialist enough to demand it.
Even moderation is dangerous if the moderates let the extremists take over society (rise of Nazi Germany). The converse is also true (inaction of France/England on the rise of Nazi Germany).

Everything is dangerous.

Very well put. And to complement your point, when we eventually meet extra-terrestrials who also subscribe to the illusion that space can be owned, and that it is theirs, we will have come full circle. Might will likely be the determinant of the outcome, and at that point I suppose we'll all have to root for humanity. Sadly, the battle of the species and of domination will continue as it always has.

Five things you didn't know the web could do
Their argument: Win8 has lots of places that are touch optimized, therefore they lay focus on a pointer device/keyboard being shipped with it in order to get around those places. The first point can clearly be seen when you actually take a look at Win8, at least the x86 variety - the ARM versions remains yet to be seen as far as I know. What they infer from it seems logical to me.

Your argument: This article is crap, all other approaches are toys, don't criticize my favorite unreleased gadget please.

Yeah.

Here in Portugal they're like that nowadays; I think you still have to make a phone call every month or so, but I imagine that's to cut down on abandoned phones.

That said, I can't imagine the carriers being too happy about having clients like me, who only charge the phone with $10 every three months ;)

I started early (like 8 or 10), but the velocity of my learning curve was very low back then. That's the point I want to make (apart from the you-are-never-too-late point others have made already): at 18, your learning skills are so much better that you'll catch up quite well.

The above is the general case, I think, for learning to code. If you're good at chess, sports, whatever, and you're lucky, you'll get help that works as an 'external learning curve velocity enhancer'. The same thing would account for young programmers with proper guidance, but the matter of fact is: most of us didn't have that (I even didn't have internet, I had to get books from the library and cherished a floppy disk containing a plethora of technical game programming articles).

I also see this in a different field I'm active in, as a volunteer at the local life saving / swimming club. Those that start at 6 take like 8-10 years to learn most of the material. Those that come in at 16 or 18 can catch up in a year or two, whilst well motivated.
Even still you're overestimating the science education -- or even the willingness to believe the science education they did receive is credible -- of modern society.

Lots of people conceive of ways in which a perpetual motion machine might work - it's why so many people have tried to patent them that the US Patent Office has a specific ban on perpetual motion patents. They don't work, of course, but it tends to require a deeper level of knowlege to figure out why exactly (for instance) any of the magnetic perpetual motion machines won't work than it does to conceive them in the first place.
Don't clap too long, NASA has long been on the funding chopping block, and there are far too many who would like to see it eliminated completely. They don't care that they are putting vehicles on Mars. They're too myopic to even think about what the future might look like.

2.5 billion dollars to put Curiosity on Mars. That's is a little more than double of what NBC paid to air the Olympics[1]. Imagine what they could do if we doubled their budget from half a percent of the federal budget[2] to 1%.
