I am a review blog. I am trying to show some quality products review, I will help you to take a right decision when you are very confuse to choose a product to buy. You Must Should Read Me Before Buying or Using Something.
It would probably the same as posting to online forums like this one. Most of the time, the Secret Service doesn't show up at your house to investigate something you say, but it does happen, so you self-censor accordingly.
If I don't care about watching it live, can I just get the recording in a torrent?
edit: original poster was suggesting using a ssh -D SOCKS method instead. He deleted his comment, this was my reply:

This method does not work. You cannot get Flash to go through a HTTP or SOCKS proxy on Mountain Lion.

The very reason that VPNs "tie in at a fairly low level on the network stack" is why my method works.

I know this won't be popular but is it actually a right to watch the Olympics live?

Like movies in theaters I just ignore the hype and wait six months for either redbox or netflix to get it.
Flash isn't a protocol. Certainly if they're streaming over HTTP (or TLS) it will go through a proxy (or at least it does everywhere else, I don't have OS X). What specifically are they doing that a "ssh -D" wouldn't handle?
You actually can, but it's quite complicated. I wrote a post on how to do it using linux a long time ago: http://coderrr.wordpress.com/2009/07/29/how-to-force-flash-o...

I had a similar setup working with OSX using ipfw and natd. Really complex and disgusting setup though IMO. Using a VPN is so much cleaner.
Hey, thanks. :)

The problem with evangelizing the Right Way is that the benefits tend to come later; if you haven't experienced the pain of dealing with the Wrong Way's fallout once it hits critical mass, it seems easy to brush off. "SQL injection? Pfft, no one cares enough to attack my site." "Transactions? I only write one or two rows at a time anyway." "Templates? What's wrong with string formatting?"

Our profession is a bit lacking in context. Nobody believes the lessons of others. (Granted, we're so crazy that half the time we learn the wrong lessons.)

Still a young discipline, though. Maybe we'll grow out of it.
I think it's more accurate to say that breakthroughs come from periods of intense work & study interspersed with relaxation. If you're only relaxed, you're basically a slacker, one of those dudes who never gets off the couch. But if you're only working, you're just a grind. It's when you put them together - learning everything you can about a topic, or working like crazy to put something together, and then relaxing and letting your brain process it all - that you get creativity.

FWIW, the "West Coast work environment" isn't all ping pong and video games either. It's ping pong and video games interspersed with very hard, intense sprints where products get built.
Actually you could use x-mixed-replace with other content-types like text/html. I don't know if it still works with modern browser but you should be able to put the counter in an iframe.
This is really interesting. I'm quite curious what they've left out of their reduced subset of javascript, but unfortunately I don't have the time to dig in right now.

Has anyone else taken a tour through their codebase?

Actually, what the hell, I'll download haskell, run their interpreter, and see about getting the underscore.js test suite to run.

You're correct HTTP connections over flash will use HTTP proxy settings. The problem is many sites don't stream over HTTP, they use some custom streaming protocol using raw flash sockets. And these do not respect SOCKS proxy settings.
Thank you!

I definitely want to track more things too, would like to do so without making the app too complicated or feel like work.

That's really useful to know that adding a note isn't clear and I'll add deleting entries to the next version.
I wonder if folks doing this are also the same ones complaining about people stealing apps and torrenting movies? There's no real difference.
Exponential CPU growth rates are factored into cryptographic protocols. As long as growth rates don't become super-exponential they're safe.
Also would be nice to not have to install the underlying apps in /Applications.

I still prefer $HOME/Applications for most things since then I can just rsync things around as needed.
Wolfram Alpha does solve some of them. It seems easy to detect the type of question and manually implement a way to parse each.

Thanks for asking. First, our main focus is on making something more usable for people. We also think captchas are only part of the solution and should be employed with other things (rate limiting, keyword filtering, etc)

That being said, we don't just ignore security. There are a lot of captcha alternatives out there that survive on just obscurity, if they were widely adopted, they wouldn't take much to get around (like a slide to unlock captcha). We analyze mouse movement and other behavior, to avoid this.

To test our algorithms, we write our own bots to break our game (as well as working with the AI lab at the university of michigan) and use that data in our machine learning algorithms. We're always tweaking the bot to see how we can beat it and then looking for new features from the data that we can use.

The main point being, that as people do write bots, we can learn from that and incorporate it. We can also adjust the threshold. Some of our customers care much more about usability and just want a minimum level of protection, other's want the threshold a little higher and accept the risk that humans might fail more often.
it sounds like you're reading a lot more into the piece than was really there.
Ok got an Android device and tested my app. While it is a relatively simple app every feature worked perfectly on Android 2.3. Will submit to the app store tomorrow and see the results. Something that really stood out: running the app on the device was unbelievably easy compared to iOS's provising profiles, bundle IDs etc etc.

I'm not surprised that this is a research topic but compared to all the other applications, I still think this will take much longer to get running reliably.

They are working on centered, pre-registered faces and stationary cameras. Once you add low-quality sensor that moves with the head (introducing huge amounts of motion blur to the image), and rich, real-world scenes full of other distractors, the technology will fall apart.

I'm certain we'll get hacked up implementations that work half the time if you keep perfectly still for some of the very basic and easy to tell emotions such as happy and sad, but it will mostly be a disfunctional joke for a long time. Time will tell!
The world needs all sorts of people and jobs filled. Just because someone grows up privileged doesn't mean the upper echelons are their birthright. Rich parents and family are idiots for imposing their own entitlement complexes on others, instead of just letting them find their own path in life.
#1: fair, but when was the last time you had to install mod_php outside of a local development environment? Ever come across commodity hosting that didn't have apache + mod_php?

#2: also fair, however Wordpress and Drupal are by far the most popular open source CMS's on the planet, despite this apparent handicap. If # of websites is your metric, what would be the closest competitor written in another language? Plone?

#3: also fair, no rebuttal.

10 Powerful Tips For Generating Great Ideas
This is great, thanks for sharing. I've tried using daytum and askmeevery.com to achieve similar QS tracking, but for some reason neither really resonated.

I think you've really hit on something with the push notifications. AskMeEvery uses scheduling along with SMS and email to achieve something similar, but ultimately their tracking wasn't as robust as I would have liked.

I agree with dchuk in that the real power here has to do with your ability to turn raw data into true insights on trends and what affects a person's mood.

I saw you plan to make the data available to users over time. When you do so, it might be cool to also add some kind of data analysis forum or outlet where users can share the tools they've created to analyze their moods over time.

I'd also love to create custom categories or fields that I can check off so that when the app pings me, I answer something like Overall Mood: ____ Food:_____ Idea: ____ or something to that effect. This could also work with the tagging feature someone mentioned.

Thanks again for the share. I'm looking forward to getting my first ping and putting this app to work.

I'm unfortunate enough to live on the East Coast and only get In-N-Out goodness rarely (I've had Shake Shack in NYC way more). I'd love it if they started spreading out this way!
Agreed. That's something I love about free-lancing and working on my own projects. I can fine-tune the working/relaxing balance to a value that's nearly optimal.
I really wish I could just subscribe to iPlayer. I don't want to subscribe to a cable or satellite service that I wouldn't use (and then pay extra for BBC channels), and I like a lot of their content. I'd gladly pay the BBC money for easy, legal online access to it.
I've done this for years. When I lived in Washington (state), the channels would periodically relocate themselves, so I had to rescan about once a month. It was also pretty frustrating for the channels to be things like 38.4. I got the feeling the cable company did that on purpose to try and make the experience as frustrating as they could.
"Samsung is known to have demanded 2.4% of Apple's sales as a royalty for its wireless SEPs. That figure showed up in an Italian court ruling and was mentioned in open court in The Hague, Netherlands, by Apple's Dutch counsel."

2.4% of $650-$850 (Retail range of Unlocked iPhone 4S) is around $16-$20 per device. Quad-band 3G UMTS modems retail as low as $13 in lots of 1000. That's a full modem not just the UMTS chipset. And trust me Apple is not buying chipsets retail or in lots of 1000.

Typekit gets you Proxima Nova as part of their package among others fonts. It's not bad, but for something like email, it may be helpful to use the standard stack of fonts.

My app sends emails (not a competitor). The interface uses proxima nova, but the email rendering is generally in an iframe with default sans-serif or serif font-faces.

If you use sans-serif as the first font-face that will default to Helvetica on Macs and Arial on Windows.

I put this on the IOC more than NBC. World sporting organizations like IOC and FIFA (hell, let's throw in the NCAA while we are at it) have sold their souls. It's just plain sad how corrupt and counter to their mission they have become.
That's what I was thinking. Originally reCAPTCHA had the control word be a scan as well, which meant that an attacker had to beat their OCR. Now that the control word is computer generated, the system has devolved into a regular CAPTCHA that further asks humans for recognition task work.

This version no longer advances OCR algorithms, but does provide cheap exception handling. I don't know when or why the change was made, but obsolescence is at the top of my mind. Either they've ran out of unrecognized words, or adversaries have beaten their OCR. Either way, it seems we're back to 2005.

edit: That said, Luis von Ahn mentioned that Google is experimenting with other image processing tasks, so there's hope yet.
How to get started programming?
Programmers sought for tropical hackathon
Just seems like someone trying to make a story out of nothing to me. I'm enjoying watching the German men in their gymnastics routine and this women's weight lifting is pretty cool. But I wouldn't have watched it this morning or afternoon live on any device. Sunny Saturdays are not meant for watching television.
It's not so much a reduced subset as a kernel language: the full ECMAScript Edition 5 language can be translated down to the kernel language, so in principle they can actually model the behavior of any program that the language defined by the standard admits.

There have been a few attempts to formalize the semantics of JS, but the lambdaJS approach is the most practical: by factoring out the incidental details (the "syntactic sugar") as a translation ("desugaring") to a kernel language, any work you do on the formal semantics of the language only has to focus on the smaller kernel.

This is also a really practical way to approach building tools for JS, like static analysis: if you design a single desugaring pass as a translation, then you can build a whole bunch of tools on the kernel language. Same idea roughly as the standard compilers approach of translating to an IR.
Got decent furniture, got the roommate to get his own apartment and I am sprucing up the abode in general so that it looks like a person actually lives here, rather than inhabits the space. Using brighter colors that are outside of my usual blacks and browns. This is all very normal stuff for other people, I suppose, but its something I never really thought about. I wasn't paying attention to my surroundings much. As it stands right now, I wouldn't be ashamed to invite people over for an evening, whereas before, I kept my door shut so people didn't see the mess.

I'm making an effort to be more sociable, which is difficult. I'm middle-aged and haven't dated or had a relationship since high school and so I've got some real hurdles to overcome there. That part may be impossible to overcome, but I'm trying it, slowly.

The very affectionate cat I've had for a couple of years helps, too. A pet forces you to focus on something other than your own misery. Plus, it's hard to have a suck day when the cat is standing on your chest, headbutting you in the chin or trying to eat your hand while you type.

This isn't necessarily the answer for everyone. It may only be me. I do know that a year ago I was very miserable, felt worthless and dead inside, and now I don't feel like that anymore.

I was being sarcastic. I was parroting what I was seeing in the comments of a different story at the time.

I would not be surprised if the 3 net upvotes I got were due to people not appreciating the sarcasm and just being stupid.
Not only true for web dev, true for all software related stuff. I listened to a podcast of a bunch of conferences held in the 90s about software. The most clever guy of the bunch did say something that stroke me as very true and very important, but so big and so scary that no one seem to see it: the simple fact that we have absolutely no idea about what the object "software" really is.

We know what are cars pretty well, and spaceships too. We know how they work, how to build them so they don't break easy, how to check for their health, etc.

But we have no firm grasp on software, we have no (economically sustainable) way to build them rationally and safely. Bugs are piling and the more we remove the more they are. No widely accepted method allow us to build software that has a quantifiable guarantee to work as planned under a fixed approximation interval. Etc. We programmers know that. Software development is at alchemy (magic) stage.

Funilly, this guy did specially point at OOP, saying that this was adding even more uncertainty to the mess. All that is well explained in SICP, and FP might be one of the strings we should pull to us out of the dark ages of software engineering. IMO.
It's obviously not a fundamental human right to have access to Olympic programming. However the way in which they delay programming and restrict access seems manipulative which I file under unethical.

Seems like it would be fairly easy to parse many of these questions automatically. The only reason they work is probably that they're not widely used enough for spammers to care about.
Canadian ISPs have effectively a monopoly. Competition is nearly nonexistant.[1]

The CRTC, which fills the "job of regulating and supervising the broadcasting and telecommunications systems in Canada". The execs of ISPs retire and join the CRTC[2], which allows monopoly (and corruption) to grow. [3]

As an example, the CRTC limits international competition (Wind Mobile [4]), under the guise of "promote Canadian ownership and control of the industry" [4] There's a reason that Orange mobile (and the other european brands) haven't come to Canada, and it's the CRTC.

In reality, Canadian Telecom is a farce that would not hold up to competition against other international telecoms.

More and more people no longer channel surf, and more and more people no longer watch tv (even if they have it) even at a rate of once per month. Increasingly people are watching other content or consuming tv content differently (through netflix, for example). And just as the trend of going without a landline telephone started with the younger, more tech savvy folks and spread from there so has the trend of going without traditional cable tv.

The writing is on the wall. It will likely be a good while before the decline in subscriptions makes a big impact, but it's very much on the horizon, and the networks and the cable companies ignore it at their peril.

awesome, much obliged!
First, thank you very much for taking the time to explain things to me. I really appreciate it, and I learned a lot from your post.

Regarding the "appalling oversight." To be fair, I would probably say this about 99% of all physics articles written for the layman. Practically all of them contain abstractions which the intelligent layman cannot connect to actual reality. I certainly encountered this in physics classes in college. This infuriates me to no end. I suspect the "average person" (I am not actually that average) doesn't really mind, and perhaps doesn't even really notice. The thing about it which actually infuriates me, is that I think a lot of scientists actually kind of delight in this.

Of course, a large reason for this whole problem is that the nature of scientific truths about reality has not yet been established among scientists (or really anyone in general, modulo a small group of philosophers I happen to agree with). So there is a sense in which it is "not their fault."

Regarding calling it a "curved three-dimensional surface." No, I do not think that is an acceptable description, because a surface is, by definition, defined as a 2D space within a 3D volume. You can't just throw out the definition. It's important to maintain the integrity of our concepts (including our definitions). The practical consequence of throwing out the integrity of our concepts is, for one thing, that someone like myself can't actually understand what is going on. (I have an MS and am about half way though a PhD). Now that you have explained the whole reason for describing it that way to me, I understand what it is - but I could not have understood it before that, and neither could the vast majority of readers of that article (unless they happened to be physicists). The practical consequences of this are possibly much wider than just confusing non-physicists, though.

To clarify my reason for defining a "surface" as I did. First, I think that's the actual everyday definition. More fundamentally - that is the only concrete thing in reality that people actually encounter. In other words, we do not encounter "3D surfaces" in reality, because that would require four dimensions. That fact is precisely why "surface" means what it does in English, and not what it (apparently) means in Physics.

It may be that Physics has accepted that certain words mean certain things, distinct from what they do in English. If that is the case, it was a mistake historically, and physicists today should be keenly aware of the issue when writing and teaching, so that they do not confuse ordinary people. Ordinary people need to push back harder on physicists to explain things in terms of concretes they can relate to in reality or (where needed) explicit mathemetics (as you did in your explanation).
