I got the following about Microsoft and Fox News - funny!

The Truth About Microsoft and Fox News

Many astute citizens have already noticed the recent censorship of media pieces critical toward Microsoft. Don't fool yourself: this is definitely part of a master plan, and Fox News are probably the ones behind it.

The value of Fox News's hedge fund investments have doubled over the past 70 years-- while ordinary Americans have seen their investments vanish in waves of depression and recession. Coincidence? Definitely not!

Many members of the Federal Reserve are secretly working for Fox News on the side. Their air travel habits are proof enough for this, but there's a wealth of additional evidence that the Federal Reserve doesn't want you to see.

Employees of Microsoft were seen at both the US Election of 2000 and WW1-- despite the fact that they had no good reason to be there.

We've taken a big risk to post this information on the internet-- many others have seen their careers destroyed for doing much less.

The only way for upstanding citizens to protect themselves from this madness is to retreat from modern society entirely.

autocomplop[1] is easier to install, but not as sophisticated. I just installed it to see if I like the idea of having completions pop up automatically.

That's what you would expect to observe if either (a) there were negligible sexism, or (b) the sexism was present, but "more nuanced and subtle" in its form. Therefore your observation does not count as strong evidence for distinguishing between these hypotheses. It counts as stronger evidence against widespread overt sexism.
A proven exploit that is publicly known, on a device that millions of people still browse the web with daily. Just because it is discontinued doesn't mean that it doesn't exist anymore.
I think it depends strongly on your target market. If you're building B2B enterprise software used exclusively on PCs on a desk, in an office, with no remote access, the mobile might be less important.
I might be wrong ( since you are a registrar )

I accidentally let my domain name expire. How do I get it back?

You may be able to get it back for 30 days after it has been deleted by the registrar. This period is called the Redemption Grace Period. Only your original registrar can perform this service. The registrar is allowed to charge you a fee to restore your name during the Redemption Grace Period.

if you book a domain through google apps it registers with godaddy, there is no option to change the nameserver via google apps nor godaddy allocates any account for it, thats not fair
That's still a window that's not right next to the completion menu. If I wanted to use a separate window far away from the menu, I'd use the 'preview' window that was designed for this (and YCM does use it, because there's nothing else on the table).
Beautiful work! Love the shining.

I will vouch for this as well. I have still, very conflicted feelings about the improvements in the router and having to rewrite large portions of the app I was (and am still) working on.

@tomdale thank you for the breakneck speed in development, it amazes me how much the project has evolved in the time I've been using it.
Look, the executive branch is empowered by Congress to engage in military action against Al Qaeda by the AUMF. You may not like this, but since it's been in place for >11 years now perhaps you could make your argument in the context of the existing legal framework. For example, if you think the AUMF is unconstitutional you could argue that, or if you think it is constitutional but the executive's actions are outside the scope of the AUMF you could tell us why. I don't see how we can discuss this meaningfully without agreeing on some terms of reference.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but does this not merely allow an attacker to cause the browser to make requests with custom headers? That is, it does not allow the attacker to gain the CSRF token, and if the CSRF token is not known to the attacker, he would still not be able to make API requests.
Aye. I remember having problems with autocomplop though when I had a rather large amounts of text open at once; YouCompleteMe seems like an improvement in that regard though. Handled

`vim src/**/*.go`

quite nicely.
No. Unblow your mind. Any service which returns sensitive data in JSON via an HTTP get based on the user's cookie is vulnerable. At worst, an attacker would just be able collect the response of a GET on behalf of a visitor to the attacker's site if the user is on a really old browser.
I disagree. As CiC, the President has total authority over the conduct of military campaigns. This memo limits that authority and describes under what circumstances military power may be used.
Well, the OIC for Abu Ghraib didn't get court-martialed or relieved for dereliction of duty; did they? It was a case where a systematized culture of impunity for bad acts was condoned until it became a public relations issue; at which time only those at the lowest level were publicly punished; and the responsibility for allowing such a culture to flourish was never properly accounted for.

As with much of American society these days, the application of justice is capricious and unpredictable; with the signal exception being that the upper echelons suffer fewer consequences than the grunts who do the work.
It's probably safer to use:

#!/usr/bin/env bash

Assuming env is installed (I believe I had to install a package on OpenBSD to use it) this will find the first instance of bash in the PATH.
And that is why I use GoMommy.

You need to offer your reasons for drawing that conclusion if you expect to have it taken seriously.
I'd love to see more reactions to the blackout. When I was waiting for the game to continue, I instantly remembered all the Buffalo Wild Wing 'Overtime' commercials.

If this is how Oreo's marketing team reacted, you can imagine there was someone at BWW corporate working on acquiring the blackout's footage today.

I want to see developers who are experts in IDea, emacs, vim, etc. face off to code a variety of projects in several languages/frameworks side by side in each editor/IDE so we talk about the empirical differences. vim is a lot faster for many things, but I wonder how well it compares when you need to debug Java remotely (in a container on another server), for example.
That's just API spec, not syntactically correct JavaScript... The parameters in [] are optional. I.e. you can pass only one array to d3.max, or pass an array and an accessor. Similar with the range API.
Angular is great but it has some problems , and i dont think one framework is suitable for all use cases.

- For an app that is form/list oriented ( LOB ) angularJS is the best, plays very well with Bootstrap.

- For an app where i need full control over object lifecycle(create custom events , hook into object creating/destruction), when some animated transition between views or states are needed, i would use BackboneJS or EmberJS, these frameworks play well with require-js.

Iadapted a backbone showcase to angularJS , the whole app is opensourced on github : https://github.com/Mparaiso/silex-bookmarkly and you can test the app live here : http://markme.alwaysdata.net/application .
My 2 cents :
- AngularJS can get slow when using repeaters on large object lists , i never had that problem with Backbone or Ember.
- Directives are tricky , and some tricks( $timeout , element.ready , etc ... ) feel like you dont control anything at all.
- since angularJS uses $ to namespace it's variable on models , there is some model corruption happening while loading stuffs from the server.
- i found using requireJS was a bit hard ,and having both AMD and IOC containers is ugly ( but orthogonal ).
- AngularJS doesnt too much stuff under the hood imho.

Overall , AngularJS is one of the best framework out there for html client apps.

I realize this must have been discussed before, but seriously -- why hasn't this been fixed yet? For a website with a community as devoted to user experience as Hacker News, backed by a firm with the resources of Y Combinator no less... why hasn't this been fixed yet?
Exactly. I actually did contribute to the Blender fund. It was a real, working product, with verifiable quality, and the offer was concrete: 100k euro for the known-to-be-existing source. I'm willing to pay for that. I'm not willing to pay for someone to "work on" a project I can't touch yet; especially knowing the failure rate single-developer software projects have.

(And yes, there were all sorts of technical squabbles about the Blender release, like license choice and worries about whether the IP would turn out to be "pure". But everyone was pure of intent, and things worked out.)
I lifted the run loop concept. Damn good one. I don't really spend any time pushing my work for use by others. But I agree it ought to be copied by others.

Run loops make a great partner in crime with requestAnimationFrame.

This happens far too often in Africa and we did nothing.

Remember Iraq was the "hey let's kill anyone for 9/11" and all the teenagers rushed to sign-up (and then got stop-lossed for years as a thank you).

We had insanely selective justification while ignoring everything else. To rewrite what we did to Iraq as anything less than horrible is a massive lie.

Actually, drug testing is a good measure of impulsivity and distractibility. If a person cannot manage to pass a drug test, they lack self control and are likely to do things like bitch out customers and break expensive equipment.

The self control aspect of drug tests are probably a pretty good proxy for IQ—ADHD is correlated with a substantial 10 point drop in IQ.

You could just as well test for salt consumption as cocaine. The point is to check whether the applicant can hold their shit together for a few days for something as important as a job.

I don't understand this comparison. Yamamoto was at the time of his death an instrumental component of one of the largest military threats the US ever faced. Cukurs was decades out of the military when he was assassinated. Yamamoto was killed to degrade the combat effectiveness of a combatant army. Cukurs was killed purely for revenge.
How is this "winning" the Marketing Super Bowl? How many people saw this? A few hundred thousand at best? 108 million people were watching the Super Bowl. A Tweet does basically nothing for Oreo's brand when compared to an actual Super Bowl ad.

Behavior can be provided through directives via elements, attributes, css class names, and comments.

It isn't "allergic to conditionals". It just drives the logic elsewhere to keep the presentation layer looking as clean as possible to the developer so that you can either focus on the view (template) or the controller or model.
US didn't get approval from NATO either. I remember Germany and France being in strong opposition.

The US basically gave them the finger and invaded Iraq anyway. And yet, here we are years later, with absolutely no evidence of WMDs discovered.

And of course, everybody knew that the rationale given for invading Iraq was pure bullshit, you would have to be an idiot to not see it.
Yeah, there is no room for abuse in that little gem.

The US Supreme Court has already decided at least once that the AUMF could not be cited in defense of the goverment's actions (in this case, military tribunals) because those actions violated the principles of the Geneva Conventions, among others.

That's the whole problem with this. The accused never get a chance to defend themselves in court, are presumed guilty and sentenced without any reasonable defense.

Ask HN: Replacement for Maven which can build RPMs?
I'm looking for something which can replace Maven (as it's messy keeping all the poms, and we are moving away from Java) but I haven't found anything similar which can build RPMs. Am I missing something? What do you guys use for building?
The difference is spelled out very clearly in the document. The United States is in a state of congressionally approved armed conflict with Al Quaida. Where they not in a state of armed conflict, then there would be no legal basis.

The consequences of going to war, is that the executive (President, acting as Command in Chief of the armed forces) is authorized to kill the enemy without judicial review.

Absolutely. I think these extrajudicial killings we are talking about now lay somewhere rather in the middle.

This is a terrible example of an infographic. The VERY LEAST the person who created it is to do side by side comparisons.

Comparisons should be done on a similarity basis. You don't compare apples to oranges, and you don't compare Shopkick to Airtime.

Such a simple rule. And in explaining why startups fail, this "infographic" is of no use. At all. There are no quantifiable data, or in any fact, useful information.

All this "infographic" does is to present some historical facts in a colourful manner. And is of no use to people willing or wanting to dissect a startup for reasons of failure.

This is making me irrationally angry. BRB
You can still get such a helper window, just not in a convenient place. Vim's 'preview' window is there to show such information (docs, arg names and types), but it pops up at the top of the screen instead of right next to the completion window.

YCM will feed information to the 'preview' window by default (you just need to have 'preview' in Vim's 'completeopt' option). See the docs.
I've never understood why some people insist that republic and democracy are mutually exclusive terms. Can you define your terms for me?

There are dozens of exchanges. None of them have the liquidity to make my time there worthwhile.

Doing your best at security is not good enough. Bitcoinica is a good example of this. You'll need to make sure everything is locked down, or the day when you announce to your users their funds are gone awaits.

Ability for users to easily get funds in/out of your exchange is a must. If you choose to obey AML laws, your users will curse at you for making their lives miserable. You're going to be stuck with bank wires/LR because accepting ACH is a ton of risk.

I either go on Mt. Gox for day-trading or Coinbase for buying/selling.

You only have to compromise your definition of democracy if you are starting from the assumption that we must necessarily be included in that definition. In normal conversation untainted by prejudices of patriotism we are perfectly capable of using terminology that represents a state never realized in reality.

Is there a way to dismiss it without using the autocomplete?
It will always happen. The only known way to prevent this is to get your users to authenticate in your DRM service.
I agree, in that I think the available evidence suggests that some of the killings have been reasonable in the context of military operations, and others have been haphazard, negligent, or poorly justified.

Of course, that's the way of all wars. Drone killings are alien to us and thus easy to fret about, but far worse things happen when you put troops on the ground. Scared teenagers have done far worse in good faith efforts to take down well-conceived targets than drones are likely ever to do.

You'd hope that people would take away the right lesson from this; not "US citizenship is a sacred talisman of safety in war zones", but that we shouldn't be declaring idiotic wars against enemies that almost by definition can't be "defeated".
How do you know env is in /usr/bin rather than in /bin or /usr/local/bin? I'm just curious...
Scala is definitely worth the time to learn properly, in my opinion. The convenience features are pretty good, and its a lot more usable than other FP languages due to the fact that you can "opt into" java-style code when it feels necessary.

I can't quite vouch for Odersky's "Programming in Scala", however. For something presented much like the definitive source, it never went into the edge cases, and the chapters get smaller and smaller. The chapter on parsing is woefully incomplete, failing to explain how to use the base feature set apart from recognising a grammar (no info on usage). Explanations on certain things like implicits also left something to be desired.

These books might be good though.
ESC will do it. But you shouldn't really need to. You just continue typing and the menu goes away and pops back as needed. It does its best to be unobtrusive.

I don't think we really disagree on anything in this case then. I have no particular issue if Americans happen to be killed by Americans in normal circumstances.

Killings outside of what could reasonably be considered a warzone continues to concerns me, American or otherwise (though American particularly, if I am honest).
This post is just so sick. I'm sorry that anyone would have to go through all of that. While I think that calling people sexist or racist when it isn't founded is terrible, this is an extremely obvious case of harassment and those involved should be punished. I hope my daughters don't have to deal with this crap when they grow up.
Seconded. Also for vim.

Amendment V specifies "no person", neither "no national", nor "no resident", nor "no citizen". Amendment XIV, extending this to limiting the individual states does restrict it to "citizens", but this is a case of the Federal government acting.

>>Men and women commit rape and are raped in roughly equal numbers, and that is not including prison rape. When do include that, men are the majority of the victims.

Statistics have very little meaning without context.

From your first link:

>Men are the vast majority of rapists and women are the vast majority of victims because rape was defined in such a way to make sure that this was so.

Exactly. This is so because the context is that we live in a patriarchal society where it is much easier for men to use their power and dominance to take advantage of women.

You see, that's what rape is about: dominance. It doesn't have anything to do about penises or vaginas or anuses. When Person A rapes Person B it is because they want to establish their dominance on Person B. Men are disproportionately classified as rapists because they are exploiting their already dominant status in society at great harm to the other person. And if we were living in a matriarchal society, it would be the exact opposite.
