10 Useful WordPress Email Newsletter Plugins
There are many different options to choose from when it comes to email newsletter plugins for WordPress and below is a list of 10 of the best choices.
Your second reason is right on.
If Haskell I/O is pure, why can't it be intermingled with other pure functions?
That is indeed simpler, but not nearly as powerful or as flexible.

As far as I know, no default Firefox setting will allow you to impose different font sizes per website. Also, the setting you mention will change only the font size, and not the zoom level as a whole (NoSquint can change either).

Finally, the setting you mention does not affect font colors or background colors, as the Stylish stylesheet does.
That made me laugh on-line.
A wonderful quip, but what is its explanatory power here? What is it here "not to play"?

I'm as much Fuck the Man as the next person, but let's try to dig a bit deeper.
Dartflash library makes Dart easy and familiar to ActionScript developers
It should. The appearance of a new technology creates value which will be shared by society in some way. If a solar breakthrough removed the need for gasoline, oil workers would lose out in the short run, but every car owner would have more money to spend on other things, so jobs would be created elsewhere. Whereas if oil just disappeared, value would be lost overall.
Does Safari grok Name Constraints yet? I thought it didn't.
How many G5 (or other PowerPC based Macs) are still out there, you think? I am working on an App, and debating whether to go through all the trouble to make it compatible with PPC architecture for the first release.

Advancement and improvement over time are, for many (I might say most), fairly major parts of what Maslow would call self-actualization--the drive to improve and better oneself.

So, "most people"?
Ah! Thanks for mentioning this. I thought the Tumblr massive-font-size thing was just my Galaxy Note.

Isaac Schluetter talks about node v.0.10
hi dons,

that is a nice link that i will check out. (i just read their data types a la carte because of a recommendation by you on stack overflow afair just last week.)

i was wondering whether it is possible to restructure the io monad into smaller monads that only do more restricted things. is it possible to do something like that w/o breaking backwards compatibility? and if so, is it possible to really do so in the haskell standards process?

i'd really like to reason about programs by looking at a type signature like

cat :: FilePath → Term (Teletype :+: FileSystem) ()

instead of

cat :: FilePath → IO ()
when i needed a place to drop files to move them between people or connected devices, i saw dropbox and it's joke of a security, and box.net, i went with box.net.

dropbox sounded like amateur hour all around.

But this bloat on the android app and the site (from one to 3 to 4 clicks to download a file i'm seeing in the list!) i'm considering the next choice.
They do and that's is specifically what this offering is about.

However our policies have always been that those entities need to meet the same requirements (operationally, etc) as we do which includes not participating MiTMs with any key material associated with that PKI.

Those customers who do have such CAs are also (normally) subject contractual restrictions to what namespaces they can issue against and they are always subject to audits where we confirm their usage is consistent with those policies.

In the very rare cases where that is not the case they are audited to meet the exact requirements we meet - we almost never do this.

It’s a difficult problem as a whole, there are legitimate use cases that help secure the web and enable commerce that are best served by having publicly trusted certificates our goal as an industry is to find ways to address those needs while reducing the risk.

To that end when I joined GlobalSign a year ago (from Microsoft) one of the first things I did was started here to advocate the industries use of name constraints as a means to reduce risk for all parties involved in these scenarios.

How many construction workers get in trucks and drive home and go into houses? How many have to clean their trucks and garage floors because of the dirt they track in?

Why do you think construction workers are so different from others?
I should probably add that the requirements that those customers have to meet go far beyond storage of the key material on a HSM (re: technical controls implemented in the device in which it's held).

Fun with JavaScript Numbers
What I took away from that statement was how incredibly sharp you have to be to summarize the differences between ancient kernels (and he implies that he hasn't seen the source code in a long time) in about 4 hours.
It can be. But what gets intermingled with the other functions is indeed the pure language describing what IO actions to take, not their result. For instance, I'd had some good experiences returning IO actions out of STM transactions.
Much easier to embed in something else or to embed something else in it. JavaScript is possible in principle but much harder. More friendly to use than a Lisp for most people.
non sense! the box app is perfect. more than perfect if you have a rooted android.

treat files as files. not as things that must be opened by a program (or... apps).

now they are making their app bloated and useless.

Their previous approach, to have a data api and recommend apps "to who may need" to edit files in place or something, was the right thing to do.

now they will have a bloated app, that will be crushed in functionality by google drive (gdocs) when they could be the king of sane file management in the cloud while also fostering innovation of new editors, heck there was a guy in xpda forums trying to hook his image editor to box.net. that will probably go south now.
I think you perhaps overestimate the setback that might have occurred. For example, things like repealing DADT would have happened regardless because a lawsuit had already been won ruling DADT unconstitutional a year prior to Obama doing away with the policy.

The Wikipedia article on Mitt Romney

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Governorship_of_Mitt_Romney#Sam...

even suggests he supported equal rights and benefits for LGBT couples as a governor though he apposed the use of the word "marriage" to describe said couples.

It seems like few people actually bother to look up a politicians actions and instead just take other politicians and partisans word for it when it comes to the "radical" positions of their opponents. I'd attribute the progress more to the changing attitudes of the country as a whole than the election of any one person.
I agree with Adam, support is actually quite good in modern libraries and this is in no small thanks to the good folks at NIST who published the PKITS tests for chain engines - http://csrc.nist.gov/groups/ST/crypto_apps_infra/pki/pkitest...

Many libraries built these into regression tests for their chain engines and the suite covers name constraints pretty good.

That would be very interesting. I initially thought SnapChat was strictly for sexting, but then I downloaded the app and ended up getting into it and sending ridiculous pictures to friends and family...it's a great messaging tool.

What I'm wondering is...how are they going to make money?
Applying to YC as a non-DE company does not reduce your chances of being interviewed or accepted. However for us to be able to invest in so many companies in such a short time frame, we do require you to convert to a DE C-Corp if we agree to fund you. I'll help you with that though, if the time comes!
Thanks. I'm sorry, I knew MITM wasn't the only or most common reason enterprises wanted these certs, but wrote lazily.

Are the nameConstraints extensions on these certs marked critical? I didn't know they could even be non-critical (one RFC says they can't) but 'agl says otherwise and would know.
Let me rephrase the question: if Name Constraints are used and the extension is marked as critical (as 5280 requires), do you know (or can estimate or guess) what percentage of public users will not trust the certificate?
Rails App Template Alternative

I've used a Lenovo X230-T. It's a 12" laptop with a touchscreen, convertible to a tablet. I use it as a workstation laptop (lots of PC-specific apps) quite often, but then it magically doubles as an entertainment device during my 15-minute breaks and after hours. Switching between a laptop and an iPad carries a non-insignificant overhead, I found - I, for one, actually like the laptop/tablet form factor.
I like Kirsty's quote: "I was shocked at the amount of trust that was being placed on me at first." It reminds me of how when I started at my current job, our head of engineering gave me logins and passwords for every piece of software we had. In my first meeting with her and my manager, my manager says, "Woah, I don't even have access to half this stuff." It was really inspiring to know they trusted me enough with the keys to the kingdom, and it made life so much easier than the previous companies where I had to fill out a form for access to just about anything. More companies could do well to place more trust in their employees like this.
Well, the guy was 17 when he wrote LZEXE. So yeah, I still feel tiny in comparison to his achievements.
There is a basic concern about "nuclear proliferation" of X.509 CA=YES certificates, since it is unlikely that any medium-sized collection of enterprise networks can among themselves safeguard the entire equivalently-sized set of corresponding certificates. Enterprise internal network security is surprisingly and creatively bad.

That said, if we're (a) in a universe where critical:true nameConstraints are enforced on the last couple versions of Safari, Chrome, Firefox and IE, and (b) you're only issuing critical:true nameConstraints certificates, it probably isn't worth being alarmist here.

In any case, thank you for commenting here. I had hoped to have a chance for once to join my fellow HN commenters in a rousing game of baying at the moon over the injustice of it all, but instead find myself amidst a carnival of X.509 learning. Hooray?

TACK can't get here fast enough!
Much less than this article implies.
Honest question: Do people in this forum do not disable safeboot as the first thing they do when they get a recent notebook?

I just got mine this week, it was the very first thing i did. NONE of the arguments people had for it were implemented as they were hopping they would. That user password to disable? every time you disable it in the bios, bios ask you "type those 4 random digits i just generated to confirm"... how is this even called a password?!

anyway, honest question. Do you disable it or do you actually use it? (not asking for opinion unless you actually have one, we had plenty of those before)
That doesn't do monadic I/O justice. An IO value in Haskell is a first class value. Your typical C instruction is not.
That's the position we start with when we engage with a customer but its dependent on the community in which they are going to communicate with. To be honest in most cases today (due to Safari) criticality is not enabled on most deployments.
Objective-C vs. RubyMotion [video]
It is a better approach when one knows nothing of a subject to rather ask questions than make statements (bordering on sensationalism). I don't disagree that one needs to be skeptical.

>Every elite in history has called itself a "meritocracy". Who defines "merit"?

I'd concede that the word itself may have been used questionably to capitalize on the associated ideological goodwill. However, simply stating it may have been abused, does not automatically preclude an actual meritocratic group from existing.

For example, while many generally dishonest individuals (eg sociopaths) may profess to being totally honest, it does not follow that a generally honest person, does not exist.

Similarly, it's quite possible to build something close to a true meritocracy. How do I know? Because this happened at my previous company. Merit, at it's core, was defined by outputs. Nothing more. Was it perfect? No, but we are dealing with messy humans, and subjectivity obviously occurs, but the point is to actively and continually encourage a culture of objectivity.

Over many years the track record bore this out.

There were those that started in 'serfdom' and yet over time, rose up. Actually, not always "up", as in traditional line management sense, but certainly in responsibilities assigned to them. Hence they received associated increases in compensation, benefits and peer respect.

Many know the theory, but how well it works in practice, depends on the ability of those leading, to truly believe and continually act in a way that promotes and entrenches the behavior, so that it becomes the culture.

An example, we had (and they still do), employees on the exec management team that started their professional journey's as junior call center agents. Conversely, those persons that partook in politicized self promotion, tended to enjoy a rather brief tenancy at the company. Either they were actively pushed out by peers and managers, or they passively drifted apart on their own accord, as their natural skills of manipulation and politicking, bore scarce fruits.

In summary, while perhaps uncommon, it is possible to for a meritocracy to flourish given excessive care and thoughtfulness is spent designing fair and useful incentives and metrics. Shallow or ill-conceived incentives and insincere leadership, could set the organization on a ruinous path over the longterm.
The premise of the article is faulty, and the problem overstated.

First, the author has to sleight-of-hand his way into his argument. He's worried that the "elite" will use their money to ensure that their children get such a leg-up on the non-elite children that the non-elite children won't be able to compete and will become (I guess?) the modern equivalent of feudal peasants. Of course, he doesn't present any evidence that this is happening. He states that "the top 1% have seen their incomes soar", but this isn't a statement of a problem.[1]

While it seems intuitive that privileged children will do better than non-privileged children, and even that a cadre of privileged children could keep the non-privileged children non-privileged for eternity, this just doesn't jibe with reality.

For example, across just three generations, the complete loss of inherited wealth is nearly 90%. That means the great-grand children of nearly every founder who had a big exit will never see any of that money. (Note that this same argument is often made with respect to corporations as a basis for stringent anti-trust regulation. But, pick any 50 year increment of the DJIA and see how many companies on the list in the starting year were on the list at the end.) The "problem" of perpetual wealth a specter.

Sure, you can point to the Rothschilds as an example of dynastic wealth. But (conspiracy theories aside) how many “wealthy” Rothschilds are there? Do they wield any real power? What about some of the other richest people in history? If dynastic wealth is a true problem, why aren’t the Hugheses, the Gettys, the Rockafeller’s the Carnegies, the Vanderbilts, the Mellons, and the Fords dominating world politics, finance or culture? (Interesting aside: many of these titans were actually dirt poor themselves before building their own fortunes.)

It’s easy to take a small, 30-year slice of history and claim that, if things continue this way, surely the world will be hell in just a few more short years. Fortunately, it almost never works out that way.

Actually, he's using completely appropriate terminology. Your mathematical education is just sufficiently limited that you don't know that. Rather than getting angry, you'd think your reaction would be to absorb the new information.

To me, your complaint is like someone saying it's inappropriate terminology to discuss time complexity in big-Oh notation, because we're programmers, not mathematicians.

Epidemics are noisy... This graph doesn't reflect that. Consider this. A ton of people get polio. Then we have herd immunity for 25 years until the percentage of the population that hasn't been exposed rises. Then we have a huge epidemic again. Since the vaccine, we haven't seen a large epidemic except in populations without high vaccination rates.
I advise anyone starting YC to listen to Kirsty, in fact to obey Kirsty.

It will make your life so much easier.
I totally understand the concern and I think the CA industry as a whole does as well.

Moving forward Name Constraints will be adopted (finally) which is a good thing. Today it is supported by the majority of devices on the internet and given how fast browsers update now it wont be too long until the extension can be marked critical.

Some people who actually asked in stores that have sold out were told that the store got 2 (a display item and an inventory item).

It would not be surprising if this is engineered to make it sell out quickly and seem more desirable than it really is.
"Apple [artificially limits] supply so they sell out quickly"

Citation needed.

Whenever Apple launches a new iDevice, it sells millions of units within days. When stock is depleted that fast, that means it could've sold more if they had the inventory, and they miss out on sales because of customers choosing something that is in stock at the time.
When I first saw them (it must have been more than a year ago) there was an online shop, but I can't find it anymore. I also remember a discussion here in HN about the safety of the material (which is basically glass, but with a new configuration). I wonder what happened in the meantime.

I can't believe you're chastising me or trying to correct me, or whatever, for judging Romney based on the actions that he PLEDGED to carry out during his term if he were elected.
You seem unclear on the point. It doesn't really matter that much what Romney's own views are. It matters that he's a Republican, and would appoint right-wing judges and a right-wing cabinet and would sign Republican legislation.

These judges and legislation would, of course, be substantially different from those resulting from an Obama Administration.
When we agree to fund companies, they fall into one of three buckets:
1) not incorporated at all
2) Incorporated outside Delaware and / or as an LLC
3) Incorporated in Delaware already

Those in 1) are by far the easiest to deal with - we have a standard process to get everyone set up so that going forward there won't be any problems.

Those in 2) start to get a bit more complicated and we have to work with the founders to convert to a DE C-Corp. Sometimes that means just starting anew with a new company and sometimes, if there is too much corporate history, converting the companies. This takes up some time and depending on the original state can be costly and time-consuming. But it all works out in the end...

Those in 3) are the ones that are often the hardest! There can be problems around only some of the paperwork being completed or signed, founders don't have vesting on their stock, uneven stock splits between founders (a strong indicator of future founder breakups), needlessly complicated cap tables, not enough stock authorised for us to buy our shares - the list goes on. All this can be fixed too!

The founder that says to me "we're incorporated in Delaware so you can invest in us straightaway" is usually the one that becomes one of the most complicated companies for us to invest in.

My advice would be that if you're applying to YC, then don't incorporate unless there is a specific reason to. It is much easier and cheaper for you in the long run to use our process.
It is worth knowing that this map is intended to illustrate the absurdity of a specific (old) statement from DHS. It is almost definitely not the case that living in NYC puts you at risk of arbitrary border searches; among other things, SCOTUS has specifically said it doesn't.
