You can determine labels, it's just more work. I wrote a script a while back that used IMAP to just generate a list of message-ids and the labels associated with each one. I iterated over all messages in all folders to build the associations. It might be possible to query for a single message-id in all folders, to get a list of labels to, but you would need to know the message-id ahead of time.

| I used to use offlineimap, but it's buggy

My favourite bug was when it was blocking on wanting a password, but wasn't accepting input. I had to kill it externally because it wasn't accepting C-\ or C-c.
it does you have to kill the spaces between name / repo to name/repo
You can sign contracts, not go to school, and get credit when you're 10 where you live?! Where are you?
That sounds pretty cool. I'd be worried about there getting to be a decent amount of money on the line (I could see thousands each week for something like Rails or Python long term) and people trying to game the allocation to get an extra few percentage points of the increasingly large pie.
Whether you're interested in the poll or not is no reason to vandalize it.

Being unwilling to share personal information is no reason to vandalize it.

Wanting to "click all the buttons" is only a valid excuse if you are under the age of 8.

What's silly is defending the dickheads who purposely ruin the poll.

Any large company should have a policy document which states the absurd rules including installation of French software versions and use of French keyboards, hiring and e-mail policies. I believe the policies only apply to businesses with over 50 employees so you would not have encountered them in the public sector.

The idea isn't that people can't name things as they like. It's that they should consider the name if they want wide adoption (See RMS and $POSIXLY_CORRECT-vs-$POSIX_ME_HARDER).
We need supplemental poll. Questions:

1. Did you click your correct age?

2. You click your incorrect age?

3. Did you click more than one age?

Reminds me how much I miss Google real estate on maps.

I wonder if there is any chance they will bring that back.

“Real estate, by far, is the most screwed up industry in America,”

Only a person who didn't need medical or dental care in the USA without insurance would say that.
You wouldn't really have any customers if you weren't accepting payments though, it would be more like you pissed off all of your potential customers just for a bit of market data.
Really like the concept - lovely visualisation. My comments:

- The URL length limit is way too low! If I want to test a specific asset that's delivered by CDN there is no way to do that

- The colours seem inverted (I'd expect green for fast, red for slow) but this may be a cultural thing

- I'd dampen down the grey a bit, it looks like it's a measurement but really I think that's just places where no test was performed?

- Presumably you know where you can get measurements from so perhaps the initial map should be dual toned to reflect that

Something that has happened to me over the past month that I never thought would happen - I'm actively looking to use Bing and DuckDuckGo over Google.

Bing, something I laughed at just a few months ago.

Google's results are starting to waver and the Google+ requirement is a cancer eating their products from the inside.
I only recently discovered isync (mbsync), which is sad given that it is crazy fast and written by the mutt author.

offlineimap is cool, but it is sadly quite slow and crashes often. New releases usually bring as many bugs as they fix.

Really? They're on the verge of it. The way they load search results as their auto-complete hones in, breaks browser history.

If the author had something to said he should have done it straight to the point, or at least with elegance.
Mutt's IMAP support is working fine for me. And enabling the header cache makes opening mailboxes fast.
It is really snappy and nice, however I still don't understand why there isn't nested threads. It's such a pain trying to navigate around trying to figure out what is in reply to what.

Please don't listen to this guy and leave domains alone.

In my books, professional domain squatters are scum and the rules that unfortunately allow this should be changed. You should not be allowed to squat like that on a public resource that is scarce and getting scarcer, this is a net loss to everyone else (except maybe the registrars, which are in on it).

That's one interpretation.

A more cynical one would be that very few anglophones would ever vote "Oui" in a secession referendum. Therefore the Parti Québécois had motivation to make life as uncomfortable as possible for english speakers, hoping they'd give up and move to Ontario.

Probably both explanations have some amount of truth to them.
It's both. No documentation is irresponsible. An over emphasis on 'repeatability' through exhaustive process and product documentation (and strict adherence to said process) is a red flag in my book (in most situations).

To me it either means that the employer is worried about its employees walking (as you suggested), or that the employer wants to minimize the effects of discarding the employee. In the first case, it's a self-fulfilling prophecy. In the latter case you'll achieve what you're after, but not how you planned. Instead you're minimizing the current value and productivity of the employee, meaning that when you fire him/her, the impact will be minimal.

The moral of the story? Limit the scope of your documentation, and place high emphasis on that limited scope. Instead of worrying about how you'll replace someone when they're gone, worry about whether or not you're putting them in an environment where they can perform to the potential of their unique abilities as an individual.

(And don't even get me started on the whole "No documentation is better than bad documentation" thing.)
I recommend this approach to sync config files over Dropbox to get exactly the same editing environment from Win, Mac, and Linux:

1) move the /User folder under "Sublime Text 2/Packages" over to Dropbox/ST2/User

2) in Win goto CMD and from the %APPDATA%\Sublime Text 2\Packages folder enter: mklink /D "User" "path to\My Dropbox\ST2\User"

3) in Mac OSX/Linux goto the Packages folder (you can find the location under >Preferences>Browse Preferences) and enter: ln -s pathto/Dropbox/Sublime\ Text\ 2/User ./User

The fantastic thing with this setup is that in any new machines, Package Control will automatically take care of installing any missing plugins.

That's sort of right. Quebec's laws apply whether Google has an office there. However, because the contes is conducted virtually, Quebec wouldn't be able to do a thing to a contest holder with no nexus in Quebec. If Google was required to send a representative to Quebec to conduct their contest and didn't abide by the law, that representative might be deported, or in some stricter countries arrested. Google Code requires no such person, of course.
Let me preface this by saying my mom is an incredibly successful real estate agent. I think people underestimate how valuable a good agent can be. They know problem signs when buying a house, they know the market and they know how to negotiate. My mom helped us by a townhome and then build a house and it was an incredibly eye opening experience. I was used to my mom being the sweet, nurturing woman I grew up with, but when it came to negotiating she turned into a pitbull. When we bought our townhome, she knew the market, she knew what areas were better. When we built our house, she was able to guide in a way to maximize the bang for our buck. Things that were cheap and add a lot of value to do when building, but not cheap to retrofit.

Thinking that using a site like redfin or zillow is going to make up for the depth of experience is just frankly silly. Would you negotiate a Series A with a bunch of forms from LegalZoom? No, you'd be an idiot to not have an experienced attorney on your side.

Edit: The cool thing about real estate agents (unlike attorneys) is that the great ones charge just as much as the bad ones. The takeaway is that if you're going to buy a house, you should pick an agent that sells a TON of real estate and not someone who does it as a way to supplement their income.
I like the idea! My friend and I had a similar idea at one point that we quit working on, but it was a bit more motivation oriented:

>Hit me up on twitter! I just got on there.

This is not something I would be telling tech-savvy people.
AAVE is one dialect among dozens in the US that will get you discriminated against. I grew up in Appalachia (West Virginia/southwestern Virginia line) and when I'm at home or with friends/relatives, my natural dialect is potent.

However, over many years, starting in late high school, I trained myself to speak in a more standard form of English to protect myself from the discrimination of the "hillbilly" stigma. This is my formal dialect, and I use it in business and in formal/sem-formal scholastic settings. My father was the one who encouraged me to do this. As a child, I noticed that he spoke differently when making business calls. He told me that, when "you are trying to make money, trying to learn to make money, or dealing with somebody who wants your money, you speak their language."
This knowledge of using a non-native, standard dialect in business/government/education communications is extremely common, and is especially common amongst the mainstream African American community. The issue with AAVE is only when children are raised in broken families by parents who are too ignorant/disengaged/etc to teach children the standard, formalized dialect that every other ethnic group in America is expected to adhere to. I can't speak in a courtroom in my native dialect and be taken seriously, even if I'm in Charleston, West Virginia. (The exceptions to this are in identity politics. Lots of deep southern politicians use their native accent, and then there is the Charleston dialect, which uses proper grammar but drops the "r's", so is therefore acceptable in formal settings.)
I find it rather annoying that people like myself get lumped into this as well when such broad definitions are being used.

Do I prefer to be alone/ in a small group most of the time? Hell yes! It's more exclusive and I get more work done. In a social situation, less people means more signal, less noise.

Do I sometimes completely avoid social situations? Of course! But it's solely due to the fact that sometimes, I just can't be arsed to care about dealing with someones trite problems.

When push comes to shove and I need to be social with large groups, there isn't an issue aside from the usual inherent "stage fright", but this is a quality that can affect anyone that doesn't spend the majority of their time as a public speaker.

Some of us exhibit the "qualities" in the article purely by choice, not by challenge. I'm pretty sure at some point in my youth, some poor misguided soul tried to diagnose me with some placement on the spectrum, but I would say that nowadays this incorrect classification is more common than not. Had someone told me every day that I was an autist, maybe I would have ended up exhibiting more of those behaviors simply by association. Maybe we should make a slight effort to stop telling schoolchildren that they're special or different, and more time letting people fend for themselves a bit first.
FairSearch - Anti-Google Astroturf. So what.
I understand that this is something people don't get, but: yes, if you are doing something that can be construed as "doing business" in a country, then you get to be subject to that country's laws regardless of whether you have offices there or have ever set foot on that country's territory.

This is not particularly new. What is new is the general belief I've seen in many people that "but I did it on the internet!" is a magical answer.
This is really not a corner case. Think about it. Every place with daylight saving time will experience a duplicate hour when switching from summer time to winter time. A timestamp given in local time can map to multiple UTC times.

In other words, rounding error.

There's a great story of a histogram of heights in Napoleon's army having two peaks, eliciting all sorts of theories. Reality was that height in the army was normally distributed, but that the data was collected in centimeters and people were looking at a histogram binned by inches. The middle bin contained only two centimeter counts while the bins on either side contained three each, thus having dramatically more counts.

I think it was precisely because of those "shades of grey" characteristics it was decided Aspergers should be eliminated from the new DSM V.

When it gets released this means no-one will be diagnosed with Aspergers (along with other forms of autism) from then on, it will all fall under the same autism umbrella because of the range of the spectrum.

>Is the chain-length of 100 arbitrary, or is there an optimal length of these chains?

100 is the compression ratio. If you make chains of length 100 then you can compress the dictionary 100:1. If you make the chains of length 1000 then you can compress 1000:1 but you have to do 1000 operations for each lookup instead of 100. It's a trade off.

> How many times would you run ORATION through the one-way function and compare it to your rainbow table before you decide it's not in the table?

You presumably know the length of the chains your table used, so if you go through the entire length without finding it then you'll know it really isn't in the table (e.g. Alice just provided a random word instead of one which was the output of the hash function and it turns out no dictionary word leads to the one she provided).
Worse or better, this is certainly different!

Also, it seems to be down below 70 now, so another 50% drop since yesterday, depending on what time you're talking about.
I found this phrase in the article to be chilling: "before stating that she would ask the European Commission to tighten up its regulations on how Internet companies handle their digital platforms."

> it's not like they function any less well than people without Aspergers

Some do. Some people have more severe symptoms; I read an autobiography by an author with Aspergers where she describes being completely overwhelmed by loud noises or too much visual input. And when some schoolyard bullies told her that "We're going to beat you up every day", she accepted it as another rule among many incomprehensible school regulations, and actually went and reminded them if they forgot to beat her up.
Thanks for the tip on isync/mbsync.

I keep coming across velomobiles and they are slick and all, but I would find it hard to justify the price when, as a casual user, all you get over a good €1000 bike is some protection from the elements, while also losing a lot of mobility and parking convenience.

I would rather like to see (recumbent) bikes with a cheap nylon-like soft cover against the wind and rain, that would probably shave a lot of the cost going into the body.
The whole open source eco-system has similar things e.g. Drupal books and so-so online documentation (I can attest to this one), Joomla, WP …. Books are much like doing workshops, they're a shortcut for those who are prepared to pay rather than have to do a lot of online searching.
What is the difference between Sylpheed and Claws? Claws seems to be a fork from the Sylpheed project.
I completely agree. A few months ago, I switched from being ultra busy on my company to taking some time to do what I really enjoy. As a result, I actually get more done now than before.

Dude, you made my day. I'm pretty fascinated by my Gringo stereotypes of Cuba colliding with a programmer on HN.

In all seriousness, I'm curious about the internet situation there. How's the bandwidth these days?
From now, every time I create a new repo, the first commit message is going to be "A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away".
So what are you suggesting people do? Go get a "corporate-ish" job first? Personally, I agree with the sentiment of others: no one is "ready" you just have to try. Going the corporate route first has a high chance of getting you addicted to a steady income. Once that happens you'll probably never be able to do a startup because you can't take the salary hit.
I agree with everything you are saying. If it wasn't for Google+ affecting search results, I wouldn't bother. But Google+ with the tied-in votes and google+ authorship data means websites have to sign up for a proprietary social network. Switch the votes to an open system(or do away with it) and use microdata alone for authorship.

Keep search clean and don't indulge in anti-competitive behaviour.
Perhaps you might clarify your reference. Based on my understanding, RMS is describing the difficulty addressing machine-compatibility between different implementations of a supposedly-similar interface/protocol/specification. The name of a wholly new application doesn't have similar obligations. A person might think about the implications of the name socially, but is still ultimately free to ignore them. Even RMS notes "I would guess that very very few users set POSIXLY_CORRECT [vy8vWJlco: the more socially-congenial name]. If users don't like these decisions (or any others we make), they are free to change them."
( http://www.linuxdevcenter.com/pub/a/linux/2004/12/22/rms_int... ) It's open source, so someone could fork it with a new identity.
Except you can remove the ambiguity by stating either PDT or PST. You don't have that option in 1927 Shanghai.
Another problem my wife and I have run into is lag time: there is a delay between posting things in the MLS and then onto the internet sites. That delay is usually the time it takes for the better deals to have an offer pending on them. Even though the UI of the "official" MLS site that our agent uses sucks compared to sites like zillow and movoto, you can find the cheaper houses before they go pending. Too bad there isn't a filter on the "status" field in the MLS web search (such as, filter out the 1/2 to 2/3 of houses that are already pending???)

That said, Zillow is a wonderful tool to check price/sales history.
Heh, interesting. Thanks for the nugget!

>The Gregorian reformation was adopted by the Kingdom of Great Britain, including its possessions in North America (later to become eastern USA), in September 1752. As a result the September 1752 cal shows the adjusted days missing. This month was the official (British) adoption of the Gregorian calendar from the previously used Julian calendar. This has been documented in the man pages for Sun Solaris as follows. "An unusual calendar is printed for September 1752.
