That's if you want to be a good programmer. But I don't see how programming experience is that relevant to solving a lot of the theoretical problems that exist.
A preference for vinyl does not equate to ignorance of audio technology.

Your article [2] mentions mastering issues. In many cases, the master for the vinyl edition of an album differs significantly from that of the CD or digital release; for example, the vinyl edition may feature less compression, preserving dynamic range.

I haven't seen the DMCA notice. I think the screenshots are the things being DMCAd. If so, they clearly fall under fair use.

Someone should issue a counter notice. And get them put back up.

What's interesting to me is what happens if StackExchange put these back up, and then the cryptocompany sends a DMCA to SE's hosts.

Hacker breaches into Dubai International Airport Database
Hi HN. I recently open sourced a verlet physics engine that I wrote for fun. Four example experiments are in there so far. I have a few other experiment ideas in mind that I hope to get implemented soon. Anyways, it was a blast creating this and thought others might like to look/play with it too.

Cheers
I use gandi for all my domains. Even use their mailbox for 1 domain and haven't had a problem.
I would recommend only gandi to anyone.
The point is that for those of us who are personally affected by the Boston incident, we resent being told that we should care more about the Texas incident, because it is natural that we would be more upset about the incident that personally affected us.

Look, if you know someone that was killed or injured, then it obviously affects you more personally than it would other people, and there's nothing in RMS's statement that says otherwise. And if you were effected, you obviously weren't the intended audience (he was replying to a message to stay inside during Boston's pseudo-curfew). However, if your only connection to the event is your geographical proximity, then that does not grant you some sort of higher-level of emotional standing that the rest of us could not make. Every death of an innocent person is a sad, tragic thing; we don't need to be in Boston to understand that.

"The change of wording wasn't relevant to my point, I was simply trying to summarize his view. Insert "let's make an effort not to get... as an excuse for tyranny" (his actual quote) for the paraphrased quote that I used, and the point still stands: the government's supposed tendency towards tyranny should cause us to resist tyranny, not to temper our emotional reactions to the deaths of community members."

No, you're still taking what he said out of context. And your summarization of this comments is not correct. He did not say "temper", that's your word. He said "[...]let these few upset us disproportionally more than the others." Keyword is 'disproportionally'.

I'm, statistically speaking, more likely to die in a car accident than a terrorist attack. I could die in a car accident tomorrow. My family would be very sad and traumatized. However, I doubt they would stop using cars to get around. In fact, I'd bet they would take a car to the hospital to come get my body. With the Boston attack though, the authorities said everyone should stay inside in the entire city, because of the violence that happened in a few public places. That's the disproportionality that RMS was trying to point out in his statement.

In that you took that he was said you should 'temper' your emotions is no fault of Stallman. You're attempting to parse out an argument that just isn't there.
Re: your portrayal of how Google works...An "over simplification"? It's just plain wrong. Google has, for quite awhile, not depended on sites containing all the words of a query...and natural language processing plays a huge part in analyzing intent of a query.

I applaud this ambitious project but I'm skeptical you'll achieve what you aim for if you're way off the mark in understanding how Google is so successful...I mean, to even talk of replacing Google at this stage -- and saying it's just a matter of providing rich snippets and other ancillary features as if that was your engine's main deficiency compared to Google -- is quite bold and a little cart before horse, IMO

-

Edit: an example...I did a search for my own name, something I do habitually because I'm locked in an eternal struggle with a younger, better looking, more talented namesake for the top Google result. However, your search engine returns neither me nor my singing rival as the top result...instead you return the domain that is my first and last name with a hyphen, which is exactly the superficial result that Google was designed to avoid.
So far as I can tell, no liberty has been given up.

The point of the Miranda warning is to make it crystal-clear that a suspect is aware that he doesn't have to speak to police without a lawyer, and is aware that if he does speak to police, what he says can be used against him. The Miranda warning is not a right; it's literally a warning, meant to save people from their own ignorance of their actual rights.

It also does not mean police can't question someone, just that if they do, and don't observe certain forms, a court may not allow the resulting evidence to be admitted at trial.

In this case, the police are basically going to go ahead with questioning, and let the courts sort out later what's admissible and what's not. Courts have been known to allow non-Mirandized statements obtained in circumstances where some immediate risk made it impractical to give the warning before asking a question.
wouldn't iOS be a better term anyway?
I suspect try it out would only reduce sales further, it adds a delay in the process and gives the customer more chance to change his mind.

Sadly this change broke every script I had which followed the old instructions for putting ack on a box:

curl http://betterthangrep.com/ack-standalone > ~/bin/ack && chmod 0755 !#:3

Now gives a Nginx 302 text/html page. Yes, yes, I should have done curl -L, but those are the instructions they had pasted on the box.

In addition just changing the hostname

curl http://beyondgrep.com/ack-standalone

just gives a 404.
It is nice that you wrote about it.

Unknowingly, I used to think for a few hours (1-3 mostly) daily until I was in college. Never noticed it. But after I got into my first job in 2011, I started missing this time because of 10-11 hours of work and 1 hour drive both ways.
Th idea of WIMP really wasn't "invented" at PARC. That organisation gets way too much credit. They amalgamated several concepts that had been developed since the late 1940's. I'm not suggesting that PARC's work wasn't important, but to blithely dismiss Apple's contribution and suggest that it all started with PARC it ridiculous.

Go and learn about Vannevar Bush and Memex, Ivan Sutherland and Sketchpad, Doug Engelbart and his contributions like the the Mouse and his oN-Line System. The history of modern computing is simply not as black and white as you are trying to portray.

Finally, anyone that has used both Windows 1.0 (and 2.0 for that matter) will tell you just how awful it was, especially when compared to the Macintosh. Microsoft didn't come close to the ideas presented in the Mac until 1990 with Windows 3.0, and arguably it was the 3.1 release in 1992 that was useable.

Anonymous Calls For Internet Blackout On April 22 To Protest CISPA
Now compare both of those to the front page of HN. My current theory is that as the community becomes more popular, the technical content goes down and the social thought-pieces and popular references go up.
The extant differences are not universally thought to be so great as to warrant the dramatically greater public acceptance and promotion that prescription drugs receive in the US. This is not aided by the fact that methamphetamine is itself an FDA-approved treatment for ADHD (http://www.drugs.com/pro/desoxyn.html).

I would agree that "basically just meth" may not be the best way to say describe this, though, as it's only as true as saying they're entirely unlike meth.

Well, assuming "halt_and_catch_fire" is something like error foo or undefined, you're essentially going out of your way to circumvent the type system. It's possible to do it, but it's frowned upon.
But he had the sense to bankroll and not meddle. He had the courage to let Lassiter, Catmull and Co. to run things their way, which has produced some of the finest story telling and animation of the last 100 years. Did he assemble the team? No. Did he help them achieve greatness? I think Pixars portfolio speaks for itself...
So you think Google knows if a piece of content is instructional?

Or know that it is a Review? (not just has a rating)

And you have to have all the words or a synonym of the words. But more importantly Google doesn't know what kind of content something is. Or what questions the content answers. Our system knows "this document answers what do aardvarks eat"

It's embarrassing that Chrome can't do things like address bar in full-screen. Another obvious problem is lack of tab overflow.
this sounds exactly like my country's one and the only one political party - the always great, always glorious, always right CCP.
This is exactly the point being made. Threatening to veto unless minor changes are made is just a way of getting the public to accept a form of something they previously opposed entirely on principle. As the previous commenter said, it's a strategy to erode public opposition. NDAA was augmented and yet indefinite detention without charge is a reality.
Egyptian Cleric: Boston Bombings 'Message to America'
> But most of these stories are around creation of Mac. By that time, Apple was quite successful.

No, not true. Remember that, at the time of the Mac's introduction, the chapter just ending included the sad stories of the Apple /// -- a terrible design and very bad decision on Jobs' part -- and the failed design of the Lisa computer, an obvious Mac predecessor that just didn't work out and another bad Jobs decision. This means the Mac introduction would likely make or break Apple.

The Mac introduction was the turning point for Apple. Had it failed, Apple might also have failed.

> What made Steve so successful when everyone who has worked with him thinks he was a jerk!

That's easy to answer -- chance. What are the chances that someone with terrible interpersonal skills will happen to be colocated with a time and place of technological inevitability? Let's say that chance is p (p = probability). Not an easy number to compute but very small.

Now how many opportunities (n) exist for such a juxtaposition? That runs into the tens of thousands to the millions, depending on which criteria we accept and how much time we allow.

Let's say for the sake of argument that the probability p (for a perfectly unsuitable person to be at the right place at the right time) is equal to 10^-6 and the number of opportunities n is equal to 10^6. On that basis, the chance (c) for exactly one such occurrence is (using the binomial theorem):

c = nCk p^k (1-p)^(n-k) = nCk (10^-6)^k (1-10^6)^(n-k) = 0.3678

( nCk = n! / k!(n-k)! )

The probability for one or more successes in that same scenario:

c = sum(nCk p^k (1-p)^(n-k),k,1,oo) = 0.63212

Not at all unlikely. People who describe Jobs as a twisted but essential genius, and assert that it's the only possible explanation, don't understand probability.
Stallman is a God Tier troll.

He is sincere. He is mostly right. (He's predicted quite a lot of the modern computing ecology). He is extreme.

His one post will generate many posts from polarised commenters, sometimes those threads will devolve into bitter angry flames.

Everyone already knows this.

Yet it still happens.

It's amazing. God Tier.
Indeed. " The commitment to this rule is so strong that the Supreme Court has recognized only one exception to the Miranda rule"

So, not much of a commitment at all. I am so committed to my wife that I only recognize one exception to my marriage vows: if I get a chance with a really attractive woman, then not only can I do it, but I can charge my wife for the cost of dinner.
Does it support garbage collection ? Last time I checked it didn't.
Just curious, but why can't you simply disable ads on those kinds of searches? Also, having no results for this seems inexplicable:

What is a casual user supposed to think when a new search engine claims that there are no results whatsoever for "Sex" on the Internet, period?
>So you think Google knows if a piece of content is instructional?

Yes.

Yes.

You don't think Google knows how to classify content?
If they cared so much about public safety, they should be willing to disregard a bit of testimony to get it.

It's insane that confessions are admissible at all really, since they are almost always false.
Looks great, thanks for sharing. One thing I would suggest is to not worry about rendering the physics on the canvas, threejs is good at what it does and lacks a good physics engine. It's just my opinion, but I think the project would benefit from either making it work with threejs or by not solving the render problem, and just focus on doing great physics, so that people can use the results in their threejs scenes.

Great work though
Re: open source -- What would benefit the community would be a simple blog post highlighting what works and what doesn't in the common NLP libraries.

It's hard to believe those libraries suck in their entirety (I use NLTK to do automatic categorization and it works reasonably well). Just listing areas of improvements (and where to begin) would go a long way.

Of course it would take some of your time, but it seems you have done this work already, so all you need is to write it down. And I think it would buy you a lot of goodwill, whereas simply bragging that your technology is "light years ahead" of everyone else simply raises expectations... that your product'd better meet! ;-)
Wouldn't public safety be better served if the police granted him grand-jury-style immunity from "using his statements as evidence" in exchange for getting information about other bombs?

From "Accurate Garbage Collection with LLVM" [1]:

"LLVM’s intermediate representation provides garbage collection intrinsics that offer support for a broad class of collector models.

[...] We hope that the primitive support built into the LLVM IR is sufficient to support a broad class of garbage collected languages including Scheme, ML, Java, C#, Perl, Python, Lua, Ruby, other scripting languages, and more.

However, LLVM does not itself provide a garbage collector — this should be part of your language’s runtime library. LLVM provides a framework for compile time code generation plugins. The role of these plugins is to generate code and data structures which conforms to the binary interface specified by the runtime library. This is similar to the relationship between LLVM and DWARF debugging info, for example. The difference primarily lies in the lack of an established standard in the domain of garbage collection — thus the plugins.

[...]
On the plus side, this means that you should be able to integrate LLVM with an existing runtime. On the other hand, it leaves a lot of work for the developer of a novel language. However, it’s easy to get started quickly and scale up to a more sophisticated implementation as your compiler matures."

1. I never said the commenter above didn't have ADHD.

2. There's nothing we can do to help him other than say "just do it" because frankly if he doesn't "just do it" pretty soon he's fucked.

3. ADHD 1/3 scapegoat 1/3 misdiagnosed 1/3 ? maybe. Neurological evidence for disease? Yes. Vague diagnostic criteria for actual patients? Check.
Out of curiosity, what are the more serious conditions that have similar symptoms to ADD in the beginning?
Sounds like a bad idea to me. Even though Num doesn't have an explicit contract, we sort of expect it to behave "nicely".

But here we start with a nice ring like Integer and end up with a type that has this weird, extra element that has no inverse with respect to addition, etc.
I am more curious about traffic. does your search engines provide traffic like google to site?
Watsi is great.

I really hope this model gets extended by other people to cover things like community development.

EG "This village wants to build a wash block. They'll charge people to use it, so it'll be self-maintaining. The benefits of sanitation are clear, here's the evidence base. But they need $X to build it. Here are the costed plans so far."

Add some video commentary before, during, and after and I think it'd be pretty good.
Recharged, Boeing’s Dreamliner gets cleared for takeoff

The new, improved battery system's design has been altered to prevent the sort of fault that led to the Boston fire and the failure of a battery on an All Nippon Airways 787 in January. There is added insulation between each cell to prevent a short-circuit within the lithium-ion cells from cascading to others.

Even if the battery does fail and overheat, Boeing officials said, its new sealed steel enclosure system, with cooling and venting, will prevent a fire and contain the problem to the battery itself, protecting the rest of the aircraft. As part of testing, propane was used to create a small explosion inside the enclosure, which was successfully kept contained within it. Boeing claims that the enclosure will not only isolate a possible battery failure from the rest of the aircraft's components, but that passengers won't even notice if a failure occurs.

There are some unanswered questions that remain. Boeing was never able to replicate the failure that caused the Japan Air Lines 787 to catch fire in its tests of the old design. And considering that the original reason Boeing selected lithium-ion batteries for the 787 was their relatively low weight, the additional provisions would seem to cancel out much of the benefit of the technology.

Then you think wrong.

Google can't tell that something is instructions. That's not something they do. It may know that ehow has a lot of pages with How To on them, but it doesn't know if those are pages with step by steps for how to do something, nor does it know that Rotten Tomatoes has pages with Opinions and Points, and conclusions that make up a review.

Steve Jobs didn't have the ideas. The ideas came from others -- Xerox PARC, Steve Wozniak, Jef Raskin, others, and to a lesser extent, me. But he did know how to sell other people's ideas and get people passionate about them. Promotion was his talent. He was the Willy Loman of the late 20th century.
You know how this works right? Everyone will call crap until the CEO is not doing well. Once the company shows signs of improving, they will immediately talk about the radical things they did and how they told you so.

This is a really great point. Abstracting it away shouldn't be bad, and it is possible to extend by vec2 implementation to 3d. After I finish my next batch of examples I will venture down this path.

Thank you for the feedback!
This smells really funny. They could have buried this instead of going to court (with a 1+ year delay!) and committing PR seppuku by making this public and giving their clients a reason of distrust. Now, this is indeed the right thing to do, the guy shouldn't go unpunished and they should disclose their security breach, but if they are doing it for the "right" reasons, why is it 1 year later?
Well, libraries are probably the largest reason, as providing access to native libraries is much harder (if possible at all) on LLVM due to the lack of reflection in C or C++.

Aside from libraries, other reasons for it being unpopular include JIT compilation being slow for LLVM (compared to hand rolled implementations) lack of a mature GC infrastructure (for decent performance, iirc you are best off rolling your own with little/no help from LLVM) and general difficulties with the performance of compiled code for dynamic languages (many of its optimizations, e.g. LICM, TBAA, etc are unsuitable for dynamic languages. Other optimizations get tripped up by type guards, and cant do much useful work). Not to mention that LLVM is huge, and it can be a painful dependancy (especially given the above)

Another problem for LLVM as a portable platform is that LLVM bytecode is, well, not portable. I mean, how could it be? It must be able to encode the semantics of C, which is inherently non-portable (especially after e.g. sizeof has been replaced with machine dependant sizes).

That's not to say LLVM is not awsome, because it is--very much so. But LLVM's design goals have never included being a platform, as thats likely at odds with it being a great compiler for languages like C/C++. (Maybe not, but it certainly seems that way to me)

Edit: just realized you said apart from libraries. Rephrased some stuff to highlight other points
