The public doesn't know about good security work, unfortunately sometimes the police doesn't either. In most security work your objective isn't too win, it's not to loose.

This video[0] is a perfect example. It's was taken during some parade in Northern Ireland. The rioters are trying to break through police lines and, well, generally riot. Observe how the police at the top of the screen at 0:25 looses his temper and tries to go after the person in the blue hoodie. This would be an example of trying to win. He's hitting you, you want to hit him back. The problem is that you are quickly going to loose control over the situation. Worst case scenario individual officers find themselves surrounded, the line is broken, everything turns pear-shaped. This would be loosing. In this case the officer behind him quickly pulls him back in the line and talks him down. In the short term you haven't won, but more importantly you haven't lost.

Also look at the crowds reaction at 0:30 as they become even more aggressive. It's boring to fight someone who doesn't fight back. As a bonus, also look at 1:10 how the rioters form a "human chain" to not get grabbed by the police. Each person is holding the one in front of him to be able to pull him back.

Good catch, will do!
I imagine cars are tested for max speeds much like ropes and carabiners are given weight ratings. The governor probably enforces these ratings because although your car could go faster, things might start breaking. Faster internet speeds aren't going to melt your CPU.
My point is, that there are scenarios when closed messaging networks are acceptable, and there are scenarios when they aren't, but despite of that, people tolerate them in case of IM, which allows various messaging services to get away with it. I said that I really don't understand why that happens, since in case of e-mail they don't tolerate it.

Hangouts, FB messaging and etc. are generic cases, not the ones which should be acceptable as confined environments (like your example of the forum messaging).
I've used T-Mobile for the last 4 years. Generally pretty happy with them - their customer service is unobtrusive and generally pretty good, website is solid, plans are reasonable. I think I did accept a 1-year contract when I upgraded to unlimited voice + data + texting, but the initial plan wasn't contract-based.

Coverage in the Bay Area is great. Out east it tends to be a bit spottier than most of the other networks - in rural areas or inside certain malls my relatives on AT&T or Verizon might get service but I won't. They're generally fine in major urban areas and around major highways, but somewhat sparser on the long tail.
netvibes.com is free and good, just wish they would implement showing youtube embeds properly, other than that it does what I want

I signed in/up using Google, and it's busy importing my feeds right now, and they appear to be going into folders.

I don't see a way to arrange the folders though, which would be a big plus. If I can force an order through some naming convention that's OK too.
I have had great experience being on T-mobile for about 5 years. Their customer service is exceptional and they also allow you to unlock your phone after 3 months.

However there are a couple of things that do irritate me:

[1] They sniff the header of every web-request looking for desktop browser string. If found they sent you a warning text threatening to cut off your service. It sucks especially when you move to a new home with no immediate internet service and want to tether for a few days.

[2] Non-existent domains redirect to a page with ads (Similar to OpenDNS). Sucks on a mobile since you have to wait for it to load to find out while adding to your data usage.
it should have been "ultrasound" instead of "supersonic" ;)

> > Note: In order for opt-out to work properly, you need to accept a "cookie" indicating that you have opted out of this service. If you use a program that removes cookies, you will have to repeat this opt-out process when the cookie is deleted. The cookie placed on your computer will contain the site name: "http://tmob.search-help.net.

Do you have more information about how this works? I cannot imagine how a cookie would affect whether the DNS server returns NXDOMAIN. The site could possibly do it by IP but then the cookie wouldn't need to exist. If opting out just changes the ads to a 404 that is still DNS hijacking.

The DNS server needs to return NXDOMAIN if a domain does not exist. Nothing else.
These dating/find-a-friend services that require Facebook show up often on HN, and like clockwork are berated because they are Facebook-only (and the privacy issues that go along with it).

Yet people keep making them. Am I correct to deduce they are popular and there is market for them, and that it's only HN that hates them?

kweks: Posts start on 'new', and only rise to the front page if they get enough traction. Unfortunately, yours has been missed so far.
T-Mobile includes the personal hotspot at no extra charge. I just switched from AT&T too and have been really happy so far. My phone only gets Edge speeds right now, only because they haven't "reframed" their cell towers yet. (not exactly sure what that entails, but I understood it to mean that after reframing my phone would be on 4G, have better reception, etc.)
No, but you might negatively impact the user experience of someone else in your cell sector. It's about system design. Your phone is just a way to access AT&T's wireless network. As the designer of that system, AT&T is entitled to control how your devices access it to optimize overall performance.

>Indeed. And much like high-speed highway driving, if my iphone 4s were to use its full internet bandwidth, i would be a mortal danger to my fellow man. Oh wait.

It would be a total annoyance of your fellow subscribers to the same network. Maybe not a car accident, but a lot like traffic congestion.

I mean, since capacity does not grow on trees, and it is not that easy or cheap to expand it.
We need to be careful with the details here. There are a lot of scenarios that might fit your description:

1. An innocuous imageboard where someone posts child pornography, but the moderators quickly remove it.

2. A dedicate child pornography forum where people gain access to "higher levels" by posting more child pornography.

3. A peer-to-peer network, where by connecting to the network a person contributes to its operation, and where some child pornography can be found (but plenty of other files as well).

I do not think we would want to see people prosecuted for downloading child pornography in the first case (maybe for uploading it); that would allow anyone to poison any forum they want. On the other hand, we clearly do want to prosecute people for the second scenario, as it pretty clearly encourages more child pornography to be produced.

What about the last one? On the one hand, there is an exchange occurring -- by connecting to the network, someone is providing increased bandwidth and potentially increases the anonymity of the system, both of which likely benefit a child pornography producer. On the other hand, if we prosecute people for that, we would effectively outlaw many of the protocols in use on the Internet right now, and make criminals out of the millions of users/operators of those systems.

Personally, I would make a requirement that the defendant's actions directly encourage the production of child pornography, and that the defendant knowingly undertook those actions for the purpose of obtaining child pornography. Yes, it is a high bar, but that is how the American criminal justice system is supposed to work (cannot speak for other countries) -- the bar is supposed to be high, as a protection from tyranny.

There is another ongoing backup of Google Reader's feed cache: http://www.archiveteam.org/index.php?title=Google_Reader and the data is landing at Internet Archive.

(If anyone has a dedicated server with a high transfer cap, we could really use for temporary storage and uploading to IA. Email in profile.)

For anyone else doing an independent backup, you can get more than 1000 items by using ?r=n&n=1000 and following the continuation in the JSON response with a ?c= URL parameter. And keep in mind that Google doesn't canonicalize feed URLs for the same content, so you have to grab all of them.
Very cool. I sign in/up using my Google account, and the import is chugging along.

One of the things a liked about Reader was that I could get a very simple, compact, list of feed headlines, making it easy to scan through a large number of items to pick out the few that might be of interest. A good RSS read helps me get through a lot of data without having to step through every item or go through pages with only a handful of items showing on each.

I did not see a way to get such a layout in Yoleo. Are simple, compact title list views possible, or planned?
Or how about this... There's a hidden pot and every user can only contribute the same amount of money (say $1) to the pot. This way, the value of the pot would more likely reflect the community consenus of issue value to the project.

There is an excellent guide on the Android site covering this: http://developer.android.com/training/efficient-downloads/ef... (and it really applies to iPhones also)
Lisp compilers came into existence relatively early after interpreter, because of performance. And early compilers and interpreters had important differences in semantics, what everyone today means by "lisp" was in that day the behavior of compiled code, not interpreted (ie. dynamic vs. lexical scoping). The real value of first implementations of scheme was that they had shown that same semantics as were implemented by lisp compilers could be implemented by reasonably fast interpreter. And today there is Newlisp which has impressive performance for interpreted implementation, because it implements similar semantics as early interpreted lisps.
He was quoting the carriers, though I could see how the statement could get misconstrued:

However, from previous statements released by AT&T and many tech orginizations, iPhones are very complex devices with a very complex OS. The OS eats much more data, even when in idle mode, than most phones on the market. So by carrier request, Apple limits devices to "even out" the network, even if it means Galaxy users out perform Apple devices by such large scales.
"And the idea behind targeting the consumers of child porn is really quite simple. If we can agree that creating sexual videos of a minor constitutes abuse, then those who purchase the tapes are supporting the abuse."

Shouldn't the crime be purchasing child pornography? A person could consume child pornography without purchasing it, in secret, without contributing to its production at all. Say, someone who downloads it from a peer to peer network.
Will the telephone spontaneously combust if it downloads too fast?
I hadn't actually tried using the opt-out, but I did think it was impossible for it to work as described. I tried it just now, and it just replaces the ads with a 404. So it would be more correct to say "There is no opt-out for the DNS hijacking."

>Faster internet speeds aren't going to melt your CPU.

Not, but they are going to melt the network.

Isn't it obvious, especially to a technical crowd like HN? And yet, you didn't mention this issue. Why?
I don't really pay attention to names and have never felt a desire to block or even ignore anyone.

Now that I think about HN extensions, I could really use something that correlates articles and HN discussions in both directions.

More than once I've read something sourced elsewhere and ended up doing a site:news.ycombinator.com search to look find discussion for the same.
The only strict requirement is the baguette style bread.
No.

You would have been correct to deduce that young 20-something people who are trying to scratch an itch keep thinking that a better dating site (as measured by one that can get them dates) is a real need, and the FB tie-in is an obvious way to do it.

They keep failing for the reasons that are pointed out on HN. And since they fail, not long after someone else looking around for an itch to scratch says, "Why doesn't someone make a better dating site using FB? Doesn't seem like anyone has done it yet. And HN is the perfect place to get feedback on it!"
Having two AT&T iPhone 5's on our plan, I can in no way corroborate your experience. Looking at the history for one of these phones, it has entire plan months that remain below the lowest data plan threshold. Seriously, there's a problem that needs resolving. Search the web, hit up AT&T support and/or an Apple store, etc.
As someone who checks his usage daily I can assure you that if you are on Wifi you should not see your data plan used at all.

It is a little strange to think about. Most people experience some depression in their lives so things like chronic depression are easier to understand through your own experience.

It is strange to think that someone who is 'always so happy' gets depressed. Not that they are hiding that depression under their cheer but that the cheer and depression are genuine states that manifest very powerfully. It just isn't something that most people go through.
In Singapore, using LTE (Singtel), I could get 30Mbps up/down, and around 30-40 ms latency on my iPhone 5.

I see that now we are going to have debates among different columnists who write for medium.com, which may spice up the content a bit. I agree with this author more than I agreed with the last author, who wrote decrying Facebook. Sure, I have been careful to select friends for their capacity to maintain civil, thoughtful conversation, but now that I have a circle of friends like that, living in countries around the world, Facebook is a convenient medium for all of us to have conversations on. I like Facebook because I see my friends there.

I have written before here on Hacker News, "Facebook will go the way of AOL, still being a factor in the industry years from now, but also serving as an example of a company that could never monetize up to the level of the hype surrounding it." I used to see friends on AOL. I never felt an obligation to help AOL monetize just because of that. Networks are a dime a dozen. Right now, Facebook is a very convenient network, and I like it. I do not predict that Facebook will make a lot of money because of users like me.
the spelling of this name bothers me..
Most dating services allow you to join using any e-mail address, but with that comes a lot of problems such as fake accounts, spam, data mining, creepy behavior because of anonymity, no real ability to ban someone, etc.

Using Facebook solves many problems that we'd rather stick with it--I have no idea how many users we're missing out on. Probably a lot. I would say only use Facebook if it makes sense for your product and your users, and it doesn't for everyone. The mistake most FB-connected dating companies make (and why most people don't like them) is they abuse the implicit trust. They post stuff to people's walls or activity feeds because they're trying to grow quickly. As long as you don't do that, I think you'll develop enough trust with people for them to recommend you to their friends.

I'm on T-Mobile, but I'm not going to lie: Verizon has a superior network. All that 700mhz LTE is amazing. However, T-Mobile's network is fine for me (their DC HSPA network really does approach LTE speeds at times), and they more than make up for it with things that I also care about that you mentioned.
UX Testing for iOS
This even works smoothly on my HTC One X (International) running Firefox Aurora with only occasional frame drop. Amazing.
As someone on AT&T now but whose contract has expired, I read stuff like this with great interest. I tested my friend's iphone 5 last week here and he was getting 22mb d/l and 10mb u/l. I could swear at AT&T a whole lot but still enjoy those speeds.
Is the browser sniffing still an issue? What sort of plan are you on? T-Mobile changed some things last month (http://www.tmonews.com/2013/04/t-mobile-will-begin-bundling-...). You may be able to shift to a plan that includes (limited) tethering at no real cost.

The default includes only 500MB of "high speed" tethered data, but you can add higher amounts.
The specification has already reached "draft", so it's usually pretty stable at that point. Firefox has actually included generators for awhile now (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Guid...), but their implementation is based on JavaScript 1.7, rather than ES6. The end implementation was pretty close, but didn't include the function* syntax (I don't believe they implemented yield* either). Regarding timeline, that's obviously hard to guess at from an external perspective, but most browser vendors seem to be comfortable enough with developing against draft-level specs, so hopefully soon.

We never started with the thought "why don't we use FB to build a dating site." Facebook is simply a means to solve a lot of different problems that come up in dating, and it ends up providing a better experience. That's all we care about.
Impressive! It's really amazing to see how OpenGL can enrich the web if it's used right. A few years ago I'd never have guessed shaders could be used in a browser.

I have little experience with Javascript projects, so can I ask why the name Seriously? Wouldn't a more descriptive name cover the contents? Also, why is the main source file 4K lines long? That's a little off-putting.
FreedomPop Announces Free Mobile Service
The absolutely best way to avoid any problem with stolen bitcoins is to use Master Public Key (MPK) to generate bitcoin addresses for customers to send money to.
Electrum wallet (electrum.org) supports MPK.
MPK allows generation of bitcoin addresses programmatically in a "receive only" way, without private keys.
This way - even if hackers totally break into your server and online store database and steal everything - not a single bitcoin can possibly be stolen.

Real life implementation of this concept:

It's really unfortunate that the data is presented at such a high level of aggregation.

It would be so much better to have individual level data (perhaps with personal info such as age, etc. removed) so other people could do their own analysis (e.g. clustering).

I don't want this to be interpreted as criticism of Bert Vaux and his colleagues: there is incentive in academia to not share data, since you get credited for the uniqueness of your work, and get no credit for collecting data used by others. I just hope the situation changes.
Does it have nested folders? That would be very helpful for my feeds (scientific journals).
That is subject to interpretation, but I disagree. If you can't consider your creation myth to be a metaphor, a nice back-story, or whatever... then basically you are unwilling or unable to budge on what should be a pretty uncontested point. Maybe you are progressive on other fronts, but at least in that regard you are a fundamentalist.

I would say that fundamentalist does not imply creationist (you'll find fundamentalist Roman Catholics for instance), but creationist does imply fundamentalist. Creationism is one of many fundamentalist stances.
Tinder requires sign in with FB but still seems awfully popular. They make sure to make it clear before and after sign up that they'll never spam your wall, which is very important. Few young people are willing to admit that they do online dating, there's still quite a stigma attached.
LOL, my old core2 duo has both cpus running over 80% on Ubuntu with a GeForce GTX260. But when I click on another tab, with the video still playing on a non-visible tab in Chrome, the cpus drop to around 20%. When I click on the video tab again, the cpu ramps up to the 80% mark again. Neat trick.
