Anecdotally, I suspect the Americans are more interested.

American TV personality Barbara Walters interviewed a Kate Middleton lookalike--a waitress who is not pregnant--about how the baby was doing.
Provider-issued set top boxes and routers are scarier, IMO.
It's a trade-off. You can either use direct mutation using some sort of impure reference type, or use a pure mutation using first class accessor labels.

Impure references are probably easier to use, but are harder to reason about and allow for more subtle bugs in your code. Accessor labels require a bit more trickery, but give a more principled approach and result in code that is less error-prone and easier to compose.

Haskell doesn't force you in any of those directions. Pick the approach that bests fits your domain and likings. Personally I'm convinced pure code is a way better default, however for certain domains I certainly resort to using `IORef`s, `TVar`s, etc.
Move to an ISP that allows this. Talk talk have an opt-in network level filter for example.
The space man with Parkinson's
If I'm remembering my history right, there were two main reasons for the name. It was, in part, a callback to the older, defunct, Democratic-Republican party that had been around in the early US.

It was also a mild dig against the Democratic party, implying that their support of slavery stood against republican ideals.
You list that as two separate things.

We don't directly finance the royal family although various members get paid very well for various public engagements.

Tax avoidance implies breaking the law. The tax arrangements with the royal family reflect the unique position as de facto holders of much UK "public" property. This is being sorted out with the separation of Crown Property and the various family member's private property and the definition of state / private events. As this is resolved, the royal family take on a greater tax burden. The Queen has been paying income tax for decades.

People seem to separate the Royal Family from other rich and powerful people in the country. They all got there the same way, playing the game of capitalism (in which inheritance / nepotism is inherent)) better than us. If the UK dropped its monarchy, these people wouldn't just disappear. They would still be massively rich. They would still, fortunately, act as a tourist magnet (although probably to a lesser degree). They would still be plastered all over the papers.

And we'd probably end up replacing them with some voted in leader to the 2nd house. Cue more politicians and even worse media frenzy. Woot!
Opinion: Why Is the UK the Most Censored Nation in Europe?
Why do you need to mutate things in order to write a program? Operational programming may have damaged your brain.

(With regards to lenses, note that: This isn't mutating anything, and it's not a metaprogramming "hack" either. Functions as first-class entities instead of opaque blobs of code is one of the big wins of functional programming.)
I wanted to review something using Google and they prompted me to make a Google + account with my real name etc. I think reviews can be more useful when there is not the pressure to be overly optimistic about everything, calling everything "great" for the sake of seeming like a cheery kind of person
Exactly. Many "Show HNs" never make it to the homepage, so I launched this subreddit to focus just on sharing and receiving feedback on those type of projects. If you subscribe to r/SideProject, you will be able to keep track of these projects.
Apple Reportedly Testing Bigger iPhone And iPad Screens
Signed up for FB with a fake account to do a client job. No friends or anything. Every couple of days, they send an email with random people I might know. Never heard of any of them. Got sick of it, so I signed in to cancel the notifications I'd missed. They sent me a "welcome back" notification because I'd signed in. Deleted the account.
I think a more notable example included in that is A Clockwork Orange, which clearly depicts (simulated) rape. Is this classic now going to be illegal to distribute online in the UK?
If there is one thing these leaks have done then it is to register in the mind of the general public that these institutions are not just benign clubs of mathematicians that boldly crack evildoer codes that no man has cracked before but that they are collecting any kind of data they can get their hands on, including yours, to decide later on if it was useful or not.

The fact that that alone and the potential consequences are now (slowly) sinking in to the public consciousness made these leaks more than worth it.

That debate needs to be had and it needs to be had in the open, the hypocrisy of politicians (Merkel comes to mind) when they address the subject is telling.

That 'terrorists' (who are these guys anyway, didn't you mean criminals) are using the leaked info is a statement of fact which is hard to falsify (terrorists won't own up to it) and probably even harder to prove so it should carry very little or no weight at all.
It doesn't impact revenue negatively, as users using ad blockers are more likely to be annoyed by or immune to ads, having an impact on the publisher's ranking in its relation to advertisers. Publishers are ranked based on the quality of the conversions they provide, whether it's views, clicks or actions. A lower ranking translates in lower earnings per view, click or action.

I stand by my point, ad blockers are a net win for publishers and advertisers.
In modern English, republic and democrat are virtually synonymous.
I think it's quite interesting how uniform are the murder rates across western europe.
I found this gist while modularizing our medium sized Angular application. It was a day's work to get the requireJS basics going for our app. That was a pleasant surprise. The additional r.js optimization step cost a bit more time, and that was indeed partly due to documentation issues.
OK, but 'republicanism' is just the ideal opposed to monarchy (or similar arbitrary or hereditary rule). It's not a peculiarity of UK usage (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucretia).
javascript "module" dependencies are written in javascript, not in html renderer.

in development:

<script data-main="your-module.js" src="require.js"></script>

in production:

<script src="your-module.min.js"></script>

One problem I haven't solved is when html renderer writes inputs to your javascript module. I can either print my module's main body in html:

<script>
require(['yourModule'], function(yourModule) {
var config = {% server template vars %};
yourModule.start(config);
});
</script>

Or use global config variable and shim.

I'm glad I knew the context when reading that comment ;)
No, 'evasion' implies breaking the law.

I think the parent was referring specifically to Prince Charles and the Duchy of Cornwall's curious tax affairs. As you say, the rest of the rest pay tax.
Interesting. Do you think generically retargeting anyone looking for directions to a courthouse would be kosher?
| mutating a nested struct requires a separate package and metaprogramming hacks.

But it doesn't. And you would have known this if only you had read the fucking article.

data Position = Position { x :: Int, y :: Int }
data Player = Player { pos :: Position }

moveRight :: Int -> Player -> Player
moveRight n (Player (Position x y)) = Player (Position (x + n) y)

Mr Cameron tells us that he's terrified of what his children can access online. You'd think with access to some of the UK's most intelligent brains he'd be able to master parental guidance of internet usage without legislating it.

Isn't this just telling parents that the internet will suddenly be safe, a government sanctioned message to that effect is quite a bit stronger than your ISPs salesperson. Of course, the filter will either resemble China or have holes so assuming the latter any responsible parent will still want to monitor their children's usage.

The effect of this law seems to be constrained to making David Cameron (and other not-very-technically-knowledgeable parents) feel that he's a responsible parent, but to be honest I'd rather taxpayers pay for a nanny for him than for this ridiculous law - cheaper and much more effective.
Thanks! Corrected. You're right that it isn't equivalent. There is no substantial effort afaik to only rid one of the branches of government (executive, legislative, judicial), so the secession movement is the closest I can think of to the UK's Republican party, which really isn't that close at all.

I want to see the detailed metastudies that clearly suggest exposure to internet porn does significant damage to kids.

I also want to know why this has to be enforced by the nanny state, rather than provided for by already available software? Do the parents have no responsibility?

Actually, since this government likes to full-on lie about evidence [0] let's just wait until we have a chance to throw these demagogue idiots out.

I see, thanks for clarifying.

I don't know much about early US history, I think I'll dig in, because having democrats being pro slavery and republicans anti slavery is something I wouldn't have expected.

For Non-UK readers, the Wikipedia article is a little dry.

There is little "serious" republican activity within the UK, the general idea is that it is a massive vote loser, with minimal gains as politicians already get elected etc.

There are regular and increasing stories noting Charles' unsuitability for the post (using his position to lobby for his personal preferences in architecture, alternative medicine etc). This is mostly anti-charles than anti-monarch.

Until the Queen marches into Parliament to arrest and behead Cameron, we are unlikely to have any serious debates on Republicanism, and if she actually did that most of us would be on the streets asking her not to just stop at the PM ...
Most terrorist attacks in the US are by US citizens, such as bombing of abortion clinics and the like. I doubt that the Snowden leaks are likely to change their frequency that much, especially when compared to other factors.
Oops, stupid mistake. Point stands that Apple gain a lot, but thanks for pointing that out.
> fix the Gmail UI.

They just tried recently.

I'd like to stop using GMail, but there aren't worthy competitors (free, large, mostly reliable). My ISP (which is a major one) sucks at mail compared to Google.
Particularly, filters run by government. If private companies struggle to do this, imagine how poorly a team of bureaucrats will be at this.
> Some of this is welcome – the statement about making it a criminal offence to possess images depicting rape sounds a good idea on the face of it, for example, for such material is deeply offensive

Are you fucking kidding me? What's with this pseudo-shamanistic idea that viewing a picture of an act makes you a participant in it? Has everybody lost their mind?

A criminal offence. Stop making up thought crimes, you authoritarian zealots!
Taxpayers give too. They just don't get much/any credit for it.

When the government's taking over 50c of every euro you earn, you are giving plenty.
You're welcome! But basically, there's no gauarantee that the data collected in advance on people, you know in case a name comes up later and you don't want to do a ton of investigations to uncover the dirty secrets, aren't used in these ways.

Maybe that's Hoover 2.0?
The point isn't anywhere near as clever as you think it is.
Step 1: Introduce a system and infrastucture for handling online censorship. In the name of "think of the children".

Step 2: Promise with your hand on your heart that this new censorship-machine will never be used for antidemocratic or subsidiary reasons, like saving the governments ass next time we have some of those pesky leaks showing massive government violations going on.

There is no step 3.
Not recommended for new systems: Mostly because it's slow (vs. AES), and 3DES is effectively 112 bits, which is a bit weaker than you'd want for a new system deployed today (which might be in service for...20-30 years?)

I don't know of any attacks on DES better than brute force and on 3DES better than brute force w/ meet-in-the-middle.

And rightly so. If this goes through, i'd like to see the ISPs add a line item to everyone's bill calling this out in plain sight to all their customers. "This month you paid an extra #1.75 to cover the costs of Government censorship infrastructure we're required to purchase / install / maintain.
My comment might involve a certain mount of hyperbole. In this case, it is exactly lumping all of HN together for the sake of making a point.

I see this as a function of self-reflexion and self-critique, which no functioning system in my opinion can do without. Don't forget that I am also a member of this site, I read the articles, I vote and I post. This obviously suggests that HN is not homogenous but instead can serve as a platform for differing opinions. I do think, however, that my hyperbole describes a certain active (and, dare I say very vocal?) portion of the posters here.

If you (and some of the other posters who have replied below) don't fall within that group then that is a good thing.

Goodbye Google Analytics. Hello Piwik
The UK's republican movement doesn’t want to get rid off a branch of government, but merely wants to change how the person to occupy a certain position is chosen. The actual effect of abolishing the UK monarchy on politics would be close to zero.
Awesome thanks! It could had been great to pass a couple of levels just for the experience, but my online registration looked very very empty compared to the curriculums that you mention. Did you prepare for the tests?, I don't recall if there was any kind of study list available.
I would learn Common Lisp. It's not strongly tied to a paradigm like Haskell. For the same reason I'd stay away from Clojure. I think forcing a particular view or paradigm makes a language less "exotic".

CL molds itself to the paradigm and problem domain with no bias. It allows ultimate macro power even over other Lisp dialects.

There are efficient compilers. It's not tied to the JVM so you can deploy native, but there is a JVM alternative if you want it.
Twitter Plans to Fight Child Porn Using Microsoft’s PhotoDNA Technology
I think you'd be a lot safer doing it from outside the jurisdiction of the court in question. I really don't know -- it seems like jury tampering/contempt of court have a lot of power and rely on the judge being not an utter tool, which often breaks down. Going to jail and eventually winning some legal challenge is something I'd personally consider a failure, but others are willing to do.
Is that a crack concerning the state of US politics? :-)

I'm not sure that's quite right, but I see your point. 'Republic' in modern parlance indicates a democracy with an elected head of state. There are many democracies with monarchs, but constitutionally they have little or no power.

For extra comedy points, the American Republican party formed largely from the American Whig party, which named itself after the British Whig party, which is today known in the UK as the Liberal Democrats.
A&A are great, they've also fought tooth and nail against lame "Great Firewall" projects and the three-strikes p2p aberration.

I really wanted to give them money, but they can't use the Virgin cable network. My BT copper line goes over a far-west-style pole, because XIX-century northern terraces weren't exactly built for telecom geeks, so ADSL is no match for the underground early-1990s coax laid by NTL (now Virgin). When I'll move somewhere with a decent copper link, I'll probably go with A&A straight away; yes they are expensive, but it's not always about the bottom line.
Some innovations spread fast. How do you speed the ones that don’t?
Mobile providers already provide this filtering. I have to keep asking for "Content Lock" (or somesuch) to be removed when I renew my 3g mobile broadband dongle.

If that's all he wants it seems trivially easy to supply it. I'm gently surprised the ISPs haven't already done so. That way they'd have a simple example to point to when the government asks for more stuff. "Look, we already did the filter, and it's hopeless, but it's what you asked for. Trust us on this - what you're asking for can be done, but should not be done."

It's the classic example of clueless people asking the wrong question. "How can I do $THIS?" "Well, you can do $THIS, but no-one in their right minds would do this because it's stupid. You could do $THAT, and $OTHER, which is better and covers most of what you want without so much stupid." Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to be working with UK Gov.
Close anyway. One extra 'e'.
I hate to state the obvious rebuttal, but: maybe the programs were working? Maybe that's why Obama didn't cut them. Maybe he decided he couldn't be the guy to pull the plug and have $avg_fatalities people die every year. Maybe.

On the other hand, you would think he would say so if that were the case.
I think society as a whole is a bit too hard on pedophiles. Even rapists have an outlet to relieve their sexual frustration and can go to counseling without still being called a monster.

Pedophilia is just like any other sexual orientation. It is not something you just turn off, pedophiles need counseling and ways to relieve their sexual frustration. Things like CG porn and Lolicon for example should be legal. It is just not realistic to tell pedophiles to just stop and then put them in prison for the rest of their lives when they act on their desires, they will most likely be stabbed because even among criminals pedophilia is the worst of the worst and you are more likely to be stabbed if you raped a 15 year old than a 16 year old.

And this whole argument that watching fake rape porn will turn you into a rapist is bullshit. It is just like the argument that violent video games turn you into a violent person.
You can ask them for an L2TP connection, using Virgin as a pure bearer to the AA network and breaking out from there. Clearly any usage caps from Virgin will still apply, but the IP provision will be from people who know what they're doing.

Use browserify — http://browserify.org

Compared to require.js browserify has the following benefits:

* CommonJS module format which is less verbose than AMD

* it uses node_modules/ dir to load dependencies from so

* ... you can use npm to install dependencies

* ... and if you use Node.js then that facilitates code sharing between your client and server
Not even close. I work at a large bank and often 12 or more numbers change. Beyond that it is irrelevant how many numbers change. Beyond that only approved but unsettled transactions will go through under the old number. You can't continue to use the old number for new transactions.
Might as well ban the Bible while they're at it for stories of rape, incest and sodomy.
I'm in a similar situation - 0 friends because I just follow some NGOs and use the API to provide FB login for some pages. I get notifications almost every day and the "unsubscribe" link leads to a page that lets me opt out of the notification type: "Updates about your friends since you logged in", while my notification settings show that I get no Email notifications at all.

So that's the price I pay for allowing FB login on some of our pages.

You're begging the question. There is no evidence of harm to children from light drinking during pregnancy. So you really have to question the motives of a policy that dictates women to engage in a behavior that excludes them socially for an imagined benefit to children.

Its one step above segregating women into sanitation tents during menstration. A policy completely disproportional to the underlying problem whose intent is social exclusion as much as anything else.
That is not the question. The question is a what price.

Exactly. I thought we'd had the intelligent debates about censorship and the Internet over ten years ago!

Same old crap, wrapped in some slightly different packaging.

You could call a referendum on this one and get it through, just by asking a thinly veiled question like: 'Do you think our children should be protected from pornography?'. Just flash a picture of Jimmy Saville visiting a hospital while you ask it.

I feel this country is getting less and less progressive at every turn and u-turn.

Some furore over some phone hacking - remember that? Remember that eavesdropping is a bad, bad thing? Then a few months later, happily talk about eavesdropping/filtering the nation. Sickens me, even more than Mandy's mutterings.
