Secrecy is like copyright - keeps on getting extended, or the documents just get "mislaid" long before the declassification date.
> Why large organisations cannot get domain registrations sorted is beyond me. For the costs concerned, auto-renewal is the safest bet.

Heh. If it was just a matter of auto-charging from a credit card it would be easy. But in a large company, you have multiple registrars, outdated billing information, acquisitions, different cost centers. It is incredibly easy to let one or two of your tens of thousands of domains to lapse.
I think michaelt's argument was that it's easy to shuffle the IPs around inside the corporation to allow large, BGP-friendly blocks to be released.
There are far better examples of "filling space for the sake of filling space" in the store.

"Approach #2 is to fill the additional space with additional content. That’s what we did. We added a brief artist bio, a list of similar artists, and listenable tracks from the artist:"

Who is buying tickets to a concert where they don't know anything about the artist and don't have any of their music?

I interpreted your position as applying muslim community standards in what is not a muslim community. This is a very liberal community in which insulting religions for humorous effect is perfectly ok.

Irrelevant. Alan Turing was gay and Ada Lovelace was female.
Except that the whole point of copyright is to enrich the public domain, not keep works out of it. It grants creators a limited monopoly on the work, after which it becomes part of our shared culture. Perpetual copyright and placing the burden of researching and protecting it on those who want to use a piece of culture has a chilling effect on future modification and creation.

Copyright was never intended to be perpetual or to enable large companies to lock down culture so that only they are allowed to create and distribute it.

At this point the only difference is cost and scale. What the NSA is doing needs to be reeled in big-time, probably even shut down completely, but that doesn't mean being all tin-foil hat will somehow make you immune to what they're doing.

I'm sure they know everything they need to know about Stallman, just as they do about everyone else, apparently. Unless he's sitting in a cave writing EMACS source on goat hides, they'll have a window into his activities.
I see no evidence of that. In fact, I see the exact opposite.

This is more of a standards problem then a start up problem. Minimally, you need to get something standardized using public key Identification.

Another option is to deploy something like secure in band wireless pairing[1] which prevents anyone trying to spoof an access point while you are in range of the existing access point. Essentially, the access point uses transmit/not transmit as an encoding mechanism for secure announcements. Anyone attempting to jam that can't because forging an announcement requires you to not transmit at key points

Ah another person talking shit about category theory. Category theory will make things simpler. Just give it time, it's very hard to work with that level of generality when you're not used to it and the dogma has not prepared you and the tools are all new.
The most reasonable assumption to make right now is to assume that the NSA does have the key. They may not, but but then again the recent revelations have been so absurdly horrifying that I wouldn't put it past them.
I'm interested in comparing this to the bladerf device:

http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1085541682/bladerf-usb-3...

... since I already have one.

HackRF appears to be about half the size, which is very nice. Freq range is 30-6000, vs. the bladerf which is 300-3800.

Bladerf is USB 3.0, however, and appears to have a higher sample rate ? "capable of capturing 40MHz 12-bit full duplex quadrature samples in realtime."

The HackRF appears to be about half the price, currently.

The technical possibility isn't the new and staggering part, it's the profound lack of morality, respect for any ideal whatsoever, and compete apathy towards the oaths these people took to serve us.

They have compeley misused the power we granted them in sacred trust. We should remove it from them at once. If this has become impossible, we need to know that as soon as we can.
Thanks for the context Happer.
Steve gibson has been covering how they can get at this stuff and what alternatives you have on the security now podcast.

https://www.grc.com/securitynow.htm

Briefly summarized, the only way to do secure mail is pgp, the only way to do secure chat is to avoid all the main chat networks. And microsoft actively designs their systems to be easier to access for the NSA (far beyond their legal obligation) so you may assume that any microsoft product is a direct line to the NSA.
owning a /8 can have invaluable uses

When IPv6 is fully implemented, an IPv4 /8 will be essentially worthless. Reasonable people can disagree as to when that day will come, but it will come. It's probably not that far off.

Why not sell it or suballocate it while you can still get money for it?
Great arrangement! It will work.
Whether it will be financially feasible to construct such a large system of gears, deploy it in extreme weather, keep it well oiled and maintain it, and then transport the generated power to a usable location are entirely different questions.

His observations are correct, but his conclusions are incorrect, just as people like Glenn Beck start out with facts and end up with paranoid delusions and fantasies.

I think Stallman's observations are valid, but his method of dealing with the implications of those observations are impractical, if not completely wrong.

"However, a 10x improvement would be very interesting to me."

I managed to optimize a similar problem as yours until it was I/O limited. 1/10th the CPU would not change anything in the overall system.
[Edit: In the embedded world "as a whole" rarely makes sense. Design takes a very top-down approach where only specific features of a hardware platform (those necessary for the OEM product/solution) are considered for value comparison. This is why most SoC vendors have so damn many chips in each of their SoC product families.]

It depends on the problem you're solving, how much time/effort you're willing to dedicate to your solution, and what type of solution you choose.

If you have an embarrassingly parallel problem that optimizes well for ARMv7, you're 100% correct. If you're working on a more serial solution utilizing libraries optimized for SSE, Intel cache heuristics, Intel pipelining techniques, or similar (many of which don't exist or have equivalent siblings on ARM), I'm betting on the single-core 1GHz Atom pony.
I do it in C code instinctively; it's very useful for instrumentation, debugging, and resource management in straight C to have a single return point. When I get too far to the right, that's a signal that it's time to further decompose my functions; that signal is also useful, which is another thing that keeps me doing it.

But that style doesn't make much sense in Golang. It makes even less sense in Ruby and Python, which have structured exception handling; if you're coming from Pythonistan, the idea of nesting conditions is probably entirely alien.
Couple of suggestions:

* Add categories (by language, software integration, accessibility, whatever)
* Add links to the package website and/or Github url
* Add screenshots for every package, especially themes. Nothing worse than clicking on "Uber Theme VIII" only to see that it says "Here's a new theme called Uber Theme VIII" but I'd have to install it to find out what it looks like. No thanks.
To clarify my previous comment...

The post-split cap table looks something like this (from what information has been made public at this point): Bobby Kotick & associates (including Brian Kelly and Tencent, among other unnamed parties) own 24.9%. Vivendi's share drops to 12%. A-B itself buys back the majority of shares. Technically speaking, yes, A-B becomes an independent company (in as much as the majority of outstanding shares are publicly owned).

My phrase "I'd hardly call that independent" was probably an overstatement worth correcting. My bad on that one. Because the word "independent" (and especially the derivative "indie") has a very industry-specific meaning in this case, I found the headline a bit misleading.

I think you'll find that 'large corporations' are awash in Excel monstrosities.

I've worked at a few unnamed places, medium to huge, that used Excel and Access in horrifying ways. One place, with 60000 employees, had an 'editing cone' which was an actual traffic cone that you had to have in your cube if you were writing to the Access file on the SMB drive. During my time there, one person ran their Excel script sans cone and a bunch of people didn't have to pay their bill that month.

Yeah, sure - I've been following him for years but had never heard him get down and dirty before. Somehow never read that page either.
You can/do/might use actual prisms for a variety of reasons, however, such as if you're trying to get a frequency-multiplexed set of signals off a single fibre broken down as their constituent components - i.e. bulk data collection from a single tap on a mass fibre bridge.

Anyway, you're probably right, it's probably just bog standard parts, and PRISM was a buzzword for management.
I think it's a test account. The text string which reads something like 'does it still recognize me?' is very much like the kind of thing I'd type in my QA days when I was testing a new system.

If I were putting together a deck on that system I'd also probably favor test data over live data, if for no other reason than it's easy to come by.
Massive feature missing: last updated date.

I would NEVER buy a screencast, tutorial, or anything on web development without knowing EXACTLY when it was last updated. For example, the paid Ember screencasts claim to go over the Ember router - how do I know whether it was the old beta router, the RC1 router, or the RC6 "Promise-ified" router?
You're correct - there are serious security concerns with Authy's product, which were pointed out on an earlier HN thread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4916983

Personally, I'd be concerned with trusting my credentials with any company unless all members of the leadership team (yes, including "nontech" people) are incredibly familiar with basic security terminology and practices.

(Note that the founder is unclear when PBKDF2 and AES are being used in the product, which is concerning, because they have very different use cases and should be hard to confuse).

Novice skipper here! Looks cool. One suggestion - on your homepage - explain to me very clearly (in better imagery or a few sentences) why this trumps using my existing tools GPS + paper maps + VHF.

For example - I recently did a yachting trip in Australia. Daily weather was always provided by the charter company. I rarely used charts and just used GPS for courses. Lastly, GPS on my iPhone was buggy. Perhaps this was just because I didn't have an internet connection and thought it was buggy. For most people they won't 'get' that GPS works when you don't have an internet connection. Might be helpful to explain.

Yeah I am annoyed at the separation in SDR hardware most seem to be 0-30Mhz or 30Mhz and up.

HackRf is even offering a Ham-it-up upconverter to go with, the same one you would use with a DVB-T dongle. This gets you into the lower range but uses a mechanical switch to engage. Would really like soft control of it and be more integrated into the design. I might even try to wire a relay in to a Ham-it-up along with a raspberry pi for a integrated device that can go below 30Mhz with IP based connection.
Why will more books from the 1880s survive to be read 1000 years from now than books from the 1980's?

This is feasible today. Although it takes a decent skill set. Open source communities like OpenCore.org have enough FPGA architecture to build your own RISC computer from scratch. I suspect as FPGA's become more popular and speeds improve the hacker community will move towards one-off computers they made themselves.

This coupled with your idea of 3d printing for casing is interesting.

It only keeps you bound if your "Country" is your identity.

But regarding the OP's question, he was not asking about how to keep his freedom, he was asking about how to save his business, which I believe as you do many here have failed to see.

Now, one has to ask themselves...how likely would it be for the OP to actually save his business by running away? The likelihood of him not having everything confiscated by the government and simply shut down upon his disappearance is rather low. As it sits right now he could loose it if he doesn't "give" it to another person to care for it.

Also, he most likely feels an obligation to his clients to maintain the service.

Taking the time to train a trusted friend or family member would most likely be his only real option in this case.

Good luck to OP!

> However, the MinnowBoard is still cheaper than most PCs and could appeal to developers looking to write and test commercial applications before they're deployed in servers, embedded devices and other computers.

Relying on having spare computers for testing is also kind of a thing of the past in the age of cheap PC resources and virtual machines. I gave up keeping old computers around for software testing 5-6 years ago when I bought my first 4 core CPU. Also keeps my work area from getting really really hot in the summer.

What sort of venues, stadiums? I never get grouped at small venues.
It is ridiculous to think that your number is private and even moreso to think that someone can steal money with just your cellphone number.

Of course you could be phished or tricked by SMS but to expect your number to be private is to expect everyone ever who you give the number to go to extreme to keep it private as well.

If you ever gave your number to someone who downloaded an app which has permission to contacts your number is no longer private (Facebook has taken big advantage of this, I'm sure there are less than reliable apps that took bigger advantage).

Offence is taken, not given. Religious people choose to take offence. They literally don't have to take offence if they don't want to. In doing so, they validate who ever they chose to be offended by, which ironically weakens their religion and themselves personally.
That's a great point, we're going to add that ASAP.

Sadly that's exactly why the last updated date usually isn't listed.
The very next slide cleans it up using a "utility type" which reminds me of the "monadic" Haskell solution.
Let me first say, I agree with every individual statement you made, here.

However, let me put my argument another way: the ability to work with you to formalize your idea is what you're paying for when you hire a programmer. You're paying for a human compiler[1], a fully-intelligent REPL where you can give vague commands like "make me the next Facebook" and, through the programmer's Engineering knowledge, they will ask you questions and force you to make choices, until they've turned that informal idea into an actual capital-S System. Inasmuch as they have that Engineering knowledge, the resulting System will be a formalization of your own desires. And then, having the formal System, the programmer can go and implement it. That part is comparatively trivial, and increasingly done "by" the software compiler. Victor is noble for driving us further toward trivializing that part of the process, but it is only part of the process.

But anyway, back to your points:

Most "programmers" aren't programmers. If you're only as good at programming as a member of the general population, then you don't get a special job title, right? Otherwise, I would be right now a writer, actor, landscaper, game-designer, philosopher and life-coach, as well as a programmer. But in only one of those fields could I actually make more money than some schmoe who just decided to jump into the field last week, and the reason I'm "more of a programmer" than Bob-the-Accountant is a programmer, is that I can do the Engineering part better. If Bob-the-Accountant started calling himself a programmer, he'd be a white belt programmer--someone who just joined the Art, and must still unlearn their preconceived knowledge before they may begin--while my belt, at least, would have some color on it. Plenty of people calling themselves programmers are white-belts. That doesn't mean we should consider them when we speak of "the thing that programmers do." It would be like including people who write their own legal contracts when speaking about "the thing that lawyers do."

So yes, if we're going to keep using the word "programmers" to refer to both the Engineer journeymen and the white-belts who produce misfeasance with their every step, then we should stop putting "programmers" on a pedestal. After all, what use is a pedestal where the people on it are exactly as high up as the general population around them?

This. This is what worries me more than anything. Where have these 300 people gone? There should be records, trials, something. 300 suspected terrorists going on trial over a period of 5 years should have resulted in huge wave of almost 24/7 publicity.

That the NSA is in the business of total surveillance is bad enough. But there is the faint hint that the NSA is in the business of making people disappear.
The Developer’s Tool Kit to Regulated Industries
I'd say the onus is on Perl to be the best language for a niche, rather than on me to provide a list of niches with languages better than Perl.

Besides that, language appropriateness is necessarily subjective. I love Prolog and Haskell and use them all the time. My passion for them makes their thorns seem small and easily avoided, but the reality is that those thorns are sufficient to keep out a lot of curious people. I didn't really figure out how to write a Prolog program that handled command line arguments until a month ago. Prior to that, I would just run Prolog, consult my script and run my function. Simple enough barrier, but one that would have kept most of my friends away.

I think you took my "real X, Y, Z" list as a literal insult, which isn't what I meant. I don't know Perl. I was just referencing the presentation, not trying to sling arrows at Moose or whatever.

I do think that providing multiple options where most languages have one option built-in is unnecessary cognitive load. One doesn't "choose" an "object system" for Python--what benefit would one hope to gain? That the options are compatible is nice, but it's indisputably more work for everyone than just having one.

Having what are essentially language built-ins elsewhere available instead on CPAN is worth complaining about, because if you're going to do things differently from others, the difference should be motivated by something. That something in Perl is backwards compatibility and the desire to provide lots of options. The former is an explanation, not a rationale, and the latter implies, again, a cognitive cost. When you spend my attention and brain power, I had better get something in return. "Options" are only worth something if the alternatives are worth choosing between. In the case of OO, complete intercompatibility between them suggests the differences are minor; in that case, why have them?
