I have seen more of people being nice when they shouldn't. Perhaps on balance that's a better work environment, but I really don't like seeing subpar or even downright crappy work being overlooked because it would be mean to point out that it's crappy. The world is full of jerks. Being jerks is their problem, not yours. That's how I feel about it, anyway. Jerks don't hurt me, they hurt themselves.
A couple options here:

1) Someone is posthumously posting on his behalf

2) He's trying to fake his death

3) Erroneous news story. It's not uncommon to see fake death reports, many journalists have obituaries written up and they do occasionally get posted accidentally.

Ten Things That Apple Might Announce Tomorrow
it is subjective. non-argument.
Although it's not a true "pipe", the best way to handle data transfer between apps on iOS is to use custom URL schemes. I've done this to pass data and launch another application.

See "communicating with other apps":
https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/iPhone...

In one app framework we built we had a fairly complicated parser and it could handle a pretty wide variety of URL paths and the supplied data. But there in turn lies the problem - each app must have a mechanism to handle the parsing and routing for these URLs.
Here's the user-agent for those curious:

Mozilla/5.0 (iPad; CPU OS 6_1_2 like Mac OS X) AppleWebKit/536.26 (KHTML, like Gecko) Coast/1.0.2.62956 Mobile/10B146 Safari/7534.48.3

Most large-ish Scheme systems have a module system. You're a bit limited if you stick with straight R5RS, but even then every serious compiler/interpreter has additional features. Not unlike Python, Perl, Ruby, PHP, etc. There is also R6RS and R7RS now, which have additional features now.
well, is not that successful yet. that's why it's nice to see a big project using it.
You have to be careful, though. If you let them control the frame you will never talk about what you actually want to talk about. Commandeering the structure of the conversation can be just as counterproductive as outright rudeness or hostility. Always be aware of the frame -- control the frame and you control the conversation. In business, in politics, in life.
That TechCrunch article includes this quote:

> Kleinhout also noted that the team looked at how to keep users safe without having them evaluate lots of icons in the browser’s URL bar (which Coast doesn’t have). Instead of having to know what HTTPS is and how certificates work, Coast puts a very clear safety warning on the screen when it recognizes that the user is trying to access an unsafe site.

I'm very curious to know how that works. I sure hope they don't simply show certificate errors but otherwise treat pages the same whether they are secure or not.
You are right. I can't see this for consumer devices. Also it would do major damage to app-stores, so there is no broader interest in it. And no one would release and maintain an OS dedicated to power users only (there are to few) – it just doesn't scale.

Apple had once an approach to this in the old Classic OS, by a switch that would enable or disable some access and features in the OS (esp. Finder). While this wasn't a great success on the desktop (like any other easy-suites), it might be worth to rethink for the mobile platform.
> "I have an opinion, but I don't think you are emotionally mature enough to handle it in its raw form."

exactly. That is how I feel when someone treats me with kid gloves.
You can, nicely, ask if someone's considered doing it in another (better) way rather than pointing out that it's crappy.

I wrote an answer, but removed it. I repeat my only argument regarding motivation from the GP comment, for the THIRD time. You seem to have missed answering it?

This is hardly new for you. Almost the same argument is presented by the Obama administration whenever anyone there gives an interview.

(I'll post my original comment when/if you finally talk about my answer to your position.)

(Since you don't want to answer my point: See Wikipedia re Pinochet and Syria. Mainstream estimates is ~3200 dead for Pinochet's regime, Amnesty talks about 10K dead just in detentions (without e.g. bombing/shelling of cities) as probably low. E.g. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_rights_in_Syria#Ba.27athi... and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_rights_violations_during_... )

Gah, HN is rate-limiting my responses.

Very familiar with the document, but it mainly just boils down to watch-out for XSS attacks. We require SSL to deliver the entire page with no external libraries or references. His response to this doesn't really say anything. See: "WHY CAN'T I USE TLS/SSL TO DELIVER THE JAVASCRIPT CRYPTO CODE?" We need the crypto for keygen and signing and encryption, so he's missing the point completely.

To the other point made above along the same lines, the protocol is the key and you are free to choose your own client. No matter which you choose, you have to trust the source.

Our goal is to get the protocol adopted and used as widely as possible. Mass adoption is only possible if there's a web client with JS crypto, and there's no way around the need to trust the server you download it from.

Has Mobile Killed The Fast Follower Strategy? Sure Looks That Way…
You're confusing two different things here:

1. Not being able to use JIT is just the anti-competitive part that Apple does to people who ship UIs/skins over Mobile Safari.

2. The more insidious bit is that you can't run interpreted code in your own app AT ALL, which prevents Google, Mozilla, Opera, etc from being able to ship their own full browser engine because it wouldn't be able to implement JavaScript AT ALL, making it completely useless on the modern internet.

So, you're left with Chrome on iOS which is just a fancy skin/UI over Mobile Safari (sans JIT so it's forced to be slower so Safari looks better by comparison). Compare that to Chrome for Android which is the full Blink-based browser stack tweaked to be as fast and smooth as possible. Or Firefox on Android which is the full Gecko engine with a custom Android native UI running over the top. You can't have the Gecko or Blink engines at all on iOS because Apple says so.

Why learning to code makes my brain hurt
Trunk is normally called origin in git nomenclature.

Pedantically, when you refer to "origin", you're referring to the default branch for the remote named "origin" (i.e. the branch referred to by refs/remotes/origin/HEAD after cloning).

This is typically master, but not necessarily. In fact, you can update refs/remotes/origin/HEAD to point to any branch under refs/remotes/origin via "git remote set-head". (It's also possible that the remote repo's HEAD was something other than master when you cloned.)

If you want to be explicit, use origin/master, or refs/remotes/origin/master to be more explicit still.

The same applies for other remotes you may have configured in the same repo.

A related concept is the @{u}/@{upstream} token. Git resolves this token from the currently checked-out branch's configuration. e.g., if master is checked out (i.e. HEAD is refs/heads/master), git checks in .git/config for branch.master.remote and branch.master.merge and uses those to determine the upstream branch. In this example, those would typically be branch.master.remote=origin and branch.master.merge=refs/heads/master, which git resolves to refs/remotes/origin/master.

Finally, @{upstream} can be configured via git branch --set-upstream-to=... (in older versions of git the more confusing and now deprecated --set-upstream was used).
There have been a few pilot programs in places like Namibia, India, etc. There's a couple of reasons to take early reports with a grain of salt: These programs are implemented with varying degrees of completeness (i.e. they're only regional, or they're only a partial basic income), and it's still early and on a relatively small scale.

That being said, early reports have been extremely positive: Variously, crime rates have plummeted, education has risen sharply, child malnutrition has dropped, new startups have skyrocketed, community income has risen by a substantial amount more than the grant amount, etc.

Given that anyone with a rudimentary knowledge of economics understands that a basic income is at least _theoretically_ sound, the (few and flawed) data points that we have so far are slightly encouraging.

I can only speak for myself, but I feel that if you aren't in a place where there's tremendous pressure to perform your focus should be on getting there as soon as possible. Part of that pressure comes from the vibrant and active user and business community surrounding Docker.

The amount of work ahead of us is minuscule in comparison to the amount of work we'll have ahead of us in a year, and so on. However, scaling appropriately to become an organization that can handle those demands is really, really hard.

> Plotter fonts are intended to exactly communicate important technical information. They are designed to be highly legible, irrespective of whether you think they look nice.

Legibility isn't the same as readability. ALL CAPS is highly legible, and so are freeway billboards - neither are optimized for high comprehension, high speed, and minimal fatigue during extended sessions.

For example, exaggerating key elements on select glyphs (compare Glass TTY's counter in '4' to AutoCAD's Big Type '4', or the beak on '1') can help at-a-glance perception of plotter output, but exhaust quickly in longer documents.
This font will drive a dyslexic programmer mad.

I want to like this font. I love the theory and craft behind its creation. And it will no doubt work for some people (just reading through the comments that is obvious).

But from the first view, and at all pt sizes, something felt a little off-kilter. It took me longer to read through the lorem ipsum and other sample text. I had to focus more at the individual characters, which is perhaps exactly the opposite of the goal. And I think this was even magnified by the monospacing.

This font is clean. Nicely designed. But again, it will not work for a dyslexic programmer. The rules became restrictive, forced a little too much individual, systematic design, without looking at the whole.

What I mean is that too many characters are weighted in such a way that it fights the character's basic orientation. The '8', '9', 'e', 'a', and many others, pull themselves down. I 'feel' them swinging on their axis and hanging upside down. I feel other letter's rotating around a vertical axis. The letters feel unbalanced, sitting uneasy on one axis or another. The characters were so over-engineered, I'm not sure they have soul.

But there are many fonts out there, and just because this will not work for some people isn't reason enough to say it won't anybody. Kudos to the effort and experimentation.
I've found the best way is to get involved in a diverse group of people who are gathered for a shared interest other than work. If you go to Marketing MeetUps, you'll meet networking cheese-heads. They're in pitch mode and they are trying to get what they want out of you. If you go to craft-brew beer clubs, video game enthusiast clubs, film clubs, etc., you'll almost surely meet someone who does some kind of work you need (eventually, one day), but you also get to know them as people. The type of work that it takes to build a company requires a lot of trust between you and your cofounders, so I think it's just best to start with people you already know.

Apple already has a database of voice samples. Siri works by transmitting voice requests back to Apple's data centre where they are interpreted into text. Voice samples in the database, if it exists, may be indexed by identity, location, background noise, topic, and correlated activity. Not sure how feasible it might be to synthesise ad hoc utterances in the voice of a known person using that database, but it could certainly be used as a voice print comparison to identify individuals by sound.

From the footnotes:

> Android has intents which are a big step in the right direction. With a few tweaks to user experience they could solve this problem on the platform.

What tweaks would 'solve this problem'? As far as I can tell, Android intents work flawlessly for transferring content between apps. I can click an attachment on an email, open it in an editor, make changes, and then share that file back on a social network or another email. Each step taking only two taps. The speed of downloading attachments could do with some work in most cases, but that's just a hardware issue and will probably be far faster in another generation or two of hardware.

I have a feeling the author has never really used an Android device much? Or am I missing some key piece missing from intents?

This is a good start -- http://x-callback-url.com/ is a standard and listing for apps that support it. The biggest problem is that there is a limited amount of data that you can transfer in a URL (about 80KB I believe) so even large PDFs will start to cause problems.

The part where he cheated his best friend and his daughter out of large sums of money (child support, in his daughter's case) are at least as important to my evaluation of his character as the charity thing.

I have heard that he'd become somewhat less of an asshole in his later years, and I know he reconciled with his daughter at some point. I hadn't heard about stuff coming out after his death, though. I'd like to see a source on that.
I am no other than a normal human being. Who would sit hours before his notebook; browsing through different sites; trying digging out things around.

Call it to my lousy inquisitive mind which would always come up with this queer notion,"facebook, why you are so serious about OUR data? How about turning this trade of data-charity over into give-and-take line of work. It's social networking, right?" Its not wall-street where we trade only with concerned party, not with all.

And do you wanna know what drived that queer notion of data privacy? Playboy.
Sounds familiar to you? To me too. Seems we are rowing the same raft buddy.

Looking at the same faces of Megan fox and Jessica Alba after every boot up of my PC, one late night before going to bed, I thought of changing the wallpaper. And you know how transient and insatiable the human mind is. especially, when you are looking out for something grungy and grubby, being tired of same old story. Thus, the desire to lit my desktop with holy images of renascenced beauty from Playboy got intensified and Columbus- the me, began his great voyage of exploring fresh apples from eve's garden. Finally, that great journey ended up at playboy. A place virtually better than your girlfriend face and figure: New faces and beauty more redefined.

So the time has come to trying download a few models' images.
Right click. Yup, so far so good.
"Set as desktop background"
yeah! it suits to my pc but...

and that 'but' demanded more. May be, I was tending more towards perfection.
You would be surprised to know that I ended up downloading 300 images in search of something new, something better and something different. Yeah, I know that's a great deal of passion, patience and stamina but, I did.

Now, I would like you guys to read the second paragraph once again.

And that's when and where the idea of developing an application which not only provides the feature of downloading the picture album from public pages whole at a time but also, which can satisfy the need of ephemeral mind of wanting always "something new", sneaked into my mind.

So, here with great pleasure, I present to you "getfbstuff" where hundreds of images are just a click away.
And to add more to your surprise, You can not only download images but also, enjoy downloading videos. I am sure your hard-disc has some space reserved for a few epic videos. Why not fill them. And buddy! If you are a lazy bum like me, its a perfect application for you then. Else "happy leaky-bucket download".
