The archiving he outlines is reasonably cross platform - most platforms have ports of the tools in question, and you "just" need a way to get the browsing history.

The trickier part is good/proper indexing if you want to be able to do more than look it up by url.
HouseTrip - www.housetrip.com / http://dev.housetrip.com - London, UK (Can sponsor Visas)

HouseTrip are a Holiday Apartment Rental site based in London, we help travellers rediscover that authentic holiday feeling; going to the local shops, socialising with the neighbours, having a family barbecue in a foreign country and a host of other things a Hotel simply cannot provide.

We're looking for some talented Senior Ruby on Rails developers to join our London office full time. If you're abroad and have always wanted to work in the Ruby Capital of Europe, now is your chance; we are able to sponsor Visas for those outside of the EU!

We do business in 100s of countries. We’ve raised $40M recently and our website attracts 2.5M unique users monthly, push 20M pages, and run at 4.5k rpm. But we’re still a startup—which means you get to make a difference in a booming, successful business.

All that with the usual startup perks - cool office in Soho near all of the famous London landmarks, brand new Macbook, unlimited coffee, table football, and even an office dog. Although someone did suggest we get a snake instead.

Please apply via the following link:

We look forward to hearing from you soon!

Thanks,

Ross Ulbricht denies running drug website Silk Road.  Faces life in prison.
Likely just lulled himself into a false sense of security. He believed his own story that his precautions were sufficient and effective, and that he could just walk amongst the public and never be caught.
For those of us who don't know fonts, can you explain why? I'd like to avoid making a similar mistake, and I wasn't bothered when reading the article.
As others have speculated in this thread, I think their chief concern was implicitly acknowledging that their hosts were "hotels" or whatever other business type is covered by the tax.

For one thing, making this determination jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction is much harder than simply looking up the hotel tax rate. For another, if Airbnb is representing a host as a "hotel" by charging the tax, they might be liable if that host turns out to not follow any of what must be dozens of legal requirements, again, all of which are going to vary greatly by jurisdiction.
I started taking semi-regular walks with friends around town without our phones. The take away has definitely been akin to 'pros' list here, but dodged all the 'cons'.

Shameless plug - We actually set up a website to help facilitate these walks, hoping to get others involved: http://www.OffTheGridOnTheGrid.com/
bitcoin is appreciating in price relative to other currencies

That's what inflating in value means. Not all inflation is of the general level of prices of goods; you can have asset price inflation, or cost inflation, or in this case, Bitcoin value inflation.

because the supply has a hard upper bound

It's appreciating because demand is increasing faster than supply. The future limit may be driving that demand, but it's certainly not the whole reason, since not all currencies with such an upper bound are this successful.
From the FAQ:

What is the positioning accuracy of IndoorAtlas?

The accuracy depends on the building's magnetic field information. When
off-the-shelf handsets are used, IndoorAtlas' accuracy is typically less than
3 meters (10 ft) at 90% confidence level which is unprecedented in the industry.
When they announced a new SimCity game there was no mention of it being SimCity online - that was only announced later.

Sure, you can say that people shouldn't get excited about a game until they have something more solid than initial announcements and rumours but if companies want to benefit from the pre-release anticipation, they need to make sure they don't mismanage that expectation.
I've been given the wrong streets during browsing. Hosts give out an address a block or three away so their landlord is less likely to find it.
I wonder how Google missed that market - is that something Yahoo does better? That is, does Yahoo have better regional offices to take the local market? I know Google often drags their feet about going international with some products.

"interesting"? I'd say it is a game changer when it comes to stashing illegal profits.
Then I would humbly and politely suggest that the website use a header like `Vary: User-Agent` in its response to indicate that different user agents are given different responses. Alternatively, use a 300 Multiple Choices status code to present the two different versions of the site: The crawlable version, and the JS-encumbered version.

I understand that RFC 2616 does not forbid this technique, but something is not right simply because it is not wrong, and it's deceptive in either case. Do what is right and good, not what is merely not wrong.
Java is rapidly becoming more viable as an alternative to all of these "trendy" languages these days, e.g. Ruby, Python, Go.

What I mean by that is simply that a lot of developers are prejudicious against Java due to historically it being slow and having tedious development feedback cycles.

We use Java extensively (and Java EE 6) in an agile IT business and it is truly an asset. I encourage others to look in the direction of Java.
And any browser with developer tools...

Here are some things:

One scale problem with layer 2 networks is you have to go to layer 3 at some point and you have an aggregation node(s) that have to do a considerable amount of ARP request/reply traffic. The request/reply traffic is handled by the CPU of the machine processing. This can run the CPU hotter than you really want and if the aggregation nodes are control plane policing ARP (most sw vendors do), they will intermittently drop arp requests.

Once the request/reply is processed, the node pushes the ARP entry into hardware. ARP hardware tables are limited resources as well. If you exceed them, traffic will either be black-holed or forwarded by the CPU of the node. Both of these are undesirable.

Additionally, it becomes difficult to scale forwarding capacity of layer 2 spanning tree (or loop free) based networks to greater than 2 aggregation nodes since you will either block ports or create loops.

I'd argue it's more the JVM and its ecosystem that rocks more than ever. Sure, Java is getting better, but it's the JVM and its ecosystem that seem to be impressing people and bringing fresh blood in nowadays.
He's accused of at least two capital crimes. What makes you think he'll ever get out prison?

I imagine that turning over the bitcoins will be a condition of the near inevitable plea bargain.
Yay! Libertarian talking points!

I don't want to get into this, suffice to say I disagree.
The 5th Amendment is mostly moot since we've allowed prosecutors to extort plea-bargains via ridiculously over-charging.
Big question is whether turning over the passphrase would be "testimonial". I could see it being argued that it's a forgone conclusion he owns these bitcoins -- enough evidence to tie him to silk road, and evidence in the block chain showing those coins came from silk road.

(This is relevant due to the fifth amendment to the constitution. In many cases, turning over a password or combination is considered self incrimination and thus cannot be compelled by the state.)
This is pretty cool. It would be a great way for someone presenting a keynote to have everyone follow at home instead of having to follow using pictures in live blogs or on video when the camera happens to show the presentation.
How could they have talked about it if they never knew about because they were never in bed with the NSA?

You are assuming they were cooperating with the NSA behind the scenes like Google et al, but they are saying they were not and could not be compelled to do so by Australian Law.
I like your examples. As one who is casually familiar with promises, I would find it helpful to see more promise patterns/recipes. In particular, how about a blog post on the promise equivalents to the https://github.com/caolan/async Collections and Control Flow methods (since that library seems to be heavily used in the node community)? Would a higher level promises utility library be appropriate or overkill?

The key FDA claim: "There are no beneficial bacteria in raw milk for gastrointestinal health." And their support for that is that "Probiotic microorganisms must be of human origin in order to have an impact on human health (Teitelbaum and Walker, 2000). " So with this logic we sterilize milk to reduce harmful bacteria from commercial farming methods with the theory that there is nothing beneficial in raw milk. Congratulations on that logic

The real reason for pasteurization is the benefit to large scale commercial dairy farming. Non-pasteurized milk will spoil soon, but once you kill all the bacteria, it will stay longer, thus allowing a supply chain and warehouses full of "milk" at Costco. I am fortunate enough to be able to drink it regularly, but with US laws intended to support large scale commercial operations, I don't know for how long.
The government can't even pass a budget. Good luck passing an amendment.

Haven't seen Dropbox used as a CDN before ;)

Being able too look at the backend of a demo competition would be great. This makes or brakes the tool for me. Additionally, I missed more information about the social network integration. Competitions and give-aways are big on Facebookm so how does it look and work there?
To be fair to them they have to support the thing - a crack may be good enough to get someone up and playing but from their perspective they need to make sure it's rock solid else they'll face a repeat of the backlash they had when the online version was flaky.
One problem of many is that Java is quite verbose, and while IDEs like Eclipse help with this, there's a significant contingent of open source developers who both refuse to use typical IDEs and who also like to manually manipulate their code rather than let an IDE tweak it about. Languages like Ruby and Python make that easily manageable in a way Java doesn't.
> I assume that the people illegally subletting their apartments don't just work in the tech industry.

People subletting their apartments aren't subletting rent-controlled apartments, by and large. This doesn't apply in other cities, but in NYC, any listings you see on AirBnb are almost certainly for unregulated apartments.

> According to [1], in 2011 about 47% of NYC housing units were rent-regulated.

73% of those (34% of total apartments) are pre-1947, which are regulated, but most of those are under a separate provision, which means they aren't subject to the same restrictions as what we're talking about here.
Isn't all this moot if the RCI is just faked? The glassbox is not an engine at all. Nothing you do in game actually effects the economy or labor force directly.

How is offline mode going to change the fact that the game is not a simulator but a really pretty linear RPG.
Because the US consumes even more? The US is by far the biggest consumer. Saudi Arabia and Russia have quite small populations too, but the US is just very energy intensive.

>Hotel regulations at least partially benefit me as a customer. Hotels are subject to health checks for example.

Nobody would argue against sanitation in principle, but I have never seen a health inspector at a hotel. OTOH, I have seen some nasty hotel rooms.

> I also fail to see that adherence to health and fire code unfairly favors established players - quite to the contrary, those not adhering to the standards take an unfair advantage.

Indeed, they do: http://www.chron.com/news/houston-texas/houston/article/Four...

I didn't say that AirBnB should be exempt from all regulation. I opined that the existing regulations are unfair, and that may be a reason that some entities want to disrupt that space. I would hope that some compromise can be reached that is effective at protecting people (unlike the current system), and isn't prohibitively expensive or onerous, or doesn't limit competition from non-traditional entities.
Wow, they're actually going through with it.
Also, what's cheaper than using a currency which you have control over (read: ability to inflate; if one is in the camp that the conglomerate of national/international banks that own shares in the Federal Reserve act in unitarity with the USG) compared to most other countries, to import natural resources? One could call it free (if one doesn't factor the human beings on the other side of the equation...) Sure it can't last forever... but individuals don't last forever either.

There are a couple of reasons.

Living in San Francisco might have allowed him in hide in plain sight. Who is going to suspect a 20-somthing year old who lives in San Fran of running a multi million dollar drug business. He doesn't attract attention to himself, especially from his family and friends who are most likely to report any suspicious behavior of his to authorities. If he moved overseas and started buying mansions in cash, a red flag somewhere might have gone off. His family might start asking questions he didn't have the answers to. After all, the unabomber was only caught because of the suspicions of his sister in law and brother.

He might have thought of himself as immune to being found out, so it didn't occur to him to move. He was content where he was, and just stayed. Getting caught didn't even come to mind, because he was so confident in himself. He obviously was confident.

I'm not sure who said it first but the old dictum still holds: "It's easier to turn lead into gold than to steal a properly configured bitcoin wallet."
Right. Out of that $123 trillion figure, $80 trillion is medicare. Not only is it subject to changes in policy, it's also much more susceptible to manipulation (upward and downward) to make the problem seem bigger or smaller than it really is, because of the uncertainty of medical expense growth going forward.
The author doesn't really seem to understand what a Bitcoin Wallet is. First, I HIGHLY doubt that 600,000 Bitcoins would be in one Wallet. More likely, the bit coins would be spread between several thousand wallets. Second, even if the FBI was in possession of "the wallet" couldn't Ulbricht just access his backups else where?
Many treasury levers could believably work if they were thrown hard enough. I'm sure if you put base rates up to 20% or put another 10 points on sales or income tax you'd see things happen.

There's an additional problem though: if a politician throws a lever too far and over-compensates for a problem they get blamed. But if a politician doesn't throw a lever far enough, the blame stays with the original problem.
It's thin and hard to read.
Let's not pretend that the reason EA made this game online online wasn't primarily an anti-piracy strategy.

The reason they may be considering an official offline mode now is that a) it's been cracked anyway and b ) the majority of game sales happen in the first few months.

Convention over configuration, scaffolding similar to RoR (or better with Forge) and advanced meta-programming via annotations have reduced the effort to produce CRUD applications to a level similar to the trendy languages and frameworks.

While J2EE was painful (10 interfaces and classes for some Entitys), JavaEE is fun to work with and (for the most part) intuitive as it's focused on POJOs and includes DI (CDI). Now I focus on my business logic, and let the rest of the pieces fall into place naturally!
What's is rather shocking is the kinds of mistakes he made.

Not some subtle but plain simple. Like using personal email to register on forums and promote SR and recruit people.

Using stackoverflow with personal email, again... Yes they are not some solid evidences, but made the FBIs life, to get the guy, much easier. You might say that it's easy for me to point out those mistakes but they are so basic and it's not that he was running some Nigerian type of scam, he must have been way more careful.

Or keep messages about the 'murder-for-hire'. Yeah it's rather obvious that no one got hired but good luck explaining this negotiation tactics to the judge. Plus he mentions $80k for other 'murder-for-hire'. I'm really curious how the thing with this 'murder' will end up. I mean he could have just simply deleted them just in case. It's not FB that it would stay forever...

The reason I appeal to sets of things is because I find it completely ridiculous that children are routinely prescribed this dangerous stimulant drug for what I consider very flimsy reasons.

Most people don't really realize what Adderall is, and American society as a whole seems to assume that doctors and pharmaceutical companies know what they are doing and are trustworthy, despite many indications to the contrary.

The pharmacology of "illicit meth" is no different than the pharmacology of legal methamphetamine, other than some contamination. The pharmacology of dextroamphetamine is not so different either, mainly it comes on slightly more slowly and lasts less time.

The reason that crystal meth usage is so bad for society is because the drug is truly terrible for you. I am well aware of everything you said, and I disagree that "just a little bit of amphetamines" is helpful for kids to be receiving for ADD.

I'm confident that history will see me out on this. If you want to give your children speed, have fun.
The author appears to be laboring under the assumption that enabling GCC or Clang optimizations can cause failures in programs, in contrast to Java where the guarantees are rock solid. Of course, this is not true- in both Java and C++ the compiler's optimizations are strictly standard-compliant (at reasonable O levels in GCC) and in both if you rely on undefined behavior then optimizations can break your application. His problem isn't with unreliable optimizers, it's with writing bug-free code.

And yes, HotSpot can do tons of stuff, from eliminating virtual method calls, to inlining methods, to deciding whether a wait should be busy or not. And it does become a serious pain to profile, especially when you have code paths which are infrequently hit and so might not be JITed.

The last-hop switches facing the servers are layer 3 in the direction of the aggregation switches and layer 2 in the direction of the servers so ARP is handled normally and DHCP can be handled with standard DHCP-helper mechanisms.

There are places in Spain where it rains more than in the north, but only in a very small period of the year.

Last time I looked, Cádiz (in the very south of the peninsula) is the province with more yearly rain, also one of the sunniest. That's because it's in the straigth between Mediterranean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean. The (not very high, just about 1km height) mountains capture a lot of humidity.

And no, it's not a matter of "a small period of the year", but of a small portion of the province: Sierra of Grazalema.

> every single Java app I've used have felt horribly sluggish and bloated.

It's the startup time (mostly compilation), compounded by the fact that Java loads classes lazily (so a class is loaded and compiled the first time you perform an action that uses it). Long-running Java server applications fly like the wind.

The JRE classes are, I believe, precompiled and saved in a cache. It is possible to add your own code to the cache to significantly reduce startup time.

BTW, the classes are not just compiled once. They're compiled, monitored, re-optimized and re-compiled and so on. It's quite possible for a Java app to take a couple of minutes before it reaches a steady state. Of course, loading more classes at runtime (or hot code swapping) can start the process again, as well as a change in the data that makes different optimizations preferable.

Sometimes, when going back to C, I'm amazed at how fast an application can start (I'm not used to that). But then I see performance after a few minutes and think, "damn, the current data dictates a certain execution path and all I have to rely on is the CPU's crappy branch prediction? where's my awesome JIT?"
