I made private diaries for close friends (7 max). It is like post-it note on the kitchen fridge. Not indexed by google. Honesty of content there is amazing. Things that people would never trust to fb/twitter. Also, people that never write anything on facebook, do post there. It is simple stuff, like " I am doing that, I am feeling this, I am going to somewhere." If suddenly, all of fb contacts would post such small things, you'd go crazy. However, there are several people in my life, about whom I care deeply and want to know how they are doing even if they are 1000km away. This solves my need to keep in touch with chosen few souls. http://www.osom.me
No idea. I assume it'd work, but how will you connect the drives?
I would like to salute the people who are willingly putting themselves on all kinds of lists by being here. I would be there as well if it were practical for me.
"through omission"? I thought the parellel construction concept involves coming up with an explicit fake story about how some unrelated thought process happened to take the investigtion in a direction which ended up uncovering the evidence in question.
Chicken adobo is really easy and good. [1]

I usually do it a bit more simply. Brown chicken thighs and drumsticks in a pot, remove chicken and then add 1 onion sliced into chunks and some garlic. Brown onions and garlic. Add white wine vinegar, a carrot or two and a bit of water and maybe a splash of soy sauce and the chicken back in. You can put one cut up tomato in if you like too. Cover and cook for another 30 mins or so. Takes about 45 mins, mostly unattended. Serve with rice.

I'm aware of the formula, the historical boundaries upon which they were set, and how section 4 could be updated beyond relying on preclearance for historically discriminatory districts. I do acknowledge that the formula is flawed and Congress could do a better job (especially in extending protections to areas not designated historically discriminatory that might be now). However, my specific point on bringing that up is that Scalia can't be counted on to hold to his own originalist views, so I emphasized his deferral to other branches of government instead as the sticking point, as well as his general dismissal of the right to privacy. Any combination of these factors make him pretty hopeless on this case, regardless.

I made a mistake blindly sticking Alito in there, without considering his views on privacy. However, he does have a very strong deference to executive power that would place him in that bucket of deferring to national security agencies (and indeed probably drove his majority opinion on Clapper v. Amnesty).

"One troubling memo concerns domestic wiretaps - a timely topic. In the memo, which he wrote as a lawyer in the Reagan Justice Department, Judge Alito argued that the attorney general should be immune from lawsuits when he illegally wiretaps Americans."

While I have this comment thread going, I'll clarify what I meant by wildcard. I never intended to note this being a special instance for the court, but rather I wanted to emphasize how this particular forum (a hub for technology leaders) can get involved in a deep policy issue like this, and have their views be well-respected. That doesn't happen that often. It was my call to action to this forum, rather than any particular critique of the court.
The entire point of parallel construction is that no court will ever know it was used in a case, so there is never a case in which it can be challenged, making it and the surveillance used untouchable by courts.
Shellshare (http://shellshare.net) -- live streaming of your terminal

Demo: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BCXnIgsEqK0

It's cool because:
* It lets you share your terminal session, read-only, using just one command. Easy to get (or give) help.

* Many people can watch the same session. If you pair it with Hangouts OnAir, you could do live trainings.

* It's not as powerful as tmux or screen sharing (as it's readonly), but it's much simpler: there's no need to open ports in your firewall, configure your router, or create users. Being read-only also is an advantage in its use-case.

I haven't launched it yet (I'm finishing some performance tuning), but it's usable. Its only dependency is on Python and Script. If you're on Linux, you just need to run:

python -c "`curl -sL http://get.shellshare.net`"

This will download the client and run it, automatically sharing your screen and giving you its URL.

Feedback welcome :)
Since this is the first year, I don't see how you could know if we are gonna be under stress. But I'd like to understand, if you have more information on that.
I've spent a month in the school 42 in July. The stress we had was a good stress IMO. The one that pushes you to work instead of spending 3 hours a day on YouTube. We just had to be able to say "I won't have the time to finish, so I'll try making the least worse". Once we understood that, it was intensive, but fun.
Yes, TrueVault is signing Business Associate Agreements (BAAs) with our customers.

TrueVault is also the first to cover customers under a comprehensive Privacy/Data Breach Insurance policy. As a result, TrueVault is able to indemnify our customers for, from, and against regulatory fines and the cost of breach remediation.
Simon, can you post some more pictures of people sitting in the chair? Or even better, videos of people trying the chair out?

It's hard to buy a chair without trying it first.
What we really need is a political movement based only on a very few things that we can all agree on. Leave economics, morals, guns, abortion, and everything else completely out of the story and focus on one or two core issues. Like upholding and strengthening the Bill of Rights.
This is cool. One difference is that I am not making any assumptions about your peers being your friends. Aether is designed to face you with strangers.
His talk and the office hours should be up shortly.
Wow that's terrible, I guess it means they stored their access tokens with no encryption.

Personally feeling slightly smug now, I actually applied for a job there not too long ago and got a half hearted rejection without any feedback (or the courage to actually reject me). I have direct experience in doing security for a Facebook SPMD - we never got successfully hacked, and yet we ran scenarios like this in our mind all the time.
Originally stated by Elon Musk:

1. Build sports car

2. Use that money to build an affordable car

3. Use that money to build an even more affordable car

4. While doing above, also provide zero emission electric power generation options

Tesla is on schedule with their strategy; they obviously can't just jump from step 1 to 3. We'll see if they can move from step 2 to 3, but their success from 1 to 2 is super promising IMO.

This is actually a very common strategy for introducing new technology to the market. It seems like this strategy was applied for the initial iPhone as well, as it originally cost $600 (far more than any other phone on the market). Pretty soon it was $400, and then after a generation or two, you could purchase one for $200.
I didn't even know this was posted here.

@leonroy: I agree and thanks for the tip!
@nam: Thank you! I'm gonna check it out now!
This is awesome! Hope you figure out a way to manufacture it :)
This is interesting use case for Kickstarter. It's the kind of product that would normally be very hard to find an investor to, questions would be raised about market acceptance of a chair so different, or not being backed by a famous design studio but rather a physician.
I've been playing around with clojure and clojurescript on my Ubuntu laptop for a while now, but according to this guide I'm not ready to get started because I don't have "javac" installed.
Other than the scrollbar, there's no indication on the front page that you can scroll down to see more.

Requiring signup is a huge barrier to entry for me. I don't want to give a website my email until I have a clear sense of what their value proposition is. In other words, the more I can do without signing up, the more likely I am to see the value and eventually become a registered user, paying customer, and recommend the service to others.

With Github, for example, I lurked for months before joining. Usually browsing and cloning public projets.

Letting your users see real projects that people are working on (even ones that have voluntarily become public) is a plus.

Also, I think that, since you're targeting a market that's not already familiar with Git, your marketing should focus specifically on the value that Git-enabled workflows can provide. Explain how a reader can send you a pull request with a grammar fix, how you can easily merge changes from multiple contributors, how you can attribute each line to a specific person.

Saying flatly "this could never work" is impolite, arrogant, and possibly wrong. "I don't see how this could ever work" suffers from none of these failings.
I feel like there are so many other places to find mentors now that it's not necessary to have them at the school itself.

As for the second issue, I stare at a computer screen for at least 12 hours a day - you have to be careful about it (backlighting, fl.ux, etc) but it's possible to do and can result in some incredibly productive days. That said, 15 hours is a long time.
None of us objected to you saying that people refer to Cupertino as being in the South Bay. What we objected to was the second half of that sentence: "... rather than the Bay Area." As written, this implies that the people in question believe that the South Bay is not part of the Bay Area, which is delusional. Maybe you didn't intend to say that, but that's what you wrote, and what everyone responded to.

Regarding "great" vs. "competent" engineers: every company needs a mix of them. There aren't enough truly great engineers for even just Apple or Google to be entirely staffed by them, much less all of the other companies out there. So everyone needs to make do with merely competent engineers in some roles.

You mentioned in a sibling comment that the engineers in question "contract at Apple"; here you wonder if Apple is merely "hiring competent engineers to implement a roadmap". But that's exactly what all companies hire contractors for, whereas great engineers who are "let loose to think different" are typically permanent employees.
> I guess it means they stored their access tokens with no encryption

Or the encryption key was on a system the hacker may have accessed.
I'm not sure you're right, but I totally agree with the idea behind your idea, which seems to be that it's better to explain the difference rather than work around it.

From a coder's perspective, I'm looking at this like you can either identify the root cause and fix the system itself, or you can start putting in spaghetti code to fix it.

Now, if the system itself isn't behaving like you expected, it makes sense to me that there's something more fundamental going on that needs to be looked into. Why work around the problem when the problem itself could be telling you something very interesting and useful?
It's not necessary for all development, but you'll want a java compiler for later parts of the guide.
Mailbox rules. :)
There is more to it than this idealistic view:

42 is very excluding for women, succeeding in bringing in les than 7% women. Less than a classic computer engineering school in France apparently. So much for inclusiveness.
(They managed that by only showing bearded old men on their website, bringing a frat-house culture from their experience in older schools, with "fun" bonding games like taping a student to the trees, and all in all not thinking twice about it)

Also, there is no entrepreneurial skills in the program (it's supposedly optional in year 3), no vision of a developer as part of a community (nothing in the program about going to external events, like FOSDEM for example).

Every student student is supposed to work on the same exact problem (exercise really) than the others, as far as I can tell in the same order.

All in all, the discourse on creativity and inclusiveness is really not in sync with how the school is designed.

No teachers doesn't equate peer to peer learning, nor a path to being a great, creative coder anchored in her/his community.
Don't Americans have roundabouts?!?

Anyway, curious about which has more accidents.
Buffer has been hacked – here is what’s going on
Madrid, Buenos Aires, Seoul, Osaka, Barcelona, and Mexico City all seem to have quality cheap central options, too. Tokyo and London seem to have affordable desirable safe quality outlying areas not too far from the center on the train.

The really terrible situation with no viable alternatives seems limited to SF and NY. (Maybe Paris? News about Paris always makes the cheap suburbs seem dangerous and non-French.)
This is extremely relevant: https://github.com/HackerNews/HN/issues/5
Yeah, same thing. I remember a large retailer I did some pentesting for a long time ago, they kept the encryption key for credit card numbers in the same table as the card numbers. Doh.
It's still pretty early days with it at the moment so things are liable to change, but I have elastic set up right now. I'm completely new to search though, so I don't really know the ins and outs of different solutions. Plenty of time to learn though, as I'm still working on the crawler part right now.
Here's the full, official response from Buffer: http://open.bufferapp.com/buffer-has-been-hacked-here-is-wha...
I've read the book. While he doesn't define radical, it's clear the author means two things:

* desires fundamental change in society's institutions

* desires participatory, bottom-up institutions; rather than elitist ones. (This condition excludes right-wing radicals.)

The idea is that professions don't exist in a vacuum; they fulfill goals in society's context. In particular, professionals are different from other workers in that ideology is important. So, the system doesn't particularly care what restaurant dishwashers think, as they have little workplace freedom; but teachers and lawyers have much more latitude in their jobs.

For instance, we don't have economics teachers helping students design their own economics systems, since econ is a crucial part of status quo morality. Instead, they have to teach a (not too critical view of a) narrow subset of them: capitalist ideologies for the most part, and the more rebellious are channeled into top-down forms of marxism.

Nimrod (http://nimrod-code.org).

It's cool because it's a systems programming language which compiles to C with generics, an awesome Python-like syntax, AST macros and other metaprogramming features.

I am one of the core developers. I developed a lot of the standard library and tools such as the Babel package manager, Aporia IDE and a build farm all written in Nimrod.
I was at Startup School and enjoyed your talk as it gave me some new ideas to think about.

I also worked in media for a time and I think the mischaracterizations in the "third-hand" accounts are less about an emerging gap and more about the huge market for time-waster content on the web.

Valleywag mischaracterized your talk because someone at Valleywag is paid to write half a dozen "pieces" a day that will appeal to a certain audience. Intentionally mischaracterizing things and blowing things out of proportion is necessary to meeting the daily quota of articles.
Maybe you'll be interested in this for some examples to try out http://507movements.com/
I only skimmed the article until I saw "lein new", so I have no comment on anything before that. But I did want to say that I liked the explanation of the tree structure with the English language example. I think I might steal it. With the respect to framing the article (or others like it you might write in the future) I wonder if you might be able to find a rhetorical strategy that responds to nicolethenerds' criticisms by writing for a specific person who is also a woman rather than groups like Women Who Code. As long as it was somehow clear that it was indeed a woman that you were writing for (I hope you have a female friend who is curious about Clojure!), you might be able to satisfy your three intentions.

Necessary disclaimer: I am a guy and I have no expertise. I am just thinking out loud.
From the kickstarter page, they have a picture collage of people sitting in the chair (link to image: https://s3.amazonaws.com/ksr/assets/001/213/229/3b559aca5e03...)

I originally posted this to HN because I bumped into Simon's launch party while I was in London last week. After testing the chair myself, I was sold. It feels like you're using a standing desk (except with no foot fatigue/pain) as it forces you to have good posture.
I think the videos are all private
That’s a great example. Thank you!
Of course imagine if Spain still had it's own currency. It would be in the tank making the cost differential significantly more dramatic. Thus attracting more people and more real estate purchases helping to re-start the economy etc.
Or the one I prefer, /Static/<vXX>/Css/Style.css.

You rewrite all /Static/<vXX>/* URLs on the serverside to /Static/*. You could create a helper function which inserts the version number in URLs for static files, and use relative paths for images in the CSS file.
Funny, this is almost exactly what I do, though I almost always open both the articles & discussion on articles that catch my eye.
If you want to combine code with markup, I personally think something like web.py's Templetor looks the sexiest/most natural. Here's a sample:

<table>
$for i in range(10):
<tr>
for j in range(10):
<td>$(i*j + 1)</td>
</tr>
</table>

which prints out a table of the numbers from 1 to 100 in a 10x10 table.

More information here: http://webpy.org/docs/0.3/templetor

I would also imagine it being a pleasure to represent html as Lisp lists.
> ... can help maintain your perceived thermal comfort.

so it's just a hack that doesn't actually help regulate your temperature. i wonder if this can actually have negative health impacts by tricking your body to not actually regulate its internal temperature properly because of the misdirection?
Yup, I'll keep using it. By advising users to revoke access they're clearly putting user safety ahead of their corporate metrics. That shows that they have their priorities straight and are worth working with.

Well, you may not remember Kazaa Lite. But, basically, all you would need to do is unpack the installer with a tool that creates installer programs. You would basically need to decompress it, strip out all the adware or anything else you didn't want, create a new installer and you're done!

Kazaa lite had a lot of other tweaks and hacks to the exe, which I assumed used some sort of decompiler to essentially "crack" it and modify it in certain ways. Then, along with registry patches and changes to other libraries it used made some fundamental changes to how it worked and connected to the network.

Someone wouldn't need to do this for uTorrent if they just wanted vanilla uTorrent and nothing else, but the possibilities exist.

Except they have. It's just that the costs are mostly up-front vs over time as with ICEs.

This is a bit of a challenge, as there's a balance between tech and non-tech. It's possible that these explanations could be overwhelmingly confusing for a large number of (potential) users. I think a video would be the best way to explain concepts like this, which I intend to have eventually.

Thanks for the feedback!
well, they are pretty blatant about needing to ask an apple genius for help ;)
There are so many great guides on https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/navigation/, that you shouldn't look for any book. I highly recommend WWDC materials as well. Up to date stuff and really well presented.
