The thieves most probably weren't starving. Because you can't eat raw onions alone and you don't need 260 kg of that. It was stolen with the intent of selling the onions in the market and make a quick buck.
I'm not sure I would call it "perfectly balanced" but remember "dying is fun".

If you die repetitively, you should try a change of strategy. Not finding any weapons? Try drones or crew transporters. Only finding wimpy weapons? Can you somehow combine their features and synchronize the attack to make them more powerful than they are alone?

But if you have a problem enjoying the irony of a suffocation death of your crew because you opened the airlocks to suffocate some intruders and the intruders took out your oxygen system with their last breaths, FTL might be too cruel for you.
Disabling force push is a hack. Git does not track branch history, that a branch points to something that can somehow be merged to a branch you have is formalized nowhere. Branches don't have hashes, they're just strings that point to commits.

You make it sound like force pushing is some sort of special operation, but it's actually just the same operation that's made with every commit. A branch is deleted, and then a new branch is made with that same name pointing to a new commit. It's just that with a normal push there's a check to see if there's a path from the previous HEAD to the new HEAD.

And another thing, it's also not directly destructive, the unreferenced commits don't immediately disappear. They just get cleaned up when git decides it's time for garbage removal. You can still check the commits out, if you know their sha.
They are probably not even lying that the baseband processor is shut down by the application processor, as it controls the power and system clocks.

But the dirty little secret is that the baseband processor is still a completely uncontrolled subsystem, loaded with some propietary binary blob by trustworthy companies like Qualcomm. GPS and even the microphones are usually integrated into the baseband, not part of the application processor that runs your Android. So you have a perfectly capable ARM processor running a propietary RTOS system, written completely in C (or C++ occasionally) with access to all the vital periphery and a gigantic attack surface in dealing with all the mobile communication protocols. The only reason there hasn't been a complete breakdown yet is that it's difficult for amateur researchers to exploit, you need expensive RF hardware and the mobile communication protocols are huge bodies of closed committee designed standards. But it is without a doubt in the reach of the NSA, and they are probably actively exploiting baseband processors already.

(Interestingly, since baseband processor have grown in complexity, most smartphones can now update the firmware on them, so there are lots of firmware images floating around. I highly recommend just even running strings on them, its quite enlightening. Some examples from a Nexus 4 radio:

I honestly think they use legitimate customers as cover for their spam operation. I'm seeing dozens of e-mails a week from them to addresses that were plainly stolen from LinkedIn during their recent break-in.
I've seen Nanex's pretty graphs, but I've never seen an explanation from them. All they do is highlight graphs with wild oscillations and then declare "ooh, evil!"
disclaimer : I'm involved with www.mailjet.com.

Mailjet is "merging" transactional and marketing email services. Transactional via API and on top of our APIs we build web interfaces for marketers to manage contact list, html and stats pages.

We charge per email send, whatever its "origin".

One need to know that managing marketing emails and transactional emails is not the same in daily operations. Marketing emails are send to "lists" and there is an important effort a reliable provider needs to put in place to avoid spammers come on your platform.
Lists need to be double opt-in etc. and a lot of marketeers don't follow these strict rules. The provider (here Mailjet.com or Mailchimp) has to develop and invest in a lot of work to detect 'spammers' before and even during the sending process, interact with its support teams to educate customers, etc.
Their job is to guarantee to ISPs only high quality, opt-in messages are send out. That's the only long term battle a provider needs to fight for.
There is a very simple undo, just force push the branch you just deleted? It's not like force pushing is some terrible destructive thing, it just puts the repo in a state people don't expect.
That's not an ORM, that's a data abstraction layer.
It's easily detectable. You could put a firewall rule to mark it and log it to syslog as this can happen at the kernel level. You will although get lots of false positives as you get duplicate sequence ids anyway in the normal course of things as things timeout and resend connections they think are lost.
Hmm, crime is present in highly dense, poor areas, color me surprised. /sarc

Crime is increasing because the society can't integrate them fast enough. It's literally same deal before abortions were an option.
More people, less resource on a local level, leads to crime growing. This has nothing to do with the minorities, but how they are being handled.
Why?

It's quite possible to check if a phone is transmitting, without even opening it.

Additionally, it is usually possible to see what parts of a device are consuming power (or at least have current).
What you're thinking of is the "Adv. FTL Navigation" augmentation instead of a Subsystem.

Completely agree with the rest of the sentiment. I usually have a general idea of what I want (ex: get shields to 3 by sector 4) but improvise depending on what drops/encounters I get.

Me too, the graphs are impressive but hard to digest. The explanations are often very good, however.
Also important to note is in Sweden there is no drug scheduling system like there would be in the Anglo countries. If one were to sell or move a lot of cannabis, it would be the same as selling or moving a lot or heroin or crystal meth.

For small amounts of anything, there are no custodial sentences but the fine will be about half of your monthly salary (or approximately £50 if you have no job).

I have heard anecdotal cases of houses/flats being raided on nothing more than simple suspicion because someone seemed sleepy or had red eyes.
The only proper way to turn off a phone is to remove the battery, in lieu of nuking it from orbit (just to be sure).
Talking of political spin, you can usually tell when someone is trying to twist facts to make them seem more interesting. They combine things that don't really go together and put the worst one first e.g. "violent crimes and robberies".

You might think, no they're talking about "violent crimes" and "violent robberies" yet the police chief is quoted as saying: " When it comes to theft, there are no witnesses, and victims often don’t know when the crime occurred."

So unless these victims are so viciously beaten by muggers that they get amnesia it seems more likely to be non-violent thefts.

If the violent crimes are really that bad then why not present their stats alone?
But you should do that locally and then push without force.
We in sweden also have Victim Cardigans. A type of clothing that is worn by those people who types "SD2014" in internet comment fields. This item allows the wearer to dodge discussions because the wearer is a victim of the "PK-maffia" a hypothesized shadow organization that enforces only politically correct viewpoints regarding immigration and disallows the wearer from expressing harsh "truths". In reality Sweden has a very open discussion climate and every viewpoint is accepted as valid, however stupid and/or inhumane. Problems regarding immigration are frequently discussed, however the majority opinion is that crime rates that seemingly correlate with immigration are better explained with class and economic/social situation than ethnicity. So those who have racist views are a minority (at the moment) and therefore, according to themselves, oppressed. But the color of the Victim Cardigan that berrypicker proudly wears, it's magnificent!
I think we're saying the same thing. If the status quo is 100 your BATNA is by definition >= 100. It may be 120 though, if there's some other thing you can do that improves your situation if you can't get the deal done. So if the deal is worth 150 to you and the other party tries to negotiate for 110 claiming "it's still better for you than the status quo", knowing your BATNA allows you to say "nope, I'll do X and get 120 without the deal".
I had a friend in Belgium who was raped in the street one evening by three young men. The police did not take much interest. There was no medical examination done. They said they would call her back to look at some pictures but they never did.

I've fought off muggers several times over the years. I've never bothered to call the police, especially as the actions taken in self-defence might themselves constitute a crime.

Despite all the hype in the cinema, my general impression is that policemen are basically bureaucrats carrying guns, not too different from teachers or bus drivers.
Original title was something like "How to not make a 404 page".
If "is now on-par (or better)" means usable then I'll agree. I'll also agree that you don't have to be an expert to use it. Sometimes having expertise is useful.

Prior to version 5+, I'd have called it unusable as the lack of real foreign key constraints (for instance) was simply unacceptable for real applications. The argument (by NoSQL proponents too) that the application has to check data constraints anyway might be true, but ending up with dirty data is the worst possible outcome. Check it in both the application and the database if you can.
Save the internet: Nuke Netflix and YouTube
Murders are down 50% from 1990s, and the number of victims of street violence is down 30% the last 5 years. But these numbers are not unique for Sweden. The one type of violence that is up is for organized crime. http://www.dn.se/nyheter/sverige/antalet-mord-halverat-sedan... (list of references in swedish)

But yes, we have a very ineffective police force, everyone knows this. We have more police personnel then ever (huge increase the last years). But solved crimes are less, or the same.

Note also that we can't use self defense like in the US. It is impossible to get any kind of license for pepper spray, taser (cops not allowed either), guns, anything you can defend yourself with. Makes it easy to be a criminal in Sweden.

Providing statistics does not make you a racist. Providing false claims such as "crime is increasing relatively fast" (reported crimes decreased by 1% in 2012 compared to the year before) while trying to attribute this to immigrant groups does.

As for statistics, people with little to no income are also "overrepresented" in crime. Who would have guessed.
that is the worst idea ever

>so it's not really difficult to add variety

This strikes me as a "how hard can it be to code?" line of thinking. Writing can be incredibly challenging, not to mention the code that drives the event and the testing involved. What I really wish the creators had done is made it much easier to mod the game with player-created content.

>depth of gameplay

Just putting it out there: this game was created by two guys and it's unknown if they were even able to devote their full attention to it. In my personal opinion, given this context, the result is impressive.

>I've never had one of those moments in FTL

They do exist. One time I destroyed the enemy but the boarders were absolutely destroying my Engie crew. Thankfully my doors were upgraded, but my Medbay was down. In the end I used a Fire Bomb weapon against my own ship multiple times to kill the boarders.
Apple knows, they should ask them.
Fortunately, we can pull out battery from samsung phone.
There's nothing offensive about it, this certainly is plausible and need not be due to any inherent racial differences. But you really should back up your claims with evidence rather than copping out as in your last sentence. If anything the omission of statistics makes it more likely someone will attack you rather than debate the facts.

It's an EU thing, not just the UK. But yeah, they're irritating!
I think they're a bit different from Dansk Folkeparti (DF), mostly in having considerably more questionable roots, which I would guess doesn't help their acceptance in the party mainstream. They have made an effort to clean up their image in the past few years, expelling a number of the extreme-right elements, but the party's roots in the far-right scene makes them a bit anathema to respectable society. The origins of the party, and much of their '80s and early-'90s crowd, came out of the "subcultural right", movements like http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bevara_Sverige_Svenskt, norse-pride and white-power metal bands, the motorcycle club scene, etc.

When Mikael Jansson defected from the Center Party and took over Sweden Democrats in 1995 he began a purge of the openly extreme-right elements of the party in order to turn it into a respectable anti-immigration movement, but it didn't really solidify until the past few years. Even in recent years they have had a struggle to keep those types out of the party, for example their youth leader from 2007-2010 (Erik Almqvist) was embarrassingly videotaped singing white-power music at a retreat, and was finally forced out of the party earlier this year (weirdly, for someone who opposes immigration, he reportedly emigrated to Hungary after resigning).

DF by contrast has different origins, culturally rooted in something more like old-person Danish culture, rather than youth radical-right culture. They have a vaguely mythologized idea of 19th-century or early-20th-century Danish culture, as they imagine one's grandfather in a small town in Jutland might have lived. They generally therefore view the radical right-wing scene as negative, as equally a deviation from traditional quiet Danish values as immigrant crime is. This has let them keep those elements out of the party more credibly, because it's not only for image that they do it, but because their base actually culturally dislikes the far-right (especially anyone associated with the metal or biker scenes, who they see as culturally un-Danish).

Not that I myself would vote for DF (as an immigrant in Denmark they aren't out to make life easier for me), but I somewhat understand their appeal better; they are more of a rural "traditionalist values" party than a radical nationalist party. I find it harder to understand how SD would get similar support, unless people either don't realize their association with the far-right subculture, really believe that their transformation is completed, or are just lodging protest votes.
Good to hear it can be different! I understand they cannot do this kind of thing every time, but at least learn some bedside manners and comfort the victim. I mean; they see muggings etc every day, but making me feel it's just normal and no-one cares is the bad thing EVEN if they don't do anything. If they actually get DNA/prints and use them, that rocks.
There's tracking a phone while it's off, and then there's realtime tracking of a phone while it's off. Two very different things, and two very different attacks.

"a new NSA technique enabled the agency to find cellphones even when they were turned off"

The current administration is very careful with choosing their words. I haven't seen WP's source, but I wonder if this is more about the phone blipping its receivers to record some local MAC addresses and scrambling codes and then uploading the data the next time the phone's powered on.

You know when the word "collect" doesn't mean what you think it does, I wouldn't bet on nailing the word "find". :-)

That is not true. In C++ you can always retrieve the current time, store parameters in a database, print to stdout, or retrieve a global variable without changing the interface. Merely announcing purity to other programmers does not solve this problem: announcements can be wrong, missing, incomplete, and maybe most importantly the compiler doesn't know about them.
The Code That Made me Cry
Though, it might not be transmitting all the time when off. Imagine a schedule when a switched off phone transmits once a day, at a random time. Although it is not impossible to record such transmissions, it isn't quite simple.
Everything you've mentioned is standard to SQL databases. If you have a schema you don't need NoSQL. Use an ORM for SQL for the language of your choice. Pretty much any db will run as a single node but you should never do that in practice, redundancy is security is stability
The reason I dislike MongoDB is that it shipped with unsafe defaults for years and caused people to lose data because of that.

Surely when using any sort of new technology, you'd do some basic research about write concerns, durability, etc. first? If you just lazily adopt a new technology without reading the documentation, that seems like a bit if a recipe for disaster to me...

This could barely be closer to our exact use-case, so I'm glad you used it as an example - nice to have the decision seconded! We ran for almost a month on the free plan, but were just about to exceed the 'total number of emails sent' limit, so upgraded. MailChimp's pricing automatically adjusts to the appropriate band depending on your current number of subscribers, so although the pricing is convoluted, I don't really need to worry about it. Even for a small business, £30/month (~ 5,000 subscribers) is very little, and for the peace of mind that comes with a solid offering such as MailChimp, it's well worth it.

I'm sounding like a shill, but I'm really not - just a very happy customer at the moment.
They're so supply constrained that you can't order them for instore pickup. There's no real reason for them to discount the price if they can't increase production to meet the greater demand.
sounds like an awesome setup. So in theory you could restore your backup system drive from the workstation to a laptop as you are running the vanilla kernel ? How would one do that in practice ? I was thinking about a way to sync my workstation and Laptop in an easy way on a system level at night/morning..would something like this work for that ?
EG using the nightly system drive image of the workstation and clone it to the laptop in the morning ?

Yes, this is often overlooked, and one of the main downsides to NoSQL databases. Schemas don't really go away they just get pushed into the application layer. When multiple apps use the same database, schema maintenance and evolution become a real issue.

Perhaps it's because much of web scale data is arguably tissue paper data, more useful in the aggregate. Transactions and constraints on the data seem to be less a concern.

In this regard I think key-value stores are preferred over document stores such as MongoDB and CouchDB. A key value store makes it clear where the semantics of the data belong.
Or maybe there are more laws criminalizing people that the police themselves thinks are ridiculous and they aren't executing them?
Crime rates are lower than they've been in a long time. And the reason we know they are, is the crime survey. The crime survey telephones a bunch of random people and asks them if they've been a victim of crime in the past 12 months.

The number of people reporting they're a victim of crime has been dropping since the late 90s.

The course has not been open in a long time and I wanted to ask if someone has cached and can share the previous session videos of the course.
It's "normal" to use a different address for each transaction (even when you spend from an address, you spend all of it, sending your "change" to a new address). But I don't know whether you could deliberately send to existing addresses.
