You may have a point.
While it's probably possible, I can't imagine it would be an simple task to generalise that level of code analysis across languages.

If you look at Xcode, it saw a significant improvement when it started using clang to build its indexes. That is purely a C, C++ and Objective-C front end to LLVM.

Xcode basically requires a significant portion of a compiler to provide a decent coding environment.

What you are suggesting is almost to create a compiler "protocol" that can handle all languages. I am not sure how much value you would get from such a protocol.

IMO, because its either intentionally misleading or painfully uninformed, the fact that its info that came directly from the horse's mouth isn't a very good reason to up-vote.
Any letter that honestly describes overcoming hardship should trigger empathy. That doesn't mean one is being manipulated.

The trouble with much of this discussion is that, apparently, once classified as a "psychopath", all bad behavior is typical and all good behavior manipulative.

Furthermore, though, minds are assembled of, and driven by, complex and messy mechanisms: "lack of remorse" means what, exactly? Lack of feeling? Or, perhaps, the person feels it but chooses to ignore it? Are they ignoring it for self-serving reasons? What if those "self-serving" reasons are necessary because of the job one has (e.g., military)? Similarly, "lack of guilt" means what, exactly? Is it lack of learning what things one should feel guilty for? Is "feeling guilt" a learned skill, or does its ontogeny happen "all on its own"? (whatever that means; but in any case, we cannot have had the capacity to feel guilt "since conception")
BSDNow Interview With Damien Miller OpenBSD/OpenSSH [video]
My first non haskell monad tutorial was this dorophone.blogspot.com/2011/04/deep-emacs-part-1.html‎

very 'operational', zero magic, good to get your hands dirty.

Dans' tutorial you linked is one of my favorite too.
Threatening with legal punishment for noncompliance doesn't work, and neither does appealing to patriotism.
One can only wonder how fast Germany issued a visa to a criminal convicted of economic crime ( when anybody just half-knowledgeable about USSR/Russia 198x-199x history has no doubts about the crimes) .

Calling him a "prisoner of conscience" is total disrespect and offense to real prisoners of conscience who stand up and suffer for their principles (like Pussy Riot girls for example). He stood up for his wealth and power refusing to accept the reality that the new rising thief at the time - Putin and Co. - become stronger than him. He challenged Putin and lost. Will Putin be called a "prisoner of conscience" when/if some new guy send Putin to a Siberia camp?
> It is very clear that the decision to prosecute ... was politically motivated.

No, the opposite is clear.

The ECHR court "found no basis that the case against the two was politically motivated, as Khodorkovsky and Lebedev alleged in their complaint" (direct quote).

The supra-national court is in no sense a pro-Russian organisation, and the judges were perfectly aware of the political implications of their ruling. They did note several improprieties of the trial (keeping defendants in cages etc.), and even ordered Russian state to pay some compensation to the defendants, but that did not change their core conclusion.

Khodorkovsky was enriching himself by defrauding the state and the Russian public (most of the social security is funded through oil taxes). This was the reason for his prosecution, regardless of what "everybody understands" thanks to various PR campaigns.
Clearly the fact that I incorrectly capitalized the first letter of someone's pretend internet name is an accurate way to assess my character. I honestly don't know how I will go on.
> Googlers can take the Caltrain to Mountainview and hop on the free shuttle buses which drop them off at their campus. Why don't they do that?

Have you ever tried to use Caltrain? It will make you want to gouge your own eyes out.
hmm.. In some sense, a psychopath is someone who is perfectly cool under (social) pressure.

When a normal person gets into a dispute, they worry about saving face and moral obligations, instinctively comfort (or maybe attack) the other person, etc, in an "I-Thou" situation. But a psychopath just sees a dispute as an "I-It" situation, like seeing a puddle on the sidewalk, something to casually (or carefully) navigate around, or (in the worst case) plow through and brush off.

Credit and debit card accounts stolen in a recent data breach at retail giant Target have been flooding underground black markets in recent weeks, selling in batches of one million cards and going for anywhere from $20 to more than $100 per card, KrebsOnSecurity has learned.

No fucking way (pardon my French)!

I haven't seen anyone comment on this yet, but doesn't this seem incredible? I.e. I don't believe it.

Am I to accept that transfers of $20,000,000 to $100,000,000 ($20 to $100 times a batch of 1 million) are occuring in payment for these cards.

Bullshit. I just don't believe it. This theft is now widely known. So no way that someone is going to plunk down $100,000,000 just to get a small portion of this info.

Again, bullshit. IMO. It just doesn't make sense.

They fear negative consequences less, or they fear social consequences less?

That is, are they less afraid of car crashes and drowning, or just less afraid of pissing people off (because they don't care about other's personal needs, and because they can easily "fix" a relationship with the advantages of deception)
Zimperium Raises $8M For Mobile Security That Turns The Tables On Attackers
As a programmer I see this as an investigation/debugging. I try to make sure my assumptions are correct, then try to list all the problems and suggest fixes in the simplest manner in interrogative form so the person clicks deeply and peacefully.
I'm a little unfamiliar with the space (also I'm not american), but I was conversing with someone about this sometime back on open source governance.

> (Maybe not, by definition.)

The definitions have nothing to do with whether there is a better way. There probably is, but we probably are not going to find it with our brains working how they do. We aren't a hive mind, we aren't going to optimize globally, although we make some attempts here and there.
Curiously someone claiming to have a safe way is also arguing from ignorance: "maybe there are ways to detect this, but I am not aware of them".
If we were all working on farms, or whatever it is their ideal is, we would be making our own coffee, working with our kids out in the fields, and would be too tired to be having sex at all. There's a whole class of shit jobs that wouldn't even exist.

I don't think anyone should be grateful for a barista job or whatever, but it's probably better than weeding a cornfield for six cents an hour. If everyone was poorer, everyone would be poorer. Income inequality has always existed and will always exist: money comes from value, and people have to create that value somehow. If you create less value, you'll have less money. (I agree that it's difficult to bootstrap yourself from shit job to riding around in a Wifi-enabled bus, and that's something we should try and fix. But the money to fix it has to come from somewhere.)

While it's nice learn De Morgan's Law if you don't know it, it occurs to me that the problem of finding the simplest version of a given logical expression in n logical variables is a classic NP-complete problem (or NP-hard, the simpler question of whether the negation of an expression can be reduced to true is basically SAT).

There is no easy method to reduce every expression to a simple normal form - the conjunctive normal form of a given be exponentially larger than the original expression, etc.

Pussy Riot, really? They would have been thrown in jail in most western countries for what they did too. Hell, in Canada they may have even been charged with a hate crime...

The only reason anyone cares about them is because they also happened to criticise Putin...
Haskell community already standardizes through the use of library APIs and command-line applications like ghcmod. Any editor/IDE can invoke these tools.
I didn't read the article but based on the title I expect they came to the same revelations that Dale Carnegie did in his famous book "How to Win Friends and Influence People"
So now his character is even bigger enigma. If the guy was a crook and fine with ripping stockholders out of 100MM tune, then how come he didnt want to play along with NSA? If he was greedy then he should have gone along with NSA offer. What could be his motive to say no to NSA? Wouldn't he know, at the time, saying no to the Gov may result in his contracts being shut off??
Plenty of libraries written in statically typed languages add features which may not be supported on legacy platforms. There are ways to deal with this. In version X you provide a way to let the client know that function Y is not supported on the current platform.

It's not like the web is some completely different animal, it's just an example of poor/little standardization and a design which has not evolved well over time.

Actually, there is. If you're doing ACH, you need an authorization, in one of several forms depending on the circumstances. The bank doesn't check the authorization unless there's a significant issue, but they have a right to demand it. I've only seen it happen when there's been a bunch of fraud going on.

You can reverse ACH transactions by going to your bank and filling about a form and making a declaration under penalty of perjury. It goes back to the merchant as an R10, and the merchant usually deals with it in some other form, though if they've got a good relationship with their bank, they can dishonor the return.
It's hard to take an article seriously when the title is obviously false.
There is one additional factor: the filters are opt-out and you have to request the ISP if you don't want the censored experience. I believe this changes the dynamics quite a bit.
I think everything you say is likely to be accurate. However, given that we're talking about a nation state in an adversarial context, remember the relevant comparison is "Express the pain of black-box reconstructing the Windows build process in terms of ACEs (aircraft carrier equivalents)."

I very much doubt that building Windows is a 10 ACE problem, or a 1 ACE problem, or a 0.1 ACE problem.
I think the name is just a correlation, not a causation. To put it bluntly, you won't fail because your name is "London", you will probably fail because you grew up with a parent that thought London was a good name for a person.

Changing your name is just hiding the symptom, not the cause.

9/11 Families 'Ecstatic' They Can Finally Sue Saudi Arabia
Decreasing sales death spiral. There was some good word of mouth happening, but too little to break the cycle. I wanted to prevent it from becoming commercial abandonware.

The background story is that I kind of screwed up with v2 of the product. It took years to develop and tried to answer every need that I had observed among users... But I didn't quite realize that the answers I came up with were at a level of abstraction that didn't directly solve those problems. The product became an abstract toolset that can bend to almost anything, but integrating it into a workflow requires a certain vision of how to harness those abstractions.

In other words, I made a visual programming tool for users that were not really programmers and had other things to do than learn the new stuff. I just didn't understand the v1 users well enough, and they didn't get excited about v2, so it lost the important thrust of existing users talking about the upgrade.
One might even say it's "traditional".
Nah, the owners will still maintain their domains. I'm guessing moving/purchasing through us in the future.
Coinbase is maddening
How can I get Coinbase to address their mistakes? First, they reject my purchase of BTC, say it was their mistake, but since it took so long for them to respond to my request, they could no longer honor my $127/BTC price.

More recently, I purchased 10 BTC at $800. They took money out of my account for those 10, and then for another 15. I got the BTC, but it is an additional purchase that I did not want, did not make, and I am not allowed to make. My coinbase-imposed limit is 10 per day.

There is no number to call, and they do not respond to email. What is my next step? I want my money back!
While countries like China (rightfully) get the bad rap for being a harsh place for journalists and independent media, Singapore tends to get away. Its media control laws are amongst the most rigorous and draconian among modern democracies, and naturally, its media the least critical of the state.

Unfortunately I don't think that's going to change, because its citizens (and the rest of the world) seem to have accepted that loss of press freedom is an acceptable price for economic prosperity and unbridled consumerism.
Having money or providing is does not entitle you to determine how other people live. Wealth entitles you nothing to deciding how society should be structured. You're having more market value than a janitor may give you the practical power to bully the people around you into behaving as you'd like - it's immoral for you to do so though.
Ok, you've got me really curious what these applications are. 2^53 is 3.67e18, which is about 500 times larger than the number of millimeters from the sun to Pluto's maximum orbit [1] allowing an accurate model of a solar system. It is more kilometers than the diameter of the Milky Way [2], allowing accurate models of a galaxy (given the size of stars, 1 km is pretty accurate). I'm guessing that the 15 TB storage requirement of 400 billion stars [3] is going to be a problem long before the integer precision. So I'm not really seeing how games or graphics are going to need more than this precision...

Crypto needs 256 bit integers minimum, so 64 bit integers are usually convenient multiples, but not terribly helpful.

I'm not saying that 53-bit integers are good enough (although I certainly have never needed anything that large); I have no idea. But I don't see a huge number of applications that obviously need them. So I'm curious...

[1] According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pluto, Pluto's maximum orbit is 7.31e9 km = 7.31e15 mm

[2] 120,000 ly = 120,000 ly * 9.5e15 m = 1.14e20 m = 1.14e18 m (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milky_Way)

[3] Each stars needs (x, y, z) and (v_x, v_y, v_z), probably also in 53-bit integers, so that is 6 * 53 bits = 318 bits = 40 bytes. 4e11 stars * 40 bytes = 1.6e13 bytes = approximately 14.6 TB.
You can't reduce that objection.

Given that this is an objection I frequently encounter from office managers who wonder why their employer needs an office manager if the computer makes 10X the phone calls for 0.1X the cost: "No, actually, this will make you even more valuable to your employer. You'll stop wasting time on the low-value task that is your current job and instead have time to level-up into $HIGHER_VALUE_TASK. And you'll get the credit for the change. Let me tell you about the ROI report: I like to call it the get-you-a-raise screen."

But again, I'm an engineer, not a copywriter. Feel free to improve on that.

Google's shuttle services are primarily chosen based on demand by Googlers (I hope!). Our lives and incomes are our own, and it's not for you, or Google, to manage our choices so as to minimize the inconvenience to others.

We live in a market economy where goods go to the highest bidder, not the person who wants or needs it most. However if you really feel for some reason that the people in Oakland being displaced are the people in the US who are most in need of help, there is a very simple solution: pay their rent for them with your own money.

It was interesting working in a "high death rate" environment, and seeing the ways different organizations dealt with that.

The military (US, especially) seems to rely on tradition. I still think the US Army "last roll call" is among the best.

There were contractor and local companies who did basically nothing, and where the big issue was getting personal effects packed up/returned, and risk that final paychecks (or, in some cases, 6+ months of pay held until completion) would be paid out. And some where the loss of enough people led to the company folding, too, so there wasn't even anyone to pay that money.

Probably not frequent enough to be meaningful for a silicon valley tech company with mainly 20-50 year old employees, but maybe in an industry with older people (or, in 10-20 years, in tech), there will be companies which differentiate themselves by how they handle this kind of thing.

There are some conferences where one of the first parts of the yearly meeting is listing all the former attendees who have died in that year; for the more ee-specific conferences where the average attendee is ~50-60, it's a much longer meeting.

The docs are styled using TB3. There's nothing fancy going on to make it responsive. The trick is I just change the position of the sidebar from fixed back to static when the width is <768px. The width also goes back to auto and I set a height so it doesn't take up too much space.
These people suing the Saudi Arabian government will be about as effective as the victims of last weeks drone strike[1] trying to sue the U.S. government. Even if the lawyers produce mountains of evidence that directly ties the Saudi Arabian government to the 9/11 attacks, who is going to enforce the ruling? The U.S. isn't going to strain relations with one of its few allies in the middle east just because some people want to capitalize on a tragedy.

Yes, the main idea is the similar.
Human traits are a vast shade of grey, neither black nor white. There is no one-size-fits-all approach. Someone who even attempts this approach is underestimating our diversity (not to disparage this scientific study in any way).

Focusing on 'dreams', focusing on 'flaws' or using some other emotion to motivate a person, there cannot be a 'standard' approach. Sometimes it is the 'fear of loss' which works wonders. On someone who wants to be the 'best', it is realization of flaws which might work. But there are several other factors which need to be taken into account, including life circumstances. Keep all options open and be willing to change your strategy quickly in response to how the situation is turning.

And sometimes, even if we want to change, the 'monkey' inside us doesn't let us change. Mere realization of a flaw does not guarantee change. It takes a lot of hard work to achieve a personality change. A lot of people aren't capable of that.
