That clip is 1.5 minutes long. I can handle any annoying thing for a minute and a half. But I can not see any way that would be sustainable for an entire day (week, years) of coding. I doubt I will ever give up my physical keyboard.

Your drawing example makes perfect sense though. We started with the Wacom tablets and such since it very closely matched what it was like to draw on paper. But there was a certain amount of disconnect since the drawing surface was separated from the actual image you saw. So it makes sense that the next step would be to draw directly onto the display.
Fighting for LGBT rights shouldn't be considered a "political statement" - it should be considered a human rights issue.
I'm proud the tech community is so solidly behind LGBT issues.

Interesting. With the new intel processors you could get a $250 decent steam box. Amazon can get it for less,and than subsidize it some more and get it to a good price with a lot of really attractive content.

Still all signs point to android.
Yes, in theory. Here the only ones with more greed than sense are the ones behind the enforcement of bankrupting-expensive-regulations.

If you really care that much you just need someone that knows the subject to go the classes and see for themselves if everything is being taught good enough. You don't need to inject a bureaucratic debt in their finances in the name of "regulations".
I realize the difference with Russia is that it is practically illegal for LGBT to exist but let's talk about the USA for a moment where 33 states refuse to consider legalizing gay marriage and a few are even testing of the idea of emergency suspending ALL marriages just so people who are gay cannot marry if they cannot be excluded separately.

There are still plenty of places in the USA where you could be killed for being gay, the difference is not by the state but by individuals.

So we are not exactly a shining beacon ourselves.
I think you are. And what's the problem with political statements?
Just three words? And you expect me to watch a video?!?! Grow up.
Sure, but hindsight is 20/20. Apple was making this call back in 2008, when the app store was still really new, and a lot of developers were waiting in the wings to see if it was going to be worth building for.

Navigating the quality/quantity straits was by no means an easy task back then.

How do you mean? I've not encountered any similar community which isn't also a political echo chamber - unless you're talking about something more specific that I'm unaware of.
But any agreed upon public standard should be implementable by any vendor. DRM extensions do not fit this bill.

Bitcoin is unique in that it's a currency bubble. Any currency that isn't imposed by a government will have to have a growth rate that looks like a bubble on its path to becoming widely adopted.

The way that currencies collapse is by people losing faith in them en masse. Either something will happen to make people lose faith in Bitcoin, or it will continue to be adopted and it's value will increase.

It sounds absurd because the upside potential for Bitcoin is absurd. It could also be worth zero one day. Time will tell.
So "full faith and credit" if congress republicans and democrats can agree, that's all fine then.

It's easy to see that 5-10 years from now we will all be walking around with phablet style devices in the 5-7" form factor. Docking with a larger fixed display or external keyboard/mouse when needed.

It's been in progress for years. Talk to non-tech people today and you'll find they live their lives on smartphones/tablets. Sure they keep an old XP machine around for when they need to type something lengthy or run some old software, but that's driven by necessity not desire.
False. It is regulated. Coinbase is simply ignoring the regulations.

Any exchange app that transmits Bitcoins involves money transmission. Money transmission is regulated in the United States. No one is following the laws. Apple doesn't want another DOJ action. It's that simple.

Ask HN: Startups, when did you start doing code reviews before pushing?

I'm interested in your experiences.

Well the olympics already discriminates against mens in women competitions and vice versa.
But anyway LGBT support or condamnations is pure bullshit and should not be in the Olympics.

To much sex talking. Just because there's so much sexual media doesn't mean that the LGBT should get their part of the attention on the news. We should go the other way and talk less about sex in the media.
Well, yeah, they haven't traditionally had a monopoly.
Normally I would agree with you but I think with a code base like slash code your going to end up having a lot more time free going back to something much simpler. Your going to spend ages dealing with little foibles with a code base that old, and struggle to find people who are willing to spend the time maintaining a legacy stack. If you have a team of perl monks who are wiling to take it on, then by all means keep the existing code base.

However if you don't, I think your going to be better rolling a minimal site as your able to tap a wider pool of volunteers. Slashdot isn't some technological marvel, yes it will take time to rebuild it, but you will be able to execute much quicker being able to tap existing resources that have developed since.

My iPad does sit around at home, waiting for me to test out some new UI, but my Nexus 7 has replaced my phone altogether.

I'm not sure I follow. The DRM extensions are basically hooks to proprietary plugins. If the plugin decides that you didn't view the ad, then it will refuse to play to request media.

What difference does it make? They're not changing your search results due to their stance.
Governments choose and maintain currencies with low, stable inflation because it's good for the economy and the people at large. Individuals choose currencies with stable supplies to maintain the value of their wealth.

In nations where cryptocurrencies aren't outlawed, they will prosper, and those governments will have to figure out how to manage an economy with a popular deflationary currency.

"Both sides of the argument."

That Russia has a reasonable political platform regarding its LGBT citizens? I am not sure that it is possible to 'blow out of proportion' what is most certainly a human rights issue. This was your own assertion, not that of the paper's.

The topic was the Google Doodle showing support for LGBT people and your first impulse is to imply that the situation in Russia is in fact a non-issue.

That is why you were downvoted, man.

However, Bill's comment was not about assembly, it was about what 'great' programmers do. Even still, as skittles pointed out, I might have misinterpreted Bill's statement anyway.
Why south korea will be the next global hub for tech startups
the difference is not by the state but by individuals.

And therein lies the distinction. We still have a long way to go, but our laws are structured and being structured in a way that protects those rights. Even though some states might be trying to push back the tide of tolerance, the momentum is seriously in the direction of equal rights. Every country has idiots and bigots, but when a state sponsors such bigotry, then the light should be shined on those wrongs. Our ignoble idiots exonerate actions of legislators and leaders in Russia.

I tend to doubt that there's many exploits out there for the popular ircds, because IRC is such a hostile environment - ircd is probably one of the most battle-hardened codebases out there.
Blockchain.info's app undeniably broke the rules and intentionally manipulated the reviewers to get it on the store in the first place. They presented it to the reviewers with only monitoring features, and changed the server it was talking to in order to enable sending features. Anything Bitcoin aside, they needed to be removed just for this one fact.

This is how the app appeared to the reviewers — http://i.imgur.com/pMYRCPL.png

The little moments of "everything's optimised for being on the other side of the planet" are everywhere once you notice them.

All of our suburbs have peaked, ceramic tiled roofs. That design makes perfect sense when you have regular snowfall, which you need to run off the roof.

Here, a slightly sloping concrete roof would be a pleasant roof-top garden, or a more easily accessible place to put a solar-powered hot water tank.

The tiled roofs are expensive, costly when they're damaged by our frequent, heavy hale, and a good place for possums to get trapped and die.

All because our architects regularly pretend we're in England.

It is discussed by people on 'political' tv != it is political.

You can politicize anything you want. But there is nothing inherently political about showing support for an LGBT human being. 'What neoconservatives want to make political issues of' is an entirely different matter.
This is the real travesty, mistakes happen but the cost is life-breaking.

Good advice. Integer arithmetic is one of the trickiest aspects of C, and dangerous in combination with the manual memory management. For more information, see the free chapter of TAOSSA: http://pentest.cryptocity.net/files/code_analysis/Dowd_ch06....

There are (were) a couple bugs in the example code. Here are a some guidelines that will help avoid those, and most problems with integer operations and the heap in general.

First, don't mix unsigned and signed types in arithmetic; and always prefer the size_t type for variables representing the size of an object.

Second, check for overflow before an operation, not after, like so:

if (size > SIZE_MAX / 2) {
goto error;
}
newsize = size * 2;

Third, always double-check the arguments to memory allocation functions, especially for zero, because the result is not always well defined.

if (size >= SIZE_MAX - n) {
goto error;
}
foo = malloc(size + n);
foo[size] = ...;
I didn't say it was a non-issue. I said it was overblown. The current media coverage of the issue is overblown. I belive I am being down-voted because this is a sensitive issue. Anyone suggesting that perhaps its not as bad as it seems is instantly shouted down.

Please, please, please read the linked white paper. It is well researched, well written and provides citations and sources to its conclusions. It is also written by a lawyer who identifies themselves as part of the LGBT community.

If nothing else, scroll down and read the translation of the Russian Federation law in there (the only good version I could find) and really think on what it means to the individual.
I've played once with this variation. I liked it, not sure why we didn't let it stick.

Of course, I haven't played at all in a long while.
LGBT rights is not a topic inherently related to sex or sexual media. Just want to make that distinction.
Wow. That's full of falsehoods like these:

"What happens is that variable i is converted to unsigned integer." No: 'long i' is converted to 'unsigned long'.

"Usually size_t corresponds with long of given architecture." No: For example, on Win64 size_t is 64 bits whereas long is 32 bits.

If you're going to write about Advanced Programming, you should be careful to actually be correct.

Very interesting pictures. Most photographs I have seen have been taken in black and white, and show the destroyed city in 1944/'45.

My family had many tragic memories of the ruins of Warsaw, for they were bound with the jewish ghetto uprising and the following uprising by the AK (armia krajowa, underround army).

On another note, many cities still show signs of the destructive effect on war on the jewels of our civilizaton: The battle for Berlin also had a great toll on the city and its inhabitants, and the battle for Stalingrad (Wolgograd) had the worst effect on the population of the city: just left a single, half destroyed house and very few survivors were left. But many more civilian deaths and destruction of settlement took place during the war - the fires of Hamburg and Dresden, the destruction of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and the Blitz on english cities are well known, but the destruction of smaller settlements and villages are not mentioned that often.

These were terrible days. We should be thankful for the peace we have.
They would have to understand the principle of rights, and that it benefits them (by any good standard) in the long term.

In other words, they'd have to know that giving up control would be good for them long-term, and they'd have to want good things for themselves.
It doesn't affect your ability to search in any capacity, it's a picture of Google's logo in rainbow colors man.
One of the things that I think is going on here is that there is a bias (and for very good reason) towards Russia and other Eastern European countries due to the number of malicious activity encountered from the likes of malware and security attacks.

However, one thing that everyone should keep in mind is that Russians do not "shit where they eat". It is not very common for any Russian group to specifically target people within their own borders as that would bring upon a lot of attention.

It is 100% likely that their connections are being monitored and 100% likely that a dossier is being built on reporters and officials visiting the country, but it is 100% for sure that they're not being specifically targeted with malware. If they are, the person initiating the attack is going to find themselves in a lot of heat.

Honestly, I wish the Godwin moratorium would end. The lessons of Nazi Germany are not that Germans in the 1930s were the most evil persons in history, making it erroneous and offensive to compare anyone else to them. In fact, it's quite the opposite: the lesson is that all humans have the capacity for extreme evil when it is socially normalized.

I hope i'm understanding you correctly in that you think there's never been "good times" with some degree of racial/gender/religious/political equality. Largely I would agree with you, but I don't think that's the general sentiment among Americans thinking of their history, especially with respect to the last quarter of the 1900s. I'm also not trying to claim them all at once, but individually and in very general terms.

If you're arguing the opposite though, I don't know where we could begin to discuss the chasm between our understandings.
