> it will be less likely that Dorian has bitcoin involvement

So journalist write some made up story, and it's Dorian who has to prove it's fake? if you think things should work that way,then crappy journalists have won, and that exactly why they feel they can go on publishing crap,because of people thinking the way you do.
Deniability would have been a very likely outcome if a convincing crash scenario had been engineered. I suspect that the pilot was supposed to turn off the satcom link at the same time as the transponder. Now that we know that it kept flying for 7 hours and may have been shadowing this other plane, it looks clearly like deliberate theft.

If the last contact of any sort had been the 'good night message', then we would never have known.

This is just dumb. One of the great freedoms of our country is that we can default on debt. Any moral grandstanding that tries to prevent people from doing so is shortsighted and counter productive.

Consider, where was the responsibility of the lending office that gave out the loan? Do you honestly think they should have guaranteed returns on all loans? That there should not be some expectation that some will go belly up?

Don't get me wrong, I don't encourage people to just look for a chance to default. But to try and claim it is a lack of personal responsibility is an attitude that causes far more problems than a healthy number of people defaulting.

This leads me to wonder if maybe the cargo was the target. We already heard that the manifest has not been released and that they left 50 seats empty to compensate for the weight.
All of this faff is the reason why my next laptop will be purchased with Linux already on it. System76, most likely, although I want the Dell XPS 13 Developer edition--you can't buy one from Australia. Which annoys me to no end (and if any lovely soul in the US feels like helping me...)

For me, day to day, Linux makes an amazing desktop and development machine. It's been 7 years since I ran a Windows computer daily (although my iMac has a Bootcamp partition for DayZ), and I don't miss it, so I'm voting with my wallet. If you'd told me I could do that a decade ago, I would have thought you were nuts, but I'm happy that's the case now. I understand the Secure boot frustration, but without needing to dual boot it's a lot easier.

We've ceded a lot of control, and yet I wonder if we ever had a real say in the matter. Oh well, I can buy Linux laptops, and that's what matters to me. Heck, it might be easier to get them to dual boot than a Windows laptop ;)
The Java benchmark probably shows mostly boxing overhead, which probably isn't the bottleneck in most real applications. It is, therefore, more interesting to test with strings.

As another comment suggests, large maps are likely to be accessed concurrently, and so a comparison of concurrent hash maps would also be interesting.

Sure. But a gas leak recently brought down two buildings in Harlem and that's akin to someone posting, "we had a gas leak and I just called the gas company, they switched it off. Just sayin".

Point is: things don't always go to plan, and successfully avoiding disaster once does not necessarily set a precedent.
I imagine some of the disappointment is that there is a large community of people using the language ecosystem "Python 2", and that ecosystem seemed to have been prematurely killed in the hope of not just helping the small proportion of people who considered this new language ecosystem "Python 3" valuable, but seemingly in a failed attempt to actively strongarm people into switching: it's like if the people who worked on C++ standardized Rust as "C++14" and indicated that not only were no language inprovements ever coming to the old C++, but that all of the compiler implementaters had given up on it and were unlikely to ever release updates, even to fix bugs: that if people wanted support from the language called "C++" they needed to switch to this new language ecosystem. Sure, the syntax disparity is much smaller between Python 2 and Python 3, but the library semantics are still highly skewed (I mean, if it were just some simple syntax issues everything would have been trivial to port immediately). But really, the key issue is really the language ecosystem: the number of available libraries, the distribution in major operating systems, the cloud hosting options, etc. While these almost look vaguely hopeful for the Python 3 crowd at this point, it took five years of enforced death of Python 2 to strongarm it to even this point, and as it stands it is still weak. Maybe after 5 years of enforced death to C++ compilers someone could also claim a transition to Rust looked hopeful. And again: I understand that for some people this is great: I don't think anyone is actively complaining that Python 3 shouldn't exist, more that it's existence at the detriment of Python 2 snubbed a very large community of people. Like, one could say the same thing to the people who advocate everyone upgrading ASAP, or even ever: "not everyone is in the same boat as you; try to see beyond your own nose please".
>You think that such acts of criminal mass murder are common enough that this is a reasonable question to ask?

When the evidence you have stops fitting the (previously) most likely hypotheses, you have to consider the (previously) less likely hypotheses.

>An as aside: I don't know why reading such flippant comments about possibly murdering 240+ people upsets me so much.

It's not really flippant, it's speculation on the motive. Everyone wants to know why those 240 people were killed, or if they are possibly still alive.
People don't unilaterally love Glass yet, in my cynical view, because there has not been a marketing push for it.

Remember back to the day it was first introduced. People bloody sky dived to the stage wearing them. Every where you looked it was the second coming of amazing.

Now that there is no real marketing push by those that are looking to sell, the only thing we have left are the voices of those that don't like it.

I'm not convinced it will be amazing. I'm also still open to the idea that it has its uses. I just don't know what they are, right off. (Well, I have a few ideas, but nothing amazing.)

If you don't know anything about the subject then deciding the answer to a yes/no question without any data or logic is a useless exercise.

In this case the answer is almost certainly "yes", not least because gravitational waves have already been detected anyway, though as with the current experiment indirectly.
Mike Pall (LuaJIT author, maintainer) makes the point that the case presented isn't close to real applications: http://www.freelists.org/post/luajit/LuaJIT-benchmark,6

I guess the point was that turning off transponders and other things could have been the crew's reaction to suspected fire. Obviously the radio messages do not go along well with this theory. On the other hand I'm at least a little bit confused about what pieces of information about the case have been confirmed and what is just from "anonymous sources".

Can't agree more about expectations. They make you live somebody else's life, when we know somebody's expecting something from us and have a +ve score of keeping that expectation in past, we naturally behave to build more on that expectation. It's kinda same principle with which 'In App purchases' in modern mobile games are making money.

I've read a lot about how overly-expecting boss make someone's life worse. But I am on my first assignment for a freelance job, so wanna make a +ve history. But probably I am hitting my limits. Got to be careful.

Dorian Nakamoto 'unconditionally' denies being the creator of Bitcoin
There are ways to cover that - not all the hijackers will be with the plane. All they've got to do is keep some proof of the negotiation for the survivors to publish and that would be easily disprovable.

Besides, if they knew where the plane is to bomb it this would be a hostage situation right now. They might be in a country which wouldn't welcome the incursion but I can't see the Chinese being overly bothered about that given the number of their citizens on-board.
I really wonder how much of this rampant speculation is just people desperately wanting 300 people not to have died, either at all or just for no reason at all. Secret terrorist masterminds secretly hijacking a plane is more comforting than "sometimes shit happens and people die and there's nothing anyone can do".

> A significant part of anarchist idea is to increase individual freedom as much as possible

Anarchists are no more pro-freedom than progressives. Anarchists simply argue that lack of hierarchy is the best way to achieve freedom, while progressives argue that strong, democratic, regulatory institutions is the best way to achieve individual freedom. Actually, the whole point of democratic institutions is to place boundaries on people with dubious motives or personalities, as those will always abound.

Also, there is debate on the meaning of freedom, because most kind of freedom mean that some individuals are free to restrict others' freedom (for example, if you're free to contaminate a river, you're denying the freedom of those who rely on it for their water to live a healthy life). Progressivism tries to give this ability only to people that are democratically elected.
In an emergency, the safest way to burn fuel is to reach the closest airport and then circle it. Not head to a more distant airport which you might not reach because of the very emergency.

All hypotheses will invalidate the major premise: that the pilots chose that particular heading not randomly, but in a calculated attempt to reach the nearest airport because of an emergency. Basically, no matter where the plane would have turned, if you draw a long enough line you will find an airport. But that does not explain anything.
That makes three of us.

And if you decide to go down the route of hijacking a passenger jet, why not hijack one near your intended target?

Chances are there are hundreds of aircraft flying right next to your target everyday, simply hijack one of those on the day and fly it right into your target. 9/11 already proved the viability of this tactic.

How about we start paying attention to how we describe men? That quote was really unnecessary:

"They (women) aren’t just bad at behaving like arrogant self-aggrandizing jerks. They are bad at behaving like self-promoting narcissists, anti-social obsessives, or pompous blowhards"

which suggests men are mainly successful because they are those things.

I recently heard (in a finance lecture, but still) that 3% of men are psychopaths, and 1% of women. So yes, more men are psychopaths, but neither gender is off the hook, and the majority of people actually aren't psychopaths.
Really? I don't see any sign yet that the flight 370 hijacking involved unusual danger, difficulty or expense for the culprits: so far, as best we can see, it looks like stealing candy from a baby. Obviously to get people off it alive you'd need manpower and infrastructure, but either a dusty old Soviet-era airbase in metaphorical or literal Kazakhstan, or a ship to pick people up after a ditching in calm water somewhere, would be sufficient. Many state actors could arrange one or both of those without serious difficulty (some non-state actors too). I can't think of a way to kidnap a handful of Freescale engineers all at once from urban China or urban Malaysia that could be described as much much easier.

That said, I think it's highly improbable that the Freescale guys were targeted like this, but mainly because the political consequences of being caught doing something like this would probably be much too painful for most of the states who might really benefit from debriefing those engineers at length.

It makes perfect sense when the top priority is being able to isolate electrical systems in case of an electrical fault or an in-flight fire: http://www.askthepilot.com/malaysia-airlines-flight-370/
Great, except where are the dead people? And how did the plane keep flying for 7 hours after they were "dead"? Too many unanswered questions, me thinks.
Causality might go the other way though - if you are able to trust others growing up WITHOUT being hurt by it, devoting less brain power to suspicion and verifications may allow one to grow more intelligent.

Observational studies are never a recipe for action - just food for thought.

There's a double standard out there. Single women are expected to sleep with coworkers and if drama arises then it's not their fault, but men are expected to refrain from sleeping with coworkers and if relationship drama arises then it's always the man's fault if he dipped his pen in company ink. Your remark "grow up" is merely a logical fallacy used to conceal this double standard.

The "banging" was mentioned in the techcrunch article so it's definitely on-topic. How do you know that the other woman's jealousy was not aroused by Julie's projection of sexuality into the workplace via her demonstration of willingness to hook up with employees ?

When Julie hooked up with an employee she was demonstrating that in general she's willing to hook up with employees which put her on the other women's radar as a potential personal/political rival. I seriously doubt the other woman would have felt threatened if Julie's romantic foray hadn't come into play..

Again.. a reasonable guy would never have made a post about this kind of thing on hackernews instead he would have just accepted the drama as the consequence of his risky choice to engage in romance in the workplace. He would have just bit the bullet and moved on. Julie on the other hand is wilding out and she comes off as an unprofessional drama queen.
I also use my private repositories (simply setup using gitolite), but I simply also push to GitHub for the added discoverability.

I tend not to like GitHub however. The wiki/issue tracker actually require you to be online, which is the best thing about git: being able to work without network connection.

I'd like to find some project that syncs github issues with sd (http://syncwith.us/sd/) or bugseverywhere (http://www.bugseverywhere.org/), so that I could actually work on the issues without being online (the bigger pain point are attachments which need to be downloaded).

Another thing which I consider inferior to patches by mail are pull requests. Honestly, it's very rare that I can accept a patch without some reformatting or minor corrections. I also never ask people to do such minor reformatting just to be able to click 'accept'. Again, pull requests cannot be worked-on or accepted offline. Similarly, my patches sent to other projects are similarly handled by other authors.

The headline doesn't help, that's for sure. The fact is that gravitational waves have been detected already, though indirectly, and a Nobel prize was awarded for the observations more than 20 years ago. That's not why the BICEP2 results are a big deal.

The reason this news is important is two fold. One, the researchers were able to observe the effect of "b-mode" gravitational waves during the earliest moments of the big bang (within the first 10^-34 seconds) which reveal important details about the specifics of the big bang. They are indirectly observing an event which is older than all matter in the Universe, older than the cosmic microwave background, older than the cosmic neutrino background, older than dark matter even (which has a high likelihood of originating from the very early Universe when the 4 fundamental forces were still unified). Two, their observations are the first direct test for the theory of cosmic inflation which seems to have produced a definitive result and the result is significant evidence for inflation.

That, in turn, translates some theories into realities. For example, we tend to hedge our bets when it comes to estimating the size of the Universe, because only so much of it is visible to us. In a Universe where inflation holds the non-visible Universe must be unimaginably huge compared to the visible portion of it by many orders of magnitude. Also, most inflationary theories effectively produce multiverses (this is hard to explain, basically it's like a foam of different regions of the universe which are effectively universes unto themselves due to speed of light / expansion rate constraints).

Plus you're just testing the standard library implementations. If the hash lookup was the major focus for your program, you would be using a specialized hash map implementation.

eg, http://trove.starlight-systems.com/ or http://acs.lbl.gov/software/colt/ in the case of the Java version.

EDIT: Here is the kind of performance differences you get between hash implementations to demonstrate why you wouldn't just use the standard implementations if it's a performance critical part: http://b010.blogspot.com/2009/05/speed-comparison-of-1-javas...
