Yes, it would be better to use escape sequences. If I remember correctly there were issues with terminal multiplexers stuffing data into the stream. So you'd need something smart serverside to escape each chunk.

In the current implementation, the server can be pretty dumb (i.e. all you need is a bash script). This was a requirement for me, because I spend a lot of time jumping between different Linux boxes which aren't configured as I might like them to be (in particular I wanted something that work when bouncing though odd ssh gateways etc).

So overall, the png rendering is intended as a quick hack, for when you want to render data quickly. As a proper inline rendering solution, it would be nice to add support for Sixels (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sixel) or something similar. If you google around I think there are a few terminals that support that, but none of them suited my requirements.

Overall, I was kind of happy with the code as a proof of concept, and still use the iOS version every day (it's a free iOS ssh client and does all the graphical support stuff). There's a lot that could be done though. Ideally I'd like to abstract out the ReGIS code, add Sixels support and then integrate that code into existing Linux and OSX terminal apps.

Good comment.

Nit: aerodynamic drag force is modeled as quadratic (squared) with speed. The power required is force times velocity, which means the power is cubic with speed, but the force is only quadratic.
This from the man who came up with the Hardy-Weinberg Equation[1], an extremely practical method of population analysis.

I'm curious what approach they took, because iframes don't really work in email (the majority of the clients block them, including gmail which they use in their example). Another option would be an image rendering of the message, but that would be pretty annoying to the recipient for not being able to select, copy or re-flow text.

I had the same annoying outcome as well. You can turn off just notifications from Google Now by clicking on the bell icon in your menubar (if you're on a Mac - do the equivalent on Windows/Linux) then clicking on the settings (gear icon) and then in there you can untick Google Now
What is the position of the author can be seen in one sentence from the article:

"Materialistic scientists have proposed a number of physiological explanations to account for the various features of NDEs."

Obviously, the author doesn't consider himself a "materialistic scientist."
They do images, with a link "click here to view as text" that redirects to sendpluto's web viewer.
Good catch! Knew I was missing something when the other comment referenced a quadratic relationship. (Updated)
Based on https://www.sendpluto.com/help, it looks like they could be creating images of the email text and sending the images in an email. That way, they're free to manipulate the image even after the email is sent.
Hmm, I thought ClearClick would catch that, but apparently it doesn't. That's unnerving. Even ABE lets it through.

That said, it would still require the victim to load the fake LinkedIn page (with the wrong domain), which is more likely to look suspicious.

And it would've loaded the router page after the POST (instead of redirecting to LinkedIn), which would definitively signal that something was wrong.
More than 50% were married or cohabiting. That would make it possible for every single child to be in a household being raised by a couple. This is probably the figure you are looking for:

"Sixty-five percent of married individuals had at least one child in the home, compared with 21 percent of single individuals"
The initial space for the solution was found with techniques that had the possibility of rounding errors, and then exact proofs were found. This is a standard technique, one that I used in my PhD. So yes, it is possible to prove that each point of "contact" is exactly coincident, and if you read the paper carefully you'll see that that's what the authors did.
Now that google fetches the images from its own servers once and then renders for all, would this even work?

Everything it displays (which is not much) is most of the time ever irrelevant or redundant. I think the outside temperature is the only information I find useful.
>You don't need to be running sshd. Given the relative complexities of the two daemons, it's vastly more likely that your server will be compromised via a vulnerability in sshd than via a vulnerability in spiped. (In fact, if you need to run SSH for the benefit of interactive logins, you're probably better off having sshd only listening on 127.0.0.1 and connecting to it via spiped.)

This is a really bad argument. It may be generally true that increased complexity leads to more vulnerabilities in general, but it's not necessary that increased size leads to a large increase in complexity. Poor software design that involves a lot of strange relationships between components inside of an application leads to vulnerabilities. Unless your code base is so small you can provide formal proofs of security, you can make absolutely no assertions based on code size that your code is more or less vulnerably than larger code bases.

Additionally, the number of attempts to break OpenSSH because of the massive user-base gives it a stronger security foundation than you to imply. Put another way, there are massive economic incentives for hackers to pour hours into finding vulnerabilities in OpenSSH since it's the gateway to millions of *nix systems on the Internet. Has spiped been subject to that level of scrutiny?

As a security-minded person, you should not be making grandiose claims about freshly released software being so much more secure than OpenSSH that it should be used to protect OpenSSH endpoints. Would you trust a newly released symmetric crypto algorithm more than AES just because it performed fewer operations?
I still struggled, but that's just me :P
Author here -- I'm happy to see the continued interest in this article. I had a lot of fun writing it. DynASM is some great work and doesn't have a lot of documentation, so I was hoping to bridge this gap with an introductory tutoral. And Brainfuck provided just the right problem for writing a short and sweet program that does something interesting.
Did anyone actually think that automation was the only thing killing jobs? And then you read it and find that the title has only a small portion to do with the actual content.

Coming from an economist (a professor at least), I'd expect a little bit more positive economic analysis and objectivity. This reads more like a sociology commentary.
Kind of reminds me of.....

"I actually think most people don't want Google to answer their questions. They want Google to tell them what they should be doing next." -Eric Schmidt
>Perhaps, but [automation] certainly reduces the relative value of labor vs. capital.

Automation does four things: 1. Drastically decrease the value of labor in the now-automated field. 2. Slightly decrease the value of all labor (by increasing the supply of free labor). 3. Slightly decrease the costs of all products (via #2). 4. Drastically decrease the costs of products which are now produces automatically (via #1).

These things all work out to be positive-sum for humanity. If this wasn't the case, it wouldn't make any economic sense for businesses to automate in the first place.
Amazing project. And I love the understated tone of this in the README:

"Security Requirements: The user is responsible for ensuring that any individual connection does not transmit more than 2^64 bytes."

If you don't happen to know how big 2^64 bytes is, it's over 18 BILLION GIGABYTES! We can probably safely assume most of us will never hit that limit on a single connection, haha.

This is reminding me of tabs for gmail. They'll figure out for you what you want to see, you don't get to tell them.
Thanks. RationalWiki also concludes:

"Non-materialist neuroscience has failed every single one of the categories. Its basic framework is unwieldy and does not provide any clear, specific, falsifiable predictions. What few tests might be imagined for it have all turned up evidence strongly against its basic predictions. It has failed to advance knowledge, create new hypotheses and definitely has not made clear how it will aid in helping us understand and treat brain injuries or illnesses. It has been a complete flop scientifically. So why the sudden surge in books and publications pushing it? We are dealing with a political and religious movement just as we have dealt with in intelligent design and creationism."

If incarceration and gang violence impact black men moreso than black women then it sounds like they are disadvantaged because of their gender. It sounds like you're trying to point to their race or class as the source of their problems but it doesn't make sense when you are directly comparing them with people of the same race and class but different gender.
Perhaps you should extend your analysis a little further.

What do you think happens when the supply of workers increases, and wages drop?

=> Production prices drop
=> The results of this are split between:
1. The rich make more money, and buy more stuff, draining the supply of labor and increasing wages
2. Things become cheaper, which counteracts the wage drop.

This is not rocket science. Before you just had people making things, and now you have machines and the same people making things. There are more things being made. This is, on balance, positive.
A simple fix seems to be to use longer random id for the invitation.

I made a very fast BF JIT based on this post: https://github.com/rmmh/beefit

I implemented a fair number of optimizations, but there aren't many large benchmarks to really crunch down on. An experimental register allocation pass was awkward (DynASM doesn't really support run-time register selection) and didn't improve performance much.
This would only for images linked back to Pluto correct? If they simply sent an image surely they can't come into my inbox and modify files?
Hi !

1) Since the posting of this blog, I have edited the blog post and now it is a bit sane. I admit it was extremely lousy earlier.

2) Please do not take this re-location post as a sexist comment, where I want to get the other person re-locate and I do not want myself to do so.It is not like that. This post is primarily meant for Indians living abroad and looking for an opportunity to come back to India. Thats it.
I apologise, if it meant anything else to you. It was not supposed to be.

3) There is no dearth of dating apps, but trust me all of them are bitterly broken, because I have used a lot of them.

4) Well, I removed the flexibility part of education, for my co-founder. I believe I definitely need someone who is a Psychology major and is a woman. I wrote name has been decided, but that does not mean, that I was not willing to re-consider it, if something better comes.

Finder's fees is nominal because, that is what I can afford after failing for 3 years and 9 months as a founder.

Well, I am open to all questions, and if you have something specific to ask, I'd be glad to answer them as well.

Thanks for writing in, it means a lot.

Cheers!

R4 3ds
The R4 3DS is without doubt the best accessory for the Nintendo 3DS console on the market, offering both a wide range of advanced features and value for money. The space of the R4 3DS memory ensures that you only need one such flash card to store all your games and movies.
>The problem is that the jobs that are left for those without a tech degree of some sort aren't appreciated by the market

So then people in the future get a tech degree, and humanity will be better off, because instead of a million people with a tech degree and 999 million farming, we now have 0 people wasting their precious mind on farming and a billion solving hard problems.

Like I said, people will be forced to retool. That is a good thing.
The collision rate seems pretty high and to someone with a bit of resources (say 500 ips) to go through the ids would take 3~ days at 1 request per second.

The party would have a list of of flickr users / email combinations.

The best way to fix this if they want to have the urls work for some backward compatible reason is probably severe rate limiting after x requests if they do not want to expire these requests -- right? Otherwise, something the size of UUID will make the search space too large.
Mine thinks substantially the same, but allocates costs such that I've never profited from work physically performed in California.
Anybody to explain advantages and disadvantages of spipes over using TLS?
IMO there is. Because we put up with it. We take for granted that "of course leaving $3k of stuff at a busy coffee shop it's going to get stolen". That's the problem. That we accept it. There's a whole set of rules we've learned to work around these problems. We think they're common sense. That is until we experience places that point out they aren't common sense. Rather they're just a way of letting us not actually deal with the problem.

The response to "I left my stuff out and it got stolen" shouldn't be "Oh, you shouldn't have left your stuff out". It should be "we should catch that criminal and find a way to make it so it's safe to leave your stuff out".

And I didn't say Japan or Singapore were nirvana. Only that one part of them points out things we take for granted shouldn't be taken for granted.
We got both kinds of science here, simulation and theoretical approximation
Quote: "The signal, at 37.5 kHz per second ..."

I haven't seen this construction since the early 1960s, when the new SI units came into use and people were still confused about the meaning of "Hertz". "KHz per second" literally means "thousand cycles per second, per second".
Hi !

I have experienced the re-location just now. It would be extremely foolish of me to expect someone well entrenched in her job to leave it and re-locate to my country.

This was primarily meant for people of my country living abroad, who might be looking forward to an opportunity to come back to their country.

If you have any specific questions regarding this do let me know, I'd answer them.

Thanks !

I love how publicly posting bugs shifts the balance of power. "schofield" probably though it was just a conversation between Yahoo and the submitter. Now it's a conversation between Yahoo and Hacker News.

Welp, the verdict is schofield is being dense. Of course user relationship pairs are potentially sensitive. Therefore enabling attackers to discover them by enumerating your tiny key space is an issue.

Either schofield needs to wisen up or Yahoo needs to put someone better in charge of their security issues.
An useless but fun observation: you can do the litres/100km division and arrive at units of area. A family car might have a fuel consumption of 0.05 mm^2.

This is the cross-section of the imaginary pipe of fuel along the highway that a car with no fuel tank would have to pick up as it travels.
Hi !

I do not think it is illegal in my country, but I do not think it is ethical to do so, unless it warrants so.

Unless Iunderstand a woman's point of view and thoughts regarding dating and meeting people, this stuff would not move an iota.

So I need only a woman co-founder.

Of all the innumerable dating apps in this world, probably only 1 or 2 would have a woman founder/ co-founder and that is the reason why you see all the apps men-centric.
The response to this bug is atrocious and shameful. The developer that responded to this did the same as putting on a blindfold and declaring that because they could no longer see the bug, it must not exist.

Right from the get-go, schofield showed incompetence when they declared they couldn't reproduce the bug, even though it was explained to them plainly and thoroughly!

How do these inept developers get hired?

Thank you very much, that aptly sums up my position on this.

We already have a registered entitiy/company. I have failed in 2 ventures in past 3 years and 9 months of my entreprenurial journey.
Yes, and that would make it so they would not collide anymore, so I'd be interested to know why they did not use that solution. Probably it would also give a wrong feel in gameplay.
I haven't messed around with x86 enough to know whether it is actually somehow easier than the ARM stuff, but I certainly agree with you that CPUs are damn complicated.

I loaded up the datasheet for the M3's when typing up this reply. 384 pages. Contrast that with the TI 74181 ALU datasheet from the days of old: 18 pages, most of which are just detailed diagrams of the distances between the pinouts. The logic diagrams fit on a single page. You can build a simple CPU using one of these machines in a few hours in your basement.

Hardware is only going to get more complicated. At what point does it become so complicated that no one person can reasonably understand how a computer works "under the hood", even from an abstract level?

yoav at veedme com
As jpalomaki points out it's better than that... We are entering a brave new world of spam that's "from" people you know.
"Full-time paid position" was advertised as many times people say/advertise that co-founder would receive substantial equity but would have to work without any financial remuneration for some time.

It is not like this here. You might be a co-founer but equity in a startup would not pay your bills, right?
Knowing an individual's network of names and email contacts in a highly specific domain could be quite attractive for a phisher. This seems quite different from viewing the contact list on, say, Twitter, where an individual explicitly makes their contacts known to the world (and via synonym only).

The response surprises me.
Correct. The scheme requires some way to link the received e-mail's content to Pluto's servers. This must be so because it's not possible to delete or modify an independent email (i.e. one without links) once it's been delivered.
Furthermore, Yahoo can not unilaterally choose to define what is "sensitive". In the EU, many countries implementation of the Data Protection Directive considers e-mail addresses personally identifiable information, which makes it subject to the relevant laws.

Given that Yahoo operates in a number of European countries, and have offices and legal entities in many of them, this potentially means they are legally liable for data protection breaches if they don't plug this hole.
Quick question, I've been stuck doing CRUD for way too long but have always had an interest in low level programming. Unfortunately the few times I have tried to give it a shot I always come back defeated to my CRUD world, it all seems very alien to me. What do you think is the best way for your typical CRUD/Web developer with no background in low level programming whatsoever to dive in to low level stuff? Any tips or links to resources you may have are very much welcome :)
Yeah it would be a fairly simple fix in code: they could hash some of the user data (e.g. email + name) and then append the id to create a token that won't ever collide and is always unique. e.g. http://www.flickr.com/invite/?resend=<hash>-<id>
