Yeah, I thought the same thing. However, this is much better, as it reloads without saving, it also doesn't have to wait that split second for a change notification from the FS. It's a VASTLY superior editing experience.
Even if you sleep with a mask (which is pretty common), or sleep with your head under the covers (which is even more common)?
Yeah, I have wondered why we can migrate questions to some .se sites, but not all (relevant) sites. For example, I can migrate to serverfault, but not codereview. I agree that SO can feel like a hostile place due to overly zealous users with close privileges.
How about single-pixels-with-(8-bit-looking-)textures? A slight gradient darkening away from the "front" of the character would make all the difference.
From that I assume that you are not a professional developer, right? I never thought about in from that perspective but I think we should actually discourage copying and adopting code. It will probably solve your current problem in shorter time but I am quite confident that really understanding what you and your code are doing will benefit you in the long term way more, for example when you have to fix bugs, make changes or solve a similar problem.
No. JUST NO. This is getting out of hand. You want to change the way people think, you do it through public discourse. You want to change the laws, you do it through votes. You lost a vote. Try again next time when you have more support. Don't hate a person and try to ruin their life because you think the world needs to function how you see it. I don't care anymore if I get downvoted. This HAS TO STOP. We HAVE TO STOP THIS. These people are hypocrites and I'm sick of it. I may vote against gay rights laws because they think they can manipulate the system. Sounds pretty stupid, doesn't it. Well, it's the same goddamn thing!

That site was started explicitly to take the questions rejected by StackOverflow. In an early incarnation, it was going to be called "Not Programming Related", from one of the popular close reasons on SO.

However, over time, it has been affected by the same ossification as StackOverflow. Quoting the 'about' page [1]:

Not all questions work well in our format. Avoid questions that are primarily opinion-based,
or that are likely to generate discussion rather than answers.

Don't ask about...

* general workplace issues, office politics, etc.
* implementation issues or programming tools
* Anything not directly related to software development
* Questions that are primarily opinion-based
* Questions with too many possible answers or that would require an extremely long answer

Fair enough on the office politics, and implementation issues and tools presumably belong on StackOverflow, but it's the peripheral subjects, opinions, and (gasp!) complex and open-ended issues that the site was originally created to handle. They are now forbidden there.

I'll defend UDP.

UDP is the honey badger of the internet protocol suite.

UDP is all about the transaction. UDP is standing on a cliff yelling, "Come at me, bro", whether you're there or not.

UDP is a man's protocol doing real shit like bootstrapping your ass and slapping an IP on you. Get up, motha fucka!

UDP will talk shit to one of you or all of you. UDP ain't scared. UDP brought the fear.

UDP understands that you may be slow sometimes. So UDP will wait for your sorry ass. UDP grew up without a father, too.

UDP sends a message and couldn't give a fuck if you got it or not.

UDP got a message from you saying that you got his messages and guess what? UDP didn't even open it! Not one fuck given.

Don't try to shake UDP's hand! You crazy?

And, when UDP dies because you weren't available, UDP doesn't shed a tear. UDP is hardcore. He's going out even if he knows you ain't there. UDP is a goddam one-man slaughter house. Why?

Because UDP doesn't give a fuck.
So the app/user just thinks it is a network/connection error?
I hope that they offer next day replacement machines. As it is now, when my laptop dies, I go to the Apple store, they say it will take a week to repair so I buy a new one on the spot. I later get the old one fixed and give it to my son as a hand-me-down. I've done that twice now, but it isn't the most predictable way to always have a Macbook.

It would be kind of cool to be able to get a replacement machine by FedEx the next day, and stay current on my hardware. (They tend to last a bit longer than 2 years).
Why would scrape JIRA when they have a perfectly workable API?
You have to have the email addresses before you can query Coinbase with them. The addresses didn't originate with Coinbase, the attacker already had them.
It's pretty nice, will keep testing it
It basically is a network/connection error. At this point in the transaction, neither side has had a chance to reveal anything sensitive.

If I understand the bug properly, basically all this says is "if you want to use client certificates with an iOS app, you have to use RSA".
Good to hear! Thanks for the feedback. I've had to fight against carousels several times, since they sometimes want to be used as a way to save space and fit more information, that's clearly bad UI but I certainly think that there are several cases in which they have their place.
FYI: I believe this to be a real, interesting far-future Bitcoin money-supply bug that's being presented in a semi-parodic fashion.

The joke may thus be that it's not entirely a joke, a little like the 1999 April 1st RFC2550, which actually presents some clever solutions for the Y10K date-representation problem and far beyond:

You can add a soft rate limit with a captcha to make sure it's a human doing the requests rather than a spammer's script.
A user on Lifehacker posted this comment there, and I thought it would be a really cool option:

Sorry, but this is stupid. I don't "not close" tabs because I'm too lazy and need a program to do it for me. I leave them open because I still need them as a reminder or to do list. So if that tool closes the least recently used tab there's the danger it's also the least well remembered point on my to do list.

An option that would make that application useful would be Bookmark folder where it puts the closed tabs so you can still access them while they don't fill the RAM anymore.

In my experience, real-time CSS feedback is night-and-day from auto-reload feedback. Ever since first trying MacRabbit CSSEdit (now part of Espresso) a few years ago, I've steered clear of preprocessors simply because I can work way more efficiently writing pure CSS in real time than with all of SASS's features and having to save every time I want to see a change.

Real-time CSS and SASS looks like a game changer.

draft-rescorla-tls-extended-random says: "A cryptographically secure PRNG [RFC4086] SHOULD be used."

RFC 4086 Section 6.2: "The correct technique is to start with a strong random seed, to take cryptographically strong steps from that seed [FERGUSON, SCHNEIER], and not to reveal the complete state of the generator in the sequence elements."

In other words, you should not reveal the complete state of your PRNG regardless of how many values you disclose, and the authors explicitly warned against using a PRNG that does so (in practice every PRNG with finite state will cycle at some point, at which point all future values become predictable, but good designs have cycle lengths in the range of 2^(several thousand), so 1 TB of random data is no problem).

Snap out of that mindless Telegram bashing loop, will you?

If anything, this CEO departure only shows that HN got the motivation for Telegram completely wrong. The assumption behind that gang up was that Telegram was trying to sabotage online privacy, because what else a Facebook-like entity may be doing in the domain of secure communications. Guess what? There was more to the picture than met the eye.

> meanwhile bank execs are dropped off at work by private guards specializing in counter-kidnapping operations

Perhaps there are some bank executives for which this is true, but it is absolutely NOT the case for all banking executives. I work with some bank executives and they drive themselves to work in their own cars. The buildings DO have alarm systems and it is quite possible for the FBI to respond to physical threat incidents (because it is treated as a bank robbery) but otherwise there is little that is special in the way of physical security.

And for Coinbase, I believe the lack of special physical guards is appropriate. A high percentage ("up to 97%" according to https://coinbase.com/security ) of their coins are in cold storage and while I am not privy to the details of Coinbase's arrangements, keysharing and multiple physical storage locations that are off-premises are a reasonable precaution. They are vulnerable to hostage-taking or "3 thugs with guns" to the exact same extent (no greater) as any other company with a similar amount of protection.

I can't comment on protection against hardware keyloggers: it's a threat that they need to be prepared for. Cold storage is one major way of protecting against this threat, business insurance is another.

The Best Advice
Re: Product Owner, Search (http://www.shutterstock.com/jobs.mhtml?jvi=orBnWfw5,Job)

I'm a (fairly recent) Shutterstock contributor and think search could be much improved, especially across languages.

I tried to communicate with SS on this subject, explaining the problem and stating that I had some experience with Lucene and SOLR.

The person I exchanged with ("Manager Contributor Success") was very nice, but we never really had an actual conversation about how search actually works; it seemed all he really wanted to do was convince me that all was for the best and if not, that it would eventually be.

Wouldn't it be nice if there was some kind of technical forums where contributors/customers and SS developers could really interact, from a technical point of view? If managed well, such a network could provide great value for SS, at probably very little cost ;-)

Smart-watch redesign
I understand your position.

Presumably SO wants to maximize its readership. What I've seen is that they allow any programming question, even of trivial nature, as long as it's objective not subjective. I like that and think it's a good way to maximize readership for objective stuff, because I often google for trivial things. For example, Powershell if/else/elseif syntax, if I haven't used Powershell in a while. I just found the syntax on SO within 10 seconds, with an example I can copy/paste/modify. I bet a lot of other developers use SO like that too, and I bet it's largely the reason people put trivial questions on there. My motivation is efficiency. Being efficient can be construed as lazy I guess!

You publicly complained about their customer service. They have offered to right the wrong. You have a poor sense of fairness if you are willing to make a public claim and then aren't willing to address the issue when the company calls you out on it.

Yea, I don't really see an issue here. I'm sure you could pull up something like this and point fingers about a specific issue for anyone who has ever donated to any candidate. Plus, these individuals opinions are not representative of their company.

"Certain statements in this press release, including statements regarding the ability of certain animals, domesticated or otherwise, to drive vehicles effectively and in a safe manner, as well as Tesla’s ability to bring these unique types of vehicles to market, are “forward-looking statements” that are subject to risks and uncertainties.

So what indicator statistics are good, then? "Take a look at the entire picture, not just the average" is great, but what am i going to put on my dashboard? What am i going to make my goal for the year?

On the technical side, when trying to boil down scads of metric datapoints into a single number, the statistics i usually end up using are the median and the 95th centile (or some higher centile). The median gives some sort of rough idea of where the middle of the main mass distribution is, ignoring the extremes, and the high centile gives an indication of where the top edge of the main mass is, ignoring freak outliers.

Would those be any use for revenue per customer?

Would we be better off with the median and some number that tries to capture the shape of the power law? Something that says "for every dollar you go up in revenue, the number of users drops by X%", or something like that?
Where are the OkCupid employees on that list?

Perhaps you should change the title to IAC Employees... It's fine to point out that employees at their parent company made donations to these politicians, but I don't see any work done here to link the data with OkCupid employees.

The dates of many of those contributions are way before IAC bought OkCupid.

Hi, there. I'm curious who on HN has written a book or multiple books, and if you have written a book what it is and what it is about.

No, the hooks currently supported are scripts that are run before and after the slug compilation phase. I don't think you would want to make your package installation dependent on pre/post install scripts that access the network.
Your Fragment subclasses is where your code that interacts with the user should be (the code that used to be in your Activity subclasses). Activity should contain Fragment objects by means of loading a layout.

The cool thing about Fragment is that you can organize your Fragment subclasses using different layout files, and you can organize the layout files using resource qualifiers. That means that Android is picking your layouts, and the number and layout of Fragment objects on a particular screen geometry, for you, instead of you having to write code that groks screen size, density, and text size.

I dislike navigation drawers almost as much as I disliked the now deprecated "dashboards." It is a place where you can do nothing but go some other place. If you have that big an app, I suppose it's OK. But making navigation a natural part of, say, picking an item from a list, or picking a menu item is preferable. Nav drawers look better than dashboards, but if you consider them from the user interaction PoV, they are the same.

Yes to using Bundle objects to move data. That's how sending data to a Fragment is independent of whether it is in the same Activity or not.
Makes sense (as a heuristic?), thanks a lot.
