Most murderers get out in a few years. Google has no sense of due process whatsoever. You should be allowed back in after a while -- especially if you were very young.
Chromebooks aren't just competing with laptops, they also have to compete with tablets. Consumers/education/business are much more likely to buy iPads over Chromebooks because of the much better software ecosystem. Most of Google's services have apps on iOS so I can't really think of why someone would choose a Chromebook over an iPad unless they were completely price sensitive (the cheapest iPad is $300, the HP Chromebook 11 is $280). I think the success of touchscreen smartphones shows that it's not going to be the hardware keyboard that drives people to it.
In the Social Network DVD commentary extras you can see the monitors with a green screen. All computer scenes have been edited in post production.

You can check the Full HD version, frame by frame and read real perl code and shell commands like wget. The screenplay even is based 1:1 on the real blog posts of Zuckerberg (except the girls name).

I wonder if they were able to reuse Facebook website design by using archive.org. Shortly after the movie was released Facebook changed the robots.txt to disallow and prevent archive.org.

But there are some minor errors. Like later in the movie somehow Zuckerbergs PC runs Windows XP instead of Linux. And in one short scene the Windows XP screen is not completely visible, the right side is cut of (like the clock of the taskbar).

> Yes, thanks for saying this, it really brings balance...

> Oh wait... It doesn't change the way Samsung comes out of this.

You clearly have a psychological issue with understand what 'balance' is. When you point out facts that show a company to behave poorly but then ignore the facts showing their competitor to behave poorly, that is not balance. I did not once suggest Samsung didn't do these things, but to gloss over Apple's egregious and flagrant dismissals of EU wide court authority is to bias an article.

I'm sorry you are incapable of seeing this.
Hiding the URL means hiding, or encapsulating, HTTP(S) from the user. Eventually, paving the way for a replacement of that venerable document-centric protocol for something more app-centric. That's my bet anyway.

>>American "hegemony" as you call it has only been good to the US' closest allies and trade partners. China, Russia and India to name three big ones have had to develop by themselves independent of American support

Are you aware of the democratic peace theory? Check wikipedia. In short, [stable] democracies don't have wars. Not even USA starts wars with (or intervene in) stable democracies.

Most of the cases "suffering" from USA are ~ evil juntas.

India is an exception, they have voluntarily turned to Russia for e.g. buying weapons -- I don't know if the country "had" to do anything, re USA (they do benefit from the global market). But Russia's junta prefers to cooperate with non-democracies -- and actively demonizes the world's working democracies. China is doing even worse jingoism than Russia.

In short -- don't mix up packs of thieves stealing countries with the countries themselves. Or with democratic governments.

>> Globalisation, unless EVERY single nation on Earth adopts isolationism both economically and socially, is unavoidable.

Why would globalization necessarily be handled in a good way? We could get the military empire building back; Russia and China have started.

There is a lot of experimentation going on now that cells can be manipulated readily and cheaply. It's still the very early days, but much can be done.

The sort of work described in the article overlaps with that of efforts to enhance cells with additional machinery, such as additional organelles [1] or programmable surface chemistry [2], and the equally interesting approach of creating entirely artificial cell-like entities, designed machinery [3] wrapped in a membrane. [4]

We will have microrobotics in our medicine before nanorobotics, I think, and those microrobots will look a lot like cells. There will eventually be a blurring at the boundary between engineered cells - such as those used in trials of some immune therapies and stem cell treatments - and things that are not natural cells but look very much like them.

The discovery and development of the moving parts is very similar to that of raw nanomedicine and rudimentary medical nanorobotics, but riding on the back of all the existing cellular machinery enables more to be done sooner and with less.

Probably has something to do with their high national debt. Many people seem to believe that high national debt reflects a population that chooses government subsidies over employment. You see that with Greece and Spain a lot.
Remote freelance work is a race to the bottom. A better way to earn some extra money is to build a small service (SAAS) like OLark, or, Launchrock, and charge $10/month. Support your customers with a passion, add customers slowly, and before you know it, you will have 100 customers. That will earn you $12K every year forever. It is far better than doing odd programming jobs for others, there is no capital required, and, it is a far more certain way to make extra money than developing an App for iOS or Android.

By "my bet" do you mean:

1. "Google has a master plan and are gently testing the water to see how far they can push it"

(2) is quite reasonable and (1) is a conspiracy theory that I personally think is a little absurd.
Because the article you quote doesn't have any numbers beyond 21%.

First, 21% does not mean "top selling". And the 21% does not include consumer sales, nor PCs sold by OEMs, such as Dell and Hewlett-Packard, directly to businesses.

http://www.computerworld.com/s/article/9245212/Analysts_blas...

Google knows the real numbers but doesn't want to reveal them. If they're the top selling laptops in the US why not?
The article you quote is just shoddy reporting dressed up as numbers and it's sad to see people fall for it. The headline is just flat out wrong.
Likewise for most of GitHub's other libraries. Sundown is some of the worst code I've ever seen.

If you categorize all desktop apps ever made as "legacy", sure, it's hard to see why people wouldn't use a Chromebook.

On the other hand, non-technical users are happily torrenting shows and movies, playing 3D-intensive games on Steam, making somewhat decent-looking documents with Word, making gifs with a pirate copy of Photoshop, etc.

A Chromebook offers (generally inferior) alternatives for some of these tasks, but not even all of them.
Because companies look for opportunities to refer to and reinforce their brand. Exactly as you would if you'd built a browser.
The accept-language header is dead. It's simply ignored by every site. Some crappy sites like Origin even make it impossible to set the language to anything but German even by changing the URL directly. Google took years to even allow me to manually set everything to English, until about 1-2 years ago some settings were impossible for me to reach in English even when everything was set to English.

It's just like with Windows, applications use the location instead of the OS language to chose what language to default to.

L10n is broken. And no one seems to have any real interest in fixing it. The tools are there but they get ignored by pretty much everyone.
There is no more value or correctness in calling life 'pointless' or 'absurd'.

Framing things that "life is about helping people" is bizarre and "in the end life is absurd and pointless" is not right, it's still trying to put human concepts on an inexplicable universe, but positioning oneself as superior to everyone else while doing so.
As ineffective as biometric unlocks (TouchID, etc) are in targeted data retrieval scenarios, I'd wager their wider adoption would effectively kill casual smartphone theft.

Every 5S owner I know actually uses TouchID. I'd guess around half of the 5/5C users I see bother to use the four-digit PIN, because it's a longer process to unlock.

Smartphones unattended on a bar will be a less attractive target when the default assumption is that it's locked, and would be a large undertaking to put it into a state useful for the thief's personal use or resale. Making locking convenient enough that everyone does it (and the phone's physical security strong enough that it's an actual ordeal to bypass) would build a herd immunity for smartphone owners.
> The one technical challenge I suppose could be a concern would be optionally implementing some sort of test to detect domain registration attempts that use similar-looking characters to those in existing legitimate domains (e.g., registrations from scammers attempting phishing attacks with domains that look similar to other domains but use different extended characters).

This is called the IDN homograph attack (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IDN_homograph_attack).
My last sentence was intended as a satire, lyrics are obviously not uniformly distributed between writers. I completely agree with you though, the song (despite my disdain for it) is incredibly catchy, and definitely not intended to be thoughtful or thought provoking in nature.
MF DOOM is on the list. He's above average, but well below Aes or most of Wu-Tang. I've listened to a fair number of rappers, and I was pretty confident Aes would be at the top of this list.

I agree it would be cool to see a list of all rappers, though. I was surprised not to see Del, and maybe there is some more obscure rapper I'm not thinking of with a broader vocabulary than Aes.
Isn't making money about doing something?

It's close imposible to get money without making something useful.
If you are programmer your treasure is coding, so if working for someone else as freelancer is for somebody not good idea, because it won't make enough money and you have already full-time job, probably only another way is making something on your own.

Start building something you can sell. It could be a book, an app, a SaaS. You might not (probability won't) get it to +$15k this year. That shouldn't stop you from beginning. If you make something thst people are willing to pay for, you should be able to EVENTUALLY get to +$15k (and more!)
No, the conclusion is "If you want to compare different servers using benchmarks that you compile, you need the compilers to match, or you need to take that into consideration. This should be something you unearth by following an [active benchmarking](http://www.brendangregg.com/activebenchmarking.html) approach, where you study and understand what the benchmark really does."
I'm aware of that, however the literal meaning could easily have also applied here.

True. Of course consumerism wouldn't probably even exist as a concept if our brains weren't somehow prewired to the "gotta catch'em all" mentality. Probably various hunter-gatherer adaptations at work.

That would avoid extra overheard in the last case.

If getting 12k/yr in annual in revenue is easy, then getting 1MM/yr is also easy (after going from 0->100, just make two more hops: 100->1000 and 1000->10000). Since we know that building a MM/yr business is anything but easy, one of our assumptions must be wrong. Which one is it?:

a) 0 -> 100 users is easy

b) 100 -> 1000 users is easy

c) 1000 -> 10000 users is easy

My gut feeling is that a) is actually the hardest step.
Please don't post substanceless one-liners here.

The second one sounds more serious, but "wow time to start talking about the ethics of immortality" doesn't engage with anything in this article; it's simply an immediate leap to something generic and obvious. That is not what HN discussions need.
Well, at least our current computers do not have such state.

I don't see a problem, the halting state was always an abstraction. Only the mathematical Turing construction stopped after it reached a result. Computers go on and work on something else.

How long would effects like this last? I mean, let's say a bunch of children donated blood for the cause, and we used it to replace the blood of a senior citizen.

I don't know how to phrase this properly, but how long does the blood maintain the youthful qualities? Do you constantly need new blood coming in from a young donor? Do you receive it once and you're good for a week? A year?
Cask could be awesome, but it's not at this stage. There are no upgrades, in many cases it doesn't work. Most apps complain that they are not in /Applications, but are in ~/Applications instead and so on. At the end of the day, it duplicates some of the Homebrew functionality - some non-GUI packages are getting into Cask, because possibly Homebrew doesn't want them - it's a bit confusing as well. I think efforts should be put into merging into Homebrew instead of keeping it separate.

These are complicated, and we haven't even delved into common abbreviations, street layout consistency, relative addressing, or, god forbid, international addressing.

Yet somehow people write, address, and successfully send mail, every single day. They get in their cars and navigate the interstates and the weird street grids and one-way streets that they're unfamiliar with, and eventually wind up at the right place.

Or, they plug the address into their GPS and get there, without ever really understanding how the GPS performs the routing, just that it does, but still fully cognizant of what the addresses mean, even if they don't understand the system under which they were allocated.

I don't think your argument holds water; not even a little.
This author needs to build his case before jumping to the conclusion, "And now, I hesitate to recommend it to anyone for any use." This was one article, on one day. It was clearly a scam, but it was one article. And if the Google complaint form is more focused on the publisher maybe that is because most of the problems submitted are from publishers.

The author needs to submit the complaint and move on.

Its better to have one opinion then ten conflicting ones. Its also easier to learn how to do something from an opinionated source then one that tells you to do "whatever you want", without providing you with good ways of evaluating the choices and intelligent defaults.
Tl;dr: By placing load on suspected hidden service hosts (over normal, non-anonymous IP), one can then measure the change in clock skew (as a result of higher CPU / chassis temperature from the higher load) over the anonymous channel to confirm it is the same host (by comparison with clock skew before load).

The result holds over many hops and onion layers (this is the usual "the average of random noise is zero" thing). Very cool.

Would it be practical to use some kind of external clock? This might remove CPU temperature variations from the clock at least.

It seems like it would be relatively easy to test out. People donate blood all the time. I'm sure the effects are known of how much blood you can replace at once without causing issues. Without a doubt some elderly people would volunteer. Why can't we start giving them new blood once a week from donors, and see the results on their health or illnesses? I'm all for testing, but this seems like one of those things you could quickly move to human trials.
