Actually, privacy protection is one of few issues in which the EU is on the side of the citizens.

Also, anything critical of the EU will get you downvoted into oblivion on HN.

I sincerely hope that the upcoming EU elections will open people's eyes to the waning support for the EU's faux democracy. (In the Netherlands there is currently a large crowdsourcing initiative being set up to counteract the EU's censorship of the election results. Although most voters are likely to simply boycott these fake elections.)
FPGA bitstreams are big, sometimes even big enough that you couldn't fit another bitstream in hardware anywhere. What's more, making even a small change to the bitstream and re-synthesising tends to completely change how the design is laid out in hardware - so launching an attack that targets a specific bitstream, like most of the obvious nefarious-fab attacks, isn't much good.
Also worth noting that Scotland could realistically become independent of the UK in a referendum this year (opinion polls have a small margin against), which will leave it both out of the UK and out the European Union.

Brunel is one of my heroes.

I was born in Bristol and he was a large part of the city's heritage and featured in the school curriculum. I have an early memory of standing on the edge of the Avon watching the SS Great Britain come under the suspension bridge into the Cumberland Basin in around 1970.

Funnily enough, I visited the ship again just the other weekend for the first time in about 30 years. It is only apparent to me now just how advanced the ship was at the time. This was the very first iron-only ocean-going liner and even the use of a propeller was bleeding-edge when it was built, and yet some the techniques used were similar to what you might see now. If you're ever in the area, I really recommend a visit.

Also worth mentioning is Maidenhead Railway Bridge
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maidenhead_Railway_Bridge

built in 1838, which held the record for the longest flattest brick arches in the world up until only quite recently I believe. It appears in Turner's famous painting "Rain, Steam, Speed"
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Rain_Steam_and_Speed_the_...

and also has a fantastic sounding echo underneath.
I think what's more important here is that I'd have to right to ask the company to delete my info, even if it doesn't completely disappear from the web. If I ask Facebook to delete my account, then it better delete everything it has ever collected about me, no questions asked.

Facebook may or may not do that right now (who really knows, when they change their privacy policy several times a year), and if it does it, it's mainly because of some recent lawsuits in Europe. It used to be very reluctant to do so. Some companies, and I think Facebook, too, argue that once you gave them your data then it's "theirs". That's not right, and they shouldn't be allowed to act like that.
> I'd rather they just told the truth. Lying for a good cause is still lying.

I'm with you on that.

As for the rest: Do you mean, if you as a donator have seen through the lie, which should you donate to? Oh, I see, you're saying that liars might successfully get people to donate to them when otherwise they would have given the money to a more important cause. Yes, that's a problem. It's just that, well, people tend to think their cause is the most important in the world, and that siphoning money away from other causes for dishonest reasons is not a problem. [Well, for many causes you probably couldn't fool yourself into thinking that, but it seems distressingly common.] Charities who do this may be considered "selfish". It seems the irony doesn't always bother them.

If we could tell those people "You idiots, you are hurting your cause by lying and I can prove it", then that would give them a selfish reason to stop, which seems it might work. Get them to stop, or if they don't, get the reasonable-minded others in their organization to kick them out or leave. It would be nice if they stopped for the right reasons, but if they did it for this reason, that'd still be an improvement.
django CMS 3 has drag-and-drop for re-arranging pages and the contents on the pages themselves. Could you expand on what Widgy does better here?

Perhaps families make those choices because it is more efficient to send boys to school?

I'm sure they do. Nobody is trying to demonize families and claim they hate their girls. In fact, Camfed itself says that the reason boys are chosen is simply because they're more likely to find a job after graduation.

Maybe some other solutions could be found, for example "we pay for your boy's education, but only if you also let us educate your girls".

Yes, if the organization had unlimited resources, I'm sure they would be glad to pay for every child's education. That's not the reality, though, so they have to prioritize by focusing on those who wouldn't get an education otherwise. And for the most part, that's girls.

In any case, I think if an organization also helps boys, it shouldn't claim to be a "help the girls" organization.

Seems like a pedantic objection to me.

The Vasa was in cold, brackish water. Low salinity is good for preservation.

Sinking somewhere difficult to reach is important, to prevent salvage.

The Vasa had her cannon brought up to the surface but was otherwise left alone. I went to the museum on a whim last year and was pleasantly surprised. It's not just the hull of the ship, everything onboard was preserved.

Really cool engineering project lesson, too. The Vasa had a critical engineering flaw (way too top heavy) that came about due to pressure from the king. As a result, she sank as soon as she was launched on her maiden voyage!
If John Doe was supposed to be on a business travel, but was actually at the zoo with his mistress, it can cause harm.

You should retort that it was John's mistake in the first place to lie and cheat, and that is not your fault, and that maybe he should be rightfully punished. However, we are all humans, and no one is perfect.

Very basically the "right to privacy" is the right to make errors and to not be judged for something you said or did twenty years ago.

Or it might add up to next to nothing, if a full run is eight hours. Or it might finish early and then be blocked waiting for some other part of the system.

The moral of "computers are fast" is that guessing about bottlenecks and twiddling with the lowest level of code is unlikely to help; you need to start at the top with a profiler, and start asking the questions "do we need to compute this at all?", "can we make it O(n log n) or better?", and "can we partition this to scale horizontally?"

I sincerely think it's a good thing for the courts to look out for individuals's rights, but they are overestimating the power of the law. A thing can't be removed from the Internet once published, and forcing Google to remove it from their index is at best a middling measure that may slightly limit the exposure of said material.

I wish the court would grant me the right to fly as well, but it's beyond their power. I guess they just need a few more decades for the judges to die off and for the new old men to have a better intuitive understanding of the way the digital world works.
Hi, author here. REST has its set of semantics, but (a) I don't think they're particularly useful for building computational services with, and (b) it's for all practical purposes predicated on HTTP, which carries a lot of baggage. Each _request_ is stateless (barring things like sessions^H^H^H^H^H hack workarounds), but clients and servers certainly are not; and, how one maintains that state and orchestrates further REST interactions based on an intermediate response is entirely on the implementer, _every single time_ a service or client is built/used.

I'd personally much prefer communication and computational primitives that can just as easily be used for a point-to-point interaction as they can be used to _build_ an ESB (enterprise service bus, I believe you mean?) if that's what I want.

I don't think nouns vs. verbs are a useful distinction. Turning operations into data is a first step, but all data is not equivalent. Some representations lend themselves to composition such that you can represent essentially arbitrary structures (sets, graphs, trees, multimaps, etc), but most (including the common ones of JSON and XML) do not. Likewise, some data representations allow for commutative operations so as to reconcile concurrent actors' activity, but most (again including JSON and XML) do not.
One of the main reasons the Vasa is so well preserved is that the Baltic isn't saltwater - it's just slightly brackish. In saltwater, shipworms will eventually eat away any exposed wood, but they don't live in brackish or fresh water.

Then again, Apple had the same problem with the iPhone. They managed to solve it by lanching in a few countries first and working tightly with selected mobile operators.

I agree that it's hard, but they've shown the willingness to do hard and boring things before and take their time, launching in markets when they're ready (look at how long it took them to launch on Verizon).

However, the cable and sattelite providers also have a huge interest in pushing their own set-top boxes loaded with their streaming services etc. So I think the real issue isn't just software, it's politics and contract negotiations.

I don't think Apple is going to be happy with a situation where customer spend 90% of their time pushing buttons on a non-Apple remote control. So they probably won't be relying on set-top boxes unless they think they have such a compelling story on the content side that most people won't bother with the set-top box.

This is awful... "Automatically Mark as watched your TV" makes no sense to me, but I get what it's trying to do - automatically mark TV content as watched. But as far as I can tell, this doesn't work with a TV?

They totally lost me at "KNOW YOUR STATS - WASTED WATCHING TV SHOW". Excuse me, but when I'm watching a TV show, I'm not WASTING time. I enjoy my time when watching TV shows. There's a huge difference between watching TV and wasting time...

A court can't prevent you from being killed by a car either, but should that mean it shouldn't punish someone driving drunk? Even if that is, at best, a middling measure that may slightly limit the probability of someone getting hit by one?

Several scholars have noted that even though Xeer may be centuries old, it has the potential to serve as the legal system of a modern, well-functioning economy.

This makes no sense, given the remainder of the article, as a modern, well-functioning economy (of which Somalia certainly does not have one) requires diversity. Xeer relies heavily on ingrained cultural norms, and is discriminatory against minorities and women. Lack of impartiality is also a question, given that you are assigned a judge at birth.

It might work well in Somalia, but I can't see what is described as being translatable elsewhere. There are some elements that aren't Xeer-specific (like reducing focus on punitive measures), but as a whole, I can't see it working somewhere else that doesn't have the same social structure.
Sure, but the point is that you can get some pretty nice speeds without writing any C yourself.
Python is implemented in C as well and it's still a dynamic language, which was the point here, i guess.

> It spends the other 68% of its time doing calculations and waiting for the results of the memory accesses.

It is bit odd though, the code is processing data at about 4GB/s, and modern system should have lot more RAM bandwidth (eg about 10GB/s for DDR3-1333). It feels like there should be still significant room for optimization.

> 0.5s down from 0.6s is not "twice as fast", it is a 16.67% improvement. I'm not sure where the 0.25s was pulled from.

I think the 0.5 was typo (missing '2') and should be instead 0.25

(Author here.) As a start, hopefully removing the blinders that makes statements like "many API users are not knowledgeable to the intricacies of network programming" oh so true. That that statement can be made without popular incredulity only reinforces the point that modern network API technologies have largely been built to sustain the illusion that there is no network, and you're just making a method call somewhere. Insert this-plt-life GIF here. :-P

Building systems with things like CRDTs and tools and languages that support CALM will allow people using point-to-point APIs to continue to do the things they do now, but remove much of the incidental complexity from the equation. An example would be that, when you are relying upon N replication mechanisms to move CRDT state or operations from _here_ to _there_, you don't need complex timeout, retry, and backoff mechanisms to compensate for the realities of what's connecting the two parties. The message will arrive when it arrives...exactly the only guarantee that you can make in the general case of someone talking to external services.

I wonder why GCC does not autovectorize the loop in bytesum.c even with -Ofast. With autovectorizer, GCC should make the plain loop as fast as SIMD intrinsics. Autovectorizer can't handle complex cases, but this is as simple as it can get.

from the manpage of cat(1) my emphasis:

"cat - concatenate files and print on the standard output"

Cat has quite a few options that clearly deal with text files: --number-nonblank, --show-ends, --number, -show-tabs, --show-nonprinting, --squeeze-blank ...

BSD cat[1] is a little more conservative, but it's not entirely clear cut that when printing to standard output (or reading from standard input) you want binary mode. And silently copying a binary stream to a text stream does sound like a bug. Even if that is the expected behaviour of standard "cat".

"I've never seen an RPC system that I really liked."

I must admit I've never seen a message passing system that I really liked either :-) Mind you that's possibly because of times making stuff work in environments where someone made the decision "you shall use message passing for all inter-system communication" even when it wasn't always the best option.

These days my practical test for a remote API is whether I can stand using it through cURL - if I can happily do stuff from the command line then the chances are that code to do stuff won't be too insane.

Unless 0.5 is a typo and it should have actually read 0.25. Then the last line makes more sense too. Except of course 20/0.25 = 80x and not 20x as claimed in step 4...

The US Navy did run a number of nuclear powered cruisers up through the California class. Originally the idea was to keep up with the carriers whose range was limited by their fossil fueled escorts. Still the nuclear powered surface ships other than carriers fell out of favor as more efficient fossil fueled ships came about which also had much lower man power requirements.

Considering the large surface area of many cargo and passenger ships it would seem to indicate the possibility of some usage of solar power. The big issue being efficient enough panel construction in the face of the harsh conditions they would face.

Ah, I'd always assumed point was meant in the sense of 'pointy'.

I've never encountered trouble with cellphones traveling internationally, but I've only traveled in Asia/Oceania so I suppose that's not necessarily representative of the global situation.

Having the courts decide ownership may be expensive, but those costs should be weighed against the costs from having only 4 organisations owning pretty much the entire spectrum across the entire country, as is currently the case. If a court-based system resulted in for instance 20 companies now owning various parts of the spectrum and competing vigorously, the benefits of that might make up for any extra legal costs.
Yes, there is a room for optimization. It seems to me bytesum_intrinsics.c doesn't saturate RAM bandwidth because loops are not unrolled. You should unroll the loop in addition to SIMD so that SIMD loads complete while SIMD adds are done, hiding memory latency. Otherwise you wait on loads.
What i like most about this demo is that the code is actually very readable, and the blog article explains it very well. Most of the times the code for these kinds of demos looks like line noise :)
trakt does not have Anime and was always more designed for the API, not so much usable website. We're trying to make the web site more user friendly. We also already have our own software for detecting TV shows and Anime (success detection rates are currently 90%, which trakt does not have), trying to make it work with the large Movie detection databases as well. And we will have an open API as well just as trakt.
Can someone please explain why there is a distinction between Anime and TV Shows? Its my understanding that Anime are either in a Movie Format (Standalone) or in a TV Format (Series).

This is true, and in fairness I've never had any problems with unicode using any of your libraries, probably because you take a lot of care in explicitly dealing with encoding.

But that's not always the case with other libraries like the csv module. The core unicode support in py3 means that a lot of librares which are not written with explicit unicode in mind Just Work with it in py3, and its a huge time saver.
but isnt that just a categorisation like Crime, Drama, Comedy? Anf if not: how are other (non japanese) animated movies/series (justice league etc) treated?
