EDIT: I should disclaim that I have exactly no expertise here. This is all me having fun speculating.

I think you're being too handwavy about what FHE is capable of. FHE means that specific operations performed on encrypted data result in data that, when decrypted, have the right result in cleartext. It's not "hiding the data". So it can't run your encrypted bytecode, only transform it into other, also encrypted bytecode, which it also can't interpret. Executing encrypted bytecode doesn't really make sense, because the bytecode tells its interpreter what to do. Either the interpreter can read that information and do it, or it can't. The former means its not encrypted in the first place, and the latter means it won't work. You're trying to use a scheme by which the interpreter doesn't how to evaluate a function, but evaluates it correctly anyway.
Oh good, you replied to factual statistics with a bunch of feel good nonsense from Jezebel, which we all know is a respected journal in the social sciences.

I am not sure. My understanding is that Panda 4.0 is an "anti thin content" algorithm update.

If I were to define "good thick content" in a way that a robot could understand, I might look at the following variables:

- High wordcount, let's say maybe 1,000 words or more

- At least 1 relevant image on the page

- Bonus points if it's an original image (i.e. not a stock photo)

- High ratio of words to links out

- Lots of social shares

Going with that profile, it's possible that ask.com etc. were the intended targets and Metafilter was collateral damage.

This is all speculation so take it with a grain of salt.

My pattern is the opposite. At home, Comcast routes v6 traffic so poorly (a 50ms latency increase in most routes) that I have no choice but to disable it. However, at work, I enjoy low-latency v6 connectivity.

This was a good call. eBay has just officially denied that the user data is theirs [1], and there are claims online that the data was from a separate previous breach [2]. This is almost definitely a scam.

As an iOS user the concept is great and many people would LOVE something similar in the iOS world. It sounds like the implementation has some interface flaws that cause people problems.

I haven't had a spleen in over twenty years. In my experience, asplenia has not led to sickness any greater than the norm. I have kept up with recommended vaccinations, but I'm personally not a very "clean" person. I get sick a couple of times a year, which seems typical, and I've only been memorably sick a couple of times since I lost my spleen. Certainly you and others have different experiences. Perhaps your antibiotic requirements are more related to surgical wound healing?

Hasn't that been the case for a long time? I'm pretty sure I remember seeing stuff along the lines of, "If you'd like an additional IP address for your server, contact us and tell us why you need it" a decade or more ago.
No. It's because they're different things. The idea here is that we perform the operation, but the output is not known either. So my data can pass through my system with me doing whatever I want to it, and when it comes out it can be decrypted again.

The closest analogy (I think you are trying to get to this) is that one might be able to make a series of operations that would execute an encrypted program. The problem is that this would result in encrypted output.
I agree with you that it's totally unfair that ~30% are taken from you, but not from your neighbor. This is why we need to abolish regulations and taxes.
To underscore your point, there was recently a speed test[1] conducted to compare the Moto E (~vanilla android, 120$ unlocked) vs Samsung Galaxy S5 (TouchWiz, ~700$ unlocked) in user tests (think Google+ load times, not MIPS). The Moto E was faster, despite having roughly 1/3rd the hardware metrics.

Hardware vendors and carriers are to blame for a lot of this UX disaster (e.g., including their own superfluous app, causing the Intents Dialog confusion on day 1 rather than popping up after you choose to install a new app for X). Is Google to blame for not doing a better job of controlling fragmentation? In my opinion, in the past, no. Android might not have taken off without the freedom given to manufactures/carriers. In the future, Google DOES need to wrangle this crapware problem (I think of it as crap icing on a delicious vanilla cake). Google is doing exactly this with Android Silver [2].

Finally, what does Android do wrong? Well, just look at CyanogenMOD's features to see what Android is lacking: privacy and app permissions, data limiting (ads), firewalls, etc.

The announcement in Feb 2011 was that IANA had allocated the last IPv4 address blocks from the planned allocations. IANA (ICANN) and the RIRs then worked to recover some blocks of unused IPv4 addresses. These became the "recovered IPv4 pool" and the agreement was that allocations from this pool would begin once one of the RIRs reached the last /9 of their available IPv4 address space.

LACNIC hit that mark and triggered ICANN's policy to start allocating out of this recovered address space pool. The NRO has an announcement up about this, too:

http://www.nro.net/news/iana-allocates-recovered-ipv4-addres...

Basically, after this recovered pool of IPv4 addresses is allocated by IANA, there aren't any more IPv4 addresses to give out.
Maybe not faster than I'd think :) I work in the field as well. Maybe even with your father!

So is it safe to assume anyone involved in vandalizing this office will lose their license? Or is the standard of "Not a Hooligan" too high for a London Cabby?
Isn't it standard for 4G to give out IPv6? If everyone switched, we'd all have IPv6.
I remember a few years ago when I didn’t know MetaFiler, I often left MetaFilter pretty quickly when it showed up in search results because it looks like one of these spammy link aggregator websites. (I had the same initial hurdle with StackOverflow because I thought it was similar to Yahoo Answers). Maybe this is a common behavior among new visitors and Google lowered some bounce rate threshold?

My favourite 'did you know' factoid:

'there are 10 times more bacterial cells in your body than human cells...'

http://www.scientificamerican.com/article/strange-but-true-h...

(Article explains: bacteria have smaller cells than our own and that they would fit inside a 1/2 gallon jug. Note to those outside of the U.S.A., Burma and Liberia: 1/2 Gallon = just under two litres).
No, it's standard UK practice, especially for the first 2 years after splenectomy. It does seem to vary around the world though.

> because I don’t really know the difference between my choices. I have no real idea what the tradeoffs are in picking one app over the other. nd if the difference is so negligible, why do they even offer both.

It's clear he's referring to the apps themselves, and he views the choice iteself as intrinsically worthless. So yeah, he completely missed the point.
And again, the article doesn't speak clearly to handwashing specifically. It would seem that ideally, if someone believes in this kind of thing, the appropriate behavior when faced with handling something likely loaded with bad bacteria (which cleaning after defecation would include) would be to subsequently clean your hands with soap and hot water, and then reapply the N. eutropha.
I had some negative experiences during a recent conference in Berlin and was threatened and insulted more than once in Warsaw, not to mention constant online bullying for being vocal about women in tech.

What gives you the impression this is US? Seems straightforward to me that bemmu talks about seeing them in China and purchasing one to ship from there on his return home to Japan.
I'm not an expert, but I think this is the difference: FHE uses known (unencrypted) operations to transform unknown (encrypted) data. It's true the program is data, but to run it you'd have to decrypt it. With FHE the operations are supplied from outside the ciphertext.

I will tell you my reason to own a home, large at that, even though I am single. I have seen friends/coworkers have to move after leases were not renewed. I have seen friends/coworkers lose put up with stuff about their rentals I would not tolerate as an owner. Sure it go fixed, but damn. I have also seen them held hostage to rising rents just to renew.

Yeah it can be more expensive at times, more work definitely, but I never have to worry about someone else deciding they don't want me living here.

Correction.

A simple way to fix this: price energy more cheaply during off times.
If you want something more challenging than a unicycle, you should try the BC wheel (the name comes from the stone wheel that characters in the popular comic strip ride). It's basically a non motorized version of what they describe in the article. Just a free-spinning wheel with metal plates you stand in. The other name it goes by is an "impossible wheel". They are quite difficult to ride - but some can ride them and do tricks similar to skateboarding. Here's one of the best guys at riding them:

"So anybody who happens to have a compromised immune system gets to fight your personalised microbes, perhaps fatally? How very ... Darwinian ... of you."

What a sadly unscientific and ignorant answer.

There are literally MILLIONS of types of bacteria. We REQUIRE millions of bacteria to simply exist and live as human beings.

Not all bacteria is evil and will kill you. Most won't! In fact, if you kill all of your personal awesome bacteria, the harmful stuff can move in because you don't have any anymore. (Well if you "killed all of your own bacteria", you'd very likely be dead as well...)

You get to fight my bacteria, and every humans bacteria, every day of your life. It's as normal as breathing air and eating food. Your mother colonizes you with bacteria at birth and through feeding. Our foods help us build immunities. Our friends and being outside and playing and working and everything we do exposes us to bacteria. Being exposed to bacteria isn't evil or wrong. Being weak to bacterial exposure is like being weak to sunlight-- it is going to dramatically change your life and make you very "abnormal" as a human. That's not our fault.

"Soap and water have saved more lives than any medication, ever."

Proper hygiene has saved those lives, of which soap and water played a role. You put the cart before the horse. HYGIENE saved lives -- soap and water was the mechanism used to achieve hygiene.

" I take daily antibiotics, possibly forever. As a society, we don't just cleanse ourselves for our own well-being, we wash for others."

This article isn't about giving yourself leprosy and then infecting immunocompromised people.

For you to conflate "bad" bacteria with "good" bacteria is ignorant and massively hurtful to the cause of human health.

If you had read the article, you would know that they're supplementing personal flora with Nitrosomonas eutropha.

If Nitrosomonas eutropha can hurt you, you need to be in a bubble and NEVER exposed to any air, or the outside, or dirt, or any other humans.

Herd immunity won't save you from something so common, normal and helpful to humanity. And hurting all of us just to help you, denying us the necessary and amazing flora that makes our lives possible, is selfish and Darwinian in it's own way.

PLEASE respect that bacteria is ESSENTIAL to human life, and managing our own flora is ESSENTIAL to health and thriving. Just because someone wants to be healthy doesn't mean you have a right to accuse them of attacking you. If you're that sensitive, you need to protect yourself with heavy isolation. We're humans, not hermetically sealed robots. We are alive because of bacteria. Period.

sorry for the confusion, I meant just having JSON API server is more minimal and let's you focus on what you actually do; programming your backend...

web frameworks do two things and they're terrible on both. they invent a lot of stuff that you'll likely try to get rid of a later time and it's gonna be too late since your codebase (both frontend and backend) is locked.

but API servers are not like that. they lead you the right (and the more productive) way; composing small libraries into something ideal for you. I'm not sure if it makes sense for people who tend to use frameworks but this works for me great. may be it's my taste
What are you trying to say, exactly? If you're trying to say I'm unfamiliar with feminism, you're wrong. If you're trying to say that feminism isn't an ideology, you've made the poor choice of suggesting an article that uses the word ideologies in the first sentence. If you're trying to snipe at me for using the singular instead of the plural, I shall have to say Q.E.D.

The article itself mentions disliking engaging with moderate voices as an attempt to silence more strident voices, and I get where that's coming from, but some of the people with more strident voices are hate-filled hypocrites.

>In many cases sex work is not a physically or emotionally healthy way to support yourself.

It's a popular opinion, but is it also true? For example sex professions aren't regarded specially in Germany or Sweden, do you think those people are damaging themselves more than any of the more "legitimate" professions?

"the point" is that it's not explained what the consequences are.

If I choose Photos to view images in Messaging, it's not made clear that only Gallery is an option to attach images. If it were, why would anyone choose Photos unless Gallery were somehow flawed? And even if it were, why should you have to use two different apps for each side of what to a user is basically the same operation?
I think I understand your logic here. It does make some sense to use the harassment of a marginalized group as a sort of "tell" that this person is a jerk. I do worry though that it is a bit divisive. A lot of terms like "white male" and "feminist" are very loaded at this point and it feels to me like focusing on specific groups might be a distraction.

For example if I were to say that one of the most arrogant and aggressive people I've known was a self described feminist, it starts to distract from the fact the in reality this person is just a jerk and the feminist part really doesn't have anything to do with that. And any of the hateful gender specific things that person said to other people didn't really have to do with gender issues as much as this person was a total jerk to almost everyone around them.

Your mentioning of this made me check out the graphs again - and I noticed that the graph depicting the size of a down payment was flat. That could only mean one thing: the cost of mortgage insurance (that you will be forced to get if your down payment is lower than 20%) hasn't been included. That's a major cost on low down-payment house purchases.

Intentional or oversight?

The main problem with owning is illiquidity and associated immobility. If you rent you can quickly down shift if you run into trouble. If you own the transaction cost is much higher if you need to move.

The main advantage of owning one's own residence is tax and stability (the flip side of the illiquidity problem). Owner's equivalent rent is not a taxable income. Capital appreciation works in your favor rather than against you when you rent.

In short owning one's own home is both economically and psychologically rewarding if you have long term stable income.
It's amazing how crappy Google results are nowadays. It's all Buzzfeed, Crackle, Mashable, Y!A, WikiHow, eHow, and other garbage results akin to those garbage sites. True information like you'd find on MeFi or some of the more interesting subreddits is now completely buried. There's no other alternatives, either. DuckDuckGo pulls info from less popular sites, and you can find real gems with the right search parameters and hashbangs, but the relevance is not nearly as good as Google's.

I hate to sound like a conspiracy theorist, but I think since we started getting blog/aggregator/quizlet-type sites on the web back in 2009-2011, the quality of search results has gone far, far down the river.

Insulting iOS users? Where do you get that from? Users are users - they have preferences. Some prefer simple and not having to think and some prefer tweaking, suprises and flexibility. If I had said "stupid" iOS users then it would be an insult.

1) No his complaint isn't valid. There are sensible defaults - it only becomes a choice if you install another app that does the same things. In this case Gallery is built in and Google Photos is well Google's. It's not as if every app has a choice on launch. And how exactly are you going to solve the problem of user not having tried one or the other if the user isn't willing to choose one? Throw him a training video for both apps? That sounds even worse.

3) The whole idea of Android is different things for different people. You don't go buy an $699 unlocked phone and use it as a Specifically Optimized for Carrier X phone. It is an unlocked phone designed to run on many carriers as possible. If you need to download an app or two for further customization that's not really a big problem. If it is, then you should've bought something from T-Mobile store that they've customized for you. Wanting it both ways while pretending to be a simpleton user doesn't warrant any discussion.

4) If you need a certain type of lock screen and aren't willing to install one - you should at least look at the phones in a retail store and pick the one with the right lock screen - you can find a lot I bet. Complaining about HTC having confusing lock screen is contradictory to entire point of how Android works.

5) Yeah, sure - but at least it works. What other better options do you have - not having it? That's a worse solution. But yes, Google can do some tightening up on both Copy/Paste and Back button.

So you saw him giving a solution or two that is not "do it iOS way - including don't have a back button"?

Anyway it is important to recognize that you can advocate for gender equal rights without labeling yourself "feminist"—or allowing feminists to force that baggage-laden label upon you against your own will.
