The title seems very misleading, his friends list hasn't actually been discovered, but rather a method that could discover parts of it.

Question for the arm chair lawyers: If he published said friends list could the FB denial of a vulnerability be construed as evidence that he didn't hack them as the functionality is intended and authorized?
I've never seen a clustered filesystem that was friendly or simple enough for the small office / home use case. With ZFS I pile a bunch of disks in a server, run samba on it, and there you go. Still, best of luck if you try it.
I'd say HN is actually very mixed. See this discussion as an example where the only three comments are downvoted: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7831778

There seem to be anarcho-capitalist, social-green-leftist, pro-state surveillance, anti-state surveillance, pro-(progressive-)tax people, voluntarists, etc.

I am sometimes offended or even horrified by some of the views expressed (like the surveillance apologists, or drone-war fascists), but overall I think HN diversity is a good thing. Only group bias is towards tech.

To paraphrase the article, Ken Regan thinks that someone's chess skill improving too fast is conclusive proof that they are cheating.

I'm not sure this is really a true analogy to the examples of catching users of performance enhancing drugs; it would be more like saying 'your time on the track has improved by too much for us to believe, so you must have cheated, and therefore you are disqualified'.

Perhaps it would be better to use his software to target people for higher scrutiny, rather than as categorical proof of cheating. Cheaters, however, could just make sure that they always cheat, and ratchet up the search depth at a rate below the maximum permissible improvement rate.

Automatic type casting remains popular because it reduces the syntactic and cognitive overhead. I'm suggesting that a better solution would be to retain explicit casting, but minimise the overheads.

So, to take things a step further, lets use, say, the $ operator for casting. Then we have:

>>> x = 1
>>> y = "2"
>>> print($x + y)
3
>>> print(x + $y)
"12"
>>> print($x + $y)
CastError: ...

As long as the detectors don't directly detect cheating, but instead improvement at a rate that is too high (like in the article), then if you limit your rate of improvement to a rate and distribution similar to human improvement, it is unlikely that any future program will be able to detect this.

Detecting performance enhancement solely by looking at performance is a losing battle for the detecting side.

Admittedly for $200 you aren't going to be getting anything fancy, but you'll certainly get something that gets the job done. Since this was my first RC project I went with a $23 radio system, which for basic control is fine. You can get a decent frame for $60, I went with a wooden one since it's pretty sturdy and unlike something like carbon fibre, if you crash you only have to go to a DIY store for replacements. The rest of the parts added up to $120 and were from HobbyKing. At the moment I have mine carrying a Mobius camera which is great, but it could easily carry a GoPro too. I have a blog post about it if you want more detail:

I'd say more like "I'm not smart enough to run a high-performance NAS". If you follow the tutorials ZFS is the friendliest raidlike system I've ever used, and the most tolerant of sysadmin mistakes (which isn't to say you can't destroy all your data, but that's true of any filesystem). But sure, if you need particular IOPS numbers then you should probably hire a professional or buy a prebuilt NAS system that provides those guarantees. Or be prepared to benchmark and experiment until you get it right.

Yep, I was pretty disappointed. I expected to learn more on the startup scene in Berlin, but the introduction and first two paragraphs are about him.

As long as you have room to connect one extra drive there's no "degrading" - add new disk, zfs replace, remove old disk, repeat. I've done this and it worked, and I've had the new disk fail partway through and not had to spend any time resilvering, so I don't think there's any degrading. (In any case you're certainly in no worse a situation than you would be if you had a single-drive failure. If you're worried about having a second drive fail while you're replacing a disk after a failure, use raidz2).

Obviously if you only have 4 drive slots and have to remove a disk to replace it then you're going to have less redundancy while you're in the process of doing the replacement.
Okay, I can understand you feel passionately about it, but I'm not commenting on the validity of the American legal system's actions.

The problem here is Wittgenstein in nature - not some flaw in Facebooks security but a misunderstanding of the word "privacy".

Surely at some point we need to revisit the word "privacy". The expectation that one can keep secret our links to people when posting those links onto any "public" forum must surely be disabused in our brave new world - our expectations do not fit the economics of reality anymore.

The diff idea is interesting as a value add, especially - I project - for per-diff discussion or so.

You can replace the 4x3TB drives with 4x4TB drives for more space. But you can't replace the 4x3TB drives with 3x4TB drives or 2x6TB drives. If you started with two mirrored pairs and want to change to a raidz, you can't without destroying the pool. You can upgrade disks and add more disks, but you can't remove disks without replacing them.

A comment by one of the readers on the guardian website:

"Thats nothing, Michael Knight had a self driving car years before Google."
People have been writing about variations on the so-called "mutual friends vulnerability" for years and years now. Facebook's response has always been the same. You can control what people see on your own profile, but you cannot control what people see on your friends' profiles. Just as if you write on your friend's wall, revealing the fact that you are friends with that person, simply being friends with that person will also reveal to people who can see that friend's profile that the two of you are connected. The name of the setting is "Who can see my friend list", not "Who can see me on my friends' friend list", nor is it "Conceal all links to my profile from my friends' profiles."
It is beyond me why Facebook would not consider this a privacy issue, if not a bug.

I just can't imagine they intended to allow strangers to view the mutual friends of anyone, so the person that responded to this bug report probably didn't understand it, or is clueless, because the way this feature should work is obvious.

Just allow to view the mutual friends between yourself and your friends.
I'm curious how easy is it to write software to control a multirotor you built yourself. One of the big appeals of the AR drone was a fairly easy to use Linux SDK.

I think HN is a little homogeneous in terms of political views, but not completely so, so there will always be dissenting opinions on any issue. But it also doesn't mean most are "libertarian" or "liberal". I think most of the HN community thinks beyond those labels, and instead support policies that "just make sense", regardless of where they are on the political spectrum.

So that means generally anti-surveillance (right-wing libertarian? progressive liberal?), pro-green energy (I guess that's left-wing?), pro-some social programs, but also against other wasteful ones.

The HN community is generally pretty smart, and thinks in terms that aren't as black and white like "right-wing" or "left-wing". And since it's a heavily Internet-involved community, it does tend to be a little more pro-freedom than pro-regulations (which is how the Internet has worked for the most part).

are you sure you even get Plan 9? the point is to avoid bloatmonsters like LO and most browsers, with smaller alternatives that work well with the team of the core utilities.

drivers are a given though. i'm not sure what their philosophy on virtualization is though.
However, your js files would get really big, and download latency could actually be a performance drop.
Btw, I always considered Plan 9's mascot to be middle-aged and with creepy mustache. Kind of like Larry Wall.

I imagine this mascot reflects the developer demographic, but compared to common mascots it's a bit raw.
The problem with the open-office / everybody in their own room / some mixture articles and proponents of various solutions is that they all seem to ignore the effect of calcification.
It may be the case that every change is in keeping with the guidelines, but it's certainly not the case that the guidelines are applied consistently. Looking at stories where the submitter added some useful, non-linkbaity detail that wasn't in the original title, it seems entirely arbitrary whether that detail will be left in place or cut from the title. And belittling your users' experience like that ("sporadic attention"?) will make you few friends.

Better policy a): Don't change the titles users submit. Trust the community to flag linkbait titles.

Better policy b): Don't allow users to submit a title. Automatically scrape the title from the linked page. Have moderators change the titles when they're unhelpful or misleading (this is much less likely to annoy users than the current system, because the moderator wouldn't be replacing the submitter's title, it would be the HN system replacing another part of the HN system).

edit: Suggest a better title rather than suggest a better policy? How is one supposed to suggest a better title? There is no form for that, and it's not something to clutter the comments with.

>>misunderstanding of the word "privacy".

What? Facebook sold something as private but its not.

>> The expectation that one can keep secret our links to people when posting those links onto any "public" forum

Facebook told me it was private...
It does reveal to the person you have mutual friends with, who those mutual friends are, but I just can't see an obvious reason why this additional information should be broadcasted to everyone, even persons that are strangers to you and the person you share part of your friendslist with.

Edit: To clarify my standpoint I tested this on a friend of mine (person A), that hides his friendslist from everyone but his closest friends.

It just happens that I also befriended the persons best friend (person B), and therefore I tried to get the mutual friends between person A and B. What I received were 38 mutual friends, even though I can only see one mutual friend between myself person A.

That is clearly information that person A didn't intend to share with me, therefore there has to be a bug or stupidity on Facebooks side involved to uncover this information to me.
This article says nothing about the Berlin startup scene at all (except for a few vague, positive phrases). If you expect a description worthy of the word "journey", you'll be disappointed. It's mostly a self-congratulatory piece written by someone who apparently thinks that startups are some sort of hipster/fashion movement.

Python example with str and int are IMHO much better. They require only little more typing, but are very readable and explicit.
That's basically what it is, and maybe also a mindset of believing you matter as your own person, rather than just a means to and ends. Having at least some selfishness of that sort (at least when living in a culture designed for it - maybe things are different in more group-oriented cultures) is really important for things like being confident, being able to say no to others' requests, and not getting depressed.
There's been quite a lot of new progress - implementations for new languages in particular. Last time I checked there was no backend for C.

Microsoft Surface Pro 3 Detail Internal walkthrough [video]
My experience with Berlin is 1) plenty of enthusiastic people and startups, 2) not enough funding to go around, 3) still some weird hiring practices in place. I have several decades of development+startup experience, and while interviewing for a CTO spot recently, I was asked in all seriousness what my GPA was. I could only guess, I hadn't thought about it in many years. The interviewer gravely informed me that most of their hires were in the "top 5%" of their graduating classes. This was a company that was allegedly, by their advertisements and verbal communications, looking for a tech cofounder/CTO.

I read recently online that Berlin is welcoming superstar American techies with open arms, which, of course, would be true of pretty much any startup community. I'm not surprised that they rolled out the red carpet for the author, but I don't think that ordinary non-German devs should expect the same or even similar treatment.

English-only speakers will find that one can get by just fine in Berlin without German. It's nice if you have a bit of it to facilitate communication with non-university-educated people, but it's just a nice-to-have. My experience is that people in the startup world here are incredibly fluent in English.

I love Berlin and look forward to returning, but the hype is pretty over-the-top. It's a good scene, but I don't think it's a great scene. Certainly nothing like SV or NYC. My purely subjective impression is that it's something more along the lines of a Toronto or perhaps a Boulder or an Austin.
The equipment used to communicate with the satellites is usually heavily regulated. For example in India you can't bring in items that communicate via a Satellite without a permit.

In Kenya before they changed the law, VSAT terminals were heavily regulated. They had equipment that could detect if you had an unauthorized installation and you could get under heavy fines.

Bottom line you can't regulate whether you can or can't get the signal, but you can regulate the domestic equipment required to communicate.
Is that compared to the general population overall, or a subset? It might be more informative to look at the subset that actually starts down the road of making discoveries in mathematics - maybe just people who attempt bachelors' degrees in math?
