Indeed, when the stats themselves say that between 1% to 14% of the students' mark was determined by the quality of the teacher. One has to wonder if as much time and effort was put into the other 86%. It brings back to mind a similarly minded statement made by my Uni stats professor; make sure you're measuring what you think you're measuring.
Not refrigerated in France either.
I built my own home security system with a Pi as the brains to control camera streaming and do face recognition using OpenCV. Is there a $5 microcontroller that can do all that? Admittedly, it's a big load on the Pi and I'm looking for more powerful single board computers, but that again eliminates $5 MCUs.

I have another Pi working as a drop-in replacement wifi router that routes data via a USB data dongle in case my main internet connection fails. This too may be too much to ask from a $5 MCU.
I knew this already, but when I heard this I was amazed about the eggs being washed in the US. I heard this at a factory which creates egg-sorting-machines (If you want to see awesome egg handling machines: check this [1].)

For the US they created a special module to wash the eggs. In the Netherlands (where I live) this is unheard off. Even at moba they where like WTF :)

Another fun fact is: our eggs are stored outside the fridge in the stores, but in many house holds the eggs are stored in the refrigerator. Most refrigerators have those plastic containers for eggs. Same goes for cheese. Cheese shops store the cheese outside the refrigerator, a lot of households put it in the refrigerator again.

What also strikes me, is the fact that in big parts of europe, having so many chickens on a m2 is not allowed anymore. Instead of laying houses we have free-range systems. It's quite funny technology (like washing eggs) has to solve a problem which didn't exist if we respected nature just a bit more.

In Spain, supermarkets never refrigerate eggs, but they are refrigerated when they are bought by customers.
Are you able to restart the box? If you have KVM access, you could restart it into single user mode (assuming it has not been disabled) and work from there
The point is this: America cares less about the harmful effects of big-corp-produced substances than Europe does.
You're more than likely a decent programmer if you are 3 in half of those.
They'd probably piss off a lot of their developer community if they didn't keep the B in production. There's a huge number of third-party cases and projects that are built around the original connector arrangement.
While defense in depth is never wrong, please be aware that even moderately advanced trojans will simply capture the contents of any form fields in most browsers. Neither your "skipping" technique, nor (partially) using an on-screen-keyboard will help against that.

Using a second factor for authentication provides some extra security, but a well-configured trojan might intercept your logout request, display a fake logout confirmation and store your session data for their botmaster to peruse.

If you need to regularly use untrusted machines (and have access to usb ports or a cd drive), you could bring a hardened browser with you. That should defeat most "Man-in-the-Browser" tricks. Or, even better, a live CD or USB drive. At this point, you should still assume your keyboard and screen to be compromised, but the OS should be safe enough to cautiously use.
Not refrigerated in many parts of Mexico and Latin America either.
Belgium also no refrigeration...
>Very few versions of redsn0w ever installed just SSH

It might have not been redsn0w. Perhaps blackra1n or older, in the iOS 1/2 days, when people installed Cydia side by side with RipDev's Installer. My memory is pretty hazy on that. At any rate, this distinction is mostly a historical footnote at this point.

----------------------------

Anyways, I understand that from a practical perspective, it is impossible to separate Cydia-the-installer-and-store and Cydia-the-code-modification-platform. The former pays the bills, while the latter is the focus of most development effort and center of the jailbreak ecosystem, but not profitable without killing said ecosystem. As such, it probably would be foolish to ask to distinctly separate the app and platform code-wise, as people would aim to compete in the somewhat profitable storefront side- Rock is a good example, as mentioned. Again, I understand how you said <quote>It isn't about "these things are overly coupled", it is "these things are effectively coupled but don't look to be".</quote>

However, if I may: I would suggest you do a branding clarification to clarify, if not separate, the Installer and the Code Modification side of things. For people who aren't as familiar with the scene, it would probably help people understand what you do for the jailbreak community better.

As it is, the naming scheme for the entire ecosystem is pretty confusing. For non-jailbreak-devs, "Cydia" is seen as a platform containing just the APT-frontend installer app and the store; the code modification/extension side of things is less obvious, eclipsed by the installer. This is possibly part of the reason why some people are interested in competitors for Cydia: if it is only seen as a glorified app store storefront and installer, almost anyone can write a replacement, which may be the cause for discontent.

This also has the benefit of clarifying what you're trying to do for Android: the brand "Cydia" is very iOS-centered at this point, and perhaps distinguishing Substrate/etc as something else, more neutral, would be a good idea.
In Turkey, there is no refrigeration either.
I do often see the notion that 'UK is Europe', particularly by American media; and that if something is true in the UK, it's probably true in the rest of Europe, so they often don't bother checking.

Because, sure, we all drive on the left.
https://hakiri.io/ would be a nice tool to add to this list.
You're bypassing a fuse. If you have a crappy powered hub that isn't well regulated you could fry your pi.

In reality, the chance of that happening is very small, and safety here is only in the context of the "safety" of a $35 board. Most hubs won't let you draw more than a couple of amps anyway.
I read five or six of those boxes and then just snorted in disgust. It looks like a great slide to show suckers if you're a productivity consultant. A sane chart would be less verbose, and more depressing. You can code your whole life, and still have struggles with pointers, threads, algorithms, new languages, etc. The majority of coders wouldn't even rank in the first column. I'm not a complete dummy but it took me a year before I could instinctively avoid "off-by-one" errors in loops, and almost ten years just to learn to name variables in a relatively self-documenting fashion.
Sure, but I mean you already need another computer in order to program the pi at which point you already have a computer that can run programs without the pi.
I don't have the Raspberry Pi, mainly because, since I develop embedded software for a living, I have an endless supply of development boards I can hack on at work and am free to take home (during those evenings when I am not so fucking tired of flipping bits that I don't even want to SEE C code!), but:

* A platform with less legacy crap than x86 is wonderful for learning about OS development. I don't know how the Pi fares for this, with Broadcom's chip and all, but if I had the free time to hack an OS in my spare time, not dealing with all the thirty year-old cruft nor shedding a gazillion EUR on a PowerPC system would be ideal.

* There's a legitimate audience of visual artists, musicians or just tinkerers who, as outrageous as might sound to us, long-bearded bit twiddlers, find learning anything other than Python either hopelessly complicated or just not refreshing enough. Aye, their needs would be better served by a 5-dollar MCU, but when an extra twenty dollars buying you the ability to write the code on the same computer that runs it, it's hard to resist. I find myself breaking the sacred oath of not using even one bit more than I need, too, because it's Saturday and my cat wants some attention too and I derive far more pleasure from seeing the jukebox playing music than from knowing the half-done file loader module that will eventually be part of a jukebox eighteen Saturdays from now on is so optimized that even an optimizing compiler would slash its veins in envy.

* The "cheap webserver" part is generally useful when you actually want one to interface something with the outside world over the Interwebs. I find the idea of using HTTP for much of this rather... repugnant, but there are people to whom it isn't, and a VPS isn't of much use if the requirement is to toggle this relay in response to that HTTP request.
In Germany, I haven't seen any refrigerated eggs in supermarkets. But they do have two dates, one after which they should be refrigerated, and one "best before" date. (And like in the UK, they aren't washed).

So it seems that refrigeration isn't necessary for the first two weeks or so of an egg's life time, at least if not washed.
Technically, Tor, but at that point you are just moving your mis-placed trust from one (local WiFi) entity to another (exit node).

On the contrary, I would on the other side claim that allowing the branding to accidentally separate, into MobileSubstrate and Cydia, was actually a key mistake: it reinforces the belief that they are entirely unrelated things that can be thought of and selected separately. I wish I could go back in time and be more clear with the branding as always having said "Cydia Platform" and "Cydia Substrate" whenever possible, so people see all the pieces as a unified concept, as then I wouldn't run into problems where people think "well, I'll just compete with this profitable thing I see that is defined easily with this word people talk about". I actually only started being really consistent and forceful about Cydia as a platform in the last year, when I started zooming out and putting the puzzle together better. (Really, Substrate only doesn't ship together with the GUI for ancient political reasons.)
"Too slow"? Thats a very consumer-centric point of view. Compiling onboard is quite sufficient for most small projects, and really .. its a matter of patience, but for sure its quite usable. For those more used to the fat-IDE approach, where everything is done for you at a few clicks, its certainly not interesting .. but if you want to get really familiar with software development, doing things onboard the rPi can be a very effective way to develop. The so-called limitations of the device can also work in your favour: write smaller, tighter, leaner modules, and you don't have to wait so long in between compiles.

Not to mention that there are plenty of ways to use the rPi that don't require compiling. I myself use an onboard Lua environment, which just plain rocks .. ssh in, open up vim, edit Lua .. run in another terminal. Quite a comfortable environment, and I hardly even care that its on a 'small/slow CPU' (after all, I lost interest in the speed race decades ago. Those of us who grew up building the Linux kernel on MHz-class machines don't feel your pain.)
Thanks. I understand your point and was not disputing it—only the tone, which violated the HN guidelines. Upvotes are not a reliable index to this. A lot of uncivil comments get heavily upvoted, unfortunately.

In some contexts, rough-and-tumble language is just fine and makes things more vigorous. Empirically, HN isn't one of those. Its system is too fragile. So if we want any high-quality discourse, we have to protect it. It's not an ethical injunction so much as a practical tradeoff.
IMO we all have Apple and Cingular to thank for that. Palm and Microsoft were more than happy to allow telcos to force customers to pay extra fees to unlock Wi-Fi and to pay for insane, complicated data plans; so much so that Apple's demands basically had Verizon telling Steve Jobs to go fuck himself. It wasn't until the success of the iPhone that the ridiculous policies and prices of phone service started to drop.
For a good bit, I worked 4 hour days (plus probably an hour of planning time): but I didn't go to work till after 5, and I spent all 4 hours on the machine, coding and testing. It was one of the most productive periods of my career.

In the UK I believe a good amount of people do keep eggs in the fridge when they get them home from the supermarket. Like yours, our fridges have the plastic containers for eggs.
But people still store them in the fridge after they get back home!
In this scenario, if I login to my own server, if I control the login on the remote end, I set it up to support one time passwords. It would be nice if this would be something that can be set up by default for credentials.

Maybe this should be a feature request to the web-app devs.?
I'd really like to know the incidence of salmonella poisoning per capita, normalised by the number of fresh eggs sold, to compare how these policies actually affect the thing we're concerned about.

NCLB tried to fix those "ineffectual, corrupt money pits" by giving enormous, overriding importance to a small set of easily gamed statistics.

Creating a single performance metric that people Must Meet Or Else is an exceedingly naive approach to performance problems. It creates perverse incentives that reward cheating and short-term hacks over sustainable long-term solutions, and it doesn't actually do anything to help solve the problem at all.

I'm not, to be clear, saying that trying to use statistics as a tool to solve problems in education is a bad idea, but laws like NCLB are comparable to non-technical managers trying to measure software dev performance with metrics like "lines of code produced" or "number of bug tickets closed". (And I don't think I have to explain to anyone here why that's a bad idea.)

We refrigerate them in Belgium as well. What a shit article.
From the article, it looks like we're talking about two very different systems. Specifically, [1] refrigeration, [2] free-range versus laying houses and [2] mandatory vaccinations. You would likely need data from a range of countries to even begin to see which policies are most effective by data analysis.
Does it need to be an OSS solution as long as the data can be exported at will into a standards compliant format?

I think some supermarkets fridge their eggs, some don't here in The Netherlands. However, I have never seen anyone not fridge their eggs at home. In fact, it seems crazy gross to me to keep eggs outside of the fridge at room temperature. I wouldn't want to eat an egg that wasn't stored "properly" (i.e., our definition of properly). This is probably entirely irrational, but there it is.

Interestingly, the 'official' Dutch storage advice for eggs [1] states they are to be kept in the fridge, because it reduces the risk of salmonella and makes sure they dry out less quickly.

Oh look, it's another American who thinks Europe is a single cultural entity.

I'm European and I've never seen an unrefrigerated egg in my life.
Similar in New Zealand: refrigerated at home, not in the supermarket.
In Norway we refrigerate them. And often eat them months after expiration date.
My colleague uses it to run a python script to periodically download and store virtual currency prices. As I understand it, it is useful if you want to download stuff from the internet in certain time intervals.
Just a note: cheese shops store hard unsliced cheese outside the refrigerator. Sliced and soft cheese is refrigerated pretty much everywhere.

(and I prefer to think about the chicken thing more as respect for other sentients, not "nature". But that's just a nitpick).

EDIT: oh, and back in Poland people also store bought eggs in the refrigerator.

EDIT: also, after reading contradictory statements from Belgians: by Netherlands I mean Noord-Holland, by Poland I mean, um, Warsaw. Though I think it's by regulation in Poland.
I am running a web server on mine using PipaOS and Lighttpd, but I rewrote my database system to SQLite instead of MySQL. Granted, this meant I had to reimplement some stored procedures that I had written in PHP instead (for parent/child page traversal and navigation building) but it returns pages much faster. I know that reading from a file all the time is likely to harm the attached USB drive's read count, but I'm not getting many hits!

I intend to rewrite the system using C++ instead (using an old Mongoose C++ web server edition) and load the SQLite database into SQLite :memory: (without a disk backup) instead, which means that it'll return pages much faster; it'll only touch the "disk" database on program startup.

I see from the others that they have put PHP and MySQL and a host of other things on theirs but for simple sites, that is probably somewhat overkill.

I also use mine as an SSH gateway.
No refrigeration of eggs here in Switzerland.

"Belgium also no refrigeration..."

Insert joke about Belgian unity here.
I have one and it has changed my life for the better. I now think of the time before and after smartwatch, much like it was when getting a smartphone. The utility just has much more impact than I could imagine.

The general attitude on HN toward smartwatches seems very negative but this is not reflected on other tech sites I visit regularly where it's mostly positive.
No I don't think we can worry about that. The warning that the accounts would be deleted were repeated and well in advance.
Lojban is basically what you describe, but you have to learn a few thousand words to even be able to start communicating in it. And then you are restricted to those few thousand made up words, as opposed to the vast number of concepts that have been named in English or other languages.

It would be cool if we could take the existing English vocabulary but with Lojban (or whatever language) grammar. People who know English would be able to learn the language much faster. People who don't would still benefit somewhat by learning some English when learning it.
I read it and thought that must be written by an academic. Searched for the "about" page and wasn't disappointed. So as a fair warning for non-academic programmers: Read it with a grain of salt. That being said, I don't know how well the matrix applies to academic programmers.
As another fan of GitLab: gosh yes, I can't recommend it enough. I also use ownCloud for my personal info management and file syncing. The only thing I don't run myself is email, which I pay Fastmail to do, because dealing with all the required things to have a decent reputation score so I don't end up in a spam box is too painful.
Yes, because I want to keep the same software and feature set if at all possible.
Counter anecdote: I am dutch and never keep my eggs in the fridge.
Some customers.
I disagree, the technology is necessary but not sufficient. To compete as a distributor of mass consumer goods, you need a distribution infrastructure (warehouses, trucks, servers and the logistics operation to run them). The technology that makes up trucks, warehouses and servers may be commoditized, but the ability to own and operate hundreds of millions of dollars worth of them, with enough profit to keep growing the fleet every year - that's a very real barrier to entry because customers like getting their purchases the next day or even the same day, and doing that consistently for many customers requires that kind of a fleet.

On top of that, you need a way to reach customers online. The brand is sticky enough that many people start their book search directly on Amazon. To get a chance to compete for that search (presumably on Google) you'll need to hope that they find the price outrageous enough to overcome the promise of a convenient and reliable next-day delivery, pre-configured shipping and billing, etc.

Lastly Amazon is working hard to move the battle away from the open web: once a customer has a Kindle, the bar is even higher to compete for their future purchases.
Oh, damn. I guess I missed that memo from the Council of Things All Europeans Must Do. Does this mean I'm not a proper european?

A Middle-School Cheating Scandal Raises Questions About the Effectiveness of Schools

It appears that there was nothing teachers could do to raise students to the level of standardize tests. With schools that are unable to perform their education task, one wonders why we have them in the first place.

One potential solution to these problems is to aggressively segment students into winning and loosing groups based on academic performance. Although doing so has often been met with accusation of racism.
I'm an Austrian living in Austria, and I used to put my eggs in the fridge. Then I stopped doing that because my spouse thinks they absorb the smell of the fridge and now I don't.

The store I usually buy my eggs from doesn't store them in a fridge. Other stores do.

Most eggs I buy at the supermarket don't seem to be washed or sanitized.
I'm Danish. I've also worked in something like 5 different supermarkets and naturally shopped in many, many more. I have _never_ seen a supermarket that doesn't refrigerate them. Which supermarkets don't?
Also Danish eggs aren't washed, they are however salmonella free.
