Op here...

I started this in 2012, and thought I'd submit it here; it's proven useful to many people in those 2 years, and gets used by the Xrdp/X11rdp author(s) to build their test releases.

It runs on Debian-based distributions. Someone has recently written a spin-off version for Red Hat-based distros, which can be seen at https://github.com/metalefty/X11RDP-RH-Matic

I'm also blatantly hoping for more pull requests in the future. ;)

Lastly, there's a Devel branch on Github which will soon be pushed to master and tagged as the 3.11 release, which contains additions that make this work on the Raspberry Pi and other small devices like it running a Debian-ish distribution, as well as improving the method by which the xrdp Debian package is produced.
It's a word search. There are 11 countries. Find them all.
Lots of non state residents buy:
purchases by out of state visitors currently represent about 44 percent of metro area retail sales and about 90
percent of retail sales in heavily visited mountain communities.

So nearby state might want to stop losing money and make it legal also.
Ah yes, and I remember it not being so much the MP but the herbs needed in conjunction to cast. Can't make anything simple. :)

Actually it's a little known fact that Buffet built a company too. Yes He did invest in other publicly traded companies, and he's also acquired quite a few too.

You can think of those as acquisitions. It's sort of a lesser known fact that he made the majority of his money in insurance. Before anyone else thought of it, Buffett developed a Homeostatic operation that collected insurance premiums and then invested that float in other companies who had a history of spinning off large amounts of free cash flow. He'd suck off that free cash flow and buy up more companies. All while keeping a larger and larger amount of free cash on hand in the event that he had to pay out any large claims.

This is all easier said than done because if you price your premiums wrong you can blow up the whole business. He priced his premiums conservatively and sold odd insurance in the back of newspapers and trade magazines, covering things and making policies that no one else dare take on.

There's a lot more gun slinging and pivoting in the Buffett story than you'd read about today. He raised cash manually from groups of Doctors in the 60's for his first investor partnership (he was 26). It was no different than a 26 year old kid going out today and raising cash for a startup. And incidentally, he delivered. There's one story in the excellent Alice Schroeder bio about him (http://goo.gl/nZGrIX) He was around 30 years old living in suburban Omaha. One afternoon he casually asks his next door neighbor if he's ever thought about how he'll pay for his children's college then goes into a sales pitch asking him for $10,000 (in the 60's). The neighbor declined. Can you imagine? He had hustle, and street smarts, and swagger. That's a businessman. In fact he's one of the best businessmen. Even Gates would tell you that.
I like this one because it is easier to get an idea of what the layout of the neural network itself is, and gives more control.

Off the topic of neural networks in javascript but on the topic of neural networks in general, the readme links a cool paper on applying convolutional neural networks to old games.

Strongloop has http://loopback.io which has been interesting to work with. Looking to free up some time to investigate a little further!
Yea, but demand isn't all created equal right? I'm trying to capture more than raw demand - unless we're just defining terms differently (which I suspect)
I'm surprised at how polarized the usage percentages are. Near 50% are using between 1-5 times a month and a touch over 20% are using 26-31 times per month (daily). It sounds like people are either using casually or they throw all their chips in (not that I blame them).

Hopefully Wisconsin can join the club in the next decade.
All right, wishing you happy birthday got downmodded too.

I'd just like to point out I'm for legalizing marijuana, I've signed a petition in support of net neutrality and I'm against killing babies.

Let's see how this one goes.
I would find it interesting why this post was downvoted. What's wrong about voicing the opinion that this is no way to treat allies?
My wife's grandfather designed buildings like that in the 1960s for the Ministry of Defence in the UK. They had special wall and ceiling coverings, artificial floors and were lined with RF shielding even back then. They had an immense list of engineering checks that had to be done right down to light transmission.

One of the really cool things is they had developed a method of determining what keys were pressed on a typewriter by the sound back then (these were IBM ones so this wasn't hard) and had to design ways for the sound to be dampened enough to not reveal it outside of the communications rooms. Even things like heating pipes were carefully dampened.
I have used it in suburbs and I have had totally mixed experiences. Off course Ubwe is better than the status quo cab and mass transit you mentioned. But unless you do not own a car (for whatever reason), odds are that Uber really can't expand into that niche (as largely as was proposed). The only time my friends in the suburbs use Uber is to get between points if they have had a drink (cited in the article).

To your point and the article's point, perhaps Uber can displace the older and smaller transportation infrastructures but you still face the issue of physical space. I can move more people per hour, per mile of track on a train than by car. Roads can only be built so wide and long in a given area -- NYC for example. I have been stuck in Uber plenty of times racking a $100+ charge cause of gridlock -- nothing can be done but add roads but we can't pave water. Other modes like trains can go above, on and below ground and coexist with other systems and you can run them more often and with more cars.

After thinking more about the point of auto ownership, I think the $9k/annum cost of having a car is pretty steep. My dad who is religious about logging mileage and tracking his car's health from engine to windshield wipers likely would agree too. Car makers can and are reducing the cost curve and price points of their offerings. Furthermore, I am sure they're focused on the on-going safety and integrity of their product given the Toyota and GM recalls. If this is $9k, that for sure will be coming down.

If it's truly that cumbersome to maintain a car, what about Uber's cars? Are drivers going to be spending large sums to maintain their vehicles (that likely see more wear and tear given they are cabs)? Who eats those costs... Uber? If not, do they need to pay higher wages or concede some ground to these livery companies to help maintain their fleet?

Just something for us to all noodle about-- nothing like good discussion
Never are they claiming it is not a luxury good. Why are you being so dismissive of them? It's like saying Tesla can't save the world because they're making $80k cars, it's short sighted.
"Zealotry" is an unnecessarily inflammatory term. And do you really believe that every business owner has a responsibility to run his business as successfully as possible, even if it violates his own conscience? And do you believe that a former business owner should accept responsibility for the actions of the buyer after selling the business?

edit: I do definitely agree with you that a story about the decline of the two businesses would have been much more interesting. And a story of the mini-comeback, in the case of Little Caesar's.
You are aware that you can record audio and send it later?
To get the number of characters in a string, call countElements(string). To generate a random character, your best bet (IMO, someone else may have a more elegant solution) is to have an array (or dictionary) or characters and use a random number generator to select a character from the structure.
The machine worked! We boiled water for a few cups of coffee.

The write up is coming. Eventually.
Completely depends on the company. Don't go jeans and t-shirt, but for most startup/tech companies suit and tie is too far the other direction.

Long-sleeve button-down and slacks probably works in most cases, but again for startups/tech companies you probably want them to be more cool than corporate. No pleated khakis or high-starch polyester shirts.

It shouldn't really matter that much since the whole reason developers don't dress up to work is because it's not the dress that matters, it's the work. In reality it matters anyway, at least at many companies. Try to find photos of their team at work on their website, dress a bit nicer than that.
The war on drugs has caused immeasurable harm.

http://www.irinnews.org/in-depth/100080/114/war-on-drugs-col...

Making drugs legal means we can treat the medical harms; spend time and money tackling the actually nasty things in the supply chain (two friends sharing a lump of cannabis = fine; a trafficked worker being forced to work in an illegal squat cannabis factory = probably bad).
I'm still not convinced there isn't a generational difference. I work part time with students and have heard "hype" as a positive adjective ie, "This thing is so hype". I also think the negative connotation people are mentioning comes from the term "over-hyped" which is closer to your second definition.
Wow. I'd think that transporting any kind of marijuana across state lines as a seriously illegal act. If so it strikes me as incredibly risky and ill advised. Why would so many people risk so much for pot?
I believe Apple says to use countElements(string) instead of string.count
I think it's a style that you ultimately shoot yourself in the foot the first five times you attempt it, but eventually you end up in a better place for it.

Overall, I feel that the idea of looking at Events as Streams is a step in the right direction and having well composed functions is a key piece of making that dream a reality.
"The demand for marijuana by Colorado adult residents is estimated to be 121.4 metric tons in 2014"

This made me curious and I found this page on wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spacecraft_Docking_and_Berthing...

Totally fascinating subject. It wasn't clear to me if Dragon 2 is going to use the APAS-95 connector (what the Shuttle used), or the newer NDS connector.

It also made me think.. was there some kind of adapter used for Apollo missions after Apollo 13 for the CO2 scrubbers? Or was the hack the "official way" of getting around problem?
If you don't think this guy has the skill of a senior developer, you're either reading hacker news to much or haven't done any interviewing at all.

You're right about your criticism of course, his memory game implementation is crap in many, many ways. But in the grand scheme of things, it's details. Most developers in the real world wouldn't be able at all to put it together in javascript in only two days (i've worked with people who wouldn't have been able to do it in two months). Hell, a large minority of developers can't solve the FizzBuzz test so disqualifying this guy for using to many dependencies and requiring sudo is silly.
Ask HN: Pressure points on company
Hello great people at HN, I am new at this of entrepreneurship, so let me explain the difficulty I'm in front of in this moment.

Me and my partner are web developers (I'm more of back-end and he's more of front-end). When we quit our jobs we started looking for clients and we found two, the 1st client was ok, and the 2nd one, offered us a lousy partnership with his actual social media company, so when he gets a client that needs a website he'd outsource our services. We are aware he adds his profit as an overhead of the price, and this is where we are starting to have problems.

We understand that he needs to add his profit -we would do that too if we were in his position- but that doesn't give you much flexibility for you as developer to raise prices, because then the price gets way too high for the client. In some cases, he'd say "please lower the price a bit, he's a friend of my partners". I know if I tell him to not do that, he'll stop, however it's obvious that his partners will push him (his partners at the social media company are greedy) and then he'll have a lot of pressure over him.

How can I make this a situation where everybody wins?
Yeah, likely implemented in a hurry, but Faraday cages don't solve all. Remember that wire is a thing. Turning up the music and speaking quietly in a small group may be lo-tech, but it works. You'll need a widely spaced microphone array with more microphones than there are loudspeakers at the very least to separate the music from the speech. That's easier to do when you don't have to worry about wiring, but it's still hard.
No. On Android only System Apps have permissions to place a call to 911 or other Emergency Numbers (112 etc). We can definitely dial the emergency number, 911 in North America, for the user (they still need to unlock the phone to press the "Call Button" unfortunately.
Those are on pretty much every website that spends any time talking about stocks.
What's also interesting is that you would expect that such extreme polarization would show equally extreme negative effects, if they exist, since it means you have a large population of users exposed to high doses where negative effects should be most obvious.

(Imagine that it takes 10 times per month to put someone at risk of going crazy, robbing or killing people, torching houses, etc. If the distribution of use was a straight line down to just a few % of the heaviest users reaching 10 times per month, you wouldn't necessarily see much of an increase in population numbers. But with a crazy distribution like that, it's >20% of users who would be exhibiting side effects!)
I wouldn't call 4-5 times a month "very casual" -- that's every weekend.
Marijuana is an enormous growing market. Legalization will take hold over the next 10 years and the market will grow 100x what it is now. This is a golden opportunity for entrepreneurs.
I don't see why this is relevant. You can proxy it to another port?
Read some of the articles about other years, as well. They are ALWAYS a fascinating read.
I think that answer is easy: $$$. A lot of drugs cross state and country lines, so the fact that it's crossing the border of Colorado surely was expected.

I agree that Presidents age over the course of their term.

But there are many differences between being Potus and the head of Microsoft.

President is a short term job (in general) and it is entered into later in life after I would guess a less stressful (than being President that is) life.

Gates started Microsoft when young and grew into the job over time. Not to mention that being the captain of that ship is greatly different (in terms of the "masters" that you serve) than being a politician.

Not having done either it's hard to really decide what the real differences are. But my guess is that Gates obviously had a tremendous amount of support from people hand picked over the years to carry out his wishes and way more latitude to do what he wanted which a President doesn't have. I think that factor alone is good with reducing stress of a job. (Being more in charge of your destiny, being more in control).

Also although I don't have photos to show I do remember there was a demarcation point where he started to just "look older". That didn't seem to coincide with just normal aging.

Ballmer of course doesn't look bad for his age. (Not that that proves my point but I will point that out.)
Expect the big ax to fall at Microsoft. Here's where the cuts might be
Show HN: Askmormons.com – a Q/A website for discussing Mormons
It's really great to see Apple opening up - maybe not in their products, but in their culture. Programming language blog, a presence on social networks (mostly Twitter), posing for pictures with devs at WWDC, and generally embracing the dev community. All of these individual things seem small but together show a much more open side of Apple.

A side effect of these changes: Apple can control their own story now; whereas the rumor mill and the Apple-Needs-To-Release-A-New-Category-In-The-Next-30-Days-Or-They-Are-Doomed websites have been controlling their story/image for the past couple years.
Very cool!

Isn't there some kind of copyright or terms-of-service violation involved in publishing this?
yeah, wasted 4 years doing that. would have been way better spent working.. anywhere
You're getting downvoted, but I can corroborate. I've called 911 to verify that my VOIP install is providing correct ANI.

If you terminate a PRI into your PBX, you can send whatever number identification you desire.

This is fun for mucking about with coworkers (why is my wife calling me from home in the middle of the day?!?) but serious business for 911 services. You get it right, and you test it by calling them. Identify clearly and immediately that this is not an emergency, but an ANI test and would they please verify that the originating number is xxxxx.

It's fully expected and might even be "required".
There's a very big difference between network transparency and remote display. The FAQ is misleading about this, though. It's long needed an update. Perhaps I'll get to rewriting it one of these days.

What a great idea. Good luck with this sir! Please keep us all updated on your progress.
4-5 times a month would tend to be weekends only. If it was drinking you would consider that to be pretty casual.
2014, maybe its about time. You just have to define your problem set correctly, and work with reality rather than an idealised version of it(goes especially for historical precedences). we are lazy, selfish - egocentric, opportunistic animals .. with some natural variations into - what could be considered extremes (altruism / full blown "sociapathism" as an example). Designing public institutions means designing systems those institutions will run on - means getting rid of the non-existent ideals we like to assign to our selves as a species and start working with the sorry-state reality of homo-sapiens-sapiens - hence, engineering challenge ( like designing machinery for a self-managed pig-farm - and yes I chose pigs as an example on purpose )

That's not surprising. You can use cannabis once or twice a week (in moderation) and not suffer any significantly negative effects. But once you start to use it more often then that, you're basically going to be in withdrawal all the time unless you're just baked 24/7. It's not really any different than any other drug.
I wonder if they went to ebay and bought up all the stray copies before they did this marketing push.

There's one copy there and the bid is currently at $260. And the product image is a picture of Bill Gates reading it.

There's another pretty good one that I found a few days ago on github, I don't think it's the same as the one you're talking about, but it seems to be more complete than the OP's.

interesting. Higher than their example pricing which was based on 500k sessions/month with a sync at begin and end (https://aws.amazon.com/cognito/pricing/).

I find the aws pricing (and "cloud pricing" in general) fairly confusing, and the things is that you have to be so careful that the wrong checkbox isn't checked or something that opens the spigot to the credit card# you had to enter to try out the service on the free tier in the first place. Note that I saw that you can get an alert when it first charges anything via billing alerts (http://docs.aws.amazon.com/gettingstarted/latest/awsgsg-intr...), but still...
I think you'll find that people have been taking legal risks for marijuana (and any other drug) for a very long time. Take New York, for example. There have historically been laws so strict that possession of even small amounts can result in long jail sentences. The people taking pot out of Colorado probably don't see it as more risky than buying it illegally in their native state.

or, "awesome"?

Spycraft - with governments - is fascinating - and everyone does it. Including the Germans.

Remember - if Germany knows there is a mole in their operation, they can use him to give false info, which is known as "counter intelligence". This is often times more useful than having your own spy.

So, I don't think this is just a random episode, it's an attempt to express displeasure with the US, most likely over Ukraine. Doing so publicly embarrasses the US.

If this phone bugging can be overcome by throwing it in a box with music playing, we really have to think whether all these bullshit backdoors are going to work for intelligence.

What I agree is disgusting is that the backdoors won't ultimately capture the useful intelligence a country might need - it's the basis for totalitarianism, plain and simple. Apparently the NSA records 80% of all phone calls in the USA, including civilians. That's sick.

Governments spying on other governments, necessary evil. Is it possible to draw a distinction? i think so.
Surfin' Safari (https://www.webkit.org/blog/) is another great Apple developer blog. I followed it religiously back when Webkit was leaving everyone else in the dust.
Google's barely a twinkle in Larry and Sergey eyes when that article was written.
Well, let's just wait and see, because frankly, I'm tired of reading marketing fluff like "We can’t wait to see what you build!".

After years in the making (which means plenty of time to think of an answer), one of the most important questions still hasn't been answered, and not even mentioned on the blog.

Namely, will Swift be open-source and submitted to standards bodies? Will key libraries also be released?

If I make an investment to learn Swift, what are the chances that I can take this knowledge and use it outside of the Apple ecosystem? Or is Swift destined to follow the fate of Objective-C and be completely useless outside of Mac/iOS apps?
If you were to describe how Amp is differentiated with say Localytics, what would you say? We use localytics and while it's ok, I'm interested in learning about other tools out there. I think one pain point for us is understanding cohorts across apps, since we have a large portfolio.
A lot of the features and frameworks used are for iOS7+. Hence it would be a major rewrite.
Where did you get your copies of the games?
Fair enough, "very casual" wasn't the best adverb to use. I agree with dyladan's point though; drinking on the weekends would certainly be considered casual in my circle of friends.
Yikes. Sorry about that. I don't remember the last time I used a photo upload service, so I just used the first one that came up. I didn't notice the NSFW stuff due to adblock probably. Anyway, here's a safer link for anyone else:
