Sure. We'll convert each province to a state, take our 20 Senators, and get you real socialized medicine ASAP.

(OK, to be fair, the Maritimes can be one state, so 16 Senators - but Quebec will likely want more in respect of its distinctiveness, so make it 24 Senators. And we'll need at least 2 bilingual justices on SCOTUS, and at least 4 SCOTUS justices will need to have been trained in civil law. Oh, and we repeal the second amendment, of course, then put in place our amendment process. You're just going to love it. But you'll gain from better copyright and patent laws. Not to mention all the comedians who cannot get Green Cards for various reasons. Then again, if it means you keep Celine, we'll stay the way we are, thanks.)

No; it's post hoc ergo propter hoc: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Post_hoc_ergo_propter_hoc
You could in principal store the old history in a separate repository then (reasons for this may be that the repo historically contained many binary files, possibly because it’s been converted from an SVN repo). After refactoring and rebasing (Note: You do in fact change the SHAs in this scenario – what they do in the blog post is a rebase+squash/fixup basically.) you prepare a new repo which is much smaller and in which you do all further development.

However, sometimes it may be necessary for developers to do a `git blame` which needs to include the old data or similar. If this happens, you add the historical repo as another remote and `git replace` the oldest commit from the dev repo with the historical repo.

Only a few developers will ever need to use `git replace` in this scenario, so it would not say that it is too confusing. (If it was confusing, I’d say everybody would probably have learned that it exists the hard way…) Maybe think of it as a kind of git submodule but for time.
My guess is that OP is not in the U.S. Google isn't perfect but a 2-month background check is NOT the norm. A company that dysfunctional would get no talent.

In my experience, any scrutiny beyond the normal 2-3 references (no back channel) can be killed by faking (or, better yet, getting) a competing offer. That type of scrutiny/delay means they're on the fence because they see you as a low-status (but possibly capable) chump and social proof is often what it takes to land on the right side.

Although I don't see a way to test it, I'm guessing that the payment page itself is secure and does use SSL but the sales pages don't. Probably using stripe.com directly instead of hosting the forms locally.

Edit: Okay, I was wrong and right at the same time. The page itself is not secure just http. It does, however, have an iframe with the stripe CC stuff in it. That is served over SSL, so the data is encrypted. The user just can't easily tell.
Welcome to the world of privatisation. When you privatize institutions which should be run by the government in the first place (health care, public transport, prisons, etc..) then you obviously open up the door for all sorts of corruption since now suddenly all these systems need to make profit.

Which is interesting, because the vast majority of people (including and perhaps especially those who reject intelligent design in biology) think that a relatively stable and successful society and economy can only exist when organized by a centrally and deliberately planned body called government. That's essentially the "intelligent design" belief for human societies.

It's not about doing it in an orderly way, it's about doing it on purpose.

If I'm upset and download a bunch of documents onto a flash drive and send it to a person that is nice to me, and it just so happens that in amongst the hundreds of thousands of miscellaneous documents is some scrap of evidence of wrongdoing, it doesn't make me a hero for doing it.

If on the other hand I find that evidence and expose it purposefully because I have principles, that's another story.

Intent has meaning when you're defending a person's actions.
You're right, but with enough data I suspect that becomes a relatively small error source.
Are they going to go with just one of them? If so, that looks bad for SpaceX. They may have caught wind of it early and let go of some people in anticipation. I just can't see the federal government giving a mega deal to a "small" less-connected SpaceX over industry favorite Boeing. Tell me I'm wrong. I really want to be wrong.
Ask HN: Server-side options for Swift, deploy to Android/Windows
Swift is changing quickly. There are services and libraries popping up for server side Swift development and for deployment to Android and Windows straight from the Apple dev chain.

What do you know of that offers these services based in Swift / Obj C? Please distinguish between server and cross-platform deployment.

The apartment next to mine is an AirBnB "hotel" - continuously rented with no permanent tenant. The cops have come repeatedly to investigate, but the process to evict the "tenant" is slow.

I have dealt with:

* Very loud guests hosting parties in the (small studio) apartment

* Guests loud in the hallways at 1-2am (screaming, drunk, etc)

* Guests ignoring fire alarms until other tenants call emergency services for them.

It really is horrible. AirBnB does nothing when contacted.

What kind of person doesn't get hacked?
Well 99% of the views come from competitive games being played online. For example, there are less than 40 people watching Fallout 3 as I type this, but over 120,000 watching League of Legends. So you're right to not get it, because that's not really something people do.

When players do watch a streamer play a single player game, it's usually because the game has recently been released, and they want to make an opinion on whether or not they should buy it. Or because they enjoy the streamer's personality and commentary. They're not watching Fallout 3, they're watching TotalBiscuit play Fallout 3.
Interesting site. First thing I noticed is that it doesn't (yet) support Http Live Streaming and instead requires Flash. However, their chat is working without flash. This is opposite of what I encounter on Twitch (HTTPLS works but chat doesn't).

Another alternative is www.azubu.tv which I saw Artosis streaming from. This one supports HTTPLS but again requires Flash for chat. I'm not sure if this is solely affiliated with the pro gaming team only.
If earthquake alerts are their own category, I probably won't. However, if they're lumped in with much more common events (thunderstorm! non-custodial parent spending time with child!) that I don't care to hear, then I will.

No, but if I personally thought that practices which are extremely commonplace (like the collection of anonymous data) were privacy violations, I probably would read the T&Cs. Unfortunately, I would also be unable to use the vast majority of electronic products, including virtually all websites.

Why does every Linux admin who's worked with VMWare think the CLI tools are terrible? Do they require a JVM or other prerequisite to operate? Are they not natively packaged for common distributions? Do they use non-native conventions for the platform? (e.g. using / as an option argument prefix) Are they not simple scripts that could be ported to OS X and run from Homebrew?

If my colleagues are just misinformed, that's one thing, but I'm hearing this feedback from people I generally trust. I'd love to have a neutral opinion on the CLI toolset quality.
Sure. Will do in a few.
I've watched Notch code numerous times (mostly on Ludum Dare streams) and he's strongly in the always keeps moving camp of developers. He thinks as he goes and isn't scared to backtrack or rip stuff out when he changes his approach.
That's typically only true for really obscure things, but not for well-established projects like GAP, Singular, or Scipy. So what part of Sage is in this state? Are people contributing to Sage itself but failing to provide any reasonable infrastructure to support that software?

Maybe they have increased their stake or something, but the only deal I can find was for 5%. And I wouldn't call 5% a large portion. It certainly seems dubious that they would be able to exert much control at all at that level.

If you look at areas of current evolution like patent law, you'll see that iteration is still taking place. Each case builds on the body of the precedent built before it. Right now the concept of 'software patents' is not legally defined, current precedent is aimed at figuring out just what that means. Math isn't patentable, that much is established. Is software math? Questions that seem simple on the surface become very complicated when applied to the real world. That's what the iteration is aimed at doing, solving tough questions of language.

Constitutional law is under constant iteration, the Supreme Court often makes decisions about which cases to take based on whether it thinks it will be able to advance the state of that area of law.

If you subscribe to blogs like Popehat, you can get a feel for this iteration/evolution process and how it works in modern times.

Even if live-streaming video games (or other digital real-time content like screenshares) was a hot market, Amazon doesn't have as good a record as Google in integrating it's acquisitions.

Look at Audible - they still have their own crufty website (which uses the same credentials as your Amazon site, sure) and discovery and reviews are less usable there than on Amazon.com.

Also see Goodreads, DPR and IMDB - all places where things have essentially gone on "as before".
When negotiating (and interviewing for a job is a negotiation), never give more information than you have to.

In your case, no one but the recruiter (and other people on the hiring committee) know why you were really rejected; but what's certain is that telling her that you decided to not take the offer certainly didn't help you.

However, saying something like: "Microsoft's offer is really enticing, and I'm thinking very hard about it. That being said I've heard so many great things about Google, and I'd love to work there. Microsoft wants my decision by <end of month, end of next week, whatever>- do you think we could go through the interviews before then?".

That alone wouldn't have gotten you an offer, but it would have made you a slightly more desirable target.

Valve has no need for adding on a hugely expensive live streaming site. Steam has very little serious and threatening competition and their own IPs (Dota and CS) are raking in cash along side their marketplace. They are doing well now and don't have the same stock holder expectations for growth as a public company would.
That is your personal opinion, and it's perfectly valid. I would recommend people with that opinion to not use a Jawbone UP.
Any real sport or just the ones you know? For example, baseball is really popular in the US but most people where I'm from would have a hard time watching it if you tried to pay them to: we don't know the rules of the game very well, we understand the strategies the teams use, we can't tell an exciting play from a boring one, etc.

With video games its a bit similar. If you played the game or something similar before you can appreciate whats going on but otherwise you will be completely lost and everything feels pointless.

It's mostly privacy concerns, but also the fact that you use this software at all can disclose some interesting information to eavesdropping attackers. Most worrisome is just that it's not very well disclosed - most users just don't know it's happening, and it's not very well justified.

'One Weird Trick To Fight List Articles'
The vast majority of FB uses are using an app, not a browser. clicking a link in the FB app does not take out "out of Facebook" they know if you clicked the back arrow within the app, and went back to your feed.
Google is like a corporate supermodel. Their brand is legendary, like Apple or Facebook. They have so many guys to choose from, and they can afford to be very picky.

Fortunately for those of us who do not work for corporate supermodels, being married to the supermodel is not always the heaven one imagines. Maybe it has its upsides, but a lot of the allure is just image and marketing, and the reality is much less pleasant than the fantasy.

If working for Google or Facebook or Apple is important to someone, then they have to take whatever crap these companies dish out. But personally, I'd much rather work for the NEXT Google than the current one. And if I was going to work for the current Google, I'd much rather do so by way of them paying me millions of dollars to buy the amazing product I created, rather than by way of begging and hoping for a job. Guido van Rossum and Ken Thompson created amazing things, and because of that, Google hired them.

Therefore, instead of seeking a job at Google directly, a more profitable approach might be to immediately start creating whatever you really care about, and let the question of what company creates your W-2 take care of itself. This is no guarantee that you'll eventually work for Google, but it is the most likely path to eventually being legitimately in the company of the van Rossums and Thompsons of the world, and it will probably be a lot of fun getting there.

Subject-wise it still can be edgy at times, but I still miss the Gavin McInnes days (the pushed out co-founder)[1], despite him resurfacing kind of predictably as a Fox News regular. The writing in the magazine itself has mellowed since then and often succumbs to a uninspiring stale journalistic style that I think the editors mistake for gravitas. But then again, no one reads anymore so there is that...I like some of the fiction though.

People don't "contribute" math components to Sage, for the most part.
