As someone who purchased a Note (1) on near release day (technically before release in the UK as I got an unlocked one before most of the contract networks had theirs on tap), I absolutely remember that.

Everyone online and off was claiming that the Note was simply "too big" and how it was a "tablet" and would never "fit in your pocket." But once I physically got the Note in my hands and they had a play, the tune quickly changed (at least for men with larger hands). Plus outside of skinny jeans it absolutely fits in my pockets.

When it came time to upgrade my Note (1), my choice of phones was much wider as almost every flagship had significantly closed the gap (e.g. 4.2-4.5" was the standard when the Note(1) got released (5.3"), but it was 5-5.1" when I had to upgrade).

So when I upgraded I went from the Note (1) to the LG G2, which is a 5.3" to 5.2" change. I didn't really notice the extra 1" but I did notice the significantly smaller brazil on the LG G2 and lighter weight.

If the Note (1) got released in 2014 people wouldn't even notice it as being particularly large. The Note 3 is 5.7"(!) by contrast. That's how far things have come.
`class="btn btn-large"` was sufficient for all the projects that I've seen so far. I'm honestly curious about the scale of the applications requiring such measures (there were some other attempts IIRC) and whether they "work".

On a side note, the name sounds funny in Turkish but I guess that's a minor concern.

If you want to try to resolve this, feel free to contact me via email (shawnsmlee at gmail); the code/capx project file is also on my github, so if you would like to try making sense of it yourself, you're more than welcome!
The end result is that the public doesn't know about the rule, so they see psychologists acting a certain way and frequently think it's actually epistemically bad, or impossible, to reason about the mental states of other humans based on their actions, writings, and other artifacts.

Imagine if computer security experts couldn't talk, in general, about the security of a line of products offered by a company, or about the probable cause of a specific issue that had been observed in a particular product.

The parallels ARE actually there; it's not as strange an analogy as it looks at first glance.

I understand some of the reasons the rule exists. I think this is probably not the best solution, in that it creates a public who have very strange ideas about psychiatry, and that is actually a great harm.

I'm neutral on most of this article, but like, specifically, if public perception is an issue, finding a better way to resolve the ethical dilemma that spawned the Goldwater Rule sounds like a pretty good idea to me.
Yeah, good luck with that. I'm more surprised they didn't say they would fix it with a MongoDB backed Facebook app written in node.js.
That's right tehwalrus, you don't need to replace current location systems if they work for you, but you can use it as an aditional line to gain accuracy and resiliency
Cheaper maybe but their repo men leave a lot to be desired.
> You could probably have called him to come to the DMV

You don't call people to come to the DMV. And you'd need a full plate to even consider such a thing. I don't think you know how the DMV works.

Yellow Cab #21 and "Indian Driver with a Turban, maybe named Singh" narrows the search space down from a little over 10 million cars to just a couple hundred. If you don't understand that, I'm not really sure you should be participating in the conversation.

> I don't know where you read that, because the company said he wasn't working for them anymore.

So when companies fire employees, they immediately purge all records of them having ever been employed there? Again, if you don't understand how these things work, you probably should bow out.

> It's called a license plate, every car has one, taxi or not.

True, but "I think it was XCC-2something something something" is different than "white AAA Cab #12, driver's ID said "Chung"". Guess which one is more precise? And that's why people bother to put id numbers of separate from the license plate on most professional vehicles, from taxis to long haul trucks.

You've never been curious why they do that? You've probably seen tens of thousands of marked vehicles and your conclusion is that it's just a waste of paint? Why bother? License plates.

> In an unregulated system, people would have to stop relying on this implicit assumption and make better judgment calls. Instead of entering on random cars that happened to be painted with the right colors and marks, which is a terrible authentication system¹, they'd need other - better - systems, like using an app that can verify the driver status in real time and record the client's location - possibly even during the ride.

You honestly need to bow out of the conversation because you're simply ignorant of the system that's being discussed. Once you learn about how unregulated taxis work, and how common they are the world over, and how they work, you can write a blog post and post it here and I guarantee I'll give you an upvote. Until then, you need to bow out of the discussion.
Ah yes, and you have never exceeded the speed limit yourself. We all believe that. Add yourself to your list of assholes.
Performance of long CSS files isn't really the (major) concern —its how many _elements_ are being traversed (size of the dom) that really effects CSS-selector performance.
Speeding isn't petty. It's entirely grotesquely selfish and arrogant. Our democratic system of elected representatives of our society has made it clear to you that you are expected to drive no faster than a limit. You have decided you're better than that and you can drive faster, and fuck everyone else, no matter what the consequences. I say ban for life anyone who speeds.
The author has a book titled "Doing Bayesian Data Analysis" that strikes a nice balance between over-simplification and face-melting mathematics.

While a Bayesian analysis is a fair bit more work than cobbling together a lackluster regression model, Bayesian results do seem to be more resistant to terrible interpretation.
I'm a heavy Gentoo user and a weekend should be enough. Especially if you've compiled a kernel before (do this btw, don't use genkernel).
As for speed, I doubt you'll really doubt you'll notice much. Memory usage and installation size is way more noticable. If you need a speed boost I suggest not using a Desktop Environment, but using a simple lightweight window environment (I use Awesome, some friends of mine use i3) in combination with xfce4 utilities, since they don't have a gigantic amount of dependencies and are very nice to use.

My dotfiles repository also contains my gentoo config files: https://github.com/JelteF/dotfiles/tree/master/etc/portage
Don't copy paste all of it, but it might be nice to see what a config aquired over a couple of years looks like. And some stuff is just nice to have for a desktop/laptop that you regularly use.
Thanks. That's what I ended up doing.. Luckily we had great legal council and the partner was kind enough to respond despite the outstanding legal bills we weren't able to settle!

For those interested this is the advice he gave us:

""just turn off the lights", do nothing. In order to formally dissolve, the corporation must pay all franchise taxes and "provide for payment of all liabilities". It costs too much to formally dissolve. There is no founder, officer or director liability to just ceasing business. Let the state dissolve the company. Also, there are no restrictions in starting a company later."

I was actually just at the Sheldrick Elephant Orphanage here in Nairobi last week and was really impressed with the work that they are doing. From what I can tell, they seem to operate of some fairly thin margins, I am sure that any donations would be hugely appreciated.

For what it's worth, their option to "adopt a baby elephant" makes for a great present for a lot of people I have found.
I'm not sure about lag compensation, but the good folks over at scirra added multiplayer functionality via WebRTC, which allows for peer-hosted games. I'll look into adding touch controls and maybe get it out to Android soon!

Thank you for the offer! I'll be sure to consult you if I have any questions!
count me on as well.

i endured with my nexus one until last year (4yrs!) because no flag ship phone could be used with one hand.

i finally gave up for a moto x and i can barely press the top left corner without moving my hold.
I think by "gamer" the article means people whose identities are largely defined by video games.

I disagree that gamers are necessarily misogynistic or even passively violent. I do agree that most gamers, as defined above, are highly consumeristic and intellectually deficient.
Very interesting approach. One small peeve: this method will not allow you to use Sass/LESS nesting.
I note that patents/"Intellectual Property" wasn't mentioned in the article at all. I suspect, based on the participants mostly being corporations, that the whole thing will be covered by patents.

I think TCP/IP as non-patented, slipped by the major corporations. A protocol anyone can implement, and where the "client" and "server" are pretty hard to tell apart, is disadvantageous to market encumbents, and to surveillance agencies. For instance, nobody can charge fees for implementing TCP/IP. Nobody can license content servers. Nobody can accurately attribute a packet to a legally-responsible entity ("one neck to wring").

The protocol to replace TCP/IP will be patent encumbered, it will make a complete distinction between "client" and "server", it will be centrally routed, it will be subject to surveillance, and servers will be licensed, and costly. If NDN doesn't do some or all of these things, it's already dead.
I believe that it's setup that way in order to maintain some sort of standardization of questions and to prevent people from writing questions that are easily guessable. That's not to say that it isn't doable, as I've had some of my clients ask for this type of functionality before. Most of the time they end up using a predefined (or OOTB - out of the box) list of questions.

Take a look at the following article as it describes the various forms of identity proofing pretty accurately.
http://unissant.com/identity-proofing-an-introduction/

Companies have been moving to more complex forms of identity proofing (OTP or Risk based) and it will be only a matter of time till it becomes more mainstream.

I hope this answers your question.
I was doing some prototyping on using Snabb for kvm - that stuff is working now.

Making a virtual network adaptor in userspace not in a vm is actually slightly non trivial, but the kvm passthrough in Snabb is very fast now, zero copy.
i looked. it fits the bill on size only.

but on the usa they cost too much. are not easy to flash custom roms and are full of boat on the factory one.
You may prefer the regular "data-" prefix (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Guide/HTML/Usin...) to "am-", especially if you want to be compatible with React.
This is by no metrics isolated to governmental run organizations but something you will see in many larger organizations. It's a consequence amongst other things of having deep pockets and not tight enough feedback loops IMHO.
Whatever Cisco plans to do, I won't trust it not to have a back door. After all Cisco is the author of the IETF protocol for "lawful intercept" in routers, and if I'm not mistaken they also have a pretty high placed co-chair at IETF.

How to call bullshit on a guru
I'm not sure I buy the premise that a brain even understands a literal sentence completely by simulating it, in all cases. I think that is a component of understanding, and can help understand, depending on both the sentence and our direct experience of the situation the sentence describes.

But I don't think that is the whole story because I don't think that permits partial understanding. What explains our ability to understand (or partially) understand a sentence describing a novel situation we've never experienced involving objects or people we've never seen? As the article points out sometimes we are able to understand sentences for which there is no motor activity or visual experience associated.

A huge example of this is soon after we're born and start to develop we begin to understand sentences even though we're not being formally taught a language - only exposed to it. The simulation theory seems not to explain that process of 'bootstrapping.'
You aren't wrong. David Auerbach at Slate has written a small piece on it: http://www.slate.com/articles/technology/bitwise/2014/09/gam...
interesting approach!
any real web/app using this technique?
Genkernel has never worked for me and configuring a kernel is a really good learning experience. Which is probably what you want if you install Gentoo.
How is that a problem? Who "playing the game for enjoyment" is picking up every rule change from MLB? Who "playing for enjoyment" has strike cameras set up at their field?
I like the simplicity of it. I could see myself actually using this to buy a new outfit, whereas for most fashion sites I feel hopelessly lost because, truthfully, I just need someone to tell me what to get. I have a vague desire to dress well, but I find I just can't be bothered to keep up on trends to research how different pieces go together myself.

Presenting a clean list of outfits from which I can choose, with each outfit having every individual component already mapped out, represents an easy compromise.
The Dawn of Modern Anesthesia
I think the problem is that it hasn't proven to be "effective". Have there been any placebo-controlled trials at all? Even the 'positive' trial for C dificile wasn't placebo-controlled.

Medical history is littered with extravagant claims for new medical treatments that end up being due to the placebo effect. Bear in mind that fecal transplant will have a HUGE placebo effect, so you need to rule that out before postulating that the treatment itself has any effect.
This is like people that stopped smoking and are now telling others they suck because they still smoke.
Not a chance, browsers can optimise lookup for ids and classes (or even elements by name) because they have spec-defined semantics, and they can be preprocessed based on those semantics (e.g. used to key maps). Custom attributes have arbitrary semantics, so they can't be fit into such a static structure.

Technically nothing prevents browsers from inferring specific behaviors from the way a custom attribute is used, and dynamically generate shortcuts (e.g. key objects by attribute name, value or computed value), but I doubt any existing browser does so, so you get a "universal selector" behavior: every element of the DOM has to be scanned and processed to apply the rule.

And it's not exactly an easy problem, it's essentially equivalent to auto-generating (and tearing down, since elements, attributes and CSS rules can be added and removed on the fly) database indexes except you've got way less usage to rely on (for cost/benefit estimations), and way less usage time to recoup your investment.
The article talks a lot more about the computer than the man,who I thought is supposed to be the subject.
Running an aquaponic system is not easy. We have been running one for a year now inside our house under growlights (as an experiment - no way it is economical). a lot is automated with the arduino, but if my wife was not a microbiologist we would have failed totally. Super interesting however.
To clarify, I'm using C2r178, and no third party plugins.

Its a like to a blog on compressive sensing pointing out that sensing (or rather sampling) is mathematically equivalent to using the identity matrix. It goes on as an introduction to compressive sensing.
we have been running an indoor aquaponic system as an expriment for a year now and you are right, it is a pipe dream mostly. Lots of fun to be had, but its not a cheap hobby.

Our collective inability to conceive of the idea that perfect enforcement of previous sloppy rules may require the rules to be adjusted is scary in light of the increasing ability of computers to enforce laws, too. MLB is a sideshow by comparison. If even HN-type readers have a hard time with the idea, we're in some deep trouble over the next couple of decades.
Two super-cool things:

1. Docker. Essentially, you can make a container around your Rails app and launch it anywhere. Docker isn't exclusive to CoreOS, but CoreOS happens to be really good at it.

2. fleet. You specify a configuration file when you launch a CoreOS droplet with DigitalOcean, and it teaches the system how to launch your docker container automatically, and coordinate with any other CoreOS droplets you have running.

This means you can teach your machines to, say, not all reboot for updates at the same time and thus bring down your service. They'll argue amongst themselves about who reboots when.

It also means that if you tell certain instances to identify as DB instances, and certain instances to identify as Rails instances, they'll know how to find each other, and you can teach them to fail over to each other if you have redundancy.
When we began the work to integrate with CoreOS we saw that it was a perfect opportunity to build out the metadata service, which is why we decided to delay that initial launch until we rolled out this service.

After we've had a chance to work through some of the bugs that customers will uncover that we've missed in our testing we'll move forward to updating the rest of our images for this new metadata service and launching it publicly for production consumption for all customers.

Thanks
It's an uninformed defense of a fundamentally incorrect position; no wonder most people here disagree with it. People here know that a language is syntax and semantics, he seems to be arguing that semantics aren't important, or that ambiguity in semantics is good? It only makes sense if your Markdown never has to be processed in any way (e.g. converted to HTML). Which ok, maybe there are some use cases for that, but they are dominated by the ones where Markdown is transformed into another representation. That requires semantics.

> This gives it the rare characteristic of being intuitive to understand and use, but not necessarily easy (or even unambiguously possible) to implement

Ambiguity does not make anything easy to understand or use. Not possible to implement is not a feature of any language.
That's pretty difficult to surmise given you don't know how much of the interest is for profit vs how much covers risk of defaulters. Arbitrarily, of that $700 turned $3900 loan a non-profit might still need to run it $3500 just to cover all the other loans that they receive nothing from.
I've noticed this as well. What an oddly specific trend.
The lowercase t is too small.
I play a decent bit of video games, and used to play a LOT more, by some standards I might be called a gamer still. I've defiantly seen some of what you mention, however, I've also seen some of the best communities of people.

I play WoW, and the guild I play with has a relatively good mix of nationality and gender, and I've never once heard someone berate or look down upon our female players.

I think as with most things, there is a spectrum.
I don't have one but I remember with my last smartphone (years ago), the battery lasted at least 3 days and I was able to make it last more than a week without any issue. I found out that if I didn't charge it everyday, I would often forget to do it. I had a cable to charge it at work because I forgot too often at first. I started charging it everyday and when I bought the Galaxy Nexus, I had no issue with the awful battery life. I would still like if it lasted more than 2 days, just in case.

If the reviews on the Moto 360 aren't too bad and the battery last at least 2 days, I will probably buy it.
I think it's more adblock plus you have installed doing a keyword match in the url string for popunder when a new tab is created
Docker is a technology that lets a VM use resources of the host (threads, etc) directly, so you get VMs that are super super light weight. With Docker, even your laptop can run 100 VMs, all with different OSes and customizations (though linux only) without breaking a sweat.

CoreOS is a special linux flavor designed to be used specifically in this role, making the VMs even MORE light weight (and has features to coordinate multiple VMs working together.)

DigitalOcean allows you to host VMs in the cloud. Now you have the full shebang: A hosting provider designed to run an OS designed to run efficiently as a VM.
You can definitely do this, though I think "data-am-" is better to avoid conflicts. React ignores unexpected attributes at the moment, but can't forever with Custom Elements (since it can't know what valid attributes for new elements are).

wrong.

the top left corner is very high on usage. on newer android without the menu button, the top right is very high too.

now, android added lots of unsatisfactory work arounds for the very fact that almost everyone can't reach those corners. such as sliding from the left to simulate the top left corner touch. or even the failed fire phone with screen tilt to do the same.

it's all lame work arounds for the problem. the real solution is smaller screen sizes.
"data-am-" would be a good choice indeed :)
