No, these are Linux namespaces. These break up the things jail does into smaller pieces of functionality, and that is more difficult. But this bug is to do with the fact that Linux just has a lot more complex kernel functionality than the BSDs do.

You can break out of a jail if there is a local exploit that gives kernel code execution as non root.

What do you mean "anymore"? I only responded once.

My problem is simple: you define talent as being "successful" by your opening sentence. From the beginning you question his talent because you haven't seen more successes from him. That's what I'm taking issue with.

Of course I don't want you to define other things needed for success, that's precisely the problem. Success is not a barometer for success, more like a very very loose correlation.

> unfortunately I can't tell from the article or the journal abstract how big the SNP sets involved actually are, but given the difficulty in finding them I'd expect more than four or five SNPs per set.

Table 1 ( https://pdf.yt/d/rErZm8HUluBbj8xu / https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/5317066/2014-arnedo.pdf / https://www.sendspace.com/file/ht7shm ) list characteristics of the sets; they range from a low of 3 to a high of 32, with associated risks of 70 - 100% (!).

The size of the sets with a risk of schizophrenia between 90% and 100% is 11/11/19/4/6/3/10/6/9. (SNP set 87\_76 is the one with just 3 SNPs and a risk of 95%. Very nasty.)

Unfortunately I don't think this risk information is enough to to calculate how much predictive value SNPs would have for someone undiagnosed since you'd need to know how many healthy people have these SNP sets as well? But I'm sure the genomics hobbyists and anyone with 23andme data are probably looking closely at the paper and trying to extract risk estimates...

Steam didn't bring about DRM in games. Games not listed on Steam still have DRM, and generally have much more restrictive DRM than Steam. DRM isn't even a requirement for selling on Steam. Some games (though not many, I know Bastion is one example) will run without Steam, and Steam is just used for updates and achievements.

Even though we're using CSS as much as possible, we do need the character metrics in order to do positioning properly. (For example, $x^2$ and $F^2$ differ in the vertical position of the 2.) You'll need to update these metrics to use it with a different font -- see

https://github.com/Khan/KaTeX/blob/master/src/fontMetrics.js

and the "make metrics" Makefile rule. We haven't added the ability to swap font metrics at runtime or to easily build a version with different metrics but I'm not opposed to the idea.

Ah. Yes, the diagram generating libraries are harder to implement. Since we don't actually implement the primitives that TeX uses, we can't just import libraries like xypic or tikz wholesale, we'd have to rewrite them from scratch. Maybe a project for when we've got most of the actual math working.

As for why we didn't work with MathJax, this started out as more of an internal project for making our own math fast, and has slowly built up to what we have today.

We also didn't think that we could get the speed we wanted while still supporting all of the obscure features MathJax does (like SVG rendering).

Indeed, maybe there was no scientific dark age in the Middle ages, at least not globally, but It was a dark age in Europe, knowledge was lost, the (roman) world economy collapsed and entirely disappeared, economic throughput and population would not recover until the industrial revolution[1]. The dark age ended when the last remaining of the ancient Roman world was forcibly dispersed from Constantinople, most of it found a safe harbor in Italian cities that would become the center of the Renaissance.[2]

MS IE11 is a pretty decent browser. Has auto-updating, and supports many web standards correctly. It's not perfect, or even better than other browsers, but it's a beginning. Now we just need Microsoft to sunset everything before IE11, and save the web development world $Billions.
Forcing it on your playerbase is definitely going to upset people, but that doesn't always make it a bad idea. A good enough product can cause an ecosystem like that to actually gain the mass of users it needs to succeed.

Could you imagine if tomorrow, every Minecraft player needed to create a MS account and use some new sort of steam-like MS Games service to launch it? Sure, a few would quit, but not the majority. Overnight you could gain enough users to compete with Steam.

I'm not saying this will happen, or is even likely. Just that it makes sense to me.

No; the phenotype data was extracted from structured interviews:

"Ninety-three clinical features of schizophrenia from interviews based on the Diagnostic Interview for Genetic Studies (30), as well as the Best Estimate Diagnosis Code Sheet submitted GAIN/non-GAIN to dbGaP, were initially considered with the MGS sample (see references 31, 32; see also Appendix I in the online data supplement). The Diagnostic Interview for Genetic Studies was utilized for the Portuguese Island samples. Corresponding features were extracted in CATIE from the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale, the Quality of Life Questionnaire, and the Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-IV (23). These phenotypic sets and their relations with one another characterize the phenotypic architecture of schizophrenia (Figure 1B)."

They did consider but reject using medical records (which is where a Watson might come into play):

"Despite the detailed phenotypic information we had available about subjects, there are still limitations to data obtained even from reliable structured interviews like the Diagnostic Interview for Genetic Studies. Interview data are based on self-reports that are interpreted and coded by interviewers. Subjects may not be willing or able to report their symptoms accurately. We had obtained information from treatment records and family history reports, but we chose not to use such additional information, except for the resulting best-estimate final DSM ratings of diagnosis, because its extent and quality varied in unmeasured ways between cases. The greatest limitation in the phenotypic assessments in available GWAS databases has been the overreliance on subjective symptoms with an absence of objective measurements, such as cognitive tests, brain electrophysiology, and neuroimaging (37). Subjective symptoms are fuzzy indicators of the underlying pathophysiology. Objective measures could complement the assessment of symptoms and could be applied to both cases and controls, thereby providing a more comprehensive and valid characterization of the phenotype of all subjects. The biggest challenge in GWAS is access to studies with rich phenotypic data about both subjective and objective measures obtained systematically from all subjects."

We won't support ASCIIMath yet. There's a lot of content on the web already in LaTeX syntax (and on our own website), and a lot of people already know it.

He used multiple accounts to vote-ring.
While we cannot predict the future with perfect certainty statements like: "A better battery will benefit humanity" are safe bets. There are many things that we know with a high degree a certainty will benefit humanity.
We do tend to "see" patterns that associate to built-in or learned abstractions, such as faces (or elephants, etc.) in clouds. This is especially the case when social reinforcement is a factor, like when someone points skyward and asks, "don't you see a face in that cloud?" and soon everyone standing nearby agrees it sure looks like a face.

That computers are "fooled" may simply reflect their human programming, though not being fooled could well be a very hard problem to solve.

It's amusing the way face-detection in my spiffy digital camera (an Olympus EM1) will find faces in all kinds of inanimate objects. The feature can be useful for photographing real people, but in other situations face-detection is just a distraction and I keep it turned off.

Though now I may have to aim the camera at a few clouds...
That is great to know. I had mistakenly assumed that it is one of the key requirements. I am in my late 30s and will be soon starting on my startup journey. Having worked with a big telecom vendor for a large part of my career, I sometimes make the mistake of finding reasons why I cannot start a venture. I suppose it is time for a real change. Whether I go for YC or not this year (I live in the UK and cannot leave in the near future for personal reasons), I am surely going to give this whole startup thing a good kick in the coming days!

Thanks all.

Home Depot's “C-Level” security on the eve of hacking
Well, I think for the use case most people use it for on the web, embedding a few equations in a web page, it's just fine, because everyone who writes about math already knows LaTeX. It doesn't really matter that no one is actually doing document-level typesetting on the web. It may be idiosyncratic in some ways but it's just too common to replace IMO.
So, so that mean that Gc will probably be phased out of the standard library. Now I come to think of it, since Rust knows the lifetime of most (all ?) the memory, would it be thinkable that the compiler also optimise memory mapping/fragmentation ? Or would that interfere with Dynamically Sized Types ? I feel I really out to dig deeper into Rust once it's a bit more stable.

they'll have no idea when cleaning would be necessary

I wouldn't be so sure about that - I've seen a lot of office workers who probably don't have any idea how printers work know to take the toner cartridge of a laser printer out and rock it a few times when the printouts start to fade.

To me the biggest annoyance with cleaning (besides the ink waste) is how long it takes, and how difficult it is to do a test pattern print - usually it's a long cycle of "push cleaning button, wait a minute or more, then go back to the computer to fiddle with the disgustingly bloated software to get the test pattern option".

What I'd prefer is a simple pushbutton that starts cleaning the moment you hold it down, and keeps cleaning as long as it's held down. Next to it could be a "print nozzle check" button. Instruct the users to use these when streaks start showing up in the output, and there will probably be far less ink wasted as a result. (There will always be the idiots who lean on the cleaning button until the cartridges empty, but that's a problem of the existing system of fixed-length cleaning cycles too.)
VCs are safer because of existing capital commitments but this probably isn't good news for new VC funds.

But nobody was saying they're wrong except for this author. I question why you're so quick to trust this random author. The author himself explicitly states he emailed the scientists who did this study, and all he says about it is a quick note at the end of this article where they said the amount of error in their results means the TSA could still be telling the truth. IE. The scientists who did this study are saying that their findings aren't enough to prove anything about the TSA, but the author is saying they are. The author also didn't reproduce anything of what the scientists actually said to him. IMO, I don't blame you for not trusting the TSA, but there's nothing about this article that makes it particularly trustworthy either.
I'm sure we do, but honestly I don't know how to tell if someone is Mexican, or if they just have a Hispanic name.

"
...educational and voluntary copyright program." -- volunteer, hum, afaik and from what I recall from seeing these in the past; by clicking on any of the links in one of those emails, you are admitting guilt. Please correct me if I'm wrong, but I take it that if you respond to these you admit that you downloaded something & if you just ignore there is nothing you (comcast) can do to prove otherwise (what if you have an open network, share your key with friends, etc.) Likewise, who would want to volunteer for a program that profiles what their downloading. While you say you don't "terminate" users based on copyright infringement, the fact is that you are monitoring your users to differentiate who's doing what. I don't want to sound like a conspiracy theorist, but I don't believe this PR stunt. I know it means nothing, since I'm from the internet (and who should take me seriously), but I've been a corporate customer, and have worked with residential users of comcast, and would not doubt nefarious monitoring. If you would like anyone to take you seriously proof would be nice, not just a inconsequential mess of "yeah, we promise we're not monitoring you, and I, Jason, am using tor, so it's okay."

Yes, yes I do. The fact that you see his future plans as some kind of ironclad contract is precisely the problem. Minecraft did not explode because of these promises, it succeeded because of the reality on the ground as a fun game.

Notch gave the world a fun game, you gave him a small purchase price in order to enjoy it, end of transaction. The fact that he published thoughts and future plans does indenture him as your eternal entertainment provider. He should be free to leave daily development and do with his creation as he will, including deciding to do something differently than he originally envisioned. This is his prerogative as creator. To all the people who claim their participation "made" the success of Minecraft, I say bullshit, you are playing a fucking game.

You know what's a lot worse for humanity? When Twitter decided to be a media company instead of an infrastructure company. That also pissed off a lot of people who "made" the success of the company. But you know what? Same deal. It's their prerogative. You can cry and gnash your teeth, and of course you are entitled to your opinion, but the value of all those opinions? Farts in the wind.
"Shock, horror, words have contexts which cause them to mean different things."

Dunno what his problem is, but my problem is the context in which "organic" gets used with respect to foods: a massively expensive, misleading, anti-science marketing campaign by huge corporations intent on profiting from people's mistaken belief that "organic" products are--by virtue of being "organic"--healthier or better for the environment.

Since the people behind this huge corporate marketing campaign are also promulgating lies about GMOs in an attempt to force labeling on them and prevent their development, your claim "there's no detriment" to others from those who support them is false.

Marketers need to get a new trend – no more top 10 lists
Ran some math with friends. Minecraft is from 2009, so it's 5 years old. https://minecraft.net/stats says it's sold ~16M pc and mac copies and the front page says at $27. That's about $432M in its entire life [assuming everyone paid full price, which they didn't, there have been loads of deals over the years]. Now that doesn't take into account mobile and console. For android the $7 pocket version is reporting 5M which is $35M. I don't have numbers for iOS and console but I can't really imagine they come close to PC and Mac. And as my friend reminded "Well I'm one if those 5m and I paid $0.10 [for the android version]"

I have a hard time understanding where they get the $2.5B valuation considering its revenues. Another friend thought advertising: " heck, even brand recognition - if they put "Microsoft Minecraft" on the title, I'm sure that's comparable to a few superbowl ads &tc"

So we ran that math.

"the average cost of a 30-second advertisement was around $4 million" - wikipedia [ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_Bowl_advertising ] "Super Bowl XLV, played in 2011, became the most-watched American television program in history with an average audience of 111 million viewers " - wikipedia. 16.7M people have bought minecraft [mincraft.com/stats pc and mac] + 5M for android. That's still a fraction of a super bowl ad (like 16%) or ~$670,000 value in super bowl advertising terms. Except I suspect anyone actually in advertising would say the value of a finely crafted 30 second video advert massively beats your company name under a game title.

Regardless of quibbles, the advertising potential seems off by many orders of magnitude. also as was mentioned: "Is brand recognition something ms has a problem with?"

So where is the $2.5B coming from? Especially when the gamesutra article [ http://www.gamasutra.com/view/news/225611/Minecraft_studio_M... ] has them saying they think they can recoup the full value in 1 year!

He's a bit disingenuous.

Don't care about the money at all? Open-source it and let it thrive.

Care about the money a bit, but really want the game to survive? Want the community to have faith in its future? Sell it to Valve for $25m or something on the condition that an API gets built. If it's worth a fraction of its sell price, Valve would have jumped on it.

But instead, it got sold to a company devoted to closed source software and killing its game purchases. And Notch got a fat check for it.

Listen, I can't judge him, and I won't. The game is great, and he built it. But every action in this says it's about money, while none of it shows a care for the game. We'll see how it pans out, but history tells us to be suspicious.
