Hey its George one of the founders here.
Our goal with Morph is to enable data transformation between WebHooks with no need to write code. Instead, you may use our visual configuration editor. Our purpose is to make simpler to connect arbitrary services together.

Specifically, with the editor you may:
- Rename fields from the original response
- Move them to a different place in the response
- Remove them completely
- Create new fields and structures

We plan to add more functionalities in the futre. So if you have any questions or comments I'd love to answer them.

To be honest, I never understood what's so elusive in Mona Lisa's smile. Am I the only one who just sees a regular smile?

I can clearly see her smiling in the high frequency filtered image, even more than in the low freq ones, where she looks worried or embarrassed to me.
> The facts are there: Russia is invading Ukraine.

That's bullshit. Quoting Euromaidan sourced "news" is worse than quoting RT.

If Russians were invading Ukraine, we would not talk about months long conflict. We would be talking about one week, tops. And they would not stay in Donbass, they would stop in Chop.

How such operation works, see Czechoslovakia in 1968. Basically, your top brass wakes up in the morning and is looking into a barrel being held by some polite people.

CC info is no doubt a daunting ask but it is valuable information when it comes to monetizing data about us.

This space of personal data monetization is a huge trust exercise. The relationship has be developed with the user, almost at an individual level, for them to share their data from across platforms. Many of us are more willing to part, based on the knowledge that it's already happening and we should take part if we want something in return. While others are more hesitant and need to see the value (or other's adopting) before jumping in. And there are many others who it doesn't speak to at all - this includes folks who go out of their way to never post a photo of them online. To each their own :)

The path is evolving though, where users will have more control and gain an increasing amount of value from their data. But it's a longer term game - because the trust needed to get to the intimate information about users takes time to develop but is priceless once it's there.

The idea is to have a common UI and REST API for building packages and managing repositories across packaging toolchains. Right now it supports rpm+yum and deb+apt. Packages are built in isolated Linux containers using Heroku's buildpack interface. (Would love feedback from anyone who's interested in beta testing.)

Also, have you seen the Omaha protocol?

It's used by a lot software, including Chrome and ChromeOS. Recently, CoreOS has built infrastructure with it and they offer a SaaS product for rolling updates. I think they're planning on using it to update Docker containers, too:

How to Automate Your Social Media Activity and Build Relations with Influencers
Assuming your image was of Google ads, not organic search results: eBay might be keying off Ferret (ie pet supplies) I'd guess, whilst the genealogy site would probably be keying off Felicia, on the principle that Felicia Ferret might be someone's name.

You're saying that Google is inserting paid ads into organic search results with no indication that they are paid ads?

No, definitely not - the ads I'm talking about are shown in the sections marked as such. It's just that Google can expand the keywords that the ads respond too in ways that can surprise ad buyers that aren't aware of it.

It wouldn't surprise me if large websites play SEO games as well, but Google will respond to the behaviour of searchers when shown these results and push unhelpful results down the search order - if no one ever clicks on the eBay Felicia Ferret link, even though it starts off being the first result, then it will receive a penalty that ought to push it off the first page of results quite quickly.

(I have no internal knowledge of Google's processes; this is all inferred from watching Google over the years.)

UChicago’s current situation seems to constitute a worst-case example of the “failure of governing boards to ensure that institutions adhere to their stated purpose,” as an August 2014 American Council of Trustees and Alumni report put it. The ACTA correctly lays partial blame for a decline in educational quality and an increase in costs on trustees, but ultimately identifies the problem as a “strategy of passive governance” and recommends greater voluntary engagement and scrupulosity within a system where trustees “are beholden to none.”

The article makes the situation sound like a vile cesspit but "a decline in educational quality", really? U.Chicago is a super-elite university, like HYPS. Undergraduates are at no risk of having instructors of as low a standard as at say, Berkeley.
That's the whole point of economic mobility, to measure it against income and inequality.

As has been pointed out, you can disallow direct pointers into the middle of things and use offsets instead. I'm curious though, because I don't know much about ARM, why function pointers can't be forced into even alignment? If it's 3rd party binary code you might have a problem, but if you control the compilation you can add NOP padding to get whatever alignment you want.

There's nothing that requires any particular alignment on x86/x64 either, but it's standard for most compilers because it makes everything run faster at minimal size cost.

Maybe you could get some other mustelid native to california instead? They wouldn't have 2500 years of domestication behind them, but e.g. stoats (short-tailed weasels) are sometimes kept as pets, and are native to california (and much of the northern hemisphere). Likewise the (much closer to ferret-sized) mink, various american mink subspecies are native to california.

The marten is an other california-native mustelid, though I don't know if they can be tamed easily.

One last option (that I know of) could be the tayra, it's apparently easy to tame and although it's not native to california its range goes up to mid-mexico. Could be more acceptable than invasive europe-originated ferrets.

Disclaimer: this comment includes a shameless plug to something I wrote. Read further only if you are not offended by this behavior. I am just trying to help others reading this post who like me think IPython might be a bit of an overkill at times but aren't really happy with the default python prompt. Now my comment ...

This Looks really nice and it does seem like it adds a lot to IPython. That said, I personally prefer working in a proper editor (rather than an approximation) when doing multi-line editing of commands on the prompt. So I wrote a small function to just invoke the editor with the lines in the current prompt 'buffer'[1]. This gives all the things like autocomplete and syntax-highlighting for free (albeit, when you are in the editor). Further more you may open up other buffers to refer to other code while editing the thing that you are on your prompt.

To see what I mean -- https://gist.github.com/lonetwin/5902720

Furthermore, what I wrote is a small enough file to copy as a .pythonrc (rather than pip install ...).

I agree with your point of view. Except, I disagree with your statement on oppression.
Russians are not oppressed in any case given. Oppressed are the non-Russians.

Most of the Ukrainian soldiers are Russian speaking.
Almost anywhere in the country you can find a Russian-taught school (yes, perhaps you need to drive some extra miles). But how many schools are there in Russia that teach Ukrainian? How many schools are there in Russia that teach Georgian? Close to zero; I won't be surprised if it actually is zero.
Russian drama TV shows get aired on Ukrainian television.
Even most of the ministers' native tongue is Russian.

So Russians are definitely not oppressed in Ukraine. It's a myth and an ongoing propaganda churned out by Putin's machine.

Meanwhile in Russia, you have public events such as "White Wagon", that perhaps resemble a KKK-style lynching, where Russian fascists pick a non-Russian passenger and lynch him in front of the police, with no consequences. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ag1K7fEjwNE Perhaps a single incident, but epitomizes the social divide in Russia, which is continuously fueled by Putin's propaganda machine. (No need to bring up Furguson. Two minuses don't make a plus.)

What about the case where ethnic minorities being denied to leave Russia to visit a UN convention? http://www.vedomosti.ru/politics/news/33685451/malym-zakryli... (sorry could not find an English article)

If you ask me, the war against Russian aggression is not only a fight against Russia, but it is also a fight against racism and discrimination. If you ask any Russian who choses to voice himself, Ukraine remains a safe haven for Russian speakers.

Russians are not being oppressed in Ukraine. Ukrainians and other ethnicities that are non-Russian are oppressed in Russia.

No, that's not the point. A society with almost no income inequality, where everyone makes almost exactly the same amount, would have nearly perfect "mobility" as measured by the correlation between the percentile of parent and child earnings (a few random dollars would move you a lot!). But it wouldn't be a "mobile" society in the sense we usually mean, where the poor can become rich (and vice versa) because there would be no poor and no rich!

That ending really galled me as well and I immediately thought of this old yarn:

There was an important job to be done and Everybody was sure that Somebody would do it.

Anybody could have done it, but Nobody did it.

Somebody got angry about that because it was Everybody's job.

Everybody thought that Anybody could do it, but Nobody realized that Everybody wouldn't do it.

It ended up that Everybody blamed Somebody when Nobody did what Anybody could have done

Sound waves are points of high pressure and points of low pressure. At each point of high pressure the pressure tends to spread uniformly in all directions. Likewise at points of low pressure there is sucking from all directions. Opposite directions cancel, i.e. orthogonal to the wave direction. All in all the sum of all points of pressure creates a moving wavefront. Which naturally bends around obstacles. The earth is just a very big obstacle.
The next step would be exchanging messages via NFC.

E.g. say for a p2p-twitter app, users A and B go into the exchange with their own versions of the global p2p-twitter feed, and exit the exchange with a merged version.

You could do federated, store-and-forward direct messaging, too. We already have a protocol for a very similar use-case: SMTP. :) Of course, with a sometimes-offline P2P mesh you usually don't know if any given hop decreases the distance to the destination.

You'd probably end up just merging all existing messages, so that everyone has everyone elses "email", and filter out the messages belonging to you via asymmetric encryption. So it's just an application of the above p2p-twitter thing. Public messages could be unencrypted.

I think some blockchain-based messaging systems work in a similar way, since there everybody has everybody elses messages per definition. Maybe a blockchain-based protocol is a good fit anyway, probably not though since I'm not sure how it would do the merge(A,B) function.

Yes - despite the bleating about unions from people who I can only assume have never had to fight exploitation and unfair practices, unions are one of the only ways that you as an employee can adequately defend yourself from bad employers AND bad employees.

Yes, software developers are generally paid well and if you can earn the respect of your peers, you're usually treated pretty well too. However, the industry is rife with horror stories about sexism, over-working, burnout, family disruption, harassment and abuse - not to mention the ridiculous burdens placed on developers who are also expected to be on call 24/7, manage the company's IT infrastructure, and generally do whatever the hell their superior demands at a moment's notice.

For a privileged segment of the industry, there is no problem - but that is by no means representative of the whole. Software mills churn out shitty software and treat their employees with the same respect they give to quality and professionalism.

Being part of a union gives you the numbers required to do meaningful damage to a company which doesn't treat you right. As always, a balance must be struck between the strength of the employer and the strength of the union(s), but for many in this industry, it's currently a losing battle. More and more demands every year, but fuck you if you want to be treated better.

Don't delude yourselves into thinking that being part of a union is only about money. If you ever have to work ridiculous hours, not see your kids or your partner, suffer from lack of sleep, do things outside of your job spec, and generally just feel like you're being taken advantage of, then the reason for this is that YOU ARE INTERCHANGEABLE. You're not a special little snowflake just because you're pretty darn up to date with the latest technical shizzle-wizzle you read about on HN. You may be technically very proficient, but then so are a lot of your peers, and there's no shortage of developers out there.

This may be a highly skilled industry, but it's also one with a very low barrier to entry and a shit-load of people producing OK work at a fraction of the cost of your salary. You're not immune to abuse just because you're good at what you do.

I can not confirm this at all.

Yes, initial setup can be a hassle, but after that, my experience is that deliverability mostly depends on the content you send, not the MTA or its configuration (you should have SPF, DKIM etc. in place, of course).

However, if you also need (semi-)automated bounce handling (as in, automatically unsubscribe hard bounces), then yes, you probably shouldn't roll that yourself. But I don't really consider that to be MTA-related stuff.

WARNING - the Grooveshark founders were Personally liable for the copyright infringement. This means its not just the Grooveshark company that has to pay the fine, but cofounders Tarantino and Greenberg will need to pay out of their own pockets.

From Pages 54-56 of the decision:

> Here, defendants Tarantino and Greenberg satisfy the criteria for corporate officer liability. Tarantino and Greenberg are the co-founders of Escape. Tarantino is the Chief Executive Officer and Greenberg is the Chief Technology Officer. Together, Tarantino and Greenberg manage all aspects of Escape’s business. They both directed the infringements at issue in the present litigation by: (1) creating a business model that was based upon the unlicensed sharing of copyright protected material; (2) sending written instructions to the entire company requiring employees to operate “seeding points” so that they could launch the Grooveshark P2P Network; (3) creating the Central Music Library and directing employees to upload files to the Library; (4) deciding to launch the Grooveshark Lite streaming service and instructing Escape employees to upload files for that service; and (5) personally uploading copyrighted protected material, Moreover, they both have a substantial equity interest in Groovershark and thus, directly benefit from the infringing activity.
I have long believed that capitalism is fundamentally flawed. It is a system that was designed when the world seemed endless. There were always new lands to discover (and exploit) and new markets to conquer. Capitalism is based on the idea that growth is always possible. Your investments will, on average, provide a return through increased value.

But, we now know that the Earth is essentially a closed system. There is a finite amount of energy available. What happens when a system based on constant growth runs out of room to grow?
