NAT doesn't terminate and recreate connections. It modifies packet headers and forwards them.

Modifying headers in order to facilitate transit over a network is one thing, modifying the L7 payload is another.
Thanks. Yes, I somewhat agree with your clarification.

And to further your point, it appears this guy (https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/2k38ta/my_wallet_w...) just got his coins stolen by using blockchain.info over TOR.

However, I still believe nothing is fundamentally broken. Any important protocol should be using SSL - especially when operating over TOR. Lapses like this are still simply user error.
I love how this comment appears every time there's an app announcement here. Face it, if you want the earliest access to new mobile apps, Android is the wrong platform.

My favorite Apple Maps stupidity, as of a couple of years ago: look up "hospital" while driving northbound on I-405 into Bellevue, WA, and it will give you a massive list of every vet clinic and animal hospital in the area. The nearest actual hospital will be buried in the list somewhere.

Hopefully they've put some new people on this product, post-Scott Forstall. If it's still that badly broken, then it's about time for lawyers to get involved.
Some reasons why “Modern C++” adopted generic programming
Why do people think that BNW represents a dystopia? The whole point of the work is that it is in fact a utopia or as close as you can get. The reason for this is to undermine the notion that one should even want to organize a society around happiness in the first place (undermining one of the central assumptions of nearly 2500 years of western political philosophy). To this end I think Huxley succeeds brilliantly. Furthermore he raises far deeper questions of what it means to be human in ways that Orwell simply does not address. Finally the fact that many identify his depiction of the future as dystopian is a good sign that he successfully gets readers to reevaluate their own thinking about what it means to live a fulfilling life, since I think almost all of us here would agree that the world Huxley depicts is in some ways thoroughly empty of any real fulfillment or achievement.

There is no consipiracy, it's just powerful people excercise their influence through the powerful channels. It's no difference than the culture revolution happened in Chian's 1970's. The difference is just the influence is excercised in rather different form and manners.
What about freelancing ? Try and connect with people you know who might be looking for a developer like him. If he knows Python/Django, I am sure there are lot of freelance opportunities. Also ask him to post in the Monthly HN thread of freelancers.
Here's a scary thought: How do we know every ISP isn't doing this, it would be undetectable if they only injected these on certain domains e.g. facebook, google. However I don't see how much more tracking ability that would grant over IP tracking.
I would suggest he start contributing to open source. Write a fea utility libraries or even a few general purpose applications. Being able to point people to a github with work to show off some skills can be integral to how employers view your technical aptitude.
>"That's alright though, when you can trust the state to properly monitor and regulate ethical conduct, though it doesn't look like we'll be quite so lucky here."

Please provide an example of an industry whose regulator has performed this task well (or a list of regulators if you can find more than one), as I am not familiar with any in North America (my area of residence and familiarity).

>"Regulatory capture is one of the biggest problems in the government today, but the solution isn't decreasing the power of the government over companies, it's decreasing the power of companies over the government."

Why is the former solution inferior to the latter? I believe that the first solution is the only solution because of problems such as the aformentioned regulatory capture, as well as public choice, and various resource allocation (market-related) reasons. Please explain why I am mistaken. If you would like clarification with respect to any of my reasoning, let me know, and I can show my work (but I don't want to bore you unnecessarily).

To be fair, Cursive only had one more vote than Vim, so there's not much in it. Cursive is actually technically still in beta although it's pretty stable now - the official v1 release should be in a couple of months I think.
That's the point. The web is completely broken for the use case of "browsing the web". We need a replacement for the web, and for web browsers, to do fill that use case again that the web used to fill.
> No such AI exists today

Do you have any reasoning to back up this assertion?

I see quite a number of self-modifying systems that are unintelligible to humans, unaccountable to others, and that exert significant control over the larger world. Whether these systems qualify as 'AI' seems like a question of how developed they are, and that seems like just a matter of time and available resources.

Yeah, that's what he's trying to do, but at least here in Spain both Python and MongoDB are still considered as 'young technologies for startups' that aren't usually seen in the enterprise or in the normal freelance jobs.

Anyway, thanks for the tip about the Monthly HN thread - he will definitely post there :)
I'm guessing they intended to go after devices sold as FT232s with the FTDI logo on them. If there's collateral damage, that could be a problem.

Then again, the users _did_ agree to let that happen in the clickwrap agreement, so it's still uncertain.

Either way, I'm readying the popcorn. This should be interesting.

Would love to have questions like this on Omniref for other code readers. VALUE is in fact a pointer, ie a raw integer, which is pass by value in C, so it's fine to return.
For layout purposes, have you seen Docco[1] based on Rocco[2]? Coffeescript uses this[3] and the documentation looks very similar. The longform comments are a style choice in this case, as these packages just pull comments from the code.

Literate style code[4] is another example of comments being a primary actor in programming.

If having long comments inline is a problem, most text editors could hypothetically be extended to have automatically collapsed/collapsible comments after the first line.

The great thing is that none of what you said applies to a drug trafficking charge because DPR and SR didn't engage in drug trafficking. The environment was created as a marketplace for illicit drug sales but SR didn't produce/manufacture/distribute/store/sell any drugs.

My comparison to eBay is valid because just like ebay, there are sellers that sell in the market. EBay doesn't sell product. People might say "I bought it off eBay" but they aren't actually buying product FROM eBay. This differs from Amazon where the shipments are labeled (fulfillment by Amazon).

I also doubt he could be charge under the RICO statute except the prosecution may be able to pull that one off if they can somehow twist the murder charges to resemble something covered under RICO.

Definitely game changing. The barrier to move from Unity to Unreal is really low if this works out. Still best to do C++ where possible but this opens up Unreal drastically.
Why do you bring this up? Is this more ideal? I thought writing inline css was an accepted awful thing to do. Or is that just a simplification for new developers? Why do you benefit from doing this?
"Chinese-style CEO" version sounds like corporate brainwashing to me (I'm Russian American).

Thank you for the explanation.
But why? Why not directly compile it by implementing an LLVM frontend? And if you're going to transpile like this, I would assume translating to Java would be easier, since the languages are really similar. The JVM is, depending on task, as much as four times faster than Mono, and that's the official Mono, not Unity's stagnated one.

If you look at the example on Github, it looks exactly the same as the GP with inline styles, except it uses data params.

GP is saying that there is next to no benefit to the approach proposed in this project compared to just using [the ugly and terrible] inline CSS.

It is not that I believe that Google and Eric Schmidt along with the government are part of some kind of conspiracy. And I do acknowledge that someone like Assange probably is much more paranoid than he should be.

It is simply that we should not voluntarily give so much power to a single company.

A shame the point needs to be repeatedly made. A five minute foray into the wasteland that is twitch chat will show some pretty stark differences between how men and women become targets for trolling and vitriol.

While some of the concerns of the whole gamergate mess were perhaps reasonable at some point in time, the whole thing has disappeared under a huge number of people who see their any supposed righteousness as license to indulge in the pettiest of attacks that aligns them with segments of society I'd foolishly thought we'd largely left behind.

Seriously, if you're looking for some injustices in the world to help make your life meaningful, you can do a hell of a lot better than "ethics in video game journalism", vitriolic element or no.
The NY Times published a correct description of PRISM very shortly after Greenwald's published his insane misread. http://mobile.nytimes.com/2013/06/08/technology/tech-compani...

This description matches the declassified PRISM documents, the description in Snowden's leaked slides, US law, the miniscule price tag in Snowden's slides, and the description of a specific PRISM integration I heard from one of the implementers (possibly one interviewed in the nytimes story).

The Human Brain Project is a basic science endeavor, it's not directly related to AGI research.

In principle, there are two directions AGI work is going: one is the brain emulation approach, the other is aiming at creating a synthetic mind from scratch. Obviously, this is a spectrum with two extreme ends, but compared to overall AI work being performed by our civilization not a lot of people are working on this at all (which is surprising considering the implications of even a moderate success).

A lot of the brain simulation and mapping projects concern themselves not with running an actual mind on silicon. Instead, they are fundamental science projects with goals like modeling neuronal behavior or helping out in pharmaceutical research. Even the "neuron-like" processors that are starting to come out right now are not intended for AGI.
I get what you're both saying and appreciate both perspectives. To me aepearson is hitting on an systemic flaw in our current culture: we're obsessed with work. Our priorities go something like 1) work, 2) money, 3) work, 4) more money, 5) our kids, 6) marriage, 7) work and money... We're completely out of whack according to a certain system of values which it sounds like I and aepearson share.

For people like me, my priorities go as follows: 1) marriage, 2) kids, 3) work only as much as necessary to pay bills, save for retirement and rainy days. For someone with my priorities, your life sounds like hell--though I give you props for making the choices you are consciously--and there's literally no amount of money which would make rearranging my priorities make sense to me.

Like you I will start a business someday, but when I do it will be a slower burn operating within the constraints of my personal priorities.

It's challenging, but I also apply my same set of priorities in my work life. I don't pursue or accept jobs which will require missing dinner time, which will wipe out my weekends, which will consume me and my life. Life is about so much more than work. It's about time spent with the people you love, doing meaningful things. Someday we'll all die, and I don't want to look back and see just a whole shit load of hours worked (on my own businesses or for others).

I don't fault you for how you're living though. As long as it works for you, your wife, and your family, keep at it. Everyone's different, and has different ideas of what makes a "good life."

I will say that I personally find it frustrating how much pressure there is out there these days to work more for less. I ascribe it to too many people being willing to let work consume them and making it harder on the rest of us who would rather maintain a strict separation of work from home life, working hard for the amount of time we've agreed to work, but otherwise being free to spend the rest of our time as we see fit.

>> That April, $32,300 went to the National Republican Senatorial Committee. A month later the same amount, $32,300, headed off to the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee. Why Schmidt was donating exactly the same amount of money to both parties is a $64,600 question.
"If not for the eugenics, genetics and soma, it sounds like a nice place to live! Freer sex, freer entertainment, more automation, more leisure... It's radical, certainly, but not in a bad way"

Well, it's all fun and games if you happen to win the genetic dice roll and end up as an Alpha. I imagine it's considerably less fun if you're a Gamma.

More to the point, the world in Brave New World isn't dystopian on account of torture suffered, atrocities committed, or free expression squelched, a la 1984. The real horror of Brave New World is the complete reduction of the human race to a soulless, animalistic state. Or a robotic state, if you prefer that sort of analogy.

The humanity we encounter in Brave New World is a dead end: artistically, culturally, technologically, philosophically, and evolutionarily. This humanity will never reach beyond its comfort zone to achieve anything else. It will never colonize the solar system, or explore the stars. It will never make brilliant art, or profound discoveries. It will never question anything, and because it will never question anything, it will never improve itself. If you believe that humanity's crown jewel is its capacity for self-improvement and progress, then the world in Brave New World is a severely bleak one. It is a vision of the human race infantilized, neutered, and forever trapped in that infant state. (If there are any ihyperintelligent beings out there, bent on conquering Earth and rendering humanity a null threat, Brave New World reads like a perfect playbook).

On a visceral level, sure, I suppose I'd rather live in Huxley's dystopia than in Orwell's. That doesn't make Huxley's vision any less scary for me. Big Brother puts us in a cage; Huxley's society convinces us the cage doesn't exist.

From the standpoint of literary merit, 1984 is the superior book. But that's a whole different discussion, and I digress.
As this requires reassembling the HTTP request to add the additional header, this probably introduces extra latency too.

Fortunately https is becoming more pervasive which bypasses this and any other transparent proxies.
ECHELON was an open secret much earlier and the European Paiament had written reports on it in the 1990s.

People claiming it was conspiracy theory were fucking idiots given all the reputable evidence. The stuff about Boeing and McDonnal Douglas was late 1999 / early 2000.
Thanks. That sounds pretty reasonable for a generator, considering.
Not that I necessarily doubt the veracity of this claim but you should probably point to a better looking graphic than that. Where did you even find it?
On my Verizon Moto X (Android), the header is not visible if I use the Chrome feature "Reduce data usage", but it is visible if I disable that feature or, ironically, use Incognito mode.

Is interesting to read other people's suppositions on this stuff. In a similar vein, I tend to think of Facebook as being just another government agency, but Google has always been much more curious. Google seems to have ambition beyond getting close to power, Google has since the very earliest days seemed that it is interested in being a power in and of itself. The International Olympic Committee has this unusual designation of being a non-geographical state-like entity. I suspect Google would also like that designation.

Bizarre design. Pretty tourist pics and an Apple sign-in. Which Lastpass fills in anyway, so heck, I sign in. And then I am looking at "frosted glass" rectangle (Yosemite desktop effect I assume) that covers the pretty pics and asks if I have a small business.

No, I do not. But there is no way to say that. Nothing to explain what this page would do for me if I did, and nothing to tell me what use it is (or isn't) since I don't. No back-story at all. Why did I sign in?
I'm attracting a lot of downvotes, and I feel like people think I'm supporting Verizon. I agree with you in that I think they're being scummy, but I guess I was just saying that when you ask "How can they discriminate like that?" the answer is that lots of scummy things aren't illegal. I agree it might be nice to see much stronger privacy laws in this area, but they don't exist yet and that's most of what I was trying to say. I think I thought you were saying that you thought it was illegal ("isn't there a law...") whereas you were really just saying you thought it should be illegal.

Catholic Charities is definitely the biggest source of charitable work in the US and the majority of their budget comes from the US Government. 62% in 2010. There's also CRS (international), hospitals, Society of Saint Vincent de Paul (international) etc. all of which are much smaller.
I'm not convinced that 56 is that old for companies, especially large ones. I'm not sure this is anything more than the current financial problems that Spain is experiencing. There is 25% unemployment and many banks have purportedly been teetering on collapse. There simply may not be jobs available for him in Spain, unfortunately.

His best bet is to move around in the EU, and go to a country that is willing to hire him. Place like UK, France are likely doing better than Spain is, and will probably have more jobs.
This will be so awesome.
Inline CSS isn't any more awful than any other meaningless presentational markup.

Why use inline CSS? Because it's simpler and obvious. The proposed hack has no upsides: it isn't any more accessible, isn't any more maintainable, and it isn't any more performant (quite the opposite).

To me it's in the same category as replacing `<font color=red>` with `<span class=red>`, because "font is bad".
