I totally agree that more people should tunnel traffic over Tor, it only helps everyone the more people that use Tor. If one person used Tor, it would suck. :)
Roughly what I was saying. I don't actually think all forms of analysis don't work, and I currently run a strategy I do think works. Note the strategy involves no web design or pretty colored boxes. I run it like this:

$ python compute_trades.py

Then I manually enter the results into my broker.

However, you are correct that I believe accurately communicating dubious information is nothing more than duping credible idiots with pretty web design.
Olympic press meaning an overhead press with significant layback. Pressing with layback involves enough chest to get you balanced development. It's also better for posture, joint health, abdominal and posterior chain strength, and requires one less piece of equipment than the bench press. As long as layback comes from the hips it's perfectly safe for your back. Working on hip flexor mobility should get most people to the point where they can perform it properly fairly quick.

A lot of the post feels like hyperbole to me - here's a successful and intelligent professor, telling people to simply do what they want to do, and not worry about 'competition' and finite games. He clarifies his views a little in the comments, relenting that one can still have healthy competition as long as it doesn't become 'war'-like.

Perhaps a more moderate summary of his message is "don't take the game too seriously, and know when to leave it". Or maybe this is just taking something that both the author and those he criticizes view as being binary, and viewing it as a real.
Correction: An earlier version of this post misidentified the programming language C as the operating system Unix.
I'm glad to hear that, as I didn't understand the pole analogy one bit.
True, but the other has no effect for people with an average fitness level. It lacks intensity.
Secure SSH by Disabling Password Logins
There WILL be information leak vulnerabilities created by breaching the barrier between app HTTP client contexts and browser client contexts. Apps can now make HTTP requests to servers and correlate them with HTTP requests made from a web browser, which was previously not possible. You don't know which apps you use are using HTTP vs HTTPS to phone home, either. This is a complete compromise of the HTTP privacy model... which I guess proves what should be obvious: that HTTP HAS no privacy model, and that we should be using HTTPS everywhere.
My anecdotal experience agrees with you. Also, having a decent network negates most issues "making the cut" (in the vast majority of cases).

Strongly agree with this. Scanning every document I owned, then discarding the originals (save for things like my birth certificate, social security card, etc.) was one of the most liberating things I have ever done.

Now, I scan every piece of paper I have collected over a month, then shred and recycle.
People who work out less than 6 minutes per day are all below average fitness level.
This is probably a good place to ask; I've wanted to build a language myself -- whats the best place to begin learning about parsers and the like? About a decade ago I asked this question and was told to read the "Dragon book" but I was far too young and lacked experience. Now I really want to get stuck into something outside of my day-to-day web stuff.
That's... true, I guess. What impact do you think it would have on gender ratios?
Yes it would be a good idea to spend time reading and practicing technique instead of going heavy for a while. The general population might have trouble with this but I believe the people reading here can handle it.
Then you've done it too hard. Ideally one should work-out at an intensity and volume (reps) that allows to be recovered after round about 48 hours. If the training is too hard compared to the fitness level you miss the point of supercompensation for the next training session. So, you have to build the ability to train hard up.
cat is probably safe. I would be concerned about the terminal you are running it in though.
Why not make exercise more fun instead? Play a sport, bike instead of car, etc...
Flatbuffers by Google – CapnProto alternative
One difference between using a surface (I have a Pro 2, not 3, but the ergonomics are presumably similar) and a traditional laptop is that, when, like the OP mentioned, it gets hot, it's not the bit lying flat on your lap that gets hot. Possibly that's one reason they allow it to get hotter than laptop/tablet users are used to.

I haven't completed the setup yet, but I'm already super impressed with the project. Providing a Vagrant so you can spool up a local instance of the app is just fantastic. And the docs. Wow, the docs. Directly from the docs:

"Because taiga is still a young project we consider it is currently in beta state."

Kudos to the team, because these docs are well ahead of many projects that are far more mature. Spotted a broken link here or there, but looking very good. Can't wait to try the product.
1 of each 3 extra hours is sleep. Also, you have time for shows and change after exercise. It is close to a wash.

But I bet exerciser years are better than non exerciser years, in old age.

Groovy Weekly #41
I've known Eric since the 1980's, from not long after he started the magazine (in 1984, hence his handle). One thing I always liked about respected about him is he did things on his own terms.

2600 really is a startup in some ways. It started in 1984 around the time of the decline of TAP, and from 1984 to 1986 was mimeographed. Finally by 1987 Eric could put together a magazine with a real cover. Then in the early-mid 1990s I began seeing it appearing at Barnes and Noble.

He did it on his terms, bootstrapped, counting pennies, along with the contributions of collaborators and writers of course. It grew and grew to where he didn't have to scribble down every dollar he spent in a notepad any more.

A lot of people here have the idea to find another programmer, build a prototype, maybe try to get exponential growth and then go find an angel with a whole pitch to the angel. Then to VC, and then some point the investors look how to make their investment liquid which means you either go public or get bought by a public company. Eric made exactly the magazine he wanted, did what he wanted, and just did it year after year as word spread and until he could have a nice little business, doing exactly what he wanted to do. To me it's more of a success stories than many of the B2B/SAAS golden parachutes I see. You're going to live a few decades and die, who wants to spend it pounding out code for Microsoft, or Oracle, or pleading with VC's to be the lead in your SAAS series A?

Dunning Kruger effect.

Stick your hand out a car window and not the force at say 70 mph. Now imagine it twice as fast. If your hand is not symmetrical you spin. I can do turns in the air with just my hands. A misplaced arm or leg is going to cause even more force and faster rate of turn.

Here's another worksheet with some symbolic integrals from the article: https://cloud.sagemath.com/projects/4a5f0542-5873-4eed-a85c-...

I wrote the det code in Sage that you're calling there (though in Sage-6.4 it'll likely be replaced by a call to FLINT). It computes det(A) in a very interesting way, which is asymptotically massively faster than Mathematica. To compute det(A), choose a random vector v and solve Ax = v using a p-adic lifting algorithm (the one in https://cs.uwaterloo.ca/~astorjoh/iml.html). One can prove --using Cramer's rule--that the lcm of the denominators of the entries of x will then be a divisor d of det(A), and with high probability one expects that det(A)/d is a tiny integer. One can then provably (using the Hadamard bound) find det(A) by working modulo a few additional primes and using the Chinese Remainder theorem.
No. I only had boxes with SATA drives. I don't see how you could get below 1ms latency with spinning disks. You would have to use in-memory queue to get this sort of latency. Secondly, I had Storm consuming off Kafka every millisecond, so in the worst case scenario a message would have to wait one millisecond in the queue anyway. Here's a great article about throughput/latency of Kafka https://engineering.linkedin.com/kafka/benchmarking-apache-k....

We also have one in China, in the Forbidden City. It was a present by certain western diplomat in 1700s/1800s. I'm pretty sure this kind of thing was actually quite popular back at that time.
33, never been very sentimental and I don't own much stuff, but there are those weird little things. Sitting here in my office is the manual film camera I used during photography class in college. I've been meaning to put on eBay. It hasn't been used in many years and I could always get another camera, if I wanted one. And I wouldn't even want this model again, if I were starting from scratch. But once it's gone, I'll never have this camera again. I don't know why that matters, but it somehow does.
The words "or similar" are what I hate most.

On the web site, cars are listed by class. I care about models, not classes. I see the example car, google it to determine if I like it, choose it, and then... show up at the place and find I'm given some horrid substitute that I don't know much about. Oh, it's a "full size sedan" and all such cars are interchangable? No, really, they are not.

It is super-important that I know exactly what I will end up driving. I'd like to know the options, trim level, and ideally even the color.

Best would probably be that I check a box for every acceptable model, with a minor discount if I check lots of boxes. (being non-picky makes my order easy to fulfill) This way I can exclude models that I hate, and I have plenty of time to research all the different choices in advance.

While I'm young (24), I'm putting my effort into cultivating that sort of attitude. Learning is something I love in general, and one great thing about our industry is how there is that you can learn and apply, and how applicable skills from things that aren't directly related actually are. Basically, what you've done is what I want to do, so thanks for the inspiration :)

When you have a relatively tiny budget, and an absolutely massive difficult system to build (requiring input from a wide range of specialists), there is no possible way to make significant progress without fostering a strong environment of community and collaboration. Integrating heterogenous components from a wide range of high-quality specialist communities (GAP, Pari, Maxima, etc.) as I did with Sage, brought many of these communities together, with them work toward a common goal. We had over 60 coding spring workshops in the last 10 years (http://wiki.sagemath.org/#Past_and_future_workshops). Also, we wrote an enormous amount of new code in Sage itself, likely more lines of code than all other math components put together.

Consider the audience. For an overweight person who only walks to their car and back the routine in the article could get them to a meager level of fitness. For someone who walks or bicycles for any of their transportation or for pleasure it won't have any effect. As a European this is most people I know.

Very good remark! Storm by default implements at-least-once semantics. If a bolt process executed an event and failed right away without acknowledging, an execution would get replayed (so you would buy/sell twice). However, there's a remedy! By sacrifacing latency you can have exactly-once-semantics, see Trident, Summingbird.
I tip my hat to you sir (or miss)! Never stop learning, and you'll go far. And if you don't want to go far, you'll have fun in the process.
The workout that the New York Times to presenting is something that anybody can do even if you are on the road and don't have access to a gym. The workout that you're referring to, has significantly more overhead, requires a gym, and certainly takes more than seven minutes out of each morning. With that said, as a fan of starting strength, I highly approve of your workout.

I'd argue that market economics does not 'require' destruction of the environment as the video suggests.

The initial success of Tesla cars, a growing demand of organic foods and sustainable farming and fishing methods proves their is a huge market which is dependent on mitigating environmental damage WHILE maintaining the consumer culture. We may have been slow on take-up but I think it is hard to argue that change is coming. It is also not opposed by the market forces of increased efficiency, as the video suggests, but rather driven by the values of producers and consumers, which the video seems to neglect to mention as a whole.

His second argument that the majority of jobs will be replaced by machine automation, is the view of a luddite. Over the past 100 years we've had many jobs be replaced by machine, and yet, we continue to add more and more people to the workforce in roles which could never have been imagined before. Traffic cops used to guide every intersection, and then the traffic light came to replace them all! Today, we don't wonder 'what happened to the traffic cop?', we don't suspect that thousands of people would be employed if only we didn't have traffic lights. People move on, learn new skills, create new things, unimaginable things.

I think the video contradicts itself on it's third point. If the system needs people to make money in order to continue to have the foot on the gas pedal, then how can class inequality be a driver or even a 'mathematical enevitablity'? Though the challenges of class are very real, he completely ignores the fact that poverty has been in decline, even as the global population has grown. http://www.worldbank.org/en/news/press-release/2013/04/17/re...
Camera gear is the only part of my collection of stuff that is growing, but—on the plus side of things—I actually make use of all five cameras that I own:

* Fuji medium format film rangefinder

* Leica M6 35mm film rangefinder

* Hasselblad 501CM medium format film SLR

* Fuji X-T1 SLR-style digital mirrorless

* Fuji X100s digital rangefinder

I can't imagine needing or wanting to buy another camera without paring down on my existing collection[1].

On another note, you should run a roll of film through it just for fun. I've been compiling a list of available types of film, along with darkrooms and film labs where you can have it developed here: http://www.ishootfilm.org

[1] Except for a 4x5 large format camera, which I've been drooling over for months. Still, they're sufficiently impractical that I've resisted the urge.

I have no issue with Knowledge Management the practice. I have seen instances where the phrase itself became a barrier to what was actually intended because it funneled thinking into a narrow band of software that specifically labeled itself as such. I have no such fears within my current organization but I feel that anything that has become/might be a buzzword should be met with suspicion (the phrase not the concept) so as to avoid the day where we really can't accurately describe what we mean by it anymore and we realize we're talking about nothing. </rant>

Redmine actually looks pretty cool. Sadly I need to try to push for something more user friendly. Anything I add needs to be usable for non-tech folks who hate learning new tools or else my day will vanish into tech support. I'm playing with Confluence right now and it seems promising, but I would really like to find a self-hosted open source alternative where we had the option of adding features/customizing.

Anyone have opinions on confluence or comparable apps/services?
It's a matter of semantics, but perhaps we can replace "competition" with "inspired by" (a peer) to do more. Personally, this mindset has helped me a lot.

"Users don't fix bugs in open source software."
The serious research-mathematics users of Sage often do fix bugs in Sage, and contribute fixes back. This is one reason a typical Sage release has well over 100 contributors, and we have had overall about 500 contributors to Sage (see http://trac.sagemath.org/). There's a huge difference in programming skills between typical research mathematics Sage users and OpenOffice users, because all such Sage users are programmers, and the language they use to interact with Sage is the language it is mostly written in. Yes, Sage has subcomponents in other languages, but an enormous amount -- maybe the majority by now -- of Sage is in Python and Cython. Also, successful mathematicians are extremely intense and dogged in pursuing something they get passionate about. Often they will devote a decade or more to attacking a problem, so spending a few days learning Cython (say) and debugging code is relatively little time in comparison to the overall time they devote to a problem. Anyway, I'm glad that when I started Sage I didn't believe the statement "Users don't fix bugs in open source software" applies universally. I didn't know either way, so I waited to see, and was genuinely surprised at how false that statement actually is in the case of Sage.
Think of FFT like music notation - a separation into notes, dynamics, and tempo.

Alexander Graham Bell came up with the idea of increasing the capacity of telegraph lines by combining several 'dit-da-dit' streams at different pitches. He called it a 'harmonic telegraph'. The idea was that a mechanical arrangement of reeds tuned to different pitches would pluck out each stream of data. This insight eventually led to the invention of the telephone.

Finally, if 'orthogonal basis set' is difficult to understand, think of giving someone 'left/right' driving directions. An FFT would then (roughly) be the mathematical equivalent of 'driving directions' for a clip of music or speech.
One thing I don't fathom is why FT is always explained in terms of circles? For me it was always confusing this way; the concept was much more graspable when visualized in the terms superposition of sinusoidal waves.
I know nothing about cars, but I heard from someone who worked there that for some parts, they now have to send half of them back to Volkswagen because they don't meet specifications anymore

This is a good thing. In 1992, it was my job, as a Porsche customer, to find all of those bad parts. :-P These days the factory does a better job catching the problems before they escape the building.
What the New York City Ebola Patient Was Doing Before He Was Hospitalized
1) Porsche's investment did not impact the larger financial markets in any way. Porsche's investment impacted VW stock and nothing else (I believe Porsche was 100% privately owned at that time)

2) Porsche's actions were like a hedge fund because they designed a financial situation where they couldn't lose (up until the financial collapse cut off their liquidity). Had the markets not collapsed and Porsche had been able to borrow like it could in 2007 they would've owned VW, the issue is that the markets collapsed and massive lending restrictions were imposed requiring Porsche to payback loans instead of roll them over. In the end they turned to VW to pay back the loan. Had that external event not impacted the lending environment Porsche would've acquired VW and subsidized their cost through financial participants shorting VW stock.

I'm not sure what you originally said, but think it was a comment I meant to respond to.

It's myopic to say something is too dangerous or doesn't produce anything and shouldn't be done. Being free to explore the limits is kind of what makes us human. Skydiving by itself used to be incredibly dangerous and something only a few thousand could do. Along came a bright engineer named Bill Booth that invented a pin that didn't stick, reducing container locks, a quick release and tandem jumps. Now millions of tandem jumps are done world wide and the incidents per jump are way lower.

When I started BASE jumping 15 years ago and saw a wingsuit jump in person my mind raced. I wondered if some day we'd get to the point you could fly through the trees like a bird/pod race combo. Now that's pretty routine and the videos on YouTube get millions of views. That came after years of dedication and design.

I know skydivers and base jumpers that live in a van, and others that live in huge houses on the California coast. It attracts all walks of life. I didn't get the hate in your original post. I tend to agree with most of the others :)
Everything he says is true, but boy no one wants to hear it. So much of modern identity is tied up in envy together with empathy.

Nowadays the way to demonstrate you are a good person is to express sympathy and empathy for various approved groups. You can even express some hostility towards your own group to show how noble and virtuous you are. Unfortunately, in the west, this narrative is deeply flawed - the most of the approved groups only suffer relative to others. They don't suffer absolutely at all.

If you give up envy, you take away people's ability to show what noble souls they are.
