That depends on your threat model, that depends on what you're trying to achieve. There are very large engineering costs to using this type of solution, and in many cases, the benefits are much lesser.

The headline says it's incredibly rare, then the second paragraph says that while it's incredibly rare for civilians to not be indicted, it's normal for COPS to not get indicted. So in other words, business as usual, questionable racial implications, and an exploitative clickbaity headline.
This is especially true about carpooling with a stranger. Generally, carpooling now happens with neighbors/coworkers, which isn't exactly the same use-case as this.

So lyft for the burbs and uber for the cities, then? Burbs require non-professional drivers (i.e. daily commuters) to become drivers since ride request density isn't high enough to support professional drivers.

The problem is: "70% accuracy" doesn't mean much, since he's framed it like a classification problem. It's more like a regression problem.

Plus, the data used is only for a couple of days.

Ah my mistake then, I must be misunderstanding what lexical scoping is.
I don't know what behavior it "should" have. IMHO there's scope for different databases to implement things differently — otherwise there would be no room for innovation. The important thing is just that we understand precisely which guarantees we're getting and which we're not, so that we can write applications which behave correctly under a given isolation level. And that's the whole point of Hermitage.
awesome idea, certainly a taxi-medalion that was portable in nyc could be a godsend to people who don't want to do opposite side parking.

Also, places with a lot of vacation or second homes would be a candidate if they keep a second car/suv etc there.

I'd worry that there is not enough of the right kind of demand tho. Most people are not getting taxis during mid-day. And the people who work professionally have different needs for layout and might be too harsh on your gear.

There is a reason you cannot lease a pickup at any reasonable rate (unlike, say a BMW or Mercedes). The lack of use during the day is priced into the latter, and priced out of the former (would be used/abused with low and unpredictable residual).
The first thing I noticed from the video was how delicately people were using the device.

Not sure a majority of the developers I know would be able to be as dainty with something like this. Most type with heavy hands, beat up their mouse on a regular basis and have many keyboard shortcuts to reduce dev time in their Adobe programs.

For these people, using something which looks and is demonstrated as being very delicate, would not last long in their hands.

Having said that, how durable is this?
The Klan was also a product of its time and prevailing social mores, and yet no one would argue it was not racist.
The Lee Rigby inquest just happens to be coinciding with the government trying to push through their latest Snooper Charter of surveillance laws [1].

You don't even have to be particularly cynical to put two and two together...

It's pretty disgusting of the government to exploit Rigby's death by scapegoating the blame for not catching this guy - who was known to MI5 - on internet firms.

PS: Some claims neither need citation nor can possibly provide it. Are you seriously suggesting someone get a quote from David Cameron saying "I'm a sneaky bastard who's going to exploit this situation"?

EDIT: I just realised you may be referring to the "recruitment" part of that quote. Apparently MI5 tried to recruit one of the killers as an informant when he came back to England after being jailed in Kenya for trying to join a terrorist group. Here's a reference to the report [2] page 44-ish. It's all rumours as it's national security, ie. neither confirm nor deny, but there's usually no smoke without fire on these things...

Why not REST?
I discredit most people who continue the RISC/CISC debate to this day (As Intel forfeited in ~2006... all modern x86 processors are actually RISC processors. They are RISC at the lowest level, and just decode x86 instruction and translate them into Intel RISC microcode).

Then again, I don't think most popular "RISC" CPUs are very RISC like (Does that make me a RISC hipster?). While making things general purpose, there is no reason for ARM processors to be OoO, do branch prediction/speculative execution, or any more of these crazy things... it reduces efficiency in the long run.

Take a look at this for instance: http://chip-architect.com/news/2013_core_sizes_768.jpg ... an AMD CPU and ARM chip are virtually the same size at the same process node. I find it insane that one of our cores is a bit less than 1/5th of the size of a cortex A7, and can do more FLOPs than it. Then again, we have focused on doing that, but still.
I am VERY interested in what you are proposing, but I have no idea where to get more information. Can you please provide me with a couple of links you found useful in doing this?

Then again, one cannot expect all of any website's client devices to have a correctly calibrated displays. Unless you have control over entire stack (from your service hardware all the way to client displays), you have to start your design (graphical or otherwise) with the assumption that there will be differences in how your product is perceived by your clients.
If anyone involved is reading this -- please make the timer a bit more obvious. I opened the link, went back here, then made a quick wikipedia safari and when i got back to it timed out with no indication that i can restart it. :(

Curious, I've been hearing a lot lately about functional languages and immutability and wasn't quite sure how it worked. I agree with it in premise but it seems like all these immutable data structures introduce massive overhead.

Ask HN: Bored at my dev job. Don't know what to do
I've been working at this company as a developer for a few months right after graduating. Company is great, it has many perks, and people there are great. But I am just bored doing stuff that I do. At the end of the day I just come home and realize that I did absolutely nothing useful. I just want to feel alive or something when I am trying to solve something interesting and important, like applying some algorithm to solve some problem (like in uni assignments), or just believing in something that could make an impact on the world (like developing my hobby projects, but I haven't had any new ideas in months). I can't really quit, because I have no social skills to find a new job, especially something really good and interesting. I have no ideas on my own (if I had something I believed in, I would quit the next day). I am in UK now. And I believe I am a quite good developer, been developing since 13 years old. What should I do? Days just seem to pass so fast because of this boredom and monotony and it seems I am wasting my time doing nothing... I am 23. I don't care about money, I don't even care that much about working overtime, I have so much energy, I want to help change the world or make an impact on it, or at least have a slight chance doing that.

I tried 3 times on Firefox and it was always saying 4/5 correct. Then I tried on Chrome and I passed to the foobar terminal.
Okay, that was an exercise in frustration. By the third timeout i was pretty confident i had the answers right, but nothing happened. :(
I was reminded of that as well. This however seems that a voltage potential is conducted to the person standing on "the spot" so it would be interesting to see what that potential was relative to. If it were simply building up there would be occasional discharges, aka lightning zaps, when the air ionized. But given that there have not apparently been reports of bolts of lightning. There clearly is a grounding path somewhere, just a fairly high resistance one.

I like the idea of the pipes being charged. (picture of the big yellow building) if that were the case and you could install a heater to supply a massive amount of free electrons on a building across the way, you'd have the start of a very large 'tube' or 'valve' :-)

ThinkOrSwim has had a feature like this called ThinkAI for many years. Personally, I think it's not better than random.

Years of thinking and ruminating and learning (and investing) on the subject has left me solidly in the "random walk" camp. At any given point, a stock is equally as likely to go up or down. There's a small upward bias in the market (greater than inflation), and I reason that it's the premium offered over debt to take the higher risk of equity.

If you plot number of consecutive up-days and down-days, it's a normal distribution, skewed to the right, and with fat tails.

That said, my own belief and experience suggests that I can consistently press a small edge, which is why I gravitate towards options and futures (highly leveraged, high notional value). I don't think that would be possible without a "Portfolio Margin" account.

It is mainly aimed at people who need sensitivity and pixel-perfect controls in graphic design, 3D modeling or video editing. But it is built on an open platform so it can also be used for things like music.
#1 is hard, because it's so abstract. There's no specific problem domain. Suggestion: find a specific use case and build a customized, paid solution for that with an easy to understand value proposition. What problem are you trying to solve? Cron jobs are just an implementation.

Part of the stock's future price is based many features that are not in the dataset. In addition, a stock's current price is based on predictors which interact chaotically. Your predictor has to take into account that other predictors are watching in real-time and are trying to take advantage of it. It seems that attempts to predict the stock market make it random.
The messaging here is off. "Driver Destination" implies it has generalized applications -> be a Lyft driver where ever you are going. In practice, they need to get traction in the one big market for this: commuters. Better marketing will call it what it is: Lyft Commute - share a ride from home to work

(claiming the product name 'Commute' also stops Uber from using it)

No way dude!

Do the pills that make you lose weight actually work - long term? Sorry itengelhardt, I disagree. IMO, this is just another get-rich-quick scheme, like the pills I mentioned. Allured by the thought of losing weight, or being on the front page of Google is just that, an allure. It's the same mental trap the mythical siren used to drive sailors into rocks. A few of the respondents here cite content as killer, which I agree with, but there's also the element of bad ass customer experience that must be present. Treat your customer unlike the competition and try to author more content that the competition, and you'll rise to the top of your context, but it will take time. Good luck.
If I was going to assume this was an intentional effect, my first thought would be that it is meant to do something to the limited volume of air passing through the region, or to people as they pass through that region.

Random hypothesis: it's a huge ionized-air antimicrobial filter running the circumference of a corridor that runs under the area, such that you instantly get "sanitized" as you pass through that corridor before entering e.g. a clean-room hardware assembly area.

I don't know if his racism is the result of or related to his condition. However, even if it is, so what? Why exactly does that behavior get to be overlooked as though it doesn't have a real effect on people who suffer from it? Why does he get assistance to find a job while non-white people struggle to find work in tech?
"Weird guy makes an OS because God told him so" sounds less hilarious if you're aware of why the Perl programming language exists.
I think I can see where you are coming from on this, the main reason I disagree is that I do not think there is a good line between public and private enterprises. Whatever you do always ends up being a little bit of both, no matter which box it claims to be in.

Also, the state is in the business of managing externalities, especially those for which market information is lacking.

Public subsidies of private businesses can sometimes make a lot of sense from this perspective as they are in effect a form of investment by the actor that is able to take the biggest risks, which given the market runs on historic data, is very useful when someone wants to try something that is particularly novel.

Now it can be a bad investment, either by not being useful, or by driving out other useful things, but this is true of all investment decisions, whether or not it is the state making the investment.

Another thing is that other than possibly in communist states, I am not sure that any country has cut private business entirely out of public projects, and they only did it by banning private business entirely, so I was wondering what evidence there is that your suggestion is a good idea economically.
Wow! You clearly pay attention...

Not certain their use case of brush size has any relevance. Most graphics designers have a tablet and can easily set brush size to pressure control, or they just hold down the hot key that lets you adjust brush size by moving your mouse/pen so they already have analog input to brush size any time they want. Maybe some of the other professions they mention are more lacking in equipment, however. It is kind of weird talking about how hard it is to get to the brush size dialog, though, when no one uses that unless they are an amateur...
Neat puzzle. There are coding challenges if you manage to pass the crossword. Guessing it's some kind of broad net recruiting?

I currently work with postgres cluster with 16 shards on 4 machines. Overall database size is bigger than a few terabytes. Horizontal scaling with postgres is possible and it works more reliable than mongos. What's more, the exact data in mongo would require a few(dozens) times more disk space - so maybe scaling in mongo is easier, but the way i see it, mongo tries to solve problems that it actually creates.
Another coworker might well value having it to run errands. But yes, having a Lyft style driver use it for the day is less viable.
