You keep playing their games. I'm going to get busy looking for solutions with an actual possibility of success.
I'm sorry why would you want to do that? I mean what are you trying to learn specifically? If you're trying to learn coding then you should probably start with simpler easy stuff like HTML then Javascript then Java/C++...

Otherwise most books about "computing" in general are more outdated since this field evolves so fast.

I suspect that angst about "permanent poverty traps" is something we're going to have to get over.

For now, we're talking about unskilled and low-skilled jobs going away permanently, and there is an element of moral panic about uneducated, supposedly low-value-producing people getting leisure and government support.

Just wait until it happens to a middle-class or upper-middle-class group. THEN is will be all kinds of innovative to offer lifelong government assistance in the form of mincome or other such program.

And if you are worried about government spending and efficiency, wouldn't you rather see the TSA payroll supporting twice or three times as many people in a mincome program? It's better to be honest about a lack of productive jobs.
I doubt that in Garner case there was any doubt over any verifiable facts. The only things questionable were the feelings of the policemen involved (not following too close the case, though, might be wrong).

So it was never a case of what they did, but was it a crime.

I think that Cosby's fall from grace is better recent example if I read your point correctly
It appears that (at least with my searching) we don't have an issue on the RFC repo, so I opened one. https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/issues/518
Heck, I'm +o in there too, but they'd be crazy to put me on the core team. ;) Imagine waking up in the morning to find all their precious semicolons, vanished...

(Personally, I agree that the module system is Rust's weakest point. I have yet to come up with any concrete solution for fixing it; it's a legitimately challenging problem.)
"Their" referring to the Putin government.

You can't really use Sochi as an example. The Olympics are a very important international event and Russia wanted the good publicity. You'll also notice that Putin ordered the release of many political prisoners just in time for that event.
True, and I did spend some time looking. It's kinda sad, though, how our field seems to have devolved in the past 15 years. Startups today are much more corporate, more likely to be run by biz guys without appreciation for software, etc.

Here's a good litmus test: If they have an open floor plan they clearly don't care about developers.

If they BRAG about having an open floor plan-- and so many of them do-- they are terrible. Run away.

To be fair, I don't think anyone has any idea where that money is going (though maybe someone has an estimate for how much money is involved). Statements from pseudonymous site operators can't reasonably be trusted. If they were getting rich off of a site of questionable legality, they certainly wouldn't be advertising that fact.
Yea I totally agree. What I described requires no third-party hosted service, though. In my particular example of the cloud storage device, I use Pulse for file sync and GPG/rsync to upload archives to Amazon Glacier. None of that is closed source or involving any third-party.
What stops someone from creating fake users on TPB, though?
You can support that statement with facts about police in Ferguson

Not really. Ferguson represents a lot of things, but I don't think there's any evidence that it's part of some national crackdown on dissent. How would that even work?
It seems to me it's inference so the type will stay the same, just inferred.

Furthermore, if the prosecutor wished it, the grand jury would indict a ham sandwich.

The fact that he was not indicted shows that the prosecutor did not desire for him to be indicted. Given the aforementioned notoriety for throwing everything at the wall to see what sticks, the most likely explanations for a no-bill are (1) the charge can't actually be proven with admissible evidence or (2) the suspect is a cop or (3) the prosecution of the charge would embarrass or otherwise damage the state.

We can probably rule out #2. And by the ham sandwich rule, #1 is only rarely an impediment to indictment. So that leaves #3. The state probably fears what would go public in the discovery phase if they pressed the murder-for-hire charge, and that might affect its position for the other charge.

That should make all of us curious.

The only reason for why Romania joined the Axis, is because of the Molotov–Ribbentrop pact [1] between Hitler and Stalin from 1939, which amongst other things, for us it meant yielding control of Basarabia and Bucovina to the soviet union. This provided the perfect opportunity for the Romanian parliament to be dissolved and for a military dictatorship to seize power in Romania, which is the one responsible for joining the Axis.

But yeah, thanks for bringing that up - goes to show that what goes around comes around ;-)

Well, operators have the power to direct the discussion and silence people they disagree with, which kmc has done. Whether or not that's abuse is up to you but it does put them in a position of power among decision makers in the Rust world.
Less Wrong is a tentacular, all-encompassing organism that uses the word "rationalism" and "bayes theorem" in subtly overloaded senses as aesthetic ideals, life goals and in general as meliorative qualificatives.

It's one of the most polarizing and memetic thing to happen in popular philosophy and epistemology, and cultists typically end up moving into less sectarian areas of the internet pretty quickly.

LW has a culture that encourages and celebrates self-consciousness, and knowledge and correction of one's cognitive biases.

LW is a place where people have flame wars about epistemology. LW is a place where the participants of a given flame war adopt the logically correct conclusion reached through civilized and organised discussion.

LW is beautiful.

Let it go.
This is a sleezy and deceptive practice which is unexcused by "it makes us more money". Besides that, you're practically abusing HackerNews by using a title that is no less hyperbolic than upworthy.com or the Huffington Post. I've never before wished so much that I could downvote.
By the second metric, Google is not a "large" software system because all code must be reviewed by someone with context on it. (Single-developer projects and codebases don't get anywhere at Google...I tried, multiple times.)

I think a decent definition is "software where no one person has the whole system in her head", i.e. where reading existing code takes as least as much time as writing code, and any change may have unforeseen ramifications on the system as a whole.

Yes, I use Finder, since Puma. I also put in considerable hours using Windows Explorer. I personally find neither significantly better or worse than the other.
Holy sheep shit batman. This story freaks me out. I did not know this was a wide spread thing in Korea.

I had an argument with my wife about this subject years ago. She is from S. Korea and I am from the US. She had yelled at me because I left a fan on and fell asleep. When she got home from work and realized what happened she freaked out and told me I could die that way. At the time I remember thinking that she was absolutely crazy to believe this was possible. We argued for a long time about it and at the time I remember questioning her sanity, repeatedly. Eventually she dropped it and admitted it probably was wrong of her.

Every once in a while this strange superstitious stuff pops up with her. I love her deeply but it is not easy being married to a South Korean. :-)
Drawing a clear line is difficult, and the fact that many people are enraged with systemd for the opposite reason (systemd is too desktop-oriented, it has no place on servers) just proves that systemd does a lot to cater for different use cases (which in some case may even overlap), but I guess some features that may be useful in cloud settings are:

* service lifetime tracking, restarting them if they go down
* lots of resources-tracking knobs thanks to cgroups
* support for read-only root filesystem
* strong integration with containers: http://0pointer.net/blog/systemd-for-administrators-part-xxi.html
* many batteries included (no need to ship ntp on VMs thanks timesyncd, journald can replace syslogd for basic usage, networkd tries to do the right thing without any manual setup when run in a VM, etc.)

I'm sure there are more, these are just the few ones I could think off the top of my head.

I think it was Slicehost that pioneered this approach for VPS hosting companies quite a while ago, although it may also have been Linode as I really didn't become aware of them until Rackspace bought Slicehost and I had to migrate.

It was originally written and open sourced by Chris Davis of Orbitz. Presumably he either moved on to a new job, got bored with it, or it met his original design goals so he didn't feel the need to completely rewrite the backend just because the internet asked him to.
There are a lot of web-based tools that have C implementations, so fun projects may include writing pure-Rust implementations of these. Imagine, say, the CommonMark markdown parser (https://github.com/jgm/CommonMark) implemented in Rust. Making it as fast as the C version would be a challenging optimization problem, but I bet it's doable. :)
Interesting. So the point is not that the fan can kill you, but that:

1. Being in a completely sealed room when it's very hot outside can kill you,

2. Even though it may make you feel cooler, a fan won't really help in that situation, and

3. It may actually make the problem worse by increasing convection of the air and making it hotter.

I'd argue that calling that "fan death" is misleading, as it's really the heat that's causing the health concerns, not the fan. But it's good to keep in mind these kinds of concerns.
I've always read "a/b" as a and b referring to the same thing with different names.

Or technology coverage in Wired. And it has been that way since the first issue- it's always been a People Magazine type magazine.

When I got my first copy, stumbled on it at a news stand in harvard square on a trip to visit MIT, it was novel because at least it was talking about the internet.

But from that first issue, it's never been written by people who understood or gave a damn about technology.

the guys who developed bittorrent created a sync protocol. It's not open source though and people don't trust it. However this technique could lend itself to a bittorrent style protocol that continually updates.

For construction wage differences to matter, we have to be actually constructing. Spending billions of dollars on clearing red tape isn't due to construction wage differences. Of course we are paying the people implementing the red tape much better than the Chinese do, that is true. And we probably pay a lot more of them.

And please spare me the obvious black & white "oh, so you want no regulation, then?" I want reasonable levels. Not levels that were clearly designed to be punitive.

Legally all the telecoms have to provide a "backdoor" for law enforcement snooping, in theory when they have a warrant, which as it turns out is all to easy to get (e.g. FISA) see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calea which explains the law (sort of).
Kaspersky is interesting. I like their security labs but I am always aware their founder was FSB (KGB-trained) and has good relations with senior personnel (nomenklatura) there, so, while I don't think it's automatic that Kaspersky would do the Russ gov 'favors' it's not out of the question either however Wired has reported as such.

There was this article recently that being poor is a set of bad habits and someone commented "poor is a permanent condition, broke is temporary."

Stating it that way seems reasonable enough. I haven't read "Don't Sleep, There are Snakes" fully but from summaries I'm guessing the tribes refused to accept Western ways and were comfortable living the way that let them survive for thousands of years. Which is a reasonable thing to do if you could isolate yourself from the rest of humanity and competition.

This article about Northern native tribes https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8449134 says that they were far enough along building a settled society of farmers and villages when apocalypse struck and the survivors became roving nomads. Just like all our post-apocalypse movies!

I've always thought this would be an interesting business (side project?)

It would be like a whitelist of recruiters. You could go and enter your zip code and get a recruiter in your area. Maybe see various metrics as rated by employees.

Maybe to start you could let all recruiters sign up, and remove them as soon as a poor review comes in. Maybe set up some "honey pot" resumes and see if they spam them, and remove them that way too.
>I mean, ain't we talking about someone who ran a website where you could illegally buy drugs, guns and or even request an assination? Why should we be concerned by his case?

No, we aren't talking about that someone because Silk Road dealt exclusively in drugs and counterfeits. Weapons were banned from the site. Assassinations were banned from the site. Anything that was designed solely to inflict harm on humans was explicitly banned from the site, as per site rules.
