Ironically, it seems you're trying to sympathize with women by saying they're not inanimate objects to bounce balls off of, but you're still denying them autonomy.

When women want attention, they dress attractively. When they don't want attention, they dress casually. It's just like birds. Ever wonder why they call it the birds and the bees? If you're a guy and you hit on women in sweatpants, you'll most likely fail, b/c those women are not signalling their availability and interest.

And before someone goes all "women should be able to dress however they want and not get raped," consider that I'm not advocating rape. I'm pointing out that the previous poster asked "attractive" women for their phone numbers, not every woman. Logically, this implies that he was asking women who were seeking attraction by dressing attractively and presenting themselves as available and seeking mates, just like birds who sing to signal their availability.

The reason everyone confuses attractiveness is that our media present it as a thing that you have or don't. "Movie stars have it, computer nerds don't." But the real truth is that attractiveness is something you do. When you want to "get out there," to signal your availability and interest in mating, you do attractiveness. It doesn't matter how fat or pimply you are: You adorn yourself, you clean yourself, wear fancy clothes, you grab attention, you impress people, try hairstyles. Once you're married, reproducing, dropping kids off in a minivan on Saturday morning, you wear sweatpants and other casual clothes and no one (except social retards, of which there are unfortunately plenty) hits on you. Or else if you miss that egoistic feeling of being attractive, you dress up a little bit and reject all the people that hit on you.

This is how it works. It's just one step advanced from non-speaking mammals. Political correctness is just an attempt to cover up the realities that not everyone understands, just like religion and the Republican party are shorthand behaviors/scripts for people to follow when they don't know exactly what to do.

Ask HN: What happened to the HackerNode iOS App?
I've had the app for a while, but yesterday noticed it was deleted from my device. Attempting to find it in the iTunes store and it seems to have vanished https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/hackernode/id473882597

Was it removed from anyone else's device? Is this app dead? Any one know of any alternatives?
That's a 12 hour window for mice. Humans have a slower metabolism than mice, so I suspect that to get a similar effect we'd have to use a longer time period.

Some people claim that a 24 hour fast once a week does wonders for them. It's all just anecdotes at this point though.

The stakes are different. If pushing an error to production means that an email doesn't go out or a $500 sale goes through, you have limited motivation, as the benefit of pushing out code fast is greater than pushing it out right.

If you have a billion dollar program where a failure will kill people and create a political storm that will get your management chain fired or sidelined, you can justify spending $100M on the process (ie lots of people + less ability) to push quality.
Love the highly upvoted comments about how Apple can never release a watch or a 6 inch iPhone due to the inherent limitations of iOS.
> do people with such jobs deal exceptionally well with rejection?

Yes. Martin Seligman has done research (or at least reported the reasearch) on this and there is a full chapter about people doing cold calls in his "Learned Optimism" book.
That's an interesting point that shouldn't be lost in the discussion. Men who read comics have long been ridiculed by the mainstream. Even the Big Bang Theory, which inspired the blog authors' trip to the comic store, plays to that stereotype of it being an activity for the socially inept. And now, 20 years later, the industry doesn't serve any other market and is being criticized for it. Interesting.
Sure. Anyone with the most basic stats knowledge knows that if you dig long enough you'll find random correlations. That's solved by demanding evidence be repeatable rather than requiring the evidence fit into a nice theory.
I'm interested in the games he listed as well. I know the first one (robot prospector) is probably SteamWorld Dig. Not certain about the others.
Maintained in a single repository and maintained as a single blob of code is two different things. Can i get the systemd repository to hand over just udev as a tarball, and then compile it? Or do i have to grab the whole of systemd, extract udev from that, and then attempt to compile?

for example XFCE is maintained in a single repository, but each part is released on their own.
You are correct. Total languages are not Turing complete.

However, in the case of safety-critical software, we don't actually follow that rule perfectly. We usually have one or more main loops that never terminates, but everything called from there does terminate.

In languages that enforce totality, like Agda (which is not suitable for most safety-critical programming), you can either selectively disable termination checking on the main function, or you can recurse over a large number. I'm partial to 99999999999999999.

You missed his point. Once he saw what he was doing from his child's perspective, he was uncomfortable with it. Note that this is distinct from being uncomfortable with his child seeing what he is doing.

I had a similar reaction after not playing many games during grad school, which was 2003 - 2010. After graduating, I picked up a PS3. Some games it wasn't too much of an issue (such as Mass Effect), but in others, it was startling (such as Bioshock Infinite).

It always surprises me when people say this. If somebody forced all fishermen to only sail in circles, catch fish with their tongues and drink a liter of sulfuric acid every morning - they would be up in arms. Sure they're not forced to be fishermen, but you can't blame them for caring.
My daughter is seven, and she comes with me to the comic book shop several times a month. She has 2-3 comics a week on her pull list -- Scooby Doo, Scooby Doo Team-Up, Adventure Time, Regular Show, Tiny Titans (until it goes back on hiatus again), My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic. We just got into an arguement the other day -- I am NOT buying two copies of Unbeatable Squirrel-Girl a month, she can just borrow mine. Get yourself a copy of the Diamond catalog (it's right there in the store, or you can normally find the solicits on the publisher's websites -- look for Boom and IDW especially, in addition to the Big Two), find stuff your daughter might like, and tell the store to order it for you. Or go to a different comic book store, if they won't. I've been going to the same comic book shop for years now, even though there's five shops closer (I drive by at least one comic book shop on the way to my regular shop), because they'll order what I want, and they even let me know when there's things they think she might want to read.
This is true, however I think this again conflates two things: the relational model and the "tabular" data layout. I gather that databases like Neo4j obtain constant time traversal by storing each node's list of "relationships" at the same location as the node itself. We might be able to generalize this to a relational database, where every row in the database is stored together with the list of addresses of all other rows which reference it via a foreign key.
How I Turned My Idea into a Product
I'm very well aware of the difference of Unix and Linux. I even smiled slighty as he also could just have claimed Linux to not be Unix and that would have been undisputable.

I actually don't know what you mean with "criticism of UNIX traditionalists for years" in regards to the Linux kernel and the userland.

I know of Linus' disregard of POSIX where it's crappy or doesn't make any sense anymore in his opinion but that can't extend to the userland as Linus doesn't do userland.

Some clarification or links to said criticism would be welcome.

I don't see how this first item -- "Ban iOS developers from ever speaking about the developer agreement" -- is true. First, I don't see any such clause; second, you're allowed to discuss anything that's publicly available, and you can read the agreement without signing it as part of the developer program application process, so the agreement is publicly available and thus can be discussed. You're welcome.

"Require Apple to approve every security update, which means that unaddressed security bugs could linger and leave users at risk."

Yes, the App Store approval process could cause lingering security problems. In practice, Android -- which has no such requirements -- is festooned with malware and iOS is not. So let's protest a hypothetical problem caused by a solution to a real problem.

Apple also requires that your code with signed and checksummed before installation. How evil!

"Wrap every app in the Apple store with unnecessary DRM, which limits what users can do with their apps even if the code is published as free software."

How is it "unnecessary"? It's how the App Store works. It's what allows Apple to remotely disable an app that turns out to be malicious (and which has slipped through the approval process). It's part of the iOS value proposition -- pay us extra to give you a device that won't screw you.
Yeah, I was reading "that" thread from last July. It was depressing that pf hasn't really moved forward since 2009.

Honest question, if you are interested in freedoms why not develop for Android? You know what you are getting yourself into when you devote your time developing for a closed system and culture like Apple's.
All those rules add up to: "avoiding writing anything complicated or general purpose in the shell language that is intended to be used by any user over any set of files; stick to handling known input materials which are closely associated with the script."
Exposure to your fears is a pretty standard method out of the wide spectrum of cognitive-behavioural-therapy tools. Of course, preparation for that is the most important part of it. AFAIK, it works for about a third to half of the patients, depending on what measurement for success you apply.
That's the problem with these dialogues. Often left-leaning types see them as justification for censorship and shaming when the real issue is market penetration and audience.

I can walk my son through the girly section of 'toys r us' and see nothing but men represented as effeminate "prince" types who's only main motivation in life is finding a princess. The tumbler social justice warriors don't care about that, being mostly female, it doesn't affect them and they probably don't even notice. That doesn't mean we need more manly men in that section, it just means that certain audiences want certain things. Gender is an audience. Its weird that we pretend gender doesn't exist and how it affects us and our fiction consuming habits.

>We need more articles like this helping people realize what a "normal" comic shop could look like.

Its probably a little too late for that. The shops are folding due to digital distribution and they've somehow become even more manboy friendly as the hardcore and die-hards dictate demand. This is like saying that there aren't enough gay-friendly adult bookstores in your town. Um, sure, but the gays are just using the web like normal people. Or that the vinyl record store only has hipster stuff and not the new Kanye. Normal people are using itunes and google play.

If anything, the retail experience for things that can be gotten online easier is going to be skewed to a weird demographic. The great thing is that online and digital distribution lowers the barrier to entry and even with these low barriers, feminist comics are low on the demand side. Turns out a lot of girls just don't give a shit what activists tell them to do, which I think is wonderful. Girls can buy the girliest visual novel on steam then load up the most macho FPS game afterwards. Let them choose. Hand wringing and guilt trips are totally optional.

except years of training around battery charging that says not to charge a half (or 3/4) full battery.

Also do IF, and I'm glad someone repped Martin Berkhan for the work he's done trying to dispel some of the myth associated with extended fasting. For anyone who gives a shit, there are several articles on http://www.leangains.com/ that show that it's not just the fact that it's harder to overeat when you have a limited feeding window -- but that there are hormonal effects elicited from periods of fasting that can be leveraged to enhance not only your physique, but your overall health.
No, not if the comics stay true to the mythology, anyway. Norse mythology is pretty similar to Greek. The Gods aren't really heroes; they are Gods. They lack the "hero" in "superhero".

The Marvel depiction of Loki is not as one-dimensional as that of Lex Luthor, for example, but the underlying myths actually depicts him a bit more nuanced still. And while the Gods are generally good, they are also at times foolish, funny and arrogant.
I think you're missing the point: his daughter knows those characters through pop culture. She wants to read those comics. But the art for those comics is clearly telling her: you are not our audience. And this is most of the store.

The male characters are male power fantasies, and appeal to his son. But the female characters are not female power fantasies, meant to appeal to women. They are male idealized-woman fantasies, and do not appeal to his daughter. That is what he realized.

It's possible (probable) that he had developed a fear of rejection due to his divorce, but the very fact that he had a divorce indicates that he had been able to date and marry in the first place (to a poor choice, no doubt). I'm sure that his approach was able to return him to where he was before, and perhaps improve him, but I wonder if it would be any good for someone with a deep-seated fear of rejection, or if it might not make things worse (perhaps due to a few scenarios ending poorly, or the subject finding himself unable to complete even the simplest ones, and retreating further into himself).
Steam runs mostly upstream vetted content, i.e. it's identical to the app store. If malicious code makes it through there, everyone is varying degrees of boned, sandboxes be damned. Yeah, it has a web browser, but 99% of the time, that browser is pointed at https://something.steampowered.com.

It's not like an average browser like Chrome where your main use case is running random code from random domains made by random people.

Besides, external apps are non-responsive to the question of whether the tradeoff gained by Apple's variant of sandboxing (where there are certain things you are not ever allowed to do, even if they are integral to the primary purpose of your software) is really worth preventing a limited class of issues?

App store requirements don't stop the user from downloading malware outside of the store. They do stop the user from doing certain things outright, and so push the user outside of the store, and so I'd argue, actually reduce safety as a knock on effect.

Needs a one-line description on the game page - "move the focus with cursor, or drag, to change the focussed number - make all numbers equal to complete the board" (that's my 30s attempt at an understandable description). I jumped in an missed the rules and then wasn't exactly sure of the mechanism/aim and there were no rules on the page and I couldn't get back to the splash screen without removing the cookie (the setting of which technically breaches EU law - https://ico.org.uk/for-organisations/guide-to-pecr/cookies/ is about the UK rendering of the "Cookie law").
He has dismissed all that as beneath consideration, and he has the One True Vision™ on how Unix should be architected.

I don't see him passing a value judgement on how it should be done, just dismissing a particular criticism as poorly founded. If you look at the difference between the Unix and Linux development models, there is a point. There are a lot of properties to Unix so it's a bad argument to say "not Unixy enough" when you really mean something more along the lines of "components take on too many responsibilities at once and are too tightly coupled."
If some of the biggest employers in the bay area artificially cap the salaries of their workers, of course it will effect how other companies price their openings.

Three Hypothetical, but perfectly plausible conversations (no one would ever negotiate like this, but ignore that, these are inner motives/dialogs to some extent)

Company: "And what were you thinking for starting salary?"

Interviewer: "I'm at Apple now, I make X. I'd like 1.15X"

Company: "Done! I was going to pay you 1.5X but whatever"

or

Interviewer: "My asking pricing is X"

Company: "Well, I know DevOps people working at Google make .75X, so we will offer you 0.95X"

or even more likely:

Slightly drunk friend #1: "I really hate my job, and I'm only making X. Am I underpaid?"

Slightly drunk friend who works at Adobe: "Nah man, I only make X if we hit our bonus numbers! At least its a stable job with benfits, unlike all these startups that flame out."

Friend #1: "Yeah, I guess you're right."
didn't know that.. thanks
I think the other bit is not realizing what is possible.

Many non-developers only see as far as what paper accomplishments they have already created with their projects. Programmers, on the other hand, see further possibilities in data entry, management, and reporting, also methods to reduce the amount of work that could be done.

Sometimes that also leads to that XKCD cartoon, where non-programmers think the computers can do anything, or think that an automated X is the way to go. Seasoned developers can offer valuable insight on what might or might not be a good idea and provide wisdom on why.
Shipping a targeted policy is simply a matter of practicality. Linux has actual 3rd party applications, and forcing all the vendors to either ship with policies or let the applications fail to run correctly would be a kiss of death to the MAC system. That was actually tried in the early days of SELinux, and it did not go well.

In fact that is why you even nowadays see "SELinux must be disabled" in application manuals. The early SELinux iterations really broke all the applications, and many people never took a second look at the technology. 9/10 of the application vendors that recommend disabling SELinux really don't do anything that would hit a targeted policy - the SELinux is already practically disabled for them. They just destroy the protection for the other software in the system...

Most common tweaking tasks can be found from booleans, and extra tweaks are easy to accomplish the help of audit2allow. However it baffles me to notice that audit2allow is not part of the default installations. It is a life saver that makes finding out why SELinux doesn't allow something really fast and easy.
