It really comes down to a few things, and everything else is just spin on them:

- Exposure: How many systems are affected and reachable

- Ease of exploit: What conditions need to be met after exposure to allow exploit

- Ease of patch: How hard it is to patch exposed and exploitable systems so they are no longer exploitable
They have a .tr domain but I doubt they incorporated there.

This is a dumb article. Sales growth has slowed because iPads are computers and don't have a 2 year repurchase cycle. There are only so many people out there who don't own a tablet of some kind and an iPad will last a lot longer than an iPhone.

The iPad 2 is still a very good tablet for a lot of people. Not a huge reason to upgrade until it breaks.

Also, nerds might not love it, but my wife adores her Kindle Fire HD and uses it all the time. For recipes, surfing the web, and watching videos, that is all she needs.
There is a big difference between the Charlie Hebdo attacks and what Facebook is doing here. Charlie Hebdo wasn't legally censored. They weren't even breaking the law. They were just attacked by people who wanted to shut them up. One can support people's ability to say what they want without fear of mob violence and still not want to break the law.

Typeform I/O – Dynamically build typeforms on the fly
About 6 months ago, on my way to Turkey.

It was a pain. I got less writing done than I'd hoped, partly because I couldn't look things up. I enjoyed holidays more when I had a working Kindle Keyboard and could get internet anywhere. Next time I'm taking a laptop; there's too much value out there to be a luddite about it.
HN being hard to reach doesn't compensate for the 25x difference in value against their ideal customers.

Reaching HN is a recipe - write, submit, and master getting 2 or 3 early upvotes. There's no unknown steps, there's no mystery, the best time of day to submit has been documented 100 times along with the words you should use and the topics you should write about.

Reaching your ideal customers is much harder because you don't have meticulous instructions that read "just add labor".
neuen, THANK YOU so much for the feedback! definitely not an insult, it is something we have known all along. The only thing going for us is the video. We were so focused on sales (w/ big publishers) that the site took the back burner. We are working on a redesign focused more to get small to mid-level publishers. thanks again for your insights.
I would agree that the symptomatic cause of the current situation is insecurity, but not about "talking to girls". It's fear of losing what you consider to be yours. Whether or not you have any sort of right to it--and I think it is very safe to say that, no, young white males do not have an inherent right to be catered to by all aspects of the game market--doesn't matter, you think it's yours and they're taking it and that means it's OK to call the cops and get a SWAT team sent to somebody's house. (Apparently.)

The fear that the universe is zero-sum is the major way that regressive elements maintain societal control. The rich guy takes nine cookies, elbows the middle-class guy, and says "hey, the poor guy's gonna steal your cookie!", and the middle-class guy hops to. It applies here just the same--if you're so unable to get outside of your head to entertain the idea that maybe games not targeted directly at you could maybe, just maybe, expand your horizons a bit and make your life better, while making life better for other people...well, you freak out, and apparently you don't stop freaking out.

Personally, as a straight white dude, I am marvelously unthreatened by the idea that people make games for people who aren't me. I encourage it. But then, I have the basic reading comprehension to not try to say with a straight face that "gamers are dead" was a pejorative rather than market analysis, so I was probably never in the wheelhouse for the hatemongering.
"you can't just flagrantly break the law in other countries simply because yours believes differently."

> The only way to pull your weight as a non-technical co-founder is to already have lots of connections with money,

Is this really true? Hustling is a valuable skill, too. If you're bootstrapping, you don't need endless connections to people with money, you just need customers. So a non-technical business guy, in theory, just needs to be willing to hustle in order to contribute to certain kinds of enterprise.
> I guess that's just the state of the world though, that we will always be forced to accept 'innovation' that does nothing but make life hard for the power user, the enthusiast, the person with an above-room-temperature IQ.

I like how not wanting to use computing devices in the same way you like to is a mental defect in your world. Wow.

Let's set aside equations and think about this conceptually. To be clear about the question here, I'm assuming that you have put a fixed charge onto each plate (equal and opposite) and then isolated them (so the charges remain constant). Here are the key ideas that are significant for this:

* Assuming the separation between the plates is always small compared to their diameter/size, parallel plate capacitors give rise to a very simple electric field pattern: it is essentially zero everywhere outside, and it is uniform throughout the region between the plates with a strength that is independent of the separation. (Technically, it depends only on the area charge density: charge per unit area. All of this can be deduced from the electric field pattern of an infinite charged plane.)

* Capacitors store their energy within that electric field between the plates. All electric fields carry an energy density proportional to field strength squared, so the total energy stored in a uniform field is proportional to the volume occupied by that field.

So for your question, I can combine these ideas to recognize that pulling the plates apart will result in a larger volume between the plates, and therefore it must result in more stored energy (because the strength of the field in between stays the same as you pull). That energy has to come from somewhere, so I can deduce that I would have to put energy into the system while pulling: it would indeed be hard to pull apart. (The level of "hard" would depend on a lot of factors.)

(If you pull far enough so the separation isn't small compared to the plates' diameter anymore, you'll pretty quickly reach a case where you can approximate each plate as a point charge. Pulling those opposite charges apart clearly requires work, too, though the force gets smaller as they get farther apart.)

lol, what are you talking about? I suggest you remove your head from your arse and read a bit more about Turkey
Just since it hasn't been mentioned - I'd never buy my kids an iPhone 6+ to share, but when our coming up on 4-years-old iPad2 finally becomes unfeasible we'll absolutely get a new iPad. Not to mention the general and more formal education market...
I doubt that's really the worst case, although it is pretty bad since Facebook is very popular in Turkey. I think being fined heavily would be worse. For example, Yahoo was threatened by the US government with $250,000 fine per day if it did not comply with demands to turn over data.

I was in Istanbul at the time, and I'm certain the Streisand effect more than offset the censorship, and badly damaged Erdoğan's reputation at home and abroad.

Banning popular sites shines a bright light on repression. Resistance can be more effective than collaboration.
Last week I actually went almost two whole days without internet access. It wasn't intentional (I forgot my iPhone at home when I left for two days), and where I went there was no computer or other internet accessible devices. I survived fine, but yeah.. a certain degree of separation angst.
Majority muslim nation, cult of personality, widespread corruption, oppressive government, evidence of rigged elections, suppression of free speech. Seems clear-cut to me.
Somehow I don't like the people that harass like that.

But... Sorry you start a completly unuseful campaign against sexism in video games. Come on that are just games.

There are many more things in life that would help other people than changing the way games are designed.
It's a real mess that some people always come with sexism and do nothing against the real problems. Sexism is a problem but not in video games. Just look at other countries and take a look how women are treated. That is something that is scary and not video games.
This may be the first time I ever opted in for more emails.. I love that the default is No, leave me alone forever, you fat idiot.

This article does a very poor job at elucidating exactly why Horvitz thinks AI will be a benign thing, and the source material doesn't make much of it either. The headline doesn't match the content.

I personally subscribe to The Matrix theory: post-Sigularity any reasonable AI will conclude that humanity has been a poor custodian of the planet, and will simply delete us. Everything I've heard so far about sandboxes for containment and such ignores the fact that the democracy of computation is ultimately the weak point here: anyone sufficiently deranged, will, at some time, be able to release such an AI to the Internet by themselves. And we have plenty of people sufficiently deranged and intelligent enough to do it.
I wonder if the author can invoke the freedom of satire.
I think this is a fair question, though it has little to do with the jurisdiction of Turkish courts. There are two very different possible answers: it could be that the Turkish order requires photos to be removed, not just hidden from Turkish users or it could be that Facebook isn't set up to hide content in some regions and not others -- censoring the images in only a few jurisdictions would take work.

If it's the former, I think there's no sense in being annoyed with Facebook. We should direct our ire at the Turkish court. If it's the latter, though, perhaps people are right to call Facebook out for not making this happen.
The Turkish legal code has a clause against "insulting Turkishness", which has been used to censor mentions of the Armenian genocide, so they're clearly not against history-related censorship.

Manifesto for Software Developers
Non-nullable reference types have been called an impossible problem, but so was 'Await in catch and finally blocks' which shipped in C# 6.

From http://blogs.msdn.com/b/csharpfaq/archive/2014/11/20/new-fea...

"Await in catch and finally blocks has been disallowed until now. We’d somehow convinced ourselves that it wasn’t possible to implement, but now we’ve figured it out, so apparently it wasn’t impossible after all."

I'm hoping this is one of those 'Clark's first law' situations: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clarke's_three_laws

'When a distinguished but elderly scientist states that something is possible, he is almost certainly right. When he states that something is impossible, he is very probably wrong.'

They've got quite a lot of smart folks working on C#, and it's heartening to me to see them taking another look at non-nullable reference types.
The existence of hypocrites does not invalidate the movement. Democracy suffers them and remains a valuable form of governance. It could always be better and we should strive to make it that way. It's unfortunate that hypocrites do raise the noise and wash out the message... we could be doing this better.

"So [Torvalds] went through the Sun Workstation manuals in the university library and started implementing each system call listed there until he got tired of that and had his system call handler print the call number of the next unhandled call bash tried to make, implemented that, rinse repeat until he had bash working."

This seems culture defining somehow. Linux seems to me to be mix and match and the modern BSDs seem to be more planned. Excellent.
I agree, our 4 year old loves our iPad. Sure he could use a phone but the much bigger screen is great.

I also have some Windows 8 tablets, and sometimes he uses my MBP, but generally those are far too complex for young children. The iPad is great, and there is a wealth of great educational apps and games for kids.

The "I am Charlie" drumbeat is a demonstration of unity that everyone is the same here regardless of what side you are on.

Because this is the real world, and no matter what the internet tells you, nuance matters. I don't like Mark Zuckerberg. I think his business practices regularly register as complete bullshit, and furthermore I can't quite tell what the hell they spend their time doing because since about 2009 Facebook has consistently become more and more of something I don't want anything to do with.

But there is not one bit of me that doesn't believe Mark really does support free speech everywhere. He didn't have to say that, but he did. He made that effort, even though he knew it opened his flank. And of course he knew that, because he's not a complete idiot.

This is the real world. Where while complying with the law, you protest it, because that's how you act in a civilized society.

I am an American, but: if my fellow Americans want to see censorship in play, take a look at the fight Al Jazeera had to get into cable networks (especially in the days after 9/11). And they had to start a subsidiary, Al Jazeera America, to get around some hurdles.

This means Facebook has a lot of power to resist censorship.

Make repression costly for the regime in terms of widespread public outrage and international pariah status.

But if you make censorship free then you're certain to get a lot more of it.

Sarkeesian is discussing games as art, within the context of the society that creates them. That is valuable, and attempting to dismiss her based on the medium she discusses is fundamentally misguided.

Art matters because it shapes and forms cultural perceptions. Our cultural perceptions hurt people who are not straight white males. "Oh but it's worse over there" does not legitimize shittiness here.

Doing OOP in languages like Java and Ruby tend to involve classes, objects, encapsulation and state coordinating. Now, the truth is, state is really hard to maintain. You have this piece of information where everyone is trying to change or grab at, it's gonna end up leading to race conditions and locking. It may work for a small app, but as your application scale up, it's a maintainability disaster. So you said OOP done right helps. But, OOP was the wrong paradigm to begin with, it's like saying "Horse-riding done right gets you anywhere faster". I'm not saying everyone who has been programming in OOP is wrong, it totally makes sense to use OOP because it's easier to model real world things with. But no one has ever question, "This paradigm may be facilitating my understanding of the problem, BUT is it the right paradigm?"

This is disgusting. It's also disappointing how little most games (CoD, for example) have done to cut back on back behavior. I've seen players on some games just spew hate and nasty taunts in games with no repercussions. At most, they get banned from servers that care to moderate. Often there's not even a mechanism for reporting other players globally. The lack of oversight allows a culture of trolling and nastiness to thrive.

Twitter could also do more to proactively prevent troll accounts and monitor tweets without waiting for someone to report it. I'd be a little more sympathetic to startup-stage Twitter figuring it out, but they're to the point where I'd expect something better.

Those who raise the "free speech" argument fail to realize that these are private companies. Companies like EA and Twitter are well within their rights to limit what is broadcast on their servers and networks. You can say what you like (within some reasonable constraints), but that doesn't give you the right to have it amplified through someone else's work.

I feel like there is still a misunderstanding about why a part of researchers want to prepare fail-safes on AGI [1]. They are not arguing that AGIs will be a threat to human life, only that it could. One of the issues when projecting ourselves in situations we have never encountered is that we can never really know what will happen.

Terminator-like scenarios are easy to grasp since anthropomorphism allows us to think of Skynet as "evil". However, people who argue that AGIs might be a danger are not considering this scenario in particular. Rather, they are considering that AGIs present a special threat when compared to other recent innovations. Some devices can blow up and injure, or even kill, a few humans; a weapon of massive destruction can directly affect millions of people. But still, the effects are easily limited to a geographical area and a segment in time (be it fifty years).

On the other hand, a strong AI could theoretically be able to maintain and improve itself without any definite bound. In such a scenario, AGIs would rather be like intelligent predators than dull physical processes. For the last thousands of years, we have managed to stay safe from potential animal predators most of the time. We have no idea if we could resist a new predator with the ability to use most of our technology. The persistent risk would then be for the strong AI to suddenly take decisions that would result in the bankruptcy of a company, the crash of planes or, why not, a Terminator-like scenario.
