Are you intentionally ignoring this claim by the author?

While my film was in development, I re-wrote the third act of the film script with scenes of satellite debris destroying ISS and the lone surviving female astronaut adrift in her spacesuit.
I agree with everything you've said here. Certificate authorities are, like all organizations, prone to corruption and misaligned incentives. There are certainly issues, and it's very much an imperfect solution. The trouble is that getting rid of them (right now) is a net loss for cryptographic integrity. SSL, and perhaps public key infrastructure underpinning it, needs to be redesigned. There is no viable alternative just yet.
Haha. We have a lively one here!

The ACA just increased Medicaid eligibility to 133% of the Federal Poverty Level (~$40K for a family of 4). I would argue that's a pretty reasonable cutoff for those in need.

A Question Over the Reach of Europe’s ‘Right to Be Forgotten’
> My guess is that the OP has in mind something simpler.

Yes.

Not to dismiss the actual research that has been done, but... Estimates are mostly bullshit anyway.

This tool helps you to bullshit more accurately than nothing, while still being "super simple" to use.

The projection algorithm I use is extremely basic so far. There is a ton of improvements I have in mind already, and I haven't even bothered to more than skim read the research papers I found yet.

I did have plans for some simple Monte Carlo sampling to get a nice probability distribution graph, though.
> However, I was worried for a moment that there was no way to have multiple subtasks at the same level

Hmm. Any idea how to make it more clear? (Apart from just stating it... I need a manual, obviously.)

> The lack of feedback requires you to guess what's going to happen when you drop the task.

Right! I have plans for that, but it's the kind of think that takes a lot of work, with relatively low bang-per-buck. At least so early in development.

> The tasks could be slightly smaller

I experimented a bunch with that, and picked readability over space saving. But yes, as the project grows it gets harder to get an overview. I like the [CMD]+[-]... :)
Basically if you save the code behind the component (even if your text editor), the components will reflect the new code without a page refresh. It's for development, it seems.
The headline gave me hope. Alas no button on the front for overclocking. I am wistfully disappointed.
You can do two-way binding of a form field to the component's state using the ReactLink helper:

Ask HN: Is it legal to show screenshot of other websites ?
I am working on a side project , which require to show screenshots of other website on my website (most probably without their permission).

is it legal ? what are the copyright related issue I can face ?
On a related note, I submitted this article with an HTTPS URL and HN parsed it as a blank page (but http obviously worked). You can see that blank page here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8982899

My guess is that HN doesn't support the SNI extension to HTTPS, so it's unable to parse certain sites. Y'all should fix this.

I should note that (assuming the SNI theory is correct) that HN isn't alone. My understanding is that Twitter didn't support SNI until last month and some other major sites still don't.

The main benefit for a developer, as far as I can tell, is that the state of the app is maintained between reloads. So you can interact with it — e.g., type into an input, make selections in dropdowns — then change the code behind it and everything you did will still be there.

The site does say:

> React Hot Loader will keep it mounted, preserving the state.

but I agree that it could be more explicit about how it's useful.
> What land? You can't make land.

In fact, often you can. Just a week ago in Hacker News:

As to making bigger houses, you're quite right, but that's another aspect of "making land available". The land is there, zoning or lack of building permit does not allow developing it.

I'm looking for entry-level or junior dev work and a career change from a civil engineering background (land/marine surveying). While I'm into both front and backend and will happily accept work on either end, I am most interested in DevOps and backend. I'm comfortable on the CLI and with vim, tmux, git, ssh, etc. I also have some sysadmin experience.
My goal is to get my foot in the door in this industry with an established company where there are experienced engineers willing to take me under their wing while I improve my skill set in return for me putting in the hard work and the hours. My university work was in the liberal arts (I don't have a CS degree), and I'm determined to do the work necessary—on my own time—to get up to speed with remedial CS and algorithm knowledge on nights and weekends. I have excellent soft skills, and I'm easily in the 99th percentile of English fluency and written communication. If you need good documentation, technical writing, or even web copy, I can definitely help you with that if you're willing to carve out time for me in exchange for helping me improve my programming chops and technical development. Shoot me a message—I'm hungry to level up.

My deal-flow (as a contractor not as a SaaS provider) typically goes: meeting(s) > proposal > negotiation > master service agreement > statement(s) of work.

Once you're at the MSA + SOW phase, here are the templates I based mine off of: www.masonpelt.com/free-scope-of-work-template/

If you're truly at the proposal phase, this typically takes a less rigid form. No legalese. It should read almost like a sale brochure. Who you are, what you're providing, what you can do for the client (maybe some diagrams, charts, etc). And finally the cost. The proposal is typically an early-stage device though. In many cases it is the tool that first introduces you to a potential client (who has posted a Request for Proposals on their site, for example).

It sounds like your deal is pretty much closed. Your client might be using the word "proposal" incorrectly, and they may actually mean that they want you draw up an agreement. It sounds like you guys are past negotiation, and the terms are already agreed upon.
The point the author is attempting to make is that a culture has been created where it is unacceptable to fail to be arbitrarily sensitive and inclusive. That this is used to bully and control people and does not allow for a diversity of opinions.

Is that any worse than what we have now? If I can hijack your DNS, I can certainly insert or replace enough infrastructure to acquire a basic cert from numerous providers. All I really need is to hijack the MX. Bonus points if I can do it without you knowing, such that mail is first delivered to me and then on to you.

In other words, if you could put a CA into a TXT record at the root of the domain and have browsers/etc trust it, how is it any less secure than what we have now?

This isn't necessarily true. The article largely explains it. The interaction of particles trends to infinity faster than time.

Another way to think of it... Let's say that t is trending to infinity starting from 0. There are #s that will always be larger than t. Such as (t+1)^2.

One more way... Time is one dimension. The rest of space-time is 3 (at least). The size of possibilities is larger to 3 orders of magnitude.

And a last way... If it's feasible that matter can expand forever, then there's no way for the particles to repeat themselves. They just keep going and going...

I just skimmed this, but a large fraction of their information was just wrong for common-lisp, even if you assume a standard readtable.

One example: they state "anything without a space and is not a number" for identifiers; it's hard for that to be more wrong.

The actual rule is: a single token that could either be a symbol or a number should start with any non-macro character, and can be made up of any combination of non-macro and non-terminating macro characters, as well as any escaped characters. For example:

a\ b

Is a valid symbol.

Now that we have a token that is either a symbol or a number, we need to distinguish which; that's slightly more complicated, so I'll link the spec (which includes an EBNF): http://www.lispworks.com/documentation/HyperSpec/Body/02_ca....
I agree it makes no sense for consumer-targeted production. I have played with the pi and run a small robot to collect intermittent data from twitter and store it on Mongo, which I can remotely access using the web service.
At the same time, I would not want to go all the way to the cloud for such a small thing. I guess it depends on the use-case.
The scenario you've described leaves an audit trail. If you don't have a CA, hijacking the DNS means you can pull off an attack completely silently.

It's instant feedback. You should try making an app with animations. You leave the animation looping and you modify your constants and you don't have to reload or do anything, ReactHotLoader will plug in your new code without losing the state of the app.

You get much faster prototyping, collaborative tools out of the box and even a debugger with a timeline out of the box (you just have to save your state at every change and have a little scrollbar to scroll through your states). This is very very powerful.
Python Django Software Engineer

The VENTES “Sales Acceleration Platform” is an elegant, intuitive solution to one of the most common and complicated problems that most companies across industries struggle with: How to make sense of – and more important, monetize – the massive amounts of data sitting in their increasingly disparate systems.

VENTES is hiring a world-class team of software engineers, data scientists, and other key talents to lead development of our next-generation analytics platform.

We offer very competitive salaries commensurate with experience, uniquely attractive stock options, and an excellent working environment in Singapore Central Business District.

Must Have Experience

Degree in Computer Science or related field Solid understanding of Computer Science fundamentals, including object-oriented design, data structures, algorithm design, problem solving and complexity analysis. Proficiency in Python, Django and one other modern language Experience with PostgreSQL, or another RDBMS Desirable Experience

Cloud computing and highly scalable systems Experience in a agile environment Git source control A Linux environment Elastic search Data visualisation You may be the ideal candidate for our company if:

You are disproportionately motivated by the thought of launching an innovative product You like to work with a wide array of technology (services, front-end, data mining) You like to work without a map or guide. You’d rather be thrown into the deep end and solve complex technology problems for yourself rather than have your hand held You truly care about the business results of what you build, not just the elegance of the technology you build You adapt to change well, and aren’t particularly phased by course changes You are open and honest You have a positive and optimistic personality.

> I worked on something similar[1] and was totally hamstrung by front-end engineering.

Well, frontend is my thing, so... The estimation is a total hack, though. But it can easily be ripped out.

> I can't tell if this a straight up adaptation of PERT 3-point estimates or not.

It's probably not. I skimmed through some papers I found, but only to confirm the basic Idea I had to begin with. There is lots of room for improvement.

> I'm wary of projecting from a few tasks to all tasks.

Yes. This is intentionally just bullshitting. You are often very unsure of how big a task is going to get, and this bullshat number is sometimes as good as any number I can think of.

And, sometimes the best way of getting the right answer is to give a wrong one.

This is what I have noticed at work, and what I have (tried to) optimize the UI for.

I help startups and small business owners get more growth by attracting more leads and closing more customers.

In a nutshell, I refine their marketing to deliver a better message to more qualified leads; put the spotlight on referral generation, user activation, and user retention; and set up actionable metrics to optimize each of these activities.

In more practical terms, I make them collect user data using direct interactions, surveys, and analytics; spot high potential niche markets and sales channels based on this data; optimize their conversion funnels using A/B tests; and automate their sales process using drip emails, transactional emails, and whatever else moves the needle most.

A highlight in my career to date has been to turn a personal blog into a thriving software business. I had the privilege of working at the side of renowned marketers while doing so. Most businesses can benefit from applying the insights I’ve picked up then and since.

edonkey has two methods of file verification. The ED2K hash as you have mentioned. However, around 2004, edonkey world also received nicer AICH hashes. People that generate ed2k style links are encouraged to make include the

To recap:

ICH : inteligent corruption hash : also known as the old original ed2k method. Root hash is md4 and is generated from a series of md4 hashes generated for 9.5mb chunks. If a file is below 9.5mb then ed2k root hash is just the real md4 hash.

AICH : Advanced inteligent corruption hash : is a full Merkle tree using SHA1, where chunks are 180kb (with exception of a chunk on the 9.5MiB boundary). This weird part/chunking allows to map 53 of these AICH chunks perfectly into the ed2k chunks.

Think of the adversary, too.
Thanks for your thoughts. I should clarify what I meant by templates.

Templates are driven by content, not by logic, and they are typically monolithic. This works well for web pages which are about content which doesn't have much JS. The web was historically content-driven, which has started changing only recently with the evolution of Javascript and the emergence of web-apps. This historical quirk is why imperative construction of the view is unnatural form for developers. This is however going to change fast, because imperative view construction is the natural way to build web apps.

JSX templates are templates in the sense they do minimal string interpolation. Everything else is taken care of by programming language abstractions. They include control structures: conditionals and loops, and primitives for abstraction: variables, functions and objects. A template 'programming' language on the other hand is a suboptimal mix. For example, Angular's templating language reminds me of Greenspun's 10th rule, which with suitable modifications, can be read like this:

Any sufficiently complicated templating language contains an ad hoc,
informally-specified, bug-ridden, slow implementation of a
turing complete programming language.

I cover the above perspective in detail here: http://www.jasimabasheer.com/posts/evolution-of-view-templat...

The problem with wikis is they have little self curation. Wikipedia without waterfall management becomes the wikiwikiweb[1]. The information in a wiki isn't self organizing.

The successor may look more like StackOverflow. Topics aren't siloed and additions of information are low friction. It's easier for users to slice and dice information to fit their needs...I can search for SQL and Modula2.

I would also consider longer term commitments for a Clojure/ClojureScript team if the fit is stellar, and particularly if there was an intersection of interests with my startup interests.

I am a natural skeptic of much of the whining in the humanities. (It sounds too elitist and unmeasurable to my ears) That said, this seems like a very interesting way to connect both modern and ancient culture.
I think you forgot something that is very important to React: your component is a pure function that takes props and states and that outputs UI. Being able to make the assumption that given the same props and state, you'll get the exact same UI (to the cursor position), is extremely powerful. As a programmer your brain can focus on other things and forget about side nasty effects.

I have heard similar anecdotal evidence on Italian, and it's linguistic similarity to Spanish would support that. I'm a little surprised that Portuguese strayed so far.
I think we will need to look at streaming scenes from a more powerful machine rather than creating them on board. I don't believe we are ready in any way to process that much information on such a small system at this time (HoloLens also gives out quite a lot of heat from its on board processor). The old pi had trouble streaming higher bitrates, though then we still have the same ethernet so I am not sure how much is possible.

I think just like other languages, writing Rust leads to a familiarity with what the compiler wants. Then you spend more time thinking about design and the problem at hand, and less fighting the compiler. I think Rust will ultimately be easier than C++ to write because while there are tricky concepts to master, there should be much fewer of them than C++ has.
