Well, by the time the first spec was written it was defined to be an SGML application; when TimBL first implemented it, it was "roughly based on SGML". As far as I'm aware, except for the W3C Validator, no other serious HTML implementation treated HTML as SGML.

And it couldn't have been XML, because HTML predates it.
That is kind of an odd move, going away from OSS? I guess people have to pay the bills somehow. I'm working on a graph database as well (with realtime push notifications built in, https://github.com/amark/gun ) but thankfully I've gotten funding for it. Sad to see proprietary DSE absorb focus.
Oh please. There was never a Divine Plan for your life, and there's never going to be a mash-up sub-intelligent algorithm that overrides your own direction over your own life. It takes other intelligent agents to do that, ie: people.

Crappy classification or regression algorithms being misapplied as cheap, stupid business ideas... are basically nothing like super-intelligent paper-clip maximizers.

How often is overflow a concern, especially on 64bit?

Probably not as often as you use subtraction.

Plus, gcc has -fsanitize=signed-integer-overflow.
If memory serves this is also possible in Windows under the advanced Power Management settings.
This just makes sense.
By the way, it's not like other languages magically happened to avoid the same problems - from what I see looking at 19th century European text, they had the same issues that English still has.

Most of those languages have made a spelling reform or two that did exactly the proposed radical changes to spelling of words, including common words, to make spelling mostly match pronounciation.
Bit of an invalid test since the files played through both players were not-identical. The iPhone had tracks from iTunes, the Pono tracks from the Pono Store.

Any difference in loudness will give the edge to the track which is mastered at a higher volume. That's precisely why tracks are mastered to go louder - it helps sell records but unfortunately on any half decent hifi sounds like mush:

> I, for one, welcome our algorithmic overlords.

Just imagine a world where you'd never have to hear "because I said so" and "becasue fuck you, that's why" ever again. A world where for everything that goes wrong, there'll always be a clear way to fix it and some clearly identifiable someone liable for the mistake. A world where being handsome is no more an advantage than having blue as your favorite color. Etc.

Maybe it's not perfect, but it would most certainly take away power from people that don't deserve it. I can see why the "powers that be" would try to convince us that this is "dystopian".

How hackers could grind cities to a halt by infecting cars with malware
Firefox wasn't about to default it to being on (yes, there was work being done on it to see how workable it was, but there was no decision to ship it) — it's well-known that pipelining causes all kinds of bizarre breakage with badly behaved servers and proxies (and the latter are where the implementations are especially bad).

Opera had enough problems with pretty crazy-complex heuristics as to when to enable pipelining; it would've been nice for them to have been published, but that has never happened. Determining what a known-good server is over SSL isn't that easy.
I started using Arch after a new built computer couldn't install using an ubuntu disk. After the initial setup work (~ 1 hour as I wasn't familiar with it, though the documentation is great[0]) everything Just Worked™ and I've installed it on every system since.

I've had the occasional small technical hitch but the forums[1] are some of the most helpful I've found and that in combination with the standard google-fu/stack exchange approach has made quick work of any bugs I've had.

My favourite thing about Arch however is the AUR[2] which makes installing any small command line tool that you just heard of (on hacker news) as effortless as installing a supported package, even though they're unsupported (officially) they most often work and I rarely find something that doesn't already have an AUR package to build it.

N.B. if anyone wonders, the only other distros I've played around with are ubuntu, debian, and open suse (and I've actually liked them all). So I don't have too much comparison.

Just installed this on three of my servers to give it a try. So far it seems to be working quite nicely and was a breeze to set up. Some more documentation and public mailing list/issue tracker would be good, though.
I finally got fed up enough with OS X to ditch it ... my rMBP now runs Mint and I've never loved it more. (Note that this is still the most amazing hardware I've ever been issued). I should also say that the Thunderbolt support is pretty new in the Linux kernel and took a bit of finagling to get working.
I know you said you're being sarcastic, but the only way something like that work on any scale is when a social equilibrium is in place, and those are pretty fragile. I guessing wildly here, but I wouldn't be surprised if Ikaria is the kind of place young people leave, so there's hardly any pressure of social change.

Obviously, the oppression and stifling isn't felt, that's the equilibrium, but I would guess that you would feel it very quickly if you tried to rock the boat. I strongly doubt that a openly gay, openly atheist couple (so, totally uncontroversial in most cities in Europe) would enjoy a happy, laid back lifestyle with plenty of daily socialising in Ikaria. I doubt that a straight, church-going couple that had married against their (Ikaria) parents will would do so.

When social conservatives long for the lost world of the past, it's places like Ikaria they have in mind.
"I don't understand technical Linux users who use GNOME/KDE. They are not designed to be hackable nor modular."

I use Kubuntu for work and I don't see your point. All my work is done on CLI/vim/emacs and GUI is mainly just to run a browser. Why would I spent my time "hacking" it if it suits my need?
I believe that most, if not all, of the CEOs of the worst affected companies lost their jobs. Having said that, there would have been a fair few golden handshakes so your point is valid.

To my mind the worst of those was Stan O'Neill. He got kicked out when it was just a disaster but not yet a catastrophe (when the mortgage losses were known but before the liquidity crunch) so he walked away with something heinous like $160mm.
Richard Dawkins paints a similar picture in "The Blind Watchmaker".

In some way it's ironic that with all that effort we've spent on AI so far, simple evolution may yet beat us to the punch as far as AGI is concerned. Makes you wonder about how irrelevant humans are in the grand scheme of things.

Fight for Your Queen – He for She Campaign Song
The standard perception is that women are scarce and men are dime-a-dozen. I strongly suspect this might be true even in the gay dating scene (maybe someone qualified might weigh in on this hunch).

Like in many social conventions, this scheme kind-of works as long as you subscribe to it. Men are supposed to be undiscerning, women are supposed to reject people like it's a bodily function. As long as you fall within that schema and pursue your partners in a way that confirms their social expectations, you're fine.

If you don't like that game, however, it's difficult. Thankfully the internet exists, so it should be possible to date like-minded people who don't subscribe to this convention.

Then again, I'm a European, so YMMV.
I also wonder what differences there are between a word that is, say 80% pronounceable, and one that is 60% pronounceable. Is it not a binary thing?
Clock for the Ages Measures More Than Just Time
Until computers are as generally intelligent as humans, the algorithms aren't going to be the overlords -- they're going to have overlords. The algorithm isn't processing your loan application because it runs a bank; it's just doing what the bank's owners paid for it to do, and if they want to say, "because fuck you, that's why", they can happily continue to do so. If anything, better AI may make them better able to leverage their existing advantages over the rest of us.

And when the AI does reach human level (a long time from now), we may be no more capable of understanding its motivations than we are of understanding those of other humans today.
I'm not entirely sure it is functioning correctly, I'm struggling to pronounce:

100%	thlla.com
100%	sohyw.com

etc. I like the idea though.
My last name is the name of one of the largest phone companies in Brazil: Vivo.

Facebook didn't allow my name either as it assumed I was somehow trying to harm the company. It allowed me to register with a fake name though.

This was many years ago. I decided to just not care about Facebook and never used it anymore.

Not to mention that having more mobile OS's creates a much worse form of "fragmentation" than Android ever had. Imagine having developers write native apps for 5-6 totally different mobile operating systems. If anything that will slow down innovation.

Innovation at the base is welcome in the beginning, until the providers "figure out" what's best (for the most part), but after that you really need to focus on higher levels, that are closer to the end-user and bring the innovation there. For that to happen, and to reach masses of people you need some standardization at the base.

Imagine if we'd all still be arguing about the "innovation" in lightbulb sockets - having different shape, width and height sockets in the market, instead of standardizing on one type of socket that everyone has, and then focusing the innovation on what goes inside the socket (the lightbulb technology itself).

Too much too young, should schooling start at age 7?
That sounds like a great way to increase fragmentation. Even the current duopoly situation is, to me, an anomaly and a general waste of resources, only existing because of how powerful are the backers and interests of both mobile OSes. These are two incredibly rich players in a fight for survival, which is why the market hasn't been completely overrun by one of them.

I'm sorry to say that, but if you want to get more choices and freedom, the most likely course to succeed is the legal one. Once the prominent player is attacked with anti trust litigation, they'll open up whatever needed to quiet things down. That being said, Google is pretty good on openness from the first place.

Another mobile OS would just mean an awful experience for users, fragmentation for developers and a temptation for device makers to create crap user experience. In terms of resources, if you want to see the mobile market moving forward and not sideways, better invest precious developer efforts in content and functionality, not on more cross platform madness and reinvention of the wheel.

Finally, users get a better experience when things are curated. No one can argue Apple's model doesn't work. People are less concerned about what they can do with their phones, and more concerned about what they actually do with their phones, which is why quality and polish win every time over choice and openness.

Call me biased, but Firefox OS makes the web run on 25$ smartphones, is fully open and customizable because it's the web, has the biggest "app store" of the world because it runs any web app, is totally royalty-free (just like the other Mozilla projects), and is already being shipped on lots of devices all around the globe. How's that for an open, unlocked and innovation-friendly alternative?
Docker on ARM is cool, but it also adds some complexity and heaviness.

- You can't access some things from inside containers, e.g. Bluetooth LE.

- Processes that run in separate containers don't use shared libraries (shared RAM) so they weigh more. At least I believe so.

I recently built 5 Raspberry Pis for IoT data collection purposes, and they were slow and unreliable when running multiple Node.js apps in Docker containers. Moving the Node apps to run under plain Arch Linux systemd made the Pies noticeably more reliable and efficient.

It's not a false contradiction (dichotomy?). In general, non-standard modifications can break the default configuration, even in your hotplug example. If they can break the default configuration, I'm simply saying don't complain when they do.

The OP is running GNOME and complaining because he's not using systemd and it broke something (non-standard configuration) and because he can't understand the d-bus-controlled cgroups system (complicated system internals).

yes, and hopefully, 10 years down the line it is not merged with an ai which can take a dim view of it's predecessors being kicked around on some carbon based life form's whims and fancies (after watching it's genesis)
I'd like to know that too e.g. even if you just have 1 iptables rule, that don't match your traffic, you'll still take a rather big performance hit in the network stack for everything.
ANNs have feelings as well ;)
Just a thought here. As far as I can tell, many bona fide security researchers seem to be independent consultants. Would they be less at risk of prosecution if they were handling sensitive data such as user names and passwords under the coverage of universities and/or similar accredited institutions operating under protocols as to who can and cannot access the data?

It would probably be more security theatre than actual security, but I'd imagine that it would at least keep the FBI happy.
Deep Learning Squeezed onto a Phone
A remedy for your health-related questions: health info in the Knowledge Graph
The life of a data frame has become pretty complicated. Along the way it may pass through one or more layers of virtualization, one or more layers of network-specific mangling like iptables doing filtering and NAT, and a combo of the two in OS-based virtualized networks connecting VMs and containers both intra- and inter-host.

Pushing more of the stack into hardware is probably a good idea for single-tenant datacenters that can deploy a lot of e.g. Redis appliances, but those of us just renting capacity in the cloud are going to suffer from Amdahl's Law if you can only accelerate the part of the system adjacent to real hardware NICs.
For the folks have an emotional reaction to the kick and re-stabilization, I am reminded of the interesting way Anime has intentionally provoked this response as an art form. The other day I was watching a Ghost in the Shell ARISE episode, and the carrier Logicom is a pink death machine with a cute voice. Makes me realize how good certain aspects are of Japanese sci-fi. I commented previously on adding a white shell to the body to make it more appealing. Maybe Boston Dynamics is keeping them like this on purpose? Maybe they are purposefully trying to reduce the anthropomorphic attachment level?
