So everywhere else in the world should do exactly as I do and given that both the Uk and USA (the two largest English speaking technical nations) don't enforce CEng / PE to use the term engineer I am not sure what your point is.
Man I love these guys. They strive for accurate emulation first and foremost, but they still care about giving the emulator the power to enhance games in such amazing ways. They really have their priorities straight.
Which highlights another issue - when problems are found in what the dev has 'finished', where is the dev to talk it over or rework?

It's like the good old "Don't push on a Friday", except now "Friday" can be Wednesday or Thursday.

I imagine that there'd be more than a few of the less scrupulous devs who would push stuff earlier than they should (which creates more work for everyone downstream), to get the promised day off. In any case, if you do find yourself with extra days left-over in your sprint, why not tackle some tech debt or documentation, things that are usually lacking?
All semiconductor materials are photovoltaic to some extent.
He's asking if it's RF interference or just the light.
My title is literally "Software Development Engineer". I don't actually call myself an engineer, but it's ridiculous to say that I shouldn't be allowed to call myself one when my company seems to think I, along with thousands of other people, am one.
Productive works that matters. Not the working hours.
don't waste your time. have you tried devdraft.com..you take a few coding challenges and then you get in front of tons of companies. some of the best coding challenges i've ever seen.
The entire purpose? Not really. I think it has something to do with a mess of directed photons.
Bertrand Russell worked hard to write that. Work that we love to do falls into a different category.

The simplest solution is to require your customers to register before downloading a free trial. I can't think of a good reason why you can't do this for B2B software.

And if you're worried about conversion rates dropping, I have seen many companies report that their switch from "no signup required" to "signup required" resulted in no difference in conversions. It's certainly worth a test.
I agree with your sentiment. It's a shame for such an interesting product. I actually haven't bought one yet for your exact reason. I only decided to share because I couldn't find a single post about Gamebuino on HN.

I understand that they might want emails, but why not get them from PayPal?

It doesn't help that the site and its webforms are also entirely unencrypted. I really want to let them know that this is what's stopping me from purchasing. I might email them.
All silicon is photosensitive to some extent. The power supply will be one of the few chips which is primarily "analog"; in particular it will have a bandgap voltage reference. That's exactly the sort of thing to be badly affected by a charge pulse from the flash. Glitching the power supply will then destabilise the digital logic it's powering.

The real question is how the light manages to get through the epoxy casing.
I hope your use of adjectives has calmed down your nerves.

> You might want to take a couple seconds to think about all the ways that taxation is different from actual slavery

I've thought and read about this for more than a couple of seconds, but if it makes you feel edgy to make unfounded statements about how much research your interlocutor has put into what he has said, then whatever floats your boat.

> Taxation doesn't control who you can marry.

Tell that to gay people in the US.

> Taxation doesn't confiscate your children.

Tell that to those whose children have been unfairly taken away by CPS (there was a terrifying experience related on HN not long ago).

> Taxation doesn't prevent you from practicing your religion.

Religion is bigotry justified and made immune to criticism via holy books. I'm against them so I don't care about this point.

> Taxation doesn't require you to take the name of the person who owns you.

It does require you to get official papers, documents, and IDs registered with the oppressor, plus a passport and all your fingerprints to go from one tax farm to another.

> Taxation doesn't deliberately keep you ignorant and uneducated.

It sure does with the Prussian education model we use in the US, and you're anecdotal proof of that.

> Taxation doesn't beat you to death if you try to escape (it is trivially easy to renounce your US citizenship)

From Wikipedia:
Renunciation of U.S. citizenship was free until July 2010, at which time a fee of $450 was established.[29] An increase to $2,350, effective September 12, 2014, was justified as "reflective of the true cost" of processing.[30]

So it's only "trivially easy" for those that have $2,350 in the bank which if you look at the statistics for the US isn't that many people.

> Taxation doesn't tell you are less than a human because of your national origin.

Tell that to the Palestinians.

> Taxation doesn't make you owned by one person, a thing that can be sold to another person.

Tell that to the Greeks whose work and life savings are being negotiated to be sold to international banksters as we speak.

Good try though. Try again. This time try doing doing it better.
All of the badly-designed ones and none of the well-designed ones :) Often you'll see audio equipment with LED-biased voltage amps where the LEDs have some opaque glop slathered on them so they don't make popping sounds under bright lights, and to a lesser extent so multiple channels inside the same box are optically coupled, which is a concern. LEDs are photovoltaic like any other semiconductor but for obvious reasons they are not sold in opaque packages.

You could probably find devices that are disturbed by loud sounds and physical shock, because ceramic capacitors are microphonic.
Is there a way to sell games that I make?
A light flash is an EMP. Radio waves are light. They also, unless they are very short, pass easily through blue-tack. When they get that short they are basically becoming infra-red anyway. Then we have a wide range through the visible spectrum, up through UV, that blue-tack stops, until we start getting towards x-rays and blue-tack starts to become transparent again. This is caused by an electromagnetic pulse, but of one in or close to the visible spectrum, otherwise blue-tack would be useless.

edit :

The word light is commonly used as shorthand for variously the whole EM band, the near visible EM band and just the visible EM band.

If you are talking about the speed of light, it includes radio and gamma.

Discussing the colour of light on the other hand and you are referencing the visual system.

As soon as you start talking about visible light however, you are widening the definition of light again to include IR and UV and more, otherwise you would not need to clarify with the word visible.

edit 2 - darkmighty. I am not talking about the xenon bulb producing an RF EMP from the lamp flashing circuit, I am merely continuing the terminology used elsewhere in this thread, that a flash of visible light is also quite clearly a form of electromagnetic pulse.

edit 3 - foobarbecue. Radio as it gets shorter becomes microwave, then IR, then red, through green, past blue, goes to UV, then xrays, then gamma.
I mean something like a photo sending app like Snapchat, a mobile phone app.
The article includes the heading "NASA's insanely complicated plan to go to Mars". Does that imply "simple"?

The fact is that the current approach of going to Mars is fantasy. The United States needs a strategy to colonize a pole of the Moon (preferably the South Pole), make a long-term lunar colony work, and meantime develop nuclear spacecraft technology for a realistic shot at Mars and beyond.

Current policy on this is beyond ridiculous, without involving Congress at all.
I am SO going to start referring to flash-lights as directed electromagnetic pulse generators, albeit ones with higher than normal pulse durations.

Verifying the identity behind a PGP public key
Oh here it is. Here there is a guy that says "Majorana was surely alive in 1981 and he was in Rome. I've seen him."
He says that Majorana was in Rome with a priest Luigi Di Liegro, founder of Roman Caritas (a catolic institution to help poor people).
(still according to the witness) Majorana was a homeless, he was hosted in a monastery.
"I was one among the closer assistants of Luidi di Liegro and with him we met Majorana probably the 17 March 1981. It was not the only time, I met him in three-four occasions. "
This witness is a "director programmer"(??) from Calabria, he lived in Rome when he was young, but he wants to remain anonymous.
"Majorana was in Pilotta Square, on the Università Gregoriana's stair, near Fontana di Trevi. He looked like more than 70 years old", the guy was helping homeless people during those years, he was puzzled by one other homeless saying that guy (Majorana) had the solution to 'Fermat Theorem'", which was solved only in 2000.
"Then I said that I wanted to meet him with Di Liegro", the meeting happened and the priest drove Majorana back home. "After one hour and half he came back and said to me: 'you know who that man is? He is the physicist Ettore Majorana, the one missing. I phoned the monastery where he was hosted and they told me he left. Now I brought him back.'"
The director of the monastery said "Majorana had the feeling his studies could precede the atomic bomb and he had a conscience crisis and he wanted to be forgotten."
It seems Majorana was in another monastery in Napoli before the one in Rome. They were sure he was him for a scar in his right hand. The witness says "I asked priest Luigi to tell Majorana's family, but he said we must not. I tried to speak about the subject several times during the years, but Di Liegro, who never told anyone, not even his most close assistants, he didn't want to speak about it and he told me to shut up. He told me to not say anything to anybody until 15 years until his dead, happened the 12 October 1997. Now the time has passed."

Fuck Google Translate is way better than this crap. I'm scared.
Anyway it seems to me that all the people involved are dead, and the this story is carried by an anonymous guy. So it might be 100% imagination.
When you do, tell them I'll buy one if I don't have to make another account for a single shot purchase.
you are right. And the same applies in the other way. If most of the lenders are in Germany or some other country, of course they are going to be annoyed if Greece defaults.

Unfortunately, the length and tone of the article are going to convince many people that the author was on to something.
Do you discern some difference between "light" and "electromagnetic radiation"? Because the former is a subclass of the latter.

For a "that's the joke" - light is on the EM spectrum, so a flash directing light will direct an EM pulse. :)
Mathematics and computer sciences are hard sciences. However, people don't often see them that way because they're not "natural sciences", they are instead "formal sciences", so empirical work is not required. As a software engineer, you might use formal semantics to verify code, or you might need relational algebra to design your databases, or you might need statistics to understand the performance of the systems you work with, et cetera. Computer programs have even grown to the level of complexity where we use empirical models to study them, and design them using simplified, scientific models. For example, memory usage. The way software engineers model memory usage seems broadly similar to the way a civil engineer would model loading.

The fact that carpenters build houses does not diminish the accomplishment of engineers who build skyscrapers; the fact that novice programmers can build CRUD applications does not diminish the accomplishment of software engineers. The only reason that this is an issue today is because most people are old enough to remember when "software engineering" was not a thing.
Thanks for asking for clarification. I did not phrase that well.

I'm arguing that when we (taxpayers in the US) go in debt ($18 trillion + $100 trillion in unfunded liabilities) that means we are borrowing from future generations which will then be forced to pay for something they never voted for.

I see you like numbers. The numbers I point out above are a little scarier than your "1.45%" but nice try.
We do request they signup. But we allow the download without it. I'd guess 60% give us an email address. Mapping the purchase to the email domain shouldn't be too hard. Then we need to track the email signup to the original source (doable in Google Analytics???)

RF interference is long wavelength light and the successful filter was blue-tack, so probably not.
I think it's more likely to be the other way round, a lot of plastics are semi-transparent to IR, all block UV extremely strongly (as you start ionising electrons).

For instance, black PVC electrician's tape is entirely transparent to near-infrared, I use this to cover Xenon flashbulbs & still have an infrared-sensitive trigger fire from them.

I can't help but think you're proving his point. The question he posed was "What important truth do very few people agree with you on?" and the relevant quote preceding the reference to God is this:

> The reason it is hard to answer in the interview context is that the correct answer is one that the person asking the question is unlikely to agree with.

The question is personal. There's no wrong way to answer it yet we proceed as though there are only a few right answers. How does that happen? Well, what might happen if I were to give an answer that sounded like a creationists answer? You might be disappointed, associate my thinking with Kary Mullis, and call into question my intelligence as a whole. Conformity in this case gives me a more favorable option as I can answer your question in a way that has a high probability of being well received at the expense of an honest existence.

Thoughts?

I agree with you 110%, in fact I can't understand why this hasn't been done yet.

If you're working overtime all the time chasing a carrot on a string, you're wasting your life on a tomorrow that will probably never come.

If being in the moment isn't its own reward, that moment only pays off when you get the reward at the end. If you need to put in too many of those moments, no reward justifies it.

Can you deploy other stats languages? specifically what about models in Julia? Or PMML? Very cool. thx
No, it's not that. I don't know why they don't allow comments via the official API.

Maybe @dang would be kind enough to let us know if we'll ever be able to use the API to post AUTH and post comments.
hmm ... as a pilot and student of WW2 combat, I think this might be ok in peace-time, but definitely a problem in war time.

- to avoid radar, you have to fly low - tree-top high
- to save ammo, you have to shoot near ground-targets
- can the software be fooled in mountainous terrain?
- what about off-field landings?
- Japan's most effective bombers were kamikaze, and American pilots also considered ramming other aircraft after their ammo ran out
- if the software is wrong, does it roll inverted and pull down at 5G? how do you stop it?
Don't request, require it. Ask for name, email, business name, phone number (optional).

Less fun than a clever analytics hack but it will work. Try it for a week or two.
I am exactly the same way. I have ADHD too, I hyper focus all the time, I have triggers that cause me to think of certain ideas and everything you said I do the same. I am all out of wack right now, I have been procrastinating on my homework like crazy this and hyper focusing on random projects, like Thursday I spent 3 hours working on crime data around temple's campus, when I should have been studying for my homework.

But what I try to do with all the ideas I come up with is to let the idea sit, I too have a lot of things that trigger my ideas but I only really think about the ones that have stayed with me, like I have a really solid start-up idea right now and I have had it for about 6 months now. In between that 6 months I was consistently thinking of other ideas. But I think I am just going to focus on this, because it keeps coming up in my mind, and I have thought of some awesome ideas for it.

But what I do is I exercise, it really keeps my mind fresh and throws out a lot of shit. I know its not a software solution but it has helped me so much.
The author is viewing/reviewing Docker through a very myopic lens.

I work at a company that leverages Hadoop, and on each developer machine we each have a baby Hadoop cluster (3 nodes) running in VMs at the moment, in addition to a master controller. Hence, at any given time, my machine is actively running 5 OS's (if we include the native OS) and all their associated background tasks. My computer generally idles at 25% CPU usage. Keeps my legs warm in the winter.

We're finally going to dockerize the project and I couldn't be happier. Granted, Mac OSX doesn't natively support the LXC's docker uses (c'mon Apple!), so we'll still be running 1 VM, but that's a huge improvement over our existing implementation. My CPU wouldn't be idling nearly as high, I'm going to recover a ton of RAM, and the boot sequence is going to be substantially faster.

Being that these are developer machines, and simply understanding our use case, we're not worried about malicious tenants breaking out of their environments. It's just not a factor in our situation.

If anything I feel the "article" was a waste of time. I thought I was going to read a great summary on the state of Docker, and instead I got this unexpectedly aggressive piece from developer that couldn't conceive how to fit this particular tool into his toolbelt.
Wow, this makes me want to play Sunshine again. I only played it after Galaxy and was put off by the framerate (though I still beat most of it).
Honey lasts for hundreds, even thousands of years because some enzyme the bees produce. Apparently honey found in Egyptian tombs was found to still be good.
There are a ton of these type of Arduino devices on the market[0], although this one seems pretty featureful.

I think for something like this to be successful, it needs to be low cost, open-source, and have strong libraries and documentation for beginners. Products like this also tend to have a small, tight-knit community of enthusiasts. Holding a contest with prizes is often a good way to pull in users.

Seems like a very cool project!

If you think there is no way left to 'win' it sounds like you've already failed out of life. You aren't entitled to live in Manhattan.
Good question. We support R and Python right now, however we're planning to extend support to other languages in the future. We've found that while PMML sounds good in theory, ta tough to use in the real world (esp. With data transformations).
RF is not light and that's a pointless remark. But right on your second point.
Epoxy resins are pretty transparent by themselves, opaque ones have additional materials or dyes added.

Most dyes (also aromatic organics) are not active (i.e. transparent) in the near-IR.
Many sites have a build process that concatenates multiple JavaScript files into one. If they concatenate other scripts after yours, your "use strict" will apply to all of them.

Since the rest of your script is already enclosed inside a single function, simply move the "use strict" a few lines down so it is the first line in that function. Then it will only apply to your own code.
That was my first guess as well, the only reason I discounted it was that then I would expect the effect to happen more often. I could be entirely wrong there however.

edit - ars, I'm out of replies, but thanks for that. I think you are probably right.
I like the term Developer because I do a lot of things all day that I believe are more important that the actual "programming".

That's a pretty run-of-the-mill acceleration as far as fighter maneuvers go. Momentary accelerations in excess of 10g are not unheard of and the use of an ejection seat exposes the pilot to 12g or even more.
Sure. I was not being entirely serious.
With all due respect, you could get these exact same benefits by using Vagrant with a CM. Vagrant removes the need to manually manage the VMs, and the CM will handle the iteration on "system configuration / installation procedures".

It's my opinion that Docker images from Docker Hub are less repeatable than your average VM; as pointed out in the article there's nothing stopping someone from re-using a tag, and the contents of the VM depend entirely upon on what the upstream image creators felt was necessary (which can include things like grabbing config files from the internet in order to run a service).
Yes, that's why NeoVim is super exciting.
> Well, it's a library, not a framework: you can use it for as much or as little of your app as you like with as little as a single attribute declaration doing something useful for you.

If it has an entry point, it's not a library, it's an application. If said application does basically nothing on its own and you're supposed to extend it, it's a framework.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_framework

Pay close attention to the 4 bullet points in the first section.

> On "use strict", my understanding was that it applies per script

Yes. However, when you merge scripts, there is only one script at the end.

The site you linked to also mentions this problem.

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Refe...

"This syntax has a trap that has already bitten a major site: it isn't possible to blindly concatenate non-conflicting scripts. [...] It is thus recommended that you enable strict mode on a function-by-function basis [...]"
An Electrum Doge wallet that actually works (ie has been adapted to AuxPOW) and has servers working to enable it.

There was one a few months ago but it has since been abandoned http://electrum-doge.com/, yet there is still large demand for it. One exists for bitcoin that is working though.

It's fast on startup, non-Java and a headers-only wallet with a deterministic backup (1-time phrase based.) I read that the Core wallet might get a deterministic backup in the future.

Such a wallet would be great for newbies. ED also has plugin potential unlike the core wallet.

If you get it going, you could charge for its usage (eg a fee to connect with the servers,) and it may become popular on mobile devices if you could do a version for it (ie small footprint.) You could also do versions for other coins.

Full blockchain wallets are gradually becoming cumbersome as the blockchain size grows (that might be the true pain point.)
I have to imagine most have either made their decision or will in the coming days. It is unrealistic to think that node and io will remain compatible. I have moved over to io in production myself given that all the names I remember from the early days of node make up the team.
For certain repositories it's also useful to install a git hook to prevent individuals from pushing without properly configuring name/email in .gitconfig. This assumes you have administrative access to the server, of course.
