Unfortunately OwnCloud is fundamentally broken because all "apps" share the same process and have to be written in PHP. The bigger the ecosystem gets, the harder it is going to be to deal with security issues. If OwnCloud wants to become a reference platform for other developers it really has to tackle sandboxing and permissions.

Yeah, towards the big banks I definitely would.

Isn't that the standard? We always time the iterations for a specific time delay on the specific device and use that, and that's what, for example, LastPass (IIRC) does.

That still does nothing for the fact that a GPU will be thousands of times faster than a mobile.
HSBC got $3.5 billion from the AIG bailout:

The main reason I read HN is to keep up with whatever manic fancy will catch the developers' eyes this week, leading to me supporting it for a couple of years.
Significant new regulations were enacted:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dodd%E2%80%93Frank_Wall_Street_...

In particular, the orderly liquidation authority created a legal framework to liquidate a broader range of financial institutions:

Dodd Frank is at least toothy enough that banks are constantly whining about it now (and working to dismantle it).
Are banking jobs given out based on meritocratic ideals, or who your dad knows?
The parent asserted that, but did not actually quantify the risk in any way. I could just as easily say that there was no risk at all since the government was obviously not going to allow those institutions to fail.
We're fortunate that we have the support (family and education) to allow us to explore opportunities.

We are very engaged with the community and are engaged in every therapy available to us.

My mind though, when not consumed with doing all we can for my daughter, drifts to those parents who don't have families to help. Parents who can't afford to have one parents stay at home (my wife left her career as a Pharmacist, a big part of who she is). It's crushing to think that there are kids who could lose a diagnosis if they had the opportunities my child has. My daughter spends 30 hours a week in various therapies between speech, OT, PT and ABA. She's making amazing progress... but how do you scale that for a general population?

My perspective on society and the services that ought to be a right has changed drastically. It's a shame it took something like this for me to see it.

The risk was incredibly low. The banks were rather profitable, but they had cash flow issues from deleveraging. And credit vanished in 2008.

For the government's balance sheet, getting paid back 8.6% is a lot more reliable than your gut instinct of infrastructure or education or (especially!) health care.

That's probably a silly example, and I was just trying to think through 'what could go wrong with this?' before implementing. Thinking about it further, thats probably not something you want the library to be responsible for handling. I'd want to try out newline chars too since thats more common.
Why? Loss of tax revenue to the government resulting from a depression is certainly money that the government needs to factor into the calculation.
Like so many things, security is a spectrum. Just because an intruder can break your window, doesn't mean you shouldn't lock your front door.
I don't really think that this is that surprising or the worst thing about the recent financial crisis.

One thing about financial markets is that if everybody thinks you're doing badly suddenly they don't want to lend you money and this might do you in even if your problems had been survivable. And Lehman Brothers waited until the very last moment before telling the Fed they had a problem. So the Fed insisted on throwing money at every financial institution - even the ones that were hugely profitable during the crisis.

And if your company is short on money or dying the last thing you want to cut is bonuses. If your employees smell blood they'll be thinking about jumping ship. If you stop paying salary but leave bonuses intact you'll do better at keeping people at their desks until until they've finished wrapping the company up. And if somebody screwed up in a way that contributed to the crisis they should be fired and replaced, not have their bonus cut.

THere were a lot of things that should have been done differently in the crisis. Investors in insolvent companies really needed to be wiped out to encourage them to take better care in the future. Interest On Reserves was really not needed to prevent the economy from overheating the way the Fed feared (the Fed works with numbers months out of date and they still thought the larger economy was fine and that inflation has highish when the crisis hit). The bonuses are at best a distraction but one that's easy for politicians to make sound bites out of.
> The state of OCaml documentation is not great... I have had such a pain finding documentation. Generally, the only source for it is the French university that created/promotes it.

That might have been true 5 years ago, but the OCaml Community site [0] is rather easy to find and links to many tutorials and books. Among these is the excellent Real World OCaml [1] book which is pretty great for experienced developers switching languages and available in print and freely online. Other resources for more beginning programmers exist as well. The INRIA resources are, indeed, rather poor and except fro the language reference, rather outdated.

Directly programming for Apache hasn't been popular for years now in any language I know (actually, only mod_php is popular, if at all, mod_python is completely dead and no idea about mod_perl). Usually languages have their own servers that get reverse-proxied by a frontend server like Apache or Nginx. And for this purpose Ocsigen [2] has been available (allowing an front-and-backend OCaml approach). If something simpler is desired, CoHTTP [3] exists, which is both a HTTP client and server. Reviving mod_ocaml is, in my opinion a waste of time and effort.

The Life of a Developer as Illustrated by Cat Memes
I can't speak for adults, but many children with autism seek pressure and need various sensory input. Brushing isn't all that unusual, and some kids actually will request brushing. There was a time when my daughter would bring brushes to us (she's non-verbal) to request it. Sometimes she'll want pressure to her face and head, or to be squeezed.
At least those inefficient companies could be disrupted by startups, and at least they don't get to take my money by force (apart from subsidies and bailouts). No such mechanism exists for government. That people suck at running things is the very reason we need this rise-and-fall structure.
I didn't lay any fault, only facts.

I'm not sure what it matters what society does in general, Scooter is not interacting with all of society, but rather the people in his immediate location.

Furthermore, you're talking as if these are all foregone conclusions but that is not the case. We are alive now, have agency, and can make changes as we see fit.
You assume there's no other way to avoid a depression. The banks can be bypassed, even if that would be a bit unconventional.

Wow this is really helpful. Nice find!
I often hear this take, but I think it's overly simplified. It’s completely acceptable to respond in a negative fashion to ‘how was your day’. People just don’t want details.

So, “Stressful” or “Annoying” is fine. But “I had this one customer who…” is not.

The only real lie is optional and it's mostly about how you want people to think of you. If 10% of the time you’re slightly unhappy that's considered reasonable, but if your unhappy 90% of the time people don't generally want to be around you.
You haven't really stated why they're using CloudFlare - is it for the free TLS?

To be honest if they can't afford the $240/year to get TLS added to Heroku perhaps they've got bigger problems?

My point of view is that asciidoc is really powerful and underused, that's why i focused on it.

However, HubPress is powered by Asciidoctor (http://asciidoctor.org) which provide a compatibilty with Markdown : http://asciidoctor.org/docs/asciidoc-syntax-quick-reference/...
That table claims it follows the value in Germany, that is not entirely correct.

Colloquially, EUR values are expressed with the currency symbol following the value, but in nearly all business correspondence (i.e. invoices, contracts, etc), it is actually prefixed and in many cases (likely for historical compatibility reasons) spelled out.

In other words, in day-to-day use you'd likely see this:

123,40 €

In more formal situations and invoices you'd expect this:

EUR 123,40

I'm not sure whether this split pre-dates the Euro. I recall seeing "DM 123,40" before the Euro, but I was too young to pay much attention to that kind of thing. Most signage used "123,40 DM" or even "12 Pf." (for Pfennig, the equivalent of cents) or left it off entirely, I think.
That's a huge problem and imo Google should act. This fuels the anti-vaxxers more than it needs to. Education is a key to fight this problem.
I love Postgres but its support for sharding, multi-master, and most forms of scaling that aren't just "buy a bigger box" is still way behind most of the NoSQL solutions.

Lots of use cases don't need that kinds of scalability but if you do then Postgres can be more difficult to work with.
They are bonuses, but the word "bonus" means slightly different things in different industries. In the banking industry, think of it more like a sales commission than a totally optional check for doing a really good job. It's paid out according to a pre-determined formula, not the whim of a manager.

The criticism usually goes in the other direction: that a politician is too soft on an industry that contributed significant campaign contributions. In the era of the Koch brothers / Super PACs, everybody has contributions from one industry or another. Unless there's something I'm missing, it would seem a positive thing overall that financial industry contributions to Andrew Cuomo's campaign didn't keep him from analyzing and stumping over their bonuses later.

Note: Andrew Cuomo is a name I'm only vaguely aware of. I don't know anything about him outside of what I've learned from the article, and these comments. I have no opinion on whether he should or shouldn't be elected. So the above would apply to any given politician who behaved similarly.
If the risk was so low, why couldn't a private entity bail out the banks? Would have been a gangbusters investment, right? 8.6% is a good return for that risk?
Good point. I guess it's a matter of, in case this proves to be safe/adequate, how much each costs, not just in materials but in maintenance, use, wages (techs, pilots, etc), insurance and anything else you can think of.

> We found that cueing people to reflect on intense emotional experiences using their names and non-first-person pronouns such as “you” or “he” or “she” consistently helped them control their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.

In Marine Corps basic training (i.e. bootcamp) recruits must refer to themselves in the third person and as "Recruit LastName". I always assumed it was to dehumanize us (and that was probably the initial reason), but now I wonder if it had the added side effect of helping us "control [our] thoughts, feelings, and behaviors" during the prolonged period of "intense emotional experiences" that is bootcamp.
Everything is radially symmetric, so a 2D polar coordinate system should be accurate.
Are you sure this is true also for the Rewrite Rules?
I'd like to second karpathy here. When you do a practical interpretation of something like machine learning (and even deep learning!) I've had to cater to different tastes. Usually people in these classes fall in to either the more engineering side where breaking down gradient descent can help, or mathy where they've already done convex optimization and know the trade offs of LBFGS vs Conjugate Gradient and all properties of parametric models are obvious. The best thing you can do here is work with the students 1 on 1 to fill in the gaps. There's no silver bullet. Which is why I'd say taking the class in person is always going to be better than notes. I think karpathy is hitting a wider audience with the way he's handling the notes though.

Props to the way you're handling this!
Having four independently controllable rotors makes it inherently unstable, needing a real time computer to keep it from flipping.

Helicopters, on the other hand, have positive stability.
How about use an ORM and move on? Some of you waste your time on the most retarded shit.
Yes. That is the only claim I have made. You can replace the first three bytes with two bytes using this method.
@thu yes, and I assumed (apparently incorrectly) that it's obvious that helicopters won't work in such cases. let me rephrase :

Every bigger winter storm slows down emergency response - this potentially could get to the person faster than a snow plow followed by an ambulance and be able to land in your driveway or on the street, between the buildings. Same thing with flooding, landslides, avalanches..

On highways, bigger accidents block large parts of the road making it very hard to get to the injured, and is small enough to land on a side of a highway, or between crashed cars.

It potentially could arrive faster to any place in its range than a regular ambulance could, since it does not need to have a trained pilot, less maintenance, no control tower etc.

If it was fully autonomous you could deliver few EMTs to the place of an accident, and have them ship the worst cases to the hospital while staying at the site and working on stabilizing the rest. Helicopters are not autonomous.

It would be cheaper to make and operate.

Better?
You didn't bother reading the post, did you?

Tucson: "Loughner had been arrested (but not convicted) once on a minor drug charge[11]" - drug addiction combined with mental illness is the predictor here. The mental illness alone was not predictive.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jared_Lee_Loughner

> Acquaintances said that Loughner's personality had changed markedly in the years prior to the shooting, a period when he was also abusing alcohol and drugs.

Again: drug or alcohol addiction are reasonable predictors of violent behaviour. Mental illness alone is not a reasonable predictor of violence.

Mental illness is common. It would be unusual for there to be no mass murders with a mental illness. All you're doing is lazily ignoring all the very many murders committed by people who do not have a mental illnes o focus on a tiny minority committed by people who do have a mental illness; and then you're ignoring the actual predictors of violent behaviour which are previous violence or drug / alcohol addiction.

>@crdoconnor I'm from Singapore.

Guess what?

>In short, nobody wants to work in the service industry.

...at those wages.

Australia has far higher wages for service industry workers and no problems getting workers.

>Coupled with some political issues of the last 3 years (mostly resentment towards lower income migrant workers from neighbouring countries), we went from "our entire service industry — and construction and retail and manufacturing and everything other than high end jobs — IS staffed by low wage workers" to "holy shit, let's not let too many of them in and only bring in the educated folks with degrees".

In other words, the F&B establishment got used to the cheap foreigner labor while normal Singaporeans STRONGLY resented having to compete with them. The Government, fearing further electoral damage, vowed to stem the tide of immigrants and the F&B industry is now SO pissed off that the cheap labor tap has been turned off that they've resorted to cheap drone publicity stunts with a hastily written press release reprinted by the BBC.

It's a funny old world.
Why should HN be all that interested in discussing an internet shit-fit happening on another site? There's always an internet shit-fit somewhere.

I could get a bit of mileage out of discussing how this will completely fail because internet communities are generally driven by the shape of their moderation technologies, so copying the same technologies generally guarantees the same result, but other than that and the obligatory angry disagreements, that's about all the conversation there is here.

Anyways, despite the fact I commented here, I've flagged it too.
Indeed. Those kinds of situations showcase the problems of taxation that is too high, not the other way around.

It gets quite ridiculous sometimes, especially since 2008. Governments are looking for cash everywhere, and they don't mind challenging whatever comes their way.

It doesn't cost them anything to challenge arrangements, so why not try? At worst, they lose and they will have lost some time. Civil servants are being paid anyway. At best, someone pays up because they realise it's not worth the fight.

I read about a case here in Belgium where there was someone who wanted to move to Spain for non tax reasons. The tax administration levied an additional tax on some of his income, because they said his move to Spain was motivated by tax avoidance reasons. A judge ruled on the matter, saying they have no right to keep taxing someone who just wants to relocate, especially when it was pretty clear tax wasn't the motivation.

The fact is, they tried anyway, costing this guy tens of thousands in legal expenses. He was only granted a few thousand by the court as compensation.
Nope, it's less stable as the giant rotor acts as a large gyroscope. Quad copters work well with ultra-light weight electric motors, but the concept is focused on quickly changing how fast the blades spin so it does not scale very well.

The purpose of going through and removing the malicious scripts was to learn more about server security. I figured if I had been compromised I might as well learn what was causing it and how to fix it.

I have since toasted the server and set it back up with all of the things I mention in the article. I wrote the piece because I felt that there might be others out there who can learn from my mistakes and to also have a record for myself.

We are always learning and sometimes we need to learn the hard way, I got lucky in that this was on a side project and not any real client work.

Because Swift will allow developers to build better apps on Apple's platforms. The quicker Apple polishes Swift, the quicker the entire ecosystem benefits.

Sure, open source is ideal but there are benefits to helping Apple or Microsoft, for example, improve their software.

Here's the quote from the abstract that I found revealing:

Finally, recent clinical trials with doxycycline and azithromycin (intended to target cancer-associated infections, but not cancer cells) have already shown positive therapeutic effects in cancer patients, although their ability to eradicate cancer stem cells was not yet appreciated.

So, the way I read it, "It's a good idea, but we haven't gotten it to work yet, even after some testing, but it's a good idea."

I've been around a few research science labs and understand the pressures on them. Getting published is good...but not sure of the provenance of this outlet.
What is the reason for the shared certificates?
Lots of hate here. How about: this drone may be safer than an ambulance, careening through intersections and hurtling down local roads?

Its not just a neat idea; its inevitable that quadcopters take a bigger role in the future.
How you assess the balance of benefits versus costs of open source is a question which reaches into your philosophical beliefs. As for the distinctions between "philosophy" and "religion", well...that's a well-trodden path I won't go down.

Open source is not free. It's charitable work, which might be purely altruistic or might be largely self-interested, or anywhere in between.

For what it's worth, I do believe that the Swift frontend "should" be open sourced. I believe that I would benefit from that happening. I also believe that Apple would benefit, but I won't pretend that it wouldn't come with costs to Apple.

Apple has decided, at the present time, that the costs outweigh the benefits. Their philosophical stance on open source does not persuade them to incur the costs, at this time -- and possibly never will, though we both hope otherwise.
Yeah I do need to go through the list of supported SQL keywords for 9.4 and update the library. Thanks for the reminder.

The main goal of the library is to behave like Postgres format() plus some JS sugar like handling an array of identifiers. If the library behaviour deviates from Postgres format() then it is a bug.

BTW I personally like the %I${var} syntax you mentioned earlier.
One of the biggest issues with identifying cause (and many other topics around autism) is that we apply the term "autism" to a wide range of individuals. You have some who are incredibly high-functioning that qualify primarily due to their lack of social ability.

On the other end, you have some who are entirely non-verbal and often non-communicative in any form, entirely unable to care for themselves, and often have accompanying medical issues (gastro, immunity, etc.).

We call both autism, yet they are entirely different other than a few shared characteristics. Is it likely that both groups have the same cause?
Well, this is obviously the way we want it since we keep electing people who make this possible.
