Since you present your resume in code, I would have to take that into consideration. Your front-end skills are a good start, but I wouldn't hire you based on them alone. I honestly think you're putting yourself at risk but giving a potential employer the code of your resume to judge you by. The outcome is not as pretty as if you just created a standard resume, and I don't know that most people hiring would get that.

Violence is rightly against the law; we're all OK with that I think.

However, I do want a juror to think, "which verdict is likely to subject me to social ostracization?" I don't see anything wrong with that. Otherwise, the powerful can always force a mistrial with no consequences.

Two out of 1044. Eight people also decreased their pledges after we hit our goal, which took me aback for a moment—before it made me retroactively extra grateful that people had given beyond their comfort zone just to help me cross the finish line.
Looks like an acquihire. I love how failed businesses give a positive spin these days. Why not just say "we failed, sorry guys, we are going to get job elsewhere". They would have my immense respect had they done that.
The Blockchain Operating System (BOS) and crypto-income has been expanded a bit this week too. Details will be listed on the crowdfunding page on the 17th.
I am in something of a similar situation. I am kind of tired of pretending I care about a company, lie in the interview how much passionate I am for working there and stuff.

I don't know if I actually want a new career, maybe a new environment. If you are willing to, we could try doing something together that we care. Something between a side project with meaning. If you would like to talk about it, email me (contact on my info)
This confirms my (admittedly biased) outsider's perspective of startups, where the goal is not to do something useful or even profitable, but rather to fleece investors or get acquired by some bigger company. A result of this possibly-to-pessimistic perspective is my belief that it is a tragedy that so many smart, talented people, who could be solving real problems, end up in this shell game.
No, there is no shell. Only main() function can be evaluated. You may be interested in http://tryerlang.org/, but it is much more restricted.

thanks. Front end skills are obviously not my highlight as can be seen from the content of the resume, but I wanted to demonstrate that I have at least good coding style/organization and have some front end chops to complement my other skills.

What of the general content of my resume?
Since this will never happen, while the thousands of deaths per year due to driver error is a reality, who cares?
Show HN: Startup Idea Prompts – Generate from YC's RFS and A16Z's 16 Things
I pretty much agree with this. They created a D3.js treemap and probably even used a standard Colorbrewer blue color scheme, as seen in this d3 example:

http://bl.ocks.org/mbostock/4063582

Was it terribly uncreative for the other YCombinator company to do the same thing? Yes.

Was it plagiarism, copying, or unethical? No way. You did not invent the treemap nor a strong blue on light blue color scheme. Your UX is not unique enough to claim design infringement here.

Lastly, your TOS is probably the most alarming part of this story. You should not be so afraid of competition that you attempt to prohibit 'competitors' from using your product.

Godwin's law in action right there.
Not bad! I liked it. Kind of weaseled out at the end, though. I get the feeling the author got as close as he could to the truth and then just couldn't cross the chasm.

I was struck by the conscious selling out that the author points out. The folks building the next generation of internet content know what they're doing. It's not like it was back in '95 when we thought that we'd all just turn on machines and share. Back then it was utopia. Now, as he points out, you don't surf the internet. The internet surfs you.

But we know that. Yet to point it out is a terrible faux pas. The "correct" answer is just to sell out, grab the data, flip it, and move on. I guess the conclusion is that it's better to be rich with a slightly guilty conscience than it is to be moral and honest. It's rude to be perspicacious.

If true that people are starting to wake up, interesting. It's showing a shift a shift in the conversation. Far too many techies will rant at length about some kind of social injustice in the world -- while helping to create an authoritarian state the world has never seen before. It's about time some of them looked in the mirror a bit.
I can speak to this since I actually took this class last semester (Fall 2014).

Homework boilerplate is distributed to students through private SVN. This typically includes some method headers or libraries. We then complete the assignment to specifications and commit it through SVN, where it is graded programmatically. Therefore, we can't modify some of the headers.

The class has been taken over by a new professor. As such, it is being totally restructured and the assignments are largely being changed now. However, when I took the class with 250+ other students, plagiarism was rampant.

As far as I'm aware, the course staff has indeed contacted individual repo owners on Github for take down.
Great post, thanks for sharing your knowledge.
IMO as long as the research in these tools are being funded by corporate entities (e.g., Microsoft) then there's little hope of any open research.

Fortunately, there's money to be had for open source and research projects that are willing to organize and look elsewhere for some cash. Look at projects like Bro and Suricata -- commercial security tools which are government and educator funded.
No? I use my TV purely as monitor from a few HDMI video sources. Of course the TV malware could still scan for open wifi's and leak my information even if I haven't connected it to any of the other networks. Btw. Does HDMI standard allow data relay, so they could use connected devices to relay the data to 3rd parties over alternate network connections?
It's rare for me to read anything about prison without it strengthening my desire to abolish the concept entirely.
Google Now Is a Mobile App Disrupter
Read the comment I was replying to and note that it says “web technology” rather than “web sites”. While people built some great things they did so with significant limitations and had to use features which were not standardized. XmlHttpRequest is a great example – it was used by most of the sites you mentioned but wasn't even submitted as a standard for a full 7 years after it first shipped.

I've been doing this with Cloud9 for quite some time now. Just link your Bitbucket account (or Github, for that matter), and you can work with it directly in the Cloud9 IDE. Haven't checked out CodeAnywhere in a while, though, so I'm going to see how it compares.
In the southern United States the etymology is directly linked to Judge Charles Lynch and Captain William Lynch, who are credited with coining the term "Lynch Law".

Im not sure if the detail listed in this article is a good thing or a bad thing. I would hate to see my kids read this article and get any ideas. I know at that age I was just deviant and nerdy enough to want to try something like this.

I wonder how often they make methanol in these stills as well. Even under semi controlled conditions this is a risk.
Is it just me or all the examples given in the article do, in fact, describe drinking water instead of beer or wine as a thing that was done but was (a) something unusual, (b) a sign of religious self-limitation ("so abstemious that he ... drank water instead of wine") or (c) as a punishment (diet of bread and water).

So it only supports the thesis that people in medieval times did generally avoid drinking water to the best of their ability; it does say that the reasons for doing so aren't so simple to avoid 'bad water'.
Also this: But what many [communes] had common was a cascading systems failure of their foundational hypothesis — that social change could be achieved through self-transformation and the problems of power could be solved simply by ignoring them. There was always a Machiavellian in the transformational mist, though, and a refusal to acknowledge outright how power creates invisible structures that undermine the potential for cooperative action ultimately led to their implosion.

Wikipedia: "Asymmetric recognition in this way is authority without responsibility, on the side of the Master, and responsibility without authority, on the side of the Slave. And Hegel's argument is that unless authority and responsibility are commensurate and reciprocal, no actual normative statuses are instituted." (EULA=master, customer=slave.)
Just a continuation on a theme, and I'd expect this to become a bigger thing. I imagine that advertising will continue to move closer and closer to the consumer and away from the "medium". Until recently, media ads were essentially controlled by the networks (whether radio or TV), but I would expect the trend to be towards cutting them out of it a bit.

In-game advertising is already a ~$1bn/year thing, and this seems a logical extension of that. Imagine if your TV could insert ads depending on exactly what you were watching, based on your specific habits--it's an ad company's wet dream. Coca Cola wouldn't have to spend the time figuring out which programs to advertise to, they could target specific customers without having to go to a second-order of research (who do we want to advertise to, and where are they?). That second step is completely cut out.

I hate it, but I could definitely see a trend in this direction. Isn't this essentially exactly what Google Glass is about? If Google can figure out exactly what you're looking at, exactly where you are and draw conclusions from that data, they have extraordinarily valuable information for advertisers.
To the contrary, seems he built an anechoic chamber. The only signals he perceives is what he wants, cleanly. He has decided what he doesn't want, knows that most signals out there are just variants on the same such content, and blocks it all.

I'm approaching half a century old. Comes a point where you realize you have heard it all, and are not interested in anything "new" because it isn't. I'm this -><- close to shutting it all off and going seriously minimalistic. The tipping point would be a news service which presents only actual need-to-know news, and a stream of new music.

Address, enumerate, and centralize your core axioms. Build from there. Stop letting others dump $#!^ in your head.
> However, I do want a juror to think, "which verdict is likely to subject me to social ostracization?" I don't see anything wrong with that.

The fact that it tends to increase the incentive for juries to act like lynch mobs is one major potential problem with that.

(Of course, the actual issue in the source article is about grand juries, not trial juries, so "verdict" isn't properly within the domain of concern -- but the same general principal is at place. Do we want juries acting based on the facts properly before them, or do we want them acting as proxy for public trial-by-media? Because the latter is what wanting a juror to think "which verdict is likely to subject me to social ostracization" is asking for.)
He explicitly addresses #2:

>We are not going to escape this crisis by putting ourselves in a cage. There is no opt-out anymore. You can draw the blinds, deadlock your door, smash your smartphone, and only carry cash, but you’ll still get caught up in their all-seeing algorithmic gaze.

This is not a conspiracy, it’s the status quo, and we’ve been too busy displacing our anxiety into their tidy little containers to realize what’s going on.

That looks like a claim that the ratio of two integers is sqrt(2), but it's fairly obvious that he really means that it's very close.

I think it's awesome that Shane Jarvie put the Mesos Framework code for the article on GitHub: https://github.com/sjarvie/mesos_example for development purposes.
Honestly, it has an amateurish/outdated look to me. I think you'd be better off creating a nicely formatted, simple PDF. Either that or just make the page look more modern.
That's the point, at least it's not constructed for you in order to sell something.
The difference between beer and boiled water is that beer will generally stay uncontaminated due to the alcohol content, while boiled water is clean only for a limited time.
Just turn that codepen into an actual portfolio site and you're already a step better.

I agree completely. I didn't go to school for computer science or anything fancy like that. I studied Music Theory. Frankly, I think those luddites in the music building have done a pretty good job of tackling the plagiarism problem, and it's something that can be learned from by others.

At the beginning stages of a music theory course, you are learning the very basic rules. How did Bach's music work? That's where pretty much everyone starts. And you learn how his music worked by finishing his stuff. The early exercises (which I think are analogous here to having some code or library provided) are basically, "Here's the first part of a piece of music by Bach. Finish it in the style of Bach."

Then you go from there, gradually, with less and less hand-holding.

Is it possible to plagiarize these things? Of course! You can just look up the piece and finish it the way that Bach did.

There are some students who did things like that. The professors never bothered to say anything. They didn't have to. Because by the end of the class, you are all on your own. "Write a short piece of music in the style of Bach with the following features: . . . ."
Makes me want to write "anti-manifesto manifesto". If you want to write a manifesto work on it, make it clear, concise, well written. This is drunken mumbling rant, even if the author is right in some parts.
Dan Carlin's Hardcore History podcast cemented the idea in my mind more than it had been before. http://www.dancarlin.com/hardcore-history-series/
If by "aware" you mean "ignorant of the most basic facts that we take for granted", then yeah.

It's very hard to get our heads around the pre-scientific mindset. These people were not stupid (if intelligence is even a little bit heritable and provides any selective advantage they were in smarter than us, as there has been zero selection for anything in the past 200 years, so we are the dumbest generation of humans ever to live). But they, like Jon Snow, knew nothing.

They filled that vast void of ignorance with beliefs that make modern anti-science people like opponents of vaccinations, GMOs and nuclear power look like caricatures of the most rigidly limited kind of reductive materialism.

The thought that anyone might publicly test an idea that "just made sense" using systematic observation, controlled experiment or Bayesian inference (which people used long before Bayes, of course) as a matter of routine was simply unknown. Arguments were settled via disputations over imagination, putting one form of plausible bullshit against another and seeing which advocate could sway the crowd of ignorant scholars.

So the world was full of causes no one could see, whose existence "just made sense" so no one bothered to test. "Humours" and their "balance" caused health and sickness. Saints and demons influenced all chance events. Thinking made it so. God's plan was manifest by signs and portents. No major decision was taken without prayer.

People (some people) laughed at George W Bush when he talked about doing God's will, but a few hundred years ago everyone talked, and thought that way. They took it for granted and they meant it with a depth and unquestioning sincerity that today can be found only amongst Islamists and a few others.

They were capable technologists (there is an argument that technological capability led the sciences in important ways) but they way technologists thought about their materials and structures was completely alien to us. Much of it was raw empiricism ("do this, that happens") wrapped in a tattered clock of sympathetic magic and tortured religious/hermetic metaphor.

Imagine a world organized in all walks of life around the ideas and mode of thinking practiced by Jenny McCarthy, Food Babe, and Deepak Chopra and you'll get a sense of it, absurd as it sounds.
I think it just comes down to trying somehow to separate it from murder. Tacit acceptance of murders isn't a whole lot better than mob violence, but it is interesting to try to examine them separately.

The accounts of some lynchings are simply barbaric, large crowds dismembering and beating the victims, then burning them, all of it sort of in a picnic atmosphere. Even announcements of the coming lynching in the newspaper. That's a really different thing than 2 people conspiring to hang someone (and still really different than 3 people doing it, but I guess a clear line simplifies the compilation).
It wasn't just negroes, but also suspected supporters, and it was almost always by hanging.
Since it is impossible not to live in some variant of "chamber", always has been, and always will be, this is an accusation without teeth. Which is probably a good thing, since it's also hypocritical, but fortunately, it can't bite you back; it's toothless.

The interesting question is whether you have built a good or a bad one, and what exactly "good" and "bad" even mean in this context. But there is no "not in a chamber" option.
Not all written works are copyrightable. Even in the US which is fairly lax about granting copyright, a work must fulfill certain criteria to be copyrightable, cf here for a good overview https://www.lib.purdue.edu/uco/CopyrightBasics/basics.html

I suspect the explanation is similar to the explanation of the abundance of people who seem to have no problem with US paper standards whatsoever, namely, that it's just paper, and most people don't have particularly strict usage constraints, so they just use what they have and it works fine.
Generally, I find that if one's regexes are so complex that one needs visualizers or other aids in writing them, one doesn't have a regex problem, but a parsing problem. The method of parsing by recursive descent can often lead to much more understandable (if more verbose) "pattern matching".
I've wanted to ask something similar for a long time. I have a government job that has decent pay, but the schedule sucks, and I'm not challenged at all.

I have freelance full-stack experience, just nothing black-and-white professional wise other than sysadmin & electronics experience in the military. I recently moved to what could be considered an "up-and-coming" startup city and I've been tossing around the idea of pursuing a change of career to development, but I keep telling myself an entry-level gig while keeping my salary around $80k isn't a reasonable expectation. Does anyone here have any insight?
Yes; in order to qualify as a skeuomorph it doesn't need to _not_ serve a purpose, it just needs to retain design cues that were essential to the function of the original but not to the function of the copy. The iOS camera could very well do its job of taking pictures without making a shutter sound. The shutter sound is an auditory cue for the user, but not a side effect of the camera's function.

As another example, consider the iOS notes app[1] before the iOS6 design transition. The app looked like a legal pad---complete with a leather binding across the top and remnants of pages torn off. These were essential functional characteristics of the original object, but were retained in the copy only to provide visual cues to the user that remind her that the app she is using is just like a notepad.
