Do only one thing. When done with that, move onto some else.

The first thing on your list is the one to do.
No, it's probably not the reason. But that you distrust is in the best interests of Russian leadership.
Ok, found:
pass in on egress proto tcp to any port ssh

It means that you need to open port 22 (ssh) in order to be able to log in as recommended firewall setting is to 'deny all' by default.
Creating a New User and Changing Username/Password on Raspbian
I'm afraid I believe the role of the Emp(eror/ress)/Tsar(ina)/Premier/President in Russia is akin to the role of a Father-at-large. So basically, people know he's flawed, they're not innocent, afterall, but they feel protective of him. They take him personally. So an attack on him, by the media, by western institutions, are, indirectly an indictment on them. I think this has foundation in how the country has always had a strongman or strongwoman at the helm who have always projected their power unambiguously and forcefully. It has been this way since the Khievan Rus. People were for practical purposes enslaved serfs till 1917. And then it arguably got worse.

Tutorials like this are good for learning, but since computers are great tools which can help to prevent repetitive work it would be great if the author published a virtual machine image or, even better, some saltstack or ansible recipes to build this on github, so it could be improved and maintained by everybody.

Hint to authors of similar tutorials: yes, just release the scripts to build the vm or docker image. This is 2015, it hurts to see 100 of people manually copy pasting things.
How about sliding up once on the first page visited and then on subsequent pages just have it display. It's the sliding up on every single page that is so distracting (perhaps that's the intent).
Thanks. That's weird, because I can already log in with ssh on port 22. I was asking because I didn't realize how it was related to a mail server. Now I understand you might want to log in remotely.
For a Linux distro, definitely check out the Yocto Project which has similar goals. It is quickly taking over the embedded Linux BSP space.

In addition to configuring and building the entire OS base image, including cross-compiling, managing the base image, including custom third-party software, testing with a qemu image etc., it also coordinates working with a team of developers during development by managing build artifacts, and controls software updates to the new distro after it is deployed by building apt- or rpm- (or opkg-) style packages automatically.

Maybe a bit of a learning curve, but it is very well documented and has a large community and some big companies behind it. Definitely worth it for the flexibility.

Haskell has subtyping, it just doesn't use it a whole lot. That said, you can make arbitrary subtyping hierarchies using it if you like.
> If you know you are brainwashed, you obviously know the "truth".

We never really know the truth. I can tell you what I ate this morning, and I can tell you that the sky is blue (maybe blue-greyish today).

The point is that too many people believe what they see on CNN, and assume it's the absolute truth. People base their world view upon curated news without questioning anything.

Here's a great interview by Larry King on his Ora TV network (re-broadcast online by RT): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wv2f6ZZmx4A

In it, Stephen Cohen (the guest) makes the point that there's little debate in the western media these days. Either you agree, or you agree more. No one questions anything anymore.

Russians will tell you everything is a lie not because everything in Russia IS a lie (some things are, some aren't - much like over here), but because it's part of Russian culture, their outlook on the world, to be cynical and critical of everything.

One poster brought up that RT is trying to discredit everything, but that's not really correct. Russians question everything, it's a part of slavic culture, hell my 92 year old Ukrainian grandfather who's been here his whole life shares that outlook.

We in the west though have been transformed into gullible sheep, who question nothing we're told because we are comfortable working our 9-5 (more like 7-6) job to pay off our credit cards and debt, while watching shitty TV shows and never finding the motivation to ever learn about anything...

I don't believe the exact ratings either, but I do not doubt that an honest poll would reveal a very strong support for Putin. There is a deep trauma in Russia about the disorder and weakness of 1990's, and Putin, for good or bad, took Russia out of it.
If you say stupid things, then that is your right. But if I then say that I think you are stupid, that is also my right.

What you don't seem to understand is that our media is "controlled" by a free market. There are tons of online magazines which share your world view. The audience can choose these outlets. If news media with these world views were popular enough, they would get their own TV channels, and the money from advertising and subscription would enable them to reach even more people. But they suck. The vast majority disagrees with their views, "logic" and "solutions". That's why they are called "fringe" media.
I ran into this when computing PSNR comparisons using a Numpy function that returned a numpy integer type:

>>> import numpy
>>> x=0
>>> y=numpy.int32(2*10**9)
>>> x+=y
>>> x+=y
>>> x
-294967296

In later versions of Python this gives a RuntimeWarning so this is less likely to cause problems now.
You would basically be demanding that people whom have power relinquish it. This has historically been hard to do. Instead, cleverly, you put external pressure from the masses to force the issue.

The inverse is claiming child porn or terrorism to get the masses to give up privacy rights when they normally would be reluctant.
Well done, impressive willingness to deal with chip-scale BGA soldering and spend the time to reverse the wire format.
Total agreement about most of those things, but I want to indicate that Haskell has some amount of row typing available via libraries like Vinyl and it certainly has c-types.
In Russia immigration is a hot topic too, and internal Russian press is virtually not allowed to express opinions about limiting immigration just as well.
The problem with Chomsky is that he views everything from a left-wing perspective, in which he interprets the biases in the media as coming only from big money and the geopolitical power that big money relies on.

He cannot explain, for example, the success of pro-immigration politics. He might argue that immigration is a tool used by the powerful to lower the cost of labor, but to do so is to completely ignore that it has been the left that has been the main driver of immigration and multiculturalism.

Similarly, he can't explain the success of the pro-Israel lobby in the US. He views the US as propping up a right wing regime in Israel for its own benefit. But again, this ignores the complete cooperation of the mainstream left in the US in this process.

The only way you can believe in Chomsky's worldview is if you think that literally everyone in mainstream US politics, and most of the left outside of the mainstream, have been co-opted into promoting an agenda which is absolutely unrelated (and often opposed to) to their stated agenda. It is a viewpoint that vastly exaggerates the importance of money and political power, and ignores the power of ideology.
See if you can talk to the people in your company who hired the contractor. They might at least be able to give you a high-level description of what the software is supposed to do and how it's supposed to work. They might even have specs that they prepared for the contractor or other design documentation.

If the contractor's software has no tests or is poorly written, it's going to be hard to add features to it or refactor it. You might want to read Working Effectively with Legacy Code[1] by Michael Feathers, which describes how you can get a handle on large bodies of legacy software.

Coming from the security industry, I've talked trash in Facebook for their abuse of the word hack. Now that I'm working on a webpage of my own I really appreciate the mentality. Often I find myself stalled trying to come up with the optimum solution before I start programming, or hung up not knowing which feature to work on.

My failure to start is well addressed when I decide to just implement it in the obvious way, just get an implementation out and worry about optimization later. If I have too many things to decide between I make a list and prioritize from there. Having each thing written down allows me to forget about the item until it's at the front of the queue.

So, write your stuff down. Choose a topic you want to learn that will be most valuable to you now. Forget about everything else.
The Effect of Phase on Switching Rectifiers
Yes, unilaterally deciding to walk away from a development effort in the middle sounds like it could be a breach of contract (assuming that there was a reasonably written contract).
This occurred with VMWare Fusion 6 as well.
You could simply say, "I don't give estimates in under 3-hour increments, because there are inevitably other fire-extinguishing and support activities that interrupt even the most trivial tasks."

Sometimes I get interrupted with "Alice needs X added to Y right away", or "Bob needs reassurance that this is working as intended in the original ticket" -- no problem. Other times, one might lose productivity to things like, "Java update broke our GWT compilation toolchain completely".

It helps if your manager knows that such interruptions happen, too. I also am a fan of overbudgeting and then revising later once I understand the problem better.
I am almost sure this is a machine learning fail on Google's side. Your site probably matches some spammy profile and they just treat their algorithms as objective truth beyond certain threshold. I think we should all get used to this broken AI everywhere for the next 20 years...

The Need for Electrical Conversion
He is probably dealing with this, given that the audio piece is not just "tomsdiner.wav - timsdiner.mp3". There's a lot of processing happening after that:

----

Verse one finds the narrator in a bustling diner, making observations about her environment. The focus of this text is external to it's author, as opposed to later verses which exist in a more subjective, internal space. Using different settings to harvest the lost material, I was able to isolate both clear, pitched content and more ephemeral transient signals.

Using the python library headspace, and a reverb model of a small diner, I began to construct a virtual 3-d space. Beginning by fragmenting and scrambling the more transient material, I applied head related transfer functions to simulate the background conversation one might hear in a diner. Tracking the amplitude of the original melody in the verse, I applied a loose amplitude envelope to these signals. Thus, a remnant of the original vocal line comes through in its amplitude contour.

Having constructed this background, prominent pitches from the original melody appear and disappear, located variously in this virtual space. These ephemeral sounds hint at a familiar melody, playing with aural memory and imagination, a flickering apparition hovering at the border of consciousness.

Having played with both Nim and Rust, I also prefer Nim.

Basically Rust is a slightly more pleasant C++, but still huge, complicated, things break all the time, and there's no IDE support to help you make sense of anything. It's probably more robust, maybe faster as things get big, but I haven't got there yet.

Nim is as easy to write as Python, the toolchain is very easy to set up, creating Nim interfaces (with documentation) to your favourite C or C++ library is dirt simple (thanks to tools that come with the compiler), and the language is shockingly fast.

Right now, it's just so much easier to get things done with Nim. Reminds me of Coffee-Script - because it compiles to another language, you get access to a million libraries and platforms for free.
Where did Putin say Ukraine is a "red line" before that crisis. Just a reminder: Their elected president rejected a trade agreement with the EU. His people didn't like that, and coupled with lots of grief about extreme corruption and other things, things escalated. The US or the EU did not intervene at all, whereas all the invading and conquering forces where Russian...

The western governments also didn't want to topple Assad. But they also can't be opposed to deposing him, because that would contradict all democratic values: Assad and his father are mass murderers who rule their country dictatorily in a reign of terror.

Regime change was never a goal in Libya. If at any point Gaddafi had just stopped shelling civilian settlements, the bombardment would have been stopped, and the rebels wouldn't have had a snow flake's chance in hell of deposing him. The UN resolution was followed to the letter. Gaddafi's stupidity is a whole different matter.

Parent is getting downvoted, but he/she makes a legitimate point. As someone who spent some time in Singapore, it is an awesome place, great food and people and completely beautiful.

Parent was just pointing out the irony.
> The reason there are very few remaining alternatives is largely because (in most systems of government today) the State has taken tax dollars from the private sector's solutions, thus starving them of resources, to fund it's own competing solution.

I find this very doubtful indeed. The state by and large spends money on things the private sector has no interest in, such as welfare systems; I fail to see how this starves/steals from private sector solutions (no one makes money by supporting old people; no one makes money providing medical help for the poor; no one makes money by polluting less; no one makes money off going to the moon, though lots of people make money off the research that comes from it, etc.)

Basic Block Versioning: A Clearer Picture
Believe it. Every Russian I know in real life (in Canada no less) loves Putin. And why wouldn't they?

Remember that Bill Clinton, for all his failures, is probably still the most loved US President. Why? Because things were good while he was in charge.

Look at this Russian economic data: https://www.quandl.com/c/russia/russia-economy-data

For better or worse, for all Putin's perceived downsides, Russia is better off than it's ever been. Sanctions and all. In fact, most economists are projecting a 5% reduction in GDP due to sanctions. That will put them at 2013 levels of prosperity, which is still way, way above where they were only a decade ago, never mind in 2000.
It sounds like you're suffering from some ennui. I wouldn't get too caught up in worrying whether it's a disorder or something. It will probably pass. I suggest making a pivot. Put that idealism to use and join up with a cause. You might find it gives you a sense of purpose you're missing.

For example, I was bored with engineering and decided to do Teach For America 7 years ago. It turned out to be a very difficult experience, but I feel like I had a meaningful impact. It was also life changing for me in many positive ways.

TFA's definitely not for everyone, but perhaps you have an analogous passion you could pursue. You don't have to wait to make your next move until you want to know what you want to do with the rest of your life. Just make a definitive choice, put your all into it for a year or two, and then reevaluate from there.

I'm overwhelmed by the volume of information, but even more so by the volume of opinions. Take even a simple long-running one, what to believe religiously. I can hear one side, then the other, then another... and each in turn (usually) makes sense. There's not enough info to say one is right, but which is right?? Because each believes their point is right, and yet if I held a different position all would criticise me. I can't resolve that dichotomy.

I feel you hear. A couple years back, it occurred to me that we might be in a post-fact society. There's so much data out there that any position can be supported by such-and-such's study or so-and-so's historiography. For me, the answer is to seek principles instead of data. I think there's also a tendency for people to pontificate about things without ever seeing the reality on the ground.

All the best to you in your decisions. Shoot me an e-mail if you like.

> And watching the experiment progress forward through time, it remains impossible to say beyond 50/50 odds what the actual final state of the particle will be in. But, if you follow the experiment backwards, following the particle's timeline from its future to its past, Murch and co. found that they could up their odds to 90 percent correctness. The implication is that everything that happened to the particle/state after the strong measurement, influences the strong measurement itself ... in the past.

I'm not a quantum physicist, but I don't get this. Maybe it's just explained in a silly way, but this seems to imply correlation, not "causation" (i.e. the future influencing the present). Correlation isn't that surprising, obviously - if I flip a coin, a friend looks at it, then I look at it, I can predict what my friend saw (in the past) with 100% accuracy.

Obviously I'm missing something.

"State propaganda machine" presupposes state control of all media outlets. Which is true for Russia, but is not true in any western country.

ECMAScript 6 from an Attacker's Perspective
We can't see in infrared, but there's clearly information there. Same with infra/ultrasound and other sounds that are buried in our hearing.

It may not be pertinent information in the case of music, but it's definitely information.
I returned to grad school to study music technology at NYU a few years back, and one of the things I really appreciated about my program was how project-oriented it was. Almost every class required me to invent an idea and then execute it within a couple months. It was great practice for following a process of ideation -> research -> focusing -> delivery, all under hard time constraints, and in parallel. It forced me to realize that I had to be able to optimize and be willing settle for imperfection. But the result was a whole bunch of projects of various levels of achievement, a great mix of broad and deep learning, and a lot of confidence built.

I think for the OP, this 4-5 month time constraint could be a really good thing.

Single-sided "news" reports can be right in some cases and wrong in others. Given that there is no way to verify them, they are obviously untrustworthy at that time, even if later they turn out to be correct. When evaluating one-sided reports absent a different perspective, your best bet is to weight in the biases and the track record of the people reporting it. I'm not sure why you have a problem with that line of reasoning. If anything this is empiricism.

Even if he was wrong about his stance on KhR, how does that affect validity of the book?
