brynet, who posted below, tweeted a pdf-rendered man page for the new openbsd file command:

http://brynet.biz.tm/pub/file.1.pdf

It seems to have all the options I'd ever use. In fact I've never used any options to file (though I do use it to quickly identify a handful of files, often enough).

The only reason OpenBSD does this kind of thing is because they got annoyed with the vulnerabilities in the classic file/libmagic source which everyone seems to use. They probably disliked the code style / organization of the source enough that they didn't want to patch it up (which they also do fairly often for various ports). That said I've never personally looked at the source.
On the contrary, a lot of the 2d indie darlings have terrible graphics, they're burdened with hubris ("it can't be that hard to make pixel art") and nostalgia.

How do you establish what a wrong verdict is? Another jury? And then a jury auditing that jury?
Have you been to Japan? man, if I was fortunate enough to be in your situation, I would go spend a very long time there. Such a pleasant country, totally different culture from the west, but first world++.
im not sure why one wouldnt want a whole distro tho - it makes debugging, testing, etc far easier.
Thank you very much for your feedback everyone, I really like Computer Architecture(Datapaths, MIPS, ARM design) and Machine Learning. Its really a tough choice because I have also taken a lot of electrical engineering courses, computer science and computer hardware design courses. So...its really a tough decision.
I see myself starting to feel like this too. Granted I've only been traveling for just over a year, but I do feel like a bit of an outsider everywhere - even when I was recently in my hometown in Australia.

I've found that keeping a routine, exercising & making sure I'm still doing the things I enjoy (painting, taking photos, writing) are really important for my sanity.
Of course it's nonsense.

If we can deduce the answer from silence then there's no need for any of the information given in the question, it's not a logic puzzle it's bullshit.

I don't assume Albert and Bernard are anything, if you've made assumptions beyond what's stated in the question then you've done it wrong.

And yes, I understand timing oracles.
Wow, I envy you. That sounds like an amazing trip.
Ting has GSM in beta (T-mobile resold) so it might be worth checking them out again if you have decent T-mobile LTE coverage in your area.
If you feel like giving us another chance, we've got Ting in GSM which might resolve the Ting on CDMA data issues you experienced.

Thanks for the kind words about our customer service. Our team thrives on great feedback like this :)
Came in expecting a post about special effects in Baron Munchausen, but what I found was even more interesting. Thanks, OP.
Assuming that's Haskell, you probably want Hoogle (https://www.haskell.org/hoogle/).

For any other language, SymbolHound seems quite useful.
I just wish the court system was faster and less expensive.

It would be fine if you paid a lawyer for a day or two of preparation, walked into the court room about a month after the case was officially brought, and had the stupid patent suits thrown out after a couple of hours in there. "Wow that's a fancy lawyer you brought. Too bad this patent is clearly bullshit. NEXT"

EDIT: also, cheers to Vizio and NewEgg, for never settling
We can all be hacked.
>> Let's consider the question: 1. "Why did Albert speak first?"

If you're even thinking about this then you have failed the question, it's a puzzle that asks you to derive a correct answer from the data provided, not from your conjectures about human behaviour.
Thanks, it seems that control systems and machine learning are the next big thing in the industry.
I dunno, that era of gaming seems to transcend nostalgia. It was basically the peak of 2d game development. The switch to 3d after that changed gaming forever in a way that seems to emphasize cinematic gaming over intricate mechanics. For those that prefer the latter, the SNES generation has yet to be topped.
Robert Ash, imho one of the best writers for mathematical self-study, lists "Include Solutions to Exercises" as #2 piece of advice in 'Remarks on Expository Writing in Mathematics'[0] His quote is better than any summary I could come up with:

"There is an enormous increase in content when solutions are included. I trust my readers to decide which barriers they will attempt to leap over and which obstacles they will walk around. This often invites the objection that I am spoon-feeding my readers. My reply is that I would love to be spoon-fed class field theory, if only it were possible. Abstract mathematics is difficult enough without introducing gratuitous roadblocks."

1 year ago I quit my old job as a web developer at a startup company in Mexico City. Had been working in multiple digital agencies, small and big ones and always doing freelance projects or personal ones in my spare time.

Had the opportunity to travel to Buenos Aires, Argentina for two weeks, so I asked for my paid vacations and that trip changed my mind. I've never travelled at my age (22), so when I was back and in only one month I quit my job and start selling all my stuff I bought for 3 years. In the meanwhile I started to look for more freelance projects, and just two weeks before I took the plane - I had already bought my ticket - one remote job position was opened for me. Lot's of benefits like good salary and a brand new laptop, and they agreed that I was in another country and I was going to be traveling through all latinamerica.

One year since that, I was in Argentina for the whole year - I have really good stories. One month ago I arrived back to México, I still have my remote job position, I'm using my extra hours to have more freelance projects and I'm saving everything I have because I'm planning to go to Central America in August (Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panamá, Colombia, Ecuador and Peru).

The things I learned from this experience is that traveling isn't that hard, you just need to plan ahead. You can decide what kind of traveling experience you want. My sister right now is bagpacking from Buenos Aires and she's right now at Ecuador, she's selling jewelry and food on each city she arrives. In the other hand, my kind of traveling involves a stable job, lot's of food and a good place to sleep and work. But that's your choice, there are different flavors for different people.

If you're puzzling over this you've done it wrong.

There is no inference from silence. There is no humanity in such a question, there is simply the information you're given and the application of logic to narrow down the answers. The Singaporean kids that took the exam knew this and anyone that's ever taken a maths or logic exam should know this.

You don't guess what might have happened from human behaviour because you don't know, you don't look for a 'trick' to give away the answer, you simply use the data in the question to narrow down the possibilities until you can arrive at an answer.

The moment you think "but what if this action could have taken place because if he knew he would have said" you have failed.

And you probably suck at debugging.

> More importantly, if you're looking through the code and you don't know what tags are self-closing, you can't instantly tell whether something's a syntax error or not.

I came to say this, so I'll second you instead. Syntax is less cognitive load than remembering what element does what - and in reading code, if I don't see a closing marker I'll go looking for the closing tag before thinking about the tag.

On the contrary, what? Who said anything about indie games specifically?

This sub-thread is talking about modern games, all of them. My comment still stands. Games that make most of the market share, are burdened by graphics.

Ori is a good example that does that. It's an indie game with a major publisher and was profitable within the first week. Its graphics are turned up to 11.
The current de facto file(1) implementation was originally written in the 1980's, which was a very different time. It has been continually maintained since then, but it was still holding onto a lot of legacy idioms that have lead to some pretty significant security vulnerabilities in recent times.

This is a simple implementation that includes a safer new magic(5) parser and excludes many of the "built-in" parsers that the contemporary file had, i.e: for executable formats, which are probably better examined with specially tools like objdump(1).

The original author shared this very fitting sentiment on the news the new file(1)...

"The Albatross fell off, and sank
Like lead into the sea." — Ian Darwin

The Rime of the Ancient Mariner
When you watch The Adventures of Baron Munchausen, there are some pretty intense practical effects scenes that Sarah Polley had to go through. In particular, I'd be leery of the combination of water, large animals, and explosives myself! In fact, I'd probably want to be there as they were setting things up, asking countless questions until I was satisfied that all danger was illusory. Even as an adult, this would likely have been hard to do in a chaotic production where everything was constantly in danger of spinning out of control.

Gilliam obviously did not have full knowledge of how Polley was feeling at the time, but her experiences offer a lesson for anyone who has to put a child in circumstances that are challenging. It's crucial to spend extra time explaining and educating them in order to defuse fear that they might not admit to. Children have a lot of things they still need to learn, and one of those is when to speak up for themselves when they're not comfortable. Polley was wise to have this discussion with Gilliam and, perhaps, wise also to make it public.

Directors often have too much on their plate to worry about the welfare of their actors and parents are probably afraid of interfering in a way that might harm their child's chances to work in later productions. It's sad, but Polley's parents were her agents in a way, and had an incentive to prevent her from objecting when she felt she was put in danger. Perhaps a third party advocate for child actor safety should be on set, but admitting this would be a bitter pill indeed for the parents!

PepsiCo to Drop Aspartame from Diet Pepsi
Corrected headline:

OpenBSD's new, untested file(1) implementation.

The only thing "safe" here is that the author was completely unharmed by the unit tests that he failed to write. Where I work 2500 lines of new C code without a single line of tests would be laughed off the code review system and then probably revisited around performance review time.

Heroic programming is how we got to where we are today, running the world on gigantic piles of untested gotos and question mallocs and frees. There are no real heroes in programming, only people who haven't yet figured out how to write tests.
>Also, you might wonder how it is that these people who don't have houses to live in are found under piles of rubble.

You'll probably win few awards for sensitivity with those kind of comments. It's like wearing a paper hat that says "Upper/Middle class, privileged, knows shit about the world outside his home country, but insists on having an opinion" to people reading these.

What part about "not having PROPER houses to live" sounds contradictory to the rumble? Depending on the country, there's rumble that is from old buildings never repaired (e.g old colonial, or cheaply built concrete houses from better times), rumble from tin roofs in DIY shacks, etc... Here are what those houses looked in Haiti before the Earthquake for example:

I do think a cleaner, more careful file(1) implementation is a step in the right direction. But it's still a bit unnerving to me that a bug in a utility like file(1), which needs to do nothing but read a file and output text to stdout, could possibly do things like overwrite other files, write to the network, etc., even in the presence of parsing bugs and a maliciously crafted file. A parsing bug in a utility that does nothing but read files and parse them should not be able to do anything worse than force a misparse! The file(1) binary simply does not need to have permission to do things like write to the network or disk. This seems like a shortcoming of the traditional Unix permissions model. A promising direction imo is the more fine-grained permission model of Solaris/Illumos, which FreeBSD's Capsicum project also aims in the direction of.

I also think it's one of the best games ever made.

Foursquare’s Dennis Crowley Can’t Stop Believing
He mentions "economic" as an inpediment in passing, still going on about why these people don't impement proper construction tecniques. It's like Maria Antoanete story, were she's told that the people can't afford bread and he says "well, why don't they eat cake then?".

Plus the way he talks about the "third world" this and that is borderline racist (and disrespectful).
Mobile app privacy insanity
The worst thing to happen to me was also the best. Back in 2006 I put in my 2 week notice after 5 exemplary years at the company. With 3 days to go I was fired for a frivolous reason (my boss was a vindictive type of guy). I was supposed to continue working part time for the company but getting fired put an end to that, that's why he did it. That motivated me to take a year off and prepare for a career change. The new career was software engineering, and now I make four times what I did back then, and I work fewer hours and have less stress. Funny how life works out sometimes.

Upgrade from wheezy. Continue using sysvinit because "continue using what's installed already" trumps "systemd is default for fresh installs". Problem doesn't even exist.

I'd say very few people do, which is kind of scary for a utility like file(1), which people feed any random file without giving second thought.

Its not mentioned in Wikipedia but people still consume small amounts for cinnabar (ore of mercury) for medicinal purposes.

Disclaimer: I am not a doctor, this is not advice, just my personal experience...

It works amazingly well to soothe a sore throat (temporarily), far better than the usual lozenges and without the numbing sensation that the stronger sprays and lozenges have. I don't know where to get it. Amazon does not list it. Googling seems to show that it can be purchased from pharmacies in the UK... But I do wonder how safe it is.
Hope the next question is not too snoopy - I'm just curious, so feel free to ignore me. Taking care of a 5 year old sounds like far from a full-time job to me (presumably he's in K / pre-K). I have two kids myself (4.5 and 1 y.o) so I have a bit of perspective. What do you do with all the free time?

my opinion, the lack of comments come from that the site isn't very intuitive for knowing what this is all about. maybe just a clean description or use case scenario is in order.

The patent system is bankrupt of value. It needs nothing less than a complete gutting. The amount of resources wasted by legitimate companies on patents is atrocious.
There are other ways into Maridia, though. I don't think you are actually required to bomb that glass.
I am from a subset of the world that believes one is not to be taken seriously in the business world (including the engineering professions and software) unless one is dressed full business professional, so that was definitely culture shock.

It does feel strange to be talked down to when dressed professionally, yet talked to like you understand what's going on when you show up in Vans and a hoodie, indeed.

Logically speaking, if everyone dresses down, that includes women as well. Kickass male "code warriors" aren't stereotypically known for their sharp grooming habits either.

Could you elaborate on what you mean when you say you feel disconnected from others when you get back? Do you mean in the sense that you feel their understanding of the world is limited compared to yours because you've seen/experienced more of it? Or in the sense that you had a different kind of fun/adventure that they'll never experience or know about?

> When in fact, the guy who put a $50m buy order at $98 will cancel it as soon as the price drops from $100 to $99. He never intends to let that order execute. It's 'fake demand'. He's got some of the product and he's hoping that his $50m buy order is the gesture that fuels more demand, raising the price to say $105, at which point he sells his product, cancels his order, watches the price drop and buys some more product at cheaper rates.

You can't reliably do that without a crystal ball.

Let's say there is a total of $1m of buy at $99.
Then Alice sends a $50m buy order at $98.

Bob sends a $51m sell market order. It will immediately match $1m at $99 and $50m at $98. Alice cannot cancel her order. (if the market in question doesn't support market order, the example still works for a limit order at x<=98).

If you change the example so that there's more depth above Alice's order, e.g. there's $500m at $99 and $500m is relatively large for the average daily volume, then maybe we can assume Alice will have time to cancel her order before it's executed. However, in that case you cannot claim that Alice's order will significantly affect the price.

You can't have it both ways: if Alice's order affects the price then Alice faces the risk of having her order executed; if Alice has very high probability of being to cancel her order, then it means it's far from the best bid/ask, and it won't affect the market much.

I don't want to kill my advisor (he's a pretty good guy, honest, and generally not a douchebag... in all honesty I have in the past and would in the future have a beer with him ).

It just seems like everyone is a cog everywhere -- in academia, the real world, whatever -- and there is no escape.

That's what really sickens me. There's no room for original ideas unless you found a startup, and then, what, you sell your company to IBM/Google/Microsoft/whoever in a year or two and it's the same damn song and dance.

A PhD isn't a requirement to be a cog -- it doesn't even seem to make you a big cog that drives a lot of other gears and functionality in the clock, going by those I know with one. It seems (from the inside) like a lot of extra effort and stress. So, the letter hit close to home.
Considering file is supposed to be invoked on unknown files, I fail to see how tests other than fuzzing would give any assurance security wise. A very anal code review on the other hand...

And the OpenBSD people are very aware of fuzzing, this new implementation of file is a direct reaction to Michal Zalewski findings...
What caught my attention most was the fact they are using CVS. Nothing against, just I don't see CVS too much today.

Anyone knows how much impact this change can bring? How much systems rely on file?

Personally, every time I use it was as one-time script.
