Are there any good Youtube channels which look at these hacks and explain a bit about how they work?

I found this one: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClgilE1XxsorM1iX9YtS4FA
in the related videos of the Pokemon Yellow video which looks pretty good.

People ignoring old works is why we have node and people trying to put polish it with promises, rather than people just using Haskell or Erlang or something else with lightweight threads. Or at least something inspired by them.
VHDL is more strongly typed than Verilog (I consider this a good thing). Sure, it's a bit more verbose, but the language is more expressive than Verilog - allows overloading operators, for example. A nice example of the advantage of VHDL over verilog is that there's a FixedPoint type in VHDL (as of VHDL 2008, I think) whereas in Verilog you're on your own to line up the binary points - very annoying.

They aren't missing. We all know where they are.

You also need to factor in how outsourcing and globalization gutted Detroit (Motown). Poorly educated blacks from the delta came up to urban areas to engage in technological manufacturing jobs and were paid very well for it. The model was so successful that company owners eventually outsourced the entire operation to freshly-destroyed post-Cultural Revolution China and paid them a bowl of rice to do the same work instead.

Blacks went from lower middle class to wards of the state in less than a generation because of that.

But hey, at least you have hundreds of millions of Chinese employed and less than twenty million blacks impoverished instead of the other way around.

Someone has to pay the price for industrial wonder, folks.
And yet, people in the UK have certainly been prosecuted for looking up jihadi websites with the intent to download bomb-making instructions... Although, the actual crime may be posession of said information? It's hard to tell, particularly living in a country where 'glorifying terrorism' is now a crime - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terrorism_Act_2006 - as is 'encouraging terrorism' too.

I bet the prosecutors are kicking themselves for not thinking of that one earlier, as well - they could have simply rocked up to certain pubs in Belfast and arrested and jailed everone singing IRA songs ;)
I'm already friendly in equal measure to people of all races.

You are right that white people being friendly is an issue. But that is the fly in the room. Black culture is the elephant.

Admittedly, though, white culture has been in decline since the late 18th century, so that's also a problem. Whites are doing all kinds of things to exacerbate the problem. Like accepting postmodern views that reject individualism and reason in favor of racism, classism, feminism, psychological determinism, and so on. Totally rejecting individual responsibility. In other words, yes, white culture is a huge problem---but not in the way people think.
Zero black women were raped by white men last year. I'm not even making that number up.
In fact the 13th Amendment explicitly calls out being convicted of a crime as an exception to the "no slavery" thing.

The full text of the amendment:

> Section 1. Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.

> Section 2. Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation.

By word count, 30% of the amendment allows slavery under specific circumstances, but somehow that seems to get left out of the curriculum of most american civics classes (that I've seen / gone through anyway).
I don't see the difference between saying "this is valid C99 code" and "this is valid 'paranoid C' code". At least not if your 'paranoid C' compiler is working to a specification.
Think of the flip side: you have two of a thing. You have three options:

1. Eliminate one from your possession by selling, gifting or trashing it.
2. Just have two of a thing.
3. Get a third, and call it a collection.

The research implies that few people like option 2, and prefer option 3 to option 1.

But you can buy fpga boards with pcie bridges, doesn't it solve the problem ?

Also the main problem that prevents fpga's being used for all kinds of cool stuff is that it's really hard to program. And many companies are trying to solve it - yet without great success.

And to solve this problem(in a decent but not in the most efficient way), one doesn't have to have the internals of the fpga, no?

> why many middle eastern countries generate so many young angry jihadists

This is akin to wondering why Europeans generated so many young angry crusaders. The term jihadists denotes a religion and a region. Its associated with Middle Eastern countries by definition. Angry young militants from other religions and regions are given different names.

If we look at objective measurements of violence, like murder rate by country [1], we can see that the Middle East is not particularly violent, rather its on par with America. It is harder to find meaningful information on militarism. We do know that the Middle East was host to 3 of the 4 world conflicts that killed more than 10,000 people in 2014 [2]. All of these conflicts have included significant foreign and local involvement. Their causes are complex. In my opinion, they are driven by a desire to control the world's most valuable resource (Oil!) not by cultural factors.

Finally, it is worth noting that Americans use the word Jihad to mean holy war, but in the Middle East the word does not have the same violent meaning [3].

I'll take you more seriously when you cite some of these studies or at least link to articles which cite them.
I'm personally not convinced why the three points you raised are affecting blacks more than anybody else.

Ie - they are all unquantifiable things with no clear bearing on blacks vs poor whites or other disadvantaged groups.

Yes we have hard figures - such as the murder rate (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/josh-sugarmann/murder-rate-for...):

The homicide rate for black male victims was 31.67 per 100,000. In comparison, the overall homicide rate for male victims was 7.13 per 100,000. For white male victims, the homicide rate was 3.85 per 100,000.

So I fail to see how behavior by the criminal justice system forces black men to kill each other at a rate that's almost 10x of whites.
CloudFlare is build on top of OpenResty which is basically stock nginx with ngx_lua and a bunch of other modules built in. I would argue that if you want it to be, nginx can be much better at DDoS mitigation. You can use the modules limit_conn and limit_req to control how many connection individual IPs can make to your server for basic control.
Oh precious irony of clicking on this in HN in a bored moment!

I think you'll do better if you find ways to make your clarifying restrictions be imposed upon you, rather than attaining them through willpower.

I do find 2-3 day email and internet fasts useful from time to time, but the internet is also a source of much inspiration.
> Nothing can be assumed based on group membership. Whoever does is the true racist.

Yeah exactly, and there are tons of these people, and at the moment they tend to have a lot more money and power than the people they make assumptions about.

Promoting individual rights doesn't do enough, because we've had such a long history of not promoting them. You have to acknowledge race in order to fight the racists of the world.
"that's a necessary cost that comes with the debugging capability"

The problem with polygamy in a peaceful and prosperous society is there will be huge inequality between the most attractive and the least attractive in terms of the ability to find sexual partners, which will be a strong factor in social unrest. Potentially there is a correlation between countries permitting polygamy and terrorism. Monogamy and polygamy are two sides of the same coin. I think over time society will choose the one best suited to its current circumstance, but it can take a while.
No, it's kubism.
> the standard places no restrictions on what compilers can do for such constructs.

But it does list some suggestions on what could happen, one of which is "behaving during translation or program execution in a documented manner characteristic of the environment", which is what most C programmers expect of the language. Violating this implicit assumption is what makes compilers user-hostile; choosing the worst possible behaviour, just because the standard does not define it, is never the right thing to do.

Cute. I take it that the "cell" version is a Voronoi diagram, and the "triangle" version is its dual?
Also, I'd argue that half the time trying to write things in a portable manner in C is drastically less readable. Look at the madness that ensues when you try to do something as simple as a bitwise rotation, for instance.
Big Brother Starts Here - Apple

I find it interesting that Apple doesn't allow comments on their youtube videos..
I'm sure he's right, but I'm not so sure he actually proved it. The real question is what happens when you deference a null pointer with '->'. He doesn't show us what the spec says on that, meaning there's a gap in his logic, leaving the quoted sentence in bold unsupported. I don't know but would bet that bolded sentence isn't even necessary. The undefinedness probably comes from the silence of the spec on what happens when you dereference a null pointer with '->'.

As he showed, a null pointer cannot point to any object, and since a lvalue that does not designate an object gives undefined behavior, saying '* podhd' would clearly give undefined behavior when 'podhd' is a null pointer.

However, instead of '* podhd' evaluating to a non-existant object, we have 'podhd->line6' asking for the object some particular offset from a non-existant object. It's entirely possible that a sufficiently insane spec might actually define such an operation.

What the spec says on that point is the key. That's where the undefinedness must come from, but he doesn't talk about it or quote from the spec on '->'. He just assumes it, which leaves his original point unproven, even if it is correct.

So why would anybody want to define legal behavior for dereferencing a null pointer with '->'? Well, some people start college funds for children who have yet to be conceived. If non-existant people can have account balances, why can't non-existant objects have properties? It's crazy, but it's not crazy like Intecal, where syntax errors are legal statements that you actually use for productive purposes. http://catb.org/~esr/intercal/ick.htm#Syntax-Error See also the statement "COME FROM".
From your link:

> "This partly reflects racial differences in the drug markets in black and white communities. In poor black neighborhoods, drugs tend to be sold outdoors, in the open. In white neighborhoods, by contrast, drug transactions typically happen indoors, often between friends and acquaintances. If you sell drugs outside, you're much more likely to get caught."

Makes sense to me. I cannot recall ever being offered drugs by a white person while I was walking down the sidewalk. (While hanging out on the beach is another story...)
>African Americans serve virtually as much time in prison for a drug offense (58.7 months) as whites do for a violent offense (61.7 months). (Sentencing Project)

I think the fact that blacks are given much less lenient sentencing is enough to put the game largely in the oppressive class's favor, and to call the system racist.

And, if purely by statistics, it's hard to argue that this skewing is because all of these people are drug dealers (if they're all drug dealers, who are they selling to?)

Sure the fpga companies don't want anybody to know how to build their software. Building good fpga's is not that hard(if you're intel, or quallcom or any other of the big guys). But building good, efficient software is very hard, takes decades and tens of thousands of customers designs to run it on.
Even in C, it's not insta-portable. In the quote author's case, the UI framework was entirely deprecated, basically requiring a large re-write to use the new API, to keep the same functionality.

If you wrote some C code that ran on Mac OS 9, for example, you'd eventually be forced to upgrade, because eventually, there are no computers running OS 9 anymore.
What is the 'them' in this case? Just curious.
I don't think its a matter of "multiple big things". Its a matter of having multiple solid options.

say you have:

x = 1
x = 2
bar()

You set a breakpoint on the call to bar and examine the value of x. You would expect it to be 2, but what if the compiler had decided to move the allocation of x = 2 to after the call to bar? There's no reason why it shouldn't. You'd then see x = 1, which would confuse you.
There are easier ways to deal with the drought than abandoning Los Angeles. For instance California could cut back its almond production:

http://www.slate.com/articles/technology/future_tense/2014/0...

From the article:

"California almonds use a stunning 1.1 trillion gallons of water each year, or enough for you to take a 10-minute shower each day for 86 million years (using a low-flow showerhead, of course)."

I think the answer is for California to embrace the fact that it's a post-agricultural society and refocus resources on its human capital rather than it's increasingly unproductive farmland.

When I was in elementary school, I got my teacher to write away for some tomato seeds that had been in space on the LDEF. And we got them!

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

They sent some of them to schools to let kids try planting tomato seeds that had been in space alongside ones that had stayed on Earth, to see if we noticed any differences (or any lack of viability of the space-exposed seeds). Both of them grew well for me. My mom wouldn't let me eat the tomatoes from the ones that went to space, though.

By the time of the LDEF experiment the message seemed to be, not that the radiation would likely improve the plants, but that it was useful to know whether it would damage them appreciably. It's interesting to contrast that with a time when it was common to think it would likely produce useful mutations.

The analogy breaks if you take it too far. This is politics, not medical science. Good clinical trials will discover facts about the world. Good politics will change the world, making previously discovered facts irrelevant.

Threatening one another into taking action is exactly how progress happens in a market economy. Somebody is always threatening to drive somebody else out of business. Either you disrupt or you are disrupted. And since we probably won't be getting rid of this ruthless system anytime soon, I'd rather want to see the good guys drive the bad extortionists out of business rather than the other way around.
I read that article, and articles like it. They all leave out one thing, and I'll get hammered for stating this, and it's only my hummable opinion.

As much as people want to to homogenize the sexes, their are differences in factors that determine desirability.

Powerful women(degrees, income, position in society, etc.) are judged differently
in my surrounding(I said in my surroundings, antidotal, don't kill me); than powerful men.

Are a lot of women are attracted to powerful men--yes, for the majority. Unless the man has horrid genes, and even then they line up. The man with the biggest cave still seems to attract to most--especially later in life.

It works in the opposite direction for women. I have never met a man(except in scripts, on t.v.) that judges women on degrees, or wealth, or status in society. I have never heard a man say, "I find women in power/authority sexy!" I don't know why. I hope it changes. I just think we forget about millions of years of biology--men are looking for good genes, a kind disposition--maybe someone to raise the spawn?

Yes, it's wrong. I'm just tired of hearing "Why is she single--she is so accomplished?" Yes, I hope it changes.
Go ahead kill me. There's too many examples to list, and it's politically incorrect to even talk about. Again, I'm sorry if I offended anyone.
On the list of modern ideas, you might also want to toss in the pile women being less war-prone, especially over there if nothing else.

LSD amplifies beliefs and makes the user highly receptive to external ideas. Before the concept of a "bad trip" and the idea that LSD is "dangerous" became common, very negative experiences on LSD were anecdotally not frequent. In fact, most people do not have a bad first trip for similar reasons, as they don't know what to expect and aren't familiar with the sensations, and thus do not try to control them, getting into a pilot induced oscillation, further amplified by the fear of going into the dreaded bad trip that they've heard so much about. I suspect that Hofmann's experience was not so bad.
To provide a second opinion: for me it was probably one of the best books I read last year -- extremely lucid writing and very lively. I think I would have loved it in high school.
