No, non-allergic (intrinsic) Asthma is a fancy name for a "panic attack" besides that the other causes of non-allergic asthma are commonly various infections, in any case non-allergic is not a chronic condition.

Chronic Asthma or "Allergic" Asthma an auto immune disease in which the immune system triggers a violent response which causes the airways to pretty much close up, which is the actual Asthma you hear about when people say "I got Asthma".

While the symptoms of both Asthmas are quiet similar, the treatment is very different. Yes if you go to the hospital due to a very bad panic attack or have a bad respiratory infection they might put you on a vapaorator which is also used to treat actual severe Asthma attacks but besides that there's nothing much in common in form of treatment, nor should there be because the causes of that Asthma are either psychological or environmental which are quite easy to fix.

Yes, the app is apparently quite insane.

It's classic Strunk & White nonsense, the idea that simpler (even to the point of being simplistic) is always, always, always better, founded on the unfounded idea that removing words is the only way to linguistic correctness.

> It’s totally underground, but that’s OK, too ...

I want as many people to have access to the music as possible, but being underground is kind of a requirement for hardcore music. You don't want it to be an affectation or exclusionary, but hardcore has always been about not fitting in and being on the outside of quotidian society.
In the TV industry, it's well-known that the human eye is unusually sensitive to the color of skin. If a tree is the wrong color, no one will notice. If skin is even a little bit wrong, it looks horrifying.

I've always worried that, being of Northern European ancestry, perhaps my eyes are evolved to be more sensitive to white skin. I know I'm nowhere near as sensitive to color shifts in dark skin versus skin that is close to my own shade.

Does anyone know of any studies on this subject? I'd love to know whether or not my perception is universal or not.

I have a t60 I play around on and the 4:3 is awesome, but man those displays are such painfully low quality compared to an IPS screen.
I got a T400, shoved 8 GB of RAM in there and a 128 GB SSD. Cost me Under $250 including upgrades. The thing is built like a tank, and while the CPU is a tiny bit old it holds up well on Windows 8, and really the only "problem" with that machine is the lack of dedicated GPU (even for non-games).

I will say, all used laptops have badly aged batteries. I get about three half to four hours from a 9(!) cell battery on the T400. That's bad by most metrics but good for the age of this thing.

PS - The matte display and keyboard feel makes it all worth while.

Thanks for those numbers! I couldn't remember the exacts.. Another difficulty of Chrome films where that the color would shift badly if you pushed or pulled it. You could push and pull, but not as much as negative film.

The crazy thing is that Nat Geo shot almost entirely on Kodachrome and their photos remain some of the most amazing ever created. They'd often shoot with just available light as well. Incredible stuff.
I lost all trust and respect for Lenovo after the Superfish debacle. I'm a PC user and wouldn't buy one of their machines on principle. But I wouldn't have said that 6 months ago. Lenovo's user-serviceable and utilitarian design are pretty awesome, and their keyboards are among the best.

Lenovo's batteries really suck. They lose life a lot quicker than Apple's batteries and are very expensive to replace, especially since the primary and optibay batteries tend to die around the same time. At least they're user replaceable.

I'm a fan of Dell's laptops lately. Many newer Dell laptops have good Linux support. Oddly, I think Dell Alienware laptops are great as portable workstation laptops because they're powerful and can stay cool, but YMMV.
Using Photoshop as a "Mobile interaction designer + developer" does not an expert in photography technology makes. Doesn't even count actually -- the issues behind film dynamic range have nothing to do with Photoshop. As for the "darkroom experience", well it doesn't mean much. Plenty of photography enthusiasts don't know their chemistry and physics -- just barely enough to develop photographs.

If you have a specific technical comment about how they could easily optimize dynamic range in those crude early films and didn't (because of racism), then tell it.

If you also think that film companies shouldn't had optimize for the main market for a commercial product regardless. Would even a black film company owner optimize for the 20%, less afluent to buy cameras, US market?

A weird thing to watch is three separate Auckland (New Zealand) to Dubai Emirates A380 flights depart 15 minutes apart, every day. Why such huge capacity on this obscure transcontinental route ? These three flights are really Sydney-Dubai, Melbourne-Dubai and Brisbane-Dubai. I heard from someone that the airport fees mean it is cheaper for Emirates to park three A380s in Auckland for most of the day than the Australian airports.

For as long as this arrangement lasts, it means that these amazing planes are serving the trans-Tasman (NZ-Aus) route every day. Believe me, there is no comparison at all in flying comfort between an Emirates A380 and any kind of 737/A320 (especially given that the A380s are less than half full).
Love the ThinkPads that have the 7-row keyboard and are devoid of trackpads (TrackPoint only), such as the X200. Those and the unibody MBP are the yin & yang of desirable laptops as far as I'm concerned.
Piracy doesn't cause any losses on the whole because it raises the brand image. I wouldn't know anything about Game of Thrones if not for piracy, and it increases my affection for HBO and media as a whole. if not for torrents, i would play outside, not buy GoT.

I think the first hardcore show I saw was an all ages show headlined by Converge when I was 16 or 17, right when they dropped their Jane Doe album. It was total insanity -- kids were hanging off the rafters in the venue and falling 10 feet into the pit, feet first stage diving so people were getting drop kicked, at one point the bouncers tried to stop kids from jumping on stage and formed a wall up front, which resulted in a gang of about ten kids tackling them and punching them in the middle of the set. The venue owners pulled the sound and had to call the cops to break up the brawl... needless to say there were no more hardcore shows at the venue, and the local scene quickly fizzled out due to the insanity.
Love your stories.

Reminds me of a blog post/article I read long ago about how a group of players sorta discoverd rocket jumping in quake and decided to try and use it to get up this massive unaccessible ledge just for the fun of it. Spontaneous unexpected events like this are turkey something special in gaming, I suppose exactly because they're not designed for. I'd agree that mindcraft is fairly good for these type of unplanned happenings. I suppose you could consider it a culture thing.

It's only their own fault...not sure how this is news worthy.
The sane definition of a sensitivity is an allergy to something very specific (so just literal, the persons immune system is sensitive to that thing). Of course that is not the common definition.

In my world, people that are lactose intolerant should just carry some lactase pills and not bother the server about it. They shouldn't conflate their inability to digest a particular sugar with a life threatening condition.

So no, I do not agree that people should express their food preferences to restaurants in terms of self diagnosed "allergies".
Remember that time where you had no idea the racist history of public swimming pools, but still wanted to be treated as an expert on what made things racist?

I've programmed VB3 to VB6 and then when .NET arrived, I unfortunately had to do a few large apps in VB.NET. Let this fucking dog die. There's nothing worthwhile in this language. MS originally was not planning on bringing the retardedness in VB into .NET (I had access to pre-releases of it and message boards where VB.NET was being discussed). A bunch of whiny cunts who no longer matter in the world of programming at all, bitched and moaned about the poor VB programmers who would be soooo confused, that MS conceded to their demands.
That would cause problems when users are renamed. You want foreign keys (which Arango doesn't have?) and transactions, and you also want to make sure that every name change updates all foreign tables. Changing it one place eliminates all possible mistakes, which is why surrogate keys were invented.

The way I like to approach performance issues like these is to cache or precompute de normalized data as needed, and make sure the master data is as clean and normalized as possible. You could have a materialized view, or a trigger that produced the denormalized version, or just store the data is Memcached.
I love how much longer the documentation is than the actual file. That said, I'm also somewhat wary of using forked pgsql and ubuntu images.
A lot of both articles actually comes from this Guardian article: http://www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/2013/jan/25/racism-c...

What's funny is how the two articles interpreted the same fact differently (the one about the 42% flash boost). Priceonomics and the Guardian note that the extra light feature was there so that black subjects wouldn't be underexposed. But buzzfeed says this:

> The ID2 has a flash boost button engineered to add 42% more light on its subjects. Its effect would result in a deliberate darkening of dark-skinned subjects.

That's the exact opposite of what would happen! The extra flash was there so they wouldn't be erased.

That said, I'm still trying to find where Broomberg got his numbers. Did none of the authors of these three articles question the claim that all black people have the same skin tone? I guess the buzzfeed author did as she didn't repeat that claim, only the one about the flash being 42% brighter, but if you think the guy's pulling one number out of his butt, why trust another number?

I haven't had much luck finding any other information about this special South African flash feature (or the magic 42% number).

As someone who just spent two years as employee #1 at a startup before being fired last month, I don't regret it, and while my salary was below market, it wasn't too bad and I had a lot of fun. I went in with no full-time software experience (second job after college, first was a dead end job at one of the big consulting firms) and was able to build a serious set of projects and influence technical decisions that are now paying off—I now have expertise in stacks that people are willing to pay for. I view those two years as building experience and a reputation in the right communities, now I'm cashing in on that.

I don't think I could've gained that same level of responsibility anywhere short of founding my own company, which I considered but ultimately never came up with anything worth pursuing. I'm grateful that those founders were willing to take a risk on me, even though it didn't work out.
I bet Mallory would know.
Interesting article - would love to see more information on AEC tradeoffs - what proximity between mics and speakers can you achieve before the cost in audio quality / performance is too high? There's always the risk of feedback (take a hearing aid for example) The Walkie Talkie type approach, while cumbersome, may be the best served for this application aka press a button to speak.
Servo is trying to answer ambitious questions like "can layout be done as a sequence of top-down and bottom-up parallel tree traversals", "can we GC Rust DOM objects safely", and "how much of a browser engine has to be infected with support for non-UTF-8 strings".

Gecko, on the other hand, will gain Rust in modules that can be changed without replacing the entire browser. I'm happy that one of the first will be the code that supports the URLUtils DOM API. When the C++ code was changed from being just "URL parsing" to supporting segment changes, it came to have way more than its fair share of memory safety bugs. It needs a rewrite and it might as well be in Rust.
Piracy is completely unethical.

He argues that somehow piracy caused innovation in the music industry, and thus the piracy of hollywood will somehow usher in a new era of innovation in streaming video. In some respects its true that Napster brought about innovation in digital music... BUT IT HASN"T STOPPED PIRACY!

There is a ton of more streaming options today, which is great for lawful netizens, we do have a lot of great options. But that doesn't excuse pirates from ethical obligations.

You don't have a right to someone's property just because you think you should.

Maybe I should just take refuge in your fancy-house just because I think it would be morally just because you have a nicer house than I do.

Thats essentailly the argument pirates make, and it doesn't hold water.
you have to remember how hardcore started. it's almost a working class movement. in NYC in the 80s, this was mostly composed of white males. there are a few notable exceptions, like HR from Bad Brains (one of the first legendary hardcore front men, who is Jamaican).

the scene has definitely become more diverse. non-whites and females are more well represented in hardcore than they are in the software industry.

that all said, racism and sexism have basically always been unacceptable in the hardcore community, and blatant racist or sexist behavior at a show would, for better or worse, probably result in having the shit kicked out of you. not that i condone violence, but there are few places in the world where discrimination is so actively discouraged.

there are racist subdivisions and bands, but they are basically considered the Westboro Baptist Church of hardcore.

Society labels it as a disorder and I don't believe that is the case(but to be fair if society was more welcoming and accepting of differences it wouldn't be one, but it is very challenging to live with) - but it IS a difference in how the brain works, we can see that from scans.
i had the pleasure of playing CBGB before it closed, and ABC No Rio before i stopped playing out. i've opened or headlined for a few bands in the documentary as well.

i mostly just want to brag, it is very rare my interests intersect like this. so i'll try to add some value: there is something we can all learn about community from the hardcore scene. regardless of how large it grows or how transient members can be, it is self policing of it's values which remain unchanged for probably 40 years now. it remains original and pure in a way that HN couldn't dream of.
It's a topic that you'll experience halfway through a graduate-level textbook on databases like Elmasri's Fundamentals of Database Systems. No gentle way to do it, and a student has probably been driven away or not well before they read about it.

Most likely they will merge back with Node.js within a few releases.
I use OS X, I think they got a lot of stuff right like key combinations are nice and feel more "first class" than Windows esp. with software like spotlight or alfred. It's not a very good experience overall, lots of stupid stuff like Finder, buggy updates, buggy software (not always apple's fault).
Bindings can leverage the ownership and borrowing principles in Rust to codify comments typically found in a C header about how its API should be used.

Could the Rust compiler make use of design by contract style annotations in the C header? Maybe it could reason that an unsafe block is in some ways safe.

There is a specification language for C called ACSL (which was designed for and is mainly used by Frama-C). Annotations look like:

/*@
ensures \result >= 0;
assigns \nothing;
*/
int foo(int x)
{
if (x < 0)
return 0;
return x;
}

I noticed there are annotations for Rust with the LibHoare library (https://github.com/nrc/libhoare). The example above might look like:

#[postcond="result >= 0"]
fn foo(x: int) -> int {
if x < 0 {
0
} else {
x
}
}

It would be really cool if ACSL could be translated to LibHoare.

Judging by the jagginess and the low resolution of your screen, I'd wager you're using one of the laptops with an integrated GPU that's using an older version of the drivers that's on the Firefox GPU blacklist. This is usually because the laptop maker doesn't bother to update the graphics drivers much, if at all, and doesn't get the improved ones from Intel/AMD/etc. These outdated and buggy graphics drivers cause apps that use hardware acceleration to crash, so Firefox is running with it off on your laptop. Mozilla maintains a blacklist of known bad versions of graphics drivers and will automatically disable hardware acceleration on those machines so that it won't crash. With it off, web pages won't look as good and web fonts won't be as smooth.

Neither my laptop nor my desktop suffer this issue with Firefox, Chrome, IE, etc.
If you're interested in running a fully libre system, any GM45 thinkpad (x200, t400) can be made to run libreboot by following some very thorough guides. If you're willing to go even older than gm45, the T60 and X60 can be made to run libreboot without even opening them up.

In the past few months I built myself an x200 with a brand new 9 cell battery, 128gb SSD, new keyboard, and 8gb ram for less than $200.

Knowing that you're running a fully free system is priceless.
You'd have to make sure you statically link the program, because android uses a different libc than most other linux distros.

I lost all respect for them when I tried using the trackpad on their newer laptops. After a year of use it still took me multiple attempts to right-click on something. My brother just disabled his and learned to use the nipple. I can't imagine how an established company could make an essential part of a laptop that unusable.
