I don't see the big fuss here if people are warned, either as the main package is downloaded or in the post-install configurations screens or in the admin screens, or ...

It comes down to how much time they can afford to spend on release testing for the OSS edition. They have tested the main release extensively, and have tested the patches too, but haven't had/made time to roll together a new full release and explicitly test that so continue to go with "install X, apply patches Y, Z, ..." as the process for new instances because that has been tested.

Full release regression testing can be a long-winded (and therefore potentially time expensive) process. Maybe people who have a problem with the current install process could club together and donate enough to make that worth while doing before the next planned full release...

(of course that is moot if people aren't warned adequately)
Your story doesn't stand up to scrutiny. They were studying animal brain tissue, to the point that chemical sensitivity was important, but giant blunt force trauma wasn't?

Why not use carbon dioxide or nitrogen asphyxiation (both are painless, the latter is 'mental traumaless') which wouldn't damage the animal at all, and which I know for a fact are the preferred methods at my old university (a fellow Ph D student was performing macular-degeneration drug treatment experiments on rabbits).

Your final anecdote is also suspect: (1) no sources. But (2), let's grant it as true: the extreme actions of one individual have never been considered adequate justification for carte blanch restriction of anything.

I didn't see Mario 3 live but it seems pretty insane. In a similar technique of wrong wraps is the glitch run of Zelda 2 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IXEx9zIEoJw#t=288) - the speedrunning community has an insane level of dedication, there are so many of these frame perfect tricks/exploits and it's just like... how do you even discover it!?
Not really. It actually is unclaimed land - the border between Croatia and Serbia was drawn along the middle of a river. The river moved. One country (can't recall which) claims the border is still mid-river, the other claims it follows the original river line, not the new position. This has created areas of overlap and areas of terra nullius - there are a few tiny ones, much smaller than Liberland.

And if no-one claims the area, you can wander in and stake your own claim. Of course, if no-one recognises you, there's not much you can do, and if you don't ally with someone meaty, no-one will stop an 'annexation'. Ultimately it's a jape, but unlike most micronations, it's not stretching the rules - the land really is currently, officially, unclaimed.
Creating multi-game highscore lists in ArangoDB
Maybe it's just me but:

var signupFilter = new Date();
signupFilter.setDate(signupFilter.getDate()-30); // get a timestamp from 30 days ago
r.table('users').filter(function(user){
return user('signup_date').gt(signupFilter);
}).run(function(err, user){
// ... a cursor to stream through the data which can also be converted
// to an array using the toArray method
});

Is a lot nastier than:

db.query('SELECT * FROM users WHERE signup_date > CURDATE() - INTERVAL 30 DAY;', {}, function (err, users) {
// Do stuff
});

No?
I agree with you. The impact of these findings is greatly overstated by the headline, and you make an excellent suggestion regarding a competing explanation about why it might help.

Next study: repeat the study using a "nose" in the outside, or of varying sizes, and see if it helps.

This research is interesting, but it's not front-page interesting.

I thought that too, but no. It seems it replaces the original link with a google url, which is basically a proxy address for that original url. It seems they may cache it, but don't preemptively download it when the mail is received.

http://gmailblog.blogspot.com.au/2013/12/images-now-showing....

Obviously if they downloaded any image linked to an email send to gmail that could lead to a DOS, and be very wasteful in any case. So they wait until you actually open the email. But at least it obscures your IP unless you click on the links.
a small problem could be fact that this area is regularly floded every year.

It is morally illogical to grant non-human values equivalent human moral value. We certainly don't grant it to ameoba, bacteria, the tiny multi-cellular organisms that live on our skin. The micro-wasp (which the aforementioned ameoba is larger than, but which has neurons).

But you can win any argument by first granting that it must be true, which is what you do in your second paragraph.

Agreed. The current incarnation of the US transportation system is also downright unsustainable from a fuel and carbon standpoint, and will lead to various downfalls if something isn't done about it.

As much as I'm a public transportation advocate (I don't own a car, and refuse car rides if a public transportation option is available for the place I need to get to), it's becoming increasingly more difficult to promote this kind of lifestyle with the advent of Uber and other things that have made private gas-guzzling cars even more convenient than ever before. People also just don't like being told what to do and what not to do, even if what they are doing is going to kill their children.

Given the short-sighted nature of people, in general, the only way this is going to change is if we make public transportation more convenient than an Uber. What we need, very seriously, is to make self-driving cars/minibuses running on renewable energy happen as soon as possible. They can then be rigged up to become a "Public Transportation 2.0" system that gets anyone from A to B while dynamically routing and picking up others in-between and avoiding traffic jams from happening in the first place. It would also put the US back on the world map with a brand new, innovative system that's both environmentally efficient, cheaper to ride, and ultra-convenient at the same time.
The future of flying is not flying? Some solution.

Let's try a future that is actually a bit more futuristic, shall we? Imagine, small electric hybrid fuel cell planes that carry less than 50 passengers flying point to point to municipal airports instead of just major hubs. Roomy accommodations, coach is almost as nice a 1st class is today. And the cost is half.

The problem with the future of flying is not environmental or technical. The above is possible. The problem is regulatory (and greed).
Rowlands does a good job of dealing with these two arguments in his book. Like I said, I think it takes careful thinking, and a book is a good conduit for that.

Admin and developer of two Magento based sites here.

Magento has just started posting notifications of these vulnerabilities in their notification center. They sent two messages. One on April 16 and another on April 19. See images of message here http://imgur.com/a/edVGy they did inform us that a press release with the vulnerability was coming.

That said I am annoyed that the patch was from February 2015 and October 2014. If you do not go to this page https://www.magentocommerce.com/products/downloads/magento/
on a regular basis there is no way that I know of to get same day notification of new patches.
Looks quite good
This is not the slamdunk you think it is. If you could ensure the human population lived to exactly 70 years old and didn't suffer during that time, there is a very fair argument it would be a moral imperative to implement this social order since it would be a massive improvement over the current state of world affairs.

Scale down that number to find where you think the line is.

I always wonder why people feel so upset over millions of animals being experimented every year when we kill and eat billions of animals every day.
> Well human have higher moral value because of higher ability of pain, emotions and cognition.

Those are arbitrary categories. Let's say I decide you have lower ability to feel pain, emote and have inferior cognition.

How exactly do you prove me wrong. By grimacing a lot when I cause you pain? Well animals absolutely clearly demonstrate they hate pain, too. Yet, here we are discussing your opinion to the contrary.

Truth is... they don't speak, so we can speak for them whatever is convenient for us.
I think SendGrid initially applied to YC before getting into TechStars. See http://www.quora.com/Why-was-SendGrid-rejected-from-YCombina...
Now I can casually drop in conversation the fact that I have read 2 math articles this month.
That last sentence is rather valid. The US alone has been pumping trillions after trillions into the US and global economy, which has not resulted in general official inflation. But that money went somewhere, and it went into corporate coffers, financial houses, and the private pockets of the wealthy who are all "investing" it like it's not their money, which it isn't really.

I am not sure, but it does not strike me that there is another example of the current type of scenario in all of humanity's history. It's not like the lead up to the 1929 market crash because there are no margin calls since the government just gave away free money and even paid the wealthy and their shell organizations, aka, corporations to steal even more money. It's just unimaginable amounts of money sloshing around in the global market without anything productive to apply itself to. It doesn't want to construct residential in the US because that would depress prices and rents, it keeps being pumped into land and real assets and maintaining artificial housing and rent prices, ....

Although I think there is a great storage of inflation just barely being held back by a policy dam, if that dam doesn't break, I think the outcome, the effect will be a social one. Desperate regimes of the wealthy paranoid about losing the wealth they looted will resort to ever increasing repression to assure their Precious remains with them and their heirs for generation after generation.

Progress is made when there are constraints and problems need solving and things need improving. But what happens when we are all essentially trust fund babies that have no parameters, no limitations, losses are meaningless because it's not money we earned, and "success" is easily seen as such because it is measured by state rather than delta. By all current measures, if you have a successful business / economy no one really cares that you essentially bought the facade of success with your undeserved trust fund / made up money. We can see the effects on the poor, where the impact of our policies are being felt in silent suffering. I suspect the result of at least the last 10 years of policy will be an era of impoverishment not seen in 100 years in the USA in the short term, and another era in human history of stagnation and eventual oppression as humanity turns in on itself if the unearned, and unwarranted wealth is not recalled. Ultimately, what wealth, i.e., money is, is a relative measure of power and especially the US government gave the crooks that defrauded us and almost destroyed America the keys to the vault.
Primitive? Really? Doesn't seem to affect usage rates does it? Its a myth really, one that is perpetuated simply because people think its correct and far too many who like the idea of it being correct don't want to know otherwise.

Maybe Berlin and Germany stand out amongst Europe, but with regards to passenger miles trains are less that seven percent of all travel within the EU [1]. High speed rail does two things, eats up a lot of money and takes riders of slower rail. Even Japan has seen this as when the amount of high speed rail made available increased overall ridership decreased.

there is a lot of romance about trains but in the end they cost more per mile to build, use, and maintain, that even flying, in many areas. Slower than flying except over short distances and less convenient and timely over that short distance compared to cars. Public light rail is a boon doggle in many US cities, the costs to implement are beyond any reasonable time table of recovery.

Freight is king of the rail in the US, even Europe envies its status here and that makes a far greater impact on the environment than moving people

http://www.paraduin.nl/?p=173

Unfortunately, the Paraduin people seem a bit nutty to me. An excerpt from their constitution, which is in Dutch:

"Paraduin is een monarchie. De titel van de monarch is prins(es), voluit Prins(es) van Paraduin. Monarch zijn Prins Ogidius en diens wettige opvolgers. De opvolging wordt bij wet geregeld."

Translates to:

"Paraduin is a monarchy. The monarch holds the title of Prince(ss), in full the Prince(ss) of Paraduin. Monarchs are Prince Ogidius and his lawful successors. Succession is determined by law."

Paraduin itself is something like a religion, they (if there's more than one person, I'm not sure) believe there's a magical parallel universe from which some people are fleeing unto the earth we live on.

> you realize you only use 25% of what you kept and purge once again

The opposite happens too, when you realize that you actually need a tool or an adapter that you just gave away, and they're actually quite expensive!!
There's a less computational explanation for that. Your glasses sit very close to your face, meaning that any scratches are dramatically out of focus; the degradation gets spread over your entire visual field.

Which is not to say that you wouldn't have gotten used to and started ignoring a scratch you could see, because you're right; you would have. But that's not what's actually going on.

They are certainly cool pieces of technology but also expensive ones. The development of the German Transrapid began in 1969, it was declared ready for use in 1991 and then no planned route turned out to be cost efficient. Wouldn't China have bought one there would probably still be none in use. Even the test track in Germany is no longer open to the public since an accident a couple of years ago.
Precisely. A team of decent engineers and competent managers will typically produce good software. And guess what - it will barely matter which methodology you choose to adopt.
Probably not, but it is distinct enough from the south, the northeast, the PNW, and the west coast. I felt the need to localize a bit more than "American accent."

Yes, but if you press 'back' you get a split-second view of the previous page before being redirected to the error page again.

In general, don't use unconditional in-page redirects, whether they be javascript or meta refresh. If you want to do a redirect like that, you can have your server serve a 301 and the browser will collapse history appropriately, but if you must do it in JS then use history.replaceState.

People really like to trash Freud, but you have to put him into context. Before Freud, we had a few branches of psychology: philosophical psychology in England arguing about empiricism vs. nativism, Wundtian psychology in Germany sitting around asking very specific questions that they answered using introspection, and in the States we had the very first blossoming of the behaviorism that would dominate psychology in the States until the '60s[0]. Some of these approaches had a concept of the subconscious, but they all viewed it as a static warehouse for previous experience, and very few people thought about it in a serious way.

Freud's major contribution to psychology was that we actually have a dynamic subconscious that profoundly affects how we live our lives. This aspect of his theory has become so ingrained in our culture that it's hard to imagine the world before Freud. Also, that aspect of his theory has held up over the years.

Also, he got a number of things correct: many of his coping mechanisms have strong empirical support, for instance.

Freud was wrong in detail, but his overarching approach changed psychology for the better.
