>I disagree here, because the inevitable result of a highly visible series of failed reproductions is a big media hit.

Interesting proclamation.

If a result can't be replicated after many 'highly visible' attempts then the result should be called into serious question.

>The scientific community may be able to poke holes in the reproduction attempt and sort through the damage, but the media and the court of public opinion certainly can't. Not until long after the reputations of possibly faultless scientists have been ruined irreparably.

This sounds like unwarranted fatalism to me. If the result was not reproduced because the experiment was not actually reproduced...I don't see what the issue is here.

>So it's important for the reproduction attempts to be as high quality and rigorous as we would hope the original studies were. And it behooves scientists to make sure that these attempts are legitimate, unbiased and equitable, and to investigate any experimental flaws and biases of the experimenters before the results.

This is why it is critical for any researcher that desires credibility (and more importantly: explanatory power) to detail their work accurately enough that someone else can exactly replicate their experiments in order to provide independent verification of their claims.

The best way to ensure that replication attempts are 'legitimate, unbiased and equitable' is to ensure your work is good enough that someone can actually (as opposed to merely attempting to) reproduce it.

>Misgivings about a reproduction attempt don't indicate denial of the validity of the scientific process, but recognition of the volatility of scientific news media.

Maybe.

>The unfortunate reality is that both sides of this effort, both original researchers and reproduction attempts, are subject to a great number of biases and restrictions. Subjective opinion does deeply affect the lives of scientists, and it's not possible for even the best scientists to live in a bubble of scientific purity and assume things will work out.

This sounds like something scientists need to work towards resolving.

Okay so, the first thing I would do is join this community http://www.reddit.com/r/NoFap. Once you do you will feel alot of social anxiety go away, since it's likely you would be "letting" go of your testosterone that way.

A friend of mine had an addiction and started with this and it worked out so well for him.

Next you need to hit the gym, and start small and try 3 days a week.

Second make some goals about things you want to get done before you reach next year.

Next do deep introspection, think about your self in the third person, and ask your self what you hate about yourself.

Go write it down and spend a everyday on one of those things and chip away at it by breaking it down into smaller tasks.

Lastly Smile people love other people who smile, it makes them more approachable.

Be serious. If it's an emergency you can of course use the toilet on an airplane.

It's just a safety precaution and have seen it ignored many times before.

The issue with hyperloop is that there are no options if there is an emergency which makes the idea impractical.
Great interview. (Happen to agree with BE entirely. ;-)

I like the image at the end of a bunch of little bangs instead of one big (failing) bang. Maybe even if they're synchronized nicely you can get the same effect as an internal combustion engine with many little bangs driving a crankshaft.

That's one way to look at it. Another way to look at it is that Clang/LLVM are the open source compiler that aren't under the GPL and musl is the open source libc that isn't under the GPL.
> Sometimes inability to bear children has been grounds for divorce or--in the case of royalty--annulment

Not just royalty. An annulment means that there was never a marriage…because a marriage which cannot produce children wasn't regarded as a marriage (or as less of one), which suffices to demonstrate a strong connexion between childbearing and marriage.

While I'm pretty sure the legal theory being espoused here has no chance in court, the fact remains that what Sci-Hub is doing is a good thing. Hopefully in a few decades when we finally get sane copyright laws, or open access journals become the standard instead of the exception, we'll be able to look back on this differently.

For those saying "there are open access journals, you aren't forced to publish with Elsevier" you're wrong. If you want a PhD and they require publications, you publish where there is a tradition of publishing or it doesn't count. If you're looking for tenure, they care about the prestige of the journals you publish in. You can make a political statement if you're already tenured, but most don't have that luxury.

Heh it's options writers or buyers (just options market makers in general). A lot of stuff is electronically traded but there are still some very large orders with huge deltas that are put up on telephone calls.

And yeah it makes sense to have an extra prompt pop up if it's an order over X contracts or Y ticks from the market. And I've seen a lot of systems set up like that.

A lot of times traders will just punch the "OK" box and do their trade though.

That's of course if traders are manually hedging their portfolio/trade. A lot of times they just set their portfolio to auto-hedge based on certain parameters (ie at Z deltas or we've moved C ticks in a time period).
This is what we like to call a "figure of speech". It means that we do not believe to be literally magic, but are using hyperbole to describe a situation where something happens and it's not immediately apparent why.

"The Assertiveness Workbook: How to Express Your Ideas and Stand Up for Yourself at Work and in Relationships" by Randy Paterson is the best I've read, although "Crucial Conversations" is very good as well. He discusses the three types of barriers (Stress, Social, and Belief) to assertiveness, and offers specific exercises to work through them. He's also very realistic - for example, he mentions that some relationships will become temporarily more difficult once you start asserting yourself more, but you shouldn't be deterred.

> Maybe this is how DNSSEC works

Not exactly, but it's very similar. DNSSEC has no concept of registrars, and each zone is entirely signed by the same entity.

You'd trust that single entity to inform the registrar anyway, so descentralizing it gains you nothing.

"Today is the first day of the rest of your life." As cheesy as this sounds, it is deeply true. You can choose every day the kind of person you want to be from now on.

I think the psychological baggage of living with your parents, not having a girlfriend and having a degenerative neurological disorder is far greater than the criminal record. There are ways to reduce the implications of the sex offense on your life, as others suggested. But the other things are what will hold you back.

Consider adopting a meditation practice and practice being nice to yourself. Calling yourself "broken goods" isn't helping matters. The way you think of yourself is the way you carry yourself and how other people see you. Seek examples of happy, accomplished people with missing limbs or serious illnesses.

I found that with a decent salary, meaningful remote job, traveling across some of the most beautiful places in the world and eating amazing food, I came to realize I deeply miss my friends, lack having a local community, and a purpose and meaning in what I was doing.

My best advice if for you to seek ways to bring value to other people's lives through what you do. It doesn't have to be selfless, it can be as simple as writing a blog and sharing your journey. It may take a little while to figure out what brings you happiness, but whatever you do, even if you get a freelance/remote job, don't stay inside and work for days without meeting people. Coworking spaces and cafes are a much better alternative in your situation.
ie. they have such an extreme scale that often what's best for them is also unique to them, so doesn't really work/apply/be-appreciated anywhere else. They want sharp folks. But because so many, and because folks at top are so sharp, and because their scale is so gigantic, they want sharp drones. Color inside the lines, just really really really fast and perfect. Getting something 1% wrong costs them millions more than otherwise. Which is different than the mindset of the vast majority of other companies where getting something even 91% right means making millions of dollars more for the shareholders, than otherwise. The rest is details.

I really don't understand why people keep repeating that complaint. Of course, if you don't check the keys you don't get any security.

How is that a problem of the algorithm? And how is that a problem on practice? If you want some real amount of security you check the keys, being them SSL certificates, DNSSEC signatures, or whatever else encryption system people put on place.
I wish the therapy answers were getting voted up higher. The other answers are okay as far as they go, but a therapist is like a personal coach who can help you pick a path and stick to it.

Lifting weights is superficial advice?

It makes every part of your life easier.

- Releases endorphines to make you happy

- Makes you more attractive

- Helps you burn more fat

- Helps your long term health

- Gives you something to put into your routine to have a healthy habit

- When you do it and stick to it, the downside is you have to listen to occasional ignorant comments by people who downplay the benefits of this.

- Your sex drive increases

- Testosterone / you become more dominant

It's not easy either - lifting weights takes a lot more effort than jogging. You're more likely to be characterized as a brute jock, as opposed to biking / jogging where it's all glib hipsters.

The article talks about that second clause almost immediately after mentioning the first.

The argument is that Article 27 says authors have a right to copyright, but Elsevier is not the author of the scientific papers. Of course, I'm sure the legal definition of "author" is pretty flexible.
In many cases, papers from 20 or 50 years ago, which were once the property of small journals run mostly-independently by their editorial boards, are now the property of one of the big journal aggregators, after they bought up all kinds of journals and their archives for relative peanuts.

Dead authors of decades-old basic research originally published their papers where they thought they would be spread widely (and often out-of-band distributed preprints or xeroxes to each-other; it’s not like the authors were excessively worried about copyright or decades-later royalties). But now, through factors entirely out of their control and irrelevant to their original preferences, those papers are being locked away in a paywalled archive to support an aggregator’s rent-seeking.

Century-long copyright is bad enough for books and songs and films. It’s absolutely disastrous for science.

Even today, scientists aren’t publishing in big journals for the “publicity” per se. They’re doing it because they need to for hiring/tenure.

Elsevier and their ilk have basically managed to insert themselves in the middle of a big game everyone was playing where previously money was only an incidental part of the game so nobody paid much attention or considered what would happen if actors with malicious intent got involved. Once firmly in place, they started demanding ransom, and it caught everyone else off guard. Essentially everyone else (libraries, researchers, government grant agencies, universities, the general public) would be happier if they were gone, but for the moment no one knows how to get rid of them.

The tactics employed by the journal aggregators, such as forcing universities to buy bundles of thousands of irrelevant journals they don’t care about in order to have access to the handful with useful stuff in them, are shameless thuggery.

The comparison at the end had a weird effect on me. I remember playing Mario 64 for the first time and thinking the graphics were the tops. But this new one looks so much better. How will I feel in in another 15 years when I see Mario in Unreal 20 or Source Film Maker v15?
Great points.

One thing that bothers me about these "encrypted webmail"-services, is that they all depend on TLS for whatever thin sliver of security they provide. Then they go and use something that's not S/MIME and/or x509 for end-to-end (or whatever kind of) encryption/authentication.

At least leaning on pgp makes sense in because it is already somewhat deployed and in-use.

But since they all fall apart if TLS has a hole, it seems odd to add another layer. The complexity of any other solution for encryption/authentication must surely outweigh the benefits of OurCleverCryptoSystem(tm)?

I'm not aware of any advances that have changed the possibilities of asynchronous secure messaging: you can't have PFS, key distribution is hard.

At least with x509/gnupg you can partner with someone like youbikey, and at least pretend to lower the ux friction and increase the real-world security of the system.

I saw a 3~4yo on an airplane once playing on an iPad (some infinite runner game). He would try to buy everything in the store after each round, probably because he couldn't tell how many coins he had or needed. Most of the time the dialog to pay real money for coins came up, and he would close it.

It was just weird to watch him do that so much.
Well, you wont be doing interesting things unless you do them... So what if you suck to start off, as long as it doesn’t kill you, injure you or get you arrested, pay your penance and give it a shot for a while. If it doesn’t work, then try something else that is interesting. At some point you will be known for doing something interesting or have interesting stories of your attempts of trying something interesting.

Part of the pursuit of an "interesting" lifestyle hopefully will get you into networking situations where you might find friends and maybe more romantic interests that share your pursuits.

Stop waiting to start somewhere, and just start.
From the title and the context of this post being on HN, I expected to see someone reverse engineering Super Mario 64 or Super Mario Bros and using that in the context of UE4.

But this is really just a typical game mod. Someone made some models for Mario and coins and put them in various UE4 tech demo scenes.

That's not to say it isn't cool. it just isn't extremely interesting from a technical perspective, besides the amazingness of UE4 in general.

FWIW, that customer churn and on again off again usage pattern might not be anything to do with your service.

Google are doing it because the risk landscape has shifted from people signing up fraudulent accounts to people stealing existing accounts in good standing and using them to spam. You can rate restrict new free-trial accounts, but it's harder to rate limit long standing good accounts without annoying legitimate users - but once their account is stolen, that means a fair bit of spam can get out before reports come back or we can block the limit.

The zero point something percent comment - most users aren't at your level of proficiency - and we do have to play the percentages here. If 10% of our users get phished and their accounts used for spam, you can't send email reliably through us any more because we'll be on every blocklist in existence.

The vector for accounts being stolen is almost never weak passwords - it's phishing or viruses or password reuse. We just don't see people enumerating passwords. You flat out don't need a super strong password, it makes no difference beyond not using one of the top 1000 most common passwords (unless our entire password DB gets stolen, but that's a different class of risk - whole system vs individual)

Well, we can't guarantee that you don't go ahead and use it on another service of course, but by generating the device access token ourselves, we can be sure that you aren't reusing a password that you are using somewhere else.

You can already do this yourself, we support alternative logins, including one-time passwords - but as I said, it's about the percentages, we need to make it easier for average people so that more accounts are more secure.
