Rothstein filed a lawsuit and a federal judge in Illinois ruled against him for booking under phony names.

If the falsified names was a legitimate grievance by American Airlines, it's interesting that NYPost chooses to leave "fraudulent" out of the story's title and instead, buries it at the bottom.

I believe Mark Cuban still has his AA lifetime pass. I don't know if he books false names to game the unlimited pass to his advantage.

Someone I regularly receive mail from has an address of the form forenamesurname@aol.com or ForenameSurname@aol.com, depending (I think) on which device they use. Gmail will treat one as spam, but not the other.

To stop the trapped emails ending up in the spam folder, I had to create a custom filter: simply marking mails as 'not spam' in the spam folder does not do the job.

And the filtered mails now have a yellow banner plastered across them saying "This message was not sent to Spam because of a filter you created."

I'm going back to Mutt and my ISP's mail server.
In some cases unsubscribe links can be used to determine if a targeted email address is actively monitored or not. As a result it's not a good idea to click them for email that you don't remember soliciting.

I use Alfred too, almost entirely just to do "Sleep" and "Lock", which Spotlight - for no very good reason - doesn't let you do. If Spotlight could do those, I'd uninstall Alfred: even though it does many wondrous things, I just never remember to use it to do them. I'm certain this app would fall into the same category for me.

"Taxicabs are an essential part of the urban transportation infrastructure,

cream skimming, the loss of economies of scale and scope, and
destructive or excessive competition, collectively producing demonstrable
deleterious economic and social consequences. "

Furthermore, Gmail is not to be trusted to forward email properly anymore. I can't figure it out exactly, but emails to hello@venn.lc randomly get non-forwarded to my personal email. This has caused us to miss out on a few six digit deals, which is completely insane, because it seems like the type of rule to never fail.

The US has a murder problem

The US has a gun violence legitimization problem. Yes, other countries have guns. But America has a particular culture surrounding the idea that shooting someone whom you percieve to be a threat is a reasonable thing to do, and moreover you're likely enough to encounter this situation that it's worth arming yourself beforehand.

Whenever one of the controversial police shootings happens, there are plenty of commentators on hand to say how the victim deserved it (and therefore his grieving relatives should shut up and stop complaining about the police). But this attitude isn't limited to the police, it's part of wider American society. So whenever two people get into the kind of stupid altercation that in other countries results in black eyes and lacerations, in the US somebody might pull a gun. Undoubtedly this makes a lot of domestic violence situations worse.

The US concept of "right to life" is applied really narrowly, leaving both judicial executions, police shootings, and wider acts of negligence in public safety untouched.

Not to mention the racism problem. You don't need guns for this, other forms of attempted mass murder are available: http://time.com/3942688/black-church-burning-mount-zion-ame-...
Google does not specify any reason, the mail just silently gets dumped in the spam folder. If these were first time contacts it would be one thing but they're definitely not.

I guess this is Google's way of telling me that I should switch to Gmail if I expect to see my mail being delivered.

Big Ionic fanboy here, but it's not all sunshine and rainbows. You absolutely need Crosswalk if you want to publish on Android. The default WebView performance blows, and is so inconsistent. We have two LG G3's with different WebView versions!

There are a few downsides though. Added complexity/possibility for bugs, and APK size.

The Crosswalk website says it should add 10-15MB to your. In our app, it's adding over 55MB to the installation size. These numbers are based on unminified JS/HTML (and I think we still have some outdated resources sitting in www/img/), but iOS: 18.0MB, Android: 78.4MB.

And then there's the additional bugs. Did you know localStorage is completely broken in the current "stable" release of Crosswalk? Once you kill/reopen your app, all storage is cleared. You'll need the latest Canary build if you want localstorage to work (and who knows what's broken in that build).

Two of the people that I've had this issue with are here on HN, I'll ping them so they can chime in on their end of the issue, as for examples I'm not quite sure what you're looking for. Random messages get marked or pass through without any apparent reason for this.

TL;DR - Make sure your DMARC config isn't making your messages look like SPAM.

One one of the sysadmin professional organization mailing lists, email from one of the people speaking for the organization started to be marked as spam because the person had DMARC instructions on their domain, but messages remailed from the mailing list server weren't authorized. In this case, Google's mail servers were acting as instructed. I sent the person copies of the headers showing why Google's mail servers were taking this action, as, apparently, did a number of other people. The person became irritated and decided that people who use Google's mail servers needed to fix their own problems.

If your DMARC configuration is causing your messages to be marked as spam, you really should look into that.

If you appear to speak for a sysadmin professional organization, and your DMARC config causes your email to be marked as spam, you really need to fix that, and consider that blaming the recipient mail servers does not do good things for your credibility.

Of course, there are plenty of things that can go wrong other than DMARC, and some of those might well be Google's fault. You can typically track down the reasoning for a Google mail server spam decision from the headers of the delivered message.
I just checked the most recent 200 items in my gmail spam folder, and every one was an actual spam message. The article has no information to help explain what kinds of problems he was experiencing. I conclude that this is possibly false and certainly useless.
The root cause is googles lame spam detection algorithm, I'm not in a position to debug it for them but clearly they're not doing their work properly if mail that is both clearly not spam and between parties that have previously had contact already gets marked as spam. It's super annoying because obviously I can't even monitor the other side, only by being persistent about follow up and/or lucky coincidences did we realise that gmail is the culprit.

Ask HN: What do companies think of programming bootcamps?
Hi everyone,

I'm currently taking an online Ruby on Rails bootcamp with www.gotealeaf.com and I'm a bit over 50% over the bootcamp.

I'm at the point where I feel comfortable building a small rails app and slowly adding more around the bare bones of it to make it somewhat secure and scalable.

I chose tealeaf because they seemed to have the more in-depth curriculum of all but I'm still wondering whether this would actually get me a job somewhere?

At the moment I'm working on my own project (and coding it myself) and my goal with the bootcamp wasn't full-time employment, but it feels as though it's a promise that many of them make.

Also, after some searching, "junior" positions aren't very frequent, and since that's usually what they say you'll be qualified for, is there an over-supply of "bootcamp devs" for startup to choose from?

Thanks!

> But I found them to be working OK in Chrome on Android, so I thought I could give it a try.

They probably would have run well with the Crosswalk browser plugin, then. It's basically bundling the latest version of Chrome within your app, so all your users have a consistent and up-to-date WebView, instead of whatever the OEM decided to lock it at.

Of course, that doesn't fix every issue, and adds a few more of its own. But really, any non-Crosswalk benchmarks/performances tests on Android can be simplified to: It's slow as hell.

Ban the sale of new guns to the public but allow secondhand sales. That cuts off the gun manufacturer money to the NRA; leave it a few years to bed in and the politics change. Then ban moving guns across state lines, and allow states, cities and counties to impose their own bans or permitting regimes. That would probably suffice.

I was using Hushmail for email up until 3 months ago. I had to switch to Gmail because my emails were randomly going into spam folders of Gmail users. Including users that had previously emailed me (so they should have already been in the very unlikely spam list).

I believe it is just a well meaning extension of Gmail's spam filter but it has real anti-competitive results. I had to take the pragmatic course of action but I now view email as inherently unreliable.

If any Google employees are here, consider adding the rule "if email address in (list of emails addresses sent to) then NOT SPAM". It would make a lot of people's lives easier.

One logical statement doesn't have to support another logical statement. We wouldn't be able to get logical paradoxes such as the Paradox of the Court without conflicts in logic...

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

With regards to quitting a job without finding another, taken rationally you could argue that the individual has decided that in order to have the positive outlook required to land a new job they need to remove themselves from a negative environment they find themselves in. Such an outlook is logical, it recognises that emotional state has a large impact on confidence, and that confidence is a very useful attribute for landing a new job. Of course it could also be much simpler than that, that the individual just wants to improve their emotional state in the short term, not all logic has to apply eternally.

That's just a basic example. A more complex example is what we understand by 'truth'. To me, we know when something is true because we feel it, or in other words truth has an emotional response. Is that your experience also?

I can tell you that my opinion is very well educated, and predicated on (literally) years of research that begins with Madison's original 19 amendments, but as it's a matter of opinion, I can't prove that my opinion is more right than the other guy's, and I try to keep that in mind as much as I'm able.

Danke, for appreciating the effort I'm making at least.
This may be an unpopular opinion but I think Rahul Yadav was made a scapegoat for all the VCs who put in too much money into housing at too high of a valuation. Yadav has his flaws -- but they are mostly childish, not evil. He gave the so-called adults a perfect excuse to hide behind but it still doesn't excuse the Board for their key decisions related to scaling, burn etc.

As for Rahul Yadav, I think he would have done well to find a person he really respects and to listen to him. Zuck did that with Andressen(no, I'm not saying he's Zuck; just that having a close mentor can really make a massive difference.) The Board could have helped here in lightly nudging him to find that somebody instead of engaging in constant confrontation.
Not so much the Brady group (which of course joined in) as Josh Sugarmann's Violence Policy Center, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Josh_Sugarmann#Campaigning and especially this quote:

Assault weapons—just like armor-piercing bullets, machine guns, and plastic firearms—are a new topic. The weapons' menacing looks, coupled with the public's confusion over fully automatic machine guns versus semi-automatic assault weapons—anything that looks like a machine gun is assumed to be a machine gun—can only increase the chance of public support for restrictions on these weapons. In addition, few people can envision a practical use for these weapons.

Where of course self-defense is not "a practical use", e.g for bog standard "plastic gun" "assault weapons" such as the Glock.

That's from an "assault weapons" political campaign he had ready for the first screaming headline abuse of one, conveniently in the following year: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stockton_schoolyard_shooting
