I don't get why that is. The plane was designed in the 70s, when personal computers were the size of closets. Even if it was tight, I can't imagine new tech taking up more space than the old tech did, even if there's more of it.

Hi guys.

I would like to present you a new better solution we've developed to build websites.

The website is hosted your own server, but it's powered by our cloud services. The management tools (that's almost 95% of a typical CMS codebase) and the database are seamlessly provided by the cloud. This improves security, maintenance and helps you get new features more frequently. Also you can run custom code on your server (typically HTML, JS and CSS and now PHP). Our solution takes the best from the hosted and self-hosted worlds, and we think it's awesome.

What do you think of this approach?

If the article has caught your interest, it is definitely worth having a read of Pete's biography (A Champion's Mind: Lessons from a Life in Tennis).

I would add that it is also worth reading Agassi's biography (Open: An Autobiography).

Together, these books provide a unique insight into life at the top of the game - and the impact this has on their lives. As a bonus, the views are from two players who were very different characters, were viewed in the media as being very different, and brought the best out in each other.
Any information about how it's actually performing?

It's a purpose built close air support platform so it naturally has very good low speed manoeuvrability. It was designed in part to replace the A-2(? the prop driven one, number might be wrong) and was designed to kill Soviet tanks (among other things) in an era where smart munitions weren’t the default (so you had to get close to have precision) and "our close air support can't get close enough without risking our own troops" was a real problem in Vietnam. As a requirement of being expected to go head to head with Soviet tanks it was designed to get very shot up and still fly away.

All this winds up translating really, really well to a modern (asymmetrical) conflict these capabilities let it somewhat overlap roles with attack helicopters. It has better loitering and payload capabilities, while being much harder to hit with an RPG. Even if it takes a direct hit there's a pretty good chance it won't go down. Another perk is that bullets are cheap compared to bombs and you can swiss-cheese someone without the explosion caving in the roof of the elementary school two streets over. The F35 is not a close air support aircraft so even if it's employed in that role, it won't fit it as well. You can drive a nail with a pipe wrench, but that doesn't mean it's a direct replacement for a hammer.

TL;DR: The A-10 can fulfil most of the role of an attach helicopter without nearly as much risk. A10:F35 = grapefruit:tangerine
> So far not a problem, but the email you get back after sending the password reset request contains a link to a page that allows you to cancel the request (not sure the genius who had this idea)

Did you set the recovery email the same as the main email? Cause I only get password reset to the recovery email.

If you used the same address for recovery email, then it defeats the whole purpose
Doubtful. Having only one usable register (plus another non-addressable "backup" register) places a (IMO) insurmountable constraint on running any multiuser unix-like kernel.
Depends on the frequency. Clouds are famously transparent for ultraviolet for instance. The sun floods the sky with it of course, but there's plenty of choice. But at the ranges we're talking about 10-20, maybe 100km ... yeah pretty much unjammable by clouds. Sufficiently intense rain or something like a snow storm would probably work though.
That is the point. They went through the process of tightening down the type system by invalidating automatic casts and making void* less promiscuous and then they break that whole philosophy with a magic literal "0" that can work as a normal integer or as an address placeholder for any pointer even though it won't necessarily evaluate to address zero. At that point why can't I assign "0" to a float too and enjoy some more magic there?
Yes, but that's the usual copyright rule isn't it? You can't get around copyright by search and replacing "Harry Potter" with "Barry Potter." And it's well understood that the less creative the expression, the less has to be different for a work not to infringe. I'd say changing a couple of parameter names wouldn't do it, but changing the syntax of the declarations surely would.

Well, I was able to change his password to a completely new one. Very concerning, not sure if it still remains that easy.
That game looks really great. I've played so many roguelikes and was instantly interested. Reading a good post mortem was another plus to check it out.

Then I remembered the general problem with commercial games.. went straight to the FAQ and searched for "linux".. bummer.. I guess somehow I expected a roguelike to work on Linux :)

I will observe the game and hopefully someday a Linux version will emerge. Good luck to your quest as indie dev!
Impressive that you can find such low quality article. Reads almost like it was written by a machine.
Am I going to be the only one who is going to question the source here? The author has a clear opinion on the F-35 that he interjects inbetween the comments and War is Boring's previous reporting on the F-35 have been mostly trying to take it down a couple of notches. Everything here is based on an unnamed source and a document which may or maynot even exist.

According to Aviation Week, a reputable defense and aviation source, the F-35 has been doing loading tests. Meaning that if this report and dogfight happened then it was against a electronically limited F-35 against a platform that is very mature and limits understood. Here's a link to the story in question: http://m.aviationweek.com/defense/f-35-flies-against-f-16-ba...

I know HN frowns on "me too" responses but I am in the same boat. I'm heavily dependent on GMail right now and each time I see a story about someone having troubles on Google's non-charging (I hesitate to say "free") services I make a mental note to find a paid alternative, but never follow up.
What is false or lazy about this? The service is free; Google makes money selling ads to users. Is this in dispute?

Pointing out that Google has little incentive to support it's users in a post about getting little support from Google seems very on-topic (but perhaps unoriginal) to me.
False dichotomy, and just a plainly dumb and lazy statement.

To sell to advertisers Google has to get people to use its search engine and other products. To do that it has to treat users like customers in that it would rather have them be happy than not happy, at least unless it costs them too much. This is precisely the relationship that other businesses have with their traditional, simple customers.

From memory, "minimum" was the term used by his friends. It's more about them than the way the "author sees the world".

I think you're reading too much into someone's exploration of a particular situation. It remains an opportunity for you or anyone else to run through the expenditure of any of those other pricepoints you mentioned.

The second technique that they present here is the generation of true holograms (we have to use "true" nowadays, with all the products falsely marketed as holograms on the market). This technique is equivalent, or arguably superior to controlling the direction of emitted light as in a light field display. It seems they do this by projecting the interference pattern on a flat surface.

The wavefront generated by a true hologram contains not only arbitrary directional information, but also complete "positional" data, ie. changing with distance from the screen. The main thing that's prevented us from making true holographic screens is the massive resolution that they require (relative to displayed wavelengths), and it seems that the resolution they've achieved here is enough to create simple low-resolution holograms, though I don't see anything preventing the exact same technology from creating larger, more detailed holograms.
TIL that the technical term for those is "numeronyms"[1].

Google sends the recovery information related emails on the recovery email address. So they won't be going to the account that is not accessible to you (I prefer to say that instead of hacked). And the link to cancel the request is indeed a good idea, because if someone else submits a password reset request, then you must be able to cancel it because you did not initiate it. Otherwise, you will end up losing your account to the real initiator of the request.
The password reset process bypasses 2 factor authentication (as of April of last year).
Indestructible and deployed against weakly defended targets equals plenty of missions.

Typical would be those propaganda leaflet runs. Yes, you can make a lot of "bombing" runs under those conditions with great mission count stats etc. Under front line initial attack conditions the plane wouldn't survive anyway, so send it after individual trucks and convoys and stuff like that. Basically targets you'd send a cheap attack helicopter to if the chopper were in range.

There's nothing necessarily wrong with deploying a weak plane against weakly defended targets, other than the mantra there shall be only one plane that does everything for everyone perfectly etc etc.

Between attack helicopters and drones and cruise missiles its hard to find a purpose for an A10 or a F35. Generals/Admirals always prepare for the last war, and ground attack fighters are about as useful as battleships, carriers, and horse cavalry in 2015.

Its very interesting that 70 years ago sending a P-51 up against a B-17 and having the P-51 win the dogfight wouldn't be very interesting story, but in 2015 sending a daytime air superiority fighter like a F-16 up against a F-35 strike bomber and having the fighter win only surprises the people who drank the marketing kool aide that it'll do everything for everyone. The laws of physics and aerodynamics cannot, however, be fooled. Also its very unfair to send one $10M plane up against one $100M plane... they should have sent 10 F-16 up against the F-35 to be economically fair. Or launched over 200 cruise missiles at the airfield the F-35 is based at and see who "wins", who has control of the air when the enemy literally no longer has airports or planes or air force personnel.
"Rolls Royce builds the lift fan for the F-35B"

I did wonder why the decision was made to go for the STOVL version of the F-35 when the new carriers are obviously large enough to support CATOBAR - that explains it perfectly!
Fair enough, I just tried it out and it indeed works, I was a bit ignorant ;).

I'll see if this will work out for me. Don't know what any pitfalls could be by setting the color scheme in the terminal. At least it's annoying if you use different terminals on different systems, you'll have to configure them separately, you can't put it in your dotfiles repos or something. Thanks anyway, will look into it!
If you can specify those invariants in your code in a concise and declarative way, minimizing the chance for bugs, then great. Thats not how it usually works though. Also, how do you want to perform foreign key checks outside of the db in a way thats fast?

> they smell suspiciously similar to hacks (the bad kind) if a hack could be defined as over-fitting a solution to a problem.

Dark matter is not over-fitting - as described in article, it does not explain galaxy radial velocity as well as MOND. In addition to that, dark matter explains much more and successfully predicted few things. While MOND only described galaxy radial velocity better, but completely failed all the other things. So MOND seems to be the overfitting one.

Physics have theories that are best so far, nobody claims they are 100% proven.
Hm, I think 'one big marketplace' is how people originally thought about messaging online. I don't need WhatsApp, I have SMS. I don't need Snapchat I have WhatsApp. I don't need Facebook, I have Twitter.' However, horizontal differentiation in messaging and social has allowed people to use different tools depending on context. In fact, it's currently a bit silly to think you'd spam all your message or social apps at once using a single app or service.

I don't really feel there is a natural monopoly with today's tech when it comes to carsharing. This goes back to my first couple of points where ultimate coordination and reduction of friction may be better served by local/human players to some extent.
I think it's an interesting approach but it would help if you could explain more clearly what parts you host and what parts the user hosts
I can't agree with many facts in that article:

> "[VPNs are] used by around 20 per cent of European internet users they encrypt users’"

I think it is more like 2%. I don't know anyone but me who uses a VPN. I'd even say that if I picked 100 people I know, less then 20% know what a VPN is.

Furthermore, the article makes IPv6 sound bad. If I didn't know what IPv6 and VPNs are, I might think it IPv6 is bad, too. I'm also interested in knowing which VPN softwares they tested. While I'm certain that old VPN Softwares leak IPv6 IPs, I can't say that for all VPN softwares I use: OpenVPN (on Linux and Tunnelblick on Mac) and Mac's built-in VPN software (which supports L2TP over IPsec and PPTP). It is really a shame, though, that my VPN provider does not support IPv6, yet.

The only thing that really leaks my real IP is WebRTC. Thanks to WebRTC, everyone can see my real IP address and I can't disable in google chrome. If you want to check what information your VPN is leaking, checkout: https://ipleak.net/

If you need all the features of Gmail or Inbox, probably not. If you can get by with what IMAP has to offer, FastMail has been very solid for me. I pay about $50 a year for a single account, which can support lots (unlimited?) domains and addresses (both sending and receiving). The web UI is nice, and the iOS app is pretty good, too. They also blog a lot about what they are doing on the technical side, and seem really invested in the future of IMAP and open source. They have a serious focus on speed. Spam filtering I would say is like a B-, there are some really obvious things that seem to get through no matter how much I train it. Support staff has been helpful when I've needed it, though.

The killer app for these modular reactors is to scale with the same footprint: If you have the infrastructure to house one of these boxcars, for the town's first factory, why not 10 boxcars on the same site once the town grows in population.

That's what you can't do with solar - with solar you already have a big footprint to power that first factory, and your footprint increases proportional to power use. 21 century calls for scaling roughly 20x = 2x (population growth) * 10x (rise in developing worlds livining standards). I don't want 20x solar footprint.

The game itself I love. But I have some issues with it's implementation.

To be specific, it maxes out the CPU even when it's not doing anything. Given that it's supposed to emulate low-level hardware, at very slow speeds, and does not have any demanding graphics, I fail to see why it should do that.

(It's something I've seen happening in more games as of late, actually. For example, Desktop Dungeons - a very fun game which has no business demanding anything from my computer since it's turn-based, uses sprites, and barely animated. And yet my laptop heats up as soon as I open the game.)

In fact, it's a bit ironic, given that the whole theme of the game is squeezing out performance out of bare metal hardware, and I admit that I'm more annoyed by it for that somewhat irrational reason.

+1 to @jbeda, but let me offer some comments for the avoidance of possible confusion among potential Weave users.

Weave aims to deliver a completely portable network. In other words if you create an application using Docker container and a Weave network, that should be able to run anywhere. And all this should be 'magically simple'. Once you have decided where to run your app, you may wish to trade portability for performance gains. For example by using GCE networking (or Azure, or ...).

To date Weave achieved portability by sending some packets (inter host) through user space. This has big benefits in terms of ease of use eg. dealing with wide area networks, multicast and firewalls. But under load it performs worse than kernel-only models.

We now have Weave "fast data path" - http://blog.weave.works/2015/06/12/weave-fast-datapath/ ... This aims to deliver close to line performance with portability and extreme ease of use.

There may of course be yet more optimisations that end users wish to investigate. If you are willing to sacrifice some portability you could certainly make use of fast networks provided by a specific public cloud. We haven't yet seen a strong need to support this, but it is certainly a reasonable thing.

(Disclaimer: I work at Weaveworks)
