Show HN: Likeminder, a social network for your private life
Does anyone know of any reference that covers the actual trade that was done? This implies a seriously off-market x-cry swap. I would be interested in the terms esp notional and rate.

This article doesn't really explain much (other than that GS has savvy bankers which is nice to know)
Surely not. News != novelty value. Whatever happens should be reported.

Besides, all the other tedious stuff that also happens every day of the week, does get reported, including stuff about the Royal family's everyday life and what have you.
Eh, i guess we'll see how it all shakes out in the next 5-10 years. Based on prohibition, the feds are in a tough spot. No support from local and state police, because it's not a crime. That said the feds could bring a lot of resources to bare against individuals.

The targeted individuals would likely be screwed. Probably the biggest risk is Colorado fighting the USA directly. Perhaps it's not interstate trade so the US can't regulate, perhaps Colorado sues for lost tax revenue.
Dick Costolo: Why tech firms are set to face complex ethical issues
A free market doesn't have regulation by definition.

Employers need to at least pay their workers enough to survive otherwise they won't have workers.

I also don't think there's such a thing as a truly unskilled job. There will be competition for workers at some level.
I submitted this because, although it might be hard to believe, I'm young enough that I hadn't heard of it, and only found it during a random link deep dive. It felt like some eldritch internet horror that the people on HN might know about and be able to explain!
Actually, I'm more interested in when a GCC with this patch will be marked stable by one of the distros that I use.
Badoo, London

https://corp.badoo.com/jobs/?jvi=oHWj1fwH,Job

We are currently developing an in-house logging flow that traps hundred of thousands mobile client side events per second, aggregates, processes and stores them in HDFS using Python and Spark, then shows reports and visualisations on our React based portal using D3.

You, the Ideal Candidate, are a passionate and thorough individual who could contribute to the development of some components of this system. You must love exploring new tools, libraries and technologies in various programming languages, but also should convince us you are able to maintain larger and longer term projects. You can write easily understandable code that is so good that even your grandchildren will be using it. In the past you already worked with large volumes of data, experienced scalability problems and explored various data streaming and storage systems to understand their benefits and limitations.

You must have experience in JavaScript and Python, and you should be really good (better than us) in one of those. Experience in one of the JVM based languages is a huge plus. If you also have any side projects or open source contributions, that will be more than welcome.

We assume you know how to work with git, JIRA, regular expressions, etc. Apart from this, you should be really good at unix commands and SQL queries. Every day you will meet and talk with nice and friendly people who are using the system, so you should be good at explaining new features, showing new joiners how to start using it and explaining why things are not working in case of failure.

Badoo is a great company to work in. It gives you everything you need in order to enhance your skills. The problems we are solving are interesting and the tools we are choosing are cutting edge. We will be sending you to conferences and workshops, buying breakfasts and lunches, books and software for you.
Why bother accessing the network via wifi when your chrome browser could provide the same access, or google drive app, or chromecast.
There definitely seems to be more of a tradeoff than people either want to admit, or realize upfront. My teammates were just talking yesterday about a small change that would touch 5 different repos and take some number of deployments to actually be realized. Of course there are ways to justify that sort of downside, but it's not a free lunch.
Why You Shouldn't Be a Young Founder
I was talking about Erlang and Elixir, not Lisp and Elixir. I don't need an introduction to Erlang/OTP, as I've used it for quite a while. You sound a lot like you're in the hyper-enthusiastic newbie phase, though.
I'll just assume that most home routers have backdoors baked in; a number of those have been found by various folks.
I, for one, am glad to learn that we can fix all this by voting more often, or better, or whatever. Now that I think back, my junior high civics class taught me the same thing!
I also do not fully understand, why this is so. But before the Euro started our politicians drummed the big drums for it and repeated like machine guns, that such a situation could never, never ever (I swear!) happen ... But after Greece nearly went bankrupt in 2010, I guess, our chancellor said that this would be the "one and only alternative".

The problem is (as much I understood), that when one Euro country is going bankrupt, this will damage the confidence in the currency as such. But I don't fully understand the reasoning, as I said.

It also could be, that it was the "one and only alternative", because some big German banks would have been severely damaged back then (back then, they held a big amount of the Greek debts) ... Today, only the tax payers will be damaged, what is not so bad ...
That's a strange (and loaded) spin on the original article title.
This is true, but I've seen libraries that lazily use dynamic in their API instead of properly implementing things with generics to accomplish things.

Also, the way the various Microsoft frameworks use strings to specify property and type names drives me insane. It's just like.. "Hey, we have a really nice type and generics system... but here lets hop around that and instead use strings that we hope you never need to refactor, as well as magic method names (ie, RegisterRoutes, Application_Start)". This seems to be getting a little better, but it's still way too prevalent. It's almost like the people responsible for writing C# frameworks had a disagreement over strict typing and decided to just contaminate a ton of APIs to spite the type system.
Haven't read this just yet, but the title makes me think of Gmod. The theaters people host usually include arcade machines alongside other activities that you'd see at a regular movie theater.
Obama has always been a centrist, even though he campaigned as a progressive. Actions are louder than words.
I don't understand this. A language's popularity with large businesses is enough reason to dislike it?
Where can I see the leaked document?
Maybe the best way to ensure access to medicine is by providing economic opportunities to the worlds most impoverished citizens. In other words, if the trade off is say a 10% increase in per capita GDP in exchange for less access to generics, maybe the former is better than the latter?
Obama is not a progressive and I don't think he's been particularly supported by progressives (other than the fact that they tend to vote for Democrats).

The possible exception is his initial campaign when he was an unknown quantity and, like all such politicians, everyone projected their "Hope" onto him.
I use colemak - It's incremental to qwerty and is much easier to learn. As such, I'd argue it's better for developers as cut copy paste shortcuts and most punctuation are unchanged. Ubuntu and OSX both come with Colemak now (minus the caps lock to backspace). IMO it's a much more comfortable layout to use without being too terrible to learn. If you want to learn it's because you're interested. I type on crazy blank keyboards etc now - it's pretty gangster but if you're asking here I'd say you shouldn't bother. If you're driven to learn on your own beyond all logic and reason, then I'd personally recommend colemak. The only area that's tough is pairing with other devs but I can type fine on a qwerty as long as I have visual cues (can see the layout of the keyboard.) I can touchtype on qwerty just fine and fast but I'll make a lot of errors without the constant visual reminder of the keyboard infront of me.

My speed dropped from 115wpm to probably 40 - I just checked and it's back up to 80-90 wpm after about 4 years but my hands hurt a lot less because of the reduction in speed.

I'd say you'd get bigger bang for your buck switching to a kinesis advantage but if you THRIVE ON LEARNING than nobody will stop you from picking up a new layout. The keyboard is our fork and spoon. It is the tool of our daily life. Doesn't that make it worth some time, effort and money learning to use better?
It still has to get to his desk, and that means a lot of Republican support. There's no dodging that.
What about returning a dynamic object? You see a method returning "object" (unless it's yours) you immediately starts to feel awkward (should I cast it to something?).

Or what if I want to check if a property exists in a dynamic object? Catch the exception? Use the ExpandoObject? Will this affect performance?

What about local delegates?

And I just won't start with reflection. Have you seem those snippets on SO? Now compare the same with JavaScript.

Don't get me wrong, I've been developing in C# for some good years in a row and I really like the language. C# traditional OO way of doing things kinda gets you by the hand when design your application. JavaScript is more on your shoulders. It's a tradeoff, you have to be more careful but you also have more power.
The signaling is the first part of the article. The challenge there is avoiding your own persisted connection or polling mechanism. (The solution is to use someone else's persisted connection or polling!)

In the second part they're describing TURN which is a 3rd party packet relay which you bounce your packets through when you can't directly route between two endpoints (usually because of NAT). As in, the call has been signaled, the keys exchanged, and now I just need to get packets of audio between Alice and Bob every 20ms or so and how nice would it be if they could do that between themselves and my servers could stay out of it?!

Broken NAT (the need for TURN) is probably the thing that frustrates me most about the Internet. If any two endpoints could always simply and easily connect just through direct routing it makes a lot of applications lives much easier, and many applications possible which otherwise end up centralized.

This is just one case in point. Just like Skype, the IP isn't even really in the actual "product" but in the hacks it takes to make the product work in the reality of pathologically NAT'd networks.
Fair enough. But the mentality that picks stable over up-to-date tends to never upgrade. I'm stuck supporting rhel5.5, our "new" systems are 6.5

That makes sense. Still, it's good to know VS Code can load a file that size. It seems like the nicer of the web-tech based editors that I've toyed with.
Well, to be fair, a lot of those got started back in the pre-generics 1.1 era, and the rest are designed to have a similar interface.
TPP and any similar agreements should be totally opposed until they'll be negotiated in public.
Don't use colemak or dvorak on your phone - they don't work well with swype etc due to autocorrect because the most common characters are all on the homerow. But it's not the same thing on a keyboard you type on all day.

Challenges in Contracting Agile Software Projects
Consultants are just high-falutin contractors. Contractors subcontract. Since consultants are easier to identify than other qualified leads, subcontracting is a good way to start. It will also help you see the business from Texas inside.

Good luck.
Same reason why nobody has built a better Google.

PHP is not terrible, Wordpress is not terrible. It's just you, trying to be "different".
I've been talking about this with my friends. I think VR creates a really cool opportunity for interactive events.

My favorite two examples to think of are Star Wars dogfights and fantasy exploration.

I like to think about climbing into a scale TIE Fighter or X-Wing and pulling down the helmet and bam dog fighting.

Or walking into a room that includes some jungle-y/forest-y smells and humidity with the helmet. Being able to explore the scenery and maybe even touch mocked plants/animals. Would create an insane level of realism.

Probably out of scope but cool to think about.

Gnuplot, a perfect tool for datascience?
I'm a graduate student beginning Torch7 and Lua for training a convolutional neural network on a large number of images. During this process, I have to monitor some learning curves. Thereby I searched on google some libs able to plot easily many things (for instance covariance matrix). The only tool I found in torch was https://github.com/torch/gnuplot

Obviously gnuplot is crossplatform able to generate professional diagrams (even to latex). Otherwise, I have a pythonic background and I was using matplotlib instead of some gnuplot wrappers such as http://gnuplot-py.sourceforge.net/

Do you think that using gnuplot as a main lib to plot things is a good idea ?

System Shock 2 did not use the same engine - they licensed Looking Glass Studios' engine used in Thief: The Dark Project. There's a great post mortem for this game here: http://www.gamasutra.com/view/feature/131813/postmortem_irra...
It's not really code - more of a pseudocode, because it leaves the details of the implementation to the reader.

Might be what you were getting at with "doesn't compile or run".

> (Apparently determining if knots are trivial is NP. This doesn’t bode well for neural networks.)

Yes it doesn't, but what do I know (not much). Another annoying property of NN is knowing when they are fully baked.

Edit: Yet they have clearly grown in popularity over the past year. Does that imply anything about the "determining if knots are trivial is NP" criticism? Or does it just mean they are popular for other reasons such as their appeal to people who love black boxes?

Yes, this seems like a bunch of work to keep up and running and I agree that most of the meat of their solution is actually in Google's or Amazon's systems running the GeoDNS/push stuff. Hopefully IPv6 will fix it all ™.

However, until then, GCM [1] seems like a really good workaround. And I believe it is actually free of charge and available for both iOS and Android.

Site Reliability Engineer/Unix Sys Admin Opening at Yuzu in Mountain View
It's a frustrating article to read.
One actor in this ugly story has demonstrably been repeatedly deceitful. We all know which one I'm talking about, even the leftist who can invent apologies for pretty much anything (I admire that "quality" in a way) do.
Warren was not a senator while the ACA was being drafted.
No personal experience, but I can't imagine thinking less of someone for taking work with a candidate, even if I didn't personally like the candidate – it'd at least make you stand out a little more. Plus, if there were a hiring manager who would hold it against you that you worked for Hillary Clinton or Mitt Romney or John McCain or whomever, that's probably a manager who's unbearable in other ways too.

One potential (and, again, totally made-up) caveat: Working for a well-known politician like Hillary Clinton is probably very different from working with a joke candidate or the "Rent is too damn high" guy.

Perhaps, but there is no way that the TPP is going to produce at 10% increase in GDP per capita. I'm generally supportive of free trade agreements, but in the case of the TPP, all the low-hanging economic fruit has already been picked. There are no significant remaining trade barriers that can be removed to generate quick growth.
