I have done some iOS programming in ObjC and I'm looking at Swift 2.0 right now. The language is just too big for you to start with and the tooling is still bug-prone. I think you'll get more out of one month with React-Native. Hopefully you'll have created something at the end of it. That's really important. And in a month they'll release another version of XCode 7 and the iOS 9 SDK that's less buggy. A month goes by so quickly.
Man...I'm really, really sick of this lame, lame, lame defense of lousy behavior. Freedom of speech doesn't mean that anybody other than the government has to have anything to do with you and doesn't apply to anybody here in their personal judgments of somebody who's choosing to act shitty.

And maybe it's just me, but it strikes me that, when the best defense or excuse that you can trot out is that hey, it's actually going to get you arrested to do it, the moral argument is not exactly strong.
I use DNSimple and they have a feature that lets you sync to another provider.

I have not used it but, as I understand it, the feature helps you setup slave servers which respond to Notify messages from DNSimple. That way, if they go down, your slave provider will keep things up.
This is a great presentation tool of YC jobs. I really like how the text search is based on mapview. Would be nice to have the jobs distributed by zip code. SFO and London seem very clustered. Great work.

I do love how everything is operational...

I see the big blurb about DNS at the top. But it still feels like the table is misleading. When they're having a major DNS outage and every site is "operational" it feels misleading.

Although if this was Amazon's AWS console we wouldn't even have the blurb at the top...
Router hardware cannot keep up with any real number of IPv6 addresses. You'll quickly overflow router tables if you try to use even a tiny fraction of that /48 at once.

For example, Cisco Nexus 9000 can deal with 30k IPv6 neighbors. Once you cross that, things start blowing up.

This isn't really a limit for the backbone routers, because they're all dealing with routes, not individual IPs (they know that 2001:DB8::/32 goes to peer A, which only consumes one routing table entry). It's only a provide when you get to the network edge.
>User experience is important.

I agree user experience is important, but experience is so much more than simple aesthetics.

I'm not saying they're totally unimportant, which is why I included the qualifying clause about "undue hardship", but I have no respect for users that will put themselves at a functional disadvantage so that their experience can be "prettier" (aka "more native"). These people have their subculture, called "Apple", and frankly, I want as little to do with it as possible. Prioritizing glitz above function shows serious problems in critical thinking.

If we can make an application look better, cool, we should add that to the list somewhere. I'm not opposed to that. I strongly disagree that this should be anywhere near the primary criterion used to judge an application's value.
'Vice has described its salaries as “competitive with comparable emerging media companies,” but many employees seem to be here for the work and the culture, not the money.

“There’s a sense that you’re lucky to be there,” said one former employee. “What you don’t get paid for in cash is made up in the cool factor, and maybe getting into their parties.”

“It’s like a cult,” said another ex-employee.'

When an employer makes it clear that you're lucky to work for them, and when you're getting paid in cool factor instead of cash, you probably are working for a corporate cult.
It didn't destroy the vehicle so the importance of it was downplayed. It was thought, even up to the time of the Columbia disaster, that the reinforced carbon-carbon composites on the wing leading edges were too strong to take damage from a foam/ice strike. And there were contingencies in place for foam damage, though the system was overall resilient enough to take a fair bit of damage without causing a loss of the vehicle during re-entry. So to some extent they thought they had their bases covered, though in reality that was just a fantasy. The reality was that it was extremely difficult to assess any damage to the thermal protective system while on orbit, there weren't actually any feasible options for repairs of major damage, there weren't proper contingencies for a rescue operation except when the orbiter visited the station (and then only just barely), and the wing leading edge material turned out to be far more brittle than had been modeled.

The whole history of the Shuttle system is a history of dodging disaster left and right and then hitting it after leaning too heavily on luck for too long. The very first flight of the Shuttle involved an "anomaly" during launch which the crew said would have resulted in them attempting to ditch if they had known about it during liftoff. On the 9th shuttle flight there was a leak and fire of two out of three of the APUs right at touchdown. Had that happened much earlier during entry it could have easily resulted in loss of the crew and vehicle. Not to mention the many near-misses with the problem that ultimately doomed Challenger.
I hope I'm not being nitpicky, but Rails is a back-end framework, and (most likely) some of the Javascript frameworks you're talking about are also back-end frameworks.

I agree that a lot of extreme pro-gun folks are opposed to any and all sorts of compromise.

Can you specify any compromise offered to us by the gun grabbers in, say, the last 50 years, that wasn't of the form "we'll only take half of your arm off"?

Maybe the Firearms Owners Protection Act of '86, which had a poison pill ending sales of new machine guns to civilians? Nowadays lots of gun owners who weren't watching the BATF exterminate gun culture in the '70s and early-mid '80s say we shouldn't have accepted that deal for the precedent it established, which was furthered in "assault weapons" bans (prior to that there were no firearms technically banned from civilian ownership, even if NFA arms like machine guns had onerous acquisition regimes ... which the BATF is even now trying to make more onerous/impossible).

Stepping back a bit, after, oh, 81 years of bad faith (going back to the NFA of '34 which attempted a de facto ban on handgun transfers for all but the rich), might we be somewhat justified in not being willing to give up another fraction of an inch? Especially when we have members of our community like my father who remember how things used to be, without problems? (OK, he was 4 years old when it passed, but you get the idea, e.g. when he was in high school in mid-late '40s he and others would store their guns in their school lockers while attending to make hunting before or after more convenient, and "school shooting" were unheard of.)
You could always run your own DNS server. Of course, you'd then lose the other services Cloudflare offer like basic DDoS protection, but that's the trade off you'd have to consider.
Looking at your questions I have a huge suggestion: Unless you know a space really well be careful with investing. Maybe spend some serious time doing research, and place your bets with a small amount of money or even make an imaginary portfolio to track it to see how you do.
yes it is a recent thing however look at the "we apologise" thread and it is the topic of the top voted comment. People care about it.

The cunt/hitler thing all relates to the banning of r/fph and the reasoning behind it. Her statement to the effect that reddit was not a free-speech site but a safe place was the originator of most of the hatred. Reddit always championed itself as a free-speech site and it was the users that came and stayed for that reason that felt betrayed by her personally.
Bottom is a member of every type, so all Haskell programs correspond to proofs of trivial propositions. Or that is my understanding anyway.
And something similar should be true for common imperative languages.
Right - even though polar orbits are pretty useful, so there probably are quite a few satellites with inclinations close to 90 degrees, they spend less than 10/360 = 2.8% of their time within 5 degrees of the north pole. What's surprising is the sudden increase in the density of stuff around 80 degrees north.

One possible explanation is the combination of the iridium 33 collision debris field, which is in orbits with inclinations around 86 degrees, and Fengyun 1C debris, which is around 99 degrees (so, 81 degrees but going the opposite direction). The limit of the distributions of those two clusters might account for the clear 'edge' of the circle around the pole.
I just tried switching the lights in my house on and off and it changed in the right place on the globe, so yes.

Deterrence indeed; the nations keenest right now on developing their own nuclear weapons (DPRK and Iran, I'm looking at you) are doing it because they know damn well it's the only way to be safe from the world's current invasion-happy globe-trotting nation and favoured sidekick (who, to be fair, do seem a lot less keen to invade other countries after the long series of monumental clusterfucks in Iraq and Afghanistan). The question is can they develop them before said warstarters decide to invade anyway?

China remembers what the US was thinking the last time it was yomping about near the Yalu River and certainly won't put up with anyone invading the DPRK, so they're safe at least from that quarter, but if I was Iran, having watched Iraq get invaded and then screwed over for a decade for essentially no reason whatsoever, I'd be really keen to have some kind of deterrence before the US decided to invade.
This is horribly disconcerting. In general the implications are that survivors of severe trauma pass on hormonal alterations to their children, I wonder how many generations this can be observed for.
That's a nice tip.

Can I ask a question while we wait for Cloudflare to fix this... Heroku looks nice. But also quite expensive after you add on dyno, Postgre/Redis, and "addons." What about Heroku do you like/appreciate that justifies the slightly higher costs? Or do you just like that all of the devops-style stuff is handled by them (as opposed to AWS/Azure/Linode, etc where you'd have to do it yourself).

I am genuinely asking, I have no reason to dislike Heroku, and I know it is quite popular. Just trying to understand what the "value add" is over other cloud services (or why they're dissimilar).

Please don't feel obliged to answer, but if you have the time it would be appreciated/interesting.

I have read a small percentage of the comments on this page.

I conclude that some of the "blame" conversation is rooted in guilt.

In the history of this messy topic, some of you have only posted one mean comment. Maybe you even found and posted some content for dox.

Now, you're finally realizing that this shit is real. Hell, you're older now.

And you're panicking. You are refusing to believe that you have been part of a big, nasty problem.

Well, knock it off. Pull yourself together!

Nobody is perfect and none of us truly know what we are doing. Nobody is even going to ask you to apologize.

But we WILL and ARE asking you to stop resisting. Stop defending, stop making excuses, and stop passing the buck.

Limitations are good. See the currently highly-rated top-level comment: "why can't every server get a /48 so I can perpetrate the most ridiculous waste of address space imaginable?"

The idea of 128-bit address space seems to be that people can waste it like crazy and there will still be plenty for centuries to come. But that underestimates people's ingenuity in coming up with nifty things they could do if they wasted even more address space, and with no obvious reason not to they'll do it, until we're back in the same situation. Really, one day people will be wanting a /32 so they can do something nifty, and then it'll become a common thing, and the situation will seem oddly familiar...

10 years ago I played graphically rich instant-response video games on a desktop computer with 512mb ram and 128mb video ram (and fairly powerful cpu and gpu for the time). I knew that in the coming years more memory and processing power would enable ever more detailed visuals. But I didn't know that I would use significantly more system and gpu memory than that, just to read email in a browser tab. Because why not I guess...

They said they would like to have some encoding technique (completely new) which would get transcoded without any data loss. So, my point was that such _new_ encoding techniques will be rejected by YT in the first step itself, before even transcoding.
Discovery at Udvar-Hazy is why I started this project. I saw the serial numbers on the tiles – almost close enough to touch on tiptoe – and remembered reading about some kind of database. I imagined a visualization with a line for every tile over time, and decided to find the records to make the viz.

That was two years ago. I’ve asked a lot of people since then, but after making a web site for the project (on @doingitwrong’s advice), this week is by far the most attention it’s gotten. I’m hoping this is what finally gets word to someone who knows something.
It's frustrating for me, too. Because my side project https://statusgator.io pulls in this status data and sends alerts to subscribers when services go down.

It's both good and bad. It's more proof that at least some life experiences can produce heritable traits - typically called Lamarckism, and long considered a discredited contender as an evolutionary theory. Whether these traits are good or bad depends on the life experiences I suppose.

You are right, I'm mistaking it with the Hamadryas. Geladas are the interesting mountain monkeys that eat dry grasses.

It seems that solitary wolves enjoy protection from feral dogs within the group of monkeys surveying and thus can concentrate in the chase of rodents (and maybe use also placents and any dead monkey corpse?). Wolves probably understand that monkey bite will do a lot of damage and avoid to put himselves in troubles. Geladas eat a very poor diet, live in a cold place and (as pandas) probably need to preserve the energy so spend it chasing a much faster wolf is a bad movement. Common enemies. Not conflict of interests with diet, long lives and social animals that can remember you; thus: Not need to be unpolite. To start a fight is a lose:lose movement for both.

My guess is that their subnets would be periodically marked as spammers in various black lists, so they would need new subnets to continue "email marketing".
Because "email marketing" means "spammers". They were buying new blocks of IP addresses to try to evade blacklists. They are the scum of the internet, dumping their pollution far and wide because nobody is stopping them.

*to be clear, not all email marketers are spammers. But you can be damn sure anyone buying that many IP blocks is. There's literally no legitimate reason for them to need that many IP addresses.

Thanks for the interesting history on set theory. However, if you read [1] or the first chapter of [2] in my reply you'll see that the strides to formalize mathematics started in 1935 so something does not add up.

I did not intend to say Hoare logic being a foundation of mathematics, this was unclear in my post since I just abruptly changed topics. However, i would be delighted to read someone attempting to do just that.

What I intended to say is that the posted paper is basically a formulation of Hoare logic using set theory.

By this I meant both specifying program semantics and proving program properties. As in, the automated construction of Hoare pre/post annotations or for concurrency rely--guarantee annotations. To me, this is bringing languages without depends types closer to similar kinds of correctness guarantees.

Thanks for the clarifications on semantics. You hit the nail on the head.

We did something similar at the Space Apps NYC hackathon this April where we tried to simulate the effects of cascading space debris collisions known as the "Kessler syndrome".

We ran out of time so it doesn't actually cascade but it shows the rather high likelihood of collisions if you fast-forward with the slider on the bottom left of the screen. Pull requests would be very welcome, the data from space-track.org generally is great fun to play around with (as is three.js and satellite.js).

“Your conscience is a nuisance. A conscience is like a child. If you pet it and play with it and let it have everything that it wants, it becomes spoiled and intrudes on all your amusements and most of your griefs. Treat your conscience as you would treat anything else. When it is rebellious, spank it—be severe with it, argue with it, prevent it from coming to play with you at all hours, and you will secure a good conscience; that is to say, a properly trained one. A spoiled one simply destroys all the pleasure in life. I think I have reduced mine to order. At least, I haven’t heard from it for some time. Perhaps I have killed it from over-severity. It’s wrong to kill a child, but, in spite of all I have said, a conscience differs from a child in many ways. Perhaps it’s best when it’s dead.”

I find this a great advice.
Very cool! Really neat that it pops out info about the individual objects too. Great to see that the code has been published too.
