Grant Galitz, why do you keep submitting this on a new repository after Nintendo takes your old repository down (see https://github.com/github/dmca/blob/master/2015-07-06-ninten...)? This is the 4th time you've submitted this to Hacker News, each time with brand new Hacker News and GitHub accounts. (The OP created his latest Hacker News account 4 hours ago at the time of this comment)

It's illegal, so no matter how many times you keep re-uploading it to GitHub it will eventually be taken down again and again. The more you defy Nintendo's DMCA takedown requests, the more likely Nintendo will notice and possibly try to track you down and sue you in person.

I understand that you want to show off your legal work (https://github.com/taisel/IodineGBA), but the only way to show it off is to require users to provide their own ROMs.

More proof that this is the same poster: https://github.com/playnintendo/gba/commit/e429bacd4d5fef715...

He forgot to change "jsemu" to "playnintendo" before re-uploading his repository to GitHub.
So, "Welcome to the Internet, where the most bigoted asshole has as much of a right to say stupid crap as you"?

It is usual practice not to give a reason. If you give a reason, you are creating 'exposure' which could lead to a lawsuit, or worse, a class action lawsuit. Most big companies have this policy in place.

So no, it was not some sort of ploy to get info on your chrome extension. If they wanted to do that, they could have just unzipped it and read through your source code. It's trivial.

Lastly, kudos to Amazon for paying attention. Sounds like they investigated the vendors and banned them for review pumping.

>For my using OP in my post, well, here on Hacker News (HN), that is a standard abbreviation

And for AWS, IAM is a standard abbreviation. That's my point.

>Sorry, clearly that's just not good enough since the first use of the acronym did not have the link.

I've already acknowledged that, but one minor error - putting the hyperlink on the second use of a term that you could locate in 5 seconds in Google is hardly going to make the whole thing unintelligible is it?

>Did I say that my concern was good technical writing?

You did. And you've backed it up with pretty poor non-technical writing and a single complaint about the lack of hyperlink on the first occurrence of a single acronym that 99% of those reading an AWS technical blog would already know.
> the product that I used as an illustration on the chrome extension store got banned. Not only that, but multiple products from the same seller and other sellers in that product category engaging in review deception schemes also got banned or more in their lingo "Discontinued"

But isn't that a good thing? I mean, would you really be opposed to Amazon using your exception to detect fraud?

* I resented that she fired Victoria, because I liked Victoria and what she brought to reddit. I didn't speculate on why she was fired at all. But let me speculate a little now - it wasn't for performance reasons judging by what every single person who has worked with Victoria says.

* I relayed what the employee in question said about it on reddit. If its a question of trusting what he says or what Pao says, I'll err on the side of the former, because of the duplicity that Pao has exhibited in recent months.

I hope that clears it up.

As a general rule though, soundbites often do simplify things that are incredibly complex - the economy is broken, so clearly the solution to literally everything is to Reduce Taxes/Tax The Rich More/Your Nonsense Here.

Those generally have a grain of truth, but there is no simple one-line solution here, it's invariably quite complex. The field of economics is an entire field rather than a one-paragraph summary, after all.

Growing up in Australia, and being left-handed, I thought changing gears with my left hand was completely natural. Now, after several years living and driving in continental Europe, I still find it slightly uncomfortable changing gears with my right hand, especially if in a hurry to do so.

However, the oddest thing is that when returning to Australia I now find something like 90% of cars (excluding 4WDs) are automatic, so no changing of gears. While in Europe, the majority of cars are still manual.

I do often turn on the windscreen wipers, when I mean to use the indicator, regardless of which country I'm in.

No.

Classically, LEM and double negation are equivalent.

Intuitionistically the situation is more complicated, see the discussion in this thread by IngoBlechschmid: We can prove that LEM implies double negation, but not the other way around. Intuitionistically, we can only prove that ⊢¬¬A⊃A, then ⊢A∨¬A, but not ⊢(¬¬A⊃A)⊃(A∨¬A).

For these and related reasons, double negation is not considered constructivistically valid.

I'm calling it pedantic, because as far as I can see nobody cares outside of people doing movie VFX and the like, where it is actually really really important that you get it right. Your GUI for example doesn't care - elements are blended assuming a linear colourspace, which means that all font rendering is just slightly off. Even Apple don't care to make their blur effects correct - see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LKnqECcg6Gw . Even photoshop doesn't do it correctly by default. Almost everybody is perfectly happy treating the values as linear colour intensity.

The bottom line is that sRGB is hideously hard to work in. You really want to only use it for storage and only if you really must. It's an optimisation to allow you better range on the low end, at the expense of the high intensity end, to match human colour vision. However, that means using 48bit RGB and that's not a price everyone wants to pay. People who do professional graphics work simply use 32bit floats per colour channel - 128bit RGBA, or even 192bit RGBRaGaBa (separate alpha for each channel) and have workstations with 32 or 64GB of RAM. However, your normal everyday GUI application needs to run on a phone with about 1GB of RAM. Or going back farther, it has to run on an Intel 486 with 16MB of RAM. That kind of explains where the culture of "just treat it as linear, it's not that wrong" came from :) .

I agree. I see it's been flagged dead at least thrice:

There may be more.

The problem is that while this is an important issue that deserves, indeed, demands, careful and intelligent discussion, I've seen that of late, HN is not the place to get such discussion. I expect the thread to degenerate rapidly, and so I suspect that's why it's getting flagged. Not because it isn't important, but because it will bring out the worst in people, and become a focus for incivility at best.

Adultery is a reason for divorve. The "bad times" refers to calamities
beyond the partner's control like illness, accidents. The marriage
contract is only valid as long as both parties stick to it. Adultery
is a voluntary choice and automatically invalidates the (conventinal) marriage
contract.

Nobody says that house etc should automatically go to the husband. It
should go to those who put the work in to build/buy the
property. There are cases, alas rare as of 2015, where this is the
wife. In this case, the house should go to the wife. However, as you
know well, in the vast majority of cases, this is the husband. Staying
at home is not really work. So de facto the contemporary practise of
US divorce courts massively violates husbands' rights. As simple fix
would be to institute (1) no fault = no alimony, and (2) shared 50/50
custody as norm. Anything else is sexism and cannot legitimately be
defended.
In the United States, a major objective of prisons is to provide profit for prison corporation, provide jobs/employment for prison guards, and, in California in particular, to protect the extraordinarily powerful prison guard union (that's heavily involved in politics). A secondary benefit (more common in the south), is to provide low cost prison-labor. A lot of the laws are written to drive up incarceration, and protect those stakeholders.
I was working onsite at the late, unlamented SEMC on some mobile phone software, and I was talking to someone about my PEBL. Lovely hardware, I said. Terrible software, I said. Painful-to-use UI where nothing is findable, it's slow, functionality is poor and it looks ugly, I said. Compare it with the Nokia 6310i, I said. I may have ranted a little.

Yes, he said. He had headed the team who wrote the software for the RAZR/PEBL line.

He cut me off after I started apologising, saying that he agreed with everything I had said. Motorola had subcontracted out development to the company he'd worked for, and had provided a detail specification as to exactly what they wanted. What they wanted was simply bad: every UI design misfeature was deliberately designed in. The team would raise bugs along the lines of 'navigating menus takes ages. There needs to be a way to jump directly to a menu item --- you know, like Nokia has' or 'even after weeks of using the product our testing team still get lost inside the settings menu', and they'd always be closed as Works As Intended. Nobody cared.

But the hardware was beautiful. Robust, excellent battery life, felt good in the hand, well made, lots of nice attention to detail --- the PEBL's magnetic latch was a masterpiece. If only they'd put the same care into the software stack.

A slightly more charitable explanation is that it's very difficult to grasp the scope of a data breach initially. This is similar to most disasters, in that it takes time for a full awareness of what's transpired to sink in -- initial stages are almost always a period of increasing damage estimates as prevoiusly cut-off or not-heard-from locations file reports. I've written on how it took hours for Japan to realize the extent of damage in Hiroshima, and a full day to realize just what had happened. And that only because the United States told them.

https://www.reddit.com/r/dredmorbius/comments/1wf9yc/on_disa...

And that was an event which left highly tangible physical evidence.

For data loss, you're dealing with little by way of physical evidence, almost always an unknown attacker, and a case of forensic log analysis, trying to sort legitimate traffic from non. If you _can_ determine that specific accounts or IPs are known compromised or hostile, you may be able to make some guess as to what data were accessed, but that depends entirely on the level of logging and other design elements of your systems.

The evolving rule of thumb is that any data breach will be larger than first reported. But it's not appropriate to assume this is on account of intentional deception.

What citizenship/right to work in various countries do you have? Is your degree in computer science or software engineering? I think the US will require that you have a relevant degree in the field, or years of experience - I don't know if other countries have similar requirements.

I got a job with Microsoft in the US from Australia as an undergrad, and I know that they interviewed applicants from across Asia. Salaries are higher in the US than either Australia or the UK, from what I've seen, and there are many more jobs available in the US than in Australia.
You're assuming there are no legacy back-end systems that those Web systems interact with.

Some programmers may not immediately see the benefits of having such a UI builder and would never touch the generated code with a ten foot pole.

However I don't think that it's about the code it generates or boilerplate it proposedly saves you from writing. It's way more about the instant feedback and feel you get when dragging UI elements into the canvas, re-arranging them, finding creative ways to (re)structure your app BEFORE you even start coding. This playground will strengthen the concept of the UI in your head, and believe it or not, that greatly enhances your productivity when you do start to code (from scratch or with the generated code).

You could combine it with annual payments. Free copyright for the first 20 years, then annual payments until death of author (person or other legal entity). Disney will still like it, because it will be less money than lobbying, but it will allow older now-unprofitable works to enter the public domain.

Or outright require that the corporation in question shows continuing profit from the work. If they're not profiting, then they're not using it, or are outright misusing it, so everyone else should be allowed a go at it.

Or allow for this transition of authorship to only happen when the corporation itself is inextricably tied with the work in question and would be severely damaged by its passing in the public domain (yes, this is in effect "do you have enough lawyer money" - kind of the same principle as above). Maybe require that the corporation was funded no more than delta(Disney creates Mickey Mouse, Disney creates the Disney corporation) + 1 years after the work in question. This will prevent for example book publishers getting perpetual rights to a book.

However it is formulated, I do think we can afford to cede certain corporate icons to their respective corporations in exchange of saner laws for the common cases.
Relevant... the OP's comment regarding his post on HN: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9872513

Also, Reddit was funded by YC so ideally this discussion should have a place on HN.
I think in a world where physical things influence a system so pervasively so as to be irrevocable, leaving their causal footprint everywhere, absence of evidence predicts absence of evidence. It's not proof, but evidence, which is something else. A better word might be information. I argue that absence of evidence is information that should influence your bet on the course of future information.

Say I'm looking for alien civilization. I write a magical program to search one planet at a time, and stop when it finds an alien civilization. I argue that with every planet that fails the test, we should consider that as information toward the case that this program will never stop. I think these claims are testable if crafted into narrower versions.

A reframed version of the maxim would be: Absence of evidence is not information for evidence of absence. Another reiteration could be "absence of evidence does not provide predictive utility toward any claims on the evidence of absence". I claim the opposite.

I think the author of your link would say that in my rephrasing of things, the whole class of my examples are negative evidence, because he counts any information as negative or positive evidence, and in consistency he demands perfect ignorance. No peeking in the cat box. Unfortunately, me scanning for planets counts as peeking, or getting information, into portions of a very large cat box.

That's quite an interesting comment on the tone of the argument you're responding to(http://www.paulgraham.com/disagree.html), but doesn't actually refute it.

People make mistakes, people are fallible, the /r/talesfromtechsupport subreddit goes to show that quite well. Despite this, you obviously don't want these people to die, and if not having a gun reduces the chance of a gun being turned on them, they may well be better without it.

Having a gun in the scenario inherently raises the stakes to lethal, after all.
Small point: the 'better educated' comment is at base an appeal-to-authority argument. In other words, irrelevant. Is there an argument or isn't there? And anyway, how is 'better educated' defined? Does the standard 'university degrees ladder' always trump other considerations? Often enough, it probably does not.
It has the concept of boilerplate projects that you can start from. Right now, its bootstrap or material or a blank canvas..

Democrats have controlled the executive branch for the past 7 years.

The Democrats had a filibuster-proof majority in the Senate -- for four months. From September 24, 2009, to February 4, 2010.

Prior to then, the Deomocrats nominally had 60 seats in the Senate, but:

Edward Kennedy was ill from the night of Obama's inaguration.

Senator Al Franken's election was disputed for months.

Arlen Specter switched from Republican to Democrat, in order to hold his seat, but didn't support the Democrats for filibusters.

Senator Byrd was in hospital for much of 2009.

Absent a filibuster-proof majority, the GOP could and did effectively block any legislative action, at will, to the point of shutting down the Federal government of the United States for two and a half weeks.
