And nobody's making you read my comments either. So why is your meta-criticism valid but mine somehow not?

Look, I'm not trying to be a killjoy here. But there were no fewer than twenty versions of this on Github already. I know it, and I did have to read it, because I set this shit up and a good portion of my time was wasted after reading "guide" after "guide" from people who really shouldn't be allowed anywhere near a computer, let alone a publishing platform.

Once you took more than a half step away from the real caffe docs (which are totally fine, incidentally) every install guide was idiotic and broken. Every Python script was total bullshit. Publishing things that are hardcoded to your username in the home directory? Really? 29 public commits of an 80 line script and you still haven't sorted that out?

I submitted pull requests for the path bugs, the jpeg save at 75% idiocy, people spelling "avconf" instead of "avconv." But no0bs were copying the stuff around (not forking) faster than I could keep up. And nobody was accepting patches anyway. They just dumped the shit on Github and abandoned it.

Dump enough crap on a site and it disappears -- whether its Geocites or Google Code. Don't treat these amazing resources like your personal scrapbook. Show a little self respect and respect the time of others, too. That's the essence of being a professional.
Seems like they(3rd party) haven't found a way to stop piracy and started trying so hard to add malicious code, which may lead to blocking out these websites by all the major browser vendors and reduce piracy to some extent.

> Free speech is meant to protect the most disgusting, heinous, pointless, hateful, ignorant, foolish speech.

No it's not. It's meant to protect speech which the politically powerful find objectionable. It's not about protecting abuse, but protecting ideas. Rebellious and revolutionary ideas, for example.

This is all a canard anyway - Reddit is not the (US) government. They get to set the rules for communication in their playground. If you don't let them do that, then you are infringing on their freedom of expression. Reddit can only say 'no' on their own systems; they don't stop you spreading whatever disgusting, heinous, pointless, hateful, ignorant, or foolish speech in other forums.

If you want free speech the way you describe it, then you need to go to an unmoderated forum. Incidentally, on the front page of HN at the moment is a request for help in removing child porn from a web service, because the owner doesn't have enough resources to moderate it. If you ever wanted a clear example of where free speech is not meant to protect disgusting material, that's got to be it
This sounds very conspiracy-theory-ish to me. The more likely explanation is that some ad network allowed malware ads to go through which triggered the block.
> I don't understand why we should use JSON to configure a server, when a much more powerful language exists: Javascript.

Because it's more powerful. More powerful, in many cases, is a worse thing. Executable imperative code isn't as flexible as a data file because all you can really do with it is execute it and take the output, rather than process it as you see fit.

See:

Why would you think that? I explicitly said "Apart from the OS (which isn't where the problem lies), there's no open source in it."

It's a 3rd party commercial platform for developing your own applications on. To rewrite individual bits that aren't working efficiently would be a nightmare.

As for imagining having full control over the behaviour of my code - I had that quarter of a century ago or more when I started coding, and spent weeks or months building windowing systems and low-level networking code in assembler that I could achieve in 30 seconds with any off the shelf language these days.

Yes, my code was extremely efficient (it had to be, trying to do graphical comms software on 8086 machines didn't give you much of an option to do otherwise), but the use of my time wasn't.

The third party product that we're using is the result of many years of a large team of dedicated developers. Rewriting that from scratch in order to make sure we've got full knowledge of what's going on is an utter ludicrous idea.

iPod Touch Hardware Upgrades/Hacks
I've done a lot of research and concluded I want an iPod touch for my phone instead of an iPhone. I'm looking at the hardware and it it's all old, repurposed iPhone stuff. Is there any way to take iPad components and throw them in an iPod, just because? Or even order some compatible chips off a chip manufacturer website? Really difficult to find any info out there... Thanks
I'm as cynical as the next person but this appears to over ads that have a malware payload when clicked (maybe when even not clicked, is this possible??) -- not copyright infringement.

Anyways this site: https://torrentfreak.com/chrome-blocks-major-torrent-sites-o... says that the issue is already resolved so we don't need to run around screaming that the sky is falling and pointing fingers :) See the very end of the post.

Update: Some people report that Firefox also started blocking access to several torrent sites.

Update: ExtraTorrent says it successfully resolved the issue with Google through webmaster tools. RARBG is also unblocked.

Update: Google didn’t comment on this specific situation and referred us to a recent blog post.

Haswell introduced C7-C10, as described in a slide here: http://www.techpowerup.com/175374/haswell-ult-processors-cou...
You might want to re-read the HN guidelines.
nil dereference is only really critical if it can result in security issues like in C and C++. After that there are a lot of class of errors that are possible even in stronger types systems like in Haskell, nil dereference is only one of them.

The question ultimately is what is the shortest path to developing a functioning and correct program ? Compilers can be very smart and help you catch a lot of errors but they can also introduce friction if they become too slow. Everyone has different opinions about the "best" because we have different ways of getting to the end-result. Programming is a discovery process and some people prefer to think a lot upfront, some like to experiment and probably a different mix of both for every one of us.

All this to say that nil in Go is not an absolute mistake. It's just a trade-off like everything else. Since I took Haskell as an example, it's also much much slower to compile.
I wonder how the developers feel that invested in that platform?
Right, but people say things like 'all the speakers at this conference are white men - that's not diverse enough'.

If you are determining diversity by sex and skin color, I'm saying that you are making judgements about people's background, tastes, culture, etc that are racist and sexist.
You melted my brain. What does “quantify over all formulas” mean?

From the way you state it, that's an interesting perspective. But it seems to be from a perspective of totality which I'm wary of. Not saying you're wrong, going to check out those links. Andrej Bauer was very kind to answer an out-of-the-blue email query of mine once :)

Seriously appreciative of your response, a thousand thanks!

EDIT: Ok, I've read your paper/slides. Very interesting. Don't you show that for specific constructions you can make LEM work for classical proofs with continuation monads? How does that show that _in general_ in constructive mathematics that the implication (~p ∨ p) ⇒ (¬¬p ⇔ p) holds but not its inverse? Also, your bit about rewinding time makes complete sense imho because classical logic is atemporal and continuation monads inject the idea of flowing time into those proofs in a controlled manner.

EDIT 2: I _highly_ reccommend Dennis E. Hesseling's Gnomes in the Fog: The Reception of Brouwer's Intuitionism in the 1920s which I think gives a different slant on what Brouwer actually claimed than what you might imagine if you go with Andrej Bauer's interpretation. I can shoot you a copy if you can't lay your hands on it online :)
I'd love to do something in this sector. There are so many broken processes and barely functional tools that you don't even have to look for opportunities: They're literally everywhere.

I have quite a few product ideas - mainly about EHR systems and data fragmentation / data exchange. I've shared those ideas with friends in the healthcare industry (both physicians and people working for insurance companies). While they all agreed that this particular area is in desperate need of fixing and the product I suggested would help with alleviating some of the pain they also said that for the principal stakeholders there's little to no motivation to improve or modernize processes.

The industry is driven by very complex, intertwined, often political incentives and ulterior motives. The patients' actual well-being seems to be quite low on the priority list.

Physicians also often seem to be quite averse towards technology and often don't trust people who aren't doctors themselves (so getting a doctor onboard your healthcare startup team might be a good idea if you haven't done so already ...). I know specialists who own ridiculously expensive CAT scanners, MRI scanners and whatnot yet still insist on sending the images created by these expensive machines via mail (the traditional one, not the electronic variety - with expectable results: Data occasionally gets lost, data is fragmented across various providers, scans have to be done again because the image from 3 months ago can't be found anymore ...).

Sales is another problem. If you ever thought enterprise sales processes were long and complex those are eclipsed by enterprise sales processes in the healthcare industry. If you want to market a new product you have to navigate a Byzantine labyrinth of certification processes apparently carefully put in place by lobbying incumbents in order to keep upstarts out of the market. When marketing a new healthcare product targeted at healthcare providers you're looking at years - not months - of painstaking and costly lobbying. I'm not sure how any startup could afford this.

I don't want to sound negative. I'd love to see more improvements in this space but I'm afraid that - other than consumer products such as quantified self apps - the situation looks pretty bleak. If you have any suggestions as to how to address these issues and change the industry for the better, please drop me a note.

The fact that developers aren't invested in the platform is a big part of why it's living on borrowed time. They can't even get Microsoft developers invested in it; they'd rather develop for iOS first and then Android.
> I won't even learn CoffeeScript and that's everywhere.

Could you please explain why is that? I'm honestly asking - my hobby of learning languages (https://klibert.pl/articles/langs.html) makes me completely unable to understand opinions such as yours here.

Opa once implemented an ML-like language, which I liked better than the current JS-like thing. They moved to JS because of two reasons, IIRC: to get a runtime for free (Node) and to be "more familiar to more developers".

Besides syntax, Opa offers quite a lot of benefits on a language level. Static typing with inference and statically typed HTML - this means that code that isn't safe in terms of HTML injections does not compile at all! Executing the same code on both backend and frontend, built-in database layer and a whole lot of helpers and tools for creating SPAs.

At first I thought Opa is something like Seaside in Smalltalk or Nagare in Python, but it is unique in that it lets you write client-side code without much hassle, which is rather hard in other frameworks.
How about basic income and abolishing any minimum wage? (And other barriers to low income employment.)
Oh, but you need to think a bit further about incentives. Ideally, you don't want people to lose the small but regular employment the moment they pick up a (possibly unsteady!) job.

> It is funny. Because it's the people who want silence others' free speech who repeat the "freedom of speech doesn't mean freedom from consequences" meme as justification for their horrible actions.

Ugh. "horrible actions" as a description for calling people out who threaten, belittle, insult and harass other people and claim that is "protected speech".

By the way, even in a context, where the term "freedom of speech" is really adequate (so, when talking laws and government actions, for example), freedom stops where you infringe the rights of others. That's the whole point of states: To balance the natural freedoms of one person with the rights of other people, thus providing stability. Which is why you can't steal, for example. That's a freedom that had to be balanced against the rights of other people.

5.20ms per image to render a Mandelbrot set at 1440x800 using AVX. My mind boggles when I think back to the time (a little over 20 years ago) when I typed in a Mandelbrot program from a magazine on my Commodore 128, ran it, went to school, to return 8 hours later to just see it complete the last few pixels of a monochrome Mandelbrot at a glorious 320x200 resolution ;-)
Sorry, would you happen to have any sources on the claim that the CPU is split between only 2 users?

I had always assumed that their utilization rates would be much higher than 2 users per physical CPU, even for higher end instances like this one.

The Nvidia GRID GPU almost definitely is shared as well, since that's the entire purpose of the GRID SKU:

http://www.nvidia.ca/object/grid-technology.html

According to this, the K520 supports up to 16 concurrent users while sporting 2x GK104 based GPUs of power. When fully utilized I figured each user won't be getting much more power than a single midrange GPU, and I can't imagine why Amazon would choose to not keep them fully utilized either. If you have any sources otherwise, I'd love to see them as well.
I made 5 apps early on and 6 months into it I realized there was no money in it. The dev tools and environment is probably the best in mobile development. It's unfortunate they can't break through.

I'm waiting for this handset to be paid off and grabbing a cheap android (Moto G or something)

Edit: Actually sod it I'm going to buy a dumbphone. I just did a 30 second reflection on my mobile device experience over the last decade and it hasn't even touched circa 1998 desktop software yet. I've had every platform and its just a cash sink and privacy nightmare.

Edit 2: Rereading the article actually hs killed the handset for me. I know with stuff like this on the table in the near future my handset is going to be worth nothing so I just did a BIN on the last dumbphone I had on ebay (Nokia 3510i) and will shift this quickly before it depreciates to nothing.

Probably not in terms of pure compute power, my wording is definitely a bit off there.

However, the overall gaming experience you get with the local streaming setup will probably be similar to, if not superior to, the remote streaming setup regardless of absolute hardware power, because i3 + GTX 750 TI can definitely handle most games at 60fps in 720p (and a lot of them at 1080p in my experience). So the comparison ends up between streaming 720p with 50ms latency due to bandwidth constraints over WAN vs streaming 720p (and some 1080p) with <5ms latency within a LAN.
I can say the same about the #8 I suffer from.

I have the same thing. I'm almost certain the sound is associated with shoulder/jaw tension on my left side. I can raise the sound frequency by jutting my jaw forward.

Quite often the ringing is worse after a day of sitting at work and typically reaches a veritable crescendo by Friday afternoon.

Likewise the onset of my tinnitus correlates with a period of stress and long hours at work sitting down.
> It is depraved and cynical to suggest that the purpose of a college should be job-training. This is a wholly american idea, and a shitty one at that.

Not wholly American. I have a coworker in Brussels who was surprised to find out that most of the programmers in the states only have BS degrees. In Belgium, he tells me, it's hard to find a programming job with less than six years of university on your résumé.

> If one wants to study art history, then one should study art history.

I agree, but the problem is the mixed messages. The messages being told to prospective students (and they were told to me) are (1) "Study whatever you are passionate about; the purpose of an education is to make you a well-rounded human being" and (2) "After 4 or 5 years of this, you'll be able to get whatever job you like". It's perfectly acceptable to tell someone #1 but with the caveat that there aren't a lot of jobs in art history. It's also reasonable to tell someone #2 with the understanding that they need to study, e.g., STEM.

> College shouldn't cost 6 figures in the first place.

Wholly agree.
They couldn't put an HD camera on this thing.

Actually, I'm sure they could have, but a larger camera would have required a larger telescope in front, not to mention the bandwidth issue. Elsewhere in this discussion it's mentioned that the flyby data will be stored in two mirrored 8 GB units and slowly streamed back home through November 2016 (we'll get some lossily compressed images earlier, although nothing until the fly-by is finished and the main radio antenna again points at earth).

So an 8.2 inch mirror, largest ever sent to the outer solar system, with a 1024x1024 bits CCD, which isn't bad at all, weighing in at 19.4 pounds and an average power of 5.8 watts (http://pluto.jhuapl.edu/Mission/Spacecraft/Payload.php)
The common thing I see in your comments is that you have seriously inflated, unreasonable expectations. No one promised HD streams from Mars. You can't have that, for the reasons outlined by other commenters. The problem isn't with NASA, it's with your expectations. We're not in XXIV century yet.
> make things so much more complicated

Simple pre-processing and code-to-code transformation is typical in many different languages and environments. Pretty much every time you start a Java or C++ project within some IDE you're essentially generating a lot of code automatically.

And in the case of various JS preprocessors/transpilers it's not even that complicated. It's mostly trivial transformations, which in more capable languages would be expressed as macros, f-exprs or something like that. Maybe try writing your transpiler sometime? It'll take a weekend, and you'll see how easy and simple it is.

> Everything is too abstracted.

That's only because of your background. ASP.NET or GWT guys would not agree, I imagine.

> it would sacrifice a lot of control and would become a huge lock-in liability.

Control over what exactly? You still have an external database you need to manage. You handle backups, schema migrations and so on. I'd say Opa's abstraction of data storage is on par with "normal" ORMs (like Django ORM) in terms of flexibility/power ratio.

I don't see a lock-in potential here, as long as data store used by Opa is available to other languages and environments. You can always just load the raw data directly from DB and do anything you want with them. Would be another story if Opa used in-memory, built-in in-process data storage (which is an approach I quite like) but it doesn't.
