The meme background of e.g. not sure Fry doesn't substantially detract from the value of an episode of Futurama. The video reposts by various radio stations are exactly the same as the behavior in question.

Uhm, restriction enzymes?

for the uninitiated: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Restriction_enzyme

(basically, restriction enzymes are what CRISPR is basically set to replace for complex systems/organisms where restriction enzymes are too weak; although for simple systems restriction enzymes are waaay simpler)
All, excellent questions.
Show HN: Ugly: A Universal Graphics Library
This seems quite cool. For very large clusters, I'd also consider looking into Optaplanner, which exposes a variety of probabilistic metaheuristics for balancing. There's a "cloud balancing" example in the documentation which is fairly close in terms of the use case: https://docs.jboss.org/drools/release/6.0.0.Beta1/optaplanne...
It's really just not about credit at this point, it's about money. Facebook has already made money... you know what the real solution is? To give they money they made out of ads to its original creator. I don't understand why this isn't happening?
The author jumps to an unfounded conclusion which is pretty irritating and probably will make everybody who could help him not want to help him.

That said I've never seen a DSN like the one in the screenshot. It certainly is not generated by the gmail spam checking system, because gmail does not bounce spam. Gmail either rejects spam at SMTP DATA time, or delivers it to spam folders.
So if it were possible to read a single neuron in the brain, and optimize input through its' signal would it be similarly possible to extract what triggers that neuron from such a setup?
> Maybe the lack of women in computer science

I find this ironic coming from an Asian women. Maybe she means a lack of white women in computer science. I recall my University lectures were dominated by Asian students, and of those, the gender balance was pretty even. Among non-Asian students, the vast majority were white men.
My doc said it could take a week or two initally to have a real effect, ive just passed the 2 week mode, and im combining this with sleeping naked(sorry tmi i know, but hey, it helps haha), and lowering my evening caffeine ammount (i useto only have one no later than 7pm, now i make that one weak).
I'm not sure visibility is all that's required. You have to be able to accurately predict the entire future timeline and somehow prove that your prediction is accurate.
Comparing light to grow plant, vs fuel to fly the fruits of that plant?

LED lighting use more, even without doing the calculations I feel quite confidant in saying that it uses much more.
Well, it'd be pretty demoralizing to see someone profiting* off of a bastardized copy of work I did in my free time, going out of their way to remove anything crediting me. As others have pointed out, Facebook itself stands to make actual money, too, and has incentive to turn a blind eye. I can certainly sympathize with the frustration, so why not use the law to fight back?

* Even if the profits are intangible, as in Facebook likes.
Devaluation actual has real, not psychological impacts in debt repayment and import/export.

Whether printing more money would lead to a liquidity trap is above my pay grade, but empirically (the past 5 years, and every single austerity program in history), imposing austerity has been to shown, to not work, and it's a precondition if they want to keep using Euros. Based on current/future loan terms, Greece will never be able to grow their GDP to meet their repayment schedule.
Ohh the BEM bummer. All those __ and -- makes my eye hurt. Write decent line of code in HTML file with BEM classes and it looks worse than inline styles (visually).
For the rest of library, I'm still trying and testing, but I don't think I'll be moving any of my main projects to this library because of BEM.
> Most monitors are 16:9 because horizontal space is more important than vertical.

Most monitors are 16:9 because that aspect ratio fits certain popular entertainment media content that people consume, and a significant usage of general purpose computers is consuming that content (and, also, a significant use outside of general purpose computers of displays is for consuming that content, which effects the economics of producing panels.)

That doesn't necessarily reflect the relative value of horizontal vs. vertical space in other applications.
The problem today is that capitalism favors the individual (or legal entity) more than it favors society. Freedom and quality of life are generally ignored if they don't impact the bottom line. It's just assumed that the free market will figure it out and everyone will benefit in the long run.

So someone like Van Gogh is a perfect example of where it all breaks down. He (admirably) wasn't very interested in wealth or material things, he just wanted to be able to make a living doing what he was passionate about, and generally failed. There are millions of people throughout history who perfected their craft but since it wasn't recognized or rewarded, their potential contributions to society went largely unrecognized and unutilitized.

Today underemployment, tragedies of the commons and uncounted externalities are so rampant in our economy that (to me at least) it seems that they actually underpin it. So many problems like hunger, reliance on fossil fuels, lack of access to technology, just on and on, are relatively simple to fix and would only require a handful of dedicated people to make it happen. But say someone has an idea for a new generator that runs on waste heat, he or she can't get funding for it. Corporate and government research grants are all but gone, banks don't lend money for that stuff, and the only places that pay (universities) have erected nearly impassibly barriers to entry.

So here we are doing the same thing we’ve always done, toiled away our lives on generally pointless enterprises to make rent, while a few dispassionate sociopaths reap the benefits. The internet is completely broken right now in the way it ties data to its source. That’s not only likely, it’s destined, to be demolished here in the next few years. Stopping piracy is a fool’s errand, propped up by rent-seeking corporations that will go to the ends of the Earth, even undermine our legal system, to maintain the status quo.

What we should really be asking is how much longer we’re willing to tolerate the smoke and mirrors rather than just solving problems on a step by step basis once and for all. If we had a non-scarcity economy that did away with IP and started using technology to meet our basic needs, we wouldn’t need copyright in the first place. The robots could tend the hydroponic gardens while the living breathing humans could work on, I dunno, little things like enlightenment.
I have, with absolutely zero problems. I recommend them often. Not sure I'd trust them with PCI compliance requirements or something that heavy but I'd certainly use them for commodity VPSes over many others. They seem to offer a lot better performance/cost than DO.

Vultr is a brand of this company -- https://www.choopa.com -- and they've been around for a while.
I hit a similar problems when sending automated internal emails to a Google Groups address at my company. The problem was fixed by adding the following footer: "To unsubscribe, email <my-email-address>."
Well, for most microorganisms, traditional genetic engineering is perfectly fine. You just create long homology ends and transform the cell and it works peachy keen. (Ironically, the one organism for which this spectacularly fails is E. coli, requiring the lambda-red system).

For 'higher eukarya' the big problem is you can still do the long homology ends, but a competing process is random insertion. Basically (if my understanding is correct), CRISPR reduces the competing process and makes specific insertion of DNA the dominant result. Sometimes, though, having multiple random insertion is not a huge problem.
I have a friend/acquaintance who had a similar experience on YouTube itself. He had created a large number of instructional videos on his YouTube channel, and from them he was deriving a significant passive income (admittedly from the overbearing amount of ads he enabled). One day he received a takedown notice suggesting that his videos were illicit copies. His investigations led him to believe that another YouTube user had downloaded all of his videos, re-uploaded them under a different account (with even more, similarly-ripped videos) and then used the YouTube machinery to have the originals flagged. This did, indeed, appear to be the case when I checked out the other channel - there was a block of videos in this other user's history that all clearly originated on my friend's channel, even with the original author identifying himself in the voiceover.

He was unable to get YouTube to reinstate the original videos nor block the illicit new copies. After several months of shouting at the wall that is YouTube administration, he gave up and transferred his energy to creating numerous ad-laden blogs saturated also with Amazon affiliate links and embedded affiliate stores. On the one hand, it is possible that his original channel looked more like the channel of a spammer than the one that stole his videos (from my recollection of the old channel, not entirely implausible). On the other, it is possible that YouTube itself doesn't care much for its content creators outside of the few super-rich/popular/powerful users with enough influence to get their attention.
>What can I do except move to a hosted provider ?

To answer your question about what you can do, you can send mail to Google legal asking them to accept your mail gmail users - just copy your whole blog post, I'm sure they'll action it right away:

Antitrust is serious business. (They already have trouble in the EU for it - https://www.google.com/search?q=antitrust+eu+google - by the way I think it's completely unfounded.) It takes them seconds to whitelist you, and this really is a "15 seconds could save you $15 million on your next antitrust case" and anyone in Google legal can probably see that.

EDIT: I don't see how this got downvoted. This literally answers OP's question about what else he can do.
That's a fair point, but if you read the article, it reads like a post-mortem: "this is what happened, this is why it sucked, life goes on, let's try to not do this again."

Maybe competing websites (Voat in particular) got a bump because of what happened, but at the end of the day redditors aren't an activist crowd (or rather, they are a slacktivist crowd.) I doubt this will have any big consequences.

'LAVA' and 'INSIDE OUT' - a 'MOVIE TALK' Review;
super old news
The Norse Map used to have a little "about" section that explained how the map is a general aggregation of data and designed to show at a very high level what is going on, but doesn't provide any deep insight into each attack. The famous disclaimer "for entertainment purposes only" comes to mind, but in reality I think the Norse Map is just a really neat and sort-of functional advertisement for the capabilities of Norse. If you go to http://norsecorp.com, you'll see that the company behind the map is a security firm that wants you to pay for "real-time visibility into global cyber attacks", which means either signing up for their service that alerts you of weird activity on your network, or purchasing their appliance that can help block attacks at the point of entry. I'd conclude that the map is not really meant to actually provide real threat warnings, but rather a way to see into what the Norse Intelligence Service is capable of monitoring.
Doesn't the YouTube terms require that you allow some reuse of your video as long as its on there? The same thing goes on on YouTube itself where people create channels and aregate other popular videos.
Potential for misuse is near infinite though - imagine a privatized CRISPR inaccessible to the sub-$50 million/ year crowd.

I can imagine a lot worse than that. Imagine genetic engineering gets dirt cheap, and that does seem to be the direction we're headed. Novel pathogens are going to be a lot easier to design than treatments and preventative measures to protect against them. How do you stop the proliferation of bio-weapons? I'm thinking that would be about as easy as stopping the proliferation of malware.
Update: i used it last night, it seemed to help a lot. I cant be sure if it was due to being exhausted, but ill keep trying it!
Apple Drops Recovery Key in New 2FA for El Capitan and iOS 9
I did a little mucking on some AVR code of mine. Sometimes going from an uint8_t to a uint16_t saves a couple of bytes Sometimes adds a dozen.

One case changing an index in a for loop to an int, code went from 34024 bytes to 34018 (saved four bytes). But changing uint8_t i, j, k; to uint16_t i, j, k; code compiled to 34068 bytes, gain of 44 bytes.
"Yes, motivating creators is a problem, but there are many possible solutions." Could you outline couple of them? Let's say I want to publish an ebook.

You can obviously scale that to enable the amount of micromanaging you desire...
Spam filtering/tagging is more annoying than outright bans. Microsoft banned my IP from their email services, but helpfully sent bounces so I could appeal. This is the email equivalent of hellbanning.
Yeah, but we are spending millions of man hours dealing with spam so I don't see how Google messing with this guy is helping (assuming his speculation is correct).
You write C# code that gets compiled down to native code. Xamarin provides C# bindings for the platform's APIs. You can, therefore, do anything in C# that you would do in the platform's normal language.

This is appealing to those who prefer C#, and to those that want to share business logic between their iOS, Android, and WP apps, but want to write that logic in a higher-level language than C++.

Disclaimer: I work for Xamarin. Just saw your question was unanswered and thought I'd explain the basics.
you're both idiots
Some are, some aren't. I was going by Transcend's web site which says that they are full spectrum: "The fixture emits full-spectrum PAR light for 96,000 hours (10 years of 24/7 use)."

In theory, you can get a significant gain in efficiency by choosing specific wavelengths. In practice, it's difficult figure out exactly what these wavelengths should be, and to match them to existing high efficiency emitters.
(Unfortunately, it seems like there is some debate over who invented CRISPR and should be awarded the patent for it.)

Maybe the bacterium which first expressed a CRISPR sequence should be awarded the patent. We're just using the tools that nature invented for us!

I am not aware of any statistics on this subject. How exactly this is related to my observation?

All engineers I know who worth their salt acquired their skills mostly through self-education and lot of practice, and the process was gender-independent. I don't think 'boys-are-not-allowed' classes will put any of the participants closer to professional careers in coding.
This is a 'networking issue' not yet attributed to an adversarial compromise.

There is also an outage at United Airlines and the Wall Street Journal - none so far attributed to an attack.
Yes, URLs like that are commonly used in phishing emails, so that's my hunch as well. They're just not recognizing that such strings can appear in domains so I suspect it's a simple bug but probably not one they'll fix.
No, he's relaying his anecdote just like everyone else in this thread.

This is comedy gold.

As an American who isn't an Anglophile, I didn't know that Prince Philip was so "colorful". People used to make fun of George W. Bush, but Philip takes it to a whole other level. In half of those comments he's just the village idiot, in the other half he's a master of British humour.

Edit: of course, opinions will vary as to which comment belongs in which category.
Yeah, The Death and Life of Great American Cities is a good read if you want more detail about why this is a terrible idea (http://www.amazon.com/Death-Life-Great-American-Cities/dp/06...).

If you run your own MDA, you could do a lot worse than to filter incoming mail against https://www.spamhaus.org/zen/; the free tier is extremely broad, and the coverage is excellent -- I get maybe one spam email a week, tops.

Not that this is practical yet, or well implemented yet, but my favorite model for this would be the idea behind Flattr. https://flattr.com/

People who have money to pay for content, can designate an amount to donate per month. And then the "likes" that they place on content can cause their monthly budget to be divided up and paid to content creators each month. If Facebook implemented their own version of Flattr that could be game changing.
Yes, Facebook is a piracy heaven. It's not just for small video producers. Sport videos (which are really expensive) can be found for free in Facebook.

Example:

It costs four to eight thousand dollars assuming $2k in legal fees. That isn't easy.
There's something weird about the way you phrased this. You're aware that what you said was impolite, but you can't think of a way to be more polite. I think this might be related to the fact that you find the idea of seeing how things that you don't find offensive might be offensive to other people 'outlandish'.

What it suggests is a lack of empathy, which extends to your assuming that other people are also incapable of empathy. Sorry, I'm also not sure how to word that more politely.

Imagine, for a moment, that other people are honest in their assertion that they are offended (for example that women find some common, everyday behavior offensive and sexist).

Imagine, for a moment that other people are capable of feeling empathy for those people (for example, that they have learned, through empathy, to notice the same sexist behavior and find it offensive, even though they are not women).

Then you might realize that they are not 'spending time and effort to find offensiveness', but just capable of empathy. Sorry if that seems outlandish, but.. it's the truth, sorry.
It's a coherent opinion which makes sense, even if we don't agree with it. The claim isn't that the author is spamming, the claim is that the availability of effective spam filtering ("needs of the many") trades off against and ultimately outweighs the author's reasons for running his own small web server for his personal email ("needs of the few").
It was tough: especially since we have kids and wanted to make sure my daughter is in a good school.

OTOH, it's still a lot cheaper than Boulder, meaning hundreds of extra dollars a month in our pockets. And the place we did end up with is very nice.
You don't necessarily need to hit every cell in an organism to produce useful therapies. Most cells aren't going to be expressing the gene that's causing a disease, only cells in the affected tissue or organ need to be treated. In some cases, you may not even need to get all of the affected cells, just repairing a subset could improve outcomes. (1/8 of a functioning pancreas is a lot better than 0/8)
I'm also happy with Spamhaus Zen generally, but spam sent via Gmail is one category of email it won't stop, since it only blacklists pure spam sources, and Gmail is obviously a legitimate mailhost. I get a steady trickle of spam from Gmail addresses, mostly SEO-consultant spammers who grabbed my email from the whois info.
Yes, there's a technique called single-unit recording:

I think it's pretty rare to see an very selective response though, unless you're looking close to sensory neurons.
I get the impression they'd heard on the wire that something might go down.

Given the blame coming out of China, it wouldn't surprise me if they tried to crash the market on opening with a flurry of sells. Looks like NYSE got a whiff of the pending trades and the NSA stepped in. All trades dropped. Crisis averted. For now...
We're shocked.
We're not in disagreement.. this is actually why I created the post, out of personal frustrations.

This is exactly what I'm going to try and solve. After all the feedback received, this will definitely be my next project I'm taking on. If you have any specifics you could add, please please take the survey and sign up for the beta list. Or send me an email (in my profile) and perhaps we can send a couple quick back and forths on the major issues that you think need addressed. Would be nice to connect with fellow entrepreneurs, even if it's just to validate ideas :)
NASA’s New Horizons: A “Heart” from Pluto as Flyby Begins
As a white male, why would you expect to experience the mindset that is specific to women?

Perhaps you do encounter it, but just think it's so normal that you don't even recognize it.

The most obvious example I encounter is: a woman who may be of average or above average attraction, and the assumption is she is not an engineer, but instead:

a. Marketer

b. Sales

c. Social Media Manager

d. Community Manager

e. Office Assistant

Further examples--attractiveness means a woman got where she is because of something other than her technical ability.

Or even that attractiveness is even relevant at all.
Hosted gmail is not free unless you've been with them for a while. They started charging for domains a number of years ago.
I've had mail sent via my own server rejected by gmail because of a missing Message-ID header. The 550 reject message was the standard "Unsolicited Mail detected" text, the same mail was accepted without causing any fuzz once the Message-ID was added.
That seems like almost criminally incompetent by YT. They don't even look at upload timestamps in whatever automated or manual process they use for this?
