the point is not leaving, the point is that he cares (enough) about Elm to try to ring the alarm that its leadership is bad and needs to change.

wow. ask yourself what part of your social self this kind of comment came from, the good part, or the bad part.

that would require one to keep in mind all the $PATH values and their order, which doesn't sound fun.

the media storm has been the most disheartening thing to me. the media (all media: the news, social, tv, print) exist to serve your eyeballs to advertisers. the biggest, scariest headlines win, and it really seems like outlets are only too

i'm sorry, this is really awful :( can you contact your current apartment landlord and see what they can do, given the circumstances? hang in there.

you're right, testing is the long term solution. you can't control what you can't measure. the embarrassing point is that in the US, isolation is the only effective tool at this point. it's embarrassing because ramping u

that page has a WebRing at the bottom! what a blast from the past. this is what sites used to do before aggregators and search engines dominated.

serious question: all of the reporting around the FBI and its intentions focuses on iPhones. There is not much reporting about android phones, though. Is this because they are generally not as airtight in design as iphones are? Is it becaus

those are probably all signed binaries. what would be more telling is if other anti virus tools reported the same thing about the test binary in question.

Same boat here. Even for technical searches, which ddg is supposed to be good at, I would routinely find the Google results of much more accuracy and quality. Finally switched back. Luckily, for the things I search, ads are not usually a pr

this doesn't make sense. if the user wants to replace the default with a spammy app, they should have every right to (with explicit UI to do so). spammy app will get uninstalled enough and the market will direct them to not be spammy o

The app admittedly can do nothing about overseas callers. I feel as though those are the large majority of scam calls I receive.

What a great way to put it. What's great is that learning assembly is like taking the first step to understanding the bridge between software and hardware. I remember a taking class that started out as confusing as hell. The first few

So we have to bring it up every few days? Just look at this comment thread. All switch stories. At this point it's preaching to the choir.

Time for the weekly Chrome bash thread on HN. Cue the "I also switched to ddg and it's great!" Seriously, why does this happen so much here? I'm not even talking about the merits of the argument (I switched to Firefox),

Woodworking. What's cool about this is that it can scale with the amount of space/money you have to dedicate. Start building little boxes, you can do it with just a Japanese have saw and some glue, maybe some clamps. Stain it to m

I would say as long as it's not interfering with the rest of your life, it's perfectly fine. The breadth of quality games available in this era is really remarkable. To be able to explore that universe and have real experiences is

The attack on a difficult profession that already suffers from stigmas is not necessary or welcome.

This is misguided. If you look at any large cmake build, the cmake language is not the source of problems. It's the expressivity of the language that's the source of problems. Without rigorous style guides, developers can get as w

Not to mention that this works out to almost 3 fishing articles per month. I would wager that that kind of throughput for fishing articles is already very rare.

To take your argument to its conclusion, what if someone at Ascension wanted damaging information on one of its patients? They'd be legally liable. Same as those they sign BAA with.

Well, that seems a lot less sensational than the article. Covers HIPAA as well.

It's interesting to wonder if the marvel comics themselves are created as you say, by motivated individuals or by committee. Definitely the origin stories (at least the ones we've been fed) are of one, sometimes two, writers, hatc

It's hard to believe that. The large majority of commentary here is negative towards Google, and in fact most of the big guys. Are you saying you got a private message about this?

Well, developers are the kind of people that love to be contrarian, so it shouldn't be that surprising. Half the fun (in my mind) is doing something no one else is doing. Being novel. It's probably unwise in a business sense, but

Just by way of example, operation Ajax cost "$100,000 to $20 million." Surely this is not a lot of money compared to what Iran could have spent against it, but it was effective nonetheless. The point being that precision spending
