It would be a pipe dream, but at the conclusion of the gag period there should additionally be a disclosure requirement - like a data breach notification. That would help balance out the desire to keep these things under wraps.

<i>> Can C begin the lifetime of a C++ object?</i><p>Yes. C++14 Standard §3.8p1:<p><i>...An object is said to have non-vacuous initialization if it is of a class or aggregate type and it or one of its members is initialized by a constructor other than a trivial default constructor... The lifetime of an object of type T begins when:</i><p><i>— storage with the proper alignment and size for type T is obtained, and</i><p><i>— if the object has non-vacuous initialization, its initialization is complete.</i><p>Since class "C" is standard-layout and has a trivial default constructor (in this case none at all), assuming that malloc allocates memory that is suitably aligned for "C", the function make_s returns a pointer to an instance of C++ class "C" whose lifetime has begun.<p>Edit: Thanks for asking btw. I use similar code in a project of mine but never actually checked whether it is actually standard-conforming.

Part of the reason may be that three point shooting has become much more popular in the NBA. Consider it: In many cases, if you shoot from a few steps further back then your reward increases 50%. Current MVP Stephan Curry is the epitome of this trend.<p>Also, driving to the basket, probably his leading alternative, takes speed, strength, and the ability to take a beating. Probably all those abilities declined as he aged.

That's what, gone are the days when we'd spend hours and hours to learn the little little ways of vi and the myriad functions in emacs. Now we need to get things done, can't afford to sit down and study the entire functions of vi and emacs. I don't mean to troll but after switching to vscode and the go plugin I learned go webdev and wrote this small intro book,
<a href="http://github.com/thewhitetulip/web-dev-golang-anti-textbook/" rel="nofollow">http://github.com/thewhitetulip/web-dev-golang-anti-textbook...</a><p>That is the power of vscode, it provided a good enough way to play with code, yes not outright innovation, but an awesome text editor nonetheless.

From the link I see:<p>> The following example JVM settings are recommended for most production engine tier servers:
-server -Xms24G -Xmx24G -XX:PermSize=512m -XX:+UseG1GC -XX:MaxGCPauseMillis=200 -XX:ParallelGCThreads=20 -XX:ConcGCThreads=5 -XX:InitiatingHeapOccupancyPercent=70<p>So Oracle mentions 200ms for most prod use. I am not sure how you are able to deduct ~10ms pause from that link.<p>And just because one can configure ~10ms does not mean at JVM will start respecting it. There is nothing in any official document by Oracle about max GC pause time. The results Google threw are mostly around ~150ms as min pause.<p>> It also has a state-of-the-art generational GC.<p>And it needs something like<p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Java-Performance-Charlie-Hunt/dp/0137142528" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/Java-Performance-Charlie-Hunt/dp/01371...</a><p>to do what JVM can do in theory. In practice as a java users I am used to seeing ~20-30 sec pauses for Full GC.<p>The only effort in open for sub 10ms GC for large heaps is Project Shenandoah:<p><a href="http://openjdk.java.net/jeps/189" rel="nofollow">http://openjdk.java.net/jeps/189</a><p>and it is long way from availability.

I feel like if you use `rm -rf` particularly `--force` with privileges, it shouldn't be the job of Unix to stop you.<p>Also tangentially, if you don't have a sensible backup in place that would protect you from (or at least mitigate) a complete wipe of a single machine (or even all primary ones), you are doing something wrong.

Media extolling people who pour themselves into work does not help. Those are the people many of us ( at least I ) look up to.<p>I am working on my second start up. On top of that I freelance for income. There is little time for "life". The problematic part ( or maybe not ) is that I am loving it. It has definitely affected my relationships, I have lost a few friends but I really enjoy work. Maybe it will have a negative effect as I grow older. Maybe I will burnout soon. Time will tell.

I like that question (how will failures be dealt with)<p>Other questions I like:<p>* what are you looking for this position to do?<p>* what does success in this role look like?<p>I do data science so success is a little harder to define than in a software engineering role. It's a warning sign when employers want you to come in and spread some machine machine learning on things to generate profits in a business that so far is not doing so, or when you hear different descriptions of the role from most interviewers. It makes me believe that the business doesn't have consensus on what they want someone to do, and therefore, I will have a very hard time succeeding.

>No, socialism says focusing on group cooperation optimizes aggregate wealth. Socialism says that somewhere between a completely shared economy and a completely private economy is a sweet spot where you get the best of both worlds.<p>Socialism may claim that but the results are very anti-social as demonstrated in my previous comment. You say "no" in response to my comment concerning socialism preventing two people from entering an agreement--then why can't I hire someone for $4 an hour, if that's what they and I agree upon? That's just one of dozens of possible scenarios I could mention which socialism prohibits.<p>>You're very focused on this "socialism is anti-social" stance<p>Yes, as that was the idea I was refuting from the parent comment.<p>>but not only does it not make any intuitive sense, it is not backed up by any data. Show me a modern, prosperous state that absolutely abstains from social programs or promoting collective interest.<p>Does the absence of a modern state which meets this criteria prove the point? Hardly. It does not follow. We need not compare state to state, as socialist programs are typically applied to individual sectors of an economy. Take any sector of the modern economy which is heavily affected by socialist programs and you will find a sector which is scraping by. You will find corruption and you will find greater public outrage. Healthcare being a prime example. Ironically progressives blame the short comings in these sectors on capitalism.<p>>The very idea of a state is a threat to (completely) free exchange of property and labor.<p>I agree. I would like to see more thought, more experiment and more results to see how little of a state might be accomplished.

Interesting points. I think systems like Burroughs counter the concept in the a <i>lot</i> of safety can be baked into a system. Here's what they did in 1961:<p><a href="http://www.smecc.org/The%20Architecture%20%20of%20the%20Burroughs%20B-5000.htm" rel="nofollow">http://www.smecc.org/The%20Architecture%20%20of%20the%20Burr...</a><p>Notice that's good UI design for the time, hardware elimination of worst problems, interface checks on functions, limits of what apps can do to system, and plenty recovery. Systems like NonStop, KeyKOS, OpenVMS, XTS-400, JX, and so on added to these ideas. You can certainly bake a strong foundation of safety into a system while allowing plenty flexibility.<p>So, for example, critical files should be write-protected except for use by specific software involved in updates or administrative action. Many above systems did that. Then, one can use VMS-style, versioned filesystem that leaves originals in there in case a rollback is needed so long as there's free space for that. Such a system handling backups and restores with modern-sized HD's wouldn't have nuked everything. Might have even left everything if using lean setup but can't say for this specific case.<p>"You can't design a sword that can be used safely by the untrained."<p>A sword is designed to do damage. A better example would be a saw that's designed to be constructive but with risk of cutting your hand off. Even that can be designed to minimize risk to user.<p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=esnQwVZOrUU" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=esnQwVZOrUU</a><p>"If you've picked the former right, (backing up human-readable information rather than data only readable by software programs that might go away in a crash) then risk is minimized."<p>That's orthogonal. A machine-readable format just needs a program to read it. The risk is whether the data is <i>actually there</i> in whole or part. This leads to mechanisms like append-only storage or periodic, read-only backups that ensure it's there. Or these clustered, replicated filesystems on machines with RAID arrays that lots of HPC or cloud applications use. Also, multiple, geographical locations for the data.<p>People doing the above with proven protocols/tools rarely loose their data. Then there's this guy.

Atom has a great Go plugin: linting, context aware completion, fixes code style on save, etc..., all powered by Go's command line tools.<p>I'm not saying Vim and Emacs are the be-all (I program mostly in R, so RStudio is my main tool), only that VS Code hasn't changed anything fundamentally. It's just a good editor.

Living in a rural area isn't a lifestyle choice when the cities are so far apart. If the cities were every 40-60 miles, it might be. I live 2 hours from the nearest city that has any significant public transport (central Pennsylvania). Getting rid of a car isn't worth introducing a 2 hour drive to visit family that lives here -- they're why we live here in the first place.<p>We used to live in southwest Missouri. Losing the car would probably have put us anywhere from 3 to 8 (driving) hours away from anyone we knew, depending on how the public transit is in Kansas City or Tulsa or St. Louis. I wouldn't be surprised if Chicago was the closest city where you could really be fine without a car.

it starts with the speed, atom is clunky and slow. If I do not have any other alternative them Atom is good enough, but geany and vscode are way way better than atom. I'd rather do all fancy plugin stuff of atom using python and use geany than use Atom because of its slow speed. I wonder why anyone isn't doing anything for that considering github is the company being atom and that vscode and atom both are based on electron yet vscode is so damn faster than atom

My impression is that the more "reputable" such services have a series of steps that they take that could plausibly affect reputation. (E.g. "We monitor these sites for mentions of your firm; when negative reviews show up we work with you to overwhelm those with positive reviews.") It isn't clear that those steps do actually improve anything we could classify as "online reputation".

I'm in a somewhat similar position although I'm not in the UK. I've spent a good while "under the stone" working on my product and I do have some great relationships with investors/customers, but I don't have any strong connections with technical folks so it's a bit lonely at times. In all fairness though, I've been so busy lately that networking isn't a top priority.<p>If I were you I would try to find a Meetup and invite myself, get out of your comfort zone. I've had a lot of success doing that and it's one of the better decisions I've made in the past year.

I see eating those as more akin to part of its sexual reproduction and continuation of life, like a bee taking nectar from a flower. As far as I understand it, Natural order works where a "food" matures, falls, and an "animal" eats it and passes its seeds through its digestive system. This process deposits the seeds in a fertilized position to grow its next generation. In a more poetic form, you can hear this in the Mahamrityunjaya Mantra[0,1] (Great Death-conquering Mantra), ~"...like a good gardener releases the cucumber from captivity (of its stem), free me from death but not from immortality."<p>0: <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mahamrityunjaya_Mantra#Literal_Meaning_of_the_Maha_Mrityunjaya_Mantra" rel="nofollow">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mahamrityunjaya_Mantra#Literal...</a><p>1: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q1uj3_rW7Uc" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q1uj3_rW7Uc</a>

Sorry to hear that is your impression @nkrisc. You probably tested our Beta 1 (Public Preview) released in March, that is our first beta, so there is a lot to be done. We have a new preview (Public Preview 2) going out in April with a lot more features. And yes, you can expect a tight integration with Photoshop or Illustrator, it's just a matter of copying and pasting items from them to XD. You can even bring content from Sketch: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TyoFGyENt3g" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TyoFGyENt3g</a> Looking forward to hearing your thoughts, and please expect a lot more features landing in our monthly releases. This is just the beginning :)

I think you just proved my point of why no one is changing their mind on this issue. You went from saying you had a trivial mathematical argument to debating semantics and disagreeing on the meaning of the word "angel". Politicians thrive on those type of semantic arguments. If you want to change their minds, you have to get better at explaining that mathematical argument more convincingly than this video did or you did in your first post.

>> "Nope. If you were sensible you would put the money you saved by renting into investments, and you would have at least a year of runway before being on the streets. With a mortgage (assuming your mortgage is higher than rent, and you can't save much) you will have about 90 days before being kicked out."<p>That's assuming your rent would be cheaper than your mortgage. My impression is that it's the other way around and that's what my assumption was based on. Also, if you lose your job you can probably re-negotiate mortgage payments. That's not going to be possible when renting and if you have a family finding somewhere suitable (still close to schools/doctors etc.) and less expensive is going to be difficult - especially considering you'll need to come up with another deposit.<p>>> "Belfast is completely different to London in terms of commuting. Also, house prices haven't gone up the same way they have in London."<p>You must have missed the sentence before what you quoted: "Also, outside of London I don't think commuting is as big of a thing here."

My younger cousin has an Xbone and I've seen how <i>awful</i> it can be with WiFi. In this case, anytime there's some interruption in WiFi the thing requires a cold reboot to reconnect (even though it claims it's connected and all services are operational) and sometimes having to forget and sign back in to the network.

Don't know why people are down voting him. From what I've seen, the damn thing's network stack will often times go nuts - never seen a networked device behave like this. It'll claim it's connected, you'll be able to see your friends online, browse content, but not join their party, actually initiate any online game etc, all the while other folks currently online and in the same region see no issue. It's baffling. Many times cold reboots won't fix it.<p>I'm sure the Xbox Live infrastructure has changed a lot since I left Xbox in 2010, but based on how things worked back then, seeing this on Xbone I'm at a loss for how the hell this could happen

I understand; I just think you're being a little harsh on the OP, even if their language was a bit exuberant. They said they tried Atom and found it too slow, so if VSC was the first "3rd gen editor" (a term I just made up) that was usable in their workflow, then for them, it <i>is</i> a revolution. Assume good faith when comments are ambiguous :)

They aren't really comparable. Rust is a lower level language that primarily competes with C++ (finally! C++ badly needs the competition). C++ is still around because it is one of the few languages that has a pay-as-you-go model to features and is not GCd, so, you can reasonably do things like write embedded software for micro-controllers, or kernels, etc.<p>Go, Python and Java (or any JVM language) are all high level garbage collected languages that focus on developer productivity. You pay certain costs just as the price of entry, like garbage collection, and the requirement for a fairly hefty runtime. In return you get various useful features.<p>Examples:<p>You would not use Rust to write a large complex webapp as part of a corporate team, that spends most of its time talking to databases or message queues. The best tool for this from your list would be Java.<p>You would not use Rust to write a small script to do system administration tasks or quickly prototyping a new idea. The best tool for this from your list would be Python.<p>You would not use Rust to write a small, simple command line tool that nonetheless could benefit from being garbage collected. You could use Go for that (I hesitate to say it's the best tool but plenty of people use it in that way).

So... there's no evidence the "Justice Department can search your computer if Win10 is installed" assuming your device is actually secure. Bad passwords, no supported integrated TPM or other issues (common to custom built machines) will comprimise your local device security and thusly make them the easiest method of attack.<p>If served a lawful subpoena, ANY cloud service provider may be required to hand over your data if they have that power. If you've got something truly critical (e.g., evidence you're transsexual in NC and use the "illegal"/correct bathroom) you should encrypt it even on top of what your CSP does. Windows, OSX and Linux all offer methods for doing this effectively.<p>I've used OneDrive with encrypted VHDs. It works fine, so long as you don't access the VHD from multiple places at once. I do this more because my OneDrive syncs to a surfacebook than because I am concerned about subpoenas.<p>As for the telemetry collected, it's probably not of any use to them. It's the same sort of stuff every app on your phone sends up to mixpanel. I wouldn't worry about that, as it's not a substantially greater privacy violation than the natural telemetry collected by the cell network and local ISPs. The only way it might be used against you is in proving a certain access pattern to the device at a certain time.

Please, elaborate how VSCode changed the way we write code on Unix? I mean, repeat your statement out loud and ask yourself how big statement you just said. No way in hell how VSCode change the way we write code as much as you stated, no way even Atom did that. Like it or not TextMate came first, and soon after that Sublime Text took over. Yeah, like it or hate it, ST with it’s very well known default monokai theme changed most of the things in terms of GUI Editors for programming.<p>I mean, what is going on, why people tend to blow VSCode out of the water about how good it is!? I mean, ok it is cool, has some really nifty features I would like to have in some X editor, but no way in hell it is as game-changing as people state. And I really can't see my self switching from Vim to VSCode. Even when I decide to use GUI Editor (I am not HC vim user, for some environments I use it, for others I don't), it is Sublime. I ditched Sublime for Atom since December, and on OS X, it is working very well. Not blazingly fast and smooth as Sublime, but it is far far better than before.<p>But all in all I am not biting that Electron base for text editor. I mean ok, JS is cool, web is the future, flexible cross-platform solutions are the thing, but it still isn't comparable to native stuff. At least to me, it is getting there year by year but still a long way to go.

So, this looks pretty damn awesome, and I want to try it out yesterday! Seems like a lot of people are worried about privacy, and I guess I understand that. But I want this for when I'm learning a new language, and I honestly don't much care what happens with that code.<p>Also I think people are way too worried about their code. It's vanishingly rare that _the code_ is where the value in a business is. "But if I had Google's source code, I could run my own search engine and put them out of business!" Really? Could you? Because last I checked, Google has more engineers working on search than any other company on the planet. The stuff they do next week is probably going to improve their code more than what you would do by yourself for the entire year. And that's just the code, there's far more to search than algorithms.

Because it's a syntax that needs no extra explanation.<p>It's not a superset, so no extra add-on features need extra doc, and it's less of a subset then JSON so the rules of what's disallowed are much simpler.

> Atom was around before VSCode<p>Nope. Visual Studio Code was created before Atom.[1] Although both VS Code and Atom are based on Electron[1] and are both Chrome-based.

> ...it's the broken ones who turn to crime.<p>If law were derived from universal morals (heh...) then that might be accurate. But due to the relatively arbitrariness of whether or not someone is a criminal, especially with respect to the great variety of countries in which virtually all of HN would be criminals for freely speaking about various topics, I think it's a bit presumption and mean to call those who "turn to" crime as broken.<p>Additionally, I would posit that many criminals are not "turning to" crime so much as not "turning away." By that, I mean that crime is not sought out, but rather the criminality of their actions is ignored, much like I presume the mindset is of the majority of jaywalkers.<p>> Furthermore it's the EXTREMELY broken ones that become the crime lords etc. and those people often have massive flaws in their character such as the arrogance you described.<p>Once again, I take issue with the use of broken to describe someone's actions simply on the basis that a group of people disagree with them. "Extremely broken" implies some serious psychological issues, which are not at all requisite for running an illegal enterprise. I would posit that many of the people involved in controlling bootleg DVD sales or knockoff brand name goods are in fact very normal and psychologically uninteresting.<p>I do agree with the assumption of arrogance, as much like politicians, the drive to control on a grand scale typically requires a decent amount of ego, it's incredibly difficult for an individual to exert control of an empire with humility, although I think it's possible, it's just <i>very</i> unlikely outside of a very peaceful organization, which his was most certainly not. Violent groups of people are difficult to control in a non-Machiavellian manner (I would think impossible, but I haven't given it much thought) and I sincerely disbelieve one could rule in such a manner without a decent ego.

not to disagree with what you're trying to say, but "it could be worse" isn't a good argument on it's own.

It's worthwhile to note that John Chen called out Apple for refusing to unlock an iPhone for the US government. (No, not the San Bernardino one, but a different one in a criminal case; I believe Apple has unlocked iPhones in other cases though.)<p>Quote:
"<i>In fact, one of the world’s most powerful tech companies recently refused a lawful access request in an investigation of a known drug dealer because doing so would “substantially tarnish the brand” of the company. We are indeed in a dark place when companies put their reputations above the greater good.</i>"<p>I guess it depends on your definition of "the greater good".<p><a href="http://blogs.blackberry.com/2015/12/the-encryption-debate-a-way-forward/" rel="nofollow">http://blogs.blackberry.com/2015/12/the-encryption-debate-a-...</a>

<i>concerned about the fact the Amazon didn't attempt one of these lawsuit earlier.</i><p>I have no idea why you're bringing up Amazon since the article is about Microsoft.<p>That said, assuming you're asking the question about MSFT: Microsoft has <i>always</i> been a lapdog of the Feds, as evidenced by handing over hotmail data simply from a pleasant LEA request, to centralizing and backdooring skype, to removal of the elephant diffuser, to jumping at the chance to join PRISM, to any number of chunks of evidence.<p>But now that data security is a <i>marketable</i> good (per Apple's example), MSFT feels the fiduciary duty to pretend to fight the Feds for profit.<p>Whenever a fundamentally evil actor gives a show of doing good, <i>always</i> follow the money.

You know the sad thing is that even this isn't idiot-proof and needs to be qualified. One of my customer's brilliant "cost-saving" measures was to have an offsite backup solution that was basically an rsync script that ran every 15 minutes.<p>So when someone on their end did something catastrophic to their data and it took them an hour to notice, they were incredulous that we couldn't help them restore their data even though it was "backed up offsite!" because their "backup" solution had already caught up and duplicated the broken data.

The issue with Vim is that the editor has several hundred/thousand idioms and everybody uses a different subset. As an example, most people delete words with `dw` while I usually use `dt<space>` because the t/f motions generalize to subwords. Until you have the majority of your personal subset implemented, vim support in a given editor is "bad".<p>I've thought about doing a vim implementation for years where motions are expressed as composable functions projecting from text range to text range with commands taking a list of text ranges, mostly because I'd like to whether non-text based motions (e.g. AST based or generalized cursors) would work. I like VSCode and expect to move over to it so I've thought about starting my project but the scope of doing a good implementation is daunting.<p>Congrats on the 1.0 release, VSCode is a great product.

Electron (formerly called Atom-shell) was created for Atom.<p>The source you cited even says this!
