I love the detailed breakdown of how the front cover was made on page 4. That's so cool.


Thanks a ton! Much appreciated.


"Hours after Hutchins was arrested by the FBI, more than $130,000 (£100,000) of the bitcoin ransom taken by the creators of WannaCry was moved within the bitcoin network for the first time since the outbreak."


Brain cutting and histopathology See http://www.bu.edu/alzresearch/brain-cutting-636x433/

"one of a variety of silver impregnation staining techniques, such as the modified Bielschowski or Gallyas technique, or the fluorochrome dye thioflavin S is typically employed to visualize neurofibrillary tangles

Because these techniques require either specialized equipment (the thioflavin S stain requires the use of a fluorescence microscope with specialized excitatory and barrier filters) or experienced histotechnologists (in the case of silver impregnation stains), most anatomic pathologists in general practice lack the capability to properly evaluate brain specimens submitted for the diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease. Such specimens are best referred to specialized neuropathology laboratories where the necessary experience and facilities are in place."

Not surprised. I have been using BTRFS for years. Unfortunately, one gets the feeling that not too much development has been going into it.


Having been using BTRFS at home for years, i get the exact opposite impression... I've had bugs (kernel panics) that just disappear on the next update. I'm happy with the RAID1 ease of use. But even there, like some have said, manual scrub/balance--which is still nice to have--indicates a design flaw.

If I was in ops I would not use btrfs on anything but lab experiments... if i can get hardware RAID, then I can blame the vendor and the equipment


Another classic paper by John McCarthy, the father of Lisp and much of early AI.


Anyone who dares suggest otherwise, must have been suborned by Mr Putin, ISIS or Mr Andrew Breitbart...


From the number of downvotes I have received, I can see that sarcasm is a foreign concept to many....

(Do not despair, Mr Trump will make all these evil foreign things go away )


"If you don't come to HN to have your preconceptions challenged, then what are we doing here?"

Like other forums, HN is largely an echochamber for those who think alike. Break any of the largely unspoken conventions here, and see what happens to you....
