Very nice!

Most recipe websites these days are horrible (poor layout, annoying popups/popovers, crazy amounts of content that have little or nothing to do with the recipe....). The minimalism of this website is refreshing. I only wish the website itself was also open source. It would be pretty cool to be able to collaborate on and enhance the site (and a SCM hosting platform like GitHub or GitLab would provide a built-in way for maintainers to evaluate new recipe submissions, etc.)
> Solving your problems is your problem. Not mine.

No, solving the company's problems is both our problems. You have a tremendously adversarial attitude toward your coworkers. Why don't you trust them to know the cost of interrupting you and decide whether or not it's a net gain?
I wonder where's the limit to what our minds can comprehend. It's fascinating we went this far, since brain didn't evolve to study physics.

1. Xiaomi's highly efficient business model will be largely copied by some other hardware companies(not only in phones), and together with it's multi product strategy - we'll start to see a big mess happening in the consumer hardware sector.

2. real time fmri will prove it's worth in the first clinical trial (for treating traumatic brain injury). This will cause an in rush of investment in the sector - both for applications in mental health , and applications in "peak performance" .

3. A long range wireless for the IOT will start deployment around most of the us - and will become a very common target for IOT stuff.

4. Deep learning will become usable by standard , non expert developers.
While I'm sure you'd be pretty mad - as would I, that doesn't make it an optimal approach. Unless you lock up or kill these people, they'll return to society. Once they do, you want them not to cause the same harm to others. Rehabilitation is the right play.

Are they asking for charity? If not then their circumstances shouldn't be relevant, just their ability to pay.

> you're obviously aware that in general, obese adults are not deprioritized for treatment as compared to non-obese adults.

They are. If you're up for a contested treatment (a rare organ, a diagnostic machine that's always in use) you're given a score that represents your health and ability to benefit. Obesity isn't a total black mark but it absolutely is considered. However, we don't consider why you're fat, fat is just a health risk and we recognize that and don't waste effort where it won't be rewarded.
anyone know of one of these sites where they don't send your phone number / email to the server? The /search endpoint phone_number param has your number.

They should instead hash your number client side and test the hash.
Of the 2.3 million people currently serving time in the US prison system, less than 10% are incarcerated for some kind of homicide. When you consider that murder carries the longest sentences, the proportion looks even smaller.

The idea that all prisoners can be compared to murderers is a major reinforcing myth that perpetuates the system of abuse and allows people to tell themselves it's okay. It's not okay.

The world looks at us in horror, rightly.
> It doesn't fill me with joy that a 2020 game would make that choice.

I can rephrase: "It doesn't fill me with joy that any game company in 2020, particularly one known for encouraging modding, would hard-code marriage as between a man and a woman"
Aza is correct. The fundamental problem inhibiting good personal health is lack of timely feedback. In healthcare, feedback always happens too late. The beer I drink tonight doesn't affect me until my liver fails. Overeating doesn't become a problem until your are stuck in a vicious cycle.

With that said, for the majority of the healthy population, the main indicator of health is weight. Thus for the personal health space, the holy grail is a device which automatically measures the caloric input/output. When I say automatic, I really mean automatic. No writing/taking pictures/tweeting about your food or exercise. Think a watch that tells you how many more calories you can eat in the day. Anything more complicated will fail.

Aza does point out an example population which would be assisted by better technology - individuals with chronic health problems. These people are faced with their disease everyday, whether they want to think about it or not, so they have the most to gain from new technology. There is a niche in improving the "diabetes diary", but in my mind the real power comes from a complete feedback loop. One which encourages care providers (physicians, nurses, etc.) to be more involved in managing their conditions. Think about giving your diabetes diary to your physician. Patterns would emerge for the physicians that would not be seen by the patient. This data could then be the catalyst for change in how the patient manages their disease.

The problem right now is that no personal health system exists with connects patients and providers. The data which resides in your medical record is locked into proprietary systems which are vary reluctant to "open" data. However, the landscape is beginning to change. Industry is realizing a the game-changing health applications need the underlying data which is being housed in clinical institutions to function optimally. Check out SMArt Platforms if your interested in this push.

Summary

Be very careful in the personal health space. Two things I've learned after being in the industry for a while (1) it's very difficult to get people to care enough about their health to take action on it and (2) the most useful applications are the ones which connect patients and care providers which is difficult due to lack of data liquidity.

It’s a common symptom in cannabis withdrawals. A lot of people are not even aware of it’s existence, since the legalization of cannabis in many areas it’s becoming a very common reason people go to the ER (without knowing that it’s linked to their cannabis use)
Those are my exact thoughts as well. I guess it was supposed to be more of an overview of the findings, but it's a shame that we didn't get a more in-depth summary about the findings and get more context about the content that they showed.
After my HTC Desire started failing me I looked at my options wide and deep. I was inclined to just get "candy bar" device like this one. Fed up with the battery and fragility - tho I almost never carried my Desire in a case (and other stuff you mention).

But then as my phone gave up on me before I found a replacement I started using a "cand bar" phone and found out that I actually like some smartphone features - like a good autocomplete keyboard, the ability to track my post packages, check bus timetable and occasionally to look up something on the internet (I'm a patient man, it doesen't need to render webpages _that_ fast).

And I came to conclusion that I would enjoy a relatively small, well build and long lasting smartphone that doesen't need to run games (and many apps at once) or have GPS/Nav, voice control,... and whatnot features that I don't use (and can't even remove usually). I think that the technology itself is advanced enough for such a device - there're even some cheap Chinese ones that look promising for what I need (for example Xiaomi Redmi 1S or Redmi 2).

Great idea. Reminds me of memolane.

So if gmail or yahoo or hotmail or whatever, suddenly decided that your username is trademarked and "moved" your email, without notifying you or giving you a chance to contest the trademark infringement, you'd be ok with it? You'd sympathize with yourself but wouldn't be outraged with their actions?
Correct me if I'm wrong: Titanium compiles to Objective-C.

This is, of course, different since it runs actual JavaScript code. Does Apple prohibit use of Titanium? Sorry I wasn't following this for some time.
I agree. The author is confusing the language with how well it's used. Java still has the advantage of running within a virtual machine while being faster than interpreted languages.

If you don't want to tie yourself to a single platform and require speed, it's still a good choice.
reddit's down.
Why? They're a social media consultancy. They must be familiar with SEO.
That could be implemented fairly easily using coroutines. Redis could start the script in a coroutine, then if it yields, return whatever values it yielded back to the user and schedule the coroutine to be finished later. When Redis has nothing to do, it could go back and restart the coroutine, then discard it once it finally returns. (Though of course the user would have no way of getting whatever values it yielded after the command returned - it would have to communicate by storing a key somewhere, or possibly with publish/subscribe.)
Unless you are actually applying to a company in the video game industry, I would highly recommend that you avoid trying to use this as legitimate bullet point on your resume. In my experience, unless a person is a game player themselves, it is very difficult to see the value in such a potion, or organization skill required to maintain it. In fact, a great deal of people might see it in a bad light, which of course is the opposite of the intended effect.

That said, if you are certain that you want to go this route, make sure you mention it only briefly, and couch the experience in terms that are a bit more obtuse than you would otherwise. For example, instead of saying your position was for a guild in EVE, state that it was a leadership role in a 2500+ strong online community. Emphasize the elements of the position that directly relate to the skills that a prospective employer would hire you for. Most importantly, keep it short, very short. It should be the icing on the cake for an employer, almost an afterthought, something that solidifies their interest in you. And if you find yourself in a place where you need to explain the position further, don't start gushing about the gameplay aspect of it, stay steady and calm and direct any conversation about it towards the importance of the role and the responsibility and trust you carried while you held it.
Completely agree with what OP is saying, but I think he means a four year vesting period, not a four year cliff. A cliff is the amount of time you have to wait until your shares start vesting. The vesting period is the length of time it takes for all your shares to vest.

The standard agreement in Silicon Valley is a four year vesting period with a one year cliff. You'd had to be insane to agree to a four year cliff.

You know, personal emails to and from friends and family is probably the smallest part of your gmail used space.

Feel free to never decide whether to delete those emails and keep them forever.

Also, worth noting, is that gmail shares its storage with google drive and google+ photos. So if you use a bunch of google drive/ g+ photos, you have less space for email.

The headline "Golang is trash" is very misleading. The author has nothing to say about Go the language, but spends a lot of time on the toolchain - which is arguably not part of the language at all.

In any case, it's not surprising that much of the `C` toolchain was ditched. There are few things more frustrating than trying to compile and link complicated C programs across platforms (the only thing that comes to mind are C++ programs).
>We don't like this, but the implementations to secure DNS (DANE, etc.)

DANE is just another half-assed semi-solution that shifts the trust problem around a bit.

A really good solution requires huge infrastructure change. The only currently viable solution to Zooko's Triangle is Namecoin (or a similar technology).

It is not possible to forcibly change a Namecoin entry via legal channels.
The examples are for Python 2, not 3. But it's blatantly obvious that you are more interested in "not being wrong" than discussing Python's compiler so I'll stop here.
Who wouldn't? But for every good thing about unions I can name you a bad. It's a matter of the individual and how they are effected. As an example, look at Camden, NJ. Most of it's industry vacated for other states because union labor in New Jersey is extraordinarily high (and powerful).

Another example, look at the cost of Metlife Stadium vs. whatever the stadium the Cowboys play in now. it's about 30% HIGHER in cost. Again, no fancy gadgets or beach front property, it's in swampland occupied by highways built by union labor.

Unions historically have done great things for workers and continue to do so. However, they have a habit of forcing corporations to move elsewhere and pissing off non-union laborers as a result.
I don't see why you are being downvoted. The allegation of rapes, both filed on the same day, sound like the cheapest way to get an international mandate for him indeed.
I remember reading an article (or mayba was it in a book?) about that; a parallel was made with the checklists in airplanes, after the crash of the B17 prototype in the '30s. If only I could find a link...
I don't think it exists in print and I'm guessing that it's fairly new. Since it's free, is there a reason you can't just take a look through the chapters and decide for yourself whether or not to use it?
I've put a bit of work into a python library for Google Reader: http://github.com/askedrelic/libgreader

There is another Perl library on github that supports pretty much everything Reader does.

The Reader API has unofficially existed for awhile, but they don't seem to mind you using it. They just added OAuth support a few months ago as well.
This is even less relevant than the last tweet from this guy, which was also killed off HN. Flagged!
"Met him at 4 PM, and got the 'welcome aboard!' e-mail at 6:15."

Not really an exception if it wasn't a rejection. Once a company decides to bring you aboard it's in their interest to make haste.
Surely your not suggesting that a hostel always has privacy, a door that locks, private bathroom, prime location in a CBD and the other things mentioned?
I appreciate you providing sources and a level headed post.. but I don't understand how anyone can claim the media is not reporting on something, and then link directly to media about that thing.
I actually think this was mislabeled in the video. It appears to be a camera lens - not a projector lens.
Yes. common pattern, hack a site or its DNS and add spam to fill search engines.
> So really you are just saying this was caused by FOX

Read more closely, that's not what I said.

So no, I didn't say this was caused by FOX.
Signal messenger uses reproducible builds. You can compare the source code to the app that's published to the app store to confirm that they're being honest.

I don't know if any other competitors who do the same. As Signal messages are end-to-end encrypted, Even if their servers were compromised, your messages would still be secure. As they use a rotating key, unlike manually using PGP, even if one of the keys was intercepted, they would not be able to decrypt any of your other messages. Using PGP, if someone steals your private key, all your messages are now vulnerable.

The traditional personal computer market isn't nearly as important as it used to be. However you slice the pie, there's no way you can define the pieces to be 10% Apple and 90% Microsoft with a straight face.
> All goes back to Reagan's repeal of the Fairness Doctrine

Reagan himself was an FBI informant and was involved with blacklisting so-called Communists way back when he was President of the Screen Actors Guild, during the McCarthy era. So any story that says "It all started on such and such a date" is completely arbitrary.

You can talk about Barry Goldwater. The National Review. Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson. There was already a strong conservative movement growing that got Reagan elected in the first place. Not to mention the October surprise conspiracy theory of his 1980 election.

The 1960s, the Vietnam War, the civil rights era, these had a huge impact socially, started political realignments, and caused much internal turmoil in the United States.

The Gingrich "Republican Revolution" occurred in 1994. Hillary Clinton claimed there was a vast right-wing conspiracy in 1995. Government shutdowns. Impeachment. Oklahoma City bombing. All of this occurred before Fox News even went on the air.

Will anyone acknowledge that Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols were radicalized before Fox News existed, not to mention before Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube?
i have to agree. if you spend 4 years telling half the country they are the enemy for supporting trump then don't be surprised when half the country views you as the enemy.
Look at the context of this discussion. The claim was made that all religion is based on misinformation.

I argued that that claim is wrong.

Someone responded saying, "find one true account that religion is based on". I responded asking whether they could find an account that is proven false.

The context here is important--I'm not arguing my belief in religion, or that you must believe in religion. I'm arguing that not all religion is based on misinformation. I brought up my question to point out that his question is irrelevant, and he can't prove anything to be false, therefore he can't prove that it's all misinformation.

If I see a bird fly over my head, then claim to you, "a bird flew over my head", I can't prove it. Neither can you disprove it. That doesn't mean it didn't happen, or that my claim isn't real, or that my claim is misinformation.

~2000 years ago people witnessed Christ die and some claim they saw Him come back to life. They wrote about it. Those letters still exist today. I agree that this information alone is not enough to justify someone changing their life to believe the letters--merely existing doesn't "prove" that what's in them is true. But pretend for a second it really did happen. What evidence/proof do you think you'd find that could prove it?

This is honestly getting watered down a lot though, with people jumping in without reading everything. I don't blame them--I do the same on HN.

If someone wishes to discuss why I personally believe, and what I believe in, that's a different thing altogether that I'm happy to discuss but not here on HN.
I use Push Bullet for that exact purpose
I'm answering the contrived $35k income claim above. That claimant is likely not going to pay much attention to a 150 page document from any source let alone one that goes contrary to his opinion.

Thus one needs a proof short enough to get through that barrier of near instant disbelief.

A very rough sanity check shows:
$263,242bil / 2 / ( 7*10^9 / 100 ) = $1,880,300 ie approx 2million

Obviously this is a highly simplified approximation, of necessity for that audience.

Equally obvious, it is vastly greater than $34k.
>Simply put, our primary goal was to avoid the very same bias that we felt the media had.

I'm not so sure that's what i'd want as a goal. I don't want to live in s a society where there isn't a bias against rape, murder, etc. You have to have biases but ensure they are well founded --based in some kind of set of principles. We don't need to start from the beginning and evolve our line of thought every time we discuss something.

I'm totally okay with someone saying I'm for increasing alcohol taxes because of reasons a, b and c which are based on peer reviewed and internationally accepted studies x y and z. So long as they are open to change were the conclusions to change over time (due to say new studies revealing something different.)
> I'm already using Signal as a secondary messaging service (since someone I know didn't use WhatsApp) so I'll just switch to that

This 100%. So many responses talk about the "network effect", but realistically it only needs that one key person in everyone's phone book who refuses to use WhatsApp in order to move entire swathes of people to install Signal at least as a secondary app. Be that one person!
Why wouldn't they approve it? How is it different from any other acquisitions in the area?
Yes. Google's longest-running messaging service, according to https://killedbygoogle.com/

Also they don't advertise it, but it's actually still running... just no new features, no compatibility with Hangouts/etc. and of course they disabled federation.
Just use something else....
Sure. I'd be interested.
See why Signal is not much better than Whatsapp:
