That goes to the heart of the most frequent cause of trouble between shareholders: badly aligned interests. Even so, if you're looking at the stock as a lottery ticket and the company does take off you're in a good position to make a fair amount of money, you just shouldn't count on that. But if you're going to play you might as well play for stakes that are worth it. Each to his own, I think a big part of the 'compensation' in being part of any start-up is that you get ring side seat on how that whole thing works and you can - if you are not just heads down coding - get some very valuable contacts out of it.

This can turn out to be worth more than either the stock or your salary but that's a long game and one with even less guarantees.

Still, I'm pretty sure that very few people that were on board with one of the bigger SV successes of the last 2 decades are going to complain about their pay-day, whereas for everybody whose company did not make it it hardly matters how much stock they got. And that's really where these founders miss the boat: they should be happy to share a sizable chunk of what is essentially worth nothing. They are essentially already busy with their exits when they should be building a company and that alone is a good reason to avoid those companies.
I've had the privilege of working with the patient described in the podcast. She's unique in any sense of the word.
What would stop a person like this from killing herself if she is truly depressed ?

What stops her from killing herself out of curiosity ?

Would she make a better or worse soldier ?

I wish this woman did an AMA.
Yep I had a $800 bill once because of this.
You seem to be requesting perfection from one side but not from the other.

To keep on the previous example: Pence and Fox News never called anyone "idiot Trumper" or anything and they are being attacked by that crowd.

About climate change: Greta Thunberg has been called all kinds of names without equivalent provocation.

And there's a lot of people willing to engage with climate change deniers in the way you're suggesting they should, but a large part of climate change deniers are not willing to accept that those people are acting in good faith. There's lot of accusations that non-deniers are paid shills and stuff like that.

Again, why does every person on one side has to be perfect, but the other side gets a pass? Even the Republicans can't control the Trump crowd.
Ah, feds against feds. Totally plausible!
Your both sides equivocation ignore the fact that only causes cops support are given this treatment.
This depends greatly on where you will be studying, where you intend to practice, and your matrix of personal and financial dependencies.

Working conditions in medicine are universally poor, frankly. The flexibility during education and training is close to zero. You probably will need to move somewhere else as part of training or work. This can uproot your life and family depending on obligations. Some fields have very prolonged training periods and are very competitive (eg surgical subspecialties). There is a lot of bullshit in medicine, due to heirarchies in large institutions, rigid and nonsensical regulations, issues with billing etc... you have to have the personality to stomach this. Conversely, there is also the fact that when you are in the room with the patient and the door is closed, it is just you trying to help another person, despite everything. This is sacred, and can be intensely rewarding even in dire circumstances, an exercise in mutual gratitude you just won't find elsewhere.

The other thing I would say is that some fields in medicine are probably not something you should spend your whole life doing, at least not full time. It is just too emotionally exhausting, no matter what you do to deal with it. Not saying it is impossible to do it for 40 years, but it is a risk, you definitely sustain some kind of damage. I suspect this is responsible for 2/3rds of the seemingly outrageous negligence/misconduct cases you hear about.
Thinking that Baidu banning photos of the Tiananmen Square protests is not the Chinese administration exercising its power, because the banning itself is done by a private company? Yeah, that would be comedy stuff.

In China as in the U.S., these are not local mom-and-pop stores exercising their rights to free association. These are large tech companies and business ventures that are deeply and inseparably intertwined with the state and the political parties (both of them), based on the granting of reciprocated privileges. They know full well that if they ban the wrong person (or refuse to ban the right person), they face being regulated out of existence the next day: indeed, seeing this threat, they're scrambling to align themselves with the incoming administration. Yes, they had deals with the previous administration too [1].

A good overview, but some bad examples. For 'find', he says:

<I>Combine with grep to find c++ files.

$ find | grep cpp</I>

That has at least two problems:
1. It will match 'cpp' anywhere in the name, such as 'tcpping.py', resulting in false positives.
2. It's inefficient, as there's no need to invoke grep at all. Much better just to use:

$ find . -name "*.cpp"
Bank accounts can't be done without letting the bank know a lot of things about you anyway, and I can imagine a "ping me on changes to resource xyz" extension to handle the second problem.

That said, I do agree with you that this isn't the most... convenient... model.
Fraud is scarcely different than theft in most contexts (moral or legal). Both are acts of non-retaliatory force against another person or persons. Put another way, what difference does it make if someone steals your parked car from a parking lot or pretends to be a valet and drives to Vegas instead?
My argument is "dark patterns bad, don't work on bad stuff", not "dark patterns don't work". Yes, some people will ignore the "bad" part and get rich doing so. That's not the only way to earn a living, though.
I think lots of people have this kind of revelation as they get a bit older. Glad you've found a new outlook that you like. I don't think you need to frame it as a revolution though.
It's not. Rewarding early adopters is not enough to consider something a Ponzi scheme but it's enough to make people who don't know what a Ponzi scheme is to call it one.
As far as I can tell, nearly everyone agrees that breaking the law when it is unjust is a good idea, in at least some cases. In the U.S., the illegal civil-rights marches and sit-ins now enjoy nearly universal praise (including quite a few retroactive converts), and the Boston Tea Party is even taught to schoolchildren in a positive light.

The only real disagreement seems to be over what injustices are serious enough to warrant such actions, not over the principle. And I mean, trashing someone's ship while disguised as a Native American, in order to protest an import tax, doesn't exactly set a high bar.
That sounds a bit like Burst Tries / burstsort.

Falsehoods users believe about my programs/service.

1) A simple, ascii A-Za-z0-9_ identifier unique to program/service is not required to use my program/service.

1a) My program/service cares deeply about your real world name and all it's nuances and variations. It requires full and complete understanding of your name rather than just a simple authentication mechanism.

2) My program/service will correctly handle the worlds naming conventions past, present, and future to the exclusion of other features / actually shipping some day.

3) Instead of following 80/20 "rule", my program/service will names 100% perfect!

4) My program/service will cater to all languages/cultures/subcultures/niches past, present, and future rather than any sort of target audience.
This doesn't seem to advocate for open source, so much as for open standards. The problem he observes with MegaCorp Office 2010, as he transparently terms it, is not that it's difficult for the general public to add features or fix bugs. The problem is that it's nearly impossible to compete with due to network effects, and that problem would be alleviated by an open standard.
This is not correct, on a few fronts. It _is_ possible to secure data with just Javascript (with care), and "host proof" describes a design philosophy that has real meaning - Google the term, and look at excellent commercial projects like Clipperz (who use "zero knowledge" as a synonym for "host proof"). You can also read this post I wrote when I took my first skeptical look at the idea. It discusses how and why the host-proof idea could work, and finds some flaws in Clipperz and PassPack, the two most prominent "host-proof" commercial apps:

http://corte.si/posts/security/hostproof.html

I should note that Clipperz has now addressed all the points I raised in my post.

The "host-proof" idea has been around for a while, but is really just in its infancy. There's a lot of work to be done, but the idea is both important and promising.
True. Or that generally they're not as up to snuff on the latest and greatest, which tends to be the bread and butter of startups.

But all generalizations are still false.

Another "who's hiring" thread, another shameless plug: please, if you are posting here about your startup, or if you have a job listing, please take a look at http://job4dev.com/jobs/new. It's completely free to create a listing, and your company gets a page much like crunchbase, but focused on information relevant for job seekers.

If you are looking for jobs, you can browse at http://job4dev.com/jobs. You can filter listings by position, by tags, look for contract jobs only, telecommuting, etc. We just started scraping some of the most interesting job boards out there (e.g: 37signals, Stackoverflow, Ars Jobs), so we have a good number of jobs too.

We are doing a good job at making information easily available. What we need now is to have more users (job seekers as well as job recruiters) checking the website.

(EDIT: downmodders, could you please explain what you have against me talking about a website that is completely related to the thread?)

(EDIT 2: Appsaurus just put their listings over there. http://job4dev.com/company/hello-chair-inc. Thanks, guys!)
Better to just use your own domain with a (free) bit.ly/pro/ account
Maybe I was being overly sensitive. I do think you could've got your point across as easily without naming names though, or scrubbing the email to protect the "innocent".

Since you did name names, I doubt any amount of compliments would avoid leaving a bad taste.

As far as the message, maybe I'm just in a funny mood, but it strikes me as a great balance, and while I mentally get less excited about a project whenever I see "MySQL", it is probably about the nicest I've seen.

In an attempt to be on topic though: If we're going to critique mailers like this, targeting the ones with the extensive Qualifications/Requirements list from recruiters to be allowed to work with their client's run-of-the-mill app seems fair enough.

Here's one of my recent ones:

Qualified candidates will possess the following skills and experience:

* A proven background in Ruby on Rails design and development
* Expertise in MVC architecture and design
* Experience in MySQL RDBMS
* Test Driven and Agile Development experience
* If you have experience with other languages (e.g. PHP, Python, Objective-C), frameworks, multimedia, etc. all the better.</quote>

Ok, so Rails+MySQL is about as vanilla as it gets in my book. MVC architecture and design though? Seriously, you can count the number of Rails developers who've put any thought whatsoever into that on one hand. In Rails it just "is". You don't think about it. Compare to http://codebetter.com/. Years after I left .NET and stopped following the blog yet these guys are still talking about fundamentals of OOAD in-depth, and exploring testability with an output from just this one multi-blog that probably equals every Ruby blogger ever. ;-) I mean, if you rule out the blogging about how you should use the latest vegetable themed testing framework that business people are going to use to drive requirements and change the world anyways.

When I see "Agile Development" in a job pitch I automatically think "cowboys without a plan" these days. If you have flexible scope and/or deadlines driven by client collaboration and/or goal-oriented operations, make sure that's clear if you're going to mention the "A"-word. Without expanding on your process using the "Agile" phrase just comes off as shifting responsibility to developers to get it right without due-diligence from the business side. And when it's not right, or the requirements or goals are not well understood, it's typically going to be the Developer making up the difference by putting in extra hours to compensate for the lack of planning, with no realistic expectation of renumeration for his/her time.

And again, I probably should know more about MySQL. I never did master it. After making the switch to PostgreSQL I managed to drastically reduce the effort required to get complex queries to perform as I'd expect a modern RDBMS should (my previous experience being with MSSQL, which other than portability issues is really an outstanding product in my book, really the only MS product I'm a fan of) and didn't look back. That's my own hangup based on my own personal experience though I suppose. It's probably not fair to mark down a mental demerit for it. I do anyways. ;-)
Very cool. Looking forward to going through it tomorrow.
There are really two options:
a) be clear & honest & persistent about your vision for how people should interact with your startup - independent of technology constraints.
b) pay a UX/UI designer for that vision. My company charges a single flat fee for an initial whiteboard workshop on clarifying and identifying a projects UX. I'm sure many other UX firms do as well.
Except this isn't a sport? You don't actually do any exercise riding this thing.
Gym and meditation for me.
Not cool. Please don't do this here.
Google doesn't solely use stack ranking. Most of the grading is done on the OKR system with peer feedback.
I sold a domain name which I bought for myself and _never_ used, at a similar price. All depends how do YOU want this domain - my buyer really WANTED my domain name. Don't be afraid to make a counter-offer and hear what seller has to say though: my initial price was higher and buyer's counter was quite reasonable.
it can tell the GPS where to look in the sky for satellites. As it is, the gps has to scan the entire sky

Your entire mental model of how GPS works is wrong.
I have no idea what industry you're talking about and therefore have no insight into the revenue potential of this domain name, but it seems conceivable that buying this domain name could save you $10,000 of effort that you' otherwise have to do. Can you or would you prefer to start from scratch and put that perhaps ten thousand dollars worth of effort in yourself?

Your answer to that question will get you well down the path of determining whether this domain name is worth the money.
I'd say learn Google App Engine's webapp framework.

ROR is very good at consumer facing apps, but there is a bit too much there there to learn quickly, or to use for other purposes (iPhone app backends, etc) for people new to the platform.

Either will serve you well once you master them, and I'd learn both eventually.
Haven't worked with Riegl, but I can tell you that Velodyne isn't even close. Even their official datasheets state range error of 5 cm; reality is much worse.
here's the tool I used to appraise ceojobs.com, a domain i bought a couple of years ago for 5 figures. simply substitute your domain name for ceojobs.com ... http://appraise.epik.com/ceojobs.com
I've found that open-sourced websites are less helpful to me, as a developer interested in a project. They're just so complicated- there's a lot of institutional knowledge involved in just navigating the project, much less going into the code and learning from it (or using part of it). It works great in the case of "oh, I'm a user and there's a typo or bug here, let me fix it for you".

Rather than open source the entire website, there's a number of companies that open source very specific components of their much larger website. By focusing in on a very specific use case, it's easier to 1) comprehend, as a newcomer, and 2) contribute back to. You're also forced to write the library internally differently since you know it'll be open source and will need to stand on its own (so no hackish, dirty implementations on your own site!) In many cases, this "forced abstraction" makes for much better code for yourself.

I really like the latter approach. It's what GitHub does with Grit or Resque, or Shopify does with active_merchant, or Intridea does with OmniAuth. But note that releasing specific components doesn't prevent you from releasing your whole site as open source, either... you can certainly do both (which may be the best of both worlds!)
You created a new account just to share with us that you congregate with irresponsible people? You are aware that the world spans far wider than the circle of people you know, right? And that they're not representative of the working class of this country, right?
An open-source website for creators that allows them to follow and interact with each other's personal sites. The theory being that it can be useful to build tools that allow people to create their own ad-hoc social "networks" instead of building yet another central platform.

I envision it like this: You log into your own domain to post content, this is shared with your followers (and available to anonymous visitors), then from your site's dashboard you can see and interact with the latest posts on your peer's websites. The hopeful result being distributed networks of creators. Instead of policies coming from one company in one country, creator's sites would be governed by their host in their preferred locale.

I've been thinking about this for a while and just started working in earnest this weekend. I've been spitballing it among my artist-friend circles with positive feedback. It does require commitment to invest the time and money to setup their own website, though I suppose it's possible for different services to exist that automate and federate hosting for them. Personally I've maintained my own gallery for years and I practice POSSE[1] but there's always that nagging reminder that the "elsewhere" has different motivations than just sharing my content.

Expect he is wrong and spread dangerously false information and pushed people toward danger. And you are also doing it here as well. His "correctness" is reflected in the number of infected people in the US, which is over 27000 now. Japan, despite having a head start and having a far higher population density, is at 1050. Let these numbers sink for a minute, and ask yourself what you could be doing better.

In Japan, people use masks to protect the community, which includes themselves as well as people around them.
Honestly, I think the worst part is feeling like you can't go outside.

I voluntarily go days (sometimes more than a week) without leaving the house because I honestly like being at home (books, video games, wife and kids, etc). I don't feel like U need as much social stimulation as others.

My wife is pretty much the same way, but she gets really down when she cannot leave the house (e.g. when she has a newborn and I'm at work). Just having the ability to leave, even if she doesn't take advantage of it, is enough for her.

I wonder whether being at home for days on end is the problem, or just the feeling that you can't or shouldn't leave the house? If it's the latter, we could probably recommend safe activities instead of focusing on banning/discouraging unsafe ones.

How are the stock charts derived? Is this 1 day, 1 week, 1 year, ... chart?
Am I the only one who finds the use of the phrase "real world" for the world of microcontroller programming jarring? It is used throughout the article.

e.g:- "rationals are never used in the real world, and floating-point is quite rare"

To the author's credit he does define the use of this term "On the other hand, all of these languages are too big to be used in the real world (micro-controllers), which is the realm where Forth and C remain popular."

but I still found it a bit jarring.

"It is reasonable to predict that Factor will largely phase out Forth in the world of desktop programming, but that Forth and C will continue to be predominant in the real
world."

I understand that English is probably not the author's first language, (it isn't mine either), but if he is reading this, replacing "real world" with "microcontroller world" might be an easy change to make.
It's not that the PFS is known to be broken, it's that it's actually still very rarely used (1)

The present is problematic enough, we don't even need to hypothesize on the future breakages.

1) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forward_secrecy

"As of December 2014, 20.0% of TLS-enabled websites are configured to use cipher suites that provide forward secrecy to web browsers."

IPSEC is also often configured with the disabled PFS, even if the RFC is from 1998 ( http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2412 )
