"By defining some qualities that you would like to nurture in your child, and implementing strategies to help them develop, you would be acting as a supportive participant in their development."

I think that is exactly what I seek to do. The goals are examples, and very loose. As I said before, I would not be disappointed with my child for not reaching them.

And I have found the "you're just writing your own framework" point needlessly repeated over and over, despite having never run into it in practice. Choosing a large framework does not insulate you from the concerns of the grandparent. You still must come up with a style guide, and a way of using the tools. The win is not obvious, imo.

It's worth noting that the first ingredient, maltodextrin, is only "not a sugar" in the technical sense. Sure, it is a weakly bonded polysaccharide and not a mono or disaccharide (the FDA's definition of what to call sugar on your label), but it is absorbed by the body at the same rate as pure glucose. I think this is pretty deceptive for the non-nutrition geek crowd.
A little research reveals A) people are very emotional about wolf classification and B) some argue the 24 subspecies of Gray Wolf should be consolidated: http://howlcolorado.org/2010/04/22/detangling-the-subspecies... It's certainly not comparable to black bears vs. grizzly bears.

I expect someone who'd use this kind of service on a regular basis would have TSA Precheck/CLEAR and priority boarding/!coach seats, possibly reducing a significant amount of waiting before the flight. This isn't just about reducing the time spent in traffic either, nor does it say anything about the possibility of something similar for travel needs on the other end. And well, flights tend to be unavoidable or the fastest way possible to go somewhere, so...

That's really cool, thanks for sharing! I got to go to Dubai this summer and got a good feel for the city. While I believe the city of Dubai is very beautiful, it is nevertheless missing a crucial element...nature. Every day is a battle against the elements. The city only exists to serve business people and the local Emiratis who thrive on oil money and the newly established tourism industry. On an environmental level, it is a disaster. Building a city on such an inhospitable area certainly takes a toll on the environment...it is a city that should not exist, barring oil money.
>As I've argued elsewhere, obscuring your login service via non-standard ports or even a requirement to try several ports in sequence really only buys you security equivalent to lengthening your password by two characters per port. After all, TCP and UDP port numbers are limited to 65536 distinct values, within the scope of a 16-bit value. Moving your service to a non-standard port means that the would-be intruder has to guess a two-byte value. Introducing a sequence of ports buys you the added obscurity of two bytes per port.

It needs to be pointed out that it is actually worse than that. Guessing a password is O(2^n) on the length of the password. Making the attacker guess a random m bit value before starting to guess passwords is O(2^m + 2^n). To put numbers behind this, a password with 32 bits of entropy has ~4 billion possible combinations, 16 bits of random port + 32 bits of password has 65536 + ~4 billion possible combinations (also known as ~4 billion), while a 34 bit password would have ~16 billion possible combinations.

No. Get a decent OS.
Yikes those are bad. As a non-user interested in it, I must confess that seeing those issues (especially the 2nd one) makes me not want to use it!

I do get that it is a hard problem, but I would then recommend they not have an option for "real" if they can't get it right. Users will expect it to work (unless the docs point out it is unreliable).
Ahh yes, please go on and defend a billion-dollar company who has no reason to continue letting ad-blockers exist. If you are for taking away APIs that uBlock Origin needs to operate, you are on the wrong side of history and should re-evaluate your position. The lead dev of uBlock Origin can be trusted so much more than Google. You are the one spreading FUD here by claiming that the new API is so much better than the old one.

Chrome is a shitty browser. Google is a shitty company. Stop defending shit.

Why would you compare quarterly values of seed money to a cumulative total (QE) and expect a correlation? They are completely different series. Try doing a running total for the seed money and the graph will look different. The first and third graphs don't make sense for this reason.

The second graph is better, and you can see there is some correlation. Did you test for lags, or do you assume that QE money would flow instantly into the coffers of institutional investors?

I applaud your effort, but there is more to this analysis than overlaying two graphs. You need to understand the data.
This is exactly the fix I would apply if I had this, but you would think they'd make it so that you had to hold the button down for more than a quick key press to put it to sleep. Seems like that would be a problem that would come up in testing.
No, not at all. Zero in fact. It had to move. If it didn't have to move it wouldn't be.
Good article, but the "would of" ruined it for me. Did you not proof read it even once to let such a horror through?
I just wonder, relatively, how big is the part of the ES6/7 driving community which were the people who hated on CoffeeScript because it required a compilation step (and now they love BabelJS). There will be things which you will always hate about JavaScript, visible, on the surface, and that will never go away. Compiled-to-js languages can hide these. This has been the best part of CoffeeScript, where it really shined, and this will carry over future compiled-to-js languages (PureScript, Elm etc.).

Unless it turns out that JS+Flow is actually the best balance between flexibility and safety and the world will reach "singularity".
That's definitely shorter, but I would hope that isn't considered the most shining example of non-obfuscated code. :)

(For code golf, though, it's just fine.)
Compared to the air it doesn't get better performance or battery life. On performance the Air performs a bit better in most charts, and on battery the air is better for light stuff and the dell better for heavier stuff (which might be because the Air has a 1.4 ghz processor, versus the 0.8 ghz on the Asus leading to more work being done). As for the port, Air ports are great.

Beyond that though the Asus is a great device and for anyone who is OS-agnostic, I'd definitely recommend the Asus over both the Air or without hesitation. It's indeed a real winner.

A decade or so of superior Macbooks seems to have ended with this ASUS and the Dell XPS 2015, they're really great. I don't see the new Macbook or the Air competing either on specs, price, build quality. The Macs still ahve great touchpads and the OS is preferred by some, but it's hard for that to be the only thing going for you.
Correct, this is what I meant.

Additionally, I find it more efficient to apply pressure to move the cursor accross the screen rather than the "put fingers down, rub, fingers up, move through the air" loop!

Please don't do this here. The idea of HN is curious conversation, not flamewar. Yes, that's hard in the current climate. But the site guidelines cover this—see https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html, and in particular:

"Comments should get more thoughtful and substantive, not less, as a topic gets more divisive."

"Eschew flamebait."
I have been an email administrator for an ISP and a University, and I have been active in many spam related forums/mailing lists for many years now, and I completely disagree.

Blacklists catch far more spam than bayes, are far easier to administer and far less resource intensive. Personally, I try to deploy both, with blacklists first in line, then bayes to catch some stuff that the blacklists miss.

"Sender authentication" is a vague term. If you mean verification of the sender address via various DNS lookups, then yes, that's quite useful, but still nowhere near as useful as blacklists.

This is how I see people setting up their spam filters in the industry. It might not be idealistic, but it is effective and wide spread.
This is a great example of how a politician should be. He gives good reasons for his stances, and is clear about them. He doesn't lean on catchphrases and slogans, and instead points to the advantages he sees in his stance, along with the advantages and disadvantages of the opposition view. Specific stances on difficult and controversial issues, in full view of the complications and complexity. I'm impressed, and wish the US had any such politicians.

Or, as most often happens, it could make no specific determination, which would mean that Suspicious Activity Report N03821 would sit in limbo for as long as five years, during which time many other pieces of information about the man photographing a boat on a Sunday morning could be added to his file: employment, financial and residential histories; multiple phone numbers; audio files; video from the dashboard-mounted camera in the police cruiser at the harbor where he took pictures; and anything else in government or commercial databases "that adds value," as the FBI agent in charge of the database described it.

The most terrifying part of that is "commercial databases"

I've got immense respect for VLC. Not only because it shows how a relatively small core team can shoulder a large software project but also because they've never compromised on doing any shady business to make a quick buck.
> Sure, VLC is probably not always the best for your usecase

VLC is both consistent and almost always the best media player for the platform. I especially love your Android UI/UX.

It has been my go-to player for ~14 years now, installed it on my high school desktop windows, my university linux and now work MBP and personal Android never disappointed me. Thanks for keeping up the quality work, I give you as example of good quality open-source project when the topic comes up.

Do you have any "need" for a fullstack/infra kind of person? Or any place we can see what know-how needs you have at the moment?

Would love to get involved with my limited capacity.

Also thanks for staying open source and privacy conscious.
Agreed. Does Google and Facebook "signing" it mean they agree to abide buy the plan? If not, signing it means nothing.

If so, then either they are lying, or the plan imposes so few restrictions that it is worthless.

Yeah, MIPS was nice with allowing custom instructions to be added to their cores, but with the relatively recent Arm licensing change for Armv8-M that allows something similar I wonder if more will just switch to Arm.

There exist white LEDs that instead use a deep violet emitter which they're able to much more effectively filter out, eliminating the high frequency spike.

Good luck finding them in products though.
Besides using VLC to watch my video collection, and listen to albums, I use this program daily to organize and stream a plethora of internet radio stations. It's almost always running. It's an incredibly useful creation, and very much appreciated. Merci beaucoup!
I'm not sure that usenet 2.0 is even possible, just merely due to scale, although it would be nice if it did.

I was very active on usenet back in the early to mid 1990s and I would say that it was an enormously valuable experience. I interacted with a lot of smart people, I got to explore a lot of exciting areas of interest, and I spent a lot of time improving my writing abilities. It makes me sad to think that there are lots of people who well never benefit from that experience. At their best HN and parts of reddit can be excellent, but there's still a lot that they're missing.
"These people will be given autonomy & food sovereignty."

You're kidding, right? Small-scale peasant farmers have historically been the most downtrodden and oppressed group. Serfdom or outright slavery is the norm.

"There is historical evidence that monoculture, petrol farming does not work."

No, there is historical evidence that it does work. China hasn't had a major famine in close to fifty years, and India hasn't had one since the 1940s.

Yes, there are still hungry people there, but you don't see the kind of mass die-offs that were common under the "natural farming techniques".

"The only "disadvantage" is more people will be required to grow food."

Cool. You get to go first.
Those are database records. Social connections are actual interactions with other people.
The appeal is the simplicity. And certainly there are users who would like a decently formatted HTML page without signing up; hence the whole "imgur for websites" approach.
Part of me thinks this is a bit sleazy. He knows how recognizable the name "Wozniak" is, and doubly so if he's going to be running a tech blog and posting about Aplle related things. Would gregwozniak.ca or gwozniak.ca been that much worse? It would be infinitely less confusing and link-baity.
Out of curiosity, how do you suppose that spreadsheet was created?

How would one go about finding the sources en masse from a set of articles? What tools would be used?
> "Draw a red circle" is enough to get a red circle.

Yes, but once you have to say "Draw a circle in this shade of red, give it a black border this thick, make it this big and put it at these coordinates" things are starting to get unwieldy. After a few different circles I'd probably start longing for draw_circle(fill_colour, radius, (x,y,z), border_colour, border_width).

Edit: Added function arguments to make the comparison less biased.
My advice would be:

Cache everything you can, especially expensive code sections.

Move everything that doesn't have to update immediately to cron jobs.

Whenever you can, load information on demand.

Try to think before-hand about the nature of your app, specifically, is it write heavy, read heavy or code heavy? Map out a scenario of what you need to scale first, and what isn't as important to scale, for example, would you need more app servers or db servers?

Load balance if at all possible.
Pluggable schedulers have been proposed, implemented, and shot down by Linus several times in the past. IANAKH, but Linus's argument seems to basically boil down to this: for a monolithic kernel, delegating something as central as task scheduling to pluggable modules is a pretty big hit in terms of latency and complexity vs. just putting the best, most tightly-tuned scheduler you can smack dab in the heart of the beast.

The first rule in negotiation is to get him to give you a price. From here you have the upper hand in knowing what his thought process is. By you providing him an offer price you are doing one of two things. You are either letting him know your "minimum", or what you think it is worth personally, or you are letting him know your "maximum". Either way you are hosed here. If you let him know your "minimum" he knows he has room to negotiate up. If you let him know your "maximum", you are opening yourself up to paying way more than what you could have potentially purchased it for. By getting him to concede a price you gain this upper hand. If you believe that the price is to high, you should work to prove him wrong. If you believe it is a steal, then jump on the deal.

Now the question is how to determine if his price is "realistic". There are several factors at play here. First he may see you approaching him about the domain as a chance to make "big" money. His understanding of the market may be minimal and he may have read new stories of people paying top dollar for domains. He may perceive your approaching him as a chance to make his cash. Knowing what his price range is a step for assessing this. Proving exact traffic will be difficult, but you can guesstimate the amount it may potentially receive.

1) Is the domain name currently ranked in Google in the top 10 or 20? If it is in the top 10 it has instant appeal for you and the price just went up. Top 20 still getting a good price, but not as much as in the top 10.
2) Is he monetizing the site currently in any way? If so, you should ask him to provide you with documentation or some kind proof on how much he is making from it. This may be difficult and he may be reluctant to show you. Comes down to power of persuasion here.
3) Is the domain something "catchy" or a high-demand domain name (i.e. 3 letter .com)?
4) If you find yourself making no headway or want an extra negotiating tactic you can always have the domain "appraised" by an independent 3rd party (yes there are companies that do this, I just can't think of their names right now). Just Google domain appraisers or I am sure someone will jump in here and fill in the blanks. You can sell this as a benefit to him as he will now have an outside opinion on the value of his domain. The problem with this method is that you and him may be thinking the domain is worth $100, but the appraiser comes in and says it is worth $1000. Now he is going to want a $1000 when you could have had it for $100. This is where knowing his price thought is beneficial.
5) Put your offer out there. Walk away if necessary if you don't feel him budging. Give him a few days and come back to him. Let his emotions (good and bad) wear down over those days. If this is the first time someone has approached him regarding the domain he may be tempted for a big offer at first, but after a couple days of sitting on his brain you may get a more realistic response.

As for terms, just make sure that all control and ownership of the domain is transferred to you. You could work with an escrow company or third-party for this.
Where is the red circle drawn? How large is it? What shade of red? How are those arbitrary values chosen, and how do I choose others?

The inherent problem with NLP is that human languages are imprecise and ambiguous. For an example of the problems with NLP, try using Wolfram Alpha. While it returns useful results for many queries, as soon as you start off the beaten path it can become an exercise in frustration as you try to figure out exactly which format of words it will accept, especially as I know the mathematica command that would accomplish the desired goal (or can look it up quickly).

Obviously Alpha isn't the end-game of NLP and improvements can be made to accept more constructions. But ultimately, you're going to have to restrict yourself to a subset of your natural language's syntax, grammar and vocabulary, and I believe that learning what that subset is is far more difficult and frustrating than just learning a programming language.

Furthermore, merely knowing a NL programming language isn't enough to be a programmer--you still need to learn how to think logically and algorithmically, which seems to be the hard part for people new to programming.
I would but I can't quite figure out GHC's build process.
Not much. I've seen advisor equity in the .1-.25% range. Advisors aren't founders, nor are they taking any risk (as a director would). The important part is to vest it.

They are great if you can build a community of regular posters. A lot of the financial bloggers have great comments, sometimes more valuable than the post itself. Check out http://www.nakedcapitalism.com.

I think that is the reason that tech crunch and MSNBC get no valuable comments, and blogs like the one above get great comments.
It's nice to see the nod to Y-Combinator and the realization that many businesses can be started with much less money today. But there is also another point to realize. Have you noticed how large the barriers to entry are in some industries? Could anyone today really start a bank, an oil company, a car company, etc.?

Some markets (especially in technology) are opening with very low barriers to entry. But some markets are more closed than ever.
If you link to your blog or at least one interesting post, you might get some comments from HN right now.
True, I'm not as interested in the specific implementation in the article vs. some of the other established implementations.
