You forgot about context of my comment.
I used "100% honesty" in the sense of "never lie and AND be open".
Please re-read original context:
"If you are ever asked an interview question which you've already answered in a previous interview, you should tell the interviewer immediately."

"Not talking about your past interview experience" has about the level of openness as "not talking about your corporate experience".
Well, it's pretty clear that Stanza (from my first link) got in hot water with Apple given they pulled the feature at Apple's behest.

As for the address book thing, I can't name any specifics as I don't follow iOS overly closely; I just know it's a hack I've seen mentioned enough times that it seems to be fairly common knowledge that it can be done, just with the caveat that it's also against the rules.
I suspect this also the same for men. In general people don't actually know what they want.
If Target could have cut hours, and maintained revenue, they would have done that anyways.

They haven't, though, and they won't.
They would only control the assignment of TLDs, whereas all the stuff that's actually interesting from a censorship perspective happens on much lower levels than that.

For example, ITU also controls country code assignment for phone numbers. Does that translate to any meaningful capacity to censor? So far as I know, the only practical restriction that comes out of it is that unrecognized states don't get one assigned, but that's also generally true with TLDs.
You can use modern scripting languages such as Python, Ruby and friends. They will never go out of fashion if you want to put together a pipeline (also known as workflow or script :-).
It means they can’t get one for free, not that they can’t get one at all. IPv4 addresses are trading for around 20/each when bought in blocks of 256. They won’t be prohibitively expensive for any serious hosting provider for the foreseeable future.

For hobby projects hosted on a Raspberry Pi in someone’s bedroom, I can imagine a static IPv4 being prohibitively expensive, but that’s about it.
For those considering running their own mail server (like me), perhaps a more pertinent dataset is the list of hosters that seem to work without problem (not spam blocked) and those that have proven problematic. If anyone could chime in it would be much appreciated.
I'm not 100% convinced by the 5115 vs 4116, but that will depend on the workload. The case is clear for the 6126, but "For just a few hundred more dollars" is a bit dishonest; you are talking about $1000 (for the 4116) vs $1770 (for the 6126). Now IF you are going to do AVX2/AVX512 like crazy and have the money, sure, go for it. But it is not a case of "oh but for just a little bit more, I've got way much better". And that's even considering other costs. Cause you can use that reasoning for all components, so in the end does ×1.7 really not matter? Not so sure... Hey even $770 vs. amortization through increased performance can be difficult to reach sometimes - that's also very workload / business model dependent.

Also if you actually needs tons of processors, availability might be an issue.

Now in the end, I'm not familiar enough with Cloudfare needs and I know that pretty much anybody can make mistakes, so it is possible that they should have gone with something like the 6126 instead of 4116. But then the 8124? hm, less probable.
You have an extremely warped understanding of what is actually going on and how things work. Non linear utilization of more cores is a matter of software and thermals.
Sure, but 90% of the time, I and most people I know don't do very sophisticated searches. I'm actually mostly using google as a billion dollar search engine for wikipedia / stackoverflow / arch wiki / bbc / nyt / ft / whatever big site there is in a given domain. Because these sites happen to have 90% of what i'm looking for. For the rest, we all have our own little forums we follow: fb, hn, email etc.

So instead of trying to beat google on full web searches, the trick might actually be to index all 100 best ranking websites according to some metric (alexa rank for instance) and do it better than google. Then, maybe you can grab over 50% of the search traffic. For broader queries (in the search knowledge graph sense), in this scenario, people would fallback to google.
Why my iPad corrected "alone" to "along" twice, I'll never know.
First, "I did X, then Y increased, then I did X again right before Z, which clearly increases Y, happened, and Y increased again!" is not empirical evidence, and many of Marco's conclusions were very dependent on (I think unreasonable) assumptions that were based on his gut feelings.

More importantly, the argument of "he'd lose customers if he removed the free app" is about long-term, future effects. I perceive that Matt is trying to say that, say 1 year from now, the paid Instapaper app will have fewer customers if there is no free app in that interval than it would have if the free app had existed in that interval. Of course, this is fundamentally impossible to test, and is based on gut feelings, but it was not disproven by any "empirical evidence" presented by Marco. But it's no more unreasonable for any of us to have a gut feeling in this respect. Personally, I believe a lot of Marco's rationale, and do think that he's better off now without a free app, but he certainly did not prove this conclusion.
why there's no menu link for this?
The latest version of the iOS app has search. Pull down when in a list of articles, and a search bar comes up.
Which is why the US is spiraling down the toilet while Silicon Valley is doing better than ever.
Yes since all the SMS'ing is done through your phone.
That section does not address the likeliness of Instapaper having gained a critical mass of users and people knowing about its existence before being able to pull the free version.

There was already a 'web only' service before there was a web app and together with the free version that has resulted in a lot of people 'knowing about it'. Once you reach critical mass, further sales can result from word-of-mouth advertisements and 'having heard of it once'.

We would have to do a verification experiment: go back 18 months in the past and pull the free version from the appstore. There is not a doubt in my mind that that would have turned out bad for Marco.
i had somewhat the opposite problem: my site was showing up on yahoo's search with a weird title, something i've never had as my title and certainly not anywhere in my html.

i emailed them and they replied saying, "The title and description listed in the Yahoo! Search results can come
from many different places, only one of which is the actual metadata in the page itself. The title and description can also come from descriptions on other websites which link to yours or directory services such as the Yahoo! Directory or other third party directory services."

i had to add "noodp, noydir" to the meta robots tag on my site to prevent this from happening.
i think frommer did a great job analyzing the situation. my guess is there were too many question marks surrounding the future of the company.

for all we know, they could have been at the core of our entire social experience. on the flipside, they may have never found a sustainable model once the hype cycle died down.

kudos to tom conrad for padding his track record...
There's two pieces of text relevant: the "extended" description that introduces the site to people who don't already know it (such as search-engine users), and the "short" description that has the site's actual branding for people who are already familiar with it.

In an ideal world, the <title> element would contain the short description, for bookmarking purposes, while the OpenSearch metadata would contain the extended description for search engines. It's kind of unfortunate that it's the opposite way around.
awesome, never knew about the site. thanks for posting.
Seattle's looking dicey for viewing, unfortunately.
I haven't read about the deal, but I'd imagine EA also got rights to the game for other platforms, and that that is the primary value here. For app store stuff it's probably more a case of free advertising.
Where does it make all this money on? The article just mentions that they make Photoshop, Acrobat and Flash..and the Adobe press release doesn't provide any additional information.
Wow great. I dreamed of an AI platform based on LuaJIT a few years ago. Torch and FB's deep-learning module sound amazing!
Pixie https://github.com/pixie-lang/pixie looks like it should address that nicely.
I recommend taking a look at Pixie https://github.com/pixie-lang/pixie
I think you'd generally want the host not to do write caching anyway unless you can afford to corrupt VM disks in case of host power failure.

I suppose a hardware battery-backed write cache might still be safe for live migrations.
for me, those things completely take away the spontaneity of the selfie.

Winston Wolfe arriving in an NSX. Gotcha.
Yes, many Ubuntu packages even come directly from Debian as the Ubuntu upstream. So building Ubuntu packages is very similar. In fact the preferred route is to get the package included in Debian first, and then Ubuntu will just pick it up as a downstream (some packages do go directly into Ubuntu for various reasons).

Hello, I'm interested in joining a creative team or doing freelance work. This is just something I enjoy doing.

I've been a web developer for ten years, but now I'm mostly frontend focused on making creative, hallucinogenic experiences.

My most recent works, which are still unfinished:

- https://plinks.deno.dev/composition-flor

- https://plinks.deno.dev/composition-blends

- https://plinks.deno.dev/composition-gallery

- https://plinks.deno.dev/composition-3d

Always up for a conversation.

DNF was a synonym for vaporware. I even always used DNF to explain to people what vaporware is. What now?
Absolutely. But small 2D games are totally within reach.
I'm right there with you man. That was me, too. My first computer experience was Adventure, and I basically made text adventures for the first few years I was programming.

That said, Pong in Shoes is 50 lines. It's pretty simple, and gives you an actual game. I wrote the basics of a SNS era RPG, and it was around 300 or so. I don't think this is a bad thing.
I'm possibly wrong, but for me, Merry Christmas has a direct association with buying, sales, or e-mails about a sale etc., while happy holidays doesn't conjure up the same meaning, and hence a higher probability of me opening an e-mail?

Maybe fewer percentage of the people even opened the e-mail and the click-through percentage of the people that actually opened the e-mail was the same?
Google can't exist outside of the power company.

I doubt very much that Google doesn't generate at least some of their own power.

I'm quite confident that they can exist outside of any single power company.

Does the analogy hold after this premise is eliminated?
A few candidate papers pop up in this search:

Sorry, but it's not a cancer vaccine it's a HPV vaccine that helps prevent the cause of cancer. Furthermore, this is a US only issue because it can cost someone almost $400 for the treatment. Look elsewhere before claiming its ignored and not a US-centric issue of lack of preventative care.
On the other hand, on the Apple ][ you could code a lo-res Breakout in just a few lines of Basic -- a dozen? (From a dim memory of Wozniak's article in Byte -- he had a couple screenshots with the code in the lower third of the 40-column screen and the game running above.)

Python's a far better language, yes, but I haven't seen a game library quite so low-threshold.
Perfect. We would love to talk to you about what you would find useful for you on the iOS projects. We have a bunch of projects for iOS but are in the process of refining them. I would be super happy if you emailed me at alif@zyring.com

BTW, the person who is defining the iOS projects is one of the devs on Microsoft Office for iOS and Mac (which ironically is the most complex app for ios).
This is Brooklyn we're talking about. It's Hail Seitan!
CLIP is quite a new model published by OpenAI in January. Their work is novel and pushed the state-of-the-art in this area by a lot. I'm sure that Google is also working on similar applications.

And I think they already have something similar. Recently, I've seen search results on Google that point you to a specific time of a YouTube video...
Can someone explain to me how Int[0,∞](t^{n+1} x^n e^{-tx} dx) = Int[0,∞](x^n e^{-x} dx)? That is, the last two equations of section 1.
Define “highest-quality.” Is it publishing in the most prestigious journals? Obtaining the most prestigious grants? See what I did there?

Ground-breaking research often doesn’t qualify for either because it’s too new and scientists on those committees don’t understand it.
Is this actually the AirPods?

Many people get tinnitus. Many people have AirPods. Could this be correlation not causation?

Does anyone more knowledgeable know the details of how AirPods (or similar) could cause tinnitus?
Gary Taubes and many others were crucified for realizing this 10 years ago.
I'm looking forward to replies from dannygrannick and david_l_lin if they are a "covered entity" under HIPAA, because that was the question asked, and hasn't been answered yet.
I think the rational solution is to move to a 6-hour workday. You can argue that then people will still spend 2 hours not working, but I think that's not most people's experience.

8 hours doesn't make sense for knowledge workers.

Even if you're in a position like manufacturing or retail, the continued year over year productivity growth since the 8 hour workday became norm should mean that you can enjoy a higher standard of living while working 25% less time. Of course this is not true as workers' compensation has nothing to do with the surplus value extracted from their labor (a fact which works against you if you actually have to be accountable for your work; OTOH if you spend most of the work day goofing off on the Internet or being an incompetent manager, it really works in your favor).
With Google Chrome and other browsers reading PDFs directly inside the browser, there isn't much point for scribd as an embedded reader.
c2 was such an amazing community!
Thanks for the tip. I assumed we’d have to manually add the scheme to the url.
I'll leave the professor's side out of it, as you've covered it adequately, but on the student's side, even if they did think they were just getting a practice test or study guide, it became cheating the moment they realized it and failed to inform the professor that they had already seen the test.
In the countries held up as examples for nationalization -- UK, France, Canada -- aren't almost all providers now government employees?

If there's essentially only one payer, and even the terms of every transaction outside that one payer are dictated by national legislation, then the 'fig leaf' that the providers are nominally independent isn't worth much.
It woke me up after a heavy lunch. Thanks guys!
And that's the same reason why we had to create "Truth In Advertising" legislation, and why the word Free no longer has to mean anything. And why Wal-Mart foists cheap plastic crap on us, rather than products that truly work and last a long time. If you create a fake world, you can't complain when you'll have to live in it. :) No Disrespect, but honesty, and authenticity is not for sale, and you can't build a house on a fake foundation, it always crumbles eventually.
It's not a matter of need, it's a matter of courtesy, seeing as I've been called out for exactly that on HN before.
Not really, I'm referring more to the ability to factor out common patterns and compose them together to make queries, etc.
>> "Of course, most math problems have correct answers, but sometimes there can be more than one way to interpret a problem, especially word problems, leading to more than one possible right answer"

Seems fine to me. I always had trouble with word problems because the scenarios were, with rare exceptions, completely unrelatable.

>> "Though math teachers often tout the phrase “mistakes are expected, respected, inspected, and corrected,” their practices don’t always align. Teachers often treat mistakes as problems by equating them with wrongness, rath er than treating them as opportunities for learning—which reinforces the ideas of perfectionism (that students shouldn’t make mistakes) and paternalism (teachers or other experts can and should correct mistakes)"

This seems like a reasonable recommendation! I was mocked and insulted by teachers for getting things wrong. It did not in any way encourage learning.
Does this extend to partnering?

I'm working through my network to find a programmer that I would be comfortable partnering with on a startup. Am I going to be insulting him/her if I can't pay them? I would expect to split the company with him or her if he/she agreed to team up.
caveat: I created a similar site called domainjig.com, so take these as friendly suggestions.

The expired domain search is cool, well done with this tool.

Make it faster. Right now, loading the page to search for availability is taking longer than 10 seconds. When searching using the different tools, the response comes back after a few seconds delay. If you're comfortable discussing it, what are the major components of the backend? Is your data stored in RAM? Can you make the availability check instant?

eg. the expired domain search for "rabbit" over the last 30 days took a few minutes to return 2 pages of results. maybe the traffic referred from this post on HN is finding some bottlenecks for you?

The name spinner came up with some interesting suggestions. I'd suggest removing or hiding some of the advanced options, in favor of simplifying the default interface.

Hope that helps.
You are asking for a sales guy but describe a CEO, co-founder or even an advisor. The sales guy isn't best suited for bringing on investors.

Don't listen to the people who say don't bring on a sales guy. Most people haven't done it right in the past which is why they think it is a bad idea for everyone.

Find a hungry young performer who is willing to forgo a guaranteed compensation plan for a high potential compensation plan and pay them on performance. Somone with 3+ years under their belt, hopefully without kids and a high mortgage. (If they have renters subsidizing their rent: bonus points, that's a money minded sales person.) Use a ramp or draw if you have to. (Draw: is where salary now is taken out of future commissions. Ramp: it varies but maybe now they get X base salary and Z% commission and as the pipeline grows, they get a smaller base and higher commission.) I have been in sales for over 10 years and am dying to jump ship for a start up with potential but do not have the safety net at the moment.

Incentive-ize overperformance. Make their commission .75X at 0% - 75% of goal, X% at 76 - 100%, 1.25X% at 125%+. (Arbitrary numbers there, figure out what make sense for you.) You want to make them fight to make more money.

Don't think you have to bring in a seasoned VP of Sales from another company. They're like old Jaguars. Classy, expensive, impressive, high performance potentially, but you never know if they are going to start. Most of those guys are looking at you as a way to pass time between here and retirement. Maybe you can use the right one later, but not now.
Now that's what I call a post mortem. Kudos to the author.
"III. 2010-??: The Javascript Age" is true only if you build highly interactive web application. When you just need a web site with forms for CRUD content, many PHP CMS systems are just fine, often without coding except when you need a custom theme. The majority of the sites are such ones so LAMP is not near dead.
The difficulty isn't in ignoring support complaints yourself, it's in protecting your personal or corporate brand from the corrosive effects of all those complaints.

If someone googles your name and turns up a bunch of complaints in forums and blogs, that's a hard first impression to overcome no matter how you try to explain that you never promised those people anything.
Art is meant to be examined as much as food is meant to endure chemical tests!
Maybe. Who is your customer? How many designs a month does your typical customer create?

If it's an independent designer / web developer, then they may create 2 websites a month for $2k - $4k per month per customer, and that's only 2 designs.

Then there are people who just slap up websites for $300 a piece, and may do 5 or 6.

But who's the customer?

Sure, you might say that if I'm making $2k to $4k per website, and do about 2 a month, then I should be able to "afford" $20 per month, but that's really not the way a developer thinks.

Everyone wants $20 per month from us. It seems like everything is becoming a service.

I also don't know if I'll do a single website for ANYONE next month. BUT, I can sure tell you that I'll do 10 before the year is up, so if I could just buy a 10 pack, that would make sense to me.

Lastly, I ran into some frustrating bugs while using the demo. I couldn't subscribe at this point because I couldn't do something as simple as line up 2 blocks side by side. I try to drag them so they touch each other, but it keeps bouncing back and leaving a space.

Something as simple as this becomes a deal breaker at the moment. The tool itself is still broken.
One would also say that about understanding binary. Understanding is to me clearly a scale with no hard limits; what does it mean to fully understand binary? Knowing powers of 2 up to arbitrary n? Being able to make finite state machines for sequence detection, gray code converters, etc.? Knowing binary jokes when you see them?
It's not even relative: it's ironic. The term is used ignorantly by the people outside the reservation. The 'Savage' cares for his mother and reads Shakespeare, something that people outside the reservation don't do any more.

It's clear that Huxley does not regard the 'Savage' as being savage.
> Um you can't prove something didn't happen .... when in fact it didn't happen.

I think you can, to a certain degree. For example: by making the mail-in system more trustworthy, or by eliminating it.

My country (Chile) only uses on-site voting and no one alleges fraud because we know that it would be incredibly hard to steal an election with this system. The system is transparent, votes are counted publicly the same day of the voting.

The electoral service is one of the few public institutions that I deem competent and actually trust in my country, and I think I'm not alone.

To be honest, now politicians are trying to impose mail-in ballot system, but that not the electoral service's fault. That's idiot politicians trying to ruin something that works.
IMO no location offers any protection against NSA et al. The US spy on friend and foe alike.
Well, if it would been a free app, OK. But one did pay for this feature, isn't it. So I want my dollar back.
several of my pakistani friends say that their parents used to go to kabul in the 70's for a break because it was much more cosmopolitan and progressive than pakistan. it's important to remember that the more recent troubles are modern, not a contiguous thread from the middle ages.
