I and my biz partner got 'non-traditional' seed-level funding and are looking to raise Series A soon. We are both married with children, full time responsibilities as fathers, and we both have day jobs in addition to our startup. It is a suboptimal situation for sure, but it can be done.

I think a lot of startup advice assumes biz partners can 'share a 1 bedroom apartment and eat ramen for 3 months while they code and launch', but that model cant work for everyone. It does, however, sound like great fun.
Verizon's plans and charges are almost dollar for dollar the exact same as AT&T, their global web/email services are actually a bit cheaper. Apple would have no interest in partnering with T-Mobile, heck, their service is worse and spottier than AT&T.
Judging from the title I would say that is about the worst advice one could give. I think most if not all problems of this nature stem from the artificial disconnect between design & implementation and the general idea of a designer as a "person who draws nice pictures". If you treat design like this, you get what you pay for (and from what I taste in the article, the term "css monkey" would be more apt). This article from 2009 illustrates nicely what I mean: http://www.osnews.com/story/22135/The_Problem_with_Design_an...
Facebook needs to put something in their terms of service saying:

If you are using our service in any way to contact a client of yours who owes you money, you agree to forgive the debt in the entirety.
I feel like most of the points made in the article could be modified to fit pretty much any career path. Work isn't always fun, that's why they call it work.
Yeah Wyden in particular has been on the right side of the net neutrality issue for years, him and Ed Markey from MA in the House.
50% of zero is less than 30% of something. If you go under, your valuation will be 0!
I'd love the ability to grep these files
To me it's seem he put more than one "job" under the designer bucket.

To me, an integrator (HTML / front-end JS) an art director, a usubility expert are different roles. Can you find somebody that do all this ? Of course, but if you just hire a "designer" without being more specific about your needs, you will end up in a situation like this.
This is really incredible!
The practical implications of someone running their own blog are terrifying!

I mean, it's always good to have these thought exercises, but I think you're panicking a bit about the sky falling if the thought of a billionaire former president being banned from a microblog is what your mind is worried about in the current moment.
This will lead to more violent unrest -- it will be seen as more "proof" that Big Tech, Big Media, and Big Gov are aligned against them.

Crazies on /pol/ and elsewhere use the term acceleration to celebrate actions by either side that move society closer to violence. This move by twitter will be welcomed by them.
> The type of person that stormed the capitol will perceive this as an escalation.

One can argue that this type of person would potentially perceive any action (or inaction) as an escalation. That doesn't mean that action shouldn't be taken.
They’ve been shifting the Overton window for years.

Are against open borders? Then you’re a racist.

Are against abortion? Then you’re a misogynist.

Are for a pro worker visa policy and tariffs on imports? Then you’re a nationalist (which isn’t even a bad word but they make it sound like one)

Are for the right to bear arms? Then you’re an uneducated hillbilly.

Are for churches and other religious institutions to decide for themselves if they remain open? Then you’re a religious nut job who thinks the world is flat.
Sure, free market, when someone communicates in manner that does damage to it that company will deal with it.
NYTimes has updated their article since publication, based upon my re-reading of it.

I _think_ this was not so clearly stated, or was misstated as "A Russian Company", in an earlier version.
I'm more than a little shocked that he wasn't there already honestly. You'd think he could find an intern to just copy his twitter posts.
How do they sound like a manager?

We frequently sit down together to brainstorm about features, or figure out what we can get done in the next few days, what needs to be working before my partner can show a prototype to potential customers for feedback, that kind of thing - this is where the "easy" comment usually comes up.
Agreed, as someone who started off as a non-technical person and realized the necessity to gain more technical skills, I can remember saying things like "Oh, this seems pretty easy, you can probably just do x, y, and z and be done with it." Boy do I feel like an ass when I remember those days.
You're right. Symbian does sell more devices when there were no real competition.
I'm not familiar with the Nokia N900.

Does it do HD (720p) video calls? Do both parties need to setup a Skype or GTalk account to have video calls?
Moving wp-config.php out of public_html is mentioned on that page, section 9. I think renaming the wp-admin would probably break more than it protects.

Not sure on the second question.
The power comparison is slightly misleading, because Tegra2 has powerful video decoders on-chip, while the Apple products use a separate PowerVX chip. If you aren't using that I'd be surprised if Tegra2 was significantly more power hungry than A4. There's some reasonably informed speculation here: http://www.anandtech.com/show/2911

Regarding the OP's question of iPad vs Samsung tablets: Yes, Samsung (or just about anyone) can build hardware as fast as the iPad. Any Cortex A8 chip (Snapdragon, OMAP3xxx etc) is roughly comparable.
I'm wondering about this too. CMU Sphinx seems like the obvious solution. Maybe they bought a commercial Sphinx dictionary?
You can 3D print an iPhone Continuity Camera mount before the actual ones arrive
This looks pretty sweet. THe treo I was speaking about was a little earlier than that and didn't have a sliding keyboard.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treo_650

I'm pretty used to the swiftkey touch keyboard now, but the one feature that the Treo destroyed any phone that I ever used was the ability to press function and calendar on a keyboard and the app would move right into creating a new item on your calendar or to-do list.
New York wants to be the big dog in regulating crypto-currency, which almost feels like they are protecting and working at the behest of the banking industry headquartered there.

But I do not understand how a NY prosecutor can subpoena a Japanese business?

Tick data:
Price, volume, time, total volume for every options series and every futures contract - 120,00 Euro per calendar month.

You would probably be more interested in top of level order book data though, thats 300,00 Euro per calendar month.

Don't know of other exchanges, but seeing as the FESX is one of the most liquid products in the world it should be sufficient for testing. Check the sample.
AppleTV is not the web which provides endless amounts of streaming content as well as reading Hacker News and other sites from comfort of my couch.

It's going to be hard to get work if you don't have any portfolio at all. Try designing some stuff for fun or for fake clients so that people can see what you're capable of.
I think he is referring to asset hosts in #20. Rails does it pretty easily. ActionController::Base.asset_host = "assets.example.com"
back in 2008 I wrote a post [1] about the (then new) change between desktop app and a browser plugin-based experience. Honestly, I don't think they ever nailed the right mix of great content and flawless user experience.

Eventually all our TV-watching will be done online - it'll just by through a different service. Hulu seems to be well positioned, but only time will tell.

If you've never worked outside of Tech, I can understand why you would think that. If you have, then I apologize for the miscategorization, but I find this attitude prevalent in Tech in general.

Most BigCos have two fundamental rules: you can't use any non-approved software[0] and you're to be at your desk at all times, even when you have no work to do. Given those restrictions, this makes perfect sense (although, a stealth switch works better[1]).

Believe it or not, most companies outside of tech are very controlling of what their employees can and cannot do with their computers. As an example, my first job out of college was with a NY branch of a multinational swedish-owned corporation that made airplane engines. One day, a top ranking employee walked out of the office with all of their blueprints on a usb drive and gave it to their biggest competitor[2]. Ever since then, they've forbidden any kind of physical data transfer, going so far as to pull all the cd and dvd burners from all desktops and disabling the USB drives (as much as possible).

anyone frustrated with the policies of their workplace is to invest their time on finding a better workplace

That's not an option for some. Not everybody works as a programmer. Aeronautical engineers, for example, have a limited number of employers. If you're not willing to relocate away from friends and family or you're not built for the city life, same thing.

[0]: Some even do network scans to check for unauthorized software programs on your hard drive
[1]: http://stealthswitch.com/
[2]: Yes, it's illegal, but I imagine he was paid enough ttraino risk it and even if he wasn't, it doesn't matter: once the blueprints are compromised, they can never be uncompromised.
That sounds really scary. Have you considered keeping your gun outside the house? It seems like you could end up with a real tragedy on your hands if during the midst of a PTSD episode you mistook a loved one for an intruder.
Easy. You do a relay attack.

I.e. instead of comp -> wireless -> device, you go comp -> extender <comp> -> extender <device> -> device -> extender <device> -> extender <comp> -> comp.
Well. If it adds to the value, the holes would also be a great conversation starter at conferences and hackathons.
You could use code from here on a Mac, http://osxbook.com/book/bonus/chapter10/ams2hid/
It would probably be best to have multiple triggers.
For someone like me who knows zero Javascript, this is exactly the sort of puzzle I need to get started. Elevator programming has always interested me. Thanks also to SeoxyS for posting some code - I was struggling a lot to get started without a few examples.
That's beyond the contract, so the price is subject to change. I don't have a problem with that. There isn't much I can sign up for today where I know what the price will be two years out. My mortgage qualifies, and that's about it.

In my experience with these things (although I haven't tried with Cox), month 25 is usually when prices go back down, because that's when they might lose you to a competitor.
And of course Instagram tells me, "No Internet Connection"

Like you couldn't connect to your server dude, don't pass the blame on!
Popular in the same sense that tobacco is popular.
> But Ive had a few very enlightening conversations with Japanese women who want more opportunities

I met a lot of brilliant young women in my company whose goal in life is to marry, stop working and raise kids. Women with a degree in law or economics that will stay less than 5 years in the workforce.

The problem of sexism in Japan is really complicated.
Time for them to hit the gym and call a lawyer!
How does a name generate harassment on its own? If it doesn't, then clearly the harassment is an issue that should be handled on its own.

It is definitely infantilizing to assume that any group can't adopt/use a word if they want, really has nothing to do with genders or anything like that as you seem to assert. Women don't have some unique historical relationship to the word "cock", and even if they did I don't think that would be a great reason. The black community reclaimed the N word, and that word is so extremely polarizing / offensive I'm calling it "the N word"! It's not about "toughing it out", it's about growing up and recognizing that words are whatever you want them to be.
Anyone knows what might have caused the outage?
Someone working in data centers might have a clue.
Which is the more standard way to use venv for Python 3.8 or newer?

1) venv at the same level:

create new project on GH

git clone https://github.com/user/myproject

python -m venv myproject

cd myproject

(activate venv)

____

2) clone first, venv in subdirectory:

create new project on GH

git clone https://github.com/user/myproject

cd myproject

python -m venv venv

(activate venv)

___

3) something completely different? if so, what?
I think the "File" menu is there because since everyone is used to it, it is expected. Other then that, I don't see a list of files, but I do see a list of documents. Subtle difference, big impact. A document is a file (however, I doubt even that at gdocs), but a file is not necessarily a document. Personally I want to work with documents, not so much with files. Lowlevel stuff is keeping me from doing my actual work.
Focus on "filtered" comments is a completely different discussion, and offering users an unnumbered slider to set personal threshold for where the grey vs black text divider falls on a percentile line between top and bottom scored remarks of the given thread, would accomplish 90% of what the TL;DR crowd want w/o all the problems of showing scores.
Cloudera is pretty much dominating the commercial Hadoop market now.
It has a huge marketing head-start and arguably better engineers, since it was founded by Yahoo's employees who thought they can do better by leaving.
They also have more experienced support and training organizations, pretty much by definition (Yahoo's Hadoop group didn't do that).

I'm wondering how Yahoo spinoff is planning to compete.
> This also us to work for tipping content on YouTube, Flickr, and GitHub, etc. without requiring the site to be directly integrated with TipTheWeb.

What happens if I tip someone whose video, photo, or code gets taken down?
Tables/dictionaries have been working great for Python and JavaScript, too. :D
That's why you use a different salt per user.
Have you looked at Haskell?

It's not really dynamic typed, but has no requirements of making the types explicit, nor of making your functions work over a defined set of types.
>>How is GA supposed to know the value of a lead

This is something you can assign to any value to a series of events, a single event, or any other combination in GA.

We had a notorious marketing manager who assigned a value of $3,000 every time someone landed on the contact page of our e-commerce page. He did this because you had to sign up and pass a credit score before actually becoming a customer. No matter that you didn't know if you actually got the email or if the customer actually signed up. But man, did it make the ROI numbers look good.
> we need to do some work getting people back into the idea of contributing whether they are compensated directly or not

First thing though, the scenario analysed here is a scenario where there is not enough thing to contribute to.

Let's imagine that everything can be done through a computer and only a few million developers worldwide are required to program the machines. Do you want 10 billion uninsterested people fight to get the job or only the motivated ones ? If there are 2 persons for 1 job, that is stupid to chose the one that hates it and just want to be home doing something else.

Secondly, considering that our whole economy is driven be consumption ( nowadays, there is virtually unlimited amount of money available on the investment side ), so a guy consuming the whole day is playing a bigger part in society than a guy working 12 hours a day and saving his money.
"Bundy has said he does not recognize and will not submit to federal police power over land that he believes belongs to the "sovereign state of Nevada."[28] He said: "I abide by all Nevada state laws. But I don't recognize the United States government as even existing.""

That has nothing to do with cowboys and farmers and more to do with a being a massive trespasser and all around freeloader.
Well, since 2010 Sun has died, and opensolaris is no more. It lives on as an open source effort called Illumos. At one point, solaris could run Linux binaries unmodified under a solaris kernel and userspace. That became un-maintained, but it is now working again.

One of the reasons this feature fell out of use was because it could only run 32-bit linux binaries. Now it can run 64-bit binaries too.

If you want to try it out there is a company you may not be familiar with, dear time-traveler from 2010, called Joyent, that will let you use this.

What is very interesting dear time traveler is that there is a format for containing programs and their environments called docker that allows you to use features, as you could in a zone, but which is easier to use than zones. You can deploy your containers built on linux to solaris zones with this feature, and Joyent lets you do it.
Remember when virtual machines came out? That technology gave us tools to create a 'layered' effect for compute related resources on a single, managed machine. Microservice technologies, like Docker containers, are a logical extension of that layering into the process space on the machine, and in many cases multiple virtual machines running on a single machine.

It's all about the layers, man.
Off topic, but I can't resist: Using Comic Neue with Comic Sans as fallback must be the typographic equivalent of russian roulette.
Yep. You can run a validator node by staking at least 32 ETH (or any amount through a staking pool).

Nodes will still verify transactions and execute smart contracts, of course. But there's no hash lottery to be won for mining blocks.
A motivational section in readme would be useful.

I can imagine that it’s mostly for convenience.

I can think of use cases including:

- downloading a single package from a monorepo

I didn't know Clippy was back
And if you make a mistake there, your whole database evaporates and the business dies.

It is possible, but it is expensive and risky to do it right. In my case there were perhaps five people that requested data deletion over the span of 8 years the site was working. Features that are so rarely used you don’t automate.

Granted, I could’ve added a button that would send the e-mail automatically. It just honestly never crossed my mind - will implement it in future sites :)
I would assume even trying to click on these profiles just once shows more “engagement“ and that’s the only thing companies like this “understand”.
There is a hypothesis out there that says that this phenomena, at least here in the US, may have been the result of an intentional conspiracy by parties that had a strong financial incentive to require millions of people to commute in vehicles over very long distances each day. Who would benefit? Oil companies and car manufacturers, primarily, though also suburban home builders and real estate speculators, road contractors, etc. Who helped promote the conversion, in this scenario? The preceding, in partnership with the government and mass media. There were legitimate "non-conspiratorial" reasons why someone might want to live in a suburb rather than a downtown urban area (such as White Flight or new married couples wanting to raise their kids in an area far away from the perceived dangers of city life, such as bums, gangs, "perversion", etc.) But at the same time, there were certain industries and companies that stood to gain very well financially if the whole suburb-highways-long-commute-and-back system took off.
Here's one of my local roundabouts:

Great news the US is moving toward sanity.
That's because it's a library reference, not a syntax tutorial.

Now, there's an argument that it should have a syntax reference as well, but that doesn't seem to be the goal (yet).
Monitoring has been pretty stuck conceptually in a rut of being little more than a noisy, whiny service on a huge bus of data for a long time. But, the mere term monitoring is a basis for slightly to much more things like capacity management, demand management, closed-loop horizontal auto-scaling, security analysis, advanced predictive analytics in general, and of course the usual data-driven novel business insight that people keep spamming as "Big Data" crap. Treating your monitoring data as a data warehouse is somewhat relatively new in IT beyond the usual tech companies, surprising enough.
Note that even if you accept this proof, it says nothing about a god that answers prayers or otherwise intervenes in daily life. It also says nothing about an afterlife. Unless you're a deist, ontological arguments are practically useless. They've been used in the defense of many gods now relegated to mythology.
Wow, the Galton paper is amazing, thank you. To be honest I'm like the scientists that he questioned first... until I read this today, I always thought that the whole "mental imagery" concept was mainly a figure of speech, as when people say they feel butterflies in their stomach, and things like that. I can picture my breakfast table, but it's more of a conceptual sketch than an actual image. I can only focus my thoughts on one thing at a time, and e.g. I know what the colors are but I'm not really "seeing" them in my mind - the fact that people can report a "brightness" value in relation to reality makes me think that my mind really works different from that of those people, for me the brightness question doesn't even make sense.

Now I feel handicapped, although I suppose that maybe if I could conjure up these mental images, I wouldn't be so good at symbolic processing. I guess this is why I have always preferred text to diagrams and such...

By the way, what I can do is hear music in my mind - and yes, this comes with pitch, volume, timbre, polyphony and everything. In fact if I'm at a place with a constant background noise - as in a plane, or near an air conditioning machine - I sometimes think I'm actually hearing it in reality (although I have learned that I'm not). I wonder if other people also experience this.
I get the algorithm, but what tool(s) did you use generate the page itself?
Yeah really. And the valuations in this unregulated, easy-to-manipulate secondary market in turn influence valuations for angel and venture investing ...

That's not a disservice. It's a reality check -- EDIT dispelling the even more half witted belief that "I can make money because he did", regardless of the quality of your idea or it's commercial viability.
