I believe Facebook already does that, try toggling "Top news" and "Most recent" to see it.

I've been thinking about adding something like this to http://friendbinder.com for a while now, though it's quite hard to get the filtering right to pick out the best stuff (I don't think just filtering the latest update is good enough).
MaxCDN is a really good value and the cheapest for an anycast cdn. vps.net resells akamai for $100/TB ($0.10/GB) which is also a great deal although you don't get netstorage with that (origin pull only). Simplecdn is not a great cdn, we've actually experienced outages on their service and performance generally sucks. cloudfront is good and getting better as they add more pops. If I were to pick a cdn I'd go with edgecast (gogrid or speedyrails resells), cachefly, internap (softlayer resells), cottendo.
Sure, and PHP will obsolete HTML.
Heh, I just think it's a silly article. If the button he clicked by accident did something harmless, he wouldn't have posted it... Except it did do something harmless, but he forgot to mention that fact...
If you want objective accuracy, do you then use aerial photographs, rather than maps? The point of a map is exactly that it simplifies information, and exaggerating or downplaying certain features is a way of doing this.
No, because administering the hardware is additional work, a burden that a commodity (cloud instance) does not carry.

We can already do this. Have a look at the Public Health England "Fingertips" website.

Actually, after the ban of the cars, the manufacturers looked for other races where they could use their monsters. They took them to Dakar, and to the famous Pikes Peak hillclimb race in the USA. Peugeot made a very good movie about it (although it is in a 405T16, which technically never raced group B, the car is basically a 205 T16 with another body shell) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UEuZG37gFdM
"It seems reasonable for anyone using Baidu to find an alternative for all of their services."

As always, majority of them simply don't care. Did many people stopped using Google after Snowden's leak on this side of GFW?

This + iPhone tracking log = bad news for privacy.
hmm. might could. I am consuming HN exclusively through google reader, so maybe I need to see a little more what it can do for me.
Most anything that filters out spam domains doesn't follow shortener links to them. Web forum spam is full of shortener links. Stop making shorteners.
I am recommending it to about 10 people right now!!! This is very very useful!
Without class-action why would these giant corporations NOT steal $5, $30 or more from all of its customers, when probably less than 1% will fight back?
I've heard this too, actually. I haven't tried it yet though. I've actually been terrible at the dry bean angle, opting for canned way too often out of sheer laziness.
yes, what do you want to know? there have been a few discussions on the topic in the past, i'll link them if they're relevant
In my experience the "stupid shit" and "crap you don't want" is often useful feedback. At the very least, it tells you which parts of your app are most confusing.

For example, if you get lots of complaints about something you consider obvious, maybe you should reconsider what's obvious. Often minor changes like improved docs or more googleable error messages can improve the experience for many users. And you'll see if changes are effective as soon as a specific sort of "crap" stops showing up in your bug reporting system.
Why not just say "Use your points to unlock new content" which does away with the concept of prizes altogether.
Interesting. The bit about GoTo.com becoming Overture, which preceded Adwords was news to me.

I guess I subscribed to the often told story that Google invented "text ads for search keywords".
The truth, (and a big part of the reason why we haven't already tried to solve this), is that it hasn't posed a problem for folks who are building apps in CoffeeScript. The transformation is straightforward enough that by glancing at the line number mentioned in the JavaScript, it's immediately obvious where the problem is in the CoffeeScript.

That said, I'd love to have a true solid debugger. The browser vendors (starting as soon as Firefox 4, perhaps) have plans to add better support for compile-to-JavaScript languages.

So here you have WikiLeaks, who have put themselves on the line to find and release these cables to the press -- and traditional journalists are once again just too lazy to lift a finger, point and click their mouse to log into Nexis or search via Google, and look to see if Cuba really did "ban the film."

This is really interesting. It goes to underscore the importance of actually checking the leaked cables since it appears the US government is actually lying to itself in secret cables.
The largest file I have to hand is the hacked Gawker database. (~75MB) Let's see how SubEthaEdit does with it concatenated with itself 6 times? (450MB)

Hmm, it never seems to open a window from that, though it remains responsive. (I can still open other files.)

Good old gedit can read the 450MB file handily, after a few seconds delay.

Aquamacs (Aqua emacs) asks me if I'm sure I want to open the file, then when I press Ok, it tells me it's too large to open a few seconds later.

If you just want to open a very large file with a GUI text editor, just continue to use your editor of choice, then download gedit for the very large files. It's small, respectably multi-platform, and free in both senses.

EDIT: Downmodded for reporting facts! Nice one, HN!

I don't see the point to alter the privacy settings.
Well, this site provides some links to interesting websites and articles. However, this site is terrible in terms of usability. TERRIBLE! I won't come back until this has changed. Good bye.
My bad, I missed a comma.

The former is Scheme and Java. The latter is Scala.
http://covid-19.seektable.com/ - it lacks the rate per 100k, but data source is trusted (JHU) and refreshed daily.
Would really be interested in the project. We’re building a tool to monitor model performance and data patterns and could see use of this.
LibraryThing is used by fine press book collectors to discuss the physical properties of fine editions from for example The Folio Society, Easton Press, Centipede Press etc. The forums will discuss in length for example expensive limited editions, the bindings, choices of paper etc. It really is a different audience to Goodreads, which is more focused on reviewing the content of books rather than the bindings.

If you love fine books and supporting small independent publishers, LibraryThing is an amazing niche community.
They do, but you don't need exposure of information by default. All of those features should be explicit opt in when prompted, same as phone apps.

But browsers won't remove that data exposure by default because advertising data and captcha systems. Torbrowser gets it right.
When you have to sanitize your environment like your are in a Level 4 Biohazard research facility, then maybe the thing you are trying to use just isn't worth it.
PeerJS is also using a short ID as a reference and needs more server support than just a STUN server.
Hello, my name is Bruno Alano, and I'm 24 years old, currently located in São Paulo / Brazil but with the possibility of moving.

I recently sold my startup (acting as CTO) that worked in the Lead Generation area through Chatbot. Now I'm looking for something new to invest my time in.

My expertise is in the field of artificial intelligence, and with great experience both in front-end (React, Next.js, Typescript) and back-end (Elixir, Python, Rails) since I worked as CTO for many years.

I have a great interest in the following areas:

- Digital Ads, how they can be optimized through AI (mainly when it comes to retargeting)

- Latin America in general

- Note Taking: How AI + Humans can increase productivity and understanding of concepts, something well oriented to RoamResearch (Zettelkasten) but simpler from the user's perspective

But I'm open to other ideas. Contact on HN or email (bruno [at] monoscope [dot] io)
"Most coaches came fro players" is very different from "players are expected to become coaches".

I can't think of any sport where players are expected to become coaches.
Cyberpunk Corpo wars come closer and closer to reality every day...
On the one hand, taxes are boring.

On the other hand, pretty much everyone I know wishes they had learned more about how taxes work in high school beyond the very high-level concepts of progressive taxes....
Any dragnet surveillance applied to Bitcoin will apply to other alternative digital currencies as well. If you want a future where people have financial privacy/freedom, you should not welcome dragnet surveillance of any digital currency, let alone the current flagbearer of digital currencies.
The same goes for any device you can buy today. We should demand more of manufacturers in general, I agree.

But you cannot expect that Apple should give you a legally enforceable contract (or whatever) pertaining to a product you haven't bought yet and they haven't even made yet.

The fact that the boot process on the M1 chip is explicitly not locked down on release is at least showing a modicum of goodwill.
This is real? A computer can take "an armchair in the shape of an avocado" as input and make a picture of one?

I can't believe it. How does it put the baby daikon radish in the tutu?
I want to know what PR firm is behind this so I can hire them. What's an article like this worth to that shopping app? 100k? More? Good lord...
I would suggest learning algorithms and data structures. I know that is suggested a lot, but I did not realize how little I knew until I studied these things. And I think that is part of what makes good programmers stand out as these things apply to all languages.

I then looked at my primary programming language (C++) differently. I wasn't just always using vectors any longer. I knew when to use them and when to use a queue or stack or hash.

In short, studying algorithms and data structures and then applying what I studied in C++ made me a better programmer.
They clearly are for both. You want the idea of going to prison to be on someone's mind when they seek out to commit a crime. And once they get there, you need to make sure a) they don't want to come back and b) they won't come back.

When you consider the socio-economic background of most crime (especially physical theft and violent crime) in almost every developed country, you kinda realize that not providing with them the skills to get employed when they get out is outright just daring them get back into the system.

You are right, there are limits. But these limits should not be set up by gut feelings. You gotta study the issue, and make the decision carefully to maximize good. Or else you end up with some hell hole of a system.
Here's the original HN submission, which links to the full-text of the article:

No it is just apart of their network, if you are in the area that has it, you get it for free if your phone supports it.

As far as support, I agree it is an issue but not one for me. I love my Nexus One and have had no issues, but then again I am not a typical user and honestly without a more mainstream approach the Nexus phones aren't meant for regular users.
I quite like it. I'm not a design guru so I'm fairly inarticulate when it comes to suggestions, but I would suggest that your sign-up thing at the top (that drops down) should be changed so your sign-up is on page. I imagine most people will miss it, and it is disproportionately large when you click on it.

Screw themeforest, best of luck with the themes!
Were the first two on the same hardware? Because the second one just screams "failing hardware" to me, and could easily be tied in with the first.

Startup "chkdsk" on a Windows machine that simply didn't finish shutting down should be very quick - basically the last thing Windows does is write a "clean shutdown" flag to the drive. On startup, if the disk doesn't have that "clean shutdown" flag set then Windows sees the drive as "dirty" and will prompt to check the disk. Chkdsk for this should take less than 5 minutes and will generally not find anything (since almost all processes had ended & almost all files should have been closed). If chkdsk in this scenario is taking a very long time or is making a lot of corrections, that's a very strong indicator of disk problems.

I have no particular guidance on sound issues.

There are a bunch of things that could impact battery life, but if you have hard drive issues and it's constantly remapping sectors, etc. then that would definitely have an impact.
I can't really speak to their quality, but I do find it interesting how different tiers of hotels price their in-room wifi.

High end charges, low end is free or non-existent, and then there's a mid-range where it's specifically called out as a free amenity and quality is pretty decent (Kimpton, Joie de Vivre, etc.). The theory that I've seen passed around is that high end hotels know that you're good for it, and their clients are accustomed to various upcharges already.

It also seems to be extremely uniform for different hotels in a chain; e.g. I have never seen a non-conformist Hyatt that doesn't charge.
Hello BTC, let me introduce you to Eth.
I'm not sure what you mean about "understanding" crypto, the concepts here are dead simple, there's not much to misunderstand.

In this scenario it doesn't matter that you can transfer some coins from a DEX to your "hard wallet". If you haven't registered your hard wallet's address with the government and linked it to your identity, you will be unable to use those coins for anything other than trading with other unverified wallets.

If you want to exchange the coins in your hard wallet for any valuable or material good whatsoever, without disclosing your actual identity to the government, you'd have to find someone willing to do so illegally i.e. a black market.

And the receiver of your "dirty" bitcoin, which is verifiably dirty because the transaction came from your (unverified) wallet, would then have to solve the same problem of laundering the BTC if he wanted to use it to pay for his costs / employees / etc.

And if we're talking about a large economic power, I'm not sure how banning crypto and making its transactions more difficult would help anyone; if anything it would negatively impact that crypto since it is less usable as a medium of exchange.

It may seem outlandish that a government would even go to these lengths, but I'd argue that wielding a centralized currency is too powerful for governments to give it up without a fight.
Is the spelling of 'winddows' intentional ? Obviously he's not a native english speaker so im not having a 'dig' just merely curious .
I had known him for a couple years, but we'd only started working together recently. That was probably the biggest reason, although when we got to the interview we discovered that rtm had apparently done his dissertation on something similar, so he had some technical objections also.
Yes, but if you have a cloud cluster of this size, it would still require similar time for systems administration, not? The only real difference here are hardware failures and replacements, but for a cluster of this size, I do not think that enough hardware failures will occur to occupy a technician that much compared to the cloud.
I give her full marks for posing the question but only about half credit for follow-up.

The question is solid, it suggests a variety of experiments;

o Put 'coupons' of $20 value on some of the desks.

o Put 'jewelry' of $20 (approx) value on some of the desks

o Put a 'Logo' shirt on some desks (Logo from the 'presenting' company)

o Put a 'Logo' clothing where the logo is different on each article and for different designers.

o Put a 'knicknack' (thing SWAG like) on each desk.

Do the experiments with boys and with girls. Ideally all college students, and preferably sophomores (since as freshmen their cultural values have not fused as much as they have by the time they are sophomores)

Three things you want to test:

1) Does 'ownership' change behavior?

2) Does 'commercial promotion' (coupons/logos) change it into something you are expected to take.

3) Does perceived value permute the results.

And of course the whole girl/guy thing.

In my experience I've met people for whom money was a goal (it was the having they desired most) and some for whom money was a tool (do I have enough to make x happen?). A smaller number for whom money was a means of influence.
More resources should make the number of fixes possible per year greater, but it may not substantially reduce the time from notice to fix any single issue (and may, because of organizational overhead involved, sometimes increase the time for particular fixes over an organization with fewer total resources.)

Maintaining code is not a trivially parallelizable function.
Was probably the engine gimbaling and thrusting up to attempt to correct but was just unable to due to the fins not being around the whole descent.
I would assume it has grown in the last few years, I also would wager a guess that most of these are related/derivatives of each other.
Yeah, turkish I is bit of a red herring due it being a quirk in Unicode specifically. From a previous comment of mine:

> They [Unicode consortium] should have specified Turkish alphabet to use ı and a diacritic to make the dotted one. That would have made (in this case) capitalization locale-independent. [...] I dislike the common usage of turkish i as a example because it is such a obviously fixable (if legacy stuff wasn't concern) flaw in Unicode rather than fundamental issue.
Their approach to making VPS/Cloud offerings simple and approachable are really what set them apart, in my mind. I run all of my simple things there, because sometimes I don't want or need the complexity that actually managing things in Azure, GCloud, or AWS require.
Voting and contacting your representatives is pretty efficient... Yeah, lobbying from big entities is a problem that we need to solve, but come on, look at what we have already achieved. Convincing the average people around you is frequently more work.
I just want to share with people that in no uncertain terms Dan Gisselquist\ZipCPU is transphobic and many members of the Open FPGA community are not a fan of him.

Ubiquiti is enterprise grade gear, so first thing is this is not a router, it's just an access point, and it's optimized for lots of devices, lots of interference typical of office scenarios.
The choice isn't GA or no analytics. You can do local server side analytics yourself if you wanted to, and even buy an on-prem product from someone out there that does the same.
I think this is related to techies have given up selling things, and now sell subscriptions, or best of all remotely terminated licenses for “purchase”. If you have a general purpose device, you’ll find all those artificial limitations can just as easily be removed, thus destroying the rent.
Yeah, let’s pretend that firmware isn’t a thing and RYF certification isn’t important. /s

I only care about repairability when it affects a product’s longevity. And if the drivers are proprietary and will be unsupported after the warranty runs out, who cares if I can repair the hardware? It’s useless anyway if I can’t get security updates to the thing.
Yeah, if I’m getting another laptop with an Intel CPU, I’ll just get a Mac: a Ryzen 4XXX laptop with Mac-like build quality would make me reconsider.
Did anyone used this service before it was shut down on 2012?
That's pretty amazing looking :-) I wish he had a video of it in motion, though!
Yeah, if I had a nickel for every time I heard someone rant about how stupid everyone is...
Learning Vim if you don't know it already is a waste of time for new programmers. If you want a text editor, use Sublime. If you happen to be in a terminal without a GUI, and need to edit something real quick, just use Nano.

Don't spend your valuable time learning Vim. It's not worth it.
Not sure I understand the temp table part. My point was that you are always calculating it dynamically. So if you have two dates in location x, timezone y and you save the rows

time1, x = time1, ytimezone, yoffset

time2, x = time2, ytimezone, yoffset

but given the timezone rule change time1, ytimezone has an offset of z1, time2, ytimezone has z2 offset. Now you have to compare the 'time' against the validity period of each offset dynamically in the query. You can I guess get away with also storing the UTC additionally and schedule recalculate on timezone rule change.

But even then the ambiguity of which timezone to actually apply remains as mentioned in other comments.
But you lose the constant syntax that allows STL containers to work. vector<int> and vector<Person> work because vector can be templated, and

int i1;
int i2 = i1;

Person p1;
Person p2 = p1;

both have the same syntax. If suddenly p2 = p1 no longer compiles and you have to do p2 = &p1 that looks really weird because the two sides of the = have different types and vector<Person> no longer will compile. On the other hand if we say all overloaded operators automatically convert operands to their addresses, then we are sort of back where we started with references: you can modify a variable inside a function without having to say &. Only this would be much less flexible than what we have now because sometimes you want an overloaded operator to take something by value, but wouldn't be able to do it.

This is great - I've been using Yeoman since the first 1.0rc, and have to say that the tool chain is excellent and covers all the main parts of development with ease. Easy to bootstrap a new project, intelligent defaults for code organization, testing and minification for production.

I haven't found anything else that comes close for solely front end dev work.
if nothing else, this shows how fantastically malleable children are. this is why we need parents, not advertisers, telling them what they should like, do, and explore.
In C++ unary prefix & is used in an expression to take the address of an object. To declare a parameter of reference type the & would be between the type name and the parameter name (i.e. after PanicInfo/before _info).

> let's assume that MS Word will give you a 1% performance increase over LibreOffice

If we would assume that the new ribbon-UI of Word is unfamiliar to people, then it actually could be that LibreOffice is easier, more performant, for people accustomed to (old) Word, than Word itself.
Wow, I just read the Wikipedia history of Kongo Gumi. I find it amazing that it was also started by a Korean.
There would be problems with interference from jammers.

I've spent time in a hospital overlooking a jail, and I really wouldn't have appreciated my mobile signals being jammed.
