"Normal" Considered Harmful by Alan Kay (asx video)
http://media.cs.uiuc.edu/seminars/StateFarm-Kay-2009-10-22b.asx
In many ways the most important eye opener lecture I ever saw, and I very rarely say such things. This talk sums up a why most of the things done in computing (like web programming) is not done well. It starts by looking at what humans are. If only less than 1% of us is intrinsically interested and looking for really new ideas, and also must have ways of discarding the mediocre to bad new ideas, it becomes clear why it is so hard to have new ideas that change our outlook (epistemological stance). In computing today that is the reason we have so little new ideas, Still this talk is the first step in realizing what to avoid when having new ideas. This approach did yield me some new ideas like message passing systems, scalability like the internet and massive parallel processing to solve the manycore dilemma we are faced with today.<p>View with VLC.

Ask HN: Modern, performant, open source e-commerce platform options
I’m about to start a new project and it’s been a while since I looked at e-commerce software.

It seems that all the same old options (magneto, woo commerce, drupal, opencart, etc) seem to be the ones most often recommended in the listicles.

There have been lots of recent improvements in CMS and I would appreciate being informed of similar e-commerce offerings that are similar.

Features I appreciate:
* self hosted and open source
* easy for consumers to use
* support for privacy respecting analytics
* integration with at least Zapier
* fast and lightweight especially in the back end
* no nickel and dimeing to get features (not opposed to paying, but not for every little thing)
* multi-lingual
* multi-store
* serial number tracking
* product configurator
* inventory management (basic + locations as a wish list item)
* integration with a PIM (also taking recommendations!)

I know Drupal Commerce well, but feel it’s possibly too slow. Developers used to be good value.

Woo-commerce requires too many paid add ons and might also be slow. This is a shop first, content second project. Is my prejudice against Wordpress out of date?

Magneto seems over complicated and sluggish. It does have all the features.

I like the idea of heavily using Stripe’s features including the product and invoicing parts.

What are your recommendations? Thanks for your time and advice.

Implications Of How A VC Is Funded: Diverse LPs
http://www.markpeterdavis.com/getventure/2008/03/implications-of.html
In my post, How A VC Is Funded, I listed four way in which VCs obtain capital to invest in startups. Each of these four sources of capital has slightly different implications for entrepreneurs.

Fundraising Cycles
Investments made in a VC fund by a diverse group of limited partners are integrated in closed end funds. As a result, VCs who raise money from a diverse group of LPs have to go and raise capital from limited partners every 3-5 years. Money is raised, the fund is closed, the capital is invested and then another fund is raised.

As a result, entrepreneurs can be affected by where the current fund is in its lifecycle. If you receive an investment from a VC when they are raising another fund, the VC will likely be slightly busier than they would otherwise be. Fundraising is a very time consuming process for VCs, making them very busy. This doesn’t mean that they won’t have time for you, it just means that their schedules will be more complex and they will be slightly harder to reach.

However...

Why goo.gl needs a re-design , and also other Google products?
I love google products. I use Gmail , Docs, URL Shortener and always play with Google Labs features.

Problem with Google is they are sometimes really poor in user interfaces.
I have two recent scenario which I have forwarded to Google Team.

1.) Google Docs:
Google Docs is wonderful , I use it as my To-Do list, for keeping updated Resume, and reference library for own documents.

Google Docs, create INSANELY long URLs and they are not easy to share.
Although Google has its own goo.gl URL shortener ,while sharing they are not giving facility to shorten the URL.

2.) goo.gl Interface

goo.gl is again good service. I prefer it over bit.ly, don't know why but inclination for Google products is may be one reason.

Current goo.gl interface has :
1. Long URL
2. Short URL
3. Created Date
4. Clicks

but I have shortened a Long URL for some specific reason and if it is some document or some link , I surely would love to name it, and don't like to remember it as Long URL.

So a Dashboard of goo.gl is full of ambiguous Long URLs, and which you need to remember or click it to know why is this URL getting so much hits.

Simple solution is this :
Add one more column:

Column 0: Name

That's it.
Use CSS3 Media Queries To Create Mobile Version of Website

The good thing about CSS3 is that it brings about various promises and solves many problems. But it also has a bad side to that it does not support Internet Explorer 8.

The article below will show a method which makes use of a portion of CSS3 not supported by Internet Explorer 8.

1) The ability of anyone to begin a site for exchange (given that this has the downside of each being easily stopped/blockable/moved by authorities that a distributed system does not)

2) The ability to create new currencies for anything, whimsical or not

3) Being an incredible platform to build highly private systems (email, social media (Facebook/Twitter, as it has an encrypted "user" system and a way of exchanging arbitrary information with other users or any set of other users).

2)The ability to create

New EU Law Forces Online Companies to Remove Personal Data

Whilst not new I do note that ycombinator does not appear to accomodate the ability to delete your account in any way shape or form.

Why is this?
Ask HN: Laws to comply with when storing FAFSA data?
Background:

I am volunteering development time to a local non-profit in my home town by advising a group of high school computer science students as they develop a website for the organization. The non-profit grants student loans with 0% interest to help local students pay for college. The first milestone is a simple static site, which is going very well. The second step is to create the typical user/admin login paradigm where students can submit applications and admins of the org can process those applications.

Question:

The application that a student would submit will include information (or a copy of) the FAFSA [1]. Obviously, the information contained in the FAFSA is very sensitive and needs to be protected appropriately. Is anyone aware of any specific regulations which specify how to protect FAFSA data. I was thinking something like PCI compliance for CC info, HIPAA for health information, etc. I am not familiar with the educational space and was wondering if someone might point me in the right direction.

At a minimum, I was planning to use a robust TLS configuration with PFS to protect the uploaded FAFSA data (likely in PDF format or similar) in transit and a private S3 bucket with SSE [2] to store the data at rest. Then, once the information is no longer needed it could also be deleted so that the data doesn't persist unnecessarily (likely, several months to a year or more).

Any pointers to related regulations? Any other suggestions on the technical approach/solution?

Any and all advice is appreciated!

Microsoft struggles to get Hyper-V drivers in Linux kernel
http://www.networkworld.com/news/2011/071811-microsoft-hyperv-linux.html?hpg1=bn
It was recently reported that Microsoft is now one of the top corporate contributors to the Linux kernel. But the reason for Redmond's recent flurry of contributions lies in the fact that its two-year-old project to get Hyper-V drivers into the Linux kernel has taken longer than expected. The drivers are still in the kernel staging tree, and Microsoft has to finish the items on a to-do list before Hyper-V drivers can move out of the staging area. When asked why it's taken so long, Linux project leader Greg Kroah-Hartman says the issue was simply that "changes were not being submitted that frequently."

Entrepreneur Alert: Don't Choose the Wrong Song 
http://www.davidblerner.com/david_b_lerner/2010/03/entrepreneur-alert-dont-choose-the-wrong-song.html
Sometimes, when Simon Cowell tells American Idol contestants that "you chose the wrong song" or "that was a bit indulgent", it makes me think of entrepreneurs I've seen jumping into the wrong business without enough thinking and preparation. Often, the Idol contestants will sheepishly nod in agreement or mutter some sort of wistful explanation such as "well, the song really spoke to me", or "I saw it and just started playing it in rehearsal". Simon, more so than the other judges then will often remind the contestants that they are actually participating in a competition.

RefRef - DDOS tool By Anonymous
http://www.hackersbay.in/2011/08/refref-ddos-tool-by-anonymous.html
The Anonymous Team Have Also Developed their own DDoS tool which is said to exploit SQL vulnerabilities to support the group's future campaigns. Previously they had been using LOIC for many of their operation . But due to this tool many of the Anonymous got caught may the tool was not capable of hiding their tracks . So this time they made their own.

According to Developer "RefRef is a revolutionary DoS java site. Basically, by using an SQL and .js vulnerability, you can send a page request packet from your home computer with embedded .js file, because of the vulnerability in the SQL/Javascript engine on MOST websites, the site actually TEMPs the .js file on its own server. So now the .js is in place on the host of the site. Next since you still have the request, it picks up the .js file, and all of the requesting for packets power happens on the server, not the requestee. I send two packets from my iphone, and everything else happens on the server. Basically eats itself apart, because since both are on the server, its all a local connection."
