From the TC post:

> Was Griggs a total jerk who deserved to be called out? Yes. Plagiarism is obviously never OK and when called on it, even if you’ve had a bad day, you don’t ask for money. It was just mind-bogglingly stupid.

Given the Cooks Source editor's utter insincerity and refusal to admit that she did anything wrong, I'm not surprised they're going under. It's one thing to make a mistake, it's another not to learn from it.
What's the point of these tools that let you know whether Gawker's database held my email address? It's no secret that I have a Gawker account, and a Twitter account, and a Facebook account... What I would like to know is how likely it is that my password could be compromised. How were the passwords stored? Hashed? Salted and hashed?
My bad, I commented thinking 'id' was of serial primary key type.
Good Additions. I would also point out that if devs mess with indexes they definitely need to know the difference between clustered and nonclustered. I've seen atrocities due to a simple misunderstanding of this (guess what happens when you confuse the two and implement the opposite!)
I don't give a shit about Facebook! I use Erlang since Ericsson using it since 80-ies. It's already 12 years since Ericsson open-sourced it.

All those evented frameworks are single-threaded. All my servers have at least 16 cores and in few years they'll have 256 cores and more.

Good luck handling 256 instances of node.js per server.

Good luck connecting all your nodes into distributed cluster.

The only real competition for Erlang in this case is Jetty/Netty with Java or Scala.

Erlang/OTP is just a tool. You still need to work very hard to build a system like Facebook Chat!
We are working on something similar in Australia - http://www.startup-australia.org/thevalley. I am moving to SV early next year. I'll try to add to the SVstartup wiki based on few bits of information I have gathered.
Your link to the Herald Tribune and Mercola both recommend DHA (and omega-3). It is seriously one of the greatest things you can take, hands down. Nordic Natural is an expensive brand, and buying at Whole Foods is even more expensive (try Amazon, and a cheaper, but quality brand is Carlson's). It is hard to tell sometimes when you go off a supplement the true effects because your high DHA levels can take a while to be used up, and even then the body has processes to try and scavenge or breakdown molecules in other areas to make up for it. It is much more efficient and beneficial to provide the needed stuff in a useable form.
Ivy League schools breed leaders not us over paid worker bees. Only engineers complain about working under non-engineers. Lawyers at law firms don't have that problem.
CLion is great for C++ on all the platforms
I couldn't find the talk hinted at, but this blog post seems to touch on some of the same ideas:

Please take note that Spotify pays sub-market salaries for these cities. The reason being that they do not offer RSUs but instead public stock options without any discount.

- Typical FAANG compensation: X base pay + Y RSUs + Z signing bonus

- Spotify: X base pay + Y stock options (public, so equivalent to you purchasing stocks really) + no signing bonus
It is unfortunate that you don't appreciate how his actions further establish and protect our rights. I suggest you read the case of Turner v Driver to see how standing up for your rights can establish important legal precedent that benefits everyone.

This case is, in my opinion, highly unlikely to go in front of a jury. I have seen many cases similar to this end in five to six figure settlements.

For example, this interaction with similar circumstances resulted in a $41k settlement and a departmental policy change: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sV6nsq6IIHg. This interaction was only a short detainment, yet it resulted in a $75k settlement: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=02J2EVyxfbU.

I could easily provide another dozen or so examples.
It's more of a bot prevention mechanism than identification, however, I believe it encourages people to be more responsible for what they post also.
Evergreening. US patent system has no provision to ban this practice. India, for example, requires the patent to be substantially different from the original. It’s the same trick used by drug manufacturers.
You can come up with technology without patenting it though. If there were no patents then presumably companies would find other ways to make money from inventions, for example by being the best at producing them or improving them more frequently.

Consider Linux, a bunch of companies have made bank from that.
For a few decades I tried and failed to make hostfile blocks, guided access mode, browser focus-tracking extensions, day planners, public accountability, timers, and more work for me.

What actually works as I count the weeks to my fortieth birthday is a fragile and ever-shifting combination of adderall, sleep, diet, exercise, therapy, e-ink devices, and the courage to be open up and be vulnerable with those who depend on me at work and at home.

Splurging on a color laser printer and an e-ink tablet have given me two more ways to have a hope of staying on task a bit more every day.
Yup. Setting up k8s with kubeadm on bare-metal is very straight forward and can be done within a few minutes on any linux host that is supported by kubeadm and docker + ssh access.
Thanks. The blog URL will direct correctly shortly -- it's a temporary problem.
The article seems to indicate that a large focus of elementary is improving the UI of individual applications(it specifically meantions the Nautilus file browser and the Midori web browser).
Your feedback isn't too harsh at all. However, I think you ended up looking at both www.thehealthful.com (our site) and www.healthful.com (a different site).

So the relevant feedback is a login is required to do anything. However, how does that differ from Hacker News?
Hilarious. We use it amongst ourselves, but I didn't realize Brian had actually submitted it to the Urban Dictionary.

I tend to use it as a blanket answer to questions about extreme scaling. It's a way to tell someone that they're focusing on a problem that is really not an issue at such an early stage of a startup.

Q: "Can Rails scale to 100 million unique visitors a month?"
A: "That's a Maserati Problem. No matter what the answer, you'll be happy as hell to have that problem."

There are many female web designers and graphic designers for sure/ Many of which do tweet and such, but yes, thinking about it, not so many that blog frequently.

And that's the distinction here isn't it. If it were titled, 'top web designers' then you would have more to choose from.

One who does come to mind however is http://lorelle.wordpress.com/ been following her blog for a few years now.

:)
Ah, 3d games and image manipulation. The last resort of all native arguments. This is going to change pretty rapidly with native client I think.
Should we acquire Google in an all-cash deal?
We are trying to save mass lives here friend.
I've had the same problem using Preview. While recent versions of Preview might open the USPS labels, they did not render as well as they did in Acrobat. An earlier version of Preview did a better job of rendering.
The author also makes a common mistake: blacklisting as safe string escaping. My standard is to only accept alphabetic characters in any file-based user input system (I find very few filesystem problems require more than this). For example, one of my applications allows people to upload files. They never access the file names themselves, but are allowed to input a "file name." This file name is all alphabetic and is checked for length restrictions and encoded in my own file naming system. The translations are maintained in the application database. This prevents a wide variety of attacks on the filesystem itself.

Moreover, this whole article embodies the statement NEVER, EVER, IN ANY CIRCUMSTANCES TRUST USER INPUT.
Some choice quotes:

"I understand her side of it, and their side as well, but it is for our protection so I have no problems with it," said Gwen Washington, who lives in Killeen.

"It's unfortunate that that happened and she didn't get to fly home, but it makes me feel a little safer," said Emily Protine.

"Baaaah, baaaaah.", said Traveler Three
Libertarian Echo Chamber - this is exactly what it is
This has been addressed by many authors since modern computation was formulated, for example by Turing himself. We learn about and discuss Newell and Simon's Physical Symbol System hypothesis in undergrad classes, ie. explicitly stating the underlying assumption. Once in a while someone will assert that computation is not sufficient, eg. Penrose, and generate discussion.

In practice you can work on AI-the-engineering-discipline without taking a position on this. Perhaps this is why you feel that researchers don't talk about it. Disciplined scientists tend not to take public positions on things they don't know for sure.
I can imagine one of the 1st gen iphones fetching a few quid down the line.
The most surprising is that only 50,000 of them converted into email signups.
What is the issue with using floating point to represent money?
If it categorises it correctly this could be a great tool. I could set a budget for say my food shopping and get push notifications when I am about to go above my budget.
You can rent movies in the French store; I've done it.
Different McDonald's around the world have different menu items. It's not so different as to make up for reveling in the experience, but it would be mildly interesting.
You can see a version of this by going to https://www.pizzahut.co.in/, https://www.pizzahut.com.hk/en/order, different countries and see what they put on pizza.
The F-35 failed from a certain institutional perspective by becoming a real plane. It is no longer a magic money pot where you could park your pet projects for funding.

As an actual fighter-plane, it is fine.
Obligatory dogpile, but I'm hoping for the day you can disable Ctrl-Q to prevent accidentally closing the browser with a single keystroke. It's impossible to do on Linux.
I was wondering : What is the purpose of picture in picture? I don't have any use case for it and was curious about who does.
This is an interesting point, but I'm not sure I follow.

I get how the F-35 has raised the cost of air war for the NATO countries which have bought into the F-35 program.

But how has the F-35 program raised the cost of air war for other countries?
I'd like to see phones get to that level of standardization too. Maybe wishful thinking. But imagine being able to grab a generic GNU/Linux image and slap it on your phone no matter what that phone is!

I suppose the only phone manufacturers that are at all likely to do something like this are companies like Purism and Pine64.
Oh wow, OK. Wikipedia:

> In 2015, the Pyramid re-opened as a Bass Pro Shops "megastore", which includes shopping, a hotel, restaurants, a bowling alley, and an archery range, with an outdoor observation deck adjacent to its apex.

I was going to make a Laser Moon joke [1], but then I read further down in the same article and saw that the Pyramid does in fact now also have laser tag, and I just don't know how to top that.

Because you don’t have to cram 2 new desks into the expensive 1 bedroom apartment you share with your partner.
I don't think Thiel thinks this. I think Thiel's argument about monopolies is that good businesses act like monopolies because they have no competition, i.e. it's better to be Tesla[0] than to be starting a fast food franchise. I don't agree with Thiel on this, I think you're more likely to get rich in an area where there is already demand, but Thiel is more focused on people that pioneer new industries.

[0]: Yeah, I know there are other EV manufacturers, Tesla is really not competing with them at this stage and never really was.
Agreed an all counts. Its a stretch to imagine TCP is better at performance.

{edit} though performance isn't really about wire time or packet size - its about cpu time on either end plus buffering. Including router time since that's a cpu in the path.
I would hope artificial agents are intelligent enough to realize that erasing their own utility functions to grab resources has very low utility! Cooperation is a high expected-utility strategy for the mean agent, which is why it evolved in the first place.
Not sure why you are being down-voted. H1b employees are to be paid prevailing market wages. I'm on my phone, otherwise I'd find the link that can be used to get that wage amount.
That's mincing words, considering the whole prpblem a trick because maybe no one is a person. That resoning also shows that the "next item in a finite sequence" questions can have any equally correct answer. It doesn't hold up to Occam's Razor.
second the photo request....
Although I would prefer having a phone with an open-source GPU driver, the situation is not too bad with the Neo900: apparently you can run without the non-free blobs as long as you don't need 3D acceleration: http://neo900.org/faq#gfx
Of course one should hold all ones beliefs lightly.

But to dismiss quality evidence because of crackpot comments is irrational.

I know nothing about gene therapy. But if you find a venue where peer reviewed papers on global warming are greeted by a flood of comments who deny it yet don't explain why then saying they are equally valid or equally likely to be propaganda is not being rational, it is failing to see a dangerous anti scientific social movement.

>corporate pr puppets too

To whit, post an article about Facebook's appalling privacy policy and watch what happens.
Higher education improves economy and reduces unemployment. "whether it is worth it?" is wrong and irrelevant question.
It's "permanently affordable" housing. These units won't be on the general market again any time soon.
Generally, the common wisdom is still that Docker, lxc, and linux containers in general haven't been audited and hardened enough to use for multi-tenant isolation, so this seems like an odd choice. The article doesn't talk at all about even doing some of the common hardening people might do in these circumstances (limit syscalls with seccomp, get rid of suid binaries, grsec, AppArmor).

I'd be extremely hesitant to trust the sandboxing here.
Yeah, I think they are right on the money with that.
Yes, I was being sarcastic. You do, however, occasionally get real cutlery, even in economy class, with some airlines.
It'd be nice if there was also an option to invest in a diversified fund (like Angellist)
Well besides the guide dog's puppy raising guidelines (which are fairly long and detailed) we took him to an agility school after he was career changed[1] which used a device that make a 'click' sound (clicker) which was used to tell the dog "yes that exact thing" and treats. Apparently that is pretty common (but I was not aware at the time). But between the two experiences I don't think there is anything I couldn't train him to do, if I can communicate exactly what it is.

[1] Seriously, that is what the Guide dog folks call it when a dog washes out of the program, in our case it was for a skin allergy which would have been undetectable for a blind person to notice, not for his lack of trainability.
I think that's the problem, that this is considered fun.
Some people also like to measure their dicks . . .
It is a joke.

Things that are shorter or smaller generally take less time to produce than things that are longer or larger, it's a joke because the opposite is true in this case. Jokes can be true statements as well as falsehoods.
I don't understand why more people don't use bcfg2. Its awesome for this purpose (and I think better than puppet or chef.)
HTML and CSS are DSLs. DSLs are programming languages. Programming language doesn't have to be turing complete. See Programming Paradigms for Dummies: What Every Programmer Should Know http://www.info.ucl.ac.be/~pvr/VanRoyChapter.pdf

EDIT: fix markup
I would also add that if your app requires Apple to update its internal approval guidelines it will take you forever to get approved. So if you're innovating on your app's business model or something like that - be prepared.
> almost always performed by government employees, not contractors.

Tell that to the numerous private NSA contractors in the business mall across the freeway from Fort Meade. Former Unit 8200 guys are raking in millions.

I submit that you don't know what you're talking about.
One of the problems is that there are actually relatively few big cities in the U.S. that also have the quality of being nice places to live. Most of them are huge (or formerly huge) manufacturing centers, populated by people looking for unskilled jobs. Cities are generally built as "nice places to live", they arise because cities are efficient nodes for economic exchanges to take place. Some urban areas have almost no housing at all! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tysons_Corner,_Virginia

Outside of parts of New York, SF, Seattle (and maybe 2 or 3 others), most urban centers are high crime dumps with the additional quality of being frighteningly expensive to live in and then completely surrounded by vast heavy industrial wastelands.

Don't get me wrong, I'd give my left leg to live in NYC at the standard of living I have in boring suburbia. But back of the envelope calculations show I'd have to make 3-7x what I make now.

At least the nice folks that built my suburb designed it with a walkable layout to a commercial town-center stocked with everything from a Gym and Movie theater to a dozen restaurants and groceries so I can pretend I live there.

Most people who write this kind of stuff really don't mean "people should live in cities"...what they really mean is "people should live in city (singular), and that city should be NYC or SF (or Seattle in some cases)".
Can't agree more about the value of Discrete Math. Any programming worth his salt can wax about combinatorics and counting problems at a moment's notice. I'm thoroughly convinced I'd be a few years further along as a programmer had I learned discrete math at an early age.

But anyway, the Teaching Company offers a phenomenal course on Discrete Math, taught by none other than the "Math Magician" Arthur Benjamin (seriously, this guy is magic. He can do 5 digit squares in his head!). It's easily torrent-able / available through more traditional means.
The referencing (i.e., the social interaction) is always that hard part. Many resources are already available, so making one more (even HN specific) doesn't solve anything. If the new resource were decent then it would get referenced, I think. And that may make it worthwhile in itself. But I'm doubt it will do anything about the normal ebb and flow of "learning to program" posts and replies.

Some sites give links to such info when a user signs up, have always visible links in a sidebar, etc., and people still ask, and just as often.

So I think dealing with this is like doing laundry: however well you approach the task and whatever resources you throw at it, it will need doing again in a few days, and a few days after that, forever. Realizing that, you can make the task as pleasurable and efficient as possible, but it will always be a recurring task.
>Note, the buses can be dangerous if they aren't local buses. Some special tourist buses disgorge the passengers into a small village, where taxi drivers insist on exorbitant fees to take you back to civilization.

As somebody who has taken a variety of buses in China, I have to question this. Do you have a source?
If you go to the homepage and click on Add to Safari, you will see your options in a grey box in the upper left.
I just taped this quote on the bottom of my primary monitor. I think that, other than "The worst outcome is mediocrity", it's the most insightful (and directly relevant to me) thing I've read on HN in ages.

Are they asking all kinds on inane questions, grumbling
about the colors, and telling you everything you did
wrong while you can’t pry them away from your demo?
>> Success. <<

Are they smiling, nodding enthusiastically, telling you
what a great idea it is, and then wandering off and not
answering your email?
>> It’s not working. <<

Also, you can create interactive apps with the Flash client and server. For instance, 2-way video chat.
If someone printed it out they then wouldn't know what ago refers to. I will revisit the coloring and size though -- I think I could de-emphasize it a bit.
I fully understand your point, but those words could be interpreted either way.

Only Dropbox can confirm whether it is theoretically possible for Dropbox engineers to peek at user data.
This shows the advantage of living in a relatively inexpensive country.

I make between $3-6K/mo extra through technical blogging in my spare time, and I couldn't afford to quit my day job as a result of that revenue alone (not that I want to). Conversely, if I was living in Poland, I'd be king of Warsaw. :-P

That's the beauty of income from the Internet. It can be virtually independent of where you live, so if you reside somewhere inexpensive you can acquire a ridiculously good lifestyle for much less money and effort of your North American peers.
I'm the author of the password management series on FilterJoe. For those who feel uncomfortable with password managers, a passphrase system can work and that is included in the series:

http://www.filterjoe.com/2010/12/06/a-base-phrase-approach-t...

However, I suspect that very few people are willing and/or able to do this. Look at what people actually do, and how it fails: http://www.filterjoe.com/2010/05/14/the-usual-way-to-manage-.... About half the population uses the same 2 or 3 passwords on all sites. A third use the same password on every site. This is according to a Sophos study: (http://www.thetechherald.com/article.php/200911/3184/Interne...)

So at least 80% of the population has terrible password security. Most of them will never change unless they are offered a very simple and convenient alternative.

Password Managers like lastpass, 1Password, RoboForm, and KeePass are currently the easiest way to manage passwords in a relatively secure manner.

As you say, there is the theoretical single point of failure. But in all of my research, I have not been able to find a single instance of a password database (from one of these 4 market share leaders) being compromised when protected by a strong master password. On the other hand, password theft occurs millions of times per year. As you likely know, those who reuse passwords often then get more serious accounts hacked when a password for an inconsequential account gets captured.

I would love to see the tech community rally around this simple solution for the masses, just like they did for virus checkers on Windows systems a decade ago.

It's certainly a reasonable thing to try, but as as your aunt eropple notes, an emergency shutoff should be something so obvious that a person in fear for his life would think of it.
Analytics. The most valuable thing that can come out of an early launch is insight as to what works and what doesn't. Where are users losing interest and not engaging?
StartTLS seems weaker than even regular TLS as a protocol. Looking forward to Google's E2E.
