Hi Peter

Thank you for your comment and questions. Let me try to answer them as best I can.

Of course there are networking sites out there that let people connect with each other, i.e facebook. But facebook is too general and is used more like an address book then a networking tool. When you see people connected you don't know the nature of the relationship. It's also very difficult to use it for professional networking since no one really posts what they are looking to do or who they are looking for. That is why niche sites likes modelmayhem.com are able to thrive and grow, because all users share something in common and work on similar projects.

Because the CTO would be a partner in the firm the initial compensation will be in the form of equity, just like it will be for me. I am ready to commit funds to the project, and have others who are interested in doing the same. Once all the piece are in place I will leave my job and work on this venture full time
Japan has a storied relationship with this question. My say-very-quietly-around-nationalists opinion is that the alphabet has become the fourth major writing system used in modern Japanese, via popular acclamation.
How about this?

Well, a watt per square meter is a measure of irradiance, so I guess if you integrate that with respect to time you'd get joules per square meter. But I don't know if that gives you anything interesting.
Joke? I couldn't joke about a deadly situation. I accidentally read "I shot myself".

Now as a side note, I want to say to everyone who downvoted my comment without saying why, I think this is an idiot's move. Yes, I am saying it. At least if you are going to do it, give a feedback. Otherwise you haven't added anything to the conversation. And just so you know, it's not about karma. It's about you not adding anything to the conversation.
Yes, file your evidence away for when the trial of "web-based-organic-growth" Vs. Apple inc begins.
That what was I thought when I saw the title, too. However, from experience I realized that making any sort of comment alluding that without adding substantively to the discussion would certainly elicit sanctimonious shows of disapproval.

The key to getting away with that in this topic would be to make an insightful comment about finite state machines, and throw the FSM reference in at the beginning or the end. Extra bonus if you can skillfully weave a Flying Spaghetti Monster narrative into your comment, like a parable.
While this doesn't answer your direct question, try taking a good-sized block of text (a couple paragraphs from Project Gutenberg, lorem ipsum text, whatever) and print it side by side, in several different fonts. Compare the feeling you get from the typography itself.

I mostly write in MonteCarlo (http://www.bok.net/MonteCarlo/), but programming fonts are a different discussion entirely.
Part of why these vaccines were developed so quickly is that much of the preliminary work was done for SARS.
At some point, this is soon going to backfire a lot and get a lot more harmful and uglier (for the people and the country). I’m kinda tired of every platform suddenly having the courage to do something while some of these platforms should’ve done a whole lot more over the years before the elections.

All these actions also seem to further fuel the beliefs that all the people who (partially or fully) supported Trump are being suppressed and beaten down by conspirators on the other side.

I don’t know the answers, but collectively humans of the last couple of decades have not figured out how to deal with misinformation in the Internet age. I wonder what the results of any trials have been. Shorter memory recall makes it seem like polarization has increased and gotten more violent.
Surprising for me. I just shared the link with my COVID pod, and I’m giddy for the mayhem to begin. Thanks for the link!
Doesn't it change the dynamics insofar as that you have a straightforward path from virus -> its mRNA blueprint, without more specialized and likely costly engineering of e.g. a adenovirus? This should then allow for broader protection against viruses with many strains e.g. a HPV vaccine cocktail that protects against all ~100 known strains vs. just the 9 it currently does.
Agreed, I see the topic come up more and more among friend groups with many of them not working tech. I’m starting to see topics on privacy pop up in mainstream media more too.
I'm in a similar situation. I like Clojure better than Elixir (though Elixir is "good enough", it sometimes feels like an ElCheapo brand Clojure knock-off) but I have a feeling that the problems I'm after - lots of small messages, resilience, scaling out - will be handled better by BEAM than any JVM.

On the other hand, the Dialyzer experience - especially in VS Code - is sorely needed in Clojure, and it has nothing comparable. Whatever Rich says, types (or specs) are not built to make code run faster - they should be there to protect you from your stupidity and laziness. Automatic inference, and one-click add-to-code, are a real treat.
Information that a provider creates itself isn't covered at all by 230, so they're potentially liable for things that don't originate from users like fact check labels no matter how they're applied.

That's one of the many silly things about the usual 230 discourse: one of the earlier flashpoints was around things like Facebook and Twitter flagging "misinformation" and the like, when they don't actually get any protection under 230 for those labels, since they're writing them themselves.
I remember reading an article about a correlation between IQ and prejudices, something that stuck with me as it seems prevalent, and likely the key ingredient when talking about bending opinions via hypertargeting of people on social media, such as supposed Russian involvement in Brexit. Cost effective propaganda when you can find all the people of a group on social media.

Interesting that the first couple of paragraphs talk about a meme, a viral idea he can assume we'll know of because we're all so connected online. Also refers to another popular online article in the same format he liked and adopted. Disconnecting someone from social media feels like it may only be helping their cause.

I think our social networks are too centralised and it's a problem, particularly because people can be accuraretly targeted with misinformation, as well as the social media algos displaying things out of order (i.e. their order). Unfortunately it's a truism that there are plenty people who are not empirically sceptical of what they read online and they're only too happy to share it.

As much as I don't agree with Trump on pretty much everything, I think he has a point about social media being arbiters of truth is a problem. I'm also a Brit so say very little about other country's party/policies. If only we could accurately measure reasons why people stormed Capitol Hill. My hunch is that information read online is the primary motivator, weighed in with the fact how information discovery is heavily entrenched in social media.

I would make platforms liable for their content (or at least greater emphasis on them taking an active role) and yes, I appreciate that would make them untenable as they currently stand, but I'm sure there's plenty of strong counterpoints that'd make me reconsider. At the very least, viral content's virality could perhaps be limited. Can't recall the last viral thing I saw that wasn't trivial but was positive. Social media has a lot of power at the moment.
Having worked there, I'd say their parents are anything but trivial. They're also a huge source of licensing revenue and cross-licensing agreements with other companies that have valuable patent portfolios.

IBM is anything but a patent troll.
I find it difficult to believe that the US would have any real capability of planting agents into that region, let alone the upper echelons of the dprk. Last I checked our intelligence agency were light on manpower especially in the field of developing human assets and all attention was being diverted to the middle east.

Secondly I don't think that any military action in north korea is possible without huge consequences, huge number of casualties both South Korean civilians and coalition forces. The dprk has been watching our moves for the past 60 years and despite what our media wants us to believe, we are not as invincible as we think we are. For one we westerners don't have the stomach to accept the sheer number of casualties, time and time again this has always been one of our critical weaknesses as evidence by the current war in iraq and the vietnam war. The US would never accept another Vietnam. Our military planners know this and have geared our troops for surgical strikes and precession. North korea has built countless number of tunnels and underground bunkers. If you watched one of the videos from the reporters who sneaked in a camera in, their subway systems are designed to double as troop bunkers.

I'm inclined to believe that for whatever reason the western media always seems to downplay the the north koreans. Very few countries have the organization and the will to carry out total war with the US. What a lot of people don't get is that they've been playing this defense game for over a millenia. It been well known suspicion that the DPRK export their trench/tunnel warfare tech to Vietnam.

It's a shame the koreas being sandwiched between china, russia, japan and the us with each vying for their own interests. It's a shitty situation which plays to NK's advantage.
I remember my first entry level job out of college 20 or so years ago. The job description said I needed to know C and x86 assembly. That was pretty much it. During the interview I found out I'd be writing display drivers and working with the Windows kernel, so between the time I accepted the job and started, I grabbed a book on writing Windows drivers and crammed. They did not expect me to have "3 years of experience with their stack" for an entry level job. Those were the days!
It might be incorrect for me to call this "free jazz," but since the early 2000s saxophonist Wayne Shorter has played with a band featuring bassist John Patitucci (who was in the Chick Corea Elektric Band), drummer Brian Blade, and pianist Danilo Perez. This band plays in an acoustic style, but it's not in the style of Wayne Shorter's 1960s Blue Note work; instead, it's in a very "free" style of jazz. I'd check out "Without a Net" (2013) and "Emanon" (2018). I had the opportunity to see this band live at the San Francisco Jazz Center twice: once in 2015 and another time in 2017.
I don't believe Dropbox has an exit strategy, at least not for the time being. From what Drew Houston has to say about the company[1], the big vision is to give everyone universal access to their files, regardless of where they are or what platform they're on [2]. That's something that they seem willing to commit to for the long haul.

[1]http://youtu.be/eaJKPCdimLA - actual quote being (21:16 mins): 'I'm completely dedicated to Dropbox ... I mean we're starting with files but there's all kinds of other directions we can go ... we're a long long way away from you being able to sit down in front of any computer, device, and have access to all your stuff.'

[2]The analogy that Drew used was Athena, which apparently is this infrastructure at MIT that gives you access to your stuff no matter which workstation you're on, on campus.
Or astyle for more versatile standalone formatter (and it's frequently the one used by IDEs)...
I don't really see what purpose a WhatsApp web client serves to be honest. I was under the impression WhatsApp replaces SMS. It's linked to a phone number, so linked to a phone.
Hm. How does this compare to Mithril JS (http://lhorie.github.io/mithril/)?

I just looked at the doc and read this thread (at 61 comments).

Same:

* virtual dom
* has its own tag syntax
* Mithril has MSX, but also supports regular JS data structure with m("tag", {attr:val, onclick: func, [more tags, "text"]}
* router

Different:

* Where Mithril allows you to build and transform resulting template structure before virtual DOM generation, Riot mixes HTML tags and JS, builds tags from that which can be composed
* Uses a compiler, Mithril without MSX can work directly in the browser
* Probably other stuff, too, I'm just reading the examples, at least is not supported Ajax/XHR

Speed is a big question. Mithril is plenty fast (there's a benchmark on the home page, and somewhere I saw a TodoMVC comparison which put Mithril near the top few months back).

I have not yet formed an opinion, but RiotJS' size and web component approach intrigue me. More example apps, plz, with client/server communication and CRUD ops.
The latter part makes me question whether the author read sslh's readme; it clearly notes that there is sslh-fork and sslh-select. If I recall correctly, upstream defaults to sslh-fork because it has lower idle overhead, and is arguably more reliable due to use of less code.
You know, deaf people have managed to survive by looking around before they step onto the road.

Anyone who thinks we need cars to make loud noises just so that everyone can feel safer, I will personally make sure to blare my horn as loudly as possible as I drive past their house at 2 am.
Synopsis for Episode 5: In this episode, Michael Smith (otherwise known as "Smithy" or @dreampipe) from Spuul joins us here for an interesting conversation on Southeast Asia from the past to present. Starting from his current gig at Spuul, Smithy offered insights on the global video streaming market with respect to Indian content and how Spuul has to apply different business models from subscription to direct purchase to the vast Asian market. We also traced his roots back to Yahoo! on how Yahoo!'s acquisition of Koprol jump-started the chain reaction of US technology companies acquiring Southeast Asia startups. Smithy share the story behind the scenes of Koprol to why Yahoo! worked on the intersection of communication and location with payments far before the days of LINE and WeChat. While having Smithy on the podcast, he shared his thoughts on product management, the location problem for startups in Southeast Asia and challenged the dogma of iOS or Android first in the native app development space.
The local PD is well aware of his work after the heroin incident. Trying to get him arrested isn't going to work.
That is what it looks like when you choose an ideology over people.

Sorry, Morgan. One of the most hard-charging young Lotharios I ever worked with saw "New Jack City" several times the weekend it opened, mostly on bootleg copies.
Old news. This - and all the work Reiser did with Btrees - is why we have Btrfs.
I know lots of people that still use crappy email services. Shocking that they're unwilling to leap off!
1) Although videos are visual aids by definition, it wasn't suggesting that a human could visualize any dimension except the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd I believe; this is why mathematicians must use numerical expressions (iterated for the nth time on HN) because human cognition is inextricably tied to interpreting perceptual data within the 3D Cartesian plane. 2) It is a youtube video. 3) Node (n-2) of this one was merely suggesting rather matter-of-factly that confusion is a weak conjecture. 4) I really don't disagree on node (n-1) because any spatial dimension can be parametrized possibly dispelling the "4th" part. I'm assuming your beef is that time breaks down in 5D (or 4D depending on who's counting) because it ceases to move in one direction? 5) If the former is true, Poe's Law still holds, and no matter what, I plea the 5th on further comment of this submission other than god forbid an innocent observe this video and enter into the nth dimension with an error margin of +-D. ;)

So you were right about the "pithy one liner".
Does anybody remember (for example) Reagan's cabinet? George Schultz, captain of Marines in WW II, secretary of labor then of treasury for Nixon, secretary of state for Reagan. Donald Reagan, lieutenant colonel of Marines in WW II, CEO of Merrill Lynch, secretary of the treasury, later chief of staff for Reagan, James Baker, USMC service in Korea, switched jobs with Regan. And isn't the current governor of Oregon a Marine veteran?

As for Stanford & MIT I couldn't tell you.
The VC's arguments are quite sound.

He is not saying he wants to outsource everything, he simply wants the culture of outsourcing in early to make it smoother in the case outsourcing is needed.

I would outsource non-critical areas of your development, like analytic trackers, admin dashboard, deployment scripts, reports, (bug fixing?) so that the core team can focus on listening to the customer and react quickly.

Having to deal with a global team has its benefits and drawbacks. My experience has always been great. Waking up the morning and seeing that progress has been made during the night is an awesome feeling.

Maybe your experience with outsourcing has been a negative one, but even if you disagree with your investor you could still agree to bring an outsourced team to develop second importance stuff to experiment and prove to your investor it is not a good idea to outsource. In the case outsourcing works for your project, you also win.
Certain shop owners fail to realize that managing cash (instead of plastic) is expensive too -- probably even more expensive than AMEX extremely high fees. If you factor in: counterfeited currency, risk of robbery, lost business, trip to bank to deposit/withdraw cash etc,, it's easy to see how expensive managing cash is. Here in Holland i'm actually starting to see shops that only deals with plastic and don't accept cash.
I don't agree that one is unable to do something before somebody files a patent on something. you could have been doing the exact same for years but treating it as a trade secret. of course, in that situation, you can keep doing it in secret. And you could still figure out that solution yourself.

The collective is taking away the individual's rights to get some perceived benefit. I don't think that's a moral act.

I believe in property rights and realize you can't have any sort of economy without them. But is this property? If so, why do you only own it for a limited time?
Like I don't have 4 other browsers than Firefox, plus wget.
If you look at the source, you'll see it is already based on git. C# is just used to glue it all together and provide a GUI.

There isn't much source code there though. It looks more like a proof of concept. I doubt anything is "coming soon" here.
Use sqlite3 as its configuration storage

What a horrible idea.
An even fairer example would be ngnix.conf
I have never known a webpage to have a sexual preference.
I remain sceptical. Latency kills productivity. A desktop application running on the machine in front of you can still have "cloud" functionality provided by cloud-based APIs managed by the vendor. The desktop is not orthogonal to the cloud.

The real advantages of the cloud (when considering the cloud as a "desktop alternative") are a known, homogeneous execution environment, easy installation, updates and maintenance. However, these advantages are all a consequence of the existing ecosystem, not fundamental advantages of the cloud.
Now I just need a time machine...
President Palin? How about Attorney General Cuccinelli? A few minutes with Google should take you to coverage of his views on U. Va.'s research into global warming.
Public college education, which he writes of, has always been subsidized, hasn't it? As I recall from the 1970s, it was about 45% of private college education. Given that the principle is accepted, the question would be whether to extend it to complete coverage.
I suspect it more due to the frustrations of those who bought into Chef, and now suffer a horrible mess of open source unmaintained half broken stuff ... seriously something seems very odd in the Chef community, its like all work has stopped on github ... I wonder if its because so many people have jumped ship to docker?

Obviously I don't condone death threats and other nonsense, but then not sure how seriously I would take an anonymous threat from a nerd ;)
But those are travel restrictions, not restrictions of entry. For Australia it doesn't make a big difference but they still cannot turn away citizens at their borders. They can detain people or quarantine them but not send them back. I'm not sure if there's any country where denying entry to your citizens is legal.
Pretty surprised something like this would make it on the front page of HN. Oh well.
Can we sue them back?

Another vote for Golden Moon here. I have been using them for about 2 years now. Good tea at reasonable prices. Plus when you buy the bigger sizes (once you find the flavors you like in the starter kit) the leftover tins work for random storage containers.

Hey, did you know that pretty much all commercial turkeys can't have sex anymore? We bred their breasts to be too big, so they can't physically penetrate any more. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Broad_Breasted_White

You'll be finding this inhumane and immoral and refusing to eat turkey now, right? Oh, guess not. Weird how that works.
And killed off a sizeable chunk of the population.

Russia until the first world war was one of the fastest growing economies in Europe, though from a low base. So you can't really compare, without a time machine.
Some of us are not fond of the TSA situation, but are vehemently opposed to this site being yet another place on the internet to chat about politics. You can get that elsewhere, but you can't get tech/startups/basically friendly attitude anywhere else I've found so far.
Well, there is the fact that it's link bait.... ;)
