Apple attempting to redefine Pro with FCPX
http://interchangeproject.org/2011/07/05/apple-attempting-to-redefine-pro-and-usability-with-fcpx/
"Apple genuinely thinks that FCPX is a better piece of software than FCP7. It has the best technological foundation of any video editing software out there and is built for the 64-bit, multi-core, OpenCL world we are now entering. It is certainly more Pro than FCP7 in terms of technology and speed, and in many ways that’s how Apple is defining Pro.

Looking at the new FCP, it seems fairly clear to me that Apple wants FCPX to be a solid foundation that works for most people’s video editing needs. If you need more power or more features, Apple is pointing you in the direction of third-party plugins. It’s very clear from Apple’s literature about FCPX that third-party plugins are meant to bridge many of the gaps missing from FCPX."

How to (and Not To) Do What You Love – Dyske.com
http://dyske.com/paper/1071
"...you might love photography but photography as a business might not be viable for you. Instead of giving it up and getting a job as a salesman to finance photography as a hobby, think deeper about why you love photography, what aspects of it you love. ... After all, photography is a relatively modern invention. What would you have done if you were born 200 years ago when photography did not exist? You cannot be so inflexible."

Transactions made on Amazon.com are unsecure says HDFC Bank
So I'm from India. I had signed up for AWS Lambda preview. A few days back Amazon got back to me saying that I was invited. I tried to use but, but it again asked me to join the waiting list. I called up Amazon and they told me that my account must have a valid Payment method. I tried to add my debit card and HDFC bank declined the authorizing transaction. So now I spoke to HDFC customer care about it and here is their reply:

"Dear Mr. Xxxxxx,

Thank you for your patience and cooperation.

This is with reference to your e-mail regarding
: "Re: 'HBL=xxxx-xxxx-xxxxx' Debit card".

Please note Amazon.com is an unsecured site hence the transactions done on this website will get declined

Warm Regards,
xxxx xxxxx

HN Script To Easily View Karma From Comments Page
https://gist.github.com/anonymous/5607831
I just whipped up this tampermonkey script up after getting mildly annoyed with having to navigate to a user's profile page to view his or her karma.

This allows you to hover over a username to make an XHR request to the profile page. The karma will be parsed out and inserted as a new <span> element directly to the right of the username.

On Chrome, just install the tampermonkey extension and then this script. I'm sure it would work on FF with Greasemonkey too with little or no modification.

Ask HN: How important is it for a site to have its own custom search?
http://www.searchreddit.com/
The link goes to a quick site a reddit user created to "solve" the persistent meme of "reddit search sucks". This brings up a larger question as to why so many companies seem to want to control search on their site with custom rolled search systems.

The question about this is, why doesn't reddit just do this? Why don't other sites do this?

It's free, the search quality is very good, and there is no cost for infrastructure, DBAs, developers, etc.

Show HN: App to hide sensitive information while screen share
https://www.blurscreen.app
Hi everyone let me tell you a story, Back 1 year ago I made a blurweb.app as a way to hide sensitive information while I screen share while making youtube videos

Blurweb app worked well but because it is a browser extension it was limited to hiding stuff on the web, after multiple requests I finally decided to launch a desktop app with the same purpose.

The result is blurscreen.app which helps you hide sensitive info on the screen with a single click.

The plan is to improve the app making it better to solve the issue of hiding sensitive info while screen sharing.

I will really appreciate it if you check out the demo video I made on the homepage and let me know if you find it helpful in the comments

Larry Page And Sergey Brin discuss the history and workings of Google (2003)
http://www.npr.org/2003/10/14/167643282/google-founders-larry-page-and-sergey-brin-part-2
My favorite part of this interview starts at 13:45 when Terry Gross (the host) mentions that she typed "Google" into Google and clicked "I'm Feeling Luck" and "it didn't do anything."

This leads to Sergey eventually trying to explain recursion and idempotentence on national radio.

Ask HN: Any recommendations on a modern/good set theory book?
I've been hunting for a quality textbook on elementary set theory for about a year without much success. What I'm looking for is a modern text that covers subject matter from first principles save perhaps logic. Out of the many books I looked at I bought the following three:

1. "Set Theory: A First Course" by Daniel Cunningham: this book is a good reference book but makes too many assumptions to teach yourself set theory. I actually had to buy this one twice since Amazon didn't deliver the first!

2. "Elements of Set Theory" by Herbert Enderton: This book is actually not too bad and I may have to default to it if I find nothing better. This book however is ancient and I'll have to buy a physical copy because the math symbols were drawn before TeX was invented.

3. "Naive Set Theory" by Paul Halmos: This book was complete garbage hands down, no more needs to be said.

In addition to those three books, there were many that obviously were either too brief in coverage of the subject matter and assumed much too fast or I was unable to find previews in able to judge their quality and thus decided against the gamble to buy.

Is set theory even taught in college? I've been through the major educational publisher's catalogs and couldn't find anything on set theory other than #1 from Cambridge. The best book so far wasn't even about set theory, it was MIT's phonology textbook by Bale and Reiss (which I highly recommend, easily one of the best textbooks I've ever come across).

If set theory really is the foundation of modern mathematics you would think there would be a decent textbook on the subject. I would have posted this question to math.stackexchange but what I've learned is that, at least for mathematicians, seem to recommend either books that are arcane, obscure, or are way too advanced to be useful for the user whom is asking the question.

So HN, I'm desperate and could use any recommendations offered, thanks!

Show HN: JoinBase – Creates an Unprecedented Database for IoT Era
https://joinbase.io/benchmark/
I am the founder of this database product. A fundamental curiosity in my heart is, after tens years of development, can the bottom layer of the common-users-accessible database still develop?

JoinBase, is my initial answer to this question.

1. For the first time, it proposes the evolution of the database from the user's point of view.

New tech concepts such as cloud navtive, or HTAP or datalake are no longer encouraged to be consumed. What users want may be just a easy-to-use, efficient data tool that fits.

2. For the first time, it well supports three DB payload types in a single engine of a free industrial-grade database: TP single row transcation write, TP and AP read.

If you don't need complex transcation, it can meet almost of your needs in the domain.

3. For the first time, it is so fast that for most businesses, it is no longer necessary to use a distributed database for their data needs.

Any suggestions, questions and comments are welcome. I answer online.

Gawker Media and others downed by Sandy
http://www.criticalaesthetic.com/gawker-media-and-others-downed-by-sandy/
Reports come pouring in about Hurricane Sandy and the massive problems it has wrought so far. From what I can gather, if you are on the East Coast you're either getting completely devastated by this storm or it has passed you over gracefully leaving windy vengeance for another day. NYC is blacked out for the most part, a crane dangles from the rooftops. I will definitely be looking at the NY Post tomorrow.

Watching the internet weather report, most networks still seem to be chugging along, but an upshot in packet loss never means good things. Sites like NY Times and WNYC.org are still chugging along (I assume they're hosted with servers in New York based on little to no evidence of my own because I am lazy) but I noticed many sites in the Gawker family are having issues loading. How will I get by without a constant deluge of gaming news or the latest on sci-fi robohookers who play sports? Incidentially, Conde Nast is still afloat.

Heroku has been issuing warnings about potential outages since bad weather has befallen them before. AWS looks to be very healthy.

The internet will be A-OK through and through, but it is still incredible to me that the largest stock exchange in the world has gone quiet in anticipation of Sandy, bowing in reverence to the awesome power of a force larger than finance. We will see what the morning brings.
Thoughts on my site ?
