What worked for us was to do two versions of the program at the same time.

Version one had simple functionality. Version two had all the bells and whistles dreamt up by the programmers and the customer while we were working on version one. Those were added to a todo list for version two. They were not implemented in version one.

That kept up the flow of ideas but didn't disrupt the project. It made the programmers feel appreciated while giving us an outline for the next version so our competitors couldn't keep up.

What surprised me was that the whole team got into the spirit of the thing. When someone came to me with an idea, cries of "Version two! Version two!" echoed around the programming room.
This is exactly my thought as well. Not just for institutional money either. This makes it dramatically easier and simpler for retail investors (in both taxable and tax advantaged accounts) to get some exposure to BTC.
Oh, I know about that...
Try Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion by Robert B. Cialdini. Its a very readable text on how bias can be taken advantage of.
We don't have predictable destined behavior either. Even if we think we're mules to brain chemistry, randomness is a thing.
Whose peering agreement with whom lapsed? AFAIK Comcast and Cogent never peered.
Yes, I think your setup might work much better. The DroboFS is supposedly an improved version. And the DroboShare simply isn't a reliable device at all.

Still, after seeing the corruption and after trying their support, I don't think I'll want to buy any more Drobo products ever again.
You're missing the fact that "polymorphism" has an established meaning in C++ which excludes two of your examples. You're using a definition of polymorphism that is independent of C++ and applying it to C++, which is certainly a valid exercise, but you haven't bothered to tell us what your definition is or explain why it applies to each example. If I assume that by "polymorphism" you mean when a single name can be used to refer to different things, then consider the following:

void foo(float f);

int main()
{
foo(1);
return 0;
}

What name is polymorphic here? I suppose you can say that foo is polymorphic if you attribute the coercion operation to foo, but that's not the way I think about it. foo is called after the coercion. The coercion is caused by the relation of the type of 1 with the type of the function parameter f.

In your blog post it would have made things much clearer if you had acknowledged the conventional usage of the term in the context of C++ and explained the different definition you were using.
I think there's always been a drive to make executions look less "barbaric" by using the most technologically advanced methods. Right now that's lethal injection (you'll note it's not just a syringe of poison, but a fancy machine with lots of flashing lights that administers the poison). Before that it was the electric chair, which seemed very high-tech at the time but was probably much crueler than most of the older methods.

So a firing squad seems like a step back to a more barbaric age. Personally I think I'd prefer death by firing squad to death by lethal injection. Staring down the barrels of a bunch of rifles sounds better to me than being poisoned in my sleep.
If you are so stressed out that someone on your team will leave, then you're not doing an adequate job of eliminating single points of failure.
Yes, the questions are targeted to a specific type of startup, although not necessarily one with huge funding.

But the questions don't change drastically in other types of startup either. Maybe some of the financials do, but questions about founders, business fundamentals, metrics that are focused on, how employees are assessed, etc. remain true regardless of whether it's a funded startup, bootstrapped, revenue generating, profitable or otherwise.
I'll stick with my ZFS raidz array. Right now I'm using NexentaStor, but I'm probably going to switch to plain Nexenta soon.
I do object to US currency for having that phrase, since that's an endorsement of religion by the Government itself.

I don't object to the governor's comments, which were made by the Governor as an individual.
No, Naoki isn't a writer at thenextweb.com. The may have republished his own blog post from medium.
What kind of impact would fully switching to this kind of meat would have on hypertrophy?
Woah, I'm honored to have something meet one of my projects! This is pretty neat.

I've thought about syntax highlighting and some other interesting ideas on notepad.cc. Currently, if you add a + to the end of any URL, the font turns monospace.
What a PR disaster. There is something really wrong at Dropbox if this kind of dishonest and abusive behavior is coming from a co-founder.
Yes, there is:

"We have received a notification under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”) __from Dropbox__ that the following material is claimed to be infringing."

Heh. I used those control characters to embed a full text editor within AutoCAD on MS-DOS. Back in the day. Mostly because someone bet me it couldn't be done.
Thanks for the update - while I read your original comment as intended, I could see others having read it differently.
> What do I need to know to build a viable career?

To build any career you need to be a self starter and do your own exhaustive research before bothering others.
If someone from DigitalOcean is reading this, PLEASE, we need a datacenter in Brazil.
The guy I learned about 'mis en place' from had coined a term, "retro-grouch" for people who loudly insist on a nostalgia for old technology.

When the Trough of Disillusionment hits, us old farts pop out of the woodwork to say "see, told you so" whether we were right or wrong.
Well, what did you expect them to use? The built-in system fonts of the user??? :S
Anecdotally, my inbox is filled with spam from google forms. Somehow scammers are convincing google forms to send me an email with their message. I imagine it is difficult for my provider to distinguish spam google forms emails from non-spam.
This would be true if Bitcoin transaction fees put it in reach of every-day transactions, but they don't and likely never will. Bitcoin is for HODLing, not for transacting.
What a sick fuck! He belongs behind bars.
I briefly checked comments and missed that. ;-) I would be more cautious to say that he invented backslashes, as it's unknown that he was aware of earlier uses of backslashes. (I've checked both the page and its citations and they gave no more information.)
Cheap condescending comment. Classic sign of an amoeba-like intelligence.
How do you implement ACLs and other privacy-related transformations in that model?

How would biometrics protect from an authorized party controlling the plane he is supposed to control?
That sounds a lot more complicated than 'eat less'.
I feel bad for wasting honey in the past. I heard a story about a friend of a friend of a friend (...) getting some kind of toxic shock from old honey. That freaked me out. My wife has yelled at me saying honey keeps .. should've listened to her :(
You try to shoot yourself in the foot, but you realize the bullets are of the wrong type. After sawing the bullets to the right size, you attempt to lift your gun, but it takes too much space and blows up.
Love Uber. After using it for over a year, just had my first negative experience this past weekend in SF when the UberX driver had no clue how to get from SOMA to Ocean Beach. I left negative feedback and in a few hours got a response from one of their customer experience folks apologizing for the poor service and refunding my money for the trip. Service like that is why I'll always choose Uber over alternatives like Lyft, Sidecar, etc.
React + Atom have unfortunately similar logos.
I think it's interesting that FB also could own relationships.

With their data they could (though they wouldn't for many reasons) accurately predict who is about to start a relationship with whom, who people are interested in, who is cheating on whom etc.

The cool things you could infer from the data they have available would be a lot of fun to play with.
Note that scammers and spammers are well aware of the cheapest dedicated server providers and love to use them for hit and run attacks.
That often results in subnet ban for the whole provider's datacenter.
Although if you're only after backend hardware resources and not care about SEO, email deliverability and such - then this list is good.

Otherwise be aware.
Seems down?

We're sorry, but something went wrong.

I often hear the excuse that mainstream courses like Algebra and Calculus are taught first and in a boring way because you have to learn mechanics before getting to the good stuff.

However I don't see why they couldn't start a Calc course with one of those cool documentaries on Newton. For me it was incredibly motivating to hear the questions that drove the theory.

Beyond that it seems certain classes like discrete math or combinatorics might allow more creativity and experimentation in secondary school without requiring a ton of foundation.
Slightly off-topic and not about this particular slideshow (which is quite well presented visually)...

Is slideshare.net really useful without hearing the presenters talk about it? This particular slideshow has lots of actionable content on the slides, but in most other presentations I see shared from slideshare.net, a lot of the slides are just images or one word. You get the impression that the presenter used that as an anchor point and then talked about it for a minute or two. But you won't pick that up at slideshare.net, because it's just the slides with no audio accompaniment.

Or am I missing a button that turns on audio presentation?

That said, I'm sorta glad this is a thing, because I'm severely hearing impaired and listening to people talk (especially if they have any sort of non-American accent) is very difficult for me. I just see these shares pop up occasionally on HN or Reddit and I almost always scratch my head about why that got upvoted so much.
Amen to that. There's probably a diagram somewhere to go with that.

Wait.

Here it is. http://www.businessballs.com/treeswing.htm

On a related note; that drivel like this still gets upvoted at HN means either that it's fairly easy to spam with fake accounts, or that the upvoting system lets a lot of crap through.
If you turn off paging with `Pry.pager = false` it should work fine i think.
Yes, there are a lot of people who seem not to have read the site's guidelines (which include "no politics"), but that doesn't make it appropriate or right. Please let Hacker News be what it is. There are hundreds of sites for political axe grinding.
if we're talking about the murder of thousands of innocent people, investigating about this thing matters all the more.. just because it's not likely, doesn't mean it's impossible.. 'proofs are lacking on both sides' isn't conclusive to rule out that possibility..

saw an interesting documentary about this 9/11 stuff from zeitgeist:

It's more of a long term investment
I'd do some more in depth checks. I find it very hard to believe you're cpu bound within NIO itself.

I do around 1k req/s per cpu and never see load avg above 0.5

>> "re-establish their connection back to the servers each time they receive a message or navigate to another page (or reload the page). This end up taking a big toll on the system. We're to some extent limited to how fast we can perform accept() on our sockets."

I'd expect what you're seeing is the overhead of your system creating new objects initializing requests etc rather than anything low level.

(Mibbit uses keep alive long polling XHR / websocket, using custom app server in Java +NIO)
I'm guessing behavioral economists would be lapping this one up if they were given the cash to do so, but then we'd actually have some empirical proof about policy - politicians prefer to just rant for votes - far cheaper and easier to manipulate...

Yea, power always concentrates up - seemingly because coordination costs get cheaper as the pool of people decreases in size.
6. Not simplifying complex queries through views

Number 6 needs to be used with discretion.

When you reference a complex view, you are in essence making use of a stored query snippet -- there is no magic to the view, and unless you've materialized it (which is very rare), there is no efficiency advantage. All it really is is code sharing.

So what's the problem then?

The problem then is that the query analyzer has to assume that you actually care about every element of said view, every returned column, every spurious join. I've dealt with too many performance problems where people made use of an overly generous view that invalidated most indexes, removed the potential for covering indexes (the #1 most important performance element of a database), and did a lot of joins that were irrelevant to the usage.
Here is a blog post on Tropo's blog that explains how to use NuGram Server from Tropo.

You can't take the American labor force's NAIRU and apply it to college grads--historically, they have lower unemployment.
Currency devaluation is a tax on savers and a tax cut for debtors. So there is one group of people that is surreptitiously taxed and another one that is surreptitiously bailed out. Since the US is a net debtor nation, the Fed and the government creating inflation amounts to a net tax relief for the US population.
If you accept that any of your instances can go down at any time, you accept the fact all of them can be down at one (the same) time.

You might think your safe with reserved instances too, thinking you've reserved the dedicated time with EC2. Well what happens when the entire network stack goes down or block storage the reserved instance rack depends on goes down? So does all 10 or 20 reserved instances you had up, at once.

Also, it was this very replication/snapshot mirroring feature of EBS that cascaded into (network,etc) congestion.

dear coffeescript,

thank you for =>
I can't speak for nvictor, but I think the headline equates a lack of promotion with walking away from web apps altogether. Perhaps "Apple's web app directory spends one quarter unmaintained" would have been less sensational. But, then, that would place all of the content in the headline and all you'd need is a tweet.
I used to always run into trouble when trying to use 'this' inside a closure defined within an object's method.

Now, I just put

var that = this;

at the top of very method and use 'that' everywhere in the function.
yeah!

I updated my profile.

It's banehn and I'm on gmail.
One problem is that no format would solve the "who's in the room with you problem". You still need some kind of backend for that.

You could see a future though where you go into one portal and you're in Minecraft, and you go into another and you're playing tennis with your buddy in Europe. Games would just be new portals -- the key here is that it's hosted by different companies, not Meta.

Twitter could charge people $12/yr to be able to combine those tweets, and other $12/yr to be able to see the combined version. People would pay.
It looks like CountyComm sold out. I remember the type items being different (actual mil-spec over-run type of stuff), and now it looks like they're just selling tacti-cool things now.

They didn't use to have Twitter or Facebook share buttons on their comments (did they even have comments?), they didn't have a "VIP" program, carbon fiber combs, glow-in-the-dark patches that say "operator", etc.

Good for them I guess, but oh well. I guess I'll never buy that Universal Cleaning Stick from them now.
Put some tracker on so you can see traffic growth over time, and who is linking to you. I suspect putting ads on helps your search ranking but who knows.
I don't really like arguing back and forth, but the way I read that is he is describing calculations in QM, not the "why" behind QM. QM is not a mystery in calculationally, it is a mystery in interpretation.

The generalization of probability theory to include "negative" probabilities, really, amplitudes is just the method in quantum mechanics. It's like knowing what a derivative is to obtain exponential population growth. That's just mathematics. No one says people who have solved dN/dt=aN predict that bacteria will grow exponentially, it's just how a system acts like that would behave, and we found an example.

But, I've thought a little more about it, I think my original comment was touching a personal bias more than making an argument. I asked, "why does the time evolution operator have to be on a fock space and why do P and X commute like ~i?" I'm not sure physics can answer beyond that at this point, since it matches experiment, we should or could just accept it the way it is.

May be there is no "deeper" reason after all.
As much as I appreciate being called a "financial moron", I think you may have missed the point of my comment. The whole point, in regards to OP's question, is that equity is SUPPOSED to motivate a team to get to Facebook levels.

If you took 10m of funding and exited for 100m your VCs will NOT be happy, they need you to hit it out of the park to balance out all the losers in their portfolio. Similarly, your engineers who are taking less-than-competitive wages should not be happy, your founders should not be happy. Everybody's interests should be aligned, and focused on getting spectacular returns, not simply good ones.

We're saying the same thing. It's either worth a TON of money, in very very rare cases, or it's really not worth considering as part of your compensation package. Getting even a 6-figure cashout after taking a 5-figure paycut for 10 years isn't necessarily even a break-even for you. You might have LOST money on that deal. As such, the equity is NOT there (and shouldn't be interpreted) as a cash-like form of compensation. It is not that. It is motivation for you to get the company to Facebook status. That's all it is. So, back to OP's question: why give so little? Because if the company gave you more, you would be tempted to build a 100m company, and that's just not gonna cut it. Instead, many companies would rather motivate a larger group of people to want it to be a Facebook-level enterprise someday.
That sounds fine... until you turn your head and jerk your headphones out.
What is the goal of education?

I would submit one aspect is imparting knowledge to people in order to improve their potential.

Another aspect, depending on the type of education, is simply building better people.

Seems to me, that's making. Making better people with more potential.

It's all in the framing kids.
Seems people are misunderstanding what wingmen and pick up artists are all about. Sure, some of them can be quite disgusting and almost inhumane the way they treat women but a majority of them in my opinion found PUA as an answer to a socially awkward nerds problem of not being able to even talking to women, let alone gain a women's attraction. It's all about projecting confidence and learning how to make small talk and being yourself, not giving women a false projection.
The case you cite is under previous legislation that is highly pertinent and alters the reasoning. The judgement is from 1951. In-or-around 1980s (? can't remember exactly) the US signed up to the Berne Convention and so joined the majority of the rest of the world in not requiring registration to acquire copyright protection.

In the judgement [which I only skimmed the first page or two of] is this:

>'It is of course true that the publication of a copyrightable "work" puts that "work" into the public domain except so far as it may be protected by copyright. That has been unquestioned law since 1774;2 and courts have often spoken of it as a "dedication" by its "author or proprietor."'

Which is not true any longer. Production of a work now acquires copyright (eg under TRIPs) which publication in itself can not forfeit nor dispose of.

Similarly in the judgement it is clear that under the past regime affixation of a copyright notice was required. This is a central element to the case it seems.

Because of the central features relying on specifics of the law that no longer apply it seems there is very little if anything in this judgement that would bind, or indeed inform, a present day decision.

>You really are apparently neither a lawyer nor a photographer //

Hmm. You might be a photog, I'm guessing not.

FWIW I am neither.
I wish I could downvote your cult BS falsehoods but I can't.
Thanks, I appreciate the link. Unfortunately none of this is all that deep.

As others have pointed out, the advice is trite and often short sighted. There are many things that one may love to do that simply aren't rewarded monetarily by our current economic system.
Capitalism doesn't fuel everything. People do things for lots of reasons outside of money or generating surplus.

The problem isn't social norms. The problem is untethered capitalism allows concentrations of wealth and power with no check on it. Those capitalists then stoke fascism to retain power once material conditions have decayed enough due to that concentration of wealth.
Hot take: bad people claim to use whatever economic system is most politically convenient, and use whatever economic system is most practically convenient, for them to stay in power.
Thanks for your suggestion.

Of the 16 linked papers/book-chapters a few were not freely accessible.

Of the ones that were accessible, 3 contain the string "surveil" in the body and 1 contains it in the bibliography. None of the references were helpful unfortunately.

Do you have any other links that may answer the question?
There's only 2/3 top universities (if you are being generous, 1 if honest) that are match worldwide here (have people doing substantial research, funding valuable companies or just working in FANGs) producing around 100 graduates per year (combined). This gives me some ballpark estimate.
