Keep different lists for tasks requiring different levels of focus and/or prep.

My job has a mix of rote work and analytical work so I try to switch between them to maximize my focused time without fatiguing too much.
I just got my haircut after listening to this, and it was creepily similar.
Multiple? One is quite sufficient: hack the control channel, and you have a plane to play with.
GO/NOGO isn't good enough.

I need to know how much it will cost to park there, and how long I can stay in that spot. Do the rules change if I have a resident parking permit? etc.
They seem neither one sided nor zero-volume. The spout simply is routed through the bottom instead of coming out the top. It may be more "smooth" than a wine bottle, but if this zero volume then a wine bottle also must have zero volume, putting the spout somewhere else, and making the spout concave instead of convex, doesn't change this.
He was REALLY good at getting management signoff for expenses and subcontrating... that is an incredibly valuable skill to have, to be sure, but it sucks if it's one-sided (other projects had such requests denied).

He personally did very little programming or designing himself (I guess that does make him a good manager :) )
Indeed, I thought he was going to make an excellent presales consultant or sales guy, he was wasted at a "junior programmer" position. He vastly exceeded my expectations.

That kind of skills are pretty good for a CEO, I'll give you that.

But I've seen another CEO at work with the same general style (oodles of charisma, very strong networker, no studies or technical background) and he really messes up technical and financial decisions, he basically has to blindly believe whatever his CFO or CIO say (and the CIO messed up pretty often, the CFO seems pretty solid OTOH).

An actual example: he spent an entire meeting speaking about returns on "bonuses", buying "bonuses", etc.. when he meant "bonds" (he was blindly parroting what the CFO told him, only he messed up).
Computer rooms are still loud today and were much louder ages ago. I am not even counting the band printers and such that still exist in many shops.

Back in the late 80s I remember working on what we termed the "Lost in Space" computer. I think it was one of the first models Burroughs created that did not use tubes; the military loved to keep things forever; and it just made all sorts of interesting sounds.

As for robots and silence, oh I am quite sure that some military planners have ideas for giving some special sounds just to inspire fear
I think Dropbox uploads diffs instead of the entire file based on the speed of synchronization of my yojimbo database.
At least under ZSH (on Ubuntu), I don't appear to have the HISTCONTROL environment variable set and yet it still ignores anything prepended with a space.
which is NOT "free movies"

I call bullshit. That's exactly the case, as I've heard it plenty of times. Freedom from the joke that is DVD + "Digital Copy" is what I want freedom from. Not so much the case with the bulk of other people. Plenty like to pull out these types of oh-so-plausible ideological rationalizations when pressed, but p2p is largely accounted for by "I want it and I don't give a fuck."
I am not saying Apple should eliminate its curating process altogether, but rather that it shouldn't dictate the existence of an application solely based on competitive conflicts it has with the information within it. It is clearly an action of insecurity and selfishness on Apple's part. I could also argue that constraining and dictating information based on one's views can also lead to anarchy.
Another Australian guy did similar: Reg Speirs

Yeah, I unfortunately finally gave up the headphone jack. My phone broke and I couldn't find a good phone that had wireless charging, a headphone jack and a micro SD card slot. I went with the S20 FE since it had 2 of them. The budget galaxys seem have headphone and mcicro sd but not wireless charging. I almost bought an old S10 since that's the last galaxy with all three, but figured since it'd be losing update support soon I had better pick which feature to lose.

I'm kind of regretting it already. I don't have portable bluetooth headphones right now, had to order some and I kept wanting headphones over the weekend since they haven't arrived yet.

I was kind of leaning towards and LG, but everyone online was saying this was going to happen soon.

They now know you have a Facebook account and can use that to extrapolate your username using the Account Recovery feature of Facebook.

"But I don't want to pay taxes because they don't benefit me directly. And why would I pay for schools with my property taxes, I don't have kids". I've been surprised at how much prevalent this line of thinking is in the US as opposed to my home country.
This is a technology demonstration of a novel robotics system build using many off-the-shelf parts, on a planet with night-time temperatures as low as -130F [1].

Ingenuity survived, literally, a first freezing night. That is an accomplishment by itself, and is hardly sensationalist.

Totally fair!

In a market that is very saturated with feature-rich services, I want to do something narrow, and address a specific need. It makes it easier for me to rely on certificate transparency, as I'm adding new hosts automatically, without risking noisy notifications. I wouldn't want an uptime service to glob whatever hosts it finds in my domain just to tell me they go down, or don't respond to HTTP. But an SSL cert is either served, and has an upcoming expiration date, or isn't served - in which case I'll never alert about it :)
In line with many comments on the article you mentioned, though, the "1099 Economy" is mostly just wallpaper over high unemployment (nobody will hire me, might as well try something on my own) and companies like Uber and Postmates misclassifying their workers.

I do strongly agree however that the Fortune 500 shouldn't dictate what gets taught in schools.
For that kind of volume and the fact that it's basically "set it and forget it" to a single recipient, I'd be tempted to slap a Postfix server into an auto-scaling group, configure the rules internally, validate with your AWS rep that you're not going to smack face-first into their port 25 limits, and call it a day.

I hate running mailservers, but this is such a simple use case that I'd have a hard time dealing with the complexity of a new vendor relationship for such a direct use case.
Elevated levels can cause calcium buildup and kidney stones.

Yes, but what does that mean in terms of dosage? I'm typing from memory, so look this stuff up yourself, but IIRC, one study found that 5000 IU daily resulted in about 50 ng/mL blood serum levels in average weight people, and 10000 IU daily resulted in a bit over 100 ng/mL. Harmful effects are seen just over 200 ng/mL.

I am not a doctor, and this isn't medical advice.
A bit of HN pedantry - Spotify uses CEF (Chrome Embedded Framework) and not Electron.
Back when they were still moderately important publications, Time and Newsweek were probably similar although more US-centric and mainstream. But similar in that they tended to draw from the Ivies and other establishment schools. Likely significant overlap with the Times and the Post.
You can trust me on this one, as I've seen this process in the past in this kind of company and from the right vantage point: it stopped at "is it bringing us more revenue within the strategy we outlined for the next X years?".

Uber has all the resources needed to implement this, they don't need to outsource, they don't need to commission studies, they have all they need upfront because it's the same skills and resources that make them money now. If they saw an opportunity they wouldn't have left money on the table.
Edit: I’m dumb. I need to read all of the ruling and then research what fair-use really means.

Again I’m not a lawyer and I know there’s nuance and precedent in the law I just am having a hard time with the seemingly obvious-ness of this case.

Some examples to share how I am thinking of this:

1. Procuring land, paying contractors, buying materials, etc., doesn’t entitle you to rents in perpetuity on say an apartment you build?

Or 2. if I produce music — until that music ages out and becomes a public good — and I own the masters and all the rights to it having put in the work and the time and the money etc., am I not entitled to all the fees from licensing it to be played and consumed?

I am having a hard time seeing how it’s not a sound argument given that it seems very clear that Sun Microsystems put in a lot of work and effort and time and money to get Java off the ground and here Google comes and copies it even when there was an easy way to get a license.
> but my feedback is that they should have waited until they were closer to their goal and general feedback would be more valuable than hundreds of copies of "it doesn't work".

This is the exact opposite of useful feedback. I hope you realise project that is literally intended for fun...

Do you think "cool" is some property you can measure with an instrument? Cool is whatever we decide is cool.

Society can and does change. Part of his FIRST pitch that resonated with me: 100 years ago Thomas Edison was a cultural hero -- The Wizard of Menlo Park -- delivering miracle inventions year after year. About the same time James Naismith nailed up a peach basket in a gym and called it basketball. Today kids can recite Kobe Bryant's stats in detail yet have no idea who invented the MRI. What do we want the world to look like 100 years from now?
If this technology becomes more widespread, I would expect to see people wearing clothing in public that covers their faces: hoods, hats, and thick sunglasses. I've heard the widespread presence of surveillance cameras cited as one reason for the popularity of hoodies in London. People can adapt to this type of technology without too large of a disruption to their lifestyle.

In some ways it would be nice because it would make it would make it more socially acceptable to walk around with your face concealed. Many people would prefer to do this so they can leave their house and still avoid unwanted social contact.
Frankly, talking to customers isn't nearly as stressful as interviews.

Are you having a bad day?

You are suggesting using screen space for the use case of a new user. Some people optimize for people that are already familiar with the program.

Both are valid options, so it's a bit silly to criticize just because it's not your preferred use case.

Respectfully disagree about Reddit. I am not at all ideologically aligned with HN people, but somehow the ones I'm supposed to be aligned with on Reddit are so much more annoying, because of all the reasons that I usually critique as facile: echo chambers, complete lack of anything resembling objectivity, etc.

I think it’s ok to separate what one approves of or doesn’t approve of, from a separate axis of looking at what causes objective harm and misery to people.

Some of the hardest policy topics involve accepting things one finds distasteful because there is a moral ground for people being allowed to do what they want, and vice versa.

Your point on cannabis is certainly an excellent example of how to get policy wrong and create a huge net harm to society, especially in the US where late night TV hosts can joke about getting high, while 8 million others were arrested and harassed for possession over the last decade.

In my experience, from what I’ve learned from my friends who work with rough sleepers, all sex work is exploitative of those in desperation to some extent. It’s a spectrum that has at one end people trying to make ends meet, and at the other, slavery and trafficking.

I know of attempts to unionize and protect some kinds of sex work, but I don’t know if that represents the majority or a vocal and comparatively unexploited minority. It’s never the most exploited that you see in a debate arguing for complete legalization.

It’s easy to see both sides of an argument. It’s difficult and important to focus on where harm is being done, and to do something about that. For something with as rocky a history as prohibition has, I’m in favor of the arguments for it when it comes to sex work, and to my original point — to try to drag this back on topic! — it’s an example of required action to step in where the free market fails to protect the most vulnerable from harm.

Edit: and it’s stories like this $1 voyeur hotel that really add positively to thought on the subject. A really good non-tech HN submission, imho.
I have the feeling that if you drive down the cost of bandwidth, the businesses that rely on it will say "Thank you" and change nothing, merely pocketing the bigger margin themselves.

The number of ads isn't proportional to bandwidth cost, it's about what their research shows they can get away with.
what would be interesting to me see in a court of law is instances where there is a recovery option. if the challenge/responses are not freely given would the courts permit guessing based upon known information about the accused in order to reset the password?

second, how many recovery processes actually protect the challenge/response information and even require it to generate a new password?

now this won't work for devices secured by password that don't have an outside reset but for online accounts want prevents law enforcement from spoofing the system?
I think 5 years isn't necessarily a bad estimate for full self-driving cars, but I'm very skeptical that is in all traffic conditions, operating with mostly human drivers, in all road "structures", and especially in all weather conditions.

Does anyone here have some experience with Tesla's Auto Pilot on snowy roads? Do Teslas have camera that try to read speed limit signs? If so has there been any problems when the signs were mostly or completely covered with snow? How does Auto Pilot do on ice?
Yacht nav systems can log where you have been, but a small minority of ships will permanently log their location somewhere publicly accessible. To get the data you'd need to get onto the yacht to access the nav system.
> Or work near where you can afford to live? If there aren't jobs that support living there, live somewhere else? You're presenting an absurd dichotomy.

And what happens when there's no jos where you live, and the only places where jobs exist have extreme housing shortages? You can spend hours commuting each day, but then you're probably burning just as much money through gas - not to mention destroying the environment.
Patience. People do care, but it can take a while to reach them.

This one has been the case for years. Even when the technical capabilities were only at theoretical level, any criminal with some brain used to switch off their phones+ take out batteries before even having any discussions, not to mention commiting crimes. Today's phones can't be used anywhere in any context if people are involved in some criminal activities.

I'm in a similar situation. I will soon working from a satellite office. Few to none of my new office mates will actually work on my team. I won't receive "welcome to the team" introductions and none of my office mates will have shared work topics to discuss.

Some Google cafeterias have tables labeled for people interested in meeting new people. Lunch can be easier when you know that anyone sitting at those tables is open to new people joining their conversations.
I'll grant that this article is light on evidence, but it can be true that every country has a worse immigration policy than the US, and that people tend to return to their home countries to start their businesses. Because every country tends to treat its own citizens better than it treats immigrants. I thought that this was the point of the article. Most of the points that you raise have to do comparing immigration policies with one another, rather than comparing immigration policies with domestic policies.

Also, I (and I imagine many supporters of open immigration in the US) would certainly argue that every country should be friendlier to immigrants, not just the US. The whole world is terrible on immigration and getting worse.

The issue is not who has the least bad immigration policy. It's not getting people to immigrate here as opposed to immigrate to other countries. The issue is making our immigration policy good enough to make it preferable to immigrate here as opposed to not immigrate at all, which is the real danger.
This does seem a bit afield for HN, but since it is being discussed here are a few relevant links:

http://www.businessinsider.com/exclusive-qa-arrington-says-t...

Michael Arrington gave an interview to the Business Insider today where he discusses this issue, and also raises the (legitimate) point that conflicts of interest in journalism go beyond monetary investment and touch on personal relationships between journalists and the subjects they choose to write about.

http://www.siliconvalleywatcher.com/mt/archives/2011/04/like...

Veteran tech journalist Tom Foremski spells out the more traditional objection to journalists investing in the industry they cover:

"It's about protecting a trusted relationship between reader and reporter, and equally important, reporter and source."

Though typical story of any company/person that assumes a framework are great for their problem, product, not realising what and what not happens in the background.

I started moving a large API we had built on MVC4 over to using WebAPI 2 beta and the attribute routing is amazing. Nancy looks to have similar conventions as far as routing goes but one thing I just couldn't get working properly was authentication. With WebAPI I found it more intuitive to have [SomeCustomAPIAuthenticationAttribute] on controller class and have it look for either an active session (for our browser javascript ajax calls) or if it has none then for an ApiKey (for our mobile apps) in the post data and look up to make sure the api key is valid.

Nancy is cool and i'd definitely consider using it in the future but for now, it was easier to port over our api from MVC4 to a much more familiar structure.

That's not a problem with node where you can easily implement a distributed queue system.The job queue processes will block but not your web server.

He did cancel the job, at the end, but it sounded like he wanted to investigate the hack for fun, when he came across it.

Not a good general/continuing policy, but maybe worth doing the first time, if you're interested.
The most free world is not the one where there are the fewest restrictions. Restricting peoples' natural freedom to kill each other or steal from each other, for example, arguably makes everyone more free. The GPL is based on the same principle. Restricting certain antisocial behavior increases net freedom.
I think Ethereum is silly too. But you have to realize that their argument is "we'll make our own contracts, and what the computer says is the absolute truth - no judges or kings."

In that world, there is no such thing as stealing. If the crypto transfered, it was allowed to transfer by the contract.

The part that "true believers" are meant to hate is that now, someone on one side of the contract is grasping back to Money 1.0 concepts of conceptual ownership and meeting-of-the-minds type contracts. This enforcement action shows that the government thinks of Ethereum et al in this way too. And therefore the crypto paradise dream is dead.
