Ask HN: Would you advise me on how to move forward my startup project?
I am working on a startup project full-time. I failed already a succession of iterations after 4 months and I quite recently started with a brand new idea (I had 6 years ago). It's all about food, diet and health. For this new try, I managed to not write code for the moment (I am a dev) and I am focusing on having as many people as possible interviewed. After 40+ interviews, the problem is I get really little value from my interviews and nothing like an early adopter. I am french and I live in a little city and I start to question myself about 2 things. Is there any early adopters where I live and would I be able to interview anybody relevant by just randomly targetting 1st and 2nd level friends/family. Any advices welcomed.

MATAERIAL - first method of 3D printing in the air
http://mataerial.com
The method is interesting because it prints 3D curves, not 2D layers. This is awesome because 3D lines can actually follow stress lines of the shape.

It allows to print on any surface, even on walls and ceilings.

Moreover, the extrusion process is not affected by gravity as in other method that need gravity to adhere layers and thus it can be used even in space.

Even though the prototype shown on the website is quite far from immediate practical application, the potential seems to be very promising.

Hi everyone,

I've been working with PyScript these past days. I believe it has the potential to be a very powerful learning tool, so I've been working on creating interactive cookbooks/cheat sheets that people can use as a reference when learning how to use popular Python libraries.

You can get the code or contribute here: https://github.com/dylanjcastillo/python-dataviz-cookbook/

Or check another interactive cheat sheet I made: https://pandas.dylancastillo.co/

An Open Call for Widget Jargon Standards.
http://dbreunig.tumblr.com/post/30819144
Unlike desktop apps, social network widgets have several user POVs. After one too many extended meetings, I'm proposing that the following jargon be adopted. Users can be referred to as:

- Tom: a user with the widget installed.
- Dick: Tom's friend with the widget installed.
- Harry: Tom's friend without the widget installed.

Hopefully that'll add some consistency. Thoughts?

GWT Java benchmarks, Java SE7 vs GWT+JavascriptVM (no multimedia)
http://thegoodcodeinn.blogspot.it/2013/02/gwt-benchmarks-gwtjsvm-vs-javavm.html
GWT (Google Web Toolkit) is a tool for compiling Java into JavaScript code; with GWT you can write both your web application and your server side code using the Java language.

What about Google Web Toolkit performance?

I have worked with GWT in the recent years and a simple question has arisen:
"What is the performance of the same Java code when running inside the Java virtual machine VS running inside the browser?"

I have decided to do a bunch experiments and write this article after taking in account these facts:
1)GWT developers state that the generated JavaScript code may be better than the handwritten one.
2)V8 JavaScript Engine and the other JavaScript engines have been highly improved in the recent years

It also makes sense to measure the perormance of GWT applications running on different browsers, Firefox, Opera, Chrome, Explorer in order to see who sucks and who rules.

I think that these results may be useful from a distribuited High Perfomance Computing perspective (via web client).

These benchmark covers numeric and data crunching and string manipulation; Multimedia and rendering are not benchmarked.

Have fun!

Verizon To Switch Many Rural Landlines to Frontier Communications
Crap!

I just received an email from Verizon. They say my new ISP on July 1 will become Frontier Communications. I don't know if this means my phone service as well. (I'll call in the morning to find out.)

Does anyone know the good and the bad with this? I mean, what's the response time if my Internet goes down? Will they filter and throttle my Internet differently than Verizon? Will my rates shoot up? These are things that worry me.
Preventing Retirement Shock
http://www.401ksource.info/blog/628431-preventing-retirement-shock
Have you ever in your life chatted with a person who seem to acts like it's a death sentence when speaking about retirement? For most the concept of no longer working and moving down into the actual retirement together with much less everyday tasks is actually terrifying and something to fear. That is why a large part of pension planning involves getting emotionally ready for the retirement so there isn’t an enormous shock when suddenly you are a person of leisure.

What was the name of that Search Engine Startup?
Hey guys.

A few years ago, I believe it was 2009 or 2010, there was a Search Engine startup that got pretty hyped in several tech outlets. All I remember from it was from an interview where one of the founders said something like: "There's the public data that you can find through Google, and then there's your data that google can't find".

It was basically a search engine for locating your files, (personal or work) across multiple cloud services such as facebook, gmail, hotmail or whatever.

What was the name of it?

Thanks!

Ask HN: Updating ML Models for changing market conditions?
I'm wondering what ML teams across companies who are building/updating models to make them perform well in volatile markets too? Especially if the predictions of the model might be directly impacted by a changed market? Some of my models were built with data over the last 10 years which was a bull market. For example, using sales data from 2010-2020 (but not using any financial/macro economic data directly as features). Any advice for best practices to update such models to make their predictions valid even in uncertain market conditions? Thanks in advance!

Corporate Debt Safer Than Treasuries
http://chaselanc.com/post/7831027907
If the U.S. is downgraded, there could be a handful of companies that would boast a higher credit rating than the U.S. Four major companies (Microsoft, Johnson & Johnson, Exxon and Automatic Data Processing) have a AAA rating from both S&P and Moody’s. Could corporations like these become the go-to safe haven for investors in distressed times? Based on the credit default swaps, these companies have a lower chance of default than the U.S. The swaps currently imply 0.75% cumulative chance of default for the U.S. over the next 5 years. Compare that to MSFT (0.7%), Exxon (0.5%) and J&J (0.35%). These cash rich corporations do not suffer from the political logjam currently plaguing our country’s economy. The U.S. runs the risk of not using its available resources to pay off its obligations, but there is no concern that these companies will miss coupon payments or principal repayments simply because they don’t want to.
