I made something like this awhile ago, it's not as nicely done though: http://wall.bot.nu/ (wait till the red cursor scrolls all the way to the bottom)
It's cute to see someone's intelligence being insulted in a syntactically ill-formed sentence.
Thank you. It doesn't have a good traction but I'm getting good feedbacks. It was something I needed from time to time. I was saying "I wish there was something like this" when I'm searching for Ruby gems.

For example; there are two popular gems for Github API. "octokit.rb" and "github_api", readme doesn't give enough information I need. I want to know what people think about that gems. That was my motivation so I built it :)

> How is this better then say submitting the repository to HN and discussing it here?

I will create a Chrome plugin which will embed Gitcussion comments to the Github page of the repository. Actually, that was my MVP.

You can think Gitcussion as Product Hunt for Github repositories.
They're not expecting a professional with all of that. They probably don't know what they're asking and just copied and pasted acronyms from another job openings.

You should be skeptical with jobs requiring both coding skills and artistic ones. Photoshop is a nice tool, but hardly a requirement for a web developer. Same for Flash nowadays.

Focus on core web technologies: HTTP, HTML, CSS and Javascript for browsers. These will give you strong background to understand more technologies and tools.
> I wonder how such a messy base offers such stability ...

By not solving problems like hibernation.
These headlines really show how articles on nuclear waste do less to increase public knowledge than they do to increase confusion.

The public has 0 concept about how much background radiation is in the world around them, and how there are a LOT of daily activities that increase that exposure -- like flying in an airplane.

The waste here, dumped into the open ocean -- whose size is mind-bogglingly large -- likely increases radiation exposure to the average person as much as them stepping outside for 1.3 extra seconds per century.
While the advice is good advice overall, it stumbles on its own hindsight.

> Break whatever you’re trying to learn down into use cases. Start with bite sized chunks that take a few minutes and build on them incrementally. “Learning python” is too broad. Installing python, printing hello world, installing and using a dependency, reading from a file, etc. are more well-defined, and it’s easier to know when you’re done, therefore helping to reinforce progress.

Yes "learning python" is too broad, but the subtlety here is that it's usually actually "learn my first programming language", in which case it's unlikely you would understand how to break anything up into any steps. If "learning python" is not your first language then the advice is just obvious.

The truth is that the only advice that matters is "don't give up" and "have the courage to learn however you want" because there is no such thing as "teaching".
How many living female writers do you know? She'd probably be #2 on some "most influential" list, and definitely in the top 10.
That’s not what ads are. Facebook is letting anyone with money speak their minds. The “organic” feed is already filtered algorithmically. To counter them you would also have to spend money. Facebook gets paid twice.

This seems like a very convenient coincidence of “morals” and economic incentives.
> That is the goddamned ugliest vehicle

If the Porsche Cayenne is anything to go by it will do well
>How old are you? This Reminds of what we thought the future would look like in the 80s.

As soon as I saw it I thought "dystopian future military transport". Then I remembered Blade Runner is set this month, of this year, and uncharacteristically giggled.
Designed for suburban speeds - air resistance is not that important.
Best case scenario?

I've always thought there should be a .adv TLD, and if you're caught serving anything but first party information outside of that, there would be severe penalties.

Let one TLD take all the cutthroat inhumane tracking, malware, scum adserving, all of it, and let the rest of us browse in peace.
No, things I disagree with aren't automatically virtue signalling. Feigning ignorance to ask an obvious question (Why do people treat different animals inequally?) but just happening to bring up their own moral stance is textbook virtue signalling.
God I'm laughing so hard at those pictures. That is the vehicle equivalent of a mullet, business in front and party in the back.
On the other hand, a paper on 'Effects of Exposure to Carbon Dioxide and Human Bioeffluents on Cognitive Performance' (2015) concludes that 'only exposures to bioeffluents when CO2 reached 3,000 ppm significantly affected performance of some cognitive tasks. Increased arousal level at this exposure can be used to explain the observed results.'.

The period as a thousands separator is common in some English speaking areas. A minority of them for sure, but there are a few that do it that way.
Depends on whether you only want US stocks, or worldwide. Many platforms are available for US (https://rapidapi.com/blog/best-stock-api/) but most do not provide data for European markets.
Is there actual risk here? I see the key phrase "reputational damage". Seeing how much uranium is already dissolved in the oceans, I think this is probably far less bad than e.g. micro-plastics.
Why do some tanks look much larger than others?
yeah 150-300 kcals max.

edit: wanted to add/clarify that some days i only took half of what i planned..was not hungry. my friend said i need to eat 3000 kcals of it..i said no, as i'm just going to get an athletes dose of it. the bet was to show you could function normal with averages+ doses.

also don't drink it/ add the spirulina powder to a smoothie..the taste is very acquired...its not terrible but easier to swallow tablets.
While that may be true for an unrestricted language, it doesn't need to be true of the programs we design. There's no reason that an installer needs to be written in a completely unrestricted way. NPM could use a DSL which would make it possible to review what an installer is going to do.

This is an idea I (with some collaborators) have explored in a more general way for secure shell scripting: shill-lang.org.
Hangouts new chrome extension, the one with float circles, it's pretty good, and works on Linux.
some of that, yes.

also, you get to understand what good deals smell like.
Can you link to the example? I've been interested in doing something like this, but as far as I can tell, you can only read messages using the Graph API; there's no method for sending messages.
Yeah, I don't think the issue with with the implementation, it's with the fact that it can't be controlled that companies didn't like. We either build systems to use ourselves or let private companies control our communications.
Now you make $50/hour, wait till commoditization hit your profession and see your wage dwindle before your own eyes.
There are some cases, like the Option<&T>::None case, where C/C++ do roughly the same thing just without any type guards. So in this case: pointers in C/C++ can simply be null, which is not expressed at a type level but is lumped in as a special case of the pointer value itself instead of being a separate bit. i.e. the optimization in this case is only necessary for Rust because it normally represents the enum variant as a separate component of the value in addition to its contents. The optimization brings it back in line with C/C++ from a memory usage standpoint.

However, because there are no type guards for this stuff in C/C++ you're generally constrained by convention/intuitiveness, when picking these special values, in order to (hopefully) guard against accidental misuse. So in the NonZero case above, you probably wouldn't do that because it's pretty unusual, and you'd therefore use more memory.

And then, even when the "special values" are chosen "reasonably", they sometimes get misused anyway and we end up with bugs like last year's trivial sudo exploit: https://bit-sentinel.com/to-sudo-or-not-to-sudo-demystifying...

> Reading the manual for those functions we learn that -1 is a special value

> Supplying a value of -1 for either the real or effective user ID forces the system to leave that ID unchanged.

> If one of the arguments equals -1, the corresponding value is not changed.

> So, what happens when we send -1 as a parameter? Well, somewhere along the underlying code lines is a convention that -1 is represented as 4294967295, thus either values will get the wanted result.

Edit: In practice the above may be more common in C than modern C++
When I'm working, I'm looking stuff up all the time. And, everyone I've ever paired with has been looking stuff up on a constant basis.

It's not that I'm crap, it's that the tools I'm using are always changing. HTML -> CSS? Sure, I won't look that up. CSS -> SASS? Sure, I probably won't look that up. Ask me to use LESS, I'll be on much looser footing. And, what's coming next? Do I have to have the new ES6 specifications memorized? I don't, though I've used those 100 times already, in the past weeks.

Hell, I still look up git commands.
Yeah my question above crossed your posts elsewhere in this thread - in fact I just finished reading most of your site before coming back here and finding your reply ;) Great work, I'm going to look into this.
That argument, though, makes no sense at all.

I'm a homosexual, and living in a very conservative and homophobic part of France. I don't want any things related to homosexuality and the lgbt community posted under my real identity, because then any member of my family or any of my friends could stumble upon it and make problematical deductions.

Does that mean that I shouldn't be involved online in the lgbt community whatsoever, because it's not something my relatives support?

Another fairly easy counter-example would be the one of an anonymous online political activist.
I don't get people who support that kind of arguments.

That's less a redesign than a cry for help against the input overload social networks provide. I'm glad my social surrounding is relative quiet and for Twitter I only follow a handful of people that don't tell me what they just ate.

Or even better, what if a site could combine all my social feeds, and make sure that I only see the most recent update from a person across all their networks.

I haven't used it but it looks like the author would like http://www.friendfeed.com. Maybe not the best implementation, but a start.
Agreed.

Originally he brought this up and I was thinking like 10 to 20%. He then said something to the degree of a half percent per year.

I unfortunately did sign a non-compete. The founder has pretty tight connections within this industry. It would be hard to steal clients to begin with -- I make sure all of the work is perfect and the clients are happy. I also would feel unethical doing so.

The most egregious: Pirates can skip the FBI warning and previews.

We got a portable DVD player to add to our arsenal of distractions for our toddlers on long road trips. One of the DVDs we purchased—an Elmo sing-along—prohibits the viewer from skipping the five-minute donation plea that plays before the menu. This is especially frustrating because the kids will inevitably bump something requiring playback to be restarted (even with the button lock enabled, the disc door can still be opened) at least once an hour.

Whoever made the decision to set the "unskippable" flag on that track must have absolutely no familiarity with their customer base. For the vast majority of parents, I'm sure the effect is exactly the opposite of what they intended: if I was ever considering donating to Sesame Workshop, I'm certainly not anymore.
I can't think of a single voice that I wanted to hear, nor a single entity with which I wanted to interact, that was successfully de-platformed through any of these pathways.
They disabled insecure TLS version fallback. Older versions of the Certicom TLS stack used in older versions of WebLogic are affected for example (change to JSSE).
It attached them in 39 little bags to a loop of plastic. You can see the picture near the bottom. If I see 39 individual pills in 39 individual bags like that and am being told that I am to administer them, at once, to a patient, alarm bells in my head are ringing, as a paramedic. Swallowing 39 tablets like that is not fun for anyone, even aside from risks of OD.
Major points for dropping rap lines. I like you.
Yes but to a lesser extent.

If a company controls your paycheck, it's hard enough to leave. If they control both your paycheck and your housing, it's much harder to leave. If you want to leave and you put in your two weeks' notice, are they going to respond with notice that you're being evicted? So now you have to handle a job change and a sudden move at the same time?
Never run out of toilet paper again.. and don’t forget to put the “Innovation” badge.
Chrome on Surface has always been a giant mess. Not that Google has an incentive to fix it.
Now what about when the price goes up? Will you ever even notice how much the increase was? Would you have considered switching brands? Or sizes? Did you have time to go through your email receipts, or now that the kid was finally asleep, did you open a beer and sit down with your partner?
April Fool's joke comes early?!
For the Ocado-deprived, the main feature that makes me stick with Ocado is that when I forget to make an order, they pick a set of products based on my purchase history, and delivery it at my usual fixed weekly slot anyway.

It is predictable enough (and with options for "always include" and "never automatically include") that we quite often don't bother adjusting the order.

My grocery shopping have never been less stressful.
Yes, sadly more than once by not learning from my mistakes.

Getting out of it is not as easy as some people make it out to be. But I found the 3 most important things (at least for me) are 1, put down the keyboard for all reasons. 2, have a hobby, do something you love to do that has nothing to do with your job. 3, physical activity, working out etc.

Personally, I think burnout is a form of depression, at least in my own personal experience and from some friends that have gone through it too. To that point, it is sometimes highly personal as to what helps you recharge and reset. And in the end, there are all levels of burnout, from mild where a couple weeks of vacation will do amazing things, to the severe where it can take many months or even a year to get your mojo back. The faster you recognize it, stop the behavior and fix it, the faster I think you tend to get out of it.

That's QAnon level stuff.
From the PoV of domino theory, one supposes we did ultimately win with the fall of the USSR and thus the COMINT ceased to be a mortal threat to western socio-economic values.
No questions, but just wanted to let you know that sometimes when I need to focus I play this along lo-fi hip hop tunes and it’s just beautiful.
Up vote because that really is the main thing to consider when evaluating actual needs of a project.

My actual need is that I deploy my application and I don't care where or how it is running. Most of people should not even think about running k8s on their own. That should be job of a service provider and there should be service provider for running "Nomad".
I agree, but you should be strategic. In courses where you could get an A with minimal extra effort, you should do it. You don't want to find out later in life that your GPA has become a limiting factor, i.e. if you're turned down for jobs or if you decide to go to grad school. Try and keep the GPA reasonable, i.e. at least a B average; it doesn't need to be spectacular.
Hilliarycare (President Clinton's healthcare proposal) failed in part because it would have given the government too much control over healthcare decisions. As described at http://covertrationingblog.com/restraining-individual-prerog...:

"In any case, after making this broad promise in favor of individual liberty, Hillarycare went on to limit individual liberties. It attempted to do this in the Fraud and Abuse section of the proposed law, which sought to dry up most of private medical practice, and criminalize the rest. It provided for strict governmental controls over the fees that could be charged by fee-for-service doctors or private practitioners. And if the feds decided that a private doctor’s fees were too high, they could charge him/her with bribe-taking, a serious federal crime under the new law. Indeed, Hillarycare attempted to make illegal most of the ways patients could go outside the approved system to get “extra” healthcare. Criminal penalties could accrue to both the doctor and patient. According to Paul Craig Roberts, writing in the Washington Times in December, 1993, “Mr. Clinton’s plan turns normal patient advocacy into a federal criminal offense. For example, a doctor who wants an earlier date for surgery for a needful patient can be accused of using wrongful influence and accepting a bribe and sentenced, along with the patient, to 15 years in prison.”

According to the source above, Obamacare is modeled on Hillarycare, except that it's less organized and twice as long (2700 pages vs 1368 pages.)

The reason why people object to government interference in the marketplace is because government involvement necessarily implies coercion, otherwise whatever government is doing could be done privately. If you have a scheme to provide affordable healthcare that is a "win" to all parties involved, you're welcome to do it privately, without relying on coercion.
Indeed, they are getting turned on tomorrow. This link is behind a login though. I'll comment with the blog post once it's up tomorrow morning.
To be honest, I want Chrome for a cause to stay. It is one of the most fun dick measuring contests a bunch of web fiends can have.

I wonder what this did to Chrome usage ratings?

More on topic: how many of these charitable donations have a hidden agenda? Paying for schools in India, carefully nudging them to train engineers, having cheaper employees? etc ...
That should be word lens, not world lens.
Patrick,

I'm curious why you worked as a salary man for the time that you did. You enjoy spending time with family/friends and money isn't a huge motivator, so why submit your self to the 70 hour work weeks and 3 hour commute?

And as other have said, thanks for the inspiration and information.
Paying your employees more and charging your customers less apparently doesn't look nearly as good as large donations to charity, regardless which helps more. At least in America.

Not being a cynic. There are reasons for this. We make a big deal of charity donations in general, and you get to claim a lump-sum. $1 million donated sounds better than 1000 donations of $1 thousand.

Edit: there's another upside, too. It's a lot easier to make large profits and then give back what you can later, than it is to figure out what you can afford to give up ahead of time and set a tight budget.
That's exactly the point. There are 14,000 prisoners at Riker's Island, and many of them live in similar or worse conditions than PFC Manning.

How do prisons become HN-worthy content just because someone involved with internet drama just happens to be in the prison?
I think most people attribute the jerkiness to the lack of GPU/hardware acceleration in the Android UI. Really hope that's implemented in 3.0
How do you imagine them picking the item up when you're done? You wait for the UPS guy? 1 hour pick up time slots? You go to their drop-off location?
I stand corrected. My information came secondhand from a Border Patrol agent, who asserted that we were part of a list he'd seen, and from conversation with some of those folks who are posting on the forums you mentioned. I should've sourced it myself before speaking, and I apologize for my failure to do so.

My point was not to impugn the SPLC specifically, but rather to indicate that a group that draws some criticism for its firearms association includes a whole lot of people who are very angry about NSA surveillance.
I don't get the logic. The division limit is a defense against cancer in the same way that equipping your home with a selfdestruct button is a defense against burglars. Getting cancer is better than preemptively dying because you might or might not have gotten cancer.

This isn't about copyright, it is about the DMCA. And just because someone else owns a copyright, doesn't mean you can't own a copy.
I keep the guns really far out of reach so as to require enough time to come to my senses. I've also been through a lot of therapy since then and I'm not nearly as bad off.
