Expressing Church Pairs with Types
http://www.jonmsterling.com/posts/2011-12-28-expressing-church-pairs-with-types.html
It’s easy to express pairs in the untyped lambda calculus; adding types makes it somewhat more complex to get a correct encoding. In this article, I explain how we can build a pair with typesafe accessors in a polymorphically typed lambda calculus with type operators (System Fω), and demonstrate it in Haskell.

Predicting when China will overtake America
http://www.economist.com/blogs/dailychart/2010/12/save_date
So I came across this article on The Economist which mischievously speculates about when the Chinese economy would overtake the American economy. The article is clearly to designed to increase page hits and good for them.

I am not interested in discussing the possibility or probability of this ever happening . What I would like to know from the hacker community is how would we change our mindset to accommodate China and the Chinese market? Would you enable censorship or would you fight it ? Would you be thinking of enabling backdoors into your applications and services for the big brother or would you enable Steganography and PGP ? Anything else that might come up ? How far would you go to accommodate the Chinese government ? And why?

Startup Aims to End Unemployment Woes for Future College Grads
http://www.stringhub.com
Indianapolis, IN, 9/16/2011 — Startup company, StringHub, has launced a new web-based platform that will help university students gain the connections and experience they need in order to secure jobs after graduation. The platform connects university student class projects with businesses who can utilize the projects and provide a real world learning experience for the students at the same time.

The StringHub platform allows professors to post class projects for businesses to view and apply for. Professors can then assign students to each project. The students will communicate with the businesses on the StringHub platform to complete the project. Finally, businesses will provide feedback to help the students improve and prepare for future employment.

Adam Hoeksema, Co-Founder of StringHub said, “Recent college grads are struggling to find jobs in their area of study after graduation, because they graduate with very little real world experience, and no network of potential employers. The StringHub Platform will simply help universities manage the process of connecting students with businesses in a more systematic way.” University professors will now be able to support their student’s future employment without all of the coordination headaches that typically keep student class projects from working with real world businesses.

StringHub is a web-based platform that connects university student class projects with businesses in order to help students gain real world experience, build a portfolio of completed work, and connect with potential employers all while still in the classroom. Professors and businesses can sign up to beta test the StringHub Platform for free at http://www.stringhub.com

NBC Olympics Executive’s Email Wasn’t “Widely Available” In Google
http://searchengineland.com/nbc-olympic-executives-email-wasnt-widely-available-in-google-128973
Danny Sullivan from SearchEngineLand has posted an article regarding the claim by Guy Adams about the NBC official's email being "widely available".
Danny says,
'There remains the debate over whether sharing a corporate address is one that’s not personal and therefore not a violation of Twitter’s rules. I’d say no. Just because someone has a work address doesn’t make it not personal. It’s their personal work email.'

Ask HN: MS vs. Job
Hi HN!
I am a junior undergrad studying CS from a top university in India (IIT). Eventually, I want to start my own business. I did a startup which failed and don't have any idea to pursue at this point of time. So, I am confused between getting a job (at a top company/startup) and applying for MS from Stanford.

If I apply for a MS CS at Stanford, I will get good exposure and experience in silicon valley. Moreover, I love CS and the network and connections may also be beneficial. On the other hand, I cannot work in US for the first year after graduation (since I won't have a provisional degree by April'16 which will be needed for H1B) and even after that, I am not sure of getting the visa. The other option is to join a fast growing startup in India itself but I am not sure about how beneficial it will be.

Adapting Technology To A Brave New World
http://www.theautomaticearth.com/adapting-technology-brave-new-world/
Many economics pundits are predicting the world will soon go into a deep depression. Theautomaticearth.com, an economics blog related to preparing for the deflationary collapse, recently ran a piece on "Adapting Technology To A Brave New World," which predicts that Free and Open-Source Software (FOSS) and the DIY electronics movement will be critical for survival in this brave new world. Will a depression finally bring about the year of Linux on the desktop?
Share your weekends with the world
http://www.youwik.com
Hi everyone,

I have been working on a small app to help everyone share holidays, weekends, etc with your friends. I found that I could not remember what I have done during my last holidays, and felt it would be awesome to have it documented for the future, for me and my friends. I'd like to being able to share stuff I have done, but without something to get back my memories...I just couldn't. My buffer gets empty too fast :-)

The website design is a bit shitty, but the app should be now functional. I hope you have fun with it!

Reverse Engineering Web Applications: The Series
http://pinvoke.wordpress.com/2011/11/08/reverse-engineering-web-applications-the-series/
n the compiled binary world, reverse engineering is the taking of an application (executable or dll) and leveraging a combination of compiler theory and assembly to arrive at a reasonable representation of its original source code. And though, while this definition is accurate, it’s somewhat mechanical and not exactly very revealing.

Ask HN: Google docs vs. GitHub Wiki/Markdowns
In my company, we need to write down

1. Steps needed to run the apps for multiple environments
2. Staging/Production configurations and related steps to configure
3. List of servers with there addresses
4. Third party service settings and configuration data

I find it's hard to use a single Google Doc for all these. I think using GitHub wiki would be better as it deals with simple markdown text files, also linking, discoverability, code highlighting is bonus

What do you use and what is appropriate for this case? Also what are merits and demerits of each approach.

Show HN: Granted CLI – manage multiple AWS profiles in your CLI and browser
https://github.com/common-fate/granted
Hey all!

We've been working on Granted CLI for a while now and this is our first time posting it on HN. It's an open source CLI tool that aims to simplify workflows for people with multiple AWS profiles and accounts.

Here's some examples of commands:

`assume cf-dev` assumes a profile named cf-dev in my ~/.aws/config file

`assume cf-dev -c` assumes the profile and also opens an AWS web console in my browser of choice

`assume cf-dev -s ec2` assumes the profile and opens the web console to the EC2 dashboard

We've designed this to leverage your browser's native container/profile functionality to allow you to quickly open multiple AWS profiles in different tabs, while also being able to assume the role in your terminal for any CLI work you need to do. Works on Mac, Linux and Windows.

We're working on this continuously so we're keen to hear any feedback. Feature requests and critique are more than welcome.

The Getting Started docs are here for anyone who wants to check this out: https://docs.commonfate.io/granted/getting-started/

The Role of Law versus Ethics
http://protogenist.wordpress.com/2012/08/24/the-role-of-law-versus-ethics/
The law consists of rules that are recognized by a society and enforceable
by some authority. It can impose affirmative obligations to act
in certain ways or require people to refrain from certain actions. Although
laws are informed by ethics, they are not equivalent and therefore laws
aren’t entirely congruent with societal ethical norms. For example, we
might agree that lying to a friend is unethical
