Submit A Detailed Model
http://getventure.typepad.com/markpeterdavis/2007/11/submit-a-detail.html
While most entrepreneurs have completed a business plan and PowerPoint presentation prior to a first meeting, not all have finalized a financial model. A complete financial model does more than help you answer 'How' and demonstrate outputs (e.g., projected revenue, EBITDA, headcount, etc.), it should clearly demonstrate inputs and relationships. Put another way, the most detailed calculations and assumptions of the model should be transparent. This clarity is absolutely critical for helping VCs understand both your projections and your business. Unfortunately, most entrepreneurs submit incomplete models to VCs assuming that only the outputs are important, leaving the VC to invest time in unraveling the mess of inputs and calculations.

Have a Samsung HU6000/HU7000 TV that fails UHD, 60 frames, at 4:4:4 color?
I have a UN40HU6950 and have been through all kinds of troubleshooting, wanted to ask this here. Here's a thread on the nVIdia Forums:
https://forums.geforce.com/default/topic/792167/geforce-900-series/samsung-hu6950-hu7000-at-4k-60hz-4-4-4/1/

I have a GTX 970 with a new HDMI cable rated at 18Gbps. My TV is subsampling colors when I run it at 60hz, which is unusable for a computer monitor. Here is a screenshot of the in-TV-menu that tells me it is supposed to support it:

Hi,

I am using Amazon CloudFront to stream paid video content to my users and I am having problems getting the videos secured. Wowza does that by creating a secure token, but the use of wowza would be much more costly.

Netflix’s Reed Hastings on the New War for the Digital Livingroom
http://techcrunch.com/2010/10/08/netflixs-reed-hastings-on-the-new-war-for-the-digital-livingroom-tctv/
Great interview. My key takes:
- Netflix cannibalizing itself by shifting from DVD to streaming. Great approach by Reed which all big corp CEO's should take
- Netflix going global with streaming. Great vision - will be exciting to see his fight with the right owners for all the different licenses
- Vision for the web TV experience - watch the last minutes of the video. Great vision for what interfaces could look like in 10 years.
But how do we get there? What will be the intermediate steps in the next 1-5 years?

Ask HN: Best smart alarm wristband/“WakeMake” replacement in 2015?

I'm wondering what the best option is here for 2015. I see the Jawbone UP still has this feature but the UP3 wristband is backordered for 10-11 weeks. Is there something better that bundles a "smart alarm"? That's the only feature I care about

I first built it back in 2007 in asp and sql server, then moved to asp.net. The version in the video is built under LAMP with a python rss importer. It's also a single page web app getting all data via calls to an api. I started rebuilding it in ruby a while back but never found the time to complete it. also if your interested I chronicled the work I did on a blog, http://www.tubejumper.com/

Marketing css ideologies: inform rather than sell

"A Nation that Looks Like Florida (demographically)"
http://globalpublicsquare.blogs.cnn.com/2012/12/20/left-cant-stick-heads-in-the-sand-on-entitlement-reform/
"In 1900, 1 in 25 Americans was over the age of 65. In 2030, just 18 years from now, 1 in 5 Americans will be over 65. We will be a nation that looks like Florida-I don't mean the strip malls, I mean demographically. Because we have a large array of programs that provide guaranteed benefits to the elderly, this has huge budgetary implications. In 1960 there were about five working Americans for every retiree. By 2025, there will be just over two workers per retiree. In 1975 Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid made up 25 percent of federal spending. Today they add up to a whopping 40 percent. Within a decade, they will be over 50 percent."

Ask HN: How to implement ABAC authorization for enterprise applications?
Past couple of days I was learning a bit about ABAC policy languages and some of the libraries. One of the most starred library in Github on the topic ABAC is 'Casbin' which uses a PERM model instead of the standard XACML. I did a POC using Casbin.NET and I find it very easy to understand and implement. When discussed with our senior architect, his opinion is to use the standard specification (XACML) and recommended Authzforce. If you have experience in any of the aforesaid technologies, please share your views.
