One of the features noted in the 1.0 release notes was improved support for TrueCrypt volumes. Some quick searching of the dropbox forums (http://forums.dropbox.com/topic.php?id=14332) seems to indicate the since TrueCrypt uses a block cipher, dropbox should be able to only synchronize the changes (it's probably more bandwidth than the files alone, but certainly much better than having to sync the entire volume each time).

Congratulations on launching! Now that the product's launched, are you planning to go back to a day job?

Thanks for including a shot of your Sketch mockup; when I learned HTML/CSS/JS, it was 2014, and the "wireframe to HTML" craze was in full swing, and discouraged the creation of mockups.

Having built some sites since then, I cannot say enough about the value of using something like Sketch or Figma to design the site first. This means creating the style guide (typographic scale, primary/secondary colours, layout), mocking up some pages, and figuring out if you're happy with it. Only then do I start writing the HTML and CSS.

Before that, I'd code everything first and always feel like the design was off, but I didn't know why. Building it out in a prototyping tool helps you visualize the site much better, and when it's time to code, you will already have the color codes, font sizes, line-heights etc. ready to paste into the CSS.
All good. There were a lot of factors to creating the list, Enterprise use and readiness was one big one. So we narrowed it down to what we thought were the best choices. Always the possibility we missed something, but thats true of any decision like this.

Appreciate the read and questions though!
2. How is two known?

3. Indeed. Birth order is for example one of them. This makes it even harder to know 2.
This is an unusually ignorant argument. You never hear about the great rides or uneventful rides. There are millions of rides a day. So even if you came across 1000 negative posts, which may look like a lot to you and your “research”, it still would still only be 0.01% of rides for that day, not taking into account the time delta of those posts.
As an emacs user I like the little rant about keyboards towards the end (54:27). It's stupid hard to find a laptop with good keys, good layout, good internals, and good battery.
With the monozygotic twin correlation being twice the dizygotic twin correlation, what other explanations are there?
I can't agree more. There are already visas that cover every letter of the alphabet and several subclasses. We don't need more visas we need competent immigration reform.

Also, no one has been able to explain to me how someone in another country needs a visa for an idea they're working on. If the country they are from is hostile to startups isn't that something that should be taken up in there. I don't take issue with those that wan't a startup visa to be created. I take issue with the reasons given of why it should exist at all.
Money is obsessed with leftists?

Empathize with the reader, try to put yourself in their place. If you are proposing an argument, imagine you are a reader and have no idea about it, and try to make yourself understand it in the first reading. Many paper writers write as if the reader already knows their argument and the text is just a reminder, which makes the readers iterate over the text over and over again to understand.
yeah, i meant anyone with a business...exactly the people that don't have time for the paperwork. like many of us on HN.
not to mention the fact that they are the biggest contributers to webkit.
I had no idea some of this technology was already available at such an early date - truly fascinating. I was born in 1968, so watching this video has given me a bit of insight to how things were as I entered this world.

Thank you for providing this.
That's over simplifying a bit. Even if you are good enough that you are giving Ted talks on a regular basis, and if you are thank you, you still want to look as good as possible in front of the client, so you would still want to be able to do a demo, and that often requires a demo.

But, a good speaker will not let the audience see that he is nervous. Or that things are not going as he hope for. Confidence, even if based on no external reason, inspire far more confidence than does nervousness, however unjustified, and you have to win over the audience before they will listen to you.
Surprisingly pleasant. I'm a big fan of the hashmark URL updates. It's a subtle feature but its necessity becomes glaringly obvious when trying to share google maps results.
I'm not bothered by the idea of a fixed length for strings, rather the explanation that it is best to use the number 43 instead of a named constant (MAX_STRING_LEN) to avoid namespace pollution. If the first paragraph I quoted had been standalone, or better as a short comment, I would have been in full approval.

Anyway, I appreciate your response. It's good try to appreciate what others see that I do not. Yes, if you ignore the details of the code and the explanations, there are some good parts. If you look _only_ at the big picture, it's probably a fine book. And I love his clearly prefixed naming conventions. But I think you'd do a lot better reading something like the SQLite source code rather than this book if you want to see examples of good C.

I guess I have to ask: do you feel that chapter 4 on using setjmp() and longjmp() plus some brittle macros for error handling is also good for learners? I thought it was technically very clear but about 40 years out of date as to good practice. Is this a forest or a tree?
IANAL, but deception here means, to convince someone that you're a sworn law enforcement officer, which is what a private security service would be trying to do. The exception is there so that for example an actor dressed as a police officer, or someone in a halloween costume, is not a criminal because they are not trying to convince a member of the public that they truly are a police officer.
My country uses exact system that you're suggesting and I am jealous of US system of interviews and letters of application.

Over there, potential students submit their high school performance reports to a centralised system and select programmes they want to study. Then system selects students based purely on their academical performance. It includes high school exam and average grades at final year of high school. Few top performers in each programme get all expenses paid, a bunch of good-but-not-best get partial coverage.

All seems good on paper, but it gets nasty during the last few years at high school. People do whatever they can to increase their grades. Including cheating, manipulating teachers and so on. In addition to that, people learn solely for the exams. Instead of gathering general knowledge, previous exams are studied to prepare for questions that may be in the upcoming exam. So it's either studying for grades or paying for studies.

Another problem is that some people graduate with the best grades and don't know what they want to do. But they're pretty sure to get a free spot thanks to good grades. They apply for random programme that has a cool title. Sometimes they end up enjoying it, sometimes they just sit through it and end up working in a different field. While people who were genuinely interested in that subject, but had lower grades, may not get even a paid spot.

It may be grass-is-greener thingie, but interviews and letters of application seem to be much better way. Grades do not show if particular person is a good fit for the specific programme. Different schools/teachers rate their students a bit differently as well.
The war on drugs isn't over, because it never started being about drugs in the first place.

The only thing that's over is its ability to justify itself.
Fair enough. The only issue is that all (ok, most) your data is on your phone, as are your fingerprints - so if you lose it[1], in all likelihood they'll be happy they got a $1K device for free and wipe it, but if they were determined to get in to get (say) your SSH keys, or something... yeah. They'd need a few hours and some not-so-hard to get machinery.

Congratulation on the launch. I can't help but make this comment as the first impression I got on the design is that it is similar to a site I know. ( Let me mention that I am no designer). Here is the site http://www.sheamediaco.com/
> "I'm sure it's intended to keep people from kidnapping kids"

Not a good job at that - the vast majority of kidnappings (or hell, cases of child abuse in general) are done by people known to the family.

The creepy stranger who will swoop in when you turn your back and kidnap your child is 99% a figment of one's imagination.
I hope the video codec can cope with this, or else this is going to eat a lot of bandwidth for nothing.

Forgetting ID/Password is not the only problem with OpenId. The real problem I see is that, you're not only authenticated with your H/Y/GMail user name, but that you have to be authenticated on their servers and open a valid session there without you being aware that it's not closed after you login to the target OpenId site. You still have that open session even if you log out of the target site (or a go-between like ClickPass).

For OpenID to work as designed, the user should not have multiple ones and always use the same one wherever an OpenID is requested.
Just bought it, and I must say that it’s a brilliant app. A lot of fun in perspective.

While I do agree that Russia is use a lot as a scapegoat for the embarrassing failures of our political system; on terms of pure espionage Russia is probably the true culprit. They have been our equals in spycraft through the cold war, and due to the current Russian president being ex-KGB it's safe to say they are probably very favored in their current administration. Espionage is one of Russia's core competencies, it's just how it is.

(Note I'm talking about espionage in the information gathering sense, not the overthrowing of regimes action movie sense)
>The cut-off point is at around $35,000 a year.

That doesn't sound true.
Can you back up your argument with facts' data?
Depends on a) the quality of the e-book adaptation's typesetting and markup, and b) the size and quality of the device. The textbook publisher needs to invest a little (though possibly not as much as conventional typesetting) and the student needs to shell out on a full 10-inch screen (which need to be used on several books for the investment to amortize out correctly).

Layout/markup: for well-done academic volumes (using Google Play and Sugimoto's "An Introduction to Japanese Society" as my reference piece) things like footnotes are actually a better experience than print - you tap a blue-highlighted superscript, and you get a model that pops up inline for you to read and then swipe away. No looking up the number at the bottom or (even worse) in the endnotes. Tables are all linkable and back buttons work, etc. On the other hand, a straight import of the original text and graphics without any semantic markup can be truly painful to use.

Device quality: this matters more for things like academic volumes with charts/figures (as you mentioned) and graphic novels. If you have content that needs to be viewed on a single screen, and it's organized to fit on 10-inch-diagonal paper page (or larger), it's going to suffer a lot on a 7 inch tablet. especially on small form factors. If you try to read a book with tables and charts built for a full-size hardcover on a 7-inch tablet, it will go badly (I have tried this). On a ten-inch tablet with a screen closer to the hardcover size it's actually quite pleasant.

These two issues interact a bit with the layout/markup issue; for example, I've seen linguistics books that try to give the same text in three versions (foreign language, individual-word translation, and idiomatic translation) as three-line clusters, like so:

mah nishma`?
what hear.PASS
How are you doing?

The typesetter didn't know how to make these reflow correctly using e-book markup (which may not be possible given the tools available?), which means that the line breaks are hardcoded, and the ends of long lines will be unviewable past the edge of the screen on 7-inch tablets. On a 10-inch tablet this works quite well.

Doing the things college students do with textbooks (flipping back and forth between a pset and the material, for example) requires a bit of familiarity with the software but it's very doable and I think very pleasant once you get used to it. It is a barrier to entry, though, and I think e-book UIs need to make it easier to learn. This might just be my personal experience, but I find full-text search, even with a tablet screen, much faster than index lookup in print.
No, but if you secure a cellar with a padlock on hundreds of people, thats called kidnapping and possibly murder.
It's kinda weird to use your personal account to ask this (instead of an anonymous one). Based on your submissions here on HN (https://news.ycombinator.com/submitted?id=JayeshSidhwani) and a quick google search for your name (which throws up https://in.linkedin.com/in/jayeshsidhwani and https://twitter.com/jayeshsidhwani), it becomes obvious that you are talking about Shopsense and saying that it is not going anywhere.

As for your questions, do what's best for you. It's also usually best to leave out emotions when making these kind of decisions.

It doesn't matter if it's been 2 years or 2 months, as long as you have a valid reason for quitting, you shouldn't be stereotyped as an "unstable" employee (even more so, if you are good at what you do).

I'm in Mumbai as well, so if you need to "talk" to someone before your decide, I'll be more than happy to lend a ear.
You are correct. A good definition of money is "the most liquid good." People want to use the single most liquid good in transactions, for ease of transaction.

In other words, good money drives out the bad.
Hi all, Engineering Manager for Java at Microsoft here - I can confirm this is the case, the two announcements were completely unrelated.
Mesos made a ton of new contributions to distributed resource management. Resource offers and application integration can allow high cluster utilization and efficiency. Giving applications the opportunity to take part in resource allocation and scheduling was similar to the Exokernel design, and led to many interesting middleware architectures.

Mesos also introduced Dominant Resource Fairness for allocating resources to competing applications, which has become an important concept in CS and specifically computational economics in its own right.

Mesos achieved the rare combination of using CS research towards a widely deployed operational system. Its C++ code is simple enough to understand and hack, and seemed like one of those projects that you can/want to reimplement on your own "in a few days".

It is sad how quickly it has become obsolete.
History doesn't repeat but it surely rhymes.

Long Term Capital Management 94-98.

Some of the lower-level questions map more to design review rather than code review. For example if you're asking "Do the domain models cleanly map the real world to reduce cognitive load?" after the code is already written, it's probably too late to make any changes. However you should have some kind of plan and communicate it to your teammates prior to embarking on the kind of code change that creates new "domain models." During their review of your plan they should be making sure the domain model makes sense.
> Correct: ... Is it performant enough for this use case?

I completely agree with that definition of correct. Code should be performant _enough_ for the use case. It shouldn't strive for the unachievable "infinite performance" or "endless scalability". It should do well now and in the next performance / growth cycle (usually measured in months to a low number of years unless you're in hyper growth).

However I disagree with "Secure" being on a different level than "Correct". Or rather, the "release" line passes over the secure. I may not be happy with the structure of the code, but I will never knowingly release insecure code or allow such code to be released if I can help it. The impact of security issues to the bottom line is usually far greater (in both immediate and future terms) than the impact of any non-data-loss inducing functional issue.

-- addendum ---

Also I miss "being evolution ready" (future proofing). Sometimes you give up on some of the other aspects to make sure your code (and the data it governs) can be evolved should the need arise.
This study is about antibodies stemming from infection with other viruses and explicitly does not come to a conclusion about whether they are meaningfully protective against SARS-CoV2.
The absolute best thing about WFH: naps whenever I need it. No more slogging through the post-lunch mid-afternoon slump. I take a 15 minute nap and am good to go for the rest of the afternoon. Also, early meetings at 6~7AM scheduled to work with European coworkers can be followed by a short nap afterwards as well. This has done wonders for my energy throughout the day.
The reality is the WFH scenario is subjective. Depends on your seniority, industry, role, and other factors. For kids coming out of college, how do they get mentorship? You're lying to yourself if you think apprenticeship means zoom calls and retreats. The model doesn't work for most companies, but it sure feels good to get that first shot of WFH freedom. After 5 years working from home, this last year put the exclamation point on me getting back into an office working shoulder to shoulder with a like minded community of people. I need people more than WFH comfort, after a while, WFH is a predictable numbing experience. While the efficiencies are there, and there are many valid points, WFH has severe limitations to professional growth.
Many good points in the OA but overall I don't think it jives well with the software field. Because in software there's such a lop-sided balance of power in favor of the good programmer (due to talent rarity and availabilty) that it's much more important that the candidate has the skills, talent and availability. If a candidate sucks or is a faker the power lies with the potential employer. Otherwise it lies with the candidate.

I also think the OA's advice misses out on the notion that it is a two-way street: the employer is also applying to the candidate for the priviledge of getting that person's future time and commitment, and taking on the opportunity costs that candidate will incur if they end up working for you.
Hi. I am curious. While downloading, wouldn't it store the temp file on your pc, and then alter/transfer it to your chosen destination? E.g you need to download it and then upload it.

Or does this only go for some browsers? if so, which?
haha, I used to wonder exactly the same thing. I asked my friend who actually uses Twitter, and he basically said, "You're doing it wrong." He said that Twitter is all about the stream, and using it for historical conversations like that is awkward and difficult. Which makes me question the point, but there you go.
I'm thinking it comes from "liminal," which is a big concept in literature.
Can you rephrase that question without using the word "why"?

I have no idea what "why does 1+1=2?" is trying to find out.
I believe it would be cheaper if they just shot it live.
Tries to be anonymous, but Google knows better. Looks like this is mostly a Deutsche Telekom AG project. Someone has to make money providing this "right".

Currently, ahumanright.org is designing a pilot program for a developing country to roll out 10,000 end-user devices and ground stations to test the feasibility of such an idea using pre-existing satellite infrastructure. On their board, the organization has had people like the late Senator Gaylord Nelson, principal founder of Earth Day International; Lon Levin, founder of XM Satellite Radio; and Simon P. Warden, Director of the NASA Ames Research Center. So far, ahumanright.org has secured funding from Deutsche Telekom (T-Mobile) and are looking for volunteers.

From a PL perspective, you can't beat Benjamin Pierce's Types and Programming Languages.

I agree.

Actually, a few days ago I presented Ge.tt for an event called Demoday. With a small demo, which wasn't more than a screencast, they all seemed to get it (pun intended) very fast. And the feedback was extremely good. So, for a starter we'll probably do just that - a screencast.

Then we can always figure out something fancy :)

They already have trademarks on poke and wall, I don't think they're trying to be malicious, they're just trying to protect their brand.

They won't be able to stop people using Face in unrelated contexts, nor will they be able to stop people who already use the word Face in their brand.

It will stop people creating product with names primarily being composed of the word "Face" in a competing space with Facebook.
same on chromium/ubuntu

somethings gotta be wrong with that plugin
Worked perfectly for me. Great job James & Peteris
I got to use it. It's basic for now but shows a lot of promise. A number of factors that you'd need to add for me to even consider using it:

- Bigger browser window

- More responsive UI. It shows a message saying a plugin was not run (flash) but it took forever to be able to click the X on the message to hide it and it locked up the browser (not my browser but the browser in the browser.)

- There was a lot of waiting in the queue and it suggested paid plan... but no paid plan available.

- I was able to access other parts of the machine, including the printing and devices section (usually visible when you right click the computer icon and click properties. You might want to lock down the machine a bit more.

I'm guessing you're aware of most of these.

The only other thing I'll say is that how are you dealing with the Windows licensing? You probably don't want to ignore dealing with that if you haven't yet as it could be painful in the future.

Overall, very interesting technology. Kudos!
Strangely enough, Twitter's former CEO Dick Costolo said this in October:

"Me-first capitalists who think you can separate society from business are going to be the first people lined up against the wall and shot in the revolution. I'll happily provide video commentary."
