Many readers would take issue of your use of the word "invented" in this context. Was the Pythagorean theorem also "invented" in your opinion?
I believe if you become a member of the US Congress you are explicitly excluded from insider trading laws. So you could always stand for office.

Sigh.
Agree, it seems like a pretty straight forward approach.

Having said that, one year out of university is a good time to take as much risk as you like so its not too important at that stage.

It may even help motivate if you know you will benefit financially if your company does well

Microtests should be bonuses; they should contribute to your final grade but you should be able to get A on the final exam even with 0 bonus points. So for a person that works during the year this alleviates the final exam pressure while allowing others that for any reason weren't scoring a lot to prove they mastered what was required.

The term "solar cell" refers to a wide variety of technologies[1]. Anything from common semiconductors, rare-earths or even fruit juice can be used to make solar cells. The impact will be highly dependent on the type of cell in question.

PCI Compliance for Amazon CloudFront
That is a really odd thing to claim, given that there are so many proponents of the MIT license. People claim that MIT is "more free than GPL" because MIT has less restrictions. GPL has more restrictions, and although those restrictions are there to ensure that the same rights are passed on other people, MIT proponents don't buy that argument: they argue that even if someone forks an open source project, slap a GUI on it and sell it as a proprietary product, no freedom is lost because the original is still available. It does not matter that you cannot contribute to the fork. The ability to make proprietary forks is seen as good.

Yet when applied to Google's products, this is suddenly viewed in a different manner? Even if the maintainer does not accept patches, you can still fork it, so no freedom is lost. And it's ok for other people to make a proprietary fork, but not ok for the author to make a proprietary fork? That sounds like hypocrisy to me.
Refusal to introspect is not a lack of cognitive ability, it is a choice that is appropriate to shame.

While I agree that the megapixel count is pretty irrelevant. I'd say that the biggest advantage Apple have camera wise is a really good, really fast image processing pipeline.

The absolute best feature in a mobile camera is the time-to-capture. The faster it is, the faster you get the shot you want.

I'd also argue that the iPhone 5 default camera app/calibration/settings just produced better shots, faster, than the HTC One default camera.
Speed of light determines the lower bound of roundtrip latency, but the sticking point is the upper bound, and that depends on how congested networks are.

If sensors produce more data and data centers can process more data but network capacities can't keep up, then the analysis you are suggesting will show that we need more decentralised processing, not more data centers.

Well said. Of course, the entire premise can be justified succinctly by recognizing that a portfolio consisting of the typical 23 year old tech grad's net worth ($25-$100k) plus the first round of grants from a large tech company ($10-$40) would consist of 9.1%-61.5% stock in a single tech company. Keeping the stock would put you anywhere from foolishly to comically over invested in the company.

Multiculturalism Comes to Computing at PolyConf
Okay, now it is clear that your feelings about this are that it is “unfair” and that you feel YC should be “ashamed” of this [ note that “this” refers to HN job listings only being for YC companies. ]

When something is not working for you, what are your options ? You can try to blame someone else, or you can take responsibility and create improvements yourself. In this case it appears you are trying to blame YC for what is not working for you. What comes of this trying to blame someone else? Well, you get to pretend that they are wrong, and therefore, by implication, you get to feel “right”. This is a compelling fake pay off because, without ever doing anything, you get to feel you are “right”. So that is what can come of trying to blame someone else.

If you goal is to effect change, this choice is self-defeating. Since the only thing that changes is your perspective of yourself. Nothing in the world changes. Now, you may believe that by shaming other people and saying things are unfair, things may alter in the world. Well, maybe they will, and yet still you are expecting other people to alter them for you.

This attitude is the very antithesis of the founder, or hacker, or startup attitude, which is the belief, that a small group of committed individuals can change the world. If that small group of individuals had instead sat around complaining about what wasn’t working for them, well, then they wouldn’t have been the ones who changed the world.

Now, let’s look at what you can do besides this. How can you take responsibility for what is not working for you and choose to create improvements ?

There could be a number of reasons that only posting YC companies’ jobs is not working for you. Perhaps you applied to YC and were declined. Perhaps you have a startup, and didn’t apply to YC, and are looking to hire, and would like to access the HN audience.

Let’s just take the latter as an example. Now what can you do to access the HN audience for your hiring in this case ? How about writing a blog post about the opportunity your startup is meeting, and at the end of the blog post, have a link that says, if you read this far and you’re interested in working on stuff like this, we’re hiring!
The alternate answer is that it goes out in the usual fashion with little no digestion at all. Or put more bluntly, if you eat a brick of Teflon, then you shit a block of Teflon.
And it's not just open source, it's BSD which is about as none restrictive as you can get. So now
1) Open Source
2) Royalty-free
3) Free as in beer
4) Free as in freedom (Open Source OSI certified BSD)

Software can now be call proprietary?

pro·pri·e·tar·y : of or relating to an owner or ownership.

So what is this guys saying. That now anything with a company behind is is proprietary? Linux has got LMI, so I guess that's proprietary, and firefox has got Mozilla. Libreoffice...by this guys twisted version of reality, what is not proprietary?
It soft-launched in 2014, I believe. I registered on their website asking for an account sometime in 2014, and got an invite in September 2014 to what the email described as a "private beta". The general public launch where anyone can just click and create an account was earlier this year.
You're not going to get sick from the tiny amount of Teflon that might fall off during repeated cooking. This article is about workers exposed to large amounts over years.
Allowing insider trading could also lead to much more "herding" behaviour: if the market starts moving before the official news event, it probably means someone (a big player) knows something, so everyone else is going to get on board the move. Now add a second order effect to this: people (big players) will try gaming the system by starting a herd effect before the big news. Especially if you make the herd go in the wrong direction you are going to win big time.

All of this leads to exactly the opposite of what you are hoping for: price discovery. It's just chaos and instability, and probably harmful to the market in general.
Perhaps the more impressive number is that they found 7 quintillion new irregular pentagons that can't tile the plane.

"We're connecting expats with existing limo companies so that they can come on the Uber platform"

Is it just me or does that sound pretty awful? Considering what I've read about the terrible conditions of migrant workers in the middle east... (job seekers paying huge placement fees, employers taking workers passports, workers living in awful conditions, withheld pay, etc.)
It also seems that trading currencies is not prohibited by any "insider trading" rules. See: recent unpegging of the swiss franc from the euro. There was much shenanigans in the market before the franc was unpegged.
Tl;dr? How badly am I destroying my health by using a Teflon pan?
Exactly what I was looking for since months now!

Loved the architecture of Chronos, but with JVM, Zookeper and Mesos as requirements, it had "heavyweight" written all over the place. This is what the successor of cron should be IMHO. Distributed by design, API driven and dynamic.

EDIT: Apparently it's NOT distributed yet. Had hoped for Raft or etcd integration.
> Secure Boot basically screws up the ability to boot Linux OSes

Not really. The barrier to obtaining a signed bootloader isn't that large, and if you're unwilling or unable to do that you can use http://mjg59.dreamwidth.org/20303.html and just oblige your users to jump through an additional (easily documented) hoop. We had legitimate concerns over the impact of Secure Boot on free operating systems, and for the most part we were able to reach some reasonable solutions.
Cool, thanks for the clarification. What I was trying to suggest is that we will encourage all of our partners to adopt Vulkan alongside OpenGL ES on Android, Linux or any other operating system that supports Khronos APIs. However, for some manufacturers, updating might not be an option due to factors like costs, development time, etc. So there is no absolute guarantee that every single device having a PowerVR Rogue GPU will have Vulkan. We can only promote it and hope that it happens since it is a really good API.
The feat becomes more impressive, yes, but not the work – i.e. the result.

If I want to be a peer among peers and contribute to society on an equal level, I can’t have people going “Ooh, that’s very good for a cripple/child/blind person. When they do that, I can never know if I am actually good enough or if people are only patronizing me.
There is a simpler way to put it: if you wouldn't buy the stock if you had the money in cash, then clearly you should sell the stock.

Teflon itself is pretty much inert. That's the whole point - nothing reacts with it, nothing sticks to it. The worry is about the chemicals used to manufacture it.
Your post focuses on PVC's - what's the impact of / where does thermal solar fit in with these projections?
"Can be disputed" doesn't mean there isn't a specific interest group jealously guarding that article to protect a specific POV.
I've never understood the gravity of Teflon pans. I can never seem to keep them non-stick, whether it be because of using too high of heat or somehow scratch the damn thing.

So, I got cast irons. It's trivial to keep them seasoned and thus non-stick, and they can take the beating of very high heat -- searing meats -- and any metal utensils or rough substances.
Addendum: As Zash pointed out[1], this is documented behavior for offline messages, i.e. messages send while the user was offline. Those are only send if the user announced availability via a presence or if XEP-13: Flexible Offline Message Retrieval is used. This is to prevent storms of offline messages when the client (re-)connects.

But it's certainly not true that you "won't receive any message despite ... successful connection".

They joined big companies just a year ago as wet behind the ears, good for very little, graduates. So realistically how much stock are really talking about here? I'm assuming it is pitifully small which is why it was so easy to come to the decision to offload it on a whim.

It may be somewhat foolish to be so heavily invested in a single stock because of risk, but as a newgrad you are about as far away from retirement as you can get, you should be taking on riskier stocks if you have the energy to pay attention to it, that time is now. Gradually shifting to less risky stocks happens withage, hold on to some of those crazy shares now.

How do you keep them seasoned? I tried a couple of times, but couldn't get it right. Could you give me some tips?
Contrary to most of the others on this thread I appreciate you're using Java for this. Using Java means drawing upon a very robust foundation. This very much looks like a tool for business rather than personal use.

I can't imagine why a company wouldn't get a proper yet slightly more expensive server with an adequate amount of RAM instead of a vhost that only allows to run PHP, especially as the software itself comes for free and most companies such a tool would be useful for likely already have some sort of dedicated server - either on-prem or hosted - anyway.

Besides, Java often is the only option for deploying tools in larger companies.

I have one question, though: What's your business model with Lavagna? From what I've seen at a cursory glimpse there doesn't seem to be dual-licensing or anything similar (which on the other hand probably wouldn't make sense for a project management tool anyway).
Ah, I see what you mean. I was thinking more in terms of market-driven motives for adoption rather than technical facts. Unfortunately, Vulkan is currently still under development and under strict NDA so I can't disclose any of the inner workings at this moment in time (beyond what we have posted on the blog). However, when the spec is final and public, we will talk a lot about the technical implications in more detail, offering code snippets and tutorials so developers can understand how to use Vulkan.

When it comes to Vulkan development, it is a pretty much a joint effort. We (the GPU providers) design the graphics processors and write the drivers/compilers to support Khronos. Then the application developers (the middleware guys) adopt their engines and libraries for Vulkan too in cooperation with us and other members of Khronos. Finally, the high-level application developers (e.g. games developers) port their software too. In addition, third parties might also create Vulkan open source drivers and compilers for the GPUs so it's a combination of in-house and third-party work.
If the incumbent editors watching the page are the source of POV, then the mechanism is to prevent the correction of POV rather than to correct POV. There is no mechanism to prevent this.
How do I get me some HTC stock? I never purchased international stock before, but if it's really trading for below cash, it might be a good buy. Something to research tomorrow.
It's not that naive. When considering your investments, you should consider your employment as part of your investment capital (in investment management this is your "human capital"). It's important to realize that your salary is more like a bond than an equity, but once you've taken that into account the author's thesis is basically correct. You are taking additional risk by investing your financial capital and human capital in the same asset.

It's far more naive to keep your entire investment in your employer than to sell all of it and diversify, even if neither of those is necessarily optimal. It's extremely naive to think that you have special insight into the future returns of a multi-billion dollar publicly traded company when you are a developer one year out of college, just because you work there.
"Attack on the pentagon" ...aaaand the guardian has lowered themselves to buzzfeed's standards.
I'm not familiar with the way Uber operates there but if they mediate the worker-company relation and sponsor the drivers into the country they might actually be helping here, at least with the placement & passport issues. The worst offenders are probably not going to work with Uber anyway.

I'm generally not a fan of the way Uber operates but I don't think they actually can make migrant worker's treatment in the middle east any worse than it already is.
I've worked in computer repair shops, and what you've described about OEM Windows is how it's worked for years. You have to either use the recovery partition that comes with the machine or order new recovery media from the manufacturer. This isn't unique to Lenovo.
Ah, yes, this. When I went back to university after taking a break a couple of years ago I promised myself it would be out of pure interest, because I cared about the subject, not to get good grades. Of course it didn't work out exactly that way, pretty soon there's an assignment to hand in tomorrow, and exam to get points on next week... and again I found myself preparing to answer the questions I knew I was going to get, rather than delving into that one subject that seemed interesting, or reading through the proof of a theorem being used. The grades were good, the learning... maybe not so much.

Right now I'm working on my final thesis research, and I found a good subject. Everyone keeps asking what my deadline is, when it is going to be done, how I'm progressing. I don't care. I'm learning, creating and having fun. I want to be able to spend the whole day exploring a topic I don't understand, or refactoring parts of my simulation code that I don't like. I know I'll get it done at some point, and when I do it'll be a valuable contribution at least to myself and hopefully the field I'll be publishing in. That's what learning's supposed to be like for me.

"Why? Do they not want my business? Is it really so horrible to sell their product to someone who wants to run their OS under VMWare?"

Not really, they want the business of IT departments of medium/large companies, running full Windows stacks (Windows Enterprise, Office, Windows Server, MS Sql Server, Exchange), which buy licenses by the dozen (at least) through their purchasing department.

It's how they make(a lot of) money.
that's awesome. Outsider math and outsider art deserve as much respect as "outsider" programming ( startups / garage hackers ) garner. Creating semi-closed communities of insiders, united by what are essentially arcane handshakes, and dismissive of value emerging outside of themselves, is really just both a narrow-mindedness that doesn't behoove innovation and also an admission of an unnecessary insecurity about the lack of substantive reasons for cohesiveness in that community resulting in the desire to fabricate arbitrary insubstantial reasons for cohesiveness.

At the same time, you could say that narrow-mindedness was focus and restraint, things which __do__ work for innovation.

Another way of looking at the cohesiveness issue, is that if your community is so substantially strong, why do you need to exclude outsiders ? The best democracies include difference, revealing their strength through diversity. The worst extremist fascist states put it to death, revealing their dread of diversity.

Let the ad-hoc groups of intellectual collaborators be like democratic meritocracies not frightened facist states.
On the topic of chemical, how do you know if something is dangerous -- in the context of household item? Even with the MSDS and/or knowledge of the compositions, layman doesn't really have any sense on how dangerous something is (as it's all missing dosage). I'm a bit on the paranoid side (mostly because I think my roommate/ housemate has always been too liberal with spraying chemicals crap everywhere), and most of the time, even if I wanted to I have no idea if I want to use something in my house.

Can anyone explain what this is all about? I followed the tutorial, but still cannot understand what are the ideas behind Relay/GraphQL. There must be some principles why the application is structured that way, but without seeing them, it looks like layers of indirection for the sake of complication.

> Of course, but then they're not Secretary of State. It's not a stretch to imagine her position should come with some latitude on how they execute their job function.

Sounds like the Nixon defense. Though at least Clinton wasn't (apparently) acting out of malice. She might have just been a bit paranoid about security, incompetent (at IT security - and allowed yes-men to get her set up), or somehow needed a level of convenience that she couldn't get from the official system.

It's even possible the official system was suspected of being compromised (if it was, we might not know), and she could get a safer system.
