ASK HN: js/confirm on close PR in Github?
I have accidentally closed pull requests several times. I think it is very likely because the "Comment and close PR" button is conveniently located just beside the "Comment" button

A js/alert would probably mitigate this issue.

Which seems rather appropriate given the extremely sick facts delivered to us by Snowden on a silver plate and the absence of change of course of society.
Software compatibility is both good and bad.

If we were in the habit of recompiling from source with each CPU generation (this presumes source is available), that would allow much more innovation in machine language. And then the design of that machine language would more closely resemble the actual design of the CPU.

But there are such significant advantage to remaining binary compatible, that I'm not surprised with how things actually turned out.

Reading this made me think about the hard problem of "removing" yourself from the internet. I don't think it is possible. But I do think there might be an opportunity for a service that creates so much conflicting and false information about a person that it is not possible to know the truth about them: false addresses, phone numbers, credit histories, you name it. Just a thought.
It's interesting all the same, It's kind of why exploits in very popular things like wordpress become problematic for so many for so long.
Mostly Valencia, with some time in Tarragona, Palma, and Cartagena. Mostly I was working there, but I knew I'd be there for some time, so I integrated as quickly as possible.
Are websites targeted to India usually in English?

For the website itself, it looks a bit sloppy.

- Margins are not ok everywhere

- The logo-text has a different font from the rest

- Stock bootstrap elements I don't like (no issue though)

- Almost no data and some data is from 2014 (is it live?)

> You might as well worry about the privatization of the NHS next.

There's quite a lot of private provision already in the NHS.

Forensic Mental Health Units tend to be privately run hospitals, especially the medium and high secure units. There's a few privately run in-patient units treating eating disorder (especially for children). Drug and alcohol rehab is often provided by 3rd sector groups.

It's all free at the point of delivery, and paid for by the NHS, but there's plenty of private provision within the NHS already and it's only going to grow.
Normally the problem with price regulation is that the market doesn't clear. If the 10% limit was hit, there are sellers out there that tried to get out at the lowest allowable price but failed. Doesn't this mean they are probably going to be shares for sale at a lower price tomorrow?

I think that's exactly what's been happening for weeks by now. It's like falling down the stairs - a step each day.
My anecdata is the exact opposite. I find the met office very accurate.

One thing I have noticed is that the idiot glyphs they use don't tie into my expectations. I see a picture of the sun behind a cloud with a rain drop on it and I think "light showers". It actually means "40% chance of rain". A cloud with a rain drop and no sun still only means that there's a 50/50 chance of rain.
I sat on cash since 2008 and don't feel particularly smart.

That makes a lot of sense. I can see some naturally shy people filled with nervous energy from conflict shying away, and other naturally shy people feeling the nervousness and doing it anyway because it needs to be done.
The first devaluation is just a political move. Just to test the waters - will the Americans go crazy about them devaluing.
In the second act, they will say - hey, this 1.5% didn't work. Look our industrial production is still falling. We have to adjust to market forces and devalue more. Then comes the 20% or so devaluation. But look, the Yuan has appreciated around 8% the last 5 years, so it will only be a relatively small devaluation. That will be the argument.

This is why my company won't allow Chrome on their workstations - it's a security risk. As far as I'm concerned installing Chrome on your system is installing a backdoor for Google.

The ones who are in much more risk are those "selling shovels in a gold rush" - i.e. companies with a revenue stream based on services and products to other start-up companies.
> In that case, they don't want things happening before they have tested any proposed changes.

True, but let me continue that sentence: ... and as they have too little time for testing, they tend to resist all change.

There are a few very capable IT organisations that have a systematic approach to change. It would be a sensible thing to give them the necessary tools to manage change. One such tool is to delay browser updates.

But there are many more incompetent IT organisations that are overwhelmed and will keep the same browser version for 10 years if you let them.

I'm just making an observation. I don't know what the best solution is.

But privately owned companies are now funded largely by private equity who are massively leveraged. They will be first to the exits. IPOs meant the pain was more spread around among stock holders. Now the pain will be more concentrated among highly indebted leveraged investors. It won't end prettily.

Ask HN: If you are a job seeker, whats your ideal software to manage the search?
Hello HN,

Just contemplating an idea: Say you are looking for a job. Since there are thousands of companies out there, each potentially with its own response pace, requirements, steps, and so on, an app to manage this could fill a really nice niche. How would you envision such an app to be? What would be a killer feature, and would you pay for it?
Hint: you are looking for something that isn't called a "framework".

I got a new job in SV in 2008 as well. People were congratulating me that I managed to get "an" offer. Lots of places had hiring freezes back then. When did things change in the valley? Was it Q4 2010? Q1 2011? I'm genuinely curious and trying to refresh my memory. I feel like I was in a funk and then woke up one day with all this Unicorn talk. Today, housing prices in MV "seem to be" 100% more than what they were in 2010. What the heck happened? Does "Unicorns" explain all of that? Forign investors? Ultra low interest rates??
It's important to remember that companies and programmers at the top of their games can still thrive in a down economy. There will always be software to write, especially in economic sectors that aren't directly wired to startups. Take ecommerce for example, which depends on income from the whole population. The whole population never recovered from the last market downturm, yet people still need to buy stuff, and increasingly do so using apps and the web.

I just hope urban real estate doesn't go even more berserk with investors looking to park otherwise uninvestable money.

Sure you have, it's just they're barely noticable. Little black laptops with a web-browser open. Not all of them have big chrome logos on them.
it is not a good way for sure, but I think it is good enough for most of the cases.

Can't use just look at the http response to get the image size in KB, and ignores the images below a certain size, or alternatively just grab the first few bytes of the image, enough to extract the format header (which I believe carries dimension/size info commonly?)
I've been thinking about this a lot. But the problem is that such a service would have to violate EULAs of many popular services like facebook and twitter.
I miss screenshots (or even a link) to show what the webapp would look like.

Maybe you guys should collaborate with the guys behind the paper ? they can offer their expertise - and if they built it inside micropython, that means many more people will use the technology - and they will get much more academic citations.

Exciting new SV market : U-Haul startups

I just checked the link is working
In Italy there is a wide (and ongoing) debate on this topic, because there is a clear disconnect between official statistics from those years and widespread public perception (which, tbh, includes mine). Unfortunately very little is translated, but a couple of Italian studies on the phenomenon are at http://www.treccani.it/enciclopedia/inflazione-e-inflazione-... and http://www.mi.camcom.it/l-euro-tra-inflazione-percepita-e-po...

In short, some specific sectors did increase prices dramatically in those years, and probably were the ones felt the most by everyday consumers (food, restaurants, retail etc). I would personally add that Italian statistics on economic elements are historically lacking, due to widespread tax evasion and unreported activity, and suffer from the huge economic disconnect between North and South.
That's another legal address. You knew that, didn't you?
What I'm curious about is future changes in user behavior in response to this kind of stuff. Private data, public data and the public-private grey areas like pseudonymous posts, access restricted (FB-like) profiles and such are getting leaked all the time.

Paranoia is definitely building. Awareness of how exposed people are is building. Yet, exposure is going up not down. People are posting more stuff online. I wonder if, for example, the cloud hack has impacted the trend of people taking nude picture at all? I suspect it hasn't. I suspect that none of these leaks will impact user behavior.

On one hand, a leak of an Ashley madison profile or salacious photos makes people aware that the danger exists. On the other, it confirms how widespread and normal it is to do these things.

Here's my (soft) prediction: Norms concerning fidelity and/or modesty will give before online behavior does. If the choice is stop sending nudie pictures or stop getting embarrassed when they leak, we'll go for the latter. For infidelity… maybe strict monogamy will soften as a norm.
Robots Will Steal Our Jobs, but They'll Give Us New Ones
EULAs are never legally binding, and especially not for someone who is 1) not currently a consenting user, and 2) invoking a right.

So in the EU, if current legislation projects bear fruit, a case could probably be made for implementing this under the protection of the right to be forgotten, and there would be very little those services could do to prevent it.
Anyone else think this is funny?
I also read that as sarcasm
Introverts usually get less practise at managing social situations because they need more time alone, but that doesn't mean they can't be good at being social. :)
Not sure if you saw my other comment below but this is a major goal for us with Elemental. We're not there today, because we're working through the best way to componentize the CSS for each module while retaining a common base for variables & customisation (i.e themes).

The most likely outcome will be to go with the "css in components" approach (w/ Radium, I expect) and maybe a base / "foundational" optional stylesheet for typography / etc. Still working it out though - all today's viable approaches have lots of pros and cons.
Maybe they are gone. Haven't checked lately :-)
They've got a version of Windows 10 that runs reasonably well on the Raspberry PI 2 and I imagine most chromebook like devices have better specs that the RPi2.
Think about how easy it would be to ruin someones reputation by signing them up for all kinds of shady services and then waiting for the (inevitable) breach.

Of course that possibility will not stop the witchhunt but I'm fairly sure that at least a small percentage of the people in that database have no idea they're even in it.

They may very well come naturally (they do for me), but they carry a cost that must be repaid later with some alone time (they do for me).
I created this with hope to bring some joy to people who are not only interested in CS subjects but also other fields. People who enjoy puzzles/riddles/crypto challenges. You'll learn something from all fields of science, math, art, literature and history. I hope you will work together with others and in the process maybe make some friends. Have fun :)

Allow me to barge in with my armchar financial analysis ...

If you check the Baltic Dry Index , it's started dropping in the past few weeks indicating a slowdown in global shipping. Similar for crude prices.

There was a similar pattern in 2008 (though the reasons this time are a bit different) with crude and the Baltic index starting to tumble in August before the market nosedived in September. Not that we will repeat 2008 but we definitely have a leading indicator for renewed weakness in the global economy.
Did Apple Lie About Your Privacy?
Last time I read something about this, it was specifically the original underground sites and trackers which were banning Windows 10 users. Not sites like TPB, KAT, etc.

Any news on if this has changed?
I see a lot of responses, and those on the top are mostly bashing Toptal.

### First
Let me tell you something about the interview process, because I see the most hate comes from that. It is consisted of 4 parts:
1. Initial interview (basic communication) - this is where they see do you know English language enough to do this.
2. Codillity challenge - 90 min to solve 3 problems. This is hard. Yes, many will say that this is nothing like they use in every day developing, but every developer should be able to do at least 1 problem.
3. Skype challenge - 2x20 min to solve 2 problems. This is way easier then Codillity.
4. Project - you get a small project to develop using desired technologies. And then you present it in a 10 min Skype presentation.

Basically the Codillity challenge is the hardest. But it is not something that you can't do or learn. Famous 3% is just a marketing trick. They don't say 3% of all developers in the world, but 3% of all developers that applied to Toptal. Yes, it is a marketing trick and everyone use those.

### Second
You don't know how much Toptal is charging for your services. You only know how much you get from TT and client knows how much he is paying TT. And in this gap the TT is getting money.

### Third
Honestly, I do not understand people who live in USA or any other developed country and would work for TT. I live in a country, where the average net pay is $400 per month. Yes, and I am not kidding. As a developer I would maybe get twice as that. And on TT I earn that in a week.
If I had the luck to be born in a better country I would never considered TT.
There is a small chance that you would get from TT what you charge on your own. Even if you get $120 per hour, you can know that TT is charging the client at least $180.

### Fourth
From my perspective TT is working very well. I have an opportunity to earn decent money, I can travel, organize my time better, etc.
There are downsides, like any other freelancing job, but I don't have to mention those.
Yeah -- it's the digital equivalent of scribbling someone's phone number on the wall in a men's bathroom stall:

Apple does this when testing a new feature in both iOS and Mac OS. They make it a private frame work and test it in 1 or 2 of their own apps until the feel it is fit to release for everyone.
This is an overkill I believe. Are Android devices banned from torrent sites? Chromebooks? Windows 10 is a cloud-based operating system, as is Android and ChromeOS -- most of the code runs locally, but it heavily relies on cloud functionality.

It is extremely naive to think that if MS tells you in the EULA that many services in the OS work based on the user behavior suddenly opens up new doors for spying. If MS wanted to spy on you, they could have done that already (they might or might not, I don't know, but it's certainly not the EULA that prevents them from doing that).

/snarky comment:

I guess most people on the torrent sites already give full permissions to the torchlight app on their phone.

Not really an issue. If that's your real email they're using, you still need to verify it (many services request that as a way to confirm the account creation).
That Ashley Madison data is full of unconfirmed addresses. I think Troy Hunt's tool excludes them.
In most (Western) countries you have a right to privacy when there is a reasonable expectation to privacy. What you do on the public streets is presumably something you don't mind the people seeing.

What you are suggesting is analogous to yelling out a personal secret and then being mad that people "eavesdropped".

In this case; http://www.nzherald.co.nz/entertainment/news/article.cfm?c_i... you might call it funny. But I'd probably call it sad.

I don't think that exposing peoples private lives, even though they did something wrong, on this scale is remotely funny. I think it is quite sad. It does not only effect the members of the site, but also their families, the company they work at, etc.. This breach has so much collateral damage.

I can not really understand how it is funny.

I very much doubt any directive regarding the right to be forgotten will give you the right to use fake information. It's essentially inviting fraud.

What you're criticising doesn't sound like what he did, though. The political stream he mentioned in the title was coverage of a specific event.
