I used my experience to show how I was treated. I see I was downvoted. For example Christianity is criticized for not supporting Evolution, well at least Fundamentalism Christianity still believes in Creationism. Some forms of Christianity believe in Evolution.

When you say you respect people who think they came from monkeys, well monkeys and Human Beings are modern creations in evolution and had a 'missing link' that was common that branched one way and then branched another way. Both monkeys and Human Beings evolved from a common ancestor some millions of years ago etc. It isn't correct to say Human beings evolved from Monkeys, but it is correct to say Human Beings and Monkeys evolved from a common ancestor that was a mammal.

Understanding Evolution better would help you understand the people who believe in it. They don't for example claim other human beings are animals, but that human beings evolved from other forms of life on the planet.

I see now that you are from another nation, in the USA and in the west there has been a movement away from religion and into atheism or at least non-practicing religions in the youth. That means some of them criticize any religion including yours for example. Many give up religion in order to focus on their careers or just don't see any evidence of God, etc and lose faith.

You will find all sorts of VCs out there, if you think they won't respect you because of your religion, you don't have to take their money and can find a different VC.

All human beings are equal under the laws in the USA, and we have free speech here were someone can say something that offends you and they have freedom of speech to say it. It doesn't mean you have to agree with them or even like them. Social Media brings this out and people say stuff that they later regret.

A good VC should follow public relations and not speak ill of any group of people. Not be biased in any way. But people speak their opinions on the Internet and sometimes say things that offend others.
In real life the do align perfectly, otherwise they will get stuck.

Here there are off a bit because 1. I didn't get the sizes absolutely right as I modeled it in Blender and not in a real CAD (like Gearotic) and 2. The gear simulation is iterative so some floating point error accumulates over time.
My mother is wheelchair bound. A stair climbing powered wheelchair would be useful to get over 1-2 small steps at restaurants. She would never in a million years use it for the use case in the video. Most people don't realize how scary it is even to go up and down steep wheelchair ramps in a power chair (especially for elderly). Going up, as shown in the video, is one thing - going down is probably terrifying. For instance, to account for a steep decline, you have to tilt the seat back at an extreme angle. You can no longer see where you're going! It is probably most similar to going up the lift hill on a roller coaster where you're tilted back looking up at the sky.... except you're going down in a direction you cannot see, you're in full control and you can easily screw up at any moment if you get nervous and panic. It's not something the person in the chair can easily do on their own.

In the USA, there's a large influx of amputees because of the recent wars. I can imagine most of those younger men and women can handle climbing stairs in this thing, but at the same time most of them are fit enough to wear prosthetics and can probably just walk up.

So it is a problem, but I think the solution has to involve making the person in the chair feel 100% safe and comfortable.
No. Its a simple matter of respect.

You can clearly see this individual disrespect a group you identify with.

Regardless of the type of group. You can't have that around.

I've not witnessed ethnic bias in my investor dealings. I'd like to think its all about the Benjamin's.

The alternative is to own your product, build what your customers will pay for. Good, respectful investors will find you & you can pick from them.

First thing I do when using Blender on a new machine is go into the settings and turn on "Emulate 3 Button Mouse". That makes it so you can Alt+Click to rotate the camera instead of using the middle mouse button. No idea why it's not on by default, since the Alt modifier isn't really used anywhere else (especially in the context of a mouse click)
If you ever charged $250 an hour (even if that was the "I hate you go away" rate), then congrats, that's your new hourly rate. Everyone paying less is getting a screaming deal on the friends and family plan.

Try charging more for new clients, and walking your rate up each year for existing clients. In my experience this results in one awkward phone call/email exchange a year and approximately zero negative side effects.

This is how I brought my rate from $30 an hour to $90, also in the Midwest.
The BBC says that phone calls were also first tracked in Iraq in 2005 during the surge, and that this technique was then brought to the US in 2006; that would be somehow similar with the story of the Philippines as playground for new surveillance techniques.

looks like a pattern: the trick is introduced in some far away colony where judicial oversight is weaker, in the colonies it turns out to be a big success; the success story is then used to sell the same trick at home.
The trouble with low-vig sites is that it attracts sharks but very few fish care about the vig. As such, a low-vig site ends up with such a bad shark/fish ratio that it's actually lower profit for sharks than a higher vig site that pumps some of that revenue into advertising, and deposit bonuses.
It sounds to me like you're saying I overlooked that might does, in fact, make right. I wasn't even saying our forcing down the plane was wrong.

I was pointing out that we were manifestly willing to go to substantial lengths to make sure Snowden did not get from Russia to Ecuador - lengths that were not well represented by leaving it at "a plane".
They looked at the data. In Work Rules!, Laszlo Bock (head of People Operations at Google) writes:

« So in 2007 we started looking for themes across the ten thousand or so people we had hired, as well as the millions we didn’t. In addition to testing technical hires on their engineering ability, we realized that there were four distinct attributes that predicted whether someone would be successful at Google:

1. General Cognitive Ability. Not surprisingly, we want smart people who can learn and adapt to new situations. Remember that this is about understanding how candidates have solved hard problems in real life and how they learn, not checking GPAs and SATs. »

The three others are Leadership, "Googleyness" and Role-Related Knowledge.
Sure: I wrote it in Typescript, modeled everything in Blender and rendered with three.js. The simulation logic itself it in https://github.com/nikital/clock/blob/master/src/mechanics.t.... That code is a bit messy but it gets the job done :)
"Just give cash" strips people of their dignity and practically ensures they will become permanent wards of the state, as they are left to wallow in shame and without the guidance they need to substantially improve their situation.

Every welfare recipient should have a shrewd case worker that dispenses welfare as needed, sees that the recipient is really doing all they can to be self-sufficient, and creates opportunities where the recipient can make a contribution back for the gifts they receive (like volunteering at the food bank once a week), tailored specifically to the recipient's condition.

You are not forced to handle errors. Or do you check for the errors returned by fmt.Print? I guess not.

This was my point: In many areas go forces the developer to the right thing (no unnecessary imports, gofmt...) and does not rely on developers discipline. But when i comes to error handling it does.

What i would wish for is some extended error handling supported by the compiler. I don't want a stack trace, but the compiler easily could produce for example a line number where the error was returned.

Our social structure is broken. In a world that wasn't falling apart, such cases would be the responsibility of the family, and the family would have the authority to see it dealt with adequately. That's the way it's supposed to work, and the way it has worked through most of successful human history.

As many Westerners have stopped realizing what family life is, they have done all they can to offload these familial responsibilities onto the state so that they can have greater individual independence. A big loss for us, and I don't think we can hang on much longer.

To be clear, I'm not saying you're not doing enough, as I obviously don't know you or your family. I'm commenting that even if you were doing all you could (and you probably are), the social support isn't there to make it work.
I live in Washington, DC and I'm from Cleveland (a place once so polluted that a river caught on fire). I was taken a back by the pollution in Europe on a vacation a few years ago. I had daily coughing fits in Paris. I walk around an American city every day. There is a lot that European cities do better than American ones, but air quality is not one. You can really notice the difference.
Then there are countries like Poland where prisons look better than hospitals, at least in terms of food quality and access to entertainment. Complaining about it is a popular pastime here.

I find that a weird sentence in an otherwise carefully written article. The author is talking about writing software which does a lot of socket IO. So I would expect the performance discussion to make some reference to this; I assume what he's talking about in the quote is the behavior of pure CPU-bound code but he doesn't discuss to what extent this is really relevant to his project.
So proofread it yourself, or stop complaining about stuff people give you for free.
The manufacturers are widely using the term "drone". Examples:

http://axisdrones.com

http://www.dji.com

http://www.bladehelis.com/Drones/

I don't think you have much chance of getting the press to use a different term if the manufacturers aren't on board.
What do you mean by "stay in their network", when it comes to sending emails? Google is not in the business of being a paid mass email sender for businesses. What business email they handle is specifically for being the email host for a business's internal email, not sending their newsletter / marketing / account notifications / whatever else.
Nice. It seems that small spring is driving the "ticking" of the clock, so does the winding of the springs wind both the large and small spring? Also, it's surprising to me how the small spring could tick accurately, since I would think that it's rate of oscillation changes as the spring unwinds, so that you cannot rely on each tick being a constant amount of time. How is the problem avoided or mitigated?
You're right up to the point where you believe that the government should be dispensing cash to the parents. The parents must become self-sufficient if they're to adequately govern their home. People in dire need can be presented with necessities, but should probably not be presented with cash. A welfare case worker should be in charge of identifying "necessities" and given broad leeway to do so, so the family can lift out.
If you are asking if Swift is ready for prime time I'd say that it is. Of course there are many more considerations than that when decided on what language to use for a project. Consider your experience, timeline expectations and if you are familiar with the problem space or type of application or not. Introducing too many unfamiliar technologies or trying to solve hard problems with new tools you don't know well is a good way to get poor outcomes or at the very least eat up more time than expected.

Product Hunt Is Everywhere – This Is How It Got There
If they're telling you to skip church or they'll pull funding, that's one thing...but I'm thinking (based on the disjointed hints about "being repsectful to themselves") and whatnot, this is just run-of-the-mill "This VC disagrees with my religious beliefs, maybe drinks more than I do, etc.".

People that put religion before business are not making profitable choices.

What I would really like is, when someone calls me, a voice menu saying "You've reached David's phone. If this is an emergency or he's expecting your call, press 1 to ring through. Otherwise, press 3 to set up a time to call, or 7 to leave a message."
There are two questions you should be asking yourself:

1. Will a person in your target market, when cherry-picking a couple examples they care about, say "Wow, these results are way better than what I would've found myself!"?

2. Are there enough people in your target market to justify the economics of your system?

Answer #2 first, and then put all your effort into making #1 come true.

Google worked because everybody searches the web, and Google was clearly better than rival search engines. Many metric-based businesses fail because not enough people care about the metrics to make enough money; the remainder fail because they're not a noticeable-enough improvement on the status quo.

Defense of what?

> What does President Lessig do during the first 100 days of his Presidency if war breaks out?

He does what EVERY President does. 100 days or not (how are the # of days relevant? howabout 3! sounds a lot like political hand waving). What happens is surely that he makes a statement and the executive branch provides function. He's not a general, but he can make individual decisions just like any successor. His death or resignation doesn't cripple the country, as much as some might fantasize.

The complexity you are talking about is the same religious belief that portends that a POTUS is somehow holding the nation together. More irony, calling my characterization simplistic.

The mainspring provides all the mechanical energy. The small spring is called the escapement, it spins one way, then back the other at a set frequency (typically 4, 6, or 8 times per second), letting the energy of the mainspring 'escape' gradually (instead of unwinding all at once, in a rush).

"Off-Topic: Most stories about politics, or crime, or sports, unless they're evidence of some interesting new phenomenon. "

That goes even when it's liberal bashing against a Republican.

The OP's post should be removed or HN's moderators are ignoring the rules in favor of the US Democratic party by showing favoritism and thus reflecting negatively on the YCombinator business.
I may have been a little condescending in my response, but I stand behind my point. You listed a bunch of surface level complaints about the structure of the text which had little to do with the content. They weren't constructive at all.

And it's worth pointing out that though HN doesn't have many guidelines, complaining about downvotes and that a submission isn't appropriate are two of the things that they ask people not to do (https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html).

Yeah, but somehow it's only one group of people who seems to call the shots: Those with a disdain for the poor, the weak, the ill, the black and women.
Who cares if they are just mocking or making a light fun of religion/s. All religions have caused a lot of pain around the world; now it is time for religions to be mocked. Unless they are hateful, take the money.

And no smart VC will ever fund founders just because of ethnicity. If they do, you probably don't want to deal with them anyways.
Great point. In a way there's a kind of "monsterization" of prisoners. They obviously hurt someone and broke the social contract to end up there right? As children our immediate response to wrongdoing is violence because that's the only way we know how to deal with it; she took my toy, thus I will hit her for taking it. However as adults we learn that punishment isn't always apt, hence the decreased popularity of corporal punishment.

It's asking a lot of people to make them separate their personal feelings from policy changes, and as the article shows, in America there isn't really a buffer between informed decision-makers and the general public. Imagine we let citizens replace the FDA, instead of controlled studies we'd get people reporting how something makes them feel or how a relative of a relative said so-and-so is good for them.

Lastly the whole image of a criminal and the prison system is wrong: they're often portrayed in media as tattooed scumbags and there are constant jokes about "dropping the soap" and getting raped in the ass. It points towards a huge dehumanization; imagine we talked about others like that, saying things like they're getting what they deserved. Prison itself has replaced rehabilitation and it entails immoral treatment from guards and fellow inmates.
Seems this could play quite well with IPFS.

I don't see why this has to be complicated. A type is just a (potentially infinite) set of values. Notice, then, that a (pure) function is just a way to map one set of values to another set of values.
First off, it's incredibly arrogant to say you pray for people to "find the right path", and incredibly disrespectful. That's completely disrespectful. Not to mention the insult to atheists, it's completely ridiculous.

Please tell the VC that you don't want their money, since obviously you're too proud to to business.

I don't know that I'd agree that education, at least in the general sense of a 4 year degree, is obviously more effective that cash. We have an enormous number of people with bachelor degrees that are serving food, and PhDs that are slinging building websites(which is challenging but is not a skill much improved by a Ph.D.)

What type of education did you have in mind?
It depends on the context. If someone is openly hostile in a public setting, then no. They're probably an asshole.

If they mock religion in private, or on Facebook or some other stupid thing, whatever. A lot of people have negative feelings about some religions or political groups, but most of us manage to be polite and professional when we go outside.
Thanks for the explanation :)
> I don't think it's reasonable to have the government give money directly to individuals in the tribe.

Well, in some tribes there is economic inequality due to local corruption. So this isn't really a one-size-fits-all solution. It works out well when the local government is actually working for the people (vs. just for itself + relatives).
Hmm, don't see a big deal. Maybe it is a big deal to someone striving for some engineering beauty and consistency, but in every day life, centimeters and decimeters even are popular because they relate to sizes on human scale -- size of a palm, thickness of a finger and so on.

But I grew up with those units and didn't encounter them first in the university or high school. Just have everything be divisible by 10 is easy enough and knowing the prefixes is easy.

I was very confused and still am by inches, yards, stones, pounds, ounces, gallons. I don't know how many in each of each.
