Not to you, but to your users. If you don't care about your users' well-being, well...

> use the code to create a commercial product

I wish people who oppose the AGPL didn't see mistreating their customers as the only way of being commercial. There are several examples of commercial AGPL software.

Yes, hiding the source code and forbidding them from copying the source code is mistreating them. If you are not doing anything wrong, then why are you hiding the source code? When software is naturally copyable, why are you denying them this natural right?

> Both this more or less guarantees you get no patches back to your open source project

There are also plenty of examples of copylefted projects getting even more patches than corresponding non-copylefted projects. There's a popular kernel called Linux that is copylefted and gets tons of industry-backed patches. People have been using that bugbear for as long as copyleft has existed. Mailpile got that threat when it switched to AGPL-only and so far its contributions haven't slowed down.

As an outsider, here is my view: The government builds certain services with the intent that hopefully as few people need them as possible. Such as Prisons, Hospitals, etc. The government is motivated to make an effort to ensure people don't end up there.

When prisons are privatized and profit-driven, what motivation does one have to keep people away from them? This is not a co-incidence that the US has a high rate of incarceration and the prisons are privatized. From what I see and hear, there is little effort in rehabilitating prisoners, they're just being punished.

Does anyone know the rate of US prisoners re-offending? I'd wager that it's quite high compared to other countries where rehabilitation is the prime purpose of prisons.

The continued eradication of Poliovirus is a testament to the almost inhuman tenacity of the medical and perimedical community that's dedicated so much of their time and professional lives to the issue.

There's been a number of other public nuisance / threat viruses that haven't fared so well in recent years. HIV among them; treatment has improved so significantly that the previous risk communication ethos, "avoid risky behaviors or you might die," just doesn't cut the mustard anymore.

Transmission reductions have stalled in adolescent to middle-aged groups is still high and over the total population looks to have been stalled for some time.[1] CDC [2] and other reporting numbers show it stalled for most of the last 15 years.

I thought there was a problem with the Taliban fighting against polio-eradication efforts due to the Bin Laden thing? I would guess that they might need some new tactics to deal with that?

Maybe the CIA is secretly doing some work to make itself look less bad and kill an enemy that used to murder American children? Sounds like a decision they might plausibly make.

Or maybe they're just staying out of the way and we happen to have a bunch of nurses accepting the risk of violent death.
So what you're saying is ESPN is doomed to a slow death as more people cut the cord and no longer subsidize ESPN viewers (who won't pay what it actually costs).

Great video, the nature article is much more informative than the one linked.

From the nature article, it seems this was the first video of natural bidirectional lightning, not triggered by rockets or aircraft: "In contrast to studies of rocket-triggered lightning and lightning initiated by aircraft, which found delays of 3–6 ms between the onset of negative and positive leader branches, this natural event exhibited a delay of less than 90 μs (i.e. one video image)."

This was a negative polarity lightning strike. the most common type. Less than 5% of lightning is positive polarity but they can carry ten times the charge and exceed a billion volts of potential.

When you read about people surviving lightning strikes it's almost certainly a negative polarity strike. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lightning#Positive_and_negativ...

Your two point list is silly. Consumer cars & SUVs can go 0-60 in under 10 seconds in almost all cases, and the fact that the brake can overcome that acceleration is great, except it takes time, and within the time between unexpected acceleration and stopping damage/injuries/death can occur.

I had a water bottle fall onto my right leg while turning, this caused a sudden but short lived acceleration (e.g. 10 MpH of unexpected acceleration for less than 1 second), this was enough to cause me to mount the curb, and do some decent property/car damage (thank god nobody was on the curb). The brakes worked perfectly, and stopped the car, but it does show how much damage even a tiny burst of unexpected acceleration can do (the entire incident was under 5-10 seconds).

It honestly boggles my mind that someone can dismiss any length of unexpected acceleration because "cars [aren't] 700 hp Supras." Consumer cars are plenty powerful enough to cause injury and death due to any length (even 1 second) of unexpected acceleration at the wrong moment. Sure, if you're going straight on the freeway then you aren't going to even notice, but in a car park, while turning, or stopped at a school crossing, the brake's ability to overcome the engine are largely irrelevant since you won't be expecting it.

I think they are going to have to go direct because I don't think the networks will have the money to keep up with those contracts. Both the NFL and MLB already have direct to the customer paid feeds.
One could argue they're more likely to be traffickers when ON duty. Who's going to pull over the police and search them for drugs?
The one thing I don't totally understand about the Kubernetes scaling issue is that you can ostensibly use Mesos as the scheduler for Kubernetes, which naively to me seems like it would allow Kubernetes to scale to the same size as Mesos, or is the DNS and Service stuff the part that doesn't scale as well?

The NBA has a salary cap, unlike the MLB. Some say it forces players like LeBron to play for less than they are worth.
NL doesn't have stricter asylum laws than Germany, despite the big mouth of the guy you just mentioned. I'm also skeptical about the 1.5 million figure. People with a political agenda are putting intimidating figures like that in the media.

Fewer come here because of the location - this would only be your first entry point in the EU if you arrive at the airport - and the fact that it's not a famous, charismatic country. They want to go where they have friends and family first, failing that, they want to go to an English speaking country, failing that, next choice are Germany and France. Any other place they end up is mostly settling for what happens to work out.

Any way, I used to get a similar (less extreme) treatment way back in the 90's, before refugees were an issue.

Edit: and I obviously don't look like a refugee. The events destribed by the OP were obviously a drug bust.
Ask HN: I have a business idea, what now?
​I'm a finance professional with strong business acumen, currently going stale in a wannabe innovative media cooperation in Germany. I somehow have a"visionary" business idea, which in my opinion is solving a problem and has the potential to reshape the rules of how we do...something.

I this regard I have two questions:

In the first step, where can I go or whom to speak to to challenge my idea and find feedback? Where to find people that are experienced and see chances, risks and the big picture from investor/scale point of view giving me confidence to start or killing the vision. How to prevent those people from staling the idea? Those people should also help me to precisely define the idea, since currently Is kind of "blurry"

I see all of this as prerequisite for starting the usual process, writing a business plan, composing a pitch presentation, pitch it to investors.

Second: I have zero tech experience, where to find hackers/co-founders and where are all the really cool people that can tell me what is feasible from technical point of view? Must I move to Berlin or take a loan to spend a few week in Silicon Valley?

Somehow...the first and second questions also go together. :-)

Thank you everybody!
I actually almost submitted something in that vein once. I'd type

and get

As it turns out, I need Alt+1 to type a pipe character in my keyboard. If I'm not quick enough releasing the Alt key, I'll type Alt+Space instead of just Space, which inserts a Non-breaking space[1] in Mac. This character is not a space, and therefore it gave me a weird "command not found" error.

This lasted for months until I found out what the problem was - given that it was a combination of my keyboard settings and OS, finding the root of the error took quite some time. The hint? The "command not found" error had an extra space in front of the unknown command.

I was "controlled" once at Sendlingertor on my way to work one morning. As I turned a cornet, I noticed two large white cops ~20 meters away. I made the briefest of eye contact before looking away/putting my head down and walking with purpose to my exit escalators. They intercepted me and asked for ID. I answered 'um, I have to get to work'. One officer laughed and said 'that doesn't really matter'.

I handed my UK drivers license. They asked me if I had an arrest record, but with my poor German, I thought they meant if I was registered in Munich, so I mumbled an affirmative. One officer stepped back to radio in my details and check my record. The other asked me if I had any drugs. I said no. He asked me to show him the inside folds of my wallet and the contents of my pocket. He didn't actually actively search me himself, just made me show him that I didn't have any drugs squirreled away.

The whole thing was surreal and over in 3-4 minutes. Streams of workers walking by during the whole event. I was shaking with adrenaline and itching to protest against this unprovoked intrusion into my life. But I stayed calm and they moved on. It was a weird experience. I'm only glad that they didn't actively search me, it would have made the whole thing even more demeaning.

I assume I was singled out for three reasons:
- My baggy pants, loose tshirt combination
- My slightly not white enough skin color.
- The ridiculous and increased police presence that always seems to surround Munich a few times a year (usually around the time of the Munich Security Conference but not always: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Munich_Security_Conference).

FWIW, I've never had problems with other Munich civil servants. They are usually just doing their work, and if you're polite/pleasant, it's usually reciprocated. The police on the other hand seem to have a bug up their ass (except during Oktoberfest, where they also seem more relaxed). I have a dark skinned friend in Munich who gets controlled every few months. Once while eating his lunch in tiny park in the heart of Munich on a sunny day surrounded by other citizens!

When bidding out with micro-payments using any criteria besides lowest cost requires enough additional justification and paperwork to eliminate the acquisition advantages of micro-payments.
Im saying that the conclusion will never be correct if we try categorize men, particularly young men, as having a reproductive strategy which research has shown as not true for humans.

Risk behavior is complex concept, goes well beyond reproductive strategies. Behavior is significant more effected by culture than genes, and culture is effected by gender identification rather than sex.

Would you be surprised if transgenders has a identical risk taking behavior in relation to the gender which they identify themselves as? Would you be surprised if sexual presence has no impact at all? In both cases it would strongly imply that reproductive strategy has no impact on risk taking behavior.

Some explanation for the claimed propensity of men taking higher risk would be that being successful is more rewarded socially for men then women, while averageness and failure is generally socially more for men than women. Finding root causes for that social pressure is harder, but my guess is that it has both biological reasons and historical ones.
True. Funny thing that may or may not be a motivating factor. Except for Google and Facebook, a lot of recent IPOs are trading below their offer price. Maybe the bigger I-bank clients recognize this (even mutual funds) so they are buying at the pre-IPO in late financing rounds. However, they still need someone to buy at the IPO, and who better than Joe Public?

I kind of disagree. That is, I suspect this is wrong but I don't think we really know.

The problem with imagining increased consumption is that we tend to imagine frivolous consumption. There are non frivolous things tot consumer too. Health, for example. We have a pretty greedy appetite for health "consumption." If we can afford more of that we will. Elderly care is another thing people struggle to afford enough of. Education…

I don't think consumption capacity is really the issue. I think the ability of the great majority to contribute economically to a sufficient degree that they can have a non-humiliating piece of the pie. Jobs, basically.
No. All terrorism is about changing behavior. Terrorists want you to either start doing something or want you to stop doing something. Killing, maiming or treats of killing or maiming are means to that end.
A guy with an iPhone 6s can probably shoot the NBA game about as well as a high end camera in the 90s, shit, it even does slomotion without post-processing. If ESPN is going to pay Kobe Bryant[0] money for a 9 year TV contract, it is because the cable lines are already run, it is only going to get cheaper to produce and transmit this television, and the value of a game takes about a 90% haircut after 24 hours having virtually no rebroadcast appeal, except for playoffs.

This is a symptom of people doing more with less, rent collectors collecting rent, and the NBA beeing smart enough to lock this shit down. I mean, do you think cable television can make it 9 more years? Like, they still bundle a fucking phone in with that shit because voip makes it virtually free, but fuck if I am going to set up a land line for spammers to call me on. People like sports and watch them live so almost no one, at least no one I know, torrents the passed year and a half of Golden State Warriors games and binges them over a weekend.

I feel like you're ignoring a whole host of variables with a reductionist statement like "they commit more crimes proportionally". First of all, how do you compare what "more crimes" is proportionally? Different countries have vastly different definitions of what constitutes a crime, and further, different penalties for those crimes.

Even if you did isolate those factors, it's still not really an answer to "why does this happen more here than there?" You're answer is, essentially, "because it happens more often there."

Edit: After rereading the second paragraph I realize that you do seem to be pointing towards solutions to the root cause of crime rates, but I find the first statement confusing in light of that.
No worries. If you want to learn more, I can put you in touch with the Diego or Lattice teams.

I should also note in passing that Diego can place and manage Docker containers, Windows .NET apps and classic buildpack-staged apps, with the architectural flexibility to extend to more kinds of managed resources (eg, with the right backend, it could manage unikernel apps). That alone sets it apart from the pack.

All the things I'm talking about can be found by scrolling down this page and typing "Uber" in the search bar, filtering for stories from past few years. We've been discussing all the shenanigans Uber has been pulling over the years here, on HN. There was a lot of things, including:

- sabotaging competition, at some point even hiring people to do it and providing them with burner iPhones and credit cards

- threatening journalists

- privacy issues

- tax evasion and the whole contractor vs. employee thing

- (purposefully) basing their business on drivers without proper insurance

- abusive rating system (though here I'm not sure if this isn't simply a good idea with very hard to solve side effects)

There was also a long article posted here few months ago that detailed the way Uber squeezes the money out of the drivers (already locked-in by car loans they were encouraged to take) once they establish their market domination.

And note, I am not denying that the current system is corrupt and barely functioning. I'm happy that it's getting upturned. But we've been doing it in Europe for some years now, and it didn't require anyone to behave like this.
It's interesting that VW cars have been taken off the road for unintended acceleration. Also that quickcheck was used to find many timing related bugs between software components that VW uses. It was used after the models were taken off the road. There are other models still not recalled using similar software from the same era.
>and the prisons are privatized.

That is not true.
