Ask HN: How do I promote an app with little/no money?
Hello everyone, I just developed an android app, and realized I know nothing about marketing. Without money, how would you go about promoting it?

Random forests are a very powerful machine learning method that has proven to give excellent performance with very little tuning. Neural networks with many layers (aka deep learning) is the new frontier of machine learning - they are very powerful but require extensive tuning (the architecture of the network) and lots of examples before they become practical.

In this paper, the authors combine the two methods - they basically stack a random forest on top of a neural network, and obtain some cutting edge results. One of the main theoretical results in the paper is that they propose a differentiable (which means you can use gradient-based optimization techniques) technique to optimize the parameters of the trees (which are the building blocks of the random forest).

This quote has stuck with me ever since I first saw it:

"C’est l’histoire d’un homme qui tombe d’un immeuble de cinquante étages. Le mec, au fur et à mesure de sa chute se répète sans cesse pour se rassurer : jusqu’ici tout va bien, jusqu’ici tout va bien, jusqu’ici tout va bien.
Mais l'important n’est pas la chute, c’est l’atterrissage."

Which loosely translates as:

"This is the story of a man falling from a fifty-story building. The guy, during his fall reassures himself by constantly repeating: so far so good, so far so good, so far so good.

But the important thing is not the fall, it's the landing."

I'm not really into the geopolitics and recent news, but what's wrong with this plan? Hopefully the future European governments will be up to something along those lines rather than balkanization followed by the final solution.

1. Move all illegal migrants to a heavily guarded area akin to the Gaza Strip. All EU members would pay for building and maintaining the camps. Base the camps in a non-EU country so that drastic measures could be taken in case situation gets out of control.

2. Don't grant any new citizenships to legal migrants from high-risk countries, instead issue permanent residence permits and then deport anybody suspected of radicalization.

3. Perform full-scale military intervention in the Middle East to restore the old order. Ideally make deal with Russians and Syrian government to take care of the most dirty tasks.

4. Move migrants back to their homeland.
Your stigmatising language around mental illness means I'm unable to answer this question and stay within HN rules. Just remember that many of those people didn't have signs of mental illness and were not known to MH services; and that people with mental illness are more likely to be the victims of violence than the perpetrators of violence.

But the US has had doctors killed and medical clinics bombed by Christian groups. Anti-abortionist protesters try to deny women their reproductive rights and regularly threaten doctors and nurses and admin staff at medical clinics. (This is a war crime if a state does it.)

Here's what the FBI said in 2002: https://www.fbi.gov/news/testimony/the-terrorist-threat-conf...

> At the same time, the United States also faces significant challenges from domestic terrorists. In fact, between 1980 and 2000, the FBI recorded 335 incidents or suspected incidents of terrorism in this country. Of these, 247 were attributed to domestic terrorists, while 88 were determined to be international in nature.

Reminds me of a question I have been wondering about: Can you formally specify what is the purpose of a suitcase?

In principle, you could dump all your clothes, toiletries, etc. in a pile on the airport checkin counter, and if system were organized enough, it could deliver all your stuff to hawaii and lay it all out on the hotel bed for you.

E.g., a robot would scan all your belongings at the airport, and dump them all into a big pipe... each item would get properly routed to your hotel room... kinda like how the internets work!

Is it just a question of organization? "Everything in this suitcase belongs to this person and should move together to the same destination."
No, it works on Android too but only for songs that are marked as allowing it. I know because I have used it on my Moto X 2014.
my argument is that art isn't fundamentally different from code in this respect.

If you have a very small patch that obviously fixes something broken and doesn't change much else, you are gonna have an easy time, be that change art or code. And as you said, either way, that's how you should probably start. Little things.

Either way, if you want to make major changes, be those changes in art or code, you are going to meet resistance, especially if you don't already have social capital built up in the project by making lots of smaller changes.

Getting your changes upstream in a open-source project is a fundamentally social process. If you show up with a bunch of patches and then leave, well, a lot of your work is probably not going to get used. Hell, even if you do everything right, a lot of your work isn't going to get used. That's just how things work.

Positioning of buttons on iOS is a big problem.

For instance, when on a phone call and you show the numeric keypad, there is no sane reason to make the "Hide" function a microscopic text label that is a finger-width away from the HANG-UP action. Functionally, these actions should be on opposite sides of the display from each other. I don't even think they placed it there for aesthetic reasons, since the Hide "button" just looks like an ugly hack.

Then there's positioning of keyboard keys. If I had a nickel for every time I deleted a character while trying to finish a word with "m", or every time I accidentally committed an action with incomplete text because of that stupid blue key! Instead of moving dangerous actions to the opposite end of the screen where they belong, too much effort was spent trying to emulate the precise layout of a real keyboard. I don't think users would complain at all if the "action" key was instead in the top-right corner, and if "backspace" was in the top-left corner.

The scrolling calendar widget is also a nasty example of poor positioning. Long after it was "improved" in iOS 7, I still can't create a single calendar event without doing the accidental-screw-up-date-instead-of-scroll action, usually with "helpful" automatic "corrections" for my change such as synchronizing the From and To times to both reflect my accidental date-change. Or if I'm really lucky, I don't even notice that I changed the time.

They need to step back and realize that design is how it works. Their interfaces are incredibly error-prone right now.
Buffer overflows are basically about memory corruption. They can lead to crashes, remote code execution, if run in privileged code to privilege escalation, etc.

Most modern operating systems have buffer overflow protection technologies such as ASLR. I tried recently exploiting a few guaranteed buffer overflows for fun, and it's getting irritatingly hard at least on Linux. Non-executable stack, *alloc functions have sanity checks, -fstack-protector provided canaries, ... It's possible to get past all that, but it takes a bit work.

I would be freaked if I was running some older operating system, and someone vendored a poorly compiled version of libpng. Windows applications are probably the scariest here, especially when run on older Windows servers...

Also, it might be worth adding that random forests are based on decision trees, which can be interpreted by humans.

While it's hard to interpret a random forest, it's still much more interpretable than a neural network. Maybe this model is also easier to interpret by humans.

Yes, this is the new (ab)normal, unfortunately. No one has any evidence whatsoever that all these hoops have any relevance to on the job performance. All we can do is push back. Be clear with HR on what you expect from the interview (I need to interview the company just as much as the company needs to interview me - if you give me 5 minutes to ask questions "at the end" I will not accept your offer). Even then you will walk into ambushes.

I can tell you that being honest about your treatment after the interview will win you no friends - more likely attacks on your character. So pleasant.

Anyway, if you need a job you just have to suck it up. If you have a job, I recommend pointing this out repeatedly - that you are not a supplicant, that your own, tiny measure of them is this interview process, and that if it goes poorly you will not be accepting a job offer even if offered one.

I remember discovering the iOS calculator has a lot more features when you rotate the device into landscape orientation: http://osxdaily.com/2011/12/29/iphone-scientific-calculator/ I haven't tried recent iOS versions so I don't know if it's changed. According to the comments there, everyone and their dog knew this from birth, but I think it should count as "hidden" functionality, and rotating to landscape is kind of like right-clicking.

That's what the vertically integrated delivery companies like Munchery do. Ultimately I think this model will win, since the food prep facility does not need to need to pay rent in a restaurant neighborhood, and the food can be designed for deliverability.
I think this reply thread is confusing the specific, i.e. the technique of 'mobbing', with the general, i.e. the (mis-management) approach to fixing issues with 'all hands to the pumps'.

The only thing the Unruly team is dogmatic about is delivering valuable software. The techniques they talk about are simply this - techniques.

In my work as a consultant there is rarely a 'one-size fits all' technique to developing a feature, but knowledge of several approaches is very valuable.

This is the purpose of the article - to allow you to consider the addition of 'mobbing' to your existing approaches of single development and pairing

Random forests are very difficult to interpret especially once you start having lots of trees.
When I took the basic physics sequence at MIT 40 years ago Special Relativity was a first semester elective and General Relativity in the seventh semester. You can derive much of SR with high school algebra and additional integration. But the GR field equations were rather hairy.

+1 to the comment here.

I see lots of discussions after code has been cut ('why this design?', 'why this library?', 'did you consider this?'), which would have been much more valuable to have as the code is being written.

With mobbing I'm thinking you can answer these questions and discuss opinions at the most appropriate time in the software creation lifecycle...

Depends on the domain. The first layer or two of a neural network can be fairly interpretable on image or spectrogram (sound) data, for example.

> Container hype is running high. Developers have flocked to the technology for more easily packaging applications and running them across various disparate environments.

It's a hype that should die in a fire bigger than the one reserved for Adobe Flash.

Many people will think they can just deploy a shitload of containers and be done... well, each and every single one of them has to be maintained, updated for security fixes...

Not to mention the likely possibility of breaking API changes in the container version. vagrant/puppet I'm looking at you, nothing is worse than having to figure out which ancient version of vagrant and puppet was used at creation in order to get the system running again. Or, well, look five years in the future, and hope today's hyped container solution will still be present then.

Fuck containers, get a properly managed ordinary Debian server and save yourself a lot of headaches.

Emus vs. Humans: The Great Emu War of 1932
This is a common refrain, but is it possible that adults have learned valid paradigms that make using the iPhone as it is today, more difficult? If you want to design for 5-year-olds and have them retain that forever, I guess it can work, but maybe it's a design failure if the people who actually buy your product have a harder time using it.

To use another analogy, it's somewhat like saying "Well, people literate in a left-to-right language have no problem using it." Great, but presumably Apple was aiming for a global audience, so pointing out success stories in some subsections of that audience does not mean they succeeded overall.

I can invent on the spot 10 uses for a suitcase that have nothing to do with moving things belonging to a single person together. First of all, you may have a couple packing their items in one suitcase. The suitcase may be used as a chair, as a table, as a structural support, to protect from rain, sun, lasers, alpha and beta radiation, it can be used as a weapon or as a shield, as a makeshift hammer, etc.

The problem is in your questions. "Purpose" is not something that is a part of an item. It is a part of our mind.
> Go doesn't, vehemently so.

We seem to have a different notion of what a higher order function is. My understanding is that a higher order function is one that takes one or more functions as arguments, or, returns one or more functions as a result.

Go happily supports this.
I tried some variations before I posted, but the result was just 0.
I regret my comment.
Actually, the patch was announced before the details of the bug: I subscribe to the libpng mailing list, and got about a day's notice to ship the patch out before the CVE and associated details were widely publicised. They did a good job of notifying us quickly, before there was chance for the 'bad guys' to jump on my customers.
That's AI. Every generation invents everything again. Probably works this way in other fields too.

(Yes this is hyperbole, but any old timers out there will know the feeling)
> kinda like how the internets work!

Using this analogy, isn't a suitcase roughly equivalent to a packet? It's tagged with source/destination, and basically standardised so the routing gear doesn't need to care about the specific items you are routing.
I wouldn't be remotely surprised if this had happened several times already, quietly.
