> Instead of using a strap attached to a small pod containing the electronics, the hardware was placed throughout the length of the bendable wristband. Spreading the electronics out made the device look like a bracelet, which fit with Jawbone’s goal of making electronics that doubled as jewelry.

> That created problems in manufacturing. In initial manufacturing efforts, the device’s electronics were destroyed when hot rubber was injected into the mold. Over time, the process improved, but not enough to convince everyone that the device was ready to be shipped to consumers. When devices broke, it was difficult to decipher the reason because the electronics were encased in rubber.
it seems like most countries have moved to co-ed programs. I know it's just been "Scouts" since i was a kid 20 years ago in Canada too.

A shitty laptop keyboard way too often (hp dv7) and, when I have space to get it set up, a Apple Extended Keyboard II with a ADB converter that I built.

I'm currently looking at the Das Keyboard or the CODE keyboard.
Not to be overly pedantic, but if you have an accurate timepiece you can get your longitude from averaging sunrise and sunset times. It's not particularly accurate, if you can't see the sun, but could be useful if you where otherwise lost at sea and under total cloud cover for a long period of time.
Why not instead a "modern" digital sextant consisting of a digital camera and software. Still enables navigation by the stars (or sun) as a backup to GPS without having to spend thousands of man-hours training cadets to do it manually. And while not as accurate as GPS certainly, it would most likely be better than or at least equal to the best human navigators.

You'd harden the system against EMP which is probably a standard requirement of military electronics anyway (I'd hope...)
Actually, for many, walking more would create value. Underwalking creates a large societal cost in health care, climate change, and more. I would pay people to walk more.

Jawbone: The trials of a 16-year-old can’t-miss startup
That's because most of these tools are built by people who are borderline psychos. I don't mean the murderous kind but the kind that is emotionally stunted, working under intense business pressures to deliver (which is really just another group of psychos higher up the hierarchy), and overworked. The best part is that there is nothing new. It's all just the same old stuff except now it's in the cloud and requires 10 layers of configuration being held together by heroic manual effort. I know you think chef, ansible, salt, puppet, etc. helps. Nope, tried them all, same thing applies and I'm no longer in the mood to learn yet another DSL for shell scripting.

It's not just AWS. This is pretty much true of every infrastructure/cloud as a service company. They either have too many knobs with all sorts of unintended interactions and half-baked integrations or they abstract away way too much and you have no control over anything and can only deploy a nodejs or django application that follows a very specific rigid structure. Oh and did I mention most of this stuff is insecure by default and if you want to do anything in a secure way then your n-layer configuration nightmare is now 10x worse (probably why most places are looking for 10x programmers). Oh and there is also networking/NAT, user management, logging, artifact distributions, service discovery, etc. to worry about as well using tools that are just as half-baked.

Thanks for the article! Our team (Iodine) is actually doing something similar specifically for people taking antidepressants, so it's cool to see that one of your top priorities is taking your meds on time every day.

One of the main reasons we created our app, Start, is because a lot of people aren't getting enough support or info (whether from their doctors, friends or online) about how they're doing. It's super important for people to feel empowered and have the right tools to get better. Our app has daily pill reminders and check-ins to help people track their mood and how their (custom) goals and issues are holding up. Then every 2 weeks they get a progress report so they can see how they've been doing.

We're inspired by your idea and would love feedback on our app as well – you can check it out here: www.iodine.com/start. You can reach us directly at start@iodine.com :)
Web components bring nothing new to the table. They simply copy the ideas from the desktop world, warts and all. I would have hoped after decades of GUI research the web would try something new, but why innovate when you can just copy right?

Agreed - this is a great idea; I would try and keep it simple though. Just have an app that recorded psychological health indicators with the diagnosis and treatment left out.

There are so many approaches in psychology that with settling one particular would narrow the audience too much.

> There is some overlap, yes. TCP_CORK is a mode however. It's silly to introduce the complexity of extra state when a single method call (flushHint()) would suffice.

It is a single call. Note that last sentence from the man page entry: "setting this option forces an explicit flush of pending output, even if TCP_CORK is currently set."

When TCP_CORK is on (turn it on once at socket creation time), the following code is the implementation of your flushHint function:

int flushHint(int fd) {
return setsockopt(fd, IPPROTO_TCP, TCP_NODELAY, &(int){ 1 }, sizeof(int))

Chris Kelly – From Source to Society
About 10 years ago everyone got super sensitive with regards to airline security. So you problem couldn't just let a bunch of craigslist temps come in and apply some patches working on the live system.

I think the guys over at US could work a bit faster, but I will grant them they aren't exactly in an unregulated industry where they can "challenge the status quo". When kalanick bears down on the red tape, people aren't reminded that taxis were the attack vector of America's biggest security event.

But yeah, out-source it to one of the hundred or so DoD contractors or security professionals allowed to work on something like this, it likely wasn't that big of a job to patch that vuln.

There can be a fine line between full disclosure and blackmail. I would be concerned "give me airpoints or else" would go over it.
Only according to the article's findings (and explanations) that's not the case.

Besides there are lots of counter-examples of similar moderate words that were popular and faded out (swell, neat, jiffy, groovy, hip, dandy, gnarly, hairy, a-ok etc).
The popular perception is that they build it for themselves with what they want in an OS and don't give a shit otherwise. Hence, a significant gap between what most want and what it is. It's mostly a difference in focus and philosophy that won't win a popularity contest.

There are technical limitations as others have noted. The attitude and focus, though, I think is what kept OpenBSD in their own niche.
Seriously! Bit walking?! Give me a f**ing break.
Initially I thought "cool" might have its staying power because it's the baseline... the first word to really encapsulate a concept (perhaps defined as "innovatively unique")... and the others are just knock-offs trying to redefine the standard.

but I'm pretty sure "hep" would be considered a synonym of cool that predates it.

So why didn't "hep" become the everlasting "cool" word?
You speak as if web tech was made by the smartest people, and is cutting edge or something? The web is just politics. It is a total failure of technology - in fact, failure built upon failure - and yet it keeps it's head above the water because there is no alternative that can serve content to so many people.
burnte might be speaking of marijuana, as it is psychoactive
Good to see they finally compromised on this. A few more here and there we might see OpenBSD start getting more traction. They can maintain their quality difference if they make the right compromises rather than every compromise. Interesting to see what choices they make from here.
I like this approach, and am also relieved it's part of an overall strategy that included professional help.

Depression has caused serious damage to my relationships -- it causes me to experience apathy towards those I care about, irritability, aggression and self-harm. I would throw myself into my work and constantly shifting hobbies, basically anything where I didn't have the time to think about other things.

These symptoms, apparently, are fairly common in men who are experiencing depression and one of the reasons it can go undiagnosed.
Thanks for telling me that - I'm just a sample of one, but that makes your app very useful to me. :)

Congratulations on getting this far and good luck in the future!!
follow me sounds incredibly needy
It sounds like they are disqualified from receiving any rewards any time in the future.

But other than that, there is nothing preventing you from revealing the vulnerability, or worse, selling it on the grey market. The US government is a heavy buyer of vulnerabilities (although usually in applications, not in airline websites).
Exactly. You don't even need the robot to plant it; crops are planted in rows. Tractors and combines today already track exactly where the plants are planted down to sub-inch accuracy (http://farmindustrynews.com/accurate-inch -- other source, my family farm).

It's true, I'm not a psychiatrist and don't know him. It's also obvious that achieving things helps us feel better. I'm trying to suggest that, instead of focusing on productivity as the final solution and trying to hack it into his life, perhaps look at the factors causing his difficulties. For example, the fact that he works alone, or does a sedentary job -- both of which are massive risk factors for depression.
Dictionary puts it's at "80s onwards", but it should also be present in the 70s.
Did you just compare C++ to JS/CSS/HTML?? C++ as old as it is, is still leagues ahead of JS. Honestly was this a joke post?
Everyone will say no to this question. And it's the right answer.

But then you run into team problems with engineers feeling very exhausted working with your codebase and you have to constantly deal w/ missing confidence in the developed software.

In my experience "Acknowledged technical debt" is usually a good middle ground to work with. It usually also works with die-hard engineers.

Building software is not about writing optimal code. The goal is to have confidence in the code you wrote. Constantly wondering how something works only to realize that it doesn't is energy draining and needs to be avoided.

Acknowledge and document technical debt. Explain (in notes) how stuff is meant to be, how it should be, what does work. Essentially you want to reduce the amounts of "WTFs" the next person (eg future you) has reading the code.

The most important lesson here is: technical debt can be a good thing. You buy expensive short-term impact with future time. Very often you never need to "cheque" that future time because that part of the product might have been thrown away.
I used to be a leader in the scouts. Before I joined, our scouting group tore itself apart because the previous leader felt that girls should be in girl scouts rather than boy scouts.

When he finally relented, the mothers moved in and asked that activities be 'toned down'. When he refused, the complaints came in thick and fast. The leader was removed and the group collapsed. Nobody stepped up to fill the void.

After I joined, we spent 6 months playing skipping rope games until I asked what the hell we were doing as a group to grow our kids. I joined the Scouts to learn leadership and survival skills for my kids. That's when I got the back story from our group leader (a very capable woman who had also suffered in the skirmish and was afraid to rock the PC boat).

The first change I initiated was to split the group activities into 'soft' activities and 'hard core' activities. Those that wanted to play skipping rope games could. Those that wanted to learn bush survival skills could.

Interestingly, everyone dropped the skipping rope games and we actually started to function as a productive and capable scout group. We quadrupled our numbers in 12 months to the point we could no longer cope without additional leadership because our sixers weren't experienced enough to take up the slack.

I don't have daughters, so I never got involved with girl scouts. While headlines like this raise all sorts of questions about girl scouts in the 21st century, I have no idea about them.

Calvatia Gigantea tasting like chicken?

I've eaten some we found in the wild. Not bad, but it's definitely not meat.

Most people* pick and eat mushrooms where I live, but I've yet to hear anyone say any mushroom tastes like meat.

*Except the doctors and nurses working metabolic intensive care.. :). Some people don't know how to recognize a Death-cap mushroom..
>So ... why does everyone start a sentence with "So". Both verbally and in written media. This has bugged me for quite a while.

Verbally, because it signals you're speaking and gives you a little time to think your next words (like "eeer", "mmm", etc we also say).
Point taken and agreed. Thanks for rephrasing.
No zoning either?
I don't think "neat" has ever been "groovy". For me as an Australian it conveys a sense of a particularly American type of "squareness". It's almost never used here, nor in the UK I think. I've noticed that Bill Gates uses it a lot and he is not particularly a model of cool.

BTW, not saying don't use it. If that's who you are and that's how you speak, that's cool :)

Aren't these two lines contradictory?
Let us know when someone implements anything remotely in the same league as Apple's XCode (based on Interface Builder, which first appear ~25 years ago) for designing GUIs using this technique. The fact that it doesn't exist should tell you something.
I think it's one of the biggest growing pains a startup has going from a couple people to double digits.

My particular comments are from Cincinnati's startup ecosystem, where I've been an engineer for a few startups and hang out with founders around our local accelerators and incubator regularly. I think Chicago's is comparable in some ways -- the biggest differences being you have a more mature ecosystem and more funding, and some huge startups which we definitely don't have.

I've seen management-level people come in without background experience that handle the managerial parts of their job well. I've seen some people get promoted from head of whatever to their first management position and become not good at both. However, managers with prior management experience at a startup seem to be the best bet. Sometimes skilled management that has a background outside of startups does well; sometimes I think they hurt the early- to mid-stage culture.

I've also seen, at the early stage, CEOs that have never done project management or managed developers before and they are bad at one or the other.

Honestly, I think this just varies widely by company. It's never been something that's affected my choice to (not) work for / stay with a company though. Personally, if traction is good and you enjoy the team, I tend to just have confidence the founders and management will figure it out while I mostly stay heads down on engineering.

Perhaps that's a little vague and not the most helpful answer, but it's a reflection on my startup experience.
That's a good point. If you get something out of it then it's not exactly as if you only have the public interest at heart. Which makes me wonder what would be the way to act if you found a major vulnerability in some vendors product and they point blank refuse to fix it even given plenty of time. The public good would (could?) clearly outweigh the company's interest if the hole is bad enough but it could get extremely expensive if you went public with the flaw against their wishes (assuming they know who you are and you're in a location where they can make your life hard).

This is probably very different from jurisdiction to jurisdiction, here in NL we have a government watchdog for such cases which starting 1/1/2016 will have a lot more teeth but in other countries the situation will surely be very different.

Anonymity would seem to be an asset in such cases.
Sorry to break it to you, React is not great. Angular neither. They fill a void that they should have never had to patch up, and are flawed because of it.

The fact that the 'newest hotness' breaks your GUI each time is an alarming sign that something is very broken. Additionally you seem to be talking as if this won't continue to happen.

Your final point - I'll believe it when I see it. Along with webAssembly, in 10 years.

In general, serotonergic agonists at regular dosages definitely increase susceptibility to serotonin syndrome.
If the Big Bang happened everywhere at the same time then does that mean the universe was infinitely big at the start? Every time I watch a science program about the big bang they say that everything was contained in an area smaller than an atom? Surely both cannot be true.

you're incredibly overconfident. I'll leave it at that. good luck.
No, because your priority is building something people like quickly. Not building something well that people don't necessarily care about.

That said, tracking tech debt is important. Creating issues in Jira, or whatever you're using, can be valuable over time. Maybe there's one specific piece that gets in your way of building features every week, and tracking it will make it more obvious or help you realize, e.g. "we could make this 10x better with a few hours of effort vs. 12x better with a few days". Remember that product-market fit stage is when you'll have the highest percentage of your time to dedicate to building features -- might as well make the most of it.
No, it's all just terrible software managed by even more terrible software. It's all very aesthetically unpleasant and when I look for good software I look for a certain "coherence" that I have not found in any of the cloud providers.

If you do things right and stage your artifacting and deployment process properly then that is 90% of the battle I think because none of the cloud providers are magic. Any service they have that promises to abstract away your deployment and configuration pipeline is a bold-faced lie. Heck, they don't even have a way for automating the network topology configuration that isn't a nightmarish maze of JSON (I'm speaking of course of cloud formation). So even if you are using docker, that is in no way a solution to a proper deployment pipeline with properly versioned artifacts and dependencies.

>I can't stand English language purists. It is akin to xenophobic Americans: comically hypocritical.

Not that I agree with either group, but it's not exactly hypocritical what they say.

Saying X is bad while yourself adopting it would indeed be hypocritical. But saying X is OK up to your (or your generation), but bad if it continues is merely selfish or conservative.

It's more like them saying "it stops here", is in the first case "selfish" (since they're in, but want others out) and in the second case "conservative" (since they inherited an impure language, but want to stop it from evolving), but not necessarily hypocritical.

It's not illogical either: just because something started as "X" ("a nation of immigrants" for America, "an impure mix of words and linguistic influence" for the English language) it's not a logical necessity that it should continue to be so ad infinitum.

It depends, technical debt lets the team build features quickly today at the cost of slowing down future development.

Startups with a short runway probably don't have a future, so technical debt can be viewed as something with little downside that gets you to market faster. The tradeoff is that as your runway gets shorter debt makes it harder to try new things.

I'd say don't worry too much about technical debt before p/m fit. However, don't let anyone on your team use debt as an excuse for half-assing something that could deter finding market fit.
Lawns look nice. Sounds like a good enough reason to keep them. We are not THAT overpopulated.
