I would suspect that the common stock and preferred stock are priced according to their value (voting rights, preference at payout, etc). I think that ownership of common stock by other investors with the desire to ensure that common stock gets fairly represented (i.e. gets its money's worth) in a liquidity event is the biggest benefit here because it may balance the desires on both sides of the fence.
Sure. And it's a no go on a laptop. Though you can probably get a ~5 year old desktop with PCIe for basically free if you ask around friends and relatives. If you ssh into it, no need for a monitor either.

I don't understand the equivalence between "someone who's making me wait in line for hours in order to have all my shit taken out of my bags and re-packed by myself in order to perform provably[1] no useful service to anyone" and "someone who checks me out at the grocery store."

One is actively making my day worse to no useful purpose, so I treat them like the dirt that they are. The other is performing a valuable service which I appreciate and thank accordingly.

you should be focused on finding new clients. why would you spend a bunch of effort on a new product unless you've exhausted sales efforts for your existing one. Each sales on your existing product is money in everyone's pocket. New development seems like a distraction. Also, maybe you should view his opinion as a good counter sink to you and your other friends opinions. Different view points is a good thing and will happen a lot more if you ever bring on more people. And if your main method of convincing people of your view point is "because I say so" you will have a bunch of yes man working for you. Also, you all need to work on a process to come to making decisions that will get better over time. A lot of times you can test ideas out and see if one is better. As for general high level things like charging customers maybe find a middle ground. or agree on a 2/3 vote for decisions.

I have a problem with that approach as it superimposes the fifth level modifier key with the meta (alt) motifier key. When running my ubuntu I can rearrange the modifier keys that fits my use case the best (Caps lock and AltGr as ISO_Level_5, left Alt and right Super as Meta, etc) under OSX those all become the same key, and I either loose the ability to write common characters as `@` (AltGr + q), `}` (AltGr + 0) or the ability to execute common commands with simple key strokes like "Fill paragraph" (Meta + q) or "Forward word" (Meta + f).

This non-sense has resulted in most of my co-workers swapping keyboards altogether with the English keyboard and writing the ascii equivalent of special letters (ae → æ, d → ð, þáði → tadi, etc.) because swapping keybards (even though it is only one command; Shift + Option + Space) becomes such a pain if you have to do so many times over the day.

MirrorMirror: A Raspberry Pi-Powered Magic Mirror
It does showcase the preferential treatment and the motives of investors who have preferred stock. When they need to ensure a return they seem to have the leverage to do so. In this example though we see the battle emerging between large common stock owners against preferred stock owners.

From that article on Good:

"In October, Brian Bogosian, a former Good C.E.O. and a significant shareholder, along with two institutions that own common shares, said the board was not looking after the interests of common stockholders and sued in Delaware Chancery Court. They are seeking unspecified damages and fees."

The double-edge sword (taxes and cost to take ownership in a company that will probably only payout from a long, expensive lawsuit, brought on mostly by wealthier owners of common stock...) is when employees exercise their options to obtain shares to then have ownership to contest payouts that obviously favor preferred stock.
I really appreciate your comment -- the last thing I wanted to start was a reddit-style circlejerk. I feel like responding to a few points, though.

I think my comment might have come off as being sort of condescending to people who are unwilling to talk about their problems for fear of judgement, like if only they would just do that everything would be OK!

Of course that's not the case! When you reveal your problems to someone, they often jump to blaming you, judging you, and so on. I meant that people recognize that I've dealt with that a lot, and that I won't blame them or judge them. Sometimes I can offer them some practical advice, but often that's just condescending, so I just express sympathy.

As for circumstances, I firmly believe that it's possible, albeit difficult, to be happy under any circumstances. This doesn't mean that you're not allowed to seek better circumstances, but I've always found that I'm best at improving my external circumstances when I'm feeling OK internally.

Finally, my one liner "guide to happiness" was meant to be suggestive of broad principles, not "this is exactly what you need to do to be happy!". I should have made this clearer. Balance is an extraordinarily important part of it! People have thought and written about this basically forever -- in fact it's the original, and in my opinion, the only legitimate question in philosophy. It's also the whole point of religion. So to think that one can sum it up in a few platitudes is more than a little bit silly.
It's best to adopt a broad strategy of resistance, starting with direct contempt/ostracization to the most obvious target (TSA lackeys) and ending with writing your congressman threatening to donate to his competitor if there isn't action taken in your favor.

The less socially desirable the TSA jobs are, the fewer people will hang onto them and feel like they are rewarded for "good work".

Ah, but the obedience of the peons IS the system. This is why we have enshrined the idea of "following orders is not an excuse". There will always be people willing to do bad things because they are told, and we must treat them as culpable. I guess you can argue that poverty "forces" people into working for the TSA, but that's just as dehumanizing because it implies they have no agency. These people have agency, and chose to work for the TSA, which they likely knew beforehand was a much detested organization.

Without peons, there are no effectors for the policies passed from above, and historically, we've seen the people at the top be terrified and manipulated by disorder in their bottom most ranks.
You're welcome.

You could fight off the Danes with spears and shields. The TSA, not so much. You might get a bit of satisfaction out of making their job 1% more difficult, but be honest, that's all it is.
It would break either API nor ABI to make "disallow SHA-1 certificates" a setting that could be configured globally by the system administrator (and it could even be controlled by an environment variable to support it per-process).
The important point is not about the known cases, but rather the way death is handled in the culture. For example:

http://articles.latimes.com/2007/nov/09/world/fg-autopsy9

"Photos of the teenager's corpse show a deep cut on his right arm, horrific bruising on his neck and chest. His face is swollen and covered with cuts. A silhouette of violence runs from the corner of his left eye over the cheekbone to his jaw, and his legs are pocked with small burns the size of a lighted cigarette.

But police in Japan's Aichi prefecture saw something else when they looked at the body of Takashi Saito, a 17-year-old sumo wrestler who arrived at a hospital in June. The cause of death was "heart disease," police declared.

As is common in Japan, Aichi police reached their verdict on how Saito died without an autopsy. No need for a coroner, they said. No crime involved. Only 6.3% of the unnatural deaths in Aichi are investigated by a medical examiner, a minuscule rate even by nationwide standards in Japan, where an autopsy is performed in 11.2% of cases."
I hope that achievement will be more than just "well, we put out the paint, but nobody used it!" they certainly need to go much further.
As far as I can tell, the only "breach" here is revealing what candidates or parties voters chose. The voter registries are public in nearly all states. I've used public voter registries to look up addresses, even when I only had a name. Information such as a personal address, phone number, etc have always been trivial to look up.
Ask HN: Agencies, how do you host multiple client websites?
If you serve multiple clients and help them setup their own website but you provide the hosting, how do you usually do it ? Do you get one big dedicated server with big specs OR you get individual VPS for each client ? The cost is one factor but the main question is about how to manage a large number of clients when you provide them a hosting but for them, it is all "cloud" based.
Note: The clients are not technical but more like regular end users.
Meteor meets GraphQL
In Belfast, flying over to Edinburgh, my wife (who previously had cancer) asked to not use the machine. They told her "it's not radiation, it's not like the American ones" (despite being the exact same one they had at O'Hare). After 2-3 minutes of debating, they finally let her get a pat down. And then after the pat down, forced her to go through the machine anyway.

We were in a foreign country, on a pretty tight schedule (missing this flight wasn't an option), and I wasn't exactly well versed on the legality of these things in Europe to make the argument.

Having seen the photos these things generate, it seems like they're pretty much useless unless someone is carrying something on them that would probably be pretty apparent anyway. Is there any cases where these machines have caught someone?

The problem with Pascal/Wirthian family of languages in my opinon is that they are really scattered and it is somewhat difficult for an outsider to discover what is the currently alive variation.

Of course there are also various implementations of the different languages that also kinda live their own lives.

> One is actively making my day worse to no useful purpose, so I treat them like the dirt that they are.

You're making two mistakes here. One, you're assuming that all TSA agents are evil jerks who only took the job so they can fulfill their life's goal of fucking with coldpie. I'll counter that the vast majority of TSA employees are regular people like you'd find in any entry level position. Maybe they hate their job, or maybe they feel they are doing their part in keeping America safe (whether they believe the security theater bullshit they're fed, or not). Either way, they are human beings just like you. You are no better than they are, and vice versa. You are putting yourself on a pedestal and looking down on them as if they are subhuman. That is textbook sociopath.

Two, you are equating policy set by their superiors with the entry level agents themselves. They have absolutely no say in what they are forced to do, yet they are the ones you're taking it all out on. You're quite simply barking up the wrong tree.

If you want anyone to take you seriously rather than thinking you're a raving lunatic, you should direct your ire towards the policy makers. Work the political angle, because you're fighting a losing battle on the ground. Making one of thousands of employees feel like shit does absolutely nothing for your claimed cause, and only serves to feed your own selfish need to feel superior (which I strongly suspect is your actual motive, whether you realize it or not).
Thank you. Since performance isn't going to be a huge concern with the spots that this code is used but learning curve is, I've settled on Python. Additionally, since the more intensive side of this will be in a database the math and analytics libraries add some real value.

We're using Go for the rest of the microservices and can always revisit the Lambda code if performance becomes a real concern. It's going to be so small that rewriting shouldn't be much of a concern.
Well to be fair, you can just use the man pages if you don't have network access. Or you could git clone the repo and print it from the repo. I think his point is that this is a problem that is easy to overengineer and really doesn't need that much work to be done.

For more direct evidence in the form of specific examples there's an old HN thread from 2010 about this: "Ask HN: Cases where software patents have prevented progress?" [0]

Some examples include arithmetic coding[1], elliptic curve cryptography[2], and LZW/GIF[3]. Apple dropped ZFS because of licencing concerns[4] (dooming us all to listen to John Siracusa complain about HFS+ and lamenting the absence of ZFS for the last 6 years). Many of these have since expired and have had a burst of activity around them afterwards.
