Stubhub can charge a violating seller.

Or, try to. Stubhub actually has a huge fraud exposure. The seller is paid within days of the buyer receiving the tickets, even if the event is much later.

If the tickets were counterfeit in the first place, or invalidated later, Stubhub can only hope that the credit card the seller signed up with is still valid... or ever was. Meanwhile, the buyer gets a refund (eventually) or a substitute (if prices have dropped).
No more fleeting then an unrecorded exchange between two people.
Corporations are notional entities, granted rights by a government. The government owes them little in the way of human rights, so how is it so difficult for a government to impose sanctions on a misbehaving corporation?

The US is in poor company as a country that has a death penalty for humans, where is the list of corporate offences that justify a dissolution of this notional entity? Only Bankruptcy?
So silly. They should've just provided Mint with a dedicated endpoint on a dedicated server or two in their colo. Load problem solved.

You've missed the point, which is that even if the copyright expired on Mickey, Disney might have another legal option to protect him, as explained at the end of the article.

But I think as someone else suggested, the reason they care is because of not just Mickey, but their back catalogue of other material which may not fall under that same brand protection. And because Disney doesn't know any better than to continue their campaign of paying people off to get their precious copyright extensions. It's what they do.

Public domain works are an important creative incentive for new works and increased availability of art. Old and new Art enriches our culture, is a source of wisdom and inspiration for young and old, and the more we have the better. We need a strong connection with out artistic past. Society is worse off for this Disney sponsored 100 year blind spot in our cultural rear mirrors.

> You're either the job creator or the job filler.

That's a very simplistic view. Doing the work and making the stuff also create jobs. How many right here have jobs because developers - not execs, not investors - created the technology we use? Yes, even at Yahoo. Like Hadoop. The idea that the people who contribute money create jobs and the people who contribute labor (in our case via code) don't is utterly, obviously, dangerously wrong. It's self-serving claptrap from those who have no ability to participate in acts of creation instead of arbitrage. No hacker for which this site is named should accept it.
You're right, for paper tickets there needs to
be a trusted third party that handles them

Stubhub does no such thing. For physical tickets, seller ships to buyer. For PDF tickets, seller just uploads them; the upload constitutes delivery.

For events that Stubhub lacks hooks into the ticketing system (mostly baseball), they do nothing to vet tickets. Buyers are advised to create a listing in TicketExchange (or whomever is the official marketplace) to (1) validate the tickets and (2) lock them to prevent forwarding or TicketExchange sale by a prior holder.
The OP only addresses money as a resource. That can work when talking about average people, average employees. But if you want to talk about elites, money becomes only a yardstick, a metric rather than a resource.

Certain people do not value money directly. They value having more money than other. They value relative wealth. This is why a billionaire will fight for that extra 100k from a contractor or may cut wages on a whim. This drive for relative disparity occurs on the large scale (say a billionaire going after casino workers) the medium scale (athlete A wanting to be paid more than athlete B regardless of number) and too at smallest scales (wanting to be the highest paid in the office).

This is human nature. The danger occurs when a powerful person, unable to meaningfully increase their wealth due to the law of diminished returns, decides to attack those with less.

The US sanctions corporations all the time, by levying fines and imposing restrictions. Dissolving DuPont would mean firing 60,000 people - most of whom did nothing wrong - as well as screwing every manufacturer which relies on a DuPont product, most of which are safe when relevant handling guidelines are followed. DuPont makes a huge number of things; from Wikipedia, it's the inventor of "Vespel, neoprene, nylon, Corian, Teflon, Mylar, Kevlar, Zemdrain, M5 fiber, Nomex, Tyvek, Sorona and Lycra", and I'm sure a ton of other stuff.

Really, any password hash `PH(m,p)` can have server-relief by adding a regular cryptographic hash function `H` and making H∘PH your hash function. By this, you store `p||H(PH(m,p))` in the database, and have the client compute `PH(m,p)` and send it to the server rather than sending the password `p`. You still have to send the salting information to the client though or use .

I don't see the server relief in Argon2's latest specification document though.

In fact, most Stubhub tickets are electronic ONLY after about 3 business days before the event. But they do nothing to validate the PDFs (not even to check for unaltered PDFs)
Postgrest deviates from some REST URL conventions that REST users are familiar with. As an example, one very common convention gives each item a distinct path with the 'id' (the primary key of some table, typically) as the last path element: /some_path/123. Notice that the 'key' column name is implied and simple (not compound).

Postgrest does not adopt this convention. This decision is not arbitrary, however. Postgrest is conceptually a function that computes a REST API for a PostgreSQL database, and tables in a PostgreSQL can (for better or worse) have compound primary keys, which do not map well to a simple URL path. So Postgrest uses a more general URL syntax. The equivalent of the above is: /some_path?id=eq.123.

Postgrest represents some novel thinking about the use of certain HTTP verbs as well. A lot of this is discussed in the Postrest introduction video here: http://postgrest.com/

This.

The old Stubhub (pre-eBay) made a BIG deal of denied-at-door situations, and local managers had broad discretion to source replacement tickets, even at higher cost.

Nowadays, they realize that doing so is not profitable in the short term.
It's not X server that's important. The Android Linux kernel has different modules enabled/disabled. For instance, standard IPC is replaced by Binders, and kernel module loading is typically disabled.

Code Reviewing My Earliest Surviving Program
From the white paper https://password-hashing.net/argon2-specs.pdf:

> Argon2i is more vulnerable to tradeoff attacks due to its data-independent addressing scheme. We applied
the ranking algorithm to 3-pass Argon2i to calculate time and computational penalties. We found out that the
memory reduction by the factor of 3 already gives the computational penalty of around 214. The 214 Blake2b
cores would take more area than 1 GB of RAM (Section 2.1), thus prohibiting the adversary to further reduce
the time-area product. We conclude that the time-area product cost for Argon2d can be reduced by 3 at best.
They do that, now.

But having a ticket doesn't mean that it will be valid at the gate... or was ever valid.
That's what I don't want to see. I care more about how it's done than how it 'succeed'. I'm realist, politics are a mess, and will never be all white.

I don't think the people who leverage these 'tricks' today do this because of superior intellectual skills or understanding. They just use it for blind results.
Research is incredibly hard with education. Consider the following: all of the people you have met with a university degree have learned, by some definition, the material in their degree. Yet, when we interview people for jobs we clearly find that a very large proportion of computer programmers did not learn the material at school to a level which would allow them to use it.

I taught English as a foreign language for 5 years. But I also have the experience of taking more than 10 years of French lessons. I can not, nor have I ever been able to speak French. And yet, I passed more than 10 1-year courses on the subject. In the 5 years that I taught English -- to literally thousands of students, some over the period of 3 years, none of them learned how to speak English as a result of my teaching. Although, I was praised for my ability to teach.

I speak Japanese fluently. I learned it on my own as an adult. I have never taken a Japanese course and nobody ever taught me Japanese. And yet, I managed to survive 2 years of married life without once speaking English (my wife has since learned to speak English).

So the not-so-trivial question is: how do you measure learning? And how do you assign that learning to different teaching techniques? Not only are the papers generally quite poor, the thing they are trying to measure is incredibly elusive. It is a breeding ground for self deception and outright fraud.
>When the reason given for the 'mistake' is obviously false, it's not impossible.

The problem is that you could not concretely determine that to be the case. Thousands if not millions of ticket sales are canceled for a variety of reasons on StubHub every single day.

They would be going broke trying to investigate all of them for fraud, not to mention open themselves up to potential lawsuits by the alleged perpetrators they wrongly defamed if they made a mistake.

No. Sellers can't even provide details on their tickets besides the few checkbox yes/no options.
I'm surprised by the support you're getting, because the HN hivemind fully supports it when founders exit with 50-10000x what rank and file gets. I wonder if HN doesn't see a problem with founders because they all hope to be a billionaire founder themselves one day, but they don't personally relate to hired or big-company CEOs.

> Ableton, Cubase, everything from NativeInstruments, including sample libraries which sometimes are the reason why you need KONTAKT, and not some other sampler. U-he Zebra. Hundreds of various VST plugins from different developers: reverbs, phasers, limiters, etc. Often this stuff is quite trivial, but there just is some amount of domain knowledge which random opensource developer just doesn't possess. That's why free stuff available sucks or even doesn't exist.

Ardour is the basis for Harrison consoles which are fairly well respected. I would also comment that open source audio plugins tend to look much worse than they actually sound. Totally vanilla UI for an audio plugin doesn't inspire much confidence in the audio quality (watch Century of the Self for more on that). I'd personally like to see a real contender for open source clone of Propellerhead Reason. Cubase is far less programming work than Reason IMHO.

Sample libraries aren't "source code" and in that sense they cannot be truly "open sourced". Creative content such as this is more on the Creative Commons side of matters -- for better or worse.

Exactly. I'm not a fan of any of the "popular" desktop environments. I liked Gnome 2 and didn't mind using it (RHEL desktops) but for several years XFCE has been my favorite.

Outside of Ordos, I don't think there are much of any other ghost cities really, unless someone can prove me wrong. All ghost cities from 3-5 years ago that were prominently featured in media are now populated. It just takes that much time for them to get to or near their planned capacity. China's political system allows it a luxury of very long-term planning, unlike the US, unfortunately.

Most would refer to what you describe as 'lifestyle business'. I mean 'startup' as the type of startup you would see come out of YC. You work really hard, all the time. Company culture is encompassing, which means employees sacrificing a lot of time and mindshare. As a founder it becomes the only thing you think about, for years. That's startups of the YC vein, and they only want to fund startups that work this way. (Take a look at Sam's 'How to Start a Startup' course if this doesn't ring familiar).

Stars and “Moving up”
Going from individual contributor to “management”, you really get a fresh perspective. I complained for years to get promoted into a management role. I didn't complain very loudly, so it took a while.

Mainly, I felt like I couldn't grow without it. A management role would give me a fresh perspective, and I'd have more access to higher ups, who have smarts I don't have. Important things I can learn.

I found out - I was right.

Useful info about how businesses work and what is really important, is hidden from subordinates. A little more is concealed, every level you go down from the top. Nothing fishy - just the way it is.

So now, I manage a pretty big team and when things aren't going right with someone - I get to hear about it, from upper mgmt or clients. That’s a pressure individual contributors don't have to worry about - but I always put so much pressure on myself as an individual contributor my whole life, I don't really notice it too much. I still believe it's harder to work - than direct someone else's work - IF you're working your ass off - that is, you are a star.

It really boils down to stars. As a staff member, you should want to be one. As a manager, you want a team full of them. Recognizing a star is kinda like obscenity. “I know it when I see it”.

I'm older. Seems the younger/sv area crowd are more into "culture fit". That seems a little too college fraternity to me. People say "one asshole can ruin the team". I suspect that's bullshit. The stars on the team are going to be stars - they can't even help themselves.

This is one of the reasons why you can't have a totally flat org - you need managers. Managers (among other things) are there to deal with assholes. You can cool people out without firing them.

There's lots of managerial advice out there. It's hard to find any truly useful information out there, I'll say it all comes down to stars. They are making it happen.

The Boeing Museum of Flight once offered rides in the back seat (very cramped) of a P51. I was first in line! Worth every penny (expensive). I didn't stop smiling for a week.

OneWheel does not own or run CES, how would they have the power to deny an application?

I agree it would have been a better move if they could have convinced CES to handle the matter quietly. Lots of reasons why that may not have been possible.

Whether or not the publicity is even positive for one wheel -- they are seen calling in the feds, being generally litigious, and calling attention to the competitor -- is another question. He was definitely doing his best to spin it positive in the Bloomberg article saying this is good for the marketplace, etc.

I think the potential for the Android desktop is huge, and can threaten Intel in a serious way. Look at the Amazon Fire TV equipped with a Mediatek 64 bit quad core A72 + A53 SoC. The same SoC is scheduled to be in Chromebooks shortly.

This tiny 4 inch by 1 inch box can play 4k at 30fps, provide super fast internet browsing, Facebook, Youtube, Office apps, video conferencing and play Android 3D titles well. And it costs 64 Pounds or 90 USD! It geekbenches 1600/3500 which is pretty respectable compared to an Intel i3 which retails for around $150 just for the CPU. Why spend anything more for grandma's, mum's or a just a general PC. It also has good support for Kodi so no need for expensive HTPCs.

So here is a 60 GBP device doing a of lot of thing a traditional basic PC or laptop does at a fraction of the price, power, noise and size! This is disruptive.

The only thing holding it back is the absence of proper desktop support in Android and the relatively closed nature especially GPU of the Arm ecosystem. Also the PC ecosystem is accustomed to a much more open hardware and software playing field, and the driver scenario for ARM and Google's control of Android itself can be problematic.

Android is currently completely touch oriented and even though you can attach a keyboard and mouse, as the recent Ars review highlights [1] there are quite a few rough edges.

Remix OS is a step in that direction but it appears some of the issues are serious enough that only Google can address. A better situation is ARM being more open, Linux is already well supported on ARM so if it opens up the drivers in good faith without the back and forth of licensor and licensee that open source developers deal with, desktop need not depend just on Android.
