This is a good example of how bad many accelerators are, but extrapolating based on that experience to thinking that he knows anything about YC is a major error. This is a bit like saying, "I had a bad time drinking bleach, therefore you should avoid all liquids."
IBM Acquires UStream, launches cloud video unit
I don't know how you could enforce this. But as I wrote before, as long as the elite keeps capturing all gains from productivity for themselves, demand will stay low.

Maybe there are tax schemes that encourage paying higher wages but I don't know.
send a request to legal@medicalcannab.is, and I'll happily provide you with whatever forms you like. :)

Also, know that there is a common misunderstanding that GPL-only organizations must make everything they use public. Should you not know about an application, the licensor is in no way obligated to provide you with a list of the free software it is using internally.
We still have the free 'libraries of the internet'. Wikipedia (charity model), and state-provided news sources (like national broadcaster ABC in Aus) do exist and are fairly popular sites.

But we still need a press that's independent from the govt, and we can't expect everyone to run all websites as a charity.
Cathedral and Bazaar are about different ways of organizing projects; Liberal/conservative or Type B/Type A are about individual programmer preferences. So they're not the same thing, although there's some amount of sympathy between them - one might expect liberal/type-B personalities to be attracted to bazaar work and conservative/type-A personalities to prefer cathedral work. But I don't know to what extent this is true, or testable.
So the money goes back to the rich? Where it doesn't get spent.
That would be extremely relevant... if you had some facts. A bald assertion gives very little to the discussion. A data set (or a reference to one) would be more useful.

Even more useful would be more relevant data - like Google ad revenue from users of the Android platform, whether or not broken down by country, and whether or not correlated against average income from that country. Anything else is just speculation, no matter how firmly claimed to be fact.
With `cargo add` its even easier than adding them with "*" dependencies. Just `cargo install cargo-extras` to get `cargo add`, and then `cargo add my_dependency` and it will add the dependency with the most recent version as the requirement.
I don't think so. Given that it was reimplemented immediately, my bet is the company is just incompetent when it comes to security.

There is socioeconomic divide within developed nations mostly the US as Android has the largest market share in Europe regardless mostly of income.

As far as developing countries go and emerging markets it's not really that relevant either.

If we are talking about really poor countries then Google Play isn't available on the phones there so they generate 0 revenue for Google the Android eco-system is also considerably more limited to the point in which you can pretty much not call it android anymore.
This is the ultimate problem with 'trickle down' economics.

What economists/politicians promote something called "trickle down" economics?

This is why you have the seemingly incongruous effect of high taxes encouraging growth and low taxes stifling it.

Reference, please?
> It is very clearly seasonal work

Then why is it that (FTA) "Amazon told Schwartz it would offer temporary-to-permanent positions at its distribution warehouses"?

I saw zero criticism of Amazon for offering the jobs in the first place. It's the failure to follow through and provide the promised stability.
If you think the majority of the internet is crap, then don't use it.

I'm not sure about American prefences but in Europe people tend to use Switzerland, Monaco and Malta.
In Asia, you have Hong Kong and Singapore, both relatively safe and decent countries. Maybe Macau, but I'm not sure.

You're also assuming the government can just "implement" the "ideas" you have and everything will be alright. As if they really rich will give in without resistance. It doesn't work with drugs, it won't work with money.
You add laws, they find loop holes, and I'm pretty sure the private sector can afford smarter people than the government. The government will be too slow and inefficient to tackle this, unless you turn into Germany BOM ;-).
So now you're spending resources to gain resources, which... might stimulate the economy, sure, heh gotta spend money to make money, aye?

Jokes aside, to make things easier, imagine the war on drugs. It doesn't work no matter how much you yell drugs are bad. You can tell "tax" the rich, but as an idea it doesn't mean shit, unless you manage to implement it, which I have my doubts.

The best solutions are always the most pragmatic ones, it can be hard to see it when ones views are clouded with personal feelings. I can admit I that there are some things I wouldn't want to compromise on.. again, Germany.

I'm also suspecting you're assuming leave as in physically leaving, you're in for a surprise when you find out that the truly rich can have the cake and eat it so no one would "fill" their void if there are options, and there will always be options for someone who is truly rich.

Otherwise you just end up taxing the shit out of regular employees, some who makes higher salaries in volatile markets.

Your conclusion isn't logical. Human nature, machines, etc etc.
Take your own advice, that article concludes with "Patent and copyright attorney John Arsenault told Fstoppers that New Portraits, although it looks like a case of outright plagiarism, might be a little more complex if it were argued in a legal context."

Meaning it is (or was) not, at the time the issue arose.

Additionally, in a legal context it is "more complex" because the artist marketed these as vignettes of his Instagram feed. To prove copyright infringement, one would establish copyright ownership of the artist's feed. Who own's a particular user's Instagram feed -- the user, Instagram, or is it shared copyright of all entities listed within the feed? To enforce copyright the latter would need to be true since the artwork is marketed as part of a social media feed.
Does it not show you the potential error?

I often use Find My Friends to keep track of the kids. I presume its location methodology is similar to Find My iPhone. Here's how it behaves:

About 10% of the time, it doesn't show a current location at all for the kid. It does remember the previous one, so it will show a location and say something like "46 minutes ago".

When it does display a location, about 60% of the time it's a single spot.

The remaining 30% of the time it is a spot enclosed by a tinted circle. That circle can be a few hundred feet in diameter, or it can be more than 5 miles in diameter. This is the potential error. However, I'd bet that 95% of the people looking at it don't understand the concept of "potential error". So to them, the enclosing circle doesn't exist.

Edit: forgot to add, about 2% of the time it will show an "exact" location, what I called a "spot", no "potential error" circle. Then a minute later it will show a different exact location a few miles away. Then a minute later yet a third exact location another mile or two away. So in other words, about 2% of the time it is really confused (the kid is stationary the whole time).

I couldn't agree more. One of the most expensive things we have to do on Meteor projects is constantly re-mapping the way we think about our data so it works in a noSQL paradigm.

If they were serious about the framework they'd drop everything they're doing and focus on getting some proper relational support happening ASAP.
Koajd has the same problem Express.js has, its batteries/middleware are not Omakase first class but third party. So I expect friction as things move forward in terms of updates. Ever dealt with RubyGems when upgrading Rails?

Imagine if your core app consisted of all different third party libs and you wanna update Express/Koa?

Then we have typedefinitions for all those libraries. Which why I'm looking for alternatives with typed languages.

You might have misunderstood my question or I'm getting things wrong again. :-)
A startup that has you covered this valentines day – yes man
It depends if she likes sentimental things or not, but a thing called NoteCube (http://thenotecube.com) which is basically a stylish cube filled with notes you've written about them. So you'd write things about what you love about them, memories you have together, what you hope to do etc. you write them all on the site once you've bought the NoteCube and then they send it to you nicely packaged. Could be a nice idea!

p.s. I founded this company with my sister last year - any support would be frickin' awesome!
I didn't realize perf was that bad. Apparently, a 68060 could run stereo 3D content on an Oculus Rift.
Both freshwater and saltwater (for reference, these refer to geographical locations in the US: Chicago and Minnesota near lakes, and MIT, Harvard, Yale, Stanford, etc. near the coasts) claim that you can't run out of demand, in the long run.

These schools differ in their analysis of the business cycle, that is the fluctuations around equilibrium output that are called booms and recessions/depressions. Saltwater economists believe that you can have too little/too much demand during booms/recessions. These are generally called "out of equilibrium" conditions. Neither group claim that in equilibrium, you can run out of demand.

Source: I have a PhD in economics.

EDIT: also see vezzy-fnord's answer, most "Freshwater" economists are and were some kind of Keynesian.

I thought this was weird at first too, but the more I think on it and the more I realize how much of GM's output just ends up in fleets anyway, the more I realize how much it makes a kind of sense.
Why are they mutually exclusive? If I can help get employees for my seasonal surge and HELP homeless people then that's a double win for me.

The article is only arguing that Amazon's part time job though wasn't as life-changing as intentioned. It was only seasonal (which they knew) and the hours didn't end up helping the staff. Now you can argue that Amazon doesn't care because it didn't accommodate the homeless workers with day jobs instead of night jobs.
Yep, you beat me to it. It's like a variant on the old joke[1]:

"You must be a profiteer."

'Sure, I guess I count as one. How'd you know?'

"Well, you learned about the immense, tragic problem of homelessness, and apparently your first thought was, wow, awesome, a cheap labor force I can use to cut costs!"

'Hm, okay, fair enough. You must be a philosopher then.'

"Yes! You're right! How'd you know?"

'Well, because homelessness has been around for ages, and appears to be intractable, and you've been unable to make any real progress on it, and yet when I offer homeless people an alternative to their current state, and some of them take it, somehow, the whole problem is all my fault."

lol it was a paragraph or so of a doc revision. But I'll take it. :)
Agreed. If anybody thinks the real problem with Meteor is that it uses an antiquated templating system they're missing the bigger picture.
What rights are you referring to? The police seem to have done everything correctly. These were individuals who were being detained pursuant to an investigation of an ongoing crime. The police did not search the inside of the house without a warrant - though, it's unclear why not - if they had strong belief that there was a crime in progress, they had every legal right to do so.

I guess the only thing in question is whether "missing child" was precise enough to be upgraded to "crime" in this jurisdiction. I think that, given the evidence, the police did everything correctly; being detained pursuant to an investigation isn't a great inconvenience (though, some accommodation should be made to allow people to use washroom facilities if investigation is extensive - just obviously not in the house under investigation.)
Like?
The Midwest and South (minus urban areas i.e.cities which are few and far between) there aren't many diverse places.
Agreed...

I'd go further, especially in the case of a company scaling in the billions:...provide basic housing near order processing centers, or any other place where unskilled labor is needed, or semi-skilled labor can be offered training...with whatever amenities are necessary for employees to be productive--transportation and a reliable phone are huge deals for a homeless person...

It's not enough to say "I'll hire the homeless, give them a chance" just to make the news...it's much better to say "I'm committed to doing whatever it really takes to put someone back on their feet, provided they are willing to work "
I believe gmail downloads and caches images when it receives the email now.
It is true an API is not a painting, but this is not a claim I made. The API specified in these legal matters is work product created on behalf of a legal entity who has a claim to its copyright that is legally filed and maintained. Both Google and Oracle agree on that fact according to the document I linked. If you still disagree, take it up with those parties.
The notion that minority individuals have to work twice as hard to get the same recognition as the equivalent majority individual.
What they still don't do, as far as I can tell, is make it possible to report malware type ads.

On a clean system I was watching stuff on youtube and got some random malware ad being served up (not a video pre-roll ad, one of the banners that shows up in the video area). It was the typical "Drivers are out of date" type bullshit.

I spent about 20 minutes trying to report that it was malicious,but couldn't find out how to do it. Clicking on the "Ad by Google" link just took me to a random Adsense marketing type page.
The closest to what you want might be ATS.
"Dropwizard (http://www.dropwizard.io/) pulls together stable, mature libraries from the Java ecosystem into a simple, light-weight package that lets you focus on getting things done."

It's easy to get up and running, and I've grown to appreciate the emphasis on stable, mature libraries in Dropwizard compared to some of the more bleeding edge libraries that I've fought with in other "opinionated" Java frameworks that try to approximate the RoR experience.

Dropwizard gives you the option of using either JDBI or Hibernate for an ORM. My suggestion would be to go with Hibernate, even though it's a beast and you will waste time deciphering cryptic error messages and hunting down crippling N+1 select performance problems. Even with those issues, I feel that Hibernate is worth using, as even on small projects it can save you from writing thousands of lines of monotonous database access code.
I don't think YC cares about growth, or if you're early/late stage (yeah I know this goes against what the president said..but hear me out). We also got refused being a B2B startup with extreme growth and only less than 6 months old solving a real world problem. The difference is that our startup was boring web SaaS, without any crazy tech or AI. If you look at their latest batch most companies are hardware, biotech, energy, or some batshit crazy algorithm AI buzzwordy startup. They're going deep and risking a lot, and this is probably what I would do too if I had a big fund 8 years later.

Quora got in YC after already raising many rounds and through other accelator..but that was 2 years ago when YC wasn't 100% crazy tech only yet: http://techcrunch.com/2014/05/11/quora-y-combinator/
Not if you use openjdk.
I'm fairly down on Quora, but ~everything https://www.quora.com/profile/Jason-M.-Lemkin has written looks pretty amazing -- I wish he'd write a book or something.
afaict neither of those ads are by Google.
Which is even better. You can change the image right after sending it, so anyone they send it to is guaranteed to get a different image.
Rust is a nicer language than Go---especially its type system. That might be reason enough.

What do you mean by `doesn't target backend app'?
> pretty technically feasible

Not only feasible, it's extremely easy to do these days with things like React (+Redux). We're about to launch a fairly large project for an Australian broadcaster using this approach and it's been incredibly simple to do.

And there's nothing ~magic~ that React does to make this possible - it would be quite trivial to 'roll your own' framework for this. Best of all, you could start with doing it just server-side and then roll out the JS to 'the other side' later on.
It's a weird language bug. I wish English (and my own tongue) was as consistent with the dots as Turkish is. ;)
Ending Our FG Angels Experiment
Loved the article, but I don't like Julie's redesign of Facebook. Am I the only one? To remind yourself, here's pictures of older facebook designs: http://getlevelten.com/blog/julie-miller/if-you-didnt-design...

I prefer the 2010 design by a mile. FWIW, I also prefer Gmail's old design.
If that's what they meant though, then affirmative action (universities are clearly an institution) would be racist. So would minority business initiatives organized by the government.

I don't think they consider those things racist though, so that can't be their definition.
Google crawls Javascript sites, but it doesn't execute AJAX calls so most SPA's still won't be crawlable by Google.

I have two good reasons not to choose Kotlin. The first is until I started reading this thread on HN I had never heard of Kotlin. The second is I attempted to find kotlin in a job listing on Monster.com in several major cities and managed to only find one single listing in Los Angeles. The job listing says they are transitioning to Java. My argument of course is from the greater view of the business and not a laser focus on Kotlin as a technical decision, but for most projects you should choose a much safer option with insane amounts of support and developers on the market by the boat loads.
??? Sounds like FUD to me.
Am I crazy or is it kinda weird that someone like that is already in office in that area?
Not a socialist thing per se[1], but a common, general mentality that the taint of the profit motive counts very strongly against even a large amount of good effects in the moral calculus.

[1] Edit: Let's be fair -- there are probably a lot of intelligent socialists who have a more nuanced understanding of the impacts of these programs and the dynamics at play.

How are you doing the push?
I have a friend who's been a cop in the area for a few years and I recall him complaining about some circumstance that caused him to have to visit a house several times over a weekend (I want to say it was a monitored alarm system on an unoccupied residence that was malfunctioning). He said that despite knowing with complete certainty that it was a false alarm, he was required to treat it as though a crime in progress could be happening.

I'm going to hazard a guess that a similar situation exists here -- a citizen complains and involves the police, they probably have no choice but to treat it as though "maybe this time the phone is really there". It may not be up to the local police, it could very well be a county/state regulation or law that causes that.
Sorry for the late reply (hope you will see it). I wrote this a long time ago, but I think it might be useful in your current situation: http://mikekchar.github.io/portfolio/LanguageAcquisition/

Long story short: how do I get to a point where appropriate answer pop into my head automatically without having to sit there reasoning about it for a long time.
Classical economics does not claim to want to increase demand, and Keynesian economic only wants to correct for unnaturally low (or high) demand due to short run fluctuations.

There is nothing wrong with a four hour work week. The reason people still work long hours is not careful engineering of the economy to keep demand high, but people's natural desire for essentials like healthcare, and also luxuries and status-signalling goods. Also hours seem to be decreasing in Europe, which has a different culture to the US.

Also, one (left-wing) colleague of mine made the following point to me when I said something similar about economic growth: Would I be happy to see the world level out on a 1920's standard of living, including healthcare? If not, why is the current standard of living acceptable? Especially when a given average standard of living will also entail people who are much worse off. So to raise the standard of the worst off, we most likely need growth for everyone.
> Lekei said by email that the couple’s router could be causing the problem; if misconfigured, it could be broadcasting that it’s a different location than it actually is

Wait, what? Is my router broadcasting a location to someone? What technology is this, and how do I make sure my router isn't doing it?
Would the ghc-like LANGUAGE pragmas work?
Sad how there's a simple answer to that problem and nobody has been able to answer it correctly so far.

It falls directly out of the requirement that physics works the same in boosted reference frames. With Gallilean relativity if you were traveling at 0.5c then the speed of light in front of you would be 0.5c and behind you would be 1.5c. This wouldn't just affect tabletop physics experiments but would change everything about atomic and molecular physics which is all just applied electrodynamics.

That means your biology would fail in odd ways due to chemical reactions in your body changing if you were traveling fast.

SR is just Einstein working backwards from wanting to keep the equations of E+M invariant to however fast you were traveling.

As a result, the speed of light needs to be constant in all reference frames. That means if you are traveling at 0.5c you measure the speed of light to still just be c.

All of SR basically falls out of that, including implying that c is s 'speed limit'. Although I guess to be technical that's also built on principles like conservation of energy and momentum, but you can get those from Noether's theory and space and time translational symmetries.

There might be a deeper more naval-gazing philosophical question here as to 'why' we find ourselves in a universe that has physical laws that work the same in highly boosted reference frames. It actually does us a favor as far as space travel and interplanetary travel goes since otherwise we'd be forever limited to traveling at substantial fractions of the speed of light to other star systems (to keep our biology from failing).

The local relativity of physical laws is also critical to extend the theory to General Relativity and express Gravity as the curvature of space-time. Without SR, then the theoretical basis of GR will necessarily fall apart.

There's no a priori reason why the Universe could not have had Galilean relativity, though, but gravity couldn't work the same way and physics in boosted reference frames would be very weird. There might be some perverse cosmological result of taking Galilean relativity to its extreme, but I wouldn't know what that was.
