That's a stupid reply. I don't question the right of the Ocaml/OPIE developers to ignore platforms they don't like and use. I question the wisdom in doing so.

Asking people who aren't invested in the slightest in your language so far to start hacking on your tooling before they can try and learn your language is an interesting onboarding strategy.
It can absolutely lead to jail. Don't pay the fine in time, suspended license. Driving on a suspended license? Arrestable offense. Miss your court date? Warrant. Even if you go to court and they put you on a payment plan, that gives you a few months to pay it, costs even more, and if you don't pay in time you've violated a court order.

If you don't pay a probation fine in time, you can quickly go right back to jail to serve the remainder of your sentence.
They would own the datacenter, theoretically. People could come to Dell, and Dell would supply all of the hardware, from the storage to the virtualization to the servers. With VMWare owning Nicira, I guess that also including the virtual networking as well. It could be a compelling story, except IBM has already talked about how datacenter sales have dropped, so the US at least is probably overcapacity at this point. Bad timing, but not unexpected for a company like Dell, some this knuckle-headed is expected more from HP.

The funny thing is, virtualization is dying. All of the large private datacenters these days are non-virtualized bare metal on commodity hardware. Virtualization is an unnecessary overhead when it comes to datacenters these days. And enterprise storage is also not "web scale" since it's faster to shard data across 100k servers than have a single huge database with a single point of failure.
Given the number of companies exit at 100m vs exit 1-99m is huge. They're taking a bet at the earliest possible time and are only making money in the case of extreme success.

As a lifelong bootstrapper, bootstrapping seems to be generally self-funded. Which involves seeding some money yourself, often from another source, because it involves going from 0 to 1 with as little resources as possible and using income to grow the business.

In the early stages of bootstrapping the only goal is to nail down what customers will pay for. Spending as little as possible to reach such a lightbulb is bootstrapping in my experience.

It's easy to get distracted with too much free time and funding on one's hands, especially in the hands of an inexperienced founder with little to no business experience.

Bootstrapping also necessarily doesn't need to grow fast. YC itself also says to start small and get the business down before focusing on growth.

Lots of businesses are self-funded and start as a freelance -> part time -> full time.

Here's an article about how 98% of Canadians fund their startups. It's pretty funny considering how we think it's 98% not this way based on the marketing of the 2%.

Agreed. I'm quite pleased with Ansible having been around a while and seen the growth through cf_engine, custom scripts, chef, puppet, and salt. Ansible is certainly quite easy to get going, very flexible, and precise.
Try easing into it with a "everyone gets 1 WorkFromHome day a week" policy. If there is an enterprisey vacation-planning tool you use already, WFH can be added as a special kind of vacation. This means the managers can approve WFH requests so that, e.g. not everyone works from home the same day of the week.
But this time is different.

You would assume the board will have approved something like this so the investors have to take responsibility.

Wolfram is pretty shameless, but I don't think you're being fair to him here. The links to Wolfram Alpha are no different from you or I linking to a Google search, and in context the references to Wolfram's _A New Kind of Science_ speaks to Minsky's influence on his work.
Oak Island Mystery
It's actually not true to say that Schrodinger's equation, or F=ma, cannot be derived.

This is because in order to derive something, you need to first start from a set of assumptions. You can pick any assumptions you want, that is your privilege, as it is mine. If you want F=ma to be an assumption, you can go on and derive things from that.

But truly, F=ma is not the most general assumption in theoretical physics.

If you look in any decent book on classical mechanics, you will find that F=ma in fact is derived from a much more general principle, the Lagrangian.

That is the same Lagrangian that is the subject of the OP, which is used to derive the Schrodinger equation; and it's not just a coincidence.

I haven't read the post. I came here first to look for comments about Stephen Wolfram being a shameless self-promoter. Was not disappointed.

[edited to change original wording which I realize was a bit over the top, and perhaps came across as closer to an attack on Wolfram than a characterization of how he is perceived by many HN commenters.]

It does seem like every Wolfram-related thread here has more than a couple of comments about how egotistical and self-aggrandizing he sounds.

I sometimes wonder if Wolfram is aware of how he comes across to a lot of people. And if so, whether it's a deliberate strategy.
>So why not write a single big pay cheque to solve a big hard problem?

Some challenges:

- you are only as good as the people you find. Or, you are as weak as your weakest person.

- hiring in any specialized field, including consulting can be difficult to scale into a large product, because 10x consultants seem to know what they're worth (and make it) a lot more than 10x developers.

- the overhead in managing 5 other people to do things also can add up.

The positive? If you do find a few of these people, all at the same time in life, and all available and interested, you can have some pretty remarkable progress and profit, where part time consultants get more done than full time folks.

Oh, that's fine. You can just download it from one of those mirror sites that host their own copies of the files. You can trust that it's genuine because of that big green checkmark on the page.
AFAICT if you want support from Red Hat, you better not mess with the system configuration. It's probably best not to mess with too much on your production boxes anyway (maybe that's why Docker is so popular)
1) All features/algorithms were ported, and we only added new functionality that never existed in the old Python code base. A few of the features that got added include: dispatching builds, getting live logs, re-encrypt keys, deploy encrypted artifacts, fix many bugs, support running multiple agents on a single computer, etc. I should also mention that we previously had two separate downloads: a CLI used for uploading releases, and the agent used for dispatching deployments. The functionality of both of these code bases where merged into our new Lua based "client" so customers only have to install a single binary that is less than 10MB (the binary size depends on your platform).

2) Deployments with the new agent were noticeably faster, (like 1 second deployments that used to take 20+ seconds). However, this speed up was largely due to the Python codes design which had a "continuation" loop which was polling based, but the Lua code used coroutines and simply continued the threads when the steps were complete.

Overall, I think the choice to use Lua (or more specifically luvi) was a great decision. Note that it did take a few iterations in order to come up with the optimal way of using Lua + libuv. Originally I was taking the Node.JS approach of using callbacks, but that approach has two problems:

[a] It is difficult to properly implement "back pressure" so that all queues between producer and consumer are bounded.

[b] It is difficult to handle errors properly.

Lua coroutines allowed me to write a simple "green thread" library that encapsulated these challenges.
I think there is a great deal of ruin remaining to milk in the enterprise market, and VMware has little competition in most customers.

Any rewrite is going to be superior to the old code (in any language).

It sounds like the author just wanted to move it to Lua to me. I would only go with Lua over Python if you needed something more embeddable. Like the game scripting usecase it's known for. The lost libraries and language features may make some things harder. I package up Python and my code, deploy it to other platforms all the time with under 5MB footprint in a single executable using PyInstaller.

That said, it'll work out fine with Lua. My question would be who will maintain something years down the road. There's far more Python devs than Lua. The blog said he joined in 2014 so it may end up being someone else.

From Zen Buddhism to Preying on Vulnerable Women (2013)
In most arena-shooter-type games, you don't need 32x memory for 32x players, because the per-player state is fairly constrained and known. (Often limited to how many projectiles they can keep in the air at once.)

I suspect Minecraft has a much harsher profile, since it's possible for every player to be loading a different piece of the world with minimal overlap, and world-pieces involve a lot more state that needs to be preserved/calculated/saved.

Not a new idea. Here's a call for it from 1905:

"The time is comm' and though I'm no youngster, I may see it, when New York City will break away from the State and become a state itself. It's got to come. The feelin' between this city and the hayseeds that make a livin' by plunderin' it is every bit as bitter as the feelin' between the North and South before the war. And, let me tell you, if there ain't a peaceful separation before long, we may have the horrors of civil war right here in New York State. Why, I know a lot of men in my district who would like nothin' better today than to go out gunnin' for hayseeds!

New York City has got a bigger population than most of the states in the Union. It's got more wealth than any dozen of them. Yet the people here, as I explained before, are nothin' but slaves of the Albany gang. We have stood the slavery a long, long time, but the uprisin' is near at hand. It will be a fight for liberty, just like the American Revolution. We'll get liberty peacefully if we can; by cruel war if we must.

Just think how lovely things would be here if we had a Tammany Governor and Legislature meetin', say in the neighborhood of Fifty-ninth Street, and a Tammany Mayor and Board of Aldermen doin' business in City Hall! How sweet and peaceful everything would go on!

The people wouldn't have to bother about nothin'. Tammany would take care of everything for them in its nice quiet way. You wouldn't hear of any conflicts between the state and city authorities. They would settle everything pleasant and comfortable at Tammany Hall, and every bill introduced in the Legislature by Tammany would be sure to go through. The Republicans wouldn't count.

Imagine how the city would be built up in a short time! At present we can't make a public improvement of any consequence without goin' to Albany for permission, and most of the time we get turned down when we go there. But, with a Tammany Governor and Legislature up at Fifty-ninth Street, how public works would hum here! The Mayor and Aldermen could decide on an improvement, telephone the Capitol, have a bill put through in a jiffy and—there you are. We could have a state constitution, too, which would extend the debt limit so that we could issue a whole lot more bonds. As things are now, all the money spent for docks, for instance, is charged against the city in calculatin' the debt limit, although the Dock Department provides immense revenues. It's the same with some other departments. This humbug would be dropped if Tammany ruled at the Capitol and the City Hall, and the city would have money to burn." -- George Washington Plunkett [1]

It's been my experience that clever architecture tends to beat clever coding and tactics.

I don't think I started to have an idea of what being a better programmer was, until I had a relationship with multiple code bases that I had started or built and were 5-7 years old.

What came from it?

- idea of being kind to your future self,

- coding in a way that the next person could quickly pick up on it vs building a tribute to my own cleverness

- not prematurely optimizing

- refactoring being expected

- learning to solve all sorts of small and not-small problems

- being open to the idea that few problems haven't been thought about or solved already

Suspended, not dissolved. This is millions of tiny rocks stirred up in water. If that were injected into anything all manner of negative processes would start, all ending in massive clots/strokes. Perhaps this has some application externally, maybe on burns, but it isn't going to be injected into anything anytime soon.
Interesting, what do we need to make a market?
I'm not sure if you've consulted on the side with a team that generates income. You get a team that can build and work together.

While helping customers solve problems in their industry, you are effectively paid to do market research to find the gaps and find a product need that the existing customers are willing to start paying for immediately.

The challenge can be is maintaining some sort of balance, but there is plenty to learn from in terms of market and product needs from consulting. I am a better product developer because of it.
Is this really true? That we don't know, or only have a very vague idea about the pharmacodynamics, or simply the mechanism of action of various treatments, so the process is more about establishing that they aren't harmful?
