From a culture where drugs aren't very much taboo (Dutch), I'm very interested in the (scientific) positive effects of hallucinogens. There seems to be more and more research going on in this, for many taboo, field with very interesting observations. Here's a great article (of a series) from 2014 which hovers over several researches in the years prior and covers some essential history: http://www.scpr.org/news/2014/05/19/44178/psychedelic-scienc...

What sets me off hard on this article is that the writer hallucinated from hash. I suppose anyone can have an off-the-charts response, but I've never seen anyone hallucinate from it. It's also rather striking how much of a 'hero' story this is. Started as a 'typical busy guy', 'struck by lightning', 'fear of death', 'start of epic quest', 'triumphed by wonder potion'. It's all so perfect.

Maybe I'm just paranoid, and I applaud any (including this) discussion of taboos, but I can't help but feeling skeptic about the genuinity of this article.
I'm seeing about 80% less power on a mid-2012 Macbook Air with a 2GHz Core i7 for Evernote vs. Turtl. I'm guessing more parallelization is even more beneficial on lower speed multi-core processors.
This, 100%. I agree that complex tasks are generally better solved in an environment driven by intrinsic motivation - heck, probably all tasks and not just complex tasks.

I'm not sure if Jira and other task tracking tools can be used just as well to document work done by intrinsic motivators though. I mean, yes, they _can_ be, but I don't think they're as good as they could be. In fact, I'd say there's a big gap in the market for a solution that gives non-technical managers some reassurance that progress is being made while also not getting in the way of the ad hoc workflows the post describes.
But that's not really flashing under Linux is it? That just sticking the file somewhere their non-linux flash tool can see. Not saying that it's not helpful to be able to do so, it does remove Windows from the equation (did it myself just last night as it happens).
Does it run on my own server, encrypting data with keys the server never sees?
There are two common interpretations of the "The pot calling the kettle black", neither of which is as you describe.

I'm in the same boat. I know the risks, but I've essentially entrusted my entire online presence to third-party services.

Why? Simply because they are better.

Ugh, this isn't acceptable.

Like almost all 'cloud' services, I treat all data in Evernote as non-confidential and thus don't keep private information within it and I take regular backups. Do I trust a hobby / standard web-dev project as any more secure just because they day it is and might have an extra layer of encryption - no.

It shows exactly this, but also states that physical sales in turn become ads for their movies. Literal quote: "Music: keeps films in mind when they're out of circulation." Let It Go must be a gold mine: content for the movie, a top 10 hit song, and an ad for Frozen DVDs & toys every time a little kid annoyingly runs around singing it.
If it is a JS app of some kind that would make sense, I've been ranting a lot about JS apps recently so I won't go into it here - needless to say they're anything but efficient in my experience.

Edit: Also, I should note that I have many hundreds of notes in Evernote, where I created 15-20 in this app, I would have expected Evernote to need more resources to search such a large number of notes.

We have an app on iOS app store. And I am currently working on another iOS app that will be submitted to app store this month.

Our team consists only of web developers, but we really wanted app that feels native, so we evaluated the tools and came to conclusion that react-native will suit our needs.

I am not well informed about mobile app development in general but I found experience with react-native quite good.

Debugging process is quite the same to web development, open chrome go to sources tab and set breakpoints as you wish. Use CTRL+R to refresh the app the same as you would on the webpage. Performance is OK but generally you have to be more careful than on the web. Implementing `shouldComponentUpdate` can lead to drastic performance improvements.

Writing bridges between javascript and native code is really easy, even for somebody who has no idea about obj-c. So integrating custom third party libraries is quite easy.

I really enjoy development with react-native and would recommend it to any webdev who want to try app development.
No need to read up on von Mises to read speculation on what happens to an economy without a fiat currency. Greece has no control over its currency, thus essentially may as well be on a gold standard. It's a hard road.
well there are more than a few companies which sponsor a women's only executive leadership training system/etc. There are all sorts of ways for people in the right positions to drive the company where they want it to go and drive out those they don't want and have it all covered up nice and neat
The idea that chakras are actual physical "things" is extremely doubtful (kundalini is a real thing though - and don't argue with me :), but as a model for psychological processes and insights, the chakra system is superior to anything Freud concocted.

I'd recommend Anodea Judith's "Eastern Body, Western Mind" for a solid introduction - she has a master's in clinical psych and it's a good book that isn't all new age BS, though you do have to be willing to try and understand how metaphors work... it's just a model, much like software is really only insubstantial thought-stuff that through the interface of hardware, actually can interact with the world.

The problem with a lot of "New Agers" is that they can't think abstractly - they are like the early Christians who got laughed at by the pagans for believing their version of the "dead and resurrected god" myth was the literal truth. But from a psychological angle, such a myth is very informative about something part of the "human condition".
And we've seen that US laws aren't worth the paper they're printed on when it comes to curbing the mass surveilance apparatus. Leaving the policing of their own hungry three-letter agencies to the US is a laughable proposal.
Shit. Thanks for your correction, I can no longer edit the above comment to reflect it, sorry.

That's odd. We get excited when we see an entrepreneurial profile like yours. We have several developers who want to start companies and actually try to help them along that path.

The benefit to a motivated engineer is you can give them problems to solve instead of specs. The outcome or results can be less predictable but can also be much more effective.
I would recommend RescueTime so you can see exactly where your time goes and how much time you spend on certain websites, etc.
Out of interest, do you think they are mostly better or easier?

I guess it comes down to weighing the cost of your time / effort into researching / using alternatives vs the risk of trusting random people from the internet - of course there's no one answer or solution so it's probably case by case depending on the data being transferred or stored IMO.

TL;DR for parent comment: "It's not as mature as Evernote, and it has a bigger footprint." Therefore your comment is unfair: if provides a less complex evernote function that many could use.

Neither of these is unfixable over time, as the product develops, and some may be a function of the increased security implementation. None of these criticisms stops the app being usable, as far as I can see.

automation is the key ^_^
I'm glad of an alternative, mostly because Evernote being the last bad option to date, has terrible UX. And the search is substandard. I use it because I can use it on mobile and desktop, and back it up frequently to multiple formats in case Evernote dies, or wipes my data in error.

(Please everybody who uses note apps, back them up now to external files!)
Relevant piece of trivia: I went to a meetup at Facebook's London offices a few months back and heard a presentation from the FB @ Work lead. This may surprise some but FB @ Work was entirely built by their London team in London.

As you can imagine, they had to touch just about every part of the Facebook code base to make it happen. They still managed to pull it off despite being a "remote" team and unknown entity at first. Great to see some major engineering projects being owned here in the UK.

Oral works as well - no pain in the nose, etc - but it does take more ketamine. As for the IV... these are doctors administrating it. An IV allows for more precision, and a point of the treatment, it seems, is to avoid the K-hole effect - which would seriously disturb a lot of patients.

If I was using opiates for a medical purpose, I would want to be precise - heroin vs making poppy tea.

Ask HN: Which industry sector should I target?
Hi, I am curious if anyone could give any suggestions as to an appropriate sector
within the software development industry given my interests.

My interests within the field is not what one would call
narrow. Primarily though, I have a fondness for programming
language theory, compilers, parsing and writing my own DSLs so
that I can make powerful compile-time assertions regarding my
code as well as generate tests automatically from the DSL itself.

My StackOverflow cv has an additional set of tasks that pertain
to my interests, http://stackoverflow.com/cv/filipallberg.

Regarding my primary interests, the only relevant "thing" I have
come up with is web-scraping, but I find it is a dull task as it
is a trivial matter to me.

Machine vision is also something that I think a lot about,
however most of my ideas are consumer-facing utilities and not
something to build a business around. If I get a good idea I'd be
willing to go into business myself.
I thought most people's complaint was that Microsoft caused stagnation, not instability. Explorer was too stable for most developers' tastes.
> But that's not really flashing under Linux is it?

Indeed not. But if we are going to nitpick, my first question would be what value does being able to flash new firmware from inside Linux achieve compared to what we have today: a OS-agnostic bootable update-medium?
and no mention of John Lilly? I expected more of HN! Lilly of course is the exemplar of cautionary tales and why highly analytic people ought to treat K with much respect.

Ask HN: Has cloud storage innovation stalled?
Why do cloud storage services like s3 not have alternative file upload/download interfaces like ftp, scp & git? Why don't they have database like search functions? Why isn't it easy as pie to create a massive scale file sharing system with individual access rights for millions of people?
Just in time for Emacs, XWidget support and Webkit embedded in Emacs then.

If businesses didn't make promises before they knew if they could keep them, the deadlines wouldn't be such a problem.

If an employee agrees to a deadline, it's fine. If an employee is just told they have to complete a task within a deadline that they're weren't included in estimating, that's not the employee at fault.
Never said it made sense, just that at lots of places that was the rule.

For your what its worth I agree with you, if you are at the point where an attacker is executive a compiler you are already hosed.
I've honestly found my SwiftKey experience getting significantly worse over time to the point where I'm ready to drop it entirely.

The predictions/autocompletes just seem completely batshit crazy compared to when I first started using it.

Although if Microsoft are the new owners of the software then I'm definitely going to drop it anyway.

I agree with much of what you're saying. However I'm not sure your comparison with Google Glass is fitting. The market for a functional Google Glass might also have been a lot bigger than 50 000. Not a lot of people outside the tech-environment knew a whole lot about it, and there weren't really an eco-system around it since it was never a consumer-grade product.

So I think the market is bigger than previous numbers indicate, however I'm not sure how close to perfection it would need to be to show it's true colors. Hopefully the launch of Oculus and Vive might give us an indicator this year.

(As an anecdote,) personally I would want something like this if it actually had enough content to let me reuse the product without indefinitelly replaying tech-demos. :)

Handguns have a lot of advantages in home defense, such as maneuverability and much better retention if things get up close and personal (the lever arm of a long gun is necessarily much longer, an adversary can grab it outside of your grasp and twist it out of your hands, as I demonstrated to my stronger and fitter nephew before he went to college, a bit to his surprise).

I don't know about TrueType or hinting, but there are a couple of post-processing shaders that achieve the effect, as commonly used by emulators[1].

If these fonts are used in some kind of retro game, those shaders could be applied as well. Desktop compositor on X11 effects could do the same. Not sure if there is a way to apply shaders to an entire desktop elsewhere (maybe f.lux do something like that to change the colours?)

But.. there is a way to make people listen to you.

Hype, right?

Choosing problems for their theatrical effect, rather than utility. Writing articles and research papers as if they're marketing pamphlets. Claiming that incremental improvements are paradigm shifts. Treating arbitrary achievements as if they were commonly agreed upon milestones all along.

All of this is happening right now. Being skeptical in such environment is the only right thing to do.

Deep Learning is getting them, in an increasing number of diverse fields.

If you look for practical applications that give tangible benefits to people outside of academia, the achievement of applied deep learning so far aren't nearly as impressive as you make them out to be. This is despite insane levels of hype, huge investments in research and amounts of computing power available.

Heck, if anything, the fact that AlphaGo needs to use a tree search to prop up its ANN components could be seen as a sign that ANNs have some serious practical limitations when it comes to "results". Which is kind of the point of the article.

I like to think that's more due to the total thickness of the camera unit, not so much the lens. That, or the required distance between the lens and sensor.
