Creating a Limited Company is in order to protect company owners from the debts of the company. For me to expose my company to the liability of doing business with your company, e.g. give you credit terms, I would rather like to know your financial soundness.

As someone who writes some pretty hardcore UIs in Cocoa, this reactive style stuff seems applicable to a pretty narrow class of application.

The more you fight Cocoa, which I believe this stuff does, the bigger the mess you'll create for yourself once you view hierarchy becomes large and filled with custom views that don't really fit what 99% of these tutorials cover.

Furthermore, trying emulate "dom" diffing by replacing views, instead of updating them, as they seem to be illustrating towards the end of the article (could be reading this wrong though) is pretty inefficient way of doing things in Cocoa.
I apologise - you did say that the controls would cost more than $100. A lot of what you have been saying is fantasy though - for example, that there is no need for a train to be going 1mph faster or slower than the last time. Apparently weather conditions should be ignored?

However, just because I made an error (or even strawmanned) doesn't mean that you're not strawmanning.
That really depends on the jurisdiction.

For example, the stockholder, director, and officer information of a Nevada corporation[0] is not disclosed to the public. AFAIK there's no limit on a Nevada corporation's size for these privacy guarantees to continue to apply.

I'm not trying to be overly critical here, but what else are you bringing to the table? At $1600 in SE Asia, I can get my own 1bdrm apartment, coworking space, and eat out for every meal. I'm currently in Bangkok - I pay $750 for a very large, serviced 1 bdrm, $150 for a coworking membership, and couldn't spend $800 on food if I tried. Admittedly, Bangkok is about the cheapest example - but that is probably why there are so many nomads here.
You forgot to provide a link :) - https://beta.companieshouse.gov.uk/help/welcome

Smaller companies (and the bar is set pretty high; see https://www.gov.uk/annual-accounts/microentities-small-and-d...) can supply abbreviated accounts. These are pretty useless for anybody looking - it's just a snapshot at year end, with no information about totals over the year. The accounts for my company provide the following details:

- Money currently owed to it [A]

- Current bank account balance [B]

- Amount it currently owes [C]

- Total share capital (also available from the annual return) [D]

- P&L - A+B-C-D

- Shareholder's funds - A+B-C

It's not actually very easy to get accurate figures from this. For a software/consulting/contracting/etc. type business I suppose multiplying A by 6-12 (assuming it's 1-2 months of income owed by clients/payment processor/etc.) is probably your best guess at estimating revenue... but if the year end was at all unusual, you're out of luck. Cash in the bank is merely suggestive, and money owed could be just about anything.

I think JSPM should stress the part about bundling. It's the second person that I see who says "JSPM is slow" and the reason behind this slowness is that they didn't bundle the files or bundled them incorrectly.

We do the same in our project: we bundle all the 3rd party libs when they change, so only our own code gets retranspiled on each page load. During deployment, we bundle all the JS in a single bundle (which is good for us, as we don't have too much JS in that project).

It is cheap, but how do you measure that? There's no impact factor or associated journal publication.

Since simply providing the data can't be measured for tenure or fit into a line item on a CV, academia as a whole assigns it zero value. This then means that simply sharing data is a huge net negative given the high costs of acquiring it.
Hmmm, sorry if it's not clear but we aren't replacing views after the diffing, we are updating them (that's what we use RxSwift for). The diffing is used to determine which views to add, which to remove, and which to update.

Stable prices with a gentle growth are better for everyone. It's not important if oil is cheap or expensive in the long run, what matters is that you can make sensible forecasts and do long range planning without having to worry about one of your main inputs wildly fluctuating in price and causing havoc across the board.

Yes, cheap commodities should benefit Japan but when they're cheap because demand is weak, Japan suffers from that too.

Gas is one of those things I have no control over. If it's expensive I have to pay, if it's cheap I have to pay. I'm dependent, and in a city like Los Angeles the alternative is impossible. They raised the price of public transport to a point where it is not even convenient.

So when I go to the gas station and it's cheap I'm happy. I fill it up and have a smile on my face. Am I doing it wrong?
Yeah, the "stakeholders" should get rich at the expense of the people that actually OWN the company. I'd love to see the innovation that would happen if this were implemented at scale.

>She tried with an impressive effort

That's one way to view it. I'd say it was a pretty expensive, unimpressive effort.

>rather they had listen to finance people

Uh, you realize that it's also "finance people" that have been standing behind Amazons rise as well, right? Just because you read a couple of articles on HN about activists wanting to see profits, in no way does that represent all "finance people". Amazon has a lot of shareholders. Like it or not, "finance people" aren't some homogeneous group of self interested, greedy trolls.

Sorry for the marketing shots.
I was going to point out that it appears most of your text is invisible, off to the right, inaccessible on my browser. I was going to take a screen shot at normal size, then decrease the size of font in my browser to be able to highlight just how much text was missing so you could see.

Then I was going to capture the text so I could read what you'd written and see if it was interesting, and whether I could make any constructive comments about it.

Then I realized I had work to do, and the half hour I would spend trying to access your article and help you find the error in the layout was of potentially no value to me, while costing me time.

Color me with the "Grumpy Old Man" pen - I've decided to leave this quick note telling you that the formatting on your page renders it completely unreadable, and then close it and go do some

EDIT: OK, here's a screenshot:

You'll notice by the scrollbar that the actual article is already 3/4 of the way down the page - I initially thought there was nothing on it. Then look at the first paragraph - how much is missing on the right?

I'm glad someone knowledgable on the topic has written about this.

When I saw the report, and then saw people I respect heralding it as a huge breakthrough, it seemed over-the-top.

But I'm no scientist or medical expert, and I'm bored of emotion-driven debates about medical science between myself and other scientific laypeople, so I kept my thoughts - and the results of my own hunt for further details - to myself.

But as the report says, evidence and details of genetic mechanisms in schizophrenia (and other mental and neurological disorders) are not new.

Sure this discovery may add some substance to the understanding of the topic, but it's not revolutionary.

The real revolution will be when science figures out exactly why and how some people with a given genetic predisposition for an illness will develop that illness, whilst others do not.

As discussed in this article about the 2003 book The Gene Illusion [1], the 50% rate of identitical twin concordance for schizophrenia is widely cited as evidence that it is a genetically deterministic condition.

But whether or not the figure is really 50% or something lower, that still leaves at least 50% room for non-genetic factors.

We'll only start making real progress in curing these kinds of illnesses when we form a deep understanding of whatever is going on in that very large component that we already know is not purely genetic.

"cheap" is "bad" because it encourages "hoarding". Instead, those that run the economy would much rather put you on a treadmill of devaluation, which forces you to keep working harder (better unemployment figures!) and consume. Basically short shrift the working class of the value of their income - it's a backdoor paycut for workers[0]. It also forces the middle class into investing directly or indirectly (through pension funds, 401ks, etc) in the stock market, which is great for the ̶r̶i̶c̶h̶ economy and socializes the downside of entrepreneurial risk while letting entrepreneurs keep the upside.

[0] Don't take my word for that, it's in the words of nobel laureate Paul Krugman: http://krugman.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/02/13/the-case-for-hig... "Yet when you have very low inflation, getting relative wages right would require that a significant number of workers take wage cuts. So having a somewhat higher inflation rate would lead to lower unemployment, not just temporarily, but on a sustained basis."
For those suggesting the German UG, be aware that dissolving and operating it can be quite expensive. Fine if you have a solid business, problematic if it's more of a test and you simply needed some 'real' company for that stripe account...

Yearly filing must be done by a tax accountant and you have to pay for the 'services' of the Handelskammer, which is around 800 and 200 EUR at least, respectively, per year.
Dissolving takes one year at the very least and incurs additional cost of at least EUR 500,- plus the year in which the company lives as a zombie, so 1.5k total.

If the price you pay doesn't cover the externalities (i.e. tax that includes the cost of cleaning up an equivalent amount of CO2 etc. emissions) then yes you're doing it wrong. If you're covering all that then sure, enjoy.

In the more general case, rapid price swings cause trouble all round (they make it hard for everyone to plan) even when the price adjustment is "correct". For the economy as a whole, low prices are better than high prices, but a stable price would be better than a volatile price even if the volatile average price was lower.

Hi,

Oracle and SQL Server databases are pretty interesting technologies ... unfortunately, it all comes down to how these products are used. There are companies that use advanced features of these products and your input there might be invaluable, exploring and etc. might be challenging and fulfilliong work, helping others with database-related problems ... And there are other companies where the databases are just stopped/patched/started and nothing else. A DBA there could commit suicide out of nowhere :) I bet you know what I mean.

I'm just trying to say that being a DBA in another company could be a completely different story from being a DBA at the company you're currently in.

Wish you all the best and being happy with the changes you're going to make in the near future.

Apps like HotelTonight and AirBnB also mean that your chances of finding a last-minute deal on a place to crash are probably better than finding a last-minute deal on a locksmith. Even better is a friend's couch :)

A friend of mine got scammed like this in the middle of the night, it ended up costing him somethings like €300. One night I found myself in a similar situation and just walked into a nice nearby hotel, gave them my story, and they let me have a unbooked room for a decent rate. After a nice night's sleep, 15 minutes in the gym sauna, and a good breakfast I was able to go to my local locksmith who could get my door open for a reasonable rate.
I'm wondering for some time if the minification could be done in a way that would help the gzipping achieve better ratios.

For example if you have to minified function and one has three local variables and the other two it might be beneficial to minify it as "var a, b;var c;" if there are a lot of functions with two parameters a only one with 3. Or always assign "this" to a variable called "t" so that "t=this" (or "var t=this;") is repeated often.

This seems to be low hanging fruit but there is a lot of microoptimizations like that even if it saves <5% like this brute forcing it might be worthwhile.

"..You could replace underlines, with hover with a transition effect or animate on appearance (as going back or forwards), etc."

No, that misses the point. An underline has a very specific meaning. It is not just aesthetics. If put a handle on a door that you push to open, people will pull on the door on their first attempt. By doing this you've changed the meaning of a handle to all users of the building. Now, a user can no longer rely on the visual affordances provided by "door handle". They must navigate and interpret each and every interaction with a door in that building.

Removing an underline remove a very important part of what an hyperlink is. And I would argue that the colour of a hyperlink is just as important.
There are different effects of the lower oil price on Japan's economy. BoJ staff have weighted them and determined that the net of them will threaten to move inflation growth off target.

How is the growth of inflation threatened? The BoJ thinks business confidence in Japan will drop because of recessions in trading partners.

This is why it is responding with a policy that will hopefully be more aggressive in pursuing higher inflation and GDP to offset the foreign developments.

In BoJ's own words in point two in the press release:

Definitely UK. Usual reasons (very very cheap, like $20 and then $20/yr filing fees), good legal system, you can do nearly all tax/regulatory paperwork online/through APIs (in fact, it's nearly impossible to do it by paper now).

Corp tax is 20% and up to £~45k pa you will pay no further income tax on dividends drawn down (though I think this is changing this year to 5%).

Flat rate VAT scheme is helpful for smaller companies.

But by far the best thing is the ridiculously good tax breaks the govt offers for startups, esp tech.

SEIS allows investors tax refunds for 50% of their initial investment, plus 25% if you fail. Which means for every £1 they put in, the govt is 'underwriting/giving you' £3. And if you succeed they will pay no further capital gains tax on their realised gains.

R&D allows you to get back 23% of qualifying R&D costs in cash (or deducted off your corp tax bill).

Put those numbers together and you can see why you should incorporate in the UK...

> Docker enables you to package up your application along with all of the application’s dependencies into a nice self-contained image. You can then use use that image to run your application in containers.

Actually docker was created to enable easy scaling of web applications. If you want to package your application up take a look at some modern package managers. By using a modern package manager like nix you can work around the issues of containers while still keeping the "it just works" advantage of containers.

This does not mean that containers are bad, it's just that using a good package manager is usually a simpler solution.

if privacy is an issue open up a Luxembourg SA (société anonyme).

Compared to others Luxembourg has a good standing and no image problems combined with good banking privacy. You can sign contracts with anyone without being labelled as operating in a tax haven. Operating costs are more competitive than France. Most people speak 3 languages. Accountants & Lawyers are familiar with the law and tax code of their neighbours (France / Belgium / Germany).

But if privacy is not a problem I'd always register where my clients are. If you want to do freelancing in Germany and invoice German clients with a UK Ltd then be prepared that it is more likely that the Finanzamt will knock on your door - and if they do they will be taking a very thorough look.
Crikey seeing this in context really brings home the triviality of this whole thing. The only reason somebody would be offended by this would be if they knew what it meant in the first place - it's plausible that it's accidental. Yes there is a case for making the change but in doing so you're acknowledging that it was a mistake in the first place (because an observer attributed it as such) and you're setting a precedent - are you going to have to attend to every prude that objects to anything? Anybody who is smart enough to read code should be smart enough to see this for what it is.

IMHO if this guy mounted a campaign on this issue banning was appropriate if a little heavy handed. A subtle talking to might be better but raising a bug is a matter of record, and that makes things a little trickier.
