I think there are two phenomena here:

1) Opportunity cost: The land on campus, due to being near campus stuff, has appreciated a lot in value, so it doesn't make sense to use as dorms (instead of whatever else) unless you can charge out the nose for it.

2) Access to loans "for education" is easy to get, and this counts as part of the education package, so students figure to pay for not having to park or to walk as far.

The conclusion of the diabetes-related study you linked to is not that diet soda causes insulin resistance, but that diet soda consumption is positively associated with metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes.

The nature of the link is not established, but the authors speculate that diet soda consumption may lead to increased consumption of high-sugar beverages or food either directly by causing sugar cravings or indirectly by impairing the ability to gauge whether one has eaten enough.
I'm saying that this usually doesn't matter to the people who would be using Parse anyway, because they operate under a timeline much shorter than this. In a year, their startup will either be dead or they'll have the funding to migrate off Parse. On a timescale equal to your lifetime, it's almost a guarantee that FB will pull the plug on Parse. But on a timescale equal to the time period when you need Parse, it's actually a pretty good bet.

If you had tried out Parse right when they got acquired by FB, chances are you would either have a fundable business that can hire engineers to move to your own infrastructure, or you would know that your business idea doesn't work. Either way, you no longer need Parse.

Similarly, the shutdown mostly affects "zombie" businesses - the ones that aren't dead, but aren't growing either - because in a year, you should be able to figure out whether or not your business concept has legs.

And the stored calories, like body fat and glycogen? What side of the equation are those on? And the energy needed to convert complex carbs and protein into glycogen? The energy used converting glycogen to ATP?

If you can demonstrate everywhere the energy comes from and everywhere it goes and where and how it's used in the body, I imagine there's a nobel prize in it for you. There's still a lot we don't know about where all that energy comes from and goes.

I see Go as having a nice niche for "systems" code that is above C, but more low level than say python. I think that is why we see it used in docker, kubernetes, etc. The ability to distribute binaries is quite handy for containers.

I am surprised that people want to use Go for web apps though.

For whatever reason, Dart seems unpopular with the HN crowd, which is shame because it is a super productive language. It has a fast VM, great tooling, a sane package management system, and a lot of deployment options. Server side libraries are still lacking, but the situation is improving.

I think there is a lot of frustration that has built over the past few years of trends in marketing prose. It used to be "cheeky positive" and now it's just cheeky. Technologists are especially tired of adjective-laden job ads, and consumers are weary of the emo marketing. I saw this on an HN post a few days back which has some examples: http://ourincrediblejourney.tumblr.com/.

I understand that marketing touches everything, but I think we have overreacted to corporate speak, and now everything just needs to be turned down a notch. I've made it a priority lately to be cordial and concise on my external comms.
You're not going to find one magic rule that defines "a country". And I would particularly caution you against using "Does China think you are a country in your own right?" as the measuring stick - they have quite notable differences in this area when compared to others.

Then I did the impossible 6 years ago. :) In Alabama, no less!

I worked through high school, saved several thousand, had a little pay-as-you-go flip phone, an old $1500 car, and rarely ever saw the inside of a restaurant.

All I know is, it worked for me.

That said, costs have been going up... so sure, it does cost more now. If I didn't have the money for a semester, I'd have just had to take less credit hours. Not optimal, but not the end of the world. And much better than paying thousands in interest for a loan.

The title does not do justice to the project. Lelylan seems to be to IoT what rails is to web app development. The title sound very underwhelming, my first thought was, well I can just use zeromq with service discovery. But Lelylan is much more than that it seems to provide an opinionated full stack framework for create IoT and related services.

The description from GitHub is much better, Lelylan is an iot cloud platform based on a lightweight microservices architecture.

I made a command generator for Minecraft. It earns somewhere between $300 - $500 $NZD per month (adsense). It's a passive income because even when I go months without working on it, I still get paid. But what I would like to know is how to make it earn about 10x more. So I can quit my main job and then just make more cool stuff for the web.

I believe it's at the peak of what it can earn. Also about 25% of users have adblocker.

Ask HN: What is the best tool to create a good looking resume?
I am applying for a job soon, where a CV is required. Meanwhile, I only have my LinkedIn-profile that exports to a terrible looking PDF.

Do you know any modern tools that allow you to create good-looking resumes and CV's?

Resume-now is flash-based and quite terrible, and Kickresume doesn't let you try anything if you don't want to pay right of the bet.
That's a very dismissive attitude toward real emotional attachments. The loss of something you've poured your life into can genuinely be traumatic, shocking, and dismaying.

I don't like the notion of applying the "first-world problem" dismissal to things that aren't trivialities. It's one thing to laugh about how you have to get up from the couch to get a remote. It's another thing entirely to talk about major changes to one's career, wiping away years of their work, or the loss of something they care deeply about as a "first-world problem".

Sure, getting acquired might be a "good problem to have", but it doesn't make its toll any less real.
Right, but if the 10bn funding was at a high multiple relative to revenue, the 409a will probably still be a lot lower. I'm not saying that it would be at 2bn, but the GP was talking about people being granted options at 10bn, and potentially they're being granted at a much lower value.
I don't think Parse's lead in this space ever evaporated. They went out as the best-in-class MBaaS.
But I would argue that most people who use Go, use it to write user-facing server apps, or at least server apps in which response time is an important metric. I don't know anybody who uses Go to primarily write batch jobs where throughput matters more than latency.

The body is complex. Energy in - energy out = weight lost its not.
Is there an ION vs. Thrift comparison?
T-SQL is Microsoft (and Sybase, from whom they bought it) specific implementation. I think you just mean "Standard SQL" everywhere you say "T-SQL".
Yes, we have looked at both Apache Avro and Thrift. The ION encoding is similar to these. Avro uses schemas, just like Protobuf, so it is not so easy to route for intermediate nodes. Thrift uses its own IDL schema language too.

Not really, it would be tedious, but idiomatic coffeescript can be converted to idiomatic javascript basically on a line-for-line basis. Also the compiler really does produce readable code (though unmistakeably computer-generated), so the process might even be sped by reducing it to just tidying up compiler output.

It's a task that could easily be spread across any number of human translators, too.

The main limiting factor is the quality of the test suite, which dictates how quickly typos could be found.

> Almost by definition it reduced misunderstanding

I disagree with the idea that adding more truthful information will necessarily reduce misunderstanding. It is very possible to say something which, while containing no falsehoods, does not tell the whole story and thereby increases misunderstanding. Note that, for instance, the oath sworn in an American courtroom is not only to tell the truth and nothing but the truth, but deliberately includes the phrase the whole truth

When Walmart calls your sales department, they aren't going to be suckered into a high price. On the contrary, they have a procurement department whose job is to negotiate the price down. They also probably have custom requirements that they want met, so a self-service option wouldn't even work for them.

Typically -- especially among "scalable" startups -- the "contact sales" option is meant specifically for these big fish to utilize, while the smaller fish get a self-service option with standardized pricing. This is what Sandstorm will have in the future.
Completely, no, but you can certainly safeguard. The One Laptop Per Child machines could take a reverse of positive and negative leads directly from a car battery and still be okay.

Just ask any competitive bodybuilder how to lose fat without losing much muscle and they will tell you about their "cut" diet, cycling, periodization, etc. Some of them (eg Ben Pakulski) work with scientists in fact, and go to ridiculous lengths in that regard. Except body builders drop carbs significantly and they always eat a ton of protein, cut or bulk. Of course steroids help to achieve and sustain single digit body fat percentages, but even without steroids you should see OK results if you're willing to put in the work in the gym.
