The parent comment was wild, inflammatory, and snarky, so it was a bad comment for HN—but still wasn't personally abusive. That is beside the point here though. The rules apply to you whether someone else broke them or not. If we all just point at others, this site is lost.
That and to get people into their ecosystem. Make a game that runs on their firestick and a user might stick around to use Amazon Prime and rent a movie or something.
> Why would the next generation want to take up that room?

Are you seriously asking why anyone would consider a career in which they are "only" able to keep 27% of any money above $10 million they make in a single year?

You're incredibly out of touch if you don't think most people would kill for that opportunity.

> Would you take up a career where despite long & expensive education, long hours, hard work, and lives-in-your-hands responsibility, you kept just 27% of your income?

Yes I would absolutely do that for the privilege of keeping only 27% of anything more than $10 million a year I make. This is an incredibly good problem to have.

> would you put in a million dollars of effort to net a quarter of that in return?

This is not how marginal tax rates work. Consider putting down Atlas Shrugged and consulting a remedial math textbook.
We're seeing the same consolidation that happens with any new industry.

There used to be a hundreds of automobile manufacturers, eventually that shrunk to the Big Three in the US.
I assume some of those organizations and experts are more equal than others.
Especially the ability to get access to, say, beer legally earlier means you can drink lower percentage things, be accepted in the social circle, and test your limits.
I guess we're talking past each other. You're of the impression that I'm going to try to circumvent them refusing to serve me content while I'm blocking ads. I'm not. I have no reason to. They have every right to refuse to let me view their content for any reason they choose, and I have every right to not run arbitrary scripts they serve me on my computer.

There is no war, because I'm not going to fight. I'm going to viciously restrict what runs on my system to protect my own security and privacy. If that makes some services or sites become unavailable to me, so be it.

Signal handlers are pretty much impossible to write directly in a managed language (at least without heavy contortions from the runtime), because you could get a signal during a non-GC-safe point and then deadlock or corrupt your program. For example, malloc often takes locks internally; if you get a signal during malloc with that lock held and then try to malloc in your signal handler you can deadlock. Managed languages like Go treat allocation as an implementation detail rather than something the programmer has to explicitly invoke, making them basically incompatible with signal handlers.

(BTW, this is mostly a problem with signal handlers as a concept, not with Go.)

> The problem with using the syscall module is that Go does not export Fork and Exec. It exports ForkExec, because it needs to ensure they run on the same thread.

And because you can't safely allocate after a fork in managed languages, because fork drops your other threads, leading to the same problems above. :)
> This isn't a SaaS platform opportunity. This is a "You have to pay a CPA and a Non-Profit Tax Attorney" situation to make sure you are on the right side of the law with the entire process from end to end.

For sure. It's definitely not a purely software oppirtunity.

I'm just looking at the situation and seeing something interesting: there are companies that have the money and the will to pay for FOSS projects, and there are FOSS projects that would benefit from the money, but due to their small scale they can't reasonably deal with all the hassle involved in becoming an entity that can take advantage of the mo ey companies are willing to spend. Maybe some kind of third party could centralize that hassle and make it super easy for FOSS projects to get some useful cash. I have no idea how that would be structured or even if the market is there or if the unit economics would make sense.
> But this is counting your chickens before they hatch. Make $250,000 first... Then advocate for tax cuts to that bracket.

So by that logic nobody living above the poverty line should ever advocate for policies that benefit those living below it.
There is lots of research which suggests that the USA is indeed lagging behind in STEM fields. K-12 does not prepare students well enough when compared to many Asian and European countries. The numerous research articles are a Google search away.

Another indicator is the lack of sufficient skilled workforce in STEM fields in the USA. This forces many tech companies to hire from abroad.

The shear between the material fact of people's lives and their perceived social standing has never been greater.

Steinbeck and people of his era had the gentle and naif conceit that something can be done about this. We DID many of those things, and this is the result.

The behavior of our Corporate Overlords is one millionth of the behavior of each of us.

I suspect we do this to ourselves.
The key question is "will their be in 2017"; there is an election for 100% of the House and 1/3 of the Senate at the same time as the Presidential election, and the policy proposals of the Presidential nominees of the various parties are likely to be salient issues in each of those elections.
"Oh well, there goes another outlet. They can all do this, I don't care. Just won't read their content. Eventually there won't be any good non-paywalled content left, and I'll just figure something else out."

It reeks of desperation on their part - no good options left for their business or their business model.

That being said, while I will not miss wired.com at all, I will miss a site like arstechnica and would hate to think they are in the same boat ...

Presumably, given the even higher level of technical acumen among their readers, ars might be in an even worse situation.
Thanks, this is helpful. I'm not sure yet how involved I want to be. Can you give an example of the kind of custom stuff you can do in Woocommerce that wouldn't be possible in Shopify?
Not as well. But then, I doubt I'd do as well on the old SAT either. It's been a while since I've isolated y or found the zeroes of a function.

But seriously, I really wouldn't do as well. I was a scantron-taking machine back in high school, and I aced the SATs because it was exactly what I was used to. This new one, in my opinion, gives much more objective results.

\*edit: nevermind, I got 5/5 in just a few minutes. Guess I'm not as rusty as I thought, and this test only has easy algebra.
Eh, this is just crap. I know many people who use IE just because they do not care about the browser. They use it occasionally to look something up and then move on and do the work they need to do. Also, staying in longer doesn't mean anything either. I leave at 4 pm and I still do more work than >80% of my coworkers.

It may be that there is a correlation between productivity and browser choice, but I doubt that the causation is as simple as posited in TFA.

Edit: it seems that the article says staying in a particular job longer and not staying in office longer during the day.
So young, does anyone know why? Maybe that's a morbid question, and I am sorry for everyone's loss.
"Something which looks like Twitter, great for new users coming over from Twitter"
Can anyone explain why this would not work:

1. Modify the license for django to stipulate that companies using the software must display a highly visible 'powered by the free version of Django' badge on their website.
2. Allow that notice to be removed for x per year.

I get that it's a complex legal and accounting question and I must be missing something.
I think GNU Social should be pretty scalable, and that's because it's not a centralized paradigm with all users in one titanic database. Currently I'm running my own instance (one user on the server) and then federating with the rest, so that kind of setup should be scalable to the size of the web.

On most platforms getting Django to run is as simple as:

> pip install django
> django-admin startproject myproject
> cd myproject
> python manage.py runserver

1.4 (2012) made it a lot easier to get started with Django.

Also Django isn't a CMS, if you're expecting it to be like Wordpress, Drupal, etc; it is not going to fill your need (although you might want to try Django-CMS)
This game would actually make for a great assessment test[1] for hiring. I might be interesting to retrofit it to keep score or maybe perma death ala roguelike.

Efficient data structures for PHP 7
Hello! I have been writing Django for more than 3 years now and I think I qualify to give a counterpoint. First, I would agree that Django's documentation could be more beginner friendly. But you know providing excellent cutting edge tool and providing excellent documentation is a very difficult task and it does require some more love.

Django as a framework is very different form traditional CMSes like wordpress, Drupal etc. It is mostly meant to write scalable web services with great speed and has batteries included for example a good ORM, migration assistant, good admin etc.

If CMS is your usecase, you should have tried Django CMS(it is built on top of Django and support great features. (http://www.django-cms.org/en/)

I think you need to understand that every framework or library in the world requires you to read the documentation. There is not shortcut.

However, Django CMS also comes up with a very nice installer(http://docs.django-cms.org/en/develop/introduction/install.h...). It automates almost everything. Whenever you change your model, you generate migrations and run it.
python manage.py makemigrations
python manage.py migrate

I think coming from other framework/language, just be a little patient and give it another try. If you still feel any issues, feel free to jump in the IRC (#django, #django-cms) and ask your questions. The community is nice and kind enough and you will probably never hit a roadblock.
C# is a perfectly reasonable choice for a phone game that can afford garbage collection pauses. This means turn-based.

In every other case, you're better off using a language whose resource management model doesn't fight you.

Swift is the best of both worlds in this regard.

"But my program is prohibitively expensive"

Why? Just curious if there's any brainstorming to be done.

Also expensive relative to what? Some people think Kumon is expensive. My kids did it for a couple years. Its about $100/month. Its very popular among immigrants who make a whole lot less money than I do. Of course Kumon isn't "real" math because its very drill -n- kill (which is why we quit, more or less)
10 US states have parental consent exceptions for service in a bar or restaurant:

A good deal more let parents give their kids a drink at home.

I guess social attitudes contribute at least as much to college age binge drinking as legal regimes.

"Life is normal at the early stage," said Ganesan. "But late stage people are very cautious."

This is what I've been predicting. Seed and early stage has always been astronomically high risk, and so that's more likely to be priced in. I think we'll see a small pull-back there but nothing too serious, and it might be totally offset by the opening of equity crowdfunding (which I have mixed feelings about but it's a thing).

I think this is the end of the "unicorn." The thing that's going to dry up is peoples' appetites for companies that are post-A and still don't have a good revenue picture or have their feet under them at all. By the end of an A runway there should be some sign of liftoff before people are going to be willing to shell out more. There's also going to be a lot less tolerance for drunken money spending unless revenue growth is really good.

Investors are going to start looking at bang/buck ratio instead of just bang. It's easy to make a lot of noise and look big when you have $100m+ in the bank. I think the worst of the unicorns are companies that are mostly built to market themselves to investors more than customers and to chase cheap investor money. Those are dead.

I personally think the unicorn bust might actually be good for bootstrapped or less lavishly funded companies. It's hard and very demoralizing to have to compete with SV insider companies running on seemingly endless fountains of VC cash. Those companies can just run you over with sheer brute force and lose money doing it and not care.

> Can you really tell before you actually get proper feedback [...]

Probably not. But even if you built a feature that's not well received it's important to remove it again. I've seen plenty of projects that carry tons of mostly unused features (or better called technical dept at that point) with them.
actually, really DO care about containers.

What I'm caring less and less about is MSFT. The feeling is mutual- they just really don't give a fuck about you if you're doing anything but using Azure though.

I'm finding that I need them less and less.
Yes. Free college would be a good start. Stopping over policing of black/brown neighborhoods would be another. Basically anything that actively seeks to break the cycle started with slavery and continued through Jim Crow. Occupying black/brown neighborhoods and using jay walking as a pretext to throw as many in jail as possible needs to stop - immediately.
Wow, this hits me like a punch to the stomach. I worked with bushing on a number of projects over the years, and I've rarely met a nicer, smarter hacker. He'll be missed greatly.

It says natural causes, so I feel that's enough to remove fears of anything self inflicted.

Option 1) is not feasible though, as you'll block your one thread.

Though I wonder if you can work around all this by using signalfd (http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man2/signalfd.2.html) and have SIGCHLD delivered through normal file descriptors - I don't know the low levels of Go enough to know if you can integrate a raw file descriptor with its runtime, or whether messing with SIGCHLD causes other issues, but it might be worth pursuing.

> If a user can't figure out how to navigate through an app in a reasonable amount of time without a great deal of existing knowledge

Having watched kids, teens, and 20-somethings, I've concluded that "a reasonable amount of time" to them is something on the order of 5 seconds on the outside. On a PC, they might look around and thoughtfully click on things. On a tablet or phone app, they just mash their fingers for about 3 seconds, then if they haven't seen something, move on.

This even extends to 20-somethings and game controllers. I've seen 20-somethings walk up to an 80's emulated arcade game, waggle the sticks on a controller for 2 seconds, not understand why the screen was shaking, then walk away.
The debate on dynamic vs strong is more important than testing vs no testing.
As a parent, if my child came to me and told me this story, I'd have trouble not calling him a n00b and making fun of him. I wouldn't, but I would explain to him that he deserved to be ripped off for trusting strangers online. Your parents shouldn't be able to fix everything for you. I don't think you're parents should have done anything.

You learned a valuable life lesson. If anything getting ripped off online and learning this lesson was safer than getting ripped off in a dark alley over some magic beans.

If they had done something, what would you have learned? If I cry hard enough, everything gets fixed? That leads to uselessness.

You are far off-base when you say "apparently just fine". But making the thread still more uncivil is obviously the wrong thing to do. Better things include: (1) make an accurate, respectful reply—though in this case it would have probably blown things further off-topic; (2) flag the comment; (3) email us at hn@ycombinator.com.

If you can find the will to do so, the very best thing is to be charitable. In this case that might mean remembering that the commenter has likely only heard one heavily politicized side of the story, and has been conditioned by such one-sided information to reflexively associate one thing with another. Then you might respond in a way that confounds their expectation in a positive, surprising manner, instead of getting angry and defensive, which can only reinforce it.

Admittedly that's hard to do and never something one must do. But it is likely the most effective thing to do. When one person responds from a conditioned reflex but another has the presence not to do so, that's how things get unstuck.

The demographics of HN are so unevenly distributed that it's impossible for the discourse here to be objective about many topics, but we can and do at least control for basic respect, and if you watch closely you'll notice that we care about that, and act on it, a lot.
Absolutely this. I've enjoyed JavaScript the past few years. (Dare I admit that). And the only light I see is something like Elixir that has a fundamentally superior foundation for scale and concurrency. I'm intrigued and am hoping elixir / erlang / Phoenix keep growing.

If running a non-default browser is a sign of career success, then running a non-default operating system must be a sign of even greater success.

Of course running a non-default version of an operating system should probably increase success rates even more, then there's the windows manager and text editor you use, to include in the calculation.

Considering when the "shakedown" laws were written the power structure was exclusively white I disagree with your premise. White men shaking down "whitey" to no benefit of the lawmakers doesn't really hold water. Try again.
Yes, but if you see my edit, even with GOMAXPROCS=1, you are still constrained to the syscall.ForkExec API, which severely limits the usefulness of an init program. Its entire purpose is to start processes in different states (i.e. with different UID, etc.)

Not sure what you mean by 2). If you're suggesting polling, then that sucks, because one important feature of an init system is to restart processes immediately.

All in all my point is that Go is a very poor language for this... worse than Python (which I also tried and ended up using). I think it's great that the author is experimenting though -- I think that's the only way to make these issues clear.

I understand how a fencing token can prevent out of order writes when 2 clients get the same lock. But what happens when those writes happen to arrive in order and you are doing a value modification?

I operate a SaaS that is based around Google Analytics Dashboarding (http://www.embeddedanalytics.com). I have never had success with Google Adwords, very low conversion rate to signups (<2%). Traffic coming from referral sites (mostly stackoverflow.com) is much better.
Technically? Sort of. Practically? Also sort of, but a little less so.

Technically speaking these bills originate in Congress. For financial matters, specifically the House. But the President does have veto power, so has a voice in the process.

Practically speaking, the President does a lot to set the tone. It's the only nationally elected position (even if elected a little weirdly). See "bully pulpit".
