Youth is wasted on the young.

I've loved video games since I was about 7. I've made a good living off of video games.

In my thirties, I never once thought "Man, I wish I'd spent more time playing video games in my twenties."

Now, as I turn 40, I wonder how different my life would have been if I'd spent more time doing other things, instead of playing video games.

The process of aging is impossible to convey fully, but it's fascinating to be on the other side, having lived the transition.
Slack is a convenient messaging platform, even though there's nothing particularly innovative about it. It's essentially a web-based IRC client with a few obvious enhancements (object embedding, built-in cross-channel search, etc.).

Slack is one of the most popular things to clone now that people realize that businesses will use an IRC clone if it's packaged correctly, so I wouldn't go putting all your eggs in the basket of Slack's longevity as a company.
apt-get. It was painless, and I have the diskspace so not a big deal. Looking at package properties I see it recommends a bunch of packages, so it installed those and their deps (this is Ubuntu 15.10):

hey guys I hope to offer some words of comfort.

The delusion is that life is infinite. It is not.

Especially so when we are young. As we get older, we feel like we are running out of time, we haven't done enough.

This is why I think some people commit suicide when their startups dont take off. They can't accept a reality that everything they are doing is ephemeral.

So when your startup fails, or some software you worked on for 4 years without any pay goes to shit because you couldn't get enough customers, brush this shit off because life and universe is ephemeral and even more so ephmeral are the failures to meet your own expectations and others. So what? Failing at startup isn't a fucking crime? There's no Russian mob coming to reclaim the "equity" that you owe them. Similarly if you succeed, the world just goes on. You might get cover, you might serve as inspiration, you will have changed your life and everything money can buy. But I think that in the end, if you think about it, money is important but not the entirety of our human existence.

At age 29, having boostrapped to failure for the past 6 years, I'm no longer hung up about it. Now this might sound like the fox claiming that the grape is sour because he can't reach it, but money, a single fixation on success or a particular product that you built (and you fall in love with your own creation), is unhealthy and frankly a waste of pure fucking energy.

This is why I've given up on chasing one idea or marrying myself to one goal. I'm also slowly turning my back away from bootstrapping and focusing on how I can raise money. The only painful realization is that I could've done 6 years of work in just 6 months with 6 engineers. Now that I've done the entire shit myself from the ground up, I have a pretty fucking good idea how to build something from scratch and turn it into a product. Startup is not a one man game, it's really coming together, sharing the pain and growing as individuals and as a group. Success should be the goal but I believe the process is equally important in getting to that goal. I may not ever reach it and that's fine. What's important is that I've tried the best I absolutely can and being proud of what I've built. That's all you can do and just walk away and keep going.

And don't get caught up with trends, noise, techcrunch and other non-essential activities that adds to the anxiety. Just do you.

Remember that life is ephemeral. Suicide is a permanent approach at a temporary problem! This failure, the stress, the depression, the mania, all this, even the lack of money...all of this is just temporary. Nothing lasts forever.

It's not uncommon for mild depressive symptoms to resolve with exercise. In fact, it's rare for exercise to not be helpful in depression.

But where most commenters go off the rails is in assuming that other people's depression is equivalent to what they experienced in the past, which couldn't be farther from the truth. If exercise produces a mild improvement for you and your symptoms were mild to begin with, you'll likely approach remission, which is awesome. But if your depression is moderate or severe, then intense exercise may only move you from "really miserable" to "still kind of miserable". Again, not arguing that exercise shouldn't be encouraged, but it's critical to remember that your depression experiences are not equivalent to others' depression.
Some crotchety old timers might argue that point.

Yes, you can always rewrite parts of a monolith, what I am saying is that it is just way easier to do with the hard-boundaries and well-defined interface contracts of microservices. You know that as long as you live up to the interface contracts, any changes you make to the microservice app cannot adversely affect other microservices. Just think about how much of software development patterns and best practices are devoted to creating proper encapsulation and avoiding tight coupling; All of that is simply built-in when you use microservics.

Yes, of course if you have great test coverage making changes to a monolith can be easier, but good test coverage and debt-riddled don't often apply to the same codebase! Lets be honest, if you are happy with your monolith codebase then there is no reason to rewrite for microservices. It is for those projects that you are not happy with the monolith code, where maintenance of the code IS scary, that the conversion makes sense.
Just to make clear, most teens are NOT this active. Being one and being that most of my friends are still in high school, I'd estimate 1 in 10 are as active as this girl is with snapchat. As far as texting goes, yeah about 1 out of 2 are constantly texting including myself, but it's all to fight boredom. Boredom in school, boredom watching TV. It's like ADD but everyone has it.

But for snapchat, most people are in the 20,000-40,000 range, with some up to 200,000 and some down to 2,000, haven't seen any above or below that.

Just did `brew update && brew upgrade` but not seeing an htop update. I am still running htop 0.8.2.8 via brew.

People Tracking: How Mickey Mouse Does It Right
"Parents don’t understand. It’s about being there in the moment."

In WHAT moment? That moment when someone snapchats a snapchat for the sake of snapchatting?

Hey, I have a 14yo son who texts like a maniac and never takes his earbuds out of his ears. He has hundreds of thousands of views on his G+ profile, which is the thing him and his friends are all over. But lately they've moved to Facebook because they follow their favorite Bands' pages.

It's so confusing.

If our parents wanted to know what was going on in our lives, they quietly picked up the other phone on the land-line in the house and eavesdropped.

Now, we have to snoop and lurk on our kids' social profiles, or try to sneak a peak at their texts when their phones buzz.
I like the "mob programming" concept because it offers a potential win-win here. Not that I've tried it yet... but it doubles down on what works with pairing and acts to diffuse the stress.

No.

If for example you wanted to discuss The Selfish Gene by Richard Dawkins, the first step would not be to "not use the ideas described within (e.g. genetics and biology research)". Ignoring the topics within and attacking the author for what he later wrote about Atheism or how he behaved in interviews would a mindblowingly terrible way to critique his book about biology.

When discussing or critiquing an essay, the first step is to actually address the ideas inside of it. Attacking the character of its author or other things they may have said about unrelated topics is not a rational substitute.

In this case, geofft's comment is flawed on multiple levels. Aside from making a purely ad hominem argument against the 2008 essay How to Disagree, its specific attack was the author's twitter usage that occurred more than five years later.
I applaud what sic-hub is doing, but am curious why doesn't Elsevier simply block the IPs that sci-hub is using.

I'm not familiar with MSVC, but when I tried this example:

#include <stdio.h>

void bar(int n, const char *p[]) {
for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
printf("%s\t", p[i]);
}
putchar('\n');
}

#define bar(...) (bar( \
sizeof((const char*[]) { NULL, __VA_ARGS__ }) / sizeof(const char*) - 1, \
(const char*[]) { NULL, __VA_ARGS__ } + 1))

int main(/* int argc, char **argv */) {
bar();
bar("a");
bar("a", "b");
bar("a", "b", "c");
return 0;
}

Using the online MSVC compiler at http://webcompiler.cloudapp.net/ (which runs Visual C++ 19.00.23720.0), it failed with these error message:

Your statements don't only apply to the tech crowd; I feel as though what you just said could easily be pasted across the web to provide a huge amount of help to anyone suffering from symptoms of mental illness. I am no expert, but this certainly helped my understanding of the issue a great deal, and I'm sure it would for others as well.
I find the stigma might be something to embrace in a non-emergency. While employers should absolutely keep an open-door and a supportive policy to these kind of issues, your friends and co-workers are not your psychiatrist or other mental health professional. Telling a depressed person that they should go home and relax with a stiff drink seems like a unreasonable thing to say, it has only become so (relatively) recently.

I will also mention that some people have boundary issues due to various conditions and a employer/employee relationship can not support a healthy recovery. Similar to how some psychiatrists don't take their patients out socially.

I mention all this as I hope that it makes it your choice to not share and not a onus to stay perfect all the time.
Thank you :) Glad to know it helps more than just me.
I don't think the knowing-what-your–kids-are-up-to part is that much different, at least for me. If my parents had wanted to snoop on my social life in high school, they would've had to figure out how to dial up BBSs, which they didn't really have any understanding of. Granted, Snapchat has a much bigger userbase than BBSs did.
I don't use Snapchat a lot but the idea is that you can share a moment with the people you have on it without expecting an answer because it's showed if they checked it or not.

An sms/mms appear in the form of a chat and you are like compelled to answer, at least to tell them that you got it.
Ack, my bad. I meant OS X 10.11 (El Capitan). Same should probably work on any Linux distro with standard build tools installed.

I keep a ~/local directory with built-from-source programs in it. That way I don't get any conflicts with system-wide package managers.

Configure line for ncurses:

./configure --enable-pc-files --with-pkg-config-libdir=$HOME/local/lib/pkgconfig --with-shared --prefix=$HOME/local
make -j8 && make install

And for htop, a regular configure worked fine:

./configure --prefix=$HOME/local
make -j8 && make install

A quick check in my .bashrc (actually .zshrc) prepends $HOME/local/bin to my $PATH if it exists.
I'd recommend making your pricing model simply per GB and then on a rate tier, don't play games with your customers. The quota system ends being a game, and simply ends up wasting management's time trying to ensure the company isn't either getting charged for overages or not using up the quote they have. I'd quite frankly not recommend companies like Sumologic solely based on the massive amounts of time they waste with these things.
Is there anything in the actual essay you disagreed with?

To answer your question, first of all name calling and attacking the people instead of the ideas makes for a nasty and unproductive conversation—basically like youtube comment discussion.

Secondly you're on the site he built. The guidelines clearly say, "When disagreeing, please reply to the argument instead of calling names." If you dislike the guidelines or feel that they are "terribly condescending", then maybe this isn't the ideal site for what you want.
You project for as long as you can, but eventually you have use the growth model at the very end. Even before you get to that point you have project a growth model. So year 1 is 1.2A year 2 is 1.2^2A etc. So the growth rate is pretty important in creating valuation.

Ask HN: How do you price for free lunches and dinners at the workplace?
When evaluating competing job offers, how do you evaluate perks like free lunch/dinner or a well stocked cabinet? The basic way of doing this would probably be $20 for lunch X 5 days a week X 4 weeks a year X 12 months = ~ 5k | Throw in dinner and its ~10k.

Anyone else have a better method?

Nice selective quoting there. You have no intellectual honesty at all. Just for the record, I was very specific about the magnitude and nature of the coming crisis in the post I linked (and that you apparently read, but omitted parts that didn't fit your little narrative). This is my comment from 160 days ago:

"Mark my words: the economic depression that will occur in the next 5 years will be started by bubbles popping in residential property markets (China's first, most likely). Consequently, we'll be looking at financial system collapse when this is transmitted to banks via insolvent residential property speculators (to whom they've loaned significant amounts of money). This ain't going to be pretty...

On the hopeful side, countries like the US, Ireland and Iceland who 'took their medicine' during the GFC (sustained heavy property price declines or significant bank collapses), will be closer to fundamental values already. So they may have less distance to fall, even though there will probably be some overshoot. Also, OPEC flooding the world market with oil (to try and kill the US shale oil industry in the crib) and the likelihood that China will run down its foreign currency reserves to pay for stimulus (depreciating the US dollar) will mean US export industries (excluding oil and natural gas) become very competitive indeed.

Countries like China, Australia, Canada and the UK on the other hand, who staved off significant property market corrections during the GFC (especially Australia), are in for a very bad time (http://www.economist.com/blogs/dailychart/2011/11/global-hou...). Like worse than 1920s depression bad time (closer to 1890s depression)."

So: enormous crisis, china run down fx reserves, crisis will originate from distorted chinese property market driven by speculative bubble popping.

Here are a few news articles, some from just today:

And this is where I bow out. I'm done trying to reason with the unreasonable.

Your comment is very reasonable but I've found that celebrity or wits or intelligence hardly correlates to interesting Twitter stream. Basically, most people who tweet are a waste of time to read. Even at 140 characters at a time.

It's surprisingly hard to find people who consistently say interesting things in such a restricted space.

Overall, I've decided it was so hard that it just wasn't worth my time, so I no longer read Twitter at all.

Obviously, your mileage may vary.
