Windows for Workgroups 3.11 had their Netbios network protocol support + drivers but you needed additional packages for TCP/IP. At that point most of the games used IPX protocol so you needed another DOS network stack like Novell's for gaming. If my memory serves my right, Duke Nukem 3D had Netbios support but all the other games (Doom, Descent, Warcraft 2 etc) used IPX.
We have a working networked version of Windows 3.1 that runs in this environment, but let's do one thing at a time.

Sitting down is comfortable, when you're comfortable you don't press on time to just give a quick overview of what you're working with, problems with that and what you plan to do. That's just team coordination done quickly.

It tells probably a lot more about your own psychology seeing standing up as a "confrontation". I'm really not meaning to be rude but that strikes as something you might want to talk to a professional about.

You might want to modify the title of this post. I saw you mention configuring NGINX and got very interested - but if it's Apache only I don't care nearly as much...

Having said that - will the configurator also handle optimisation of the Apache setup for your particular server? That'd be a great feature to save tedious manual optimisation.

Telegrams are in writing in a way phones aren't, so they were necessary for e.g. legal notices at least up until the invention of the fax. In India they're still widely used for this reason. Ironically (given the article) people also see them as more formal than a phone call, so in some countries they're traditional for e.g. wedding congratulations.

Ask HN: Doing cold emails? helps us prove this concept for closing more leads
Hey guys,

It all starts from this, the problem:
1) prospects lose interest/engagement over email
2) people want quick answers

One solution is phone calls, but as you know, those are so hard to get.

Our idea/concept to solve this is to let people switch from email to private live-chat by clicking a chat link in the email and sending them to a chat page, because:

1)It's much easier to get prospects on live chat than phone. From there you can escalate to a call easier.

2)You can give answers and deal with objections in real time

3)You can close or qualify leads on the spot, instead waiting for 5 back and forth emails

We already have a few guys getting very promising results, but we need more users to get the statistical significance faster.

a) What do you think about this concept?
b) What stops you from using this on your business?

Thanks a lot

Any information on the 4-wheel drive system? Is it an electronic limited slip differential or does it have actual differential locks (rear and maybe front)?
With tests, there's also the idea that writing them helps you write better code.

That's something that doesn't happen automatically. If you approach tests as something you have to do because somebody told you to, and I think this is pretty common, then your tests are probably not going to be great, and it's not going to help your code...

But if a team really takes to heart the whole principle of testing, and start to design things with testing in mind... then they start to ask questions up front like "how will we really know that this works?" and "how can we isolate this component so that we can test it independently?" and "how can we write fast tests for this?" and "can we make this into more of a pure, simple data structure?" and so on and so on.

Especially this one: "How can we get the important business logic here to be a clear and distinct module with verifiable correctness?"

And that's a cascade of wonderful benefits. Enforcing a culture of "you must write tests" might possibly help with QA, especially in the more obvious cases of algorithmic correctness, but the true benefits are so much deeper.

exercise + meditation one hour for two days per week --> 40% reduction in symptoms of major depressive disorder.

To me the results sound a bit too staggering but the most interesting idea is that the researchers believe that exercise + meditation have an additive effect. So meditation or exercise alone is less effective than doing meditation first (breathing meditation, they didn't body scan) and then exercise right after it (running). In my humble opinion, that's an idea worth considering and that's an idea worth implementing in the company's culture. Provided that this study replicates well and is actually true ;)

Sam Altman suggested in Startup School to "fix it" (w.r.t. burnout) because when doing a startup you don't have the luxury of taking time off. This is a way of how to fix it, and if you don't have the luxury to take an hour off to boost productivity, then there's an uneven trade going on (more hours working for less productivity). It's not a silver bullet unfortunately, but then again what is?

I wrote a really long thing supposed to help but it ended a bit self indulgent.

Short version: I failed my "high school exams" after coasting for so long I didn't know how to learn. I became afraid of trying in case I failed. So I didn't try and embraced failure. Worked as a chef for long hours and little money.

It's abandoned radio station in Brovary, Ukraine, I've been there several times. There were two antennas — 180 m and 270 m with 100 and 150 kwt transmitters (later up to 250 kwt). Until 1988 they were used for radio jamming (BBC, Voice of America, Deutsche Welle), later for radio broadcasting [1]

AFAIK you could get serious burns [2][3] even when antenna was not powered any more. In this case it works just like huge receiving antenna, getting kilowatts of RF energy directly from atmosphere. Before the thunderstorm ropes holding the antenna literally glowed due to corona discharge effect.

A few years ago both antennas were demolished [4][5]

Probably because in every other industry this would have been seen as anti-competitive behaviour.

My brother's a smart kid too. He ended up getting the lowest grades in living memory at our school, totally bombed high school.

Now he's finishing a CS degree at Columbia.

Going over it, he told me he never saw me study anything. I went off to Oxford before him, and he figured he'd do what I did. (What he didn't see was my late night homework sessions.) Only after many years did he get his act together.

Learning is really only about effort. You get a lot of people pretending it's easy so they can get that "smart" label, even through college. Don't let them fool you. Remember there's nothing at all, all the way through college, that isn't public knowledge that you can acquire just by reading and trying for yourself.

Not really, since nobody prevented any company from coming up with even faster speeds / bigger transistor counts.

Not sure which industry would consider ... exponential improvements as "anti-competitive". More likely they would kill to be able to have them too.

I think it's more likely that software development practices will change to recover a lot of the speed that's been lost. Not dramatically - certainly not a new architecture - but in lots of little ways.

There's a lot of low-hanging performance fruit in programming language design, compiler implementation, technology choice, and application design. For the most part, nobody takes it because it doesn't make economic sense. With Moore's Law, just wait a couple years and your shitty implementation is good enough.

It's possible for a skilled engineer to write code that is much more efficient. You have to compromise in other ways, like developer time or feature set. Up till now, those compromises have not been worth it, because somebody will beat you to market and make you irrelevant. In a world where "fast as an initial prototype" is not "fast enough", however, you could see firms actually start to compete on performance.

I predict that even without hardware changes, we'll see a bit of a maturation of the software industry, where people look at what folks actually do with their computers and then work to make that actually perform well. Possibly not for a few years, though.
