I don't think you properly understood the article or FOSS in general. It is not about protecting a "sacred cow", it is about protecting the principles without which there will be no FOSS in the first place.

We FOSS devs rightly care less about market share because market share is not, and never has been, what sustains the FOSS ecosystem. What sustains it is the code content that attracts developers from all over the globe to look at it, learn from it, be interested and inspired by it, and the principles of freedom enables them to contribute to it and sustain this cycle.

In our case, we use the pure-js version during development.

Some windows developers have issues compiling native modules, and it was easier to try the native plugin, if it fails fallback to the pure-js version with an identical API during development. That way we get the ease of development with pure-js, and the production speed of the native module.

Also there is the ability to run client side (mesh networks with webRTC), and the ability to run this on architectures other than x86 where the native version won't compile.

I strongly recommend "Buddhism Plain & Simple" by Steve Hagen. It's much more meditation / awareness than Buddhist practice, so don't worry much about the title. I also really enjoyed "10% Happier" which was way more of a practical story vs. instruction manual. In general, meditation is NOT about "not thinking" - a major misconception about the practice. It's always helped me to view it less as a "mental getaway" and more as "training my mind like a muscle."

The practice, btw, is the whole point, it's not a means to getting to "the real part." That's a difficult point for some to grasp. Every time you sit and your mind wanders, that's the practice right there. This might be the most accurate image of what meditation is: http://www.highexistence.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/medi...

Where to find some .onion marketplace urls
Hi everyone,

While I have a decent idea of how Tor generally works, I've never used the service very much in terms of surfing around .onion websites.

I'm currently in need of finding and have a look at some .onion marketplaces/ecommerce-sites (weapons is my main interest, but I imagine most marketplaces do have multiple categories).

Since the visibility problem is especially true for this - pretty volatile - kind of sites, I was wondering if there were some 'must-know' link aggregators for these kinds of sites.

A 'backpage of the internet' maybe? :)

If that's not the case then I assume the first google results are good enough for the general weapon buyer.

Thanks!
Love it. I knew where you were going right off the bat, but your writing made me read through it. Now I feel like a secret agent. I'm not sure why.

Why Design Is the Ultimate Way to Increase Profit
Wait, what? So you up for "Price Fixing?"

> " So the reason why price-fixing is illegal, and also unethical, is not that it hurts consumers. The key reason is that it violates one of the basic requirements for markets to work efficiently. In order for markets to function with anything approaching efficiency — never mind fairness — several conditions must obtain: for starters, there must be sufficient information in the hands of both buyer and seller, and the costs of transactions must be borne by the participants, rather than spilling over onto bystanders. But most important for the present case, markets can only be efficient if buyers have real options — that is, if no seller has the power to bully the market. Behavior aimed at letting one seller, or a group of sellers, bully the market is contrary to the requirements of efficient markets." http://businessethicsblog.com/2013/06/07/price-fixing-not-ju...

At least on three counts - in user agents, in crawlers and in RFC:

- I definitely see bad design in interpreting the RFC as "if no caching metadata, then cache forever;" this violates Principle of Least Astonishment.

- Also, "301 and 302 has completely different meaning to a crawler" seems illogical.

- Perhaps the RFC should have also specified something like "in absence of caching headers, don't assume 'cache forever', that is a long time"; it does not try too much to prevent implementors from shooting themselves (and users) in the feet.
> slave trade

Sure, but it's not extremely relevant to the whole era covered by the game. From Wikipedia:

> It is estimated that more than half of the entire slave trade took place during the 18th century, with the British, Portuguese and French being the main carriers of nine out of ten slaves abducted in Africa.[42] By the 1690s, the English were shipping the most slaves from West Africa.[43] They maintained this position during the 18th century, becoming the biggest shippers of slaves across the Atlantic.[44]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlantic_slave_trade#16th.2C_1...

While slave trade started early, it was still minor in the early stage of colonies. But you are right, the game completely ignores slave trade even in the 18th century, while it technically should not be ignored. But it's an American game, and it would never have been published if it "featured" slave trade in its mechanics.

Having no high denomination bills is also very problematic.

I witnessed it firsthand in Argentina until very recently, and in Venezuela and other hyper-inflation countries it's still a huge burden.

Translated quote: "Not having higher denomination bills leads to very high costs in transportation and storage because of the large volumes handled and because bills don't fit in small safes."

Other curious facts: Singapore has a 10.000 dollar bill (U$ 7.500), and Switzerland has a 1000 CHF bill (U$ 1070).

However, the Singapore bill won't be printed anymore, for the same issues (money laundering concerns).

Analytics – you can still use the Parse analytics until January 28th, 2017 or migrate to some Parse suggested alternative: Mixpanel or Google Analytics

SDK – You can still continue to use the parse SDKs. We and the open source community will continue improving it.

Dashboard – For now you can continue using the Parse dashboard to update/evolute your backend. The back{4}app Dashboard supporting Parse is on our roadmap and will be released soon;

Push – back{4}app already supports Parse push;

Hi,

So first I would have a direct conversation about hours per week he is willing and able to spend on the project. If that number is "2", then you're probably going to need to replace him, and maybe try to get some shares back (or get him to give some shares to his replacement).

If he's willing to give some real hours, look at how you're tracking his work & efforts. Do you have a trello board (or any easy alternative) for tracking what needs to get done? Ensure that it's trivial to discover what the highest impact piece of work is.

How does he work, does he need a better development/testing environment to try out new things? Is he wasting time when he gets started because he needs to recreate his environment on AWS every time as it's destroyed to save money? Look for ways to reduce the friction in getting started, so 30 minutes waiting for food to arrive can be used productively, not just "getting started"
Do you have a vesting clause in your founder's agreement?
When I first came across the Heaviside function, I actually thought it was named as such due to its heavy side. It was only about a year later, that I realized -- "Why would they spell Heavy wrong? I need to Google this..." and found out about Oliver Heaviside
PG had a good quote (paraphrasing) that when a co-founder has less than 50% of the company one has to ask why you'd pick someone who doesn't bring as much to the table as you do.

As andriesm says, a constructive discussion is in order.

Looking at this analytically though if your partner has only 20% of the business (and assuming no other financial recompense) I think you can only expect a proportional number of hours to yours.

Partnerships are hard work and at this stage a separation (if necessary) gets harder the longer you leave it. Just be aware of the consequences to your company should you two decide to part ways.

I agree with the idea of having a
frank discussion with the co-founder but with respect to motivation I'm not sure it's going to be simple to get to the source of the true reason. Motivation is why I struggle with finding cofounders. I have a number of good friends who I know well, even went to school with, some of them are programmers just like I am. However they can't be cofounders because they're too happy with their lives to be motivated enough to work like I do. We have similar lives, they're just very content with the status quo, I'm not. It may be that this person could offer more shares and still get no more time out of the person, this is such a difficult problem to solve.

I'm curious. $99/TB seems like an incredibly high price to charge for a CDN that only has 10 points of presence globally.

Maybe this is typical with 'website accelerators' as opposed to CDNs that focus on caching truly static content, but even so features like dynamic acceleration and global caching are par for the course with any traditional CDN.

Cloudflare, which I use mind you, is non-traditional and their business model seems more suited to DDoS prevention and edge SSL than anything else.

So what sets NeuvoCloud apart?
If you get an audio guide you can essentially start right away. If you have a streaming service, search for 'mindfulness'. On Google play there is one from Oxford. They used to have several albums from Kabatt-Zinn but they seem to have disappeared. I would recommend those. In any case, make sure to purchase so you are not interrupted by ads.

If you want to do a bit of research there is a YouTube video of a Kabatt-Zinn talk at Google where he leads a short session.
FWIW in past I just emailed them asking for clarification about whether I needed a commercial license with my specific use case and they responded quickly and straightforwardly.

In the unfolding of this agenda, when they invariably claim only criminals use these notes, remember what they mean by "criminal". It is anyone who holds wealth outside of the mainstream financial system where they, the government and banks, could confiscate it with negative interest rates.

Negative interest rates will never "work" without also having capital controls.

The previous Prime Minister of Australia is on record as saying that coal is good for humanity.

* If you can pay for the shares do it.

* If you can't, just motivate him nicely if possible.

* If you can't do that too, just ignore him since 50 hours yearly separated is almost nothing.
In case you want to try to continue working with him... Try to find out what he is actually really good at and what he really likes to do. It's obviously not devops? I would guess that the "forgetting" is just a way to cope with the stress and I guess you need to solve the reason for it. Maybe he's interested in doing sales or design or...?!

Not sure what kind of relationship you have to him. But I can guarantee you that it will suck after you "fired" him.
Why not just redirect back from the new to the old URL? A sane client should then check if the old 301 is still there (not sure if by the spec, but it is common sense). I believe I once tried this and it worked with Firefox. Not sure, though.
You don't have to pay for elementary - you just have to put in '0' as the amount you're paying.

Recently I tried a bunch of Linux flavours, and it still pissed me off. No other distro forced me to do that.

Elementary claim making software takes effort, but how much are they contributing upstream - to Debian or to the kernel creators?

In the end, I ended up with Mint, which has a better UX anyway imo.

sexist article is sexist.

How can an "article" that is effectively about eldercare go out of its way to disregard the fact that men have parents too... Do they think we simply "...just spring out of holes in the ground"? and that we don't care for our parents too?

Generalization is a two-way mirror.

They DO mention the idea that women have gasp choices, however they simply gloss over it, disregarding the idea.

He only has 20% stake. If you put in 40 hours a week into the project, then he should only be expected to put in 8 hours per week.

Now of course, if you only put in 20 hours a week, which is pushing things when doing this consistently on top of a full-time job, then he should only put in 4 hours to be comparable to you.

That said there's an inflection point with money. If you do a proportional split of the profits, it may be that you earn enough to make it feel worthwhile still to push yourself whilst he is still earning so little he doesn't feel that it is more than a side-project.

One simple way to solve this problem of commitment would simply be to pay him for his hours to bring him up to the same profit that you are making.

Even if he has only 20% of the company, right now he can get 50% of the shared profit.

No, it's not. Modern systems work using "statistical parametric speech synthesis", i.e., they're models trained from data.
