Ask HN: The traffic a webpage gets when on the front-page of hackernews?
Of course it depends on several factors like:

1. No. of hours the page spent on the front-page

2. The position of the article on the front-page

3. The number of times the same article has been on the front-page

4. The topic that it covers

5. Different factors like, the page gets slashdotted, featured on a subreddit, linked to from a popular blog might inflate the traffic, but "http-referrer" can help clear things up?

I'd like to know, out of mere curiosity, how much traffic your site got because of it being "hackernews'd" I've seen a lot of blogs / sites hit hosting limits or go down when it has spent a mere 2 hours on the front-page.

Thanks.
I could not find a press release by any reputable source.
patio11 this is horribly incorrect and you know better. The core argument is about the nature of bitcoin and the relationship of max block size limit to centralization pressures.
I forget which site it is off the top of my head but there's a pretty prominent gif sharing site that does it I often get linked to.

I think it's basically just as you say, for English speakers anyway, a bit of an easier way to read out URLs when talking in person or voice chatting. With non-English speakers it doesn't do much, and you're forced to say letter for letter as you would with a lot of other URLs.
I agree regarding the importance of fungability, but not all the way. If a majority of reputation engines only advised rejection of payments as offered by the bottom 1% of ranked teams, then 99% of teams would still experience the fungability expectation.

Otherwise, if the reputation engines are too strict, no one would trusts the currency. Too loose, and there is no effective deterence to unsustainable activity. There's an ideal balance to the targeted overall rejection rate among all teams, most likely erring on the side of being too loose (0.5% rejection?), filtering out only the worst of the worst. This targeting to a metric value reminds me of fed actions to indirectly influence the economy, such as with setting interest rates.
Most people don't know most things most of the time. It's not a result of anything - it's just that the default condition is to not know things, and you have to actively learn (and remember!) something to leave that default state.

Interesting article, it is good to see continued support from Dell in this area.

The writing style is strange though, Agam Shah seems to be chief "press release cut & paster". The style is almost bot like, like an AI summariser.
The singular of data would be a 1, to be pedantic.

Edit: Information is uncountable, so maybe data should as well be. Is that plural or singular? Yes, you can have sand and a grain of sand, but the grain is hardly sandy. A lone 1 is hardly, excuse the pun, dative.
It's completely unreasonable to expect consumers to research the entire supply chains of everything they purchase in order to factor in all their social costs.
After reading this article on NPM as a build tool I immediately gave up on Gulp and Grunt. Highly recommended!

Blockchains are a liberating technology, and I want liberty for the people. I want the network effect of decentralized identities to suck in as many applications as possible and liberate their users. My goal is mass adoption.

Money is inherently political. The ease of creating viable competing currencies will constrain the politics, but it can never eliminate it.
I feel like people are generally comfortable making the assertion that the community is unwelcoming; but those making the assertion generally don't seem to be able to back it up.

A welcoming community doesn't need to coddle everyone who might send a patch, because that's a lot of people. If they want to succeed, they should document enough to get started, and review unfinished patches.
The really bad news is for page actions.

Google made this change hoping to make extensions more visible to the user, seeking a "security by awareness effect", buts for page actions they now have the opposite effect, "extension invisibility".

If users hide a page action extension to the hamburger menu, which can be done as easily as dragging right edge of the address bar to the right, the page action icons do no appear at all, so the user cannot click them.

Google should ensure that if the page action icon is hidden to the menu, it then appear in the address bar, to greatly improve usability and "security by awareness".

It's really telling that the base mode Arduino is just an atmega328p on a breadboard, with literally nothing separating it from the real world but the odd, optional, resistor.
Never give up Andrey, Glenda will rise again !
Arduino/Wirings value is in what it _removed_ to give a standardised way of programming the microcontrollers.

So the "little more" part is the difference between some art student being able to create something cool vs. giving up after three days banging his head against a wall. But when you're an expert in a field it's hard to appreciate that.
It is just the proof that Reddit voting system does not function properly, not being able to down vote with a karma below a certain value is essential.
And yet all the difficulties cited in the linked article are political difficulties. Anytime you put three or more people in a room together, you get politics.
What is libertarian about Reddit or Bitcoin?

Just to make sure we are on the same page:

"Libertarianism (Latin: liber, "free") is a political philosophy that upholds liberty as its principal objective. Libertarians seek to maximize autonomy and freedom of choice, emphasizing political freedom, voluntary association, and the primacy of individual judgment."

I do not see here to support of trolls who were running a campaign against bitcoin on a platform that lacks of basic functionality to have a useful discussion about technical subjects.

Keep in mind a proper solder station has things like fume extraction, hazard waste disposal, anti-static pads, etc. etc. In short, I can think of reasons why a proper station is not practical for a given middle school.

But I definitely agree with your breadboarding point and overall sentiment. In college I recall a series of labs that built a fairly workable 4-bit computer on breadboards. They're very workable, even preferable, for the right type of circuit/project.
It takes ~5 seconds on my macbook pro with just the standard set of tools installed.
I'm also fine if you pull out bits of my code and use them in your codebase, just as long as you release the changes to those bits. Probably function-level granularity for separating mine from yours would work, and I don't expect you to write wrappers. Also automatically doing stuff with my code is fine.

Suspicions are high. The claims are amazing. Greater energy density, lower heat, better charging and discharging performance, will be cheaper, less pollution for the environment.

I want to believe, because this could be a huge breakthrough for all IoT devices. But like the other comment said, until it can be bought, it just sounds too good to be true.
I can imagine the popular, rich and powerful to love it. Imagine avoiding all the abuse, threats, snide remarks, witty rebuttals, imaginative memes and uncomfortable truths that Twitter gives them as a platform. People want something more sanitized as a platform. It's quite an interesting development.
LOL
The wrong thesis that Circuits Today is referring to is my BA thesis from 2013, that was a (much different) thesis on the history of the platform and its application in the field of Arts. That was more of a journalistic oriented thesis and has nothing to do with Hernando's original work.

Ask HN: Donald Trump + (Mona Lisa – Hillary Clinton) = ?
I charge everything with a generator I attached to my perpetual motion machine.
I do collages from art. Today I was thinking it might be an interesting challenge to "translate" politics into art. Picturing Clinton as Mona Lisa came to mind. But who would Trump be?

Can somebody resolve this via word2vec?
I have no opinion on Gradle at this point, though the developers you mention probably need a casual reminder that code == data, and complex enough XML spec is indistinguishable from a poorly formatted Abstract Syntax Tree (or Lisp code).
Given how offended you are by shipping emissions, I really hope you don't use any products that require shipping - if you're not in China or South East Asia, I hope you avoid the cheap clothing and electronics that are made there, for example.

The Suez Canal cuts just one part of those shipping trips if you're in Europe, and if you're in the Americas, there is nothing to shorten the trip between the world's manufacturing hub and the west coast - indeed, you have to travel over an ocean that literally takes up half the globe.

So, to use your own argument from above, I hope that you only use locally-sourced equipment, clothing, and food, because I have to live in this world and I doubt you consulted anyone or anything about the shipping requirements for your stuff. I hope you're paying for more expensive locally-produced goods, because if you're getting the cheap imports, you're only caring about your own bottom line.
It means ice fishing is tedious, and some distraction is required.
Oh, for fuck's sake. Way to straw-man my position. I'm calling out the waste in taking the long way around Africa just to save a few bucks, not saying "DOWN WITH THE GLOBAL SHIPPING SYSTEM, MAN!"
Banzi might come out as a douche, like Steve Jobs was. At a very very very different level they achieved the same.
Would you prefer a world where wiring would still be a pretty niche project badly marketed only available for those in the field or a world where someone much more marketing oriented made Arduino explode and ignite a small but meaningful revolution in the approach to electronics?
It's pretty bloody obvious where iPhones physically come from. And it's hardly a secret that western democracies have had their manufacturing bases implode because consumers prefer cheaper to local; few consumer-targeted things are built in the west these days.
I love this phrase Satoshi scheme! We should indeed be using it more
Yep, copy paste fail the first link.
I was only referring to salaries regardless of technologies used. In my relatively expensive US city I do not see any companies willing to pay more than about $150k for a senior dev. This is similar to what I see in most cities, and there are not many companies giving stock options as is common at Google, Facebook, etc.

The question is: you've been doing higher level work, but has your compensation flatlined?
Actually, I think make should default to parallel builds.

New exploit steals secret cryptographic keys from mobile devices
Recent dramas highlight the underlying power structures in Bitcoin and reddit, so it's now clear that neither is truly libertarian, but Bitcoin was often promised as a libertarian alternative to traditional currencies, and reddit was once promised as a libertarian "bastion of free speech on the worldwide web".

Perhaps the lesson here is that libertarian promises are, at best, temporary.
But it's also not "taking shipping routes back to the 1800s".
It was, however, expanded recently at great expense, for the income it could deliver. It's not like the 2016 canal is the same as the 19th C canal.
It is still a cluster of wires - hdmi, power, usb, audio. USB WiFi & BT dongles are as small as 5mm outside the socket.
Breaking Bitcoin's hash algorithm would require a feasible pre-image attack on SHA-256. Such a thing would have far greater consequences than forcing Bitcoin to change its proof-of-work algorithm. Tons of protocols and applications would be rendered insecure. We'd all be scrambling to fix TLS, SSH, IPSec, GPG, and dozens of other key pieces of software. I'm not sure how Debian-based systems would upgrade, since deb packages are verified by SHA-256. In short, it would be utter chaos.

That's exactly what MMM says and people happily participate.
"The info blurb about each product is actually informative and seems written by someone who actually knows a thing or two about that item."

...and writes in a style that is understandable by someone who knows nothing about the item.

That's the key differentiator.
I'm curious about this shell script ; this looks to good to be true!

Having automated the build of dozens of FOSS packages, I can definitely say that autoconf-based packages are _by far_ the easiest ones to build ; especially if you want to do funny stuff like out-of-tree builds or cross-compilation (can your 186-line script do this?).

Some projects (x264, ffmpeg) provide 'configure'-like custom scripts, trying to imitate what autoconf does ; but in practise you can't automate their build the same way you did with autoconf-based projects.

For fuck's sake indeed - you're so emotive about the issue ("no consulting anyone!!!eleventy!") that you should actually be reminded that you're only talking about one leg of a journey, and shipping still has a fuckton of emissions. And since you're so frothy about "no consultation", then you should be limiting your own usage of goods.

My point is that you're turning a molehill into a mountain (11 days x 100 ships in 2 months = evil, 17k ships/mo on normal 2-week routes = yawn), and chucking a huge hissy-fit about it - I am not saying that your capitalised words are your argument (so no straw man there), but instead that you're so emotional about it. So if you are a standard western consumer (and not someone like a hippy in a commune with low consumption), then you're being pretty hypocritical.

If you're that emotional about these emissions, then put your money where your mouth is and stop being a consumer - ie: you should be 'DOWN WITH GLOBAL SHIPPING'. And encourage others to not be consumers as well, instead of trying to enact punitive legislation on an industry that's famously difficult to regulate.

Sorry, I downvoted you by accident, can someone else please upvote to correct this.
Serious question; where does all the money come from to run these operations (eg. the miners)?

I mean I haven't seen any legitimate use of bitcoin advertised for consumers. So who is using bitcoins for transactions?

Is this like with torrenting where people keep telling "there are legitimate uses for it like downloading linux iso:s" but in reality 99% of the traffic is illegal.

I'm thinking that bitcoin is used mainly for money transfer for illegal stuff (drugs etc.), because I haven't read or heard about any legitimate large scale use of it (exept maybe speculation, so does the money for this come from somekind of ponzi scheme then? Or maybe investors really believe that some day this will be a large legal enterprise?)

It is scary how much power and influence Google now have in setting the agenda for public discourse. When this opens up to other "prominent figures and organizations", it will be at Google's discretion who is worthy of the public's attention and which issues and areas will get this treatment.

This seems a step beyond simply organising the world’s information. Even if it's with the best intentions, the fact is that they will have a significantly influence on the discourse itself.

This is a false dichotomy. I would prefer a world in which Banzi worked together with Barragán, which Barragán would have clearly loved and which might have given Arduino an innovator at its helm and the ability to actually keep up with the times, rather than being steamrolled by the Raspberry Pi on one end and by better microcontroller designs like Particle (Spark), Tessel and the MicroPython boards on the other.

I liked the linkbait - it got me interested enough to click the link (on fivethirtyeight.com), and then I enjoyed the article. Agree that the article title does not match the main theme of the piece--the piece is too long for that anyways. The title for this post is probably too general to get many people interested. There's new "research" on startups written about almost every day.
Same reasoning here. Like my financial data local. I also use own toolset using ledger cli for reporting and entry. People developed tools to convert CSV from banks to ledger format.

Using text only and my own toolchain I can setup how I want. Get reporting how I want it. You just need some time for the initial startup.

> "no consulting anyone!!!eleventy!"

Just so we're perfectly clear, the single exclamation point in the entirety of my contribution to this thread is the one where I was sending up the position you seemed to be making me out to have held. I wouldn't qualify anything I've said as even remotely "frothy", "hissy-fit", or "wailing" — or, frankly, even terribly "emotional" — either.

I'd invite you to reconsider your characterization of my position accordingly.
Sure, but they aren't being paid by their users so why should they follow their interests? Ideally the users should be paying for development they control but that of course would never happen because of the Tragedy of the Commons and such.

Interesting application of reputation to market-based economies. Doctorow's article won't be a surprise to anyone who lived behind the Iron Curtain during socialism.

The State held information on every citizen, and all official transactions resulted in stamps and signatures in little booklets. The stamps and signatures were a proxy to reputation. Don't have the 40 years worth of stamps in your employment booklet? That's a problem for your retirement. Know the right people with the right connections? You get a better apartment than everyone else.

Ask HN: How do you split up the initial work on a complex project?
When a project is up and running, it's usually quite easy to divide tasks, but I find this harder when getting started. Do you do a lot of whiteboard design, and split it into classes/other units of code? How do you make sure these work well together? Or does every project best get started with work by one person, that others can add upon later?

There are some articles in the Spanish press.

For instance, the newspaper "El Mundo" claims that the Chinese company Chint have paid 18 millions for the 10% of the Spanish company (http://www.elmundo.es/motor/2016/02/11/56bc7d6aca4741e31e8b4...).

If those batteries work as stated, it sounds really cheap.

It says that in a second phase the Chinese are going to invest 350 millions.

Anyway, it seems that they are really building a factory in Murcia.

As always, take extraordinaries claims with a grain of salt but looks like there is really something here.
