Restaurants are an interesting vertical because their technology is largely horizontally-integrated and heavily reliant on the POS system. We're currently working with courier companies and call centers primarily, and looking to move into retail, hospitality, and eventually medicine.

1. Who are you targeting this to - small businesses or large managed groups?

Our target customers are in the range of 50 to 150 employees per location, and we support multiple locations (e.g. a chain). We've worked with teams as small as 8 and as large as 400.

2. How will you compete with time trackers as they get integrated with POS? Does yours integrate?

The main benefit of time trackers in Staffjoy is that we can compare them to scheduled shifts. Detecting problems (missed shifts, truancy, clocking in without a shift) becomes significantly more powerful, and over time we can begin to model the performance of workers.

We support integrations and are amid publishing our first. At least one app is looking to trigger clock-in/clock-out events from their courier app to our API using this. We have an open-source Python client for our API and will be publishing better API resources in the coming weeks. https://github.com/staffjoy/client_python

3. How are you going to handle training? In my experience, people in the restaurant business do not know technology and any type of software requires extensive training.

We're onboarding in new verticals very manually right now to learn the best way and develop more scalable training.

4. Do shift managers find value over using their own existing methods?

Yes, because we automate a lot of decisions. The software shines when a new shift needs to be covered - e.g. somebody calls in sick - and the manager can find a replacement without having to recalculate a variety of overtime scenarios.
Crypto is math. Nobody can monopolize math.

edit:

On the subject of trying to keep powerful and/or dangerous knowledge locked away from the general public, one of my older HN comments[1] was about the larger, long-term problem our species' rapid access to new knowledge and powerful technology.

We need to figure out how to safely integrate new technologies into society asap.

Great! Now how about the next question:

Basically it's an extension of pdb that allows you to jump back and forth in time.

Yep, I'm surprised no one knows about pip-compile. It does exactly as the OP suggests, but with the ability to specify a range of versions.
> which is one of the reasons I'd personally like to see a usable reflection land in C++.

Of course. Reflection and proper macros. At least something like mbeddr would have been great.

I never said preprocessor is the best possible option. I'm only saying that at the moment it is the only practically available option, and therefore it's unavoidable, like it or not. I personally hate it with a passion, but I have to use it extensively.
Some believe it's intentional.

I believe it's unintentional, but that the result is eventually very similar, if not the same.
Alcohol is a drug, it is known for certain to be toxic, its abuse, and possibly even use (over years) is harmful.... yet society allows its use and even promotes it (and in Britain, its abuse is encouraged)

Yet alcoholics tend to be regarded as having an illness and are not treated as criminals, as opposed to what heroin addicts go through. Any discussion of the drug war that doesn't involve a discussion of the hypocrisy around alcohol is sorely lacking. And the drug war is about users - the UK government is currently stealthily spreading fear based propaganda around cannabis use through charity type organizations that are not obviously tied to the government.

And morality? Forget it. There really is no such thing as morality in Western societies today, except around the extreme things like pedophilia... and even then, that was hidden under the rug for decades - e.g. Jimmy Savile or the Catholic Church. Trying to bring morality into this sort of discussion is a feint. Morality tends to be an excuse for authoritarian attitudes and positions.

The best solution is to have an informed populace. Harm minimization and a more sophisticated understanding around altered states and psychological/spiritual issues by society. But that sort of thing does not mesh well with the agenda of a lot of politicians and other people.

Looking at Summer 2002, it appears that the hsci pages moved to http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://www.eng.utah.edu/outreac... which has 64 captures.

Yes, the final captures of hsci all say "page not found" (soft 404), but the earlier ones are fine.

Why is he leaving? That's covered in the OP: he wants to devote his full-time attention to working on rr, a reversible debugger for native code that imposes impressively low overhead, and possibly spin it into a startup.
Or that technical hirers are less likely to put the same weight on the gap, since there is no training or credentials or best practices to keep up with? Accountants need to know changing laws, other professions require periodic training, etc. IT seems to be more of, "can you and will you do it?"
> As you can imagine the difference is speed. The slower methods will use the text based FIX protocol and the fastest methods give you a feed and an FPGA to parse the feed with.

Err, No. You can parse FIX with an FPGA if you feel like it. It is up to you how you consume the data. The differential will be CoLocation vs dedicated line vs internet delivery on a base level and then differing subsets of feeds to varying liquidity pools.

So really you are paying whomever owns the DC for the privilege of a seat in the same DC as the exchange and for the cross connect right into their cage.

True that the password reset and the "login" using this proposal travel the same path and present the same attack vector but there is some disadvantage to the frequency in which the "login" system would travel down this less-than-secure path. The more times you use this the more likely that someone will just happen to be watching and waiting at the right time.

Let's not forget that most of the email system is still not encrypted (last time I checked anyway) even though the last mile between your mail server and your client may be.
This is useful for any collection that is also a capped collection (that is, the collection has only a certain amount of finite space allocated to it), not just the oplog. In fact, the oplog is just a special capped collection, hence why tailable cursors are available for it.

Also note that non-capped collections don't support tailable cursors, so this won't work. Documentation: https://docs.mongodb.org/manual/tutorial/create-tailable-cur...

*Edit: clarified that the oplog is a capped collection for context
Wired's prediction is even more annoying because they've started begging me to turn off my adblocker last time I visited them a couple of days ago (proof[0]).

If that's the future, why are they not going for it completely before their competitors? Seems like a good strategy to me if they believe in that, doesn't it?

I avoided the adblocking discussions so far, but now that I think about it, I do think that having my adblocking software on actually helps the maintainers of websites. Since I have never clicked on an ad on the Internet intentionally (I only have Internet access for about 7-8 years, Adblock was already a thing back then and I have discovered it before anyone else I know personally), I have never purchased a thing from the Internet after clicking on an ad in my life (having only a European debit card that's not supported by the US-based services kind of helps me out in this case, but it is a huge disadvantage in every other case). By not seeing them, I'm actually improving their click rate a bit, ain't I?

It's always 'climate change'.

No -- if you read their arguments more closely, what they suspect is that some populations were able to adapt to sudden climate change, while others were not.

So really, it's about adaptability.

It's interesting to read that you conceptualize screen readers as rendering a 2-D environment as audio. I'm a very visual/spatial person, but I've always conceptualized them as rendering a tree of GUI widgets, rather than a visual environment. I guess it's the difference between thinking of my desk as a visual collection of objects, and more as an object with an Arduino/RPI in the top drawer, papers and folders in the second, etc. Not saying either is wrong, just that maybe it's a matter of conceptualizing UIs as groups of collected and organized widgets, rather than as laid out on a map. I've come to enjoy developing with React because I can say "here's my workspace for a given task. It has a toolbar containing these related functions, these two loosely-related larger workspaces, etc." Then I let a visual designer come along after and make things look better. :)

Anyhow, I look forward to reading more about your SDK. Where can I learn more? I'm building an app that could benefit from a conversational UI on top of the traditional one and would be interested in reading up on what you offer, particularly as it's meant for blind users too.
According to her version of the events, she didn't do anything close to that for 11 years. By her own account, she ghosted, blocked and ignored in the hopes that he would "take the hint" except for when she was bored or lonely. Don't hint. Don't play games. Tell him directly that you're not interested.

You don't know what I have dealt with in my life.

Don't be melodramatic, he didn't ruin her life. He has harassed and stalked her, both of which are completely inexcusable but it's not like he's killing her pets, threatening her physical safety or sending boxes of excrement to her workplace.

Again, by her own account he didn't escalate to harassment or stalking until 11 years after they met. Perhaps she shouldn't have had to but she could have ended this before it began with a firm but polite "No thank you".
If you just press "up" without typing anything first then it works as you expect. I find ^R annoying if I've already started typing the command and then realise I can search the history (although that's probably configurable).

Once you get used to it, the only downside of up/down history search is when you ever use a shell that doesn't do it and you feel lost.
> I find it distasteful to refer to employees writing "All Lives Matter" as "malicious"

I parsed it as being about crossing out a message, not about writing another one. Not "you are malicious because you write a broader statement/remind people of a more encompassing position", but "you are malicious because you crossed out others speech, after we've told you we consider that as silencing others and that is not OK". There is a difference there, and it is quite carefully worded to limit the scope. (really, better than anything I would have expected from Facebook)

Now, I have no clue how the general conduct regarding those walls is and what happened before Zuckerberg's message, so it's hard to put it into precise context.

1 in 20 people report lasting negative effects of psychological treatment.

> Of 14 587 respondents, 763 (5.2%) reported experiencing lasting bad effects. People aged over 65 were less likely to report such effects and sexual and ethnic minorities were more likely to report them. People who were unsure what type of therapy they received were more likely to report negative effects (odds ratio (OR) = 1.51, 95% CI 1.22–1.87), and those that stated that they were given enough information about therapy before it started were less likely to report them (OR = 0.65, 95% CI 0.54–0.79).
It would be interesting to know more about the power you seen in `io.Reader` and `io.Writer`. They seem to say, effectively, that every type implements serialization from bytes and serialization to bytes. Generic serialization is not so unusual but maybe in the context of Go can be so much more?

Indeed. Encryption (use of ciphers) has always been the topic of open research. Often times the forefront of research was in government, but not always. RSA was an open cryptosystem, Diffie-Hellman was an open cryptosystem, as were blowfish/twofish and other cryptosystems going back decades. And, as you point out, even older cipher schemes have been around for ages. The mathematical theory of one time pads (which have been extensively used by governments and the military) is over a century old and was developed in the open. Openly developed theory of use of ciphers has been around for centuries.

Thanks, I know it wasn't. Likewise, my intent wasn't to make you feel bad. I imagine this landscape is all very new to you, and recognize that it's probably lots to come to grips with and navigate. To that end, kudos for finding a problem and running with it. :)
These history settings should clearly be the real defaults. I wonder how difficult it would be to get them changed upstream?

Upstreaming would also allow improvements, for example PROMPT_COMMAND='history -a' doesn't update history until the next prompt is displayed. If you close your terminal while a program is running then the last command entered is not saved.
Because the middle east was a sea of peace, social stability and contentment beforehand?

Straw man arguments don't help, either.
"The main reason people take offense at the ALM slogan is that it seems belittling of the (very serious, and more to the point, seriously unequal) threats to their physical safety that blacks (and other minority groups) have to deal with on a daily basis."

Do you have proof of this? The few cases we see in the media nearly all involved criminals fighting or antagonizing the police.

I have yet to see a case where a minority was minding their own business and the cops came and decided to shoot them dead.

The real issue is minority -> minority homicide rates. It's astronomical compared to pretty much any other statistic. Yet, it's not hip or cool to talk about.

The main problem I see is that all of these groups are separating us even more by race, to gain power.

Just look at all of these groups on college campuses that only allow minorities to participate (whites need not apply).

It's the exact same type of racist bullshit that happened during the 50s and 60s in this country, but because the shoe is on the other foot, it's somehow justified.

All lives do matter. Until we can accept this, we will never have equality.

He's losing heavily in states where the Democratic electorate has a large black component, and, from the exit polling, losing heavily because Clinton is getting pretty much all the black vote.

Those happen to also be largely southern, conservative states, but its not conservatives or Republicans voting in Democratic primaries that are giving Hillary big wins.
agree; a device cheaper than a steak connecting to an IP address isn't news - just because it's a Chinese IP address doesn't mean you've got awesome presentation material.
Agile is the idea that requirements are always in flux, and therefore it's pointless to spend time upfront gathering requirements and writing specs and following those specs since there's a good chance they will have become irrelevant by the time the product ships. So agile says "just get something, anything, out the door as soon as possible, receive feedback, then keep revising."

Waterfall is the opposite approach, where you have a formal requirements gathering phase, then you commit everything into design docs, and follow those docs with as few changes as possible. It's similar to how a house is built: first you check your local zoning laws, then have an architect draw the plans, then dig a hole and build a foundation, then build the skeleton, the walls, etc. You don't tell the client, "hey, we just dug the hole for the foundation, come live in it for a few weeks and give us feedback so we know what part to build next."
