Surprisingly, not everyone is aware of everything that has ever been on the front page of HN.
Well that's not actually the original video, just a YouTube user's creation. This is the original one: http://youtu.be/DXSyQjppqG0
The financial incentive to stay is continued vesting of presumably more-valuable options, about which you have inside knowledge -- the state of development, the sales pipeline, high performance from founders, a deeper understanding of the industry, etc. It doesn't take much job hunting to realize as an employee you're taking a bigger risk than the company. There's some crazy people out there and some really terrible bosses. The same way it's really difficult to evaluate an employee in an interview it's just as hard to evaluate a working environment, a boss, whether the ceo is a meddler with the attention span of a hummingbird, etc. A sane boss with a solid development process that doesn't encourage late nights or lead to incredibly fragile software and/or heroic, stressful ops efforts is worth a hell of a lot.

You just want to leverage golden handcuffs to retain employees... I think honesty all around is the best method. Unfortunately, that further devalues the (already low imo / in my advice) value of options and suggests people are much better off going to established companies.
Uhhh, I never suggested writing lisp in a C style, or ruby in a functional style (well, more so than it encourages at least). That would be crazy. My point is that there aren't that many ideas under the sun. Lazy evaluation, super. Monads, ok. Real-deal, no playing memory allocation and management? Where's that union stashing variables again? Are you sure? Uhhh, fine I guess. (Although I'd rather take the monads.)
This article pretty much sums it up: https://medium.com/insurge-intelligence/how-the-cia-made-goo...

I wouldnt work there even if I was smart enough to do so, for moral reasons.
Wow, what a great observation. I have this weird anxiety about posting comments on HN that I don't feel anywhere else on the internet. The flip side, though, is when people upvote my comments the feeling of reward is significantly more satisfying. It's like, "These other smart people valued my contribution, yay!" When I get down voted I feel like a real heel. On disqus I've sometimes felt so dominant in threads that it was just disheartening.

This is in contrast to IRL social life, where I dislike the feeling of being seen as a know-it-all, so I pursue laughs much more intently. It's the immediate feedback during interactions that I love/crave.

Do you really think a 5 step animation is enough to overcome UI problems like navigational searching or a fundamental misunderstanding of how email works?

Those things are examples of the UI failures I'm talking about. Blaming the person using the app for doing something wrong is how "fixes" like putting in an "intro" happen. What we need is to design human-centred experiences that work the way we automatically think they should, not patching things up with instructions that'll be forgotten within 5 minutes.

This library puts the developer first (driven by thinking like "I told my users what's in the app so now they know what's there.") rather than putting the person using the app first (driven by thinking like "The users mustn't be afraid to experiment by clicking on stuff.").

The (old) C# compiler, as the VB compiler, was actually part of the .NET framework starting with .NET 2. Since .NET comes pre-installed on Windows, you also have a compiler. However, the new C# 6 compiler is no longer included in the framework, I think. When you install .NET 4.6 it even adds a notice to the old compiler's greeting message:

This compiler is provided as part of the Microsoft (R) .NET Framework, but only supports language versions up to C# 5, which is no longer the latest version. For compilers that support newer versions of the C# programming language, see http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=533240.
They specifically suggest "create a snapshot that you can roll back to later" to effectively remove the 90 day limit. Seems reasonable

It depends on how this was implemented. UPS (and other carriers) expose proper APIs for tracking (among other things). One needs to get permission from UPS before using those APIs. So, unless you do something wrong with that API or not implement any updated specifications, this is unlikely to happen.
Just because you didn't knew does not makes it any less click bait.
"According to Doctors Without Borders, which is critical of drug-pricing policies, it costs Gilead $100 to manufacture the 90 pills in the 12-week course."

Sounds more like a $1.11 pill to me. And it seems pretty straightforward to sell something at (a minimum) 90% margin and make money.
From what I gathered you have 2 solutions for GPU passtrough : if you're a Unix guru and have plenty of time to spare you might make it work with Xen or if you have money VMWare looks easier but you may need a license and special hardware (if you have a regular Nvidia graphic card it won't work, you need an ATI or a Nvidia Quadro).
You must not remember some of the more memorable worms like blaster. It was a complete nightmare and would own machines that weren't behind a firewall in minutes. Luckily long since patched, but it's only a matter of time for others.
I don't think that comparison really holds...the Knights were basically what religion taken to its logical conclusion would be in a world where belief actually did impact reality and veracity of information. I think that's a lot more subtle and deeper than Anonymous.

Honestly that's a really interesting theme and I wish it was examined more in other stories but cyberpunk and even post-cyberpunk is basically dead.
I looked into another alternative: dnode, although I think I'll still stick with V8js for now. I don't think it's avoidable unless you want to switch to a Nodejs API server as well.
The judge's reasoning was explicitly based on many of the Founders being members of the first Congress, so you have granted that the argument is completely bogus.

And the point of the comment you're responding to is that the quoted argument is a non sequitur, which it surely is. The fact that the fifth Congress voted for a bad, self-serving law that violated the principles of the Constitution is completely irrelevant to whether the first Congress, in passing the All Writs Act, was doing the same. The argument is really quite circular: the belief that it is not absurd that the first Congress willingly violated the principles of the Constitution is the premise, not a conclusion that can be drawn from something done by the fifth Congress or the 105th Congress.
Depending on your model of laptop, you can probably get reasonable speed from expansion storage for rarely used images like these.

I opted for the 128GB SSD in my MBP (last 17" model, from late 2011) and a few years later I added a 128GB ExpressCard SSD, which i use pretty much exclusively for (largely Linux, largely via Vagrant) Virtual Machine images. Sure, I'll definitely order a bigger built-in SSD on the replacement, but on a newer machine without ExpressCard you could also use a USB3 flash drive or (if you are on a mac) a Thunderbolt SSD device.
oh irony
Not only that, you need an iPhone and several iPad versions too because they are all different. Supporting Apple devices suck unless that is your main dev platform.
hi.. Avada theme testing Point
Done this a year before they've done theirs – https://github.com/oskarkrawczyk/tour.js (never got traction unfortunately, probably because it's MooTools-based and 2012 was the year when everyone who used MooTools started dropping it in favor of jQ).
I think the reason why pinterest did this was as a vanguard of what you see here in the article now. There are still many companies that are in pinterest's position and do not do what they did.

The engineer market in SF right now is very highly heated, and this kind of incentive makes an offer from pinterest far more appealing. That and people are starting to compare notes and make articles on medium and others really spelling it out is probably hurting recruiting and this is coming out as a response.

How Elasticsearch breaks part 2
From my experience writing articles for magazines, documentation, technical analysis on daily basis might be enough for your bills.

"IDL" is perhaps the wrong technical term for this because it's not really an IDL in the traditional sense. Quark is turing-complete and can be used to compile the protocol semantics, for example, backoffs, retries, circuit breaking, tracing etc right into the generated code. We're working on some cloud services to handle stuff like seamless service discovery and log/tracing information collection.

the d12 ones are effectively equivalent to d20s because an icosahedron is the dual solid of the dodecahedron; depending on "how you look at it", T1 virus capsids can either be "d20s" or "d12s".
Wow, that just blows me away. Setting them up in a grid tie configuration would make for a very cost effective field of solar collectors. You would achieve 100% on time with the ability to work on any 2KW chunk at any time.

Distributed Security Alerting
I see this usage fairly regularly. I'm not 100% certain of this, but I think it might be more common in Britain than America.
They're one of the worlds biggest (my share market value, and mind share) companies, and almost the entirety of their revenue is generated by collecting huge amounts of personal information about people all over the web, and using that data to sell adverts, all over the web.

Yes, a percentage of their revenues have been spent on things that help people without inflicting more harm (e.g. some of their software contributions to the world, some services they run "for free" which the industry uses for security purposes).

That doesn't mean their other actions should be ignored or accepted as OK.

Edit:

Based on the other comment maybe this is about considering working for Google?

I wouldn't work for Google for all the money in the world. I've had a high paying contract position doing work I didn't really enjoy that much, on projects that made questionable choices (I don't mean tech choices).

The saying "you can't buy happiness" is fucking true. If you are doing something you hate, all the money in the world won't make you enjoy it.

So your argument is that, because a lot of time has passed since the All Writs Law was passed, judges should take it to mean whatever they want it to mean.

On that bit about you seeing what all others fail to see, I suggest that you look up "The Dunning-Kruger Effect".
Great company. Too arrogant. It may require a kick in the pants to become what it wants to become. Something more human altering than websearch. As far as one trick ponies go. It's not too bad. I wish they hadn't given up on space.

Bacteriophages are often icosahedral in the headpiece. In fact, the packing motor portion of the icosahedral bacteriophage was not solved until recently because the symmetry averaged structure washed out the stalk part in crystallography and cryo-EM techniques. (it was machine-vision-assisted cryo-EM class averaging technique that helped elucidate the structure)

Yes, there are some filamental viruses such as TMV and ebola, and the P22 bacteriophage, but most viruses, even membrane-enveloped ones, seem to have icosahedral or pseudo-icosahedral structures.

My original point being: "d20"-ness is the rule, not the exception.
This doesn't apply to Reactos though. The api is "whatever windows is doing". Unless they remove something supported by windows N-1 and instead implement replacement interface from windows N, there's not going to be a "breaking" release. But as far as I know the API target is not going to change for a while - it's 2003 kernel / 8.1 user.
Im not sure how the title is click-bait, can you explain?

>Although agree, ...with your position, I disagree in your reasoning. Corporations are persons because they are an organized group of people established to carry out the intentions and express the views, i.e. speech, of their members.

The headline lead me to believe this was some kind of DOM integrity technology, which would be cool. I have a vague notion this is bad for both security and performance.
It's almost like the idea of relying on stdout from processes in a container to collect logs is fucking stupid.

With all the hoops people jump through so they can say "we use Docker, we're cool" I think I shall refer to Docker fan-boys as Olympic Gymnasts from now on.
they vest over a period of time, not usually all at once. my company does it evenly over 4 years with a 1 year cliff. other companies can have it skewed towards the latter 4 years. employees do get refreshers as well. so if it vests equally over a certain amount of years, totally should count that portion towards yearly income. In your analogy, it's like counting how much you owe in mortgage payments every year towards yearly expenses.
A bit OT but if microservices communicate over http, doesn't that mean a lot of overhead due to handshakes etc? Compared to just calling another method in the same code base it seems really wasteful and slow.
Yes and no. The algorithm works upon manually-defined tags, and one of the points being made is that those are too broad, possibly because the people tagging don't have enough insight into particular populations.

The example given of the person who got recommendations for films with lesbian sex scenes after watching Blue is the Warmest Color is relevant. Yes, the film has such scenes. But it's also won the Palme d'Or, yet that isn't tagged and therefore used by the algorithm, when (I'd say) it's much more likely to have been the reason for a particular person to watch it.
Review a Mind for Numbers
"What's important is the letter of the law, the relevant preceding decisions, and the judge's reason and conscience (which is checked by appeals). The context the law was originally written in is just fluff."

Fascinating how you contradict yourself. The judge's reason and conscience demand that he interpret the law as it was intended by those who wrote it. The notion that "the letter of the law" should prevail is completely lacking in a reasoned understanding of what language is and how it works, and the notion that judges should make decisions based on their personal prejudices is completely lacking in conscience.

Points noted. The idea was to keep this thing completely simple. Per instance struct gives a complexity to carried out the instance when it is needed. so by using global this kept simple. same goes for the "Adding multiple listeners to one event enhancement". multiple listener means multiple call params. the authors couldn't desided how this will be handled. hope those features will be added real soon.

UK-based full-time employed tech writer here. Been shaping my experience towards that magic 50% programming (Java, JavaScript, Python) and 50% writing. Current gig pays well but doesn't offer the amount of programming I would like. I've been a freelancer (10 years) before, and it's a little feast-or-famine, but averages out at least equivalently to being employed, with the added bonus that you usually get decent, long breaks between contracts. Various UK government-based initiatives (e.g. IR35, recent dividend legislation) have slightly taken the lustre off the freelancing lifestyle, but not so much that I wouldn't reconsider it for the right kind of work.

I've been seriously considering some outreach to young startups who wouldn't need a full-time writer. Great docs really help to distinguish great software - would Django have become so mainstream if its docs weren't so good?

Because make is for managing dependencies, which it tracks by files, as soon as you need to do something which doesnt leave files around, such as start a new service, you then need to plug this hole, by using "touch" and leaving files around, which this example doesnt do so it may actually leave the system inconsistent and make the makefile do things it shouldnt, thus causing errors difficult to diagnose. But then you run into the problem of making make have functions of a service manager, which it isnt, and you will most likely fail doing that.

Use Make when you need to track dependencies based on files, such as for build systems whose output is files, and bash/other script for managing a hosts services which are/may be required for the build system.

Webshots as a service; a solved problem?
This is correct. My grandfather was a physicist who reconstructed some of the nastier accidents in CA. He was always looking for two values for most situations: delta-v, and (mv^2)/2. The 'v' being the delta-v of the two vehicles when they collided. The damage done will generally be a function of the kinetic energy that hit it.

Note that this implies that unless there are other dangerous road conditions (fog, ice, etc), the safest speed is "the same speed as everybody else" so the delta-v is minimized.

Fun note for HN: he had software built for DOS that I helped him get running in dosbox so he could run it on a modern computer. It would reconstruct the motion of the vehicles from the final resting positions and the depth of the dents. working backwards from the implied kinetic energy. Apparently the DOS version was a port of his original FORTRAN source... on punch cards.
