Apply HN: lumiverse – the best place to discover educational videos
http://lumiverse.io

I want lumiverse to become the perfect place for people to publish, discover and discuss great educational videos. I want to build a friendly and intelligent community, make it easy for video creators to find an audience, and make it easy for viewers to discover awesome videos.

In the future, I want to expand into other types of content(starting with tutorials, art, short films, and comedy), and create the most awesome platform for hosting and selling high quality video series.

lumiverse will become to youtube what hacker news is to reddit.
The short answer is probably but not definitely, e.g. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4557354/

There is pretty clear relationship between, say, SAT scores and measured performance in college but that correlation is easier to accept intuitively. (Given that college GPA depends to a large degree on performance on tests.)
Global warming worse than thought due to new info on cloud particles
This company is already Andrea Rossi sketchy.

Is is appropriate to flag stories about Theranos? I doesn't seem appropriate to let them have an unfettered voice.
When he was elected, I was happy, perhaps he could enact the changes that needed to be made to reign in some of the spying, ridiculous defense contracts, and other items. I based this on the "not red or blue country" speech at the DNC convention. That hope passed quickly when he made the "I won" comment to the Republicans instead of just assuaging or listening to their now valid concerns.

I would argue that the obstructionism during the first two years should not be considered a factor based on the make-up of the Congress. The Democrat congress and President would have been able to hold the majority if they had not stirred up the hornet's nest of populism from the right through the healthcare act fiasco. Had he just focused on creating jobs, winding the war in Iraq and Afghanistan to a manageable level of involvement, and proselytized about family being important, we would not be having Trump running for office today.
Hating on Javascript is one of the trendiest things to do in online tech-centric communities.

The future of Javascript is bright, and the new features added are vast improvements onto a language that stagnated far too long. Many of the criticisms towards the new features are not well thought out. Luckily the TC39 committee is full of extremely intelligent developers who have a good understanding of the nuances in adding new features.
Actually, everything should be an expression.
Since the price is hard and denominated in dollars, I'm curious about its position in the FDA approval pipeline.
Determine if they are a Manager or a Leader. Only work for Leaders.

"Boss" is just another word for Manager, so look in the mirror and make sure you're using the right vocabulary to find what you seek.
You raise some interesting points.

FB shelled out $15B for Whatsapp, and clearly the contents of these messages was a major factor in that valuation, especially once the subscription fee was phased out.

Now they're voluntarily encrypting. The only explanation I can come up with is that they are realizing that they will not be able to keep the contents of these messages for themselves in the face of motivated nation-state actors, and so they're killing that golden goose rather than share it. This seems pretty extreme and makes me wonder what is really going on behind the scenes.

My assumption is that there is a contingency to monetize metadata (something I'm not seeing discussed here too much) but I can't help but wonder if FB is now looking at the $15B as a huge overpayment.
LXC team is very pleased to announce the release of LXC 2.0
I, also, think to solve a lot of it is supply and demand and dilution. put tasks up for bid.
They already take the LSAT to get in, what more logic test stats do you want

- Edit - it's a legitimate question, moreso than hand-waving about "post graduation logic tests".
Also reasonable: law professor is a great job if you can get it. Plus when you run out of money you click your slippers and say 'no place like corp law'.

Also possible that he's a lizard person. Not much textual evidence for this case but if you like 45 minute youtube videos I'll recommend some good ones.
Ask about the other employees. Executives, middle-managers, future co-workers. What is their background? How long have they been working in their group? Do they have significant prior experience working in a position such as this? What is their day to day like?

Ask to talk to people in the group you're going to be working in. What do they think of the company, their boss, team lead, other team members? Are they often asked to do more than should be expected of them? Do they love their position?

If they don't offer or won't let you meet with the future team, this indicates they really don't care whether the team likes each other personally, OR that they're so busy they have no time to meet you - which is not good either. It should also be face to face; nobody gets to know someone over the phone.

Finally, you can use probing questions to see how your future boss reacts. Make a joke and watch their body language. Ask them both professional and personal questions. Ask them how they would handle different work scenarios - would they throw a direct report under the bus, or try to cover for them? Do they micro-manage or are they hands-off? How responsive are they to communication, and in what forms? Do they work with many teams or just the one? Are they customer-focused or task-focused? Is their primary motivation to get ahead in the company, or merely to be helpful?

Sometimes there's no way to know if a boss is going to be a jerk. But 9 times out of 10, either someone else working there has noticed it, or they'll act like a jerk to you with the right prompting.
Cloud Test is a great idea -- are they using virtual devices that exactly replicate physical device conditions? I guess they must, to accommodate (probably) thousands of developers simultaneously testing their apps.
>Sadly, looking at that table, it's clear that Safari is the one dragging their feet. Full support for ES6 in the latest Chrome, FF, and Edge, but very poor support in the latest Safari.

Actually Safari (well, Webkit), in beta, is the closest to full ES6 support of all current browsers -- down to 98% or so.

It's just that Safari has a release only once or twice a year. But when it has, suddenly everybody on OS X/iOS using Safari would get all that stuff at once.

(And recently they started a public beta builds program that might see them releasing new versions much sooner).

>Apple recognizes that the Web poses a threat to their business model

And with that information above, can we put this age old conspiracy theory to rest?

Apple had long had the best mobile browser when Android still had the horrible "Android Browser". They regularly added all kinds of features that benefit apps (e.g. the canvas, css animations, several API to access native mobile features, etc.), and they continuously improve it (see this 98% ES6 support).

For a company that "fears web apps" Apple not only promoted them to developers (before and after they created their native app frameworks and app store), not only has extensive documentation and how to's for best mobile experiences on their dev pages, but also has seen that Safari webkit based apps have traditionally been a better experience than Chrome based web apps on Android.

Even today, it's faster, and more memory/cpu/battery efficient on mobile than Chrome is on Android.

Safari was only held back because it's not a huge priority for Apple -- not because of some fear that web apps will eat their app store lunch.

After all, web apps are difficult to monetize (no credit cards at hand), people expect most of them to be free, have a subpar experience for anything more demanding compared to bare metal languages, and don't integrate that well with native APIs anywhere (iOS, Android, Desktop, etc), as they have to run in a more restricted sandbox than native apps do (and of course somebody has to continuously porting all the native APIs, and at a great common denominator at that, since they also need to be portable).
MathML was never intended to be written by hand any more than SVG was. It was designed to provide a standard output format for equation editors. Wolfram created MathML explicitly to prevent TeX from being adopted as a defacto standard on the web because TeX, being concerned only with visual appearance, does not do a good job of describing the structure or semantics of equations. MathML excels in both these areas, providing a fairly simple and standardised visual model which fits well with web browsers, and a rich semantic model.

In other words, MathML is great and it's a much better fit for web browsers than anything else on offer. Just don't write it by hand!

What a shithole. Hope you got out there with some sanity left.
Even a genius has to sell himself… the remarkable resume of Leonardo da Vinci
Hi everyone. This is the author and I'll be available for the rest of the day if anyone has any points of discussion. In particular, one goal I have for this post is to think about practical issues people have in approximation theory (with an eye towards model-based optimization, though I am interested in broader topics as well). As much as I love theoretical issues in approximation theory, I want to be able to convert those to practical statements for people who want to understand the opportunities/limitations of various approximation situations. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Have a nice day!
I like this site. As simple as it is, it has a lot of potential community-wise.

- it could allow sql exports for various platforms
- it could feature an API so people can write their own framework drivers (for example creating migrations, importing existing schemas etc)

Lets hope that it gains users, so that the voting system (the star) can become more useful to filter out the garbage.

Edit: please remove the login wall to see the starred items, it raises the entry barrier quite a bit. Do you really want new visitors to see low rated schemas as the first thing?
