Intel Announces Restructuring (cutting 11% of workforce)
Those people who helped increase the quarterly earnings at the time by selling this tech to the Chinese government must've felt pretty proud of themselves.
It is not about regulated vs. unregulated industries: it is about centralized vs. decentralized regulations.

The main reason - I can't remember the source where I read it, somebody please share it if you know it - is that Uber exploited the decentralized regulation of taxi companies.

Other companies - like Theranos, regardless of their actual efficacy in what they do - had to fight against centralized, national regulations in their specific industries and regulated statewide, therefore making them effortless against the entire country as opposed to Uber, fighting against local municipalities.

I think they meant a week to request it, receive it, fill it, send it back, upload it to S3.
> How common is this kind of clause in agreements these days? How flexible are employers about negotiating it?

Arbitration clauses have become boilerplate language in employment agreements. I've found smaller companies are generally more flexible on negotiating details. Whether or not they concede, depends on how badly they want you.

Here's some ideas on making the agreement fair > http://www.nolo.com/legal-encyclopedia/signing-arbitration-a...
The FISC is a great example of why separation of powers is so important. The FISC was created as a check on the foreign surveillance powers of the executive, which are not limited by the Constitution. As a consequence, it imbued executive action with the imprimatur of the judiciary, making it easy for the executive to blur the lines between Constitutional foreign surveillance and potentially Unconstitutional domestic surveillance.

When people call for giving foreign terrorists criminal trials in domestic criminal courts, think about FISC. When you try to force the judiciary to butt its nose into the executive's business, you undermine the judiciary.

Perfect, thanks for clarifying! Yeah it wasn't really obvious if this is an account Painless 1099 owns or the user owns. Thanks!
Your question is a bit open ended. You want to learn about "stocks" and "market". The second one is a blanket term, but I'll share what I have been doing as, like you, I too prefer videos/audios over reading books.

For past one year, I have been very actively listening to financial podcasts, reading investopedia, taking classes on Coursera (I avoided Udemy so as not to pay for courses). After gleaning through various resources, I settled on the following:

Podcasts:
[1] Money Tree Investing: http://moneytreepodcast.com/
[2] We Study Billionaires - The Investors Podcast: https://www.theinvestorspodcast.com/

I listened to other podcasts and finally settled on these two. I particularly like [2] for the in depth analysis on markets from each guests perspective/expertise.

Classes:
[1] Understanding Financial Markets: https://www.coursera.org/learn/understanding-financial-marke...
[2] Introduction to Finance: https://www.coursera.org/specializations/valuation-investmen...

I took only one course in [2], couple of years back and it was very helpful.

Sites:
[1] Investopedia.

Keeping in mind that you are a beginner.

I do not invest money in stocks. As @brianpgordon mentioned below, it is very hard to beat the market, especially for a beginner. I only put money in ETF's and low cost index funds. But listening and or reading above resources keeps me educated about this field.

Personal Opinion: "The Intelligent Investor" is very dense and is not for casual investor. Read it only if you are serious about this subject.

EDIT: Edited too many general statements.
Sorry that's a cop out. The complaint is that promo codes for a brand new, very useful integration are limited to people who statistically are less likely to use them (new users on a new platform). "We hope you continue to enjoy paying for great boot times and UX" is... not a reply worth typing, honestly.

I'm a small DigitalOcean customer. If you want the promo to be cost effective, limit it to the first 250 users or whatever. I don't think anybody here would give you a hard time about protecting the financial integrity of a program. But don't hide behind that if it's really just a way to get a few new users in the door (which is fine!) - just be honest about it.

The question was "why doesn't the mainstream media cover this news?" and my assertion is that it is no longer news to their audiences. That can be global warming it can be Spacex launches it can be dubious dealings at Panamanian law firms.

My thesis is that stories about taking action would be considered "newsworthy" with respect to this topic, the lack of action is not.
Their actions are anticompetitive towards developers and app publishers. These are individuals and companies, both valid entities in an antitrust complaint.

They are just extremely (ridiculously) secretive.

I remember at one point half of the team (up to director level I mean) knew about a project and the other half didn't. The VP and director had to argue hard to just get everyone in the damn loop. Then they made us sign extra stuff and reminded us that we could be fired or sued if we leaked anything blah blah blah.

Dysfunctional.
A company doing something similar closed down last year:

https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/zen99
It says on the page:
"Note: In general, the farther away you are from an Amazon S3 region, the higher the speed improvement you can expect from using Amazon S3 Transfer Acceleration. If you see similar speed results with and without the acceleration, your upload bandwidth or a system constraint might be limiting your speed."

So I suspect you might be having that problem in your test.
Probably they will make it "thinner and lighter", cutting one or two hours of battery life and few hundred megahertz processor speed.
I wish I had a screen shot but the post had 42 up votes and did not have a single comment. Am I the only person that finds that a bit odd?
Yeah, they call the activation word a "wake word", but I couldn't help but think of it as a "safe word". It needs to be something that you're only likely to say when you mean it. Which, to me, implies it should be customizable. I should be able to set it to whatever makes sense for me.

This issue comes up in science fiction stories, often set on spacecraft, where there is an AI that is spoken to. On Star Trek, they just said "Computer?" and that got it's attention. But that always seemed a little clunky to me. At first I thought the ship AI should have the same name as the ship, but I quickly realized that probably wouldn't work so well. Picard: "This is the USS Enterprise!" Computer: "Yes?" On Babylon 5, a Minbari character just called his ship, "ship", and in Alien, the ship was Mother, etc. I decided that if I ever wrote an SF story with a shipboard AI (or HAD a ship with a shipboard AI :) I would call it Maru-san.
Ah, bad old days, when you command the computer to shut down and it cleans a little and stays on, suggesting to restart it, what else would you want to do anyway?

I remember the orange bitmapped letters of 95, that color and the jagged letters stayed in my mind.

I've used Windows NT, various versions, but somehow suppressed the memory of the final screen. Anybody knows which version(s) of Windows NT offered "Restart" after the shutdown?

"What's the fastest & cheapest way to get data off Amazon's cloud services?"

We[1] may have a good answer for you ...

Let's assume you have terabytes of data, otherwise there's no difficulty, right ?

So, when you combine the HN readers discount pricing for 10TB datasets, which is 4c/GB/mo. with the fact that we support 's3cmd' in our environment:

ssh user@rsync.net s3cmd get s3://rsync/mscdex.exe

... and the fact that we have no other charges (no transfer/usage/bandwidth charges) ...

... and the fact that we have 10gbps connectivity through he.net ...

It's possible that we would be a good fit.

You fire up a 10TB account for $400/mo and you issue s3cmd commands, over SSH, on your rsync.net account, which "pulls" the data from S3, at pretty much whatever speed Amazon can throw at us.[2]

Email us.

Who are you quoting there? Certainly not me. I merely said that I'm sad. Not that certain people should be banned from speaking.

Also, the reality of climate change isn't a "point of view" any more than saying that "the earth orbits the sun" is a point of view.
I agree that using binding to avoid passing arguments is a bad design. That is not the only use of binding or more generally dynamic/special vars.

Clojure has naive implementations of pmap, send, send-off & future. They're useful in the REPL, but you need to understand their shortcomings before using in would-be production code. Promise & delay have limitations, but are not so hamstrung as former functions.

Even if you don't expect any function to preserve meta, metadata is still useful. E.g., I've used it on a compiler to provide compiler tracing and decompilation.

Component is not essential. It helps if you're accustomed to OO languages. It's arguably better than the procedural style of with-redefs & bindings.

As amazing as core.async is, I am not a fan. I'd rather use queues, logs or an actor library.
I don't know why anyone would expect it to be another way. I don't mind Apple's walled garden, but still, it's a walled garden and this restriction fits pretty well with the shrewd concept of that garden.

Related: Amazon restricts sellers in their site's (not app) marketplace from sending links to an external website, for fear of letting someone buy a product through another site. When I was selling books on Amazon for a book store, we'd get many requests through Amazon from customers asking to see our store's website, or asking if they could visit our store, and I learned pretty quickly that the only answer I could give and not get into trouble with Amazon was "I'd like to answer that but Amazon doesn't allow me to". Sometimes if I were feeling bold, I'd suggest that the customer google our store's name for more info.
You are being too absolutist. Nothing is "harmless".

I agree with you... as with any choice, an individual should try to compare the pros & cons of any decision.

My argument would be, if a group happens to be "self-medicating" or simply "getting high", is marijuana not one of the better drugs for that purpose?

Yes, drugs (the kind that make you feel good) are probably not something we should encourage, but if it must happen, marijuana is perhaps the best choice. Let's assume abstinence is impossible.
If you implement that, would you consider:

> If you purchase GitLab.com Bronze Support you can email support directly for timely, personal and private answers. This costs $9.99 per user per year for next-business-day response time and is available in packs of 20 users.

Reducing the pack size to 10 and improving the rate limit for paid accounts?

I don't mind paying for GitLab.com, I just don't want to pay $200/year for it. ;)
This does not sound like point of view, just a generic, corporate style message that does not address the issue in any way.

Rewarding only new customers is mobile phone operators style bite that decreases value of the brand and product. In this situation hosting company knows its not easy to move the servers to different host (at most cases) and uses that as an advantage to milk the customers more.

If they ever would actually release promo on their anniversary or something and give $5 to all registered members, they would get more good press than they could have ever dream of.
I'll look into that! Thanks.

To be fair, meditating would probably really help with the stress of having a newborn. I just can't imagine doing it right after she wakes up and is hungry and possibly covered in whatever came out of her at night. The idea of a stable, repeatable routine largely goes out the window when you've got a young kid, because they can and will interrupt it.

I'm usually a bit skeptical of bullet point advice like this as reading it always seem like self-evident truism; I think people have to really experience it in order to understand its proper depth. But I'm glad that self-compassion is mentioned here because it's not preached very often and prob less intuitive. When I realised about it in one eureka moment (I know!) almost immediately I could have more respect for myself and found it much easier to forgive personal flaws and mistakes. So if you ever find yourself kicking and loathing over something, do a mental "There, there" patting on your head! You'll begin to see life in a much more whimsical, Woody Allen way :)
I think a more likely result is that when confronted with a choice between what people see and what the computer tells them they will believe the computer.

Intel Announces Restructuring Initiative to Accelerate Transformation [pdf]
It's not just record highs that are breaking the records by a few degrees, it's that the records are being broken by 10F. It's one thing to have a warm snap, quite another to take it to a whole new level. I mean, 80s is something SEA might see for a few days in July. Well, used to be, anyway.

Yeah, yeah, weather!=climate; sit down, Captain Pedantic, I'm making a point here. As one who has walked this earth for over 50 years, I've observed that records of course are broken fairly regularly, but not with the frequency I see recently. Seems like every week I wake up to a new record, whether it's monthly, seasonal, or just today. It's a trend? Is climate change real? Dunno, not a climate scientist. But it sure seems like things are getting warmer, not just today, but generally.
That's interesting, so within apps (like a Podcast app), you can download things that are greater than 100mb. I can see how if you try to download podcasts straight from the store, you might find that limiting, but there are plenty of work arounds that you get used to.

Right now, the only content in this article is "Developing...".
I'm not a YC company but will share one man's opinion about Azure. We started using it because we have one piece of software in our stack that only runs on Windows, so we have a Windows VM and a couple Linux VM's running everything else. We're early in the life of the company so we're pretty much just using it for basics, but as a platform it's been fine. My dev ops guy seems to have few complaints on a day to day basis.

The one area we've consistently had real issues is with static IP persistence and VM location. At times, between our portal and an RDP session I've seen up to 3 different IP's for the same VM. Our VM's invariably lose their static IP's during reboots, which is a real nightmare because some of our vendors require IP white listing. We also can't seem to confirm that our servers are geographically where they're supposed to be. If we try to geolocate a server in US-West, we variously see it in other parts of the country, or even the world.
I strongly suspect that promotion has terms controlled by DigitalOcean and not GitLab.

You'd probably get more mileage at complaining to DO than you would to GitLab.

But then, what is the point of foo being associated with the class of bar?

Multiple dispatch screams for the abolishment of methods as properties of objects, in favor of generic functions.

Youc an still have the syntactic sugar obj.foo(arg), but it basically just translates to foo(obj, arg) where foo is a generic function not associated with foo's class in any way, and obj and arg have equal status.

This generic function is what has methods.
Yeah, I know what you mean. Existing customers are left in the dark, which is definitely not a great feeling as a paying user of DO.

The main issue is that people expect the modern web to behave more like an application, which generally requires client side code. JS is not the only thing to blame, as some CSS can cause the graphics card to switch from 2D to 3D, causing a vast increase in power consumption.

It would be much better of there was a good way to have the server issue partial updates of the DOM in response to user action without needing JS glue to make it happen.

Web developers can do this now if they don't need to easily react to user input. They can use HTTP multipart messages and slowly stream in HTML as needed. This is also fairly buggy in current browsers as websites stopped using it ever since XMLHttpRequest came out.

According to you "we should expect increasingly warm temperatures." Your own words.

There are predictions that global warming will cause droughts, floods, water and food shortages, mass migrations of dangerous species, ocean acidification, and sea level changes that threaten millions of people.

So, documenting the fact that every year the Earth is getting warmer should remind us all that we should come up with SOME ways to act to protect ourselves and our fellow man from those problems.

SOME people advocate fighting global warming directly. Whether or not they believe it's caused by mankind in the first place.

But you "really don't see the point" in discussing... ANYTHING... about global warming?

"Another climate change story on HN where the top comment is a denier citing logical fallacies about how statistics and science work."

You don't have to be a "denier" to be annoyed by hearing that the "most (X) ever" is based on ~150 years of observations.

Plenty of well meaning, properly liberal, progressive thinkers that you would (presumably) approve of are also annoyed by this.

It's a reasonable comment and a reasonable sentiment.

Don't let your emotional attachment to the "us vs. them" narrative or your addiction to righteous indignation blind you to the simple (and obvious, non-controversial) objection (the parent) has.
