Why is there no official support? Don't you already pay for the license for the hardware decoder?
There we go. That a good example of the kind of issue I was talking aboug. A much more realistic one, too. Of course, we're talking about registration rather than just authentication. Their authentication numbers are probably much higher and such are easy to HW accelerate.
My main objection is always readability. Sure, it is nice when I am writing code and on top of my head I know the type of each variable, but when I am reading code, this becomes nightmare for lack of type information.
> If you want to actually solve this for 1099ers, your going to have to do more than just what works for a subset of users; and supporting checks absolutely needs to be on your roadmap at some point, at minimum. Otherwise... I don't think you really have any sympathy or understanding of the very field that you're trying to solve a problem for.

Totally agree here. We're working on getting some folks running on the current build & making sure it's stable, but we've already identified a couple options for remote check capture to be included when we get to building out native mobile. It's definitely key to serving a large portion of the total market.

The bottom line is that any large-ish company who has a consumer-oriented product is paying for positive social media coverage. Even small ones try, as part of someone's job. The big guys just outsource it.

I expect one-third to one-half of anything positive I read about anything on the internet is bought-and-paid-for. I guess I should assume a portion of anything negative is also bought-and-paid-for by competing interests.

We invented the first, truly open and flat, egalitarian communication medium in the history of mankind, and then destroyed it within 20 years. Twenty billion web sites, and nothing exists except Amazon, Ebay, Google, YouTube, Facebook, and Twitter. Good job, corporations of America. I miss the web of '94.

EDIT: Also, I have no problem whatsoever believing that Reddit is a veritable playground for companies to exercise their "reputation management." It's pretty clear that their moves in recent years were precisely to allow deep pockets to game their systems to their benefit. I think Reddit and most of their top-posters are being completely hypocritical in claiming that the system isn't stacked in favor of whoever is paying them.
At GitLab we try to cherish our contributors. Every month we celebrate a most valuable contributor https://about.gitlab.com/mvp/

We try to ship great new features in our open source version every month that you can use for free on your server and on GitLab.com

EDIT I can't comment for DigitalOcean, what follows is my personal opinion.

I think it is great that DigitalOcean is willing to both sponsor the Runners for GitLab.com and offer promotion codes. Although I understand with your wish for promotion codes for existing customers I also understand their decision to only apply this to new customers in order to make this cost effective.

I hope that as an existing DigitalOcean customer you enjoy the benefits of their cost-effective servers, quick boot time, great UX, and the templates and tutorials that they keep updating.
The thing is when it gets unusually warm everyone cries climate change and when it gets unusually cold it's completely dismissed. That's what OP is pointing out
Your use of the suspiciously specific phrase "direct subsidies" suggests that you already know that coal receives plenty of government subsidies and that if those were removed, and coal had to account for the damage it does, then yes it would just happen.
>but part of me believes that if it were any publisher other than Google or Adobe, acceptance of an app that implemented its own widgets and UI contrary to the uniform look of iOS apps would be on the whims of the reviewer.

There are like 300.000 apps on the App Store with their custom UI contrary to iOS look -- including truly hideous items.
I noted that BBC jumped on the "Putin's comrades corrupt" at the same time that RT jumped on "Cameron's father corrupt" at the same time when the Panama papers were released.

Which is sad. The BBC used to be better than RT.

Hyper Vision: The Untold Story of Magic Leap
Something most people don't know about HoloLens: the holograms stay where you put them indefinitely. So if you put a browser window on a wall in your bedroom and come back after a week, it will be exactly where you left it.
I understand what you're saying about making more work for yourself (when a big selling point of flexbox is that it will simplify your layout code). But, there are some situations where flexbox lets you achieve things you can't otherwise do. (Some vertical centering situations; making equal height sibling divs; etc)

I tend to wait a long time before I take up new browser features, but as of 2016 I've decided that flexbox has enough support. As long as I have some kind of fallback for IE8-10 (usually "display: inline-block" or some basic floating/clearing does the trick).
> this is starting to feel a bit like a troll guarding a bridge, forcing every one to pay up to walk across.

Starting? This has been the way Apple does business for over a decade now. For years they charged people just for the privilege to develop software on their own device.
We got caught with this when developing an app... It was really annoying going back and forth with the reviewers until they accepted the app (even links to the website without linking to the pages where people can purchase the app was forbidden).
I've spent long enough investigating this heavily that I feel like I should dole out advice. And I say "investigating" as something light and fluffy when in reality I normally take a unnaturally healthy obsession over researching and learning about new areas.

To me I think about "investing" as trying to guarantee a return over the long haul. All the smart evidence points to taking a strategy that links you to index funds. This is what I ended up doing in terms of carving up my investments https://www.bogleheads.org/wiki/Three-fund_portfolio

When I started this though what I actually, of course, wanted to know more about was the sexier, potentially much higher return end of "picking stocks". This is still sexy to me, and I still get inclinations to pick stocks every now and again, particularly in the tech sector where I feel like I have an edge. But as I've done dummy investments in the past, the market has bitten me in lots of unexpected ways. General market downturns, edgy sentiment around quarterly earnings, bad product releases etc. etc. So now I call this what it is: high stakes gambling. I do play, but with money I'm ok losing. The kids college fund goes uses the three fund strategy described above making heavy use of index linked funds.
Our planned price point rolling out of beta will be $9.99 monthly, which puts you right in the $120 annual range as you mentioned.

And you're absolutely right, we don't remove the need to have a CPA, we DO, however, reduce the time you need to interact with your CPA and make it really easy for them to do their job. Given the hourly rate of my CPA, I've paid for Painless if I can reduce his work by almost an hour. We're finding that CPAs and freelancers alike are really digging what we've built thus far.

All in all, this is a product to help people like us solve the same problems we've run into over the years.
What "(anti)trust"? This is a single company.
If you figure out how to hash 1000x more efficiently than other people and put that into practice without sharing your knowledge then you can cheaply get and maintain a hashpower supermajority.

(I'm not saying this is likely, just more likely than finding a large gold asteroid.)
That's as related as being shocked that the https lock isn't green on all Google properties. It's just a mixed content warning.
You ignored his central point (that a morning routine helps set his focus for the day), and latched on to perhaps the least important piece of information in his post (the specific amount of sleep that works for him).

If you really feel the need to disagree, you might suggest better activities or make a compelling case that focus is considered harmful.
Drawing programs such as Photoshop and Corel Painter can do it (in fact they tilt the window you paint into while keeping menus etc. straight which is what one wants them to do.) I guess it's a bit harder to do in one's program than it ought to be though, especially with the stellar hardware support provided by the cheapest integrated GPU.
Good suggestion, if this gets abused we'll look at ways to prevent this, limiting the number of runner hours per user account is one of the ways we're thinking about.
I figured not... which is why we've never made an app anyway. Fair is fair
I've done a lot of foss bug triaging and I found that tags are essential to managing incoming bugs.

Have lots of tags/labels and tag every bug as soon as they are filed with at the very least a basic component (this is where machine learning could help a lot). Unlabeled bugs tend to get lost; labeled bugs can be looked at by someone who's familiar with the area (and relabeled if needs be).

If your product is very popular make sure to tag support questions and similar as soon as possible with their own label as well.
I have nothing to add but what a great post.
'anyone who says anything contrary to my point of view shouldn't be able to put their opinion forward!'
Why don't they just drop in the new gen (6) intel cpus? Or did they?
I can understand that you feel this is unfair.

Here's our point of view:

Apple manages their perception by attempting to make poor user experiences impossible.

This means people never see the edge cases and perceive them as 'faster' or more reliable. Solely because they prevented the user from downloading a large file over a spotty cellular connection.
> I don't get your line of thinking. You are condoning their actions because they own the platform? It's their garden, they can do whatever, so we just stop talking about it?

Feel free to talk about it, but the outrage seems eminently artificial, especially given these guidelines are years old for the most part.

> Can we then do the same for, I don't know Korea, Middle east and the like? It's their land, they can do whatever with human rights. Why talk about it?

Don't you think there's a slight difference between living in "I don't know Korea, Middle east and the like" and deciding to develop for ios?

As you note, you have the freedom to not buy apple devides, to not use them, and even more so to not develop for them, you're not exactly stuck between whoever's running the place and whatever "big boy" nation has decided today was good weather for an airstrike.
I use self-hosted gitlab as my primary CI and love it. Setting up CI runners is still too complicated (maybe because I use the gitlab docker image and there's no compose support). drone.io seems to have better support for deploying & cleaning up images, but I'm sure gitlab will get there.
Ask HN: Are There SEO Secrets That Work or Is It Just Common Sense?
Hillary Clinton profits directly from oil companies. She can say what she likes on her website, but her entire presidential campaign seems bent on doing the exact opposite. She is in favor of creating new technologies and building new infrastructure that will increase our greenhouse gas output. She is in favor of investing our time and money into creating new oil and gas energy systems.

Her campaign finances are a good indicator of how she will act if she is elected - much better than what her website says right now, or at any time. If she wants to really stand behind what that page says, she should stand up and say:

"Oil companies are destroying our planet's life and our health here in the USA. I will no longer take money from them. I will no longer vouch for new oil technologies."

And then she should do those things. Until then, her website is probably full of lies and I do not trust her word at all.
There's a fine line between critiquing and trolling.

> I wish they would just get rid of the FISC. It only serves to create an illusion that the executive is being checked by the legislative branch. Basically, it's a loophole in the Constitution.

This bit here is a good start of a conversation. I could ask you about more detail, references, what people could do to diminish The Bad Thing, a call-to-action could ensue... but...

> I understand that our government doesn't give a shit about the Constitution so let's just stop pretending.

... this part invalidates every good point you might have had by saying that no, what has been said is a blasé comment made on an internet forum.

Keep your critiques emotion-free for best effect.
Because idiots without a 10GB data plan, or idiots WITH a 10GB data plan on data roaming will go and download apps and then cry about the charges.
Each account is a separate, FDIC insured account held with Lincoln Savings Bank. Your account is your account, there is no money pooling done. Painless 1099 is a front end to that account to let you do various things automatically and easily.

Does that make sense? I suppose technically just like your accountant could steal your money because they have access to your accounts there's some risk but not really.
I also have a 10GB/month data plan, on Vodafone UK. It costs GBP £46 (USD $65) per month over 24 months, including a 20% discount [1]. It came with a 'free' 128GB iPhone 6, 2 years of Spotify and 6 months of Netflix.

I still run an Air (mid 2011) with 4GB of RAM and 256GB. Still great for browsing, lots and lots of text (Word and FadeIn), lots of Adobe Premiere editing on the go and occasional Photoshop and After Effects. I've been eyeing for a new laptop for quite some time now, but I am not in a hurry. This thing just keeps going and I can't justify new purchase yet.
I think on FB, celebs can follow normal people without them appearing as their followers (can anyone confirm this??) This means that power moves up the chain, but not necessarily down it (you lose the bragging rights.) What sort of company culture would do that?
You're making a lot of absolute statements that are demonstrably false.

>> You will never, ever beat the market by making smart trades.

How do you define "smart" trades? There are people and firms which consistently beat the S&P 500 after fees and trade commissions on a timeline of 20+ years without using insider trading. What would this be called, other than "smart" trading?

>> Active funds employ hundreds or thousands of people who work more than full-time to support an operation of systematically studying investment opportunities and exploiting inside information to beat the market, and even they don't beat the market.

Most do not, but the fact that most peoples' companies don't IPO doesn't mean it's impossible. Firms like RenTec consistently beat the market, and they have less than 300 employees total.

>> Making targeted trades costs money and will do no better than index funds anyway.

I agree with advice advocating index funds for beginners, but it's not fair to an individual's potential aspirations to claim that active trading is simply ineffective. It's extremely difficult, but that's wildly different from being ineffective.
To be fair, it's probably more reasonable to judge it in the stream of epistolary / didactic literature than purely narrative. I remember Defoe's Crusoe and Stoker's Dracula not having particularly inspiring characters by modern standards either.

It is curious about the divergence between engineers and non-engineers. If he ever writes another novel in the same vein, it'd be interesting to collaborate with another author and have a richly-characterized political story on Earth contrasted by a more "engineerly-characterized" space story.

(Keep meaning to watch film, have not gotten to)
People will notice soon enough, and they'll switch to a different algorithm. It takes time for the difficulty to go up, it only resets every 2016 blocks and is limited.
That gets less important each passing year as connections get faster, even on mobile. I agree you can't restart uploads though without multi part support.
Programming
Will someone tell me the right programming language to learn first. It seems like there is a new one popping up each day.
5 months. I started with meditating and running for 5 minutes each and increased it every two weeks or more whenever I felt like it. As mentioned doing 15 minutes of each now.

Got my dad to do the same. I actually made him start with just 1 minute of each. He is upto 10 minutes after a month. Plus has started weight training. He is 60.

I guess the main takeaway is do the smallest possible interval you can ( have no excuses to not do) and don't beat yourself about it. Build it up gradually
To me it is one of the shows where each episode is slightly better than the previous one. Great finale, now I need the second season.

It is also a complex history that rewards repeated views.
Eat what? Other people? Not sure what you're getting at, because I'm paying my membership dues, and I'm quite sure you're not living on less than $1/day either.
Since you _italicized_ I guess I better answer!

The tutorial is ostensibly about flexbox, not about CSS precompilation. So, if the you happen not to know SCSS, then it’s obfuscated.

Er, then it’s _obfuscated_.
This can work, but properly shutting down not only is for syncing the filesystem but it properly terminates applications. I.e. editors might remind you to save changed files or the desktop environment could store its state.
Away from desktops some server applications can be graceful (I.e. instead of terminating a HTTP request while processing active requests could be finished, but new requests by the load balancer be rejected, databases can clean their state etc.)
I could be wrong here but I think this has been in place for a while now (starting around the same time the whole Amazon debate started).
Cost of US Wars, Then and Now - Infographic
Interesting. How do porn magazines, fleshlights, etc ship?
This is not new. This was put in place in 2011. This is why the Kindle app (for example) does not allow you to buy books in the app, and the Amazon app can order physical goods but not downloads.

Has anyone heard of similar abuses by Juniper Networks?
I was being generous and assuming they meant "every time a user logs in, a software engineer thinks about security" because the alternative is literally meaningless.

To elaborate, statements like "every time you shake hands with someone, a volcano has erupted" are equally, trivially, true. They just don't mean anything-- anything at all. There exists some volcano which has erupted. Therefore any time you shake hands with someone, eat a meal, go to sleep, push a button, etc... that statement is still true, just like it was and would be with or without your entire existence. At which point you're just saying words to hit some word count or something. Or maybe allude to some unstated connection... ?
How warm the plant has been many millions of years in the past is mostly irrelevant for the problem we are facing.

The problem we are facing is that in the last 100 years the temperature have constantly been rising, and the rise seems to even speed up. The consequences of this is at minimum a major shift of the ecological systems. If we are unlucky, even the collapse of some.

In any case we are facing severe consequences for human civilization as we know it. Even if we "just" lose cities like New York it would be bad, but whole countries like Bangladesh with over 100 Million of population are facing flooding.
Probably more likely that a lot of people just wanted something different after years of working hard at lab.

Plus it's amazon, you stick around you are probably gonna end up doing oncall ops BS.
> I know that. There is the possibility though to have a human readable EULA side by side with the lawyer readable one. That would actually be fair towards the users.

I'm guessing the lawyers would reject that for fear of what'd happen in case of conflicts between the "lawyer" version and reasonable interpretations of the "human-readable" version.
I expect it's very frustrating to see employees being given an insufficient computer. That's not Apple's fault though. (I mean unless they're misrepresenting things somehow, which I don't think they are.) Apple still has, last I heard, some great Pro machines that support far more wired connectivity options.

If a business buys the one when they need the other, or fails to replace broken cables, then that business is at fault.
It occurred after sending the MMS, that this page could simply be an elaborate attempt to flood some guy with random pics.

I would recommend buying a 5 digit MMS number, to add some more obvious legitimacy to the service.
I admit that's a possibility, but be very careful and very limited in your domain. Stupid shit is wildly successful all of the time, and brilliant offerings fail all of the time.

The market still hasn't figured out that SharePoint sucks and enterprise lock-in from vendors like Oracle is predatory and bad for business. Amazing achievements like NeXT and the Amiga never made money. Gimmicks like the Amazon Echo and the Apple Watch ship millions of units. It's really hard to tell what the market will do.
Bot capitalism will fail
Great to hear.

> Cisco’s attempt to try to leverage the Wassenaar discussions into legal immunity for itself is unfounded and should fail.

More like attempts to get a civil penalty in the United States for business in another country should fail
