I think your comment is confusing RC1 with RC2. RC1 was a debacle. And their go live license was not particularly generous [1]:

> Starting with the RC1, we are including a “Go Live” license ... [the] duration of this license for the RC1 last until the next release candidate or the completed release of ASP.NET 5 (called an RTM release) that is currently scheduled for Q1 2016.

So if you did choose to use RC1 in a production environment, you'd be unsupported as soon as the next RC or RTM occurred. You'd need to spend time upgrading your projects. Which means you're taking a gamble on the size of changes between RC1 and the next release.

I'm not so sure about the term 'green threads' but the internet was definitely around well before '95. There doesn't seem to be any mention of 'green threads' in available USENET archives before then, for instance. But if you know of one, anywhere, by all means, I'd love to hear about it.
I have been running a similar service for myself on my own exim mailserver for a couple of years now and very happy with it. Provided explanation on how to achieve this on my blog https://www.guidodiepen.nl/2013/02/catch-almost-all-in-exim-...
Whenever an address is receiving too much spam, I just blacklist it at the server level, ensuring I don't have to filter it anymore in my mail client since the server won't even accept it.

Have to say that it is always funny when a person asks for my email address and it confuses them when the address part before the @ sign contains their company name :) Often get the question whether I also work at the company or so.

> There is no such right. It is not a human right, nor is it something that you are intrinsically entitled to have.

I disagree with that. To the extent that any rights are "natural" or "human" (as opposed to all rights being creations of the government), I think copyright is entitled to that status more so than say rights in land. My back yard is something that was here before I was born and will be here after I die. I had nothing to do with its creation, and I just bought it from somebody who bought it from somebody who stole it from the Indians. How on earth do I have a greater, more fundamental, right to that than to something I created out of non-existence?

If you build a business, you build it on the back of government-educated workers commuting on government-built roads, etc. "You didn't build that" and whatnot. But we consider you to have a moral entitlement to own and control your business, without assuming society has any special right to it other than universal obligations like paying taxes. But creative works--while they are influenced by society to a degree--are to a much greater extent singular products of creation. But you want to say you don't have a moral entitlement to it?

> And no, the pre-release line doesn't really apply here. When you release RC2 with a Golive license and publicly state "you can be confident to use it in Production and we will support you" only to backtrack on it (days, weeks?) later then that's on Microsoft.

Where did they do that? Does .NET Core even have an RC2 or an RC1? Are you talking about ASP.NET Core? Where did they backtrack on the Golive license on ASP.NET Core RC2?

I don't think Microsoft has ever announced a release date for .NET Core, so why you were confident it would release at a particular point is confusing to me.

There's also never been a release date for ASP.NET Core. Certainly, RC2 took a lot longer than you would reasonably extrapolate from the speed between betas and RC1, but I don't see much support for the rest of your post in any announcements I've ever read.

Tell them to buy a factory that makes computers.

That's really the best way to do it; you have to own (or control) as much of the supply chain as you can. Not really practical if you're a private company who has to compete on thin margins, but not really that hard to imagine for a government.

As far as impracticality arguments: keep in mind that each government that maintains a nuclear arsenal (rogue/client states excepted) already has a completely captive technological supply chain, generally at least at a 1950s level, in order to manufacture the weapons in the first place. So if you wanted to build secure nuclear C2 systems, it would make sense to basically build them with the same degree of security, and using the same presumptively-secure supply chains, that are used to create the weapons themselves.
why were those not great times? Every open source project can be forked. Want to make MyC++Haxor3000 just fork LLVM and start adding the features you want. Same with python, JavaScript, and many other languages.

My understanding with Java is MS had signed a contract with Sun so there were other obligations. From a purely engineering POV though it makes total sense to extend. When I embed a language in my app (lua, JavaScript, whatever) the first thing I do is expose all my functionality.
Ask HN: Feedback on betting app idea
Hi all,

I have an idea for an app but I am not sure if something similar already exists or not (and if the whole idea makes sense).

My idea is about an app for betting among friends. Base case scenario:

- User A sends a bet proposal (ex: "Mercedes will win the next week F1 GP", "I am able to run for 20km", "Tonight I will drink 10 beers" etc.) to some of his contacts (let's say users B, C and D) and fix a bet price (ex: 1 $) and expiration time (ex: 2 days).
- Users B, C and D receive a notification about the proposed bet
- Users B and C accept the proposal and 1 $ is "blocked" form their account in addition to 2 $ from user A's account
- User D refuse the proposal
- Bet expires and each user is called to vote for the result of the bet
- Users A, B and C vote that the bet is lost by A
- 2 $ are removed from A's and 1 $ is added to both B and C's account

This a very broad and draft workflow. Do you think it makes sense?
That was a nice tutorial! I did something similar too before creating Mailhero.

And regarding the confusion about stuff before the @-sign: I have gotten "Wow, you work here?!" a million times too... :)

You're correct. My mistake.
It seems like the attitude "If you don't closely follow systemd development then you are an idiot and deserve what you get" is the most common. You shouldn't expect thousands and thousands of users to have to reconfigure to maintain existing, standard behaviour.
This reminded me of another, related task that comes up a lot in machine learning and IR: searching by vectors (rather than keywords). Aka k-NN (k nearest neighbors) search.

Just as with fulltext search, there's no shortage of clever approximate algorithms for kNN vector search (with the additional caveat of the "curse of dimensionality").

And just as here, without careful tuning, a well-optimized brute force search blows most "clever", widely popular kNN implementations out of the water on large datasets [1]. There's certainly something to be said for simplicity and good "systems engineering".

Hi Adam,

We're in constant contact with SFC, we also talked to Bradley about OpenSource RhodeCode.

We picked AGPL since this is what we believed would be the best option for us. RhodeCode 4.X is totally different project now, and as for Kallithea, we will see how this works out. We're of course open to cooperate with other projects.
As an employee, I would advise positioning yourself not to be the one that gets hurt. For example, if you want to be an entrepreneur, then be one and start a company (ideally with other people's money). But if you want to be a programmer, then focus on that. Work in interesting places with interesting people. Build your career based on the work you are doing. If the work you are doing is crap, do everything in your power to move to a place where it is not crap.

The golden handcuffs are more handcuffs than gold. Ask for a reasonable wage and make sure you get it. Anything else is gravy. Understand when you join a start up that it might disappear under your feet and make sure you have a plan B. But, always, always make sure that you are building the career you want.

In startups I have seen so many people (employee #single-digit, usually) who get promoted out of the job they want to do. They hang around doing stuff they hate because, "It might be a big deal in a few years". If there is a downturn, then they are the first ones to be asked to work months (or years!) with no salary because, "I'm sure we can turn it around and they are giving me equity!"

Obviously, it's up to the person, but if I could sum up the antidote for the misery I've seen in my career: 1. Cash on the barrel head, 2. freedom to do good work, 3. interesting co-workers. As a programmer, I never ask for more (or less). (and seriously... if you miss payroll... I'll still be your friend, but I won't be working for you... sorry. See rule 1.)
These two anecdotes (parent and grand-parent) show that there are two ways to manage legacy systems: a mindful, efficient way and a wasteful, risky way. Come to think of it, those same two ways apply to any project, old or new. So it all really boils down to project management and corporate practices.

I agree with all the comments that say that legacy systems, government or corporate are not inherently, necessarily bad, inefficient, insecure, and in need of replacing.

I was thinking more along the lines of SIP tracing for customers, which happens much more frequently for tech support roles, at least in my experience. With a quad core and a single 1TB drive I was able to service 100s of GB a day of SIP with ~1s response times. Use a mix of brute force (for temporary log) then index in background.

The interactivity shifts quite a bit when you get close to "instant". Though I know some companies that are content with even 30s query times, but that's gotta limit flexibility.

Most doctors dont have the types of antibiotics memorized by heart either unless they work in a specialty or ER. There are cell wall destroyers, folic acid synthesis interruptors, protein synthesis disruptors, etc. [1]

Gone are the days where a doctor should be taken at his judgment 100% as if medicine is a black box enigma. The average HNer would be wise to google about their conditions and drugs they consume. A doctor can only remember so much - they are primarily valuable for their experience in hueristic diagnosis -- not for knowing everything medical and everything pharmacutical. It is wise to relinquish some responsibility to a professional but not all.

Most of medicine aside from surgical methods can be understood by a mildly intelligent person who cares enough, because of wikipedia and google, everything except actual experience is very accessible.

I dont see how your astonishment is anything other than misinformed hyperbole.

Even if they are sick, we shouldn't medicate them. Sick animals should be a loss ("too bad, you should've not let them get infected") because every other option creates resistant microbes that lead to human misery and death. Of course, even that wouldn't be a total loss; you can still turn the animals into pet food.

If we were serious about humanity's future, antibiotics would only be given in hospitals and all of your bodily waste would be incinerated until it no longer tests positive for antibiotics. You'd leave the hospital with a shaved head too, since hair may come to contain the antibiotics as it grows.
Forgive me, but I have only casually followed this. Perjury requires she falsify her testimony under oath, has there actually been a formal deposition from Clinton under oath?

Very much pleased to see you working on this. I've been thinking that Rust would make an excellent language for those of us that want to get a bit closer to C-like backed functions and such, but aren't really C programmers. While Rust has it's own learning curve to be sure and isn't magic, the compiler can save those of us familiar with less systemy languages from mistakes we wouldn't otherwise be sensitive to.

Often, the founders are permitted to embezzle the last 5-10% of the capital by walk away investors.
Sometimes, the founders own and profit from vendors to their venture, which dies.
Sometimes, a tiny, viable business is started within the venture, whose main business plan fails. The little business survives and feeds the founder and a few cronies.
Sometimes, the founder goes back to her lucrative university professorship which she was "on leave" from.

The founders never get hurt.

- Worst-case O(n) swaps.

Just because someone does not do to your liking (for whatever reasons) you are allowed to do as you please? Is this the philosophy behind your comment?

Or at least anyones liking and anyones doing things non the less (to not become too personal here).
Let me explain the analogy to you. In both scenarios you're in a public place communicating information to an intended audience. There is a good chance that some people outside of your intended audience will also get this information. You're accepting the risk that your coworkers may be on the site/at the next table and receive this information but if they aren't then they shouldn't have access to it.

In your first point you mention adjusting volume to restrict communication to your desired audience. OKCupid has privacy settings. Users adjusting their privacy settings would be analogous with adjusting volume in the restaurant. The people collecting data in this story created a fake account and used it to bypass the privacy settings. For your second point, it would be more like if you filled out a restaurant survey and saw your answers on an unrelated website like Reddit the next day.

Non-US businesses find it baffling that transparency is so extraordinarily low in the US. Even the smallest UK company has to publish information on fundraising and basic finances (admittedly, with quite a big lag). The same applies basically everywhere in Europe. Russia is in many ways far more transparent than the US for company data (both financials and ownership/funding).

Given the regulatory attitude to small business secrecy in the US, it's not at all surprising that companies can implode even when there is a lot of noise and publicity.

Typically the rationale for this though is to protect counterparties, not employees per se as the author suggests. (And also just that sunlight is the best disinfectant).

Hi,

As the CTO of Pointscene I would like to thank you so much for the time spent evaluating and writing your comments. We appreciate all the feedback we get very highly.

With Pointscene we are helping our users provide better service for their customers. For example we see a lot of new businesses providing drone data generated with commercial s/w e.g. Pix4D, Agisoft and Open Source projects e.g. OpenDroneMap [1]. Also a lot of terrestrial and airborne LiDAR data is finding it's way to new markets as no desktop s/w is required for the users.

We have a section for the supported formats and are adding more along the way [2].

As a way to show our thanks for your time I'd like to set you up with a full account. If interested - could you send me an email to jonne at pointscene.com ?
