This, like basically all terminology/jargon distinctions, will be community-specific. This particular distinction is idiomatic primarily in the C family (C, C++, Java, ad n.), primarily inheriting from the declaration/definition distinction in the ancestral language. But jargon has dialects---some people will have seen declaration/definition above and now be itching to correct me with 'prototype/implementation'. In other development communities (say, lispers), the terms may be different, the distinction may not exist or a different one might take priority (like, say, car/cdr). As others have said, what matters is clarity of communication, and part of that is always learning the idiom and norms of your community. Note: in many cases there might be a published standard (eg. K&R C, or Academie Francais French), which can inform usage, but not necessarily prescribe it.

Some advice:

+ My understanding is that the Hacker News ranking algorithm penalizes posts that aren't links to keep it from being used as a blog. So it might be better to write up a blog post about the book and submit that instead.

+ My observation is that book authors who write useful informative blog posts about their topic [rather than obvious promotional collateral] tend to be better received by the HN community, though like everything else, those posts stand I high chance of passing mostly unnoticed.

+ My observation is that external surveys rarely receive much consideration from the HN community relative to interesting blog posts.

+ Samples preceding the email harvesting would probably stand a better chance of peeking the vistor's interest in the book...showing potential readers that the book is worth reading is worth considering.

Good luck.
Stacks of $100 bills are actually pretty effective at wiping away guilt and plebeian sympathies.
For me, the lack of readability isn't necessarily about the terseness, per se. It's about trying to keep track of the stack in my head at all times, and the "unnatural" order that the "keywords" appear in.

<condition> IF <consequent> ELSE <alternative> THEN

is something I still struggle with, even after studying forth (via Leo Brodie's "Starting Forth" and "Thinking Forth") for about 3 months. Something like this I have no trouble with:

IF <condition> THEN <consequent> ELSE <alternative>

but the addition of the (optional) local variables helps me to keep track of the stack more easily (if you could even consider it the stack at that point).

In general, I don't have much trouble with RPN, but a few of the constructs in forth have eluded me...

I've discovered C9 while viewing coders working via Livecoding.tv.

It's highly interesting how very young developers are using C9, naturally, to code.

Something great is happening behind this behavior, it's much more than an online IDE. It feels friction less to develop a website totally online for this kind of developers.

Also, for example, I can think many people using PC's on cybercafes prefering C9 to develop.

I really recommend to watch it live to understand it.
Well that’s nice and dandy, problem is Google has 70% of the market in search. Which doesn’t bond well with transparency and fair use if they’re promoting their products over competition’s.
Its really awesome that this project continues to endure. The code base is top notch and the maintainers are committed to the highest level of quality.

Thanks for the response. I don't really think me not dropping law school as a whole is a good indicator of how much I care about the idea. I just think it means I'm not delusional.

There are a ton of reasons my idea may/may not work, and it wouldn't have anything to do with how good the idea actually is. It's just that since this isn't a video game, I actually have to proceed in way that actually makes sense, balancing both realistic possibilities and my current outlook.

nullc,

I'll take your word for it that Blockstream will never run a Lightning network hub.

We understand how the Lightning network works and you also have to admit that it has the potential to centralize into a few large hubs -- even if they aren't by Blockstream -- that will be able to provide the lowest transaction costs in order to keep track of user transaction data.

The problem with Lightning is that it's really far off, and it might not even work.

Meanwhile the network is breaking at the edges while we wait for this pie-in-the-sky solution. Increasing the blocksize is the best approach and it's safe to do as a hard-fork. The delay and push back from CoreDevs is what makes people not trust you. We've had enough "my transaction didn't confirm" posts.

> Am I comparing prices on the internet? Should McDonald's care, or have control over what happens inside my smartphone, or what I can see?

> Am I spoofing my (smartphone) location to pretend I am in fact inside a burguer king, and indeed seeing the Augmented Reality Giant Whooper they have, because I enjoy playing their minigames, but prefer to eat at McDonalds?

I spent weeks trying to stamp out a bug that turned out to be a signal integrity issue between the processor and DRAM. It was horrible. The bug would only happen after about 30 minutes and looked like memory corruption. I spent tons of time looking for an interrupt corrupting memory.

In Corporate America, this sort of interaction is completely routine, especially when talking with a single business analyst who's supposed to be representing a whole team. Much of the time, the BA imposes their own requests on-top of their team's. While that's fine, much of the time that is spent on the requirements gets wasted because, after showing off the project to the rest of the business team, they have their own requests that refute what the BA wanted in the first place!

While this would all be solved if requirements were decided as a team, much of the time that's not the case. Alas.

I'm watching a Thiel speech right now on YouTube [0]. To be honest, the only perception I have of Thiel as a public speaker is that "Silicon Valley's" (on HBO) Peter Gregory was partly based on him. He's a better speaker than his HBO caricature, but he doesn't seem like someone who has been groomed to be a public speaker. I'm impressed that he's chosen to put himself in the spotlight here. Even if he just recites the Emancipation Proclamation word-for-word, he is going to be relentlessly grilled by the political punditry. He already was, for being a Silicon Valley-based Trump delegate, and then of course for the Gawker lawsuit. I don't agree with all of his politics but at least he's throwing himself into the public fray even though there's virtually nothing for him to gain personally (unless he's prepping for a run for governor or U.S. Senator).

In the U.S., monopolization is defined by the FTC as the ability to prevent competition:

https://www.ftc.gov/tips-advice/competition-guidance/guide-a...

It's not at all clear that anything Google does prevents competition. Indeed, if you google "search engines", Google itself doesn't even appear on the first page. I get DogPile, DuckDuckGo, Bing, and Wikipedia as my top four hits. Then there's something about "say goodbye to Google: 14 alternatives". If I search for "webmail", gmail is the eighth hit. Based on my 16-odd years of daily use of Google, it hardly seems as though Google is trying to limit or downplay the competition.

The EU complaint appears to be that Google displays a pattern of promoting its own products in searches. I doubt they can prove that; it's likely that different results are promoted based on algorithms that target user preferences and history, not an evil plan to make the world buy Google services. Why would Google do that? It's a stupid thing to do and they already have a dominant position as you say, so they don't need to. No one says "let me bing that for you". No one says "just look it up on yahoo". Google has the dominant mindshare and they simply can sit back and enjoy being the success that they are.

Yeah, I think the choice of keywords in that case isn't great for the structural order that they have to appear in

<condition> THEN <consequent> ELSE <alternative> IF

would probably be a better order, in the same structure, keeping the same keywords.

I don't understand e-sports teams. They're not representative of a geographical region and a "team" can actually have players on multiple games. It's like if the New York Yankees were just the Yankees and also played football, soccer and basketball. I don't understand the convention for how spectators are intended to root for a team. I get that this thing in regular sports for rooting for the team closes to you is arbitrary, but at least it's clear fun way to be a part of it.

Also in esports a lot of the event hype feels manufactured and forced.

I do like watching esports though, I just think there's so much room for improvement in the whole way the thing is presented.

One of my few childhood memories is of being in a car with a baby sitter, she used to listen to new-wave, it was the 80's. To this day I'm still a fan of that type of music, and even the new music I like tends to have an 80's synth feel to it. I don't really remember my parents listening to much music when I was a kid.
Ive owned both dlink and a dropcams. The dlink cameras are absolute shit. Often disconnecting from wifi. Unable to handle the bandwidth to upload good quality video. Firmware and software along with admin web panel is absolute junk, poorly translated as if foreign contractors made it as hasty as they could. Dlink cameras are also cheap plastic crap and easily topple over. Dropcam has worked great for me even with Nest taking over. I have a server that I connected hackable cameras to, but multiple 1080p streams is not the easiest to handle affordably. As a hacker, even dropcam offers a pretty decently priced service for peace of mind. Dont get dlink tho whatever you do.

EDIT: I should mention I even bought the mydlink Camera Video Recorder (DNR-202L) and what a heap of shit. Clogged up my LAN somehow, despite the fact that dropcams have 1080p and don't have any effect. Cameras often lost connection to the DNR-202, and the quality that it could support had to be severely downgraded. D-links solutions are atrocious. Please, save yourself the money and time. The dlink stuff is cheap for a reason -- and well, not all of it is even cheap. I bought the wide angle rotating cam and it ran me $200. And it was just as terrible as the little dinky $50 dlink cameras. Ugh.
Why does anyone ever get surprised by this? This is the "do not be evil but you can be sly" way. This is what MBAs call synergies!
If Google's search results didn't match user requirements, users would go elsewhere. Google shouldn't be hamstrung because the competition isn't up to it.
Interesting. I find the same thing with music itself. I often hate the albums I end up liking the most the first few times I listen to them. Possibly it's because those artists I make the effort to listen to when I don't like their new albums at first are evolving their sound rather than trying to rehash old successes.

Anyway, my first impression of new music often doesn't match what my later opinion will be after listening more.
Also, I never felt the "meh I could do that" sentiment or alluded that it's easy. I agree, wholeheartedly, that it's an incredibly important part of the whole thing.

I'm not arguing whether they should or shouldn't have such a market share. For example, in Greece where I live Google's share must be north of 80% and that's fair because in localized search their results are far better than the competition's. I'm just stating the obvious. If you have a dominant share in a market the way you operate must be as transparent as possible.
Despite the clickbaity headline about "musical tastes", there is some real information here.

"In their experiments, McDermott and his colleagues investigated aesthetic responses to music by playing combinations of notes to three groups of people: the Tsimane’ and two other groups of Bolivians that had experienced increasing levels of exposure to Western music. The researchers recorded whether each group perceived the notes as pleasant or unpleasant to hear. They tested consonant chords, which are common in Western and many other musical cultures, as well as dissonant ones. (In ‘do re mi fa so la ti do’, for instance, the ‘dos’ are exactly an octave apart and are an example of consonant notes.)"

The question is whether there is some innate human preference for consonant or dissonant chords. These scientists concluded that preference for consonant or dissonant chords is influenced mainly by culture (not, say, genetics).
