Interesting; that does look like a certain type of sandwich popular in the EU. Where does the name come from?

I'd personally be looking for something like this;

> My personal experience does not support this.

My personal experience doesn't support this either. There are many different kinds of skill and it's really a management issue to find the right roles for people, and to lead them in a healthy, humane, productive, and profitable direction.

There is much to be said for being a solid programmer who can sketch out a system; there's also a lot to be said for being an average programmer who is great at taking direction and methodical. Most companies need both types of engineers.

The arguments used by people at certain tech companies are like saying "it's so hard to become President of the United States that anyone who becomes president is obviously the cream of the crop'.

Imagine if we said the same thing about doctors or lawyers, or really any other profession. We all know that such generalizations are total BS.
The beauty of the current style of headphone is that I don't have to remember to charge them.

I haven't had great luck with Bluetooth devices connecting reliably, every time, and at any rate, with the shitty batteries that device manufacturers use, I expect that I will be bricking more than one set of headphones very quickly, if I even bother buying them.
Thanks for explaining a use of using!
This may be a failing of mine or a regional thing, but what does this comment mean? I read it literally as saying that Apple has done what carriers want and has made iMessage to suit carriers. I suspect that this is the opposite of what is intended though, as iMessage disempowers carriers imho. How does culturestate's comment work?
Y Combinator picks 3 Indian startups for first time
Setting aside the why and wherefore; how would they block NoScript?
Yeah, deploying an ELK stack in docker in anything other than development is probably not a great idea anyway.

Specifically the elasticsearch piece. Elasticsearch uses a lot of memory for the jvm heap and also off heap, it needs a lot of resources. When it OOMs, you want to be able to easily check out whats happened, and recover the instance, on the same instance with ephemeral instance storage. You dont want to operate ES in a scheduled environment, unless you have scheduling rules that stick it to a single instance.

Elasticsearch aside, Kibana is fine for a docker container, its stateless and very little config. However, logstash config is more involved and not trivial, I still use CM for this, but would like to deploy it in containers in future using something like habitat perhaps...
The more time goes by the less crazy he seems. His goals may not be realistic but his predictions about the dangers of dependence on commercial software have been vindicated in many instances. And things might get much worse still if the trend towards authoritarian leadership in Western countries continues.
I'd be interested in having a chat. Recently decided to pause / shut down my startup where I did a pretty good job with the developing/designing, but marketing was definitely a weakness. So we could be a good combo. Email me at hnusername[0:4] at uchicago dot edu, or let me know how to get in touch with you.
I agree, I feel like this is becoming kotlin (not a bad thing) but the syntax is quite a divergence from es5+types less so with es6 but your sentiments are bang on

I wouldn't call these companies "high tier." They are big and have a lot of money but mainly rely on interns to keep their decades old cash cows going.
Interesting suggestion. I am not sure about it costing the same karma. The net effect will then be, that the threshold of acquiring 'downvoting power' will shift further upwards. For example, people who get to 501 karma, will have to wait to get to decent threshold (perhaps 550) to feel comfortable down voting even when they want to.

May be, they could just limit the downvotes per user, to just 10 per day or something like that, so that nobody can abuse it.

On a different note, not related to your comment, a feature request (and saying it here itself, just to have a single comment on this page):

1) I have always wanted to have some basic information about HN users, as I hover over their handles. As of now, I need to click that link into a new tab to see that. It could be a useful feature to have, @dang & @scott, while you are at it.

2) Have a separate humor upvote. Often some comments (e.g. [1]) make you LOL. But you can't do anything other than upvoting them, as reddit style 'LOL' comments are not allowed. I think, we can do with encouraging some humor here, if it can be managed.

I've known Andrew for a few years and what I love about this is how it reflects him as person: someone who loves bringing people together. Dependency CI seems to me to be a manifestation of that. Hopefully one effect of Dependency CI, if (when) it becomes popular is that it raises the bar for the stability of projects that other people depend on. We're all in this together. Keep up the great and inspiring work Andrew!
He has mentioned Mexicans, Syrians, Chinese, Iraqis.

Pretty sure he wasn't speaking positively of them.

He also sub-tweeted about rates of violence of blacks and whites.

Unlike the murata chip that doesn't take up any extra space, those things /would/ take up extra space in the phone. While I'm of the opinion that Apple could have fitted them in if they wanted to, it doesn't change the fact that there's no hardware based solution for FM radio on the iPhone.

I’ve been working on Dependency CI along with https://libraries.io, the service that powers it, in my spare time for the past few months, it’s great to finally get it out into the real world.

Dependency CI works like Travis CI but for the dependencies of your application, checking them for license and status issues every time you push to GitHub.

I've written a up a post on medium with more details: https://medium.com/@teabass/introducing-dependency-ci-e859fa...

It’s 100% free for open source projects and there’s a 14 day free trial for checking private github repositories too.

On some processor families, like for instance the MC68000 family of processors, the clr instruction always wastes at least one clock cycle reading the register being cleared before actually clearing it, which is why when you look at the assembler code for that processor family, you will rarely see the clr instruction being used:

http://www.easy68k.com/paulrsm/doc/trick68k.htm

common tricks to clear out a data register on the 68000 family in a performant way include:

moveq #0, d0 ; this works because zero can be expressed with only seven bits
eor.l d0, d0
sub.l d0, d0

and for the address register

sub.l a0, a0
eor.l a0, a0

Here's the problem with this tax (or however it's called): you're basically paying for some third party actions that you have no control over. Someone emits some electromagnetic radiation that you may or may not care about, but for some odd reason you have to pay for that. That feels... wrong.

Can't remember any other tax-like charges where one has to pay for something artificial that they could be completely unrelated to, yet don't have any control over.
I personally think there is a lot wrong with most eggs, bacon and sausages but let's not go into that.

Does it give you energy in the morning though? I notice that if I eat that I don't really feel all too energetic while if I eat high fiber and light (as in no fat or carbs) I usually don't even feel like lunch. Might be personal; people I know have that as well but that's anecdotal so i'm asking :) I don't know too many people who would eat eggs, bacon and sausage for breakfast often or at all.
The Grace Digital one. It works, although Apple has ruined me and the user interface on the box is worse than that on a microwave. There's a long list of complaints about it, but there isn't much alternative.

The category is wide open for someone to make one where, say, the remote actually works more than some of the time. :-( I don't know why this is such a hard problem.

This is one of the cases where the American perspective just gives us a convenient language for discussing something more universal. By an accident of history, the US constitution cements inside a legal document the result of debates and lobbying that was going on all over the western world at the time.

Others at the time were also discussing the propriety of IP, and eventually agreed in favour of a limited form of it. Over time, it got strengthened further.
This.

That's a question I often ask. From what I know, RMS got some money in the bank that allows him to live the way he chooses. That is : spare some of its time advocating and building the free software movement. He's also very charismatic (well, in its very own way, I must admit).

He basically incarnates one thing : there's no compromise. He proves his position by shutting him off the proprietary world. And that's super tough to do. If he ever used non free software, his uncompromising position would be weakened.

So, FSF needs to be able to replace that sort of, non compromising, super talented and really smart person.

Has anybody ever seen someone close to that ? Then only one I see is Eben Moglen (although its technical talent is not in IT)
Interesting, Brit here too. It's the second or third feature I looked for when buying my current phone (Acer) - camera, good battery, radio.

http://www.gsmarena.com/results.php3?nYearMin=2013&chkFMradi... shows about 2000 phones made in the last 3 years with FM radio that are available to buy; I selected "touchscreen" to loosely limit to smartphones.
Proprietary software would also exist without any copyright, people would just guard their trade secrets, obfuscate code and put it server-side more than they already do now. The free software movement uses copyright to protect the freedoms, it is not a "libertarian" movement and never claimed to be. It wants to ensure that programmers and users of software have the four freedoms that RMS has laid out in many talks.

Perhaps a BSD style license is what you personally prefer. RMS has argued against such licenses for decades. Even if you disagree with him, please don't blame him for being inconsistent or defending a view that is not thought through.

Also, if you do not like the GPL, then you should perhaps be consistent and not use GPL software at all.
It seems to be IDA, not sure what you meant by "the editor".

In Germany you used to have to pay the radio fee for owning a cell phone anyway. Recently they changed to a household model, now it doesn't matter whether you have a receiver or not.
I think it's worth pointing out that the works inspected here are generally between 100 and 300 years old and are not reflective in any way of the breadth of current practice. If you want to see counter-examples you could attend just about any contemporary art exhibition. Of course artists still make experiential work all the time, but there is also over half a century of artistic production which is specifically representational, discursive, etc. For example, plenty of work in the 1960's was made to take down the very idea that art had to be experiential and is now celebrated as some of the greatest in the canon.

I guess what I'm saying is that any time an essay about art uses terms like "genuine art" in an evaluative way, especially when the works being written about are so old, and quotes people like Berger (who is great, but also 1972), it's an essay that has an extremely limited scope in terms of what it can say about art itself.
Well yes. I support free speech, and also support the ability of people to promise to keep secrets.

If you don't think that is a fair analogy, then maybe you can start by explaining how the heck the free-speech to free software analogy works in the first place.
Maintaining EVs is cheaper and easier than fuel-based vehicles.
Care to explain why you disagree ? Be warned, I'm on the opposite side of yours : proprietary software is a byproduct of competition on material grounds :-)
However, if they were really radical they would license the whole GNU stack under the AGPL, because one cannot use SAAS software without the server side portion.

I find the FSF stance a bit inconsistent here.
It does. That's probably the single Apple Music feature that makes me use it over Spotify (although Spotify still has me as a customer too because of discover weekly). I don't know why but like the parent said, a bit of chit chat about the songs they're playing and short phone calls with artists before a track debut make it a much more enjoyable listening experience than putting on, for example, a Spotify radio station.
I can't wait to try this out. I'm already writing a ton of Rust in my free time. When the tooling improves, I'm going to start advocating for it everywhere.
Yeah, meant the bit about poor teenagers being reliable, because they need the jobs. Didn't mean to agree with the sentiment that middle-class kids are unreliable. Most probably aren't. Though I myself once flaked on a job in college to spend the summer in the city my boyfriend lived in. So guess I'm anecdotal evidence they can be. I found another job in the other city, but likely wouldn't have given up a sure-thing to take that risk if I hadn't had a safety net.

Each European country has a national broadcaster and collects radio/TV license fee (some are less strict about it than the others). I wouldn't be surprised if national broadcasters or fee collectors were pushing for presence of this chip in mobiles so no one can use the excuse "I don't have radio/TV so why should I pay the license?".

Vanguard has fees in addition to their funds' individual fees if they manage the 401k for a small business, though my guess is they are less than $8/month/person.

Having used Vanguard's site to manage my Google 401k, I can say it wasn't (and still isn't) the most usable website in the world, and I have no doubt the plan administration also isn't the most usable thing in the world. Then again, Google was normally pretty smart about which vendors they chose and they used Vanguard (and might still use --- I have no idea).

It is interesting that Guideline's whole blog post was about low cost and almost certainly Vanguard is a less expensive option (in addition to being secure and battle tested and they also probably have hired some lawyers).

When I watched Captain401's (YC company, https://captain401.com) presentation about their similar product, their whole pitch was about how much easier their service made administration and setup of the plan.
>It's not free to design or sell, even if the audio parts used "have the capability". //

The chances are that the system was designed to enable it and the choice to disable was made commercially. It seems most likely to be like hardware with more memory or faster clock speeds where the manufacturer just cripples it to make the cheaper model.
Philippines Wins South China Sea Case Against China
> there are other problems in the mix including taxing labour not land

I agree to some extent. Property (land) taxes have to be high enough to discourage people from leaving it unused. I have no problems with fully replacing personal income tax but I'm not an expert and I have no idea if we can realistically raise the same tax revenue from land tax alone.

Doesn't matter. If you have an iphone then US carrier can send a command to it that completely disables tethering, I believe the option actually disappears from the menu. With android phones it's not as clear cut, some phones will respect that command some will not, obviously you can always make it work by rooting your phone, but most people don't do that.
It's very simple. Apple doesn't want you to listen to the radio, they want you to buy music on iTunes.

> The problem as I saw it was that the game (as of a few years ago) rewarded taking territory, but not keeping it

I suspect that was intentional design. Niantic was born out of the Google Maps division, and IIRC, the whole point of Ingress (at least initially) was to crowd-source generation and verification of geo data for GMaps. You could think of it as Waze for pedestrians/bikes. So gameplay that encourages constant conflict == constant data stream.

Snowden's NSA revelations, Microsoft strongarming Windows 10 onto users, the increasing unavoidability of anything Google, Facebook continuing to be Facebook, copyright-laws being abused for all kinds of bullshit etc.

These all have validated what RMS has been saying for years, and you actually have to be quite ignorant at this point to just dismiss his viewpoint.
Making it good would make it more expensive than the returns you can expect. If it is possible to make it good, as the antenna is largely out of control.

Fm is not useless, but bad Fm is.

The third question is silly. Who's side are you arguing? The chip is there because it's more expensive not to have it. It's not like Apple adds Fm so they can laugh at the feature you almost had.

It won't allow you to listen To BBC. At least none of the FM enabled mp3 players I've touched would allow you to listen to FM in anything remotely reasonable.
What's "an ask"?
Urgent, need your opinion on a job interview situation
1. Had an in-person meeting with a CEO of a start-up. We spoke for 2.5 hours in total. He offered an interesting job proposition - to lead a new project from scratch. And asked me to speak to his Director for Product Strategy - who was originally hired for the same role and has run some pilots for the same.

2. The Director of Product Strategy insisted for a telephonic interview. Asked few questions and I answered all questions. This interview lasted for 20 minutes. He advised me to followup with CEO.

3. Followed up with CEO and he said maybe you are not a good fit for this role and we can explore some other roles for you in alignment with your past experiences. Introduces me to VP of Sales.

4. Meanwhile, I request for another meeting for the original job proposition and send across a presentation for the project. CEO likes the presentation and agrees for a meeting later in the week.

4. VP of Sales calls me the same evening - interviews me - and concludes that I am overqualified to become a Account Development Manager, lack identical experience of a Account Manager, finds me to be a good fit for a Partnerships role but he doesn't have a job opening at the moment. Concludes the call saying, let's keep in touch and see if we can have you on-board in a couple of months.

I am nervous and confused. I want the original job and I could turn the tables in getting another meeting with the CEO, hopefully. Will this rejection from the VP of Sales create a negative bias in the CEO's mind? Can I still expect to meet him? And secure the job regardless? Please advise. (Email: lylah.shaw@yandex.com)
