I do the same as the parent. I'm at my best in the morning and someone has to get my second best. The best part of my day is working on personal projects or spending time with my wife in the morning. Work get's my second best when I show up at 9.

If I'm passed over for a promotion because of this, meh. I think I'm doing way better than the guy gives his best to his work and what's leftover to himself and family. Additionally, I've found I do better at work anyway because the rest of my life is order and I show up already having accomplished things and on a roll.
Jet.com is all in F# at that...
>If they spend money on trials and subtantiate their hypotheses, they have to stop selling it as a supplement because now they know it is a drug... but as long as they don't run the trials and don't know it's a drug, they can keep going.

Stands in contradiction with this (in the article).

>The company stresses that it is using only compounds supported by hundreds of peer-reviewed papers, that it enforces high manufacturing standards, and that it is conducting a human trial (currently 120 people between the ages of 60 and 80 are participating)

Your overall point about how it's a profit seeking venture first and foremost is accurate. Personally, I find it ethically wrong to imply that your product will help people without knowing for sure that it will. There's always the edge case where the less savvy consumer goes for the ineffective supplement instead of consulting with their doctor.
I'd argue that the thing to do is to read them. Take the emotion behind the comment seriously, but not the details (for positive and negative comments).

I've seen founders get caught up in their own ego about being an authority figure. By doing a startup and not investing in the S&P you are taking a contrarian view, so just own it.
Unsubstantive dismissals make for bad HN comments, so please don't post them. We're hoping for thoughtful discussion here.

There are HOAs where people get fined/punished because a package was left on their doorstep for too long without being picked up. I'm pretty sure that has nothing to do with property value. HOAs can be used to ensure property values don't diminish, but the reality is that they end up being run by busy-bodies that have exacting ideals on what their community should look look. Many of which have little to do with anything other than their own personal preferences.
I'd go the other direction: Either somewhere with fewer people and more space, or taking the time to build community with the people around me, so that they'd be more likely to come to me directly if they perceive a problem than to hand it off to some higher authority to handle.

Dense cities give me the creeps.
The internet facing part of Linode's DNS service is hosted by Cloudflare.
Speaking off the cuff, Rust doesn't have the market share. Node feels like it's still evolving at such a rapid pace that any framework is going to feel tired within a couple of years, if that. Revel is the closest thing to Rails in Go, I think it can be frustrating to work with, but there aren't a lot of strong options in contention for Golang. It seems possible that this which will lead to splintering in libraries/frameworks because it's all statically typed. Node has the most potential here, I'd say, but it's possible that someone has or will create a very strong service framework for golang with enough abstraction that it can have a web framework embedded. But I'm not sure.
It's too bad this submission didn't get more attention. It seems like these files/logs could help inform the "walls and fences" to better fight intrusion in the first place (root cause analysis). I think at the enterprise level, intrusion detection is used to help prevent intrusion in the first place. Minimizing the latency b/w these two functions seems like the thing to optimize for.
How we think about API Security
I've done side projects and small weekend prototypes and I know it's not the same as running a startup or vesting full time on an idea. But in all honestly it feels 100x worst when you get ignored. I would take all the haters and doubters over no comments, no response, no visitors, absolute silence.

Right now it's bed at 2-3am and up at 10am due to my current work. I've varied that quite a bit in the past. I've done different hours of sleep as well. I've even seen a sleep medicine doctor who seems to suspect a circadian rhythm sleep disorder. So far the best method I've found is being consistent with the time I wake up, although that only makes it marginally better in the morning.
> Graduate students are students. They are paying to be in school. They may be paying for it with money gained from the University but they are still students. Should an undergrad that is on a university scholarship be considered an employee too?

It depends on what they're doing. If they're expected to help with the teaching, instead of doing their own research, they're absolutely employees.

If they're purely doing research, then I agree this shouldn't be covered by the unionization.
Why do you hate freedom?
There's the possibility of geo-engineering.
They do outsource to Cloudflare.

One assumes some behind the scenes infrastructure exists to push and sync updates to Cloudflare.
If Niantic management is responsible (I mean they are but did they make wrong decisions, or did they make ok decisions in bad circumstances?) you can argue that keeping that same management involved in a sequel could be detrimental to the evolution of the game. It also makes it harder to shed the failures of the first iteration.

Personally I think Niantic's entire team was plain overwhelmed and failed to adapt. Some decisions were made for money, and you can argue that they were unnecessary, but their is also no doubt a lot of people worked really hard and tried their best to make it work. There is of course value in that experience that can be applied to future iterations.

The future looks great for AR at least.
Because the crack isn't the fundamental problem. The problem is that the ice sheet is too small to resist temperature changes. Purposefully making the ice sheet smaller yet only exacerbates the problem.

The only reason anyone cares that there is a crack is because it implies that the ice is shrinking.
Assuming you have the good fortune to live in an area where changing jobs is easy (or are interested in webdev).
What's worse, the field is constantly changing. What was true on one architecture may not be true on another, and even different generations of a single architecture can change a lot.
Such apps are menace. It seems that these apps cannot even do anything better than simple string search. They should learn a thing: Let Google do the search for them not their app.

A joke for the people who know little bit of programming: Hope they are not using strcmp to find the video file with title "Michael Phelps wins gold after thrilling final!" :(

edit: a typo
This sounds pretty similar to Ingress. Niantic seems to be poor game designers, since they seemed to have learnt very little from Ingress. I always thought Ingress and now Pokemon Go are great concepts with some of the worst design to keep people interested for more than a few months. Additionally, for a company that built Ingress and are well funded ex-googlers, I thought their handling of technical issues seemed outright terrible.
Route53 also:

A) Serves DNS from multiple domain names. A number of variants in .com .org and others etc

B) Serves DNS from multiple internet networks / sources. Queries from an end user don't all hit the same Anycast subnet.
Should have called it ant-man.
That's been my situation. Rather than making just another crap platformer for my first game more than two years ago, I started something a little too ambitious for my experience and available time. And although I basically finished the final touches (introductory tutorial) last night, I'm not certain it will become popular enough to warrant additional effort to enable monetizing through in-app purchases. (It's a rather zen game of flow, and ads would be too intrusive)
Yes, but my larger point here was that "taxable income" ==/==> "taxable compensation". That is, there is strictly more to "tax status" of income than whether it is taxable income.

For more, read Pub 970. It's really quite complicated than whether you pay taxes on the income or not.

there was a lot of money put into angular, and I suspect the same may be true of React.
B.F. Skinner has demonstrated in his famous experiments that animals react much stronger to rewards that are highly unpredictable. Recently this principle has been applied with much success to the design of addictive online games. Time to apply the same principle to employee motivation?

The Complexity Barrier (2003)
That x% inflation increase is already what most employers have right now. I get a ~3% raise every year in November, my manager has the ability to +/- it to distribute the total allocation based on merit to an extent, but everyone gets roughly between 2.5-3.5% which keeps up with inflation - this is fairly standard practice from what I've seen.
It is the fragility of the TCP/IP infrastructure relative to DDOS attacks that is the problem.

I would love to hear about DDOS resilient service architectures that don't require something like Cloudflare.

Compaing US sales of Model S for 2015 to say something like a Toyota RAV4 (a popular but not top selling car in the US)

In the US, the best selling vehicle the Ford F-Series which sold 780,354 in 2015

So I wouldn't say it's not mass produced, but it hasn't hit full economy of scale, and isn't designed to.
Some have been known to work from home without breakfast, as well.

>> Just keep in mind that there is a huge variation, not every AD(H)D-er is the same.

I was just thinking about the ways to cope, music/sound, pair programming. I know not every ADHD-er prefer pair programming.

>> Then you should possibly contact your doctor, it shouldn't be that way as long as you follow the recommandations, but sometimes even minor changes can make major differences, even changes in dosage or even type based on the same active ingredient.

> It's less the effects of the medication and more the way that medication impacts your life as an adult. You're often accused of not actually having ADHD and faking it for "legal meth". Some people actually struggle with the temptation to use recreationally.

That's a shame if you ask me and you have my sympathy here.

>> This isn't R, is it?

> Relevant? Yes. It is. If you can't make it through a workday without your medication, you can barely handle your social life. ADHD trying to be social is always late, always harried, always forgets to bring the thing it promised to bring, and much more. Trust me, I can't tell you what my plans are for this weekend without checking my calendar and every appointment on that calendar has a checklist of things to bring if any.

I know what you mean.

>"If you weren't so concerned about your personal image and more concern about changing the world, you'd hang in for as long as it took"

People are more reacting out of fear for their personal well-being and prosperity, and the survival of their company, than 'egos'.
Agreed! That is not in dispute. The question is whether tax status of income is wholly determined by whether the income is considered "taxable income". In the bizarro world of the IRS, the answer is no !
The smallness of the change doesn't affect the point I was making. [1] The point is that you can't simply look at the raw incidence rates and conclude that specific added countermeasures are unnecessary or irrelevant to the attacker's incentives.

If you agree with that, then you agree with my general point and it's just an issue of which specific countermeasures survive a CBA.

[1] In fact, I chose a small change specifically to highly the absurdity of being bound by low/declining attack rates.
It's the result of a bizarre American Protestant religious tenet that gradually evolved into existence over the 20th century, namely: People deserve health and happiness in life in inverse relationship to their degree of cynicism; Children are born in a perfect state, without cynicism, therefore any effort by a cynical (by definition) adult that could protect a child from anything that could possibly affect their health or happiness is mandatory. The most important thing a child needs to learn is to control themselves and to be optimistic, which will immunize them to the effects of adult cynicism, not how to handle themselves independently in the world, and especially not math.

It's a complete inversion of the previous straightforward pre-20c mindset, which was: adults take longer to make, are stronger, and they know more stuff, so they're more important. Also, religiously, that babies are born fundamentally broken, and need to gain understanding of the world before they have any chance to fix themselves. Dead babies go to Hell, or at best an endless purgatory.

IMO 80% of the character of its current expression comes from spoiled Baby Boomers having a combination of condescension and hate towards their parents. They were perfect, ruined by the world, and endangered by their parents cynical reasoning about why we should be in Vietnam and hate communism (something about sharing being evil and assuming the worst about everybody.)
One fair baseline is whether or not the custom User Agent you're using to scrape has request timing that's on the order of what a fast human visitor might do. If the site can't handle that, it's certainly not the UA's fault.

I feel like that makes it really easy to wall off constructive criticism. If you're looking for bad comments you will see more of them. Human communication in general is hard, consider:

"Your product sucks!"

... could mean

"Your product is not optimized for my low powered device and I received a subpar, if rare, experience because of it! Please optimize for my device in the future and I will happily become a recurring customer and tell my friends about it!"

EDIT: \n, wording
An interesting idea is to charge for bad internet comments.

Want to be bitchy? Sure, just pay for it.
You've spent thousands of hours working on something but a random comment from someone who spent 30 seconds thinking about your thing upsets you?

That's a weakness to be overcome not a trait to be embraced.

HN users were early adopters of most of the mentioned successful startups but I would agree it's a very biased sample of users.
> I've enjoyed various unofficial re-cuttings of Star Wars, different edits of Blade Runner, and so on. I'd put other things in the same category: upscalers for emulated games, texture packs for N64 games and Minecraft, mods for Minecraft and every other game under the sun, re-implementations of game engines or whole games that introduce features not found in the originals, etc.

I would note that all of these fall either into the category of "creator encourages community involvement" or "creator has abandoned work and ignores community involvement." Yes, people participate when participation is a net-positive. What I was asking is why people would bother contributing their time and effort to effectively do software development for a company that actively tries to discourage them from doing so.

It'd be like people making Minecraft mods and then Microsoft suing them for doing so. Surely people would re-implement the engine and start modding that, to get away from the abuse?

> If they'd only called it Rucksack Goblins and made up their own characters...

Yes, that's more what I meant. Why not create a Fanny-pack Gremlins March app?
For every person who says something out loud, there are a dozen who are silently saying the same thing in their head. You have to have a good response to the objections.
So cool! So you are doing development aid in government projects or something similar? I was thinking of maybe looking into such a field after graduating, seems interesting. :)

Yep, I agree wholeheartedly. It was already baffling in the city, if you went more remote it must seem surreal at first.

But then it actually makes sense. They have smartphones out of necessity, not (mainly) to play Candy Crush and netflix.

This reminds me of part of the Refugee debate in Europe when certain people complained and mocked those 'rich' refugees seeking shelter all the while holding expensive looking smartphones.

They don't get it. For those people, their wiko/samsung sf34-235-A5r-7/huawei/Iphone8 is compass, map, navigator, encyclopedia, communication tool and bank all in one. If we were refugees or poor third world inhabitants and smart, our mobile should be the LAST thing to give up... no need for sandals when you can have a portable computer swiss knife that fits in your pocket!
I've discovered that some people are annoyed at a project merely existing. Criticism is great, but it is best not to listen to people who have nothing to add other than seeing your project as "pointless."
After reading up on a bunch of papers on NR, I decided to try it for a month. I found that I have noticably better sleep in terms of deep sleep vs light sleep (as quantified by a sleep tracker) and faster muscle recovery after bike rides. I just signed up up for a 1 year subscription. YMMV
Not as a goal in itself, no. In the case of real priorities, yes. In the case of apparent priorities, no.

Nevertheless, how numerous are CEOs compared to other employees?
To play devil's advocate, how would you value the return on investment on that pre- and post-work? Would it have been more valuable to simply sift the feedback for what felt useful and actionable?
That sounds right. When things weren't going well at the startups I worked at I felt crazy stressed out.

I also felt some stress when busy, but that was less because there was a lot to do and more because I had someone who was expecting it to be done in an unreasonable amount of time.
When I was a grad student the only tuition benefits I got were (a) I was allowed to pay in-state tuition instead of out-of-state and (b) I didn't have to pay fees for things like the Athletic department; this ended up being about 25% cheaper than in-state undergrad. On paper, (a) was a huge benefit, but considering I lived there for seven years and paid state and local taxes the whole time, I'm not inclined to be too generous with that accounting.
I tend to agree.

About 90% of the critical comments on startups are things that occur to people within literally the first few minutes of thinking about them. If that long.

Those comments are at best valueless, and perhaps even of negative value, both to the startup and to the wider community. Probably even to the commenters themselves.

The people involved in the company, the founders, the employees, the investors, they all have brains of their own and those same problems occurred to them in about the same amount of time. There's no real insight there, no true value added. Nearly all of your initial reactions as an outsider is a known-known, so where's the value?

What is useful, at least to the commenter, and likely the community, and maybe even the company itself is taking the next step- What would make what you think is an issue not a problem? How can it be solved? How can it be avoided altogether?

That's where the actual insight comes in, not in spotting the problems that are obvious to everyone in 60 seconds.

This morning I went through the list of YC Demo Day companies from yesterday and made notes about my initial reactions to each. What I thought was cool, what I thought was likely to be a problem, what I didn't get at all. Probably pretty much the same reactions everyone else had.

And over the next whatever period of time, I'm going to think about why they could work, or what it would take to make them work, or what their "real plan" is. Just as a way to keep my brain active beyond kneejerk responses. For me, that's infinitely more useful than whatever immediate dismissal comes to mind.
This is fascinating to me. Your assessment is entirely defendable, yet in this situation I end up with the opposite assessment:

"this is a make believe world with arbitrary rules - bend them as much as you can, because why not"

>No one gets to bend the rules of a game because of their circumstance

Again, I come to the opposite conclusion, that _because the rules are there_ they are fun to push, modify, bend, break.

If you and I were having a conversation in just about any other context, most likely we would find so many areas in which we agree, and might even really enjoy the time spent.

So, it's so funny to me that we might disagree so completely on something so foundational as rule-following behavior.

Cheers!
You called out the fact that you see repeating patterns in the industry, and go on to mention Node.js as a great environment for rapid prototyping. That made me chuckle because that's exactly what I heard about RoR just a few years ago.
> There are HOAs where people get fined/punished because a package was left on their doorstep for too long without being picked up. I'm pretty sure that has nothing to do with property value.

It does, indirectly. It is perceived that a pattern of packages being left outside attracts thieves to the neighborhood, increasing neighborhood crime rate, decreasing property values.

(That's not to say that individual HOA actions in this area are reasonable or proportional, just that there is a nexus with property values.)
