For the non Scandinavians:

Denmark is an old trade nation. When you do business with them, some innocent paragraphs in the contract usually end up with them earning lots more. And they think that is a bit too funny.

At least, that is how the rest of the Nordic countries tend see them.

Also, they are too friendly and too often in a good mood. Weird people, especially my relatives down there. They could almost be called "normal Europeans", or something. Probably get too much sun in the winter.

(Most wars in Europe between two countries weren't France/England, it was Denmark/Sweden. Norway used to fight with the Danes. No one likes the Swedes, not even themselves.)

Edit: I might add that the oil could probably have happened to nicer people, but the Norwegians really deserved a break after a hard history with bad farming and bad neighbours. :-)

Edit 2: Sorry for chatting about irrelevant subjects on HN. Down votes are humbly accepted.
Congrats, you are getting a first hand perspective of a startup; there are no syllabi just a vague sense of which direction to walk. What you describe as "lack of guidance" can also be described as "hands off delegation". The presence or absence of task tracking, feature specs, etc mean nothing right now. Your success depends on your ability to take ownership of the feature, anticipate requirements, deliver the code, and ask for feedback. You've been thrown into the deep end of the pool while your peers who took normal internships are in the kiddie pool with floaties. Have fun and make time to come up for air every so often!
Restoring Connettivity in Amatrice After the Earthquake
Agreed. I have sent this link to a lot of people.
Yes, the no-tabs thing is backward as hell.

If this format is based on indentation, how does the parser deal with not knowing whether the writer used two or four spaces per level? And what if the parser encounters three spaces?

Tabs would be totally unambiguous: each tab is the next level. The "official" explanation is useless; there's not a single example of what problems are caused by these alleged differences in how editors handle tabs.

Thank you for your response! Yeah, I have a 32 GB USB drive that writes at 25-30MBps and reads at 60MBps, though I don't know the random 4K times. Additionally, I always religiously save my work and clear write cache because my village looses power often so I have to save the data often in case it happens.

Ask HN: Which language should be taught for Web?
We have a web applications course at our university, and tomcat servers are used as the mode of learning. I find this to be fairly dated, as a tiny percentage of web development jobs list java as their language of choice. I enquired to the school why they don't upgrade to python, node or PHP and they quoted that java will earn you a bigger salary through big data (really though?).
I've had terrible service when paying them hundreds of dollars. There's no correlation.

You realise the FBI has prosecuted people in the past, simply for the act of lying to them? Martha Stewart is the person who springs to mind.

Please bear in mind: I'm not a Trump supporter, I'm not a conservative, and I'm not a Sanders supporter either.

I just don't understand how anyone can look at the FBI's kid-glove treatment of Clinton and conclude that any 'regular' citizen would be afforded the same generosity.
It's an even better book - especially if you have any familiarity with the genre of soldier's memoirs, which often follow a very similar trajectory, from pre-military life to boot camp to the first brush with combat, to the climactic battle.

The philosophy is somewhat different, but the spiritual and thematic successor to Starship Troopers, Armor by John Steakley[1], which I think is an underappreciated classic.

> Earlier this year the Brazilian government used the courts to block WhatsApp for 72 hours as it seems they did not like being unable to peer into the private communications of their citizens. This happened again just a couple of weeks ago and it seems what the government cannot control should be blocked or even banned.

It's very hypocritical when an American criticises foreign "corrupt, oppressive" governments for "peering into private communications" by using public legal means against US corporations, whereas the US government has done exactly the same thing (using legal and illegal means) but you just didn't know about it (because most Internet companies are based in the US).

read spider-robinson's essay : 'rah rah R.A.H !'. imho, anyone trying to pigeonhole robert-heinlein into any of pejoratives e.g. fascist, racist, militarist etc. etc. has either an axe to grind, or has serious reading comprehension problems.
Hardly off topic when talking about the dearth of new antibiotics.

As for constant evolution - just put known samples on ice? (I wonder if it would be possible to use DNA printing to load them with a tested genome?) Regardless though, they are unlikely to evolve towards uselessness, and they can't attack human cells, so, does it matter if they drifted some?

FACEBOOK MARK ZUCKERBERG SHOCKS NIGERIAN CELEBRITIES
I think you're right about the extreme level of opsec required, but with that level of opsec I think it would be feasible to avoid being targeted by the intelligence agency in the first place. Which is the key to survival.

Obviously this means you are doing something illegal but undetected, like spying for the Russians or Chinese in the West, spying for the West in Russia or China, etc.

OTOH, if you are doing something like exposing human rights violations in China/Russia/Iran/etc. where, by its very nature, the results of your (in that place) illegal activity are published, you are far more likely to be targeted.
I think this goes for many Verhoeven's movies - lot of them contain a non-negligible amount of parody. But as the common wisdom says, working parody must be a good example of the genre it parodies and Verhoeven's movies are excellent examples of their genres.

At least, I think it works with Starship Troopers, Total Recall and Robocop. I'm not sure what to make of Basic Instinct and Playgirls.
Microservices Weekly (Issue #39): The Icebergs of Microservices
Please don't put words in my mouth. I would never say that you have to be deluded or pedantic or an audiophile in order to justify lossless audio file. And I would never ever say that "audiophiles don't listen though matrix decoders".

I completely accept that matrix decoding is a legitimate way to listen to music. I do it myself on occasion. But even before you throw lossy compression into play, it's worth acknowledging that Pro Logic decoding of a non-Pro Logic signal is hit-and-miss at best, which can often trip up or be generally unpleasant with many types of material.

In Hungary, it is standard to include a photo on the CV, so I do that. Recruiter friends told me how they consider non-photo applications secondary to ones with photos, and how a human face helps building a connection right from the start.

So my only reason for including my age on the CV is because I look like I'm 24, whereas I'm pushing 31.
There's a difference between discrimination - ie, different treatment based on the group, class, or category to which that person is perceived to belong to rather than on individual merit - and choosing not to associate oneself with a specific individual.

I would not attempt to "review" the man who wrote Scanner Darkly or Do Androids Dream Of Electric Sheep, or The Game-Players of Titan. It is jus as if a PHP or Java EE coder would try to review the Common Lisp code from AIMA or PAIP.

One has to reach a comparable level of intelligence first, and hopefully reaching that level will realize the futility to reviewing a "social genius".

Aside from the biographic details the whole article is quite meaningless.
A New Way of Building WebApps- Node.js
The past few years have seen Node.js explode on the application development scene like a superhero.

To turn it around, every time I see a cloudflare captcha they obviously have failed.

This is the quote any emulator dev should write on top of its desk:

The Doomsday Argument Is Even Worse Than Thought
I've run by booting from a 2GB Ubuntu Live Distro, and then used a 32GB drive for data. I then copied the USB data to the machine, and regularly ran rsync in the background to keep the RAM and USB in sync. I'm sure there are better solutions, but any shortcomings were minimal, and it was easy to set up, easy to use, and reliable.
Great article! It's interesting though, how did you convince management to remove features no one was using?

Remote rural areas.
Fair enough.

It does seem to be a rarely used feature though. Furthermore it confuses non-programmers who otherwise are happy with YAML (I've tested this, it really does).

Given all of this, and given that what it does can be easily achieved in other ways that don't require the feature, I think it's a net negative overall to have it in the spec.
Good point. And there can actually be more than one init() function per package!

Why are you jealous when you can easily create your own website that does the same exact thing. You can think of your own added bonus and charge a different price.

The Ultimate Guide to Technical SEO for Ecommercers Anno 2016
I worry about specific implementations of software for decentralisation. You can ban or block an app, arrest it's creators, but it's a lot harder to ban a protocol that has a number of different implementations. Maybe there isn't enough resources for that, maybe encryption and privacy tech is hard enough that more than one implementation isn't possible at this moment, but I think it should be a goal.
The position in your first 2 lines is entirely valid in my opinion. I was condemning the hatred, but it's entirely valid for each country to negotiate for their best interest, especially, I reckon, since the UK received preferential treatment when they were in.

> in the democratic interests of the remaining EU citizens who don't want to see the EU crumble any further

It's in the democratic interest of the remaining EU citizen to know that they won't get hatred if they ever decide to leave EU. The democratic interest is in freedom.

I'm looking at the increase of power of international law, and its democracy, the fact that they override country-level laws, and the track record we need to set for future agreements. We're negotiating with powerful countries who have a track record of spying, blackmailing and subverting other democracies to make them sign agreements against the will of the people. Once signed by our leaders, TTIP is unrevokable. This is not in our democratic interest. In democracy, all laws are voted and can be changed. It may incur costs (e.g. the loss of not having free trade anymore) but it shouldn't incur any fine, hatred, or condamnation based on moral standard.

A positive outcome of the Brexit on the TTIP/EU/WTO/OTAN/Climate/... would be if international agreements faced a referendum by the People every 10 years. That way, we'd ensure the people are in on the laws that apply to them.
Can you quantify this?

i don't think your institution should allow this. reason is an internship should be about learning. if you are on the floor you will learn by osmosis. if you work remotely you won't. as for you, skype or slack a lot. maybe you will still get something out of it. try your best to implement the feature anyways even if it is a tight schedule. you will likely be evaluated on that.
Anything manufactured with some process control should follow a bathtub curve for failures. It's the width of the tub that matters. I don't know if LCDs have been on the market long enough to have much data for end-of-life failures (probably not 18 years?) and that data probably wouldn't be publicly available.

It's hard to believe that TV manufactures are shooting for an 18 year mean lifetime. They might work after 18 years, but it is unlikely.
Great - I'll send you an e-mail with more info :)

Capacitive Touch Sensor Library for Proteus
Ideally you don't host with the big guys (since there are so many relays already - diversity) which makes it a bit harder to find something. Ten times so for exits.

Also, occasional upgrades.
The Falcon only has to solve the problem of getting the payload into orbit. The Shuttle had to both get payload into orbit and return its crew (and the Orbiter, and any return payload) safely to Earth (the Dragon capsule has to do this as well but the statistics given are for all Falcon launches). So as far as comparing the technical challenges involved with Falcon vs. the Shuttle, the Shuttle was solving a harder problem, which I think makes the numbers for the Shuttle look even better relative to the Falcon.

Harder at least as in there are extra steps that can go wrong (re-entry + landing), I suppose it’s debatable which was really a more difficult engineering project…
The point is that we're all playing the user role much more then the company owner/employee role.

Products and services are developed by companies and if they don't design things thinking about how they as users of those products and services would like to be treated, then everybody would have a worse overall experience.

There are simply some business models that produce far more negative experiences for more people then the actual gains for the owners. Advertising is the first example here..

We're all experiencig life as users and I'm saying that the systems we deign should be user centric so that from one's perspective everything falls into place seamleslly, without fragmentations..

Currently when interracting with technology I'm feeling that it's not designed for me but for the one that built it..

This is probably the single biggest hamstring of Chinese culture, historically. It's amazing the levels of literacy that were achieved at times during the pre-modern period, given how complex the writing system is. Imagine what could have been with an alphabetic/syllabic system - you can teach a six-year-old how to read 95%[1] of English words in one year of schooling, since they only need to learn 26 letters and perhaps 100 common groupings of them, most of which do follow similar patterns.

This is a core issue on remote working. Not many people talks about this because still remote working is something quite new.
I may be rarely used, generally speaking, but it's used a lot in CI configs. The linked example is the typical use case, and it's documented in both CI services' config section.

I'm certain this feature is a major reason why YAML was chosen for CI config over TOML or JSON, and the way it's used in those config files is, as I said, _not_ recursive, so the issue discussed here isn't relevant. Rejecting recursive definitions can be a sensible improvement.

What other ways do you have in mind that would be a viable replacement?

Mobile Phone Antenna Performance 2016 [pdf]
Let me a bit blunt. An intern that is still in school working a dozen hours a week, is not going to produce anything of real value, realistically. Any reasonable company (start up or not) knows this and is willing to take a hit on their productivity to help you out (and also evaluate whether or not you might be worth hiring in the future).

So the question of how to be successful should be whether or not you can do something positive, showcase your skills and learn about industry at the same time. If you even get a hint that it's about you producing value to the team, I would consider moving on (given what else you have said). There is no point in being set up for failure.

Most of the time with interns, I have to scramble to try to find some vague connection with what we are doing. The intern will feel bad if they realise that they are doing a make work project. In reality, though, it's all about the intern. Especially with talented interns, we just want to make the experience really positive and don't care at all what they do.

The way china is blocking tor is completely independent on the number of nodes. They even go and detect the traffic to bridges.

The problem is more like that tor relies on a few directory authorities and the only protection they have is geographic distribution and the public outcry should a set of nation state go actually seize them.
Thanks. I was looking at the process to process data sharing that you would use YAML or JSON for and how Lua would be used. It's never occurred to me to serialize a table and send it. I'll put that on the stack of things to research.
