I don't know about physics, but it's definitely not true about electrical engineering. The Fourier transform is one of those things that is absolutely fundamental to any branch of electrical engineering, you run into it when doing anything, from microelectronics to power distribution. And there's typically no way you get an EE diploma without a soul-wrenching course on signals & systems.

As a personal anecdote: I ended up taking three courses: one on signals, one on systems, one on circuits (...and systems!). During those troubled uni years, trying to see if I can still remember the Fourier transform was my "am I too drunk?" benchmark. When I could no longer do it, I went home.
for me the biggest advantage is working in my own repository and then pushing the changes upstream. I can develop features independent of other features. If there is a bug I can fix it, merge it into the productive branch and carry on working on other features.

I know that many people don't like it, but I can fix up commits in my local repository and push the change upstream in one.

With SVN I wasn't able to do this, so it was a big pain if you had to fix a bug if you were in the middle of a big feature, or if you had an experimental feature you wanted to clean up and release a month later.

FYI, Israel has extradited quite a few people, mostly related to fraud and drug dealing, e.g. http://www.jpost.com/National-News/Court-upholds-US-extradit... and http://www.haaretz.com/news/ze-ev-rosenstein-to-be-extradite...

A sad (or amusing, depending on your point of view) thing, actually - Israeli police has started begging the FBI a few years ago to ask Israel for extradition of Israeli drug dealers who had anything, even remotely, to do with the US - because the burden of evidence in a criminal case in Israel is so much heavier than in the US.

This is their plan B: Israeli police have been unable to get the conviction they wanted in cases which would have been cut-and-dry in the US. Israeli courts don't just trust blindly trust a cop's "I saw / I heard" evidence, and apply custody of evidence rules very strictly, which makes some (arguably just) convictions nearly impossible. (On the other hand, wrong convictions, though definitely exist, are probably much less frequent as a result)

That's not reasonable. If the person for whatever reason doesn't show up, but it is a company vs a person lawsuit, then granting everything doesn't make any sense. There could be various reasons why the person didn't show up.

This is the crux of the matter. Surprised how few of the comments which addresses this.

Just look at how many JS frameworks which have a "router" component. So rather than navigating documents you end up faking that we navigate documents. Wonder why things are getting so hard?

Look at how many have difficulties in distinguishing what REST is supposed to be and RPC. Both have a place - but many look for the "one" solution and ends up using something they call REST in a RPC style.

One important thing is a final web page is a confluence of code coming from different sources, and not controlled by the end user or the developer/website. If you define some functionality, I could just override (intentionally or not) with my code which also gets loaded along with yours.

Combine this with the inconsistent browser playground, you might get some perspective of the hacky nature of the workings in the front end world.

I would say ignore the nay-sayers and the guys slamming you for your "ego" or just giving you attitude - but do extract the actionable feedback, but only apply that which resonates with YOU. (But now at least you have the other bits that don't agree with you somewhere on your periphery of awareness, in case you turn out to just be stubborn and wrong - but there is no one proven way despite protestations in the comments, and even well validated startup mrthods like focusing on "customer interviews")

I can certainly related to your experience, also solving very hard problems, but I would laugh about 11 weeks as painful as "large amounts of sunk time" is.... We are thinking in terms of years not weeks.

Bootstrapping is almost always the best way to start.

Unless you are lucky, most VC only happens after your success is pretty obvious.

Our solution has been to do dev work for money on the side, one of which resulted in a maintenance retainer. It's a pain in the ass, but has allowed us to work on our startup for almost two years, buying us time to pivot aspects of our bring-to-market strategy or what market to apply our idea to.... In other words, do several BIG pivots.

I would also suggest you decide how to weigh your attention between your products or put them in a sequential strategy that makes sense to you... I don't think you can build three services at the same time at the same level of priority.

If you take the long view, keep pivoting, and keep searching for as much real world customer interaction, your chances of converging on something cool is much improved.

We also got nice growth metrics with very little long term activation/use, which drove us back to do more customer development in the real world (and over skype!)

Keep trying things, keep sharing the journey, we all make many mistakes along the way, hopefully they don't sink a business that "could have" worked.

My view is, you should only fail with flawed ideas, not fail winning ideas due to mistaken models of execution.

Keep learning.
Forays in Primality and Integer Factorization
No, it just takes experience and a healthy amount of curiosity. I can handle these types of challenges.
Javascript as a language is single threaded. Essentially JS is just an API working with text,arrays, dates but does not include I/O (networking and storage) typically implemented by host environment.(mostly browsers).
So this is where async nature arises from the network requests and storing data.
Hence race conditions can arise from doing async operations on which finishes first.
The amount of breakages I get using my static site/blog generator has my leaning toward worst ever. If that's any indication then anything actually complicated would be breaking all the time.

They can create things only in the sense that they receive a set of inputs and produce deterministic outputs according to a process explicitly specified by an prespecified algorithm. It's not "creative" in the conventional sense of the word, but perhaps humans do essentially the same thing in a much more advanced way.
This would be true if your offer was negotiated with a distant bureaucratic committee (or board), but most of the time, regardless of who they represent, you're just dealing with people.
In the book Chaos Monkey [1], Antonio Garcia Martinez writes:

I recall very little from the interviews, except a comment from
one of the DabbleDB engineers. After getting through the stress
questions, I asked him, "So what do you like most about Twitter?"

By this point, we'd build a decent rapport, so with a nod and a
wink, he said, "Well, you know, in companies like Facebook and
Google, they serve you breakfast, lunch and dinner. Here at Twitter,
they one serve you breakfast and lunch."

I cringed inwardly. So the big selling point was that nobody worked
late into the night, so we could have that chimerical work-life
balance? I smiled to keep the warm vibe going. But that comment more
than anything else sealed my decision. I was not going to blow the
biggest career wad of my life on a company that hesitated to work
past six p.m. daily.

I maintain a web-application by myself: I choose the platform and exactly which bits I wrote myself, and whre I pulled things in from other sources.

It still sucks. The target environment is undefined. In most programming problems we start with with a well defined target environment (or at least the language semantics are well defined and we quickly learn where the platform-specific hacks are).

In web programming each of the browsers is slightly different in about a hundred different ways. The main goal of using the web (presenting a platform independent UI without needing to download native code) is not entirely achievable. Instead, each year we apply slightly different hacks to go around in circles.

Bit OT but TDD works great where you have the specs for your project down to a T, but sometimes you're working on a website or project in which you have an end goal and some fair idea of what you're making but not everything is concrete and in such scenarios doing TDD can waste a lot of time (at least it did for me).

For such projects at least for my own case I have seen that an Excel driven development (Yes i just made it up) is a really good idea. Instead of writing tests and creating mocks and doing a lot of legwork I just write the function name in an Excel file, with the constraints and output in columns. Hardly takes me 1 minute since I always have the .xls file open. Then I go into a free-flying mode, creating my function and code and never think about it until the project is finally complete. I of course am mindful that I will have to write tests for it later so I do use DI and staw away from Singletons, etc.

Then when everything is ready (think v0.01), then I go back to each function in the XL file, and write a test for it creating assertions using the constraints and output I jotted down earlier. This way I'm not writing or re-writing my tests because something I hoped to use in my project has changed during the course of development.

After that it is TDD only because the v0.01 is out and now I have to careful that any changes I make don't break anything. I don't think this would work for a corporate environment but for solopreneurs and not so serious projects this can really be helpful. It does seem to work for me at least.

But then you need small disks (eg. 2TB). My point is that huge capacity drives are not appropriate in compute environments, as Hadoop is. They're more for cold storage.

If you really want to take your time working with client side projects, then you need to relax a bit and just learn a bit more and play a bit more with these techs. Some you'll hate, some you'll love. That's it.

I don't really understand why is this hate against web development goes on HN. I'm building web apps for lots of years now and the major obstacles were never really the technology, but money or people.

Building UI-s in the browser with CSS is not a rocket science; a JS app is easily scalable to 100k lines of code; backend wise you need some good team and a sane PM who don't want to immediately scale your app to Death Star level.

Thanks for the link. Actually, I've been watching a finance class given by the infamous Martin Shkreli (I came across it in an other HN comment recently). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ARrNYyJEnFI
and I've been pondering this efficiency hypothesis.

Basically, he explains how to pick stocks by fundamental analysis. Very entertaining to watch how this type of investors works. However, I can't help thinking that despite the rather sophisticated analysis, it just amounts to throwing random guesses. He always has to guesstimate some percentages (business future income over a decade and various other parameters) that can't be known precisely and little variation in them totally change the decision.

What he says it that 20% of stocks are badly priced by the market, it's just a matter of working hard enough to find them. Could it be that the market is only mostly efficient? or those successful investors are just the lucky ones and they are biased to interpret their success on great skills when it really is luck? (Nicholas Taleb's "fooled by randomness" is all about this idea).

I also watched a finance class on coursera (from Prof. Shiller) where this was discussed. A guest speaker (Andrew Redleaf) explained that the efficiency hypothesis was a thing of the past, essentially popular in academia, and he gave several reasons why it couldn't be true (you can find the video if you're interested) and it was convincing.
Of course - following the first law of technical documentation, the amount written about it is inversely proportional to the complexity of the problem.

Seriously though, it is getting a bit silly how almost every single kubernetes demo involving persistent data just uses emptyDir or hostPath and we are all supposed to pretend that those are a production-ready solution that won't lose data. AFAIK the PersistentVolumeClaim and StorageClass stuff will be the solution for this?
Volvo is bringing it to market. It all started with the XC90(up to 30 km/h) and now with the S90 and V90 is going to work up to 130 km/h which is perfect for highways.
Other than that they've recently started a collaboration with Uber [1][2].
I tried myself the S90 pilot assist and it works really well, it does require you to be more "present" on the wheel than what Tesla requires nowadays but it's surely going to be impreved via OTA updates.

And then you have e.g. Uber using that backlash effect as the core part of their business strategy, turning people against their governments to ensure a market for themselves.

And then you have tobacco companies suing countries for anti-smoking laws, because fuck it, why not.

And then you have corporations playing states and countries off each other by getting them to compete over jobs with tax breaks.

So no, nation states do not really have the upper hand over corporations. It's the other way around these days.
