If there is anything that causes them to ditch me as their friend from one day to the next, then yes. Then I am not important to them. I mean, that's okay, but that's no longer true friendship. And it's in no way entitlement, it's just an observation. It's just that I have a deeper and more rigorous sense of friendship than other people.
Ask HN: HR and accounting software for a fast growing saas company
Hi, we are a fast growing saas company with a team both in US and Europe (8 and we are hiring aggressively). Still paying people based on 1099 contracts, but need to switch to hiring full-time asap. We also need to take care of our finance reporting.

Is Zenefits still the best way to go?
What about accounting? We need to see clearly where money goes. Freshbooks?
I have always wondered on those SoC prices. That Apple SoC price is basically what Apple paid to TSMC for using leading edge node Fab price. Which already includes the cost of TSMC operation and profits. But for Apple, does it include all the cost up front for design and testing those SoC, which should be in 100s of millions. Does it include ARM, IMG, and other Licensed IP? Qualcomm would have the same cost just as Apple, the different would be Apple not making any margins on SoC, but Qualcomm needs to ( much helped by their inclusion of Modem )
My main question is, how is it When a $20–30 dollar SoC manage to have many companies behind them thriving, while Intel’s Pentium, Core M etc have an ASP, lets assume $100. ( Retail have their margin, and Intel sell big lot to OEM, but I still think that is a low estimate )
Intel is earning 20–50x the margin then all of those SoC combined. ( Assume Qualcomm make $2 on a $25 SoC, Intel would likely earn $80–90 on $100 chip, as they earn everything Qualcomm, ARM, TSMC etc combined )But Even if you discount the 5:1 mobile SoC to PC volume Intel’s profit still doesn’t reflect that.
It seems, Intel has higher cost structure which I fail to comprehend, any one could shine some light?

I found most addons for chrome were broken so I made a less broken userscript for Tampermonkey: https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/24811-html5-stop-autoplay/...

Here's Tampermonkey: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/tampermonkey/dhdgf...
Actually iOS didn't have auto play until recently. Back then the outcry from developers was the opposite - "y won't you implement the standard!"
I observed when I was growing up, and have heard similar anecdotes from many other people, that many people attend Church or a similar regular religious setting because of the social activities and opportunities to make friends and acquaintances. I know more than a handful of family members who's entire social circle revolves around church activities -- and many of them aren't really terribly religious. It makes quite a bit of sense, in most big metros you can find plenty of churches with congregations of well over a thousand members, giving you a large pool of possible social connections.

It seems as people in general become less religious, there's less of a default gathering place. But I've noticed that various types of fandoms seem to be filling in some of that gap. For example, if you have an interest in old computers and games there's a couple dozen big shows all over the U.S. every year and it's my understanding that many people have formed regular friendships because of these shows.

I almost wish there was a "Church of the Rational Mind" that met for service every Sunday morning at a local University auditorium, and you could hear lectures on various topics for an hour, then socialize afterwards. The Bible provides fodder for a tremendous number of sermons, on many topics, but there isn't the same kind of focused equivalent book for secularists.

This is an attempt to standardize the tracking of users hosted on every site not hosted by Google. I do think its up to the author to decide where they host and this MUST include the page's dependencies!

I don't mean they can't have 3rd party dependencies, but no specific 3rd party should be required, especially if they don't support graceful degradation in the case where the 3rd party is unreachable.

"Tremor"? I mean, IMO anything 7+ is more than a tremor.
Gridlock? I was thinking that by controlling the house, the senate, and the presidency, the Republicans are going to be able to push through all the legislation they want.

Combine that with new Supreme Court justices (and probably one or two more in the next four years) and Trump could effect more change than any President has in a long time.

That could be handled by allowing the media tag to be changed and restarted with a new URL during (and only during) the "ended" event[1]. That would allow continuing an already playing video with minimal side effects. E.g. only alow something like this:

var video = document.getElementsById("current_video_tag");
var play_next_video = function () {
video.src = "https://exmple.com/next_video_url";
video.currentTime = 0;
video.play();
});

/* this should work */
video.addEventListener("ended", play_next_video);

/* but these shouldn't */
video.addEventListener("progress", play_next_video);
setTimeout(play_next_video, 1000);

I guess you could have a kind of crowd-sourced de-minificarion project, combined with checking script hashes, but I think that would be considered a form of pirating and thus require a lot of piracy-related workarounds. Perhaps one could have a de-minification tool which only stores the steps to deminfy a script, and then you could apply it based on the script's hash.
Virtually any adblocker has tracking script blocker lists as well, which includes Google Analytics.

> Just keeping them cared for is a non-stop grind that takes most of your energy, and you start jealously guarding those few spare moments that you get to yourself.

I've always wanted children, but this entire thread scares me a little bit with comments like this all over the place. Everyone says "Oh, but it feels so worth it!" That's great, but does it feel that way for everyone? I crave alone time and working on my own little research projects and hobbies. The idea of driving multiple little people back and forth to soccer practice just... doesn't seem like my version of a good time (which is why I really hope self-driving cars become a thing in the next few years).

It sounds like young children would cause an introverted tech person who is more interested in ideas than sensory experiences to fall apart after a while. I really hope that when I have children I get the magical "this is amazing; I never could have imagined how meaningful life could feel!" moment that everyone else talks about, but if that doesn't happen, I might be screwed...

Self-Taught Software Engineers: Why Open Source Is Important to Us
It sounds like you're genuinely interested in correcting mistakes made by the democratic party.

To that end as an outsider looking in, it seems to me that the biggest problem the democratic party has right now is the ability to openly discuss ideas in a rational manner free from the chains of political correctness and its inherent biases.

If the left could openly discuss the relationship between islam and terrorism, the negative impacts of certain equal opportunity laws on the minorities they are trying to benefit, the conflict between gender pronoun legislation and free speech, etc. then the party itself would be on big path for improvement.

Note: Your statements were about the Democratic Party so I gave you my opinion on it. The Republican Party is replete with its own flaws, but thats not the topic here. IMO I think most of the left/right dichotomy is a poor political model which leads to group think over rational contemplation of specific issues.

EDIT: I understand a libertarian or non-conforming opinion is not popular on HN or in liberal circles, hence the down votes. The irony here and specifically with my statement above is that we should uphold debate and argument over exclusion and political correctness to "let the good ideas win in free debate" and the only counter is to downvote and silence. Disagreement is great but it leads to Trump if you batle with intimidation tactics and silencing instead of actual argument. This is the biggest problem currently with many on the left and so I stand by my statement.
This meets my personal experience with Nigerians: they are extremely friendly people. I might say they are "oddly friendly" in a good way. To me, it is unusual to be that friendly with strangers, but I'm not surprised that such openness to others yields a rich social life.

Even worse for me is on mobile, scrolling down a news article, and suddenly this full page ad starts sneaking up from the bottom, with tiny text that says "keep scrolling to read the rest of the article".

I agree that doing away with the autoplay attribute on the video tag is probably not the right thing to do. It definitely has use cases.

However, I think it is completely reasonable to allow users to configure their browsers to not allow this behavior if they so desire. This may exist in some form in some browsers already, but it's definitely not accessible to the average user.

While your general complaint is fine, "Does anyone here even know why we are bombing Yemen?" has some very good answers:

If you fire a missile at a US warship, you shouldn't be surprised if any assets used to do that get zapped in return.

Probably the 2nd biggest principle for our having a Navy, beside the obvious one of protecting the nation from attacks, is to keep the sea lanes open, so that's why we had warships offshore Yemen in the first place.

One of the reasons Yemen is a major area of contention, part of today's "Great Game", it that it's a great place to interdict sea traffic to and from the Red Sea and the Suez Canal. As I just measured it by eye from Google Maps, the initial straits vary in distance from Djibouti and Eritrea by 15 to 25 miles, less if you count an island in the narrowest chokepoint.

But, yes, as Peter Theil put it, "Just as much as is is about making America great, Trump's agenda is about making America a normal country.... A normal country does not fight five simultaneous undeclared wars."
Large operations always tend to communicate with their service providers at some level.

Likewise I imagine these types of companies tend to generate some level of complaint from sellers to the provider. They are really aggressive bots that can create attack level traffic spikes, and break a sellers TOS (snicker) in some cases.

Things Hillary and her campaign did during the primaries:

- Rigging the primary/caucus schedule so that all the states favoring Hillary would be the first to vote.

- Rigged the debate schedule by purposely scheduling them at odd times when no one would by watching so that Bernie couldn't get his message out.

- Cheated in the debates by receiving the questions in advance, and was given extra time by the moderators.

- Got the media to censor all virtually all coverage of Bernie. E.g. on the days when he had big primary wins, the media covered the speeches of every other candidate except him.

- Illegally disenfranchised hundreds of thousands of voters in New York and Arizona alone by removing them from the voter roles, or else removing their party affiliation. Disenfranchised millions more around the country by, e.g., forcing California voters to vote provisional and then just throwing out their ballots without counting them.

- Circumvented campaign finance laws by having donors send money to the state parties, but then requiring the state parties to send all of that money to her campaign. All while trashing Bernie for not raising money for the down ticket races.

- Dutch is almost exclusively spoken in the Netherlands.

This would mean that 80% of the Dutch adult population has an Adult Friend Feinnder account!?

To sum up everything in this thread: Life becomes less appealing as you get older. You lose friends because "career" and "kids" and "my wife would not agree to this".

Your Starbucks example is flawed. Starbucks employees don't barge into your office with a boombox playing at full volume and screaming at you about their latest drinks, then make you pay for the taxi that brought them there, simply because you opened an article about their new store in your area.
