One thing I didn't realize until recently is that when applying for a home loan, they perform an audit of your business in addition to your personal assets if you have an LLC. The reason is because the company's profits pass through to the owners so it is considered personal income from the perspective of the lender. However with a C Corp everything is separate which saved me from a business audit.
The electoral college introduces quite a lot of error, but people don't seem to care enough to change it.
I think tech people are actually far more likely to be against this stuff than the general population. Also, a significant portion of people in tech don't have many formal qualifications compared to (as a bit of an extreme example) something like medicine or accounting. Also, as an accounting major myself, there was a big push to impress upon students ethics after the series of financial frauds in the 2000s. It involves a lot of telling us that Sarbanes-Oxley exists often, quizzing us on some detail of the act rarely, but never actually giving us ethically questionable situations and having us debate what should be done or covering cases of unethical behavior. Having taken an actually course in ethics, I'm not impressed by it's ability to get people to behave ethically, it was very theoretical and, actually, not very prescriptivist which is actually probably what you want. And the struggle you're up against, too, is that the NSA is a government agency giving you legally binding orders because, they argue, they need it for law-enforcement purposes. It's not even a black-and-white issue where you can expect everyone, even most, to agree on if the article described ethical behavior or not.

Uber has enough money and power to be negligent and reckless unfortunately. I was a big Uber user but the way they treated me after an accident (where I was the hurt passenger) was truly terrifying. I thought the whole Uber is "evil" thing was overblown but it is not. Be very, very careful with Uber. They have a lot of resources to fight with, and most people don't have the emotional or financial resources to go to trial with them. They're like a playground bully who gets away with anything because even the teachers can't win against them.
But unless there is a problem then "going fine" is just a reiteration of what's on the job board.

These are completely normal numbers for the Bay Area. I got substantially higher offers when switching jobs recently, so these numbers from 2010 are not surprising. I am not a rockstar or anything. I just applied to a lot of companies to get multiple offers, and negotiated aggressively. Lots of people are being paid less than this because they don't know they should be asking for more.

Check paysa.com for user-reported total compensation in recent offers. If you don't believe them, check http://h1bdata.info for lawyer-reported salaries of h1b employees (base salary only and probably biased downward by h1b abuse).

The h1b data is mind blowing in the huge disparities within the same company. Let me tell you: the people getting paid 50% more with the same title are not 50% better. I increased offers by 50% by telling the recruiters that's what I would need to accept an offer.

Hey thanks for the link. I actually did solve my own issue with the Cubietruck and managed to get KVM working, if not Xen yet. I'll get there eventually.

I don't have too much of an issue with the platform except I've seen some complaints elsewhere on HN about it (parts of Allwinner's CPUs?) being proprietary and supposedly there being some GPL issues there.

But I will certainly give the Pi a better look for this case.
"Note that evolutionary psychology, which theorizes that human behavior is genetic and controlled by largely genetic forces, is highly controversial in of itself"

It uses gcc behind.

I had a chance to read part of the sources and prepare a patched version with a set of toolchains (m68k, amd64, mips). It's nicely written, it's easy to add toolchains as well as to set default compilation options.
It is running the specified compilers. The github page has more info on how it works.

How hilarious, ironic, and fitting that dark markets operate more on a working platform of trust than friggin Ebay.
Where did I say anything remotely like that?

You're taking an ideological stance on privacy, one I generally agree with, and forgetting the motivator behind the overreaching laws, which is quite simply to ATTEMPT to do something to make this country safer. Does it work? I don't think so, but a lot of people do. It's pretty hard to quantify since the data isn't open, and by its nature can't be.

It's a pretty severe jump from disagreeing with whether or not this system works, and what liberties can challenge the system, to pulling your godwin card out.
<Cough> HN used to downvote stupid jokes like mine in the previous comment, not upvote them.

I'm sad that I'm saying this, but why wait for a permit when there's little to no chance of actual drawback or punishment for being reckless?
I'm certainly not agreeing with the value prop of the Bay Area, but PMI is actually not such a bad deal if you have prospects. It's not very much extra a month, and now you can get it removed after you have 20% equity in your home by request.
This isn't about trusting the client: it's about your endpoint being able to only accept a SHA256 hash sum from the client (thus: length limited) while allowing the user to input arbitrarily long passwords.

They hash in the browser: the only way they can mess with it by producing silly outputs, but that only hurts them.
Are you able to speak more about your specific experience?
Also, note the pedestrian in the walk who is aware enough to see the car coming and not get hit. I (like many in San Francisco) have crossed that crosswalk many, many times -- often with my kids (it leads to the Yerba Buena Gardens complex) and it's sickening to see this. I agree with the earlier commenters: if they want to maintain that this is human error, Uber should release all data that they have on this.

Here's a couple of citations for you. Both are generally exercise vs calorie control, not specific to running. Of course, running lands in the exercise category.

https://youtu.be/ztiHRiFXtoc
https://youtu.be/eXTiiz99p9o

My personal experience of a lifetime of moderate amounts of running has been that it didn't help me lose weight at all, it increased my strength and endurance. But when I run and when I exercise, I eat more to compensate. A decade of regular exercise left me healthy, and just as chubby as when I started.

Finally realizing exercise is a strength plan and not a weight loss plan, and getting myself into the right mental place to count calories -- I lost 40 pounds in 6 months and have kept the weight off for years because I learned how to eat & exercise. I get fat by eating more and skinny by eating less, I get strong by exercising and weak by not exercising.

You can hijack toString, sure.

You can also hijack other things. https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=25345#c5 is a good example of how this can play out in an actual example of code using getRandomBytes and then doing something with the return value.

As I said there, the only principled solution here is something like Caja, where you freeze all the primordials up front and then run all the maybe-untrusted code in sandbox-like setups. Well, or not having XSS injection, of course...

The initial idea of Cruise
Woops, you're right.
This is what I was thinking.

I don't see ill will on eBay's part. What I see is a few badly-designed processes: not soliciting proof when there is a buyer/seller dispute and not integrating a "Money Back Guarantee" charge into eBay's account balance.

These seem like matters of incompetence.

Also, in my experience, when I refused to pay eBay for some charges I disagreed with, they simply sent the debt to a collections agency.

After having worked with people that were absolutely hell bent on never using the CLI version of git (and having helped them fix the screwups of their GUI tools a good number of times), I actually think most people would be better off trying to understand how git works internally a little bit more instead of just installing another tool after the last one disappointed them.
I don't say you'll have to be an expert, but not having a clue what the tool actually tries to do doesn't really help in those cases (neither does it if you want to do something complicated in SVN, for example) - and the abstractions GUIs add on top of git are bound to break sometime.

That is - of course - if you are using git in more than just some basic way. If you're the single person committing code, it will "work" anyway.
Perhaps that's the problem: Some people don't see that collaborating on the same set of files in more usable, but also more complex ways (than they are used to) requires more orchestration than just "lock - update - release"...
To be clear - I am not suggesting that everything on the books should be followed, I am suggesting that punishing people who are following these specific laws in question, which are following NSA letters and gag orders, does not fit what I think is the commonly accepted way we treat each other.
if you have a ten person standup, and 8 of those people say "everything's going fine", and they're being honest (key), then you had a good standup. It's good because those other two people are saying "I'm blocked by XYZ".

It takes 5 seconds to say "I'm good, no blockers".

Thanks for the link. Watching so far, many of the points Brandon makes vaguely resonate with how I approach structuring my code, but knowing the common vocabulary (f.ex. the term ‘co-effect’) enables me to communicate how and why I do things, and ultimately to improve.

Out of curiosity, how much were the tickets and how early was it sold out? I was in Budapest right at that time to attend our remote team meeting, and I’m cursing myself for not knowing about this conference.
Lightsail does require having an AWS account, and I do believe you still have to go through the same setup (verification, sign up with a credit card). But the interface to create machines is vastly simplified.

You choose either the base OS, or an app stack (like Nodejs, or LAMP), then the price you want to pay, then name the machine.
I have been a ebay user since 1999. Have accumulated 200 feedbacks and currently at 100% positive. But I have entertained closing my account a few times in past two years and have started to cut back drastically on ebay as both a buyer and especially a seller.

First, as others have mentioned, they have a monopolistic marketplace where they require one to use their own Paypal for transactions. The combined fee's for selling on ebay + Paypal now are 10% of the final sold amount + the shipping amount. Where margins are slim as it is and things are already selling well below their value at times because of so many other competing auctions, the fee's make it not worth it in many cases. They are making a boatload in fees and I'm tired of it. I just sold $400 golf clubs and had to give them $42? Ebay provides value as the market is so large. I had those clubs on Craigslist for TWO months and not even a inquiry at that price. Ebay got sold in 7 day auction. But to pay 10% for everything is too greedy imo. They have NO competition.

Second, ebay has become a haven for scammers and overrun with them to point I am leery of purchasing anything like electronics, phones, etc on there. Software..forget it! DO NOT buy any licensed software from ebay no matter how good buyer feedback. Even if it claims new/sealed. The pirates have gotten too good. I'd venture to say 99% of software on there now is either a)counterfeit from get go or b)legit but "used" and/or illegal Volume Licenses. The problem is key will work when you get it but fail 5 months from now or when you need to reinstall. I've been victim of this two times now and NO more will I buy software off ebay. When it does fail, it is long enough you have zero recourse. Ebay you can't even file a claim as they give you only like 14 days after purchase. A pirate knows this and gets keys from a keygen. I had 8 legit looking MS Office licenses in sealed retail boxes register then 4 months later started to fail. Called Microsoft and they told me I had registered them too many times and they are now flagged. Huh? I only installed them ONCE. Credit card company didn't even help as it was past the time limit for a case. So basically the seller sold many of the same key and whoever bought from him, who knows how many of us, they are all worthless. Really upsets me that ebay allows ANY software even on there. They clearly know that this must be going on. I tried to inform them of the practice but couldn't even find a contact to let know. They don't care as they are making their fees! Tons of them from software. Their only concern is a small webpage to help identify counterfeit. From now on, I will only buy hard items that can't be counterfeited or scammed easily, like golf clubs.

Third, as this story is about, ebay is WAY to buyer-centric and I too was once bitten by similar story as topic starter. Not as blatantly bad as the OP or that amount of money, but bad enough I was pissed. Eventually also got someone from ebay on the phone and as similar was brushed off and there was no pleading my case. End of story, refund the money. It cost me out of my own pocket by time it was returned and settled.
Genesys of Drupal
Having looked through this project I would not recommend using it as a basis for learning how an iOS app is "done right", as they've deviated from standard iOS/Swift paradigms significantly. In particular, the use of ReactiveCocoa and MVVM creates an app that is structured completely differently from a "traditional" iOS app. They've also used (abused?) Swift's ability to define custom operators which results in a lot of code like this:

self.youLabel
|> authorBadgeLabelStyle
|> UILabel.lens.textColor .~ .whiteColor()
|> UILabel.lens.text %~ { _ in Strings.update_comments_you() }

Which again is very different from regular iOS/Swift code.

That said, I think this project is interesting to look at from the perspective of "this is what it would look like to go all-in with ReactiveCocoa and MVVM". It's kinda like Twisted in Python: Twisted code looks very different from normal Python code, cause once you start using Twisted, it becomes Twisted all the way down.
But why can't those two just tell the team they're blocked via email/IM?

It's your problem because of the knowledge you now have. 1-3 stars are masturbatory bullcrap, the actual rating system is binary.

Similar problem many professors face in schools with grade inflation. You are not holding any system accountable by using your own sensible scale instead of the one that matters, you're just punishing the student.
If the article's evidence is the reality of Lightsail, it's clearly not a production platform. Amazon does state that the intent is really for developers to quickly spin up instances in which to experiment, and being able to use Amazon's unique Linux image that contains the latest AWS hooks makes for a good way to develop apps for later deployment to a fully-enabled AWS instance.

Thanks. I posted to reddit asking what happened but no one ever answered. I thought it had to do with someone leeching my wifi or something causing some "saved data" from IP or something crazy like that. The other user was also living in Japan (I sent him an email on his own account telling him what happened but didn't stick around to see what happened). No, I didn't read his emails but when I looked at "new" expecting mine I saw a few emails about something in Fukuoka Japan (probably where he is or close to where he is).

Two people have already described why the git process is so powerful. However, let's put some context to what you are saying.

Study: The more unequal society the less the poor want redistribution
From the abstract:

This article investigates how income inequality affects class differences in attitudes to redistribution. Drawing on the fourth wave (2008-09) of the European Values Study, it provides a multilevel analysis covering 44 nations. The main finding is that class differences in attitudes to redistribution tend to fade out in more unequal countries, not because higher classes converge toward more proredistributive positions, but because working class people become less egalitarian.

From the conclusions:

This study revealed two key findings: 1) class differences in attitudes to redistribution fade out where inequality is higher; 2) the shrinkage of class differences is attributable to people in manual occupations becoming more similar to people in higher classes (i.e., less egalitarian, more meritocratic).

I like the highlighting – I finally understand why people say compilers generate faster code than a human could write. Pasted in a pretty straightforward and already fairly optimized function I'd written and of course got back something also pretty straightforward, then I put in "-Ofast -march=native" and, wow. Completely rearranged everything in a totally non-linear way and generated all sorts of bizarre (to me) instructions. I think I'd need to study it for months if not years to understand what the compiler did.
