IMO, and as you mentioned, your best bet in those early days is to rely on your network and have that insanely compelling vision with which to sell them on. I think you need a certain level of trust with people for them to be willing to bet a significant chunk of their time and such an inordinate amount of energy on your vision. Conversely no matter how much the person may love you, if your vision for the company is a giant pile of "meh" then you won't (and shouldn't) have much luck convincing them either.

The two go hand in hand for your first few hires.
Would have been if Intel had released a 32GB capable mobile chip that's not slower than the last generation.

Probably it got delayed after the overall shape and size were set in stone, so Apple had to go with the previous gen and work a miracle.

Or it was a conscious decision since this shape/size will be the base of all laptops for the next few processor generations and will be supported for the next 10 years or so.
> I see very little value in porting our very large code bases to Python 3

That's too bad. We've started writing all new code in 3, and now I can't stand working with 2. It feels clunky and old in comparison. A year ago I never would have believed I could feel that way, but I do: I will not willingly (that is, absent strong business reasons) write Python 2 code again.
So it would seem "wrongly imprisoned" in the title is not accurate.

The AM335x isn't designed for data acquisition like this. I should know: I'm doing a project right now with 16 Msamples running through a beaglebone. The PRUs don't really like to write directly to memory very much, and hacky methods are required to prevent segfaults. There are other chips with officially supported DSPs that work much, much better for this sort of thing.

In my experience, spotlight re-indexing mostly happens if you run out of disk space and the OS decides to drop spotlights caches in favor of swap space.

I think there is a tendancy to trivialise the difficulty of communication on large projects. I have had people tell me that "it is not rocket science". Well actually, maybe it is much harder than that. A small team can design a rocket engine. Getting a small team of managers to know all the right facts is very hard and on many projects seemingly impossible. And that is on projects where you can have very large margins of error. Obviously that is not always possible building things with strict mass limits.

That is not how facts work. The DNA evidence shows that the DNA was there. It doesn't create a fact out of something else.

It could be that the woman consented to sex with one or both of the men and fabricated the story to explain it to her boyfriend. It could be that McKinny and the woman's boyfriend were gay and the accusation was the woman's revenge after catching her boyfriend in bed with a man. We still don't know these things.

What backups your claim ? The same online articles ? Have you had first hand experience of the same ? I have lived in both countries and have experienced personally what does it take to live as an H1B worker as well as in Dubai on a work permit visa.

Most of the western media articles that you read are very biased and westerners seems kind of jealous of oil rich countries developing at a faster pace than theirs. Western media reports the incidents in an exaggerated manner when it comes to middle east nations.

If women are not allowed to drive a car in Saudi Arabia, Nor are H1B dependents (H4) spouses allowed to work in the US. They are not allowed to have a SSN or a bank account. So what makes US any different ? Isn't just slavery in another form towards the migrant workers no matter in which country they work ?

For Ackman's underperforming fund to cost you money, you would have to invest in it, and even then, it's still probably not as bad as a lot of "actively" managed mutual funds that charge incredible fees to track similar index funds. That, and the losses are still private.

It's like there's little to no distinction between an iffy private investment vehicle (with private losses) to what the investment banks get up to: Goldman and JP Morgan take risky bets, fail, then have the government/taxpayer top them back up to 100% + profits and bonuses -- while the debtors are still on the hook with little to no government relief.

Putting everything and the kitchen sink into USB-C was a mistake. I already have a horrible mess of weird cables that aren't interoperable, don't support Superspeed, have current limits, etc.

USB should be one thing and one thing only; a Universal Serial Bus. Can you send video over a serial connection? Great, let's do that instead of using the same physical connector for 85 different incompatible video cable designs that may or may not work with any given device.

USB 1.1 was about the right level of complexity. Maybe a bit too high. Since then, we have gone off the rails. It's no longer reasonable to suspect that anything except super-high-end devices will even bother to support a majority of the things in the USB spec. How many laptops actually support most of the charge profiles? The MacBooks do, but none of my friends' non-mac laptops do. It's a mess.

The speed we have now is great. Let's keep that. But let's also erase all the cruft and bring USB back to the simple, universal protocol it was supposed to be.

That is not the same thing at all. There's a vast chasm between not possible because you don't have the money and not phychologically available because you can't imagine lowering your standards. For one, the argument that rich people can't bring themselves to do it might be true, but is a broad generalization that is speculating about the mental state of other people. The argument that when you don't have the money, you don't get to choose to not have the money, that is a tautology, it's 100% guaranteed.
Hi, thank you for bringing this to our attention. If you wouldn't mind getting in touch with Mitchell (commented below) or myself at jennifer [at] gitlab [.] com, we can look at your particular situation.

To share a little background, our marketing automation system does have a limit to the number of emails a person can receive: max of 2 per day; 5 per seven days; and no limit to operational emails. Operational emails are things like a signup confirmation, EE trial license key & initial download instruction.

There are a certain periods of time that have the potential to create a "perfect storm" of emails to be sent/received in short succession.

Example of "perfect storm": If a person signs up for GitLab and download an EE trial the day or two before the bi-weekly newsletter email is sent, they could receive 3 operational emails and 1 marketing email in the first 24 hours.

Please let me know if you have additional questions or if I can explain something more clearly.

> 62 Look at what they were paid before and what people with comparable credentials get paid and pay some premium to that, but don’t pay based on the job title.

Sounds like a justification for low-balling your pay. If there is a large range for "comparable" credentials, and you have been underpaid at a previous job, you get ... still low pay.

I say this as a person who was chronically underpaid for much of my early career due to this.

You could blame me for not being aggressive, for not advocating for myself, for being unaware of what others made. And I do blame myself. Don't make the same mistakes I made!

But yeah, it is unprincipled to default to getting away with paying somebody on the lowest end of the scale just because you can get away with it. You can dress it up as "smart" or "principled" however you want, but it is still scummy. Low pay can stick to somebody for years, it takes forever to climb out of it because it takes a lot of relatively high percentage raises, during economic downturns.
> Ackman's underperforming fund...[is] still probably not as bad as a lot of "actively" managed mutual funds that charge incredible fees to track similar index funds

Ackman's fund is an actively-managed fund. I think these articles are appropriate for putting guardrails on what public controllers, e.g. of state pension funds, should and should not accept in terms of fees. Nobody is calling for regulating investment vehicle fee structures for wealthy individuals.

Actually it isn't precisely Apple's fault. It's the USB-IFs fault.

USB 3.1 in general is a mess. The spec allows for Alternate Modes, where the port is hardwired on the Motherboard to be able to be switched to deliver DisplayPort, HDMI, MHL, Thunderbolt, and damn near anything else you can figure out how to mux over the port's pins and cheaply demux on the other end of the cable. The best part is no one will actually list what Alternate Modes their laptop or motherboard supports. So if I want a laptop that supports, DisplayPort Alternate Mode with dual monitors, I'm opening support tickets with manufacturers asking "Does your USB-C port run this?"

Apple and Intel simply followed along what with what was already a mess.
I dunno man, my eyes glazed over somewhere in the middle of that third paragraph and I'm just happy I don't have to deal with any of that.

Even better, try finding a laptop that will run DisplayPort alternate mode over the USB-C port. EDIT: Or HDMI for that matter.

Hedge fund math = regular math. When you charge 2 and 20 but have slim or negative returns, the 2% dominates the 20%. Investors don't like the fixed part of fees, and want to be able to claw back some of the variable fees when later years are bad. Note that this already happens in reverse due to high-water marks (e.g. if you lose 20% one year and then make 25% the next, you don't get a performance fee since you're just back to even). Some investors would like to be able to do the same but in reverse.

In my mind, this is a business like any other. With more competition the price goes down. For HF that means lower fixed fees, higher hurdle rates, lower variable fees, or some combination. On top of that, you can look at it like any risky contract. If you want lower fixed fees, you'll have to pay more in variable fees, and your expected cost will be higher as the managers bear more risk
Ask HN: What are your useful tips to learn coding?
I've gotten myself into a stupid situation where I have purchased something like 4 adapters that don't accomplish what I thought they would when I bought them.

USB-C to DisplayPort -> DisplayPort to HDMI -> Monitor - doesn't work

USB-C to DisplayPort -> DisplayPort to DVI-D -> Monitor - doesn't work

USB-C to Ethernet - doesn't work

I'm actually planning to just go to Best Buy today and try to find anything that will let me plug this into my old monitor here even if it has to be the official USB-C to VGA cable from Apple since I don't have time to wait for shipping at this point.

I suppose this is my own fault but somehow I've never had this kind of problem in ~20 years of using a computer.

Edit: There are also currently very few resources about compatibility between all these new adapters and Apple hasn't done anything to help in their spec info so it's really just a guessing game right now.
There's a link between the process that elsewhere he mentions people need to go through to adapt there - developing a tougher skin is part of it, and that relates to learning to regulate amygdala activation - and current political questions relating to political correctness, triggering, safe spaces and the like. The research suggests that the answer to fear is incremental exposure - see treatment for arachnophobia for example - but that is not how we tend to think about it in our society today.

This is not realistic in terms of how power works.

When you have a wiz-bang asset allocator like Swensen (Yale) or Bronner (RSA), no one is going to have enough political juice to put restraints on them, and even if they did, typical legislators/administrators are largely too ignorant of the process and fee structures to come up with restraints in the first place.

>why not? Doesn't the US justice system operate under the principle of "innocent until proven guilty?"

Innocent is not a finding or disposition in the Court. You are likely to find the following dispositions in a given criminal case: guilty; not guilty/acquittal; no info (the State drops the case prior to trial but after filing charges, usually due to lack of evidence); nolle prosequi (State drops charges, usually in exchange for a plea or diversion program); withholding of adjudication (closing ones case without a formal conviction).

"Innocent until proven guilty" is very nice sounding, but the reality reads more like this: "the State shall have the burden to prove all the elements of the charges it brings against a criminal defendant beyond and to the exclusion of every reasonable doubt". The difference, the Defense doesn't have to prove its innocence, it doesn't have to do anything, the defense can just sit quietly and watch the State fail to prove its case.

Am I the only one not all-in about moving everything to HTTPS? It's great for sites that track personal information and sensitive data that you wouldn't want snooped. But for a lot of sites (like phrasegenerator.com, one of mine) I'm not sure it makes sense - if someone in a coffee shop finds out what random phrase generator categories you've visited it's of pretty much no consequence. It's just an extra configuration hassle on the server, and a CPU burden on both ends. Admittedly minor, but why add a layer of complexity when it's not needed?

I don't know. I use Let's Encrypt for the sites where it matters, and I'm all for it with search engines, email clients, anything with a password, etc. But as an engineer who likes to keep things simple, this seems like another layer of complexity borne out of one of those dogmatic 'best practice' rules that makes modern software slower, buggier and harder to maintain than it needs to be, despite our amazing modern hardware.

eh, I have kids and don't make that much money, but I think the point is still valid.

My colleague and I were talking about this paper the other day because it led to huge questions about all the assumptions underlying our definitions of "success."

For example, my wife and I's household income was fairly big before we had kids, but not really anything noteworthy. It allowed us to save up enough so that her staying home with them isn't too much of a financial strain. I do worry about the long-term consequences in terms of savings, but I also know that to her, staying home with them at this age means a lot to her, and her going to work to be away from them was miserable when she was doing that. I think she feels lucky.

I could have gone into something more lucrative, and probably could be pulling in more money now, but it would mean less flexibility for me, and more stress, etc. I'd also have about as much independence now at my job as someone could have (for better or worse). Are we not successful? I'm not always sure, because I've thought a lot of changing careers, but one reason I haven't is because I'm not sure it would be worth it on balance. It might be, but it might not be.

To abstract it a bit, think about Donald Trump: is he successful? A lot of people would say yes, but is he a model of who we want to be, or our children to be? Sure, some people would say yes, but more would probably say no. So should income be a marker of success?

One problem with these studies (and I think they're valuable, so I don't mean to suggest otherwise) is that what constitutes success is so variable, and is so detached from income, that I'm not sure how to interpret them.

I mean, sure, all other things being equal, I'd rather have more than less money, but all other things are definitely not equal in life. There's pros and cons to everything. Income is a very weak metric of what an ideal life goal is.
I have to agree with you on this. Amazon India has a wide range of product selection compared to both Flipkart/Snapdeal. I can also import US products from Amazon.com (or Amazon US) and also their equivalent (but slightly smaller) "Global Store" in Amazon India.

Flipkart had a golden opportunity to practically take over the e-commerce market in India. But they (like most other Indian companies) aren't/not willing to expand enough.
True, but none of this is really far-fetched in the realm of security. People can do this not to be difficult (as you are insinuating) but out of genuine data protection.
