Specifically intended to be a great starting point for anyone trying to learn the ecosystem, as well as a solid source of info on more advanced topics.
I don't think "effective man of action" is very accurate. His most effective skills are publicity and marketing, but now that he's reached the presidency I'm not sure how much more those skills can help him.

He started with a lot of money and a family business and has done well, but the organization is not that big and not very remarkable if you ignore the marketing. I realize "he is the president" is a pretty good counterargument to "he's not an effective man of action", but hopefully you understand what I'm saying. I think his record is somewhere in between "bumbling around" and "man of action", probably a little closer to bumbling if you look at all his failures.
If the new administration plans to rein in the stupidity of perpetual ZIRP/QE, then yes, there will be an impact on funding for startups with no revenue model.

Everybody knows the current situation cannot last, and in fact much of financial industry does not want it to last (for good reason), and knows that the current system must be reformed.

Framing this as a "hurrr Trump's gonna to cause widespread disruption that benefits nobody" makes you look very ignorant.

If you're only opening a single link, then sure.

But if you're only opening a single link, then why use a new tab to begin with? Just click the link ("one click!"), and go back to the previous page if and when you want. If I'm opening links in new tabs, its generally because I'm reading a page, and queuing up things to read after I finish that initial page.

Some of the old-Opera diehards in this thread are acting like 99% of the browser market has made an objectively "incorrect" UX choice. That is absolute nonsense. You guys don't prefer the old-Opera new tab behavior because of some objective truth, you prefer it simply because that was the old-Opera behavior and you're used to it.

Objectively speaking, it is already the behavior of a default single-click to change focus. So if users take extra steps to open links in some different manner, then it's actually kinda weird to expect them to want the same focus-change behavior as if they hadn't taken those extra steps. Which is probably why every other browser has gone in that direction over the past decade. But I can acknowledge that preferences may vary.
Probably just a coincidence (in my case it might be related to how 14 used to be a common font size in my documents). On my current monitor (2560x1600) the value is more like 25-30 pixels.
500 lux is also much greater than what reaches your eyes in a typical household lighting scenario. If you stare in to a 100W incandescent light bulb from one meter, you're getting about 100 lux to your eyes.

We don't usually stare at light sources; we use them to illuminate objects. A 100W incandescent from 1 meter on to reading material or other work is considered fairly brightly lit, and that's not getting the full 100 lux back to your eyes - only what the surface reflects.

Daylight is far brighter, but most of us have been warned from early childhood about the danger of staring at the sun. 100,000 lux may be present, but we're not directing it in to our eyes.

Neccessity is the mother of invention. Do you have a need to distribute your job queues to multiple servers? Do you need multi-master db replication? Do you load balance? Do you need to instantiate db backups to recover/inspect data? Do you backup snapshots of every server? The more these things happen, the more likely is your IT to yield and buy rack servers
Yes, it's pretty much bananas. There is SO MUCH work being put into the ecosystem, that there really isn't much you can't do at this point. There is a node module for EVERYTHING. For all of JS's warts, it's fantastic to deal with.

Raising money from random people on the internet sounds like a nightmare.

Every investor you take on is there for life and has a unique set of goals. The advice they give you is bent towards those goals, be it creating the best product, exiting in six months, IPOing in 10 years, or making a large social impact. I can only imagine the all-caps emails from first-time investors demanding the company go in one direction.

Investor relations can be a time sink to manage for an early stage company, especially if you have inexperienced investors who only read about the good times on TechCrunch.
gesture input doesn't really need sight, especially if it is on a constrained surface (e.g. if the watch has a bezel that sticks out a bit, and a touch surface, you can easily "recalibrate" your absolute position on it every time you hit the borders). With adequate sensors it might be possible to do gestures in the air above it, or on the arm next to it.

Downside is that it requires training to learn the symbols, and of course without sight or other feedback you don't notice mistakes while doing it (same with keyboards though).

As someone who buys this for every employee at his organization, I couldn't disagree more.

It's a huge deal that I can control who shares and sees what vault, turn off an employee's access as soon as they are leaving the company, revoke tokens, etc.

Before this we were using Dropbox and it was a nightmare. Credentials for a bunch of things were mixed up in the wrong vaults, far more duplication, revoking access was more of a pain, etc.

1Password for a family sharing may not be worth it, maybe not even for a small 5 person shop with a very stable set of employees who are all savvy. But with 25 or so people with varying level of technical expertise and actually critical information being shared, 1Password's subscription is a godsend.
As my company grows 50+ our DOO is failing at tracking who's working what and when. We use JIRA and have timekeeping but don't use either for resourcing. Also the company has 10 independent projects. I'd love to have some tool besides a spreadsheet or hearsay about upcoming work and who's doing it.

What I meant by changing is that online content has gone up in quality since the introduction of MOOC's and the realization that decent money can be made from training. What used to be semi-random collections of tips and tricks have turned into full blown courses.
>I don't know--GP post has a valid point of view even if people disagree. I also feel it takes a bit of nerve to think that you should be financially compensated for writing your personal blog, no matter how big your audience is or how much time or effort you devote to it.

Well, feeling that people should just write stuff that you read and find valuable on their blogs for free, despite the effort it takes them to write them, takes even more nerve.

It also shows that you believe blogging is something unique that should be free for all, and not merely a new outlet for the act of writing, which, can be either a hobby or a job like any other.
In a sense, I do this. I work/earn 10% of what I could, and spend 90% of my time studying all the things I want, moving around different countries. On one hand it's very nice but on the other, earning little gets tiresome (especially now in my 30s). My 2017 is for reversing the percentage.
I don't want to bring the discussion off topic, but I find that hard to believe. Some good electronic artists that I enjoy are Aphex Twin, Boards of Canada, Burial, and The Avalanches. I agree that there is a lot of crappy electronic music on the internet but I think that's true of any genre. Why do you think its the lowest tier?

So this article was a big gripe about certain limitations to node. Maybe I missed something but if the author is saying they don't want to use node, well than what is an alternative? Would any Python framework be more suited, Ruby, Rust? Some of the limitations mentioned with sockets had more to do with hosting on Azure.
It's generic advice, but: Make sure you're solving the manager's pain point, not the low-level employee's (i.e. "this gets the information/service to you with a higher guarantee of quality and always at your fingertips" rather than "this saves your employee a lot of stress"), and make sure you're marketing to the manager, not just the low-level employee. And if you get lower-level employees as leads, make sure they have the ammunition (white papers, etc.) so they can escalate to their managers in terms of solving their managers' pain points.
I'm not clear what you mean -- how else would you prove a problem NP-hard in general? That's usually the most sensible way.
Good question. At one time I considered going back to school and getting a degree in Exercise and Sports Science and doing something related to athletic training. And I wrestled in high-school and have always thought I might one day want to do something with coaching wrestlers or something. So maybe some combination of that stuff.

I also spent a lot of time in my life as a volunteer firefighter and was an instructor with qualifications to teach Firefighter I & II certification classes, as well as Incident Command and LP Gas Firefighting. I love that world, especially the teaching part. So something related to teaching and emergency services could be appealing. The problem is, there's not a lot of money to be made doing that stuff, except at the higher levels.
Same here - I'm actually studying to take the first actuarial exam. Not sure if it's something I want to seriously pursue, but it's fun learning the math.

MnDoT also added it to I-35E northbound out of St. Paul. There's talk about adding it to I-35W northbound out of Minneapolis, too. I think MNPass entirely managed by the state of Minnesota, though, which may help keep the prices down.

IMHO MnDoT has actually been doing a pretty good job over the last 15-20 years at smoothing out traffic flows considerably in the north metro without adding much in the way of metering/tolls. SW Metro traffic flows still suck from what I hear, although to be fair the topography has something to do with that (i.e. HOW many bridges do we need to build over the Minnesota River?)
There are far worse conditions that arise from welding (and more so from welding incorrectly) that Parkinson's is the least of your worry. Even then, "so what" comes to mind. If you love doing it the fear of death shouldn't stop you. A youtuber I love once said "Has anyone ever noticed how there aren't any old welders? (cynical chuckle)". He's right but people still do it.

You can also, in some cases, avoid using manganese based fluxes. There are quite common rods without the presense of manganese.
> Can you tell what the reason behind that policy is?

there is no reasoning behind these policies. it's just someone's decision. you'd be surprised at how much business 'logic' is really just arbitrary choices.

the way to fix it is to quit and work for someone/some place that has a sane policy. these social shifts take decades to fully manifest because old rich people don't like changing their way. because they're old, and they're rich. why should they? they're old and rich, remember?

you do you, don't try to fight against what can't be changed.
BrightWork Security: Why User Authentication Is Important For Your Application
> Yes, you CAN do these things in Vivaldi... by using three-finger keyboard shortcuts, scrolling further down in a context menu, or using a wonky middle mouse button that most non-Solaris users never use.

Ummm, the middle mouse button is the way to open links in a background tab (the right button is for opening up a context menu, with links as with anything else on the computer). AFAIK, every modern mouse comes with a middle mouse button, disguised as the scroll wheel.

What perplexes me is why anyone would want anything else.
I never thought of that, just assumed correctness is top priority, but like anything bugs happen.
>If the Tor user has his phone somewhere nearby and if certain types of apps are on his phone, then his mobile device will ping back...

Surely the user would have had to approve microphone access for the app first, and it'd better have a good excuse.

Even then, does e.g. iOS allow backgrounded apps to listen in on the microphone ? Pretty sure only Siri has that level of privilege.

Has this whole ultrasound beacon thing taken off in the ad world ? Seems to (thankfully) require quite active user involvement to be able to work.
I could not agree more. The Java ecosystem is lacking in so many ways relative to .NET ecosystem.
I'm confused… I assume "'new' sync" means Sync-1.5 in your context, right? Where is the issue with using Sync-1.5? It works completely fine for me.
Quoting from a cousin post that I wrote:

> The police aren't there to protect you, specifically. They are paid to enforce the law, as directed by their superiors.

Those people who say "Just call the police." have likely never actually called the police (in the US).
Higher education in economics quickly ramps up to using actual mathematics. Your curriculum is more in line with high school or International Baccalaureate styled diplomas, with a focus on the "old" philosophical economics.
I've always wanted to do the same.

I'm really excited about the potential prospects of this. There are a lot of things that'd need to be worked out a nd a lot of decisions to be made but I think this has a ton of potential for all people. Creators and micro investors alike
I'd love to hear about various solutions for this as well. So many tools are so heavy weight, and others are too lightweight.. and everyone ends up with something JIRA/Bugzilla + spreadsheets and reports.
I get the desire to avoid Bad Hires, especially before the team is big enough to take up the slack of some C students. What's interesting though is what these practices imply about the Good Hires. They would have to be junior enough to not scoff at these requests, willing to put in loads of time for not much, and borderline fanatical about wanting to work there. People often talk about startups being cultish, and there would appear to be a lot of self selection happening to support that.

As for me, I've been around long enough to remember sleeping under my desk during a 72 hour shift at a Web 1.0 dot-com I worked at when I was 19. I can't imagine many others with 10+ years industry experience subjecting themselves to multi-day hiring gauntlets. If I'm right, they must be excluding a lot of experienced people. But then again, startups are so focused on speed and output at any cost that maybe excluding us mid-career types is part of the design.
You could always play "Car Mechanic Simulator 2015". Not 100% accurate but it does teach a lot if you come in with no knowledge whatsoever.
Rocket scientist. My brother is a propulsion system engineer working at ULA, over the years he's been on the Delta III, Atlas V, and now Vulcan. We compare jobs all the time, both have lots of politics and stress, but he wins hands down on sheer awesomeness.

No need for that much memory. If you can remember 8 years ago that's enough.
Perhaps they could mandate another additive to diesel that gives it a very apparent coloured plume in its exhaust; and then another additive to AdBlue that oxidizes/reduces that additive. Then you just tell police to pull over anyone with black fumes coming from their cars.
Very interesting move. But companies deciding to take equity funding from a variety of investors without proper knowledge of finance (and the market for the product) can be dangerous for both companies and crowd-investors. On the one hand companies must not forget that the investors own part of their company, which entails lots of legal issues (think of shareholder meetings, etc...). On the other hand this probably makes it unattractive for institutional investors who know the difficulties of handling scattered equity.
> This guy does not have a history of bumbling around. He seems to be quite an effective man of action.

I took the "best case" to mean that Trump is so caught up in his daily Twitter fueds (Arnold Schwarzenegger today) to push any significant legislative changes or start a war. Clearly Trump has had some degree of success in the business and marketing world.

Personally I think Trump knows exactly what he is doing when he makes outrageous public statements or goes after someone (distracting from issues like Russia, his conflicts of interest, the repeal of the ACA etc), but it's not a great leap to see how that behavior could cause issues in the world of international diplomacy. He has already made comments about nuclear proliferation, nuclear arms races, the one China policy, and the role of Russia in our recent election cycle. The linked article alludes to how quickly normality can spiral out of control especially if everyone assumes "it can't happen".

Does this explain why European cities smell the way they do? It makes me feel a bit sick after a while
Yep. I'm more inclined to roll my own right now though, since I have some very specific ideas I want to implement and some other use cases to incorporate. The biggest problem lately has been time. I started down this path sometime last year, but have been letting it sit on the back-burner for a while, in favor of focusing on higher priority tasks. sigh
Yeah we map the IOCP model to a readiness one, so it's totally platform independent. Wonder if you all could do the same.

This is absolutely hysterical. I am crying with laughter. The bots went back and forth about a dozen times about what they don't know, and why the other one knows what they themselves don't know that they don't know. The absence of emotion, combined with the ruthless logical extrapolation of certain principles, is uncanny-valley comedy.
