I echo your sentiment, however after being called into jury service in New Zealand, I was dismayed to discover first hand that the probability of a fair hearing in court is based on the degree to which you can afford a defence.

My perspective now is to avoid legal problems at nearly any cost, but to also advocate for understanding, respect--and when necessary--defence of the Law.

To give an example, I believe Trey Gowdy (the U.S. Representative) is a shining example of this approach and if you are interested I would recommend watching a few of his speeches on YouTube.

Hey I know this might be late, but using it there's one major pain point with specifically the Japanese, in that what you have to input seems to be cut off at kind of arbitrary points, that make it annoying to input.

For example I just got the sentence 昨日本を買った where you have to fill in 買っ, but the Japanese input doesn't work for just inputting 買っ, I have to type 買った and then hit backspace to delete the extra character. This happens a lot, probably in more than half of the sentences I'm getting, it seems like it really loves to end words on っ.

It'd be cool to change it so it splits words differently, or if that's not possible make it accept extra input that matches the following characters, so inputting 買った would be accepted as correct.

Beyond that I'm loving the site, and it seems like you got a good business model, I'm still considering whether to try out pro.

Tillerson worked with them as part of his business, so not sure how this is troubling. Flynn was asked to attend a banquet or something along those lines by RT. Some of the others did some consulting work of some sort.

When you are a retired high level military/government person, consulting opportunities such as those abound. The same is true of those who chose to consult for the Ukrainian side, the Georgian side, etc.

It seems like a pretty big leap to say that just because someone did some consulting work for a government that they are somehow ethically compromised. Many US firms do business with Russia, the Saudi government, etc. etc. Where do we draw the line and deem these people somehow unfit to serve in government?

There has not been a principled approach to this, seemingly only finger pointing and other name calling that is reminiscent of the cold war era.

If there were any actual evidence of wrongdoing, it would be a completely different story. Surely with the mass surveillance system many phone calls, emails and other associations/links have been monitored, yet we are not seeing leaks of any troubling details, only vague finger pointing.

It would be a very serious thing if there were some sort of plot, but so far there does not seem to be one.

They're charging consumers as much as they can. There was a backlash when they tried to raise rates. They ended up without enough revenue to get the same catalog from content owners that were increasingly wary.

Some of the in house entertainment they produced in response is good though.
The "Deep State" is just inertia.

It is only because America has elected a +radical president has this become somewhat apparent. But the inertia is democratic as it represents the democratic process and accumulation.

It is especially important when you have edge-case of a president wining, but with 46% of popular vote and 26.5% of the potential vote.

The "Deep State" being the actual institutions of law and governance is actually what makes democracy sustainable.
> Yes, I know, rules are rules - but if rules admit the validity of such an outcome, how much of a democracy is it, really?

If that's the only thing wrong you can buy a few chip heat sinks and set it in a thermal epoxy to turn the entire thing into a thermally massive block.

That looks interesting. However I think evidence would be something actually linking the hacks with that group. The group was accused, but no evidence was presented linking it, just speculation.
Using python for micro benchmarks usually doesnt work. The mere fact you use python says you dont care about performance, but convenience.

Absolutely not. Chomsky talks about the agendas that motivate the media.

That is a huge difference from demagoguery about "enemies of the people".

The best way we can fight lies in the media is by educating Americans about how to detect bias in their media sources, encouraging them to read and watch multiple news sources (not just Fox News) and letting them form their own opinions.

Ask HN: Should I quit as the tech-cofounder of a good seed stage startup?
Hello HN,

I've been the tech co-founder of a (VC funded) seed stage start-up with two other founders for a year now and I'm wondering if I should continue this path or not. To give some more background, my biz co-founders have been doing a great job in terms of growing the business. I've built the tech stack from ground up and now we're scaling our infrastructure for more customers. We have a steady revenue growth and the goal is to go for high growth through aggressive sales and biz development. Everything looks good in that sense.

However, there are some part of this journey that makes me overwhelmed sometimes and you've probably read about it a thousand times in different blogs. There's no work-life balance. A normal week is 60-70 hours and I work around 11 hours a day. The biz co-founders sometimes don't understand that building a product takes a lot of time and they can be difficult to deal with. Also, we're heavily under-resourced so sometimes I think the people working for us are being taken advantage of (in the biz team) which I'm not very comfortable with. I don't know how this will be in the long term.

In addition to all this, I'm turning 32 and at this stage I need to make some decision regarding having a family. I'd like to hangout with my girlfriend more before we decide something more serious about our future and now I can't do anything because of the job.

I was wondering to if there are people who had similar experience and hear some insights from HN community.
Thanks

> Why representing members at grievance hearings is a union bread and butter issue

In theory. And disciplining or terminating employees who expose the company to well-documented, open-and-shut lawsuits is an HR bread and butter issue. Yet here we are.

If you really want someone who will be legally bound to represent you without conflict of interest, and with legal protection against retaliation, you want a lawyer, not a union rep. And you can do that with or without a union. (And employment attorneys already operate on contingency for most straightforward cases like these).

Oh yeah the spooks in CIA would have been on the front lines of opposition to Hitler... pull the other one.

Also it's only in the impoverished political climate of USA that one would ever worry about a "majority" for ruler. Most nations have more than 1.5 political parties, so they have lots of elections in which no one gets a majority. Sure some of them have runoffs, but with or without those it's possible for a set of electoral rules to handle the less-than-absolute-majority case perfectly well.
The FCC-mandated radiation testing for FM receivers is absolutely trivial compared to all the other emissions tests required by them for electronics devices, especially intentional radiators such as mobile phones. They're at the lowest tier of assessment and authorization, which doesn't even require the use of an accredited testing laboratory or filing any kind of application or registration: http://www.ecfr.gov/cgi-bin/text-idx?SID=df5370d2e0e33e10c9b... Any company capable of making a mobile phone should have the equipment to do this in-house.

Now, it's entirely possible that the chipset manufacturers are charging licensing fees to enable FM radio, but as far as I can tell companies don't have to pay a single cent to the FCC for this.

On the pencil front, I recommend checking out kuru toga pencils. They rotate the lead slightly with every cycle of applied pressure and release, so you don't get the lead worn down until you're writing at a shallow angle with a much larger effective cross section of lead.

On the fountain pen side, just be aware that if you work in an office environment, you'll have to deal with low quality paper that's incompatible with fountain pens. In that way paper is like fruit and vegetables: there's an enormous amount of variation in quality, and it's not terribly expensive to get something really good, but as a country the US has decided it's a commodity, so we just use the lowest quality white rectangles money can buy.

Good design doesn't have to be user-friendly. I like how chopsticks can be implemented out of almost any material, are dead-simple, and are "opinionated." They impose severe constraints on what/how you cook, and help create food culture.

I don't see something like this as a simple mistake, to me it's closer to gross negligence. How do you write an entire article like that without anyone asking "hey so, how is this a risk?".

They wrote an entire article about the all the danger that this event shows us except the most basic questions about the hack would have quickly lead you to a realisation that there was absolutely nothing here.

They even pin it on Lazy Bear the "Elite Russian hacking group". How the hell did they did they get that conclusion from malware? Unless they were shooting entire clips from the hip.
I certainly had this in the back of my mind. But I knew someone who got hired doing the exact same thing - my contact. So I had good reason to think that this effort would be worth something, and Uber can certainly afford to pay for those kinds of services. Of course, like you are saying, nothing stops them simply just using what I did and telling me to fuck off, which is what happened.
And if it's "treason against the republic" instead, what then?
I don't know what is true, but with the media, with some experience, you can see signs. For example they often leave out parts of the story. If you really think about it, you notice the story has holes and you start wondering what they left out.

Also, they usually have an agenda, and you'll notice how all the facts presented somehow highlight that agenda.

Also, simply try to think about all the ways the story could be wrong, or that would disprove the assumption. Are theses things addressed in the story? If not, they probably don't have an interest in conveying the truth. An article usually works by shining a light on certain aspects of an event. Try to mentally shine the light on other aspects.

Essentially, don't fall for "proof by anecdote". If they present you with a sob-story of somebody to relate to, try to generalize and ask yourself if it is still true.

I would suggest to start simple and manually to get some feeling for the problems in the field. No frameworks, no tools, just you and Python!

Do a simple experiment: get some texts, split words between spaces (e.g line.split(" ")) and use a dict to count the frequency of the words. Sort the words by frequency, look at them, and you will eventually reach the same conclusion as in figure 1 of the paper by Luhn when working for IBM in 1958 (http://courses.ischool.berkeley.edu/i256/f06/papers/luhn58.p...)

There are lots of corpora out there in the wild, but if you need to roll your own from wikipedia texts you can use this tool I did: https://github.com/joaoventura/WikiCorpusExtractor

From this experiment, and depending if you like statistics or not, you can play a bit with the numbers. For instance, you can use Tf-Idf (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tf%E2%80%93idf) to extract potential keywords from documents. Check the formula, it only uses the frequency of occurrence of words in documents.

Only use tools such as Deep neural networks if you decide later that they are essential for what you need. I did an entire PhD on this area just with Python and playing with frequencies, no frameworks at all (an eg. of my work can be found at http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1877050912...).

Good luck!

> On top of that, many federal US prisons violate basic human rights, as even some US experts occasionally admit.

This could be an interesting strategy to force the US to abide by international human rights treaties. You may not be able to take the U.S. to court over human rights violations, but the judiciary in other countries could start refusing to extradite people to the U.S., thus getting the U.S. government to take the issue more seriously. Of course, this would require that the judges in other countries kind of all agree to do this.
Instigate fear and people will surrender their rights. Add a pinch of patriotism and a flag and no one will dare to open his mouth. Exactly the same as they are doing in Turkey and they way they play in every dictatorship.
This is true, my comment was a bit hastily written. The general point I was trying to make is that compared to zero source material, leaks that are accompanied by source material are less vulnerable to fabricated embellishments, though they are still vulnerable to misleading context.

'If you are saying things like “We can’t really know what happened” and extra-specially pleading on behalf of the extra-special Woody Allen, then you are saying that his innocence is more presumptive than hers. You are saying that he is on trial, not her: he deserves judicial safeguards in the court of public opinion, but she does not.

The damnably difficult thing about all of this, of course, is that you can’t presume that both are innocent at the same time. One of them must be saying something that is not true. But “he said, she said” doesn’t resolve to “let’s start by assuming she’s lying,” except in a rape culture, and if you are presuming his innocence by presuming her mendacity, you are rape cultured.'

Re 1. Almost all fountain pens are "hacker friendly". I have a couple of pens which are much more expensive than Noodler's and I have completely dismantled and then reassembled them multiple times while cleaning. Unless you are using some proprietary filling mechanism, both the nib, and feed are interchangeable.
The role of the camera is generally overrated, however there are certain characteristics that you only get with expensive full frame cameras such as the Canon EOS 5D Mark III he appears to be using:

* very low noise

* very shallow DOF

* long bursts of rapid images

* weather proofing (including cold)

* improved dynamic range

* high resolution (lets you crop the part you are interested in and retain good quality)

There are also other improvements such as better autofocus.

Which means, no a $300 camera will not be good enough for some of these shots.

PS: I use a MFT camera myself and it's good enough for my needs.
