I guess I just don't see making money from advertisements as an indictment of an organization. They are free to attempt to show ads, just as users are free to block them, and you can stop using their products should you find a better one. An example of a corporation I would never work for would be Nestle, which has caused death and dependency with their products in Africa.

Email providers (Google, Microsoft, your ISP, or even Yahoo) having access to your email is the very nature of unencrypted email unless you expect everyone to run their own mail servers. And non-gmail users can definitely send email to gmail users; I've definitely sent email from an organization I worked at that used Outlook+Exchange to my personal gmail acocunt. I have also had scripts that sent out email from a (now defunct) website in the past and really had not issue getting email accepted once I set up reverse DNS, but admittedly that was many years ago.

"Easy to ignore" just meant easy to ignore internal corporate-speak bullshit, similar internal buzzwords that I've seen at every company I've worked at of any size.

A dictator could already gain control of any communications platform in theory, such as your phone company. In fact, the NSA already does spy on communications in the US (and probably abroad). Does that mean nobody should ever work for a communications-based company?
I don't think that point can be contested. But I do think Google is hoarding information in an irresponsible way. The bottom line is they do not have ultimate control of that data, the government does. Maybe not today but look what happened in Turkey, what is the integrity of every good meaning tech company in Turkey? There is not much you can do to protect your customers data when tanks roll up at the door. We might not use tanks in the US like that but we certainly have men in suits.
Interesting topic, but please add [pdf] to the title.
I prefer not to rearrange my life for my job if I don't have to. I relocated for Microsoft in the past but I like my current location and am uninterested in relocating for a company again. People as a whole should resist being pushed around by employers.

On the topic, Elon Musk was involved in the creation of PayPal, which arbitrarily takes cash from people while bypassing bank regulations, yet many (both of us included apparently) have no inherent problem working for a Musk company.

On a side note, the Sansa Clip Zip works great and after years still holds some good hours of charge, but at 50+ the screen size is becoming too small, especially when
I'm not wearing glasses on the beach. What Rockbox compatible model would you suggest with great battery life and a bigger (twice at least) screen?
The mouse is a first class supported element on Android (as is wired networking). You can use it anywhere you'd otherwise use touch (in regular Android apps).

Similarly with keyboards: ctrl-c, x and v work just as you expect. As does alt-tab.

This is very different from the iOS story, so just to play on the differences, I was just showing to what extent a Android-tablet can be taken if the need arises. I didn't mean to hint X11 and chroots were officially supported by Google or any vendor.
I have Aphantasia, nice to see people suddenly becoming aware of this. I'm hoping to see a lot more research in this area in the next few years, but anecdotally I'll say spacial cognition and visual memory are different things, I have the former but not the latter. You don't need a minds eye to have a sense of where things are spatially but given that people with visual recall likely do this task visually, I'm not sure I can explain it.
This is great!
I'm actually building something kinda similar right now.. I love the webassembly demo though!

I was kind of disagreeing with 2 things:

that encapsulation must be all encompassing, and that identity is not meaningful or useful for transparent immutable data...
I believe that's probably what they will do in 2017 from Tim Cook's comments.
You are allowed to use someone else's disabled placard in your car if you are dropping them off or picking them up. So whether or not someone is capable of driving has no bearing on space utilization.
There are many high profile targets where "if it were possible a bad actor would have used it" has been proven false. See recent publicity about vulnerabilities in printers, antivirus products, etc.
This is an unpopular position, but approaches like BrickerBot are likely to be effective.
Yes, magic is a great way to describe it. Sometimes it's delightful and benevolent magic, while other times it's more like a trickster's curse.

For me, there came a point when making Free nixen do what I want became easier than making macOS not do what I didn't want. Returning to Linux/*BSD from my decade long sabbatical to macOS, I've been delighted by the things that have changed, but even more delighted by some of the things that haven't.

SEEKING WORK - Remote or Charlotte, NC

Freelance full-stack developer - I've built backends, APIs, and iOS and Android apps to help a number of startups get off the ground quickly (and secure funding!). I can also put together data pipelines for ETL and analytics projects.

I can improve performance, triage complex bugs, and integrate 3rd party APIs into your product, or scope out an MVP or full project from start to finish.

I have experience with many more but these are the skills I use the most right now:

- Go, Python, Swift/Objective-C, C/C++, Java, etc.
- Postgres, Redis, AWS, Nginx, Docker, etc.

The trash can Mac Pro is definitely too much form for too little function - but letting the pendulum swing back the other way is IMO also bad.

The previous tower Mac Pros are massive machines - massive beyond the point of practicality for many purposes. They're also insanely heavy to the point of impracticality. Not all pros want/can live with something 3 feet tall that consumes several square feet of floor space.

The "right" path forward for the pro-desktop Mac is IMO something in between - something that maximizes extensibility and versatility without completely embracing the gigantor-ATX-case-on-the-floor direction.

I'm wondering about the practicality of something more like mini-ITX - small enough to be practical, but allowing access to all the core bits (RAM, CPU, GPU, HDDs).
You don't care about design, size, or noise, you want something cheap, you want repairability, you don't like the designs Apple favours like thinness and the Pro design, you aren't into macOS…

Why do you want a Hackintosh? It sounds like you want the exact opposite of a Mac.

Network and data infrastructure is also a challenge for self driving cars and has a ways to go. The data produced by a single self driving car can be pretty staggering (I've heard estimates as high as 5 TB/minute). Now think about transferring that much data around a fleet of cars over current LTE wireless data connections.

Even if someone gets it working in a small area, it will take years of investment in network infra to make it truly ubiquitious.

Barring some major technical breakthroughs, I just don't see the current tech that these companies are testing being scalable at the same level as GPS, cellular data, etc.

Email: profsummergig@gmail.com

I'm a computer professor in the business school of a university in the Rocky Mountain area.

I get summers off. I want to visit SoCal or FL for 3 months during summer 2017 to learn surfing (I'm a young-at-heart, very physically active male 44 year old, never married, no kids).

During that stay, I'd like to work for a start-up or some such. Don't need pay, but sweat equity and a place to crash would be yuuuuuge.

My ideal schedule will be to surf 4 hours a day, and spend 8 hours a day working at the start-up. I consider myself well-versed in human communication, cognitive biases, UI/UX design, pricing, coaching.

I'm well read. My regular reads (and YouTube and Twitter addictions) include:

- Hacker News
- Nassim Taleb
- Daniel Kahneman
- Marc Andreessen
- Paul Graham (Y Combinator)
- Scott Adams (creator of Dilbert)
- Derek Sivers

I'm huge into hacking "learning." I've studied Spanish (Pimsleur Level IV and Michel Thomas Foundation) and French (Pimsleur Level I and Michel Thomas Foundation), and am fluent in English and Hindi. I have a PhD, and hope to do a J.D. one day. Good cook, regular meditator. Originally from India, I have my green card, and expect to have citizenship in mid-June.
I've done both VHDL an Verilog extensively in school but not professionally. From my experience verilog was much nicer to use. I designed a complete MIPS pipelined CPU: https://github.com/eggie5/SDSU-COMPE475-SPRING13

However, speaking to many FPGA professionals I know, VHDL has a much more traction in industry and patricianly in defense contractors.
Thanks for the post, do you know what other 4k laptops are currently a popular choice for hackintoshing?
You're right, and “... that will change how you think about coding” is clickbait. Luckily the article contains an adjective for that, which we've used in the title. Thanks!
Yelp is evil. One month ago we had 5 stars with 932 reviews. Today we have 3.5 stars with 118 reviews. 3800 reviews are not recommend.

It's better to dual boot. As mentioned graphics acceleration doesn't work which breaks a surprising amount of things. There's a good chance it will work on a NUC.
I use http://hnrankings.info/ and it is on THAT front page.
Didn't you just describe FundersClub's [1] business model? Basically a crowdsourced investment platform for startups.

Yeah, it was limited to "accredited investors" in compliance with SEC and tax laws in the US, but even that is changing, at least on paper [2].

Well, it says that individual photons are still waves.
You're right; we do still hear about murders. We hear about them because the law does not prevent them from happening.

I was not trying to claim that the FDA never does any good. I was directly countering a false claim presented by the person to whom I was replying.

It also doesn't require a coordinated conspiracy. Yelp salespeople are like anyone else...there are some a-holes in the bunch. They could, individually, make this sort of thing happen. Even without any admin access. A few fake accounts, or friends and family, etc.
There is a dead simple solution: cities must be allowed to use eminent domain for unoccupied (more than half a year is usually used as standard) housing if the city declares a housing emergency.

Radical, yes, but I don't believe that there is any other viable solution left, including "unoccupied taxes" - because when the tax over a year is lower than expected value gain, investors just pay the fine instead of complying.
Hm. I'm not sure I agree. There aren't many humans that can just turn their necks around like an owl. It's not a range of motion that the human body is really capable of, so there may be some people who can twist their neck further than others, but we basically have the same range of motion or even potential same range of motion. In that respect, humans are "designed" to only have a certain range of motion, which kind of implies some sort of genetic specification. Otherwise if we did not have a mostly uniform range of motion (when taken as a whole) we'd have noodle people and owl people and people that could kick the back of their head or something. But we don't.
MotionMD | Software Developers (Ruby/Rails) | San Diego, CA | Remote (US only), Contract

MotionMD is a clinical workflow application for Orthopedic practices. We help automate the paperwork for healthcare billing and inventory management so that doctors can spend more time delivering great care to the patient. MotionMD is a small software team inside of DJO Global, a 40 year old Orthopedic bracing and surgical company. We are not a startup! :-)

The development team works remote all across the US with team members in every US time zone. The app is built using Ruby (2.3) and Rails (4.2, soon 5.0!) with primarily Backbone and Bootstrap on the front end. Our Rails app is going on 9 years old and is very well maintained and continuously undergoing new feature development. This is not legacy software!

We’re looking for people who value writing and reading maintainable code and enjoy working on software that makes an impact. We're open to anyone with at least 1 year of professional work in Ruby/Rails.

Our app is deployed on AWS and makes use of a lot of neat tools such as Terraform, Ansible, and Packer.

We’re looking for people with the following traits:
- An approach to problem solving that always starts and ends with the customer in mind

- Ability to clarify or gather additional requirements

- Familiar working with other people's code that might not be well understood and taking the initiative to understand the problem and make it better

- Uses frustrating code or development tools as an opportunity to make them better

Here are some of our upcoming challenges:

- Incrementally refactoring a significant amount of Backbone and CoffeeScript to something (TypeScript? ES6 + Flow?) more maintainable

- Helping our implementation team speed up the process of onboarding new customers

- Implementing a search index solution for encrypted patient data

Please email richard.bishop@djoglobal.com if you’re interested!
Nit: The first stage does not boost the second stage to orbital velocity. It boosts it to ~2,000 m/s, which is one-quarter of an orbital velocity, and one-sixteenth of the energy required for orbit.

I don't believe it's likely that we'll see recovery of an orbital velocity stage anytime soon.

Not op, but basically:

Most of my pc cases are easily 15 years old. They have been upgraded when needed and have none of the same parts, but at no point did I have to trash the entire thing and start over. Just the simple standard of having mobos and pss fit has been incredibly useful in decreasing waste, both physical and monitary. Obviously this whole poiny is moot with apples current hardware strategy becoming even more untouchable black box like.

And i'm on HN so I obviously use a model M from the late 80s early 90s. No scarcasm here.
To be fair, some of the patches for the NRO missions seem weirdly aggressive, with a bunch of different animals all clutching the earth. They've had bird claws (presumably an American eagle), a tiger, a three-headed bird monster, and even a big green dragon. It's odd that tentacles were somehow considered worse taste.
This poat was heavily cirticized when it was published.

For the language subset needed for this test, the languages are EQUAL (different syntax, same structure and outcome).

Also, the guy who run the competition (and his employer) have for years tried to kill vhdl (for personal and $$$ reasons).

Deleted this comment because it's apparently rubbing people the wrong way that I experienced poor performance using Adobe programs on a Windows machine and decided to share that experience.
A good theme and sharelatex.com can go a long way to get someone to use it. I usually only get Math Majors to invest in it.

I did almost all my Master Theology papers in it. Just difficult to use different languages. I usually have to use one or all of these Greek, Hebrew, Aramaic, Latin, Danish or German in my papers. Latex didn't make that easy. Actually nothing does.
Agreed but I don't think that Paulson ever positioned these as tail risk funds. And his losses aren't small - losing 18-20% per year will have you out of money quick.
