I'll be adding a lot of these; I especially like the "what was I doing..." ones. To continue with the sharing:

up = !git pull --prune $@ && git submodule update --recursive
cm = !git add -A && git commit
save = !git add -A && git commit -m 'SAVEPOINT'
undo = reset HEAD~1 --mixed
amend = commit -a --amend
# Removes branches deleted from remote repo
bclean = "!f() { git branch --merged ${1-master} | grep -v " ${1-master}$" | xargs git branch -d; }; f"
# Leave current branch & do some cleanup
bdone = "!f() { git checkout ${1-master} && git up && git bclean ${1-master}; }; f"
Very quick, nice work. I'm assuming more information and features are coming. Do you have a place to follow along? (Twitter, blog, Github, etc.)

I'm interested in things like a feature road map, privacy policy, business model.

"That's what your startup intends to achieve by creating and dominating a new market. Startups 101. My idea can be done by a number of organizations copying the same template for business, legal, and tech."

I recommend finishing the blog post - our core protocol has no fees and we encourage anyone and everyone to adopt it. This protocol solves the problems of unregulated scalping and counterfeits. We also have a services layer, which is an API anyone can use with usage charges, that help integrate the protocol easier - but we do not force anyone to use these.

So, we intend to dominate the market as a non-profit open protocol that anyone can use to build their applications on top of. It will create more competition in the market, since to differentiate people using the protocol will need to build even more value add services on top to drive users to their applications rather than others.

PDF can contain executable code (JavaScript to be exact), access remote URLs, and has several separate modes of display (which means that document rendered for printing is different than what you see on the screen).

PDF is an old complex format with a lot of features used in a lot of special cases that go light years beyond looking at a simple text file. It's the reason for all the issues, but keeping it useful as it is and magically waving away all issues is not really easy.

Today, Seychelles boasts the highest nominal per capita GDP in Africa, excluding the French regions. It is one of only a handful of countries in Africa with high Human Development Index. Despite the country's newfound economic prosperity, poverty remains widespread due to very high level of income inequality, one of the highest in the world, and low wealth distribution.

This is sort of interesting. Typically trends in high fashion come from the counter culture. The counter culture rejects the mainstream and, either intentionally or unintentionally, their fashion pisses people off. The goal of high fashion is to evoke emotion and fear/anger tend to be easy emotions to get out of people (Imagine your mother reacting to goths in the mall).

It seems, from this example, that some future counter culture fashion could be rooted in traditional formal wear considering how uncomfortable it has made your friend's coworkers feel.

Muneeb from Blockstack here. Yep, many people like Bob Kahn, Vint Cerf, David Clark, Tim Berners-Lee and others helped build the various components of what we today know as the internet.

I'd highly recommend looking at our peer-reviewed research papers at http://blockstack.org/papers. We've been obsessed with performance and scalability and 3-4 years of research, engineering, and hard work went into this.

We already have enough money and are grateful for having investors like Union Square Ventures, Naval Ravikant, Y Combinator, SV Angel, Lux Capital, and others who share our vision. Building a truly decentralized internet will take years/decades and we're looking forward to growing our open-source community that can take on this grand challenge.

The double increment itself isn't undefined behavior. Note that the two increments were separated with a semicolon, making them separate statements. It's equivalent to pzs_text += 2;.

The exploit would presumably involve structuring your data so that the excess increment skips over a terminator of some sort. If it's scanning until it hits a zero byte, and you get it to skip over the zero byte, then you have a buffer overflow.

>free money through rent

What about the money that you spent buying/restoring/maintaining land instead of doing something else?

There's also risks when renting your private property. What if they don't want to leave? You can't kick them out, you need to begin a trial and justice is very slow (it takes at least 2 years and as long as 10 years in Argentina and I've heard it's the same on most countries of the EU). And it's not like you'll get your money back (the losses of not renting that property while it was occupied plus judicial expenditures).

I agree that there are people who own lots of land and properties, but it's their right because they used their money for it, instead of doing something else.

Eto is very interesting but unfortunately there seems to be just 1 (very active) developer behind it, from what I can see.

On the other hand, Xamarin.Forms had an announcement recently, an announcement that Hacker News missed. I submitted the news a few days ago but it didn't reach the first page:

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14383467 ->

https://blog.xamarin.com/glimpse-future-xamarin-forms-3-0/

TL;DR:

Xamarin.Forms will support desktop environments:

- Windows (WPF)

- MacOS (Cocoa)

- Linux (GTK#)

This is on top of the mobile bits: iOS, Android, UWP.

As an added bonus, they've added Xamarin.Forms embedding into native interfaces.

It's actually major news since Xamarin.Forms would become the first cross platform UI toolkit that:

1. supports both desktop and mobiles

2. is backed by a major vendor

3. is truly usable from a memory managed language as part of the core offering

For those who can't stand that endless stream of bs.
Larry from Blockstack here.

Yes! Users should be in control of their data and Blockstack enables this. There are also practical advantages for developers.

User control of data means you don't have to have the responsibility and cost that comes along with storing other people's information. With lots of user data, you're a valuable target for hackers and governments. It also frees you from maintaining expensive backend infrastructure and devops. This lets your app scale without a huge bill from your favorite cloud infrastructure provider.
No, you don't need the whole internet.

You can't run application code with just pure HTML. The processing code has to run somewhere. Blockstack runs it using Javascript in your browser, and with bring your own storage.

Only naming (identity) is pegged to Bitcoin, blockstack has a virtual blockchain on top of this which has functionality akin to DNS (and CA). That DNS can point to your storage, so you can have things on Dropbox or Amazon S3 or wherever.

So it scales pretty well, you don't download what you're not interested it. It will work with a lot of infrastructre/services that exist, but you can cut out a lot of middle men.

You could host your application code on your Amazon S3. But when a user runs it, the app can store private data in THEIR chosen storage. And if you have public data, that could be either stored with their chosen storage without encryption (only signature) so it is public, or indeed you could store it in your application storage.
It's possible to make arbitrarily sophisticated websites without serving any HTML except a script tag. The browser shows you HTML to represent the DOM, but it doesn't mean sites are serving any significant amount of it. (most still are though - I was just pointing out that it's possible to avoid it almost completely)

Thing is that the ES index which could fit in memory still performs slowly for full db query.
I also have aliases in my shell instead of git aliases.

st git status ...
gl git log ...
gd git diff ...
gg gitg
gup git pull --rebase
gb git branch

The dots mean there are more arguments. The point is, every once in a while I analyse my shell history and add aliases for the most used commands. Looking at it now, it seems I should add aliases for `git push` and `vi Makefile`.

I also have the aliases g for git, m for make, and v for vim.

The original comment to rewrite VLC in rust was mostly sarcasm. Sure, if every app and library was rewritten in rust without using the unsafe features, we'd see a lot fewer of these kinds of bugs. But it's going to be a long long time before we live in that kind of world. That doesn't mean people can't start today - imagine if the top 5 codecs were written in a safe language, then they could warn users about "less safe" content for anything else without pissing off too many users. Maybe. And that alone is a big job.

Nothing you wrote before this suggests any agreement. I believe you actually are in a fair degree of agreement now, but your approach to communication didn't convey that and you should review it if you intend to be constructive.

It's not a-priori correctness, but a-priori precedence, or respect. You live in a society, you benefit from society, you would not be capable of starting a business without society, so you shouldn't casually dismiss society. Basically all I'm saying is that you need a good reason to break the rules. "This makes it harder for me to make money" is not a good reason. "There's no other way to achieve my worthwhile goal" is a good reason.

What is “Hack with GitHub”?
Taiwan, a former Japanese colony, has a few companies which follow Japanese corporate traditions.

A friend worked for EVA Air in the back office, and besides having to wear a uniform similar to that of flight or gate staff, she said every morning at 9 am people would have to stand at their desks and do calisthenics that were broadcast over a loudspeaker. She said this was something the founder had picked up from visiting or interacting with Japanese companies in the 60s and 70s.

At one company I worked at, a television network, they issued male staff with blue blazers but we never had to wear them during the course of the business day. I think the idea was we could throw them on in case some big shot came to visit.
Are there any credit card companies or banks offering cards that will not participate?

> Usually, thinking about these issues yields some apparent cause of error that would explain the unexpected results without violating one's basic beliefs. Unfortunately, an apparent reason for disbelief can often be found even if the results truly are impeccable. Often, the result is that doubters continue their disbelief, and the believers continue believing, until one faction or the other retires from the field and the other belief becomes "consensus".

This is a wonderfully succinct statement of the problem. It's not that no one can find a weakness in Bem's work, it's that no one can find a principled weakness, something that invalidates his result without invalidating more respectable results at the same time.

For scientists, this is an important guide to improving research practices. For the rest of us, it's largely a warning to continue relying on base rates, and not update too strongly even in the face of solid-looking results. With every failed replication, that's going to get even worse.

Perhaps the Indian society can't find commonalities to organize beyond tribes (aka 'jati' 'caste'). Of course it's not really 'caste' since the grouping is voluntary, but who are you going to shout at about etymology (the epistemology of an Indian means exactly nothing just so you know).

I feel like the author of this article hasn't worked in silicon valley, because it doesn't touch at all
on what I feel is the cultural significance of casual attire: Wearing what you want says that your employer values you for your brain, not your willingness to conform. Formal dress runs counter to cultures that value lateral thinking, iconoclasm, and non-conformism; all the things that have made silicon valley successful.

A suit says "I am an interchangeable cog." Normal clothing says that you're an individual with identity and tastes.

(Plus it is hopelessly uncool to be/work for squares).
This is an opinion that may trigger some people on HN. Don't take it personally, it's not an attack.

I like dressing up for work, because it shows you care about what you're doing. Nowadays, it seems every silicon valley company tests in production (Facebook, Google Docs, Even some parts of Android) because they just don't care about quality or user experience.

I miss the days of getting a release ready and patched, having very high confidence we worked the bugs out of everything before shipping it to the customer, with a list of features we added or things we fixed. It built up a lot of excitement too, customers would anticipate and ask for updates, eager to deploy them or test them out.

Maybe it's the background I worked in (it's been medical software or insurance claims processing)... so it actually matters if things work correctly the first time.
