I was under the impression that that had always been allowed by the protocol, it's just an implementation detail on if a node will relay the tx and which tx the miner will choose.
Another great example of evolutionary wonders in birds is the albatross. They have a tendon sheath that allows them to lock their wings open. This, combined with their giant wingspan, their relative heft (albatrosses are porkers), and some mysterious sensory mechanism and they are able to take advantage of wind gradients to perform a maneuver called "dynamic soaring", wherein the bird extracts energy from the wind. Scientists have measured the heartrate of soaring albatrosses, and found it to be not much higher than their resting heart rate. Albatrosses use this advantage to journey thousands of miles across the pacific, without landing once.

So, a keynote on conference about a dying language has mentioned that another, unrelated language is dying. And people are taking notice.

It does not make sense.
It could all be under the same AWS account, and all using the same IAM role. It's just that the role doesn't have access to anything. It can write logs to its own function-specific log group and read from them potentially.

Also, a hell of a lot of work went into this feature. You can try setting this infrastructure up yourself if you think it will save you money. You already know they're using Lambda!
Wow. I am really sorry for you. You and I live in very different worlds, and have very different relationships with our wives.

Just... Yeah, I'm really sorry to hear that.
There's a fundamental problem here, and I don't know how it should be addressed. I agree that manufacturers should be able to silently patch firmware for security holes. But I decidedly do not want them silently adding, removing, or changing functionality.

I find this practice absolutely infuriating, and it's a big reason why I abhor the current IoT ecosystem. Sometimes I get busy and don't have time to read a changelog, and I don't want to have to do this on someone else's schedule.

There seems to be no technical way to allow manufacturers to provide transparent security updates without also allowing them to pull the rug out from under you when you least expect it. I think we need some sort of social contract for this, but unfortunately my view seems to be a minority one, given the amount of bullshit that the public seems to tolerate from self-updating devices and apps.
You are mistaken. Materialism does offer a clean and consistent explanation of your experience of reality.

Quartzy (YC S11) is hiring a software engineer (marketplace)
Hi I agree with a lot of the positive comments here. Take the money ASAP and go on a nice vacation. Do what you afterward. If I were ever a founder and sold off a company with a big check, I would go back to shool, get my master degree, and become an adjunct teaching. I enjoy that more than coding all day. So bite it, talk to your wife, see a therapist (I am depressed myself) and begin to offload your work to someone else. Remember many founders would leave after aqusitions probably felt the same as you ("they come in and want to take over a product I built")

It sounded like you are attached to your work and if so I understand because you were a co-founder. I am also very attached to my work but I am beginning to build up resistance. I just keep reminding myself if at some point I stop finding my job fun and enjoyful, then I need to find an exit, just like I would go home if I haven't slept for teo days.

Find and do the thing(s) you enjoy doing now. You wil be happier.
> This is built into browsers?

Yup, unfortunately, browsers often have to do revocation (and SCT) checks because traditional servers like Apache and nginx don't staple OCSP responses by default (and even if they are configured to do so, the implementations in these servers are not robust against outages).

Firefox checks OCSP for DV certs, but that will be disabled in a near-future release.
Why wouldn't you wait until acquisition closes and then decide to quit or not.

Quitting before the acquisition is ... harmful?

Sure, but there's no evidence that that is happening at all, and if it did the mailing list would die. People aren't getting fired over things that came up on YAG. People aren't getting disciplinary action over things on YAG. People aren't being passed over for promotions over things on YAG. What real (not hypothetical) harm is there?
Xor is amazing. Look into it and you'll find it shits out fractals like they are nothing
The problem here is the founder thinks he / she is so indispensable that it would fail if he quit. So taking a week off for vacation is likely to just lead to more stress.

However, the longer vacation is good advice. When I was severely burned out at a previous job (start-up) I was eventually fired because I couldn't continue the 70 hours a week and have the same, high output as I originally did when I started (I was averaging 70 hours a week for almost two years in addition to a long commute time and this is after working with the same people at a job before that where I was working about the same 70 hours for almost 3 years where I was also expected to have high output).

When that happened I ended up having roughly 3 months off of work. Joined a new company and it was amazing. My burn-out, which plagued me for years and caused an anxiety attack so strong I thought I was going to die of a heart attack (very severe chest pain; tried explaining to my 2 year old what to do if "daddy passes out") to feel essentially dissolved.

Burn out isn't fixed within your typical vacation period at a job. Most of my friends who have been, or are still, burned out have never had it go away until after taking months of time off.
The only facts so far are that dissenters have until mid-August to make their side known.

The trick is they want you to feel powerless and that nothing can be done, that it's already too late. Your original comment shows you are falling for it.

The means they are using to perform this trickery is to convince you that it is too much for any one person to make a difference. "Their minds are already made up". This kind of trickery only works on uneducated and weak people.

The blackouts worked before because they disrupted, at least a little bit, the everyday lives of important people and non-important people alike ... because a lot of people worked in concert together to be heard/noticed as one.

I'll refrain from responding to the snide remarks by rmccoy6435; suffice it to say that if there is one thing that a subreddit can do well, it's help people organize w.r.t. their constitutional right to assemble[1] in the name of free speech and thus show strength in numbers. Losing net neutrality could theoretically take that away, too.

The entire concept of a “bank fee” is insane. “Interest” is supposed to mean that the bank pays YOU a not-insignificant amount in exchange for using your money (otherwise, you could put your money anywhere, and not use their services!). Yet you need to keep thousands of dollars hung up, out of reach, to amass more than a few pennies of “interest”. Meanwhile, a single ATM will cost more than you probably gain from a YEAR of interest income, and the slightest error will result in a fee that burns a couple of days of lunch money.

Then the bank has the audacity to drag its damned feet to let you transfer money between banks, usually taking several days (even though debits go through so fast you weren’t even sure you’d clicked the BUTTON yet).

And this is all before we even consider that banks are probably selling your information, and they have been caught intentionally rearranging transactions to maximize fee collection, etc.

This doesn’t mean that banks are completely useless (bill payments are quite convenient, etc.) but let’s not pretend they don’t need several laws put in place to turn them back into good citizens.

Regarding the second point, why didn't you just define your own let macro?

As a Java->Clojure guy I find better readability of Clojure's let compared to CL's support of transpose an acceptable tradeoff, but the point of being a lisp is that you are not constrained by all decisions of the boss?
> they're effectively reselling Lambda

Another take on this is that they're creating value for customers by shifting the reliability requirements from the customers themselves to AWS / lambda

... which I think is brilliant.
I can't find the quote for the of me, but it was from Rich Hickey and went something like: "First, you use Clojure to escape Java. Then, you use Clojure to write better Java."

I definitely found it to be true. Clojure takes the good parts of Java's OO system.

"much of the compensation coming from future earnings" why bother selling if you are stuck in the company anyway? You are saying: I will give the company to somebody and that person will give me its price when and if he sells. This is a ripoff, not an acquisition . It doesn't work that way.
Well, as the article lays out, it's a little more complicated than the leg joints just locking into place. They couldn't figure out how the leg was locking. It's only when they engaged the lock (by picking up the bird by the shin) that they realized the entire body reconfigures to achieve the needed stability:

> When a flamingo shifts onto one leg, two things happen. First, the leg inclines so that the foot moves from being directly under the hip to being directly under the center of the body. Second, the center of mass moves to just in front of the flamingo’s (hidden) knee, so its body weight naturally pulls the hip and knee forward. These two changes, combined with gravity’s pull and the shape of the leg bones, keeps all the joints in place.

Well, you're about to be acquired. Tough it out, insist on being paid in cash and live long and happily ever after. Simple!

The idea that you are essential to allow the company to be acquired is most likely nonsense, I've yet to meet someone that could not be replaced with some goodwill and hard work to transfer responsibilities. Better that than to have someone that does not really want to work!

I would recommend investing in a CEO or Executive Coach. It is lonely at the top even with mentors and spouses. Hiring my CEO Coach years ago was among the best decisions I have ever made on any level. It paid for itself immediately – certainly from a financial perspective, but also (and more importantly) from an emotional and mental health perspective. This, in turn, allowed me to see things through new eyes and push through barriers I otherwise was stuck behind. I became a better leader, a better husband, and a better person as a result, and I transformed my life and my company in the process. Not sure if it's kosher or not to push someone's services here but I don't really care; this particular coach changed my life for the better, and I know he could change yours too.

That indeed was a complete turn-off. I had it in five minutes. Also, I'm sort of done with the JVM - it seems to breed large, complex things that are hard to manage. If I want a Lisp, I'll install Emacs and SBCL - there's not much the JVM has to offer that makes it a must-have.
No where in this post did it imply that his wife has this behavior. HN nerds have a really bad habit of conflating and projecting. I'm sorry about your father, but you can't infer that about his wife from the given information; the severity of that implication is why your experience is as extraordinary and makes it difficult to buy that his wife is the problem.

Imagine if we were advising him to remain silent about this to his close business associates. Would we advise an engineer having a rough go of it to not talk to their manager? Would you advise a student to not talk to a parent if they were having a really hard time at school? What benefit would remaining unproductively silent about these problems other than choking on your own poison?
I don't understand why you're being down voted. Most women can't handle adversity, especially if she doesn't work and relies on your income. Two relationships ended due to me losing my job and essentially coming clean saying I was depressed. In hindsight, they lost respect for me. People say you aren't your job, but psychologically it really is.

I would say instead of 'Do not talk to your wife' I would say 'Do not only talk to your wife'. Your wife will have her own biases and motives, maybe towards your financial success more than your happiness. Or maybe she only wants you to be happy regardless of how other people are affected. Get a range of opinions. If you are considering drastic moves, experiencing burnout, definitely talk with a therapist. A therapist will definitely know how to help you work to the core of your issues and feel better.

What point in a response which merely says "you're wrong"? I believe I covered the substance of the matter adequately in my own prior comment, sibling to yours; I must confess I fail to see what worthwhile contribution to the discussion you intend to make here. Perhaps you'd like to elucidate?
Let me add my voice to those already suggesting a therapist. There are a number of options you can take for each of the many things that are piling up in your head and heart, but I believe the only one that is non-negotiable is this one. Let me describe one possible way this may work for you:

- It will feel weird to open up to a stranger, and in the very beginning it may ADD to your stress; you will find reasons to cancel the session. Don't.

- It will level up quickly and after a few sessions, you will likely start to see improvements. The sessions may still feel a burden, but by now you know you do not cancel or skip them.

- Don't expect your entire outlook and days to be wholesome better, you may still have crisis like you described - the important thing is that you will also have more moments of energy and positive thinking. Use those highs to prepare your mind and agenda for the lows.

Other thoughts that may help:

- Making yourself less necessary may not be tactically wise right before the acquisition, but rest assured, afterwards it WILL be. Under stress time may pass too slowly, but it does pass, and you will get there.

- One or two trusted and loving family members may offer excellent emotional support, without the day-to-day baggage that may have made you feel you needed to hide from your wife. They will love you no matter your mistakes and weaknesses.

- A good friend you can talk to that has no ties to anything else that worries you - no direct link to your work or family. They can offer an objective point of view and help you plan, strategize and clarify the situations you face. And their mere presence will remind you that you are not alone, that you are worthy by who you are and how you are.

- I can't tell you how to involve your wife in your current plight. Ideally she could be one or more of the above, but life is not perfect. If you don't feel you can fully do it, do what you can and figure it out (possibly with marriage counsel) after you are feeling better and with less weight on your shoulders.

- Find some activity, even if it is infrequent or short, that is yours and yours only, and absolutely enjoyable for you. A TV show, a hobby, gym, swimming, a game, writing. Keep your support group 100% in the loop so they can help you keep it at a healthy level (they ensure that you do it, but they don't let you escape into it and neglect your "real" life).

All the best.
Fear of losing something really does impact social interactions, especially when it comes to asking for what you want, confrontations, or just saying no. I'm working on expressing myself more gently.

I was one of them. I was doing some web design/frontend at that time (2005-2006), and the whole Ruby on Rails movement seemed so different, easy to learn, and yet quite productive.
And you could develop on a Mac (!!!. Windows XP was my OS at that time). All the rails screencasts I saw featured TextMate, on a Mac.
And so the first ActionScript gig I did was to pay for my shiny new Mac Mini.

Looking back to it, it seems like a stupid cargo cult effect, but Rails is the main reason I switched to the Mac since then.
