Perhaps there's an athletic nuance as well - a roped-in climber can rest at any point during the climb by just hanging there, whereas a free-soloer can only rest at certain ledges along the way that naturally let him do that. It takes crazy stamina and self-discipline.

Overall I agree with you that most of the feat seems to be about the risk, but there may be more to it (I'm not a climber).

the problem that arrives there almost instantly is that people want to see a list of filenames.

If you're ever going to do some sort of "displaying" of data, you cannot store it as bytes. You need to know what characters things are supposed to be presented as.

You could imagine not settling on a specific encoding, but you must know the encoding. Unless your plan is to show a list of numbers to users.

Trivial fun OT fact: a petard is an archaic word to describe a bomb or similar explosive device, so it would make more sense to write "hoist by its own petard", i.e. blown into the air by its own bomb.
Ask HN: Building an MVP without a designer in 2017?
For a developer building an MVP, what tools do you recommend to use for a project, without a designer?
- App is not a throw-away project, can be incremented into a professional, beautiful app
- No designer available as stated above
- A designer WILL be hired in the future

The only options I can think of:
- Bootstrap / Semantic-ui (Can these be customized and used for years ahead or do they require extirpation)
- Copy other designs and pray your code won't be to hard to turn into a great design in the future
The Atlas project itself has some interesting stuff, including a custom programming language (http://www.liegroups.org/software/documentation/atlasofliegr...) with parts written in literate C++ (e.g. https://github.com/jeffreyadams/atlasofliegroups/blob/master...)!
This is exactly what happened with the platforms you mentioned. Affiliates and other direct response advertisers are willing to take a chance on a new ad platform because the costs are generally low, and the returns can be really good.

Then, once the big brands come to play, the platforms change what ads are deemed acceptable and start kicking off those that started out using the platform.

You nailed it.

Fossil [0] is a great alternative in some cases. It includes a bug tracker and wiki, and it's much simpler than git.

Not that I'd suggest using it for every scenario, but being aware of alternatives is always a good thing.

I can't do it in two sentences, but this is approximately the version I teach to first-year non-CS undergrads:

A problem is called "NP" if I can give you a solution to it and you can easily verify that the solution is correct. For example, "find 3 different odd numbers that together add up to ten" (here's a possible solution: 3, 5, 7). What's awesome about this is that there are a lot of problems of that form where we don't know whether or not it's possible to find a solution to the problems before dying of old age -- or before the sun runs out of fuel, even though you could check the answer in a few minutes using pencil and paper. Nobody has ever figured out how to solve them fast, but it's a huge open question of whether they can be solved fast. The P = NP question is whether there exists a fast solution to any problem that you can verify easily if I give you a solution.

And it's not just of theoretical interest: some those problems underlie everything from cryptography (communicating and storing information securely using encryption) to things like optimizing airline routes or the way UPS chooses where to route packages. Amazingly, there's a set of problems that if you find way to solve any one of them fast, you can solve all problems in NP fast. Which means the NSA and everyone else will try to kidnap you to find out the secret. Fortunately, most people who study it don't think that there's a solution. But it's one of the most famous and important problems in computing, and nobody -- of some of the smartest people in the field -- has ever managed to prove it either way.

(Truth in advertising: We actually use subset sum as the example, and walk through it a little, but that's because we're trying to teach it in more detail than just telling the story. And have also taught a handwavy version of asymptotic analysis. If you want to show someone how hard it gets quickly, subset sum is a nice way to do it. The "talking" example above is, of course, an instance of subset sum, but it doesn't explain the general form of the problem.)
By cheating death, one becomes famous. The article and this thread is proof of that. Being famous supplies many advantages and privileges.
"..people who have taste similar to mine are a much better way to find things than any algorithm Pinterest has ever released"

Yep, I could not have said it better. Pinterest is now intent on serving us up predigested pap, while at the same time serving us up more literally to advertisers. Item: It's impossible now to discover who else likes a pin that you love. It's bewildering, it's a sea-change, and it effectively renders Pinterest useless to me now.

> does it provide any advantage that the code was already written and api's work etc in the other language

If you build your models to be an exact fit with your current data, yes.

> Based on the website and code base i have, i just want a rough estimate..are we talking 2 weeks, 2 months or 6 months here to rebuild in a new language?

That's like asking a consultant for a time estimate when they don't know all the details. Factors include:

- How much python you know already

- How long does it take for you to grasp the fundamentals of virtual environments, packages, importing, etc.

> trying to see if something can be reused or is it gonna be a total build from scatch new website..

- Good point: If you end up keeping old API's running on the PHP side and just migrating the HTML stuff first, or only. That is a shortcut to get going faster.

- How much templating you have to do. But I think you can do that in maybe (2 Weeks). Django templates are easy to learn and you can extend from a common base.

- Database models. I think you should try the inspectdb thing ASAP as a trial to see how easy it is to display any data from your current schema. Be sure to use a copy (or sample) of your prod data in a separate staging database though. You could do that tonight. Getting everything (relations and all) to map perfectly (ORM -> your current db schema) could take a couple of weeks to get perfect. Use this 'managed = False': https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.11/howto/legacy-database...

- Development hosting: I recommend trying out Heroku. The deployment is straight forward. But outside of that you're going to have to wrap your brain around how to deploy it. nginx + uwsgi + supervisor is a common combo if you're doing it right on the server.

- Business logic: Most of this is done inside your views. This could take a month or so.

Since django is a big framework and these things work in tandem, it could be 3-6 months. Remember to build it in parallel so the PHP site can continue to be maintained if needed. And create a staging database that's based off your production schema with some sample data in there.

Also while you do this, you're going to continually get faster as you gain mastery with python.

For a speed boost, you can continue to keep API's running in PHP while you convert other stuff over first.
This sounds like preliminary research spun into health recommendations that are unjustified and possibly dangerous. What else is new.
> Here's the question: If you could Free-solo the same wall but with without (or greatly reduced) danger? That is, hypothetically assume there's tracks installed vertically in the wall, and a robot that you are attached to ascends with you, so if you fall the robot keeps you from falling far and getting hurt. Does that somehow dampen the feeling of achievement when completed? If the answer is yes, then I fail to see how it's not about cheating death in some part.

There are certainly climbers who COULD repeat the climb in the same style, if they were guaranteed they couldn't fall to their death (Tommy Caldwell being one of them). And yes, without the risk the achievement definitely doesn't seem as impressive (moon landing?).

But I don't think Alex see's it like he's "cheating death". Instead more of "confidence in mastery of ones skill and mind" to a point where the crazy & impossible seems realistic.
Instead of "gender", you should make it "preferred pronoun".
I love scraping and hate it too. I have limited experience with it, but some clients want you to web scrape competitors sites to steal their customer list etc. It is a matter of ethics. I tried C# and a few other languages and it didn't work because some Javascript on the site had anti-scraping script. I declined the offer, as I didn't want to get sued by their competitor they wanted me to web scrape.

Web scraping is going the way webbots work now. Have to scrape data to automate stuff.

Free soloing is "inherently easier" in the physical sense when you abstract danger from situation, climbing with ropes slows a team down significantly. That is one of the reasons AH was able to climb the route in 4 hours as opposed to the usual 4 days.

In your hypothetical scenario the answer is yes, if there is no danger, the achievement of climbing without ropes is lessened.

The experience of free soloing is to small degree about cheating death, at least as much as watching a movie is about seeing moving colors and hearing sounds. What one really gets from free soloing (or risky rock climbing, which I have some experience with) is a unique clarity of mind, a change in ego, a confidence game, where you need to quash your own doubts about yourself to succeed. The consequences of falling are a necessary but insufficient condition for the resultant feeling of achievement. In my opinion, AH, and his ability to control his mind, is the closest living example we have to a Jedi.

Yes you can and it will:

* add another entry to the global routing table thus nullifying a benefit of IPv6

* cost a bloody fortune (approx £5,000 per year)

* is your mum able to ask for BGP peering

I am personally able to pay the price for PI but not everyone is and that is my fucking point. Why should your mum not be able to ask for a internet connection that is able to tolerate a failure?

There is NPT but it is simply NAT via another name.

I've been running IPv6 at home for quite a long time. I passed the WAF at least two years ago.

Any more ideas?

Absolutely this. SMS 2FA has security flaws that are becoming ever more evident - U2F via NFC is a great way to authenticate on Android, and I'm looking forward to having it on iOS as well.

Edit: Welp. Looking at the U2F NFC spec it looks like some exchange with the key needs to occur, so without transmit access we're boned.
My school used this online grade management system and the students access to it was really bad and only showed the letter grade for each calss average. So I made a python app to manage all your grades and calculate the by scarping the online site using python. I sold the app and made some money so i don't know if you can do the same. Otherwise just keep learning and follow everyone else's advise.

Isn't that the nature of the thing though? If he could have completed it, you'd be reading a finished novel. You'd have to kind of squint and try to look through the trees to the set of places he might have been heading.
Why is that that people expect for Apple to completely dominate every single industry in all possible metrics. And all their software packages not only have all the advantages of all the other competitors, plus many more, and no disadvantages?

Did Tim Cook or any of the people that work there promise they were the messiah and I didn’t catch that?
"Does that somehow dampen the feeling of achievement when completed? If the answer is yes, then I fail to see how it's not about cheating death in some part."

It's a good question...but I think only Alex could answer that question for himself.

I can say that the feat would not be as impressive because fear management and mental control are a huge part of climbing. As you move from top roping to sport leading (clipping your rope to preplaced hangers) to trad leading (placing your protective gear into cracks or other features in the rocks and trusting it to hold you if you fall) the risk increases and the fear start to become more of a factor.

I've seen climbers that have been perfectly physically capable of making a move but have been so gripped with fear that they couldn't move (and I've been that climber). I've done multipitch climbs (where you climb multiple rope lengths) where at the end of the climb I'm completely exhausted. Not from the physical exertion, but rather from the mental exertion of keeping fear at bay and from the sheer focus that climbing takes.

And honestly, I can see the appeal of free soloing. Protective gear is a giant pain in the ass. It's heavy. It's noisy. On lead the weight of the rope can become a very present annoyance, especially if you're on a long pitch. I would love for there to be the magical robot of your hypothesis that allowed me to climb without all that shit. But such a thing doesn't exist and my personal risk envelope has not expanded to free soloing (nor will it).

Well in this case the preliminary science looks plausible. In the 10 years since this preliminary trial nobody has bothered doing a placebo controlled trial of this bacteria for depression, so it's probably reasonable to spin it a bit.
I would imagine the startup life skews young in general because older age tends to mean more responsibilities, and at some point if you haven't been successful with a startup you'll tend towards a more traditional position for those reasons? "Startup Veteran" is kind of an amusing phrase.

Reinvent VMS-style clustering on BSD/Linux boxes or just buy some VMS servers. They measured uptime in years to decades for tech that started in the 80's. There should be several, modern solutions like that given companies were developing them a long time ago when I first looked into such things. I just haven't surveyed to see what exists, is reliable, and is affordable.

They could also have a base version of the site that's read-only for source or binaries to allow customers access to the data to fall back to whenever problems happen in more complex functions. Keep it running in some form while they fix things. They might also similarly sell Git appliances w/ high-availability that themselves plug into multiple colo's or cloud providers mirroring changes in the repo to the Github site. Just a wild idea as I have no idea if that's marketable.

Not to mention there is no int128_t in C. You have to use poorly defined byte arrays to pass the thing around. It's irritating af.
I think it has more to do with agency than thrills.. You could look at that as cheating death, but it's not quite the same as jumping 20 buses on a Triumph and just hoping you don't break all your bones cause, you know, it just seems to happen to you frequently and maybe this time it won't.

The game is just different. The mental state is different. The focus is different.

Look, ignore the utility differences between scooting around on your butt and walking, running, or cycling. The sense of agency involved is simply different. They are also, possibly, more risky than scooting around on your butt.

Bowling without bumpers has a different feel to it than with; even if you never touch them. It's not so much about cheating the gutter; the agency, the feel, the game is different.

It's hard to explain why free solo > trad > sport > top roping for some. But it has everything to do with risk while having nothing to do with risk.
I'm at a 250 EE company with very small ops budget and I built a stable and modular account planning and CRM system (when we had 150 EEs) that uses structured + validated + protected Google Sheets for user inputs and some viz, Alteryx as the ETL, and Tableau (Reader) as the visualization. Took half a junior person and half a senior person to maintain it for 100 clients and 200 users. It has served well as a prototype for our Salesforce installation this year, which has enabled us to decommission half of the modules in the Google Sheets system. If we had gone straight from nothing to Salesforce it would have induced shock in most of our employees, and our data and processes would not have been ready to just drop into Salesforce. In my mind, that is the best use case for a spreadsheet 'app' ... build it from the start with the goal of it being a transitional tool to a 3rd party app, nudging users along the way to professional processes.
The older I get, the more I realize: pretty much every organization everywhere is highly flawed in some (usually many) ways. This has been an extremely useful observation in my career and life, and I have found exactly zero exceptions.
Its a multi pitch route. There are multiple ledges that can be comfortably sat on. Assuming the injury isn't to catastrophic he could make it to one of those points and be rescued.

That being said anyone trying to claim the climb isn't "pure" enough it mental.
This article is actually pretty incredible.

This is a systemic problem in computing. Knowing what is contained in the code running on your machine. What's the solution? Is there one? Force all users to compile all code before running?

I worked at a consulting company about a decade ago that designed an indoor tracking system. It could track a device to within a meter, and that was no trivial undertaking. I always have a laugh when I see some startup making a child tracker/pet tracker using iBeacon. You need a large array of radios to track the beacons, you have to model the physics of the building's construction (absorption, Rayleigh scattering, etc), account for multiple floors, and come up with a working algorithm that combines all the RSSI readings to produce a precise location.
You're​ right that ipv6 is the future. However that does not mean it is impossible to find flaws in it. For some people, having 128 bits instead of 64 is a flaw.

I still believed their "privacy in our walled garden" stance, it's not like that required flattering them.
