Looking good. Nice to see there is a small little market for this type of thing.
Already too political. Greenpeace's focus on GMOs is bordering on absurd. Would recommend Cradle to Grave as a great book and primer on Sustainability.
Please tell us about your Satoshi hunt without revealing personal details ;)
They can't even manage the managed servers, it has issues too many times
Project Thunderwell: http://www.abovetopsecret.com/forum/thread4434/pg1 - which was also mentioned in one of the articles linked by another poster - seems to be exactly that - I think it was determined to be too expensive / unlikely to produce a viable result!
I wasn't even thinking of it, but this would be an opportunity for me to go back to dvorak. I switched to qwerty when I started using vim.
You are right, it has more to do with it not being inline with the ideas of the open web, and not liking the prospects of where this can take us.
Apologies for an unrelated question but, what is the formal name of this chart indicated in the blog?

5 Countries Where Tech Is Thriving
To me this article feels like bandwagoning and hearsay. I am all for the critical attention aimed at Google, but there is simply no teeth to this story at all.

Edit: Thanks guys for the criticism about using the word hearsay in this context. I'll never use it that way again, pinky promise.

Team culture is a huge part of what makes Gusto special. We have a team of super-sharp, passionate, hard-working, and friendly software engineers. You can read more about us on our engineering blog: http://engineering.gusto.com/

Some of the technologies we use: Ruby/Rails, JavaScript, and React.js.

Interview process: 1 technical phone screen and 1 onsite interview (~4.5 hours of interviews + pair programming)
I take this phrase as meaning something like this: "Since we're in the business of testing phones, we see a lot of different phones, and we noticed that more and more have nixed the jack."
LED lights and a smart or scheduled thermostat that reduces consumption when you're not at home. If you're in a hot environment make sure your attic is nice and ventilated, and possibly consider a radiant barrier.
That's because these companies management loves to develop by committee that comes with agilie, points, IPMs and standups. When a voice of expert is assigned the same weight as the voice of a Joe Random Developer and there are more Joe Random Developers than experts, you end up with garbage fire of systems.
Does microtype work equally well on Lualatex and Pdflatex these days? That stopped me from switching years ago.
Not 'amyjess, but the rightest answer I've found (and I do a lot of this stuff) is to use a Bunyan-style one-JSON-object-per-line log file and ship to something that can consume it (ELK, CloudWatch Logs, whatever). AWS CWL is dirt cheap and the awslogs daemon, while pretty far from perfect, does work pretty well. You can also couple it with CloudWatch Metrics.
Hmm, I would say wordpress hosted via their website (so not wordpress.org where you download a big php thing and self-host), or one of the many website builder tools like squarespace or whatever. Blogger is free, but I'd argue it's far from "reasonably attractive" by 2017 standards. I don't think it's seen an update in years.

I don't think on medium you can do something like have blog.yourname.com point to your blog, such that you can do blog.yourname.com/writing/how-to-blahblah be one article, etc. Maybe you can't even do that on wordpress.com, now that I think about it.
The two other terminal multiplexers I know of are GNU screen and tmux. GNU screen defines its own “screen” terminal type in terminfo, and tmux shamelessly re-uses it and claims to be “screen-256color” (screen with 256 colors). So I don’t think there is any good way to avoid it.
You're arguing against an imaginary group of mindless AMP haters instead of the actual group of people very concerned with the far reaching implications of AMP on the open web. If it's not your concern, move on.
I was given the perma-ignore treatment by a Talent Acquisition rep at WeedMaps for a SWE position that was effectively a subset of my existing job (I exceeded the listed requirements) after providing a resume.

The resume should have clearly shown my qualifications, but did include some very old stuff including dozens of PHP sites.

Not sure if ageism, poor resume optimization, or something else but feedback was (and still is!) welcome.
H1B data is public. You can see exactly how much they are offering H1Bs, which most people assume to be lowballing. The median for Google is $127K, but that includes junior engineers. Sort by salary to see the senior roles.

And then remember that this is just base salary. Usually, the RSUs are almost equal to the salary when granted, and sometimes double in value over the four years they vest.

Not necessaarily. A platform can provide value and make a profit. Consider Amazon A2Z Marketplace sellers, who do get to know their buyers. But customers prefer the experience on A2Z over the sellers own website.

See also Android (Google Play Store), where app builders are able to get to know their users (subject to some possibly controversial platform constraints).

Of course one can always do better for oneself by intermediating and rent-seeking on a platform.
There are a lot of us and the statement was "definitely not going to." It's not my fault that the post contained absolute statements.
Had a similar idea a while ago but correct me if I'm wrong, this service sets you up on a call with a rubber duck (an image I suppose) for x time? Are you using Google Hangouts API?

It's true. Driving tanks across borders is their job!
Which in turn creates a supply pressure which allows companies to lower the pay.

Harvey is likely to be the second-most costly natural disaster in U.S. history
Ah. In that case:

> that's not a type, since it is trivially unsound

You are misunderstanding what a type is. A type is just a subset of all of the possible data values in a language. Types by themselves don't do anything.
Set your goals high for the project instead, achieving your goals can never be considered over-engineering. Don't let the scope creep into "oh I should totally spend 30 hours on this form design"
I'd say no. We can't compartmentalize things like this. I fully support bringing in foreign talent but the logic is flawed. I want lower wages across the economy but the conversation must start in the board room. Nobody, other than the investor, should be making more than a certain multiplier of the minimum wage. The CEO who got fired from HP and went on to be the CEO at Oracle? Is there a shortage of CEOs? I'm sure if you look within your organization, you'll find at least one person willing to bite the bullet and become your next CEO if you need.

Sorry if this was a little off topic. I feel uneasy about our growing inequality in our economy but we can't fix it outside of the boardroom. Did you know that board members get paid? I surely didn't until not too long ago. Why do they get paid? I mean I'm not talking compensation for travel. I'm talking six figure compensation. Do we have a shortage of people who are willing to sit on your board?
the article nailed it: for an "uber for x" to work, it requires (1) commodity, low skill service combined with (2) on demand scheduling.

one thing it's 2x2 matrix implies is that both taxi services and delivery services share a common appropriateness as "good" automatable services. but that's not true. they certainly differ on the scheduling metric - delivery is not nearly as on-demand as taxi service.

but there is another, more important variable that differentiates these two: lcationality.

while a taxi service can start and end anywhere, delivery services are constrained to start at particular locations, which makes logistics and routing the primary challenge to overcome. you have to get vehicles to the pickup point each time, which wastes time and money. delivery companies try to overcome this in a variety of ways:

1) trying to deliver "anything" (deliv, postmates) to approximate a more even geographic distribution of pickup points

2) subsidizing delivery through membership (amazon)

3) making delivery incidental to the core service (instacart is a marketing channel disguised as a delivery service)

i'm sure there are dozens of other ways that companies are trying to overcome this inherent last-mile logistics problem, but it's a real differentiator between taxi and delivery.
Stylometry is a really cool field.

For example it was used to figure out if a subreddit was being manipulated by a small number of sock puppet accounts:

Twitter for iOS has an option to open all links in reader mode. It's awesome!

The term will go away the same way it came in: through people using it.
I'm pretty sure the author wrote that sentence playfully.

I think I'm comfortable with the notion that pushing forward to greatness in one spot will almost always come at the expense of something else.

We can only do so much. Balance is a hard concept. I think we're largely in agreement, but I don't think Adele would take back her career and her royalties to save herself from a surgery, nor should anyone compel her to do so. If she could learn how to be a superstar while preserving her voice that'd be ideal, but in our professions and lifestyles we don't always get that choice.

That said, I think baseball pitchers have a Tommy John problem. If baseball culture pushes the human body beyond what it can bear because it knows there's another tendon to play with after a year of rehab, you could make a case that there is a systemic issue worth fighting against.
We created a 3rd-party micropatch for the recent LabVIEW vulnerability
I bitch about AMP every time it finds an annoying way into my life. I have been bitching about it a lot less, since I disabled it on my site.

It was actually a pro AMP article that was posted here and my response to it that "triggered" me to bitch again.

https://www.alexkras.com/some-thoughts-on-amp-in-conde-nast/
At this point, of the 300k, about 225k is from contributions (savings) and 75k is from gains. The bigger the account gets though, the bigger a percentage the gains will be as the account grows faster than my annual income does.
In a world where everybody has hexagons, one who has pentagons will be the ruler.
An open standard, used by multiple parties (e.g. many services now consume AMP content), based upon HTML, consumable by just about everyone. That's about as open web as it gets.

Secondly, I think the biggest strawman is this notion that it's AMP vs some conceptual "open web". That open web you like has much more formidable competitors and was the reason AMP appeared.
"Uber for food" doesn't convey anything to me.

GrubHub is a food delivery service, isn't it?
HelloSign (https://www.hellosign.com) | San Francisco, CA | Full-time | Onsite

>I'm sure we could have a very interesting discussion on these objections but I'd hate to go completely off topic. But I'll easily bite :)

OK :-)

>In the context of the thread, clearly the outlandish demand would be regulating the advertising that B uses in providing A a service.

I don't want to regulate against annoying ads either. That's not what I'm talking about at all because this is something consumers can see with their own eyes, install an ad-blocker or stop using the service where there are alternatives.

But some of the things that ad networks are doing behind the scenes are so unexpected, complex or even malicious that consumers cannot be expected to understand them or to have voluntarily agreed to them. That's an area where I think something should be done.

We already have a lot of rules on the legality of contracts, on transparency, on duty of care, on liability for damage, etc. Not all of these rules have caught up to digital services yet.
So because Verizon donates more to hurricane victims, that makes Google evil?

The rest of your claims are unsourced.
Perhaps. But Uber found product-market fit faster than AirBnB, which if I remember correctly took a while to grow from being "just for actual airbeds" for concert attendees to offering private rooms.

In the beginning, AirBnB was like Couchsurfer but with payments.
I think I'm going to do something similar with tmux and i3. Do you have a config you can point me to?

I'm thinking I can have a key combination load a config file, which will include loading the command mode key bindings and some visual indication of entering a command mode; another key combination unloads them and returns to an "insert" mode.
Heh, "Look at the laws in the US when thinking about it" would be more appropriate.
Montreal has a pretty hot tech scene given its population.

There are a lot of game studios and other tech corporations like Google, Shopify, and so on.

Also you can find many talented programmers in Montreal.
It is particularly enjoyable if you are looking for a really diverse city both culturally and technically.
Again, anecdotal. You're an "older folk", talking on Hacker News. If I asked most older folk, or most any folk in general. They wouldn't have a clue about anything of what you just typed. I deal with end users all day. Most don't know copy and paste exist, or shift select, or how to add a printer automatically, or how to get to anything that isn't a silly mapped drive, or how to get to an internal website without a shortcut on their desktop, or "where did the internet go?" because the blue e isn't there. The vast majority of people, even ones who have been working on computers their entire life, are absolutely, undoubtedly clueless.

I'm glad you're capable, but please be realistic.
5. Isn't that why people go to shoesmakers?
The stackoverflow listing that you link to is closed.
If Twitter is redirecting to the original URL, what's the problem? It muddies the claim of those that oppose AMP so fervently to mix AMP the framework with the use that Google makes of AMP. The publisher has decided to use this technology to make their mobile page. It's perfectly valid (and well engineered) HTML and javascript. Asking for a non AMP version of a page is like asking for the non React page or the non Bootstrap page.
I only build the Netflix of Ubers.

I seriously hate these phrases. It's OK to use adjectives, nouns, verbs and to say the word "app".

I was talking to a guy at SBYP once that said he was building "the Netflix of snacks" and I asked the guy how he planned to digitize said snacks and he looked at me like I was the asshole.

I get it but use some words to describe your thing, man.

"It is rare that one plans their day around transportation" - it wasn't the main point of the article, but that's not my experience. Many of the people I know who, like me, commute into New York from the suburbs plan their day around the train (when is the express train, when is the last train that runs every 30 minutes instead of 60 minutes, and so on).
