Everyone learns how to do Continuous Deployment when prod is on fire.
Normally I'm not a fan of crowdfunding OSS projects, because the person(s) leading the project tend to walk away from the project as soon as the money runs out.

In this case, the fact that this person has contributed for such a long time speaks in their favor. However, the kickstarter raises a valid issue: there is only a single maintainer and that has led to this situation. The campaign itself then talks about what kind of features will be implemented using this money, but to me as a user I care far more about the long-term sustainability of magic. In other words, the actual problem raised in the campaign is not solved by the campaign; even worse, it might even make the problem worse.

Don't get me wrong, I love magit, but I would be more likely to donate for past contributions that for future commitments.

That would be best, sure, but not every company can (and owners can subscribe to their own philosophies of workplace). All I'm saying is that providing this information would help potential candidates self-select to environments they find comfortable, which is beneficial both for employees and the company.

The basic income should be on a sustenance level. So even without any controls, having more children is not a way to get wealthy. It's basically like now; if some of them succeed it may pay off, but it's anti-social and usually doesn't work.
>parents can choose to make medical decisions that they know will result in the death of a child (eg refusing treatment for life-threatening diseases due to religious concerns).

That is false. Parents cannot legally deny their children life-saving treatment.

Also, I'm not sure where I am being hyperbolic. Peter Singer literally does advocate for the "right" to kill young children for a long time after their birth. So if you say that Peter Singer offers an "easy" moral approach to abortion, I have to ask whether you actually do agree with his logic and follow it to the same ultimate conclusions that he does.
I think it's worth it when the alternative are multi billion dollar lawsuits and government regulation.
Well I'm sure it's Apple's intention to not give up a super fat margin after establishing it. It remains to be seen whether in the medium term the market would keep its enthusiasm for a "legacy" iPhone range which becomes implicitly old and busted in the shadow of the "real" iPhone and competitor products.
The PC was really an outlier.

Not only was it an IBM product, but beyond the BIOS everything was off the shelf (even the OS).

So once the BIOS was cloned, and the clone defended as clean in court, they promptly tried to reassert control with the PS/2 and spiraled into irrelevance.

True. But perhaps different types of people like different styles of workplace. E.g. "creatives" could prefer the open style, whereas programmers could prefer the office style.

An alternative solution is to allow employees to freely move between workspaces.
It solves the first part of the problem: attracting a lot of local talent. Now you just need an incubator and/or VC money to seed a bunch of local startups.
This is a solved problem.

Companies that store personal information at that level should be required to implement PCI-DSS level security. This includes going through the auditing process.

Here's a quick overview.

You can work to not implement the security standards, and then try to fake your way through the audit. At that point you are not ignorant of proper security, you are actively endangering the users, and your right to hold PII (Personally Identifiable Information) should be revoked.

Ask HN: Equity/cash arrangement for new social app?
Hi folks, wondering if I can get your advice. I'll keep details short since you probably don't care about the story behind this situation.

Basically, I've developed a working relationship with this person over the past few months. She's one of the best thinkers & doers I've ever met. I would be giving zero thought to this if I didn't care about working with this person.

Right now, we're considering building a social venture that would require native apps for ios and android. Given our history and mutual respect, we've discussed a 50-50 equity split. But there's an option for me to go for less equity for some amount of cash upfront.

Realistically, I don't think this social app will ever make any money. But because it's going to be native, the value of the development (that I'd be doing entirely) would probably be between $40-80k (at the very least).

The question is...I don't think it's fair for me to create this much value when I doubt I'll get any in return. But if I ask for cash in place of some portion of equity, how do I value this venture that doesn't exist yet?

I doubt there's a straightforward answer here, but I welcome your thoughts and/or resources to help me figure this out.

That is already true. In many crimes you need to press charges, and sometimes you can even request the charges to be dropped.

http://www.businessinsider.com/how-americans-spend-their-mon...

Here's a chart of how a middle class American family currently spend their money.

Please note 74k in income is pre tax, and 57k in expenses is post tax.

So, the average American family is actually spending every dollar they earn.

I don't know where technology fits in to this current budget, but you can see it's pretty much pegged due to housing and healthcare.

$1,000 for one phone is out of the budget for all middle class Americans, period, unless they begin to cut back on cars or food.

Which, you can assume that some might, but on the aggregate, they won't.

It's the notes for a 40 min talk Rachel will give at the O'Reilly AI conference. It was originally meant to be a longer tutorial, so the scope had to be cut down significantly, whilst the title remained. There's lots of links in the notebook to additional resources with more background info.

Having said that, there really isn't much more linear algebra you need to implement neural networks from scratch. You'll need convolutions of course, although that's not too different from what's shown here.

For those interested in much more detail, Rachel has a full computational linear algebra course online http://www.fast.ai/2017/07/17/num-lin-alg/ . Most of that isn't needed for most deep learning, however.

> Do you apply a flat rate per acre of land regardless of where it is, to the detriment of rural farmers who own many acres?

No, it's the market value of the land. Probably the price would be determined in a manner similar to property tax.

It seems that in our current world, it's easier to fairly determine property tax then what counts as someone's income, at least for the self-employed and investment classes.

10 Steps to Investing Successfully in New Ventures
My issue is not that someone has an opinion on something they don’t own, as you said that’s perfectly reasonable because no one buys everything.

My annoyance is that people have an opinion on something that no one has used.

It’s perfectly fine to have an opinion about the Galaxy S8 without owning one. There were reviews and now there are other owners who you can look to find out how well parts of it work.

With the iPhone X we don’t even have refused to tell us if the feature works or not so complaints about it are pure conjecture.
Good.

Apple is one of my favorite companies. I just absolutely love what they're doing and have done in terms of personal privacy.

I'm really disheartened that they've moved to an open office layout. It's a surefire way to lose huge amounts of productivity from their engineers.

Open office layouts are a travesty. They make literally no fucking sense. As engineers we're expected to maintain abstractions in our minds which can span hundreds if not thousands of lines of code.

So why would you put us in the middle of a fucking zoo?

I can hear sports TV while I try to work. I can hear my friends/coworkers shoot the shit about the new South Park or Game of Thrones episode while I work. I can hear people talk about their weekend plans while I work. I can hear my coworkers planning projects I'm not involved in as I work.

And here I am, expectected, as a full stack engineer, to abstract complex data flows while all of this is going on.

To produce, while all of this is going on.

And do not forget that even if every single person was a deaf mute, their mere presence can knock me out of the zone.

I remember college. I remember working on projects and losing track of time. Because back then I had a room where I could work without distraction. Boy, how wonderful, to be so absorbed as to forget how much time has passed.

I literally have never felt that in an open office layout. It sucks. I love what I do. Why take that pleasure away from us?

It burns me out.
I worked for a company that was doing at least 100k credit checks each day. A lot of it was batched - we would get a file with 25k records and had to process it and send back the results (usually HTML reports and/or decisions based on them).

What I want to say is, it wouldn't surprise me to hear that the three main bureaus process millions of requests per day.

Oh, and also - all bureaus were replying to a request in less than a second. Quite impressive.

Roads are a fairly structured and rule-based environment already designed with machines operating on them in mind. And those aspects that are not designed for the physical properties of cars are still designed to be easily perceptible by the human operators, e.g. signs, lane markings.

That can't be said for many other environments in which autonomous robots would have to operate.

It seems like he grew a pair and told community what he thinks. He is actually dealing with the fact that some people don't like businesses - he is responding to them in calm rational manner. Right here, in the linked article.

Sure, most trips are short. But short trips are best accomplished via walking, biking, public transit, or taxis. The only reason I want a car is for long trips. It can make short trips more convenient, but also if I were just buying it for short trips there's no point in spending the money, at least not living in a major city. Long trips are usually cost-prohibitive without a car that has decent range, at least relative to the cost of a gas-burning vehicle.
