Ask HN: How do I start a credit card company?
I've always wondered - how easy or difficult is it to start a credit card company? Will I need to come up with the pool of funds to provide the loans? Can I piggy back off of an existing company? Just curious.

Yes, I want to better understand the process of committing code to the repository of an application, have it run automated tests, report via a communications tool the result, and automatically deploy if successful. Understanding this efficient process is high in demand and thus highly profitable.

I've created and worked on several projects that have involved APIs, reading from Zendesk, and writing to Slack or HTML, among other places. I've supported Jenkins and related tools multiple times in production. Now I want to fill this gap in my knowledge.
While I don't doubt some are hired out of desperation, most of the people I know hired out of bootcamps went to bigger companies that have the means (both funds and senior developers/mentors) and time to grow junior developers. While they don't have the CS background (notably data structures and algorithms), they usually have a step up on new grads in terms of collaborating on code, using modern frameworks, etc. They also generally take lower salaries than CS grads. So there's pros and cons to hiring bootcamp grads.
As a former advertising executive, I can tell you what the problem is here. The writer and his boss who approved the copy aren't addressing the customer, they're addressing the boss's boss. In a dysfunctional organization like Microsoft, communicating up rather than out is how you get promoted. It's a rare Microsoft employee who moves up the ladder by thinking about the customer.
This. I work at a coding bootcamp and last week we decided to include CSS Grids in the syllabus for the advanced HTML/CSS week and this week we are practicing it. This would never be possible if we needed our syllabus accredited.
I remember when I learned how to day trade foreign exchange with a simple technical analysis strategy. When I started I was ready to have to learn all kinds of advanced maths and expected to "level up" analytical thought.

Ask HN: Success stories of co-founders that met online?
I've sparingly been working on a side project for a while by myself and i've considered teaming up with a technical co-founder, for known positive reasons. In the far past i placed some ads on "co-founder dating" websites for other projects but eventually didn't follow through for several reasons like

- trust issues in starting a co-founding relationship with a stranger (though i worked for startups/clients remotely for years)

- difficulties in setting criteria for selecting a person

Though not vital for my current goal of launching an MVP/proof of concept, I’m thinking about giving co-founder dating another go and wondering if anybody knows of success cases (co-founders that met and eventually launched a minimally successful startup project) ?

not every J random googler I would hope but from experience working on x.400 mail some key people will have access.

in the 80's I had root on all the machines for the main UK ADMD and the level beyond root on the two billing systems - the OS was based on ITS A custom version of PR1MOS which is why there was a level beyond root.

Of course these days I would have had to have SC or DV clearance - I trust those googlers who do have access are properly security cleared :-)
Ah. It’s quite possible it was too soft and yes foam does get softer over time. There are some firmness levels between some brands of foam mattresses where they use different combinations of different types of foams that give a firmer feel but most box foam junk comes in a medium-soft variety to appeal to the broad market.
Even worse, they have both "most powerful ever" and "most powerful yet" in the copy. That reads really sloppy to to me.

And the $375k understates the 'total cost of ownership'. I am sure legal fees ran them anywhere from $50k to several hundred thousand additional.
Further: before stock markets had a relatively clear bid-ask price range, everyday people would treat stocks as the same as paper currency (which was also relatively new at the time). This led to inflationary bubbles and crashes. The John Law Mississippi Company bubble in early 18th century France caused a significant economic crash, which exacerbated the economic situation leading up to the French Revolution a good 70 years later.
Are you me? :)

That's probably the solution: find at least one other person for this team. The CTO was amazingly taking care of all of the infrastructure himself, I came in to lighten his load, and I feel like we could use another person or two to bring it down to a manageable level.

Absolutely. Running k8s on bare metal requires full-time dedicated staff. Running k8s with GKE, and possibly also Azure Container Service, though I have no direct experience, is a one-off half-day effort.

What people usually don't realize is that once you're in the cloud, all your services talk TCP. A service in GKE and another one in AWS are just a network hop away. Two considerations are:

* Network egress costs, which is currently outrageously high, and serves as a lock-in device of sorts. Depending on actual workloads, it may or maynot make sense for you.

* Security. Though there are numerous VPC solutions out there, some of them supported by the cloud providers themselves.

Anecdotically, we also run a small RDS database in AWS, though we only need ~100 small queries a day.
I agree with the utility of the granularity. On the implementation side, it adds a lot of complexity.

1) Every granularity feature adds a set of possible state interactions and widens the attack surface.

2) Every granularity feature is an opportunity for a user to accidentally misconfigure their settings and expose themselves to more risk than they believe they are.
The parent says that there was contact and used the word "conquered" and "slave trade".

Downvoting it for political reasons that have zero to do with history being discussed, because some unrelated discussions about tolerance something is textbook suppressing of historical truth for political reasons.
GitLab's built-in CI is very good, and simpler than Travis for some things.

You also have the option (unlike Travis) of registering your own runners in your project settings, and you can do this either on gitlab.com or another deployment, without needing to be an admin of the deployment - you can get a key for it in your own project's settings. I'm using this at work, where we have an internal GitLab that I'm not an admin of (and where the GitLab admins probably have no interest in running a CI system), to do a small bit of CI on some things using one of my team's servers as a runner.

My suspicion is that some companies would prefer to only have investors instead of speculators. I suspect that a SE with such rules would favor long term investments over short term profits.

OOP has nothing to do with classes, inheritance, especially multiple inheritance. It's about programming objects that communicate with each other. In fact Javascript and it's prototype system are much more OOP than say C++ classes, or worse, Java classes.

We should call programming with classes and inheritance. COP, as in Class Oriented Programming. COP is especially appropriate because if you don't follow the type rules, you go to compiler jail.

Small correction: It will automatically test the latest commit on every push to every branch
Contact or goods exchange does not mean multiculturalism, that is the frequent online reaction to articles like this, but it is incorrect. When we talk about Anglo-Saxon objects found in Viking graves, we would not automatically equate that with a multicultural society, it could be as a result of pillaging, or trade, or some more intimate cultural connection, or a combination of all three, and might also include third parties.

The idea presented in the original article was that a Viking was buried with a piece of fabric carrying an Islamic design, which had been incorrectly copied by a third party. They in fact said a Muslim Viking "could not absolutely be ruled out" but was unlikely. How you go from this to "Viking-Islamic multiculturalism projected into the past" is beyond me.

Edit: Just googled around and did find a Guardian article with the subheading "University researchers’ ‘staggering’ claim appears to contradict theories that Islamic objects in Viking graves are result of plunder", although that wasn't replicated in the BBC article which was posted to HN.
Equating Turks (not sure if you mean that or Ottomans?) conquering armies with "Islam conquering parts of Europe" (Greece?, Spain?) seems likely to be problematic; the latter would suggest willful adoption en masse of Islamic religion, political structure, warring.

Did the conquerors instigate Sharia, did they do the Mohammedean standard "pay jizya, convert, or die" offer to the populous? Did the conquered people convert and then seek to forcibly "convert" others?
Ask HN: Is it too late to get into Bitcoin or cryptocurrency in general?
I missed the bus. I recall playing with bitcoins like 10 years ago and didn't see the potential and thought it to be very risky.

PS: I am not talking about mining because the consensus is that it is too late for that - at least for an individual with a laptop.

Yeah, the “world-class” hook was more about the quality of these tools than their applicability for use at scale for free - I encourage people to pay real money at various points in the article.

I’m currently running my blog on a single $7/month Heroku Dyno (plus $9/month for Heroku PostgreSQL) behind a free Cloudflare account - with the right caching headers I can easily handle huge amounts of read traffic. I was going to mention Cloudflare in this piece but I decided it didn’t fit the theme of continuous deployment as well as the other tools.

Yup, definitely look into it. We just killed our last Jenkins instance last week after we found out that everyone eventually moved to the GitLab CI.

Why a tough one? I found Sentry easy to self-host. They have pretty good docs: https://docs.sentry.io/server/installation/

We ditched Slack for Mattermost. It's not entirely up to par (yet), but works for most use-cases. And there's an IRC bridge for it, too (https://github.com/42wim/matterbridge). Oh, and Mattermost comes bundled with GitLab in their omnibus.
I prefer the smaller form factor and lighter weight of the laptop. I realized I never undocked the screen on the Surface Book, which might be different for other users. I don't need a GPU for what I do. I never used the pen, which doesn't come with the laptop.

One downside to the laptop is it only comes with a single USB-C port, so you'll probably need a hub.

Travis is a third-party service. Jenkins is (usually) software you run yourself. Travis will run the infrastructure for you and will not charge you if your project is public on GitHub. So that makes it an extremely popular choice for open-source projects: sign into Travis with your GitHub credentials, click a checkbox on your repo, and add and commit a .travis.yml file, and now you have CI that is well-integrated with GitHub and you don't have to run any infrastructure or pay for any server hosting.

Of course, you have much less control over Travis than Jenkins. Two cases where Jenkins remains obviously better are when you need custom environments that aren't easily portable to Travis (Windows support is a big one, although there is a company called AppVeyor that is something like a Travis for Windows; licensed software is another big one), or if you have strong security/confidentiality requirements (e.g., you're in a regulated industry) and using random cloud services isn't a good option.
Seems to me the main difference is that all the particles in the gyro are trying to go in a straight line, but can't due to being a part of a rigid structure. You should be able to tell the difference by dropping a ball bearing. It will land "straight down" if it's gravity, but move "to the side" if it's rotating.
Sorry, it's mixed nuts then, I didn't realize there was a difference.

Completely agree, in cloning the company one would add his/her own interpretations and approaches to problems and features just by implementing as a engineer who is not at the cloned company. The twist is the differentiation that one intuitively feels exists or can be created that makes the pursuit of cloning that much more meaningful and perhaps effective.
I suppose I can get real with you to make my point. My daughter lives in another state, and her mother's platform of choice is Facebook. I don't get to see her but once every couple weeks, so, if I want to regularly see what my daughter is up to (in a day-to-day sense vs. in a formal sense, like when I Facetime her daily), I _have_ to be on Facebook.

I realize such a situation is an outlier, but you must realize that if you could not conceive of this, there's probably many more situations you could not conceive of. For better or worse, things like Facebook are now a staple in our lives. If it means being able to follow along with my daughter's growing up, I'll subscribe to whatever the hell social network she's on.
This is only partially true. It ignores the job losses that result from the fall in capital available to firms. Additionally, anyone owning equities, which should be most of the middle class although I'm aware this isn't the case, will see their wealth decrease. I'd argue that the only people who benefit from crashes are those with large amounts of cash assets, which is generally not how you should be holding your wealth. Holding cash, after all, is just withholding wealth from being productive.
It is so nice when the rich civilized European states decide what poor states should do. After all the rich European states know more than the poor states what's good for them. After all, Africa is grateful for the European colonialism. Just ask any Sudanese or Liberian.
Exactly. Concrete example: The only two sources of Clinton emails being made public were

1) Emails disclosed as part of a legal discovery process that compelled Clinton to hand over the emails herself.

2) Copies of her emails acquired from a correspondent with a much-less-secure configuration of their Gmail account than Clinton's configuration of her private server.

Email is, by its nature, a distributed infosec problem.

My team specifically went to several bootcamps (three I believe) and interviewed at least 30 different people. Of them, only two of them barely passed the interview(s).

The one person we ended up hiring had previous experience in a very relevant field and we felt would add perspective. We recognized they would need some work and we all took / take time after work to work with them. They've improved a lot and now are a pretty potent developer (six months after we hired them).

I think that's probably a standard experience. Perhaps a 5% pass rate for new junior developers from bootcamps, followed up with a known need to develop them further. That's fine though, because we can pick them up at a much lower rate (initially) and grow them. Those people are usually much more loyal, and will have a lower turn over. As long as their salary grows consistently with their competency.
