This is a fair response and one that lifts from "disruption" like thinking processes.

I've made a personal decision however to retreat from "realpolitik" like political analyses because it requires me to play mind games about the probable intentions of the decision maker, their constraints, and the possible outcomes of the decision they made.

Holding people to a set of normative values that I believe to be meaningful has been a more useful (if more blunt) meta-construct*

Ask HN: Known Attacks for Network Intrusion Detection System
SANS.org paper on NIDS says the following "performs an analysis for a passing traffic on the entire subnet. Works in a promiscuous mode, and matches the traffic that is passed on the subnets to the library of knows attacks"

The joke is that "start small and keep expenses low; focus on making enough money to live" was known in the past (and outside of the tech bubble) as simply "starting a business".

The title is a bit buzzword-laden, and GP is calling that out.
> They're encrypted with keys that remain in hardware. You can never read the keys, only encrypt files with them, from applications running in a separate physical address space, accessible only through the hypervisor.

By 'in hardware', I'm guessing you don't mean real silicon / flash, but rather whatever persistent storage is provided by the SoC vendor's TrustZone implementation. In my opinion calling that 'hardware' implies a level of security and verification that is not actually present, and is disingenuous.

If history has shown us anything, it's that relying on a chipmaker's security assurances for platform software features can only end in tears. You don't need to look very far to find real world examples of exploits against TZ stacks [1].

Looks surprisingly close to specs of a Panasonic made radar.

That is far from what is currently considered advanced for mm-wave radar in 93-95ghz range - 0.5 degrees

Google "GPU Acceleration of SAR/ISAR Imaging Algorithms" and see how much you can get with with regular high bandwidth 10ghz radar and computing power in tenths of gigaflops.
Thank you, and now that I can read it -- nice post. I like how you covered a lot of the "wow that didn't work at all" stages. You didn't downplay it, which I see a lot of posts of this sort do.

Im not from the field (speaking as an 'average joe' here), but i dont think genius come from brain mechanical power alone.

When you try to map some trends 'genius' people have that others dont, it comes to have some form of free/ilimited thinking, like kids often do, persistence and even stuborness based on faith that something others dont get it its actually possible, criativity, a good environment and in the end choose that path that im sure can become a big burden, that will require a lot of spirit, persistence and good will.

So i guess IQ tests alone will never be able to frame or to detect real geniuses in a objective automated manner.

Of course that more brainpower give you more chances to become a genius, but there are some traces of the personality that must also be there.

For instance, the majority of the smart people in the world, will not go through this route, giving they can just use their brains to get rich, famous, powerful and use it in a more egotistical and self-fulfilling manner.

One reason for the discrepancy between quoted numbers is that, if you are only after pushing that number down and not particularly interested in getting a scalable system, then you are free to run as many systems as you like in as many configurations as possible and then try to combine their outputs (ROVER etc.).
The key is just to overwrite the pixels. Black box is the easiest. Could be any other color box if you want, or a picture of your dog, etc
One of the very first things in maths I taught my kids -- after they could count to 20 -- was binary ("robot numbers!") and from there alternate number bases [stuck well with the first, not so well with second, not at that point with any others]. Think that came from the same place as "what if there's no 6".

I took the approach of how aliens would count if they didn't have "enough" fingers.
Also, if your glucose level increases too much, your body deals with it by taking it all away, being you into a sugar low. Afair ;)
I've recently gone through a few rounds of interview with some of these startups (not google or facebook or apple) and I've come to conclusion, that EVEN THOUGH they interview you, they had already rejected you due to your age/school. If you don't fit a certain diversity goal they are pursuing, too bad too.

They are just interviewing you because if they don't interview, it looks bad on them. It doesn't matter because the people ops team are paid for it.

After spending hours/weekends doing the coding/projects tests, on my own time, and not getting offers at the end, AND realizing yah they never wanted you in the first place, it's very disheartening. I was nothing more than a decoration in the hiring musical chair game.

Diversity isn't just about gender/race. It's about age/school too.
There was a film entitled "The Molten-Salt Reactor Experiment" produced in 1969 [0]. Some staff (including the writer-director and cameraman)[1], titling, and some shots are the same (though the end credits of the look more modern). I wouldn't be surprised if they made both films concurrently, though the maintenance film might be later. Does HN support (c1969)?

I’d have liked this article if it had taken a more critical stance as to the resurgence of RPGs rather than hand-waving some ineffable bs about simpler times and half-allusions to political tensions.

The more accurate answer is, IMO, two fold:
(1) kids who grew up on RPGs are now old enough to want to want to play with their own kids, and funnel disposable cash into it
(2) kids who are interested have less stigma to approaching it, so conversion rates from interest to player should be higher
(3) a lot of technical advancements from the US indie scene and the Western European LARP scene have slowly diffused out into the more mainstream RPG community, resulting in play that’s a lot more fulfilling to various types of players

The market is all about growth -- they're projecting a pullback next quarter. It's also already priced in -- they're about 200% last year's price ($7.50). Investors already expected this news, they only beat estimates by a little.

It would have been around 1994 and 1995. Historic data say that my 4-year (sticker price) total would have been just a bit over $90k (equivalent to $133k in 2017 dollars) for tuition alone. I don't have the receipts, but I think my parents only had to pay about a quarter of that, including non-tuition expenses, to a markedly less prestigious school.

Another very important reason was left out: The 5th edition of the game was very well designed and received critical acclaim among veterans who were disappointed by the 4th edition. The article makes it sound like there's been a resurrection when in fact the game was just hibernating.

Maybe it's ok to let your employer know? It's not as if the desire to relocate could be solved by your current company if all of their operations are local. I suppose it depends on your manager, but hopefully if you said "Boss, I want to move to San Francisco. The growth opportunity there is too great to ignore." they might be supportive. Obviously if you think that conversation could go very badly then you might have to be a bit more low-key. Maybe try to reach out to a recruiting firm in San Francisco instead of changing your LinkedIn.
>>> No, most asians of my generation did not have it easier

Again, statistically. On average, people of all colors don't have an uncle at a hedge fund...

>>> So to answer your question: No, we Asian-Americans dont have it easier, most of us simply overcompensated at great personal cost.

In NY... The irony...

And that's if you're anecdotes are true.
Wildcard certs should help with that. Also, the limit is only on certs, not on domains. If your process allows for issuing a single cert for 100 domains, that also solves the problem. (There is a limit on SANs per cert AFAIK, but I don't have the exact number.)

Let's call Google Sheets "modern" because it can be used from an app or any web browser. I can share a Google Sheet much easier than an Excel file using all the bells and whistles.

The problem is, Excel has a ton of very powerful features. Many of which Google Sheets doesn't provide. Something like VBA would be nice. I'm aware you can write JS plugins for Google Sheets but the experience is no where near as good. Pivot tables in Excel still smoke Google Sheets.
For one, the candidate pool is artificially limited. And, like I said, 3 schools does not the market make.
Interesting post! About living nomad, is there any pain points regarding the management of the company from anywhere?

I read the post linked[1] in this blog post which talks about day to day life, even if work-life balance can be tough, it must be awesome for you guys! But what about administrative paperwork or hurdles (IRS, legal mail, and whatnot)? Was there anything different due to the fact that you guys are digital nomads?

Patch flow into the mainline for 4.14
Well, I mean, an article entitled "How we started a business" could involve how they raised money. Given that this is HackerNews, it's maybe even more likely than not. The term "bootstrapping" precludes that. And "business" could mean anything from a desktop app to a physical t-shirt factory to a copper-mining concern. "SaaS Startup" means something much more specific. And yes, they could have said "... to enough profitability to cover our living expenses," but "ramen profitable" seems more concise in a context (like HN) where the audience knows what it means.

I'm all for calling out buzzwords, but each word here seems to do a decent job of communicating a lot more than "How we started a business."

Its like a real-life implementation of that life-score episode of Black Mirror (and what the chinese government is looking to do to their entire population.

When I first interviewed with google, it took three-freaking months of panel interviews.

Then they said I scored really well, and that I'd have an offer the next day.

I got the call the next day and said, in fact, no offer was coming. No reason given.

Then they attempted to recruit me for the same position for the next four years on three separate occasions.

I told them the story of my first experience, and then they'd say "yeah let me check..." then get back to me and say "sorry, we wont interview you for this position", again, no reason given.

Then they called me one more time, for same damn position. I told them "Ill make this simple, just give me the damn job or stop freaking calling me"

They finally stopped calling me.

If you're dealing with a large scale deployment that involves many endpoints (and not just subdomain-per-user scenario), there are good reasons not to use a wildcard. Other CAs will definitely stay in business there.
I think you're making a mistake here.

You might be a star programmer, but only if you re-wrote every single program exceptionally, because clearly it's not making a fundamental change to someone's life once that counts, you're not a star until you've done that for everyone ...?

Going above and beyond the expectations of your role in order to make a fundamental change to someone's life is enough to call someone a "star" IMO. It's not like someone asked you to personally pay them a bonus, you can award all exceptional effort s a "star" without problem.
As I read this, the post has 6 points and 6 comments. Gotta fix it.
It is the diversity angle, considering many smart students of minority groups choose to go to public school because many come from families that cannot pay for tuition of the top 5.

It would be nice to:

* see a modern replacement for VBA, dare I say using JS

* be able to share a document that won't break when someone opens it on their computer (even if its using all the excel bells and whistles including external data sources and plugins). Google Sheets by contrast, is just a link.

* be able to use all the amazing features via the web and/or an app

Had a quick look at the map and it seems Ober-Erlenbach to other other side of Bad Homburg is only 10km. That's not even a half hour cycle for an adult.

It also looks like Ober-Erlenbach and Nieder-Erlenbach are the only two villages and twos around Frankfurt that don't have a train station to Frankfurt.

Almost every reason I've ever seen given for needing a car have to do with deciding to live somewhere with terrible public transport or lack of public infrastructure nearby.
Right now we're just 2 co-founders. We don't have employees, investors, or an office. So there isn't much management that we can't do online.

We talk to our customers using Intercom and email. Most of them are in the US, so being in Europe works well.

I don't think we could go to Asia because we'd be sleeping while the US is working. Or we'd have to pull off a crazy sleep schedule.

We use a family's place for our business address. Filing taxes isn't any different really.
Happy Canny user here. Do you have any plans to introduce a free tier (or almost free) plan? We have a low amount of traffic and compared to the other services we currently get for <$10 a month (hosting, auth0, sentry, github) I'm struggling to justify the cost we are currently spending on Canny.
Not much of a joke that I think.. For some VC's have a stereotype of looking down on ramen profitability because it gets in the way of convincing young people to burn / spitball / "innovate" a decade of their lives away their 20's swinging for low percentage 100x returns in exchange for burn out, etc... The alternative of say, 10x, can be very profitable and stable and enable just as much.

Said differently..

For some, largely on the funded side, everyone's a statistic, and after generally "going hard", they inevitably "go home" because they're told there's no more money from investors, and not enough paying customers.

On the self-funded / lean / boot-strapped / ramen profitable side, you get to earn your keep to stay in business so no one can tell you to go home except your customers who stop paying you.

I'm not so sure about not having 6 meaning 7 is impossible.

You could imagine a universe where if you have 7 objects it's literally impossible to remove one. The universe will not let you. If you try you would end up removing 2 objects no matter how you try.

It would need more. Say you have 2 piles of 3. If asked how many there are in total, and you counted, you would get either 5 or 7. A kind of relativity, where how many objects depends on who is checking.

This might break though - what if you labeled the objects to make them distinguishable? What would be the distinguishing mark on the 7th object?
