Then you have an interesting challenge. Businesses are never at equilibrium. So if you're not growing, you're shrinking. There may be lulls where things are flat, but you never want to be flat.

Likewise, if you resist growing and have competition, they will see the opening you leave, continue growing, and then look to use that leverage to buy or kill your business.
It's a start. That 0.1% will be enough or some people, and once they get that much down, learning about the other functionality will be simple should they desire to seek it out.
I thought this is the older way of doing DDoS, like replicating user's behaviour and overwhelming the server with repeated requests. And it's very obvious that any public facing API should be heavily cached and rate limited, in fact, all the major application frameworks provide easy to implement code for these.

But yeah, more developers should be aware of the possibility of this.
I wouldn't call housing in Adelaide "normal" and I imagine the situation in other capitals is similar, even if they're not as extreme as Sydney and Melbourne. The market is overheated. Almost every house in my area is refusing to list a price because the agents could get 15-35% more than they might've guessed a few months ago.

I'd hate to be trying to buy right now.

I didn't say anything about solving the right problem poorly, but you are probably speaking a truth, depending on what poorly means. It certainly isn't ideal. I've seen solutions designed so poorly that when it came time to add features that paying clients wanted, it was significantly more difficult (significant risk) than if it was designed well.

I'd say solve the right problem well, without spending time on requirements you don't yet have. These would include a large scalability requirement and over-modularization, like breaking out 10 "micro services."
Yeah, civilians take that to imply a crash in prices. It's not.
Right, insurance does care how much you drive, but there are costs to being fine-grained about how you measure it, so they usually lump in everyone below ~30k miles/year and don't bother to count the differences there. I remember entering 10k vs 15k miles per year and the quote was the same for Geico.

Of course, you're absolutely right, and insurers have been slow to account for this parameter; the startup MetroMile exists solely because regular insurers overestimated what a difference the mileage makes. (MetroMile charges by how much you actually drive.)
I use thunderbird, but I have fond memories of Evolution. It is way faster than thunderbird.

Claws-mail is pretty good too, if you need something light yet functional.
Sounds like basically what a cryptocurrency hardware wallet does.

Several months ago I saw a project making wallet software that used the enclave. I forget who they were but I think they'll have a hard sell; everyone just reflexively assumed it was insecure because it was on a phone.
In my experience the confusion surrounds 2 things. How brackets and deductions work. Many people don't understand that once your income goes into a higher bracket, you are only taxed at that higher bracket for the income that pushes you into it. For deductions, I've met a lot of people who think that it works essentially as a credit, rather than just saving you your tax rate on that portion.
According to Bankrate, 2.5% interest isn't a reasonable assumption these days. Looks like it's more like 4.5%, and I presume that's assuming you have really good credit.

That said, even at 6%, you're only looking at $1,172 over the life of a 5 year loan, so I agree that it's a fairly negligible difference for the purposes of this calculation.
I think you’re a bit out of touch in that regard.

I think that 99.99% applies to even HN and it certainly applies to me.
Choosing a good niche is not trivial though, it requires market research and imo is a part of marketing.
Very excited about Carp. In general I like the simplicity of Lisp but ironically I'm not a fan of dynamic typing. Carp may be a real innovation. A bit surprised though that the Carp C runtime functions are not namespaced. With names like `IO_println` there's a risk of clashes. Unless the compiler is doing some tricks to hide names?

I’m guessing that this spreadsheet is rife with false accuracy. Modeling and forecasting markets is incredibly difficult. The reason he can get away with it is nothing will ever happen that can prove it wrong.

"...but I have seen bonuses pop up on my app offering between $100-$500 to refer other drivers."

Whoo hoo! Multilevel marketing!

"Provide drivers with the details of where the person is going, or at least how long of a ride it is. Right now, Uber has all this incredibly useful information at the time of booking, but deliberately withholds it from the driver."

And have all drivers ignore assignments for short rides?
And yet you’d be hard pressed to do worse than any mainstream desktop OS.
I think the best you can hope for, even here, is that the majority says "from the headline I'm not sure what that means in practice, so I'll reserve judgment until I look into this."

And even that's a tall order.

I use C-o.

My keyboard layout is set to dvorak, so the o is right next to a, lending similar convenience. I also haven't run into any serious conflicts in Vim, Emacs, or most shell stuff I do.
My two cents: Specialize in distributed systems -- learn golang, implement Paxos and Raft, write a BitTorrent client.
I used POD for a while; but after using DocBook XML for manuals for a work project some years ago I switched to primarily using that, and generating HTML, roff, and others from it.

"Chao" is used in some spanish-speaking countries for bye. So technically it is not misspelled :-)
I think you definitely underestimate the maintenance cost. For example, you’ll probably need to replace the tires at least 4-5 times in those 200k miles, which will set you back around $800-900 each time. You will also need to replace clutch plate, brake pads, likely battery etc, and you are likely to end up needing to repair something in these 200k miles. I’d add at least $5000 to maintenance cost, and likely more.
There are more-modern negative pressure ventilators on the market.[1] I would think that from a legal perspective, it would be better to raise money to buy this woman a new ventilator, rather than subjecting her to cobbled-together replacement parts.

Indeed, cryptocurrency hardware wallets and the SEP are basically just HSMs (hardware security modules).

It's unfortunate people would draw negative connotations from it being on a mobile device. The security architecture of iOS and the SEP combined with the relatively wide deployment of iPhones makes for a great number of use cases.
I don't know. When I drink more than 2 cups my sleep suffers and even my personality changes. I get pretty hyper and less patient. With my girlfriend I can tell immediately whether she has had coffee just from the way she talks.

Even through that's true, there's still a wealth of devices that ignore that and use it anyway unfortunately. Mostly cheap devices from other countries that I suspect aren't properly fcc certified despite any claims to the contrary. The wireless doorbell at my last place was on 433mhz.
It would not have taken much more time to explain panes at least. This just sounds like a lazy article.
This is a subtle and difficult thing, but I promise you it is true: the IRS is not primarily scored on revenue generation. Their incentives are (approximately) hire more IRSians, minimize complaints to Congress regarding the tax code, minimize complaints to Congress regarding the IRS specifically, efficiently administer taxes, and generate revenue, in order.

There are a lot of changes that are within the IRS' authority to make which would be net-positive from a tax collection perspective and which it would not do and, if it did, would be undone from above. One is "radically increase the number of audits administered."

I'm thinking it'd look something like, "kannst du Deutsch?", where the sprechen is implied. I'm not sure I've ever seen it with gehen or other motion verbs, though... And I'm not a native speaker so I can't rely on intuition to say whether something like, "werden wir ins Bett", sounds right without gehen.
I feel like I have a real problem with some scientific studies on the human body, which apparently link things to specific outcomes and later on reverse those links and sometimes even linking the opposite to the same outcomes. As a researcher myself, but not in a biological field, I believe more and more that it is just insanely difficult to understand the complex interactions inside our bodies. This doesn’t mean that I’m against this type of research, on the contrary, we need more and more studies.

Try to cut off the caffeine consumption by 3pm and your sleep should not suffer (based on the half life of caffeine and average human adult body weight).

People who haven't used it need to start somewhere, and the author specifically says why panes were not addressed. "Useless" is a pretty harsh write-off.
So Carp could compile to that subset of C++. But C++11 isn't _just_ that. It is all of C++11.

C++ would even more successful if it was easy to make a proper subset of it.
I was only able to hypothesise the cause, as that happened to correlate well in my minuscule sample size; your data point appears to have invalidated that. I regret not being able to isolate the cause properly.

I would still run the user account experiment — your described symptom matches exactly what I experienced. It should only take a few minutes to make an account, log into it and run Firefox.

What I do know:

* The problem started after a major macOS version upgrade, almost certainly Sierra.

* The problem occurred on my desktop and my laptop, but not my wife's computers that saw largely similar install history but more plain-vanilla usage patterns.

* The contents of the Firefox profile directory do not matter; the problem occurs with a completely fresh profile.

* The contents of the ~/Library directory do not seem to matter; creating a new user account and moving the entire contents of ~/Library back fixed it.

* The problem could not be replicated within any other user accounts on the same machine where the problem occurred.

* I was unable to create a faulty user account.

If the keys are laid out in a 1x26 keyboard, yes. If the keys are laid out in a more usable way, then no. If I can see the key 'j', I cannot guess whether 'm' will be to the right or left of it, without knowing the length of the row, and considering it at all times.

I would describe today's society as one in which typing is necessary for any basic tasks, and is universal, and so I don't see why smartphone users would be different from the norm in terms of typing ability. Are you using "typing" to refer only to "touch typing"?
I wonder what the health benefits are for different caffeine metabolizers (i.e. for different CYP1A2 genotypes). The source article only mentions that slow metabolizers have a higher risk of hypertension, but is that outweighed by the other benefits?

In the secure-browser article cited in the parent comment, number eight is the Yandex Browser. Quoting from the article: "Yandex, which is based on Chromium, uses the 'Blink' engine which runs checks through downloads and even uses Kaspersky's antivirus to scan for malicious content." I find this recommendation a bit surprising.
As an avid Vivaldi user, I was impressed with what Firefox Quantum had to offer. I hadn't used Firefox since Chrome became dominant, it was interesting to see what Firefox had to offer compared to the Chromium-based ecosystem.

Personally, I would consider Firefox Quantum to be a step up over Chrome, but it's still missing much of the customization that I grew to love under Vivaldi. Simply being unable to change keybindings or the speed dial selection were enough to draw me back to Vivaldi, but I'll be keeping a keen eye on Firefox development from now on.

I do agree however, the lack of syncing is a major drawback to Vivaldi, and one I hope they will add in the near future.

Real experience:. I made about 90k over 1.5 years of driving for Uber/Lyft. Much maintenance I did myself, and took my car (Honda insight, 30mpg city/45 highway) from 70k to about 260k. Obviously this paid for itself (~16k) and rent in the expensive bay area, and some.

I don't know if it's as lucrative as it used to be, and I was also very very good at it. Usually ~50-75% of my fares were not at base rate.

I always wonder if odd(and perhaps pointless) interview Q like this have been contorted from the original(much useful) problem like pollard's rho or it just happened to reduce to more useful ones.

Digging deeper into such questions yields fun observations which may be the only useful thing that comes from questions like these. Like the length of the Longest Increasing Subsequence of a sequence A, has a fun fact to do with the Chromatic Number of a graph derived formed from a matching between A and sorted(A).

Can coffee still be more beneficial than harmful if you suffer withdrawal effects? I have some co-workers who get headaches if they try to have a morning without coffee.
To a point. If you are conscientious, then more time on the road makes you a better driver, by knowing your car better and being better able to predict what others will do.
Title II is the only tool the FCC currently has to enforce net neutrality. It's also what was in place until the mid-2000s. It doesn't change the FCC rulemaking process, which often takes years from start to implementation, is subject to judicial review, specifically disallows arbitrary and capricious changes, and can be overridden any time Congress likes. The claims that Title II classification did/will stifle investment and Section 706 classification did/will encourage it aren't supported by the record of the last 20 years.

I thought Twitter is the platform of choice for the concise and the impatient. A consequence is all the outrage due to people misunderstanding those concise sentences.

Being a non-native English speaker, I'm aware when I'm becoming wordy, but improving sentences while retaining meaning and details takes quite some time and effort for me.

Perhaps you can consider a solution like providing paragraph improvement suggestions using automatic text summarization. That seems more constructive to me in permanently improving a writer's writing skills.
I don't think it's a good thing businesses are pushed towards being either "maximize profits" or "not allowed to make profits at all" (i.e. not actually a business in the usual sense). Like, businesses should be able to "profit-satisfice" if that's what the owners want. Some do; Craigslist basically still does this last I heard. But it sure seems like businesses get pushed away from that, doesn't it? I guess a lot of that is what hn_throwaway_99 said -- don't take VC funding if you want to be able to do that! Or more generally, as little outside funding as you can get away with. Just have to keep it as yours as possible...

Edit: See also sibling comment, hn_throwaway_99 also said it well.

Lite coin?

Lite coin has zero community of note. It is mostly just speculators, and people who suck up to the bitcoin Core team.

There frankly isn't even a litecoin vision. Like what do litecoin supporters even believe? What even IS a litecoin supporter?

I go to a bunch in person crytocurrencies and talk to people. And I can't think of a single time someone has said "oh, I am really excited about LTC" or similar.

Nobody is going out to coffee shops and saying "hey, do you accept litecoin?". Nobody is hosting litecoin meetups or tech talks or anything at all.

My biggest problem with litecoin, though, is that it is an unthreatening, PC, coin that has no intention of shaking the status quo, pushing the needle, or doing anything groundbreaking that might upset the powers that be in the cryto space.

If you aren't making anyone mad, then you probably aren't doing anything interesting or important. And I can tell you that nobody is 'mad' at litecoin.
