I won't comment on his demeanor, I think we all feel the same way about his mannerisms.

I do hope he gets some sort of mistrial eventually. What happened is not justice, it's mob vengeance with biased judges and prosecutors trying to make a name for themselves. This reminds me so much of the Aaron Swartz "trial".
you're right... IMAP only for Email & Notes[0].

CalDAV for Calendars, Reminders.
CardDAV for Contacts.

I am able to use (basic) formatted text, but not the upgraded notes.

I've really enjoyed fastmail for the 1.5 years that I've used it.

For the record, Fastmail supports Mail, Calendar, & Contacts very well. And because Mail is doing the analysis of your messages, Calendar automatically inserts dates from events, flights, and such.

Exactly. It's funny to me when people call the existing land owners selfish.

You know, I feel that I have the fundamental right to live on the Upper West Side in NYC for cheap. I want views of Central Park and I want 6 bedrooms. For cheap. Just cuz. Because, you know, I just deserve it.
> They should've released ESR just before the first Quantum release. Who's going to downgrade their browser 4 versions back?

They did. ESR was branched on schedule, the extension changes were well publicized, extensions were marked within the UI as having upcoming incompatibilities. And the breaking changes started before v57.

> I'd rather switch to Waterfox or Pale Moon or whatever.

Pale Moon is based on an even older and slower Firefox engine than Firefox ESR 52.x. Waterfox is planning on supporting legacy extensions, but whether they will set up the extensive manual review process that Mozilla has remains to be seen.

> I don't use Pentadactyl myself, I probably had in mind another extension (Vimperator).

Vimperator had I think 15,000 users at its peak, so it was likely that you were thinking of.

> They shouldn't have released anything until this extremely basic functionality is available to extensions. Otherwise it's just farce. Knowing Mozilla they will never implement this functionality because "nobody uses these extensions anymore" (because it's plain impossible to).

Firefox was bleeding users due to being slower and was having extreme difficulty implementing new features due to the ton of extra time to check if each feature altered existing extensions in any way sometimes adding months of implementation time.

> How am I supposed to use Firefox if I press Ctrl-W thousands of times per day? Even if I had an incredible accuracy of 99.99%, I'd still accidentally hit Ctrl-Q several times per day. Shouldn't the most basic functionality of a browser be "don't spontaneously close several times per day"?

Use Firefox ESR 52.x. It's stable and the same speed you're already accustomed to. By the time ESR is ready to move up to a later release in June, you can evaluate if Firefox 60/61 will suit your needs and support the types of extensions you want or going with an alternative implementation is a better idea.

Until then, you could also do some keybind changes at the OS level if you are so inclined and can find a suitable alternative that doesn't mess with your dev environment. You could also use ALT-HOME and use the standard built-in Firefox homepage.
Yes, driverless testing involves having a passenger function that where the passenger can request that the car pull over at the next available spot.

I'm not sure why you're splitting hairs on that though, when there's a definitive difference between having testing with someone in the driver's seat and not having someone in the driver's seat.
Block Assets Limited | HCMC, Vietnam | ONSITE | Full time Software Engineer / Full Stack

Block Assets Limited is a blockchain related company. We are the global reseller of BW.com’s ASIC miners. We’re a growing company, with a nice office in Phu Nhuan, HCMC. We are looking for full stack developers to help us build mining management and reporting applications for our large scale cryptocurrency mining operations.

We can get the best of both worlds of front and back end development by hiring JavaScript / ES6 / Typescript / Flow developers. React / React Native frontend and NodeJS backend. We always consider the best tools for the job. We do pair programming, write tests, use Pivotal Tracker in a truly agile way, have daily short stand-ups and practice CI/CD.

We are looking for bright, hands-on engineers with a good testing ethic. You don’t need to know anything about the cryptocurrency space, but you need to have a strong desire to learn everything about it. The interview process consists of a ~30 minute google hangout phone screen to get to know each other. Then, we will schedule an office visit where we spend a couple hours pair programming on a task that is similar to something you might see on your first day of work.

Interested? Reach out to jon@balimited.io
I've applied for CM, how is the hiring process?
Being a quant generally pays more than being a dev, but even still the Glassdoor numbers are significantly lower than what I’ve heard through the grapevine for many companies in New York. I wonder how recent the Glassdoor data points are and for what level of experience.

BT OpenReach is a regulated utility, but not a very heavily regulated utility. Ofcom did what the FCC managed to completely screw up: create an unbundling regime that still made investing in infrastructure worthwhile. The FCC set wholesale rates so low that it killed DSL as a viable competitor. Ofcom, meanwhile, conducted tons of economic analysis before privatizing BT, and set rates high enough where BT OpenReach is actually about as profitable as Comcast or TWC. (Of course, the new government is in the process of trying to completely screw up BT with new universal service obligations).
A me-too product in a crowded field. Based on other comments below it appears to be a rebrand of a prior acquire, Turnstyle Analytics in this case.

Also, it's pretty clear based on these early comments that HN has a bunch of people that never talked to or sold to a small business owner before and empathize with their needs.

When you open up a QSR (quick service restaurant as compared to FSQ full service restaurant) there's really only three strategies to build up your initial customer base, one is using wifi as the honeypot.

The default would be to be just broadcast your business account cable or DSL modem and call it a day. The nicer places have a Meraki, set up the captive portal settings, and call it a day. The smart thing to do is to call Facebook and setup a Facebook Wifi service account with them.

They set you up an account, you configure your router, then let Facebook lock up your wifi in exchange for a like or to click the tiny dark patterned opt-out link.

The store owner wins, they get exposure through Facebook with likes, Facebook wins because they get more data points to track, and the customer wins in that they get data access.

It's a simple idea and there are plenty of vendors that offers this to help business owners not have to deal with the as-is software from equipment vendors.

ZenReach.com is another solution provider that integrates multiple services to make it so you mix and match to set up your own preferred workflow.

Yelp jumping in is to boost up their yelp ratings and reviews which in turn boosts their value and extend their relationship with the store so that they can push and upsell more services like local advertising, profile promotion, or orders lead generation.

Lots of the shops will buy in, it's one less hassle out of a lot of hassles they deal with day in and day out, and they might get more Yelp reviews and Yelp stars? Yes, let's go.

The lifecycle for a product like this though is only 2 or 3 years. After two or three years the shop owners smarten up and switch back to a custom branded captive portal because after enough likes they don't want to keep feeding the Facebook bottom line. But now they get to maybe boost up Yelp reviews and ratings for awhile.

One thing I've noticed about my personal habits is that I use WiFi less and less. WiFi is so horribly unreliable that I turn it off and use LTE. I'm sure there is a segment of people who this would work great for, but after almost every US carrier revamped their cell phone plans earlier this year to offer unlimited data, I struggle to see this product's future.

Houses are usually based on what houses in the area sell for. So if you own a $200K house and a builder buys your neighbor's house and demos it, then replaces it with 3 cheaper houses @ $100K, the average goes way down.

It's more complicated than that, but you get the idea.

I subscribed for a couple of years but regrettably didn't have the time to read each episode because of competing digital distractions. Print has a cost but also a permanence that digital mediums can't compete with. Even though Linux Journal had really great DRM free access to all of their magazines while I was a subscriber after my subscription lapsed I didn't have access and hadn't bothered to download them.

If I tried I'm sure I could get them elsewhere, which is the odd state of media these days. Anyone can get it for free but it means something to actually participate in supporting it.

I don't understand. Are you asserting that the set people who are willing to move to San Francisco and pay $X/mo grows and shrinks with San Francisco's housing supply? By what mechanism?

Certainly the set of people who are willing to move to SF and pay $Y < $X is larger, but then SF is not "just as expensive" anymore if it achieves rent $Y. If rents start to rise up towards $X again, then the pool of people willing to move here shrinks accordingly.

eh, a shitty neighbor can make for an easy case on fence restrictions. Its one thing if you have a legitimate reason to put a high fence up, but removing all restrictions would make it really easy for a neighbor to fuck someone over. Say your neighbor is on your south side and puts up a fence that blocks a lot of sunlight to your land, now your garden is useless or you have to spend more money on lighting. Another example, though not for height, would be putting a fence up along your shared driveway up to the street, now theyve made it more dangerous for you to just get out of your house onto the road

Vacancy tax that's aggressive enough to convince absentee owners to take on renters will need to be part of any solution to the housing crisis, and may even be a solution by itself. (San Francisco has more vacant units, which could be returned to the market overnight, than it could build in years).

How did you get into a role like that? Sounds like something that would be fun.
If somebody bought it recently, chances are they own no more that 20-30% of it. Which means if the value goes up 14%, they are in good place (though not seeing a cent of that money until they move), but if the value goes down 20%, they are in trouble. And if they have to move, they are in real trouble.

> ...but this country

Every country.

Every time this conversation happens, everyone acts like the US is the only country that was ever involved in the slave trade. Almost every nation, including majority-black nations, were guilty of this. Many of them are still engaging in it to this day (there are more slaves right now than there have ever been at any point in history, and relatively few of them are in the US).

What's most exceptional about the US on this subject isn't that we have exploitation and slavery in our history, but that we fought a civil war (with more casualties than any other war in American history) in part to end slavery and that today we're further ahead of virtually every major nation on the planet in terms of race and gender equality.

Missing the most important one: Provide type/function annotations.

I'm also skeptical to all the recommendations about opening up the internals, getting out of the abstractions and providing replaceable hooks for everything. This can create premature abstractions for every conceivable hook and exposing internals will give you a backwards compatibility maintenance hell when you have to be compatible with internal details you didn't think people depended on.
You'd be surprised how many people provide legitimate information when asked.
It's the opposite for me.

> Houses are usually based on what houses in the area sell for.

I think it's more complicated than that - certainly $100K houses would not be the same size and features as $200K one, and when determining the price estimates, this is usually taken into account - 1bd/1br is not the same as 3bd/3br.
The name-calling seems a little uncalled for.

I also went to a good liberal arts college and had a similar experience. People studying subjects that probably wouldn't lead to financially lucrative careers were in the majority.
