I hear that all the time but I have had decent success by giving a high number first. I have never had a company offer more than I expected.
Thanks, that brings back soooo many good memories!

I wish there would still an easy way for kids to do similar graphics programming on modern PCs. Back then it was very easy to bring pixels to the screen, you just needed a few lines of code to switch to the correct mode. But nowadays with Direct X / Open GL you have layers and layers of abstractions between you and the pixels. And "setting up"Turbo pascal is still way easier than a modern Visual Studio.

I wish there would be some sort of modern Turbo Pascal which lets you do similar programming by faking / emulating the whole VESA stuff.
The 2FA secret is just a URI, nowadays embedded in a QR code and easily photographed or scanned using any of the 2d barcode scanner apps.
Well, having tens of thousands of dollars hidden in a speaker is suspicious. But it seems that there is a verifiable story to go along with it
Don't put batteries in them?
This "right to be forgotten" requirement is quite staggering in scope. Do I need to dig out all of my offsite tape backups and re-transcribe them to edit out my user's data every time a user requests to be forgotten?

Sibling comments mention a cunning scheme with encryption, but that doesn't really help an enterprise with an existing non-GDPR-compliant backup archive.
Keep in mind that in the US, HR reps will sometimes forward the CV of an applicant to the prospective team that they'll be working with. So, while it may be possible to lie one's way past an HR rep with a non-STEM background, it may ultimately backfire on you. Your prospective coworkers have much more incentive to scrutinize your CV for accuracy.
That is not true at all, small businesses and even individuals get a chance to negotiate, I have done so myself. You clearly have no experience in this matter, and the IRS may actually deliberately perpetrate that myth.
That you disagree with my assessment that angry lead-ins to detailed responses to people insulting your things are appropriate, but feel insulting other people's belongings (while providing incorrect and useless tech advice) is appropriate -- or even constructive?

Because that's what you did say. (:

I (as you mighy expect) disagree with your assessment of what makes a functional community.
There's the concept of "plausible deniability", which we see on display nearly everyday by a certain member of the US federal government.

Indeed, it happened very recently over the weekend, when his lawyer claimed it was he who was tweeting, not his boss!

Furthermore, we've seen this regularly from his twitter account: Sometimes the tweets will be word salad only slightly more intelligible than "covfefe", other times they'll be much more intelligible (though not necessarily intelligent).

Which has always led me to wonder: Who is actually tweeting?

Is it the person we ostensibly voted for? Or someone completely different?

Because to me, when a person's words high in government are supposed to be their words, they have a inherent responsibility to them. If someone else is using their account to blurt out ideas which could have world changing repercussions, and that someone isn't the person the electorate chose to represent them, then we don't have a true representative government system any longer. At that point, we might as well not have elections any longer, because the people we are trusting to govern aren't doing their damn job. In fact, they are abdicating that responsibility, and one should think that such an act would be subject to sanctions, up to and including being treated as a treasonous act.

This goes well beyond "plausible deniability", in my opinion. In the case of national government, it is something that can easily lead to war, due to misunderstanding or just malfeasance on the part of bad actors. That this is being seen as normal, that "everyone else is doing it", in any other time would have the populace at their doorsteps with pitchforks and torches, demanding change.

The fact that this isn't happening, despite everything we has seen, continue to see, and will see in the future, is both maddening and disheartening.

We are in dangerous times. This may sound like hyperbole, but it isn't. I'm not the only one who thinks or believes this. Many are attempting to scream it from the rooftops, but are derided as being overly dramatic, or crazy, or any number of other epithets. Others continue with the whole "let's way and see, 2018 will be the year, or 2020 - things will change".

I fear that we don't have long to stop this madness if something isn't done soon.

If I recall correctly the case of the re-entry vehicle tends to be stuff like depleted uranium, which is pretty good protection against neutron flux up until the point where it begins significant breeder contributions. You'd basically have the hit the vehicle anyway to get close enough for that.
One thing proggit has over HN is there's much less political discussion. I find the constant political debates and drivebys here incredibly tiring. Only about one-third the links on the frontpage here of any interest to me as a 'hacker'.

Windows works great, the issue is the applications, and indirectly the developers of said applications, some of which are on HN.

Most applications are requesting hundreds of megabytes if not entire gigabytes, the system will swap to death after you open an app and a browser tab on facebook.

No, that's not obvious.

I would expect if the number of toys didn't have an impact on creativity or attention span, the following:

"Kids switch toys just as often, not matter how many toys they have" And I would expect that because children have limited attention spans - they want to switch after x time.

Yes, the cumulative play time per toy is obvious, but the individual sessions getting longer isn't very obvious.

The result implies, at the very least, that the kids plan out how much to play with each toy based on how many toys there are
Where does all that money go...
My understanding is that the GDPR “right to be forgotten” does not cover backups. There may be some exceptions, but there are practical limits on its reach.

Ask HN: Help me, I might become a CEO
Hey HN,

in the last three years I created an e-health platform for a client who owns multiple orthopaedic practices. With the platform his employees can create training plans for their patients.
I build the platform for beeing used by multiple independent organizations.
The content (in the form of exercise-videos and -information) is provided by my client, who has recognised expertise in this field.

Currently I am refining the product by working close with his employees. At the same time he creates the content so we have enough exercises to choose from.

While we have some competitors like Caspar Health, which got funded 3M€, he is confident that we can build a company from that product. He and his team have teached many other (~2000) therapists and he has a really big network (spanning to the USA), so he knows he is not the only one with the need of such a platform.

The therapists, he and his team have teached, are also the first potential customers we want to sell the product to. He thinks he can "get ~50 of them to pay ~100€/month for the product in no time".

In the last meeting we had, I offered to work fulltime on the project and he seemed confident, that we can do that in a few months.

What would be a good contract for everybody, while keeping in mind, that
* I will build the thing and I will be responsibly for its succes
* he will provide the content
* he has already started multiple companies (also another e-health one which is similar but not the same)
* he won't have much time for the project. He will probably mostly delegate specific tasks to his other employees
* he is the unfair marked advantage with all the !really good and unique! knowledge and experience he has

How much should I own of the company? I thought about 50% and he gets all the money back, he has paid to me until now (~11k€)

What do you think, should we do this? What can I expect? How should I/we approach this?

Thank you :)

Even without a story to go along with it, engaging in "suspicious" activity is no cause for having your property stripped from you without due process.
At first I flagged this because I thought it was just a low-effort joke, but then I realized it was actually concise and insightful. So I unflagged it and upvoted it. Guess I should have read it better the first time!

What requires that they play with all the toys in an hour? A kid with 16 toys can play with each of them for 30 minutes at a time; a kid with 4 toys can play with each of them for 15 minutes at a time. "Length of session" != "total play time divided by number of toys"
General point is right, but Hominidae includes chimpanzees/bonobos and gorillas. So if what I've heard about bushmeat is true, it most certainly includes hominids.
Don't undercharge because you work remotely. In serious business it may be perceived as lower quality work.

For long term contracts it is better to stick to constant daily rate, whatever you are on site or remote, as this makes companies planing and accounting easier. Of course it is fine to charge for travel expenses but that should be also agreed upfront.

Depending on work arrangement your costs may be even higher with remote gig - work space, utility bills, software licenses, hardware, occasional travelling, accountant etc.
Well that's why I think you should research the history behind the laws you're thinking of breaking, but I'd argue that it is more dangerous to blindly follow laws than to blindly ignore them, if you follow a simple "no theft" rule. Agency, life, property; if you take a broad definition, I'd argue that the only true crime is unilaterally taking from others. It's good to have due diligence on how your decisions affect others, and that's one possible function of a legal system, but it definitely is not the function of ours.

It's like how the concept of "The Market" relies upon everyone having perfect information on every economic issue and decision. They don't, but we still use it. And sure, we suffer for that pretty regularly when we relax regulations too much, but what was that quote? "It's the worst system in the world except for all the other ones?"
It's still hyperbolic to assume that two data points (4 and 16 toys) extrapolate to a linear correlation though. The results could just as well support a hypothesis that the correlation with toy engagement is a bell curve peaking somewhere between 4 and 16.
> then the shareholders can sue the company for not acting in their best interest.

Sure, this COULD happen, but it is so rare to happen that it is incredibly unlikely. And has there even been a case of shareholders suing for a company not evading taxes enough? I doubt it, since all companies DO NOT do this.
> I think the problem is deeper than the author suggests. Not only are certain groups of people not getting the resources they need, there is also the matter of a cultural disconnect between the people in power who control the resources, and the underserved who may deserve them.

Beyond the cultural disconnect and more importantly, there is a disconnect in self-interest. It isn't in the interest of those in power to level the playing field. Humans are selfish creatures. We all want our family, friends, etc to have the advantage. We want ours to always have an advantage over others.

This isn't a conservative or liberal issue. It isn't bigots vs non-bigots. It's an innate human concern. Liberal parents/people want to advantage their children, families, etc over the others just as much as conservatives.
Aegis + Aegis Ashore definitely seems to have potential. Assuming a Nork threat you would want to intercept mid-trajectory if you could, and that means pre-positioning your platform in the mid-Pacific. If you are intercepting on the terminal phase then things are pretty desperate...
> You should refrain from posting comments like you did here -- they make the community worse. You should also reconsider how you provide tech support, in general.

So an actively hostile comment in response to an opinionated one is somehow better and not measurably worse? You could just as easily have a discussion on why they think it objectively sucks, and you both may learn something from it.
> "I wanted to see if that would work"

This seems advanced to me. Of course this could be a stock phrase copied from an adult. My 2 year old does this a lot and it makes her sound grown up. As an adult I use confirmation bias to say "yup she's smart".
Right, I get that, but it seems like that statement is the only reason the SEC is halting the ICO. Seems like an incredibly idiotic statement to be making when selling a security. Would the ICO have gone off fine if they hadn't made such a ridiculous statement? I guess it could be argued without such a statement they wouldn't have raised as much money, but my guess is that they could had just hedged the statement to comply with securities laws. Seems like an incredibly dumb oversight, and anyone who knows about securities would have been able to see how dumb and risky making a statement like that is.

This infuriates me. My son would move his focus to something else, and would subsequently be distracted by noises and flashing lights.

It reminds me of 'attract mode' used in slot machines and arcades games, though I at least see that there's direct commercial benefit to this.

Stealing my child's attention for no significant gain to them is plain wrong. Perhaps the commercial rationale is that the toy appears to be more popular than it really is, leading to further sales.

Or perhaps the developers just had a few hundred bytes and a timer interrupt to spare.
I have this problem with most technologies. I was just getting somewhere with one of my personal projects. Then all of a sudden I decided I needed to try emacs. Now I am in a world of org and ledger and spacemacs. Trying to get everything configured. Of course I will probably get about half way through that and something new and shiny will catch my eye.
It already does work like this in iOS 11. Apps can present the System photo picker to you and receive only your selected photo while having their Photos access set to "Never".

If you want to try it out install the Wire messenger (if you make the account with a web browser you don't need to provide a phone number), and try to attach a photo but deny Photo library permissions.

I think it was the EU who took Apple to court over unfair trade practices and special tax deal in Ireland. Not surprising that Ireland cut a deal with Apple. We'll see if the EU lets this go through.

He was too young, but not by much. Gates was born 1955-10-28. The war ended 1973-01-27. Gates was then 17 years, 92 days old, so only 272 days too young to be drafted.

He definitely would have been quite aware of the Vietnam war, not just as a current event, but as something that he might very well have to either fight in or take active steps to avoid.

Heck, I'm about 5 years younger than him, and even kids my age were quite aware of that possibility. For us, this was something that we had seen on the evening news for as far back as we could remember. We knew people whose older brothers had gone. Our schools had plaques or other memorials to recent graduates who had died there. We had no reason to expect that it would not still be going on in six or seven years when we were draft age.
> least corrupt nations on the planet

Only because you don't define lobbying as corruption. In most (any?) other nation, individuals and corporations paying legislators to vote a certain way fits the definition of bribery and corruption perfectly.
Idk it seems particularly good to me.
Maybe not. They could have switched toys just as frequently with 4 as with 16 toys.

Accumulated time would be the longer, but not each session.

But I’m not going to pay to find out what they actually did.
Wait, wasn't it the EU who took Apple to court over a special tax deal for Apple in Ireland?

If you're part of a nuclear family in urban/suburban America, you'll notice that neighborhoods tend to turn over at about the pace children go through K-12 school. That is, new developments are frequently bought up by new parents (or aspiring couples), then the houses start turning over in 8-12 years as kids grow up. It's a natural cycle.
was Vietnamese Communists really a thing prior to the french?
The IRS negotiates all the time, as noted below. Moreover, in this case, Apple paid what Ireland asked. The EU came along and said Apple’s tax deal violated EU law. People don’t go to jail for doing what the IRS told them (or indeed, for having a reasonable but ultimately mistaken view of the law). The law has estoppel provisions that protect parties who rely on the IRS’s representations with respect to their taxes. (E.g. where they say a certain thing is okay then hangs their mind.) Plus, the IRS is a litigant like anyone else. If they think they might not win on their legal interpretation in tax court, they’ll settle to mitigate the risk.
Go is not (very) simple, folks
Well detonating nuclear warheads (literally) near some important asset of yours is probably always some kind of last ditch effort.
If anyone was expecting fair and reasonable comparison you haven't been reading auto magazines very long.

Early in the article:

>As if there weren’t enough built-in tension already in this test, Hong rolls a grenade into the big picture takeaway from the comparison: “Comparing this Model 3 to the Bolt and Leaf isn’t fair—like comparing a BMW 3 Series with a Camry or Accord.”

Because they're comparing off the shelf standard equipped Bolt and Leaf with the top of the line Tesla with extended battery and advanced features.

Sure it's because that's all they had but then they should have waited to do a review. But like tech journalism, auto journalist is all about the reads and clicks in the 21st century.

Do we have the same understanding of code being DRY? Because it is not an axiom. It is a guideline on reducing errors, that are enabled by writing the same information in various places of your code. As opposed to "reduce code duplication at all costs" which does emphasize textual/structural equivalence.
