Say that to my long-time girlfriend who approached me at work or the men and women I work alongside (I work at a very large company) who have wives or husbands in other departments and have no issues.

Men don't "flip out" about prohibitions between coworkers any more than women do. It's de facto not allowed as stands in professional business etiquette but there is no real reason to prohibit workplace relationships, nor any effective means of doing so. People are also friends at work, should we prohibit that as well? How sterile should the work place be? Should I have to submit a request to stop by somebody's desk so not to interpret that I have a personal relationship with them?

Sexual and relationship advances are a fact of life. If you can't handle it, then I'm not sure what to tell you. If you want people to be locked together for a minimum of 40 hours/week then you need to be realistic and expect that people will on occasion form romantic relationships, bad stuff sometimes happens too, but it also happens at bars, on college campuses, and at Wal-Mart. It's human. We're human. Grow up and get out of your bubble.
How soon will computers replace The Economist’s writers?
I think my original statement came off a bit harsh. For more context, I'm a C programmer who managed to avoid C++ and templating for...too long. Rust just has a lot of new (to me) ideas that will probably take a bit longer for me to grasp than other programmers.

As an example, reading the official documentation at first was an absolute struggle due to all the terminology and syntax I was only vaguely familiar from the book. It's getting easier as I practice more.

The more documentation -- the merrier. Thanks a ton for your work!
Author here! Ask me anything :-)
So the main point of Avatar in your opinion -- the reason it was explicitly made -- is that the military sucks? Not colonization or overcoming physical adversity or even just a fun sci-fi romp? It was just $100 million of "lol the army sucks?"

And you realize that a movie about the horrors of the Vietnam War isn't necessarily anti-military, right? America lost tens of thousands of young men and hundreds of thousands more were injured -- the country was torn about the war, with people literally dying in protests. It was a BIG DEAL. Which is why tons of movies and tv shows have dealt with those issues in the ensuing 50 years.

If your movie says "the Vietnam War sucked" or even "Lots of American soldiers came back from Vietnam with incredibly severe mental and physical problems" -- that's not anti-military. That's the truth.

If you want rah-rah, "go Army!" then there are plenty of archived Army recruitment and propaganda films from the 40s, 50s, and 60s on YouTube.

I don't have a phone but I have a number of 7-inch tablets on which I browse Wikipedia, buy stuff from Amazon and other shops, make hotel reservations, read python documentation, whatever, on the mobile web.

I use only a few apps like the web browser and Adobe PDF Viewer. For the needs of a hotel rewards program, for instance, a very simple web app would work on desktop and mobile, be cheap to develop, and low risk too because my experience is that the average app is .
nice job getting it all in there without a ton of scrolling
For that matter, why not just distribute shares of YC, or a YC ownership vehicle, itself, rather than individual member companies.

Take a percent of equity, add it to the "YC Mutual Fund", and return equal value in the form of "YC Mutual Fund" shares at par value.
I don't think they have 1500 companies inflight at once though.
Probably would be good to at least distinguish between "has once-off IAP" and "has indefinitely repeatable IAP" in the store UI.

In times of Weimar prosperity, more people should curl up with a copy of Ben Graham's '29-crash postmortem "Intelligent Investor", IMHO. I can't help but suspect that these barbershop customers will someday regret not having simply parked half of their savings in AAA-rated government bonds, the other in consumer defensive dividend champion stocks, and rebalanced once a year. More power to them if they strike it rich, though.
Ah, thank you. And it’s the answer I suspected (use the admin rights of the installer), but apparently need to burn some points to get a confirmation.
I'm not sure if this is correct but the Flu is more of respiratory illness. There is a Fever associated with it but most Fevers people experience are probably some sort of viral infection and not necessarily the Flu.

Advil and Tylenol can be used when the body can't effectively lower its temperature on its own. My understanding is your temperature rises to kill the virus and sometimes your system loses control and that is when folks get into serious trouble. The medication will help lower your temperature.

I think the most important thing to consider is Starve a Fever and Feed a cold. Do not eat anything sweet ever during any kind of fever. It will fuel it like gasoline on a fire.

My Grandmother lost both her parents when she was 2 years old in 1918 to what they said was Pneumonia. I suspect it was the flu.

I fully agree. When I said I replaced the batteries, I meant it literally. I did the work. It was ugly.

But it was a hell of a lot cheaper than the quote I got from the repair shop, and I didn't break anything. (Which isn't a surprise... I like fixing things.)
Roughly, yes YClist has 1280 of them, and every half year there are more. And at 10 FTE / company average the GGGP's 15,000 FTE total is believable. It could easily be more than that.
>It proves people don’t vote what they’re told to.

... except for all of the people who voted for Trump because they were told to, or because of the conspiratorial BS fed to them by the right and alt media.

It's not actually true that all media was on Hillary's side - that's just propaganda fed to Trump supporters to discourage them from thinking critically about their candidate, and only trust in the cult of personality. You shouldn't be happy that it worked.

>places where there’s no social push to behave in a certain way.

Try to go to those places and make pro liberal, pro feminist, pro multicultural or, hell, even pro Israel comments and see where it gets you.

There is definitely a social push to behave a certain way in most "uncensored" communities because such communities are usually started by or attract right or alt-right posters escaping what they believe to be the censorship of "politically correct" society.

Bitcoin security is partly based on public-key crypto. So anything you would do to secure a private key, you can use to secure your BTC from being stolen. Encrypt it with a passphrase, or store it on a thumb drive and lock it in a safe, or print it out on paper and put it in your wallet to be scanned (e.g. in QR code format) only when needed, or even store it in a tamper-proof hardware dongle.
Except for the dot-com bubble, the railway mania, canal mania, South Seas, and that's just the ones I can think off the top of my head.

Wow, blond AND from the Midwest? A dedicated and caring public servant? Shit, I guess NBC is lucky that Hillary didn't sue them for such a blatant rip-off.

Oh wait, one is a real person who served as Senator and Secretary of State and the other is a fictional bureaucrat who served 3 months on her small city's council and loves waffles.

I'm glad you are happy but please also forgive me for saying this is a very un-American attitude. This country is not perfect but we won't fix the problems by running away from them. I don't need your despair.
I see... Basically, I have to get this message across: "The reason why RN (javascript side) uses unique objects -- frozen, even -- is because they need to have their STRICT equivalent on the 'other side' (java or xcode)".

That being said, I felt like I had 3 possibilities:
(A) leave it like this, although this (to me) feels like a "shut up and believe me, this is how it works",
(B) explain it in plain programming terms (a.k.a. review the code itself), but since this is not the main theme of the article -- and i'm not writing a book -- this needs to be quick,
(C) trying to get the "feeling" across with an analogy, giving up on any pure code explanation

So basically a) no explanation at all b) explanation but might be too quick/bad/hard to understand or c) no explanation but a "graphic" idea of how things happens. I picked c), but what would people disagreeing have picked? (also, if there are options I did not think about, by all means point them out!).

I am genuinely interested, in case I write another similar article later on. Perhaps what I'm missing is that all those interested in my article actually already have this "feeling of how things work" and are looking for a long, thorough explanation about it?

(I've always loved analogies -- perhaps there are less people feeling the same way than I first thought...)
> "places where there’s no social push to behave in a certain way."

This social push is a function of a community. If you happen to not feel any pressure to behave a certain way, you're very likely already behaving in line with the norms of the community you're in.
Actually, AmigaOS had preemptive multitasking in 1985. It did lack memory protection, however. I learned C on the Amiga. It made you pretty careful - dereference a bad pointer and you got a "Guru Meditation" error, followed by a reboot.

I'd like to see something similar to an adult version of this. My father had a stroke about 2-3 months ago. Best I can tell what's being passed off today as "physical therapy" hasn't changed in 25 - 50 years.

Holding a guy by the belt of his pants while he pushes a walker that too easily rolls ahead of him just feels dumb. I also think he finds the approach demoralizing. I have to believe there's a better way(s) that don't coat some ridiculous amount of money.
If you're a billionaire you can just pay the fee to have your transaction in the next block. The network works perfectly for anyone willing to pay fees.

Selling a billion on exchanges without excessive slippage would be difficult, but perhaps not impossible considering that the daily volume is above 16 billion right now. Certainly something in the 10-100 million range would be pretty easy.

At least for our use cases, a Mali GPU works OK.

When I used it many years back, both UI and Mobile, I found it kludgy and odd. The UI wasn't all that pretty compared to Bootstrap so I just started using that and actually forgot about this entirely. I think that's where the actual migration started, with Bootstrap. The other frameworks started popping up later when jQuery wasn't scaling for UI code such as Ember and using Mustache then later Angular, then React, Angular 2, Vue, etc so now, so now jQuery UI/Mobile is completely irrelevant. I would also throw in Sencha extjs as dead too and classify that as enterprise jquery UI.
Actually it’s “hear hear”. This comment has been up for 3 hours already, I’m surprised I’m the first word nazi to correct it :)
Undefined terms like that speak to the weakness of the EULA as an enforceable contract.
You can get access to the same trading APIs GSCO has access to. It does not require much either - the biggest difference between you, me, Jenny from the Block and GSCO is that they can carry much higher risk and provide much higher liquidity and access to exotic markets. Exotic markets are not liquid, so they are not really interesting.

If trading is not your primary business, you really do not want to do API trades.
Curious coincidence... I was thinking of something similar earlier today.

What is physical object had EULA licenses like, software ?

Something more-or-less serious, like "you are not allowed to use this knife to eat meat", or "you are not allowed to use this spoon to eat jelly" or even "it is forbidden to publish a benchmark of this car" (related to an article that passed here on hn like a week ago).

Would such EULA licenses be enforceable ? And so, assuming companies would be allowed to enforce clearly ridiculous terms, what does this tell us about software licenses ?
Physical Bitcoin is just a piece of paper with a number on it, right?
My mom mentioned that she’d heard of bitcoin yesterday. I’m pretty sure that is also a sign.
This seems like a signalling problem. If a YC company looks for funding at some point after demo day, the first question VCs ask is going to be "why didn't you raise money at demo day?" -- so there's going to be an incentive for companies to go after money at demo day even if they're not ready simply because it will be much harder if they wait.

I wonder if it would be effective to tell YC companies that they can participate in a demo day, but it doesn't have to be the one for their batch -- so a company could wait and join the following cohort in order to avoid the stigma of being "the company which couldn't get funding at demo day and is now going around to VCs one by one".
When you're not a legal expert and you feel like you are about to maybe break a term in someone else's license agreement the right avenue is to consult your company or university legal department.

My opinion isn't that remarkable and quite cheesy, but, I seriously think not using windows and enabling two factor authentication wherever possible is the best defense against APT attacks. They are not "a room full of genius hackers" most of their attacks I have read about use phishing attacks that can be stopped by two factor auth (credential stealing) and not using powershell,MS office,windows script host and other dependable and reliable tools that come with windows. It's not that windows is so insecure but that it is so uniform and easy to prepare an attack for.

Try finding a way to have a user download and execute a malicious executable in Linux or a script (much like Office macros) - in my experience it is very unreliable and difficult. You have to resort to 0 days or hope the machine isn't well updated. Please correct me if I am wrong,I only speak from a limited experience.

I get how difficult replacing windows can be in BigCorp and large organizations,but for small orgs like think thanks that are of high risk to APT attacks,I believe the risk associated with windows and single factor auth far exceeds the cost of a linux only network with 2fa and dedicated security staff.
Unless we're talking about the Tesla cards, nVidia is about the worst of the GPU class as far as mining goes. Nobody uses it aside from people who are exceedingly frugal to their own detriment. There is a reason why their prices aren't scaling linearly with the mining boom like AMD, because they are not as good as AMD in most cases.
Yes, the bank can freeze the funds and request the recipient to justify where it came from, that's my point.

For international transfers, I've seen some getting cancelled without notification, the money is just sent back. It's weird.
That doesn't have anything to do with the question of whether "raw number of successful projects using it" is a good metric for how good something is. Lots of successful companies have made mistakes, and there are even mistakes that many companies in a field made simultaneously (e.g. the XML mania of the early 2000s is not fondly looked back on).

I'm not commenting on the specific issue of whether Python creates good trade-offs, just that I think tallying successful companies is a poor measure of a programming language.
Aka... 'too many' companies go on to raise outside money and dilute ycombinator shares. How unfortunate that ycombinator can invest a limited amount of money and have graduates turn around and get 10x as much from other investors. It must be stopped!

On using avian carriers to transport the IP information: would standard bird tags, etched with the IP information, overcome the weight problem?

It doesn't solve the problem of lost avian carriers, of course. :-)
I had a similar experience when I was 15 or so (mid 90s, it would have been). I couldn't even stand up, and had to crawl on all fours when I needed to go to the bathroom or to the kitchen for more water/juice.

Normally, if I were home sick from school, I'd be playing video games, or sitting in front of my computer (Amiga!) hacking on something. Alas, with my head pounding and my vision blurry, all I could do was lie on the couch and stare blankly at the tv, and there was nothing but soap operas on during the day (not that it mattered).

P.S. - got my flu shot this year
Mint?
> It's like a currency in that respect, it's only worth what people think it is with no underlying fundamental.

This is my biggest concern with Bitcoin right now. There doesn't seem to be any rational way to justify or explain its price.

How would someone go about making the argument that Bitcoin is over or undervalued at $10, or $100, or $100K? What's the justification?

Even currencies have far more fundamentals. Currencies at least represent faith in the governments that issue them, and those governments' ability to pay treasury bonds and manage inflation. I have never heard a good explanation for what the price of Bitcoin should be in terms of USD.
The lack of safety net is exactly why the opportunities for profit in the US are greater. In the US you can consume people’s lives to build your fortune, while in Europe you have to take care of your employees.
The exemption makes it even more ridiculous, not only do they want to restrict where you can use the software but they also want to have a say in what kind of applications you can use their software for.

This besides the fact that Bitcoin on GPUs is fairly dead, it's almost entirely done on ASICs now.

If you read the license agreement it states that the term applies to 'blockchain processing', not to bitcoin specifically.
Well, in the case of Instagram, this just shows that Python was a great choice.

They went with a dynamically typed language, were successful, the language they chose added an optional type hinting system, and they wrote a tool that would automatically type hint their code in order to reap many of the benefits of a static type system.

I think that the amount of man hours that went into writing the tool is negligible, so it's a net win for Instagram.

>Look no further than the united states and make a very simple exercice: pick a random media of just any political stance, pick a random foreign policy or national security topic and count the number of times you dont see gospel of the state department.

That's simply not true. Take any international issue and look at the mainstream media and you will find lots of debate. To take just one example, in the run-up to the Iraq War, there were many well-known voices both for and against it.

I may be wrong, but I am guessing you know this perfectly well, and are trying to mislead people for some political or ideological motive.

Well before then, it's greatest impact has been on the climate change "debate" which I think was the first major deployment of the conept and they've got it down to a fine art these days. They just sow the seeds of doubt by getting the sock puppet accounts to ask seemingly innocuous questions, if you follow through with answers it quickly becomes obvious that there was no genuine curiosity, there wasn't just "one thing they don't understand about climate change" but a whole hosting of common denier talking points.
