They do a lot of that by creating satellite offices. But there's always some level of advantage to being closer to customers.

Anecdotally, there's a non-trivial correlation level between people who like the breadth of activities available in the city and level of professional development.

> are they not incentivizing employees to move out of the big cities?

Yes, that's broadly, rapidly occuring in the US (I can't speak to any other markets). It's a trend that will likely result in Silicon Valley getting partially distributed to two dozen cities in the US. Something changed in the last five or so years quite dramatically when it comes to telecommute work. It went from a concept that never seemed to quite live up to its potential, to now delivering. Credit probably goes to the dramatic cost of living increases since the great recession in major cities, ~5x increase in average broadband speeds in ten years + high quality mobile, and companies gradually dipping their toes into the telecommute world and finding value there (constantly reinforcing upward cycle, more companies try it + more people try it, volumes increase, repeat).
So why is Ryanair flying a pure B737 fleet?

How we bootstrapped a startup
Ask HN: Intercom , Uservoice and the likes under one roof for saas
We are SAAS Startup , To develop the tool we need the following features Support Team Chat Feedback Survey Product announcements Discussion room / forums Onboarding
Is there a tool which provides frameworks for all these services . I Believe these frameworks are required for SAAS startup . Pricing is a concern thats why i am not considering intercom , uservoice and the likes .

Thanks in advance for your suggestions and a wish you all a very happy new year :
Hello HN, here is a short summary of how we (3 co-founders from Eastern Europe) bootstrapped a startup. Hope you find it interesting!
Can, but usually aren’t. Advertisers aren’t interested in advertising to you unless it’ll “work” (in terms of sales, clicks, or whatever the KPI is). If I think you want to not see my ad, I don’t want to buy your eyeballs.

My own experiments with GL and the timing-based methods is that they just don’t work well (compared to say, cookies) when delivered via an advertisement. Plugins and fonts work very poorly as well, lately.

I don’t think anyone is using these methods to target advertising, and state-level actors don’t have to (they just bug your ISP).

Who are you trying to protect against?

Actually, just because there is a reason for you to be depressed doesn't mean that you don't have depression. Depression can cause abnormal responses to life's events. Not to mention the fact that a life event - death of a loved one, death of yourself, or a bad situation - can cause an episode of clinical depression. The basics with mental health is that it needs to be abnormal and/or cause problems doing basic life stuff.

So back to your example: Not leaving the bed because your dog died can be a red flag of depression. Or cause it in a few people (death of significant other, parent, or child is probably more likely to cause it though). This is especially true the longer the person has the symptom - none of us would blame a person for taking a couple days off, but you should be able to function at work a few days later.

It doesn't matter if obesity is the cause of the depression if the state of mind keeps them from doing self-care.

And I don't know why it would be bad to let some terminally sick person to take happy drugs. It seriously doens't matter at this point because they will probably be dead. Might as well enjoy what you can of the rest. This is probably a bad example all around and likely hard to diagnose properly.

This is one that I struggle with in JS with React.js components. If you have a little helper component in a file that isn't exported but used in the same file by a component that is exported, it is sometimes difficult to test that non-exported component. Because of how enzyme shallow rendering works you don't get the full tree so that component, if sufficiently nested, might not ever be touched. This forces me to export the component just to test it.

Basecamp is selling all over the world. What should their salary level be like? Bay Area because that’s where a lot of the larger tech companies are situated? Washington State (Microsoft, Amazon)? Copenhagen (where one founder, DHH is from)? Sudney where one major competitor, Jira, is from? I’d say whatever the market is that they hire in. If you wanna pay above market rate, by all means do that. If you can attract employees in Chicago for less than Copenhagen or Bay Area salaries, then by all means, feel free to do that. Employees are free to leave.

What I don’t see is why all companies should follow Bay Area salaries.

Allow me to respond to the downvotes: the author decries the “race to the bottom” due to deregulation and “vile predatory capitalism,” yet that very capitalism is what made air travel so affordable to the masses. In 1974, very few families could afford to fly. Now pretty much anyone in the middle classes can afford it. That “vile” capitalism created competition and that resulted in being able to fly round trip from Denver to Frankfurt for roughly $1000 while in the halcyon 70s, such a trip would have been far more cost prohibitive. It wasn’t regulation that made flying something almost everyone could afford — it was the very capitalism the author seems to abhor.

As far as the downvotes — it’s clear the author has some leftist agenda — first of all lying about the reasons for the ending of Concorde — it wasn’t some environmental nonsense about emissions or noise or even fuel costs — it had to do with maintenance availability. That is just a fact. Next complaining about capitalism that enabled the masses to travel while attempting to evoke Hunter S Thompson when describing drinking champagne on the upper deck. How ironic that the author savors the exclusivity of the upper deck, while complaining about capitalism that creates the opportunity to actually make money to buy an upper deck ticket.
Yes, that was my intention. Probably could have been clearer.
Should you buffer your writes?
I do something similar: passwords created by a script, stored in an encrypted file that's only unwrapped when I'm fetching or storing something. It's important that the entire file is protected, requiring a password every single time. Like you, my biggest gripe is sites with special snowflake "make it hard to remember but keep it low entropy" password policies that preclude the original generated password. IMO we as a community need to start shunning such sites the same way we do for rogue SSL/TLS cert providers. As long as they exist, it's harder for even security-aware sites to move forward.
Great tool. I used it to create a state machine diagram - one that I then included in the inline documentation of my Elixir code.

DHH goes deeply into the discussion about why they do it. It's worth for them as this way they can be very selective and keep the employees happy, also they don't have to think about changing jobs, and the company doesn't have to worry about good employees leaving. They basically treat people as not interchangable.
AFAIK, row refresh is done within each memory chip, while the ECC bits are normally on a separate chip (for instance, where a non-ECC module has 8 chips, an ECC modules has 9 chips), so ECC scrubbing has to be done in the memory controller.
> It was fine until they wanted separate accounts on the same service and it failed.

When it comes to designing a system, I try my best to prioritize this way: security, privacy, and finally usability. A product with the best user-experience may have the most vulnerable design. I say this because we need to balance between security and UX. Pick some constraints which make sense to your system.

If we have to accommodate every corner case, the system will become extremely insecure and unreasonable. In your case, perhaps solve it with "sub-account" if that makes sense for your system. To Netflix, sub-account seems reasonable so Netflix gives that as an option for user to share his/her account with his/her family/buddies.

Actually, sorry if being a little out of bound, you probably should help your parents setting up unique email address for them. They want a separate account for some specific reasons, I assume, so why not help them?

Email was created TO be unique. It is we the users who decide how to use that email address, BUT it is not the system/service designer TO accommodate every use case.

It doesn’t help that the url doesn’t give any clue either. If this post was on their domain, then that would probably give enough context.
The problem is that there is no character-type pattern - most especially not your base16 suggestion - that will satisfy every site. Many sites require special characters. Others forbid them. It's literally impossible to satisfy both with a single non-parameterized generator, and as soon as you start adding parameters those effectively become hidden parts of the domain name. Worse, many sites don't even tell you what the requirements are on normal entry (only on change). If you can't remember what particular tweaks were necessary then it's back to the good old "forgot my password" dance - making your email password your effective password for all such sites. It's easy for app developers to be careless or "clever" about their password rules, but it's a pain for users and it's bad for security.

List of global cybersecurity events, 2018
Four Sci-Fi books that get projections right:

* 'Paris in the Twentieth Century' by Jules Verne

* 'Brave New World' by Aldous Huxley

* '1984' by George Orwell

* 'The Space Merchants' by Frederik Pohl and Cyril M. Kornbluth (1952)

Verne predicts correctly many technologies and changes they cause in the society. Probably the
most accurate future projection overall.

The three other books: The Brave New World, 1984 and The Space Merchants neatly complement each other. Our reality is a mix of the three themes represented in these books.

Some people think that 'Stand on Zanzibar' should be mentioned.
>Then, clearly, if a small change to the production code causes large changes to the tests, there is a design problem.
>
>Therefore the tests must have their own design. They cannot simply follow along with the structure of the production code.

The jump indicated by the "therefore" confuses me. I essentially couple my test to production behavior, insofar as it is possible. I do this to test program behavior realistically and because I believe tests should, in some sense, form a specification for the program they test. I don't really care about "testing code"; I care about testing behavior.

I don't have the problem of small changes to code necessitating large changes to tests. It makes me wonder what he does that is causing that.
Introduction to GUI Unit Testing with Qt Test

Dude, you broke the future 2x.
The JVM took too long to achieve that ideal in a way that actually worked for end-user applications. Early java-based client applications had a horrible user experience. Version conflicts were very annoying, especially on windows where you didn't have a command-line culture comfortable with simply switching between versions by modifying PATH and JAVA_HOME. And even when you didn't have version conflicts, Java applications had slow, idiosyncratic GUIs that often did not support basic and common features like ability to copy/paste or switch to arrow-key navigation through menus.

And on top of all that, it would still be more memory intensive than an equivalent native win32 application. Developers usually only shipped java-based UIs to Enterprise Software users who had no choice but to use what their bosses told them to use.

Yes... mostly.

Jealousy factor can't be beat. But beyond making your friends/acquaintances drool on social media, yes the ergonomics stink for classic development.

However, I think variety is nice. Just like in an office situation, sometimes a breakthrough idea comes when sitting alone in an uncomfortable meeting room (and without secondary monitors). At home, I do some work on my back deck (partially remote worker here) but it's only when I'm in that mental place where I need to crawl out of a box and get a fresh look on things. It's also nice during meetings, so long as you prevent outdoor audio from distracting the conference call.
The copyright mess is another example of how corporations have sucked the life out of America. Disney (and others) lobbying for that law is perhaps the definitive example of regulatory capture and how it has an affect on all of us. It makes citizens cynical, breeds distrust in our (wholly bought) government, and it illustrates how tyranny can arrive from any direction, not just the expected ones.
> It is not, but if like it was the case for rowhammer, it was linked to a specific instruction (clflush).

No, rowhammer does not need clflush. All rowhammer needs is to be able to write to the same physical memory locations repeatedly. Normally the cache would get in the way, so the attacker needs to bypass it. Flushing the cache (clflush) is one way, but there are others; AFAIK, it has been demonstrated rowhammer from within a Javascript VM, which has no access to clflush.
or maybe you only hang out with tabloid journalists?

Do any search on google about journalism and the future of journalism and the majority discussion isn't about regulation or tabloid (tabloid is way to popular to be under danger)

I have been involved in several newspaper projects both one trying to be extreme high quality and one which was supposed to be free.

Regulation have never been a serious discussion point when it comes to discussing journalism, so yes perhaps we do hang out with different journalists.
