Here’s a quick experiment. Tell your devs what you want. Get the hell out of their way. Identify the people and rituals that are ‘interrupting’ by nature and put in huge road blocks and obstacles between them and your devs. See and measure the difference in output. You will stay amazed.

I really don't understand what you're talking about.

Firstly: yeah, can you squarely address the simple fact that blockchain tech has helped people acquire prohibited plants and compounds? People who previously didn't have access? That alone is enough to prove that the vehicle is not in neutral - it hasn't achieved literally nothing.

And second, you seem to have entirely whooshed over the point about porn and the internet - and to be clear, I didn't make this point up, but you seem not to have ever heard of it? Or something?

It's simple: porn pushed the internet forward. That doens't prove that the internet is worthless (or that it is worth only as much as the porn it can carry). Drug sales have pushed blockchain tech forward. That doesn't prove that blockchain tech is only as interesting as the drug commerce it can facilitate.

I'm just saying: be patient. Ten years isn't a very long time in this context. Well-intentioned, thoughtful people are working on it. The fact that it can seemingly overcome a long-time and entrenched evil in the world says that there's something there. Let's work out what it is.

My beloved matte-screen 2011 17-incher failed unrepairably a couple of months ago. I decided to get a new 2017 15-inch model rather than take my chances getting another 17-inch one off of eBay. I had read lots of complaints about the keyboard, so I was prepared to possibly hate it, but it's okay, though not quite as good as the old one. The Touch Bar and larger trackpad seem like gimmicks to me. Well, the Touch Bar has its moments of usefulness, but against that, I hit it accidentally too often, and it's sensitive to the slightest touch.

Overall, I'm not unhappy, really. It is faster than my old one was, and much lighter, and has better battery life as long as I'm not doing anything CPU-intensive. Would I have been happier with the older 15-inch model they're still selling? In retrospect, I don't think I would have been any less happy, and I would have saved some money.
That reminds me!

At least one exchange that I know of was front-running me.

I'm not saying which exchange it was as I don't want to get trouble for outing them - but it was definitely going on.

I tested this by putting in orders at times of low activity (i.e. nothing for minutes, then I'd place an order, and the best offers would be taken up by a "bid" that came in ahead of me. This could happen in theory but when it's happening as the order is received there's no realistic chance of it being anything else).
Tk is pretty fast. It has bindings in multiple languages, though I'd suggest TCL. There is a starkit idea floating around, where people package a binary for each platform along with any other dependencies. It is much lighter than electron.

> they belong in the same category as French or Japanese

Huh? French food I can understand, though I don't have much of a taste for it, but Japanese food is terrible -- I was there for two weeks. A lot of foreigners are deeply disappointed when they travel to Japan, especially by sushi (though I found a couple of good sushi places). However, by far the best food in Japan is found in Chinese-style restaurants. Chinese food completely eclipses Japanese.

Eastern European food is fantastic. It completely spoiled me and my gf -- we couldn't stand the much-loved Spanish tapas when we went there. And Poles make as good or better pizza than Italians.

And then we went to Asia and found ourselves in a whole different ballgame.

> you can get an _amazing_ meal for cheap in Greenpoint

I completely sympathize -- Polish food is rewelacyjne when you're used to shitty American food.

But nobody has an a1 allergy. This is just making the fad without the medical condition existing at all. So in this case, no, there is no benefit, aside from redistributing wealth from the feebleminded to the "job creators". Some people think that's a good thing.
It's not like it's the first. Doesn't Fortran default to 1-based? R and Matlab are also 1-based. Julia like those two are aimed at a mathematical domain, not zero-based offsets.

Anyway, it's not hard to get used to.
Purpose is a teleological term and life is the ultimate end, an end in itself. So, as the saying goes, asking what is the purpose of life is tantamount to asking what is North of the North pole, i.e. it is an invalid question. In your terms, expressed as a tautology; the purpose of life is life.

DBs).

I get what you’re saying and I see where you’re coming from, but to try and use this phone number analogy, it’s like telling someone what city/state they’re in based on their area code when they’ve opted to provide you no location information beyond their phone number.

The phone number itself contains location information. It’s not necessary accurate information as I could easily (and do) use a 212 number wherever I am I the USA, not just in New York.

Finally, we’ve had rulings about phone numbers and IP addresses. Phone numbers “belong” to the end user, not the operator, and move with the user if they want to. IP addresses “belong” to the carrier, and are non portable. In a number of cases, carriers actively provide city-level accuracy for where they’re using their IP space as it actively improves performance for end users.

That’s correct for milk-based drinks, they often have a ‘stabiliser’ added to improve the texture - often xanthan or guar gums - to make them feel creamier and keep the additives in suspension. In ice cream other gums are used to trap air in the mix leading to a lighter creamier feeling product that uses less milk.

However fresh pasteurised and UHT milks contain no additives.

Ask HN: How can a startup fight the social media API monopoly?
We're a startup in the social media scheduling world. The APIs now exist to post to Instagram but they're locked off to Partners. To become a Partner you need to be spending $500,000/month on ads (on behalf of your end customers), or know people in the right circles (you have to know someone from Instagram who will vouch for your product).

This has created a situation where the likes of Buffer and Hootsuite have an instant and unfair advantage in the industry, making it impossible for new entrants in the market to compete.

A second example of this is the Facebook API. After the Cambridge Analytica scandal they have paused all app reviews and revoked permission for any apps to post to Facebook Groups.... That is unless you're a Facebook Partner and you'll get the opportunity to have your app reviewed in no time at all.

Once again we've been hobbled as a start-up and have had to remove functionality from the platform.

As a start-up founder, can any HN folk give some guidance on how we can compete in this monopolistic environment? Not having these two integrations is a major deal breaker for the majority of potential customers.

The post raises some good points, but in reality, I've been using T2 instances on my projects for a long time with good results.

It really comes down to your use cases. If you have an infrequently used web app, or have a site that needs to run some small periodic tasks, then T2 instances are fantastic for this sort of thing, and they are super cheap too.

I normally run Sinatra/Padrino based web apps, and keep a close eye on my CPU credits via AWS's monitoring tools, and I have never gotten even close to using up the allocated credits.
Either Apple did no durability testing, or Apple did durability testing, uncovered reliability problems, and decided to launch with this keyboard anyway.

While the author says "Don’t mistake Swift for TensorFlow as a simple wrapper around TensorFlow to make it easier to use on iOS devices." , the only thing Python is missing from his wishlislist of features is "6. Native execution on mobile".

"7. Performance closer to C" is a non-issue - all the parts where performance matters are going to run on CUDA anyway and there's no performance hit there, and very little computing time is spent in the actual python code.

Obviously this is a difficult thing to study / track / quantify, but you are just absolutely, positively incorrect. It has been a life changing development for several patients whom I know personally.

Start using a new email address and move your accounts over to the new email address. Never delete your Google account just make it irrelevant. If for some reason you need to perform a password reset on an account you suddenly rediscovered after a few years of inactivity, your Gmail will still be there for you to perform the password reset and email address update.
Its possible to do so, but it is difficult. A few years of experience in a successful systematic team is extremely helpful. Among many other things, you learn that running a profitable strategy involves the coordination of a number of different types of tasks, which are similar but different enough so that its difficult for one person to be simultaneously good enough at all of them.

To run a successful strategy requires strong signals (indicators that dictate what to buy/sell and when), execution (actual filling of orders on exchanges), risk management (which can include statistical risk modelling as well as draw-down controls), and infrastructure (the wrong type of bug can be costly enough to kill the whole operation!).

As mentioned earlier, there is overlap in the skills and experience required for these broad categories, but people in the quant hedge fund/asset management industry typically specialize in one. This is where larger shops have an advantage. The entire strategy is only as good as its weakest link. Its common for people who haven't worked in the space to focus mostly, or even exclusively, on the signals and infrastructure aspects.

If you were to group most of the successful quant funds out there by alpha time horizon you would see that funds within the same bucket are generally running very similar types of strategies using very similar signals (the general concepts behind successful signals/execution of varying time horizons are actually not that complicated, but just might take a while to explain). Again, that's not say its easy to do. With most of the equities and derivatives markets getting ever more efficient, tighter coordination and implementation of the entire strategy pipeline (signals, execution, risk mgmt, infrastructure) can lead to significant Sharpe/Information ratio improvements.

If you wanted to get a feel for how some successful people in the industry think about the problem, I would recommend reading through the following books in roughly the corresponding order:

1 - https://www.amazon.com/Efficiently-Inefficient-Invests-Marke...

2 - https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_1?url=search-alias%3...

3 - https://www.amazon.com/Active-Equity-Management-Xinfeng-Zhou...

One of the worst and most indicative things about the Shopify developer ecosystem is that there is no first-class support for source control - of any type - in Shopify's online theme editing system. It is expected that if you wish to integrate any nontrivial application, you'll give access to your full admin panel to low-paid, marginally-English-speaking integration techs at the app developers, and they will edit your live theme code. Woe to anyone trying to integrate two such applications at once - what usually happens is one app's devs will give up mid process due to the interference of the other, and leave you high and dry. I've had to "rescue" botched integrations by pulling down historical theme versions, manually diffing them, and retroactively committing changes into an offline Git repository just to make sense of who touched what.

It's impossible to customize the information collected at checkout, including structured shipping instructions, so there are various hacks around doing this on the cart page. It's impossible to customize pricing for certain classes of logged in users, beyond simple discounts that wreak havoc on your accountants trying to get effective line item prices into their systems. Adding structured data to any objects requires parsing description text in the template language and makes you wish you had the flexibility of the Salesforce API... and just typing that sentence makes me shudder.

For those without the training or resources to build a full-stack modern website, Shopify is far better than the alternative of adding shopping cart widgets to Wordpress or Squarespace. But it's far from perfect, and its capabilities as a frontend platform have stagnated: https://developers.shopify.com/api-changelog . Knowing what I know now, I'd recommend that anyone with full-stack experience jump directly to https://spreecommerce.org/ or http://getsaleor.com/ - a higher learning curve, but when you inevitably hit the ceiling of Shopify's capabilities you'll wish you'd used one of those.

If you've never needed to know it, what is its value for finding a good candidate? A lot of these questions are basically testing whether you did a CS degree.

A bunch of wrongs don't make a right :-)

And honestly, it's because I do numerical programming that I value zero-based offsets. In addition to subscripting arrays (which I could do in any base), I use those subscripts in the math itself. For instance, the zeroth bin of an FFT indicates the zero frequency. I also choose the zeroth array element to represent the constant term (zeroth power) of a polynomial, and so on.

The common places where math notation uses 1-based subscripts (matrix notation) have more to do with people saying "first", "second", etc... With a few exceptions (the Hilbert matrix comes to mind), the base of the subscript isn't actually relevant to the math itself.
No, because web discussion boards are still behind where NNTP news readers were 20 years ago.
