I like the idea but in most companies the salary structure doesn't allow it.
You have to align well-being of "the rest of us" for us, against the will of most of us, though. Say "carbon tax" out loud, and most regular people will shout you down, because it'll make their gas prices go up.
Ah, it has the fabled BSD+ license: https://github.com/facebookresearch/Horizon/blob/master/PATE...

I guess that's not too unusual from their opensource contributions at this point.
Plenty of people would complain more loudly about Saudi sheikhs than anyone else.

That's not what happens at all. You've never been to Marbella, have you? I watched a TV show some months ago about how nicely they behave there. Huge tips, very discreet people, lavish mansions with many jobs for the service... Now in Spain there's a heated discussion about selling weapons to Arabia (about murder of Khasoggi) since our shipyards are a vital source of jobs near my hometown.
Or at that point, they could just turn the Foxconn factories into hospitals, as I'm guessing the demand for cell phones will have plummeted.
They totally are gatekeepers. And don't forget Microsoft too.

They own the horse-racing arena, and have a horse in every race too.
I used to live in a new mixed-use development. The builders built as much of the residential parts as the county would allow, and then basically quit. It's been the better part of a decade now and the place still doesn't include a single office or retail unit. A huge chunk of land just sits empty. I'm certain that if the county stepped out and allowed the developers do what they wanted, that land would instantly be filled with even more residential units and that would be it. (And given the demand for housing, that may not be a bad thing, but the result isn't mixed-use.)
Is that access to company legal resources or vouchers to independent lawyers? There is a big difference, especially when the legal issue is employment related.
I am more and more certain that there need to be strict legal blocks to the vertical integration of content production, content distribution, and Internet/network services.

Nobody wins when any of these three can be owned by the same interest.
I think you misunderstood. If you're dragging thumbnails onto a flash drive, it'll copy the source photos, not copies of the thumbnails. The terminal example is thumbnails or full photos since the files themselves can't be used by the terminal. You have to specify whether you want it to pull a location for the thumbnail or the full photo. In that instance, you wouldn't be using multiple files because there's no use case for a terminal where sequential files would be used without some kind of additional characters or arguments.
You still need some zoning regulations: living above a grocery store is great (especially if it's 8-8 or 8-10 or some such, 24/7 would probably be less nice), living above a nightclub is hell.

The traditional media also pumps out loads of fake news, FUDs, and Ads by super-pacs. The only thing the traditional media isn't doing is selling enough ads to have a world scale impact, because they're a dying form of media compared to social networking and the search.

When I'm on twitter I see a nice mix of utter crap and useful information. When I read the NYT it's just a carefully curated selection of total crap.
You could delete Facebook and use the Messenger app only. In fact I would even go ahead and tell you to use the Messenger Lite version. Uses much less battery and includes almost all the features, except for the shit features.
What's a better metric?
Neither, I was just curious. Machine learning is a technique that is, at least attempted, to be used in a lot of scenarios nowadays. Something like this might sound suitable.
But anything that can steal money using that token and 5 minutes is a very long time indeed.

Then implement a check for the token in destructive operations. Should keep the performance impact pretty low.
I have trouble imagining truly complete anonymity being helpful. This is an invitation to abuse the system. Abuse could result from personal conflicts and office politics, or even people who wish to undermine the system itself by entering bad data.
Knives, much like fire, are both hugely important, but they have their places. Bringing either onto a flight seems unneeded.
>The increased lifespan could be at least partially responsible for the increased cancer rates. All populations that see an increase in lifespan see an increase in cancer rates.

Of course, but wouldn't this be so obvious that the researchers would undoubtedly have accounted for that as a confounding variable? At least I hope so.
> I understand they want us to buy a proprietary mongo license, but I don't see how it would even be possible to run mongo as a service without.

I think that's the point...
I really like this concept as I've typically found this data extremely difficult to find. Traffic data is a little easier with tools like SimilarWeb and SEMRush, but finding verified revenue data is difficult. Here are a few questions/comments that I had at first glance:

1) The site went down after I tried to login.

2) Can anyone submit data? Do they have to have a source?

3) It would be helpful to have filters for viewing the data.

4) You could consider adding a box for categories that the users could input. For example, you could have users select web apps as a category.

5) Personally, I'd have hesitations about submitting my data. You might get more data if users could submit under a general category or psuedonym, without disclosing the name of their business to the public.

Hope this helps!

It is horrible. The murder rates of such societies are many times higher than our modern, boring system where we just call the police and have the courts deal with it.
No, you're clearly arguing in bad faith with him and you clearly have not read the article. The sections titled "Women earn less than men at every wage level" and "How might discrimination—in the form of norms and expectations—be affecting the wage gap by constraining women’s choices?" might be enlightening to you, given your original cherry picked issue.
It was always premised on the idea that implicitly threatening someone with violence is "polite". It also breaks down rapidly when people have had a few drinks.
Silicon Valley is not responsible for most of the world's innovation. Not even within tech. If the internet started any one place it was at BBN around Boston. The web started at CERN. Microprocessors started at Bell Labs and Texas Instruments. Cellular phones started at Motorola, Ericsson, Nokia. Amazon's up in Seattle, next door to Microsoft, and even Facebook is an import. SV isn't even a player in biotech, clean tech, materials science, etc. The cult of Silicon Valley is getting ridiculous.
Thank you for offering this. This is far more helpful than a truly anonymous system.
Windows 3.0 and especially 3.1 were where it took over from DOS in the business world.

That just sounds so naive.

I appear to be the top ranked woman on HN. I appear to be the only woman to have ever spent time on the leaderboard here (under a different handle). Historical surveys suggest the membership was possibly as much as 98% male at one time.

I get nothing but crapped on when I say that. I get nothing but mocked when I suggest that is indicative of personal competence on my part. People mostly admit to recognizing me at all in order to say something dickish. It's relatively rare that I get genuine support.

I got to the leaderboard by not grandstanding, not pissing on all the guys here, etc.

I'm not naive, though I may well be on my way out the door because I've been thrown off of plenty of other forums for saying "The emperor has no clothes." It's generally a socially unacceptable thing to do.

But it doesn't come out of naiveté by any stretch of the imagination whatsoever.
In other words, "that's how we've always done it". Is the justification for continuing to do it that way when the very foundation of that is based on outdated abstractions? As mentioned, there's no tangible reason for using directories and files as organizations except that we're fitting modern paradigms into existing ones. We're retro-fitting them to a system that existed because of technical limitations that don't exist now, for some reason.
There is a great margin quote in Concrete Mathematics that overs this general idea, to me:

There are two kinds of generalizations.
One is cheap and the other is valuable. It
is easy to generalize by diluting a little
idea with a big terminology. It is much more
difficult to prepare a refined and condensed
extract from several good ingredients.

While they may not be a good foundation to build upon, they are good marketers. Just a roundabout way of saying adoption begets adoption and barriers are the opposite (though sometimes the trade-off is worth it as may be the case here).
Older urban areas are grandfathered in, but a lot of the US follows an exclusive, euclidian (after the city of Euclid) zoning model, especially for the suburbs: an area is either commercial or residential and there is no distinction between types & nuisance of businesses at that level of zoning.

How do you get them to cooperate though? What's to stop AT&T from playing them against each other and just saying the first one to accept their terms gets a sweetheart deal, and everyone else is going to have to pay even more?
I feel a little like I'm on this road myself. I've got a design for a type of fusion reactor that is simple and elegant, but I'm having a devil of a time convincing anyone that it's worth working on.

It feels like the Idea is stuck in limbo and I can't get the resources together to test it.

I feel like I have a responsibility to the Idea itself. As long as there is a chance that it could work, dropping it feels criminal.

It needs to be killed completely, through testing, or it's going to keep haunting me.

Sure in music circles, but National is pretty big in DSP circles and if I just search NI in google, National Instruments is the first 5 results followed by a news story followed by Native Instruments. If you go to NI.com, that's National Instrument's website. If I search for NI DSP, NI analog, or NI filters all return National Instruments top billing.

I think it's reasonable that someone might get confused especially since the PDF (About DSP implementations of Analog Filters) doesn't mention Native.
I think the size of the company determines this far more than the industry does. I prefer to work for smaller-sized companies or ones that don't treat their employees like children with locked down computers and access. I work in the corrections industry (think ankle bracelet monitoring) and there are no such regulations. In fact I use my personal computer for all my work people it blows the standard equipment out of the water. Even so all our devs have full root on their boxes and install whatever they want.

Also I find it very hard to believe that everyone working at FAANG companies is using a locked down computer.
It's not a criticism of you personally. The last time we had a conversation was before you created this HN account and I didn't look at you bio before reacting to your comment.
> "If your employer started murdering people in the streets outside your office"

What an idiotic comparison (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straw_man , like really?).

I get your point that some stuff should never be happening in a work place, but you should be able to articulate it properly in order to be taken seriously.

Earlier Labs | Senior Full-Stack Software Engineer | Kitchener-Waterloo, Ontario, Canada | REMOTE | https://goo.gl/forms/f1tYA2Jv4QQtpgYn1

We're a two-person software consultancy helping start-ups in San Francisco and Silicon Valley get things done. We're looking for a senior full-stack software engineer, someone who is professional, takes pride in their work, and is comfortable working remotely and dealing directly with clients. Depending on the needs of our clients, we take on end-to-end projects or integrate with existing development teams.

Over the past two years, we’ve worked with a wide variety of clients, which means a wide variety of tech, and we pride ourselves on being able to adapt and deliver. While we are looking for a seasoned engineer, we don’t require you to have experience using a particular language or framework; the ability to pick things up as you go is what’s essential. That said, we're currently doing a lot of work in Node, React, and Shopify so bonus consideration will be given if you have experience with these.

We work remotely from our home offices and you would, too. You’ll interact directly with clients and have the freedom to set your own schedule and complete your projects however you work best.

Get in touch if you’d like to be the third member of a small, professional team.
Very interesting article, even if from 2012.
Usually I'd be very sympathetic to this argument, but this person admits further down they drink far too little in general. I'm not perfect by a long shot, but I'd like to think I've got the fundamentals down.
In my country (Italy) AFAIK you're not allowed to carry a knife (any size, even the smallest) in any public place (pub, restaurant, post office, ..).
Even on the streets or driving the law enforcement officers could ask you for a sound motivation to carry it.
Nope. I had to ask my favourite search engine since my observation on the topic was not deemed that relevant here. Surprisingly simple answer:

"At many medieval dinner tables men and women ate in couples from a bowl shared between them, and when they did, men were expected courteously to serve their female partners, cutting portions of meat for them with their knives."

So that explains my observation of the paintings from the era that only show the men with knives.
And if they are innocent? That investigation will come with an impact to the accused. A serious one.
A 'devoted user' that doesn't pay for the service, doesn't read the emails they send, and logs on at less than 3 month intervals?

I keep my full photo archive synced between a server, two workstations, and two laptops -- spread across at least two physical locations. I can't begin to imagine the thinking of someone who keeps all their photos on a single vendor's system, especially without some sturdy SLA in place (and even then...).
The Origins of the Blink Tag
I have to disagree with #1. The overwhelming response at this stage is a big FRIG OFF from the other end who in the past 10 years have steadily been receiving from various "disruptive" startups, who all read the same pile of garbage that is "The Lean Startup", who all preach the same fucked up assumption- that the rest of the world has access to the same socioeconomic environment, "The Country Club", friend of a CEO father who knows people, etc.

I feel that it's no longer a merit based but short term pump and dump in which private equity is traded but not without surrendering your control as the founder and that you are now on the dole on a community of investors that trade shares for pennies and have every legitimate reason to dump it to unsuspecting public market to reap profits.

Advices like #1, In 2018, honestly irrelevant, and increasingly sounding like the new telemarketer. For instance, I repeatedly get calls or emails from a variety of SaaS founders or other developers who started their product that I've grown to detune and avoid them.

The big marketing fields are prohibitively expensive so those with the pocket can bid up and essentially deny competitors access to the same consumers.

Trying to sell something that doesn't exist can be done, but not without compromises with unclear results. Why? The power dynamic is asymmetric due to the sheer capital and a hound of top tier lawyers ready to sink their teeth into your startup.

Meaning, they can even sign a memo or an agreement to express interest and then pull out. What the fuck are you gonna do, sue a Fortune 1000 company?
people give Jobs and Gates a lot of credit because they focused on commercial products that were marketed to the public -- Linus, for me, is probably the single most important person to technology (software) in the last 35 years. With Linux and Git alone, it as impactful and game changing in this industry that I can think of. I cannot think of any person that's been this important to my career and my income.
> If buying it then means the transaction between us is over

It should be, but iOS sometimes requires code upgrades which makes me wonder how long a person supports a version of a program on iOS. The whole length of support versus new version is problematic. I would assume version fixes for a number of years. Should be ok for an educational program since the useful lifetime is limited by the nature of the lesson.
Facebook's VideoStory dataset trains AI to 'automatically tell stories'
Indeed. Cholera was a serious problem. in 1854, Dr John Snow, suspecting that contaminated water rather than "miasma" was the cause, mapped the cholera deaths in Soho, London: https://www1.udel.edu/johnmack/frec682/cholera/

The closer to the Broad Street pump, the higher the death rate, with one exception: the nearby brewery. The workers at the brewery drank beer instead of water. (The water used to brew beer is boiled, killing the bacteria.)

Dr Snow had the handle removed from the pump, ending the epidemic. There's now a pub nearby called the John Snow (in what is now called Broadwick Street), and a kerbstone made of pink granite where the pump was.
Depends on what we had instead. The fact that Wintel systems had unlocked bootloaders was absolutely critical. But it could equally have been started on any system with an MMU. Certainly it's been ported to a lot of systems.
All knives are essentially banned in public in Denmark.

Yeah it is lame, but unfortunately you can't challenge politicians to a duel anymore.
