One big factor is just knowing what you're eating. If you're lucky enough to work somewhere that provides meals, request that your food services provide nutritional data so that you can make healthy choices. Once you have that information, it's up to you what to do with it.
I have 2FA on my shared AWS account - my project partner and I both scanned the QR code at the same time. (You should be backing up your QR codes anyway in case you lose/break your primary phone; scanning it simultaneously with a secondary phone is a great approach for this.)

Even if this weren't possible, it would still be better to use 1FA than to arbitrarily pick one person to have root account access and lock the other person out simply because you "should" have 2FA.
"using voice chat" ... "almost no desire to socialize"

What is your definition of socialize? What makes voice chat different from voice, other than lack of body language/non verbal cues?
It takes a huge amount of money to build a successful hardware company and they failed because they ran short of cash. However Amazon seems to believe that their product idea and the people who conceived it have value, and that's what they paid for.

One feature of floppy disks is that the recording technology and the format is independent from the physical medium, the limitations are mostly imposed by the disk drive, the encoding and the file system, not the medium itself.

Well, this "feature" creates significant compatibility issues as all the vendors created their own proprietary formats, sometimes with patents. As a result, together with the economics of scale, often, the standard format is not the best design, a simpler design that serves as the lowest common denominator.

On the other hand, due to this feature, it was already possible to store 1,760 KB of data on a 3-1/2 inch HD floppy on a 1986 Amiga. And in 2000, it was possible to store 32 MiB of data on a standard 1.44 MB floppy disk, by using a SuperDisk LS-240 drive (although random write is sacrificed, the entire floppy must be rewritten if a change is needed, like CD-RWs).

I believe the advancements in magnetic recording technology in the past 20 years allows one to achieve even higher capacity on a standard floppy, and it can be as cheap as early floppy drives if mass produced, only that it doesn't make sense to do so.
Where did Nietzsche advocate slavery and genocide? Just because someone points out that our nature tends towards complete domination of others doesn't mean one advocates it! He hated what we are! This is the greatest misconception of Nietzsche. People find him contemptuous because they derive all their power from the binds he sought to liberate people from. They also read him way to literally. He was a poet philosopher. He wrote in a way meant to invoke an intellectual experience, rather than lay out a systematic dogma.
Not necessarily. Companies fail for any number of reasons, not just executive incompetence. Eero is a hardware company, and hardware companies are require significant capital to operate. Its a very difficult space to operate in, especially pre-launch.

> Hardware startups require a lot of cash, and technological progress can render a product obsolete before it has a chance to take off. Nearly all (97 percent) of the 400 hardware startups tracked in a 2017 report from CB Insights either died or became "zombies," companies that survive for awhile with VC money, but eventually fizzle out.

Amazon purchased this company for its technology and people. Having the entire executive team leave immediately would make the transition exceedingly difficult. They want to incentivize these people to stay to assist in the transition, hence the payout.

The particular line to which I was responding:

> Let's not forget that during the same times we were struggling with proving the Earth was circling around the Sun because of what the scriptures said.

That characterization is mostly false. The geo-centric model was neither adopted as a result of the Christian scriptures (it was inherited from the pagan Greeks) nor was it (primarily) defended for that reason. It was defended because there were solid reasons (given available information at the time) to hold the geo-centric view.

Ptolemy being a pre-medieval pagan Greek was my point. I.e. the debate about cosmology wasn't primarily religiously motivated.

Honestly, sending deltas always seems like a bad idea to me as this allows subtle synchronization issues to derail simulations bit by bit before the divergence is big enough to be noticable.
>giving a special meaning to existing legal identifiers in certain contexts risks breaking existing code

That's just what scoped variables are. I've never seen it be a hazard other than shadowing names, and you'll have the same problem with @1, @2, etc. A closure returning a closure for instance.

Unless you're just completely misunderstanding me, thinking I'd be a proponent of fst, snd as direct substitutions for @1, @2? That would be absurd. I'm comparing |fst,snd| fst+snd to @1+@2. Code isn't going to break with either.

I think what people expect in this situation is that they understand the equity agreement.

Startups consistently ask engineers to work extra hours "because equity," and then ask those same employees to trust the complex contracts.

Looks like a somewhat rigged/disingenuous system to me.

Okay, think about what this means: it's no longer about the system finding videos for you. It's now about you telling the system which videos are good. The exact opposite of the goal.

In order to provide signalling, you have to watch a video, incognito, and then, after determining the video's instrinsic value, possibly re-watch it in cookied spyware (ahem! "normal") mode, so that the system is permitted to log "awareness" of your assent to recognize an alteration to your viewing habits.

Do you see how backwards that really is?

Well, what you do is you subsume all of human discourse into a new, faster, online form which can use the powerful mechanisms of variable schedule of reward and monetized viral growth. Moderate and supercharge all of that with AI and Deep Learning. Make sure that you infiltrate all of the big tech companies with underpaid (thus easily radicalized) ideologues who would gladly violate company policies and laws for their cause, or at least exercise bias in the way they enforce them. Use this pool of radicalized confederates wielding this vast technological power encompassing and accelerating all of the industrialized world's most relevant discourse. Use it to control all thought and all discourse.

If people dissent, then use the power over all information online to enable your ideologue radicals to construct propaganda narratives to push your favored view of reality. Use the technological power to construct a hermetically sealed filter/search bubble for everyone willing to subscribe -- then make it addictive to them on top of it! At the same time, find, marginalize, and silence all of the dissenters. De-platform and un-person a few to make an example of them. Control all of the narratives, and if contradictions and inconvenient facts leak out, then craft narratives to explain those away. If pesky dissenters still persist, notice that toxic wacko fringes are unparalleled at drawing attention and generating vicious circles of outrage driven virality. Amplify and weaponize their messages. Start tarring the dissenters. Use unfair guilt by association. The more outrageous, unfair, and toxic the tarring, the better, as it will generate yet more toxic outrage.

Control all of the new digital media. Make it cool for young people to nullify "Free Speech." Make it cool and hip for them to say, "..then f##k your "Free Speech!" Control all of the speech. Control all of the ideas. Make it "uncool" or even socially unacceptable to have any kind of dissenting thought to the pushed narratives.

It's a scary sounding plan, with the potential for tremendous destruction of societal cohesion and culture. I don't think it will work in the end, however.
Intel CPUs have hardware decoding support for VP8 since Broadwell, but Apple's Macs don't take advantage of that. So it seems Apple has more reasons not to support the (Google backed) codec apart from hardware decoding support.
In a 54-page opinion, U.S. District Judge Timothy J. Kelly said changes to the eligibility requirements, made several years after the program began, were “arbitrary and capricious.” Kelly called one of the Education Department’s main arguments “nonsense” and said a series of internal Education Department emails “decimates” another argument.

Kelly ruled in favor of three individual plaintiffs who worked several years in public service and were initially approved for loan forgiveness, only to be notified years later that the approval was retroactively denied by the Education Department based on new rules.

I can chime in a bit in this topic, I've been in similar situations. Comes down to self control, that's easy to say, hard to do...

You need to OWN your diet, OWN what you drink, OWN what you do, OWN all of your actions. I personally will eat a fruit in the morning with a coffee, more coffee throughout the day, mid day I eat either a protein bar (~300cals, or a healthy protein/yogurt/fruit/spinach shake, that can get over 400 cals). I am a really big advocate of fruits, from the sugary-higher calorie bananas (great potassium, bananas are my personal headache killer with a big glass of water), berries, clementines -- easy to eat office fruits.

I personally hate food filled work areas, I have misophonia. I think food should not be in production settings, there should be designated areas for that. Due to some of my coworkers that eat like retarded lhamas and have zero manners (but are insanely smart and talented in their work...), leads me to wearing headphones most of the time.

Mostly sedentary work, I personally eat most of my calories when I am home later after working out/after work.

Resist temptations! Practice healthy habits, build on those habits, habits become habits :)

I also realized I ranted on my reply for you, there is no magic solution other than practicing good habits, practice self control, and then you'll just find yourself making better food choices.
Do what I do at my company that has no free snacks etc on an average day - fast or only drink coffee.
> But it's still not relevant, as the kernel can arbitrarily halt execution of any process at any point, and therefore can read the content of all registers whenever it wants them.

Not if the kernel can't handle interruptions? The only way for the kernel to "steal control" from the process is through an interruption (software or hardware). If all interrupts are first handled by the secure monitor, which handles saving the registers securely, then it's OK.
You blame the students for a program which was designed to give away 700 million, but instead gave away a 70th of that - while rejecting 97-99% of applicants so far?

This at a time when at least 1.5 trillion of tax cuts for the wealthy have been given (about 140,000 times more money than what was actually paid, or "only" 2,000 times more than what was supposed to go).

Staggering. What kind of mindset allows for this?
Learn about calories, learn what a 400cal meal looks like, plan from there!
>> You could crack the NYT editorial page on any given day and be confronted with learned anti-scientific nonsense that would make the persecutors of Gallileo blush.

Oh, so you agree with the fact that religion is at least close to be as bad as anti-scientific nonsense?

>> Monks did come up with the scientific method.

Give me a source which directly says that "monks have come up with the scientific method".

I can give you one: if you open "A History of Western Philosophy" by Bertrand Russell, on the first 200 pages on it you'll find that Aristotle is considered to be father of the modern science. Why? Because of a piece called "Posterior Analytics". Look it up, at least.

Ask HN: Is there any video conferencing software that has a question queue?
I work on a fully remote team at a company with a large remote contingency. We use hangouts a lot at work and were lamenting it's lack of plugin/extension support. We'd like to add a way to queue questions so that everyone has a chance to participate in the conversation. I'm curious any one knows of any video conferencing software that supports some sort of question queue and/or a way to create plugins.
Wouldn't this depend on how much debt a person is in?

If you gave someone a raise but they were still deep in debt, the raise wouldn't be enough to cover the growing costs of having a large loan loom over your finances. In this case it would be more effective to pay off the loan if you value said worker keeping more of their money.

Plus not all public servants are facing debt, which means that the people with debt are going to gain less benefit from an overall raise.
The cited numbers in the linked article directly contradict this. Your intuition is about battery "capacity", but the number that matters here is battery cost, which is not the same thing. And batteries are getting rapidly cheaper as production scales past the hand-held devices against which your intuition was calibrated and into the realm of vehicle power and grid buffering.
Problem with that is user experience, even for hardcore terminal users like me. So I doubt anybody would really develop it in a DF level of indepth-ness.

Like, think how non-square zoning would work.
The context is, one person asks another why they are commenting which is one of the oldest, malignantly dimwitted things to say in an online forum. The other person, mindful of the site guidelines and out of a robust and abiding sense of decorum replies that, this being a commenting place, they comment.

Then you come along and want to interpret that reply to actually mean 'Everything permitted on HN is compulsory'. That is, at a polite minimum, pointedly silly.
It's used to incentivize public service jobs. Someone with $100k+ in loans can take a lower paying local government job instead of having to work elsewhere to pay off the loans.
> Multiverse has a mathematical structure behind it.

If there is a multiverse.

> It's a result of trying to explain certain physical phenomena we're seeing.

Yet it is not a scientific explanation until it has be confirmed by observational evidence.

> Christianity has a bunch of tales supposed to affect your sentiment behind it.

When you say "supposed to affect your sentiment" what do you mean?

> It's a result of ages of political manipulation and had been repeatedly used in order to obtain more power.

Do you have a source from which I can do some reading on this?

> Makes you wonder, what's more arbitrary for describing the world?

Does it matter if the result is the truth?
Obviously lack of body language is precisely what makes it different?
The lenders take huge profits as interest, supposedly as payment for the risk that they are taking on.

It's an outrage because if so few people are able to default on the loans, the lenders are not taking on any risk at all, and are in fact functioning more as a kind of mafia style protection racket.
Nietzsche was (arguably) a strong individual who formulated his positions without being beholden to any previous approach but he certainly form in his positions in the context of previous approaches (and had contempt for those who claimed to create ideas out of thin air - see his comments on British Empiricists).

Indeed, Nietzsche didn't even "believe in thinking for yourself" in the sense that he didn't think that random people should necessarily be encourage to do so.

While I, as I've said, I think no one can really embrace all of Nietzsche, I'm fond enough of some of him to want to point out how he denounced all those types that would love to evoke his name - the precursors of the NAZIs, anarchists and all philosophies glorifying "the individual" and so-forth. Not the Nietzsche would have embrace my own ideas but then again, I don't carry his "banner".
I only succeed by banning myself from office snacks entirely (or only allowing a couple explicit healthy options).

For meals I only eat from the salad bar. It takes a few days to really set this this in motion, but then it's easier to maintain until I've cut the weight I want to.

If you've never succeeded before in losing weight it helps to have a personal trainer if you can afford it.
Apollo, FTW. It has my vote. Grabbing content to quote is still a problem (it sits beneath the bottom bar, probably a negative padding issue), but otherwise I have no complaints.
Drink lots of carbonated water and don’t eat until you hear your stomach making gurgling sounds, then eat until you’re full. I put on some weight in December / January (due to holiday foods, and then an accident that stopped me from exercising for a few weeks). Following these guidelines I’ve shed those ~10 pounds. YMMV.

Edit: at my job we have free snacks, coffee and water, but no meals or sugary beverages so not exactly your same situation.

Neither? That's a false dichotomy.
Ask HN: How much equity to give to a mentor?
I am boot-strapping a B2C company. This started as a pet project, but the prospects are very good. I can probably get a seed $100K-200K on my own.

I a senior developer, not a good net-worker, so basically a no-body.

I have connected with a very accomplished and friendly potential mentor, post-CEO, post-acquisition, connected with VCs, similar sector.

We haven't really discussed anything, but i am wondering how much is a decent equity offer for his time.

It would be great for him to evangelize the company and connect me to VCs. He is not interested in any operational role. I also get a good mental boost every time I talk to him.

The company could potentially hit 9 figures. So its exciting.
My experience has been the opposite. Compilers are not just a little slow, but introduce a significant slowdown for every read-edit-test loop, which adds up to such huge productivity losses that any small gains from the compiler catching typo-style / wrong arguments sorts of bugs is totally erased.
Men also don't get pregnant for 9 months, or experience lower wages in anticipation of it. What is it with men and abortion? Scared of your inferior genes being rejected by conscious female logic who knew from the outset she definitely did not intend to produce your vile offspring?

I don't know about that. I didn't really start using Reddit until 3 years ago, and even though I loved the content I could not stand the old school design. I hated it so much that I ended up with multiple extensions and scripts overlayed on top of it to make it bearable for me.

Their new design is a vast improvement, but in my opinion they didn't go far enough and missed the mark on improving the backend capabilities. Why can't I easily apply arbitrary sort and filters to subreddit content? Why is the messaging system unreliable and lack basic organization capabilities?

Yes, because those objects are a fusion of OOP and ADTs. Pure OOP does not permit violating procedural abstraction.

To summarise, FP provides good reasoning in the small, and OO is needed in the large to orchestrate stateful services via protocols.

This is assuming that your payments are enough to beat the interest your loan accrues. Having large student loans could also discourage people from doing things such as buying homes or reinvesting that money into the economy.

Effectively, every dime you put down towards interest on a federal loan is money that could've been spent towards things that benefit the market. If you were to take a pure free market approach, federal student loans are theoretically a Very Bad Thing and it should be in the government's interest to reduce those.
This misconception that people who worked at those stores were all movie buffs is very much nostalgia poking through.

Mostly because lead isn't as cheap as you'd think. The battery chemistries cited most often for grid storage applications are manganese-based, which is cheaper. And even cobalt (the limiting resource for most current personal electronics) isn't much more expensive than lead.

Thank you! It is poor use of time to argue about such a terribly writen article. If the OP author genuinely wants people to know it is OK drinking $5 lattes daily, they need to stop qualifying the consumption as occasional. The article has so many other problems, but the real premise of the article encouraging people to understand variable small expenses vs fixed large expenses and flat wages is critical. The comments here demonstrate how impossible conversations are when discussing the inarticulate.
I just ban myself from eating anything with high carbs/sugar in the office. I find it easier to have classes of food that are not allowed rather than curtail myself at specific levels or count calories.
