Apologies for hijacking this thread a little. I have a lot of ideas about this subject. Just before Christmas I got to thinking about how it was about time someone refactored the résumé format. So I've been building a service called Mighty CV to scratch that itch.

It has some cool features like being able to create a résumé in seconds if you use the LinkedIn profile importer. You'll have a web address for it to live at along with a nice clean readable design. You can also generate a PDF of your current résumé whenever you need to email or print it for traditional channels. I'm just putting the finishing touches to the cover letter/video feature that will allow you to pitch potential employers with text and/or video using a unique private URL that integrates with your résumé page. This is how I intend to send out my résumé in future.

It's a little earlier than I had planned but this thread seems like a good place to launch the private beta sign-up. I'm giving away 1 year free to the first two hundred private beta users at:

http://www.mightycv.com/

The service will initially be aimed at the sort of people who hang out here at HN. If I get traction I'll open up the service a little more broadly.

I'm still a week or two away from my MVP and being ready to send the invites out. I have lots of other features I want to add in the future. This is primarily to be a platform to help you manage the process of finding your next dream job along with making it easy to create a killer résumé. I'm not planning to run any sort of job board or recruitment service off the back of your information either. Hope you like it when your invite comes through.

That's quite an exaggeration. They are standing far away from the ceremony.

EDIT: To clarify, I don't mean to defend them. I just think what they do is appalling enough on its own, without stretching the facts.
For me, the issue of anonymous vs non-anonymous IAmAs is interesting because it shows some of the flaws of "legacy" PR based on controlling the message. Ideally every organization should move to PR 2.0 and away from controlling the message which would resolves many of the issues, but of course that will take a long time.
I'm not particularly interested in talking tax policy on HN as I view a great majority of it offtopic. If you'd like to hit reddit.com/r/politics, I'll talk till the cows come home.
Soon we'll have reddit linking to HN linking to slashdot linking to reddit and we can find out what happens when reality falls apart.
This is a _really_ good article after reading through thousands of emails. It also provides good insights into the bigger picture, and what kind of fascinating glimpse this email leak provides in to a secretive industry.

I'm glad this whole thing has happened.

Unquestionable. Great chemistry. They should consider bringing Joanna fulltime for Paul.
What WBC does isn't so much the honest expression of a political viewpoint or even an ideology, as it is a refined business model - get in as many faces as possible over the most emotional possible issues (I mean, protesting at funerals?), and sue everybody for physical harassment if they so much as touch your sleeve.

They make good money at what they do.
This saying is (probably incorrectly) attributed to Voltaire: "I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it."

The question is, would I defend to the death your right to turn up at someone's funeral and deliberately cause distress to their grieving relatives? Probably not.

There's free speech and then there's harassing people. If Anonymous want to hack into these people's website in order to prevent them speaking then I can't approve. I still can't describe picketing funerals as free speech.
appreciated, thanks!
Can you control from what machines they're willing to enter their passwords or that their chosen password is not re-used for ten public websites?

At least an RSA key has a limited scope-of-use and is something that you, the administrator, can monitor and revoke.

Adding another factor to that authentication can only help (if it's done right).
Sociology Ph.D.? The better sociology programs try hard to be mathematical, in particular, good with non-parametic statistics, all of multivariate statistics, and log-linear.

Also actually doing science in sociology is tough because have to be so careful about problem formulation, controls, spurious correlations, sampling, measures (reliability and validity).

So, for any solid quantitative work on marketing, ad targeting, public relations, public opinion polling, social program design and evaluation, organizational design and evaluation (i.e., high end HR) a good sociology background is about the best.

As I recall, P&G knows this, but I don't know how many others know it!

Independent of a platform which can shut you down just because you are a competitor.

It's amazing that people seem surprised that such a path is even an option.

I suppose you could argue that Level3, the big DNS servers, or InterNIC, or even DHS can shut you down too, but that seems awfully different then Twitter shutting down twitter app competitors, Apple threatening to pull content (competing) apps if they don't get their 30%, and Facebook potentially forcing apps to use their credit system or go home.

I'm really hoping people realize that this walled garden approach is hurting them in the end, and as these platforms move the goal posts more and more for what is acceptable, you might find you have wasted a few years of your life chasing a ghost.

It's up to you which path you choose, but for me, today, I'm making the decision to abandon these platforms and go my own way.
Yeah but how feasible is it to actually distribute an app on the market with this bundled in? Can that even be done?
Eh, I don't know if this is really happening or not. If you go over to the actual "press release" on anonops and look at the comments, there's quite a discussion on if this should fly or not. Sure, there's some people calling on doing it for the lulz. But there are quite a few saying no, they will not participate, as much as they dislike Westboro. A few are calling for not silencing them, but doing some "investigation" and trying to dig up any dirty laundry to get rid of them that way.
But being that some of anon's strength lies in numbers, the disagreement and discussion is a good thing, I think. Even if some people go for it and disregard the argument that silencing free speech they disagree with is bad, the chances that they can do much damage are smaller.

Not knowing where to put the line, is a poor excuse for not drawing one.

Any boundary will be imperfect, but that does not mean we don't set boundaries.

Who decides what's too much? I do. And you do too. And we keep trying to get better at setting intelligent and fair boundaries.
The author of this article has an excellent book titled "NurtureShock" (co-authored with Ashley Merryman), covering this and other relevant subjects. I highly recommend it, even if you don't have kids but especially if you do.

Why Design Education Must Change
You're right that there is no need to exaggerate.

The raft of state legislation in 2007/2008 setting up perimeters (300 - 500 feet, depending on the state) was in direct response to the stepped-up funeral protests of 2006 which were in extremely close, personal proximity to the mourners.

Now, they are 300-500 feet away, but only due to specific state laws.

You can still test it out by using the viewer to open files on the web, without having to log in; this can be pretty useful in its own right. Here's a bookmarklet that opens the link you click immediately afterwards in Docs Viewer:

Did you even read the statement? This is most definitely not a war on free speech.

We, the collective super-consciousness known as ANONYMOUS - the Voice of Free Speech & the Advocate of the People...
Being such aggressive proponents for the Freedom of Speech & Freedom of Information as we are...

Look, I'm all for free speech. It is an absolute necessity. It should be protected at all costs.

...Except for when you have a group that is so deranged and have abused this right to free speech that we hold so dearly that it is barely recognizable. As far as I'm concerned, we can make this one exception, and the world will be a better place. Throw them in the "yelling FIRE! in a crowded theater" category.
Well, there's a piece of Apple-championed technology, Firewire, which doesn't care what OS you're running because it has direct path to the DMA controller, and can read and write physical memory.
Phelps uses free speech to attack military families for ... well, Phelps own brand of crazy.

Anonymous uses free speech to attack Phelps for being an asshole.

And you use free speech to attack Anonymous for attacking Phelps.

How many iterations should we take this?
Ok, I know no one is going to see this, but in looking for this thread I just discovered that the original one I was discussing is now showing up in the "Popular" list, albeit at #147 (5 votes in 10 hours). So obviously if anything was going on earlier, it's been reversed. It's even outranking this thread.
I do not think qualified immunity will apply here.

Well that's the most concrete point you've made so far, but I fear you've chosen brevity at just the wrong time. In addition, I think slaps on the wrist like some guy being forced to resign is effectively the same as immunity, since we're talking about legal repercussions here, and escaping the merest suggestion of criminality creates no deterrent.
Astro-Logical A Statistical Analysis Of Your Horoscope
Absolute bullshit. Free speech isn't meant as a defense of reasonable, well-mannered expression, because such speech needs no protection. It's meant to defend the kinds of expressions that people would actually want to censor.

Let's be clear here. Stalking, harassment, and invasion of privacy--those all may or may not be legitimate things WBC can be rightly accused of. If the WBC is in the wrong, they're in the wrong for disrupting people's funerals by shouting at the top of their lungs, not for the specific things they happen to say in the process. "Hate speech" is a bullshit political euphemism, and the right to march down the street or stand on a street corner to share your views is the essence of free speech. It doesn't matter whether you're the WBC, the Ku Klux Klan, or Lyndon LaRouche.
I'm skeptical towards the ASE approach; Tim Bray's post on the subject has a good overview of the challenges inherent in getting nicer languages working for Android apps: http://www.tbray.org/ongoing/When/201x/2010/07/28/Ruby-and-P...

My money is on Mirah, a new fast, lightweight JVM language that feels like Ruby but compiles to identical-to-Java bytecode: https://github.com/mirah/pindah I don't think shoehorning existing runtimes is a suitable long-term approach.
You need to have a recovery process similar to if you lose your phone.
I picked up a trick from my friend that's been working pretty well.

I have danieljackoway.com mail setup with Google Apps, and I have it setup so that *@danieljackoway.com forwards to <my actual email>@danieljackoway.com. I generally respond from <my actual email>@danieljackoway.com, but I don't give it out online at all. (It is on my business cards, though.) My normal pattern for signing up for stuff is to signup with foo.tld@danieljackoway.com. And then if they won't stop spamming me or they leak my email to something spammy, I know who they are and I can setup a filter so I don't see any of it.

I also use it to tell where people are emailing me from, to an extent. So in my hn profile is hn@danieljackoway.com (which, if I ever get popular enough that I need to start filtering hi@danieljackoway.com to skip the inbox, I can give precedence to).

I also have a label that gets applied to things that are actually sent to <my actual email>@danieljackoway.com

Ask HN: What state do I pay taxes for an LLC?
A friend and I started an LLC mid last year just to release iPhone apps through. We used "The Company Corporation" so that it could be Delaware based and they would be our registered agent. We both lived in CA at the time. A few months later I moved to MA for a month and then went traveling abroad for the rest of the year. My friend hasn't been doing anything for the company, but I've put out some apps that have brought in some money, and am wondering how to handle the taxes now. It's kind of a messy situation, and all I want to do is focus on building stuff. Anyone know how to deal with this, or some resources I should look at? Thanks!
Wow, nice tool. The stats behind it are interesting too:
http://blamcast.net/articles/domain-name-generator
I have a suspicion that they will focus heavily on ie because of windows phone 7 - they desperately need developers, and will do whatever they can to get them on their new mobile platform, be it native or web-apps. (this all relies on the desktop and mobile versions of ie sharing a codebase.
Public Key Cryptography for Twitter (et al.)
I think that this implements public key encryption for a microblogging service like Twitter. It uses a GPL encryption library but I have not checked the validity of it so:
a) use at your own risk
b) only use if it's permissible in your country
c) can someone check the library and see if it works or not?

I wrote the code purely for research and entertainment purposes. The page itself is published without licence or warranty so you can do whatever you like with it.
No, if anything they have declared war on a very specific tactic: protesting at funerals.

There are well established limits on free speech, such as yelling "Fire!" in a crowded theater (Schenck v. US, 1919).

Pretend for a moment that we live in a world where the Schenck case never happened. A group (call them the "Eastboro Baptist Church") has started using the tactic of running into movie theaters and yelling "FIRE!". After all the commotion, they spread their anti-gay message.

This "fire" ruse is starting to get on some people's nerves, so an online group (call them "NAMED") says that they are going to protest the Eastboro Baptist Church.

That's not a "declaration of war on free speech", it's an argument that shouting fire in a crowded theater does not deserve protection under the First Amendment.

Also, for anyone who isn't aware, the Supreme Court has already heard oral arguments (Snyder v Phelps) about whether these funeral protests are protected speech, and will issue an opinion at end of term in a few months.

What I'd like to know is why not just do up the resumé in HTML and style with CSS? I'm not a web designer by any means, but getting a simple style up and running is no big stretch (especially if you're capable of LaTeX markup).

To be fair, I still don't have a resumé in HTML (I'd use Markdown), but I haven't needed to update mine in a while. Next time I do, I'm going HTML with a print stylesheet.
No - not for free courses. This course is meant to be free forever.
When HackerNews falls to AOL...
Ars Technica does have stellar articles and they are not so short... I just think that it is sad that the main strategy is maximizing profit through page views over quality and creative writing... maybe I am crazy but that's my point view...maybe the actual system is broken...
You pay taxes wherever your tax lawyer (or possibly accountant) tells you to pay them.

It's not worth your time to try to figure this out yourself unless you're one of the crazy people (and I count myself in this group) who actually enjoy digging through the various statutes, regulations, and treaties covering such matters.
Another coding story (a sad one)
I know it doesn't mean much, but that AOL and this AOL are really two entirely different companies for all intents and purposes.

An analogous trick if you don't have a domain name is to register with +identifier at the end of your email name, i.e. myname+foo.tid@gmail.com. Depending on your client, you can then see who's spamming you.

To be fair though, the spam recognition on gmail is so good that I don't even have to worry about hiding my email. I rarely see more than 1 spam email a month.

The article actually gets it wrong.

I am smart, the kids’ reasoning goes; I don’t need to put out effort. Expending effort becomes stigmatized—it’s public proof that you can’t cut it on your natural gifts.

No, I don't think that's it. At least for me, I have caught myself thinking many times "I'm not good at X, so odds are I won't be able to be one of the best at X, so it's not worth trying"

(My parents never praised smarts and neither did my teachers, but I unfortunately discovered far too early I could skate by in even the hardest classes with very little effort.)
Last time I checked, HN was just a site that didn't make any money, not a content company. YC selling to AOL, I suppose, would be a possibility, but good luck attracting startups if that's the case.

Either way, I don't see it. This is pretty silly.
Definitely! It somehow manages to brush upon C, HTML, PHP, SQL and some Javascript...so you can actually start doing stuff.

A good starting point for CS, imo (and certainly better than the intro to CS course at my college).

I'm not sure this generalization applies to the same degrees to Apple, Facebook and Twitter.

Twitter especially has a hard platform to monetize to begin with - tweets are about all it has and so can't let someone hijack them even a little bit.

Twitter seems like the best "citizen of the open Internet" here. Distantly followed by Facebook, then with Apple being a foe openness as far as I can see.
