True, but race and nationality are pretty relevant as to whether you have a mom who has convenient access to software magazines and computers to type the code into.
What’s the difference?

Whether he was put under surveillance for traveling frequently to the middle east or because of a misinterpreted comment, that seems both to be about equally bad. There is of course always the caveat that the FBI might have had other credible evidence but if not that at least should be a civil rights violation. (Should be. I obviously know too little about the law to tell whether it actually is.)
Are you (aside from your main point) saying that the calories in meat and vegetables come from elsewhere than carbohydrates and fats? There is lots of protein in lean meat, but protein is poisonous -- you can't depend on it alone for energy.

A few doctors are starting to use the term orthorexia to describe the obsession some people have with "eating right".

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthorexia_nervosa

These questions unfortunately remind me of a few people I know:

* Does their diet make it difficult for them to eat anywhere but at home, distancing them from family and friends?

* Has the quality of their life decreased as the quality of their diet increased?
You can get some ranking information in Google Analytics.

http://yoast.com/track-seo-rankings-google-analytics/ has the basic setup, but this only tracks which page the keyword ranks on.

To get the actual ranking, you need to track the "cd" parameter from the referrer string rather than the "start" parameter as is given in Yoast's example.

Google doesn't put the cd parameter in all their referrer strings, but it does it often enough to be moderately useful.

This method also shows you how your ranking for a keyword is variable rather than a fixed number.
Low pay is a pricing signal. A surplus of teachers and nurses are disregarding other kinds of work society is announcing a greater unmet need for, in favor of what they feel driven to do. While they are entitled to say "to hell with whatever society values most from me", I wouldn't call it noble.

It's also much easier to sell Chrome than, e.g. Firefox. My current browser of choice is Firefox 4, but whenever I'm setting up someone's computer, I give them Chrome.

If I gave them Firefox, they'll have the attitude of "I want the old one back!". For chrome however, they already use Google, so they're happy using "Google" to view other pages. And while I worry a little about Possibly accidentally creating a Google = the Internet opinion in them, transparent automatic updates prevent this having consequences like the IE = the Internet attitude others have.
The 2012 Geomagnetic Apocalypse, Fact not Fiction
"Over the long run we find things for people to do."

The problem with such a prediction is that we have so very little data to base it on.

if computers are to replace most of man's intellectual activities, that change compares to the industrial revolution , but it's not a very good comparison , because we will have machines and robots to replace physical labor.

It's basicly a prediction by an economist , and we all know how accurate are those.

"His lawyers say Wing, who was born in the United States, was targeted because of his extensive ties to asia — he travels there frequently, helps support two brothers who live in China, and his father was a well-known Asian-American community leader who died last year in China."

>> He doesn’t count calories or believe in extreme caloric restriction as a way to extend life.

Not only has caloric restriction been shown to work in mammals (including primates), but it has known mechanisms of action. That's some hefty evidence to ignore.

Well, at 87, it's a bit late to start calorie restriction, anyways.

Music Is Power
>Really, stop being a negative influence and try to see that talent is in large part offset by dedication and time put in. If you want to succeed at something, anything, that does not require some kind of genetic component then go and pursue it relentlessly and be excellent, or at least as good as you can do it, whatever it is.

I know this is an unpopular sentiment on this site, but the problem is that everything has at least some genetic component. In the extreme case, rats share about 95% of their DNA with humans but are incapable of doing any of our jobs or even living a decade. Even amongst humans, large differences exist: short people can never become NBA centers, 200cm people can never be great gymnasts, someone with Down's syndrome isn't going to make it as a physicist.

One heart breaking example I witnessed personally was a family member. He wanted more than anything to be a classical musician. From the age of four, he was taught by the same teacher who trained a very successful NY Philharmonic pianist (opera coach). He practiced many hours a day all through his school years and earned both undergraduate and graduate degrees in clarinet performance. By any objective measure he was a very good clarinetist. But he wasn't good enough to make a real living at it. Unlike his mother, who had perfect pitch by the end of grade school, he never developed it. He saw more than one talented peer surpass him in despite his extreme work ethic. In the end, after putting over 25 years of his life and his passion into it, he finally gave up on his dream and became a programmer. Unlike his experiences in music, he very quickly rose to the top of development groups and it was he who was the one surpassing others who had been working at it longer and harder.

Talent matters. There probably haven't been any specific genes linked with business ability as there have been with musical or leaping abilities, but it would be naive to assume that everyone can win if only they sacrifice enough. In many marginal cases, I'm sure effort would make the difference. In other cases, it would just be robbing oneself of valuable time that could be better spent on another pursuit.

Since you already know when I'm meeting with someone, I would love to be pinged shortly after the meeting and prompted to add some notes while it's still fresh in my mind. I'm not very good at taking notes during meetings, but would love to be able to record a short summary afterwards (with the recording being saved with metadata about which meeting it applies to - having this would have been invaluable to me in certain situations in the past)
The bicep isn't the primary muscle being used, but it isn't relaxed during the exercise either, and at a beginner to intermediate level, it simply isn't necessary to target the bicep specifically. That's what makes these compound exercises better than others; they involve lots of different muscles other than the primary ones.
I know of one incredibly talented potential female founder who applied with a killer idea and was rejected. I think it is very likely that YC has a strong bias towards men, which this data certainly supports.

I'm also not blaming YC for having a bias towards men. I think silicon valley in general has a bias towards men, and since YC is a for profit business they are making economically sound decisions. However, I think the situation sucks in general, and saying any fault lies with women is really unfair.

What I don't get is why he had to give it back. Since the FBI stuck it to his car isn't it his now? When they came to demand it back he should have refused. Are they going to arrest him for harboring stolen property? They gave it to him.
It's entirely possible. Most non-governing monarchies still have themselves inserted into a position of power and simply rubber stamp the actions of the governing bodies. In the UK the Queen (or future King) has the ability to Veto a piece of legislation. Similarly in Canada, Australia and New Zealand the Governor General holds the veto amongst the other reserve powers.

However, the Japanese Emperor has no 'reserve' powers. So its ability to take power may be more restricted, however there's always a good chance that they would be restored to power in the event of an uprising.
They've said in the past that the percentage of applicants who are women is the same as the percentage among accepted founders. Any bias therefore must happen at the self-selecting stage unless the female applicants are objectively better on average.

If you assume that the YC partners aren't biased (do you have any evidence otherwise?) this implies the self-selection isn't based on capability. (i.e. women seem equally confident to apply as men with the same abilities) Which pretty much just leaves us with the usual statistic of the percentage of women working in tech being low.
Tell HN: I've decided to give my software away for free
Hi HN,

About 6 weeks ago, I launched a new piece of social networking software named Kwolla. Kwolla lets you create your own social network platform. Sales were initially very good, but they've since dwindled.

I'm working on a much newer version of the software and also trying to find a way to monetize it. During that time, I've decided to at least give it away free so hopefully some people can get use out of it.

I plan on having a full post-mortem on my blog - http://blog.leftnode.com giving more information about future releases and the results of giving my software away free.

If you're interested, head on over to http://kwolla.com and download a copy.
I dont know but I'm sure many people click after reading your comment.
Not true. First of all, I wouldn't use Windows at all on a machine I depended on for security. The fact is my XP box has never had a bug on it. It's fully patched, services off, behind a nat, with firefox and noscript. Acl's can be improved but I've never bothered. I admit it takes a lot of upfront prep to get XP safe to use, but it can be done if one has the knowledge.

Who said I know anything about web development? Greybeard here that learned on the Vic-20.
What about side effects such as heap memory fragmentation?
Not the way you describe it, no. If my last 5 plays are "RPSRP", and my next play is scissors. but looking at these previous five plays, both P and S would be the best plays against this range (2 wins out of 5). However the correct next response predicting the pattern is R (which does the worst against this range with only 1 win in 5).

Edit: Ok re-reading your initial post I think I misunderstood you. However it still doesn't explain how it could pick up the pattern quick enough - there are 3 possible responses each time, so until it's tried all 3 responses it won't know which is best given the fingerprint. However it will pick up the pattern by the 2nd cycle.

I think it's using a more sophisticated learning strategy than you suggest.

The algorithm for "veteran" is really simplistic. It takes your last x throws, searches it's list of throw histories from other people, and determines what the most likely next throw is. I'm currently trying to duplicate this in one line of Ruby.
The only scalable thing for "Internet Services" I know is non-blocking I/O, and just one thread for every CPU physical thread (i.e. avoiding thread context switching).

Edit: After RTFM, is the purpose of the paper, simulating threads handling blocking I/O with a epoll and/or select. Great paper.
Neat. Does anyone know if there are data sets for games of rock paper scissors available, the kind the computer seems to be using? I would really like to play around with one.
The system is a two party stable oligarchy anyway.

We more or less publically fund parties in Europe. Why does the private sector, whether individuals or co-operating individuals have a right to fund/corrupt officials and influence policy? If hard money is wrong, soft money should be too. Making it an issue ad is a stupid, inconsistent loophole. Toby Ziegler's been through all this anyway.

It's simply not normal for corporations to give millions to parties and issue groups outside America. And the principle may be arguable, but the effects are clearly appalling.

on point 2, I'm not saying there should be enforced, pre-emptive speech control. But if the system were human instead of automated, someone could have pointed out to the domain owner that they'll probably have to seize it anyway if they use it for that purpose. Of course, I'm expecting far too much intelligence and concern for the customer from a dumb (ie efficient) system.

Our stats show that we write a supervisor or a server once in every 7.5 man-months of coding.

Yes, there is a small amount of 'boilerplate' in creating OTP structures, but you are not comparing like-with-like when you compare a Ruby Class to an OTP component.

If you compare a Ruby Class to an Erlang Module - (which is a much better comparison - our stats show 1 new module per man-month) then your boilerplate argument falls completely flat.
you say "Exactly zero of the 'raging Apple fanboys' that I know go around telling people that they are bad people because they don't use Apple products." Well then you obviously have never met a mac zealot. Every and I mean EVERY person I have ever met that has a mac or iphone constantly berates windows users and especially android users. I can only postulate that is due to their insecurity and general lack of social grace or the fact that they are complete idiots.

Curious what your hosting / reliability / scalability strategy is, if any at this point?

If my web site sign ups would rely on your service I'd be looking to be reassured about how robust it is going to be. Of course, after 20 hours it's amazing you have a front page, let alone a scalability plan so this is just a suggestion really rather than a question, but if you do have this designed in I'd be curious to hear it.

The payment provider, Minno, is our primary project--we put together TorrentTraveler mostly as a proof of concept for it. We built Minno with an emphasis on user experience and privacy.

Minno only receives information about the size of the download (1GB, 2GB, etc) so that it can charge accordingly. TorrentTraveler deletes all of of its records for each download after 24 hours.

If you have any other questions/comments about Minno, feel free to ping me at calvin [at] minno.co
Practically nobody does CR

Fair enough. I personally wouldn't even try CR - I don't have enough willpower to be slightly hungry for the rest of my life. I'm trying to incorporate some Intermittent Fasting in my life though, since it has some similar benefits.
This isn't universally true. Cyberlockers like rapidshare intentionally don't index or provide search for the files they store so they can claim they don't actually know what users are storing on their service (until they receive a DMCA takedown notice). Also what about tor where the nodes are intentionally blind to the end points of the routed packet?

It's a free rider issue. Your ability to acquire software for free raises the price of that software for those that do pay. It's the same reason why taxes are not voluntary, because eventually the system would devolve into nobody paying, with the last few payers being considered "suckers".

As the ability to acquire the software for free increases for average consumers, the more expensive the software will become, with the singularity being that there's one copy, the original, for sale for thousands or millions of dollars. The cost of developing software must always be amortized across all future sales. It's disingenuous to imply that once the software is made, there are no further costs to the developer. The developer's costs are opportunity costs where he/she could be doing something else instead of writing the software. Remove their ability to recoup their initial investment in the software, and you simply won't have anyone writing commercial software anymore. Developers must have some assurance that their ability to capture income from the software is still intact, or they won't bother. Given that many open source projects are actually funded by commercial hardware/software companies, this would also be detrimental to all software development.
I am not sure we can treat an abstract notion like "exclusivity" as property.

If we do, what if someone has exclusive knowledge of some algorithm, and then someone else discovers it too? Is he a thief?
