What concerns me (and I would appreciate comments from people who may know) is that I might be buying something with a great deal more than $100 in liabilities for cleanup or something. There's no fun in buying ten houses for $100 each if in five years you incurs thousands of dollars of obligations each to bring them up to some code or become liable because someone trespassed and died there or something. Even for a house in Detroit this is ringing my "too good to be true" bells; if it were just a fun thing to buy and see increase in value I gotta think it wouldn't have been that cheap in the first place.

Anyway, even worse, back in the IE 5.x era when they added most of that stuff like XMLHTTPRequest etc., they focused on that instead of complying with even basic CSS1! (Yes, it was better than Netscape 4, but that was because the JSSS/CSS fiasco that resulted in was a lot worse) IE6 added DOCTYPE switching and a "standards" mode with better CSS1 compliance, but I don't think they touched the buggy CSS2 support, and during the time they sat on it, guess what people did with it that caused trouble when MS released IE7 that fixed some of these bugs?
You don't think these tip are that great for you. But they're not written for Unix command-line ninjas. They're written for average users (like me) who run Ubuntu or some other flavor of Linux and just use the basic commands. I bookmarked the tips and will definitely be revisiting them regularly to improve my command line fu.

Sorry you didn't get anything out of it, but I suspect you don't need tips like "learn vim" and "be familiar with chown".

Is software physical? The computer certainly is, but what is the software?

I'd have to say dualist with reservations. Certainly the mind can't exist without the brain, but the brain is a constantly refreshing and changing thing. Eventually every cell I'm made up of will be a different cell than before...

It seems like a lot of interesting things in reality in that the closer you look, the harder it is to say anything with certainty.

I voted for physicalism, but I don't really like this framing. I wouldn't say that, say, the Y combinator is a physical object. But I do think it's possible to implement it in hardware (or in software running on hardware). Likewise, our minds are implemented in hardware, but to say they are hardware feels slightly awkward.

Of course, I don't mean to justify dualism, which is kind of a mysterious answer to a mysterious question [1].

We’ve wanted to the decision to tip to be an active one, but low-barrier. Basically as close to bookmarking a link a possible, or like tweeting a link to share it. Automatic tipping would be difficult to balance things correctly. For example a funny YouTube video I may want to tip 25¢, but an open source project on GitHub I might want to tip $5.

All user accounts have Tip Streams that are a feed of the Tips that user has funded (you can make tips before you put money into your account). But, we have an option to make your account anonymous, removing all personal-identifiable information from your Tip Stream page.
I'm on the fence about paying for the NYTimes once the paywall pops up. I'd rather not use two lines of CSS to get around it, just like I have made the decision not to use an AdBlocker.

While the NYTimes pay model would work for me (I'd access via a PC or smartphone.) I think their pay model is clunky. Why does someone who wants to access the site via their iPad have to pay more than someone accessing the same content from a smart phone? The Kindle subscription is left out from this paywall so those users wouldn't be able to access the site with that subscription. The full access unlimited digital subscription is $35 a month. That same user can sign up for the weekend only home delivery for around ~$12 a month and get the full access digital subscription with it.

For such a large, risky undertaking, I don't think it is thought out well at all.
I have always viewed the mind, which extends through the CNS to fingers & toes, as a platform for cognition & memory. It is very likely that actual information is contained, processed and stored in the temporary geometric constructs created when multiple synapses fire. Think "fabric storage." So in that model, the "mind" is both.

If you're trying to evaluate based on how useful it is, how cool, potential income etc you're missing the point.

The goal is to flip this to the next sucker. A cool domain name, a celeb team, an app that's bound to attract media hype (look for "The Color.com Revolution" coming from Tehran University in 2012) - a year or two from now, provided the bubble doesn't burst, Sequoia can unload this on Google or Facebook and make a tidy profit.

I totally agree. This wasn't an exercise is getting around the business model but rather a quick tutorial so show how laughable (or possible by design) their hiding of articles was. If they really wanted to hide the content, they could easily check for the cookie on the server side rather than doing on the client side.
I understand your reasoning, but I don't think you took it far enough. If something can be implemented in hardware, than it is hardware. If your mind could exist as a machine than I could print out schematics with every switch/gate/electron position set so your mind could be rebuilt elsewhere.

YCombinator is physical because a mapping of the ram, physical storage, and CPU state would be enough to reproduce this site. Nothing about this website exists beyond our understanding of physics.

Functionalism is very similar to physicalism. An interesting corollary to functionalism is that mental states are "said to be realized on multiple levels." In other words, computers and other systems could have the same sense sense of identity as humans.

From Wikipedia's article on Functionalism:

"Since mental states are identified by a functional role, they are said to be realized on multiple levels; in other words, they are able to be manifested in various systems, even perhaps computers, so long as the system performs the appropriate functions. While computers are physical devices with electronic substrate that perform computations on inputs to give outputs, so brains are physical devices with neural substrate that perform computations on inputs which produce behaviors."

Just something interesting to think about...

Nothing about this website exists beyond our understanding of physics.

Reputation, membership, sense of community -- none of that could be automatically replicated by replicating the "site" and all of those things play a big role in making it what it is, giving it the value it has, causing it to function the way it does.

I believe in reincarnation, so I believe our minds are separate from our bodies and go on after our bodies cease to function. I mean, what is "life" anyway? What causes a physical construct to be a living, breathing entity one second and dead the next?

Life. Magic. Pretty much the same, I think.

The underlying technology sounds like it was inspired by The Dark Knight - sensors in cell phones streaming data back to a central server where it can all be processed together into a cohesive view of what's going on in the world.

The photo-sharing aspect just sounds like a hook to get consumers to actually put it on their phones. I'd imagine that the bigger play is trying understanding where people go, who they go there with, when they go, all of that. Facebook has the data to reconstruct that information after the fact, when people come home and upload their pictures, but this looks like an attempt to see it unfold in real time.

Advertisers are already getting used to having this kind of information on the web, with tracking cookies, twitter, and real-time ad auctions giving them immediate, constant feedback from and control over people's online experience. The company that figures out how to get a similar datastream out of and targeted advertisements into meatspace is going to make mad money; if these guys have a legitimate shot at doing it, $41M probably isn't so crazy.

On the other hand, just downloaded the app, and the first cut is kind of crap.
What to offer my first salesperson?
I’m a single-founder startup producing specialized risk software for financial institutions. The company is based outside the US but that’s where a large part of the potential market lies, so I’m looking at engaging with a US-based sales-person whom I already know and has in-depth knowledge of the market (and a lot of contacts). The software solves a major industry problem at a fraction of the cost and business risk of existing solutions.
Question: What’s an appropriate package to offer the salesperson? I’m willing to consider part-time working, a salary/vested equity mix, percentage of royalties, and so on. Most potential clients are on the east or west coasts, so there’d be a fair amount of travel costs to factor in as well.
Oplocks are an optimization I'm not in much need of; 100MB/sec transfers do just fine. That sharemode locking is by and large ignored I consider an advantage of Samba, as in my personal environment, I do not care if some program wants to exclude readers or writers, I prefer to make those choices. I don't have any applications that treat files on a file share as a multi-user database like the era of Paradox etc.; those days are long gone.

I think ACLs are a bug, not a feature. They are too complex to administer both correctly and efficiently; a capability-oriented approach would be better, but that's fantasy, alas. Again, POSIX permission bits do just fine for my use cases.

Reliable FCNs would be nice though.

Gordon H. Clark:

"If [...] a thought is a physical or chemical motion inside the brain, it can be illustrated by a pitched ball in Yankee Stadium. The stadium represents the brain or body; the pitched ball is the thought. Suppose the first pitch of the game is an inside curve. Now, since the pitch is a dated event, it cannot have happened previously to this game, nor can it be repeated in a later inning. Of course, a pitch in the third inning may also be an inside curve; but it cannot be identical to the first. The inside curve in the third inning comes fifteen minutes later; its speed is not precisely the same; and it breaks about a half-inch higher. That means that I can never have the same thought twice. If I think thought X at 2:21 P.M., I cannot have that thought again at 3:12 or ever after. Behaviorism makes memory impossible.

The most obvious answer to this is that these two pitches resemble each other so closely that one cannot tell the difference between them. Hence, though we can never have the exact same thought, we can nonetheless have a similar thought. But this reply complicates the situation. The thought that the curve in the third inning is similar to the curve in the first inning has to be a newly pitched ball (e.g. the knuckle ball in the fourth inning). Similarity is itself a chemical motion inside the brain. It is as much a dated pitch as the other two. It came five or ten minutes after the pitch in the third inning. How then can a chemical motion ten minutes after the second curve connect two motions that no longer exist? Behaviorism therefore cannot discover that any two chemical motion are similar.

There is a further complication. It is all the more obvious that none of these pitches, nor any other in the Yankee Stadium, can be the motion of a different ball in San Diego. The San Diego diamond is a different mind. Two minds can never have the same pitch. That is why no one else can have the least idea of what Skinner and Ryle mean. Nor can they themselves have any idea of what they wrote, now that the inning is over."
Heh. I believe the VC-approved word for this is 'solomo'.

How about, yes and no. Is information processing physical or a property of a physical mechanism performing a function. The question, in my opinion, is akin to asking "Is my web browser physical or not?" It runs on a physical medium and is a consequence of physical matter and laws...so again, yes and no.
Windows Phone 7 Update Schedule: Find out when your phone will be updated
The mind is a process loosely defined by functional behaviors such as communicating, reasoning, and feeling. It arises from and is nothing more than the state of a sufficiently complex physical system and as such can be said to be physical. However it is important to recognize that systems may not be "physical" in the sense that electrons are physical. :)
Mencken said it better: "The trouble with fighting for human freedom is that one spends most of one's time defending scoundrels. For it is against scoundrels that oppressive laws are first aimed, and oppression must be stopped at the beginning if it is to be stopped at all."

> We’ve wanted to the decision to tip to be an active one, but low-barrier.

I'm generally of the opinion, though it is only a hunch, that any scheme requiring a user to actively tip for each site they like is doomed to fail.

I also think that the other problem with tip jar and/or Xanadu-style micropayment schemes is that people are uneasy about building up a surprising total. This is the advantage of Readability/Kachingle-style subscription services.

It's important, but only because the idea that you can have an exclusively mobile content sharing product is not realistic (right now). There's an expectation among users that they should be able to access the service from whichever screen they are using at that moment.

Ironically in Color's case, they don't even ask you to login, so there's really no way to do that. Therefore, the $350K has gone towards a really expensive splash page.
Personally I think its all about execution, and yes if someone can execute well. Canonical comes to mind. There is a significant barrier to entry in terms of the 'scale' of the product though. MySql made sense, sendmail less so.
true, but that's how we've always done it where I work.

We use chroot to support multiple web apps with their own ip/domain on a single box. real simple to just add a new /etc/sysconfig/network-script/ifcfg-eth#:# with the proper network config. We can then ifup and ifdown them as necessary, they come up on boot if the config is set...

Just always made sense :)

I think movie flops are much more uncommon than failed companies though. Maybe this investment represents a very uncommon level of certainty in the company's success. It could also just be a bad investment, there is always a range.

It still isn't clear to me that if there was a sudden readjustment of these overvalued companies how many companies would really be effected and what it would mean for the sector as a whole. I don't think its defining the whole sector the way it did in 2000. It might mean bad things for VCs in general, but maybe this is the economy working VCs out of the system.
Just saying, adwords is 100% useless without the other google stuff to run it on. This is important, and certainly makes the "actual per employee" profit much, much more difficult to calculate.
"It costs money to hire quality journalists and send them around the world to report on the news."

Investigative journalism is probably around 2% of their budget. Paying the New York Times to support journalism is like eating every meal at Burger King because they donate 1/10th of a cent from each hamburger to Japan.

If you want to donate money somewhere, give it to Salon.com or NPR.

'Say you walk into a restaurant with twenty people in it. You sit down at a table with four friends, and start chatting. Then one of your friends pulls out their phone, fires up Color, and takes a snapshot of you and your buddies.

That photo is now public to anyone within around 100 feet of the place it was taken. So if anyone else in the restaurant fires up Color, they’ll see the photograph listed in a stream alongside other photos that have recently been taken in the vicinity.'

Correct me if I'm wrong, but when it comes to photo sharing, aren't the people in your immediate vicinity at the time you take a photo the people who are going to be the least interested in getting that photo shared to them?
Unless you happen to be religious, this would seem to be more of a problem of word usage than a question about reality.

It's not entirely obvious how to classify things that exist only as representations imposed on a different medium. Others have already pointed out that you have the same problem with software. You could construct quite a number of such confusing cases -- for example, is a spoken word a physical thing? What about a football game? How about the stock market? The issue here with these sorts of things is that meaning is attached to the state of some physical matter, but the meaning is not an inherent part of the matter itself -- at least as we'd usually classify it.

I think probably the best thing to do with something like this is just to acknowledge it as a semantics issue and move on; I don't think you'll get much more insight into the subject of interest (thought, software, language, football, stocks, or whatever...) by worrying too much about its classification status as "physical" or not -- unless you're actually studying it for the point of studying the meta-issue of "problems relating to the attachment of meaning to physical things".

I'm torn on this issue. Socioeconomic class is of towering importance, and has been neglected in favor of pure race for far too long; but racism is very real, and remains a potent force worldwide. It is counter-productive, I think, to look through either lens exclusively.
