A better analogy would be: you think porting the Linux kernel to a PDP-11 would be a smashing idea (for the PDP-11 enthusiasts out there). So you painstakingly obtain permission from Linus, etc. and get the kernel ported to the PDP-11 architecture. You put the release on a CD, and use a hand-drawn rendition of RedHat's CD cover as your cover (without asking RedHat).

Then RedHat turns around and sues you for violating their copyright.
The point was: Get over the inertia and do something about the idea (finding and importing solar powered a/c's). "Pretty dick"? I guess it might be perceived like that. Wasn't intended though, hence the :-)

Think about the implications though. Think about how many otherwise good books haven't been written because authors couldn't spare the time due to their jobs. Think about how many prospective authors haven't written their first books because they didn't have the time and/or didn't think it would make a significant amount of money.
While "cold calls" with strangers sometimes do work out, I've found one way to form productive mentoring relationships is to start with people you have some connection to - that could include teachers (e.g., if there is one, the comp sci teacher at your high school), people from your high school who went down the entrepreneurship track, etc. Even if you didn't know them, it's much easier to build on some common ground / experience than start from scratch - they'll also be more likely to respond to any call or emails you drop them. You might not find the perfect person / people at first, but it's a start and having at least someone who's somewhat on the same page as you to bounce ideas off and get advice from is better than nothing.

I don't know what resources you have to "discover" these people (as an example, you could search for your high school with some technology-oriented key words on LinkedIn), but you can get creative on that.

Hopefully, as both your network and your needs develop, you can "level up" to the people who can actually provide the support you need.

That approach you describe to building an SVG tree is a common performance optimization when manipulating the DOM for HTML as well. I'd be curious to hear if you've tried a) using a DocumentFragment, b) detaching the node using removeNode, manipulating, then adding it back, and c) simply working with a node (createNode) and then adding it in after manipulations are done. The basic idea is that working with the live DOM is slow, while working with detached nodes is fast. Note that I haven't really tried this stuff out that much. Maybe I'll work up a little benchmark over the weekend or something.

I would say I am a huge movie buff / goer in comparison to my friends, but even I don't think I could justify $50/month for this service. Can I opt in/out of this per month based on what I see coming up on imdb.com? There would be very few months where there are enough movies I would like enough to go see 5 movies (say $10/movie * 5 movies a month) which would warrant me going to see in a theater.

Even since AMC even dropped weekly prices to $5 or $7.50 a movie during the week, I have been going more than I ever have before, but I don't see this taking off at all. $50 is just too much of a flat fee.

IMO I don't think you can compare this to gyms, as you can't wait an extra month or two and pirate your local gym equipment in HD x264, like most people do with movies who don't want to spend the money, unfortunately.

The only way this would be viable is if they could stream movies which are currently out to people in their houses at the exact same time in HD to their homes. People do not want to leave their house, or work out their schedule now days to go to the movie unless it is really worth it. There are not enough movies coming out per month worth leaving the house for a flat fee of $50/month.

Ask HN: List of generic services required by most websites
I am trying to compile a list of the generic services which are required by most of the websites but are not included as part of the most common frameworks. Some the examples that I came up with are -

- Website Analytics

- Logs Processing

- Business Intelligence

- Extracting data from third parties

- Exposing data to third parties

- Security alerts

- Website error alerts

- Comments system for getting user feedback

Please let me know what you have come across as essential services that you think is a must for website but was not readily or freely available.

So basically, as a customer, you'd have to assume you're going to 4-7 movies per month to break even on this (depending on how much movies cost in your area - $6.50 matinees or $13+ a ticket in Manhattan).

A bunch of mid-2000s polls suggest the average American goes to 4-6 movies per YEAR - probably has come down a bit given structural trends. Not sure what the distribution looks like, but I'd guess it's a pretty thin tail of people who go more than 4-6 times per month.

So either they're hoping people think they go a lot more often than they really do, or are giving a great deal to a small portion of the population.

Pricing seems quite a bit off for this to be attractive to 95% of the populace (though given theaters need to pay a cut for each body that comes in to the distributor, they probably wanted to be on the conservative side)... maybe should have done something like $25-30/month, and hope the users buy enough concessions to make up the difference. Or do the $50, but throw in a free massive bucket of popcorn for every trip, which costs virtually nothing to the theater anyway (and presumably, the customer's usually going to want to buy a drink, which is basically 95% profit).
Calling this the "Netflix Model" seems naive. When Netflix initially launched, there were two major drawing points.

1) Access to a large library/inventory. Traditional rentals were limited to mainstream/popular film and newly released films required luck to rent. Netflix made cult films easily accessible (Eraserhead, Cannibal, etc.).

2) Price savings in comparison to traditional Brick-and-Mortar Rentals. Netflix Subscription fees were equitable to two movie rentals a month. Two movie rentals a month seems like a number not outside the norm.

The service they discuss would require seeing approximately 5 movies a month just to equal the subscription fee. That is a large number.

Secondly, they aren't giving access to any more product. Just the same movies that weren't worth watching before. With the exception of oscar season I think watching five newly released movies a month would be more of a punishment.

Their shameless promo integration (pre-selling DVDS, "early access to trailers", merchandise sales) only serves to further devalue the user experience making $50 seem far too high.

As a final note, I do believe the pricing structure/experience of theaters should be re-examined and this is a start. Personally, subscription concessions could be a cool place to start. I would really consider paying $30 a month for 5 large popcorns and drinks (and that would still leave a huge margin).

Google's silent experiment .. What do you love ?
Since everyone should hopefully know /etc/cron* is a nonstandard cron directory, and an addon from Debian, it would be hopeful that you would also have discovered the relevant documentation as why this is, ie run-parts(8), like mentioned.

The manpage states you can pass --test <dir> and it will show you all the scripts it would have run. This should have been something done before any assumption was made as to this working off the bat.

On my systems now, or old Solaris machines I used to admin, I would always do an "at now <script>" to make sure there were not any $PATH issues before putting the script in production. I've always tested to make sure the generic skeleton of the script would work before assuming anything...
was it worth it?

I think AMC's doing something along these lines, where people with their loyalty card get deals on concessions. They probably throw in a free ticket after several visits. I think I remember hearing some doing packages (e.g., tickets + popcorn and drinks).

Startup Quote: David Heinemeier Hansson, partner, 37signals
It seems to me that the real winners in such deals are the investors. They put some money into this company, those dudes work extremely hard for a year, while the investors chillax, then they sell off. The investors make a nice chunk of change, while these dudes transfer to another company where they will continue to work extremely hard for another year or more.

To me, 'startups' are not really companies. They are vehicles for speculative activity by a certain class of people. All those drones being encouraged into spending so much time working in these companies so that investors will make money could also work on creating real businesses that they own and that will make them real money.
There’s nothing that will bring realism into your world as quickly as realizing that you’re out of cash.

It's a lot better than a netbook, something short of a full laptop like an MBP. The SSD makes a big difference; the main shortcoming of my CR-48 was the poor GPU integration. I think it is priced at bit high, though. The problem of the Chromebooks is that the market for them is being cannibalized by tablet devices, not least the Android ones, several of which are excellent. The Asus Eee pad comes with a rather nifty dock that provides the usual keyboard+hub functionality and has extra battery built in as well.

a more general problem that no reviewer seems to have commented on: netbooks where you browse the internet most of the time derive little from their horizontal aspect ratio, because so many web designers insist on formatting for 800-pixel widths or the like, so that your netbook has 30-40% of the screen devoted to whitespace. A vertical format is considerably more useful for anything except spreadsheet work.

OK, that is clearer.

I guess we could call the revised argument the "cavalier attitude to refutation". I don't agree about the "much wider universe": Kripke semantics draws a line around what is possible, and tells us that intuitionistic structures can be embedded in families of partial classical structures that evolve towards (but need not reach) a classical structure. Structures inconsistent with this view can be intuitionistically refuted.
