You need a lot of energy (cynicism? doublethink?) to be able to see such a pointless exercise as an opportunity for training. It might be the optimal thing to do, but it is quite hard to ignore that part of your brain which tells you to avoid useless stuff.

Besides, not all crappy tasks can be bent like this. Sometimes, there is just no way to disguise it as an interesting challenge.
Everything I need to know about entrepreneurship, I learned in college
Try to get -- or to hold -- such insurance with an older workforce, especially once someone is or has been seriously ill.

I'm not in that position, but a relative is -- minus the illness part, as far as i know. I think their rates went up over 20% last year. Although they are not a tech start up; rather, medical, and already established for some years.

My real concern is that people in the U.S. are, these days, paying "life" rates for what is essentially "term" insurance. Take an all too typical contemporary example. Someone has held one or several jobs that included health care insurance from the time they graduated, say two decades ago. During that time, they may well have paid significantly more in insurance premiums than they received in care -- as a statistical average, their demographic certainly did. (I don't care whether they employer paid some or all of the premiums; call it an indirect wage, if you will.)

Now entering the latter half of their forties, and at higher risk, they are sh-tcanned by their (latest) employer and face extended unemployment or a job that doesn't offer health care benefits.

If they were still in employer provided coverage, they'd still being paying in their X per employee per year (simplifying away the differences between diferent employer-provided plans). It might be time for the system to, on average, pay back some portion of all those accumulated premiums. Sort of a "whole life" insurance policy, from a health insurance perspective.

Instead, the "accrued benefit" (I know this is a crude analogy) has fled along with the job.

Aside from arguments about innovation and economic growth, the current health care insurance model in the U.S. is simply not coherent nor predictable with regard to providing coverage. For many, a third party -- one increasingly having wildly diverging interests -- is in control of their coverage.

Many people would be happy to pay into a pool at the kind of pricing the major employers receive. But as independents, they don't have that option.
I would qualify it like so: that government-scale problems still need government-scale employment. But they need relatively less of it now. As with a lot of things in technology the change is mostly creeping in from the bottom, turning large spaces into cheap/easy one-person problems.
IIRC, if you're really interested in that, you can munge up a bridge w/ Asterisk. Not sure if anyone's SAASing it anymore, though.

I'm not saying that acolytes of YC do not deserve to be there. I'm just building on to the previous commenter's points about the creation of new Silicon Valley in-crowd communities. Now, I think this whole point is debatable- certainly incubated or otherwise guided (like YC alumni) startups are a minority of startups. And unoriginal, make-a-quick-buck startups can come from anywhere. I just think that maybe there is a point to be made that the road of startups is getting more and more structured and unofficially regimented, whether it is through an incubator, or just by a culture that promotes certain patterns to success. And with the guidance of groups such as YC or incubators, it's made more and more easy. But then perhaps that is about as valid a point as complaining that Stack Overflow (not to mention Google!) makes it quicker to solve programming problems these days, or that memory managed languages make developers lazy, or that not walking to school in 8-foot snow distorts the soul, and so on.

How does "Combined with the power of local carrier monopolies, it's exactly the reason we need net neutrality." not qualify as explanation/original thought?
1) It's cliché.

2) It's confusing to non-native speakers.

3) It's confusing to native speakers, too.

4) Baseball has nothing to do with the subject at hand.

5) It reeks of inaccurate, droning marketing-speak.

6) It cheapens the industry to resort of sports-derived metaphors.

How US-ians will find Spotify different
The blog in question is fledgling (~ 6 months old). It has little traffic, but is growing quickly. The industry is wildlife management. None of the business owners I spoke with even asked about traffic. They aren't (usually) technically sophisticated.

They typically do have websites and they sell breeder stock wildlife online through different channels. Link backs and online PR can really benefit them and they recognize that.

The business requires acreage, starter animals with recognized genetics/pedigree, and a lot of dirty work.
Newegg?
haha I tried that yesterday....my boss asked me to come up with documentation for some objective C code....in three days I not only documented two classes but also used a tool called appledoc for autogenerating documentation for all the classes....in fact I wrote a script that I added as an xcode target that when run not only autogenerates documentation but also uploads it on a central server.

RESULT...I got severly REBUKED for not creating a word document and emailing it to him...in fact he threatened me about escalating my disobedience to senior management
What you need:

-a vision (MUST)

-a community of like-minded people who you can work with and be inspired with (MUST). You need people like these to figure out how to achieve your vision.

From where I stand, you best bet seems to be to offer a product that incorporates what you are trying to do and charge huge amounts of money from it (huge amounts of money because corporations don't trust anything that is cheap)

How does noun 'scale' imply climbing?

How does "swing for the fences" not imply baseball?
A better model would be something like what the Real-World Haskell book used when it was under development: allow comments (anonymous or otherwise) on each paragraph, and refine the content based on those comments. Of course, this does have the twin problems that it doesn't keep results private, and makes credit assignment a real pain :)

Even with all the problems it has, I actually prefer peer-review right now. Some of the stuff that gets self-published on arXiv is of sketchy quality, and there's just no quick way of figuring that out by just reading the abstract if a 'known' person hasn't co-authored it.
By "big" I mean problems that require many distinct, intelligent decisions. These problems always has and always will require very large groups of people working cooperatively. For example, the Apollo program at it's peak employed 34,000 NASA employees and 375,000 contractors [1]. This is really a point of semantics though, not really worth debating.

Agreed. This advice is only for when you are trapped. It is not good to put your effort toward a pointless goal.
It uses webkit tags because they aren't standardized yet (or implemented in standard form).

This slidedeck is intended as a supplement to the html5rocks demos. Html5rocks has stable HTML5 code, whereas this one has a lot of experimental stuff that isn't quite ready for real use yet.
Another opinion (mine) is that DEVONthink is a legacy single-user clunker that is inferior to Evernote in every way that matters--stability, speed, and ease of use. And woah, it can sync across machines!

Putting a DEVONThink DB on Dropbox does not work[1]. It corrupts the DB contents.

(Totally agree about the ScanSnap, though.)

Closure has it's own Javascript compiler (that does some type checking and minimisation). It's likely that is what you are thinking of - you'd hardly be the first.
Below is the post I left on the thread in the link. This exact situation happened to me too. Root cause was the person who installed my OS set the root password to "g0grid". Bulletproof.

----------------------

This exact same thing happened to me! I have a crappy little single box with them and I have been reasonably happy with their service (I was originally with servepath before they got bought by GoGrid). I requested a 64-bit upgrade, which they did promptly. I was contacted by customer service to tell me the upgrade was complete and to tell me how to log in, but I had already gone to bed. The customer service rep left a VM message saying "check your customer portal account for instructions on how to log in." The next morning before I leave for work, I'm just about to log in to my fresh box when I get a call from GoGrid saying my server has been compromised, offering to let me pay for a fresh install, or I can lock it down myself immediately. I'm no security expert, but I damn well wasn't going to pay for a reinstall on a box I never logged in to. I finally managed to get them to do the reinstall for free because they had to admit the password that the customer service rep had picked after the reinstall wasn't so hot: "g0grid". Nice job, guys.
The only thing to be careful of here is that even though it is a sign of intelligence that you choose not to put forth effort toward a fruitless goal, your boss or another outsider may not view it this way. They may think you're lazy, for example.
This is exactly the kind of misinformation campaign that the real hacker would be waging! Blame the victim! I suspect it was ianhawes doing the hacking.

How To Do Wedding Photography
Wedding photography is not an easy task and one should learn and master the skills before taking it up as a profession. Photography does not involve using the camera and capturing images. It needs one who has an eye for detail and is very keen on detail and delivers good photos which will be used as reference material. The photographer should also be fast so as to get all the important activities.

Hanlon's Razor (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hanlon%27s_razor)

I really doubt 37Signals took their manifesto down for nefarious reasons. Changing architecture, codebase rewrites, SCM tool, etc, all could have caused that page to be removed.
So what's the word on continuity after being acquired by Google? The frickin site is down and no news on if or when it'll be up again.
This all sounds good in theory, I wonder though it someone who is pretty key to what they are doing had an offer from a competitor they would stick rigidly to what they say here or would be willing to make exceptions.
I can see both sides of the argument.

1) What the Wright brothers worked on meant that humans could fly for the first time ever. What Alexander Graham Bell worked on meant that humans could talk to each other over large distances for the first time ever. What the early PC/Mac pioneers worked on meant that huge computing power was put in the hands of the average person for the first time ever. These were history changers

I think many would agree that working on a project similar to one of the above is on a very different level, and much more satisfying, than working in a startup that is producing yet another photo sharing app.

What the author of the article may be lamenting is that so many bright minds are being "wasted" on yet another Groupon clone where no technical breakthroughs are being made, and not on useful projects where technical breakthroughs are needed, like renewable energy, natural language processing, etc. Whoever solves these problems will enable something that was not possible before and have an impact on the course of humanity.

2) On the other hand, there is nothing wrong with wanting to make money, and wanting to make it in the most easy way possible. If so many other professions can make a lot of money without really benefiting humanity, why shouldn't engineers feel free to exploit the recent gold rush in their field and make as much money as possible, with little regard to how useful their product is to the world at large?
Cool stuff: New Relic Tool Bar, made possible in part by our updated API.
I'll throw my hat in here too.

Too many startups are pitching the most derivative ideas in a thoroughly half-baked manner. Seriously, how many different aspects do we need to force the whole social concept into? And it always surprises me how many launch with a hand-wavy business model of "visitors...ads...profit!"
The padding for AES cipher suites isn't a significant performance issue. The per-record IV in TLS 1.1 and later, the overhead of the tls-cbc.txt workaround for earlier versions, and/or the extra block(s) of encryption required for HMAC-SHA-2-based cipher suites are bigger performance issues.

RC4 is faster than AES on older processors. On the current generation of Intel server processors, AES is faster because of AES-NI.

AES-GCM cipher suites should be even faster yet on those processors, but they are not widely implemented. Also, I wouldn't be surprised to see more interesting papers being published about weaknesses in the GMAC function in the near future. (Note: I don't have any knowledge of upcoming papers; I am guessing there will be some based on the recent paper regarding the discovery of unexpected weak keys in GMAC.) Nonetheless, I suspect that NSS will implement them because they are part of the NSA Suite B profile for TLS and some NSS developers want a complete implementation of that.
If you think you could create full-featured native apps for five different platforms plus the web UI and a synchronzing backend that can support millions of users in three weeks, I have a hunch you are overestimating your abilities.
Google Says "Let a Trillion Subdomains Bloom"
I worked with a coequal person who often bugged me as I spend less time in the office than he did.

I guess he saw me as a colleague who didn't pull his weight. But I was more productive than him. I got my stuff done and left, whereas he needed much longer for his tasks.

This caused a lot of frustration for me and him, as we both felt we were treated unfairly. I thought a lot about our problem and came to the following conclusion: This was a trust issue, as most things are. He simply did not trust me to complete my tasks on time and wanted to monitor my progress almost to the point of obsession.

I told him that trust was the foundation of our relationship, and that if he couldn't trust me enough to complete my tasks on time, I would not continue working with him.

In my opinion, stress between colleagues about getting work done should never be an issue in a healthy company. People need to be able to trust each other that they work in the interest of the company. Before a lazy employee can affect the whole team, the employer should have handled the situation.
They're likely reviewing and QAing it and then going to integrate some form of it into Google Products/Google Shopper.

That's like saying "Dropbox is just a glorified folder."

It's true enough, but that doesn't mean that your underlying premise is valid.
Why are creative Lego sets a minority?

I think you can draw an analogy with wikipedia. Most people just read, and don't contribute. But what makes wikipedia what it is, is the ability of others to put their ideas into it. So we have the _potential_ to create and customize, and a minority of people taking full advantage of that, but the end result is interesting to many more people than contributors. Similarly, I'm guessing most Lego sets are bought _because_ of the appeal of Lego's pre-baked designs -- along with the potential to customize. Users want more power and potential than they actually use, and some power users make the community more involved, and aware of the potential.

Or at least that's my guess as to Lego marketing's thoughts. As a kid, I definitely preferred to make my own things. I'd be curious to know if that's the standard use case for most kids today or not (making their own vs just following the instructions).
I think you're reading my argument as something it's not. I'm not saying that the current model is in any way bucking market forces, quite the opposite. I'm saying that the current model of entrepreneurship seems to be focussed more on a quick ROI/liquidity event rather than innovation or business-building. That in itself is not bad. My complaint, which I think the author is hinting at as well, is that this model of startup is far more "credit swap" than "mom and pop". It is, as she said, a commoditization of entrepreneurship.

YC, while invaluable for founders, is also an investment vessel factory, and the economic model it embodies shares much more in common with the kinds of financial products we see from Wall Street than traditional venture capitalism. Yuri Milner's offer of $100k to each YC graduate embodies this. It's a scattergun approach that, while likely profitable, incentivizes flipping over innovating.
There's no need to become a hacker for porn in China. Mostly people learn about hacking for flying over the great fire wall, for youtube/facebook/twitter etc.

The crackers forming is another story. Pirated Windows XP is everywhere, along with Internet Explorer 6 (what a surprise). That makes cracking easy, and so called safe guard softwares like 360 popular.
I'm just curious about what happened. Totally agree that it could have been some weird mistake.

How Tech Helped Mumbai Blast Victims Get to Safety
Finally we can stop pretending that itunes helps the music industry
While I have nothing against sports metaphors myself, one drawback that I can see is that people unfamiliar with the particular sport might not be able to understand them. Indeed, I'll admit that I'm completely ignorant of baseball and do not know what "swinging for the fences" means. In fact, I only know that this was a baseball reference because of another comment.
I was under the impression that RC4-MD5 was no longer recommended but RC4-SHA was okay (comparatively). Is this incorrect?

> For some people, 250GB/month is unreasonable.

If 250GB/month is unreasonable, then those people should not be signing up for a 250GB/month service plan. There's nothing stopping him from getting a business plan, for example, with a larger cap or no cap at all. It's not reasonable for this user to expect to dictate both the bandwidth limits _and_ the low price point. Even if we stipulate that internet access is a human right, I don't think it's reasonable to assert that everybody is entitled to unlimited bandwidth to the internet, at somebody else's expense.

> How do my internet habits interfere with your internet habits?

As far as I know, at some point this guy's connection is going through a shared resource, whether that is a switch or router or hub or whatever. Those gadgets only have so much bandwidth available, which is shared amongst all the connections going through it. Sure, most of the time the limit of that hardware vastly exceeds the demands of those connections, but there _is_ a limit, and it is possible (albeit, perhaps, unlikely) that one guy, uploading _terabytes_ of data, could impede his neighbor's ability to enjoy the internet.
