No, SS can be paid without affecting the debt ceiling.

"By law the Treasury is bound to redeem any bonds presented to it by the Social Security Administration. And when the Treasury does, total government debt subject to the debt limit falls by the amount of the redemption—thus freeing up the Treasury's ability to issue new bonds equal in amount to the redeemed Trust Fund bonds."

Tips on how to load the bazooka?

It's near impossible getting the SF DA on the phone. My call to NYPD put me in touch with an investigator who insisted I just got conned in one of those work from home schemes. One contact at SF DA told me I should contact NYPD and they'd turn it over to SF. So I guess I should try walking into my local police station with all the documents?
That's probably as much to do with different parts of the industry's expectations/requirements when it comes to on-site or off-site work.
Some cities in America have traffic-synchronized streets where a driver going a certain (indicated all along the street) speed should hit the greens every time. The problem one one street I've seen it used for is, the sign is very vague about when this system is active "during peak traffic hours" so I do not know when to go the suggested speed or not.

I'm pretty sure they do. Vendor mimetypes violate the Uniform Interface constraint and the "no prior knowledge" constraint.
USA seems to have an excess of human labour and they're scaling back the space program in favour of private enterprise. From what I see of the private enterprise is that not much is happening as they seek those specialised in certain skills.

You could put faith in several people groups like Copenhagen Suborbitals, CSTART, OSM and the like, but like above they seek those specialised in certain skills.

That's to discount the paradox of technology efficiency: Food becomes cheaper but unemployed people can't pay for it.
Is RAD looking for an experienced graphics programmer / etc, by chance?
Yes, this would be a big problem if warfare was to become fully automated.

We historically have not done version bumps for minor improvements to the API that do not break existing applications. 2010-04-01 has been updated a couple times since it was first released with new features (like subaccounts, applications and short codes) but all of those were additive there was no reason to change the version.

Why does everything have to be social? Reading for me is a profoundly private experience. I get away from the world, I get away from people, and I sit alone and read.

As for leaving windows, just leave. It doesn't matter where. There's a pain to using windows you just get used to, it's just more of a subtle irritation that comes from using a system where the creators didn't want to make something particularly good. It's literally painful for me to use windows now that I don't do it very often anymore. There are just so many little things that hurt that I just can't do it. I start yelling at the screen about random UI choices rather quickly.

The Mac is honestly more pleasurable to use. Copy/Paste are Apple-C, Apple-V, and the other keyboard shortcuts are honestly more sensible than on windows. Not perfect -- there is no such thing as a perfect mapping, but very good. You can tell that someone on the UI side (or rather, many someones) actually cares about the little things that make the system easy to use.

With all that said, why not use a linux box? On major platforms (e.g. lenovo), they're reasonably well behaved on laptops, and really, it's more than good enough (in my book, windows is playing catch-up with ubuntu in usability now) for daily use.

(for the record: Ubuntu desktop at work, Mac work & home laptops, solaris desktop at home (long story))
- XCode is shit. Apple needs to get with the times here, we don't want want an IDE from the stone age.

- Point taken, Android emulator is slooooowww...

- Yeah, Android is indeed a bit more straightforward which is a BIG HUGE plus.

Development tools driving you away?

Apart from the emulator, what more could you wish for?

- You can choose from several Java IDEs (or use VI/Emacs if you so desire).
- You can choose from several userfriendly IDEs (I can't call XCode user/developer friendly).
- You're not locked to a Mac for development.

There:

> {1} With grep you need at least something to search (one argument), don't you? {2} If you don't provide another argument to say "where", it reads from standard input (as most unix commands).

And ‘find’ is the other way around.

I just don't see any reason to not to use cat. It's not like grep will use fseek() to speed anything up, if I call it with file URI instead.

Scar removal
Scars are visible signs that happen after a wound has healed. Today most of the surgeons suggest the laser scar technique, which is also recognized as dermabrasion, because it is safer and gives healthier results.

Out of curiosity, what's different about RAD's hiring?
The demo cutout is also resting on carpet, not mounted to a steel frame. It does appear to require a fairly sturdy whack.
Interestingly Istanbul-drivers are not liked at all in other parts of Turkey as well. When asked they say they have to otherwise they will not make it.
sadly, there's more to instant search just fast loading.
Android App Turns Smartphones Into Mobile Hacking Machines

How does one define "skilled"? I suspect that the definition is something like "A job is skilled if it can't be automated". If we go with that definition then yes, by definition automation destroys unskilled jobs.
I think in short time this light colors would go black with exhaust smoke. And as someone who drives in Istanbul some time to time, I think what Istanbul needs is strict control and huge fines. Traffic is full of aggressive *astarts who does not respect any pedestrian or other drivers.

I lived in Istanbul for long time. I agree that traffic and some drivers are terrible, It is correct that they don't care about zebra crossings, but drivers obeys traffic lights in general. The main issue is density, too much vehicles, too little roads and everybody is in a hurry.

Also Cairo is definitely worse than Istanbul.

Total tax burden includes sales tax that you pay on what you spend, property tax, gas tax, payroll taxes, taxes on utility bills, dog license fees, etc. I don't think 40% is completely far fetched.

Not sure how exactly one would calculate this, though, other than looking at taxes as percentage of GDP and maybe trying to fit yourself in there somehow based on your tax bracket as a ratio to other people. But with an average total tax burden of 26.9% (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_tax_revenu...), 40% for someone in an upper bracket doesn't sound so crazy.

Police fire on and kill civilians every day in the USA, why would someone in the military behave any differently if ordered to do so? They've already agreed to obey to kill at someone else's request.
I've always tried to devote as much time to my work as possible, whenever possible. However my job drained the energy out of me and made any effort I put in become spread out over multiple little projects. The main reason I'm asking this here is because I have a nice amount of time to sit down and work on one little project until completion.

Honestly if I can hold it in my hands and it works in a unconventional way, it's brilliant.

Another poster mentioned GB development, I honestly think controlling external devices (AVR, Arduino, etc) in a standard way using something like a GameBoy would be a worthwhile project.
I want the young punks to become more stupid about low-level programming and hardware development because it allows everyone with the knowledge to have job security. Ha ha ha, I'm laughing all the way to the bank!

The Free Lunch Myth - Milton Friedman
Another way to look at it is that "You have to perservere so that your execution catches up with your taste."

I read a blog post explaining that this is the reason you dont see great writers who have a Masters or higher in literature. Their taste is so refined that when they read their own attempts at writing they get very discouraged and give up.

Hmmm now I have to go finish off my crappy app.

I guess it could happen gradually (as these things usually do). But the original poster was talking about 50% of the population (500 million people in China alone). I have a hard time believing anyone could think that killing off half a billion people would be the way to go (rather than trying to work change into your social structure). It just sounds too James Bond villanesque.

Also, if 50% of people are unemployed there will be a lot of people who are employed who sympathise with them, so we are really talking about 80% plus.
RAD's only ten programmers and that number stays more or less constant. The way everyone is hired is unique and inevitably somewhat odd. But it usually involves knowing Jeff or Jeff knowing of you for a long time and eventually he makes an offer when it makes sense.
Man you're a life saver, I spent an entire afternoon researching this, and finally gave up after dozens of blogs said it was impossible.

Infact an article on stack overflow explained the whole situation as impossible so I gave up researching and wrote my own dispatcher.
May be the future will be like Wall-e movie. Where humans do no work at all (even walking).
i'm sorry, but the least expensive 27" iMac is $1700, a comparable monitor would be the Dell Ultrasharp u2711 which is about $850. So while the iMac isnt that bad of a deal, "not much more than the cost of a comparable monitor" is just false.
I'm a Unix person. My desktops still run Linux, and my laptops use to run Linux, too. I switched to Mac laptops simply because they are now good Unix boxes that actually work well on laptops.

Linux on laptops was inevitably painful in one way or another, and with a small price premium, I get the best of both worlds with Mac laptops now.

I think we are in agreement. I was just trying to clarify my comment above because I was confused as to why my previous comment had been down voted. +1 for you :-)
I'm usually surprised and inspired by the optimism and constructiveness of comments on HN. I sometimes view reading HN as a salve against cynicism. What the heck is happening in these replies? Usually when HN comments are critical, they are also constructive and the criticism is well thought out. In these replies some people are denigrating the entire indie-festival-poster style that is carrying startups to stardom calling it pase or not as likely to convert. And yet this style is preferred on all the rockstar YC/startup sites. In this case the only one who knows the conversion figures is the parent. The rest of the replies are fueling their cynicism with guesses and assumptions and inexplicably turning against an aesthetic that I feel we've built. HN: What the heck?

Bad idea for several reasons:

1) Patents are monopolies to begin with. A monopoly can generally pass its costs on to the consumer. So the companies now being harassed by intellectual property leeches would just feel a bigger bits

2) The government getting revenue from patents would be an incentive for the government to expand patents.

3) It would legitimize the patents even further.

4) It would be a quick way for a company to claim a huge value. Even if it cost the company some taxes, showing a return that said "10 million dollars in intellectual property" would be a fabulous way to convince a naive investor you really had something worth 10 million dollars - that they could buy for a cheap only 1 million dollars.

...

I could probably go on. File under "the seductive lure of perverse incentives..."
Citation needed? Honestly? Do you honestly think Google does things from the goodness of their hearts and will always do the right thing for their consumers rather than their share holders? I think we should always view he actions of a company with how they make money in mind. This makes a lot of moves clearer I think.

Lumping all fees and duties together is not what people normally assume. Usually, just the income tax is compared, as it is present in most economies of the world.

Here in Norway an income tax bracket of 50% for a well-off middle class family is fairly normal. On top of that, sales tax is 25%, gas is mostly made of taxes (about 2.5 times what you'd pay in the US) etc.

Still somehow there's less bitching about taxes (or gas price) per capita than you hear from overseas :)

Your claims are easily proven false. Any platform where you're targeting multiple hardware devices needs more architecture, design and testing work.

The fact that the implementation phase takes about the same time is not very relevant, especially when considering that you're cutting corners and using the same UX on all platforms.

I would love to see a more accessible version of Mechanical Turk that a broader range of people could use. Maybe something in a kiosk format that could be put in low income neighborhoods. Even the most uneducated can answer a question like "Is there a person in this picture?", and anyone could earn money for a meal for several hours of work.

I'm sure there are several other examples of new types of low level employment that will arise as automation increases. In a world where everything is automated, there is no such thing as "too much training data".
I don't think resolution is quite as important as context, or rather the ease that lies within multiple monitors for switching context.

I recently switched from three 19" monitors to two 27" monitors (I'm a php / javascript / python developer). I assumed that having the same horizontal resolution with extra vertical resolution would add to my productivity.

With three monitors I had three contexts in which I merely needed to glance in a direction. Almost like doing an "alt+tab" in my mind. If I wanted to check my current code in or run unit tests, look at my left monitor and type. If I wanted to read or write code, look at my center monitor and type. If I wanted to test output or find a reference, look at right monitor and type. *

With two monitors (regardless of resolution), I have one less context. I actually have to think about window placement. Those seconds add up. More importantly the cost of switching context adds up as I get deeper into what I'm working on. If something was important, I maximized it to a screen and that's all that screen was. That is what it meant to look in that direction. Now I maximize a window and... well a 27" window is pretty ridiculous unless your work involves graphics. There's less permanence and hence more to remember.

Save money on the resolution and get yourself as many decent-sized monitors as your desk / system can handle. I assume it's possible to have too many monitors, but I feel I would have done better with three slightly larger monitors (or just a fourth monitor) than I am with two that can hold more pixels than the three. I plan to find out very soon.

* By "look and type", I mean tap my mouse in that direction and click to activate the window and then type.

New industry will be service-orientated. Even if robot cooks can make a better pizza, people will tell themselves that human-made ones are more individual, and taste better.

As the price of human labor goes to zero, humans will be increasingly used as marketing props.

In a democracy or socialist state, handouts or negative taxation will redistribute wealth.
I've done this on a couple well-visited client sites and it worked incredibly well. The best part is that it's super easy to add an invisible "email" field to a form and check if it has any content on the backend. By far the best bang for the buck.
