You're mixing up society with government.

And, by the way, you have not refuted grandparent at all. Much on the contrary, you have only ratified that you have chosen money and lifestyle over working on something you believe in. I don't think gp was judging you for that, only saying that was indeed your choice.
If it's publically accessible and not password or rate-limited then it's fair game for hackers to goof around with. Just don't base your startup on a (any) Google API.
Yes, this most certainly has a lot of potential for that aspect. This tool could serve as a way to validate your assumptions where for pages that are ranking well on Google.
I pay for Spotify, as a US customer, and have gotten huge value out of it. I was a Zune subscriber for 2 years (I think); it was a great, valuable service to me. I eventually cut it off because I lost my Zune and didn't want to buy another. Spotify fills that niche, without tying me to a platform AND $5/mo cheaper. Love Spotify, hope they all become gazillionaires.

Record Windows 7 Screen
Many people want to record their computer screen on windows 7, but don’t know choose which program to do it. This passage will discover what the right Screen Recorder for Windows7 is.
For this particular study the numbers are fantastic, but there is no indication that this therapy will actually cure any other CLL patients. Just last year the NCI estimated there would be 15,000 CLL new patients. A favorable result with just 3 patients isn't a big enough percentage to call this new treatment anything but experimental.

However, that wasn't my original point. This therapy is obviously at a very early stage. Headlines like this in the lay media are extremely misleading to the general public, because a majority of people will not take the time to read or understand the entirety of the article.
I second this, but i would probably use the term architect as much as I dislike it,if you use a term like software lead and they do discover it was an executive level position they may feel that you are being deceptive. Where architect implies executive level but hands on. After-all the CTO position could be equated to being the top level architect.

BTW I have been the CTO at three different orgs, as well as the VP of tech at a fortune 100 and have had no problem bouncing between technical and executive level positions.
Someone else explained my problem with the title better than I managed. http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2875082

Imagine the headline read, "Gas up to $8.23 a gallon" and only upon reading the article did you discover that the "gas" they're talking about is 110 octane race gas. Yes, race gas is a type of gas(oline), but the headline is still quite misleading, as the common definition, without qualifiers, is the pump variety.

As for claims of the patent, it does really cover traversing at all. It mentions it, but the meat of the patent is the data structure having two or three pointers built in for traversing and choosing between those pointers for different traversals. This is all very obvious and frivolous, but it's not claiming the basics of traversing a linked list.

(As for your side note, I found that really strange as well. I can't imagine why thy specifically called out the cases of 2 and 3 pointers. Were they planning on filing later for 4 and 5 when they figured it out?)
I meant in the average computer-equipped office. By the way, if anyone knows where I can get a Cray X-MP I'd love to hear about it.
I don't believe there are any "racist undertones" in the article. The article is observing a shift in the user demographics of blackberries from business executives to a lower economic class because the blackberry currently provides cheap messaging.
I think most people's eyes glaze over at 'pitches' like this.
They clearly have more of an incentive for this kind of a fraud (though other school might have some incentive).

Could you explain this statement?

Also, many non-profit colleges (including plenty of schools as bad as any for-profit) also would not exist without student loans and other govt subsidies.

I agree with Anigbrowl. The middle point doesn't stand alone and was not meant to. You've gaken it out of contest which is disingenuous. Given your phrasing he claimed with motivation and moral conviction, determination to achieve their goal would have him liking the "rioters" more. Though rioters would doubtfully be the correct word in that case.
Yeah, that's what I was getting at. Something like that is pretty much immune to naive brute force, even if we count "Smells like teen spirit" as a word. My guess would be that if it does get cracked, it would be by searching [lyric]+", and"+[some kind of Markov attack], but I honestly have no idea how one would work out the entropy in that model. It depends a lot on how the search is carried out, I think.

I guess we'll find out when passphrases become common :)

Well, this is my first chrome extension. So please pardon me if it has some really n00bish code.
The correct way to write the quote would have been ">The rioters this week haven't shared the same [...] determination", where the [...] shows you're editing: by implication you're not doing so misleadingly, but the reader gets the chance to check whether they agree.

The problem with your post as you wrote it is that you appeared to be making the claim that the word "same" immediately preceded the word "determination" in the source you were quoting. Which isn't true. This matters not because the difference is important in this case (we all agree it's not), but because people think poorly of you and your arguments when you make false assertions through carelessness (they think you might do it again and it might matter next time).
I wish I could pay people that. I'm probably above $100k/employee in SF.

I agree. We're lucky to be building in a desirable but relatively cheap part of Florida (Gainesville, home to the University of Florida and Grooveshark, and in a state with no income tax) and $400k doesn't stretch very far. I can't imagine what it would be like building in the valley or NYC on that.

I would say bad experience know no boundaries, I have heard horror stories from people who contracted the firm across the hall. It is dependent on the developers, not their location.

The two aren't incompatible. He chose the money. If society truly valued medical research, he wouldn't have had to make that choice -- the money would be in medical research.
Beg HN for feedback: I wrote Receipt Party to organize your digital receipts
Small business people, contractors, and organization addicts of HN, I'd love to hear your expert feedback on my recent project.

Receipt Party aims to be a system for organizing digital receipts that iss so simple, you'll actually use it.

Here is how it works: when a receipt lands in your inbox, you forward it to paper@receiptparty.com At the end of the month, you get an envelope containing hard copies of all of your digital receipts, organized by vendor and date.

The site is http://www.receiptparty.com
It is surprising how many people are willing to speak out against assembly language based only on conversations they've had or articles they've read.

Most people will speak out against any language because of some troll or flame-war they've followed on the Internet.

If you want to learn assembly, do it. There doesn't have to be a practical application. You can learn something just because you think it's cool. It's not always about the salary or the market-usefulness of each skill you learn.

Doesn't algorithmic trading simply smooth out price fluctuations to the point that individual traders receive nothing, while HFT houses skim immense numbers of tiny slivers?

Yes. Good speculation smooths out price fluctuations to the point that bad speculators receive nothing, while good speculators receive all the alpha. This is true not only of HFT, but of any good strategy.

...claims of HFT value are heavily undermined by their tendency to drop out of the market during crashes.

If you don't want HFT and other speculators to drop out of the market during crashes, don't break trades after the fact.

During a crash, most HFT's should make money hand over fist. But if the market centers break trades, HFT's are in danger of stabilizing the market and being heavily penalized for it.

I.e., if an HFT pushes accenture up from $0.05 to $1.00 and sells at $35, following which accenture eventually goes up to $40, they run the risk of having their $1.00 buy trade broken. Then they are stuck with a short sale at $35, while the price of accenture went up to $40.
Reminds me of the Chris Rock skit. The money is in the medicine, not the cure.

I'm generalizing, but It seems as if institutions who have made a living researching treatments to major diseases don't seem that interested in cures. That could threaten their existence. So they put their money in providing hospital services instead of research. They can't get government money for research grants if their idea for research seems too unorthodox.

In the end, it's about protecting jobs and finding a way for you to live longer with the disease.

Can an almost-40 years old guy start programing?
Hi
I'm 37 and I'm a telecom engineer. I would like to develope iOS apps.

Right that's the solution.

When there's civil unrest, why try to fix the problem that caused it when you can just stop people from organizing the unrest?
The XKCD comic is only partially correct. Depending on what source you believe English text has about 0.6 to 2.3 bits of entropy per character. This means you need somewhere between 4.7 and 18.3 characters in each word to reach 11 bits of entropy per word.
Assuming entropy is closer to 2 bits per character this is a realistic situation. However, when you assume entropy is closer to 1 bit per character the words have to be too long to be realistic.

Americans are somewhat unique among English speaking people for not distinguishing between liberalism and leftism. Once you make that distinction, the "amorphous civil-liberties contingent" is liberal by definition.

The culture of internet outrage that involves upvoting these things to the roof does get in the way of understanding and addressing the issue in a reasonable fashion. I don't think it matters especially what specific worldview someone has when they're in that mindset.

The trouble is that by human intuitions, you think there's a strong inverse correlation between being hard to guess and easy to remember; but that's not always the case.

It's hard for humans to remember meaningless conjunctions of symbols, so we think they are hard to guess; so we err on the side of making them too short. Contrariwise, we think a sequence of just four words couldn't possibly be hard to guess because it's so easy to remember, but it's only easy to remember because we can use the meanings of the words to form an idea or image, something our brains are built for (unlike strings of meaningless characters).

This is why the word technique is better: it corresponds better with how we remember, while reducing two other risks: the risk of losing your password - non-trivial - and choosing too short a password.
武汉拉迪亚
Yeah, i wanted to talk about race and class, looking at who uses them. I find it ironic that folks were calling me racist (i think they meant classist). I in fact chose the nick, rabble, in part because i identify with the unwashed masses. It's been all over the UK news that the rioters using their blackberries were the rabble. :-)

Perhaps people are calling me racist because of the mad men clip. The biz execs in that clip are racist. That's not to imply that today the execs at RIM are racist. I don't know them, couldn't tell you either way. The whole transition for blackberries is about class, not race anyway.
It really isn't an interesting exercise. It's comparing one bombing by one person to thousands of acts of vandalism and theft by thousands of people.

It's fairly self evident that "looking deeper into the root causes" is not going to prevent rioters from destroying private property in the next 24 hours.

Profit Tempest Review
Profit Tempest Review
"That's actually a very reasonable salary and keeps out the guys who are looking to collect fat paychecks working 35 hours/week. You want work/life balance and 100k+ per year? fine, go work at Google. If you want the upside that comes with working at a startup you need to be willing to take on some of the risk."

That's just a steaming pile of horseshit. I'm sorry to be so blunt, but I've been in this world for a while now, and nothing infuriates me more than when entrepreneurs try to delude employees (particularly younger employees) into working for far below market in exchange for promises of fairy farts and equity dreams.

In a city where a one-bedroom apartment costs >$2,000 a month, $100k isn't a "fat" paycheck. It's right about average. And even if you choose to work below market, the <1% equity stake that most funded startups are going to offer you won't make it worth the opportunity cost in anything less than the most exceptional outcome. You say you're working for $60k a year in San Francisco? Yeah, I hope you're getting a founder-level equity, because you're living with roommates and eating ramen.

I suppose the only plus side to this kind of nonsense is that any developer worth her salt will be poached within months by any one of the dozens of local startups that are looking for engineers and willing to pay market wages.

Don't fall for it, kids: you deserve to be fairly paid, and get some equity.

I'm not sure a nominal transaction tax would eliminate high frequency trading. HFT guys already pay fees to the exchanges and regulators. Either way, you're right, an increased fee would simply be passed to investors in the form of an increased spread.
> many MPs, including the PM, were vocal about the benefits of social media during this whole sorry affair

I find this sort of thing almost more disturbing. It implies that whether we should allow totalitarian measures merely depends on a judgement of case by case merit - oh look, social media had a good side that balanced out the bad side, let's not ban it. This time. So what if the authorities decide one day there is no good side? Or just that they don't like the good side that might exist?

This kind of statement sounds good but is actually an argument FOR censorship in disguise.

Ask HN: How is the startup employee hiring market doing?
Hello HN, I'd like to commit a very unscientific study here asking how busy and active the startup hiring market is. I'd really appreciate it if current YC-funded (and non-YC as well) startups could input with their experience when posting jobs.

How many replies do they get to job postings? 5 replies? 15? 30?

Are most of the replies genuine and related to the position/posting at hand or just enquiries into meta things related to it?

Do certain types of postings get more attention than others?

How many hits do the engineering/dev postings get compared to postings for designers and how is the response different between them?

What platform or service do you use to handle the process? Email? The Resumator? Jobvite? Something else?

What job boards do you all post jobs typically to? 37Signals? StackOverflow's? Others?

Do you notice any trends not asked here that you can share? For example, where do the best employees tend to come from, word-of-mouth/network referrals? Company site postings? Competitions/hackathons?

How prevalent is the use of Github/Bitbucket/Launchpad and general open source contributions to gauge employees?

I really appreciate your time in responding, I'm really curious about the startup space and how hiring is going currently and would like to see how competitive it is right now.

I think it's fine if some/most of the
postings are anonymous/throwaways, maybe you can share more in privacy that way.

Some of the more mature, older YC startups are posting pretty regularly to the /jobs board on HN so it'd be especially neat to hear from them. Can't wait until the new batches start growing and needing to post hirings there.
A while back I remember using an extension that would restore all of your previous tabs on start up, but not actually load them until you clicked on them. It fixed the situation you describe, but sadly it looks like it no longer works with the current version of Firefox.
I found this statement pretty surprising. Maybe in the next step when it gets doubled, that's a more realistic number. $160k/employee? Either that or the only employee is an office admin?

Opposite. More like FFI/JNI to Bosch/Qemu. Android NDK, and other foreign-function interfaces are a way to de-secure & de-manage secure code: a controlled mechanism for stepping out of the sandbox. Google NaCL, like other virtualizers, is a way to contain inherently insecure code into a (well?) defined sandbox.
1Password supports all those devices as well.
Do you have actual evidence of this? Can you point out a superstar engineer who will work for 65k + options? I can't think of any, and I know quite a lot of developers. I haven't even heard of one working for that little.
For anyone that grew up outside of using a Bourne Shell (bash, sh, etc) like myself, this appears to be compatible with at least the C shell. A welcome relief, in my opinion.
