MLM Training Tips-Creating  a Billion Dollar Paradigm Shift?
>This pressure on OEMs is an anti-competitive move by a monopoly abuser and, as such, must be dealt with properly.

Dealt with by making an average Windows user more vulnerable to undetectable malware? The Chinese would be pretty happy with this.

Microsoft is feeling the pressure from Mac on the desktop regarding security and they should be banned from securing their machines? And this applies only to the "made for Windows 8" sticker, nothing else. It will happily boot on other and older machines.

The proper way to "deal" with this lies with conditions etc. imposed on the OEMs, not Microsoft who should have the right to secure their OS from undetectable rootkits. You're barking up the wrong tree.
damn, I keep having to double check because it's almost unbelievable they can pack that much capability into something so cheap?

You say thank you by voting up the URL or comment. Literally saying "thank you", "I agree", or stuff like "+1" is frowned upon because it doesn't add to the discussion (see http://ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html).
That "brogrammer" part was ambiguous, and it wasn't clear whether it was meant as a compliment or a complain. Reading the next paragraph about her going to meetups and advancing her career does make it clear that it was meant to be positive, but I still find the premise and conclusion inconsistent.

> But I think looking at a friendship from the angle of how it can benefit you and make you a better person is a somewhat selfish metric upon which to judge the quality or value of a friend.

I was put off by the article in a way I couldn't quite pin down. What you said was exactly it.

I'm all for intellectual stimulation by interacting with people in the same profession, but that's not all there is to life. It's certainly not all there is to being a happy and successful person, at least in my book. If my friends happen to be in the same profession, that's great. I'm not ready to declare that anyone outside of development is unworthy of my time.
It seems to have become routine for a year's subscription to mean 10 issues. Sometimes 8 (Tennis magazine, for example). Usually this is explicitly stated someplace in the subscription offer, but never as large as A FULL YEAR FOR ONLY.

Worse are magazines that start as 12 issues a year then quietly shift to the 10 (or 8) a year scheme. Tennis magazine, come to think of it, did that.

The local Phoenix newspaper, the Arizona Republic, has been pulling crap like this. A year or two ago they announced that "readers" no longer wanted such a large, full, Monday issue. Apparently the strain of reading the Sunday edition left them too tuckered, so Monday was now this skimpy collection of AP stories. Which, of course, is what the Saturday edition had become some time ago.

Come Thanksgiving they bulk up the holiday paper with extra ads and coupons (i.e., ads). Then they charge more, apparently for the privilege of seeing more ads.

Competing in the age of the Internet is tough, but being a weasel to your customers seems like a really ill-conceived strategy.

If I didn't know any better I'd say they were fucked.

English isn't my first language, but I believe "hoe" means prostitute, and doesn't have any positive connotations in any context.

Your remark doesn't have anything to do with the context, and is offensive.
Haha, s/engineer/theoretical physicist/ and you sound like TBBT's Sheldon Cooper.
Wow. Where I live, since at least 2005, I can choose the seats in a movie theatre when buying a ticket (even online now). Seems like a lot of prior art.
Stuff Harvard people Like
The first language I learned was clisp and it was the only one I used for the first two years.

It was awesome. It was a long learning curve, and I couldn't do almost anything for a really long time, but I got to a point where I knew everything about this tiny universe and had a solid foundation to branch out from. With that I went on to learning java, python, js, and c, and became fascinated at how much faster things became as I used more state and therefore got closer to the hardware.

For a while I was a little worried that I would only be able to use functional programming and would not be able to learn how to use state, but that was not the case.
The Android app is terrible in low signal situations. When sending a message it blocks the entire app with a "Sending" modal window. I don't know how they could've fucked that up so bad. If you've going in and out of service you have to kill the app and reopen it to even get back to the inbox. I can't imagine why they didn't just show the message in a pending status the way the standard SMS app does.

I never saw it from that point of view but it's very true. I feel like that word should be reserved for very special cases like Tchaikovsky or picasso, but those kind of geniuses correspond to that era where most things didn't exist. In our times we had Jobs, a man that was really good at making technology feel like an extension of yourself while keeping it very sleek. This, in a world where there's information overload, I think is genius enough.

I think you're looking for a different word here. Hypocritical, according to my dictionary, means "behaving in a way that suggests one has higher standards or more noble beliefs than is the case".
>I'm not sure why ordinary programmers shouldn't know what a monad is, it's an extremely useful pattern that makes code much easier to read. It's like not knowing what an array is.

I'd say it's like only knowing what an array is instead of being able to generalize to an Enumerable/Iterable thing.
Until the next software upgrade ?
That is oversimplified to the point of inaccuracy.

Taiwan is a democracy, and one of the major parties firmly opposes any concept of Chinese rule and seeks recognition of Taiwan. The other party leans towards being the sole leader of all of China. However in practice (being currently elected) they just improve economic ties with China while opposing unification or formal recognition of Taiwan.

The PRC sees Taiwan as a province of China that they should rule, as you mentioned.
speed up my page-load time and reduce the number of development tools that I depend on

Most people like to speed up their page-load time, but reducing the number of tools you rely on seems a strange thing to do (unless it is some kind of enforce-artificial-constraints thing).

A good craftsperson knows their tools well, and knows which tool to use where. Reducing the number of tools seems artificially limiting.
Cute anecdote, but I was hoping for something about social media data analysis...
Not necessarily, new versions of windows could ship signed with the same key.

You could install previous versions of Windows the same way if, for instance, there was a windows update or new service pack integrated with the install media that contained a signed kernel.
Beware founders who read the Steve Jobs biography
Some read the Steve Jobs biography and view it as (A) a validation of their personal theory of themselves as immortal gods. Others view it as (B) a check on their potentially destructive and divisive behavior.

How your founder interprets the book will have an enormous influence on your personal happiness in the next few months. I hope, for your sake, that your founder is more B than A.
> you must prove these very strong claims that you are making

What very strong claims are you referring to? I have only made two claims:

1) The FBI is easily capable of doing the data processing to monitor 300M people, and so flooding it with data is not an effective defense against being monitored. Facebook monitors 500M+ people. Do you seriously doubt that the FBI couldn't?

2) Data mining the information from 300M people is virtually certain to lead to false positives. Proving this is an elementary exercise in probability theory. The details are left as an exercise.
"Imagine you have at least 15 competitors. Some of whom have been around for years. All of whom have more money than you, and same amount of reach (no... more than you). However you think they all suck and you can do better. Why?
If you can answer the why, you have a solid idea. That why is what everyone is looking for."

You know what's funny about that, though? Larry and Sergey wouldn't have had a great answer for that question when they started. They had a relatively primitive technology demo, and were taking on massive competitors with deep pockets (hell, even they tried to sell the idea before they gave in and started Google). There's absolutely no reason that one of the major search companies couldn't have focused their resources on search, come up with something similar to PageRank, and smothered Google in the crib. They just didn't. Oops.

Frequently, the correct answer to your question is: "our competitors are bureaucratic and slow, and while our approach could be replicated by any good, two-person team, history suggests that won't happen"...but that always seems to be the hardest answer to sell. Everyone is looking for the deterministic solution to the problem of innovation, when the solution is actually stochastic.
> Imagine if Yahoo hadn't flubbed the acquisition of Google? We'd all be worse off.

It goes both ways. Imagine if Google hadn't bought Android? We'd all be worse off.
I presume by 'user' you mean the IT person who manages existing PBX, either 'traditional' or IP-based systems from Cisco and such? One thing you might want to think about is having a succinct answer to the market opportunity to frame the opportunity better with those you talk to. For example:
- What is the market / opportunity for replacing existing PBXs - assuming that cost/features/benefit don't make sense to keep these vs moving to something IP based?
- What is unique about what you are doing, such that it's compelling against Cisco? (assuming they are most successful IP-based telephony equipment provider)
- What is unique about what you are doing, against SAAS alternatives, such as using things like RingCentral in the cloud with IP/SIP handsets.
- And are you price/feature competitive against what integrators and companies internally are doing with Asterisk?
Seems like with a great story against these types of questions, you could have a reasonable chat with an investor.

You could consider aligning yourself with a national VAR/Integrator if you made life easier for them in terms of placing or managing systems.

You could also approach someone that might want 'in' to this space. Maybe you are just upmarket from what someone like "RingCentral" does, and you would give them a solution complimentary to their own, such that they'd want to fund and distribute this.

Just some ideas, hope something potentially helpful. Best of luck!

It's also quoted in in the book Vagabonding by Rolf Potts. After quitting my job and traveling around SE Asia for 2 months, its amazing how that quote describes exactly how you feel when you return home.

So much of what you see is exactly the same - the places you used to hang out at, your family and friends - but the lens through which you look at it is completely different.
Klout is not "people." Klout is an incredibly obnoxious service that scrapes Twitter for information. (Topsy is another one.) People who want to be validated by their terrible little company may choose to do so. I do not, and any halfway reputable company would honor the request to be removed from their listings.

The bigger problem, of course, is that they assert that I "[am] on Klout," when I damned well am not. A page that they have scraped from services that actually provide meaningful value has information about me on it, but I am not "on" their site in any meaningful way. They co-opt my online presence (not that it's worth much) to attempt to drive my acquaintances to use their service, when their service isn't even one I use.

But, y'know. Ignoring the people whose data you're scraping and lying about their use of your service is just real ingenious hustling, or...something. I've lost track of the various ways people excuse terrible behavior like this from trendy companies.
Credible doesn't mean telling the truth, it means being believed.

Credibility IS key in marketing, and Palantir makes people believe they are credible enough to hand over a big cheque. And then after they get that cheque they deliver. The person who cut the big cheque doesn't care that Palantir isn't really a billion dollar company, they care that Palantir delivered what they told them they would.

The marketing claims are just social proof.
Schedule Management | EPM Live
The schedule is one of the most critical components used for delivering a project. Project Managers have needs to manage schedules with different levels of rigor and complexity.
A related problem caused by this is that the word "genius" usually gets ascribed only to people working in some specific domains (obviously ones where other "geniuses" have worked). So we end up with a world where if you do things A, B, and C amazingly well, you get called a genius, but if you do D, E, and F equally well, you are either ignored or called greedy or something else. As a consequence, a ton of young naive people who were told they were smart in school flock to fields A, B, and C, while fields D, E, and F stagnate causing all sorts of economic problems.
Your analogy is terrible. Both examples you gave refer to musicians who are technically capable, but with one being able to turn his mastery of the instrument into music that people like.

Steve Jobs did not have mastery of the instrument. He was "technically limited", but still able to create compelling products. If you wanted to keep the analogy, it would be better to say that he was Bob Dylan (coincidentally, he was one of SJ personal idols).

Anyway, I'm going to try again: can you please stop with the Apple fanboyism? Such blind worshiping and your monotonic comments are so annoying that it makes me want to dislike anything about SJ and Apple.
Sweet n' Salty Capacitor
This is very difficult to phrase without sounding like I'm attempting to insinuate my intelligence.

But I don't believe that many very intelligent men took more than 10 minutes to solve this problem, unless it was presented to them in some dramatically different way (eg, the name was not emphasized as much as it was here).
I know this is barely relevant, but anyway: if we're all the average of our 5 closest friends, it means we're all identical, unless the population is split into disjoint subgroups that have no friendships between them.

If that's not the case, how could the highest-quality person have 5 friends? By definition, they're all worse than her, so their average can't be equal to her, unless we're all equal.

Anyway, back to the anecdotes about Eventbrite or whatever.

Thanks. That's an interesting link, but it describes an income tax. It is just the kind of tax I'm arguing against. Its aim seems to have been to prevent individuals from delaying payment of income tax that was held within companies.
> The dominating term is clearly people

Now who has the burden of proof?

> who must ultimately review the truly promising information.

You could make the same argument for e.g. the stock market. Program trading can never become a dominant force in the market because humans must ultimately make all the decisions (like what programs to run). The flaw in this reasoning should be self-evident.

> this is irrelevant to the government [because of] red tape

You put too much faith in red tape. You may not have noticed, but since 9/11 there has arisen a shadow government that is not subject to normal bureaucratic constraints, or indeed even to the rule of law. See e.g. http://projects.washingtonpost.com/top-secret-america/

For you beginners out there that want to get into web development
Learning about multitier / MVC architecture in my MIS Database class and I remember having difficulty understanding the different parts of a website / web app back in the day. I hope this helps a little bit!
Yeah, I feel you. Unfortunately, I don't think it's possible to tackle this without a fundamental shift in the development community. Self-documenting code is practically a fallacy, and people forget that we're supposed to write code primary for other humans to read, and only incidentally for computers to execute.

I wonder if a marketplace for documentation development would help the problem. This might not work, however, since writing documentation requires a good amount of familiarity with the code base.
mission-critical = consulting company, govt contractor, some organization with advanced bureaucracy

another question: why is sed in quotes?

tis true what you say. somewhere in that time, better hardware and better storage became an excuse to write worse software. and this has continued unchecked to the present.

programmers rejoice in the option to be lazy, sloppy and ignorant as if this signifies great advances in software. small advances perhaps relative to the huge advances in hardware and storage. but the real loss is one of skill.

My biggest concerns on this article is "He explained that he had a conversation once with Amazon founder and CEO Jeff Bezos about this, and the average time someone stays in job at Seattle is twice as long than it is in Silicon Valley. "

Could we say "higher liquidity in labor markets empowers disruptive innovation" or "disruptive innovation needs higher fluid labor markets."? If someone knows the report about this issue, please share with us.

Actually, the labor market in Japan is very lower liquidity. The reasons will be that most Japanese prefers stability in their life, and that recruiters in big firms prefer lower number of career changes in a specific period, 5 or 10 years. Concurrently, we have experienced social slumber, so-called "Lost Decade".

But, for reference, here is the interesting point about Japan History.

When we experience drastic social change, such as The Meiji Restoration and The Defeat in WW2, most Japanese suddenly abandons the preference for stability and drastically drives themselves to creative destruction. Sony and Honda were born right after WW2.

3.11 Tohoku Earthquake might have been a good trigger for drastic social change in Japan.
