Where the heck did you hear this? This means I could open a hardware store, and a black person would come in for an interview, and I could be like "Black people need not apply"?

That sounds awfully ridiculous.
Glen Darby Condor Blanco is the  copper-gold company 
It is the strategy and vision of the board and management of Condor Mines to provide shareholders with the opportunity of investing in a Chilean copper-gold company with world class exploration prospects and a near term copper production potential.One of the core strengths of Condor Mines lies in the relationships it has developed with local partners.
Ah geez, that's unfortunate. The hack to make CJK input work is the only part of Textmate 1 that I found sucky.
A good team will often beat a good individual, but a team thrown together for the sake of having one will often amount to nothing.
Chris DiBona comments on anti-virus software for mobile devices
I read the story above and I did like it. It has a blend
of math, insanity, and consciousness like the story in the main article.

A synopsis for others to decide if they want to read it:
Chloe is a beautiful humanoid companion. Deliberately implanted
in the programming of her mind is a minor reasoning defect.
Whereas an ordinary person could live with it, and perhaps
not even be aware of it, Chloe cries and has fits whenever
she becomes aware of the flaw in her chain of thought.
A psychologist is brought in to figure things out.

By the way, "Sample 27" is the title and not the
27th sample story from the author as I originally thought.

A suggestion to the author: You might want to either not
use HTTPS or buy a certificate. I don't think it's a barrier
to Hackernews readers but most people won't get past
the browser's security exception box.

Hah. Try doing that when you have 782 open buffers. :-)

Also, Emacs doesn't have real Lion full screen support, but try "M-x set-variable RET ns-auto-hide-menu-bar RET t RET" which comes close.

"Substantial portion" from the IRS perspective would involve money or staff time. They have 2 floors of staff. None of whom need be involved in this other than possibly to approve the release of some community-requested code changes.
Odd, that’s exactly how we do things up here in Canada: You vote for the candidate you like. There is no way to vote against anybody.

Just like the HN front page, there is only room for the candidate who gets the most votes to win a seat in Parliament, so our democracy functions without downvotes.

How does it work where you live?

The images you download are 1400x2000px, which seems reasonable.

The zoom feature gives you access to image tiles. From a quick look, these are 258x258px images, named http://cudl.lib.cam.ac.uk/content/images/MS-ADD-04004-002-00...

Or something like that anyway.

It also uses something called Microsoft DeepZoom (http://cudl.lib.cam.ac.uk/content/images/MS-ADD-04004-001-00...), and is powered by a Json manifest (http://cudl.lib.cam.ac.uk/json/MS-ADD-04004.json?_dc=1323748...)

Enjoy.

It sure does seem like Verizon likes to add their 2 cents to everything rather than leave it as intended. To have a clean phone without all the bloatware that Verizon adds on would be great.
Having no cofounder is better than having a bad one, and starting a company solo is better than not starting one at all.

Don't get too hung up on the latest startup / incubator trends; plenty of companies have been started with one founder. Just go out and do it.
If you are just starting out learning how to develop, I think going the shared hosting route is the most cost efficient model.

The problems with the iPhone are getting to be crazy with the battery drain and now this!
If the Ember.js authors keep the library focused, I'm convinced this could be a very important project. Having tried the popular MVC frameworks out there, and having lots of experience with KnockoutJS, nothing out there is a clear winner yet for just binding Views. We need a library that focuses only on this problem, and excels at it, with no knowledge of URLs, AJAX, routing, storage, or default widgets/styles.
But there is a considerable number of people with YouTube addictions who would be, all things considered, just short of violent revolution. Corporations are only valuable because they provide money for advertising aimed at the people.
So your solution is to let them shut us down now, lest they be determined to shut us down in the future?

Wake up. You're late. Politicians have already learned the lesson that you fear they will learn, and they are right now taking the action that you hope they won't take in the future.

I understand what you are getting at and I agree but I'm not really sure it would be in your best advantage to divulge that kind of information in interviews for instance.
So as long as content adds network as novelty, it's ok. How about when network as novelty? Is that also ok?

You might as well face the issue: Google is exploring vertical integration, as are others.
I have to second the MultiDict suggestion -- I was very happy to see Werkzeug had gone that route when I had to throw some Python in front of Solr.
Which, as others have said, is why the black banner or page should target the Senators behind the legislation, not just the legislation itself. The Overton Window needs to be slammed shut on their fingers.
Copied from one of my posts on the previous announcement with some tweaks:

Both Ember and Backbone fall into what I call the KVO frameworks category (Angular, Javascript MVC, Knockout, Batman, others). Both use jQuery for DOM manipulation and revolve around the idea of having a canonical model and having that as the center of your app. As you change the model, it fires events that you use to update the DOM. The difference is that Backbone is philosophy.

Backbone provides a basic but complete set of tools for observing model changes combined with a set of utilities that are useful but not prescriptive to make wiring up DOM events, URL handling, etc straightforward. It works with what's in jQuery/the browser. All together, it provides the organization most js apps are sorely lacking but doesn't dramatically reduce LoC over what you could do with well factored jQuery and underscore. It's nice enough that the YUI team basically adopted it wholesale for the App framework in 3.5.

Ember is all about binding. You can not only observe properties but bind them to other properties bidirectionally so that changing one causes the change to propagate through all bound values including things like values being arrays. This extends to the Handlebars templating (which was written for Ember) where you can bidirectionally bind, for example, a boolean on your model to a checkbox and to a class on a div so that checking the checkbox toggles the class without anything in your app directly manipulating the DOM. Setting this up is just the attribute plus two object path strings in the template. This works not just between the template and model but also between model objects, for arrays of models, and for nested models and nested views. Used properly, this takes care of a significant fraction of client side state managment and a resulting reduction in LoC.

The cost is that Amber is 7x the size of Backbone, the templating language is tied to the framework, and there's more overhead in understanding the concepts, how they fit together, and how to apply them to your code. When I talk to people who are writing jQuery spaghetti, I steer them towards Backbone for the simplicity and superior docs but mention that I use Ember for my own projects.
I'm merely posing a question and saying all things equal it may be more advantageous to hire the candidate without a family.
I run a meetup in Portland and like the idea of being able to schedule a meetup on the fly like this. I think this should have many more categories though. From what I can tell, there are just categories to meet for drinks/food. My meetup is for concerts and there are hundreds of other special interests (hiking, movies, etc) that there should probably be categories for. If I want to meet a random person when having drinks, that's usually easy enough by showing up at any bar and talking to someone. The benefit of a meetup for me is to narrow down the field a bit to people with some common interests to start with.
Searching books.google.com for the quote is very useful too.
Dante didn't say that. I tell ya, don't trust those quote sites! There's only one that's mostly reliable. If you check there first, you'll often find what you're looking for under "Misattributed":

In this case, the source of the misquote is known: a 1963 speech by John F. Kennedy.

Steve Jobs Biography Is Amazon’s Best-Selling Book Of The Year
IMO, the current title unfairly sensationalizes the (what seems to be a very reasonable) response, and is a good example of why "editorialized" titles are ought to be discouraged.

While youre waiting start exercising, preferably outdoors, running, cycling or whatever. Force yourself and although I'm in California and we don't have miserable weather, I find that weather has that "whatever doesn't kill you" aspect to it.

Don't give up on finding another job. It will happen, just keep at it. Some people (me included) can only stay enthusiastic about a job for about a year. Then it becomes a paycheck and whatever else I can get out of it until I can move on to the next one.

I don't believe the mantra that idea's are a dime a dozen. Keep looking until you find an idea that really grabs you and get as much as you can out of it. If nothing else, do it and brush up on your tech skills for that next interview.

Please do see someone professional about your thoughts of suicide. Good luck, you are not alone.

You know, that's a really brilliant middle-of-the-road solution.

And if someone at Wikimedia, you know, notices a DoS and just happens to have problems with their load balancer.. hey, it's not their fault - they stayed neutral!
A couple of issues with your comparison: math is much more succinct than most code--it's more like a few pages of APL than a few pages of C++; also, code has to deal with performance so elegant solutions tend to give way to complicated messes in the face of finite hardware and imperfect optimizing compilers.

That said, you do have a good point. However, extreme complexity arising from a simple input is not that surprising--just look to the r pentomino in the game of life or the Mandelbrot set.
Previous discussion from last week: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3329038
I think the Lithuania bit is a false alarm. The pipeline needs a lot more work and investigation of results. The main thing I was focusing on first was scaling it out.
The one thing I didn't quite like when I heard PG speak at one of YCombinator's events in NYC was his insistence that you need to move to the Valley in order to launch a successful startup. Even at a seed-stage, there's great funds out there (TechStars Network among others) that happily invest in people all over the country.
Hi Matt! Congrats on the release - I just moved back to WP mainstream from a performance-oriented fork I'd been working on.

Sounds like you're depressed and jealous. Not a good thing. You might want to ask yourself why you worked in that dead-end job for 6 years, did you not know about HN during that time?

You can start by getting some sunshine for Vitamin D, and do some physical exercise of some sort, beyond that, you have to set yourself some goals, however small.

What sort of person do you wish to become when you become That Hacker? Perhaps you could give something to charity or start answering some questions on SO to feel better about yourself, or at least chrystalize your current knowledge.

I would also look at any heavy metal toxicity you might have.
Great job "not complaining" ;)
I'm not commenting on the article its self, but I liked this snippet:

"I’m the 1% of tech users. I know 99 other people out of 100 (close friends and relatives) that I could never get them to use the Oink app, Foursquare, or buy from Fab.com.

People need to build for the 99%."

Absolutely. There are so many opportunities solving problems outside the world of software with software. Unfortunately it's pretty hard to see and understand those opportunities when you only live in one domain (for most of us here that is software).
Since 3.2 (I think... maybe 3.1) WordPress has had an admin bar. The practical application of this is that once you're logged in, you can navigate to the page you want to edit (on the front-end of the live site), and then click "Edit Page" in the persistent bar at the top of the screen.
Perhaps someone here at HN can do what the RfC's opposing commenters repeatedly asked someone to do, but which no one (at least in the few hundred comments I read) actually did:

Explain how SOPA threatens the existence of Wikipedia. Show your work.

It's one thing to say "this situation is different! we're fighting for survival!" and another thing to argue it based on past real events and the actual contents of the bill.

There is a reason WP avoids political advocacy as a foundational principle, and it's not just to preserve their status as a charity.
Fun video. I want some coffee.

I think there is something to be said about being in the valley and being part of the collective. But, I also think being in other places (ie: LA, ATL, etc) gives you a different perspective on what you're working on. And, for me, having everyone in the coffee shop be part of startup is a bit of a burnout. No escape.
Commenting here instead of at WP.org makes it more of a rant than complaint :)
Here's one more to add to the mix:

> Also, Emacs doesn't have real Lion full screen support, but try "M-x set-variable RET ns-auto-hide-menu-bar RET t RET" which comes close.

It doesn't come close at all. It takes over the primary desktop which results in very weird behavior with the Dock. Which is, ultimately, the thing that drives me up the wall about Emacs. It doesn't behave like an OS X app, and the token GUI support is fiddly and jarring (lack of smooth scrolling, etc). Now that other editors are upping the ante in terms of scriptability (Sublime Text has an awesome Python API, too bad its closed-source), the reasons to stick with Emacs are rapidly decreasing for me.

Your problem has nothing to do with RSS. I have it, too, reading HN in the "normal" manner. My solution is, when I go to a story, to open two tabs: one with the story and one with the HN comments. Then I can switch between them.

Still, I would welcome a more automatic solution, but I don't know what it would look like. (The comment by bmelton on the Digg bar is quite correct.)
It's mind-blowing to realize just how much git and github have changed my expectations:

This is a protracted, bitter discussion about whether it would be ok to CREATE A BRANCH.
> When politicians/people in power have a "threat" that they are actually vulnerable to, they don't respect it and learn to co-exist. Instead they try to destroy, co-op, or otherwise remove it as a threat.

You're right, SOPA is an attempt to destroy the internet. This is a flat-out attack on the internet as we know it, and I bet the middle east uprising had something to do with it.
The real issue here is not so much the defamation, which happens all the time, but the nature of Google, which gives this lady a giant amplifier for no good reason.
Depends on the business structure, right?

If it is a corporate form, then the first person you hire is likely to be either an employee if the founder is (in the sense of an officer) or not (in the sense of an officer).
I hear a lot of people are crunching on CommonCrawl's data. It'll be interesting the type of stuff people come up with!

From my understanding male nurses not only get paid more, but have access to more options/promotions because they are male. So really, it's the opposite of women's experiences in STEM (http://rachelappel.com/stats-data-and-answers-as-to-why-ther...).
I'd probably spend less time on Hacker News. The percentage of programmers in the world who have actually finished SICP and CLRS is really small. I have copies of both sitting here next to me and have only finished a couple of sections. No reason to feel bad about it. Also, plenty of people have been out of work for over 2 months.

I also recommend getting outdoors and doing things besides worrying about whether you are the best hacker. Last year I was working with a small company with an uncertain future and was really anxious and worried the whole time. This year I quit and moved to Oregon. Since then, I have spent a lot of time visiting parks/waterfalls/the gorge, and lately the goal of being the richest/greatest/most elite programmer hasn't seemed very important.
you need to move to the Valley in order to launch a successful startup

pg didn't say that at YC NYC. He said he thought that the Valley was still better than New York, but that New York was now good enough that startups could succeed there. He also said he no longer tries to convince founders to stay in the Valley if they're planning on moving back to New York after YC.
They already throttle, to some extent. Bandwidth and speed caps, which may or may not apply to a Verizon-owned Netflix. Then things like preferential QoS come into the picture. Also see the peripheral dispute between Level3 and Comcast, due to the bandwidth imposed by Netflix.

I reckon things will get worse before they get better as more people start cutting all cords except for the Internet.

I don't need phone service, I don't need TV. But I need the Internet. I would prefer if my ISP were simply an ISP (then it could compete solely on the merits ISPs should be judged by), but I will not tolerate it if they try to interfere with my access by squeezing more dollars out of me for services I'd rather get elsewhere.
going to get down voted, but Groupon is based on Chicago not in in Bay Area (or as the author calls "ValleyWood")
I would say that's accurate.

Maybe it's because I type gmail.com far more often than google.com. In fact, I don't think I ever type google.com.

I probably make a couple dozen searches a day, but only spend around 30 minutes a day in the search engine. On the other hand, 99% of the time I have Gmail running.
Thank you.

No I didn't know about HN back then...the only reason I stayed in that job was because I had to pay for my education, I worked and went to school at the same time.

What do you mean by heavy metal toxicity?
Seeing "someone professional about your thoughts of suicide" is a good idea if the thoughts are very bad and pervasive and you are in danger to yourself or others, I think. But in the end they'll offer only two things: psychotherapy or psychotropic medication - is that a long-term, sustainable and smart solution?
Hmmm.... are we in the midst of a paradigm shift?

From what I've read, a woman staying at home and raising a family was at it's peak in the 1950s (please correct me if I'm wrong). Apparently in the 1920s, a lot more women were in the workforce, then it decreased, then increased during WW2, then decreased, then increased ever since the 1960-70s.

Since the 1960-70s, staying home and raising a family has been looked upon as the "lesser" option for women. If you weren't busting your ass in the corporate world, you were wasting your life and your talents.

I read an article that said 50% of HBS graduates who are women eventually quit the corporate world and stay home to raise kids (for at least a period of time).

Are we seeing a shift where focusing on raising a family is suddenly viewed as being more valuable? I hope so, because I personally feel (whether man or woman), that focusing your efforts on creating a great environment to raise kids is far more valuable (and has a bigger impact) than most professions.

I'm nervous the only thing good enough for me to pay for on the internet will go away. I will have to spend that $7 on coffee again, I guess.
Hi all, thanks for the replies. Good point on the whole "doing it alone is better than not at all" -- something I forgot to consider when thinking about my career decisions! :)
Repeated query parameters aren't "rarely utilized" -- look at how any sort of checkbox or other multi-select works.
