I do the opposite. I have to divest a lot of stuff to go through the screener. On the other side, I note how far through the current screening the staffer is, and either speed up or slow down my collection based on that (belts can be quite fiddly if you are determined!). Just make sure you never look directly at them to give the game away.

It's only failed the once, when one screener tagged me and let heaps of people go before nabbing me. Apart from that, it seems to work okay.

I'm not sure I care for the style, but the point is still valid -- that it's hard to separate skill from luck. There's so much noise in the market. So many people are busy flipping coins, is it too hard to believe that successful people are simply good coin flippers (ie. lucky)? Of course, a certain minimum of skill is required. How much skill... very debatable.
How to convert Repeating Decimals Into Fractions 
It is fairly easy to take a fraction and turn it into a repeating decimal by hand. This is simple division.<p>But being able to go in the other direction and turn a repeating decimal into a fraction would be a cool party trick.<p>Let us take "0.454545454545..." to illustrate the trick.<p>Simply take the number that repeats, in this case 45, and divide it by however many 9's as there are digits in the original number. Since 45 is 2 digits, then divide 45 by 99.<p>Now, 45/99 simplifies down to 5/11.<p>So, "0.454545454545..." = 5/11

I think that selection bias does a lot to discredit any conclusions drawn from the data. The data is drawn from facebook profiles. The founder of the plumbing fittings factory down the street from me is a lot less likely to have a facebook account than a web startup founder. Moreover just because I say I am a founder/CEO or that I have a phd/mba/xyz in my profile does not mean it is true...

It's hard to say how many terrorist events security actually stops. Raising the bar reduces attempts, and who knows how many there otherwise would have been? It's similar to when police departments get more bodies pounding the pavements, as the mere presence of authority helps keep things in check.

Certainly there's a sweet spot and the TSA is on the far side of it, but it's not as simple as looking at a number.
I do understand the chain of command associated with the DOJ. What this article implies as well as your response is that the Whitehouse should be taking an active role in any matter of criminal investigation.

Because the DOJ falls under the executive branch to fulfill its duties, doesn't mean that it's at the behest of the Whitehouse, nor should it. It's very disconcerting that anyone would think it should be.

Anomalously good statistics like that are almost certainly due to under-reporting. I don't really believe, as the infographic tacitly claims, that the only suicides at Foxconn were those that made the newspapers.

Now, I will admit that Apple appears to be getting singled out here. And, especially if Apple gets Foxconn to reform their safety, they could even become one of the better places in China. But there's a lot of room to improve here.

How we managed the task of implementing trial mode in the PVS-Studio
Choosing and changing the model of trial mode is one of the most relevant and widely discussed tasks for many software developers. It is easy to make a model for some programs and difficult for others. And some people are haunted by the question: "Have we made everything right?" The task of choosing a trial-model is relevant to us, PVS-Studio developers, as well. We decided to share some of our ideas regarding this subject and tell you about a new alternative we have invented. We hope that our arguments and some ideas will be helpful to other developers too.

No - it's not bad at all as long as you have some minimal understanding about what you are doing.

Graylisting + Delayed SMTP prompt + Blacklists + Whitelists works pretty well for filtering incoming spam.

For outgoing mail you just need to make sure that you're not sending mail from a dialup IP range, or some other IP range included in common blacklists. It also helps to register on one of the more common whitelists that are available for free. And of course you need a valid reverse lookup - many mailservers don't accept mails from hosts without them.

Help With a Marriage Green Card from an Immigration Lawyer in Seattle  
One way in which you may obtain permanent US residence in the form of a green card is through marriage to a US citizen. The process of obtaining a green card is not as simple or straightforward as one might expect, however, and you may need assistance from an immigration lawyer in Seattle in order to successfully become a US citizen after marriage.
Even if it there was a 50% chance of being picked, to have it happen (I've been counting) 8 times in a row so far is highly, unlikely -- 3 in a thousand. At 10% we're talking millions-to-1 that it's purely random.

I just don't buy it. Humans are involved. Humans are not cryptographic-grade RNGs.

You did not respond to his point that the suicide rate of people who jumped to their deaths is unlikely to represent the entire number of suicides. I tend to agree with him.

Given that someone is posting an infographic here that appears to tacitly claim that the few workers who jumped represent the entire list of suicides at Foxconn, you'll forgive me if I want to examine the data sources and know exactly how the reporting mechanisms work.

Because when I see how anomalously low it is compared to the suicide rate pretty much everywhere else, exactly one thing springs to mind: under-reporting.
Sabi Wellness Products By Yves Béhar
Yes, the real world can be distasteful at times. I spent years refusing to play the game; preferring to stay strictly idealistic about ability and hard work paving the way. It got me nowhere fast as an entrepreneur. The minute I stopped fighting against how things actually work, success came calling.

I still don't like the notion that your connections can get you the right opportunities radically faster than your ability, but that will always be how the world works. Marc Andreessen would not be what he is today without Jim Clark (the gatekeeper).

People are social beings, and that's the root of the issue. The networks you form, give you radical advantages. Half of success, in my opinion, is your ability, work ethic and willingness to seize opportunity; the other half is who you know.

Most meaningful jackpots in life are guarded by gate keepers. If you want to succeed, far more often than not you're going to need help, and you're going to have to give someone else a cut of the action. Others are inclined to help you once you make them personally invested, that's obvious. People are also more inclined to trust and work with people in their networks - trust by established association. Works the same way with that little piece of paper, a degree, that gets you the stellar job.

Silicon Valley is supposedly a meritocracy. Try getting a meeting with, a contact with, a phone call with, or an email response from - Ron Conway (for example). I don't care how badass of an engineer you are. You can't get anywhere near him without a referral from someone else (the who you know part playing its role).

No, it indicates that a complex economy takes time to develop because so many structures therein rely on each other.

Are you suggesting that if a billion Chinese were to be transplanted to the USA tomorrow they would all find good paying jobs? Where would the infrastructure to support all this come from? Now add to this the fact China doesn't even have the economic infrastructure that the USA does.

I don't see any exploitation here only gradual growth and development.

By your logic I assume you believe Africa needs to be exploited for the benefit of the Chinese?

"But when you are older, you probably call your children the most, whose genders are uncorrelated with yours."

Unless you are female, which is the salient point of the article. Mothers show a gender bias towards their daughters, whereas middle-age men don't appear to have a gender bias.

Figure 1a (best friend) is basically symmetrical: gender bias of the best friend is opposite sex. The bias peaks for women at 27 and for men at 32, gradually decreasing until the best friends for both are slightly female-biased in their 70s.

In Figure 1b (second-best friend), the 2nd-best friend for 20-something males is another male. The bias gradually declines until by 40 his second-best friend is 50/50 male/female.

But for second-best friends, "women show a striking reversal" from same-sex to opposite-sex. A 20-something female's 2nd-best friend is also female, but it strongly reverses towards males (peaking in her late 40s).

If my interpretation (of their interpretation) is correct, these graphs are showing that a female's best friend is initially her husband, but he is gradually replaced by her daughter: "the younger (25-year) peak for 50- year-old men is half that for women and shows a more even sex balance, whereas that for women is strongly biased in favour of female alters (presumably, daughters)". The husband, in turn, falls from 1st-best friend to 2nd-best friend (replacing the formerly female one).

"Finally, fourth, our results provide strong evidence for the importance of female matrilineal relationships in human social organisation. There has been a tendency to emphasise the importance of male-male relationships in an essentially patrilineal form of social organisation as defining human sociality [20], but our results tend to support the claim that mother-daughter relationships play a particularly seminal role in structuring human social relationships, as has been suggested by some sociological studies [21]."

Very, very well said. Your comment is 100% clear thinking. And that Coppola interview is one of the better interviews with a director, or an artists for that matter, that I have every read.

Maybe it's just that you and FFC are saying what I want to hear. But I don't think so. I think you are both spot on.

Alas, these established monopolies will not go away quietly without a fight. They will sue, and they will sue again. Eventually the lawsuits will be futile.

They cannot sue every potential competitor out of existence. They can only make a few examples and hope it scares all the others.
(from the linked site) I find the notion that a phrase as general as 'responsive web design' could be considered 'coined' in 2010, and could be considered to have such a narrow meaning (i.e. you can't be 'responsive' without a fluid grid). A search on the phrase from Jan 2000 until Jan 2009 returns more than 16 million results.

It probably was using a bayesian filter of some sort. There are many, I use bogofilter because my email app comes with it, and there is HNer jgc's popfile.

Actually setting up a multi-user SMTP and IMAP server on Linux is straightforward if you've done it before, or it is here-be-dragons stuff if you haven't. (Your distro might configure it all up for you prepackaged, or you could be in for a lot of reading.) Integrating the bayesian filter is probably the easy part.

If it is only for you, it is perhaps easier to integrate it with your email app rather than at the server level. Popfile will do that.

Zsh was never part of a commercial Unix, so I suspect you are thinking of Ksh. As far as I can tell, Zsh has always been free software: the earliest version I could find used the GPL, but it now uses something more MIT-like.

Bash is probably more widely used because it was available earlier than Zsh, and because it was the "official" shell of the GNU project (better marketing).

We've used <i> for icons before. Main reason we started doing it, I seem to recall, was that we needed some sort of element there to make the spritesheeting work easily, and a lone empty <i> is (a) short, (b) extremely devoid of meaning which might be added to it by browsers/readers, and (c) easy to remember when writing markup as i-for-icon.

Quotes for Entrepreneurs (January 2012)
> In-house Tier-1 support is a luxury they can't afford.

You're only looking at the cost side of the equation. The question isn't "what does good support cost," it's "does good support generate enough value that users will pay for it."

As somebody who has paid for Flickr premium for years, I signed up because they delivered a lot of value. That included innovative features and a great relationship with the community. Their feature flow has been weak for years; if they screw up the community relationship via shitty support, then I'm certainly done with them.

No matter how many MBAs try this approach, you can't cut your way to a better business.
98% of bootstrap's documentation is about usage of the generated bootstrap CSS, which requires all kinds of presentational markup.

There's a solution for that: use the LESS source. Mixin the various bootstrap classes into the styles you write for your clean, semantic markup. It's a nicer way to work, and it permits removal of almost all the presentational "bootstrap" classes from your markup. With some thoughtfully-structured markup, you can even do away with wrapper divs in many instances.

This isn't without some sharp edges—you have to grasp what the various moving pieces of bootstrap do, and what different mixins you must apply to achieve the desired effect, but it's a cleaner/more powerful approach IMO.

To be clear, I'm glad about the CSS-only approach too because it enables non-designers to get over the suck threshold quickly. Using the LESS is more work at first but it pays dividends in the long run.
I dont see any reason to follow the mvc pattern slave-like. I mean as long as the framework you use gives you the abstraction you need to prevent DOM soup you are fine.

It all boils down to taste of coding style, fundamentalism etc.
