You aren't still growing, so the binge drinking can't mess up your development processes. You have more body mass, so a given amount of alcohol will cause less of an increase in your BAC.
Same story here. I wish there was more music that sounded like them. Particularly more music that sounded like Dorset Perception.
I think it must also have something to do with H1-B workers _and_ young workers being cheaper.

If you hold the valve vertically and pour water through the wrong side, water will eventually start to fall from the other side when all those cavities inside the valve get overflown --- is that correct?
I fear you are confusing positive with normative claims, even if your highly doubtful positive claim is true. How do you make the citizens of a given state better off on average by preventing them from engaging in mutually voluntary associations with whomever they want?

When you read that San Jose is one of the fastest growing cities in the US, do you conclude that San Jose will soon be a desirable place to live and do business, or that undeserving foreigners from other states are "taking San Joseans' jobs?"
I still own bitconjurer.org, there's a misconfiguration of some kind which needs to be tracked down.
Sometimes I am surprised to find I am the only straight edge hacker I know. Most of the time though I just don't care. So while I totally concur with the article I fail to see how this parses as hacker news?
I think I've have 3 beers in my entire life.... I've just never understood the fascination with it. It all tastes gross

That's a rather strong conclusion to draw from having tasted at most three different beers (and I wonder if they were all that different... situations where people typically feel pressured to drink aren't known for the high quality of the beer on hand).
The lady’s husband, a semiconductor engineer, has been unemployed for three years, yet people in his field are being brought in on H-1Bs. She doesn’t think this makes any sense.

My nephew, an avid basketball player, has been unemployed for three years, yet the NBA is bringing in basketball players from other countries!

This article makes the incorrect assumption that if two people have the same job title, they must have the same skills. I was initially surprised that a "leading authority on H-1B visas" would make this mistake, but it turns out he is a professor rather than someone with any experience in the software industry, which explains why his arguments are driven by statistics without any understanding of how the industry works.
He stated that he was conflicted on the subject. He also explained that he came during an enormous boom period (1980s Wall Street), and definitely did not take a job away from an American.
You're completely right for some people. But alot of people think that fun can't be had without alcohol. And its catchy title. But your right, it could say simply "You don't need alcohol to have fun"
I received the dreaded text from AT&T at around 2GB of use. I have an unlimited plan, and believe that it should be "unlimited" without any throttling. I am upset about this situation, but feel a bit helpless.

I applaud the comments and the post. Perhaps enough outrage will spark a revolution.
Maybe not what the gp meant, but 20-80 lbs might make you better equipped. 10 years of "wisdom" hopefully helps too.
This is actually a pretty good indicator that integrating PGP in a usable "it just works" fashion might be a really good thing to do these days. If the question is why are you allowing google the ability to violate your privacy, the solution of running your own mail server is only valid to the extent that we acknowledge the current reality that the vast majority of people do not use encryption or signing for email correspondence.

How about a simple sign / encrypt / forward service for untrusted (ie, pretty much everything) hosted email accounts that takes all incoming unsigned/unencrypted mail and at least encrypts it before delivering it to your untrusted mail server? Of course then the issue is how do you prove that you're any more trustworthy than google or any other party, but it's an interesting problem to consider.

The whole post is less about drinking and more about finding the ability to have an amazing time, any time, owned by your mental ability. If you can do that, and you don't use alcohol to get there, then that's awesome and I'm stoked for you. The post was written for people who do party hard and use alcohol to be happier/more social/funny etc.

Phone numbers aren't exposed via the Facebook API under any circumstance. For a long time it was the same with emails, including when Scoble wrote that script, but now you can get a user's email by specifically asking for that information via the permissions API.
This looks great! I have a couple of questions!

I am considering applying as a mentor for an open-source project I maintain. The project - an Android app - has 30,000+ users, but the development team is basically me and a handful of folks who have submitted patches or are willing to mentor. Is this too "small-potatoes?"

I wasn't able to find a link for what the actual application will entail. Where can I find that?

Any tips, thoughts, or advice for people who have previously administered or mentored a project - particularly for small groups?
I love the idea, but I am left not knowing what to do next. It ends with a bunch of motivational stuff, give me direct challenges! some concrete action steps and you have yourself a full blogpost article thing thats awesome and can really change the status quo
The title is probably more link-baity then I really intended... and I'm sure a better writer could have some up with something that captured interest without polarizing people.
I think with my privacy tools installed its only Facebook that has any tangible data against me. Linkedin would be next.

Google+ I'm afraid serves no purpose for me, few of my friends use it, and everything else doesn't require an account to read... so I don't see the point in having an account. Everything else is blocked so poor old goole gets nothing, not even text ad tracking.

The people with real data about me are visa and my bank, they know everything I do inside and out.
For a lot of people, it's not a false dichotomy; there is no middle ground. And I'm not necessarily talking about alcoholism either (though that qualifies); the insidious thing about alcohol is that it clouds your judgement and makes abuse more likely. So you've had a few drinks and you're having fun, hanging out with friends, feeling pretty good. And then everyone is ordering another round, which is almost certainly a bad idea from a logical perspective. But you're not thinking logically anymore, so you do too.

Think about it like this: how many people who drink have been drunk to the point of throwing up (and subsequently hungover) more than once or twice? Most people who drink would answer yes. And that makes zero sense; what logical person would choose to experience that misery more than once? And yet many do it almost every weekend. Because alcohol screws up your brain.
I would love to go deeper on this. I don't have the time right now to write what would be a short book length piece, but appreciate the motivation to do it.

Most of software development is making CRUD apps, integrating APIs, and other tedious but non-complex stuff like that.

Isn't that sort of like saying that most of the restaurant business is flipping burgers? Just because something is more common, that doesn't mean you won't be able to move up the food chain a little after 40 years of programming. Companies still have plenty of hard problems to solve in network performance, hard drive performance, UI architecture, cryptography....
Socially speaking, I find it's easier to see gray. When you run into somebody in a social situation who knows you see him as heinously immoral, or maybe just a little bit of a sleazebag, there's tension. The tension is likely to get to him, causing him to needlessly bring up the issue in some contrived way. At that point, there's a magic phrase to completely banish the tension: "Well, yeah, shit's complicated." Suddenly you can be best friends.

I learned this trick when I was a strict vegetarian. I wasn't eager to confront people about their meat-eating, but when you don't eat meat, people pretty quickly jump to the conclusion that you think they're morally wrong to eat meat. The tension bothers them, so they bring it up in some awkward way. When my girlfriend's father did that (and later at one point her boss, at a company barbecue) I didn't want to get into the details, so I just said, "Well, it's a complicated issue." It was an honest statement, and I really had no idea exactly where I stood on eating meat, but I was so impressed with how completely it put them at ease and averted all conflict that I stored that memory away. Since then, I have used it many times dishonestly to avoid conflict with people who had power over me, my friends, or my family. Seeing gray is a "get out of conflict free" card.

I think the only time it takes bravery to see gray areas is when everybody else sees black and white. Otherwise, the "ability" to see gray helps you paper over disagreements and maintain valuable relationships with people.

Also, it usually isn't correct to think that a person avoids addressing gray areas by being black-and-white on a certain question. I am single, and for me, sex is an endless gray area. I have a conservative Christian friend who doesn't see any gray at all when it comes to premarital sex, but not because he's stupid or unthoughtful. He has to deal with gray areas in other places, such as divorce and state-mandated immunization against HPV. (His daughter will be immunized, and he thinks that's okay. He has friends who think it's not, and who are shocked by the fact that he doesn't resist in some way.) RMS sees gray areas in the use of non-free technology, and he makes concessions to reality. He's proud of his ability to use a completely free computer system, and he understands that it isn't practical for everybody, and he knows that even his success is limited to a very small portion of the technology that contributes to his existence. That's a gray area! I can understand where he's at. When I was a vegetarian, and now as a near-vegetarian, I know some people might think I'm being black and white to subsist on beans and potato salad at a catered barbecue lunch, but I think I'm being plenty "gray" by eating beans from a barbecue joint without asking why they taste so darned good. Everyone's thinking is gray someplace; the perception of "black-and-white thinking" is created by an observer focusing in on a certain place where he expects to find gray and is surprised to find black or white instead.
As the above commenter said: going without permits may work in a residence, but not in a club. Especially one that already has some unfriendly neighbors (read his blog). They will complain, and you'll be liable to get your liquor license pulled. End of story.

Another variable between European teenage drinking vs USA teenage drinking is driving.

European teens do drive - but it's not fashionable.

USA teens _have_ to drive. The party is spread out (multiple locations in suburbia) and the vehicle is the symbol of empowerment.

Obviously, mixing heavy or inexperienced drinking with driving is a recipe for death.
I have nothing against this. That's why I said it was awesome they really appreciated the taste of alcohol.
It probably isn't the alcohol, then. If it's the beer you find unreasonably offensive, it may be that you are a supertaster. I am one, and I've had the same experience you describe: enjoying wine and spirits, but unable to form any sort of friendship with beer.

I actually react most strongly to spinach -- once as a child, I gagged on a perfectly good spinach leaf and threw up in my napkin right in the middle of a restaurant on best behavior! But I also definitely have the sense that what I taste when I sample coffee and beer cannot possibly be what other people are tasting.

"disinterested" means impartial or unbiased.

"uninterested" means not interested.

I wasn't going to comment on this (and thereby be a grammardouche) but I've seen the word quoted/used in the comments so many times that I thought people might actually not know this!
Why do you need PGP?
It's personal. It's private. And it's no one's business but yours. You may be planning a political campaign, discussing your taxes, or having an illicit affair. Or you may be doing something that you feel shouldn't be illegal, but is. Whatever it is, you don't want your private electronic mail (E-mail) or confidential documents read by anyone else. There's nothing wrong with asserting your privacy. Privacy is as apple-pie as the Constitution.
Just so you know, I appreciated your comment (since that expression can be taken either way). Maybe someone didn't like the fact that it was in Russian.
Yeah, even I keep looking at distrowatch from time to time and I agree that some time ago many distros were showing growing popularity. However all the distributions going down in popularity at the same time surprised me.
Ugh. So many parents in the US believe to the core of their selves that their children are child-emperors, too rare and delicate to suffer the torture of being denied a single whim.

Not to get too "get off my lawn", but when I was a kid, kids didn't rule public spaces the way they do today. Many parents not only won't tell their kids "no" under any circumstances, they freak out if anybody else asks their precious spawn to stop kicking them on airplanes, running into their legs with shopping carts, or shooting BB guns at their home's windows.

Also, get off my lawn.
Treat your employer like an employee.

If they're underperforming and not living up to what you want from them, fire them and find someone else who will.

I don't understand why employees are expected to just act helpless and be held hostage because someone gave them a job. If you're good in your field (especially in an area like tech), you should have no trouble finding other jobs at your fair market value and keeping your employer honest.
I did generalize there, and in my head I was speaking to the original audience of the post which is people who like to party... and to that audience I think those words hold truer. There are obviously a lot of connoisseurs of wine & drink here who took my words directed at their casual consumption.

And definitely wasn't trying to suggest that not drinking was a slippery slope to hell.

"... I'm glad that Facebook protects me from someone trying to do that with the data I give them. ..."

I would have thought on HN people, would intuitively recognise "The illusion of anonymity" ~ http://www.flickr.com/photos/bootload/4186206797/ on Facebook and social software in general. Any data you supply, can be bit toggled from private to public at the server.
It doesn't show anything for my site either :( Life is difficult! (http://inst.eecs.berkeley.edu/~tikhon) And my page is fully standards compliant. (Yours might be as well--I didn't check.)
The biggest thing that companies miss when they're building SaaS applications is that the network fucking matters. I'm talking from a internet-connectivity perspective. The view here is that you can take any ol' 'enterprise' ISP and put your servers on it, and you'll be good to go.

Unfortunately, no two ISPs are equal, which often times, forces you to purchase from both. TCP implementations of OS's today have been tuned for the late 90s, which requires dives under the hood to tune them for today's TCP.

When your application performance is pegged on the network the, most people say just put static content on a CDN - and that works. But for dynamic content, most people think you're screwed. While you can't main any gigantic gains on it, there are a few things you can do for speed: TCP tuning, compression, path optimization, and pipelining.
Fully detecting a scene's lighting is a complex problem. This paper from last year was quite interesting: "Rendering Synthetic Objects into Legacy Photographs" - http://kevinkarsch.com/publications/sa11.html

This combined with existing techniques of constructing 3D geometry out of videos could work really well if say you wish to construct a game level out of a real scene.

Raytracing complex scenes on a hand-held device at interactive frame rates is still quite a bit off. But techniques where a lot of the calculations can be done offline are possible to use today (radiosity, etc).
"Revolting" doesn't begin to describe it. Families losing their homes due to institutionalized fraud? How can these people sleep at night?

Transparent caching is part of what makes http so great. Security is relative, you can authenticate content without encrypting it, if there is nothing sensitive about the content.

The authentication can happen external to the http or spdy transaction as well.

This is not entirely true. A Facebook application can get an email address of an authorized user by requesting it [1] (in the authorization dialog, the user can choose to send the application either the email address they signed up with Facebook for, or a proxied Facebook email address). There is currently no way to use the Graph API to retrieve your friends' email addresses.

[1] To do this, your application has to request the email permission. There is no equivalent friends_email permission. See http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/api/permission...
ProCredit Bank Georgia hacked by RetnOHacK | The Hacker News (THN)
Assuming that is true, where do non-white non-asian (= black/hispanic?) students of elite colleges go, if they're not going to elite employers? Do they fail to graduate? Do they go into the public sector? Do they start more businesses? Do they go to non-elite employers?
If the vast majority of jobs are in burger flipping, and the limited number of elite chef positions are generally filled by a small subset of candidates (e.g. top schoolers) who were on the elite chef track from the get go, then yes, it's exactly like saying that.

You don't really "work your way up" from years and years of CRUD apps and API gluing to hard CS. In fact, if you get a CS degree and don't go straight into hard CS, you will forget most everything you learned in a few years, not to mention miss out on years of focused practice.
