> " if they do not care, they have no interest in optimising their milage. The messaging is mostly wasted."

Right, and Tesla's messaging is not about efficiency. Their messaging has overwhelmingly been "holy shit this thing is fast! And green! And exclusive and the crowning achievement of our conquering of science and technology!"

Which isn't that different from traditional sports car marketing, except the green part.

Getting people to be more efficient does not necessarily mean selling efficiency to them and rallying them around it. CFLs and energy-efficient lighting has essentially become commonly as a fashion, as opposed to any significant increase in people's desire to be green. But I couldn't care less - if people are installing CFLs in their homes I don't really care how much they care about their electrical footprint.
maximum lifetime is obtained when you store them at around 66% charge at 4C, which is the temperature of your fridge, take them out ever few months and charge them, you can get less than 1% capacity degradation a year.
I've wanted to build a more generalized version of this in the past. Facebook does a poor job of reporting on many of their own API issues and it would be relatively simple to build a tool that called each API endpoint and validated that the results where correct and up to date.

Interestingly, Twitter forbids developers from doing this. In their API terms (https://dev.twitter.com/terms/api-terms) they have the following statement "You will not attempt or encourage others to...use or access the Twitter API for purposes of monitoring the availability, performance, or functionality of any of Twitter's products and services"

Who said that electric cars have to be about energy efficiency? To me the primary reason to move to electric are to ditch petroleum and its associated problems (pollution, oil spills, foreign energy dependence).

The way to the future is to convince people that new technology is better for them. If the message instead is "you need to give up things you like for the greater good," people will oppose you at every move, and rightly so; do you really want to live in a world where computer screens are just barely bright enough to see, where buildings are sweltering on hot days, freezing on cold days, showers are cold, and the speed limit is never higher than 55mph?
Very true. However, if you are going to pick and choose. Please, please, please, start with communication. Unsurprisingly, I don't know what to build for you if you can't tell me what you need. Face to face communication is the cheapest, most efficient form. Documentation, the most wasteful and expensive.

Now You Need Quora Credits To Ask Questions
Good article.

But I think that there is also another point to make. It's true that there is often space to be the one idea that delivers in a way that is easy enough to use for the general user to the point of having the chance to be the winning product. But I believe that that kind of answers from investors shows in general a pretty clouded judgement.

I think that when they respond like that, it means that they don't actually like the idea in the first place.

Otherwise, exactly "because" there is some other similar product around, that in general means that there is some level of market validation. And if it's possible to show that those companies are profitable, then it's likely, if they trust your team, that also your company will be profitable.

This should be enough, you don't necessarily need to convince them that you will kill them all, you just need to convince them that you will make money.

Then, after you convinced them, you can keep going with your goal of being the unique winner of that market.

One by one:

Hacked/stolen: anything I wouldn't want in the hands of criminals goes through ssl. If they've broken that, Google tracking me is the least of my worries.

Sold: I'm comfortable with advertisers being able to target me. If they've narrowed down their target market by videos viewed on motherless, I'd be damned curious to see the ads.

Subpoenaed/NSL'd: were I to engage in any activities that would give me trouble in the event of LE attention, I'd be doing it through TOR from a coffeeshop, on a throwaway netbook running Truecrypt with the juicy stuff in a hidden volume. That's not to suggest that only criminals need fear the security/justice apparatus, but if I were doing anything that could draw unwanted attention I'd take precautions.

Back when I was raiding with anon, before it had anything to do with political motivations, I was paranoid about how easily I could be doxed and took extreme measures to ensure I was unfindable. Now, I'm pretty open about most of my online activities. If knowing my interests lets Google provide better services, then they have my blessing. Should I decide to engage in activities that would run me afoul of powerful organizations, I'll take precautions.

You won't find many stronger proponents than I of the need for anonymous communication, but I don't extend that to all communication. I'm cool with getting fed ads in order to support the services I like, and if data collection means fewer ads or better services, them I'm on board.

The article contains a mistake - where it says "Don’t Copy Your Public Key Around" it really means "Don’t Copy Your Private Key Around".

The advice to use ForwardAgent is also dubious, at least without fully describing the implications - which is that if you log into a compromised host, that host can use your credentials to access other hosts.
Yes, and I've done that. Took longer than a couple of weeks though. Brand new battery in a MacBook that discharged then went in storage for a while (a half-year I think). The next time I opened it the battery was completely dead and wouldn't hold a charge.
>The point OP is making is that these SUV people fundamentally do not care about efficiency - if they do not care, they have no interest in optimising their milage. The messaging is mostly wasted.

I disagree. SUVs are a very common commodity in America, and there are many people whom acquired them for various practical reasons. I've had the same compact SUV since high school, over 10 years, and would love to 'upgrade' to an energy efficient electric car, I just can't afford it now, or any other car at this point in my career. Although I dream of the Model X, and think it's a great idea. I would rather take a train everywhere, but given America's infrastructure, currently a Model X is the next best thing.

Is there such thing as a "Startup Site?"
Since becoming a newcomer to the [internet] startup world about a year ago, I have soaked up endless amounts of information. But I have learned bits and pieces from hundreds of different sources. I already had a business background but that becomes irrelevant in many ways once you enter the tech world.

Is there a "startup site" that teaches you many of the most important aspects of building a new company online? I don't mean the programming, coding, design aspect. But something that would teach you or at least aggregate info that could be considered the most important elements to building a startup. I'm talking from idea conception to what a landing page should be and A/B testing all the way to pitching VC's or Angels.

Maybe even a site that used relevant information/perspective/opinion presented here on HN as advice and guidance but in an organized fashion...

Does anything like this exist?
I am a little underwhelmed by the calendar. 37signals do a great job of innovation in design and I was hoping for something a bit different.

It seems like there is a lot of noise on the calendar. A typical problem with this style of calendar are events that span multiple days. They take up a significant amount of space on all of the days in between, when they are not necessarily particularly relevant every day. For some of these events, the kickoff and end are the only relevant things, and placeholders at each end would do enough.

The main reasons for me to choose duplicity is the multiple protocol support. I've had so much issues in the past switching to other storage facilities only to have to completely change the backup process. Plus I'm using multiple storage sites for really important data.

Duplicity can be a bit finicky though, especially when it comes to cleaning up after itself, even more so if the backup was somehow interrupted.

in the presence of compromised hosts using ForwardAgent is basically analogous to copying your private key around! (somewhat)
It's a nice reply but IMHO it works only if your investors are (a subset of) your typical customer base. Do you think you can use the same approach if you're pitching a new service for, let's say wedding spouses, or even pregnant women, and you're in front of 5 alpha males?

That's arguable. I'm pretty sure there are many more ways to 'do it' which are both wrong, and have not been attempted.

For applications which deal with users, yes, but this is like telling NFS it needs to transmit permission bits in english. Computers do not need english languages to communicate with one other - only people do.

And since the data being communicated between the heartbeat client and server is computer-generated and automatic, "text" is not even not required, it is an unnecessary step in communication. Apache is implemented in C. C is good at accessing, copying, transmitting, and inspecting raw memory. It is not good at parsing and comparing strings. Adding text to a protocol nobody will ever interface with is adding an unnecessary layer which is not only more complex than my suggestion but is itself more prone to security flaws and bugs unless proper care is taken when parsing the strings.

Really I think this is about people's comfort levels. You feel more comfortable looking at a string and knowing what's in it. Either way will work; it doesn't matter how you skin this cat. But I think it's disingenuous to suggest that comparing raw bits is somehow more likely to blow up than comparing the raw bits after you parsed them from a string.
Cool dotfile compilation for developers
Mr.One
For a further clarification of a "multi-vendor" scenario, here's a hypothetical situation:

- an integrator knows the CIA, FBI, and successor to the KGB all need secure software services

- the integrator convinces two secure data centers, one in Reston, VA, and the other in Moscow, to host equivalent infrastructures

- the integrator puts together a suite of services consisting of: Oracle DB (backend store for some services); Microsoft SQL Server (backend store for others); AT&T network connectivity to/from Reston data center; Russian network connectivity to/from Moscow data center; SharePoint document repository; Microsoft Office suite of tools; document-management vendor software managing search, archival, secure role-based access to documents, automatic purging of documents after a given time where applicable; EMC networked storage; image-processing tools with plugin architecture; automated image-processing software from several small specialized shops to recognize military equipment, buildings, insurgent hideouts, etc.; bla bla bla bla

- the integrator puts in measuring tools everywhere to gather usage data: data transmission; storage used; DB activity; #-of-important-items-recognized-during-image-processing-runs; #-of-users-in-system-X; #-of-document-views; etc.

- the integrator applies billing policies for the entire stack, perhaps on a different basis per customer (e.g., CIA/FBI get large-volume discount price list; Syria's secret service gets small-fry high-cost pricing)

- large organizations will likely have (a) a central consulting group acting as a distributor to other departments (along with payments to integrator and income from other departments); (b) other departments that will buy from central consulting organization

- at the end of every month, each department/organization/consultant/integrator either: (a) gets income from their customers and downstream distributors; (b) pays someone upstream for their usage; or (c) both pays and gets some income

- in this case, the integrator (a) pays out to Oracle, Microsoft, EMC, data centers, etc., all on a per-use basis (of course, a flat monthly fee for any particular item is also "per-use" of a month); (b) receives incomes from its direct customers

- given adequate security the actors in this scheme need not ever know directly who their upstream or downstream is beyond a single level

Show HN: Chirps, an iPhone app for reading tweets with links on Twitter
Chirps is an iPhone app that let you read tweets with URL and focus on the content with a readability mode.

We've developed Chirps for several weeks and now we just launched 1.0 on App Store. PLEASE let us know if there is any we can do better.
I'm submitting this because of its similarity to Paul Graham's essay "See Randomness," http://paulgraham.com/randomness.html, and I think they came to the same conclusions independently of each other.
I believe you meant to say that the duck wins easily if they both move at the same speed.
Chirps shows you only tweets with links, and presents them in a clean and un-cluttered format, so you can truly enjoy reading on Twitter, distraction-free.

We've developed Chirps for several weeks and now we just launched 1.0, PLEASE let us know if there is anything we can do better and we'll keep working on it.
I envision this being used a lot more if you can embed it in the sidebar (perhaps via RES?).
Just conjecture on my part, but this seems like it will help keep the Quora ecosystem content quality high. Any Quora user that is even slightly active will always have enough credits to use the site without having to think about them, but people who just ask, maybe not always good questions, and don't continue in any meaningful way might hesitate before posting the 5th iteration of the same question.

the real killer feature of credits though is being able to get access and attention from people you don't know. It's easy enough to ignore emails from strangers or at replies on twitter, but getting asked to answer on Quora gives a bigger social obligation. Like "hey not only does this guy want to know my opinion, but he thinks lots of other people will, too".

I think Charlie and Adam are building a great platform and great community at Quora. Bravo.
