If you want to be creative, be smart and well-informed. Being alone is primarily important for avoiding interruptions which destroy your train of thought. Being creative requires combining ideas: well, you can't combine them if you have never heard of them. So learn a lot! And learn good facts and proper scientific (ie disprovable) theories, not stupid, useless opinions and religious/political beliefs invented by overblown authorities. Learn everything and believe nothing. Then go create.

Sorry to say it, but your comment is one of the dumbest things I've read in HN.

You have an objection to the study because immigrants are categorized together? Then you choose Mexican immigrants out of a hat and then assume the study is about that specific group. On what basis? Are you saying the sources cited in the group only care a specific subset of immigrants? Or are you alleging that the study must only be about an immigrant group that you have certain preconceptions about?

And that the hell does FoxConn being in Mexico have to do with American immigrant work ethic? You are just not making any sense at all.

Get your ideas and facts straight before posting. Google is your friend for getting facts straight. You cannot have an immigrant study reflect Canadian immigrants because Canadian immigrants make up such a small proportion of all immigrants.
It's a thought experiment. It's not impossible to imagine a perfected sensory deprivation tank where you do not hear yourself move or breathe. The other stimuli are, from what I understand, hallucinations, and as such are irrelevant to the experiment.

> As long as you're going to recreate memories indistinguishable from reality, you'll further need to create sensory input indistinguishable from reality. At which point you've simulated the entire encounterable universe

Not really, after all you only need to simulate the universe at the human level of the perception, which means you can ignore most of the computational complexity of simulating the actual universe.

The only 'problem' ACTA, SOPA and PIPA actually solve is that outdated business models are increasingly unprofitable.

Any of the other problems around the IP regime - for example, the extremely destructive effects of software patent abuse, or the unchecked power of large organizations to issue fraudulent copyright takedowns - are not remotely addressed by any of these bills or by past bills.

Engaging with these people isn't helpful because they're in complete denial about reality. It may be true that the vast majority of political forces and financial forces are aligned in favor of stuff like ACTA and SOPA, but that's not because the bills solve a real problem; it's because those bills make rich people richer, so naturally they're going to spend money to pass them.

Haha, looks like the MAFIAA war machine has been working pretty effectively that even HN readers are starting to believe it!
You have no facts to prove your claim. You don't know whether or not a) the management clearly communicated to the staff; b) the new system is actually more efficient; c) the headwaiter isn't actually the manager that put the system there in the first place; d) this event happened "in the long run", after working with the system as it should after which stakeholders decided that it's actually not efficient, etc etc.

You can blame management and bad communication all you want but the fact is that what seems rational and efficient for some people (management) is irrational and inefficient for others (the person actually doing the work).
Finally a black theme! I'm sold.
I struggled with Git on Windows for months, I really don't remember all the problems I had right now, but here are some:

Proxy support:
Setting up git to work under a proxy was a pain. I had to switch my proxy configuration all the time due to the company firewall and I remember had lots of throttle making Git recognize it.

Integration with other tools:
Since the windows Git requires a custom shell, its harder to integrate with other tools E.g. I had to track down and fix issues like this: https://github.com/fschulze/mr.developer/pull/53

SSH:
It required putty pageant! the horror! getting SSH to work under a proxy was impossible.

Mercurial is superior because it's easier to port to other platforms, probably because its written in Python instead of C and shell scripts. Mercurial doesn't requires a MinGW hack in order to run.

Try adding a semicolon in your source files immediately after your includes:

There's a long-standing bug with pre-compiled headers and code regeneration that (apparently) Microsoft has never fixed. There were (still are?) so many obscure issues with PCH that I just disabled it altogether.

check out Good Old Games ( gog.com ).

They have figured these additional costs out - they sell old games (ans some new games - mostly their own ) on-line like Steam, but without any DRM, and with nice installer and preconfigured dosbox when needed. So you can redownload the game any time, and because there's no DRM - you can make copies/use the game on many computers, etc.

So the cost in four currencies is sth like
5-10 USD + 0.1 $T + 0.1 $P + 0 $I

Many, many years ago I felt the same about GUI driven IDEs (Visual Basic/Studio, Eclipse, etc). I remember learning woodwork at school and the teacher saying we wouldn't even be allowed in the same room as a power tool until we had shown competence with handheld tools. In the hands of the clueless IDEs allow aimless fiddling to eventually converge on a result and thus shorten development time by sacrificing code quality. IDEs caught on anyway, I think I was right to be concerned. I think you are right to be concerned about Hype but there is nothing you can do about it.

That's just one of pollan's "rules". Taken out of context, I agree. Put it in context with the others where he suggests, for example "Stay out of the middle of the supermarket; shop on the perimeter of the store. Real food tends to be on the outer edge of the store near the loading docks, where it can be replaced with fresh foods when it goes bad" (or...to paraphrase...eat fresh foods)...and it's fine.

I also think his "rules" can be somewhat hyperbolic. It's not "anything" with more than 5 ingredients....as, for example, a great hot n sour soup has WAY more than that. Holistically his rules would be...understand what you're eating..eat less processed food...eat mostly plants, etc.
Credit card will soon become obsolete anyway, but that's another story.

I don't see how you could make use of a CC number that would always be declined. The point is it has to have been active and used successfully to have been recorded somewhere and then stolen.

If you are talking "dummy" number then why should any bank make those numbers public? They would be identified anyway at the moment they are used.

CC fraud is a problem, but I think you probably need to know a lot more about how the transactions take place and what the industry is already doing (from the inside). It's not something that would be widely publicised by any specific bank, because people would close their accounts in droves.

You don't follow how if people coming here to work is seen as a problem, to help make jobs in their country helps us?

I have a problem with anything that says all/most of any kind of people are the same.

Immigrants are not one kind of people with one kind of mentality. Neither are natives.

Oh and I assumed the study was about Mexican immigrants because if you actually read the website, the study is from the Pew Hispanic Center and specifically talks about about Texas immigration. You're welcome to your opinion but I don't appreciate the personal attack.
Rails was easy to use/learn in 2006/2007, and, coming from a background of 5 years of writing Java web apps, it was vastly easier than doing that mess.
I understand the point about needing time alone to think things over. However I worry that many will use this as an excuse to stay locked up in their office making "The next big thing" without consulting or talking to potential customers/users. It's important to keep in mind that Woz would not have started Apple if Steve had not been pushing him to do it and gone out and done the legwork. If you read Jessica's book Woz said that he would have been perfectly happy working at HP his dream was to work at HP not to build Apple.
Something looked wrong a bit:

And the companies selling computer systems (of all kinds,
in many businesses) usually push the possibilities to get
such data as big advantages with their system. But is it
worth the effort? In many cases, a headwaiter would
probably know most of what really matters anyway from
experience or rule-of-thumb.

Management, not headwaiter buys software, and results of this software most likely used by management to do right decisions. And what if headwaiter leave company, hit by a bus, abducted by aliens? It is better to have data in computer harddrive/tape/dvd.

Although, this is not an excuse for making something 4 clicks instead of one (i.e. to replace crossing something with a pen)

I don't understand this "the internet needs to be tamed" perspective that people approaching from this angle always come from. How does this make any sense at all? Is there something actually, demonstrably wrong with the current anarchic structure of internet governance?

Or is the answer to that simply "We don't have powers we would like to have to better our own position" from entrenched real world political blocs?
BTC-Hospital Saves Me
The GP here was poorly worded. It's not that browsers don't support PUT and DELETE (they do, and it's used all the time vie XMLHttpRequest), it's that HTML doesn't support those verbs for forms.

You're right in that a "client is a client", and the API doesn't (or shouldn't) care.
What I dislike about the article (apart from the sensationalism he admits to in the first paragraph) is how he is is trying to equate current state with "Wild West" and heavy regulation and censorship with "civilized modern age".

But that's not how it works, at least according to most people who know something about the Internet. ACTA is not "inevitable civilizing of uncivilized land", turning Wild West to Modern Age, it is something turning Modern Age to Orwellian dystopia.

That's why arguments like "if you don't want ACTA, you have to propose something yourself" won't work on people who don't buy the "OMG IT'S SO SAVAGE, IT NEED CENSORSHIP" meme.

I think your title isn't correct. You said as much yourself - you don't hate the startup, you hate the people, and your analysis is correct, it's the break-up that's tainting things.

Are you the boss? Can the thing run without you for a while? Take a break. Make a decision: stay or go. Come back and implement it.
Truecrypt do not allow this (yet).

There is another cool utility - encfs. It have magic option "--anykey". Basically, it stops verification of key hash and always tries to decrypt with key you provided. Thing is - it will show you only correctly decrypted files. So, by using different passwords you essentially create layers of encrypted files, where each layer is decrypted by different password..

Truth is - if something did not decrypt, LEO will see it, but I do not see how they could prove you provided wrong password intentionally, and not at some point changed password to new one, and old been forgot. This essentially will happen when you use different password - you will receive no error and empty container where you can start add personal files..
Easy to use and easy to learn are too very distinct things.
Does anyone remember a thread of comments on HN a year or two ago where a guy was placing bets that he could totally swing your opinion on giving a sentient AI freedom? Supposedly he convinced everyone and won every bet but no-one revealed what he did and I thought this was going to be a posting of one of those conversations at first ;-)
“I would love to say Offbeatr was a totally original idea, it’s not.”

Who cares? Why is this even relevant? Originality does not matter in business.

Google was not the first search engine. Facebook wasn't the first social network. And if the competitive advantage of your business relies on having an original idea (not saying that kickstarter is this type of business), then you don't have a defensible business model.
What's a good solution for me then? Incorporate in the US?
You paint a rather rosy picture of UK carriers. Whilst you are right with regards to phone availability, while contracts and PAYG are still centred primarily around voice minutes and text messages, we are far from 'dumb pipe' territory.
Which is the advantage (to users) of the self-appointed benevolent dictator for life model.

What do users want? Something that's cheap, easy to use and unlimited.

What do the carriers want? Something that's branded to them and customised so they can upsell features. (Which requires an ecosystem they can customise, such as BtG.)

What do the platform vendors want? Ecosystem control so they can be the gatekeeper selling apps and ads.

I hate to say this as a long-term Mozilla fan with a strong distaste for iOS, but the most user-friendly model appears to be tied to platform vendors, not carriers. They are the ones with an incentive to maximise service; carriers, OTOH, have demonstrated a very noticeable tendency to salami-slice everything. Want your apps? Sorry, got to go through your network's app store. (And devs, you now have to negotiate with hundreds of vendors, each with different rules.) Want to use more than Facebook and YouTube? Sorry, that's the 'enhanced web' package. (Some have already done this.) Want tethering? Sure, that'll be £30 per month. And, once the carriers have the ability to have their own branded and locked-down smartphoens, just wait to pay a surplus to use an 'unsupported device' like an iPhone.

The carrier-controlled model has been tried before, and found wanting. Returning control to them could set the market back five years in one fell swoop.

A friend of mine has a restaurant and constantly gripes about the poor usability computer reservation system.

However he also pointed out one thing this blog misses (r.e. the reasons restaurants use them) and that is that it lets them automate reservations - i.e. let people reserve online.

Apparently this can be a major advantage now; significant enough to take the awkwardness.

He also mentioned that the computer has advantages over a whiteboard in that it is easier to modify cleanly, limits the number of things like double bookings and so forth, that a whiteboard can create. :)
I dont blame you. I looked at it couple times and at first HN API was an interesting project. Then author started deceasing features and now I have an impression its been pretty much abandoned for a while.
