> Moreover, all the popular environments support both GTk and Qt fairly well, and both are cross-platform, so you would actually be supporting more users than with a Mac OS-only program.

By that logic Windows should be first since it has the most users. Also, are you sure that the installed base of Gtk+ or Qt (or both) is greater than the installed base of OS X?

Also, how did you manage to acquire that? That's pretty impressive.
Persistence & determination are two of the most important factors. Why hang your dreams on any particular group? I say know what you want to do and let nothing stand in your way. And for Y Combinator? They simply can't support the dreams of everyone that applies. Not everyone is going to fit with what they are comfortable with and wish to get behind to support. If you get to the interview stage as this group did and are rejected, obviously the feedback can be fuel and added direction to further shape your vision going forward.
I think 6 months of runway is not enough. People usually have 6 months of cash cushion to bridge until the next job. But you have to refine a business idea, develop the product, market it, sell it, and turn a profit that can replace your old salary. 6 months are far too optimistic. Two years are more realistic.

If you can't wait for the startup bug, why not do it on the side for now?

I have never seen gang street bar fights in my life. I've seen guys jump another to rob/intimidate one person, but they'd do that to anyone just randomly walking through their hood. That's not a street fight, that's criminal scum. Where are you that dudes are ganging up on one guy?

And, why is it always in hypotheticals that the trained guy is going to sit there doing katas and flowery BS belt presentation moves?

I think this post raises some good points but really misses the mark.

Firstly support. On dedicated hosting on some providers, yes you will get a quicker response than from Amazon or Microsoft or whoever your cloud provider is. However, when there is a problem with their service, by the time I find out about it I am normally looking on their site to see they have already been notified of the problem and are already looking into it. And Microsoft Azure does have phone support for any critical issues.

The 2nd great thing about the cloud is that, it isn't just your problem. They are hundreds if not thousands of companies affected and they are more likely spending far more money than me with them. Hence I get the rapid fix of any issues, without being the big client.

Benchmarks - not sure why that was brought up, you can benchmark on any cloud provider. On Windows Azure I can find out everything from CPU to memory usage and do remote profiling.

Dedicated will give you better costs, machine to machine wise but I would rather pay $1,000 + more a month to have someone look after all my hardware and the ability to scale as a I wish, rather than have to pay someone (who would cost far more) to monitor, upgrade and plan for it continuously. If $150 to $1,500 is an issue and you are prepared to spend a large part of your own time on this insignificant issues, then I suppose you are a startup and not a business yet.

I understand doing everything yourself at the start, staying as lean as possible, but if you are looking at that scale and hiring people then the costs of the cloud are FAR more attractive.
Wolfram Alpha is great for mathematical properties of numbers, while we have trivia facts and are looking to gather more (eg. from world records, numbers in nature, statistics, almanacs, news).
Sounds pretty cool, actually. You may want to reach out to specialized/boutique weather data firms and broker a supplier deal. There are larger weather companies out there that would love to aggregate your stuff to improve their current offerings (kind of a whole being greater than the sum of the parts model). I wouldn't try to go strike a deal with, say, power companies or insurers or whomever the end user may be. By itself, your data may not be very valuable, and these larger companies likely already own the relationships that would take you a long time to forge.

But, if any when you are sitting down with these companies, be smart in the contract signings. I know a few meteorologists who got their early cash flow from supplying data, but they negotiated a bad contract and it was a rough experience. I've also heard some stories of great relationships that led to exits, so each company is different.
That's good for you, because you flipped IndexTank, and then it died.

The point is, if you rely on profits to keep your company running, saving 11x on your infrastructure costs is something everyone should be at least evaluating.

i see your developers have lots of free time on their hands ... other than that its pretty nice :)
I know more history than the average person, and I totally, utterly disagree with you.

From what I understand, the US Founding Fathers explicitly wanted to avoid a democracy, which was seen as an unjust system that punished Socrates and was associated with the downfall of Rome (at one point, the Roman emperors apparently had to essentially feed the populace in order to maintain enough popularity to stay emperor, bankrupting the state).

Rather, they wanted a system that protected individual rights. You know, life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

That is explicitly opposed to a system of rule by the majority or rule by the people.

The US was not supposed to be a democracy.

And regardless of the historical details, why would I want to be ruled by the majority? I want to rule myself, and I have no desire to rule others. That's the only morally proper attitude.

Well, generally following the redirects is actually somewhat redundant. The idea of GSB is that URLs that lead to bad things would all be identified and added to the database.

Customising attacks for a given site specifically adds complexity and cost to the attack, which is really the aim for all of this sort of work. Everything you can do to drive up the cost of the attack makes you a less inviting target.

It would be a mistake to think that usb4ugc (or tools like it) would protect everyone all the time. It's never a replacement for vigilance and education on the user-side, just a useful extra line of defense.
Can you maybe elaborate on how you're getting paid from termination? Perhaps I abused the term "traffic pumping", but this definitely sounds like the sort of of thing I was picturing being exorbitantly expensive to the carrier initiating the call to your service.

I previously worked as a telecom engineer at a VoIP startup and we definitely characterized http://freeconferencecall.com as a service monetized by traffic pumping and denied connecting to its NPA in our dialplans. While by no means absolute truth, the concern I'm voicing is further reinforced should it be true that Google Voice is refusing to terminate to your DID as described below.
E la Carte - Palo Alto, CA - Software Engineers, FT & Interns

E la Carte (www.elacarte.com) is revolutionizing the restaurant industry with our Presto touch-screen tablets, which enable guests to browse appetizing pictures of the entire menu, place orders, split checks, make payments, and play interactive games – all from the comfort of their restaurant seats without having to wait.

We're not just building an ephemeral website or apps - we're building an actual tablet as a platform and amazing software for restaurants across North America! Your grandmother will use this product.

Join our tight-knit team of 30 (~10 Engineers from MIT, Microsoft, and Amazon) in our Palo Alto house and help us scale up this fast-growing company. You'll wear lots of hats, have immense room for professional development and growth, and be able to make a huge impact on our product and organization.

Our favorite tools are Python and C++, but our platforms are complex and we learn new technologies daily.

Most of our engineers get their hands on a variety of projects, although we could use specialization in the areas of Test, Tools, UI, and Back End. We even have opportunities for Interns and a Lead - just reach out!

I wonder if it can be weaponized?
Yeah its different for all cases. Our monitoring company uses a bunch of providers, we started with AWS. Why? Because its cheap, quick to deploy...and i had no way of getting our servers in 8 global locations in a week any other way.

We spend under 1k / month (still - we're the masters of money saving...) and we're all around the globe. The truth is, we couldnt even get close to matching this price any other way.

The cloud is for a lot of startups, but only if you know how to use it properly.
And with GC on the way out in OS X... MacRuby has their work cut out for them.
Well of course they worry about it. I can ditch Google and go to Yahoo, DDG, Bing, hell Lycos might still be around, if the Google homepage takes too long to load.

It's been a while since I saw the story about this, but I came away with the impression that users weren't leaving for another search engine; rather, they were deciding that searching (for whatever often-trivial thing) was not an engaging use of their time.

I'd think that would be of especial concern to something like Twitter.
This isn't necessarily an apples to apples comparison. For the JTR case to be fairly, one would have to compare ROM or warez distribution, downloading and the resulting litigation.

This seems to be closer to the concept of mashups and remix culture for music, where the copyright and trademarks are not as clear cut.
Ask HN: Is an Ez Privacy Startup a Good Idea?
My idea for a startup is for something where the privacy policies on websites are transformed into 1-2 sentence parts and used instead of those long privacy policies out there now.

At some point in the future also add a way where you can block websites that have bad privacy policies to your preferences.
How would you like it if a new copy of iTunes was spawned every time you click a MP3 in finder? That's about the analogy for the current twitter situation.

I wonder why twitter doesn't simply serve up a static "fake" page for direct links. That could easily weigh in under 100kb and display instantly. Then make all links on that page boot up the "real" twitter.

That way the long wait is at least mitigated until the user actually starts to interact with the page (which in 99% of cases he'll never do because he only wanted to read that one tweet).
I'll see if I can track them down, one of the startups I just met at some random event, but the other I saw pitching at a pitching event (flagon's den) so I can probably find them again.
> It doesn't look like traffic pumping.

What makes you feel confident about this? The assertion that "We get paid from termination" strikes me as very much that sort of arrangement. Perhaps I'm abusing terminology.
Thus Datomic would be very great for centrally-operated systems, but not so much with highly distributed systems where many peers are often partitioned out because, for example, they have no Internet connectivity for a few days, and they still need to operate within their limited universe.

So if such a highly distributed system was to use Datomic, it would be harder to guarantee that each peer can work both for reads & (local) writes while being partitioned from the transactor. One would need to program the software to log those new facts (writes) locally before submitting (syncing) them to the transactor. And make that durable. Also, one might also need to make the query/read cache durable, since there's no network to fetch it back in case of a reboot of the peer. So it seems there's a missing local middleman/proxy that needs to be implemented to support such scenarios. At least, thanks to Datalog, the local cache would still be able to be used with this log, using db.with(log).

What do you think, is this use case quite simply implementable over/with Datomic, without asking it to do something out of its leagues?

I find it ridiculous that a significant percentage of the population here equate raising VC money with selling your soul. I know you cite the SvN post, but that is one opinion. Raising VC is good for some businesses, bad for others. So is your hiring plan. So is your product choices. And a hundred other things.

We struggled for a long time, and our business came perilously close to the end a few times. But you know what got us out? Funding. VCs. Amazing investors that were thoughtful, supportive and value accretive. The marketing that we could invest in with our funding. We're doing millions of revenue now, and it is all because we were able to light the rocketship with our VC fuel. And did I say our VCs became great friends and mentors, even through the tough times?

It's not for everyone, and my experience may be an outlier. But let's stop with the snarky ant-VC comments.

I agree with the rest of your points and good luck with the pivot!

I also looked this up, and found the original paper that coined the term, which starts:

Anyone know what the "Lions in South Africa" method is? I couldn't find it via Google, it just kept turning up references to the same paper.

The author completely ignores infrasonics and writes under the incorrect assumption that our only perception of wave pressure comes from our eardrums.

I've never been able to enjoy listening to my favorite classical music on headphones or even smaller speakers, and it's largely because of the effect you describe.

At this point I'm resigned to preserving my treasured (and cumbersome) vinyl collections. Maybe if Apple comes up with some snazzy marketing term (e.g. "Retina") for 24/192 or even 24/92, and starts distributing it on iTunes, things might start to change.

Learn about hyper-focus; how to engage it, and how to keep it going.

Get some good headphones, and a play-list of music you like that is familiar (a small list that you play on repeat).

Ritalin (or other add meds) will help.

Don't learn by repetition; if you are like me, repetition is toxic to you. Learn how to make reusable components so you only have to write once.

Choose difficult tasks; things that require you to invent, and use your whole brain. Things that you have to stumble through are a lot easier remembered than things you read in a book.

If you can, turn the lights off.

A restaurant in Indianapolis has iPads at every table that include lots of things like the ability to like on Fbook, Twitter, etc, view and write Yelp reviews, view the menu, learn about the staff and restaurant, etc...

In addition, the servers carry these small devices not much bigger than an iPhone that have touchscreens to send the orders back to the kitchen. In addition, the devices have card readers and a small receipt printer so the server can handle everything from right at your table. It's pretty cool and futuristic, especially for a brewery/pizza joint.

I use FastSpring for several of my businesses. All my Firefox and Chrome customers are currently bouncing off a scary malware warning when they go to check out:

FastSpring support says:

"Our marketing page on fastspring.com was hacked with some malware. Because of this, google lists any FastSpring.com URL as hosting malware and blocks Chrome and Firefox visitors from going to FastSpring.com URLs. While Springboard and Order pages weren't hacked, the net effect is that users of Firefox and Chrome are temporarily blocked from getting to order pages. We are working to clean this up and get google to unblock and hope to have it fixed soon. Buyers using IE, Safari or Opera aren't effected."
