Oh, so if a website says they aren't stealing your data, or doing anything shady, then it's OK to trust them?..
Sounds like it's time for you to move on. You need to take care of yourself before everything else. If your cofounder has any common sense at all, s/he would've told you to take as much time off as you need to fix yourself up.
I changed memg.py to use sockfile.write()/.flush() instead of socket.sendall().

This makes the memg.py server > x100 faster. It outperforms a gevent-based implementation by 10%.

See https://github.com/codeape2/Key-Value-Polyglot/commit/cbc53a...

EDIT: It does not outperform the gevent-based implementation. More performance testing indicates that gevent is around 2x faster. But it outperforms the original version by an order of magnitude.

It certainly helps as you then at least have evidence that you can use in court to prove that they've violated their own policies.
No, I'm not talking about preference here. This is a general observation with email. It's so easy to go and get a throw-away account, which means that email is not best suited for identity as the other solutions. Sure, facebook and OAuth login suck because it gives the website you login to too much access to your data. However, not many hackers know about OpenId and that it's really cool for login. With OpenId, access to your data is more restricted, and the website doesn't have permission to access your account like in OAuth. Google's OpenID gets it right, it is possible to log in to sites without disclosing your email address, and that's how it should be.
Well even if not legally, morally he did the right thing. The spirit of copyright laws is that the authors get paid for their work, right?

And whether it's illegal depends on the jurisdiction. In some countries (such as The Netherlands) it's legal to download.
While I agree that there are diminishing returns when increasing the bitrate for modern encoders there certainly is a noticeable difference between 20 Mbit/s and 10 Mbit/s.

We would need those high-resolution displays if we ever want to be able to show off pictures decently, and we have (finally) just begun to experiment with high-resolution displays. 4k displays are already being demoed.

My point was that 60 TB vs. 4 TB, given the time difference, isn't such a big deal. Biggest hurdle is to get a stable COW-filesystem. But as today SSDs will rule the workstation (and pretty much everywhere you value performance) and SSDs have much bigger technical challenges to get that big.

Regular spinning harddrives will thus only be used where you have a untypical workload requiring lots of data.
sock.sendall() isn't the same as `sock.send(); sock.flush()`

sendall will look something like:

def sendall(sock, msg):
totalsent = 0
MSGLEN = len(msg)
while totalsent < MSGLEN:
sent = sock.send(msg[totalsent:])
if sent == 0:
raise RuntimeError("socket connection broken")
totalsent = totalsent + sent
How Much Money Animated Shorts Earn on YouTube
So, ignoring the X/H thing, there's more fundamental misconceptions here:

1. The licensing won't change in 2015. Free use was set to expire (and that was a very bad thing) but pressure from Mozilla, Google etc. made them commit to keep it free for video provided for free for as long as the patents last to prevent WebM gaining traction.

2. The yearly cap goes up every (other) year by about 5% p.a. so it's already higher than the $5 million figure commonly given. This rise is however limited to about 5% p.a. so that won't change radically in the future either.

3. Using x264 today exposes you to just as much risk of being sued as it will after 2015 if you don't acquire the appropriate patent license (which you can do, hence it is used by big corps like Youtube)

4. Legally the end-user is already liable if the full delivery chain isn't licensed correctly (and again no-change afetr 2015). It would however be quite stupid to sue you unless you had more money than the rest of the chain and you were somehow making millions from your "end-usage".

5. You can create "DRM" roughly as strong as Flash has in HTML5. It'll just be an inconvenience though, not airtight, as the Flash stuff is. The bigger issue (which you'd think a free software magazine would pick up on) is that in order to chase this pipe dream they would happily sideline open source software.

6. There's no real reason you can't show adverts in HTML5 videos either. And I believe ad-blockers already work for Youtube adverts. So adverts and HTML5 can and will work together (it is after-all heavily pushed by Google) in video or any other web tech. Flash is probably just more advanced in this right now, just as it is for most other aspects of video display.

I'd post some corrections to the article, but it appears it only accepts Facebook logins. I guess this isn't an official FSF communication channel then.
HFT is using colo servers sitting as close as possible to the servers actually handling the transactions. No one serious about doing HFT is even considering switching traffic for more than a few miles if they can avoid it. This cable has nothing to do with HFT.

Body Building Tips – Take Your fruits and raw vegetables
Healthy Diet like fresh vegetables and fruits are important for physical fitness because they are the best source of fiber. We should take such a diet that may help us in getting only the desired energy because excess energy stored in the body cause obesity. Most of the physicians recommend fresh diet for build up great muscles.
Actually, the licensing wasn't always the same and people did "squeal".

I believe part of the reason Adobe went from H.263 (Sorenson Spark) to VP6 and then to H.264, jumping over MPEG-4 ASP was because of uncertainty around the licence regime including a "usage fee" for that video codec.

Similarly, Apple refused to release Quicktime 6 until the use fees for AAC were dropped.

Also, regarding MPEG-2/MP3 the Chinese government forced them to lower their fees because as DVD players plummeted in price from hundreds to tens of dollars they were beginning to account for the majority of the money paid by the end-user (dwarfing manufacturing, shipping, retailer margin) and threats of moving to VP7 codec based alternatives were made.

So yes, the article is almost entirely wrong but there's an actual issue here that big serious companies worry about too, not just crazy software hippies.
While it's a novel thing to try, I don't know how low stress those jobs can be when you have financial pressures to pay the bills. I think it's a matter of what stress you will face in today's society.
They're trying to get you to continuously subscribe, rather than just subscribe for the 13 weeks Game of Thrones is on.

This may have worked in the 90s but people have other options now and they expect other options.

Pirating their content just signals it's valuable and HBO is right to keep availability costly (whether through direct pricing or obnoxious distribution terms).

I think that's the point though, people do find it valuable and may be happy to pay a premium price for it but they don't want to have to pay for a ton of other stuff especially on a monthly subscription.

If it is popular then there is no real reason they should be losing money on it, I think the piracy signals an untapped market.

It's arguably worse for those in the UK, if we want to see game of thrones then we have to fork out for a sky subscription which adds yet another set top box to our already overburdened collection and puts the money into Rupert Murdoch's pocket (there are many who would feel that piracy is a morally superior option to that).

I'm not sure what this does what Zope's Restricted Python doesn't do already, except possibly be more performant. Zope's module requires no patches and is being widely used.

I had a good experience implement this Restricted Python (unrelated to the restricted mode in Python) as a flexible sandboxing for (mostly) untrusted users. I say mostly, because DoS attacks are still possible; these are paying users and just need to be kept in their own sandbox away from others' data. There's a OS level memory restriction and runaway processes are killed by signals.

The Zope module works by compiling all insecure code, restricting some things that are hard to secure and otherwise turning: foo.bar = quux.baz into approximately: set(foo, "bar", get(quux, "baz")) -- where you provide the get and set function, so you can verify no attributes that are bad are accessed. No access to anything start with _ is allowed, and there are a few other odd restrictions like no augmented assignments.

This process has about 40% performance penalty however, depending on how often your verifiers need to get called during the code execution. This applies only to code you explicitly compile with their compiler, so insecure python code called from that context execute without penalty (or security!)

Because of the way my system is setup, the untrusted code interacts with some secure objects, so I have an ACL system where objects can declare that untrusted code can do X but cannot do Y to them.
I wonder how a barebones Erlang-implementation will perform on this. It doesn't look too hard to write :)
Nice. Are you going to be at HN London tomorrow? See if you can share lessons so far with the group (or just share some of your general recruitment wisdom!).
Apple owns iMessages, which might be more important than any other IM network soon, and are already pretty widely used. It wouldn't be too hard to own phone calls the same way (a truly seamless g.722 voice call over lte and wifi would be great. I hate the audio quality of anything but wideband, especially gsm. Plus conference calling and routing features to put google voice to shame)

Relying on literary adaptations is a symptom of Hollywood's decline from the golden age of The Maltese Falcon (1941 remake of a 1931 adaptation of a 1930 novel), Gone with the Wind (from the bestseller by Margaret Mitchell) and The Adventures of Robin Hood (way more than a hundred years old in 1938)?

The reason most Hollywood material is adapted material, is that a movie is a hell of an expensive place to try out new ideas. A book costs little to write, and takes one person to write it. And there are lots of them, succeeding, or failing, on the strength of their ideas, writing and storytelling. Cinema has never been the place to run a lot of flags up the pole and see which one the public salutes.

Strongly, strongly consider capturing CCs at signup. Yes, this takes a bit more work. Yes, this will decrease your conversion rate. However, you're going to get more people successfully charged than you do currently.

Does anyone else have any other opinion on this? I am currently trying to decide whether CC should be a mandatory field or not for my app (which will have a 30-day free trial). What kind of impact on conversion are we talking about?
Well we already have a few interesting companies who have agreed to advertise their roles. We just want to get the word out now to ensure that any start-ups in London or even established companies with a Hacker ethos get involved.
He seems ultimately very comfortable with the way he is living, feel free to prove me wrong but I do not remember seeing any point where he expresses a desire for more money.

I think this community as a whole at times, sees the end goal of money too much as the incentive and can often forget that it is mostly about keeping your head above water, and if doing so you manage to be happy doing what you are doing then that is a massive advantage.

Luckily for the vast majority of us who work in tech, our jobs could equally be said to be our hobbies, I frequently come home from a day of programming to start into a side project. I would much rather work on the wage I'm currently earning, than earn twice as much working in a different field where I cannot wait for the weekend and every morning seems like a struggle.
«WireOver is a desktop app for sending files to anyone, anywhere.»

It's so easy to go and get a throw-away account, which means that email is not best suited for identity as the other solutions.

How is that different from OpenID? Creating an account on e.g. MyOpenID is easy enough - you just need to write an username and a password; even the email field is optional.

I believe SEOMOZ has a thirty day trial but you must give your CC (cancel at any time). They offer some services for free to non users, but they are throttled by cookie/IP so that after the third or forth query in a certain time span, they hit you up with the sign up page.
I agree, I think they have spread themselves too thin.
You'll lose a lot of signups. On the other hand, your signup-to-actually-pays conversion gets dramatically higher. (Appointment Reminder captures CCs at signup and will successfully charge north of 50% of those accounts at least once.)

An interesting feature of the visual graph programming language was that all variable and function names are optional (but useful) comments

Do you perhaps remember the name of the project? This is mightily interesting. I've thought about this many times, that if you represent a program as a graph (instead of a tree) you don't really need 'names' or 'symbols' as such (except to make it understandable to humans), just connections. This allows for a cleaner separation of syntax and semantics, and would make it easier to manipulate programs without having to type.

PrivateSky – Secure Information Exchange platform turns your HTML5 browser into a two-factor authentication token (no more username and passwords)

PrivateSky is protected by the first HTML5 2 factor authentication solution, SkyPin, using elliptic curve cryptography that requires no browser plugin and nothing more from the user other than their email address (as login) and 4 digit pin.

SkyPin makes up part of Incognito Keys, the other part being SkyKey, our integrated identity based encryption key management solution which powers PrivateSky. Incognito Keys does what no other encrypted messaging service can do; guarantees that we CAN'T SEE YOUR DATA. PrivateSky has absolutely no way to physically comply with requests to decrypt information in the PrivateSky platform. No Hushmail leaks of information. Absolutely no backdoors.

The company behind PrivateSky is CertiVox. We're the people that produce the MIRACL open source cryptographic library, used by hundreds of organisations large and small to protect their information assets. Our chief cryptographer is Dr. Michael Scott, one of the pioneers in elliptic curve cryptography. PrivateSky utilises a number of advancements in the field, and...well, we think it's cool, cryptographically speaking. It's also really easy to use. Most importantly, we are completely transparent about how we do what we do, cryptographically speaking. Unless these other services are declaritive about how they implement their security methods, it's security by obscurity. We invite you to read our white paper on the www.privatesky.me site. You don't have to sign up or give us your information in order to access this.

We just launched our global beta so PrivateSky is now publicly available to all. PrivateSky will always remain free, even after we come out of beta period. Please help us; sign up for your own account, use the service, and give us feedback to make us better. We would really appreciate it!

Cheers,
Team CertiVox
On the day after the CC charge - do you have people terminating the account? Somehow, I feel this might lead to people forgetting their 30-day trial and will terminate when they realize they have been charged. Ofc, it's their problem if that happens. Curious, and just hypothesizing.
I tried to buy the deluxe edition but stopped when paypal kicked in.

Was burned before while paying with paypal (money got stuck, took a long time and lots of papers to get it back, the payment didn't even go through), promised myself I won't do it again.

For lots of people outside of US, paypal is not really an option. How about google checkout?

Don't know what it takes to integrate with it as a seller, though.

I speak partly from family experience, unless your partner really understands the subtleties of risk, it's a hard convince that person that you are not gambling or just lazy.

Gambling because that's unfortuantely a similar enough activity in more ways than we'd like to admit: jacking everything in for the hope of getting a successful startup, and doing it time and again, is like going to the casino to the outsider. The real difference which most people fail to see is that gambling is not skills based. It's luck based, ie everything you learn in entrepreneurship is valid next time round. In gambling the odds never change no matter how many times you play.

Lazy, or as it was once said to me - "you ought to go and get a proper job" is still a very strong viewpoint for outsiders.

A partner leaving you and giving failure as an excuse is not and never was a partner.

> Did all nine of the Supreme Court Justices just conflate patent eligibility with novelty and non-obviousness? Yes they did! But it gets worse — they explicitly admitted doing so!

He's mad because he just got Flooked[1].

Some patent lawyers have gotten too attached to the trick they've been using for decades now where they could just split up the section 101, 102 & 103 obligations to meet them each by parts, and consider anyone confused who supposes that the patent as a whole ought to live up to each of those obligations. Note that word "ought" though: for a long time, the courts were more than happy to let them do that. If he's dismayed, it's because the Supreme Court has the power to turn that particular ought into an is.

But this led to an odd state of affairs where so many bad patents issued where the only novelty they offered wasn't actually patentable and the patentable subject matter had already been invented.

[1] That was a bad pun. But this ruling honestly seemed, at least to me, like a return to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parker_v._Flook which is quoted extensively.
