Ask HN: What is the best advice I can give my wife on finding freelance work?
My wife was a practising Solicitor in the UK until recently. She's now lost her job and using this change in circumstance as an opportunity to re-assess her life. She has previous experience in Copywriting, and is very artistic (but no DTP experience).

What is some good advice I could give her to help her find freelance work?

She's submitted plenty of bids on places like Elance and FreelanceGuru in the past few weeks, but isnt having much luck. Most of the work also seems to be targeted to SEOs
I think one would most reasonably hold that it is both a form of exploitation and a form of enrichment.

Enrichment would leave them -- well, enriched, and exploitation would leave them poorer. These possibilities are diametrically opposed, unless you change the referent of "them" midargument.
Of course he knows.

Well sorry to sound like a grumpy grandpa, but if anything, this site needs less posts of higher quality, not more empty posts with the explicit goal of provoking replies.

I assume you mean more posts of higher quality. I agree with you in general, except that I know no site where the density of high quality posts is so high as here. If it was any higher, I would probably be afraid to post anything. However, social science works different than the topics the discussion is usually about on this site. The best university professors often start their courses by asking provocative questions, which make the students think for themselves. Sometimes the question is more interesting than the answer, if it provokes thought.
How can we possibly sympathise with this? The OP is about a definitive injustice, no one could possibly comment on your case
Best thing about Outrun? The music.
I must have seen this site listed on HN at least 20 times by now.
I'm not sure interfaces are really the "incredibly natural" solution. Why, for example, should a container care about what interface its contained element implements? A list is really agnostic of such things and forcing an interface on the item is silly, just to contain it.
I'm no physics expert, but it seems like in real life the take off velocity is stronger at first and gets lower the higher it goes instead of vise versa like it is here. It gets faster the higher it goes instead of slower. Shouldn't it be the other way around?

But this is pretty cool regardless.
I've never been sure whether I'm someone who genuinely takes something from these things or whether I just like the idea that I might be able to. The only passage I have really ever had stick with me is from the Hagakure and I've felt applies nicely to how I see efficient dev:

Among the maxims on Lord Naoshige's wall there was this one: ''Matters of' great concern should be treated lightly.''
Master lttei commented, "Matters of small concern should be treated seriously." Among one's affairs there should not
be more than two or three matters of what one could call great concern. If these are deliberated upon during ordinary
times, they can be understood. Thinking about things previously and then handling them lightly when the time comes
is what this is all about. To face an event anew solve it lightly is difficult if you are not resolved beforehand, and there
will always be uncertainty in hitting your mark. However, if the foundation is laid previously, you can think of the
saying, "Matters of great concern should be treated lightly," as your own basis for action.

tl;dr You should be prepared for issues that are of great significance so that the actual decision process becomes easy. It is the small issues that arise day to day that you should put great attention to.
That is your opinion.

What about companies that resell your data and publish it without your knowledge through a convoluted series of T&Cs?

I very well might be mistaken. But I don't buy it.

My landline is constantly connected to the operator. My totally clueless understanding of this voodoo box called telephone is that each digit is passed on to 'the system', initiating a call when I hit a valid number (or resulting in an error tone).

I do not believe that it is possible (outside of the telephone network) to encode this information. You could create a huuuuge snapshot (a digital phone book..?) and by the time that data is on any device you care about it's already out of date.

Sorry, I don't believe you and don't think that it is obvious.

Edit:
Stole the idea of checking the wikipedia link for DE from the UK sibling thread. See:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/+49

Note things like

" (0xxxx) xxxxxxx

In area codes that use four digits, newly assigned numbers (for all locations from May 2010, some cities earlier: e,g, Heidelberg already in May 2003) have a length of seven digits, also yielding a total length of eleven digits. Grandfathered numbers may be as short as three digits (seven total) in very rural areas."

Reread the last sentence. Not feasible. End of story.
You know if a number is valid if you try to call it.

You could say 'aaah, but new numbers follow scheme X so lets just have a database (phonebook) of all current numbers first and fallback to the rule later'. No idea if that would work and how it reacts to someone canceling his contract for one of these gazillion 3 or 4 digit numbers.

Hi, thanks for the suggestions regarding features.

I started working on the site only 4 weeks ago and I've had people using it for the past week (~200 sign ups). I'm adding features and improvements all the time.

The reason I'm asking my question about blogs now is not because I plan to try to show it to any bloggers right now. I'd just like to start building the relationships now so that I will have some sway when I'm ready to try and get coverage.
I read the rant (again) and imho it seems like sudo could very well be used as a solution to his problems ("need to have the root password to access some wireless network, or to be able to print out a paper, or to change the date-and-time settings"). From my point of view it seems like the real issue is bad default configuration for sudo (or an alternative system).

No, that would change the experiment into "Which slit does the object pass through?", instead of the current experiment "How does a beam of objects manipulate the wall behind these slits?"

Observing the object in either one of the slits would remove the necessary precondition for getting the interference pattern on the wall, so the pattern would no longer be there in your experiment.

Auto-complete is just a subset of search. Why is it more offensive to type "john smith" and get the suggestion "serial killer" than search "john smith" and have the first three results being about John Smith, the serial killer, and only getting to John Smith, the mountaineer and cat lover, in position four?
Github and Twitter is where it's at.
As soon as you know where the particle is, you're collapsing the wavefunction (the photons are interacting with the particle), so that won't work.
Great post! I use screen a lot, and always miss having the other terminal histories readily available.

However, reversing PROMPT_COMMAND so that "history -a" comes first makes more sense: this way the last command executed on the current terminal has a better chance of being on top of the list for the next up-arrow (which more closely resembles usual behavior).

Also, as noted above, it's better to append to PROMPT_COMMAND rather than just overwriting it. Thus, my .bashrc now reads:

export PROMPT_COMMAND="history -a; history -n;${PROMPT_COMMAND}"
If anything interacts with the object in-transit, such as photons bouncing off it to take pictures, then it's quantum wave function would collapse and nolonger be uncertain. It would essentially 'force' particle-like behaviour.

I use Vim and did get something similar setup for ClojureScript. I used a lein repl running in Gnu Screen and sent clojurescript from Vim to the browser based repl using vim-slime https://github.com/jpalardy/vim-slime. It worked very well.
I had a post with most of the same stuff you said saved for after lunch but you beat me to it with a more precise explanation. I haven't touched C in years but it wasn't difficult to understand the code, though a couple of comments would have made it quicker to parse.

Perhaps this is the effect that high level languages are having on developers - anything that DoesntHaveExplicitNames is classed as confusing and syntax flexibility is seen as wrong. In the web development field, I often get weird looks for writing one line if statement bodies. A ternary operator usually yields furrowed eyebrows for a few seconds. An issue of style over substance, IMO.

Then again, I'm sure that ASM developers looked at C developers the same way.

Well, as soon as you "observe" it, the wavefunction collapses. In this experiment, they observe it way after it passes through the slits, so the quantum can pass through both slits.

If you observe it before passing, if that's possible, the wavefunction will collapse at that moment, and the quantum will pass, like a particle, through a single slit.

No idea how it would be possible to observe it mid-flight though.

Velocity is part of the wave function, but varying it shouldn't affect the qualitative result of the experiment. It will change the specific intensity pattern on the detector side.
That was not an ad hominem. I really hate that phrase thrown about.

Seems full of questions rather than accusations, and I didn't see obscure mentioned anywhere.
There is in fact no duality involved, unless you try to describe the world in classical physics. But classical physics is just an approximation of quantum physics, which describes this phenomenon by the same rules that it explains phenomena we consider normal. As the guy says, "this is normal because it's quantum physics".

It's gotten to the point that the average person needs to remember dozens of passwords for various sites. You can't use the same password for everything because one could be hacked, compromising all of them, and even if that's not an issue, every site has different password strength requirements. This approach lets you use a very complex password for each site without making you memorize it. I just wish there were an Android version.
I'll go against the popular consensus and argue that Google needs to turn this feature OFF by default. When ON, it's far too easy to assume the auto-complete represents the "right" search terms. IMO, it should be clearer that what it actually represents is similar searches other people have performed.

I switched from zend studio to phpstorm almost entirely due to speed, with product quality being the other part of what drove me. Fundamentally, an ide is still a code editor, and it has to do that at least as well as notepad++ or i will not use it.
i don't really get this.

we're not only in an age of consumer-orientated devices, which is great, but also in an age of such wealth and technological progress, that we have specialized machines serving different, specialized purposes.

in which way could the ipad be a tinkerer device more than it is now? well, it could have an accessible *nix core with the ability run a package manager like apt and in general the ability to modify the core experience of the device. although it'd be great to have that, there wouldn't be that much use to it. everything in and on this device is highly optimized for the one experience every buyer comes to appreciate. any core modifications would probably deteriorate this experience rather than improve on it.
but whatever i'm saying here doesn't actually matter, since every enthusiast has been able to do exactly that, get root access to any iOS device, since the first iphone. of course, in order to properly modify the devices behaviour, a lot of back-engineering is needed. but hey, that's what tinkering is all about, isn't it?

i'm digressing... my actual point here is: specialized devices for specialized purposes. a fully capable linux machine with the most open os available today and the benefit of a prospering eco-system costs you a mere 35 bucks or even less. this is any tinkerer's dream and it's real and accessable to anyone. what again are we whining about here?

the ipad/iphone are produced within a highly competitive market. that they're locked up is, objectively, a matter of protection of investments. also, because they can.

to sum it up, the ipad isn't a tinkerer device because

1) it doesn't even have a keyboard. how would you tinker with it?

2) actually you can root the device and modify the underlying core processes

3) going beyond this would need official documentation by apple of it's secret apis etc., which isn't economically feasable in this highly competitive market. i mean samsung copies whatever the fuck is coming out of cupertino, atm at least.

4) it doesn't need to be more than a consumption device, because for the tinkerers there exists the most vivid environment imaginable: cheap hardware, a free, open, up-to-date os and a brimming eco-system of developers and software.
Just getting modules to work in node seemed less intuitive than C includes. Despite all the hype it felt like a step backwards, and a tool to be used only when its strengths (events/streaming) really demanded it.

Node modules are actually well thought out. They resolve circular dependency, and all code inside a module is confined to that namespace.

Whatever tool you take - if you start comparing with another tool that you already use, it's going to be strange and less intuitive. It's almost human nature to gravitate towards familiar things. If that's your own goal, then it's fine. But - to discount something just because it's not familiar to the way you do things is not exactly fair.

Nice link! One difficulty that occurred to me that isn't in the article, however, is that it would be really hard to prevent the kitten from becoming (quantum) entangled with anything else on its N light year journey. If it emits just one thermal photon in the wrong direction then there goes your experiment.
Elance, FreelanceGuru really suck for newcomers. It's almost impossible to get a project if you don't have a good credit score. I would recommend trying places like constant-content or FreelanceSwitch.

So, no time traveling vortex then. No polar bears. Got it.
I am reminded of the Dijkstra quote:

From there it is only a small step to measuring "programmer productivity" in terms of "number of lines of code produced per month". This is a very costly measuring unit because it encourages the writing of insipid code, but today I am less interested in how foolish a unit it is from even a pure business point of view. My point today is that, if we wish to count lines of code, we should not regard them as "lines produced" but as "lines spent": the current conventional wisdom is so foolish as to book that count on the wrong side of the ledger.

Putting such a great emphasis on word count strikes me as a terrible idea. Who wants to read 10,000 words? No one. What you want to read is a good story, or an interesting argument, or beautiful language. If the writing isn't any good, more words just mean more annoyance.

If you want to boost a specific metric, you almost always can. But that doesn't necessarily mean that the whole picture improves along with it.
I really liked O'Reilly's Statistics in a Nutshell; it's readable, it's well structured if you need to look up something, but it isn't just a toolbox, it also spends the time to lay down the concepts and put things in perspective.
The wave-effects depend on the fact that the wavelength is of a size that is comparable to the size of the object it's interacting with. Think about optics: observing an interference or diffraction pattern is easier when the light interacts with very small structures (the patterns on a cd, for example), the same is true for "matter" waves.

The catch is, the wavelength is of the order of h/momentum or h/(mass * velocity) where h (Planck's constant) is a really, really small number.

When mass is something like an ordinary object, then the size of the "slits" becomes so small that we can't imagine how conduct the experiment.

EDIT:

Here's another link talking about grains of sand and giving some numbers.

(http://www.physicsforums.com/archive/index.php/t-132386.html)

> Recalling De Broglie's relation, assuming a sand grain of mass 1mg and demanding a 1/2 mm wavelength (since I'm sceptical that a wavelength below the particle diameter will work), the sand would need a velocity of 10^-24 m/s. To emphasize the problem (via equipartition theorem) you're looking at maintaining 10^-31 K and (to propagate into a diffraction pattern) preventing any interaction for up to 10^14 centuries..

Well, as soon as you "observe" it, the wavefunction collapses

...according to the most commonly accepted interpretation at any rate.
But

But it doesn't lead to an obvious, consistent command syntax, and that was the point.
It's not a speed factor. The possibility for observing quantum interference is controlled by the amount of environmental decoherence. (This is roughly the amount of interaction with the rest of the universe.) Decoherence is eliminated by working in a high vacuum, carefully designing the slits, etc. In principle, interference of macroscopic object is possible, but the sources of decoherence generally increase exponentially with object size.

If you look at figure 3, you can see that the molecules are traveling at 10-100 meters per second, depending on size.
Only in the same way that nobody can explain gravity. However there exists a widely accepted model which accurately describes the phenomenon.
