What a world. I don't trust this announcement.
That's a really good observation: that hackers feel the implementation details are core to the experience.

I do feel that implementation details matter. But they need not be forefront in the experience itself. And confusing the technology with the experience is a classic blunder (cue: land war in Asia).

I think they should've tried to commercialize it. There is a real lack of good, new development systems these days. If you completely open source a new system, developers will just rip it off, contribute nothing, and it will go nowhere. So where's the incentive to continue making it better?

Developers need to wake up, and realize that new, and substantially better systems can be built if they are willing to pay for them. Unfortunately the FOSS community has burned into developers' consciousness to never pay for anything, ever, which produces and environment of extreme lack of innovation.

Our development tools completely fucking suck precisely because developers are no longer willing to buy quality development tools.

Ask HN: Turning a freelancing job into a startup
Curious if there are stories of turning a one-off freelancing or consulting job into a startup? I realize that client's pay me to do X, so there must be many others looking for X already made. For the record I don't mean selling a client's intellectual idea or product.
Oh on arm you will definitely will want to check out luajit precisely for the number performance - see this comment for details : http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2617835 - luajit will use integers where it can.

I did not experiment with this myself though, but hopefully it might ease your woes with no FPU - http://luajit.org/performance_arm.html shows 85x speedup for md5, which I suppose would be integer algorithm.

Out of curiosity, what is the platform, if not a secret ?
One thing that's not clear: Must the target device be connected to a particular wi-fi network, or can devices even be tracked while wi-fi is on, but not connected (or connected to a different network)?
I think that's demonstrably false given how good development tools actually are, particularly open source ones. If anything, too much work goes into open source development tools--certainly much more than in any other category!

Just look at how much is accomplished--and how is easily--by various start-ups using open source technology. There are great web servers, web frameworks, libraries, programming languages, text editors and all sorts of other stuff (that I don't use much so can't comment on).

Also, plenty of people contribute to (popular) open source libraries and frameworks. Even less popular projects get a good amount of contribution--I'm following a couple of emacs modes (a fork of JS-2 and Haskell-mode) as well as some tools (like DoctorJS) on GitHub and all of these get pull requests surprisingly often. I suspect the ratio of contributors to users is pretty high.

In short, open source as a model works if your only goal is quality software. Making a framework open source is a good course of action and we should encourage it.
Obat Herbal Jantung Koroner
jantung koroner (PJK) sebagai salah satu bentuk dari jantung koroner dan pembuluh darah, merupakan penyakit yang melibatkan gangguan pembuluh darah koroner, pembuluh darah yang menyuplai oksigen dan zat makanan pada jantung. Kelainan dapat berupa penyempitan pembuluh koroner yang disebabkan karena atherosclerosis. Athesklosklerosis terjadi akibat penimbunan kolesterol, lemak, kalsium, sel-sel radang, dan material pembekuan darah (fibrin). Timbunan ini disebut dengan plak. Terdapat dua macam plak yaitu plak stabil dan plak tidak stabil (vulnerable, rapuh).

- Items that deserve no attention are bright and draw the eye
(e.g. numbers in front of questions, what's the use, so you can refer to them in a chat?)
Should be muted at best, perhaps even removed.

- Repetition of the word Points unneeded. Takes up valuable space and adds nothing
(note that I've never used that info either in deciding what to view, but some may)

- Upvote button large, I like but does not need an attention-grabbing color
(at least not until I hover over it).

- Title is still too small in the new design.

- "Posted by" is redundant and could be removed as well, or replaced by "By"

- "Time since" indication which I use as my 'click-trigger' for repeat visits throughout the day
I'd like that to be more prominent than the Posted by, i.e. at the from of the line

Fantastic!

I think the sky is the limit with this framework.

If these guys can stick to the spirit of the project, add what can truly help push the system forward while ignoring the multitudes of one offs that will try to chip away the utility, this really has a shot of not only being a game changer but helping define the game for years to come.

Great work!

USA has a reputation for trumped up charges: mentioning money laundering charge allows police to seize everything. There's no money to request lawyers. Judges in USA are known to do ex parte and default decisions in favour of plaintiffs. And a history of sovereign immunity which means no compensation because police can lie that they did it in good faith. There's no liability for police to lie in USA.

There's no justice in USA against government abuse except through some gun amendment I hear.

I'm not sure about NZ though. Join your Pirate Party to fight against the anti-Internet American government.

I would suspect the business model will be support and feature development. In a widely used framework, there will always be people who need it customized, or need to integrate it in new and interesting ways, or require some sort of commercial support contract in order to use it. If they make these options available early on, they will make money.
If you're following this tutorial because you want to learn how to build the backend, I would highly recommend using Parse instead.
As the article opines, there's something slightly sad about this milestone. I have roughly 100-120k edits on the English Wikipedia ( http://www.gwern.net/Wikipedia%20resume ), so I think I can speak from first-hand experience here.

The problem with devoting this much effort to Wikipedia is not that your time is wasted. If you get this far, you've absorbed enough that you know how to make edits that will last and how to defend your material, and this guy in particular is making edits in areas particularly academic and safe from deletionists; and your articles will receives hundreds or thousands of visits a month (see stats.grok.se, I was a little shocked at how many page hits my articles collectively represent a month).

The problem is that the benefits are going entirely to all your readers. It's practically a case-study in positive externalities. You don't even get intangibles like reputation. When you make 10,000 edits to your personal wiki, you will probably have written some pretty decent stuff, you will have established a personal brand, etc. Maybe it'll turn out great, maybe it'll turn out to be worth nothing. But when you make 10,000 edits to Wikipedia, you are guaranteed to get nothing.

(Yes, I realize his user page lists a bunch of media coverage. That's great, but it's only because he's the first to pass 1m edits. What happens with the next editor to pass 1m, or heck, all the other editors on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:List_of_Wikipedians_b... ?)

To again turn to myself; when I was pouring much of my free energy and research interest into improving Wikipedia, I got nothing back except satisfaction and being able to point people at better articles during discussions. I began writing things that didn't fit on Wikipedia and got a personal website because I didn't want to use some flaky free service, and the world didn't end. I now have an actual reputation among some people; on occasion, people even email me with job offers to write things (discussing a little ebook with O'Reilly, for example). I owe my current (very modest) job to my writings being clearly mine, and not 'stuff on Wikipedia'. I'm not saying any of this is very impressive, but I am saying that these are benefits I would not have received had I continued my editing on Wikipedia.

Wikipedia is wonderful, but it's sad to see people sacrificing so much of themselves for it.

If I read this right, much of the weight reduction is because a large component of the electricity-generating reaction is already plentiful in the atmosphere, so it doesn't have to be carried around with the battery.

But as the battery is discharged, the oxygen molecules are altered (according to the video) and presumably stored in the battery - which implies when discharged, the battery gains (significant?) mass. During charging, the oxygen is released again, so the weight goes down.

Is that right?

> This is why I disagree with the notion that style is only skin-deep.

Semantics, but I think you are agreeing with your parent that there should be something deeper than the gloss applied in this redesign. That design must go more than skin-deep. Arguably the word “style” could refer to paint jobs, so your statement was fairly confusing.

I fully agree with your comments regarding the bizarre amount of visual attention demanded by the rank numbers here and the points’ affordance of clickability (and said as much on a comment there).
Why? If you are sure you need a facebook presence, and not sure about your own site helping the brand, then you just push the facebook one. It's simpler. No confusion. One place to go to find out about the product.
Just a random thought but perhaps you should put up a honeypot version on it's own server to see where the weak spots in security are. Then invite the community to find the holes, or actually ask the hacking communities to help identify gaps in security? Honeypot in this instance meaning a machine dedicated to pulling in attacks (Like flies to honey) to help you identify weak areas of your framework.
I think that's demonstrably false given how good development tools actually are

No. Development tools seriously suck. Show me an IDE that can debug multi-client websocket code. Good luck. Every open source IDE's like Eclipse are useless these days because they can no longer keep up with the new problems being introduced.

Light Table is maybe the first genuinely new, commercial, development environment to be introduced. People are gushing over the possibilities. All of a sudden people might, for the first time in 15 years, be willing to pay real money to make their lives easier.

The open source model is a socialist model that has failed to keep up with the pace of technological change, and encourages developers to not purchase development tools which slows innovation in development technologies. FOSS ultimately holds back innovation.
The bigger issue is the huge amount of power the government has to kill businesses at whim with no recourse.

"The trouble with fighting for human freedom is that one spends most of one's time defending scoundrels. For it is against scoundrels that oppressive laws are first aimed, and oppression must be stopped at the beginning if it is to be stopped at all." -- HL Mencken
If you maintain a copy of the data and give them access to it, then you aren't going to lose the data. You've lost control of it, since they can take it and do whatever they want with it, but you'll always have your copy. However, very few web apps work that way. The personal data that goes through Gmail is overwhelmingly generated in Gmail, and Google retains the only copy unless you back up all your data at home. Ditto for Facebook -- the only personal data that people are likely to retain a copy of is photographs, and again, that would only be for backup purposes, except for hobbyists who keep raw files or higher-quality images at home. For most people, Facebook serves as a very reliable repository for their personal snapshots.

We're completely at their mercy for all the data we create in their apps, and therefore we're completely dependent on two things:

1) They want to retain customer trust.
2) They are concerned that they might lose that trust if they misbehave.

They're constantly testing the limits of 2) (intentionally or unintentionally.) At some point 1) could cease to be true. They could become so necessary, or so powerful, that people become cynical about the possibility of defying them, and therefore start accepting abusive behavior.

Another scenario is that they could stop caring about customer trust not because they're too powerful but because customers have already abandoned them. Imagine that in 2022 Facebook is a has-been. It has been beaten in social networking, or social networking sounds ridiculously quaint in 2022, and Facebook is a failing company with no prospects for revival. Kind of like SCO. And it happens to possess, as its only asset, a little bit of intellectual "property" (a decade of personal information on a billion people.) Perhaps, in its death throes, it will go the way of SCO, abandon all moral restraint, and attempt to squeeze a windfall out of that "property" in the most cynical way possible. Maybe they'll charge you a ridiculous fee to retrieve your data in a useable form. If their user agreements make that impossible, someone in the company might go rogue and sell all your private data to a shady entrepreneur in a lawless country. They could sell the photos to Joe Francis and individual account histories to blackmailers and gossips. We know that won't happen today, because Facebook has the resources and the motivation to make sure it doesn't happen, but if the company goes to hell, we won't have those assurances anymore.
Not the same thing, and CISPA has nothing to do with the MPAA.
You seem to ignore the fact that open-source allows more people to use a product. When more people use it, more activity happens - which leads to evolution.

Not sure how you can ignore the open-source software that rules the software development world.
As a Rails developer, your comment baffles me. We are practically drowning in open-source Ruby gems, many that are very useful and of high quality.

> If you completely open source a new system, developers will just rip it off, contribute nothing, and it will go nowhere. So where's the incentive to continue making it better?

The exact opposite of what you described happened with Ruby on Rails.

Are you aware that he has numerous convictions for things such as trafficking in stolen goods, embezzlement, and insider trading?

This article is terribly difficult to follow the flow of text. I've never understood the desire of some designers for columns of text on the web. Web pages are infinitely tall. Why would you want to replicate a restriction of old media on a new one? This implementation is proof that it's not a usability win.
Awesome - I was one of those highly critical of the original license, so let me be among the first in congratulating them on making this (quite major) change so quickly.
Yes, it makes sense.

Stuff I liked:

1.) If I understood your video correctly (without visiting your site),
your software has the capacity to easily create a form for participants
to fill out. Getting feedback on a specific question is good.

2.) You mentioned something about participants reaching their own
conclusions (opinions). This is good, but was still somewhat unclear.
Are there totals/metrics/votes? Who can see those totals/metrics/votes?

3.) The pros/cons is good, but could use more coverage.

4.) I'd bet it's in your stuff, but there is no mention of positions
such as the person responsible as the "decision maker" or who is
responsible for implementing said decision.

Stuff To Improve:

1.) Reduce the volume on the "click" noise. It was a bit distracting at
first, but it's a good idea to have a "click" noise.

2.) There was no mention of security.

3.) There was no mention of time. Most decisions need to be made under
some deadline.

4.) Is there a way to list "allowed options" in the sense of
possible conclusions. Let's say you're looking at the purchase of a
product to fill a specific need (problem statement), but you are only
willing to accept a choice limited to a short list of available
products? (or similarly, some of the possible choices are not allowed
due to cost, license, ...).
I do .net at my day job and it's awesome. Visual studio, c#, linq, etc are great when someone else is paying the costs.

But for my own startup, the costs just aren't worth it. Open source frameworks are good enough and good enough is what matters on a budget.
How is it so quick? I attempted writing a similar thing in node to grep the Rails source code, but it was far from real-time.

Why I Don't Go To Game Jams
I think that's demonstrably false given how good development tools actually are, particularly open source ones

I'm curious about your specific frame of reference. Which tools do you have in mind? Have you also used Visual Studio, C#, and Linq as a point of comparison? (I have not, but they are mentioned favorably in these comments.)

A lot of people might cite Eclipse as a good development tool. The Java GUI library used to implement it was much lauded as well. However, it was not so much Open Source that drove its quality as the willingness of IBM to commoditize Java and Java development environments out from under Sun.

GCC was a going concern, but a lot of its development was funded by commercial firms that wanted fixes or extensions. Chromium and Firefox have certainly benefitted from outside funding.

From what I've seen, FOSS can often produce good back-end software but user-facing stuff is often lacking in a certain polish, unless there is commercial backing and paid professionals are contributors.

I've also read that the majority of FOSS projects become stagnant. I think of them as startups but for a different system of compensation. That's not good or bad. That's just the reality of how these things work.

GPL requires you to give back; MIT gives you the choice. Developers are by nature creative people. And humans are not incapable of altruism. Even with an MIT license, I expect a lot of community contributions to pour in.

In fact, I expect more community contributions to come in. MIT means (perhaps) a lower percentage of users will give back, but there will be a higher absolute number of users since the license is more permissive.
