That would be the best stance for every party to have. Nobody controls the internet.
Works fine if you only use desktop OSes and only use your own computer. Looks like it's sorely needing a mobile version.

If you start relying on this for remembering passwords for you, then surely much of the point would be to use it like 1Password -- to generate long, complex, randomized, unique passwords for each site. You won't be able to remember those passwords. I would hate to go to my iPad and find that I have to use the "forgot password" link to log in somewhere.
But you don't pay double tax on overseas earnings unless the overseas country requires you to pay less tax than in the US as long as you file the tax return, or at least that was what was written in the article as far as I could tell, so the only people paying more are doing so by not filing and being fined.
"It's unfortunate that society places so much value on an activity that is arguably bad for my physical and mental health. "

IT IS NOT, I work as a programmer(I 'm engineer) too. You are the person responsible to be healthy, you don't have to work sitting down. You can(You should) go out every single day and exercise.

Do not blame your job,your girlfriend or your wife, your parents or society. It is your responsibility.

Don't feel that I'm trying to criticism you. On the contrary I'm taking the time to write(the only time I use for reading news I won't read today) this because I want to help you. I don't know you but I would have loved someone telling me in the past.

I could not believe the change I experienced when I started doing it myself. Believe me, there is scientific reasons for that. I read a lot of scientific papers and entire books explaining the reasons. Your veins get bigger, your brain gets more oxygen, your cells get more food and evacuate waste much much better(read about the lymph system), your sugar is used and not converted into fat, your insulin gets lower level(you feel less anxious)... there are entire books about the details, but long story short, your life improves and you feel better, you work much better.

When you work sitting down, your body remains in a passive state, it has to do with blood pressure that change a lot when you stand up(proportional to height from your toes). The body "reacts" to standing up as it is a signal to activate for daily activity.

We are made for moving a little every day, but no so much. You only need moderate exercise every single day.

You will be much more energetic, more capable, optimist, people will love to be with you... you will work without counting the time because it feels great.

It is not a single step, it takes years of continuous improvement, but it is worth it. You need to experience it yourself to believe or actually seeing other people much better than you(that is the way I changed, when I stopped being in denial seeing other people do much better than me).

What you should not do is blaming others or other things(your job) for not being healthy.

About doing 20 hours as programmer, 20 hours as a designer or teacher... well YOU CAN. Who is putting the gun in your head telling you what to do or not?. You are a grown up person, Aren't you?(maybe you are a teenager that started programming at 6, I don't know) It doesn't matter, you can do real(not reading HN or facebook) 40 hours of programming a week(I do) once you know how to manage yourself.

Read "the power of full engagement" just for starting to get it. It will take a while for you to break bad habits from years of bad training.

Another invaluable audiobook:" The Now habit"

but the first step is stop being in denial of where you are first. I expect a lot of people to downgrade this post because there is a lot of population in HN that do it wrong, that martyrise theirselves into work because they don't know how to do it better.

So who's applying for TechStars?
Yes, this is a great phenomenon and I am very happy with their success. Thanks to crowd funding sites like kickstarter, now hardware startups will be able to get more publicity and promising market condition even before massive production. But the point I'm trying to make in my post is not that Pebble is a failure. Of course not, they are very successful and I have nothing against them. All I am saying is that Apple won't allow Pebble to access their proprietary services like Siri and others. And without perfect sync with iPhone Pebble cannot win this "battle". Of course, I'm assuming my prediction of Apple turning Nano to iWatch will happen. And if I am an iPhone user and have a choice of choosing between Pebble and iWatch, I would go with iWatch. Wouldn't you? My post was inspired by this Smart Watch craziness and my thoughts on what Smart Watch should do. I had no intention of belittling Pebble's accomplishment or impact that Kickstarter is having in Hardware startup atmosphere.

Interesting idea, but what happens to the older or less-educated workers who could have handled jobs similar to those? You might eliminate the need for drudgery, but you'd need a way to bring lower-end workers up to the levels needed for jobs that were previously 'beyond' them, and place them in those jobs.

It's the eternal problem of Luddism (aka technology is taking away our jobs and we aren't getting better ones).
I have worked in a startup myself as the lone IT & Sec guy for quite sometime. Generally the attitude towards securing one's IP, Infrastructure, etc is lax atleast in the beginning days and comes into focus if something nasty happens.

My inputs wrt second scenario.
1. Try and figure out from the log as to what changes were made.

2. Take a backup

3. Ask your employees if anyone indeed logged in from that suspicious remote IP (You never know if any of your employees used a proxy, etc.....)

4. Review the permissions given and harden as necessary. Change Credentials

5. If cost is a constraint, there are plenty of open source utilities/applications that can be used for relatively lower costs than the ones from the big companies

6. If something as important as Intellectual Property, Sensitive information is stolen, I guess you are obligated to inform LEA & make a disclosure.

7. Mistakes happen!

8. Document everything!!! I had an experience where a rogue dhcp server popped into our LAN from nowhere! Fortunately I had documented every systems MAC address in our LANs previously and was able to identify the rogue machine and also created a blog post on the same. you can read here:

Trying to find my Team
Guys, I am looking for my first engineers who will be titled as Chief Technology Officer and I am looking for my CFO too.

Doctorow's novel is amazing. It really inspired me to change the way I approach life and appreciate value. Plus, it is relatively short!

Basically, that book is to blame for me converting from a slacker to a hacker.
Replies could be generated automatically. Since I presume they are checking applications on computers/tablets they could make checks next to each question. The person reviewing the application could simply check "Not good enough" or "Deal-breaker" next to the answer. It wouldn't be a lot but at least you'd get some idea on what needs improvement, and it wouldn't take much effort on their part. Or am I over-simplifying this?

When a person is exposed to mercury, they either have the defense to fight it off or they don't. "Some people have a very poor protective mechanism to keep mercury out of the brain. That's where we get into trouble," Warwick said. "The same kind of damage could be said about autism as well".
I feel somewhat silly after seeing the landing page, and realizing it's about a new physical pocket calculator (a product category I didn't think received all that much attention), I still clicked the calculator in the image, thinking it might have a web simulator.

Very interesting post. First of all, congrats on making Fandalism such a success.
I am a musician too, and 10+yrs back, I used to browse Harmony Central for all kinds of gears. Read reviews, read NAMM report, check out used gears classifieds.

One idea would be, just like you have artists and people give thembs up to artist, you could create profiles for gears. Then connect artists to those gears, as in artists recommending, endorsing those gears. If Fandalism is all about fans, if I am big fan of Pud the drummer, would love to know what sticks he uses and what kit he endorses.

Again, extending the fan aspect, sell used gears by the artists themselves to their fans. Fans will be happy to pay a premium for the used gears of the artists they follow.

Artist profile can be paid too. Basic profile is free to create. You can add, maybe upto 10 tracks. And to reduce your server bandwidth, stream those at lowres (low BPM encoded) for the free users. Subscribed users get hires versions. No artist wants to sound bad. That'll push many guys to be paid subscribers.
Thanks for the post - Let me correct what I said earlier. I do not think the chumby is limited in terms of hackability, however I expected more hacks to come out from a fully opened hardware-software thingy like the chumby. I am not exactly sure why it did not happen.

I totally agree with you on the Flash apps vision. This is such a shame that was the main function of the chumby in the first place. I was expecting to have both offline applications as well, and not flash based. Seems like that was not made to be.

The x86 is actually fairly straightforward, as long as you don't try messing around with A20-gates, GDTs and legacy modes (i.e. not staying in protected/long mode the OS has given you). It's only when you try to build things such as bootloaders that x86 starts getting nasty. Backwards-compatibility can be quite evil.

The RAW capture is uncompressed (unlike RED), and further, you can also choose to encode 10 bit 4:2:2 1080p in ProRes or DNxHD.

This cameras is going to sell tens of thousands of units, which in the cinema world, is a huge amount. I think RED has sold just north of 10,000 cameras in the last 6 years. This could easily double or triple that.

I own a 5K 16-bit RAW cinema camera (the Red Epic) and I'll be picking one up as a B or C cam. I expect many other people will as well, if only because it includes the full version of DaVinci Resolve 9 (normally $1K) and UltraScope (normally $700). It's almost like getting the camera for free, since I'd buy the other stuff anyway.

Higher order differential equations
For understand the different type of differentiation equation we assume a function y = f(x) and when we calculate differentiation of f(x) with respect to x, it produces first order differentiation equation and these type of first order differentiation contains dy/dx and example of first order differentiation equation are – if y = sin x, then dy/dx = cos x

An electronic calculator having means for enabling a user to input a calculation, characterized in that the calculator has a mode of operation in which the user is required to input additionally at least one estimate of the result of the calculation before the correct result of the calculation is displayed.
Applications of differentiation
The differentiation is the subfield of calculus and there are various application of differentiation in real world. The differentiation is very important part of math as it is used in many scientific fields. Differentiation can be defined as the process of finding the derivatives of the functions. Differentiation can be used as a tool to calculate or study the rate of change of a quantity with respect to change in some other quantity. The most common example is calculation of velocity and acceleration. Velocity is given by v = dx / dt, where ' x ' is the distance covered by a moving body in time ‘t’.
Right, but compare it to ARM, VAX, MIPS or even 68k. There are plenty of people who got assembly "right"; Intel isn't one of them. Not by a long shot.

Minesweeper in CoffeeScript
To be clear: a private student imported eight used textbooks (legally purchased abroad, and legally manufactured abroad), re-sold them here in the United States, and got fined $600,000 for "damages".

The $600,000 fine was upheld on appeal.

It seems like we may have lost the thread as a country if this is indeed the result we think is just, fair or reasonable.
And now with linefeeds:

The tolerance - how far out one may be for the estimate
to be accepted and the answer shown - must at all times
appear reasonable... The student should never feel that
an estimate was unreasonably rejected, and on the other
hand should not find an odd guess being accepted.
Another point: You have to pay to have you app reviewed on the AppStore, and it may be refused. If it is accepted, Apple will take 30% of your incomes. And your app will remain slow if it is connected to a database online.

E-Learning Vs Traditional Universities
Looking back over a year or so, there have been many e-learning courses that offer you great lectures. From whiteboard lectures, interactive, animated and soon. Does this really mark the shift in the education process and will they be able capitalize themselves over traditional education systems. Khan academy, Udacity, Stanford's Coursera, TED Ed channel, MIT's OCW, Codeacademy, Youtube Education channel and soon offers a variety of courses from high school to advanced topics. And above all they are free. However they are have certain drawback too, they can be accessed only with internet, no standards, less content. What kind of applications, initiatives are required to solve the drawbacks of e-learning system. Eager to hear your comments and hopefully work on them. :)

Chrome OS: Good Gimmicks, But What Else? - LINUX For You
Great post. Having dabbled in mobile dev (and spent lots of time in web development), I always want to leverage my existing skills rather than learn new languages/dev techniques if possible. Still, a hammer - no matter how useful - is not always the right tool for the job...

For all of the attention to user interface design, I find iPhone development one of the least intuitive environments going. Objective C isn't bad, but wiring up GUIs ends up being a headache. It seems to make sense if you understand what is going on behind the scenes and look at it from the perspective of dragging / dropping / connecting widgets rather than taking corresponding steps by writing code, but I have not been working with XCode for years and don't see it that way. Most other visual development environment that I has felt somehow more intuitive (some VB, other small third party UI design tools).
You are not really going to get much traction on HN with the infromation you have given. Do you have an idea or project you are working on? If you do, please post details about it, and somebody might find it interesting and reach out to you.
Windows Live to PST File
Evolve or die
That does sound rather strange. But fascinating...

Stuff like that seems like it might explain some of the mutual disdain that Chuck Peddle and Woz seems to have ended up with after their early encounters (when Peddle was on his 6502 "sales tours"; though maybe interviews and books have exaggerated it).

I can totally see this being the type of hack that would excite someone like Woz to pull off but that would make Peddle's straight laced inner formal engineer rage... Combine Commodore / MOS engineerings early problems getting a decent color graphics chip together but cultural refusal to go for something more hacky (the did plenty hacky stuff but only when Tramiel put jobs on the line) to get out the door quicker, with plenty of blame being put allocated to Peddle on a regular basis, and I can see lots of ego getting caught up in it..
Spot on. You speak for the majority of the population.

What is Vectorization?
Auto-Vectorizer in Visual Studio 11 - Overview
Same experience with phonegap + sencha touch. My personnal conclusion is that :
if you're doing "business" app (aka : where data matters much more than UI responsiveness) AND you want to release the app both for Android and iOS : go Phonegap.

Otherwise, and until the majority of smartphone become as powerful as the iphone4S, stay native. With ARC, developping on iOS with Obj C has become pretty much like developping with any other language (if not better).

Forget about BBC.. I'm still hating the new Twitter design. It is awful. It is far more unfriendlier then the older version. Making me completely switch to Hootsuite.
Yes, to answer your question, there are many ways to go about implementing it, but here is how I do it:

In reality, you have one knowledge base, which is simply a set of facts/rules about the world. For example...

a) berries are fruit
b) red fruit is good (+1 score)
c) green fruit is bad (-1 score)
d) enemies are dangerous
e) eating while in danger is bad (-10 score)
f) eating while full is bad (-2 points)

In a finite state machine, you would have to have several combinations of state (are berries present? are enemies present? are you full? etc). Say (for argument's sake) you have 5 possible states (binary). In a FSM, this would have 32 possible permutations of the states, which all must have corresponding actions associated with them. In a motivation based system, it simply evaluates each state individually, and adds up the points. It chooses to pursue the state that gives the most points. So, here, that would be eating red fruit while enemies are not present.

The way prolog-like systems work, the computer does not have to have ANY idea what food or hunger or anything like that is -- it can be completely oblivious to abstract concepts. All it is doing, in essence, is (searching for and) matching strings. Those strings are the identifiers used for classes (or instances) of game world objects, NPCs, etc. So if you gave an NPC a motivator (kill(enemy) = +10 points, Bob = enemy, get_caught_doing(kill) = -100 points), it will find the best way to kill Bob while avoiding negative consequences. This is (obviously) metacode, and the actual implementation would require better organization and more explicit syntax.

Make sense?

at the risk of sounding strange, is this or anything similar available to buy anywhere?
What if you've already developed a (simple) Android app for consumers, and you want to enter the iOS sphere as well, but you don't have an iOS dev on the (completely bootstrapped) team? Would it be worth investing one team member's time to learn iOS development, or outsource the creation and simultaneously learn to maintain/extend the code, or to simply go with PhoneGap despite the performance drawbacks?

It's not a question that can be answered without additional context, but thoughts on various approaches for this situation would be helpful and appreciated.
Where's the substance? "I'm gonna do something" with little explanation of "something" or the motivation behind doing it. I can support living your passion, but I'm not motivated to provide much of any other kind of support without more background information.
