I was able to rack up a score of 1032 actual zerg kills (https://plus.google.com/u/0/105804947146425070365/posts/LKju...) using simulated mouse clicks on the zerglings. It's not that hard: https://gist.github.com/2514407 . There are relatively simple guards one could engineer into the zerg rush program to prevent simple hacks like this though, if one cared to. Fun stuff!
>Given that you pay for the server in advance, a VPS is essentially zero risk for them.

It is not zero risk, the risk is quite high. A credit card company may reverse a transaction reported as fraudulent unless they perceived the fraud report was incorrect / steps had not been taken to prevent fraudulent card use. Web servers are good resources for uses which are often funded by fraud.

The reasons doing a startup are totally irrelevant. For some it's money, for other power, status, passion or whatever. It's not important why you do a startup. These are just drivers and they are good because they push you to start—push you beyond your boundaries. Are these the right reasons? Nobody cares.

It's important just to do something, to start and to carry on.

Even if it will get very hard it's the most satisfying experience you'll never regret—you learn, you do, you make decisions. Looking back every single day I spent as an employee was a waste of time.

I really relate with being all in. I like that term better than 'fully committed' because to many mnba's use it and don't know it means actually working, not sitting around and watching someone else work and because you can see them working, then you too are somehow 'fully committed'. Sorry I digress. Looks like I have some issues to sort out.
Peter Jackson's right you do get used to it after a while. I Bought a Samsung LED television that runs at 60 frames per seconds a couple of years back and it took me three months to get used to it. But now when I look at screens that run at slower frame rates, they just look dull and flat.
This is not the default behaviour. Popping it out will send you to the main page, having two full email tabs and no good clue about which is which. It's worse than Yahoo's way, or the basic html interface in gmail.
If you're using a recruitment firm, that's fair game although I'm glad the one I've used from time to time asked me to do it myself and not try to be sneaky about what they are doing on the backend. It makes the whole dealings with them way more comfortable that they are upfront about everything they are doing on my and their behalf. From what I understand this is not exactly standard practice with a lot of these firms.
Is that because in the end we are rooting for Zuckerberg?

I mean I could understand 'naive' and even understand dislike for kids who come from old money.

Yet money-grabbig/egotistical is a bit weird to parse. Heck if it was a kid from lesser beginnings and he fought back, he would have been the hero of the movie.
> I think it's a stretch to say that physiology plays no role in defining gender.

I never said that was true in all cases. In fact, I said it was strongly correlated with gender in most cases. However, it isn't an absolute determinant, especially if you equate 'sex' with 'genitalia'.
Could be culture. We are used to films looking a certain way and TV looking different, everything else could very well be rationaizations. Not that it changes much about the situation, though.
Do you play media with high framerate on the TV? Because the display's framerate does not matter much if you still feed it 24-fps signal.
Yup, my roommates are all med students and 99% of their class related needs are covered by iPad + bluetooth keyboard (they all got a keyboard case). (they still use a laptop because they have a bunch of medical software that doesn't exist on iOS)

Stanford med school actually "gives" (this verb seems out of place considering the tuition) every incoming student an iPad.

Why Google Ranks More Important Than Other Search Engines
I think the original article (the talk by Phil Libin) was targeted for a more general audience, which qualifies his suggestion not to do a statup. Libin writes:

"I’ve narrowed it down, really boiled it down, to one core piece of advice. If I can only say one thing, and I don’t know you any better, it’s: don’t. Don’t do it. Seriously."

The key part here is "If I can only say one thing, and I don't know you any better" -- for MOST people, starting your own company is not a good idea! Especially if you'd be doing it for any of the misconceptions that Libin outlines.

However, it is odd that Libin chose such an approach given that he was speaking at a conference with a big emphasis on web start ups.

Who's the audience? Sounds to me like he's looking for employees who will take a piece of changing the world (equity?) over cold hard cash.

Based on all the talkers I hear, and the positive feedback they constantly get about how "cool" it is that they want to be an entrepreneur.. I think a good hard "don't do it" would be helpful fire under their butts to JFDI.
That's a good list. I felt a bit less smug when I got to number 40.

It actually does, I believe those TVs interpolate the missing frames.
Not a fair generalization. I've seen very big consultancy firms only accept Word (or raw text) as input so their systems can filter you out before a human eye sees your application.

Also, I think head hunters want text so their software can categorize you and match you with jobs. While LaTeX makes it look pretty, it might not always be feasible to use it.

It is a cultural, subconscious effect. Higher frame rate content is associated with either real life (sports, news) or bad TV (soaps).

I don't think the content association is the problem. The problem is that most people watch movies to escape from real life. It could be that higher frame rate is used for action movies e.g. Transformers and lower frame rate for dramas but I don't know how that would work.

Oh and any argument about "getting used to it" can be shot down with 3D. The world has had plenty of time to adjust and overwhelmingly still hate it.

I have the TV it is a setting IIRC called Auto Motion Mode.

It does indeed interpolate but there is an uncanny valley effect to it. It reminds me of movies where the audio is ever so slightly out of sync. You notice something is wrong but can't perceive what it is.

BTW this setting is not what Peter Jackson is doing and should not be used as a comparison.
If you have to ask, then the answer is no. If you know the answer is yes, then the answer is yes.

Yeah, that was one of the first things I turned off. It makes action kind of bizarre. My Sharp came out of the box configured to interpolate to 240 Hz (what?).
"There isn’t any question of motivation, because the luxury of choice is removed. There is no think, only do."

Love this. Been through it, and I agree that the focus leads to doing your best work. It naturally makes you strive to make sure of success .. not leaving anything to 'chance' - because you can't afford to.
People who genuinely have the psychological characteristics that would make them ideally suited for a startup are unlikely to care if other people think they should do a startup.

People that would not do a startup because they are told "don't do a startup" are precisely the people that should not be doing a startup. The details of the argument against doing a startup almost do not matter.

I have a standard reply in those situations where I come clean and say, "in order to weed out mindless recruiters, could you tell me a little bit about the position?" Legit recruiters, especially in our lines of work here on HN, will always have a job description and typically a company name (ask twice if they don't give you the latter). Resume-collecting recruiters typically don't reply to that email.

The news media is obviously trying to fan the controversy, as that's their business model. Hopefully the almost-visible flickering in movies at theaters will disappear when we switch to higher framerates.

"You can not get a more genuine, realistic viewing experience than this unless you are watching a performance live," wrote About.com's Rebecca Murray, though she noted that it takes your eyes a moment to adjust.

"You're right there and it's breathtaking," noted Hollywood Elsewhere's Jeff Wells. "No strobing, no flickering, pure fluidity and much more density of information...It's the best 3D I've ever seen and probably ever will see in my life. 48 fps 3D is so much easier on your eyes than 24 fps 3D."

> This is just further proof that people don't really want
> an iPad

I want iPad specifically because it has no keyboard—for me intend use (mostly reading and browsing) it adds very little, but makes the device inconvenient to use. And I prefer to do my racing in portrait mode.
If I want to type more, bluetooth keyboard and a stand is more than enough.
That's one of those phrases that somehow rings true. However, you may be surprised by the number of "accidental" startup founders who turned out to be successful.
Humans are not robots. Squishy human elements like motivation, attitude, camaraderie, and "fun" have material productivity consequences, especially in cognition-driven fields like software.

"Quality dev hours" are not a fungible resource. In fact, they're so un-fungible that we commonly accept that beyond a certain point the value of a dev hour is negative. Maybe time spent on these projects invigorates engineers to do better work in the rest of their work hours? Maybe not. But the issue is more subtle than you're giving it credit for.

Plus... well... THIS particular simple throwaway Easter egg is what bothers you? You know there are several multi-billion-dollar industries that employ smart people in creating "fun" ways for people to unproductively spend their time, right?
From a comment on that page, I found this info: http://www.videocandycompany.com/?p=224 Apparently, in order to shoot at a higher framerate, they used a suboptimal aperture. It looks crappy because the exposure is relatively longer, so you get extremely smooth-looking footage.
That proposal has a pile of problems: http://www.belshe.com/2012/03/29/comments-on-microsofts-spdy...

15" hi-res. 6 hours average, 10 hours if all I'm doing is coding. My average brightness however is 5 dots, though I've been noticing I can get 6+ hours coding on max brightness when I'm too close to a window.
I'm only a little worried about this. When you ask the lay what "film" looks like and why video looks different, most people cannot quantify what it means (but can definitely tell the difference). "Film" to most people is that slow, deliberate frame advancement of 24 fps, blur and all. Take that away, and it doesn't look like "film" any more; it's just how we're collectively used to it.

This reminds me of, say, Law & Order. The detectives are standing around a monitor, reviewing security tape; medium shot of the detectives, 24 fps. Full screen tape: 30 drop. Back to the detectives, 24 fps. We've all seen that before -- whenever the characters play with a consumer camera or look at a security feed, visually, a distinction is set by accelerating the frame rate. Producers know this. It just shouts "not a professionally-photographed teleplay!" in most peoples' minds now, and I think there will be resistance to rewrite that rule mentally.

While I welcome dramatic entertainment that looks more like real life, I worry that culturally, we're used to 24 fps and it's going to be a begrudging transition. At least HDTV offered a noticeable improvement. Not everybody will say the same thing about more visually real entertainment; entertainment is entertainment for a reason, and we do not want to be reminded of real scenarios in most cases (it's a flight of fancy).

My two cents. Will be interesting to see how this plays out, anyway. Imagine anthropologists discovering threads like this one in thousands of years: "they even quibbled over the frame rate of their time-dilated visual entertainment..."
Can anyone provide an IP of a box hosted with Hetzner? I want to measure the latency when connecting from Middle East. That's one of things I worry about. Linode seems to have the best peering with the region from all the providers I've checked.

Thanks!
The problem is that most people watch movies to escape from real life.

As I understand it, the problem is that movies are an illusion and in order for them to work, the viewers must buy into it, which is apparently a bit harder with higher framerate.

So people really want things like laptops with touch screens and laptops with detachable keyboards, despite those things selling really poorly.. And people dont want the iPad, despite it selling like hotcakes, thats your conclusion?

If the iPad is a mistake, it's a mistake to the tune of 67 million units over two years, and that's limited by manufacturing, not demand. Or you are wrong.

> Keep the team small. All doers, no talkers.

Totally agree here. Best teams I work in were the small and focused ones!

I can't really see why small companies with high revenue/traction are portrayed as "risky/volatile" because they have 5-15 employees.

To some extent, the same is with single-founders. Why "dismiss" a 1-man team if he did the work of 2-3 people?

PS: I know the motivations for both, but there is a distinction between possibility and likelihood of a risk to actually occur.

Bad review.

That "video look" he's mentioning is the absence of 24fps artifacts I'm very glad we get rid of.

He could as well just have written "meh, reality has a video look".
This is incredibly awesome. Very excited about this. Hopefully we'll see more cool stuff getting merged in via pull requests.

They are mutual competitors - no doubt/debate about that.

But in purely strategic terms, you cannot have a battle on all fronts, and hope to win unless you have some deus ex machina / strong advantage you can use.

An alliance at this time, will reduce their fronts, and immediately put their competitors in a fix.

Its probably one of the more better strategic moves to make.
I'm not sure the difference has much to do with frame rates but rather with 'depth' by relying heavily on focus in film with blurred backgrounds whereas handheld and security cameras usually lack this depth and show a flattened image.

It's quite often the case that things that seem braindead just don't matter. That is, if this practice blocks a lot of illegitimate accounts, then the only person who cares that it happens to block yours too is you. I'm not defending the practice, I'm just saying there's no money in accommodating edge cases.

Nearly every complaint about crappy customer service ignores that large companies don't have much incentive to improve at the margins.

I doubt it's the framerate. Peter Jackson just isn't the greatest director in the world. That seems more in line with the criticism I've seen.
It collapsed because it was a bubble being pumped up by the Federal Reserve and its' "easy money" market manipulations. That is the flawed logic of a Keynesian system, that you can plan and manipulate a world economy. You can't, and thus we ride the roller coaster of boom and bust. It's been happening as long as the unaccountable Federal Reserve has been calling the shots.

XAMthone plus Sembuhkan Luka Diabetes Melitus
a>Di tengah perkembangan zaman yang seiring dengan perkembangan dunia pengobatan medis ternyata belum juga menemukan obat-obatan yang bisa menyembuhkan penyakit yang bernama DIABETES MELITUS (DM). Tetapi hari ini di Indonesia telah ditemukan sebuah nama obat herbal yang mampu menyembuhkannya, dia adalah XAMthone plus sebuah keajaiban manggis.
Adalah Rozaq (57) seorang peternak ikan asal Pare, Kediri, Jawa Timur, mengalami kesembuhan secara ajaib dari penyakit DM yang dideritanya. “Luka DM-nya sangat parah, membusuk dan dokter sarankan untuk dipotong,” ujar Fauzi, seorang pelanggan XAMthone plus yang melakukan therapi penyembuhan DM untuknya.
Selama belum minum XAMthone plus, bukan saja lukanya yang parah, kondisi badannya terus melemah, akhirnya dia sering tidur. Namun setelah minum XAMthone plus, dalam 5 hari keadaannya mulai sedikit demi sedikit berubah. Badannya mulai lebih segar, lukanyapun mulai sedikit mengering. “Setiap pagi saya bersihkan lukanya,” lanjut Fauzi.
Ketulusan hati seorang Fauzi dalam merawat Rozaq dengan menggunakan XAMthone plus, ternyata diberkati oleh Allah SWT. Hari ke-10 lukanya semakin mengering dan mengecil, hari ke-15, hari ke-20, 25 sampai hari ke-50 akhirnya sembuh juga. Lukanya sembuh dan Rozaq bisa duduk dan berjalan kembali. Sebuah proses kesembuhan yang ajaib mengingat DM merupakan penyakit yang belum ada obat yang mampu menyembuhkannya. Teks : KP. Foto : Fauzi.

So it certainly seems that Detroit has not been singled out in any way, unless it's revealed later in the article. Just out of personal stereotype, I'd have to guess that detroit would be the last to embrace innovation and chance along these lines - Toyota or Honda would be cut throat to have these innovations first (to say nothing of the Korean industry which is constantly copying in a misguided effort to out-innovate)
