Also, it's like painting a huge target on your back for hackers to attack. Maybe that's the deal, all script kiddies will hack the .secure tld and will leave the rest of the internet alone.
Er, mine says I currently do not have an 'id' cookie. What's that mean? Am I untouchable or completely exposed?
Whoa... This is interesting and very Badoo-like. I am surprised that Facebook has stooped this low to monetize its userbase. Again, they are focusing on the interests of the nodes instead of the benefit of the edges (relationship).

This is an inherently anti-social feature because it allows asymmetry in the relationship. People want to see what is most relevant to them, not what their friends want to broadcast.
Then they should stop creating an expectation of pay in relation to the referral and make it clear that the company pays these in capricious manner which will depend on how much the CEO likes you that day instead of relating it to the performance of your job.

If the CEO sent an email about new "Capricious and Arbitrary Referral Bonus" then I'd tend to agree with you that the OP should have expected to be treated in a capricious and arbitrary manner in regard to the payment of the bonus.

For example in my options contract with my last employer it stated that the options were part of an employee retention program and should not be construed as remuneration.

After reading those lines I knew the options were a ploy to retain employees and not to actually expect to make a cent from the options. Upon quitting and being offered to buy out my options I said "The options contract states that it's for retention and not remuneration, why would I buy something that you've warranted as worthless?"

It's no different than an employer offering a 'bonus' for hitting a certain date for code. If I quit day after delivery it should make no difference as to whether I'm paid.
How is that not _exactly_ the case here? The company offers a $10k fee for referring an employee who stays 6 months. Employee refers someone who stays 6 months, but the company forgets to pay him and he forgets until a month after he quits. The company owes him $10k, and the fact that he quit is immaterial.

I don't think the naming and shaming was a very good idea, but he is absolutely owed $10k.

Sounds like they would be trying to operate as a sort of Centralised Certficate Authority.

Didn't Verisign try something similar, only to get out of that business as soon as it became obvious the whole system is easily exploited and inherently insecure?

It will be interesting how this company tries to explain how this is different.
I'm kind of amazed that most of your contributions to this thread have been about telling people that they're wrong for feeling a certain way. That's like me telling you you're wrong for liking code. You agreed that Miso clearly owes him money. That is why people are sympathetic to this guy. He is owed a lot of money.
iBooks: DRM gone bad
So...I've been reading a book and wanted to copy a few useful bullet points from the text and email them to myself for future reference. That's when I discovered that I can't do that. I can't even copy a single word. This, of course, due to DRM.

Just to verify that I was not insane I opened one of the many excellent Sitepoint books I own. I can copy and paste at will.

Here's my dilemma: I don't own a TV, I can't be bothered to even try to download, let alone watch. I tried with The Wire, it became a suffering labor to t trough it, no matter how interesting. Mad Men? Good luck. I have no time.

I think the author would argue it's a chicken and egg problem and that there are not as many because there's not good funding here. Having lived in both the Bay Area and now in Seattle I think he's right--there's lots of talent here and much less funding.
I find this pretty incredible. The price point is interesting, it's what i paid for my base model mid sized sedan a year ago. I don't know anything about cars, I assumed the technology for 100mpg cars was not practical. I am curious about the transmission. AFAIK nissan's CVT transmission is an improvement over automatic transmissions. There are possibly other CVT designs out there:

Show HN: My first (public) JS project attempt
I've been using open source JS libraries, utilities, you name it... for the majority of my adult life. I've thought about contributing back for a long time but never knew how to approach this, well I think I've finally made something simple that some may find useful. DDate (The Date) is a small set of functions to work with Date objects that the default JS Date object doesn't have.

I'd like to hear opinions, what to improve, etc. I know there are more comprehensive libraries to work with the Date object, but I thought about making something simple but useful.

Cheers.

"The calculated surprise attacks on visitors demonstrate very advanced thinking usually only associated with humans."

It's more like very basic thinking usually only associated with human toddlers. Articles like this tend to exaggerate animal intelligence to sell more. But think about what humans (even human children!) are capable to do, we really play in another league.

Guys. Listen. .com is, has been, and always will be the standard. It's the brand name. It's the default.

There is never not going to be a chase.com. It will either be run by JP Morgan Chase, or it will be run by a scammer, either way the overwhelming majority of internet users will think "chase" and associate "chase.com" with it.

Imagine a non-technical family member getting a phishing email with chase.com in it. Do you honestly think that they're going to think to themselves "bah! the .com tld isn't secure! I should be looking for a .secure website!"

What is even the point of this? Regardless of if people jump on to .secure, the entire .com internet still exists.
That isn't how it works.

What if the person had a compensation package which paid really well for selling a product which could be sold by over promising? Their W2 would look awesome but the company would be screwed. I would be most cautious of business people leaving a job with a strong w2. Also it is important to see relative performance. What if they are making 100k and their coworkers are bringing home 500k? Are they still good then?
They tried that in Detroit...
Department of Homeland Security says that they're aware of the situation and are monitoring it closely. They urge caution and suggest that travel to that area should be avoided if possible, until the situation becomes more clear.
I'm not normal but none of your claims for where we've gone wrong fit my situation.

Both in business and privately we pay on time and have assets exceeding our credit. Ergo the only risk of lending to us for premises is that the mortgaged asset will fail to retain the value of the credit extended. At 25% deposit thats a serious piece of risk avoidance in anyone's books.

What's left is that we can't provide a sufficient up side to get any of the banks out of bed. Near zero risk isn't good enough, they want bigger fish. Of course we'd need credit to grow ...

The Bigelow design is actually significantly stronger than the ISS modules. You're thinking about "inflatable" wrong- they have an expandable mesh of fabric several layers thick that is extremely strong and lets them get a larger diameter module out of a smaller payload fairing. If you get hit with debris of any reasonable size, you're fucked one way or the other. The Bigelow design is easier to seal up and more robust against smaller debris.

To answer your question: if it were me hiring a person, absence or presence of screenshots would not make any difference. A contract is a contract and the person is owed $10k.

Four reasons we’re not as good as we could be
> I'm pretty sure this would last about five seconds in front of a judge.

Would it? I think the judge will see it as 'refer somebody who stays for 6 months and submit a claim to get your bonus'. I doubt any documentation on the bonus would say that you get the money automatically credited - so any T&C on how to claim the bonus would legitimately be considered part of the agreement. Since the employee failed the last part of the condition, the company would win.

How to Make Insane, Procedural Platformer Levels
You could show up straight from the gym, and, if you could code, we would hire you. You might not make an optimal first impression, but good developers are hard to come by.
HD means high definition. The TV people have adopted that term for HDTV, so be it.

I threw a number out there, but should have known better since someone was to nitpick it.

The correct term is PPI (screens) over DPI (printers). Also, PPI is pixels per inch. PPI is not relative to viewing distance. DPI is not relative to viewing distance.[1]

An iPhone 4S has 326 PPI. We already have a technically accurate method to measure pixel density, so let's use it. Use bytes to describe data, not Libraries of Congress.

Retina is a marketing term. Does phone A had better PPI than phone B? I don't know, is Retina better than Super AMOLED++? Why not just compare technical details instead of resulting in fuzzy marketing word arguments?

[1]: DPI does not change with viewing distance, but the closer the viewing distance the higher the DPI needs to be to achieve the same visual effect. A billboard can look the same as a postcard at a much lower DPI because at that distance the human eye can't discern the individual dots.

Alright. Since people keep arguing to things I haven't actually said, I am going to start posting a "Comment Bounty" (working title). After all, money seems to be the one thing that everyone on HN can understand.

If you can find any comment of mine in this thread where I told someone "they were wrong for feeling a certain way", I will pay you $100.

I am not kidding.
HN is fairly intolerant of any kind of humor, I've found (unless it's the snarky kind). I've been downvoted more than once for trying to crack a joke, in fact I don't even forsee this post faring well, even though it's an attempt to inform someone else of a valid point.
You may be thinking of Wilckodontics. From what I could tell, they don't really go into depth on their website, but what they do is place braces and then irritate the bone (essentially drill holes ("scar" the bone) in strategic spots). During the healing from this insult, osteoclastic activity is increased... accelerating the remodeling of bone. As the bone remodels, it can respond more quickly to PDL forces than it normally would. I think I first heard about this in the context of military folks who needed orthodontics, but needed results quickly.

That said, .secure seems like a poor solution in search of a problem.
Keep us posted. Keep up the good work.
Ask HN: Any examples of a proper website plan/spec. document?
Ideas fly through the tech community in droves. Many startups were born/died because of great/poor website planning and design. I have yet to see a smart document that effectively describes a website plan to both the designers and then the programmers (who may or may not be founders or employees). It's clearly quite important in the case of SAAS or web apps.

Does anyone have any samples of GOOD QUALITY documents which can guide personnel through this critical task? With so much frank and open dialog these days, perhaps someone has seen a good example posted in a blog post which I missed?
Inflatable seems much more sensible to me. Especially when you consider the work in some of the self-healing plastics, etc which could seal over in the case of small, high-speed impacts.
dude, this is effing awesome, there's some classic mixes here that I thought I'd never hear again... thank you!

Want Your Startup Name in the Dictionary? Choose Wisely
So none of the responsibility of what happened belongs to the OP?

I am not siding with his former employer, but anyone who has any work experience knows that they should make sure the cheques have cleared as soon as they have an idea that they want to leave.

It's a cynical view, but people should always expect a company to be less than cooperative once they leave, even when the company is in the wrong. I have found this to be even more true when dealing with smaller companies and startups.

When money is involved, it's better to be realistic than idealistic.

It's your own responsibility to tie up loose ends before you leave. After you leave, you should work with the assumption that you'll be the only adult at the table when dealing with your former employer.

I don't really see the big deal about suits. I look good in them, and would wear them more but for the cost of acquiring and maintaining them.

Many folks, particularly in IT, dress like muppets. We have one guy who routinely wears track suits in the office, for example. It doesn't give off a good impression.
Aren't you just angry because your girlfriend keeps seeing that penile enlargement ad every time she uses your computer? It sure bothers me!

All kidding aside, I'd say that the minute you start paying for Google's search engine, email, docs and other services you are automatically entitled to them blocking ads from AdSense-powered sites. Until then I can't see how someone can complain given the value received. Fair trade.

I've also never heard about anyone ever signing something like that at an exit interview. Why on Earth would someone sign something like that anyways? At my last job at BAE:IS they tried to get me to sign an NDA when I left, but I had to refuse for various reasons and eventually they were satisfied with a nice note explaining those reasons paper clipped to the NDA form in my file.
"Keeping your employees happy is also important. Keeping ex-employees happy is really not that important."

I wonder if the people making the "lets not pay him" decision have discussed the issue with the people who are hiring their next employees for them? (Or the managers who're asking existing employees to refer friends with referal bonuses of now dubious reliability?)
Just for kicks, I snapped a screen shot of the relevant page (power + home buttons) and OCR'd the image.

The layered approach is how all space transport is shielded - micrometeorites puncture the 1st layer (pinhole) and turn to dust/gas, spatter against the 2nd layer harmlessly.
You'll have to do 'patch duty' periodically on the outer balloon, but again its usually only pinholes to deal with, leaks are small and easily found, trivial to fix.
The resources are created by the population. Metals are infinitely recyclable. So is water (distribution is the problem, not existence, and distribution can be solved if you have people who need it and are willing to do the work).

You don't need oil to make plastic - you can literally make it out of air (although it's harder, all the atoms necessary are in air).

All types of energy are more or less interchangeable, If one runs out, switch to a different one.

Animals use resources they find. Humans create those resources.
I'm really interested to see how this plays out.

There's currently no way to modulate your volume in social media posts. So "here's a cute photo of my cat" ranks the same as "I really need some help on this". FaceBook amplifies signals that friends like, but this feature allows the poster to amplify as well.

But it uses money, and it's weird to mix money and friend relationships, so... I'm really interested to see how this plays out.

Do those that do the hiring communicate with each other about especially bad behavior by employees?

You begin with a reductio ad ridiculum argument and segue into a spiel about employers' and employees' being aligned. I'm not sure whether your post earnestly reflects your position or was intended as a satire of the views of stereotypical Ayn-Rand-ites ("To the Gulch!").

Obviously, it's difficult to buy into the idea that employers' and employees' interests are aligned when business owners recoil in horror at the notion of having to meet once a week with the equivalent of shop stewards and bridle at having to explain why they need to lay off chunks of their workforce on short notice.
