It's interesting to see the transition from physical models to blue screen based action. The models of the trains and the DeLorean are great and remarkably intricate, whilst the blue screen shots are being used for some of the more difficult flying scenes.

Business logic should always be the dominating force. This is often forgotten and the time you have 'real' users using the system it is too late to make sweeping changes.

Alternative : Try Venture capitalist at work by Tarang Shah

Nice post. IMHO, one of the biggest problem India is facing (or will face in the near future) is the quality of education. Our so called professional colleges have been churning out millions of Engineers and MBAs every year, but only a few of them are employable. The younger generation sees education as just a way to get a job to make money. The private managements which run the colleges consider education as a lucrative money making business.

This has to change. We may be having some IITs and IIMs which might be making us proud, but if we want to sustain development and create a strong workforce, then we have to start working from the beginning. Revamp the courses at schools. Throw away the age-old syllabuses and bring in new generation ones.

But in a country where a cartoon of a political figure caused one of the biggest uproars of recent times, I can only express my sympathy to the future generations.
True, but the most important thing is that it worked.

This scenario is actually daunting for most small sites: it's four days out, you're about to get tons of traffic, and keep it to yourself :)

Setting up Google-load-capable infrastructure in 4 days is trivial for some you on hackernews, but non-trivial for others.

Cloudflare sounds like a convenient, drop-in solution for when you don't know how to configuring your own reverse-proxy.
It's weird how much time they spend with copying (talking) numbers back and forth over a crappy voice connection. Wouldn't a simple text chat (IRC maybe) make this way more efficient and less error prone?
Congrats, great to see this in the App Store. Notice though if you are a beta user of Cobook, you need to delete the beta before you can install it from the Mac App Store.
Crazy! Back to The Future was released in mid-1985 and things have changed a lot. The models, the camera equipment... makes you appreciate the film even more knowing how it was put together.
I can understand where you're coming from, but I think you lack empathy and experience. If you like, send me a copy of every piece of creative work you've ever produced -- songs, poems, articles, computer programs, graphics, whatever -- and I'll just go ahead and post it wherever I want without giving you any attribution. If you can tell me you're OK with that, I'll modify my opinion: rather than saying you lack empathy, I'll say you have a very different worldview than anyone I know, and I'll acknowledge that, under your worldview, your opinion is entirely consistent and reasonable.
At least at the hiring committees meetings that I've been at, people who advance that point are told, "so let them get more experience, and they can try again in a year or two".

Hiring the untalented can seriously demotivate the rest of the team; no company has the obligation to hire untalented people and hope they get better. As saying goes, "hope is not a strategy".

Can't vouch for LXC or VServer, but OpenVZ is well documented and I was up and running with it within days. I still have a dev server that's been happily running for about 5 years. Users get root access to a 'container' which has some limits imposed upon it. They can do as they please. I don't have to worry about them messing up the host (, they are trusted users though.) The file system is easy to back up, as it's reachable from the host. The server itself doesn't support hardware Virtualisation so it's a nice fit.
This looks really good, dont really like any of the current address book alternatives for OSX.

This feels inevitable for HP. After various takeovers and the economic climate (in particular on their PC division) it seems an easy decision. Most of the redundancies will be made up of early retirement, but always seems like a loss of talent. There must be some veterans there with 40/50 years in the business.
ANNUNAKI AND GOLD TRAIL,.flv
Ok. You won. I'm scared.

I have been wondering why there is not organization that makes it easy in 2012 to have a company that operates across several countries. I thought that simply creating a legal framework was taking some time but that finally legislators would manage to get there, they are just lagging behind.

But this... I don't want this. I don't want a private justice, I don't want "arbitration" to become the norm in the way conflicts are handled in the global village. No, this must not happen, this is the root of too many dystopian visions.

Arbitration : this artificial "court" decides arbitrarily who is right and once this is done, the initial dispute is still there. If the "loser" does not accept the arbitration, you still have to go to court. It solves nothing.

You know what is the next step ? A private police to enforce the decision of the arbitration court. You would sign in the initial agreement all the necessary authorizations for that. It would work. It would be legal. And even if illegal, an army of lawyers would delay several years the application of the real law.

I don't want that.

But on the other hand, that's likely only ever applied in instances where a person offersactual legal services to others without being admitted to the bar.

Having worked service jobs in the past, I know that the population of the area where I worked was at least 70% lawyers, judging by the number of people who'd threaten to sue me/the business/the owners/unrelated parties when they didn't get what they wanted.
I'd say Facebook is more like the front of your fridge (cool pictures of your friends/kids), plus your kitchen notice board (that wedding invitation from last year, that save the date card for next year etc) - the shoebox that you put all that stuff in, and never really sort, plus the photo album ;-)
This kind of reasoning makes the same presupposition as the article's author. But it is ironic that he mentions musicians--a professional musician's tools, like a programmer's are basically high quality versions of the amateur's.

The conjecture about keyboards being suboptimal is verifibly true, but that does not automatically extend to the machine as well. I also suspect coding experiences will be pretty subjective.
"Such devices, which continually record what the user is doing, will be available by 2014 or 2015, he said."

I disagree. Not that I think Zuck = Jobs, but I disagree with the "absolutely not" portion. I mean, Jobs post-NeXT is not the same person as pre-NeXT Jobs. From what I've read, Zuckerberg at this IPO is a very different person from the Zuckerberg at the early years of Facebook and I don't think his growth is stopping here. I don't think it's fair to be comparing these two figures at this point.

1. A statement that the photo was not public domain?
2. A way to contact the author with the clear purpose of license it?

I can understand that someone might react against seeing their work all over the Internet used for free, and use the DMCA to prevent that. I can also understand a generous reaction, and feeling flatter instead.

While I don't agree with Ms. Borderline, I do think that if I am going to react handing take down notices, providing a way to buy the image up front it is a fair preventive measure.

After all, the internet is like a world wide getto street, and it would be naive to leave my precious jacket out night after night and be surpriced that someone finally run away with it. Attaching a price sign to it at least, and some people might respect it, while others will actually consider buying it as initial offer as oppose to a legal threat.
You might want to work on your copy. I read your whole homepage several times, and still can't figure out what it is that your product does.

You start off with: "Moki uses Twitter to make your social recruiting smarter"

OK. How? Is this your big selling point? As a guy off the streat, I have trouble even parsing that, let alone coming up with what it might mean or how it would help me (or even if this is a problem I have).

So, thus far we know that "Twitter" seems to be a big deal for your thing. You have a "why twitter" thing taking up the rest of the space above the fold:

"On Twitter, we tend to follow people we trust. And if your team follows an applicant, that's a sign they could be a great hire"

Is that true? As a job seeker, would I need to be following people on Twitter for your thing to work? As an employer, would I need to be following people on Twitter for your thing to work?

Onward, below the fold is a bunch of talk about applications, job boards, etc. But still no word on what your thing does that sets it apart (and never another mention of Twitter anywhere). I see things that look like features, but it all seems like pretty generic job-board stuff.

So yeah, here I am having read everything there is to read about your thing, with no real understanding of what it is or whether it would help me.

How about instead, above the fold, explaining in a few bullet points:

- What your thing is
- Why I need it
- How it works

Then, you can tell me about Twitter below the fold.

(oh, and since you seem to be here, how about explaining to us here at HN what your thing does, why we need it, and how it works!)

although i think "On Twitter, we tend to follow people we trust.

"Flexible working" was the Ministry of Defence (UK)'s solution for overcrowding while I was working there. Result? People just worked at the same desk anyway. The junior people (ie me) had to move around a lot to fill in gaps when someone was absent.

This looks to be quite a different approach. Lots of little corners that you can tuck yourself away in. I'm not sure I'd like to work in that environment though. A big desktop monitor is useful, and working with a laptop actually on your lap is really uncomfortable. I'd imagine that if I was in that environment I'd either stick to a proper desk all the time or find that I wasn't really getting much actual work done while I lounged on a sofa.

You mention a few things that you were concerned about:

"That it would reduce the perceived value of my app, that it would upset other customers who missed the discount and that the support burden would be too high."

But you don't talk about how these concerns played out after the sale. Would love to hear your thoughts on how valid these concerns were.

Actually, there have been fair use decisions when an entire work was used non-commercially:

http://www.wired.com/threatlevel/2011/06/fair-use-defense/

I'm not saying that's the case here, but whether the use was commercial or not is one of the four factors considered when deciding fair use.
Lately I've been thinking about the concept of config management, and I've come to some conclusions:

1) Configuration management has the same problem object oriented programming and imperative programming have: state is intermixed with identity and behavoiur. This makes it more difficult to reason about.

2) Configuration management is too low level: One should not describe the state of configuration to keep, but the desided behavoiur of the system. The configuration part should be automatically derived.

3) Configuration management breaks locality: If a config manager is running, the point of change of the system is not in the config files anymore. If I have a problem and the documented solution tells me to change a particular configuration, an additional step is added toward the solution. Also, if something doesn't work as expected, configuration management must be additionally investigated as a possible source for the problem.

Why develop something nobody needs? (Seriously, I think you meant needle-less.)
This is funny.

So there are people in this world that do not live up to your standards and react with self-righteousness (btw. <sarcasm>shocking</sarcasm>) and you suggest the right way to respond to it.

Isn't that self-righteous on its own?
1. Yes I am an anarcho-capitalist and this is the reason I started the company.

2. Judge Judy is indeed arbitration, where parties waive their right for privacy in return for a free arbitration.

3. Ancapistan would fundamentally be a Kritarchy (rule of judges), so arbitrator reputation is crucial and case law can develop from that. Also, even "ex aequo et bono" arbitration simply means applying contract law in practice.

I've read at least two of those, and, in particular, "Switch" is not an awful read. "The rider and the elephant" is certainly not a new idea (buddhists have been saying a similar thing for millenia), but it gives you a modern framework around it to act on.

Hi Jason, thanks very much for the feedback - I really appreciate it. It sounds like the copy is definitely something I need to get right.

And in answer to your question
- It's a recruiting platform like The Resumator, or Jobvite, but with a job board built in. It also adds social data to job listings and to job applications - so each job listing will also show a list of people who recommend working there. If you're an employer, when people apply for you job, it shows you a list of your team members who choose to follow the applicant on Twitter.

Companies could find it useful because recruiting is extremely hard - there's a low signal to noise ratio, so you might get lots of job applications from people who aren't really suitable, and only a few applications from people who are great. Moki helps you spot the people who are most likely to fit in quicker. Job seekers can find it useful because jobs listed aren't from recruitment agencies - they're from the actual company themselves - you can see a profile page of the company that explains their culture, office & perks and you can see a list of people who recommend working there.

It works, hopefully, seamlessly - companies list jobs in the same way they would with a regular job board and people apply for jobs directly on Moki, filling in a form on the site. The only difference is that you need to log in through Twitter to sign up. Nothing is ever automatically tweeted from their account.

As you can see - I've not quite found a way to word the concept elegantly yet. Thanks again for the feedback - I genuinely appreciate it.
