I'm from South Australia, so when I'm near exceptionally popular restaurants, it's usually while travelling so I have a fixed window and won't usually have locked that window in until a week or two beforehand.

And the reason I hate calling is that I imagine I'm one of a string of no-chance hopefuls just being a nuisance. And the staff are on the other end thinking "Doesn't this guy know who we are?! You're two months late, bozo."

Would love a web-based system to get around all this!

My mom is a professor of early childhood education with decades of experience and I have discussed the show with her. While Super Nanny has all the obviously silly trappings of a reality TV show, the essentials of her disciplinary techniques are accurate to the modern understanding of how children develop and how they should be disciplined.

The fundamental misunderstanding in many homes is that discipline involves punishment. Discipline is in reality the process of teaching children how to manage themselves within society's rules. It is inherent in all aspects of child rearing. The most important aspect of discipline is to create and maintain a supportive, structured, healthy environment--and this is usually where Super Nanny starts: healthy meals at regular times, a set schedule every day, and clear rules that are enforced consistently.

So how to enforce the rules? Two recent developments in the understanding of childhood development pertain. First, the most important thing to a child is the attention and support of their parents. Therefore supportive attention is the greatest coin in enforcing discipline. This is why "time out" works so well.

Second, children--especially young children--learn far more from observation than they do from interaction. (Observation and recording is basically how the brain "boot-straps" the human mind in the first few years of life.) So parents should always model appropriate behaviors. This is why Super Nanny exhorts parents to always remain calm but firm. Parents who freak out teach kids that it's ok to freak out.

So consider spanking: it delivers a mixed message. The interaction is a negative reinforcement, but a) the parent is paying a lot of attention to the kid, and b) the parent is modeling that striking another person is sometimes an ok thing to do.

How are you guys making the Explanation videos like the one on the prose website or the the substance.io website? Is it some open source tool where you can provide the strings or just low level flash tweens or some thing?
I guess I'm more sympathetic in this case because of the nature of the data: they're classified listings. The dynamic there is that landlords actually want lots of people to see their ad, and apartment hunters want to see as many good options as possible. So in this case, CL is a portal for that, but has set its policy to be such that it prevents the access both the landlords and the apt hunters want.

Sure, CL is in its right as a for-profit company to not share info. But it's not in the best interest of the people who post (i.e. the generators of that data). It's frustrating that CL gets to tout itself as some uniquely altruistic for-profit company that's not all about maximizing profit and more focused on the good of its users, then refuses to give the posters more exposure for the sake of keeping their monopoly. Then they automatically assume that every other competitor out there is some greedy capitalist trying to profit off the community, which it doesn't seem like PadMapper has done. It's got a lot of users, but not much of a profit model, and it's been this way for years.

IMHO, its not fair to compare Go libraries (at this stage) with the more mature implementation of libraries in C++ and Java. That will come with adoption, but even at this early stage, the set of libraries that come with go offer a lot of power.

Agreed Java came out of the gates with a good (??) desktop programming library. Google Go's library on the other hand is very web oriented with the building blocks of http, templating, json all woven in - maybe its a better approach to take, seeing how desktop programming is fast disintegrating into a proprietary, incompatible mess with bottle windows (metro) and apple (ios) locking up their environments.

I agree heartily with the zen metaphor, when programming in Go, I find the language recedes to the background and allows me to focus on the task at hand. That's the hallmark of a great language design.

The very very very fast compilation times (you have to experience this to believe it), helps a lot. Gives it the fast turnaround of a scripting language without any loss of power/ expressiveness.

This role is usually filled by the promoter. The promoter model actually is fairly smart, they maintain local offices in each areas and are responsible for knowing if a show will work in a region, and then booking it accordingly and taking care of advertising and PR.

Now then, of course, companies like LN are forming that are promoter/venue/manager combos and it gets a bit iffy.
It is also possible, that they show you a cached price first and one step before the confirmation they check back with the airline if they price really is the same. In your case the airline might have increased the fare, for whatever reason, shortly before you started your booking process.

> Spanking is not "violence".

Yes it is.

> Spanking has been done since the beginning of time.

Irrelevant. Slavery has existed since the beginning of time, that doesn't justify it. Racism has existed since the beginning of time, that doesn't justify it. Appeals to tradition are not a sound argument.

Apple : 0 | Flashback trojan : 1 , Apple admits malware defeat
I'm with the grandparent. Every language that I've used that was created after C has included exceptions, and never once have I missed checking errno.

I can understand why, coming from a C++ context, you'd want to avoid them like the plague, but other languages (Python, Java, Smalltalk, ...) do a good job of making them a first-class citizen in the language, which saves a LOT of boilerplate typing. Seeing call stacks implementing a half-assed exception catching mechanism makes me sad. (Okay, Java only gets half credit here, since its checked exceptions inflict a different kind of boilerplate, but my larger point remains.)

Lack of exceptions is half the reason I'm not interested in writing Go code yet. The other half is that anything that seriously intends to replace C++ does need an escape hatch to allow manual memory management for when the GC's one-size-fits-all approach is simply a poor fit. For a language whose goal was explicitly to replace C++, this is an odd place to be tone deaf. I'm disappointed to see an attitude of "haha stupid C++ programmers don't understand that programmer efficiency is more important than CPU efficiency," instead of realizing that there are valid use cases where you do need to care about this and addressing them.

Which is unfortunate.

Amazing, I'm quite surprised this hasn't been picked up by larger media outlets.

Whilst there's nothing wrong with a 3rd party service accessing a publicly available web-site; for my ISP to _willingly_ on-sell my web access history to a 3rd party service managed outside Australia could well be illegal.

I hope Telstra doesn't just get let off the hook for this.
Reminds me of foursquare. I can't, for the life of me, get it to post pictures to my facebook feed any longer. I've tried reinstalling, posting with a camera picture, posting with a gallery picture, relinking facebook, tapping the icon on and off, making sure picture is public, etc..

I'm pretty sure they disabled this functionality so they can show the map instead which gets them more clicks into their site proper and helps their traffic. Really pisses me off because I take a picture every check in and think they are more interesting and don't think people should be forced into foursquare to view them and don't want to have to post them separately - then in their marketing material for the new face lift they even show a picture of a facebook post with a picture. Lies.
The OP has seriously misunderstood Malthus. Malthus never got to understand that resources are relative and prices too. That's the same problem with people saying we are doomed because oil is finishing: there will be alternatives, prices will go so high to incentive real research on alternative energies.

And the examples are mere examples of economic incentive, not even that clear if you ask me. But then, what do I know, I only studied this stuff.
With Facebook making this change, I guess anyone who is unaware of this and syncs their Facebook contacts to their phone (either directly or via apps) stands to lose the 'real' email addresses of their friends and especially once they sync back to their desktop/cloud/gmail etc!!
I'm 34. I started teaching myself software development when I was seven. I have done PC assembly, C, C++, OpenGL, Win32, MFC, OCaml, .NET, PHP, Python, Twisted, AS3, JavaScript, WordPress, CoffeeScript and other types of programming. I have suffered because of mistakes in the underlying platform implementation in some cases, but in my experience more often I am suffering because of fundamental design limitations of the platform.

People move on to the next thing because they know it solves fundamental engineering problems built in to the platform they are on that are causing constant problems and they are tired of suffering through that. Such as manual memory management or traditional threading.

For example, back in my C/C++ days, I worked on a number of projects that were threaded and manually memory managed. No matter how genius the team members were we always spent a significant amount of time either guarding against those types of issues or diagnosing them, or working on Make scripts or other build-related distractions.

So that was one reason why I moved to C#/.NET many years ago. The advantage of being able to access source code in open source projects, cost benefit and lack of vendor lock in moved me away from that.

Or for example my main project right now is based on Etherpad which was originally written in Rhino which is a Java-based JavaScript. They saved a lot of lines/characters of code by doing it in JavaScript originally which was good software engineering since less code means fewer defects and JavaScript runs on both the browser and server which is also helpful. However, it was built on Java which has dated overly complicated APIs and Rhino is an inferior JavaScript engine. And we can't get it to stop freezing up/crashing at random times, which according to one of the former Etherpad team members is normal.

So we are following the lead of Etherpad and converting the application to be based on Etherpad Lite which is a running on Node.js which is another next big thing. There are no threads, so I know that can't cause any freezing. The V8 memory management and code generation is state of the art. The system will use an order of magnitude fewer resources than the old one. The asynchronous Node execution model and APIs are obviously superior to Java. At least its obvious to me.
I haven't read Christensen in particular but there's another factor which could distinguish PCs and Phones.

PCs were in demand for more or less one quality, power (with screen resolution making maybe two). A phone is in demand for a multitude of qualities - size, power, batter life, screen resolution, ergonomics, etc. A PC that was twice the size, twice the power and half the price of its competitor could do well. Phone not so much.

With a multitude of constraints to combine, it's not surprising that software hardware integration happens. Cars are integrated systems more than a hundred years after their invention whereas you can make do buying different components for your house.

1.) What makes you think this isn't my "real" HN account? Long time lurker, new commentor. Unlike the founders you tear down, you're not using your real name or any identifiable email address or title/company you work for, "Moe." Afraid to put your name on your hateful remarks? Your account is just as throwaway as mine, you can easily create another vitriolic spewing alias safe from any repercussions. How about this - in the interest of open dialogue. Put your money where your big snarky mouth is. I'll say my real name if you say yours.

2.) Ahhhhh where did you offend me? Here for one.

This isn't random. I think it's mean spirited and insensitive that the Greplin/Cue founders and team members are here. Writing under their own names, their classmate from their YC batch is here writing under their own names and after what seems to be a brutal push with no sleep and lots of stress, all you do is swoop in with "bad management" snark and then swoop out.

Asides from that....

notice a pattern?

your nastiness and at best insensitivity and at worst malicious disregard of others is only matched by your arrogance and superiority.

and of course your oh so witty response to Leo Kim of Foursquare, when he rightly called you out on making tests to make mongo fail .... I reached the same conclusion he did.

Troll.

Let's disregard for a minute, your obvious gaping technical knowledge and your sheer lack of Silicon Valley business acumen. Let's say you managed you convince PG that you aren't a prick and somehow you get into YC. In your weekly meet ups would you ever say any of the above comments to peoples' faces?

HN is suppose to an extension of YC, a place where hackers can come together, take about things of interests, their own projects, start ups, etc. Your entire comment history is subversive to that and completely against the guidelines:

"Be civil. Don't say things you wouldn't say in a face to face conversation.

When disagreeing, please reply to the argument instead of calling names. E.g. "That is an idiotic thing to say; 1 + 1 is 2, not 3" can be shortened to "1 + 1 is 2, not 3." "

Hacker news would be better off without you, you and people like you are bringing a cynical, negative, schadenfreude cloud over what is suppose to a culture centered around idealism, optimism and wanting to change the world- not insulting those that do.
While the benchmarks look like there's an overall improvement, it's not instantly clear how much of an improvement they demonstrate. To more easily parse what the benchmarks are telling us, I calculated the percentage difference and the results appear really impressive.

Some of the most notable improvements listed below (results rounded, possibly misleading, but nonetheless awesome).

According to these benchmarks, 0.8 is approximately:

* 43% faster at reading files.

* 119% faster at reading 4096 byte buffers.

* 117% faster at writing 16384 byte buffers.

* 243% faster at http benchmark TYPE=bytes LENGTH=123456

* 506% faster at http benchmark TYPE=unicode LENGTH=55555

Be sure to note the actual figures though, as they are what really matter.

Did you not read where I stated that parenting consensus is that spanking has the risk of and tendency to cause harm? I also stated I would not be spanking my children as a result of the current understanding of its effects. Do you believe that means I am unable to express an opinion about spanking's specific effect on me?
The problem here is that it is not actually clear they had a contract. The timeline, as reported in the original post, appears to be this:

1. They email each other for a while.

2. They talk on the phone, and agree that he will do the work for $65/hour, and can start right away.

3. He emails them a contract, and they mail back that they will run it by their lawyers.

4. They contact him to say they have hired someone else.

We are told that #4 occurs after 3 days of work, which puts it 3 days after #2.

The key question, I think, is when did #3 happen? If #3 happened very soon after #2, then depending on exactly what was said in the emails and on the phone, it might be interpreted that #2 was just the negotiation, and the contract he emailed was his offer of terms and the work would not actually start until they accepted it.

To put it another way, I can easily imagine plausible fact situations where he is clearly in the right and they owe him for his work, and I can easily imagine plausible fact situations where they had no deal and he jumped the gun by starting work and they owe him nothing--and all of these fact situations would be consistent with the information we've been given.
Shrine fire: Separatist groups call general strike today
The takeaway ...

"Nokia smartphone market share was collapsing. The speed of collapse is now increasing. Nokia's handset unit is generating a loss. Those losses will not get bigger. Nokia's market share was in freefall in smartphones and dumbphones. That was before Elop's emergency measures of 'increasing sales by reducing sales'. That means Nokia's market shares will shrink even faster. The Nokia brand is badly burned by the past year, this latest Lumia upgrade disaster burns Nokia's brand even worse and causes even more of traditionally loyal Nokia carrier partners to bail."
That's exactly the reason it isn't secure.
Hopefully we'd never rewrite Haskell - there's enough people here that know it and Haskell is extremely easy to understand.

The team rewrote from Go to Python for various reasons:

* Tool support (debugging, etc) was supposedly poor

* The standard library wrappers were supposedly buggy

* They had to write a lot of wrappers and libraries themselves

* People on the team were already familiar with Python - after Atlassian's single "Go developer" left, there wasn't much reason to keep it
yeah, but why doesn't it respond with 404 as would be appropriate?

Could you explain the reference in your first paragraph?
Not sure what you mean by capabilities, even after looking back at the article. I like how Go's interfaces are sort of like Haskell's typeclasses, and I assume you meant something along those lines, but without parametric polymorphism you're still stuck with one of these three.

I can see myself making that statement, and obviously "can't imagine" is hyperbole, since I've written a lot of C, but I can't imagine taking seriously a new language that doesn't let me reuse data structures. I'm not sure what you mean by fixated on modeling with types.. I don't care about inheritance hierarchies, I just want a priority queue (and a multimap and a graph and a blocking queue oh wait that's yet another built-in special case) that doesn't force me to downcast like in Java 1.4.

Inefficient for whom? The only person who is affected by a low price is Louis CK. He already said that he's making more than enough money for himself so that he's content, so as a show of good will, he's trying his best to lower the cost of the tickets for his fans. For his fans, it's good. Sure, he could make more money by increasing the prices of his tickets, but he doesn't want to do that because he wants to pass along the cost savings to his fans.

Also, he recognizes that he can't lower the price and not deal with the scalper problem, so he is attacking it by doing his best to traffic anyone who tries to sell his tickets for above face value. If this works, then it solves the problem of the scalpers not being able to make a profit, and Louis CK being able to keep ticket prices low for his fans.

The idea that "true" fans are being locked out by "superficial" fans is just plain dumb. What makes a "true" fan vs a "superficial" fan? If I've only seen one of his concerts on HBO, that means that I'm not eligible to go see him live? Do we really need a pissing contests between fans to see who really "deserves" to go see him live? That's dumb.
