I think you managed to sum up the ignorance of startup culture nicely there.
How on earth did I go so long without knowing of that beauty?

Between that and this [1] I might be done until the brain scanners arrive.

I saw the link, and thought that's what it would be. Just that it synced with Evernote instead of Amazon or whatever.

Then I saw 'new iOS app' in the copy and my expectations disappeared. :(
Dr. Insel's quote wasn't the part that sounded crank-ish.
Oh, also: while I have no idea how this is actually implemented, under perfect conditions it's possible that this might be able to balloon your container in response to a page fault. That means you get instant scaling, rather than the couple of minutes it takes to spin new VM instances up.
Ok - here is one clone app of the original: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/cute-textpics/id537228845?mt=...

So if they did something illegal, then it should be easy to remove it iTunes App store. Correct?
Theres nothing on that article that says a team is on a deathmarch, unless you posted the URL wrong. Just because a project got re-allocated (I don't even know what project this is, btw) doesn't mean the engineers were fired or something. :-/
That's a very good point. Genetic diversity brings good and bad.
The debate wasn't, isn't, has never been about whether "commercial speech is First Amendment speech."

The debate is whether you have evidence to support your claims that it's a very risky and legally actionable idea to offer a refund if people don't see results. Assuming that the offer is truthful.

You have not offered any.

You've found one case where a person was sued for hawking a cancer cure and rapid weight loss, but even so, the lawsuits were over flat out lies inherent in the product and not any kind of results-or-money-back guarantee.

It's pretty amazing. No matter how often I ask for evidence for this assertion of yours, you manage to change the topic. I salute you. You would make an excellent press secretary.
Agree with your basic point, but they won't raise more than ~650k because they've set maximums on all of the (normal) tiers. I think this is actually a great thing as there have been a number of kickstarters that have been victims of their own success because they've been oversubscribed beyond what can actually be delivered in a realistic timeframe. IMO most kickstarters that aren't pure digital distribution should have a limit of ~3x their funding level.
This is not true. A wave propagates both in time and space. You're mixing these two. A negative frequency is like a wave travelling backwards in time, not left/right spatial direction.
In Australia comsec.com.au, large financial institution. Solid financials. Easy to transfer money in and out. Has a regular bank account with it that earns above 4% interest when my money isn't in stocks.

In the USA scottrade.com, colleague uses them. Read some reviews of them vs etrade, tdameritrade etc. And scottrade has the least evil reviews based on my limited sample of what I read.
Is a -2 Hz wave travelling to the right the same as a 2 Hz save travelling to the right, but going backwards in time?

Could there be something to John G. Cramer's transactional interpretation of Quantum Mechanics? Instead of probability waves collapsing instantaneously, could everything be mediated by photons going backwards in time?
Don't know about you, but with my hourly rate wasting 2 whole days on looking for a way to avoid a 99 dollar fee does not make sense ...
Ah, they were around 30-50USD on ebay last time I looked; thanks for the tip.
I believe it's also somewhat regulated by the government- we don't allow just anybody to play around with polio in their lab.

Here's an Asteroids clone I wrote in Clojure a few years back, which has less than 400 lines and some neat stuff like procedurally generated 3D asteroids: https://github.com/ztellman/penumbra/blob/master/test/exampl...

Some of the design decisions are discussed in detail at http://ideolalia.com/creating-a-simple-game-in-clojure
Probably because the main kickstarter page was submitted yesterday and didn't hit the front page. For whatever reason, it caught on this time.
It's not just an issue of trust.

We'd have to trust you and github and anyone capable of hacking into your github account.

Also there are just some good habits to have. I don't give my passwords to people, even if I trust them.
From the Wikipedia article on Idempotence [1]:

Similarly, changing a customer's address is typically
idempotent, because the final address will be the same
no matter how many times it is submitted.

So, even if in one case there's an internal state change (going from an old address to a new one) whereas in the other there is not (going from the new address to the new one again), it is commonly considered idempotent because the end result is the same.

May be in part because the parent is paraphrasing, ie, its from another context, and missing the original frame. Worth checking out, though, original discussion i believe is here.

Does evernote not allow you to fix the page manually? (I don't use it.) The JotNot Pro app I bought for a dollar allows one to slide the corners around and reskews the image as appropriate, with some amount of auto detection as well.
You might want to consider including something about how passing objects between functions can be by reference or value for object oriented Javascript programming.
And if a kid gets killed by a seatbelt, do we say that we shouldn't have seatbelt laws? The data is pretty clear that universal vaccination is less harmful than the alternatives.
At the turn of the 19th century, physicists were quite sure that they had a complete model of the universe, with just two minor unsolved problems: The aberration of light / michelson-morley experiment (which required the theory of relativity to explain), black body radiation (which was eventually explained by quantum mechanics). Actually solving these unsolved problems turned physics on its head.

Negative frequency light might be just a weird artifact. Or it might turn physics on its head. I'd put money on the former, though I hope for the latter.

edit: fix typo "native frequency" -> "negative frequency"
Neat, but it seems to make an http request for every frame. Unclear if requests caches that, but I did get a socket error on KeyboardInterrupt so I don't think so.
I'm surprised more startups aren't using Rackspace, and that Moniker didn't even make the list of registrars.
It's more a blow to UIWebView than anything... it's slower than native OS calls, but it doesn't have to be that way forever.
Thanks! We built it with Codeigniter (PHP) and MySQL for the DB. There's also a fair bit of Javascript, and we used LESS for the styles.
take a look at web2py.com. I used it in developing gowork.com.ng and I had no issues, worked perfectly on localhost and also on app engine. It has no inbuilt module for FB integration but you can try Janrain
The same thing you tell a parent of a child that dies of pertussis caught from an unvaccinated schoolmate. I am sympathetic to exceptions to vaccination, but only those that accept the science. When pseudoscientific twaddle preys on the natural fears of parents, it has transcended bafflegab and is flirting with actual evil.
I think it is easy for us to agree in that, from the client's point of view, logging out of a website is idempotent.

Now, you got a point about idempotence from the server's point of view. However, it would take a _badly_ programmed website for the logout operation to _not_ be idempotent. Sending notifications, updating counter, etc. _without first checking if the user is really logged in or not_ is simply moronic. This simple check is what would turn the logout operation into an idempotent one in the server too.
How much do you hate winter?
When you first release a product/feature, the people that are going to really use it are the "early adopter" crowd. Once they embrace it, then you can spend the capital to roll it out to the later adopters. I'd be willing to bet that Android has far fewer early adopters than iOS.
A Kickstarter gone wrong
The danger in building a beautiful campus is that you attract people who like beautiful campuses.
Because even though iOS has fewer users, those users are more valuable. They tend to fall into higher income brackets and be higher spenders.
As someone who made a similar move years ago, the answer is, as always: it depends.

What precisely do you expect to gain from moving? Do you already know people in SF who are well connected and can introduce you to potential investors or partners? Do you have such connections back in NYC?

Supposedly NYC is experience a tech startup renaissance, or, at least, so everyone claims over there. Have you seen evidence of this? Have you participated in it?

If you are just a founder with a laptop, a website and a movile app, but with no revenue, visitors, or users, and you are not really plugged in to the larger tech community around you in NY, then what evidence is there that you would be plugged in to the larger tech community around you in SF?
Who didn't lose a lot of time on 7th and 8th grade to something? That age is defined by being a lost time for the most of us.
I like snow. I generally dislike cold if there isn't any snow. I grew up in New York so I'm used to it.
Im using the UX31A daily since ca. 1 month... ive red the complaints about backlight bleeding and the 1mm higher cassis on the left while opened - laughable in my view. I am absolutely satisfied so far, great Performance, great Keyboard and an amazing high resolution ips screen which is also great for working outside...

Definately prefer it to any current MBA.
The future of the app is journal sharing. To prepare for that it helps to build a homogenous user base.

Also, I have more Paleo features coming. There will be a paleo food starter DB and other features that will differentiate it from generic apps.
How much do you know about the various diseases that are vaccinated against?

Rabies, for example? Before treatments were developed, rabies had an essentially 100% mortality rate. (Though I believe the rabies vaccine is usually administered to animals, rather than humans)

How about smallpox? Historically, ~30% mortality.

I don't know about you, but I've never heard of vaccines causing 30% mortality.
It's a tragedy. It's horrible that what we have is the best we can do. We're putting lots of research and funding into making vaccines and treatments even safer. I really wish there were a better way to prevent the mass epidemics which will happen if we don't have vaccines. Nothing we do can replace your child. We can offer counseling if you want someone to talk to, and of course our heart-most sorrow.

Now, what would you tell the parents of the children in iron lungs that got polio because we decided that we couldn't mandate vaccinations?
`sl` also takes arguments, which change the shape and size of that damn locomotive: -a -l -F

It's a fun, masochistic joke, but I seriously encourage everyone to install it (it's available on Homebrew, if you're an OS X user). Every time you do an `sl` you must immediately resolve to be more careful when doing things on terminal. It `ls` is harmless, but what if it was `rm`?
I agree, I wish they just sold them separately so you tag random objects in the world.
The new models still have the thinklight.
The Hackers Dictionary by ESR?
A git server frontend is really about three things (I would say in this order)
1 Providing permissions to access the repository
2 Providing a visual way to browse the source code and link to the source code (sha X, file Y, line Z)
3 Slap features on top of the above two (bug management, code analysis, doc generation, auto publishing like gh_pages (awesome btw!), code review, task analysis, etc etc

Really checkout gitolites permissions. The ability to create devs into group (test/release/intern) and then on top of that apply 'R', 'W', '+', to any or specific branches and or files creates an expressive set of rules.

When I was working on GitHaven I also had a simplistic permissions model like GitHub has. But the more I talked with end users the more edge cases I found and the more I realized how the permissions is really a core bit of the thing I was building and if I were to hack on GitHaven again I would either built it on top of gitolite or build something just as expressive, if not more.

P.S. set your email in your HN account. As I have spent too much time thinking about this problem I would be happy to buy you a virtual beer on facetime or whatnot to share what I have learned about the problem if your interested.

Edit: from the description it sounds like it is already built on top of Gitolite :) So making a fully feature UI for their permissions should be easy.
The principle of the matter may very well be more important in delinka's mind.
I would totally have paid them $5 just to support the fascinating blog posts on blog.okcupid.com, even though I don't use okcupid itself. Match.com let that blog die after the buyout, so there's no reason for me to support match.com.
And today it's Javascript. Same problem. Running someone else's code without reading it first.

Why?

Because people want to see a "doodle" or some other silly graphic.

Truthfully, it's gotten worse: "Please enable Javascript." "You need to enable Javascript to use this website." (9 times out of 10, that's a lie.)

In the 1980's, it was telling people to run some ANSI codes through printf to see a blinking Christmas Tree.
It's even worse that the worse you suggest from my worse suggestion! Viewing angles on the new screens are pitiful, with very rapid colour representation as you move out of the small sweet spot. The only thing I have found any improvement on is that my 2012 screen is brighter than my 2007 screen - sufficiently bright that I can actually use it ourdoors.

The new keyboards are more subjective - unlike the screens which I can't imagine anyone defending. I got the backlit keyboard on my new system and am happy with it - the old thinklight is still present so I switch between the modes as suits my whims but mainly use the backlit mode. When you press Fn-Space it cycles between keyboard backlight low, high, then thinklight (with keyboard off) and finally all off.

On the 6 versus 7 rows, I am okay with the changes. But then I'm not that big of a Thinkpad keyboard snob.
It is truly annoying that you have to totally whitelist their domain even after step D in order to see the site. Some of us want to selectively enable each flash applet, dangit. #KidsGetOffMyLawn

One of the most compelling feature of using GitHub for private repositories is developers already know how to use it, already have accounts etc. GitHub has a nice growing moat in that regard.
Another option is Repository Hosting, which offers unlimited repositories and users for a flat fee, and just limits your storage.

Why is bitbucket not open source?
Almost no adults who promote universal vaccinations for children are up to date on their own vaccinations.

Doubt this? Survey the people at your office about their last boosters for each vaccine of interest.

Survey of whether adults have EVER had a Hep B vaccine:

http://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/preview/mmwrhtml/mm5518a3.htm#tab

Total average: 34.6% of all US adults surveyed. That's much lower than the rate at these schools.

Have you had your adult booster for measles? Only one dose was given to children before 1996. This is now known to be inadequate. Those born before 1996 who have had no booster may consider themselves among of the inadequately vaccinated.

"... than stealing it for personal use ..."

As long as both instances are stealing, I have no problem. Relative badness is another debate, but I doubt we'd disagree much on that.
I'm addicted to moleskine notebooks - I have many, I'll certainly be getting this one as well!
Thank you for the heads up. I must say I've seen worse projects but I won't argue with the points you raised.

In general I think that compared to the alternatives Gitlab is the least complex to understand and install. Of course that doesn't mean it is perfect or easy. These two lines took us a few hours: https://github.com/gitlabhq/gitlabhq/pull/1263

I think the Gitlab author already did an awesome job and luckily there are many people sending in pull request, already more than 1200!

We try contribute our part. With the growth of Gitlab.io our contributions should grow as well.
"Idempotence is the property of certain operations in mathematics and computer science, that they can be applied multiple times without changing the result beyond the initial application."[1]

GoDaddy still has a lot of mindshare, while far fewer people have actually heard the horror stories. And at least some of the people who hear the horror stories will figure it won't happen to them, or that it only happens to people doing something wrong, the same way they figure a PayPal horror story won't happen to them.
Almost enough to make me go back to Moleskine (love the notebooks, but not being able to easily digitize was a problem.)
I also added a security check to the list of planned contributions on gitlab.io
It's worth it to me (#623). I use Evernote pretty heavily, but there are times where paper wins out (i.e. dead batteries and meetings where being on a phone/tablet could be frowned upon).

What I also enjoy about this idea is that it is like a physical version of Paper By 53. Although now instead of emailing Evernote my sketches via paper I can now snap a picture from Evernote itself. Seems like an interesting product tie-in that has me wanting it more than I want money.
I love Moleskine, but that just made me all the more sceptical about the "optimized" dotted paper pattern. That just screams gimmick to me, especially looking at the picture provided.

If it does make a significant usability difference, that would be pretty cool and I'd love to get some insight into why dotted lines would be simpler for image processing software to work with than straight lines, but... For now, I'm gonna keep on trying to bury myself with post-it notes...
Sad to see so few startups using Gandi as a registrar.

Also sad to not see StartCom on the SSL list at all.

What's your opinion of Livescribe?

I'm also a paper note taker but I don't see myself moving to Livescribe (though I haven't tried it) or taking photos of pages in Evernote. I'm pretty organized, though, so I'm not dying to have everything digitized.
I'm curious why you wouldn't use <!doctype html>? Are you using something in XHTML that's deprecated in HTML5? Those are few and far between.
for one, the paper has alignment dots that evernote uses to square the image perfectly even if the camera is held askew.

That's because the old high-end screens are IPS. That generally implies better viewing angles, contrast ratios and color reproduction.
A thousand times this.

Normal (i.e. non-artists/designers) don't care. I present Craig's List as exhibit A.
The Lisp code used multiple dispatch to handle collisions between objects, whereas your Clojure code instead uses list comprehensions to generate pairs of colliding objects by type. I know Clojure also supports multiple dispatch, so I'm wondering if you could comment on this design decision.
Behind the scenes: how Unbounce launched
Very possibly, but who knows; per the above on disruptive innovations, Amazon almost certainly doesn't.

I personally don't have a feel for enterprise archival requirements (vs. backups), but I do know there are a whole lot of grandparents out there with indifferently stored digital media of their grand-kids (I know two in particular :-); the right middlemen plus a perception of enough permanent losses of the irreplaceable "precious moments" and AWS might see some serious business from this in the long term.
He was addicted to martial arts. If you think about it for a second it makes sense. The martial arts thing was the same as the starcraft thing, just a different subject. If you consider that he has an obsessive disorder that presents as addiction, you can put those two things under the same umbrella. Obsession can seem like discipline.
