A short set of config options works well for most things though, rather than autodetect. After all most people will be packaging and need to control exact dependencies. I dont mind reading through a config file to tweak these settings.
My first thing with SSH is to generate unique keys per machine which never leave that machine (except in backups encrypted with a backup key unique to that machine). If my mba13 gets jacked, I'll be able to revoke all mba13 ssh keys without locking out mbp17 or imac27 or iphone5 or ipad3 keys. This is related to the private keys on same machine" thing you mention.

However, the other reason for segmenting keys is to do agent forwarding.

I might have a CLIENTA key and then allow ssh auth forwarding from a bastion host at CLIENTA to other CLIENTA machines. I also have a CLIENTB key and allow ssh auth forwarding from a bastion host at CLIENTB to other CLIENTB machines. (or, prod/dev at the same company, or personal/work, or whatever).

I don't want anything CLIENTA does on a subverted bastion host or other host to be able to affect CLIENTB in any way.

I also keep some keys totally offline (to manage logging servers, which are normally read-only); ideally with some better way to do 2 party control as well.
But you agree that people were trying to see the movie 'Hurt Locker' or treasure it? And obviously there was no official way of acquiring the content - a place which works nicely and is priced correctly.

We've seen this, argued over and over again for past fifteen years. Justifying stealing is different from putting middlemen to their place. Teaching consumers manners, penalizing them is not the right way.

One can understand this, or wait to understand this the hard way.

they 'could' indeed. But the article fails to mention anything at all on the technical side of things.. And they are the reason I don't see this appearing on laptops or desktops any time soon.

Pretty much all current eye trackers use the same basic principle. They illuminate the eye using infrared LEDs, which makes the pupil appear very bright when recorded with a camera of decent quality. The recorded stream, at least 500 frames per second if you want to be able to track microsaccades, is processed yielding X/Y coordinates. Only the fact you need that framerate and a decent focussed image makes it not easy to implement. To give you an idea, the trackers I have used are all made of cameras that do not fit in a latptop, or in some cases are even bigger than a laptop, and then either a dedicated real-time PC to run the processing or a set of PCI cards with some DSPs on it. Not exactly the kind of stuff you can simply add to an existing laptop or desktop. Furthermore all this only works properly after some calibration, adjusting settings based on background lighting etc and when the eye being tracked does not move too much in 3D space. In other words getting two tracks that are alike not only depends on how a person looks at things.
When I evaluated .Net for my database client I saw a nonportable Java. When I was working on a structural mechanics code I had performance considerations that were not met. The former niche of .Net was that it could painlessness interface with Microsoft technologies, without MS's love, support and their technology why would anybody use .Net?

All services that an artist can use to distribute music yet musicians still choose to sign with labels to this day. Maybe, just maybe labels provide value to artists beyond what you can comprehend?

Would Justin Bieber be worth over $100,000,000 if he had released his music on Bandcamp? Would Lady Gaga be worth $150,000,000 if she had released her music on Myspace? Do you think Lady Gaga and Justin Bieber want people to pirate their music and care only about people hearing their music? If that was the case why don't they release it for free?

Radiohead released an album independently in... 2005? That was a success, if artists only cared about making music and didn't care about making money why hasn't every artist since released independently?

Why can't people that create content be a business? Surely that is the entrepreneurial spirit everyone here is supposed to have... and if so, why can't they be against people that engage in media piracy?
"There’s also this perception that with Windows 8, the Windows team is trying its best to relegate .NET into the dustbin of legacy platforms"

I haven't heard that anywhere. They are tightening the APIs for security and there is the usual rebranding (Silverlight apparently is out) together with the addition of 'our new things are brilliant, unlike the things that we, lasy year, called our new brilliant things', but AFAIK, Microsoft bet and is still betting heavily on .NET.

Anybody know what this statement is based on?
Point taken. It's good to see the options coming. Yes, Justin Bieber, Lady Gaga are creations using the current technology.

Not by suppressing freedom to download, or by penalizing consumers who download, or by asking them to behave properly. I never said artists should release their music for free. You did not read properly.
What the fuck is this bullshit of "Show HN" and then not hanging around in the comments to answer questions and accept feedback. This project has tons of garbage submitted to it and no one from the project is moderating it or responding to the feedback here.

"Show HN" should be reserved for founders/creators and if you're not going to take time to be here for conversation, HN should not give time to your project.

You're not even taking the time to moderate the actual website.

I flagged this crap and will flag other Show HN posts that are essentially spam.

the problem is that ruby lets you redefine + anywhere you like, and return values of any type. so you need the most general translation of that expression into a series of method dispatches.
You were so desperate to make that point that you equated "interest" with "irrational fear".
That's not the experience of the majority of the artists, only a select few. For all practical purposes, if you aren't buying direct from the artist, you aren't supporting them.
Oh, I agree that people were trying to see the movie hurt locker in much the same way that I try to see (and treasure, trust me!) Game of Thrones off the torrents.

I don't have any rationale other than the fact that I don't want to pay the $876 that HBO + Cable will cost me. I also like to have it with me while travelling, and the streaming solutions from HBO, good as they are, just aren't great on an airplane / hotel in some other country.

I'm not "putting middlemen" in their place - I just want cool content in the format that is convenient for me for what I consider to be a reasonable cost to me. I do make it a absolute habit of purchasing the DVDs when they come out, to try and make my conscience a little lighter.

But, I _never_ kid myself that the artists behind GoT wanted to "connect with me directly." They wanted to get paid the same as I do at my job.
> I never said artists should release their music for free. You did not read properly.

Please can you explain what your point is then, I don't quite understand what you're saying if that is the case.

> You can always achieve a token timeout by embedding a timestamp and signing the blob.

What's the benefit of this over just sending a random string? One database read for the risk of an attacker being able to create arbitrary valid password reset tokens that never expire?

That particular trade-off strikes me as fantastically bad, especially for an operation like password reset that doesn't happen very often.

> However, because you're typically doing a password reset in a centralized database anyway, there's not really much point.

Personally I find the incurred security risk more compelling than "we're hitting the database anyway, so who cares if we make another trip for the timeout."

I pirate most television shows I can get my grubby little paws on.

But whenever an artist whose works I enjoy tries to connect with me directly, I buy stuff. For instance, I have bought most of Amanda Palmer's albums in her various bands. Especially now that she isn't using a label anymore, but even before that she was putting a lot of work into connecting with fans directly.

I also bought Louis CK's standup show thingy. And I've bought certain indie games that were enjoyable. All because the creators connected with me directly-ish.

But more importantly, they made buying from them reasonable. Never any DRM, downloadable content immediately after purchase (the CD is just for show and dust collecting), ability to buy on every content in every country at the same time and so on.

Conversely, I didn't buy my latest MacOS upgrade even though it was just $25. Why? Because I would have to wait three weeks for it to be available (online) in my country. Fuck that.

I'm going to call you out on that and say that it is ridiculous to suggest that the scientific community is working on certain kinds of explanations in order to dismiss others.

I too am from London, have known Airbnb for a year or so but never heard of HouseTrip before.

I found it interesting the article focused on his attention to detail and large houses as their differentiator as I think OneFineStay is doing that far more successfully than HouseTrip when I look at their listings.

I have one question, (probably a noob question so forgive me) they mention funding from Index Ventures. I'm sure this happens quite a lot but Index has funded HouseTrip and OneFineStay both for series A and B and now HouseTrip in series C. Would they not find issues or difficulties with funding such directly competing companies?

8 hours after you post and this is your first response. Not only that but the site isnt being moderated and you have tons of garbage posted. You're not respecting the HN community by dumping your Show HN post and then disappearing.

You're getting the time and attention from hundreds, if not thousands, of people. Don't just dump your Show HN post and disappear.

Edit: my use of the word "crap" and crud reaction was in reference to how you dumped your project and left without following up. It's not related to the actual website which I didn't really spend time on since it was full of curses and other nonsense and you were MIA in the comments.

Edit 2: you're getting the brunt of my frustration but it's part of a larger problem that I'm noticing with Show HN. Others have posted their Show HN and then have gone MIA, you just happened to do it when I had time to express my frustration.

It's good to see that you're monitoring this thread and are still working on the site but please make this thread and the comments here a priority while it's still on the front page.

3 Tips To Help You Manage Your Social Media Presence
> There is no number 2 in tech.

Depends entirely on the market, although it's often more likely in tech because of the global reach of companies, positive network externalities, and other factors like that, that make it a very different sector, than, say "small Italian restaurants".
TBH if artists care about money over music, I'm less likely to like their stuff anyway. There isn't a huge amount of music that costs silly money to produce nowadays, is there?

Though there are exceptions - bands like Muse, that need lots of up-front investment to create a huuge amazing stadium show (the costs will probably be recouped from tickets, though).
First, it's very portable.
Second, performance is as good or better than pretty much anything else that is not optimized C or C++.
Finally, there are many reasons to love C# beyond interfacing with MS technology. It's a very beautiful language, much nicer than Java used to be and in many respects better than even the latest Java language. And innovation continues: If you've worked with node.js for some time, you will see how ugly code becomes where everything is done using callbacks. C# just now introduced new syntax where you can basically write code in a linear way and the nesting of callbacks is done by the compiler.
That's pretty cool!

Agreed.

And this does nothing about those who use usenet or rapidshare.
Google Translate probably failed because he used a negative question (without a question mark). "Wouldn't I vote for whatever you share, Burak, my teacher" is the literal translation.

I have no idea why "yahu" is translated as fuck though. It means something like "oh my Lord" in Arabic, Turks often use it as a filler.
I don't pirate, but I still don't like the idea of the content of my traffic being constantly analyzed, getting harassed with false positive notices due to software bugs, or due to legitimate sites accidentally having copy written material, or not honoring fair use correctly, or legitimate downloading of a game from a small studio with little bandwidth using BitTorrent, paying $35 review fees and talking to Comcast customer service any more than I absolutely have to.

I feel like I'm living in the movie Idiocracy... http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/idiocracy/trailers/
Well this is the hard problem. To make it convenient and sensible for people to buy/watch movies officially, make it possible to show it off to their friends (Like I have a paid subscription), may be adopt SAAS or provide rented streaming in such a way that people say "we have an official access to hurt locker" or something.

If it costs $10 a ticket to watch on a big screen, spend gasoline, travel some distance physically, it can surely cost 1/10th (or less) of that amount per movie and yet return similar profits (by volumes) to the artist. People really don't care about the middlemen.

Just a few ideas, but obviously the solution is hard. Yet I believe that teaching manners to people, i.e. annoying the consumers is suicidal.
I don't really care whether you think it is okay or not.

I just care that I can get the stuff on my terms. Not for free, but I don't want to have to see it at a specific time or pay for a bunch of channels I don't want.
