People not responding in time doesn't have to do with how they read their mail but only with how they prioritize their life. You consider mail important ,they probably not as much.
I follow the same "full inbox" approach and answer quite fast to mails, in part because i do have email notifications everwhere. I do answer mails with a certain importance at once and keep others on unread or starred.

I know people that archive all mails and do respond slow in general and people that respond fast.

I am so happy to see the positive comments here about PhD program. I will start mine for quantitative psychology this Sept. I will be getting a master and then a PhD. At least, that is the plan! WISH ME LUCK!!!!!
Robots will be cheaper eventually. And very easily reprogrammed.

For me the goal is not cheap food but quality food.

And the most expensive part of going out for many people? Driving there, if you consider the cost of their time.

Ultimately, we will get robotic vehicles to do that part too. We will see some very small vehicles once robotic vehicles are commonplace, perhaps delivering only a single meal.

And we'll also see robotic cooks that can cook anything, so they may become so common you won't need to drive to them.
So your real argument is, I take it, the the probability of cryonics working is 0? This is different than what I understood before.

In that case, do you have any reason to think it's 0? My main evidence to the contrary is:

1. A smart group of people say that the probability is > 0: (Eliezer Yudkowsky, Robin Hanson, various others at LessWrong). They have nothing to gain from selling me on it, so I don't think they're biased.

2. It seems to me that future medical advances are pretty likely (based on history), including advances leading to being able to fix practically anything that kills people today. And it seems pretty sensible that cryonic preservation basically stops all processes at the moment of death. Combine the two, and it makes sense to me it might be possible to revive people.

I'm not saying the probability is > 50%, I'm saying it can be < 1%, but still over 0, and still be worth it.

There is no need to insult everyone's intelligence by asserting that anyone that thinks cryonics has a non-zero chance of success has been fooled by "snake oil".

It so happens that quite a few rather smart people believe that cryonics has a non-zero chance of success, so if you have some conclusive evidence to the contrary, let's hear it. Otherwise, your uninformed opinion is just that.
Quanics is correct. I would never recommend paying your own way at a graduate program--go where you are funded. A graduate stipend will net to about $20k/year (there are some amazing fellowships that will fund $50k+ but they are very, very competitive). In a "real job" you'll often be making much more than $20k, as I was when I was a higher ed IT professional (and could have qualified for free tuition as an institutional employee). PhD programs are rated by several factors including graduation rate and time to completion. It is obvious to me now that the people who are choosing the students to fill the very limited number of graduate student seats in any given year will choose those who are committing to work full time on graduating.

Many people do complain about academia being hostile to family life (see http://100rsns.blogspot.com/2010/09/15-marriage-and-family-u... for a particularly negative view). However, many of my colleagues had children during graduate school. They took time off classes but then used their "down time" (e.g. child napping) to focus on writing and came out ahead. I got married immediately before entering grad school and had my first child as I was writing my dissertation. The timing worked really well for me. I was lucky that my wife could support me through graduate school (on top of my stipend).

Pretty much every crypto library you use was badly broken, multiple times, during its long history. New attacks are still being found, and browsers and libraries are updated as we learn more.

For a small sample, read the wikipedia page for http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_Sockets_Layer and take a look at how many times we all got that wrong.

The first rule of crypto is not to write crypto code. Reuse a high level library that already made all the mistakes you're about to. If you absolutely have to break the first rule, you need to budget between 5 and 6 digits for experts to review it against known attacks and best practices.

All McDonald's are run by franchisers. New locations have to put up a quarter of the startup price and pay back the rest as a loan http://www.bizquest.com/McDonalds-Restaurants-franchise-for-...

Even if it costs less in the long run, increasing their startup costs might decrease growth enough to make it now worth it. And since they demand uniformity everywhere, they'd be in the position of imposing change on their existing franchisers who might not want it, which is never fun.
It's also worth noting that maintenance people normally get more (significantly so for the more complex machines) then normal crew, and given how frequently the machines break already you start seeing the costs of a robot being more then the cost of paying someone to do the work.

Further the machines get cleaned constantly, and are deep cleaned every night. That takes people, and given how low the crew numbers are normally, you're not going to save anything by having robots make the food.
Finally, here's his true color. "Don't do this or I will sue you" is the most unimaginative, terrible, desperate statement one could make to enforce their unfair superiority over others, especially given the fact that this person was known to be a lot more creative and intelligent otherwise.

In the initial days of various parks there are stories of a jar or two of uncracked pepper being sent to the head of the family that granted the land, this was somewhat in light hearted humour and also more or less took care of the rent for a few hundred years into the future.

These days there may well be the odd case in which a centenary celebration for a park might well invite a descendent of the family that bestowed a park and "formally" give them a peppergrinder, I can't think of many off hand.

At some point it may be the case that (say) Hyde Park in Perth, Western Australia becomes delinquent in rent and the descendants of the <redacted> family step up and form a class action demanding the return of the Park to themselves by the City of Vincent (or whomever holds the deed at that point).

The City could settle by simply throwing them a sack of peppercorns to squabble over amongst themselves.

The spirit of the lease is a "forever rental" for a sum of something trivial of actual value ( tea, spice, pepper, etc. once were more valuable in English society ) to make it binding but trivial to pay.

The more interesting case would be if a council did something with the land or a portion of the land that was deemed outside the terms of usage ( a private residence for the mayor rather than a groundskeeper's flat, perhaps ) - if public access wasn't restored then there would be a case to claim back half a billion dollars worth of real estate.

That would be the makings of an epic legal shitstorm and drama.

Simple question: the flaws that are being pointed out are not fundamental flaws, but rather poor choice of a way to accomplish the goal; therefore, I ask, is there anything in the idea itself that is flawed?

TBMS, if the scheme were as follows: user downloads index.html over 4098-bit SSL (assuming that you trust the CA). index.html contains SHA2 hashes of all the remaining resources to be downloaded and compares the hashes of downloaded resources from completely untrusted servers to the ones that it already has and thusly decides to continue if the hashes are correct. Is there anything fundamentally flawed with this system or is javascript cryptography = bad just an overgeneralization?
They have an API where you can write your own client, if you don't want to use the JS client. This doesn't solve every security problem, but at least this one.

I think that they have really tried to make it secure, but they aren't just competent enough. Browser-crypto is always somewhat insecure especially when they actually store your keys and you have to trust them.

The way I see it, depression, like poverty, can be a disease, a choice, and a tragedy of circumstance all at the same time and frankly I'm surprised to see people vehemently arguing what I consider to be the same side.
I agree with others that have replied. If you change your stance to, "I have X skills, and I can use them to provide your business with X, which is good for you because X," then you are much more likely to attract interest. It seems that the best way to attract attention is to show off your best work. Don't be too worried with the HN community. Worst case scenario, you'll get a bunch of useful constructive criticism.
In my opinion, we have only been able to have a somewhat equivalent (to desktop) mobile browsing experience in the past few years. Combine that with the dramatic reduce in the cost of mobile data plans due to competition. In addition, the technology is just now becoming cheap enough for less then middle class people to afford it.

I have no doubt that the explosion in ownership of internet browsing devices, as well as the ease of use, will continue at an exponential rate. With continued growth, eventually someone is going to figure out how to monetize it past 99 cent downloads.

You don't know Glenn. He's a natural story teller and while proud of what he's done, he recognizes that he's just one of many people trying to create something that hasn't been created before. In reading into his comments of his history with Steve, you're viewing him as intentionally pumping up his own story. The truth is he's trying very hard to be honest with the listener as to his comings and goings with Apple and with Steve.

He worked with him closely, then stepped away and came back. Multiple times. By telling the story of this, he lets readers know that he wasn't always by his side and that he left to try other things but circled back at different junctures in his life and in Steve's.

Knowing Glenn and his successes and failures and talking with him over many a margarita at Compadres (after long bouts of writing NeXTSTEP code with him), the story brought strong memories and a very clear voice of different periods and circumstances across several years. He shows an arc of ups and downs in both careers and a lot of hard work and sweat that often didn't get notice until many years later if at all.

Rereading the story, I don't get boastful at all. I get much appreciation for being able to be on a pretty cool ride and being able to create some great products. There's also disappointment in some hard work that didn't pay off. But above all appreciation for someone who continually rolled up his sleeves to get in the ring, take chances, and build something... or in this case tell a damn good story.
I'm not sure I'd characterize suicide as an easy way out.
I would say that in most cases early stage startups should not give away equity but should stick with donation/preorder crowdfunding. I see crowdfunding as a tool for startup that can be used to validate their MVP.

These kinds of posts make me happy and sad at the same time. Happy because I agree with every word with every fiber in my body. Sad because literally 100% of the industry as far as I can tell is exactly as how she explains in the article. I can't even remember how many phone interviews I've done over the past 8 months... Despite the fact that I have over 50,000 lines of code on my github account and 5 years experience, I'm told I'm "not what we're looking for".

my father worked full time while receiving his phd in the professional field he was employed in. he has had a very successful academic career. his dissertation was no joke and he has advanced much further than others from more prestigious universities.

i don't understand this mindset and the fact it exists is why i would never go back for a phd (pure math phd drop out). this is why so much research ends up being inapplicable garbage that doesn't advance a profession so much as hit the current vogue in academics. half the shit i saw pushed the current boundaries of human knowledge further away from anything applicable, interesting, or worth spending 6 years of your life on.

McDonald's is most assuredly continually doing R&D on their processes. Undoubtedly they have investigated robotics over the years and the most likely explanation for why they have not been widely adopted is the ROI is not there.

Restaurant profit margins are not high, there is way too much competition. Until recently, and probably even now, the robotic technology needed to automate the kitchen would have been prohibitively expensive and likely unreliable. Restaurant kitchens are hot, greasy, steamy environments. Also anything that's used for food production has to be able to be regularly cleaned by immersion or high pressure hot water or chemical cleaning. Not great for electronics and precision mechanisms unless they are built to rugged specifications (not inexpensive). Even ordinary, manually operated restaurant equipment is very expensive compared to what we buy to use at home, and the reason is that reliability must be very high; you cannot afford to lose your production capability for even a short time, since restaurants are the ultimate just-in-time production operation.

Finally, unlike more traditional factory operations (e.g. automobile manufacturing) where robots replaced highly paid unionized workers, the average McDonald's worker probably makes less than $10/hr with minimal benefits. At maximum staffing, labor costs for the kitchen staff might be $50/hr, and at most times of the day, less than that. There's just not a huge savings to be had.
The other side of the coin are comments like this. "Finally, a new narrative!" This is just as lame as those that canonize him outside of his direct accomplishments. Steve Jobs had two MAJOR successes (Pixar and Apple). He was highly competitive and did aggressively oppressive things and had moments of integrity. I just wish everyone would stop trying to color his biography like they had to write a movie synopsis of his life in a a sentence.

Id argue that is the real lesson here. Be OK with being inconsistent relative to circumstance, if you believe that all great men held firm to their "codes" then you will fail in your emulation of greatness.

TL;DR Life's messy, people can't be summed up in a characteristic , Steve Jobs was a dick and a hero.

One of the bugs is fairly old, the other (which is required for the overal exploit) is new-ish (introduced in Java 7), but probably not as new as saosebastiao was implying (as the title of this HN post can be parsed as "the bugs were introduced by the patch attempting to fix the other bugs", which is definitely not the case, AFAICT).

The irony in this article is pretty thick. In his original article, Jeff not so subtly admitted that he considered suicide and therefore likely battled depression as well. Yet Reed says Jeff has "a reckless lack of knowledge about how depression really works". Why does Reed label Jeff as ignorant in both his knowledge of depression and Aaron's situation when Reed himself doesn't know Jeff's?

Jeff was simply drawing an analogy to suicide that most of his readers would understand. A small percentage of us have experienced depression while almost all of us have played games. Yes, the annoyance of being quick scoped in Call of Duty can't be compared to the pain of depression, but it doesn't have to be for the analogy to still be helpful. Honestly, I don't think it benefits anyone to be offended by imperfect analogies.

Yes, Firefox OS plays mp3 (and h264 videos), using the hardware decoder from the device.
That's how you want to honor Aaron? By using PACER and an army of volunteers to pursue someone's personal vendetta? I can't even begin to describe how tasteless that is; to take one of Aaron's projects and turn it into some kind of misguided inquisition, then call it a "poetic tribute to Aaron Swartz's memory".

I don't know who you are, but I'm pretty sure Aaron Greenspan was a personal friend of Aaron Swartz, who hosted a lot of people who came from out of town to Aaron's memorial service.

I don't think making public officials' public records public in order to make them accountable to the public is "tasteless" or a "witch hunt" or a "vendetta"; it's the kind of transparency that is basic to a democracy. Aaron Swartz spent hundreds, if not thousands, of hours doing just that.
I'm not saying people shouldn't have X view, I'm saying today that they should know that posting, liking on facebook, etc. are equivalents of shouting it from the rooftop.

So I speak out against the herd, and in your words "shill" for Apple and my "punishment' is a downvote? This is what Arment is alluding too.

You are hardly by-partisan yourself, everything that you post is either pro-Google or Anti-Apple. What is your point?
McDonalds is seemingly trying to create an image of a wholesome restaurant, serving naturally made and original food. McDonalds in Canada has a series of videos showing how their meat is natural, and their fries are 100% potatoes etc. I feel that mechanizing their burger making process would be counter productive to this image.
The problem I have with this analysis is that there's an implied justification for being a dick as long as you're successful in the end. Too many people have taken this as the lesson of Steve Jobs.
