Yes, actually.

Instead of a dumb rack -- four posts and screw holes in the right places -- you get a blade chassis 72U high. Centralized but redundant power supplies with integrated monitoring and per-feed software control. A built-in KVM. Large slow(er) fans that push more air more efficiently and more quietly, or perhaps a liquid cooling system that provides a clean, standardized disconnect for each component. Assignable resources -- instead of running virtual machines, you run re-configurable real machines, where you start by selecting a number of processors with associated RAM and add in storage.

On the one hand, this will have less in common with consumer hardware, so economies of scale will not be shared. On the other hand, server hardware is already substantially different from high-end consumer hardware, so it's probably not that big a deal.
Honestly it doesn't require the help of China or any other country to build such a simple malware. It's not because the country has limited internet access that they are completely clueless. If it's intended, organized by the DPRK government I assume they must have a team of "cyber specialists". I personally doubt that needed china's help for such a simple malware.

Kind of like when Mark Zuckerberg made Facemash to rank female undergrads, and then never succeeded at anything after that?
You can certainly feel the way you want to, but sticks and stones. Jokes make light of plenty of despicable things. That's the point of a joke: to make light of something.

A joke is a joke. Specifically naming someone is not a joke. It is personal and implies a thinly veiled threat. It's not apples to apples at all unless you are the personification of the concept of prison rape.
I've seen this effect in other "heated" discussions, and I wonder if it's the effect of moderation. Primarily, what happens to a thread as the percentage of moderated messages increases? Is that metric involved in the positioning? I could see a topic like sexism (or emacs v. vi) getting an inordinate amount of moderation, and thus might be flagged more often, moving it down the list. Maybe that has nothing to do with it, but I've seen this effect before.
You may want to look into whether you have sleep apnea, by doing a sleep study.
This is actually a fairly feasible solution. It isn't that much different than a typical industrial robotic arm.

You should turn your theoretical project into a company. People will pay a lot of money for innovation and convenience.

Sorry, I have never been to prison so I don't really know. The statistics I read boggles my mind.

What can we do to help deter prisoner abuse?
Honestly? It's a for-profit company, whose interests did you think was serving?
i don't think it discourages exchange. After all this bitcoin hoopla i saw bitcoinstore which has significant discounts on items over amazon. The next time I have to buy something, I may use them, but I will not keep any money in bitcoins. If there is a P2P economy that processes payments for 1% of a transaction, that could be a very useful thing assuming I trust the merchant.

Yes, let's go back to the glory days of the deflationary late-19th century.

The reason the Keynesians like currency that slowly decreases in value is because it brought about the longest sustained period of economic growth in human history, without which we would not even have Bitcoin to celebrate right now (the widely adopted technology that makes it possible to implement being a result of aforementioned growth.)

If everyone hoards, and never spends, then the economy stalls and then recedes. What's good for us as individuals is terrible for us as a whole.

That said, I think BitCoin is very interesting, and if some sort of shorting is introduced to cause a downward pressure on prices then the price could very well stabilize. A stable, slightly deflationary currency is just about as good as a stable, slightly inflationary currency.
Nope, a couple of unpopular blog posts is not something I wanted to see. I could have googled those myself. I was expecting a 'rage' unleashed - with just one question - 'How dare they do this!?' "How dare they do this to Gender 'x'" The same rage you saw previously when this happened to women.
Section 11.8 of Apple Store Review Guidelines

Well then, Elsevier may have won. 70 mil to destroy a viable threat to its monopoly may be a small price to pay in the grand scheme of things.
This could work if you had a lot of clothes and didn't wear anything too often. Dry cleaning clothes too frequently will ruin them.

Why is it any more difficult to build a machine that works on a 120V 15A circuit? I never studied circuits, so consider me a layman.
It seems you must login with Facebook, which I assume allows for picking of very specific people.

I would expect it to be a lot of negatives, because people usually don't (seem to) gossip as much about positives.
I wanted to link to this, but couldn't remember the name. It's pretty cool!
I'm the one doing it wrong? The parent mentioned that discrimination is OK because of "historical analogies" drawn from past centuries. I merely extended it to another domain for sarcasm's sake.

Second, you DO know that "Godwin's law" is not an actual law that govern's discussions, and it's not even something that people agree on its validity, right? It's merely a BS internet meme, a funny quote used as a joke. Invoking it is like invoking made up statistics as an argument.
That was not my point at all. My point was that patio11 is, shamefully, engaged in well-poisoning by bringing up the distant origins of MtGox, which have zero relevance to any consideration of MtGox's current professionalism, security, regulatory compliance, risks to users etc. (A point that you would think would be obvious to anyone on Hacker News, who is aware of how companies 'pivot' all the time.) It has changed too much, isn't even owned or run by the same people, and has a long enough and spotty enough track record to judge on its own.

I illustrate the irrelevance and fallacy by applying the same well-poisoning to a pleasingly symmetrical example: another Japanese company which was also set up to deal with playing cards - Nintendo. No one would dream of judging Nintendo by its playing cards origin, because that was a long time ago, different people are involved now, and it has ample room to judge it since. Just like MtGox.
He is mischaracterizing Paul Graham's argument. The argument pg makes is that if all other things are held equal, your chances of success are higher in Silicon Valley than they are in other cities, which is not the same thing as saying that Silicon Valley is the only place you can do a startup.

Wait, Hacker News is OK talking about gender now? Because I thought that stuff got flagged because it wasn't "relevant"- evidently the community has had quite the change of heart recently.

Either that, or it's OK because it's about men and not women. One of the two.
That wouldn't actually increase security. It might help when you have a armload of groceries, but to innovate successfully would require something that makes the home owner more secure for unintended access.
You can "get by" with a variety behaviors that have negative health impacts.

In the case of sleep, attentiveness isn't the only measure. Sleep deprivation weakens your immune system, lowers testosterone production, and so on.

I don't see how being a "functional insomniac" is any more admirable than being a functional alcoholic?
>there's plenty of highly educated women who are sufficiently steeped in feminism (due to the process of acquiring that higher education) to see this as perfectly fair payback for patriarchy's many evils, and to use it without regret.

Your implicit attack on morals derived from feminism reveals a failure to understand feminism and its ideals and effects. Furthermore, demonizing "plenty of highly educated women" as eye-for-an-eye combatants seeking revenge for patriarchy isn't just silly, it's offensive.
It seems that the author thinks Bitcoin is going to steadily appreciate indefinitely, which is obviously not the case. Give a kid a BC at $140 and you'll have a furious kid when it crashes to $15.

Somewhat off-topic: isn't BC just digital gold? Is there any reason to think of it any differently?

Is there any research (or even opinion pieces) on the difference between spreading sleep evenly over days or catching-up at certain times?

I normally aim for a couple of nights a week of full sleep (no alarm clock), and the past week and a half I pushed this - 3-4 hours a night for 9 nights (with an exception of 7 hours once in the middle), which left me needing two really long nights the last couple of days.

But is it any better or worse this way? For example the difference between 6 hours a night over the whole week (42 hours total) or 4 hours a night for five days then 11 hours a night for the other two?
Nest (http://www.nest.com/) is already working on a thermostat that solves this problem. I can't imagine it would be hard to adapt it for hot tubs as well. On an unrelated note, I really want a hot tub.
There was. It was called Facemash and is now Facebook.
Bitcoin seems to be teaching people exactly what they wanted to believe in the first place, what a coincidence!
While true, it seemed like a fairly pro-openness company, which not only said the right things but seemed to have a lot of employees genuinely committed to improving the state of academic literature.

But it does add another example of why we should be wary of even well-meaning for-profit companies, without some kind of more solid guarantee that they won't sell out in the future. For stuff like this, either a nonprofit foundation, or at least a forkable open-source version of the platform, seem like necessary prerequisites if you want to ensure that Elsevier-and-co can't buy it out. I guess a company 100%-owned by a strong open-culture advocate could be reliable also, but it gets more complex when investors are in the mix.

Also a reason I don't trust academia.edu compared to, say, the arXiv.
Ryan, treehouse is an awesome way to learn technical subjects. It looks like you guys put a tremendous amount of effort into making the quality just superb. I'm curious if your pricing going forward will change with your focus on younger students. I have a little one at home who is really jazzed about the iOS classes, and the price is totally doable but causes a bit of a wince.

Secondly, I have really been wanting to setup a "Computer Club" for young kids in my town, but I don't have an educators training. Just wanted to say that this seems like a perfect fit for filling in the gaps of my knowledge by using your content and get this group up and running.
Interesting idea. I wonder if it is too dystopic though; falls too much into the realm of trying to pinpoint thoughtcrimes.
I don't really know how to respond to this one, but I definitely got a good laugh out of it. Let us know if you discover anything!
Bitcoin has already taught us that even smart people are not immune to drinking the Kool-Aid. The tech community is quickly separating into two camps that are becoming unintelligible to each other. For some, this article is an amazing piece full of profound insights that justify their decision to buy Bitcoins. For others, it piles weak arguments on top of an assumption that the recent rise in Bitcoin value will continue forever.
How much does your idea cost?
In the US, it is virtually impossible to find a circuit of 10 mbits up and 10 mbits down for a residence. This was the original goal stated by the Clinton initiatives but this was never reached.

Contrast that with Datacenters where 10gigabit links are common. Sure Europe has 100gigabit core networks, but the US, in terms of aggregate capacity, dwarfs Europe.

But the point is about the difference between our residential and our commercial networks, which are completely separate from a regulatory perspective. We treat residential bandwidth like its cannon fodder for telcos, which is decidedly not first-world.

You make great points but I still think mine are valid.
And the same Samsung with the camera driver that was /dev/mem with 0777.
Bitcoin, just a scam?
Again, this would mean a hyper-intelligent home far beyond the realm of current artificial intelligence capabilities. At the very least, we would require a machine that could pass the Turing test and, from there, we would have to make it understand emotion.

The day of the butler and maid will soon be past, and the home itself will be your steward.
> you'd need a fast SSD to saturate 1GbE

Or pretty much any decently spec'ed new RAID array. Most of our "recent" arrays are in the 300MB/sec to 500MB/sec range and were not particularly expensive.

But you're probably right - while it'd be nice to be able to hang those arrays off iSCSI or export network filesystems that can reach those kind of speeds, it's rare-ish to need it. Saturating GbE in a way that doesn't make it just as easy to "just" bond a couple of interfaces together or spread your IO load over a couple extra servers is a pretty special case still.

I'd love to be able to justify 10GbE in our network, but I can't until it costs almost as little as GbE.

> and nothing remotely consumer-level can saturate 10GbE yet.

Not much consumer level even saturates Fast Ethernet. Especially given how much consumer equipment today still hangs off 54Mbps or below wifi... I don't think that's really an argument - most 1GbE equipment likely still goes to corporate networks.
George Soros: How to save the EU from the euro crisis
As Optimizely's CEO is an ex-Googler and Google's current A/B testing tool is crap, I'm just waiting for when Google buys Optimizely. Right now, Optimizely is growing so fast that they haven't reached a place where they'd maximize their price, but I think an acquisition inevitable once their growth plateaus.
I was living on 4-6 hrs sleep a day for many years, and felt fine, until finally a couple of years ago, it caught up to me. I literally couldn't think straight, I had terrible headaches, I couldn't learn anything new. At one point, I couldn't remember what I did that afternoon, my mind was a blank. The straw that broke the camel's back was when I couldn't remember which toothbrush was mine. I went to the doctor, and she suspected I had a brain tumor, but thankfully the MRI was negative.

I decided maybe I should sleep more, and in the middle of the work day, I left at 2pm, and went home and slept 17 hrs straight. Now, I can't stay up later than 1030pm, and if I get less than 7 hrs sleep I feel horrible.
Q: Will it have the same issues for offline-playing as the PC version or can you just play it when you want to?
If you did imagine that, you have an awesome imagination! If not, please send some articles on the topic my way. I'd love to read more about it.
I'm very convinced of Paul Graham's take on this, in that there are positive network effects to locating near people and organizations like yours.

That being said, I agree with the author...but only because I'm starting to think that the toxicity level of SV culture is starting to outweigh its positive network benefits of talent. SV startups are completely overrun by a TechCrunch mentality of hype-machine backed, poorly conceived products...and if you aren't funded you are dead. Some startups may thrive in that culture, but far from all will.

I would argue that you should locate where you get the benefit of colocation of focused talent, rather than colocation of focused intent. In other words, if you are a cruise vacation startup, you need to be in Miami, not Cupertino. And if you are a media startup, you need to be in Los Angeles or New York, not Mountain View.
This wouldn't work well for all apps. For example, I went on a trip to the Rockies in November and wanted to check the elevation at the lodge I was staying at. I downloaded and ran elevation app to find out. Took only moments to find out and even with fiddling around the the app while hiking I probably spent no more than 5 minutes on it but it was completely useful for the purpose I had downloaded and used it for. Should limited use/one-time use apps not be counted simply because they weren't used for an arbitrary amount of time?

It's fairly common to do this. When someone says 'X is harder unless Y' and people accept it, then soon everyone doing X must do Y as well. When the pendulum swings far enough towards Y, people start doing Not-Y and succeed, pulling the pendulum back.

Basically, Paul Graham's argument about being in a startup hub was so clear cut a few years ago that everyone doing a startup moved to SV. Now with SV overcrowded with startups all trying to get the same investments and publicity, it might actually be easier to start a startup outside of the hub where there is far less competition for finance and talent.
Yeah Rust is a really clever name imo
I didn't realize there were names for the characters.

I think the issue is men can't use the app.
So he has one data point, therefore generalizes for everyone. That takes away credibility from the article. Sure, you don't need to be in Silicon Valley. All you need is luck :)

I've seen many startups benefit greatly from moving to Silicon Valley (including my own). Sure, you don't need to be in Silicon Valley. However, it does help tremendously for many types of companies.
The comments here are absolutely disgusting. Sure, this service is shallow, and absolutely disrespectful of privacy, etc...

But the amount of faux outrage you're all whipping yourselves into a froth over is really over the top. So much hate and resentment. :(

Oh, and those of you claiming there would be some sort of anti-man frenzy if there was a site targeting similar gossip by men?

It's been done. No outrage. The most prominent example? Facebook.
Is there any research on correlation of dementia with lack of sleep? Would be an interesting angle.
A deflationary spiral is not a price increase, large or small. It is supposed to be when price increases, large or small, shrinks actual economic activity, causing more price increases, more shrinkage, etc.

Has this actually happened? This shouldn't be a hard question to answer if the Bitcoin economy is indeed "currently undergoing" a deflationary spiral.
Anyone who's been through military boot camp will tell you that you can "get by" on 4 hours of sleep. But there is a reason that Drill Instructors exert baby-sitter like control over their recruits.
Aside from just what a solid company Optimizely is, I think that if you read Dan's blogpost you get a hint at the ultimate direction they may be going.

"We firmly believe that 10 years from now people will look back at today and be shocked at how generic, impersonal, and one-to-many what we call the web is... We are striving to become the layer on top of the web that powers that experience."

I'd guess that Optimizely may be becoming less about page optimisation and more about experience optimisation. Should my navigation and experience at Tesco be the same as that of a mother of four or a student? My recommendations may be personalised but what if the entire experience at the site including the advertising, design and calls-to action could be personalised and optimised for key customer segments.

If you've ever used Test and Target you'll know that it can get pretty complicated but equally that that that sort of segmentation can equally have a huge impact. If Optimizely can pull off a way to easily curate site experiences for different visitor segments and perhaps intertwine those experiences with social then they could have some huge topline impact in those companies.
Agreed, a company's limited startup capital goes a lot further in other places. Office rent, housing, hell even Internet access and electricity are cheaper outside of the usual places startups locate. But then you have a reverse problem of not necessarily having enough talent in the area. However, if you're open to remote workers (which everyone should be) then that is much less of an issue.
What kind of "extreme feminists" are you talking about, and why would you be glad to "see the rage"? It sounds like you'd like to verify your opinion on feminism by considering the arguments of a fringe minority.

Men created and promoted this app, and curious people it is targeted to are going to try it. What is your point?
Above you are essentially saying every application has SQL injection vulnerabilities and any good security guy will find them. This is a very specific and dubious conclusion to draw from the more general principle that there will be some vulnerability, somewhere. SQL injection specifically is quite easy to avoid. With some frameworks it would actually be rather laborious to introduce an SQL injection vulnerability. This is what Alexander is alluding to. This does not imply that applications are easily secured, just that this attack vector isn't what it used to be.
A scan of the comments, all reasonable commentary, tells me that you're likely a troll.
Try being a woman on the Internet — anywhere on the Internet, not this one idiot site — and then talk about insane double-standards.

When every other online interaction involves at least a few men commenting on your fuckability or how much of a 'bitch' you are, or going digging through all of your previous posts or even tracking down your Facebook account so that they can publicly share your body with all of the other men reading, and you have no recourse lest you be labelled an 'angry feminist', you will find that one single Web site where women treat men in a similar fashion does not inspire the same level of passion that it is doing here.

It is a terrible Web site, obviously, but i am envious of the social position that leads to such a complete lack of irony and self-reflection as seen in these comments.
