The only thing that bothers me about the concatenative languages I've seen is the stack. It is a global variable. You don't have the bounding (this is your part of the stack) that you have in languages that have an enforced frame for procedure/method calls.

Sometimes I wonder what a concatenative language would look like if operations could only access things given them by the immediately previous operation and if those things were read-only.
Humans are not apes. Neither literally, nor figuratively. That's not only incorrect, but it's a vicious thing to say, and it has dangerous implications.
The solution of course is higher taxation or philanthropy. The gardener should be paid to build a public garden, not private garden.

You should be paying someone who is more efficient than you at those tasks, so you can write software to solve problems more efficiently than your customers do otherwise. That is wealth creation across a community.

You should not be paying someone (x N) to work at a much lower hourly wage than you simply because you have accumulated more wealth.

Now, some dose of income inequality is healthy, to motivate individuals to better themselves and be valuable (education, skill, physical execise), but extreme inequality is to be remedied by rebalancing the income, not just making someone work for you.

What you call inefficiency others call profit.

The more times money moves around the more money others stand to gain. The economy as a whole does well when moving between parties at a consistent rate.

Eliminating the inefficient transaction doesn't just hurt profit. It hurts the very core of how our economic models currently work.

That being said Bitcoin is currently no threat to that system. It's hard to imagine it ever being honestly.

>What in your words is the problem that you are trying to solve?

Improve video sharing and discovery.

>I think the video could do with more fleshed out.

I wondered how long it would be until I got a comment on the lack of narration. This was my first video screen record ever, I downloaded trial Camtasia and made this on a whim after watching Drew's DropBox demo, sad to say I actually did the narration but I had the sound options off for my mic. I watched the Sqwiggle video and it is not just more polished than mine, but on another level professionally. I will consider remaking a demo to show more features (logging in, uploading video, ect...), and in your words be more fleshed out.

"Steer clear of Facebook’s Home for Android"

I steer clear of Facebook, other than logging in on a separate browser for 10 minutes a day. However, most people are not like me and they are unlikely to care about the "steer clear" advice. They live on Facebook, jut as most people live online /browser (but use a Windows computer to get there)

Ask HN: Itchy Feet - Problem Worth Solving?
Hi, all -
I have had 4 jobs in different fields and tech stacks (enterprise - J2EE, web startup - RoR, health care - Java and web scrapers, and technology - Groovy with Swing), all of them lasting about 2 years before I get itchy feet and decide to move on. At first, I figured it was just a matter of outgrowing the positions I was hired for, and as I kept getting increasing levels of responsibility at each new position, that seemed to make sense. However, I'm starting to see a pattern where I take a new job, dig in and learn everything I can about a new tech stack and problem set, get bored and then move on, and I'm not quite sure what to make of it.

I started my current job 15 months ago, and yet again, I'm starting to get itchy feet. What started out as a challenging job has become routine - it's just a matter of banging out features as quickly as I can. There's always the option of overcomplicating features to steal a chance to do more challenging work, but that's a temptation I do my best to resist. I've mentioned this to my boss and asked for a chance to do something new for a few months (mobile development, devops, even some design work), and she's been less than receptive. Hence, I'm starting to look around, and I'm wondering if I'm going to wind up in the same cycle. I'd like to find a place I can stick for a while, if possible, without winding up in the same rut.

Is anyone else familiar with this sort of pattern? Anyone have any tips?
The whole reason why HN is my preferred place to read news, is that I do not need a filter like this. Comments are generally useful and if someone posts something stupid, its greyed out in the bottom. That being said, cool idea.
I've been burned by these kind of tools before, when I started using the CDPATH variable, as supported by bash.

Imagine the situation where you have a bunch of domains stored beneath /home/www. For example "/home/www/example.com" and "/home/www/example.org". (This is common for vhosts with a single prefix).

I decided I was going to get rid of the archived copies beneath /var/backup - so I decide to run "cd /var/backup; cd example.com; rm -rf *". Because of the path-searching I ended up at my live location, not my (obsolete) backup.

Since then I've always decided to navigate manually.

Precisely.

This is exactly it. If one is born into money, the sense of entitlement is in-bred and it doesn't need to be asserted explicitly, leave alone aggressively.
That was more figurative, and perhaps too much of a literary flourish. My point is that this behavior is endemic to our species, and not unlike that observed among chimps or other members of Hominoidea, as detailed in: http://evolvingthoughts.net/2012/03/are-humans-apes-monkeys-...

You know, it's really interesting how people can become oblivious to the concerns of others. It's not necessarily wealth that does it either. It can be a job promotion, parents that always bend to the will of their child, or a variety of other factors.

The most shocking thing is that I don't think these people realize they are doing it either. Now certainly there are some who realize it and just don't care (psychopaths or sociopaths), but I think it is more common that people lose the ability to think about the consequences of their actions.

Evaluation of my actions is something I try hard to do with myself. It is very, very difficult to objectively evaluate yourself and how you come across to others. Something you may not even think twice about can have a lasting, negative effect on someone else. You don't know what that person is going through; maybe they just got laid off or lost a relative -- who knows what really.
Actually, in countries with strong legal systems where the risk of losing money is real, this sort of behavior is held somewhat in check. But when no one is looking, or the risk of being caught is low, it happens. One can make the argument that the entire mortgage crisis was one where the insiders (rich people on Wall Street) knew the edifice was crumbling, and went ahead and made bets against its survival, while selling instruments out the back door that were the opposite bets. These were promptly sold off to the hinterlands of the country. And of course the poor saps that bought overpriced houses paid the price. Those on Wall Street not only made obscene amounts of money on those bets, but never were prosecuted for it. It's good to be rich.

Something to turn this into a killer extension would be "Hide comments that use words on my filter list".

I had this exact same pattern for a while!

It sounds to me like contracting is worth exploring. When I contracted (for about 7 years), I was exposed to new technologies and business domains every couple of months. I fondly remember about 2 weeks into every contract there was an 'oh sh*t' moment where I realized I was in over my head and running to keep ahead of what the client needed. Of course, that was nicely counterbalanced by the 'aaah' moment about 6 weeks in when things were finally jelling.

(I mostly worked on custom web applications and ecommerce and made a decent living working 30 hours a week.)

If you pursue this path, you might want to consider going out on your own as a single person consulting company, rather than going through a contracting company. You'll have more control, though less security, and will have a wider scope of project domains. That said, if you are interested in certain types of projects (J2EE, big data) you might find it hard to contract as a one person show.

Of course, I don't know what your financial situation is, but if you pursue this, I'd start going to meetups, have about a year of expenses saved in the bank, and read a couple of good books like this one: http://www.amazon.com/The-Secrets-Consulting-Getting-Success... and this one: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/027363707X/002...

The most tragic part of the story is that it took a suicide for anyone to care.
As I was reading this, I kept thinking, Is this a satire of the American government? But no, it was just some jingoistic piece singling out one foreign country.

I accept that the Chinese government is terrible. It's the incredulous "it would never happen in The Free World™" tone of the article that pisses me off.

Do people believe the government doesn't shut down or freeze individual sites at will? Been on 4chan today?

Do people really believe the Chinese government has jailed more people for expression on the Internet than the United States government? Do people believe the U.S. government isn't monitoring or manipulating the Internet? Back doors? Warrantless surveillance? Lurking? Subpoenas for user information without so much as a judge's signature? FISA? NDAA? CISPA? Does the FBI not track people or pay personal visits to people who say the wrong thing on Facebook or YouTube or any other social site?

I know we can express more here in the United States than people can in China, but I really think the feds are using the entire Internet as one giant honeypot right now, and the lid's just waiting to come down. We know the FBI collects information on non-criminal activities both in the real world and on the Internet in the event that those activities become illegal in the future. (Gore sites, for example, are being watched. It's not illegal to post gore. But when it becomes illegal, the FBI will have a list of all those people who posted on the clear Web.)

Do you know how easy it would be for the government to shut down the entire Internet in America? You have a few wireless operators, all heavily beholden to the federal government. You have a few cable and telco monopolies. Their executives and board members are all interchangeable, all part of the same sphere of influence — essentially a telecommunications cadre. This isn't accidental.

I say 10 friendly phone calls from the federal government could get 90 percent of the Internet shut down in this country inside of an hour.

Anyway, they haven't done it here yet. But that's about the only thing that distinguishes us from them.
It's not the same as ads - the guidelines only refers to paid links which pass PageRank (ie. Without nofollow on them).

Doing something to achieve an SEO benefit that is in contravention of the guidelines of the search engine you are optimising for, because you assume you can't or won't be caught (for example because they can't look at your books and weren't present during the meeting where you sold the link) is the definition of black hat SEO.

It may well be the case that Google lacks the ability to enforce certain aspects of their guidelines at some points in time, but as we have seen in the past couple of years when they do figure it out it can be a business closing event for some.

Much better to just follow the guidelines don't you think?

If Anons truly received a flood of testimony after posting on some forums, law enforcement must have pretty much actively avoided hearing testimony.

The photo/video-sharing aspect of this case is particularly interesting; not analyzing available data from the internet (or simply not even knowing photos/video pertaining to the case are being widely distributed) is likely going to be a focal point, but heightened law enforcement use of evidence from the digital domain is probably touchy for many of the same Anons that contributed to this.
His main thesis focuses far more on why people who don't live in Facebook wouldn't like this ("it took over too much of the phone") than why people who like Facebook will like it. The mention of features Facebook fans would love was really more of an afterthought than the point. It was like saying "all this stuff sucks but I guess it'd be cool if you love Facebook". Articles like this always seem to be written by someone who doesn't understand the audience of the product.

"So while Home offers more of Facebook than you’re likely to want, it gives you fewer ways of interacting with the social network than you probably would like." (emphasis mine)

Written like exactly the kind of person I'm describing. I think if it were fair criticism then it would focus more on how engrossing and mesmerizing the author says it is and of course then mention some of its lacking features. If you take out all the love-to-hate-it parts it'd end up being a fairly positive review of the product.

And please don't do that, the "not sure if you read the article" thing. I didn't come away with the same message as you but I read it.

Things work now (so I'll delete my previous comment)...

First off, congratulations on finishing the video - finishing a demo video is hard work and you have a great start.

When I started the video, I had no idea what your product does or what it is for. I had to watch it all the way through to gain some sense of what your product actually does. So, if I were you, I'd do some work to make sure that its purpose is clearly defined. For example, some really good demo videos start off with a statement of purpose - ie - I want to solve x because of y.

From there, I think I'd base the video around showing how your product actually does solve the problem.

As for narration, I'm of two minds. Yes, narration would be helpful, but only if you have good quality audio and a good script. Sometimes, poor quality audio (or a bad script) do more damage than good. Consequently, I'd also consider using some of Camtasia's other features (ie - callouts) to tell your story and explain your product and the need it solves.

Great work though!!
The Globe and Mail (http://www.theglobeandmail.com/) among other national Canadian papers are covering this story extensively. Be forewarned the details are to me very disturbing - both of the incident and subsequent treatment of the victim, but also of the official response which the article covers.
What rules do they have to follow? It sounds like they were contacted by the witnesses.
Those are features of Chrome and not really an "app". It is not new for web developers to target specific features of a web browser. I have not qualms about calling Chrome apps that can be ran offline apps. Perhaps I am looking at this from the wrong perspective. For Chrome OS, a link that is acting like an app that you can "Alt+Tab" to would play better into the idea of an app than another tab in your Chrome browser. Almost every "app" on the chrome store I have interacted with has been an app-like icon that is a link to a URL that functions identically in Firefox or other browsers.
Sounds cool, I do think the route you're going down could lead to a novel service. I can imagine searching for mountain biking (a hobby of mine) videos and being able to filter them down by zooming on specific trail areas, i.e. the alps, forest near my town etc. I definitely think it could add a new dimension to the current discovery channel of searching through pages and pages of irrelevent videos.

I definitely think it would benefit you a lot. Coming from experience with a video of mine[1] a simple demo video doesn't seem to excite people very much. I went down the route of "I'll spend as little time as possible on the video so I can continue with the development", but really, marketing tools like this can't be ignored. In your case especially you have a classic chicken and egg problem and will need to encourage users to post videos.

Hope I've helped a bit.

Yep. For example, why did those people who know the rapists or had the photos apparently not give them to the police before? Or did the case that Anonymous built actually work out in the end?
