This is the type of thing that totally confuses you? People pay to offload a little work all the time. Do you whittle your own toothpicks? That's just a piece of wood. Do you make your own floss? That's just waxed thread. I thought it was a little silly at first but by the end of the video I'd figure for a couple bucks it might be cool. One thing I wasn't however was left totally confused.
Xcode mostly
The confusion here, of course, is that text editor implies something. IntelliJ, for example, is not a text editor, and I do not use it as such.

The question implies (though, luckily, the answers are not limited) that you use just one text editor. Quite the opposite in fact, I feel if you are just using one tool for the job (always in vim, for example), you are unnecessarily limiting yourself to your tool set.

When all you have is a hammer, and all that jazz.

Edit: I should note that I'm just being whiny this morning. I should go back to playing with code.
Emacs is mentioned twice in the list of options.
Actually, it's impossible to skim anyone with a regular reader. Because NFC cards are active, they need to receive a decryption key from the terminal first, before they broadcast their own data. Commercial readers are not able to read bank cards, they mostly show the card's type,and that's it, every memory bank is marked as private and cannot be read without the authorization key. So a skimmer would need to use an actual payment terminal obtained from a bank, and only such terminal would be able to read and charge money from contactless cards. But to get such a terminal,you would need to register with a bank and would be super easy to trace down.
I would have liked to see a benchmark for the deterministically linear O(n) BFPRT [1] algorithm as well. It plays out well in worst case scenarios if you have a very large dataset.

The site's called Hacker News for a reason, and it caters to entrepreneurs for the same reason. We're already people with something of a penchant for not caring about the "practical" or "reasonable," or even considering that to be a challenge.

But if we're going to talk about what is practical and reasonable, then let's look back at awk's niche: prying data out of line-oriented text files. For that particular task, C and the basic lisps rank among my languages of last resort: assembler (pick an architecture) would be worse, but that's just about it. There are libraries for these languages which would help significantly, but my awk script would be finished and halfway through the dataset by the time I even got the build environment set up for these languages, and the code would still be more clear.

Like I said, the right tool for the job. For many tasks -most, actually- awk would not be very high on my list of languages to try. But find a task that hits awk's sweet spot, and nothing beats it.
Good results here from a year ago...

Sure. I'll do my best to clear things up.

Unions are a combination of bad and good, just like corporations, franchises, and any other organization. One of the major flaws of the union for me is that you can't get promoted on the job based on merit. The only way to get a raise and to get more work is to work more, not harder or smarter. When I work on the docks, I work steady and safe. Maybe this is actually a good thing because it is a dangerous place to work and they don't want anyone trying to be a hotshot.

As for the good, there is a sense of organization and community beyond anything I've experienced before in my life. There are about 5,000 Casuals and we all know that we are part time temp labor, so we all do what we can to help one another. Things like powerball pools, buying and selling or services or other part time hustles (plumbing, towing, hanging tvs', etc.), and various other community related things are common.

Things that limit communication: The ones that make the decisions that affect us all, are doing so in their best interest and not the interest of the port or for the economy. For example, fully automated ports move cargo at only around 30% of what we do, but since they don't have to pay pensions for the machine or give them benefits, it's worth the slower move time. As for the union, there is not a long term strategy for the future of its workers at the port. A majority of casuals don't even know what the union President's name is.

It's kind of ironic that the actual job is the most organized thing I've seen (for example, we can unload over 3,000 cars from a ship in about 6 hours), but the organization process for the port itself, is awful.

These are just my opinions as of this moment. It's possible I could just simply be completely in the dark or not doing a good enough job of finding out the answers.
Emacs has its own version of powerline. You can turn off most of the annoying frills like the menu bar, the scroll bars, the toolbar and the fringe. You can also use a nice typeface (I'm very partial to Deja-vu Sans Mono) and a nice color scheme (I like blackboard).

I think the final result looks rather good: http://jelv.is/emacs-blackboard.png and http://jelv.is/emacs-demo.png.
>But they're not making a specific claim. They're making a generalized claim to tell the story.

"Consider this: You have just paid about three times as much for your degree as did someone graduating 30 years ago. That’s in constant dollars — in other words, after accounting for inflation. [...] According to the College Board, in 1983 a typical private American university managed to provide a bachelor’s-degree-level education to young people just like you for $11,000 a year in tuition and fees. That’s in 2012 dollars."

Thanks! That looks way better than my current emacs! Will try it out
That's BS. I use my contactless cards wherever I can. The only people that ever had a problem with it are some store managers, who didn't even know that they had a contactless terminal and were completely baffled with what I just did. Also, UK does not have enough of them, I wish they had contactless terminals in every shop, like they do in my own country.

And you are completely wrong to say that the customers don't know if the transaction was approved or not - the terminal definitely shows "Transaction Approved" when using a contacless card.
Actually, Instagram turned out to be a fantastic deal. Many thought it was over-valued at the time but Instagram has passed 100 million active users early this year and users spend more time on Instagram than they do on Twitter (or practically any other app than Facebook or email). In retrospect, I think $1 Billion was a steal.
I would say "tested" would have been a better word.

It's been difficult at times, but like ToniVlaic said, you need to try your best to balance relationships, friends, family, and health.
In Hong Kong you verbally ask to pay by for example Octopus (the most popular card) and it activates that option only. So I don't think double charging is possible here.
Notepad++, Eclipse, Vim depending on what I'm doing.

Eclipse when frequently moving between many files in a project, quickly opening project files via CTRL-SHIFT-R, and to benefit from configured project stuff like file synchronization or some plugins e.g. for legacy VCS that we partially use and I don't want to waste time to learn.

Notepad++ mostly when performing some find & replace operations and opening files that are not imported into Eclipse.

Occasionally Vim when I want to do sth quickly without leaving the console, like minor editing, Git commit messages etc.
Thanks, that looks nice, do you happen to have your config available somewhere?

I'm wondering why BBEdit is missing in this poll? It's one of the best Mac text editors. Rock solid with a great support and tons of powerful features right out of the box.

Some users like apps that just work - you don't need to waist hours to customize, add plugins, tweak and turn.
That looks nice, do you have the config for that available somewhere? Thanks!
Lighttable is already very pleasant to use. It's light on features but it's new and it's coming along nicely.
Agreed, and expect the old guard to lobby more states than SC to put in rules that will severely hamper Tesla (by requiring them to open dealerships everywhere). (I realize SC hasn't voted it into law yet, but there is noise there about it.)

Is this factually incorrect? If so, please cite the source that contradicts the common knowledge that ed descended from QED, developed entirely separate from the MIT environment that led to EMACS. Which explains why EMACS couldn't be less like a good UNIX program.

I like Emacs. Enough to vote for both Emacs options :P.

With something like Evil, you can get most of the benefits of Vim combined with all the power of Emacs. I'm not a user myself, but it sounds awesome--I'm considering learning Vim commands just to take advantage of it.

The only downside is the learning curve. And I think there is a philosophical point to make here: for a tool you'll be using as much as your text editor, the learning curve should not really matter. Even if it takes you a while to get used to Emacs/Vim, the productivity benefit will more than pay for itself. I think optimizing for a shallow learning curve is simply focusing on the wrong thing and actively counter-productive.

If that's your only take-away from all this, I'll be content.
I can definitely recommend using org-mode for tech blogging.

With the #+BEGIN_SRC tag you can automatically get an export of code set by the emacs-mode for that language, in addition to markup for other text.
I might take your post at face value, but I know the Cards guys are currently working on releasing a CBS-property branded expansion pack. If CBS' guys can can do it, I have to question your pitch. It sounds like you're on the other end of trope where the "idea guy" goes to programmer with lame idea; maybe the idea was even good but something else in the message that proved it would never work.

It's a real shame too. It will go out of style in a year or two and, gasp, maybe these people will have to get real jobs or start a real company! Assholes.

With a grudge like that, who's the one full of themselves now? They didn't follow the standard business song and dance. So what? Who cares? I'd might even say "good on them" if I knew the full situation.

start a real company

Yeah! Their product isn't ruthless data harvesting. What are they, babies?
This move doesn't make much sense to me. Most of the websites built in PHP are huge CMS services like Weebly, Wordpress, Joomla, or old social networks like Facebook. I don't see any of these large services switching over to get hosted on Google. Plus PHP in general is disorganized and slow compared to more contemporary languages with well defined frameworks.

Text editor is too complicated if you need to learn how to use it..
Does IntelliJ and Eclipse really qualify as text editor here?
I'd say i'm using a mixture of vim (server side work), Sublime Text (quick text editing) and IntelliJ/PyCharm (coding).
I wish Tesla made hipster apps with mediocre photo filters too, so they could have some additional money easily to do their awesome stuff xD
I thought about a trial period, as it would be a good way to test & see if we're a good fit in terms of philosophies & approaches to different things.

But then I wondered about what would happen if I ended up deciding I didn't want to work with this person anymore- how would I compensate them for what their contribution was up until the point that I decided to pull the plug on the relationship? How would they know I wasn't just working them to get some contribution out of them with the intent of dumping them in the first place. I certainly wouldn't want any ill-will at the end of our working together, so I'd want a fair way of parting ways somehow, and I couldn't afford to pay for their work until later when the company makes money.

So that solution doesn't seem do-able anymore.

The future you describe is the distant past for many of us.

We've been using chroot, FreeBSD jails, Solaris Containers, and similar technologies for many years now. Combined with the basic functionality of UNIX and UNIX-like systems, we can quite safely isolate users, apps and data, but without the overhead and inconvenience of heavy-weight virtualization techniques. Even then, these techniques are quite new relative to what's been available to mainframe users for many decades.
Emacs is so good, it's listed twice to dilute the votes and give other editors a chance.
Finger crossed for a retina 11" model with a very big SSD... if it does not happen I'll probably use the money to get a big replacement SSD for my current 11" model instead, that's fast enough with its i7 for most programming tasks.

Edit: apparently my mid-2011 model is not capable of installing big enough SSDs, so I'll have to upgrade anyway to the new model.

You used the words 'mindset' and 'undercurrent' to describe these sensations. Do the sensations occur visually taking space and having orientations? If you think of trigger concepts sequentially do the colors align to form a spacial sequence. Is there any way a normal person can understand what you 'see'? Anyone here who can add something on this because its a fascinating aspect of our consciousness.

EditPlus---although at some point I will have built in to Sublime all of the features that I like. That said I'll probably always use it. Face it since I use notepad, It's unlikely that I'll abandon any editor that fits a need. I particularly like Emacs ability to write a task oriented package as a kind of drop in edit/language. Hell, I use editors like I use languages---use the right one for the task at hand.
Emacs-Vim combinations are a lot of fun. I used Emacs+Viper (or VILE or evil or something-can't really remember) along with SLIME when learning lisp, and it was definitely the best of both worlds. The Vim philosophy of separating editing and typing works really well with code-as-data philosophy of lisp, and Paredit + a built-in REPL made changes and feedback nearly instant. Playing with the editor was almost as fun as actually writing programs!
Here in Australia we have PayPass which is Mastercard. Most places have eftpos terminals (handheld pin entry things) where they just tap the card and it charges your card.

It scares me that they could charge any amount and you wouldn't know.
Convenience for privacy. :)
BBEdit +1 from me too.

I abandoned BBEdit for Textmate around 2006 I think. I went back to BBEdit when Textmate looked like it was a dead-end (2011 ish?).

Three things that drew me (back) to BBEdit:

1. Most of the features from TextMate I used made it to BBEdit (Cmd-T, packages)
2. BBEdit has been around for 20 years... I really don't want to pick up, learn, and spend years investing in a flash in the pan editor.
3. I *really* don't want to fiddle with lisp to configure my editor

There are still some features in TextMate I miss. For example, TM's language grammers are still lightyears ahead of BBEdit's, and having written half a dozen grammers for each platform I know of which I speak. But BBEdit is solid and pretty great.

Also, shell worksheets are pretty amazing.

Not necessarily. Almost all car manufacturers are anticipating this kind of transition and have back up plans already [1]. I bet Tesla will become what Apple is to smartphones and then the rest will gradually pace up and someday attain equilibrium (or even overshoot) with Tesla's roadmap.

For example, a lot of manufacturers are already developing electric vehicles for masses, just that they don't want to get their feet wet and they want someone else to do it first , so they can just jump in and join them if the market is actually ripe.

Mass adoption of electric vehicles is what most manufacturers fear and which is a valid concern, which is why Tesla's move is particularly so important.

Automotive industry is one industry where nobody is 'too late' for the party. As of now, I personally want to see Tesla succeed.

[1]Nissan, Toyota, Mistubishi, Chevrolet, Hyundai, BMW, Audi, etc. all have EV's in their roadmaps, some are budget EV's too.
Looking forward to a Tesla car I could actually afford ;)

Great time to do this, with their greatly increased stock price and still very low interest rates. They're repaying their debt when they have the greatest leverage (unlike the common industry practice of buying back stock when their stock is the most expensive), which is a very shrewd decision.
The real way is to jumble up the photos and get people to guess which is which.

I learned that Tesla is already taking preorders for the Model X, which is $45k (my mentor apparently put an order in).

Hopefully this means that we'll have a "Model Y" in the 25k-30k range in another 5 years!
I haven't put anything on the web because I don't have a web dev. I certainly would like to have something up on the web, but I can't afford to at this stage of the game. I can barely afford the server #1 I need to get off the ground renting. I don't know if that means I need access to more capital but I like to think I can do this without more than $5k.

If I had a web developer onboard with me, I envision there being a permission marketing campaign collecting email addresses of interested parties & delivering relevant content to them in anticipated doses to keep them interested. Being that we only have so many servers to rent & are just starting I would like to see a waiting list implemented, too.

I can do some stuff in plain text on the website, but I think its better off not drawing customers to it while it looks that way because they'll think it looks unprofessional.
What is the potential impact of this move when it comes to shareholders? I understand that a lot of the recent upside was caused by a short squeeze, which is a product of limited share availability.

Does this basically constitute a "cash out" for Tesla, and will this have a deflating effect on the stock?

OP: Please add LightTable if possible. I don't use it, but I am curious about its trajectory.
Having installed NixOS over a year ago, I was really impressed with the package manager. It's wonderful to be able to have multiple versions of GCC, haskell, etc side by side, so you can debug some of the reasons why your program works in one user's version/environment but not the other's. The actual papers are an interesting read as well.

When companies like Tesla sells bonds, where would you buy them from? And how would you know about them being made available? (Often seems to be that once it hits the news it's all over)
My actual .emacs file has a ton of things unrelated to this, so here are the relevant bits:

;; Make the window simpler
(tool-bar-mode -1)
(scroll-bar-mode -1)
(menu-bar-mode -1)
(fringe-mode 0)

Powerline and the color theme are installed separately. You can get powerline using the new package manager through M-x package-list-packages. You might have to configure some additional package sources first:

(require 'package)
(add-to-list 'package-archives
'("marmalade" . "http://marmalade-repo.org /packages/"))
(add-to-list 'package-archives
'("melpa" . "http://melpa.milkbox.net/packages/"))
(package-initialize)

You can then run powerline using

(require 'powerline)

It might take a little more configuration to get the powerline colors matching to what you want. You can also customize the shape of the separator: it doesn't have to be an arrow.

Unfortunately, the blackboard theme in the package manager is using the old color-theme package which has been made obsolete with Emacs 24. You should use the version ported to the new and improved theming mechanism[1].

[1]: https://github.com/don9z/blackboard-theme

Download that and put it in ~/.emacs.d/themes. Now you can set it up with:

(setq custom-theme-directory "~/.emacs.d/themes/")
(setq custom-safe-themes t)
(load-theme 'blackboard)

I hope that helps.
