Hijacking for personal benefit. I'm a long time cold cereal breakfast addict. I eat the store brand equivalent of Life cereal (has actual sugar!) mostly, along with other things like apple cinnamon cheerios. I don't eat anything with a strange color that dies the milk, contains hardtack marshmallow or has a cartoon character on the box.

In an effort to substitute something more nutritious and dense, I was considering trying the Greek yogurt breakfast approach for a few weeks based on some Cleveland Clinic advice I read about better breakfast habits--I don't have time to make omelettes in the morning.

I'm going to be buying this stuff at the grocery store. What am I looking for? I don't like overly sweetened stuff and usually don't like fruit/yogurt. I'm also looking for the real thing. Not any non-fat crap. May add my own granola if I find it too boring over time. I've seen some that comes with honey. Are there any good "common" brands I should look for beyond reading labels? Sounds like you've looked into this and I would appreciate your and anyone else's advice before I hit the store this weekend.

Ask HN: Online photo service for my entire library?
I would love to sync my entire 500gb+ Aperture library to the web for anyone to browse. I would mark photos / albums as public, give a friend access to a private album, give family access to many private albums, and give my girlfriend access to the whole library, all from the web interface.

I know this is possible, but has anyone done it yet?
Yes, I wish there was a way to turn OFF the video component of Hangouts when receiving a call via Google Voice. On one of my systems the launch of Hangouts does take a few seconds - and that seems to be largely related to bringing up the video component.

I'm very much surprised by this given the converse situation at my last^3 company; this was an organization that had been around in the old .com days and therefore owned three (I think) /16s. We used globally routeable addresses for all hosts including our individual desktops, and I understood this made life much easier, e.g. it made it easier to set up VPN connections because there was no risk of collisions between our networks and people's home networks. And when we were bought out by a large multinational conglomerate there was no danger of collision between our and their networks, so connecting them was as simple as, well, connecting them.
I'll clarify.

I'll make no comments about medicine - I know nothing about education in this field.

The bachelors programs in the IITs are great, by global standards. IISc does some cool work too. Leaving those aside, a BS in engineering (called BE or BTech here) is not bad. We have some outdated courses, we don't have the freedom to choose courses, etc. But for most of our courses, we use the same textbooks as Americans, Brits, Australians, etc. I suppose we have similar kinds of lab sessions too.

Academia (includes bacherlors, masters, PhD, post-doc, professorship, research papers, conferences, journals, funding, etc.) in India is generally terrible. ME/MTech in India is mostly useless. BE/BTech in India is not bad.
But it should be on the FAQ - that was my point.

You seem to say "ran" which implies it was a some time in past.

When exactly was this? Also FF is moving very rapidly, I remember FF 19(possibly 20) with no addons being way slower on my laptop than Chrome while its nightly at the time - FF 22 (or 23-24) ran blazingly fast (with same addons as FF 19) on par with Chrome.

> the sort of stuff that's generally passed off as art

I'm not sure what you're referring to here, but it's surely not relevant. 99% of everything is shit. The only things that matter are the things that matter. That you don't know about them is not my concern.

Yes, science fiction serves a similar role. Fine art also informs science fiction. And vice versa. But they are different things that reveal different aspects of our culture, its evolution, and its direction. There is not only a single sense of 'seeing the future' that may be fulfilled by one or another discipline!

You sound like somebody who simply lacks an education in fine art. You would not be aware of the the influence of art if you were not immersed in, or if you hadn't studied in depth a culture that values, understands and makes use of it. I would argue further that cultures who do not value art in some form are impoverished, for they lack that particular perspective of highly sensitive people.

What seems to you like a marketing effort started from a real customer need, believe it or not.

Would I use a boilerplate? No. Do I think boilerplates are useful as a start for many people? Absolutely. I wish I could show you some of the job descriptions that companies put up using our software. They are hideous, wrong, uninformative, clearly showing you that people have no idea how to write a good job description.

We started off by creating some simple templates, as a guidance, so we help our customers make something nicer. We ended up building a small library and thus we decided to share them. (I guess that counts as marketing, but at least you get something useful)

Back to the original question.. are boileplates a bad thing? My answer is "it depends on what you would do without them". If you can write a half-decent description of the person you need, in your own words, then by all means don't use boilerplates.

If you're a very small company, hiring for the first time maybe and you need to start off by customising something, get some inspiration.. boilerplates are useful.

We make software for the small and medium company. We feel that software is not just the buttons. It's also the method. It's every kickstart you can give your customer to do his job a bit better. (for some, our guides on how to hire is the best form of help, others want to get the canned thing and make a few changes..)

I’m using Opera, so Firefox and IE are not exactly gold standards of nonugliness to me. The biggest contributor to me finding Chrome ugly is certainly that the tab bar is placed on the top rather than the left (and me being too lazy to search for an appropriate extension to change that).
Also, wouldn't the premium of leasing or owning "retail" style property make the cost of maintaining the building too costly? I don't think Sears needs a datacenter on main street, or within a strip-mall.

After RTFA I pulled this:

"Farney acknowledges that many of Sears’ mall-based retail locations aren’t viable for data center usage. “I don’t think the industry is yet ready for a mall-based data center,” he said. “That may take some time. The stand-alone location is optimal.”"

It seems they are considering it more for certain stand-alone locations.
RE: Map processing.

I had a similar issue uploading from Aperture and it turns out there are 2 privacy settings in Aperture that have to be changed in order to upload geolocation data. I'm not sure if that's your same problem, but privacy settings may be something to check.

> ...Flask is pretty good. By it's nature, it's not a framework for new web developers...

Curious (and no experience web dev-ing here), why not? Flask and Bottle seem "minimalist", which in my thought process means less stuff to worry about to start simple apps in.

This logic could of course be upside down - less framework = more code to write?
Actually, it's worse than that. There are so many factors beyond your control, you could try like nine or ten times before you found out whether you are cut out for it or not. Not saying people shouldn't try, just that it's not as simple as only trying.
In subsequent testing, I've noticed, too, that the Hangouts ring before the other devices.

Good question. I looked at the code and it appears we preventDefault for mouseup and mousedown but not for keyup and keydown. I will ask around why that's the case. Can you give me an example keyboard shortcut where this is happening ?

Lessons Learned: A Year with a Large AngularJS Project
Follow up to The most pleasant job interview I have ever had
I'm certain there are many companies that are doing precisely that - but, your introduction sentence was important, "Owned three /16s" - your company had already developed practices and procedures that assumed everyone had a globally routable IP address, and so it was much more likely that when they transitioned to IPv6, that they would likewise use globally routable IPv6 addresses. I bet there is a good chance that they went to the effort of getting their own provider independent IPv6 space - which eliminates a lot (all?) of the hassle associated with using a /48 chunk from their ISPs /32. I got started late in the game (1998), so I've never worked for a company that had a lot of globally routable space (a /18 at most). We always started out inside in RFC 1918, and saved our globally routable space for internet-facing hosts.

The nice things about RFC 4193, is that while the routes aren't floating around on the internet, the addresses you assign are highly, highly unlikely to conflict with someone else's network, and, in the very rare situation that they do during a merger/acquisition - you are no worse off than if you had changed ISPs and had to renumber your internal network anyways. Per RFC 4193 (Section 3.2.3), if you connected with 100 other networks, the probability of collision is 4.54*10^-09 - so the vast majority of the time you won't have a renumbering exercise to worry about.

Note, though - I'm not suggesting that anybody else adopt this strategy of using RFC 4193, and I actually wish more of my colleagues would start using globally routable IPv6 for their internal networks - particularly so I can learn from them to find out what they do when they change ISPs.

Why does Google have people working on finding security issues in Microsoft Windows?
I'm a little surprised by this. The article implies that shuttered Sears stores already have the power and data capacity to function as a data center, but I can't imagine why. Compared to similar sized buildings (office buildings or factories, mostly), Sears retail locations don't seem to have a lot of power- or data-intensive needs.

Sears does have some amazing infrastructure (lots of square footage, locations at key transportation points in densely populated areas throughout the country, huge parking lots) but those aren't really the kind of features that data centers are usually optimizing for. I'm sure they're finding creative uses for this infrastructure, but I doubt it's anything like a data center as we think of one.

I have ditched iPhoto as my archiving software and moved my +150GB of photos and videos to Flickr

Nice! Glad it works for you. I suspect that a lot of people won't be using Flickr for everything because of NSFW photos that shouldn't live off the hard drive. That's certainly a concern for me.

I'd definitely emphasize this: "a better Mac/Windows/Linux native app would go a long way for power users" is a huge one. Right now the OS X version doesn't simply default to intelligent settings, which is bothersome: it should start uploading as soon as a photo is selected (along the lines of Instagram).

The flip side of the coin is that, if we use that definition of wealth, then that means wealth is also subject to entropy. A car that you restore to pristine condition will rust and decay over time, even if you don't drive it. It will lose its value.

So it seems like becoming wealthy isn't just a matter of generating value, but rather generating it faster than it disappears.
Most people I know do it via some form of API integration with desktop photo managers. Lightroom/Aperture plugins come to mind (I think it's built-in to Lightroom now?)

The trick is also that most photo sharing sites don't actually have a good way to manually upload photos. Most (see: Instagram, Facebook, etc) excel only when you go through their apps.
You talk like the whole world agreed that having to clear samples was a good thing for the music industry.
There is a trick running the web browser on an iPhone with WebGL enabled using testflightapp. We hope that Apple will enable WebGL as a default soon. Basically the technology is all there...
Probably a photo editing app. Adobe Lightroom has a Flickr plugin and I think a 30 day free trial. Import everything into Lightroom, and then set up the Flickr plugin, and then push everything to your account.
Certainly a valid argument, and thanks for the link I will check it out.

All I can say is "good luck, you'll need it." I don't think India has a unique problem with its' higher ed system.

Consider that the modern university is based on ideas developed in the late Middle Ages, throw in a healthy dash of politics (both formal and informal), and the gatekeeper factor, why would any university feel the need to change?

Do today's kids have the gumption to boycott the system? We didn't - instead we adapted, just like the kids at St. Stephen's.

To be fair to Indians, we Americans probably get even more agitated at criticism from outside (or inside.)
Flickr? You can control privacy of "sets" and they have 1TB included now.
I wish there were. That is what I feel like I need.

This used to be how every company worked. Manufacturers trainedt people. But companies have pushed the cost of training onto workers. Now there are tons of positions requiring training going unfilled. NPR had a story about this not too long ago.

I think that there is also an issue with training people, then losing them to successful companies that don't have to train people. H1-b visa holders are the obvious exception... Cheaper than Americans. And they need an employer sponsor to stay in the country which makes leaving for another job difficult.

I think training programs that feed into jobs ala hacker school are at least a step in the right direction.

Ultimately, I would like to see companies form coalitions to support training people. I think that that could work. Get some economies of scale combined with attempts at innovation. Have tracks for devops, testing, project management etc. Do research on how to train people. And do it cheaper and better than an academic institution by teaching both concepts and implementation and having certification to industry standards, not academic ones.
It may not happen often where you are but there are plent of places where a 24/7 internet connection isn't guaranteed and personally I'd still like to play my XBox when Comcast decided drop the ball for the 5th time this week :)
I agree with you, although I probably would not have a while ago. Now I can say firsthand that it does make a big difference what you are able to accomplish based on where you are.

First of all the fact remains that there is an age discrimination hurdle present in most parts of the country (almost opposite in Silicon Valley where apparently they discriminate against the old).

Second starting out in an area surrounded by individuals who are more likely to embrace your ideas and progress and in general be more open minded leads to faster progress, regardless of if you succeed or fail. If the idea works great if not then you find out faster and move on but at least you don't have to spend time dealing with unrelated hurdles.

Its not that Silicon Valley or MIT are some great magical places, its that the people that are already there are creating the culture that make it easier to succeed. Second regarding industry, again I agree, compare the tech industry to drug development or biotech (my area) which is so incredibly regulated and tough to get an idea approved much less tested that even big money (pharma,vc,etc) is walking away despite the obvious benefit to humanity oh and not to mention boatloads of money that could be made.

Highly recommend HyperPDF addon. PDF creation has been non-trivial (or very expensive) for Heroku apps. My company found out about and started using this Heroku add-on last weekend, and went straightaway into production with a valuable new feature yesterday. Very easy to setup and use. Exceptionally responsive tech support. One thing that sold us was that the top tier allows unlimited number of PDF docs/month, whereas the other alternative on Heroku doesn't have an "all you can eat" alternative.
OS independent is the web app. I prefer the traditional PHP/MySQL but YMMV.

Then again it depends on what you are developing. PHP is good for what I'm doing but not necessarily for games and such.
