Because current government tries to change how we live.

I think government's job is just trying to boost the economy, trying to not get into any war, paying the debts to IMF and etc.

But current ruling party forces our life styles into a shape which they draw.

Just one example:

- Taksim Square is a famous tourist attraction centers of Istanbul.
- Government first said to bars (pubs): "you can't put stalls on front of your bar." People protested just on facebook and twitter.
- They said: "you can't sell alcohol after 10pm but you can sell other things". Nothing happened. Just some protests but our PM labeled protesters as "alcoholics".
- After that they said: "Nope! No alcohol after 10 PM even for stores. You can't go to pubs, you can't buy from stores." People protested but PM said "So, you wanna raise your children as alcoholics?! We can't let this happen!"

You smell where these is going? Current ruling party tries to divide Turkey in two sides. "Religious good citizens" vs "atheists, lgbts, alcoholics, left-wings" etc.

Someone had to tell them "just because you are ruling party, you can't make everything you want". and we are trying to tell them this.

by the way, sorry for my english again.

Determinants:
(a) aren't necessecary for most of the traditional linear algebra curriculum
(b) involve a lot of tedious computation for students.
(c) do not generalize to the infinite-dimensional case.
(d) are almost never used in computational linear algebra, which is how the vast majority of students will actually tackle these problems in their careers as scientists and engineers.

I'm a big fan of Axler's(1) approach of simply avoiding determinants entirely as much as possible, though his text isn't really suitable for a general course. An approach that combines elements of Axler's and factorizations that are actually used in computation (schur form, the SVD, ...) can be nice, and is more useful to non-math/physics majors than the standard curriculum.

I did not mean that the mentioned resentment is the cause of the fines, but I think it is the cause of the coverage.
Not "minority" as in "racial minority". A small minority of the population commits this crime, and a majority do not and are not enticed by it.

A majority crime would be something like tax evasion. Almost everyone has probably under-reported taxes at some point, even if only by accident.
If you find yourself having to constantly restrain yourself from making bad comments about (all/most) Muslims and Jews, maybe the problem isn't just that society is too uptight.

This story has nothing to do with any religion whatsoever, messianic or not, yet your first instinct is to go on about Islam and then call people overly-PC for wondering what the hell you're on about.
LoL is horrible compared to Dota2 in this regard. You cant play every hero and with added points you get addex abilities. Dota2 micro-transactions only pay for cosmetic items that you can (mostly) also get via trading with other players or as a drop after each finished game.

I went away from software because of that for so many times. I can't remember the names of the software of companies anymore. I'm pretty sure they are not there anymore.

Sure YOU say the decision to make something go MUST be done. You don't even bring a reason for it here. I don't see it. Why does it HAVE to be made? Is the title bar going to be forbidden or something? Is it banned in some countries? I don't understand. I don't understand even more why I shouldn't have the CHOICE to make such irrelevant decision by myself. Why not? Give me at least one real reason...

Most of the time (like here) I have the feeling we are in some kind of Fashion Show. Some design guru decides: this will be like that now. All the big fashin designers jump on the train. But the fact remains that people on the street won't dress like that...and sure you push it here and there through the discounters and you may reach a mass where it becomes a thing. But initaly nobody wanted that. It may be even a worse kind of clothing. It may be a shoe that hurts your leg muscels in the end but nobody is interested in that because it is Fashion.

I see it the same way here. Don't take me wrong. I appriciate changes that are useful. I appriciate it even more if there are options but I don't see any reason to force Fashion moves on me in software.

A word on Win8? Nah I guess you already know ;)

@X Windows: are you kidding me? Do you want to start a discussion about marketing methods now and then? I guess you've just missed the point on that one. I can sell you the most ugly crap software if I have the money or the right marketing strategy but it has nothing to do with the topic.
They mean humans. No humans dead, none sick. Allswell, then, I guess.
The layout looks cool. IMO it's asking too much for me to create an account just so that I can see what your service offers. A single screenshot does not replace {enter the various options for telling and showing features}.
You know, open-source sites and User Groups already get job postings.

But I like your idea: The programmers should say "come, make me an offer", so long as you can make sure the offers are good.
FreedomPop primarily uses Clearwire's WiMax network.

Wholesale bandwidth is significantly cheaper on Clearwire than regular cell networks. (Clearwire gets an average revenue of $11 per user per month. Rumor is that their wholesale agreement with Sprint is roughly $1 per GB, or $10 per subscriber per month.)

If those numbers are true, then giving users 500mb free bandwidth might only cost FreedomPop as low as 50 cents per month per user.

Is Barefoot-Style Running Best? New Studies Cast Doubt
One of the better lessons I learned in Social Studies class in high school was that history swings back-and-forth like a pendulum. We go from one extreme to another.

We are in the era of BYOD and SaaS. We started with dumb terminals connected to mainframes, moved to standalone PCs, transitioned to client/server, got connected to the internet/web with browsers and now are connected globally to cloud-based servers and services.

There is a role for IT departments. What is certain is that the role of IT will shift to adapt to the times.

How to Turn Startup Ideas into Reality by Taking Money from Strangers
I've been using Dragon NaturallySpeaking for the past year or so, and it works well once you get over the initial curve of learning to say "cap" and "comma" in all the right places. I couldn't imagine using it for programming, but for dictating things like emails and natural language (like this comment), I've been pretty happy with it.
Just signed up - they've got loads of premium plan add-ons and "partner offers" to give you more free monthly data.

Looks like a freemium model.

* Edit - Some more ways they make money:

- setting to automatically top your account off if you get below 100 MB left is on by default

- $0.99 maintenance fee if you use less than 5 MB in a month (wow)

Can non-muslims not prepare halal food?
I saw this from Sam Altman a few months back: http://blog.samaltman.com/software-to-avoid-the-software-peo...

To paraphrase "A few years ago, many of the Y Combinator B2B startups wrote tools for the developers in other companies" and how that has changed resulting in "so now the startups are trying to avoid the developers at the other company (so they don't get blocked) and sell to the person who is waiting in the internal development queue."

I was selling enterprise SaaS in 2000 (yep, when we were called "ASP's") and back then we were writing and reading about how one of our greatest strengths was allowing business owners to avoid their own internal IT departments. One theory on the reason why Salesforce.com was/is the most successful SaaS company is because it targeted the VP of Sales (initially) This was the most "rebellious" leadership profile who often didn't connect well with a CIO and basically used their own budget to end around IT and get the tool into the hands of their end users.

I think - based on this coming up to being a documented 15 year + theory - it probably needs some fresher thought around how the role of the IT department will morph vs not exist.
That may be, but I've got tons of hours of enjoyment out of LoL and I kind of like the champ unlocking mechanism just because it gives me something to do/earn, but I'm weird like that.
> "If Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie had done the same nobody would give a damn. Bill Gates could probably easily get away with stuff like this too."

This is where we disagree. The core of the story is someone wealthy doing something against the public good in a particularly flamboyant way.

The backlash would be the same regardless of who they are. It's the sheer flamboyance that's the core of the story. Larry Ellison had similar coverage when it came to being incredibly loud and obnoxious - and he's as close to a traditional industrialist as the software industry gets.

> "but I really don't feel like starting a long historic discussion here.."

Pardon me for saying so, but you've made some big claims and controversial statements, and your response to any refutation has been "well, I don't want to start a discussion here..." - so what do you want to do, besides drop a big, bombastic claim and walk out?

[edit] I'd also like to point out that whenever stories about the shenanigans of Silicon Valley appear, there is frequently the argument made that everyone else is just jealous, or that they are sore losers. This argument has a bad smell to it (in the code smell sense of the word).

I've also felt, recently at least, that this community has a nascent persecution complex, like everyone else is out to get us - usually because they're jealous, or they're luddites, or they're just evil in a laughably generic way. This particular trend I find highly annoying.
> Nuclear waste is stored very, very deep and secure.

Ideally it would be. But in many cases in practice, that isn't the case, because those facilities have either not been built, or not opened. In the U.S., since the long-planned Yucca Mountain facility has never opened, most nuclear waste is stored on-site at the reactor complex, in above-ground facilities. For the first few years it's immersed in cooling pools [1], and then subsequently is parked in metal/concrete cylinders [2]. This is considered interim storage awaiting final burial in geologically stable vaults, but without Yucca Mountain the "interim" storage has become de-facto permanent.

Define children? Because last time I checked, "child" pornography with 15 years old "children" were postulated, and they even made a few 15 years old "children" sex offenders for sending naked pics of themselves.

I did not say that all Muslims always integrate nor did I mean to imply it. You post original post makes broadly general statements about all the Muslims in the world, it says in fact that they "won't integrate". It seems to me that the burden of proof is on you with all these generalities.

Which terrorists was I defending? If I offer a defence of Catholics against accusations of violence does that make me an IRA supporter or defender?

I try to see it as more of a hobby. Some people try to perfect their free throws, wood carving, guitar playing, etc. A lot of the time they're going to "fail", or see flaws in what they've produced. It's just a matter of keeping at it, being good enough until you've succeeded in some way.

The other thing you need to be careful of is getting blind to your small successes. There are probably 10 things a day that I do that people new to programming would be confused by, or wish they could do. They're so commonplace to me that I just do them with no appreciation that I did something someone else would find difficult.

If you use lucidcharts, then, as a customer you have the right to say, "send me lucidcharts" (I don't know if that's necessarily how that particular service works, I've never used it). Now, if lucidcharts is that good for you and your contractor won't use it, then that's an opportunity for someone else to swoop in and offer the service you'd like to pay for.
The same way I explain the $7,500 subsidy for each ANY all electric car sold; as the government trying to promote alternatives to ICE because (in theory) it's good for the planet and economy.
On the other hand, you can't really blame Riot for needing to grab more money than Valve. Valve has deep pockets and is willing to take a small profit if it means they survive in the long run. Also, Valve's brand is strong-enough that they have players beating a path to their door no matter what they publish. Riot has none of these options. Every player they earn on the strength and reputation of the game alone. They have no cash to fall back onto if LoL doesn't make money for them.

If LoL doesn't make money for Riot, the developers don't get to eat. So yeah, I'm not surprised they went with a F2P model with a little bit of pay-to-win in there, and their variation on it (rotating characters and you pay to keep the ones you liked) is a novel and fair approach to it.
You said: "Seriously, the best thing you can do right now is delete your HN account and not come back."

Instead of addressing the substance of my argument, and the book I quoted, you instead launched a personal attack against me. That is a genetic fallacy called "Attacking the person".

The person sticking up for the Muslim Extremists is you. And it really aggravates you when I prove that to be the case. The game we are playing is Islamic Jihad. What did you think of the movie: "The innocence of Muslims"? Were you part of those riots too?
Well, by reasonable context. I'm sure we can all come up with fringe cases where the thing's just a UI disaster. For any reasonably designed bit of software though, it's hard to imagine it being hard to use - especially when you've already used something in the same general class.
Stupid clickbait.

Anyone who thinks that every young person is so technically apt that they won't need an IT department to handle the network, servers, backups, etc. doesn't know very many young people.

Sure, young people are familiar with Gmail, Word, etc. at a higher rate than old people. But a lot of young people still don't know how to configure a router's firewall rules.

Small companies don't necessarily need an IT department, but big companies always will because their IT needs are more complicated. Duh.
Well, Nissan took a ~$15B loan from the DoE to build an electric vehicle battery manufacturing facility in Tenesseee.
A new startup by Julien Smith. I've talked to him about this, it sounds like a necessary idea. Relaxing spaces to rent for work or rest, across North America. From what I've seen so far, his execution is good.

Julien's the co-author of Trust Agents and author of Flinch. Launching a startup was not an obvious move for him as a non-technical solo founder, but he's a very perceptive, creative guy. I think this one's worth watching.

>It's the energy source that has the fewest deaths per MWH produced

Source?

I want to remind that the nuclear material needs to be mined somewhere. I never worked in a Uranium mine but it's probably not the healthiest job in the world. Then the material needs to be transported, transported a long way. During this way it gets enriched, used, cooled down. Maybe even re-enriched, used, some part get stuck in walls, pipes ("contamination") etc. At some point it gets stored, somewhere in the ground. During this long way radiation and material gets emitted. Nuclear dust is cancerogenous for the lungs, radiation in general is suspected of boosting leucemia rates.

But the worst part in my opinion is this: NO insurance company in the world will insure a nuclear power plant.
I would call that my point. The media isn't reporting the news not because the government was hiding the facts, but because the government controls the media.

Well 4 nuclear plants were affected at Fukushima, 3 of which had been operational and melted down, the 4th had used fuel cells right near exploding gantries... and zero deaths, zero illnesses.

This is a stark, stark constrast to Chernobyl (which was a Soviet weapons production design quickly converted for power generation use with very little, if any, regard for passive safety principles) and should if anything reinforce what people were saying about the uniqueness of Chernobyl.

The Fukushima plants were the "dodgy old designs", by the way. Fukushima Dai-Ni's 2 operational reactors were hit by the same tsunami, only a few km down the same shoreline from the afflicted reactors, and both achieved safe shutdown... they were of a slightly less old dodgy design.

The design improvements are not fantasy. They've already happened, have been around for years, but no one builds them but India and China.
It definitely leaves a lot to the imagination, but that being said I'm still backing it.

The story is interesting and seems pretty fleshed out, plus I imagine you can't get much further than the previz stage on a project of this scope when funding out-of-pocket.
