I completely agree with you. but while I do find it strange that people being bullied on it don't just delete their accounts the people involved are usually young teenagers not thinking as rationally. Cyber bullying seems to becoming more of a problem. Logically it seems that it's easier to stop than regular bullying (if you're being attacked online delete the account/stop using the service/report the users) but the reality for younger people is clearly more complex.
Things to avoid when updating your app for iOS 7
If you quit to work on your own stuff (and have a nest egg to fall back on), have at it.

If you plan on working for someone else, that employment gap would be a red flag.
Ah I see you're saying that keeping secrets may motivate clients to pick someone other than you, and potentially increase competitiveness if the market presence of 'secret keepers' is minimal.

I think it's pretty tricky to consider that a real 'effect', as if the alternative companies kept secrets then it would be just as bad.
<Sigh> Pathetic niggers.

ah, that's a shame. well if you're ever up to give it another go i'd recommend reaching out to r/windowsphone again, there are a lot of devs there that i'm sure would be willing to lend some support.
There must be some kind of study about businesses that are loyal to employees and loud about that loyalty. How does that affect their bottom line?

Do customers/clients choose to do business with an ethical company over an unethical one? If not, maybe the bigger problem is that the employees of the world choose to do business with companies that are not good to employees.

If ethical behavior was an important factor in customer's choices I'm sure we'd see less unethical behavior by businesses. However, Walmart, Goldman Sachs, McDonalds, etc all continue to thrive after their unethical behavior is made very public.
I don't know if they meant GB or Gb, but for the record, I didn't see any difference in disk performance between native and containerized apps. In that case, that was pulling ~900 MB/s seq reads from a RAID10 disk array of 8 old 7k HDD. This is not surprising, as the code path for block I/O is exactly the same for native and containerized processes.
Strains are brands themselves, hence why they have catchy names. I think we'll see differentiation here too.
I wonder: what's the relationship between marijuana 'strength' (measured in THC, I guess) and medical effectiveness?

It seems to me the studies in the posted article are from a time when marijuana was dramatically 'weaker' than what you get today.
>> "They could respond that it's another incentive to make developer update their apps..."

But it's a beta, we can't update our apps. Apple won't accept iOS 7 apps until the GM is announced usually a week or two before the official launch.
Even with 9/11, there was massive public opposition to the invasion. However, 9/11 had caused a massive shift overall, resulting in much greater popular support for the government in general and the administration in particular, and it caused the Democrats to abdicate their role as the "loyal opposition" and instead become rubber stamps. Additionally, 9/11 was used to drum up a great deal of additional support for the invasion by painting it as part of the war on terror. I don't believe it was ever outright stated, but it was heavily implied that Iraq was partially responsible for 9/11, and that the invasion would prevent future attacks.

In a hypothetical world without 9/11, the Bush administration would still want to invade Iraq, no doubt. It's been shown that they started the project of figuring out how to do it well before. But I don't think they'd be able to pull it off. Public opposition would have been much greater, Congressional opposition would have actually happened, and I don't think they would have been able to steamroll over that, or even anywhere close.

Bush more or less came into office as a lame duck. He was the first president in living memory to have won the election while losing the popular vote. He was often thought of as a buffoon, and even his supporters, in my experience, supported him more out of team spirit than because they actually thought he was some brilliant leader. I believe that, in this environment, the default position on a proposed invasion of Iraq would have been a solid "no, why would you even want to do that?"

But mix in 9/11 and the following year and a half of terrorist-related paranoia and fighting, and a lot of people changed their minds to "yes, we must support our leaders in their glorious fight against the al Qaeda menace."
Okay I will, if conversation permits. What are the chances? Probably low.

I'm thinking the premise is that tmobile and verizon care about your call and the conclusion is that you should call them. That conclusion doesn't follow the premise because you may not care that they care, but I presupposed you did because you were talking about trusting groups. When a tmobile support person thanks me for my call I do not trust that they are truly thankful.
I'd throw in a LOT of anecdata for this one.
For agitating full blown psychosis, few things are better than the array of legal highs. Where MJ (alone) has negatively effected the people I've known, it's always been down to some anxiety disorder.

If I were to start armchair theorising, I'd say it is because of cannabis' effect on the "linguistic center" of the brain. Couple this with nicotine - similar effect to cocaine in that it reduces the activity of neurotransmitter depletion enzymes - and you have serious potential for wild ideas that could interact with underlying issues to create disturbing problems. From the reclusive shut in, to the raging paranoiac, I've seen it all and I've often thought that the prevailing notion that the drug is benign is downright wrong. It is a drug. A very powerful drug. One to be respected and used wisely, and left the hell alone if it doesn't 'work' for you. But I agree wholeheartedly that it should not be criminalised.
Heh, well I need to finish this draft and then have a professional editor go through it - and then of course I need to have a publisher house accept the manuscript. But thankfully I know a good amount of people from school who do publishing work in NYC so we'll see how that goes. If not, I'd be more than happen to send a manuscript over to you once I'm done!
There are (arguably) different forms of addiction: Physical and psychological. Physical addiction is the more dangerous of the two, as it can induce truly horrifying symptoms during withdrawals. (Delirium tremens from alcohol withdrawals, for example.)

Marijuana--and indeed almost anything--can be psychologically addictive. As our brains operate chemically, it's a bit misleading to say that psychological addictions have no physical component. Dopamine, a neurotransmitter, is a key player in many (all?) psychological addictions. But to further complicate matters, dopamine is also heavily involved in the withdrawal process of some harder drugs, such as methamphetamine.

Because the line between physical and psychological addictions is so fuzzy, some professionals eschew the distinction. Still, it seems productive to discuss the nature and severity of withdrawal symptoms for each drug, even if we don't split the drugs into two camps. From that perspective, marijuana addiction is less severe than addiction to heroin, alcohol, and so on.
Fair enough. I wonder if the active component that dulls the pain also the one that causes the wooziness. Is it possible to have one without the other? I suppose smoking the raw leaf is a pretty blunt delivery mechanism vs putting the active compounds in a patch or a pill.
Thanks so much. I've downloaded a few HN apps and they have not been working very well. This shall replace them.

This sounds like cash. What's the problem?

The status quo is annoyed because Cash 2.0 is better than the swill they're handing out at banks.
That's not a great position to be in. The company you work for can let you go at any moment whether or not you have something lined up, and if that's not something you can tolerate then you might want to start working on it (either by increasing your saving or by reducing the out of time it would take you to find another job).
The only red flag is that he has waited around when he lost creativity, and even that is not red - at least he had the courage to quit.

It is a job of the employee to be creative (talking about design, of course). But it is the job of employer and investors to make an environment that challenges the employer. If they are unable to do that then any really creative employer will (or at least should) leave.

@OP: good luck!!! I wish you well on your path, wherever it takes you.
It would be one thing if the iOS 7 reviews only showed up for other developers running the beta, but these reviews only (in the best case scenario) dilute and obscure actual, legitimate reviews.

In the former case, the reviews might provide a benefit. Now, however, they hurt sales to customers who haven't updated and won't until after Apple's deadline for compatability (that is, release day).

EDIT: Not to mention that the new APIs are still changing, so even if a fix was allowable, it might just end up breaking again.
Curiosity and self
"but as a free OS" - from customer's viewpoint it's not anymore free than iOS on Apple devices. You pay for a product and it comes with an OS - you are not getting an invoice for both. And therefore - why would a customer treat them differently?
Following your recommendation, I did the same, and I really enjoy it. The interface addresses many (all?) of my typical annoyances with the otherwise great news:yc app.

What are extremely innovative fashion marketplaces?
Hello guys,

We are building up a fashion marketplace, and are looking for ideas be different to other marketplaces. Our idea is to have a lot of local shops on our marketplace which often do not have access to the internet. Therefore we want to be the place where you can buy stylish clothes from your town or country. However, we feel that we need an innovative element in this idea. Something that let our customer stay. Where he feels, that this is his community. However, no such feature comes to our mind? Do you know some extremely innvative cool marketplaces?

We appreciate your answer!!!
Isn't flippa just about the website name.

I don't necessarily disagree with your post but you should be careful with generalizations that aren't backed up with evidence. "The US has the most pot smokers/capita by a long shot" sounds a lot like some assumption you just made up based on your own personal experience. A study like marijuana users per capita is inherently difficult because people don't like admitting that they partake in illegal activity. The only statistic to go on for that study is how many people were arrested for marijuana crimes, which only shows how many people were caught breaking a law, not how many people use.

Also I think your marijuana/drug law knowledge is a little behind. There are a number of countries in Europe and elsewhere who are changing to more relaxed drug policies similar to the progress in the US (including Portugal who effectively decriminalized all drugs in 2001).
When Steve wrote this article, his point was Javascript or anything that creates Javascript. Or actually, we don't even really care about Javascript, just the portability and qualities we get from it and its derivatives or offshoots.

1 Week Vacation. What should I do? I will be alone without plans.
I have a week off with nothing planned (no travel or anything planned). I'll be by myself as I recently separated from my SO. What would you do with a week of free time alone? I've never traveled or actually never done much alone. I'm definitely not used to doing things by myself and have quite a bit of social anxiety... I'm from Pennsylvania and there doesn't seem to be much interesting local places to visit. So I mostly planned to learn as much as I can about a couple of things, most notably C#, ASP.NET, and a bit of Android development. What would you do with a week of free time?
Can you pull up any sources for that?

What an insightful idea - HELP people instead of just locking them up in timeout only to release them back into the public with the same (or worse) problems that they started with.

Okay, they'll submit a new version every week or so after Apple releases a new beta and hope that it gets through the approval process before the next beta is released.

It'll do NOTHING for crashing bugs in iOS that just happen to manifest in programs. There was a volume-up crash in Spotify that (as I understand) was a bug in iOS, not Spotify.

Yes Mannings document release was in no way at all comparable to Ellsberg. If Manning had released specific note: specific documents relating to crimes this would be a totally different story. IE: Just leaking the collateral murder video, or other specific crimes, and going through a reporter who properly vets the content is totally different that a site wide document dump. Just because you don't like one thing the government is doing does not mean you can release everything the government is doing.

It is illegal to disseminate, store, transmit, etc, classified material if you aren't allowed to do so. That is the crime, and it also against the AUP and is laid out right near the beginning of the document here: http://aws.amazon.com/aup/
"Just quit" doesn't always work out so well: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5778653

If I've learned anything about working, it's that you never quit without another job lined up. Employment seems to be a prerequisite for finding employment.
You're allowed make a fix for iOS 7 and label it as such in the release notes, provided that it's done using the 6.x SDK.
> $600-800 is a lot of money for most people, and the constant fluctuation and uncertainty about pricing and the fundraising effort is definitely hurting their cause, I believe.

On the other hand, they've always refunded any extra money that people have paid. Ultimately, if the price subsequently goes up, you have a good deal, if the price subsequently goes down, you get the extra money back. The re-adjustment does no harm to the consumer.

I could argue this either way but I think in the end there is little creative way to explain why you left that either doesn't make you sound hard to please, or as if you knew you were going to get axed in the near future, or you were asked to resign.

(I'm trying real hard to find a spin but can't..)

Otoh, I sold a business and everyone criticized me that I had nothing else lined up to do but I realized that I wouldn't be able to line something up to do while involved day to day in legacy enterprise. (Of course that was not the same as I wasn't looking for employment.)

Sorry, but this is FUD:

> IF you have root on the container, you have root on the host.

This is only true on badly configured systems. If you run some kind of public shared hosting (like Heroku, dotCloud, etc.) you probably slap some extra security on top of it. For instance, dotCloud uses GRSEC, limits root access, and uses kernel capabilities.

It won't take years to get LXC in production for shared hosting: it has been in production for shared hosting for years -- but by people who (more or less) knew what they were doing.

Agreed, "out-of-the-box LXC" is probably not that secure; which is probably why many people won't deploy it. And I can't blame them. Any technology generally starts being usable (or usable safely) only for expert users, then progressively gets more industrialized and ready to use for a broader audience. It doesn't mean that the technology is not mature.

Also, the user separation that you mention has been implemented in the Linux kernel for a while[1]; it's called "user namespace", and even if the default LXC userland tools do not make use of it at this point, it's here.

I will add it.
I read his book (http://www.amazon.com/Healing-Back-Pain-Mind-Body-Connection...) expecting to have a similar reaction. While he doesn't make the strongest scientific case, you are not doing his proposition justice. It's more about people who injure themselves maintaining unconscious tension in areas which leads to stiffness and pain well after the physiological healing has finished, because they fear re-injury.

I found some of his advice helpful insofar as it suggests that mindfulness meditation can help ease tension-induced back pain (which I have found to be true for me) and that there is a mental component in overcoming the fear of re-injury and allowing yourself to resume your full range of motion without subconsciously tensing up.

As someone who struggles with anxiety from time to time, I can even believe his statement that he's referred some patients to therapy before attempting to treat their back pain.
Upgrading memory on dedicated servers is and always has been crazy expensive. It's absurdly expensive - we had a 4gb Dell server at <big company /> and, if I wanted to double that to 8GB, it was going to be another $50 per month for two years. I could've bought the memory outright for $120. It's around that time that you need to re-evaluate which server you have and whether it's time to change servers completely.
That screws over developers who are aiming for iOS 6 as the target for the new release.

What if there's a major bug in a program? Are they not supposed to release a bugfix update just because iOS is currently in a beta program?! THAT would unfairly cause a lot of bad reviews for a program.
Leaving the religion aside, I think sending any young person from Country A to Country B during their formative years can only be a good thing, I'd have thought.
Invest a couple hours in reading a few chapters of the book and find out for yourself. I can't possibly summarize it all here without skipping important steps.

All your objections are addressed very well in the book. It's not like he hasn't thought about those things and how it sounds at first. He came to his conclusions empirically by treating his patients, not by dreaming up some theory out of the ether.

I'll just re-iterate my recommendation for the book. It doesn't cost much and you can always get it from the library if you really don't want to spend the money.
I do doubt we will reach the point of 60s and early 70s sitcoms where cigarettes were common.

What is to prevent there use in delivering substances other than nicotine? Combined with the first question is what worries me.

Hmm, it seems I was mistaken. We do let osteopaths prescribe medicine though, and that's almost as dumb. The rest of my point still stands.

I have to take issue again with what you have said.

You seem to be equating osteopathy (a completely accepted medical science) to homeopathy (a complete quackery). To quote Wikipedia:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_MD_and_DO_in_the_...

Other than teaching manual medicine, the medical training for an M.D. and D.O. is virtually indistinguishable.

To quote the American Medical Association:

http://www.ama-assn.org//ama/pub/education-careers/becoming-...

Q: What is the difference between an MD and a DO?

A: A DO (Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine) is a physician just as an MD is a physician.
