Same here. I was really excited when I first found out about it, but then it didn't come out for another few years. I'm sure I'll be ordering a copy soon, though.
'pay us in advance for developing a product that hasn't been market tested or validated'

The closest model I'm familiar with to what they're doing is the FreeBSD Foundation, so this is more classic "pay us for OSS" than anything else. So I don't think this is a startup proposal. Unusual for HN I know, but given the plan I doubt they're tracking pirate metrics or blabbering about pivots.

Which is sort of a pity because actually my problem isn't email (there is plenty of webmail I can deploy privately), my problem is group calendaring with multiple share/sync options (for which only Google Apps meets my requirements).
For native front-ends most of that work has been done for me already though. I can't remember the last time I've had to worry about performance profiling or heap management in a native front-end - and we build iOS, Android and Windows apps that process huge amounts of (medical) data. Hell, I don't even have to make my own animations to have good looking apps because that's all built into the rich native components that I use.

On native platforms - if I stick to standard, well-known, stable components and if I follow good coding practices and recommended techniques - my apps are fast by default. And I'm just gluing things together most of the time. Easy, scrumptious pie! I can save the work of "squeezing every drop of performance out of my code" for back-end processes.

Things just work for the most part - unlike the web where half the sites that try to do something "fancy" like fixed elements just serve to make scrolling slow and clunky - hence the need for this tool.
Regarding Pull Requests, this is quite important if and when you want to change licenses, or dual license.

Make sure you have on file release forms for every copyright holder who submits code that grant you permission to relicense later on. For one line bug fixes it can be a pain, but it's worth it.

One problem with this though is that it places an unfair advantage with the current maintainer. A fork of the project wouldn't inherit the relicensing permissions from all the contributors.

The amount of Go software used at Google is dwarfed by other languages because those languages (C++, Java, and Python) have been in use for 10-15 years.

Go is definitely picking up steam, and there have been a couple of fairly high-profile projects talked about publicly (the dl.google.com rewrite from bradfitz and YouTube's MySQL proxy)
You could be right, but I also wonder if option A, B, or C are great filters for weeding out those that are not ready/determined?
Especially when it's multi-national corporations that use patents in the worst possible way, and use any possible scheme to withhold money from taxation.
FWIW, Haxe is a solid alternative if you're looking into alt-js or cross platform (mobile) development:
http://haxe.org/

It doesn't have the money of Google, but it has been around for 8 years, and is backed by its own non-profit foundation. It just recently hit version 3.0:
http://haxe.org/manual/haxe3/features

It continues to make steps forward with new cross-platform development frameworks like openfl.

Or perhaps the old parent company views pensions as an already sunk cost, and thus irrelevant, and thinks the actual operations of the paper are worth, you guessed it, $70M.
One of the reasons I started lumail (http://lumail.org/) was because none of the existing console clients worked for me. Specifically sup will die importing my 2013-1994 = 19 year mail archive.

Slightly off topic, but lobbying includes companies lobbying against NSA privacy contentions, so lobbying by the $ is not a good measure of wanting a "self licking icecream".
I was installing on a laptop to demo during a conference talk. I also had aspirations of contributing to graphite (something I've so far failed to do.) Having said that, I do know that hosting and maintaining graphite internally is a barrier for some companies. Your product looks like it will fill that need very nicely. Kudos!

You know about compound interest. Time works the same way. You don't have the time you think you do. Every year you screw around will penalize you heavily 10 years from now.

High school matters, to the extent that your performance determines which university you get slotted into. Develop an attitude (as I did) and that guarantees you won't go to MIT. Were I to do it over again, I'd swallow the BS they lavished on us in high school for a shot at Tech. So start working now. All-in. Don't get in the habit of coasting - that's a very hard habit to break.

You have the luxury now of being able to think high risk / high reward. The worst thing you can do is to start a family before you are ready. Security becomes Job One then, which means low risk / low reward.

Surround yourself with the smartest people you can find. Don't be an eagle in a cube farm of turkeys. That's the shortest route to stagnation I can think of (though you'll be well paid).
Also, be careful with your ears!

> Yeah, and that's why I didn't become a teacher. You chose this knowing all the pros and cons.

Exactly. And if we want better teachers, we need to boost the pros or reduce the cons so it's a better option.

Cashing it out in terms of what we've decided they "deserve" may be gratifying, but it's useless. Let's base our policy based on what will actually best achieve our goals.
I didn't suggest the book for PUA. When I was 16, I was a socially degenerate nerd who had no friends and zero romantic prospects. The interactions and steps that people go through when forming relationships was absolutely alien to me.

I suggested the mystery method because it answers each of those questions in extreme detail. It explains what women find attractive in men, it explains the stages of a relationship, and it explains all things you shouldn't do or say when you're courting a woman.

The "no friends" part of my social problem was fixed by getting banned from world of warcraft, which is why I didn't suggest other reading for how to make friends.
Dart is the language and the Dart VM and dart2js are implementations. That's an important distinction. Dart, via dart2js, does run on all modern browsers.
Our teachers are our kids' jailers. Spending more for better jailers would probably have a decent impact on the future.
So, basically you agree with the OP?
Didn't last long. Interesting experiment.
The state should also do some math. What is the cost of having a disabled person, even if slightly ?
Take risks socially (approaching people). Get out from behind the screen as many here have already noted.

Your body is a temple. Try to work up a proper sweat (intense exercise) every day. Only eat food you cook yourself. Try to get proper sleep always.

Try selling something on the side to teach yourself about business (if that's what you're into). I'm only now investigating selling on Ebay and Amazon (weird to say for someone on HN). I'm only doing this now in my mid-20s, it would've been great discovering this in my mid teens. Dealing with Chinese suppliers & customers is a lot more pleasant than sitting in front of a screen 9-5 in a job you dislike. Plus you can be the best paid 16 year old you know if you're successful! Here's an inspirational post: http://www.reddit.com/r/AMA/comments/1ib1uc/i_run_an_ebay_an...

Don't pay too much attention to the news, blogs, and general information chatter that can consume your day. Read timeless books, get out in the air, and spend time with friends.
Just get a really fast SSD.
What happens if there are problems down the road with an implant (or any other procedure) you got in the US? You pay for more procedures, that's what.

The ability to sue for millions of dollars is the one "advantage" of buying your medical care (or airplane tickets) in the US. We each need to decide how important that is to us.
It certainly doesn't look like it would work with my S4 Active, thanks to its buttons across the bottom. Which might seem nitpicky or whiny, but if you're going to put "for every smartphone" right there in the product description...
You are a black box. Your brain and body take in the world as input and produce thoughts, feelings, and actions as output.

Some of the most valuable knowledge you'll ever acquire is knowledge of how that black box works.

Are you feeling distracted studying french? Is it because you hate french or because you skipped breakfast?

Once you're able to link up cause and effect, you can take action to minimize things you want less of, and maximize things your want more of.

How do you know what you want? It takes time, and you have to fumble around. I've found that a lot of people who take a super-narrow path in and after college tend to look up one day and find that they're in a place they never wanted to go.

BTW, I would personally suggest that you ignore anybody here who's giving you answers about investing or going to elite schools, etc. Those are means to an end. And it may not be the end you want.

The only important life goals for you are the ones you come up with. And you get to change your mind. :)

ps. Who am I? I'm in my mid 30's. Co-founder of a successful software business (not a funded startup). And I've fumbled around a lot. The one thing that's saved me time and time again has been a modicum of self-knowledge and a willingness to jump in and learn new things, many times outside my comfort zone.

pps. Don't forget to enjoy your life. Be kind to yourself.

Dart 1.0 will be released pretty soon, as Lars & co, have said. It takes a long time to create a new language and core libraries from scratch.

But I can't believe you complain that it's not released yet, and that it doesn't have much traction in the same post...

I think Dart adoption is going along just fine, considering it's pre-release state for the last two years. If too many people had already starting using it, they might have had unmeetable expectations about it's stability and readiness. Better that there are fewer early adopters who are aware of and willing to take the pain of the evolving platform.
If Chrome gets 90% marketshare, there'll be other problems besides Dart. History also tells us that even if all vendors adhere to standard specs, there will be implementation differences and bugs that still require developers to write browser specific code and fixups.

Again, I'm not disagreeing that there is a danger of fragmentation, but this won't happen because of Dart, but because of other forces. The criticism over the DartVM is being blown way out of proportion.

The best defense against any of this happening is not to protest Dart, but to make sure the browser market is competitive.
Don't use them, there is no such thing. Make your comments first class citizens in the data.
> that also introduces a new Future/Streams composable async model simplifying IO and handling events in js web apps.

Sounds like RxJS to me.
An official blog can be, "This is how it is done, as of the time of posting."

However, then you end up with blog posts like, "here what's new in 3.5", without any documentation for users who never used 3.4 (or 3.3, 3.2...)
How many hours are spent outside of class preparing lessons, grading papers, staff meetings, parent conferences, etc.? This reduces the hourly rate somewhat.

Another good place to start understanding the (dis)incentives in US healthcare pricing is Time magazine's "The Bitter Pill" http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,2136864,00..... Though it's important to note it's not just a US -> abroad market, it's a many-many graph. People travel for cost, procedure availability, doctor specialization, for the experience of travel, etc.

If anyone is interested in talking and passionate about this topic, I'd be happy to treat you to coffee with my co-founder and I in downtown SF. Feel free to email me, my email is in my HN profile.
You badly conflate open source and an open standards process.

Dealbreaker right there.
Sure, the best reference is the paper by Culler et al. from 1992/1993:

A quickie google search suggests that alcohol and klonopin don't mix. Better watch that.

Depression is nasty business. You need to change things up. Be smart and only change one variable at a time: diet, supplements, sleep, exercise, the usual suspects. Measure, repeat, measure again.

Tell your shrink. If you don't have a shrink, get one. If you have one and you don't relate, get another one. There are good shrinks out there.
Certainly not on Hacker News, where people always vote based on how something relates to the discussion and not their own personal biases.
Dart's uptake is slow because it hasn't really been released yet. It's pre-1.0 and has been evolving pretty rapidly until recently. I'm not worried.
I hope you check it out again as we reach 1.0. We're going to be able to give server-side some more attention after 1.0 too.
Some weird stuff in this article.
How can he have a teaching empire if he only makes 4M a year?
Anyway, good for him. Meanwhile there are people putting tons of content on the internet, for free. Youtube channels, Khan Academy. If you really want to learn you only need to put aside some quiet time.
Also, if there is 1 hub to represent everything that's going on (be that protests or online activities),

- there will be reinforcing spill-over effects from every activity to the other ones

- the media can more easily refer the all activities (since they're easily accessible in 1 place)

- the movement will gain more visibility and credibility

- the movement will grow quicker
You'll see more of this. Judging from his wiki entry, John Henry (who names a kid that?) is apolitical, but when the NYTimes, LATimes, etc, finally get completely sold to Carlos Slim or a Saudi Prince or whoever, the editorial direction of the country will get more and more one-sided.

It's amazing any newspaper is still in business, but eventually it will be strictly a subsidized game.

I would hope this is obvious, but "driving in the dark at 50 mph over the speed limit" has a high risk of causing a fatal collision.

Actually yes. You can intercept copy and paste events and do the necessary stuff then, rather than do it beforehand.

Ah, yes, I misunderstood the point you were making, sorry.

I would agree that the compromises they made for their desktop versions are a negative, at least in the way they did them.

They could support both models fairly well (eg. in Microsoft's case with a few tweaks to bring back the proper start-menu and an option to just not see the metro screen for desktop users who really don't want it), but both seem to have adopted the modern "Apple" style of making things as simple as possible with no option for advanced usages, which I think is a mistake lots of companies (including Google) are making these days.

The value to me of old Google products, old Microsoft products, and older Ubuntu (which lives on in other Linux distros) was precisely that they weren't Apple-esque in terms of dictating to me how I'm supposed to use it for the sake of ultra simplicity. Now that they are attempting to be Apple-esque they are losing the hearts and minds of people like me, and not gaining much with the other group (AFAICT), because no matter how bad they try to be Apple, Apple is still a much better Apple than they are.
That does not prevent it from still be hell cool.

EDIT: I see these people as sort of vehicular hackers, like computer hackers do lots of illegal things to learn, or for glory, or because it is cool, but with no real malice, these people do these things likewise.

Of course, does not stop it being dangerous... But for example they choose a holiday weekend to do it, to ensure the risk to strangers was low, as traffic was minimal.
4m and 30 employees is a bigger empire than most teachers can lay claim to...
The amount of class time per week in our county is ~30. So even if they spend 15 hours a week outside of class on those things, that's a 45 hour work week, very consistent with that of other white collar workers making that kind of money.

Teachers get paid extremely well in most larger cities. In Atlanta, Chicago, Philadelphia, Houston, and New York, starting salaries are in the $40-45k/year range with a bachelors. This might seem low to people on this board accustomed to Silicon Valley pay scales, but it's substantially above average for liberal arts majors. When I graduated college in Atlanta in 2007, the going rate for a fresh BA in white collar professional job (say in the accounting department of a company) was $35k. Teachers were starting at $40k+.

Also, the benefits cannot be ignored. Good health insurance and a pension contribution are extravagant benefits for young college graduates in the Millennial generation. They easily add $15-20k/year to total compensation.
That's not noise that's incredibly clear signal! (At least for some, I guess others have different taste).
Trying a new way to save
It's fun to run the counterfactuals, but ultimately, we go to war with the lousy technology stack we have, not the mediocre one we want. I'm just overjoyed that, thanks to Android and iOS, people are writing native applications again.
"In addition, device makers typically require doctors’ groups and hospitals to sign nondisclosure agreements about prices, which means institutions do not know what their competitors are paying. This secrecy erodes bargaining power and has allowed a small industry of profit-taking middlemen to flourish: joint implant purchasing consultants, implant billing companies, joint brokers. There are as many as 13 layers of vendors between the physician and the patient for a hip replacement, according to Kate Willhite, a former executive director of the Manitowoc Surgery Center in Wisconsin."

A simple legal remedy here would be to invalidate this sort of NDA agreement. The government is already involved as a customer in the health care market, and having the courts simply no longer recognize contracts that prohibit disclosure of prices would bring some immediate transparency to many involved.

The law could also go a step further and actually set up/order public listings of prices (this is already done in a lot of industries where vendors try to avoid competing on price).
Children rarely endanger innocent lives, so why are you calling it childish?
Alienware laptops look normal if you turn the lighting off, or switch the color to white. They also completely destroy Sager as far as build quality goes.

Sager laptops are rebranded Clevos. Clevos give you decent components for a good price, but they have horrible keyboards (almost to the point of defectiveness) and generally mediocre build quality.
Ah, I understand then. I just do not understand the people buying a new phone every time there is a new model.

I can understand wanting the software upgrade, but in terms of hardware I do not think it's worth upgrading all the time.
Although to be fair, their list does lack some European countries too.

That's exactly what I meant. Usually I am quite forgiving about it. Shipping internationally is a big issue, logistically speaking, legally speaking and otherwise. This list looked really strange for me. I should have been more specific.
If you work somewhere that's anything like places I've ever worked, then I think knowing your salary might have a bigger impact on some of your colleagues than you might think, eventually causing some blowback to come your way. Just my observation from past experience.
