> Most charities do all they can to avoid revealing the percentage of their income that goes to the charity's goals. They are under no legal obligation to do this, and there are any number of ways to make administrative costs look like charitable spending.

Bona fide administrative costs are part of the money that goes to the charity's goals.

> A typical -- typical -- case history is that of Greg Mortenson, of "Three Cups of Tea" fame, who made off with a million dollars of foundation money for his personal expenses, all justified of course as legitimate expenditures related to the foundation

Repeating and italicizing the claim that the case is typical isn't actually justifying the claim; in any case, there's a pretty big difference between the allegations against Mortenson in Three Cups of Deceit (or the findings of the Montana investigation into Mortenson's use of CAI funds) and bona fide administrative expenses.

Abuse of funds (whether administrative or not) is an issue orthogonal to the share of funds used for administrative purposes.

Your argument is similar to the "why are you scared if you've got nothing to hide?" response to the NSA scandal. According to society, we all should be perfect citizens whose outward lives perfectly reflect our inward, private thoughts and actions. But we're not, and evidence to the contrary can be used against us.

But, for the sake of argument, let's say you are perfect. You don't exceed the speed limit, you don't haul drugs. But one of your elected officials really enjoys visiting his secret girlfriend on Sunday evenings. Do you still trust him to vote objectively in every circumstance?

True, I can't see XYZ agency using their records to threaten elected officials, either. But I doubt anyone was worried that promoting an egotistical bureaucrat in the Bureau of Investigation in the early 1900s would ever lead to the reign of J. Edgar Hoover. The whole point is that these things aren't a big deal on their own -- it's the slippery slope concept that should concern you.

A lot of code are very sharable between OS X and iOS apps. Sure the UI layer will be different, but many mid or low level libraries used for both iOS/OS X cross-platform apps are shared between them, and having both platforms supporting 64bit can open up that possibility even more.

20:19 So these young men of the princes of the provinces came out of
the city, and the army which followed them.

20:20 And they slew every one his man: and the Syrians fled; and
Israel pursued them: and Benhadad the king of Syria escaped on an
horse with the horsemen.

20:21 And the king of Israel went out, and smote the horses and
chariots, and slew the Syrians with a great slaughter.

20:22 And the prophet came to the king of Israel, and said unto him,
Go, strengthen thyself, and mark, and see what thou doest: for at the
return of the year the king of Syria will come up against thee.

20:23 And the servants of the king of Syria said unto him, Their gods
are gods of the hills; therefore they were stronger than we; but let
us fight against them in the plain, and surely we shall be stronger
than they.

20:24 And do this thing, Take the kings away, every man out of his
place, and put captains in their rooms: 20:25 And number thee an army,
like the army that thou hast lost, horse for horse, and chariot for
chariot: and we will fight against them in the plain, and surely we
shall be stronger than they. And he hearkened unto their voice, and
did so.

That's a common behavior in Canvas programs where particles are plotted on integer boundaries. The plotting routines have to decide which pixel gets the paint, and the argument is a float with an ambiguous mantissa. Round off to an integer, and you get the next higher or lower location. If the routine were written to add 0.5 to each coordinate, that effect would go away and the particles would (apparently) return to their original locations.

In this case, the model is one of exponential decay, meaning over time the particles move toward a target coordinate at a speed determined by the remaining distance, with this ODE:

f(t) = y(t) - y'(t) * tc == c

Where:

y = a value that changes with respect to time

t = time

c = final position (the value toward which y(t) moves)

tc = decay time constant

f(t) = an unknown function that meets the description provided by the listed terms, but in this case equal to:

f(t) = (1-e^-(t/tc)) * c

More or less.

The result of the uncertain outcomes for the particles is that many outcomes drift toward, but don't quite get to, their originally assigned integer coordinates. Then for plotting they're rounded up or down based on small numerical errors, producing the display you see.

Again, this problem can be solved by adding 0.5 to all plotting coordinates before rounding.
Oh, certainly there is a large aspect of "the problem is simply the examples." I have yet to see a compelling system built in the functional style, is the problem.

It is tempting to feel that there is this holy grail where this becomes a big win. I even can "intuitively" see how this would be true. However, what I also experience is that this 'win' seems countered by the 'loss' in just how much cognitive overhead goes in to building said large system. That is, sure, it can be modified with more confidence, but was it ever fully built? (I think this comes from the caveat shown in upthread paper where, to stay truly transparent the developer winds up having to account for the entire state of the system at some layer.)

Even looking at my own examples where I was somewhat proud of the amount of information that was in the type system, I can not honestly claim that the product was more bug free than loosely typed version, and it certainly wasn't more clearly communicated to my peers. (Including my future self.)

In the end, smaller more directed pieces using whichever styling makes the most sense for that section seems to be the clearest win.

Edit: Apologies for the quick edit, but I am also struck by just how well the "literate" programs I have ever read actually worked at communicating what was going on. Shame that seems to have stalled to death.

This post is getting a lot of flack from people who haven't given it more than a glance.

-------Benefits

1. SEO is not a problem.

Since OJ can be compiled on the server-side, it's comparable to EjS, JADE or other templating languages, which means SEO is not a problem.

2. Current code-size can be ignored in the long run.

This code doesn't have to be sent to the client (since it can run on the server), could possibly be hosted by a CDN and cached across the web, and can probably be tightened up in the future.

3. CSS is still available, but the views know about their css files and are coupled with them

4. True MVC on the front end

OJ gives us the chance to do true MVC in the web frontend, without having a javascript view and an dom view and css styles that are separate, but that work together to make one thing. It seems to me that they're really made for each other - shouldn't they be together at last?

5. Sharing code will be easier

OJ could eventually be supported by a package manager that allows you to include (or install for server-side) js objects for things like youtube videos, but also for tweets etc. Separation of concerns (So your app doesn't just have one huge CSS file, but each view has it's own css, and it's own html & js etc) will also reduce complexity in larger apps.

------Trade offs

1. Yet another framework to learn/use

2. May be slower than what you currently do to render pages

3. If used client side, you may weaken your site's SEO

4. New engineers to your team will likely need to be brought up to speed.

5. (short term) There are likely weird bugs you'll pull your hair out over.
Is the problem that we're simply creating more CO2 than can be manufactured back into O2 by plants? Would the practicality of a "CO2 vent to space" work? We vent the excess but obviously not everything considering we wouldn't want to destroy all plant life on earth (and subsequently our own in the process). The one major downside is if this wasn't tightly controlled and a "leak" happened we could foster the end of life on the planet. It looks like ocean acidification would do that already so if it'd be the lesser of two evils I'd go for the one we could control.

The more obvious choice is to reduce our dependency on fossil fuels. How's that really been going all this time? Yeah that's what I thought. Rock? Meet Hard Place.
The only circumstances where you will burn a significant portion of muscle before fat is if you are eating a high fat diet with less than 30 grams of carbohydrates or protein per day.

If you are fasting or in nutritional ketosis, your brain still needs about 120 grams of glucose (or as low as 20 grams after it adapts to producing and using ketones for fuel). If you aren't getting the glucose it needs or ingesting carbohydrates that can be broken down into glucose, your body will begin gluconeogenesis, a process that turns amino acids (from the breakdown of protein) into glucose. If you are still consuming dietary protein, it will break this down first, but if you are not, it will get these amino acids from your muscles and other "lean" tissues.

Basically, if you are consuming an adequate amount of protein, it's pretty hard to lose muscle mass without losing a significant amount of fat.
"It dwarfs all other problems -- Syria, terrorism, the NSA, class and economic disparity, all of them."

I don't know enough about climate science to be fully informed about impact, but this I know... A true carbon tax would be of such enormous magnitude, that it would compare with issues like class disparity. * If the pessimists are true, the deaths involved from climate change will draw Syria plus 9/11 plus many other wars.

* - On a side note, if done on a revenue neutral basis, it could be used to lower taxes for everyone, and provide relief for people who live a lower-carbon lifestyle.

Ask HN:  Should I exercise my stock options?
Hey HN,

TL;DR: I'm leaving my job at a pre-series A startup. Is it worth exercising my stock options? It would cost $15k for 2% of shares outstanding.

I'm a long-time HN user posting from a throwaway account -- hoping someone here has experience with this.

More info:

I decided to leave my job as an engineer at a startup. My vested shares amount to 2% of total shares outstanding. Once the company's convertible notes convert to equity, I'll be diluted down to 1.5%. They haven't raised a series A, yet.

My stock option contract stipulates that I must exercise within 3 months of leaving, or the options expire. The cost of exercising is about $15k (vested shares * strike price). My life savings is 60k. I'm 24.

What would you do in this situation? What are some things to consider? Are there ways to exercise without paying until the company exits?

What do most people do in this situation? I'd really appreciate any advice.

Thanks guys

> Would the practicality of a "CO2 vent to space" work?

Not really. First you need to capture the CO2, then you need to send it to space. Considering the scales involved we're unable to do either.
Please do not use something like this if you're building your next project. NOTHING is wrong with using mustache or so for templating, but this is just plain wrong.

You will know how much it costs to use something like this if you have a project that you've worked on for weeks or months and need to hand it over to another developer. Or actually any other interaction with a third party like a designer or frontender that's used to just juggling around some tags for preference or layout optimisation.
I moderate my moderation. :)
If the pessimists are correct, death due to climate changes will be on the scale of world wars.
The next two big pushes are performance and Express (server-side) support. From my own testing OJ compiling, rendering, and DOM manipulation are actually pretty fast. As for the perf issues I am seeing (especially on mobile) I think they are at least partially caused by creating 40+ AceEditors with syntax highlighting and dynamically loading iframes like YouTube videos and TwitterButtons.

That said, lay all the perf blame on me! I can promise it will get better -- though in my defense this is the first release after all. Literally no one had heard of OJ until yesterday=).
What can I, as an individual with no money nor power, do to help stop this?

I can reduce my energy use as far as possible. Apart from the online stuff I'm pretty low CO2. I can reduce, reuse, and recycle. (I need to get better at that.)

But what else can I do?
eh... YES

They probably do process each application quickly but they get ~10^3 of them. Even if they spent 10 minutes total on each, that'd still be ~6 days of continuous work. Factor that it is probably 1500 or 2000 and the fact that they can't possibly work 24/7 and you get about the time they take to respond.
There's a javascript wrapper around all html and css functionality so instead of creating a .html file you create a .js file and have javascript functions like h1('HTML Creation') instead of html like <h1>HTML Creation</h1>. Is that right?

Interesting. But why would we use this? Or is it just for fun?

There's a lot of land not being used. And of course we can (and should) do both at the same time, and windfarms as well.
You say that as if no-one clicks on ads. There's vastly overwhelming evidence that ads work, there's no dispute about it whatsoever. You might dislike ads personally but there's billions of statistical data points which demonstrate their validity.

Furthermore not only do other people click on ads, but you've probably done it as well. But in the same way that people who are dieting forget about the condiments they used when they write their food diary, people who are philosophically opposed to ads will forget that they clicked an ad within minutes of having clicked on it.

Go to your web browsing log and search for the ad click trackers for the sites you use (google, facebook, etc.) - you might be surprised at the results.
