Here's one: Google Shopping search or whatever they call it this month. They switched to a all paid version, so only stores that pay Google get featured and the price they pay to Google is what decides their placement--regardless of what Google says. If a store that has the best price does not pay Google or does not pay Google enough will not be seen by users.
Nice.

Myself and a couple other guys did the due-dillegence for a proposed documentary about Stone Age to building a functional electric calculator.

Glass and metal working are key.
But planes and pilots can take short cuts over mountains and terrain that railroads have to go around. Navigating these shorter routes might have been harder but would definitely be worth it in fuel and time savings
Hotels also tend to have extremely long hallways, lots of relatively small floors, and few rooms larger than a bedroom.
Agree! Congrats to Bryan, Bill, and the whole Braintree team. They've built a great company and operate with integrity.
I love angular.. I use it more and more every week.

Ironically, angular speeds up lots of things, but also makes me unproductive in others. Yeah, the end resulting code is usually shorter and cleaner. But I waste so much time with hard-to-understand errors that it's often not time wisely invested so far.

Still, I use it and as I become more proficient with it I expect these random hard to find errors to slowly disappear. (Hey, if one time in my life I was good enough to parse C++ template error messages, I can do it for angular ;-)
Suddenly, I'm very glad that I got into the eye doctor as early as I did; my right eye is dramatically worse than my left, but I guess that I got glasses early enough to prevent something like this from happening.

I will tell you are right once there are no longer 10 results on the serp page. Google wants you to use their products, if the search results they give you are bad then less people will use their search engine. It's that simple.

At any given point there are 10 sites that are listed in the search results and millions of others that need to advertise to get to the first page. Those millions will always think that Google is out to get them and that some conspiracy is involved.
I'm aware of WorkSafe and I know several people that work there. The form you submitted applies to occupational hearing loss, the kind where you work in a loud workshop whose environment noise is in excess of a specific dB level, not the kind self-imposed by listening to music 8 hours a day.
I can see it applied in the right place.

Side rant: for what it's worth, I'm more of an NYTimes person when it comes to where my premium news app subscription dollars go. However, I'm planning to give WSJ a try, not because I like their style or ideology better, but simply because the NYT app developers have some sort of kamikaze methodology going on, in which they are hell-bent on destroying the value of their IP through poor interface design.

It's amazing (and more than a little silly) to think that the success of a newspaper -- an exercise in pure content if there ever was one -- might have anything to do with the design of its iPad app. But that's what the WSJ's competitors seem to be trying to prove. Some of WSJ's recent success might just be due to screwing up less than everyone else, because I've heard only good things about their UX. The medium may not be the message, but the latter can't get by without the former. The NYT and some other prominent papers simply don't get that, even at this late date.

The key to note about Verisign purchase is that of the appx. 1/2 of $145B/year volume that paypal processes is through the verisign gateway which is not paypal branded. Verisign payments are about half of total so it was a good acquisition
AngularJS is more powerful than any other Javascript framework. That's reason enough to use it, unless the application you need to write requires more than Angular offers.

I would hate having only a laptop as my development workstation, or having to take my laptop/keyboard/mouse around to different Thunderbolt displays throughout the office. My work setup is a Macbook Pro, but I very rarely unplug it from the Thunderbolt display (and thus keyboard, mouse, etc.) on my desk.
OpenCV plus a ton of training data should do the trick.
Well as I understood it isn't the photons that interacts with the other photons, it's the way the cold molecules interact as the light passes through it that changes the light course in a way that, if we would look only at how photon is traveling in the atoms, looks like it is interacting with the other photon. I may have misunderstood it, but if it works that way then any structures would disappear almost instantaneously.
Nitrous causes brain damage in medical staff. It damages cobalamin (vitamin B12), which is no big deal for a one-off exposure but for people to work with it every day causes problems. See:

But I'll tell that to my audiologist the next time I see him. I guess he's been reading the wrong research all these years.

There is a balance to be struck with everything and the message I'm making is that headphone usage should be done in moderation. Wearing headphones and listening to music without breaks is going to damage your hearing no matter what. Hell, even wearing ear plugs in prolonged use can backup earwax enough to potentially cause impaction and bacterial infection.
I have noticed the same and I am having more and more difficulty to find exactly what I want in the first result page. The disappearance of the minus and plus operators is probably the major reason for me not getting the results that I want.

Two iPhones Diverged…
It was relatively common in the CAVE to have someone see in stereo for the first time. The shutter glasses have LCDs that are synchronized to flip black and then clear, alternating eyes. The projectors are synchronized to this flip so they show the correct projection for the correct eye. This technique sometimes defeats eye dominance problems that impair stereoscopic vision. Because stereoscopic vision accounts for only about 30% of our ability to judge distance, behind occlusion and motion parallax, it was amusing but not life changing.

$6.25 for a 3-cu ft. box (presumably something close to 18" per side) sounds like a really terrible deal.

Put it this way: as long as you let me look inside first to make sure you aren't storing anything that will get me arrested or burn my house down, you're welcome to store four 18" cubes in my garage for $25/month.
I have an idea for a sports website that caters to casual sports fans discussing sporting events. During football season, this could be fans discussing big games or standout performances from players etc. I think there really isn't a central place for avid sports fans to discuss events. Most fans go to espn, yahoo sports for articles, scores etc but not to give their own feedback on the events.

But really I am looking for a way to expand my skills beyond what I learn at the workplace. If another developer has an idea they want to put into fusion and work with someone else, I am open to other ideas as well.

I'm not saying that those are just situations, but in all the examples you listed, the plaintiff didn't have a strong case anyway, so filtering them out at the claims stage wouldn't change anything.
Brilliant concept, as I've been struggling with this exact problem for a while. A few comments:

Details on how you decide a fund rating would be nice.

The "Forecasts that drive our models" doesn't tell me what's really going on. First item: "US Small Cap vs Large". So you're biased toward small cap? That's the implication, but it's not explicit. I'd like to read why. Also, two of the three listed items talk about international (without any explanation), yet my specific plan recommendation has just a sliver of international exposure despite several options in that regard.

Usability: after finding my company's plan and creating an account, if I click on "401k guidance" in the top nav, I don't expect it to show the search field to find other company plans. Rather, I expect it to show me my plan(s). (I see it's under My Stuff, but that's less obvious.)

Very good start!

Sorry about my imprecise wording. I wasn't intending to criticize your study, which did acknowledge potential misclassifications (and was very interesting and deserves attention on its own merits).

I'm criticizing MW's interpretation, which assumed that your proxy was very accurate in terms of providing the proportion of fake reviews, but went on to imply that your proxy was highly inaccurate by talking about fake but visible reviews.

My apologies if it seems like I conflated the my hearing loss by infection with headphone usage. That wasn't my intent...merely to show that the requirement to wear headphones in an open plan office could have potential negative effects down the road for people.

and see if that knocks out any ideas. There are several possible ways, but with CRMs, it is difficult in my opinion because the ones willing to pay good money for a CRM are the ones already looking at Salesforce CRM, and the other giants.

Sorry for the offtopic post: just noticed now that three months ago, you mentioned I misrepresented your words. I deeply apologize; that's not at all what I meant. I had found your Ricon talk refreshingly honest and quoted it admiringly to people I know. (I had zero issue with anything you said; but rather with certain institutions.)

I'm sorry for any errors/misrepresentations I made about your words, and will be more careful in the future. (Unfortunately, I can no longer edit, delete nor respond to that post.)

Please don't compare it to Express. Express is a beautifully simple, and clean framework that strives to always have the least magic possible. You can see that goal reflected in the simplicity of its documentation as well. You can build on top of it with any other node modules you want exactly because it doesn't make strict assumptions about your code. If you were to compare Express to any front-end framework it would be Backbone.

Angular is not simple in any since of the word. (Especially if we're talking about its documentation.) And it's components are only reusable inside the Angular bubble.

I know; that's why I asked. The article didn't make it clear whether he opposed it already in the DOS era (he mentions that it was IBM who originally came up with the combination) or only its more recent incarnations.
Can you articulate exactly why you wouldn't value that review? I would only consider a review "fake" and discount it if I thought the reviewer hadn't actually experienced the item being reviewed, or was externally incentivized (e.g. paid) to compose the review. Merely discounting a review for being "biased" doesn't seem wise to me. Presumably, the childhood friend of Obama actually did enjoy the book, and the friend of the restaurant owner probably does enjoy the restaurant, even if those preferences are influenced by their relationship with the item owner/producer.
Careful, that's a pretty easy (read: tautological) way to justify all magic.
i think it's unequivocally a good thing. Google has a product that works, they aren't trying to change the functionality. People's habits online and the type and volume of data that google indexes has changed, and google needs to update their algorithms so that the product functions the same despite the new inputs the algorithm is receiving.

Indeed. Although the use of confluent data structures where possible combined with immutable data stores combined and 'live' functional reactive programming across device boundaries -would- drastically simplify cases like these.

I fail to see the use. This has nothing to do with cloud. Cloud is not "store your stuff elsewhere", cloud is "access your stuff from anywhere".
Yelp exists basically because it shows up in Google search results.

Google should be promoting sites that provide value to their users.

Considering the quality of Yelp, I really don't think they should be showing up in the search results.

However, it would take a huge culture change at Google for Yelp to stop showing up in search results, IMO. Even if the quality of their reviews continues to degrade.
Lol and what about Amazon?!

People do win those cases. Those smoking gun emails and internal tests do exist, and plaintiffs get them in discovery. BP didn't agree to pay out twenty billion to shield itself from litigation in the deepwater horizon disaster because they thought nobody would ever win those cases.

But if you filter those suits out at the pleading stage, those plaintiffs never get discovery, which takes their odds from low to nil.
Ask HN: Anyone in NYC need an intern/temp for about a month?
Hi all,
I'm a self-taught programmer (Ruby/Python) at the moment but will be going to a dev-bootcamp October 21 to really get into web development. Meanwhile I have already moved up to NYC and have pretty much nothing to do but build toy apps until then. If anyone could use someone for about a month to do documentation or write tests for them I'd be happy to do it. I know that under a month is a really short time in terms of working but it's a long time in terms of tooling around by oneself. I'm really just looking for something that can be productive and interesting and expose me to what a dev shop is like. I won't fail fizzbuzz or anything and I learn pretty fast.

Edit: I can also speak Russian and do some other cool stuff too.
For those of you in the Bay Area who want to try this out, Boxbee (https://boxbee.com/) is a similar service that operates in SF. Self-storage is a massive industry ($22B) and if you dig into the numbers they're pretty wild. Best of luck to them!

But for the other cases, like looking up specific serial numbers or whatever, it's a mess.

It is a boatload of extra typing, but the "allintext:" operator is your friend for those kinds of searches. I wish there was a URL modifier that could force google to assume allintext: on the search - that way I could have two different google search engines in firefox, one for literal and one for more "semiotic" searches. Maybe there is and I just don't know it?

I've been in a similar situation. My advice is to work in parallel. Maintain a steady income with minimal time investment and leave enough time on the side to work on your Startup. The key of course is having enough time on the side to be effective with the Startup. For many people, this is why they prefer Freelance/Consulting. Much easier to schedule and make your own schedule. I found Freelancing/Consulting to be too inconsistent for me personally, so I found an 'Industry Job' that only takes up 3-4 days a Week (alternating). This provides steady income, and leaves me 3-4 days a week to work on my Startup. Once the Startup shows enough traction to generate funding, then I will move to the Startup full time.

On my first Startup I made the mistake of going full time with no steady income. In hindsight, I should have maintained a lower steady income instead of having no steady income. With no income, I effectively put a limitation on my ability to work the Startup full time. Unless the Startup gains traction, you eventually run out of money and end up back at square one (or square zero depending on the situation).

Some people may be in really good positions that afford them the opportunity to work on their Startup full time and not have to worry about income. That's great for them, but for everyone else, it's 90 hour work weeks.
