If he was going to invoke a biblical narrative where an infinite number of immortal humans, having evolved past the need for their material bodies, merge into a single, ultra-creative consciousness, he could have at least tipped his cap to the duality of the nature of man and had a large number of those minds (1/3 for maximum compatibility with the biblical narrative) reject cohesion with the singular consciousness and descend into the chaos to fuel its contrarian existence to the ultimate plan of the universe.

I've been looking into using Redis as a primary data store since I read this article: http://blog.togo.io/redisphere/how-youporn-uses-redis-sfw-ed...

It's good to see another example running in production.
The problem with pensions is that they need a pyramid age distributions. That's to say lots of young people to pay the taxes to fund the top of the pyramid. That scheme is broken in the west so the whole system will creak on until the younger generations cuts the funds.

The excessive entitlements granted over the last 2 generations is unsustainable. In Spain many baby-boomers have 2X-3X the pension income of a full-time employee. How is that sustainable ??
I think with this idea you end up back at the note concept; what you are proposing sounds more like a loan / debt to me (if I understand you correctly?). The purpose of the safe, anyway, is to turn investors into stockholders at some point.
See, that’s what FOSS zealots keep telling me, but I don’t buy it. The day Apple jails the Mac is the day they turn OS X into OS Xcode, because that’s the only professional software people will use on it anymore.

Adobe, Autodesk, Microsoft, and other enterprise companies will never agree to a 30% Apple cut for their Mac software, and Apple will never allow their kludgily-accreted codebases onto the App Store. Apple’s executive team may have the balls to cut all these companies out of the platform, but they’re not stupid.

Having been on a bit of a Burke kick for the past few months (re-watching Connections, hitting The Day the Universe Changed (excellent) and Connections2 (a bit too commercial and rushed) for the first time, I agree that some of his connections ... are a bit tenuous. But he's making a point (forget now if this was in Connections or TDTUC) that progress isn't linear and doesn't happen within given categories. Things draw from all over the place, some people make it huge, many don't (the number of people in Burke's stories who either toil on in obscurity or die penniless is ... sobering).

I'd say that while he occasionally does reach a bit far, most of his junctures are at least defensible.

C2 is where this starts to run a bit thin. The episodes are 22 minutes long, rather than 54, much of the material is covered in his earlier programs (and feels a bit like a go-over / phoning-it-in), and it feels a bit more commercial overall (not nearly as bad as the crap that shows up on most modern TV, but decidedly moreso than the first series and TDTUC). I'll see how C3 turned out, at least it returns to the 52 minute format.

As for Curtis: I found his opening a bit weak and vague, but it built a bit like a Neal Stephenson novel: there's foundation being laid and an atmosphere being created which pulls together if you stick with it. No, not a fast read, but a damned good one.

Whoever could imagine a world power trying to engage in empire-building, in 2013? Governments just aren't scary, any longer, in that fundamental sense. And so their dual, revolutions, are also becoming increasingly rare.

How do you intend to "prove" in a court of law, on a murder charge (which of course has a high degree of proof required), that a child in a room with 30 kids, in a school with say 600, that traveled on a bus with 60+ other kids, only had contact with exactly 1 kid?

Given that you cannot necessarily determine the exact day of exposure in many cases, and that the kid who gets sick could have gone to e.g. McDonald's (exposure to another 100-200 visitors during busy times) or the mall (how many 1000s)... what sane person could be convinced?

There is a strong sense of entitlement present in American culture which leads to unrealistic expectations when living abroad. This manifests as the so-called 'ugly American'. China is a place where 'zero-tolerance' is literally a foreign concept, and anything is possible with persistence (and good connections). Which also implies the downside -- nothing is permanent or guaranteed, either.

> The problem with pensions is that they need a pyramid age distributions

No, they don't, necessarily. There is a balance to be struck with regard to magnitude and length of pension payments.

2-3x the pension income of a full-timer seems excessive at a glance. That doesn't disprove the existence of a reasonable pension scheme.
Defense of the Ancients, like Tides of Blood, Eve of the Apocalypse, and Advent of the Zenith, was an AoS-style map. If you say AoS, though, few people will know what you mean.

No worries jrockway. It's in the headline. I'm just clarifying how we see ourselves.
While this is a great concept, I am not so sure if this will help freelancers in the long run.

As this service becomes more popular, freelancing subscribers will be hurt from the success. More subscribing freelancers? More competition for leads, and once again the same problem of driving down the wage.

As the website states, the pool of freelancing opportunities are pretty limited. It'll more or less stay around the same. So I feel that this service will have same problem like craigslist, odesk etc, but even worse while paying $40/month or $480/year.
there's software (gumroad and campaign monitor), just not custom code ;)
> This could be considered wasteful.

It's true that there is an extra compare. I think it's a small cost for maintainable code.

> Then they need to read what the function is doing and understand it before they mess with the code, just like in any other situation.

Sounds great, however, the time they spent figuring out your haphazard, repetitive and confusing free() statements could be better spent somewhere else. When I said that my way is more "composeable" I meant that adding, removing, or re-ordering operations is a cheaper operation for the programmer. Follow this style and you'll spend less time trying to read and figure out code because it will fit the existing convention and will be bleedingly obvious where the buffers are released.

I may have been a bit hyperbolic with calling this "correct" or "supposed" however I didn't make up these conventions, I advocate them because I have seen them work really well and I have seen yours create mounds of inflexible spaghetti.

"You Can Have a Good Idea That Everyone Thinks is Dumb"
Take the corporate job.

You have two people that depend on you to provide for them for both income and insurance (assuming you are in the USA). In a year or two your wife could return to the workforce, then go for whatever startup is in fashion at the time. Being as tech startups are, it has a >50% chance of failure anyway. It would also be possible to start your own side project while working the corporate job.
That's a bit condescending. Terrorism doesn't have an accepted definition, and that definitely isn't my definition of terrorism, nor many others. Perhaps people living in America are more inclined to your definition.

I believe that terrorism is defined by the desire to cause mass fear in the general populace by intentionally targeting innocent people, to send across some political message in whichever guise. 9/11 was a terrorist attack.

The Spear of the Nation targeted infrastructure of the Apartheid regime, and the policies of equality upheld by the ANC and Nelson Mandela were widely supported by both white and non-white people in South Africa. I do not think these actions were aimed at provoking mass fear or lobbying an ideal not commonly accepted in South Africa.

This period is often referred to as a revolution, and successful revolutionaries are not historically known as 'terrorists'. In the Anglo-Boer war a similar tactic was employed by the Boers to great effect, but I have never heard of anyone referring to their actions during this war as acts of terrorism. They fought against an act of war initiated by the British, the same way that the ANC fought against acts of violence by the ruling regime, except the ANC were severely under resourced.

Again, the spear of the nation may have done this. This doesn't make Nelson Mandela a terrorist. If he armed a bomb, killed someone, held someone hostage for international attention, I would be far more inclined to accept your definition, as with others.

Given that even the Iron Lady apologised for calling Mandela a terrorist, I'd say the commonly accepted belief is that he is and was not a terrorist.

> That's not exactly correct.

Yes, it is.

> The FDA creates its own regulations. It doesn't just follow laws passed by Congress.

It creates regulations (and enforces them) as a means to executing the role Congress has given it. So, again, if you don't have an argument for how what the FDA is doing is inconsistent with the statutory purpose it has been given by Congress, your beef is with Congress, not the FDA.

clevy, I literally said in my comment I understand the advantages of notes. I don't need to be convinced. Notes are great.

My question is different - to what extent investors find note financing acceptable/appealing? Is it only YC companies that get the privilege? Is it a Silicon Valley thing, not used much elsewhere (like Seattle)? Is it used everywhere, and I just happened to be unlucky with it?
That was just recently at PAX IIRC.
MtGox is known for abusing the market and cancelling trades when the price falls significantly. It happened before [1].

One way to look at it is that they prevent a bank run. The other perspective is that they trick people into thinking the market price is higher than it really is, making unaware people lose even more money as they buy at the high price and the crash happens anyway, just over a longer time.

[1] http://www.malwaretech.com/2013/11/mtgox-nearly-breaks-bitco...
This also happened on the 19th. There was an article posted explaining that their crash prevention code was processing a big sell order, reversing, and then infinite looping. This looks like the same thing.
I was pretty skeptical of that particular example anyway. If a user is opening random files from untrusted sources, security has already gone out the window.

It sounds like (unsurprisingly) Singapore uses the same system used here in Hong Kong. I'm not sure if the same system is used in mainland China.

index, middle, ring, pinky, thumb splayed = 5
thumb, pinky = 6
index, middle, ring, pinky, thumb all held strait with their pads touching, looking a bit like a shadow puppet of a bird's head = 7
thumb, index = 8
just the index finger, bent in half = 9
Better or worse, it is difficult to get public support for moving from with terrible results that trickle out nearly invisibly over time to a system that still has disasters but whose disasters appear as a few big booms.

Clearly, the public is more motivated by a move to solar, which actually appears safe whatever its real overall costs would be.

The problem is that while nuclear power may be potentially have the best cost-benefit of any power source, economics and human psychology seem to imply that nuclear power as it will appear is going to be visibly dangerous something human psychology finds less desirable than the poisonous and costly status quo (see evolutionary game theory etc).

Engineers ... love to solve logistical problems and push their solutions on humans, whether these solve the human's problems or not.
"Stealing" a bitcoin involves exchanging messages. There is no physical movement of objects, no direct financial effect, and not even an obvious copyright infringement.

What circular rot: because creative people have historically faced rejection, that rejection is good, because you'll need it.

"Perhaps for some people, the pain of rejection is like the pain of training for a marathon—training the mind for endurance. Research shows you’ll need it. Truly creative ideas take a very long time to be accepted. The better the idea, the longer it might take. Even the work of Nobel Prize winners was commonly rejected by their peers for an extended period of time."

Well, except that the term "Terror" as a political act and "Terrorists" for those who practiced it -- well, except in French, not English -- was coined to refer to a particular set of successful (to that point) revolutionaries and their actions (and embraced by them.)

Pensions are a foolish idea and I seriously hope no one under the age of 50 takes a job with a pension, expecting it to actually materialize. But the workers of the past didn't have our benefit of hindsight, and we should do what we can to keep our promises to them.

But seriously, guys, don't offer your employees a pension, and if a potential employer offers you one, laugh in their face. Let us manage our own retirements.

As a third world inhabitant who really saw all the "wonders" of capitalism here, I really don't consider Cuba a bad place to live. Travel restriction? We also have this here because only rich people have money to travel. "Move freely"? We have this only to people who can afford this. Beatings, detentions? We also have these things for people who lives in slums. I already talked with cuban people and people who really traveled to Cuba and the place really isn't the hell described by the american media.

The cuban government pursuit dissidents? How difficult is to identify legitimate dissidents from spies and people financed by enemy nations in a country so attacked by hostile powers? A country that suffers from sabotage, embargo and terrorism with a little help from the CIA (like the apartheid).

From my perspective I can relate Mandela's struggle with Fidel and Che's struggle. A lot of african countries can thanks Cuba for their independence. 300 000 cuban soldiers were sent by Castro to fight for the independence of african countries and 10 000 died there. To ilustrate what I'm saying, this is a speech by Nelson Mandela spoken in 1991:

A group of people collectively bargained for future payouts from an entity that was only represented by its current voters (or in some cases, shareholders).

Predictably the pensioners-to-be asked for generous pensions, paid early in life, at the least expense possible. Predictably the public purse was more generous with future payouts that didn't look like debt than it would be with present payouts. Predictably the economy shifted away from uncompetitive and unionised sectors of the economy in Detroit to Austin. Predictably the now-pensioners claim that they paid for pensions and are thus 'owed' them.

But from whom? Either they never cared to set up a fund or did and had the state backstop it, and now there is no money. Retiring after 32 years and earning "80% of your best 4 years of pay" for 40 years (remember, they keep paying out when you die because your wife still needs to eat, so we have to handle the statistics to handle the average case) turned out not to be affordable on the tiny percent they put away.

What else was ever going to happen?
Bitcoins are divisible down to 1/10,000,000 BTC. That's actually the fundamental unit of a transaction. The network doesn't deal in whole bitcoins, each transaction is recorded as some number of these little tiny pieces. (They have been nicknamed "satoshis" after the creator.) So technically it won't make any difference to the network.
The best advice I can give you is to go out and meet business type people. If you live in a community that has business/startup meetups I would attend some of those and just meet/talk with the people. Ideas will start to flow and you will have people to bounce ideas off of. Also read as much as you can about business and everything related to it. Don't be discouraged, the right idea/opportunity will come.

The answer is a big "it depends." Most times it is simply not feasible for an athlete to participate in two different leagues in the same sport due to either the overlap in their seasons or the geography involved (the highest paying leagues almost all end up as monopolies in their region in that particular sport).

One notable example is female basketball players. The two most popular and highest paying leagues are in Russia and in the USA and have seasons that do not overlap. It is pretty common for good players to play in both leagues. As far as I am aware, there is no restriction on this by either league.

Another example would be in football/soccer. Player's who play in the US are often "loaned" to teams in Europe in order for them to continue playing during the duration of the off-season. This allows them to stay in shape, face better competition, and improve their game. The team that receives the player will generally pay the team that loans the player an agreed upon fee in order to compensate them for the risk of injury. If the two teams can't agree on a fee, the player will be prevented from playing for the second team.
