Disclaimer: I don't live in Seattle any longer so the situation I am about to describe may have changed in recent years (but I doubt it).

Story: There's a 5-way intersection near the University of Washington campus. The city put up cameras and started collecting hundreds of thousands of dollars per year in fines. Problem: city ordinance stated something like any ticket resulting from a photo must come from a camera mounted at a 90 degree angle to the street. Notice the bit about it being a 5-way intersection? None of the roads came together at a 90 degree angle. Point was, the city continued to violate their own ordinance for years because that single intersection was a cash cow - the whole system was automated so the pictures were taken, cars identified, tickets mailed. THAT is why there is so much outrage about cameras in the US - it's the Man kicking us around.
I'm a mac user, but honestly I've always thought Windows 7 to be a good OS. I've never really used Windows 8.
I think there are two important areas he doesn't touch on:
1. Timing: The most successful companies are also the ones that are usually at a particular point in time when an opportunity exists. Too early, you fail, too late, you fail as well (for different reasons).
2. A scalable idea: The most successful companies find product or service ideas that scale hugely. These ideas are pretty rare. More often, people find ideas they like and can execute but turn out to be ideas that scale only so far. Sometime it turns out that they've actually founded a services business and didn't know it. More often, they find an idea that can scale to, say, $5m in revenue but then has trouble scaling beyond that. Billion dollar ideas likely represent a very small portion.
Really? I've installed it on a few relative's computers and they have all loved it and were able to pick it up completely on their own. Literally in one instance I installed ubuntu on my dad's laptop, and left the day after. He didn't even call me once for help on how to open something or do something (except for installing Skype, which he would have done anyway if it was a windows machine). It was all there. And these are people that don't know how to attach something to an email. IMO the biggest problem is getting the damn OS on the computer, everything after that is cake.

Plus, pretty much every linux distro has a sort of "start" menu, and a taskbar. What kind of problems are you encountering?

We're talking about two very different types of pricing strategies that each work very well for two very different types of release.

With a big-bang, "it's done, ship it" release, going out at a high price captures high revenue from the few high-expectation customers. Dropping the price later captures remaining revenue from the many low-expectation customers. Steam-style repeated sales have the bonus marketing benefit of being noteworthy and counter-intuitively do not appear to cannibalize high-revenue sales much if at all.

With a slow-burn, "it's not done yet" release, going out at a low price matches the general low expectations for the product and has the bonus marketing benefit of getting talkative early-adopters on board early and also getting them increasingly excited as development proceeds. As quality increases, price increases accordingly. This has the bonus feature of putting some time pressure on customers who are on the fence about the cost/value proposition, but want to lock in a lower price by buying early.

World’s Most Innovative Patent Troll Sues the Government
Did anyone else notice that the numbers for 2011 seem to have a resolution of about 120, whereas the numbers for 2014 (by age) are either rounded to the nearest million, or else they just don't have good enough info to guess to anything closer than the nearest million?

And the "3 million" claim is based on multiplying this guessed-at year-over-year variance by 3. So if the margin of error is about a million, times 3...uh, you do the math, folks.
It's just a guess, based on my experience with exposing Linux to a handful of my extremely computer illiterate family members.
Well, frequentist methods are taking the blame for the most recent financial crisis, such as assuming a normal distribution when the empirical one is fat-tailed.

Perhaps the Bayesian methods will take the blame in the next financial crisis. Such as the error in estimating a non-stationary distribution and quantifying the uncertainty.
Most AAA games still have ridiculously short tails. Even before the sales at 6 months Bioshock Infinite was probably at something like 80-90% of its expected lifetime revenue.

The game is also free on PS3 for PlayStation+ members this month. I noticed that all of the games due to be on PS+ this month (BI, Brothers, Don't Starve, etc.) were heavily discounted in the Steam sales.
Chances are it's a boring answer -- lots of things were blindly cut due to the sequester.
I think these numbers are a bit inaccurate.

There are 549,000 Married Teens (13-17), yet only 1000 Teen Parents.

That makes absolutely no sense to me. I would understand it if the numbers were reversed, but this is just plain inaccurate.
It's a good thing we are on the good side of the fence then. Ah, Freedom.
Well, it's you who said that "IO action" is the best description, not me. I personally wouldn't consider 8 characters excessive for a type that's imported into your program's namespace by default. Especially considering that you would hardly ever have to explicitly write that in Haskell.

Then again, my code doesn't have to fit into 20-character research paper columns.
Wow, I actually think you are trolling. I never thought that trolling HN about obscure technical concepts would be a worthwhile use of someone's time.

Just in case you're not, and in case anyone else is following along at home, here is my position.

The Chomsky Hierarchy draws three distinctions or boundaries between grammars:

1. type-0 (unrestricted, recursively enumerable) vs type-1 (context-sensitive)

2. type-1 (context-sensitive) vs type-2 (context-free)

3. type-2 (context-free) vs type-3 (regular)

Distinction 3 is a deep and practical concept that all programmers should know. Distinction 1 is practically useless. Distinction 2 is actively misleading.

Also, when Chomsky developed this hierarchy it was in the context of natural language. He was trying to generate English sentences, not programming languages (which were still rather primitive in 1956 when Chomsky wrote his paper). It is not surprising that most of Chomsky's hierarchy is of limited use to Computer Science, since it was never intended to be.

From what I can tell, it's a side effect of the way they architect the inter cell (a cell is 6 or 7 qubits) communications. This points to a larger problem of course, where we can show entanglement within the cell but cross cell entanglement isn't as clear (to me, but I might be behind the curve on this)
And rightly not, since many of these devices don't even provide photo identification of the driver.
Oh, completely agreed. I was enlightened when I read that standard deviations were defined the way they were in order to make analysis easier; it seems more than reasonable to me. But there's no difficulty in just taking the derivative of |x|, and I hate seeing random misinformation out there.

If I were MS I'd provide no updates to laggards. They either can't upgrade or they won't upgrade, so what's the point? What does another year of virus definitions really get them when the Fisher Price OS can already be exploited in so many other ways?

I was responding to your question, in which you were asking what "an IO" was. You seem to have some kind of a grudge against Haskell. I'm not going to argue with you about it. You're welcome to continue programming in Java for as long as you'd like.
it really depends on the situation. of course I'm being g a bit dramatic; working long hours is really hard to not do as a founder, because it really is your life. but it's not 100% your employees' lives, and implied culture is just as important as that defined by company mission and policies.

Statistical economists or analysts always said that the normal distribution is a simplification and that this simplification has its own problems.

It's just that traders and bankers would fire statisticians who were too vocal about it as wasting their time with unnecessary explanations...

Bayesian methods in general can only take the blame if you can prove some other method being more reliable.

Also they have another advantage: Bayesian methods are so mind blowing and beautiful, that it is hard to blame them for anything!
I could swear I've heard the bit comparing video games to other art forms before. Anybody heard that from another comedian?
I noticed also that almost everything they showed was non-perishable goods.

The smuggled footage in this is fantastic and remarkable. The interviews with the North Koreans in the South were also quite interesting.
Have you ever tried running a modern browser on a machine with less than 2GB of RAM? It's not pretty.
By the time a AAA title gets discounted in a Steam sale it will have been available to torrent for a long time already. A game that lasts a few days without being cracked is remarkable.

San Francisco is fast becoming the most boring "big" city in America. Take a look at the boring office-park culture that SV is famous for; that is the future of SF. This change is inevitable as rents increase and the only people who can afford to live there are white and Asian males between 20-35 who work in tech. (I mean no offense by this comment. I fit into this demographic, but I will admit that as group overall middle class tech workers are culturally homogenous and thus incredibly bland.)
Why don't go fuck yourself ? Every time I see your comment I always wonder why the FUCK you post link to your website. I mean, just see your own comment history. We all know you are girl who code, so there are thousands many like you , more smarter , brilliant than you. Don't for FUCKING sake relate everything to you. Its like saying I am super hard worker and everyone else is stupid. Again, go fuck yourself
HN pages are possibly the worst case, very hard to infer structure from due to its 1998 coding standards. You'll have a better chance with an alternative interface like http://ihackernews.com/ or http://hckrnews.com (no comments though).

What you're describing isn't as easy as it sounds. In order to have a "hardware buffer that always plays at the same speed" you need a high-quality locally generated clock, plus a decent amount of local buffering. But in a USB audio device or SPDIF device, you can't run a totally independent clock, because it will get out of sync with the clock on the host device sending the data. There are various tricks to get around this (e.g. having a feedback loop using a sideband), but it's actually a non-trivial problem. See: http://www.cypress.com/?docID=45044 for one approach. Most USB audio devices don't even attempt to do this. They try and recover the host machine's playback clock using the timing of USB SOF packets (which are sent every millisecond-ish) plus the timing of the USB audio data packets it receives.
There's quite a few people on quora - try asking there.
How does twitter report usage? I bet 50% of their users don't log in month-after-month if they wanted to skew that data.
The stream is pretty saturated right now.

TBH, if you've watched 2 or 3 other North Korean documentaries, this is kind of more of the same, except maybe a full third of it was filmed by North Koreans in North Korea using smuggled cameras. The information is more up-to-date also, but it the basic gist isn't really anything too new.
TL;DR San Francisco is too expensive at the moment and you get more garage space in LA's cultural desert. And lots of bands move there and it's warmer.

EDIT for clarification - I don't think it's a cultural desert: I think the article says this

In addition to my other comment in this thread (in response to shykes), I want to add respond to this:

> but does not support fast, incremental build and deploy or tagging

Deploy/tagging is actually already a PR to Packer and will be merged in shortly. Incremental builds are under development. They'll make it in hopefully in the next version of Packer, but if not, the following.

And the incremental builds will work for AWS, VirtualBox, etc. as well.

Wow. Dictionary definition of "smug" right there.
In theory, at least, the reconciliation is to side with the little guy. When there's a massive imbalance of power, there's an idea that you will be more restrictive of the powerful side.

The theory is that this is in the public's best interests.

So, in theory, if you have two giant companies that control 95% of the distribution of widgets, you might decide that they cannot merge into one entity. But if widgets are made by a bunch of tiny independents and sold to those two distributors, you might allow the independents to form a co-operative association.

In practice, lawyers and lobbyists will say and do anything to get an advantage for their clients. But that's the theory, and that's why it's generally easier to form a union than it is to form a cartel.

What was Kim Jong-un Like as a Boy?
This documentary is really good. It's impossible not to gawk like a tourist at the pathological outcomes of the command econconmy, the wretched poverty, and the Orwellian anti U.S. propaganda, for example posters depicting U.S. soldiers pulling out the teeth of children with pliers, and executing Korean civilians. The film is composed largely of real footage produced by dissenters. No matter how cynical you might be of the demonization of "rouge states" by U.S. media, I promise that you will moved by this very convincing film.

I think Frontline is one of the last investigative journalism shows with real integrity that is left; did you see that embarrassing puff piece a few weeks ago where 60 Minutes licked the NSA's asshole for an hour?

The big footage of the Korean landscape is stunningly beautiful, and reminds me of Vladivastock. Must watch.

Also, if you want to learn more about North Korea (at least from a quasi-American perspective), please go watch "Crossing the Line" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crossing_the_Line_%282006_film%...) a film about a U.S. Army soldier who defected to N. Korea, which was still on Netfilx last time I checked. It will enlighten you, and also weird up your day :)

And yet, @kyro and I and I suspect many others were able to understand perfectly well what @sama meant. The original comment

> what does "ruthless" mean nowadays in valley newspeak? or did i miss a memo about "nice"..?

reads as if the commenter didn't even attempt to understand what @sama meant. Instead, it appears as if he saw that what @sama wrote was technically inconsistent and glommed onto that without actually engaging with the essay. If the commenter was simply offering up copyediting advice, well, he could've left out the color ("valley newspeak", etc.).

As it stands, the comment is utterly boring and, I suspect, reflects the attitude @kyro meant to highlight with the phrase "forced stupidity." "Technically correct" is not actually the best kind of correct (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hou0lU8WMgo).

There's nothing remotely egotistical about what dzink is saying. In no way is she putting other people down, let alone saying "everyone else is stupid." This is one of the few places on the internet I can go and expect to have a civil conversation, and you're ruining it for me.

You are obviously new here, so I'll explain: people post links to their own projects and seek out constructive feedback all the time on HN, and it's totally acceptable. "Fuck you" is not.

I liked using Windows. Keyboard shortcuts for everything and you could be pretty free from using a mouse most of the time. Being able to log into any machine on campus and accessing your files was great. Active Directory can work really well if it was set up properly. SMB worked well for a network drive shared amongst your team, especially for large linked resources, like spreadsheets or databases, while still using named drives as the path (S:\Finance\2014\Projections.xlsx). Dropbox is only ok if you're willing to carry offline copies of the entire shared drive with you everywhere you go (ie, 10GB is ok, but not 100GB or more; our shared drive was multiple TB).

Plenty to complain about, too, but that's true of all OSes, to be fair.

In the very first paragraph, Sam writes "It’s from personal experience and I’m sure there are plenty of exceptions."
