The difference being I don't have a history of doing such things and then repeatedly lying about it....
Normals don't understand the difference an adjustment can make. You can tap the sound post half a millimeter and feel like you're playing on a completely different instrument.
Uh...didn't he web have a 20-30 year head start?
Thanks for the advice.

I have started doing some work with ruby on rails to make sure that I do not lose touch with programming. I have also enrolled in a bunch of coursera classes which have helped out. Thanks for the words of encouragement. It is people like you who make this forum worth coming to time and again.
I believe rare instruments like those are always kept in pristine conditions, and nowhere it is mentioned that the new ones had adjustments done, you can assume they all were received in 'normal playing condition' from their owners.
FYI: The carry distribution schedule mentioned in the article (carry after 3x) is way off market for a VC GP-LP relationship.

The most typical arrangement is 20% after 1x in LP distributions, with some variation in what are called hurdle rates (that is, different percent carried interest at different multiples or IRRs).
'I have no reason to doubt her; she's a professional violinist.'

You know that claiming to be a professional violinist is an appeal to authority rather than a logical argument, right?

That said the study does seem to be massively misreported.

Indeed. I think the one flaw in their system, at the moment, is the xbox needs to be on all the time if your cable box is connected to it; if it's powered off, there is no HDMI pass-through.
I thought Apple bought the v1 kinect company and the xbone's kinect is all ms internal?

That said the new kinect voice is SOOOOO close to being good, the stupid thing fails more often than siri though so I tend to forget to use it ever except the first day I got my xbox.

I still hate that I need to pay for gold just to watch netflix (this is the reason I have my Apple TV tbh, I maybe use gold over the winter but other than that I got better things to do).

The multitasking is quite brilliant though, it transitions between games so flawlessly its almost uncanny to me.
I don't think it changes the numbers too much but do these numbers consider web usage inside apps like Facebook and gmail?

Apps have an enormous advantage when it comes to acces to the device like photos, camera, address book and notifications.
It's good to see someone else in HN from Nepal :) We are a rare bunch.
There seems to be an assumption that personalisation could only ever be as good as it is now. Can't we imagine an implementation of personalisation as good or better than a site's editor could reasonably deliver to their readers in nearly all cases. Better, by the same criteria as the article advocates: diversity; richness; editorial voice etc.

Now, stepping backward from that ideal to the present, what steps could we take to reach that goal?
Sure, you have the freedom to install any apps you want.

However, if I am starting a business, and most people don't know how to exercise that freedom to install an app from somewhere else, I am not going to get very far in my business if this is what is required for my end users to use my program. Therefore, I am not going to invest time in developing anything that requires that sort of installation, making it practically the same as not being able to do that at all.
Thanks Idoh! This focus on the process seems to be a good way of mending the havoc that comes with reliance on results. It at least makes for a good story and something tangible to take from one job to the other.
For this to fail, wouldn't the mailing list have to send the message on to its subscribers listing it as "From" the Yahoo email address? In that case, it's the mailing list doing it 'wrong' (in the eyes of SPF, DKIM, et al, anyway), as they should be sending it 'from' their mailing list email address, not the original person who sent the message. This isn't a new problem as SPF has required mailing lists to do this for years now.

*UPDATE: Clarified 'wrong' wrt the various protocols.
> Totally agreed on the over-complexity and un-securability of TLS, that too often is deployed where something simpler should be used instead.

What would something simpler, less error-prone which would give the same benefits in a client-server connection?

EDIT: Spiped is one, I got it (I'm on it right now and might even use it actually on a side-project), anything else that we should know about? :-)
Probably to make it more clear what you're referring to, and double-check yourself. There are probably components that are 1 byte, 2 bytes, and 16 bytes long. Writing it out makes it clear and eliminates a chance for human error in the sum, more than a magic 19 does. (I guess 16 is pretty magical too, though. At least it's a "round" number, and in context may be a well-known field size of something in the protocol.)

In general, the idea comes out of the Rochdale Principles [1], which most co-ops use as a sort of guide. The specific idea of giving preferential treatment to other cooperatives as clients/customers -- I don't know, that may have just popped into my head. But it seems like good strategy.

I'm done here. You clearly have no connection to reality, and this is distracting from more important matters.
Do you know of any controlled experiments to test the safety claims for automatic traction control? People used to say similar things about ABS. Then the experiments were done, it turned out to be pointless or possibly dangerous, and people started talking about traction control instead.

Automatic bounds checking could well fail the same way that ABS did: programmers won't bother defining a packet data type, because the compiler will catch any mistakes they make fiddling with arrays. So, like drivers with ABS, programmers with ABC would go faster, but they wouldn't be any safer.
Money, and a corporate culture where being good at your job is, at least in some way, part of the equation.

For instance, a programmer in Spain makes about a third as he would in the midwest, with the same cost of living. He'd also be able to find a job by having skills that fit what companies need, instead of being about being a good friend of the CTO's nephew.

And that's a developed country in the EU. Imagine the same thing, in one of those places that have immigrants that move to Spain.
Never heard of them before. Seems neat, but I was curious about need for so many permissions for a lockscreen and task switching app.

(Several minutes later) Installed it. It fired bunch of network connections right at the startup and doesn't even worked without registering with some cloud service telling me it needs one to just "install" (like I didn't install it already). I really don't get why such app would need cloud junk except for spying^W metadata analysis and/or advertising. Oh, right, an important feature to back up the fact I browse HN in the morning should work as an excuse.

Guess, nothing of value was lost, then.
How would someone manage to get commented out PHP in the HTML? Has the behaviour changed? The only way I can think of doing it would be to replace the PHP open and close with HTML comments. I can't imagine anyone doing that.

That's a fantastic idea! The argument against more visas is that they drive down wages for current residents, and this seems to counteract that.
I think the only answer to this question is: the universe folds in on itself and implodes.
FYI those visas are not the only way to get foreigners to work in the US. But it is one that is very interesting for companies.
As much as there are a lot of people in the world (many of them right here on Hacker News!) who don't care about the mechanics of how liquidity is provisioned in markets and consequently have kind of backwards views of HFT most of these people aren't, you know, trading stocks.

So here's my question: since the people that are trading do tend to understand these things (if for no other reason that they'll go bust if they don't), won't liquidity providers run away from IEX as fast as they can? How do Brad Katsuyama and his partners think they'll actually scare up enough liquidity to get maintain a functioning market?

I'm a little befuddled by this.

This, more than anything, is what I wish I could do. Unfortunately with a work visa, that is not an option. Closest thing to a vacation might be to find a behemoth of a company and work a fraction of the hours that I am now working. It will probably be immensely unsatisfying, but it will give me a chance to recharge.
Boy, what a loaded question! Tell me, do you still beat your your wife? But seriously, do you think there are any injustices in the world at all? It sounds like they don't count if they come from, or ar at all influenced by, one's peer group. How do you propose to find justice and injustice if not by agreement by the people that make up society?

Second, by your definition of harm, if a restaurant refuses to serve black customers, and people boycott it so the owner must close down, they have wished him harm and are on the "black panther" side of your equation, yes? Even if he must only change his policy, his "right to think" has been impinged upon, so I suppose that is also harm, right?
I've heard the hours are much longer though for that field. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Technically the title is a little misleading.

If you google "AppCoin" ~90% of results are decentralized crypto-currency related. That's also the context that Naval and Fred Wilson have used it in. It's a bit weird to see it used in another context.
Ask HN: A crypto-currency for supporting informal education?
Dear HNers,

I am involved with Funoon (funoonfoundation.org), a non-profit working to organise informal learning spaces. These informal spaces are basically physical spaces where learning happens on a peer-to-peer basis, guided by a mentor/ tutor.

We are brainstorming on how to incentivise talented people to come in and spend an hour or so weekly with a learning group. We can't pay them (at least not to start with), and without a solid incentive, its hard to get things going.

So I am wondering, if its a possibility to create a crypto-currency that solely exists to pay out a small chunk to anyone who comes along to mentor/ tutor at a learning space. My guess is that HN would be an ideal community to enlighten me on this.

With the advent of remote work upon us, I find it hard that you'd be limited to those countries.

It sounds like you had a good experience, and this would be a good argument to make to people if you're hoping to get the law changed.

The resistance to this tends to come from people who are concerned about the long term housing stock. It is most profitable to build a studio in your garage and rent it out on airbnb, it is somewhat less profitable to rent it out to a long term tenant, and it's far, far less profitable to build an extra bedroom for a growing family, cause small children don't pay rent and cost you a bundle in child care costs.

Allowing this sort of use would mean that in a bidding war (which is how all property in SF is sold), the people who plan to airbnb part of their house out will hold a huge advantage over someone who is looking for expansion potential for kids. So my take on it is, maybe we should zone some of the SF for single family use. Which, here in SF, we've actually already done.

That's the argument I'd make against allowing unlimited short term rentals in every single corner of SF. I would like to trade my right to engage in short term rentals in exchange for legally enforced expectation that my neighbors won't do this either, because I'd much rather have friends for my kids nearby than a neighborhood of short term vacationers.

We can disagree and resolve it at the ballot box, and I understand the problems with 50%+1 legislation. Some people won't like the outcome. So I guess I'd ask if you feel this sort of zoning in some parts of San Francisco (single family housing, no short term rentals) is so unjust that it is an unreasonable law that should (or must) be disregarded?
Then I agree with you both. Thanks for the clarification.
They often do that (resend with the receiver being the person). Mailing lists have intense debates over the correctness of replying to the sender by default or to the list by default (and whether or not you want to add cc or not). Many also munge the subject line with things like [The AWESOMEList] because forever and ever people's mail clients could only filter on subject lines or body text and rarely additional headers.

I appreciate where Yahoo's heart is, but this wasn't really well thought out on their part.

It makes sense to compare the purchasing power parity and not just the dollar amount. Argentina is an up and coming destination for tech folk but the standard of living and opportunities offered are not at par with the US (specifically the valley)
I'm all for web apps but I have to admit, when I'm using an app frequently I always download the native app. In most cases it's just a better, faster and smoother experience.
We are missing important metrics here. Mobile is getting more short intervals of usage. We are connecting more often throughout our day were we otherwise would not access a desktop. We need to consider the baseline of usage historically to project a more accurate vector of platform use. Are we just using the internet more in general? My bet is yes. This data is basically incomplete.
Those numbers probably have some significance. `1` seems to be "heartbeat type" and `2` seems to be "heartbeat length".
Why is that a problem? They wouldn't bring in H1Bs unless there was an obvious benefit. Your "problem" just reduces the gap between value produced and compensation.
Yes, they make their own (awful) programming language, that spits out VBscript, PHP etc, to write their products in. I kid you not, it's called Wasabi -- though I'm not sure if they use it still.

For all the advice on hiring Joel has given (and its annoying tone for what is, basically, a very simple app company, and not even a very exciting one at that), you'd think they were coding for the space program or something.
Australia has an uncapped temporary migration program for skilled workers (http://www.immi.gov.au/Visas/Pages/457.aspx), the situation described in this article can not happen in Australia.

What do you mean, when you say "I am depressed"? You mean the clinical/medical term described on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Depression_(mood) ? If so, go to a psychiatrist immediately!

But if you just mean you are unhappy with your current situation, I would say (like the advice you already got) talk to your boss. Did you do that?
If you are a procrastinator, why not start a side project you feel passionate about. Apparently you can work fast, so I would suggest doing more (like side projects or learn new programming stuff). Seems silly advice maybe, but I think it might help you.
But, if you really don't like your job, don't stay just because you like the company or the colleagues. You can see the colleagues after work and in weekends.

Exactly. Companies need to receive the death penalty for some of these infractions so that there is no incentive to game the laws.

After a investors lose 100%, they will stop funding companies that do illegal stuff.
The sawtooth wave seems more pathological than it should be.
Actually, the differences in compensation can be much more substantial than one might think. I spoke to a few interns last year who were entering the job market, and compensation ranged from fully paid housing and nearly 100K (annualized) to numbers less than half that in the same geography. For college students, the difference between earning 10K or 20K in a summer is likely a decision that could require more than a weekend if the 10K comes with external upside.
Great universities.

Real economic mobility - you can really make it big if you're smart, persevering and slightly lucky. Who you know matters to a certain extent in all countries, but the significance of that factor is less in the US as compared to the other countries, in my opinion (others may disagree, of course).

Basically, for internal infrastructure, where autossh wont work and/or where something simpler than ssh is desired.

So the strawmen arguments about it not replacing TLS is not the point.

I think they should be auctioned off. (Either the company or the individual could pay the final auction price.)

The end result is the same: the most valuable workers are let in. It'd also have a small, but nice benefit: a voluntary revenue stream for the US to spend on whatever it would like (perhaps improved education and training for citizens).
