Twitter Redesign – Facebook Similarities
Making more sense than Nest is a low bar.
Its a preference, but I have a number of friends who only will use a laptop or desktop if they are watching Netflix or doing work. Even if they have a laptop inches away they will still use their phone for YouTube, Facebook, and any other browsing.

I have one friend like this who had a mishap that resulted in a blowtorch in his trunk burning a hole right through his laptop. By some miracle the laptop works. It runs like shit and looks awful, but he refuses to replace it because he has no reason to. He rather use his smartphone for the majority of his computing needs.
A custom cable joke site too? You guys are asking for it.
It's venting. I'm assuming that a measure zero but nonempty subset of the HN community operates as a support group. The rest is either neutral or actively and gratuitously hostile. Incidentally, you could not "know" that my rant has no value to me, at least if you believe that knowledge is true justified belief, since the rant did have value to me. I do not claim that it has value to anyone else, though there may be some value in knowing how attempted collaborations can go awry in specific cases. Finally I am attempting to rectify the situation by recording my decision to leave. This makes it more difficult and potentially embarrassing to reverse the decision.
It does have some warts but is the best out there. I believe the code review market is very ripe for disruption (especially for software hosted publicly on sites like github).
That rings true, yet casual users are not the only profitable market for software. Not by a long shot. Look at companies like Microsoft, Autodesk, and Adobe. They do very well selling professional software--software that's never going to translate well to a phone-sized screen.

If anyone could post a video link or download that doesn't require flash, it would be appreciated. There seems to be a MP4 file hidden somewhere in the layers of obfuscation in their streaming player.
On level 15, my deaths keep changing the editable window. I'll die and then the last several characters (4 I believe) of my code get swapped to uneditable until I reset.

I'm also encountering a bunch of exceptions during game execution instead of at build, which are making things rather hard to beat. I'd list them but they vanish faster than I can read them.
Really I can only assume that there are plenty of other bugs out there. It's just a matter of how few people know about any of them. I dunno, keep your secrets close. PGP. Meh.
That cheap? A freelance web/Mobile developer can charge over $5K per week, I find it hard to believe that you could get quality security code review for that price

Drones Helping to Map Fukushima Cleanup and Reconstruction
Coursera has a nice course on Machine Learning[0] and the 4th and 5th week deal with Neural Networks specifically if anyone wants to learn more and get his hands dirty with octave/matlab code.

I believe a solution would look more like what Hal Finney called transparent servers [1]. This would be a way to solve the issue of scaling (and getting rid of mining oligarchs), but also dealing with the necessary privacy issues of contracts. Also DNS is not really a contract between 2 parties, but N parties, and there is a relationship between DNS and contracts (more on that per PM by request).

No, not making any comment about the content of the article... it's a great article. This is just more generally addressed to people who are thinking about going into "consulting" or "freelancing" or "contracting" or whatever one wants to call it. I just want to point out that people should be aware that just because they refer to themselves as a "consultant" doesn't mean that they will necessarily be treated as such.

And again, a lot of people may not care about the distinction. For someone who is used to sitting in a cube 8-6 as a W2 employee at Initech, they won't be any worse off if they're sitting in a cube from 8-6 as a C2C freelancer. But for people who think that going freelance is the route to more respect, more freedom, and less of that "cog in the machine" feeling, then I advocate spending some time thinking about how to make that leap to "consultant who gets paid for sharing insights" as opposed to being just another (apparently fungible) nameless, faceless coder.
Security: Heartbleed vulnerability
First sentence in the article: "Atlassian, an Australian maker of online collaboration tools for businesses, is gunning for the same market as fast-growing startup Box Inc."

Saying that they're gunning for the same market seems a stretch to me. No one's going to say "I was thinking of buying Jira, but I just went with Box instead."

Leading off with drawing parallels between Atlassian and Box just strikes me as not helpful.

See that "40 00" there? That's hex and 0x4000 = 16384. Change it to something like "02 00", so it's 0x200 = 512, or 0x400 = 1024 ...or whatever you want.(But keep it at a power of 2... I assume).

Python 2.7 is still dead.

>Short version: Python 2.x is legacy, Python 3.x is the present and future of the language

>Python 3.0 was released in 2008. [6 years ago] The final 2.x version 2.7 release came out in mid-2010 [4 years ago], with a statement of extended support for this end-of-life release. The 2.x branch will see no new major releases after that. 3.x is under active development and has already seen over four years of stable releases, including version 3.3 in 2012. The next release is the upcoming Python 3.4 in early 2014. This means that all recent standard library improvements, for example, are only available by default in Python 3.x.

Can you give examples of SaaS companies which did that in 4-5 years; I know you said 'by VCs', but i'm curious.
Did they acquire HipChat or was that home grown?
I have interned at PWC and Deloitte and then after graduation, I worked at Deloitte for 5 years. I found that I was able to do valuable work right after joining and even as an intern. As an intern at PWC I did ethical hacking and had a good deal of oversight, but was able to own writing up documentation and participated in client calls. For a later project that summer, I had direct client contact and was seen as a strong contributor to the team. At Deloitte, my experience was similar as an intern but with slightly more ownership. Once joining Deloitte after graduation, I was holding one on one meetings and design sessions on a regular basis with the client about 4 months in. Initially, my project was more focused on data analysis and while I did have interactions with the client, they were limited as I did not need to interact with them much. Experience will certainly vary from person to person as the responsibility given to someone will change by project and also with how well management knows you, at least earlier in your career. After about a year or two, it is not uncommon to be owning an entire piece of the project and it goes up from there. They probably wouldn't hire you if they didn't feel they could put you in front of a client early on.
"Please enlighten me, since it was too hard for you to do that in the first place."

I don't have one, and I haven't looked closely, but I do have several friends who are ME grads and from what I understand it can cover a lot of control theory and machine learning stuff that winds up being applicable all over the place (there's currently a lot of demand for ME grads in finance, robotics is a possible growth area that uses a whole ton of things from ME, &c).

"Also let me know why I need to know the nuts and bolts of an ME degree to understand that far more people are getting pushed into ME than people that are actually getting jobs in ME."

Because "what the degree covers" is tremendously relevant to whether there will be growth in demand for people with that degree, which is the entire question here. I think software supply is more likely to outstrip software demand than ME supply to outstrip ME demand, though not with high confidence (the future is always uncertain).
I once contrived a Y-Combinator-backed and memoized implementation of fib() in pure C (with the blocks extension for real closures). It was a mess, but it was pretty cool:

Observing that Ruby eliminates entire classes of bugs doesn't mean that Ruby eliminates all bugs; just that your attack surface is smaller.
A malicious server can also read the memory of a client using the same heartbleed vulnerability.

So the -NSA-mafia can go get the private key from a vulnerable server, MitM its clients, and attack those clients too.

Nasty stuff. And in the last day, even those agencies that didn't know about the vulnerability beforehand have likely spidered the entire web scraping everyone's keys just-in-case.
Saas Integrations – how to improve partner/app marketplaces for Saas companies
sensepic.com & vinescan.com are probably the two best that I own.
Do you have any insight for what the security implications would be (if any) for an OS like this?
I thought professionals would be more likely to add in exif data for copyright information.
You are confusing two things. I am talking about the files making up a database. MongoDB doesn't use one file per database - instead it allocates files up to 2GB in size (the first one starts at 64MB and then they double in size until the 2GB limit). So for example a database that is 200GB will consist of (roughly) 100 2GB files.

What you linked to is a consequence of memory mapping. Mapping a single 2GB file in a 32 bit process will use up virtually all the address space and you couldn't map more than one at a time.
DL;DR: the current 'flat design' fad is a reaction to skeuomorphism overuse and abuse. Flat design isn't really the solution either, since close adherence can hinder intuitiveness. Therefore, a compromise the author calls "post flat design" is a fusion between the two styles with a focus on content and intuitiveness rather than implementation.

Personally, I don't know if "post flat design" is the solution, but I'm sick of flat design. I prefer skeuomorphism, but agree with the author that it has been overdone: I don't need a photo-realistic leather binder for my note-taking app, for instance.
This would mean that web analytical packages and third party PPC management tools wouldn't have access to the data about what terms people had searched for before they click through.
BitBucket and HipChat are fairly recently acquisitions, but fit perfectly in their portfolio. Some of their lesser-used products are also acquisitions.
I have similar sentiment. Use a lot of Atlassian tools over the years and I am constantly bitching about various issues... eventually someone says "ok, find something else that's better"... and I can't. Not for lack of trying... there are lots of competitors... but they all are lacking.
Hell, it's unlikely that a network beyond a specific size can even log flows, much less data.
The information distribution should not be any more skewed than Bitcoin because every block can be validated by itself assuming only the validity of its parent as prior knowledge. This differs from the Israeli authors' GHOST, which assumes that nodes already have the uncles; in our system, uncles are included in the block. But we are definitely going to be doing various kinds of network simulations to make sure that every network protocol we push out is stable and convergent.
My priority on graduation is to find a position working for someone else in a good environment, doing fulfilling (software) work for a fair wage. I've gravitated toward web apps over the years, so I figure I'd aim for something in that ballpark.

I'm no salesman, my contracting work has come entirely from word-of-mouth recommendations and repeat business. I enjoy the freedom, but I'm interested in the possibilities of full-time employement.
Cold call. Cold talk. Networking events. Developer meetups. It's honestly so easy. Handout business cards, have a decent site with a portfolio + some sort of automated contact form, maybe even an automated quote generator. Have one buddy do all the networking and bring you clients, you do the work, make money, reinvest in remote employees, keep doing this, get an office, hire some in person staff and boom, you have a consultancy.
They acquired hipchat.
One possibility is that designers can show their work even if it isn't open source. If you did the design for a public-facing website, you can show it, talk about it, make it part of your portfolio. A lot of the code is viewable in the browser anyway.

Backend coding on closed-source projects, on the other hand, is rarely visible, rarely credited, and under some circumstances, you can get into hot water legally by sharing that work.

So open source may provide a degree of professional exposure for coders that designers already get regardless of whether the project is os.
have you seen the pricing? it's insane
Yeah, you know you're doing something wrong when even the PlayStation 3 UI is beating you on intuitive use.
5-30 days fits my experience with ordering stuff from China / HK. Sometimes it arrives really fast, other times, not so much.
Perhaps they meant the stock market? I also thought "man, I guess I missed where Atlassian went into the cloud storage market" when I read the first paragraph.
Seems the comment is trying to highlight the difference in staff augmentation consulting (what they're calling a "contractor") and strategic consulting (maybe that isn't an appropriate title, but driving business/design decisions). As someone living/working in Seattle/Bellevue as a consultant, both resource types are highly sought after, especially in larger enterprises in the area. It could be worth noting that just out of school or in a general field, it might be easier to land a staff aug gig at a larger firm than a strategic role running one's own consultant business.
I think there's no question that apps have brought a wide range of interaction capabilities that couldn't have existed in a web browser-centric world. However, I believe that Gruber is missing Dixon's point that an app-only world bring forward many disadvantages as well.

I think both agree that without native apps, we wouldn't have many of the functionality that we have today. But, there's still the real risk that any app could be removed or prohibited from the App Store for unclear reasons.

The movie "Sneakers" keeps coming to mind.

"Too many secrets" indeed.
This is completely the wrong approach. Your private key might have been compromised and you're generating another certificate for the same compromised private key? What is that supposed to do?
That's only 3.3 Instagram's, one Snapchat, or .21 WhatsApp's. Solid proof consumer tech is always more profitable then enterprise tech.

For just straight-up bug tracking, Bugzilla isn't all that bad. Though we do some fun interactions where we put SCM commit messages on a bug as a comment, then have a Greasemonkey script to pretty format those commit comments on bugs.

For feature tracking of timeline type of views, Bugzilla is fairly useless, but for just doing bugs, it does a good job.
"And yet, not a single VC I've asked if they wish they were in Atlassian has said no."

Well sure, a hit is a hit. A hit that took 3x time is still worth being a part of if your hit ratio is less than one in three. With hindsight, of course they "wish they were in Atlassian."
I don't disagree. While it may have been the lowest hanging fruit for this particular study, the doctors who conducted heart disease research with overwhelming male subjects didn't even consider that there might be gender-related differences [2].

I'm a guy who had the opportunity to attend a Women's College [1]. As a result I'm more aware then most men of things like only including men in a medical study. Since HN is predominantly male, I feel a personal responsibility to highlight such things, because things like gender and ethnic heritage do matter in medical conditions, even conditions that may look very generic in nature (e.g. heart disease or paralysis).

To be clear, my original comment didn't say this particular study should have been conducted with a different sample, I said simply that "it'd be really nice to hear about generalizable research being inclusive of minorities (e.g., 4 Chicana women instead of 4 Caucasian men) earlier in the research process."

[1] Only women were admitted as residential students. There were a myriad of reasons that guys could attend classes. But we were still very outnumbered!

[2] For more than a decade my grandmother complained of what turned out to be primarily female symptoms of heart disease, but her GPs were only aware of the primarily male symptoms. It was only when she visited a emergency room and was treated by a doctor that was cognizant of the differences that she got a proper diagnosis. In the end she died of heart disease, who knows how much longer she would have been with us if heart disease research had been more inclusive earlier on or her doctors were made aware of more recent research.

The Apple Newton did this; used a single address space and some fine-grain protection capabilities of the MMU to get proper security. It was . . . okay, but it's unclear what the performance hit would have been if we had run out of hardware-level protection IDs (there were 15 or 16 domains, IIRC). ARM later deprecated the MMU features that we used (and properly so, I think).

There's a 1994 COMPCON paper on it.
I think you misread... the poster said they used a new private key with the same CSR.

You could just display the coordinates that are currently under the mouse. Adding two changing numbers to the statusbar is fairly minimalist.
Salesforce was founded in 1999 and IPO'd in 2004. Marketo was founded in 2007 and IPO'd in 2013.

Both are closer to 5-6 years. Salesforce had just over a $1B valuation post-IPO, Marketo was ~$500M.
And one of the best resources: from industry connections that you worked with before, then have moved on to other projects. If they hear of a project need that fits your skill set, and you've been getting coffee with them at least 2 times a year, they'll probably call you first.
>great software that people love

As someone who has to use and administer JIRA I'll have to respectfully disagree. The nicest thing I can say about the product is that it was built "by engineers, for engineers". People who want empowering software that gets out of the way appear to have been an afterthought.
Heartbleed Alexa top 10000
This is really interesting.

Can I do this with my own Ion?
Yes, down in the Q&A of details of what's leaked, not in the "here's what you need to do" section. It makes you think, "wait, the details say reissue keys...why does the 'what you need to do' section not say that? Did I misunderstand?" It's not very clearly written. Not to mention "revocation of the compromised keys" is itself vague: which keys are compromised? "The crown jewels" of course. We must infer that we're talking about the SSL private keys. And again, because revoking those keys is not mentioned in the call to action, you're forced to question whether your inference is correct.

As an actionable bulletin, this page leaves a lot to be desired. Nice logo and domain name, though.
Many of the products were acquisitions, though often at a very early stage in the product's lifecycle. Off the top of my head, acquisitions: HipChat, Bitbucket, GreenHopper (now JIRA Agile), SourceTree, FishEye, Crucible, Clover, Crowd, Bamboo.

The CSR contains the public key for a unique private key. How do you have a new private key with an old CSR?
No, you're wrong in two points:
- they have higher profits than Snapchat or Whatsapp
- you have chosen 1 enterprise tech and 3 consumer tech company randomly, and based on that, you claim that consumer tech is more profitable than enterprise tech.

Well, I say Microsoft makes more profit out of enterprise then Facebook makes out of consumer. Does this prove anything? Not at all.
I also don't like that it's harder to tell if shift is on or off, now. Pre iOS 7, at least it went blue. Now it goes from black on white to white on gray, I still couldn't tell ya which is which. The case of the keycaps changing with the state of shift would fix that, too.
Might I add this code is VERY rudimentary at the moment. But yes, you will =)
