I've been using this QC toolkit for UI prototyping: http://facebook.github.io/origami/ . Works pretty well.
They exist in suburbs too.
I get and share this complaint for random new startups that nobody has ever heard of before, and where the link is to the page that should be telling me what it is.

But this is an old, well-known project. If you put "QEMU" into Google, literally every single hit in the first page of results is about it.
Not only do the NYC suburbs have an expensive cost of entry (rentals are nearly non-existent in many of them) they also have high ongoing carrying costs.

If you have more than one school age child, you may come out ahead versus paying for private school, but for those without school age children you are paying a lot of money for not much in return. It is for this reason many people are waiting until their children are actually ready to start school before moving out into the suburbs. That can easily be mid to late 30s for the demographic that can afford these suburbs in the first place.
Mainly around spinning up instances and network latency.
I'm not aware of one that's broadly-based though I'd love to find it. Slashdot used to be, although I haven't frequented it in many years.
I think this is closest to the correct answer, so I will try to expand on it. Qemu, is a processor emulator[1] and can emulate processors like x86, x86_64, ppc, mips, arm etc. Qemu is usually run with kvm[2].

There's a lot of bad information here.

Your kernel is tainted whenever you insert non-GPL-compatible modules, it has nothing to do with the quality of the software.

VirtualBox is perfectly usable without the GUI.
I can only imagine how awesome it's going to be, given the excellent design (simple, readable, content-focused) of the other work you guys are doing.

If I may ask, it seems like the design of the consul site is one step (iteration) away from the serf site (particularly, the docs pages -- some subtle changes made a large difference)... I agree with the others here, really dig the site, and big text definitely doesn't hurt deeply technical descriptions architecture page was very readable for me
In the suburbs, there's no sense of community or character, nothing unique that distinguishes one suburb from another. It's truly a shame that the vast majority of the American population have been and will be deprived of a childhood that includes a chance to walk to school, take the train to a museum, and play with other kids in the neighborhood.

Suburbs also play a central role in making car ownership absolutely necessary in order to perform even the most basic daily tasks. This, if you think about, amounts to discrimination against the elderly, children, and anyone who is not able to drive or afford a car.
'Most Earth-like planet yet' spotted by Kepler
Oh, excellent. Thanks very much for the reply.
Interesting how peoples' experiences differ. I did mowing/lawn care work through high school and college, and loved having hours and hours in the sun to just think. I have two (unpublished) novels that I was able to plot and write thanks to that job.
I wish they were with the original commentaries that press used at the time they first appeared. It would allow to see those "news" through the eyes of contemporary viewers.
That is an interesting project but won't yet help to speed up the (very slow) JSON unmarshalling.
The redo-inspired build tool I wrote abstracts the tasks of composing
a build system, by replacing the idea of writing a build description
file with command-line primitives which customize production rules
from a library. So cleanly compiling a C file into an executable
looks something like this:

Find and delete standard list of files which credo generates, and derived objects which are targets of *.do scripts:

> cre/rm std

Customize a library template shell script to become the file hello.do,
which defines what to do to make hello from hello.c:

> cre/libdo (c cc c '') hello

Run the current build graph to create hello:

> cre/do hello

Obviously this particular translation is already baked into make,
so isn't anything new, but the approach of pulling templated
transitions from a library by name scales well to very custom
transitions created by one person or team and consumed at
build-construction-time by another.

Also see other test cases at
https://github.com/catenate/credo/tree/master/test/1/credo and a
library of transitions at
https://github.com/catenate/credo/tree/master/lib/do/sh-infe...

I think this approach reduces the complexity of the build system by
separating the definition of the file translations from the construction
of a custom build system. These primitives abstract constructing the
dependency graph and production rules, so I think it's also simpler
to use. Driving the build system construction from the shell also
enables all the variability in that build system that you want without
generating build-description files, which I think is new, and also
simpler to use than current build-tool approaches. Whether all-DSL
(eg make), document-driven (eg ant), or embedded DSL (eg scons),
build tools usually force you to write or generate complicated build
description files which do not scale well.

Credo is also inspired by redo, but runs in Inferno, which is even
more infrequently used than Go (and developed by some of the same
people). I used Inferno because I work in it daily, and wanted to
take advantage of some of the features of the OS, that Linux and bash
don't have. Just today I ran into a potential user that was turned
off by the Inferno requirement, so I'll probably have to port it to
Linux/bash, and lose some of those features (eg, /env), to validate
its usability in a context other than my own.

EDIT: Replaced old way, to call script to find and delete standard derived objects, with newer command.
Interesting concept. It's a pity you've copied Loren Brichter's Letterpress style a little too much (http://www.atebits.com/letterpress/).

Also, the animations could do with a little more fluidity, and where are the sound effects?

I sincerely hope you take these points constructively and use them to further your success in your next versions!
Facebook: Introducing A New Optional Feature Called Nearby Friends
Coppersmith is complex enough that I'd be impressed to see working implementations even in lab conditions; it's one of the lattice reduction crypto attacks.
It is, and it isn't.

I've owned a house. Or rather, I've had a mortgage on a house. I spend a bunch of money each month. After some number of years, I owned some fraction of the house.

I've rented. I spent a bunch of money each month. After some number of years, I owned precisely nothing.

So that's how it's an investment. On the other hand, what I'm primarily buying is a place to sleep each night, not an investment. So in that way, it's not.
Yeah I think that happened around the time they started sharing data between products. It's hella useful when it comes down to it (and you can be quite restrictive with your location in G+).
You can take it a step further with an old-fashioned reel mower. They work quite well as long as your yard isn't ridiculously large or weedy.
Most people here who don't have good opinion of Condoleezza Rice (myself included) because of the significant parts she played during the Bush Administration probably agree with the points you're making.

However, gender has nothing to do with it. Building your criticisms on top of misogyny throws your entire motivations into question. The foundation has already rotted out and the rest of your arguments fell through; it's doubtful that most here are taking you seriously at this point.
Let's not forget that the article is ignoring the fact that the demographic shift isn't that people with kids are choosing to stay in the city. Its that people are waiting longer to have kids, so they are waiting longer to move to the suburbs.

Not saying that there aren't an increasing number of people choosing to stay in the city with kids. I'm one of them. I have two kids and live in a high-rise. But the fact of the matter is that we are a rarity in my neighborhood. Everyone else my age in the building has zero kids.
Not completely related since "the embryos created in these recent experiments may have certain limitations that would prevent them from giving rise to a human clone", I was thinking how would a clone embryo differ from a twin? We know that environmental factors physically change twins, and that also applies to clones. So if we consider twins to be different people, we should also consider a clone to be a different person.Then why all the pushback and "laws explicitly banning human reproductive cloning"?
Your reasoning about why your friends don't want to drive may be anecdotal, but we do know for a fact that car companies are indeed struggling to get young people to buy cars.
Boy reported missing turns out to be a construct of false Facebook accounts
Yeah, you went from 8 vCPU Cores to 2 vCPU Cores on that plan as part of the upgrade. It seems the processor upgrade makes up for that decrease a little bit, but it is a decrease.
It was ultimately my idea to pit these two teams together in this format but I initially got the humans vs. humans suggestion from a coworker. I initially had it as a single human team versus a computer AI but I think this makes for a more exciting matchup!
For what is worth, they're better off with Dropbox than with Facebook :)

Loom had a lot of success since Everpix got shut down, now it's interesting to see which startup will fill their place.
"couldn’t be happier" — don't people want to build companies anymore?
> They are "graying" because it takes more time to accumulate the money to live there.

The article mentions that this is part of the effect ("late arrivals" because people have kids later, and having kids and deciding to move out of the city to the suburbs often go hand in hand.)

But they are also "graying" because the US as a whole is; the 25-34yo population segment of interest here is smaller than it was in 2000.
I prefer the "we bottle no wine before its time" model. It's one of the many reasons I prefer EL distributions to Ubuntu.
They just need to be sharpened too frequently and heaven forbid you put off mowing for a while or have a few rainy days in a row. The resistance is pretty strong if the grass is remotely tall.

Of course, this could all be a case of me getting old and lazy, which I suspect it mostly is.
Roughly 1/e * pi.
The problem I see with this at large events such as rock concerts is the speed messages come in with. In just small group chats of 5 or 6 friends sometimes everyone sends so many messages that I can't keep up. What happens at a rock concert when you have hundreds of messages coming in? Will people even read them or take the time to scroll up to see past comments? At that point it basically becomes impossible to carry on conversations.
I'm so impressed with the UI and execution. Very well done. No complaints, except that it's perhaps the move timer is a little fast.

I first learned about Ultimate Tic Tac Toe here[1]. Might be worth a link to that post -- it's a great explanation with surprisingly satisfying illustrations.

Illustrated introduction to the Haskell heap
Team Twitter > Team Github! :) tribal chest pound
You can usually sell a house for more than you put into it. Mortgage and rent are usually comparable (I find rent is usually more). Rent is not an investment at all, as you'll get absolutely nothing back when you leave. Even for worst cases like buying at peak, paying for maintenance, selling low, interest costs as much as the house, etc the result is you still get a big check back; a lousy investment is one thing, knowing you won't get anything out of it but momentary use is another.

And methinks the biggest "investment" value of all: when you own it outright (may I recommend you suck it up, get humble, and pay cash up front), it's yours and nobody can evict you. Knowing you'll have a safe place to sleep is huge. Yeah, property taxes exist (far less than rent, which you're paying in your rent anyway), and eminent domain may screw things up (unlikely if you choose wisely), but it's far better than risking receipt of a notice saying "sorry, but we've sold the building which will be demolished next month".

If nothing else, buy a $10,000 property somewhere (see zillow.com) and DIY build a $20,000 small house on it (lots of options available, search "tiny house"), cash as you go. If I'd have a do-over, I'd go that route no question.
You are right, the Consul site is very heavily based on the Serf site. It's actually almost entirely just a re-skin of the same site. The design is a bit cleaner however, which does make it nicer to read.
I'm a little irritated by the challenge not because of any delay in rotating certs, but because its whole premise was invalid; the challenge was accompanied by a long blog post that presumed a model for how RSA keys hit heap memory that appears to have been self-evidently false (again: I might be wrong here).

Or, to put it differently: Akamai, which attempted to write a secure heap to contain memory corruption flaws in OpenSSL, conceded immediately Willem Pinckaers observation that they weren't protecting the CRT intermediates. Akamai seemed to believe ahead of time that keys weren't simply loaded once and held.

There are lots of smart people working at Cloudflare, but I think the "challenge site" approach was a waste of time. The stuff John Graham-Cumming posted today, showing bitmap diagrams of the memory space of OpenSSL processes, would have been much more productive as a starting point. Diagrams like that are a standard part of reverse-engineering practice. They should have started there, and not with the challenge site.

We all make mistakes (some of mine are easy to find). I'd just say that a lesson to learn from this is, "err on the side of greater severity, not lesser."

(Is what I think.)
Announcing The Release Of Our Ubuntu 14.04 LTS Image
Fabulous idea. Good luck and continued success!
No, I don't need this to comply with PIPEDA, but for a couple of my projects it would be nice to be hosted within the country.
The combination of inflammatory, if not abusive, language with glib one-liner sarcasm makes for a particularly bad Hacker News comment.

All: When you see a comment that is truly bad for HN, you can flag it by clicking "link" to go to the item page and then "flag" at the top. We monitor those flags and take action based on them.

(My point here has nothing to do with the Iraq War.)
If you are running on autopilot doing the same stuff each day (daily routine) then yeah no need to write your to-dos. But if ideas & tasks pop into your head daily then writing it down is a must. You are fooling yourself thinking your short-term memory is a sufficient tool.

Re the not to do list, aka Jack Dorsey's, yap its a great "daily reminder" when it comes to “changing habits”.

But you still need a list to remind you what to do that isn't part of your daily routine.
They operate at different levels of abstraction. It appears like Consul offers a superset of the features that Serf does. It also includes a consistent key-value store based on Raft, which is also really cool.

No, this is a new feature for the display manager. Previously in Ubuntu (with unity) the window would be the whole window area would get covered by an orange transparent film, and it was the orange film that would be resized. The actual window would only resize on release.

Yes, not exactly a revolutionary new feature, but newly enabled in unity by default.

I didn't know about MicroConf. If you are the kind of person who attends MicroConf, would you know if there are websites like TechCrunch, geared towards 'micro' startups? The kinds of startups which are generating enough revenue to replace a salary or two?

Ask HN: Rise on the current company or quit to work 1y abroad on a StartUp?
Initially, my english is understandable but not great, I apologize for possible mistakes.

I am facing a dilemma. I live in Brazil and am in my 25s, I ended my graduation course and immediately started my msc degree. Finishing it and having being in touch only with academia until then, I quickly started working at a relatively good company (something like 6 months ago). It has been a great place for me. It acts in the almost same area I got my msc degree, it is near home, people here are great, and I have been praised a lot in the previous weeks - I would probably rise well here. The company itself it not really big, but it has a reasonable chance to rise greatly in the next months, but who knows how that will actually turn out.

Then, suddenly, I got an invitation to temporarily drop "everything" and move to Scotland within 2 months, to stay for a year and work on a small startup. I would receive £1000/month to survive there while working on the project. Considering my current work, that is not much, but the experience is what counts. The details here do not matter on the startup details or why I received an invitation with such short notice; my problem is weighting the plus and cons of each possibility. The appearance of an opportunity like that is rare for my lifestyle, so it may be unique. Such experience could be a life-changer, but I am not sure on how beneficial that would really be.

Dropping everything and traveling is the obvious right choice?
It seems to me that it -should- be the obvious one, but I do not feel certainty.
I just looked at your site, and I couldn't find answers to a couple of key things. First, what if I have more than 300GB of photos and videos (I do)? Second, what platforms do you support syncing on?

If that's really the play, Hackpad isn't the right acquisition. The real value is in the sheets/excel space, and the knowledge of collaborative document editing doesn't naturally translate to spreadsheets (the general nature of edits are not linear)
The New York Times likes to write these articles about upper class lifestyle issues as if they apply to a more general audience.
I'm not suggesting that purchasing real estate as an investment is a good idea, just pointing out the absurdity of the OP's comment that no house would be a good investment at $900k.
Your point is very true - plan 1 may not be monetizable, but a large user base with a lot of data can open other doors. Facebook is another example - it was never going to just monetize people poking each other with sheep.
How does it relate to this discovery: https://news.virginia.edu/content/uva-smashes-barrier-growin...
("By manipulating the appropriate signaling, the U.Va. researchers have turned embryonic stem cells into a fish embryo, essentially controlling embryonic development.")
This seems like it's just a byproduct of people waiting longer to have kids (or not having kids at all). I know if I didn't have kids I would prefer to live in an urban area vs a suburb.

Am I wrong? Are people that live in dense cities having kids? (And if so, how they make it work? The city seems terribly inconvenient for raising kids.)
But even Search wasn't enough for Google; it's not wrong
for companies to expand their offerings.

Google has made billions consistently from it's advertising operation. Their shift to other areas have always driven to expand search.
Ugh, Etherpad shoulda been copyleft. Hackpad is a travesty for being so non-transparent that they're just a tweak of Etherpad.

There were only two sentences of text above the game, perhaps they contain the answer to your implied question?

"Join the elements and get to the tile with 256 isotopic mass! Watch out for unstable elements though, as these won't be around forever!"
I'm tired of this "they worked hard for that" BS with acqui-hires and shutdowns.

Yeah, sure, they worked hard, but in the end they get a big fat F for the end result.

Services don't last forever, but I'm not gonna congratulate someone who runs around in circles for 3 years purporting to deliver a product of value, and then gives up when offered a better deal for themselves.

They didn't build a product, they built a nothing. It's like reverse vaporware, and I won't respect it.
This is a real risk, and why large companies don't like working with startups.
Luckily Hackpad isn't going anywhere so you can go ahead and sign up to try it out :)
What? With Linode you can easily add more ram. It's an awful deal ($5 per MB), but you can do it if you really needed.
Exposure.co looks pretty good. However, looking at the history of the projects ran by the creators you might be in for a bumpy surprise...

At least the service its prices are sustainable. Or premium.
Okay. I see you technically have a point, and maybe I should be stupidly pedantic again:

You know the numbers that show up on Craigslist when you search for a given set of apartment configurations in any one particular neighborhood? New housing, even luxury housing, will cause these numbers to go down and not up. These numbers are also what most people are talking about when they talk about "the rent is too damned high" and that's also the number that everyone in the market for a rental actually cares about.

Yes, rents will almost certainly keep going up, that's true, because the new construction in San Francisco is pathetically small. But prices for a new rental of each and every extant apartment will be lower than they would if there were no new construction at all (or if there was negative construction).
This is a huge problem with SAAS in general. The ephemerality not only of our data, but of the entire service, is highly disturbing.

Next time I buy a tool, I'm going to look for something I can hold in my hand (metaphorically speaking), and use until I decide not to.

Real-Time Data Streaming Gets Standardized
Thanks for the comment! I considered giving each team 10 seconds per turn but settled on 5 seconds since I didn't want the games to last too long. I wanted to make it such that people kept saying "oh I'll just play one more game." And - for what it's worth - I think that's the same place I first heard about the game.
