Ex-Upcoming employee here. I have no expertise to suggest that a cooperative model can work on the internet, but I agree.

Personally, the experience of watching Upcoming wither and die is what got me first interested in alternative ways to pay for social networks and other community service websites. Co-operatives are one possible model.

That's 2 non sequiturs in three sentences. The reason why people live in grinding poverty is because they are, for a stunningly wide variety of reasons, unable to accumulate capital and bring their own resources to market. If you divide resources fairly today, they will be back to poverty tomorrow, because the very same people will take the distributed resources away from them that currently take their savings opportunities.

Besides that, the flip side of your argument is that protectionism is the only force keeping poor people from becoming rich. Economics is not a zero-sum game. It is far more complex than you portray.
"for seller to transfer the domain to broker/escrow agent/middle-man"

Well to start domains aren't transferred to these parties these parties merely facilitate the transfer by way of others that have a stake for one reason or another.

Perhaps it's best to state how this typically works.

a) A person owns a domain
b) A person may be acting as a broker or middleman for some reason on that domain.
c) There is the current "old" registrar of the domain.
d) There is the new registrar that the new owner wants to transfer to.
e) c&d may or may not be the same company.
f) There may be an escrow service, say escrow.com in between. Purpose to make sure the right thing happens and the ownership is actually transferred.

If Dave is the buyer, Joe is the broker, and Jane is the seller, Godaddy is the existing registrar and namecheap is the registrar that Dave (buyer) wants to use, here is what should happen.

1) Joe gets the auth code from Jane or Dave gets the auth code from Jane etc.
2) Joe or Dave gives the auth code to Namecheap.
3) Namecheap gets the name transferred over from Godaddy (I'll skip the exact details on that part for simplicity). Much happens here obviously to make this actually happen.
4) Both buyer and seller agree the transaction is "ok" and the escrow company releases the money to the seller.

This proposal is ridiculous!
They are offering the possibility to work after 6 years of H1B or in early phases of Green card process.

- Their intent doesnt seem to be providing Spouses with opportunity to work, but instead prevent dropouts of those people who get fed up of the process and either go back home or apply for Canada PR. I know few such people myself

- Important point: During the 4-6 years when the spouse cannot legally work, either they have given up on their career or have already signed up for a graduate program in order to get an F1. It is basically useless to offer jobs to someone after 6 years of being jobless and they have very very less competitive advantage unless they have a made a productive use of time by doing stuff such as freelancing and pro-bono work.

- Dependents of L1 visa (L2) are allowed to work on EAD, I dont understand why it is so complex for H4's.

- Another effect of this would also mean that the govt might not consider increasing the CAP for H1B next year, but rather try to retain the exising H1B's and try to get their green card done.

So, although this change seems optimistic, it isnt that helpful (I myself was very excited after I first saw this)
Most of the discussion has been on irc: #docker and #docker-dev on Freenode. There are several contributions underway under the general "theme" I described, but if it helps I could write a summary of how the experience will change for the user (normally there should be almost no UI change).
I'm pretty sure that means use int32_t instead of int64_t.
I think this is all super useful feedback for the founders. i hope they see this thread

Half the population of South Korea lives in the Seoul metro area, which has the same population density as the city of San Francisco. The whole of Hong Kong is a single city, again about as dense as San Francisco. The whole country of Japan is about as dense as the state of Massachusetts, the 2nd densest U.S. state. It's about twice as dense as New York, the 7th densest U.S. state.

Dense U.S. states outperform the overall U.S. average significantly (and comparably to Japan): http://www.bizjournals.com/boston/blog/techflash/2014/04/rep....

Out of the 10 U.S. states with the fastest internet, 8 are just the densest states (+D.C.) in a different order.

Comcast's monopoly seems to be the problem. If a Comcast user in NY can't watch netflix past 5PM, wouldn't they, I don't know, look for a better ISP? After all, their ISP just ain't getting it done. The only missing piece is the market competitor that is supposed to balance out Comcast's dickheadedness. Why, after decades of 'free market', do we have customers that are stuck? I think this is worth mentioning to users.

That sounds like the plan. I just can't think who's all on board.

I would update the headline with the full "For your convenience" lead-in. I think it's important to the tone.
Well done fake. Maybe satire?
Three things:

1. The difference between an Occupy encampment and a clustered homeless population is that the Occupy encampment is there to disrupt the surrounding area (that's the point: to generate awareness) and the homeless cluster is there for safety and convenience --- in other words, for the intrinsic benefit of the people in the cluster. Policy responses to those two different circumstances aren't comparable.

2. I do not disagree that displacing organic, emergent clusters of homeless people to improve optics and quality of life for residents and tourists is an unfriendly and probably unhelpful policy response to homelessness. It is not my contention that shuttling homeless people out of the Mag Mile in Chicago is a positive step. This is, however, the standard policy response to homelessness in much of the US (not just Chicago), because the overwhelming majority of urban residents want it to be.

3. The relativism underpinning your sentiment about not judging the lifestyle of the homeless is disquieting. Homeless people aren't hobos. They aren't deliberately living a different lifestyle. They are an underserved population of mentally ill, substance-dependent people continually victimized by their circumstances through lack of medical care, death by exposure, and crime. Let me help you out: it is OK to judge homelessness as bad. Homelessness is bad.
Don't have a minimal test case yet, I'm seeing it happen on a page with >150 files bundled into a single file with a base64 data URI source map. If the debugger is open on page load, it hangs for 30 seconds to a minute, but loads practically instantly if I open the debugger after page load.

Is there an existing bug I can chime in on or should I report a new one?

So I just started playing with docker today at lunch and have to say I am super impressed with it. I'm excited to play around with it and learn more. I am planning on using it help manage many versions and configurations of a certain daemon to test my application against. Do Dockerfiles has any sense of inheritance? I am trying to think of the easiest and most maintainable way to set this up. Should I create a base image of a working install for each version I want to test with and then have a Dockerfile to make the configurations changes for each test case? It seems like I would get into the place where I would have a Dockerfile for a test case and then I'd have to make copies of it for each version and change the "from" line.

"easily worked around with the Falcon Heavy configuration"

I'm a little concerned about the propellant crossfeed aspect of the Falcon Heavy (the liquid boosters on the sides feed propellant to the core, which will be mostly full when they separate ... and that's much sooner than a normal Falcon 9 first stage is finished boosting, might make reusability easier).

If they pull it off they'll be the first ever, right?

Not saying they can't, but unlike almost everything else they're doing, this is new "rocket science" to my limited knowledge.
Your name-generation for those automated accounts are hilarious.
"By using a middleman, he know that he won't get scammed: either he get the domain, or the money back."

That is actually the point of using an escrow service such as escrow.com for domain transactions. Escrow.com in essence makes sure each party has the proper outcome.

"the owner can ask for a different price based on who asked"

Nothing prevents the owner, when dealing with a middleman, from taking advantage of the buyer even with Sedo in between.

At a certain point in the transfer process with SEDO the new owner of the domain is revealed. Nothing to prevent the seller from deciding to not sell the domain. Doesn't even matter what the legal status is. Fact is nobody is going to sue over some small amount of money. [1]

Let's say you own "slig.com" domain. You decide to sell it by way of SEDO. You list it for $2500 which you think is a good price. Then you see (later on) that Facebook is the buyer. You decide "hmm maybe I should not sell it" and you find some way to get out of the deal knowing that facebook probably isn't going to file a lawsuit to get the domain but will most likely decide to give you more money and just be done with it.
Ha, I don't know if it's ok to rip people's CSS file and then "attribute" it unless they specifically say that's ok it's still copyrighted.
I would KILL for something like this on Android. I know on Android it's not standard to layout UI in code but even just a better Android WYSIWYG layout xml designer would be wonderful. People have proven that it's possible to create gorgeous custom Android apps but it's definitely easier on iOS.
Correct. I am curious why although I imagine it has to do with caching (fewer cache misses). Apparently he addresses it in the video but I haven't watched it yet.

On a meta-note, I'm really happy to see more highly technical submissions like this hitting and sticking on the front page.

EDIT: from the slides:

Prefer 32 bit ints to all other sizes

1. 64 bit may make some code slower [no additional explanation given]

2. 8, 16 bit computation use conversion to 32 bits and back
I applaud you doing this from scratch (besides stealing Reddits styles), it sounds like you've learned a lot. How'd you decide on this project?
Nice to see them closing those <uint32_t> tags. C++ users always forget to close their tags.
Loops are generally special cases of recursion. You can always derive an iterator from a recursor by forgetting things, but you need product types or ambient state to go the opposite way.

In Turing complete languages they're both special cases of fixed-point equations, though, so in that sense they both have the same goal.
I'm guessing it's all in the marketing?
are they selling Russian software to Russians? if not, beside strong education in the soviet times, it's probably a very good career to sell software to the westerners.
Changing jobs while on H1B is a massive -- massive -- pain in the ass. You need to basically find a company who wants to deal with the headache and the legal expenses, and hope that USCIS accepts your transfer. This significantly limits a visa-holder's choices in terms of employment. Startups are pretty much out of the question, and most medium-sized companies as well, unless you're well-known in your field.

I took some classes with Marc-André Cournoyer (http://classes.codedinc.com/) and really enjoyed the format he used of online video, 4 hours a day for two days.

FWIW, I think what you are thinking of might be a good (better?) fit with that format.

Either way it sounds interesting!
Pointers would be an exception, of course. As others wrote he's talking about general data. Just because 64-bit ints are faster on 64-bit processors than on 32-bit processors doesn't mean you should use them when a 32-bit int would suffice.
Exactly; my first thought when reading the article was an escrow service. Reducing counterparty risk is exactly what they were designed for, right?
A habit I've gotten into since using fb messages, Viber/WhatsApp/Telegram is sending lots of messages with less words. So instead of one long text I might send 4-5 short ones. That will get you to 50 messages easy if you're texting a lot of friends.

Reddit CPAL license (Common Public Attribution License Version 1.0 (CPAL)) states so.
The focus for 1.0 is to offer the APIs necessary to customize Docker in every way you need - including custom sandboxing backends (like for example BSD Jails).

There is now an execution driver API (which was indeed planned for 1.0), and now it's a matter of the community contributing and maintaining a BSD jails driver that works :) There are several efforts underway, but we (the core developers) can't contribute and maintain every driver possible, it would be too much work.

If you're interested in participating come say hi on #docker-dev on Freenode, we can help you get started :)
I actually did something like this at some point. I took all the high ranking items, tokenized them to extract features, and ran them through a bayesian classifier to do some filtering. I was just using whatever information was available on the front page and did not do any further analysis with the actual content.

The results were ok. Maybe with a bit more power it could be more useful but the results were still hit and miss and I didn't have a long term strategy for not filtering myself into a bubble other than continuously re-training the model.
A class action lawsuit is overdue against these internet providers over selling. I feel like I'm on a 128k ISDN most days, it's literally that slow. When you call in, they say, well, "Up to 3Mps" doesn't mean you will get it. ISPs are charging us by possible speeds, they need to deliver or discount when they can't. if you promise me about 10-15 widgets an hour for $50 and all you can consistently deliver for a month is 2-3 widgets. You should not demand $50.
I was a bit unclear: my general point is just that you can decouple code in ways that doesn't necessarily increase cohesion and you can decrease cohesion in ways that doesn't necessarily increase coupling. If you are designing a system with some rational interfaces and layers of abstraction, then most of the time you will find these two variables have a very direct relationship.
> Because the American government exists to serve Americans. It's not fair and it's not supposed to be.

You miss the point that the definition of 'American' is quite arbitrary. It is 'fair' in the sense that it is a sort of 'Nash equilibrium'. Since around WW2, 'citizenship' has been based on a set of arbitrary norms [1]. You can become an American by just being born here, when your Indian or Chinese parents were visiting New York City for vacation. You can become an American by working here for 20 years, getting a green card, and then becoming naturalized. You could also become an American citizen in other ways. Further, America has a higher bar than Canada, and Switzerland has a higher bar for citizenship than America. There is nothing innately patriotic or 'American' about it. Until 1952, Asians and Asian Indians were barred from citizenship. Until civil rights laws of 1965, immigration was based on quotas[2].

Interesting. I guess Google is pushing domain owners to buy a Google Apps account instead of just using mail forwarding. I've been forwarding my personal domain to my Gmail account for almost 10 years now and only pay for the cost of the domain renewal. I wonder if you will be able to bypass this by creating a filter to move all e-mails put in the "External" folder back into your inbox.
People say that a lot, because they've heard it somewhere, but do you actually have the facts to back it up? I'd have to check my books to be sure, but I think you're talking about SMS delivery over the SACCH. That's an associated channel, meaning it goes along with a traffic channel, so that would apply if you were in a call. If you were not in a call, it would have to go over a standalone control channel SDCCH -- in other words, that channel would be being specifically used for the SMS transfer.

And, of course, there's the cost of running the SMSC.
It doesn't matter if its no-blocking, if they allow their current service to degrade to the point that it is unusable. That's exactly the same as blocking for everything, except a few specific services that paid for the 'fast lane'. And its already happening

The Udemy Pyramid Scheme – Why I stopped Teaching at Udemy
Yeah, us geeks are very good at dismissing amazing potential businesses. I mean, why would anyone use Dropbox when there's svn and git!
Funny you say that. I thought the writing of this article was far too good for Forbes, which is a shifty piece of trash.
I imagine this is trolling, but nonetheless: it's not so much about it being unfair, as it being horribly inefficient. It's a completely arbitrarily defined market over which we (strictly, ICANN) have total control. In your central market the only person who stands to lose out from any inefficiency is the owner of the property, who could get more money by selling it to you, if you truly could make more money from it than they could. In this market anyone can buy a new domain name, so it's not unfair, but the rules of the market have been defined such that people profit from it without providing any value. I'm not complaining about it, I'm merely suggesting that it's an opportunity to increase market efficiency - it's not a trivial problem but our current solutions to it seem very poor. A service, for example, that would hunt out truly great domain names for a particular purpose, buy them and then sell them on at a profit having helped the purchaser find them would be providing great value, but if the process is "search for your own domain name and then purchase it from whoever previously thought of it", it's a bit disappointing.

Yes, caching. 32 bit quantities are often sufficient, and take up less space in cache.

Additionally, code that handles 32-bit registers in x86_64 is often shorter than its 64-bit counterpart due to the lack of REX prefixes in instructions. This also reduces the instruction cache footprint. Some instructions like integer division and multiplication are also faster when handling 32-bit quantities, but this depends on the microarchitecture in question.
A confusing piece about explaining the confusion. Ten minutes of reading, I'm more confused.
An interesting hypothesis, thank you for your reply.
That's around 4 per hour. Doesn't seem unlikely to me, especially when you consider the general melding of texts and IM.
