Thanks for the insider info. One question I have though is if they did have access to my account and are able to change addresses after an order is made online, why not go for the gusto and make really expensive orders using my on-file credit card numbers instead of just doing replacement items?

In any case, I've changed both my password and my email address on Amazon, so if they did have access to the account that should solve that issue for now. The whole situation has made me paranoid enough that I'm considering creating a locked-down custom VM used solely for Amazon shopping.
users or people? I have multiple accounts... am I being counted multiple times? (probably).

A growth rate of 12.5 million per quarter is not likely real people. However, say it is... then it's not sustainable because at a point they will be at terminal capacity, ie. everyone who wants a twitter account will have one. Then they will start to shrink as Facebook did last quarter (fewer signups than ever before).
I interpret this as a signal that Tesla will be willing to enter into no-cost license agreements for companies wishing to use their technology, and won't pursue cases against companies who make technology that is related, and where infringement might be plausible, and could go either way when put to trial.
I'm interested in that too. Is it fair to compare Ember and React though? It seems like they are trying to solve different issues.

> Most people don't expect upper bounds, though, when talking about estimations.

What do you mean? If all I know about a number X is that it is an estimate for Y, I would expect X to be an upper bound for Y 50% of the time and a lower bound 50% of the time.

Yeah, makes you wonder if they've heard of A/B testing. I will bet you the Twitter execs don't like being spammed but have no conscience about doing it to others.
Ask HN: Review my startup, Now Planner
Video Link Here: http://www.thenowplanner.com

Often times the worst part of doing anything is getting started. And, it’s made worse if you don’t know where to begin. NOW is a planner that helps you get started on anything by having you share what you know and get advice on what you don’t.

I think everyone is an expert at something. Maybe giving advice gives us a boost to move forward ourselves. I’d love to hear feedback.
Except that such big dependency on legal enforcement and settling everything in court is clearly an American think - we don't see anything near it in Europe.
Hahahah, I feel that would be difficult to market but probably really useful. I'm sure you can learn all types of things about yourself from your stool. I guess when you sat down, it would have some voice recognition to know it was you, like "Hello C'mode!"?

My company (like many many others) have tried advertising on Facebook, and other social networks (Twitter included).

You pay a bunch of money to them, and get almost nothing in return.

It's not nearly as effective dollar-for-dollar as using, for example, google advertising... or just investing in using Email Marketing and building a list.

(I don't see how any social networks will be profitable long term).
This.

I left the website feeling disappointed.
Those are very pretty pictures they have, and a pretty spiffy website, but it feels like the marketing team went a little bit too nuts. The sheer lack of info about how it works honestly left me second-guessing if this was a genuine product or some kind of we'd-like-to-build-this-eventually-but-don't-know-how-yet pipe-dream that they weren't allowed to post to Kickstarter because they didn't have a prototype yet.

Where's the How It Works section?
Not on the front page? Forgivable.
Not in the FAQ? Not forgivable.

At least it's good to hear they didn't tuck it away in the video, doing that scores even lower than not having it in the FAQ in my books.
In college, a group of is (mostly my friends) wrote a kernel in D, with no GC: http://xomb.org

I think one of the useful things to point out is how the $2-5/Mbps transit ($0.45/Mbps transit is probably not realistic in enough places) is billed -- generally, 95th percentile of the higher of inbound or outbound.

So, a site which has a lot of outbound traffic (most web servers) essentially has an equal amount of "free" inbound capacity available. You could sell this to someone doing web crawls, or online backups, or something, but DDoS (if you end up paying for it) is essentially all inbound, too.

The best position to absorb DDoS, if you're not a specialty firm, is to have a huge amount of outgoing web server traffic, huge systems built for that, and really great cooperation with your upstreams to push out filters as quickly as possible. The problem is this only really works against pure resource-consumption DDoS; if people realize a 50Gbps syn flood doesn't affect you too much, they'll move up the stack to layer 7, and then custom-tailored layer 7.

For a site which is huge and constantly being attacked, I could see this becoming a core competency (USG?) -- for anyone else, it's probably something you could outsource.

There are drawbacks to outsourcing your network, but if you're already hosted in the cloud, those drawbacks are mainly the incremental reliability of your outsourced edge provider -- pick a good one. If you're not in the cloud, you need to be very clear what your security model is -- I definitely wouldn't trust bitcoins to any outsourced service provider operating above the atoms level (i.e. a cage in a colo, with no security dependency on anyone running anything above that), but DDoS mitigation is critical for that kind of business -- the optimal situation is to have "untrusted" frontend nodes handling all your incoming traffic, with DDoS mitigation as a service, WAF, etc. probably outsourced, and then application-specific security on your own infrastructure. The DDoS layer can, if it fails, DoS you, but you can switch away from it. The DDoS layer can't actually subvert your application beyond that.
Interesting. I would think that pre-modern humans would be unlikely to strike each other with very much force, simply because they were so strong that one or two blows would debilitate if not kill the opponent.

The Neanderthals are thought to be many times stronger than modern humans, judging by the thickness of their bones and the size of the muscle attachment sites, as well as their likely lifestyles in the brutal Pleistocene era.

If one male were to strike another with full force, it would more than likely cause concussion if not death. In those days, you couldn't afford to lose a healthy male from the tribe, even one you're pissed off at for wanting to mate with your woman.

Probably ditto for other ancestral variants such as homo erectus. They weren't exactly sophisticated, but you have to logically assume that a population that tolerated high levels of violence would be more likely to die out. A population that tended to resort to symbolic confrontations like shouting and gesturing and jumping would be more successful.
The FBI offering offering to kill protestors for banks is not a response from law enforcement I would expect.
Can you prove that your support vector machine works properly, fed with data from Arduino sensors, and can you scale that onto a cloud network while integrating with Active Directory so that users can view their results in a single-page app?

Man pages are more convenient for the typical unix hacker - command-line oriented, vi-using.

They are rendered in less, which supports vi-like searching.

Sorry if the title is confusing, it reflects my thought process as I was figuring out what was going on here in that the title I was going to use was "Amazon orders are subject to replacement fraud" and then I learned about the fact that this has been going on for quite some time and was reported on quite a bit back in 2012 (though I hadn't personally heard of it back then, as far as I remember), thus the added "(still)".

But.. yeah, I can see how that would be confusing as a lead-in.

Wow. I actually have a new patient/establishment doctor's appointment on June 18th to speak with a physician about my lack of ability to focus on tasks and whatnot for more than a few minutes. Reading your post describes me very, very well with the exception of the cleanliness portion.

I am constantly tapping my toes or fingers, biting my nails, clicking my teeth to the beat of a song stuck in my head, etc. My knees even get sore from tapping my foot/shaking my leg while driving in the car. I've been wondering for some time if I suffered from ADHD but didn't want to self-diagnose, and I was too lazy to look for a doctor. Finally set the appointment two months ago and I am ecstatic about finally speaking to someone about it.

One thing that really struck a chord with me was your description of alcohol consumption. Some of the the best stretches of productivity in my life have been when I was holding a buzz after two beers, or the week I was taking Vicodin for a wrist injury. It's like they calm my brain down enough to let me get things done.

I also feel like many people just shirk it off as me being lazy about doing things. Want to study for that certification you've been talking about? Just sit down and do it; turn off the distractions and get to work! It isn't that easy, yet I feel guilty when people think of it that way, even though I know there's more to it.

Thank you for sharing your experiences, it has given me some hope that I might be able to get some help with this.
Welcome to Hacker News. I sit back and read the pedantic and skeptical comments and just shake my head - this guy made the greatest and most positive contribution in any industry in decades, but all we have are self-opinionated software developers trying to play Patent Lawyer.

I've been happy with NewsBlur.com for the last year. I have a premium subscription ($24/year) that gives me unlimited feeds. I think you can get a free account with up to 64 feeds. They support web, iOS and Android (although I've only ever used the web version).
So, would this mean that Tesla would be open to a cottage industry where anyone could start a company building a different body type on top of their drivetrain?

More specifically - could you just buy the S chassis/drivetrain from tesla and build say a delivery van body on top of it?
Just a note: you can't really donate specifically to LibreSSL. LibreSSL is part of the OpenBSD source tree (libssl), so you donate to the OpenBSD Foundation as a whole. You can specify that you'd like the money to go to X project, but it's ultimately their choice to respect that or not.
The easiest way to avoid the human factor is to get a scapegoat. You make it seem like someone else is responsible for, or knows about, the crypto or its data payload. They will then torture that individual indefinitely until they confess to something. It's better if they don't know you or anything about your scheme as that way it'll look like they're holding out a really long time on important information.

Then the only thing you need to worry about is that person dying, in which case the investigation continues. So similar to upping the number of rounds on PBKDF2 every year, you need a new scapegoat every year, or however long it takes them to break either the crypto or the scapegoat.
The search is also terrible, eg Spotify does not understand the semantics of composer vs performance, so although it has a lot it is very hard to find.
As human ancestors became more adept at tool usage, one would expect any evolved skull defenses to crumble.

No amount of skull reinforcement will stand up to a solid strike from a club. And even if it did, it wouldn't matter - our huge brains concuss easily, meaning that even if the bone structure itself remained intact following a club blow, the brain it protects would be quite damaged.

Human weapon use has been discussed as one reason why humans are less sexually dominant than many other primate relatives. Beta chimps don't have the ability to easily murder the reigning alpha chimp in his sleep. Humans do.

> Ember's examples on their site are always the simplest use-case.

This is really key. Even extremely common patterns that will be present in virtually every web app have no examples that I can find anywhere on the web. A great example is simple nested resources, where the URL is something like `/tv_shows/555/seasons/3/episodes/2`. Obviously, this is the page that displays info about episode 2 of season 3 of the TV show with id 555. So how do I reference the tv_show model (which I will almost certainly need to do) from the `EpisodesIndexController` or the `episodes/index` template? Do I really have to specify `needs` [0] on every controller nested under `TvShowsController`, and perhaps add a `setupController` hook to make the property easily accessible like in this tutorial [1]?

Granted, I'm pretty new to this, so maybe I'm just missing the obvious way to do this sort of thing clearly.

The proper solution would be just like you describe but without the part where you give the browser your information - the browser can remember more than you do, and it can create usernames that are random and thus unrelated between different sites; it can create proper single-purpose email addresses - again, not giving the site any ability to spam you but not a throwaway as if you really need an email from them, then that address is accessible.

I.e., solve the 'identity problem' by removing the identity core; your client software should be able to create fake identities for you on the go, and preferably with less than one click - automatically without prompting.

If bicycles are rare, you are still much more likely to be seen and avoided if you are where cars expect a car to be, then if you are where cars expect nothing to be.

Of course, there are still situations where riding in the street - either in a bike lane or taking the lane - is dangerous or otherwise impractical; the question is whether riding on the sidewalk is an improvement, or whether you should be forgoing cycling (perhaps walking your bike).
Yes, the exercise-sleep connection is important for me as well. I mustn't exercise in the evening though because it gets me in that "thrill" mode where I'm wide awake (it feels like the only time actually when I feel awake..) morning or noon sessions work best for me. I'm self-employed so that is one of the benefits of having an unstructured work day, which apart from that I guess is dangerous for someone having ADHD like myself...

I've been on a vegetarian diet for about 10 years and it helps me with attaining more of an "inner calm" / reducing my constant inner agitation but that wasn't the reason why I picked it up originally - it's just a very welcome side effect for me. I could definitely improve on the health side especially when I get the blues, like I've been having for the last couple of months - I tend to binge excessively on sweets (which for me is worse than being on too much coffee in terms of ADHD symptoms) and processed junk food. I feel really great on low GI foods, so usually I eat lots of beans, fruits and vegetables. I also try to take my vitamin b12 supplements as well as my ground flax seeds regularly (omega 3) and have some organic eggs or cheese now and then. I've been on half-year long, strictly vegan diets twice over the years but ran into health issues (iron, vitamin b12 deficiencies -> anemic) each time probably because my discipline and knowledge were limited then.

I feel there is so much chance involved with picking up the right habits - e.g. if it weren't for Vibram's Five Fingers (I know they are not as healthy as they were advertised but I simply love the feeling of running "barefoot") and all the quantified self apps on smartphones I probably wouldn't be running today. It's all the little things that keep me motivated.

As a person without color-blindness, but is interested in making it easier for people with: there are a lot of different varieties of color blindness. Obviously you can (and usually should) do things like "use different brightnesses", but it seems to me that this is more solvable by e.g. an OS-level color filter. Something that allows you to compress colors into the range you can see.

Would that be even remotely useful? Are there major problems that I'm not seeing? Is that why I don't see OSes with features like that?
I'd expect this to be possibly useful for diabetics. I don't expect this to be useful for detecting allergens, because I don't expect it to have small enough detection thresholds.
One always has to take these surveys with a pinch of salt.

Wow. I thought of etcd as taking consistency very seriously. Aphyr's discoveries are indeed quite surprising: "The very first test I ran with reported a linearizability failure.

Doing X number of release back doesn't seem work to me, at least for something like OpenSSL that's often embedded in devices and other software. That is unless the release is on a fixed schedule like Ubuntu or OpenBSD.

Maybe do like Ubuntu. You can have a long term support version, or you can use the latest and greatest, but it will be supported for a much shorter period of time.

In any case I think they should focus on predictability, that is do a major release at fixed times. If something isn't ready at that point: Tough, it has to wait until the next release. OpenSSL isn't a company of cause, so they don't need to please their user, but it would be an easier sell if I knew the the time frame in which I can expect support and updates for a given version.
It's pretty tough to make a tutorial for literally everyone. Heck, some people use CoffeeScript and some use JavaScript, and any of them might be upset if your tutorial uses the other.

If someone wrote a plain Ember tutorial that just assumed the backend API already existed, just as many people might make the complaint "if you already have a backend, I'm sure this tutorial is just great, but for the rest of us..."
