You also have to consider the opposite side of the coin- you should be interviewing them as much as they are you. The VP's responses should have been a red flag to you. Not just because of the fact that he apparently hadn't heard of the debate over open floor plans over the decades, but mostly due to the fact he seemingly punished you for speaking out. Typically, not fun people to work for.

And yes I'm fully aware that sometimes you're in a positions of "I need a job and can't be too picky". I hope you were in a better position than that and had the opportunity to turn them down. If not, I'd be curious how it turned out.
Well if we are going to play the PC game with trademarks may I suggest we start heading down the road of renaming all public schools that offend people; actually we are in places; renaming towns with offensive name, removing offensive slogans some towns may have, and so on and so on. Indian style names are quite abundant across this country and I am sure even some we think as inoffensive can be found otherwise if we ask the right people.

In the name of fairness we might just result to numeric designations.

Structs and ImmutableStructs
You don't need super-human chip designers because, as you say, "the difficulty of containment is proportional to the interface that is available". Hardware doesn't just seem better because "the syscall interfaces of commonly used operating systems are much larger than what the hardware offers", it is better. It is easier to analyse, has a more limited state-space, has more provable behavior, etc.

You can't just argue away the fact that a certain class of error has been all but eliminated by hardware-supported virtual memory. Multi-tasking as we know it today would basically be impossible without it. The reliability of "just get it right" systems like the early Macintosh isn't even comparable to, for example, a modern Linux machine that uses the chip to trap large classes of erroneous memory accesses.

Given that we have the above, a case of a class of error that programmers seemed unable to eliminate (practically) eliminated, I'm not really sure what you're arguing. Are you saying that hardware designers of the 80's were superhuman?

"So the people at the mercy of Negative SEO are the people least equipped to defend themselves: small hobby site owners, webmasters with personal blogs, small businesses etc."

There is an "official" FIFA API that includes all that info, but the legality of building your own app with it is unclear to me, and it seems largely undocumented.

The activities that you've described seem quite basic: either something that any amateur can do by following a todo list, if the CMS doesn't take care of that anyway (prompt for alt tags, have sane URLs as default etc.).

While the SEO industry might be doing that also, that seems to be a fig leave for the actual activities.

Or is anyone making a living being the caretaker of the web, cleaning up 404s?
You seem to have a specific view of what it means to be 'god', or the 'son of god', and are judging all religion through this lens.

The Quakers, for example hold that 'there is that of god in everyone'

Many forms of tantric Hinduism hold that the ultimate state of being is realizing one's unity with god.

The Sufi's (and some parts of non fundamentalist Islam) claim that one's experience of god is personal and cannot come through an intermediary.

What these ideas have in common is that god is not placed outside the human, but is an inner experience of the human, or a stage of development that can be reached.

What could be more humanist than the idea that humans are or can be in direct contact with the ultimate reality?

How to start with Python and some useful resources
The elections being discussed are performed over the internet, on the voters own computer. Where would the paper audit log be created, and how would you ensure it accurately reflects what the voter chose on his (possibly compromised) PC?

Edit: See the answer by user relix in this thread. This system does not solve the two issues I raised. As with all of these systems, they have to choose between "secure (verifiable) ballot" and "secret ballot". Estonia has clearly chosen the former.

The problem with that is that now people can be pressured to vote in certain ways, as they can prove after the fact how they voted. This has not been a big problem in first world countries for a long time - but I don't think that's because people have fundamentally changed, but rather that nobody tries it because the paper ballot system effectively stops such voter intimidation/manipulation.
Why You Are Wrong
Threads like these are valuable research for me. We talk about being understanding of mental illness; of the need to destigmatise mental health problems to allow people to seek help and so on.

But then a thread like this will pop up. There are many useful, sincere, posts with really good advice. And then there are a few bafflingly bad, almost hateful, confused, ignorant (almost to the point of bigotry) posts.

These threads certainly help me understand why people do not disclose mental health problems to employers.

This is a rather arrogant comment. Why assume that everyone fits the same niche as you? I once ran a site/blog where I blogged about a particular disease that I have and all of the research I did as I tried to understand it. This means that my content was typically found by people who have just come down with this disease and turn to google to search for information. I did not have a relationship with these readers prior to them getting this disease.

There is no clear line between what is under Title-II and Title-I of the Communications Act. If there was, then FCC would not have the question put to them, and they could not decide it.

To a large degree, its up to the discretion of FCC to decide what is and what isn't Title-II. FCC could defeine ISP as utility, and there would be no obligation to define video streaming as utility too.

Cicconi could argue that FCC should not have the power to do this but is choosing not to do so. Rather, he is trying to argue a slipper slope argument. I wonder if this is for political reasons, in order to not challenge the authority of FCC while they are deciding on the issue.
Just tried slingshot for a day and absolutely hate it. Never thought facebook is capable of fart apps.

What am I supposed to send them when I don't even know what their sling is about?

What results is a cycle of useless pictures taken just to unlock pictures. wtf?

I'd suggest downloading it and playing with it just to learn from this uniquely frustrating experience.
"We get it, you don't like SEOs, but these changes clearly hurt innocent people who know little or nothing about SEO."

>But when you started blogging you did not have any visitors at all, you must have done it for some other reason.

Or maybe they expected that if they blogged, they would get visitors? It's pretty well known that if you put good stuff on the internet, people will find it, including through google.

>And when you have 1200 visitors (say a year from now) per day and you lose half your visitors per day (because they are search engine traffic) and you're back to 600 you could still argue that you lost your motivation.

Yes, it's always true that it hurts to lose a source of traffic. I don't follow your point.

>How many visitors come to your site is just a number. What you get out of th engagement is the key imo, and in that sense 50 people that you engage with are worth 500 that just visit and look at what you write.

This is true, but you seem to be assuming that google visitors are less engaged. Why? My time on site is highest for organic search traffic.
Great job. I have my own mongodb of the games/scores that I update manually (not in real time though).

I would love to see something automated like this for the major leagues (La Liga, BPL, Bundesliga, Serie A). I tried my hand at scraping the HTML of different sites, but found out that the main ones guard against that by changing their HTML periodically, so I gave up.

Side question: what does HN think in general about scraping data from HTML? There are websites that charge for live sports data, and scraping them seems borderline unethical.

As a Google _user_ I care a lot about this issue.

I wholehearted agree with you, "I don't think you should put any artificial restrictions on what you should work on"

I'm just disappointed with Facebook. They have so much resources and the ability to make such a difference but they chose to make this crap.
The solution isn't to make linking illegal - it's for Google to stop the penalizing and just simply not count the links they don't like. Penalize for on-site stuff, just ignore the off site stuff.

I realize they want to take away the incentive for spammers, but let's shift the burden of finding a better way to do that onto them instead of changing the laws about how the web works.

I'm really shocked by your naive arrogance in this thread. You can't see beyond your own niche and use case. There is an enormous space of good content where the best method of finding that content is searching the internet, not having a previous relationship with a client/customer. In an earlier comment I gave one of many examples, medical conditions that people don't care about until they get it, and at that point they turn to google to search for information.

Google is effectively a monopoly on this front, and at some level should have an obligation to the common good.
This sucks, but it's also a great case study for future review.

What about after you give them money and they look down at their hand like "WTF? That's it?" and walk away disgusted (or just stare at you)? Do you judge then?

I'm not making this up to be combative. I use to carry a bunch of coins in a quickly accessible pocket just to give to anyone who asks because I hate having to internally debate it every time.

I disagree with your second statement. If I run a gas station along a heavily trafficked street, is that a mistake? I have one source of customer; people aren't going to be loyal to my services enough to drive for them. If the traffic on the street lessens, I can lose business.

It doesn't mean it's a bad idea to buy or build the gas station there.

Well, one of the big lessons of running an internet-based business (or any business, really) is "don't build your business on top of third-party services that you have no contract with or control over."

As you've seen, you can have the rug swept out from under you overnight and there's nothing you can do about it. That's why people are so dismissive of SEO, it (mostly) doesn't create actual value and it's subject to the whims of Google. Your parents fell into that trap.

As jacques said, "the most solid way to grow a business is to find your customers through references and to keep them happy." The old-fashioned way never fails. Get out there and make some people so happy they want to tell all their friends.

> I get huge value out of being right beside the people that can answer the questions I have

As someone who -- in my workplace -- is more often than not on the receiving end of questions or calls for help, I find it extremely distracting. There have been entire days where I wasn't able to focus on my own work because everyone else had questions to answer, or bugs that they needed help working through. I can't fault them for asking for help, but I definitely get frustrated at the situation, because sometimes at the end of the day I end up feeling like I haven't accomplished anything.

That might be true in some cases but there's an entire industry built around renting open-plan workspaces to solo founders and freelancers who freely choose to spend an extra $5000 per year and an hour's commute time each day because they feel an "office environment" surrounded by other busy professionals focuses their mind better than the serene quiet of their bedside desk.

> I hope this is not a case of pseudoscientific superstition

There is science behind it, although accommodations should be made for those who are allergic or have phobias.

"There is plenty of research to show that this isn’t just another shaggy dog tale. Studies going back to the early 1980s support the idea that dogs—and other pets—have enormous health benefits for people. Pets have been shown to lower blood pressure, improve recovery from heart disease, and even reduce rates of asthma and allergy in children who grow up with a Fido or a Frisky in the house. Pets also improve people’s psychological well-being and self-esteem."

Changing cities, changing the people i was hanging out/living with (i was not enjoying their company) helped me a lot. I was "hanging out" with them, because i was living with them. Packed all my bag(s) and headed out.

I could also see this as the company giving the worker an easy out based on the concerns they expressed about the open office - there is no worry about waiting for the "right time" to quit if you're not happy with the new position when the "right time" comes in the form of the end of a contract period before full employment.

You have a different opinion than the one of the authors, and you're entitled to it. It's not nice to attack someone who has a different opinion, though, especially when it's about a piece of software that they developed, and offered free of use for many years. Their opinion may be more informed than yours, but it's at least as informed as yours.
Interesting. Never even considered the eye contact thing. Ours is open plan but you're always looking at a partition or out the window. That makes it a bit more bearable.
I am currently poor (for an American). I do not really buy cheap food. Good quality food is my single biggest expense. It keeps me out of the ER (where I am supposed to practically live, given my medical condition). I do this even though I routinely run short on funds at the end of the month and this sometimes means fasting for a day or so or simply being short-rationed the last week. Going hungry part of the time harms my health less than eating crap all of the time.

People are people first and foremost and their current economic/social class is not the only determiner of their lifestyle choices.
