The only problems are when your boss doesn't pay attention and recognize the step up, or when they actively ignore it because you've taken some of the stress of their job and they are averse to potential change/risk if they promote you.

I was going to make a similar post suggesting Google/Android. It's one class of business risk avoided.
We were also a little put off by the "it's not food" hyperbole, which is why we made MealSquares. I think it will be appealing to a lot of people who like the concept of Soylent but not the execution.
Have you ever blogged about your personal wiki or knowledge management as you say in the other comment? I am interested in knowing more about for my personal needs. What kind of information do you store in your org-mode like journals, goals, projects - personal or work related, quick notes, etc.? Do you use Emacs GUI or in terminal?

It's not only about free speech. Different cultural, social and economic conditions mean different countries live by different laws.

I don't know the circumstances of the case, but it seems plausible that given an opportunity a German, Emirati, Chinese or Brazilian court may reach a different conclusion as to the legality of Morgan Jack's business. Countries are known to have very different labor and copyright laws. It's plausible that some circumstances (e.g. mistreatment, authorship, limitations on copyright transferability, nuances and even legality of the contract the parties had entered) could make courts elsewhere consider Morgan Jack to be the rightful owner of the design.

What if such a court elsewhere made a contradictory ruling and also demanded from Google that it be enforced worldwide?

I actually find the "no end in sight" aspect of BW work to be really helpful: I don't have to worry about what happens when I "run out" of exercises, there will always be another progression: Pullups are getting too easy? Try one-arm pullups. Pushups getting too easy? Work on handstand pushups.

etc. etc.

The important thing is to ensure that you feel like you're making progress on each workout: Adding reps, moving to a harder version, or just improving form. Stagnating is an absolute killer.
It's not ideal, but if you look at how chickens are usually farmed, it's in the dark, in wire cages stacked on top of each other this is much better! Battery cages are completely unsanitary, the birds are covered in shit the whole time and can easily get injured, and much more stressful than this.
Tangentially: I am interested in sponsoring an open source (Apache License) implementation of BPF bytecode in DynASM (or LuaJIT). The use case is to execute packet filters compiled by libpcap. Ideally we'd win shootouts (like http://carnivore.it/2011/12/28/bpf_performance).

Thanks for the link. I was in Iraq when Task Force kicked down the door and found this stuff. Didn't realize it was declassified. An amazing example of incompetence and under estimating your enemy. Don't bother encrypting your video feeds?!? Oh, they'll never figure it out. I often joke that the U.S. Military is just slightly less incompetent than everyone else. Stuff like this makes me laugh at conspiracy theorists who postulate that the U.S. Government was responsible for 9/11. We can't even have the default setting for secret video feeds in a war zone be encrypted, but we can organize a massive conspiracy. Spend a day in an organization where you're hoping the decisions of your superiors don't get you killed and you quickly realize the omnipotent puppet master is no where to be found.

<blockquote>Well, we’re three decades into an era of systemic deregulation and financialization. The result? Global recession, lingering structural unemployment, and an accumulation of capital at the top of the economic pyramid.</blockquote>

To blame systemic deregulation for the recession is to be profoundly unaware of the system in question. One cannot speak of a free market when the very thing at the core of that market - i.e. money, the one thing that everyone buys when they're selling something, and that everyone sells when they're buying something - is in the hands of a monopoly, and a politically motivated one at that: its raison d'etre is not even the quality of the product it provides.

If money were edible, you would see much more clearly just what a centrally managed, soviet style style system this really is, because there'd be queues of starving citizens just as we saw back in the era of soviet resource management.

If anything, it could be argued that without the level of free market we've enjoyed, things would be much, much worse. After all, the one sector where there's been close to zero regulation, the internet, has been the sector that's enjoyed massive growth over the last few decades. Compared to the days when telephony was state managed and nothing worked, we've been progressing in seven league boots, thanks to the free market.

PS: how does one quote on HN?
OK, but if the "offender" in this case a) spoke inappropriately to someone they believed was underage and then b) arranged a time and place to meet them, that would count, no?
Populous was a blockbuster game and it predates both Warcraft and Diablo by half a decade (released 1989), so it is indeed a striking omission. It's also the first game I can remember that used the concept by that name.

I hadn't heard about this before today and doing a bit of research it sounds like something that has been going on for years - since at least 2007 - and there has been some really dodgy practice. (But I still don't see why Google is targeted here).

And it seems that Datalink have made some effort to clarify the situation: http://1770-kf3.com/

What would be the point in paying them, even after being paid they still hold all the cards.
I'm guessing the same as for print (600-1200dpi). The oculus rift guys seem to think, even a little higher:

"“If we want the “perfect” Oculus Rift, with 180 degrees FOV and an APD of 45, we’ll need a screen with a resolution of 8000 x 4500″ This matches up very well with Luckey’s comment of 8K per eye. Using a PPI calculator, a 7″ screen with resolution of 8000 x 4500 would require 1311 PPI."

The most common meats (chicken, beef, pork) in the Netherlands that can be bought in supermarkets (AH, C1000 and etc) is indeed of low quality.

It's still better than in the US, but if you compare it to meat from Italy, Spain, France it's extremely bad.
Well, it may seem positive, but here in the inferior south, that photos could destroy the day of many (sub)people.

We prefer animals and tomatoes not grow in those conditions shown in the photos (we get them, at the same prices, but grow with space and natural food).

I don't know why the article does not talk about the technologies used to modify vegetables and animals. I don't care if they don't get antibiotics, while they are transgenics, clones, or grow with irradiation and other technologies.

Also sorry and excuses to those offended downvoters, I can probe each word, I said them with care of not let me go, but I could go on, if somebody clarify the disagreement

Just as an aside, I don't think ePub3 is going anywhere. Last time I looked it was an unholy mess and likely to remain so.

As less of an aside, I think CC sharing and direct crowdfunding is the way things will go for creators.

The only thing labels and distributors bring to the table for artists is public access, sponsorship, and promotion. A public creative network would bypass the first, support direct funding for the second, and promotion would become by fans for fans.

I see no bad here - and if it means an end-run around the monopsonies and the death of the ad networks, even better.
>I literally work to pay for rent and food. Sorry if this bums you out.

You spend a third of your life working, if you're only doing it for the money then I feel you're quite literally wasting your life. It doesn't particularly "bum me out", but I do feel sorry for people like you.
Justice systems the world over have been itching for a way to force this whole interweb thing to fall in line for more than a decade, but they couldn't find a solid-enough target in a quickly-changing landscape. Now that things have matured, they are going after the big established players: Google for search/advertising, Facebook for social activity, Twitter for censorship/regulated speech, Amazon for commerce, Youtube for copyright. It will happen more and more and there is no way around it. The classic cyberpunk countermeasure of finding a friendly nation to hide behind just doesn't work in the long run, as Sweden has proven with the PirateBay case.

It might be an unpopular opinion here, but I believe the rise of a global network will inevitably force the rise of a global government. A higher authority is now necessary to sort out this sort of problems in a consistent way. It's the natural evolution we've seen in the past when trade and knowledge networks reached a dimension where differences in legislation made it too difficult for them to flow. The question is: how do we define this global government? Which interests will it represent in practice? I think it's something we should embrace, because otherwise we will be forced to accept it at the point of a non-metaphorical gun.

lucky thing that most YouTube music videos are blocked in Germany. i won't feel a thing.

otherwise, this looks an awful lot like another forced bundling by Google, like the way they're showing Google+ down everyone's throats. (I recently caved to that one, and reopened my Google+ simply to be able to login to sites where I was using my google login for authentication. they chose to take away that ability if you don't use G+, along with the ability to use the mobile hangout app, just because they can. i should move elsewhere.) now they're capitalizing on the market share of YouTube to coerce small labels, while large labels were reportedly given preferential treatment. but the fact that they will abuse YouTube instead of simply opening a new, independent service, and trying to win over customers to it, instead of forcing them over, that part stings me.
You would have to think that ceasing to do business in BC would be an option competitive with accepting rulings like this in the future.

I never understood why they went with such design when they have proper aircraft designs to evolve. Watch the russians: they've evolved the SU models over the years proving that it is better than create something from 0 again. Su-27, Su-30, Su-37 all of them are far more polyvalent than the F-35 and the F-22.

At work, I get a lot of heat for being the one and only guy who is never around on the seat. It's turned into a favourite joke on me with a number of people. Despite that, I don't mind it one bit -- in fact, I joke about it myself. I have made it a point not to sit on a chair in front of a computer continuously. I take breaks quite often. I stand up and work/read. I roam around the office, spend time with people from other departments, discussing things, solving issues, etc. I learned early on how detrimental a geek's profession is to their health and body. Not only your eyes, wrists, and your back, but your entire body is at risk. As we read so often, our bodies were never made to be forced to remain in a sitting posture for a considerable length of time. Obviously, it didn't descend on me from nowhere. I learned the value of proper ergonomics and proper health management the hard way. Bad eye-sight, headache, migraines, yadda yadda. But I'm glad I learned it before things got out of hand.

I also try and follow a 7-minute workout routine every morning. Apart from that, I'm an active tennis player -- although, after having joined a work-from-office job (since a year), I've been getting less time to be on the courts than I'd like.
> Just think about it. We endanger the most important scientific advancement in human health for cheaper bacon.

Because that's what the consumer wants. Apparently. Supermarkets have been competing with each other on prices for ages, a well-known example is chicken fillet. The price has gone down to just E3 per kilo at one point, which caused a bit of a riot because those were the famous 'plofkip' (exploding chicken), or chickens that were forced to grow as large as possible in as little time as possible.

But there's the other side, too; farms like the one described in the opening post can thank their existence over an increase in demand for 'organic' meat, or meat that gets a label indicating it was grown in an animal-friendly fashion without use of antibiotics and growth hormone. Conscious consumers with a decent income will be more inclined to pay a premium for that kind of meat.
I expect at least in the medium term it will look more like a global (or at least multilateral) treaty, rather than a global government. But I agree that now is the time to think about how we could like such a thing to be structured. As much as some people would like it to be, the internet can't be the new wild west forever. It will be regulated. The hope is to have it regulated in a fair, consistent, and manageable (minimal?) manner.

As a web-based business owner, I find the prospect of having to comply with an increasing list of obscure regulations from various different entities rather overwhelming. Something comprehensive could be a relief, if it's done right. (Of course, there will still be differences between countries, but perhaps an overarching treaty could at least limit their impact.)

Air-to-air combat on today's conditions aren't close combat at all (as Hollywood might want you to believe). Most pilots won't even see their target being taken down by a missile with a 30kms range. By the time a dogfight takes place, most of the aircrafts have been taken down by missiles.

Such precautions remind me of the 'mad cow disease' outbreak some years ago in the UK and Netherlands; not a bad approach, really. You're trying to chuck tens of thousands of animals on as small an area as possible (NL isn't too large after all), just like people that's a huge hygiene and potential disease outbreak risk. It's one way to deal with overpopulation.
I would argue the opposite with so much money on at your finger tips you are more prone to bad decisions because you are not invested enough in the outcome.

Yeah, these chickens are healthy, they might even be happy there. They could do a lot worse. If someone really doesn't like the idea of broiler farm chickens, they can pay a little extra for free range chickens. Or pay even more to buy them off a local farmer. Or just switch to something else entirely, there are plenty of alternatives available today.
