This is a BS, extremely naive argument in favor of bitcoin.

For one, you can very much have the same happen to any bitcoin user, using their personal details online in such sites.
>They're a pretty easy target as the architecture of Windows is incredibly complicated and they're playing plug the holes rather than designing it properly to start with. For ref, I know the NT kernel, win32 and CLR inside out and no longer would I poke it with a stick.

Not sure what you mean by that. Does Linux have any protections beyond Windows to stop malware? Why does Android have a malware problem?

This is the text of a post I made yesterday in reply to a similar comment:

How can they patch it in their product without turning desktop Windows into something like iOS or Windows Phone/RT?
Even Android has a ton of malware so the notion that Windows is somehow more hole ridden than other platforms stopped being true starting about 10 years ago with their Secure computing initiative. If the user can install Firefox, they can install malware.

If Firefox doesn't need to get permission from MS for their next version, Windows cannot distinguish between Firefox.exe and Codec_Flash_Shady.exe. Sandboxing will disable system level utilities.

MS is capable of making secure OSes. How many viruses and trojans do the 3 Xboxes, Windows Phone and RT have? Even Windows Server is pretty secure(atleast as secure as Linux) unless the admins start browsing on it. Malware is a real threat to any popular OS unless third party apps are entirely blocked or restricted by the use of a approval based App Store. Windows gives much more control to the user, which is why many users are able to stay away from infections.

And it's ironic that you're blaming MS here instead of the folks that propagate it(including a YC company https://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130115/17343321692/why-a...) and people who install it(users).

Remember the shitstorm that was raised against MS on here and elsewhere when they tried to secure users by preventing undetectable rootkits by enabling Secure Boot?
Managing EC2 instances is becoming like filing taxes. Soon you will need EC2_Instance_Advisors for your company needs.
I'd like to see that on a global TLD. If you mean that any arbitrary country can seize a TLD belonging to that country, then yeah I guess you are right. You can always get a distributed TLD but then you have the problem of them not being resolvable unless the PC you are at is correctly configured.
It's not proper food preparation, it's fancy food preparation.

You can cook tasty, nutritious food over an open fire in a field. For generations, that's how it was done. In fact, the best gumbo I've ever eaten was cooked over an untreated scrap lumber fire in a spillway behind a construction site.

To make it fancy, you need all this nonsense.

bad things tend to come up at the same. its the nature of things but you should do your best to distinguish between the two.

I guess you are not seeking advice here on HN on how to cope with your gf relationship - this issue (painful as it is) has nothing to do with your startup failure. So, one issue shouldnt cloud the other.

I guess that your startup failure still has value. A lot of other entrepreneurs are always keen to learn of other people's experience, so worst case your experience can turn into a blog that can lead to new followers, ideas etc..

In any case, things tend to work out in the end :) dont forget that 90% of startups fail and everyone knows that its not like you experienced something that should make you lose belief in yourself!
Do you know the one common thing between Google, Linkedin and Twitter?
Their original role was to help farmers hedge their risk of bad harvests by setting a fixed price for future delivery of foodstuffs.

Not quite they were also to allow downstream businesses to fix their inventory costs, that would be the hedgers that you allude to. That is the original purpose of a futures market to allow both the suppliers and consumers to hedge risk.

Initially futures markets were restricted to individuals and businesses that dealt in the product covered by the futures contract, but over the years 'speculators': actors who at no point want to accept a delivery of the product managed to get themselves into the system. Speculators are simply middlemen between the actual producers and actual consumers of the futures product. They do not add value to the system, literally the last thing in the world they want to happen is to actually have two containers of pork bellies turn up at their door step.

Futures markets work absolutely fine without speculators as their is intrinsic value in a futures market for both producers and consumers without a revolving cavalcade of middlemen getting in the way of settling contracts.
OpenSSL Project Roadmap
If you and I both start a business, but you set yours up so all the producer surplus goes to yourself as the sole shareholder, and I set mine up so all the producer surplus goes to myself as the main employee, why should I be able to claim non-profit status?
actually they manipulate the flow of cars to the smaller roads by making u wait on the offramp longer when its busy iirc, after watching a few docu's on the engineering i think theyre engineers are really good and bright
What I read from this whole thing, is that Microsoft wants to privately monitor some of the subdomains. This makes me believe they aren't mainly interested in malware but in legitimate though "illegal" traffic. Be safe out there hacktivists

For better or worse MRB there are literally millions of cards stolen and compromised each year. And the biggest inconvenience 99% of these people suffer is waiting 4 days for a new one in the mail and having to remember to update their various subscriptions. So there might always be a horror story or two like the above but it's not really an effective rebuttal against the main point which is credit card fraud is not borne by the individual.
Facebook treats you like a lab rat
Courts never contact anyone. It is normally up to the Plaintiff to "Serve" the defendant. Except when the Plaintiff seeks an ex parte motion,order,etc which allows to court to act with out contacting the defendant.

Further if this would have been a situation where contact was attempted and failed it would have been a "default" judgment/order not ex parte
Facebook shows page owners metrics like that. 46% of Facebook is "female", while 54% is male. They don't show an "other" option in the admin section, though I think they have that option in profile settings.

SEEKING WORK - Remote or Toronto

I am a full-stack web developer and have been freelancing for a couple years now -- previously I was the CTO/cofounder of an acquired startup, and I have more than a decade of professional development experience under my belt.

I am looking for contract/freelance work and currently have ~20 hours per week of availability. I frequently work with US and other international companies (with site visits if necessary).

My preferred weapon of choice is Ruby on Rails and its associated stack -- I've been working with Rails for 8 years, so I know the entire stack and ecosystem backwards and forwards. Other alphabet soup: Coffeescript, jQuery, Heroku, AWS, Ubuntu, Vagrant, etc.

"We have no plans to appeal their decision."

It's a shame. That kind of stupidity, shown by IRS, deserves to be penalized.
With seemingly more emphasis being placed on complex pub-sub architectures, has there been any equivalent development of tooling to assist in visualizing/grokking an existing pub-sub application? In my experience at least, pub-sub architecture can be difficult to follow without good tooling (trying to keep all of these coexisting streams in your head when making changes, as asynchronous code is difficult to write a test suite for that could catch mistakes). This is somewhat just the nature of asynchronous programming, but there has been more and more emphasis on that as well with the popularity of highly responsive GUI applications and more computing capacity for background tasks.

Aside from using Visual Studio-esque "find references" to navigate to all of the locations in a codebase where a particular event stream is subscribed to, I've yet to come across much.
Yeah but the other night I stopped at a Mexican food truck and was without cash. They didn't have Square or anything. I drove 3 blocks to the ATM only to buy something next to the ATM vs go back. So for my family of 4 I put $50 into one store vs the food truck. So a $50 lost sale is a lot of 2-3% to make up by not accepting cards at all.
Yes, it's a big language, but the complexity is at least justifiable, and generally comprehensible.

C++ gives you immense power and a huge range of functionality to choose from, and some of the complexity arises from this. It has a very long history, which also contributes to the complexity. And it's first and foremost a pragmatic language, which of course brings in some complexity in order to deal with the inherent complexity of reality.

If something is seen as "complex" in C++, there's usually a good, or at least understandable, reason for this. You can usually find technical documents or discussion that justify why things are they way that they are, and the reasoning is usually quite sound. And in many cases, it's possible to safely ignore or just not use large portions of the complexity that C++ offers without facing any sort of a penalty or harm.

It's very different from the complexity that languages like JavaScript or PHP bring. The complexity there is usually unjustifiable, and often due to very rushed work, a lack of understanding and poor design, or a lack of care and consistency. They suffer from serious flaws and complexity that were not justified when introduced, and were subsequently not cleaned up or fixed once recognized. They suffer from harmful complexity, while C++ offers beneficial complexity.
