Also: Local support. For example, Colombia have a HUGE support in the stadium, they say are playing as a local all the time.

Plus: History against X. If a team have played against another a lot of times it build some model in how perform. Latin america teams know more about each others than teams abroad.

I see in this model not much discussion in how latin-teams have the upper hand here: The climate, the people, the shared-history, the kind of game, etc

Dart -- without being in Chrome -- has the same userbase as CoffeeScript, ClojureScript, or any other language that also compiles to JavaScript.

There are some real potential wins with being in Chrome, many of which are political, but there are no technical reasons for not being in Chrome to block Dart's adoption.

A step toward government transparency
Please tell me that there's a short story on this. I'm envisioning a cigar-chomping developer trying to lobby for building on "prime real estate" while some nutball hippie lawyer is working tirelessly to stop him while his colleagues deride him for caring so much about "carbon-based animals."

"Well, we've done it billions of times before. What makes these ones any different?"

"It was wrong the last billions of times we did it, too."

"Well, you're living on a planet that was taken from some lesser species. And so was the planet your forefathers settled on. And them before that, and them before that. This is the natural course of things. Sucks to be them."

I'd read that.
Aw, you're right. I didn't read closely enough to understand their model.

It's important to understand that this isn't just "Gnome 2," but actually full Gnome 3 underneath with all the benefits that contains. That's why just continuing with Gnome 2 was a non-starter.

What gave you that idea? There's no police investigation ongoing in Japan, or anywhere else for that matter. Karpeles is looking at Japanese bankruptcy proceedings, he is not facing criminal charges. He was invited to testify in Texas in light of probable criminal wrongdoing, but he turned down the offer. The only major "investigation" of Karpeles is happening on Reddit and HN.

First, congrats. Having real revenue probably puts you in the top 5% of startups already. Great work.

- Incorporate. You want the legal protection of (at least) an LLC.

- Really think about if you need to raise money. If you do, it should be easy to raise $100k-$200k with real revenue and traction. But it sounds like you're in a position where you could actually bootstrap this. Equity is expensive. Think twice before raising money.

- Think in terms of milestones. What can you do to get to $XX,XXX in revenue per [week,month,year]. Then, what can you do to launch at an additional school while still staying cash-flow positive? This sort of thinking breaks the process into bit-sized chunks. Much easier to digest.

- Your biggest problem will likely be scaling the ad sales efforts. Walking into local businesses works great for 1, 2, 3 schools. But it will be hard to scale that to 100 universities.

I'd love to help out in any way I can. I started a company in grad school that I sold last year. I've been through many of these issues before. mkijewski at g mail.

More modular? I think how modular it is, is one of Django's greatest strengths. Don't like django's templating? You can be up and running with jinja2 in less than 20 lines. Don't like Django's user model? Substitute your own, or if you just need a different auth backend, write your own. Have a desire to use a less common DB? Write a db backend. As far as trashing the ORM for SQLAlchemy, there are a number of django packages that aim to do just that.

There is a small number of ways I could imagine Django being MORE modular.
AFAIK this problem is endemic to any job processing system where jobs can take more than N seconds to process. What Heroku does:

* Heroku sends the TERM signal.
* The process has 10 seconds to exit itself.
* After 10 seconds, the KILL signal is sent to terminate the process without notice.

Sidekiq does this:

* Upon TERM, the job fetcher thread is halted immediately so no more work is started.
* Sidekiq waits 8 seconds for any busy Processors to finish their job.
* After 8 seconds, Sidekiq::Shutdown is raised on each busy Processor. The corresponding jobs are pushed back to Redis so they can be restarted later. This must be done within 2 seconds.
* Sidekiq exits or is KILLed.
It's clear they are putting everything into Photos and so this makes sense. Big question is what they do with all the edits/metadata/etc that people have invested in Aperture.

I hope I'm not hijacking this thread in any way by posting a link to my Wikipedia redesign attempt. It's not actual code - just a visual mock-up. I posted it a while ago to Hacker News but would love to hear feedback

This is really insightful and not something I'd realized even though, for example, my own reading and music tastes encompass an increasingly long timespan.
I don't think I'm offering resolutions. I'm saying that we have far too limited amounts of information to resolve things in one direction or the other.

(On the Mayan aside, I guess I do agree that there will be some basis for getting information from a returned probe, but after millions of years I doubt the home civilization will even remember that they were the ones who sent the probes out to begin with. I guess to be more precise, I expect that the home civ will have been replaced by new civs many times over.)

On the probe side, if they return to home there's also no reason to expect them to signal, and seeing one would be unlikely considering we can barely even find asteroids that pose a risk of collision with Earth. So I guess there's also some possibility that there are alien probes slipping through the solar system every so often and we just haven't been able to observe them.
It seems like your biggest hurdle might be getting local advertisers in an area. Maybe I don't know anything about small-scale ad sales, but I would think that part of the business would really benefit from having local/regional people doing ad sales. Do you have a way to get around that? Is it a solved problem that I just don't know about? For that reason, it seems very obviously simpler to grow into regions, maybe not expand to the whole country at once.

Edit: I would have killed to have this service when I was in college. Props for making it work.
Is market now closed for a new AR Glass based startup?
Which has its own OS.
Because Google is in it. It has this tendency of making its platform open. Which in turn invites all the Big Hardware companies.
Also, there are many other startups already pursuing it.
I don't see why or how this could be important. It's possible to craft circumstances in which anyone would do almost anything. Numerous studies have shown that human morality and ethics are highly situational rather than permanently ingrained into the cores of our beings.
I'd like to go a step further and have an OS-agnostic device. Carefully documented with free reference drivers that can be ported to any OS. I don't see why hardware devices should be tied to or somehow "based on" a specific operating system. Can a laptop be just a laptop, not a windows laptop or linux laptop or whatever? And a phone a phone, not a linux phone?
Without any specific evidence, the null hypothesis ought be "did small mistakes that kept on compounding on themselves." It's quite normal human behavior.

If there were an oracle that could answer, I'd comfortably bet even odds that he started out with some rather small mistake, and then thought "well, I just need to keep things afloat a while to cover for it, and then we will all be good." Oh, I'll borrow a little money from my spouse. Oh, I'll just take some money from my neighbor without him knowing, but I'll get it back and return it to him later.

Lots of gambling addicts flame out this way, and my gut tells me that the Bitcoin community has more than its fair share of gambling-addictive personalities.

Sorry to hear about your experience. This is all good stuff. I was actually going to try to do my community service through FamiLAB, but the person I contacted was super busy.

To make matters more complicated, FamiLab's office is like 2 hours away by bicycle and, ironically, 3 by Lynx bus. (I do not have access to a car.)
Aperture and iPhone seem to share a lot of data even if that data is not accessible from iPhoto. I would assume everything would still be available in Photos even if the UI isn't as advances.

The aim of Dart was really to provide a second VM in browser with a compatibility dart2js compilation mode. It was never intended to always be used with dart2js.

Dart 1.5.1 produces nowhere near that much for the same input, producing just 14KB (see [1]). Yes, arguably still too verbose, but note that much of the overhead is essentially a Dart-compatibility support library, so remains constant as the amount of Dart increases.

I think you are missing the point here so I'll layout the three reasons price is a big deal to some (I'm basing my arguments on the ($1000 per platform price because that is the first place I think it's really worth while):

1. If I'm bootstrapping a startup, That $2000 is easily at least 1 entire year of web hosting, or a new MacBook, or a couple of new servers. Bootstrapping has thin enough margains that $2000 is a large amount of money and runway for a young company and that's only for one dev. Have two dev's? that's even more of your runway gone. $4000 could sustain two devs for two months if they are really cheap and try hard. Xamarin is unlikely to save you that two months.

2. If I'm developing an indie game there are A HUGE amount of cheaper better options available. Unity, Unreal, Cry Tech, cocos2D/3D, or Apportable. All cheaper and better for game dev.

3. If I'm learning how to develop mobile apps with the hope of obtaining a full time job. Then Xamarin job posts are fairly rare, so spending even $600 to learn the dev process and then still not have the skills to get a full time position is a losing value equation.

4. There are cheaper tools out there, like Ruby Motion or Apportable.

I think the Xamarin guys are brilliant and made a great product but I think the value is very limited to existing Dot Net or independent app developers. Yes it makes a lot of sense for those groups but there are a ton of others that the price is a real barrier to entry.
This is by far better approach yes (and as you say on your page, really its all just a bit of tweaking, not a technical redesign); Wikipedia's content is, IMHO, way too rich to thrive with the minimalist/huge-blog-font combo in OP's link.

Digital identity cards: Estonia takes the plunge
Our roll-out process involves having people getting and maintaining the property listings (a fundamental component of our business involves vetting properties to make sure they will take students, as about 60% will not), then building traffic at the school, and then securing advertising placements. We've successfully rolled out to three separate, unique campuses, and yeah, we've definitely learned a lot from each one.

But it's a lot of work for three people, in addition to the rest of the business development and sales and all that. As we add more campuses it's going to become impossible. It makes far more sense to hire a campus rep at a school to go around getting students to use the site, putting up posters, talking with administration, sharing on facebook, etc. than it does to have the CEO and CTO of the company driving down there once a week and spending the whole day doing that. And even though we have revenue it's still not enough to start doing that while simultaneously keeping the lights on.

We're looking to raise money to streamline this whole expansion process and keep our business alive long enough to see that expansion through. We've validated our product and revenue model, but we need some initial capital in order to, for lack of a better phrase, do things right.
I wish I could look outside Orlando but that's not an option for me at the moment.
It depends on why you are asking the question. Are you literally demanding the candidate spit out the optimal answer immediately? If they can they it means they can remember their algorithms class which is a good signal.

If not, can they solve it with a naive method and then make reasonable attempts to iterate on that, even if they never hit an optimal solution?

It is a little like a high end restaurant asking a trainee chef to make an omelette, which is apparently common in the culinary industry.
That's what I thought when I started reading the article, but the author does make a good point about the closeness between Apple & Disney. You have to think there's going to be at least some sharing of lessons learned between the two companies.
The loop searches for a true comparison until it reaches one, them stop.

And, i=4 is not ignored by the compiler, it is declared as undefined behaviour. What the compiler MAY do is to always return true.

In this cause, it will always return true, either because it reached the 5th value ([4]), or because there was a match in the first 4 values.

As the result will always be true, the compiler may then simply return true and skip the loop.
In some ways, it's interesting that Apple is almost "driving" the market without even being a part of it yet. Everyone assumes that Apple is working on an iWatch, and companies are scrambling to get out and take as much share as they can. The first I heard of Smart Watches was really Pebble, but then quickly there came rumors that Apple was building one, and suddenly Samsung rushes a few to market.

I think people assume that Apple will set the standard on a quality watch, and maybe have it be unique and special in some way. I think people would be underwhelmed if they came out with something that was almost exactly what Samsung/LG/Motorola is coming out with. People like to speculate on what they'll do that will make it stand apart.

I think it's also helped along by the fact that this would be the first new product of Tim Cook's Apple. It's been a few years coming, and expectations are high: what does this mean for AAPL over the next 10 years, can they still innovate...?
Have the missing bitcoins moved at all?
Indeed. The growing free software & hardware communities, and the numerous companies they spin off, are an existence proof that patents aren't a requirement of a working economy. They aren't going away any time soon until free hardware makes up a larger proportion of the market, because the current patent holders have too much to lose, and can buy politicians who will keep propping up the current system. So, start more successful free hardware companies that ignore the patent system, gradually rendering patents less relevant and less damaging.
This leopard-changing-its-spots analogy is the wrong way to look at things. It assumes that ethics and morality are permanently writ onto our cores, and that to change those values, one would have to become another person entirely. This is a false belief.

As I mentioned in a comment below, numerous studies have shown that a person's ethics are heavily influenced by their present circumstances and environment, not some unchangeable inner nature.
The 5 Minute LinkedIn Growth Hack
We use datadog at pelotoncycle.com. My past experience was nagios but datadog is so much nicer as well as easier to scale. I looked into other services (cheaper, more expensive) before deciding on datadog.

In 2013 MtGox collected on average $150k USD in transaction fees. Per day.

On peak days, such as 1st December 2013, MtGox collected up to $1.3MM USD in fees.

That is money they could have used to hire someone.

Karpeles claim of 'we had no money' is not just laughable. It's an open slap in the face of everyone who lost money to MtGox.
Surprisingly few Google properties on there, I must say. Yes, many most certainly have large existing code-bases, but that it doesn't include things like the new Google Maps (which, AIUI, has relatively little in common with the old version) seems… interesting.
Well, after lunch when I went to pay for it, somehow the ebook was $10. I removed the book and was able to get the ebook for $10. As others have said, while it's a nice price, I like to see the author get rewarded for their effort, so I'll probably do the "upgrade to print".

I also picked Paypal because I'm not sure if this is some clever dynamic pricing/optimization engine or if the site is buggy!
Lisnr’s Audio-Beacon Technology Reaches Users Through Sound
That is true, however I think about 50% of the schools are elementary schools, which is the target market for Reading Rainbow. The interesting numbers I would like to see are which schools do not have the funding to buy this kind of a program already. For example, the school which my kids go to certainly could afford a site wide license for a reading tool like Reading Rainbow. They often do spend 10's of thousands on programs like that in a year. If handled properly, this program could easily snowball into being available almost ubiquitously in the US and other locations in the world.
Governments should reserve judgement until a conviction has been secured, but I do not believe that it is reasonable to demand that private individuals do the same. A presumption of innocence is about limiting the circumstances in which governments can restrict the rights of somebody, but it makes little sense outside of courtrooms.

Consider: Richard Nixon was never convicted. Does that mean I can't/shouldn't call him a criminal piece of shit?
I remember reading that most of the fossil fuels on earth were deposited before mushrooms and other fungi evolved which break down organic matter. Before they existed, organic material did not decay nearly as fast as it does now, so it would just pile up. That's why there is so much fossil fuel around, but it probably wont ever be replenished to the same levels.
I forget where I read this, so I could be misremembering. In any case, there's no guarantee that fossil fuels will exist.

"This paradox between our affluence as consumers and our precariousness as workers poses economic, political, and moral conundrums. If we can produce more with less, and workers become redundant, who will buy the goods? A robot can make a mobile phone but it cannot purchase one. Workers are also consumers. Fire your workers, your profits will rise until the day no one can afford to buy your product. Henry Ford was a visionary for paying his workers enough so they could buy his cars."

It's an interesting question. Thoughts?

Makes sense really, I know people who do use Aperture but they're out numbered by Lightroom users by a fair margin. It'll be nice to see more advanced features being provide in Photos as well, to fit the gap between the advanced (Lightroom/Photoshop user) and the keen amateurs.
It's possible he just didn't want to pay the guy enough, but . . . yeah. A brick-and-mortar bank hires a lot of appsec folks to review their code, for lots of money, and they at least have the legal system to fall back on. That's after they pay market rates for labor to write the code in the first place.

If I was in charge of MtGox security I would probably get an ulcer. One mistake and it's over, forever.
Thanks that's awesome.
A few people in different threads here talk about self-replicating robots or probes. The way they write, it seems as though we already have the technology to make them - which comes as a surprise to me.

So: for those of you who have talked about self-replicating machinery - where exactly are we at with that technology? And why are so many people sure it's more attainable than, say, faster-than-light travel?
It just depends on how much extra cost is invoked by having more users who never pay. (for example support, server costs)

I just don't think that you can follow some rule dogmatically, because for some it might be worth the exposure, for some the extra costs might outweigh the benefits.

This is something that I would decide on a case by case basis.
