Interesting, but I doubt that the legal system does much useful iteration anymore, considering that it can be 5 years (and many dollars) from novel conflict to Supreme Court ruling. Unless the adaptation rate scales exponentially with the number of rulings, that's too slow.
I went back to cable last year after years of Netflix/Hulu for my tv needs (there isn't a better option than Comcast for ISP and the Internet + Cable + HBO deal was more or less the same I was paying for Internet + Netflix/Hulu + TiVo), and Prime video has been a pretty adequate replacement for a lot of what I had been using Netflix to watch (which, honestly, is primarily children's programming, so your mileage may vary).

> So in real world, relaxing those "unfair" rules will cause death of many people. I'm all in favor of "clean, well defined and fair rules" - as long as

"As long as" ? Really?

No, you don't get to limit yourself this way.

Either you are in favor of fair rules or you are not.

Sounds like you couldn't care less about fairness, you just want less driving. Your goal "less deaths" is laudable, your method "make people miserable" is not. Not only is it unfair, it's also infective.

And thus you have proven my claim against you: You do not care how much misery you cause, in your quest for your personal version of utopia.

> So in real world, relaxing those "unfair" rules will cause death of many people.

No, actually it doesn't. Compare death rate of France vs US. Basically identical. Yet one has stupid rules (only the rich can drive) one does not.

> they'd say you're nuts - general population can't be trusted with such a dangerous machine!

No, I would not say that at all. Can you name any useful tools are are restricted to professionals only in the US? The only restrictions are in commerce, you can't sell your services. But I can't think of a single one that is restricted for personal use. Not even explosives.

Some examples: Nail gun (explosive or air powered). Bench press. Milling lathe. Heavy machinery. Digging equipment. Chain saw. Fire. Knives. Slicing mandolin.

> People have proven time and again that they are responsible enough to use axes.

You suffer from recentisim. Back when axes were used routinely by everyone there were tons of deaths and injuries.

Every single tool ever can, and has, caused death and injury. Some tools are used by a lot of people, some by only a few.

You seem to want the world to be like a nursery - no one can use anything dangerous ever. There is nothing special about cars in this, they are just the thing you happened to notice.
You're exaggerating, but thats ok. If I don't, then I simply ask them to clarify.
In this case, linking to the WSJ article wasn't helpful or advisable, and isn't in the best interest of readers. First of all, it's paywalled, and requires a Google search as a workaround, and not every reader is aware of that.

The main issue with it is that it doesn't bode well with the requirement for original reporting. In this case, there are 4 sources of which I'm aware (The Information, WSJ, Bloomberg and Recode) who reported on this, and all of them were original reports. Even if The Information was first to press, they all conducted their reporting indepedently and the fact that four sources have the same information is very relevant. By linking to only one original report, you're depriving the average HN reader of knowledge of this journalistic consensus.

Even if the link had to be to an original report, it would make more sense to link to The Information, which is also paywalled, but was first to press. But really, I'd prefer the top HN link to be to a site like Ars Technica, which diligently compiled all the different reports.

A better way to phrase the question would be 'when will amazon stop reinvesting every cent of gross profit into growth (AWS, fire phone etc all have large Capex that could have been booked as profit).

In my opinion the answer to this question is whichever comes first of Jeff Bezos dying, amazon being the largest company in the world or amazon imploding and going broke.
I was recently browsing through New York AirBnB listings, and one in particular caught my eye.

The guy who was renting out his place gave very stern instructions to renters. It was basically:

I'll meet you out on the street corner and let you into the apartment. DO NOT stand directly outside the lobby. DO NOT talk to anybody else in the apartment building. If anybody else in the apartment building talks to you, DO NOT answer.

I have a few guesses as to why he wants everything to remain secretive. When you have a semi-regular or regular stream of strangers going in and out of a neighbor's apartment, it's at best shady-looking and at worst a complete nuisance.
Suyash and Ajay - what you wrote about reflects a problem that many startups in India face. We have to use payment gateways and Banks outside India to receive recurring payments in small amounts from people down the road, which is really weird. Thank you for writing about it.

In my view one of the key reasons to do it is to use AWS or the like. Until they have full Docker support on bare metal that is.

P.S.
There are other reasons, e.g. Docker makes it difficult to create a separate publicly visible network interface. But these I feel will go away soon as well.
I think this is key. I have a laundry machine at home, and would honestly be ashamed to bring in my wash, but if it saved me a trek to the laundromat, and the google laundry facility was a few minutes walk from my desk, it might give me a nice break from my day to mindlessly fold clothes.

The WSJ's article isn't a summary of The Information's original story. They confirmed the report based on their own sources, which is completely legitimate even if they weren't the first ones to break the story.
Get over it, you were not good enough for them and that's what it is. If you were "google quality", you would have had long had an offer. This is for everyone else reading this, if you don't want to go through this. You must dazzle the folks interviewing you. Building amazing products you are willing to demo, solve interesting problem utilizing ridiculously large data sets, or in interesting AI domains. Google doesn't want average folks. I don't work at google or ever did, but your post is one of many lamenting about this.

It is more visual than programming. I would also work very hard on improving your ability to find answers online because if you evolve past the visual interfaces it's a very important skill for programming.
I can't change the streaming quality? Is this a bug?
I agree. When you look at companies like Major League Gaming who are becoming not only tournament hosts, but providers for online competition AND streaming you can't help but ask how popular gaming will become. MLG is already working with a developer in China to bring a video game arena/stadium to Hengqin Island.

A stadium. For video games.

The barrier to entry is just so much lower for video games when compared to professional sports - nearly anyone can play and get good enough to compete against the pros without even leaving their house. Personally I prefer "real" sports over their virtual counterparts, but millions of people disagree with me - and that number will only continue to grow. I think eSports are going to grow dramatically over the next 5 years.
Any reason why WhoIs data on glasswire.com is concealed?
Beautiful! And just a future feature request for the paid version: Would it be possible to limit the bandwidth allotted to an individual application? I know it's a monitoring tool, and that would be more of an administration tool feature, but I think it could fit in with the concept.
Might be better to say that they have locked in their streaming content to Mac, Windows, Fire OS, iOS, all game consoles of the last two generations, 541 smart TVs, Google TV, a limited selection of DVRs, receivers and Home Theatre systems, most popular Blu-Ray players, Tivo, FireTV, Roku and several other streaming media players, and they have released music but not video for Android.
Your approach mirrors what mine would have been. If the curvature of the earth can be measured over 725 meters, then to me, it's inconsequential whether or not that is detectable within this man-made construct.

That isn't to impugn the question, or the method, but that I'm less interested in whether the architects adjusted each each to be 4cm higher than they would need to be or not. Even if the airport were built over the course of 5 meters, in which the curvature would be (effectively) undetectable, the airport itself, being man-made, may exhibit irregularities caused by human error, shifting ground, variable bedrock, etc.

Regardless, the article was fantastically fun to read, as was your post.

Your point about the VM being aware of stack layout is of course correct. That aside, Java references can be more complex than a simple pointer to the referenced object. In particular:

In some of Oracle’s implementations of the Java Virtual Machine, a reference to a class instance is a pointer to a handle that is itself a pair of pointers: one to a table containing the methods of the object and a pointer to the Class object that represents the type of the object, and the other to the memory allocated from the heap for the object data.

Is that four years you've been applying? Would you mind sharing your idea or project? Maybe we can give you some advice.
To be clear, in any Turing-complete language you can do anything (more or less). However, many things often require a lot of boilerplate, especially involving metadata: Does it display text? How do you get its name? Does it have its own thread? Does it have any XML-configurable attributes?

Often, especially in C++, that boilerplate is created through code-generating tools (like WYSIWYG editors), which is fine for many use cases... all of the metadata, getters, setters, and wiring logic are churned out for you. There are drawbacks to that approach, including many of the same limitations to WYSIWYG HTML/CSS tools (which I guess is a special kind of GUI development).

One way to improve the situation is to allow for more compile-time and/or runtime dependency injection in C++ code. It's not a silver bullet, but it's a tried-and-true model for other kinds of frameworks in various languages. In other words, why don't we see a Sinatra or a Spring in C++ land? Some people may think this is a feature, not a bug, but I submit the lack of those types of frameworks is due to a limitation of the language, not a lack of interest.

To get to the point of C++ GUI frameworks, however, some basic building blocks are needed. Especially of note are reflection mechanisms. For example, attributes on types, functions, and objects that can be inspected in code (constexpr or not).

This is a fairly involved subject worthy of a series of blog posts (with examples) instead of a single comment in a comment thread. But I hope I got the general idea across.
It doesn't even have to be particularly special, just simple decent lunch.

Just remove having lunch as problem to be solved by people who have other things on their minds.
I'll publish the results here on HN, much like I did on Designer News: https://news.layervault.com/stories/29331-results-dn-survey-...

Collecting emails for notification might have been wise, but I wanted to be completely clear no highly personal details would be collected or published. (Salary might be considered highly personal, but without contact information to attach that salary to, it remains generic.)
There are windows design guidelines, most developers/ISV's adhere to them.

Another point: many companies don't want to spend any time or effort on design, as for most applications, it won't translate into additional revenue. I would argue that many customers don't even care what the app looks like so long as it works and they can figure out how to use it.

Also you don't want to have to re-learn how to computer for every single application you open because somebody got bored with the current state of design for a network traffic monitoring tool.
Have you tried using Little Snitch along with Privoxy?

I find the combination works very well. You get two ways to block things
(Little Snitch rules and Privoxy rules) and because Privoxy is so easy to
restart you can make "Deny" your default behavior since if the site doesn't
show properly, just restart privoxy and hit refresh.

Great looking app btw. Haven't had to work on a windows box in a long
time but if I do I'm definitely going to try this out.
Ah, that's interesting. That seems like it would still allow a "classic" boarder, who interacts more with the household, including typically eating meals along with the household rather than only renting a room (as in "room and board"), not purely renting out a room. But probably safer if there is also some other connection (friend-of-a-friend, etc.), reading the other bits of the blurb.

I was one of the lead devs on ESPN's "League Manager" Fantasy Football engine rewrite back in 2002.

The Yahoo outage reminds me of that experience. League Manager had no clear project or product management leadership. After four months of 60h weeks, most working 7 days, we ended up in a late-August crapstorm when we launched an incredibly buggy product. Things stabilized in about week three of the NFL season and I took the next three weeks off to recover, telling myself that the Christmas bonus would be worth sacrificing my time, energy, health, and relationships.

My key lessons:

0. My bonus was $1500. Not only was it not worth it, it was a slap in the face.

1. No death march projects like that ever again.

2. The opportunity cost to work on a project like that wasn't worth it, given the tiny rewards. An instructive lesson that helped push me towards entrepreneurship - working hard isn't a problem, but it is when the rewards are controlled by someone else.

3. In retrospect, I'm incredibly thankful that social media didn't exist. The closest we had were user forums. A quick perusal of said forums ensured a crappy day due to the vitriol and hate thrown towards the dev team, who were busting their humps to fix the product. I remember one commenter who sympathized with the dev team -- whenever I was down in the dumps, I would read his comment to trudge on. It motivated me for weeks.

For anybody on the Yahoo Fantasy Football dev team, it gets better. Take some time, reflect, and do your best to integrate the lessons you've learned here as you decide what to work on down the road.
The issue is they don't ask for roles explicitly so there would be no way to know the number of technical vs non-technical.
What about spending a few minutes exploring P6 and providing feedback about it to Larry Wall et al on #perl6?

One easy way follows (for you or anyone else reading this who is curious about P6). Preferably between about noon and midnight GMT (so you're more likely to catch Larry Wall, nick TimToady) visit the freenode IRC channel #perl6 (eg go to https://kiwiirc.com/client/irc.freenode.net/perl6 and enter a nick) and enter 'hi'. There are on channel evalbots and folk who will be happy to show you a well designed and continuously improving Perly blend of FP, OO, etc.

I don't want to come off wrong here, but have you seen jeans cuts from the 90s? There's a reason people don't wear them anymore. It's a fashion statement in itself to do so, because it looks, you know, dated.

Of course you can't sell the some five or even ten year old cut because no one in their right mind would buy it. It would be complete doom for your company if you tried to. Tastes change, and they do so in complicated ways that's not at all trivial to model. They change in accordance to other changes in society, in music, and in the political climate. It's all interconnected.

I am pretty much a jeans-n-tshirt slob, but even I wouldn't want to wear the same clothes for a decade. Feel free to stock up on that lifetime supply of shirts, but don't expect any reasonable economic agent to cater to it. It's just not something anyone can blame fast fashion for. I mean, the DEC 21064 Alpha was a beautiful architecture, but it wouldn't have made sense to expect it to sell in 2005.

Some items are timeless though, such as certain coats, hats and boots, but jeans and shirts are not. Those things will work ten years on, but street fashion never will.
Great idea. I don't usually watch Dragons Den but one of the few episodes I watched had this exact thing and they said they were already partnering with Sony and that their tags were in the box of every Sony laptop (I think).
I thought I had read on the S14 application that teams could submit an application, update it, and resubmit it before the deadline. I can't find anything that states the same with the new format. Is this still true?

My cofounder and I would like to ask for some critique on our answers including the personal questions. However it seems that the statement, "We will send an email to each founder to fill out additional information about themselves." implies that the application must be submitted before we see the personal questions. I just want to confirm if the first submission should be the final draft before we proceed.

Hopefully the questions about hacking a non-computer system and most impressive thing we've built/achieved are included in the personal questions. Those were some of the most fun to answer.

Perhaps "aware" was a poor choice of words. Fact is, you can break this down many ways but it almost always boils down to money and who is contributing how much to who else. Visibility is costly.

Which, not to lose sight of the article. "You want us to contribute to you getting elected monetarily and with our employees/unions, you'll do what we want."

I just hope a majority wakes up one day and votes like me.

The difference is YouTube is on at least a couple magnitudes larger scale. Furthermore, YouTube doesn't create content and host that, it only hosts the content, allowing for a much easier way to share copy-written material. On Twitch, the things they are muting are recorded videos of streams of their own site. Note the difference here. There's not an easy way to take say a movie and upload it to twitch VoDs in a reasonable amount of time. Lastly, the entire VoD is muted, even if its background music, game music, etc. and most of the time the key sound element is the streamer himself/herself, which is completely lost with muting system. Also why can they not just respond to DMCA requests? There is nothing that has been shown that they are receiving an inordinate amount of DMCA requests that would be impossible to handle with a more refined approach.
