1. Why do you cook? Is it to save cash or is it recreation? Or something else?

I was a chef for 2-3 years before i went into Web Dev, i still love to cook and have much more knowledge in cooking than most people because of working in commercial kitchens. That said, i usually cant be bothered cooking if its just for me, i like cooking for others.

2. Do you plan ahead? Like a weekly meal plan?

Nah, i like to just see whats in the kitchen and work with it. There are general dishes that i cook often because i like them and will specifically buy ingredients for them, but the benefit of being able to cook, is that it allows you to use what you have.

3. What kind of things do you cook usually?

I like to make the ingredients for things that allow me to pull a meal together quickly. EG, i'll make croutons, salad dressing and chicken so i can make a salad or a wrap in 5 mins if i want to. I make pesto, makes pasta really easy. Every time i have a poker night i'll make a massive pot of my BBQ chilli, it has many fans and is versatile, you can have it with tortilla chips, soft tortillas, pasta, rice, chimmichanga's, etc. Mushroom/beef stroganoff is tasty, roast chicken is easy. I could go on for days.

4. Do you follow any diet? Atkins, Slow Carb etc.

Hell no, i liberally use salt, butter, cream etc, but i'll make sure not to live of heavy foods like that, i'll make sure i eat a good lot of salads, wraps, stir fry's, etc to balance it out.

5. Do you have any life hacks, tips to be more productive as a cook?

A good sharp knife, a large heavy chopping board with wet paper kitchen towel underneath it, stops it moving. Also, watch youtube videos for inspiration, food wishes, any celebrity chef, etc.
That's a nice list of things most consumers won't be doing. That's not to say there's no value for people who do need it, but it does not suggest Bitcoin will become hugely valuable like Visa.

> - Buying things that people would be unwilling to sell to you with existing payment methods due to fraud risks. One legal example: iPhone purchases shipped to Nigeria.

Small global market share for legal uses.

> - Buying things electronically where the existing payment methods are too slow or expensive. For example, funding a stock trading account in seconds to an hour instead of 1-2 days or funding an online gambling account (legal for most non-US residents but slow and expensive with credit cards).

Most non-US residents can do bank transfers as fast as Bitcoin or will be able to Real Soon Now.

> - Buying an expensive item from a trusted merchant at a discount commensurate with the reduced transaction cost and zero chargeback risk.

So like 5%? Fringe, people who really care about a discount will buy something cheaper or haggle.

> - Paying for contractors or crowd-sourcing efforts in any country in the world with ease.

Fringe for consumer market share.
I seem to recall their original model being around paid developer access to the platform. That is fairly intriguing as the ability to create value-added tools/techs and partner with any other discount brokerage is very difficult. Seems like a large enough user base would enable an app-marketplace where many of the quant/social-stream/chatter-arbitrage tools that currently [try to] sell direct to investors could have a chance at more distribution. Couple this with something like Quantopian ... profit!

It's bad because the majority of people who invest their own money invest without enough information about the company. Finance is almost deliberately obfuscated to keep retail investors out, and unless you have the time and the knowledge, it's going to be difficult to make decent returns unless you're investing in mutual funds, ETF's, etc.

Knowing the author personally and having worked at the same company with him (he left there a long time ago). I can say it is neither. It was among the most broken places I've worked. The author himself is a great communicator and technical lead.

Perhaps we should accept the shocking reality that there are really startups this awful to work for :)
Given Android's core team statements at Google IO 2014 about Java being the only official language, with no plans to improve the NDK beyond the existing support, I find it very hard to ever happen.

Unless Management forces the team to change their mind, that is.

Besides naturally-sourced pharmaceuticals, what objective benefits do biodiversity offer humans?
If you are referring to microwaves, they are not "owned" in the same sense that for example a landline might.

Wifi has a different sort of license. In fact, it is unlicensed, and further, some of the wifi bands are secondary services to Amateur Radio, and if the wifi interferes with Amateur Radio work, it must be relocated or silenced.

Further, Wifi has built-in protocols to make channel sharing a very effective reality.
I'm sure falseprophet's response would be something along the lines of "index funds bla bla bla professional investors bla bla bla efficient market hypothesis bla bla bla" which isn't necessarily wrong (I agree with this line of thinking myself, mostly) The problem is when people complain about new opportunities for average folk and use an argument that amounts to "we need to protect dumb people from themselves" which is too simplistic an answer for complicated problems, in my view.

Often, people end up being smarter than you think, when given the opportunity (not that I'm endorsing Robinhood... I'd be very cautious about using them, based on first impressions)
> 1. Why do you cook? Is it to save cash or is it recreation? Or something else?

This is a baffling question to me. Why would you not cook? People have been cooking their own food for hundreds of thousands of years. Is there some kind of modern, better alternative that I'm unaware of?

Sounds that way doesn't it? But the word order changes the meaning.

I'm saying kids alone doesn't happen as often.

You were saying (or it seemed like you were saying) that kids creating a new spoken language doesn't happen as often.
Sure, well I wouldn't hire you. You're one of those horrible sexist man pigs that assumes everyone they talk to on the internet is a white male like them.

CHECKMATE. And goodnight.
I don't know if you read the post, but he says:

> Right now the only way to do that would be to put something in the box, then turn off Selective Sync everywhere for that folder. (Or upload files via Dropbox’s web interface, to a folder that’s been unchecked on all your devices via Selective Sync.)

> It’s not ideal. Selective Sync wasn’t meant to be used in that way… but for that matter, neither was Dropbox.

I think his gripe is the core premise of dropbox — file syncing — isn't the same as 1TB backup.
I cook ~80% of my meals. Generally speaking I try to eat out infrequently, and when I do I seek out items I would not typically cook for myself (or lack the expertise and equipment to attempt).

1. I love cooking, especially for other people. It's also far less expensive for me to cook delicious, healthful food than it is to eat out constantly, even with time spent taken into consideration. Throw in a partner with special dietary needs and there is further reinforcement.

2. I do if I have a special event on the horizon (holiday, dinner party, that kind of thing) or I am going to pack food for travel. Otherwise I just make a mental plan based on what I have and what is available/in season.

3. I grill a lot of spice-rubbed meats, bake muffins and scones using almond and coconut flours, bake fish, roast vegetables, make slow cooker soups, and the list goes on. My girlfriend and I also make homemade yogurt using one of these (http://www.amazon.com/Yogourmet-104-Electric-Yogurt-Maker/dp...), cooking the yogurt for ~36 hours until it has a custard-like consistency. Delicious.

4. My girlfriend has to follow the FODMAP diet (basically eliminating all fermentable substances...of which there are so many) due to a medical condition. She used to follow something slightly less restrictive called the specific carbohydrate diet, and with selective exceptions (I don't have any medical restrictions) I still do. Think little to no processed foods, no refined sugars, no grains of any kind, no starchy vegetables - lots of greens and meat and cheese and homemade yogurt. I throw in rice and some other non-SCD carbohydrates (rice, etc.) so that I can participate in endurance sports.

5. I plan to make leftovers. I try to think of meals in three stages: their original composition, how they'll taste as leftovers, and how they could become an ingredient in a quick third dish (like an omelette).
Except in the mean time they are eating all the exchange fees.

Strange Visitor – A CONVERSATION WITH APHEX TWIN
Syro, new album from Aphex Twin since 2001 drukqs, he got interviewed on Pitchfork [1]

Why did you choose to go into web dev? I'm looking to make the opposite transition - web development to cooking full time.
I taught myself to code up to a 65/hr job in 2 years and trained a friend to a 25/hr job in half a year.

Very glad to see others doing the same, I can't wait until online education mixed with mentorship proves to be a viable education option.
Some industries seem to have a culture of harsh negative feedback given publicly and it seems to work ok, but then people have an expectation of that going in to the industry.
So.... Google has a test harness with built in fuzzing for regression testing changes to their driving algorithms?
This looks like a great utility for data analysis. Thanks.

Doesn't see to be functioning on the Tor browser bundle by default, but maybe there are instructions of how to do that somewhere.

Will continue to test it out, and see how everything works.
Why is it "scummy"? They are obligated to fill your orders at the NBBO. Your fills happen at the same price as if they routed you directly to the exchange.
Whenever I want to show my team better ways of doing things, I always pick on my own code or actions as the examples not to follow (if I can find them--otherwise I'll make some up). Then, I try to find examples from their work where they've exhibited the behavior I'd like (again, making up examples if needed).

You don't want to be the guy whose code is called out as garbage, unless you're doing it yourself.
iOS defaults to asking for TouchID and passcode if more than 48 hours have elapsed since you last interacted with the phone, or if the phone has been power cycled.

There's a certain point at which asking for TouchID and passcode too often will encourage people to use less secure pass codes, which defeats the point of having 2-factor authentication in the first place.
If your algorithmic skills are good enough to ace the problems in that book, you can probably get a job at one of the big three software companies (Google, MS, Amazon). The vast majority of programming jobs are enterprise development work (think endless CRUD apps) that require nowhere near that level of skill.
That's a bit of a loaded question.

If "laypeople" just means "not financial industry insiders", then no, it's not necessarily bad.

If "laypeople" means "people who haven't bothered to spend any time at all learning how the market works (or at least, how it's supposed to work)", then yes, it's a very bad idea. For those people, the market may end up being functionally equivalent to a casino, but without the free drinks.
That's completely true, but it's also true that if that day comes and Bitcoin is so entreched in the global marketplace so you can exchange it in Burkinabe villages, then it will be worth 100x today's price (especially when taking bubble effects into consideration). For some people in some situations that can be a rational bet to make.
I understand what you're going through. I've seen others in the same position as you with Magento. I don't know how to choose a good Magento team, but some advice I was given is if you are not doing at least a $1 million in revenue on your website do not touch Magento. ---

Every Magento framework is custom, this is expensive. And you'll always be at the mercy of whoever is your latest talent that you hope can make it work. And you'll always be hoping that it will work. Magento is very complicated, it can do everything, but you don't need to do everything.----

If you want a basic framework that works you have great options in Shopify and Bicommerce (or volusion but I prefer the other two more and shopify the most). And you will save unbelievable amounts of money and stress. The important difference between Magento vs Shopify is you are basically outsourcing the expertise and cost of your framework onto Shopify.
--- But if your store is working and you can get by on it then you could just get along with what you have.
1. I cook mostly to save money, and because I really like doing it. I like to go to a restaurant, have a dish, and then try to recreate it myself. Also portions I can purchase are too small to make me full.

2. No, I eat what's in my fridge, starting with most volatile items like kale, spinach and tomatoes. I always have a lot of eggs and onions which don't seem to go bad for a while. In the freezer I have fish, bags of frozen veggies. In the cupboard I have canned beans and canned tuna.

3. All of my meals include meat, fish or eggs and vegetables or beans. I try to limit carbs, but once in a while I make spaghetti.

4. I try to avoid processed food and limit carbs in favor of proteins.

5. Get a magic bullet! I just made a glass of hummus for pitas, celery and carrots. It took me 5 minutes.
When I'm rushing in the morning, I make a banana+milk+peanut butter+egg smoothie. Takes 2 minutes to make and serves as a breakfast. You can add in protein powder to your meals.
A quick lunch at work: Microwave a sweet potato for 9 minutes (turn it halfway through) and eat with a can of tuna. My favorite is chipotle flavoured. It's a $3 lunch and it's huge!
Another thing I do is make lunch and dinner (same food, divided into two portions) while I cook and eat breakfast.
Likely more important is the synchronization of time within a data center.
1. A variety of reasons. The result of a tasty, nutritious meal is probably the main motivator, followed by challenge factor (I push myself to cook a somewhat wide variety of dishes), followed by cost. I pay for quality ingredients but still probably come out ahead on cost.

2. Most of the time, I plan a week at a time, but that might only be three or four dinners, as I plan on leftovers and usually eat out once a week. I keep a running list of meal ideas next to the week's plan on a whiteboard in my kitchen.

3. I try to stick with seasonal vegetables and that often guides my meal choices. I cook for/with vegetarians, vegans, and people with various allergies these days, which sometimes changes my plans; I get more latitude when cooking for myself. Green curry (with paste made from scratch) is the dish I'm most often asked to cook for groups; pulled pork and braised leg of lamb are also quite popular. I try to rotate through various protein sources during each week (including meatless), and while meat is often a star of my meals, they're mostly vegetables by at least a 2:1 ratio. Oh, and there's usually one meal per week that's stir-fry to use up lingering veggies.

4. No specifically named diet. I began to cut back on breads and sweets a couple of months ago to help shed a few errant pounds (I'm moderately fit at 135 lbs now), but other than that I generally eat what I want. I never drink soft drinks, rarely drink alcohol, and choose snacking carbs wisely.

5. I feel like most productivity hacks are geared towards squeezing every bit of efficiency out of one's time. While there are some useful common-sense ideas — establishing mise en place, caring for your equipment, etc. — I usually encourage people to tackle efficiency from the other angle. Instead of fretting about doing a lot in a little time, slow down a bit and carve out plenty of time to make a meal well. Meat needs time to get tender, bread needs time to proof, etc. The main thing I encourage new cooks to do is invest in spices, because having a solid core set of them makes a huge difference in the quality of results and new cooks are sometimes hesitant to try recipes that call for spices they don't have on hand.
Dokan for Windows (last updated 2011) and MacFUSE for OS X do exist, but they're not battle-tested, to say the least. It wouldn't be wise for Dropbox to stake its reputation on such unreliable software.
Camlistore (https://camlistore.org/) is the answer. Here's hoping it becomes just as easy to use as Dropbox someday.
Ask HN: What are the best e-commerce platforms out there
I am doing a quick survey to find the top, most customizable e-commerce cloud platforms out there. Say for example you need your own e-commerce web-app and mobile-app in iOS & Android.

Are there any white-label turn key solutions out there can allow one to easily catalog some products (maybe Pinterest style) and have end-users create accounts and purchase items?
A More Thoughtful Approach
Kind thanks, but regardless of who's meant by the "others", I feel obliged to point that our leaders' "Western partners" did quite a stellar job in that department, too.

Speaking of the Ch. episode, while there were definitely criminal decisions involved (local people not being told what exactly happened, and thus exposed to huge risks), what "pilsetnieks" does is spreading "клюква", I believe.

The given context was "on this news," explicitly referring to the single period of time since this information was made public. In that time and that time alone, bitcoin has come up a few dollars.

Nobody is denying the fact that bitcoin is still down from last week - or even last month, but the context in question is the past 4ish hours.
Clojurescript might be more of a magnet than a filter in finding developers. I think any developer would be excited to learn the language that influenced React and the immutable js libraries... as long as they had some guidance and employment to do it!

In my experience, I joined a company specifically to learn/use clojurescript and others joined the same time, and we were committing code after 2 weeks.

Om has a steep learning curve. I'd recommend quiescent if you want the bare minimum for interfacing with React in cljs.
If an app is a social app (like in the animated gif demo), that would mean that the app creator already has some server code. Creating a custom link would be pretty easy in that case. I'm not sure if i understand the use case here.
> Teasing, shaming and other forms of negative humor are
very hard to do with a positive result. People are
astonishingly different in what they can tolerate and
how they respond. I suppose, with the right people, and
the right team dynamics it can be OK.

So true. I've had great managers that had great rapport with the team and everyone was tight knit enough that the manager could stand in the hall and say "hey, come over here and look at the ridiculous code Bill wrote" and it would all be in good fun, even for the person who was being mocked (being able to laugh at your own mistakes is important, IMO). And on the other hand, I've had terrible managers who aren't able to do it in a good-natured manner and it ends up being mean-spirited, condescending, and morale-killing. There's a surprisingly fine line between "lol, Bill, what were you thinking?" and "Bill wrote bad code and I'm going to call him on it, making everyone on the team uncomfortable, and thus cultivating an environment where everyone lives in fear of making a mistake."
1. recreation and I like the food I cook more than the alternatives

2. I usually plan for a few days but also adjust my plans ad-hoc

3. Curries, Stews/goulash, fried sausages, ribs, burgers, fish (salmon)

4. Low Carb, because it works for me

5. Get a sortiment of curry pastes and a few cans of coconut milk. Curries are really easy and delicious. Cut some meat and vegetables, stir fry them, add the curry paste and pour the coconut milk over everything.

Put ribs into an oven bag and they almost cook themselves.

Get a Thermapen.

...mark up the prices their customers are paying for securities.

Are you suggesting the customer's orders will not be filled at the NBBO? Or something else? Can you state explicitly (i.e., describe the timeline) of what you think is happening?
We are probably in the same camp; I just wasn't sure if GP was comparing casinos with 'stock trading' or the equity asset class in general, which, if one subscribes to the 'boring' methods of index fund investing, are hard to beat over a 5+ year time window.

I would hope ETFs are available on this platform, since they trade like stocks.
I have had this experience and many others in float tanks...

I do, I love to cook!

1. Recreation. TBH is not much cheaper cooking than eating out around here...

2. Nope, I decided what to do while in the supermarket.

3. Pasta, the most thing I do is pasta. Ah, and steaks (I looooove meat).

4. Nope.

5.1 Start with dishes that you are used to eat. Doing so you'll have just to perfect the cooking, you already known what a, e.g., spaghetti carbonara, should taste like.

5.2 Don't follow recipes literally. Instead of following exact quantities and time try to understand what each ingredient/method does and, then, perfect it in your way.

5.3 Do the same dish many times. Maybe this time the sauce is to thick... What if I change celery for leek? Let's make it more sweet with purple onion instead of yellow. Things like that.

5.4 And of course, be inventive! At first you may be not proficient enough to try things just out of your head but, once you feel confident enough, just do it!
