Even small start ups should continue to do ok -- the hardware overhead for early stage stuff now is so cheap it is nearly free. Models that require huge scale before the revenue comes in could be a problem.

I self-funded so my opinion is likely wrong, but it seems like a lot of the excess money is going to questionable things in addition to paid growth (no clue how much Uber, Lyft, and others are spending, Groupon certainly took the paid acquisition to the extreme buying up huge chunks of available online inventory.) Luxurious offices are nice but hardly necessary for a serious coder or designer.

Perhaps the most vulnerable are the start ups that already exist and are dependent on investor money to operate. In the event of a market pull back desperate companies should be easy pickings for the big boys to acquire talent and other interesting goodies.

Leverage -- that makes bubbles very dangerous and unpredictable. Investor leverage is one thing, companies' own leverage is quite another. Last I looked (a year ago), tech was the best of the best by this metric. For public companies in other sectors, its a wonder if they would be worth anything in another major credit crunch. The corporations we keep hearing about having massive cash stock piles have liabilities to match. A concern would be Facebook's or Apple's market cap dropping 50%+ . Go to 0? No.

Except prescription drugs. I am not fully informed on how the ACA affected this, but it used to be that insurance plans could exclude certain classes of prescription drugs from out of pocket max.

This is how many people are financially ruined by long-term chronic illnesses. For some less common diseases, medications can easily cost >$10,000 per month – which might not be covered by your health insurance for various reasons or only partially covered. Read the fine print.

I see, this is more about sandboxing the renderer. Not necessarily sandboxing the tabs. Right? Curious if one really required the other.

Your JSON snippet is reminiscent of SXML, a format for describing XML/HTML as s-expressions. The difference being that, using quasiquote and unquote, Lisps are full-fledged templating languages.

Here's a simple template written in Scheme:

(define stuff '("foo" "bar" "baz"))

`(ul (@ (class "foo"))
,@(map (lambda (thing)
`(li ,thing))
stuff))

Output:

(ul (@ (class "foo")) (li "foo") (li "bar") (li "baz"))

Fun stuff!
Some people would disagree with you.

I have played a table-top game, where one player was eliminated before her turn. It was clear overall that there were much randomness in this game, and not much skill. To me, this is boring. On the other hand, many people around me thought it was fun: there's always something unexpected.

My current guess: to each his own. Your dichotomy is between good and bad competitive first person shooters. Some people might just want something flashy and random and fun.

Your definition of "open-ended" is very, um, open ended? If Risk is an open-ended game then so are all multiplayer games. X-Com (which are great games by the way - not criticizing) does not go too far beyond a basic turn-based strategy game which is basically chess puzzles with upgradable pieces decorated with an alien invasion theme. It has a decent random level generator, but I don't believe it is enough to qualify it what I think most people would term "open-ended."

I've read similar posts about writing everyday, and I decided to pick it up a little over a year ago.

I quickly realized that as a student my day's were simply not that interesting and my entries looked more and more like "went to school. studied. went home. slept."

Instead I started writing every week.

This is much more manageable and forces you to take time to reflect on your life. I look forward to writing every week.

I now have the last year of my life documented in these entries (by the way, I create a filter and email them to myself with the subject line Write: MM/DD/YYYY) and it's SO rewarding to go back and read them. It really doesn't take that long - maybe less than 30 minutes per entry.

I would highly recommend it.

A good definition from the PDF:

He wanted, in fact, to show that it is possible to convince without revealing, and so without unveiling his secret.

Or from wikipedia [1]:

In cryptography, a zero-knowledge proof or zero-knowledge protocol is a method by which one party (the prover) can prove to another party (the verifier) that a given statement is true, without conveying any information apart from the fact that the statement is indeed true.

As a potential customer, I want to let you know that you really should fix all the typos and the like on your website. It really gives a poor first impression when I see things like:

* 5 X VPN's (no apostrophe needed; what does this even mean?)
* 1 Dedicated IP Addresse
* Header/footer links open in a new tab.
* Some numbers are listed as 800, some as 1-800.
* Data center addresses have a comma at the end of the first line. That's not how US addresses are written.
* Headquarters address is all on one line.

All of these indicate, in my mind, a lack of attention to detail. This is absolutely the last thing I'd want in my compliance provider. (More charitably, it probably indicates a lack of familiarity with either English or certain US conventions, which is I'd forgive in some vendors, but not when it comes to HIPAA compliance.)

Please don't go and fix the specific things I listed and think you're done. You need to significantly rethink the impression you're giving.

The games when he was young WERE cooler. Why is this such a difficult idea to understand? We are not at the pinnacle of art. 2014 is not the best year for everything ever.

If someone said Hollywood was better in the 70s than today, it would be a completely uncontroversial statement. Why is it so hard to accept that games may have been better at some point in the past?
Yes, this. Honey bees aren't aggressive, unless you really threaten their hive (e.g. knock it over).

I think a lot of people just mentally lump them together with wasps and hornets, which can be much more aggressive.
To give you a faint idea of how meaningless battery benchmarks are vis-à-vis real life usage, here are results from Phone Arena - http://www.phonearena.com/news/All-bow-to-the-new-endurance-... - 9+ hrs for Xperia Z3 and 6+ for iPhone 6+ which is lesser than the S5.

"We measure battery life by running a custom web-script, designed to replicate the power consumption of typical real-life usage"

In other words I would be very surprised if any of these benchmarks translate to anything close to the numbers they proclaim.
Definitely. That said, you can keep bees nearly everywhere.

If not, your local group is probably fighting to make it happen.

By this measure Cube2: Sauerbraten is a good FPS.
This is my attempt to try and find a common characteristic among fps games I enjoy and trying to make it testable. A good game rewards skill and has little randomness to it. A bad game lets you feel awesome regardless of your skill which means you get less pleasure from getting better. Quake vs Peggle.
> Bottom line: it starts with knowing your own personal bandwidth limits, and knowing your prioritizes. Then backfill with the rest.

I agree with this. All these articles about doing X number of things in order to be productive really are just ideas. They are ideas that you may or may not incorporate depending on what is beneficial for yourself.

I work out and stretch every morning, and have recently started to write and read a little bit before I get to work. I don't do these things so I can tell other people about my accomplishments or my awesome rituals. I do these things because they help me throughout my day. Stretching and working out gives me more energy while writing in the morning helps organize my thoughts for the day.

What are you saying beside that games you see today don't fulfil your standards (which is what I summarized the article to)? There are and always have been games with a very straight story line. This doesn't mean the games are bad (I think Half Life 1 here, which was awesome despite being linear). And there are loads of games with many choices. In some regards some modern games even allow you more choice than any game ever before (think GTA5, Skyrim, Minecraft).

Are you complaining about AAA games specifically, maybe? I don't know AAA games very well, because I don't like them much myself. But AAA productions (movies, books, music, games) always have some specific attributes that are unpleasant to people. That didn't change much with computer games, did it?

So yeah, you mgiht be right, that I don't get the point. But if that's the case I still didn't get it!
Moisture also is what kills bees overwinter. They need ventilation and breezes.

Also, they actually forage up to 4 miles away [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forage_(honey_bee)]. Outside of that range, it is an energy negative (but some beekeepers will tell you that bees forage up to 7 miles away).
Alright, what specific qualifications are we talking about then? If this is about branching story paths with different endings, then let's use those words, rather than put the word "open-ended" there that may or may not accidentally blur the difference between those and other things I'd call "open-ended".
As the comments before me mentioned, the sad reality is corruption is rampant right now. When everyone is trying to get a piece of the pie, it'll only stop once the pie runs out.

Daily Drawing Practice: June Round Up – Joanna Ciolek
The question here is over what timescale would you expect to see the new climb? Isn't what you're really describing is just boom and bust which is pretty much business as usual, but you seem to be implying that it might just recover faster.

But if that's true (I can sort of see the logic - essentially that Wall St won't learn it's lesson for which there is some evidence) doesn't it also follow that the next bust would just come faster? If the crash is really just what happens when the valuations defy reality then if the money comes rushing back faster, wouldn't that just come about again faster?
I find it really bizarre that someone could get through a big long rant about why aren't games today like System Shock 2 without ever once mentioning Bioshock and Bioshock Infinite.
From what I've heard from both Google and MS people, Chrome had it first, it's just IE announced it (and shipped it in a beta) first. Alternatively, if you don't want to trust word of mouth — there's no way the Chrome team did their entire sandboxing implementation in the five months between IE announcing it and the announcement of Chrome, it's just too much work.
Or it could have been a thief. =)

A migrainous infarct is a rare complication of migraines with aura, and you should probably not worry too much about it.

But make sure you'll NEVER take vasoconstrictors during the aura...
Migraines with aura have two phases :

- first vasoconstriction, which cause the aura. Should not last more than 30-60 minutes. Take NO anti-migraine vasoconstrictor at this point.

- next comes vasodilatation which causes the pain. That's when vasoconstrictors can be used.

I think point (4) is the key here. The original bubble happened on the public exchanges with public money. The "IPO" was the big deal that everyone wanted to get in on after Netscape, et al valuations went crazy. Institutional investors were investing people's retirement accounts into companies they didn't understand. When that finally fell over, the impact was felt across the economy because it involved everybody's money.

This time the money is largely coming from private equity and there's not a lot of splashy IPOs happening. The people who are investing aren't mom and pop planning for their retirement. If a big VC firm looses it's shirt it's not as likely to have the impact on "Main Street" as we saw the last time around.

I'd like to say that I don't care one whit if a bunch of rich people suddenly loose their money, but if history has anything to show, it's that they'll somehow figure out a way to make the rest of us feel the pain too.

I worked for a strategic communications firm and this is, generally speaking, a good summary that lines up with one of the biggest guys in the industry (at least when he spoke to me with a tiny group of interns).[1] He further speculated people are socializing themselves into camps in the US, with majority political parties backing dominant media outlets and viewpoints. Getting people to detach from the Fox News viewpoint (and its supporting outlets) or the other side, is very difficult. This is even trying to discuss relative truth, as something as simple as Iraqi freedom fighter/enemy combatants/terrorist (notice I do not specify, you think what you want) death counts in a bombing or air strike. Iraqi outlets changed the number, wire services, and later news outlets expounded on minimal wire details never recorded in official records quoting unnamed sources (and I am sorry, I simply do not believe any US news outlet has the language or culture skills or the free money for bribery to reach out to even willing Iraqi gov officials to chat all day about everything they ordain in their products. This is pure bullshit and never revealing a source is intentional, as there is none).

To summarize, the fundamental problem, whether you like it or not, is also breaching the "other side" with truth or opinion or whatever. This media Balkanization is dangerous, and what you point out is that it is greasing the wheels of this operation.

So stop judging, read Aljazeera, RT, Iranian news feeds, and Chinese, Fox. I have read it all. You need to average out the facts and also see what opinions are being sold in the extremes, as that is the only way out of being mind-fucked in this system.
