There seems to be an almost religious belief that capitalism has to work in all circumstances. But you can't just keep pumping credit into an economy with the hope that it will continue to expand. People only have so many needs. After a while there is no real point in building either new factories or houses.

Why isn't that fact that interest rates are zero not interpreted to mean that we are simply at capacity? Capitalism isn't broken, it's just full...
This is the most appropriate reply currently.

We bemoan capitalism, but what we are really seeing is corrupt administrations with ex-banker moles everywhere supporting the financial industry's black sheep at all costs, against all rules of capitalism and the free market.
A Notmuch mail update
When you're setting up a website for someone else, it's much easier to deal with no billing than it is even with $1/year.

Email services provided on the side by hosting companies (or worse, registrars) don't measure up to Gmail or Fastmail. And Gmail is what people will be comparing it to.

True in the small stuff, but it's pretty ridiculous to say that the modern welfare state is the product of bureaucracy rather than democratic will. Look at polls of what voters say they actually care about.
There are plenty of Vietnamese/Hmong/chinese viet poverty in the states. And why San Jose gangs are mostly asian.
I think your gripes have nothing to do with the state of the PC industry. It's not like after calling Dell and not getting an answer to your question "How do I set up quad 4k monitor off a laptop", you say "Oh, fuck it - I'm going to do gardening instead". You are still going to buy a laptop because you need one.

Instead the major determinant is how good is your last laptop - is it good enough? In the early days computers used to get better very fast - so upgrading was required. Today whatever was built 5 years ago can reasonably run most programs of today, hence less need to buy new PCs.
Another device connected to the cloud sending data to the cloud and this time also sound. It was already creepy the learn that Netatmo, a _weather_ station, is recording sound. Because the company released sound profiles from the games during the FIFA world championship mapped to countries, regions. As they said, there is only a loudness sensor integrated.

But this time it is a real microphone. That makes it another "smart" device to hack in to, to be used by 3 letter agencies.

I know there are webcams. But then people know. I work with many non-tech people and engineers from different companies. I have seens, that the majority is gluing the integrated webcams. Even in my own company, almost everybody has glued the webcam.

Glad you're okay and thank you for the warning.

Could you provide any information as to what could be the possible cause of your heart attack? Your age, habits etc?
I said unwarranted. As in, not justified and not related to his recent anecdote.
Not at first but it's very likely that we will at some point.
Also, don't hesitate to push the medical staff a little. Two family members were told they had no sign of heart attack and spent the following night having multiple infarctus.
Great stuff. I'm just about to set a new Mac up, and I'll be following a lot of the advice there.

Nice summary. I wanted to clarify one point. Selective reporting (of publication bias or most other kinds of tests) limits the inferences that can be drawn from the analyses, but it does not necessarily invalidate the properties of the test itself. If my selective reporting indicates that 6 out of 7 articles appear to be biased, it would be improper to infer that 86% of psychology articles are biased. Nevertheless, those 6 articles appear biased whether you make such an inference or not. I think scientists care about the validity of specific data/theory more than about the rate of bias across a field. However, if you want an estimate of the latter, you can look at a paper I published that systematically investigated bias in the journal Psychological Science:

No. May I ask why you would prefer that? Is it a security concern?
Home automation and home security need more powerline communication and less app-wankery and IoT pipedreams with shoddy wireless protocols.
You don't have to single out Wal-Mart specifically. Just put in sensible inheritance taxes, raise the marginal tax rates on high-income brackets across the board, and raise the capital gains rate.
So Apple have known about this for a few days, at least. If it's as serious as it sounds, they'll hopefully have a patch v. soon, if not already; when was the latest security patch for 10.10?
Then be glad that someone else did not apply this principle to you.

After all, maybe someone out there in the world thinks that 1 person / km2 ought to be enough. Who's to say that you wouldn't be in his "TO TERMINATE" list?

The banking crisis was a result of de-regulation, caused by neo-liberal government agendas. After the great depression, the banking sector was stable and only became problematic again when the laws that were introduced after the great depression started to be dismantled.

I meant that instances where homeowners really win or lose significantly from rising house prices are edge cases. They exist and are common. But, they go both ways.

I believe that the mentality you are describing is generated by the system moreso than it generates the system. If people expected their £150k house in Norwich to be worth £125k in 10 years, the whole psychology would change. people would see houses as what they are. Things that cost money. Things you live in.

*I also think that all the mortgage encouragement is counterproductive. If 10 year loans were the norm, house prices would be lower. Own-to-let would require higher returns (7-9%) over a lower purchase cost, but housing as an overall cost to the people in the country would be lower.
I don't have WPS on my router (How else do you input the SSID/Password?) and I turn Wi-Fi off when I'm not in my house so this product would be a real hassle to setup/use.

It's hard to say for sure. I am a touch overweight and haven't been very physically active of late. Combine with age (41) and my stress levels, and I expect that explains a lot of it. Genetics may factor in as well.
> First, Firefox (and some others) are forcing TLS to use HTTP/2 : https://wiki.mozilla.org/Networking/http2 ; that's a big deal breaker for a lot of people. Yes, encryption is all well and good. I'll all for it! But SSL certs either cost money, or you get them from companies that will want cash to revoke them for you if compromised.

I was against mandatory SSL for this very reason, until someone pointed out to me that SSL Encryption without Authentication would be a better default than no SSL at all. Basically, self signed certificates should be the lowest accepted request, and authenticated certificates would be the highest.

If browsers showed the lock icon for authenticated certs (as they do now), and removed the big scary warnings for self-signed certs but don't show the lock, that's a much better default than what we have today.
Hello, and is it work at night all the time, or shift based? How was you experience doing it. Today couldn't do it myself, maybe at an younger age.

I don't think its shameful, I might have done it myself. Its a first world problem clearly.

Still I wonder about the legality, because in most countries there are laws that prevent workers from working at night all the time.

At most you make shifts, and workers do it one week a month, and not all the time for years to prevent long term health consequences for the worker.
I feel the problem is that security is often tacked on (usually by another company) and not an integral part during the design from the start.

If home automation and security are treated as merely parts of one whole solution encompassing your property, we'll have less friction between the two and you'll have far fewer instances where it feels as if just someone walked in and "installed security", which is literally what happened. I don't blame the engineers entirely for this as I'm sure there are instances where convenience and price (for the company) has scuttled many good ideas and sane practices.

A while ago, I posted my dream of what automation should look like https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6357753 It seems I'll be dreaming for a bit longer.

Looking at the picture on his LinkedIn profile https://www.linkedin.com/in/philliprhodes it does look like he may have been overweight. I suspect that is a huge contributing factor in this. I'm sorry if anyone get offended by this, but it does look like mindcrime could have been more proactive in looking after his weight. Now it's completely possible that mindcrime has some other condition which limits, or at least restrict his ability to do exercise, which makes trying to stay healthy a whole lot harder. But I would have thought for a lot of people it is caused by either: heavy smoking, heavy drinking, little exercise and a bad diet. Either way, I wish mindcrime a speedy recovery and hope he can return to good health as soon as possible.
So will it scale now?
Not to start a flamewar, but it really isn't a tough call at all. It's just that you got trapped in this debate-framing message that abortions are about freedom.

Thanks, me too.
6 lbs of broccoli at 23 kcal / 100 grams is about 621 kcal for $8, or 77kcal / dollar. A $1 cheeseburger is 350 kcal, so $8 would buy you 2800 kcal - and I'm sure there's products with even higher calories per dollar. (note this is off a random website, may be inaccurate)

You have to remember that for a nontrivial percentage of people - like the homeless - this is a survival situation, where 'healthy' has a much lower priority than 'calories per dollar'.
> Also being an old guy(tm) I worry about loosing the ability for humans to talk to these services or see the conversation in a textual way.

This is definitely a loss. It's real, it's unfortunate. But the binary-vs-text change is actually pretty minor: a well-crafted binary protocol permits simple tools that can be used to debug it.

The actual problem here is that HTTP/2 is highly stateful. Connection state, stream state, and header compression state are all required to actually reliably debug a HTTP/2 flow. In practice, that means either your HTTP/2 implementation needs to be able to dump its state, or you need to capture the entire session to understand it.

For my part, I will not mourn the ability to telnet to a port and type HTTP. In practice, that approach lacks value in most modern cases. However, I will mourn the loss of tcpdump as a single HTTP debugging tool. Your implementations now need to make debugging possible in their own right.

Please read what's on the site: "Nothing is recorded or sent across the network. Peace of mind, without giving up on privacy."

I appreaciate your privacy concerns, but not every device is the same. We are in an early stage of such cloud-based "smart devices", so we have to be careful as there are great conceptual differences between different products.
Wouldn't that require the use of threads, and hence be very expensive?

Get well soon. One of the biggest causes of death, especially for males is being too stubborn or too scared to get things checked out. Me included. Have a speedy recovery!
It would also mean that all of the employees have a lot more money to spend, a part of which they'd spend at Walmart. Wasn't it Ford who back in the early 1900 gave his employees a lot higher wages than other companies so they could spend more and thus raise his own profits?
While I understand your concern, it doesn't seem like they are actually sending the sound back across the network, which makes it substantially safer than things like Dropcam, which many people have installed and running in their homes.
Glad to hear you survived and are getting better.

When people say "start feeling chest pains" do you mean like WOW that really hurts, or hmm that doesn't feel right kind of pain.

It is just so casually putted that the level of seriousness associated with a heart attack makes it absurdly to be putted this way. Where I am from, in Romania, a heart attack is basically a death sentence. Regarding this, I have read an article recently[1] which stated that in Romania only 3% percent survive if they have a heart attack outside of a hospital.

The device is configured wirelessly using the smartphone app. It'll queue the events and measurements if your wifi is down, but I see that it will be hard for you to use if you always turn your wifi off when you are away.

There are two textboxes on the screen to be notified when it becomes available. I first tried the bottom one, and it gave me an "Too many subscribe attempts for this email address. Please try again in about 5 minutes. (#8715)". I tried it a few times after waiting a few minutes, then went back to the first textbox, higher on the page, and that one worked without issue.
But the article I'm responding to doesn't just say "I don't want tips, thanks", it's a long blog post that states quite clearly the author believes nobody can accept tips this way, that Bitcoin is useless, that anyone who doesn't love paperwork must live in a broken country, etc. It's not a simple position statement, it's quite the polemic! Meanwhile, lots of people are tipping each other apparently without problems.

Given this state of affairs, it seems a reasonable question to ask. After all, that's what this web page is for - discussing the blog post.
The subtle UI stuff makes for a great user experience. Were there any other sites that gave you inspiration for the user interface?

Doctor here.
The 'typical' signs of a heart attack are chest pain usually described as dull, heavy or tight, with radiation to the arm(s) and neck.
The patient often also complains of diaphoresis (sweating) , shortness of breath and perhaps weakness.

'Typical' signs do not present in everyone: in particular diabetics are at increased risk of having 'silent' heart attacks,
And chest pain that is not typical may also be a heart attack.

An ECG can rapidly demonstrate that a patient is having a heart attack or as we call them myocardial infarcts, and excellent intervention is often possible.

If the above condition/pain is experienced and there is not a clear ECG picture of a heart attack troponin levels are taken at 6 hrs, an increase f which will demonstrate that there was cardiac specific muscle damage.

Without wanting to alarm anyone, there is in the US 250,000 sudden cardiac deaths a year, almost all from a coronary artery called the left main blocking: this vessel supplies a huge percentage of the heart muscle and when it blocks there is no warning and the heart doesn't have enough fuel to keep pumping.. These patients unfortunately almost all dead on arrival.
There is very little that can be done to predict this as their first episode of chest pain usually results in death within minutes, and there are rarely indications that the patient is at risk of such a problem.
Would be nice to hear tips specific for mobile browsers. My site is going to be accessed mostly from mobile browsers (over edge/2G connection most of the times). No images only data. This is what I have decided to follow:

1. Make it ajax as much as possible to avoid sending requests for each operation. Try to keep everything in one page dashboard.
2. Keep the page/services sizes under 1500 bytes (Ethernet)
That's the type of things that would make remote work attractive to me, but working at night would basically change everything.

And do you recommend other sites as alternative to them where these things don't happen? Or was it all via contacts.

Because this seems to be one of the top sites for remote software development work and they put this in their welcome page, so I wonder if your case is not the exception.

Apple first gets you to choose between tiny (Air) or powerful (Pro) and then makes you choose one of two screen sizes.

Some good advice, some bad:

- image sprites are a terrible hack that adds a lot of complexity and maintenance effort to pages (though effective for loading/processing times)

- the best feature of HTML tables is still the automatic (optimal) sizing of columns when the content can vary, so fixed column widths are not possible where tables are most useful

Some advice they forgot:

- use a good caching reverse proxy (Varnish)

- don't litter your pages with ads and tracking pixels, they incur a huge slowdown usually

- don't use cookies if possible, at least not on the domains/paths all your static content is loaded from

- don't use loaded web fonts (except maybe icon fonts instead of inline images)

- don't use huge JS libraries if you don't need but a few features

- don't rely on JS libraries to lay out your page, having JS post-process your page after loading just so it looks as intended is a huge (visible) slowdown

I recently ordered an XPS 13 developer edition (comes pre-loaded with Ubuntu). I didn't particularly want a Dell, but the difficulty in finding an ultrabook with good, documented Linux support combined with Lenovo's slow decline (No function keys??? Seriously?) more or less dictated the choice. I'm glad it was an option, even though I'm merely ambivalent about Dell, and what I REALLY wanted was essentially a macbook air that didn't come from a company trying to force walled gardens on everyone.

For the record, I bought and returned a Galago Ultra Pro from System76, and was grossly disappointed by the keyboard and build quality. I'd like to support the small guys, but it seems the manufacturers of their laptop hardware (Clevo, etc.) haven't put out a decent ultrabook yet.
