Agreed; it doesn't really make sense to use multiple keys if you're going to put them all in one agent. That's why the original post recommends using multiple agents at the same time it recommends multiple keys (and the author provides a script to make it easier to manage multiple agents)

You're right. And the arbitrary number 13 should have been edited out, as well, per the HN guidelines:

If the original title begins with a number or number + gratuitous adjective, we'd appreciate it if you'd crop it. E.g. translate "10 Ways To Do X" to "How To Do X," and "14 Amazing Ys" to "Ys." Exception: when the number is meaningful, e.g. "The 5 Platonic Solids."

The submitted title ("13 Amazing Places Where Women and Girls Can Learn to Code") kept the number and added a gratuitous adjective, which is a little like missing a "Wrong Way" sign while driving down a one-way street.

Well, remember that the proxy is really just a relay. If you email the proxied email address the registrant will likely get your email in their inbox. They might ignore it, but it's worth a shot as a first step. That proxy also might just be a honeypot for spammers, but it's usually worth the risk.

Don't worry Solomon, we still love Docker and will continue to use it :)

That being said, if they do somehow manage to get hardware assisted containment for containers, I see it as a no-brainer for docker to adopt it as soon as it is reasonably possible. Are there any plans (that you can speak of) regarding something like this, or are you waiting for LXD to be more than vaporware at this point?

In a narrow sense, yes, but virtually all investor returns typically come from a few big winners. For example, although many Y Combinator startups have achieved great success, most of YC's returns come from just three companies: Airbnb, Stripe, and Dropbox. If all an investor's winning startups exited at the ~$10m level, their returns would be anemic at best, and would quite possibly be negative after factoring in losses from failed companies. I think that's what the grandparent comment was getting at.

Ask HN: How to negotiate/reduce legal fees with big legal
We use Gunderson which is a big named law firm in Silicon Valley. We've raised some capital but we find their legal fees are getting outrageous. We blew past their $20K of deferred fees quickly and now are getting billed at high hundreds for every small task I have them do.

I've heard several founders who use different techniques to reduce legal costs including forcing them to notify you if they ever go over a certain $ amount or use someone over $XX/hr. Any suggestions?

Also, we've considered moving to a smaller office of 2-3 partners who charge substantially less per hour.

Any recommendations?
Not exactly. There will be couple of other companies in their portfolio which would shut down and the VCs would lose all their money. So they really need a big exit which would make up for all the other losses.
Yes, seems like a direct competitor to IronWorker to me.

IronWorker has a few benefits such as being able to run any docker container and react to a HTTP Post (webhook) directly, but overall very similar to Lambda.

Another thought is that you can check http://who.is. When you search there for the whois information, they have a history tab. Maybe the person that has the domain now has not always had the privacy protection on it. You might be able to get the phone number or original email address from that.

OK, but I don't see how git having those capabilities makes it inappropriate for cases where you don't need them.

I guess I can appreciate the single-file revision control thing, since that is something git doesn't do well. But, I am usually OK with a whole directory being under revision control.

All the other stuff is irrelevant, I'm pretty sure. Don't want branches and tags (I guess that's what "multi-fork" is referring to)? Don't use'em. Don't want multi-user? Doesn't matter, git doesn't lock files, and the user never needs to think about users if they are the only contributor to the repository.
DeLorean's name is still mud in and around Northern Ireland, where he's generally regarded as a fraudster. (Here's a BBC article: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/northern_ireland/4367473.... )
I'm not a particular fan of pie charts or donut charts, but the visualization used in this tool is actually helpful at understanding and comparing nested amounts.

The reason I don't usually like pie charts or donut charts is because it is difficult to make comparisons between circular shapes. In most places people use a pie chart, I think a bar chart would be better. It's easier to compare different lengths of rectangles than guesstimate differences of pieces of pies or half circles.

Something about this type of visualization with nested depths seems to be an outlier. If this information was portrayed in rectangles I'm not sure it would be better.
Yes, the vulnerabilities are kept secret. The value of an exploit decreases significantly after the vulnerability is patched, and they are in the business of selling high value exploits. If they couldn't sell the exploits, they wouldn't be finding the vulnerabilities either. Banning exploit sales won't suddenly result in VUPEN turning into a vuln finding charity.

For whatever it's worth, zeroday exploits are rare in practice. The vast majority of exploited systems are taken down with public vulns because they weren't patched in time. Very few organizations are interested in specific targets; carpet bombing the internet and searching for unpatched shellshock/drupal/etc installations will collect enough low hanging fruit.
>Barriers blocking me from getting work done

It took me too long to figure this one out. I had a habit of hiding what I was having trouble with because of fear of looking incompetent. Even if you're not actively looking for help on a tough problem yet let your team know. There's a good chance that either someone else has solved that problem or you'll pair up and solve it together.
They gave additional $10 gift cards on each purchase. So not only was this not based on conversion, it wasn't even based on uniques. Even if Discover okay'd the design of the ad campaign it seems pretty clear that everybody dropped the ball on ensuring it reached it's intended targets.
This looks great! It's familiar yet simplified! First thing I noticed was a hyperlink wasn't auto-linked to the address (may be intentional but figured I'd mention it). For example an email appeared with a link like "http://www.google.com" but I couldn't click on it.
The best way is don't because the domain owner is likely to demand a retarded price now that s/he knows someone is interested in it. They are hoping for an outrageous bid from a large corporation or government institution. IME, they are just not worth the trouble from a bidders perspective.

Many squatters register domains when registrars offer have specials like "50 domains for $10!" Those domains never gets renewed by the squatter and instead they are just hoping for one profitable sale. So it's entirely possible that the domain you're interested in will expire naturally and then you can pick it up.

Also, don't visit the squatters domain in a browser. The blank page is there to measure how many hits the domain gets to estimate popularity and therefore also value.
I'd be curious to know what prompted this retirement. Having moved from Google Checkout to Google Wallet, it's more than a little frustratingt.

Why Node.js Is Facing a Possible Open-Source Schism

I know that a lot of SQL is likely still C/C++, but MS does put a bit of effort into being able to be cross-platform. I don't know how much of SQL is tightly coupled to windows, but it wouldn't surprise me if MS wanted to they could do a linux, or OSX release.

Just look at SQL's installer for tools, it really seems to be a gui on top of some cli tools. Its' origins are in Sybase, which IIRC supported a few platforms early on. MS-SQL is a pretty good value compared to say Oracle. The management interface as well as scaling (replication) support is very well integrated. I've wished PostgreSQL could get to this level in the box for years now.

I think this has more to do with developer mindshare than anything, especially with Azure as a platform. If you can write .Net apps and run wherever it's very appealing. Even with Mono it was a nice story to have. Integration with system libraries to .Net is much easier than Java's JNI and the like. If I can write C# in VS and deploy to Linux as easily as with windows, it will likely return as my back-end of choice.

So, "when I need something easier to use" would be your primary use case for this? Which would mean that for someone that knows git reasonably well already, they would have no use case for this software? After all, learning a wholly new tool is harder than using a tool you already know.

I mostly worry about non-government entities seizing the opportunity to get rich thanks to cyber warfare, something like an anarchic internet that you can't trust whatsoever: industrial spying, selling data on a black market, etc.

I guess if governments slow down on surveillance, they will also try to reduce cyber criminality because the public decided that it's bad for a government to snoop.
That's awful! You should never even insinuate physical threats like that. You're putting yourself and others at risk by doing so and permanently harming your own reputation.

Look, I'm not hopelessly naïve (most of the time) and understand very well about standing up to what's right, but there's a way to do that without acting like this. Even if the person you're dealing with is a sociopath, even if they're terrible human beings, there are ways around them that don't rely to threats, real or implied.

Negotiation takes a lot of nuances, verbal and physical, but you can achieve a lot diplomatically without being intimidating physically.

I routinely buy domains I don't use - not to be a squatter but my imagination gets away from me. I imagine most HNers have dozens of domains they don't use. Someone emailed me recently for a pretty good one and offered $500, I countered at 3k and we settled at $1,500.

Most people will be sensible about it.
American law cannot impose responsibilities on a Frenchman living and acting in France. Correspondingly, American law does not extend rights to that person.

This is a design decision that parents have taught their children to believe is normal and sensible. It's also effective. Nothing like an "us vs them" mentality to unify a nation.

But what if some country tried to extend rights to foreigners anyway? There's nothing stopping anyone from doing so.

Does anyone know whether this has been tried before, and how the country fared? Can we look at the data? Did they fall victim to the foreigners taking advantage of the new rights? Or did they encourage a better world as a result of the reforms?

The tendency to exclude is practically ingrained into the human soul. Does it have to be that way? Are people so fundamentally wired to expolit each other that nobody can make the first gesture of acceptance without immediately being exploited?

Sadly, it's possible. But it doesn't seem like we should allow ourselves to believe that people generally aren't trustworthy unless evidence forces us to agree. Imagine living life without trusting anybody.
I think there's probably some CFML involved too?
Holy mind blowing awesomeness, this changes everything, yet I feel like this was such an obvious thing to do. So obvious that I can't believe it is real.

Wait, what? What theories?

I just don't think that politicians care that much about legalizing marijuana. Why would they?

And the other statement that I made is that legalizing marijuana isn't something successful politicians start out with alone. Usually that worsens there image.

Theories?

The other (unrelated) things I pointed out was that the US has a history of oppressing opposition, which is history. See the mentioned COINTELPRO. Known history.

Then I pointed out the the US overthrows governments in multiple ways. Also a well-known fact. Obama mentioned it once. The CIA released the documents on it last year. Nothing new. Known history again.

Martin Luther King Suicide Letters. That just was on HN. Official documents again. Again known history.

I am confused about where you see a theory.
It sounds to me like you are telling yourself a story: "I severely dislike working" that quite possibly is covering for other issues.

Such as: "I am not naturally good at everything, and this is contrary to my self image" or "I am not really interested in my chosen field, but feel like I need to stick with it" or maybe "I am depressed."

I'd suggest talking to people who know you, if you know people who can be honest with you and who you trust. Or maybe even try something like http://www.7cupsoftea.com/ which provides neutral people to listen to your problems.
This is because Core relies on OS/FFI. I think as long as it isn't using OS/FFI it can compile, although I may be wrong on that count.
I used to think I wanted to be a writer. I wanted to write novels and wonderful fictional worlds. The idea of crafting stories that people would eventually enjoy was very exciting to me. I tried and tried for years, but I could never write more than a few pages a week. I finished about 5 very short stories and started countless other shorts and novels. Eventually I realized that I didn't actually like writing. The actual act of putting words on the screen was never fun after the first page and a half.

So, I admitted to myself that I didn't like writing and no longer thought of myself as a writer. I know it's cliche, but it was like a very heavy weight had been lifted off of my shoulders. I didn't have to feel guilty anymore for not wanting to do the thing I thought I was meant to do. I was able to focus on the things that I actually enjoy the process of.

I was a little sad at first, and sometimes that feeling of "I want to write an amazing space opera!" pops back into my mind for a second. But mostly, it feels good to not feel guilty anymore.

If you don't like the process of making the thing you want to eventually make, just quit.

It might be a weird phase, but I'd say give quitting a try and see if you come back to programming. Once you quit programming, you might be able to better recognize the things you actually love doing, not just the things you want to have done.
