The Super Bowl is the only "Big Game" they refer to in the ads. Sure there are other "big games", but these are Super Bowl ads pure and simple.

Why not just keep environment dependent settings in a separate file that is not tracked? Then you have no problem with files that are 'half-tracked'.
I left a company in the early 2000s (quit, not laid off, if it matters). Then they needed help with something that I'd done. I was happy to help, at the highest hourly rate I could imagine asking for (probably wasn't enough, I was only a few years out of school)--paid up front, thank you very much.

I waited to start working until that check was in my hand.

I had friends who worked for that company as contractors who ended on a list of creditors. I wanted to avoid that fate.
I have the feeling that your cousins experience clouds your judgement here. From all that I've read the count of people who file bankruptcy multiple times is very low as is the count of people who file because of irresponsibility. There are usually very valid reasons (loose your job, get sick, good luck!)

For your example: That is exactly the reason that Kickstarter is not a preorder service, but project funding. There is always a risk that you won't get anything for the money you've invested and you are expected to consider these risks. That's also part of the reasons that professional lenders expect a certain rate of interest (another part of the interest rate is obviously for the fact that the lender could do something else with his money if he didn't lend it). If you have a higher risk, you pay more. So, if you fault multiple times you won't find anyone who will give you money anymore in the future or they will want more interest or they will want some securities .. and so on. I don't see how that somehow makes debt guilt. It is debt. Are you expected to pay it back? Yes. What if you cannot pay it back and you would be crushed under the weight of it? Don't pay it, go bankrupt and your lenders will have to pay the price of their risk-taking.

My point stands that there's a reason we've abolished debtors' prisons: Debt is not guilt.

Well to be fair, borrowing with interest works really well only in the presence of endless growth.
It's interesting but not an entirely accurate picture. It may be accurate for some VCs but definitely not for all of them or even enough of them to state this with such confidence and as though it is the rule rather than the exception.

Depending on the VC you could be looking at former technology entrepreneurs that have sold their business(es) and are re-investing the proceeds, collectives of those, VCs run by financially savvy accountants or similar that work on behalf of a usually much larger number of LPs and so on. In fact the number of VCs that have institutional partners such as teachers unions is probably relatively low because of the fact that the 'risk profile' of VC is higher than what those institutional investors can stomach, though if a VC were able to raise capital from such a source they'd definitely go for it.

So that doesn't mean it doesn't happen but it's not the structural motor behind the SV capital engine, just like your average pension fund isn't going to go to the casino with their holdings, it would be against their fiduciary duty to do so, and quite a few pension funds are already in trouble with their more risk averse investments done in the past. The last thing they need is to go for an even riskier bracket of investment.

I think it would need a bit more evidence before I'd be convinced that this is the case, it runs directly against what I know of those venture capital companies that I've looked at in the past.

> [...] selling ads isn't evil and they have no intention or incentive to violate anyone's privacy

Depends on your perspective. Take eating meat. A butcher doesn't think that selling meat is evil, but I'd bet that cows would.

I've done work in advertising, but it's now on the list of things I won't work on. The basic purpose of almost all advertising is to manipulate people into buying stuff. I've come to see that manipulation as immoral. I think it's also an enormous waste: so many bright, creative people putting their lives into something that produces no net systemic benefit. Advertising is an arms race between companies, and we could re-purpose circa $1 trillion annually if we declared an armistice.
Unless of course, you realize you need to optimize that particular use case... then you implement that ideality as a special case. ;)
> The trick is you need to live somewhere. If you can't have a loan, the money goes to rent.

The difference is that a landlord wants a tenant who can actually pay the rent, but banks often hand out loans that are far more than the new homeowner can afford.

If a tenant can't pay their rent, the landlord will have to go through a long and painful process to remove them and find another tenant, and they'll likely be out many months of rent in the process, with nothing to show for it. If the bank doesn't get their money, they own the house, they get paid whatever costs they can't recover by PMI (which the former owner had to pay for), and they can potentially offer a loan to the next sucker to buy that same house.

You're saying there is no other event that Dorito's could possibly use an ad about "The Big Game" for? That's incorrect, and that's my point.

Why make an ad you can only use once, when you could easily tweak it and be able to reuse it? Like you said, its not like anyone won't know you mean the Super Bowl, when you're talking about the big game on Super Bowl weekend.

"Facebook sells your data" was always a stupid charge. Why would they give away their most valuable asset when they can make more money by renting indirect access to it (targeted ads). There are actual data brokers who do sell your data and none of them make anywhere near what Facebook makes. Facebook actually has an incentive to protect your data.
Thank you for the hint; somehow the change doesn't apply to printing though.
Yeah... the thing is, some of us have had a higher standard than that for generations and are now being sucked into the abyss of corruption under the flag of the EU.
Yeah I could see this function well if you have some option to set all tasks on the same level. Atm it feels kind of confusing though, and especially the "bubbling". I made this structure, then added an estimation to subtask 2-1-1, and all the other estimations were filled in. I didn't understand at all what was going on at first and thought I had hit a bug.

Is there a startup to build a super human?
Human can fly to Moon, Mars, outter space, creating many kinds of high techs,
When and How we Human can enhance our self like the super hero in movie!? Isn't it
the more eager hope than most other high techs? Just see how many super hero moive
there are. And we all love super hero.

"The World need Superman. " I always remeber this sentence in Superman Returns.
Our world is turning into more and more bad world, We don't trust each other any more,
Everywhere is dangrous, Every man is not safe man, Every Country, race, religion are all
dangrous to the other side. Except for family, techs, foods, we have nothing more.
If there is benefit, we will exterminate each other. See Walking Dead. Seens no hope left.
So If there is no such thing like Superman in the real world, we should build one,
we can build a just example. It is the hope.

I always think how long before we can see the man fly in the sky like Superman, Spiderman.
I have dreamed many many times flying high in the sunny clouds. Many people must have the
same experience. I Know fly high can't make bad man kinder, but think if you can fly
(or other super power), good man must be better, and you will using your power for good, many
unfortunate will be saved, and that is just a start, start of a beautiful new world.

Then in our short lifes can we do more for the beautiful dreams?

Passing on costs is a long term pattern. Relatively recently (40 years or so - I did say 'relatively') United States' Congress' changing of the defined benefit (DB) plans to defined contributions (DC) was a prime example (ERISA - think 401K here) and now some in the USA's House of Representatives are trying to get out of bailing out State's shortfalls for State's DBs: http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/BILLS-114hres41ih/pdf/BILLS-114...

Not likely to pass, necessarily, but a sign of the times.

Citizens of countries with Central Banks live in debt-based economies, and thanks to many of the recent gyrations to "correct" some of these economies, more currency has been created. To me, this is another reason to consider raising rates even higher, to offset the weakening currency.

But I can't see a situation in which Facebook turning on a mike to record conversations is not a huge violation of privacy.

Do they do that?

FYI, this is mentioned in the article. It also linked to this article on that specific issue:

http://www.forbes.com/sites/kashmirhill/2014/05/22/facebook-...

Short version: It's not as simple as "they record all your conversations", but yes, they can and do turn on your phone's mic.
And Google Now keeps prompting me to turn on more tracking and history settings. Despite me opting out each time, I guess if they just keep asking, they'll trick people eventually.
I almost always find thoughtful discussion of how to write and convey ideas to be inspirational. Lyn Dupre's book, Bugs in Writing (http://www.amazon.com/BUGS-Writing-Revised-Edition-Debugging...) is good about some of the mechanics.

Likewise, thoughtful articles about how to structure and write good computer code are almost always interesting.
> If it did, poverty would all but disappear; it's hard to be poor when you have your own house.

I disagree. It's not so much a case of having, as a case of owing, a lot of money. Direct experience from my own family, it's really really easy to make yourself poor when you have a mortgage - because you can remortgage. And way too many predatory lenders are more than happy to let you do that until you owe more than the value of your house. Having a house makes it easy to borrow too much because you have an asset you can leverage and that way too many predators will let you leverage terribly.

I agree with your comment in general, it seems reasonable - and I'm sure things would be better if everyone had their own house. But that wouldn't stop people being poor, not if their house came with tens of thousands of debt and they could leverage it to borrow more.

PyDark – 2D Game Framework
Core Engineer at VC-funded open-source project, Weaveworks, London

Weaveworks is a start-up founded by the team that created RabbitMQ and backed by one of the world’s leading tech investors. Headquartered in London, we are hiring engineers to work on our open source software product, Weave.

The purpose of Weave is to enable all developers, no matter what their background, to take advantage of container technologies such as Docker and build better software applications. We believe that containers will lead to much more software being built at greater speed and scale than ever before, so much so that many existing approaches will need to be reimagined.

We have an experienced team and welcome newcomers who want to progress fast, as well as domain experts in relevant technologies. Currently Weave is a set of network services written in Go, packaged to make distributed Docker applications much easier to construct. But we have considerable ambitions, and the space is evolving rapidly, so we especially seek developers with the right outlook and ability to adapt.

Ideally you have real world experience of building and running systems with a focus on resilience and uptime. You are as comfortable designing or debugging a distributed protocol as you are talking to customers building a web app or scaling a data service.

We hope to meet developers who share our values:

- Complete focus on the simplest possible user experience

- A real desire to innovate, and then measure success by happy customers not kudos from purists

- Relish being held accountable for work quality, but want to own how that work is done

- Want to participate in shaping the culture and technology of a fast moving company

- We communicate clearly and we respect everyone who uses our software

In short, you would be working on a highly visible and ambitious open source project with all the opportunities and responsibilities that come with that. We aim to be a market leader and want people who really feel they could be a big part of the team making that happen.

> I like C++, but I don't see the opportunity where to use C++14 outside hobby projects.

Sure, but I’ve encountered some notable exceptions: LLVM projects (C++11), Playstation 4 games (C++11/14), QT5 (C++11) projects, et al.
Thought about it - yes. Tried anything - no. We have no idea what an SSD's FTL is doing under the covers, and no way to find out thru a SATA/SCSI command interface. Trim and hole punching are no advantage - it's not safe to do them before a page may be safely reused, as soon as a page can be safely reused, we'll probably be writing new data into it.
Why are you removing responsibility from the debtor? It's just as much the fault of the creditor to give the (maybe unpayable?) loan, as it is for the debtor to take/agree to it.

On the one hand, the debtor pretty much ends up stealing. And on the other hand, the creditor took a too-risky loan without considering the repayment ability of the person he was giving it to. We're conditioned to think this as some sort of cruel injustice (and it is indeed a sad situation), while completely ignoring the actions of the debtor.

You could go one step further and say that perhaps the debtor was committing fraud by tricking the creditor into giving out the loan when he knew the chance of repayment was low. (Assuming debt-slavery wasn't the goal of the creditor in the first place). Also exclude accidents and life-altering events (corner case). I'd imagine that after a few of these horrible incidents came to light in a connected world (i.e. modern times, not centuries past) creditors would start adding clauses into their contracts about possible re-payment plans/options, etc. Hell, they might not even offer to give the loans out if they were too risky.

If there is one thing I'd like individuals to take from this comment, it's that laws and regulations aren't the only solution to society's problems. I'd argue that they merely "mask" away the problems, without ever giving individuals a chance to resolve it amongst themselves in peaceful and non-barbaric ways. This is true now more than it has ever been in the history of our world, with the advent of modern communications and the internet. At least, give it a brainstorm/thought next time you jump to government intervention for any perceived injustice in this world.
It's a shame the article missed them, but while they may not be as prevalent security and game programing do have their own academic departments these days. Often times they are placed under the "CS department", but that is to be expected. Astronomy, theoretical physics, soft-matter and applied physics all share the same department as well.

Computational Science is a bit of an outsider I have noticed though. It varies by university whether it is math, physics, computer or general science. Probably because it occupies the cross-roads between these.
Be gender neutral, some fathers might find title a bit offensive.
That's my point - no tweaks are even needed. Why can't I show this same ad, exactly like it is, before e.g., the UNC vs NCSU game?

I could! Unless I did something ill-advised, like saying "Super Bowl", which in fact does only refer to one game.

Temporary archiving
If you're planning on scanning all of your web apps at scale, you probably want to know what you can find and what you'll miss.

As for competitors, I think there is WavSep but I'm not sure how suitable it is for Yahoo's use case (it looks like an overgrown J2EE app). People involved in that project infrequently rank scanners on their blog:

* https://code.google.com/p/wavsep/

* http://sectooladdict.blogspot.ro/2014/02/wavsep-web-applicat...

I have the feeling that the Yahoo bug bounties are about to get a whole lot harder to claim.
Never tried that, but I'd guess that is what Win+x pops up? If you don't use that so far, it's quite useful.
