I was referring to the commands to manipulate complex layouts. Take the following transformation for example:

+---+---+---+ +---+---+
| | 1 | | | 0 | 1 |
| 0 +---+ 3 | => |---+---+
| | 2 | | | 3 | 2 |
+---+---+---+ +---+---+

The tmux command to achieve this is "move-pane -s .3 -t .0 -v", which reads very natural once you know the options. "Move the source pane 3 to the target pane 0 by creating a vertical split in the target pane".

I then looked up windows.txt of the vim reference manual. In the window-moving section, we are given commands to rotate and exchange windows and move windows to the far left, right, top and bottom. So apparently I can achieve my goal by moving 3 to the far left, splitting 0 into 0a and 0b, exchanging 3 with 0a, and closing 0a. Which is why I always end up closing 3, splitting 0 into 0a and 0b and redo what I used to open 3 in 0b instead.

Also, how do you split 0 when you are in 3, without leaving 3? In tmux it is simply "split-window .0". Apparently there is no way to do that in vim...

Instead of consisting of a set of simple, powerful primitives, vim's window-manipulating commands are built from the perspective of special use cases. This makes these specific use cases easy but everything else hard. This is why I call them obscure.

>>From what I can see, CFS definitely can be cured by "some sort of emotional technique". It's just that a lot of CFS patients simply don't want to believe it

Sorry but this is dangerous and insulting to a lot of CFS patients. I wonder how far down you were as I've seen several examples of people driven to near suicide if they had the energy. These are people who are desperate beyond comprehension and will literally believe anything put in front of them.

You may have been able to hack yourself better but you are going down the route of victim blaming here suggesting "if only you believe it will work".

CFS seems to have a lucky group who recover and then become almost evangelical about their approach, thinking it will work for everyone. Often this treads dangerously close to pseudoscience and how they know more than doctors.

DIRECTV was indeed a purchase by Ted Weschler and Todd Combs, as Buffett wrote in the 2012 Annual Report (p. 15). They operate pretty much autonomously.
I doubt anyone is surprised that stock sees higher returns than Treasury bonds. A Treasury bonds is, arguable, the world's most secure asset. Consequently, it gives you the world's lowest (USD) yield.

Bonds, in general, are loans secured by collateral, while buying stock is just buying a slice of a company. Of course the former will have a lower return, as you only lose your principal if the company defaults. Whereas when you buy stock, you have no such guarantee.
I have no love for the military. I turned down a guaranteed job offer that pays twice what I'm currently making simply because I don't want to work on things that kill people.

That said, I can also see the other side of this. According to Wikipedia, the US government spent $66 billion dollars on the F22. I'm naive, so I think that we could save $66 billion on that by just not having an F22, but congress disagrees with me and I'm not sure that I'll ever win that fight. However, imagine that start-ups could do the job 10% more efficiently. That's six billion dollars that you just saved.

Now, imagine an entire government agency, like the Peace Corp, but purely dedicated to fighting human trafficking. You could fund that agency for fifteen years on that six billion dollars. If the startup is 20% cheaper, then you could have a second agency of similar size that is dedicated to helping people stop smoking. If the startup managed to be a full 30% cheaper, you can throw in thirty thousand four-year, full-ride college scholarships.

Again, I'd love to have all of that $66 billion spent on other projects, but even funnelling part of that into a different area could markedly improve the world. I'd never work for a start-up that worked on air combat, but I'd be thrilled to free up some of the air combat budget.

Heh, where they might make sense is in old apartments in northern Europe. My ancient building in Dublin uses resistive electric heat (about the worst kind of heating you can have unless you have abundant renewable energy). Really, I suppose I might as well be very slowly mining bitcoins or running servers instead of just getting no work at all for the heat I'm making.
I'm not sure if "better" is appropriate in this context; in general, semi-unification is undecidable. Type checking in presence of subtypes is decidable for simple cases (where types form a lattice), but the presence of polymorphism/generics makes it undecidable (Java [1], OCaml[2]). The type inference algorithms for subtyping are not that performant (an algorithm is described in [3]).

There is a law like that in most European countries afaik.

Of course the UK law might have changed a lot since I was a young whippersnapper.

Ask HN: Do you share UX ideas with your customer and team?
Hi there,

I recently talked to many of our users (https://userium.com/), which included managers, marketers, designers, developers and testers, about user experience design.

Interestingly, many developers said that they would like to be more involved in giving UX ideas, but often feel ignored.

So I wanted to ask what is your experience, do you share UX ideas with your customer and team? If so, how?

Thanks, Nina

On page 7 in the 2011 annual report, Buffett wrote that, as a long-term shareholder, he wished for the IBM stock to languish throughout the following 5 years. The reason was that IBM was planning large share repurchases, and the lower the stock price the higher the percentage of shares retired, and the larger Berkshire's stake would be in the long run.

I've followed through on your links and suggested reading and to be honest a lot of your conclusions are based on theory from a decade or more ago. Obviously there are still some proponents of this being psychosomatic but it's widely and rightly disregarded now.

I saw in one place that your your understanding of the illness was described as "6 months of disabling fatigue, depression, sleep disturbances, and/or GI problems"

If that's the case then I'm afraid I don't think you are really an authority to talk about CFS from the perspective of a former patient. That does sound like a stress related breakdown which happens to share many of the symptoms associated with CFS.

> I'll rather just stick to WhatsApp/Telegram

whatsapp and telegram also use google play services for background notifications. There is no other reliable way to ensure that messages are always delivered on both iOS (push notifications) and Android (Google Cloud Messaging).

Apps just don't get enough API access to do this on their own in a totally reliable way and even if they did, the overhead of multiple applications keeping multiple connections open (and the radio active) would cause a lot more drain on the battery.

Neither TextSecure not Signal use the platform provided notification features for unencrypted data though, so your messages are still safe.

I recently removed an app from the store; it had only a few thousand users, and made no significant revenue. It felt good to not have to worry about it anymore.

So my suggestion is: Shut it down. Write a short goodbye email to your customers explaining why you are shutting down, then remove it from the App Stores and turn off your servers.

A side project will always take some space in your mind and distract you. If you see no future for a project, there's no point to keep it alive. You built a nice thing, but it seems it is not comercially feasible. Stop, and concentrate on the next thing.

The Authenticity Paradox
I use spideroak. It has been very reliable and fast, but you have to actually want its main feature, which is secure (client encrypted) versioned backup. Keeping versions saves you from data loss by overwriting but it also needs more storage space. However, spideroak does it in a pretty smart way. I am surprised how little space it actually needs.

I've recently got a Nexus 6, and I have a bit of a love/hate thing going with the size. It requires two hands for practical use and (although still fits comfortably in my pockets) does take noticeably more effort for quick glances than my previous iPhone 4. But when I have to use it for anything more meaningful I'm glad for the decent screen size.

A companion device may be a welcome addition here.
Well one feeds into the other. Computer scientists just have no real use for them. They can't be straightforwardly modelled on a computer nor are they straightforward models of computers.

That isnt to say there are no uses of them in CS or that CS ignores them all. But many systems were invented to deal with explicitly philosophical problems (eg. modal logic for metaphysical necessity, para-consistency for paradoxes, etc.).

In some very specialized areas non-standard logics do get used (theorem proving uses intuitionist logic, AI/Machine Learning might use fuzzy, etc.) but its still a limited subset over all.

No doubt, in heavily mathematical CS departments there might be courses on logic in a more complete sense.

CS researchers do develop logical systems of a kind: in particular they have developed ways of writing logic systems programatically (and usually end up having to ditch a few things and thus invent a new system).

However if you bought any major books on logic (as a subject) or looked into any contemporary research in logic (as a subject, not "doing logic on an ARM, etc.") you'd find the authors were philosophers. Occasionally mathematicians, and esp. mathematicians who then became philosophers.
And then you need to store the queries in a database. Make sure we flush them out 'some time'. What happens when a client tries to use a flushed query? Something that previously works now no longer does.
