I am a 34 year old designer. It was an illustrative point of seeing what 3 days a week of HIIT and 3 other days of weights/cardio will do. Obviously at 34 year old guy who works at a software company won't be trying out for college basketball... or maybe I will! Is Stanford doing open enrollment? Do they have a basketball team?
As a high school student in the Bay Area, from what I see the problem lies within the system as a whole. Tiger moms and ridiculous amounts of APs aren't the cause, merely the symptoms. I'm not sure what you can do in Silicon Valley, when a bunch of parents who achieved success try to force their students down the same path they took. It makes logical sense for it to be Stanford or bust, when so many alumni live so close together.
Yes. It's a long term plan, and an illustrative exaggeration. I don't expect a 34 year old designer at a software company to actually enter the NFL combine. But I want to reach for my max potential over the next few years. I'm 34.

In some ways it's comforting that such an intergral part of all of our lives doesn't have to be branded and packaged in a way that's stylistic. It's nice knowing that this truly is a community project, and that it's an effort of people - not some megacorp who needs to market it to the highest amount of people possible.

Great work everyone who worked on this.
This is pretty common.

When startups don't sell for above their valuations, the investors are going to get their money back first (and in varying cases more, depending on liquidation preferences).

Pulled GetSatisfaction's tables from PitchBook, take a look at their B round: http://i.imgur.com/zUzDrFp.png

Post valuation at over $50M - no data yet on the amount of the acquisition, but if it was equal to that or less (or if the liquidation preferences for the A/B rounds were greater than 1X) it's pretty clear the founders wouldn't have gotten anything from the acquisition. But as someone else pointed out, it IS likely they got a salary from those early rounds of investors, which, is better than most startup founders see.
I got on the subscription way back. Took a while to get here for the first time, but now I get a guaranteed box every 4 weeks.

Are we thinking of the same Zendesk? The Zendesk I know is a public company with 9-figure topline revenue.
FYI the rightmost figure is a deeper green than the 2nd-rightmost one; they aren't the same color. It's similar to the difference (but not as pronounced?) as the difference between the pink and purple on the left card (which i assume is part of the intention of the color choices for the cards)
I'm not sure what you and the parent are alluding to but tech founders have been founding massively successful venture-backed companies since the dawn of Silicon Valley.
I believe embeddable is referring to the definition you inferred - that is, you can compile it into your application rather than running it as a separate service.
My thought also. The cosmic griefer sounds like a pGF problem, not an fGF problem.
It seems like here "embeddable" means it can be compiled into an app, as opposed to getting accessed through a server. Is that correct?

Yes

whether or not it is a good fit for small CPUs and microcontrollers is another characteristic that I can't comment on.
I use the Kindle app for Android because that is where the indie authors seem to be. I use the app in spite of itself. The Kindle app on Android has over the past few years been such a buggy piece of shit that I curse it's very existence. It alone has demonstrated that Amazon can't competently develop mobile apps worth a damn and made me laugh when I heard Amazon was making a phone.

Once a month Amazon seems to make a release that outright breaks a critical flow in the app. For the past couple weeks I've had to use the website to skim through books because every time the app tries to open the store view for a book the app instead opens Chrome with "about:blank" as the URL. /facepalm

I'll ignore the fact the tablet version gets a proper store interface (when it's not completely broken) but the cellphone version gets a regurgitated ancient web view that was last updated a half decade ago.

I can only conclude that Kindle isn't profitable for Amazon at all and they throw appropriate talent at it... that is none at all.

Does Apple give a rip about iBooks? Google doesn't seem to give a crap about getting indies on Google Play.
They prioritized previous customers first if you read their website. They will supply people who have gotten a soylent shipment before or are on a regular subscription reliably. It's just that first order as they scale up production.

But they got a bunch of funding recently and said that the delays should be going away soon for new customers.
A banana has 1.3g of protein. You would need to eat 50 bananas a day to hit the recommended DV for protein.

It might behoove you to sit down and review the nutrient profiles of your fruit diet. Just because they are uncooked and satisfy your palate doesn't mean you are getting everything you need.
Why should someone choose to read on Amazon if the experience is so hostile? It's a lament for a lost opportunity most of all.
It must have tanked pretty damn deep then...

How many customers at $1200/mo per shot do you need to feed 9 employees?
It's a blog post, that was an illustration to say my kids don't eat Soylent. My kids eat normal, healthy kid food. I sit with them when it's meal time. My wife and I are very conscious of their diet and do our best to be way above the norm for monitoring and providing kids great nutrition.
For what it's worth, once you're a customer, future purchases are fulfilled in 1-2 weeks (even if you've e.g. cancelled your subscription).
I also use i3 with vim and a browser as my setup, but I would always go for SSD more then anything. The whole machine feels snappier when compiling and running stuff, although I do back it up with 8GB of ram.
I posted above, but my wife and I are very conscious of how our kids eat, and they aren't ignored or sitting at the table, sad and alone. They enjoy a variety of meals, meal time, "social skill building at the kitchen table". We're even starting to make our 5 year old sushi (rice and seaweed) at his request after eating some from the store.
Have you used a Kindle? It's not small nitpicking, sometimes they layouts it makes are laughably bad and hard to read. Basic stuff that anyone who has read a book would notice at some point and it hasn't been fixed in YEARS.

What if they don't care about being observed? They just don't usually get close enough for us to interact with. And the craft don't need to be extraterrestrial. They could send a pin sized probe, and with advanced enough nanotech, build everything they need locally.

If they wanted to observe us at all, it would be most useful to not mess with the initial conditions, and just capture as much detail as possible. Then construct simulations with variations as needed.

If they truly don't care about being observed, they have sent probes interstellar distances to basically troll us. Which seems pretty juvenile.

Either way, they would then need to conduct a giant laser to report results back. And wait decades to millena as well. For what? Were aren't that interesting. And they could just simulate different starting conditions for organic life, and get their laughs that way.
According to the pricing page, Get Satisfaction's only public pricing is the $1,200/mo subscription. ZenDesk starts at $25m/agent for the community solution.

Granted, they are slightly different products; I was just grabbing the nearest competitor I could think of. (They're in the same space, though, and competing directly for the community/knowledge base part of their products.)

Wait, what? Shitty typography makes a book substantially harder to read.

With good typography, the color of text blocks is even and flowing, and logical structure of headings, captions, block quotations, etc. is obvious and clear without calling attention to itself. With shitty typography, the eye is constantly pulled away from a regular flow by the uneven color within text blocks or by distracting elements on the page, certain words or phrases are illegible and require scrutiny (in some cases, switching focus back and forth between two places on the page or even between pages) and effort to figure out, and inconsistencies impose a small but continuous mental tax on the reader.

Not at all, and there are VERY few people who use it that way.
Liquidation preferences exist to protect against a company raising $10 million for 20% and selling for $5 million, with the founders taking a nice payoff of $4 million and the investor losing all but $1 million.

In that scenario, without liquidation preferences, the interests of the founders and investors aren't aligned--the founders profit while the investors lose money.
You are of course welcome to not put your content on Dropbox, a private service run by a for-profit company.

They're adding a feature that they think the majority of their users will find useful, and betting that most of their users realize this doesn't increase Dropbox's access to their content: they could have written this indexing years ago and never disclosed it, using it solely for whatever tinfoil-hat conspiracy theory style acts they'd like.

If they lose the bet, they either pull the feature or go out of business. I'm betting their side, though, given that I expect most Dropbox users either don't care (which is their right) or care and made a willful decision to store their data on somebody else's systems (which is also their right).
The moment they mention left/right brain, lost credibility. How long does this myth have to be debunked before it catches up with the mainstream?

That was just a codename. Vista and XP (and ME?) are actual examples.
A similar thing happens fairly commonly on college campuses. A professor will use their unpublished book as a textbook for the class. Whenever students ask questions about the content of the book (which they no doubt will, eventually), the professor will then update the book and use it in another class until they receive little to no questions about the topics and it appears to provide a functional understanding of the topic. I know quite a few who will ask that their spouses or close friends work through the book, then will talk with them about the content and their understanding when they've completed it.

Liquidation is usually the multiple of the investment money, that the investor gets back before anyone else gets their money. Like earlier explained, later investors generally get senior rights to earlier investors; so they get their money out first.

Not a bad article, except for not gloating about how risible the NSA "multiple keys" proposal is. The author, Dan Goodin, presents the "tech companies" viewpoint, and the NSA proposal.

I'd have to say that the whole "objective journalism" thing is used here to give the NSA proposal more weight than it deserves. We've seen from the Snowden docs that the NSA isn't above lying, cheating, stealing, intercepting shipments, and did I mean lying to Congress under oath? If Goodin had pointed out how mendacious the "Intelligence Community" has been recently, and historically, Admiral Micheal S.

I stuck with my gen 3 kindle -- more memory than future gens, no ads, and the option of audio books (never used it). As technology progresses, I expect more not less. That said, it doesn't have the backlight and using a cover w/ built in light while the significant other tries to sleep? Yeah, no.

I've resorted to using a camping headlamp set on "red" (not as bright/obtrusive) when I want to use the kindle to read. However, I mostly just use my phone and the Kindle app.

Advances in the display beyond the gen 3 (first I bought) didn't merit any sort of upgrade for me.

Having those boxes delivered really saves a lot of time for me. The next step in time-saving should be automating the cooking with robots, not accepting that because we have no time we should take the pleasure and variety out of food.

In a utopian robotic future we'd all have robots cook our meals with the expert quality of a high-end chef.

In a dystopian robotic future, the robots would give us the most basic sustenance to keep us alive if they deemed us useful... and I'd imagine what they'd give us would be something like Soylent. If some people are happy with that, then I'm not going to judge, but personally I think we could do better.

The one big advantage of power architecture is memory bandwidth. Power8 has 230GB/s sustained on a 12 core chip while Xeon Haswell-EP has 102GB/s on 12 core. This means you need more parallelism (=harder to program) and more sockets to get the same speed on Xeons vs. Power8 for memory-bandwidth-limited problems (which >50% of HPC applications are). Power8 has I believe ~50% higher TDP than Xeons, so even in performance per watt for memory bandwidth limited problems, you are still ahead, especially considering all the components you need to power besides the socket.

TLDR; These things are for a specific segment of HPC, albeit the one that doesn't care too much about Linpack performance.

I remember after the Sun acquisition some suit from Oracle was giving a very cheerful presentation about business transformation and how it's similar to racing sailboats.

One of the points that he seemed particularly proud of was the strategy for migrating Sun business systems: turn them off and see who screamed. I guess one incident derailed all customer deliveries in Europe for a month, but who cares, they met their transformation schedule!

In many cases you kinda have to buy Oracle software. Buying the hardware is pure insanity.

I had been planning to launch a big, public campaign about Kindle typography to try and get Amazon to change her ways. But I came to the conclusion: why bother?

This is precisely the feeling I had right before I resigned from my position at Amazon. Though I worked at a subsidiary, not Amazon proper, the culture at Amazon everywhere can be absurdly stubborn. In the presence of a bad team, the "leadership principles" can be used for evil, and not for good. Which is why I was consistently told that bugs in software were OK if a majority of customers didn't care to call up and complain about it to our poor, overworked customer service teams.

Amazon thinks that it already has "the customer," in its most broad abstraction, already in its grasp, and doesn't ever need to fight to keep any of them there. That is why, when I departed my Amazon subsidiary in December of 2014, they were only just starting to hire a UX team. These principles can be made so dogmatic to the point of destructive company culture that outwardly resists change, be it to marketing designs or entire technology infrastructures that entire teams comprising hundreds of people rely upon to get work done.

This is why it is very hard to keep talented people in positions of management at Amazon.
