That's an acceptable selling point. Pull it to the front and center on the site. Do not just mention that it's better for collaboration, demonstrate it. Right now, copy on the site is centered on ease of setup which, to me, is a poor feature to justify ceding control of dev workstations.

Uh, yeah, I link to Mel's story in the Real Programmer article, at the top.
So as some other comments say, we discovered that this reaction was a thing at all! Once you put everything together, it happens very simply, in an easy setup, but no one had put together this setup because it's so unlikely and, according to old chemical knowledge, impossible. It's hard to describe just how much this goes against the grain of 100 years of chemical history, which all tell us that precious (transition) metal catalysts are absolutely necessary for these types of seemingly difficult transformations. This is like - to make a complicated pastry with layers and bubbles and flakes, it's a crazy bakery process, right, complicated and most people can't do it. But what if I told you to make the most complicated pastry, all you had to do was add salt and stir it up in a big bowl and poof - your pastry would be there? You'd laugh at me and say I didn't know anything about pastry-making.

The thing is, in this case, it's right - a potassium salt can indeed do this, which goes against this big assumption that chemists have been making for a very long time: that transition metal catalysts (the middle block of the periodic table) are the ONLY things that can do this type of chemistry.

So to answer your last question, the key new idea is "earth-abundant catalysis" - or the fact that we can do these complicated reactions with very, very simple, cheap, and common reagents - maybe the way that Nature itself does chemistry!
I haven't checked. Given it's 1295 yen a day after the 2000yen yearly membership I'd rather pay by the day. The month price is better after 12 days a month but I'd prefer to move around so I come at most probably 9 days a month and visit other places on other days.
Sutter's written that we should use "async" everywhere (even though conventional threads have numerous advantages) and that we should use "auto" everywhere (even to the point of writing "auto x = int{5}" instead of "int x = 5" and "auto foo() -> void" instead of "void foo()"). I'd take his advise with a grain of salt.

Looks pretty close to the MIT license: http://opensource.org/licenses/MIT

And using an existing widely known license has benefits, as in what is unlicense? This is the first time I hear from this, but I'm pretty used to deal with MIT licensed software.

I've been using this in beta since early march, if anyone has any specific questions I'm happy to field them.

Personal findings so far:

- Keyboard shortcuts are unparalleled compared to any other note taking app I've used (both desktop & web). Not needing to use a mouse to move around chunks of notes is highly productive.

- Safari seems to lose sync more often than Chrome.

- The design is really, really white. It took me a few days for it to stop hurting my eyes after tabbing to it from my IDE.

StartHereFM: A Podcast Network on a Mission
I have been conflicted lately on whether to be disgusted with computing culture or whether it is the most wonderful culture to have ever existed.

The macho bullshit that goes along with having a mastery of a particular coding style or some arcane knowledge of traceroute is not only unnecessary, it's stupid. It's a waste of our lifes. I'm 20 years old and filled with a lot of nonsense that I really have no business knowing, and even worse, the best part of my days are when I can get all giddy to smugly share facts that someone doesn't know.

"Oh, you REALLY don't know why traceroute uses UDP? Well it's because in the 80's some router vendors misunderstood the standards and their implementation didn't respond to ICMP. Isn't that INTERESTING?"

No, me, it's not fucking interesting. It's disgusting. Go talk to some members of the opposite sex and try to enjoy your youth, god damn it.

But this isn't just me, it's all of us. So in that sense, yes, I think computing culture sucks. It's nearly cultish. Every. God. Damned. Fucking. Day. Of. Our. Lives. we're checking Hackernews and Reddit, trying to collect more arcane bullshit.

Computing culture is almost like a collection (though more like a tirade) of memes. The story of Mel! The 500 mile email. The GNU manifesto. An opinion on Docker. An opinion on heartbleed and piping to shells. An opinion on X. A hatred of Y.

It's not a matter of improving function. Becoming a coder becomes more or less a part of who you are, and it doesn't really need to be that way. It certainly isn't as pronounced in other professions. These fun stories don't make you a better programmer, it's just masturbation.

At the same time, it's hard to criticize this movement. It might be cultish, and we might be collectively addicted to trivia and having opinions on everything, but in 40 years this industry has changed the world in ways that we could simply not imagine, and maybe you can attribute that to the technology alone, but I think more accurately you can attribute it to the passion of the people behind it.
In France we have a €19.99/mo plan with unlimited talk for domestic (land and mobile) and a huge selection of international countries (land), unlimited SMS/MMS, and 20Go of Data (yes, twenty). That plan can go down to €15.99/mo if you also go with this carrier for your home's broadband access.

That same carrier (called "Free mobile") offers a €2.00/mo plan for 2h talk, unlimited SMS/MMS and 50Mo data, which is €0/mo (free) if you're subscribed to their broadband.

Sam Altman has told me specifically why they didn't fund us the myriad times we applied.

Our founder split made them worried / didn't fit with their thesis. That seemed to be the only thing, based on our back and forth.

So, keep in mind that YC is looking for something very particular. It does strongly suggest however that YC is very open to taking teams they don't know as long as they fit their official and unofficial criteria. They make a serious effort to be transparent but they are also oberworked and are pretty much a black box to most startups they reject. They surely were for us, I just got lucky to get an answer.

When we make an accelerator, it'll also be based on a certain way of doing things. But it'll be very different. We believe that standardized platforms make a huge difference - YC has one as do other accelerators. But we have an actual software platform on which others can build their apps. It would be as if FB ran an accelerator program to develop new businesses on top of the FB platform. Our program could have actual measurable metrics to determine who is funded further and who is not.

This is already true. Both my wife and I had genetic tests done that showed which medications were likely to be more or less effective. In my wife's case it was a deficiency in an enzyme to break down folic acid and nothing to do with serotonin levels. Without the genetic test she'd still be taking the wrong medications.

OK, you've piqued my curiosity. I followed a very similar path to your own, but I have ended up as a C programmer professionally, and I'm curious as to what differences you see in the two languages. To me, they are essentially the same, give or take some syntactical differences. Functions and structs, direct access to memory, no classes, etc etc etc.

"Which apparently they do for most patients--so I wouldn't rule them out."

They work ever so slightly, over Placebo, and only for severest cases of clinical depression. They made my anxiety
worse, especially the heterocyclic drugs(Prozac).

There are many researchers who collated all the studies, and still can't find any improvement over Placebo.

I am so disgusted by this sham that was forced on Psychiatrists and patients by drug companies; I am too tired to cite links for my statements, but once you look into the efficacy of antidepressants, it is very depressing.

That said, if I was considering suicide I would see a Psychiatrist. Whatever treatment you are given, truly believe you will get better. Believe you will get better with Time.

The placebo effect is the little secret of all allopathic medicine, and alternative therapies. Most of you will get better if you just believe you will get better. In my world, the placebo effect is the only actual proof of a higher power(existence of God). I don't think there's a doctor out there who won't dissagree, with the fact that the placebo effect is the strongest healing modality they have in their arsenal?

I don't think I could find one Psychiatrist in the U.S. who honestly didn't feel most of their patients felt better because of the placebo effect, and time. If any MD wants to correct my statements; I would love to hear what you think.

(please stay off the internet medical sites because I just feel the mob can make you feel worse. See a good Psychiatrist(it's a crap shoot), and believe you will get better.

Antidotally--I have been very depressed' and anxious, and it does get better with time. I guarantee the stuff you worry about in your twenties; by the time you are in your forties, you will look back on those days and maybe--laugh. Oh yea, psychiatrists never tell young patients this; that debilitating fear of death some of you have--greatly dissipates later in life. Getting older sucks, but for some reason my anxiety and depression got better?

My only regret in seeing a psychiatrist was going on addictive drugs, but I had a complete breakdown. I went from being one of the better students in grad school--to a trembling mess. I came pretty close to being a shut in. I literally couldn't be around people without getting dizzy. The only drug that helped was klonopin, and alcohol to fight the panic attacks, and the placebo effect.
I have been trying to get off the benzodiazepines, but I did stop drinking.
"Companies don’t get sold, they get bought."

I'm sorry that the author's company did something screwy with a daily deals company and it didn't work out, but this is extremely bad advice.

For all but the most dramatic successes, companies are absolutely sold and not bought. Small strategic acquisition? Talent acquisition? Technology acquisition? Asset sale? None of those will happen if you don't know the potential acquirers and take the appropriate actions - usually backchannel mentions with a simultaneous PR push. If your startup's failing, and you don't have a plan to sell, you'll run it into the ground and you get nothing. With a plan to sell, sometimes you still get nothing, but sometimes you'll get a cushy landing, and sometimes you'll get rich.

The author's company didn't go wrong by trying to sell, it went wrong by getting wedded to a single company who wasn't really interested (nine months? come on) and by dramatically changing what they were doing instead of focusing on building a shiny happy narrative that could attract other acquirers.

No, the simplest thing to do would have been to use an actual non-restrictive OSI-approved license such as the standard MIT or Apache 2. CC0 is not OSI approved and is broken by design as it's a public domain dedication.
Just to clarify the "spin-off" companies are called mobile virtual network operators (MVNOs). We have a lot of them in the UK too, but in our case they are usually seperate companies (e.g. the Tesco supermarket has its own mobile brand which runs on the O2 network). Strangely they are usually cheaper than the parent companies too - anyone know how the financials of that work?
Nice. Now the question is how accurately you can timestamp the ADS-B replies. If you can timestamp them to within a few hundred nanoseconds, and have at least three (preferably four) receiving stations networked, you can draw a radar picture of your local airspace.
I didn't realise genetic testing like this was possible - it seems unknown in the UK (esp in the NHS). Can you share more details?

I get the sense that this article is saying something both simple and important, but I'm having a difficult time getting it.

Here is what I think it might be saying. Critique, please.

1. Web security is increasingly important, both in terms of data being delivered securely, and users knowing what has been done securely and what has not.

2. The move to use HTTPS as much as possible is a problem, since, if some resources involved in a web app can be fetched via HTTPS, but some cannot, then all-or-nothing browser security policies break the app.

3. An alternate solution is:

A. Regular HTTP should fetch things securely as much as possible, using Transport Layer Security (TLS).

B. Browsers should give the user a clear indication of whether all data related to the current display are being handled securely.

----

And my response:

I don't see why SSL vs. TLS is an issue.

What matters is, first, whether any given bunch of data can be handled securely, second, whether a fallback is used if it cannot be, third, whether the browser clearly and reliably informs the user of the security situation, and fourth, whether the user gets information they can understand and use.

Why then, is TBL concerned about which protocol is used? I don't see it.
Thanks for the explanation, this is illuminating

I'm still kind of unsure of why (Map m) => Int -> m isn't a valid type signature for this though..

RocksDB is also single-writer. http://rocksdb.org/blog/521/lock/

"write-optimized" means they take great pains to turn all writes into sequential writes, to avoid random I/O seeks and get maximum I/O throughput to the storage device. Of course structuring data as they do makes their reads much slower.

LMDB is read-optimized, and foregoes major effort at those types of write optimizations because, quite frankly, rotating storage media is going the way of the magnetic tape drive. Solid state storage is ubiquitous, and storage seek time just isn't an issue any more.

(Literally and figuratively - HDDs are not going extinct; because of their capacity/$$ advantage they're still used for archival purposes. But everyone doing performance/latency-sensitive work has moved on to SSDs, Flash-based or otherwise.)

"compact" doesn't make much sense. There's nothing compact about the RocksDB codebase. Over 121,000 lines of source code https://www.openhub.net/p/rocksdb and over 20MB of object code. Compared to e.g. 7,000 lines of source for LMDB and 64KB of object code. https://www.openhub.net/p/MDB
When I track my time scrupulously, the results are significantly different than what I thought they would be and also quite different from what, several weeks removed, I remembered re the project.

So, when I read an article that does back of the envelope calculations on time spent, based on rough estimates (20% on other projects, etc.), I find myself suspicious of the computed results.

The best coaches are not necessarily the best players.

Like in sport, coaches are good at pointing to particular aspects of someone's game, but were not necessarily great at putting it all together on the field. You find there's different coaches for attacking, defending, etc.

They all tend to have tried playing at some level, however. Even Mourinho was a senior player for a short while.

I suspect programming gurus are no different. They may get very good at shouting RAII or SFINAE at you, without being great at executing it in a large project.
How Does Shopify Make Money?

I think that it is disingenuous to say that because a fuzzer found certain obscure scenarios where there are issues that automatically everyone is going to be affected by it and that the database has no merits.

Also, if I have to choose a datastore, although marketing shouldn't be important, funding is and MongoDB has had some huge funding rounds in the past. This gives me a lot more confidence in choosing it.

There is another theory which states that this has
already happened.”
Regulating Cybersquatting (Domain Sharks)
I think in the world that we live in today that Cybersquatting should get regulated by the government. Some of the reasons I think this should be regulated:

1. Currently there are tons of startups out there that found a name, want to start their startup and then they get hold back because a domain shark just bought their name. These sharks then ask a huge amount of money just to annoy everyone out there.

2. .com domains are getting rarer each day and harder to come by. Because of these sharks there a lot of rare domains are out there just to be sold for a ridiculous amount of money, therefor these domains just stay "parked" until they expire again.

3. This Cybersquatting is exactly the same as selling drugs, only this time they sell domains. They pick them up cheap, get addicted to doing it so they keep doing it. With the sole purpose off making money with it. This is completely done in bad faith and does not contribute to this society.

Because of these simple points we are currently looking at a world that is stopping it's own growth. People will not have the chance anymore to "try" a startup idea and will get discouraged because of it. The .com tld and soon the .io tld will also become extinct in the years to come because of the huge growth of the internet and it's domains. Cybersquatting

I think that a possible solution to this would be to let the registrars put limits on the amount of domains you can buy. When buying a domain people should also provide their ID too ensure this limit gets followed.

I posted this here to ask other people's opinion about this matter and hope this gets resolved in the years to come.
