< $10/year is generally if you go with a 3rd party seller. Trying to install that, as a non-technical person, is usually very hard.

The 1-click installations that are provided by the hosts are usually more than that.

Yes, even $50/year for a business in not that big a deal but so much of the market has international users where $50 is really expensive. There are also small time hobby/businesses where $50 makes an impact.

Should You Be Building Indirect Sales Channels? [Free Interactive Assessment]
Generic answer for humans: unconditional love.

Tactical suggestion for technical person with high standards: read biographies of overachieving polymaths and geniuses (e.g. Charles Pearce).

This will illustrate both the futility of inter-human comparisons and the critical importance of comparisons among all possible versions of you-the-single-human. To compare possible versions of a single human implies prototyping, which means "projects that suck" and "versions of you that suck". Thus, someone afraid of looking bad is ironically unlikely to seek/explore/reach their potential.

You are the project. What matters most are the side effects of projects upon you and other human beings, since these form a feedback loop which influence you and other human beings. There are projects/activities which require no technology, which can have profound side effects on humans.

Sure. But perhaps some of that frustration should be directed at legislatures that are too afraid of disrupting the economy and being blamed for job loss to criminalize the shady stuff giant banks do? Because one reason there's "one law" for people like Aleynikov and another for bank execs is that theft is black-letter illegal, and whatever-it-is we want to blame GS for might not be, yet.

One bias prosecutors definitely have is taking cases they think they can win.

You seem to find the idea of finding a "good reason" to be depressed a bad thing. I disagree. A lot of the skepticism around depression (and most mental health problems) stems from a lack of concrete knowledge about the cause and effect. We should be striving to use science and objective reasoning to determine the real causes of depression otherwise we won't be able to (1) accurately determine who really needs help in a world of limited resources and (2) provide a real solution. We should try to be understanding in the meantime but we shouldn't just accept that anyone can be depressed if they say so.

IMHO, there's no need for specific scenarios. From a benevolent desire to protect society against any upheaval, power becomes a goal in and of itself.

One player will worry about resource depletion while another about financial crises and yet another about terrorism. They'll find common ground in needing more power in general.

From their perspective, there are no downsides to implementing a capability because they can always choose not to use it.

Eyeo, the company behind Adblock Plus, is looking for web developers and Android developers: https://eyeo.com/en/jobs

We're in the middle of changing the world of online advertising for the better, and there's a lot of work to do.

Apply at jobs@adblockplus.org if you're up for this, we'd love to hear from you. Please include a list of your most notable open source projects or contributions - we're an open source project, so that'd be a very big plus.
> As xlib said, the screenshots were taken with the official client. I have a contributor who is working on a free (as in freedom) texture pack that we can use when we start working on the client.

A freely-licensed texture pack would be great, I faced this same problem when developing a different voxel-based game. There are plenty of texture packs available on Minecraft Forums or Curse but very few released under permissive licensing terms, or those that I could find were outdated.

So I made my own, feel free to use it or parts of it if you would like to: https://github.com/deathcap/ProgrammerArt - it is updated for and includes all items and blocks for Minecraft 1.8, available in "resource pack" (1.8-1.6), "texture pack" (1.5), and "stitch pack" (1.4 and earlier, prebuilt texture atlas) formats. It is not the greatest quality artwork I admit, but can serve as a decent placeholder, and best of all is released under CC-BY 4.0 so it can be freely used and distributed. Though if your contributor makes a better free texture pack I'll probably switch =) cheers
My electrical panel is in the garage. Knowing my existing plans to add solar panels, a generator and transfer switch that's the only place battery pack(s) could go. Except it will be above the max temperature for a good period of time, and even below the minimum other times.

Sure, there could be some trade off where it makes sense to add heat and A/C to my garage (and appropriate insulation) based on the economics. But, that's even more I need to spend.
NASA did acknowledge that at the power level the American team tested, thrust is generated in a more omnidirectional manner, which is focused into a directional jet as power levels are increased, so that might account for some of it.

This is the first time I've seen New Orleans on a who is hiring thread!
Nobody I've ever talked to that has worked in trading thinks _Flash Boys_ is a good book. There's a whole other book written as a rebuttal to it that is chock full of the technical details that Lewis' book lacks:

http://www.amazon.com/Flash-Boys-Insiders-Perspective-High-F...

--- and, if you haven't read it (do! it's great!), know that the objections aren't about the morality tale Lewis is trying to tell, but rather that none of the details of his case against HFT actually make any sense.

Another good book that is recommended constantly in these threads is _Dark Pools_. Dark Pools is also a great sort of rags-to-riches story about the emergence of the most important electronic markets from tiny startups; it's a good read.

Electrolysis isn't a Servo thing but a Firefox thing. Something that many of us have been waiting for also. From what I've seen with the way Servo works, it should be working in basically the same way from the beginning but I'm not as confident on that as I'd like to be. Since it renders and works on each iframe in another thread and each tab is implemented as an iframe with mozbrowser extensions I would think it should fix that problem.

Why you should never work for a start up
Right but I don't see how this detracts from my point. Also, often the models are very simple - it's the calibration to a particular market that is very expensive (the constants - which are then often hard coded for best performance). This is because calibrating it requires access to data from actual trading activity (not just tick data, I mean also information on say the chance that your order will be filled in a particular situation: information you can only get by actually placing orders of size in the market and observing when they got filled).

A property would be assessed at a lower value if it didn't have any HVAC appliances installed in it. Since most properties start with such appliances, replacing them or upgrading them to similar, or even more efficient models, is likely considered a nominal effect on property value, i.e. an act of sustaining the properties existing value. A real battery backup system, assuming one didn't already exist on the property, would be considered a significant addition to property value.
It could be you aren't getting the full effect at the lower wattage?

What is the ratio of wattage to thrust, that's what I'd be curious about? And how efficient is it?

I guess change in kinetic energy can never be greater than energy inputted to the device, correct?

Survata, San Francisco, CA

Survata sells consumer datasets to businesses. We’re a San Francisco startup attacking the $40 billion market research industry by making a complex & bureaucratic process into a simple & painless one.

Full-stack Software Engineer
Our systems are are more complex than they originally seem. From a survey-building tool, to an ecommerce platform, to an ad network, to a data analysis tool, our systems have to do a lot to deliver big value to our clients. You’ll add a lot of features in a short amount of time. You’ll build them quickly, but you’ll make sure you’re keeping the code base clean. You’ll build them from the DB all the way up to the CSS, with the bulk of the heavy lifting being in Javascript. Our focus is on keeping things simple for our clients, so you’ll take that to heart. You’ll work with our entire engineering team to bring our systems to the next level.

About you
* You love to build software that drives the bottom line for a business.
* You want to work with other smart, hard-working engineers to solve big problems.
* You have strong opinions about what makes a good API. You not only help build ours, but you’re a customer of it, so you’ll help keep us in line.
* You’ve probably used several Javascript frameworks, and can rattle off their strengths and weaknesses. (We use Angular, which we sometimes like and sometimes hate.)
* You thrive on the energy of operating in a fast-paced, ever-changing startup atmosphere.

Senior Backend Software Engineer
Our systems are are more complex than they originally seem. From a survey-building tool, to an ecommerce platform, to an ad network, to a data analysis tool, our systems have to do a lot to deliver big value to our clients. You’ll help set up our systems for the growth to come. It might be using memcached when deciding what survey to show to on our network. It might be automatically determining what relationships are statistically significant. It might be augmenting the data we provide with data from other sources. No matter the project, you’ll jump in with both feet, architecting it just enough to deliver in the short term and set us up for the long term.

About you
* You’ve built big systems that drive a business.
* You love data & analytics and can build systems that help shine a light on the story behind that data.
* You understand that your software runs on computers (but you architect things so you spend the minimum amount of time possible thinking about that).
REST, JSON, and APIs make you happy (even though the capital letters are annoying).
You’re not afraid to build all the way from the DB up to the CSS (even though you’ll spend most of your time on the server).
* You’ve used a lot of AWS services. You love some, are frustrated by others, and can’t wait to try the next one.
* You thrive on the energy of operating in a fast-paced, ever-changing startup atmosphere.

Really what's the difference. Either we can fit it in to our models or we have to change the models. It always bothers me that so many people in the scientific community speak of our scientific models of the physical world as if they were truth itself.

All models are flawed and only imitate reality by definition. We must accept that our models are only a glimpse of the real thing. We barely manage to grok our own planet let alone galaxies unfathomably beyond our reach yet we are consistently surprised when our models turn out to yet again be wrong. We know for a fact that our currently accepted physical models are flawed. To start with, we cannot fully reconcile gravity or "spooky action at a distance." The only reason our current models are useful, like any useful model, is that they are somewhat good at predicting a very limited set of future outcomes given measurable parameters.

Why can't we admit that what we currently know only seems impressive to a few moderately advanced apes but in reality it is likely only tiny drop in the bucket compared to the knowledge our universe holds.

All that said I'm very pro skepticism. Just because science is dumb does not mean every other random idea is valid. It's the common arogance of the scientific community that grates on my nerves.

The "inside players" are the ones who are empowered by the established order, so does it really surprise you that they all agree that the established order should be maintained by whatever means necessary?

It's here already, in Nightly: https://nightly.mozilla.org/
(more info: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Electrolysis).

I haven't really had the problem you're talking about in Firefox as it is, but you can try it out and see if Nightly is any better. Keep in mind that Nightly is slower overall than Firefox, because it has a number of debugging flags enabled that impact performance.

Obligatory disclaimer: Nightly has lots of bugs and quirks compared to Firefox, so it should not be considered indicative of the normal Firefox experience[0]. Also, many extensions have not yet been ported (which is why it's available in Nightly for developers before hitting Firefox).

[0] That said, it's pretty damn stable. I'd be using it for my daily browsing except that I can't live without Vimperator, which hasn't yet been ported to e10s: https://github.com/vimperator/vimperator-labs/issues/211
I really like how this sounds. I just really hope CSS is implemented with great care and detail. Right now - Firefox and IE has a lot of quirks, and I only find WebKit and Chrome to have it working well. I've been doing CSS intensely for over 5 years, happy to give my feedback along the way.
Bonanza.com in Seattle is looking for a full stack Ruby on Rails developers to continually improve the user interface, performance, feel, and other aspects of the site to make our customers happier, save time, and have more fun buying and selling on Bonanza.com.

You’ll be working in the full stack, from the mysql database up to jQuery and HTML/CSS. You should be comfortable receiving sometimes-vague bug reports, and having the doggedness to track down repro steps and make an appropriate fix. You should have the empathy to see problems from our customers’ perspectives and keep their needs in mind while building solutions. An innate sense of good UX design would be super helpful in this position.

Because we’re a small and close-knit team, attitude is a critical element in our selection process. The ideal candidate will be able to speak both "geek" and "human," and will approach problems with a "can-do" attitude.

Bonanza is a fast-growing (averaged 50-100% yearly growth over 5 years) and already-profitable company. It's fun to work for a winner.

In addition to a competitive salary and the typical bennies, we offer strange and wonderful perks like working from home every Wednesday, "Freedom February" (when we move the office to a tropical locale for the month) and on-site massage.

To apply, please visit http://www.bonanza.com/jobs

> votes for people who represent the majority of your beliefs

This is currently very close to impossible in the US. We have a two-party system, solidified by our First Past the Post voting system. I am forced to cast one vote for the candidate who represents my views the most, which ends up being about 10-20% of my views.

On top of this, once someone does get elected, our political system is such that politicians listen to the highest payers first, constituents at a distant second.

Going out and voting does very little. Yes, we should still do it, and not give up, but until we fix our broken voting system such that citizens can vote for people who actually represent them without the spoiler effect and until we fix our political system so politicians are accountable to their constituents again, internet activism, public shaming, and what comes down to basically pestering the hell out of these people is a perfectly good line of defense.
