Has anyone gone through the horror of doing things like installing python or mysql on a windows machine? Maybe it's easier nowadays, but last time I tried installing python I had to follow multiple tutorials, one of which actually worked. Installing mysql was a little more pain-free, but still too much work.

Also the lack of a linux/unix/whatever shell in windows? There's no way to measure the infinite utility in having a shell at your fingertips on a mac. I use the shell everyday, not sure how anybody could get on without one.
By that logic if we had 10 IP addresses we still wouldn't run out of them if we just could trade them freely. It is pretty obvious why that does not really work.
I was thinking something similar. I immediately thought, "wait, doesn't a speed change imply a force on the bearing, and wouldn't that necessarily imply friction between the bearing and track?" Under load (and I've no idea how much), I just imagine this applying a subtle little ba-dump-ba-dump-ba-dump to the bearings as they spin around.

Their innovation seems to suggest that this is such a small change that it has less of a bump and more of a very slight shape change effect. So there may actually be something there - I've certainly seen stranger topological results. But until I see one after a few thousand hours in a high speed motor, I'll be on the fence.
You can do that when the HTTP call is simple, when you need some logic in the rate limitation ( auth, login ect... ) it's impossible.
There's a really good chance this is a "new" Microsoft. Gates and Ballmer were the "old school" Microsoft that only thought that obstructing the competition was the best path to success. The new CEO Satya Nadela built the Azure platform, the most "open" technology that Microsoft has. His mantra is "mobile first, cloud first". This outlook is the opposite of Ballmer's, which was to drive everybody back to Windows.

Microsoft is now a multi-device, multi-technology company that is focused on getting their software and services on as many platforms as possible. The cloud and their services are their future, if they cannot make the transition to interoperability, they will collapse. Prior to this, Microsoft was structured in such a way that everything depended on their OS, so Microsoft declared war on OS/2, Linux and MacOS.

Windows sold Office, and Office and NT sold the enterprise market.

Now, any platform sells office, mobile and desktop. Windows sells Microsoft's cloud services like OneDrive and Office 365, but so does OS X now. NT drove enterprise revenues, but now it's Windows Azure running Linux or Windows, either way Microsoft makes money in hosting it. For consumers, Windows licenses were a cash cow for Microsoft, but Apple has set the price of Operating Systems to $0 with their upgrade policy, now Microsoft is following with free Windows 10 licenses for a year. My guess is that they will bundle Windows licensing as a service that gives you access to Office , XBOX Live and other Microsoft properties, so it will is less of a Windows license and more of a Microsoft Experience license. Either way, if you use Microsoft's services on any platform, Microsoft will still earn their revenue.

To sum that up, Microsoft's interests are no longer in opposition to the rest of the computing market, it is in alignment with it due to their multi-platform strategy. They are in a position to more easily do things to earn your trust, as those things will also add to their revenues.
I notice that I don't really care about Firefox anymore. Servo will probably be really cool, but until then I'm not excited.
http://phabricator.org is actually really great. It started in-house at Facebook. We've been using for the better part of year and I absolutely love it's code and design review tools. It also has a really nice CLI for managing your different reviews. Oh, and you don't have to worry about actually hosting the repos yourself (not worth the headache to me), you can just connect it to your github repo.

Don't be scared by the fact that it's done in PHP. It's actually really well done is very active in bringing out new updates and features.
Is there any way to purchase IPv4 addresses as an investor? It seems like they will be an appreciating asset over the next few years, if you are willing to make the gamble that IPv6 adoption will be on a longer timeframe, rather than a shorter timeframe
They explain the balls spreading apart as they accelerate rolling down the bump. What about the balls compressing as they go back up the bump? Wouldn't the balls constantly collide and separate?
Why does this exist in the first place? How do you justify showing ads?
No, because every time I interact with something they make, it's a crappy experience. Documentation is awful. Everything they do is crazy verbose and feels overengineered and underengineered at the same time, somehow. Windows is unpleasant to use every single time I dip my toe back into it.
If they are retained, it's usually a selling point.

But an appropriate response would be-- 'reports to the VP Engineering, will share full details once we've had a live conversation and decide to move forward'
Can second that, gogs is great. It takes 5 minutes to set up and the source is all on github.

>everyone is cut out for the startup lifestyle

I would not wish startup lifestyle on anyone and I don't advocate for that. I may have been unclear, but the engineers in question are exactly the kind of people who don't need to take outside investments and are able to bootstrap (as in use their own funds and rely on immediate/eventual cashflow).

They would have the independence, resources and authority to create self-sustaining social enterprises ( maximizing social impact rather than profits for external shareholders.), rallying supporters around their mission.

Seeding acquired knowledge back into the ecosystem is an orthogonal/complementary activity and depends more on their employer. I am not sure we can encourage the engineers to do that. Also, while sharing innovation "blueprints" is definitely a net positive for the ecosystem, I think it disproportionally benefits the megacorps, while indies and middle-sized tech businesses are being slowly squeezed out. The web is becoming more centralized and I am wary of that trend.
You mean the guys that torpedoed DNT and are sabotaging WebRTC standardization?
I've always been in favour of transparency around salary and compensation. So, I'm not hugely perturbed by this.

It's a bit strange when it's done piecemeal, though, and without your knowledge - I jokingly asked my boss "is that my job listed on the wall, or are you hiring someone to replace me?"
How do people find and respond to any mention of their company on HN? I get why you'd want to, it's fantastic PR to seem/be so engaged with your users, but where do you find the time? Is there some monitoring service that notifies you whenever any keyword is mentioned on social media?

> And people do not care about these kind of environmental issues. Just look at how relaxed people are about vehicle exhaust.

People do care, but maybe not most of the general public. You could argue public apathy is only because they are not well-informed, however.
No, again ;-). Its freshly roasted, freshly ground, AND freshly brewed (at the right parameters). That's the gist of it, but of course the quality of the greens before roasting, the roast quality, and grind consistency all come into play. Also don't forget to use good water.

In short: quality in, quality out. Any discrepancy of the above will lead to a sub-par result.

It's "lo and behold". Lo is short for look (archaically loke).
For the 2 specific cases you've mentioned, there are installers for both Python and MySQL for Windows. You could even use the unoffical Windows package manager, Chocolately to get them.

As for the lack of a *NIX shell, PowerShell is an acceptable alternative, but with both GoW and msysgit, it's easy to use the most common shell tools.
I will investigate.

Thanks for the heads up.

Add some load to that as well. It seems pretty unlikely any indentations will last very long under stress.

I've replaced bearings on trailers and vehicles and they often have wear marks deeper than the indentations they showed in that video.

That seems like to right answer to me.
But here's the thing: while a broken ankle may not be routine for you, it is routine for pretty much any orthopedist.

It's simply not sustainable to have every person in the NY metro area all want to go to the same hospital when they break their ankle.

But if you want to understand the real problem, ask yourself by what criteria is the "foremost orthopedic hospital" considered better? I know this will sound insane, but most medical quality metrics for hospitals and doctors don't take patient outcomes into account. Due to a combination of HIPAA rules and the way follow-up care is often performed by practitioners from multiple hospitals/private practices/therapists, it's nearly impossible to track patient outcomes even if you wanted to.

So if the quality of a hospital isn't determined by patient outcomes, what is it determined by? The government uses a combination of patient volume, malpractice claims, accident rate, rate of hospital acquired infections, cost efficiency, scheduling availability and survey data (they're more concerned about cost effectiveness as it relates to Medicare than anything else). For any other source, the hospital probably just paid a bunch of money to be listed in the top spot on a "top orthopedic hospitals" list.
For general rate limiting, yes HAProxy or Nginx make more sense.

Having different rate limits for different endpoints becomes unmanageable in HAProxy/Nginx; and having different rate limits say across different plans or users is all but impossible.

I use one daily, I replaced my macbook pro with the pixel 2. I also use a Toshiba Chromebook 2.

I use node, ruby, postgres, redis, rvm, nvm, terminator, atom, and smartgit.

I have tried sublime and visual studio code also and both work, I just prefer atom.

All programs I have open in their own window or tab and use chromeos native browser for web browsing and dev tools. One exception is smartgit. It spins up multiple processes and I haven't figured out how to run it without running a full Ubuntu desktop.

If you plan to try it out install crouton with xiwi,extension targets and use xiwi to open the programs.

Taxi companies may fight regulations, but they don't flout them.

If the city says, "We want 500 accessible taxicabs next year", taxi companies may say, "How about 200, five years from now?"

Uber has gone out of its way to earn all the negative stories about itself.
We'll never run out in the sense that it will always be possible to buy one if you have enough money. Just like we haven't "run out" of, say, original Apple ][s - if you really want one, and can pay enough, you can still get them in the open market.

Doesn't mean they're available at a practical price for most endeavours though. At some point it's going to become cheaper to use IPv6 than to buy from the limited pool of IPv4 addresses. Indeed for some use cases it's already there.
Many commenters are talking about how they handle/manage this, generally by replying to the recruiter in some fashion.

Of course that possible new discovery would be more interesting, what are the chances though? Since I'm in film/animation backgorund I am rooting for a possible recovery of a lost Sophocles play :)

From what I remember (it's been awhile), wasn't the villa that scrolls were found in not completely unearthed - with a possibility of more scrolls inside? I think, from what I remember, that these 1800 or so were found in a crate (in a part of said villa) people were trying to rescue while Vesuvius was doing its thing, leaving the possibility of more crates or even a full library still buried. Getty, I think, build a replica of that villa in Malibu.
I had one track down the phone number for my employer, call here, and ask the secretary to speak with me while refusing to say what the reason was until he spoke with me.
I quite disagree with the premise of this quote for the following reason. When commercial product is being built, external requirements and interests are imposed on founders and their aspirations to create interesting/innovative software will be subverted by the need to compromise. However, the essay addresses this problem.

The engineers have the opportunity not to take outside investments and run their companies as they see fit. I believe that those bootstrapped companies would bring more social value than startups who are restricted by the boards, investment agreements, valuations and competition in high risk, high yield markets.

Happy 20th Birthday, Java
I know, and I'm aware that this is somewhat controversial. I'm currently preparing a detailed write up including some theory. I would maintain that it's a subjective view of a planar universe that shares most, if not all properties and implications of a first-person position. To me, the problem in terms of terminology is that we've either to create a new class for this with just a single member, like "Ptolemaic multiplayer shooter", or we try to find the best fitting class that's already in use, even, if we might have to restrict the term somewhat.

(This is even more of a problem, as it predates anything alike by 10 years and it's therefor not part of a tradition.)

"Neoliberalism is the defining political economic paradigm of our time - it refers to the policies and processes whereby a relative handful of private interests are permitted to control as much as possible of social life in order to maximize their personal profit. Associated initially with Reagan and Thatcher, neoliberalism has for the past two decades been the dominant global political economic trend adopted by political parties of the center, much of the traditional left, and the right. These parties and the policies they enact represent the immediate interests of extremely wealthy investors and less than one thousand large corporations." ~ Noam Chomsky, 1999, http://www.chomsky.info/onchomsky/19990401.htm
WinRT and Metro was kinda an attempt of what you describe. NT as a kernel is not that bad compared to eg. classic MacOS that it would be in dire need of replacing. Longhorn and WinFS also was supposed to provide a new paradigm, but that didn't really pan out and we ended up with Vista...

It seems the CSS Grid Layout needs far less divs to accomplish the same layout. With Flexbox you end up creating a lot of parent elements to layout the content elements correctly.

I think the problem is even though it sounds like a lot, $1.5m/year is not really some kind of "Tony Stark"-like riches. Yes, they might be able to temporarily stop working and live off savings, but probably not for that long. And furthermore, $1.5m, which is really $750k after taxes, doesnt really pay a lot of salaries. Hard to have an engineering division on $750k.

Also, I know plenty of people who are doing exactly what you are saying. The reality though is bootstrapping a startup is unlikely to make it more of a success anyways. The VC game picks winners in both senses - that they fund 'winners' and that they create winners by their own influence.

So a bootstrapped startup cannot ignore the VC realm regardless, especially once it is time to come to market.

The era of a silent genius sitting in a garage building durable software for the ages is a huge myth alas.

No one at time of posting has mentioned standardized backup being stored in physical copy off site.

Low risk, high impact events do happen.

Copying my harddrive to USB and storing them in the same room doesn't protect against a lot of other failures - fire, theft, other social or natural disaster.

For a small company or startup: Code is often versioned. Is everything else? Perhaps buy a cheap USB stick for a dump of all admin files that could have an impact should they get corrupted? Make a copy each week and stick on a new USB stick to put in your car's glove box (hopefully getting full, as you have a stack of backups - the is super important for audits: as a manager you should be able to trace changes in office documents easily, something someone more naïve would assume is covered up - I've seen it happen).

Copying to the cloud puts a lot of trust in the cloud being there in the event of a failure. If the technological connectivity causes of failure for my business and the cloud are independent this makes a lot of sense. Not when passwords can be easily shared, floppy disk controllers introduce rooting vulnerabilities, etc.

An off-site physical medium makes a lot of sense for backups. Encrypt a USB stick and keep it in your car. If you have an office with multiple sites, send a USB/HDD/SD containing backups every couple of weeks.

Low probability, high impact events do happen. And they have an irrecoverable impact.

Have a routine. Then, as others have said, you have a recovery solution, not a backup.
