I agree with everything you said, except that in some countries like France, wine is -by definition- not a luxury good. And I would dare to say, that culturally is not treated like that either.

In other places, like my country of origin Chile, wine is actually legally a luxury good. It has a luxury good tax, and it's culturally viewed as a luxury good by most of the Chilean society.

I would like wine to be a closer thing for people in my Country and here in the States. Like a good book that your local bookstore could suggest you to read could change your life. A good wine, recommended by your local -serious- cavista could change your life too.

In a society that's pretty much immersed in Fast Food and Soda, this would be like a refreshing breeze of cool air :)
Did you have a look at http://dbmail.org/ ? And/or http://aox.org/ (Archiveopteryx) ?

I've been thinking of using one of their schemas as a base for doing something similiar for an email client/interactive mail archive type thing (think: hyperkitty/pipermail).

Also notmuch has done some work for mapping email to xapian for search/tagging/indexing -- could also be a good source of inspiration I think.
That's actually not entirely true, unfortunately.

Ask me how I know.

Which did it for you?
Don't take this as negative but your post reads more like a rant than a question. Which contradicts the "Ask" tag.

Edit: To address your "question", no HN hasn't become a negative place. A simple read throughout the comments of https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9628682 will show the great sense of human empathy that thread reflects.

There, an example and a counter-example, until someone runs a full analysis of the "negativity" of HN, we can safely say HN is "neutral" :p
Exactly. The issue is not the politics or even the personalities involved. After all, these are perennial sources of conflict abd yet they don't invariably produce the awful results seen here.

What does produce these results is terrible governance. The "system" described here is a case study in how not to handle dispute resolution.

I lay blame squarely at the feet of the demonstrably overpaid "leadership" at Northwestern who allowed these procedures to take root in the first place.
Any reference on it being "generally considered less developer friendly"?
7) As an aside, it will be difficult to enroll on your fiance's health insurance. You are not dependents of each other & not married.

If you guys did tie the knot, you would have two qualifying events (marriage & you losing your coverage from old job), either of which on its own would let you sign up for coverage under her plan.
wow. I'll drink to that to. Viva la revolution.
Cheers!

Also almost forgotten:

An audio CD offers high quality lossless audio whereas MP3 is a lossy format meaning that some hear a quality difference with good loudspeakers.

The music industry should offer wav/flac audio files (at a slightly higher price) next to MP3 files, if they ever decide to stop producing music CDs!
Eh yeah I forgot about that change. I would still think you would want to avoid coverage gaps, unless the law definitely mandates retroactive coverage. As to how the insurance companies are allowed to calculate premiums, I guess under the new law I have no idea. I don't see how they couldn't be allowed to consider claims experience at some level, but maybe they can't do it per employer anymore. But at the end of the day they still have to make a profit otherwise why bother?

> Most people I know despise Esperanto, but largely for daft reasons [from 1]

When I first read about Esperanto decades ago, I was immediately put off by it only using languages from the Indo-European language family as a source for vocabulary and grammar. Any good constructed language intended for worldwide use as a universal second language would also need to source vocab and patterns from Arabic, Swahili, Turkish, Chinese, Thai, Vietnamese, Japanese, and Indonesian, all of which are from different language families, not to mention less numerically used language families.
It's funny that they show the blender-trick. Have anyone tried this? From what I've heard it can turn an awful wine into something passable but it also turns good wine into bad. Basically all wines blended will taste flat and the same.
I can't remember what I used to rip music, but I remember having a healthy collection of Winamp playlists with all my CDs in MP3 format way before Apple came on the scene. I had dial-up until late 2006 so I never really got into downloading music (20 minutes for a track wasn't worth it).

Best wishes with getting well and surviving.

Think about your parents and your fiancé. Those who are close to you, matters more than [a relatively small amount of money to your future colleagues. Or a large amount.]. How would your parents and fiancé feel if you quit your job and risked your life (by getting less access to good health care?) in order to in effect give money to a company?

You are more important than the company. And your future colleagues, will agree with this, I think. Companies are built to make people happy. Not the other way around.

(I think I a little bit can feel how you feel about joining the company and then later on they will know that you have this illness. And I think that they will think you did the right thing, when you joined. Assuming you don't over work yourself, but take time to rest when you feel you need to.)

Not taking this as negative, and I agree it was partly a rant. Maybe I should remove the Ask HN tag? But again, it's not a non-question either.

Negativity is a general sentiment I've often seen within threads these days and it probably needs to be looked at. This forum should encourage people building new stuff. While the quality of submissions may not have gone down over the years, the negativity has certainly gone up.

ADD: To answer your edit.

That's a totally different type of article and I wouldn't be surprised if comments are supportive when someone is struggling with cancer. Not saying we've devolved into that level of inhumaneness. Not at all. OTOH, discouraging people who build stuff (and try to share what they have built) is my central point.
Not sure why people and especially lawmakers keep separating alcohol and other drugs. Alcohol is a drug and one of the more dangerous and addictive ones at that. If that is legal than so should a lot of other drugs be. And trying to make it illegal, as you say does not work; it makes it things worse.
That is something economists have major disagreements about. Classical economists (see Say's law) would argue that the production of a product creates the market/demand for it.
My adventure with wine got serious when I actually noticed that I had been drinking crap. I was fortunate to try a Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande 1990 like 6 years ago. That wine is from Bordeaux, and even if I don't drink Bordeaux actively anymore, it marked my life.

There are a lot of wines that have marked me and my taste, and most of them are not expensive.

-> Louis Antoine Luyt "País de Quenehuao" got me into natural wine. (10 bucks in Chile)

-> Domaine Ostertag "Riesling" Got me into white wine. (~20 bucks?)

-> Kenjiro Kagami "Poulsard" Domaine De Miroirs, showed me how edgy and how much tension a wine could have. (maybe 30 bucks)

I could elaborate for hours, like good books, a lot of wines that I tasted are memories that I hold deeply in my heart.

I was also lucky enough to meet a great group of people who helped me to shape my own taste, suggest new exciting stuff or even share great bottles with me...
"Health insurance companies can't refuse to cover you or charge you more just because you have a pre-existing condition. They also can’t charge women more than men.

Being sick won't keep you from getting coverage

Your insurance company can't turn you down or charge you more because of your pre-existing health or medical condition like asthma, back pain, diabetes, or cancer. Once you have insurance, they can't refuse to cover treatment for your pre-existing condition.

This is true even if you’ve been turned down or refused coverage due to a pre-existing condition in the past.

Medicaid and the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP) also can't refuse to cover you or charge you more because of your pre-existing condition.

When you get care for a pre-existing condition, you’ll still need to pay any deductibles, copayments, and coinsurance your plan requires. It doesn’t matter whether you’re being treated for a pre-existing or new health condition.

One exception: Grandfathered plans

The only exception to the pre-existing coverage rule is for grandfathered individual health insurance plans -- the kind you buy yourself, not through an employer. They don’t have to cover pre-existing conditions.

If you have one of these plans you can switch to a Marketplace plan that covers pre-existing conditions.

You can do this during open enrollment, but be sure to contact your insurance company first to learn about how and when you can cancel your current plan.
You can also buy a Marketplace plan outside open enrollment when your grandfathered plan year ends. Your plan ending gives you a Special Enrollment Period to enroll in different coverage."

> Why does the general public consider drug prohibition to be that much different than alcohol prohibition??

Because they have been told by the media, over and over, for decades. At least that's my theory. Consider how often the phrase "drugs and alcohol" is used in the general context of substance-based addiction.

Because it is socially accepted. Being a connoisseur of fine wines or whiskey is something many people consider sophisticated. Being a connoisseur of, say psychedelics or stimulants is, apparently a criminal offense.
I've been thinking about experimenting with enforcing cert-checks on incoming tls/smtp. Possibly with a plain text smtp mx as fallback (through some kind of try-again-later greylist-like magic).

Providing a fallback would negate the security benefit, obviously -- but might gather enough data for a whitelist (ish) of servers/sending domains which we can demand valid certs for.

I'm not too concerned about bouncing valid email, as long as it doesn't create loops. Nor am I that worried about missing emails.

As long as all the senders are a) mailing-lists that either should do the right thing, or will actually change to do the right thing if an error is reported, b) big free services like gmail/yahoo/outlook that might be divided into groups of "does the right thing" and "blacklist"/bounce to let any friend know that they need to send from "free service y, not x" -- and c) friends that run their own email servers and can be beaten (eh, educated) to compliance.

I'd really not like to rely on some random CA list, though. I'm personally a cacert.org-fan/user -- but I suppose one might try to lean on DANE to avoid that particular hairball -- to some extent. It's either that or manual whitelist+trust on first use/some kind of pinning.

I don't know. Who? It's really hard to tell.

I think pharmaceutical companies produce a lot of them, but I wouldn't consider them a "health care system" as they are typically public companies, nor would I consider their IP to be a "contribution".

The large pharma companies are often in the US and Switzerland, but much of their revenues are not cancer related so it is hard to work out which one is doing the most.

Usually, patronage: accepting donations, "pay what you want" sales, "holding works hostage", running Kickstarters, "collector's editions", selling merchandise that isn't very good but people buy it anyway to support the artist, etc. etc.

Alternatively, micro-duration IP rights. I'm especially fond of the idea of releasing books as chapter-at-a-time (or with even finer granularity) serials on a subscription model, where you pay to read right away, or can read for free if you wait. (I'm working on a marketplace service to this effect, in fact.) This model works to the incentive people have to consume new media at the same time everyone else is, in order to use the presumed shared experience as a conversation topic. The work is free, but you pay for the social benefit.

Like I said, everyone has different tastes. I've been to around 50 ramen places in and around LA trying to find anything remotely like what I have in Japan. Every place I've been in and around Torrance as absolute shit. Some would give me a bowl of what they called tonkotsu ramen and it tasted like ankake instead. Goopy white cornstarchy sauce with little flavor.

Tsujita was the only one that tasted anything like the kinds I like in Tokyo.

That only makes it better for me though. People like what they like. If you like Sliverlake more power to you. But it's nothing like ramen in Japan.

This doesn't detract from your point, but... there are plenty of games for Linux nowadays. It cannot compete with Windows, of course, but thanks to Steam, the Humble Bundle, etc., we can now enjoy a multitude of videogames, including AAA titles. And plenty of indies, of course.

There are some non-obvious issues:

1. Why not firewall in the operating system and distribute/scale the load evenly ? Centralising the firewall was done when OS provisioning was bad, now we have Puppet/Chef/Ansible, firewalls operations is simple enough.

2. Simple firewalling is effectively worthless when 99% of all traffic is HTTP/S and SSH. To add value you perform flow analysis combined with deep packet inspection to build a meta-data data to pass through a heuristics/pattern analysis to perform threat detection.

3. Passing through any device creates latency in the order of milliseconds, which is not acceptable in east/west traffic loads. Parallelisation, caching, flow cut-through will all incur a latency penalty.

Interesting, I didn't know the common law definition, but I did know the maritime law definition, but can't remember where from... I think it was from a David Eddings book from my child-hood.

"In maritime law, barratry is the commission of an act by the master or mariners of a vessel for an unlawful or fraudulent purpose that is contrary to the duty owed to the owners, by which act the owners sustain injury." [1]

Building a product in public
I started on:

https://fossil.alienscience.org.uk/repos/alien-mail/home

It is paused because IMAP seems to be the hardest part and I started a project with others to implement an IMAP server in Go:

https://github.com/alienscience/imapsrv

Progress on both projects is very slow - I spend about 3 hours a week on it. However, help is always welcome.

Edit: The two hard things about writing email servers are that its incredibly boring and there is a lot to write.
It's easy to misread tptacek's comment, I'm pretty sure he's saying "get COBRA as needed to cover a gap, but don't stay on COBRA instead of your new employer's policy."

Staying on COBRA would likely suck, even if your new employer kicked in something to cover it. COBRA can be remarkably expensive, and anything extra the new company paid you would also be taxable income in ways that employer subsidized plans wouldn't along with being awkward if you later signed up ("Lump, we're cutting your pay since you're getting onto our insurance now.").

I'll note that once the ACA plans became available, coverage for my wife and I (on a pretty good Gold plan with no subsidy) was somewhere around 60% of the cost of COBRA for the two of us from her previous job - and the ACA plan wasn't an HMO or anything like that, it was a standard PPO with a decent network.

Delaying a change to the new employer's plan would likely not fly - much like the exchanges, you have two times you're eligible to sign up: during the open enrollment period, and after qualifying events such as a change of employment or marriage. If you bypass the new employer's plan, you're stuck until (most likely) January, 2016 after an open enrollment period in November/December.

Short answer: when you print money, borrowers and non investors lose money, while lenders and investors gain more. It creates more imbalance.

It is more complicated than that. If you print money, borrowers (e.g. 30 year mortgage) can win, because they get to pay back their debt with cheaper dollars. If you have credit card debt, you are probably in trouble. People who have saved, and invested (e.g. bonds) can lose, because their investments are devalued.

I haven't had dandanmian in Dallas but I have had it throughout the SF Bay Area and Los Angeles (Monterey Park, Alhambra, the places where many claim the best Chinese food in the USA is). While I like it I don't crave it the way I crave the Japanese style so if you get a chance please come to Japan and try it here. I think you'll like it. Just make sure you pick a good one. There's also plenty of bad ones here too.
I second the suggestion of Ramnode. I've used them for both small openvz 'personal projects' as well as much larger multi-node setups. They're all pro as far as i'm concerned....also reliable, fast & i've never had a problem reaching their tech support (and god knows i've had to reach out to them at the worst times of the night in the past when something wasn't working as planned). There's another VPS service that is also fast + reliable though they're more for people who already know what they're doing that shares a similar name - ramhost.us. I currently have two small vps accounts on ramhost.us for various scripts/apps that help make my life easier. I couldn't recommend either service enough to be honest.

Linode.com is also pretty reliable + fast (though I do realize they are right now experiencing a datacenter being down).

I use to have lots of small vps's going (I was a regular on lowendbox.com) back a few years ago (some were dev, some were for clients, some were just all the open source projects I was working on. It all boils down to exactly what you want to get out of it (also where in the world you want to host it). For instance right now i just need two low-end openvz nodes that don't pull in much traffic, hence my choice with continuing with ramhost.us rather than Ramnode or linode (they've got small packages + frequent discounts for new accounts). Another option i would have easily chosen would be hostigation.com. These aren't for big production sites though (although i'm sure they'd handle them without a glitch).

My biggest suggestion is stay away from any service that has hosting as a secondary option (i.e. all the domain registrars and hosts who have shared hosting as their primary source of business).

Totally agree with you, since you mentioned Occhipinti, there is another Occhipinti in Sicily making natural wines which is worth to check, "Arianna Occhipinti": http://www.agricolaocchipinti.it/ (sorry terrible site). I've mixed feelings about natural wines since they are of very mixed quality... but those ones are fine IMHO.

1. the number is more than 800.
2. NSX is being deployed primarily as a security tool for micro-segmentation. It is displacing firewalls in the data centre is substantly way.
3. Change in the data centre is slow. Infrastructure is commonly built on 10-15 year cycles so actual purchases are a lagging indicator.
