I think we should recognize that power imbalances exist and that some private contracts are very exploitative, and are thus not entirely voluntary.
I am not sure i understand your point
You can either use offline (SMS) codes or you can configure that it allows you to connect without duo if the system is offline.
"That's missing the point.

The point is that allowing EVERYONE to marry IS the neutral position."

I agree with this. However, the lobbyists and special-interest groups that made this happen (same-sex marriage) did so by ruining lives and careers.

If it wasn't destroying the career of the ex-Mozilla CEO. It was forcing businesses to close that didn't cater to gay-weddings (They shouldn't be able to turn anyone away, but they should be able to decide what to make).

I don't know why we should just ignore this evil behavior because the end result was good. Instead, it's ignored and brushed under the carpet.

It's pretty sick really.
This seems to be a non-sequitur. Who are you talking about?

Larry isn't libertarian to the best of my knowldge, and certainly not an asshole. He's one of the nicest, most genuinely kind and generous, people I've ever met.
The complaints about "SJWs", while indelicately phrased, aren't completely off-base. Hacker News has gotten way more PC over the past 5 years, much to its detriment. I remember what the site was like before the big reddit influx in 2010, and the actual political center wasn't that different, but the quality of discussion was a lot higher. People were forthright, analytical, and thorough. Conversation wasn't so prone to being dominated by groupthink, memes, and keeping up appearances.

Some of this doesn't come from HN itself but from the overall tech culture. But I think a big part of the story is that the site saw a massive expansion in users, thus becoming more generic and "public", meaning people have to be a bit more reflexive about what they say on here. When your audience is a trusted community of people with a shared understanding of the rights and protections that discussion participants grant to one another, you can cut through the bullshit a lot easier.
Enough already.
It's a recursive tail call. It should run forever, like the following Scheme code.

Master Password works very differently from 1Password, KeePass, LastPass, etc:

"Master Password is a stateless password generator. It doesn't store, collect or transmit any secrets. It makes them ubiquitously available, on-demand, depends on nothing but your private master password, and is fully open source."
If I'm running all my own services... now I need to Hire people to manage my OSes for the app, as well as systems for databases, key-value stores, backup, mail, load balancing, etc, etc... few people are good at more than one or two of those things, which means I'd have to hire 2-3 people to cover those skills. 2-3 people at even 100k ($30/hr + employer taxes, etc), is quite a bit expensive than AWS services extra costs. Those are people you wouldn't necessarily need if you leveraged those services from AWS.

And when you say, you can just hire people to setup, and run maintenance via contracted services... I've tried hiring a PT postgresql dba, and it was pretty much impossible to do... those services I did reach out to mostly just plain didn't respond, even with a quote.
Instead of the elderly living in homes/apartments by themselves, why not try to get them to live in elderly communities where they can engage with other elderpeople and have caregivers oversee their journey into eol.

@timhon, I meant as a society, why not invest in elderly communities. Their pop is only going to get older, so it behooves them to address this option.

As, a side note, there is a curious phenomenon of relatives going along with the rouse of their dead elders living so they can cash their checks. Seems to be in the news on occasion.
I've wondered whether I could emancipate my kid to achieve the same effect. If you only have to file your own taxes, that'd make sense. Doesn't make sense to me that a legal adult's parents are roped into the equation.
How has your country (you must be American) distinguished itself by doing these same core social and psychological issues? Or are Americans stubborn and ignorant?

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that this idea isn't going to catch on. Sorry.
The inverse happens too. Racists and sexists define everyone who they don't agree with as Social Justice Warriors. Of course, neither end of the spectrum think that the corresponding label applies to them.
I would try to look for shareable AP each time but if my success rate is 1:10 I wouldn't bother look again. And I am ready to pay for it. So... what if I try the push model through telco - light up your AP sharing script in all the APs of this telco you get lets say 1 million shareable AP on Day-1. If an existing subscriber of this telco wants to use any of those APs, you add $1 to your monthly bill and access any of these 1 million APs anytime. If a Telco-Z subscriber wants to use this service pay $2 to the telco - $1 goes to Telco $1 goes to the one whose AP is being shared... everyone happy. Telco-Z jealous.

Now think of going abroad, telco has their roaming partners now they can have their wifi-roaming partners.

Ask HN: How to sell desktop software online?
is there any platform using bank account for payout. Do you willing to make this idea happen, I living in Indonesia and homeless, maybe this significantly will change the world because homeless/poor people doesn't have credit card. I'm so tired posting on forum about a way to get paid for selling online, I need to work to get food, I can't wait much longer. Thank you!
Here's details of how the algorithm is implemented:

I had a severe negative reaction to lithium, along with risperdal and abilify. I've liked Seroquel, which surprised me after all the others I tried were awful. Someone else might say the reverse (Seroquel was awful but those other drugs were better).

The important lesson is that, if a treatment isn't working for you, then you should try something else. My first psychiatrist was extremely hostile to the idea of me switching drugs, so I concluded that all psychiatrists were useless. In retrospect he was wrong, because switching to Seroquel was a good idea for me, and I wouldn't have tried it if I didn't fire him.
Artificial Intelligence Machine Gets Testy with Its Programmer
Enough authority to purport to tell other people "how investing works"? Not even if he's Ron Conway. Startup investing is undergoing radical changes, no one knows what will work best in the future.
I find it disheartening how much people trash talk Perl, while other languages that are extremely similar (JavaScript, Python, Ruby all share much more with Perl than they do with, say, Haskell or Go or ML), get a pass. It's become trendy to do so, to the point where people who clearly have never learned Perl or worked with it feel entitled to speak with authority on it. Taking it to the point of dismissing anything Perl's creator has ever said (as one of the commenters on this wiki page does) is absurd and means not listening to an extremely bright technologist (I mean, c'mon, Larry invented patch, the basis of a tremendous amount of awesome in modern software development!).

There are misfeatures in Perl, certainly, but there are roughly as many misfeatures in JavaScript. It's silly to dismiss it as "awful" when there's so much that is clearly nice about the language for many categories of problem.
Welcoming Percolate Studio to Meteor Development Group
I wonder what happens if a couple gets a license and then decides not to go through with the ceremony when the time comes. Are they still married? Or do they have to file for a divorce? Are there provisions for an 'annulment' from a legal perspective?

I guess there are actual annulments, but I always thought of those from a religious perspective, not a legal one. I can't fathom that the requirements are the same as presumably the religious one stipulates no intercourss.
theres really nothing to it that couldn't be replaced by a contract.
Good, gentle introduction that goes through everything step by step. Turns to php at the end.
Karma in the US appears to be just a LTE dongle which could be from anyone - At&T/sprint. whats the disruption?
Many of those power imbalances were created (directly or indirectly) by the government.

There should always be an option to declare bankruptcy and start over (unless you were guilty of a crime, which is a debt you shouldn't be able to dodge).

For example, if someone decided to enter a slavery contract, they could always later declare bankruptcy and default and start over. However, an employment contract of 1-10 years probably would be treated differently.
You could use keys for each article to prevent react from rendering the whole list on update; it'd identify exactly which need updating, inserting or removal and do the minimal work to get there :)
I addressed yours directly and in detail. Your claims depend on your definitions.
People tend to mis-misuse Schizophrenia when they actually want to misuse Multiple Personality Disorder.
That's great advice for any creative work. People hating on your stuff is much better than people ignoring it.

There's always a troll there to tell you how much better the thing they could have done but didn't is than the thing that you could do and did. It's not true. "I did" beats "I could have" every time.
Don't be silly. Sometimes its a sperm donor; often the father is not biological. Children are orphans; they are adopted; they are born to a surrogate. That's got to be about the silliest thing anybody has said on HN for a long time.
Don't disrupt my ego, bro.
Anytime your argument relies on "instead of a few rich jagoffs getting a bit richer" you are basically making an argument for tax. And whatever you are proposing is going to be much less efficient than the actual taxation system, or at least the income/capital gains part.
That makes sense, having spent the last five years on a development team that has only recently grown to four people I can forget that not every team needs all their developers to be able to work on any project!
It is also against the UCMJ.
Analyse Asia 41: The 500 Mobile Collective with Edith Yeung of 500 Startups
Episode Synopsis: Edith Yeung from 500 Startups joined us for a chat on all things mobile and an overview of the mobile landscape all over the world. Drawing from her career experience with Dolphin and BiztechDay, she explained her investment thesis: how it continued to evolve with a ever-changing landscape of mobile and how she looked at investing into startups not just in the US but also how to map ideas from Asia back to US. On mobile, we discussed from payments, healthcare, enterprise, gaming, content to on-demand apps and understand the latest trends in mobile. We also discussed some of her investments and she offered her advice on how mobile startups need to figure out driving up app installs and usage.
That's why the government version shouldn't be called marriage.
You're using one ;)
Could also be replaced with "Ask <anyone mildly successful in the industry>" and applied to real life events populated by the same crowd.
Speaking up when you see wrongdoing is about the most double-speak idea of 'pretty sick' and 'ruining lives' I've heard. Its the wrongdoing that ruined lives. Making it public, so the public could respond with revulsion and aversion, was a natural consequence.

I don't like to see folks humbled, marginalized or demonized in public either. But giving rights to all Americans helped millions; the few bigots that got hurt (by being treated as they wished gays to be treated) is a cheap price to pay. As well as delicious irony.
One of the design goals is the ability to land on Mars, and none of these ideas satisfy that constraint. Powered landing also has advantages in control, ease of recovery, etc.
Great, Taiwan is becoming bigger and bigger on the startup world.

Atlassian Takes the Gay Marriage Ruling Too Far
I just pushed a bunch of my code to Bitbucket and my console printed out a huge rainbow Atlassian logo. I understand that many people are excited and happy about today's ruling, but I find it highly distasteful for a company to throw it in the face of many of their customers who are not happy with the ruling. Atlassian, show some respect and sensitivity.
There was a study in Italy of a patient who was cured of a severe form of bipolar called rapid cycling bipolar with "darkness therapy". They locked him in a dark room for 14 hours a night and after a couple months his sleep and his mood stabilized. No medication.

the article said there is a big shortage and a long waiting list.
I agree with effectiveness
At very least to determine what happens to your property when you die (and, perhaps more importantly to the state, how it is taxed). And also what happens to children if you die before they are of age.

Hospital visitation is a tricky one. I suppose you could have people register who gets to visit, but it would be unfair unless you required everyone to do this. I would be pissed if I a family member got in an accident and died alone while I pleaded with the hospital staff while people in traditional relationships are allowed in without the same registration.

Isn't the issue is financial aid, not taxation? They are not the same notions of 'dependent'. EG you can be off US tax forms and still have your parent's assets/income disqualify you for finacial aid (ie, large monetary discounts on tuition a/k/a handouts etc).
Fair or not, for financial aid purposes, the student cannot just decide to become independent from their parents in the common scenario. They won't buy it. Also, I imagine everybody would do it if it were that simple.
The very same!
This looks awesome! Just got back from a camping trip and just saw your post. Might there be any spare codes left?

EDIT: if you are better by email, feel free to reach me at akoster (at) ieee.org Thanks in advance and looking forward to trying out and recommending this awesome-looking app.
Ha! Respect and sensitivity - like all those bigots showed gays for the last century? Respect like that?
You're getting a lot of pushback on this, but I think it's a legitimate question at the very least. In this situation I would wonder whether some procedural abstractions could be introduced to cut down the size of the expansions.

And before anyone jumps on me -- I have 35 years of Zetalisp and Common Lisp experience and have written some pretty hairy sets of macros. There might turn out to be no easy way to make the expansions smaller, but there's nothing wrong with asking the question.
LastPass is definitely different, as it stores data on a server.

KeePass and 1Password, as I understand, use your master key to decrypt a file (local or in a cloud provider like Dropbox) that contains your password(s).

Master Password may be different than this - I don't understand how you can retrieve passwords without storing them, but I'm sure it'll become clear by researching it. I do want to be clear that 1Password isn't a central repository like LastPass, however.

(edit: I think I understand MP better, see below)
I suggest you don't go to Stack Overflow for the next few days then. I have no issue with comapnies showing their support in this way, but I can understand why others don't agree. Both the argument for and against companies showing their support for gay marriage have valid points, and I don't think I have much more to add than what has already been said at http://meta.stackoverflow.com/questions/297859/can-stack-ove...
There are some real problems with centralized systems. The obvious one is that if the centralized system goes down, things would become very, very bad in a very short time (thousands of cars effectively driverless, all at once...yikes).

Making each car responsible for its own collision avoidance is a lot more robust. If the sensors fail in one car, the others can take corrective action. For maximum safety, you'd also want the cars to be running different (but equally good) software, so you don't run into the type of situation where (e.g.) they all go nuts because the programmer didn't account for leap years or whatever.
This isn't general advice. I would say it's quite actionable.

Know your market and its audience.
Build simple tools that provide value targeted towards your audience.
Profit.
I stand corrected. I don't remember what persuaded me to the contrary. It's nevertheless a daunting task compared to the experience you get as a user in many other countries.
He makes some great points, if he thinks he's talking to philosophical 10 year olds --but ten year olds don't care about philosophy and deep meaning, in a film, of all things.

He better not send his kids over to grandma or grandpa, cuz I'll bet they do even more sugar coating and infantilizing than this movie.

Relax, mr movie critic, take a breath. No, wait, you get paid to be critical and a cynic.
The author sounds like a pretentious douche. The author has obviously never made or written a feature length film designed to entertain an audience. I bet the author spends Saturday mornings watching Wim Wenders films lamenting why Tom Waits doesn't release a new album already.

Blah.

Pixar writing once again hits it out of the park, creating a unique film that helps kids (and adults) think about how emotions affect us. Self-important gluten-free PBR drinkers notwithstanding.
While I'm not saying no time monitoring, I would still prefer a visit from a human being.

Recently my gran lost her heating & cooking for two days because her necklace went faulty and reported a false positive carbon monoxide incident.
I believe to be one of your target demographics (international students, thick accent) and I would definitely pay for a service like yours.

Focus on delivering a polished products that can deliver, I will try your product only once and if your product's quality convince me that there is an opportuntity to improve my speaking skills I will literally throw money at you.
Ok, I get it - it doesn't retrieve anything. It basically hashes you a password using what is public and a secret (your password). I need to see if it's possible to change your password on a per site basis - it seems that would require changing globally (since you'll need to update the secret)
It's a great article indeed. I think it was after I read this one that I really started to understand what was going on with all that encoding stuff that I was already used to doing. Funny to look back.
Unobtainable objects by Jacques Carelman
Human contact is good, but you can't have person there 24x7, a monitor never tires, and you can address false positives by relying on multiple signals/sensors.
Britains of a certain age are stoic and stubborn.

I was in hospital with my gran (born in 1922) in ICU (a pulse of 33bpm - and turns out she had kidney failure too), when alone with me she was gripping my hand and saying "this is the worst I have ever felt", when a few minutes later the doctor arrive d and asked "how are you feeling?" she replied "I'm fine thank you".

I think the current crop of younger people will be more vocal, if their sense of entitlement about their current lives is anything to go by.
Maybe they issue "Wrong Side of History" refunds? Vote with your wallet.
It was one of two carbon monoxide monitors, false positives are treated as failure of the second device to detect - which is, of course, the safest way.
Something they should have mentioned: put a

<meta charset="utf-8" />

in all your HTML documents that are in UTF-8. Note that this has to be in the first 1024 bytes of the document. Otherwise, the browser has to invoke the "encoding guesser"[1], which will sometimes guess wrong. (W3C: "The user agent may attempt to autodetect the character encoding from applying frequency analysis or other algorithms to the data stream.") The result will be occasional users seeing random pages in the wrong encoding, depending on browser, browser version, platform, and page content.

I recently saw the front page of the New York Times misconverted because they didn't specify an encoding, and the only UTF-8 sequence near the beginning of the document was in

<link rel="apple-touch-icon-precomposed" sizes="144×144" ...

The "×" there is not the letter x, it's the Unicode multiplication symbol. This confused an encoding guesser. Don't go there.

RGB specifically addressed why the supreme court wasn't previously hearing marriage cases at that time - they don't generally hear cases when the circuit courts are in agreement. Once the circuit split then they addressed the issue, but only then. In fact the dissent in DeBoer v. Snyder (which is one of the four cases that was combined for the Supreme Court) said "Because the correct result is so obvious, one is tempted to speculate that the majority has purposefully taken the contrary position to create the circuit split regarding the legality of same-sex marriage that could prompt a grant of certiorari by the Supreme Court and an end to the uncertainty of status and the interstate chaos that the current discrepancy in state laws threatens."
Top 5 reasons why you should contribute to open source
You right, I should have said Netherlands, because I was replying to that specific example by the parent comment, and after doing some research, it looks like EU is all over the place on this topic.
Yes. Pinterest is big but it's not Amazon, Google or Facebook big. With things like reserved instance pricing, and not having to spend as much money on a physical ops team that can manage real hardware, it leaves room to optimize software and cloud architecture.

without knowing the specifics of their workload I would bet that it's probably a draw at their scale. they may be big enough to start considering this sort of transition... but, it also takes a significant amount of time, energy, people and energy to make that transition, so they probably won't do it until it's a no brainer.

Curious if the numbers in the article are their entire db workload, 20-30k qps. If so they have a while to go before they are ready to graduate from the cloud in my opinion. (having no idea of the real meaty specifics, but imagining as it is similar in function to many that I have worked on).
Heck, even trying to manufacture ten units locally would benefit every project creator. While there are plenty of ideological arguments for local manufacturing, the strongest arguments are purely practical: faster iterations, clearer communications, better quality control, and a more visceral understanding of the inevitable problems (and solutions) that arise when making a physical product. These benefits will make the future transition, if any, to overseas manufacturing that much smoother. For all these reasons, we encourage local manufacturing at Crowd Supply, which I think plays a big part in why 100% of our funded projects have either already delivered or are on track to do so.
Interesting that I actually don't need to know this stuff. I think you'll find that MOST developers actually don't need to know this stuff. People seem to forget that the vast bulk of developers are for corporate and in house development, single language, being English.

I know this stuff because I like to understand how this works, but for all the dev's under me, there are probably a thousand concepts that I want them to understand before they start tackling encoding beyond knowing when to call the correct function.
