It absolutely is not difficult to share state across Angular controllers. Services work great for this. I also dispute that you are too far removed from "vanilla" Javascript when using Angular. I recently integrated some externally written d3 javascript code and it works as expected without forcing a conversion to "the Angular way". Finally, I certainly dispute that Angular is too slow. Our Investmynd app has a fairly data and interaction heavy front end, and its performance is quite snappy if I do say so myself. :)

Now what I do think is true is that Angular is a fairly complicated beast, which when combined with the poor standard documentation, makes it a non-trivial endeavor to learn and use properly.
I think some teams are going to discover that RPC is a better fit for some APIs. Will we see Thrift get more popular? A resurgence in WCF(!) or something new and super light? For asynchronous are we going to see more pub / sub? Is this a good fit for ZeroMQ? I think there's a lot more mileage in these discussions...
If the IRS doesn't think I've paid my taxes, I can go to prison.

Doesn't that make this particular case a criminal one?

Disclaimer: have been an /r/nootropics moderator for most of its life. Am basically inactive now, but sometimes answer modmail.

Be wary of Longecity (and /r/nootropics to a lesser, or at least different, extent). There are some Longecity users in the Brain Health forum who will seem to know what they're talking about if you haven't read through introductory neuroscience and pharmacology textbooks. The same is true in /r/nootropics, but there are a greater concentration of knowledgeable users and bad science tends to get readily downvoted. I know I have said some ridiculous things in the past on both forums, and /r/nootropics has been more willing to call me out for indulging in anecdotal evidence.

The Longecity forum also seems to have a slightly more experimental tone to it, given that Longecity as a whole is not a nootropics community but a life extension community. There's a tradition of doing "group buys" of new substances from overseas. /r/nootropics has gotten more openly experimental in the past couple years, but I don't believe anyone has tried to organize a group buy yet.

But yeah, the sibling comments have exhausted the options that exist today. As far as I'm aware there aren't any expansive surveys that span the whole of nootropics / cognitive enhancement. There are papers that compare specific classes of new substances or techniques, but no comprehensive treatment of the idea of cumulative/permanent pharmacological brain enhancement yet. For now we're stuck with two slightly quirky online forums (which both skirt the line between self-help and wannabe academia) and wading through the literature ourselves. There's also examine.com and wikipedia as starting points.
So rather than just down vote this comment and the others, I'm going to point you to this guideline:

"Please don't submit comments complaining that a submission is inappropriate for the site. If you think a story is spam or off-topic, flag it by clicking on its "flag" link. (Not all users will see this; there is a karma threshold.) If you think a comment is egregious, click on its timestamp to go to its page, then click "flag" at the top."

If you have an issue with the content, commenting on it is not the solution. In fact, by commenting like you did, you are doing the wrong thing. You are becoming the problem you want to avoid.

Awesome - right now it looks like you are beating the other small business 401k provider that I know of (theonline401k) which i think charges around 525/quarter+4 per employee on it.

Are you 100% managed investments? Or can an employee opt to pick their own investments? Do you have access to the admiral funds and are you allowing the company to chose which funds are available?

So how do you let roads "deteriorate and go away"? Wouldn't there be huge unsafe potholes in the transition?

What kind of roads would they abandon? I didn't click through to all the references, but this article doesn't give any solutions.
It's a perfect good example because it's analagous to what Reddit did, and you're splitting hairs because it doesn't fit your own narrative on racism and moral judgement that you crafted for your own personal reality.

You even admit that you don't think that what reddit did is the equivalent of racism, so you admit your analogy isn't even relevant to the situation. Just as if you gave the analogy of "people judge a bar that doesn't let you bear arms because of second amendment ideals!", it's still moot, because while yes, they do pass moral judgement, it's completely irrelevant from people selectively ignoring safety reasons behind the firearm ban.

Passing moral judgement that resulted from a bias is still a bias.
> If you want to minimize warranty expenses in order to maintain anything resembling profit, then you need to engineer you product so that the average useful life is well beyond your warranty period.

Or the flip side, if you want to go that way. Higher reliability allows you to offer a longer warranty, attracting either higher prices or more customers.

This is part of how Japan made themselves mainstream car sellers in the US. They calculated that the cars had to be more reliable, because in the early days without a lot of infrastructure, recalls would be very expensive. So they made the cars reliable. Allowing them to offer longer warranties.

I just bought a two year old Toyota, after driving a Honda that I bought new for 25 years.
I heard about this service on Startups for the Rest of Us: https://codetree.com/

It allows you to create projects with multiple repos and then manage issues at the project level.

I signed up and tried out a test account - it looks pretty nice. I haven't used it for any real projects however.

Wealthfront is indeed a ripoff for the well-informed.

For most folks, though, something that makes saving simple is something that will lead to HUGE gains over not having that thing in the first place.

Without Wealthfront, most people would simply let that money sit in a checking account or in a user-made nondiversified portfolio (most people don't understand the incredible benefits of diversification, including myself most days, which is why we work at startups :) ).

Therefore, I still believe the value of Wealthfront is positive, and likewise, I believe the value of most financial planners is positive.
They mention it's meant to be low level so people using React, Glitter etc would use the same API and maybe only have to dive into it for additional performance gains

Blacktop is asphalt (what roads are normally made of). And requires an underlying concrete layer to lengthen it's lifetime (asphalt is a lot "softer" than concrete and more susceptible to ground movement, erosion by the elements and friction from tires, etc...)

Is this really true, on the individual scale? Especially for something like Wealthfront where all the investors as basically "lumped in" together anyway?
> If the IRS doesn't think I've paid my taxes, I can go to prison.

No, if the IRS doesn't think you've paid your taxes, they can attempt to collect the unpaid taxes.

OTOH, if the Department of Justice can prove in a criminal prosecution that you've violated the criminal provisions of the tax law, you can go to prison. If the IRS thinks you've done that (which is different from just not paying your taxes), they can refer you to the DoJ for prosecution.

This change to IRS guidance doesn't change the criminal provisions of the tax law that would apply were the government to prosecute you, therefore, the change is not a change to criminal law, retroactive or otherwise.
To be fair, if you don't use the latest and greatest manufacturing processes - which you don't really need to do in smart watches - chips can be very robust and long-lasting. Plus, given the battery requirements, you don't really want to use high-performance components in watches anyway, Apple's ridiculous battery life notwithstanding.

As for the whole market segment of "this watch will pass through generations", I guess the honest thing to say is that we just don't have that kind of experience with integrated circuits yet... besides, does this type of traditional watch never need repairs? They must have failures as well.
A console is often a loss leader, so the company may want it to last much longer. Ideally, you want them to last ~2 generations. So the used market keeps companies producing older generation games for as long as possible.

If you have money in a 401(k) account you deserve what's coming to you soon. Again.

EDIT: don't listen to people talking about compound interest. If you have a 401(k) you will be paying this interest to the government bonds your 401(k) holds when we are finally in NIRP. Look at Greece today, they are going to have to pay $71M on July 17 which is just the interest on their 2014 3-year bonds.

If you are young, learn from the bad advice coming from the old folks.

EDIT 2: owning US stock, no matter when purchased, is a bad idea now in these times of share buyback, yes. So yes, it cannot be a good idea to hold stock now since we're due a crash (which got caught yesterday by a "system update glitch" at NYSE which curiously affected United Airlines and Wall Street Journal as well). Holding some gold and cash, as Bank of America advises NOW, is a very good idea: http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2015-05-18/bank-of-am...
Another caveat is that you have to wait 72 hours after the event before you can be reasonably sure the counts aren't going to change any more. Sure, you get some results immediately, but for some reason, some take a long time to settle. I'm guessing it is a massive eventually consistent distributed database, and that GA hits are going to nearest or least busy nodes and it just takes a while for them all to sync up.

Chalk me up as yet another happy user of Pinboard.

I put up with the ridiculously slow Delicious bookmarking for far too long only migrating to Pinboard two years ago.

I have about 18k bookmarks on pinboard and speed has not suffered at all. Bookmarking is very fast.

About the only criticism would be that search of my bookmark tags seems a bit more primitive than on Delicious.

Can I actually search multiple tags (not text) in my bookmarks? For example all bookmarks with hn and programming?

North Carolina does not have the most maintained roads of any state, they have "largest state maintained highway network in the United States."

This is a function of them choosing to maintain roads at the state level instead of the county level. If you look at road miles by state [0] regardless of the actual entity that maintains them, they are 16th.

Really? I've since gotten my degree but I dropped out of school in 2008 with half a bachelor's in Political Science. I've been a full-time software developer since 2009.

Having a degree is a signal that you can finish something on a longer time horizon than the end of the month.
About a decade ago, I remember reading about a trial application near me for an unpaved road hardening agent called pavezyme, which I also believe was trialed not long ago in AZ.

Yep, Sidekiq is my full-time job. I choose to sell a closed-source product rather than support. Selling support means I would be incentivized to provide poor documentation and/or make it complex/hard to setup/manage.

You can of course use a better prior if you don't think new posts are 50% likely to receive an upvote next. Otherwise I don't see how that behavior is undesirable or against the goal of the article.
I really dislike this article. It stretches the "What if your blue is my red?" concept too far, and makes it sound far more dramatic than it really is.

Let me clear something up first. Our senses are ways of acquiring information. What we sense (i.e. colors, different pitches) are just the categories with which we sort them. As long as we can agree on some common definition (i.e. wavelength for a color), they have done their job.

The talk about the subjectivity of color is misleading. The only thing that is subjective, is how our brain "parses" the information of these categories (i.e. my red vs. your red). But, because we can't share the brain's abstraction of color with one another, the discussion is meaningless.

Thus, while there is an aspect of colors that is subjective, it is impossible to think about outside of your own, and thus the discussion of color in terms of wavelength is the only plausible discussion.

-----

My problem with the article lies in the entirely inadequate account from the interviewee. Regarding her theory of color, she says: "... we need a way of theorizing subjectivity in such a way that we’ll just acknowledge that there are parts of our experience and our perceptual knowledge of things that are generated by the particular ways that we interact with the world." Which basically says "Our brains will parse the image differently, we need a way to discuss the results," and is pretty much useless. Then she claims that color is a combination of our interpretation of color and the properties of objects.

Two possibilities: this might be just wrong, as she is conflating the color in the sense of wavelength and color in the sense of properties of objects that reflect light. These are clearly distinct.

Alternatively, she is referring to the brain's interpretation of a scene given the information from the eyes. That is, given the "bitmap data" the eyes take in, the brain attempts to "parse" the scene, and adjusts colors for light sources. Well great, mystery solved, but we knew this already. So what exactly is her "theory" that she is contributing?

To my understanding, the entire article is an attempt to confuse different meanings of the word color.

In a big city with rising rents, people who already live somewhere ~have a right to be there~ and shouldn't have to go. In a small town, apparently, there's no possible reason people would want to stay.
For 401k plans that have access to Vanguard's target date funds, they can be a decent choice. Unfortunately, the majority of 401k's don't even offer Vanguard as an option -- instead, employees are stuck with high-fee mutual funds because they give kickbacks to the 401k company.

That said, employees using our investment advice get additional diversification (6-7 asset classes), as well as a more personalized recommendation that takes into account not just your age, but also your risk tolerance, financial situation, other investments, etc. We think that's better than a one-size-fits-all fund.
Judging the effectiveness of organizations and actions is definitely useful, but this summary seems to ignore the complexities inherent in ethical decisions. It seems to me that the most important problems we have to address are various forms of mental illnesses and deficiencies in thinking. We certainly have the resources and technology to give everyone a good, safe, an healthy life, and yet the political and social realities of the world drive people to harm each other and themselves.

There's certainly a need for triage in addressing the immediate damage to people, but the larger goal of creating a world in which people choose not to sabotage their communities requires a lot of creative thinking. We don't know what it will take to create that world, but abstractions like art and music seem to go a long way toward helping people find the mental clarity they need to make good decisions. So while we should absolutely try to live effectively, we should also consider that long-term social benefits come from developing impractical but enjoyable habits which promote mental health and wellbeing.

'Wiped out' to me implies more than a temporary difference between recent high and recent low which both probably existed for far too little time for you to be the first person to realize to sell at the peek and first person to buy at the bottom.
Adobe's Creative Cloud TAX: Will You Pay It, Again and Again
> And yet this is what we seem to be experiencing in this case

No, Congress passing a law saying that "IRS can set taxes at any level they want" is not what we are seeing.

If you want to argue that the actual laws Congress has passed are unconstitutional delegations, please, point to the specific laws, and make that argument.

> but since tax evasion is itself a crime it seems to indirectly violate the ex post facto law prohibition.

Evasion is a different thing than non-payment. No act that occurred in the past that was not evasion when it occurred becomes evasion as a result of this change in application.
Huge chunks of the midwest are a paved checkerboard of roads spaced at 1 mile intervals. Many of these get 3-5 cars passing a day, if that. There is no need for a lot of these to be paved, as they serve as field access roads. The houses off these roads are farm houses, and most of the farmers I know don't mind either way if it's a gravel or paved road. Some actually prefer gravel, as in the winter, when it is icy, the gravel can provide better traction, and the county doesn't do a good job plowing.

Yes, and women should pay more for health insurance since they go to the doctor more often.

However neither of those things will happen because common sense and communism are polar opposites despite their shared etymological roots.

EDIT: sophists can downvote but what they can't do is cope, or they would engage my arguments.

EDIT 2: for the slow, the argument is that it is natural to want those who use a resource the most to pay the most, but people had rather not see this obvious truth when you replace trucks with women. To want trucks to pay more (I bet many leftists would agree with that after all "truck are driving for profit" and profit is bad in the eyes of leftists) for using the same roads because they use it more, and then to not want women to pay more towards health insurance because she uses doctors more, is the sort of contradiction that you can only find in a leftist's brain.

EDIT 3: Men and women both profit from going to the doctor. Otherwise they would not go, it would be a waste of their time. There's a cost to opportunity and the fact that a person chooses to go to a doctor over doing something else means, praxeologically speaking, that they stand to profit more from going to the doctor than doing anything else, including not going to the doctor.

EDIT 4: Hi jordan, thanks for your comment. The solution to the hitch is to break the healthcare monopoly. Trucks now, if roads were too expensive for them, would have no choice but to exit the market as you said; but if there were competition in roads then they could strike a deal with a competitor road provider and switch over, as I can do if Apple doesn't want my app, I can sell it to Android users. Of course I'm not suggesting women should "exit the market" because that would be the end of people. But we're not far off from the end of people if healthcare is a monopoly either. Competition in healthcare would allow for entrepreneurs to come up with ways to cut down on costs for women-related care.
