I don't see that term supporting the sweeping claims made in that article but you're certainly free to disagree. Ultimately I think this is somewhat moot until Amazon actually initiates action against anyone – the Appistry case was initiated by them and seems like to fail since the claims in e.g. https://www.google.com/patents/US7379959 don't appear to include anything which wasn't common HPC practice in 2002 – and we see how the courts react to it.
I have the same issue, and with synaesthesia in general. In fact, my first (false) reaction is to disbelieve it when somebody tells me they have some form of it.

I am aware it's real and many people have synaesthesia but, I would guess, it's so far outside my perception of the world that my brain immediately wants to dismiss it. An interesting and somewhat annoying condition of my own brain.
The skier video on the website is just plain bad. The camera should zoom out slowly and smoothly, instead it was jerky.
The emails from SONY had some controversial stuff in them.

For example here is an interaction between the CEO and the State Department about setting up a group of media executives to develop US propaganda for the Middle East and Russia: https://wikileaks.org/sony/emails/emailid/117082

Of course it was also revealed that The Interview was a propaganda product aimed at destabilizing North Korea (in anticipation of the upcoming planned unification).

These sorts of things can only be found when there's wide access given to journalists. It's also true that the emails were available via torrent and hosted other places online.

To play the other side, 99% of the SONY leaks were innocuous. While it is a company with management that works, like most US international corporations, with the US government on 'shady things', it is also in large part also a private company with the usual mundane concerns of a corporation.

He should have spent time talking about the severance. Honestly, if I was going through a layoff, that's all I'd care about at that point.
Because of Apple stores, iPhones have an enormous amount of good support. In Manhattan there are 6 stores including one open 365/24/7. You could make a Genius Bar appointment at 3 AM if you wanted. The people are nice and the support is good including 1-800-MyApple.

I use iPhone's FaceTime Audio a lot domestically and internationally since it has better audio quality (HD audio) then the regular network. Verizon is now offering HD audio but only on their newer phones and only within the Verizon network.

On the iPhone 6, FaceTime Video over cellular uses half the bandwidth of previous models.
I don't think it's supported for Spartan-6 though.
Supposedly Greece had small signs of growth in 2014, but I'm not clear on how accurate these claims were. From what I've read the last clear signs of growth that Greece had was around 2008 (before the global economic recession), is this claim also sketchy?
They're going to know one way or the other very soon. The focus of the CEO in this situation is continued operation and minimizing disruption - the people they plan to keep are more important for that and it's often necessary to get them on board before they start seeing their ashen-faced friends and coworkers collecting the stuff on their desks. It's not optimal for anyone but despite what this particular CEO wrote, the reality is the remaining people are the top priority.
Also important to understanding this:

To the users I'm talking about, the "cognitive value" of Reddit is not entirely about directly being fed opinions to take up as one's own.

Many of these users find great value to being exposed to, they deliberately seek out for their own enrichment: idiocy, malice, counterfactuals, cognitive dissonance, debate (honest and otherwise), the whole range of perceptions and opinions.

To them, being exposed to these things is just as much of the value of Reddit as the "good stuff". And that seems to be the aspect of Reddit most strongly and immediately under threat.

Anyone who does not value this kind of experience (which seems to be a very large proportion of the people participating in this conversation at the most visible levels) is going to see any attempt to frame this type of content as valuable in any way as totally incomprehensible, evil, and malicious itself. So this part of things is pretty close to an impossible conversation to have in public.

Default keyboard shortcuts suddenly made so much more sense - and I can code without having to use my nose when I run out of fingers for modifier keys.

>Euro as a common currency makes travel super convenient for example, not to mention the Schengen area and open borders.

Perhaps the various recommendations made in the late 80s and early 90s would be useful to reconsider. Hayek, for example, often suggested that the EEC could make every member nation's currency legal tender in all the others, to create a free market of currencies. He was a big fan of denationalising currencies anyway, and of having currencies compete against each other.

Another proposal on the table for many years was the idea of launching the Euro as a parallel currency to every nation's own currency. So, you could still pay your restaurant bills accross Europe with a single currency if you wanted to, but nations would still be able to fluctuate against it in case of trade surplus or deficit, the very thing that has been putting so much stress on the Euro's frequent deficit members (i.e. Greece, Portugal and Spain), and stress on the Euro itself.

You are right, we have multiple applications, it makes it way easier to maintain them. It would be a nightmare if everything (splash pages, dashboard, blog and any other app you can have) was bundled into a single application, be it SPA or MPA.

Agree, it's all about the user's experience for us, we use whatever tool we feel enable us to build the best UX (without breaking the web).
Hello everyone! Thanks for the awesome feedback. We're amazed with the positive reception we've gotten.

Answers to your questions:

1 - Living wills - This is one of our most requested features. We expect to have a national footprint within the next few months. We will notify all of our customers in each state to let them know as it becomes available.

2 - Interface and notifications - We are working on a significant improvement to the UX. We're thinking really hard about how, when and where to share the right amount of information. As adam mentioned, this is a particularly sensitive topic which we really want to get right.

3 - Business model and fees - We currently do not earn fees from our customers or providers. The service is truly and unconditionally free. We're taking a novel approach to this problem that hasn't been done before and will share more when the time is right.

Look forward to feedback from the hn community as we evolve.

There's an even bigger bonus that in ten years the battery pack will probably be cheaper and have a better range. So while the replacement may be expensive the car will be dramatically better afterwards.

This, in my book, is an unknown. I though Tesla said batteries are getting better 10% a year / 18 months. And I'm sure replacing bad cells will be cheaper than the whole pack.

Someone smart will make a machine that will help me test good cells from bad. Someone else will be ripping good cells out of junked cars.

Someone else will be doing hire purchase on batteries - £200 a year, battery pack replaced every 2,000 charges? Something like that? Sounds fine to me.
No idea why that's the case but I'll mention it to our front-end team
I believe that some things shouldn't be SPAs (but, unfortunately are). Some of our clients[1] use SPAs for regular websites (which just makes me eyeroll).

A good example for a SPA would be something like a webmail client, a word processor, or a chat.

A bad example of it would be a blog, or a product website; these are much more suited for MPW

I'm conflicted wheteher these would benefit from a SPA or not: discussion boards, web shops and the like. I can see them benefiting from SPA, but I can also see some disadvantages. I guess they'd be more suited for a "hybrid solution" (MPW with some AJAX and/or WebSockets).

Gas stations have one shot at survival over the next 30 years: Hydrogen Fuel Cell Vehicles (FCVs).

Part of the reason traditional manufacturers have been reluctant to pursue BEVs (battery-electric vehicles) is that many were betting on liquefied hydrogen as an energy delivery mechanism for FCVs. I presume this was from pressure from current energy companies.

Hydrogen benefits current energy interests because customers would fill up their cars in a way roughly analogous to today's gas stations. Even though the "fuel" product and drivetrain are different, gas stations can adapt for hydrogen.

That is just way too complicated to work out, though, and I think traditional automakers are at the point where they are giving up. The hydrogen infrastructure is hugely expensive and the resulting automotive products are not that much more convenient than BEVs.

Tesla's Gigafactory, enabling products like their PowerWall, is the most straightforward way for us as a society to use more renewables. The problem with wind and solar has always been spotty, inconsistent power generation, and with enough battery capacity, that is no longer an issue. That is a bad sign for gas stations, but an opportunity to pivot for traditional energy companies.
Well, if all I have to do is run the script, I can just import it into my git repo (by submoduling iterm2's git repo, if they have one; if they don't, they need one just for this script), and just call it normally (with a bit of if wrapper to not execute on non-iterm2 terms).
I use ProxyCommand for tor hidden services, for connecting to IPv6 hosts (via a v4 connection to a host with v6 connectivity), for connecting to production past a bastion host, for triggering port knocking, all sorts of stuff.

I think you misunderstand the case in question, but I'm also responsible for a poor choice of words.

If you're talking about the Coastnews case, then the speech in question is that of the search engine operator, eg Google, Bing or whoever - not that of the person conducting the search. This is what I meant when I say 'Your search results' but on re-reading I can see that this only confused matters.

http://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2014/11/court-agrees-that...

So let me put it this way: Your search results are not part of your free speech, but of the search engine operator's. If a firm chooses not to share information with you because of where you live, the firm is exercising its own right to free speech, notwithstanding the fact that you end up getting less information than you hoped for and that this is undesirable for you.

How much this virus scaning web project can cost?
Hello. My project have got unique design and text, logo and firmstyle (visitcards, proposal submissions design, presentations for customers and investors), own analytics system of scaning, contacts, services and promo pages.

Main idea is in virus scaning, if site is dangerous for users, after scaning system will offer removing services. If site is not dangerous, system will offer secure services for more higher protection. Peoples can tell about their safety resource in social networks or with banners, which they can install on their website.

All dangerous sites goes to database, if peoples are not making an order, you can sell proposal submission to them, if you want.

The projects works in two languages (english and russian, I was translate it in english few days ago). Project was started in Russia and gave interest to peoples, customers and investors, but not give big money for me. I think about selling all to someone with domain, site, code, phone and may be with registered russian company for this project.

I have got a lot of ideas, but not have some time for this project, so, I want to sell it. For example: spider, which walks in internet, scan all of it and collect infected, then send to all info about virus activity, offer services. Or mobile applications for scaning, browser plugins, which scan opened website before page loading.

So, this project can be very interesting for IT professionals or enterpreneurs. I will be happy to sell it to good arms. But I don't know how much it can cost. Can you give some advices to me about it? And where I can sell it?

I live in Australia. I have private health insurance. It's an old policy from when I was employed with a package. The policy costs no more than when it was part of that package. That's maybe because the policy is priced based on me (age mostly) rather than the employer. I'm not 100% sure why there's no real difference between employer based policies and personal policies.

Anyway point is the problem is solve able.

"The BFED will carefully select third party code based on the quality of the code itself by reviewing source code, not based on the popularity of said code. He/she favours reliability over popularity every time."

The power of popularity should not be underestimated, there are very large and powerful network effects that popularity brings to the table.

Popular code

-has more tutorials/blog/books written about it

-has more Q & A on Stackoverflow

-is easier to hire for

All frameworks have problems with better designed frameworks having less.
For popular frameworks you're in luck, because somebody has already figured out all the work-arounds to common problems. But on an unpopular one you have to figure out all those work-arounds yourself.

spent time talking about the severance.

Often severance can be negotiated on an individual basis. Typically you start with some base amount (4 weeks + 2 weeks for every year at the company), but that can vary for different roles. e.g. when a CEO is fired, they typically get larger severance packages than bottom-of-the-org-chart employees (because, try putting out a job request: "Will be CEO for food." World doesn't work that way.)

Also, severance payments+benefits aren't some magic gift from a company—it's a legal contract giving you monetary compensation in return for things like not disparaging the company in the future. Any time a company tries to bind your future actions outside of employment, you have room for negotiation.

You misrepresent my argument. It's not about stripping people of benefits, it's about not forcing contractors to become employees. Paying a gross salary and letting the person choose their own benefits from that is better for all involved. If someone wants to be tax efficient for retirement contributions, vehicles, whatever, then let them do so. Others may prefer to claim all their income and just pay the tax.

Separating the makeup of compensation and benefits is separate from organizing to negotiate for higher pay. You do t need a permanent union to organize for benefits.
So how can you escape from a 10-meter tsunami, like the 11-meter Tohoku tsunami that wrecked Fukushima Dai-Ichi, assuming you have years to prepare?

You could build buildings that could withstand the water flowing around them, as the nuclear reactor center itself did; but windows that can survive not just ten meters of water pressure but also cars and trees being dashed against them by the tsunami are going to be less like windows and more like plastic-filled tunnels to the daylight.

You could ensure that all of your buildings are at least 10 meters tall, built to withstand the tsunami without collapsing, and with adequate escape routes to the upper floors, space therein to ensure that everyone can escape, and emergency supplies (e.g. first-aid kits, food, water, insulin) to keep incidental deaths to a minimum. Then you just have to get everyone up four flights of stairs before the tsunami hits. The bottom floors will fill with water, destroying everybody's TV, and then recede. Maybe make it 20 meters, just in case the tsunami is extra huge, like the Kuril Islands tsunami of 2006.

Or you could build your houses a meter underground. You might lose the top 50cm of dirt cover, and if you illuminate with lightpipes, your lightpipes will fill with silt and other mud; but you should be able to keep your subterranean house well enough sealed that the water itself won’t be a problem. Escaping the house after the water recedes, though, may be a problem if you turn out to be in a sediment-deposition zone instead of an erosion zone. Tunneling out, using a door built to open inwards specifically for this purpose, may be your only option.

Other options are possible; Stapledon’s Star Maker suggests taking flight when the water is incoming, but that would seem to require a sufficient population of evacuation helicopters to evacuate the entire population within the few minutes of warning you have. This is probably not possible for biological humans. And if you have boats, especially if you live in boats, you could take them a few hundred meters offshore and be, in all likelihood, perfectly fine.
