Do it! Theres a good few on eBay already so the market is there. I love and collect old-school tech company work shirts. Once literally bought the shirt off a guys back out one night because he had a nice DELL shirt. Offered him €10 for it and he took it and was immediately escorted off the premises for being topless.

Have about 6 so far and my most prized one is the red IBM shirt. IBM! RED! It's brilliant. Now, While I love them, the cut on these shirts is absolute crap. Fits grand on neck and wrist but is the poofiest thing everywhere else. You yanks! Would pay extra to have it cut to a better fit.

In terms of market, if you get the brand right you might be able to skirt both earnest tech-heads and the Vaporwave kids who like this kind of stuff: http://www.ebay.ie/itm/Japanese-Windows-Long-Sleeve-Tee-T-Sh...
Twilio Closes $130M Series E Round Led by Fidelity and T. Rowe Price
There are many queries for which using an index is a worse query plan than running them with it. Indexes are not silver-bullet.

Plus having queries to fail if not use an index... seems worse than just having slower (if that would be the case) queries.
I love how I can run Crysis 2 on my laptop on Ultra with >30 FPS, and I'd be lucky to get ~24 FPS on this.
Why didn't you just use Search?
So true. But, it's good to see these hypocrites finally expose themselves.
It's true in general. Shares don't get smaller. Just the percentages of total ownership. Which doesn't matter if the share price is going up.

I use it on my primary work machine (after much cautious testing). It seems much more stable than 10.10.4 for me, but keep in mind, it's still in beta for a reason.

It could break with any update, or be unreliable with certain hardware configurations
Yahoo Unveils Its Audio-Free Video Messaging App, Livetext
I figured the info would be easy enough to source with a quick search, as everyone has different sources they prefer to trust and I didn't want to make it about the source since it's all public record anyway. For example, if you like Jon Stewart, you can get it from him, but if he rubs you the wrong way, you can find the information elsewhere.

I did post a link in response to another comment here, but I'd still recommend doing your own research for the big picture. The war on whistleblowers is a very recent development in US history, and no previous administration has come down in the same way as this one.

This is partially a reflection of modern technology because information is so much easier to distribute today but also because the level of serveillance carried out by the government requires keeping more secrets than ever.
This is nice service and I like these kind of microservices, but I miss security here. I think you should consider some integration with services such as metascan-online.com(I work for company who is creating this), or other services for file scans. I always try to answer following question with services like this:

How can I know, that there is no malware in the shared file?

Came here to make the same recommendation. I've fallen off in my reading but I'm gonna catch up in the fall.
I think the headline for #1 is a bit misleading. I'd infer that teams with a female founder doing better than ones without one does not correlate to "Female Founders Outperform Their Male Peers." I'd think a better title would be more along the lines of, "Diverse Founding Teams Outperform All-male Ones."

One potential issue is one we're very cognizant of here in Hollywood: being typecast. We considered this carefully before deciding to make our video public.

Keep in mind, we're a very early stage company. Our video reflects that, and our product video reflects the early product we have shipped (although we do hope you download and try Cuddli instead of just watching the video!). With the wide distribution and high profile that anything linked to YC is likely to attract, we may well be creating an impression with potential future partners, investors, and employees. This is likely the reason why most of the startups in this competition haven't chosen to make their video public.
Nice service. You should considered a default expiration (a week?) to lighten the load, and an option for multiple downloads (?dl=3) so the first n get a copy or multiple tries if corrupted.

Also, you don't keep logs but what about your cloud provider? What guarantees can you make about them, and what responsibility do programmers have to explain the risks to the public? It seems wrong to say "anonymous and secure" without some qualifiers: you must use https, unencrypted files might be copied by the cloud provider, etc...
Python.org and Twitter also get a 10/10 for me. That score is rare because (by default in SSleuth) you need an EV certificate to get the last 1 point and most sites don't have one (and many that do, like the banks I use, don't use the best TLS configuration). I personally treat a 9/10 with a DV certificate as secure as 10/10 with an EV certificate.

You're correct on the latter point; the Media Center functionality (not to be confused with Media Player) was used by very few.

That said, if you have cable TV in the US, it was the best way to use your own hardware to watch cable TV.

Of course, but engineers are expensive. When is it ever in the employer's interest to get less output from them? Meet with them in person, do code reviews and such as often as you'd like, but once you've defined a problem for them to solve, what possible value could you get by keeping them in a distracting work environment?
Do you mean these?

I agree with respect to traditional architectures but most of our stuff runs from our cache layer (97% of queries are cache hits) so we're moving to lots of smaller and cheaper instances with a cache front end (memcached). We literally use the database as a storage engine going forward and nothing clever.
Statistics, both invented and real, are used all the time by people who want a tool to silence those who disagree with them. But two facts make this a dangerous and inaccurate form of argument: one, statistics can only be used to disprove something, and two, different studies often show wildly different results. If you actually dig into the number that people quote, you'll quickly find other studies that report different numbers, use different criteria and show different conclusions. But you'll only hear someone quote a single study, because it's the one that benefits their argument the most.
Just waiting for the paper to come out that'll detail all the transformations that were done on the training data specifically for the phone and how did they arrive at deciding to use them.

> To achieve real-time, we also heavily optimized and hand-tuned the math operations. That meant using the mobile processor’s SIMD instructions and tuning things like matrix multiplies to fit processing into all levels of cache memory.

Let's see how this turns out to be. I'm still skeptical if other apps might crash because of this.
> But there is a lot of work for the compiler here, wow. Knowing the maximum number of registers that is needed for any function call made within a function? Ouch.

That shouldn't be too difficult. The compiler is already type-checking the parameters of every call within the function. Remembering the highest count won't take much more work, and it's capped at 8 anyway.

> Support for multiple return values is cool though. That'd be incredibly nice.

Agreed. So many processors seem designed just to run C. Then when something extra like multiple returns appears, it goes unused.
If your goal is to be a top 10 investment, 32. If your goal is to get funding, 25. Most founders, I would suspect, especially at First Round's target, are happy to get investment period, even if they aren't in the top 10 (yet).

I think a lot of these figures are correlated. Multi-company founders command higher valuations, who will tend to be older than their first-company peers, so it makes sense the top 10 list is slightly older on average.
I would be interested in this as well. So far I found a similar app called Mitzuli which is based on open source tools:

You could say very much the same about the brain...

> [...] the "black magic" part comes mostly from their mathematical nature and very little from them being "inteligent computers". A brain is a graph, in which a subset of neurons are "inputs", some are outputs, and others are "hidden". The nodes are interconnected between each other in a fashion, which is called the "topology" or sometimes "architecture" of the net.

The deep question about deep learning is "Why is it so bloody effective?"
The browser’s UI, of course.

This is uncompelling. Just having layers of airspace like that doesn't really address the main issue, which is that in order to get to any layer you have to transit the layer below. Even giant commercial flights end up below 500 feet all the time of course, well at least twice for every flight.

It also has some real issues in that it's glossing over the challenges of steep terrain and obstacles. Most of our air navigation takes place by reference to MSL altitude (i.e. relative to sea level), but this is exclusively based on AGL (i.e. relative to ground level). Not an insurmountable challenge of course but it seems like they are skipping a lot of important parts. Same impression of the "real time data" plan, which sounds extremely complex in the context of aviation.

The overall impression is that nobody has really thought this through particularly, that this is more of a conversation starter at best.

From the article:

'Studies and scans showed that the box was made of non-English silver, and originated in continental Europe many decades before it reached Jamestown.

Horn said he believed it was a sacred, public reliquary, as opposed to a private item, because it contained so many pieces of bone.'

'There are no plans to open it.'

(Employee of imgix here.)

Most of our feature benefits are derived from being a "full-stack" imaging solution. Because we know a lot more about the request and the client, we're able to perform operations to deliver the best image possible. One of the ways we do this is our automatic content negotiation strategy, which will serve up WebP images for Chrome, JPEG XR for IE 10+, etc. These more modern file formats tend to be much smaller, with some of our customers seeing a 40% reduction in their CDN bills as a result.

We're also able to push all of the work to our GPUs on our servers without worrying about noisy neighbors. This means our mean render time is 80ms, with the 90th percentile being 150ms. We wrote about our solution of racking Mac Pros: http://photos.imgix.com/racking-mac-pros

Sure, you can configure your own ImageMagick setup to do all of this. As you build this out, whether as an internal or external service, the economic realities of running ImageMagick in a virtualized environment catch up with you. It’s difficult to do this affordably and in a set-it-and-forget-it manner.

When explaining the benefits of imgix, I'm often reminded of the old jwz quote, "Linux is only free if your time has no value." Having stood up a few ImageMagick instances at previous jobs, I was happy to see imgix come along. Fast-forward a few years, and now I work there :)
It isn't really necessary to define words on HN. I think most of us have a good idea of what common English words mean. It appears as though you genuinely, by your own admission, have no knowledge of the r-word's history of use in the latter half of the 20th century. My uncle was born in the late 1940s and has intellectual disabilities that were severely exacerbated by years spent in "mental health" facilities. Before that fate befell him, my grandmother founded one of the first schools for children with intellectual disabilities in her state. It was known then as the County School for Retarded Children. This was the appropriate term back then. Doctors, researchers, teachers, and legislators all used the r-word to describe people with intellectual disabilities. It took decades for that to fade from use, yet the stigma remains. This is how the term came to be conflated with people who are "considered dumb" as you say. That only makes it worse. People with intellectual disabilities are certainly not dumb.

Now, you claimed that the r-word has "not ever meant mentally disabled." That's simply not true.
Fixed that, somehow that slipped through, thanks for the heads up :)

I wouldn't have a problem with it if the authors didn't claim it was novel or original. As an introduction to the concept, the article is fine.
Man. That sweater is cool though.
We don't actually know if that's what the data shows. For one, diversity can refer to age, race, national origin, etc. They only refer to sex, all those other forms of diversity could actually be a negative for all we know.

Additionally, it's possible teams with 100% female founders do better than ones with a mix of sexes among the founders. That would mean again that diversity is not good, but being female is.

Obviously though, this is an n of 300. I would guess that includes less than 100 companies with female founders, making it not exactly proven.
This is a really great intro. I like how it expands on the basic flux diagram that I see everywhere.

One thing missing from many flux tutorials and sample applications that I would love to see included is error handling. How do you manage errors in your flux applications? Do you keep them in the store? If using something like react-router, how do you ensure you flush errors from the store as your routes change and they are no longer applicable to the data in view?
Opera Mobile works, but sadly it's only available for Android. Only mobile browser that can handle full desktop sites without excessive horizontal scrolling, most of the time well enough desktop versions become preferable to "mobile" versions. Not to be confused with rather useless Opera Mini.

I was the victim of identity theft about 14 years ago from someone employed at my company. My personal situation wasn't too bad, they opened some credit cards. But other employees had their brokerage accounts broken into. In California at least you can "freeze" your credit reports which means you have to pay a small fee and unlock them with a pin code to get credit. I did that many years ago and while it's occasionally a hassle I think it is well worth it to avoid people opening credit in your name.
I think it's actual costs.
Journalists need to start making a stronger distinction between Tor end-use and hidden services. End-use is solid - hidden services are experimental.

That said, the fact that this research can identify what hidden service a user accesses skirts that line. On the other hand, that doesn't sound too different from a typical timing attack (something that Tor doesn't try to prevent).

That first tweet succinctly explains flux in less than 140 characters.

At the end of the day, pretty much every react "best practice" I've seen converges on approaches that raynos/mercury offer out-of-the-box.

React's decision to allow local state inside components was an "original sin" and every single engineers that decides to author a library to make React/Flux simpler is really just engineering around the poor decision of allowing local state.

Have of those should, might, could update if they felt like it react class props are unnecessary complexity that had to be bolted on to overcome issues with local state.

Here's a better approach:

(1) components that are pure functions that take in state that they should render. state hasn't changed? don't call the function

(2) components that have state that needs to be tracked can export a function that produces an instance of the state that component consumes

(3) compose the state of the UI, by calling the state instantiating function of all the components in your UI. Nest as appropriate.

(4) Make sure all these state instances are bijective lenses that keep one source of truth for a certain state value. Everywhere that state is needed or could be modified receives that "cursor" via dependency injection. The simplest example demonstrating a state cursor is the raynos/observ library.

The composed state object is the waist of your app hourglass, just like IP is the waist of the Internet. All I/O modifies state and that state propagates from there. Anything rendered to the screen is the O in I/O. Any events coming from your mouse or other peripheral is the I in I/O. Any syncing via XHR or websockets can be the I and the O in I/O. All I/O flows to the state.

Anything that needs to react to changes in that state have two options: subscribe to state change events (push) or read the current state as necessary (pull).

This really isn't all that hard and React/Flux has overcomplicated things immensely and given it a flashy name. The myriad libraries that purport to make it easier and simpler are just overcompensating for something that fundamentally needs to be re-engineered, but won't because it breaks backwards compatibility and requires people to move state logic (read: business logic) out of the component classes (that probably shouldn't have been there in the first place).

Few IT departments will allow opting-out -- it'll be part of how your work computer is setup, and part of your job to use it.
I think solitaire is pretty well free everywhere, so if you want this specific app, what are you gonna pay a couple bucks? I'm on the fence, on the one hand I like when companies are called out on nitpicky stuff, but on the other hand if it were free, something else will be charged to make up for the hours of dev time used to streamline it.

all in all with Windows 10 this is pretty minor. Turns out that buying a deck of cards and playing solitaire still costs money for the deck of cards which people (labor) ultimately were responsible produced and shipped. And the real card decks don't automatically shuffle itself, keep a tally or set up games for you.
This is such an interesting angle on making technical tools more accessible. I can't say I have a use for including functions in spreadsheets — but when I imagine where this could go it's exciting.

I think we should be encouraging college students to get that experience at mature companies earlier -- ideally as soon as the summer after freshman year.

That way, by the time they graduate from college (or hit third year and drop out) they'll be poised for success (assuming that a successful startup is your definition of success).
