Wireless has traditionally been left out of common carrier / nn talks because its easier to compete in infra-structurally compared to running cabling.

From personal experience: Hiring your designer buddy who lives in San Diego while the two other guys in your company lives elsewhere entitles you to pay $800 a year in somewhat unexpected tax, even though you're not selling any services to any CA companies. Yea, jumped in feet first, but really did not enjoy the $800 bill that came with it.

I think this is a great example of the saying "There are two types of companies: those who have been hacked, and those who know they've been hacked"

They have ~300 employees. So 33M is not a crazy price to pay. ~110k USD/employee/year. Considering the industry they're in (information and tech) this is totally reasonable.

Otherwise no big deal that it may or may not fit your values to donate to Wikimedia.

And if you realize it I imagine your strike price was $0, so its full profit. IANAL tho.

I do this for manual buys when I'm doing large purchases/sells. However something I am willing to pay this .25-1% fee on is monthly automated purchases of cryptos for speculative holding.

Because they can get more money faster by selling the mining units. Mining is not a guaranteed return but selling a unit is. Plus large scale mining requires a large capital risk (electricity), that is compounded with the large capital investment into the hardware.

Plus if they have significant BTC reserves (I believe they do) then selling mining equipment strengthens the BTC network and improves the value, maybe, of their current holdings.

"There are two hard problems in Computer Science: naming things, cache invalidation, and off by one errors"

People give up on the naming things because the name they're seeing makes sense to them in that moment and they may not realize how confused they'll be when they come back to the code in 3 months. May be a lack of experience in maintaining "old code" or just part of the programming culture they're in.

I'd wager that uranium (as with all the heavier elements) is spread throughout the solar system as it is forged and spread in stars going supernovae/hypernovae

You also get write access to private profile information:

"This application will be able to read and write all user data. This includes the following:

Private email addresses Private profile information Followers"

Yes that may be true, but that also means BTC is essentially in a deflationary period as the buying power of the currency is currently going up with time (unlike most Fiat, which the buying power tends to decrease during an inflationary period) so holding BTC makes sense to a lot of players with it. So there is a bit of an incentive for its use as a speculative instrument.

A lot of the speculative buyers don't really understand how volatile BTC can be and that it is a usable currency.

The reason I say its in a deflationary period (while demonstrably false as more BTC are being produced by miners) is because its BTC / person interested in BTC seems to be decreasing.

If a single entity owned all BTC produced it would be largely worthless. There would also be no speculative value in it as no one would have any horse in the race. The value of BTC is driven by the network of BTC and its ability to be used in transactions as well as a speculative instrument.

Given that, If your question is altered to somehow own all of it while keeping its value, i'd rather the 100B easily liquidated assets over 10B revenue yoy.

I think they're legally required to have drivers at the moment.

I think sending from a no-reply with a reply-to defined works though.

Especially with a centralized authority being LO3. I don't get the point of using a blockchain in this case, who is confirming the transacations? What is the incentive for confirmation?

Also if LO3s customers are just buying from the grid, are they paying LO3 on top of what they pay their utility? If so what is the value added by LO3 at all?

I would also be up for some reading regarding optimizations/architecture choices for a 10:1::write:read setup.

Depends on the state.

They are guaranteeing for that producer their power is purchased at x$/whatever for 20 years. Massively lowers the risk profile for the wind farm, and lets them focus on potentially expanding. Google is basically acting as a subsidizer of renewable energy here. So while yes they rely on the grid, they're a market force for increasing the percent of the power produced on the grid to be renewable.

Every MW produced by the renewable is a MW not needed to be produced by natural gas/coal

I also emphatically suggest D.Knuth's "The Art of Computer Programming". Super dense, not like a sit down and read from cover to cover, but really good set to have around.

Takl | Junior Full Stack Web Developer (Rails) | Nashville, TN | ONSITE, SALARY, https://takl.com/careers/senior-full-stack-web-developer/

Takl is a well funded startup based in the Nashville, TN area whose mission is to make it as easy as possible to hire people on demand to complete small jobs around the house . We're looking for senior and junior ruby on rails guys to help us grow our app. You would be joining a small but growing team and addressing real issues as we scale.

Speaking as a senior dev I spend most of my time in the backend and lot less time in the front if that affects your idea of which side of the full stack you would end up working on the most.

Contact us through the form on the linked site, feel free to mention HN! Junior role applicants use the senior application link just mention you're looking for a junior role.

Facebook auth is also failing for me as I receive an internal server error during auth.

Here in DC, TLAs and the like (in this case a FLA/5LA) are the preferred method of communication.

I've had to negotiate scope of NCs at all but one job. I've had to change enforcement period length and industry scopes. So many times the scope has been interpretable as all software ever, and I've seen terms of 2 years. Generally I'll accept NCs for the same industry and for up to 6 months after termination.

I was told a clause was unenforceable, and used the reasoning "So we can remove it from the contract?" and they wanted me to work with them so they took it out.

My usual approach with NCs is to reign in the scope of them. I've had some that could be interpreted I couldn't write any software for anyone else for up to a year.

I'm curious as to why a movie review is on the front page of HN. This seems out of scope for HN.

I've made 8-10% per year (defaults included) for the past 2 years on lending club. There are investment limits based on your income that you legally have to follow. I believe its 5% of your income/assets max. They don't confirm your income/assets but there are regulations related to it.

It also takes work to liquidate quickly. So if not selling notes on a second market you're locked into your investments for up to 5 years.

But it was a Canadian based company so there may be quite a few Canadians in there. Also see: http://www.cbc.ca/news/business/ashley-madison-says-1-in-5-o...

A coworker of mine, definitely not me, left an html comment in a template for a page on a fairly big website that read similar to "Help I'm trapped in a website factory". So anyone perusing the generated html might read that. Similar to the xkcd pi joke: https://xkcd.com/10/

Agreedo on increase in the pricing and removing the free tier. Free tier is where you will spend all of your time in support with not much to show for it. Maybe not $100/mo as that will prevent most of the mom and pop shops, maybe move the free tier to $20/mo and the real deal to $99/mo. Pricing is hard.

They don't for aerosols/ozone past the 50s I dont think.

But carbon/methane/NO/etc... they get from ice samples that have trapped air bubbles from quite a long time ago. They also take a ton of samples from ice cores and the data is reproducible both in the north and south poles. I believe temperature is also learned from the ice samples.
