   Are there any reasons to be worried about security?

   I'm glad the OP brought this up and I think its an important topic for the HN 'community'. Innovation loves support. When innovation is supported, you get more innovation. On several occasions, I've seen a poor soul post a project on here

   In general, I find that if the conversation stays civil, the topic retains the spotlight and is not overshadowed by personalities and hurt feelings. In other words, IME, you can 'cut through the bullshit' w/o being a dick and you'll achieve

   They call it network effects: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_effect Notoriously difficult to dethrone. Craigslist being such a piece of crap for so long is an object lesson in the power of network effects.

   I wonder if will it be possible to associate user defined clojurescript commands with arbitrary vim keybindings? That would be great! Also, I wonder if there will be support for user defined vim like operators and motions... Or, alternat

   Wow, purty screenshot. What's the emacs theme you're using?

    Funny, I just started using evil too. You might want to checkout prelude/projectile if you haven't yet. Also, less obviously for a vimmer, keychord.el. I'm able to use 'jk' for ESC, for instance. For others interested, the brief evil ma

    Don't hate the playa, hate the game. They are using other people's money -- given the current system, they had a fiduciary responsibility to do this, unfortunately. Maybe the lesson is to not take other people's money, but investment really

    It's a generator. It generates files. Typing it out would be less magical, but then it wouldn't be a generator. To me, git diff seems like a fine way to see what it did, tbh.

    Thank you for your answer. If you're right and this is the Go way to do it (and I have no reason to doubt you), it's exactly what I was afraid of. I can see why for loops would just read better. Feels like a step in the wrong direction th

    Hey OP! I appreciate your sharing. Since you came from ruby and we're on the topic of the language itself, I'd appreciate your impression of how well Go supports collections. Is there or could one write something like http://underscorej

    Let's just say I'm not rushing to hire you either :) Seriously though, I agree that -- obviously -- there are aspects of human interaction that collaborative tech can't touch, as it were. My primary point is that working at home is not wor

    by methehack 14y ago

    The very term "work from home" suggests separation. That's the wrong model. This is not about introverts and extroverts. Working with a remote team is not a choice about whether to collaborate or not. When a team is set up properly, remo

    Can you elaborate? Do you think your employer provided health insurance is related? If so, how?

    After reading the article, that would be me. Why do you think they've worked their asses off to be able to shut off our power grid? Can you think of an explanation that isn't just a little bit spooky?

    Kills me that otherwise intelligent consumers are unwilling to pay for something as expensive to create and as high quality as the new york times. Makes me want to give up on product development altogether. Seriously -- if that's not good

    I agree -- wow! Seems like it also competes with firebase. And it seems like it would also be useful in some cases where you'd otherwise use meteor or derby.

    Picking on transclusion seems really unfair. It's a well known rough spot in the docs and has been addressed in a bunch of places outside the formal docs that aren't hard to find. Plus, you can do tons with the framework without touching

    "Did you read the original article or just the news story?", he asked, exasperated. The article that the news story references was just published in Nature, which has been around since 1869, is peered reviewed, well-respected, oft-cited, an
