>passively tolerant of people who are actively seeking to kidnap, shoot, and bomb us, just because they haven't broken the law. WTF? This statement doesn't have a modicum of sense in it. Seeking to kidnap or murder in the conte

Unless we discuss this issue in terms of cost/benefit analysis of various strategies I don't see a reason to continue this discussion.

Piwik is fine open-source software, I won't argue with that. However, it isn't really comparable in advanced features with GA: * advanced funnel analysis, such as multi-channel funnels * attribution models and analysis * advanced

I trust Mozilla and fully support this pragmatic approach. The only alternative is total domination of for-profit megacorps who have diminishingly small concern for public benefit. Thank you for your contribution to the free/open web.

Sure, I'd love to elaborate on benefits for Mozilla and others that arise from use of GA. The list won't be exhaustive but will provide enough examples. 1. Mozilla launches a new translation initiative for Firefox that is announce

Huh, am I? Has anyone offended by this "transgression" of privacy by Mozilla thought this through to its logical conclusion? Let's see. 1. Mozilla is one of the good, independent orgs that don't have profit as their main

I agree and I believe that at first automation won't be integrated in the boeings and airbuses but will grow and evolve from inside the drone industry.

by vdaniuk 11y ago
That's not a good comparison due to the difference in risks and returns. Airplanes are expensive, are subject to international regulations and possess extreme damage potential. Trucks can be confined to desert roads (like in Australia)

Some time ago tptacek argued against a suggestion that HN members include disclosure of their company/org affiliation in threads with possible conflicts of interest. This was a suggestion that at least merited a rational, constructive

Writing, sharing or upvoting "I fucking hate X" posts doesn't contribute anything to "the first step to fixing a problem".

Feeling hate and spreading hate towards technology domain that is known as "web" and its ecosystem because of trite and banal grievances with some of the products of some corporations is "right"? If that is so I don&#x27

Banalities, myopia, lack of perspective, bad boring writing, pandering to misconceptions does not make a good rant.

The fact that this post is currently #3 on HN homepage and has ~100 comments in support is a strong indication to limit investment of time and effort in HN as a source of knowledge and HN community as a source of rational discussion. EDIT:

cmder was my gateway drug to moving from windows to linux and from gui to ~50% cli use. Cygwin didn't produce quite the same effect. Also, cmder is gorgeous :)

Okay, Nim is really fast in these benchmarks on ec2 servers, impressive. Does anyone has experience with nim web stack? Is it ready for prime time? How much effort is required to create a simple CRUD json api? On a sidenote I am really look

Yep, I can't define it precisely but something about Atom has this comfortable feel. What Haskell package would you recommend, btw?

Atom is now my primary text editor for miscellaneous tasks, quick fixes and languages that are not supported by Jetbrains IDE plugin ecosystem. It can't match the refactoring and autocompletion capabilities but it is a very useful addi

I like rethinkdb and have been successfully using their official ruby and js libraries for some time. Nobrainer orm wasn't fun though, too many edge cases that interfere with activerecord and rails conventions. Going a bit on a tangent

There are some similarities, but there are even more differences. LLCs and startups are usually much smaller and their behaviour as a collectively entitity is much more dependent on the personal quirks of the founders/top management. N

Absolutely not surprised. While being sympathetic to ethos of the general torrent community, I don't think that Bittorrent Inc. is one of the good guys. Too closed, too profit oriented, too corporate in their ways. Bittorrent Inc. is b

Dude, version name is a great vessel for branding and promotion. Most distros have version names and version numbers, it's not hard to dereference a version name and they serve a purpose. More brand awareness for open source projects =
