And then your teammate then takes a week to build an API that's only compatible with your hacked out code you wrote in twenty minutes. Now you've wasted both your time and her time…

I really don't buy this. Attribution of anyone is incredibly difficult. It's easy for the US to officially point fingers and turn it into a geopolitical play. There is every incent…

Yep. Solar wind also contributes. It's possible to set the solar panels to be orthogonal to these forces which can induce maximum drag.

I think the actual confusion is about a centralized distributed system vs a peer-to-peer distributed system, which is probably what (still totally wrong) PhD student meant.

I agree with you in that this is an excellent and demonstrably valuable use case for Bitcoin - we saw the same thing happen in Cyprus with the protests there. I don't think I agree…

An open source Boundary?

I prefer Papers 3 - would rather be in control of my saved papers than rely on a SaaS that could go out of business whenever.

Ok, so you know that "facebook" is part of the original hash. Not following how you can also derive "mypassword" from it. If you have a good strong master password, rainbow tables …

Compromising one of these passwords does not at all mean that all the other passwords are compromised. You can't figure out the original master password from a hashed, compromised …

As opposed to a password manager, where it's trivial to know every password within if you know the master password?

Really? I find that most Berliners speak wonderful English.

Is this an Impala competitor?

This is a narrative that I don't know how to evaluate. In this case, I'd agree that there's a lack of innovation, but to extrapolate that it is part of a larger narrative is someth…

I studied philosophy, and I also tacked on a CS degree. In retrospect, the CS degree wasn't necessary - all the programming I needed to know for a job I was able to pick up on the …

Wondering - what's wrong with SSH? Is it considered insecure?

You realize that most of HN readers are engineers, and like most engineers, they are perfectly normal human beings without "antisocial beliefs"?

Short sighted? You think that being pro-gay marriage is being on the wrong side of history?

The most productive thing is to quit. Anyone who, in 2014, is still not paying interns is most likely not someone who can teach you anything. There is still plenty of time to find …

Datatau isn't doing too bad.

I usually go for DyGraphs. Simple + easy to use + lots of configuration + excellent docs
