fuck man, wish you'd upload this to a website or dropbox, now NSA is all up in my bugger. I feel violated just by visiting the domain

8pm PACIFIC

it's now 8:42pm PACIFIC.

that explains it. I feel like a lot of these startup companies cater to SV because outside of SV people are completely unaware or unappreciative (doesn't see any disruption in note taking move along).

Makes me wonder how many SV unicorns will flop next year. My prediction is Twitter and Hoosuite.

what's evernote again? I keep hearing about it but never seen it or have used it.

what static site generators out there exists that is easy to setup on a ubuntu server?

"It's the most amazing board game ever yet the most useless one at the same time, depends who opens the box and observes it. In one of the infinite universe, there's one where a hot blonde female android will appear out of the box eager to please."

> Seriously, to all the silicon valley startups and investors: get over yourself. You are not changing the world.

Pretty much this but I find it admirable. Such is the spirit that ultimately changes the world if it means tolerating some pretty darn awful ones.

Send me a 'Yo' if you think this article is cool

beginning to see lot of domains with .rocks

it's easy to remember I find. like I was looking for react examples and came across react.rocks, I wouldn't have rememb

this reminds me of all the cloud based enterprise tools that depend on AWS that proudly shows 'HIPAA compliant, Securely hosted on Enterprise Grade Cloud from AWS'.

>Insurance Authority area, there are nearly 3 million payment entries dating back to 1987 that contain the following fields:

that is insane

    They took everything he had, and promised that if he gave 
    himself up to the System, in return the System would take 
    care of him.

    It turned out to be a lie.

    We’re all Jason Bourne now.

I read this with a tongue in cheek but walked away with a profound sense of camaraderie and Tyler Durdene feels.

This last few setences. WOW. As a Jason Bourne fan, I can now be him.

>Systema Software said in a statement that initial reviews indicate Vickery was the only unauthorised user to have accessed the files.

Ashley Madison moment right here.

I take it that you aren't in the industry.

secure as hell too when you are just serving html files.

this has some pretty powerful applications for example for politics or mass dissemination of paper based digital files for the public to quickly consume.

Imagine, if students could start posting free textbook pdf files just by handing out a piece of paper which you could scan, or maybe with a phone one day, and instantly receive the file.

Why not QR code? QR code needs connectivity while this solution would just require you to get your hands on the paper.

I think we are witnessing an industry being phased out. Ads to power your free mobile app or websites? Ads that slowly overtime have become more aggressive, in your face because advertisers 'dont know why ppl wont click on my poker site ad'.

uBlock is such a sweet sweet slap in the face of such advertisers. I'd love to see small text ads that are relevant to my search or content. Giant banner with flash and won't disappear? Forget about it.

obviously to monitor and crush dissent

I was thinking about this just the other day and looking back at the past 20 years, the small but persistent efforts by Japanese government to provoke neighbors by claiming isles as their own or pissing off WW2 victims by saying they were prostitutes and not sex slaves employed by the Japanese Army, has finally paid off.

All those years pissing off many Koreans, Chinese, Taiwanese appears to have been a very carefully concocted foreign policy with the goal of aggravating action from a large military power to bring tension in the region and thus receiving the attention of the US. With the backdrop of China's unprecedented growth and military expansion, this turned out remarkly well for Japan.

I often look at outcomes of today for Japan and their past diplomacy in East Asia, specifically designed to create tension and worry America enough to let the dog from the leash.

but I find the timing of investing in self driving cars will be the end of Uber, it's a pivot, one that will ultimately benefit Google and Tesla type of established, tech giants with tons of data and hardware experience vs. a mobile app backed by a business that owns neither it's people or drivers.

The article talks about network effect but it is grossly miscalculated.

Steli is great, love all of his podcasts but I have to admit it's a little lacking in depth, the sort you would find when discussing larger sales requiring multiple stakeholders and decision makers.

What I'd love is if close.io took another direction and dove deeper instead of the cliche 'hustle hard'.

wish I could do this for the original Sony Playstation 1

this is my worst nightmare. free users are some of the most abusive and aggressive people that will without question overrun and destroy your product.

would love ot hear what you think drop me a line at my email if yo ufinish it.

what are some examples of 'complex hand-engineered systems'?

can someone give me some real world business need where I can apply RNN and this type of knowledge?

can someone give me some real world business need where I can apply RNN and this type of knowledge? Obviously not looking for a hand out but open to exploring problems in the enterprise or any other potential problems worth solving which has a market.

I find that having a goal of what I want to solve or create motivates me to learn. Whereas if I'm studying Statistics but don't have a clear goal that motivates me (calculating sports betting odds) then it's that much harder to master and appreciate it's applications.

I guess to me, knowing the application of something before I dive both feet into learning it is actually the most important truth for beginners.

As a kid, did you want to make video games and then ended up learning programming but ultimately not making video games? No 8 year old thinks I'm going to implement lxml in javascript one day they just think of something they like or curious about (ex. video games).

holy crap that website is like a gift from the gods

I've read SPIN selling and now reading Challenger Sales.

SPIN is much easier to read, know and understand while I found Challenger Sales a lot difficult to follow and put into practice.

Challenger Sale's major premise is the assumption that SPIN selling doesn't work anymore for some reason because of the 2008 recession. I'm not sure how true this assumption is but I'll leave this up for the real sales people.

I'm interested in hacking enterprise sales. ANother HN user's blog on the subject here is excellent as well: http://doanhdo.blogspot.ca/
