Re:RethinkDB 2.0 is amazing
on Friday April 17, 2015 @03:35PM (#9396673)
Along with all of this, the team behind rethink DB is really very helpful. Team was always patient when I was new. They always helped. This is one the very few projects that I felt right at home. Rethink DB had(during the days I was trying to use IRC) atleast one core developer available on IRC every day from Monday to Friday. Congratulations team!

It is ironical, in asking me to speak for myself you are using the "royal" us.

I myself am an immigrant. I seriously don't see any need, because all the new immigrants will keep their eyes and ears open to see if their application is selected. All citizens/ existing immigrants, don't really care.

OK and why is this the top of HN? Because of the number of applications?
The number of applications is slightly higher than last year, but still I fail to understand why it is on the top, because this same thing was happening for the last 4+ years.
My application was picked up in the year 2013, so I have been following both HN and the USCIS at that time. Never saw it make top of HN.

I exercise everyweek day, I meditate twice a day everyday, I play atleast 4 chess 5 min games. I have been doing this over a year and I think I'm healthy.
I make it a point to sleep atleast 8 hours a day, and sleep for 7.30+ hours everyday.

Re:Another update on the Truecrypt audit
on Wednesday February 18, 2015 @05:38PM (#9071432)
Do you have any source to say Truecrypt becomes outdated? The last I checked, it was working just fine in Windows 8.
I don't think anything would be _drastically_ changing in Windows 11 and 12.

That's really bad for a country like USA. In India we atleast have access > 5 providers in big cities.

I liked the first two papers. Also when two years prior I did read the Shannon's paper. Must read for anyone looking for some Theoretical Mathematics.

I think there is more to it.
I don't believe this to be something new. My mom had been using this ( very very similar - the OS) from Nokia since 2009. Nokia released many such cellphones in India.

Thank you. I was looking for an API only yesterday, and didn't find any that is as good as this one. Even the Princeton University one didn't fit into my workflow, because it is overly complex.

If there is one story that changed me today, it's this. Kudos to you sir. With no internet/help you still pursued your passion and built this from Ground UP.
Thank you for the inspiration, and have a great career ahead.

I too, for one think that the headline really tries to make the problem look bad by linking it to Open Source.
Why does a/(b/c) = a(c/b)?

Concept is nice, landing page and the website are nice. What needs more work is the algorithm for determining hate. Almost all the comments that Hater News chewed out of my Reddit username were not at all* trolling. Indeed some statements were even contributing to the discussion.
Re:I Hope Twitter Goes Away

Lots of Negativity here again. Most of the commenter here are saying it is wrong when he says Twitter should die because it doesn't encourage good communication, and then blocks his own comments section. It just means he wants to have a meaningful communication.
He says, you can email him, or write your own blog post to refute or add on to what he says. That way you will be facilitating a great communication.

on Thursday October 30, 2014 @05:49PM (#8536023)
He says though, you can email him, write your own email blog, except that you don't comment on his blog.
Does that mean he doesn't want communication to happen?
