Not sure what is really the meaning. I work hard as I am sure we all do. I am reading this thread while chasing around my 4 kiddos. We all need a beak and we are lucky and grateful to be given those opportunities. I follow hacker news daily so I am just happy that someone who made this all happen to get a chance to relax and reflect. It's deserved.

And I find that when you really dig deep and go for the projects that you are truly passionate about you will participate with people who are your friends. Words are words but the founders of Y combinator are a small group. I would think they are friends. A personal opinion/thought

Congrats! It's amazing to live in an era of employers allowing friends to take a deep breath, reflect and come back to work with a renewed sense of themselves and their purpose. It is a great chance to reflect on what you have accomplished and what lies ahead.

My wife and I have 4 children, she has insisted that they start lessons at a young age, and now my 9 and 7 year olds are excellent swimmers, with a 2 year old that can make it to the side if he falls in. It is absolutely terrifying to see these videos, but it helps knowing that we are doing everything we can to keep them safe.

So I have to wonder.... why? If I was you I would put the link to https://github.com/andrewromanenco/pyjvm/blob/master/WHY.md front and center. That's great that it was done for academic purposes but I didn't understand that from the main page.

Worst case could you sell it for 1k. Then you lose 500. I say it's worth it.

I would love to know more about this book but it seems to not be released yet and there are no reviews. Not sure what the point of posting it is or why it is up voted. More details would be great.

I fully agree. We track millions of events per day and I use hive and hadoop to do my analysis. Not as user friendly but putting the data into a pivot table helps alot.

Re:Ask HN: Are you using Hive? What for?
on Wednesday June 29, 2011 @02:32PM (#2710615)
I/We are also using Hive to process compressed logs, manipulate them and create sub tables, that we can query on. We use Amazon EMR, and storing the data on s3. But mainly we use it for text processing via HQL.(Right or wrong it creates some structure around our data.)

They let me cancel the trip so there is no issue with LivingSocial having that as a part of their flow, but it would be nice to have a confirmation page between purchases over a certain amount.

Looks like it uses canvas to draw the qr. Using something like http://raphaeljs.com/ would have made it even better for backwards compatibility. Awesome job though!
