I have acutally kicked this idea around 4 or 5 years ago of A "WSW" but more so in a sense that modularity would have been the groundworks for such a revolution.

Modularity. Modules, taking the scale of what cpus on the phones have to what the cpus in the late 90's till now had... interoperability... it is just not there yet. Infact it stagnated.

Re:The $30/hr Data Scientist on Sunday March 08, 2015 @03:12PM (#9166753)
Reminds me a job I had early on in life working under several intelligent people but unknowningly replacing 3.

Out of the 3 the 1st pushed me and encouraged me to move on when we debated who should stay, the 2nd was a surprise because I asked her why she was training me but sadly it was then I learned of her animosity toward me and her 30 years on payroll.

Which brings me to the last person I was replacing - the data scientist, the man that verfied my numbers and surely was verifying a lot of other things.

so having the guilt of the first two I happened to have a situation outside of my control land in my lap, I left the company immediately, positive they kept him onboard for atleast another 6 months to a year.

great experience nonetheless.

tldr: cost reduction hire, had to be vetted 1st - split before my conscience weighed too heavy.

confusion is the root of the problem, either remove the offending host and do it all in house or move yourself within the root of the problem and continue conducting business.

he could bounce off another provider/server so he can still maintain what he is doing now - he just has not explored any other solution except blaming. the arguement "it should just work" is not vaild if you are reliant on another service.

Once upon a time writers actually took the time to investigate their "tools", like flying to Hawaii and sitting down with a psychologist in a small cafe and going over the numbers if you must.

Not everyone is in a New York state of mind. Once you Once Upon a time it speaks to narrowness.

Re:Google seems to have broken email forwarding on Thursday March 05, 2015 @11:28AM (#9151723)
1: email is hosted offsite, yet reliant on Google/Gmail to do in house work/intermail.

2: when you are reliant on an external source to solve a problem within your own house you are not prepared.

3: solution: reduce reliance or point of failure by either bringing it all in house and forwarding the remains or bring root to the source and source from root and use mask and forwarding.

Ask HN: / freenode: Does Tech need a nudge?

I've been kicking around this idea since steve parted, but / we've often wondered how fast could technology could bankrupt corruption? With the ever impulses of youth it feels more sooner then later, maybe a nudge ? Does Tech need a nudge ? Yes,i feel it would be a self reciprocrating kick in the ass for society. Also, this/these statements should and never shall be contrived against or become...

It's been recently reported that China will not be able to side step tariffs anymore.

It's a great recruiting tool. Plus the possibilities of how it will scale for projects like robotics/fiber/wifi etc... who wouldnt want an inside track like that?

I have always been impressed with the level of ibm's documentation. Aside from the likes of ubuntu, arch, and my personal favorite: OpenBSD.
I wasn't speaking to that, it is of your interest as a parent to 'invest' into your child, be it time, knowledge etc... (honestly I never come here to read the articles, I touch the headline and gauge the article by its comments, so I 'maybe' offbase when declaring what I think.)

Regardless, you know as well as me - once you walk down that path no one knows it better then yourself.

Parenting is not about quid pro quo, improving his childrens livelihood is his investment.

Wait a damn minute here. The EPA came down and even tested the damn waters (*wells) in these areas. Methane had been coming out of the ground before these people were born and now they are saying something? Are these the very people that don't own the land that fracking is leased on?

In short: Entropy. Facebook, Microsoft, (admittingly have handed this information with ease), etc.... what we know is too much for you to handle so for your own protection and the protection drafted by a few is what now jurisdicts what we can and can not say. We (our govt / those granted amnesty ) can no longer divulge information.

What is key and what is troubling everyone since the jump is what 'they' are going to do with this information, and what 'they' have been doing.

For a lot of you it is easy hyphothesis what a person can do with this information, for instance it has made Mark a billioninaire and countless others rich. It would be a sad state to see this information fall into the wrong hand(s), so it is my hope that someone somewhere makes the decision that no one goverment should be privy to it for the true sake of this freedom we so vicariously fight for.
