Title: Last week there was some controversy online about a company we
funded called InstallMonetizer. IM makes software that companies
can put in their Windows installers that offers other software to
the user as part of the install process.<p>It's unclear exactly how much of a right we as investors have to
tell the companies we fund what to do. But on the other hand we
don't like the idea that someone we funded might be doing something
illicit, so we felt like we should at least investigate the claims
and if there was a problem, try to convince IM to fix it.<p>Here's a list of things people said about IM or similar products,
and what we discovered about each:<p>1. They make "drive-by installers." A drive-by installer installs
software without the user's knowledge. This accusation is false.
Other companies in this business do such things, but IM doesn't.
Every IM install screen has a decline as well as an accept button,
and if the user declines, no software is installed.<p>2. The apps that get installed are "crapware." This one seems a
matter of opinion. A lot of the world's most popular apps and sites
seem like junk to us. But the users are choosing to install these
things.<p>3. IM "monitors and uploads user’s ongoing usage activity of the
bundled crapware." This fact is disclosed in the IM EULA (which
admittedly probably no one reads), but more importantly isn't used
for any money-making purpose. The usage info is (a) collected only
for the first 30 minutes and (b) is only used to prove to the
advertiser that the install is by a human and not a bot.<p>4. "This surprisingly includes not only IP but the globally unique
MAC addresses." This information also isn't used for marketing
purposes, only if advertisers request it to clear up discrepancies
in dowload figures. We asked IM to switch to uploading hashes of
the IP and MAC address instead, and they are going to start doing
that.<p>5. Comments on HN mentioned that a lot of companies in this business
wrap OSS in violation of the license terms. When we asked IM, they
scanned their publishers and found that 6% of them were doing this.
Those publishers have been banned from using IM, and all future
publishers will be thoroughly screened for ownership of their
software.<p>6. Comments on HN also pointed out that some apps installed by this
type of installer are excessively hard to uninstall-- e.g. because
when you try to uninstall them, they re-install themselves. This
again is something that while common practice in this industry, IM
won't do. They ban advertisers who do such things.

Title: Recently an ugly and short-sighted essay about teens posting on HN hit the frontpage and was later killed.<p>I'd like to take a moment to point out how important it is that we encourage young people who take the time and ego risk to share their work.<p>"I am [age] and I made [thing]"<p>actually means<p>"I am new at this. I know you guys aren't. I want you to check it out and give me encouragement and guidance."<p>Do they want attention? Of course! They believe, correctly, that the attention of more experienced people will lead to their growth. We should absolutely give it to them.<p>Getting young people into science and technology is the single greatest professional duty any technologist has. We need help. The problems are so many and the minds equipped for them so few.<p>We have an entire planet of dumb objects waiting to be woken up. We need software written and interfaces designed for classes of products we can't even imagine yet.<p>So we need kids to grow up and choose the very, very hard work of learning to bend technology to their will. We need them to believe they can make careers out of it.<p>And we certainly need them to believe that when they get there, they won't be surrounded by assholes.<p>When a kid shows up sharing their work, we ought to circle around them and hoist them on our shoulders. They're choosing the career that will make our lives better one day. They're choosing the career that will broaden our hiring pools one day. They're, blessedly, choosing tech over drugs, drink, violence and investment banking.<p>When a teenager comes shuffling along, awkwardly holding up his or her project for our scrutiny, take a moment and see if there's any experience of your own that you can offer to help them on their journey. If there isn't, move along quietly and let the mentors do their thing, eh?<p>Young folks: I don't know a lot, but if you want career advice or tech advice or just someone to talk to, I'm [email protected].

Title: Hello HN,
I am a UI designer/front-end developer, I worked for many high profile startups and fortune 500s, but for some reason in the past couple of months I lost my job, and all my side gigs.
To add to this I was working on couple of startups before the job I recently had, those startups made me lose every last penny I had saved up.
I don't have immediate family to help me out, grew up without my parents in boarding schools.
I really need someone's help here in finding a job ASAP so I can pay for a place to stay at.
I will give you a serious discount for the first month or 2 of working together.
If you are interested email me at [email protected]
and I will give you all my personal info and portfolio.<p>Thank you HN you are awesome!<p>Edit: I am located in Los Angeles

Title: I created this a year or so ago but recently made updates and I thought people might like to know that it exists.<p>I made this to easily send links or text to someone else verbally, like over the phone or over voice chat (which is what I made it for). The goal is to be able to tell the link to someone else without being ambiguous or needing to spell it out, so I grabbed the words off a Grade 5 level dictionary. I understand that the domain itself doesn’t qualify but I’m trying to get a better domain.

Title: I met this person when I was in high school. He made a huge mistake in his early twenties and has almost finished paying for it (bank robber). He gets out of prison next week. I've kept in touch with him through letters and have been telling him that his only chance of financial independence is through writing code.<p>He's very familiar with business logic, as he was the MS Access dba for the prison factory. And about six months ago I sent him a few conceptual programming books that you all suggested he read. He paid for his own master's degree (distance learning program in organizational dynamics), and even started a phd--though prison officials would not let him conduct the necessary research to complete it (and he ran out of money).<p>He's about 40, has no family, and virtually no friends (outside of prison). Army veteran, so he has health insurance covered. I think he has about $1000 saved. I'll be giving him a laptop, smartphone, and mobile hotspot. He won't be able to leave Indiana for a few years (terms of supervised release).<p>Would really appreciate everyone's thoughts and advice. I'll compile all of it and make a list for him. Thanks.

Title: Early 30's and experience debilitating regret on a daily basis, over not receiving the best education, not having excelled in any one field, not having any piqued interests as a child, missed opportunities, paths taken that cannot be reversed, and so much more. Many of those things were due to external factors, yet my mistakes still played a big part. Friends are in better places who I never saw as more hardworking or intelligent than I, but perhaps I've been deluded. Efforts taken at this point to turn things around would be futile, whether that means going back to school or picking up a new skill; I would be in competition with others who've been practicing their trade for many years. It feels as if it's too late. I am objectively in a place I am not happy with, but am convinced things cannot get any better. You may say that I'm not speaking rationally, but reality can validate every one of my worries and regrets. I don't think I am exaggerating or fabricating anything, rather I am reflecting on what has happened and observing patterns, or so I think I am.<p>Do any of you have any experience with this?

Title: Site: www.habbit.me<p>Some Background: 2 years ago, I was a non-technical college student. At the time, I was homeschooling my younger sister when we had some difficulties with her self-discipline and productivity.<p>The Problem I'm Trying to Solve: We tried quite a number of productivity apps but they never really worked out in the long run. They were great at efficiently tracking, reminding, or organizing things, but they never really dealt with the psychological problem of motivation and perseverance. Then again, they probably weren't meant to since most developers aren't exactly behavior psychologists and most psychologists share their expertise by writing books, not programs.<p>And that's how I ended up spending an entire year researching habits, learning to code, and learning to design in photoshop in my spare time. Then it took another year to actually build the app. I managed to take care of all the designs, illustrations, writing, coding, hosting, etc.<p>First Experimental Solution: And what came out is Habbit, where your main objective is to build your future ideal self (or selves -- you have a future self at every age). And you do that by mastering the habits needed to create that future self, whether it's exercising for future fitness, learning for future knowledge, etc. For more details, there's a walkthrough demo you can try.<p>Hope you guys can try it out and let me know what works and what doesn't. Ideally, I'd like to make it a useful complement to your arsenal of productivity or self-development tools.

But much of the time they are worse.<p>Sometimes the titles will be changed to the title the article originally had. This would be fine if the title was a good one. But often the original article title is not very descriptive, and the submitted title is better. In this case, changing the title to the original article title helps no one. It makes the submission look more vague, obscure, and generic.<p>If the title changing was actually improving the site, I'd be all for it.<p>But you guys are incompetent, and are making HN worse.

Title: I find myself striving for ideal and perfect solutions in parts of my work that might not matter much. Sometimes it's probably worth the time and detail, but admittedly, a lot of the time it isn't. It's just more fun and interesting to be "thorough."<p>This happens when working on something new and unfamiliar, often side projects. In the quest for a "perfect" solution, entire branches of mathematics or programming start to beckon me, and away I go... down a rabbit hole of Wikipedia articles, Stackoverflow questions, and Github projects. Even if I do find an adequate solution, it's not good enough until I can understand the class of problem and derive it for myself.<p>This also happens based on principle. When I encounter a problem that is actually <i>solvable</i> -- though it may not matter much, then I must conquer it entirely. As an example, for me it is unacceptable that something rated 5.0 with 1 review is ranked higher than a 4.9 with 10 reviews -- and I need to find the solution to this problem, even though it might only be a minor feature and won't matter if there are no reviews to begin with.<p>I call this "conditional" Rabbit Hole Syndrome. It also sounds an awful lot like the classic interview answer: "My biggest flaw is that I work too hard." Well it's true, damn it. These types of trivial things can easily become my "top idea" for days at time.<p>I am now able to admit it: <i>I spend time working on things that probably won't matter that much, and I enjoy it.</i> But how do I fix this? How do I learn to leave well enough alone? How do I learn the distinction between frivolous research and actually getting shit done?<p>A couple of edits: After more thought, this is really only an issue with work on my side projects. I also think it's due to lack of accountability -- I report to myself. As such, I tend to work on "most interesting first" and avoid schlep. So I'm wondering: how do you motivate yourself to schlep?

The standard routes are codeacademy, certain recommended books, types of projects to get started out on, etc. As recent as yesterday I saw a post on properly learning javascript. It was inspiring, but more so, it went in to such detail on a 6 week method one could follow.<p>Are the same sources out there to learn design? Books, apps, certain forums that designers look to (akin to stackoverflow)?

Title: Hi HN,<p>I'm admittedly not very good at this sort of thing, so please try to be
patient, kind, and considerate.<p>Last week, engineering lost one of its most significant giants. You may
not recognize his name, but at this moment, as you read this message on
an electronic device over a network, you are standing on his shoulders.<p>His name was Bob Davis.<p>Bob spent most of his life as an active contributor and organizer for
the IEEE. Whether it was the sticky politics of getting many competing
interests to work together or solving the many supposedly unsolvable
engineering challenges, Bob was truly amazing. The technology and
networks you use every day are due, in part, to Bob's efforts at the
IEEE. Bob is one of the people you ought to thank for the bottom most
layers of networking (OSI Layer 1 & 2). The list of Bob's achievements
is extensive, but more importantly, he truly understood the need for
collaboration and concensus.<p>Most all efforts are group efforts. If you take a step back from the
myth of the lone genius, you will see all the other people providing all
the required supporting contributions necessary for every supposedly
solitary success. Since there is no master list of all contributions and
contributors, no one can name all of the nameless people they ought to
thank. In this competitive world where a few receive fame and fortune,
try to remember the efforts of those few will always be trivial compared
to the combined contributions of the unnamed supporting masses.<p>To you, Bob is probably just one of the countless unnamed engineers who
made your life a little better through his efforts. To me, Bob was a
friend, an inspiration, and an all-round amazing person. I'll miss him.<p>Appreciation makes efforts more meaningful. It's too late for you to
thank Bob, but to turn a loss into a gain, I hope you'll look at
something you enjoy, find one of the unnamed people responsible for
creating it, and just tell them, thank you.

Title: Dear HNers
I have been reading HN for a while and I've never thought I would reach out to this community for this reason. Guess what, I want to save my relationship, and I'm sure you guys can help me. Here's the problem: my girlfriend can't find a job.<p>She is very smart (not only because I say she is, she is actually really smart) and has all qualities to be doing awesome work in a startup as a multi-hat talent. She has been a product manager in the valley for a couple years and has project management experience, well appreciated by customers. She is also perfectly trilingual and has a real gift for communication.<p>But, it's not that simple. She is not a US citizen. She needs a visa to work, and the more we try to understand why she doesn't get any traction after the usual first round of interviews, the more we are convinced that doors close automatically when HR people get to know that they will have to transfer her H1-B visa.<p>I have been trying to help her myself with my network of friends and acquaintances, but since I'm not particularly well connected, I wasn't able to help in promoting her search. So this is my best bet, probably the last one from my side before she has to abandon her job search and leave the SF Bay Area to return to her country, forgetting me, her nerdy boyfriend who thinks he's gonna "save" her by posting on hacker news. Anyways, I can't believe there are no companies around San Francisco who wouldn't benefit from a person like her to manage in an elegant fashion things related to product / project / customer / partner management.<p>Any piece or help or advice is appreciated. Thanks!<p>PS: If you guys feel like reaching out privately I have setup this gmail that I'll be monitoring: [email protected]

Title: Hacker News was down all last night. The problem was not due to
the new server. In fact the cause was embarrassingly stupid.<p>On a comment thread, a new user had posted some replies as siblings
instead of children. I posted a comment explaining how HN worked.
But then I decided to just fix it for him by doing some surgery in
the repl. Unfortunately I used the wrong id for one of the comments
and created a loop in the comment tree; I caused an item to be its
own grandchild. After which, when anyone tried to view the thread,
the server would try to generate an infinitely long page. The
story in question was on the frontpage, so this happened a lot.<p>For some reason I didn't check the comments after the surgery to
see if they were in the right place. I must have been distracted
by something. So I didn't notice anything was wrong till a bit
later when the server seemed to be swamped.<p>When I tailed the logs to see what was going on, the pattern looked
a lot like what happens when HN runs short of memory and starts
GCing too much. Whether it was that or something else, such problems
can usually be fixed by restarting HN. So that's what I did. But
first, since I had been writing code that day, I pushed the latest
version to the server. As long as I was going to have to restart
HN, I might as well get a fresh version.<p>After I restarted HN, the problem was still there. So I guessed
the problem must be due to something in the code I'd written that
day, and tried reverting to the previous version, and restarting the
server again. But the problem was still there. Then we (because
by this point I'd managed to get hold of Nick Sivo, YC's hacker in
residence) tried reverting to the version of HN that was on the old
server, and that didn't work either. We knew that code had worked
fine, so we figured the problem must be with the new server. So
we tried to switch back to the old server. I don't know if Nick
succeeded, because in the middle of this I gave up and went to bed.<p>When I woke up this morning, Rtm had HN running on the new server.
The bad thread was still there, but it had been pushed off the
frontpage by newer stuff. So HN as a whole wasn't dying, but there
were still signs something was amiss, e.g. that /threads?id=pg
didn't work, because of the comment I made on the thread with the
loop in it.<p>Eventually Rtm noticed that the problem seemed to be related to a
certain item id. When I looked at the item on disk I realized what
must have happened.<p>So I did some more surgery in the repl, this time more carefully,
and everything seems fine now.<p>Sorry about that.

Title: I just saw the story "Y Combinator-Backed Zenefits Gives Small Businesses A One-Stop Shop For Finding And Managing Employee Benefits" on Techcrunch, and was quickly reminded how difficult I found my short stint in that line of work to be (office side of managing employee benefits). YC is investing in such an incredibly large variety of startups, and getting into many different big industries. I can barely imagine the kind of work it must be to research everything so you can make good decisions<p>Between maintaining HN, being a VC who many founders look up to for advice, etc., doesn't it ever get a little too much? If yes, what do you do to keep your composure?

Title: It has been two days now since I have seen my bitcoins. This isn't because of a delayed confirmation, or someone hacked my account. My ledger displays perfectly that I should have bitcoins in my account. But I don't. I've tried to contact Coinbase by email and their twitter account and have received no response.<p>So here I am, knowing they are a ycombinator backed company, posting here, to find out what the heck is going on? I perused twitter to see if maybe other people are having this same problem.<p>Looks like I am not alone!<p>"@brian_armstrong @coinbase Still no response on my support request. I'm still missing 9.6 BTC. Can you tell me what's going on?"
https://twitter.com/thomrburg/status/303870208102248448<p>"@coinbase Day 3 of missing BTC. Imagine if your bank suddenly took your cash from your account."
https://twitter.com/aginanon/status/303653952162000897<p>"Balance says 0 when I should have around 80btc?! Heard @coinbase was having some issues but that they had been resolved.. whats the dealio?"
https://twitter.com/jacobparrish/status/303642200707854336<p>"@jacobparrish @coinbase I'm still having the same problem too! Really nerve-racking."
https://twitter.com/nsillik/status/303650076549591040<p>It is time to come clean. What happened to our money? Why haven't you responded to anyone in 48 hours about this?

Title: Giving the high demand for developers, I've seen more and more
companies who hire developers remotely. Constantly we see posts of
developers saying how awesome it is working remotely and how it has
worked great for them and their companies.<p>Analyzing the "Who's hiring thread" for the last 5 months, I found
that there are a "good" number of companies willing to do this, but
still is not that much and a lot of them say "Just in US"<p>October
Remote: 40 (16.1%), Total Posts: 248<p>November
Remote: 35 (15.8%), Total Posts: 221<p>December
Remote: 39 (17.0%), Total Posts: 230<p>January
Remote: 26 (13.5%), Total Posts: 193<p>February
Remote: 35 (19.4%), Total Posts: 180<p>Number of people re posting
4 times (1), 3 times (5), 2 times (23), 1 time (110)<p>I would like to hear, if your company hire remote developers, how has
it worked for you, how do you find those guys?<p>If your company doesn't, what are the main reasons for this? what would it take you to
consider a developer in other state or country?<p>I've seen startups that are fine hiring "consultancy shops" whose
developers are overseas but not hiring the developers directly, why is
that?<p>DISCLAIMER: I'm interesting in the subject mostly because I'm working
on a current solution to help companies and developers connect through
engager.io, we believe there is a giant market of good developers
outside the U.S, but unfortunately not all the companies want to hire
remotely or can sponsor H1B1 visas.

Title: I always like to keep tabs on the state of different competing frameworks. Any thoughts on the current state of Django vs. Rails? Especially with the upcoming Django 1.5 and Rails 4.<p>Some factors to consider beyond just the design of the frameworks: productivity, readability, documentation, activity of community, tooling, ease-of-use/learning, etc.<p>I've purposely left out node.js and its associated frameworks (Meteor, Derby, etc.) because AFAIK the field is still wide open and node.js has different use cases.

Title: I created a transit app for the TTC in Toronto.
(https://itunes.apple.com/ca/app/ttc-watch-for-toronto/id505286932?mt=8)<p>Yesterday, I received a package from Lemer & Company representing Dovden Investments, Ltd. The package claims that my app infriges their patents.<p>Patents:<p>http://brevets-patents.ic.gc.ca/opic-cipo/cpd/eng/patent/2283239/summary.html<p>http://brevets-patents.ic.gc.ca/opic-cipo/cpd/eng/patent/2363556/summary.html<p>I am reaching out to HN because I know there are many transit apps out there that have the same functionality: letting users know when the next bus will arrive using a third-party API (from NextBus, or GTFS Realtime for example).<p>So, if anyone has dealt with Dovden or has had a similar experience (or ArrivalStar in the US), please contact me at [email protected]<p>More details:
My apps use the API provided by NextBus who apparently licensed these patents. The patents describe a system that includes a vehicle unit (GPS) and a central server that processes GPS locations, neither of which are part of my app. They offered a "discounted" licensing fee, but my apps have generated income nowhere near the amount.<p>Please upvote for a better chance of finding other transit app developers.

Title: Everyone seems to be busy building MVPs in a weekend or in few months of time, and thats great as new technologies allow us to build much faster than even 10 years ago. But I want to know with that mentality and short time spans, what kind of stuff we avoid building simply because it would take years to make and has high opportunity costs for a single developer.<p>So as a hacker or an entrepreneur what product would you create if you have 5 years of time if you were sure you can not fail ?
to put differently, What are the tough problems you think we need to solve but you simply don't have that much time or resources to do it?
a new Mobile OS? file system? new language? what could it be?<p>EDIT: From the many comments, its interesting to note that some of the ideas are borderline science fiction! Amazing to know what a mere 5 year timescale allow human mind to think up.

Title: Hi HackerNews,<p>TL;DR - Business is dying. Desperately need your help.<p>Full disclosure: My name is Feldo and I am new to this site. A friend recommended I post here. Apologies if this is not allowed.<p>My business is on the verge of death, literally. We are a local Bay Area food startup that caters to startups, specifically Asian Fusion & Satays. Most of our business has been through two catering agencies but due to a mistake that was all my fault, we were recently dropped from 1 yesterday, which was the majority of our business. We were already negative before this. We can't survive much longer like this and being completely honest, this is dragging me near to tears. I've worked hard for years trying to get to where we are and pivoted this food business at least twice already in 3 years. We are only 3 guys.<p>Admittedly all of this is entirely my fault as I haven't tried as hard as I could in the past to do more guerrilla marketing, becoming complacent with our stream of clients through the agencies.<p>I am trying to correct course as soon as possible now and fix all of this. I've made many mistakes along the way and I own up to that. But at this point, I might not even have a business if we don't do something fast.<p>Our website: http://www.sataysfied.com/<p>Our Yelp page: http://www.yelp.com/biz/sataysfied-catering-san-mateo<p>Most of the customers that have tried us, loves our food. All of our past business were through these 2 catering agencies. Moving forward, I will try to build direct clientele with startups more and hustle, starting immediately.<p>I'm not asking for a hand out but I am pretty much begging, if you are in the Bay Area, and have a startup, work for one, or know people, I ask that you give us a chance to cater to you and/or help spread the word. We can use all the business we can get. We cater to startups of all sizes. If you have any feedback or anything, please leave a note.<p>All the best,<p>Feldo

Title: I got started programming a couple of years ago because I like problem solving. The harder, the better. I know I'm not alone in feeling that way. I've gotten a bachelor's degree and learned a bit of ruby, rails, and other frameworks/languages, but I'm running into a problem. It seems like all jobs are just simple CRUD apps. I look at 99 percent of the software out there and know that I could do it if I had the time.<p>My question is how do you get to work on the hard/fun stuff? A quintessential example for me would be self driving cars. It's challenging and would have a real impact on the world.<p>I'm looking into becoming a data scientist because it's newer and seems to have more challenges. I also have a theory that any challenging computer science problem requires a lot of math. Do you need a PhD to work on these hard problems? Can anyone give advice on how to avoid a career of working on simple CRUD apps? (CRUD is a metaphor for simple problems in this case)

Title: I'm a longtime lurker of these forums and after reading your stories for years I took the plunge and started a company to focus on making indie games. It's just me working my tail off and trying to create something original and fun. So far I’ve shipped two games and have a third one on the way.<p>The reality is I'm an engineer at heart and terrible at marketing. Just when I was starting to give up hope on my first game Adlib (http://spottedzebrasoftware.com/app/adlib) I found it was going to be featured in the Windows 8 app store! Now that it's happening I want to try to do everything I can to make hay while the sun is shining. I truly believe in this game and know from a previous version that its fans love it.<p>From those of you who have been down this road can you give me some tips on how I can best take advantage of this event? In particular, what advice do you have in order to reach new customers?<p>Thanks and looking forward to your feedback, Alex

Title: I'm @paulrouget. I'm part of the Firefox Developer Tools team (we are working on the builtin tools and Firebug). I believe that the HN community includes a lot of web developers and designers, so I guess you can help us.<p>We have recently added a bunch of new builtin tools in Firefox (please try Firefox Aurora or Firefox Nightly to see a recent version of these tools). We also redesigned the way we show these tools (screenshot here: http://paulrouget.com/e/toolboxTesting/).<p>We are now working on defining what should be our next moves, and I'm trying to gather as much feedback as possible.<p>The current plan is to build a bunch of performance-related tools (see https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!topic/mozilla.dev.developer-tools/L9vfZ1-smUI), improve the user interface (better theme), make the tools remotable (for mobile development), and drastically improve the WebConsole (see an experiment here: http://paulrouget.com/e/jsterm.v2/).<p>But we really want to get as much feedback as possible to make sure we're going into the right direction.<p>What do you think we should add/remove/fix in our tools? Anything you miss from Chrome or Opera? Or anything you haven't seen yet you'll like to see part of the browser?<p>PS: because a lot of people have raised concern about "cluttering" Firefox: we are considering providing some of these tools only as addons, to keep the Firefox DevTools as simple as possible.

Title: A couple of months ago I posted a request for help here on HN [1] which somehow ended up on the front page. At that time I fought with heavy depressions - it was really bad. I did not expect my request for help to land on the front page but it did and I got what I asked for. A ton of people sent me emails with very kind words and advice. Now I am in a position where I have to do two things:<p>1. Thanks to everyone who offered help of any kind. I do really appreciate it.
2. Sorry that I did not respond to everyone who wrote in. I found out that reading all those email made me even more depressed somehow. I will send everyone who wrote in a personal thank you note once I am better.<p>With some of you I had a longer chat and one person even sent a teddy bear from the USA to Germany (where I am from). I made a picture of the teddy bear [2].<p>As I mentioned I got a lot of advice - even though I was not able to respond to everyone who sent me an email (sorry again). In the meantime I saw another doctor, changed the medication, changed my lifestyle and now I am feeling a bit better. I would not say that my life is worth living right now but it became better and you guys certainly helped a lot.<p>I would love to give something back to you but I am not sure what that should be. During the last couple of weeks I thought long and hard about that and I really would love to do something: Found a help network for hackers, somehow improve the current situation for crisis/suicide chats or something like that. So what do you think would improve the current situation of (depressed/suicidal) hackers. Please let's discuss that. Not everyone will make it on the front page when help is needed - or am I wrong?<p>[1] My original request for help: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4928031

Title: Yesterday appeared a story about "bacterial fossils" in a meteorite (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5356483). It got 238 upvotes (still rising) and was #2 for 1 hour (still in the first page).<p>It would be a very interesting result IF it were confirmed to be true.<p>Most of the comments explain that the authors had a history of similar claims that were not confirmed, that the journal where it appears is not very credible and that the evidence is not unquestionable. These are very big red flags for a groundbreaking new like this. And many of the comments are written by well known members of this community.<p>From pg: (4 years ago): https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=429881<p><i>Sometimes. If the headline sounds preposterous, I sometimes check the comments to see if it has been locally debunked before clicking on the link to the article.</i><p>I still read the article to have my own opinion. But, please, before upvoting an interesting the article, read the comments to see if there is any possibility that it is true.

Some friends and I had trouble getting leads on who to "sell" our prototype to, and we had the thought that this may be an even more legitimate problem than the one we were previously trying to solve.<p>Is this a problem that other startups have faced, trying to find specific (with contact information) customers to talk to and become the first users?

Title: Almost none of the time my team and I spend writing code is spent focussed on solving "classical algorithmic problems" - search / sort / comparison etc. It is all writing clear logic.<p>Our efforts are all around writing unambiguous code which does what it says on the tin (and says on the tin what it does). Code which other programmers can easily work with and code which interacts defensively with the rest of the system and only affects that which its told to.<p>I'm interested in how representative that is. How many of you have programming jobs which are genuinely algorithmically driven?<p>What fraction of your time is spent on "classical algorithmic problems"?

Title: There are many stories on HN about great product launches that get money from tons of people on the first day. If we hear about slow launches, the store comes years later, after the product is a success. I'm writing this so that we'll have another perspective. I'm ten days into a slow, frustrating launch, but I am hopeful and excited.<p>Thirteen users have signedup for my hosted PhantomJS web service (BromBone.com). That's a lie. Four of those 13 accounts are test accounts I created. Why I am so excited about these nine accounts? I have nine people who have decided to take my service for a test drive! The great thing about that is that nine is only one less than ten. Ten doubled is 20. Find another 20 and I'm up 40. That's almost half way to 100, then 200, 300, and 400. Soon I'll have a 1000.<p>That may be a little optimistic. I've read so much about gathering interest before launch and talking to customers. But it din't go as smoothly as I would hope. Posts to mailing lists take me longer to craft than I would like. The discussion is positive and generates some traffic. But honestly it is a trickle compared to what I need. I posted twice to HN, but no one clicked the upvote button.<p>Why then am I so positive? I got two sigups overnight. And I hadn't done any new marketing the day before. My traffic is tiny. But every time I do a little piece of marketing, I see a spike. The spike goes away, but it leaves behind a residual traffic increase. Additionally, the nine users I have are actually playing around with the service. They're using something I crated! I think if I keep my efforts going, traffic and users will increase.<p>If anyone else out there is excited about getting just a handful of signups, you're not alone. I'm sure we won't all make it big, but I think there's reason to be excited. Just because my "launch" didn't bring in a flood of users doesn't mean that I can't grow the trickle into a stream, and then a river. Or maybe this is denial. Time will tell.

Title: I have been a dreamer all my life. It took me until last year to figure this out, and only thanks to this community. I hardly ever tried - and when I tried, I didn't persist. It has been my goal to start a business since ever I can remember. And yet I never really tried (until last year, which resulted in abysmal failure). Not even something small, like selling stuff online. I was always good at dreaming up new ideas. But never executed on any one of them.<p>Likewise, I have been programming on and off since the age of 17. Unfortunately, I started out with C++. As soon as I hit pointers, I made up my mind that programming was only for people smarter than me. Somehow, I did get back into it a few years later, but I never really became proficient at it. Again, I was good at learning the basics, reading code, messing around with code snippets on the command line. But I never built anything of value.<p>I don't have too much time left. My 20ies are gone. This is my chance to turn the boat around, and realize my goals. So, this is meant as much for the rest of the world as it is meant for myself. Usually, I would have just signed up with yet another anonymous name. Not this time. I want to keep myself honest. I need to break out of my own little word (unfortunately, besides being a loser, I'm also a loner).<p>HN, here I am. My name is Stefan Kueng, I'm 30 years old, based in Switzerland. For better or for worse. This is my last chance to get my life back on track. If anyone else reads this, wish me good luck.<p>[EDIT] Thanks for your all your responses! I really appreciate it. I admit that my post probably was a bit too much drama. Actually, I have been wanting to say what I said for a long time. But I restrained myself, because I didn't want to decrease the signal-to-noise ratio on HN. But this time I felt I just had to.
I'll probably not get to answer to everyone of you tonight. Just once again, a heartfelt thanks to you guys. HN really is a great community.
And yes, I will consider all your advise. But I'm definitely going ahead with my plan to start building stuff - and eventually to start a business. I have long ago made up my mind that I have only one life. I could go the safe route and work a regular 9-to-5 job, perhaps start a family, and lead a long and happy life. Or I could bet everything on something that's far less likely to succeed. Even if I fail and the resulting stress cuts a few years off my life span, it will have been worth it. I have been wanting to start my own business for too long. I just can't let go of it.

We just need more IPs :)<p>There's a pre-built VirtualBox image to run locally http://www.archiveteam.org/index.php?title=ArchiveTeam_Warrior or simple instructions for AWS spot instances https://gist.github.com/duggan/5226732<p>PS Join us in IRC irc://irc.efnet.org/warrior or http://chat.efnet.org:9090/?channels=%23warrior
