Awesome to see some Kalman filters! Takes me back to my undergrad :-)

Hi Ray, Thank you for reporting this. A fix is on its way out and should be live shortly.

The title of this is incredibly confusing - at first I thought it was about Zynga moving to Market Street.

Surely the could've said "up for sale". But the capitalised "M" on market was just trolling.

went to push, didn't work, tried the webpage, saw the outage, now I'm on HN

What the `zsh` working with `fuck` think of your comment on OSX:

git:(master) ok this is actually really annoying now

zsh: command not found: ok

git:(master) fuck

look this is actually really annoying now [enter/↑/↓/ctrl+c]

look: is: No such file or directory

git:(master) fuck

> No fucks given

That's kind of perfect.

Nice! And in this case the perfect is not the enemy of the good!

Thanks for the heads up! Looks like our cover photo assets need to be shrinked.

I don't really mind if "big water" is a thing, but I'd like to see better packaging for it. It's amazing how many people regularly drink bottled water instead of tap water.

We purchase from a locally purified water distributor and use large reusable containers.

Makes a big difference. When we got our plumbing replaced I might get a whole house filter as well.

Why do you need a whole house filter? They are expensive, reduce water flow, and don't work very well because they try not to reduce water flow.

They rarely make any sense.

Just water a water filter for drinking water, with an extra faucet in the sink.

How frequently would you need to change the whole house filter in your house?

I had to open a Comcast account after a roommate moved out. His checkout/my opening was very straightforward until the modem that worked for his account didn't work for mine. The "new system" that our account was directed through didn't accept the exact model for our modem, forcing us to get another one. And there is no way I would use their modem/router setup.

The worst recruiter I dealt with sent an email like this to 4 of my email addresses and tried to add me as a connection on LinkedIn twice (she had 2 profiles). All within 1 minute.

I usually contact the company directly to let them know when this happens. In all cases a hiring manager has thanked me because they were unaware of these tactics and were happy to get rid of this contract.

My worst experience was a recruiter who would send me an email every day and call me 5 minutes after sending it. Literally every day. Even though I never took her call she would try again the next day.

It went on for 2 full weeks before I lost it and finally replied to one of her emails with a simple "Stop calling/emailing me" and it stopped.

heh. And here I am feeling guilty when I will occasionally send a single follow up now and then.

I have my interns setup Vim on their first day, and it's usually their editor of choice by the end of the summer. Apparently it gives them mad credit among their peers at school too.
