under the tripartite pact , signed with japan and italy in september 1940 , germany was obliged to go to war only if the usa attacked japan , not if japan attacked the usa . but just before the outbreak of war the germans secretly agreed to support the japanese if they went to war with the usa for any reason , including a japanese attack on american territory . president roosevelt knew about this agreement from intercepted japanese diplomatic correspondence . as a result , when he asked congress for a declaration of war on 8 december roosevelt requested action only against japan . in view of isolationist sentiment in the united states , the white house deemed it advisable to let the germans make the first declaration of war , which hitler announced in the reichstag on 11 december . after this the president turned again to congress and received a unanimous declaration of war against germany and italy .

it is a myth to maintain that strategists of both nations considered pearl harbor too shallow , with an average depth of 45 feet , for an attack by torpedoes dropped from airplanes , which usually required about 75 feet of depth . while it seemed improbable , a hawaiian chief of naval operations memo states that no harbor is to be considered safe from attack . sabotage by japanese agents was considered to be the greater threat . the japanese had developed the technology , attack strategy and skill to successfully accomplish the impossible . the idea to attack pearl harbor had been conceived six months before . the american fleet was perceived as an obstacle to access the oil fields in java , so the plan was conceived to affect a surprise attack on pearl harbor to destroy america ` s pacific fleet . additional targets included warehouses , docks , airfields and aircraft .

the japanese plan involved two waves of attacking planes , separated by half an hour . nagumo , commander of the task force , was criticised for not rearming his returning aircraft and sending them back to finish off damaged american ships and oil storage tanks . but nagumo was obeying his instructions to make a swift getaway . the attack had always been a high - risk enterprise : the elite and well - trained japanese naval air force was limited in size , and higher losses could be expected if the americans located the task force . nagumo did not know where the three us navy carriers were , nor did he know how many american planes had survived the first attacks .
the operation was inspired by admiral yamamoto , commander - in - chief ( c - in - c ) of the combined fleet . the most important critic was an officer senior to yamamoto ; this was admiral nagano , the chief of the naval general staff . nagano had less confidence in air power and he was wary of risking so much of the fleet in a distant operation . he was especially reluctant to risk the entire carrier force so far from japan at a time when japan planned attacks thousands of miles away against malaya and the philippines . yamamoto demanded the use of all six big carriers , and had to threaten resignation to get a decision in his favour .
three more vessels ( the pennsylvania , maryland and tennessee ) suffered only minor damage . they were in dry - dock or moored inboard on battleship row . in any event , none of the six survivors was fast enough to operate with carrier task forces in later wartime operations . the pacific fleet’s three aircraft carriers were away at sea on 7 december , and none of the heavy cruisers were damaged . three modern carriers were available to the us navy in the atlantic , as well as two modern battleships and six older ones .

there’s no denying that ios apps are , on the whole , polished . this is due in large part to apple’s
, a document that “describes the guidelines and principles that help you design a superlative user interface and user experience for your ios app . ” there’s no ambiguity about what’s a good idea and what’s not : apple tells you straight up what’s a good idea . the polish and sophistication of ios apps is a benefit of the control that
wields , as the single purveyor , over ios . android apps , by comparison , often suffer from a lack of polish and sophistication in large part because there’s no single authority saying “here’s how you do it . ” add in the variety of hardware platforms running android , and android’s programmer - centric development mentality , and it’s little wonder that the state of android today is often compared to the state of linux from ten years ago : by geeks for geeks .
android is crushingly programmer heavy . in my opinion , they have not given enough consideration to asset creation or creative direction . with apple , the moment you start designing an app , you know how they want you to build it . their design plans are so complete that you can immediately access it . i often dream that my house is an iphone app ; it has become comfortable . with android , there is a false sense of freedom to do whatever you want . unfortunately , when you start taking all the various screen sizes and resolutions into account , it doesn’t realistically pan out that way . … as a disclaimer , i am a designer , and while my knowledge of programming has increased a fraction while creating a document , it should be known that android makes it difficult for anyone who is not a programming to decipher their rules . so with that in mind , understand that while my research has been abundant , this document should be considered a designer’s translation of android and therefore subject to error .
while it certainly is not my place to set a standard for google , in this document i intend to at least create a guideline for us to follow .
it almost sounds like it ' s too much fun to have been hatched by the military : find 10 giant , red balloons hidden somewhere in the u . s . and you could win $ 40k ?
but it ' s true . today the defense department ' s defense advanced research projects agency , or darpa ,
launched
10 eight - foot - wide red balloons in a nationwide high tech treasure hunt .
open to anyone in the country , the darpa network challenge is designed to explore social networks and internet communication . finding balloons will require players to build and motivate nationwide networks of people to join the hunt .
the balloons , which will be visible only during daylight hours , are
moored , 8 - foot , red , weather balloons at 10 fixed locations in the continental united states ,
darpa explains on its web site . the agency added that the balloons will visible and accessible from nearby roads .
the first person or team to send in the correct geographic coordinates for all ten balloons will pocket the $ 40 , 000 prize . only those who have registered can submit locations and receive the prize , but they are free to divide the money however they ' d like .
as of friday , at least 2 , 000 people had registered for the contest and darpa said the number continues to grow .
we ' re learning a lot about how social networks form – how people band together to solve problems . but relatively less is known about how those networks mobilize rapidly and what happens when trust relationships are crucial ,
said peter lee , director of darpa ' s transformational convergence technology office .
but now that the balloons are deployed , the real fun starts . teams across the country are fielding and sharing messages , trying to separate accurate information from false leads .
it ' s a race and money is involved . that injects a little twist . people now have an incentive to hold secrets ,
lee said , adding that as players recruit other participants and solicit information they have to gauge whether or not they are legitimate .
timed to coincide with the 40th anniversary of the launch of arpanet , the advanced research projects agency network , which eventually grew into the internet , lee said the contest was also intended to celebrate a crucial milestone in internet history .
on dec . 5 , 1969 , darpa succeeded in linking the first four nodes of the network that ultimately expanded to sustain millions of computers and modern - day social networks .
since darpa announced the project oct . 29 , lee said a number of inventive approaches have popped up – from using different kinds of economic and charitable incentives to relying on computer security or data - mining technology to harnessing plain , old fun .
jon cannell , a 39 - year - old small business owner in port charlotte , fla . , decided to join the contest early on . as an entrepreneur familiar with web development , he figured he had as good a shot as anyone and launched a web site , facebook page and twitter account to recruit members .
i was excited by a challenge and thought maybe i could leverage some of my skills and learn new skills as they related to social media ,
he said .
after making his imprint online , he published a press release and asked friends and family to send messages about his project far and wide . to entice people to collaborate , he announced that the prize money would be split evenly among the people who submit winning coordinates .
though his facebook page counts just 20 people among its members , he believes the actual network of those aware of his team could be much larger and could still come through with valuable information starting saturday .
i ' m not quite sure what to expect . it ' s basically a math problem – the more people in our network , the more the chance for success ,
he said .
if it wins , project red balloon , a balloon search team organized by graduate students and professors at harvard business school , promises to donate the $ 40k to aids research and awareness .
we wanted to test the ability of 2 , 000 students and faculty on the harvard business school campus in cambridge , massachusetts to dig into their e - mail , their facebook , and their twitter networks to mobilize toward a common goal ,
mba student bradley lautenbach said in an e - mail .
through any means possible , he said their team is trying to engage the entire hbs community of current students and alumni across the country . he estimates that they ' ve already reached 50 , 000 to 100 , 000 people in nearly every state in the continental u . s .
it ' s really a case of ' get out the eyes , '
he said .
we need as many people as possible , in as many places as possible , to be aware of what ' s happening on saturday .
hopefully , if someone sees a balloon they ' ll remember project red balloon and report its location to them . lautenbach said each person who submits a winning coordinate has the option to keep $ 1 , 000 , but they hope each participant will choose to donate the money to charity .
for some tech professionals , the challenge is an opportunity to hone their skills and get their name out .
people will be on the road , or on foot , when they spot the balloons , he said . it ' s easier for potential participants to submit information immediately via smart phone than wait to go home and sit at their laptops .
having successfully developed and launched dozens of iphone applications previously , he said his company was well - positioned to get
army of eyes
into the app store and into the public awareness . the application went live wednesday and so far has been downloaded about 8 , 000 times .
larry moss , a professional artist who creates balloon sculptures , said he knew he had to join the competition the day it was announced .
eighteen years ago he said he launched an online network for balloon artists in the internet ' s earlier days . that network – urltoken – is still thriving .
to celebrate the internet ' s contribution to social networks , he ' s mobilizing his own , asking its more than 2 , 000 members to be on the lookout for the red balloons and spread the word about his project .
if his team wins , he said he will use the prize money to create a 30 - foot - tall balloon cupcake , designed to fly with a pilot .
you can do all the math and whatever tactics to play the game but when it comes down to it , i think people will respond to having fun ,
he said .
he also said that since the network will grow from an already established community , false information and distrust will likely not be significant issues .
it ' s the birthday of the internet – let ' s celebrate ,
he said .
what better way than with balloons and a cupcake .

mm is a great place to work . all of the employees are smart , dedicated to their craft and checked their ego at the door . the work environment is casual yet everyone is working hard and encouraging others to do their best . there is a sense of gratitude in the office that is refreshing . of course unlimited snacks is always nice too . mm also encourages it ' s employees to stretch their abilities and pursue whatever it is that one is passionate about , allowing for career growth .
because of a temporary move , the employees will be split up in two different buildings while we wait for our new space to be built out . hopefully it will be worth the wait !
keep up the good work , stay focused on the fundamentals and maintain transparency with the employee population .
good people to work with . good pay and benefits . fun things to do at company events . good chance to use your skills if you get onto the right team .
too many big egos and folks who just want told how good they are . extreme resistance to change or improvements on team . hardly using my skills due to others taking control . recent massive layoffs .
look at the real problems at the company . look at how people are interacting on teams and how directors interact with the team , project manager , and customer to see what needs to be fixed to improve culture and delivery .
so many . . . - leadership ? a complete joke and has been for years . it ' s just a musical chairs of ineptitude and cronyism that has led to the company ' s atrophy . - no direction . this is akin to the leadership issues , but really there is no plan forward and really no identity . so much wasted time and money over the years trying to
figure it out
only to be led by the same bunch of clowns in some different configuration . - business development . there were some experienced sales people in here a year ago , but let them go and now just think that marketing ( with no real plan as to who or how to do it ) will somehow save the day . there is no miracle under armor account walking back through the door to save us , there needs to be an actual assessment of who and what we are and a message to tell that story . right now it ' s just vomit .
i guess you are already doing what you want to do , which is to slowly kill off the company and watch all of the talent leave so everything can be shipped to india for less . bravo !
can ' t keep a client more than 6 months because there is an over promise and underdeliver mentality ( mvp ) that disappoints the buyer almost without exception .
it got the second star because you would have had fun during the good times . but the outlook for the future is so bleak , it would be a mistake to talk up the pros – & nbsp ; they simply do not exist the way they once did .
they are in a temporary office space , indefinitely . outlook is , to be blunt but realistic , very bad . things have been downhill for years , and multiple rounds of layoffs have shattered confidence beyond repair .
speaking over several years , all advice has been either ignored or useless to this point , so apparently management needs to change entirely .
many brilliant people , flexible hours , opportunities to learn new things . some of the managers are awesome . reasonable holiday and pto policy .
over the last 4 years there have been 4 major rounds of layoffs . it’s practically an annual tradition . each time , tenured employees who were passionate , talented , and very smart were let go while executives and managers keep their jobs . office is currently interim and split over two co - work spaces with few amenities compared to previous space . plans of the permanent office move seem to be halted or stalled due to poor financial health , hence layoffs .
get it together , learn how to forecast , retain accounts and stop the surprise annual pizza and layoff parties .
super fun environment with lots of action going on . great place to learn . the people that work here make the company awesome .
too much office politics slows down projects , way too many project managers and too few designers and ux people to do the job .
