I don't have experience in this area, but from your description it sounds like something you could use a CRM (like Salesforce) for.

If you envision a vendor as what the CRM would typically refer to as a "lead", then you should be able to use the CRM to add info fields to the lead, track it through different phases (like due-diligence, etc), contact the lead using premade templates (like you suggested above), and resolve or delete the lead at the end. At the same time you'd be able to view all your leads (vendors) at once, search through them, search by field, etc.

Hope that helps.

Yikes that is sad. Hopefully things like open source and github will allow aging developers to show their value. If a business sidelines an employee based on their age then that's the company's loss right? And hopefully the employee can find a smarter employer.
As someone who's hosted and fixed a lot of CMS in recent years I'll say this: choose a solution that's fit for the individual purpose.

All CMS' suck, a bit like all OS' suck. As soon as you do anything non-standard their inherit flexibility becomes a burden. If you have skills in rails and need an off the shelf CMS find a popular one and use it you like but if you need to create a web 'application' look at Sinatra, rails or whatever but don't use a CMS as the foundation for an application.

Most of all, if my team and I have one take away: Stay far away from Drupal and people that preach its relevance. It is a world of hurt with an 'expert beginner' community. That has cost so many organisations more time and money than they ever anticipated.

Treat ever 'off he shelf' product with a degree of disposability - don't get locked in and never get into the trap that you've chosen 'the best'.

Asana - Easy for non-technical folks to grok, all the features I need for non-coding projects (like a marketing project for example)

Pivotal Tracker - More technical features specifically for software development, steeper learning curve, good bug tracking.

Slack - Good for office-wide communication. Easy to use for everbody.

Bugherd - Bug tracking system which integrates into the user-facing components of your web-app. Makes gathering feedback/bug-reports from the public very easy.

I would suggest you to have a look at http://www.gitxiv.com

Gitxiv is an online list combining research papers from arxiv and their implementations in github. So I would say its a great resource for what you are looking for.

Also, they run some kind of competitive implementation runs where you can collaborate with others to implement papers :

I am a JS dev as well interested in Deep Learning. I dont know your specific interest in this domain but I am happy to collaborate with you - if you are interested.

I'm upset about these revelations, and I'm not sure my next laptop would be a ThinkPad.

However, I'm still happy with ThinkPad hardware and I'll still consider them when I need a new laptop. They're the only vendor including a three-button trackpoint, which I enjoy using over a touchpad. They have a nice no-nonsense aesthetic. While the build quality has suffered over the years, they're still sturdy and reliable, more so than most competitors.

I'm also pretty sure they're not the only ones doing this kind of bullshit. They're just doing a poor enough job to get caught in the act.
My 6 year old used to watch lots of TV when he was 4. Now he watches Youtube, and the occasional thing on our FireTV box.

What should really terrify the TV networks is that not only have heve, and lots of his friends, ditched the classic TV channels, and certainly viewing it on TV, but they've largely ditched commercial TV shows:

My son, for example, prefers watching people roleplay scenarios in custom Minecraft worlds or G-Mod to high value commercial productions.

I'm sure TV in some form will survive (over the internet...), but there'll be a massacre where the traditional channels are reduced to niches, and on-demand becomes a battleground between high value studio productions on one end, and rapidly professionalised small independent "studios" ranging from one person with a webcam and up on the other.
the article does not mention this but publishing an app for iOS is drastically more costly in time and efforts than publishing for android.

It is the worst publishing process I have ever seen. sluggish certificates, keys, provisionning profiles, iOS lack of retro-compatibility, apple lack of communication on what the major versions are changing and apple lack of judgement when reviewing apps with guidelines that are changing every day.

Frankly I don't even understand how can developers enjoy working on developing apps for iOS it is lackluster in every part.
Don't the years start at one?
I think that criticism to the internet is unfair. With the internet, you get to control the content you browse while TV more or less makes the decision for you.
They would need to be compiled to a different architecture. Guess Apple doesn't want to write the code to compile the list to older 32-bit ARM.
I notice a very distinct difference there between my son and I. I will say "let's turn on the TV". He'll say "I want to watch X".

The concept of just switching on the TV and zapping is something that just does not exist for him.
Self-driving RV
The batteries have also another problem not mentioned in the article - you have to carry their weight for the entire duration of the flight, while with regular fuel you burn it up during the flight, making the aircraft lighter and more efficient. Not to mention, that many aircraft can't land with their tanks full - but electric aircraft will have to be able to land with the same weight they took off with.
3 Examples That Explain Copyright Policies for ELearning Developers
This is a great summary, and there look to be some really interesting things coming in Rails 5. Two thoughts:

1) I hope ActionCable is as seamless to integrate and works as well as Rails features ought to; you can, of course, achieve web sockets right now using Faye or various other implementations, but it's quite complex to get right (though the faye-rails gem is pretty handy) - and realtime functionality is becoming more and more important.

2) I wish they'd just give up on Turbolinks. Maybe some people are using it and love it, but it's always the first thing I turn off when I start a new Rails project, and I know quite a few people who feel the same. For those of us who never thought it was a good idea in the first place, I'm not sure any number of improvements are going to change our minds.

Isn't this what Functor does with `fmap`, not Monad?

Even if Monad did not exist and you only had Functor and Applicative, you'd be able to compose `pure` and `fmap` to get the same effect as bind, right?
I've worked with Drupal 6 years ago. I think it was awesome if all you need is a web site with custom workflows in the content creation. It made you suffer, however, if you started to turn the web site into an app for the public (anything more than custom filters for your lists and I think you are in this territory). The problem is a typical web site (even in those days) almost always turned into an app.

Like I said above, Haskell/ML's type systems don't even come close to verifying most interesting program properties. They can't even verify a monad, let alone the simplest sorting (or selection) algorithm. All those software verification tools most certainly can, and even much more interesting properties/algorithms than that.

Esterel can't verify a sorting algorithm (as it can't even express it), but it can verify most properties that interest developers of safety-critical control systems, including timing and memory use.

I think that's probably the point. Sometimes you want to just sit down, veg out, decompress, and just absorb. There doesn't seem to be a good way to get a near infinite stream of recent, reasonable quality content on the Internet yet, without having to do anything but switch it on, click a link, and adjust the volume. The "channels" that come close on the Internet just don't have enough content. After a few hours (or an hour or so a day over several days) you're watching the same things over again (and this happens on cable networks with less content as well). YouTube and Netflix both made big strides on this by automatically playing relevant content, but there is stil nothing that is the equivalent of a 24 hour news channel.
Indeed. "What I have learned from examining the site’s the source code is that Ashley Madison’s army of fembots appears to have been a sophisticated, deliberate, and lucrative fraud. The code tells the story of a company trying to weave the illusion that women on the site were plentiful and eager. Whatever the total number of real, active female Ashley Madison users is, the company was clearly on a desperate quest to design legions of fake women to interact with the men on the site."

Ashley Madison was still a sad, exploitative scam.
The problem with the F35 is that the entire concept rests on a symmetric battlefield as opposed to the asymmetric threats that have been de rigeur since the end of Gulf War I.

Yea, the inflation in the 70's really affected my adult life. I remember saving up for a toy, and going to the store and it went up in price. I didn't understand, but later in life I found myself buying stuff I might need just because it was a good price.

I got some money in the 90's and was going to buy a Harley. I was going to ride across the United States. I kept telling myself, the minute I really see inflation kicking in, I'll buy the bike. Well, I never bought the bike, but it wasen't because of inflation.

That's only if you were able to reinvest the interest.

>"No thank you. With regards to my government, I would like to see more privacy rather than less. This seems to give me less."

I'm of the complete opposite opinion, and am also completely against government due to my ideology.

Basically, while we have a government, I expect them to do their job and to employ any means necessary to do so. We currently task them with keeping us safe, to solving crimes when they do happen, and to enforce the laws we have supposedly all agreed on.

Obviously we have to keep government from doing bad things while in the service of the tasks assigned to it. E.g. unjustified violence of any form.

After reading the article, it turns out that the code is copied from earlier legislation for parliamentary elections, which use a somewhat complex voting method. I suppose the motivation was to allow a computer to functionally determine the result without needing to put up a dialog suggesting that somebody needs to toss a coin and click "heads" or "tails".
I could have started at -1, -2, or 5 to illustrate the point. It's the order of magnitude that is interesting, not the nitpicking of when we should start counting years.
I absolutely agree.

And I don't buy their justification for going down the app route in the first place: "But by the middle of 2011, six months after we launched in our app, more than half of installed web browsers were still not HTML5 compliant."

Who cares? The app only targets iOS, so as long as mobile Safari rendered it, they were fine. And most of us here know that the app would be a pretty thin wrapper round a webview.

I suspect the real reason for going down the app route is because back in 2011 all the marketing types were screaming "WE MUST HAVE AN APP!!!1!!"

News International made the same mistake with "The Daily", which (probably) cost them over $60M.

We have developed superconductivity. MRI scanners wouldn't work without it. The problem is that it needs to be cooled to very low temperatures, which requires complicated plumbing and expensive cryogenic gases. Not really something viable on an aircraft. Superconductors have been slowly improving in operating temperature though - perhaps the temperatures found at aircraft cruising altitude are within reach?

Presumably you think that the people running the study didn't think of this?

Here's a quote from a New York Times article about the project -

> In the second year of the tournament, Tetlock and collaborators skimmed off the top 2 percent of forecasters across experimental conditions, identifying 60 top performers and randomly assigning them into five teams of 12 each. These “super forecasters” also delivered a far-above-average performance in Year 2. Apparently, forecasting skill cannot only be taught, it can be replicated.

So the answer to the question "What is the probability any one member of the group correctly guesses the result of the next coin toss?" appears to be "reasonably high".

You're right that JS is pretty ill-suited for implementing production-level Deep Learning architectures that operate on a lot of data, I think it's still well suited for explaining the concepts in a clear way. A lot of the models have intuitive (and visual) interpretations, something that can be nicely visualized with JS.

As for Karpathy's implementation, you're right, he chose JS for that reason. His library is meant as a tool for experimenting and teaching, not to deploy these models in production.

What do you mean by lack of retro compatibility? You can still ship apps that target ios6, you have runtime checks for APIs that are missing in one version, the IDE suggests what is available or not.

The major versions (and minors) are thoroughly documented in API diffs, the IDE suggests what to modify according to your platform target.

The review guidelines are basically changing for the major versions, accordingly to the new tech introduced, and most of them are dictated by common sense.
If something goes awry the review team is available to discuss with you. Good luck getting an Android app reinstated if it is taken down.

The certificates are a pain in the ass, no way around that, but the rest of the platform makes up for this, the tools and language(s) are way easier to use.
Constant time C? Some instructions have data dependent execution times, even when no branches are used. Some memory operations have also data dependent timings.
