I balance it more or less equally. Lunch is generally at the office cafeteria, so I won't count that. Weekend lunches are kitchen experiments, so think of it as lab work and don't count it either.

Breakfast is typically cereal, or toast and marmalade, but on weekends I might do scrambled eggs, or pancakes and if my girlfriend's around, we might do something like <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poha_%28rice%29>Poha</a...; or <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Upma>Upma</a>; or something else fancy, but it's always at home.

Dinner is where the trade-off happens. I'll cook at home one or two days and eat out three days. So what happens with the remaining two days of the week? Leftovers from the two days that I do cook.

When I eat out, I end up spending not less than $10 on a meal. If I cook at home, I spend maybe $10 for two and a half meals. Why the difference? From what I can tell, there are several reasons...

At home, I cook once and cover several meals. I have no wastage because I refrigerate leftovers and eat them the next day. I decide what I'm gonna cook before I buy the ingredients. Each dish a restaurant makes has to serve one person. They buy the ingredients in advance and hope to break even on what they use. More often than not, then end up with wastage that they must throw away. This is factored into the menu.

The restaurant also needs to pay rent for their premises, pay salaries and follow health guidelines. You could factor your house rent into your meals, in which case it should shoot each day's meal up by $30 or more. You could also choose to pay yourself whenever you cook, pushing it up another few dollars, and as far as the health code goes... you decide.

This is true for O(n) but not for o(n).
f(n) is the class of O(g(n)) of g(n) if g(n) dominates f(n) for sufficiently large n. o(g(n)) strictly dominates f(n), though, no matter how small n is.

Big O notation, or Landau notation, is not just O(g(n)). It's also o(), Ω(), ω() and Θ(). It's understood, though, that n is considered to usually be rather large - another name for this notation is, after all, "asymptotic notation." In any case that you're really worried about speed, you should probably be calculating the speed of your algorithm directly rather than using mere asymptotic generalizations.

Aside: I can't think of any algorithms with huge constants like you described; in theory, you're correct, but in practice, the asymptotic generalizations apply for n <= 1000 or even often 100.
As a college student, I spend about $20 for food per week. Rice, eggs, and beans are dirt-cheap and they keep me full. Not sure if they're nutritious enough, but I'm alive -- that's good enough for me.

Of course, walking into a bar and saying 'Just Google me' to some hot chick sounds interesting.

That sounds like a terrible pick up line.

I am currently a serious Vim user, but I was once an IntelliJ addict. I highly recommend it. It is orders of magnitudes better than Eclipse and NetBeans. If you do consider plunking down the cash for a license, force yourself to use the refactoring tools as much as possible. If you are primarily editing a single, strongly-typed language, then you can't go wrong with anything from JetBrains. IntelliJ IDEA, Resharper, etc. All brilliant.

On a bit of a tangent: If you are editing many different types of text (In my case: HTML/Templates, Sass/CSS, Javascript, Python, config files, a little bit of Java/Scala, etc.) then go completely IDE-free and learn Vim or Emacs. For me, the IDE vs Text Editor debate comes down to the question "Am I primarily editing one type of code in a single strongly typed language, or am I primarily edited text?"
We've used Netbeans and Eclipse for previous projects, but moved to IntelliJ last year.

The language integration is much richer - and it has a more solid foundation for working with multiple languages. For example, find usages and refactor-rename will work across different languages and templates. When I find usages for a field, for instance, it shows me where it is used in hibernate queries, EL expressions on pages, etc.

Languages can be arbitrarily nested in each other, a lot more so than other IDEs I've used - for instance, I can still use command completion and refactoring in nested SQL, HTML, CSS or even Javascript (eg. GWT's JSNI methods) when it is inside java strings, or XML documents, or wherever else.

The JavaScript support far exceeds either Eclipse or Netbeans. IntelliJ has fairly decent refactoring and completion for Javascript, which the other IDEs (at least as of last year) barely supported.

It has full completion, find usages, and jump-to-usage within JPA/Hibernate queries, which all ties straight back to the original entity classes.

The refactoring tools are a lot richer, and a lot faster than Eclipse or netbeans offered. On a largish project the refactoring commands still feel near-instant in IntelliJ -- it may not sound like such a big deal, but after becoming accustomed to it, I use the refactoring tools constantly while writing code. I didn't do it nearly as much with the other IDEs.

The refactoring commands are all extremely solid -- for instance, the extract method refactoring will detect similar code snippets and ask you if you want to replace them with the method call. I never had Eclipse or Netbeans ask me that (Have they changed in the newer versions?)

I've also found the support for Git far exceeds the other IDEs.

While the price seems expensive compared to the free competition, most programmers use their IDE 8 hours per day -- given programmer wages, it only takes a tiny improvement in productivity to pay for itself.
"Apple's attempt to draw RIM into Apple's self-made debacle is unacceptable. Apple's claims about RIM products appear to be deliberate attempts to distort the public's understanding of an antenna design issue and to deflect attention from Apple's difficult situation. RIM is a global leader in antenna design and has been successfully designing industry-leading wireless data products with efficient and effective radio performance for over 20 years. During that time, RIM has avoided designs like the one Apple used in the iPhone 4 and instead has used innovative designs which reduce the risk for dropped calls, especially in areas of lower coverage. One thing is for certain, RIM's customers don't need to use a case for their BlackBerry smartphone to maintain proper connectivity. Apple clearly made certain design decisions and it should take responsibility for these decisions rather than trying to draw RIM and others into a situation that relates specifically to Apple."

This isn't really fair to the site creator. The images you linked to are still hosted on their site and seem to be overloading their server without any benefit to them.

Maybe there was a reason they didn't want people viewing all 365 at a time?
The US is not the entire world - the iPhone is available for just about every major carrier around the world. In the US, they have AT&T, which has somewhere around 40-45% share of the market. The decision to not make an iPhone compatible with the rest of the US networks is a blip compared to the global market. Which means that the rise of Android has nearly nothing to do with the non-availability of the iPhone on Verizon, and nearly everything to do with the fact that Android is a strong competitor to the iPhone on capability/price.

Still, they'll pry my iPhone 4G out of my cold, dead hands... Android - fuh! :)
Why would anyone call when they've already read Steve's "you're holding it wrong" email and the official applecare policy of no free bumpers?

It's not meaningless? If "working" is dependent on several pieces working, and only some of them is under your control, you can be in a state of "not working" without being at fault.

I've had a server go down for a large group of users because of a malconfigured routing table between them and the server. If we'd had an expensive SLA, there would have been significant "what the heck is it we're paying for, then?" discontent.

I would phrase that question as "Am I editing one file, or a project of files?". As a Vim user, who previously only used IDEs for java projects, I now use IntelliJ for HTML/CSS/Javascript projects too. If you learn the refactoring and completion shortcuts, I believe it beats VIM at most multi-file projects.

If you install the Ruby plugin (also built by JetBrains, for their Ruby IDE) you get support for Sass - and they've just announced support for Less and Sass3 in the next version, including command completion and jump-to-declaration. http://blogs.jetbrains.com/ruby/2010/07/whats-mining-leaner-...

The Scala plugin doesn't seem too bad either, but I haven't used it extensively. It already has some simple refactoring features.

They're also working on a Python IDE, which is in beta, so the Python plugin will get fairly good too.
Cool idea. It's also refreshing that site doesn't require user creation, for obvious reasons.

(there's also the cost of refrigerating your own meals)

even with rent and salary overhead, it still surprises me that some buffet-oriented system (which eliminates the one-dish:one-person problem you described, and reduces staffing) hasn't made eating out vastly cheaper.

the only thing cooking at home seems to have going for it is that most people are not otherwise productive with their time in the evening anyway.

that and the "homemade" connotation - which i suppose translates to something real if you have a family, in terms of time spent together.
I won't argue with your viewpoint of the patent system, but at some level I can understand why the OP did this. India is not a good place to do business especially if you're a software company which is centered around being a hotbed for innovation. The legal system is so slow that nuclear fusion would have been invented by the time your case is resolved.

Down here it is common for people to copy your code by reverse engineering or some other method and use it blatantly in their products, because they know that you can't go after them. What a patent does is that it gives that aura of security. I think that the indian govt. is trying to setup a fast track court to deal with patent disputes in order to be globally competitive. So, people are less likely to mess with you if you have that bit over there.

In his point of view it is a defense tactic necessary for the survival of his company. It is doubtful that his company would survive beyond a point if it doesn't protect itself like this. I know this is wrong in so many ways, but try to explain this to the trolls.

Yes I fully agree. But sometimes you can't always use SSL/TLS (eg. for performance reasons within games). For certain requests you might want to add a hash for integrity protection and in that case absolutely use constant-time comparisons.
Building Your Personal Brand Online
It's also a poor solution! Getting people on your site is much more important than getting people to play your game, because some % of your visitors will return to check out what else you've done. If it's on other sites, they'll return to check out what else is on that site - not your games.

Ads pay out little but you can make decent money out of a site with traction. We don't even bother with ads on a lot of games at http://www.rocksolidarcade.com. The traffic is more important.
I wouldn't limit it to young programmers.
I've quit once for three full years doing nothing but physical work. Moving bits around on a disk is a great way to make money but to build something physical has a lot of satisfaction as well.
I can understand the desire to get a monopoly too, as I've pointed out. But I also fail to see how the situation is any different in the rest of the world. Don't let minor differences fool you. This is simply a case of a lack of innovation and therefore they have no edge over their competition.

This ridicules the whole concept of software patents. Where they should protect innovation they simply protect the lack thereof.
If it was the other way around, if they had such a great product that the competition had too much work to do, they wouldn't need a patent in the first place. This is how the rest of the world deals with the problem.

Now we know that having the best product is not a guarantee for success. And that's where that unethical edge-taking via patents comes into play.
Maybe Steve Jobs should've been worrying more about his own piece of crap products instead of whinning about flash like a little school girl.
You cannot meaningfully virtualize access to EFLAGS:IF. You can either emulate(/JIT) almost whole CPU or ignore this issue. And anyway, turning of interrupts is something that essentially does not make sense for user process, so it is better to just disallow that (which is what almost everything else but non-NT windows does)

Interview with Mark Zuckerberg... off of ritalin?
If you could go back to 1995 and show even the most open-minded EMI exec the state of business today, I'm not sure that his conclusion wouldn't be they they'd lost - completely.

The music industry has all but completely lost the power over distribution and discovery, and these were the areas that allowed them to pick up a kid off the street and make him a superstar and make people listen to him. When you make somebody a star, it's a bit harder for them to negotiate their salaries, than if you find someone already talented, with a following etc.

The head of the graph is roughly the same height, but it drops off much quicker and the tail is much fatter. Yes, they've more-or-less successfully transitioned to the new reality, but it's a much, much less lucrative reality.

No, he probably wouldn't. Look, I understand that this site has a lot of startups, but don't let the echo chamber go to your head. Funding startups is expensive-- we're talking hundreds of thousands of dollars minimum, I expect, for a startup that most likely will fail. That same hundreds of thousands of dollars can save the lives of thousands of people that are starving to death or dying of disease.
I tried apples test on my phone and no go.
I know that.

The problem is that you're assuming that everyone is playing a level headed game with you. I was born and raised in India. Even though I grew up elsewhere inside my head, I've seen stuff that is so far out that I really couldn't believe my eyes.

I've seen my father pile money into a black bag for his boss in order to bribe a certain famous politician. Why? Well, they wanted to win the bid for supplying security gear to a certain infrastructural branch. I snorted in disbelief and I was promptly rushed out of the room.

I've seen people copy and paste code for a living in a company. I've seen family businesses that are hardly above being a gray mafia. I've seen people burn their books every year to evade tax, and I've seen tax officials get richer and richer all the time.

Do you want me to continue?

It is true that such stuff happens every where, but over here it is taken as the birth right of a company to do so. As long as they have money in their pockets no one can touch them. This is where scare tactics come in.

Whether or not his company is innovative is a question that comes into play only when other people are competing in the same way. Trust me he has done something extremely bold down here, but the trolls have more money and less expenses. They don't need to hire people to develop stuff. They just copy whatever he makes and bribe the officials so that they can get away.

If a patent deters them even one bit and allows him to thrive then I think it is logical for him to do so. Right or wrong comes into the equation when certain basic parameters are met.

Personally, I can't live like this and the minute I get an opportunity I will pack my bags and leave. I want to spend my time creating beautiful things not fighting trolls in the name of running a "business". So, in a way I applaud him for standing his ground and fighting to make it down here. At the same time I condemn him, but can I really blame him?

When was it filed exactly? I first did this in 2007. And I have to say, I considered it obvious at the time (the difference is I show an ad for my site, rather than generic ads). Do you have a link to the filing?
Regarding TLDs, you're again intimating that I have said something that I have not said.

I do not dispute that some people are able to use DNSSEC and this does not belie my original comment.

What's wrong with C++ (from the point of view of someone that uses it daily)
I created a throwaway account to reply. I'm not even sure this topic is Hacker News but hopefully I can add some insight. I'm a regular contributor here.

Where to start? I'm male, around 30 years old, American, raised Christian, not active in the religion. I was fairly awkward with women and people in general when I was younger, but I put myself through lots of experiences, learned a lot, and eventually became much more social, though I'm still a natural introvert.

I'm seeing women in a few different places. I have one regular girlfriend where we meet during the high ovulating part of her cycle each month, which starts 14 days from the first day of her period. We have our first kid's names picked out. I have another two or three women that are very important to me. All know, though I go light on details to hopefully avoid jealousy.

Thinking about how to set up homes, schooling, and parenting is difficult. I study a lot to learn about it. I intend to support all my children and to grow my family slowly as I can afford to provide. I work a lot, and I try to work smart in addition to hard. I do a mix of work with steady pay and with upside.

All my closest friends know, roughly 3/4ths of them approve. My parents know, they don't approve at all. I'm not sure when I'd go public with this: Just like being gay 100 years ago, it'd break a lot of potential opportunities and meet lots of scorn and criticism by people. I have some professional acquaintances on here who probably won't recognize this. A couple close friends are here too and will likely recognize this is me.

If you have any questions, go ahead and I'll reply when I've got a break in a little bit. I've thought about this extensively over a great many years. Also, if anyone has any bad reactions, or criticisms, or warnings, or think this is bad, then I invite you to share those as well. Actually, it'd be helpful to me in gauging people's reactions, so all are welcome to ask or respond if they're curious.

Well, quite interesting.

However, these are not format (in the sens "file format") but more storage media, the title is not really right.

It's really sad that the picture are only "black shadow" representation (I was hoping that it'd be replaced by a true pict of the medium on :hover.

A few of these mediums are in fact not lost yet (DVD ? Memory Stick ? Smart Card ? CD ? Holographic Data Storage [this one can't be lost, it does not exist yet !!]).

Interesting data would have beginning/end date of manufacturing. And sorting the list would not have hurt.

Finally a few of the storage have way too many data available (18 track tape => no data at all, you kidding me right ? what's the point ?) and the dimensions and capacity does not always use the same units.

tl;dr: The idea is really interesting, but they should come back when they'll have something better to present. This article has really been botched.
