I've used Plone; I've looked a Drupal, Joomla, and Typo.

In my mind, these systems try to offer a complete GUI development interface. They're complex and difficult to learn.

Basically, I think there's a need for something far simpler.

The first step would be to write something that simply stores the main content portion of each page in a database, loading the correct content during the page building process.

So my page template might look like:

<html>
<head><!--stuff--></head>

<body>
<div id="header"><h1>Sitename</h1><h2><?=$pagetitle?></h2></div>
<div id="content"><?=$pagecontent?></div>
<div id="footer"><p>stuff</p></div>
</body>
</html>

There would be a backend interface to generate new pages and define the variables, like page title; a textbox to work with the page's HTML code... read/write this from/to database.

Complexity could grow from that - but that's the basic idea.

Are you aware of CMS that work from that point of view? Just the sheer simplicity of the system, in my mind, is different.

For example, you can work in HTML mode in Wordpress, but there's all the rest of it that goes with Wordpress that's not needed for a small site - it gets in the way.

It's pretty clear - i.e., his use of the term 'schema' - that he meant in-DB relations, rather than in-code relations.
I guess when you're talking "highest immigration" you're talking in absolute terms. Both Canada and Australia have significantly higher _rates_ of immigration.

I never understood why they didn't create Darwinia 2 and create more of the awesome gameplay that made them famous in the first place. The need to go on and do different things is what hurt them. I don't care to fight others, so Multiwinia didn't interest me at all. And DefCon... Cripes, they recreated a game that can't be 'won' from a movie 2 and a half decades old. Even Uplink was better than those 2.

And now they're working on 'their most ambitious project yet'... Do they ever learn?

Don't get me wrong. I'm hoping it's awesome. But in the meantime, they should produce some money off something they -know- is awesome. Darwinia+ was apparently supposed to do that, but re-releasing the same old thing on a console isn't quite the right approach. Releasing a sequel could have been.
I feel like there should be an award for that. I feel accomplished when I manage to get car dealerships to compete over me, much less CEOs worth scrillions of dollars.

This is the raging Ayn Rand view. Net neutrality is a valid concern for government since it's res publica: a common good that can only be achieved when every citizen have it. Individual citizens or even groups of citizens can not procure a net neutrality package when it's not available or affordable for other citizens.

I'm glad it worked! I was a little worried it would be inappropriate for the setting, but everyone seemed interested. I think the key is to bring it out to support the conversation, not as an opening line.

Realistically Firefox will play H.264 via Flash just the same as IE 6, 7, 8 and so will play any video on the net (including those in old Flash formats) till those 3 browsers collectively drop below 5% or so. By which time the conversation will be about H.26_5_ and a royalty-free successor to VP8.
I'm a ruby/php developer who works on a Macbook Pro 9 hours a day and I've learned to work w/o a mouse. Took a while to get used to, but now I keep my mouse in my desk drawer and only pull it out if someone borrows my computer.

First it starts with the setup. At work I have an external monitor and keyboard. I keep my MBP to the right so I can use the touch pad here and there when I can't use the keyboard for certain things.

Here are some tips/programs/plugins I use:

1) Vim (not macvim) and screen - This dynamic duo is the greatest invention. I recommend it to anyone who has the time to learn. Once you do, you'll never go back.

2) Vimperator - Firefox plugin - This one has changed my browsing experience for the better. Once you learn all the commands you'll be flying through pages.

3) Remap your CAPSLOCK key to ESC - Once you start using vim and vimperator, the esc key becomes more useful. I remapped my CASPLOCK key to ESC so its quicker to reach. I used the program called PCKeyboardHack.

4) Learn your keyboard shortcuts.

6) Try to replace programs you use often with console versions. For example I dont use any gui programs to access databases. Diffs/text search/file searches are all done through command line.

7) Spotlight - I don't use Dock, sometimes I forget its even there. I would disable it if I could.

8) pbcopy - command line program that you can use to copy to your gui clipboard. Try piping contents of a file to it. Becomes very handy.

Most of my day I spend using Vimperator and Terminal. So it's easier for me to not have to use a mouse.

Agreed. "Don't argue" seems like a really powerful negotiation technique if you've got the charisma/intensity to actually pull it off.
The main problem I see is that they have made it simple by removing stuff but leaving no room complexity and still making the look of it complex.

For instance the browser background is semi-transparent which means that yes the page will probably stand out more in some respect but at the same time they have no canvas to work with to make additions, allow for third party stuff. It will have to sit on top of that transparent canvas which will end up making it more complex.

The reason to normally use white, black or gray is to have a neutral background that almost everything fit's nicely into. Now any icon or button have to compete with whatever happens to be behind the semi-transparent canvas.

In many way's from the looks of this they are already maxed out on design debt.

Of course that might be reading too much into it from this screen shot as I don't know what their plans are. But my immediate reaction is it won't scale very well.

Opinions vs. Data
"Of course there are myriad reasons why its way of farming will not translate easily, notably that its success was achieved at a time when the climate was relatively stable whereas now uncertainty looms."

This seems like a pretty big caveat to me, especially when you look at how many civilizations have collapsed in the past due to exactly this very reason.
Another example of "hacker" being problematically ambiguous. I assumed this article was about MS getting sent a bunch of open-soruce/Linux source code, and maybe an insinuation of MS lifting parts of it.

Of course, it's open-source anyway, but still.

And does MS.com really get attacked 8000 times a second? Unless you're counting every individual attempt from each brute force script etc, that seems unreasonable even for them.

Well, a Method object and a Proc are two different things, but somewhat similar, so it still makes sense to discuss Proc behavior here. I would like it if this worked:

a = lambda { |x| x + 1 }
a(3) #=> 4

But since it doesn't, the alternatives are not too bad (though likely far too numerous for Python tastes)

a[3] #=> 4
a.(3) #=> 4 (on Ruby 1.9)

I think that Ruby's ability to call methods without () make for better readability in the case of writing domain specific interfaces, but come at a cost in other places. Personally I think it's a worthwhile tradeoff but I can see the other side of the argument.

Do you think so little of the vendors that you believe they won't want to fix an error in a widely-used security-critical OS component?

Do you think so little of the ability of the Mozilla team to communicate on the details on a matter of platform security?

When programming anything, you have to decide what components you're going to depend on, and what you're going to write and maintain yourself. On a codec, or C library, or whatever.

And if there are issues with the foundation, then applications will have issues. Other applications will have issues, too.

And if you're rolling your own code for common tasks, there will still be issues. You'll all of them, too. And you'll have a much larger project.
Your reasoning doesn't work if the language in question really doesn't have a word for 'left' or 'right'. Whether this is the case because they never though of it or because it was strongly stigmatized in the past and as a result these words came out of use and eventually were forgotten, the result is the same: Present day speakers truly have no possible way to say 'left' or 'right' without making up new words or describing it in some way.

"Deciding on a single codec that everyone should use for everything, forever (or until we get to have the same discussion again with HTML6) is the only way forward. Which is just stupid and ignorant."

Mozilla never dictated that there should _be only one codec_. It's my understanding that they are happy to support any coded, which is not encumbered by patents.

You're putting words into their mouth, which they never said in this form.
I was planning to work for a company in the USA via Faculty (Java & Database stuff), for 4 months - during the summer, and as I was reading, the applicant gets a J-1 visa (or it was J-2, I can't recall now), but I got another offer so I didn't go.

My point is, J-1 & J-2 are visas for students, teachers, business trainees, certain specialists, and more...
If YC wants you, maybe you're eligible for this kind of visa.
I don't disagree with anything you said, but most people need the "implement this data structure" project first so they can understand what they're doing. Then you can give them a more open-ended project.

I think there are two types of awesome coders.

The first type is extrovert and thinks of himself as an awesome coder. These people are known in the circle and are very few.

The second type is introvert and will not admit their awesomeness. As such, you generally don't know about this type until you've worked with them for a while.

> Perian (basically ffmpeg for Quicktime) being one of the must-have installs on Mac OS X in order to play any video/audio codecs and containers outside the blessed subset that Apple chooses to support.

Or just not using QuickTime Player, which was basically mandatory in previous versions as QuickTime Player rather sucked balls (QuickTime Player X is pretty big improvement over the Player 7 so it's a viable option)
Its not cleaner or simpler, its exactly the same. Stupid people just stare at the pretty picture thats all.

You need 2 search boxes, links bar and tabs and a title bar and a status line. Everything else better take up no room.

There is no possibility of the interface changing, period. Ever.
I am not sure if fear of being accused can be called a technical obstacle.
Thanks Arnór. This is very useful feedback because you are outside our test data point.

By the way, when you tried to change your location, did you try to type the location into the text box? Can I know what did you type so I can test on my end?
Thx, but i dont really care about my carma. I simply cant be wrong here because i experienced this myself and know like 10 friends doing such things with zero probs. Heck even YC says that visa isnt a big deal for their companies.

Guess most of downvotes coming from lazy hackers who like to count visa issues as excuse for their own laziness.

I have no idea what this does on first glance. The contrast between the font color and background is too low, so it's hard to read, and your screenshots are highly compressed so I can't read them either. If I was a random customer I'd click back before even bothering with the screencast.

Also, the name lowlydisparateventures doesn't really inspire confidence. Is that the name of the budgeting app or a different company?

Bottom line, you need to describe what this thing does in one easy-to-read sentence before expecting me to bother sitting through a 2-minute video.
He is wrong.

While ARM is a good target, there are many variations, with different feature-sets, added instructions and JVM acceleration that make for really different targets (much like x86 and amd64) that he would have to upload and test independently. And I am talking about ARM, which is only the dominant mobile platform (and that wasn't dominant a couple tears ago). One may also consider x86 (lpia, maybe) and their own endless SSE variations.

> Which is just stupid and ignorant. Different codecs are good for different use cases.

That's irrelevant, any codec(s) has to be implemented across the board or everything's broken. That's the point. There are basically 3 image formats at this point, but everybody supports them. If half the browsers only supported GIF and the other half only supported PNGs (and nobody supported JPEG at all), displaying image would be a chore.

And it's not like recompressing images is a big deal, that can be automated and takes a fraction of a second for most images. Compressing video on the other hand... takes hours and quite a bit of fiddling with a dozen of mind-numbingly boring compressor options to get the best bang for your buck.

> That's all that the end user really cares about, and that is easily accomplished by using the codec frameworks already present in most modern operating systems.

Yes, and now your cross-platform browser has widely different behaviors from one platform to the next, fantastic.
Stealth Mode = Miss the Boat Mode
However, because they have that stipulation, instead of having championing for the browser to use any and all OS codecs, they have declared that only Theora and WebM shoul be part of the standard.

Small world, I created a page referred to in the bug report :).

Yes, Chrome's memory management got better [1] and Firefox's got worse (at least relatively, they know about the problem and made some improvements [2], but meanwhile other browsers got even better).

It looks like while both Chrome and FF improved their garbage collectors, FF somehow got much higher memory consumption in the first place (growing memory in places where it really shouldn't - aforementioned array assignments or drawing into canvas).

[1] I remember a period where Chrome was tuning their memory management, you would get very different performance between subsequent Chrome updates.

Pointless, that'll still get them blamed.

You have a larger project but you control all the variables, or as many as you can anyway. And you can handle everything on your schedule, you don't have to depend on a third party which may or may not play ball with you (and may have absolutely no interest in playing ball).

Not to be snarky, but if we all knew the answer to that, we'd all be making a million dollars from home by now.

There's no easy way to make money fast. You need to come up with an idea that solves a problem, then work hard to implement it in an attractive and efficient way, then work even harder to market it. Then you'll actually be making money from home. Nobody is going to drop a million-dollar answer into your hands, because it's different for everybody.
1) It isn't exactly the same. The tab bar has been floated next to the URL bar, some of the icons have been shifted around, and overall, it seems to take up less space for the browser chrome to allow more space for the content.

2) Why do you need 2 search boxes?

3) Really? No possibility of the interface ever changing? I honestly figured Mozilla had it all figured out with Firefox 3.0 (or whichever version had the search box right next to the URL box,) until Chrome came along and had a multi-purpose URL box (that let you perform searches.) To make the statement that it will never, ever, ever change just seems brazen.
The problem with your hypothetical MBA is that he thinks he understands value because he's got numbers in a spreadsheet -- but unfortunately that data is incomplete.

I did the same thing (full keyboard access and Caps Lock=>Ctrl), so I don't have much to add.

For your question, I just noticed you can use Page Up/Down to go to the top/bottom of the menu.

Is there a way to select which functions keys should work as function keys and which one work as the Apple special keys (Exposé, volume control…)? The reason I ask is that I always found it inconvenient to use shortcuts like Ctrl+F2 because I have to move my hand much more to get to the fn key. But at the same time, Exposé is too useful to be left behind it.
It's the inconsistency that bothers me.

In Python, you can make anything callable by providing a __call__() method, and the parentheses will work as expected. This makes functions fungible with anything, including any object or anonymous function.

In Ruby, only methods are callable, and everything else must be called with the call() method, which means you can't use one in a place where the other might be expected. They're two concepts with the same verb--call--that require different syntax. It's inconsistent.
