He i think you are write but that is where the Language can help you. You don't have do the recursion every time by hand. You can have language constructs that are just as easy as normal loops but work like recursion in the compiler. If you really need to do the recursion you would have to do so in imperativ languages to.

I did not see a lot of execution while I was there.
I could not agree with you more here. And they are using InnoDB since it's Rails-based. Wrapping up all the INSERTs into a single query or transaction would really help.
I'd also say consolidating the validations into a single SELECT would help, but it seems they threw the validations out when moving to MongoDB.

And on the server level, Passenger isn't optimized for running a single site. I use Unicorn for my Rails app.
Doesn't a three bedroom apartment actually have four rooms, three of them bedrooms? In Berlin "Dreizimmerwohnung" means that there are three rooms, period. So maybe your calculation is off by one.
I believe "nuntios electronicos" translates to "electronic messenger" not "mail". Which is kind of cool though :)
When I worked at Yahoo in an operations role ("production engineering", Yahoo's equivalent of Google's SRE), my team did something similar, we used OCaml in combination with Perl for one task: developing an a mini-language language for describing large clusters of machines (ranges of machines, querying and describing metadata such memberships of machine in a cluster, designating special nodes, descriptions of clusters). Although we ended up switching to C and lex/yacc for this mini-language (due to compiler issues after the switch to 64-bit OS, no idea if these compiler issues were fixed) it was a great experience.

I've since moved on to a software engineering role, but there's something to be said about the freedom (e.g., picking your tools) that exists when you're writing software that only you are responsible for.

Iit's also unfortunate - I think a lot of Clojure's strengths come from its macro system. So what makes Clojure worth learning also makes it hard to learn Clojure :)

Platform, lol. The site was better before the platform enabled apps. The entire platform is faddish, it's popular because it's popular and everyone else is doing it; until they aren't, then you stop. There are billion dollar industries that are entirely based on fads, movies, music, games, or fashion for example. The amount of money has no bearing on whether something is faddish. For most, facebook is entertainment, the entertainment industry in all its forms is all about fads and popularity.
A little, but nothing like what people groan about the App store.

I'm the same about the "big 3" OSes. And it's good to remain picky. "The world only moves forward due to the unreasonable" and all that.

Let me restate the problem another way: there
are many more programmers who only know Java,
than programmers who only know [other
language X].

Is this little bit of personal opinion by any way confirmed by evidence?

I know many more programmers who only know php, actionscript, or perl than programmers who only know java.

I know you're not one of the cool kids around here if you don't build compilers in haskell, erlang or some dialect of lisp but this unsubstantiated anti-java sentiment is ridiculous.

I've programmed in a dozen+ languages (including scheme and python, which seem to be considered acceptable with the cool language crowd) and consider myself proficient with 4 of them (as in - I would have no problem starting a new project in those languages and will not often need to look up language docs) and for many uses I still prefer Java.

I suspect I am not the only one who shares that sentiment.
That'll be nice. Inspiring stuff!

It may be usable, but my point was: you can't call something "complete" when it doesn't implement its own spec. Imagine telling your boss "Look, I've released this thing three times now! I know it's just now doing 85-90% of what you asked, but still, what is your problem?!".
Yeah - he's the sort of thing on facebook that makes me hate facebook. That he can't even see that spamming people is wrong is what's astonishing about this article.

Voyager's goal was to use a number of gravitational maneuvers to sling itself to as many study objects as possible. It was not launched for interstellar travel, otherwise it could be possible to shoot it out a notch faster with the exact same technology.
I know this goes against what is said here but I hate awk. The syntax is so convoluted that it seems parts were picked with whatever was reasonable at the time. It's like I'm banging on rocks in a cave somewhere every time I have to work with bash, awk and related tools. In fact I did a quick bash script of pattern matching some files, moving them, resizing and compressing then uploading and it took three days to read man pages, parsing, etc till I got fed up, used ruby and had it done in under an hour.

IMHO, IMDB serves two major purposes - one as an archive for anything you may want to know about the movie, and second the rating ( which many people, including me, don't judge movies by)

Alternatives - One, Set up your own website/ Use Wikipedia . Second, use Rotten Tomatoes, or someone create a new and more open 'movie' database to help movies like 'The Tunnel'.
I find it hard to believe that the transition from IPv4 to IPv6 which has been anticipated for nearly two decades and is supported by all major hardware and software vendors (albeit with the issues mentioned in the article) will simply be discarded because software engineers will have to think a bit more carefully than just banning people based on IP (which is already a bad way to detect spammers since it is very common for many people to share the same IP if they are behind a NAT).

Furthermore, for location it would be no harder than IPv4 since location databases, just like routing rely on prefixing which doesn't go away with IPv6. Also because the IPv6 address space is so big, there are event proposals to allocate blocks of the address space to each country and then the country can further distribute its block among all the various cities/regions of the country which would greatly simplify determining location based on IP.
Interesting find. I could use this idea in Stylebot (http://stylebot.me). It's a Chrome extension that allows you to live edit a custom stylesheet for any page on the web.
I tend to agree with you. What strikes me about these cases is that the people readily jump on opportunities to earn income through honest work such as carving, transcribing and other things they are asked to do by the baiters. That they are eager to do quality work for pay does not indicate to me that they are scamming because they are bad people who don't like to work. It indicates they are scamming because it is the only source of income they have discovered. A pity too since their country is rich in resources, most of which are being ransacked by western companies for the benefit of europeans and americans.
I was thinking more of spectroscopic interferometry. We probably can't make laser strong enough now, but a 40 year round trip for a light probe to start feeding data is enough for one person to consider making it a lifetime endeavour.
Luthery.

I have started to make acoustic guitars (specifically, Selmer-Maccaferri copies; the type of guitar Django Reinhardt was famous for). I don't get a lot of free time with a relatively young child, but what little time I can squeeze into my workshop is very relaxing. After pushing bits around with your brain all day there is something immensely satisfying about making a real physical object with your hands. Luthery is also an excellent lesson in patience and long-term goals.
Thanks, well put, just what I meant.

This is still a useful metric, cultural reasons or not. Half of the world's population are women.
I seriously can't even begin to describe how awesome this is. Minecraft is what second life should've been, a complete virtual environment where people can manipulate things however they like.
one thing that can be done when the transition is made. we could make an initial switch of all IPv6-capable machines for a short initial period that would reveal all machines not capable, then switch back to IPv4 for enough time to get those now very aware of their problem. We could do that for several weekends prior to the real switch.

Such an approach would require a lot of software to be changed, to be sure. But it might be worth it.

It took Intel weeks to realize that they had a genuine PR disaster on their hands, and if it had taken them much longer to agree to replace any defective processor, the Pentium brand would have been ruined. They learned their lesson and wholeheartedly did everything they could to smooth things over, but only after a month and a half of making things much worse. By the time Intel started dealing with the situation intelligently, they were facing several lawsuits and even the mainstream media was making jokes at the expense of their flagship product.

Hmm,

The wood-carving thing actually makes me think they aren't "in business" in the conventional sense. Rather, they seem like desperately poor people grasping at whatever opportunity appears. I suspect that most of their efforts are utterly unsuccessful and it's more of a matter of doing it because they have nothing better to do.

> But, at an absolute minimum, being part of Valve will put more pressure on sales than there currently is.

Really? Do you know anything about Valve? If they had so much pressure on sales, why no ep3 yet? Why no new Counter Strike? Why no Half Life 3? Why a free Alien Swarm? Why Portal to start with (it was released as a pretty minor freebie of the Orange box, there were few things hinting at it getting such a cult following)? ...

Valve is Gabe's company, and as long as Gabe is there Valve's main focus will not be "pressure on sales" but "pressure on good games". They know sales come from that.

I wouldn't see Minecraft fit in Valve's universe and structure well, but I don't think it would change anything to Notch's control of his baby.
Sometimes languages don't match up perfectly. That same word is used for both a message and the person who carries it.

Yes, yes, yes.

0. Make the right kind of table.
create table user_apps (user_id integer, app_id integer, primary key (user_id, app_id)); -- this does the validation for you, and (should) index the table on both user_id and (user_id,app_id).

1. Make the right kind of insert statement!
insert into user_apps select 5, 6 union all select 5, 7 union all select 5, 8; -- etc

2. How do you do recommendations? That sounds like it'd be tough to do well, especially within a web request.

Lots of speculation on torrentfreak's part. I expect the reason for rejection is because Imdb want to keep the quality of their database high and have an approvals process for movies to appear on there - otherwise you'll get every amateur film maker wanting to submit their productions and they don't necessarily need to be on there.

Although in this case it looks to be a serious production, I think this is just the approvals process stopping this and I'm sure it will be get sorted out soon.

This is what's so bullshit about HN karma.

How you got a 13 karma for being all "ohh don't do that, please do argue your point" when your original point is so similar 19th century racism "research" is beyond me; it speaks to the hugely ignorant view of history, politics or economics that is present in some HN commenters

It would be interesting to see how large chunk of imdb's traffic comes from The Pirate Bay. Whenever a film is posted on TPB, the popularity score imdb keeps goes way up.
Your points are all valid but they are still knowingly engaged in crime. It's unlikely this guy carved the thing himself, rather he would have commissioned it from a local carver.

It's sad that they are poor, to me, still not an excuse to start stealing from people. There's a lot of poor people in the world that are still honest. I'd much rather see compassion shown towards them.

I can't believe people on HackerNews are upvoting that comment. Does it really add that much to the conversation?

In the time I've been here on HN I've come to this position. When I reply or submit, I like to consider a hypothetical someone in a year's time, mining HN comments for insight and information. I'd like to think that what I write has some use to the in context, and at the same time accurately reflects who I am now.

And yes, the reply fits in that mould. In a year's time if someone came across that comment, I'd like them to know that I thought it peurile and unfunny, and I flagged it.

Reading the comments here, I'm surprised to see so many people defending the 2-week-vacation policies in America, rather than trying to figure out ways to get 6-week-vacations implemented over here. Doesn't anybody think they'd be happier with more time off? Enough so to make it a priority?

I tend to take a lot of time off, and one thing I notice when I come back from a trip is how much more productive I feel. It's like there's all this pent-up brainpower waiting to get out, and none of whatever baggage was clogging it up before I left to get in the way.

I used to work 3 month contracts at this one shop, with 6 to 9 month breaks in the middle. I actually alienated some of the developers there because I'd show up and be 10X - 50X as productive as the next guy (measurable in things delivered), mainly because I was so stoked to be back writing code. I know that if I'd stayed there an entire year at a stretch, my throughput would have come down to a similar level as the rest of the team. But because of the way I worked, they'd get 3 months of fast, and then I'd be out the door.

I notice the same thing with my own projects when I'm travelling. If I dip out of internet coverage for a week or so and then get a day to run, it's amazing to see how much I get done in that day. I imagine that you could get similar results at a regular company by taking 3 or 4 short breaks over the course of the year.

Safety is probably the original reason for having building codes, however today the very significant majority of these rules (measured by both quantity and design time required for their impementation) has nothing to do with safety. Codes dictate building masses and building areas, building lines, requirements for parking, facade design, choise of materials, form of the roof, floor heights etc. etc. Some of those don't cause very much damage since they are useful and most architects would implement them anyways. As to the others...

The core argument in that article is that Twitter somehow competes with Facebook in a 'social network space'. Twitter is a very different beast to Facebook, with different use cases and user profiles.

Facebook is a great 'social tool' that helps people stay connected with real 'meat-space' friends. Twitter is for following celebrities and geek friends.

Twitter is no magic bullet to compete with Facebook.
At least at ATL, Airtran has pretty much all of C terminal. Mind you there are 30ish i think gates split 15 on each side so it's not THAT far to walk from train to one end of the terminal.

The choice of terminal is irrelevant because it just means a shorter or longer train ride from ticketing/baggage claim. Unless you're connecting with other airlines, you usually don't have much to worry about.
The class E block of IPv4 (240.0.0.0/4) has 268 million addresses available but no existing version of Windows will see/talk to them.

So just sue Microsoft to make a patch available since they obviously aren't going to fix that on their own and you bought IPv4 a few more years.
I close my eyes and play the piano, sometimes for hours (unknowingly).
One thing that doesn't make sense to me is that people are comparing the number of internet-connected devices to the size of the IPv4 address space, implying each device needs its own IPv4 address.

This is obviously not the case. NAT (Network Address Translation) techniques can hide thousands of devices behind one IP address. In fact, for security reasons, it's advisable to not have every device directly on the internet. I have an ADSL modem/router at home with NAT, which makes substandard firewall solutions as what is provided by Windows pretty much unnecessary.

So perhaps we simply need to reclaim large blocks (particularly those universities and companies that have large A blocks of ~16 million addresses) and save IP addresses for each machine for ISPs, servers and those that actually need them.

Of course that's hard to mandate but like many things you can solve it with market forces: charge people who have more than, say, 128 IP addresses on a scale such that the most economic thing to do is transition away from that and give up their addresses.
Great job, thanks for sharing!
