TH4 SYSTEMS - http://www.th4-systems.com

We develop tank farm management software and more.

We are looking for a versatile individual with a strong Java background. If you have any background in automation that would be a big plus (but it is no requirement).

Thanks for the suggestions. I've tried a few others, and have decided that KDE3.5 works quite well enough for most things, and I've gotten accustomed to the annoyances, so I'm good.

There was legitimate engineering discussion to be had about the unexpected success of the World Trade Center and Pentagon attacks. But when you strip away the politics, this story is merely "hated guy gets whacked", so what's to discuss for hackers or entrepreneurs? Flagged.
Atex, Stockholm, Sweden.

We're hiring people to R&D and professional services to our development office in Stockholm. You'd be working on our web CMS system that's used by a bunch of huge newspapers all around the world. Main programming language is Java, but there is a lot of javascript in the mix as well. Objective-C would also be a plus.

Need to speak swedish for the Stockholm positions. I think they are hiring in other parts of the world as well.

So, the choices for you were take him alive or just let him go?

Frankly, I don't know if you realize how that sound. You completely dismiss the fact that some people actually risked their lives to do this. This is not the scenario of a bad war movie we just sat back in our living room to watch and are now reviewing on imdb. This is reality, actual soldiers, with real guns and live ammunitions, no director, no camera.

What if you were the guy facing an armed Bin Laden, would it be so easy to reflect the way you do at the moment?
At this point, it is a bit sketchy and weird that all of Twitter's execs and board members continue to keep Noah's name out of the picture, especially with all of the press on the matter recently.

Most applicants are below average quality. This is because the good applicants get a job quickly while the bad ones go on to apply for many many more jobs.

Add in the increasing number of people with no passion for programming who studied it simply because they thought is was an easy well paying job, and you have people that apply for programming jobs that lack basic capabilities.

Ubuntu 11.04 (and in particularly Unity) made me realize that the best thing about free software is freedom of choice, so I installed Debian.
This is the first release. Consider it a glorified MVP.

It's not that this is the greatest idea ever! It's more like, given the constraints and the available options, this option has enough goodness to out-weigh the badness.

The grouping of multiple windows from the same application together is the only major problem I find with this setup, and even then it's not so major. It can probably be solved by providing a keyboard-shortcut to cycle current application windows.

Overall I like the launcher very much. In fact, it's my dream dock-clone: vertical, and integrated with the panel and window manager, and makes the windows-style task-list obsolete.

Understanding Ruby Blocks, Procs and Lambdas
Out of curiosity, what CS program is that? From the major majors you listed, it sounds as thought it might be where I'm headed next year, and I'd love to hear what a current student thinks of it.
The division in Pakistan is that the military is pro government (and vice verse, since this government came into power in a line of military coups) but that the ISI is anti. The army is more moderate, while the ISI is radical

The ISI overthrew the old government in Afghanistan by arming and training large groups of students from local pakistani madrasas. The student group after a few key wins in the south went on to be known as taleban (which is tajik for students)

These same factions within the ISI helped keep the Taleban in power, and assisted in aiding their escape back through Tora Bora and into Pakistan. I bet they tipped bin laden off to not staying in Wazrisistan and other tribal areas, since there was too much heat and the Pakistani military had some reach there.

I bet that the military in Pakistan knew a little (nothing about timing) but that the ISI were told nothing. The CIA have been in an active war with the ISI in Pakistan since 2001. There was the incident last year[1] where a CIA agent killed two ISI officers who were following him. I think that incident must be linked to bin laden tracking, since the agent - Raymond Davis, had been visiting the Pakistani countryside and taking photos of various compounds. When the ISI found out, they had him followed and intimidated him into leaving the country and minding their own business.

The CIA doesn't take shit and shot the other agents in their own country, then got Davies released by the Pakistani gov as part of a plea deal

I can't wait for the books and stories to come out about the last 2-3 years in Afghanistan and Pakistan - there is a real gap in public knowledge in terms of what has been happening there, and I bet some of the most interesting stories of the entire war on terrorism happen in that time.

The biggest problem always was that one of our key allies in the war had its own internal problems - and one side of our allie directly created and supported the very enemy we were fighting and continued to support them.

I don't doubt for a second that at least some elements of the ISI knew where bin laden was and protected him. The same thing happen in Serbia, with elements of the army and special police protecting Karadzic and Mladic, who is still at large.

Google maps: osama bin laden's hideout
for anyone interested, i wrote about how i dealt with the traffic here: http://jmtame.posterous.com/startups-open-sourced-is-out-go-...

the story was down for the first 20 minutes. i was trying to call siong to delete the story but he didn't have his phone on him, so i was pretty much stuck with fixing it on the spot.
The site can generate a lot of traffic to a submitted URL, so there is certainly a temptation to game getting a URL onto the front page.

I think that an informal oligarchy was established, certainly with respect to downvotes and flagging. The question is why is it breaking down. More troubling are the number of quality commenters who seem to have departed.

One hypothesis I have is that many on the leaderboard (and may of contributors I value who aren't on the leaderboard) don't seem to have any plans to apply to YC, they just want to take part in a community of hacker entrepreneurs. If more effort is not given to establishing a richer community model that is not managed as an adjunct to the accelerator they will probably continue to drift off.

Cool to see this posted here. Just for completeness: this article is part 2 of the one here: http://eli.thegreenplace.net/2007/11/24/the-context-sensitiv..., so if the issue interests you, start with that one.
If you ever read any books etc. on laying low the key rules are always not a big city, not not a small area either

small area means that you are noticed right away by the locals, since they spend their days waiting for something out of the ordinary to happen. big cities you have surveillance and large media. you need mid sized

besides, in the case of bin laden, there was far too much heat in the tribal areas with daily drone attacks and military incursions etc. for him to be hiding there. the big cities are full of CIA agents, so it was always going to be somewhere in between.
Agree, content creation is way ahead, but I wish there was an editor like Unity3D's to attach scripts to 3D objects that easy, but for flash, or I don't know of it
Actually, I think it's one of our great strokes of luck that the people who do this are largely insane and irrational, rather than careful, methodical, intelligent planners. For example, the shoe bomber, the underwear bomber, the guys who tried to drive a burning car through the too-narrow entrance of an airport, and so on. Most of these people are irrational, and that's incredibly lucky for us.

Its a cause, and they accept that they may have to face a violent end to achieve it.

Their grunts may be more normal, but the ones on top are quite committed. Plus, dying for the cause ensures that you are rewarded, so its a pretty hard system to beat.

When I first started using macs, I hated the group-by-application idea too, but I've come to prefer it. Combined with application-specific expose, I find it scales so much better for when I have over 10 windows open on a non-huge screen - which I do most of the time. When I go back to a WM with a list of lots of windows open, I find myself hunting and pecking amongst all these tiny, almost indistinguishable icons, and it feels like it takes forever.

edit: What I'd quite like is another expose mode which shows, say, the last 6 windows you've worked on. While I often have a lot of stuff i want to keep open, I often have a relatively smaller immediate working set.
i think that's the point
Looks like random list generation using PLT scheme. The long number is the actual list, printed without breaks.

If not, you can just treat it as borked LaTeX, because that is what it is.
You've got to be joking. This continues to show how Wikileaks uses the timing of its information for PR. They probably want more hacker sympathy for some soon to be revealed target.
Thanks for the great blog; always make sure to get to it first in my reader.
They built a list of 2 to the 100000th X's and then asked for its length. There's only a link for explanation of how, but I believe they represent a list as a DAG, so the repeated structure gets encoded compactly.

Osama Bin Laden and what he represented were wrong
for the world and now he's dead

Truly I don't know you and where you are from, but from where I'm standing: Osama bin Laden is now a martyr, he's now more relevant than ever (post 9-11) and true justice was not served.

One way to crush the free will of people, taking away their rights, is to make them fear an invisible enemy. My parents saw it happen in my country; my grandparents saw it too.

So dance on the streets if you want, but tomorrow you'll realize nothing changed for your well-being, and in fact the "terror" continues, because people allowed it to happen.

Why would you call them scumbags?

Granted, the buyers are disingenuous, if they truly have the cash and it would be better to phrase discount request differently, but in what world, CL prices are always fixed?

This short 20 bucks technique is a very basic,naive, yet effective negotiating tactic 101, which was taught in all the 70s,80s books on trading (and probably also goes back to Babylon).

If your ad specifically said $75firm then then it is their loss for not reading and trying to negotiate.

If however you didn't specify a firm price, then in person to person dealings a little haggling is expected. Not fair to call a person a scumbag then.

Most of the time you should be the one with the power since the buyers have to come to you and your loss of time is less than theirs, if the deal does not close.

Yes, I mentioned the Taliban simply because that's what I had read about. I don't know much about Al Qaeda, so I couldn't say much about that group in particular. I was not conflating the two groups; rather, I was using the Taliban as an example to make a broad point about Pakistan: that it is not simply "America's ally in the war on terror." It's also a quasi-ally of the Taliban (and Al Qaeda, Lashkar-e-Taiba, and other terrorist groups). "It's complicated," as they say.

The relationship between Al Qaeda and the Taliban is also complicated, and I'm probably in the dark as much as you are. My understanding is that they've never seen eye-to-eye, but apparently bin Laden was responsible for bringing the groups closer together. Al Qaeda has often resided in Taliban territory, with the latter's permission and protection.
i like natty...except for unity.

i'm sure unity is great on a smaller screen, but on a 2560x1440 panel having a window take over the entire desktop when one maximizes it is a deal-breaker. tried to turn off this setting via compizconfig and the old way of doing it through the appearance > windows > maximize vertically setting (which i really loved) but the narwhal disobeys me and impales me with its unpleasant horn unless i go back to classic mode with no effects.

after getting all excited about 11.04, downloading it, reloading, and then being disappointed, i'm now back on 10.10. not crazy about mint's layout either, nor am i a huge fan of gnome3. i guess if i were going to make a major change at this point, it would be to xmonad (which i currently play with once in a while) and not to unity. at least xmonad is fast and intelligent.
Does the parser really need to know this information? XX yy; only means one thing: declare( type: XX, variable: yy). Making that work is the job of something else down the pipeline that knows about the concept of types and symbol tables.

As an example, Emacs syntax-highlights both "YY xx" and "int xx" the same way.
JS was turned off. Thanks.
The truth is always worth being told.

I count this as a point against Wikileaks as an organization. Would you not agree they've engaged in a considerable amount of spin? At the very least don't you think that "Collateral Murder" was not simply a matter of "pure facts"?

A complete parser has to be strict. Emacs's syntax-highlighting, as we all know, is very heuristic and approximate. While it does a good job for the common cases, it's easy to break it with more freakish examples. A real compiler can't allow that.

To parse this correctly, the parser has to receive a "TYPE-NAME" token for XX and an "IDENTIFIER" token for yy. If the parser receives an IDENTIFIER token for XX, this will result in a parse error.
A compatriot is someone from his own country. Maybe the OP didn't mean to use the word with that meaning. Osaba bin Laden was born in Saudi Arabia. Suggesting there's nothing in favour of anyone born in Saudi Arabia is just plain wrong.
