This seems to be the heart of TheLadders’ method of doing business: TheLadders itself is the source of inappropriate job applicants that waste a company’s time and money. Without consent of the employer, TheLadders takes its job descriptions, tags them with inaccurate salary ranges, and induces its subscribers to apply for those jobs.

Not bad.

Like airplanes, they would be safer than driving. But, each incident will receive so much more coverage that the statistical safety will be largely ignored by the terrified public.
Well, I'm biased... but my company offers a SasS math/science platform for middle and high school schools. We offer both instructor-led and individualized solutions.

Our students confront ambiguity, engage in real life problem-solving, overcome existing misconceptions, and (hopefully) appreciate the beauty of it all. We do this while covering the curriculum of several nations, and by using a well-supported pedagogical approach.

We actually have over nine million students around the world, but have only recently expanded to the US.

I've noticed that most-to-all of the current educational startups fail to offer a minimally viable product. Schools (and increasingly parents) will not consider products that are not properly aligned to standards. Products must additionally follow an evidence based-pedagogy. The large publishing houses sell exclusively on these two points, but completely fail at technological and educational innovation.

I read that comment as saying that people would get upset about the driverless cars and there would be bad PR for every accident, not that the driverless cars would actually be less safe. They won't be perfect, and every single failure will place the blame on the manufacturer, similar to the difference between public perception of airplane safety vs. car safety. Most people feel safer in cars, because they're in control. But people are safer in airplanes.

Honestly, I predict that people will hate the way driverless cars drive, as well. For many reasons, including liability, such cars will have to drive in a nicer (more defensive) way than most people do.

A driverless car won't tailgate and so it let people in, even if they're "cheating" in heavy traffic. Some people will absolutely hate that, even if it helps traffic flow better.

The threat there is simply that embedded firmwares are now much bigger and more capable (and more likely to have room for GC) than ever before.

Good thing for amazon.

don't know anyone who actually set up one-click on purpose.

i'm a fan of the subscription on the other hand. Even tough i fear they could use for timely price increments. e.g. 70% of the people that subscribe to product A choose to deliver on the first week of the month. than for that week that product price will jump 10%, since it's already 'sold' and then go back to being the cheaper amazon price.

Maybe i will patent this... just in case.

How does this affect SaaS billing companies such as Chargify, Spreedly, Recurly, et. al. since they're merely passing along information to a gateway? I assume not at all, if I understand what I am reading.

> That has nothing to do with TV. It has everything to do with your apparent lack of self control.

I do have self-control, at least regarding TV. That's why I don't watch it at all. (I do have a television, it is gathering dust in a cupboard.)

> If I spend 45 minutes watching TV or 45 minutes playing with myself, what's the difference?

It is quite easy -- and millions of people do it -- to spend an entire evening watching TV. I dunno about you, but I have never spent 5 hours non-stop masturbating :-). So the one activity is self-limiting, but the other isn't.
As an aside, I wonder how bad it is for the guard who has to ask him that question every five minutes. Probably drives him crazy too.
As a rule, never start a new line with an opening brace;
it belongs with the previous line.

I'm always using the "one true brace style", so that wouldn't be a problem for me personally; however I feel the pain for people using BSD style. Using a consistent indentation and brace style across all languages you're working with, be it C, Java, Javascript, Perl, PHP is a must, and that Go idiosyncrasy seems really wrong to me; this kind of detail may hamper Go acceptance quite a lot.
Credit and debit cards are issued by banks and banks are exempt from money transmission laws.

While I disagree with the premise that an OS must be written with a non-C language and then become popular for that language to replace C, I absolutely think writing an OS is a litmus test for any language.

It's entirely possible for another language, any language, to become more popular than C even if the OS hosting that language's runtime is itself written in C. Hell, according to some sources [1], Java's already there.

However, for a language to replace C, to truly uproot C, I absolutely agree it must be fast and flexible enough for one to write an OS that is comparable or superior to peer OSs written in C. As I've heard from some sources, C# and the .NET runtime may excellent examples of an environment that fell short – Longhorn reputedly was attempted in C# and MS had to fall back to C for performance and reliability reasons. [Edit: My info on Longhorn's bad, per neilc, below.]

They want companies that operate like banks, such as PayPal, to be licensed. I'm not sure I see the downside. PayPal has a shocking record of abusing it's customers, and it can only do so because it isn't bound by the same laws as banks are.

Personally, I think if you rely on PayPal/etc for your business, you're asking to get financially raped.
I have read both of them and I strongly prefer Griffiths to Corson. Lorraine and Corson are extremely rigorous but IMO their explanation of EM is upside down :-) They first explain special relativity and derive the EM equations using it. But historically, we had the EM equations first which forced Einstein to abandon Galilean transformations and discover special relativity.

But Lorraine and Corson just start out with special relativity, without really providing any impetus for why it is necessary, which can be found in the very first paragraph of Einstein's paper on relativity. Historically, physics has been a mystery that keeps unraveling with time. However LnC destroy the mystery by telling us who the murderer was in the opening chapter :-) We don't really appreciate how relativity was discovered. I think teaching the mystery is a very important and easily overlooked part of Physics education which Griffiths seems to appreciate but LnC don't.
Actually, BMI probably really does want others to be really inefficient at music distribution. They're basically meddling musical middlemen, so a more efficient means of distributing music threatens to cut them out of the picture entirely.

I think you nailed it. Consider they picked up Gosling for r&d I don't put championing their own future platform for all devices (you know Go is going to Android as part of the NDK or something by Android 4).

Isn't this what Sun basically did with Java? I don't know the incumbent they were trying to edge out or if it was just a "look at our cool tech" play.

Go seems like a C-esque version of python/ruby/java to me. A lot of very slick things in there. Lots of room to grow and a lot of community excitement.
Credit Card Transaction Processing Basics
If they wanted companies to be licensed they could just require a license. Instead they require a license and a bond worth millions of dollars in some cases, nominally to protect consumers. Yet if you have a million consumers in a state and a $1,000,000 bond, that means that if the company defaults, each consumer gets back a dollar.

This doesn't sound like consumer protection to me. It sounds like an artificial barrier to entry.

Also, PayPal has had licenses in all states that require them since its IPO, and clearly there's no connection between this issue and customer service.
Longhorn reputedly was attempted in C# and MS had to fall back to C for performance and reliability reasons.

That is not the case, as far as I know (see also http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Development_of_Windows_Vista).

Infibeam.com has a wide selection of induction cooker to choose from well known brands like Fabiano, Ideal & Pigeon with most affordable price and free shipping across India.
I would agree, but the price is steep for no reason other than apparently to keep new players out, and there isn't any indication that the license, if acquired by e.g. Paypal, would do anything to curtail Paypal's abuses (they are a shitty company I agree).
Ah, thank you for explaining that to me. I some how missed that from reading the link. Though, it was quite verbose and I am, admittedly, partially into a celebratory post-coding-session bottle of wine.

I agree. The system most definitely appears to be flawed.

Isn't Paypal forced to operate as a bank in Europe as opposed to the way they exist in the U.S.?
Well, there is a (flawed) line of reasoning that says that if you can come up with $1M then you must be more trustworthy than someone that can't.
Boohoo, cry PayPal a river.

In most countries outside the US, PayPal is regulated like a bank. This means PayPal can't just lay claim to your money and never give it back to you.

This is just a facet of a bigger issue: how come when you want a dynamically typed, scripting language you have plenty of choice but when you want an alternative to C/C++ (i. e. general purpose, compiled to actual machine code -- no VM, no GC), there is hardly anything (Fortran anyone?) If you add 'object-oriented,' you're pretty much left with C++ and, um, OCaml? Even when you want a functional programming language (still semi-esoteric in my book), you have more to choose from.
So is paypal going to shut down after this goes into effect?

Singularity is indeed fascinating, but it does remain a research OS. I hope something like it finally comes to light in a future release.

Really? Replace C? Really? http://golang.org/src/
New Web Service Makes Dialing Numbers A Thing Of the Past
To replace C, one must create a language which, first and foremost, can target shared libraries, because that's how most of systems software operates on virtually all current day's operating systems.

This is by far the #1 requirement: extensions to all VMs and scripting languages are shared libraries. Plugins for various servers are shared libraries, heck pretty much everything which is not a web app is a shared library, either on windows or linux.

In my life as a C++ developer (about 7 years) I have never, even once, worked on an executable. All my code, at all companies where I worked, always ran inside of either a DLL or a so-file loaded by some hosting process.

In fact, I believe that so-files must have been the default compilation target for both Go and D. So millions of Ruby/Perl/Python/Java/<anything goes> programmers could have used those languages for performance-critical or OS-dependent code in their programs, after all that's what "systems languages" are for.

so what if my company uses paypal to process payments and send payouts to users? do i have to care about this stuff or its just paypal's headache now?
Sorry guy, but you can't do that job really long enough. Every job has its disadvantages. I can already see some that you will find serious later on. Like when your weekend is Wednesday and Thursday, then you can't spend your weekends with your normal working wife and your school children. Also, when you drink beer on your desk and don't push yourself through unproductive times, you will never get anything done. And who pays the bills then?
Also children always have a hard time understanding that the father, always being home, has times where he is working - not available - and times where you can go and talk to him. I NEVER got that as a child. For the child that also doesn't feel like dad is home more often, but that he spends less time with them then he could.
I could tell you so much more annoying things, without even working as an Indie and just being 25 years old (so having not much life experience myself).

That is why I am quite disappointed that you write an analysis of your job without being able to weigh pros and cons. Please add an "against" part! Neither for yourself, nor for your readers it will be a valuable analysis otherwise.
I don't think they'll go anywhere.

I assume they can easily afford any cost involved. I wouldn't be surprised if they already have the licenses while existing as a non-bank.
Starting up is not a risk

There's stiff competition for the "worst patent ever", but surely one of the lowest must be when using a stick as a dog toy was patented in the USA. Don't believe me? Look here:

Animal Toy
http://www.google.com/patents?id=hhYJAAAAEBAJ

After being issued (and extensively mocked), it was finally reexamined by the director of the USPTO himself. Over the course of several years, they finally managed to invalidate all of its claims. Why? There were two other patents that covered that material already (one of which, mercifully, was only a design patent).

If you want some other crazy patents, I suggest looking at these:

Painting Using a Baby's Butt
http://www.google.com/patents?id=ErQFAAAAEBAJ

Forehead Support for Urinals
http://www.google.com/patents?vid=USPAT6681419

http://www.google.com/patents?vid=USPAT6960975

User-operated amusement apparatus for kicking the user's buttocks
http://www.google.com/patents?id=XYYHAAAAEBAJ

These other patents may be crazy and useless, but at least they were all novel.
Note that they state both cash and sweat equity of one million+.

Between five people and 1.5 years, a million dollars in sweat equity for developers is probably understated. They invest the time & skills (that they could have been using to freelance or consult for others) into their own company. Some people would consider this 'free' - but it's not free, the opportunity cost is still there. When you're closing shop without a gain, you are going to start looking back and counting all those lost opportunities in terms of dollars.
