Google Chrome's Sandbox not your average
Carcasonne has a strange fortified city which looks medieval but was actually built in the mid 1800s. If you drive from there towards Andorra you come accross lots of old medieval villages with castles, such as this one in Foix:

Aachen in Germany should probably be on the list - it was once the centre of Charlemagne's empire, but today it has been eclipsed by nearby Cologne and Bonn. It was bombed pretty badly during the war but the town hall and cathedral survived intact.

I don't really see the point of identity. Why do I need a social security number to have a driver's license? Why don't they just photograph the person who shows up and passes the test? Why does my name need to be on my passport? (What difference does it make? If I am a threat to the free world, why am I not in prison?)

Good suggestion.

However, research the ones that are left before you spend a day travelling to one of them, as chances are it'll be pretty but very, very small (thinking of Doesburg and Bronkhorst, for example).

Economists are generally lagging indicators when it comes to the market. And they don't have a measuring stick, they have a basket full of them.

From BusinessWeek:

"Many people think the definition of a recession is two consecutive quarters of decline in the gross domestic product. But that's a misperception. [the NBER] will look beyond such simple metrics, weighing monthly GDP estimates, employment data, income, industrial production, and other factors. To call a recession, they'll look for clear signs of "a significant decline in economic activity spread across the economy, lasting more than a few months."

Any call, if it comes, is going to take a while. The NBER usually takes 6 to 18 months to decide when a recession starts or ends. Hall's committee didn't announce the end of the 2001 recession until a full 20 months after the fact...

Also, an increase in GDP does not necessarily mean "growth." The way that they have measured this has changed over the past decade, and I think their analysis techniques are biased.

Your thesis is wrong and your examples are bad. HTML isn't software. (Maybe you meant NCSA Mosaic, a proprietary program that was free for non-commercial use.) Apache came after several other web servers, e.g. Netscape's commercial one. Whether Perl is innovative is at least a subject for debate. For fairness compare best-of-breed open source projects to best-of breed commercial ones. Which is more innovative, Linux or NeXTSTEP? Perl or Smalltalk? The gap is huge.
This is not actually a problem, as everyone identified this risk during due dilligence when they were getting funded. Right?
The secret of Google's Chrome Logo
Don't forget Transylvania is a region, not a town. Nice medieval towns are: Sighisoara, Sibiu, Brasov. One could try the Medieval villages, even better preserved than towns, with their fortification perimeter walls, fortified churches (oh yes) etc. Really beautiful, out of this world places.

Full disclosure: I'm from Arad, right near the historic region of Transylvania, Romania. Quite biased, even after living for years in Spain and France.

Google loves to play with hidden messages in their logos. Hidden messages have a long tradition among hackers. No conspiracy theorie, just pure observation.
Google wants Chrome to become the new Windows, a platform for web-based applications. Google Docs is almost ready to replace Windows Office. From one monopoly to the next one. How the images are similar."
Waste generation
Sounds a tad too much like advertising to me. Altough Hank Williams definitely does not blogspam, this is too close for comfort.

The product and its ecosistem will definitely interess HN though.
When you build V8 from source, you can have it generate a snapshot of the memory state once the libraries are loaded and this gets packaged in the executable. It makes it slightly bigger but the load time is blazingly fast. Pretty sweet.

That's like the Smalltalk image! (A few years ago, a 10 megabyte VisualWorks image could load faster than the 768k Perl runtime.)
Hmmm, if one could write programs to manage these data shadows, then this would be a perfect startup opportunity...

How do you do lock in with a FOSS product?
I think you need to give credit where credit is due. Bill Gates is one of the geniuses of our time.

You don't create a powerful company like Microsoft just by being lucky. This is the guy who brought personal computing to the masses. This is the guy who managed to grow his company into the behemoth that it is today. This is the guy who responded to the Internet threat brilliantly (well initially that is.).

Dirty tricks are PARTS AND PARCEL of the world, especially in businesses. The techies are insulated from such behavior, which is why they are usually shocked at such behavior. People on the business side are used to such behavior. They deal with it. They counter back. Wall St revel in it. Govts use them all the time. This is society at its normal equilibrium. Google, being a techie wonderland, is trying to avoid this for as long as possible but trust me, WallSt will push their hands sooner or later.

Paul Allen wouldn't have build Microsoft into the success that it is today. He just isn't as sly as Bill is.

There are a few caveats, but the security provided by sandboxing may make a thin client that only contains Chrome a superior place to deploy applications dealing with sensitive information. (And deploying Chrome on a managed thin client would remove most of those caveats, like security holes introduced by anti-malware programs.)
Powerbar Ride is really nice, if you don't like regular Powerbars give them a go. Mule bars are also good.
If you're in the area, there are some great exhibits at the German History Museum in Berlin, including exact (scaled down) replicas of medieval cities, with information about different areas of town. Very different than walking around town, but it is interesting to see what a medieval city looked like from the top.

Otherwise, I can vouch for Bruges, Siena, and Regensburg.
In Italy, the thing a lot of riders do is to take along a few packets of jam, like they give you in restaurants, with the little peel-off tops. That works pretty well and is a lot cheaper than expensive sports bars.
Does anyone think it's really b)? That's just paranoia.

I'm surprised google's teflon still hasn't worn off. Obviously, it was on purpose. Chrome is a strategic product.
You find it annoying that other people prefer a certain technology?
Problem is that many of the positive indicators are also present in bad programmers.

My experience is that it is extremely hard to recognize good programmers from bad programmers on the basis of personality traits.

The only think that seems to work is to actually investigate how well they read and write code.
Without some form of identity, you can claim that the other guy who blew up the airplane wasn't you. Likewise, what's to keep the state from bringing you to trial for the same crime N times? Without identity, how does Habeas Corpus work? In fact, how does most of the legal system work?

Your proposal is that the photograph constitute identity. This isn't valid anymore. It wasn't even valid in the pre Photoshop days.

That's it? That's the difference between Rails and Django - if it were Rails reaching 1.0, there would be a huge party and screencasts everywhere and a demo showing how to write windows 95 in 10 minutes.

Django just released and that's all.

On the one hand I'm happy because over hyped products tend to be constantly flooded by new users. On the other hand, if a project is too quiet, it tends to lose users to more sexy technologies, and sooner or later, nobody is using it.

I don't want it to turn out that I put my bets on the betamax of the the frameworks.
If a license photo or an ideal passport uniquely identifies the bearer, you're not really proposing any change. If it doesn't, what does a license/passport mean? Someone, somewhere, filled out a form?
Scribd... [is] not affected by this news.

If this is so, then Scribd's PR person really needs to write TechCrunch every fifteen minutes until the site puts up a bigger correction. Just marking up the word "Scribd" in the story with a strikethru is nowhere near enough. A lot of readers might miss that detail. Others, like me, will see it but have no idea why it's there. And even if you recognize that they've been crossed out, just mentioning Scribd in this context is to associate them with something bad. As it stands, the article is the textual equivalent of a politician saying "Many public figures have fatal illnesses, but I would never accuse my opponent of having Lou Gehrig's Disease."

The fact that the word "Scribd" even appeared in that story calls for the removal of their name from the main story and the addition of a full blown, fall-on-our-sword, "We screwed up and didn't check our facts; Scribd has nothing to do with this story; we regret the error" apology at the end. This is nothing to be sly about.
If you extrapolate from David S. Rose's numbers Angelsoft pulls in something like ten to thirty thousand dollars per day. Amazingly, the fee you pay won't guarantee a meeting with anybody.

No one who has the clout to get a deal out of this system needs to use it in the first place. If your company is good enough to get a deal under these conditions you could cold call just about any investor and receive funding. Angelsoft makes all of its money off entrepreneurs who they know have no chance of getting funding. What David S. Rose does should be illegal.

Here's how it works: 100 people walk in the door with $150, thinking they're going to get money for their business. David takes the $150 from 88 of them and immediately ushers them to the exit. The remaining 12 are invited to present in front of someone. But oh, their businesses just aren't right. So 11 more people fork over their $150 and leave. The remaining person (still forking over his $150), then forks over a substantial piece of his company at a low valuation. The only reason this ridiculous scheme works is because people believe they are going to get something back. They aren't. This is known as a "confidence scam."

Well, no. Certainly not "always". You're absolutely right about the big risk, but sometimes the reward is worth the risk. Selling Photoshop plugins means being dependent on Adobe's decisions, but that doesn't mean you should go into business selling Gimp plugins instead.

What you have to do is keep the risk firmly in mind, and hedge it. Pay your insurance premiums.

"The most interesting part is a new implementation for the JavaScript Engine called "V8" done by members of the orginal Animorphic team. Animorphic Smalltalk was a Smalltalk system built around the mid-90s as part of a startup that was informally known as Animorphic Systems. In early 1997, Animorphic was acquired by Sun, and much of the underlying VM technology was put to real use in the Java Hotspot VM."

"In the long run, we're all dead." -John Maynard Keynes

So first Adam claims they were pressured into dropping the segment.

Then bad publicity ensues and what do you know: Adam now claims he had a brain fart and all the big corporations say there just giddy over the Mythbusters segment. They were bending over backwards to help!

Shucks, what a silly misunderstanding!
I seriously doubt it. Lawyers can issue scary legal threats in their sleep. It's like yawning to them.

Threatening Mythbusters is probably a matter of 15 billable minutes of legal time. Whereas building a secure RFID is hundreds or thousands of engineering hours.

Here's something that just occurred to me: One reason why actual security is more expensive than lawyers is that your security team is up against black-hat hackers who are willing to spend hundreds of hours working -- anonymously, in secret, and without pay -- to defeat you. Whereas your legal team is generally not opposed by a black-hat legal team that is willing to spend hundreds of pro bono legal hours to try to defeat you in court. Particularly because you can't challenge a legal threat while simultaneously remaining anonymous and working in secret.
Reminds me of Shawshank Redemption. If he can create a whole new identity for himself from prison using mail I don't see why we can't using our freedom.
I may not be as pessimistic about the idea of Angelsoft, but I won't use it for my start-up. There is some value to those new to raising capital. It does seem like they take advantage of the inexperienced in some respect (is the middle man neccessary?).

It will act as a good directory of local Angels which, for me, was hard to find in Toronto.

Work credentials. If I know of graduates of a prestigious institution and can get a license in their name, I could easily get jobs I didn't earn and cause companies to loose money by paying me for a position I'm not qualified for.

Delinquency history. People screw up. I'm a big fan of forgiveness. At the same time, the state has an interest in knowing whether this is the first time you've been convicted of a crime of the 20th.

Self-protection. Yes, identity (can) protect you from the state as much as it protects the state from you. Without identity, the government could (conceivably) steal you away in the night. With identity, that becomes harder as your relatives have documents proving your existence.

Those are just a few cases. To address your issues: your name must be on your passport because while your home country may perceive you as no threat, another country might perceive you as a risk. Usually that's simply an issue of politics, but let's say that it's 2008 and you're an upstanding citizen so you just grab yourself a shiny new passport; 2009 comes and you rob a dozen banks; it's in the state's interest to be able to differentiate between your passport and the passports of others at all times and not simply make the ok/not ok determination at issuance. With driver's licenses, an SSN requirement prevents someone who lost their license due to several counts of drunk driving from simply applying for a new one under a new name - drunk drivers can pass the exam, but they still aren't people I'd like on the road.

For better or worse, we're becoming a dossier society. On the better side, people who shouldn't be able to escape their past have a harder time (drunk drivers can't just go to the RMV and pass a test). On the worse side, people can't escape their past even when it's not that important - and I would say that a lot of people create a lot of anxiety over the fact that they have such a dossier following them around.
