i found the presented samples different from the original.

it would be better if the drum lines from different songs were showed as notes, or i can't believe that they are derived.

i think it's a stretch to make a beautiful statement, that somebody invented some loop in 60-s. i even thought the author wants to tell that if i wrote a little break bit myself, i used that amen sample (just rearranged and manipulated in any number ways). but i didn't i swear. never heard of this before today.

If we think about real life, you need an identity for things like passports, state benefits and some other stuff but with normal things like shopping you don't need an ID at all.

So if I go to a shop and buy a tshirt then I have done that pretty much anonymously but if I buy on a website that requires a Facebook connect login then I have given way more information about myself.
In real life you act different depending on the type of person you are talking to. You are basically someone else to the parent / teacher / friend / shopowner. Facebook wants you to always be the same person, and people realize how uncomfortable that actually is.

Even earlier than that actually - the Greeks had both the differential gear and the steam engine.

There is pretty much nothing technological that would have prevented Athens from destroying its opponents with steam powered tanks several centuries B.C.

Plus at the time the standard tactic would be a deep phalanx, which would have been absolutely smashed by a tank driving over it.

True story that happened to me: while trying to look up information for a restaurant reservation, I found some security issue that would redirect user to an obscure host name. I think it was an issue of bad DNS setup with their web hosting provider. In any case, being the helpful and detail-oriented web guy, I sent their head quarter's team an email with the detail of what's wrong and a solution that should fix it. I got an email from them the next morning, and since I started my email with "While I was looking up information for a reservation..." the person arranged the reservation for me. So I thought that was that. But after the meal was done, the owner came out and thanked me personally and took care of all our drinks. And since it was a Brewery/restaurant, the beer tasted a bit sweeter :)

I've also sent another email to a small online belt buckle shop to notify them of the insecure way they were setting up Paypal on their site (again, the steps to reproduce the problem and steps to fix it). The owner emailed me back to thanked me as well as taking care of the order personally. You know, most people are just happy that you are giving them some help. Being in the hacking community, I would imagine that everyone is the same here--most of us are (overly) helpful individuals. It's in our genes. So don't fight it and do the nice thing of sending them the steps to reproduce the problem and ways you can fix it. If you feel that you should protect your anonymity, do it. But do notify them :)

If one of these days, when I make an obvious security problem, I would hope, that one of us here would shoot me an email so I can fix it immediately. And I will promise to do the same.

whenever possible I create a separate account for each web service. I'm very aware of the downsides of managing separate accounts and logins but I refuse to host my whole identity with one company. I just doesn't seem right to entrust most of my digital life into the hands of a single private or public company. there shouldn't be a single institution which holds that kind of information - not even a government.
Chris Anderson (Wired editor) in his book "Free" had one strategy - to never write any feedback down on paper. By never writing it down, you only remember the things that get repeated by your customers frequently, and you just forget everything else.

It's kind of like a high pass filter for feedback, with a very cheap implementation cost ;)

Obviously this tip won't suit everyone all of the time so don't flame me. I thought it was an interesting idea though. It's a really good book, btw; some good advice and stories if you are building freemium web apps.

Exactly. I hope in the future we don't think about whether you are running version X or Y but whether you run the stable or unstable update channel.

TL;DR - agreed, I expect the government will eventually force Facebook to open up and support a common federated social networking standard.

As spullara explains below, Facebook's monopoly has come because Facebook Connect is an all-round better product. Publishers get access to easy syndication ("oh, you just joined XYZ? Here are some badges; want to share them on Facebook and let your friends know about us?") as well as higher-quality users overall (Facebook accounts tend to be real). Users get a single login from a service they (mostly) trust and easy integration with their social network ("oh, John's using turntable.fm too? Sweet!").

The brilliance of Facebook Connect is the tie-in of syndication with identity. Logging in with Facebook is a better experience than just registering, for all parties involved. This is why Facebook Connect works and why MSN Passport failed a decade ago.

The monopoly side of things is going to become a problem in the coming years; I for one expect federal intervention in the form of mandating a common federated social networking platform (a la, but not necessarily, via the protocols developed by diaspora). Federation and decentralization is what happened with phones and with email; if Facebook/social networking-style communication is the next generation, it seems like a reasonable next step.

Most users will never tell the difference, at first - Facebook will remain their default client both for login and for reading friends' profiles and news feed. With time, however, competitors will begin to emerge and offer alternate interfaces for either news feed filtration or for identity, opening up space for innovation in a place once dominated by one or more entrenched players (Firefox vs IE, Gmail vs Hotmail/Yahoo/AOL). Early adopters will be using social networking tools but will be able to seamlessly interoperate with people still on Facebook.

Perhaps I'm naively optimistic, but I'd be excited for a future like that. For now, though, I'll stick to Facebook Connect - the bigger it gets, the more likely regulation will occur.

I've found a few interesting things inside library and second-hand books.

Probably the most interesting was inside a library copy of the 2003 edition of the Clocksin and Mellish book Programming in Prolog. Inside the book was a print-out (dot-matrix, by the look of it) of an email sent in 1988 from one of the authors of the book to the other, regarding how to revise it for a future edition.

Edit: Also on the piece of paper, handwritten, is the name `Geoff Goodhill'.

But then again his third caveat on those numbers is that the iOS version was heavily promoted during and after launch, while the Android version wasn't.
Yeah, I don't think he's being entirely honest.

There's this part:

> Out of the 170 or so attendees, I would guess there were about 15 to 20 blacks and maybe 10 of other ethnicities. The majority of participants were white and mostly guys.

If the focus is on their age, why doesn't he mention the age distribution there?

The only time in the entire post that he conflates their age with being a minority is, "...in terms of age and race".

Also, the accelerator program he's running doesn't exactly appear to be geared towards kids -- although, to be fair, it's hard to tell for sure, since the founders' ages aren't included in the bios of the companies they're working with. So, when he says, "Numbers like this is just another reason why we’re launching the NewME Accelerator to help other minorities launch their startup," I don't think he means age there, either.

This really bugs me. If the focus is on ethnicity and gender, I think that could become an extremely pernicious idea in this industry, because any bets on the future successes of an idea should rest solely on the quality of the idea, and any bets on the future successes of founders should rest solely on the founders' personalities and their determination to make their business successful. Ethnicity and gender should not be playing any role in any of that; to give extra attention to a startup because of the gender or ethnicity of the founders is to do a disservice not only to them -- because they will still need to compete in a market which is far less interested in their ethnicity or gender -- but also to other startups competing for resources.

Oh, and then there was this part:

> Marci and Ben experienced what it’s like to be a minority in tech. You can have great ideas, and people can and will say it’s a good idea but at the end of the day you may be own your own with little support.

No, they experienced what it's like to be people in tech.

> It's actually somewhat ironic, since chrome wasn't ever specifically intended to take over the browser market

I remember that was the early line about Chrome, and I believed it then. I no longer believe it; Google is spending waaay too much money advertising Chrome for it to be true. I recently came back from Europe to Melbourne, Australia to discover the central train station with every available advertising space plastered with giant ads for Chrome. And I'm being quite literal about that - Google clearly went and bought out every spot in an entire section of the station.

I don't quite understand Google's full motives for Chrome but I now believe it matters very much to them that it gains substantial market share. Chrome is technically excellent and my browser of choice on any platform it is available on. But that is only half the reason it is succeeding.
Hello dear hacker fellow,

I fully understand how you feel - I've got to the same state you are, with a difference that it came 10 years later than for you. I've got the same feelings about being unsatisfied, not challenged enough, feeling not useful, feeling not understood. With a difference - though it might not be a real advantage - I did not feel inferior and I do not envy others who achieve more than me. This is because in my youth I had a friend who helped me to gain much confidence.

Still, I got stuck - secure situation, paid job, family, kids, paying the house every month - but not happy. It came to a moment when I went to my doctor and told him that I cannot continue any more. He stopped me from working, 4 months. I still see my doctor twice a week. It's difficult, but it helped me to take decisions - I quit the job and are about to build my own thing. I have still a lot to understand on myself and other personal decisions to take. But bit by bit I get the confidence back, I start contacting friends, start to talk, start to act.

I think you need somebody to speak to. You need real friend(s) with whom you can freely discuss about your feelings, your fears, uncertainties. It might be that a good psychoanalyst might help - this is the case for me, though it took me to try out 2 different before I found the one I am comfortable with. And this despite the fact that I am still critical about psychoanalysis, that I do not fully trust it, that I find psychoanalysts most of the time talking BS, that I find psychoanalysts elitists, despite the fact that they will never take the risk and give you any ETA ;) - for me it helped to resolve some problems.

Two years before my break down, a friend told me that I should start psychoanalysis. And I told him all the arguments, why I was not sure I wanted to - it is expensive, how am I going to provide for my family, it will take too much time, I do not trust psychoanalysis, etc... He told me: "Anyway, one day you will have no choice and all the fears you have today will become insignificant and it will be about your survival." Two years after the moment came. But I wish, I was strong enough to take his advice earlier and avoid the breakdown...

But this is only my personal opinion and you will get many different and contradictory opinions and advices. It will be up to you to sort out which match for you.

I wish you good luck

> And I totally disagree about the semantics. Wrapping the label is much more correct semantically - it says this input and these words are related.

No, it says the input is part of the label, which is obviously nonsense. The opposite would work, but it's not legal. The @for attribute says they are related.

> I do not understand what you mean by "simpler scripting". Are you trying to make a special script action when they click the words?

Not necessarily click, but hover for instance. What if hovering over a label gave meta-information on the related field? As I noted, getting the field matching a label (and getting *whether the label has a matching field at all) is much easier via @for, it's a trivial getElementById dereference of label/@for.

> ... this kind of 'protectionism' doesn't make much sense.

This is obviously open to some debate; your condescending declarations of certainty are grating and rude.
Nope, this does not work in general and is even worse for checkboxes and radios: it is very common to have groups of checkboxes and (especially) radios which all have the same name, differing only by their value. In that case, all checkboxes/radios will have the exact same id, which is quite obviously not correct.

And you can get that with any form field type.

Now you say "well you're using a cool form library, so it can just make ids unique per form and you get "checkbox1", "checkbox2", ..."

Except ids are unique per page, you could very well have a thousand forms with the exact same names in them, and you'll still need all of those inputs to have different ids.

Well, as an Argentinian and repeating what I said in the previous HN post: When you can bribe a policeman or a custom personnel in front of everybody there is a problem...

I remember a simple case showing that corruption is everywhere and the style of life of Argentina: there were new scanners in the airport to speed up the control of the luggages... at the end the personnel were using it to steal travels stuff. We are talking about small "spontaneous" organized crime inside the airport based on high technology scanners. Obviously there was someone in charge to control their work... and all was filmed.

The not guilty verdict of Kenneth, the sleepwalk killer, bothers me. It doesn’t seem likely to me that they jury was in any doubt whether he committed the crime. And, in that case, our legal system says you should find the defendant guilty. I guess the jury gave the not guilty verdict because they felt it would be wrong for the defendant to be punished for a crime he committed while sleepwalking. This suggests to me that there’s insufficient separation in our legal system between whether someone committed a crime and what should be done about it. The assumption, you committed a crime therefore you should be punished, is deeply flawed and deserves serious reconsideration.
