How to get over shyness:

1) Take up some kind of partner dancing as a hobby eg. salsa, swing, etc. It doesn't matter as long as it looks like fun. This will force you to connect with people and push your comfort limits.

2) Start going to social dances after you know a few moves. Usually the class teacher will be able to tell you where you can dance socially. This will get you in the habit of asking women for dances.

3) To make friends, you need to invite people to do things away from the place you know them from. So if you meet someone you seem to get along with, say something like "Hey, I'm thinking of going to see this movie this weekend. You interested?" Since you've been asking women to dance, this should be much easier by this time.

And don't think you won't meet programmers dancing. I once asked my teacher once why so many of the regular guy dancers were programmers or accountants. She said that it wasn't just limited to my city but all over the world, programmers and accountants make up a disproportionate amount of the male dancers.
It's a strange irony that Google, the driving force behind the invention of SEO, often fail to bother with it themselves, even on extremely high-profile products.

As noted, Google Profiles have meaningless, unguessable URLs:

> Consider how ridiculous that would sound if you asked "What if one of your friends had emailed you their phone number and wanted to remove your access to it (or had emailed you and wanted to remove your knowledge of their email address)?

That would be a fine system -- where phone numbers and other means of contact can become invalidated if the owner wants them to.
Plenty of really good products come from companies that go out of business, and Nautilus was one of them. It drove the Linux desktop experience forward by about a decade – from Apple c. 1993 to Apple c. 2003, as flippant as that sounds.

I switched to Linux on the desktop for a couple years largely on the strength of Nautilus. I eventually gave up and went to OS X (conveniently if accidentally using Linux to skip most of Apple’s rough OS transition period) when it became clear that, although there were some brilliant people on the Gnome team and elsewhere,* Nautilus and its approach was being left for dead. Instead, there were five years of stagnant file managers with pseudo-Aqua pinstripe themes. But Nautilus gets a lot of credit for trying.

Set a schedule weekly in advance of MUSTS, then, your (realistic) breaks: personal, friends, and family. Then fill in the rest (even if it needs to be "flexible" with duties).

Helped me when I ran a (non tech) small business at 90 hours a week, planning out every 15 minutes from 6:00 am - 10:00 pm.

Eventually I burnt out and had a nervous breakdown, so be careful with allotting yourself that personal time. Their is a reason I believe it to be priority #2 outside of the MUSTS or those items which cannot be changed in your schedule.

Look at outsourcing the mundane, hiring for what you can, and learning to delegate (if relevant). Most people are horrid at delegation and that will become an incredible boon for you in the future.

The price and specs are great compared to EC2, but there's a problem for some use cases: you're charged for a month as soon as you create a server. The credit remains available as long as you have an account, and any remaining credit is refunded if you close your account, but you can't just spin up a big server for 3 hours and pay $5. Instead, you have to pay $1000, then close your account if you want your $995 back.

They don't see the potential impact of associating a particular username from a jobs website with an email address?

I would be concerned about more targeted phishing attacks: I tend towards using my real name as my username on job websites, and given a list of usernames and emails, I'm very sure you could produce some more believable phishing emails than regularly received.

Edit: Thinking more on this, it would be reasonable in any of these email + username exposures to simply apply a filter of common names, and then use them in a more legitimate looking email. I don't see much of this in my spam (my email address is firstnamelastname@domain.com, and my first name is common), so I would take a stab and say that perhaps the number of people likely to fall for this would not significantly increase with improvement in the quality of the initial email.
the depressing truth is that guaranteeing correct software
is incredibly difficult and expensive

There is a world of difference between the correctness of industrial programs that follow 'cargo cult best practices' and the correctness of scientific programs. This is achieved without incurring incredible expenses. That we can't go all the way by (practical) definition doesn't mean we shouldn't try to get further.

One of the main problems is convincing, especially young, scientists that their code sucks. Young programmers, you can coach. You review their code, teach them what works and what doesn't and they get better. Scientists that happen to write progams, they don't learn to become better programmers: they've got other things to worry about. There's nobody to help them and since they're usually highly intelligent and overestimate their capabilities in things they don't want to spend time on (which is a way of justifying for yourself not to spend time on it), they need all the more guidance to become good.
Google really needs to get their shit together and let anybody in. Facebook does it, and Google will loose unless we can migrate our entire social graph.
No no. I just scanned the text and saw the image and jumped to conclusions.

That said, if I saw a startup founder posing in any sort of check-out-my-body way in order to convey the culture of the company, I would find it entirely unprofessional. Well unless it was an exercise company I suppose.

A little unsolicited advice from a technical founder on his fourth startup? What I look for in co-founders first and foremost is their ability to execute, not culture. In a small startup, everyone shapes culture. I'm looking for someone who is respectable enough to bring into a VC, looks like they're on top of their game, is fearless, is absolutely passionate about their idea, can convince other people that their idea is great and has some sense of what they're doing.

Good luck with your search!
I disagree. Well written and abstracted code makes mathematical formulas easy to scan and proofread.

Your code should look like this:

angle = acos( ( a . b ) /
(|a|*|b|) )

If it looks like this . . .

angle2 = Math.acos((a.x*b.x + a.y*b.y +
a.z*b.z)/Math.sqrt(a.x*a.x + a.y*a.y +
a.z*a.z)*Math.sqrt(b.x*b.x + b.y*b.y +
b.z*b.z))

. . . you're likely to miss the error*

Bad code compiles. Good code works right. Great code is so obviously right you don't have to wonder.

*Those are the same formula, though the second one is missing some critical parentheses. I use the example because I have done exactly this and been bitten by exactly this, and now am fanatical about keeping my mathematical formulas clean and obvious.
It's not just UI polish that make Apple products what they are though - it's the design that goes into a product even before an engineer writes a single line of code, or before a prototype is even built.

Apple isn't afraid to have a bad idea and then toss it out because, after all, ideas are cheap. If you build a turd and you polish it, are you still going to release that polished turd? The Apple way is to design it the right way from the start, THEN you polish it.
Okay, fine, one good product in 10 years and bad intentions...

Really cool calculation. This is to get to Embarcadero Bart I assume?

One thing about SF public transit I've learned: Aside from BART, it is slow. If you live within 4 miles of your destination, biking most likely is faster.
(Case in point: I live in a 35-50 min grid. By bike I'd get to the Embarcadero BART in under 25 minutes.
That is exactly what one should worry about.
The rates are comparable per sqft if you're willing to be in a seedy part of town (mission, west soma). If you want to be in the nicer parts of SF, if you can even find a good listing, it will cost way more.

That said I'm super happy with workout out of the mission near the 24th street bart. And it's very affordable.
Same thing happens in your stream on Google+.
Interesting - I haven't applied for a job in 3.5 years (because I own my own company) but at the same time, if I were to apply for a job...I wouldn't.

There's no real point. Don't bother trying to just do the same damn thing everyone else has done. Recruiters and hiring managers get 1k+ resumes a day.

Do something crazy, something nuts. Stand out from the crowd. The last thing you want to do is blend in because you just turn into another sheet of paper in the pile, even if you are near the top!

I'm going to put forth an example here: my cousin just graduated from high school in Grant's Pass Oregon. Small school, small town.

He's going to Oxford.

OXFORD.

Good for him! And he asked me what he should do for a graduation speech. I said "do something they'll never forget - make them remember you in your town forever"

His graduation speech was a two-parter with his best friend. The first part was an adaptation of "who's on first" and the second part was Dr. Seuss.

They'll never forget him, and they are sad he is leaving.

Do the same thing when applying for a job. You won't regret it.

> writing the code (or "codes" as they call it)

It's funny how this exact same mistake is made in the linked paper. For some reason, people outside of IT can't get it into their minds that "code" is an uncountable noun in this context.
There are many ways to do that, but interestingly enough, John Locke, one of the big early winners from digital publishing on Amazon, suggests not promoting your book heavily on twitter, at least not directly.

I'm going to write a post on the book soon, as I thought it quite interesting in its own right, and of course it's very relevant to LiberWriter. It's worth a read if you're at all interested in books: http://t.co/L9XOQ6U
Ah, well - we /do/ come from different worlds. My initial reaction to the word "codes" is to look for the "plz send me the" somewhere before it.

That said, at least (some kinds of) EEs seem to have it better - the basic Spice simulator was released under a permissive license a really long time ago, and there are people like Fabio Somenzi who make available things like CUDD (it's also used commercially.) Mind you, these have a significant overlap with CS, where the culture is different. I would be very happy to see a good open-source EM field solver, for example.

yet so email lives on and is still the best communication medium we have on the planet that works and is as universally understood as SMS.

good luck writing interesting stories over the next month. or alternatively - be prepared for G+ spam, twitter+ spam and all the rest. you're just offsetting one advanced SPAM medium for ones which aren't as advanced in SPAM filtering [outrageous generalization :) but true]

One follow-up thought for you and anyone in this situation: Set up a Google Webmaster Tools account ( http://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/ ) and make reviewing it part of the webmasters' daily routine. In this particular case, the Crawl Errors page in the Diagnostics section would have flagged this problem very quickly.

1. Be sure to look at the "date detected" column because it is accurate and somehow people miss it.

2. Set up email forwarding for messages Webmaster Tools sends to you: http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?answe...

Business books can be kind fun to read, but I have the same doubt. I think there are a couple metrics one can use to judge a bit more concretely:

* How compressible is it? In other words, how succinctly can the main ideas be summed up? Even some quite interesting books such as The Innovator's Dilemma, are fairly easy to sum up in a few pages. This is because there is one core idea and a lot of stories, statistics, and other extra supporting material.

* How much actionable advice is there? For instance, one thing I liked a lot about Rob Walling's "Start Small, Stay Small" is that he comes out and suggests some price numbers for online products, rather than a wishy-washy "figure out what your market will pay" or something equally non-committal. As another example, "do less" is sort of a handwavy guideline that is harder to do anything with, although we do live by it at http://73primenumbers.com/ .
