I think we can safely say it's a tiny minority of HN users that would respond in that manner.

I'm glad to see you've come back to HN, and although you say you don't want an apology, I hope those responsible (especially the one who phoned your boss) do apologise to you.

I'd like to say its a shame recruiters have such a bad rep, but 99% of the ones I've dealt with have been a lot more interested in getting their commission than getting me the right job.

That said, I've met some genuinely awesome recruiters, and you seem like one of those, so keep fighting the good fight :)

Just a recommendation: You should tell me why I'd want to your application instead of something like Freckle (http://letsfreckle.com, what I'm currently using). Freckle's design is gorgeous, the workflow and UX is retarded good (including the popup tracker) and multiple project handling is awesome. It's also cheaper. I think a small section with text including an answer to "Why is this better than X?" goes a long way to increment the signup rate.

That particular guy was an anomaly. He claimed that his 'friend' sent me his CV and that I then called every single company on the CV trying to pick up jobs. I did try and reason with him and he refused to point out who this particular 'friend' was and it was simply his insistance that I was corrupt against my instance that I kept my word about not taking advantage of my situation.

New Community Endorsed Node.js Logo
The approach of dynamically generating a callback script is more robust than pure JSONP. If your URL returns an error (e.g., 404), you immediately notice, instead of waiting for the time-out. These days, my usual approach looks something like this in flight:

<script type="text/javascript">
var response = undefined;
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="...">
// response = { .... };
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
_callbacks[1234](response); // response == undefined means error
response = undefined; // allow garbage collection
</script>

It's a bit more administration, but I really like not having to worry about dynamic callback names, delayed errors, or non-existent callback functions any more.

Thanks for the kind words.

I agree that decent recruiters are few and far between however I think there is a lot that can be done to help change the industry. I will be following up with another post in a week or so outlining exactly what I believe are the issues with my industry and what steps need to be taken to change things.

I hope it stays a joke. Thats like putting a blind and deaf sailor to the rudder because you can't order him around the boat to manipulate the sails. Either position has screwage potential. Put him into some cmmi

Umm... that's what all 19 of those checkboxes on CSSLint.net are for.
Google+ works because it's just what it is. It's google + social. Sprite is not Coca Cola + Lime. Sprite is Sprite.
Why would they? They get free QA this way.
It was an incredibly small minority and the positive feedback far outweighed the negative. I did feel the need to highlight the hate as I think it's pretty indicative of the automatic assumption that we are all selfish, money grabbing salesmen.
The case for anxiety triggered arousal
> Google+ doesn't support the broadcast/subscribe model that well, and although it helps posters keep stuff private when they want, it ultimately leaves the decision of how much information is too much or too little about some person up to the sharer, when it should be dictated by the recipient.

Social Networks are not supposed to be the same as a broadcast medium. What is being discussed in this thread is how to bridge the gap, but to suggest that information flow "should be dictated by the recipient" instead of permitting fine-grained sharing misses the entire point of Google+'s approach to sharing.

Allowing the recipient to dictate information flow is excellent for self-promotion, marketing, and news broadcast. It doesn't make sense for how people interact with friends, family, drinking buddies, and colleagues.

It sounds to me like "channels" are defined by the poster, but "public group" (which I don't see you talking about anywhere on this discussion) would be taken from a global namespace. The way I choose to carve up reality is going to be slightly different from someone else's, and that difference is important.

(...and, in fact, the way I'm now reading the original poster's concept of "public circles" also seems like it is defined per-poster; but the mechanism on Flickr for "public groups" that mc32 is talking about is quite different: it requires a bunch of shared coordination over what that group means.)

(...and now I've skimmed through a bunch of your history on HN, and found that you talk about "public circles" occasionally, but do not mention "public groups", so I'm just confused. You do, however, compare them to Facebook Groups, which to me have that same global namespace problem. It is useful and important that my public circle might be called "Android Bytecode Manipulation" whereas someone else's might be called "General Instruction Manipulation", as these aren't even hierarchically related; "Sneaky Programming Hi-jinx" from someone else may be relevant and interesting to you as well; once you force things to be maintained in a public namespace it becomes a lot less personal and a lot less social in the particular "sharing is what it means to you" way that Google+ is all about.)
even if we aren't one of the 'cool crowd'

Funny what a difference a couple of decades makes. Saying something like that in 1991 about programmers would have been obvious, biting sarcasm.
People like you make HN worth visiting. Good luck with your startup!
Even without DRM, pirated content is usually available when you want it, as soon as it's available, in more geographic areas (try buying digital content outside USA), it's available in more formats, the file you get will work on more devices, the file you get won't have ads, the file you get won't have copyright warnings. Even if the content cartel sold unDRMed files, they still wouldn't be as good.
but 99% of the ones I've dealt with have been a lot more interested in getting their commission than getting me the right job.

There's the rub. The vast majority are only focused on how much money they can make from you and how quickly.
No good deed goes unpunished.

Also, stop calling me; I'm not interested in working with Flash/Flex, servlets and C# on a Tcl app for a Fortune 500 company within 200 miles of my local area.
Shouldn't the companies in question pay me for carrying around their advertising?

I wouldn't mind wearing such an "ad shirt" for a company I also like, if I could get it cheaper than a normal shirt of the same quality.
Fair point! It was sincere though. I have a massive amount of respect for the level of talent and creativity among the users of HN and I think it's about time you got the level of respect you deserve.
There's no followup, which is an essential part of asking questions, both to deal with evasion but also to clarify what you were asking. If they don't answer your question, you have no recourse, no call out, no opportunity to say: "Obviously you don't know the exact number, but is it ten or a hundred or a thousand?"
Facebook isn't the place to go for examples of moral soundness. Just sayin' ...

The hate mail is weird. I made a similar offer two years ago (http://blog.fairsoftware.net/2009/05/13/being-a-new-cs-grad-...), received a lot of resumes, and I can't remember receiving even one complaint.
To me, G+ feels like a better content sharing network rather than a social network. For example, you can't even privately message somebody.

There are two ways to send private messages: 1) The chat, which you have to enable for circles or individuals. 2) You can contact anybody with a private message by sharing a message just with that person. To find out if a message you received is private, you have to check the sharing details, though.
I agree and I was equally amazed by those who were offering to donate money to my paypal in exchange for what was a pretty run-of-the-mill offer of assistance.

This post is nonsense. You don't understand just how bad the American healthcare system is. Of course a medical emergency is going to set you back, the difference is it won't destroy your finances for the rest of your life.
if you'd like to cycle through the background images, go to the site and paste this in your URL bar:

javascript:document.getElementsByTagName('a')[0].onclick=function(e){e.preventDefault();document.body.id=switcher[(switcher.indexOf(document.body.id)+1)%switcher.length]};void(0);

now each time you click the facebook logo, the next background image will load

edit: in related news, it looks like Chrome won't let you paste javascript links into your URL bar. you may need to manually type the 'javascript:' part at the beginning.
Handling an out of memory error in any way other than terminating the entire process is very very hard, because the effects of memory exhaustion are felt by all your threads at the same time usually preceded by massive slowdown due to swapping (which will cause other symptoms if there is any real time constraints put on the process).

I'm not saying there are no cases where recovering from allocation errors would be possible but it's not the general case. It's usually easier to treat any allocation error as a fatal error and insure your programs so they don't run out of memory through other means.
Walk in Shower Bath For a Relaxing Experience
People are now opting for walk in baths and are installing them in their homes as they are convenient and provide you with a good bathing experience.

Interesting. I just did that in Firefox 5 and the following message popped up:

"javascript: and data: URIs typed or pasted in the address bar are disabled to prevent social engineering attacks.
Developers can enable them for testing purposes by toggling the "noscript.allowURLBarJS" preference."

I guess that is a new FF5 feature.

EDIT: Oh. That's NoScript, not Firefox. Will read more carefully next time.

Not only did it forestall a worldwide financial meltdown...

Yeah, great. It forestalled it. And when it comes it will be much worse. Those "too big to fail" are bigger (and thus riskier) than ever.
Yeah, but no. If I want to make a home or specialty video and give it away to a few folks but not sell it, that doesn't give you any kind of moral right to take it and give it to the world. And it certainly shouldn't give you the legal right. In your version of reality everything produced by anyone should be available to all comers and if you don't charge for it then they'll give it away for free? What about bloody confidential documents or video of my groundbreaking experiments? I think you need to rethink that. If someone genuinely doesn't want to sell you their film anymore well, then, bugger off.

Can you explain a simpler way to do expression style programming in C++ without using monads and haskell as a way to understand and explain? You can make an argument that you should have expressions like that in C++, but that is not the same as saying the monads made this code worse.

Also, it's a monad whether he mentions it or not. Can you reference a monad explanation that is not "cargo cult mathematics"?
> Getting the name of a new product right has to come before any innovations on UI, product, technology, and so forth.

Apples and oranges. Also, there couldn't be worse advice than what the author is advocating. Google could've called it nothing, launched and still have a modicum of success, because they already had millions of users. Google+ is not a novelty platform launched in private beta. I wish people would get that through their heads.

I think the author should do some homework and try to understand that comparing a software ecosystem brought together through acquisition is a lot harder than introducing a copy of a product into the beverage market in order to take away market share from a competitor, especially when you have power over the distribution channel:

> In the 1980s, many years after Sprite's introduction, Coke pressured its large bottlers that distributed 7 Up to replace the soda with the Coca-Cola product. In a large part due to the strength of the Coca-Cola system of bottlers, Sprite finally became the leader position in the lemon soda category in 1978

Right. Ars has a pretty solid reputation for taking its time to do an in-depth story. I'm happy to have both the quick version now and the Ars version later, and I don't mind both hitting the frontpage if the story is big enough.
The redesign looks better, but conflates "this program is by example.org" and "this program is trustworthy" even more than the original.

The basic issue, of course, is that those are completely different statements, and only one of those can be easily checked.

I think all of the complaints about Facebook policies have finally caught up with the company. Respecting your privacy is not about allowing users to create private groups or circles. It's about respect. When you sign up to a service offered by a company and accept its terms and conditions, you expect that company to respect those terms and conditions, but if those terms and those conditions keep changing all the time, people are going to be pissed off.

I noticed this with people who have looked at and reviewed Google+. They all make a comment about how the privacy settings are better or easier to access or less intrusive. This small factor is almost always mentioned, including in this video:

Having worked with recruiters a few times, I would say you are most definitely an exception rather than the rule. Mostly it comes down to buzzword bingo. I had problems when trying to explain to a recruiter that we were looking for a junior Java developer, but they kept sending us CVs with people with 8-10 years experience. After all they had "Java" on their CV didn't they. Very frustrating.

A recruiter who understands, and has true experience in the domain is invaluable. I wish you all the best!

This post is spot on. While building http://keeprecruiting.com we did not obsess over IE. This wasn't planned or anything but we really did not have the time. We ensured that it displays alright and does not break the functionality but we did not bother to make it look pixel perfect. We have built this product for recruiters who are notoriously uninformed about technology. We were helping one of our beta customers and one of the forms in the app was misaligned in IE6. We do not support IE6 but it was the only browser accesible to her at that time (new WinXP image). She immediately closed the browser double clicked on IE again and googled for chrome. This is one of the typical recruiters who does not understand about computers but somebody has told her that if a site looks bad in IE open it in chrome. The machine did not have Chrome so she went ahead and downloaded it after briefly cursing the IT that they do not install Chrome by default and that she had to get it on to her machine.

This is probably because google has started advertising big scale in India[1] as a part of the "Install Speed" campaign. Given the unbearably slow internet lines in India, highlighting "speed" as one of the features is a clever way to market it.

[1]: https://encrypted.google.com/search?hl=en&safe=active...

So for a bootstrapped startup, spending the time on getting the product right is more important than making it look good in IE. In fact, most customers don't care. They will simply move on to a different browser. You can spend the time providing them the features they need. Everybody wins.

The spirit of that slogan is more like "Move fast and don't be afraid to disrupt established patterns". The intention is to give employees licence to think out of the box and try out lots of new ideas, without being bogged down by what has gone before. Everyone I've talked to (I personally don't have a lot of experience at jobs outside of Facebook and academia) agrees that Facebook offers you unparalleled freedom to go forth and have impact, unencumbered by red tape and naysayers.

That's not to defend API breakages or incomplete documentation and the pain it causes developers -- I'm not directly involved, but I know that we're definitely trying to get that turned around and fix some of the issues with Facebook Platform.
Right, it's the PayPal Law. You'll use PayPal fine for 8 years, and then one day they'll totally fuck you over in ways that you can't imagine. Same with GoDaddy. You'll use them fine forever, and then they'll totally fuck you over.

This is from a GoDaddy customer of at least 4 years, and I've never been fucked over by them, but I've seen it happen a lot.
The problem with hate mail is that it's a lot more affecting than positive mail. The best way to deal with it is simply to smile and delete. Everyone is entitled to their opinion - but they are not entitled to change _your_ life.

Great post Steve! I guess much like some developers contribute to open source software projects, 1 recruiter wants to do the same in his field.

Looking forward to meeting you on the next HN London meetup.
"a SSL certificate isn’t a 100% gauruntee of safety"

What have SSL certificates got to do with code signing? I have a feeling it involves speaking authoritatively on a subject you clearly don't understand ("properly-encrypted checksum" indeed).
That is because they use a prepaid model instead of charging you after the registration. Just keep a couple bucks in your account and you can register domains even when you don't have a credit card handy.
Thanks buddy. I owe you a pint I think. You were the one who encouraged me to inform the community about my experience in the first place.
"A tiny flying robot of this sort, equipped with a camera, could get into places that are too small or dangerous for people—enemy bunkers, for example—and report what was going on."

Yeah, cameras - I am sure the military will equip them with lethal poison stings. I just cannot imagine how this will change military conflicts.
Interesting that he mentions Hotmail.

Hotmail addresses are indeed notorious for their lack of permanence. Last time I checked, if you do not log in for 270 days, your account is deleted, and your username is up for grabs. [1] If somebody else were to come along and take your username, they could easily gain access to your passwords that can be restored restored via e-mail, as well as your whole online identity.

Surely the equivalent of the broadcast Twitter is simply to send it to the 'Public' "circle", all your other circles will see that turn up in their streams.
Of course, all these sites are charging for is taking away the inconvenience of the free download option. If you use JDownloader[0] and don't want to see something right away, you can use these sites just as well without paying them a single cent. The most significant exception are the other sites, such as HotFile, which use ReCAPTCHA, making JDownloader much less useful.

The crazy thing about Google+ is that ordinary people are already actually using it. I have a ton of non-tech savvy friends on it already, and people are making posts that get 5-10 replies. This isn't just "yet another social networking site". I think Google finally managed to pull it off this time, and if they ride the wave of positive sentiment they've gained as a result of Android and other successful ventures as of late, they'll probably be able to get people to trust them with their data much more than Facebook ever could.
This person's post was bizarre and potentially offensive. They're basically saying that people are using circles to stereotype (wtf!).
They do have a big overlap. Both SSL and code signing use signatures to confer 'trustworthyness' of a certain source.
