He basically says kicking back & relaxing and having lots of sex was his lifestyle for a couple of years.

There's really nothing wrong with that, as such. You (we) are just envious of him if it's actually true. Unless the girls weren't hot, of course. Then we're OK.
John Frink is "obviously a pseudonym"

Jake Frink and using this persona to interact with so many people is going to raise questions when it is all fake. You think anyone would hesitate to email jiggity at gmail or respond to a reddit user name jiggity or jwk or anything else?

I would say it is based on sounding white, but it makes no sense to hide korean name when you are catering to a Starcraft community.
The difference is that Satoshi is a known alias, whereas this is intentional deception.
Wow. Seems like such a simple and obvious problem and fix, it's educational to see how long it has taken to not get fixed.
Im very surprised by the reactions overall (over here on HN) I wonder IF these shenanigans were done by a NON YC funded company - if it would be responded to with more critical cynicism.

Why sort everybody into just one circle? Most of my contacts are sorted into multiple circles so that I have more fine-grained sharing control. G+ also makes it fairly easy to create new circles on the fly for when I want to share a message with an even more specific group. I think of Circles more like tags that I can use to control visibility of my posts.
So now posting a (to some people) offensive picture on a slide means that it is okay to physically attack (or attempt to) other people?

If I even get to make a presentation in such a place, and fill it with Nazi symbols I may be asked to go (or the attendents might leave) but I am not going to be physically attacked for it.

Yet bitch never killed anyone.
A choice quote for me was:

"I’m trying to think of the reporters ... who feel so strongly about the importance and social value of the evening news that, were they were offered somewhere to sleep, three meals a day, and free dry-cleaning – they would do that for the rest of their days"

It sounds similar to how passionately people work for startups, and I was wondering if there were any "indie" news orgs where such journalists could work.
I'd check again, they have a load of warp now. I also noticed all the Autechre albums are back on again. Things appear to be more like they were in the early days of spotify.
Yes in today's world, I think it's a bit poor. I write a lot of javascript, c# (software) and php. There is nothing 'easier' about javascript. In fact, VS2010 being so good at debugging and with Resharper, developing javascript can be harder! The "WTF" factor goes up 10 folds. (I've only got praises for webkit's inspector/debugger though!)

My point is that it isn't "as simple as using another char." #1 doesn't work if you want things visible on most keyboards in the world. #2 is counter to a design principle (which Python uses) that humans are less good at resolving ambiguity than people (see "template <template <int>>" in C++ pre 2011), and #3 as a specific case means problems getting methods of floats, as in "1..hex()". Of course Python has that already with "1 .bit_length()" being different than "1.bit_length()".

I agree that seemingly minor decisions can have a big impact in the future of a language. What I disagree with is that this choice of a special syntax for built-in methods is "simple", and I believe that doing it yields a language not meant for stardom.

While it's a fundamentally different approach -- Pandora has the Beatles.

I've been a Pandora One subscriber (no ads for $30/year) and I'm quite happy with it. Sometimes I do want _A_ song, but in general, outsourcing my playlist to their algorithms has worked out great.
Yeah, OP, I agree with all your points, the fact that you responded violently kinda undermines the whole thing. Throwing glass around could have gone really badly as well.

You acknowledge that it would have been better to calmly walk out, but this seems in your mind to be rather a matter of style and grace, rather than the fatal loss of the moral high ground that it is. Physical violence is worse than sexist language, full stop.

But yeah, as I say, I agree with you. This kinda shit is what makes me puts me off the whole tech scene and makes me glad that I'm kind of an outsider at the moment. That and the fact that if I'd been there I'd probably have been tempted to shout "FOOD FIGHT!"

EDIT: I see that it was plastic, not glass. Still, play nice children.
I would love to watch films/tv episodes on my kindle this way. Although half of the enjoyment is in watching an actor perform - I find it a struggle to spend any significant time watching television. Whereas, I could consume an episode fairly quickly in this format.

Although I'm sure a lot would be lost in translation. Could you imagine watching Scrubs in this format? Or House?

I think we should all get a few months off a year. I wish the people complaining about teacher "vacation" benefits would instead demand more vacation time for themselves.
I think the OP realizes that it was a joke, but argues that it was an unfunny, inappropriate joke.
That's why vocational training should (and often does) include lots of working as an apprentice.
New Rule: If you're going to show a sexy, naked, or scantily clad woman in a slide, you damn well better be making a self deprecating joke.

If you show a derogatory slide about an innocent bystander (such as an ex-girlfriend) whatever you say about them is a reflection on you, not them. (Of course, making fun of your legitimate competition is always a risk, as well.)
Ubuntu 11.04 Google Chrome - ssl error and blank page.....
The article's comparison to teaching undergrads is just sad.
FB for me (and it seems, for many) is an inherently private thing. I don't want groups outside of my real-life friends. That's the fundamental break here - I'm being followed (and following) much more widely, similar to Twitter. What Google has done is made Twitter for people who don't get why 140 characters is a feature.

So: FB for my friends, G+ for the digerati and my real interest groups. Frankly, the latter has a better chance of improving search for me than my friendship groups, which is (or should be) the real goal. I've never seen a useful Facebook ad. I've seen many useful Google ones.

Edit: The question is: can FB change the culture of how users use FB faster than G+ can capture "those who matter". Make it more public? There's a lot of resistance to making our profiles more public.
I must admit from this reddit excerpt I can not infer what is going on, except that somebody used a fake name on Reddit (the horror). Would be thankful for explanations.
It's clear from the OP that the intention was not violent, but rather, to toss the bottle back in the way that Kagan was tossing them to the audience.

In other words, the primary error in judgment was one of distance and trajectory, not malicious intent.
Chinese Paladin 5 Review
Already exists in Europe, the 'hogeschool' in Belgium & the Netherlands and the 'fachhochschule' in Germany. I attended one and I would not advise anyone to do so; you're better off with a proper CS degree. I wouldn't (easily) hire anyone who did the studies I did.

It's funny in a way, I met a lot of people in the 'underground' scene in the mid to late 1990's, and by the time they were 18-20 many of them started off at CS programmes but many couldn't keep up and dropped 'down' to the fore-mentioned vocational schools. Many of them spend 14 hours a day in front of their computers but all their 'interest' and 'passion' didn't make them great programmers. Yes they had the patience to poke at a stack overflow until they could get the offset to the payload of their shellcode in eax, but that didn't make them (us) great programmers, despite what we thought back then. I'm really torn on the issue - many of them have great careers in IT and programming now, but they're mostly not great programmers. I don't like the current rhetoric of 'don't go to university, you'll be better off with an apprenticeship/vocational school' - experience shows it's simply not true. Maybe I'm just getting old.
Ah good. That's a huge improvement as far as I'm concerned. Now if you could block someone from seeing any photos of yourself that would be even better.
I mis-spoke. My average karma per post was well over 4, not 6. (memory fail.)

If that was a physical attack, then all the bottles kagen threw into the audience were also physical attacks.

Frankly, it would have been a better outcome if kagen had gotten beamed in the head with the bottle. In that case, at least, innocent bystanders wouldn't have had to deal with hot sauce.

Indeed, the television series Spartacus gets varied responses, there are some scenes in this film is considered too highlight the violence and deviated from the historical story of Spartacus. But as a television series, Srarz TV the should be proud self... Spartacus is a favorite of viewers, and the proof many people are waiting for the release of Spartacus Season 3.

Hi everyone,

I apologize for this mess. I made a video telling my story:

Oh for crying out loud. Someone got angry at a picture of an ex-girlfriend with "bitch" on her face -- WHY?

It might be a bit distasteful, but what the fucking hell is offensive about it unless you were the ex?

If I put a photo up of my ex-boss and it had the word "cock" on his face would males in the crowd start getting really offended and start throwing bottles at stage? If so, I think the problem is in the audience. This has nothing to do with sexism.
The "Big Content" industry wouldn't be able to do this at all if they had to go thru the courts.

It is government control and government regulation that is the perpetrator here.

The ISPs rolled over because they are dependent on government permission to operate. This is defacto censorship. AT&T wants to buy radio stations? Has to get FCC and anti-trust approval. Comcast wants to introduce a new high speed internet service? Once again, they need regulatory approval.

It wasn't "big content" that made the "ICE" and "Homeland Security" shut down offshore poker companies-- companies that, it is worth noting, were perfectly legal under the laws of the jurisdictions where they operated.

The government of the USA is no different from the governments of Libya, Egypt, Jordan, and China in wanting complete control over the internet. Control over the internet is control over information, and thus control over the population.

The only difference is in the USA, they have to pretend like there's some other justification-- copyright infringement, terrorism, drugs, etc. are the go-to excuses.

But they are never the reason.

First they came for the communists, and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a communist.

Then they came for the trade unionists, and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a trade unionist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a Jew.

Then they came for me and there was no one left to speak out for me.

Oh my god. You are joking, right? You're actually getting it, but trying to portray a kind of disgusting sexist male that would say that?

The slide is offensive, because it relates to objectification of women. It's just that. It would be hard to explain it to you, and, actually, the only reason you don't get it is because you don't want to get it, so I won't even bother for your sake. But, like, I don't think things like what you said should be left without an answer, because some innocent might stumble upon them and think no one objects.

It's because of the way women are treated. It's because of the prevalence of violence and rape. It's because a dude probably won't be battered and raped due to him being an ex, but it's something that happens to women all the time. It's something that's hard to grasp for most dudes, including you. It does relate to a form of violence/abuse, and only way you can reject that is by being intentionally obtuse.

Oh, and if he put up his previous boss face with the word "cock" on it, he would stand a serious chance of being fired. He put up his ex's (or just random woman's, still relevant) photo with a word "bitch" on it and he still has a job. And the job lets him speak publicly. What. The. Hell.

This is not the 'evolutionary perspective' as you claim it is. This is just your perspective dressed in evolutionary terminology so that the reader will believe that if you accept human evolution, you MUST accept this conclusion. But the fact that you came up with a possible evolutionary past and thought of a constraint that could've pushed us to develop the adaptive behavior of procrastination doesn't in any way imply that this is actually the way things happened. Procrastination might've been a fitness-maximizing adaptation (or even just a spandrel [1]) for so many other equally convincing reasons.

It's really strange that while for molecular & morphological phenotypes we use rigorous methods to measure evolutionary relatedness so we can determine possible sequences of evolutionary adaptations that led to them, when it comes to behavioral phenotypes people think that conceivability arguments coupled with very inconclusive evidence are sufficient to demonstrate that some evolutionary story is true.
