Java servlets? I wonder how the average HNs user (who loves google+ and hates the java platform) feels about it.
From the first page of results on the comparative Google search (ironically): Google Sues Oregon Company Over Patents for Online Traffic Maps: http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=newsarchive&sid=a...

In other legal protection (that is non-patent) they've sued everyone from the US Government (over their supposed favouring of Microsoft), Microsoft over the default search engine in IE 7, Froogle over trademark infringement as well as a whole bunch of counter suits.

If I go past the first five pages (which are dominated by Lodsys and Oracle limiting the space for other stories) who knows what else but I really don't have time.

Google are a big company, they have legal muscle and use it, please don't kid yourself it's otherwise.

Normal Light Wedding Photography
The Normal light Wedding Photography is definitely an extra standard type of pictures. This unique style and design entails absolutely no flash, since the illumination arises from organic resources for instance sunlight, moonlight, and streetlights for the photographs. This is sometimes a quite uncommon type of pictures for wedding ceremonies.

I'm not trying to be pedantic, but that is a book, not a study. I've seen multiple studies that show parents who withhold praise raise higher achievers (personally, I don't like that, but none the less - the studies do exist)
He was probably ill fit for a company that "values technology, not social science" - I love google for that. And i think changing careers is always rewarding. What's more interesting is his thoughts about how the "web is being fundamentally rebuilt around people". Personally, i would not like to see that happen. The value of the web for me comes exactly because it's the information that matters, not who said it and what others think of it. I also see the ubiquity of identity information to be a blocker for radically free thinking, a factor that has given great value to the content of the web till now. It's good to have social networks for those who want to use the internet as a communication medium, but i personally dislike the way social networks become omnipresent.

Out of curiosity what made you decide to switch from vertical navigation to horizontal navigation ?

I've been trying to decide which would be better for my own app and VWO's was among the better vertical navigation websites in terms of how "intuitive" it seemed.
Really good to get this type of perspective on modern "SEO", so thanks, Justin.

I was wondering if you can point me towards any resources (books, articles, tutorials, etc.) that embody more of the interesting and worthwhile side of internet marketing and less of the "sleazy" side of SEO?

Obviously there's nothing better than putting things in practice (and that's in the pipeline), but would appreciate any pointers from someone who knows what they're talking about :)
Any reference to where he pleaded guilty to a charge of molestation (I presume this is the kissing incident)?

He sounds like a psychopath, but if he was labelled a paedophile in the neighbourhood based on the statement of a 4 year old (or did the parents witness the incident?), then it's understandable there was retaliation.

Yeah, that's true. We clearly told her to speak it as "wee-zee-wig" (fearing otherwise she would simply speak each letter) but she stumbled on the word (I guess). I gather from comments here that we probably need to redo the audio.

So they wouldn't have attempted to get patent fees out of Apple, RIM and anyone making Windows Phone devices? They'd have just spent $3bn on the patents to stop anyone else having them.

They never have before - it's not clear why you think they would now?

I agree that it was a tough decision but our users gave feedback that with vertical navigation they had to do a lot of scrolling and since they compare performance on conversion goals, it is a lot of back and forth with navigation. With horizontal navigation, there is no need to do scrolling.

I think we may give an option to switch between vertical or horizontal navigation. It should be easy feature to build.
As the proud parent of a very chatty daughter of two, I wonder: what would be an equivalent sort of project for girls?
At the moment she likes Duplo/Lego because it's one of the few areas where we connect over the gender divide, but her other roleplay and games are all about caring and she's very empathic with other children (worrying when they cry etc). I do wonder whether pointing her towards hackerdom would really be the right thing to do.
There's nothing ironic about it. It's on the first page of Bing too. If you read the first line of what you linked to, you'll see that it has nothing to do with Google enforcing its patent rights.

I wonder if they'll decide to do a shakedown on Bing for using the patented PageRank method? Again, probably not.
Let's hope they will invest at least some of their newly-gotten money into improving their security.
But Sinatra is more like just the Mojolicious::Lite part with tests and plugins.
So since SEO has such a bad rep, and you're not just updating meta tags and H1s – why call it SEO? Just wondering. Is it because the common business owner knows he needs "SEO"?

I wondered this when she said "WYSIWYG". There are a few points where the tone of her voice suggests she is either at the start or the end of a sentence, but in fact she isn't.
Did you read that first link?

Google said it wants a court ruling that its Google Maps feature doesn’t use inventions patented by closely held Traffic Information LLC. It’s also challenging the validity of the patents.

They aren't using patents - they are asking for a patent that can be used to attack them to be invalidated.
This sort of story makes me sad. We don't have a tree house, we don't even have a tree. We don't have money to spend at the DIY store to keep the house in shape never mind making checkers boards for fun. I thought I was getting pretty good at quenching the covetousness that society seemed to have imbued me with but when one realises that stuff is needed for many uplifting experiences.

Realising the great joy certain things brought me as a kid and realising that those things are beyond the reach of my kids ... Gah.

A happy story made me sad; I'm too easily depressed.

Aside: email games seems really retro.
Indeed. I wonder whether pre-fabricated files will grow in size, too, or whether the ratio will eventually shift.

Bing doesn't use PageRank.

Last time they talked about it[1], it used a neural network that appeared to be have ended up with a system similar to Kleinberg's Hubs and Authorities algorithm[2].

Your point is valid though.

ALTIN RAFİNERİSİ
I think that it's easy to say when you have other things in your life (i.e. hobby, side projects) that satisfy this "feel inspiration" requirement. This is not true for everybody. If you can't find time for side projects or an hobby is it too much to ask for a work where you feel inspired/that you inspire other people? Personally, I think not.
CLIPPING PATH WITH DROP SHADOW
Spanish speakers don't have the same hangups about using 'he' as the gender-neutral pronoun. It's just a part of their language.

English is the one where people get bent out of shape over it.
I think that would be a good move, as "bitcoin" isn't really a good name. 1) it's not about coins at all and 2) I wouldn't be sad for getting rid of the nerdy "bit". Yes, it's a cryptocurrency, but that's just the underlying system. IMO the focus is on building a decentralized, global currency.

The problem with "credits" would be that it's very hard to Google, it's not really a distinctive name. It does sound nicely futuristic, though.
I also created something like this, but it's not public. Call me paranoid, but I don't want to upload (potentially stupid) thoughts somewhere else.

Meanwhile it became a project where I try out things. It has a nice API for this. I thought about uploading it to GitHub, but it's very optimized to me, the code isn't exactly clean and well... maybe I should do so anyways. Oh and it features a protocol where passwords never will be transmitted, not even encrypted, just compared. Wikipedia++

There is no "average HN user" - and I think most people here realize how important Java is to pretty much any company that is of interest on HN.

People who spend a lot of effort hating Java (or any platform) on general principle don't know what they are talking about. The Java platform has a lot of problem - and they are worth discussing - but mindlessness biases are pointless.

Google probably uses a custom Java servlet container

Google has previously released their old servlet container: http://google-opensource.blogspot.com/2009/01/opengse-releas...

I believe they use Jetty internally (certainly that is what AppEngine uses)
Glad you liked it. I thought it was pretty neat too. :-)
I agree that Applicative should be used when possible.

I think the Maybe example may be wrong, though. You may need the power of Monads sometimes. If you have a function that requires the result of a different function which was wrapped in Maybe, Applicative will not be enough.

Example:

xmlChild :: String -> Element -> Maybe Element

Now you might want to do something like:

myPath = xmlChild "a" >=> xmlChild "b" >=> xmlChild "c"

I have a crazy idea about demo videos which you might want to A/B test against your current video: get your customers to record videos showing how they actually use VWO on their sites. At least I always find it a lot more convincing when I see a video in a normal voice showing me a real use-case rather than a scripted marketing video.

For example, the Basecamp landing page with real customer interviews and screenshots of the app looks a lot more appealing to me - http://basecamphq.com
"whizzy wig"?
I'd charge a standard consulting fee for the effort involved in rebranding and building the client's version of the app and charge them $.66 (your price - apple's cut) per download for the lost sales.

Now, if you think one of the following may be true:
1) there may not be many downloads
2) there may be issues getting paid regularly
I'd get a lump sum to cover the lost download revenue.

The marketing campaign should have a targeted # of impressions (i.e. downloads) so you should be able
to get that number from your client and multiply
by the $.66 to come up with the lump sum.

If you want to take Aqua_Geek's approach which
doesn't take into account your lost income going
forward I would see if I could add a differentiating
feature to the original app and release it soon
after their version of the app goes live, this way
there is a reason for someone to purchase your app
even if they have already installed the other one.

Scanstar Inspection Services: NDT Courses Chennai | NDT Training Chennai.
If you expand the chapter you'll find the referenced study the author is drawing upon.
The algorithmic determination of districts is attractive, but there
can still be the problem of accidental "gerrymandering"---that the
voters are so thoroughly mixed that the 40% party loses to the 60%
party almost everywhere.

There is another interesting way to solve this. Divide the land into
even-population districts in any way. Then, let the population vote
on the candidates. Finally, in each district, choose one vote at
random to determine the winner. The distribution of the
representatives' party allegiations will be statistically very close
to the actual distribution in the population. (This is not my idea; I
read it somewhere some time ago.)

Somehow I'm comforted that there's still room in the open source universe for a project that hasn't released an update in four years. It's oddly comforting, and serves as a nice change of tone from the common "release early, release often" mantra.

I'm all for releasing early, but for many open source developers (myself included) life has a tendency to get in the way sometimes, causing focus to move away from one's projects. Of course, I haven't looked up the details of the PuTTY folks now, but from the release notes it sounds as if they at least aren't getting paid do to PuTTY.

His suggestion involved the operating system computing the md5 digest of the executable file before running it. In this case you would not be looking to see if it matches the digest that wherever you downloaded it from provided. There is no foo.md5sum for them to replace.

This scheme is easily subverted many ways: by having the executable only being bad a few times, or much later than when the user could identify it as the source, or a collision attack against the hash function.

Also note that digital signatures are only as strong as their components. It doesn't matter that you signed it if you use md5sum in the process of signing it. An attacker just needs a binary that has the same digest as the one the signature says it does, which results in attacks that completely ignore the bits that involve the asynchronous keys.

Sorry, my bad.

But the reality is that they do use legal muscle where it works and there have been other companies who've stated that they only bought patents for defensive purposes who soon shifted. I honestly can't see Google holding that line - you may disagree but only time will tell who is right.

I'd also suggest that Google's lack of use of patents in this way so far is likely as much down to the fact that they have a notoriously weak patent portfolio (estimated to be one twenty fifth the size of Microsoft's - largely a function of age rather than intent). Google suing another large company would be taking a knife to a gun fight.

> Ok, seriously? That isn't a bug in an implementation somewhere,

No.

> but in fact a feature that Apple actually is proud of?

Not just Apple, but I imagine also Microsoft and Sun. They were so proud of it that they wrote a standards-track RFC for it: http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4436.txt

And yes, they were aware of this issue:

One case where DNAv4 does increase the likelihood of an address
conflict is when:

o a DHCP server hands out an address lease,

o the host with that lease leaves the network,

o the DHCP server is power-cycled or crashes and is rebooted,

o the DHCP server, having failed to save leases to stable
storage, assigns that same address to another host, and

o the first host returns and, having a still-valid lease with
time remaining, proceeds to use its assigned address,
conflicting with the new host that is now using that same
address.

While Section 4 of the DHCP specification [RFC2131] assumes that DHCP
servers save their leases in persistent storage, almost no consumer-
grade NAT gateway does so. Short DHCP lease lifetimes can mitigate
this risk, though this also limits the operable candidate
configurations available for DNAv4 to try.

But evidently they thought it was a good trade-off, and I am inclined to agree.
