I think the first step is understanding that there is JavaScript (the language), then there is the browser's Document Object Model (DOM) and "HTML5" APIs. The JavaScript language is used in more places than just browsers (e.g. Rhino and Node.js) and doesn't change very rapidly. The DOM and APIs vary more across browsers and get new features with just about every browser release.

I'd recommend learning the language first, then the basics of the DOM and subscribing to the main browser's blogs to keep up with their changes.

If you just want a site to learn JavaScript, I'd highly recommend https://developer.mozilla.org/en/JavaScript (as other people have too). Mozilla's docs are top-notch. They're a wiki so sign up and help make them even better.

I'm sure people are downvoting you purely because it has nothing to do with the discussion.
Not at all.

Look up kyphosis and upper cross syndrome.

Any time you're doing strength training, you want to balance your movements. If you're doing push (presses, push-ups), do pulls (rows, pull-ups, inverted pull-ups). Work your legs and your upper body. Do bilateral and unilateral movements (single arm or leg). Do strength and cardio. Mind your exercise and your diet. Oh: and rest and recovery are also key.

For many people in tech, sitting at desks, hunched in front of a screen, you're chronically tight on the anterior (front) of your body, and loose on the posterior (backside). If you look up exercise/fitness literature, you'll find a lot of reference to "posterior chain activation" or related terms, and exercises like deadlifts, power cleans, pull-ups, rows variations, kettlebell swings, etc. All work part or all of your backside, and can really help balance our your body (it's done amazing things for me, reducing back pain and other issues).

I don't know that doing 10 push-ups every day or two is going to cripple anyone, but if that's the only resistance work that's being done, it's certainly not going to help. Which is where a not of strength-training / fitness newbies get things horribly, horribly wrong: they come up with some half-assed, imbalanced, inappropriate training program / routine without understanding what they're doing or why.

Fitness activities, like technical problems, should be goal oriented. Identify your objectives, determine your resources, construct a program, execute on it, assess, modify, and iterate. It's really not all that difficult, but it does require a modicum of thought.
One is real dollars (subsidy), one is potential dollars - tax revenue doesn't exist without actual revenue to create it. If the business bankrupts without ever making a dime, you haven't lost anything through a tax break. If you give the business 100 million in capital and they bankrupt, you've just lit 100 million of our tax dollars on fire.

To add to this, looking at the upside of the risk:

If the company is successful with a subsidy or a loan, they've first got to make up the raw dollar value of the subsidy (in extra taxes) or loan (in repayments) before additional taxes become an ROI.

If the company is successful with a tax break, they can start reaping rewards right away as (assuming there is some limited taxation involved), tax revenues increase with volume.

However, with either option you're still gambling with public funds and policy and there are many ways to screw the public fiscally. I'm personally against using the tax code for social engineering purposes (punitive, stimulative, or otherwise), and doubly against subsidies in nearly all cases.

Some of that document is out of date - Interface Builder does have support for Auto Layout now. Auto Layout also has a space now. ;-) I like to spell it [Auto]-[Layout] (see the ASCII art programming language part of that document).

People may also be interested in the WWDC session on Auto Layout: http://goo.gl/5sSgK (requires free developer account).

Some interesting aspects of the system to me:

(1) The use of fairly simple but freeform constraints. The numerical solver is based on work in this paper, http://goo.gl/6fHdd. They end up covering really a lot of stuff you want to do in a natural way, and with a single constraint object with few properties.

(2) The emphasis on visualization. Most of the time constraints are created visually, in Interface Builder, by dragging objects around and snapping them together. When doing layout in source code, you use an ASCII art inspired format string that visually looks like the interface you're trying to create. When debugging at runtime, you can ask a window to draw constraints on screen, so that you can see what they are. (The debugging support itself is also interesting.)

(3) The reworking of how layout fits into Cocoa's model-view-controller design. Previously, too much was in the controller layer - to do layout you ended up having to say things that you didn't really know, because it was data intrinsically known by the view layer. By reworking the layering, the views can take responsibility for those aspects of layout that are intrinsically known to the view. This takes a lot of pressure off, because (a) you don't have to specify things you don't know, (b) there's less work to do because the views are doing some of it, (c) a lot of the time the views are coming out of AppKit, so you never have to write the view parts at all. It also aligns the easiest thing to do (don't mess with the views) with the right thing to do (use standard OS behavior). If you want to make it do something unusual, you can, but you have to say so. Your code records the places you intentionally deviated.

[Disclosure - I worked on this.]
If you open the Installer.app package, you'll find a DMG in there. You can then partition your USB drive/internal hard drive/external hard drive with a 5 GB partition, and restore the DMG onto it via Disk Utility.

You boot from the partition, and after installation, delete it and extend your primary partition (if you partitioned your internal hard drive).
Is this really the first constraint-based layout system in OSX land?

> without a lot of red tape and hassles and registering as a business

I don't know if there have been any horror stories yet, but the reality is that in our society, you need those protections offered by registering as a business and dealing with the red tape.

Our laws are set up in such a way that the individual is at much greater personal risk when acting as an individual than as a business entity with the individual as its sole member.

No. The existing Cocoa system was constraint based too, just more restrictive constraints (view to superview only). CoreAnimation had a constraint based layout system, Carbon had a constraint-based system.. just "constraint-based" doesn't capture what's interesting.

But there are upsides to death -- yes, lots of people die everyday, but death is fair since everybody dies at some point and death also produces renewal, changing the world for the better.

And I'm not saying that we shouldn't fix it. Heck, it may even make us less selfish; we may end up for example actually caring about our planet.

But in order to do that, there are more hard problems to solve first -- tyrants will be the first to achieve longer lives, capitalism will not work anymore, we need won't be able to have children, yes we do sex for fun but we also feel the need to reproduce so doing sex will be a lot less common, we'll have to work for all of our lives as wealth will become static, there will be no more entrepreneurs, whatever brain we'll have will have limited capacity so we'll forget meaningless details like our childhood (the happiest period of life for many people).

Even seemingly simple problems are actually big -- for example, right now death is fair, but what will happen after living 1000 years with your loved one until one day when she'll get hit by a bus? Then it won't be fair anymore and you'll most likely go mad.

And the biggest problem I'm seeing -- once the genie gets out of the bottle, it stays out. People need to at least make an attempt to fix these side-effects before solving death, not after. We cannot then say -- oops, this is was a bad idea, we'll just revert.

I've had family members die. It's painful, but at least you can live with it. And if the problems that I'm thinking about won't get solved first, I'm pretty sure that fixing death is a bad idea.

Thats true and I hope you often encounter that problem in research work; if you do not, you are too far from the edge.

In one paragraph, the limit seems to be two. That said, having gone to another similar school, it is a weird place. Not bad, necessarily; quite enjoyable, once you learn to accept the quirks.

What if you want to offer an option to change user login name later? This is a headache if the rest of your database points to your UID by name.

Same thing if you are making a book database. Sure, in theory the ISBN is a unique book identifier, but what if this somehow doesn't hold (ie, same ISBN but different covers). When you use only the 'natural' identifier you're stuck. Or what if someone typed the ISBN wrong? In a distributed system it can be incredibly difficult to update all the references, for example in users's shopping carts.

For these reasons the canonical DB design advice seems to be to use "meaningless" unique identifiers for objects (doesn't matter if this is autoincrement or UUID etc).

I don't pay much attention to security, but I would be surprised if this were the only feature that OSX is years behind on. I can imagine that OSX is better than Windows, if only because I have a reflexively bad opinion of Windows, and it's almost certainly better than previous OSX versions, but I'll believe it's better than Linux when I see a lot of reports from a lot of real security people.
> That means that it will do a full table scan of table a for each record in table b where postal_code = '97000'.

The query plan would be either:

NESTED LOOP
TABLE B
WHERE postal_code = '97000'
TABLE A (index scans)

or:

TABLE A (1 full table scan)
TABLE B
WHERE postal_code = '97000'

What database do you use that would perform multiple full table scans?

I believe they solved this by forcing users to identify if they want to login through tor, isn't it?

The account needs to have been created through non-tor means (ie, normal SSL). So they can still ban the creator if someone abuses the network.

Focussing on a niche works sometimes. But in this case it might be a tough fight. In any marketplaces your fighting fires at two ends, the buyer and sellers.

Here your basic problem would be to get sufficient number of jobs for providers to signup. That'll be hard given elance and others already do that and they've already taken care of one-click payments across the globe). Infact most of the devs on elance are already from 3rd world countries, and the first world people find it hard to compete with lower pricing.

Infact going the other way might be lucrative(hypothesis!), i.e. cater to a projects in niche domains, or setting a lower limit on the project/hourly price. This way you're not competing on price, and focusing on quality. There's a dearth of those marketplaces right now.
