While I can kinda agree with what he's saying, I think that if you are going to get loose with titles, you need to have a CEO clearly defined both internally and externally.

Someone's ass needs to be be on the line at the end of the day.
did their employees all get a pay raise? are the manufacturing workers adequately compensated?
Don't take this the wrong way, but do you get paid to post these insightful little one liners in every Lulz/Anon/Whatever thread now or is HN just a private curiosity for you? Judging from the language you used in the only actual text you posted so far I'm assuming you're a law enforcement professional. I'm actually OK with sock puppet accounts but you could make a more interesting case on behalf of your employer instead of just throwing blanket statements around.
I think it worked really well. Think about who used Limewire 8 years ago, and who uses BitTorrent now. I think swaths of people stopped pirating after the RIAA suits.
Was it the "I'm not saying it's fake" part that made it seem to you that I seem to be accusing him of faking?

My point is that the evidence is wholly insufficient. It was the first post on a new blog (i.e. no reputation), no way to reproduce the reported issue, no reports of it having been reproduced by anyone else, no acknowledgment from Google (ok, maybe it's a little early for that), etc. I mean, from a journalistic, much less scientific, standpoint, it's pretty poor.

How can I provide evidence of a negative? Would you please provide evidence disproving my assertion that flying saucers visited my house last night? And motive? Wasn't that covered earlier by the word "linkbait"?

Maybe my calibration is way off today, but I'm surprised by the level of credulity I've been seeing. My original post (which I deleted and then reposted, sorry about that) got downvoted to subzero with no explanation. I agree with other posters that bugs happen, but I would have thought that such a major claim against a generally competent player like Google would require at least one independent verification.

I'll be curious to see if Google mentions this. Otherwise, we'll really never know. Well, you may, but I guess I'm a little more skeptical.
There's always money in thebananastand.
You might need to be more specific: to translate from what to what? Human languages, computer languages, etc??
Because the security email address is not a place for bug reports: it shouldn't be ranking for that query. If it did, the team would just be swamped with "bug reports" ;)

Try searching for "google report security" or "security vulnerability google" and you'll find the right information.
Then just run your attack on the day of a big algorithm or index update when it will be drowned by the usual "google made my children starve" noise.
If you are able to do this kind of infrastructure work, there are literally multiple git managers which are free (libre and gratis!) and just as powerful for developers. My employer, OSUOSL, deploys an internal gitolite and we do just fine.

For starters, the UI is something that I haven't really seen before and its pretty neat.

I am confused by your definition of "poorly". Are you asserting that GNU cat is slow, or unportable, or uses too much memory, or some other actual noticeable problem?
Ah, I hadn't noticed that if you were already logged-in and had already entered CC information, that it uses an iframe lightbox, which you're right, naturally does not show a URL.

But then, they won't be entering any CC information without being at Google's domain. You only enter CC information at checkout.google.com, and it initiates a popup to go there if you are either not logged-in or don't have a CC entered.

So, as an attacker, all they're doing is getting you (the naïve user) to click a button that looks like Google's button, and since they've already gotten you to click on a button to begin with (to initiate the transaction) they've already gotten any clickjacking exploit you need out of the user.

At what point does S3 break?

Very happy user of S3 and much of the rest of AWS here, but I can't help but ask (mostly rhetorically).

S3 is presumably the largest system of its kind ever; it's not clear to me what its failure modes, thresholds, or weak links might be as it continues to grow. Anything from a breakdown in the dynamo architecture to hard infrastructure limits to failures in operations and management strike me as plausible. What will we see first: data loss, increases in latency, repeated catastrophic outages, or "other"?

You do realize that JetBrains' IDEA is one of the best IDEs available? I'm pretty sure Kotlin will get first class support in their editor.
Well, that's great. In that case, here's what I think:

Always push yourself to do more and better work. Wherever reasonable, do the right thing the first time. I know this is hard, especially in a startup, but there are micro-opportunities everywhere.

I find that some people have this ability to stay laser-focused on a project. And some can't. I belong to the latter camp and what I do is whenever I slow down or procrastinate a project, I'd switch to doing something else. Maybe the context-switch isn't that efficient for productivity, but I'd find that over time, I feel more positive (having done work, real work), and even if I end up with a dozens of uncompleted projects, I learn things along the way and they usually help somehow, somewhere, later. But of course finish the core project.

And while I'm at it, here's something I wish someone else helped me realised much earlier: learn good presentation, writing and documentation skills. (Perhaps you already do them very well, in that case, make it even better. Challenge yourself).

There's a few visible folks on HN who are very young and seems to have achieved amazing things, perhaps drop them a note and see if they have any advice?

Evidence that our current intellectual property regime is simply not practical in a quickly emerging economic powerhouse?
Strangely enough - as one who works in a midsized enterprise company, I think, sometimes, the approach is almost the opposite. When evaluating these services, a conversation like the following takes place:

IT Manager: "I'd like to start hosting our repositories on GitHub"
IT Director: "What's our CapEx/OpEx exposure, our 2011 non-headcount
Budget is getting capped at $12 million."
IT Manager:" Well, the Platinum Plan is $200/month."
IT Director: Stares for a second at the manager. "Why are you wasting my time.
Just put it on your P-Card and move on."

Seriously - I'm guessing many of of you don't have exposure to how much money all these thousands and thousands of companies pay for incredibly crappy software that does very little, but is the "Safe" Enterprise choice. If GitHub can win those accounts, great - but I'm dubious that at $200/month there is any cost review at all - they could increase their charges by 10x and _still_ not lose more than a couple of enterprise business deals on cost.

I sometimes wonder if Atlassian hurts itself by charging less than $100K for its products, and whether they would be able to pick up the large enterprise deals if they could figure out how to put together $800K RFPs. Their competition certainly does for software that is significantly inferior.
The Pandora of Books
I think you are correct that any good programmer could learn PHP (or any language, really) to be productive in a reasonably amount of time. All the startups I've been involved with hire talent over language experience. However, I think the hirer was correct in noting that a PHP job would not be the most attractive job in this period of high demand for engineers.

Best iPhone Magic Platinum for Mac - Manage your iPhone on your iMac/Macbook

Now I'm wondering if I've been reading too much Philip K. Dick or too little.

I think there were multiple reasons you were being downvoted:

1) The grandparent to your post accused the post of being linkbait, without explaining it in anyway. You appeared to be supporting this without any evidence that it was linkbait.

2) You took the discussion about it being linkbait, and introduced the accusation that the post was faked (not withstanding your "I'm not saying it is fake thing" - if you aren't saying that, then what are you saying?), which was totally unrelated to the thread of conversation.

3) You didn't provide any justification that it was fake - merely circumstantial evidence that doesn't preclude that it could be fake. It is pretty normal for someone to expose an exploit without independent verification - especially since it appears the author hadn't considered it a security hole (note the article doesn't mention security, and they didn't find the security@google.com email address which is pretty obvious if you are using the term "security" when you search).

Given these factors, I think the downvotes were justified.

I don't think there is anything wrong with being suspicious, but I think your post would have been better received if it had presented your suspicions differently.
There is plenty of room for polishing the default UI. But...

1) Google+ != Twitter. They are competing with Twitter, but that is an argument against making a Twitter clone, not for.

2) A tiny number of users would use those configuration options. Adding options that will benefit a minuscule number of power users and confuse everyone else is not a useful way for the G+ team to spend their time.
I think the ;) was an indication of that being a joke.

Not just "has": "increases". It was 500,000 a month ago, it's 550,000 today. The iPhone simply can't keep up, it's basic math.

Not to take away any credit from Apple, but who seriously thought that the iPhone on Verizon would stop Android's advance despite these numbers?
Any company worth its weight that stands to lose big time from a security vulnerability will have a page with info on how to report it to them, and searching "[company name] security" will usually get you right to it. Disclosure is what you do after you've contacted them and not heard back.

I assumed he referred to the PE file format, but it looks like Microsoft actually makes a spec available for it.
Also, what is the link you supplied supposed to show? To me, it's like someone who, hearing the accuracy of Genesis' creation story challenged due to lack of supporting evidence, replies, "Yes, but Exodus says the same thing." It's the same source making the same claim, with no corroboration.

You imagine that someone would have pointed out an honest mistake, but that could take time. Is absence of an immediate counter-demonstration proof (or even evidence) of truth? I don't think it works that way. See Fleischmann–Pons.

abort() is intended as a last-ditch effort. exit() is the one that attempts to flush all open buffered file descriptors, and should be used in lieu of abort except in cases where you know you're screwed, or explicitly want to throw a signal so a debugger can take a peek.

I think it's more a result of the fact that China produces little intellectual property of its own right now. Enforcing copyright would raise costs, hinder development of copycat industries, and deplete the mountain of foreign exchange they've accumulated through exports. In addition, unlike most small countries that don't have domestic IP industries, China is not susceptible to US and European pressure.

The US eventually became a champion of IP laws once its own IP industries became globally dominant. China will discover the joys of copyright and patent lawsuits once they dominate the IP industries.

I understand your point, but this is different to Fleischmann–Pons because of Google's capacity to change things.

In any case, http://searchengineland.com/google-disables-url-removals-aft... appears to indicate that Google has disabled the tool and are investigating. That indicates to me that it isn't totally fake at least. Maybe it only happens in some circumstances, or maybe there is some other explanation, but I doubt Google would disable the tool completely if what he claimed didn't have some basis.
Agreed on all counts.

IMO, these arrests will deter some, as intended. I think it'll also motivate coders/hackers to write more sophisticated tools--maybe something like bittorrent + TOR + LOIC, maybe with an installer fired off from an email attachment that'd only work if the user opened up certain ports.

PayPal has very good personal contacts at FBI due to FBI's interest in payment fraud. So attacking PayPal from the US will more likely lead to FBI action than attacking any other similarly sized consumer website.
It's also necessary for us to know
a.) What platform (phone, Windows, Linux, Mac...) and/or b.) On the web or desktop?

With the answer to these questions you should be able to easily find out for yourself what language to use, as it seems you have no preference. How fast you want the translations to happen matters because it will tell you how low level of a language you're going to want.

If you're doing it on the web I would give PHP a shot as your main weapon, with the regular open web technologies for client side (JavaScript, HTML, CSS... just building the page).

If you're going for a Windows desktop application, I would use C# because I consider it relatively easy to get into and will probably be powerful enough. Some extra programming 'oomph' is going to be put in to get into lower languages for better performance.

If you're going for the phone you have to think about what kind of phone.
If you want the application to be accessed through the web, then well, there's your answer :).
For the Windows Phone 7 you can use C# with Silverlight and/or XNA to create your translation application.

So, with C# you can create a C# desktop app and port a -lite version to the Windows Phone 7 with little hassle ;).

Average people have an incredible mental block against switching from PCs to Macs. I'm speculating here, but it seems to me like what market share they've acquired for the Mac in the last decade has come largely at the margins - geeks, artists, students, etc. For the average person, their computer is still a scary, complex, bewildering machine somewhat akin to an automobile that can only be comprehended by experts. They would no sooner switch to a Mac than trade in their Camry for a Lotus.

The iPad is a psychic do-over. By creating a new category firmly embedded in consumer electronics rather than computing they can displace the computer mindset as well as the PC as a physical product.

First, individual gamblers are not the target of any sort of federal online gambling regulation.

The regulations on online gambling revolve around the accepting and disbursing of funds by online gambling sites. Bitcoins do, and don't address this issue. It does address the issue in so far as it makes transactions between parties opaque, but it also doesn't address the issue if an FBI agent can just sign up for an account and demonstrate the system working for transferring BTC.

Don’t Cede Control: Why You Need to Cut out Middle Men in Negotiations
> Adding options ... confuse everyone else

This false argument gets repeated over and over. You dont have to bombard everybody with a zillion of probably unneeded options. Separate the everyday from power user options. The poweruser stuff doesnt even have to be obvious, it is sufficient to make it possible. Theres no need to make setting a option outright impossible, if you only goal is to prevent confusing users who will never find it in the first place.
This is a good idea but the UX needs to be tightened up. I'm excited as this is a nice intro to Coffescript. I'm using the bookmarklet.

1. I submit a command, and then the auto suggest pops up after suggesting a giant list of commands that obscures the page i'm on and I can't pick any of them or clear it.

2. How do I pick from the autosuggest? can't click anything.

3. Multi-line mode. How do I submit? no hints? oh, shift-enter? I should have know, i'm a stupid user.

Hope this helps refine it.
