That. I get annoyed when cyclists aren't riding far enough to the left. Don't go straight through the right side of the right turn only lane. Turn left from the left lane.

Lately I've started riding farther to the left, and I've found it to prevent a lot of annoying situations. One situation that is made much easier is where a there's a traffic light with a lane to the right, but where that right lane becomes parking after the light. Instead of stopping in the right lane, it's much easier to just stop behind the cars. Then you don't have to merge in when the light turns green and you go across the intersection; you're already merged in. And, cars can pass you and turn right on red, which people seem to like to do.

I'm convinced that staying to the right is what kills cyclists. There are doors there, there are pedestrians jumping out in front of you, there are cars turning right. Ride confidently and you avoid all that. You have as much right to a full traffic lane as any other road user.

Don't get killed because you don't want to make someone late for their meeting.

I have no idea what that is supposed to mean. Religion spreads when people tell other people about the religion. You can't believe in Jesus (or whomever) until they tell you who he is.

Atheism, on the contrary, simply means "the lack of theistic belief". Anyone who has not subscribed to a religion is technically atheistic. I'm not sure how many "atheist missionaries" you've met, but do you really think that atheism spreads by people convincing other people?

All babies are atheists, by the way.
I think people do this to other cars, also. Lots of people die in car/car accidents, after all.
Netflix needs to figure out how to announce fee hikes without provoking outrage. If they intend to become a serious replacement for cable or satellite subscriptions, they will need to bring in a comparable amount of revenue. That means Netflix's fees will have to go up dramatically over the next few years.

So, I would be grateful if you could kindly guide me to get the report somehow.
Thanks in advance
I understand that Apple is doing this because of e readers directly competing with iBooks, but according to Apple's new rules it should harm any companies selling products outside of Apple's store.

Does this mean the eBay app will be pulled if apple doesn't get it's 30% cut? What about groupon,rdio, tha amazon store and many other apps that can't possibly hand over 30% of their sales to Apple when they don't have those kind of margins to work with.

Thanks for all the feedback, guys! I started reading TechCrunch a few weeks ago, and many (not all) of MG Siegler's posts stood out because they lacked analysis and tended to overlook facts in favor of sensationalism. Understandably (but regrettably), TechCrunch values being first over being right, so he remains gainfully employed.

I want to make it clear that I don't have anything else negative to say about him other than the above (and it seems like everyone who commented here feel the same way).

I'm going to work on a filter for RSS feeds next. Message me on twitter (@ruhkesh) if you want to keep in touch!

Uh, the outrage is over on reddit. Let's leave it to them, please. There are plenty of things to be outraged about to the point we could innondate the site with them.

Down the path of "outrage!" lies discussions about abortion, gay rights, appropriate levels of taxation, health care systems and any number of other topics that people feel VERY STRONGLY about.

The formulaic three-headlines-per-section on the front page. Some days some sections deserve far more news, and some sections (sorry, but "Dining", "Fashion", and "Automobiles" hold little or no interest) deserve none. To me.

That's one of the big arguable weaknesses Andy could have mentioned. If you have a subscription to a newspaper website they ought to be able to algorithmically identify which sections and columnists you read the most and prioritise content from them on the home page. The problem with "visual noise" on headline pages is far more to do with displaying excessive quantities of uninteresting content than lack of white space; Andy's design goes too far the other way in leaving one homepage story above the fold on a typical user's browser.
Legally that is not a copyright violation. There are examples where this is likely, and companies make efforts to prove this no copying occurred. I think this is called a 'clean room' implementation.

Genesis 6:3

3 And the LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years.

AFAIK, all people in recent history (<3000 years) claiming to be aged over 120 years are either questionable or not verified.

If this is true, [i]Men[/i] still did not exceed 120 years by 128,99 days. Interpreting the bible is hard, determining as literal and figure of speech is the hard part.

If you are planning to move from one location to another you have to search out for some important factors depending upon the type of relocation. Relocation or Movement can be within the city or town, different town or city or it can be across the country.

Wedding Favors - Custom Bobble Heads
The most special occasion in one's life is the wedding. Everyone wants to look best and also have a best possible time at the wedding.

Custom wedding favors just help to liven up the spirit of joy and cheer during the wedding. Table toppers, wedding favors, caketoppers can all be personalized and custom made to make the occasion really classic.

Excellent custom made bobble heads cake toppers with your own choice of theme, background, color and even the first place you met etc can just be the right thing at the right places.
Not sure about hiring but I just checked my employment agreement (I'm in Oz) and my employer can definitely fire me if I declare bankruptcy:

*the Company may terminate your employment without notice (no payment in lieu of notice will be paid) in any of the following circumstances:
×If you become unable to pay your debts as they become due
×If you are declared bankrupt;
Because it's not really defensible. The best you could say is that Apple stands to make money, which is good for Apple, but even that's not really true, since everyone is just pulling the buttons so they don't have to pay Apple.

forgive me for being crass but this whole post seems naive. don't get me wrong, it's pretty; but we're talking about the new york times. i think this is more accurately "andy rutledge redesigns nyt for andy rutledge". which is fine, but not at all the same thing.

"broken news" is a big claim. i'm not sure a sleek blog theme is going to fix it.
What's your take on the strong emphasis he puts on separation of "news" and "opinion" and whether an editorial team could adequately resolve that? As a reader the distinction seems very artificial. I can see how senior newspaper executives might like his argument about emphasising the volume of "editorial writers ... promoted as exclusive, valuable properties" though.
At a guess, it probably indicates that the employee is a higher than an average risk of engaging in fraud (to pay off debts), and it probably does, again on average, speak to their discipline, maturity, life skills, etc.

The trouble with that thinking is of course the multitude of reasons that someone can get into debt through no fault of their own - especially in the US with health care - the fact that people often mature faster than their credit score recovers, not to mention situations like your own where there's no credit score to begin with.

I'm glad that in my native Australia, as another poster pointed out, it's illegal to discriminate based on credit score for hiring purposes. It seems that the small amount of good businesses may get from this discrimination is way out balanced by the harm it causes society in general - though obviously I'm preaching to the choir here :)

Jeanne Calment, mentioned in the OP, lived to be 122. But yes, I think most people in the field agree that 120 is roughly our shelf life.
Because when you mix a lot of random variables together, the variance tends to decrease.
The goal should be that people who are being stalked, which could be anyone (and frankly will probably be me soon: I already get the occasional death threat), should be able to participate in discussions on important subjects (possibly about death threats and stalking online) /in public/ without divulging their identity. The person I responded to seems to claim that people in that situation should simply give up: that social networks are simply not an option for them. To me that is as damaging to society as claiming that people who can't see shouldn't be attempting to use a computer, as "duh: they can't see it or read anything or stuff".

Apple Releases Another Security Update With iOS 4.3.5
Thanks Mentat. Yup, I understand CSRF and current methods such as tokenization, double submit cookies, etc. I was trying to get an explanation from tptacek or patio11 about their statements about unprotected shells and arbitrary code.

The most voted comment is from patio11 about it being a very bad idea. A lot of discussion and hand-waving happened before finally CRSF was even mentioned. Once the author implemented a CSRF fix, the conversation seemed to quiet down. So is this kind of web-based access on the road to being safe and usable now? Many popular VPS hosts offer out-of-band access through web-based consoles such as Anyterm and Ajaxterm. Are those acceptable simply because they've taken care of the CSRF, XSS common issues? They allow arbitrary code on the remote boxes so how are they different from a security concern? I have no idea so I just threw out SSL even though it probably makes no bit of difference. I simply don't have the background or experience to know. Is it time to be concerned about how proficient the hosts are in securing their hypervisors and bridged networking for guests? If they do pose a concern, then why is there not more brouhaha about it to get some attention on the matter? Linode and Slicehost have a lot of customers...

To just say it is a bad idea and move on and not mention other implementations seems to leave a bad taste. Someone also asked about Werkzeug(of the Python demesne) as well...
As other responses have mentioned, Microsoft tends to use FUD and go after bigger players (like Android), which can be seen as a symbolic attack against fairly small developers. They also use proxies, like SCO and Intellectual Ventures, to do their dirty work, so they can claim they use their patents defensively when questioned by anyone unfamiliar with the proxies' behavior.
It's not mentioned in the article, but the unemployment rate among men is higher than among women. Even if it weren't, there is absolutely nothing sexist about an article which addresses unemployment for one sex to the exclusion of the other, just as there would be nothing racist about an article on unemployment among blacks, whites, et cetera.

Still, "intent to piracy" isn't a crime. He's accused of scraping the documents, not doing anything with them. It's the same crime, whether he intended to use the as a personal library, analyze them, or put them all on The Pirate Bay.

The only question of "intent" is whether he intended to bypass security, and download the documents.

I think it's a stupid law. Wire fraud should only matter if he used social engineering, forged cookies, or some other measure that was intentionally deceiving (see the definition of "fraud"):

From Wikipedia:

Common law fraud has nine elements:

1. a representation of an existing fact;

2. its materiality;

3. its falsity;

4. the speaker's knowledge of its falsity;

5. the speaker's intent that it shall be acted upon by the
plaintiff;

6. plaintiff's ignorance of its falsity;

7. plaintiff's reliance on the truth of the representation;

8. plaintiff's right to rely upon it; and
consequent damages suffered by plaintiff.

Now, he did "lie" - he listed his name as "Gary Host". But were the damages consequential to the plaintiff's reliance on the dummy name? I doubt it.

Robbing a bank while wearing a Mickey Mouse mask isn't fraud. It's robbery, and it might bring down the wrath of the Disney corporation, but the disguise isn't conning anyone, so it's not fraud. Robbing a bank by disguising yourself as a security guard would be fraud, as the disguise isn't just to mask your identity, but to deceive the victim.

Robbing an archive while using phony credentials (but NOT the credentials of a person who is allowed to access the archive) shouldn't be wire fraud.

Some of them produce useful goods and services, but at a drastically lower efficiency than the private sector due to lack of competition and economic incentives (spending other people´s money). Still it´s good that someone is planning out the roads and running fire departments, even if they´re bad at it. On the other hand, the government also produces a lot of counterproductive ´services´ like war, financial meltdowns, and software patents. It´s in no way obvious that government employees as a whole do less harm than good.
In any book composed of random fantasy elements, written by hundreds of authors, it is pretty much inevitable that some bits will, merely by chance, be correct.

Genesis is the same book that puzzlingly fails to mention the big bang, for example.
Mozilla's biggest problem is not aligning with wants of mobile OEMs..

Right now a significant part of mobile OEMs wants mobile widget engine technology..such as BONDi..Mozilla could be ahead of the game by putting BONDi inside their engine for mobile..

My bias; exactly 18 months ago was interviewed by Mozilla for an xml dev job and suggested that very path.
It's not at all about just using XML as a file format, but about being able to build your own private business extensions to a vendor's (Microsoft's) file format and ecosystem.

XML is called extensible and has things like namespaces exactly for that purpose.
To become fully usable, it needs to support "dragging" (i.e.: listening on the mousedown + mousemove events) and not simply click.

Yep, I'm working on a political community lobby site ATM.

Essentially I am planning on creating a build your laws site. More or less a wiki with better forum support and auditing control.

A major talk back radio station in my country is prepared to support it if I finished it. I also looked after them as my role was looking after the "current affairs" suite, which included radio as well as TV.

But I have to build it myself. I have to many features that using a turn-key solution would be more harmful than helpful, and a wiki isn't really that hard to build. But some of the features I want I have never seen implemented else where so it may be a trial by fire with lots of problems.

I can easily get funding for it because of its ability to be high profile, but a conflict of interest arises taking money. For it to work I need to be able to take a stance against other lobby groups, takings a stand for the community, make the user feel like they are changing the world. And TBH if it can make noise in the talk back crowd then hot topics will probably end getting shunted into politicians faces.

Taking money corporates instantly devalues my only assets however. I'll work that out though, lots of talk still to be done, and I need a web concept up. Current all my work has been at a database level handling versioning, commenting within comments, hierarchy structures and stuff. Designing a living document is quite fun :)

I also own a really decent domain name which I plan to launch political satire off. Basically many journos I know I want an outlet to say things that the eat at them every day. You could say something along the lines of Stephen Colbert but done news/blog style. Thats on my back burner though, I'll get to it when I get to it, which maybe never.

Finance types refer to this as a "sensitive" model -- it's not robust in the face of small changes to parameters.

A good way to explore these problems is to perform monte carlo simulations over the set of possible parameters and then derive general behaviour from that -- looking in particular for 'catastrophic' features in the phases space.

Later you can narrow your data set down based on empirically observed parameters.

As an undergraduate I wrote a standard grid-based model of epidemics which does this. So it's not as though it's rocket science.

From the little I know about the Tea Party it seems to be a dumping ground for anyone who ever thought that the government didn't listen to them. From people that think we should ban gay people from 'merica, to people that think that socializing health care is an Obama 'Nazi policy.'

All of those negatives have already happened precisely because we don't have a smart trade policy.
I've heard it argued that simply thinking of a new problem should be sufficient for patent protection, though I strongly disagree with that position. Put differently, identifying the problem can be significantly more difficult than creating the solution, but I still think patents should cover non-obvious solutions to any problem, rather than any solution to non-obvious problems.
I agree, in that the article is sexist by omitting half of the adult population! When reading it, I was expecting to see the equivalent numbers for women out of the workforce, but the author didn't provide this information. Women have an equal 'right' to work, but this is ignored by the article.
Because you'll become poor, and then medicaid and welfare will cover you, somewhat. It's a healthcare system with cracks, but it covers the elderly, college students, most of the employed and the poor, which is the vast majority of the voting populace.
I do not think that would prevent this from being blown away (maybe even to pieces) on almost any day of the year.

Apart from a few fringe people there doesn't seem to be a real great push towards increasing longevity. Average lifespan through better treating illness yes but not much to help those that have managed to dodge everything and make it to 115.
