Appreciate the tip as well and for anyone else that had no idea what "with the canonical hint" meant, I think it means using <link rel="canonical" href="..." /> in the <head> to point Googlebot at the preferred public landing page (without the coupon code box).

I think you fundamentally misunderstand the complaint: would you prefer to win a Nobel Prize or be crowned king of advice animals?
I was at a meeting with a mix of business people and hackers, and one person asked another, someone who apparently was offering some sort of SEO or marketing services, for his card.

He replied, "I don't have cards. I don't need them; I'm on the Internet."

There was much knowing chuckling in the group. Such insight! Clearly this was a man hip to the times, who knew how the modern age worked.

Later, as I walked to my car, I realized that I didn't catch his full name, nor did I have any idea what his Web domain might be. How could I find out more about him? Oh, right, he's on the Web!

Except I have no idea what to feed Google, and the only way would have that info is if I committed his name to memory or went through the trouble of writing it down or otherwise recording it someplace.

In other words, as far as he was concerned, the burden was on _me_ to make the effort to be able to look him up.

Well, fuck that. You can't be bothered? Neither can I.

Make it easy for people. Cards don't have to be clever or cute, they simply need to have enough information so someone can find you later on. Put a QR code on there for folks who would rather scan your info straight into their phone. But try to make things a little easier for people who have shown some genuine interest in you.
It works if you have a "default" coupon (say knock a couple of dollars off the $30 total) that one can apply to not feel like they're "missing out"... you can still also have others, but "letting everyone win" prevents sore feelings and attrition during the checkout process.
This is wonderfully stated - thanks for brightening my mood!
I'm on a contract with a startup doing just this mostly. Mostly of what I do is opensource. And I'll tell you it's fun. There are certain times when it's very tempting to fork off or write another library.

Although I have to admit that it's certainly fun.
The problem is that every single tutorial on RoR talks about dirty and useless scaffolding and resource features.

Just forget about resources and model path bullshit while learning RoR

Start with active record then learn basic mvc routes, controller and views. Pretend RoR is just php and get comfortables with the things you usually do in php. Then try to learn form_for and all the other bullshit out there.

From my personnal experience, never use any fancy features like form_for and all in a serious projects. When they upgrade rails your project will gets screwed. Stick to basics.
The point of Scheme isn't to provide you with a given feature like memoization, its to provide you with the tools so you can do it yourself. SICP covers memoization at the end chapter 3.3.3 (http://mitpress.mit.edu/sicp/full-text/book/book-Z-H-22.html...):

(define (memoize f)
(let ((table (make-table)))
(lambda (x)
(let ((previously-computed-result (lookup x table)))
(or previously-computed-result
(let ((result (f x)))
(insert! x result table)
result))))))
What Would an Investment Banker See in BART?
Yep, I had one work.
Agreed, it depends on how you define work. I spend most of my waking hours in front of a computer, and a lot of that is building something - though it may not always be paying client work. I really have no idea how many hours I "work".

That (turning the text of a link into a clickable URL) is precisely one of the patents Apple is asserting against HTC.

If that patent is truly innovative (which it isn't, I'm sure there were web browsers and/or mail readers that did similar things well before the filing date), Google has to worry about the patent situation around Chrome, Mozilla has to worry about the patent situation around Firefox and ...

If Apple wins with such nonsense patents against HTC, wemight as well just shut down the US software industry and send it offshore (like everything else), since there are plenty of jurisdictions that don't recognize these bogus patents.

Programmers who get acquired are being acquired (i.e. paid) mostly by people in the financial industry. IPOs are largely driven by large investment houses which are managed by people in the financial industry.

The financial industry itself is really just a word that describes people who decide where to direct vast sums of money. As soon as you are directing vast sums of money you get labeled as part of the financial industry.
Wadler's critique of SICP (1987)
The only thing special about calculus is that it is where practically all universities have decided to start teaching students to create real proofs with the level of formalism expected in other courses. This is likely due to the fact the world needed more engineers than programmers or mathematicians when this stuff got hashed out.
Look at the filings for big companies. Usually the top incomes and options are given to the CEO, COO and CFO. CFOs are often sitting on large sacks of money and directly participating in the finance industry. Even companies with no other ties to finance or banking are usually playing around with the same mechanisms as hedge funds, banks and other investment organisations. You are making the mistake of thinking the only income a business makes today is from its core products and services. Most large businesses are making plenty of income from interest and investments if they aren't overflowing with debt.

That's why there should be a separate line of courses for people who are interested in practical programming rather than computer science, similar to the way many schools have separate "calculus for business" or "calculus for engineers" classes for those who aren't math majors.
What about all the masturbation???
I have. After recently moving, I opted out (for several years) and I didn't opt out my wife. Only my wife gets the credit card and offer spam.

Of course, this does nothing for the local grocery ads and "recipient at <your address>" junk mail.

Why the fuck does he consider CEOs and others who sell their companies to be "directly connected to the finance industry?" To that extent, a cashier at wal-mart is directly connected to the finance industry because she helps a traded corporation make revenue.
Competing in a free market is ethical. Abusing a flawed legal system is unethical. Who wins or loses is irrelevant. The issue is who is playing fair and who is cheating.
What exactly did Android borrow from Apple?

If Android was an exact copy of the iOS but developed separately (with no code copying) that would be perfectly OK. Why shouldn't it?
The fact that current millionaires are first generation is kind of inapposite. We haven't really been on a fractional reserve system for long enough to really create generations of financial dynasties.
Doesn't everyone expect that the acquired patents are going to be used against Android? Doesn't the makeup of the winning consortium argue for that interpretation?
>With a terrorist, the argument is the same.

I submit that it is not. How would your non-anonymous world stop a madman like Anders Breivik? He did not hide his views. He was a known user of white supremacist sites, and a known affiliate of white supremacist groups. However, no one, not even the fringe groups that he affiliated with could predict that he would carry out his horrible actions.

Breivik was not anonymous. That fact, however, did nothing to stop him from carrying out his crime.

Or am I misunderstanding this article?
I use NameCheap and they have this field. There's also http://www.namecheapcoupons.com/ though, which is very findable.

... which gives me an idea - when you hit a coupon code box, you feel the need to supply a coupon, and once you've found one everything's ok again. So what if the company makes it simple to find coupons for small amounts, say 5%, but has other discount codes as well (for 20%) that it uses. Once you find the 5% one you stop searching, and you're also happy because you've got yourself a discount. Meanwhile the company still has a way of offering deeper discounts when needed

My theory is they went in thinking they were willing to spend a lot more money than a consortium. I think they underestimated. And then after realized that being the odd man out put them in a tenuous position.

It's one of those things where people weren't out to get you. But they played their hand so poorly they've made themselves the obvious target.

Curious if the Nortel deal happened in at all the same way.
I've had plenty work. Maybe you are thinking of bugmenot?

Some venders embrace retailmenot and thrive, some make them pull all codes and probably suffer for it.
I was born in Thailand and go back to Bangkok regularly. Unless you want to live in isolation (maybe with your banker buddies), there is no comparison between living in the US and living in Thailand.
There's no reason to create new money[1]. As I argued in my post, all inflation can do is change the distribution of the purchasing power of the money... not create new wealth. But the market already handles the distribution or purchasing power just fine through normal market forces. Good businesses get more purchasing power and grow. Bad businesses lose purchasing power until they collapse. The only reason to inflate the money supply is to scam everyone because you get all the new money.

As for replacing the dollar, bitcoin is the only reasonable alternative that presently exists. Fiat currencies almost certainly will never work, because the temptation to inflate them is too great. Gold can't work because you can't send it over the internet. But bitcoins both can't be inflated and can be sent over the internet. No government will decide to switch from dollars/Euros/whatever to bitcoins. Rather, it will be the market that chooses them if they are appropriate.

[1] If you actually halted inflation of the dollar, then as technology continues to increase the supply of everything, eventually the dollar would be so valuable that a cup of coffee would cost less than a penny. You would need to make new monetary units worth less than a penny so that cheap things like coffee can be purchased with them. You would do this by taking your pennies to a bank and getting, say, 100 penny pennies with each penny, and then a cup of coffee could cost 78 penny pennies.
Reaper vs Cubase thread:

This is an response to "Hyena"'s comment as well.

It never occurred to me that there is a rivalry between Scientists and Engineers therefor I put this sentence down quite carelessly, my apology. The question: who is more important, is very futile in my opinion.

It would be like asking: who is more important, construction workers, or truck drivers? Our life would be impossible without either of them.

My main argument actually was intended to be: If you like what you are doing and you are innovating on any level, you are likely to do good to the world. (As a provider of tools you don't know how your tools will be used, you can only hope) For this you don't need to work in Academia, you don't need to be in Silicon Valley. BUT if you are in Silicon Valley by the sheer scale you are doing much more good than the average person ever could.
what are the essential skills that every quant needs to have
Never read that before, but wow. Scary to think what people can accomplish at home with a few books and a bit of social engineering. I'm guessing David was/is a fringe case, but regardless, the parent story here shows it's not as difficult as one might think. The spooky part: David's home was a short 40 minute drive from my own home in Ohio. Ack.
Apache One-Liner to List All Server Names and Aliases
Here’s an Apache one-liner I often find myself using. It will list all of the server names and alises that are contained in the active Apache config files on a machine. I’ll go into the parts of the command and how to modify it to suit your needs. This assumes a bash-like shell (with grep, sed, sort, tr and a for loop), root (or permission to run the httpd binary directly) and if you wish to modify the examples, a little command-fu.
If there was a free tier I would definitely check it out.
Aaaah, OK. Unfortunately because of corporate firewall policies I wasn't able to read the original post to understand the context.
The original upskirt markdown library, written by Natacha Porté[1], had a specific goal of separating the parsing of markdown and the generation of html. When github forked it, they apparently (according to Natacha's comments on her site) slowly added more and more logic which mingled and blurred the lines.

Now this article seems to be coming from a standpoint that separation of the two concerns is somehow novel. A bit odd to say the least. I think this is where the o.p. was deriving sarcasm.

Perhaps the real story is the separation of concerns in the ruby module wrapper, instead of at the c library level? I don't know.

I dont think your right. I've been in Bangalore for 2 months and its hard to decide where I have a better quality of life. Here I can rent a brand new 3 bedroom with gym and swimming pool for $400. Driver for $200 a month. Hospitals are cheaper and about as well equipped. You get all channels including HBO for $5 a month. Savings rate in a CD is 10%.

With the rampant unemployment in the US - I cant see why you would consider the US to be the higher quality of life right now.
same here - gave six years of my life to a startup, finally threw in the towel, joined a large company and (three weeks into my new job) have never been happier at work.
Actually, what I really need is a VerbProject. What's the universal symbol for "Invite your friends"? How about "Like"? Web apps are more full of verbs than there are nouns, but we use icons of objects as substitute for verbs. like an envelope for "send mail" and a floppy disk for "save"
Perhaps, you've heard of the obscure little Taiwanese company that built the O2 XDA (the first device to merge a Pocket PC PDA (e.g. iPaq) and a mobile phone with Internet access)?

I believe they're called HTC. They've built tons of phones that resemble an iPaq, plenty of them before the iPhone was launched.
You could try markdownjs[1].

Thought experiment.

Imagine there's a service (HackerNews, 4chan, whatever) that you use. It gives you the opportunity to opt-in to real identity, at which point, you will only post with your real identity, and only see posts with your real identity.

If you opt out, you may still post and discuss, but you remain pseudonymous. You may share your details and information, or you may share nothing. You can see all comments and reply to anything, but the people who are real-identified don't see your posts or replies to theirs.

If you let this system run, I strongly believe that the number of people posting with real identities would be a fraction of a percent of the community, often doing it to make a specific point and then logging back out.

The "open internet", without enforced identity, is just a more interesting and useful place to visit than Facebook, or any other "exclusively real identity" destination.

(note: I replied to parent because this is related; I don't disagree with it at all)
FRB is fine in a free banking system. Competition would create an ideal level of reserves by means of some banks dying and some thriving. We do not have that. Large banks are shielded from their fuckups. This creates perverse incentives for them to make high risk/high reward investments with other people's money.
As far as I can tell he equates making money from the sale of stock rather than from salary with being part of the finance industry. I stopped reading when I realized that.
To those curious about this claim, I would recommend Nomi Prin's "It takes a Pillage". She, a former manager at Goldman Sachs, makes a strong argument for the bailouts being criminal.
I did.

Do you really think Apple invented this? http://www.google.com
(turning a URL or other recognizable text into a clickable link).

That's one of the patents being asserted against HTC (which has made it past the first round of the process that leads to an import ban).
People who tend to accumulate lot's of money tend to be sociopaths and should be closely monitored and controlled.
whatevar this ain't seeing the front page of HN.
I see your point.

He is concerned with what kind of legacy he will leave.

My post was intended to address just this, your chances for a Nobel price are bigger if you are actively working on curing cancer. Yet, winning a Nobel price is not a guarantee to do good to the world (Arafat). You never know how your tools will be used, therefor being the "king of advice animals" (love that one) might be service equally important to the world.

If you like your job and you are good at it your legacy might be invisible (the soap guy) but possible essential for our future. We have no way of knowing.

Sorry for the belated reply. Yeah, I saw Atommontage and it's quite interesting. Despite the realism of the track marks left and suspension movement, the truck still seems to exhibit some unnatural "floating" feeling. These are the very pitfalls of dealing with lower-res poly collision that I was speaking about. Kind of an uncanny barrier for movement.

I do feel that this author is a bit further along at something ship-able than the Euclideon folks are though.
I'm pretty sure their interest in IV these days would be more accurately characterized as "protection".
Buttcoin - The P2P cyrpto-currency for butts.
Agreed. Between Citrix (xen) and Redhat (kvm), as well as the related open source offerings, keep getting better.

I think the main area that VMWare still has a win, from people I know who use it, are management tools and the ability to prioritize/allocate/throttle IO on network block devices (SANs) per vm.

So basically you and 90% of your colleagues hate computer science. You want a vocational education in software development, which is something different.
This would be safer for the trucker and for other drivers, but a company that did this would simply be unprofitable unless other companies were, one way or another, mandated to do the same.

According to you, truckers are already safer than non-truckers. Isn't that safe enough?

If not, should we also raise safety levels for car drivers? If so, what is optimal level of safety when operating a motor vehicle?

You're acting like the reason things suck now is that the labor market for trucker labor isn't in equilibrium.

And if truckers begin to quit, the equilibrium will shift. Do you have any evidence that it will not?

The same is not true for truckers. They don't have specialized skill sets, and their labor is demanded by only a few large firms at most. Search costs are almost nonexistent. This gives employers significant power over them in the labor market.

According to a quick google search, there are about 500,000 trucking companies, 96% of which operate 28 or fewer trucks and 82% of which operate 6 or fewer trucks.

http://www.truckinfo.net/trucking/stats.htm

As you note, the search and switching costs are also lower, which makes the market for truckers closer to an ideal free market than the market for programmers. So why do you believe prices will not respond to a shift in the supply curve for truckers?
