LongTemplateName<ClassName> variable = LongTemplateName<ClassName>::StaticCollection.Find(something);

This is a kind of a semantic game. You might say they're "equivalent," but you're still doing different things — and different is very rarely truly equal. For example, the Ruby accessors could be hooked or altered later without changing the interface. Not so if you use a public variable (which Ruby doesn't have, for this very reason). The only language I know of where public variables and accessors are truly interchangeable is Scala.
Interesting thought: the three most popular games on Steam[1] (Team Fortress 2, Counter-Strike, and Counter-Strike Source) and the two most popular games on Xbox Live[2] (Modern Warfare 2 and Black Ops) are all based on Quake's engine to some extent.

I agree, apple really dropped the ball in this case.

In fact, how did this app manage to slip through the review process? It seems to me that the only purpose is to funnel stolen money to somebody.

Sadly, the state of many online security systems is entirely sub-par. It's a sad sign when your email has more security features than your bank account (as I know is the case for me)

>I regard portable gaming consoles as mainly for kids personally

I strongly disagree. Consoles these days are mainly about pushing polygons and being a cinematic experience. Handheld games (as in DS and PSP) usually allow developers to be a bit more creative while still offering an experience similar to what we've come to expect on console and PC games: hours of content with things like plot and heaps of content to motivate us to keep playing.

When you buy an iOS game, you can expect maybe 20 levels at 3 minutes each or 100 levels at 30 seconds each. There's no real reason to complete these games, and you'll probably only beat them because you have nothing better to do. DS and PSP games are probably best described as "toilet games". That is, they're for when you have loads of time to waste and there's no rush to finish up. You want to keep playing these games, whereas iOS games are for when you want whatever you're waiting for to start.

If anything, the indie game market on PC is comparable to the current handheld market. They're full games that aren't meant to dethrone the big budget games, but they're instead a good way to tide you over until the next big release, with maybe a few spectacular titles in between. iOS and Android games are more like flash games, and while they're extremely popular today, I expect the market to decline without fully collapsing. People will always want to play these little time-wasters, but they'll stick with what's familiar and not actively search for anything new.

Restlet is a good attempt at writing an api that matches the http spec well. You can find docs for a client at http://wiki.restlet.org/docs_2.1/13-restlet/21-restlet/318-r.... It's still more verbose than it might be, would be a good starting point for writing a decent api though.
There are some great NGOs for hackers that do awesome stuff: e.g. the Sunlight Labs in the US, MySociety and the Open Knowledge Foundation (disclaimer: associated) in the UK. They build apps for government transparency (also international aid transparency) and participation. I believe that these are the hackers who actually make the world a better place.
I wonder if it could be because they are so small, that the dosage is relatively much larger. Their metabolism is much faster than ours: those larger dosages may also be needed to get any effect?
Well.. as someone else pointed out already: Johnathans Card is a social experiement. If we can all agree on that then anything arising out of that is a result of that experiment. This includes the intended use of 'yuppies treating other yuppies to coffee' and Odio's unexpected snatching of funds. People's outrage is also an outgrowth of the experiment just as much as your comment and this very reply I'm typing to you. We can go as meta as we want here.

I join others' in disappointment with Odio's abusing the card beyond it's original stated intent per Johnathan. He may feel it's justified but that's up for each person on their own to decide for themselves and he doesn't seem to understand that. And yes, people are giving up control. But when people give money to a school with the intent of it going to a new building and the school does something else with it, you (the giver) have a right to be pissed.

How about if you gave to one cause and someone routed it to a different one they felt was more worthy. Even though most people will argue that Odio's charity IS more worthy, it still doesn't give him that right to decide. If it were money going to WWF and he rerouted it to The American Cancer Society, again, you'd be pissed.

Following the Sega path would not be a good idea IMHO.
They would be like you said one game editor among many, wouldn't have control over the platform and loose intimate knowledge of the system games runs on.

And last but not least, they'd loose media coverage and brand power. There are only three big console brand, they get free media coverage when they sneeze while Sega happened to be talk about from time to time, when someone remember they still exists.

Sega had no choice, it reconverting or die. Nintendo don't have to (yet) and I hope they won't. IMHO, it's just typical handwaiving of greedy short-sighted investor that want a higher ROI, now, regardless of what's better for the company. Yeah the mobile game pie is larger then the console one but would the marketshare achievable by Nintendo's game be bigger than on an exclusive console ?
It is not very clear from the writing but he analysed the QuakeWorld source. QuakeWorld is the internet optimised version. So this is for server and client having latency between them.
Yes I dont think thats whats making money in Europe. Deutsche Post is making money from owning DHL I think. Not that USPS buying fedex is likely. Closing post offices has reduced costs, delaying the issues. Here in the uk we are in a similar position to the US. There is a shift to banks and utilities sending by email, and junk is shifting to phone as it is more effective.

However merging and being profitable has probably helped some of these outside the uk be less government minded and more commercial.

I don't get it. Why is it unreasonable? If I promise to pay somebody $40,000 every year after they retire, but I don't set aside money to do it, you can guarantee that down the road, I'll come crying to the government to get them to pay for it. It's not like they have to set aside the future value of that promise, just the present value - in other words, the amount that they're effectively promising to the employees today. It should be considered fraud if they don't do this.
> I'm tempted to write a program that can create an equation of piecewise line segments to fire.

I was also tempted to do that. I wanted to give it a graphical user interface, too, as that's what would be best for a human for this task: the user could click points on the screen, and the program would construct a piecewise function to connect them. (This would probably make the task trivial. But I'd want it done anyway--I like seeing this sort of thing demonstrated.)
As someone who's used Common Lisp, Scheme and Clojure; out of that bunch I would highly recommend Clojure for a beginner.

Pros:
1. Easier to setup
(with a single script from https://github.com/technomancy/leiningen)
2. Benefits of a lisp-1, with nicer syntax (fewer confusing parens)
3. Easier to get started with Emacs + swank-clojure + lein
4. Wealth of Java libraries
5. Functional

Cons:
1. Can't think of any, unless you want Interface Builder and similar, or are desperate to program using call/cc or are in any of the above ways a non-beginner. drscheme is a nice counterpoint though, in that the learning enviroment could include a bit more hand-holding.

IMHO for those coming from ruby/python etc. Clojure is a huge win. With square brackets for function-args, if you turn off or dim parens (emacs has several options such as rainbow-parens) the source looks very much like python.

And with M-q and friends and sexp editing, it behaves better.

It's been mentioned on Hacker News a few times before, but my project PageKite (and showoff.io and localtunnel) is designed to help out with quick web demos and collaboration.

Getting started is now two lines:

python pagekite.py 80 SOMENAME.pagekite.me

... answer a few questions and whatever is running on port 80 will be visible as https://SOMENAME.pagekite.me/ within moments, almost no matter what kind of network connection you have. :-)

There are also .deb and .rpm packages available for heavier users.

One really has to think of the WHY behind such idioms. The reason for not beginning to early are that you might not know what the real bottlenecks will be and therefor sacrifice readability and time for finishing an early version, which would actually allow you to have a look on how things work in practice. Usually you want to have some kind of small prototype/proof of concept to follow other idioms, like "release soon, release often" or "small is beautiful".

Also it depends on what you actually do. If you want to create something where you mostly care about performance it's not like you'd start when everything is already finished. Another thing is that such idioms are important to make you a good programmer writing good software which isn't always what you want to do in real life. Often you just care about making money or pleasing your customer/boss.

Think about Sun Tzu. A lot of people in the military read his books. He was very experienced and had a lot of knowledge, still it may be impractical to follow his idioms, even if they are one hundred percent correct in every situation.

I guess the world would be better, if everyone would listen and _always_ follow guidelines, as the UNIX philosophy, but the current situation real word sadly adds a lot of variables which cause you to ignore them.

Or in other words: It all depends.

Or to quote Einstein: All things are relative.

What a extraordinary lack of self awareness you're displaying. You're saddened by his reply to your 'olive branch' (and frankly I don't think you know what an olive branch is supposed to look like either) but you're apparently still unable to see how your actions saddened a lot of people who just wanted to encourage a little bit of happiness between strangers.
When you're doing an experiment, you want to see what actually happens rather than what would happen if everyone did the "right" thing. Thus, doing the "wrong" thing (that is within the bounds of the experiment) is a "good" thing, because it shows how and where the system fails.

Your "secondly" part isn't exactly correct, because the US law is not an experiment that people are voluntarily participating in. Its purpose is not to see how things would work. Its purpose is just to work. People don't like it when it doesn't.

I am seriously considering switching to modafinil as a daily stimulant, caffeine either doesn't work for me in lower dosages, or makes me twitchy when it works.
From what you are saying it sounds like you'd buy both. Also, in the context of kids; people should be thinking of the iPod touch as the direct competitor to the GameBoy and a lot of kids have iPods.
Couldn't you switch to caffeine tablets re: acidity?

python is widely used as a scripting language. If you are on windows they will probably ship with their own python. Even if not they will probably have to use something to glue the main program to the interpreter which will probably not be compatible with any python implementation.

How would you make an iPad less fragile? It's already a pretty durable hunk of metal. The only thing I think you could do would be to wrap it in rubberized plastic like a toughbook, but then you'd end up with a 2" thick brick of rubber that nobody would want to buy.
If I may be uncharitable, to summarise:

Guys: Wow, that's... cool for some reason! It feels good when putting money into this card to think that people with smart phones somewhere can get a free coffee.

Guy#2: Hey! look at ME, guys! I hacked that hack thing that was somehow cool and good. AND I gave peoples' money to CHARITY! Pretty awesome of me huh?

Everyone: Wow dude. Saddened and appalled. You have ruined an altruistic and somehow cool enterprise.

Guy#3: Pfft, all a bit melodramatic don't you think.

Guy#4: Hey guys, look at this article about how iPhone/Android is better than Android/iPhone.

I think the app store can definitely support games that are $20 or $30. Already Square has released several titles approaching $20 in price, and they have been very successful.

Nintendo is leaving money on the table because of NIH (not invented here) syndrome and their shareholders have a right to be disappointed.

Hi johnfn.

I routinely have such discussions with my two ASD sons. They are not wired to readily comprehend social expectations. I do a lot of explaining. There is research out there on how "social contracts" get enforced as a moral issue and how violating the socially expected thing gets really extremely negative reactions even when the way the (typically) unstated social contract is violated falls clearly within the explicitly stated rules of a system. My best explanation is that most people don't do a good job of constructing effective rules so the social mechanism for attempting to enforce order anyway is to express moral outrage -- ie make it dangerous -- when someone violates the implied social contract, never mind that it isn't a violation of the actual stated rules. The friction inherent in this situation is part of why laws are enforced by judge and jury -- ie human judgment has to take over to make up for gray areas not explicitly covered by the stated rules.

Anyway, I apologize as I am sure I am butchering my point. I am sharing the observation for your edification because I largely agree with the logic of your post (edit: I agree with your logic even though I am someone who thinks what Odio did is asinine -- my innate wiring is that of a hippie tree hugger, much to the amusement of my sons who aren't wired that way at all, so I do find such things unpalatable, yet I think the solution is "make better rules, damnit" not "react with moral outrage when someone who is wired different from you plays by the rules but does something you wouldn't have done"). I don't imagine my observations will go over any better than yours, so the post is basically intended for you and I hope it is good food for thought for your purposes.

Peace.

It won't kill desktop gaming. Upgradeable consoles have been tried before and they don't work. When only a percentage of your customers upgrade you just fragmented your market. Can you imagine how difficult it would be to buy PS3 games if you had to check the box to see which of 3 different graphics cards were supported?
Make an app that somehow pushes US politicians to see the merits of a reality based worldview?

That's about what it would take for small towns to start doing well in the US again. It's a matter of political will, not technological progress.

Ross Perot predicted what you're seeing in small towns today about 20 years ago. He called it, the "giant sucking sound" of jobs leaving America if NAFTA was passed. That's exactly what you're experiencing today.

TL;DR: Trade deficits matter.
I think most of us thought it was a nice gesture to give coffee to strangers. Sam did not agree with us and decided to stop it.

I do agree that it is within the bounds of the experiment. The experiment proves that Sam is a bully who will spend time and effort to ruin the joy of others for his own personal gain.

The fact that he attempted to donate the money to charity does not justify his actions. If he wanted to he could have just donated $600 without ruining the joy for the rest of us.

He wants to know if someone has signed it like a credit card, so it is tied to that person's signature... not for your autograph. Sheesh.
That's why it's called an honor system. It's based on trust. Not on any guarantee that it can't be circumvented. Of course it can. But if you do, I fail to see how that wouldn't make you an a*hole.

The way this is being debated here is quite emotional and superficial, resembling the discussion on Facebook.

As far as I see, there was an open unprotected commons, and some passer-by just took everything to do with it what he wants. You may rightly find this a sad thing, but you shouldn't be too surprised. This is a well known dilemma, there are enough studies dealing with this. There's a reason why copyleft licenses establish a commons protected by copyright law.
