You just made me realise it will be a total disaster. Because Google aren't buying the entirety of Motorola, they are buying the cellphone/consumer division of the company.

Hence if the clever ploys are true which John Gruber alluded too, then motorola are smart. And being smart they have already moved the best talent back to the other company "Motorola Solutions" and Google are buying a pile of average to bad.

Plus I doubt Google is ready for the HR mess thats about to hit them. If anyone here has been through a large restructure or merger then you can appreciate just how disruptive and demoralising the process is. Productivity and loyalty will plummet.

If you haven't been through a process like that go watch the movie "Office Space" its a light hearted view of a dark subject, and is way to close to home on many points.

I'm using default Ubuntu classic behaviour currently, and I almost agree with windsurfer's description. (I'm currently using 11.04, dist-upgraded from a 10.10 clean install, but it's been this way in every Ubuntu I've used over the past four years.)

If I mouse to a different window, focus does not follow (like MS). However... if I use the mousewheel, it applies to whatever window is under the mouse. As windsurfer says, this is cool because I can navigate around in one window while keeping my editor typing in another.

However, in disagreement with windsurfer's claim, my middle-click DOES change focus, as with my left- or right-click.

Anyway, I hate full-on sloppy focus, but I sure love this sloppy-mousewheel-focus.

If I got laid off, I wouldn't rush to get another job. Where I live the unemployment benefits for recently laid off are decent which means I would just take a couple of years off with less money and instead spend the working hours in coding whatever I want and contributing to open source projects! That's work, too, albeit the current society doesn't really count such volunteering as "work". But it still is: you only need some other means to live off while doing that.
I appreciate the comment - and now much better appreciate popularity of the submission. Build a respect for your company and the support will follow.

Also, my username is my abbreviated real name, and pretty transparent. However, I do also have a company social posting policy I must follow...

I look forward for the one day in the future to talk about my own startup with you Andrew.

Thank you for the insight.
The unfortunate thing is that it's all too easy to imagine a scenario where you do have to get approval from a .gov regulator to put a server on the internet.

Or worse, several of them. Your copyright license, your permit for attaching to the internet, your Homeland Security Virus Scanning permit, etc.

I'm sure Gabriel will pass by here at some point so I want to ask a question: do you find that going into an industry where you have absolutely no "first mover" advantage, where several others are already "doing it better" and where those you're competing against are so insanely "better resourced" than you daunting or comforting?

I guess what I'm trying to learn from you is what your mental state is like on a day to day basis: are you a long term thinker? Do you believe that you have many many years to solve the problem well and compete? Do you believe that DDG may die at any minute but you simply don't care? Do you know unequivocally that you can do this better than anyone and it's just a matter of sticking it out?

Yeah. So that's my question :)

Yeah, why duckduckgo was what I meant to ask. Now, other commenters have pointed out that the founder has been with HN since the beginning, and they want to recognize his achievement. Great! Not sure why I'm getting downvoted for pointing this out though. I just thought a title like "Top 50 websites of 2011 on Time (includes DuckDuckGo!)", and a link to the top of the story might have been more relevant.
Do you have a blog? Why not do a blog post "A tribute to HNs own in Time Magazine's top 50 websites" or whatever and link through to it?
This will strike most of you as weird, but I have a door-frame pull-up bar, gymnastic rings, a kettlebell, a jump rope and paralleletes for my office at work. I mostly use them on weekends or after normal office hours so it won't distract other people. Exactly what I do varies but often I'll do something like submaximal sets (e.g. 15 pull-ups followed by 15 ring dips) on the hour, every hour, throughout the day. It's a good way to build strength endurance, and it really helps my body reset and relax so I can concentrate more on thinking.

"Any exercise" is definitely better than nothing at all, but I'd do something that addresses your specific issues. For example, I tend to get really tense in my shoulders and upper back when I'm programming, and doing push-ups to failure is a great way of releasing the tension. Back when I was completely out of shape, I managed to build up to 40 push-ups per set in a month of just doing them daily to release tension. I started at 10 and just added one more rep per set every day. It was a nice bonus.
A couple more interesting snippets:

> Unemployed people who had obtained optimal jobs between the surveys showed better improvement in mental health when compared to those who remained unemployed. However, moving from unemployment to poor quality employment showed greater negative effects than staying unemployed.

That sounds consistent with my experience.

>Not all aspects of psychosocial job quality, like social support at work, were assessed in this study. A few of the results could have been biased, so the study cannot be generalized.

Ha.

Edit: I pulled those quotes from the link "recent study" in the first paragraph: http://www.fyiliving.com/research/unemployment-and-job-satis...

This looks like a synopsis of the study results. Not to be confused with the PDF of the actual study, at the bottom of the synopsis.
Email me any time. I met Sivers from a comment on HN. He ended up doing an interview and becoming a friend.
Because that would be spam.

Edit: voting me down for refusing to submit the same article to HN, linked through my own blog? Wow.
That is awesome, and now I know that (I honestly did not before). But it's weird to get downvoted for merely asking why DuckDuckGo was special in this story.

Large integrations have worked at times in the past mostly when one company bought a competitor (or semi-competitor) for its market share. Generally they haven't been great for employees of the company that was taken over, though.

Some examples include: DEC/Digital (bought by Compaq), Netscape Server business (bought by Sun at the same time AOL bought the rest of the company), Compaq (bought by HP), Lotus (bought by IBM in a hostile takeover), Peoplesoft (hostile takeover by Oracle), BEA System (bought by Oracle), Sun (bought by Oracle).

There are also numerous examples in the telecommunications market.

The Oracle/Sun deal is the most interesting in this context, because it is a software company taking over a hardware company (yes, Sun has software, but one of the reasons Oracle bought it was to compete with HP & IBM on complete system integration all the way down to hardware).

It's clear there are plenty of examples where this didn't work. Google has a huge challenge, but there are some precedents for this working.
I have! DuckDuckGo gives me fewer hits, but I am usually able to find what I'm looking for within the first few hits, which is great.

One observation is that the Duck is great for English language / international searches but not for other languages (such as Dutch) searches.

I have switched inside the Google Chrome bar and am able to access image searches by adding a "!images" inside the search or Google with a !g. Very little inconvenience there.

Why Many Smart People Fail to Lead
Actually, Google did issue bonds earlier this year[1]. The interest they were paying was so cheap it was better than spending cash. They pay 1.25% for a 3 year bond, up to 3.625% for a 10 year bond.

Theoretically I guess Google could care about their S&P credit rating (as opposed to this stock rating) if it made it harder for them to sell them in the future. Judging from how low the rate they had to pay on those bonds I suspect they wouldn't have any trouble selling them anyway.

Their credit rating is very unlikely to drop while they are highly profitable and sitting on a pile of cash though.

But you didn't ask.
According to the guidelines:

"If you're submitting a link, put it in the url field. If you want to add initial commentary on the link, write a blog post about it and submit that instead."

I think a blog post along the lines of "Several regular HN members made it into Time Magazine's Top 50" in follow up to a single link to DDG making it in fits within the guidelines, but to each their own.

All I'm saying is that, this is obviously something that people were interested to know about, if you're complaining that coverage didn't extend to others you think are just as important, then write about it on your own blog and submit that
What works (and has worked for at least a year) for me is taking 30 minutes every morning to exercise. The regime used to be very simple, it's gotten more complex as time went on.

Right now I'm at 110 pushups, 130 situps, 50 side situps, 3min abdominal bridge and 10 minutes of jumprope or shadow boxing.

I used to also do two hours of boxing at a gym three times a week and that was really the best thing ever until it got too expensive.

But the best effect of doing this every day isn't even physical. It's the knowledge that no matter how sucky a day turns out to be, I have done something to better myself.

epistasis, It depends on your definition of consequential. To me, having $40B in marketable securities & cash is a huge burden. Investing it in Motorola allows them to get a return on that cash which is fairly safe, but not without risk.

While $12B off the balance sheet is a big number, it is not consequential to their operations or anything else they are thinking of doing. Unless they are going to acquire someone even larger.

An old farmer on his deathbed called for his two sons+. He told them that while his farm did not produce much, there was a valuable treasure buried in it which they would discover as they plowed the fields. He then left them each half his farm, and his blessing.

When the old man had passed on, the two sons began working in the fields. They worked hard, from morning to night, but never found a brass farthing. Then, when the harvest came, it was bountiful. Their old father had told them the truth - the treasure buried in the land was its fertility, and their hard work had uncovered it!

But everyone wants to believe a get-rich-quick scheme, and the two sons were no exception. They worked twice as hard as before, still hoping to find the treasure. When they found nothing, they began borrowing money to buy the land from each other. They started importing expensive tools to help them dig faster. Eventually, the clamor of creditors made them face the hard truth - they had been wasting their time. And so they fell into a great depression.

+ I'm tempted to say it was three, and give the youngest a cat, a pair of boots, and a sack; but that's really another story.

Firstly it requires a decent amount of initial work and investment. While DDG does use the BOSS API, its still a lot of work to get it working right especially since DDG integrates not just that but other engines too.

A search engine starting from scratch is a huge task, which is not made easier with the brand recognition the big guys get. Since search is such a fundamental concept to the use of the web, many people think of it as a start point to the internet. This is where its hard to get early adopters because only people specially interested in new SE's would try the new kid, everyone else uses the comforting familiarity of Google.

And lastly, the leaders in the search space are some really big names. Names which have gone onto become verbs. To go head on against such competition is commendable if you're not in the vertical market. What is even tougher when the media calls you a *-killer and in the initial days you can't live upto the false hype that is created (see Cuil).

Talent issue, no I don't think so. Google's a company where individual talent matters a great deal, they're not oblivious to those issues. There will be a big culture clash and you are right that there will be many HR challenges. I worked as a contracter for Motorola (very briefly and many years ago) and can relate to the problems Google will encounter...but that's well known about Motorola. I don't agree that large mergers are always a failure; Ernst & Young is still together and successful, even though there was a huge clash of cultures there - it was literally a case of ne company being a Mac and one a PC.
Why would you use firsthand experiences when the actual statistics are freely available?
if anyone knows this i guess its me. I put my resignation in one month ago and have been unemployed for about 2 days so far and I am loving it.

My old job was in a large bank, paid well and i only had to work 4 days a week. The only issue is i wasn't following my passion and it made me feel well and truly down EVERY SINGLE DAY (was there for about 2 years).

For about 3 months prior to putting in my resignation i was also already working on a side project that started getting legs and had started to bring in ramen profitable google ads profit so that It allowed me to quit work and still be able to eat whilst not touching to much of savings along with also paying for some small amazon servers to keep the service running. I thought what the hey, lets give it a go so i quit. Shocked everyone, including parents but i just couldn't go on any longer. It hurt to much... and IT in banks just totally suck.

Also like the article says planned an exercise regime, my work hours for my currently little side project and hanging to start on Peter Norvig and Andrew Ng's classes when they start. Never felt this excited in a while.

I think the caveat though is that while being unemployed (currently like I am) is better then having a lousy job , not being able to put food on the table is lousier then a lousy job. I guess this article applies to people who aren't financially struggling cause i know some people who would take ANY job that came their way right now.

Key is that you need to be willing to give that $3 back at any time, for any reason. An apology and a refund will shut up almost everyone, even if you really did screw it up; or, at least, that has been my experience, and as some HN users can attest, I do screw it up from time to time.

I think a vendor fighting someone who is disputing a $3 charge is the height of irrationality. It's going to cost you way more than $3 to just deal with the dispute, so even if you "win" you lose, and worse, then the customer is angry and might get you a lot of bad publicity.

Lots of nice zero-click goodies:
* StackOverflow integration: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=remove+directory+symlink (can also search directly with !so)
* IP Address: http://duckduckgo.com/?q=ip
* Common symbol tables: http://duckduckgo.com/?q=ascii+table http://duckduckgo.com/?q=html+entities
* Wolfram Alpha integration: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=d%28cos%28x^2%29%2F%28e^x%29%29+dx

Disambiguation (great for software with a common word/term as a name), e.g. homebrew: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=homebrew

Favicons in the results. This lets me easily focus in on the sites that I think will be most useful.

* JQuery: http://duckduckgo.com/?q=!jquery+fadeIn
* Clojure: http://duckduckgo.com/?q=!clojure+deref

There are many more goodies I keep discovering (one nice surprise the other day was that searching for "Community" (a TV show) gave me the air date of the next episode). The best feature of DDG is the extensive integration with domain-specific information sources or search tools that often give me the information I'm looking for with no clicks at all.
