I wonder why the C++ body does not consider things like reflection/introspection more important than the stuff they came up with.

All that is needed is just an (optional, like RTTI) way to simply explain in binary format as part of the genereated binary information related to structures, types, functions, global variables, etc.

For example GUI in some external format (json, xml, do not matter) that has it's signals/actions/events encoded as simple names, where at runtime you can map them to actual C++ code (Objective C has it, Java I think, .NET, etc.)

This would reduce the time writing serializers, deserializers, and such. Make it optional (again like RTTI or exceptions) - but make it there for machines which can afford it (PC, Unix, OSX, and even mobile devices).

Why this is important? You would find 100+ libraries trying to solve this simple problem in plethora of weird ways - such as gcc-xml, OpenC++ parser, boost, etc, etc, etc.

And better preprocessor.

I was once looking to buy a Mac off of Craigslist. So I sent the guy an email to ask about it. Oh, you lost the keyboard and mouse? You don't have the original OS install disc? No receipt? The black power cord in the pictures looks like one of those PC specials? Yeah, what are the odds that you misplaced absolutely everything regarding the system except for the main unit itself? Stolen.

I think garbage collection is an even better answer, because you don't pay a penalty when copying pointers.

I hope someone does a good port of Python/Jython to the Java 7 JVM - it seems the easiest way to get a good garbage collector (and JIT compiler).

Do the mountains have cell towers that are shut off when it is politically inconvenient? If it does, then yes, I would recommend legal action if you needed to contact emergency services and couldn't because they went out of their way to shut them off.

BART is fairly dangerous. It has it's own dedicated police force. Is it ok for movie theaters to jam cell phones? What happens when someone dies because they couldnt get thru to 911 during a protest in a major city? What about when they shut the Internet off during a riot in NY?

Does no one else see where this is going?

I definitely agree. But the Python crowd seems very opposed to threads on many levels, and I think there's a place for a language which deliberately excludes the complexity of threading.

This article shows Mark Shuttleworth to be outside of the normal range on honesty when he first claims to be short Apple (i.e. financially interested in Apple losing value, and not just as a competitor) and then goes on for a couple of paragraphs about how important and powerful it is --- and how much people like its products! (Even though he thinks it's going to decline.)

It is my opinion that he is out of the norm in the positive direction, i.e. he has much more integrity than the average person.

The other really important data point in here, to me, is that it sounds like Ubuntu has still not yet reached cash-flow positive. My early fear was that, since there was no immediately plausible roadmap to profitability, Mark would give up on the project after it remained unprofitable for a number of years. The fact that Ubuntu continues and indeed dominates, despite continuing to lose money, is a testament to his fortitude.

(I am not affiliated with Canonical Ltd. and I have publicly criticized Mark pretty harshly in the wake of the "explain what we do to girls" flap.)

The learn more page said the pricing was on the FAQ (which is odd) and then the FAQ doesn't make it that clear and introduces terminology like batch in an adhoc fashion.

I have to agree with you. I've tried phone support with other brands and it's been terrible.

With Apple, I can take a 20 minute drive and speak with somebody who is knowledgeable, polite and actually able to authorise almost anything on the spot, even if it's not exactly in line with policy.

I'll bet Firefox's plump user base has shriveled up like a raisin since starting this updating schedule to version 7. Using Firefox is annoying. Simply activating the browser becomes this big update/check your plugins song and dance production. Now many of the plugins don't work, and Firefox is still slower than Chrome or Opera.

I hope the new login feature makes Firefox worth using again!

I'm so glad we'll be returning to the pre-cell phone days. You know, when people never rioted or protested because there was no way to organize.
Sucks it didn't work.. I know Sam decided to send all the money to some charity or something like that, but the fact is, if he really wanted to do something useful he could have done it himself, but not basing his 'ebay-experiment' on that project. But again,that would require being creative.
It's a Powerbook 5,5 (http://www.everymac.com/ultimate-mac-lookup/?search_keywords...). Looks like it was discontinued in 2006 (?), but introduced back in 2004 -- so, older than I thought.

Still, I started waaaaaay back with the Mac Plus, multiple Performas, a 4400/200, etc.; the 68k -> PPC, 8.6 -> OS X, and PPC750 -> Intel switches have all forced me to upgrade before I wanted to. Given Apple's history, I'm absolutely certain that they'll be switching their Air, at the very least, to their new A-series processors and/or IOS. I'm simply tired of the forced-upgrade cycle.

I've also had this conversation on HN a couple times. It often ends in multiple people expressing surprise that I'd be interested in continuing to use such old, out-of-date hardware, or that I'd even expect to be able to. I'm not going to have that conversation again.
The lesson I learned: if you're going to try doing something nice, don't make the mistake of calling it an "experiment" - apparently that's just an invitation for people to spoil it and call their actions "fair game".

Unfortunately, my laptop (model posted above) uses the older style ADB-connected trackpad, and the Linux drivers for it are poor, to say the least. I've considered updating them, but honestly haven't had the time, and since I'll replace this thing soon anyway, I probably won't bother.
That's pretty much my take as well.

As a social network, G+ has too many warts. It's a royal f@cking timesuck.

As a social service, it's a huge privacy suck as well.

And I'm looking to get off of my Android phone and gmail account in the future (it's principally associated with the phone).

It'll be interesting to see what happens to the G+ early adopters from here.

I'm reminded of a SciFi short story probably written in the 1970s. A global identity system was being created, and one of the members of the team was given the opportunity to opt out of it. There's enough "papers, please" associations I have with this whole concept that it's highly disturbing.
Amusing article :) -- but in all seriousness I have been subject to many of the effects of caffeine overdose. Some days I might drink over 800 mg (the rough equivalent of 8 cups of coffee), via energy drinks, soda, and/or espresso. My stomach suffered a lot from the acidity, including acid reflux and damage to my stomach lining (mostly from soda - also, inconclusively, I suspect my appendicitis may have been related to this abuse). I would undergo "panic attacks" - i.e. adrenaline rushes, especially after exercising or during the summer and sometimes sweat like crazy in public. My sleep hours became backwards since I was self-employed - I would wake up at night and sleep through the day most of the time. I even tried quitting once for about a month, but could not handle the constant fatigue. All in the name of keep my mental gears turning to be a "better" programmer :)

I've posted this on Twitter already, but the 140 character limit wasn't enough to fully describe my question.

A few days ago, I thought about how I couldn't purchase many of my favorite computer and gaming magazines without forking out at least $10/issue (I'm fairly certain this isn't the price in the US).

Since I'm already aiming to build a startup, I thought why not start an online service to fix this very problem: one that would allow you to subscribe to many tech magazines for the lowest prices possible, and across all of your devices.

What concerns me the most right now is whether or not it is possible to get major magazine publishers on board (think Gamepro), and what kind of fee would they charge me (per issue? per year?) to be able to allow subscribers to read their magazines online.

Thanks.
That is a problem.

The real problem is markedly more nuanced than that, however.
No, you've lost the argument when you've failed to make your point. I don't believe that to be the case here. "Reductio ad Hitlerium" isn't a real logical fallacy, it's just a joke someone made up and we've allowed to perpetuate.
I'd honestly consider sticking with Apple, because I do really like their hardware, even for the price. But, Apple has been frustrated in the past with their processor manufacturing partners, and there is no doubt in my mind that, now that they own their own processor, they have a planned roadmap that will switch portions of their product line over to the A-series processors. I also think there are clear signs that OS X will eventually be replaced by iOS, at least in the non-server product lines.

Linux is usually a good option, unfortunately there's a specific hardware configuration on my laptop that makes it nearly unusable. (ADB trackpad.) I could resolve that by buying a mouse, but ... meh. It's time to get a new machine anyway.
Too many capitals and abbrevs to be useful as lipsum, but I guess it's more of a joke?
> I knew about .rvmrc’s behavior, but I thought that the shell must have provided a hook for the directory changing!

And this, my friends, is another reason to use zsh which calls chpwd() whenever the working directory has changed, which is in fact precisely what the infamous rvm cd script does (I wasn't sure, but just checked).

So those people already running zsh with rvm, you are free of the cd replacement.

Aside of that I still believe that rvm might be a tad bit intrusive and as a Linux user of old, I learned to value the use of distribution packages. But rvm is so darned convenient... :-)

Fantastic. If I understand correctly, they've switched from the teeny board (or is that a model A?) to a larger board that will be shrunk to credit card size in production, with expanded I/O, USB, HDMI, SD, 10BaseT.

Really looking forward to getting my hands on one of these.
... and the fact the words have meaning makes it very distracting. I can't help reading the words... hell, I even caught myself trying to make sense of a "sentence". The whole point of lipsum is that it let's you focus on the design rather than the content of the text.
I could just as easily say that those same mediocre minds are looking for rights where none exist.

And I won't comment on the mindset it takes to move into a place that is controlled by an HOA in the first place. ;)

Complaining about morons on an HOA is like moving next to an airport and complaining about the aircraft that always seem to be around.

I wonder why the C++ body does not consider things like reflection/introspection more important than the stuff they came up with.

The main advantage (and probably the unique) C++ has over other system languages like Objective C is the "near to C" performance and it does it maintaining the runtime at the minimum doing all his thing at compiling time. reflection/instrospection requires a more complex and slowly runtime.
@ SilverStorm:

My point is that our understanding needs to evolve. While i appreciate your opinion, I think that the definitions you are holding onto so vehemently are outdated.

I am not claiming my statement should be absolute but that these ideas and definitions need to be continuously looked at. The very nature of these concepts are disrupted, adapted and morphed with the growth of civilization, thus the basis of design for societal frameworks needs to be adapted as well.
Not sure if you're serious, but that sounds pretty extreme.

In my experience after a week or two off caffeine my energy levels actually improve & are more sustainable (although everyone's metabolism is different; reason why we all need to experiment for ourselves).

Did you try changing/hacking your diet and sleep cycles in the same process? I've found sugar problematic if I'm not on caffeine.
Sure, you can claim that assuming you have had prior experience with an HOA or other groups... My problem was that I had no idea this level of ridiculousness existed. So it is not like I entered into that thinking "this time it will be different" :)

Also, Iam trying to point out in my other comments that I am not lokoing for rights where they do not exist, per se, but that I think we as a whole need to be open to the possibility that the framework and definition of said rights need to evolve with the changes in our society, and the expression and level of our civilization.

It appears to me that anyone denouncing those who question the current state refuse to stray from the centuries old definitions.

Did not try LiveMesh, but there is one notable difference: AeroFS has Linux support (which is why I did not bother with LiveMesh)

Also, LiveMesh looks and feels a bit alien GUI-wise, while AeroFS feels more native (although it's not quite there yet either, but gradually improving).
This is not exactly true. We can alleviate the GIL issue by releasing it inside C extensions, true, but it is still there nonetheless. Incidentally, one of the big advantage of the GIL is to make C extensions easier to write.

With tools like Backbone, SC or Cappucino... are there any reasons not to use them other than programming an API from scratch and "duplicating" MVC on the front-end, meaning more work. I mean I can see that if you got more than one "ajaxy" thing going on, Backbone could be pretty useful.

I had absolutely the same experience. Quitting caffeine entirely made me so much happier and healthier. I sleep better, I can concentrate more easily and I don't get irritable like I used to. I felt faster witted and more productive when drinking coffee but empirically actually got less done.
Regarding #5, the 'a' icon in the menubar does rotate on significant activity on OS X.
On top of that, I have to wonder about the mindset of the protesters. If they protest, and cause an interruption or major inconvenience to me, then odds are I won't care what their cause is, I won't support them. That is no way for them to gain my support. Do something for charity, for the community, or in some other non-disruptive manner, and be respectful of others in the community.

It's like that band in California that caused the huge traffic jam as a publicity stunt. By doing what they did, they caused huge inconvenience to a lot of people, and got nothing but negative press out of it. They even ended up in court over it. Rightfully so.

If they feel that the only way to get any media attention out of their protest is under the headline of "thousands delayed for hours", then screw them and their cause.

I tend to believe that these disruptive tactics are more to get their name in the paper than to actually try and bring about change.

Agreed -- I've exchanged many many emails with the developer to try to resolve my issues, but eventually gave up after trying for weeks to get it to sync a photos dir between my laptop and desktop (30,000 photos, 60GB).

Really hope they work it out one day, because I'd love the functionality for keeping dirs in sync w/o having to pay for the cloud portion; but right now its primary use case for me (dealing with dirs larger than I want stored in dropbox) appears to also be its Achilles' heel.

Ask HN: What do San Francisco landlords want in tenants?
I'm trying to move to San Francisco during the peak of what realtors believe is a tech bubble/boom. It's brutal (and I have to move out of my current house on Monday without having found something else yet).

I went to an open house on Thusday for an amazing, slightly under market price 4BR in Cole Valley with cashier's check for the rent+security deposit as well as completed applications and credit reports -- and the landlord wouldn't take a deposit, and said she would make a decision about applicants over the weekend.

What are most landlords looking for when they decide between applicants? We're 4 people looking at 4 bedrooms east of the fogline (though Upper Haight/Cole Valley is ok) for $5k/month or less and keep coming up short. I'm close to giving up and living in Berkeley for another year while waiting for the economy to collapse again.
