Their lawyers were supposed to be there beforehand, lawyering. Advising not to talk to the police, getting bail, doing the discovery investigation, establishing chain of custody of evidence, examining witnesses under the oath of perjury, establishing motivation and intent, establishing mental competence at time of offense, comparing the complaint to precedent, determining if the complaint corresponds to an actual law, excluding inadmissible evidence, getting a jury trial, changing the jury trial to a less hostile venue, and so forth.

Any lawyer with a pulse would have done at least one of these things, but not a single one appears to have been done. Therefore their legal counsel was probably almost certainly impeded in some way. The judge appears to accept this impediment without blushing, so the bad counsel was probably planned. In other words, they are being railroaded.

I suspect the judge was sick and tired of 20 years of handing out wrist slaps at the behest of Parliament and their politically correct ministries and took the opportunity to land a few punches while the gloves are off. In other words, it is a continuation of the riots by other means.
Combine with the following:
1) Virtualization has made having excess boxes less of a necessity as opposed to even 3 years ago.

2) SaaS and other clouded operations have outsourced IT such that though knowledge workers are still in need, the machines are not.

3) The ongoing recession and latest government austerity trends are forcing the market in general to drop, as large government buyers are buying less.
I was also struck by the eye candy. Looks like they're using d3, with Isotope for animations. The projects' websites should get you started:

I'm talking about the title on your blog site, too.

It does for me, though. But again it's not important (to me).
Hey, Cletus -

Somewhat off-topic, but what's the rental situation like in Australia for those moving to the country? Are there substantial obstacles to a non-citizen resident like there are in other countries like Japan? My wife and I are planning a move, and this is something I've not been able to Google up very well.
I think this is all about public perception, they are doing this to convince the public they are now in control, despite the fact that most people involved in the riots are free. I would not be surprised if this is appealed and changed to a more reasonable sentence, in a few months, when people are more calm.

Hyperbole much?

Where was the general population when this was going on? Sitting at home watching TV. This is a big problem with society.
I agree with the last bit about big purchases, but surely it's not an absolute rule that applies to housing unquestioned. You will always have the cost of housing whether you rent or buy. There are more risks with buying, but if you are in a market where you pay a premium for renting, is there a point where that no longer makes financial sense? I think the real epidemic was that Americans were acquiring too much house, disguising the extravagance as an "investment." You can also rent too much house.
I never stuttered - it was more terrifying social anxiety. There was a time where my legs felt rubbery I literally quaked in anxiety when giving a talk.

While I'm no great orator, I'm a long way from that now.

Not trying to project on you - but one of the big realization I made throughout this is that the things that I despised and dreaded most were also the things I was bad at. I convinced myself that parties were stupid for a variety of reasons - but at the end of the day I hated them because I didn't know how to handle them. Once I learned some of the basics there I started enjoying myself, and hey, now I look forward to house parties.
So that's how it works now, eh? When a subject won't talk to you, just run your worst suspicion. If they don't go on the record after that, you must be right!
I think you nailed the TINY niche of things that amazon could take issue with and pull your site down. So now back to 99.9999999% of content producers on the internet: S3 is "extremely durable"

You are getting over excited. There are many opportunities to riot, that are not taken. This is no the "first tiny window of opportunity".

And once again, the police will cover up any wrong doing, close ranks, just as they did with Jean Charles de Mendez. This is not OK. This is not acceptable, for a police force to kill people, and hide. You can pretend that it has nothing to do with this, but all you will be doing is pretending to yourself to make yourself feel better.

Repeating the same wrong statement doesn't make it more true. You can make the absolute best cupcake in Chicago, but if you don't promote your business, it won't matter how far you discount them. Nobody's going to know you exist.

People persist in these weird economic analyses of "daily deals" sites as if they have anything to do with the economics of breakage or marginal cost. That's not the point of daily deals. The point of daily deals sites is that they're promotional channels, and that they're more effective than local advertising, which is a notorious black hole.

On more serious note, ruby is definitely better when it comes to richness of available libraries which is what node is missing. I think in real life node can handle more, I heard that issues with memory leaking are solved, probably uses less memory as well.
I agree with conclusion that both are more then capable or handling async problems, I would use event machine on ruby end, this whole example seems flawed a bit. Anyhow, thanks for posting your results.

Definitely a harsh ruling against her - but considering the legal system I doubt she'll spend any time in a prison cell.

Then there's a very touchy matter of wether you really want kids being brought up by a mother who clearly turns a blind eye to rioting / looting, and indirectly even partakes in criminal activity (knowingly handling stolen goods).
I like it, but I don't understand what you are saying about encryption:

"These emails are encrypted with military-grade algorithms, so you can be sure that no-one except the intended recipient will ever read them."

Aren't you able to read these messages? Aren't you going to be mailing my recipients plaintext? Aren't I sending all of these forms to you in plaintext (over http)?
Sociopath is a tough word because it means a lot of things and it really isn't used in clinical diagnosis. Based on the historical patterns though a sociopath was typically someone lacking any type of empathy, so they would do things hurt other people just to amuse themselves by watching the results. There is no where near enough information to diagnose sociopathy presented.

If you look at the Anti-Social Personality disorders, this may fall closer to a Cluster B - Histrionic. Which is what many people consider someone with "anger management" issues.

I agree with what I think is the intent of your post, that people with a personality disorder are suffering from something they may not have control of. However, I do think anger management issues are a disorder and are not of a kind with being "black" as there is no inherent disorder associated with being black.

I think that employers have a very real, and legitimate interest in not employing people with severe personality disorders, particularly if they are not under control or in treatment for the disorder. Even then, it doesn't make sense to put some people in a position where they can cripple your company if they are very upset over something.
An additional point is that in the US if you live in your home and owe money on it, your investment has significantly better leverage via the mortgage interest deduction.

> a) we are the most highly evolved organism on the planet

I know little about evolution and assume that bacteria are the most evolved because they have a faster cycle of reproduction, and stronger selective pressure.

> My amateur understanding is that most academics get that it's a simplifying assumption, but that a lot of other people treat it as a guarantee.

Most practitioners do understand that it is a simplifying assumption, and then ignore that fact, just as most engineers ignore quantum and relativity effects when calculating the required size of beams. The difference between the better and the simpler models is big enough to cause problems in economics.

I've worked (very recently) with some really horrible programmers..real phonies. It isn't ok, they deserve to get fired (quicker than they did), they are easy to spot, it's a major flaw that they got hired in the first place, and a bigger one that they stick around for months.

The satisfaction is that Groupon was using some pretty weird accounting measures to claim profitability, but was backed down to use usual accounting measures, which show they are scarily in the red.

The vast amount of advertising they've done probably didn't endear them to geeks, either.

Intuit founder's advice to entrepreneurs
Problem with this idea, is that a competitor will essentially reverse-engineer the high-end machine, duplicate it as close as possible and basically do 1/10 the work to get a similar or even better product out the door.

Unlike Apple, Dell doesn't own the OS, so there's no differentiation there. They also don't own any of the internal componentry so no control there either.

Intel and Microsoft have no real incentive or desire to prevent this kind of piggybacking from happening.

Ultimate result: Dell doesn't innovate in design, and goes for cheap, low-margin to compete where it can: price.
Well, everything scales based on size. Given a small input, the algo is more than likely still doable by hand.
I am often under the impression that many philosophers take linguistic constructions such as "meaning" and "morality" to be entities that can exist on their own, outside functioning brains, while on the other hand they claim to be materialists. They strive to find a way to make logic (syntax) produce meaning, forgetting that semantic meaning is all about context, emotion and behavior shaped by millions of years of evolution. Philosophers do care about complexity (they care about everything, it's their job), but their metaphors are always about metaphysics or notions of some kind of "x-liness" that, like an "elan vital" will give meaning to the soulless constructions of mathematics and physics (chinese room, waterfalls, qualia).

The paper gives numerous examples where a philosopher could use complexity theory, but doesnt go so far as to make any conclusions, thus showing that comp. complexity is actually useful for these problems.

Of course I agree that the UK riots were not the former, but I hope you see the problem with trusting the government to decide which one is which, and giving them special powers to punish people who riot (over and above the criminal acts of destruction that can already be punished under existing laws).

what a rubbish. The "p" isn't "known". The "p" is "known to be prime". Professional philosopher must be able to feel the difference.

But really, the same way I feel about Scrolls. Even considering the larger company size, and the higher revenue, and the longer life of the company. The only difference being Bethesda is going the extra mile and trying to monopolize a single word that is included within a group of words. The Elder Scrolls:(Insert subtitle here), while Apple is and always has been Apple. If I make a game or company called, Green Apple or Apple Smasher and Apple tries to sue me, I'm going to be using the same argument.

A protest about an unfortunate incident led to some people throwing stuff at the Police. This escalated.

Others then saw this as an opportunity to go looting in other towns.

Until they see a massive success?

Are we defining massive success as finding more investors to give them money or making money? Maybe as an employee the two are equivalent but as an investor you're really hoping for the latter.

> and we knew it all along

Agreed on this. Think of a tech company that doesn't exist, say DEC. Were they a success or a failure? The answer of depends on when you ask the question. Is Microsoft currently a success or a failure? What about 10 years from now?

It reminds me of the person in the gym who, circa 2001, declared he'd been "predicting the stock market would fall for years". :)
Agreed: I suspect that in the future virtually all writers will also write blogs (or the successor of blogs), along with miscellaneous other material designed to show that "Hey! I can at least write coherent sentences based on reasonable ideas."
It's less that no-one knows who _why is and more that good people everywhere don't bother to try to find out. The community is willing and able to support his preference to remain "anonymous".

I assume with enough Googling around you could figure out his given name, but I've never tried to do it. If you do find out his name or other personal information, please DON'T post it here. This thin veil of anonymity seems to be important to _why, and that's good enough reason for me.

It's kinda like the graffiti artist Banksy. It's not that it is impossible to track him down--he participated in a documentary about him and I think I've heard him interviewed on NPR before--but that those that could readily "out" him are willing to protect his privacy.
Patents are totally beyond me.

Supposedly there's a concept of "non-obviousness" but every patent that is disputed is strikingly obvious to a "person of ordinary skill in the art."

On a panel of 5 competent engineers, asked "How might we go about identifying potential credit card fraud on the Internet?" I suspect all 5 would independently bring up the idea of storing customer IPs and comparing that to IPs that have used that credit card in the past.

I can't help but feel like patent law is just a way for lawyers to extract money from people actually trying to make things.

This doesn't really explain why some of the brands with the most ardent fanboys are those that don't have a big presence marketing directly to consumers: say, Boeing vs. Airbus, or AMD vs. Intel. For the great majority who aren't particularly familiar with those industries, which brand someone identifies with doesn't tell us anything - what does it mean to be an Airbus fanboy rather than Boeing? Not being an aviation geek myself, I really don't know!
one should also note that even if we take a fantasist hypothesis of a major breakthrough demonstrating a loose of strength of 2 bits for AES-128 once a year during ten years, we would probably still have tens of years to replace the cipher. Of course this theory is full baseless hypotheses, but even more is the theory that would says that there is a risk of a major breakthrough tomorrow reducing the strength of AES-128 to 64-bits.

There is no need to hurry.
