I really disagree -- with unemployment any sense of additional worth you get from being able to hold down a job evaporates. Not to mention that having to keep to a schedule for a job is much healthier than the wacky hours you can end up with when you're unemployed and wake/sleep according to your natural schedule.
I checked and 10,000 adds can be dispatched to multicores and yield a time faster than single core. You must first compile the kernel with the "FastMP" option. This causes all cores to stay awake and not go into a HLT state. Because they are all awake, they need not be interrupted by the APIC during a job dispatch.

Makes sense. When you don't have a job, it's because you haven't lowered yourself to taking bad jobs, and because those idiots haven't discovered you yet. You still have your pride.

When you take a lousy job, you're admitting defeat, and diving into failure head first. You weren't discovered because you have nothing to offer, and now you don't even have your pride.

I've spent quite a bit of time with a Pre2 and a pre-production Pre3 (and a TouchPad, but you'll probably use that "we're talking about smartphones, not tablets" line on me). I'm not overly impressed with WebOS. It's sluggish and not that nice to look at. The development tools are outstanding, though.

WP7 ... was launched without a clipboard years after the iPhone had one and multi-tasking was introduced only in Mango.

The iPhone was launched years after the multitasking, clipboarding mobiles OSes Symbian, Windows Mobile, BB OS etc. Again, I'm not sure you have a point, other than feeling the need to express your bias.

I can tell you from my own experience it's orders of magnitude more practical to use (as in "less typing/swiping/touching) than either iOS or vanilla Android. The attention to every little detail is absolutely impressive and the "Just type" interface, simply brilliant.

FOR YOU. But people have different tastes. Sorry, I'd take iOS, Android, or WP7 over WebOS any day. It was a nice dream, but Palm has had 2 years to pan it out and they've failed. About the only thing I find brilliant is the app card switching and dismissing.

No WebOS smartphone or tablet has sold well. The Pre3 hardware is already outdated and it's not even out in the US yet.

You tend to share your thoughts quite a bit in the WP7 threads, so you have a pretty high interest in it. I assume you're considering switching over? ;)

What we have here folks is just another beautiful day in web hosting. The industry is rough at times and both sides, clients/companies sometimes need to step back, relax and hug it out. I would say most issues that erupt into something even a fraction of what this turned into is due to miscommunication between hosting provider and client. That or downtime. Server downtime causes even the sane person to lose it under the right conditions.

Samsung hires Android hacker Cyanogen ~ THN
This isn't about Google's bond-worthyness or financing corporate debt, but instead about their stock's perceived value. (The article talks about GOOG being rated "buy" versus "sell", not AAA or B which are bond terms.)

S&P ratings do affect how Google will run the business: If Google's stock takes a hit, employees get restless and are more likely to look elsewhere for employment. Employees aren't always long term focused in stock prices. Google could use this as an excuse to buy back their own shares to drive up value.
I read the whole thing buy out as extremely ominous. The size of motorola mobility (if I read it correctly) was larger than Google. It has the potential to destroy Google from a logistical stand point, tie it up in so much red tape that it can't survive... or worse becomes a lame duck like Microsoft is now.

Profit margins aside its extremely hard to join to companies together. Infact one of my friends from childhood is an HR consultant who specialises is assisting business merge.

You wouldn't believe the crap he's told me, lets say fraud is generally everyones first order of business. If its like at any other company the people at motorola aren't going to be very happy with this new position and will try and take its parent company for all its worth before moving to a better position.

I assume Google is going to start issuing commands and maybe merging or forcing joint teams with the R&D departments, thats going to make things very difficult at motorolas end. Productivity is going to decrease as communication issues arise. People at motorola will probably get annoyed at being dictated to, always being wrong for misunderstanding directives, and want to move on (like I said above will take Google for all they can while they do it). Theres a serious chance they will view Google as an ivory tower issuing commands whilst being out of touch of reality. Loyalty will plummet.

Google is in for pain. Serious HR pain. A company that hasn't got a good record of dealing with things like that. Thats going to cost A LOT of money to work through.

I am more inclined, as a rule, to hire self-taught programmers who have built something interesting over programmers with flashy degrees and little experience to back it up.
If Google really bought Motorola for the patents alone, we should expect massive layoffs as they wind down the phone manufacturing business.

If, as many have speculated, Google actually wants to follow Apple into the integrated software/hardware market, then this is a bet-the-company decision that will either see Google mired in a failed merger on the scale of AOL/Time Warner, or if successful it will provide a growth engine for the next decade and badly-needed diversification.

I think it's pretty hard to look at this deal purely from a technical analysis perspective, since no one except a handful of senior staff at Google really know what the plan is.

Seems like a better way to take care of yourself would be to get some exercise in this case. I bought one of those spinning gyro thingies for my wrist. I got them spinning pretty good but then I got elbow pain. Got more exercise and re-started supplements like chondroitin and glucosamine (these do wonders after a couple months) and now no pain. Should be able to do wrist exercises again soon.

I definitely support _why's ideas, particularly teaching programming to children. However, I couldn't stand the poignant guide. I actually tried to learn Ruby before Python (my favorite/best language now), but the style of the poignant guide deterred me from the language.

I wonder if sales of these devices are slow in part because of the OS it runs on. Everything cool in mobile seems to be either Android or iOS. If developers don't do webOS, there aren't going to be killer apps for it. And apps sell devices.
Customers are sometimes abusive, particularly on support lines. Anyone who works in a service industry needs to learn to deal with that. Even if they don't interact with customers, they should learn the people skills anyhow because really we all have "customers" - even if they are internal to the company.

On the other hand, at $3/mo, I'd say "this" could've gone ahead and terminated the hosting of the "painful" customers (keeping backups,) but only doing so at later date and with notice when everyone wasn't so fired up.

IMO their "technical director" also needs to be let go. Maybe not today, but after they've had a chance to get a new person trained but more importantly get their domains and accounts transferred into the company's (or its owner's) name. The TD has demonstrated that he's over-reactive. If kept with the company, there's the risk that he further damages the company in the future (even with him being isolated away from customers). If he's let go, there's the risk of overreacting and damaging the company in other ways.

Now I disagree with excessive socialism, and sure, refusing unemployment benefit would be one way of making a statement against it, but I think living it up on the generous unemployment benefit, and lording it in front of hard-working, voting taxpayers is also a useful method of encouraging positive social change.
Could you elaborate a little on why Jules' blog post was bad?

It seemed completely straight-up. "X happened, Y happened, Z happened". Whether or not we agree with their decision, it seems like a good (for us) thing to hear the full sequence of events.
> We gave them a month to find another service provider, but there was no way we would allow them to remain a customer after that.

That is exactly the right way to handle the situation and, in my opinion, does not contradict what gfunk said. If you were to simply cut off a client, no notice, for no other reason except you don't like them -- that's not right.
Possibly the biggest motivation for porting Plan 9 was that it provides a very light-weight yet featureful kernel. Linux is way too big, but the compute node kernels IBM and Cray have been coming up with may be too simple. Plan 9 provides a rich environment but doesn't demand much of the environment.

And yes, Fortran 77 can be quite efficient... but on the other hand, we're also seeing a lot of new software being written in Python, which (at least according to our process traces) tries to open thousands of non-existent files on startup. So efficiency isn't everything they care about... it's partly that they were used to Fortran, and now they're used to Python, and something scarily new like Plan 9 is, well, scary.

Oh, and good luck trying to convince people that MPI isn't necessarily the only solution for parallel programming. If the community at large has its way, we'll still be using Linux and MPI in 2040.

I think for tooling around in SF on mostly 1-2 mile rides with lots of stop and go, the advice works well, but that's not what I can give advice on.

For the 10-mile-one-way mostly suburban regular commutes I used to ride, I second the road bike. I originally started riding on a hybrid and switched to a pure road bike, and I picked up major speed. The ride quality difference didn't matter much, as I was already lifting up a bit out of my seat over bumpy asphalt.

My commute is now 1.5 miles and I use a scooter. Southeastern summer weather makes biking any more than a few blocks an exercise in getting drenched in sweat, which is not really worth the shower and change.

You might consider product management or product marketing. Both require high technical aptitude, but then you specialize around what the hard core programming folks aren't doing. Product managers spend a lot of time on competitive research/analysis, requirements generation/ aggregation/ prioritization, etc, and help validate (or not) potential market fit. Product marketing as well is invaluable to help translate the 'magic' programmers create and the technical/strategic 'vision' into the words and programs that get people or companies to use the product - make it compelling in the language of the target market. And sometimes you do both as the 'product' guy (you get one or the other title above, but ultimately do both).
This is true. The CEO of Motorola Mobility came on a conference call with us (here at Motorola in Beijing) and told us that they didn't really know much more than we did, and to stay tuned. They have told us to "refrain from gossip or speculation", as the deal is still very fresh and far from closed.

I've never liked wrist braces. Much better, in my opinion, to exercise and not bash your wrists up with too much programming.

If my mousing wrist does ever get sore, I have a Logitech Marble trackball that I use until any pain goes away. Motrin can also be your friend to reduce inflammation.

I've also recently switched from a somewhat mushy Apple clear keyboard to one of the aluminum and chiclet metal ones. Seems ok so far, and pretty close to a laptop feel.
For using it as a laptop/computer, the display width is a limitation. At 320x240, that's 53 chars along the 320 edge. 80 chars would be ideal for an xterm (which larger phones can do, with 480x320). Do you think it's usable as an xterm (with a plug in keyboard)?

Not to mention your sense of self-image if you get turned down for positions again and again. I disagree with you though on waking and sleeping on your natural schedule--it seems like that should be the healthier option.

Though I think the issue here is one of immediate happiness vs. reflective happiness. If you have a bad job, at least 8 hours of your day are spent not liking your current situation. (But at least you have a job, can feed the family, etc.) If you're unemployed, your day-to-day life may be less stressful without those 8 hours of teeth-grinding and you get to hang out with your cat a lot more. (But you can't get a job, your kids are going hungry, whatever.) Going from depressed unemployment to a crappy job is worse though, I think because it makes you miserable day-to-day and reflectively too for a while, since you still haven't gotten over your unemployment depression.

Happiness is strongly correlated with income up until $60k or so, then it levels off. If the crappy job is also low-income that just makes things worse.
How do you use your touchpad?

I'm wondering this because I might be using the keyboard and touchpad in a different way than others, but naturally for me, as in: the path of least resistance.

For scrolling, my right forearm points at the touchpad in a 45 degree angle, my middle finger touches the pad and I move my whole hand at the wrist to scroll. So all the middle finger does is touch the pad and raise again.

I use my right index finger for pointing. To move the cursor up & down I do the same as for scrolling, only with my index finger. For left & right I do what would look like pushing a marble to move the cursor left and the reverse to move it to the right. So my index finger really points (mostly) to the left side (depending on forearm position) and expands in it's natural path.

Regarding heavy keyboard use you often hear about the emacs pinky when somebody over years strenuously used their pinky to hold the control key down.
Well, I've noticed that I press control with the finger nail of my pinky and alt with the nail of my thumb. I'm sure it's unusual and it looks a bit funny, but it's completely natural to me and not strenuous at all.

I wonder how you do those things differently.
Also, the culture here is much different. In fact, two different people on two separate occasions on the three monotonous conference calls we've had on the acquisition have asked how it could "possibly work." We don't have slides or teeter-totters or 20% time or any of that nonsense. Everyone here is about a massive amount of procedural discipline, huge timeframes for projects, and that's all they know.
THE VERDICT: Google-Motorola Will Be A Colossal Disaster*
I've always wondered how valid the 'apps sell devices' theory is. In the 80s/90s, I think it had merit as you bought a computer for the capabilities provided by the apps. But I look at the apps on my phone (WP7) and with the exception of games, a fitness tracker and some photo editing apps, I don't have anything that couldn't be run in the browser. I'd go so far to say that I often find myself on a web page and then realize that I've got an app that does offers the same functionality.

Browser, email, maps, media player are the killer apps, and every device has them. I think games is the downfall of some devices.

Blackberry Playbook not having an email client, that I would call an app that would prevent a sale, but does anybody really look at the app catalog and say to themselves "if it hasn't got angry birds, I'm not buying it"?

I actually think it's somewhat unlikely that Apple will add this, due to their deprecating quitting.

They don't want you think about quitting applications at all, they want to hide that under the rug.

Making quitting more explicit (like this app) seems to do the opposite of that.
