ouch, the downvotes! for posterity let me note here that, in fact, I really did have to clean vt220 keyboards with alchohol wipes every week when working in the comp. lab. I have very fond memories of the vt220 despite this ignoble responsibility. Not germane enough to the conversation but anyone that spent time on a real terminal will hopefully relate.
Add chord charts, and I'll be a regular user. The existing tab/chord sites are just as bad as the lyrics sites for spamminess and nasty Flash ads (they're the one site I use regularly that leads me to want to install AdBlock).
How does this compare with the technology in the Nintendo 3DS?

The guy who made the site is a Redditor. People where complaining about not having a good image host so he made one. I think that site generates a lot of income for him.
This looks interesting. I prefer the (even more) minimalist design of OP's site, but lyrics automatically loading makes this one a winner (for the time being).
What about the massive protests and national strike this week?
You make a good point. Execution is just as crucial to Apple's success as the good taste.

Palm and HP never had much success because they couldn't execute on the hardware front. They were continually behind the curve on hardware and continued to push an unpopular form factor. As a former Pre user, webOS was a pleasure to use but the phone itself was poorly made and had dated hardware.

HP/Palm was always too little, too late and they just couldn't execute.

Apple's excellent supply chaining and fabrication processes are a huge edge against the competition. They can execute where other's can't.
Don't forget about `cut -f1` though!

Of course anything more complex than that, but not requiring the complexity of Perl/Ruby is generally best still done with Awk. In my world, that is a lot.

A great idea - I have a real need for this and loathe absolutely loathe the experience on existing sites. No idea how you turn this into a business though.

A bigger, happier font and bigger text search box would be easier and nice

I tried searching for 'Que Cera' which the definitive version was that performed by Doris Day, surely, as evidenced by first results on google, wikipedia etc.. however your results were hannah montana (twice?) and a bunch of other folks singing songs not necessarily including the words 'Que Cera' in not including the 'definitive' version of this song.

One of the other things I hate about the existing lyrics sites is that they often get it wrong.. for instance for a favorite song of mine transforming the lyric 'its not a race' to 'it is a race' (which kinda is the whole point of that song). Reliability would be a reason I'd go back to a site I trust.

One of the other things I hate about the existing lyrics sites is that they can't be relied on.

Reliability would be a reason I'd go back to a site I trust.
"Mostly chains of sort, uniq, sed, tr, comm and friends."

Awk wasn't invented for lack of those things, Awk was invented to supplement those things. And for that purpose it is every bit as relevant today as it ever was.

P.S. Properly formatted, that awk line is perfectly sensible. I don't see what your issue here is.

Yeah, his one client rule is really particular to his situation, not people doing this full time.
I could take a few more minutes to use something that makes me not have to worry about CSV edge cases, or I could just recognize that those cases don't apply to me, throw together an awk line in 20 seconds, and get to the pub early and get a pint or two down before my buds show up.

Who cares about what is better on paper? I have a life to live.

I am curious because you have some very definite opinions about it, and they are quite different to what I have observed in my Yoga practise.

I've read some pretty bad reviews about WGU and their competency based model as well as the alienation of students from anything close to a real educational institution. From what I heard you're asked to read a book answer a few questions and thats it. Something more of a diploma mill

There are no all-inclusive class interactions where student inputs and discussions come into play. The best you get is a mentor or sort who calls you once in a while to ask 'how do you like WGU, have you had any problems so far? Answer 'yes and he'll ask you to continue reading the recommended books because the answers are hidden somewhere in there.
This may not be the best occasion to discuss that, but I've always thought that a decentralized (maybe P2P) version of twitter in which free speech could not be denied by a central entity would be awesome.

I'm tired of telco monopolies.

It should either be a proper utility run by the government or a free market company that doesn't get government granted monopoly to certain areas.

A government run telco would pretty much serve the same purpose as the postal service. The big brother aspect isn't appealing, but it I think internet and phone is similar to power, roads, and water. Critical infrastructure shouldn't be controlled by a handful of monopolies.

STOP CENSORING MY COMMENTS YOU FAGGOT ASS PISS NAZI HITLER JEW-HATING COCKSUCKER
I find that any argument along the lines of "Oh goodness, it's [YEAR] for crying out loud" is generally rubbish. Not always, but often enough that I've noticed the correlation.

I know Perl, I know Ruby, I know Brainfuck and I know Awk. I'm also not a masochist. I don't use Brainfuck but I use the hell out of Awk. Myself and other Awk users like 4ad here aren't using Awk because we're crazy, we've calculated effort/rewards/tradeoffs and come upon a solution.

I find people suggesting that others should or should not use various tools to be incredibly condescending. In doing so you are effectively refusing to recognize others as your peers. If you're Dijkstra and everyone around you has a hardon for GOTO, then be my guest, but you are not.
Well, not even. Facebook Check-in deals launched in Australia, with KFC being a big partner. It was expected that the average store would see 150 people redeem the deal a week when in reality each store would be lucky to get 1 a day, most being from KFC staff.
As long as all these complicated mechanisms don't fail to close-up-shop when you need them to.

I would much prefer a normally-closed house that requires complex mechanisms to stay open and on failure, resorts to lock-down.
Well props to you for truthfulness. I don't think anyone is rubbishing the PM personally.

I was reading the Progress Principle today. It makes the point that setbacks have an outsized influence on one's mental makeup - much more than progress does. Check it out.

What corruption leads to is a set of daily setbacks to individuals. On the one hand the govt says this problem is impossible to solve. On the other the protestors say they have researched the issue and here is a way to solve it.

Which one do you pick and support ? It's a no contest to me.

I may have been ambivalent in April. But now in Aug, seeing that the govt has watered down their version of the bill so much that their lokpal won't even accept allegations of corruption from the general public ... it is clear they have a vested interest in maintaining the status quo. That made me more interested in the topic and I read the bill and both sides of the argument. My conclusion is that this is the chance to grab. Even if it reduces corruption by a few percentage points it will be a victory, and will release energy for the tasks that you mention so urgently need to get done.
Give it some time and the Canadian housing market will also correct itself. Same for Australia where the situation is very similar to Canada's (i.e., asset appreciation bubble largely driven by a commodities boom).

As in most things, the Americans are just ahead of the curve. And as a Canadian who lived in Southern California from 2006 to end of 2010, I think our friends there who were finally able to afford to buy a house after the housing bubble burst would dispute your conclusion that the US housing market is "terrible".

Dillo would be the smallest but Opera would be the best for features per KB of RAM.

I would personally use Dillo because it just seems more suited to the environment and would fulfill it's purpose (looking up documentation) without crippling the system.

If you wanted to just browse the internet though I think Opera or Chrome would both be good choices. Especially if you used a minimal GUI.
I've been there, haha.
Unlike Raphaël or its predecessor library Protovis (http://mbostock.github.com/protovis/), D3 uses SVG as the graphical representation.

This is more verbose, but is actually really powerful, because there's no translation between what your code is doing and what the browser is using to display your graphics. You can do anything SVG can do in your visualizations, and it is much easier to debug.

Back in 1997 when I and three others ran a record label called Jeepster, we had a few great bands on our label: Belle & Sebastian, Salako and Snow Patrol. (OK, Snow Patrol were less than great then, and perhaps now.)

One of the things I figured I should make was a web site in which fans were able to communicate with each other, the theory was simply that:

1) If fans kept the interest high between releases they'd be there still when we came with a new release

2) If someone was looking for a lyric or something they'd heard and we helped them find it, we might convert a stray passer-by into a fan

So I built something that you'd now call a crowd-sourcing site.

For every track, people could submit:

* Lyrics

* Mis-hearings

* Personal memories the lyrics evoke

* Interpretations/Understanding of the Lyrics

* Tablature for different instruments

All of which were votable so that the best tablature rose to the top, but others (perhaps harder ones) were still available.

It was highly compelling, you came for the lyrics but stayed for the personal memories and insight.

As a label we felt it was hugely successful. It definitely paid back in keeping the interest of fans, increasing that interest and creating new fans.

It worked so well that NME nominated us for best web site in their awards ceremony in early 2000 because they'd never seen a site in which the content was mostly created by fans and that the fans loved.

I left the label in 2000 to do other things. The system ticked over for a while, but the label never replaced me with another technically inclined person and when they wanted to change the styling of the song system they broke the PERL script and left it broke before taking it offline. Such a shame really.

Since then, whenever I look up lyrics, I've wondered why there isn't a comprehensive crowd-sourcing of all of the information around a song in the same vein that I did it, but including things like when it's been performed live or recorded in radio sessions. A real database about a song, what it means, who's covered it, how to play it, what it means.

The business model would be to sell stuff related to the song, affiliate fees for MP3 downloads and CD sales, affiliate link for the purchase of the official tablature books. Keep it simple, and keep adverts off of it. A wikipedia solely for songs and everything about a song.

The cost per transaction and storage is incredibly low as it's just text. And you could probably negotiate with publishing companies as right now they don't even get credit for this stuff let alone increased opportunity to sell what they have.

The PERL script in 1997 wasn't more than a simple thing that used flat files as a database for the 200+ tracks we'd released to then. Nowadays, for the complexity we're talking about, a weekend project in Django would suffice as a first pass. The hardest thing is just talking to the publishers, but truly, it's not as hard as some people imagine, there are fewer publishers than there are record labels.
I've never seen the model work before where you "don't even need to think about what's running on the client or server." I like features like sharing code (same language) and easy transport (serializable data structures), but frameworks that blur the client/server distinction usually download all of your code, or none of it, or little snippets on demand, or some other strategy that's worse than a manual distinction.

There are two things here. For prototyping, Opa will automatically decide what goes to the client and what goes to the server. We are very much aware that this may not yield the best performance. So, when you move from prototyping to optimization, using your knowledge of the application security policy, you can add security hints that the compiler will use to optimize client-server placement, knowing that this does not break the policy. And finally, if you want even better control, you can annotate any piece of code to instruct the compiler to place it on the client, or on the server, or both. In any case, the compiler will inform you if the set of constraints you put has no solution.

Tons of dependencies (a personal gripe). Coming from the Java world, where lots of things like reading images are built-in, it's comical to see that Opa requires Java, AND libjpeg and a dozen other things (it doesn't actually run on the JVM I don't think).

I concur that the dependencies are a (minor) annoyance. Just one point: Java is used only to build Opa from source. More precisely, during Opa compilation, we run the (very nice) Java-based Google Closure Compiler as a measure of the quality of our JavaScript libraries. If I recall correctly, that build step is optional, too.
Peers? He ends by comparing Jobs to oil executives. Oil companies are ridiculously subsidized by the US government in many ways, the most egregious being the use of the military to secure major pipelines at the cost of trillions of dollars and many lives. Those subsidies end up not-so-indirectly as the compensation for said executives. Apple is a company that takes raw materials and ideas and manufactures some of the most desirable products in the world. If everyone wants to give him their money of their own free will, what's the problem? Oil companies don't give you a choice. Even before purchasing a single drop of gas, each American has literally given them tens of thousands of dollars by way of taxes and the deficit. They are vilified for a reason. Just because they have similar orders of magnitude of money doesn't mean that the same moral judgements need to be made of them.

The whole article is a disingenuous troll piece.

Another example is the initial appeal to the universal hatred of software patents. Yes, IP laws are horrible when it comes to software, but it is ridiculous to claim that Apple's riches are dependent on them. The author is grasping to associate Jobs with the standard "evils."

Just adding to this, the same thing goes for Norway...our home prices are far above the historical average when looking at average income and price growth. You'd typically pay somewhere around 8x anual salary to buy a home, and prices are still growing really quickly.

There isn't consensus that there is a bubble in the housing market, but some economists have produced detailed and convincing analyses that this is in fact the case. The price growth has been fueled by low interest rates, immigration and low construction rates due to bureucracy.

Eventually, our technology will be a strict superset of the of the technology included in the 3DS:

See this reddit post. http://www.reddit.com/r/technology/comments/hmjej/how_the_3d...

Specifically, look at the first comment and its reply:

zz33ke: But why does it make me dizzy and nauseous?

joatmon3: The 3D effect makes it look like it's popping out at you, but the image is still actually on the screen (where your eyes have to focus), so the difference between where your brain says the image is and where your eyes are focusing causes many people to get dizzy and nauseous.

--

As joatmon3 says, the parallax barrier technique (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallax_barrier) can provide binocular parallax, but it does not provide the depth information required for a viewer to focus their eyes on each virtual object.

Our prototype will do both.

When a character seems to do pop out at you, it will be both because of a parallax barrier providing different images to your two eyes, but also because a lens in front of that screen is adjusting the focus distance of that part of the screen. That way, when your eyes try to focus on the virtual object's virtual distance, that is the optical distance at which the screen will be sharp.
