Of course, the Impact Factor is a new evolving measure too. But I think it's only harder to hack, as it needs social hacking skills.

On an institutional level, some journals already have slightly-hush-hush semi-official gaming policies in place. Since citations from a journal's articles to its own back issues count when computing the impact factor, a common practice is to "suggest" to authors several relevant citations from back-issues of the journal to insert. Suggesting relevant citations is a longstanding practice, of course, but some journals now devote time to systematically finding self-citations to the journal itself, and suggesting them to (almost) every author, as a way of upping its impact factor. Journal grey-hat SEO, perhaps.
Yes, until I integrate code with others that use '^_^', or '<8)' or ... ad infinitum. An easy to type self explanatory name would help a lot.

Yes, and that is something that ought to be illegal too.

Whether you're a bad person or not is not for me to say, you can make that judgment for yourself. Personally I would refuse to build such a feature and likely it would cost me my job. Then someone else, maybe you, would step in to do it anyway. So in the end my resistance would amount to 'nothing'. But I'd sleep a lot better because of that, as long as you don't lose sleep over it you're doing fine.

We all get to make these decisions on an individual basis.
I'm very wary of a system like this. It's not working so well in California, for example, where - although its more complicated than this, obviously - the basic end result is that the people keep voting for low taxes, but also more services, and the ring-fencing of parts of the budget.
And Peter Hallam, original J#/C# compiler dev lead, IIRC.

It's like an ex-MSFT .NET party over there!
well '^_^' and '<8' are illegal identifiers, so that can't happen
I understand the appeal of using json, but it doesn't support hyperlinks. There really ought to be a hyperlink datatype as part of the json standard, with the same attributes that html supports: a label, href, rel, maybe more. The label is human-readable, and rel is machine-readable; both provide the semantic information that
identifies what the link is for. The url is given by href, of course.

Not having this datatype is a big drawback of json for RESTful responses. That's why I typically design APIs to use xhtml responses instead. They're just as parsable (just a big bit slower) but they're richer and they allow the API to be tested with a browser that has no knowledge of the semantics of the API. I consider the ability to use the API using a generic client to be a good test of properly implementing HATEOAS.

None at hand -- but I do think the Wikipedia page for brand is an interesting read.[1] It has a section on branding approaches and unlike a lot of articles I found on a quick 15 minute Google just now it's refreshingly dry and hype-free.

Having said that about articles, I think for every method that people claim is the "perfect way to come up with a brand", there's a story of brands that became established but had origins that didn't involve mindmapping, brainstorming, SEO tests, research groups and the like. Two examples from the UK, one now a little faded: Amstrad, which is just AMS Trading shortened, AMS being the initials of Lord Sugar, and Virgin, which one of Richard Branson's early employees suggested because none of them had a lot of experience of running a business.

Go for a walk and one might pop into your head. You never know! If you're in NZ as your username suggests (?) then you certainly have the scenery for inspiration :-)

Another tip for automated cronjobs is if a job is going to go over the time (IE: if you have it running every hour and it might run over an hour) use a file lock to make sure they won't run at the same time.
I recently joined a startup that has the same policy. Unlimited sick days as well.

Everyone at the company is so new, though, that there's really date to see how it's working.

But I can tell you one thing. I'm feeling much better working for the company compared to the previous job where we had no sick days (I spent half my vacation days taking care of sick kids, or myself getting sick due to sick kids) despite the fact that the owner made a PERSONAL income of $2B from the company. I know that even if my kids get their usual winter time flus and colds, I still have actual vacation time left after taking time off to take care of them.
I would heartily disagree. As an example, reading about Vector Clocks by Lamport had an immediate effect on how I thought about a real-world problem, and it has stayed with me since.

My first reading of "GOTOs considered harmful" led to the phase of my career where I was all about structured programming. (For s perspective, much HLL programming then was in fortran with the three-branch IF-statement.)

Admonitions to do stuff like re-read "Out of the Tar Pit" every six months is just bad advice to my mind. It's a good way to convince yourself you're smarter than everyone else. It's a bad way to get better at debugging. The very best way to get better at debugging is to not put bugs there in the first place. The Tar Pit paper is one step in that direction. And it is important to keep at that because our habits keep trying to put state in.

So while it sounds like you are saying "get your inspiration from reading bad code", I suspect that you don't really mean that.
Originality would be a big one for me, these big studios tend to make very safe bets on stories that the know will have broad appeal, meaning we see the same stuff again and again.

The other one is 3D, not sure what the situation is like in America but the sooner that the 3D and 2D ticket prices become about the same the better. Feels like so many movies that either don't need 3D or 3D really hurts the movie are in 3D just to make more per ticket. I find myself seeking out the non 3D sessions for a lot of films.

I mostly agree, and I didn't feel particularly poor when I was a grad student making $24k/yr either. That was $24k with health insurance, though, which is probably another $5k value if I'd had to buy similar insurance privately. Also, I didn't have a big-screen TV, dishwasher, washing machine, or dvr, though I did have a cell phone, internet access, and refrigerator.

Sad to hear that these schemes are used to broadly in business. But not just the business but also from a human side I ve often been left disappointed.

I had my bubble as 12 yr old burst about the innoncence of TV / Media when I was with my parents at some Restaurant that had a big playground. There was a TV shooting in that playground for some Fundraiser of a Down Syndrom Suffering Child.

I just remember standing next to the camera who was having a cigarette break a bit on the side from the family, and he said (more or less, I was 12) to his colleage " Ok, just one final shot of the spastic running into the parents open arms. Always a classic shot to raise money".

Because I see them as terrorists who are coming closer and closer each day to depriving me, and ordinary citizen, of my rights and freedoms. And each attack they make, they are solidifying their position as criminals and losing the argument that they are protectors of our freedoms.

"3. Copyright Bullshit" - this is a US specific problem, not a film business wide problem, as copyright laws change by country. It could also be viewed as a good thing for producers in the film business, as they can profit off their films longer.

Unfortunately, anything the US does on this front, others will follow. The media giants very much prefer internationally consistent copyright laws, and they have the power to lobby the US government to exert considerable political pressure on other countries. It's not just the lobbiers themselves we have to worry about here in the Euroland.

The very best way to get better at debugging is to not put bugs there in the first place.

You realize how terribly naive this is, right? Everyone, no matter how smart, not matter how experienced, and no matter how many papers they read, is going to put giant whoppers of idiocy into their code on a regular basis. And finding these is where we spend all our time.

Your answer is an echo of the blog post: you're acting as if the act of writing code is the thing that needs optimization. It's not, though maybe it seems that way early in your career. Code (successful code, anyway) lives long after it's written, and that phase is vastly more expensive. And papers don't help there. Sorry, but they don't.

Read the papers, they're good. But stop pretending that they're the path to enlightenment. Our profession, ultimately, isn't about enlightenment. It's about results.

Numerically, yes, but nobody calls it a "zeroth" floor. Rather, its "ground", "first", "second" (or G, 1, 2, 3...) so while ground is equivalent to zero, nobody actually says (or thinks) zero. At least, nowhere I've been.
XML doesn't support hyperlinks either. In fact, that was my point. JSON or XML are not formats, just transport mechanisms. You need a format (which may be encoded in JSON or not) that defines those semantics.

Walk in any public place (tube, business lounge, bus, whatever) and look at what people are using... You'll see a lot of macs, iPods, iPhones and iPads. On the laptop side, it's not quite such a clear win, but about 50% of the people in a typical business lounge are using Macs. On the phone side, I'd say it's about the same. On the tablet side, I've yet to see someone actually using something other than an iPad to do work. On the music player side, it's easy to see that again, more than 50% of people listening to music are using an iPod (if they haven't upgraded to the iPhone).

Mendeley [1] does some of what you're talking about. Primarily it's a way to organize your own collection of papers and access them from native or web apps on various devices. It also has some social features, like connecting users with similar interests and sharing tags on papers.

Its "Computer and Information Science" category [2] lists the papers with the most "readers" which I think in this case means "Mendeley users who have added this paper to their collection". Its most read paper in that category is the MapReduce paper [3]. Oddly, as I look at it now, I don't see a feature for rating or commenting on the paper, which could be a useful addition.

Of course, the authoritative method of rating papers is citations of other papers, right? That's what led to PageRank after all, and most of the main sites for finding papers have used citation counts for a long time.

Well, the most important item is not on this list: Hollywood doeant have a frigging clue about what makes a film successfull (except some obvious metrics, like big names, that anyone can think about), they're completely divorced from the audxience reality. There are many movies that become blockbusters to the great suprise of producers and vice versa, despite the many preview audience screenings, market research, etc. I don't know of any other industry that shares this characteristic.

With top-notch video camears as low as $2-3K now, I'm forever expecting a DIY movie explosion, which never happens. People explain this as "it' difficult to shoot,edit, etc. a movie" which is true but I think the much bigger factor is the stronghold these companies have on distribution.
You need to remember that Apple decides to avoid certain markets (want a laptop less than $1000? Apple won't sell it to you). Also, sales do not equal profit.

I think Apple is hugely successful, both in terms of selling computers to individuals (Vast majority of Apple sales are above $1000, Apple has a 90% market share of retail PCs sold that are above 90% [1]) And they are hugely profitable [2].

The problem with trying to regulate every type of driving impairment is that you can't be exhaustive (alcohol, cell phones, sleep deprivation, medication, talking to a passenger... where does it end?). The better way to handle it is to simply increase the civil/criminal penalty for reckless driving generically, as all of the examples fall into this category.
