0. The logo is way too big. Make it smaller. At least 50% smaller. This way people can have more of their screen estate used for reading the news and not for your logo.
1. Remove the underline from all text. It makes the text harder to read.
2. Add a sans serif font.
3. I love the spartan feel of the website, but you can add some color to it. For instance the 3 categories of news could each have a different color. (btw, choose colors which match)
4. Make the links a bit bigger. The text is way to small. I know I could zoom in but then the proportions just don't feel right.

Other than that, it looks alright.

Good luck

sounds interesting, but I think one problem will be the number of shareholders are often limited. You may run into issues like the differences between public/private companies. Did you think of how you might solve that?

There's simply no reason to think VIM is complicated or hard to learn at all :)

There's a better looking but less information dense cheatsheet here.

I have it printed and taped to the window in the office.
That's very cynical reasoning. You can extend that and say everything is good enough. Why bother programming at all?

And since when did innovation become about preserving the status-quo? It's exactly the opposite of it.
> I think there was an attempt by early humans to make words have as less syllables as possible to simplify communication

There doesn't seem to be any common-accepted definition of what a word is, especially across difference languages. See
Martin Haspelmath's 2010 paper at www.eva.mpg.de/lingua/staff/haspelmath/pdf/WordSegmentation2010.pdf His abstract:

'''The general distinction between morphology and syntax is widely taken for granted, but it crucially depends on the notion of a cross-linguistically valid concept of "(morphosyntactic) word". I show that there are no good criteria for defining such a concept. I examine ten criteria in some detail (potential pauses, free occurrence, mobility, uninterruptibility, non-selectivity, non-coordinatability, anaphoric islandhood, nonextractability, morphophonological isiosyncrasies, and deviations from biuniqueness), and I show that none of them is necessary and sufficient on its own, and no combination of them gives a definition of "word" that accords with linguists' orthographic practice. "Word" can be defined as a language-specific concept, but this is not relevant to the general question pursued here. "Word" can be defined as a fuzzy concept, but this is theoretically meaningful if the continuum between affixes and words, or words and phrases, shows some clustering, for which there is no systematic evidence at present. Thus, I conclude that we do not currently have a good basis for dividing the domain of morphosyntax into "morphology" and "syntax", and that linguists should be very careful with cross-linguistic claims that make crucial reference to a cross-linguistic "word" notion.'''

Inflation does not mean creation of new money. This usage of inflation has become obsolete with the end of the gold standard.

Inflation is by definition a rise in price levels, usually measured by the CPI (whose definition is sometimes subject to debate, but no measure of price levels is perfect; the important thing is to choose one that's reasonable and then stick to it).

Inflation, i.e. a rise in price levels, can then cause an increase of money supply measures, as producing firms take on larger amounts of credit to finance their operations, and this leads to a (rather weak, and only valid over the long run) correlation of inflation and growth of money supply. There are also tertiary effects that can cause both inflation and growth of money supply (such as excessive government deficits). But it's important not to confuse those things.

ooh ooh holy war, let me try!

more like emacs(ucks!)
There is more to security than hardening your code. For example, I assume you have some sort of master/root/admin level account on your own website. Are you using the same password as your email account? Do you use a third party email account? Do you have a 'forgot my password' feature? Here's an attack vector: I get read access to your gmail account, then I use the 'forgot my password' feature to change your password and I have then rooted your site.

From the web application & OS level everything is fine. No-one has compromised anything, the web application has performed exactly as required, since the admin user has just logged in normally.

There's also social engineering attacks, could I get you to open a certain webpage that I control? What will that tell me about your web browser? Does that give me control of your heroku server?

If users wanted to they could declare 'throws TheirParticularRuntime' all the way up the stack and it would work like checked exceptions, right?

Gruber, before the Motorla acquisition:

"I never said it wasn’t OK for “Google to try and buy the same patents to not be sued.” Apple, Google, Microsoft, Oracle — they’re all playing the game. If Google had won the Nortel patents, and used those patents to secure licensing agreements for other patents (from, say, Microsoft and Apple) — that’s how the patent game is played. What I’m complaining about isn’t Google playing the game, but rather their insistent whining about their competitors only after they lost the game."

http://daringfireball.net/2011/08/more_on_google_and_patents

And again:

"But what exactly does Google need to defend against, if not actual patents Android actually violates?"

http://daringfireball.net/2011/08/google_patently_absurd

Summary:
But now that Google has patents to "play the game", it's no longer OK to sue Apple for "actual patents it actually violates". Why? Because the patents aren't first hand. Google is - quite obviously - evil.

The thing is, Gruber does this all the time, more so when it's Google he's talking about. His shape-shifting argument game is almost always played by linking to pieces whose central tenets are at odds with his own posts, cherry-picking some seemingly damning argument, and then adding a snide comment on top.

Go back and trace his arguments regarding Android from beginning to see this in action.

Gruber comes up with analytical, insightful stuff on a regular basis, probably more so than other tech commentators, but you also have to endure dross like this.

Fatal: NOT_ENOUGH_FINGERS (10 found 15 required)
Household brands like Twitter, Google, Nike, Zara, Walmart, Ford and KPMG will IMHO pay. This is not binary, it is a continuum. Will TechCrunch buy theirs? Will AirBnb, Path or Zaarly?

It is a risk decision for these businesses.

For a relatively small amount of money companies are removing the potential brand and legal cost risk of not owning their .xxx. The more important your brand the more likely you will be to pay.

I totally agree with you that this is 'extortion', but just because it may not be right, doesn't mean we won't be affected by it.
Congratulations. In the same boat so know how it feels. Good job on pushing it out of the door.

C'mon, that was a joke. It was meant to illustrate how trivial an operation you can run and still have OSX pull you up on it.

Basically, anything you do that alters the computer in any way causes it to complain at you. I'm looking for the setting where you can say "yes, seriously, I'm admining. leave me alone."

On the command line, you get sudo, which remembers your password for a while after you've entered it. As far as I can tell, there's no equivalent for OSX, so installing a single piece of software can involve half a dozen password prompts.
Which OSes were these? XP, Vista, 7 is too small a sample size to see a pattern. 95 and NT were too different platforms entirely that weren't merged until XP.

And until XP they had a nasty habit of not doing updates on the consumer OS. ie. 95 and 95B, 98 and 98SE.

美髮用品
I started out vim, with bare minimum commands but later on went to emacs. With emacs I have an option M-x tab auto complete In case I don't get to remember something. I would like to know what are vim equivalents of this?

Some how I feel deep down inside that vim was not designed bottom for this kind of complexity. I mean to say when you want to design something to scale you have to clearly decide what goes into the core and what can be added using a extension system. Although I understand the spirit behind the use cases for vi when it was first invented to light weight. Now when you decide to stick to minimalism you must be consistent to that philosophy. When you violate that, you go on bolting stuff on top of it which doesn't belong there. The net result is a huge bloat of things which make usability too complex. Besides I only can commit so many things to memory.

One look at this cheat sheet made my head spin. Every time I fire up a editor to write code, I need brain space to think about the problem at hand. I can't afford to context switch between looking a up a sheet of command to do editor work. Which in case even Notepad will turn up to be more useful than this.

If someone has a better way to doing this I would be more than happy to learn. I keep hearing a lot of vim these days, and want to learn it too. But everytime I face the uphill task of memorizing something, I just drop it and go on to do something else.
You should really check Opa, which has been discussed several times here. The syntax does not please everyone (and can evolve) but at least it is built on original concepts.

Unfortunately, my keyboard can only register 6 keys being down at the same time. This has thus far prevented me from successfully playing emacs.
In my experience working under a business name gives me the flexibility to have diferent team configurations based on the type of client. If it's a bigger type company you can hire people and work under the biz name, and for smaller projects you can present your work as a personal portfolio giving the client a more personal feel.

"or do we tell him to learn some math and CS first, and gain an appreciation for why the problem is hard and probably not worth taking on unless you really really know what you're doing?"

The problem IS learning more math and CS, because odds are the people that make "yet another social network" already know about math and computer science as they use to be geeks.

So you are an academic and you believe they need more academics.

What they don't know is about marketing, aesthetics and art and psychology(things like Myers briggs PT) and all the multi facets that you need to know for a SOCIAL(people relationships) network.

People that love to program machines use to have a defined personality, the most difficult thing for them to understand is that there are other personalities as well that are different from them.

Data is very difficult and hard to give a universal answer that is meaningful. I use a GSM-based phone so I have options with prepaid sim cards and the like but usually try my best to plan times around known wifi access.

I went through TechStars Seattle last year and now have the privilege of watching the 2011 class from up close, since my company has remained in the same co-working space.

Everyone says that ideas are bullshit, but there isn't anything much like watching the evolution of your own idea and that of nine of groups of peers. But, it wasn't really until this year, watching ten budding companies from the outside, that it became so hilariously apparent that no first time entrepreneur has any fucking clue what they are doing.

I've overheard some of the companies pitch half a dozen ideas in a single afternoon. At least one or two of these wildly off course teams are the ones who are showing promise of discovering deep insight into their respective markets. For some teams, bouncing around is simply part of the process.
I've found that, regardless of odd or even numbers, I am often the only one not talking to anyone at the table. I'm not awkward or too shy, but I guess sometimes I'm not assertive enough or I just like listening in to other conversations more.

This is unfortunately very common! I experienced it quite recently, when I had to make a decision between 2 jobs. A guy from a recruitment agency who I had interviewed with, made me postpone deciding for the two jobs, as he was "dead-sure" he could get me two interviews for consultancy assignments (which I was more interested in), within "early next week".

The entire week came and went, and I didn't hear from him until a few weeks later. It was a "Are you interested in position X? Oh sorry about not getting back to you last week by the way".

To me this was the most rude treatment I have ever gotten in relation to a hiring process. They persuaded me to akwardly stall the two other companies, which I did (but really shouldn't have), and then never even bothered with a phone call. I respect that people are busy, and normally I wouldn't really mind - But actively making you postpone other plans, and then not get back to you is quite over the top.

Such behaviour reflects extremely bad on the company / recruitment agency, and they are doing themselves a major disservice. I'd never even consider getting my next contract through those guys, I'm not going to recommend their positions to my dev friends nor to any potential clients that could use their services.

Another agency always got back to me, phoned or mailed with good news or bad, always accessible and courteous. They've since gotten tons of referrals from me, because they are worth it.

It's so easy to shine as a company in this particular area, since a lot of HR and recruitment people have a tendency of treating people like a disposable commodity.

The people arguing that taxes on high earners should not be raised (and should perhaps even be lowered) are mostly not saying "The government's revenues are too high"; they are saying that those tax rates are too high -- that higher upper-band income tax rates are unjust, or will reduce the incentive to work harder, or something of the sort.

It seems perfectly reasonable to me to respond to this by pointing out that upper-band tax rates have been distinctly higher in the past, and that innovation and wealth creation have done just fine when they were.

Incidentally, it seems pretty odd to me to say "more or less flat" and give a number as precise as 18.1% when the actual variations have been from 15% to over 20%. I wouldn't call that "more or less flat" (though I would agree there's no long-term trend, which is an entirely different matter) -- but, regardless of that, I suggest an experiment. Ask someone to plot a graph of something that's "more or less flat at 18.1%", a graph of something that's "more or less flat at 18%", or a graph of something that's "more or less flat, between 15% and 20%". I predict that the first will be much, much flatter than the actual revenue graph; the second will merely be much flatter; and the third might be about right (though probably still too flat; "varying between 15% and 20%" would most likely get you a better result).

In other words, your choice of wording gives a very false impression of how the graph actually behaves.

Also having off grid solar cells (coupled with charge controller accumulator and inverter) helps a lot. Even if you don't intend to switch off the gird - you can easily power your notebooks/cell phones from solar power.
Please accept my apologies, my original response was a little OTT. The objective reasons for making the switch are:

- its a lot faster (IIRC creating a branch in subversion is the same as a copy operation)
- the merging algorithm is better (this is so important IMO)
- you get to commit when disconnected from the network
- because it is faster and uses significantly less space, you can improve the way you segregate changes, giving you more (and improved) options when it comes to your branching strategy
