It looks so similar to KanbanTool [http://kanbantool.com] (intuitive UI, board, easy drag&drop, comments etc.) - but it is much less customisable and powerful.

I'm just wondering if Trello is a finished product or do you guys planning to implement real-time updates, notifications, history, more customisation, priorities and any features like KanbanTool has at the moment?

And is there enough place on Kanban market for another tool?
Not to make this into a long debate, but I don't think your wording is the problem.

Plenty of websites have no commercial goal, they're just meant to be gawked at. All the major contemporary art museums have websites, photos and posters in their collections.

Also, many sculptures found in museums weren't made to be used as art - they were meant as tools or status symbols, for communication, sexual arousal or worship.

To be a 'real' artist isn't determined by the medium one uses, but by the quality of the work created. I enjoy the work of Dieter Rams, Saul Bass and Dick Bruna just as much as that of Vincent van Gogh and Jackson Pollock.
Its certainly not that the money is already spent. I'm in a fairly good position right now with respect to that.
First, why would it be free if you're providing detailed reports? That doesn't make sense to me. Is there a more attractive revenue model? I thought of quantcast.com when I first read your post but I'm not sure that's what you really mean.
In the article, it mentions that the password are hashed using SHA-512. As has been mentioned before, using such a fast hashing scheme for passwords is a terrible idea. Any idea as to why they do it this way? (instead of using bcrypt)
You can also just pop in the OS X cd and change the password at boot.
Don’t get me wrong. Good strategy combined with good execution is a joy to watch (case in point - Apple over the last decade). The last thing you would want is people off doing their own thing and being all ‘off-strategy’ and rebellious.

I think "strategic" is a little elaborate for Apple's actual plans since Jobs took over. Aside from the initial jump from computers to consumer electronics, the only actual strategic decisions Apple made were along the lines of "what products should we try to create?", "does this product still suck or should we release it soon?", and maybe the switch to Intel processors. They didn't fall into the trap of thinking about second-order shit like image or positioning or market or the economy, they just tried to figure out what would be a great product they could make, and what products and concepts were worth pursuing or not.

Yep - there is a huge market for this, one that Net-A-Porter and Mr. Porter dominate (~$200 million in revenue). They take care of the sizing issues with flexible returns and personal stylists. Since 80% of their revenue comes from only 2% of their client base, they can afford to hire personal stylists for higher-volume clientele. Check it out.
Moving along, thanks! I would still purchase that bookmark although the market for it now has decreased substantially with the rise of ereaders.

As far as the staffing agency, it would solve the problem international students face in getting sponsored. I'm not sure how much you know about the process but it's time-consuming and costly. The agency would work with big companies who can afford it and are looking for top candidates to add to their team as well as students who need to be placed and meet their specifications in regards to grades, achievements, etc. Think of the traditional model except focused on people with visas.

Concrete Canvas - What a brilliant invention
Back in the real world, it is actually happening the other way around. Retailers and brands (which have all the power and money) are becoming the content creators and poaching talent from the publishing industry. Quote below from a Business of Fashion article earlier this year.

"What began as a trickle is now starting to look more like a mass exodus. Jeremy Langmead, formerly of Esquire, is now at Mr. Porter. Andrea Linett, formerly of Lucky magazine, is now at eBay. Dennis Freedman, formerly of W, is now at Barneys. Fiona McIntosh, formerly of Grazia, is now at My Wardrobe. And the list goes on. It seems that there are almost weekly reports announcing that yet another magazine veteran has fled a traditional publishing company to take up a position at a brand or retailer. Recently, it was British Vogue that was in the headlines, when creative director Robin Derrick and fashion director Kate Phelan both announced within days of each other that they were leaving the magazine. Phelan is set to become creative director of Topshop, while Derrick’s plans have yet to be revealed.

By now, it’s a well-known fact that times are tough for traditional, ad-supported editorial outlets. For example, from 2007 through 2009, Condé Nast — publisher of Vogue, Vanity Fair and others — saw about $500 million in revenue disappear, a decline from which it has yet to recover. In fact, Condé Nast CEO Chuck Townshend recently admitted to the Wall Street Journal, “My eyes are wide open. I don’t consider [the traditional ad-revenue model] to be a perennially sustainable stream of revenue.”

Windows Phone Mango Supports Music Streaming From SkyDrive
For your first point, if they own their own root CA that is trusted by browsers, then the capability is definitely in their hands. And that doesn't need any kind of special hacking capabilities, just signing a certificate that is for Google services. The whole SSL certificate trust hierarchy depends on CAs not being that evil, there is no tech keeping them non-evil. Of course Chrome does certificate pinning at least for their own services, but not the others.

But on you second point I agree. If they are prepared to use such capability, it would be really stupid to reveal their will to do such dirty tricks in some ordinary matter - better save it for a real need.
CPU-based Morphological Antialiasing source code
It's bad, but it's not that bad. SHA is widely supported, and not that bad, yet.

Also this is protecting desktop computers, where cracking hashes is not a common security problem. Getting the machine stolen in starbucks is probably much more common for this type of machine.

Is there a term/concept/pattern for pushing authorized actions onto an object?
E.g., instead of an object asking, "am I authorized to do this?" over and over again within the context of an application, everything it is allowed to do is pushed to it upon authorization.

Does that make sense? Please forgive my naivety and fumbling attempt at an explanation.

What do you call this? I'm interested in finding software patterns that implement this.
So maybe the overall answer is that whether a school has people checking IDs depends less on rational decisions and more on their history—have they had trouble, have they had paranoid management, that sort of thing.

Yes, 2001 Google did. I don't know their reasons for removing the ability to search strings that include punctuation, but it could have to do with bots using search engines to scan for security exploits, as with the Bing overreaction to phpbb queries (http://blamcast.net/articles/bing-crash).

Off topic, but can we please stop pretending that an asterisk means you didn't just say "fucking"? That is pure superstition.

I'll try to answer the grandparent.. But note that I don't really know this topic in great depth so hopefully people who know will jump in and point out my mistakes.

Firstly HTTP is unreliable because there is no guarantee that the website is up at any particular point in time. In other words you couldn't write a reliable program that depended on fetching data from a website because the website might be down when you requested it. You could try to wait and fetch the data later, but that would be effectively building another protocol on top of HTTP to make it more reliable. I have no idea about IIOP/CORBA but perhaps it added more reliability?

AMQP isn't completely reliable. I mean, if you send a message to an AMQP broker and it's committed, that just means it's saved to some presumably reliable resource, eg. to a harddisk. If a plane falls out of the sky and wipes out the broker, then it's not reliable. [You can, if you have enough time and money, set up AMQP so that it would be reliable even against aircraft incidents]

I don't think in this respect that AMQP is more reliable than SMTP. But it's a lot more convenient than SMTP for what it's designed for: ie. messaging for programs. Getting email out of and back into programs is a whole lot more complex than just setting up an AMQP binding.

OK so this post is hyperbolic and sets off most of my BS alarms, but it appears to be Nick Frost, who has been pretty impressive in hustling for his startup http://startupli.st/ so it might be interesting.

It'd probably be worth it for a developer to look past the hyperbole and contact him to at least see what the idea is.
Apple doesn't ignore security, they advertise security enhancements in their products:

"Address space layout randomization (ASLR) has been improved for all applications. It is now available for 32-bit apps (as are heap memory protections), making 64-bit and 32-bit applications more resistant to attack."

"Application sandboxing protects the system by limiting the kinds of operations an application can perform, such as opening documents or accessing the network. Sandboxing makes it more difficult for a security threat to take advantage of an issue in a specific application to affect the greater system."

I have less than 0 interest in picking up a separate app or service for each channel. Aggregation is just way too convenient. Whether they like it or not, I don't think of things in terms of "I want to watch an HBO show", I think of them in terms of "I want to watch x, so I will go to y which has every show I want to watch". Hulu seemed to be pulling this off, but the networks couldn't seem to make that work for them.

I agree that the cause of those services existing (networks wanting to go it alone, causing licensing problems) is also the cause of Netflix's troubles. Netflix's subscription pricing change and subsequent subscription losses is a reflection of those licensing issues, though, as the producers are no longer giving it away for a relative pittance.

I'd argue that you're talking about tactics not strategy here.
I guess I do both. While I haven't been doing a lot of real painting recently (working on other projects) I certainly do. I have some paintings on Picasa (https://picasaweb.google.com/105616061675197682498) but I'm working on some sculptural work currently that lets me both program and make art (building some cellular automaton related stuff, see https://github.com/Wollw/Automaton-AVR).

I'm probably going to get bashed for this, but when I saw this ad, I cringed. Parents, please don't do this to your kids. I find it creepy that someday a woman is going to be handed hundreds of letters that her father wrote to her over the years. It's weird and awkward.

When I saw the ad I thought, 'surely no one would be that weird to their kid...right?', then I immediately realized that someone would do this exact thing.

Just let your kids grow up with you in real time.
TLDR: on big machines with lots of memory (72GB), vanilla MySQL has great performance but suffers from minutes-long "stalls" during which throughput drops to zero. The only viable way the author found to avoid the stalls is to decrease throughput by 20x by cutting the amount of memory MySQL uses (thus wasting the hardware).

This is really terrible news for anyone trying to do high-throughput DB operations on mySQL.

The only "good" news is that the average web app isn't going to be running on hardware anywhere near as powerful as this, so you are highly likely to already be in the "slower", consistent state (e.g. anything less than 40GB of RAM).
So if they just pwned the guy's PC like a normal investigator would, why wouldn't they just admit to doing that? Why would they admit to having this capability of court-ordered "packet tapping"?
Zed, You are one of the interesting people I would like to meet someday. I will eventually get in touch. My job (among other distractons) is sapping me right now, but I hope to get back to real life by mid-November. Likewise I can be reached jacfoxy at gmail dot com.
> But certainly the client needs to know something about the base resources such as product or user?

Of course, that's the "media types" part, it's the complete description/knowledge of a type of resource returned by the service. The media type returned by the service's root is the gateway to the rest of the service. That's the part which is generally missed in RPC-over-URL services claiming to be restful: they exhaustively describe the shape of all the URLs in the system, and then just quickly pass over the media types (the resources at these URLs).

That's doing it literally the wrong way around, a RESTful service documentation should be absolutely exhaustive in its description of the media types, the only "hardcoded" URL of interest to the client is the service root and it only takes a line to specify.
I'd argue that people still think they are unrelated because they saw a politician say that once in a debate.

Joker's tactics were used to execute on his overall strategy of robbing banks for a specific goal, getting close to specific people.
Cross-account deduplication does have a client-side benefit: duplicate files don't need to be uploaded. E.g. your 300 GB iTunes library might sync to the server in a couple of minutes, rather than days.

I'd recommend reading his blog instead, especially his analysis of services claiming RESTfullness. The thesis is not exactly clear, and I did not grasp the significance of what's now called "HATEOAS", the importance of media types and the lack of importance of URLs (as well as the complete irrelevance of "pretty" URLs to the restfullness of a service) until I read his blog posts on the subject.
I certainly didn't mean to imply that some art is not "real art", if anything I have a lot more respect for video editors, web designers, marketing designers than I do for most modern painters (from a very subjective quality of work point of view).

All I was trying to do was find a decent way to seperate art that isn't related to anything technical, of the type that (loosely speaking) has been being produced for centuries(/more), and stuff like video, web etc.

As to not thinking my wording is the problem - your replies have showed that the impression I gave you wasn't at all what my thoughts were, so clearly that was the problem.
Arduino's are definitely used at the proof-of-concept stage but will never make it in to production simply because they're too expensive for that.
My attitude is when you hire enough programmers that are better than you the best thing to do is get out of their way and focus on building the best environment for them. Call that role management if it helps.
The money on the table reference was in regard to the kind of interactivity one could add to a sports stream: camera angles, betting, fantasy\gaming stuff, stats, alternate commentary, etc.

It really should be it's own thing. It's more than just a movie\tv show in it's possibilities, and so doesn't just plug into a Netflix model.
Thanks Eric. This project deals with location and influence, and I've done extensive customer development, research, and validation. You're right about the hustle, as I have a chain of retail stores, the Palms Hotel in Vegas, and many online customers looking forward to using this product.
Even without changing much to the existing model of interaction I would appreciate the opportunity to pay a reasonable fee for access to non-local broadcasts. My ideal would be the ability to pay a discount rate for season-long subscriptions to sports or leagues, but with the ability to purchase viewing rights at a reasonable rate for games or series that wouldn't otherwise be available with your cable package.

It would be like applying the pay-per-view model that boxing has, but integrating it into a solid, unified distribution platform like iTunes is to music. Offering reasonably priced, a la carte, international sports-viewing-access with discount subscription rates would be incredible, at least in my opinion.

I would argue that you can either have data de-duping or encryption, but not both.

If encryption is defined as: Transforming data so that only people with special knowledge can read it.

Then if you can compare a chunk of encrypted data against another chunk to determine the source data...

Well now you have very weak encryption because you could brute force it if you have a large enough repository of user files.
Erm... I forgot I was in a place where preemptively apologizing for making a joke isn't enough for people to think you're joking.

I would like to point out though, that the text you just copied are pretty much apple's only words on the topic.

To further my joke even more:

Google search for "easy" on apple.com [1] returns 3.3 million results.
Google search for "secure" on apple.com [2] returns .5 million results.

On the internet easy returns 3.6 billion results, and secure 1.25 billion. So on the apple site, you would expect easy to show up 3 times as much as secure. In fact, easy shows up over 6 times as much as secure.

This definitely proves apple cares about security only half as much as the rest of the internet does!
Fair point - I'll give you that. Ironically I did a spot with Intermec barcode scanners and printers for asset management on top of Oracle so I understand where you are coming with.

Currently I take 2 - 4 projects per month usually with old clients. Also I'm not a full time freelancer, I work on average 2 hours per day on these kind of projects.

There's a startup that is quite similar to idea #8. They're called befitting and they're located in Toronto (http://www.thenext36.ca/content/befitting). Their app focuses more on visualizing how a certain article of clothing looks on you (so you can determine if the size is right or not), rather than recommending clothing.

The issue is x86/x64 being a turd. Throughput of just about everything drops when you go over the 36Gb boundary for some reason. I have no idea why. It can drop by as much as 30%. This is from experience operating VMware on the physically the same type of kit (except with FC SAN / NetApp).
