But if they knew what's being requested, then the privacy would not be a part of the system. Unless the whole request was preceded by some signed hash of the request+headers that the cache could use for identification... Then again by doing mitm you could maybe poison the cache with a known content having the same hash (depends on the complexity of solution of course).

That seems to get really complicated quite fast.

Thank you. I think this is a responsible, reasonable approach. "This is going to be tough" is a reliable signal from instructor to instructed that we need to pay close attention, because this next part won't be easy.
This depends on the size of your vision and the speed with which you intend to achieve it.

Some people want to create a business worth 100s of millions, and they want to do that fast - they need funding (not necessarily external, but I'm assuming from your question that you've depleted much of your own capital).

Some people are happy to wait years to get to that sort of valuation; others may only want to develop a much smaller business. They may or may not need funding. So there's no right or wrong answer - only what is best for what you want to create.

Once you have an idea of what size company you want to create and any timeframes you are arbitrarily placing on yourself, then ask what you will do with funding to achieve that? Do you need $100,000 to achieve that? Or $1,000,000? Or $10,000? There's little sense in raising more money than you intend to invest (with the possible exception of a buffer for unforseen blow outs) - that's just selling part of your company at a lower valuation than it will achieve in the future.

Good luck!

Yellow lights are useful, for the reasons you mentioned. My beef is with long yellow lights.

And I disagree with your justification for all-red periods. If you're stopped in the middle of an intersection because of a blockage, it usually takes a lot longer than 1-2 seconds to clear the intersection.
There is this thing called Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) already, which does sort of what SPDY does, without breaking the OSI model. Ie multiple concurrent streams over a single session.

Not sure how it interacts with SSL/TLS thou.
Thanks. Sounds like an interesting project.
My biggest beef with poor speed limits is that we end up teaching our children that "breaking the law is OK." I will eventually teach my children that, but only when they're older and can understand the nuances. I DO NOT want to teach it to a six year old, but that's about the time that they notice that Daddy always breaks the law by driving above the speed limit.
By development we mean, I think, altering the land use for human habitation/recreation/industry. Here it's arguably a mixture of habitation and recreation. Putting humans on there is going to alter the eco system unless they're going to (at great expense) take away all their leavings, not fell timber, not catch any rabbits for food, not fish, etc.. The place looks pretty small I'd say any habitation conflicts really with the aim of natural conservation.

That said I think I'd love to live somewhere like that - don't think my family would move with me though.

Answering this question properly requires access to a crystal ball.

A partial answer: If you go and do a fundraising round now you might burn up very valuable time being distracted when you could simply launch instead. In your shoes, I would launch, and use the response I got from the launch to open the doors to the capital world. Of course, if you don't need money right away you could grow the business a bit further to maximize your negotiation position.

Remember that if you want to use C++ in kernel development, you'll only get a small subset of C++ because there's no runtime system to rely on. Exceptions are one example of this.

Without exceptions, the advantages of C++ are not that great compared to the hassle it needs to get running in kernel mode like dealing with name mangling, static/global constructors, etc and hassling with compilers.
> {int, vec} = require('std')

I don't know coffeescript, but this looks to me like "std exposes two things, and I am bringing them into this namespace as int and vec". Whereas the rust code looks like "std exposes int and vec, which I am bringing into this namespace, and possibly other things which I am not".

I agree with you.

But C is also ugly because Duff's device is possible. Think about it from an optimizing compiler standpoint. It takes a serious amount of effort to turn Duff's device -type control flow into an intermediate representation that can be somehow optimized. Now compare that to a language that is based on some form of extended lambda calculus.

Noca vs Authorize.net: Which is the best option?
Yes. I'm sure it works for the common case. It's the edge-case problems outlined in the answers below it that worry me more.

Going out on a limb: I'd assume that if you care enough about your data to version it in a git repo, then I'd also assume that you'd not enjoy it exploding because of a sync problem between two computers.
Like Java, Shen is a The Right Thing vs. Worse is Better language. I think the concerns expressed in in the Reddit discussion are overblown, you have to assume (or not) a certain degree of good faith on the part of those responsible for maintaining the language's correctness.

Sure, the execution of the license is vague (and note we're talking about concerns for people doing ports, not those using a blessed port), but don't forget how explicit Sun's Java license was and how they simply refused to play ball with Apache.

And some of the explicit concerns (e.g. 10 vs. 12 bytes per int) are just plain silly, given that there are blessed existing and in progress ports to several versions of Scheme and to Javascript.

I don't think it's quite so clear-cut. If you're selling downloadable apps (like mobile or desktop apps) you're almost certainly liable. What about the JavaScript code you're "exporting" to your users? That runs in their jurisdiction.

I'm writing this comment in hope that Rust language designers read this thread.

It's very important to language designers at this time to avoid stop-the-world GC approach in Rust at any cost.

Google Go is beautiful programming language, but its key limitation is stop-the-world approach to GC which makes it very difficult to implement highload web servers, DB engines and other software with strict max-time-to-response requirements. Recent research [1][2] suggests that "normal" Go program spends more time collecting garbage than performing actual calculations.

[1] https://days2011.scala-lang.org/sites/days2011/files/ws3-1-H...
[2] http://www.theregister.co.uk/2011/07/01/go_v_cpluplus_redux/

Go programming language has gone too far to separate owning and non-owning pointers at syntactic level, to disallow changeable global variables, to enforce rules like "each mutable object is accessible from only one thread", and introduce other means to avoid GC.

But Rust is new and young, already has 2 types of pointers, and it could avoid GC by RAII and reference counting. Objects linked in cycles with owning pointers would cause memory leaks, and I think this behaviour may be left as is, kinda "it's not a bug, it's a feature". Weak pointers could point to intermediary descriptor which holds owning-refcount and nonowning-refcount. Weak ptr behaves like a NULL if owning-refcount is zero and target object is already destroyed. This is to guarantee safe memory model.

In short please take all means to avoid main Go defect "Garbage collection takes more CPU time than actual computations". Please avoid stop-the-world GC approach which makes the language almost useless for real applications.
Would this allow you to scan the brains of subjects that are sleeping in an MRI to reconstruct their dream images?

Reconstruction of what the subjects are currently looking at is interesting but a direct window into the imagination would be something else.
They are decoding it using their pre-computed lookup table. This is a very valid approach, since the fMRI signal is both slow and low resolution. It would be awesome to be able to record individual neuron firing en masse and in vivo, but we are not there yet.

Likewise, do you check malloc on every call? If out of memory, I figure you're fucked anyway.
I was imagining something more along the lines of a server-side filter that stripped the audio chunks out of the stream as it sent, although I have no idea if such a thing is practical.

They've already re-encoded their entire library once (for WebM support), so in theory they are capable of it. The storage requirements might be a killer though.

I suspect it's technically possible, but maybe the potential revenue from the effort wouldn't make economic sense.

Germany is a good example of a place with the offense rosser described. It is not a good example of how to design an efficient highway system. I think the main problem is the number of lanes. If there's a tiny crack in the pavement, they'll put up a sign saying strassen schaden (road damage) and rebuild the road for 1km in either direction, but it's rare to see an extra lane added. I don't really understand what they're thinking.

I've driven in Germany quite a bit. I've never seen an accident on one of the unlimited speed sections; all the highway crashes I've seen were near towns, usually with a 100km/h speed limit.
Facebook F8: Game Changer Announcements for Social Media
I asked this in the other thread: would tech like this enable you to view what someone is dreaming?
"With an estimated fortune of $17.5 billion, Zuckerberg breaks into the ranks of the richest 20 Americans for the first time -- coming in at No. 14 on the 2011 Forbes 400."
It seems to me that jurisdictions should be able to provide a good reason for having the speed limit at all. "It's the 85th percentile speed" is a good reason but simply being "standard" doesn't seem like one to me.
As they mention in the article, it is known that dream imagery does invoke responses in the visual cortices (i believe even in V1), however the responses are weak in the early cortices, so it's not currently possible to "read" the dream imagery (i assume they would have done it if possible).

I am not sure how well the algorithm would work without the V1 activation, since V1 is retinotopically organized, making it quite easy to decode.
Phew.. I haven't tried to teach programming to anyone yet, but i think it would be a good idea to ask the student to point to some object. Then point to a different object. Then explaining to them that they are asking the computer to do the same thing as moving their hand and index finger. *- Ofcourse, it may not be practical in a big class, and it might help to put the objects in a sequence. Any feed back on having tried this??

So V1 is 'raw' and later cortices have performed more processing on the data causing it to be higher level, which in turn makes it harder to translate it back to a visual?
Skype Connects With Estonia’s Start-Up Culture
You're okay if you want to do a webshop and just cater to the Dutch market in which case you can use just iDeal.

But if you want to do international recurring payments you don't have that much options in the Netherlands.

You can go with one of the following: Spreedly+Ogone (which needs extra tweaking to support VAT) or Recurly+WireCard

Or pick a more expensive all-in-one solution such as Avangate.

I tried selling my app via eBay and got very few hits to even look at the page (less than 20). My app included: website, special Chromebook app, Android app, partial (80%) complete Windows Phone app code, partial (~10%) iOS app code. I spent a lot of time on it and although it isn't making money and isn't completely polished, the guts are all fleshed out fairly well. It also wasn't costing me any money as I was on the free plans of AppHarbor and MongoHQ (I highly recommend MongoHQ by the way, I pretty much will use it on every future project as it has made worrying about databases a non-issue for me). I'm thinking about trying out in-app purchases but I don't know if I want to invest the time or just throw the whole thing up on github.

Maybe I'll start a post about it, as I don't want to derail this conversation, but from my limited experience there is too much spam site noise on eBay to sell a legitimate project you've worked hard on.

Lifepath.me presents a completely different world view than facebook timeline. FB reminds you of your past shiny happy moments you cared to capture with a camera. Lifepath in its current form is almost a reminder of your biological limitations and that every single day counts. It caters for much smaller audience than FB, because people in general do not wish to be reminded about their death. With the lack of pictures I can see it could become a sort of anti-facebook private diary of achievements that really mattered. I too think that Diaspora with their idealistic vision of social networks would be an ideal buyer here. They could also use some design lessons from this app, they badly need it.
This is probably minor, but one of the things that bugs me is the incredibly shortened keywords. Is it really that much of a slowdown to type "function" or even "func" instead of "fn"? Same with "ret" instead of "return".

I have seen Rationalism mistaken for sound proof used in lot of arguments.Comfortably, ignoring that the validity of the conclusion is dependant on the validity of the premises. To be honest, logical reasoning is very useful in designing experiments, and multiple chains of logical reasoning is not my strongest point, but the refusal to define the conclusions beforehand is what makes me suspicious, when someone uses long chains of reasoning to convince me.

Making a PC That Is Abroad Look Like It Is in the U.S.
I think the problem is going to be similar with other consumer services like home broadband: It will be a numbers contest.

People compare their cameras based on megapixels, where for practical purposes your photos are going to end up limited by your LCD screen resolution. People own cars that has significantly higher top speeds than they can practically use, and ISPs advertise connections quoting the highest burst speed for the lowest amount of monthly subscription.

For mobile, in particular, I will also rather support a maximum cap on throughput if that guarantees reliability. That said, never underestimate the growth in demand to utilise whatever is being supplied, people will find useful things to do with 35Mbit/sec while being mobile.

I think they were used a bit back in blog's heyday but they're probably too complicated for most bloggers to use, and those who do tend to be spammers. So the analogy was perhaps bad. I want Diaspora to be the glue for the social internet, the way trackbacks are, albeit more elegantly.

Brain Movies: video reconstructed from brain activity

My approach would be to inform current users via email or some login notice lightbox about the situation, along the lines of:

"This site is in the process of being transferred to new ownership. We value your privacy, and will not provide any of your data to the new owner without your explicit permission. If you don't want to continue using the service following the transfer, you don't have to do anything (but you can download a snapshot of your own personal data from <link>). If you do want to continue using it, tick this box"

The only problem I can see with that is that most users should rightfully refuse until they know what the new owners plan on using it for, so you need to have a sale lined up and a new privacy/data use policy drawn up before you can do that.

Perhaps you'd keep a copy of the database yourself, and then once the sale happens and terms are hashed out, send the mail to everyone, and deliver a copy of the filtered opt-in database to the new owners.
Facebook: Good-bye  Profile, Welcome timeline
Criteria like age, location, education, interests etc. You can see the entire list when creating a Facebook ad: http://www.facebook.com/ads/create/. But the advertisers don't get to see what belongs to who, unless someone clicks on an ad, buys something and they backtrace all of that. They only target it.
The top-level post is referring to the timeline intro page (http://www.facebook.com/about/timeline), not timelines themselves.
Indeed, I meant to address this in my original post. It is not fool-proof but in most cases it's reasonable to turn your phone off after getting pulled over or before meeting a security checkpoint. Certainly much, much more secure than what we have now.
