Kickstarter is not an investment. It's a donation based on a story and a non-legally binding promise.

If you treat it as more than that you are deluding yourself.
Wow! Can it run acme? I'm wondering because "treats the touchscreen like a one-button mouse" If so, how is the right and middle click used? Anyway utterly cool stuff!
Think 'dimmer+wifi radio' for the parts pricing. So whatever it is that you come up with it is never going to be cheaper than a dimmer + the price of a wifi radio plus some mark-up.
It's probably worth mentioning that the GC cycles start to take upwards of one second at around 500mb of RAM usage with lots of small objects.

This limit doesn't stop you using NodeJS, but it's definitely something newcomers should be made aware of before they start writing database servers or making heavy use of a naive in-memory cache through an object literal.

Hopefully when the new GC gets rolled out we'll really be able to let loose with the RAM usage.
Helpful, friendly community. No-nonsense packaging. Easy setup and recovery. Been on Arch ever since moving up from Slack 10 years ago, now use it every day in a demanding IT workplace. Maybe it's not the distro for newbies - tis the distro for me and you <3 :)
What's unfriendly about gnome and KDE? I've been running Linux Mint now for a couple of years as my primary dev machine in a windows network and the gui is top notch. Personally I find the OSX gui conventions a little screwy and awkward.
Jeff Bezos job posting for Amazon (1994)
The Win8 lockscreen being confusing depends on the context. For example, a first time user buys a Win8 slate there's probably a basic 'This is how to unlock' tip somewhere, I imagine. Also, seeing average users pick up wild Android unlock schemes I think they'd be okay. :P Though, if they suddenly started playing with a friend's slate the exploring of the interface would be interesting to watch.
The image illustrating the "Senior Web Developer" job is a screen shot of an HTML image map (with uppercase tags, for good measure); I haven't seen many of those since 1995...?
An article about the plane and the pilot:

http://www.thestarpress.com/article/20110917/NEWS01/10917033...
Consider this:

for ( int i=0 ; i < this.MyControl.TabPages.Count ; i++ )
{
try {
this.MyControl.TabPages.Remove (this.MyControl.TabPages[i] );
i--;
} catch(Exception e) {
}
}

Can this be simplified? If this syntax were used elsewhere in the program, but we didn't want to catch the exception in this particular case, should we copy-paste this, and remove the try block? Might there be a situation where preserving the syntax makes the program clearer?

Messis Top10 goals from all goals
Top ten Goals of messi.
It is always surprising when looking at a list of the worlds highest paid athletes that more soccer players are not higher up on the list. Sure, nobody can touch Tiger Woods, and there are plenty of American athletes that have a combination of huge contract and huge endorsement deals, but it is time some of the world’s best footballers started climbing the income list. David Beckham will always be there because of his global icon status, but this year the world’s highest paid footballer was a diminutive Argentine genius by the name of Lionel Messi.

Messi is such a quiet and inauspicious figure outside of the game that you would never guess he made somewhere in the region of $44 million last year. Shy almost to the point of being reclusive, Messi is the rare modern day athlete who seems to live with the attention he gets as opposed to craving it. From his humble beginnings in Grandoli, Argentina, to becoming one of the highest paid athletes in the world, Messi has managed to retain his sense of place in life, and you honestly feel he would play football for free if asked to.

Put him on the field however, and you can see why the money comes raining in. Many young Argentines are given the label of the next Maradona. From Ariel Ortega to Juan Roman Riquelme, these players seemingly burdened by the pressure of a nation fail to live up to the level of talent they possess, Messi though is a different story altogether. Strikingly similar in height and build to his ex-National team boss, Messi has the same ability to simply glide around defenders as if they aren’t even there. His mix of balance, agility, and speed, when mixed with underappreciated strength, make him a beast to knock off the ball, and when he is in full stride it is something to behold.

It is hard to believe, but at 23 Messi still has all his best years in front of him. Last year he was named the La Liga player of the year for the third season in a row and he scored an astonishing 47 goals in all competitions for his club side. In one Champions League against English side Arsenal he completely took over the game and was undefendable as he floated around the field scoring all of Barcelona’s goals in a 4-1 demolition job. If this is just a prelude of the player he can become then he may move even higher on the list of world’s highest paid athletes.
Messi has a huge deal with Barcelona who broke the bank in 2009 to secure his services until 2016. The deal works out to be in the range of $18 million per year with image rights and shirt sales on top of that base figure. In addition, Messi has numerous personal sponsors and endorsement deals, including Konami and Adidas, which add to his monetary haul. All in all it is easy to see how Leo Messi has become the world’s highest paid footballer in 2010.
Ask HN: Why must the Mac Skype Client be so big?
Why does Skype insist on making a client that looks like MS Messenger? Yes, I know they were purchased by Microsoft, but does that preclude a cumbersome and ugly UI? On the Skype forums, there is almost universal disdain for Skype 5's massive screen footprint -- what keeps Skype from actually listening to the overwhelming majority of users? Especially since the old Skype client looked great. It would be great if iChat could serve as a Skype client. Would there be a way to hack iChat to make that happen?
Oh, sod off. Some people simply can't. I know, because I'm one. We're still excited -- we just don't show it.

Literally, we can't. You may as well be asking us to detach our arm.
URDU SEX STORIES: Garmi Ki Raat
Why Star Wars should be left to the fans
I think of kickstarter as a tool for putting my money where my mouth is.

BTW, in my experience KS works really well. Of course I use to only back people with experience making what they want to do, people that have prototypes already designed and functional that only needs to sell a mass produced version.

As they say: "real artist ship", so the first thing people do is look for proofs that a maker is really a maker and not a snake oil salesman.
Even if we consider me a "technological artifact" for the purposes of discussion, it's clear that we pose enormous threats to not just other species, but ourselves as well. Obvious examples in the mainstream are global climate change and nuclear weapons. You can even find well-known physicists mentioning Venus as a conceivable future of the Earth, due to runaway greenhouse effects.

Not too far from nanotech "grey goo" nightmares.

(I don't think that technology is inherently bad, but it's being developed by incredibly destructive social arrangements.)

I was going to argue that you can always invest internationally, but even this looks slightly dodgy.

The MSCI world index has had a 3% annualized return after inflation since 2000...which is strange and somewhat hard to explain. Another problem is that for the last 10 years, the best investment opportunities have only been available to rich people, at least in the US - the IPO market doesn't exist anymore and most wealth seems to be created in companies that are privately held.

I'd give my left nut to be able to invest in any company in the world.

BEST & WEIRDEST CONSPIRACY THEORIES
Android is an interesting point of comparison because the lock screen on the Galaxy S2 is exactly like the Windows 8 lock screen. When I first got the phone, it took me minutes to figure out how to unlock it. I handed it to a couple friends and asked them to figure out how to unlock the phone and they struggled as well.

On the other hand, I feel like somehow the feedback for the Windows 8 version of unlock is a little bit better - it responds to the swipe a little bit quicker. I do fear that it creates a bad starting point for your first experience with the device though - going into it confused isn't a good thing.

A lot of the gestural input in Win8 feels like it relies on blind exploration to discover how to use the device, unless someone teaches you. In a way, that could be a good idea - encouraging the device's owner to explore and play with gestures - but I think the risk of features remaining hidden and undiscovered is pretty significant.

Here we go again. I'm pretty sure I've seen this post here (and the famous Vietnam of Computer Science one) several times before.

No database access abstraction is going to be great for all situations. Whether it's object-oriented, functional, or DSL-based, there are going to be situations where it's frustrating to use. However, each of these abstractions have a purpose and a clear benefit for a certain subset of situations, or else they likely wouldn't have been created.

Since people find some abstractions useful for some subset of situations, why waste so much time and energy fighting against its use entirely--labeling it an "anti-pattern"? On the other hand, why waste time and energy arguing for its ubiquitous use? Like with all other technology choices, the right prescription is to use an abstraction when it makes sense, and to abandon it when it does not.

Maybe it would be more constructive to frame the discussion in this way: what cases are ORMs useful for, and what cases are they bad at? How can we identify the good use cases from the bad? Which use cases seem to be good uses but turn out to be bad, and why? What are alternative solutions for those bad use cases? Are there different philosophies of ORMs with different tradeoffs? What are those philosophies and tradeoffs and how can we choose which one most suits our problem?
This is true. The problem is that middle-class Americans don't _really_ want to save. You can always live in a tiny, crappy house, drive around in an old beat-up car and never go on a holiday that requires you to fly. But if you do this, you will look like a freak to your peers. So practically all middle-class Americans do, in fact, live just within their means. The entire culture is just different in India.

I live in Norway and currently save about 20% of what I earn. I get away with this since I just finished studying and still living the student lifestyle doesn't look so weird. But if I was 32 instead of 25, this might start questions from friends and family about how I'm not doing something with my life. Of course, even with this approach there is the question of how to invest your money in a way that it doesn't fall in value.

Actually, it is going to be interesting to see how this plays out these days when most of the Western world seems to be in a huge debt crisis. This is a more complex question than you can probably solve with armchair economics, because saving money at a rate of interest higher than inflation requires that someone is willing to borrow your money. In the end, you might have to end up buying stocks.

Tracking Weight Loss – Turn to Science
My point exactly, launch as a focus of Marketing or any other dept. for that matter is a bad thing and is an example of the Waterfall method.

Also, building a brand and marketing sound similar but are very different. In personal terms, you, as a brand would be 'what others to think of you', and marketing is 'what you say about yourself / present yourself'. Sales is how you 'turn an audience into followers'. Since sales = marketing + brand, in the analogy above 'audience to followers' = 'what you say about yoursef' + 'what people think of you').
ZTE make the Orange Rio (UK) that does some of that. Sells for £20 quid. You see them about.
My effective income is $17,280, pre-tax. Even pared back to that, I've accumulated about $3,000 in savings over a year. It helps not to buy stuff. Like, at all. I have only 14 major physical possessions, including where I live and "clothing" and "tools" as single objects. I have much more software, most of it purchased at steep discounts through Steam or the App Store/Market. Spotify provides music.

Surplus monthly income is roughly $500. It's been a pretty successful experiment. So saving at low incomes is very possible. What I think bears mention is that this is mostly possible because of my age and disposition; I'm young and I'm picky, so I neither pile up expenses nor have a burning desire to possess most things.
Nonsense. Everything is overridable. ORMs are perfect for a whole lot of standard cases and nobody prevents you from writing SQL code for custom cases and performance improvements.
It's like they don't know what horizontal scaling is or something.
I don't particularly disagree with anything in that post, but the fact is that the code time saved with an ORM is so massive, that NOT using one is effectively gross premature optimization.

Sure, as your app grows, you write SQL to speed up the bottlenecks. And that's O.K.
The great mismatch
Does anyone know whether, if you were to create a fake project and get it funded then just walk away with the cash, there would be any legal action from KickStarter themselves, and/or the potential for legal action from one or more of the backers?

I figure that, because of the "it's not a guarantee that the person(s) you back will succeed", it ought to be possible to successfully come across as a legitimate person who did his best, spent all the funds on the project and ended up not managing to actually finish it.
I'm rather skeptical about text editors implemented on top of the canvas element. Mozilla has already tried that with Bespin project and it failed miserably (huge code base, poor performance, limited accessibility).

Wouldn't it be easier to just use div element with contentEditable attribute? Currently contentEditable has limited API and a lot of inconstancies across browsers, but in the longer run it seems to be the way to go: http://ehsanakhgari.org/blog/2011-08-31/future-editing-web
I kind of like the "picture password" option. It shows innovation in an area that badly needs some (authentication) and should be easier to remember for many people than a PIN code, I think.

Picture passwords would be harder to write down, but I'm not yet sure whether that's a negative or a positive.

Flipkart-Amazon's next shopping in India?
Industry is still waiting for Amazon to take a ticket to India. It would be stupidity to ignore the world’s biggest player of portal selling segment. With hands on technology, huge working liquidity, and the longest experience of being in industry Amazon is the whale hiding in swimming pool. May be it can enter with M&A (merger & acquisition) strategy. It would be easier to say that Amazon may add Flipkart to its shopping cart.
No kidding. The first thing that I tried immediately wasn't supported (capital 'C' to start typing over the first line).

Would be very nice once it gets more mature, though.

we use Datamapper at work and have an increasing need to write custom sql queries. A common problem we face is that we now have non-standardized data coming out of the model. In other words does this method return a datamapper object or is it an array of custom-defined fields ? a quick fix would be to use the custom query to return ids and then use those ids to perform a Datamapper query that returns DM objects - which is clearly not a good programming practice.

In my experience this article is spot on. It's easy to say "oh sure just use custom sql for this edge case" Only those edge cases turn out to be increasingly common and it is increasingly hard to work with data that may be coming at you in multiple formats.
Ok, but being less enthusiastic than baseline doesn't mean "I'm secretly holding back negative thoughts about almost everything". I'm less enthusiastic than baseline, but it's not because I look upon everything around me as distasteful or lacking. I know many genuine and enthusiastic people who don't need to exaggerate or dissemble.

And yet, DBIx::Class (and Class::DBI before that) daily make my life easier over large, complex applications. The reason I use it is not because I was told to by someone, but because it was a better way of doing what I'd find myself doing in every bit of DB code I wrote anyway - abstracting the data layer. DBIC does this in a predictable way that I know most other Perl programmers will also understand.

So I'm sorry your ORM failed you. But there's no way in hell I'd ever go near your codebase if you're shying off them in favour of raw SQL, but also because talking about things as being 'anti-patterns' is ... urgh.
I think ted was likely a great deal smarter than the people we're dealing with now.
What are you seeking? Are you stable? The reason I ask is people tend to do these kinds of things after a break-up or other major, life-altering events. Have you thought this through? There are other necessities in life aside from 'food and shelter'. With your skills you can make a decent living anywhere in the world.

What's the whole story here?
No need to apologize for submitting the article. It was certainly interesting, and I can understand why you submitted it. The problem, though, is that there are numerous such articles that we could read and discuss, enough to swamp more scientifically- or technically-relevant submissions. They are easy to digest and weigh in on without adding much.

I'm glad I read the article, so thanks for that. I was just surprised by how hard jsdalton got downvoted when he was right. It indicated to me a mismatch between what HN is "supposed" to be and what the commenters/voters here think it should be.

This all boils down to using the right tool for the right task and knowing how to organize your code so you don't run in to limits in the platform components that you use.

In this case, the obvious solutions are to either use 'buffers' (think of them as extended memory from the old days) or to use multiple instances on the same machine or spread over several machines.

If you write your code in such a way that you end up handling all your users in a single process then you will sooner or later run in to some limitation.
ORM is bad for reporting and complex queries, but it makes CRUD bearable. The amount of code required to write CRUD subroutines for every kind of data present in database tends to bore absolutely to death, with endless realms of near-copypaste code. Any good programmer would throw together a half-baked ORM just to DRY database access code.
