I want to use Vim, but there are a few specific limitations I can't get past, in order of importance:

NerdTree is hard to use. Other editors I've used (TextMate, IntelliJ, RubyMine) have a simple "project drawer" that doesn't think it's a text buffer. That doesn't accidentally get replaced with the contents of a file or accidentally closed. What am I missing here?

Project-wide find and replace isn't nice. Vim is great at single file replacements, but it's not clear to me how to do a project-wide search that's anywhere near as productive as RubyMine. In RubyMine you can view a dialog of all the candidate replacements and selectively include/exclude. You can quickly hop between search results and fly through the code. You can preserve case, which does the replacement in a case insensitive way without turning upper case to lower case and vice versa.

I can't find a way of running focused Rspecs that I like. I just want to put the cursor inside a spec or describe block, hit a key, and then pop up a terminal at the bottom of the screen where I see the output of the spec runner. I don't want a quickfix buffer... because if there are stack traces that seems to obscure them. I tried to roll something together with ConqueTerm but it insisted on moving my cursor into the spec output buffer, which slowed me down.

The language plugins aren't syntax aware. In RubyMine I can hit ctrl-w to expand the selection to the next node of the syntax tree. This is incredibly useful for quickly selecting arbitrary regions of code. I know text-objects can get you some of the way there, but they force you to choose a specific type of region, rather than just progressively selecting higher nodes on the syntax tree.

Finally, moving by word doesn't respect camelCase or underscore word boundaries. Maybe this can be fixed?

I don't mind the learning curve. I like a lot of the concepts that Vim brings to the table. But I just can't get past these issues. I know I may be able to learn Vimscript and fix all these things, but so far it hasn't seemed worth it.
Points for originality. I can't claim to have watched it the end.
Crunch the numbers. According to your article, you have 130 million people with an average net worth of $18k.

In terms of income, the vast majority of those people have real income lower than the bottom 5% of Americans and nominal income even lower.

But even if this was true, there is still ways around this right? I mean rEFIt does a pretty good job booting up Linux in Mac, so wouldn't this be possible in those PC's as well?
Demo vs. TechCrunch Disrupt
If a company with Microsoft's legal resources loses a patent infringement suit initiated by Microsoft, chances are very good that they deserved to lose. Besides that, a valid patent is not enough; they would need patents that are valid (meaning novel, non-obvious, and no prior art from academia or commerce), and infringed by Linux.

Roll Crusher Commissioning
Roll Crusher Commissioning

DSMAC has successfully designed and manufactured a roller crusher which is suitable for crushing techniques and raw materials conditions at home and abroad. Due to the efforts we have made to further research the process system and improve the reliability of main engine, the running rate of roller crusher system has come to the level of ball mill system. The mature roller crusher technology has injected new vitality to the grinding system.

The commissioning of roll crusher must contain there follow there step：
First,the aerodynamic transfer test: the machine in use on-site, must be not less than 2 hours of continuous load operation test, dynamic change when the bearing temperature must not exceed 30 ℃, the maximum temperature not more than long 40 ℃, sprocket, gear, v-belt and rollers and other parts of rotation should be smooth, no unusual noise, no collision between the rolls.
Second, load test: run tests in air on a sound basis to achieve in order to load running test, load test of time not less than 8 hours continuous operation.
Third,you should determine the actual yield of compliance requirements, and the bearing temperature must not exceed 35 ℃, crusher should be smooth, there should be more severe vibration, the fasteners should be secure. Shall each be filled with grease. Should be well sealed, no leakage.
If you found when the production or operation does not meet the size requirements, activities can be used to adjust the bolt to adjust the back-end device, if found running unstable current fluctuations should check whether the feed size to meet the requirements, the normal stress test after can be put into production use.

I'd say go for it if a.) the core functionality is intact and b.) you set the customer's expectations. I am in a similar situation at my company and we have begun letting customers use our product. My basic feeling is that the more people you can get using the product the better - they will provide you with feedback and help you test how things scale early on. If the only problem is small UI things, it shouldn't matter so long as you manage is expectations correctly.
You probably want to be looking into automatically generated XML sitemap (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sitemap). Since the sitemap should always be available at say, /sitemap.xml you shouldn't need to resubmit it. Most modern search engines will check it every so often.

You might also consider doing redirects from your old pages to your new ones. I don't know if that is feasible given your restructuring.
> Well, sometimes reading the purpose / preamble in the bill that they voted on gives some insight to the purpose.

Let me guess - you also think that the title also has something to do with the purpose.

I think that both are marketing fluff. I think that because neither one has any substantive effect. Given that, it's unclear why you'd think that they have meaning.

Instead, I think that the purpose is what the substantive provisions would be reasonably expected to accomplish.

The alternative is that comgress-critters are incompetent, and I'm pretty sure that they're not. They're just trying to do something other than what you and I might like, hence the preambles and the titles.

Note that "they're incompetent" isn't doesn't excuse what they do.

True, but it's very different than an investment. They're holding your money in trust. And significantly, no purchase has taken place. You haven't traded your money for equity. You haven't traded your money for anything at all. Thus, it is still your money legally. That's not at all true when you buy equity in a company. When you do that, the company really does own the money you give them, and they're free to do what they want with it. In exchange for transferring ownership of your money, you get equity.

So I'm not saying players were legally depositors. Rather, I mean that ethically and in terms of the players' reasonable expectations, that's what they were.

I think the number of responses to your question may be telling.
Linux (on the desktop) is probably of little or no concern to Microsoft at this point. They've got bigger problems to worry about. If they want to focus on making computers sold with Windows offer the best possible experience it will benefit the most people. Possibly it will make things harder for Linux users but from Microsoft's perspective if the OEM is shipping Windows there's no reason to consider Linux as part of the equation.

>> The theory is simple: a company's stock price represents the stock market's best estimation of the company's value.

>This is contrary to all of the very little bit that I understand of the stock market. Investors attempt to find companies which are undervalued, and invest in them; by definition, that would mean that the market is not accurately estimating the company's value. A company's "real value", however you care to measure that, might be some kind of attractor in the market graph, but that's about the best I'd give it. Not that I know anything about this stuff.

It's a tautology that the value of something is defined by what people are willing to pay for it. When the markets are open, shares of a large company are changing hands hundreds to thousands of times per minute. It sounds like you are suggesting that a company has some kind of "real value" that's divorced from its current selling price -- if so, how would one determine what that is?

The efficient market hypothesis (which most pros believe is accurate, at least in its weakest form) tells us that it's not possible to pick stocks that are "undervalued." The EMH dictates that all information relevant to the value of a company is incorporated in the price, so it's not possible for any one investor to rationally discern that a particular stock is undervalued.
Yes, it is OK to stop at the end if you fix the number of tests in advance.

There are more general conditions than deciding in advance. The relevant theory in that case is the sequential likelihood ratio test (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sequential_probability_ratio_te...).

Typically, in an SLRT for a series of independent trials, you compute a running sum of likelihood terms (accumulating as you go) and then at some point you stop if the sum goes above one line or below another line. The separation between the lines tells you how much variability is "allowed" in the partial sums.

I see what you are saying. I think regulation helps and it provides a way for redress. Those are good byproducts of regulation. I think my point was that bad people will still try to pull fast ones -regulated or not. I imagine the frequency of fraud could be reduced by regulation.

So, from that standpoint it might be better to have it on the up and up and supervised -but supervised with a very keen eye and a regulation with teeth, as it were.

Notes like all other forms of documentation is suspect. If it's a complex problem that you don't already have a solution to you really do need to sit there and think "Why did I think this when I wrote it." otherwise it's easy to create flip flopping bugs. AKA fix bug 357, fix bug 372, hey wait bug 385 looks like 357 ahh that's right I need to set the flag to X, hmm wait bug 392 looks a lot like bug 372 etc.

PS: And when you have 15 minutes to work it's next to impossible to figure out how to fix 392 without also creating 357 yet again.

Ask HN: Thoughts on the new FB layout?
> The other thing most people don't realize is how much exponentially better the different levels are.

I hate that people so abuse the term exponential, but putting that aside, you're looking at this wrong. The skill gap between levels is smaller as you progress. The effort to hit the next level may grow drastically, but the acquired skills diminish.

Think about someone who's never played teeing off against a casual golfer. How horribly will they lose, while they struggle with the basics? Now the casual golfer against the serious amateur. How will the casual golfer fare? Now serious amateur vs club pro. And so on. At each stage, the more advanced person has a major advantage, but that advantage decreases as the levels advance.

As someone progresses through the learning process, they go from learning the basics, through competence, and eventually to mastery. During this they initially learn gross skills and finally learn the most delicate refinements. It's this way with every skill. If you had to wager on the underdog in a casual golfer vs club pro face-off or a club pro vs a national pro face-off, who would you pick?
It's still running.

This is the problem with getting tech news only from HN.
"The reasons for both have to do with the country’s overloaded, backed-up patent system. A startup’s design and branding can be protected with a copyright or trademark, which takes six months to a year to process. A new technology or method, like Groupon’s “tipping point,” would need to be protected with a patent in order for Groupon to take its clones to court. But a patent application usually takes two or three or three years to be examined—an eternity for a web 2.0 startup—and it’s never certain whether it will be granted, said Elliot Furman, a patent lawyer who has a masters degree in engineering from Stanford and specializes in software and web start-ups. And even if a company owns a patent, legal action is difficult, time-consuming and expensive. Pursuing a case is often not worth it to a young startup, especially those in the earlier stage who are working with limited funds."

I don't think that the fact that Groupon can't patent their buisness model quickly enough to ward off competition is the problem with "the country’s overloaded, backed-up patent system"
