Thank you pastor gifts
October is officially pastor appreciation month. It is a great chance for the congregation to pause and let our priest know that they are valued and appreciated. Besides Pastor Appreciation Month, Pastor Appreciation Day, pastor ordination, anniversary, jubilee, or retirement are also appropriate opportunities to celebrate and show our gratitude and supporting.
How not to recruit
There was a guest on Fresh Air that was talking about this recently:

DAVIES: Now that there's more interest in electric cars, is there a concern that, you know, the known lithium deposits will be inadequate for our needs in the future?

Mr. FLETCHER: Not anytime soon. I - these things are hard to forecast 100 years out, of course, because nobody knows what's going to happen. But when I was at the Annual Lithium Supply and Markets Conference last January, an analyst got up and basically told all the miners in the audience that there was going to be such an enormous oversupply in the last half of this decade that only the strongest were going to survive. There are a lot of people getting into the lithium mining business right now, but there seems to be more than enough to go around. And so I haven't seen anybody express concern about lithium supplies for any foreseeable reasonable number of these cars, you know, in batteries.

Of course, I'll just point out a misperception. A lot of people speak of lithium as if its oil. They talk about Bolivia or Chile being the Saudi Arabia of lithium. But you don't burn lithium. Lithium is a metal used to make a device that stores energy that's produced by other means. So it can be recycled. The batteries can be reused. There is plenty to go around for quite some time.

I haven't used it since trying it out on the first week.
I took the ML class in Autumn quarter and the AI class in Winter quarter of last year, there is definitely a lot of overlap - although to that extent, it might make it easier since you won't have two disjoint topic sets to study.

ML definitely goes into more mathematical rigor, while AI tends to cover a wide range of topics in enough depth to know when to apply them and how to interpret results.
Now that you mention it - I always thought Google might be the first company to create real AI. Now I realize that Facebook might be in the game, too. Then it really could be your friend.
Apple has 75% of the tablet market, Samsung is gaining quickly as a formidable competitor (specially after the Apple/Samsung European showdown which gave more exposure to the compatibility of Samsung).

Amazon might throw a lot of money at it, but my money is on Samsung & Apple battling it out. I think Amazon is doing this because Apple shut them out from their App store.

For what it's worth, most of the programming in the ML class when I took it last year was MATLAB based - since it mostly involved lots of linear algebra, and using MATLAB meant you got matrix operations for free. AI class, on the other hand, involved coding an increasingly more intelligent Pacman agent in Python as we learned new approaches to optimizing reward.

Having said that, taking ML definitely made my theory stronger - but this was mostly due to the amount of proofs in the class, and not so much the programming :)

I had theory that code mainainability is ultimately dependend on nuber of things that programmer can keep in head simultainously. Number ussually beeing beetween 4 and 12 in later text N. so that means if function has more than N parts it will be divided to 2 functions. and if class has more than N methods it will be divided. and so on.. Anything that has more than parts than N will be divided. and we must consider that N is not same for everybody but varies. what is maintainable for one programmer could not be for other.

How to measure what is your N number. It could be done like in that movie Rainman you throw toothpics and must quicly count them , start with large number and in next round remove some until you consistenly correctly count the number of toothpics.

in extension to this there is limit to number of parts that one man can control . this number is N^N
I tried out the site that is the subject of the OP (Knack for Teachers). I heartily agree with the sentiments of the OP. The problem wasn't the customer base, the problem was the product itself.

In a word, it sucked. (Okay, two words). The product looks and behaves like an alpha. The UI is counter-intuitive and unpolished. It takes way too much effort just to enter a single student's grade for a single assignment. This service actually makes a teachers' administrative burden worse, especially compared to using the gold-standard Excel spreadsheet. Speaking of Excel...where were the export options?

This product doesn't do enough, or execute well enough, to justify being a paid product. (The demo video is the only truly polished thing on the entire site.) Hell, it isn't compelling even as a free offering. Expecting teachers to pay for it was wishful thinking at best.

This failed startup isn't useful as a data point for other startups seeking to enter the education technology market, except maybe as an example that execution matters if you've got competition.

+1 on the importance/usefulness of the 500 family. TK nailed it with the N:N model.

A complaint that I've heard is that 500 is too big and that Dave has spread himself too thin. I couldn't disagree more... Dave has made himself and his connections available to us far more often than I would've expected, given the fact that there are some 165 startups (I've shared a meal and/or drink with Dave 3 times in the past month, despite living in Chicago)

FeeFighters wasn't incubated at 500startups, but Dave/500 invested in us and we're a part of the family despite being based in Chicago. The email list and camaraderie are super useful to all, and getting more useful all the time... Need beta customers who will put up with a rough product? No problem. Need an expert in ___? I bet there is someone on the list who fits the need. I know there are plans afoot to even further increase the usefulness of the family.

If you are lucky enough to get an offer of investment from 500, take it. Not for the money, but for the family.

Uh, no. Lua is thread-safe in the sense that you can use multiple Lua states in the same program. That is exactly what Lua lanes and the other package are doing. And what is described in the Programming in Lua book by Robert I.

But you can't access the same lua_State from 2 C threads, and you can't share data structures between 2 separate lua_States -- you would have to serialize all your data structures the message-pass between them. So if Lua had an interpreter lock, it would enable a Lua-threading library which Python and Ruby have. The lock would just belong in the lua_State and not be an actual C global. (not saying it should add this; just pointing out the difference)

You're use of the word "slow" doesn't have any meaning. What I meant is that Python and Ruby are not slow in the sense that you couldn't write "scalable" CGIs style with them in Hipp's style IF they didn't have horrendous startup time. That is, once the interpreter is started, you can do a LOT of work in 50ms of Python or Ruby (which is exactly what sites that serve billions of page view a month are doing). It's just that loading the interpreter can take upwards of 100ms with a lot of libraries. So with those languages, people use persistent servers rather than what Hipp is advocating.

In Lua you could have a persistent C program and initialize a new lua_State for every request. That would be the moral equivalent of CGI, without the fork(), since all the state is wiped between every request. But, getting back to the original point, that wouldn't retain the ease of administration that Hipp wants because it wouldn't work with inetd.

I totally agree with the concept, but I think you need to work a little more on the presentation:

It's not obvious that Base, Layout, Modules and State are separate articles when you've already defined them under Four Types. I assumed the links in the ToC were anchor links (I was on an Android). You also define Module before Layout in Four Types.

You need to do something about the flow between the chapters. First of all: A big link to the next chapter at the bottom. Some of the chapters also ended a little abruptly (e.g. Applicability). Even though the chapters are quite small, it's still important to have some kind of "conclusion". It could be just one or two sentences, but you need to show that "I'm finished with this topic for now".

I'd love to see more examples about different of modules. What modules do you almost always need in a project? When do you split one module into two? How small can a module be? How big?

This seems very similar to OOCSS: http://www.slideshare.net/stubbornella/object-oriented-css. I can't find the right presentation right now, but Stubbornella had a great slide where she showed how often the Media-module is used in Facebook (it's everywhere!) and how much code was reduced by introducing it. That would be a great example for you too :-)

Did you really work on Yahoo! Mail? Well, don't wait until chapter 2 to say it! I have no idea who you even are in the introduction. I mean, your name is only in the footer. Move your name to be a part of the title and tell what proper projects you've been working on (so I know I can trust you)!
For a 1920s document, I would actually expect it to be (badly) typewritten, but perhaps I'm injecting too much of modern myth of the times. Certainly cursive handwriting was considered to be vital at the time.

As for medieval, you can actually do pretty well with the medieval Italics or my personal favorite, the Carolingian miniscule. Blackletter is good for late period but it's very difficult for modern folks to read.

Scala is slow to compile. This was exasperated for me by the fact that I had just finished spending 2 weeks working in Go (which compiles stupendously fast) before trying scala.

I don't understand people who can put themselves through that much pain. FSC doesn't come close to addressing it well enough. I think anyone who's used to the compile-free nature of dynamic languages is going to have a hard time with Scala until it's resolved.

If you have an iPad already, you're not Amazon's primary target. That said, the 7" "mini-tablet" form factor might be one hook. It's actually a great size, great for reading, and I like taking mine to meetups where I just want web access and a little twitter. 7" tablets also fit in handbags and more pockets than most people realize (like back pocket of most of my jeans!).

Up to now, these devices have mostly been way too expensive - close to iPad prices - or cheapo devices (apad/hipad) with serious shortcomings, e.g. No Android market and ancient versions of the OS. In my case, I paid £160 for a device with poor quality control, had to return it as the wifi was broken. I changed my Google password a while ago, which broke Market and GMail and means I have to hard-reset in order to install any new apps. (There was no error message from those programs and had to trawl through forums to work out why there exiting immediately.) So tne 7" devices today have not exactly provided the out-of-the-box iPad experience.

"it's all about the software" as many hardware people say these days. If Amazon can build a smooth user interface, it will be the first inexpensive mini-tablet which "just works".

USB 3.0 Speeds Up Performance on External Devices
The USB connector has been one of the greatest success stories in the history of computing, with more than 2 billion USB-connected devices sold to date. But in an age of terabyte hard drives, the once-cool throughput of 480 megabits per second that a USB 2.0 device can realistically provide just doesn't cut it any longer.

USB 3.0 (aka "SuperSpeed USB") promises to increase performance by a factor of 10, pushing the theoretical maximum throughput of the connector all the way up to 4.8 gigabits per second, or processing roughly the equivalent of an entire CD-R disc every second. USB 3.0 devices will use a slightly different connector, but USB 3.0 ports are expected to be backward-compatible with current USB plugs, and vice versa. USB 3.0 should also greatly enhance the power efficiency of USB devices, while increasing the juice (nearly one full amp, up from 0.1 amps) available to them. That means faster charging times for your iPod--and probably even more bizarre USB-connected gear like the toy rocket launchers and beverage coolers that have been festooning people's desks.

The USB 3.0 spec is nearly finished, with consumer gear now predicted to come in 2010. Meanwhile, a host of competing high-speed plugs--DisplayPort, eSATA, and HDMI--will soon become commonplace on PCs, driven largely by the onset of high-def video. Even FireWire is looking at an imminent upgrade of up to 3.2 gbps performance. The port proliferation may make for a baffling landscape on the back of a new PC, but you will at least have plenty of high-performance options for hooking up peripherals.
