I agree that their search engine and ad platform could be classified as monopoly. However I disagree that their actions have been anti-competitive in any manner.

They have a huge chunk of the search market but you can still use very good search engines like bing, yahoo, ask, aol or the awesome duckduckgo.

Google is continually tweaking and improving the design, speed, results and features of their search engine in an effort to stay ahead of the competition.

The reasons that people don't use the other engines are not because of google being "anti-competitive" but rather due to them offering a superior service.

So? Perhaps I'm biased, but calling religious organizations non-profits has always struck me as suspect. If they're performing a charitable function, they can easily do so as a secular charity. If they're proselytizing, then they are functionally no different from self-help gurus who charge people to attend conferences.

I understand that, for many religious people, proselytizing and charity are inseparable. They commit charitable acts in the name of, and because of their religion. There is no discernible difference, to them, between feeding someone and saving their soul, save the greater importance of the latter. However, we live in an at least nominally secular society. That means that we don't show preference for or prejudice against religions. Societal factors have led to the preservation of the tax-exempt status of religious organizations, but this relic of an age when the Church was more powerful than most states should not lead to an expectation amongst the religious that they should receive similar treatment from private enterprise.

That Google offers a non-profit discount at all is admirable. I suspect those complaining would be singing a much different tune if they were aware that under its previous rules, Google was directly subsidizing the Church of Scientology and other such organizations. It's terrible when your Sunday school's subsidy is revoked, but not so bad when a crazy cult is forced to pay full price. The obvious conclusion is that all religious subsidies must be avoided, or Google finds itself in the unenviable (and untenable) position, as a multinational corporation, of deciding which religions are deserving of its patronage.

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/sql-notify.htm...

I can't vouch for the performance characteristics, but it's got some nice features around how notification delivery interacts with transactions (notifications within an explicit transaction are not delivered until & unless the transaction commits successfully, order of notification from a single transaction is preserved), guaranteed delivery, and some degree of deduplication of identical notifications.

However... PostgreSQL's "SELECT FOR UPDATE" seems to have significantly better performance than MySQL's version, most likely due to how concurrency & MVCC vs. locking interact. A few years back at a now mostly-defunct social network which shall remain nameless I had to implement a cluster-wide work queue for sending out member emails that couldn't involve installing new software and had no shared disk space to use for that style. A queue based on an existing PostgreSQL installation (the PG process had a 3 year uptime at that point) using "SELECT FOR UPDATE WHERE worker_id IS NULL /LIMIT 1" followed by an immediate update of the worker_id and transaction end had quite good performance on mid-2000s hardware. As far as I could tell from my research then the limit 1 with no ordering clause locked only one row and concurrent processes each got a different one, so they didn't have to serialize on grabbing a job. Definitely do your own research and testing, but in my experience SELECT FOR UPDATE used carefully with a thorough reading of the docs is a much more viable solution on PostgreSQL than MySQL for a few hundred worker processes. I wouldn't try it for G+ or Twitter, but if you're dealing with more than the 50-100K daily active visitors and 25M or so customized emails that went out monthly I suspect you know you're going to be putting in some extra engineering time.

Yeah, but why not just skip the intermediary step and use a "real" queueing system to begin with? It doesn't sound to me like it's any more effort in the short term or in the long term, and it's one less thing you have to worry about as you scale.

Swallowing signals :)

Back in college, all of the computer science lab machines used shared NFS home directories. It wasn't unusual to see "NFS server not responding" on your console when the network was experiencing a hiccough.

There was a running joke about how crafty students would swallow SEGFAULT in their assignments and just endlessly print out "NFS server not responding" in a delay loop. "Crash? No, it's just the network. Look!"
> My first obligation on this Earth is to my family

No disrespect but to what was your first obligation before you had a wife and kids?

I'm always tempted to interpret this kind of statement one of two ways: either your life before your family was so miserably empty that it gave you a purpose (nothing wrong with that) or you're borderline schizophrenic that you can fool yourself (or worse, truly believe) that your personality suddenly morphed and you're now a different individual who will be just as content with a lifestyle radically different from what he ever had, obligations as well as satisfactions that cannot be possibly imagined until you actually cross that line and have kids.

I personally have a hard time believing people can change that much...

The template would have to be evaluated twice for any problems to occur - once to insert the user's template code in to placeholders within the original template , and then once again to execute the resulting combination.

Your last paragraph (if I'm reading it correctly) leads to a point I've often mulled over. We tend as parents to overcompensate for what happened to us as children. I think this happens at the social-historical level too. Traditional child-rearing was something between harsh and brutal. Physical and emotional violence was common. We have rightly come to abhor that. But, typically human, we (or at least the educated white North American middle class) have merely flipped a bit and gone to the opposite extreme of elevating our children to little gods. This can't be good for the little buggers, deceive ourselves and adore our own virtue though we may. (Side note to the indignant: I like children. Including my own!)

Back to how, as parents, we overcompensate for what happened to ourselves in the past: we do this unconsciously, so it's hard to know that we're doing it. And it's a bad thing, because almost inevitably we end up creating a mirror image of the old mistakes. But there is a way out of this dilemma: personal healing and growth. To the extent that one can integrate one's own experience, feel one's own feelings, etc., one becomes free of the compulsion to resolve them through one's child and able to behold the child as an independent being.

It's off topic because the post wasn't about parenting, it was about scheduling your work life. Your post was talking about parenting styles (child-centric, etc...). He didn't mention a thing about how he was raising his daughter, just that he was scheduling the time to do so.

For example, I can block off 3-4 hours a day for my kids where I don't work/check email/etc... That has nothing to do with how I am raising them.

The point that I took away from the original post was that taking time for your kids[1] is good for your work. It was a counter-intuitive discovery for him, but he felt that the dedicated time away from work helped to make him more productive.

[1] For him it was your kids, for you it could be your dog, your spouse, or building ships in bottles...

I call that even (actually I already consider this advantage: company. I'd like to be getting residuals like people other industries do). If you don't want me to leave then make it attractive enough for me that I can't do so rationally.

Obviously something else... ?

Life has a way of changing whether you want it to or not. So, maybe whatever was #1 got bumped down to #2. That doesn't mean that their life was meaning-less and empty before having a family. Nor does it mean that their lives really had to change all that much with a family.

I don't understand the false dichotomy here.
If someone runs an entry node, they get to see the IP addresses of 1/N of Tor users, how much data the users send and receive, and when. But they don't get to see what data the users are sending and receiving, or even what exit node they're using. If someone runs an exit node, they get to see (and filter) what data 1/N of Tor users are sending and receiving, and when, but they don't get to see who those users are, or even what entry node they're using. And the data they see can still be encrypted; e.g. connections to Gmail will use TLS/SSL, so even the exit node doesn't get to steal your mail.

So that may be why.

Beyond the novelty of doing it as a learning exercise the first time 'round, I agree that your approach is better where there's any expectation of scale.
You are conflating two completely separate issues. The amount of time you spend with your child has absolutely nothing to do with whether or not your child is spoiled, undisciplined, pampered, sheltered, etc.

Bad parenting (for lack of a better phase) is what causes these issues, not spending time with your child.

You are trying to make a connection between the two ideas, but I you are just recklessly generalizing your own personal observations of bad parenting.

As a counter example, I spend as much time with my daughter as I can (which is really only a 2-3 hours a day during the week due to work schedule and bed time) and she is absolutely respectful, not spoiled, and has plenty of friends.

I'm sure I'm biased regarding my own daughter; you'll just have to take my word for it.

>Taking your clients (that old employer invested in bringing in) is obviously unfair competition.

No it isn't, it's normal practice. In a customer facing profession you are the product being sold. If you have a developed a big client base from your skill I see no problem with you taking them with you [1]. If the company wants to keep you then they have relatively easy means of doing so. If some other place is willing to offer you a larger percentage on the value you're creating then you should be able to take it. The company loses for not paying you your market price. As it should be.

[1] Do you realize that this is common practice in various industries? This is also how a lot of consultancies and other kinds of businesses (even hedge funds!) get started. It's bad enough that if I make something that nets the company 1 million annually I will never see any of that.

One who wants to learn how to sell fruits or vegetables should visit some big Asian bazar (local word for a marketplace) and take a look. Most of sellers are gurus of merchandising, which in this context means how to place fruits, which ones to put together, which ones to put aside, which ones in customer's reach, which one only to display, aren't some kind of WF innovations, but quite old ideas. And instead of flowers they put fresh tiny branches with leafs, as if they were accidentally cut in harvesting. And of course, the ideas about showing boxes, as if it was just fresh delivery, or putting drops of water on fruits, or making a fresh cuts, giving you some fruit to touch or to smell, and so on.
The best markets I have seen was inside and around Kashmir valley, and, of course, street vendors in Nepal's capital Kathmandu. So, this article is something like, I don't know, an amateur take to the subject. ^_^

And all that Whole Foods thing is just for people who know no better. Fresh means when it comes morning time directly from a tree or from a field by people who brought stuff to sellers.))

> Perhaps I'm biased, but calling religious organizations non-profits has always struck me as suspect.

Yes, you are biased. Non profit means "not to make a profit", and that fits religious organizations quite well. None of them try to make a profit, therefor they are non-profit. It's not really that complicated.

> If they're proselytizing, then they are functionally no different from self-help gurus who charge people to attend conferences.

Except that they don't charge. Which of course does make them different.

You are biased because you (presumably) don't like what they do, but that's your opinion, and you should not assume everyone shares it.

And it's interesting you find the only organization in the world that claims to be a for-profit religion (Scientology) and use that to paint the rest of them. (Again barring fraud, which obviously does happen.)

Scientology is for profit because they charge money for their services, no other religion does that. Other religions ask for donations, sure, but the services are not conditional on the donations.

Just because an organization has a message does not make them for profit, anymore than a secular organization with a message ("don't eat meat" for example) automatically becomes for profit.

Your post sounds like you want to be the arbiter of which messages are for profit and which are not.

More and more these days I find a computer without Internet to be increasingly useless. Google Docs' value proposition is irrevocably tied to its online status. It offers features that a strictly offline office suite does not. For Microsoft to be able to sell an offline Office, on a mobile, 3g-integrated computer, for Office prices, would require some functionality that they haven't come close to implementing. You would have to make some argument as to why your offline Office Light (lite for you colonials who insist upon spelling that corresponds to pronunciation) is better than the free, connected office suite Google offers.

At the moment, Google Docs is Office Light. It offers a limited subset of Office's features, and doesn't do it particularly well. What it does do, extremely well, is make it easy to get the documents you create to your friends and co-workers. I can't see a limited-functionality, offline version of Office competing with that.
