Usa government jobs
USA government jobs have been day by day increasing with the number of jobs decreasing in the private sector. USA is now facing a bad experience due to the bad position of the economy .It is also about the jobs which are getting down by the impact of the negative press.

I don't know if your product is viable or not but your landing page will turn people off. Sorry.

It's hard to be a developer and then do design, I get that. However there are resources to help us with layout, fonts and all that stuff. Have a search for twitter bootstrap, that will help.

Then remember you're selling a web app (even if it's free, you still have to sell it).

So you'll need at least.

1. A great headline.

2. Screenshots.

Hope that helps.
Honestly, only a couple people have emailed in so I can't offer you anything concrete. The goal is for users to reply to the forwards so that anyone involved in the topic is updated.
Why? I think that notifications systems on the desktop are not useful and a distraction. Apple probably thinks similarly about them.
Interesting. I found myself reluctant to start using this just because of the fact that I'd have to use an e-mail address, but I ended up submitting a topic anyway from one of my secondary e-mail accounts, just because I'm interested in participating in new ideas. I do wonder though, how many people who would otherwise try out the service, are stopped in their tracks due to the mandatory e-mail aspect?

Couldn't agree more on the point about how waking up early sets the tone for the rest of the day. When I get up on time, I seem to get way more done than if I get up 1-2 hrs later than I wanted. Probably just psychological, but if I get up late, I guess I think "welp, I've already effed up today so it won't matter if I eff up on everything else!"

> an expensive car that does not look good

Seriously? What cars, in your opinion, do look good?

> It's not faster or better than other cars

0-60 in 5.5sec

400Nm torque

Those numbers are nothing to sneeze at. Yes it is expensive. It is a low-volume exotic all-electric car. what are you expecting?
$136M is a lot of money for a distributed file system. Can anyone compare GlusterFS to HDFS? I think they're booth GoogleFS clones but I'm not sure on the details except that HDFS uses a name node and is written in Java.
It is in no way comparable to the ultra deep field. That's optical. This is sub-millimetre (the region between infra-red and microwave). You see entirely different things, and use 'em for entirely different purposes. It's like saying that a Formula 1 car isn't better than a mining truck -- it's a meaningless comparison.

Unless you're just saying that the images aren't as pretty as the Hubble Deep Field, in which case I agree. Things always look prettier in optical than in radio.
I have to completely disagree. I think GIL is useful in ruby and is a mitzvah, not a sin.

Reason: Well bla bla bla unicorn does light-weight forks. But the real fun is in "synchronized" keyword of java. You see, in java multithreading is hard, but it is a heluvalot easier than in many other languages, ruby included. If anything, we should design "Truby" which is a new languages for multi-threaded ruby. Truby will need syntax for dealing with asynchronous operations. Truby can then remove the GIL and life will be good. The problem is that you take ruby as it is and remove GIL, sure you can get away with things, rewrite libs, etc, but in the end you won't have a really good language for async programming anyways.

So yes, just use processes. Once we have a good multithreaded op model without a GIL then we can just use threads. Until then...

edit: jruby can get away without a GIL because it relies on libraries implemented in java, which have very little issue writing async code.

Finally a coherent message outlining the issues and targeted directly at the people who the protesters are trying to affect.

They still haven't provided a message of what they want, but this is a very well laid out list of grievances, and a coherent underhanded threat of what will happen if change isn't made.

I don't think this generation has to be lost, as they are finding their voice, they may create the change that will lead to a greater democracy than currently exists.

I still think they are trying to accomplish too much at once, but maybe that is my start-up experience talking.

If they picked one thing that would have an impact, and focused on that for the next 6 months, they could keep the momentum going.

What if they focused on limiting the power of lobbyists. That would have a significant affect on their voice in democracy. Personally, we are somewhat disenfranchised with the democratic process because the lobbyists have so much power.

I think your burnout is because you enjoy working hard, but have trouble knowing when to find that balance between productivity and happiness.

In my 7 years since college, I've worked at two tech companies, and I've experienced burnout at both at one time or another.

I'm dealing with it by:

1) managing expectations - people are generally reasonable when they're aware of your work load and can sympathize with your need for leisure time

2) don't be a roadblock, but you can say "NO" more often - when I was younger, I'd chase small wins here and there, but overall it did not impact my external performance metrics much. It would have been more productive if I focused on more impactful changes and leave some smaller tasks for newer team members (and use it as an opportunity to transfer knowledge + teach)

3) there's always more work to do - one more email, one more changelist, one more code blog to read, one more framework to learn, one more person to meet. I have accepted that I cannot possibly exhaust my mental todo list. Anyone out there who says they accomplish 100% of what they want to do is either lying or have a short list.
Another point to keep in mind is that our support of HTML5 and open standards crosses a variety of audiences. The folks who appreciate our contributions to jQuery and WebKit aren't usually the same ones who appreciate the easy visual design Muse offers. So while a given single product may not make sense for your workflow, the larger point is that we're strong supporters of HTML5 as a platform going forward. That support is being instantiated via a variety of tools, services, and frameworks suiting a variety of audiences.
I left out the part where most of our fetch operations operate on just one primary key. The data structure is very stable and the need for different kinds of analysis has disappeared after several years of refining what the product does and should be. It's an analysis app that sets market prices to hypothetical values and simulates that alternate reality. It provides very fine-grained maximum likelihood explanations for why revenue would drop or rise.
The first step to solving a problem is to understand exactly what the problem is and know the problem domain. I read your rant, and I'm afraid I did not come away understanding what the problem is.

What do you think the problem (or problems) is exactly?

You are mostly right, and it interesting that the US has a well-funded open access program for instilling focus and discipline. But it puts median-intelligence people to work on violent acts and afflicts them with PTSD, instead of making them health and productive.

If true, that is the fatal bug. About this:

"small compared to SF, Palo Alto, or the South Bay"

That may be changing: http://berkeleystartupcluster.org/

Which reads, in part, "Launched in October 2010, the BSC's goal is to establish the area in downtown Berkeley -- that is walking distance to the Cal campus -- as a thriving destination for technology-oriented startups as well as tech-oriented established companies, investors, entrepreneurs and supporting businesses."

Since you know Berkeley you must know the "Power Bar Building," right? (One of the two high-rise office buildings in Berkeley.)

BSC has taken over the very top floor (gorgeous views) of the Power Bar building to create an incubator space.

My zoning idea would open up street level spaces for start-ups to grow into.

SF is very accessible from Berkeley, especially downtown Berkeley. BART is right there, for example, and by car the Bay Bridge is a quick hop down the road.

Palo Alto and the South Bay generally are less accessible. That's more of a trek either by public transportation or car. Here's the thing, though: across from the southern part of the peninsula (the traditional core of Silicon Valley) there is the south part of the east bay (e.g. Fremont) where high tech businesses locate. Between them is another traditional hub in San Jose. San Francisco has become more popular and has anchors like Twitter and a tight relation to Oracle. The bay is nearly encircled by hubs with the Berkeley / Oakland part being the laggards.

Coherent thoughts on what is and is not "free market". I would disagree that the fed is really meant to prevent inflation. Many of their actions are specifically designed to increase inflation. I also disagree that there is any reason to suspect that its better than a private money alternative, or backing to some kind of commodity based standard like gold. I would say most evidence is to the contrary (although this is generally a lengthy discussion).

We're not talking about the same thing. The NYT and WSJ are not tech pubs. They generally cover hard news, and in the case of the WSJ, provide a mouthpiece for the conservative political establishment in the United States. These newspapers are not about the EIC or publisher -- all editorials are deliberately unsigned and voice comes through in the reporting style and individual columnists/contributors (Krugman, Friedman, Mossberg, Pogue, etc.).

According to "IBM System/360 Model 65 / Functional Characteristics" (A22-6884-3):

EMERGENCY PULL Switch

Pulling this switch turns off all power beyond the power-entry terminal on every unit that is part of the system or that can be switched onto the system; therefore, the switch controls the system proper and all off-line and shared control units and 110 devices.

The switch latches in the out position and can be restored to its normal position by maintenance personnel only.

When the EMERGENCY PULL switch is in the out position, the POWER ON pushbutton is ineffective.

Your comment incidentally reminds me of the term "boob tube" (slang for television, for those who may not have encountered the term). I suddenly wonder whether that's what we're heading for, with the Internet. Throttle it until it become the latest form of "boob tube".

This is an excellent choice, and (of course) congratulations to the recipients. Their work really did add an extremely significant chunk to our understanding of the universe. And I think it has now been long enough to confirm that their observations really were accurate.

It was also, I think, the first scientific paper I actually read -- I did an assignment on it as a callow young undergraduate, and I still remember sitting in Fisher library poring through the text copy of the journal and trying to figure out what was going on.

Since the page doesn't actually explain the work, I'll have a go. I'm doing this from memory, so someone correct me if I get something wrong. Basically, they set out to study how the distance of a receding galaxy relates to its redshift (ie the speed at which it's receding). Up to this point we could easily measure the redshift of a galaxy, but not its actual distance.

How do you measure the distance to a galaxy? What they did was to look for Type 1a supernovae. This is a particular subclass of supernovae which always have the same luminosity, because they occur when a previously-stable neutron star goes just over the mass limit and becomes unstable. There's a sufficient number of these going off in the universe in any given week that they make a good "standard candle", so by measuring their brightness you can estimate their distance.

What these guys found was extremely surprising: the relationship between distance and speed was not what we would have expected based on a universe which has been evolving only under the influence of gravity since its birth -- there was an extra term which appears to be accelerating the expansion of the universe over time.

And that, right there, is an amazing fact about the universe which nobody knew fifteen years ago.
I would surmise that your definition of early is probably not early enough. :)
I'd venture to guess that the choices you mention did not always carry the sort of consequences they do today.

You're right, policy decisions don't cause more people to have kids at a young age. They do however, have an effect on joblessness [1], just to name one facet of the economic environment that now exists in the US.

Might be an age or experience issue. I mean, after 3 years of marriage, maybe theres an increase likelihood of boredom setting in and since friends tend to be in the same age range, and possibly got married around the same age, maybe it's just that time...Either way, be careful what conclusions you draw from correlations.

I see a similar possibility here. Startup scene got big around early last year say, now it's winding down, people are realizing, once again, that it's the hot shot big hits that get the showtime, not the 90%+ who have a failure and ended up wasting a year or more of their prime living on ramen and "bootstrapping". Take a look at the app store for how that works out.
The swagger is not why people followed TechCrunch. It was actually a toxic byproduct. Hopefully the new regime can stick to reporting and minimize the grief.
DRAM Errors in the Wild: A Large-Scale Field Study
Well, we can never fully bury a theory like that, but it's looking pretty unlikely.
That seems awfully dismissive of the situation and people's frustrations with it. Wall Street greed and political corruption do have a lot to do with it. For example, here's an article from Rolling Stone that's probably partly responsible for unleashing a lot of the frustration towards Wall Street: http://www.rollingstone.com/politics/news/why-isnt-wall-stre...

Whenever the subject of Wall Street's participation in our economic woes comes up, a few people show up and try to attribute it largely to normal growth/recession cycles, but that doesn't explain why so many of the figures that we're seeing now more closely resemble trends from 70 or more years ago.

Lastly: those "couple thousand college-aged leftists" have recently been receiving support from a wide variety of other groups. About the best thing you can do for their cause is to continue underestimating them.

> The scarcity of good music is real, and it’s not found in its distribution model.

If you can see this then why can you not see that absolute adherence to copyright is baseless?

Production -- effort, resources -- is scarce. Copies are not scarce. That means we should be paying for production, not copies. The ideal structure is: we pay producers the funds they need, and then let all copies of the product be freely available to all. Everyone producing is paid appropriately, and everyone can maximise the benefit. Is that entirely acheivable? Maybe not, but the point is it sets the upper bound on what we should be looking for.

Copyright only makes sense if there is no suitable alternative, and if it is not too onerous, wasteful, or counterproductive itself. The problem is that it is onerous, wasteful, and counterproductive now. The solution is not to keep hammering away at a dead old way of doing things, but to come up with good alternatives.
