I get what you're saying and the programmer community can be a mean and snarky place, but I'm not sure there is too much ill-will in the article.

Thinking that you are better than another person just because they haven't focused on your own domain of knowledge is arrogant and delusional, and in my experience many of the truly great are humble in the extreme (think Dunning–Kruger effect).

That said, a bad programmer can be a big problem if you are victim to their work. The same could be said for a bad taxi-driver or chef.

I think the article is more in the spirit of making fun of bad practices than character assassination, and that's something I can support :)
The video is nice. You do that in-house?

I'd be nice if there was a short description / value prop. statement above the fold. While your name implies what you provide, it's not 100% apparent what you are going to help me with and why it's better.

Hire a Virtual Assistant from the Philippines – Smart Reasons to Start 
Successful entrepreneurs acquires more administration tasks and the more time they spend on those tasks, the less time they will have to engage in business activities they believe to generate the most income. So, it make sense to hire Virtual Assistant from the Philippines so that they can fill that gap.
For a long time I thought that google's services were "free", a nice exchange for being advertised to in response to searches.

However now they're scrambling to win the emerging market of following consumers around the web and they're pulling all the strings they have to get a competitive advantage.

It's now so ridiculous that we recommend web clients not to use Google Analytics - as it's providing google the ability to assess visitors to our client's site, only for the 'highest bidder'(namely a bigger competitor) to be able to advertise to them in response, squashing the smaller businesses who can't afford to drop 200k on advertising.

It lets whoever has the most money to pour into google's coffers effectively trample their competitors. Often we're using Google Analytics because our client isn't able to afford much to begin with.

To me, it's unsurprisingly that google dropped their "don't be evil" motto a few years back. This product lets people mark themselves as the little guy so the cashed up big-guns can stomp them out before they become a threat.
Actually I found this article quite amusing. I've done almost every single one of the things he mentions. Perhaps these are universal mistakes programmers make as they are learning? Anyway, I am please I'm not the only one.

This is a really interesting article, definitely worth a read. I saw Hockney's portraits exhibition a few years ago. I'm not much into art but really liked his work.

A seasoned artist's openness to a new medium like tablets is really refreshing, compared to the usual nostalgia around canvas and "real" paint.

“Picasso would have gone mad with this,” he says. “So would Van Gogh. I don’t know an artist who wouldn’t, actually.”
Game design colleges
It still comes to a surprise to many people, but students can attend video game design colleges devoted exclusively to teaching the art of video game design. The rise of video game design schools parallels the rise in popularity of video games. They aren’t just for teenage boys anymore—everyone plays video games, from children to adults.

You can argue that Elop isn't a mole, but putting such neglect on the N9 is a true evidence that they don't want any platform built at Nokia (Symbian, MeeGo) to succeed.

Here's what the editor of GSMArena wrote in a recent post:

http://www.gsmarena.com/nokia_n9-review-659.php

"Not shown much love by its own maker, the Nokia N9 is embraced by the consumers. You won’t see Stephen Elop getting all too fired up about MeeGo and spending hours explaining how it’s the best thing since Santa, sauna and the N95. But if you care to look, you'll notice thousands of people hitting our site each day to just check out the Nokia N9."

Well, but if the photographer passed the image along to the final human viewer in 'light field format', he would defer his artistic choices to that final human viewer.

You can either use a standard mail client with their SMTP and IMAP servers, or you can use their webmail interface (roundcube). Plus, you get an email at your own domain, and you can thus easily switch email providers without changing your email address.

I think (but have not verified this) it's mostly the rendering that makes the Canvas/JS so slow. If you'd turn off the rendernig in both versions you'd probably get similar rates.
I have one rather large gripe :
The sentence "We use Oauth to look at the amount email in your inbox, nothing else." is _immediately_ followed by "Also until we get create a proper login system, we may use OAuth to get your email address".

I understand that this is a temporary situation, but you probably shouldn't say "nothing else" and immediately deny it.

Otherwise, the idea is cute, and the site is nice. However, I have a feeling that people won't want to broadcast that much information to just anyone. It's a little like adding "my desk is really untidy (or tidy, or whatever) right now" as an email signature.
There was an attack last year on freenode which worked like this... javascript did an automatic POST to irc.freenode.net:6667 with form data that included IRC commands to spam channels etc.

Unfortunately at the time their ircd didn't care about the 'POST / HTTP headers', and lovingly accepted the spam.

The First Theorem of Graph Theory: Bridges of Königsberg
That kind of hubris always presages the fall. The failure of Wave, Google+, and things like this: Brin's flippant, cocky response to a valid criticism means that if I had Google stock, I would slowly start to sell.
Here's two I would use, but making them seems to require everyone in the world to agree to some reporting API.

- Software that automatically finds receipts for all my account activity. So that if I give it my bank account statement that had a charge for Dropbox, it would automatically create dropbox.png which is a screenshot of the receipt from dropbox. This would save about an hour every month finding these manually.

- Mac OS X widget that adds all daily revenue from all different ad networks (adsense, cubics, lifestreet etc.) and displays the sum for yesterday and today in the menu bar.
Seems bizarre to me that he would be so dismissive, I didn't think Brin had that kind of attitude. Even as an outsider I found the memo compelling enough to read all the way through.

But it also brings up a point about Google+ that it seems to encourage long posts like this - most of the Google+ posts I come across tend to look like huge walls of text.
As a side note, I really like the layout, fonts and colors of the site. This thesis paper is one of the best formatted PDFs I've seen too. Bookmarked just for this.
Well, MFC was actually a library. And I know it was a poor library. But this is a different ball game.

With Roslyn, they are going to write C# compiler in C# itself (and VB compiler in VB). And if they expose this as an API, it's guaranteed that I will be able to parse every valid C# file.

The Perfect Desktop - Kubuntu 11.10
It's a constant f/2 lens, but that's fairly irrelevant as, given the way the camera works, you could use focus stacking to get the whole frame in focus if you wanted.

Of course, that depends on either software features or a lot of manual labour, which is why my main question about the device is how open/hackable the image format is.

I'd love to see the applications that come out of this - eg. ultra high-res 3d scanning from only a handful of photos - so I hope they've created it with a view to encouraging indipendent development.

It seems the examples are there just to showcase after-the-fact focusing, and that's clearly most easily done with a shallow DoF.
Brin doesn't come off well. He criticises a well received and thought provoking article calling it too long. How the hell would the guy squeeze what he wrote into one paragraph?
this is either hilarious (if he's just kidding around for PR's sake, and in reality he read the thing and took it to heart) or tragic (if he's really as dismissive as he suggests.)

17 Tips To Make Time For Your Business When You Have A Full Time Job
You have to think that Brin was sort of 'stung' by Yegge's airing Google's laundry in public like that so he's zinging back, but still, he's had time to process it and come up with a more politic response. If he'd softened it with ' ... but he raises some good points and it's provoked discussion ...' it'd be ok but as it is it's a blowoff and diss. In Yegge's place I might leave.
http://thenextweb.com/microsoft/2011/10/19/microsoft-dishing...

You ... have gained the ability to use secure boot?

Validating the integrity of the operating system using code stored as part of the operating system doesn't buy you anything - a prospective virus writer would just make sure to patch that checking code as well. You need to check integrity from outside that sandbox for it to be meaningful.

While the bios code does run on the same CPU as everything else, the important part is that it runs first - and the correct way of handling the keystore is to prevent it from being written to once non-bios code has started executing.

A bit offtopic, but does anybody know what typesetting system was used to produce this document? It looks like troff manpages. Is that what is used for RFC documents as well? I love the oldschool look of it.
It's probably written by a CS professor.
Based on the comments on Steve Yegge's post, hundreds of non Googlers read it and appreciated it, I am not sure why a Google founder did not find it worthwhile to go thru it.
On the one hand they mentioned that Google has an open culture and on the other hand they are dismissive of his ideas and seemingly refuse to acknowledge them.
I've had two Android phones with great keyboards: the HTC G1 and the Samsung Sidekick 4G. In fact I'm typing this comment on the SK4G while lying in bed.

What makes both keyboards great is the spacing around each key. Other phones like the original Motorola Droid crammed the keyboard into the smallest space possible, and there was no space between the keys.

With these two keyboards, I can hit about 30wpm without the use of any accelerators. I typed in each character of this comment.

Unfortunately with the SK4G, it does not include the tilde and backtick with the stock keymap, but that is fixed relatively easily thanks to folks on xda-developers.com.
Before we call Brin's attitude dismissive, let's not forget that at almost any other company Yegge would have been fired.

I think it shows how dedicated he was to his own cause, to create great products for those who followed apple. Do I think he done it for the money? Definitely not. As pointed out already he could have retired a rich man when he first left apple, instead he went onto to create next & pixar and eventually took apple from being what they were to one of the biggest companies in the world. Despite the fact he was a billionaire he lived rather modestly and never rested on his laurels.

The only thing I could say he gave in charity was his time, I know that after diagnosed with cancer the last thing I would have done is keep working, especially if i was in the same financial bracket as him. Regardless tho he worked on until the day he died, that alone gets my respect regardless of the great things he done prior to his death......RIP
I feel sorry for his family.
