Excellent link.

Regarding splitting retail/investment banking, the following is a completely ignorant question, phrased in the form of a rambling incoherent hypothesis. I don't understand why it was a good idea for the U.S. to bail out the banks, but I can see how retail banking is essential to the month-to-month life of Main St, and so I can see why the government might be willing to spend taxpayer money to save it (to save taxpayers). It seems like maybe if retail banks weren't all playing the investment-bank game, maybe the suicidal investment banks could have been allowed to fail?

Or, not, because he hasn't asked for it.

He's basically saying, "if you provide tea provide a full tea service or I likely won't like it." If you don't want to provide that, don't.

If that's too complicated he repeatedly says "email me and ask". "Hey RMS, what tea would you like us to buy" would do it. As would giving him $0.75 for the tea bags he brought, if you feel the need.

It's so low maintenance.

A while ago there was an interesting article in the Orion magazine [1] that talks about this. It claims that people would become happier, even with less pay, when they work less and have more time to spend on family and friends. Apparently Kellog's tried a reduced work week for a while and the workers didn't want to change things back.

I find getting inside the virtual store tricky as well. First click on the text link to the Places page. Then click on the right arrow on the image on the lower right of the page (labeled Store Front). Then click on the white arrow on the ground pointing at the door. Alternatively, just wait until the still image turns into video and starts showing the inside of the store, then click on it. Badly designed video game seems accurate!

I'm happy to talk about sorbet and food in general, but this thread doesn't seem like the right venue. My email is in my profile, or if you are in the area we could talk at the store some slow afternoon.

There's a thing I do not understand, nominally speaking French banks' exposure to Greek debt is not that large. I have not a easy link as reference, but I seem to remember reading in some of last week's FT editions that BNP Paribas had the highest exposure, with ~4 billion euros, followed by Societe Generale, with 2 or 3 billion. Of course that to you and me it looks like a lot of money, but the Kerviel case alone cost SG almost 5 billion euro in direct losses (not counting the losses incurred by the case on the share price), so Greece going down (or taking a 50% cut) shouldn't be that much of a tragedy, at least in theory.

Now, why then all this panic? It could because of what you said ("spread rumors, accumulate riches"), or because there's a hidden iceberg somewhere in these muddy waters: maybe countries like Italy and France are much closer to collapse than people think.

I actually wasn't present during the shoot, although I saw her setting up. It seemed like a semi-pro digital still camera on a tripod. Perhaps it was on wheels? I think it was a fisheye lens? It seemed very low tech. I think all the fanciness is with the post-processing to stitch the photos together and correct the perspective.

You can see the tripod legs if you look down on any shot by clicking the "Down" arrow on the white wheel in the upper left of the interior shots. For our shoot, you can also get a pretty good reflected view in the doorway if you "stand" halfway outside then look left.
The choice isn't simply 'stay or go'. Talk to the rest of the team. Tell them what you're feeling (that you're not happy, _not_ that you're considering leaving). There's a good chance that there's work to be done that you could focus on that you will find challenging, or that there's something you can do to mitigate the hours you're putting in, or simply that talking it through might reignite the passion you (presumably) had at the beginning.

Plus, don't fall into the trap of thinking the grass will be greener somewhere else. This is your first job since graduating. You don't have much experience yet. Take it from me, almost every job is the same. It's actually easier to tailor your existing job to be something you like than it is finding a job that will suit you better. (Caveat: This is true of everything bar the number of hours you're working.)

Apple isn't leading the way if you're talking about mobile phone sales. They were leading a niche of the market. Last I saw, indications are that Samsung had even outsold Apple in the smartphone segment last quarter.

And if you think all TV's nowadays look the same I don't think you've seriously shopped for a TV. Yes, the overall shape is the same, but there's a wide variety of designs within the constraints of utility. By constraints of utility I mean that all TV's look similar because we all want a screen that is suitable for existing programming and that means mostly 16:9 format, and it is impractical to have a TV that protrudes in all kinds of directions beyond the screen itself, so the overall design is limited to a 16:9 screen plus a reasonably narrow frame. We also don't generally want bright colors because it is distracting.

It is similar for mobiles - it is limited by weight and size constraints tied to our desire to carry them in our pockets and hold them in our hands, while having a large displace.

Hyperbole much? It saddens me to see this kind of nonsense on HN.

Also, let me point out that your disagreement is not on the highest level of the disagreement scale. In particular, your parent brings up the very reasonable point that mankind introduced the two-day-weekend at some point during the industrial revolution. It's likely difficult to find anybody who says that that's a bad thing. So what's wrong with drawing an analogy here between the introduction of the two-day-weekend and reducing the maximum length of the regular work week?

I'm not saying that all your points are without merit, but you have not addressed the parent's point, and your comment is so full of rhetorical bullshit, it's disgusting.

By the way:
too many people are paying back too much debt, and that equates to negative savings.

This is factually incorrect (or perhaps you misstated). The savings rate is the ratio of disposable income that people do not spend. Since paying back debt means that you use some of your disposable income to pay back the debt instead of spending it, it actually equates positive savings.

You can see that the savings rate had a huge spike upwards in the US after the mortgage bubble burst, for precisely that reason: http://research.stlouisfed.org/fred2/series/PSAVERT

And - as you say - that's largely responsible for the economic mess we're in right now, because larger savings have translated to lower aggregate demand, which has lead to net layoffs. It's the paradox of thrift at work.
That's great news! Do you have any nuts and bolts information on how this was organized? (Was there any formal opposition?) If so, that could be very useful here...

Stallman has an uncanny ability to predict the future in regards to our industry. Everything he predicted has happened already or it will.

Trusted computing? It is here, it is popular and because of Apple it is also considered cool. It doesn't matter that the device you paid for is not your property anymore, people love shiny. Also, trusted computing got rejected by the market when Microsoft tried it, but now Microsoft is back on the horse and this time they'll succeed, because hey, we'll do anything for the sake of our grandmas, including giving up liberties for our future children.

Building proprietary lock-in on top of open-source? Yep. Before 2001 when OS X got released, Linux was the future of computing in our eyes. Fast forward 11 years later, go to any software-related conference and you'll see 85% of all software developers with a MacBook in their lap. Basically OS X destroyed Linux's chances on dominating the future desktop.

Uncompetitive advantages by any means necessary, including patents (which is something new)? Yep ... Java may be GPL.v2, but Oracle can kick the living crap out of you by using their patents and trademarks on it. On the whole, Sun releasing OpenJDK was nothing more than a publicity stunt of a dying company, just like the JCP was, to give the illusion of an open standard.

I think he earned the right to behave like a fundamentalist. You can agree or disagree with him, but if you do disagree, you should give a more detailed answer than "the world doesn't work like that".

Because in fact the world does work like that. People have always helped each other in return for favors or for the greater good. The emphasis on individuals and individual gains is rather new and our economy is the one that resists, but considering the depression we are in, our economic systems don't really do a good job apparently ;-)

You may not feel it now, even though it's 2011, but our lives and the lives of our children will depend greatly on software functioning for us. When certain software will stop functioning for individuals, make no mistake about it, that will be life-threating.

Also, software companies can yield great control over our lives and can do great damage already. Remember when Google was the underdog just 11 years ago? Look at them now ... with a push of a button they can delete you from the Internet.

Proprietary software pays the bills, but that doesn't mean it isn't a really big socio-political problem that needs to be fixed, sooner rather than later.

So yeah, keep buying iPhones, but when the shit hits the fan Stallman will be there to teach you again why it was a bad idea; or he'll be dead with nobody to take his place.

>"these days?"

This is hindsight bias - when Apple invented the 'swipe to unlock' it was a novel invention, exactly the idea the patent system is designed to protect. It's quite right that novel inventions be protected under patent law.

Whether you agree with the wider concept of patent or not, this can't be abuse of the current system.

It can also be seen, but to a different extent. An african that grows up in a city in a wealthy household seems to end up with a different sort of facial structure and skin than those who grow up in rural areas...and it never goes. However, the effect is far more pronounced among those who grow up abroad.

You can see this clearly in london - it's pretty easy to observe which Africans migrated to England at perhaps age 10, vs those who were born and grew up in England.
Can't you relabel things with Siri?

Then you can have siri change your water polo appointment on the bus without issue. :)

I opened it through strange circumstances. I was getting ready to launch a likely ill-conceived movie recommendations business with a couple friends, when I got West Nile Virus. Recovery was slow, and I thought I'd do a small farmers' market sorbet business with a friend while (literally) waiting for my brain to recover enough to do linear algebra again.

The product was great, and while the margins were OK, a few farmers' markets a week proved not to be enough to cover all the various overheads. The friend dropped out because he needed something that would pay his rent, others got involved, and we kept adding markets. Then a fantastic location next to Bake Sale Betty came open, so we jumped on it. Now I just need to figure out how to get it to the point where it can sustain itself so I can get back to recommendations engines!

Feel free to stop by and say hi. If you're serious about a career change, would be a better manager of a sorbet company than I am (not hard), and don't need to make much money, maybe we can work something out. I'm proud of the product quality, but I'm sure there are people who could run it as a better business than I can. :)
Adobe launches Carousel
For the record, this is how a lot of video game cheats work and it SUCKS. Aimbots in FPS games for example exist 100% out of the game executable so there is no way to stop it. The only option you have as a dev is to detect the behavior and ban with righteous fury.

It's both incredibly cool and wildly frustrating at the same time.
Agree this is the best approach.

But a word of warning on another line... don't be tempted to discuss your grievance with colleagues, no matter how much you like or trust them, talking down something is like a virus: it might get infectious, and the worst is that people start to see you as not really buying in to the whole project. Both are not good outcomes.

Think about it another way too, does it matter if you don't get it? It's not your idea anyway, but you can help make it great and gain experience from that. It'll help you when it comes to making your own thing work - which I feel is probably what you want to do.

Sisel International review - Can you sizzle with this opportunity?
My totally abstract reasoning is like this: For markets to function well, the barriers of entry must be as low as possible.

The possibility of HFT raises the barriers of entry. Therefore it causes at least some bad.

Personally, I think the markets should just operate at, say, 15 minute heartbeats. Anybody is open to place orders at any point in time in secret. Then, at a predetermined heartbeat time, all orders are revealed and some standard auctioning mechanism is used to match them up against each other.

Sure, spreads would be larger than they are now, but at the same time there would also be less volatility by definition. More importantly, barriers of entry would be much lower, which will cause the market to function closer to a "perfect market" over time.
DirectX calls are probably (or might be) still higher level than just graphic primitives. So maybe this approach only works for DirectX based games under certain circumstances.

Explain why what I said is ridiculous, or I'll discard your comment as nonsense.

If we don't have a technical solution for a problem (which we don't in this case), then regulation is appropriate. If and when we find a technical solution for this problem, then the legislation will be deprecated. Until that point, it is useful.

What is "ridiculous", is assuming that all problems have technical solutions.
