Have you looked into solutions with deeper integration? I am thinking of WebAssign. iirc they work with the textbook publishers to give more integrated problems (i.e. they would take a textbook problem like "What is the derivative of cos(3x) with respect to x" and would make 3 a magic variable such that each student would see a different problem such as "What is the derivative of cos(4x) with respect to x" or "What is the derivative of cos(5*x) with respect to x")
no, past year based on the time of infringement, not time of conviction, so if you pirate it June 25, 2011, you pay the cheapest price between June 26th, 2010 and June 25th 2011.

6How  to Drive Traffic to Your Blog
-- Stories of the Burroughs B5000, http://web.me.com/ianjoyner/Files/Waychoff.pdf

He devoted an entire session to the French Railroad payroll program. The French Rail- road had gone on an economy program and reduced their number of employees from 540,000 to 360,000. So that was the size of the payroll that was run on the computer in Paris. That payroll must be the most difficult payroll in the world to run. The size of the payroll is only the tip of the iceberg. An engineer’s (i.e. a train driver) salary is a function of the amount of power that he uses. So if he is on an uphill run, he makes more money than on a downhill run.
The employees live in government housing and their rent is deducted from their pay. People with a lot of dependents get more money than people with a few dependents. A vet- eran gets more money for each medal that he won in the war. The amount of money depends on the medal. A Purple Heart is worth more than a Sharpshooters medal.

Carcinogens mostly cause small increases in the probability of cancer. GP is right; the main cause of cancer is "being old". It's true that, if you eliminated every source of DNA damage and miscopying, cancer wouldn't happen; but even if you eliminated all external carcinogens, that wouldn't stop the process, just slow it a bit.
Advertising Revenues Expectations and Realities
Except it doesn't. Being unemployed isn't fun, it isn't "a holiday". Most people feel stressed because of that uncertainty in their life. There is also a strong social stigma associated with unemployment, no one goes around at a party gloating about being unemployed.

You should read up, or better yet talk to people, about retiring. So many people struggle with retirement. It is hard to find a new purpose for life after a big chunk of who you were is gone. Most people I have met tend to take up volunteer work, charity, running some hobby project or some other busywork (I know more than one person who retired into playing MMORPGs fulltime). Most hackers retire into one project or another.

If you have never been without a job, you have no idea. You are hardwired to seek social acceptance and reward and a job is the main way society says you should achieve that.

Granted (except Google) - but Twitter, Wikipedia and Craigslist are only big in comparison in terms of traffic. Most banks push more data through their network than most developers can conceive.

If you took all of the votes from the 2000 election in the United States (I'll save you the search - it was just over 100 million), it wouldn't even equal one day's ATM transactions in the U.S., and those transactions are a nonevent.

No, I expect the asserter to reference things that back their view up if they want me to believe it. Especially if the view is not obvious and controversial.

If your point of view has no data behind it that you are willing to reference besides a singular biased point of information, then I have no reason to believe you. (Hint, if you are read in an area, it's trivial to reference such things off the top of your head).

I've seen this happen at aerospace/defence companies, and at (incumbent) telephone companies. From the worker-bee standpoint, it's rubbish. Never changes a thing.

At an aerospace company in the late 80s, the "new company culture" was for "quality", that undefined something that would distinguish our products from their products. The new company culture consisted of putting up really pitiful posters, in contradiction to Deming's principle of not governing by poster. One of the posters said "Don't be a lemming, follow Deming!" My one regret is not stealing a copy of that poster.

It's not just regulation. It's a need to report at a granular level and slice data as many ways as possible. That's why Essbase is so popular, even though it's so poorly written.

Review: First 24 hours with the Amazon Kindle Fire
Copyright infringement is not shoplifting.
You know the question the VCs always ask: "What if google decided to attack your market, what would you do?" I guess it's a sad day for a couple of promising startups.
While that is just plain common sense, there are still problems. If the fine is no great hardship and your chance of getting caught is less than 1%, it's rational to always infringe rather than pay. Raising the rate of enforcement would be hard since $100 doesn't cover the court costs and thus the industry would be losing money on every case — even ones they win.
Either way, you're still left with the choice:

1) Pay $20 to see movie

2) Pirate movie and maybe have to pay $20 sometime later. Maybe.
Design Co-Founder Wanted (WA.TT)
WA.TT is a consumer website that helps people save money on their energy and go green in a simple, fun and social way.

We have brought on the founder of Pandora as an advisor, received funding from the cleantech accelerator GreenStart (3% acceptance rate) and are in the process of raising our seed round.

We are scrappy, hustle, work hard and believe in our goal to be the social energy platform, manage all of our users energy data, give them deep insights into their usage trends, provide them with unique personalized energy/money savings recommendations and manage their in-home and transportation energy hardware/appliances/electronics.

This is a massive market, $420b in residential energy savings by 2020 according to McKinsey, and with our technology we can rapidly scale to over 60 million households ASAP.

For the very first time our users can see all of the energy that powers their life in one simple location. The signup process takes 60 seconds and WA.TT automates everything from then on.

The energy information that we track includes:
-electricity (coal, nuclear, natural gas, hydro, wind, solar, etc)
-natural gas
-gasoline
-heating oil
-jet fuel
-emissions
-etc.

We are looking for a passionate and talented web and mobile interaction, UX/UI and pixel loving designer to help us present this massive amount of data to our users in a simple, fun and social way. Bonus points for front end HTML5/CSS/JS development experience.

You will be the third co-founder as we believe design is critical to our success and you will be compensated accordingly with equity and cash.

Interested in talking with us? Send us your portfolio, tell us a little bit about you and your motivations in joining the team. We are currently located in San Francisco, but the right designer can be located anywhere.

Don't worry. The RIAA/MPAA will be remedying this with another bill after they ram SOPA through.
Mine as well. Also an anecdote, but we had the same results. I'm definitely planning on raising my kids the same way.
More like "stop a bill from being passed into law which may shut down us and the rest of the internet as you know it" - do you have any idea how much labor it would take to be a search engine, video site or social networking site if you were liable for the legal status of all user-created content? Practically every site you use would go under, including the one we're on right now.
He's arguing that "everyone is doing it" isn't proof that something is good.
> If everyone started shoplifting, for example, it wouldn't indicate a problem with the laws that people are now criminals.

Yes it would. Laws are not “good” or “bad” in a vacuum; they’re just the written-down versions of agreed-upon social relations – specifically, agreed upon by whoever in the society has enough social and economic power (and in a democracy, votes) to get a law enacted and enforced.

At the point where “everyone” was shoplifting, we’d be in some kind of social situation where the strictures against stealing had completely broken down. This happens sometimes, for example in rebellions or disaster zones. When there’s a revolution and a mass of people loot, throw out, kill, etc. existing power-holders, it quite clearly “indicates a problem” with the previous set of laws in the society, no matter how vehemently those elites protest. Usually, in modern democracies, we have enough mutual respect and a sufficiently broad distribution of power that things don’t get to the point of complete breakdown of order.

In this particular example, where there are fines in the $100Ks for something that most people have done and don’t consider bad, there’s quite clearly a problem with the law.
Why My Variables are Final
And if I could see that vote, that would mean something. But votes are invisible here.
Not really, no. Laws should fit the society, not the other way around. Laws that lock up everyone are unjust laws, no matter the crime. Everything else would be a misguided adherence to laws.
It's hardly rebelling, it is about working when it makes sense to work, not because the clock says it is time to work.

We're just finishing up harvest here. Are you going to shut down at five because the clock says it is time to go home? Of course not. You keep going until the field is done. It might be raining in the morning. You can rest later.

I find creative and technical roles to suffer from the same limitations. You have to be in the right mindset to produce quality work. You can't always count on the clock.

Do what works for you, but if you are only doing it to please someone else, you are cheating both them and you.
ah brilliant. I like that
Microsoft ready to unveil new public-private cloud-migration tools, strategy
Goddammit, I knew someone was going to trot that line out.

You see, I never said copyright infringement was shoplifting, or related to shoplifting, in any way. Just because someone uses the words "copyright" and "shoplifting" in the same post doesn't mean that they are saying copyright infringement is shoplifting.

In my above post shoplifting was only an example. My post makes just as much as sense if I replace shoplifting with murder and copyright infringement with cannabis possession. Or shoplifting with arson and copyright infringement with being left handed.

The underlying logic I quoted is what was wrong, not the categorisation, so stop jerking your knee.
No, that's about right. It would make YouTube legally responsible for all user-created content. According to YouTube's press statistics, 48 hours of video are uploaded every minute. If you were to hire a team of people to watch all the videos and make sure they aren't copyrighted, you'd need 2,880 people working around the clock - and that's just to keep up with the NEW videos, letalone the backlog of stuff that's already there. At my state's minimum wage (~$10/hr) that's $691,200 per day in additional operating costs, or $252.5 million per year... Of course they could off-shore that to cut costs, but it'd still be ridiculous.
These tools remind me of the Icy Hot Stuntaz: http://stuntaz.cjb.net/
Iunno, I'm not necessarily defending Flash's merits to the end user, but for the developer, AS3 along with what the Flash API provides are in many ways more advanced than even the latest browser-native technologies. Keep in mind browser implementations of canvas, css animations, audio APIs, authoring tools are still far from standardized. Of course, I look forward to when the situation improves in the coming years, but it's hardly comparable IE6 in my opinion.

The problem with x86 is when you scale the chips to N cores you have N copy's of all that dead weight. You might not save many transistors by say dropping support for 16 bit floats relative to how much people would hate you for doing so. However, there are plenty of things you can drop from a GPU or vector processor and when you start having 100's of them it's a real issue.

Still with enough of a process advantage and enough manpower you can end with something like the i7 2600 which has a near useless GPU and a ridiculous pin count and still dominates all competition in it's price range.
Microsoft makes the vast majority of their money selling licenses. So does the entertainment industry.

For years these industries (software, music, and video) grew to massive size by exploiting cheap duplication of digital goods and control over distribution channels. Now that further advancing technology has brought duplication and distribution to the masses they are franticly trying to regain control.

The opposing tech companies sell services and advertising. Copyright infringement largely doesn't affect their bottom-line and these proposed measures will be costly for them to implement and legally difficult for them to follow.
This is actually the larger issue -- that piracy isn't viewed as something that should be illegal. The fines are just a detail of applicable punishment, and exorbitantly high fines are a distraction.

I see Tracker as a prioritization tool first and a way to capture stories second. It is highly opinionated about and focused on prioritization but leaves the details of story writing and the conversations apolzon is looking for up to you.

I like this balance and aim for brief story titles with descriptions which include the "As a <role>, I want <goal/desire> so that <benefit>" style requirements, implementation concerns, and other acceptance criteria. I could certainly see a place for a more opinionated story writing tool though. Especially for team who struggle to produce actionable stories.

I also see a Tracker story as a placeholder for a conversation which needs to happen. Not as a good tool for mediating that conversation in the story comments and attachments.

While watching I was thinking that this would be a much more informative graphic way to show someone what the weather was like in a particular location. I've always looked at those average temperature or precipitation graphs when deciding when to make a trip somewhere far away. If you could visualize every day of the year on a grid like this your brain would just see the "best" time to visit based on what you're looking for.

Sure but how is that different from now? aside from the cost of the fine, there really isn't, and I'd argue that the specter of a large fine is having little effect on piracy anyway.
I think one of the key aspects in Mexico is Culture, by definition Work is where you are 8 hours a day, as you said finding someone that can manage its time without supervision its nearly impossible, let alone completing a task. A great point you mention is to gather around in a community and share our ideas and knowledge, running a business in Mexico, specially a technology related business can be overly complex.
Clever concept, and it really shows off a lot of shell techniques in one place. The self-modifying aspect is fun to study (e.g. external-add, ext_insert), and the meta functions are interesting too (e.g. require). I may find this useful sometime, and in the meantime it makes me smile.

In my own small way, I too have used self-modify shell scripts, though nothing as far-reaching as what you've done. When I write C code, I use a "build" script instead of "make":

https://github.com/chkoreff/Fexl/blob/master/src/build

(Never mind Fexl itself, I'm just sharing the build script here.)

The build script analyzes all the .c files in the current directory and automatically creates another "build" script in the ../obj directory. It then runs ../obj/build. But the next time you run it, it sees that ../obj/build already exists, so it doesn't need to analyze the .c files again.

Again, it's nothing quite like what you've done, but it just illustrates how fun and useful self-modifying shell scripts can be.
