> If you can't identify the original, then actually you can't sell it (in the sense of it's not possible).

But if I can identify the original file given to me by iTunes, in the same sense that I can identify the CD, why can't I sell that original? Because of what I may/can do?

To ask it in RIAA parlance: If something gives me a license, should I not be allowed to sell that something?

And if you would answer no, I'd ask why can't I sell the CD?

I respect your work and achievements and I agree, a lot of people who have accomplished something do NOT brag about it.

Coincidentally, a LOT of people who have accomplished pretty much nothing do brag and write and blog a LOT about it... often to great success. So, it is just fair to ask what references, credits and medals this big-mouthed blogger has to show for all his very big words of "making a way" and being better than 99% of the population.
well, I might be cynical, but do your really thinks he's 100% honest when saying that?
I use this too, but does it really have push notifications?

I have always heard, and also seen, that no push notifications is the main drawback from setting it up like this.
Programmers in successful startups (like the ones producing the demos you mention) ignore what people tell them that they can't do. They just try and they get something done. Then they iterate as long as "the demo's ui sucks" is the number one problem.

Probably the designs are sourced from their experiences. Just like you, many of them have seen beautiful sites. It's not impossible to find a few you like and mix/match design elements plus some of your own originality to produce your own variant.

Wow, this is incredible. Assuming it isn't crazy expensive, I'd put this on everything from my car to my walls.

I do kind of wonder how you'd wash clothes coated in this, though. It would be kind of tricky if dirt can get into the fibers but water can't.

Edit: Also, I would love to prank a bartender at my local watering hole by spraying this on his bar rag when he's not looking :)
You're right in that Halo 3 still managed to achieve mainstream success (it sold nearly twice as many copies as its predecessor), but sales are a lagging indicator of support and H3 was released to a very fertile market; the console wars were in full effect and GOW, a non fps, was the 360's only big hitter.

As for your question, this type of thing is far more suited for incremental updates a la modern MMOs. Make the game free on psn/marketplace and charge a cheap annual subscription fee with trials to hook casual users in and you a have a recipe for success. Place a huge emphasis on community and competition so that hardcore players become heavily invested (from all ends of the personality spectrum), be an extremely active presence on your (robust) online community and listen to fans who understand your game. A fact that I think is lost on many developers is that, while catering to the casual crowd over the competitive seems like it should be better business, what casual players put in their disk tray day after day is largely dictated by what they see when they check out their friends list, and if a hardcore player spends eight hours a day online, guess what's going to quickly become every casual player's go to game?
> My staff like me, I pay top of market (sometimes 10x market pay, if the person is worth it but short-changed due to supply and demand),

"working for a fraction of his normal cost by being very fucking cool with him"

This is just one of the many contradictions that become very obvious when reading a few of your posts.

> They're partners, not employees.

You actually think this is a justification? Even WORSE! While as the boss, you might get away with lashing out and being arrogant to your employees because, hey, you are the boss and pay their salaries and employees sometimes let their boss get away with being an idiot. But you got yourself into a business arrangement with people you consider friends (IMHO a major mistake) and they are your partners you might have to work with through some actually really tough times and as soon as the going gets just a little rough, you show your true nature and start being a lecturing a*hole? If you continue like this, this endeavor will not last through the first actual crisis - and if you think what you are facing NOW is a crisis (oh dear a project is off by a few weeks! never happened in IT!!) then oh boy are you in for some surprises.

I am sorry, you strike me as the person and type of leader that is a GREAT leader (in his own mind) as long as things are going great, easy, worry-free and without any trouble but at the first sign of complications, exactly when your leader skills should actually come into play, you snap and start flinging poo and blame.

You do EXACTLY what you call "being a joker". You write and blog and whine but you did NOT do what it takes to get the job done. And by your standards and set goals, you did NOT get it done. Do you honestly think Hannibal only had DEVGRU-quality SEALs in his army and it was no struggle for him? Think about it. You frakked up just as much as they have, likely much more because you knew something wasn't going right and you did nothing until now where you ridicule them.
I think it is one of two:

1. They hired a designer to work with them.
2. They have become good at design themselves.

It’s kinda obvious when you think about it.

I disagree. You can always better yourself in everything. Learning from books, videos and other sources works in every other field, why should it not in sex?

Its the same as with everthing else on the internet (and of the internet for that matter) you have to always think critically, even if the content is wrong you can still learn. If you listen to Fox News for example you can learn alot about what technics the media uses, because Fox uses them totally obviously.

Therefore, most people that are trying to mimic Steve Jobs are just douche bags without taste, without the electrifying personality and without the track record.

Just because they don't do PR for themselves the way that, presumably, you do, doesn't mean they should be dismissed out-of-hand.

I saw on reddit someone pointing out the big question there, does this leave fabrics breathable?

TBH, their site is pretty light on details.
From reading through the various responses on this post, I believe one very feasible and worthwhile solution to asynchronous UIs is to maintain what has been referred to as a transaction log somewhere in the UI for the user to be able to see containing all requests and their subsequent status/response message when the proper event fires. This would assume that any actionable items would trigger immediate changes to your UI in favor of the "success" case. It would be up to you as to whether you'd like to revert that scenario in the scenario that a failure occurs in an event response.

This would remove the dreaded "blocked UI" scenario because everything appears to happen instantaneously, however there would be failsafes in place when something goes wrong (the infrequent scenario).

To me it seems more a matter of order reversal in how we handle AJAX calls (assuming you aren't using an async/evented system).

I can, however, think of downsides. Take, for instance, a scenario where you may have a nested tree of actionable items that may have prerequisites on the other's completion. You could chain the events, but you might end up with a queue unbeknownst to the end user. Worse, a failure might occur at the parent level which leads to failures for all subsequent calls. I myself am not sure what the good alternative to this might be in terms of non-blocking UIs.

I consider DBA-level skills as the ability to read an execution plan, figure out what indexes are being used, know the difference between a good plan and a bad one, and figure out how to rewrite your query to get the performance & plan you want without just adding indexes willy-nilly. Another good example would be knowing when it's right to normalize tables versus flattening out the data structures - you can't just knee-jerk and normalize everything because it's the best practice.

I wouldn't say that developers need to know about HA/DR, replication, memory tuning, SAN setups, etc, though. Just the how-queries-work and how-data-is-stored angles.

Thanks for the compliments! I had fun doing that one.

If they'd done this 3 years ago and focused on building kick-ass Flex development environments/authoring tools/etc, Flex would actually have been worth donating at that point.

I don't think I'm quite sure what this is trying to do - can anyone explain? It seems they want to make a distributed DNS system based on the model of BitCoin - P2P keys that identify the nameservers for certain domains? This would avoid the regulation of SOPA.

But there's no way to be certain because I can't make heads or tails of that spec page LoL.

It's an iteration of an RFC for Namecoin: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2546815

I think the point of the story is not so much the details of the novel content in this RFC - I find it hard to take seriously an RFC with passages such as "I would suggest that Verisign offer [us the .bit and .nmc tlds] as a gesture of good faith so that we can profit all profit from strengthening the original intent of DNS and the potentially criminal monopoloy handed to them by the US Government" - but as pointing out that there is movement in Namecoin and asserting that Namecoin is relevant to the whole SOPA deal.

There's a popup on backify.com now asserting some quite different details of this story. Who's telling the truth... who knows.

"LiveDrive Account Closures

As all Backify members know now, LiveDrive has closed all the accounts. We would like to clear the situation up with our customers.

As many of you know, you were unable to change/reset your password for the last 10 days or so. This was due to an error in the LiveDrive API. We made multiple contacts with LiveDrive through email and phone to get this sorted out. Their tech support kept us saying that their "dev team" is working on it. But the "dev team" could not sort out the issue in 10 days.

Apart from this, their payment system failed on November 8. What that means is, we could not create any more new accounts, because their payment system kept declining all of our credit cards. Again, we contacted LiveDrive multiple times, but they could not sort out the issue in over 7 days.

We contacted them again yesterday and protested with strong words about the delay in providing a solution to our problems. We asked them to either resolve the issues, or to close our account and refund us. They responded today by terminating our reseller account and all the accounts we have created.

As for the email they sent to our customers, we assure you that you do not have to worry about your credit cards being used fraudulently. We did not store your credit card numbers in our system. And about the payments that you have already made, we will refund all of them over the next few business days. You do not need to file any disputes or chargebacks with PayPal or your bank."

Yes -- apache mainly has projects centered around Java and C/C++. Flex seems like a re-do of Java (from the VM to the API). Sure, they won't reject a given horse (or cat), but I don't see that much reason for them to actively maintain this.
I don't get why did they have to replace DNS with some kind of JSON hack which "mostly" supports the same records. There are already a bunch of alternative DNS roots[1] with their own TLDs which work fine with the existing DNS software.
