On a (loosely) related note, dividing Europe to West/East (perhaps Central) is purely political (it follows Berlin Wall[1]). For example, countries of V4[2] are in the middle[3] and yet they are called Eastern Europe. Another reason might be that most of the East is covered by Russia.

Israel, voting for Asia. I am looking for fellow Israeli developers who want to hack on a startup at night.
FWIW, it might help if the site mentioned what 'South Asians' means. Not everyone is necessarily familiar with that term.

I've never heard it used here in Australia. We don't have a term for that area. I had to look it up (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/South_Asia).

(I've emailed them this feedback).

Twitter's Bootstrap passes Rails on GitHub, now on NodeJS's tail
In my case, I am the one buying the kits. I have many NXT 2.0 kits and also a nice environment for hardware production with the arduino platform (with everything even an oscilloscope). Usually, the Legos are used for the younger kids, and if they are more attracted to building stuff than programming then they fork into the open hardware tracks.
My advice is to work through projects. Just how real life works, and what the kids find more interesting: there is a problem to solve or an specification on what they want to build, and from that you and them sit down, organize your thoughts, make the design, and then build it, test it, improve it. They love it, it works very well, and keeps you doing very very interesting stuff always with something different. A completely hands on experience, and they learn by doing.
As for which arduino kit you would use, anyone will do it. But when they are just starting with arduino, maybe it's better to keep it simple (but always as a part of solving a problem, not doing it to "learn how to turn a LED on"). The best thing is to locate a store and work always with them, so look at what kits they have and choose from there. That's how I do it here in Germany, and worked very well.
If you yourself have no experience on arduino or open hardware, I recommend you to choose some book to build little projects from it, so your choice of the kit will be dictated by the kit used on the book.
Anyway, congrats for the teaching!
If I was near Germany at all I'd go to the workshop. I'm building my first Prusa with some friends this weekend. Hopefully everything will go well with our build. Best of luck with your workshop :).

Dropbox- How to sync faster
Not a bad idea at all. Gui wrappers for osx, and later linux and windows would be an awesome way to allow this to be used by less tech saavy people in the future. I suspect an osx cocoa wrapper would be pretty easy to write. We also plan to build out a web front-end that allows users to browse,edit,and upload files from right within their browser.

As I wrote above, I like it a lot, too. It's a very simple, clean language without any silly flourishes, a good implementation and easily added to most projects.

But in your average web shop, the chances of finding someone who has already worked with it is pretty low, whereas JavaScript itself runs at about 100%. And I firmly believe that this is the biggest reason for the popularity of NodeJS. Not the concept (cf. eventlet, EventMachine, POE etc.), but the fact that you've been offered a simple package where you don't have to learn anything really new.

Still, I'm grateful for an extended toolkit myself, and I'm looking forward to what people can do with coroutines and tables to make the programming experience more pleasant.
So you want to find a co-founder for your startup
'"Share your papers" solves a problem no academic has. But getting notifications when anyone from a list of people I know shares a paper would be genuinely useful.'

Indeed when I worked for http://philpapers.org this was quoted by users as the main reason to use it.
It will probably make me look pathetic (angry nerd maybe), but I don't have a tablet and I don't use much my smartphone, if not for calling people.

I found these devices to be very uncomfortable for my tipical usage. The only good addon I've got in my smartphone was the GPS navigation.

I could never browse the internet on a smartphone and I could never look at a tablet more than 30mins while also being comfortable in using it.

And if I had to plug in into a tablet a standard keyboard and a nicer monitor to make it "usable", I would rather buy some mini PC.
Yes, I know. And from an abstraction level, it's really cool that it works that way. But when you are operating on the same node, asynchronous message passing is sometimes an awkward and less performant solution. It's strictly weaker than synchronous message passing, which means you never have any assurance that the other process received your message. Message passing can also be less performant than properly protected usage of shared memory, which transactional memory allows.

Erlang's popularity for concurrent programming probably comes down to the fact that anything is better than manually managed locks and until recently there weren't any widely-used industrial languages that used synchronous message passing or transactional memory. I don't think it's any coincidence, though, that the designers of more recent concurrent languages like Go and Clojure have not followed the Erlang model.
Can you crack it?

Adam Bain Interview: How Twitter Is Making Money
The Art of Cryptography 
What do the Roman Caesar, American Indigenous People and a British Park have in common? They are all part of the history of cryptography.

The Caesar Cypher and Caesar Square are cryptographic methods which where applied by Julius Caesar because he was afraid/ knew that his opponents could read his messages by intercepting the messengers. So he explained his future-to-be-communicated-to-encrypted contacts how his encryption method works so that they could decrypt it one they get the apparently obfuscated looking message. The Navajo Indians had a native language which was not close to any widely spoken language. This advantage and the small area where this language was spoken (only their part in America where they live) made them a perfect target for the US cryptographic division during the Second World War. They could communicate via radio with each other (e.g. between ships of the same battle-group) and the opposing forces would not understand what they are saying. The low degree of resemblance with other languages would have only left the opponents with the option to capture one Navajo alive and threat him into translating for you. The British ‘park’ also known as Bletchley Park was the national intelligence and cypher/ cryptography division during the second World War. Enigma (even though most vital work was done in Poland) had been decrypted here.

The rise of the anti-social web
Turkiye
"""Why would that happen? Tablets are simply low power PCs wrapped in a touchscreen LCD. If these tablets were optimized for performance instead of battery life many of them could outperform most consumer PCs. My point is that PCs won't disappear, their functionality will simply transition into tablets as they become capable. A tablet + keyboard + mouse = a PC""".

It's not that simple. What you describe is desktop PC vs laptop.

Tablets on the other hand have different operating systems (at least the only tablet that people > 1% actually buy, the iPad) than PCs.

We can imagine a feature where most people use tablets, perhaps equally capable as any PC, but WITHOUT today's full PC OS flexibility, and PCs are left for only small professions (programmers, creatives, etc).

I'm curious about which carriers.

"I understand that this project is very immature compared to Node.js"

Good thing you added "compared" there, because I wouldn't call Node.js exactly "mature".
You missed my point - you cannot blame the B-engineers if the founder cannot recognize B-grade work and/or doesn't do anything about it - like firing the B-grade engineers, hiring at least one A-player, fixing it by themselves, etc...

Blame is easy to pass like that, but it seems to me like this startup is bound to die because of a lack of action, more than anything else.

And regarding your opinion, there have been many individuals able to move mountains by themselves when starting out. And there have been many teams of A-players that failed because of irreconcilable differences between them (i.e. too much testosterone, lack of leadership, lack of vision, etc...) - a book I loved reading on this subject is "Dreaming in Code": http://www.dreamingincode.com/

You're right, it carries a more negative point of view. But for me that´s what really gets me going: remembering that I´ll be dead in the future prompts me to enjoy this day to its fullest.

Also, it helps not to stress so much over anything.. it´s of course a slippery slope towards cynicism, but I can handle that.
I think theoretically you can make it quite good, but it's not going to be a simple task and you probably can't rely on purely the fans' recording. I think the best way would be to modulate them together based on a weighting depending on position or distance away from where the music is coming from, also discarding distorted recordings etc. That said, you probably only want this lightly mixed in along with a good recording from the desk, all adjusted for the viewing angle.

Traditionally in Scheme all data structures are mutable (the PLT folks made the gutsy move of making conses immutable only recently and they're basically the only ones doing that, I think), so no difference there. But both Lua and JavaScript are organized around hashtables rather than lists; maybe that's the biggest difference data structure-wise.

I saw the death of a motorist. We were on the mountains, he was at more than 120mph in the straight part of the road(he passed over us), and as he took a curve super fast, a van appeared on the other side of the road. Instant dead, looking at him was the most horrible vision in my life. His friends(also riders) will came later and cry.

It is strange, three people I knew from my college died on a very small motorcycle with a very small curb on the road(two young girls and one boy, no helmet). I could not believe it, it made no sense for three people to die on such a small danger(I have seen MBT riders so much times do things x10000 more dangerous).

Four young men and women from my village also died as they return from a Spanish fiesta on the night.

In the North of Spain and Portugal non official "rallies" are the first cause of dead on young people.

What is strange is that until looking at this map, I strangely believed those accidents were "special", but it seems there are not.
the division could also be based on the population density. in the west it's higher -> the east-west boundary is to the west..

I'm applying for the Entrepreneur First scheme. What do you think of it?
The real matter is what definition of 'pro bono' they're taking. Many lawyers defer payment (and won't charge if they lose) until after the completion of proceedings, however you still have to pay for disbursements (IE, filing with the court, photocopies of documents, etc) which can run into the thousands.

By the fact he paid cash and said he's not worried about getting the money back, I'm guessing he's not short on cash. Most people who are short on cash don't pursue legal action because they see it as costing too much.

For me the biggest misssing feature of all approaches to online folder synchronisation (including Dropbox, in a sad way) is secure backend encryption. For me, this includes an open source client and a free choice, where to store my files. Ideally I could have several decrypting clients to work with my files, while an arbitrary amount of encrypted clients would store my files on various backends, one of which could be a company offering this as service.

It also depends on the definition of duress. Is it how much pain the person is in (which is a psychological perception), or how life-threatening their condition is.

This guy had a severe tooth ache and I can't really gather much more FTA for what he actually had. However, there's cracked teeth and abscesses that dentists see frequently that are expected to be much more painful.

I personally just don't feel dental pain, so what are the grounds for duress with me. I found out I'd had 5 cavities, potentially for over a year (it had been around 2 years since my last dental visit because of moving country and having no benefit plan) and I had no clue.
