Bas thank you for the link; I gave that plugin a try before going back to Eclipse. Unfortunately the workflow of actually using it is terrible for someone that formats frequently (like I do).

I can't find older bugs, but the most recent one was this one:
http://youtrack.jetbrains.net/issue/IDEA-28895?query=voted+b...

I don't know what happened between the report and the fix in 10.x, but I didn't notice changed behavior. The formatter still didn't wrap correctly for me and indent.

For example, take this:

/* This is a really long line */

and turn it into:

/*
* This is a really
* long line.
*/

IIRC what it did was break the line but not prefix it with star, or it prefixed it but put no space between star and the chars... something like that.

It also didn't handle longer // comments well from what I remember and most importantly would mangle the HTML embedded in my Javadoc comments.

These are little touches that Eclipse takes care to handle... like ul-li lists inside of Javadoc that it will leave as a list and not try and compact down into a run on sentence.

Or things like p-tags formatted nicely as paragraphs.

I literally just want the default formatter from Eclipse in IJ and I'd be a happy camper.

I am surprised more people don't notice these discrepancies, but I don't want to be the only one pestering the IJ team for these fixes. They have plenty of other things to work on.

As I said I like to write a lot of comments; so I notice this more than most. I don't think I represent the norm here.

This makes no sense. You hired software engineers that could only program in PHP? Shows he had no clue about hiring.

I somehow just ended up on GigaOM's daily digest email. That's no biggie. However, they've got some sort of bug on their end that has caused them to email the daily digest 38 times in the last hour. It is quite annoying.

EDIT: make that 45 times.

There's a big gap between someone who does something morally wrong and being an evil person. My income is not increased because I made a decision to deny someone health care. I am not profiting from making decisions to deny coverage to someone. Insurance companies do though. At least, for profit ones do.

My statement wasn't that it is wrong to profit from doing something other than provide health care. My statement is the it is wrong to profit from denying someone care. I have not denied anyone care and I have not increased my income as a result of such denial.

You appear not to understand what profit is and your statement regarding a basic understanding of economics is ironic given this. Your response would have been better without resorting to such a tactic.

Your last paragraph is disconcerting to me. There is much wrong with your position. People do things that are against their long term interests. People sometimes do things they don't want to do. People can be manipulated into doing things they regret. Humans, are by and large, not rational. Part of the purpose of a society is having share responsibilities. To share our burdens. It is sometimes advisable for society as a whole to look out for our long term interests and this is a good thing.

Sure. Ruby has its warts too. Conceptually I find it cleaner than Python overall but I don't think it's possible to design a useful language without making some mistakes along the way. There seems to be two kinds of programming languages: the beautiful ones nobody uses and the messy ones people use to get things done.

I hope they are judged harshly for this incident. If they are blasting cannon balls through peoples houses and cars they have no control of what they are doing. Sending balls of cast iron through habitated areas cannot be dismissed as an "unfortunate incident". In my country (Norway) you'd immediately get arrested and charged if you fired a live cannon outside a big millitary shooting range. I certainly hope that their celebrity status won't impede justice in this case.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_dispatch#Common_Lisp

I tend to prefer the (defmethod) form in CL. You get generic functions which can retrieve the function object specialized for the parameters with (find-method). You also get the auxiliary method goodness...

But the great thing with Python that the article shows is that there's probably a way you can get those things in Python too if you needed them.

So does Python have multiple dispatch or can you just implement it?

Save as much as you can. Be prepared to work very long hours, back to the 100+ hour routine. Downsize everything so your runway is longer. Be prepared to spend less time with your family and with your wife.

My honest opinion, let your side company SLOWLY (read: years) draw you out. You never know what can happen (good or bad), God works in mysterious ways.

What is the quality of the traffic from stumble upon? One of my sites gets about 80% of it's traffic from stumble upon but it's terrible traffic. Nobody goes past the front page and nobody registers. In my case, it's nice for vanity (higher visit count) but useless otherwise.

However, if you want to boost that traffic, the best way is with stumble upon paid advertising. I'm sure they will say it doesn't, but running a paid campaign greatly boosts your 'organic' stumble upon traffic, in my experience (I've done several experiments with several sites). Plus, it's really cheap.
I've sent you across some feedback. It's all well intended ;-)
He checked in the code without permission.

Once it was in there, they didn't roll it back for some reason -- probably because a lot of folks secretly liked the feature and killing it would have been politically difficult. So the User Interface people (why you have these on a command shell is beyond me) were given a chance to pee in the feature for a bit, until they liked the flavor, and it shipped. My cow-orker got into some hot water.

Not wishing for it, just wondering if that's the right thing to do.
Out of curiosity, how do you hire/find the best community managers?

I was watching 'The Pixar Story' the other day and they talked about the campus they opened in 2000. Jobs talked about the importance of 'unplanned interactions' and workplace being key to the success of a creative company.

http://www.armchaircommentary.com/2011/10/amazon-goes-to-pix...

"Main Building

The Pixar campus opened in 2000. It was built on the location of an old canning factory and the factory vibe inspired the architecture. Steve Jobs, one of the Pixar founders was heavily involved in the design. He wanted Pixar's main building to serve as a central gathering place where employees would come several times a day to interact and share ideas. In service of this goal a cafeteria, coffee shop and the employee mail room were clustered within steps of each other within the atrium of the main building. Pixar lore is that Jobs was so obsessed with the idea of all employees venturing to this area at least once a day that he advocated for only having one bathroom on the campus. He was overruled."
I had it a few years back. I had fever with headaches and couldn't eat much because I kept puking after every meal. I got admitted to hospital and they found that my platelet count was dropping as well. They were preparing for the possibility that I would need to get a blood transfusion when it stabilized and started improving. Apparently, they were waiting for the count to drop below a certain threshold and mine started recovering just above that value.

They are at a firing range, it says right in the article "Camp Parks Military Firing Reservation". Apparently the cannonball hit one or two hills before entering the town. They weren't even firing in the direction of the town.

In my country (Norway) you'd immediately get arrested and charged if you fired a live cannon outside a big millitary shooting range.

They did fire this in a "big military shooting range". The problem is that it didn't stay confined to the range.

Actually I'd say the range is at least partly responsible for this. They shouldn't have allowed a cannon to be fired that had the energy to go beyond the confines of the range.

>"I'm worried they're teaching a whole generation of kids that science is inherently dangerous."

Hmm, I don't know about you, but I would like kids to practice 'dangerous science' and grow up to be scientists, rather than to grow up and enter the financial sector to play with billions of dollars that aren't theirs and end up crippling the economy for everyone else.

Having the mindset of 'minimizing harm to self and others' is mostly expected in dangerous science, but unfortunately it seems to be optional in the financial sector.
They would have been at a bomb range .. and funny as it may seem, accidents do happen. Wait for the full report before slamming the book on them.
Actually, I think they've gone downhill, but not quite for this reason. I'd be quite happy to see them act daring. But it seems to me that at the same time they've done this, they've tried to keep the viewers out of trouble by refusing to disclose the details of the experiment. One example is when they were doing "exploding pants", they wouldn't reveal the proportions of the various chemicals that they used.

I understand why they do this. However, for a show whose theme is supposed to be discovering truth by questioning, this attitude of "we know best, and you can trust us to do it right" seems wrong. And for me, it spoils the whole show.
Surely the right thing to do is to write your systems in such a way that you can pull out (say) a file-system explorer written in flex and replace it with one written in JS in as easy a manner as possible.

After all, if you don't provide the good user experience in 2007 (when it might not have been possible to do so in JS) then you won't be around in 2011 to complain about technology having moved on.

Heck, it might require less effort overall to write it once in Flex, and then rewrite it in JS four years later than it would have done to write it in JS in 2007 and then keep it up to date with a changing JS landscape over that time.

And you can't ever be sure that you picked the technology on the right side. So design your systems so that it doesn't matter which side wins, you can adjust to the new reality and keep going.

It's not a subset of static typing at all.

If multimethods were a subset of static typing, then regular methods would be too. Methods are dynamic by definition: the type of the method's target is inspected at runtime and used to dispatch to the correct function entry. In Python, it's explicitly stated because the first argument of all object methods is "self". Multimethods extend this to do dynamic dispatch on all argument types, not just the target object.

Most Python object methods are declared at compile time; this doesn't make method declaration a "subset of static typing". You can add new methods to classes and objects at runtime using Python's reflection and introspection; you can just as easily add new multimethods at runtime using this framework.

Finally, the @decorator(...) syntax at compile time is just syntactic sugar for something like the following:

def _foo(self, arg):
...
foo = decorator()(_foo)

So you can use decorators at runtime whenever you want too.
The cost of switching to a different name isn't $0, though. Both the cost and added complexity is significant. Some considerations:

* Cost of finding and registering a different trademark that's available worldwide.

* Cost of developing new marketing materials.

* Cost of tweaking software to use new name.

* Cost of tweaking production lines to print new name on devices and packaging.

* Cost of lost sales due to customer confusion (Chinese traveling to America; Foreigners traveling to China).

One mishap in eight years* is a very good record, the Mythbusters put a LOT of time and energy into safety and it was clearly an accident, they obviously weren't being reckless.

I dont have any firm numbers but i'm pretty sure that more space debris and meteorites fall from space every year than mishaps from Mythbusters.

That sounds promising. I'll take a look.

Yeah. Real OCD is no joke. It is a terrible illness.
And I don't get angry over bad formatting either :)
Absolutely! I hadn't heard it articulated as cleanly, but the "Thrill of the build" is exactly what attracted me to the show.

I enjoyed watching them try to come up with "How in the heck are we going to make this thing", along with calling car-lots, and the other stuff that they have the budget to avoid, or the producers do off-scene.

It reminded me a lot of Junkyard wars, when I first started watching it, but more authentic, since they weren't using a stocked field ;)
