WebID to rescue:

Technology that implemented in every browser right now (certificates) + compatibility with stuff like USB dongles, smart cards, that have also been available for some time now. Oh and no, you don't need a CA. Problem solved?

http://www.w3.org/2005/Incubator/webid/

Only thing left is using it and making browsers more friendly towards that approach. This mainly involved getting rid of scary technical warnings.

Until then I will use password maker, which isn't a store but creates the correct password when needed:

The Anatomy of a perfect Website [Infographic]
Websites need a formula – a vivid blueprint that painstakingly weaves technicality, design and detail into something iconic and memorable. Without it, most wouldn’t function for more than a moment and they certainly wouldn’t impress. You may have navigation and usability down, but in today’s fast paced climate you’ll crash and burn without social media. What about SEO, where would it be without content? These are all the things we have to consider, if we are to succeed – from vital tracking and analytics to the often disregarded footer, every detail oils the machine. With that in mind, we bring you the Anatomy of a Perfect Website...

I made the 3.6 to 7/8 switch only a few months ago.

Here are some extensions I found critical to my sanity to keeping things somewhat familiar:

Status-4-Evar <<<<<<------------ a must
Add-ons Manager Dialog Returns
Back/forward dropmarker
Restore View Source for Firefox 6+

and

Firefox 3 theme for Firefox 4+ (v2.0)

Then once you are in FF8 treat yourself to extensions you can only running in FF8+ like Font Information which shows you what fonts are being used on the page in the page info dialog.

Now my FF8 looks a lot like 3.6 but works several times faster.

Ian Eslick put it interestingly (http://ianeslick.com/using-100-of-your-brain):

"If we really want to become smarter, we will have to resort to the hard work of building more effective representations within the existing processing capabilities of our brain. Modern neuroscience backs me up here (e.g. summary in nice NPR interview); the process of compiling our experience into higher and higher order patterns that we use to structure future experience is what makes the judgement of experts more efficient than that of a novice (not always more effective, as the higher order patterns can also limit our generative abilities)."

You can be a very effective developer (at least in certain contexts) without building robust mental representations which allow you to assimilate newer techniques easily. And there can be cases where this is an advantage.

So more concretely, people recommend learning tools like Lisp, to give your mind mind practice with a more abstract, meta way of working. (So you can explore and rejigger new ideas without necessarily writing a classical compiler and idiosyncratic language from scratch.)
What about HTML5? A LOT of HTML5.

Firefox/Gecko has support for tons of HTML5 features that Chrome/Webkit doesn't support (or didn't until recently).

I wish some things would be pushed faster from Aurora into the other branches.

The only thing I dislike about Firefox is that there are a number of CSS1 features that still aren't supported. I just know Opera supports them, so I am not sure about the others. One can't style some form parts. There has been a bug report for this for ages.

Oh and to all web developers out there: Start checking for features, instead of browsers, PLEASE! It's so annoying to always read "Your browser doesn't support XY" when that's not true, because I am using a recent release, beta or the aurora branch of Firefox.
I've known a few people with Anorexia Nervosa. Not just "skip a few meals, look a bit thin" anorexia, but "detained in hospital against their will in wheel-chairs with forced NG tube feeding BMI of 14" anorexics.

It's pretty scary that they describe very similar feelings as you do, and you only did that for a few weeks.

Also, people with bulimia tend to be overweight exactly because of the cycle of fasting and binging that you describe.

I'm pleased for you that you got a good result, and I'm grateful that you stressed the riskiness.
This has been fixed in Firefox 10 (or 9?). Until then you could use this extension:

I agree with this and with "drats" comment here, too.

For someone new to Linux, I'd still recommend Ubuntu. If it's too cluttered, try changing the window manager or use Lubuntu.

I only came to Arch Linux after 10+ years of trying others, and it was the right thing for me, but I don't recommend it to others unless they're already quite experienced with Linux. (But for those who are, it's wonderful.)

Until then, stick with Ubuntu, Xubuntu, Lubuntu, etc - as you'll get the most support there.
First of all this is pretty much where Mozilla is heading towards anyways.

Firefox isn't bloated in terms of memory consumption, when compared to Chrome. It's interface has more nice features though, which I greatly enjoy though.

Did you actually test a recent version?

Oh btw. the Beta version of Firefox is an officially supported one, meaning if you find something that is bad for security bug you will receive the grant and stuff.
When I started, I had already limited it to a short-term experiment precisely because I was afraid of developing a fasting compulsion. I certainly don't need to be swinging from one extreme to another.

The risk should definitely be stressed.
Fasting is really bad for you. Does fasting even count as hacking?
Uh, according to Wikipedia the word comes from Greek (like so many other in English), 'synergia συνεργία from synergos, συνεργός, meaning "working together"'. They do mention that Buckminster Fuller analysed it further, and coined "synergetics". See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synergy.

Oh, and to the grandparent (I think), it was fun to see "M&A" used in a thread about opaque language. Turns out it stands for "mergers and acquisitions" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M%26A).
I'm sure that Arch is a great option; I know several people who are completely happy with it.

My personal suggestion isn't really a distro: I recommend any distro that runs KDE well. I think Arch is fine for KDE, but I haven't tried it. OpenSUSE and the KDE spin of Fedora are both great; I would probably side with the latter if I had to, but both would do. Kubuntu was not great; I would avoid it.

I like KDE because it's very configurable and consistent. Also, it's shiny. I like shiny :) You really should try it.
These days e-mail retention (as well as IM logs, recordings of calls etc.) in the financial world is based on rules set by bodies like the SEC and the FSA and runs to about seven years (at least that's the number I hear thrown about working in that world).

Still, if a law suit is brought against the company, you'd generally stop deleting anything until the lawyers give the ok.
Definitely illegal in both Australia and the UK, and as far as my legal knowledge extends to the US (directors' fiduciary duties are pretty similar across these countries), illegal there as well.

In the situation described, founders are essentially sacrificing the valuation of the company (an 'asset' of the company and its shareholders) for their own personal gain - a clear violation of their duty to the company.

pyoung - whether the acquiring company is doing anything illegal is probably more open to question (though whether it's unethical is pretty clear in my opinion). It probably comes down to whether their behaviour gets to the point where it could be held liable for inducement to breach a contract, or inducement to breach fiduciary duty.

However, the focus of Dan's comment focuses the question (rightly, I believe) on the obligations and behaviour of the founders, which is where most of the responsibility lies.
I've been in a work place like that. The focus was on optimum algorithms and seeking out the last microsecond of performance.

Google antitrust inquiry: Eric Schmidt meets Europe's competition chief
> Is it just inertia that prevents them from doing this?

I don't think it's just inertia, at least not in my case. I know that my example it's just anecdotical, but I'll write it down anyway.

I'm in my early '30s, I've been programming in Python for 7 years now (and during the last 6 years I even got paid for the privilege), along with other languages (PHP, JS etc.)

The thing is there's only so much that you can learn about the world around you by focusing on only learning programming- or tech-related subjects. Of course that, for example, learning Erlang or Caml are extremely interesting things to do, intellectually speaking, but when I realized that by learning to speak Arabic of Farsi I could potentially be able to interact with and to better understand the culture of tens if not hundreds of millions of people then my interests slightly changed.

Of course that it wouldn't help me one bit if I were to tell my potential future interviewer "hey, I learned to speak Farsi so now I can really read Hafiz's poetry the way it's supposed to be read", but as long as that experience enhances my understanding of the world around me it's all for the best.

Re-reading what I wrote I realize maybe it doesn't make much sense, anyway, what I wanted to say it's that most of us, programmers, are (really) smart people, it comes a point in one's life when you realize that there are other things in life worth spending your time on.
I follow mobile wallets very closely, and the Carriers closing ranks is a real issue. Google's hands are not clean either. Case in point: Google has not enabled the API to access the secure element on the Google Nexus One (the only phone that has already been rolled out and been around). And secondly, it has not enabled SWP (Single Wire Protocol) that allows for a Secure Element in the SIM on the Nexus One (which would allow Carriers to put a SE SIM on the phone). Google has not yet opted to provide a third party api for others to integrate with the wallet.

Despite Google's stumble, Carriers is a whole another breed. Isis sounds more and more looks to copy Microsoft in its heydays.(back in the days of Netscape - NO alternate browser on my Operating System!). The carriers are also closing rank, in that they are pushing through the SIM based approach, across the board to the respective handset makers so that Google Wallet will be crippled on rollout.

All this crap, when there is a zero compelling value proposition exists, to both merchants and consumers, the two groups who must embrace NFC wallets for these two initiatives to make any money.

I cover these topics on my blog, but its easy to get the side of one's mouth foaming once you start talking about the missteps from all involved, so early in this game.
Guys, this article is really wrong. I am European and the problem is much deeper than that. It concerns the welfare system that has grown too big to be sustained by income taxes. Even having a taxation that is now close to 50% of the GDP.

Banks are only a small subset of the problem. Europe has to find a way to either increase welfare productivity or to reduce it in order to reduce public expenses.

What is driving now the crisis are public expenses, don't fool around with other fantasies.

Edit.

People are voting down. Not sure why. I am being harsh, but rationale, that should be fine with HN style.
Abuse of fasting usually has bad consequences, but when it's done for the purpose of studying one's emotional relationship to food and consumption, such abuse is unlikely.
It's a very interesting, very different experience. I'm not sure what we can take from it. I like the point about "I was so obsessed with the tool that the house was neglected entirely", I feel there's some wisdom in there I can learn from.

Thanks for sharing it, I'm just not entirely sure what to make of it.
Why'd you point to the changelog rather than the commits for vendor ? https://github.com/keithpitt/vendor/commits/master has some recent activity.
I get no momentum or buzz or traction whatever. Something is wrong. My reality baffles me -- am I in a jail of sorts. My reality is certainly bizzare in many other ways, so speculating outgoing contact is fubar is quite reasonable--some kind of Heaven or no longer land of the living are possible.

I've learned highs and lows balance. It's quite possible I will succeed after I suffer more. I'm in limbo -- I don't have enough suffering credits for anything to succeed. Well, what do I say? Not really a masochist, I guess status quo is fine -- can't be better unless it gets worse.

Google Translate API shutdown casualties: a partial list

I think it's a very insightful article regardless of whether some tech startups successfully become gatekeepers (internet landlords?) who dominate bakers, like Amazons of baked goods. I'm willing to accept a lot of incorrectness if the author is taking a few good concepts and pushing them to one logical extreme (which is essentially a process of exaggeration; and I expect a mental model to diverge from reality, like in any science).
Although it's great you have felt a sense of empowerment through this, extreme measures I feel are never the best options. I guess it's how you define extreme, but if you ever feel that urgency to rack up the degree of action, ask around for help. Shit, in the right places even internet people are about nice enough.

Cisco’s Lesson for Oracle
Thanks.

The original idea started in 2006 while I was working with Eight Media, which I had founded together with Daniel Spronk (spazmaster). After hacking away at a prototype for a while we presented our MVP to a live audience in London in 2007. The response was overwhelming, we got serious about it. Found an angel willing to invest.

Then in 2009 Daniel went back to focus on Eight.nl while I kept going with Soocial. Looking back I think it was much harder without Daniel as a co-founder than I expected. It makes such a big difference to have someone there to bounce idea's, make decisions together and just have the support of someone else who's just as involved and committed.

Very much agree with PG's statement that although possible as a single founder, you're chances of success are less.
