You defined yourself - as a product of your experiences - and you sold yourself, brilliantly. That's cheating. ;)

But seriously, I'm more concerned with the student who is interested in doing both and is still unsure of their career, than in the competent professional like you or me. It is obvious that the field wants desingineers, more than self-teaching can produce - what can we do to encourage them, either at the educational or at the job title/industry level?
In the later part of the interview she asks some questions about the recent discussions regarding minorities in the startup community. I thought his response was insightful:

"Well, I think the problem is upstream from us. I don't think it's that, like, huge numbers of women and minorities want to start startups and that we're filtering them out because they're not white or men or something like that. I think that the applicant pool, the applicant pool has the same problem that people see in our output, right? The same problem is in our input that people see in our output. The problem is further upstream. The problem is that the pool of startup founders is the people who are messing about with computers at age 13. If you want to fix the problem, that's what you have to change."

Not over 1 billion people it's not.

There's a lot of families that use hand-me-down phones.

Consider the scenario where Mum gets a new Phone every 2 years and Dad gets her old one when she's done. The phone has a 4 year life.

Averaging it out (over the richest 1billion people in the world) and 3 years is possibly a pretty close figure.
Here's one that almost every small merchant ignores: http://www.mastercard.com/us/business/en/common/faq.html#211

"Q: Can a merchant charge me a fee to use my MasterCard card? Can a merchant require a minimum purchase amount to use my MasterCard card?
A: The answer to the first question is almost never; the answer to the second question is not ever."
Cool. May I know the tools you used to make it?
While I agree that for the average user the default behavior is appropriate, there is still room for improvement. I use Entropy ( http://www.EntropyApp.com ) , which is similar to Springy but also includes "in-archive quick look" and mode shortcuts. So, my workflow is now similar to this:

1. By default, automatically extract like the built-in archiver

2. For "transient archives" where I just want to preview the contents (pictures/documents/crash-logs), open with the CMD key pressed to view the contents. Then press space to preview the files.

I find myself in situation #2 often enough to warrant something like this. It's a lot more convenient than "Extract all -> navigate -> preview -> move to trash".

I'm a self-taught programmer who went to art school and I love this thought-provoking comment.

There's one thing I'd like to point out. You can teach the techniques of art, which are used for creating art. You can teach the techniques of programming, which are used for creating software. You can't teach how to create something that's never been created before.

That goes for creating ground-breaking art, as well as ground-breaking software.

Often, it's a set of disparate and interdisciplinary techniques, seemingly unrelated, that are used together to create the cutting-edge.
I meant (and said) in technology. Not in general. In technology, in the Bay Area, right now, you can make a paper airplane out of a resume and get a job.

I recently read this: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3362072 a post by user "calloc" which I find quite interesting. I personally work for Absio Corp (http://absio.com/) and we do Android development for the DoD and we too have found many of the issues that I've mentioned above and that calloc has found as well. At the moment we are testing on the Evo 4G, Photon 4G, Samsung Galaxy S II, and the Droid X, with a couple of other devices mixed in. I believe we also got a new Galaxy Nexus that we are testing on.

It's a pain, and we've had issues with bugs only cropping up on one device but not another (even if they have the same Android version).

This metric is used is because Apple uses it for their iOS devices in keynotes. Surely both platforms could use "app store accounts with their first device added" per day as a metric if they wanted to. And for Android, you'd want to know what version these activated devices are - no reason a 1.5 device couldn't still be activated today even if the app ecosystem has seemingly moved on.

This is so unfortunate to happen to such a good group of founders. When Buffer first launched, I sent Joel an email pertaining to cron jobs. I was just learning to code generic hello world scripts, and he not only got back to me, but his response was helpful and encouraging. The US lost a good team in this gaffe, unfortunately.

I actually now use Buffer regularly at my startup (I should actually start using it more), and to be honest, I never cared where you guys were based -- the product worked well. Just keep up the good work wherever you settle :)
You Don't Know What You're Doing
The only real win for dterm is the context-aware factor, but I find it to be a big-enough win that I keep it around. If you just need a quick virgin window and are using iterm2 (as you should be) then you can go into Prefs > Keys and set the global hot key toggle and then select the 'hotkey toggles a dedicated window with profile' to get a dterm-like overlay window that is a real terminal session.
> You only have to install one application that handles all your games (or applications) just like spotify handles all your music and your browser handles all sites.

The experience today for serious 3D games is, a full install for each game. Platforms like Flash and Unity attempt to do what you say, be the 'spotify' of games, but in general game devs ship their own proprietary native code.

I agree on mobile/tablets the existence of an app store infrastructure is more 'web-like' than the experience on desktop/laptops. In the end, this is a bit of semantics -- Google's native client stuff is probably the ultimate solution technically, sandboxing full-speed native code instead of relying on Javascript for client logic. However that is farther down the pike in terms of cross-platform adoption than webGL.

It all comes down to a tradeoff between adoption and bleeding-edgeness. My argument is with regard to what the situation will be if/when webGL is running on 90+% of browsers, including mobile and tablets.
I think that the audio/music from the iPhone is passed to airplay which is triggered by sending commands to Siri, then via the airport express is connected to a device created by Yamaha to then convert the song to play on the piano.
They don't sell the phones so they don't know how many are sold. The only count they have is all the activations that are coming from every new phone.

I don't think there can be a better measurement for them than this.
I am quite sure you have fallen into the Google group think of no sorting + no folders. Every time someone at google has the balls to challenge that dogma, like replacing "add label" with "move to" in Gmail, correct usage soars. The search & labels only fallacy has led to some terrible interfaces, such as the Google Docs home page.
A "Social Connector"
Well both my parents have replaced android phones with iphones because they had trouble using them. I had a cheap LG that went flat continuously and I gave it away and went back to a feature phone so I could use the phone for the purpose I need it.

I know a few people who are sysadmins with android, but I also know more sysadmins with black berries. I don't know anyone who isn't a sysadmin that has an android phone, most people I associate with tend to be in sale or design... so probably no surprise all of them use iphones.

It's all about the carriers.

A guy walks into an AT&T store and wants an iPhone. He'll get an iPhone.

A guy walks into an AT&T store and wants a Windows Phone. He'll probably be talked into an Android.

A guy walks into an AT&T store without a clue. He'll walk out with an Android. It's the most profitable for the carrier, because it's perhaps the only smartphone left that grants the carrier full control over how it's configured and what software is bundled.

Patent attacks against individual Android manufacturers and individual models are irrelevant. Your carrier will always have a wall of indistinguishable Android phones for the next customer to choose from.
After the incident involving Arrington, it'd be surprised if PG had not thought about the issue in that context and had reached some conclusion at that point --even if that conclusion was simply an affirmation of his experience and what amounts to his anecdotal evidence in the applicant pool.

"If SOPA passes, I for one pledge to both renounce my citizenship by 2014 and re-locate my business internationally. "

You decide to run away? Really? Like anyone cares? I get the emotion, you can't stand it. But how about instead of running, how about becoming part of the solution? You know run for town council or something, start putting people to work and putting sanity into the world.

Did you know that federal judges are appointed by the recommendation of local US Attorneys? They even have office hours! Its amazing but true, you can go to the US Attorney's office, make an appointment, and talk about what makes for a good candidate for federal judge, the kind that hear and then rule on lawsuits that challenge the validity of stupid laws like SOPA.

Sure you can move to some other country, guess what, if you don't participate there the idiots who step in where reasonable people won't are going to screw you again. And then where will you go? Antartica? Seasteading?

We can't run away and hope for someone to say "Oh crap there's nobody here any more." That won't happen. Take some personal responsibility for the crappy state of your country and work to fix it.
The Year I Learned To Fly
Programming is a trade of great skill and requires enormous amounts of knowledge. Whereas one has to be self-taught it doesn't mean one is alone. It is something I found out when I got my first job.

I joined a small team at a startup. Those guys did their best to make me produce quality code as soon as possible. They were reviewing my code several times a day, and teaching me what to do to, to make it efficent, easy to understand and well designed. Early on they even made me read the "Clean code" and I am eternally grateful for this.

Now I think part of being self-taught is actually having to find teachers on your own. Software Engineering is always about knowledge - whenever you code, you're probably solving a problem, which hasn't been solved before. Otherwise you'd just use some library to do the trick. It means that programming is about inventing new stuff, and so when you tell someone about your code, you're actually teaching them about it. Whenever you join a new project, someone has to teach you how to work with their system. If you're independent contractor building software for your client, you have to learn their ways of doing business.

High tech jobs are all about knowledge transfer, this way or another.

During my college I didn't learn that much from my professors, when it comes to software engineering in the trenches. I did learn a lot during college though. It was a time of meeting other people who were passionate for technology. We could exchange our insights, and do college projects our way. We would give each other feedback on our work, and so we were actually teaching each other.

I think above applies to meetup groups, code retreats and similiar initiatives. Programmers gather together to learn. Software engineering is all about knowledge transfer, and you have to want to learn, but it doesn't mean there's nobody to teach you. You just have to find your teachers on your own.

You are self-taught, but never alone!
Just signed up. Lets see what happens next :) Waiting for my first evening mail. Though I would probably reply 'Not much :| '
As someone said, "if you're not a part of the solution, you're a part of the problem".

Renouncing citizenship is like surrender. If the principles are that important, once must fight for them.
DTerm is fantastic. It's not something I use often but the times when I do need/want it are what makes it fantastic. A simple example is that I wanted to make a txt file on my desktop so I hit the shortcut, typed touch x.txt and bam, there it was.
The problem with self-education is that it's too easy to ignore those subjects because they don't seem interesting or relevant. Someone who is interested in web programming may not see the need for learning assembler, but most of those who learned it would probably say that it was not a useless experience.

So is anyone of them joining the board? was there any lead investor?

Ok, so it just needs to be done eventually, and there's no benefit per se to using Clang over GCC?

I ask because I'm an iOS dev and I don't know anything about this issue.

Why would the transition be much costlier later? More imperative I understand, but why more costly?
also, a wannabe is pejorative, here's the wikipedia definition.

A wannabe (slang for "want to be") is a person with an ambition to be someone or something that she/he is not. The term is pejorative and intends to convey the foolish nature of the desire due to the incompetence of the "wannabe" to accomplish the goal.
Does anyone else look at these numbers and instantly think of the shear volume of waste?

With iphones thats a well over million per day. With most people already owning a phone thats a lot of superseded devices to deal with. Thats a lot of chemical waste...
Samsung Sold its Hard Drive Business to Seagate for $1.4 Billion
I highly doubt the richest 1 billion have anything at all to do with the majority of Android phone purchases. Countries like Nigeria (140,000,000 people) and Kenya (40,000,000 people) are starting to see their populations going from no-computers to everybody-has-a-smartphone. Most people there may never own a PC but will move straight to cheap, open source smartphones.

I would bet that Android's growth numbers are a majority of new users and a minority of returning users. The platform's only been popular for a single "update cycle" anyhow. 3G networks are popping up in the poorest parts of the world and people are buying phones there.

I think the vast majority of these users are probably on their first smartphone. For example, Android is huge in African countries where families who've never owned a computer are starting to sign up for cheap 3G plans with cheap Android phones.

I bet there's a lot of waste, but I also bet that it's nothing compared to the waste from old American cars driving around and polluting. Think of what these new cheap smartphones mean for humanity - the ability for entire populations to pop on the internet that never have before, read wikipedia, etc. Surely that is worth the waste it is producing.
I can't argue with that. But its placement as the default search engine goes a long way towards ingraining it into people's heads.

Yes, there is actually no lead investor, we just collected smaller checks, so we can stay in control. At the same time, we have given up no board seat! :)

Siri has basically nothing to do with this. There is no hack to make it work with Siri. They are just using it as a voice controlled play button.

Some other incubators fund more women and minorities than YC, so this seems like it's only part of the story. A couple questions this leaves in my mind:

- what are they doing to broaden the applicant pool?

- have they considered that something about the process or their reputation might lead to women and minorities steering away from YC?

Indded, one of my friends went to buy a windows phone recently, c# dev looking for a phone he could work on.

The clerk literally told him they only have display models and don't hold stock and that he'd been told not to push them. The clerk couldn't even organise for a windows phone to arrive at the store so my friend decided he'd try learning obj-c and walked out with an iphone 3G (as said dev is a jaded ex-java enterprise programmer and hates the language with a vengeance).

Great comment, Dave.

Would you say over the years that you've oscillated between points of the stack, based on the needs of your current team? I've found that to be the case for me.

At my last job I did a lot of front end work, at my current gig I'm focused on the backend. I enjoy the oscillation and try to keep interesting side projects where I focus on the opposite of what I do in my day job.
A Legal Perspective On Why KOBE'S Wife Waited
If you transition now, the incompatiblities for most apps are small to nonexistent.

If, say, you transition 3 years from now when GCC can't build a working binary for a new iOS ABI version that the App Store rules require all new submissions support, and the syntax clang supports has diverged from what GCC was accepting, that's more time needed and dollars lost for every minute the porting takes you.

But that's just a guess at the future. Clang/LLVM provides significant benefits today. Better error messages, better warnings, a seriously great static analyzer (given the constraints imposed by C's semantics), and Automated Reference Counting are just a few of them.
Can anyone elaborate if SOPA will have the power to take down ALL TLDs or only certain ones. i.e do they only control .com, .net and .org?

Wondering if moving to another non US controlled TLD would work.

e.g piratebay.org would also have piratebay.ly which everyone would go to if SOPA took down their .org site

Yes, that was exactly my point.

So it is not just a 'repelling' force, there is attraction involved as well. The 'root' comment just mentioned 'repels' as if that was the whole story, but it clearly isn't.
