My only exception to this rule is with the memory.

Safari uses avaliable memory for caching web pages in tabs, which is understandably at a low priority. I often find that iOS will give priority to 'suspended' apps rather than 'suspended' tabs.

In order to get safari to stop upnloading the tabs you need to free up memory manually.

This however is an edge case.
Yes everyone knows beauty and ugliness, but its not the same standard for everyone. Lots of people have their own idea of beauty and ugliness. What's ugly or meh to me, might be stunning to you. For example, some straight men like grantees/older women. They find these people attractive, and others find these people ugly. There is not one standard.

I do think that it is easier to acquire confidence that well-written Haskell is correct than well-written C, and there is some evidence supporting this belief. There's room to argue this, but it is very far from baseless FUD.

For an example of the kind of techniques available to Haskell but not to C, check out:

http://www.andres-loeh.de/Contracts.html

Some correctness infrastructure, such as Quick Check, have proven themselves to be eminently practicable.

It is perhaps also true that it is easier to write Haskell well than to write C well: certainly there is no shortage of awful C coding out there.

[EDIT: this isn't getting the (positive) karma I expected it to. Anyone has a hint?]

This article isn't nearly as convincing as the author hopes. (S)he mainly argues that drug dogs catch too many innocents to allow them to be used as "probable cause" for searches. However,

"The [extensive] review [of the Austrialian New South Wales Ombudsman] found that illegal drugs were found in only 26% of all searches that were initiated after a handler indicated that a dog alerted on the subject."

If there were a cheap-ish test that detected bombs with this accuracy, wouldn't we want to use it? Even if a few innocents would be unjustly searched?

I also agree with the author that we should look more closely at methodological issues of drug dogs; but this article is only convincing if you support the underlying premise that drugs aren't (all that) bad. (I do.)

(The article speculates that police dogs could be trained by their handlers to alert e.g. on blacks, but doesn't show that this actually happens, or that police dogs are more racist than police officers. The article also argues that dog-based evidence is not very strong, but only cites a case where it was thrown out; and "probable cause" is far weaker than "sufficient evidence to convict" anyway.)
I'm actually a little surprised that no one has mentioned reveal.js yet. Different idea, but worth mentioning. Impress.js is more like those font animation we see lots these days. It's pretty cool.
Cool, yes; newsworthy, not really: people have been doing this since 2002 at least.

The newsworthy factor for Louis was about a big comedian deserting the old distribution model, something that had mostly been done before only in the music world (Radiohead, Trent Reznor, etc etc). (Even the, it got much more publicity than it really deserved, but that's the magic of showbiz for you.)

But this? This is a nobody uploading mp3s on the net. Is this new? No. Is this hacker-related? No. Is this Louis-related? No. It's just a marketing trick. What next, "hey Hacker News, here's my store selling potatoes directly on the internet, I'm doing it like amazon" ?

Google May Have Violated Its Own Paid Link Policy With Chrome Promo Campaign
I used to think this too, until I realized something I didn't thoroughly understand until I read the OP. The reason Stallman wants a "pure" system with no closed source code is because if there's even one proprietary bit of executable code, you can't guarantee your system isn't spying (or capable of spying) on you. Or tracking you or restricting how you use your data.

Seen through the argument I just made, when you say closed and controlled systems are an unstoppable force of nature and must be accepted, what you're really saying is digital spying/tracking/restriction is an unstoppable force of nature and must be accepted. It really is an all or nothing proposition at this point.

>or that police dogs are more racist than police officers

I think the point is that police dogs are supposed to be LESS racist (and more objective) than police officers, since they can be used as probable cause for a search (unlike an officer's hunch).
My sense is they are decoupling the sorting (I am smart by virtue of getting into Stanford) from the education. As long as the sorting is clear, students won't complain about the education.

Now I am guessing since they need password for Wifi that they don't have Internet access. How will they then get and/or use the link for the password?
Indeed. The article speculates that police dogs may pick up on their handlers' prejudices; but it does not show that. And even if dogs do pick up some prejudice, they may still be sufficiently objective to be used as probable cause.

> If there were a cheap-ish test that detected bombs with this accuracy, wouldn't we want to use it? Even if a few innocents would be unjustly searched?

Good point, though it's slippery slopes everywhere you look: What it if works on bombs, but only in 1% of the cases? What about 0.01%? What if we had a similar test for other, more trivial misdemeanours?

Either way, I'm sure that even fairly strict prohibitionists will agree that carrying around a bomb is a more significant threat to others, so it shouldn't be surprising that a more significant invasion of people's rights is tolerated. How much bigger the threat and how tolerable an intrusion is in each instance, that's exactly the crux of the matter. I suppose that was your point, too.

Edit: Another point: Seeing this, it's not surprising that there is such a range of opinion about it. People have very different evaluations towards the threat posed by drugs, and different people also have very different attitudes about how tolerable those kinds of intrusions are. This opens up a 2D space, where I suppose people often fall on a diagonal or end up in opposite corners.
In principal, yes. But in my experience without any real enforcement developers do whatever they want. It drives me nuts that I have to reboot my tablet every 3-5 days. Eventually the memory is fragged to pieces and everything, especially the browser, crawls.

TortoiseHG 2.2.2 release notes
A great question - I haven't actually measured it directly, but it's probably < 200ms (video feels 'live' when you watch it). The prediction step takes circa 20ms on a MacBook Air and the serial port runs at 9600 baud and needs to send a single byte, which will propagate very quickly. I'll see what instrumentation I can add to the video frame -> computer via wifi step.
Some Great Tips to Come Up With a Successful Dissertation in Finance

I don't think that responsive web design is a fad. No way. I don't want to download an app for every website that is out there. I want to simply visit the same sites that I do on my desktop and receive the same content in a way that is pleasant to view on the device that I'm using.

This isn't a Web 2.0-like design style that comes and goes. I'm sure the techniques will evolve in time but I can't see us ever going back to fixed width layouts.

-a only works when creating the tarball anyway.

`file`-like auto-decompress could work, though: these formats have magic numbers, and tar already has the data in its zip_magic struct:

http://svn.netlabs.org/repos/ports/tar/trunk/src/buffer.c

together with code to infer compression type. I guess the only reason why tar doesn't support this already is caution.
Yes, agreed - I do plan to try this next - just discovered this http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/peterseid/romo-the-smart... (not self driving :-( ) robot which communicates via the phone's audio jack which would work well in this project. Additionally, this code could easily be used to control a Romo, so I'll probably try to order one of those too - would make the set up much more reproducible for others if the 'car' is ready made.

You're spreading FUD. The public doesn't need focus groups and rigorous experimental studies to know that it values a clean city free of visual pollution. it just needs to vote for it.

I've never been to Seattle, but coming from Europe I found it very logical when I visited Grand Rapids, MI earlier in the year. There, they append a compass point on each street depending what area of the city it's in - Lake Drive SE, Wealthy St SW, 28th St SW and so on. It took me a little while to fathom, but it turned out these main thoroughfares keep their name right across the city, so the compass points help you keep your bearings.

I love your grid systems (and I'm sad enough to sit and look at maps of them for hours) - I find it really difficult to get lost in the USA. Everything's just so logically laid out when you're used to European maze-like towns and cities. My small English town (11,000 people) is easier to get lost in than a city the size of South Bend or Grand Rapids.

Here's more to cross unknown factors out: a very interesting article on how the Finnish language itself affects schooling and has significance in PISA results.

Finland and Estonia share similar lingual roots and they both rank relatively great, even if Estonia is a lot poorer country than Finland. Yet, the Swedish speaking people in Finland fare relatively worse than Finnish speaking people, even if the schooling system is exactly the same.

I'm also eager to get one, but I think it's at least an year until it will be in a usable state as a product.

This would be a perfect in-laws replacement computer. With some Linux and Chrome on it, it would make a decent browsing computer. This is basically the price-point I would expect for a Chromebook box. Just add the old peripherals and you're done.

Right now though it seems to target more of an Arduino enthusiast.

After it gets a proper box and some official OS support (say, some Ubuntu Raspberry Pi edition) it might have a chance to go mainstream.

Speaking of mainstream, Flash might be a bit of a problem.
