What is your guidance when my iPhone is in battery-draining/Hot mode while at the home screen and I need to fix it? If I'm engaging in superstitious hokum by terminating all the apps in the MRU/Multi-Tasking bar, what is your advice to fixing my problem? Keep in mind, that if I've been only using the iPhone for a day or so since I last killed/removed all the apps - terminating everything in the MRU bar takes about 30 seconds versus a minute or so for a reboot.

Thanks for taking time to provide your insight on this topic - I'm looking forward (honestly) to your advice.

Oh get out of here with your facts, everyone "knows" how bad the US education system is.

Part of the deal is the US is not at all like most other countries, I've mentioned we provide public schooling for all children, which some countries don't. The US is also very large and diverse. Texas, for instance, is generally quite low on the public educations scores for public schools overall, but some of the best schools in the entire US, regardless of public or private, are public schools in Texas! You just have to live in the right school district, which almost always mean you live in the right family with a lot of money.

http://www.thedailybeast.com/newsweek/features/2011/americas...

I'm not sure about the #1 and #2 schools, but further down,
Highland Park in Dallas and Westwood and Westlake in Austin are all public schools.

I think it is almost impossible to have a good talk about education on HN, because we are essentially part of the 1% as far as abilities go, and most of us probably got along fine in school with any effort (or even no effort). So the bias tends to be against education. However, I've now had a son who is dyslexic, and the lack of good options even for people with money is dissapointing. The US school system is still very good for the top of the class, it's the bottom that gets let down. At any school system of any size that I've encountered (and I haven't been to very poor inner-city school), opportunities for the smart kids are always there. It's the rest of the kids that are going to struggle, and those that can't find the motivation.

The VC taking the bait assumption is a bad one. They will look at the team you have, and if you can't get the job done, they'll establish the terms in a way they can push the founders out and replace them with a team that can get the job done.

Can you convince a couple customers (businesses or consumers depending on your project) to sign up for a pilot program? That is usually an easy way to tell if it has merit and value. If you can convince a few of them to cut you a check to be a part of it? Even better. Beyond anything else that will validate if the product is of interest, and that your team can make the sales.

Reduce the concept to its core and eliminate all other features that are unnecessary and see if that is within your means to develop.

If you can't get initial interest through a pilot program, or a prototype built on your own it's probably not viable for your team.

I think you completely misunderstand RMS then, I think you would find that he would argue that all freedoms are necessary and worth fighting for. In many speeches I have heard him give he has said that he could fight for other freedoms but the freedom he could do the best job of fighting for are software freedoms. I would suggest you read more of RMS's work and listen to more of his talks.
What Americans are really ignoring is the idea that maybe someone can "hack" education for the better.

Numbers and anecdotes aside, we all know in our guts a few things that are beneficial to education: studying more, decreased distractions, (parental) encouragement, high standards for technical subjects, and nurturing of creativity. Every parent wants these things for their children.

The system in Finland has some of these things, but who cares why they have them? You could copy some aspect of Finland and hope you get Finland's results. You could copy some aspect of China and hope you get China's results.

We are trying to have the government build a model to explain WHY China's students study more or to explain WHY Finnish students have less distractions in the classroom. Are you confident about the government's ability to model this? I'm not sure I'd trust the world's best statisticians to figure it out.

The main point is that while everyone thinks they're an expert on how to get the above mentioned qualities into a school, simply finding a school that has them and then sending your child to it is a REALLY, REALLY easy way to get your child a good education. However, under the current system, you are discouraged from sending your child to said school.

Suppose your friend used a government chalkboard for a relational database. He's really upset about its performance. He hears about Oracle's fast databases, so he adds an index etc to his chalkboard, since queries with an index are faster. Maybe his chalkboard will catch up, and maybe it won't. MySQL is down the street offering what he really wants (a cheap, fast database) but he doesn't want to use it. He's worried that using MySQL will cause a decline in the quality of the chalkboards and leave all his neighbors with a piece of cardboard instead. He would rather spend his time mimicking Oracle until his chalkboard gets fast, and trying to figure out WHY Oracle is fast.

Shouldn't he just let the innovative minds behind MySQL sell (or give away) what they've built, and just know that their product has all of the features he wants? If it doesn't have what he wants, then he can use his chalkboard.

Are we all really afraid of that? An educational process is technology too, even if it's not software. This community is in love with software that solves problems, but is very cautious of schools that can solve problems.

I do not believe that the article was about specific predictions and maybe not even about predictions at all. The main thesis of the article was that he was right, not that he is prescient.

Stallman's position has always been that it is bad for you not to have full control over the software you run. This is admittedly not very specific but I do not think it needs to be. It is a political view after all, not a scientifically verifiable hypothesis.

The article enumerates some cases of that badness which were not present when Stallman started his movement but are present now. That does not make him a prophet - it is just some new evidence that supports his views.
Despite the snide comments, this does demonstrate the power of CSS3, which I think was the designer's intention! On that note, NICE.
"The plant will generate 110 megawatts at peak and store enough heat to run for eight to 10 hours when the sun is not shining."

Let's assume we get about the equivalent of 100 MW for 15 hours each day. That's 1500 MWh per day. Over 10 years at 365 days per year gives a total of 5'475'000 MW*hours.

The loan was 737 MUSD and let's assume that private investors will kick in the some to bring the total invest up to 1'000 MUSD. If you ignore operating costs this gives an average cost per MWh of 182.64 $/MWh.

The average cost of electricity in the US south west was around $40 MWh (http://www.eia.gov/electricity/monthly/update/wholesale_mark...).

This would indicate that the payback period for such a project must be longer than 10 years or that the expected cost of electricity will be higher in the future (or both).

The only reason this law wasn't initiated earlier is because until recently very few people in Belarus had access to internet, so the regime could leave it alone and boast internet freedoms as oppose to China let's say. Now that the internet usage is growing rapidly it became important to control it.
> Predicting DRM phoning home in 1997 does not seem startlingly prescient.

Since when was being prescient the sole marker of an ideas value?

What's interesting about Stallman is that he's been repeating the same material since the 80's, and it only gets more relevant. He might be a paranoid weirdo but he does seem to at least be paranoid about something that has it's roots in reality.

We might have increasing equality, and perhaps some additional freedom over our own bodies, but at the same time the wide spread deployment of mass surveillance tech has come at the same time.

> But that doesn't seem so dystopian. Everyone is a publisher now.

This is only not a dystopia if those publishers have sufficiently uncorrelated output and distribution channels. I'm not sure that's the case.
So the concern is that this impacts the ranking of Google Chrome in Google Search, and that the FTC is investigating Google for favoring its own content unfairly?

It makes sense in the context of travel websites (Expedia complaining about Google, for example), but I'm not sure about Google Chrome. It's been promoted on the front page of Google many times--so does Google really need the extra boost in its search results?

It certainly has the power to do both and the usual course of action is indeed to jump into closed systems only to open them up later. That's all fine and well if we're only talking technology, but a number of companies increasingly invest in a dual strategy where they also make governments do their bidding when it comes to technology - that started out with software patents (clearly a pandoras box, opened, now) which are already harming innovation and is now leading into things like SOPA where, transparently, policy is proposed to 'fix' the technological empowerment that we have enjoyed on the Internet for so long in favor of protecting the deep pockets of a few corporations.

Remember - technology is only a tool and what happens with that tool is always guided by the ones who yield the most power. It was possible for Apple to eliminate DRM only because they maneuvered themselves into a position of power where media corporations were being lead by Apple and not the other way around. I think the actual reason why DRM was abandoned was because it was just not feasible, for music - remember the horror stories with Windows DRM for music, for instance. Removing DRM was both damage control by Apple and a 'hip' thing to do in the wake of consumer dissatisfaction. I have yet to see a similar push in any other field than music - extremely restrictive licensing and DRM are still alive and well in proprietary software and video content, respectively, and it doesn't seem like there is any change to that on the horizon. It probably helps that the Apple->Jobs->Pixar->Disney link is a very strong one and that video content is used fundamentally different compared to music.

Anyhow - it's always both - big corporations do have to pay attention to the market and both follow the will of the consumer and what is best for their own bottom line, which sometimes overlap. But sometimes they get weary of that and short circuit the system through politics (although that is often initiated by companies that are not primarily in technology). That's where any degree of authoritarianism is quite an asset.

If we were to create a society which simply circumvents the broken copyright industry in a way where artists and audience act on a basis of mutual trust and respect, we need more artists releasing their work like this and we need an audience that ist showing their appreciation by paying the artist.

Thank you Nick Dooley, for doing this. And thanks to everybody who is chipping in some money. You are building blocks of a society I would like to live in.
Doing something in CSS instead of graphics often can let you save some HTTP requests and/or bandwidth — this comes handy if you are into client-side optimization.
Also it is easier to update later: just change some values instead of recreating entire image (or set of them).
However, depending on the case using sprites or data-uris may by preferable.
> so bad or was just about the same as any other city

To me, it's quite bad in any other city.
The French band Phoenix did something like that. They had on their site where you could download the tracks for each song. I think it averaged ~100MB/song because you had an MP3 file for each guitar/keyboard/vocal track. I didn't have a lot of experience with multitrack mixing at that point, but I was engrossed for hours in Garageband mixing things up.
OMG. Just when you think you've heard the worst (SOPA?).

The discussion going on about whether it's a criminal or civil offense is really pointless. The main thing is that a country can simply decide one morning that it's illegal to access websites from other countries. Thinking about this as a possible reality makes me feel physically ill. Not to mention how stupid this idea is in the first place: many modern professions rely heavily on international websites for doing their jobs. Think about academic researchers, importers/exporters, even school teachers...

Horrible, just horrible.
