I don't think the cell phone is that significant on its own, though it is up there with the changes others have mentioned.

What this generation is seeing isn't one massive change: it is seeing a greater concentration of significant changes than previous generations, and some of those changes when grouped together have greater impact than they would individually.

That was before they raised the accusations to rape again, when he was only accused of sexual molestation. After the renewed rape charges he left before the police had held a new interrogation.

Also, the police never said the case was going to be dropped, he was heard for sexual molestation after the rape charges had been dropped by the procecutor, the day after they were raised in the first place. That charged (sexual molestation) have never been dropped, instead new charges have been added. But that's ok, I wont flag your post.
github uses a different flow. This article mentions the issues with git-flow and describes the flow used at github:

http://scottchacon.com/2011/08/31/github-flow.html
You're correct, the major disadvantage here is the ambiguity not just in this JSON/S-expression translation but in any possible JSON/S-expression translation. Linear arrays and key-value dictionaries in most programming languages are intuitive and meaningful and usually even have a native data type. The conversion is usually very obvious. Not so much with S-expressions.

An even simpler problem is how do you express an empty array and an empty object in S-expressions? Is it () for both?

EDIT: and what about nulls? What about strings that resemble numbers?

Hiring an iPhone Developer - Some Pointers That You Need to Know
My dad could beat up Anonymous' dad.
This post is very interesting and informative, esp. the part about indexing trigrams instead of words:

> Regular expression matches do not always line up nicely on word boundaries, so the inverted index cannot be based on words like in the previous example. Instead, we can use an old information retrieval trick and build an index of n-grams, substrings of length n. This sounds more general than it is. In practice, there are too few distinct 2-grams and too many distinct 4-grams, so 3-grams (trigrams) it is.

As he explains, in order to perform a search using regular expressions, the RE is first converted to an "ordinary" query string, which finds a set of candidate documents; the candidate documents are then loaded in memory, and the "real" regular expression run against them, in order to find only the matching documents.

He used Google's retrieval engine in order to build the trigram index, but he doesn't say how he identified "code" amidst the ocean of ordinary web pages?

He does say this regarding an example implementation:

> The indexer (...) rejects files that are unlikely to be interesting, such as those that (...) have very long lines, or that have a very large number of distinct trigrams.

so maybe that's what Code Search did too.

What I'm wondering is this: wouldn't it be interesting to have a full web index based on trigrams, that would let us search not only using RE but also using wildcards (at the end of words or at the beginning)?

Maybe it would be too complex to build such an index for the whole web, but for limited corpora (such as one's mail) it would be very useful.

Also, heroku works just fine with haskell, as long as you compile a static binary on an ubuntu machine. I compile mine on virtual box (via way of vagrant), and have 3 haskell apps (none of them really production ready though) running on heroku right now.

Lastly, I don't really think haskell is the right language for a lot of web programming. In haskell, you really want your logic to be as purely functional as possible, but that gets pretty hard to do for web apps that rely on external apis.
I don't think so. But as always, someone has to try and get it through app store review.

Even GitHub dude Scott Chacon (who does training on Git for GitHub and who wrote the book Pro Git) says in this podcast some aspects of Mercurial are better thought-out than Git: http://thechangelog.com/post/3445186374/episode-0-4-9-git-sh...

I agree with Scott's assessment: it's really not that huge a deal if your using Git or Mercurial; they're very similar--it's using a distributed version control system that's a huge deal. Many many places are still locked into old school, centralized systems that make collaboration much harder than it is using Mercurial or Git.

I like that at the end they added:

"With the good groups, you can tell that everything you say is being looked at with fresh eyes and even if it's dismissed, it's because of some logical reason e.g. "we already tried that" or "from speaking to our users that isn't what they'd like," etc. Those groups never have that glazed over look."

Because honestly ... sometimes it suck when someone with general knowledge tells you to do something you've already tried, and you have been having success with your own paradigm. Sometimes it's hard to work with someone who has a different paradigm but is also successful. Which is a shame! It would have been great to know that there's more than one way to approach things.

The British admin of TVShack (which was shut down a while ago) is currently going through the UK courts facing extradition to the US[1]. The founder of NinjaVideo was sentenced to 22 months in jail[2].

However, none of these people were actually found guilty. Ninjavideo was a plea deal, and the TVShack guy hasn't faced trial yet.

Interestingly for the TVShack case, a similar website was found to not be distributing TV shows in the UK in 2010[3]. Despite this, the first ruling was for the extradition of the TVShack admin.

There are other reasons to be careful and get legal advice if you have any reason to worry. They have said that they cannot exempt you from the "trafficking" provisions that cover the tools to circumvent things.

So it's pretty easy to hit a Catch-22 where you're "allowed" to do the act itself, but it's difficult or impossible to legally acquire the tools needed.

A couple of points on what you say:

* The Xcode example isn't a reality. I can see my Mac application outside of the appstore without giving Apple a penny. I can sell my corporate iPhone / iPad application without giving Apple a penny (corporates can obtain management tools that allow them to load applications without using the appstore). It's true for a subset - consumer iOS apps.

* I've had Xcode prior to it's free availability in the appstore and have never had an ADC account - it was on the CDs with my MacBook.
The difference is Goole's relationship with the music industry - this has nothing to do with laws and everything to do with Google's ability to set the agenda.

A more nuanced version of the system newhouseb is proposing would be one in which, for every 'upload' of the file that receives a DMCA takedown notice, the associated download link could be deleted (i.e. complying with the notice as far as the rights holder is aware) but another one almost immediately created, linking to the same content.

The host could simply claim another user uploaded it after the DMCA notice was received and the original link removed.

Presumably DMCA notices don't apply to future uploads as well? That would be almost completely unenforceable for a service like Megaupload.

Edit: Just a couple more proposals for such a system. First, the link re-creation could be conducted randomly at different times after deletion for different uploads, giving the impression that it is not the result of an automated process.

Second, a host could publish all the DMCA notices they receive, providing a plausible explanation for why all the content is 're-uploaded' soon after being taken down. Surely a host can't be held responsible if its 'users' take it upon themselves to almost immediately re-upload any content taken down by DMCA notices?

You do not have to distribute the source code of a GPL application with the binary. You merely have to make it available. For example, I have an Ubuntu Linux install CD with lots of GPL binaries and no source. It's perfectly legal for that binary-only CD to be distributed.

AFAIR from the VLC case, software distributed on the AppStore has extra restrictions on the user (You can only use it for personal reasons, you can only install (use?) it on 5 (or so) machines, etc.) GPL software cannot be distributed under these extra clauses.

If you are the sole programmer & copyright holder, then you are free to relicence/release your work under some other licence that is OK with these.

However if you are incorporating other GPL software (like in the VLC case) then you do not hold the copyright on that software, so the person who does have copyright on it is letting you distribute the software so long as you agree to certain terms. You cannot distribute someone else's GPL software on the Apple App Store because you would not be meeting the GPL requirements of "do not place any other restrictions on the software".

I delibrately phrased it as "Apple doesn't allow GPL" because this is not a technical problem, but a legal/contractual/business problem. Apple could choose to allow GPL. They do not. Microsoft, who called the GPL cancer, allow GPL Apps on Windows.
Don't get too hung up on this.

Technologist love to think through the technical implications of something, and assume these implications will be carried through legally.

The law doesn't work like that. Provided Dropbox adheres to both the letter and the spirit of the DMCA - or works with complainants to develop an arrangement both are hppy with the technical details DO NOT MATTER.
The way I view copyright law (IANAL), this is the correct approach. Each upload of an item to Megaupload is an independent assertion by the uploader that they have a license to put the work in question on the site. _Content_ itself is not prima facie infringing; instead, it is the unlicensed _use_ of the content that is infringement. This was essentially Youtube's argument when Viacom uploaded "roughed up" content to their site [1]. In that case, the roughed up copy as originally uploaded would be a licensed copy, but any copies that other users uploaded, even with the same MD5 hash, would be unlicensed.

On the other hand, child pornography can never be "non-infringing." It is always illegal to knowingly store obscene content, regardless of who stores it. Thus, one link to a child-pornographic file is as culpable as the next, justifying mass removal. This is essentially the argument made by Katherine Oyama of Google at one of the SOPA hearings [2].

you're seriously too young to understand. i am 32 years old. the first time i went online was in 1999. before that i had personal computers, yes. but no internet whatsoever. can you even imagine a world without google and wikipedia?

my parents were born after ww2. your time as a youth shapes you, forms your understanding of the world. you translate everything you see into analogies of the past. a mobile phone is a like a normal phone without a cord. easy. but wrong for the generation that grew up with mobile phones.

my parents grew up with black and white tv. literally no computers in sight, anywhere. they got engineering diplomas while only utilizing a calculator (high tech for their time!) and pen and paper.

When I said there is no heroku for Haskell it because it is not official. Furthermore, do you have to use a 64bit architecture when compiling (just curious)? I might try it myself.

And I even think that the argument against the number of Haskellers is in fact a force instead of a drawback. It filter passionate people.

By external APIs, you mean that it would be difficult to write a simple "connect to twitter/facebook" application? Could you tell us about any bad experience you had?
Dude, that looks extremely cheap and crappy.
That is a licence agreement, not the law. (I realize they uses OS-X for the example, but it was a bad example because the Apple license confuses things)

Apple could licence you to only use their operating system while wearing white robes and chanting to Steve Jobs, and if you agreed to the license that would have rights against you.

That doesn't mean anything for an arbitary ISO.

If it only was so simple... no matter what, it costs companies such as Dropbox a lot a lot of extra effort to appease all possible companies that can file complaints.

A net loss for all users of the internet, especially law-abiding ones.
What's disruptive about Dwolla? PayPal has always let you fund payments by bank transfer and person-to-person payments are free to send and receive. As far as I can tell reading their site, they are PayPal without 90% of the features but a better mobile app, and the only benefit for merchants is the introductory $0.25 pricing. If ACH-funded person-to-person payments are going to disrupt the banking industry, why didn't it 12 years ago when PayPal started doing it?

I've done years setting lots of goals, and done years when I set none. Even though ending the year with a list of "failed" goals is difficult, I much prefer it to not setting any at all.

Building a habit is easy to measure and gives good short-term feedback. You can end every day knowing if you've done what you needed to, and because you practice daily it's constantly reinforced.

From experience I've found the goals I achieve are usually the ones that are reinforced on a regular basis. My personal preference would be to build goals on top of habits, rather than exclusively one or the other.
