Your browser is probably loading in the CSS and/or image assets from it's cache of what Bootstrap v1.4 looked like, thus looking mangled when it runs the 2.0 HTML structure.

A couple of refreshes (does Chrome have Shift + R for forcing reload without cache?) should sort it out.

You didn't mention if he really lost the case in court as noted in the post. Did he? Has he refused to pay the settlement? Was there a contract that he refuses to pay? Seems to me that you will have a hard time excusing the details if any are true.
A massive boon for us has been the ability to rapidly prototype UI concepts for clients. People definitely prefer interacting with tangible objects over flat wireframes. The more complex the UI paradigm you're trying to represent, the more likely you should be using the bootstrap.
When you say, "I compiled the statistics behind the white paper" I'm assuming you were involved in the paper when I ask this, so please excuse me if you were not:

Did you look at whether the companies had any employees or not? Or try to split the data out by whether they were lifestyle businesses or not?
Their data doesn't support that conclusion. Actually, you can't make any conclusion without knowing total number of MSinE vs MBAs.

Update: http://www.cgsnet.org/portals/0/pdf/R_ED2008.pdf (p.16) suggests there are a lot more business masters vs engineers masters (23.4% vs 7%). So at a first glance it does look like the conclusion is right.
They were the penultimate example in the 80s and 90s, but are they still? (I don't know the answer, but I believe the innovation machine has slowed)
I didn't even consider the facebook issue. While lots of people are on FaceBook, busy, older CEOs are probably the least likely to be on it and the least likely to put "CEO or Founder" on their profile.

That would also explain why the average age has gone down so much.

What about something like kickstarter, for music?

The artist will only release if a certain threshold is reached.. Then the released music is completely "free" to share as people please. The artist is compensated as they see fit - they set the price in the first place, and also can use it to justify part of the price (to compensate for recording, hosting etc.).

"Piracy" then serves to generate rep to prove that they can deliver on future releases, there can still be people who make money in the middle - generating PR for the project etc.

The platform could take a small share of the cost, a slightly larger share for hosting, slightly more for promotion on the front page..

I'm not sure they're doing good stats...

A better first question is, "What % of advanced degree engineers become founders?" and "What % of MBAs become founders?"

From there you can go on to questions of size and success.

As listed, the answer tells us nothing. For all we know there are 30x as many engineers as MBAs. Or vice versa. The conclusion could be the same as stated too.
Had the same issue, was a super easy (one-line) fix in bootstrap-popover.js though.

Hey kthyqn, I put to together the statistics for the white paper. Our data is necessarily skewed and is not a perfect reflection of reality. Our data is comes with several caveats, namely we probably somewhat over represents startups and under represents large companies.

Nevertheless, it is largely a reflection of reality. A study from Harvard Business School was recently released that came to the same conclusion.

I think the idea is pretty interesting (at least on the surface), but after trying it a few times I wonder what the utility of it will be in practice. In particular, I'm trying to think of use cases where I would have access to e-mail, but wouldn't have access to either the Dropbox application itself or the Dropbox web interface.

And, as others have mentioned, the whole point of Dropbox for me was to avoid having to send file attachments in the first place.
He didn't say the time needed to develop an app was the same, he said the problem was the same. The problem seems to be that people undervalue programming/design work, and web development is not exempt from this.

I think one issue is the word "app" and how it's thrown around so easily these days by people who don't fully understand what an app is. It sounds so simple... "just make an app" or "there's an app for that". While devs know that "applications" are hard to write and take much planning, design and infrastructure to build and deploy and support, business people only hear the one syllable word "app" and they equate that that word with "easy and convenient". So bringing their expectations in line with reality is a challenge.
I don't have the figures to hand, but I believe graduates of business programs outnumber graduates of engineering programs.

I live in Alabama, and I can tell you that law enforcement is sabotaging this law by taking it way beyond the intent and even the letter..

Examples:

1. Police chief of the little speedtrap town of Glencoe, Al announces to local paper that anyone in their town not carrying an Alabama drivers license will be immediately taken to jail when caught.

2. The incident cited with the German. He was stopped near the Mercedes plant, it was obvious he was not here illegally, being a Mercedes executive yet he was hauled in to make an example. Although I will admit this, he should have had some ID, the article here is wrong, he had no license, no passport, nothing.

3. A Japaneese executive visiting the Honda plant in Lincoln, AL was ticketed by police in a neighboring town for not having an AL drivers license. The immigration law does not require an AL drivers license and makes no provision for ticketing anyone for anything.

These are just the higher profile examples. Law enforcement is mad because of the extra duties and are doing everything possible to make a mockery of the law.
In your opinion, what is the mobile equivalent of Bootstrap or what combination of JS/CSS packages can function as a bootstrap-type jumpstart?

I've got one of those stories.

My parents live on the opposite side of the country. I flew to see them one Christmas and then flew back home. As I unpacked after the trip, I discovered that my huge hunting knife had accidentally been in my carry-on bag the whole time. I had carried it through both Salt Lake and Philadelphia International Airports. Literally no one bothered me about it.

Someone once told me that America is "fully prepared for the past" with regards to terrorism. This experience makes me wonder whether even that is really true. And indeed, when I read up on the actual security practices, I discovered that on an alarmingly frequent basis, it is not our security measures that foil terrorists, but their sheer ineptitude. The underwear bomber, the attempted Times Square guy, and a whole host of other idiots had the opportunity to seriously hurt people, and had they even a modicum of expertise, they would have succeeded. Our security forces may be able to take credit for stopping some of these events, but how many? These were incredibly simple strategies, and given that they still couldn't identify and neutralize the threat before it would have been too late, I can't imagine it's an astonishingly high number.

In spite of this I'm not worried about terrorism at all. If someone started a security-free airline, I would fly on it every single time I had the option. What does frighten me is that we spend so much money on this stuff. Why isn't the TSA held accountable by the government? (And if it is, why are they so bad at it?) Do we honestly know that increased spending in technology catches more terrorists? We are trying to identify very sparse features, and it is not at all obvious that this is the best way to catch them. On the other hand, the American government has eliminated (I'm told) 200 of Al-Quaeda's top leaders. This seems like a much more effective method for demolishing this behavior.

Yes, the limits are different, that's why I wrote this:

"Uncompensated sharing in the digital age has been unmoored from some of the traditional limits on sharing, moving it well outside the comfort zone for a lot of people and causing a lot of backlash against the phenomenon."

You say radio, museums, and libraries aren't comparable to file sharing. Do you have data to back that up or merely prejudice?

As for your anecdote above, it's rare for the price of a show for a given artist to remain the same over time. The Black Eyed Peas especially are very much more popular today than they were in 1999.
I wrote the SQL calls.

We did not examine company size as we did not have that data on hand. We filtered the data based on known companies to the best of our abilities but that is an area we could devote additional effort.

That being said, an HBS study appears to confirm our conclusions.

Yeah, this article is pretty much just terrible reporting.

If this tech reporter utilized their long term memory (or a search engine), they would remember everyone reporting on the google transparency report, which tells you exactly how much content each government has asked them to take down, and how many times they've complied with those requests. They would also have remembered the notes in that report that said that google was doing this exact same censorship to comply with eg Indian or German laws while not removing the content for the rest of the world

I mean, seriously? "Ebay thought that they could hide it, but hidden away in their TOS are rules for country-specific censorship, like hiding nazi memorabilia in german search results. It appears that Ebay snuck those terms in there 11 fucking years ago."

Censorship: it's a really hard problem. Luckily we have tech reporters.

Bootstrap is great for tools, apps where the functionality is more important than everything, which is great and I use it. But for regular client websites where design is crucial (and I'm sure it wasn't meant totally for this) is almost never usable in my case. Clients want very customized functionality and looks almost all the cases. So I end up using only a few things. But I'm sure this wasn't its original purpose.
They both look to accomplish many of the same tasks and probably overlap a lot, and probably differ quite a bit.

"As for the speed, there's no reason that a lot of dynamic languages couldn't be as fast as LuaJIT. But none of them are even close. I wish LuaJIT was still up in the computer language shootout. The LuaJIT interpreter (with JIT turned off) is 3x faster than V8 on the PC, and faster than Java on Android. And that's the interpreter - the JITed code is way faster."

[Citation Needed]

I know of old benchmarks (pre Crankshaft) that showed the interpreter being faster than V8, but my own tests using the same benchmarks from the computer language shootout show V8 to be about 1.5x faster than luaJIT now.

I did some searching, and the most recent (though still way out of date) comparison I could find was this:

The depressing thing is that I suspect someone will actually take him up on his "offer".

Isn't that pretty much illegal anyhow? Unpaid interns are not supposed to actually create products.

Edit: It almost certainly is; part of the conditions for unpaid internships are that "the employer that provides the training derives no immediate advantage from the activities of the trainees, and on occasion the employer’s operations may actually be impeded", and this is clearly false in his case. In other words, that job posting is not only immoral, but illegal.
Wow, I learn something new every day. Thanks.
Really happy to hear it! I would, although so much of it is fiction that I doubt either would accept it. Perhaps some other publication would be better suited, although through this posting I managed to get my work out to the group that most appreciates it -- as I always say, "S3 buckets > buckets of unsold magazines." Why I say things in terms of inequalities -- and why I believe magazines are stored in buckets -- are probably subjects for another post.
I wonder why they have removed sortable tables. Not a hard thing to re-add if you need it, but why the hassle?

It's not about being disjoint, you need to known total numbers to make a useful conclusion. It's not really that the title is wrong, it's just misleading. In the same way as the following is misleading:

Gentiles far more likely than Jews to win Nobel prize

If the numbers from that PDF are right your conclusion is actually 3x stronger - i.e. a Masters of Engineering is an order of magnitude more likely to lead to a CEO position than an MBA.

If wonder if that's really true, I find that level of difference odd. Wouldn't be surprised if numbers go the other way if look at only top schools. I.e. MBA is useful, but only MBA from a top-20 school, which is a generally accepted wisdom. I bet at the end it just correlates to IQ and maybe gender.
