Unlike other "standard" space projects, the payload (consisting of two satellites, and seven picosatellites) was 100% designed and developed by students at various European universities. So even if the project began in 1998, do consider that both capital and technical resources are in no way comparable to those at NASA, ESA or JAXA; hence the timeframe of the project.

I disagree. You only have to compare your product to what prospective users are currently using. For a lot of products, the most common answers are nothing, email and Excel.

It's hard for technical founders to accept that people may choose your product for reasons other than it's the "best". For the user the only delta that matters is quality of life before and after using your product, even if there are ten better products out there.
Agreed. Except your first rule (A) is broken. We make lots of money off hackers & developers. It's time to retire that old saw that "developers don't buy." They do, lots of them.
There is nothing to stop you using foreign key constraints with rails, the activerecord migration api includes methods to create them for the major db adapters and there are plugins to automate the process to some extent. It's not the Rails Way™ because it sacrifices some database-agnosticity, and therefore almost noone does it. People achieve the same behaviour with application-level validations in the model.

I'd wager that a lot of the big professional rails deployments are doing FK constraints though.

I can relate to the OP: I like OSX for general work, but prefer Linux for programming workflow and tooling (mainly because of the debian package system). My solution from now on is to do my dev work inside a Linux VM (through Virtualbox). Seems to work well. Would love to see others experiences with similar setups, anyone else going a similar route?

One thing that does seem a bit odd:

>"I'm a long time Ubuntu user, but this time I decided to go with Debian. Why? Mostly because our servers are Debian and because latest updates of Ubuntu have mostly focused on breaking the desktop environment."

vs.

> "Do I miss something? Sure. Even though Linux in modern times mostly works out of the box, there's still slight issues with external displays, for example I can't set the 30" Dell monitor at work to be the only display without doing some xrand magic. I guess that's really the only thing I'm missing from OS X, a sane and automatic way of handling external displays."

I'm a bit sick of hearing this meme perpetuated. Give Unity a chance ... in fact, the author's main gripe about Debian is resolved in a really fluid way by Ubuntu + Unity. I think Unity's multi-monitor support is one reason why it's worth sticking with.

[IMG] From 1984 to today: boundary between novel and instructions ؟
What an uninformed rant.

When someone rants about memory usage it is usually a sign he knows nothing what he is talking about. On virtual memory systems with on-demand paging that use shared libraries and where all file system I/O is mmap(2) based, memory is managed in a very different way than what most people expect. It's understandable, most people don't know and don't have to know what virtual memory is, even if they have a superficial understanding of swapping. Most people, even most technical people, don't know about the implications of shared libraries in memory measurement.

The users are presented with data they don't understand. Everybody talks about things like "this app is using 300MB of RAM", when such statements don't make any sense in the modern world.
The way file systems, file system caches, virtual memory, and shared libraries in the context of virtual memory interact is architecturally identical on all major operating systems today, including Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, Solaris, and the BSDs. There are various differences in implementation making each system optimized for particular workloads, but understanding the differences between the system is out of reach of most people who complain on their blogs, and it only affect out-of-reach workloads anyway. It's funny how much can one advocate for something when all alternatives are the same.

But all memory management rants are nothing compared to mentioning Mac OS X' repair disk permissions feature. Of course, this feature doesn't magically repair anything, but it's sold as a panacea. I read the first paragraph about memory management and decided to give it one more chance, but then repair permissions was mentioned as a solution. Sorry, this is no HN worthy.
That is simply ridiculous.
I agree with you, and MG Siegler, by extension, that most tech writing is crap. The best writing I've seen is always by technical professionals, rather than journalists assigned to write about technology. However I count Siegler as in the latter camp. He's a fanboy and he's never built anything.

With his article above he's saying "this criticism of a company I'm involved with isn't valid, because these people aren't technically expert". That's wrong because you don't need to be a technical expert to value and appreciate personal privacy, which is the key issue. It's also hypocritical, because he's not a technical expert himself. Like the people he complains about, he makes his money from hype generated around products, without being capable of making his own product.
I think we should vote for the linuxbook pro: http://instablogg.com/3kIvTM

The truth is macbooks are not good as linux machines, and it's a shame no other company makes similarly solid hardware. OSX has zero appeal to me as it's very limited but the hardware just feels so sturdy, and as someone who tends to mistreat my laptops a lot i would really like to have a small unibody laptop that does not need 3 adapters everywhere.

But isn't the result the same?

I can't help think that we started without governments and ended up with them. In fact it seems like governments beat every other known alternative power structure.

In other words even if we removed all nation states and started from scratch we would most likely end up with some sort of government.

The reasons for this are manifold, but especially the democratic state have some inherent perceptual integrity since it allows for "resetting".

But of course as always these are not objective metrics at all. But the problem with libertarians isn't their view but rather the idea it itself.

We started in many ways in a libertarian world. Evolution took us to the states and technology will maybe take us through the state and to something completely different but carried on from the current system.
Raspberry Pi Alternative? Cortex A8 Board for 49 Euros
I think this is one of those stylistic preference issues that basically doesn't matter, which is why people will probably go on about it for weeks with no resolution in sight.

Personal anecdote time: I've been writing Javascript for my job for about 16 months now. When I started, I read all the same material as the readers of this site probably did, mostly written by Crockford, advocating a certain brace/semicolon heavy style. But after dutifully following this for about 6 months, I started to notice that I had made many 'mistakes' in the code, to do with missing semis particularly, and so had a lot of other people in the company. Of course, all the code ran fine everywhere and nobody had noticed in 6 months.

So, when writing code for personal exploration at home, I stopped using semis. It's surprising how much time you spend making sure they are there when the interpreter won't check for their presence (and doesn't care either way). Issues can crop up to do with missing semis, but so far I haven't had a single issue, probably because i'm aware of avoiding certain things, like starting a line with a bracket.

So, in my personal experience, it hasn't mattered to have them or not. If you absolutely need them for minification or similar, you should be using a compiler like yui. You are going to make a mistake if your code base is large enough to matter, irrespective of how vigilant you are, so you might as well leave minutiae like this to a computer.
The quote is Kernighan's I think: "Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the first place. Therefore, if you write the code as cleverly as possible, you are, by definition, not smart enough to debug it."
I dont find that encouraging - 4.8 was the first update that badly broke my system in a long time ... since the original 4 upgrade IIRC.

You also need the condition that every point in the grid actually has a color. In your language that means that you have to replace your second set with:

"Second set of sets is comprised of all 4-tuples of 17-bit numbers which when ANDed together have no bits set and when ORed together have all bits set."

I don't see how this reformulation would help you solve the problem since these sets of sets are huge. You're also only exploiting the symmetries in one space direction, and you're not exploiting the symmetries in the colors. A better (and standard) way to go at it is to impose additional lexicographic ordering constraints. In addition to the constraints given by the problem you choose an ordering on the colors and add the constraint that row1 <= row 2 <= ... <= row17 where `<=` is the lexicographic ordering on 17-tuples. You do the same for columns and a similar thing for colors. That would (roughly) eliminate the following factor of grids:

4! for the colors
* 17! for the columns
* 17! for the rows
= 3.0 * 10^30

The total number of grids is:

4^(17*17) = 9.9 * 10^173

So eliminating all those symmetries leaves us with:

4^(17*17) / (4!17!17!) = 3.3 * 10^143

Your method only eliminates one of the 17! symmetries, so with your method you'd have to iterate over this many grids:

4^(17*17) / 17! = 2.8 * 10^159

This is hardly trivially computable, but I'd still encourage you to try.

You're not really fair. Yes, it's true that osx has 3rd-party-package-manager. But it's also true that they can be very complicated, or simply broken. The easy'ness of a good linux-distribution is just not possibly with osx. The days where you need to hack yourself something togehter, just to get some basic applications, are gone...at least on linux.
I've written a follow-up to this post: http://sachagreif.com/saasternatives/

This is pretty similar to my story except I was using Macs before OS X came out. I grew up using Macs (my first computer was an SE/30) but I started playing around with Linux around the end of the 90s. When Apple released OS X I was really excited and thought I'd be able to have the best of both systems but I'm really uninterested in OS X at this point. I'm currently using a Santa Rosa MacBook Pro from 2007 and despite having absolutely wretched touchpad support in Linux (the cursor doesn't like to move in diagonals...) I'm much happier running it than I was with Mac OS.
Myths about UEFI secure boot
The purge command is pretty much the worst thing you can do to OS X, essentially blowing away the filesystem cache. Back when I worked at Apple, I would use it to debug seek-incurred race conditions in various files.

Report your Teck bugs with others
(I'm the author of the original post)

You bring up good points and my article would need some clarification on some parts, I agree on that. I'll just write quick replies back to you, and try to format something on the article itself later.

Purge really did free memory and quite a lot. I'm not too expert (as you probably can tell) how the OS X memory management works, but I mostly settled with solutions that seemed to help my problem. Maybe there was some third party software that messed things up.

The problem with the inactive memory is that it is not freed, it is swapped. So when hitting memory limits of my system, the computer started swapping. Just freeing the memory, in my case, would have been much quicker. Practically my machine was constantly swapping when the memory limit came up. As you said, repair disk permissions caused all this to happen due to filling memory with disk cache. So that was a nice solution to my problem; a way to force swapping on inactive memory.

Python point is bit wrong, I was indeed trying to argue that installing python packages is impossible through homebrew. However, I did use a lot pip+virtualenv, so that's at best a bit vague argument on the OS X side. However, in production I always rely on the packages provided by the OS, not pip + venv, unless really necessary. This is mostly because it makes it easier to keep system up-to-date.

I'm sorry if this showed up as uninformed rant, but I just wanted to share how I felt using OS X and Macbook for a year as my primary computer.

> * Many people consider JSHint, a fork of JSLint designed to be more configurable, a better choice.

This bullshit assertion is getting tiring. JSHint is not "designed to be more configurable", it's[0] JSLint with a different (and more permissive) base configuration.

JSLint defaults to enforcing Crockford's style and recommendation, but it also has all the knobs and levers required needed to make it accept pretty much any syntactically valid javascript you throw at it[1].

So when TFAA writes:

> For instance, of the three following if statements, only one is acceptable in JSLint:

TFAA is not disingenuous, TFAA is actively lying. How do I know? Because I read the documentation and I know that setting the `eqeq` option lets you use `==` and `!=` and that setting the `white` option will stop JSLint from caring about how you whitespace-separate your tokens, making all three styles "acceptable to JSLint".

You may not be arsed to configure your tools to match your personal desires, but don't lie about them, that's unbecoming.

[0] at its core, things may have changed and JSHint may have diverged further from JSLint, that does not seem to be the case when superficially checking their respective online demos.

Obviously if no solution exists then that fact is also provable, since this is a finite problem. The problem is not that it might not be provable. The problem is that verifying a non-existence proof could be hard, because such a proof would probably be something like "I ran my solver for three weeks and it said that there are no solutions".

Well yes, they do mean less and less, but in the context of the quote, that's exactly what makes the argument moot. To be more concrete, Iceland didn't benefit from having bankers and quants in Reykjavik become programmers in Silicon Valley. Actually quite the contrary. His claim only makes (some) sense in a global, moral context - i.e. when one starts with the assumption that bankers don't add value, then defaulting meant getting rid of the bankers, hence a net positive. But pragmatically, from the point of what was better for Iceland, I don't get it.

Why I am doing a startup and have no plan for life.
As always with European things, it's quite complicated. I'm not even sure I fully understand myself.

Arianespace operates expendable launch systems, but doesn't manufacture them (anymore). So though Vega and Ariane 5 are both operated by Arianespace, they are actually designed and built by different companies.

- Ariane 5 is manufactured by EADS Astrium (French, German, British and Spanish).

- Vega is manufactured by Avio (Italian).

You can't really look at Astrium, and wonder why Avio took such a long time to develop the launcher. On the other hand there was definitely some cooperation going on, as for instance the first stage of Vega is derived from Ariane 5, and the improvements will most certainly make it back to Ariane...
