Wow, this is really amazing. Can you give us a rundown on how it works? Does it do all of its own parsing, and then dump a more well-formed version into the iframe, or does it just send the text verbatim to the iframe and utilize the browser's parsers? It must use some sort of tag recognition to autoindent the input, but the output seems extremely generous (tolerant of malformed or partially completed input) to the extent of what a browser would do.

Yeah, in all honesty, that graph looks not too different from a map of lights at night (proxy for population density).
I am disappointed with Gruber's "shades of grey" conclusion. He is of course right that there are good parts as well as bad parts. Maybe I am too "Jobsian", but that equates total crap to me. The abysmal failures of the book leave room for someone else to write the definitive biography. Isaacson had his chance but he blew it. He sold a lot of copies, but the people who misunderstood Jobs won't be the ones spending their time telling the next generation about him. A hundred years from now, the book that people quote regarding Jobs will certainly be written by someone who properly understood the man. Someone who writes that "greatest book ever". This superlative attitude might seem overblown in everyday life, but it's what society values. Second place is in the end the first loser (or at least the first forgotten).

And hat author could be one of us. It can only be someone with the perspective to set it straight. It certainly won't be a writer thinking more about himself than his subject. In history, perspective matters more than profession.

Isaacson leaving those Gates quotes unremarked upon doesn't imply agreement; he's just relaying interesting details.

For example, the post-NeXT acquisition rant, which comes by way of Amelio, is effectively refuted by the whole life story that follows. So there's no need to spoon-feed a conclusion to the reader: "look how wrong Gates was!" Everyone gets it just about as well as Gruber does.
This doesn't actually mean that the software isn't the major thing that makes apple great though. Just because you find it frustrating doesn't mean the 99% of 'average' users don't find it vastly superior, usually without even realising it.
Even the regular "Computer Science" stream is filled with incompetents. How is it that you can go through four years of education which, as you say, is supposed to teach you how to think, but can't even puzzle your way through a simple Fizz-Buzz problem?
Anyone who can backdoor a release on their FTP server can easily upload a new CHECKSUM file. Many users probably do not bother to check the hash. Even if you use public key crypto to sign the hash, users probably don't know your public key in advance. An attacker can sign their malicious hash with any valid public key they like.

Most of our instances we keep up for months at a time, although they can turn flaky. We tend to use EBS, so we reprovision instances when needed. The biggest overall issue we have with EC2 is clock skew issues that can fool our fault-tolerance layers into thinking there is a major timeout issue when it's only some clock skew. That and some instances randomly rebooting in the middle of a time critical processing operation. We primarily use m2.xlarge or m2.2xlarge instance types.

Father accused of being a hacker in legal fight for his child
I've been in the same room with both, and I think they are polar opposites.

Jerk: Steve Jobs is not a jerk. He's opinionated, and I think many people can't stand that. But at his core, his biggest crime is probably being too honest (e.g.: being honest about what he thinks.) Jeff Bezos: He is a jerk. He's been a jerk to me. For him, being nice is a facade, but in reality, he's got no consideration for other people-- to him other people are ... things to be used for his own benefit. He doesn't have compassion. I believe Jobs has compassion at a very profound level.

Visionary: I don't ilke this term. Steve Jobs though probably does fit, because he focuses on the future, he focuses on the product. He is extremely product focused, product obsessed, and thus he manages to bring about products that have a huge, significant impact. Again, I think Bezos is the opposite. Amazon does hundreds of initiatives each year. The main thing Bezos seems to want out of a product is a press release. I think this is true of even things like AWS. They just throw things on the wall. All of the engineering at Amazon is half assed. (their software was out of date 15 years ago, and is poorly engineered.) They do movie reviews, they do movie show times, they scan restaurant menus, they do a search engine, they have e-readers, now they're competing on tablets, they're a retail operation, they are expanding internationally (yet in many countries outside the USA they haven't done squat because "expanding internationally" played really well on wall street during the dotcom boom but isn't so important now so they don't care so much.)

The only redeeming quality Amazon has is that they treat their customers well (not their employees, not their suppliers, not their partners, not anyone, just customers.) They also had good timing and got into commerce at a brilliant time.

Jeff Bezos is a failed financial analyst who parlayed connections and a lot of dumb money in the dotcom period into the biggest stock scam ever (I think Amazon is still a stock scam-- it has a real business but its stock is massively overvalued and I really don't trust their accounting.)

Here's the proof: Jobs did not seek out publicity for himself, except when he wanted to sell a product. The product was always Apple's latest-- then he'd appear on magazine covers. Bezos is the product, and he, and his PR firm, are pitching him as a visionary-- this is all smoke to get investors to continue to allow Amazon to operate at essentially a loss because its core business is just retailing. Apple is a high tech company that invents totally new technologies-- Amazon is a retailer pretending to be a high tech company.

I have worked for Amazon, but have not worked (as an employee) for Apple, though I have worked with Apple in other capacities.

Much detail on this is expounded on (with at least some sources) in the discussions on Wikipedia about the recently terminated India Education Program.

Postmortem: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia_Signpost/20...

Talk page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:India_Education_...

The IEP was much like similar programs in other countries -- the idea being to get writing Wikipedia articles as a class activity for students. In the past, similar programs have had various successes and failures, but the IEP is notorious for its sheer size and consequences. It was a total and utter failure in which around a thousand students ended up flooding Wikipedia with plagiarized content, forcing mass-reversions and auditing of the entire program, and eventually shutting it down.

Much of the problem was bad management and insufficient planning/mentoring, but there's lots of useful detail in the discussions about issues in the Indian education system, why so many students assume it's okay to copy-and-paste, and so forth. There's some good perspectives from Indian editors, particularly the "ambassadors" who were serving as liaisons for the program.
Gruber managed to do that without offering much evidence to the contrary.

Do Apple engineers and Designers really work side by side? Or is it just that Apple prioritise design over engineering.

So rather than the engineers throwing a brick over the fence and saying "Designers, make it look good" it's designers throwing a sleek brick over the fence and saying "Engineers, make it work."

The antennae-gate was a REAL problem, that Apple changed it's design for (in the 4S)... Can we really accept there is no tension in Apple over these things (As Gruber is suggesting)?
I would rather see a programmatic simulation of a city growing than someone's deeply flawed "programmed city". An airport in the middle is a massive mistake, for instance. That's the kind of thing an ISO committee would do on the grounds that it creates equal amounts of noise, pollution, and the risk of unfortunate immolation due to a crash for everyone.

Starbucks also has a very sophisticated siting operation which predicts demand similar to how an oil company predicts oil. For green fields, you measure proxies, look at formula based on historical data, and guess. If you sink one well and hit a gusher, though, your expectation of profitable exploitability in the vicinity goes WAY up, so you start going nuts.

You'd think that two Starbucks across the street would cannibalize each other, but you'd be betting against very smart people who have made this their lifes' work and been richly rewarded for succeeding at it.

Source: anecdata from my father, who works in commercial real estate and thinks they (and Walgreens) are the two savviest businesses he's ever worked with in his industry.

P.S. A software solution to turn any arbitrary firm into Starbucks would be worth tens of millions of dollars if you sold it correctly. Billions if you went the next step and started flipping properties based on the software. (e.g. "101 Main St. on foreclosure auction for 200k, predicted value to a banking customer is 1.2 million, expected cost to work deal is 200k. Placing bid now.")
"Virality" of apps is not a problem users should bear. Good apps will be evangelized by users if they are genuinely useful. I'm suspicious of the utility* of apps that need to goad non-users into joining.

* Usually, 'utility' is not the primary driver of these apps, it is more in building a large userbase quickly so VC attention can be garnered.
The needs of our customer are too transient for reserved yet, so it's primarily been as needed (on demand?) We run into problems during provisioning sometimes and Amazon has to then raise our quota. Some customer architecture and capacity requirements have stabilized, so they are talking about getting reserved instances. We also have been experimenting with provisioning a bunch of servers for short durations for "burst processing" of content, but we're never totally sure if AWS will have the capacity we need. Things like reserved instances might get more use by us soon.

Macs have trouble booting legacy operating systems off external devices, but I've never had trouble booting anything off the internal drive, or booting off an external drive using EFI. At the moment, I'm running a Linux system off a firewire hard drive, with my bootloader, kernel, and initrd stored on the EFI protective partition of my internal drive.
I think this is a great idea. Some things are better suited for or more convenient on a specific device.

gwern, after reading the rest of that page, especially the melatonin section, it looks like your next sleep experiment should be a double-blind experiment on getting rid of the cat. I'm not sure how you'd double-blind that, but extrapolating linearly from your description of how you double-blinded the Vitamin D capsules I would imagine it looks something like having a housemate randomly stuff the cat into one of two bags and you randomly opening precisely one each night via some sort of complicated-but-scientific mechanical contraption. (Perhaps based on the random decay of a radioactive atom for some extra classical flavor.) I would definitely expect some sort of statistically significant effects on sleep to arise from such an experimental setup. In fact, it would probably be so statistically significant that even the others sharing your house would experience statistically significant effects on their sleep, and that's a whole heaping helping of significance.
I'm pretty sure the parent meant "precompute" (e.g. a rainbow table), not "brute force".
It's pretty clear from the second-to-last paragraph that Gruber understands that Jobs was a fallible human being.

Gruber concedes an inch to take a mile. It's a tactic as old as time and it's hardly surprising that he uses it here.

However it is the volume of the book dedicated to humanizing Jobs that turned many of Jobs greatest fans against Isaacson. As Gruber says "Isaacson got the self-absorbed hypocritical asshole right, but the world is full of self-absorbed hypocritical assholes."
The memes are a turnoff for me.
I think his result might be wrong. It doesn't jump out at you from his map since it's on an edge of the area, but it also has big voids on the northeast corner of Minnesota and Michigan's Upper Peninsula. If you examine carefully, you can pick out Kinross, Gladstone, Escanaba, Marquette, Iron Mountain, Ironwood, Ashland, Duluth, Two Harbors, Hibbing, Eveleth, Virginia, and International Falls. That means the tip of Pigeon Point would put you a good 130 miles or so from the nearest U.S. McDonald's in Two Harbors, Minnesota, compared to 115 miles for the author's spot in northwestern Nevada.

The northeast tip of Isle Royale would be a little farther still, if you want to count islands that are part of the lower 48. And the northeast tip of Keweenaw County wouldn't be as far from the nearest McDonald's as the crow flies, but might be the longest drive from any McDonald's, at 143 miles by road from Marquette, in a loop around Keweenaw Bay.

I also found it interesting to compare the map defined by distance to nearest McDonald's with a light pollution map of the lower 48, used to find excellent dark sky locations for setting up one's telescope. McDonald's and light pollution largely overlap in tracing population density and major highways, but McDonald's is also overrepresented relative to light pollution in isolated areas that are popular vacation destinations. This jumped out as most apparent in south central Utah, and also holds for Arizona and New Mexico. The McDonald's voids are vast areas that are not only isolated, but also boring.
Finding a Netsuite Mexico Partner is essential
When evaluating NetSuite consultants in your search for a partner try to find one that is single-focused. By that I mean one that only handles Netsuite; one that is expert in all aspects of the software. This is especially true if your intention is to set up an e-commerce site.Finding the right Netsuite partner to help you make your site perform at its optimal best is essential to the success of your online business.
Your posts in support of Apple are so breathless. I don't want to go all ad hom, but this is a little...much.

In any case, as a long time Apple observer, you'll remember that the RDF was coined by Apple engineers (probably Bud Tribble, at least according to this story). It was both a characterization, an expression of admiration and, yes, of frank criticism.

Steve Jobs was a man, and that's OK.

This is one of the most articulate summations I have ever seen on the Indian education system. I agree with everything, except the last paragraph which I somewhat agree.

A large shoulder of the blame must be placed on the Indian student himself. He revels in the 'plagiarism' culture. Due the the fact that he can plagiarize almost everything, he does about one-fiftiest that someone in an undergrad CS major in an US educational institution would do. He boasts about how he is able to game the system to his family, friends and relatives. He sails through four years of a CS degree and then he gets a job as a 'coder' in one of the outsourcing firms for 5000$ a year.

The smart ones of course, do their time and then they escape to graduate school in USA where they learn in 18 months what an undergrad CS major learns in 4 years and some more. They go from brink of working on coder jobs for $5000 a year to working for bigcos like Google, Microsoft, Amazon, nVidia for $100,000+ etc. A small minority with the entrepreneurial itch usually work for a couple years, save, head to the Valley or home and start their own startups.

Did we read the same article? Where does Gruber "shred" anything? Bill Gates says that "Instead the purchase ended up bringing in Avie Tevanian, who could help the existing Apple operating system evolve so that it eventually incorporated the kernel of the NeXT technology.", and Gruber says "Mac OS X 10.0 was a hybrid of Mac and NeXT technology, but it was clearly the NeXT system with Mac technologies integrated, not the other way around."

What Bill Gates said was absolutely true! Rhapsody with the NeXT Mach kernel, a pulled-in, non-NeXT BSD application layer, and then various other Mac layers (GUI, Cocoa, etc). Technically there is nothing wrong with his statement.

But it doesn't sound as impressive to Steve Jobs to say that only the microkernel (which we know is a critical part of a system), so better still to simply claim Gates is the liar?
