The author speaks of writing some small scripts. I write some small scripts for my use for small tasks, if I come across any problem.
Just in case, does anyone know a place(website,book etc.) where such small task scripts are collated so that anyone can use them like small assignments?

Advanced Bash Scripting Guide by Mendel Cooper(http://tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/) has some good scripts which I have come across for some practice but it isn't ordered. Any others ?

To be honest, in the case of node.js I don't think there's an overabundance of hype. There is some hype, to be sure, but mostly there's just a lot of buzz from people who are using node and enjoying it.

As long as things stay out of the snake oil zone I think it's ok. And that applies to NoSQL, "cloud" computing, mobile apps, etc.
Emotions of tweeter feeds #tweetEMO
The usual boring response on that, but which I found always more true every day, is that you've got to enjoy the path forward to actually be happy. When looking back to my life, I think the moments I were going forward were the happy times - the ones backward were a bit harder.

You've got to decouple your happiness sentiment from your overall self-worth. People's happiness doesn't grow much once they've got 50000$ a year a famous study said. But one's self-worth still grows when millions of $ are adding. Once you've conscious of the difference between the two, you start decoupling a bit your happiness from your success. Of course, you can't totally, but letting things a bit loose helps your health, stress, and life quality. Trying too much is dangerous.

Last, don't forget life isn't undimensional (god would that be boring if so). Beside the success you define, there are friends, love, entertainment elsewhere. It's not a path, rather a space where you can go to many many directions additionally to the success strategy you define for yourself.

That's a pretty low option of foreigners; in practice I think they take which bits of American culture they like, adapt it if necessary and ignore the rest. I would guess most of FB's non-USA users use it for the same reason USA-users do; its good at what it does, and all their friends use it.

How to Deliver a Killer Business Presentation
I think the problem is that people are allowed to open their physical mouths when they are in the presence of the developers.

I worked in one company that was managed nearly perfectly. If someone came to the developer to tell him something, he wasn't met with "hello". He was met with "Write a ticket!". Even though all employees occupied almost undivided space of less than 50 sq meters.

Ticket system was only legal means of communication. Tickets had to be written well because you had no other way to reach the developer with your message. From time to time developer came to the ticket issuer to verify some details but he might as well just ask further details in ticket comments.

There was one half an hour meeting per week that was attended by product manager that knew what she wants and two or three programmers working on the interconnected parts of the same thing. Product manager was available for instant contact for the developers at any time and had enough decision power to respond instantly.

Developer could talk to the other developer when he had an issue or was interested in what the other developer was doing and if he has any issues. These "meetings" where usually announced via skype or happening at natural time when target developer was already out of zone because he was just getting back from toilet of with fresh cup of tee.

There were of course "sky is falling" events that needed to be responded to urgently. There were communicated to developers by product manager via skype or in person but they were rare and serious enough so the developers wanted to deal with them in the first place to get "I just saved the day" feeling.

Ticket system was the communication hub, wiki and google docs were the knowledge hub. Skype was when you have to ask someone about something but you don't want to make noise or interrupt them. And mouths were for drinking tee (or coffee) and swapping short remarks with the developer that is at the moment looking at the same physical screen as you do.

And no slacking off because you monitor is visible to everybody.

I think that the issue described by the blog post author would be resolved by "boss" telling Sue to describe step by step how to reproduce the issue or record a movie of her reproducing the issue and create a ticket for the developer with that description or the link to that movie. Boss could further (if it's really important) ask the developer politely at 30 minutes Monday meeting if he could take a look at this issue (after checking of course before the meeting if developer didn't do that yet).

If you allow for other thing of communicating business issues (like email, skype, meat flapping) then the ticket system becomes cargo cult device that no one really pays attention to.
Science seems to agree with you [1]. The human race is so successful because from almost birth on, humans are collaborating. Some patterns can be seen where small children are much more willing to collaborate and after success to share the result of work with others than apes with similar individual problem solving capabilities.

* Most management responsibilities have nothing to do with technical matters. A manager should serve the developers, not order them around.*

Exactly. That's what good management does: insulate the programmers from as much nonsense that is possible. A good manager has some grasp of the field so that he can block at least the most outrageous feature requests from the devs or at least delay asking about them until a weekly meeting or something. If the devs have problem, the manager will drive the issues through the cogs and clogs of the organization and bureaucracy instead of using valuable developer time to track those issues.

An anecdote: I have had travelling arranged by a competent office manager and a company-wide travel reservation and approval system. Guess which saved so much time from everyone, sending an email to the office manager "I need to fly to X next Tuesday, my boss on Cc: with this" and afterwards dropping a stack of receipts back to her for filing reimbursements, or a dozen people trying to figure out what's the best way through the travel system without sacrificing too much work time on that and still ending up scanning individual receipts for uploading to the system.

I've been turned off of all these mobile frameworks. Tried many, but no one has "felt right". Some got completely different design patterns (Sencha Touch), some are almost dead (jQTouch), some are large, ugly and bloated (jQuery Mobile), use non-standard stuff (Jo framework), etc. Sencha is really close to emulating a native feel, if that's what you're looking for, and jQTouch is really easy to get started with. Pros and cons.

HP's Enyo framework seems really interesting though, as does Mulberry. But sometimes the best framework is no framework at all - Backbone + Zepto can take you a long way (but lacks fancy mobile UI widgets). It all depends on the project.
The company I work for ( http://mobile.conduit.com ) also utilize phonegap for tens of thousands of apps, and it has been mainly good for us, allows us to really go cross platform and build a thin native client around it to perform some brilliant looking apps!
Indeed, and in WebEx the host can auto-mute everyone, but then MUST tell people to unmute if they have a question, otherwise it is meeting #fail.

I've also had the opposite, where the host is UN-muting me, when I'm in the middle of eating my lunch during the meeting. I never got around to asking him WHY he wanted to hear me slurping my tea and crunching on my crisps (chips for the Americans).

Or better yet, pay your employees what they're actually worth to you, and remind yourself regularly to evaluate them for raises.

Question asked by Company's HR to my Friend..
I like that they focused on "this is a service problem." This is something Alexis Ohanian mentioned when he started talking about SOPA and PIPA on TV, and I recall that point being dismissed pretty quickly (although unfairly). This article addresses the core problem of convenience. It reminds me of why Grooveshark exists: their mission statement is to compete with piracy by offering a better experience than downloading or torrenting music. It actually delivers on that. The artists still get paid while Grooveshark legally and safely operates within the DMCA. For $5/month, I can listen to all the music I want on my mobile device using Grooveshark, and I know that they're going to take care of all the royalty distribution going on in the background.

Then what could he do but wait? Stare mindlessly to the screen, waiting for the flow to kick back in just to be interrupted again by another email or ring? To preserve your mental health, you need to do something sensible while waiting for your stack of work to clear ahead. Reading HN is probably one of the best and productive activities.
Is this from the same people behind the social airport concept that was pitched during the office hours at Techcrunch's conference?
Yep. I didn't get to mention the purely tactile reasons we went with a printed map, but it was definitely a big factor.

If you have a look at the "Fold" section on the kickstarter page, we put up two diagrams from the original paper describing the folding method we used, that shows a light-traced image of how one's hands move when unfolding a conventionally folded map vs. a miura folded map. The latter simply <i>feels</i> much better!

spoiledtechie, I worked in the media business (Nielsen) before I started my last 2 companies (Piictu, Easy Vino) and your speech sounds familiar but too generic. The broadcasting business is so ripe for disruption but it does have a lot of tricks. Your question lacks too much info to give you a good recommendation but at first sight I'd say NO! Don't take money from other broadcasters/competitors. But we should probably talk about it more. If you want, shoot me a skype call (hugo.bernardo). Just to make sure, I have ZERO interest in that space right now. Just curious...
Really like that idea. Would love to see more sites implement it.
Personally I find music without vocals, or very familiar music in the background to be useful. Blocks out the occasional car going past. Post-rock is really good unless it sends you into a trance haha.

Actually hate working with headphones on now. Similarly using music I love to block out noisey work environments doesn't work. (Well, noisey work environments just don't work do they!).

What Makes an Awesome Board Member
Not exactly what you're describing, but commandlinefu.com can be quite useful.
Oh I'm not talking about money at all. I find money to be simply a side-product of things I want to do that I consider successful.

But, for example, I want to publish a book. I know for a fact as soon as I publish it, I will be all mad at myself because it isn't a bestseller. Once a book becomes a bestseller, I'll be mad at myself that why haven't I written two bestsellers yet?

When I have two bestsellers I'll be upset that why didn't I put more deep meaning in them and wrote trash.

Or to take an example I've already got the "achievement unlocked" on. My blog gets ten times more monthly traffic than it did a few months ago, but I get really upset with myself why I no longer seem to be able to produce regular-ish spikes like I used to? Or that one post that got insane traffic, why can't I write something as good/popular anymore?

Things like that. I'm the kind of person that honestly enjoys the journey, but I just always want more more more.

As for money, eh, I'll be happy when I can simply not worry about that. Money isn't something to be happy about, money is a tool to do cool things with.

Old Town Campground 'N Retreat
While your point is true, which is why I am encouraging programmers to say no to schedule lying, my point was poor non-tech managers talk down to and contradict their highly paid experts, rather than use them to solve their problems.

Yes, programmers can fix this to some degree (the last chapter of the art of software estimation is great for teaching this), lots of these changes are something management has to do.
Again: Compulsory licensing for streaming music has gone a long way towards fixing this for music.

The tech industry and consumer advocates should promote the same for video as a reasonable policy solution.

(Edit: BTW, if you are a journalist please consider doing a story on this. Judging by upvotes from previous times I have suggested this it is quite a popular idea)

You mean "if he is clueless" perhaps?

Managing experts in a field means using their expertise. I'd call not using that clueless, so you'll usually only get fired by the clueless.
This is important - doing business wherever you are in the world will always be subject to local customs in my view. This is despite increasing globalization; there will always be different languages, currencies, market structures, legislation etc.

It is not piracy, it is sharing. We were learning from childhood that sharing is a good thing.

"You cannot build hype out of nothing. "

Yes you can. There was no hype around asyn java libs (netty , grizzly, mina), however the chance of java folks having these problems is way higher than for javascript front end devs (the main audience of node).

Personally I find the whole idea of relying on a third party site for sign-in a bit odd. Let it be Twitter, Google, Facebook or anything else... there will always be people, who don't have an account for that specific site, don't want one, or don't want to let the site's owner know what their name on that third party site is. Another problem: aren't Google and Facebook blocked in some countries like china?
Again, the whole idea doesn't work out in my opinion.
I see you've given the issue a lot of thought.

Sorry for asking the obvious, but do you really need huge amount of data to keep development productive? How often do you use history that is several years old? Could you not archive it?

Or is the sheer number of files the problem, even ignoring history?

This is not a "git is perfect, fix your workflow" post, but I'm genuinely interested in what you have to say. Also, it seems like making git faster is a increasingly difficult task, given the amount of effort that has already been put into it.
