I suspect there are a lot of throw-away lurker accounts created merely to sign into something that needed a Facebook sign-in (typically a Google result). I've created a few of those myself. I do not have a "real" Facebook account, and I have no plans to create one.
Does Facebook really believe that because they have the most users, they should also have the biggest git repo?

Amazon and Google have already solved this problem, and the solution is to reorganize things into smaller manageable packages.

Ask HN: Psychology Books
One area I've found myself deficient recently is in my understanding of people, what makes us tick, and why we do the things we do. I ran a search and didn't find anything related, so I was wondering if HN had any suggestions for good books about Psychology?
Backbone.js and ember.js good read
If you have no control over who might sit next you you I agree. However imagine if you were flying NYC-SF and could find out who were entrepreneurs, software engineers or designers on you flight and talk shop for a couple of hours.

The key issue is discovering if the interest is mutual. It's not unsolvable. Merely intractable.

So will my web server handle HTTP 1.1, SPDY, and HTTP Next then?

Is Mozilla acting in the interest of the Open Web or was this a bargaining chip with their $300M default search provider deal?
No, this is awesome. Everything has been duly noted! We definitely owe you a beer :)
According to the article, it sounds like they are doing this to push Google+ .
Us too. After a year, we're still really happy we went with Closure, but trying to convince most javascript developers outside our team to learn it has an uphill battle. The learning curve is rather steep, there are no tutorials besides Michael Bolin's (excellent) book, and the similarities to java turn some people off.

But once you get past all that, you have a powerful library with a good set tools for unit testing and a compiler that does dead code removal, function inlining, optional type checking through JSDoc annotations, etc. Its miles ahead of any pure-javascript solution because compilation is so tightly integrated into the whole development process. And yet you don't have to compile to run the code in development, so debugging is no harder than before.

That said, it's worth noting that the closure library is not a framework. You build your own application structure, models, etc, so it's definitely more work to get started.

Judge ups the ante for Oracle vs Google.
As I read these comments, I was imagining a non-technical supervisor sitting down a programmer on a relatively small project to learn how their work is done, from start to finish. The project should be short enough for the manager or like person to see it completed over a few sessions, including the overview, the draft, and the testing and problem-solving.

The programmer would explain the goal of the new project, like so: "We need to design a module that talks to the what-what the customer is using. It has to do three things: it must take an order from the what-what, then perform the appropriate action, and finally receive information back from the central system."

"So, we begin with the first part of the module: the part that will take an order from the what-what. It needs to listen for a message from the unit the customer is interacting with. Then, it needs a rule concerning what to do with each order, that is, what instructions to follow."

Once the basic form and actions of each section are established, then he or she can explain in more detail the actual working parts: "Now we need to step through the list of orders. With each order, we will check our rule set and perform the appropriate action. Once there are no more orders, we will tell the computer (or program) we are finished and it can proceed to the next step, which is receiving information back from the central system."

Throughout, the programmer only needs to explain conceptually the work he is doing: Even the difficult or intricate concepts (details of network connections, perhaps) he may illustrate. The details of the actual programming language do not need to be explained for this purpose. (That is, he does not need to say, "Now we write 'Blob userOrders = new (Blob)' to create a new blob", or "We will receive the orders from the customer into an array ("What's that?") and step through them with a 'for' loop.") He or she might use a pen and paper to draw a diagram of the module as they design it.

Once the manager has the overview of the system and knows how it is supposed to work, perhaps they can follow the writing of tests for it: "We will send it some simple test orders to see if it follows them correctly....And now we will give it an illogical order--did we check for a bad order?"

Finally, the manager or supervisor can join the programmer as he or she goes back to the code to identify the source of the trouble. (More details could be added here.)

The programmer does not need to oversimplify, but as they go deeper into the project together, the programmer can explain more technical details. Previously, these details would have been distracting, overwhelming, or incomprehensible to the the person they are teaching, but now they enable them and are necessary to see what the program is doing at this level, and why the problem occurred as it did.

Could this be a realistic scenario, in certain cases at least?
Perhaps it does look like that. It also looks like Mozilla has a healthy incentive to shadow Google in the form of their recent search deal.

Is Mozilla doing the best thing for the Web or further cementing the current browser landscape? Will it be better when I have to write my crawlers to work with HTTP 1.1, SPDY, and HTTP Next?
Let me be clear: I have no issue with trance as a form (highly repetitive 140 bpm 4/4 dance music). But trance music as a scene since the mid-90's has been characterized by melodramatic, over-produced, formulaic and not forward-thinking music. It's akin to being a filmmaker and disliking plotless Hollywood action films.

These days there's a lot of innovative and interesting dance music coming out in the wake of dub step. I tend to play stuff like this:

Is this sort of like a proprietary Chef or Puppet, or like a Linode StackScript or something?
No, you're misunderstanding what I'm saying with regards to publishing stable changes.

Say you have two branches: master and next. Stable work goes in master, unstable work goes in next. When the code is ready for consumption, you merge it into master.

Anyone who is using a project has it setup as a submodule. They add post/pre-commit hooks to update all project submodules. These submodules pull from master.

This way, everyone will get all stable changes on all submodule projects at the time of the next change to their own project.

Fwiw, pinterest didn't start with categories. A few weeks ago, I did some blog archeology looking for early mentions of Pinterest and examined the screenshots, and announcements on the company blog. They started out with tags on each pin. I don't doubt that they looking at the advertising value of certain keywords, but I suspect they probably analyzed tags and board names to inform the choice of categories.
I think that you are taking it a bit too far here. If the new CEO couldn't pick up after he had laid all of that out, it was most likely hopeless. After years and years of banging my head against walls, I have learned that sometimes people are just not capable of processing what you're talking about, and that the best course of action is to leave these people totally alone and try again in 2-3 years and see what has changed.

Sure, he could have tried to lead an internal revolution or whatever, but the reality is that after he hurt the wrong person's feelings on the third day he would have been fired anyway. He could have spent a few days laying out a very formal reiteration of everything he had just told the new CEO, but after she discarded the executive summary so flippantly, what would have been the point?

I disagree with a key point in this article that postulates that Series A investors have taken on as much risk as Series B investors.

The mere fact of knowing that other investors - especially if they are large and famous ones - have already invested in a business by itself reduced your risk. Having 3 years worth of information about a company vs 2 years worth of information reduces your risk. There is more to risk than the binary "unproven business model" vs "proven business model" that the author seem to make it out to be.

The author's own words: "Having said all that, I believe that it requires a lot of courage to be the first to invest in an unproven business."

Why? Because there is more risk.
Hey now. There's probably a bit more blame on .Net than there needs to be :) I agree though, there seems to be quite a few wannabe .Net architects who design unmaintainable behemoth deployments just because they can. In fact I'm helping one company completely replace their old system because all the developers who built it left in a hurry and no one now knows how to run the custom deployment. But that's not the language's fault. There really are some good companies out there doing awesome things with .Net

Yes, there was a way to have it but not have it. When I was in high school 25 years ago, they tore it out of magazines and put it up on their locker door, the cover of their notebook, or on the wall of their bedroom. More recently, my wife had a folder of stuff. MySpace pages and photobucket albums used to have a lot of aspirational imagery, and even today, that is a big use of Tumblr.

Pinterest is a nicely targeted version of things that women have been doing online in other ways for the last decade, and offline for much longer.

I can't figure out what you're trying to say, but if you think there are enough programmers as smart as Bram to staff an entire company, you're a fool. And if you think they all want to work for Bram, you're doubly so. Lots of them want to start their own projects, not work on somebody else's.

Kiswahili has implosive stops, which are pretty weird for English speakers, but it's certainly possible to make yourself understood if you treat implosive consonants like their closest English counterparts.

As a Bantu language, Kiswahili also has a very elegant (and reasonably regular) noun class system that makes grammatical agreement easier, IMHO, than in Latin or Greek. On the whole, I'd agree that it's among the best bets for an English speaker interested in learning a non-Indo-European language.

Sure - Tcl has had an event loop since sometime in the 90ies, and you could always do stuff in C.

However, Node is written from head to toe to take advantage of that style of coding, whereas Tcl never had the assumption that everything had to be async, so many calls block. Same thing with Python and Ruby, except that they're relative latecomers to the embedded
"select loop" game (sure, modern systems have moved on from select, but it still conveys the idea).

Erlang has been around for a while, and does async beautifully, but for every person who knows Erlang there are 10,000 who know Javascript.
God loved Jacob... and David. What about Moses?

God says...

19:3 Nevertheless there are good things found in thee, in that thou
hast taken away the groves out of the land, and hast prepared thine
heart to seek God.

19:4 And Jehoshaphat dwelt at Jerusalem: and he went out again through
the people from Beersheba to mount Ephraim, and brought them back unto
the LORD God of their fathers.

19:5 And he set judges in the land throughout all the fenced cities of
Judah, city by city, 19:6 And said to the judges, Take heed what ye
do: for ye judge not for man, but for the LORD, who is with you in the
judgment.

19:7 Wherefore now let the fear of the LORD be upon you; take heed and
do it: for there is no iniquity with the LORD our God, nor respect of
persons, nor taking of gifts.

Since this is about html5 frameworks, phonegap and titanium don't really fit in. those work well to wrap around the html5 content (also GameClosure)

Approach seems to break down to JS driven app development vs. a more dom/html starting point.
ember.js, sencha2, and possibly enyo seemed great for a component driven dev approach, but hard to deeply modify the UI behavior without fighting with the framework. These frameworks are for making your html app look like the apple UI guidelines, and "just like native". We are building games, so actually don't want to look just like other apps...
So for us using backbone (+mustache) gives a lower-level approach to code structure + binding, combined with a UI module for when you need a touch-UI widget (which is a pain to code by yourself). I'm sure other folks more experienced with ST2 may disagree but thats what we found.

Since we are doing non-wifi browser based distribution, the OTA download size is also a concern. If you're packaging/bundling for the app store this shouldn't be a concern.

=== appmobi / jq.mobi

http://www.jqmobi.com/

PROS: lightweight, self-contained, plug-in support

CONS: animation + ajax bugs when we tried. seems like a single company product

HN thread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3470946

4k jqmobi
15k jq UI
=19k total

=== zepto + jqtouch

http://jqtouch.com/

PROS: lightweight, small download, decent functionality, backbone support right off. very easy to work with.

CONS: missing many basic UI components tho plugins may exist. zepto animation.fx is limited. BIG problem: very slow on mobile? we had problems with transitions on iPod/HTC devices. Sencha seems much faster. jqmobile isnt really active project - main dev is now on sencha touch? tho commits are trickling thru https://github.com/senchalabs/jQTouch/network

9k jqtouch.min.js
20K zepto.min.js
=29k total

=== jquerymobile + jquery

PROS: very active project, extensive functionality

CONS: dependency on jquery, then also plugins eg for CSS animations. supports lots of non-webkit devices we dont need to support, so not needed code. had some problems with creating copies of pages in the DOM when you navigate. transition code is based on jqtouch, tho performance seems improved? http://jquerymobile.com/demos/1.0a2/#docs/pages/docs-transit...

24KB jquery.mobile-1.0.1.min.js (24KB
30k jquery.min.js.gz
=55k total (+plugins?)

So we are currently digging into the transitions+DOM issues on the last two, and deciding if the 40k is a killer given 2G networks in many places... but would be interested to hear what others think.
