You honestly think they "deliberately break the web browsers in their mobile devices" and are "making it actively difficult for web developers"?

Most of my professional work over the last two years has been targeted at mobile webkit, usually Safari, and while I have frequently felt the urge to defenestrate an iPad due to some weird quirk, I never reached the conclusion that someone had consciously crippled them. Mobile Safari's DOM rendering is all sorts of wacky and requires a frustrating amount of non-intuitive workarounds, but with regards to the orientation issues you mention, browsers haven't really had to deal with rotating displays until fairly recently. So, I can understand not liking the implementation decisions someone made, but attributing it to malice seems a bit absurd.

.. and unless there are some undocumented tricks I haven't come across, I've found web development for Android devices to be a truly unholy mess, significantly worse than Safari.
Teens are major yellow staph carriers
Seven out of ten 15- and 16-year-olds in two municipalities in Northern Norway are long-term carriers of yellow staphylococci in their throats and about half carry the bacteria in their nasal passages.
I've been working on this kind of stuff on an off for a while now. I still think it's a great idea, but recommendations are a tricky business and naive bayes is not good enough.
Can someone explain to me how this is working? It seems like the equivlanet stunnel for DNS: I still have to trust my provider's (here: OpenDNS) DNS servers, they have control over the encryption, not the owner of the DNS records?
I agree with your sentiment, but it's just untrue that he can't respond on Hacker News. He may have reasons to not do it, but he certainly has the ability to.
I use a tiling WM too (ratpoison), so I empathize. But you don't need to launch a file manager in order to drag and drop. You can open the image file in another browser tab, and then drag it between tabs. Hover over the destination tab for a moment to pop it forward.

Edit: It would be useful to make an addon that adds a contextual menu item for "Drop file here", which raises a file selection dialog and delivers the result to the drop zone. Essentially it would be the inverse of this: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ez-drag-n-dro... I don't currently have the time to write it.
This is normal. Most of the textbooks are crap and teach you nothing but theory. Most EE's spend a lot of time in front of a computer these days doing nothing practical.

How long have you been training?

I'm not sure what 75% as fast means. Faster or slower? (If slower, what the point?)

I would have chosen not to go the alphabetical order way to attributing dotsies. I'd have chosen single points for vowels, for example. And the consonants grouped by phonetic similarity. You're bound to Ctrl+ to be able to read anyway. So if you're making the dotsies bigger vertically to be able to distinguish things, why use only 5 vertical slots? 6 or 7 would allow more distinctive patterns. 2 dots at the bottom for plosives, 3 dots for fricatives, etc.

Seems interesting as a personal thing, but I'd venture it's hard to teach to someone, way more than you seem to believe. Have you already taught someone in a few 20 minute trainings?

I suspect any performance issues on mobile devices are down to the plugin having to do a lot of work in the DOM, rather than the CSS3 transitions themselves being slow.

Also, it'd be interesting to know what mobile browser your seeing performance issues in. Note that Opera is unfortunately buggy when it comes to CSS3 transitions and I had to write a horrible workaround to get it working. Expect Opera to have performance issues until they fix the bug.

> Why in the hell would navigating a bunch of sequential screens full of huge icons be less of a pain than an applications folder? Thank god for application launchers in any case.

Because you can organise them, group related stuff together and so on as opposed to having a single long list. I admit that I don't really use it (I prefer stacks in the dock) but it's better than the application folder.

> And they did screw with the old ui stuff in Lion. For example, they completely fucked up Spaces when they merged everything into Mission Control. It now takes twice as long to move between spaces; you're treated to a stupid iOS-style "fade in" animation, wasting even more of your time; the steps to move a window between spaces is now more complicated; and they removed rows. Why? I assume they wanted to make it look exactly the way it does on iOS, where you just have a horizontal series of windows.

Fair enough, I didn't really use Spaces previously so I'd not noticed the changes, though I'm not sure what you mean about the fade in. Mine transitions very quickly between spaces with no fade in.

> This is simple and intuitive. It's also stupid as hell.

Can you explain this? Simple and intuitive are good. How is that stupid.

The Agile Manifesto - First Amendment
This is mostly you evangelizing REST without giving any concrete reasons as to why.. e.g REST is simple, succinct, easily scalable, consumable everywhere - these are all very subjective points.

If you really think REST is so great, do some research on why its better than SOAP (or other alternatives), and provide real reasons for those beliefs. This is just unwarranted fanboy-ism.
Apple, the king of patent trolls.
> You honestly think they "deliberately break the web browsers in their mobile devices" and are "making it actively difficult for web developers"?

In the sense that they have broken stuff because of decisions they consciously made, yes.

I doubt their motivation was to do that. I'm 90% sure that it was just an unintended (or worse than expected) side effect of trying to do something sensible with sites that weren't designed with mobile browsing in mind.

I do, however, reserve a 10% skepticism allowance for any potentially hostile policy adopted by certain big companies, including Apple and Google, that do have form when it comes to adopting (or turning a blind eye to) ethically shady practices that conveniently help the business model that actually makes them money.

I've found a problem with CMAKE and gcc from the latest Xcode command-line tools. CMAKE simply can't discover the ABI. I've tried gcc, gcc-apple-4.2, llvm-gcc, but finally it was "clang" that worked.

So for anyone using CMAKE, and having problems, this might save you (I was able to recompile GLFW and CEGUI this way):

CMAKE_C_COMPILER=clang

CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=clang++
Agree 100%.

In fact, I think self-driving cars together with decent electric engines (which already exist) can revolutionize urban landscape.

Just imagine how quiet and pollution free our cities will be if the only traffic allowed inside are electric cars, who automatically go to charge themselves when necessary.

This is complete conjecture on my part and could well be completely wrong.

His connection with Microsoft may not be completely severed. It's in Microsoft's interest to ensure that there is continuing doubt over whether or not Android is patent-free so they can continue their shakedown of handset manufacturers, so having some "expert" out there sowing the seeds of doubt every time some little claim of infringement appears would obviously be beneficial to them.
We are talking about phishing here. Don't you think they have access to a lot of recently-phished credit cards they could use to buy the forms? They would probably choose for a free competitor most likely since that is easier to automate and you don't need the hassle to try out the credit cards. I'm pretty sure web hosting companies already get a lot of phishers paying for an account with a phished credit card, though.

By the way, the scammers on dating sites use a lot of paid accounts (and pay for them themselves most likely) considering they get a lot more money out of it and a paid account seems more legitimate. Just to say that making something paid does not necessarily remove all the abuse.
If you're looking into these kinds of optimilisations then why not sidestep the problem by moving to a single page application model?

You need to claim damages withing 6 years of the infringement:

35 U.S.C. § 286 Time limitation on damages

Except as otherwise provided by law, no recovery shall be had for any infringement committed more than six years prior to the filing of the complaint or counterclaim for infringement in the action.

In the case of claims against the United States Government for use of a patented invention, the period before bringing suit, up to six years, between the date of receipt of a written claim for compensation by the department or agency of the Government having authority to settle such claim, and the date of mailing by the Government of a notice to the claimant that his claim has been denied shall not be counted as a part of the period referred to in the preceding paragraph.

You thought I was talking about malware that exists today. I wasn't. That's why your response made no sense. I was talking about in the future, when malware is installed before revocation certificates are pushed out.

This is why it looked like you were the one that was ignoring the future likelihood of malware on OSX, not me.

Go back to your first comment in this thread, and look at my most recent response to it. Then read my original comment. The problem here is that you simply misunderstood my initial comment, and replied to something which I did not say.

Yeah in the Netherlands the patent was discarded because of this. It just absurd that they can use this patent in the US.
The Grails framework has a plugin to organize resources like JavaScript - http://grails-plugins.github.com/grails-resources (scripts will by default be added to the end of the page and even if your page consists of several template files which depend on jQuery etc, they will only be included once).
The title is really misrepresentative... He's not saying entrepreneurs should go ask their parents for money - that was one small example in the whole, and its really not what the article is about.
This is a fantastic discussion about what God might want (or not want). I am a person of faith, I'm impressed by the respectful tone of many commenters even thought they are obviously from very different backgrounds (rare in online discussions). I think God likes that, too.
> Or is it still acceptable to support clients who do not enable javascript?

I deeply believe that yes, it is.
Making Javascript mandatory on websites where it should only enhance the user experience still seems to me like a very bad practice, and I hope it will stay so.

I even want to say that, if your website if correctly designed, offering its content in a Javascript-less way should not be that hard...

By filtering out stuff, you'll never expose yourself to things outside your "pattern".

HN's subtitle is "Links for the intellectually curious"

I guess HN has a dual purpose to keep people up on "breaking" hacker news, but I like to think of it as "hacker news outside your thinking pattern".

Also why do people immediately go to AWS for testing something? Doesn't a real hacker have their own server handy for experimental projects, or is it only me?

Oh please, you know who else does not ask me about my choice regarding third party cookies?

Every other major browser vendor.

Just because everybody is making money selling user information and attention to the advertisers does not negate the fact that Apple's choice is sitting on the safer side for user privacy. And you know what's also common practice? Scrap user's address book and beam it up the cloud.

Apple is at fault in both cases for failing to safeguard users from the abusers.

Path and Google are the abusers.

And I think there might be a non subtle, non nuanced difference here.
Fighting against user tracking strikes me as about as futile as fighting against piracy. Computers are intrinsically designed to store, aggregate, analyze and share vast quantities of information in the hopes of deriving meaning from them. Trying to derive a legislative solution to a technological force of nature works as well as you would expect in both of these circumstances.

I liked this quote, (partly because it's a genuine example of "begging the question" in the old philosophical sense):

"They're presumably asking Apple for the maximum 2.25 percent royalty, and that's a huge amount, especially considering that standard-essential patents typically only cover a specific and inexpensive component of the overall device."

So the inexpensive component is actually not inexpensive if you count the cost of the IPR, kind of like a song from iTunes, or a Mac OS X disc, or a Hollywood blockbuster DVD is inexpensive if you don't take acccount of the IPR. Unfortunately, without the legal right to use the IPR these inexpensive things are at best paperweights or a random string of digits, at worst grounds to be sued for piracy or patent infringement.

Of course, I'm just saying that the limit of technological advancement as t approaches infinite in some scenarios implies no human employment, so it's not obvious that just because permanent mass unemployment has never happened that it will never happen.

Since industrialization, the skill required by good jobs not made artificially lucrative by unions has become more specialized and advanced. Whereas being good at manual labor has become less useful. That's what I meant by going up the skill chain - it's harder to replace thinking jobs with tech, so more recently, people have been trying to work in those.
