Remember: the original question was whether Tesla was a sideshow; the comment you responded to argued that it wasn't, quite compellingly IMO. Similarly, Sun and Java certainly weren't sideshows either.

You're wondering about Tesla's commercial success, which is an interesting but very different question.
I reckon the average user might use one or two more google products: maps and gmail. he probably accesses gmail via gmail.com and maps via maps.google.com

One has a very... unique experience as to who an average user is if one believes the average user understands subdomains. (Or, increasingly, anything that goes into a URL box other than a search term which may occasionally have a .com in it due to legacy branding.)
I think the logo clicking decision isn't crazy. My interpretation is that Google is "un-training" users from using this valuable piece of screen real estate for a useless no-op function, in anticipation of putting a more useful function in its place.

Does anyone remember a few weeks back, when Google tested a "new way to browse Google's services"? They turned the logo into a button, producing a drop-down menu of services to navigate to.

My guess is that they found the new logo-button didn't work well, mainly because so many users saw the logo as a big button which refreshed the page or went to the inbox.

At the risk of making predictions, I'd guess this recent change is a grace period, designed to get us all used to using other buttons for reaching the inbox. And once people no longer instinctively click the logo-button, they'll introduce the new navigation which makes better use of that valuable screen space.

I could very well be way off the mark here... but it seems pretty clever to me, TBH.
This talk of contracts sounds to me just like Android's intents, which have been in there forever - one example being a app having a share button that then pops up a list of all apps that offer an endpoint for a particular data type (ie share this photo by email / sms / dropbox / google plus / facebook / any other app you may have installed) - the hosting app has no idea about the endpoints, it just casts around and offers them to the user.

It's in scenarios like this where the back button makes perfect sense, where you change context midstream, and then wish to return to the original one. I recall on an iPhone in a similar scenario (emailing a photo) that there was no obvious way back to the place the photo came from - once you switched the mail app, it felt like a UX dead-end. Change your mind about sending the mail and you're stuck. Back works intuitively by comparison. It can even work in chains- snap a photo, share via an app that does image resizing, share the result again via email; back -> back -> and you're back in the camera app.

These arrogant posts like OP really annoy me, they don't even try to understand why Tesla does things like it does. No, Elon Musk is stupid, he makes the wrong cars and we should stop talking about it.

They have to create a totally new production chain and make high quality cars. This is impossible with low margins, there is no way they can compete on price against this gigantic industry.

How do you split the files? Is that part of mysqldump (if so, how), or is it a handrolled thing?
It's not a bad idea, and I guess it depends on how much you would have to pay. Although I can imagine that the engagement of 'bought' users is less, there is also something called social proof. If your app attracts 1000 new users in the first day/week it must be worth it, right?

As far as ethics go, I don't object to these kind of things. It would be disturbing if you'd pay users for good reviews in the app store (which does happen), but paying for new users which will maybe leave a review in the app store, wether good or bad, is OK in my book.
Likewise for me with the Google Apps account I'm usually signed in as when doing searches.

Going to the non-SSL page http://google.com/history (as suggested by someone here) doesn't result in the redirect, but gives the message "Web History is not available for mydomain.com."

As usual, it seems that Google Apps users are in a different (lower) class when it comes to Google functionality.
I wonder why nobody speaks about http://teamviewer.com? I tried it and in deed just works like a charm. No need for any registration either, just download and run it directly. This took me something like 2 minutes to run it. You even not only share the screen but has also a full remote access. Yeah, it even works on any kind of OS (Win, Mac, Linux, Android, iOS).

What is so special about this new screen sharing startup which hasn't been solved already by other projects? I would even claim that Teamviewer does pretty much nails the problem of screen sharing.

He's literally complaining that apple's firmware does not init the hardware properly. If he's using the legacy BIOS boot, that's a fair assessment of that mode, but it's still not the standard way to boot the computer.
It depends on what Valve want to do. If they decide not to have the app or any of it's games use certificates, then users will have to turn off gatekeeper.
It might give you plausible deniability in front of a jury (emphasis on might), but that says nothing about assumptions or biases made by law enforcement officials or prosecutors.
I'd pay. I've tried going the Google Adwords route with one of my sites, and the return on investment was poor (definitely greater than $1 per sign-up), while waiting for organic traffic to come from Google despite all the back-links and SEO you can think is like waiting for your hair to go grey.

$1 per user (including them actually engaging with your site: adding a profile, posting some basic content etc.) sounds like good value to kick-start a new project.

So if one Steam game starts messing up Macs, Apple could pull Valve's certificate and all Steam games would stop running on Macs with the default settings? I guess that just encourages Valve to be careful about what they sell on their store.

It will be interesting to see what Valve decides to do.

At the risk of sounding like a Microsoft shill (I'm not), you can already have your cake and eat it if you use Windows Workflow on top of AppFabric.

It has an arguably better feature set (including extensive transaction, correlation, failover, load balancing support), is extremely robust and can be deployed on EC2 or your own infrastructure (or both at the same time - you can scale your workers up on EC2 for example). The learning curve to do something useful is about 2 days.

It's pretty cool actually.

For now, handrolled. The idea is to be able to do either `cat * .sql' or just `cat LAST-PART.sql'. I run mysqldump once per each large table with --where="_rowid >= $FROM AND < $TO" argument to mysqldump, and call mysqldump in loop with consecutive $FROM and $TO. It works, it gets the job done, but it's not transaction safe.

That `_rowid' is a reserved symbol in MySQL. Refers to table's PRIMARY KEY (but only if it's single INT). In the usual case, the script doesn't have to know table's PRIMARY KEY.

Another way would be to use `rolling checksum' to split files; the concept described in http://beeznest.wordpress.com/2005/02/03/rsyncable-gzip/
But you could end up with dump files split in the middle of SQL statement, not very cool.

> The official title of the article is "How to Remove Your Google Search History Before Google's New Privacy Policy Takes Effect", and the writing itself is much more neutral than this submission title.

The submitter just removed the "How to" crud from the title! :)

If that encroaches too much on your ability to neutrally assess a topic title, well, this ain't gonna be your century.

> It's doubtful at best that Google's "log" of you would become compromised (unless your personal account were compromised, but then this would have been a problem anyways!). It also isn't the case that some Google employee is reading row after row of Google's customer DB snooping on individuals.

Both of these cases have happened in the past.

Personal accounts have been compromised. That this sucks for other reasons doesn't make it less of a problem--labelling your house keys with your home address is still a stupid idea, regardless of whether losing your house keys "would have been a problem anyways!".

Google employees have been snooping on individuals (minors, even) in Google's customer DB. They were fired on the spot, but afaik no legal charges were pressed.

So basically you just told yourself a pretty lie, writing what you want to believe, not the way things actually are. How can you speak of neutral writing?

And then there's of course the government requests:

http://www.google.com/transparencyreport/governmentrequests/

See, on one hand I can see your point. IF all my data would forever remain under the sole control of Google AND will only ever be used in the ways they tell us it is used now THEN yes I concede there is little practical concerns to be worried about.

But if you believe those two requirements are met today and will remain so as long as Google possesses relevant data about yourself, you are deluding yourself.

The data is already being given to the US government and maybe others too.

Data leaks are not going to get less, and exploits will not stop to be found, and at some point it'll be Google's turn.

Finally there's the possibility that Google will have a change of "mind" and either turn evil, sell their data, starts doing less conscionable types of data mining, or maybe simply becomes utterly lax in protecting your data. It's a risk.

Combine all those risks and it'd be pretty naive to just ignore the facts and hope for the best.

Are you worried of people "obnoxiousing" someone of hatred out of spite? Well, there's two things, one is that only people you messaged can mark you as obnoxious, and only once. Two, hopefully after some tuning, becoming a "recognized pain-in-the-behind" would mean that a significant part of the site (or at least the part of it you're likely to message) considers you obnoxious.

Or are you afraid of bots?

Also, another idea: analytics. This is ripe for psychopathic manipulative people, so should be treated delicately, but for people who are just socially awkward, aspergers, or using non-native language this might be a huge boon.

After you send enough messages, you get some vague idea. Say, "people who answered questions x like this are likely to think you're obnoxious", "people don't even read your message — there's something wrong with your nick or the small version of your photo", "if you use the following words, the probability of answer goes up this much".

BTW, on OKC, I would totally love the ability to get analytics on questions I wrote.

This article is all about errors that a management team could make, but I'm talking about their intentions. Google's management team cannot intentionally pursue goals that are bad for shareholders.

I doubt that it would be legal to do so, but I'm not a lawyer, so suffice it to say that it's not practical because they would be removed from their management positions very quickly.
Working at a large company, I was once informed that the company logo should, on a dynamic user interface, do exactly nothing. Clicking on it was not to go home or help. Much as I disagreed, the powers that be dictated otherwise.

Could be similar reasoning here: lawyers or marketing or some such got involved.
Well. I'd say it's more like five years away from any sort of mainstream acceptance. Not that I'm some anti-hipster, but I don't think it will become mainstream right away BECAUSE:

1) People without smart phones exist. I'm one of them.

2) Nobody is going to be satisfied with phone hardware to control both their phone and their sit-down setup. At least not for a few more generations of Moore's law, and Moore's laws current method for increasing power, stacking cores, is a battery vampire. People who want their phones to actually run for a non-trivial length of time will end up under-utilizing their hardware while on the go. (Hardware that they still payed money for.)

3) So lets say we still have the sit-down setup in the form of the base station. This brings up it's own set of questions:

[A] Where is data stored? What if someone steals your phone? What if you don't have one?

[B] Where does the computing power come from, is this just a shell for the phone or does it have some power on board?

Now we can wrangle over these questions for a while, but I'm quite confident the answers are "The base has an internal HD" and "The base has computer parts inside." at which point I have to ask; how is this that different from what we have now?

I mean, sure my desktop is a little heavier to move than a "base" might be. But unless this base is going to be like the old 90's laptop bases (Huge flat thing with peripherals that plugs into a smaller top.) I can't really see myself moving it. If it has a full fledged keyboard, monitor, and mouse, I can't see myself moving it. If it doesn't, then it's a laptop. With all the problems laptops entail. (Which can only be fixed by "desktopifying" it.)

Of course, marketing conquers all. That is what everyones always going after right, true marketing? Or was that true love? I think it was the marketing...
