If I remember correctly, last time I tried gitbox, I couldn't use it for more than a few minutes because it showed commits as a linear history. I understand that they want to hide complexity, but that's exactly the complexity I need to see and understand. I need a tree-based view like gitx or the github network view to keep track of what's going on with my team. That along with line-by-line staging of commits are the killer features for me.

I still use the original version of gitx because it is simple as possible but still has these two features.
You realize your link shows that after taking into account easy controls (overtime, part time work), 60% of the gap goes away, right?

You also realize that your link looks at age, but not work experience. I.e., a 35 year old woman who vanished from the workforce at age 28 gets paid less than a man who didn't. Not discrimination. It's lesser pay for lesser experience.
As a mild counterpoint, I semi-recently tried to start habitually compiling my executables with -fPIE on my AMD64 development machines, and at least several months ago, the GDB I got from Debian sid was not up to the task of debugging such a creature and would fail to attach to the process and emit mysterious error messages. AMD64 being a mature architecture where I would expect PIE to have a significant benefit, it wouldn't surprise me if this were true for ARM also, or if other toolchain elements had similar problems. So that could provide a disincentive to switch over to position-independent executables.

I lived in the Philippines for two years and aside from emailing my family once a week, usually, I was completely ignorant of the outside world.

Someone mentioned in passing that Michael Jackson had died and I thought they were just teasing our lack of worldly knowledge.

I liked this post and I think a concept at play here is that people are afraid of the quiet as they're afraid of themselves. I experimented with different teaching methods and that while I was over in the Philippines and using silence and good questions were the most effective methods I came across outside of having genuine understanding of the person/group.

Silence.
I've tried both and much prefer SourceTree.

It's a fantastic piece of software and find all the options intuitive and nicely executed.
not only some factoids but a lot of disinformation as well, especially if the subject is contentious. Most of the news establishment is about either keeping you away from real issues or brainwashing you to their tune.
I've avoided 9 out of the past 10 with a simple strategy of pulling over as soon as I feel like a cop might be following be (ideally before the lights come on), turning the dome light on in my car, rolling down the window, putting my hands on the wheels and admitting that I "assume" the cop was going to pull me over "because I was probably speeding".

This is not your best strategy if:

(a) You are driving on a suspended license

(b) You or anyone in your car have anything in the car to hide

(c) You have a radar detector (just give up)

I bring this up because, for me at least, there's no skill involved in "talking my way out of a ticket". There's no magic words, and it doesn't involve charm, just a little mindfulness.
Surely that new logo is meant to be animated...
How so?

Last time I checked, JSONP is a workaround for Single-Origin-Policy. If a site A uses JSONP to consume service from B, then A bets its money on B's good will. I don't see B can steal anything other than A's in-browser data.
Despite how terse the parent may be, that's solid advice.

Each user should have 1 account that is created on their first login. With it, each additional login offering (Twitter, Foursquare, Github, whatever) should have the ability to associate to that account to add logins.

Profile data should be abstracted into a different model (if using an MVC framework) or table, for indexing purposes if nothing else.

You might need an additional model/table for holding nonces and the like, but that will depend on the implementation. I'd recommend a simple key/value store for these.

Also be aware that you'll probably still need a traditional login mechanism as well, and a lot of checks (don't let the user disassociate all accounts; if the user is logged in, don't create a new account, etc.)

Lastly, remember that not all oAuth implementations are created equal. Linkedin doesn't give out email addresses, for example, so if you intend to use email for anything substantial, check for that and prompt the user if needed.
This is a brilliant idea.

As a young, first-time entrepreneur still learning the ropes, it'd be interesting to see just exactly how angels differentiate their 'value prop'. Which is interesting, because as startup or founder, you're always looking for unique ways for the 'right' investor to help you.

I'd be surprised if 90% of the investors didn't just pimp their successful stories or portfolio exits. And the next logical step after that is just, 'well, we work really hard for you'.
If it's possible you may be on the hook for something more serious than a traffic ticket, clam up; your implied admission of having done anything in traffic can harm you.

What a load of fatalistic nonsense. This essentially boils down to "if you haven't done it, don't try since you're clearly not meant to".

A defining feature of individuals with ADD/HD is a tendency to focus on immediate rewards versus long term goals.
This doesn't mean that X-Box and weed are what the universe 'wants' for anyone, it just so happens it's what some (or many) people are wired to respond to.

Acknowledging the gap between our natural, immediate, impulses and our long term desires is part of being an adult, and part of being human. We're capable of conceptualizing of and seeking a future that is not directly in front of our noses. Just because you're not immediately drawn to something, or just because it doesn't "feel" good does NOT mean it isn't worth pursuing.

Apropos, a great Moneyball quote comes to mind :

Billy Beane: You don't know how to play first base. Scott?
Scott Hatteberg: That's right.
Billy Beane: It's not that hard, Scott. Tell him, Wash.
Ron Washington: It's incredibly hard.
Billy Beane: Hey, anything worth doing is. And we're gonna teach you.
It's very unlikely that a court would want any of that information and sign a warrant for it, so you don't have to worry about how Google protects your information from court orders. If you boss writes Google and asks whether or not you're gay, that request is most likely going to be routed to /dev/null. If your boss gets a warrant and a judge signs it, then that's another story. Google has to comply with the law, after all. So does Apple, Microsoft, and every other company in the world.

As for protecting your information from your friends, I think Google does a pretty good job in the situations you mention. Google doesn't share your search history with anyone. You don't have to pick a gender to use Google+. You don't have to list your race, ethnicity, or religion. And, Google+ provides a number of privacy controls so you don't inadvertently share your leftist feelings with your conservative boss.

The absolute safest way to protect information is to not disclose it to anyone. That's all Schmidt is saying. If you're planning to overthrow the government, don't post your plans to Google Docs. If you're just worried that your boss won't like you, though, then you can be a little more relaxed, and share things via Google+ with close and trusted friends. Then, the main attack vector is no longer through Google; the risk is that your friends will re-share something (offline or otherwise) that you didn't want them to. And that's just life as usual.
How much is an idea worth? Between $100 and $1000 is what I got.
Me. I never use my real facebook account to login other sites.
> I'm a big believer that what is easy to produce (blog posts, daily news articles) is generally less valuable than what is hard to produce (books, journal articles, working code).

I agree with you, especially in light of your "generally" caveat, but taking the lesson from the Holmes quote above... there are contexts in which the easily accessible approach of a blog post is far more valuable than a journal article on the same topic, along with the ability to provide prompt updates when the situation changes.

Context, my dear Watson.
Whoah. Whoah. Whoah. You're handwaving around the real issue. It's not legal to find vulnerabilities by testing other people's running web applications without permission, and it never has been.

People obviously do it, all the time, against sites that haven't officially given permission (as Google and Facebook have), and most of the time they get away with it, but they are rolling the legal dice every time they do. People have been getting in trouble for doing this for years.

The people selling vulnerabilities are generally running the software themselves. Huge difference.
Growl's response to Notification Center
I would just like to quote Evan Mathis who recently did an AMA on reddit:

>Linemen are constantly banging their heads. Each of those sub-concussive impacts is having some negative effect on the brain. I really don't know how long I expect to live but it's been a great 30 years. I'm kind of willing to sacrifice a decade or two for the chance of not having to work in my 40's or 50's.
In many ways, the industrial realm is still where the forefront of interface design is, and covers an area far wider than anything software hopes to do right now. In fact, I'd consider the industrial flavor of interface design to be far truer to "interface design" than what we see in mobile/web, which is often just "graphics design" in camouflage.

In industry, UI has consequences. A confusing readout may crash a plane and kill hundreds. A warning that doesn't trigger under expected circumstances can slice a man in two. A button that doesn't require enough force to push can accidentally decapitate. The list goes on. What you get from that side are incredibly usable, incredibly easy to understand, incredibly fault-tolerant interfaces... that are ugly as hell.

Whereas from the mobile/web side we often see pointlessly obtuse, absurdly minimalistic, confusingly designed interfaces that are works of art. We often confuse these with "good interface design" because they are different, new, and beautiful.

I really wish those of us in web/mobile can get off our high horses and learn a bit from un-sexy things like metal presses, diesel locomotives, and airplane cockpits.
Good luck! As a founder I would want to know which particular markets you're strong in (either have experience or personal relationships). It will be hard to stand out talking about track record alone, so try and appeal to specific founders who you'd bring the - most - value to.

Eg. if you're particularly experienced with gaming, don't bother trying to sell yourself to a SaaS startup, there will probably be someone there specialized in that.
We should let ARMv6 die already. It's a 10 year old architecture. From what I hear the upcoming Cortex A7 (based on ARMv7) should be cheaper than ARM11 processors (ARMV6 architecture) and almost twice as fast at the same clock speed. Mozilla should stop trying to support it, although they're probably doing it because they are in desperate need of some market share on Android/mobile devices.
I used to be a smoker. Every year or so, I'd quit. I know some people have an easy go of it, but I was Mark from Trainspotting, watching that baby crawl on the ceiling. Every time I started smoking again, I'd curse myself, until I realized I was getting "better" at quitting. I'd subconsciously been making little life changes in between the painful cold turkey moments. Stuff like cutting back on how much I smoked a day, developing new ways to deal with stress, and tasks I could sub out for having a cigarette (oddly: gardening).

I've spent the last few years working really hard on developing my ability to maintain focus on a task, improving my mental stamina, and pushing my programming skills. Every time my course veered into a spot where I felt less productive, I made some painful changes and tried again. And now I'm seeing the benefits (like getting up at 5 most days of the week, and coding for 12-14 hours). No pain, no gain.
People can and will go nuts if you, for instance, accidentally mess up the DOM for their customers by getting an XSS payload cached and redisplayed in e.g. "saved search" results.

It sucks, but if your goal is to avoid legal drama, don't test without permission.

You can still get this social interaction without having to follow every piece of news that comes out. Just spend some time reading a more in depth summary of something up till this point.

I really like that background script, might have to give that a try.

If you use Emacs, you might try org-mode - it includes an archive feature that allows you quickly toss subtrees into a second associated text file, which I find handy for keeping a 'done' list.
That's inaccurate. It actually boils down to: if you don't love it, you probably won't keep doing it. And if you don't do it, you won't become any good at it. So, take the time to find what you love.
Which should be common sense. Sadly, it's a notion many understand, but few act upon.

In industry, UI has consequences.

Good point. High stakes make for deliberate interface design.
Interesting, is this intentional? I know since they switched over to the new interface (with the various search options along the top of the window) they've been trying to get people to embrace the new layout. Maybe they're trying to force users to press "Search" instead of "Google"?
I still have a problem with the statement "...make time to find out what you really enjoy". Sure, everybody wants that.

But take the example of running, or writing. Well like many people, I hated running at first, I really did. But I sticked to it because, well maybe it was some kind of challenge I had set to myself. And I got better at it. And I started to enjoy the feeling, to understand the messages from my body.

This is a classic example and I'm sure I'm not the only one to whom that happened. But let's now take the example of writing. I'm no writer, just a casual blogger (at best). I write by periods, but there is something I noticed: when I write often, inspiration and creativity flows more easily, and I tend to enjoy the activity more, while when I'm writing sporadicly, inspiration just doesn't come, and writing becomes a chore.

The opposite works too. I've always loved playing video games. This is something I really enjoyed doing. But you know what? When I turned 20, I decided that I would no longer play on a regular basis because I had better things to do with my life. Now I only play about 20 days a year, during the holidays. And that's it. And I'm happy because while I wasn't playing video games, well I got better at programming, I read Nietzsche, spent some time with friends (all things that I used to enjoy less that playing video games), and learnt how to love these things more than playing games.

Another point I'd like to raise is the fact that some things are more difficult to appreciate than others. Take wine for instance. Very few people like wine when they first try it, but when you get better at distinguishing the flavors, it is something amazing. The same goes with coffee (I mean coffee without sugar, cream, and other spoilers). Same with Jazz or Classic music. You have to learn how to appreciate these things.

I guess what I'm trying to say is: don't trust your first impression. Or the second. Or the third. You can only know what you really enjoy if you try different things, and stick to them long enough.
This reminds me of that Bill Nguyen article, where he revealed he had never even used Facebook until recently, claiming he doesn't keep up with tech. If you're a startup founder, you can't afford to be uninformed about your competition and the industry. The answer is not reading less, but reading smarter. I don't know what the solution is, but it sure isn't limiting my consumption to 1 or 2 articles.
I'm not sure about always having a likely option selected by default in a select list. The user may gloss/skim over it without verifying the default value is their desired value. And, with a valid value selected, no validation warning or error is raised. On a very terse form with few inputs, this might be ok, but the example he gave had many inputs and involved money transfers. Seems like a bad idea in that context, especially for users new to that form.
One of my favorite quotes as well, but there's some evidence in other stories that Holmes might have been trolling Watson here.

That's because it's perpetually misrepresented. Including by, but not limited to, this article.

Developing a passion takes time and effort. Speaking for myself, I've actively disliked a whole slew of things until I developed enough skill to appreciate it. The stage between starting an endeavor and finding satisfaction in it can be very damn long.

Beginner to intermediate just-about-anything isn't "fun" and won't inspire feelings of "passion" or "love". That doesn't mean people should be discouraged by their pursuit.

Some are fortunate to either be very talented or very inspired very early on. That's the exception, not the rule.
No, it's very gamey; a very little bit goes a long way, even in lamb dishes.

TL;DR but I think the future is verified correct programming. It's been around a while but been too hard to do right, or do fast. I think though that the needs for greater security and correctness will reassert themselves.
Research funding requires scientists. There's a relatively fixed supply of people who want to do research. Those who can get government or university jobs. Those who can't get jobs in the private sector. If you can't find any scientists, you don't employ any in your research lab.

This is an empirical observation, and isn't based on micro-economics, though you could frame it as such if you wanted. It's not true in all cases - Google might lure a few top computer scientists away from academia by giving them massive amounts of funding. See, academia has non-monetary rewards - the glory of working for as an academic (this may be a con), and government jobs look stable and for the public good (though libertarians might argue). Thus public funding secures the scares resource (talented scientists) at a lower cost, and private funding goes down (supply and demand, unless research happens to be a Giffen good, which I doubt).

That is so cool, and the mechanics they used to read the molecules and miniaturize the equipment look incredibly clever for me, as an ignorant in chemistry. Biology is getting more and more "hackable".

Prolog and other logic programming languages are natural rule languages. You will want to consider the semantics that the rules are given as well as how negation in the language is treated. It's also good to know the (worst-case) complexity of the problems you are trying to solve and to match them appropriately to expressive power of the rule language you propose to use.
