No, the official model names of the computers have dates in them, e.g. "Late 2010", "Mid 2011", etc. I have, for example, an "iMac, 27-inch, Mid 2011".

My point is that they're not being consistent. They call it "the new iPad" in the presentation, but then the guy in the video calls it "the third-generation iPad".
I'm all for positive messages about encouraging people to move to NYC, but "our public transit system is better than yours" is pretty flippant. On a recent visit with a japanese friend, it took only 2 rides on the new york subway during normal daytime NON-rush hour before she said "I hate this subway, I would never want to ride on it".

As for the smartest and most beautiful people, maybe, but also some of the most reptilian. Had a recent NYC window-seat dining experience spoiled by some guy on the street walking up and staring with a look that would make most women wish they had a taser.

From the comments in the article, it seems the Act has not been passed and that the article is incorrect.

Anyone know enough to confirm that the article is in fact incorrect?
Evidence based dear sir... evidence based. We don't really want to start legalizing drugs based on subjective perception, we want to start having studies and publishing numbers, and make decisions based on them.

Apple hasn't historically had multiple names for a single product before. That's what I see as sloppy about it.
Why is this on Hacker News? Isn't this spam?
No, they didn't. The iPhone 4's model name is "iPhone 4", same for the "iPhone 4S". This one's model name is, according to the presentation, "the new iPad". You never see Apple refer to "iPhone 4" or "iPhone 4S" as "the n-th generation iPhone".

I'm not arguing the evolutionary/revolutionary angle, just that it's completely unprecedented for Apple to use TWO DIFFERENT NAMES to refer to ONE PRODUCT in their marketing materials.
People that are going to send messages while driving are going to do it no matter what. This app makes it much more safer that's all. Its a step in the positive direction, no doubt about it.

_Safe_, or just safer?

There can be problems with people thinking that risk has been reduced or eliminated; it can encourage more risky behavior.

http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=1821731...

"It seems counterintuitive to give drivers less information, by taking away street signs, stop lights and lane markings, to make them drive more safely."

Also, http://bicycleuniverse.info/eqp/helmets-nyt.html

"Specialists in risk analysis argue that something else is in play. They believe that the increased use of bike helmets may have had an unintended consequence: Riders may feel an inflated sense of security and take more risks."

Absent specific studies on this there's room for doubt about "much more safer".
I don't think we do that as a general habit, but that may happen in this case.

Time Machine for every Unix out there
One concern I have with garbage collected system programming languages is GC pauses. I have worked with several java applications that were simply not capable of handling fast, continuous, time critical processing tasks because every now and then they would pause for garbage collection. Most of the time they were fine, but suddenly you'd get brief but unacceptable drops in performance. Does anyone know if go is likely to suffer from this?
I could talk for hours about how my internal explorations (sometimes with drugs, often without) have dramatically accelerated my growth. I am very passionate about my change, but I don't really want to start a philosophical debate about the ethics of drug use.

I see this article more focused on the idiocy of and harm done by the Controlled Substance Act of 1970. I am convinced that was a major turning point in the descent of the USA into where we are today politically and socially. It could be argued that the law was a symptom of our society, but there is no doubt that the loss of our rights was greatly accelerated in 1970.

It's not just the USA either. Look at how it has affected policies, wars, violence, scandals, and corruption throughout the world. Look at the violence in Mexico right now: 100% attributable to the War on Drugs. Prohibition failed us in the 1920's and it is failing the world right now.
Uh... what? The house passed the bill today. The senate might vote on it as soon as Tuesday. The two bills would then need to be reconciled before Obama could ever sign it.

The photo from the top is a stock photo from Obama presenting "The American Jobs Act" (a stimulus package) back in September of last year.

I sure hope it passes.. but it hasn't yet. What kind of reporting is this?

Right now it seems more comparable to argparse than Rake or fabric. The server part is neat, but a lot of my fabric tasks would probably time out in the browser (unless this can run tasks in the background, async).
Your argument would have carried a lot more weight if, instead of talking about the new versions of Android (that only further the fragmentation of the installed base), you'd offered up their purchase of Motorola Mobility and hardware business (which will reduce fragmentation, at least for direct customers).

Up until the last paragraph I thought he was leading up to the conclusion that Apple loyalists would do well do be less dismissive of Android and admit that there might be some ideas worth borrowing there. I don't personally take sides in the iOS vs Android wars but people like Marco and MG Siegler and John Gruber seem to be much less objective in this regard than most Android fans.
As the original article points out, this is not a flash related issue.

There is something curious about LSD.

A "more than recreative" dose of 200 micrograms is still a very small dose compared with most drugs. And it will blow your head up.

According to various sources (e.g. erowid) LSD is eliminated by the liver very quickly.

So how come that the trips lasts 5-12 hs, with negligible blood concentrations?

I may very well behave as Tim Leary said a "chemical key" for certain brain circuits.
Nice. I made a version of this a while back when I worked at a design firm and meetings went way too long:

I was thinking along those lines too. In light of that facilities costs and benefits are sunk/fixed costs and irrelevant...right?
Resource overlays might have solved the problem a bit More gracefully. They allow you to specify additional resource directories that take precedence over the default one. I don't have a link at the moment, but google should be able to tell you something. You'd still have to hack around with the build file a bit, but if you're a java/android programmer you should know about ant anyway.

As long as you're learning about java build tools, take a look at the android maven plugin. It can be useful once you outgrow the confines of the default android build process.

Google leans on developers to use Google Wallet
I have a theory about mental disorders caused by drugs. It is due to what Jung described as an inability to adapt. Our energies are ideally focused on improving our ability to deal with reality, i.e., adapt. When the mind finds itself in a situation to which it can't adapt, it turns its energies inward to create internal adaptations. These are the skills via which we mature such as confidence, acceptance, or patience. Mental neuroses, in Jung's opinion, were symptoms of this internal focus of the psychic energies.

Drugs like LSD can change our mind's perceptions far quicker than we are evolved to handle. If a person's mental skills are not up to par, it leads to a regression of some magnitude which can lead to disturbing side effects ranging from minor neuroses to schizophrenia. Look at those that have mental disturbances lasting only a few weeks or months before they are resolved. This could be explained by the resolution of internal issues and focus being returned to the external world.

This is probably a bunch of hogwash, but I've never heard a more satisfactory explanation so I stick with it.
That's only the Pwnium hack, though. The Pwn2Own vulnerability remains undisclosed and unfixed.

Which leads me to the question: why aren't companies like Google customers of companies like Vupen? Too many of them to make it cost-effective? Or does Vupen (for example) prefer if those holes are not fixed? You can sell a vulnerability many times, after all.

You don't need any RTTI or code duplication for polymorphism, so long as you don't need general support for type-checked downcasts. If you do need type-checked downcasts, it can be as cheap as a single pointer on antirez's mylist->ops function table - a pointer pointing to the ancestor function table.

(Specific support for any single downcast is trivial - just write a function for the function table, typed appropriately and implemented appropriately.)
Henry Ford once said that "the competitor to be feared is one who never bothers about you at all, but goes on making his own business better all the time." Microsoft's history of wallowing in denial whenever something new emerges to threaten its legacy product is indicative of the reason why they always react defensively vs Apple. Google on the other learned from IOS and was quick to go on the offense with Android.

Not really if you're considering billable rates. A senior designer or a junior engineer could easily bill for $200. And remember, its an average. Get a principal or an architect in the room and you've got some people who might bill at, I don't know, $700 dollars an hour or more.

That might not be the company's cost, but it will show you how much of a client's budget you're burning through in a meeting.

There weren't any psychedelic effects at that dose for me, but there might be for others. You could try a lower dose, but that became a really tiny piece of paper. I did feel a little slower, and it was slightly more difficult to focus during school. It also had an anti-depressant effect. I am very fortunate that I only get migraines a couple of times a year so the fogginess was never a real issue.
Something about this doesn't sit right with me. I feel like the kind of people I would ordinarily consider role models are selling out to a video game.

Long read but good work.

I think this is more of an open letter to content publishers; content creators haven't had any trouble solving the problems that you explained.

Content has been moving copyleft (or at the very least, to more liberal licensing) every day because of the competitive advantages in emerging markets, but where copyright still holds a strong presence, the debate will not center around the consumer's point of view (unfortunately).

It is better to frame this debate around "content creators" and whether they are truly benefiting from the artificial scarcity which supports Hollywood's business model. And thus it is important to mention that this is not the content creators doing, but the backwards thinking of very powerful copyright holders, who pass very little of their economic benefits to artists compared to other mediums.
The effects of LSD (and whether or not I personally have done LSD) are completely irrelevant to your claim that it is Schedule I because it will "awaken the masses." I don't doubt that it can lead to meaningful introspection-- there are very reputable studies that show that psilocybin (the hallucinogen found in "magic mushrooms") does this for even non-drug users.[1]

The original claim which I was responding to is so baseless that I do not feel that the burden of proof is on my side.

This may be useful if you pay people by the hour, but in most companies with fixed employees you just keep people on the payroll to make sure they are available when you need it. Meeting costs become relevant when you have an excess of work vs your capacity - then meetings go in the way of doing other valuable things.
Interesting, how pointing this out does not go well there.
Really, just compare numbers of iOS5 and ICS on the devices in users hands. Both came out about the same time, but difference is immense.
Of course, there are real and valid reasons why it is so with ICS, but at the end we still have what we have.
These past two statements illustrate pretty clearly why very little research has been done on this subject. One mention of LSD, or many drugs for that matter, and you have people jumping to two extremes (that have nothing to do with the original topic of off-label treatment / pain-management.

I have no experience, so I can't say who's right or wrong. I just think it's sad that these type of arguments have given some drugs so much of a stigma that it set back medical research in this area for 40+ years.

Not all meetings are bad though and you cannot put a counter on meetings that foster future growth or stability. Spending 30mins extra in a meeting could resolve a major issue, helping the company beat competition - something that you cannot put a dollar value on easily.

Just like there is an opportunity cost of having four senior staff sit in a room for 45mins, there is an opportunity (benefit) for them to do something that helps the long-term growth too. While I have been in many meetings that were twice as long as they needed to be, I have also been in meetings that went overtime but solved technical, inter-departmental, and operational problems. Having a clock in those meetings would have been seriously counter-productive.
I wonder to what extent the law of unintended consequences will show its ugly head here. While it is cool that literally everyone and their moms can start a new business or make apps or something like that, I bet it contributes to the boom/bust cycle.

LSD is amazing stuff in that it makes bullshit real, thus expanding the mind's ability to waste time.
Oh, I know about this already. Trouble is, panics aren't supposed to cross module boundaries.

"The convention in the Go libraries is that even when a package uses panic internally, its external API still presents explicit error return values"

http://blog.golang.org/2010/08/defer-panic-and-recover.html

But crossing interfaces between modules is, IMO, core to exceptions. They're ideally suited to communicating the underlying cause of failure from the depths of the system to the top-most loop (usually a request/response dispatcher or UI event loop), where the error message can be logged or shown to the user, as required, indicating the nature of the failure.

I expounded further on this point a few years ago, related to Java's misadventure with checked exceptions, but also relevant to module crossing:
