Proper attribution has been a part of the web since... well since forever.

I think this is a great article because the idea of curation has and is continuing to become something that's very trendy. And of course, with trends, people feel the need to redefine things that often don't need to be redefined. (And on the way they're bastardizing the meaning of curation as well)

Marco hits on a number of great points and the notion of being credited for discovery is a huge one. Like many ideas (startups, creative or otherwise), discoveries can happen in parallel. Discovery tends to be heavily overrated

ps - we have to choose one) but like em both! What are your thoughts?
I'm not saying that its easy, but the problem formulation in the article is simplified enough to be solved by this method. So I guess that my major objection is how the problem is stated.

Also in practice you don't really need N times the hardware. You pick out the queries with the worst jitter and either solve it or install two or three of these services, and you are good to go.

To summarize, I agree with you in principle, but would like to add that the method still is sound, but perhaps not in its most extreme form.
Yes. I find in America if you don't keep filling the space with noise when thinking, you lose the chance to finish your thought.

You never really mean pixel, so I guess you're arguing for the removal of the px unit completely. (bzbarsky explained this better: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3697227 ) Then designers would start asking for a unit that is resolution-independent but always an integer multiple of pixels — essentially px under a different name. The px unit is really useful, but maybe it should have had a different name; it's too late to argue about it now.

To claim that modern food production is sustainable when it is extremely dependent on cheap energy from oil seems quite a stretch stretch to me. It may work at the present oil prices but how many times can oil prices double until current practices stop working?

Note that I don't believe this will be food induced Armageddon. Rather, I expect a retooling just as big as the green revolution towards energy efficiency and energy output (as opposed to the great input that happens currently).

Good, I'm glad we agree about the main point. I don't even see that much of a difference between the creation of ideas and other forms of creation that it needs to be protected by costly monopolies. Writers, artists and philosophers have also flourished since the dawn of history without raising much ruckus about idea theft.

Sorry, I mistakenly downvoted you. I only skimmed the article since I already knew the history of px, and then I misread your comment; I thought you were arguing the opposite position (which is indeed dumb and pedantic).

Of course, when you complain about being downvoted it shames people into upvoting you (sort of like when adults bully children into fake-apologizing for something they're not sorry about).
I certainly don't disagree - I was just addressing the specific problem of companies convincing themselves/employees that their patents are only for 'defensive purposes', and then suffering a change of priorities. If the company legally commits to defensive-only use, then there can be no change of heart later; as such, employees that take issue with supporting a given patent as a bona fide invention should push for such a committal rather than relying on non-binding promises.

Quantcast actually gives 1 million pageviews a day (and not a month), which is, yes, 10/s (and 550 times less than Tumblr).

Either Quantcast numbers are very off, either Posterous can indeed run on very few servers.
> Other languages are inconsistent? The answer is not to be inconsistent, and you can be consistent as a method or as a builtin function.

With dynamically typed languages, it is very hard to "be consistent as a method" since there are no tools to enforce that consistency. Social cues usually go 90% of the way, but not all the way whereas a function/generic method handles that just fine: to get a length, you call `len`. Period. The developer does not really have the option to do otherwise, unless he wants to opt out of the language's ecosystem.

Actually what I said above is not entirely true, there is one situation where it is "quite easy" to handle method consistency in a dynamically typed language: when you deal with mixins.

Because mixins have preconditions (methods and/or properties which need to exist for it to work), they enforce those names or they can't be used at all. And of course any method brought in by the mixin is "enforced" by default.

So is it with most things iteration in Ruby for instance: Enumerable mandates that a core internal iterator named `#each` exists (as well as #<=> optionally) and as a reward for doing so it gives about 30 methods "for free". That enforces consistency in collection traversal, because even if you reimplement some or all of these methods in the long term (for efficiency and whatnot) getting them "for free" out of the box is valuable.

THis isn't surprising. Python 3 was advertised, back in the time, as "mainstream, please don't bother yet, we'll do a few more 2.x releases while letting the community catch up with jumping through the hoops of Python 3".

That is, at the same time when they removed some tried and true language constructs people liked and didn't add more of any powerful features that everyone was hoping for.

I bet Python 2.x will dominate for a long time, possibly with PyPy w/ LLVM becoming the de facto implementation instead of the discontinued CPython. Also, another party will at some point continue developing the 2.x line further.

1000 upvotes for this man.

All these idiots at SXSW and the New York Times would quite literally rather have these people be homeless and invisible than have someone dream up a job where they could get paid for providing value.

This blows my mind, it's utterly insane.

As for the "exploitation" of paying them $20 a day rather than minimum wage times 8 hours or whatever, this might be the cleanest example ever of why minimum wage laws cause unemployment. The job might pay for itself at $20, and might not at $8.50 * 8 = $70.

As always happens, person A is providing person B with money in exchange for a service. And person C is standing on the sidelines screaming that A is "exploiting" B by not paying them enough money. But person C is doing nothing for person B, and will do nothing for them, and wants nothing more than for person A to go out of business and person B to go back to being invisible.

Simon-Erlich wager is the mother of all cherry-picks. It tracks the decline in oil prices in the 1980-1990 decade from over $110 to $30. Driven by cheap energy, commodity prices declined as well.

http://inflationdata.com/inflation/inflation_rate/historical...

There are reasons to believe the era of cheap oil / energy is over, due to a combination of peak oil and the globally connected population growing from 1 billion to 3-4 billions and then some more. Think China + India joining the global economy. Indeed, the oil prices are now close to the Dec 1979 maximum. Commodity prices follow:

It will be interesting to see how China's single-child-per-family experiment plays out. That decision alone might very well trigger a downfall both in economic and cultural terms.

The thing is quantity of life is growing where quality of life is low, and the quality of life is growing where quantity of life is low.

So it's sort of the worst of both worlds: the developed countries could afford a population growth in a humane and civilized way but they won't. Conversely, developing countries with overly high population growth become a terrible mess that they couldn't afford.

However, I also think that nature will balance itself back in a way or another. Of course, we won't be asked whether we would like to join or not, and necessarily isn't going to be a nice ride, but the tension we, as a species, are building will release at some point.

The best part of unsustainability is that it can't be sustained.
The patent system is so that almost every non-trivial software can be considered encumbered. Yet the chances of being sued successfully are different. Why will MPEG LA need to push their codec if they could profit from selling patent licenses to WebM users?

I suspect that the real motivation of the H.264 supporters is that the patent encumbered codec will allow content providers and proprietary software vendors to control who is allowed to produce video playback software (at least, they could make it impossible for free software to support the codec), and impose mandatory content protection. That will make the content industry giants closer to their ultimate goal of eliminating all the culture they do not control.

I don't like either.

Flekko sounds like Blekko (easy to get confused). And what the heck does Flekko mean anyway? Don't just use cute-sounding word, but meaningfully cute-sounding word.

Amusly... I know where you are coming from, but this sounds like a gross grammar throwup. I feel irritated just seeing the word because it is wrong in spelling (why isn't it amusely?), grammar (amuse doesn't go with ly), and sound (rhyme with must or muse?). It just feels wrong. Not just wrong, but three wrongs. If you must use this... use Amusely. At least it is less disgusting-looking.

I am sorry I don't like either names. Hope you don't mind the very direct feedback. If I must choose, I choose Flekko.
While this is firmly in the "holy crap" territory, I dread to imagine what the consumables costs are.

I can't wait until microfluidics people get hold of this. It'll be (ahem) huge.

A pixel is the smallest controllable dot on a screen. The spec shouldn't have changed the definition of this, but introduced a new unit instead. Personally, I'd have both!
On the rare occasions where I say "px" rather than some scalable unit, I really do mean pixel. For example, I might use px to specify the width of an element that needs to have exactly the same width as an img tag.
I really loce direct feedback, that's the reason why I posted here. Yep, I own that name too (amusely) and Flekko is confusing me with the same reason you've mentioned.
Thanks for respond!
Assuming GitHub Enterprise is setup like GitHub:FI was, no it won't...

However, that's something I'm very much interested in supporting, and I don't believe it would be hard to add. (GitHub:FI support is as simple as changing all instances of github.com to mycompany.com)

If you (or anyone else interested in BugHub on GH Enterprise) want, email me at randy dot luecke at [ME] dot com because I'd love to work with you to, hopefully, get it in the next release.
That's actually exactly how it was designed in the Developer Preview, and for just that reason. Every time you pulled up the Start screen from with an app, the app would slide to the left as a hint it was available there.

The problem was that the sliding animation just gave you a headache after a while, especially using the start screen from the desktop. So in the Consumer Preview it was replaced with a more subtle fade-ish animation, making it less apparent where the app went but protecting the user's long-term sanity.
I meant "AmusEly" actually. I don't know why I put it wrong here)

Please do share, which one of those people do you feel is incapable of making decisions because of mental illness/drugs ? Did you talk to one of them about invisible forces and aliens ? Don't you think that people doing this might realize it's not in their interest to put a logo on a schizophrenic person ?

Or are you just uncomfortable with what these people are doing and have no problem shitting on a option that was given to them. I'm sure if you send them job offers they will drop the wifi thing in a second - and it should be really easy to find them. Or are you going to shit over people doing this so they lose this opportunity, along with anyone in the future, because of the public backlash. God I hate internet people.
I personally can't stand names that end with "ly" for no good reason (assistly, embedly, ugh. If its an actual word, like "carefully", then fine) So that leaves Flekko, which is neither good nor bad IMO.

Some Encouraging Logo Design Quotes by Steve Jobs for Creative Designers
>>But, over the long term, it’s better to have a growing work force, not one that’s shrinking compared with the number of retirees.<<

Why is this true? It seems to be taken as granted that this is true. I don't think that having a growing workforce that is barely earning a living is such a good thing.

It just seems unsustainable to think that we can depend on a growing workforce indefinitely to support the growing number of retirees. Long term it will be better to figure out technological solutions to this problem, i.e. robotics.

Hopefully with a reduced workforce we can focus more on quality of life.

Edit: I guess the reason this quote bothers me so much is that increasing the population in a lot of countries would mean bringing new babies to a life of poverty and misery. Why not focus on fixing the quality of life thing first?

Edit2: This is a response to the comment:

>>A lot of people would be surprised to learn that the impoverished peoples in a many those countries are a lot happier we expect. All-in-all they aren't much less happy than we are.<<

I think you may be right. I was probably just projecting. Still, being below the poverty line brings a lot of problems. Tens of millions of people die just from hunger every year or from diseases that are simple to cure or prevent in the developed world. That is probably the kind of misery I'm talking about.
While some people are going to react negatively to the term, "ninja" because they feel it's played out or whatever, I'd like to say, "Bravo" for digging deep into your newly chosen name and imbuing it with meaning for your company. If this theme has gotten your team excited, then it's totally worth it. And if you think this theme will help attract the kind of people you want to attract, even better.
Many times, when dealing with fraud, the damage done by a false negative completely outweighs the damage done by a false positive. This is almost always the case for the company, in some cases it's also true for other users involved. Thus, companies are frequently OK with having a high false positive rate in order to get the false negative rate to be close to zero.

The company obviously realizes it has a large number of false positives, and it's probably decided that it's worth it.
I wonder if this technology will be used to add "watermarks" to objects, to guarantee authenticity, like print a logo on a clockface of your rolex

Recreational Maths - a talk in London on Wednesday
I submitted this 7 hours ago, but realised as I was drifting off to sleep that I most likely didn't submit at the right time for my intended audience to see it. So here it is again.

For anyone who might be interested, I am doing my regular talk on the Mathematics of Juggling in London on Wednesday afternoon at about 17:00. It's not guaranteed, but it's plausible that a small number of extras could be accommodated if you're interested in coming to see this.

For what it's worth, I give this talk about 80 to 90 times a year, and have spoken in New Zealand, the USA (New York, Boston, Oregon), Portugal, Belgium, Sweden, The Netherlands, Ireland, the UK, and more.

Let me know if you're interested and I'll check with the organisers to make sure you can come along.

On devices where 1px != 1 device pixel, images should be scaled by the same proportion as the px unit. So, if you set an img to 150px wide, and a div below it to 150px wide, they will be the same width, even if 150px == 300 pixels. I'd be happy to learn of any browsers where that is not the case.
It's obviously 30 million monthly pageviews (I said 1 million daily pageviews, I think you misread my text).

100 servers would assume media hosting for images and other files that go with a blog. That could all be kicked out to other services like Amazon, but the costs would obviously go up and I don't think it would be necessary.

At $500k +/- a year in infrastructure costs, I think Posterous could be wildly profitable. You could run a tight ship with five to ten people (throw in $500k to $1m in employee costs). If someone put a gun to your head, it could be maintained with a two or three person team.

I've tried to push Python for many projects at our shop. But it always get shot down by We don't want to write in 2.x series as its going to go away, and 3.x ecosystem isn't ready yet.

The more this continues, the more some technology is going to eat Python's lunch.

If Python wanted to break backwards compatibility they should have done so with some big major changes. That would have been justifiable. Right now no one sees a reason to break backwards compatibility to go to a no-so-ready ecosystem at the expense little gains. At the same time no wants to write 2.x either.

At least people planning to maintain their code base for years aren't going to write in a major version that's going to go away.

The corner actions are always the same though - it's not like there are random corner actions available at different times. The idea is to have a fairly small amount of system UI that's available everywhere, so that even if there's a bit of learning involved at the start, it doesn't amount to much amortized over all the times/places you can use it.
