I think there's a bit of a false dichotomy between sharing what you're doing and keeping it secret. There are many different levels of openness and secrecy. People often err on the side of being too careful by not even talking about the problem space they're passionate about with others. People also err on the side of telling people about ideas they haven't even got around to exploring. Derek Sivers wrote a nice post about erring on the side of being too open, yet he is very talkative.

I'm not very good at picking my battles when it comes to sharing my technical interests but I'm getting better as I get experience.

That was one of my awkward debugging moments. We had a path issue for a Japanese clients and I was completely unaware of this specificity. The path issue was somewhere else but understanding that having ¥ instead of \ was a feature and not a bug took me a while.
I'm excited about the digitzation project, but the search experience is so poor that it's difficult and cumbersome to locate any actually digitized work. Some of the digitized documents appear to be broken - like this one http://new.alberteinstein.info/vufind1/Record/EAR000016939. Those that you do find are virtually impossible to read, because they aren't actually transcriptions, they're relatively low-res image scans of his manuscripts. http://new.alberteinstein.info/vufind1/Digital/EAR000000025#... - then there's access wall pdfs embedded in some of the DB entries https://sec2.einstein.caltech.edu/CookieAuth.dll?GetLogon?cu...
What a mess. I can only hope they make it much better in future revs.
Weirdly, Amazon and Netflix fill different niches for me. Amazon's player is flash so it works for me in linux, so I use that when I'm on my computer. However Netflix has an application for my (non-Fire) android device, so I use that there.

I really wish they would start pushing on each other harder, so I could use only one for both...

Probably more often they are just choosing not to replace their aging computers. Any PC within the last 5 years is good enough for most people. What's the incentive to spend $500 on a new PC? As long as the old PC continues to work I don't think they're going to be throwing it in the garbage to use the iPad exclusively but it will definitely collect dust and eventually when it dies it probably won't be replaced.
Not that I'm aware of, unfortunately. I haven't followed things much over the past 2-3 years, though.

I suspect there are two forces at play:

1. Building a pure capability-based operating system has minimal payoff. While personally I believe the result will be an amazingly reliable, high performance, secure system, the fact is the operating systems we have today are apparently "good enough" that nobody is interested in funding further work in this area (AFAIK Shapiro and others did form a venture in this regard; what came of it I don't know). Keep in mind that much existing software will have to be re-engineered, and a good part of the OS utilities redesigned since if you're going the pure capability route the significance of files becomes pretty much purely a user thing.

2. At a higher level, in my opinion (as an amateur capability-based systems theorist) the benefits of distributed capability-based systems have already been realised as the shape of the evolving web, albeit on much cruder foundations than those designed as part of the literature. Cookies + URLs are pretty much capabilities, and web services (including web sites!) are effectively distributed objects. Javascript + HTML have fulfilled the dream of being able to ship and run data, code and user interfaces remotely, which is the foundation for an unplanned human + computer usable distributed ecosystem.

Javascript, while not the cleanest language, is a solid language for a capability-based system (in terms of capability rules: everything is an object, objects can only be accessed via references [capabilities], objects references can only be acquired by (a) creating the object or (b) by receiving a capability), i.e. capabilities cannot be forged. If you're interested in what an even more pure approach, designed by people who really know what they're talking about, would look like then take a look at http://www.erights.org and http://www.waterken.com .

In this sense, the first true modern capability-based operating system will probably be the first true web operating system.

I think it's pretty cool, and a confirmation of the ideas in Gnosis, KeyKOS, EROS, Coyotos, CapROS, E, etc. that the natural evolution of the largest distributed system on the planet (the Internet) effectively took the form of a distributed capability-based system.
Is it just me or does 0.4% of the tax base on Nasa seem really reasonable. If I had had to guess, I would have put it way lower.

The iPad probably has the most impressive hands-on-upsell of any device I've seen since the iPod. Apple has sold about 60 million iPads so it might not be unreasonable to think another 200-300 million people have had some hands-on experience with an iPad by now. This is exactly how the iPod built its momentum.

Not sure about that. I know lots of people under 40 years old who can't touch type. Hunting & pecking on a multi-touch keyboard is no worse than a physical keyboard. Probably better thanks to predictive typing and universal spell-check.
The pressure at that depth is immense. 36,000 feet deep == 16,000 psi (pounds per square inch.) That's over 1000 atmospheres.

Lets say a human can cope with 10 atmospheres. (I have no idea what a human can cope with.) That still leaves 990, plus extra for safety margin.

I agree with commentators here. This, and other deep sea stuff, is awesome. I'm fascinated that it's being done by private companies, and the competition between Cameron and Branson just adds to the awesomeness. (Branson appears to be losing badly.)
I think that's a good point, but the stakes are quite a bit higher with your genome, since it can reveal a bunch of information about medical costs you're likely to incur, and how much shorter or longer than average you'll live.

Sure, I understand that it can happen... but at the end of the day who is the one still standing. Microsoft gets fined, the investors who stuck through the bankruptcy get paid... but the competitor is DEAD.

Is it more expensive then buying a company... most likely, but it stops the entire market space moving forward. Microsoft knew they were violating anti-trust with the browser but they still did it. In doing so they delayed any move towards the "Networked computer" model that everyone was saying was the future.

To protect the crown jewels (windows + office) I am pretty sure Microsoft will sacrifice it all to maintain that monopoly. Like Nero in Rome, they will let it burn.
Sensationalism aside, how many 13 year olds need to install an OS from scratch.

People love doing these 'I gave x Microsoft product to my great-grandfather's second cousin twice removed' and then spell out gloom and doom for M$ yet in attempting to be so realistic they become unrealistic.

A not-so-tech-savvy friend of mine got an iPhone 4S and aside from the amusing mistakes in messages when I saw her next she exclaimed she was having a difficult time figuring everything out. Now, she's quite smart — if there any other Australians on here from Queensland, she got an OP 1 and is studying engineering.

How many people press F1 and seek help? How many people read manuals at all for anything new they get? Windows has continuously changed and somehow the world hasn't ended yet. People would go out and buy Macs at the site of Windows8? Haha. Yes, those people with no experience outside of Windows would suddenly want to go get a Mac and there would be such a minimal learning curve for them that would be less than Win8.

In the rush to criticise Win8 people have forgotten that the new Metro interface is already widely being used, at least in some form, on Windows 7 Phones, iPhone, Android, etc — grid display of apps, app store, the way Metro apps are switched, gestures, etc. All Windows users do not live in a complete bubble though I see how that's a convenient imaginary land to make neomodern comments on the internet. :P

You could try using the classic desktop because.. I don't know how else to say this, it's the classic desktop. Hell, you can completely ignore the main Metro side of things. ;) When I tried the Consumer Preview I was able to just do that. At work one of the guys is only using Windows8 and does so in that fashion and he uses Dreamweaver, Fireworks and other misc. apps like FileZilla and whatnot.

I agree if the argument is "we should transfer money in the budget from X to Y." But if the argument is, "we should add money to the budget to fund NASA," it's a foul to make that argument by saying, "Marginal dollars for NASA are more useful than the least useful marginal dollars we spend (military funding)."

Looking at the OP, it seems like he was making the former argument, which I buy, so good on him.
Polished Wifi Sync App for iPad (Not Dropbox, SugarSync, Acrosync, ... )
Why is there no polished app on the iPad that allows syncing of files from your Mac WITHOUT the need for cloud?<p>I just bought an iPad and I would like to transfer 10gb of movies (some avi's, some from the internet) that I would like to put on my ipad. iTunes doesn't let me do that because you can't add avi files.<p>All I want is dropbox without syncing to the cloud (I don't need my avi files to be in the cloud. Moreover, 10gb+ will definitely go over my quota).<p>Any recommendations?
In the 3 or so years I've used RefControl, I've added 5 exceptions. Sourceforge used to break (but not any more). NYT relies on the referrer to determine whether you're allowed through the paywall. Some image hosts use the referrer to detect hotlinking (and subsequently block the image). I regularly use a webshop that uses a payment processor that relies on the referrer to do something (I'm not sure what).

So it's fairly rare, but it happens, on occasion.

Very interesting. The reason we didn't want to use GWT was precisely because of the difficulty of debugging. This is a big step in the right direction.

The talk emphasizes debugging js as output of another language. But did I understand correctly that it can be used to debug js programs directly? Makes sense and would be awesome.

Great job - again.

Conclusion from the article:

"Many password management apps offered on the market do not provide adequate level of security. We strongly encourage users not to rely on their protections but rather use iOS or BlackBerry security features.

For Apple users: set up a passcode, and a (complex!) backup password. Do not plug the unlocked device to computers you do not trust to prevent creation of pairing. If you can't encrypt backup for some reason, restrict access to it as much as possible."

Squesseract or STesseract also have potential for disambiguation and googleabilty, without being too forgettably eccentric.
There are some in the comments on the article.
Thinking about this for a long time:
"And that's what I'm worried about: "No user serviceable parts inside". I'm concerned the very reason tablets will take over the PC market will also mean that tomorrow's kids' experience is very different from, and I would argue poorer than, my experience when I got my first computer, a Commodore VIC 20."

And found the answer in automobiles. They are as essential to us as communication devices will be to everyone tomorrow. And yet only a few only know at least the fundamentals of an engine.

It's a problem society has to tacle by embracing STEM but it's not as problematic as it seems IMHO.

Neither of your reasons are very compelling to me. People should be vilified for believing bad things. Justified cynicism is just realism. Note I'm not saying that the OP's comment proved either of these is the case in this situation. I just don't have the evidence to make that claim, and I'm more inclined to see it as a blend. But he seems to believe he does, and provided us with his reasons. You have only given your emotional reaction, based on beliefs whose rational basis we have no way of knowing.

If you don't like the comment, it's a lot more productive to respond to its substance (why do you disagree?) than to share how it makes you feel.

Yes, if you have regular hand-written JS, and let's say you run UglifyJS, YUI Minifier, or Closure Compiler, to generate compact, optimized JS, with source maps, the debugger will show the original JS source.

The demo I showed also is using SuperDevMode for GWT, which dramatically speeds up the compile. Notice, I compile a project (the Mail sample) of several hundred Java source files in less than 2 seconds.

Is this really true? Getting to the moon cost 4% of the federal budget at peak, and from the graphs it looks like about 2% of the budget on average, for 13 years [1]. I'm fairly certain that Columbus' voyages cost nowhere near a percentage point of the economic output of all of Europe for a decade. But maybe I'm wrong. Could you provide a citation?

Also, as I understand it we're fairly certain of the economic value of other planets given our current technology (not much). So that aspect of Columbus' voyage does not apply today.

All good points. I would say that lists like that are also abuse; the hyphens there ought to be · or something similar. But it certainly appears in the wild. (Similarly, in formal contexts, the negative sign is − and not -, but very few people care.)

The last usage is also possible in English. A construction like “face-huggers and -eaters” is rare but not outlandish.
Great comparison. If you look at things like Garageband on the iPad, you can certainly make music with the touchscreen only. But any musician would probably still be more productive when using the real instrument as the input device. Same with office work: yes, you can write on the virtual keyboard, but can still attach a physical one if you want
