It's different because he did not take the sheet music. He heard the recording and decided to play his own version of it. Music may well be the worst example here, because it happens all the time.

When I was a kid, I used to have very vivid dreams or hallucinations whenever I suffered from high fever. Nearly always the same dream, very frightening - very real to me when I was having them. What was amazing is that the dream was weird: I remember me being small. Too small for my mind - it was as if I (as in the thinker/narrator) was where the mind was and the rest of the body was so small that I couldn't fit it. My mind was floating around my head, like an aura or a chakra. The feeling, some part of it I have lost by now, was truly disturbing. The surroundings where white - marble I think. And there were huge white pillar, 100 times my size - and they were falling. And they wouldn't break when they do - they would simply fall without noise, without rubble. I was always scared to death, always running. The dream was short and sometimes I would have my parents with me in my dream. Although they were my size, I don't feel any emotion or have a though about their size, just my own.

A couple of times, I would feel that my limbs are getting bigger and bigger, while my head (possibly my mind) remains the same. I was observing it just outside my head. Not too far away, possibly from my own eyes but outside my head as my mind though still at the same position, has disconnected itself from the head. I knew I was in bed, I was arguing my own self about the feeling being unrealistic. But I remember I couldn't reason out, I felt as if I will be crushed by my own body - slowly and painfully. There is no physical pain that I could feel, just an intense fear of that it will come.

I don't think that these were near death experiences - possibly just hallucinations. Unfortunately, they were so real to me that to this day, I am in a way, still scared of them. On the other hand, I want them back because they were so real and so scary - because at no living moment in the rest of my life have I felt a similar emotion, a real fear of that magnitude. I am sharing this because I cannot believe that a psychological/mental experience can be more real than what I had felt; that NDEs is more real - that they need afterlife.

Religious theory is amazingly complete with scope to explain everything, may be with inconsistencies but still everything. Existence of God would explain everything - because he is omnipotent. The power of religion on the other hand is reducing because after so many years of scientific experiments we are able to experimentally verify alternative theories that explain much of what was unexplained before. We don't need God for minuscule things, not anymore. As of NDE today, sure physiological and psychological theories cannot explain everything about NDEs, but I believe that they will in future.
And yet look at how many people use RVM. Just from user popularity alone it's clear that system package managers, no matter how much they're praised by sysadmin people, are not adequate. There's a clear need for package management that's:

1. cross-platform.

2. allows users access to the latest version of the software immediately.

3. allows installation of multiple versions. API/ABI stability is great but perfect backward compatibility is never possible. E.g. some apps actually rely on bugs in the platform and if you fix them they break; yeah yeah I know the software must be fixed but there may be a ton of reasons why that doesn't happen or at least not happen immediately and there's a clear need among users to be able to install multiple versions of a platform/library.

RPM/DEB theoretically support (2), but in practice distros never do that. Third party packagers that immediately provide the latest versions are most exception to the rule because they need to replicate their effort multiple times over multiple platforms thanks to the lack of support for (1). RPM/DEB don't even try to support (3).

Reducing the typical permission level, and the resulting warning fatigue, is our team's highest priority right now.

For example, the new permissions API can be used to request permissions at runtime, rather that install time:

http://code.google.com/chrome/extensions/permissions.html

And the new webRequest API can be used by many extensions in lieu of content scripts:

http://code.google.com/chrome/extensions/webRequest.html

There's a lot more we have planned though. Personally, I would like to eventually get to a world where many extensions - in particular the ones that novice users usually see - require no warnings at all. I think that can be done by putting access to most elevated privileges behind explicit user gestures (like clicking a button or invoking a keyboard shortcut).

In general, balancing utility and security in a browser extension system turns out to be a very, um, interesting design problem. But I think we have some good, new ideas coming. Now, just need to implement them.

Also, heat generated per server was rising until recently.

Since air conditioning cost is proportional to heat generated, it could have well made financial sense in the 80s and 90s to aggressively cool servers. Not nearly as much heat had to be displaced, and the cost of each server was higher.

From then, institutional inertia and infectious repititis (a brilliant term coined by Amory Lovins) kick in, and it just becomes The Way data centers are built.

Until a bunch of cool kids like Google and Facebook show up on the block, who don't care about the old rules quite so much, and they start to question the conventional wisdom.
Hi Chen,

It seems like an interesting product. Advertising here on HN is always tricky --- it's a balancing act between self-promotion and restraint. I voted your comment up in the hope that you'll stick around and tell us more about it. But perhaps more on the tech side, and less on the marketing.

Have you published any papers describing your approach? Or white papers with more meaty details? I work on the Apache Lucy project, and am very interested in things that work better than Lucene.

The author mentions Noam Chomsky, and I think he cuts to the point of the educational system: (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xq6lFOhLJ0c)

Points out that one goal is obedience; and even "stupidity" in the system is useful, in that if you're willing enough to go along with obviously stupid orders, you'll pass through to the next level. (In other words, it filters for obedience.)

Obviously, an educational system reflects the distribution of power in a society. This is particularly obvious when we observe an official enemy nation; we have no trouble seeing how they try indoctrinating students along the interests of those with power. Unfortunately, we're taught to have blindspots when it comes to our own societies.

There are of course better educational systems. Unlike the model of dumping knowledge into your empty head, they focus on encouraging the growth of your natural capacities and internal forces. I suspect that many "autodidacts" are just people who want to escape the problems of dominant education, with whatever resources they have.

Totally agree with you on 1). I found Clojure uses Java libraries even for the most basic stuff, and that forced you into unLisp like code. That is acceptable for Java folk, but when you want to stay closer to Lisp, that's a problem.

I still think that those user numbers in the title evokes a mental image of a certain type of load with a certain type of response time. I think if you got rid of the response time, it would be less linkbaity, because then it's clear that your focus is on the amount of storage it would take. It's not very important either way.

If I read your comment correctly, it sounds like you're comparing healthy young people who have undergone extensive physical training and testing to technicians of a highly variable age who have gone through no such selection and training? Or are you really suggesting that any old technician can run around in a desert carrying military equipment with zero training or physical aptitude, or vice versa?
Samsung is the right choice given Sammys good track record of being a foundry to Apple and also for its own SoCs with high end GPUs and uses latest technologies like Low-Power High-K Metal etc.
Nvidia Doesn't have a choice no matter how unhappy they are with tsmc. TSMC is the biggest fab that every fabless manufacturer uses. Every single fabless semi has no choice but TSMC. If tsmc can't deliver on the 22nm technology, no other fab will be able to. The 22nm is extremely difficult most skus fail. Hence intel wins.
Yet it did have that effect. Unless you're claiming the parent is lying? Or are you suggesting it's merely an unlikely event? The fact is people have all kinds of physical issues they might not even be aware of and you can't take that chance with people - not for legal reasons, not for ethical reasons. The best you can do is prepare in advance by training people in the situation to detect if they have any issues with the environment.

I'm glad you replied to the comment. Heat exhaustion (leading to heatstroke) is serious stuff.

It really happens - even to young people at their peak condition. In dry climates, with mildly hot weather around 90-93 F.

As if the goal or intention were to approach UNIX's philosophy. UNIX is practically by definition decoupled. Integrated Development Environments are by definition integrated.

I spent years hating Java and embracing vim, but as I tried to shape my environment more, I grew increasingly frustrated. Finally, I was forced by necessity to use Eclipse and Maven with Java, and the lightbulb turned on for me.

Any language that takes 30-40% less code to do something for you is taking away some freedom. They're making convention easy but can make escaping it to be hard, or may slow down because of more dynamic-ness, or some other tradeoff. And there are many good tradeoffs to be had when creating programming languages, of course.

The deal with Java is that it is the pedant of languages. Half-answers and hand-waving to how objects interact (i.e. duck-typing) aren't good enough for it. This makes libraries or APIs very, very easy to reason about, because if it doesn't access to that information then that means that the library or API is broken or intentionally hiding those details from you. But on the other hand, it enforces a kind of light, but still present, agreement between classes on their relationships to each other.

The point at which your thoughts on IDE come into this is that because Java has a very rigid structure, it can make sweeping code changes at massive scale. This is something that, with shallower insight into the language, or without insight into the flow of code through a method (i.e. checking for dead code or invalid assignments), and so on, would take a massive number of man-hours to duplicate, or make use of the exact same code the IDEs themselves have written for the purpose (i.e. emacs and vim are capable of delegating certain functions to eclipse). Decoupling it in the UNIX way doesn't really make a whole lot of sense when everything is very interrelated in nature.

As well as generate, but given that some people think that if code can be generated, it should be done at runtime by the language instead, I don't want to argue this too hard in this reply. They're not wrong but they sure aren't right.
I think a problem is that humane teachers are made to be "outliers". She correctly perceives these standardized tests as an attack against students and decent teachers. From bureaucracies like the ones you describe. If these bureaucracies were more efficient, I don't think that'd improve the situation; probably even strengthen their attacks.

> Once Go 1 launches, subsequent releases should be compatible with the Go 1

Which does not mean that they will be, despite Sun's effort to never formally deprecate (let alone remove) anything and the glacial pace of the language, there have been backwards compatibility issues in the past: reliance on implementation details or under-specified behavior which got changed, reliance on bona-fide bugs which just happened to do what a developer wanted in that case, etc...
There is an easy fix for this, that is also the recommended way to use bitmaps in Redis: split your bitmap among multiple keys.

For instance you want to set bit i, but you want k bits per every key, the you do:

keyname = "bitmap:"+(i/k)
keybit = i%k

k can be fairly large, like 128k bytes per key. It's still small but big enough for keys overhead to be negligible.

True, but in essence you're saying that you're amazed that everyone doesn't know everything. No one knows everything, and few people have encyclopedic knowledge of a niche topic like blogging. I'm amazed you didn't know that. ;-)

I think there's actually a surprisingly good analogy to music here: those "play X on the guitar" tutorials. The original artist plays the song, someone else hears it, figures out how to play it by ear, then offers to teach it (probably their own version/interpretation of the song) for free. Similarly, the OP saw a design, figured out how to code it up himself, and decided to share it with the world.

I don't understand the points about Scala here. Scala has pretty much the same strategy as C#.

In fact, the "big breakage" in Scala everyone loves to cite was the addition of better collections. Just like C# did in 2.0 and now finally drops the old non-generic ones with WinRT/Metro.

The reason it gets so much flack is that Java developers want _binary compatibility_, because that's what they are accustomed to and Scala gets often used by Java developers.
Java developers would target the same criticism towards C# if it would run on the JVM.
in scotland I worked in a hospital and would have to print out blood results on a daily basis for, on average, 20 patients. Some weeks it could easily be 60 patients.

To do this would take about 6 clicks and due to the slow system about 40 seconds I figured out. There would commonly be a queue in the morning to use this computer.

I made a simple script on a pen drive that allowed me to print my bloods for patients I had on a list of 'my patients'

i got a slap on the wrist :(
Maven.

* Cross-platform.

* Easy access to remote packages as soon as they're posted.

* Versions must specified, so builds are very repeatable. You bear the responsibility of updating your dependencies, but you don't get surprised if a version decides to break compatibility, either.

Also, very decentralized, and it's easy to create a directory locally to hold the dependencies within a project (specify a file:// repository relative to ${project.dir}), or on a per-system-user level (mvn install), or on a per-company/organizational unit basis (self-hosted repos are a cinch).

It's actually a fantastic package management system tailored to Java that works extremely well. Its main problem is that it's also fantastically verbose, and including more and more build plugins can grow exponentially more arcane the greater the number of plugins involved. However, with Go's standardized directory layout among other things (I admit, I haven't done much research into trying Go out), something akin to Maven may actually be a good fit.
