This article does a lousy job of explaining what the report actually says, setting up some straw men to knock down.

There's pretty good evidence that burnt and smoked meat (see especially bad barbecue and barbecue flavours) contribute to bowel cancers.

The authors have been clear about the limits of epidemiology. They were clear about what the results actually mean. (maybe one year less in 90 year life span).
This app needs far greater publicity. I am gonna give it a good try. I would love to see more Android updates. Thanks.
correlation != causation

From the article:
as we move from the bottom quintile of meat-eaters (those who are effectively vegetarians) to the top quintile of meat-eaters we see an increase in virtually every accepted unhealthy behavior — smoking goes up, drinking goes up, sedentary behavior (or lack of physical activity) goes up — and we also see an increase in markers for unhealthy behaviors — BMI goes up, blood pressure, etc. A whole host of effects confound the interpretation of the association.

I don't understand that page at all. It doesn't explain why the app was rejected or why they can't use the native iOS pushing. In fact, I'm quite unsure of what is unique about their use-case for push notifications that is different than... any other similar task in iOS.
So that theory would imply that if we compare the Middle East with Japan before 1900 when oil became an important resource we should expect ... what?
There is no obvious causal mechanism, we always need a study. It's very easy to be biased (Just read a few of these articles for examples http://wiki.lesswrong.com/wiki/Sequences). Books like "wheat belly" and "Why we get fat?" make an alternative hypothesis to the commonly accepted "Saturated fat is bad"
How do they deserve credit? Their security procedures are demonstrably flawed. And, of course, the most obvious relevant point: terrorists can do many things other than hijack planes, many of which are outside the TSA's jurisdiction.

We don't have the equivalent of the TSA here in Australia and I don't feel any less safe for it.
I think most of you guys missed the point. Writing tests is very important WHILE writing code, to write it better.
We MUST write tests not only to catch regressions, to be sure that certain invariants will be manteined. But we write tests to check if we are writing good code.
I need to write a class to do some stuff. The test is the first user of this class. If I cannot write the test very fast, and I see that I'm spending a lot of time doing it, this means that my class is poorly designed, is not flexible, is not very reusable. Maybe I'm doing something wrong with my app design. If I'm writing good code, reusable and clean code, testing is easy and fast.
Testing help me to check immediately what's going wrong with the code, not only in term of bugs.

Is the general premiss that if Yahoo stays the course they'll die a slow death and this measure extends their runway even more? Last time I checked, Yahoo still made a billion dollars last year. They aren't anywhere near dead.

I don't understanding why they should abdicate their responsibility and right to what's probably going to be 5-10 billion in post ipo facebook stock.

They are making changes to fix the long-term view and still are doing interesting R&D things. Hopefully, they find more interesting ways to make money from business operations. Is the argument that if your long-term position isn't right, they can buy the equivalent or more of goodwill by cutting Facebook a pass? Would that make you leave where you work to join Yahoo? Would it be 5+ billion worth of culture building? If so, would that REALLY mean they were back on the right track, or bring them the people that could help them do so?

Going into the New Year, here are the top trends to watch for in workflow management and manufacturing.
Well, today I think of Occam's Razor in the spirit in which it was originally offered, according to one translation, "One should not needlessly multiply entities."

Not only is it a great answer to the original question ("How many angels can dance on the head of a pin") but it is a great engineering principle as well.

So I agree with the GP who says that use of two competing variables which differ only by a factor of two is redundant and runs up against this principle.

It's hard because we elect one representative and two senators to represent us on every issue. The highest-controversy issues get the spotlight, while other very important issues are ignored.

Well I haven't dropped out of college yet. I need a cofounder first. And so far you are right... I haven't gotten anywhere. But that won't stop me from trying to prove your statement wrong.
Doesn't work. People would just create dummy accounts with 2GB folders, share them with themselves, and have infinite storage.

If they offered a 100GB plan for $20 / month, it would destroy their $125 / year / person plan since I would imagine that in almost all cases that's a much cheaper arrangement for teams.

That's why the current solution is such a disaster. The alternatives are either too easily gamed or they rape Dropbox's revenue.
"no compromises, at any cost" is black and white. The operative part is "at any cost". rms has been brilliant at what he has achieved, with the problem being that he believes he's right and brilliant at anything he does. That's a huge leap in logic right there - you just have to visit his blog to see what I mean.

While there is wisdom in advising one to be single minded in one's pursuits, there is also wisdom in being open to the possibility of being wrong in that single mindedness. I believe rms is right to pursue the principles behind the FSF - it has brought much good. However, I think he is wrong to believe that FSF applies to everything.

I must not have gotten that far in the article. But I seriously find that hard to believe. I recognize that eating a diet rich in saturated fat and very low in other calories would facilitate weight loss, but that saturated fat increasing the risk of heart disease and the like has not been demonstrated outside of studies that incorrectly assumed causation, and that such a diet is likely healthful goes so far against my intuition and observation of almost everyone I've ever interacted with (including many people whose lifestyle decisions were otherwise relatively health-promoting) that I'll need to see evidence to the contrary in order to replace this hypothesis as my dominant theory. And my intuition has almost never proven wrong. XD
That doesn't really solve the security concerns as their servers would still need to be authorized to read all of your email on your behalf.

Most interesting answer, in my opinion:

"Mr. Ferdowsi: The problem that we're trying to solve is a problem that only an independent company can solve. We want to let you use a Mac, or Windows PC, or iPad, or Android, without having to think about any of the technical details. It isn't a problem any of those larger companies is going to be as inclined to solve in the same way we are."
A solution would be to make sure that representatives who have initiatives most people really disagree with (as opposed to simply voting for them) don't get another term. Lamar Smith would be a good example. Takes a bit of coordination, but it'd probably be effective enough.
Supposedly it's at least partially true (as in featuring real people really saying these things) but my source for this is this blogger that says so, so...

If Greece can sufficiently exploit its resource base with just 60% of its population, yes, there are far more Greeks than they need, and the rest are being ill-treated because their presence is seen as a burden rather than an asset. And wasn't Somalia officially in famine just a month ago?

On reflection, I shouldn't have said "no ethical way to fix". A fundamentally different civilization, freed from our punitive "if anyone will not work, neither shall they eat" attitude, needn't make people suffer for being regarded as superfluous by the economy. And defense against "why should we feed you?" is largely why societies lacking trusted safety nets do overbreed whatever resource base is available, including foreign donations.
At one point in time, software companies sent updates on magnetic tape
through the postal mail. One of the most clever hacks I've read about
was when a group doing penetration testing mailed a fake (back doored)
update tape to the target.

When it comes to the efficiency of distribution, it's best to think of
it in terms of the constraints and requirements.

Without a way to duplicate and distribute their products to customers,
software companies could not exist, so the capacity to duplicate and the
ability to distribute are both requirements.

Those very same duplication and distribution methods used by the company
can also be used by others to further (re)distribute additional copies.

The difference is, the software companies are operating under the
constraint of needing to make a living by selling copies of their
products, so there's really no way to make a fair comparison on the
efficiency of the methods used by the companies versus those people
making additional copies. You're essentially comparing farmers to chefs;
one produces food, while the other prepares the food.

As a fellow Atlanta college student, I would suggest you perhaps play around with Processing by yourself in your spare time and see how much you can do on your own.

Do you sincerely think that everything you (or anyone) write on sites like this is worth saving for later? I don't think so. 99.99% of comments are inane and worth 0 (including mine).

What do you do with those texts? Reading them back months later and say "oh, what a sharp mind I have"? And what about the context (other's messages you answer to or that answer yours)? Do you also save it? Are also as worthly as yours?

I'm really surprised somebody does this.

It's unfortunate that Austin, such a creative and progressive city, is surrounded by the rest of Texas.
True, I don't doubt it is. I suppose all I'm saying is that I hope that if it ever happens to me I'll get over it quickly and move on happily with my $8M ;) I've learned a lot from Burns' "Feeling Good" and the nature of anger and pointlessness of worrying about unfairness in the world, and this just seems like another instance of something you can't control, probably can't influence (because you only recognize what's going on when it's too late), and consequently something you just need to accept. (I'm not saying don't anticipate it and try your best not to get screwed over, but if it happens, relax.)
> ...abdicate their responsibility...

There's no such responsibility. All they have to do is add up expected gain vs expected loss to see that it's not a good idea. And it's entirely possible they're going to walk away with no money in this case. Even if it turns out to be $10 billion it might still may end up a net loss.

However, your WM needs an update to be compatible with the newer version of libX, and that update wasn't installed, so the next time you go to login, bam, broken system.

Dude, go read the article. His first public statement was a tweet. 160 characters. His statements in the article make it sound like he talked to his buddies before tweeting, had a nuanced position much like the one you are describing (ie working at Yahoo is okay if you have a really really good reason), and then tweeted something a bit sensational to get the idea some news coverage.

Sure, he could have phrased the tweet better. But that's arguably not the point of Twitter :p

On an unrelated note, I can't make heads or tails of your third paragraph. First you argue that the "ethical way for a business to behave is to maximize shareholder value", then you claim that "we are looking at ethics here, not whether this is a good business move". Those two sentences come back to back and appear self-contradictory -- maximizing shareholder value is done by good business moves.

Did you mean that if the Yahoo board believed the action was ethical, then the employees shouldn't care if they think it's ethical? (Or that Yammer's CEO shouldn't care if those employees thought it was ethical?) (Or perhaps that Yahoo employees who stay are better hires, since they won't get in the way of business ethics?)

As you can see I am a bit befuddled by your paragraph three.

As to the question of (good arguers) <> (people with similar ethics) you bring up at the end, I can not say. Personally, the most productive teams I have been on have had relatively heterogeneous beliefs and ethics. Perhaps your experience differs.
