Do you really thing there's not one Repubilcan on reddit?

Do you really think I got 10,000 LoseThos downloads and no users?

Atheists are a minority in the US, though, you don't see that on Digg or Reddit.

So, the biggest site, reddit, gets 3,000 comments at most, yet ther are 7,000,000,000 people in the world.

Right now? Not a whole lot being honest. We have plenty of plans and features in the pipeline but the initial plan is to fill out our currently minimal feature set with what you'd expect a decent board to have, then add some more that we think are missing and can improve on what previous boards have done.

We're doing lots of offline work to make sure we get a good calibre of user, candidates and advertisers alike. we're not going to just throw money at PPC campaign, we want to build a good brand by going out and getting engaged in the community (we do it already, after all).
I really liked the page and you got me hooked with the service.

But initially I missed the point on the search for the hidden images. I searched with the magnifier but I didn't clicked the button so I was there for an entire minute just moving the mouse (congrats on that :)). I think it could be expressed more clearly what the visitor is expected to do.

About the product. Just iPhone? I guess you missed an user there. Another suggestion: being a father of a 3 month baby I miss a service were I can register my baby growing. I take a lot of photos but there is nothing out there (that I know of) that let me easily aggregate those photos into a living album. I just realized Persona could be just that with slight changes. Think about it as a possibility

16,500 PSI was just what it was tested at, and it could apparently withstand significantly greater pressure than that. From the Deep Sea Challenge website:

"The hull, complete with its hatch and viewport, was tested twice in a pressure chamber at Pennsylvania State University to an equivalent full-ocean-depth pressure of 16,500 pounds per square inch (1,138 bars). It passed both tests. Twenty-two strain gauges attached to the sphere gave data that indicated the sphere could withstand up to 140 percent of the test pressure without buckling."

There's a big difference in constructive criticism and some of the more vitriolic comments that have been around more recently.

I agree with you that the system invites comments that tend disagree.

Critisims like your are a reason its so hard to talk about this subject.
I have a lot of ideas but to start, just the basic thing you are suggesting: 'pouring' 'tons' of money into poor countries.. this is just not the reality.

We won't be able to fix the problem if we can't see it. Most people are living in a false reality, a matrix reality created by the propaganda machine. The truth is that the first world exploits the second and third world and hogs the resources. These 'tons' of money are pittance. The US alone uses more oil than the next three or four countries combined. The second world barely even figures in.

Its very simple: the distribution of things is just quite unfair, deliberately so. Many countries are actively repressed. The World Bank provides loans as a mechanism of economic warfare or modern-day colonization. Again, a major problem is that many of the citizens of the first world aren't even aware of this.

So people in every country need accurate holistic information and to have an egalitarian perspective. The first part is not happening, as I mentioned. The second part is not the case either -- most everyone in the first world subscribe to a type of Social Darwinism which is just the latest rationale for brutal primitive classism.
There is vast scientific evidence that 'happiness' is positively correlated with 'wealth' (both in quotes to indicate that they're broad concepts, I'm not interested in discussing specific definitions). The scientific history is broadly that in the 1970's, it was thought there was little correlation (the 'Easterlin paradox'), in the 1980's and 1990's it was thought there was correlation up to some point of wealth (e.g., income of 15k USD) and after that there was little to none, but in the last decade (with better data and more thought into the subject) even that doesn't seem to hold any more. (yes marginal utility decreases but aside from that).

So, in general, the empirical evidence points to 'more money = more happiness'.

The literature on this spans decades, a 'popular' paper of the last few years that references much of the historical papers and as such can serve as a starting point is [Stevenson & Wolfers, 2008] (http://bpp.wharton.upenn.edu/betseys/papers/Happiness.pdf).

(a quote in the 'community' on this topic nowadays is (although I haven't been able to verify a source for it): "the average Togolese man would be hospitalised for depression in Denmark.").

I don't know about that. Some of the Java libraries that were written in C were long ago converted to Java and they run faster.

It's hard to say that the JVM is faster or slower than X because it usually comes down to the way in which the application is developed.

If C++ was ALWAYS faster then I wouldn't be using Java for our trading systems. Some of our competitors use C++ and some use Java. We have one of the fastest trading platforms in the world, the only firm to have faster than us are also using Java.

Instead of ad hominem attacks, why don't you come with some data to support your accusations? The Economist is one of the last publications with a rigorous policy of publishing original data sources, in this case the World Bank, hardly the obscure special interest group you make it out to be.

If you want to offer alternative interpretations of the data, or point out specific methodological flaws, or whatever, by all means do so - but now you're just saying 'meh I don't like this guy's ideas, he must be a shill, but I guess we'll never know because nobody can know these things anyway' - the most toxic nihilistic and intellectually dishonest 'reasoning' imaginable.
No wealth is not relative. If you have nothing you have nothing thats the baseline. I think what you mean is that it is hard to measure how healthy somebody is, thats why we use money to meausre wealth, with money you get choise and if you can choose you can take what makes you the happiest.

This line of reasoning is flawed but its the best weath got. If you we find out that choise make you unhappy then we have a problem and I don't know how to solve it.
seems to be very similar to apple's strategy on HyperCard - which apple probably deemed to be too powerful for rapidly writing applications and thus pulled it from the market. maybe this is a common strategy among large IT companies?

I've also noticed the ms sql server management studio to be fairly unintuitive (adding backups as drives, etc.) and I'm wondering whether the big players in IT might realize that future profits may not come from better software, but from the consulting/maintenance services that accompanies the software (following IBM's tracks).

EDIT: looking at the success of HyperCard/Access, that would probably be a great open source project. taking HyperCards approach to the web.

Pick a random article about a data centre, and see what it is about. Presuming nothing awful has happened at that data centre, it's almost certainly about some way the company has found to save money, and that usually means doing something innovative with cooling. And that is saving a hell of a lot of money. I'd be interested to see a break down of the energy consumption of a data centre; I imagine cooling is the biggest output (though I'm happy to be proved wrong). And it's probably easier to halve cooling output than it is to halve the number of servers running, as improving the efficiency of a data centre seems like a much more isolated task compared to improving the efficiency of potentially thousands of programs written by several hundred teams.
Thanks zarroba!

Excellent feedback, I'll make it a little more clear what visitor is expected to do. On another note though, you not finding the hidden images for at least a minute meant the game worked ;).

We're starting with iphone, but unsure still as to what other platforms we'll expand to. You know, the usual budget problems, hiring more people, etc. To clarify, your problem with a three month old baby is already solved with Persona. Persona focuses on things that are about you that make up who you are and defines your life. Photographs are stored in "slices" of your life which can be named "Growingup" or "proudtobeafather". You can name that part of your life anything you'd like. Within those slices, you would store the photos of your baby so you can visualize he/she growing up day by day.

Welcome to Persona. It's everything you are, in pictures. (sorry, had to throw in our tagline, it just seemed like the perfect time to do it :-)).

ZeroMQ Forked by its Creators
I don't understand your question? No, wealth isn't always relative (it's debatable but not so interesting if it's ever relative) - an 'average' farmer in the 1800's (in Europe) had a vastly worse lifestyle than an 'average' farmer today. Today, he is more wealthy in absolute terms.

If you and I can each grow 100kg of wheat and 2 pigs per year when we work solitary, but if you can grow 400 kg and I can grow 4 pigs if we specialize and trade wheat for pigs, then we are both objectively more wealthy in the second scenario.

Why would you want to avoid inflation? Money is only a measure for wealth at one point in time, for the rest it's just a tool to provide liquidity and efficiency to markets. What do you mean by 'scarcity being used as a yard stick for money creation'?

True, but don't you find the sketching out process taking whole fun out of the process? I mean, once you know what you are going to code (or write), doesn't your motivation to (mechanically) implement it go down a bit?

I am curious because it happens to me usually, and I like to discover and explore as I go along instead of doing careful initial planning.

PHP 5.4.0 Built-in Web Server DoS PoC
I am genuinely curious why the poverty calculation is done with respect to some dollar threshold ( earning below $1.25 is poor ??).

In some part of the world $1.25 (after converting to local currency) per day can buy generous meals 3 times a day and still be left with amount to pay for transport, clothing and housing. But in some part even $10 per day would make you poor.

Also, a person earning more than $1.25 now compared to last year doesn't mean he crossed the poverty barrier. The ever increasing inflation would have reduced him to a worse than poverty condition.

The calculation should be based on some quantity of food (amount of rice / starch he can buy with his earnings) etc.
One of the jobs posted says "we pay in kit, holidays and (a little) cash".

defining "evil" would be a good start, though we seem to have failed to do it for the last ten thousand years :)

More seriously: there are plenty of "ethical certification" thingies, and lots of finance entities who only work with "ethical" products.

This things just don't seem to have trickled down from (arguably) major evils businesses (child exploitation, war profits, environmental disruption etc) to lesser ones (predatory pricing, patent trolling, exclusive dealing etc).

Possibly a matter of time, but a long one IMVHO.

To every good thing there is a bad effect. The effect of helping third nations to get in debt is hate. This hate accumulates and the result will be similar to the bubble exodus. This the modus operandi of capitalism - whoever holds the bag last will get in trouble.

There might be some few good cases but the greater part of history just serves my pessimistic view. All the empires claimed to help less developed nations to become "better". Only for some strange reason the latter didn't want this help until persuaded with military force.

Helpful Tips On How To Save your Marriage

Are you suggesting that the same people need to start and finish? Was Steve Jobs a starter and a finisher? If so do you really believe he could have built the hardware and finished the technical aspects of the project? Or is he a clever starter who found a good finisher - Steve Wozniak? Do you think Woz is both starter and finisher? Based on what I've read in iWoz and Apple Confidential, I think they had two very distinct personalities -- which could be summarized as "Starter" and "Finisher", and were co-dependent. Same thing for Bill Gates & Paul Allen. I would say there are some cross cutting concerns here: (starter vs finisher) vs (technical vs business minded).

In both scenarios you see the same pattern: once things get off the ground, the co-dependency relaxes because the starter can always hire finishers, but not vice versa. Look at who you hear more about: Jobs or Woz? Gates or Allen? There's definitely a difference in their levels of success, and definitely in their personalities. (Not saying it's the only factors, but certainly important.)

Yes there is. When you have a new repository without any commits, there is no HEAD, so you can't unstage by resetting.

mkdir try
cd try
git init
touch file
git add file
git status

Still, the git status command shows you what you need to do to unstage.
To follow up on this and what Steve's mentioned elsehwere, the locaation stuff is a prime example of the kind of thing we have in mind for future developments where we feel other sites lack.

Right now though this is just a minimal feature set. At midnight last night when I looked at 'add filtering to the search options' on my todo list I decided that with only a handful of jobs on launch day, this can wait. I guarantee though there will be better search filtering by the time the number of jobs has grown enough to warrant that.
IMHO, you're trying too hard to fix the things which aren't broken in the first place. Covering the main flaws in PHP would be sufficient, e.g.

str = 'foo'.replace('#', '').substr(1).as_array();
int = 5.something();

would translate to

$str = 'foo';
$str = str_replace('#', '', $str);
$str = substr($str, 1);
$str = (array) $str;

$int = 5;
$int = something($int);

This would allow us to do things that aren't native to PHP but still have something much easier. Having strings, integers and other types used as objects (with a solid proxy syntax to the native functions) would be the first (and best) step forward.

Class definitions as well:

Foo {
// constants
BAR = 'fubar',
BAR2 = 'foo';

// properties
protected _bar, _fubar;

// public properties / methods
public
bar() {
return ._bar;
},
fubar() {
return ._bar + ._fubar;
}
}

A license is just that, a license to use the code. The copyright holder of a piece of code (or really any other copyrighted data) may license it to whomever they want, however they want. The GPL is just a blanket license giving permission to everyone provided they follow the restrictions put forth by the GPL.

If you are the sole copyright holder (because you are the only person who worked on a project, or because all others assigned their rights to you) then you are allowed to provide any additional licenses besides the GPL. A lot of open source projects (see Qt, MySQL and a bunch of others) work this way, only accepting patches from the community if the patches come with a copyright assignment. This allows them to charge for closed source use of the library while at the same time allowing the open source community to benefit.
