Building successful games for iOS is such a crapshoot thanks to app store distribution mechanisms. The most successful games are the ones best ranked. Aside from having a good product, I bet a lot of publishers don't even know how or why they're doing well. But it ends up looking like 1% of the population controlling 99% of the wealth.

Or maybe that's just the nature of video games in general.

One of the common criticisms leveled at Apache Subversion is that, as a non-distributed version control system, Subversion is outdated – the future belongs to distributed version control systems like GIT.http://codersky.com/web-application-development-0312
Due to its age, there is a massive codebase in TeX/LaTeX. There is literally a package for everything. It would be a massive undertaking to replace the TeX system by something that isn't downwards compatible. And since the vast majority of LaTeX users don't get to see much of the underlying mess the pressure to do so is rather small.

It's about context. I trust my bank for banking. I would trust the DVLA to assert my identity where a directed assertion is required, and where I agree to it. I don't trust Google at all because an ad company has no business looking at my email, let alone asserting my identity to third parties.

So technically I don't trust any third party. I trust some of them in varying degrees based on what I'm trying to do.

I don't quite understand this. Form the article it looks like the trojan escapes the word document to execution realm through your typical vulnerability. Fair enough. But so far it looks like it only has rights corresponding to the user.

So as far as i understand it, this needs a privilege escalation vulnerability to 'take complete control' and 'create new accounts'.

I played around with Lout for a good while during my brief fling with alternative typesetters; this included tracking down some of the (quite scarce at the time and still not easy to find) troff macro documentation.

It's cute and I liked that the language was generally sane but ultimately the typesetting quality was noticeably inferior to TeX even for block text; for setting mathematics Lout manages to make almost every single decision subtly wrong. Lout text quality is about comparable to troff in this way. If I'd never seen TeX it would look probably fine, or at least acceptable, but I can't stand to look at it today.

IANAL, but the "but everyone is doing it" defense may have value if you can prove that the party sueing you knows of, but does not prosecute, other cases, but it will not automatically get you of the hook.

On the other hand, law is there for the people, not the other way around. So, if you can argue that _the_people_ will not want to see these things punished, you may see the law changed. However, I do not see that happening soon. At the least there will have to be some provisions disallowing large scale copying. For example, I doubt that the National Geographic or Playboy magazine would be happy if it became legal to republish, as a hobby, their photo series.

Fake Chicken Worth Eating
I'm more disappointed this was on the front page of HN. This really looks like a PR release from the company rather than a proper editorial.

"Over the last few days we've seen Hotmail ads running on Boing Boing and Jezebel, two blogs that are hip for different reasons."

Running ads on blogs is not the same as getting endorsed by said blogs.

"Windows 8 surprised and excited the tech blogger world, something a Windows browser hasn't done since Windows 95."

I normally don't like to nit, but Win8 isn't a browser. What kind of reporting is this? I would excuse it except she spent the previous paragraph talking about IE9.

"The company has some other exciting things going on inside its labs."

Such as? So.cl? Docs.com? It would be nice for this 'journalist' piece to have some commentary to explain this position.

"Appl[sic] still produces insane-popular gadgets, but no longer wows reviewers like it once did"

I also don't like to nit on spelling mistakes, but this one just irks me. I make spelling and grammar mistakes a lot of time. I really do. But I also don't write articles for a living or pretend to be a journalist.
I kind of followed the post up until they started talking about Windows 8. "Windows 8 surprised and excited the tech blogger world, something a Windows browser hasn't done since Windows 95."

Do we live on the same planet? The feeling I got right after the consumer beta was that it was generally hated. And wasn't Win7 quite acclaimed?
Lout is around since the early 1990s. The fact that it didn't take off probably indicates that it's no viable alternative.

Do they really still require users to explicitly mark paragraphs?
Swedish Security Firm Shows How its Easy To Sidestep Passcode of iPhone [video]
Romanians are a magnificent, proud nation. Disclaimer: I married one :)

To a large degree, the bad image comes from a small sub-populace that rejects the western life style, western values and produces a lot of what western laws see as criminality, all over Europe. So yes, typical ethnocentric rubbish.

Most Romanians themselves are deeply unhappy about this image. Despite the general air of oppression/depression in the country, Romanians are very nationalistic and hardworking, and care about their country's image abroad very much. (hence this campaign)

I realize this will likely get downvoted on PC basis, but your honest question deserved an honest answer.
It would be if they weren't working with the IETF to have their additions become HTTP 2.0.

There's no difference between Google extending SSL, implementing that in their browser and servers and then submitting it to the IETF and Microsoft adding additional features to SPDY and submitting those too for consideration.

Only when their changes get turned down, but then still appear in IE in such a way that it only supports the changed SPDY but not the original any more, only then I would have to agree with you.

At the moment it doesn't look like that is the case though.
> The problem with Romanians (imo) is low self esteem and negative self image

Hmm interesting. I always thought them to be smart and persistent, rather than having "low self esteem". Romanian programmers are one of the best out there. But they also create some of the worst viruses as well. Maybe years of being bullied and managed by everyone creates a distrust of any laws or authority. But I still don't see the negative self image thing though...

I don't see why pagination has to go away any time soon? I can't stand Facebook auto loading more content, I end up dragging too far when it has auto loaded and I have not noticed, I spend more time looking at the scroll bar than the content!

I think the analogy of the forum posts are bad as well where people don't read the previous 4 pages, I think the issue more with forums is that there is a large thread to follow and it generally has to be followed from the beginning. You have generally landed on page 20 of a forum post because it has an answer to a query you put into a search engine. You don't land on page 20 from the forum itself!

In this I am a firm believer that if it ain't broke, don't try to fix it. Why should I as a developer over think about maintaining page position when clicking the back button or showing different paginated content to search engines for indexing? I don't feel like I am putting a lot on the user and I always know where I am with paginated content.
That is my impression as well. They are smart but distrust authority and consider laws "optional". If there is a new botnet or some horrible virus going around, chances are Romanians had something to do with it.
There is something clearly wrong in that sentence. Windows 8 and Windows 95 aren't exactly "browsers". Which makes you wonder if the one who wrote the article did an innocent mistake or really doesn't know what she's talking about.

Facebook seems to have found a way to do this the right way in their "profile timelines":

* The right side contains a scrollbar annotated with years and months, so you can efficiently navigate to posts from a particular period.

* You can deep link to a specific months: https://www.facebook.com/<profile>/timeline/2008/11

* The center line visualizes that the feed continues and that the user can keep scrolling (until they reach their birth)

* Displays a loading bar while new posts are fetched

* No footer and a static header.

Two problems:

* Forward/backward buttons doesn't work unfortunately.

* Webspiders does not make sense for such a closed system, so I'm not sure how they would be able to index such a site.

I would really love if other sites would adapt to this scheme of numbering pages by their year and month. Try navigating through which commits where introduced a year ago in a Github repository: https://github.com/mirrors/linux-2.6/commits/master - it ends in a binary search through page numbers! (You could use the CLI, but that is not the point here. Say you need to link to a particular line in an old commit)
One thing I'll say about Romanians is that I noticed they distrust each other, or they are just not friendly towards each other. For example I've noticed how the immigrant community acts and while other communities opt to stay together, mingle and be friendly with each others, Romanians abroad don't give a hoot about other Romanians, they are willing to integrate into the local culture as fast as possible and forget about other Romanians.

Set up in the UK. Software patent laws are far from perfect but none of bullshit you see in the US.
I think part of the pride thing is that they get embarrassed if one of theirs is acting stupid. So that probably accounts for "Romanians are stupid" phrases in Romanian language.

> Romanians are very nationalistic ...

Interestingly I hang out with the immigrants and they are not very nationalistic. As most are trying to escape and forget about their old country. But my perception is strongly biased according to a particular (rather small) sample of the ones I met.

File Tax Returns 2011-12: Do Not Miss The Tax Filing Deadline To Avoid Penalty
Sunglasses 2012
Well ideally the patent holder would simply license his patent to you and cover his costs/profit on his invention. But I agree the system is ridiculous and arbitrary (20 years in the IT is probably 100 years in some other fields :)).

I think the best way to deal with patents is to make a 4 year patent free period, in which you can file for new patents, but you can't sue anyone for infringement, and any work within those 4 years can't be affected by existing patents after the period expires. AFAIK this was already done by the US government in the aviation because they didn't want to pay Wright brothers, and the aviation industry grew, but I read this a long time I don't remember the details. But essentially you can measure the R&D investments in the industry and provide a empirical argument on how much R&D investment was lost (if any, I think the effect would be opposite, but it's a speculation) and compare with how much the industry has grown, then if you come to conclusion that patents are necessary measure the average R&D investment cost, profit, return periods, and compile that data in to a optimal time period which would allow the average successful/profitable patent to recoup the investment and earn a premium on standard rate of return.

Pair is interesting, especially for long distance relationships and the like. I predict:

2) Drama and heartache ensue when people find out they can't pair with their wife AND their mistress. This will create a niche market for a Pair client with multiple partners.

Its a good point actually, and i guess i just lost sight of things on the way. You are right, hanging around online is where i'm likely to find the most Kimo's
Two points.

First, Microsoft's status as a "cool" or, at least, "not eyeball-gougingly awful" company is inversely proportional to the power they wield over customers. MS was universally loathed when they were forcing people to use their browser and when it wasn't possible to do any meaningful consumer computing without paying the Windows tax. Now that we don't have to use MS software, MS are having to make software that people might actually use by choice. It's very hard for a dominant company to avoid becoming evil (cf. Google), but the flip-side is that once the dominance fades away the company has to start competing on merit again.

Second, MS in 1997 were competing with Netscape (cool startup), Sun (hippies) and IBM (erm...). Now they're competing, and often successfully, with Facebook (evil), Apple (enormous) and Google (evil and enormous). Today's 20-year-old college student was six years old during the "browser wars" anti-trust trial and isn't going to hold grudges for it. Today's Microsoft is sort of like late 90s IBM - dull, slightly confused and often irrelevant, but it's not exactly evil; XBox/Kinect is a genuinely good product, and Windows Phone is actually innovative rather than an iPhone clone; Bill Gates has morphed from a dystopian monopolist plutocrat into your genial wealthy uncle who spends his time trying to cure malaria and tackle poverty, more famous for giving his money away than for the means by which he amassed it.

None of this means that Microsoft is now the hippest tech company around, but it does explain how they might become so and why that wouldn't be a bad thing.

I tried the IRC channel about a year ago, but at that time i was so new to Node that i felt a little out of place. It seems you had to be at least intermediate level with node to really start chatting to people. You have to remember that i'm new to programming itself as well as Node. That said, i should repay the place a visit.

I was always worried about IRC etiquette. What i mean to say is - is it considered poor etiquette to just dive in and start asking for help?

Anyway - i think the larger problem for me hasnt been just getting stuck with Node - it's been more about knowing what is the next step to take in terms of the project since im new to development too. That's where having a mentor was very useful.

What are your thoughts?
