That was my experience as well when I tried it 10 years ago.

I started with Uberman, but had to shift to a schedule with 4 hours of core sleep towards the end of the second week, as I was getting severely sleep deprived and unable to function. I'd gone close to four days without sleep a few years prior, and the feeling was pretty much the same.

My interest was sparked as I've always had trouble with my circadian cycle, and my free running sleep eventually evolved to a polyphasic rythm to keep up with work, study and social life. I eventually had to give that up, as I ended up having extremely vivid dreams that were hard to discern from reality.

Getting a good nights sleep and possibly an afternoon nap really is the key.

> I do have one question, why does the author use BOLD text in the article in such a haphazard manner?

You could post a comment on the blog and ask. I'd have answered.

I bold the text for the key points that I want people to take away. I suspect that most people skim articles longer than a few paragraphs anyway, so I want to help them to the key points.

Some of the comments I'm seeing about the article only reinforce my conclusion that many readers never read beyond the headline or first paragraph.

Yup. Upfront cost is of negligible importance. Reliability and support have far greater financial impact.

Yeah Zuckerberg understood social ties the same way Karl Rove understood politics but that doesn't make it good. Exclusivity, ostracization and social cliques are part of our nature but are definitely on the dark side. I'd like to somehow know how many people made friends on facebook compared to how many have lost friends, husbands, wives, etc.
> "Consider that many people don't see Facebook as a privacy issue once they've weighed everything carefully and not because they're idiots."

I'm not so sure about that. I'm reminded of the recent article & hubbub about the "Girls Around Me" app. My takeaway from that was while people are aware they are exposing all their information, they are ignorant of the myriad consequences and implications until they are directly confronted with them.

And in many of the scenarios the Cassandras are warning about, those moments of realisation tend to be past the point of rescue.
If you can spend $6k to make your thing work then sure it's worth it. It's more likely that you'll find your party doesn't convert nearly as well as you hope and the users aren't nearly as sticky.

You are probably far better off spending that $6k promoting your startup on the web. The nice thing about marketing on the web is you can run significant experiments for $200 vs $2000.

From what I've heard from my recruiter friends, you want to prioritize flow, readability, and scan-ability over flashy.

Recruiters are often at-times swamped with thousands of resumes (and even more at big companies). They'll spend at most 5 minutes scanning your resume to see if you are a good fit.
Very interesting - thanks! I look forward to seeing more open-source contributions from DotCloud.

This does come out of the experience of running FathomDB, so it isn't an ivory-tower project. FathomDB grappled with the fact that traditional relational databases are a terrible match for the cloud, so we've built a new database. When it came to how to run that new database as-a-service, there was so much "undifferentiated heavy lifting" involved that we decided that open source was the way to go here.

So this _is_ the rewrite that comes from the real-world experience of running a production service. And there will be at least one real service, charging real money, and supporting real customers, built on it. But the secret sauce of FathomDB isn't the "aaS" bit of "DBaaS" - it's the "DB". By open sourcing PlatformLayer, we're hoping the community will share some of the work of "the aaS end", but even if not, PlatformLayer will be solving the problem for real.

And if that encourages you to open-source DotCloud, and if that replaces PlatformLayer, we all win. The strange economics of open source!

Products are not priced according to the sum of their costs.

If your logic was valid, similarly priced products using similar components would naturally have comparable customer service, because the cost of excellent customer service would be "built in" to the COGS of the product. But of course that's not the case.

The extra hundred dollars you spend for "RAM" has nothing to do with the cost of RAM; it's that Apple uses RAM to segment customers by price sensitivity. If you want more RAM in your iPad so much that you'll spend $100 to get it, that makes you less sensitive to price, and so Apple can soak you for the price you're willing to pay while still letting people less agape with the iPad pay less. I suppose that could irritate you, but then I've got real bad news for you about the market for automobiles, plane tickets, organic food, hotel rooms, TV sets, and furniture.

Obviously Apple can provide good customer service because of their high profit margins and spectacular overall profitability. But it is not then the case that when Apple sells products with lower margins and worse COGS that you get poorer customer service.

If your observation is that ultimately, good customer service is simply part of marketing a product: that's absolutely true, but a bit banal.
My data’s bigger than your data
Managers want employees to be fungible, so they hamper their employees. That points to a severe Principal-Agent problem. Why not ban programming altogether and make them parrot the venerable ITIL corpus?

The post is stunningly ignorant. Alan Kay points out that actual programming practice represents a tiny fraction of what is known. The answer isn't for managers to create Principal-Agent problems by dumbing down their employees, but hiring knowledgeable managers who recognize the abyss that separates the state-of-the art from industrial practice. Startups emerge from this gap in understanding.
His examples were not contrived, they were actual examples of times that mcpherrinm recently used X11 forwarding (unless you are claiming that he lied).

I just e-mailed this to them, but how they get regular sales leads is through the Universities. The universities want to get their students jobs, and if you have a real value-add service that will do that, they should have no problem posting your link and being aware of you in their offices. Your startup should be the first thing mentioned by their Career Development offices and resume courses when students ask "how do I get a job?". It won't be easy to get in front of all of them, but I bet you can get the ball rolling really fast with this exceptional product.
> your site ripped off the net, requiring you to then go to court to get it reinstated

Getting your site reinstated is as easy as the other person having it taken down: a one-page counter-notice sent to the same contact at the service provider attesting that you are not infringing the other person's copyright.

For the service provider to have "safe harbor" from liability, they must also put your content back up just as quickly as they took it down. Now the other party has to actually take you to court to take your content down again.

Nice story, but try getting them to fix a MacBook after you spill a soda on it.

True, however, I think the studios are a lot more open to technology than you realize. In my personal experience (I recently worked for the Vice President at Paramount that oversaw all VFX production for the studio), it's really up to the individual filmmakers to champion a specific technology, whether it be cameras, animation techniques, etc. Also, because the studio operates in an outsourcing style, it's also really up to the external production companies and vfx houses to choose whatever technology they feel comfortable with. To be honest, most of that is opaque from the studio's perspective, so long as the delivered product is satisfactory.

Is there a way I can learn more about your film project?
In the same post you manage to call people who don't like Facebook "weird" and "behavioral outliers" while simultaneously saying it's all their fault because they endlessly go on about how they don't like Facebook.

What about those who say nothing about it, yet still need to tolerate people like you calling them a "behavioral outlier"?

iPad on-screen keyboard. The burn-in is very noticeable after few minutes especially in landscape mode (for some reason).
The problem with that approach is that its combative, which does you no good. That's why I suggest the following, from the article:

> The best answer is to calmly and respectfully say “I believe it’s best for business to keep business and personal life separate. That’s why I keep my private life private.”
I completely agree. I've seen such things been blown out of proportion before and was aiming to keep the rules subjective while at the same time showing a serious commitment. But it's clear I didn't do a great job in articulating that so will go back to the drawing board and keep trying.

Actually, the DMCA doesn't say that. Many people have been misled because some of the popular "copy and paste" form letters for sending the notices include a different statement than is actually required.

Here's the actual text of the DMCA (HR 2281) [1]:

> A statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that
the complaining party is authorized to act on behalf of
the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed

You are only swearing, under penalty of perjury, that you're the owner of the copyright or authorized to act on behalf of an owner of the copyright. You are not swearing that you believe an infringement has occurred, or to anything else in your notice.

Thus even if you know the other party is not infringing your copyright, you are not committing perjury by attesting that they are infringing to a service provider. I don't know if there are other consequences of false takedown notices, but the swear under penalty of perjury doesn't actually exist.

I agree it is inappropriate. I also think that it is self defeating. People won't want to work for these companies.
There needs to be a lot more evidence of a systemic problem before I would advocate federal legislation for this sort of thing. Even with clear evidence of an actual problem, it sounds to me like something that states would be capable of addressing.

The desire to address every problem at the federal level is itself a problem.

I'm not taking any sides on this, but yours is another hyperbole, Facebook is definitely not as harmless as email. If every email from everyone around the world went through the same company, and they could data mine it as they wished, then they would be on equal terms.
Looks like they may have just ripped off other designs:

"I hated camp. I hated the kids, and the counselors, and most of all I hated how everyone acted like if you didn't like it, if you weren't having fun, then there was something messed up about you."

It sounds like you are anti-social. I didn't like everything about camp, but to say there are no redeeming qualities just sounds a bit suspicious to me. Anti-social people don't like Facebook because everything about it is social.

"The most oppressive and authoritarian thing about it is, at root, that most people appear to enjoy it and not see any problems with it, while you view it as this heinous violation of your freedom and imposition on your private space. The worst thing about it is that sinking feeling that no one cares what you think."

It's not that bad. The government isn't forcing you to use Facebook at the threat of death. You do have a choice. You can choose not to use Facebook. Many people do this.

Think about it this way:

Apple is the same way. They control all app distribution and can crush your app if they see fit. Apple has always controlled the hardware and software. This is more controlling than Microsoft. But there are tons of people that develop for the platform.

Google is the same way. If you lose major standing on the search engine, your sales will suffer as a result.

There's no need for anyone to provide links. A lot of people are complaining about this. And as soon as anyone tries to post in meta about this issue (the issue of mods over-zealously closing questions), these posts in meta get downvoted to no avail and there's a flamefest of "high horse" posts... By mods! Constantly defending themselves, just like you do here. It's always the same "link or it didn't happen" and then the exact same "oh but I wasn't using a 'tone' here". Yes you were. And you know it. And several people here agree...
I think the worst slop is that when faced with lack of hard data, the writers fall back on "more".

Regarding Clojure and JLine and the general niceness of REPLs, honestly I thinks it's a bit of a distraction. You don't need JLine at all, if you want to run a Clojure REPL in xterm or Terminal.app, just use rlwrap.

Most people who end up doing serious Clojure development move on to something more integrated, like SLIME for Emacs, slimv or the screen hacks you mentioned for vim, or Counterclockwise for Eclipse. I would much prefer the Clojure/core devs work on making Clojure awesome than re-inventing readline.

Anyway, once you've used the SLIME analogue for your language of choice, where you can select regions of code in your editor buffer for evaluation, copying and pasting to and from a REPL seems rather quaint.

I agree somewhat that first impressions are important, but I think that most programmers spend more time thinking than writing code, and that's especially true when you're first learning a language, and it's a big shift from that languages you know. I don't think that unfamiliarity with the tooling should be this big turn off, yet everyone makes it out to be one. When I started learning Clojure, my first impressions were based on the features of the language, and that's way more interesting than the fact that clj is a bit raw and rough around the edges.

Very good point. Sadly more people don't have the same outlook, so this invasion of privacy will probably continue for as long as it's allowed. I think talking about it like we're doing now is the best thing we can do - bring awareness to the issue. We'll reach a point where employers no longer snoop into our personal business (at least not so blatantly) when the vast majority say, "Nope, sorry."

I guess as new technologies develop that allow easier access to more and more information about our personal lives, it will take some time for the privacy issues and standards to smooth out.
Good customer service reaps a customer that makes a lifetime of iPad purchases.

Assuming their prices keep up with inflation than every two years that's $500 in today's dollars to Apple for say, 50 years. Your iPad purchases, when you are happy, is thus worth $12,500 to Apple, not counting all your friends, parents, lovers, and kids that you start on Apple.

It's not that every product you purchase from Apple has to have this good customer service cost built into it, because you're not going to need a new screen for each.

It's that they can justify the cost of good customer value by taking it from your lifetime value to the company if they keep you a happy customer.

Or something like that.

I dual boot with Ubuntu on my Macbook. For anyone thinking about making the switch, it is really easy.

My primary tools for daily life:

-> Instant messenger.

-> Email client.

-> Web browser.

-> Text editor.

Both MacOS and Ubuntu Linux have excellent working options for each, so I don't miss MacOS when I'm in Linux. Infact, sometimes I miss Linux when I'm in MacOS.

Oh.. and if you're dual-booting, Ubuntu mounts the MacOS partition as read-only, which is great for being able to access stuff in my mac partition.
