> How about you leave it to me to state my purpose?
Just like you let Nielsen state his purpose.

> It is pretty hard to read this other than that that separate mobile site has a separate URL.

No, it's pretty easy to read that when you understand what his purpose of writing is. Use your head! Your just being argumentative because he's actually backing up what he said with evidence.

In fact, I'll go so far as to say, how can you suggest displaying a different site without someone being able to twist it into an implementation detail?

Responsive design is an implementation detail (requiring different CSS).

I swear, you are missing the forest for the trees.

You'll disagree of course, because your predisposed to. Nielsen is wrong, despite having the evidence to back it up, and you are right, because OMG he used this specific wording which an ONLY be interpreted in one way, my way. Feel free to respond, but I can't lower myself to discuss this any further.

Jason,

Rachel Marone here. You know it's me and valid because it's in italics, and that makes it true. Anyways, everything I posted on my blog is a lie. Just wanted to say that.

Well, we can go home now.
I think that what "real names only" people don't understand is that unique real names are designed for a physical world in which we can say and do things behind walls and closed doors. The internet doesn't have walls or distances. There is no separation between the work office and the dance club. A Google search and our boss knows who are our friends, what are our political opinions, and all things we can keep private in the physical world. The use of pseudonyms recreates the distances necessary for our privacy.
Agree with this 100%. In the past the way different applications integrate with each other was through sharing the same database tables. Hence the need to keep the schema synchronized across multiple applications. Nowadays applications should integrate through well-defined APIs and service interfaces. See this Martin Fowler short essay on database styles: http://martinfowler.com/bliki/DatabaseStyles.html
The post you're replying to is wrong, it's not a typo; see my reply to it.

For a background in the CSP languages have a browse of Russ Cox's http://swtch.com/~rsc/thread/
The reference [4] to Squeak is broken, it's now at http://research.microsoft.com/pubs/67508/squeak.pdf and well worth a read.

For the general case, not Go specific, there's a scheduler that tracks what processes (in the CSP sense, e.g. goroutine) are waiting on what channels. Whenever a channel becomes ready, e.g. something is available to read from it, one of the processes waiting to read from it is non-deterministically (that's important) chosen and control (the CPU's program counter, still in user-space) jumps to where it returns from the `read'. It then has the CPU all to itself until it gives control back to the scheduler by needing another particular channel-state. I'm omitting sleeping, etc., for simplicity. The switching of control is all in user-space so quite lightweight.
Black Hawk Down was an incredibly lucky (for the Somalians) accident that, if memory serves, was enabled by the combination of huge, close-by targets holding perfectly still, and a whole crap-load of rockets fired into the air.

All this is to say that you have about as much of a chance of shooting down a commercial airliner with an RPG as you do by throwing rocks at it.

With that said, good luck getting something with the firepower equivalent of an RPG anywhere close enough to a commercial aircraft to even be within the weapon's maximum range.
No, he didn't. It's not a typo. :-)

SubText handles recursion well. It shows the toplevel invocation, and when you click on a recursive call in that invocation, then that recursive call opens next to it. Like this you can expand the call graph as you with.

A demo shows it better than words: http://subtextual.org/demo1.html

And a newer demo, although it does not show the call graph expansion: http://subtextual.org/subtext2.html

I mean no disrespect, but if you have no backups for something it's your fault when it's gone.

Google's support sucks and they desperately need to improve it. But people also need to back things up, dammit.
If these things live in the client, how are they secured from interference?

It doesn't sound like he's implied that this could be manipulated by the client at all; in fact, he's explicitly implied the opposite. Why would ACL definitions have to live in code (as opposed to, say, a simple Web interface)?

I'd think something as simple as a graphical UI to define database schemata with read/create/modify permissions for owner/world on each field would be enough to cover 82% of use cases effectively. Beyond that (e.g. complex group management), I can't think of a secure client-side solution off the top of my head, but I suppose that would be what the Node.js plugin could be used for.

Edit: Actually, for a lot of use cases group management could be handled by the client as well. For example, if a group is defined by a table, then the creator/owner is de facto the first member and administrator. If any administrative actions require an admin auth key and adding new members or admins is an administrative action, then there really isn't any way to hack the system. (I assume a user's auth key could just be something like a client-side hash of their username and password.)

I agree we don't need more legislation, and that perhaps the real draw for companies here is liability exclusion, but, I think it's going a little far to say that cyber attacks are "fear propaganda". They certainly do exist and occur every day. For every 4 or 5 serious breaches we hear about there's most likely 100 more we don't. They also do real economic damage.

I personally don't put them in the same category as security theater and other fear mongering.

No, it doesn't. Language designers make lots of decisions that end up being silly. But they make them. In PHP, if it looks like a number, it will get treated like a number when being compared via ==. It's a simple, well-established, fundamental rule.
That's not what he says.

I have several free web browsers on my laptop,
but I generally do not look at web sites from
my own machine, aside from a few sites operated
for or by the GNU Project, FSF or me. I fetch
web pages from other sites by sending mail to a
program that fetches them, much like wget, and
then mails them back to me.

He's saying, much like wget (in as much as it is used to fetch a page and return the result as text) he sends an email asking for a web page which then responds with the page contents.

Now, as to why he does this, I have no idea. Thoughts anyone?
The article's timing will make sure it goes round the internet doing a lot of damage before Kickstarter is able to respond.
> I haven't seen a portable first-person game done well on any platform

Not 1st person but close enough: try Dead Space on iOS. Mass Effect Infiltrator is close behind (and recently got a nice update regarding free aiming). Both nailed touch input for this class of games, avoiding the "shoehorning an on-screen gamepad emulation" kludge entirely (like e.g Max Payne and GTA games, which I did not buy, because the show-me-a-gamepad-on-screen is a dead giveaway of a milking-the-cow release).

As for PSP, it lacked a second stick. Their decision of a single stick design was braindead, especially given the PS/PS2 experience Sony had.

So in my experience this works incredibly well as long as everyone is generally willing to cooperate. A single person that has dictatorial inclination can ruin it all, because you can no longer reach consensus on pretty much any topic. You have to either decide to give up on your core values (introduce voting or management) or have to think how to get rid of an otherwise interesting team member, which might not always be feasible.
You might be missing something here. In the Open mode you came up with your epic idea. You saw connections that were not immediately obvious and formed the kernel of the idea.

It takes the closed mode to focus on 'divide and conquer' and implementation of the idea as envisioned. This doesn't stop you going back in to Open mode to frequently consider where you are. Judge your work against it's initial goal etc.

If you are perpetually in Open mode you would continually add new features and extend the brief and never implement anything. I've worked with those kinds of people, they are a PITA.... although very creative.

Some people seamlessly switch between open and closed and others are stuck in one or the other.

I personally struggle to get in to the Open mode. After 30 years of disciplined coding, leading teams and divide and conquer my mind is highly specialised. It doesn't mean I'm not creative but it takes me longer to get in to that mode of thinking.
It says a whole lot more than that: http://rachelmarone.com/sample-page/
> Realistically, al Qaeda is a defunct organization

Based on what actual evidence? Al Qaeda has pulled off attacks in Africa and other countries besides Afghanistan and Yemen. It's a distributed organization and ideology.

I'm not saying this isn't true (I would like it to be), but claims like this sound like wishful thinking. As though Westerners cannot fathom a reason why other groups of people would want to kill them and so it surely must be a 'boogeyman'. Your statements read as though you're trying to convince yourself.

This is not an argument for the TSA (if that wasn't clear). It is possible for Al Qaeda to be a threat and for the TSA to be an inappropriate way to deal with that threat.
Interesting stuff,
I'm quite new to programming, could you please recommend some reading materials to get acquainted with these ideas?

As a newbie, I'd like to educate myself so I can contribute to the "right" projects for this time and learn to avoid the tarpits.
I don't see the need for the Backbone and Handlebars requirements to accomplish this? Wouldn't writing it as a jQuery plugin or the like suffice?
"You can use jQueries for that? :O"
While I do agree that the "vanilla multiselect" is better on tablets (I just checked on my galaxy tab), I have to point out, that it's only better, because the tablet shows me that multiselect as a checkbox array. That is exactly what this checkbox-field does, so it looks to be a steb in the right direction.

And one other thing, using multiselect in a browser with a mouse, I see no easy way of selecting just option 1 and 3, without holding the control key. This might seem perfectly normal to "us", but try telling that to someone with less computer skill. I bet that an average computer user would find the checkbox-field more intuitive.
> a narrative full of chaos, trend-starting, performance art, social commentary, and philosophical discussion

Yeah, and the more I read, I realize how easily what I said above could be true. Still, I have no proof, and await it.
go straight to high fidelity, none of this nonsense of wireframes and personas and other deliverables that many PMs and designers are obsessed with

Nonsense? Right deliverable for the right place surely.

Doing a ton of hi-fi wireframes for a startup landing page? You're doing it wrong. Redesigning a large content based site and dropping straight into Photoshop? You're doing it wrong.

As for persona - great tool for understanding your users and getting alignment across the team. Waste of time if it's just you and two other people and you are all talking to your users every day.

If you look at the criticisms of Kyro's Exec redesign the root cause of many is that it's talking to a different audience with different concerns from the original design. Exactly the sort of problem that persona help with.

Of course Kyro didn't have any persona that the Exec team had built available (if they even exist) which puts them at a disadvantage. But maybe looking at the existing content on the home page, FAQ page, etc. and building an ad-hoc persona around that would have helped.

Use the right tool for the right context.
I wrote to kickstarter this week to alert them of what was either a scam or an over confident 3d modeler. I and others on reddit pointed out a bunch of flaws in the cost of creating the product described at the given goal. It was a minimum of 3X off. Kickstarter wrote back to tell me in so many words that it is the users job to not be taken advantage of, all I could think is "yup you get your 10% no matter what so why care." Truely let down from a company I really liked.
It's also much easier to specify a C abi. You don't have to worry about name mangling, exception propagation, inheritance relationships, templates etc.
Only backers can post comments to kickstarter. So in theory the stalker is now traceable by their kickstarter payment if reported to the police.
Depending on the use case, libc, Windows API or ICU.

Personally, I'd like to see a simple C string library using modified UTF-8 (to be compatible with ASCIIZ) which is grapheme aware.

I'm tempted to take a shot at writing one myself, but haven't gotten around to it yet. If anyone is interested, see http://unicode.org/reports/tr29/#Grapheme_Cluster_Boundaries for the algorithm and http://www.unicode.org/Public/UNIDATA/auxiliary/GraphemeBrea... for the property data...
Since it looks prettier, are you going to buy the design off kyro?

Prettier does not necessarily mean better :-)

Cool! I had a (mandatory) course on compiler construction in my second year of CS as well. It was one of the toughest subjects, but it also made me understand and appreciate programming languages so much better. Like everyone, we tried to create a language without the annoyances found in many modern languages. Like everyone, we found that those annoyances are actually really hard to avoid. It was tons of fun :)

I'm going to chalk this one up to growing pains. Dealing with spam is a really difficult problem, especially in unusual cases like this. Their response definitely wasn't great, but if it was causing them a lot of trouble to keep up with the spam on that account, this might be a drain on their likely-small team and detrimental to everyone else using the site by taking their attention. This is a startup, not an enormous company we're talking about. Maybe project moderation tools would have helped with this, but they might not want project starters to be able to silence commenters. Before you bring out your pitchforks, realize that this is a small team of real people trying to do something huge, and have a million other concerns that they have to take care of, and this is a very hard and probably relatively infrequent problem.
Spam filtering got much easier for me once I started using different emails for each website and person. You can just route that particular address to /dev/null without affecting the rest of your emails.

"Because when that coin is in the air, you suddenly know what you're hoping for."

Sounds waay too easy. The one you are hoping for depends not on what is the best decision but rather in you.

And for many I'd imagine that the one they are hoping for happen to be the decision that has the best short-term benefits.

Most hard decisions are hard because of uncertainties and those don't become clear because of a coin flip. And even if you find yourself hoping for something doesn't mean that that is the right thing to do but just as much as what else you want to escape.

Making the right decision is often hard, hoping isn't.

You're right, I could write it so the only dependency is jQuery. But using Backbone makes the implementation much cleaner and more robust.

Especially considering there are three data representations that all have to be in sync:

- the actual multiselect

- the visible checkboxes

- the internal state

I thought about using pure jQuery, but my head soon started spinning and I decided to do it right.

We did this for our Compilers module during my second year CS degree at Nottingham university. It's a very interesting subject and I thought it gave a very good grounding in understanding new languages.

My guess is that he has added a price to following a link in order to reduce his information consumption because he realizes that without a cost there is the risk of gorging on things that he actually doesn't have the time for.

By artificially increasing the amount of effort required for reading a page (adding a resistance, such as a relatively complicated procedure for fetching the page) the hidden cost becomes much more visible.
The Dragon book may be a fine book but it is mainly a book on parsing, not on compilers. You first learn about control flow graphs in chapter 9! Most courses probably won't even get that far. The parts that are about compilation are very old fashioned, essentially a book about "how to compile Fortran to inefficient code like they did in the '60ies".

It would be great if there was a book on modern compiler techniques, including SSA, abstract interpretation, compiling high level languages, pointer analysis, compiling dynamic dispatch, garbage collection and closures, etc. Probably the closest are Appel's compiler books.
