Strong play by Google's lawyers here.

Google: This means that a JME app may not run on a JavaCard device?
Edward Serevan: Yes.
Google: There are different APIs between JavaCard and JSE?
Edward Serevan: [Some disagreement over the differences between versions.]
Google: There are differences between JSE, JEE, JME, and Java Card?
Edward Serevan: Yes.
Google: How can it be that (Oracle can say that Java is WORA)?
Edward Serevan: Oracle defines WORA as across platforms [different operating systems], not Java versions.

I'm not sure how Oracle is going to get the assertion that Google caused significant damage to the Java ecosystem by their violation of WORA to stick here, in light of this testimony. By any objective measure, Google has created a new platform for Dalvik in Android.
I have to call shenanigans on this one.

My music library is about 100GB and accordingly, my iTunes library XML is 31.2MB. My system operates on an SSD, but the entire iTunes DB is located on an internal 2TB hard drive, it's my slow one too.

Never experienced this or anything close to this. It could be a bug related to libraries around 200GB or an XML file of over 60MB or something, but it's not directly because of the fact that iTunes re-writes the XML file when you make any change.

That does happen, but it shouldn't lock up iTunes unless there is something wrong with your computer. Why? Because iTunes doesn't even use that XML file. It only exists to give 3rd party apps direct access to the iTunes library info. I can jump through my 20,700 song library, with the iTunes folder open watching it rewrite that XML file every time I do anything. No machine slowdown to speak of, on both a Mac Pro and an 11 inch MacBook Air where the library is in the same location as the system.

I think there is something wrong with your machine. This would drive me absolutely insane, and I use iTunes every single day for hours a day, almost without exception.
it is an important question, but it's far away from the issue. that's why nobody is asking that, because it's not important in this specific issue.

riseup is a collective driven isp that is focused in social change activists, so they do have values and principles different than making money. the issue here is not the disrupt, it's the attack on those values.

i hope you now understand why nobody ask about that, it is important, but not the issue about this. also it's because this values people put faith in them and not in google, amazon or another money focused company, me included :)
Other than their "We've got stock" events that happen probably 3-4 times a year, the best option to get a hold of a buyvm vps is to hit up the irc channel. Often they have some available when other people cancel their accounts.

If you don't want to try this route, follow @FrantechCA on twitter and watch for announcements. Stock sells out in a matter of days, especially their smaller instances.

You can't have it both ways. Either there's a large pool of experienced and talented trans software developers (in which case they don't really need salvation from poverty and sex work) or the people you're trying to recruit don't have the necessary skills to succeed in technology startups. Furthermore, you can't claim you're following a proven business model while undermining that model.

I'm not saying any of this in bad faith. I just genuinely think this TCombinator concept makes no sense and that your and Allison's statements have been inconsistent and nonsensical. To whatever extent I quoted you out of context, it was to address specific points that the rest of the context still didn't meaningfully address.
Agreed. I am constantly playing package management musical chairs.
Emails like that are more likely evidence that Google's Android partners can't hire good lawyers (not that we don't have other evidence of that, of course). Google would have to take their concerns seriously regardless of what their own lawyers said so it wouldn't be surprising if their partners' position wound up being Google's baseline.

I've been running a fair amount of infrastructure with them for a while now and I can't possibly recommend them highly enough. I remember there was a time a couple years ago when there was a queue to get a box with Luke. You have to know what you're doing and there are no training wheels attached, but they're awesome and has always been hugely helpful. I figured I'd just start out on them (being cheap) and eventually move off: but networking's been rock solid, and over the past couple years I've been able to work with them to get custom boxes for specific needs. Once I got a SMART condition warning on a dedicated box and they were on it basically instantly.

They know how to manage their network, they're colo'd in multiple top-tier DCs, and the prices are just impossible to beat. I'm able to run infrastructure comprising ~500GB RAM for literally 3% of the cost of EC2, with hugely better disk io to boot.

First, no one talks on the phone at a normal volume when they're on the phone. They always speak louder in order to speak "over" the noise of the bus.

Second, yes, it totally does. The guy loudly talking into his phone is audible to everyone on the bus, thanks to the fact that he's speaking loudly. It's really obnoxious. e.g. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O0uTi2qkgf0

With that said, you could probably practice this stuff on the bus without being obnoxious by simply speaking more quietly. You'll still be more annoying than the quiet guy reading a book, but probably not unreasonably so.

Anonymous Must Evolve Or Break Down, Say Researchers
Techies that find iTunes so frustrating do amuse me. My iTunes library has been located in a non-default location since the original iTunes for OS 9.

External drives, network locations, internal secondary drives, over the years my needs and requirements have changed. iTunes has worked in all those locations. My current library has a creation date of 2009.

Initial import does take quite some time. Good thing I haven't had to do it since... well 2009 I guess.

iTunes isn't the black box people make it out to be. iOS device management through iTunes is, I'm not even going to touch that one. However the regular library functions of iTunes are quite simple and keeping a library from being destroyed isn't difficult.

> Good riddance.

Still the best library based jukebox for OS X. I'm willing to put it up against any other option.
And it still has garbage like the pepper brush.

I know you're already an accomplished language learner, but why bother listening to English audio if you're learning Portuguese in Brazil? If you really need subtitles, at least it should be the other way round: Portuguese audio with English subtitles (readily available in DVDs, and maybe some cable channels too).

Another way is watching dubbed movies on (non-cable) TV. If you've already seen the movie, then you don't care if you miss 80% of the dialogue.

And by commitments, I don't just mean its budget and its 16 trillion in debt.

I include all the debt we took over from the banks and the bottomless pit of AIG.

I include all the private pension funds that are insured by the government.

The President of the Dallas Federal Reserve, Richard W. Fisher, painted a rather bleak picture of what our liabilities actually are when he spoke to the Commonwealth Club.

Fisher said back in 2008, before the collapse of AIG, that our liabilities exceed $99 trillion. His speech is here:

http://www.dallasfed.org/news/speeches/fisher/2008/fs080528.cfm

Of course, we can walk away from these things or inflate our way out, but those are just different endings to the same bubble.

Confidence that the bubble will not collapse is the only thing keeping this bubble from collapsing.
They are going to assert the Android is for phones, and J2ME is for phones. Thus Android broke their WORA definition for that platform. Seems fairly straightforward and that Google is kind of making their case for them.

(Just to clarify: I think Oracle should, and is likely to lose their case.)
APIs should be copyrightable? So..

- Microsoft should be able to shut-down clean-room re-implementations of Windows? Like WINE and Sun's Wabi?

- IBM should have been able to crush Compaq over their reverse-engineered BIOS?

- Digital Research should have been able to crush Microsoft for including system calls that enabled CP/M compatibility for some programs in DOS?

the cheapest you can possibly get

It's cheap for Xen, but in the much more common case of not needing to swap out your own kernel, there are a huge variety of cheap FreeBSD and Linux OpenVZ VPSes available for around 15USD/year with decent enough storage and IPv6 (see lowendstock.com, no affiliation).. or did you mean, cheap at the high end?
Why does it never occur to you people that your machine might have a problem? The Finder constantly locking up is not normal behaviour, no more than Windows Explorer locking up is normal behaviour. Why would you even think otherwise?

Seriously, is this HN or YouTube? It's just ridiculous how whiny techs get when it comes to iTunes, OS X and iOS. I can solve an endless stream of technical problems all day with varying requirements and urgency, but syncing my iPhone is such a mystery!

Give me a break. Here: Create a new partition on your drive, install a fresh copy of OS X. Does the Finder still lock up? No? What a surprise. OS X is a preferable OS for some people. It's not going to hold your hand and wipe your ass for you FFS, you still need to put in the slightest bit of effort.
I think the reason is that people saw the torrent of media attention that Instagram got. Every CEO is thinking now "If I can only get the number 1 billion somehow in a press release I will be on every newspaper and blog in the country." Quite predictably, Instagram got people greedy and spurned them to action.

If you go to a good securities lawyer and say "We need to get a round closed at one billion dollar valuation, but the investors need it to be effectively at a lower valuation because for them 1 billion is just ridiculous" the lawyer will figure out a way to do it. There are all kinds of tools that you can use to ensure that the investors still make money for exits under 1 billion even if the valuation is technically 1 billion.

So this is all just headline grabbing.

Anonymous to join Bahrani opposition to F1 Race
For the uninitiated: F1 is hosting a race that has been held in poor light amongst the population of Bahrain, and many others around the World; they were successful in disrupting and stopping last years race. Will their newly found allegiance with Anon prevail this year as well?

I personally have lost all interest in watching F1 as a motor sports series in 2008 (for obvious reasons) and now mostly follow it to monitor and follow the presence of corporate and political collusion. This is just another example of why.

I'm entirely objective and neutral on the matter, mind you; I and wanted to see what others with greater skills and knowledge in technology gauge of the effectiveness of these 'cyber warfare' tactics. If I'm not mistaken they mainly operate using DDS attacks, right? So far the main site is still operating ahead of the first practice session in a few hours.

Yes, but the rich only get rich on a bubble if they know it is a bubble and get out soon enough. So we are to assume that the rich are getting the tech train moving, letting the Hoi polloi add some rule coal to the fire, then hopping off before the thing crashes off a cliff?

That is possible, but every part of my forced analogy is necessary for the idea to hold water.
A few things that would make me use this:

- Shapes for user interface widgets (windows, buttons, text fields, etc.) for desktop and mobile

- A way to easily share my diagrams via a url (could be as easy as generating a url in the form of http://www.diagram.ly/?diagram=[hash of the xml])

- Direct uploading of exported images to a image sharing website (e.g. imgur). Although you might be able to generate a little revenue by hosting them yourself and serving them up alongside an ad?
really an optical illusion? I heard two different flows of water splashing in the bucket which I would not expect if it was just an optical trick.
Since water droplets look alike, you get the illusion, at the proper frequency setting, of water dripping up.

I wonder how it would look if a different dye was injected into the flow every few seconds, just above the faucet. Presumably, the colors would appear to flow down as the water appeared to drop up.
I think that's easily trumped, though, because "phones" are not a platform. They're a form factor. Otherwise, J2ME should run on iPhones and Windows 7 devices.

Part of the whole Android package is a hardware specification [1]. Android The Product is a platform, which consists of a compatible hardware device and a Dalvik VM with Android APIs. It isn't just the software. J2ME might happen to run on some handheld battery-powered computers, but a form factor does not a platform make.

Not everyone has the ability or personality to be a hyperfocused genius working on a difficult task. Even if they could, it's simply doubtful that a learner would pick up everything necessary to be at C1 level in 5 months. On Chinese-Forums we have a few posters who have done intensive full-time study of Chinese using modern methods for months, and I don't believe any of them managed to achieve that level in several months. A2, B1, yes.

See this long debate about whether a guy can achieve C1 fluency in 3 months:

http://www.chinese-forums.com/index.php?/topic/36222-benny-l...

The proof is in the pudding - pass a C1 test after 5 months, starting from 0, and we'll all acknowledge it's been achieved.
Yes, it has been the leading hypothesis for a long time (as long as I can remember). The point of the exercise was to confirm it with high enough precision to rule out other possible explanations. If you read the article, you will see that this was mostly a non-trivial problem of tracking down all of the data.
Travel Data Startup Duetto Raises $2.1M From Trinity, Marc Benioff, Many More
It's nice the Applescript exists (although I was talking more about Windows) but again, it's very sad one has to use an Applescript to accomplish this, on Mac.

I mean, a solution is out there: very good. Nevertheless, it doesn't justify or excuse iTunes for not having this feature.
The main message I got from talking to people involved in systems biology is that we don't even get qualitative agreement between simulation and experiment, nevermind any sort of quantitative data, on extremely well studied systems like the lac operon. It seems like we're at least 25 years away from decent models.

For the repl, can you try "circa_d -repl" (one dash instead of two)?

There is definitely some breakages in there, and most of those samples won't run currently. I'm rewriting the app that runs things in a graphical shell and I hope to have that ready soon. If you are feeling brave, you can go back in time to use Plastic (the SDL-based shell that I was relying on for a while). Instructions for that:

Checkout revision efb5300

Delete the files at src/generated/*.cpp and run prebuild.py again

scons build/plas_r (this will require SDL)

Launch with: build/plas_r samples/asteroids.ca (or some other sample)
Check out Path Finder - http://cocoatech.com/pathfinder/. I've been using for a while, it's light years beyond Finder. You can't completely kill Finder, OS X won't allow it but Path Finder makes it a lot better.
Yes, many people have no problems with iTunes. However I find it amusing that people think the large population of the rest of us to be 'crazy' or some such because we all seem to experience the same problems and can reproduce them very easily.

Itunes is the very definition of a black box. If you have an even slightly large library, it becomes a slow behemoth writing it's awkward binary-xml-shit files every time a change is made.

And no offense, you did not move your library across all those spots without issue. It's frankly not possible. Moving those files causes iTunes to lose it's absolute references to them and you have to do a reimport.
There's a lot wrong with this, but I'll just say that there are many more than two ways to value a company, and if you used the first type he cites (taking the net present value of future profits) you are effectively ignoring any assets the company currently owns, including IP, cash, property, plant, and equipment, short-term investments, long-term investments, just to name a few.

I hadn't heard of lowendstock.com. At first, I thought you had misspelt lowendbox.com (I've been listed once or twice, but other than that, no affiliation, and they didn't charge me for the listing, which is a good sign. Some sites require a cut to refer customers to providers; others require a flat fee; Me, I think this introduces a unhappy bias.)

Personally, I feel that a megabyte of ram in OpenVZ and a megabyte of ram in Xen are not directly comparable. (a megabyte in KVM and a megabyte in Xen are, I believe.) but yes, for some uses, OpenVZ works quite well, and it can be had for very little money.

I've been in Australia for nearly a year now, and the dearth of movies/videos available to buy/rent here is astounding. If you're lucky, a TV show will be re-broadcast here a year after it airs elsewhere. But the channel will probably butcher it with editing and additional commercials.

After talking with friends here, I can honestly say if the content was legally available the studios would have many, many customers. And please don't try to charge us 25% more. We know all about buying online and do price comparisons.
If that's a third-party SSD, it's probably a hardware problem.

My plan in the upgrade was to offer people a choice between significantly more disk and significantly faster disk, but the way things have been shaping up (we're very slowly upgrading the customers that I re-ip'd) we've only had one or the other available at a time.
