I wish the Austrian tax forms were designed so that any intelligent person could fill them out. Most of the labels are unintelligible legalese gibberish plus a reference to the relevant paragraph(s) in the tax code. Which of course is also legalese gibberish, just longer. Some of it you can just skip based on cursory scanning ("This seems to be about vehicles. I'm not trying to claim any vehicle-based expenses -> ignore). Some of it is not so easy. My first tax return took days, though at the time I wouldn't have had the money to pay an accountant, so it had to be done. Now I just fill in the same fields as the previous year, so there's not much point to hire one. They do change the forms in subtle ways to keep you on your toes but as a software developer you're pretty much off the radar of legislators in this country.

I even bought an introductory book on this stuff, but that too assumes you have an accountant and fluffs over the actual mechanics of filing. Grr!

One positive: at least you can do all of it online and the tax code is available as PDFs (thousands upon thousands of pages of course). It also checks simple invariants (e.g. it yells at you if fields A + B must be the same as fields C + D - E and they don't match) and calculates the total amount due.

Edit: Google Translate is trained using EU legal texts, so it does a good job on these forms. This is a translation of part of the VAT (sales tax) form you need to fill out once a quarter or once a month (depending on revenues) as a corporation or self-employed person:

(no, it doesn't make any more sense in German, unless you're a lawyer or accountant, presumably)

Trivia: "young wood" in the second screenshot is an attempted translation of the town "Jungholz", an exclave joined to the rest of the country by a quadripoint[1], which gets the same sales tax rate as Germany, along with Mittelberg, which is not an exclave but only reachable by road via Germany. They apparently even used German currency before introduction of the Euro[2]. The stuff you learn when filing taxes!

Yes, I agree, what I meant to express is that the discussion between Max, Peter and Thiel captures quite well that you should have arguments about important things and that too nice culture can be also toxic as it leads to these passive-aggressive expressions of frustration. It hurted to read and realize that as I've been personally guilty of latter in certain occasions.

Everything in that post seems valid but when it's coming from an entrepreneur, copping this attitude seems self-defeating. That person who just mistakenly or ignorantly referred to you as desktop support could be someone that could help you in the end.

Please take this as just frankly worded feedback: It's quite possible you think more highly of yourself (or your work) than you really should. You say you agree with Linus Torvalds quote, but chances are you are not at his level (yet) to have earned the right to get so snotty.

Just a small feature: Is it possible to add a default date for the tasks? I had to look at the date twice in order to get the due date correctly.
Nice!

STOCK MARKET CALLS | NIFTY OUTLOOK | ANALYSIS 23RD APRIL 2012
Mercurial is written in Python, and is arguably better than git in most respects.
I made quite a few games back on my Amiga with AMOS (and even one in C - though much less advanced). Used to play them with my brothers. This was pre-internet and before I'd even heard of BBS's so only 3 or 4 people ever saw them and no copies exist, unless... I still have several billion floppies in boxes at my parents place and I'd love to trawl through and see what I can dig up. Very tempted to put aside a week later this year and see what I can find.

While I'm sure nothing I created could be compared to Prince of Persia, I cannot be certain :)

Unfortunately though, Github doesn't list AMOS in their languages. Major omission if you ask me...

>no self respecting programmer should use any other mouse device.
Hmm... I find the touchpad nothing but a pain. but that may be becoz of my hand position while typing. it keeps shifting the cursor. But other than that, i have developed a distaste towards reaching for the mouse. sometimes it's absolutely necesary, but i am on a mission to setup software to use my computer mouse-free. (i.e switching to a tiling window manager,etc..) but looks like that's too hard/unnatural

I agree with you, but just to point out what I believe the GPL people think about your point: If you're going to write non-GPL'ed code, they would prefer you wouldn't even write the code, Stallman has said this many times. I think they equate this to something along the lines of just creating more "prisons" and just because you have a bunch of "prisons" to choose where to spend your life, it doesn't make you more free

You are absolutely right. Eye candy can quickly become eye straining.

First impression (5-7 seconds): no, this does not work.

In the current incarnation the page has just the right font size and just the right amount of vertical space. Strictly speaking it is a bit tight, but since every other line is grey and in a small font, the spacing of the headings becomes perfect.

The new design is prettier. But it negatively affects the usability of the site.

The GPL is extremely permissive WRT users. It allows people to obtain, modify and distribute the code, provided that they keep it GPLed and provide the source with binaries.

Contrast this with proprietary software.

There are restrictions for developers, namely that you can't link GPLed code to non-GPLed or GPLable code, and that you can't close the source.

Liberal licenses are easier on developers, but they don't guarantee that the source will remain open. Software is ubiquitous nowadays, and most appliances use closed source software of unknown quality and probity. There's spyware in every cell phone, for example.

More GPL makes a better world, overall.

There have been academic papers inspired by the Wikipedia gender gap, but this isn't one of them. This study examines differences among different Wikipedia localizations and only mentions male dominance in passing as a suggestion for future investigation.

It should really be expected that most political biographies are about men, given that the overwhelming majority of world leaders have been male. But some other gender statistics are less easily explained: http://wikisym.org/ws2011/_media/proceedings:p1-lam.pdf
This is awesome news. There are currently 3 competing frameworks: Meteor, Firebase and Derby, all discussed on HN last week. I guess the new license gives Meteor a big plus.

I am glad they changed their minds.

That said, it is rather few where this is needed. Most old people over here are intelligent enough to learn IT-stuff.

Hi,
You misunderstand. I'm not saying there is active competition. I'm saying, As a programmer, there are close to a million programmers who could execute this better in two weeks then I'm about to in the next month. But I'm still going to execute it over the next month. (Because no one else is doing it.) That means, despite my shitty execution, an idea is enough. No, this attitude won't get you investors. But it can get you something better: customers.

Above, I wasn't talking about actual competition, but your comment
"If you concede that it's all in the execution and can't make an argument for why you're the right person to see it executed -- then you've already admitted that you have nothing to offer"

which you wrote in response to:
"If the person with a great idea has something (very) substantial to offer a project based upon it then they are clearly a key component of the idea execution and should not fear discussing the idea with potential partners.

If the idea is all someone has then - frankly - no-one will want to listen to the idea in any case."

Basically, I "disagree with" the two quotes above (I don't actually disagree, since it is completely correct: no-one will want to listen to someone who doesn't say they're the best in the world at it).

I am saying that to ACTUALLY succeed (as opposed to convincing someone that you will), you don't have to be able to offer something VERY substantial above the idea. You do NOT have to have ANYTHING that makes you a VERY key player: it's enough to just have an idea and make it barely work, with a solution that there are a million people who COULD do it better in two weeks, but who aren't. I'm saying I don't have to be special or all that good or unique. I just have to have an idea, and it's okay to execute it at a level where if it were a competition with a million entrants (top million coders/teams worldwide) then I would come in 500,000.

Because it's not actually a competition with a million entrants. It's just you executing your idea. It just has to get some customers, it doesn't have to be unique or key or anything else. And often an idea is as simple as follows: There is no one doing x in my geographic area. I will learn PHP over the weekend and start offering x in my geographic area.

People do it, they make money, and they might even get investment after a while. All on a simple idea (no one's doing it here) and a shitty execution. That's the extent to which I disagree with your parent's and your quotes above. I do agree that investors want to hear chest-beating if the project doesn't exist yet, they want to hear about your Stanford and MIT credentials and how you architectured some part of paypal.

But you don't actually need to have that stuff to just do it.

About deletion: How about clicking the trashcan deletes it, but leaves it in the list grayed out? The trashcan icon then turns into an undo icon, which puts it right back in the list.

The item will be permanently deleted on page reload, or perhaps after a timeout.
It's not a question of whether that .14 is negligible. His point is that it's literally meaningless.

Say you're benchmarking some routine. One particular measurement may be 300.14 ms. The next may be, say, 302.56 ms. The one after that, 297.12 ms. You have no way of knowing whether that .14 ms is due to the implementation of the routine, or whether it's simply noise in the measurement.

The book is great. Thank you Michael.

I think that experience of reading such "Learn by example" books would be even better if:

* Each chapter or section are issues on github.

* Examples are commits, associated with the issue.

* Extensive use of labels as book index.

'ancient principle of common law'? Well thanks for the laugh at least.

According to you if I make and sell bombs it's unreasonable for a government to say 'make sure you don't sell them to nutters'.

It's a stupid argument. Of course there's a moral justification for such an edict.

Say I started a LOIC server tomorrow that people can use to attack websites. It's on EC2 so can scale wonderfully on demand. You think I can use your 'ancient principle of common law'?

I'm all for better delivery mechanisms, better competition, all that shit, but YouTube were making money off other people's hard work. They've always played with fire. YouTube even sailed close to the line of where things like gorrilavids are these days. At one point you could go on there and find pretty much any tv show you wanted. Do you know how you found them? Search for [series name] episode [x] series [x] or some variation like that.

Does that actually sound that hard to detect these with a simple automatic script? A bank breaking script? It's supposed to be user generated content, not ripped off content.

Programming skill is a diffcult thing to quantify. I personally don't think school is a good way of deciding who will be great at programming. I hired people who have had less experience who were way better programmer than my most experience guys. Personally I never had the problem of a hiring crunch because I have been willing to work with programmers with less experience on paper who turned out to just motivate themselves into success.

Wrong. NULL means that data is missing. A blank string is not missing data, it is actually data that says that the string is empty. By making an empty string NULL, it causes havoc with query joins, because an inner join against a NULL value will never return the rows. But you may want to join empty string values.

Also, if you add NULL to an IN(...) clause, it will return nothing at all. If you do a subselect that returns an empty string, then this will stop the query from working.

More traps for young players. Can't believe Oracle hasn't fixed this yet!

I ALSO SELL SMTP ,LEADS ,PHONE VERIFIED ACCOUNTS (CRAIGLIST,FACEBOOK,EMAILS,) ICAN POST ON CRIAGLIST) I ALSO SELL PAYPALL ACCOUNT, WESTERN UNION PAYOUT INFORMATION I have the help of a current 0-Day Exploit that allows me to gain remote access to the website servers and from there I find the password which is usually in an MD5 hash, from that I must decrypt to get the real password. The entire process takes about 10 minutes-15 hourS to complete. All passwords are tested out 3 times before they get issued to any clients.I also rip Standards from websites.I accept payment through LR (Liberty Reserve) Only.I hardly ever USE WESTERN UNION!
I agree, Megaupload is far too important. We need it.
Actually, his "tabs" are just migrated up to the "Window" menu of Safari since there is no bar or anything that allows you to switch between windows of a single app. (The Dock, unlike the task bar in Gnome 2 or Windows, only lets you switch between apps.)

You can also switch between windows with the Command-backspace key and with Expose (if you are on Leopard or Snow Leopard) or Mission Control (if you are on Lion), but those are pretty lame IMHO.

>The difference is that, on the Mac, for jwz, it works well with Safari and not with Firefox.

Not true: on the Mac, switching between the windows of Firefox works the same way as switching between the windows of Safari.
I did all my coding one one for about 3 years. Amazing little computers.
I agree 100%. Also, the page down key doesn't work correctly anymore: It scrolls too much. For me, the lacking page-down-usability is enough that I would never even consider placing a fixed bar on top or bottom.

Frutiger 45 is extremely legible at small text sizes, in fact. It was at one time very popular in the '90s for corporate documentation.

On screen it works well if properly hinted. Frutiger Linotype has already been hinted for screen use and is very legible.

Is venture-capital actually down in Q1-2012?
It reads like a newspaper. You read one column at a time. No hopping between columns.
I would say there is a question from a developer perspective. The idea that more choice is better and makes one more free is a cultural one and not an objective fact. There is a point where one has too many choices and they become a real encumbrance. I think Barry Schwarz has done a good job of describing this phenomenon.

I think Vasco is also brings up another valid argument. Not all choices are equal and some are not even actually choices. Either way you want to look at it, one can honestly make a sensible and consistent argument that more software does not automatically mean more freedom.
