I think the TSA clerks here can legitimately be charged with child molestation - follow my logic:

When I have been patted down by TSA they are always careful to ask for my consent before they sexual assault me. Since I am past the age of consent I can give it to them. Here the TSA is relying on the parents to provide the consent to sexually assault their child. I don't think a parent can legally give that consent. If I were a DA I would charge both the TSA agent and the parent with criminal child abuse.
Pat downs ARE useless.

"She said TSA agents had shouted at the girl, telling her to calm down and saying the suspect wasn’t cooperating."

What suspect? Suspected of what? This kind of pervasive cop-speak strips language of relevant meaning.
My suspicion is that, in the (presumed) absence of actual terrorists, the screeners are tested using 'secret shopper' style undercover people. They might try a wide range of scenarios, from 'oops, I forgot I left that gun in my trouser pocket'[1] through to 'can little Molly sneak an extra-large toothpaste?'

Anyone failing the test gets demoted/retrained/shouted at, until all compassion and common sense is burned out.

Communication skills matter, sorry.
I provided my advice via the comments on the post. I do not think this is an issue with buying a poor domain name. I feel this is an issue in execution. I have helped companies transition their domains from one to another without a huge drop in traffic from Google. This is because you really have to do things by the book on this. Google does provide a nice change of address form via Webmaster Tools. However, as Google states when submitting a request, you need to have your 301 redirects in place. This means, not just for your homepage, but for every page on your site. There needs to be a 1 to 1 301 redirect.

In the case of nutsonline there are some issues. As I stated in my comments there Google still has 52,300 pages indexed and some of those pages are from a staging sub domain. If we look at the pages that are not the staging ones for example: www.nutsonline.com/search?q=almonds&t=67+67+49+50 we can notice that while it redirects, it redirects first via a 301 to www.nuts.com/search?q=almonds&t=67+67+49+50 and then via a 302 to http://nuts.com/nuts/almonds/organic-dark.html This is a soft 404 and is a major contributing factor. There may be other issues, but this is a biggie.
It isn't just a kid's movie. You should watch it again.

Check on Google for "best philosophical movies" and it's always in the top 10.
Honestly I find the victim's quotes and attitudes toward this incident very disturbing. For example:

> claiming TSA treated her daughter “no better than if she had been a terrorist.”

> “There was no common sense and there was no compassion,” Croft said. “That was our biggest fault with the whole thing — not that they are following security procedures, because I understand that they have to do that.”

So basically, it's fine to treat terrorists this way, just not me and my family, because we aren't terrorists (but that Muslim family over there might be). Similarly, I don't mind following security procedures, because those are all for the good, I just don't think they should apply to people like us.

How can they fail to see that this is how the system works? This is what it is designed to do. There was no mistake made here. This is what you voted for.

No. The problem is not in how we apply these invasive, wasteful, and humiliating security procedures. The security procedures are the problem. The problem is not in who in particular is labeled a suspected terrorist. It's how we treat people.

I think the company I keep makes me think that everyone must share my perspective that the TSA is a huge waste of money and time -- makes me forget that a lot of Americans actually believe these things are making them safer and working as intended, and that incidents like this are just small accidents when the security apparatus gets turned on the wrong people. It's a sobering realization.
+1

I see plenty of blame to go around here, actually. The TSA shouldn't have required a pat-down, IMO. But we don't know exactly how this happened, and how should the TSA have known that the child would go into hysterics over this? Once the screaming starts, a lot of behaviors can change in pretty irrational ways due to the increased tension of the situation. The fact that the parents involved lost control of the situation with the child running away did not make things any easier.

I'm not saying the agents should have handled it this way (I personally think they should not have), just that it seems like a series of unfortunate breakdowns on the part of several people. There are far bigger problems with the TSA than this, IMO.

Congratulations in advance.
The problem isn't just the pat-downs. The problem is that TSA security is more of an illusion that is easily circumvented and highly inconvenient.
I flew for the first time last weekend since the TSA implemented the pat-downs.

I went through the backscatter while the TSA scanned my bags, one being a stylus with a substantial aluminum shaft. I was paranoid it would be deemed a weapon. During the screening, I witnessed a pregnant woman go through an examination.

I do not feel safer. In fact, my fear has shifted.
This looks more like q3a than q1. Interesting how they took the q1 engine this far. It looks like I would love the fast gameplay of this, I have to give it a try!
I have a hard time believing that they'd be doing testing in live airports with real (or real-looking) firearms. It's just not nearly controlled enough to be safe. Imagine a wackjob grabbing the improvised knife they always carry in their bag and trying to be a hero.
Especially when airline airplanes are also used for shipping. No need to even show up.

Information on the bill from govtrack: http://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/112/hr3523

Note that there are already 112 co-sponsors of the bill with folks from both parties. If there isn't some huge groundswell of public opinion (and a few nerd-oriented trade articles don't qualify) this could get a fairly big vote in the House. Perhaps veto-proof, more probably loaded up with lots more stuff anybody in their right mind would support (Orphan-Feeding Act of 2012?). It has certainly been set up to succeed. (Political wonk note: big difference between a bill with 100+ supporters from both parties coming to a committee vote and something like Chuck Schumer's yesterday one-of threats for better immigration law. They both might be reported in the same way, but there's a huge difference in the underlying reality.)

I'm not so sure about that.

The logic certainly applies to time invested in product choices. If you're doing a VC-backed startup, you are playing a high-risk, high-reward game. Early on, unless you are building something crucial to delivering a lot of value to a lot of people, the time spent is waste.

So if I spend $10k of developer time (as measured by, say, salaries) to build a feature that only makes $15k back in revenue or cost savings, then that's a bad move in a VC-funded business, even though most businesses would be happy with that.

Our rule of thumb when making build/buy decisions is to use a number well above loaded developer costs. 3x, I think, for precisely these reasons of opportunity cost.

I agree that startups should still strive to be frugal, but I do note that Google had a chef from early on, and it's pretty standard startup advice to pay up to hire the best people you can get, rather than getting somebody cheap but adequate-ish. Sometimes being frugal requires paying up.

Its a lot easier to get started with ShopLocket than with something like Etsy and the ability to select a style and embed it on your own site is a big plus. We plan to add custom CSS to widgets in the coming months, which should make widgets even more appealing.

Also on Etsy you still have a "store", and it only makes sense for certain categories of products. We're all about putting your products in front of your audience and the people that matter, rather than you just being another product in a generic marketplace. We want to create the ideal "display case" — a platform as awesome as the products people are selling.
I thought openID would solve the password problem, because it would allow for each person to remember one password only (which is still better than password1234). What reasons prevented the widespread adoption of openID? For example, if I were a startup, I'd want to have openID on my site to make it easier for users to register, and help them to not forget their passwords. Yet for some reason there are few sites that support it. Any thoughts?
I think renownedmedia is referring to the dramatic improvements made to the open source Quake 1 engine. Admittedly, id Software doesn't profit from those improvements, but it's not like they were making money off of such an old engine anyway.
Participating thoughtfully in 'webmaster forums', primarily. I made over 20,000 posts at SitePoint alone. Each site I made was promoted on the previous ones... I still heavily cross-promote as there's overlap in the market for most things I build.

I believe the difference is "normal" versus "emergency". My startup aims for a sane work-week, but if something caught on fire I would be there until the fire was put out.

As long as that happens rarely, it's not a problem. And you keep it that way by carefully analyzing each fire and making sure that you solve the root causes.
The A/B Test: Inside the Technology That’s Changing the Rules of Business
(My opinion is that the whole system is stupid, pointless and performs some theatre at the windows while the doors are wide open. Someone determined will be able to get through, or just attack somewhere else. All you want to do is catch the idiots, which pre-911 screening did just fine. The response to terrorism is to not be terrorized and to live well, not to amplify the little things they actually do.)

We should be very careful about "common sense" and screeners making their own minds up about things. It is far better that they follow a consistent set of rules. This for example is why the liquids rule is a good one from a screening point of view. There is no discretion left to the screeners and they don't have to entertain arguments about which liquids are harmless and which aren't, types of liquids, size of containers etc. Think carefully - do you really want each screener enforcing their own views? How trivial do you think they would be to outsmart by someone determined?

The American political system especially as espoused in the media where trivial things are inflated to make stories, there is relentless hounding of politicians who are rational, it is cheaper to have controversial talking heads instead of research and reporting, someone always has to be to blame, and issues are presented as black or white soundbites means that no politician can reasonably try to rein in the system or have detailed discussions on risks, spending, tradeoffs etc.
I'm experiencing the same issue. Fans blazing as we speak.
This presupposes that there is no mechanism for assessing the relative threat of a passenger. Basically every passenger is an equal threat and so everyone needs to be processed identically.

Of course that is a non-sensical assumption but 'profiling' is considered a worse evil and so the TSA terrifies little children in order to avoid the evils of profiling.

I agree in part.

I strongly approve of people who go home on time. But I'm very suspicious of developers who consistently work a lot of hours. Working tired is like working drunk: your judgment is one of the first things to go.

That matters less to me in other fields. But software development is all about good judgment. And version control preserves every late-night mistake until a well-rested person cleans is up later.

"positive form of conspicuous consumption"

I don't see spending money on yachts or jets as negative and somehow the fact that "charity" is mentioned that's automatically positive. People earn a living staffing yachts and jets, they are built by companies employing people. That money circulates further in the economy and provides benefits and is paying for someone's health care and college education.

So to answer your question "Would you rather that they compete..." I would rather they do whatever they want to do with the money they have earned without some kind of movement played out in the press which makes it looks like donating 1/2 to charity is the noble choice to make.
I don't remember, but it wouldn't surprise me, that way it updates correctly for offline mode and if you have conditional logic it can work on changed data. It also improves page load time, which is very important for Google in general but doubly so for an online office suite (Excel opens quickly, so should a Google spreadsheet).

You should see some good ones and some bad ones. I'll let you decide which is which.

How about: Samba, sendmail, Apache, procmail, popa3d, proftpd.

You should also consider checking out other programs which in the same "space" as those, so that means postfix, qmail, qpopper, wuftpd, and so on.

See if you can find the original netcat (by hobbit) and then compare it to the GNU version.

Those are just the ones which come to mind at the moment, probably because they scarred me in some way.

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it.

For book projects, I work with a trade publisher or publish myself, depending on the project.

If a trade publisher handles the project, they take care of printing and distribution. (One of the major benefits of trade publishers is that they'll get you shelf space / promotion at major retailers.) I generally work with trade publishers if I think the book has mass market appeal that would benefit from broad distribution. (The threshold is 20k+ copies.)

If I'm self-publishing, I use Lightning Source (http://lightningsource.com/). They're print-on-demand, and owned by Ingram, so you get instant distribution on Amazon and bookstore websites. Most bookstores will also list your title as "available for order" if a customer requests a copy by name. 48hrbooks.com is great for one-off workbook or other specialty orders that don't need retail distribution.

If I'm self-publishing electronically, I use my own delivery system and/or Amazon Kindle Direct publishing. Lots of control if you do it yourself, and/or hire specialized contractors.

Hope this helps!
It looks like the trick is just to buy your way through:

Google encourages people to have multiple accounts in some cases (they even tried their best to force it when converting products over to Google Apps), I think you only get in trouble if you are banned and then try to use another account for the same activity.
