Beware: CDPATH can wreck some eye-gouging pain when compiling ruby gem extensions.

And by eye-gouging pain, I mean that it takes you an extended period of time to determine why you can't bundle env-js when everyone else seems to have no problem. A simple export CDPATH="" resolves the issue with no problem.

An iPhone has never been released at a WWDC before. So no.

The WWDC (World Wide Developer Conference) is aimed at developers, so it's not the right forum for major hardware releases. I'm pretty sure the mainstream media won't be present.

Perhaps I'm less on the semantic side of things, but you get tickets for violating the law, or penal code. The definition of criminal is (I'm guessing) 'person who breaks the law'.

I suspect that, in light of that, you get tickets for criminal behavior.

There are less criminal charges, for sure -- like driving at night without working headlights, but that still violates the law requiring you to maintain a safe and drivable vehicle, and is as such a criminal act.
I would argue that the trend is that gaming is moving away from complex gameplay rather than away from desktop.

What we see is less complex titles released every year both on PC and console. The reason is probably because development cost is increasing super-linearly (exponentially) both as money and time. See Battlefield, CoD, Assassin's Creed, NFS... I can't imagine how much they spend on all those details (gameplay & visual)

It's easier, faster and cheaper to move towards we/mobile where the market is hot (many new people, not only fans) and the gameplay involves simple actions.
I bet a lot of folks under the Iron Curtain would have loved to have had access to these documents back in the day.
Most laws and regulations require a site to provide "reasonable" and "adequate" protection. While those are loaded legal terms it is generally interpreted in such a way that a site should be proactive enough to be updated against known and patched vulnerabilities. It looks like TIM is reporting on those -- I didn't see any zero-day stuff -- so, to answer your question, I think TIM has a very defensible position if faced with a suit.

Google is wrong insofar as folders apply to individual humans.

Folders work for an individual because of the vast amount of spatial processing power in the human brain. We are hardwired to put, get and find things. The spatial metaphor is useful because manipulation fits so easily into it. Even the notion of search itself is spatial.

On the other hand, classifying, categorizing and labeling things does not come as naturally. Imagine how odd it would be for a person to actually label their toothbrush, washcloth, and showercap "bathroom equipment" rather than simply placing them in the bathroom.

Although computers allow us to have the same thing in more than one place - e.g. a single file can be accessed via verbally different but logically identical references; this does not detract from the spatial metaphor, we still are able to apply the spatial metaphor of "the file is located here."

I would go further to suggest that Google's continuous SEO woes shows the problem with accessing information via tags rather than by placement whenever bad places with good tags rise to the top of results.
I agree with your distinction.

However, the paragraph from the Lua manual still shows sloppy technical writing. Terms should be defined before they are used. Using another technical term is not a good description. For example, coming from Python an "associative array" would have to be called a "dictionary". For the Java and C++ programmers it would be a Map. Better:

The table type provides storage of values under certain keys. Lua uses tables to represent ordinary arrays, sets, records, queues, and other data structures, in a uniform way. For example, a table can be used as an array, since it can store arbitrary data under index numbers as keys.

The two things you posted are completely un-related.

Film cameras generally have a 180 degree shutter, which means that the film is exposed for half the time each frame is in the gate - which means at 24 frames per second, the exposure time is 1/48th of a second. A 360 degree shutter would theoretically therefore be 1/24th of a second at 24 frames per second, or 1/48th of a second at 48fps (so should exhibit similar motion blur to 24fps at 180 degree shutter).

The EPIC is perfectly capable of taking any of these exposure times (up to 360 degrees - I'm not sure what the limit is exactly at the low end - probably something like 1/10000th of a second).

Now, 'rolling shutter' is just the fact that each column of pixels along the sensor are read sequentially, so there is a slight difference in time from the first column to the last one being read (called the read-reset time). This can be really bad on cheap cameras with slow read-reset times, where it can cause vertical things like light-posts to look skewed when you pan across them quickly, but the EPIC's read-reset time is fast enough that it's not a problem (it is similar to the time it takes a film's mechanical shutter to blank).
In general, Apple favors skeuomorphism.

The problem isn't in rounding or floating-point, these implementations won't be good enough to get even close to have to consider the issue of having to round correctly.

You really need to reduce the argument to a sane range, otherwise the `n' required even in infinite precision would be huge.

I guess that porting to Mac made them fix most of hard coded system assumptions.

Wine is amazing but it still is not the same as native support, because of small performance hit or possibility that game that you bought will stop working in the future (ie: because some game patch or anticheat protection that will detect wine as modification). Because of that Steam and Source games are very welcome. Probably I'll buy them and don't play them because of lack of time(just like all HIBs).

The challenge of publishing "novel" work exists in many fields, not just psychology, and the debate about potential false positives is ongoing. It's great to see this reproducibility work being done. I'd like to see it in my field.
Python iteration
It sounds like if you (the developer) don't rebuild the native bits for x86, Intel rams your binary through some sort of ARM->x86 translator when you upload your app to Play. Appears the translator works fairly well, given that GTA3 was mentioned to work without issue (as the app hasn't been updated since January, I'm operating with the assumption that it wasn't built with x86 binaries)
There is a legal distinction between 'civil' and 'criminal' law. To oversimplify things, 'criminal' laws are ones that reflect some sort of moral code (e.g. laws against murder and manslaughter), and 'civil' laws are ones that are simply rules (e.g. speed limits, jaywalking). Civil cases can't be punished with jail time or anything like that.

First: node is freaking amazing. I've been writing python CGI on Apache for the last few years, but can easily see myself moving to:

nginx -> Static html/javascript/images/css

node.js -> API

Apache -> old Python CGI stuff I still want (beautiful soup, for instance)

To me, this stack is a lot more comfortable, and is a lot faster.

Here are a couple of things that this tut misses.

1) You need to talk to your database. This will become immediately apparent when you try to do anything. You can google around, which will lead you to stack overflow, or you can just listen to me right here and use "mysql".

npm install mysql

Easy.

2) Callbacks. This is freaking huge. node will not make any sense to you if you do not understand this. For instance, if you have a function called "get_username()" (Hi! I have a function called get username, I'm speaking from a mistake I made about this!), and you call it like this:

username = get_username();
res.write("Hi, you are: " + username);
res.end("buhbye!");

Your page is just going to crash because username is undefined. This is because node is nonblocking. It doesn't wait for get_username() to return before continuing...meaning your server will end before get_username() finishes.

This is a problem.

So what you need to do won't make sense at first (and maybe I'm doing this wrong, correct me if I am).

you would do:

get_username(res);

and then you would have:

function get_username(res) {

do_some_things;
db.query(query, function() { ;
//this is your db connectors callback function. It fires when your query is finished.
username = some_query_results['user'];
res.write("Hello, you are: " + username);
call_some_other_function();
or_if_this_is_the_last_thing_you_want_to_do_call res.end();
});
}

The point here [and this is obviously just pseudocode] is that you don't just write out a list of functions. You write functions that call each other when they're finished.

It seems that psychology has always been about the atypical rather than the typical. In most other sciences, the goal is to hopefully build a useful model of the typical, and observations outside that model result in alterations to the model.

In psychology the idea seems to be to produce the inverse of that, yet there doesn't appear to be any particular end goal of producing the typical model, only in defining the atypical cases to the nth-degree. The result? We have no better idea what the typical mind is like than we did a hundred years ago, but we have exhaustive lists of subtly different atypical models so encompassing that almost anybody could be recognized as having a psychological problem of some sort!

Describing a new disease (atypical model) is one of the only ways to get recognized in the field. But all the easy cases have been taken, so bizarre models seem to make the publishing rounds much more readily than new subtle delineations on previously recognized diseases.

In treatment this turns into quack and fad medicine like "I prescribe shared strip club night for marriage problems, with the idea that it forces couples to talk to each other about their sexual problems blah blah blah" or "Anger therapy" or "Primal Therapy" or other such nonsense.

I'd say that with the tools we have available today, that psychology is due for an Einstein level revolution, but I'm not sure that the field, internally, is ready for this.
"Given all the other problems that the RED cameras have given Jackson's team, forcing them to exaggerate set colors and makeup etc."

The uncorrected preview output from a RED cameras can look quite dull on a monitor, but after grading the RAW footage we've only found it to have better latitude and colour rendition than most other cameras. I don't know if it's a problem with their post workflow or what, but it doesn't sit right...

As a student about to enter the work force, I'm personally having an internal struggle with which lifestyle to choose to pursue. There is the go-big-or-go-home obsessive startup world work mentality, versus another side of the online world which I feel Hacker News glosses over without much recognition: building lifestyle passive income businesses online. There are countless amounts of people easily making 6 digits online, so it can't be an argument that people need to work this hard to earn a living. It's rather silly how easy it is to make money online with a simple product.

So if money isn't the problem, then why do people work their asses off until they break down or burn out? Is it just a social norm that people have to keep getting bigger, growing, hiring more, and raising more money?

I don't know that I'm yet convinced that speeding is a civil offense. Can you give me an example of a civil offense that I would get a ticket for? I have always thought of civil laws as those that corporations need to abide. Perhaps I'm wrong?

As for speed limits and jaywalking specifically, you appear to be right that they aren't criminal offenses until a threshold has been crossed (e.g., speeding 15 over the limit). But those seem to be considered 'infractions', and I admittedly don't know where the lines are.
Yes, an iPhone has never been unveiled at a WWDC.

I don't agree, do you have any statistics or sources to back up your assertions?

Mobile gaming is on the rise, it is most definitely going to grow a lot over the next 5 years, but unless the technology evolves at an incredible rate it cannot compete with desktop computers and consoles as a proper gaming experience. Mobile is creating a bigger market by converting those that don't care for games into those that do through "casual" gaming, it isn't turning console/desktop gamers into solely mobile gamers: it could easily be argued that mobile gaming rising in popularity will positively affect desktop/console games, it will serve as a gateway to gaming as it becomes more "accepted".

You can already do that...
Agreed, also I don't think Valve has as much interest in the simplified mobile gaming market. There is value in a high production value game done correctly. I don't think they have so much to fear.
> Will MS take a slice of the pie, through their distribution channel? I can see that as being an instant turn off.

Valve already do, but it's not disclosed to the public how much. So I can't see how MS doing so would make any difference.
I disagree, I think it's far easier to teach coding by showing easy code examples without going into algorithms or abstractions at all. I'll point to codeacademy, who are doing this very well. People learn really fast with their method, it's working very well. Abstractions are much harder to understand than things you can actually use and see it working.

You just have to avoid the mistakes the article talks about. Which is assuming the reader knows what you're talking about and introduce too many topics at once, forcing him to run in circles trying to understand each one. I think that's the n1 mistake in teaching in general.
Time to re-apply ...
Unfortunately, Taylor series are just about the worst choice possible for implementing transcendental math functions, due to the highly non-uniform error distribution. You end up doing far to much work to get good accuracy near the edges of the domain of interest. Much better choices of polynomial approximations for almost any such situation are (in increasing order of goodness and difficulty to work with): Chebyshev series, Cathedory-Fejer, and Minimax.
It happened already 50 years ago, it just doesn't get any press. Pretty much everything I've been reading in the past few years (Kahneman, Baumeister, Baron, Stanovich, Wilson for example) will pass this with flying colors.

It is true however that psychology requires a bit more intellectual honesty then other fields. Mistakes are more subtle and easier to cover up, samples are smaller and there's always the excuse of different cultures. I'm really curious what this project will uncover.
What is good code?
Just taking a look at the map, everyone on there is either Happy, Very Happy or Extremely Happy. Without sounding like a pessimist, I have a feeling people have a tendency to say they are happy when they aren't, I'm not sure if any data this project collects will have any value at all, apart from portraying us Brits as a jolly happy bunch.
Rackspace Contributes Cassandra CQL Driver For Node.js
If you want to see some crazy math stuff, look into axiom[0]. It's an open source computer algebra system programmed in Common Lisp. The manuals for the project add up to be ~10,000 pages[1]. It's all done in the literate programming style and it's being actively developed. I am probably going to write an idea up in a month or so, but if a computer programmer wants to learn some advanced Math beyond first year calculus quickly, downloading axiom and working through the first tutorial is the way to go.

Bear Grylls on facing death -- over and over again
Yeah, I had the same experience on my first trip to California. I had lived in Boston for years (you know the joke, right? "What's the largest cause of traffic accidents in Boston?

I thought I was screwed, but once I stepped out into the crosswalk, I felt like Moses parting the Red Sea. Surreal :-)

Ethics of impersonation in business
I work at a co-working facility with quite a few startups. I have now heard several different people from different companies impersonate other people on the phone. Fake name, fake title, fake email and fake phone. I believe all in an effort to extract more information than they could get being themselves.

How prevalent is this in business and is this even legal?
I wonder if read and write times on-par, or better than, DRAM's are achievable with such modern core memory.

Cool project, btw :-)
There's possibly a selection bias in that people are being asked to download and install the app (maybe unhappy people are too listless to get involved?).

However, that doesn't mean the data collected will have no value. We've no idea what they may be comparing the data against so perhaps they'll be able to tackle the question of whether people are really happy, when they say they are.

Also, this is the first example I've seen of researchers trying to use existing devices to run large-scale experiments. I've heard of them but not seen one before. Just being able to complete something on this scale is a win as far as I'm concerned.
