> Not being able to draw rounded corners properly is unique to "the kind of web work I do"?

This one I just don't understand because, ostensibly, your argument is that you have to down-code for browsers that don't support new features yet, but this is a feature that rapid-release browsers support that others didn't for a long time... It's also a trivial rendering issue and doesn't break anything if not working.

Yes, the codec problem seems specific. Most web video is handled by Flash, not the browser itself. If you're using it, you're trying "cutting edge" stuff which I thought is what you were saying isn't important to have...

And the Flash/Java issue you mentioned happened in an "LTS" release, which means that it's specifically the version of Firefox that does (supposedly) get adequate QA before release because it's only updated about once a year, with the goal of it being more stable. So it seems this kind of thing is just as likely to happen either way.

> I'm far from the only person to report any of the issues I mentioned

I'm not saying these things didn't happen or weren't reported by others, I'm just saying that the things that apparently happen frequently for you due to rapid-release have almost no effect on the greater internet. It seems like you're saying it's something that's bad for everyone, when really it seems it's just pretty crappy for your situation. In reality, rapid release is by far a net positive.
hey this is pretty awesome, thanks for sharing.

Amazon Kindle introduces first time ever touch layer
We all know that the touch screen feature is an amazingly convenient feature. Keeping this in mind Kindle also has launched its touch-screen augmenting the Amazon range. This is the first time that this feature is added in the form of a touch-sensitive layer. The screen still bears the old and familiar e-ink b/w (black & white) look. The pricing of this device is a little on the higher end with £109 and this is comparatively expensive when rated to the standard Kindle priced at £89. These models are available for pre-booking and are likely to be shipped in April end.
That the productivity of employees in these professions cannot be measured in hours is inherently the reason that they are salaried and not hourly.

No, the reason is so that they can be kept in the office more than 40 hours/week without any additional pay.
Suppose you turn on two factor authentication, and then something happens to the phone number you used for it. Does that mean you've effectively lost your Gmail account? (Not a rhetorical question. I don't know how or whether you can lose a cell phone number - as opposed to just the physical phone, which presumably shouldn't be a problem - but that doesn't necessarily mean it can't happen.)

If there is such a scarcity of software engineers as companies claim, then what haystack?
I suppose I should have clarified. I didn't pay attention to any of the AAPL news or reportings. I was trying to describe how something objectively 'good' by normal standards could be construed as 'disappointing' to the market. I didn't mean to imply this was the case with AAPL, but I suppose the context of my post makes my intention ambiguous.
I agree with everything you just wrote, and I'm 23.

Either something's wrong with me, or something's wrong with this profession.
I would assume anything obvious to the eye would have been detected by previous algorithms and updates. Matt Cutts is implying there is a NEW update that both those sites will get hit from.

This is the second article I have seen in similar form criticizing a funded project for being simple/theoretically easy to make or relying on prefab tech.

Every person on KickStarter has a chance to vet projects and decide for themselves. Most of these people are not professionals promising a slick top of the line product. They are just people who want to make something. Sometimes its a team of well qualified professionals but a lot of the times it is people who just have the desire to do it. Why are people bashing them? Sure, the guy didn't throw it out there that he was not experienced but most people wouldn't. He will probably deliver what he promised.

In my early days, I did more than a few tutorials to complete clients objectives.I refined it and refined it before they ever saw it.But at the end of the day, I learned it and made it my own. I think tech-savvy people tend to judge here but a lot of these backers have no clue how to even begin thinking about how to make a game. To them, it may not matter.

Besides who knows, I bet the backers are just aching for a Ron Paul platformer and thats all they heard when they watched the video.

I've checked it and yes, it connects to SSL'd mozilla update servers (like firefox did on it's own in the past)
The certificates appears to be pinned (so it doesn't trust "any" valid cert, only these very certs)
Then the downloaded update appears to be a mar signed file (then again firefox did that on it's own in the past too)

If a Firefox exploit drops an exe, it will never run with admin rights. It'd have to be coming from Mozilla and signed by Mozilla. Plus, it'd have to come from their servers, because you can't just drop the exe and have it installed, the updater only trust what it downloads on it's own.

Correct. The ground reference stations multiplex their data to the WAAS satellite, which then pushes the data on WAAS-specific channels (hence, why your GPS receiver specifically needs to be built to support WAAS)
Referring to this:

"I've been saying it for a while: the publishing industry right now is where the music industry was ~3 years ago. The cycle is going to be exactly the same. At one point big music figured out that removing DRM let them sell more songs, and they finally dropped it. It looks like publishers are starting to realize the same thing. "
But creativity would involve being some kind of artists, or scientists, or other things that modern neoliberal capitalism has no desire to support.

A few suggestions.

I'd avoid a maximal test as a basis for your decision. It's fine to test to make sure a potential intern has the technical knowledge to succeed, but studies have shown that given a familiarity with the subject, real world ability is largely not correlated with being able to do really well on a test of how fast/smart they are on a test. What seems to be a good predictor is something called grit... Basically how well a person deals with setbacks, keeps moving, perseveres etc. You should ask about setbacks and challenges they have faced and how they dealt with them.

I recall that there are grit assessment tools like questionnaires; I know West Point recently began to use one for it's cadet applicants. There may be one available online.

Remember that good hackers may be introverted, shy, or lack social skills. People have inherent biases against such people, tending to think of them as less intelligent and capable. Also remember that people have a bias and will rate more attractive people as smarter, more competent etc.
Try to be aware of these inherent biases. so you pick the best candidate on their ability and merits.

Hope that is helpful.

Hustler = Hacker for bizdev at Elastic
The hustler is the hacker of the business world. At Elastic, the
hustler gets the same treatment as engineers do in the rest of the
valley. The hustler is given the room and challenge to grow to their
full potential, and the responsibility to train and support fellow
hustlers. They have access to free snacks, free lunch, free drinks as
well as having access to some of the best hackers in the valley.

What is Elastic doing?
We offer startups sales as a service. Think of us as AWS for sales.

What does a Hustler do at Elastic?
Hustles for top startups in the valley. Helps develop and cultivate
their business models, and builds a team of more hustlers to fuel
growth for that startup.

We currently work with both YC and non-YC startups, and our vision is simple:
Never let a good product fail simply for a lack of sales.

Many of our hustlers have engineering degrees but there is only one
test to apply:
The burning internal desire to be your best, and the capacity to learn
and grow to achieve that result.

Tell us why we should hire you in the subject line, and send us your
contact info in the body of an email to: hustlers@elasticinc.com
Thanks, I'm glad you like the site! You make a lot of good points. Here are some thoughts/questions:

Regarding adding social proof to the site, I'm thinking that the non-post pages need a slightly different sidebar with an extra box forsocial buttons. The posts themselves have four social buttons on the left, so you see how many people like the post rather than how many people like our Facebook page. Do you think it would be overkill/confusing to have both on the same page?

I definitely agree that the date archives aren't all that useful for most people. I know a lot of sites have those and I'm guessing that it's so there's an easy way for someone to browse every post from the beginning of the site. This would only appeal to the most obsessed readers, so maybe it's better to just leave that out. To be honest, almost no one clicks on the archives so that's not near the top of my list of things to address, but I'll definitely keep your advice in mind for when I get to it.

As for the CMS, it's a homemade system. I know most people think it's crazy not to use an existing CMS like WordPress, but I like working on little side projects like this. It also made it really easy to build some cool customization like the recipe printing feature. You're right that I made a mess of the permalinks. That format is a holdover from a much earlier version of the CMS that I didn't bother to improve before launching The Yummy Life. I've added that to my list of things to address in the future.

Thanks again for all the feedback!
I wouldn't be interested in something like this.

Having two devices for me is a feature rather than a burden. If I'm using my phone, someone else can use the ipad. I can also talk on the phone while browsing on the tablet. Two devices is a good thing for me. The weight of both is negligible, so I'm not worried about carrying both around.

Additionally, there is something to be said for the convenience of having a big screen to view things on. If I'm reviewing comps, it's a lot easier on the ipad precisely because of the 10" screen.

> most undergrads get into CS to write software, not to learn "theory" or "compiler design"

The flip side is also that an undergraduate enrolls into a CS class, discovers (so it's not their bag before enrollment) that "compiler design" is far more exciting and intelectually challenging than developing typical business/CRUD apps, only to find out after graduation that such jobs barely exist. Yes, let's dispense with academic CS departments.

Maybe the message you tried to convey is that attending mediocre CS courses is much worse than attending good SE courses. That I agree with, but I do not agree that SE should be totally devoid of theory.

I think another problem might be how he claims "the game is designed, programmed, conceived, and produced by me," and then it is revealed that he is doing some pretty shady things with reusing sprites.
Plus since he is following a tutorial to make it is likely going to end up with code that is pretty similar to the tutorials code, and that might have interesting implications depending on what the tutorials author said could be done with the code from it.

But this is all hearsay, this might all just be place-holder graphics, he might just be using the tutorial to learn quickly and then remake everything from scratch. We don't know yet. However, if it is place-holder graphics, why remake Waluigi at all instead of just using him completely for testing...

The problem with such a service is that your typical client would be the sort of person that doesn't pay for anything. An interesting technical challenge but hardly a viable business opportunity.
The problem in using multiple services is split between pricing, limitations, and to a certain extent attack surface area.

If you start using lesser and lesser known services, the greater the potential threat of odd limitations (SkyDrive's 2gb file size limit, for instance), and especially apparent, a greater surface area for compromising someone's stuff. Trusting 7 companies with data, each secured with a (hopefully different) password is just too big of a risk to practically take. I'm slowly switching to Google Drive for most of my important stuff (I have my eclipse workspace in Dropbox) as a result of two factor and a proven track record of not being compromised. I keep raising the point, but Dropbox has already made this mistake once (http://news.cnet.com/8301-31921_3-20072755-281/dropbox-confi...). Though they're very likely more secure as a result, I'd be hesitant to trust any company lesser known than them for security.

When it comes down to it, a lot more goes into choosing a space provider than just the amounts offered free - making a decision on that alone is bound to lead down troublesome paths.

Unfollowing everybody who doesn't follow you is a sign that you don't actually follow people to read them, but instead follow people to generate spammy emails and increase your followers count.

Some people get agitated by this behaviour because either:

1. They are only willing to receive follow emails about people who are actually going to read their content - otherwise it's effectively spam

2. High following counts are a quick signal to help ignore spammy email, but spammy people mitigate this by unfollowing people who didn't follow back due to their spammy emails

If you'd like to clean up your following list to make it more readable, I'd suggest unfollowing a handful of high-volume tweeters, or using a tool like my Unladen Follow http://www.unladenfollow.com/.
