All compiler structures are sitting in memory waiting to be used. The internal data-structure for compiled classes is available. It's not too bad. Just to make it interesting, I added meta-data to the C+ syntax. You can put format strings into the class definition and other data. Then, you can write code which uses the compiler data applied on members of a class.

My thought was that switching files to work on resources is bad and the resource info should be in the source code class defintiin.

Traditionally, we'll apply typographic styles to elements like strong, em, p, ul, h1, h2, h3 etc, in the global scope. We are adding these styles to the elements globally. We think to ourselves "we're using the cascade!" and wrongly thinking that we're saving lines of code in the long run.

So the argument is to only style individual blocks of text, instead of saying "All H1 elements everywhere on this page will have this style". His "copy" class removes all typographical styling, so whatever styles you apply to a block will work without having to remove e.g. bullets from a list manually every time. (edited)

Great idea and execution! The Go Pro option to autofill LinkedIn seems very odd. When a user is completing a crucial first step, such as filling out the necessary resume info, you should make that process as simple as possible, such as using LinkedIn info, even if it means free. I came to the predicament early on and decided between going pro and not completing the fields at all. I think you're going to lose a lot of people at this point. Instead going pro should be for versions (word/pdf) and analytics after the fact, when the user already has a great impression of the service and has already received the minimum level of satisfaction to continue using it.

Here's my online resume/portfolio: http://www.ideaember.com/resume & http://www.ideaember.com/portfolio I use piwik (http://piwik.org/) for analytics on it.

That would be a really useful addition.

There are some smart[3] people on HN. I think it should be possible for someone to have an Earth globe, with a sidebar of statistically correct, usefully laid out information that the user asks for - how much alcohol is produced each year vs how much soya, or gold vs copper vs uranium; people living on less than $2USD per day vs people with average income of $20; amount of energy used by renewables and non renewables; amount of CO2 produced vs amount able to be 'sunk'; etc. Some data would need to be retrieved from other places (with sources given.) Caveats for biases and inaccuracies would need to be clear.

You'd monetise it by selling it to Wolfram Alpha.

My friend was a waiter and told me the trick they used to keep from spilling the glasses they carried out was to waver the tray a bit to the left and right in a steady rhythm as they walked, which according to this probably disrupts the natural oscillation of the liquids and creates a new, more stable pattern.

Exactly. There's no loyalty. Users won't hang around unless they've put something in the pot. Zynga knows this though, since it's the whole premise behind their initial success.
> why oh why don't CPU designers put a damned memory-copy instruction into the machine?

x86 has had REP MOVSB since forever, complete with a directional flag so you can handle the cases where the source and destination regions overlap. But it went out of favor since for a while from 80386 to early Pentium processors (when Linux was written), REP MOVSx was slower than writing an explicit memcopy loop.

That said, such an instruction would seem to go against RISC philosophies, where you want your operations to be small and atomic and predictable in terms of time and resource consumption.

Play! Framework.

I've been using it for over a year and I have to say it's the most "rails like" framework out there for Java.

However they have just released play! 2.0 (which I have not used yet). This makes some major changes to the framework and it's not all backward compatible.

I does have a heavy emphasis on Scala now, but you can still code everything using Standard Java if you want, although it does somewhat butcher Java "best practices".

it's default ORM is JPA/Hibernate which works well enough as it gives you a ton of helper functions, it even automatically creates getter/setter method at runtime allowing you to do C# Style properties simply by declaring entity members as public.
I can remember the time I used bloglines and had over 1000+ feeds. It got to be a chore—at the time I believed that I needed to read everything and set myself up for failure. Now I treat them as periodic inspiration and brain-fodder on-demand for whatever the hive-mind of the Internet has top-of-mind that day. With feeds roughly classified, I'm using Feedly as my "newspaper" of interesting things.

I'm not saying, "Just ask the customer."

I'm saying that to discover if there is a market for your products, you need to study the people you think are in your target audience through direct interviews. And then get them to agree to buying something once you have it ready.

This is a good proxy precisely because you are marketing it to them. Understanding a customer's needs, showing how your product will fit the need, and then getting a commitment is basically a direct sales process.

Was it before or after your third degree that you decided education is such a poor investment?

I didn't claim that a degree is a poor investment for individuals, I claim that the signalling aspect of education is harmful to society. Please try to actually understand an argument before disputing it.

Incidentally, I concluded that education is primarily signalling while I was selling it. I left academia in part because I felt I was creating very little value.

Is there any cheap & easy webhosting available for Python?

Occasionally I get commisioned to build small websites ( < 50 visitors per day) and for that I want to be able to build the site in a day or two.

I don't want the hassle/expense of having to setup and run VPS/AWS infastructure. I just want to give someone a bunch of files and say "sign up for some cheap webhosting, ask them to give you a DB called X and upload these".

I usually end up just doing it in PHP, but it has always felt like a poor reason to choose a language with so many warts.
Another potential possibility:

Ubuntu Firefox is Mozilla's Firefox coupled with arbitrary modifications by the Ubuntu developers. In principle I respect Ubuntu's position and desire to make things right by their users.

But in practice, having been in the same relationship as an author of Chrome for Linux I can tell you that it's always dangerous to have people who aren't browser developers make modifications to a browser. More than once the Ubuntu Chromium packager made changes to Chrome that were harmful for users because they didn't understand the consequences of their changes.
You can't express memcpy in hardware any more efficiently than you can in C because of the way memory controllers work. It'd end up being microcoded, and ARM can't afford that for the same reason it can't afford unaligned access.

I think x86 does have a microcoded memcpy (rep stos) but efficiency varies.

It's not (only) a symbol of wealth. Within limits, any reasonably classy watch will do. But wearing one is self-selecting into a certain group - someone who cares about the details, cares about time, wants to make a good impression.

I don't want to overstate the point, but I definitely notice a nice timepiece, just like I notice well cut clothes, cufflinks, good shoes, neat hair, an elegant piece of jewellery, any number of things people can do to make an effort. It's signalling, and it does make a difference, for better or worse.
It certainly wasn't where it would be an easy distinct name to search.
I think the Pro and free version should be reversed. Curious people who want to try it out and get their resume up and running and seconds could just import from linkedIn. Pro users who want to fuss over the details should pay the $10.

How it is now doesn't make much sense. I'm not going to pay the $10 until I see it in action. And if I input all the info myself, then by that point I won't need to import from linkedIn.

While it may be true that the old processor costs Apple more to build than the new models I strongly believe that they didn't want to test the device again.

The device worked as it is and it will work in the next year as it worked so why should we change it? No costs on this side to find.
We can argue about costs and which of them would be higher but either way I think they choose the way which fits Apple best.

Apple wants to mess with new stuff and not with old already gone low-end model phones.

I don't know how non-tech-users see the nexus. I never seen one have it. I don't know why but it seem that the majority was bought by techies compared to a 3 GS which was bought from all kind of people including a lot of females which argue "I don't need the latest stuff".
Reality check time. In most Therevada Buddhist countries, Buddhism is closer to a religion than it is to a phylosophy.

To go even further, the western world has a very romantic view of Buddhism and strong opinion on what is and what is not Buddhism. In many Buddhist countries, you'll simply be answered "mind your own business and respect my faith."

> Trying acting less like what you think a Buddhist is and more like Buddha would.

How about you do that too?

> Buddha would not feel insulted by a cartoon of a Buddha

You seem to know a lot about Buddha's opinions on things that concern him.

Either way, the point is not Buddha but the fact that the picture is touching a sensible thing for millions of potential customers which, marketing-wise, is not a good idea.

I don't understand your comment - are you saying "ele" doesn't have enough info to find the next node?

You need an Iterator type that has the address of the previous and current nodes, in addition to your existing node / Element type.

LinkedList<Element> list = new XORLinkedList(Collections.fromArray(arrayList));
Iterator<Element> it = list.get(4); //now you can access it.element for data from index 4
it.next(); // now access it.element for data from index 5

There appears to be currently ongoing some sort of shift in web development.

At the top end of the scale , people are creating more sophisticated "app like" websites that use sophisticated platforms like AWS and "serious" programming like Scala/Java/Ruby/Python/jQuery etc. Because once you have decided to invest serious money in your web development you want to use the best tech you can and build a very "bespoke" online experience.

However at the lower end, sites that would have 5 years ago been build using static HTML with a smattering of PHP and be run on low end shared hosting are being devoured by various platforms. For example rather than hire a webdesigner you can have a facebook fan page or wordpress blog for free (possibly paying someone to customise the CSS in a template for you). As another example in my area there are various services aimed at the takeaway business that provide a turnkey website with an online menu, opening hours, maps etc.

To be honest, working in the low end of the web dev market has always been a nightmare as this is where you will get shaky clients who can't articulate what they want and hardly want to pay anything for it.

If I was going to go back into website development for a business I would be far more interested in finding common requirements for a particular market segment and building something turnkey to sell to 1000+ customers at $20-100 per month where they can upload their own logo and change a bit of the CSS.
It would be interesting if the market ends uP developing into a series of PACs around targeted issues. I would definitely donate to a PAC whose sole reason for existence is to punish lawmakers who try pass these anti-Internet laws like SOPA. I would also donate to an anti-corruption PAC.

I actually like the idea of being able to donate to targeted causes a la carte.
You're talking as if Apple continues production on the 3GS. Do they really, or do they access old stock? I'm genuinely asking as I don't know - I had assumed they accessed old stock.
Tried the site on Safari and Chrome (Snow Leopard) and it didn't really work, I could only select Rails, couldn't customise any options. Seems like a nice idea, and hopefully it's just some weird issue my end.
This is based on my personal experience and those of a few friends at non-IIT colleges.

I know some great teachers too. But, the majority of the teachers are just wasting their time as well as those of their students. There is no love for the subject they teach.

"While I agree that a lot of educational institutes in India suffer from under-qualified or uninspired teaching - I do not believe that it is the core reason of all that is wrong with the education system."

Finding a core reason for the maladies of Indian educational system is a never-ending exercise. But, a lot of problems will be solved if we have more inspired teachers.

I'm sorry but I can't continue to take your suggestion that "global typographic styles suck" when you advocate using:

.copy * { margin:0 0 $text-baseline 0; }

There is nothing wrong with correct use of cascading styles. If you are finding that you are constantly changing the styles, then you are doing it wrong and making poor choices in your inheritance/"super" selector.

(While, on the topic, you know that CSS selectors/rules are applied and read, from right to left. This is how the inheritance works. Using your "reset" would mean that you are slowing down the CSS rendering considerably by matching * wildcard, and then limiting the selector to only .copy elements. It's probably the biggest single anti-pattern in CSS. Don't do it.

A full etymology would certainly be interesting, but I was trying to stick to the subject matter at hand.

Again, in the context of security, 'known' -- at least as far as I've ever heard it used -- is shorthand for known to the security-minded public and/or to the vendor. It could be known to a million black-hats writing a million exploits and that still counts as 'unknown' until the day someone discloses it to the wider public and/or the vendor.
It's worth noting since iOS 5 and 10.7, Apple includes the NSJSONSerialization class which I've seen to be much faster than 3rd party libs, and are now "the way" to decode JSON in obj-c.

As far as using something like JSON (in a general key/value sense) in a TCP stream, to disk, etc., I have some bias towards using something a friend made called "KeyedBits" up on Github.

(In fairness, I think what he's really getting at is that dealing with Unicode in languages that were created before it became ubiquitous sucks, not Unicode itself. But if you start off your discussion of Unicode with the statement that "Unicode sucks", you shouldn't be surprised if people think your beef is with Unicode rather than with the tools we use to deal with it.)
