Perhaps it's the type of design projects that are undertaken and the work style of the designer.

In the situations where a designer provided .psds for me to transform into html/css, no I haven't had to modify anything. But then, the iteration on the design happens with the other guy, and he does it in photoshop. If a change happens, he just sends me the new asset images, and I just replace them in the repo.

The times where I'm the one doing the design work, I end up switching things up a lot. This is because I don't do my design work in photoshop, but rather in the browser with actual html/css. So even while I'm iterating on something by myself (before having even shown the client anything), I'll switch colors up constantly trying to get something I'm okay with.

What barriers are they facing? As an owner of an Apple device, can they not sign up for Dropbox at all? Not being able to signup for a competing service that can involve a financial transaction is not anticompetitive if the consumer has other means, whit they do. Indeed if the consumer goes to the Dropbox website using Safari browser of their own volition, the can sign up immediately.

The issue here is one of sensationalism. As a community, we a far too quick to jump to the "$corp is evil!" conclusion without looking for a reason, however ridiculous it may seem. We, as a community, are too cynical for own good.

Anecdote: A professor once told me he read that whole essay after I referenced it in a paper for an addictions Psych class and he loved it.

But yes, I agree, I am leaning towards what PG is saying there for sure as I think it speaks to a lot of the mockery of the original article as many see the issues for what they really are.
It would be, except we're talking about prognostication, not some testable attribute of reality. We all continue to exist equally ignorant of what will happen tomorrow.
The article is satire in response to this: http://www.theverge.com/2012/4/30/2988798/paul-miller-year-w...

Perhaps a mod could add Satire to the thread title to avoid the confusion.
2012 Ford Shelby GT500 Vs 2012 Ford Mustang V6
Price conscious people often prefer Convertibles because such vehicles offer them performance, luxury and high-tech features at a reasonable price in one package. Ford vehicles are known for high-end performance and its convertibles are among the most comfortable vehicles in the world. Varity of convertibles offered by Ford often confuse people-what to choose and what to drop. Following is the comparison of two most demanding convertibles of Ford i.e. 2012 Ford Shelby GT500 and 2012 Ford Mustang.

Not really as its very simple assertion. Apple do not have a monopoly. They control a segment of a rather large, and competitive marketplace. To say that they have a monopoly over their products is not a cogent statement as every manufacturer has such a 'monopoly'. The EU laws that you are referring to concern the abuse of a dominant position in a market, something which Apple as we are all too often reminded do not have.

The fact remains semantically and legally that you a monopoly of the segment or niche of a market is not possible. A company can be abusive (which is what you mean when you say monopoly - something which in and of itself isn't illegal), but unless they control the significant majority of the whole the it is legally not an issue. Morally is different debate.
I am puzzled as to why there is a a dispatch() method. Isn't the serve() method enough?

Also, both the Inbox constructor and the serve() method takes the listening port and address. Now I need to read the source code in order to figure out where I should put the port number and what happens if I put in two different port numbers. (insert appropriate sort of unhappy smiley)

I believe my feedback to Kenneth (if he even sees this) is that this SMTP server can be even simpler.
Good stuff guys
Hey Ahsan,

Sorry about that, things got a little hectic and it just slipped my mind. Sending you an email right now.
I find this article to be quite frustrating. It's like reading about how some process was too slow, so they looked at the variables which include a faster processor, more RAM, and larger storage. Ultimately, they chose more RAM and developed a new algorithm and all was solved. But then they never tell you what the algorithm is. Or why it allowed them to keep within the constraints of the same processor and storage.

In this case, it's a new adhesive. But how was that developed? What makes the new adhesive better suited to high-pressure applications while keeping the temperature and time constant? Inquiring geeks want to know!
Doesn't matter? Were they abusive? Did the new enterprise fix prices or stop competitors entering the whole market (Apple are not stopping consumers from signing up for Dropbox, just not through the App Store)?
hilarious stuff!
you should also consider logging your last 3 hours of reading and post it online, like how your targeted audience for this post of yours just recently did! :D

Ah yes the I'm giving up_______ trend. I said the same thing in the post Paul Miller made.

If I could I would up-vote this post twice at least! And it is not the Java, node.js, where-do-you-put-your-semicolon part of it. I don't undersand any of it. No, it is more the view on best practices. And there, I completely agree.

I'm part of HN not for very long, but what strikes me are the similarities between supply chain management and programming in some aspects. The purely technical issues are out of scope here since I cannot judge them, it's more about the principles behind. Like in this case here.

Best pratices provide a guideline and are condensed experience. They are by no means the only or best solutions, rather ones that can be applied in a lot of cases withou screwing up. That said, one should also reach a point where understand them. One has to in order to understand when to use them, most people get at least to that point.

What you actually have to do is reach an understanding of not only when to use best practices but one of knowing why you use them. This is not true mastery, but it will get you far enough.

Ultimately, you need people who know when to use a best pratice, when to ignore them and when to actually brek conventional wisdom. What I see a lot lately is people doing the last to bits without having understood the best pratice's when and why in the first place.

For me, that's the key message of this post, and this point is valid in every industry, sector or task at hand.
Thanks for the feedback :)

The dispatch method is for deferring to cli arguments for external configuration (say, a Procfile).

The constructor is used for defaults.
I'm your age, I agree, and I'll take it a step further. I think these toys are causing an irrational exuberance.

I'm upset at all the polish, all the ten thousand variations on the same silly theme. They do nothing to advance our civilization. It's disheartening.

It's 2012, so why doesn't my OS know what I'm trying to do and solve problems for me? I wish this money and effort had gone into making a desktop environment that automatically tiled windows for whatever mental intent I have, removing any need for me to mentally do that. Why doesn't the environment know the type of task each process represents? Why can't it learn how I like to set windows up in response to any given input sequence and do that?

Another problem I have--Why do we need 'blogs' and 'websites'? We just share text, images, and video. Let's make a baseline platform for authoring, reading, commenting, sharing, upvoting, editing. Let's make it a hybrid of federated and p2p; articles get a real URI/URN and can be pulled from any server. No need for readability since it would be 'built-in': read everything in your favorite theme / font. Build an interest graph of users on top of this and you have an extensible solution ten times better than Prismatic; a testbed for every ML algorithm and recommendation algorithm we can think of. And it's software everyone can run/extend! Why the hell didn't we build that instead?

Maybe it's just my biology side getting through, but websites suck. Centralization sucks. We got it right with the PC, with the OS, with the internet, with web protocols, but seriously--websites were a step backwards. We stopped making general solutions and began reimplementing the same damn things over and again. Why? Progress just stopped.

I'm not smart enough to solve these problems / I don't research in these areas. I just hope to contribute meaningfully to metabolomics research. If this is something that irks you too, I dunno. Maybe we should get in touch. I'm just so fed up with the status quo / present paradigm.

Working with Lamson is a very good experience.

Our Lamson project has been running for 3 years. It was fun to write, it stays up when we need it to - and it’s easy to modify when we need new features.

This is the only piece of python we have running in-house - we’re a pair of coders and both of us had had very bad experiences with Python (in the distant past - 2002 for me). It’s done quite a lot to rehabilitate python’s reputation here :)

As a developer, instead of "oooOOh" i tend to do an "oh shit" whenever i see another MS API.
To be fair, there are some tiling window managers that basically read your mind with a bit of configuration. And yet people here use OS X instead (actually, I know two people using XMonad on OS X, but they're rare). Make of that what you will.

Now, of course they don't literally read your mind. Instead, there's some easy to write configuration in a nice language (e.g. Haskell) that communicates your thoughts to the manager ahead of time.
How did you evaluate Lamson if you only "heard" of it?

"HTML7 magic on Facebook" http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3922402

It came up to Rank 18 at one point and in the next hour it quickly tumbled out of sight all the way to rank 455. Is this possible? The last time one of my posts hit the front page, it stayed there for at least half a day. What's going on?

Is this some evil conspiracy to keep the news about Facebook using HTML7 away from public knowledge? :)
That is indeed extremely impressive! I hope I didn't come across as meaning that NoSQL solutions aren't appropriate - it's very hard for me to say this anything about these solutions, as I've got next to no experience with this technology.

I am very interested in the first article though. It mentions number of instances in an EC2 availability zone - what does this mean? Is this similar to a clustering/load balanced solutions in traditional RDBMSes?

The automated tooling that Netflix has developed lets us quickly deploy large scale Cassandra clusters, in this case a few clicks on a web page and about an hour to go from nothing to a very large Cassandra cluster consisting of 288 medium sized instances, with 96 instances in each of three EC2 availability zones in the US-East region. Using an additional 60 instances as clients running the stress program we ran a workload of 1.1 million client writes per second.

I think SASS is great for reusing pages or styles within or across projects. If a website has color-coded areas, say like The Guardian[1], then using color variables as the OP mentioned would make it extremely trivial to reuse.

The math behind layouts can also be set using variables reducing a lot of headaches while the client wants 'the left column could be a bit wider'.

I agree that it requires a lot more coding discipline than plain 'ol CSS. So much to the extent that one would be tempted to abandon it. But like all good layers of abstractions, it reduces a lot of effort in the future.

Using code examples in professional software development is like teenage sex
I disagree.

A computer science degree means you've spent 4 years learning computer science, it doesn't mean you know anything about software development. In fact, at a university with a good CS program, it almost certainly guarantees you know nothing about software development: UC Berkeley's CS program has a single optional elective on the subject of software engineering.

Now, there is a high correlation between computer science aptitude and software engineering aptitude, but I wonder if it's just because we've conflated the two because the field is so young. I believe that one can be taught without the other, and that's what we're seeing with these academies.

Consider: on one side, you have someone who spent 720 hours over the course of four years learning Delaunay triangulation and LALR recursive descent parsing, but has never written or architected a greenfield application from scratch.

On the other, you have someone who spent 300 hours over eight weeks building applications, being exposed to good industry practices, learning how to deploy systems, how to use source control, how to use an IDE. Maybe afterwards, they could spend two weeks covering fundamental theory.

Let's be honest, when I go out to interview I do the same thing anyway.

As an employer, the latter would be more immediately useful to me. So you're right, the comparison is ridiculous, and an intense course is not a substitute for a multi-year degree. But stop and ask yourself: is a CS degree the right criteria for admission into the industry in the first place?
