It doesn't matter if a professor at Kellogg thinks it's worth 25 billion, as long as enough investors think it's worth 100 billion (as is the case today).

It is a different matter, though, if a large fraction of those who think it is worth 100 billion is just Morgan Stanley. Then there is definitely a problem.

Use your programming language of choice to work exercises in whatever set of concepts and exercises you feel works best for you.

Learn the tools of your language really well. If there's a REPL available, get in the habit of using it. Learn the debugger and use it a lot. Debuggers are not just for debugging, they also help you step through a program and see how it really works.

EDIT: Learn a good programmer's editor (Vim or Emacs or Notepad++ or any simple text editor (but not Notepad)), or learn a good IDE (Eclipse, or whatever works for your language). There is a lot of argument over which editor, and editor vs IDE. Whatever works best for you is the correct answer, especially at this stage.

Write. A lot. Of code.

It appears you're suggesting a structure of a business, where the owner isn't leasing to an unrelated party. An employer is liable for the actions of his employees (even non-employee employees) through entirely separate and much more appropriate channels.

One minor comment: the text in the screenshots is very hard to read without enlarging, and looks blurry at least in iTunes on my mac. I would make the font a little bigger, perhaps like Textastic or even slightly bigger.

Also, the bright green for the comments is a little too... bright.

This is minor stuff but it affects the first impression a perspective customer might have. An easy fix though. =)
This should be the top comment. This article seems to be playing games with the numbers. Why do they choose to focus on the fraction of the unemployed? This trend could just be explained by greater numbers of people attending some amount of college relative to the past. They should really show the fraction of college educated unemployed, vs fraction without college educated unemployed, but that wouldn't fit their narrative.
This is very true. I grew up (and still live) in the mission, and being a first generation Salvadorian, I was very much immersed in the Latin culture of the mission up until the mid 2000's. Even though the drop in crime and everything is nice, it really just doesn't even feel at home anymore...

I think it's great that techies are discovering this awesome neighborhood (having grown up a techy myself), but given my background, I still can't help feeling a bit mixed about it, especially when I see fellow techies being completely dismissive/oblivious about my culture like the author of this post here...

I would guess this was initiated by IT employees (open sourcing the library might make life easier for them, assuming someone outside the company contributes) and approved by top managers (because it's good for recruitment and makes their IT staff happier).

However I would doubt this will make a big difference when attracting top talent. One important reason for that being (IMO) that the best IT people prefer innovative technologies and GS uses a proprietary in-house programming language and db for everything that's important. Some say their tech was perhaps innovative 25 years ago http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3392636/slang-goldman-sac... .

Not to mention that if you work for GS you lock yourself in those in-house techs. When I went to a job interview at GS and asked what the advantages of using an in-house language and db were, I was told that it's very hard to hack their systems, because no one else uses them (Not sure how valid this argument actually is though).
I'd personally feel more comfortable putting my car into a car-share pool if I had to transfer the title to the pool in exchange for payouts and some kind of guarantee of a way to get the title of my car back to me should I want to retake ownership. Shouldn't this alleviate the personal liability issue? The deaths involved are most certainly a tragedy, but I find it impossible to fault Ms. Fong for any wrongdoing.

Untethered jailbreak iOS 5.1.1 a matter of days for being released
Because the power of electromagnetic radiation (energy per unit area perpendicular to the source) drops off proportional to the inverse square of the distance. So, at one unit away it's a reference for full power, at two units it's at one-quarter power, and three units it's at one-ninth power, and so on. This is the fatal flaw with Tesla's scheme: By simple geometry, you're pouring power into space and you need massive input to get any output at all at an appreciable distance.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse-square_law

The WiTricity project you may hear of does things based on a completely different technical footing, which is more efficient but less broadly useful. For example, with the WiTricity technology, power receivers can't be any more than a quarter-wavelength from the transmitter, which means that they can't be any further away than a few meters. Definitely not what Tesla had in mind.
It doesn't matter what nationality the company has, but rather the laws of the countries where it operates.
My opinion is that the reason conflicts of interest are suboptimal is not mainly that they tend to cause people to lie about their beliefs, but rather that they tend to cause people to truly believe that which would benefit them if true.

In other words, the presence of an extreme conflict of interest causes me to take anything the person says with a large grain of salt, but does not, to me, cast doubt on a person's good faith.

More generally, as a matter of etiquette, it seems to me that (a heuristic that encourages people not to assume good faith in response to evidence that does not include any implication of unethical behavior) is unwise. For example, the evidence here is that, "he would have been a Carnegie or a Rockefeller had DC been adopted," which is not, in itself, unethical. Therefore one should not, on the basis of this evidence alone, assume good faith any less than one did prior to this evidence.

This really isn't the secret that people claim it is. If you actually look at rents in all of the above places, they're all just as high. SOMA is generally more expensive because it's the only neighborhood where you can find new high-rises. Victorian-to-Victorian, all of the transit-connected areas as in the same ballpark.

And Noe is even more expensive than the rest, since it's developed its own reputation as a great place to raise kids.

To be certain, nothing in a transit-connected part of SF is "half the price" of SOMA, unless you're doing a dodgy comparison like an uber-luxe condo in the Millenium Tower with a basement studio. Apples to apples, everything in SF is in the same ballpark, with the Sunset and Richmond being only marginally cheaper.

His movement has quite a big impact in GOP right now. They are replacing people in local GOP parties with their own. Even if Ron Paul doesn't win now, whoever will be their candidate in 2016 or even for the next Congress elections, will have a very high chance of winning.

You may or may not like the libertarian views, but I'd say they'd be a huge improvement to the current religious conservatives, the neo-conservatives who want more wars and bigger military budgets, and the general corruption within GOP.
Absolutely. My favourite is still watch ads - when I realised the watch hands are always (99% of the time) at 10 and 2 - it looks smiley - seeing a watch ad with hands in a different position was very jarring. Odd, isn't it?
The problem with Gary Johnson is that when it comes to the financial crisis he's too close to the status quo. His position is that nobody did anything illegal, so no prosecutions, etc.

That's demonstrably false, and the lack of S&L-like prosecutions is a symptom of governmental capture/crony capitalism, and its consequent moral hazard is something we'll paying for sooner or later.

From that perspective, Ron Paul and/or Bill Still > Gary Johnson.

I used to think on similar lines, that at some point there wouldn't be enough work to do. But it's absolutely Utopian horseshit.

There is ALWAYS useful work to do sometimes there's just of shortage of funds or skilled workers to do it. Look at our aging infrastructure, fix our bridges, tunnels, roads, buildings, houses, etc. Care for our old and sick, learn art and design and make the world more beautiful, engineer spaceships, create amazing entertainment, etc. etc.

Don't confuse market inefficiency with a lack of useful things to do.

I work in a non-programming office. My team actually just has a large room with two tables in the middle of it, that we set ourselves up at. When we're hard at work, we look a lot like the Scoble picture of the "Facebook war room" [1].

Most of our tasks are either very individual and require good mental flow (like programming), or are done in pairs. The open layout let's us communicate when we need a pair. We also have designed our workflow so that almost all of the tasks we complete can be done by any member of the team. If someone is bored or sick of what they are doing, they can just bounce on to another task, as long as it doesn't screw up the timeline. If two people are bored, they usually just...swap.

We're able to keep a level of friendly camaraderie really easily. We all hear what is going on, so when someone needs to pick up the slack on a project, we all know the requirements.

It works well. But everyone on my team is the sort of person who it'd work well for.

If you've had a bad high school experience, please do not generalize to the entirety of the US.

Ron Paul will never be president. And he was never going to be president.

It's not just that he's too intellectual and not suave and good-looking enough. It's that he actually wants to run the government. The bureaucracy, the intellectuals, the press, and monied business interests don't want to see a more innovative, more free, and more forward-looking country. They like preserving the power they have just fine, thank you.

And the press, the academy, and big business have enough influence over public opinion to prohibit anyone they really don't like from winning power.

The purpose of sending money to Ron Paul and voting for Ron Paul is to move the Overton Window. [1]

The day that someone like Ron Paul can win the presidency, there will be dozens like him running and he won't seem like a special shining light. The thing that does make Paul special is that he is running when it's impossible to win but still possible for things to change.

There are several ways to resolve your situation, few of which you will find palatable... which really sucks:

- Rent a less desirable place. Desirable places in SF will have easily 20 people lined up out front, with the landlord taking his/her pick of the crowd based on income, credit, and references - and as a recent grad you will lose on all 3 counts.

- Seek roommate situations. Houses are more flexible about all of the above criteria and care more about personality, this is where you might have an edge (I don't know, I don't know you at all).

- Live outside the city. This is going to be a real bummer sometimes - your friends will want to hang out in the Mission till the crack of dawn, but you'd have to hop the BART or Caltrain before midnight to get home. But places outside SF proper experience far, far, far less competition.

And here's the one that works, but really stinks:

- Offer to pay more than face value of apartment. This is just insult upon injury - but it does work. Odds are, if you have a Unreasonably Wealthy Startup Guy(tm) viewing the apartment with you, he/she will bid the apartment up. It's become more and more common, and that's incredibly depressing.

iSSH & VIM should be pretty sound. I don't know about Emacs, there may be more difficulties since it Vim doesn't use the command and meta keys so much. This guy does all his coding from Vim in iSSH:

http://yieldthought.com/post/12239282034/swapped-my-macbook-...

I understand your point about the small market, but if the target audience is developers, then I think that VIM or Emacs compatible keybindings (if only a small subset for movement and selection) are an attractive feature. On the Mac, SublimeText and AppCode, both beloved editors, feature Vim Bindings. And even some of the Cloud Editors (like Ace or Cloud9) have Vim bindings.

I hope it's just a matter of time until the first iPad editor with bindings comes out - and I'll buy right away :)

Meh. If he's not in it to win, I don't see the point. Sure, nothing gets handed to you on a silver platter, positive national media coverage in particular, but that doesn't mean it's impossible, it just means you need a very creative strategy. Paul doesn't have that.
I pay $2,000/mo for three very spacious bedrooms in Dublin, and I'm to work in SoMa in about an hour on BART (with an empty inbox!). Not to mention Dublin is an absolutely wonderful place to live for suburban types, like married couples. It's really depressing that discussions like this revolve around the city only.

There is an entire world of commuter residences all around San Francisco, and people figured out how to commute to San Francisco long before the tech boom (and most people wanting to live in the city) existed. Dublin/Pleasanton is the extreme, but there's also Castro Valley on my same line, a whole shitload of Oakland like Lake Merritt, and if you take the Pittsburg/Bay Point a whole bunch up there, too. Take off the San Francisco blinders and take advantage of the commute options that were built long before this industry.

It feels like people moving to San Francisco now treat it like New York City, where living in New Jersey and commuting in tends to suck. So most people focus on the boroughs, and landlords take advantage of them. San Francisco's out-of-town situation is far better, and I don't regret choosing a place an hour out of town at all.

Sometimes Tab works, sometimes it doesn't, in the way you've suggested. Again, I must be missing something/blunder on my part. It's sporadic when it works. For instance, on OS X, one can "Change the way Tab movies focus".

The "viewport" being the container of the Web page (or the container of your current DOM "window"), underneath your address bar or bookmarks. Basically, the Web page itself. I'm using the term "viewport" since, ideally, I don't truly want to Tab into the Web page itself because this assumes I want some element in the page, like a link. I'm prefer to be able to Tab to the "viewport" (Web page) and simply scroll, say, or use vimium commands. But more often than not, when I Tab from the address bar, I get either the bookmarks bar or the apps bar (Chrome). Firefox gives me similar behavior.

For the most part, I'm trying to determine if this is a limitation of OS X or a limitation of each particular browser.
