There was a really nice article by Stephen Jay Gould about the paedomorphism of Mickey Mouse; it can be found online (in PDF) http://athmarc.allthingshuman.net/images/PDFs/mickey.pdf

It's a different discussion though; Mickey Mouse is a human creature; in order to appeal to a broader audience it "was evolved" to retain juvenile features.

Birds used paedomorphism for different reasons of course, but it is true that we find them more cute and less threatening than dinosaurs.
Lucid dreaming and related out of body experiences have made me realize that the universe we're in is likely an elaborate illusion. That's because the dreams/OBEs are just as real as here, at least while they last. If you can't distinguish between two things then go ahead and call them equivalent.

I'm not sure this aids me though. On the downside I now think of my existence as eternal (we'll always be experiencing some kind of reality), which promotes procrastination. On the upside I don't need many material things to enjoy myself.

About the lack of evidence of lucid dreaming: you know what they say about absence of evidence. When one has had a full-on lucid dream, no more evidence is needed. It takes only one scientist to do good science. Corroboration isn't a real scientific requirement.
I use it on my mail relay to determine whether a domain is local or not. As this check happens for every incoming RCPT TO (including all the bots checking to see whether I'm an open relay or not), I don't want to hit the database where the accounts are stored just yet.

This is the perfect case for a cdb file: the list of local domains changes very rarely, but lookups happen 100s of times per second.

Granted though, it's a very special case. Aside of this mail case, I've yet to find another real world application.

It is a fairly distinct sound. You could probably scale this out to a bunch of other uses. Detect for; cries for help, cars doing burnouts or loud parties at inappropriate hours. It would combine really well with CCTV if it could alert an operator to look in the area of a sound rather than have to send a patrol out for minor things.
Сompanies have their reign and they die; it's inevitable. (But CocaCola didn't yet die). The problem seems to be that people's fate are too much tied to the fate of their company. Each company can be seen as trial of a business model or product idea; they monetize the idea to the full limit and then they go down.

And each death seems to be a birth for another company; look at Apple's profits and Samsungs growth.

the problem with using an existing stdlib (semantic incompatibilities aside) is that then you end up unable to fix the warts.

Technology won't help police forces become more effective? Strong disagree.

It's not a "police problem." It's a cultural one.
Devices have off switches. People's social expectations don't. For instance, there aren't too many salaried people with enough autonomy to decide that they don't want their bosses e-mailing them after hours, over the weekend, or on vacations and that they're not going to indulge them with prompt replies, regardless of the impact.

Separately, what's with the sarcasm? Do you think that tone makes you more persuasive?

Food that should be taken for Problem Skin
Diet is one of the important things that plays major role in the health of our skin. But, it is not necessary that we should have good food to get benefits to our skin. If you have previously tried some of the expensive medicines and it didn't worked for you than you can try out with some home remedies and solve your problem skin. If you are planning for some camping and beach in this summer, make sure that you take a bottle of vinegar with you. The acid present in the vinegar has got good quality of healing and it can relieve your from problem skin.

I don't agree. The use of I think could be a cheap defense. These are typically followed by "well that's my opinion so nyah".

But I think could also reflect an epistomological stance that only a few things can really be known. As wamatt mentioned, not everyone has the time to build a fortress of logic around everything they say. So the more efficient approach is to state their belief and then offer Just In Time defenses of why they hold these beliefs if the need to justify them is important.

I think this constructive approach is better, in terms of effort and strength, than stating an argument and listing a non exhaustive list of possible exceptions - which is really a dual and more energetic form of the use of I think to ward off objection. Rather than hiding behind a lack of substance, you hide behind too much substance (that may even serve to confuse your main point).
I know this isn't definitive but at least the jury ruled fair use in the GoogleOracle case.

The 21st Floor Wiki Project: opening up scientific research to the public
Lovely Stuff. Could have been great had you mentioned, the good and bad parts of each of them, or probably what one can learn from the other.
1) OpenCL library support is where CUDA was 2 years ago (but devleopment is picking up quick).

-- This means, that the devleopment time will be more because you are going to be writing your own primitive functions which are available as a myriad of libraries in CUDA.

2) OpenCL can run on cpus, gpus and more exotic hardware like FPGAs, Cell Processors.

-- On Large clusters, OpenCL's heterogenous capabilities make it more appealing as opposed to CUDA which will essentially require you to write and maintain two code bases (one in CUDA, the other using pthreads or what have you).

3) OpenCL spec is designed by committee (the Khronos group) as opposed to CUDA (developed by NVIDIA).

-- This means CUDA iterates much more quickly than OpenCL. They also have control over the hardware meaning they can introduce some hardware optimizations that may not become standardized in OpenCL.

4) NVIDIA has opened up CUDA a little, implementations of OpenCL remain closed.

-- NVIDIA has thrust which is kind of open source, but their CUBLAS and CUFFT libraries are closed. They recently Open sourced part of their NVCC compiler and hooked it up with LLVM. The OpenCL impelmentations are vendor specific and AFAIK none of them are open.

Sorry if I am not coherent. Its pretty late and I had to type it forcing myself to stay awake :)
Or maybe a better way is “optimizing for outsourcing”—diligent documentation, strict coding guidelines, etc. That would help to improve communication, get new people up-to-speed quickly, keep things consistent.

I'm not sure why there's a need for apprenticeship today, when there are so many ways to record and exchange information. There just needs to be a culture giving value to documents and documenting practices. This doesn't reduce the need to hire good people, but is likely to increase their work efficiency, regardless of how much development is outsourced.

Everything is primitive, in that it is the origin for the things to come. The way I think of the situation is that our species and its civilization are frightfully young, with all the arrogance and naïveté that entails. Here's hoping we're not the kind of teenager that kills ourselves by crashing the family car.
Petzold is absolutely right (and his Programming Windows is still a fantastic resource). It's just that not all technical books live up to the high bar he's set for them. Most technical books are JATBs ("Just Another Technical Book"), but every once in a while we get a Learn You a Haskell or Eloquent JavaScript. It's the same with every kind of book: a few gems hidden in a mound of trash.

(Also re: rsaarelm's comment, the two books I mention above were available for free online long before anyone gave a thought to publishing them. Their length is in no way dictated by printing technology or market pressure.)

Whimsically flipping flags leads to random inexplicable browser misbehavior a week from now after you've forgotten you changed something.

The reason these flags are off by default is because they have consequences: e.g. pipelining causes random HTTP timeouts if any proxy between you and your destination doesn't understand it. The GPU stuff will all be on by default once it works reliably.

Turn these sorts of experiments on temporarily to see if they affect a page you're working on, sure, but don't think that you're making your browser better by leaving them on.
Ask HN: How to stop Google Plus spamming someone when I add them to my circles?
Google Plus often presents me with a list of people and says, "Maybe you want to add some of these people to your circle". If I then do so, it sends them an email that says "MarkMc added you to his circles and invited you to join Google+".

This is really spammy behaviour. When I add someone to a circle I am NOT inviting them to join Google Plus, and I generally don't want them to receive an email. Can I stop Google Plus from doing this?

Thanks

I think the tone is just a reaction (and an appropriate one, at that) to the hyperbole in the title. Just saying "the title is a bit of a hyperbole" would actually make for a worse comment.

Protip: Do Not Post A Pic Of A Pile Of Cash To Facebook
Bought the consumer preview edition. Love the writing style.

The challenge nowadays for tech writers is people become impatient, they can't sit there and wait for you to tell the whole story. They simply jump. So it would be better that the book is narrative and also jump-friendly.
I wonder what this really has to do with Tech. Seeing Techchrunch posting such stuff is disheartening :-(

The "dummy" concept is really interesting. It dwells in "information asymmetry"; markets where sellers know more than buyers tend to not function properly (shameless plug: I have written about this here http://blog.medusis.com/are-you-a-lemon).

Now, what can a given small company do about it? I think the two opposite strategies of trying to "drive away dummies" or "embrace them" are valid; what isn't as effective is trying to serve both dummies and experts by offering plans with wildly different pricing.

You probably need to make a choice: choose a positioning in either the "dummies" or "expert" space and serve only this population.

Facebook and the sad case of ethical investment bankers
This article doesn't make any sense. For example: "the more Facebook shares fall, the more money Morgan Stanley and Facebook IPO underwriters make". This would only be the case if the banks were short the company which no one has confirmed yet and is usually not the case. In fact, some believe that Morgan Stanley bought a large number of shares above $38.00 in order to prop the price up on the opening day, in which case it would be setting on a very large loss.
But one could see a campaign to have the same plugs as the rest of Europe, perhaps.

By providing all useful BlackBerry information all at one place will surely help many people who are really searching on web which is time consuming as well as very frustrating. Feel free to have a look on this website & feel the difference – I’m sure you’ll be coming back & asking for more as me.
Not evidence, but the product page indicates:

"In addition to supporting portable, consumer, industrial, communications and medical applications with commercial and industrial temperature devices, Actel also offers ProASIC3 FPGAs with specialized screening for automotive and military systems."

There seems to be a special variant of the chip for military use, hopefully without this 'debugging feature'.
Easily create delegation chains in Objective-C with PHFDelegateChain
I do that too, I stay out of traffic, and I don't see the problem. Of everyday experiences I'd just as soon miss out on, staring at another DONT WALK sign is near the top of the list. When I want to spend time being creative, I wander around a park aimlessly and ignore my phone; navigating busy streets is just enough hassle that it doesn't work for me.
Actel devices are often used because they use flash memory for the configuration, which makes them usable in situations where RAM may be untrustworthy for something so important (e.g. where you can get bit-flipping due to ionising radiation).

They also make properly rad-hard FPGAs, although these are ridiculously expensive (I've heard that if you are looking at building more than ~10-15 units, an ASIC may actually be cheaper).

Edit: I should add that you could still use Xilinx and Altera devices in these situations, but you really need some way of mitigating the problem -- such as TMR memory.
I think that you're partly right, and it ties in with one of the points in pg's essay about addictive technology[1], that societies eventually develop antibodies to addictive new things. The problem (also noted in the essay, which grows more frightening the longer I think about it) is that most of the people who succumb to the addictive thing will not change their lifestyle to overcome it. Meanwhile, many companies in Silicon Valley are working to make their products as addictive as possible, soaking the most vulnerable users for the most money. The poster boy for this behavior is Zynga, but you see it everywhere.

What's the solution? Maybe we need to try harder to add addictive properties to activities we value. Or maybe we need a cultural movement away from things that are low-value and addictive to things that are high-value but not very addictive. It's difficult, because almost anything that's fun is potentially addictive. Reading, coding, and exercise are all valuable and can all be addictive. Not all addictions are equal. Running for two hours a day is probably better than playing Farmville for two hours a day.

I think that Matt's comments hit home because we're often in a position now of building things that lock people into harmful addictive behaviors. We all have to ask ourselves whether the work we do is valuable, or just lucrative.
