This may go against what lots of tech. people like to think (it's certainly a much sexier idea to think of a good company as one run by and only employing hackers), but just for the record there are people in many departments, including legal, marketing, sales, operations and HR, who are both talented and useful at companies.

The fact that RIM clearly has a lot of cruft to cut doesn't mean that a.) that cruft is all, or even mostly, outside their technical staff or that b.) of the non-technical cruft, those getting fired are part of it.
I have 50 left, and running `file` on them shows that 40 of them are shell script wrappers around `git`.
Well, here's an example where not having first-class macros is confusing:

in takes any number of arguments, and returns whether the first argument is repeated in the rest of them:

arc> (in 2 1 2 3)
t
arc> (in 0 1 2 3)
nil

Ok, let's say I have a list, and I want to find out whether something is in it:

arc> (apply in 2 (list 1 2 3))
Error: "Function call on inappropriate object #(tagged mac #<procedure: in>) (0 1 2 3)"

Oh dear. That's not right.

The solution, at least in Arc, is to use mem:

arc> (mem 2 (list 1 2 3))
(2 3)

It returns the first sub-list of its second argument such that the car of the returned list is the element searched for -- or 'nil if the element isn't in the list. So yes, you can make it work, in this case. But it's surely more confusing than having (apply in 2 (list 1 2 3)) work.
That kind of defeats the purpose of the requirement I'd think.

I went on a Piracetam (Nootropil) phase during high school for about 3 months. I would not qualify the effects as subtle. They were quite dramatic in my case. Razor-like focus and amazing retention of study material. No side-effects that I can remember.

It's been many years, and I would like to self-experiment again. Where can a U.S. citizen get Piracetam from these days?

Markdown has a lot of shortcoming because it maps to basic html. i.e. It ignores starting numbers and numbering gaps.

Markdown is not a standardize encoding. Many markdown editors don't support tables for instance.

Finally, as an editor, it lacks the easiness to add images and such. They need to be uploaded in a web server.

It thus has significant limitations before it can be considered a serious rich text alternative.

I do use it and I would love it had a better support because it is easy. What I like is that when writing we focus on the text, not the formating. Formatting is implicit.

These are some of MY reasons for using a Mac. Can't speak for others.

1. The hardware and quality is second to none (personal opinion) to any PC equivalent regardless of operating system. Not even a Thinkpad which is what most PC users would often tout in my experience. Apple also leads the way in some areas of innovation here in terms of the hardware arguments.

2. The trackpad is amazing. I haven't found an equivalent elsewhere.

3. In terms of OS, Linux and Windows are both designed to be installed on almost any computer, including all Macs. You can do this by bootcamp, booting directly into the OS, or running virtual machine (what I do) and can run simutaneous OSes for various different testing and stuff without a problem. For the longest time, the opposite was not true (up until Lion) i.e. it wasn't legal to do so and even now its not very compatible. Doing a hackintosh sucks and have major drawbacks for anyone that has done this.

As a result, with a Mac, I get superior hardware, all the software options, and it runs phenomenally. And having used some Linux distro, Macs, and Windows, I can tell you I strongly prefer OS X first, Linux second, and forget Windows entirely.

There really isn't much of a competition. This is of course a vague overview. There are tons of other underlying reasons I won't get into as its too much to write about in terms of the OS and software/tools and how that adds to the development process itself which for my workflow, there are many non-comparables in either of the other two categories of OSes, especially Windows.

BONUS: You can develop for anything with a Mac, especially for the setup I laid out, but you can't say the same is true for everything else given that iOS requires a Mac.
Free and independent film are experiencing an incredible boom right now, and the Blu-Ray eco-system with its DRM (or TPM) , region codes, and exorbitant patent licensing fees denies us access to that. So, I think it's time to do something about it.

I think a more likely scenario is cities having little 'auto-factory' locations that have an automated machine shop create things for the neighborhood. They'll get shipments of raw materials, electronics and energy pipelines. These shops can assemble the robots for new shops and so on.
You're most welcome. It's such a refreshing sight as just 2 months ago, Elon was visibly quite disappointed in this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pJnW7vtqaf4&feature=relat...

I hope Apollo astronauts Neil Armstrong and Eugene Cernan will show their support for Elon now that the mission was a success, partly due to collaboration with NASA. This is also NASA's victory, really, since they can save millions in the future by contracting with an American company instead of relying on the Russians.

I think the most important point is the first one, don't be naive, educate yourself.

Learn how to take better decisions, knowing thinks like PMI

http://www.mindtools.com/pages/article/newTED_05.htm

described by de Bono in his course of thinking.

http://www.amazon.com/Bonos-Thinking-Course-Revised-Edition/...

will help you when making important decisions.

There are a lot of people that will try to take advantage of you, don't make long term commitments like bank loans, they will put pressure on you, try to avoid it, live your life.

Having good education helps you better understand the problems that you will confront, combined with knowing how to analyze them to make a good decision is the most important thing to know and also do stuff that you are passionate about, don't push yourself doing something you don't like because someone else wants to.

Most of it is true.
1.) Agree.

2.) Agree.

3.) Perhaps in the blogosphere, its a non issue for the other 99% of users.

4.) Again I think you've got your head in the blogosphere. Try inverting your statement. For a large set of users, iOS/Android are just devices that allow them to use Facebook away from the PC. Easy to see how calling, messaging, photos and games could integrate seamlessly with Facebook.

5.) Perhaps a bit more expensive, or they can just do what device manufacturers do now and market different versions for different regions. Not many people need a phone that is compatible with every single wireless protocol.

6.) Dont understand.

7.) Facebook games?

8.) Pay for handset. Monthly access fee. Whatever. People are used to paying for their phone.

If it wasnt for the telcos, this idea might have some traction.

The point about a specifically authored narrative leading to a deeper understanding is a good one, but what about the suitable length for that narrative? The length of technical books is dictated by printing technology and market pressure (people think they get their money's worth if the book looks thick), not by what's the least amount of pages that can impart the most understanding.

Technical books are generally divided into chapters somewhere around 30 pages in length. This is also in the ballpark of the length of most standalone technical articles. So the book can be thought of as a series of shorter articles that form an overarching narrative, even if it's by a single author.

I wonder if things can go even more concise from the 30 page article form, and still maintain the property of being pleasant to read, easy to learn from and imparting a deeper understanding through a narrative going through multiple chapters. We are still bad at using proper hypertext for long-lasting useful and serious writing compared to the conventions in writing for print.
Personally:
1. I run as a standard user (without sudo access), with a separate administrator user (not named admin). I like Jeff Atwood's post on this: http://www.codinghorror.com/blog/2007/06/the-windows-securit...

To sudo I have to first su into my administrator user, then sudo. This would have protected, for example, against the exploit a couple months ago that allowed a virus to change a user's password (and then sudo with the changed password).

For most graphical programs, I get a popup asking for my admin username and password if the program wants access to system files.

2. I use Chrome with plugins disabled by default. You can enable them permanently per-site (for youtube and hulu, mostly), and when a site loads that I want to run flash on, I just right click on the plugin to run it (or run all from the URL bar). There are probably similar options in Safari and Firefox

Which is why, at the end of this article, I suddenly went "what?!" when I read:

"And researchers will not probably hunt for similar JTAG backdoors in other chips."

If there's one good thing to come of all this fearmongering, it is that chips will be subjected to more scrutiny. Hopefully someday chips are much more open, standardized, and well documented. That's a long way off, but there are many reasons to hope it might happen.

I don't know, maybe I read that sentence wrong. Maybe the author meant, "researchers will, not probably, but for sure hunt for backdoors."

Well I don't know about low light, but lasers operate on very narrow color bands, so if you filter out the color of the laser in the video stream, you filter out most of the laser light. You also have to be very precise to actually hit that tiny sensor moving in the air from a distance.
The last one was about 780,000 years ago, sometime around the start of the Middle Pleistocene. The earliest known Neanderthals are about 300,000 years old.

What? Even if you are the most responsible and conscientious gun owner whose bullets will never damage any people or property, discharging a firearm in a dense urban area is severe noise pollution and causes distress to people who hear it because they have every reason to believe that they may be in danger.

He's completely right in his reasoning, but just like a lot of pessimistic predictions made about people, this one doesn't take into account the human ability to realize and fix something like this if it becomes a real problem.

I quit using a cell phone once I realized it was killing my concentration (and a Palm Pre is a hard thing to give up). I haven't used Twitter in months, Facebook sees me like once a week, and my email is quickly sorted (with the help of Webos 3.0's amazing mail client) once in the morning or whenever I feel like it.

I have a feeling a lot more people will try this in the next few years (and they'll love it).
I tend not to like TDD for a different and serious reasons. TDD seems to encourage bad trial and error programming practices where developer blindly modifies the code until it passes the tests instead of reasoning about correctness based on algorithms and specifications. TDD does not consider that even a program that work correctly in the current environment for any possible set of input data is still incorrect if it violates contracts defined in APIs and protocols. Remember how the correct update to the memcpy implementation in glibc broke programs that incorrectly used it for overlapping memory regions.

I have no experience in this area, but I think that a HR company finding employees for start-ups can be problematic. Normally, if you are not a 100+ people start-up, the kind of people you are looking for are not exactly the ones that are doing well in a standardised, corporation-style application process. So it's possible you end up with a bunch of corporate people, where you actually wanted some creative nerds.

Going above and beyond on end user self-service support helps.

1. Mouseover help on every input field

2. Searchable help system with screen captures, it has to be comprehensive.

3. Video help, Camtasia style walk throughs.

Your users are not dummies. They need support, on the feature they are using, when they are using it. You can either provide that support self-service or you can provide it via email/phone. One is far easier for the user (self-service) and the other is much harder on you (answer emails on how to use basic functionality).

I ran a free crm system for about 10 years, it took refining how each feature worked and creating all of the different ways of self-service support but I was able to get technical support down to 1 question per week. That was with about 1,200 unique daily users... users who would be in the system all day because they had all of their calendars, files, contacts, and other things online in the system. They didn't want to wait for support, they wanted the answer right away and I made sure they could get it without contacting me.

Average Joe user, he looks at this and is just guessing:
https://dmhx3adjqsy1o.cloudfront.net/assets/marketing/shots/... I see a support link but I bet that link goes to a generic support page and not support for that page in particular. So now the user has to jump through hoops to find support and might give up.

The user needs to understand the the benefit (of each admin page), what the page is doing, some ideas of how to read the data, and get the most out of it. There can be no assumptions that the user knows anything... they are going to have to be taught and you want that done by self-learning.

The user signed up because of the top 1/3rd of the homepage with the marketing talk. Just because they sign up doesn't mean they fully understand the system, how to use it, and how to dig deep into each page and get the benefits.
