A lot of medical timing is guess work - why are antibiotics commonly prescribed for 5, 7, 10 or 14 days? Whynot 6?

"Apple filed response to DoJ." <Link to response.> Possibly a summary of claims.
My G+ account really is a ghost town. I would close it if I could figure out how to without killing my gmail etc.

My twitter account /looks/ like a ghost town, in that I never do anything on it myself. But I'm using it to follow a bunch of feeds I'm interested in; I check it regularly. I'm not sure how an outside observer could tell the difference between the two, other than by counting logins - but for me, twitter is useful, and G+ is dead.
Email - check - I run my own IMAP/SMTP server (windows based - virtually zero config). Cloud storage - I use a usb stick in my bag, truecrypt and robocopy. Music streaming - I use an mp3 player on my phone (which has no cloud services). Web site - don't need one but I can chuck one on my fibre line for nothing.

You genuinely dont need those cloud products despite the marketing to the contrary. Why do people assume that they NEED them?
I did karate in grades 2-8, but I was never very keen on the fitness stuff and didn't push myself very hard. I enjoyed doing sports recreationally, e.g., soccer, volleyball, basketball. But then all through high school I would only have a PE class once a week and maybe do some cross country or cycling occasionally. So very little exercise. When I started P90X last summer, it was very much the discrete switch you describe. I was about to start working at a startup that summer, so I aligned the two to start the same day and committed to both.
My experience is there's a tendency to ship the first viable thing that comes out and deal with the rest on an as-needed basis. This is fine for stuff that can survive being a bit ramshackle at first if you can refactor it later, but some things are highly resistant to later refactoring.
Apple charted the right course. Make development tools free or close to it and make it hard for developers to do the wrong thing.
Twitter is, for me, very much a "right now" tool. I used to read up on missed posts, but now I just follow too many people. So I look at the recent history of a couple of lists, then look at even less of my main stream for interesting conversations/links.

FB/G+ feel far more involved, even if I'm doing the same thing. I chalk this up to the conversations being longer, and more in depth/nuanced.
Pretty much every "G+ is a ghost town" thread I've read includes the caveat "unless you're Robert Scoble". Hilariously applicable at this moment.
I consider myself somewhat new to HN, but here's what I think about it. I'm likely to be wrong, but it may be at least partly the reason.

First, it seems very useless to say “This is cool, I like it”. We know these types of comments, which often remain around the bottom.

Much easier is to write a useful objection that would grow into a thread and is likely to add to the discussion. You can point out a factual mistake, doubt something—you just need to stay more or less on topic.

The problem is often, though, in how the objection is phrased. One can say something like: “This is very good work, but [objection phrased as a question]. But still, [x] is a nice idea.” I always try to object like that. However, it takes time. If the person appropriate for the feedback is unlikely to read HN, politeness doesn't seem to be worth it. We also need to account for cultural differences. Then, many of more technical people here seem to be not very sensitive to politeness level, but very sensitive to factual mistakes.

So we end up with comments that look frank, but are useful and start discussions.

New people probably want to comment in the same spirit to attract attention and build up karma, but they may assume that frankness is the key. (What for one is a plain simple comment, for another may look like a blunt statement.)

So we end up with comments that often look frank and aren't very useful.

Could an 8 bit lisp in 64k (more like 32k once video memory and things were taken care of) offered competitive gaming performance? If not, the machine would have ripely sunk without a trace. I can't imagine the performance would be acceptable, in a world of cycle-specific algorithms, which would often keep track of te current position along a scan line. But, perhaps, I have insufficient lisp imagination.

I've got a couple friends doing p90x as well, and i'm concerned that it'll simply make them look like endurance runners, eg skinny as rakes, unless you're on steroids. What's your thoughts on that?

I'm personally trying the reg park system (pre steroids style powerlifting, through stronglifts.com) because i'm aiming for a bit of bulk (i have no illusions of becoming mahoosive).

Asking questions takes a bit of courage at what ever level the student is at, simply because the questioner is revealing something about their understanding of the topic to the other class members. Good teaching skills suggest taking all questions seriously; the ones who ask questions help you to gauge the level of understanding in the room.
I use G+ more frequently than FB and I enjoy better signal/noise ratio in my G+ streams. I suppose both FB and G+ miss interest-based approach which makes them still more noisy than they should be.
Black times at BlackBerry as RIM poised for big layoffs
For me the Twitter use case is to keep myself stimulated while working remotely by interactions with other people in my field, catch breaking news as it happens (e.g. blog articles on new tech), and to promote work that I have done (e.g. blog articles I have written). So when I am working actively on a project, I probably check 4-6 times a day. In between I probably check 2 times / week. I also have used monitoring tools like awe.sm to see how many people re-tweet things that I tweet out, among other things to make sure I'm providing value to people that are following me (i.e. high signal to noise ratio). I also use twitter to answer questions that I can't find the answers to elsewhere -- generally very technical questions.

Facebook is a tricky one, since it promotes addictive "stalking" behavior. I've attempted to use it primarily for messaging and to hide most people who aren't in my immediate vicinity, thinking that I probably don't need to know what they are doing. Still, I am a part of "liking" tribes where there is an implicit economy of trading likes on something and receiving likes back.

G+ I only use when I get annoying messages from Google that someone has asked me a question or added me to some circle. Other than that I avoid it like the plague -- this despite being an enthusiastic adopter in the early days.

LinkedIn I use probably once a month, except in the occasional moments where I am actively networking. I get very little value here since I am not usually looking for work and the technical folks I interact with are available on Twitter (or, at worse, email).
The people that I see on Google+ use it in a very different way than the average user uses Facebook. It's much closer aligned to Twitter than Facebook.

The average Facebook user uses it as a tool to keep in touch with family and friends. Google+ is a ghost town for most new users, a few of my non techie friends joined Google+ when it first launched and haven't been back since because their friends are still using Facebook. Scoble and most Google+ users are outliers. The majority of users want a social network to share with their friends and they are not interested in following a bunch of random people.

I'm not sure what the article is talking about. Movement of a particle under gravitation plus friction is not exactly an unsolved problem. For example: http://www.damtp.cam.ac.uk/user/reh10/lectures/ia-dyn-handou...

This sounds like the kind of stuff you would see in a class on ordinary differential equations, usually in your first or second semester of undergrad engineering. Certainly advanced for a high school student, but not really what I would call newsworthy...
G+ is more about building an interest graph than FB, don't use it as a vanity/foodiate platform and it won't be a ghosttown. I'm mostly on it for link following and I'm getting super high quality science and tech links in my feed. the ghost-town characterization is way off base.
Fun with interfaces and higher-order functions
I've always been quite skinny and my metabolism drives it very well, I sweat fast, etc. And I'm tall too, which means more muscle mass to get the same size. I also did the P90X doubles version, which starts at month 2 and adds 3 more endurance workouts weekly. All that taken into account, I still managed to get good functional muscle growth.

It is very easy to modify the program to suit your needs. If your friends do not care that much about endurance, I would suggest not doing the doubles version, keeping rep counts low (eight or less) and trying to increase the weight from week to week. They should also take in enough protein, perhaps through whey protein supplements, but definitely no steroids.

What's more important than anything of the above is how much effort you put into every workout. If they push themselves hard enough during the resistance training parts, there will be nothing to worry about and there's plenty of massive after-pictures from P90X online to prove this.

P90X will give you massive performance improvements for almost every physical activity. If you just want to bulk up, look up hypertrophy training. That will be much easier mentally if you don't necessarily care about fitness.

You can close your Google Plus account in settings. I did it a few months ago. I later reactivated it and it restored my account with all my followers (it had removed all my old posts and profile information though). In settings it will warn you exactly what Google services will be affected by closing your G+ account.
I like G+ but it is a ghost town. If you follow enough people you will get good content but interaction is terrible. In the first few weeks I built up over 1500 'followers'. If I posed a question I would get responses. Now, nothing. If I ask a question I may get, at most, one response a few days later. Compare this with twitter where I have under 300 followers and get several responses instantly.

I also find that to regularly get new content on G+ I have to follow lots more people than I do on Twitter. People seem to post a lot less frequently on G+ (a lot of people only post a few times a week). This is a problem for me because unlike Scoble I don't want to manage circles with tens of thousands of people. Eventually that will get unmanageable and unlike Scoble management of my social media accounts isn't part of my job.
Did that daycare owner really cause a harm worth hundreds of dollars - was the picture devalued that much by posting it on a micro website visited by maybe a dozen people? I think it helps to be a little objective here. I mean, I'm as capitalist as the next guy, but I fail to see how taking taking hundreds of dollars away from a small business owner who is technologically naive is correcting an imbalance in the free market.

It's a slippery path from there to charging arbitrarily ridiculous amounts like [$15K][1] for a violation, leading to insane lump sum damage amounts like [$75 trillion][2].

This is often the problem. Unless you are some kind of star in your own right, the odds are that almost nobody beyond random followers are going to include you in their circles. That basically leaves you with the option of circling others in order to have anything meaningful in your stream. Here again you are more or less guaranteed (in current conditions) that next to none of your friends/family is going to be on G+. So you are left with the option of circling strangers only, which is not what you would normally do on a social network.

The great thing about G+ is that in this large group of strangers there is a huge number of tech (and other) luminaries who are actively engaging on the network. Circle them and you basically get a stream of comments, thoughts, links and pictures that are really worth following. I've only circled about a 100 or so of these "strangers" and I've just loving the interaction. Sure, nobody (or very few) +1 anything I have to say, but that doesn't bother me as I'm far more interested in what they have to say. No way you can call it a ghost town when you engage in G+ this way.

On the other hand, if you circle nobody then it does become a ghost town. But it would hardly be fair to call it one.
I could be wrong, but I believe The Times is generally regarded as a respectable paper over here, and I presume the same to be true of its Sunday counterpart.
Laravel looks nice but I agree the internal/default naming conventions and structures are a bit odd for 2012. Hopefully this will be changed in an upcoming version.
I can write code, but can't design well. Career suggestions?
Thanks. This is pretty good.
The Sunday Times is no tabloid, but interestingly I couldn't find this on the times website. I will however go out and act like a 20th century nobleman and buy the newspaper today and update the original article if I can find it.
agreed, how come this article doesn't link to any more serious publications?
I'm tired of dumb journalists using science to make a quick buzz. It's like that kid who had allegedly found a way to derive more energies by making solar panels in the shape of trees, it was complete bullshit.
Laravel makes extensive use of namespaces.

The omission of namepaces in the case of controllers was a calculated decision. PHP's implementation of namespaces is... inadequate, and would have required annoying workarounds, so prefixing controllers was the better evil.

MVC seems an odd paradigm for the non-realtime web, when you have to instantiate every object on each request, and data update events are the exception, rather than the rule.

For simple cases, I often fall into a (M/C)+(VL/V) pattern: model and controller fused into one layer, view-logic and view into another. If database logic is sufficient complex or used in multiple places, break it out into its own layer, same for view logic. No pattern can or should be a universal panacea for every use case.

All that said, I'm really liking Laravel's approach. It's high time that PHP frameworks started getting wise to closures.
twitter bootstrap uses exactly this technique.. pretty sure there a few sites using it then
Traditional media has awful citation conventions. Basically the journalist adds a vague source just to wash his/her hands in case the story turns out to be false. In this case an Australian paper refers to a British paper (without a link or an exact reference) and the story is about a German scientific publication. So this is third or fourth hand story, and you can just guess how much has been lost in translation.
I really like this approach. It's one of the reasons I like Express in node.js. I am by no means a fan of PHP after using it on several projects, but if I were forced at gunpoint I would look into Laravel.

I also like the DB table creation code. ActiveRecord-type model delcarations are fine, but I'm interested in exploring Mongoose-type ORM, since I suspect it is more flexible in the long run.
You can enable "ignore all keys" mode with Shift-Escape in Vimperator. It would then just pass all your key strokes directly to the app. I believe there should be similar mode in Pentadactyl as well.
Absolutely. And if you work for yourself from home, and thus miss out on the social interaction of an office, team sports are a great way to unwind and mingle.
The DOJ antitrust dept has been so emasculated from doing it's actual job that just about the only thing it acts on are open and shut cases with hard evidence like the price fixing here. So some careerist at DoJ had a chance to buff his resume up with a high profile case, got some open and shut evidence and boom here we are. Apple may or may not have been party to this but no one cares and this will die a quiet death later on.
The secret is to make your own way there. It's good to be inspired by others, but trying to imitate them generally leads to disappointment.
If he looks at his bat-signal is a synthetic immune system he'll be able to anticipate common pitfalls.
