Love the demo - but I think you should take a moment on there to explain the benefits of using this vs. just setting CSS transitions in a stylesheet - as in, what it's for, why it's better than .animate(), etc.
You can deliberately choose it to not convince you and in doing that, that won't make it magically disappear.
The problem with SOCOM, and why Force Recon didn't fit in, is that Force Recon was always meant to perform a specific mission within the context of a Marine Air-Ground Task Force (MAGTF), not be used as a black-ops team on a detached mission. Which is incidentally why the Marines still have them, even though the Marines have teams assigned to SOCOM now.
The issue isn't security. The issue is control. The Debian project uses signed packages to ensure integrity but is open regardless. Of course there should be security and a reasonable expectation of utility but not at the cost of free use of something you bought and own. The tech industry is moving to a concept that you "rent", for lack of a better term, rather than own something you purchase. I have no issue with commercial software but all software is useless without the hardware to run it. If I have the hardware, I should be able to do what I want with it, just like an automobile. What's the difference? If a car manufacturer decided which highways you could drive on, based on a restrictive license agreement, you wouldn't buy that car, but you wouldn't buy a car without seatbelts. We wouldn't accept this concept in any other situation, why do we accept it in this situation?
Who pays for this massive amount of unused hardware? Is there a guarantee that you can access this hardware anytime in this quantity?

There's a lot of overlap between Steam/Linux and Steam/LinuxConsole so it wouldn't surprise me if both strategies were being run in parallel.
I've heard people I hold in high regard mention this too. Of course, it's hard to prove, but so is anything of this nature.
"business logic should be written in code, not in data and not in the database"

This makes no sense. Stored procedures are code - just code that executes within your DB, instead of on your app servers. I agree that it makes sense to keep your business logic all in one codebase, but there are times when stored procs are a very efficient solution to business-logic problems.

Overall I agree that this "DB API" solution is not entirely elegant, and might provide as many security holes as it does interesting debugging challenges.

However, there are some situations in which I could see this being incredibly useful. Combining this Nginx's JSON/API modules means some parts of your API could entirely bypass your app servers.

Let's say you have an API that shows the ten items most recently liked by a particular user. Typically, this request would hit Nginx, your app server, then your cache and/or DB. By using the "shared procs API" and some Nginx modules, you could provide the same data by letting Nginx query your cache/DB directly.

Ah. I work on a laptop, and I can't stand it when a window isn't using up the entire space, so I just make everything fullscreen and flip between them with cmd-tab (slow) or ctl-left/right (fast). I switch between ~4-5 macs a day and ~30-50 a month, so I can't be bothered to use anything but default keybindings and software.

> so people without internet who watch TV haven't been counted.

I don't know enough to comment on this in an informed manner, but my gut says that even the few people who don't pay for internet use the internet through other means. When I worked in city schools, even the poorest people used the internet at school, at cafes, at libraries. Then there's a generational issue, though.

It brings up an interesting problem: how do you get a representative sample which isn't biased by the medium? I refuse to do phone polls/surveys anymore, and so has everyone I know. Most people my age (<28) don't even have a landline.
SEO: the new trend in home-based jobs? 
After spending 12 years of my life working for top corporations, recently I decided to pursue a career in the home-based industry so I can attend to my family's needs without having to miss work. It took me a while before I was able to find long term and stable project, for most of the projects that I see would require a skill in SEO (Search Engine Optimization) which is something new to me. I was starting to feel hopeless, until a friend referred me to a project that does not require SEO skills.

I have spent 4 years of my career in the corporate world as an IT Junior Process Analyst, building test cases and developing web based projects using ASP and Visual Basic, but that was 8 years ago. True enough that technology is fast changing, it has affected how certain products or companies are being marketed in the internet, and SEO plays a great role in this.

According to Wikipedia, Search engine optimization (SEO) is the process of improving the visibility of a website or a web page in search engines. The objective is to make a web page rank high on the results list, or be on the first page of search engines like Yahoo, Google, Bing and the like. Knowing how SEO can generate jobs for people, and how it can greatly affect the marketability of a product, an individual or a company, I am currently looking for tutorials or schools that will help me learn more about this new process in the world of Information Technology.

I think the question isn't general-purpose but "what is the purpose?"

If the purpose is collective economic advancement through developing awesome software, all you have to do is support new members of the community in getting going.

If the purpose is having fun, spirited debates, then this becomes harder. However the same rules apply. These are:

1) Stratify the community so not everyone has an equal voice in everything.

2) Every strata has an obligation to help every other strata stay civil and grow the community and norms together.

"Mastery" is like a buzz-word, but it's had its power in our culture for a long time. Buzz-words are useless unless a meaning is assigned to them.

To me, mastery means mastery of the basics.

A master chef is a master at slicing, chopping, mixing ingredients correctly, and applying heat to food in a variety of ways (frying, baking, grilling, etc). A master carpenter is a master of measuring, sawing, hammering, and fastening wood together.

My professor for introductory accounting tells his classes that advanced accounting textbooks have the same chapters as the beginning books, just with more advanced subject matter. Mastery of accounting would then be just mastering those basics.

Seems to be fried. (Popularity is a good sign.)

So, it's basically a web-scraper, but with a JSON API. The API input is limited to a single parameter, that indexes the record to be scraped. The API output is taken from that indexed record, consisting of a set of scraped elements within that record, and presented as JSON, with attributes named as user specified.

Although this is limited to a list of renamed records, it could be extended (if needed), and I really like the concept and UI implementation. Feedback: As someone who has never used css, I found it very tricky to even duplicate the tutorial: selectors are sensitive to leading and trailing spaces; the selectors given in the tute aren't what's needed (and see BTW below); and often "API call failed: Internal Server Error" indicating a problem with the selector, but not what it is, and ATM service is often "unavailable" :), it's slow switching back and forth between "edit" and "test" (why not include testing on the same page? like HN comment edits: textarea + rendered result); when an attribute is removed, it remains in the JSON (code eg http://apify.heroku.com/resources/4fcb26d7a06a160001000024); it takes a long time (30s, 1min) to get a result. I hate to say it, but it's like my experience with ruby: it takes so much time and effort to get the tool to basically work, that I've used up all my enthusiasm/gumption and have none left for the project I had in mind. But much of this is because of current traffic spike, my ignorance of css, and minor polishing/bugs that can be fixed in vers 1.1 - as I said, I really like the idea and UI.

But a deeper question: why a service, instead of a library? It's cross-language, but has an extra dependency (the service), an extra network jump, processing from many users convening at one point. It's interesting to me, because the world seems to be moving towards services, and this would logically include components that formerly would be libraries. Will this happen? What are the pros and cons? Will Amazon etc provide free computation for users of open-source components, analogous to open-source libraries? Interesting.

That's exactly it. As another example, witness the internet porn censorship debate in the UK at the moment. No-one in government cares about porn. Jacqui Smith MP even buys her porn using her parliamentary expense account! What it's really about is putting the machinery in place for real censorship and control later.

The TSA is about establishing the infrastructure for real restriction of movement, using terrorism as a mere pretext.
I'm in a similar situation (hooked on Xmonad, but cannot run Linux). I've tried various solutions over the years, but the only one I've found acceptable so far is a full-screen iTerm2 running tmux.

I use `bind t split-window \; select-layout main-vertical` to emulate Xmonads default layout behaviour.

It works because I spend most of my time in the terminal anyway. I miss having the browser - and the video player when doing repetitive or otherwise boring tasks! - in a pane, but keeping other apps out of the tile-management is fine as I'm, more often than not, switching context anyway.

Wouldn't you just use copy and paste?
Your first two are basically "Part time workers tend to go away" then explaining why that's bad

Yup :-) The "reason why it's bad" bit was the thing I was trying to focus on. Since that's the issue that the OP will have to get out of potential employers heads (or find potential employers where it's not an issue).

On what are you baseing that? I'm not sure I've seen that.

I don't have any stats I'm afraid. Just my experiences over the years. Anecdotal I know but it would seem to make sense. By definition part time folk are spending the time they're not with you doing something else. Whether that's surfing, spending time with their family, working on a side project, or whatever. Those things are important to them otherwise they wouldn't be spending their time on them. Sometimes they get more important than the part time role.

Team building is important, but it can still happen with part-time workers

Agreed. That's why I said it was "much harder" not impossible :-)

I'm not trying to argue against part-time employees. I've been one. I've worked with 'em. I've hired 'em. It can work out great.

It's just that the benefits that the employee gets by being part time are not necessarily risk free for the employer. If you're aware of the risks then you're in a better position to reassure a potential employer that they don't apply to you.

Oh yes - for the OP - did you ask why they didn't want a part time role? I always ask why I get rejected. You may not always get an honest answer of course - but you'll often be surprised if my experiences are anything to go by. I've learned a lot by being rejected :-)
I've found Guard::LiveReload (https://github.com/guard/guard-livereload) to work exceptionally well. It's Ruby, but should work alongside whatever development framework you're using.

Some of them.

For example Boost.Spirit.Karma is an order of magnitude faster than sprintf (I don't know compared to fbformat), with the drawback of a very long compile time (see here: http://tinodidriksen.com/2010/02/07/cpp-convert-int-to-strin...).

Arena, SmallLocks and AtomicHashMap will have to challenge Intel TBB. I submit TBB will be better, but I haven't done the benchmarks.

As for the rest, some of the stuff is simply outdated.

There's better stuff than Synchronized in the C++11 standard. Foreach doesn't make sense with lambdas.

Some of the headers are just trivial and useless functions (MapUtil.h, IntrusiveList.h, Random.h...), etc.

I'm a bit disappointed.
Thanks for the feedback. Will fix it in a future version.

Service is just an extension of this library:

I like to read judges decisions occasionally and I've always been impressed - I haven't always agreed, but they are always well written and well reasoned.

Maybe it's a bit of selection bias in my choice of decisions to read (typically the cases that are on the news), but I suspect most judges are extremely smart and very good at what they do.

If you (plural you) don't read them, you should - they are not written for lawyers (aside from a tiny bit of jargon that is easy to lookup - usually Latin words). Typically before deciding any law the Judge will include an introduction with an explanation of how the law is structured, and it's clear that that's not written for lawyers (who would be expected to know this already), but for the general public.
Don't feed the trolls! If a comment is bad enough for me to want to downvote it I certainly don't want to engage the author in conversation. In fact, by downvoting I hope to push the comment further down so there to let the better comments float up and to make it less likely it will start a stupid pointless argument thread, replying would do the oposite usually.

Also, I think that, in general, quoting in comments tends to lead to lower quality comments. It's a lot easier to do a point by point nitpick than the write a proper response to the ideas contained in the parent post.
I suppose that depends on how one defines "engineering". I consider engineering to be a way of formalising methodology to get consistent, repeatable, and verifiable results. My opinion on this topic is based both on this view of engineering as well as experience having worked at different times as an electrical engineer and software developer. I would say yes, mathematics is indispensable for good software engineering, although it certainly isn't the only requisite skill to meet the above definition (nor always the most important).
I've been using this wonderful piece of software for a couple of weeks now. It's extremely powerful when you need to implement multiple interfaces (including non-HTTP-based) to the same data-source.

The performance (only done preliminary testing) looks very promising as well.

A huge amount of kudos to the author!
I realise this is a dangerous subject, but I am genuinly curious: given the business you run and the work you do for the Freebsd team, why would you object to using c++, but not c?

I could understand why you would object to both, but why only the lower level language.
I don't agree. First, the people complaining about downvotes often really did write a comment worth being downvoted (I didn't look at your history). Second, HN is still very valuable if the top comments are all good - it's much less necessary that all good comments are on the top. And despite what people say, the key source of groupthink on HN is not the voting system (rather, the homogeneity of the user base.)
You need to specify a unique index for the attribute - you specified it as "tweet", but not how to scrape it. The error messages are not informative at this stage; it might be something else too.

I tried to fix your e.g. but couldn't get it to work (I tried //span@data-time (xpath) - what is the unique index of a tweet?)

>For example, people here generally eat lamb only once or twice a year

Well, as a Greek, I beg to differ. We eat lamb more than "once a year" (you probably refer to easter, but forget the mighty paidakia). Plus, this cow meat we mostly eat now is a recent development.

The traditional meat until 4-5 decades ago was lamb and goat (mostly because Greek domestic cows where too skinny and the grass unfit to support them. Post 1981 they were replaced with foreign cow breeds plus tons of imports).

As for hummus: "Greek" restaurants abroad are often mixed Greek/Middle-Eastern, and some are run by Lebanese and use the "Greek" just to attract some additional customers.

A funny aside: the traditional american "diner" (the chrome plated, hamburger joint etc) was more often than not, a Greek business. Greeks pwned the diner business in the US in the '40 to '80s. If you check a series like "Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives", a disproportionate percentage of iconic food joints are still in Greek hands, including the majority of NY hot dog stands. I have travelled extensively in the US (only missed Vermont), and I chanced upon several, such as:

• Lou Mitchels, the Chicago diner at the start point of Route 66. • Nick's, in Albq., NM at the crossing of Route 66 (old route) and Route 66 (later bypass) (!), • Leopold's, considered the best ice cream in Savannah, GA (and featured in top-10 US lists)• Ariston, on Route 66, IL, suggested by every guide, • Mike's Chilly Parlor, in Seattle, etc. nom nom nom nom...
I was going to suggest here that you do. And opensource your creation on github so we can all improve it.
"9. A tiny little sushi bar in some ran­dom sub­way sta­tion. Yet peo­ple wait in line, peo­ple book a stool at his sushi bar as much as a year in advance, a pri­ces star­ting around $600 a head. Peo­ple have been known to fly all the way from Ame­rica or Europe, just to expe­rience a 30-minute meal. In a sub­way station!"

Can authenticity be scaled up?

This particular establishment isn't really a humble 10 seat Tokyo sushi bar in my (perhaps odd) way of thinking, it is a very good simulation of one but wrenched from the ecology of such street food places.

So by acknowledging the mastery, we have changed the practice.

Selectorgadget is great; without checking out your creations in real life, did you consider taping selectorgadget to a proxy so you can scrape sites and store the paths you found in one go? That would massively enhance the process imho :) Maybe Apify can do that, but I hope they put that in github as well; i'm not a great fan of closed source/cloud development tools.
If you are doing this as a contractor, then this is partly the client being dumb and you not selling. You tell the client how many hours you can work and part time / full time is largely irrelevant. If pressed, tell the client that 20 hours per week IS full time (you have a business to run!)

There may be exceptions if the project has stiff hourly requirement needs that you need to fulfill because of a tight deadline, but those expectations should have been set up front (on both sides.)

Another exception may be a salaried W2 worker. Even in that case you may only get 20 - 30 good hours of coding in a week, but I suppose everyone has to play the paperwork game.

Ask HN: What was that article on designing as a team?
Not too long ago there was a link posted on HN on how to successfully come up with a design together as a team.

Out of my head it described a procedure somewhat like this:

Every team member should first think of the problem and put together a presentation stating the problem and their proposed solution. They also have to list pros and cons with their solution. Presentations are subsequently shared and members have to pick a favorite among all. In the end everybody meets to boil all suggestions down to the best overall solution.

Ring any bells?

Thank you.
