I hadn't seen this closing paragraph before: "Apple designs Macs, the best personal computers in the world, along with OS X, iLife, iWork and professional software. Apple leads the digital music revolution with its iPods and iTunes online store. Apple has reinvented the mobile phone with its revolutionary iPhone and App Store, and is defining the future of mobile media and computing devices with iPad."

When did they switch out the "Apple ignited the personal computer revolution..."?
If you know the exact dimensions you're going to query, then you can construct a data cube to fit your exact scenario up front, and indeed, those will return fast.

BigQuery allows you to explore the data without the pain of setting up your star schemas upfront. Think of it this way: you've got XXX Tb of log data, and you have a new question you want to ask it. At this point, you're heading back to Map-Reduce, or Pig/Hive, etc. BigQuery is based on Google's Dremel (check the paper, great read), and has all the operational + performance learnings from wide deployment at Google. Type in your "SQL like" query and BQ takes care of all the rest.. within an order of seconds.

tl;dr: you're comparing apples and oranges.
The legal system is tricky. The US seized his money from all over the world not just NZ. Anything from NZ would likely be returned but everything else, the US will ask Kim Dotcom to come to the US to litigate it (if you want your money 'sue us'). He won't be able to do that, since he would then be open to be served properly and sent to jail again (unfairly I might add).
Thats a little creepy.

AI BOT for Pool Billiard game on Facebook
Hello! Let me introduce my fully automated AI game BOT for Pool Billiard game on Facebook
The problem doesn't just exist with small companies and startups. I've worked with C-level people from established companies who are no more self-aware; they feel the job title makes them important rather than responsible. They feel the job title means they work less rather than work more. In both cases the latter is true.

I'd take someone seriously as a CEO if they behaved like one and that includes involving your colleagues in what you do, be they the board of a fortune 500 company or a few interns for a bootstrapping startup. The arrogance that you are the only person who has good ideas is what kills companies and that goes double for startups of any ilk.

BB10 is just turning into the Duke Nukem OS of our time.

It's sad that a company with so much talent can be mismanaged into something as horrible as this, but on the other hand it's hard not to laugh when you read about their continued failures.

We are talking about a company which released a tablet with a OS they called complete, which couldn't check email. They are so completely out of touch with what people want, that there is no way they can make.

Even if the do get BB10 out the door, it will be a disaster. It will be underwhelming. It will be a monument to what bad management can do with product delivery.

I'm with ars technica on this one: RIM is on death watch.

Sure. And in return, you can't use constants, but must instead type out 3.141592653... to whatever decimal place you deem important. Nor typedefs. Nor named flags (`FileRead | FileWrite` is just long-hand for `3`). At the end of the day we'll see who's pulling their hair more.

Then we'll go back in a couple weeks, and look at the same code again. Mine's wordy. Yours is cryptic, and requires looking up the use of everything.

This is a retarded decision which I do not support.

IE6 fine, IE7 fine but not IE8. IE8 is required for most corporate environments where they haven't killed of Windows XP yet. That is a surprisingly large amount of people.

If this happens, we'll fork jQuery 1.9 and support it separately.
I have the same problem and found a solution, maybe it helps for you.

1password supports Dropbox integration, and it provides a web page inside your dropbox account (i.e. password protected) that you can log into with your master password to check them out.

It is not automatic nor integrated, and it does not allow you to add new passwords, but at least you can easily copy and paste them on the iPad.
I remember that the original idea was to create white/yellow page online (it was very costly to print all these white pages). Then came commercial services. You were billed according to the number you dialed (from free -3613- to very expensive service -3617-).
That was my first online experience and that was magic :-) There was also a hacking scene on pirated servers where you can meet a lot of people (and it was on the free number of course).
How is this "dropping support" for old IE? They've said the 1.9 branch will still receive bug fixes for a while. I doubt they'll leave the 1.9 branch behind (in regards to new API features) until IE8 gets close to IE6's current market share.

Interestingly, right now in Oxford UK is being tested a precooler for the sabre jet engine designed to power skylon spaceplanes to Mach 6 in air breathing mode (before going to orbit once out of the atmosphere with stored oxidiser).

This precooler is a crucial and fascinating bit of technology, cooling the incoming air down by 1000Kelvin in 100ms without itself frosting up, so it can be compressed and burnt. It is designed to solve exactly the problem outlined in the reddit comment. There was a fascinating BBC article about this recently:

I wonder if the code would be a bit cleaner if they dropped IE9 and year-old Firefox / Chrome / Safari support too. That would allow them to use new stuff like XMLHttpRequest 2, ECMAScript 5 Strict Mode, Typed Arrays, requestAnimationFrame and CSS transitions / animations.
Canon PowerShot A3300 Deal
At first look the canon eos new PowerShot A3300 IS doesn’t look like the finale of a millennium and a half of photo advance, but it is.

Why would you cool down to later compress (and heat up again)?

Sounds like a shotgun solution to the passer by such as myself

Edit: it is a shotgunsolution... They just added an old turbine after the cooler component to test it.

No, Groovy is used in many other places than Grails.
One can think of the Gradle build automation tool (http://gradle.org/), for instance, which uses Groovy as a DSL.
But actually, one of the very big use cases for Groovy outside of Grails is as an embedded DSL, for business-oriented languages, to further customize the business rules of an application, for configuring it, etc.
Groovy's used in many sectors: healthcare, insurance, banking, travel, scientific simulations, biomedical, etc.

Hi Lupatus, thanks!

Well, today you have to know some biology and have access to lab (or community lab like bio-curious or genspace) to "execute" the biology. We are trying to abstract biology to make it more accessible to people outside of the research labs then you can order the DNA and transform living things in your kitchen :-)
Have you reached the MVP stage yet? I'm wondering whether it's viable to release before having a professionally made design.
I have to agree and it happens in all areas but actually in a slightly different form usually. To take the analogy from the post, you start walking 20 miles a day and then someone says that it seems easy to do that so why not up it to 30 miles a day. Before you know it, the 40 mile day is the expectation, off days are not allowed and you fall further and further behind, eventually succumbing to burnout and the whole thing ends badly.

Software projects are the same. Nearly every company I've worked at, a senior manager says "Well if we can get these guys doing all this and they seem to be working well within their boundaries, lets push them harder". Pushing people harder can be good if they are really just slacking, but for the most part, people can't sustain more than is comfortable for long periods of time without their work or their mental state suffering. The end result is crappy code, people who leave companies or those that become non-functioning because they're burned.
Definitely one of my favorite talks.

Don't be so sure about that. China itself is currently the main growth driver for consumer goods, even for companies like Apple.

It doesn't have 3G, so I suspect it's probably not meant as a mobile device and you are expected to back it up with some local wifi enabled file server.

RIM board under pressure to split company or partner with Microsoft
I think in half the places I've worked I'd be drunk all the time and the CEOs would be bankrupt. It would definitely focus the mind of people who book in meetings that they really know they won't make but throw in there to placate people and show that they're taking something seriously.

A few questions:

* Conflicts of interest: how do I know my Product X is given fair treatment if you have another client with a similar Product X'. Say they have a higher price and your cut would be larger if you sell theirs, not mine.

* if you collapse, I stop using your service or leave for another sales team, do I get to keep the contacts?

* what measures do you have in place to prevent staff selling my contacts to my competitors or leaving with the client list?

I'm sorry, my comment was aimed for someone that has worked with Mansfield at Apple before. This is not a place to start a flame war, take that stuff elsewhere.
Forced obsolescence doesn't mean people aren't still using it and it doesn't mean that because Microsoft stop patching that it's still vulnerable. Using it after April 2014 is not a problem.

The NHS in the UK has over 1 million Windows XP deployments out there still on NHSnet which is a nationwide secure private WAN. A lot of software vendors have to support that.

Your view is popular but naive.

It had better market penetration because the terminals were free. FTA, they tried the same service in Ireland, without the subsidies, and market penetration was nil. It was a dismal failure.
At Mach 6 it's just too hot and energetic to compress and stabley combust, as I understand. Recall that stagnation temperature is a function of the square of velocity. The reddit article says the compressor 'puts heat back in' but that's a byproduct rather than the aim. The aim of the compressor in this engine is to get enough moles of oxygen in the combustion chamber with enough moles of hydrogen to combust and produce enough thrust. You couldn't compress the air sufficiently to squeeze it into the combustion chamber if you didn't cool it a bit first.

This is my understanding based on reading what's publically available on the net anyway.
here's to hoping that google will step in here as they did with linux and make it run anyway...
Great post. When I started working in Silicon Valley over a decade ago, as a fresh graduate from college, I heard, "It's a small Valley" more than I can count. I smiled and nodded, and I didn't really understand how true this statement is.

Every year my career continues, I appreciate it more. Technology companies -- successful ones, at least -- are built around the magic of assembling extremely talented people and focusing their attention on the same set of problems. Companies don't last, but talent usually does, and people grow.
Or is the story that the game was optimized in assembly? Check this great discussion in stackoverflow.

All this talk about IE usage numbers led me to a website Microsoft made to say goodbye to IE6: http://www.ie6countdown.com/

The site reports that in the US, IE6 has 0.6% market share — relatively nothing. But look over at China: 22.4% of its 500 million Internet users still browse with IE6. Moving forward benefits the Internet as a whole, but the Chinese market is one instance where backward compatibility is important.
I get something new out of this every time I watch it.

France Telecom was a company which happens to have the government as shareholder. The company itself was making money by providing telecommunication services. As someone living in France, you did not had to pay France Telecom money if you were not using its services. France Telecom was only funded through invoicing customers.

This is not the same than let say EDF, the French energy monopoly, where all the research to get nuclear energy was funded by the government through the CEA[1]. France Telecom had enough money to fully fund its research centres. They had in fact some of the best research labs.

I'd settle for a single bottle of decent wine/beer with the proviso that MDs and above who turn up late just to show how important they are still get to pay it and I would never have sobered up since 1995 (apart from 2 glorious years at a hedge fund in startup mode). I used to lock the door to meetings 15 minutes in and refuse to let late comers in ... you can imagine how well that turned out the first time my boss and his boss missed one of my meetings.

The sysadmin’s essential diagnostic toolkit
Agree. Facebook is a tool whose scope of use can be adjusted by each user's needs and expectations. It is true that the setting changes are not the most user-friendly / intuitive. It's also fair that some people want to cut off certain dependency of any tool, but it's not the tool to blame but a personal choice to make.
Ok how about this then. If you're still supporting an unsupported OS why do you care about using the cutting edge version of a JS library?

I spent all last weekend looking for a bag to carry my transformer in. There seem to be two standard sizes for bags that it falls between; you get the full-sized satchel/briefcase, or the small taller-than-it-is-wide size. (Do a google search for manbag and you'll see the two options I'm talking about). The latter is a perfect fit for my 7" netbook or my kindle, but infuriatingly slightly too small for the transformer, while the former feels like a cavernous void when my transformer's the only thing in it. I guess the logic is "if the guy's buying a larger-than-A4 bag it's because he wants to carry three folders full of papers", but I'm amazed no-one's selling something that's just a minimum-sized case and shoulder strap for a tablet.

So for me the bags amplify the difference between a 10" and a 7". Usually I just carry the satchel everywhere, but I'd feel like a jerk taking it to a restaurant or a gig; the small bag fits on my shoulder without thinking about it and looks good enough that I'm happy to wear it anywhere. I feel like it should be possible to make a 10" tablet this practical - it's not much heavier - but I think the bag industry hasn't caught up yet.

Ask HN: Startup Documents and suggestion
Hi

Recently i joined a startup game company which had 2 more additional programmers.

I was assigned to develop CORE GAME SYSTEM. things went well for two weeks, i developed a basic framework for the system and synced with the dropbox of the team(NO source control yet).

It was then i noticed that there is no code from the rest of the team begin uploaded to DropBox. When asked about it , they said they will share the code only when the need arise. (So basically they have no knowledge of software engineering or source control).

Now they r asking me to sign a piece of WORD document containing,

--------
1. All work I create and upload to Dropbox instantly becomes the full property of GAMECOMPANY.
2. If I am to take any work from this Dropbox and use it for personal gain, unless stated acceptible by the Project manager, I will not use or distribute any work that is the property of the team, including any and all things in the team's dropbox, in any manner without explicit permission from the head of the team, TEAMLEADER. I understand that if I do so, I am liable for any all possible damages that may result directly or indirectly from my use of these items, and I will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
--------

Yet no code in Dropbox apart from mine.

1. Im confused whether to continue working for them..
2. and what are the legal docs usually signed by startup teams (Game/Non game)?

Help hners..
Mine works well only if I use it regularly. After a few days of non-use it dries up - even when kept closed. It might be because I haven't yet swapped out the original ink barrel though.

Have you had similar issues?
