I usually agree with Chris Dixon, but here I believe he is working from an incorrect premise.

First of all it is not at all certain that the integrated approach is winning for smart phones. In fact depending on what definition of winning one uses, it can be easily said that the integrated approach is losing. There are more android devices being sold than iOS devices and the gulf is widening.

Here Dixon uses a bit of sleigh of hand by stating that Android is integrated now because Google bought Motorola. This is not true. Google bought Motorola for the patents, there is no indication that they will change their Android strategy. They still offer the Android software to all other makers at the same terms as they do to Motorola. And furthermore, Motorola is not even the largest Android phone maker. That honor belongs to Samsung and they are very much distinct from Google.

It is also not exactly true that the non-integrated approach always compromises performance. Remember the days of the old pre OSX macs? Those were truly integrated devices with a closed and proprietary architecture from top to bottom. Were they better performing than the PCs? Not even close.

There is an advantage in performance for the non-integrated approach that business people tend to discount. A non-integrated system is much more open and thus it can easily benefit from improvements from unexpected directions. Thus, for PCs we had the improvements like better sound cards, consumer grade video accelerators, and a shitload of improvements of motherboards, memory peripherals, etc. before apple got them. The open PC was ready to take advantage of any brilliant idea anybody in the world ever thought of. For the mac one usually had to get permission from the Apple headquarters first and Apple management were not always perfect or fast.

This is the great advantage of open systems. Their disadvantage is that there are usually problems with interfaces, etc. This was not much of an issue for the relatively large and well powered PC, but may be an issue for cell phones where power, heat dissipation and space are all at a premium.

In general, it seems that the integrated approach wins out in the beginning, when there is no broad marketplace open systems can take advantage of. But after a while, the non-integrated approach wins out. It seems that relatively less-integrated smart phones are slowly but surely beating their more integrated peers. For tablets, however, integration still rules.
Also, anyone that never turns off their computer would know that 'stopping' isn't required for dust to build up on the fan blades, dust will quite easily build up on even moving parts.

You don't need to pick one of those three. Maps and arrays cover most cases. The rest of the time you can implement capabilities on your types (touched on in the article) and do some type assertions.

The really odd thing about the original statement is that this guy "can't imagine" working without generics. That is a remark that could only be made by someone who is fixated on modeling all problems in terms of type systems.

I think it's just a function of how the liquid in the plant's cells settled by gravity. The denser liquid is pulled to the bottom by gravity while thinner liquid floats to the top. The plant must grow toward the thinner liquid, away from gravity.
Without saying anything about this particular situation, can I just point out for the four hundredth time that $780 invoices generate far, far, far more stupidity than $7,800 or $78,000 invoices do? This is the fault of both people who send $780 invoices and people who generate work likely to cause $780 invoices. Many of you will be able to pick whether you are either of these types of people. I suggest being neither.
maybe its more like suburbia than a ghost town.
The innocuous possibility is that prices change several times during the day of a flight, and price changes for incomplete orders cause bad system behavior and a strange user experience.
> Erlang values are not mutable. You can't have a 4, lose the execution pointer to another process, and when it comes back you suddenly have a 5 in that variable. (Barring arbitrary C, of course.) That's the aspect of "immutable" that matters from a multithreading point of view.

Which is of no relevance to Erlang in the first place, since it does not expose threads to the developer.

> I think that's basically what Go does, though I haven't quite studied it enough to be sure.

Go has mutable structures and mutable bindings.

Brackets probably has been in development longer and is more complete in a way. But the point is that although it goes a little bit in the right direction, it doesn't go far enough.

The code editor is a component that adds a button to the left hand side, which then opens up a window with CodeMirrors built in for editing the HTML/CSS/Browser side CoffeeScript/ Node.js on server side/external css/js files/package.json for the selected component. Then when you hit save it sends all of those files to the server, compiles CoffeeScript, runs npm if necessary. If there are errors it pops them up in a message box. If there are no errors it restarts the server and reloads the page. So it is an IDE.

Another similarity is the idea of keeping together different aspects of a component such as the HTML and CSS. I take it farther by including the other parts I mentioned above.

Blogging is just the most common type of application so I need to make sure it works for that for starters.

"In a language with closures and Go-style goroutines and channels, the amount of programmer effort required to manage memory would be absolutely immense without a garbage collector."

That isn't the whole story though. Microsoft Singularity achieved this with the exchange heap: closures and Go-style goroutines and channels can exist without concurrent GC, or even without GC at all on a per-goroutine basis.
Certainly. But turn that around --- if all of the major Go developers were at Canonical, even if it were precisely the same language today, would Rob and Google use it?

So just because he didn't have the foresight to have a signed contract, it's grounds for him to get f*ed by a well funded startup?

Seriously?
The data is also skewed with false positive whereby the company appears alive but is not. My previous, now defunct startup's domain responds with a redirect to another domain.
This is a good point - would _you_ trust your medical data/history to someone who'd screw over a graphic designer for $780? With no other indicators of reputation - what's everybody else's opinion on what this startup might do when a medical insurance company show up and says "$10,000 to see $persons medical history"?

Maybe the designer is misleading us all, and there's a very good reason with the company are reluctant to pay $780 for some work the designer thought they'd asked for. But surely in the field they've chosen, reputation and appearance of trustworthiness have orders of magnitude more value that this spat?
Funny thing that they design with tables but use getElementById for the JS when document.images would have been enough.

Spanking is demonstrably not an effective way to discipline kids. There is no measurable correlation between whether a child is spanked, and a greater level of discipline or later life outcomes. Numerous research projects have shown that spanked kids do not behave any better, and several have seemed to suggest that kids who are spanked very frequently demonstrate greater aggression and more problems with discipline later in life.

I understand that because it involves our parents and our children, this is a subject that evokes strong emotional responses. But the objective research is very clear, which is why spanking and other physical punishments are no longer part of any professional educational or child-care profession in the U.S.

In the past few decades there have been significant advances in understanding how the human mind and brain develops during childhood. The results of these advances are taught in academia (i.e. a newly minted kindergarten teacher will likely have learned about them), but poorly disseminated to parents.

The essential thing to understand is that a child is not a human. They are in the process of becoming human. So when a child breaks a rule it is not the same thing as when you break a rule. It represents a step in their development that must be guided. So discipline is not about punishment, it is about teaching and coaching.
>But it's inefficient:

Sometimes it's not about extracting the maximum possible dollar amount. Artists like sharing their work with other people. Many of them would gladly do it for free if they could, but charge because they have to make a living just like everyone else.

>some kind of auction mechanism is needed to figure out the right price for a ticket.

If Louis is happy with what he's making off the tickets, then they're set at the right price. What you're proposing would essentially lock out many of his fans that couldn't afford the "right" price that would be set with an auction system.

The traditional problem with intentionally setting an artificially low price is that resellers would buy up tickets, sell them back at market prices, essentially locking out those fans and also reaping the additional profit that the artist was intentionally forgoing.

What Louis is trying to do is design a system that locks out the resellers, and in turn essentially turns the ticket selling process into a lottery for those fans that care enough about seeing him to go buy a ticket early.

As long as there are more people that want to see him than can fit in the venue, there's no way to make it totally fair for everyone. But the approach he's taking allows him to make an amount he's happy with while keeping the financial cost of getting in at a point that he feels is fair to the fans.

It may be inefficient from a pure market standpoint, but, frankly, I think it's going to accomplish exactly what he wants it to.

The Go developers (with, perhaps, the exception of ken - but he's a pretty special guy) have all worked in languages that they didn't design or write the compilers for, so I'm not sure what you're getting at.
Right. Or, when you're talking to a potential prospect who has just been referred by your middle school teacher, you say "I know you've got a web site at the moment, but it probably got done by somebody who does web sites for dog walkers and legal firms. Do you ever look at it and think it was written by someone who just doesn't get you, and what you do, and what your parents want in a school? Think that maybe the site doesn't understand that Mrs. Tanaka is terrified that Sakura won't ever know her grandmother if Mrs. Tanaka picks the wrong place? I know where Mrs. Tanaka is coming from.

In fact depending on what definition of winning one uses, it can be easily said that the integrated approach is losing. There are more android devices being sold than iOS devices and the gulf is widening.

If you define winning as profits generated (which is an important definition because sustained profits earn you the right to keep playing, while market share does not), then the integrated approach is definitely winning, as Apple consumes the lion's share of mobile profits (there are several sources but for reference see here: http://www.asymco.com/2012/05/03/the-phone-market-in-2012-a-...).

How things play out in 10 years is anyone's guess, but for now the profits, momentum and sentiment remain firmly on the side of the integrated approach.

Thanks for looking at the video. One thing I should mention is that I have spent a day or so on the UI since then so it looks a lot more modern at the moment.

Anyway, I don't see how my project is related to OPML Editor really.. then again its not really easy to see the details of what that does from the web site.

But anyway my thing is about GUI controls that include the front and back end code and plugins to install them. GUI controls/widgets are an old and obvious and proven concept. The separation between front and back end coding, CSS and some other things that have happened with web development were practical approaches for awhile, but now with the web as platform, they are obviously a bit of a regression. There is just a very strong tradition now, a whole generation of CSSers and RESTers that just can't think any other way and unfortunately sometimes don't even talk to each other.

Widgets and plugins are a no-brainer.

So basically what we have confirmed is that I have more useful software development knowledge than the entire web team at Adobe.

When Integrating Search Engine Optimisation in Web Design
