Even in Visual Studio that's not true, at least not for me. Just move the cursor to the symbol in question, hit the menu key and select the 'Go to definition' or whatever menu item. Or better yet, map it to something like Ctrl+] which I usually do.
Sensing is easier to model out than intuition. Intuition requires the self component because it comes from feelings and past experiences. The current algorithms are important too, but they do not model the self.
Thanks, the rounded/tapered legs are a surprisingly important addition. Staining them would be wonderful, but that's more time intensive than staining the doors.

We offer Aeron chairs if folks want them. I tried the ProGrid (~10 way adjustable) chairs from Costco Business on a whim (I was stocking up on water cooler, fridge, etc). Costco has a great return policy, so no pressure. I've found them very adjustable and comfortable, so far no complaints or requests for an Aeron here. I should note that we got the mid-back version and it's a bit short for our 6' 6" @chewbranca.
Shoot me an email[1]. We're not open source, but I'm happy to show you the code!

As I said in comments above, if the source is really important to you, I can walk you through it and give you access so that you feel comfortable about what you're adopting. We're just not ready to open source the server yet.

You don't even need to pay for a server license until you're doing thousands of messages per second! At those scales, you should be able to afford cheap licenses. We're not focused on making small amounts of money from ramen startups or hungry students. We do have a good business in enterprise software to fund the free Bridge Cloud servers.

It's a shame that it's closed source. I'm trying to install it through the installer, and I'm in "missing shared object file" hell due to things not being named as the binary expects them to be.
To clarify, Bridge's binary serialization will be MessagePack.

Github's BERT is also good for binary serialization but we decided to go with MessagePack because of its wide language support.

I don't think BERT-RPC is necessarily _better_ for binary. But we referenced it in the roadmap as a good idea that we derived inspiration from.
The bricks are quite old. They may be treated, but you can flake them off with a screwdriver if you dig in.
Data that's not a good fit to be represented as relations is a completely different issue, and I agree with you on that.

Simple queries maybe simple to write, but they're still boilerplate you're better off without. An ORM lets you work at a higher level of abstraction.

> A lot of the nitty gritty of writing relational queries by hand (as noted, escaping, listing the fields to be queried etc) can be abstracted by a set of helper functions, and maintaining these is much simpler than fixing problems with the relational mapping.

Except that you just started to roll your own ORM, and I can guarantee that maintaining it will not stay simple for very long.

> If your join is directly expressed in SQL, you solve the problem by modifying the join.

Yep, that's what you do with a good ORM.

>There's no additional headache involving figuring out how the object model turns into tables and queries.

Wrong - as long as you have a relational DB at one end and an object model at the other, this additional headache is unavoidable.
We're really focused on lightweight simplicity right now. Keeping Bridge lean is a priority.

In terms of a web api vs. glue code, Bridge requires very little if any glue code. Check out our roadmap. We do have a REST endpoint planned. https://www.getbridge.com/about/roadmap
See my comment above, but so far very happy with them.
> I should make a video of me using multiple cursors, because I feel I'm not explaining it well at all.

I'd love to have this explained better with good examples of where it's useful, other than just changing variable names.

I understand this is one of the most used features but I have a hard time seeing a lot of use for it, but that's probably because I come from a single-cursor editor background.
First of all, ext(2|3|4) and XFS filesystems honor fsync. That's what all the noise about Firefox and SQLite was all about. Secondly the HP RAID controllers I'm familiar with disable the drive write cache by default, and throw dire warnings if you try to turn it on, and make you ACK your choice like:

Without the proper safety precautions, use of write cache on physical drives could cause data loss in the event of a power failure....

The bottom line is that Database pros insist on and get actual durability, and with a battery backed write cache, it's not painful.
Can you please put all of this on your site? This discussion is only temporary and many of us are interested in the particulars.
So let them, let them have to do that work and share email addresses, which would potentially be a PR nightmare if discovered, and users did not consent. I'd rather do that than willingly give multiple domains my ID letting one service unify them, and share my ID across multiple sits if the service chooses to. And who's to say people don't already use multiple email addresses?

people like to feel smugly superior.
My suspicion is that branded hardware manufacturers are uniformly reasonably good in quality. White box vendors may vary widely: some are good, but some (many? few?) are really, really bad. This can skew data.

It's also possible that it's getting more difficult to accurately spec systems, to enforce vendor quality (Dell gets a bad batch of drives, they can 1) detect it and 2) tell the vendor to stuff it, Ahmed's Boxez'R'Us may not have that leverage or depth of experience), and to do burn-in testing of their own systems.

That said, I've had good and bad experiences with big-name and white box vendors alike.
It's common knowledge now that OpenID has severe usability problems. As much as I wanted it to work, none of my apps' visitors (hell, back in 2006) could understand what it was or how to use it.

BrowserID, however, has now fixed most of these issues, and it's very straightforward to use. To try it out, you can have a look at http://www.yourpane.com/
Did you read the article you just linked to? Here's a direct quote "From a social welfare perspective though, first degree [perfect] price discrimination is not necessarily undesirable. That is, the market is entirely efficient and there is no deadweight loss to society."

Without price discrimination, unless you're operating tax-free and subsidy-free there is always a dead-weight loss. Perfect price discrimination eliminates it. It is literally right there in the article you just linked to.

The beauty of this is that it is well within Dropbox's rights to determine what they deem savory and unsavory for their business, not you...
With git, you can basically do the same thing and a lot more. You could probably even alias your favorit SVN commands for easier learning. One of the main problems with SVN is that it works with files and not commits, you work on 3 files, commit your work, and SVN will let me only update 1 or 2 files, I think this is horrible and people do it... a lot.

You are not forced to have local branches and commits that you didn't push to the main repository, but having them as options is a step forward. Also I can't imagine SVN working as good as git in the open source realm.
That's interesting. Back when I was using Windows, I had some tools (like WinRAR, I think) with that sort of license. I hated it. One of the things I really loved when switching to Linux is that I didn't have to deal with that sort of nonsense for an archiving tool, or for any other tool I needed but didn't use often.
Nice vim config, now autoinstalable
Why waste the mental space, especially with something you don't know you'll be using again? Not to mention the fact that api documentation can be difficult to find or may not exist at all. The Autocomplete knows exactly what methods are available.

I wouldn't disagree about learning the libraries you use frequently, but I personally work on a huge stack with more than 80 dependencies and memorizing their api's just isn't time well spent.
I mentioned the exact same thing to someone a couple of weeks ago - I think her name was Stella, and she's been posting for a startup recently. I'm not a professional contractor like many, but I do like doing freelance gigs to supplement my day-job income. However, finding suitable gigs, dealing with negotiations and chasing down deadbeat clients make it really unpleasant given what I really want to do is make some extra cash after hours. I don't want to deal with all the overhead of running my own business atop managing my own career and family.

I would happily give up a percentage of my rate to someone who could get me ~15 hours a week worth of work at a market rate and insulate me from a lot of the overhead that I simply don't have time to deal with. Just like Hollywood stars focus on being Hollywood stars and leave the business of Hollywood to agents, I'd like to focus on my strengths and leave the business to someone else.

That's an interesting point. Laptops get replaced faster, and when a laptop is replaced, it is typically left in a non-running state in which it will not experience or report errors. Desktops are often left running for months or years after they've been replaced, either through laziness or because of a desire to keep them around for a special purpose.
So what about robot vs robot? Will one be the first to make a decision based on the assumption the other will be rock, and then it will choose paper? Will this be the outcome 100% of the time?

I'm well aware of the history. I was ironically posing the question in a probably slightly mean-spirited attempt to poke fun at him for not having written any notable software. I suppose he deserves credit for the philosophical contributions. The whole initials thing is ultimately pretty stupid. Maybe I was trying to get at why it's even become a convention. Why there is so much ego in the field in general.

I agree that a shrinking percentage of society is doing agricultural work, and certainly many specific tasks of grunt-work-of-yore are less grunt-y and more automated.

But my assertion was not that "automation has not started doing any of the grunt work we once did". My assertion was that the segment of society that WAS doing grunt work is mostly not elevated out of grunt work TODAY. I assert that, rather, those people are mostly either still doing grunt work, or else are unable to find a useful role in society (a leftier turn of phrase would be "they are being abandoned by society"). I can certainly concede that there has been SOME improvement in this, but it's vastly less than starry-eyed optimists seem to suggest.

Remember that this followed mwd_1 stating a vision of the future, in which "humans are freed from the grunt work they do now", by which I assume (s)he meant not just today's variant of grunt work, but grunt work in general. Basically, my whole claim is that techno-utopianism is unrealistic, and it is unrealistic for social reasons, not technological reasons. Not that it stops me from wishing for it.

Oh, and a minor unimportant correction: the phrase is "grunt work", not "grudge work", at least in most English-speaking communities. Look it up.

Seems cool.

Hasn't AeroFS/Regular been in beta for years now? I like this idea but perhaps some focus on the core product so the company survives would suit them better.

Additionally - how do they emulate any kind of locking? Backup to s3 is easy but multi-device sync requires substantially more coordination that needs a lock of some variety.
It says a lot about the work ethic of a company when they are willing to dedicate a weekend of their own time to build something with their own two hands. It shows that the team can problem solve together on many levels, has common sense, and that they enjoy working hard. As an outside member of this construction effort, I, the "fiancee LJ", appreciated being involved in the start-up process because it provided me a way to contribute and be part of the start-up spirit. Why should my fiancee get to have all the fun? In my opinion, the benefits of this project (team building, original furniture, bragging rights, significant money savings) far outweighed what would have been gained with the satisfaction of a trip to Ikea.

I was intrigued reading this to see what my inbox would say about Meebo's recruiting.

In May 2010 a recruiter spammed the Hadoop mailing lists with a "Data Engineer (Analytics)" in MV. A month later I was blessed with an email from the same recruiter for the same job sent to my @apache address. Another month later he posted the job on LI's Hadoop group.

Fast-forward one year, a new recruiter spammed the mahout user mailing list saying he was looking for "Engineers with Machine Learning expertise".

Finally 2 months later I got an email sent to my @apache address from the second recruiter for a "Data Engineering Lead" position.

So it seems that they haven't used LI a lot and mostly rely on those "other channels" and direct emails. I personally find it disrespectful to send recruiting emails to user mailing lists but I guess recruiters don't know/care about it.

[book]Getting Real by 37 Signals, old one but good one.
I've been a paying customer for a month or two. Seems like a very nice update, however it broke git for me.

$ git commit -m "Small fixes."

error: pathspec 'fixes.' did not match any file(s) known to git.
I just never understood how the hell it worked.

1) I would go to a website, it would ask me to register or sign in with "OpenID". It would tell me a little bit about OpenID "Yahoo, ___, and ___ are OpenID providers. If you have a Yahoo ID then you have an Open ID".

2) WTF is the point of an OpenID then?! If I could just sign in with a Yahoo account I thought...

3) I try to sign in with my Yahoo ID like it said. It fails every time. WTF.

4) I go back to Yahoo to GET an OpenID. It tells me I already have one. I try to get one from other "providers" and somewhere along the way I always get misdirected or the sign up / registration process just fails and I just get sick of the whole OpenID-Mind-Game and sign in with my facebook account.

After 3 or 4 mind games I became extremely frustrated and soulfully HATED OpenID. It was all over the place, I didn't get it. It couldn't work for me. So I felt like it was a feature I was not allowed to have. Just thinking of the OpenID logo and name evokes feelings of annoyance. So the brand is trashed is what I'm saying.
I'm aware that you can do the same things, just with a lot more user complexity. I prefer simpler tools if the complexity does not strike me as advantageous towards completing my primary task -- writing software.

As for OSS, I'm much happier with the results of the PostgreSQL or FreeBSD development communication models than I am with the results of git/Linux style of development coordination. I think it's fair to judge by results.

Yes, I have some understanding about it so I can explain a little, but it's necessary to learn from an Enlightened being directly to get perfect understanding. The good news is that it is indeed simple, but it's not easy for everyone to accept, no matter their age or educational career.

The principle means that something is determined - like the formula in arithmetic whereby 1 + 1 = 2; as long as the question (and definitions of factors) remains the same then the result will always be exactly the same.

I can state that the fixed principle of the world is that things make results repeatedly through what is inside themselves.

We can find that everything that exists in the world does so through actions, and the structure which we can verify is produced through the process of activities is that of an object which moves through three states (dimensions), changing itself depending on the specific things (causes) in the object.

A clear and simple example is that of fruiting trees. An apple tree only knows how to make apples because that's what's encoded inside itself. Through the process of its life, if it can produce a fruit with seeds, thereby keeping its own origin, it can be reborn again if it's got the right environment.

The golden rule is not so helpful because the problems to necessitate the rule are not present in the rule itself (like commandments). People who don't already have virtue can't awaken their conscience through the golden rule (to get the result - morality) because the very source of the solutions (the problems) are missing. Instead, when people learn and correctly understand the principle they don't need to be told to do good and not to do bad, they naturally start to recognize from what causes good and bad results happen to themselves, so they don't want to do anything that would harm themselves after they confirm.
