This is not true. Check http://www.meessen.net/AMeessen/STQ/STQ.pdf for a new theory extending the standard model. Beside predicting a bunch of new elementary particles, it also propose a new organization of elementary particles equivalent to the mendeliev table, except that it's a 3D structure. These new particles have all no electrict charge and may combine together as quarks to form hadron like particles my father call neutralons. These could stand for black matter.

I heard similiar pessimistic claims from physicist in my lab: there is nothing much left to discover in high energy physics. Maybe it's like a post partum depression thing. Just after a major and popular question has been answered, and before a new one, with a new theory, has been settled, some researcher may feel lost.

From my father's work, many of which is not published yet, I know that there is still allot to be discovered and tested. They just need a new theory. That's all.
"However, better layout (ie. more paragraphs) would help."

Yes. I saw that huge block of text after just reading the GigaOM article and just skipped right over it. I came here to see what people thought on the matter, but I wasn't about to invest it all on one post.

Still, downvoting the other guy that mentioned the length of the piece is pretty crappy. "It adds no value to the conversation". Hell it doesn't. His thought was exactly my thought and the cause of my reaction (to skip the War and Peace-length comment).

For a "comment that didn't add value" he sure got a lot of comments.
So Pythonistas, you want to get rid of the GIL...
I hope it didn't sound like I'm callous. The fact that Chez JJ is selective is a big part of what makes us so special. If I let in just anyone, the house might be full of partying fratboys and boring tourists. Instead, I bring together a group of people who share ideas, form lasting friendships, and even hire each other. Even if I accept a non-tech person, it's always because I feel he/she meshes well with the house, brings positive energy, and contributes to the family atmosphere.

I read a bit of subtext into this.

If you've got 2.5 weeks to turn a hackathon project into a "company" to pitch to investors, it could be that the underlying issue your cofounder has isn't related to the copy.

It could be related to the fact you took 2 days off during the middle of your sprint to get the project ready while she worked through.

But I could be completely off the mark.
I think it wants to compete with Sonos; Sonos has one comparable thing, now called "connectamp" (previously known as SP100, SP120) that retails for $499 and plugs directly into passive speakers

http://www.sonos.com/shop/products/connectamp

I have a complete Sonos setup in my home, with two of those, two "connect" and 3 "play5". It's not cheap but it works flawlessly, it's perfect. It only plays music (not movies) but can play your own music from a NAS or a computer on your network (but not from your Android or iPhone phone -- you'd have to copy the files on your NAS first).

This thing from Google seems to take inspiration from Sonos; if they really want to compete they should make it compatible with Sonos, and then why not; but why would Google want to be in the home entertainment sphere is what I'd like to know...
I think this is partly because whenever I've had an abrasive moment with someone like this, it's rarely because of the relatively minor issue at hand.

Apparently your problem is having PHBs and a dysfunctional org, not scrum.

> the scope of work is predetermined

That's bullshit/impossible for most software, and the exact opposite of being agile and catering to real needs, not imagined ones. That's the whole point of agile methodologies, embrace change.
At that rate, you're also paying for the lack of a long-term lease commitment, the location, and the amenities (in this case food, furnishings, and peers). Compared to hotels in these same area -- where you also pay for short-term convenience, furnishings, and immediacy of location/amenities -- it's still fairly cheap.
Yeah, you're probably right. I guess I don't consider Putin's direct actions to be corruption so much as bad governance (in some cases; in other cases he's superior to Yeltsin, but maybe that's a really low bar). The US President can spend $5b on a few helicopters to fly himself around without it being "corruption", so I assume the Russian president could build a secure "vacation home" somewhere. None of it is acceptable, but corruption vs. not is just semantics.

The sad thing is Russia has so much hydrocarbon fuel that they can probably go on like this for a long time. US and Europe having open immigration for talented Russians seems like the best we can do.

Not to be a pedant, but wouldn't thread-safe automatically follow immutable?

If a structure is immutable, how would you be able to fuck it up, even if you abuse it via threading? I would argue the relation is so strong, that something which isn't thread-safe cannot be immutable. But there may ofcourse be something which I'm missing.

Different languages and platforms handling different key concepts differently etc.

Is there some properties of Ruby which makes this possible, or gives you a need for a double-guarantee, or is the declaration here simply redundant?
I guess it depends what sort of track you're trying to get promoted in. If you're trying to get a raise and continue to be an individual contributor (i.e. not manage anyone) then I don't think WFH should really be an issue.

However, if you do want to become a lead and have reports then I think it makes perfect sense to promote those that go into the office. I personally would never want to report to someone who consistently works from home if I'm going into the office.

There's a difference between kissing ass and having a good relationship with your boss. A human relationship flourishes with actual proximity.
As naive as this comment seems, it's mostly true. Scrum is just a packaged set of practices intended to ease adoption of the agile philosophy. The end goal is to minimize process and maximize communication, which is exactly the same as "get shit done".
I'd love to see an example of this. I'm not saying I don't believe you but I'd really like to see an example and then look to see what Kaiser (a medical insurer and provider here in CA for the non-CA and a few other state folks) does since I don't think they would go for that.
Culture transmits largely by physical proximity. Osmosis if you will.

Culture transmits by communication, and nothing else. If you don't have a good (or equal) communication with your remotes, things are going to suck.

If you have a good communication with your remotes, they'll absorb culture faster than the most introvert people that are in the actual office.

Your post essentially lacks any base for the claims you make.
"for aspiring tech entrepreneurs on the bottom rung of the Silicon Valley ladder, those who haven’t yet achieved Facebook-level riches"

I know this is written as good spirited humour, or at least I hope so. But measuring success against zuckerberg's assets is an unhealthy preoocupation.

It's very typical of the "Get rich and retire by 30" crowd, for whom running a business is the byproduct of making money
It seems to me that a web application should not assist in its own hacking by allowing automated high-speed form submissions.

Why should a form that accepts human input accept input much faster than a human can generate it? Limiting form submissions to about one every second per IP should greatly reduce the value of brute force attacks without being perceptible at all to actual users.

If you're worried that will be too slow for your users, make it a tenth of a second. That should still be far too slow for enumeration or other brute force techniques to be worthwhile.
Fine with me. I can get a higher quality cable for cheaper than they would charge to pack it in, plus electronics retailers have an incentive to stock it at shitty margins for the upsell opportunity on the cable.

This looks really useful, and the API looks simple.

Just a quick reminder for those using any library like this; screenreader users (typically blind people) rely heavily on the keyboard to use their web browser. Adding your own shortcuts can really screw them over. It's usually best to make your custom shortcuts a feature that the user opts in to, off by default.

That can actually turn into a good thing. When you're not facing the other person, you should become better and better at communicating what exactly is the issue. At the very worse this leaves a paper trail that can indicate "see I worked on this"

For richmedia, the publisher (website owner) just accepts to serve a Javascript snipped, which most of the time request more Javascript from places the publisher has no control whatsoever. And it has to be inlined on the page because that script uses document.write like crazy.

because of that, the script has total control of the page.

That's why there's no rich media in most free email providers. Yahoo is the only one but they render the ad in an crossdomain iframe and force the ad to behave via a richmedia api
I skimmed over that blog post, and have no clue what it was about. too much copy indeed.

Getting people to read anything is difficult. Less words makes that easier.
Thank you also for 'pitch to investors'. When you 'pitch investors' (like in the blog post) you are presumably either, depending on your cultural reference points,

1) Hurling them at a man who wants to hit them with a bat (a bubble metaphor?)

2) Tying them to the ground with guy-ropes so they don't get blown away (I won't try and find a metaphor).

This is a trivial aside in the context of the article but it reads in such a dissonant way, up there with 'could of'.
Well my point wasn't about what it feels like, but the way the reaction was handled.

I would never send an email that said "You fucking changed my CSS". It happens ALL the time to developers. In fact refactoring, telling each other what you think is wrong in the code and how to fix it is a core part of team software development. Nothing is ever perfect. You can't be that protective of any part of your product.
What’s mean about that statement? You don’t have to read it like that. Always take the generous interpretation.
That is what I've done at a few projects for work. Worked quite well.

I disagree. If your team is senior enough, I think it is very important to give people delegated areas of responsibility. I've found people start to take pride in their work when this happens, because they know the buck now stops at them, and any outcome (positive or negative) is their own doing.

If you have everyone putting fingers in everyone else's work, why would you want to spend a week working on something when you know someone could just come in and undo it on a whim?

In saying that, it doesn't mean people shouldn't take feedback, though eventually, you'll have to start trusting your team to make decisions for the business. As a founder, you can't go around making every decision for your company, it doesn't scale that way.
Google's Project Glass - it's not for the young
1. Definitely not. If the story needs fit, wiggle, adjustment, then it's either not really done, or you raise the changes as another story for the next sprint.

2. Done is done - it's a binary yes/no thing. Done but not tested is not done. Done but needs documentation is not done. This varies from place to place, but code-done is not done, and coding is usually only 30-odd % of the work.

2b. If that's the case, then you're overcommitted. Next sprint, drop back to what you managed to get done this sprint. The idea is to get things repeatable and features turning out in a maintainable steady fashion.

In practice, it works - if there's some discipline from both the devs and the business. If stuff gets shoehorned in, or devs are pulled off to work on critical stuff, then it works about as well as you'd expect (ie. not very).

This comment was originally posted by shasty ut for some reason has since been deaded. I thought it was worth reposting:

Over commenting is a bad practice. Comments should be reserved for code which is difficult to understand no matter how well it can be written.

Forcing a developer to constantly shift between the english language and a programming language takes up precious screen space and insults the developer by constantly making her switch gears.

Inline comments are the worst abused. After that method doc for the purposes of supposed documentation.

A well named class in a stable framework needs no documentation as long as its interface is intuitive.

Chances are you are interacting with really bad systems and want some help. If the code is that bad, I doubt the developers comments would be much better.

No comments is the best if you can get away with it and have a self documenting set of interfaces.

We don't need patents in any industries at all if you judge them based upon their original intent -- to further the public knowledge

Good to see this one mentioned. Most people seem to forget that the original intent for all "IP-laws" originally was to broaden the public knowledge and to ultimately benefit the public.

That private entities was incentivized with limited monopolies which they could use to profit was merely a means, not the goal. These days everyone takes for granted that the means is the goal and the original goal is long forgotten.

If the original intent hadn't been forgotten as well as it has at this point, I doubt we would have seen the massive expanse of "IP-laws" which we have seen these last decades. Heck, back in the days there was no such thing as "IP". People were rational enough to realize there is no such thing as "intellectual property" which you can possess in a meaningful way.

Copyright law, patent-law and all these "IP-laws" should be reverted back to their original intent. Unfortunately that is not going to happen.

The US has way too much invested in so called "intellectual property" to go back on this now. Look at the US these days. What brings in the money? Traditional industry? All gone. Manufacturing? All outsourced.

In fact all the US has left of value is "intellectual property". Think Microsoft, Apple, Google and Hollywood. Now imagine the current US without the likes of those, or a world where their "property" could be had by anyone at no cost. Where would the US be then?

For all the bad things IP laws brings about (and don't get me wrong, I do think they are bad) there is a reason the US (and mostly the US) is pushing so hard on copyright-law and patent-law and trying to divert us from their original intent by instilling the idea of "intellectual property" as a legitimate one in the public mind.

Right now, this so called "intellectual property" is the only thing the US have left.
Thanks - I think...

Now, about the Node client. You are correct that there's been stalling over the last six or more months, but there's work on continuing the work on it, adapting it to new features in Riak and to push Frank's (original author) work on rewriting it in pure JavaScript towards the finish line.

Thanks again, your comment is very much appreciated!
Caduet (new) = Lipitor (off-patent in 2011) + Norvasc (patent protection ended 2007 after a suit). Zocor (2006) + Zetia = Vytorin.

There are hundreds of examples -- this is a totally standard patent expiration strategy in medicine. This whole area is called "ever-greening".

The weirdest one is getting an existing drug approved for a new use. This can be used to extend patent protection.
Do actual pythonistas really hate the GIL? I thought it was mostly a troll talking point, just like the whitespace.
The key take away is: if you don't look at YOUR server logs, but relay on 3rd party solutions, you are missing the picture. By large.

That Google analytics "guess" was abysmal. Client side logging is fine to complement server side.
It really doesn't matter to me whether I am working alone or with a team. Comments, in my world, are an inseparable part of writing code.

As an example, I do both hardware and software. I might work on FPGA code for months and then move on to the embedded code that runs the board. It is possible to not have to touch the FPGA code for months.

If I then have to go and modify something, say, add a register to implement a function I need, comments are a life-saver because you need to do a hard "context switch" in your head. I don't have time to read through code and figure out how a particular chunk-o-code works or what I meant by it. With FPGA code, where you are likely dealing with code structures that are controlling signals in the nanosecond range, you can't wing it. It either works or it doesn't and even minor code changes can make the entire thing go from working to a friggin mess. Comments are the "user manual" to the code.

Later on I might have to go and work on the iOS app that might access this hardware. So now you have FPGA code, embedded code (runs the board that has the FPGA) and iOS code.

Once again, even when I could be the only developer in the project without comments the entire thing becomes unmanageable very, very quickly.
In the article I wrote that there was no guarantee the book would be a success. The reason for that is that I didn't have any validation upfront whether the book is a good and viable product idea or not. I started work on it long before I joined the 30x500 class, and how the book came about is not exactly in the spirit of it, as it takes a whole different approach on finding audiences for products and all that.

The total time that went into the book is hard to put a number on. I'd say at least three months of dedicated writing, testing out theories in practice, editing, proof-reading and building up marketing momentum around it went into the book.
