Obviously these are rules of thumb and do not apply to sophisticated agents that actually know what they are doing.

> In an M&A type stock swap deal the reason this works out is that the merger itself can create value

This is the exception not the rule. If you think you are a) sophisticated and b) in this rare situation - then disregard everything I have said.

> Voluntary trade can create value out of thin air.

If and only if both parties are sophisticated and value the exchanged items correctly. Trade can create value out of thin air. It can also turn value into thin air (booms/busts/fraud etc.).

Capitalism and trade are double edged swords - all I want people to do is watch the downside while they grab the upside.

FreeBSD is still used! In fact, it's one of the more innovative OSes. There are tonnes of features in FreeBSD that just aren't available in any other OS. I highly doubt Apple had anything to do with its diminishing popularity, however. In fact, I would say it's due more to the increase in virtualisation (which FreeBSD does not perform well at in comparison to Linux) and the increase in user-friendly Linux distributions (FreeBSD is trickier to set up; that was ok when Linux was tricky too).
Because it's not self-powered? They do an NFC model too.

I created Lake a couple of years ago, which allows one to create ones makefile in C++.

A header and footer are added to the makefile, and it's then compiled using ones C++ compiler. Afther that it's run, and that's the point where ones other sources are compiled.

It was inspired by Icmake (by my C++ prof). It never really caught on (I didn't really promote it), but I still think it wasn't a terrible idea (apart, maybe, from it being language specific).

No, and statistically, neither have practically any church-going Americans. Yes, I was talking about a generalization, I know there are liberal churches.

For me personally, I don't think it's possible. I'm an atheist, and any church that's liberal enough to allow atheism frankly doesn't have enough verve to really hold my interest as a church, you know?
That it was the start of a new mobile platform. It made a little sense at the time. I think the logic was that Windows Mobile 6 to Windows Phone 7 just sounds like a rebranding with a version number increase, whereas "Windows Phone 7 Series" sounds like a reboot, a new lineup.

It's also entirely possible they planned separate editions, not unlike the basic/pro/touch editions of Windows Mobile 6. So when they announced it as Windows Phone 7 Series they has two or three versions in the pipeline but come release the had cancelled all but one so it lost the "Series" moniker.

I'm not sure but I would be surprised if there was no at least slightly logical explanation.

- Some way of routing messages to the correct provider.
- Some way of transferring messages between providers.

IIRC the Spotlight metadata is stored per-volume, so if you for example mount an encrypted DMG or external disk the metadata for files on that volume are stored on the same volume. This way you can have separate volumes for things with different classifications, and information doesn't leak from one to the other via Spotlight.

If you strongly need full privacy separation between contexts, set up a virtual machine for your confidential work, and encrypt that. Then you can monitor what crosses the security boundary yourself, and deleting the VM means the data and any possible fragments of that data generated by nosy operating system features are gone.

Side note: Check out Finder's advanced preferences for 'Empty Trash Securely'. Additionally, I believe the swap space is now encrypted by default on Lion (at least for laptops), even if you don't have full disk encryption enabled.
And if he doesn't then he works for Apple PR.

There is quite a bit to make more clear. I'd like to see how far along I can get into abstracting away the dynamodb issues.

In your scan vs. query example I'd want to duplicate the data to two indicies ... and running both through a query call. If I can get even a decent amount of consistency this way (the real challenge to the multi-index problem using this method) for small/medium data sizes it would work and still be cost effective. At larger data sizes an application will most likely know which queries it needs to execute consistently in an indexed fashion and which could be farmed out through elastic map reduce.

As mentioned here:

> iOS still kills Android for app availability though (especially when it comes to "tablet optimized" apps)

I keep hearing that. But never seen it backed up. Based on exactly what does people say this? There's no efficient way to "count" Android tablet optimized apps. So how do you compare? Is it because there are some major apps that still works bad on Android tablets? If so, which ones?

I remember when Honeycomb just came out. It was terrible, most apps I'd download looked terrible, and I furiously uninstalled many of them. It was so frustrating. But it has been a long time since I don't feel like that anymore. Today, every app I use on my phone is nicely optimized for my tablet as well. I literally cannot think of a single example of one app I'm missing tablet support for. Yet, the "Android still doesn't have tablet optimized apps" meme didn't stop.

But maybe I'm just living under a rock and haven't been using the same apps as others. So I humbly ask, could anyone please give me an objective argument for this point to understand if there's actually still any merit to it?

I would add the following:

* A short-lived redesign of MSN around the concept of "channels" and "shows" with a focus on animation and video (1996!)

* Partnering with broadcasters to deliver interactive content over a TV broadcast signal (circa 1996-1998)

* Including WebTV software and TV receiver support in Windows 98

Basically, I think that Microsoft followed a strategy focused around the early 90s "Information Superhighway" vision way into the late 90s. A key piece of that vision was that the superhighway would enter people's homes trough television, not computers. When the Internet started to gain popularity, many people still felt that it was a "baby superhighway" or a step along the way to the real superhighway.

Here's the thing though.... If there was more of a gift economy in these cases, the intrinsic properties would be something like generosity, fairness, and honor. You have a lot of money and have a reputation for these things, who is to say that isn't more real?

The problem though is form. I am generous with my good fortune to you. What are you doing for me in return? It used to be that a gift demanded reciprocity (as would injury or misbehavior), and to be forgiven for not doing so was a bad thing and an insult to one's honor. Then Christianity came and we all got screwed over by this obligation to forgive.

Interestingly we know from anthropology that money came about as a way to quantify debt, not the other way around. So perhaps this is only less real today because of how we account for our possessions and how we relate to our money, not because of any intrinsic issue with a relationship based on disparity of this sort.

Interestingly Cicero brings up a similar point in his work on friendship. At a time where Roman society was very stratified and friendships were supposed to be between economic equals, he suggested that the best friendships would be made with people below one's social status, for the specific reason that they would be more loyal. Friendships in Rome were all about a gift economy (as they still are in many parts of the world today. I have a friend who studied with Edgar Polome for his PhD and said Polome used to use India as an example if this. He'd get a gift-- maybe a new wallet or something-- from someone one year and a request for help getting a job or a car or something else a few years later. And when he'd turn them down they'd be unhappy because it was not fulfilling his obligation for having accepted the gift. This is true all over Asia as my wife always reminds me never to accept a gift from someone unless I know what they want in return.)

Is Pluto a Binary Planet?
I suspect your code may already have all of this right in the source.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <mysql/mysql.h>

#include "base/logging.h"
#include "http/cookie.h"

// ... and so on.

Right there, you can translate that into a system header you can ignore, a system header for which you should add cflags and ldflags where appropriate (compiling vs. linking), and a couple of local libraries which need to be further investigated.

http/cookie.h and base/logging.h are then analyzed, along with http/cookie.cc and base/logging.cc, assuming they exist. Any #includes there are chased down in the same manner. This continues until everything has been resolved.

If you keep track of all of these things, then you will have a list of every object file which needs to be rolled up into the final binary. You also pick up all of the flags required to compile and/or link with those things by extension.

Obviously you have to handle the whole "rebuild if something changes" thing, but that's not particularly difficult, either. I wrote my own tool to do exactly this. I'm using it for my own (C++) projects, and it's been quite pleasant. It won't work for everyone, though.

Actually religious groups can be great. I am a Neopagan, formally polythistic with pantheistic undertones, and open generally to the ideas of pantheism, autotheism (is this a form of atheism?), and agnosticism.

However the nice thing about escaping the circle of Christianity and affected religions (Orthodox Judaism, Islam, Sikhism, and spinoffs of these), is that religion ceases to be about what you believe (or more cynically what you say you believe) and rather about ritual, tradition, and what you understand. I have religious students who are atypical atheists, and this is just fine. I don't care what opinions they have, just that they make their own sense out of (and find meaning in) the tradition. You can't do that by simply copying the opinions of someone else....

Many of my deepest friends arise from my religious work. These are often long-term very stable friendships brought about through respect for eachother's intellect and character. And many of those friendships I made as adults. There is little greater friendship that those who mutually inspire eachother.

yep. cross-post. still noteworthy. I think.
Thanks for your thoughts. I agree one would indeed expect to not be signed out by chosing exit. We happen to use google auth and are in this uncommon situation where the sign out action, actually signs the user out of their google account, which so far has annoyed every sigle one of our testers.

We are looking into a few other alternatives including the most obvious where we convey that they are indeed leaving the app but in the next screen let the user know that their google account is still signed in and provide an option if they still want to sign out. Thankfully we have quite a while to launch, so I have time to run a couple other iterations and pick the one which seems most clear.
