Social Media Startup
Hello,

I have a social media startup that I am currently developing with my team and we need venture capital funding.

This startup would take a nice chunk out of LinkedIn's membership by appealing to niche groups in an exclusive network. I am talking about professional services groups. Our revenue stream would derive from various sources (ads, referral fees, premium membership, and company job postings).

Plans for growth will resemble economics of scale. I have a degree in economics and have developed a solid business plan.

My experience includes Mod My Airsoft (www.modmyairsoft.com). I am one of a handful of distributors in the world of cutting edge electronics within the niche airsoft industry.

Many thanks,
Steven Mike Solomon

Another one of Amazon's which frustrated me was that after a few years of buying similar items (programming books, computer odds and ends etc) it started recommending reasonable things. Then I put in an order for two children's books for my mother (who teaches young kids), and from that moment on Amazon somehow only recommended kids books to me.

It's never really recovered, however since I bought a blackberry cover a year or so ago it has started recommending other blackberry covers so I guess it's sort of improved.
Lattice-based cryptography (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lattice-based_cryptography) is currently believed to be quantum-computer resistant (i.e. requires super-polynomial time to break even on a sufficiently large quantum computer).

There are only very few problems were quantum computers achieve an exponential speedup vs. classical computers, factoring being one example.
Well I know that models are afraid of glasses in general; I don't know why. A well known model in my country was a good friend (long time ago) and she wore glasses in school; outside she would never wear them (this was long before digital cameras/phones, I think in this day/age she would just not at all wear them) because she thought they sucked. I thought she looked way better in them. But maybe that's just my fetish :)
What got me was clicking the 'Run Javelin Tests' link on the navigation bar at http://javelinjs.com/. :)
i totally disagree. Kids these days are all about being hipsters, trend setters that share everything. Seamlessly live stream their lives with a retro/futuristic monocle, I think they'll be all over it.
I've cloned a few GitHub projects and, I have to say, I am absolutely amazed when I look at the source files. Project after project without comments.

I wish people would add a one-line comment to the top of every source file saying what it's for. ONE LINE is all I ask.
> What I care about is you not recording me without my permission.

I can record you with a phone in my pocket and half of the people around you have a smartphone capable of video recording. The only change Google Glass will introduce in this regard is a better angle.

I think the courses are great to get an idea of what the subject is about. If you face a related problem at least you will know wether it can be efficently solved. It will allow you to speak to an expert in the field at a basic level at least. That said, they certainly can be greatly improved.

Because some of us like to think of ourselves as - oh, I don't know - human beings and citizens, rather than mere "consumers".

Because some of us would like, just for once, some space (either virtual or physical) that's not inundated with advertisements.

Because the basis of advertising is manipulation of free will to serve commercial interests, and is thus inherently degrading.

That's why.

It's all signalling. Huge headphones, lotion scents, $200 meals send the right signal to the right people (target, subculture). They do look "cool", just not to you because you're not the intended recipient. Partially, you're not the intended recipient, because you don't see them as "cool".
Thanks for taking the time to type that beast. I can see how most people never achieve steps 1 and 2. I find it difficult to come up with an idea that other people think is really cool or, if I do, it's a ridiculously difficult idea that I don't possess ever a fraction of the required skillset.

One project that I've considered before is some sort of auto-piloted arduino-based plane that would fly across the US from Jacksonville, FL (where I live now) to Mountain View, CA. I think this might be comparable to your T-Rex example in that, while it has no practical use, it's still pretty damn cool.

Thoughts?
Jury nullification Yes (its a form of direct democracy). Judges making up the law No (its an undemocratic attack on the rule of law). Interpretation of ambiguities is one thing but just ignoring parts is not OK. It would leave everyone with no rules to follow just different judges with different views to persuade in each case.

If there is a real disagreement between law and what the judge thinks is right they should rule in favour of the law (but grant sanctions etc. as close to just as possible). He/she can then publicly complain about the law or run for congress to change it.

Please note that I am in favour of what the Judge has said but think that if his ruling stands it is a big change in the law and it is the wrong way to do that.

If you tag objects as being either "owned" by a thread or "shared" then you could (in the python implementation) do something like:

if (obj.owner == current_thread):
# just get in and mess with it
elsif (obj.owner == shared):
# get in and mess with it under a lock
else
throw "not your obj - make this obj shared if you need that"

From a language perspective, you'd just need a way to declare that an object was 'shared'. All other objs would be owned by their creating thread.

I think this has more to do with the setup, I'm pretty sure it's possible to add a tracking pixel to their payment page, which will stop paying users from seeing the ads.

I agree that this is the annoying part of it at least for me. Seeing ads for stuff you already bought.
I would much rather the phrase be something like, "don't take it too personally, we're all on the same team and even though I'm harsh, the goal is to improve your work."

I know it doesn't roll off the tongue like "it's not personal, it's just business," but the problem is most of the time when I hear that particular phrase, I'm probably about to be screwed over in some way.
Ok, Eric Schmidt arrives and asks a super-smart question, about what makes this start up special.

The guy fluffs it, giving some pedestrian generic answer - then 15 mins later realises the real, best answer to Eric. he does not chase after Schmidt down the hall, instead he writes this post.

Ok, I have got this far, you are a cool startup, Eric Schmidt is an investor and you just dropped the ball. So hit me now with it - I really want to read the next paragraph - tell me what you wish you had said to Eric Schmidt.

>>> but I won't write that here, instead let me talk about

Nooooo! Write it. You built up to it. It's your secret sauce. It's what everyone here wants to know about.

Please please please rewrite the damn post with your great insight. I don't want more generic obvious analysis of how great dropbox and google are

This was your undo blog post, the one after fluffing it in front of Schmidt. Speak with your voice - tell me what is deep in your startups soul, I want to know and I promise I am not going to copy you

Give me an honest voice.
I'd imagine that kind of adult product would perform pretty badly on 4chan. The audience is definitely not in buying mode when they're there, and it's not like most people are going there explicitly for porn, so they don't have the kind of "motivation" that drives that kind of purchase. Probably things like cool / novelty items would do better there, things that appeal to teenagers with not too much money.

However, in fairness, if I look at all of the software that I use regularly in a professional capacity today, then it is clearly Google products that are the most buggy, and by a very wide margin.

It's more likely that you just spend more time using Google software than other software. When I worked at BofA, our website was down for an entire week because of a bad push. No online banking for a week. That's pretty much the standard for the industry. I don't doubt that there are bugs in Docs or Chrome, but they are relatively obscure. That's the nature of software, not every bug is caught by a unit test and users end up seeing them and reporting them. (Oddly, we use Docs heavily at Google, and the only bug that I've noticed is the "Your zoom level is not supported one". I haven't personally hit any other issues.)

But like I said in my original post, if you know how to develop bug-free software, I'd love to hear how. Expecting low-cost web apps to be as reliable as airplane control systems is unrealistic.

Exactly. And in the example of searching for baseball bat, if I search for "but baseball bats online", all I care about are organic search results. Yes, those are different than ads, and yes, even when I have a strong intent to buy something right now, I still don't want to see ads. They are lying, bending the truth, or just simply presenting me with suboptimal choices. Personally, there is no context I found ads useful in. Ever.
Great site and self-deprecating humor. It's funny, but I don't Normally think "great JS" when I think of Facebook's Strengths...its backed and scalability seem quite impressive, but its frontend doesn't stand out in terms of performance (or consistency), but I'm likely not paying enough attention to all the factors that FB's interface has to deal with.

Ironically, this counterintuitive, lets-make-fun-of-other-JS-frameworks-overhyping-themselvs approach has already seeded into my mind, "FB must have awesome JS, remember how they could get away with parodying other JS frameworks?"

Well, yes. I can install bundler on a shared hosting environment where I don't have root. In fact, pretty much all my installations are non-root installations. Still, I don't have to manually move it around, symlink or shell-wrap it.

It's not a deal-breaker or a major nuisance that I have to do it, it just fits in what I'm used from php: it gets the job done, but feels unpolished.
Toronto Airport Limo Flat Rate Reservation With More Ease And On-line Security
Well, since CS due to good wages has attracted the hipsters that confuses their IQ with the price of their gadget, and that are in average better at communicating (with their so hype websites) than the average hectic programmers, you may want to filter them out, and make fun of them.

These self called geeks and gurus are best avoided in projects. I guess the hacked by China joke is like a filter.

Real programmers do it for fun. And they not only do it in few words, they also do it with 'finger'.

I guess, they are just doing a cultural handshake they try to filter out the morons by sending irrelevant information on one hand (the official website), and another one on the other hand (the doc is concise and clear).

For me it is a new divide in programming community: the infatuated hipsters self called geeks vs the mocking nerds.

For me it is the sense of the zed shaw's rant on rails, and of the readme and sites of javelin.

PS : I belong to the mocking nerds.
What is the appeal of these types of libraries over promises?
I really liked the Google talk http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AyzOUbkUf3M and there are a bunch of advances in machine learning mixing technologies, like inductive learning & genetic programming. The Google video also shows some combinations of techniques to make it learn much faster.

Fortunately I can find videos and whitepapers on all those subjects, but seems the libraries are all very much in 'the past'. Maybe I don't know about some, but is there a library/toolbox like Weka which implement all modern & old algorithms and allow you to play on datasets mixing and matching them? Maybe I just couldn't find that, but Weka seems to be too primitive for that?

Disclaimer: I majored in AI a long time ago and I understand most of these concepts, but I have never touched it after I finished, so I'm not up to date/aware of everything, so sorry if I missed a famous tool or something.

I really hate it when I'm browsing through images (in the pop-up) on a slow connection...

If I move to the next image before the current one finishes loading, the next one will be replaced by the old one when it finishes loading. Really annoying, a very simple thing to fix, but I guess that FB engineers never view their sites on slow connections...

I'm a woman. I have a Facebook account and a journal. Both accounts are under pseudonyms and at least the Facebook account is listed as male. I won't use Google+. But I'll express myself all over the Internet. I have a right to say whatever I want without worrying about being stalked by some ass who feels the need to punish me for thinking without permission. My employer doesn't have a right to know anything about what I do off hours.
I retain, and will retain, the expectation of my right to privacy, even as I take advantage of my right to speak. The fact that an entity announces their intent to steal my private information, does not deprive me of the expectation of my rights. It just means that what I put where they can steal it will be of no value.
It's not like I can't have an online presence without Google+.
This article is RIGHT ON. Google+ IS screwing itself out of a large population of potential users , for these reasons, by these methods, and can take this valid feedback and... do what they do with feedback.

> - ability to use assembly and translate said assembly into the high-level language

Not at all, lisp machines used custom silicon implementing lisp in hardware, I believe even the microcode was lisp.

> I suppose there are other nice to haves as well: e.g., GC will need to be fairly controllable.

If you're coding the hardware to the language, parts of the GC can be hardware-supported directly.

> I see no practical reason why a Lisp can't be used to write an OS

Especially since it has been used to write OSes, multiple times.
Reminds me of a conversation at my last job:

Manager: Working from home is a privilege, not a right
Me: Having me work from home is a privilege not a right

You see it cuts both ways. If management wants more than the 9-5 with an hour for lunch that it stipulates in your contract, that is.

The truth is the technology for working remotely just isn't there yet. Sure you can just churn out simple code that way, might even be faster than in the office. But nothing beats the sheer mental bandwidth of a dozen engineers in a room with big whiteboards and an ample supply of coffee. Not even IRC!
In large companies that I've worked for, the uptake of IM and skype is slow and barring the occasional video conference when someone just couldn't travel for one reason or another, is almost frowned upon.

That kind of makes it difficult for remote working to take place effectively, because, whatever else we may think, work is more than just "give me my list of tasks and I'll give you the deliverables".....the social interaction and relationships between people can radically improve motivation and such.
Many of the comments are focused on how workers should be evaluated. The article is discussing how workers are evaluated. In fact, the authors emphasize:

"Managers may not be aware they are making evaluations based on face time."

You can argue that managers should be aware of a bias in this area and strive to minimize its effect. However, workers need to simply be realistic about the effect of working remotely - regardless of whether it seems fair to them. Personally, I prefer to work remotely - but I have always been wary about not spending enough time in the office because of the tendencies described in the article. Physical presence is a powerful thing, and difficult to ignore. Email, IM, Skype, and phone calls are much easier to ignore.
How server downtime can lead to losing SEO rankings
I think it's just a very fine hair to split that this is malware yet everything before wasn't. This software does not actively do anything else than many apps on the store. It does not contain any malicious code (by itself). Pretty much every app with ads uploads as much information about you as it can. Is broadcasting SMS spam to the gathered data what makes an app malware?
I have to say it's a view that few people share. I have worn a lifelogging device in public a number of times and the amount of people who have a problem with the privacy aspect is approximately 1 in 50 or so. Admittedly this is among people mainly < 30, and I imagine the sentiment might be higher among older people. But the point is, it's probably going to happen.

If it makes you feel any better, the sheer amount of data you get out of these devices makes it unlikely your image will ever be misused or shared around on purpose. The worst you can expect is to be the extra in somebody's holiday recordings. I walk through central London on a regular basis and I'm sure I must be ruining the shots of several dozen tourists with traditional cameras by now.

I never understood the hate for homeopathy from highly educated people.

I won't touch it with a ten-foot pole myself, but homeopathy does get people the placebo effect and that's "A Good Thing" (tm).

That our analytical skills have correctly identified that homeopathy can't really do anything and we thus have to resort to beliefs in the mind-body relationship and e.g. meditation to achieve similar benefits is actually too bad for us.... just popping some pills would've been a lot easier.
Well, $200 meals can be nice; I wouldn't call them cool, but if the food is really good, I can see you eating there. I don't see why kids would sit there all with their phones/games out and not talk during the entire meal. Or why parents would allow such a thing.

But for the other things you are right; I don't get that, but I see what they are doing. So I see what you mean, and that was exactly what I meant; this guy is trying to look cool and attract the babes while he crashes into a lamppost reading his 'urgent' iPad content. That's sending a signal as well and that's what I meant.

It can (and will probably) be cool to wear those glasses in the end, if not from Google, maybe from Apple or someone else.

Not sure where I'd use this yet, but I love the timeliner.
It sounds like you mean to imply that iOS developers and Ruby programmers are the hipsters, no? I'm not really familiar with the battle between "hipsters" and "real nerds" in the programming world. My experience has been the opposite of yours in that the lulz crowd is usually the more inexperienced group.

There are more dimensions here than just two. The two groups you've described co-exist with many other kinds of programmers. For example, Linus Torvalds is not a mocking nerd or a hipster. I would imagine that many programmers do not identify with the two groups you've described. There are groups of 'serious' and talented programmers, lulzy talented programmers, lulzy hipster programmers, and every combination in between. Shades of gray, as they say.

They don't just hand out pens and pads. They pay for vacations thinly disguised as business trips, they pay for equipment, whatever it takes. One company selling generics paid doctors 5% of the cost of each prescription, they just send them a check. The latter was just ruled legal by the highest regular German court, basically saying that it's corruption, but there's no law in the books that forbids this particular kind of corruption.

I can't imagine these things are hugely different in the land of the free.
