Oh and yes I started 30 years ago, at the age of 6. I might not have all skills in all fields to impress you, but my precognitive skills for finding bugs or the right data are something you won't achieve in the next 40 years ..
Kinda neat, I don't see yet any added benefit over Bootstrap however - the problem it solves in a visual way is not really a problem for a mildly experience web developer and for the beginners it's not enough functionality IMO. As a thought experiment it's cool, as a viable product it would need some work.

Hire me. I will work for dirt cheap.
This is shameless self-promotion.

After moving to #Tampere for studies, I'm now available for part-time or freelancing work in Tampere area (or remotely anywhere)

I'm programmer, I'm good doing low level stuff, but also web stuff. I'm extremely interested about developing desktop software for Windows and I know .NET as well WINAPI very well. I have some experience with WinRT too. I have also very good knowledge about language/frameworks inoperability.

I have built commercial software, web stuff which is in production use.
I will work for dirt cheap for various reasons (I can explain why, if interested).

Look what I have built http://byteptr.com/ and contact me for more information.

Who is that with? I was in Vietnam earlier this year, and had real trouble getting the road sellers to understand that I wanted some data. Can you give me a clue what to get next time.

I am £15 prepaid with 3 here in the UK, i get 2,000 texts, 600 minutes and UNLIMITED data. I think this is the best deal I have ever heard of.
While this is a great list (the Not Inbox trick is a very successful filter for many people), the comment about ignoring calendar meetings until the day of is a bit jarring.

I respect not only my own time, but others as well. I expect them to prepare for the meeting, and in some cases that means handouts, agendas, etc that could depend on who is attending. Schedule time to get work done in your calendar, and then you can accept calendar requests in the future with some confidence you'll have time to get stuff done.

The reschedule/schedule the day of shit is crazy annoying though. I use the fullest of my abilities to ignore (re)scheduled meetings within 12 hours unless it actually makes my life easier. 24+ I'm usually more flexible on.
Let's shift the debate a tad. Is the fact that the iPad is predominantly a consumption vs. creation device inherent in the tablet design or just a quirk of the iPad's implementation?

Personally, I think it's not an inherent limitation. I believe that tablets are fundamentally more usable for the vast majority of folks and I believe that they can and will be used for creating. More so, I think that putting computers into more people's hands will be a benefit to the human race, even merely in terms of creativity, that is almost impossible to estimate today.
I looked at buying a phone upfront, but it was better to get it from Optus, and go on a 12 month plan. I ended up paying $1200, when the phone was $1000, and I got 12 months of calls and data.

It should be feasible to run it 24hrs during weekends only. Stockholm's subway does this and is closed normally at night weekdays. The headways are long enough (30+ minutes out on the branches) that repairs can be carried out if need be by switching to the other track (not sure if they actually do this regularly).
Negative thinking is okay (I do it all the time LoL) but negative thinking that's charged with emotion, especially about someone else, is not okay.

Emotion is what embeds thoughts into the mind. Emotion creates physical grooves in the brain. If your going to be negative, be careful not to charge it with emotional energy. Charge positive thoughts with happy emotions.

Absolutely. Forcing users to input their password each time they buy something from iTunes, or log into iCloud in the browsers, encourages simpler passwords. To have a single account in control of everything from buying a $1 song to remote-wiping a computer is madness.

Basics of Agile Scrum software development
I AM a former coffee shop owner. Our shop tanked for several reasons, but none of them were penniless startup founders or similar. In fact, business went up after we encouraged such frugal workers to come in and set up camp. I think this was partly because the fuller a coffee shop looks, the more appealing it is to those passing by (it must be the place to be!) and partly because of the related "others" that they drag in for meetings or just to say hi to, who all grab a quick coffee while they were there.
Amen. That's the story of my life too. Nibbled around and played around for a long time, but not really getting into it. But boy, when I did get into it, did I get into it! It's been a lot of fun since.

These images are from a couple of the four pairs of Hazard Avoidance Cameras (HazCams) installed around the body of the rover. Their function is primarily to provide stereoscopic images for the rover's machine vision to analyze, enabling the rover to autonomously steer itself to a degree and halt if an unexpected hazard (for instance, a large boulder) comes up during movement.

The HazCams also had clear lens covers in place to protect the lenses from all the dust blown around by the landing rockets. These were not yet removed in the very first images -- indeed, the reason they're clear is that even if for some reason a cover gets stuck, a dusty image is better than no image at all.

Moreover, as the first communications opportunity was rather short, and the high-bandwidth directional antenna is not yet unfolded, there was simply no bandwidth available to downlink very high-resolution images.

The mast of the rover, containing the high-resolution NavCams and MastCams, is still folded up. If all goes well, it will be raised in a couple of days and higher-res images beamed up in due course.

Here's a nice article on Curiosity's various cameras: http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/news/news.cfm?release=2012-226
Thanks for the correction. Wonder what I was thinking. Must've had Pages or something on my mind.
Low volume perhaps, but as a business their goal is to maximize profits, meaning the goal they're working toward is high volume.

I live in Hawaii and I can see the impact of this (disposable electronics) every day on the beach. What's problematic is not just the waste that is the direct result of this company, it's the fact that nobody is even acknowledging the destructive impact of the company. It's hailed as a success -- and nobody notices the impact on the rest of us?
I agree, in South Africa we have a new rail system called the Gautrain linking Pretoria and Johannesburg. Initially I, and many others viewed it as an elitist boondogle aimed at the middle class who wouldn't abandon the cars, particularly because of the poorly controlled urban sprawl in the province (there's already an old rail system that is unreliable and neglected). However, surprisingly, Gautrain has reached capacity at peak times, and longer trains and different schedules are being introduced to deal with the demand. The ridership is also far more diverse than I expected. People are already demanding access from their workplaces, and in the next 10-15 years, I can forsee densities around the stations increasing.

No, there aren't. There are some biglaw partners who for some, very specific work charge amounts that are in the general vicinity of USD 1000. And that kind of money includes office costs (or whatever the term is that the firm uses to describe the fixed overhead rate they apply to billables to cover secretaries, stationary etc.)

Actually, USD 1000 per hour is special enough to merit an article in the WSJ about it: http://online.wsj.com/article/SB1000142405274870407130457616... . I certainly wouldn't say that 'many' lawyers bill those amounts.
The US deserves massive, massive kudos for this mission, and space exploration in general.

Granted, lots of other countries do excellent work, there's no doubt about that, but the commitment level is different by a huge margin.

Just take a look at what NASA is doing right this very second. They just landed a rover on Mars; they have 2 satellites around Mars; they have satellites around Saturn, Mercury, and Vesta; they have spacecraft on their way to Jupiter and Pluto; they have a planet hunting space telescope which has discovered hundreds of extra-solar planets already; they have Hubble; they have an X-ray telescope; they have a gamma-ray telescope which just recently provided potential confirmation on the origin and nature of dark matter. Oh, and they have another operational rover on Mars. And this isn't even everything, nor does it touch manned spaceflight.

The ESA has been doing some pretty amazing work in the past few years (with Mars Express, Huygens, Rosetta, Planck/Herschel, XMM, Cluster, SOHO, and their cooperation on NASA missions and others) and Japan and others have been doing good work as well, but the budgetary commitment as a percentage of GDP is just not comparable. We shouldn't take NASA's successes and say "oh, well, a bunch of other nations helped out some too, so, go world!" We should give NASA their due, and we should give other space agencies their due as well, and we should challenge the world to support space science missions to the level they deserve.

Terrible article, veers way off subject from the headline. So I'm going to forget the article exists and talk about the headline.

I'm personally more interested in personal cloud type services. Little plug computers that you hook to your wall and run services such as FTP off of. You pay for brain dead easy DNS service at whatever rate and all of your data belongs to you. If your DNS provider gives you the finger you switch and give it right back.

Right now these devices are expensive. In time though they'll be cheap. So I'm just waiting on it until I can build my own or buy one for <$50.
Search google for nestinari - and you would find an old bulgarian tradition of fire-walking. How they do it? I guess there is some trick - maybe not allowing any air between the leg and the fire, or quickly walking - or the feet have something on them... I dunno.

Just use Mercurial for random private commits, send the Git people your changesets every so often:

$ subgit setup
$ hg init

In Google's own words: "In terms of implementation effort, Mercurial has a clear advantage due to its efficient HTTP transport protocol.

In terms of features, Git is more powerful, but this tends to be offset by it being more complicated to use."

When they used to say that 35 Kbps was the maximum for a analog modem, it was purportedly due to a fundamental principle of information theory.

When they used to say that ADSL had a maximum of 8 Mbps, it might be just because the spec for the first version of ADSL was written in that way. It's probably not due to any limits of physics or math.

They already belong to USA with a cold war protectionist law: ITAR. That's why Russia, China, Europe, Copenhagen suborbitals, etc, are all going into space without USA's help.

That said, it shouldn't be an us vs them game with progressing the knowledge.

Well, people who misrepresent their part in successes and obscure or gloss over their role in failures bother me, especially when said individuals go on to offer advice such as yours about something as difficult as finding the right problem to solve and solving it in a practical way.

What made you think the author was suggesting space should be exploited without use of tools like ownership and investment?

In fact, he even says about space: "We need to take it". If that doesn't imply intended ownership I don't what does. He even goes on to say: "It will belong to humans. To people." So why on Earth are you calling him futile and foolish for eschewing notions of ownership? I'm beginning to think you only read the article title.

Quite obviously the main thrust of the article is a call to arms to forgo petty nationalistic concerns, and to embrace the space project as a rational undivided planetary population. His excitement was infectious, and the idea a worthy one, but I don't think there's much more to read in to it.

I'm pretty sure that solves the Firesheep problem

With most WiFi encryption (basically except WPA2 Enterprise, which won't be in use in cafés) you can still receive the traffic as long as you see the initial handshake for the device connecting to the network.
Sniffing software like Wireshark or Aircrack-NG can handle the decryption transparently.

Once you can see the traffic Firesheep or something like it will work in the same way as on an unencrypted network.
