I'm not trying to imply you have a problem with the word "use", I am directly implying that there is some boundary beyond which someone will be offended and you will not be. At which point whose delicate sensibilities should we defer to?

I, for one, take exception that your category of people who enjoy receptive sex seems to be explicitly excluding straight males, such that you've used the exact same "i.e." qualifier twice. It is well within the realm of possibility that a straight male would ask his partner to stimulate his prostate during sex, but you categorically reject that. Are you going to correct your mistake and stop making generalizations? Maybe start using e.g. from now on?

My position is this; it is obvious that the original poster is not making some kind of blanket statement that all people who participate in anal sex are bad, but rather is stating that having a large object in your anus is uncomfortable and having an entity do it to you while you are unwilling is horrible. It's not a statement that was attempting to marginalize minority groups. You are the one who misconstrued it to mean all gay men are evil. Maybe that's why you find people's objections to your attempted control over the English language to be common.

Finally, you seem to be annoyed that I "created a strawman argument" out of you, but you do feel free to contort my statements into "it's political correctness gone mad!", and "you can't say anything anymore!" as well as directly stating that I am someone who "wants to continue to say things that marginalize some minorities". Is ad hominem less of a logical fallacy than making a so-called strawman argument? I'm not going to continue arguing with someone that has such intellectual dishonesty because it's just a waste of time. I am done here and I won't be reading any responses you post, so you can save yourself some time there.
Personally, I don't see games the same as other software. Generally, they are more like content (movies, music, etc). Especially in the world of game consoles, where the games come on read only discs.

Games that are able to be "modded" of course add additional value and surely open source games would only expand the possibility, but there aren't the same concerns of my work and data being locked away in a proprietary ecosystem. If a game from 10 years ago stops working, it is disappointing, but not debilitating.
There's a lot of people logged out or that doesn't change most of her data... so I think that this data isn't accurate.
What is the reasoning behind this type of behavior? Is it that she is very susceptible to the techniques used in banner ads (animated dancing mortgage people, "one weird trick", etc.)? Or does she have some OCD behavior of clicking all the links on a page?

In the OP's case, I can see the motive of the Like-collecting mindset, but with the compulsive clickers, I'm imagining someone who clicks on ads for no reason other than a compulsion to "complete the page".
It's amusing to see skeptical comments, but these are theorist who are held in very high regard by their peers and not many in the community would dispute their getting the award. The days of proposing easily provable conjectures are over. Now its almost exclusively high energy physics that is being probed.

I feel that as the physics gets increasingly complex to formulate, the prize money should go up too. And there's no better time to give away generous prizes than the highly skewed economy of today.
Since your website fails to scale down to fit on mobile devices, yet claims to have mobile apps in the portfolio, one has to wonder how many other oversights the developer has failed to consider.
The failure to target the vast emerging mobile audience is inexcusable within today's context.
They can't be that crazy, if they pulled that bot scam on just one customer, they risk alienating their entire user base. How could they possibly think they could get away with something like that? It doesn't add up.

True on many counts but:

A1000 had customisable home screen that could feature the links and apps you wanted to hand, shown as app icons.

It had a stylus but on the whole worked fine with just a finger (better screens just were not affordable at the time)

It allowed for app 'grouping' though not with the snazzy app draws of iOS

It could do 'sliding draw' notifications of things like SMS, offering a preview in the top bar.

---

I'm not saying it was anywhere near as good as an iPhone, but it featured some of the ideas that people try to say that the iPhone did first.

On a side note I'm going to have to dig it out, it had some great games on it!
Agreed. EVERYTHING is polished and complete. Amazing work for a single developer.

At the IETF'84: there was some(* consensus on audio codecs. Opus and G.711 (for interop with legacy). However, the video codec consensus has been postponed until 15-October (until then the WG are requesting clarification on licensing and technical merits of the video codecs VP8/H.264).

(* it needs to confirmed on the associated mailing list.

Thank you for this informative comment. Although I mean no offence towards the GP, Indians are prone to blame the govt./corruption etc and say that the "whole system sucks". In that light, information from someone in the industry is highly appreciated

We tolerate fewer faults from our computers because the underlying system is not complex enough to prevent those faults from affecting us in large ways. As you say, a small failing in the human body doesn't render the entire organism inert and useless; no, we can adapt our behavior during healing and move on. When a small fault occurs in your computer, it tends to have disastrous effects.

We will tolerate faults in our computer systems when then faults don't cost us our homework, our jobs, or our lives. And complexity is the only way to making that happen.

I, for one, welcome our new chaos-wielding overlord!
Going for knowledge just because it sounds cool isn't going to be a motivator strong enough for success. Find stuff you're interested in and dive into those. The way to become a well-rounded person is to become obsessive in many things (possibly not simultaneously) that are unusual in some way. In fact, learning anything will feel like specialization, and in fact being a serial specialist is probably the most viable way to become a "Renaissance man" today.

Note that the first thing that came to my mind when I read your post was: "To be a true Renaissance man, you need to have been dead for 400 years". I won't write it here :)
Sony confirms Jelly Bean for 2011 Xperia devices!
OK, interesting. I guess it's a personal thing. For me it's not just a question of whether I know or not. I also have to consider if there is anything I could reasonably do to prevent such things from happening. If there isn't, then I would consider whether I really need to use the system (for example, is this my only option because I live under an oppressive regime?).

I think this was the point of the GP asking, "How do I not unwittingly get CP being stored on my device?".
oh.. idk about this . :)

Space travel wasn't really considered possible. Air travel was seen as a maybe but the first successful powered flight has not yet happened (or if someone had managed it by then, their achievement had not been widely reported).

The first practical small submarines were around on the early 1800s (man powered at that point) and there had been many advancements in underwater tech (including significant steps in individual breathing apparatus and practical powered sub-marine vehicles) in the late 1800s - so around 1900 the oceans were the next great frontier in the eyes of many of the people who were in a position to care about such things, particularly after the popular success of Jules Verne's "20,000 Leagues" and to a lesser extent other similar works.

This aspiration of the oceans as the next great frontier may also have been driven partly by the massive increase in demand for fuel over that century or two due to the industrial revolution: if you could find a massive source of useful fuel material in that great unexplored wilderness you could name your fortune.

lt;dr: around then, under-water was cool to the public (brought up in the industrial revolution & looking for the next exciting technological developments), potentially very important militarily, and seen as one of mankinds next big steps.
we'll look into it - can you shoot an email to contact (at) codecademy (dot) com? thanks!
by that logic if the Syrian govt were to sponsor twitter they should suspend all accounts that criticize them?

I think if there was no email address in the tweets and the journalist had his account suspended then this would be very newsworthy.

At the moment at least twitter have a leg (albeit shaky one) to stand on.
EXCLUSIVE CONVENIENCE OF PACKING AND RELOCATION SERVICES IN BHIWANI
It rewards people who contribute to science, who in turn can use the reward as they see fit. It is logical to believe that allocating wealth to people who have demonstrated high quality results will increase the number of future high quality results, which is surely a desirable result.

I'm puzzled by Feynman's attitude in those comments - he doesn't discuss the prize money at all, which one can easily see e.g. funding a number of students who might otherwise not be able to afford the type of education he received and thereby not receive the type of pleasure he speaks of.
Infant mortality and Java. And hunting for memory leaks.
I think this was the point he/she was trying to make:

Will investors happily let founders draw comfortable
salaries

Do the founders really draw comfortable salaries during that run? If not then their risk is that they are 'wasting' their time at below market rates.
>"The short clip is taken from an interview in which one finds, if watched integrally, Marcuse himself explaining why he is NOT an important figure in the movement"

That's called modesty. To deny Marcuse had no influence because he said he didn't is incredibly naive.

As far as "bias", every piece of media we consume has bias. Making claims of, "This is biased!" is something you do in high school readings; of course it's biased. Mr. Curtis is using film to express an opinion and theory about how he sees things work. That's what all artists, writers and film makers do.

Some of his ideas are a bit of a stretch, yes. But I think people are doing a great disservice to others by attaching a disclaimer to these films. In my opinion, Curtis makes some of the most well-done, stylized, intellectual and entertaining documentaries going (and this series is probably his worst). If you don't like his films, that's fine. But don't try to pass him off as a nutter. That's unfair and biased.
Or have it do some high level of QOS where both sides need to acknowledge that the other side received the message otherwise cancel the request. This is pretty much what TCP does.
I see my hometown of Harrisburg isn't getting startup love. Kind of surprising; I've heard from friends and family still there that their economy is prettty strong. The cost of doing business there is probably a lot cheaper than the Philly area too.
I think yours is the best assessment. The only one of his films i've seen ("The Trap") was a bizarre viewing experience, because I agreed with most of his conclusions and found the filmmaking technique and music impressive, but thought that his arguments were specious.
index sites could have password encoded rar files of AwesomeNewMovie-1080P-SceneHipsters.rar (like they already do if they're using file lockers)

wouldn't the hash be different for every rar password used?

I guess the problem is once any copy infringing hash is found it is trivial to search the network and find everyone who has transferred it?

edit: although if the only writer is the uploader, would you be able to tell who read the copy infringing copy vs who just has it because their part of the network?
Did you notice there are only pictures of white people? (France still had a lot of colonies during the 1900's and traded actively around the world).
Haskell Live: Building a game of Chess in Haskell
I've been finding that just simply mocking up the sites/apps I'm building or even just pieces of their functionality has helped me refine what I feel is implementation of good user experience. The marker comes down to "Would I use that?", and more often than not, as fast as I can get a page up it's no match for a mockup that comes to fruition even quicker. Check out Balsamiq (http://www.balsamiq.com/) for the app that I choose to use. I also lurk ux.stackexchange.com, as mtrn suggested it's a great resource.
I really wish wireless charging would take off, too. Inductive charging like the Palm Pre and HP Touchpad are nice, and we could take it further. It really doesn't seem like that tech is being pushed anymore, which is a shame.

What are you referring to here? (Honest question.) Supersymmetry as a solution to the Hierarchy problem was an extremely important idea, and it is in the process of being ruled out by the LHC now (after hopes that is appear at LEP and the Tevatron also failed to materialize).
A bank sues stock marked over some number fluctuation caused by social network and all that produces millions of profits for the lawyers :) . If I would be more naive I'd say "Let them all burn down". But since all that translates to billions of real money and can possibly harm entire countries in some cases (like the LIBOR scandal) we can only watch and wonder how did we come here...

The Certified Cyber Kid course did it for me. Scroll to the bottom and read the curriculum. http://rahultyagi.net/Courses.html
I agree. The lack of imagination is startling.
What I find most amusing is that many of these self-proclaimed hackers/developers don't get it. You can ask the same question all over again for days only to get off-topic replies. Sadly, most of the ones I dealt with are also based in India.
It'd be an interesting study, although I think you're comparing apples and oranges - Google is direct response whereas FB is banner advertising. The level of intent in Google queries is high. The level of intent in a user seeing a FB ad is still largely an unknown - with FB arguing that the information they have about a user indicates intent - but to me it is the difference between targeting based on intent and profile.
I'm appalled at the no. of comments that say "the govt. is useless/shit and that the system is torn by corruption". Of course it is. More constructive comments, please!

it could easily be replaced by any number of extant services, let alone potential future services.

Does this matter at all? Everything could be replaced by another service. Nothing is sacred. But what really matters isn't what will come, but what exists. Twitter exists. That's why it's used. I'm really not seeing your point.

I work in the digital advertising industry, more specifically on ad exchanges and various behavioral targeting platforms. Facebook is scrambling to monetize their traffic like never before, as a reaction to fallout from their horrifically botched IPO.

They recently announced the launch of a beta ad exchange, FBX, that for the first time will allow outside advertisers to access Facebook inventory for behavioral targeting. So if you are researching a flatscreen TV on Best Buy, you could start seeing TV ads on Facebook. This is common practice across all e-commerce websites, but until now FB has been a closed inventory platform.

This means that the clicks and actions from the Facebook audience are being scrutinized more than ever, and those have to be quality clicks (not bots). General Motors recently announced their complete withdrawal from FB because of poor advertising performance (again, bots).

Facebook is fucking up royally on the business side of things, so for the sake of sustainability I hope they are still laser-focused on product.
We broke various "entrepreneurial" barriers that have limited start-up endeavours in Costa Rica. By building a crowd-sourced app as an MVP in one day and a "complete" product in 10 days we solved 3 problems that public and private sectors had been trying to solve for years, which are very difficult to solve to cultural idiosyncracy. 1. Education: all participants learned how to use the OPF framework the very same day they coded the MVP. 2. Initial capital: no investment was needed except minor tool usage and hosting. 3. Finding partners/entrepreneurs: 30 people of different professions came together to build the app. We experimented and are VERY happy with the result and what will come of it.

A shame that the reporter chose to focus on just the political activism use case. Turning nonprofit supporters to fundraisers and advocates is so much more than that. Maybe I am a bit late to the party here, but did you change your landing page after the article? I was a lot surprised to land on just your hiring page from TC. Looked around and still didn't see anything that I showed me what you're about... but here's a cheer to you for working towards mobilizing volunteers for nonprofits!
Lots of derision over how easy it was for StockTwits to build this and as such they don't deserve sympathy? I don't get it. It sucks for them that Twitter is implementing this feature, but I have to say that I have respect for StockTwits - they noticed a gap in a market, produced a product and got on with building their business. That's what we should all be doing. I think the real/productive questions here are "what can StockTwits do to leverage their current user base so that they continue to provide a valuable product and keep building?" or "what is the best pivot they could do to keep building their business?"
I don't claim to be a "hacker" but would just like to say that there are smart people here. They are not just as vocal as these people who, as others have said in this thread, are good at selling themselves to the media.

HTML5 is going full-steam ahead with the browsers competing to add features and improve implementations.

But, HTML5 on mobile is still a huge pain in practice, if you want to go beyond a basic content app. e.g. you can't do anything in the background or triggered by alarms/geofencing type events, can't do notifications or widgets, graphics/multimedia can be slow, even basic UI components like fixed nav-bars have buggy implementations.

It's still great to use HTML5 to build a fully functioning web presence across devices. And HTML5 on desktop is very solid now as a full-featured application platform.

I wouldn't say adoption is slowing down in absolute terms. It's just that it's not reached its full potential as many of us had anticipated a couple of years back, because it's not (yet) a viable implementation choice for most mobile/tablet apps.
It is sad, I get excited whenever I see anything remotely Steampunk.
Could you, off the top of your head, give a rough idea of what cyclomatic complexity or Halstead complexity corresponds to a "large" project? In fact, given even a very simple code snippet, could you state on a cursory examination what these complexity values would be? Could most people reading this discussion?

If not, your alternatives don't serve the required purpose. Everyone gets that a project with 10 million lines of code is big. Whether it's bigger in any useful sense than another project of 8 million lines isn't really the point, and any alternative that doesn't have an immediate intuition for people reading the discussion isn't helping much.

And the ability to block ads, which is possible in Conkeror.

I'd also prefer an Emacs-style keybinding set (or at least the ability to map one), so I don't have to switch muscle-memory mode when jumping from my editor to graphical browser. But, I'd be willing to give that up if the memory footprint of a thin Webkit-based browser is more minimal. I occasionally have to restart Conkeror after sustained heavy use due to it hogging system resources (it'll eventually bring my Atom n270 to a grinding halt). This is probably xulrunner's fault though, I suspect.

A great point. The counter argument would be the recent development with drm that requires online authentication to run, so they can't be sold and will stop working at some point, most likely within 5-10 years.

A large part of HN is developers trying to make money/earn reputation. An ad network for a new release of an OS is important in that regard. Not a big surprise it's popular.
