About luck: in the final sentence, they mention luck. But even that is just I'm lucky I'm not lazy, I'm lucky I was born with the gift of hard-work and determination, rather than I'm lucky I've avoided the external forces that send people homeless.

They write a long post about how people who are homeless "don't get it".

They say things like "go to the public library", and "quit blaming the economy".

They say things like "I make sacrifices, I toil, I struggle, but I make it work."

I've edited the OP a bit - maybe this explains the bits I concentrated on.

"I can't tell you honestly why [...] I would be so driven. Why [...] I would be curious enough to seek out the books, essays, podcasts, and blog posts that have shaped my entrepreneurial character.

Why was I drawn towards the heroes and role models that I was - business and technology leaders, instead of rock-stars or athletes - who inspired me towards a particular path?"

It feels to me like it's hateful, obnoxious, vile writing. (Other people disagree, and that's fine.) People who are homeless do not have entrepreneurs as role models? People who are homeless do not have intellectual curiosity? The economy has no affect upon a person's ability to gain employment? People who are homeless did not struggle hard to make things work before the rug was pulled?

I sincerely wish AVTizzle never has to experience homelessness. But perhaps they should temper their remarks about homeless people until s/he's met a few or been in that situation.

I don't imagine it will get any upvotes, but it's a place to put some of the more detailed discussion, if anyone wants it.

In short, we juggle to a fixed rhythm with the hands taking it in turns. For a given throw, the number is when that ball will next be thrown. Time between throws is made up of "Flight Time" and "Dwell Time".

Under reasonable, simplifying assumptions, the Dwell Time is always one beat, so the time of flight is always one less than the number describing the throw.

And thank you! Nice to know you remember it being fun.
> just moving to another company unfortunately makes you suddenly worth more.

It's important to not confuse what you're worth generally, what you're worth to a specific employer and what an employer is actually paying you. Don't make the mistake of thinking that you are automatically worth only what you are getting paid.

The goal of negotiation is to end up getting paid what you're worth to your employer. If you move to another employer and get paid more, then either you're worth more to your new employer than you were to your old employer, or your old employer was not paying you what you were worth to him.

Some employers will never pay you what you are worth to them. They take advantage of the fact that most employees are either poor negotiators or not in a position to risk moving. This is more likely to happen after you've been there a while, since that tends to be when even more employees are poor negotiators or not in a position to risk moving. The best thing to do is to move (if you can).

The rest of your post, I am not sure what you are going on about. Yes, property laws are political (and some countries famously got rid of them, which for now has to be considered a failure). But what does that have to do with Keynesian spending? Also I admit I am not an expert on Keynes, but I suspect that puts me on par with most other people who have an opinion on it and advocate to just print more money.

Actually, advocating printing money is not a Keynesian position, it's a Modern Monetary Theory position.

But anyway, I'm arguing against your assertion that political decisions cannot and should not be made about the economy.
Actually I think when Java will finally introduce anonymous functions the Template Pattern will be obsolete. The strategy pattern is IMHO much more flexible and can be used everywhere where the template pattern is used.
Am I the only one who can't stand their interfaces? It looks terribly out of place on OS X (the icons, those tabs!). I don't know why it seems every app built on Java has to look like that.

I had never heard of WebStorm before, and on the wikipedia page, they seem to say that all of its functionalities are part of IntelliJ IDEA.

Is it true ?

If I buy IntelliJ IDEA, will I be able to do everything that can be done in WebStorm ? (just trying to not buy both if it is not necessary)
I think you should give BJP more credit...they know they can't win 272 lok sabha seats...and with Modi as their PM candidate they will (most probably) not get the support of their NDA allies (Nitish in particular). In addition, your last comment about economic growth is just not true. My 2 cents.
Exactly. When The Pirate Bay has an infinite catalog, they can't afford to be picky.
Looks like their servers have had a meltdown ... Clearly they underestimated the planet-wide morphic resonance across software developers for pre-apocalypse deep discounts on IDEs :)

You're right, my language was imprecise, and I'm conflating two events. The Icelandic government declined to recapitalize failing banks, even when under enormous pressure to do so by the UK government and others. The pressure you may know was partly due to various local government bodies and other institutions having deposits with Icelandic banks.

Because the Icelandic government declined to act as insurer for those deposits, the insolvency of them was seen as an effective write off of national indebtedness to other sovereigns.

Agree it's not the same thing though.
When I read martythemaniak's comment with its talk of "some people", "the mainstream camp" and "high profile economists" it's unclear who these groups are.

Monetarists? Keynesians? Advocates of lower government spending? Advocates of tax increases to cut government debt? Or tax cuts to spur growth? Advocates of higher government spending? Spending on bailouts? Countercyclical government spending on infrastructure projects? Academic economists at universities, who don't put their money where their mouth is? Big city financiers, who got us into this mess? Government economist-politicians, who have to be perpetually upbeat to try to keep the market confident? 'The Stock Market' which isn't even a person? Bloggers and columnists? Advocates of lower interest rates? Higher interest rates? Republicans? Democrats?

Needless to say, as I didn't know who was being talked about I couldn't derive much meaning from martythemaniak's comment.
Interestingly I thought roughly the same while watching the 3D HFR version - the first half of the movie felt awkwardly paced and didn't engage me much, the second half was much more enjoyable.
It's my understanding that Idea can do everything the other products can do. The others are just cheaper as they have limited features.

EDIT - From reading the comments I think appCode is separate but the others can be installed as plug-ins to IDEA, I presume for free.
When I was a Sys Admin in USA, your salary never increased unless you left the company and took a job elsewhere. Those were your raises, and it's why SA turnover is so high and how even companies just treat them as a dime a dozen now a days.

In so doing you saved the company the cost of finding, hiring and bringing your replacement up to speed. It's a bullshit argument because the speaker doesn't care if you believe them.
Demanding? Questions to answer?

1. They put up a temporary site notice asking for donations. They don't advertise on the project, and their sole source of funding is though donations. Very demanding.

2. What questions, specifically, does the article raise in your mind? Note - I say "questions", and not vague and ill formulated doubts.
Ready 0.5 - cellular automata on arbitrary polygonal and polyhedral meshes
I downloaded a trial of PhpStorm last week, and loaded an old CodeIgniter project into it.

The app flagged objects, methods, and variables that were created in other files as "undefined."

I could see how that would be helpful under other circumstances, but does anyone know if PhpStorm is set up to play nice with most PHP frameworks?

Also: For smaller projects, is there any advantage to buying a Python IDE over just using a tricked out version of Vi?

Auto complete is nice & all, but Vi is Vi.

I agree that the foundation could do a better job at actually propagating that the running costs of wikipedia are not the server costs, but also the cost of governance and evolution and that alot of the results of that make wikipedia better in the end.

So the angle of advertisement may be improvable, but I still think that it is worthwile to fund all their other projects through donations.
Sold.
Thanks everyone, this is why i love this community =)
I'm not following. Why are people reluctant to donate? And why do you say that? The donation drives are quite successful!

You could steal ideas from Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, and several other Distro for giving codename to their release.

For example, in Debian, they take a character name in Toy Story for their codename. In Ubuntu, they take an animal name in alphabetical order.

There is normally a little bit of setup to do in getting it to detect objects, methods, and variables. Normally I have to add some stuff into the libraries section. (Sometimes this doesn't work when there is a lot of indirection.)

It does play nicely with Zend and Silex (and other composer-style frameworks). I'm not sure about Symfony or CodeIgnitor.

I must say I really like PyCharm as a Python IDE. Tricked out vim is just too hard to install onto new machines, etc.
I'd rather they use my money to buy themselves more hard drive so they wouldn't have to delete as many articles.

I feel there are enough music and politician articles already on Wikipedia. The fringe articles are what would drive more participants to WP, were they not deleted.
Apparently The Register think that because people don't get paid (and in fact are specifically not allowed to get paid), that the editors of Wikipedia are somehow being hard done by.

Seems ridiculous - very much a biased piece against Wikipedia, not well researched, and not particularly cogent.
22 EU governments actually signed ACTA:

http://www.geekosystem.com/acta-primer/

So in theory, they could still adopt it all "independently", I think. I mean I don't think the EU Parliament "rejection" means that they aren't allowed to make their own laws like this if they want to, does it? It's just that they might not do it because of the whole backlash and because the EU Parliament rejected it, too, and it would look very bad if they tried it now. Although they might still try to include parts of it in different laws and try to do it as stealthily as possible, but it's very unlikely most of them would do that right now.

Ask HN: any startup that wants to spend two months in Copenhagen?
Hi Guys,

Do you know a team (up to 15 people) who might want to live in Copenhagen's sexiest office space between 1. Feb - 2. Apr. 2013?

We are going to be in San Francisco for those two months and our office in Copenhagen will be free.

Email me at francesco [at] evertale [dot] com for more details.

Using IntelliJ 12 with Darcula enabled with with a custom dark scheme, looks very nice actually.

The Cocoa bindings for Java are deprecated; so "every app built on Java" _has_ to look like that.

I'd rather have a good and usable tool than a pretty one; instead of wasting time fighting unsupported bindings or trying to replicate them (likely poorly).
Ah .. He expected it to reach the unreachable code? I thought that it did reach `return R`, which would be totally strange and could indeed be explained by a compiler bug. (Or more likely, by side effects in the code between the two checks)
I pay UK, and if I go over the limit I pay US on extras.
That's a completely ridiculous number, because you're adding up short term transactions. If you lend me, and I pay back immediately, $100 every day for a year, you did not lend me $36,500.
A friend says it's a lot nicer. I convinced him to try it because I use Intellij and love it. He now loves PyCharm.

Also, you can always give it a spin for free and see if you like it. I think just simple things like startup times and auto complete speed will make you want it.
The tax freedom day chart - http://taxfoundation.org/tax-topics/tax-freedom-day (scroll down a bit) is a better metric because in looks at all the taxes for the average taxpayer.
Is there a reason you need Webstorm? From what I have tried to find, Pycharm includes Webstorm features and any missing features (Node.js) can be downloaded as a plugin.

Do you know any specific feature that you are looking for that is not in Pycharm?
I am in a similar situation and was wondering the same.
Well, it seems like a nuanced issue. There are both homeless people who are lazy and unlucky and rich people who are lazy but lucky. I think the OP has a general disdain for lazy people, regardless whether they are rich or homeless. I rather doubt he'd be praising some trust fund baby who's also lazy.

The Tegra 4 is based on the Cortex A15, and the A15 makes things very interesting for high-power ARM mobile computing.

"Judging by how slow your site is at 7am EST, I'd say your sale is a big success :)"

I'm not using any proxy service, but was just taken to the Czech version of the site. At the bottom of the prices page "Purchases from Czech Republic are charged in EUR. If you are not from Czech Republic, please select your country", unfortunately, the United States isn't on the list. So I'd say they're more than slow at the moment.
"And though Instagram CEO Kevin Systrom has had to react and has promised this won't happen, at least one big publisher isn't buying it: National Geographic"

Why does Kevin have to 'promise' not to use your photos? This is what terms and conditions are for, so that 'promise' isn't worth the paper it's not written on.
Damn! Only bought phpStorm last week, would have been nice to have got a 75% reduction.
Paying an employee enough to keep him from leaving, before he declares that he's leaving, could be seen as a form of early optimization.

We don't like early optimization, for good reasons. "They" probably don't like it either, for similar reasons. No reason to fix the employee machine if it isn't making noise.
I expect to see people change jobs often early in their careers. But once they've been in the business for a few years, changing jobs or projects that often is a bad sign. It's not just the fear that they'll leave quickly, but it's a sign that they possibly can't get along with anyone or aren't competent. It also means that they've never been on a project long enough to experience the results of their decisions on architecture, coding, etc.
Nooooooooooooooo... I bought the Intellij IDEA 12 upgrade 3 days ago... I paid 111€ (including VAT) instead of 27€... I now it's irrational, but I'm sad.
I've used Xcode for C programming. It's great for that on a mac, esepcially since debugging is built in and I don't have to turn to DDD all the time. And so far it's only crashed about 3-4 times during the 6-8 months I was using it pretty much daily.
The issue is that wikipedia has necessary expenses (keeping the servers running) and optional ones (paying people to take photos of German music festivals). Yet all their guilt-tripping asking for money is focused on the necessary expenses. I'm sure that is more effective, but that doesn't mean I don't feel misled.

"It's my job to take responsibility for getting what I want out of my classes, and while I think that's generally a solid policy..."

You instead are looking for excuses. If you went on to say that you had one bad professor, and backed that up with some meaningful examples of how this person committed unconscionable sins of pedagogy and abused puppies and kittens, then perhaps, some venting might be understandable as an exception to a deeply practiced value of personal responsibility for your learning.

But when the bad professors are legion and the alleged offenses petty and trifling, the claim to virtue seems suspect.

To expect a professor to spend time twiddling their thumbs waiting for someone to drop by and complain that their grade was unfair and their life thereby ruined is a bit absurd. Office hours are times when appointments are available.

Out in the world of money, the answers aren't in the back of the book. When something is wrong a professional must figure it out, themselves. Learning how to struggle is important. Good professors take their students where they need to go. Some go with a smile. Others must be dragged.
How Google Scales MySQL on YouTube with Go code called Vitess
PHPStorm plays nice when any framework. The issue it's going to have is when Frameworks do not clearly document, or when they make bad decisions about things. You can, of course turn off different levels of inspections to account for the project you are working on. However, I've found that for the most part, if PHPStorm is flagging something like "undefined method," it's essentially saying "you are hoping that this works as expected." It's a form of static analysis.

I'm not surprised that an old CodeIgniter project flagged these issues.

As for vi, I use vi every day as well. I switch between that and PHPStorm. It depends on the context that I'm in. Both are wonderful tools. But I can assure you, auto-complete is a basic feature of PHPStorm. It's akin to 'set nu'.

Edit: This comment comes off as a bit snarky. It's not intended to be. I think JetBrains and it's line of products are excellent, and I've only ever had good experiences with them. I wouldn't want my comment to reflect poorly on them.
The question it raises in my mind is how much of my donation is going to fund the servers and bandwidth and what they are always asking for money for, and how much is going to other things that I would not agree are worthy of my charity dollars.
Is it cherry-picking? I don't feel that it is. That GDP graph shows a normal moderate growth from 2000 right through to the crash. There was the slightest of upticks in the last year before the crash, but hardly enough to qualify as a boom. Which means that it is entirely fair to categorize Estonia's economic performance as normal just before the crash, and pretty lousy since.

At any rate, I was in Tallinn in June of this year, and the locals I talked to in bars and cafes were all very pessimistic about how the country was going. Maybe pessimism is just a cultural norm, but everyone that I asked felt that Estonia had gone backwards since the crash, and was still doing so...
