Github uses Pygments: http://pygments.org/

I don't know what language you're using, but here's a Ruby library for it: https://github.com/tmm1/pygments.rb

Edit: Scrolled down and saw Django. Pygments is native to Python, so you might be in luck if you want to use that.

> I guess the big difference is that not many people write in bytecode, but a lot of people (majority in my experience, which might change) write in pure Javascript

That's purely a matter of preference. If you want, you can write in Java, C# or C++ and compile that to JavaScript, many major websites use that approach.

The fact that many people still write pure JavaScript shows the opposite of what the article says: People like it and are productive with it. If they were not, they would more often write in something else and compile to it.
Considering they have a strict AUP they've been remarkably tolerant in what they ban. A few blatantly illegal sub reddits; some sub reddits with borderline illegal content; and some harassment only sub reddits.
I think it's a bad idea to look at what Google does with their search results and then try to apply it to product search.

Users have a very different set of goals, with Google we know that the falloff from the top search result to the bottom is huge, people expect that the relevant results are the top couple.

With product search there's different goals, for example browsing an minimal set of criteria looking for a results--you're looking a pair of jeans and starting with 36x32; or the opposite you just want to know the price of a pair of New Balance 990s in a 11 4E.

In the latter case infinite scroll or not doesn't come into play, but the browsing case it does, and from the point of view as an Etsy customer, I have the most difficulties.

One of the things I've found the most is people do better with a task if they can understand how long it's going to take. If you know there's 100 search results over 5 pages, you can decide if that's too much to go through. As an aside, this is true of a lot of things, you'll do better with pull-ups if I tell you to do 20 and give you a count, than just tell you to keep going until I say "stop".

With infinite scroll you've got no idea how much effort looking through the total search results is going to take. Etsy don't make things easy, as an example Art > Custom Portraits[1]. I have no idea how many results there are, I can scroll all the way to the bottom and find out there are at least 8 pages, but that's it.

The search results themselves are pretty snappy, so I don't see a huge advantage of infinite scrolling. I do think the search results are pretty bad and the lack of filtering is a problem. From Art > Custom Portraits I can filter on just Pets or Silhouettes or More (which I assume is everything else). It's not obvious what these links do either, they are just floating at the top.

Some better filtering, e.g. by price, would help. I'm not sure what other metadata Etsy have that would be useful for an great faceted search.

As an aside, I've been working on (product) search for over a decade and I'm close by the Etsy offices; over a coffee I'd be happy to discuss search. Part of my New Years resolution is to do a better job of networking, so I'm happy to extend this offer to any other NYC based e-commerce shops.

I'm a part of other great non-Reddit communities, some pre-dating Reddit, some that came later. Some of them have moved across forum software changes, URL changes, and ownership changes.

What is it that makes you think Reddit communities are a different animal? Were Reddit to disappear, I'm sure those communities would find new homes. From where I'm sitting, the problem with basing Reddit's valuation on those communities is that Reddit doesn't own those communities.

You can't always tell a community what to do (like how one can't build an HN replacement and expect the community to simply follow you there). If the steps Reddit takes to try to make a big return on investment anger those communities, the communities are free to leave. My view is that the network effects of Reddit are not nearly as strong as those of a Facebook or Instagram, and even those appear to be having some difficulty getting as much value out of their communities as they want.
That means you adjusted back quickly, but it doesn't really answer the question. Which is: If you have coffee almost every day, does it still provide you an alertness boost?
| "sign-on to view this content"

This is the sole reason I'll never open an account there. Fortunately, if I really want to see some of their answers, I can just delete the overlay div in the developer console.

edit: It looks like they've fixed it so you can no longer just delete the overlay. Parts of the text are replaced by images of blurred text now. Oh well.
No, what you have here is a slide deck about standard or standards-track features that includes features that don't all work cross-browser yet, and may change significantly before they do. When people respond like this to slide decks, I always wonder what they would have preferred? A video of the presentation, but no live version? Screenshots of the working draft text of the spec?

This is a slide deck for developers. It explicitly says what browser it currently works in and where it might break. Developers usually have more than one browser installed, which makes this not that big of a deal. It does highlight explicitly, however, that developers will then have a choice to make if they want to use those features and want them to work cross browser. They will either have to work to implement (or find an existing) cross-browser polyfill, or they will just have to be patient while the feature is specced and implementations deploy.

There is tension here, admittedly, because eager developers will always push new features that aren't available universally yet, because it allows them to do something new. This is why, for instance, in some cases Mozilla has moved away from vendor prefixing to instead exposing some proposed features in only alpha and beta builds, so that developers won't be tempted to use them in production (which means breaking changes in a spec will break already deployed websites) until the spec is settled. This hopefully will be picked up by other browser vendors (though, again, only for some features). I know some Chrome developers have been very receptive to this approach.

In the meantime, it's good to educate yourself (as a developer) and others about what is coming, especially because while something is still coming (and not here yet) you can still go join a w3c/whatwg mailing list and give feedback.

For instance, you could start with your Audio APIs question by looking to the Audio Working Group:

http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-audio/

Install wine, run installer. Done. http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&...

It was a joy to read that.

I'd still like to learn more about how others experience what has been in Paul Graham's text and what I myself described. I mentioned possible lack of dopamine, but I could also add after-effects of jogging (I rarely code anything before doing such, because I think so much better after aerobic exercise).

Generally speaking, I'd like to learn why it could (sometimes) happen that mentioned "withdrawing" process starts too early and happens too quickly. It has a lot to do with different biological systems (circulatory system, endocrine system, nervous system, etc.).
I shared my thoughts about some features I would love to see in the future: http://throwww.com/a/2r4 ;)
> I think more clearly with coffee

Was that your baseline level without coffee? That's hard to know.
I'm pretty sure that's the case, at least for myself. If I drink coffee every day, then I have normal levels of mental function when I am on caffeine and lower than normal at other times. I like coffee though and decaf just doesn't have the flavor, so I alternate weeks with and without coffee. Seems to work for me.
People would have said the same about MySpace or text-only Usenet at one time.

Imgur has some voting stuff now, and it'll be interesting to see if that helps it take off or not.

And there are other sites trying to develop good communications. Hubski, for example.
Everything looks great, other than the fact I'm still forced to use a broken language to interact with shiny new APIs:

I think he's saying that Reddit will eventually reach a point where the interests of its community and the site itself WILL diverge to some extent.

It's something that has to happen and will happen to the best of em, and it just depends on how Reddit chooses to handle the situation.

A really great example of good monetization I think is Ultimate Guitar. The site used to be completely free and the community of musicians was and still is unparalleled on the internet. They've monetized pretty heavily over the years by offering paid tools and more features/premium-content for musicians (even making their own mobile apps for things like tuners, tabs, etc). I think it was a great way to monetize the community on top of ads. However, it benefits from having a very specific focus (music) and a very focused and passionate community which makes the process of monetization a little easier.

The problem Reddit will have I think is that the community is extremely open, unfocused, and unrestricted (as well as having multiple sub-communities). Its very user-driven so it becomes difficult to creatively monetize without infringing on their "freedoms" or "openness". For example, I think /r/iama would be a great outlet for brands to come and have a conversation with the community (for example, before a movie release). However, that subreddit is ALREADY used like that, and it's very open. Anyone (including any brand) can come in and do an AMA so any type of monetization would have to to be a complement to the community (can't monetize the community itself without killing it or pissing people off). So how can Reddit monetize without just resorting to ads and promoted content? It's a difficult question and I don't see a clear answer.

If they do decide to do stuff like "featured" posts, I think they will have to be very very careful to not clutter up the user-upvoted content and hopefully they'll work hard to make the "featured" stuff interesting to the community. They'll have to make some important decisions when monetizing and I wish them the best of luck.
It's not really a prefix, though, because there's a struct called "Logger", and there are some enums that begin with 'k', and there's a #define called "ALLOW_COCOA_USE", just like something somebody might put in their own code.

If you're writing a library, you really need to prefix absolutely every last stupid symbol, right down to the header include guards. If you don't, even if they don't end up conflicting with something, you'll have people like me moaning about it. (But I don't moan about it because it's never caused me a problem in the past.)

Looks like a neat library though!

For what? I hate to be that guy, but I have seen a huge increase in "OP is a faggot" style posts being upvoted in the main subreddits (just in the last 4 weeks). I've always championed finding niche subreddits, and I do, but the result has been me spending increasingly little time on reddit. I check /r/rust, /r/golang, etc but that's about all I can stand.

To say that Samsung "spends loads of money in advertising, just like Apple" is a bit stretching the truth, if Horace Dediu's estimations are to be believed:

I'm not so sure that there's an analogous Genius Bar for photo editing because the audience* doesn't care about real editing.

It seems like modern consumer photography has deteriorated to the "filter = art" style and most of my friends (20-35 demographic) don't seem to spend time doing things like contrast & lighting adjustments. I still do, but only for photos which will make it out of my Lightroom or iPhoto library which accounts for maybe 5-15% of what I actually shoot and keep.

*Perhaps the audience is predominantly outside my own 20-35 demographic and I've made a bad assumption; it's early to tell.

Honest question: why does everybody seem to want to compile out logging on release builds? Yes, if you're "printf debugging" that probably shouldn't be in a release build. But I've found the ability to look at (optional, user-enabled) logs invaluable in tracking down some obscure bugs in production.

I understand where you're coming from now. I think your delivery needed work -- it relied too much on your own mental context.

Since the OP was critical of K&R, it made sense to interpret your remark in that context rather than the one you mention.
I think everyone should keep in mind that this presentation was (seemingly) created in 2011, so a couple things might be out of date (e.g. BlobBuilder is now deprecated).
I don't understand why infinite scroll implementations don't precalculate how long the page will be when all results have loaded. This would allow the scroll bar to actually indicate how far through the results you are(I'm thinking etsy not google images where they could keep going for days...). The second issue I have with them is that they wait until you scroll to the bottom of the page before more results are loaded. Why not just keep filling the results out until they're all loaded, that way the user wouldn't experience the loading glitch whenever they scroll down. For bonus points they could allow you to scroll to any point in the results before they're loaded and have the items at that point loaded while you're watching.

Hubski looks interesting. I'll keep an eye on them, though do they do still look very tiny.

I don't think Imgur will ever take off. There is no fostering of individual subcultures like there was with subreddits. Basically their entire content revolves around funny images. Their comments never become thoughtful like reddit's.

MySpace started in 2003 and lost the battle to FB in 2008. Reddit was founded and has been growing steady and strong for 7 years, killing competitor Digg along the ride (Digg mainly caused it's own decline but I find the easy availability of a close competitor made it much easier).

I stand by the above statement. Reddit's community grew slowly and organically while the admins went through great pains to remain as "hands-off" as they could. They have major respect for their community and understand that that's the make-or-break aspect of the site.
Because of the cult of extroversion and "self-confidence", which leads people to make their statements over-confident, over-loud, even over-aggressive.

A person which shares these traits significantly less than the average of the group will of course tend not to be heard.

If he doesn't speak up louder and does not insist on his points, what can he possibly have to say? :-/

Doesn't matter that much who thinks it is a good idea. It is still a straight sacrifice of user experience in the name of capturing more user details and monetization.
I've been using ruby for about or over now not sure any longer 10 years. I ignore the general ruby community most of the time, you can too it isn't hard.

You can ignore the ruby community at large and still be productive. I don't see why (pun intended) if you don't use rails, you care about DHH, or Zed or whatever.

If you're unable to overlook _why as a fun programmer who happens to program ruby, I guess thats ok, but you really are missing out on an interesting language. I'd say the same thing about someone worrying about Guido and Python. Stretching that last analogy but I honestly don't know of any other programmer-artist that quite fits into the vein of _why. He is/was really unique.
When I actively read them, I valued the communities of Slashdot, Fark and Metafilter just as much as I value the Reddit community. Reddit is less unique in that regard than you might think. It is absolutely more replaceable than the New York Times. It's mindboggling that I even had to type that last sentence.

jessriedel is correct. That's true of most cases. Alas, not mine.

Interesting view, jperras. For me the caffeine changed loomed largest, partly because it was a nearly continuous part of my day. Eating meals was a handful of hours; ditto adding exercise. But I usually had coffee/soda to hand.

>If the steps Reddit takes to try to make a big return on investment anger those communities,

Yes, but that won't happen. They've been incredibly hands-off for the past 7 years. They basically worked their asses off on too few engineers for years, and during all that time kept showing almost no ads, and if they did they did it on the far right where almost no one notices.

Just because they're raising capital now, doesn't mean they'll go out and fuck it up. Whatever outside money they take on, they'll be extremely conscientious about retaining control or their future stakeholders sharing their values.

If you have something to say that starts with "I hate to be that guy" then just don't say it.

You're not their main audience, and they're massively popular. They're continuing to grow in popularity, and they're becoming increasingly relevant as a primary source of information. Reddit represents a fundamental step forward in how the internet interconnects everyday people.

You may not see anything worthwhile, but in reality it's one of the most exciting future prospects of the internet in general. It has the potential to affect and influence generations. Something like that is truly special.

You're correct about not trying to fix the sleep schedule before kicking caffeine. I was just too damned busy, for far too long.
Cf my above comment about caffeine's continuous nature, too.
When you see drastic and sudden changes in reddit, it's usually something external. In this case the beginning of December marks the end of the semester for college and high school students, who use reddit more during reading period/christmas break. They will soon start school again and things will return to normal.

That kind of behavior has been pretty much the norm for years at reddit. Not to say it's ubiquitous, reddit still has great content and what I'd call 'safe' subreddits where that behavior isn't tolerated. Also, to be clear to those who don't know, 'OP is a faggot' is supposed to be an ironic meme rather than hate speech. A terrible meme, but I wouldn't want people to misunderstand and think reddit has become a cesspool of hate.
> Instagram wasn't "worth $1B". It was worth $1B to Facebook

Which, (given a fixed supply of exactly 1 Instgram) means that it was worth $1B.

Whether Facebook overpaid (ie, whether they would have been better off spending part or all of that $1B elsewhere) is a completely separate question - the point is, the market valued Instagram at $1B.
