Have you tried just using Jira for this as well?

* "First-class item" => Make a custom work-item type for "Requirement"

* "have comments attached" => Jira comments

* "Generate a task/see tasks completed" => Add items as sub-tasks

* "Version control" => Jira history tab

* "Bugs filed against req" => New issue, link to Requirement

Confluence also has pretty good integration with Jira if you want to write longer/formal documents - you can link to Jira items and the wiki page will update the status of the item automatically.

Raising Money for the Sake of Raising Money - Difficult Exits
Yeah, I've never looked at CipherCloud's security in depth, but you could do tokenization in a fairly secure way. There's essentially a triangle of security, functionality-of-SaaS-app, and complexity of the proxy.

One issue is access patterns might leak information, so if you wanted maximum security you'd end up doing crazy things like heavily caching or accessing extra "chaff records" periodically. Well before that point you'd probably just give up on the SaaS app entirely.
Minis can be easily disassembled so if I were you I'd try those ifixit reviews where they do it and compare the connectors. Chances are still unknown though.
Got a Galaxy Nexus here, makes me wonder why people buy iPhones -- truly amazing device, am sorted for awhile here, zero need to get the latest & greatest from Google just yet (although $350 with Gorilla Glass is a pretty absurd deal).

What's the iPhone running these days factory unlocked? Gotta be at least $650 USD, no? I don't understand.
I believe that this was coined in the book "Dark Pools."
Totally understand, apologies if my comment came across as harsh, just trying to make sure we look at compensation data correctly since some of those numbers look a bit high relative to what I would imagine the market 50th percentile being for newer startups.
You want to define "mass destruction" as some number dead and injured? I'm fine with that. You want to define it as the intent to kill and/or maim a certain number of people? I'm fine with that too.

But that's not the way the law is worded. Right now, a high-school student playing around with blackpowder in an effort to blow up his neighbor's mailbox is flirting around with getting a WMD charge. Do you want that in the same category as this? I don't.
I wouldn't buy it.

I'm a C++ programmer with over 10 years, I buy software books, but I basically only go for well vetted books.

I dislike a chapter heading reading "Exception throwing destructors" even if that is a one page chapter with one big word "Don't." It also happens to be the type of thing I already expect a professional C++ programmer to know.

Actually, the only chapter I found interesting is #12 (MapReduce) and it doesn't really have much to do with reliable C++. But after reading up on this, I found that it gained little interest in boost [1], and its description in [2] is rather bland. Compare the description for N3554. So, instead, a book with only chapters like #12 but which touched on very useful, well-tested libraries would actually be more interesting. Not the normal libraries, the usual ones like boost in which professional programmers should already be adept, but some other ones that are real gems nonetheless. But all that is assuming that I would still be interested in writing C++ code.

However, I don't really see a future for C++ for most purposes, so "Scala for Profesional C++ Programmers" may be even more interesting.

While I can't claim that we logged CPU load while running these tests, I can say that I watched the output of top and iotop and that the CPU load was relatively light. It's also worth pointing out that Amazon describes the I/O performance of c1.xlarge instances as "high". We also considered using an hs1.8xlarge "High Storage" instance for these tests, but eventually decided that we were more interested in testing against conventional disks as opposed to SSDs.

"a lot has evolved" for "a lot has changed" - faux-smart business english?
Tricky, because you need to define the components (hands, face down piles, face up piles, etc.) and the actions that can be done with each of them, and then design ways to handle them all in a UI that isn't overly cumbersome for the specific subset needed to play any given game.

Its a good idea and it is certainly possible, though.
Definitely a reason I have always paid for Gmail/Drive before it was that. But the actual reason is quite scary why it triggered the issue:

"My data was intact save for the last thing I’d worked on–a spreadsheet containing a client’s account numbers and passwords. It seems that Google’s engineers determined this single document violated policy and locked down my entire account. My request to get that document back is still pending."

So you can't keep files you need to secure in Drive? Blown away by this. And the access to the entire ecosystem based on one document. This is not good. With that logic if there is a DCMA request or problem with a video on youtube the whole site should just shut down.

Woah, $55 for that panel? Seems like it costs less than $100 including the PCB stuff, I'm really tempted to do this but I don't have the time :(. Heck, I'd buy a reasonably finished version of this for $150, maybe $200, without thinking too much. That's pretty awesome.
Windows RT didn't break any compatibility because Windows RT was built on the ARM hardware platform. Win32 was just a software platform on Intel's hardware platform and won't work on ARM's hardware.
Its not just about working or not. E.g. yahoo vs google. They both work, just google works better. Myspace worked too, just facebook worked better. Even in the cases where things have failed in the past, it can be difficult to figure out why. Do you think that the iPhone was the first smartphone?
No, more like "ignore analysts."

Agreed. A future enhancement I plan to make on the results viewer is the capacity to select from a menu of results files (the results are rendered from results.json files). Once that is in place, anyone who cares to could run the full suite on EC2 extra-large or, say, Rackspace Cloud, and submit those results files for us to include as options.
Jean Smith has a really great, concise book that outlines what to "do" if you're just starting out with meditation. It's called "The Beginner's Guide to Zen Buddhism" and is absolutely great for beginners.

It's not the end-all-be-all book for meditation (or Buddhism) but it is a good starting place I think.

The basic outline is that it's 5 exercises, three times a week, with three exercises per day - you alternate some of them. It should take about an hour including warm ups.

There's a wiki, but buy the book. For equipment, you'll need weights, a barbell, squat rack, and bench. It's all stuff a gym should have, or is relatively easy to find on craigslist for cheap.
Ruins your restful sleep because your body does this thing where it tries to overcompensate for the depressing effect of the alcohol by overstimulating things. You may fall asleep more easily, but then your actual sleep will suck, compared to a non-alcoholic induced sleep.

R&R's defense strategy seems currently to pretend that they weren't claiming anything in particular by the paper originally: "hey man, I was just putting it out there. I didn't, like, mean anything by it."

But their own public pronouncements, and the way they responded to other's interpretations of the results, pretty much indicated that they though they'd found firm evidence that there was some big non-linearity at 90%.

I disagree with that part of your statement. Take for example, Dropbox. The main difference between Dropbox and previous attempts was not timing, but rather execution.
I think having data open and available is good for everyone.

The more I learn about this particular incident, the more I feel the scandal is not (a) that famous harvard professors made a mistake, or (b) that microsoft excel is more error prone than alternatives (which seems like nonsense to me because the more complex the replacement the more error prone it will be)...

To me the scandal is that you can be a tenured professor in economics and produce work that amounts to simple averages of widely available data and call it a research paper, and that people take you seriously, and presidential candidates use you as a reference, and your department doesn't bat an eyelash.

The fact that they screwed up seems incidental - mistakes happen.

It seems like the kind of back-of-the envelope work that any old blogger would be capable of doing, we just don't have a way to take good ideas, no matter where they come from, seriously. no matter how much we profess to try - at heart, the consensus is still status-driven, and pedigrees matter.

Can't any of those high-functioning brain cells be put to good use learning social skills and choosing to practice a higher level of empathy?

In my experience, I've found that applying the Golden Rule and "seeking first to understand" generally takes conscious effort and practice... and it's also my assumption that I'm not the only one on the planet like that, seeing as how Steven Covey's "7 Habits" book spent 1/7th of the book on developing empathetic habits.

One virtue of recent version of Windows is that system files have ACLs tied to "TrustedInstaller" and/or "System" so that even a user that's an Administrator cannot delete the files. You literally have to hack a login as SYSTEM or take ownership of the files. It's a big pain.

Also, don't most Linux distros have protections in place so that "*" skips over ".", thus only deleting the contents of the current folder and not the entire system?

I wasn't aware that Reiser4 supported compression. Thanks for pointing that out. As for why we chose to use ZFS instead of Btrfs, we feel that ZFS is closer to being in a state where an enterprise customer would be comfortable deploying it in production. This is due to the fact that ZFS has been in development for over a decade with many Solaris sites already using it in production, and Btrfs is still marked as "unstable".
I thought seriously about building and selling something similar to this about 4 years ago - really cool to see someone hack it together. Awesome work Andrzej!

Compact, portable screens seem like a no-brainer to me. My MBA display is less than half an inch thick. Why does my desktop screen need to be significantly thicker? Why not use the same panels from laptops to build a display that can be used both on the desktop and for portable use? I love to use one large/two smaller screens when coding - and I want a display that I can pack into my bag along with my main display and use at a coffee shop. The panels themselves are generally cheap (it's something of a commodity market, but depending on the display size/specs they run $35 to $90)

When I originally started researching this, there were two problems, both of which have been (pretty much) solved:

1 - Connectivity. Laptop panels generally use LVDS, which from my understanding are bit-reversed versions of DVI, possibly with some extra baggage. So you needed to have some intermediary processing, which was then (and is still) possible using a DisplayLink chip. The DisplayLink chip basically uses CPU power to create a virtual DVI/LVDS port over USB. The advantage of DisplayLink is that it negates the necessity for even using the Thunderbolt/DVI/Displayport output of your laptop, and allows you to simply plug in via USB and go. But the chips cost ~$15 each, require non-trivial integration, and use up CPU. As Andrzej mentions, displays are moving towards eDisplayPort, which means you can pretty much plug them in directly.

2 - Power draw. For the display to work well as a portable device, it should be possible to power it via USB alone. USB 2.0 standard is 5V and 0.5A, so 2.5W, which isn't sufficient. But USB 3.0 is 0.9A, bring the total up to 4.5W. As Andrzej mentions, the iPad display can be powered off the Displayport power (3.3W, 0.5A, ~1.9W), and with a step-up convertor you should just about be able to power the backlight up to max brightness from the USB port.

Both those problems are now fixed. You can now build an external display, either using an iPad panel, or that from a 13" MBA or (possibly that of a MBP Retina, not sure about the power requirements there). Then you have an extremely slim, awesome external display that's completely portable and powered by USB.

Some companies have been building crappy versions of this using DisplayLink chips, but I really want to see something with a clean, minimal design and way higher resolution. I'd try at it myself, but I'm busy trying to build software to enable better online political activism. If anyone out there is interested, I'd love to help, either with funding or advice.

A few examples of products that do this (not very well) using DisplayLink chips:

Simple really. Its heritage is single-user desktops. Therefore the security model is often "Don't look in here!" rather than having it done right the first time. Hides filenames; needs antivirus.

Industry standard network/admin/deployment tools don't work as well, if supported. Until a couple of years ago, the only viable way to manage it was from a GUI... they are still figuring out how to run it headless. It's not always compatible with open standards. Shall I continue?

Meanwhile Unix (and others) began life as time-sharing systems that became the original nodes of the internet, a scalable model that Windows has come back to forty years later. That's not to say that it doesn't have any strengths or isn't improving.

The extra cost includes per minute charges on EC2.
> No company money would ever be sitting in bitcoin for more than the few seconds it would take to transfer.

If the contract is in $ and you pay in BTC, you are essentially paying in $ and providing a convenience to the contractor of converting it to BTC for them; assuming you are relatively certain your additional cost would be more than the additional amount they would demand for payment in $ rather than BTC, this is a no brainer (providing that the agreement specifies how you are going to do the conversion, to minimize the risk that you get into a dispute with them over conversion details.)

If the contract is in BTC, the original volatility question ("would you like to be paid in currency that is worth $250 one day and $120 the next") still applies, though rephrased to focus on where your risk is: "Would you like to contract to pay in a currency that might be worth $120 the day you write the contract, and $250 the day you have to make the payment."

Hi jakejake, thanks for the kind words and for contributing your Phreeze test. It's looking real good, and I hope to have at least language color-coding in the next round so you can more easily see how it compares to your PHP peers.

As for your question, I'm not certain why the physical hardware turned in a lower score than EC2. That suggests a configuration problem since we know the physical hardware is in fact quite a bit higher-performance. Pat (pfalls) may be able to find some time to help you diagnose it further.

Have you had a chance to benchmark Phreeze on some of your own hardware to fine-tune its configuration?
From what I understand being drunk when going to sleep relaxes the muscles around your throat increasing your chance of apnea. The relaxed muscles around the throat means that the airway closes yielding a similar effect to choking (which is essentially what apnea is). The end result is that you choke periodically throughout the night meaning that the quality of your sleep is much inferior to what it could be; this is probably a large contributing factor to hangovers.

Edit: My source is a knowledgeable person on the subject, feel free to contradict or doubt the truthfulness of the answer - makes sense to me at least.

You're looking at this completely wrong. It's more about changing your habits than constantly thinking about what you're doing. If as a result you eat better food, the time you're awake is of better quality, and you eat better, do you really think its not worth the slightest bit of effort?

Excellent, thanks much!
It seems extremely unlikely that you could determine the problem from "the last thing I'd worked on", and it seems even more unlikely that a spreadsheet with (barring any additional information from this story) account numbers and passwords would auto-trigger a shutdown: there would be so many false positives that most people would have had their accounts closed by now.
I really wonder how much sleep people lose worrying about their sleep habits.

If you are actually worrying about it, that is bad. If you are thinking about it a little here and there, and trying to improve what you are doing, that is good. It's all about the balance, which is sort of your point too.
Many variables are involved, but my conjecture is that it has more to do with the particulars of Compojure versus Play than it does Clojure versus Scala. For instance, take a look at the numbers put up by other Scala frameworks (Unfiltered, Lift, Scalatra). There's nothing intrinsically slow about Scala.

I agree. We do plan to add Postgres tests in the future. I don't have an ETA for that, however.
I agree with this. I have a wake up alarm, but I'm usually awake before it goes off.

I've also never been a morning person, but when I keep to a strict go-to-bed time, I feel refreshed and awake in the morning even if its early. I guess part of this is that when I'm careful when I go to bed, I also time that I 1) get a plenty of sleep and 2) get up on a 90-minute boundary.

Unfortunately I have a habit of ignoring my go-to-bed alarm :-(
