If Apple releases a wearable, it'll be an interesting test to see if competitors have learned from Apple's success. As in, will the iWearable be as fundamentally different from other watches/bracelets as the iPhone was from prior smartphones? Or will it be essentially the Apple version of the Pebble/Jawbone Up?

Being late to the game didn't stop Apple from dominating smartphones and mp3 players, but at those times (6 and 12 years ago respectively), they were the only ones focusing on design, simplicity and ease-of-use.

Here's a radical idea: If you don't want DRM on your website, don't put DRM on your website.

While I'm not going to dispute this, I do disagree with it.

> First of all why do they care if public is interested in space? Aren't they after all, looking to run a successful and profitable business?

These goals aren't distinct. What's hard for people to remember is that running a successful and profitable business is a means. It's a how; the real question is what the end goal is. For a painfully large number of businesses, the goal appears to be making the CEO rich. But some groups, some CEOs, some businesses have goals that a lot of us would consider better: actually advancing humanity forward or providing quality service or the like.

We have a bunch of examples here, you'd probably be most interested in our TodoMVC (and TodoMVC-backbone, and possibly bootstrap) ones:

https://github.com/facebook/react/tree/master/examples/

React is not a standard MVC framework -- we simply strive to be a fast and easy-to-use way to build UI components. You can integrate with any backend (or frontend!) stack that you want.

The reason you'd probably want to use React is that there aren't a lot of concepts to learn, it's fast out of the box, and it ensures that your UI stays consistent with your data without manually specifying data bindings or anything like that.
The only true solution to the problem of DRM is to kill Hollywood. It's unlikely to happen, though. Many others have reiterated on this point, so I'm not going to waste my time iterating yet once more.

The Web is going to get DRM one way or another.

Now we can do this the easy way, with standards that are agreed upon across vendors -- or the hard way, with proprietary plug-ins that only work in Windows and Internet Explorer.
I think that you're right about the intent of the author, but unless I'm mistaken, that's not what the code does. If _ok is false, it boils down to
if(!(Math.random() > 0.1))) which is the same as if(Math.random() <= 0.1), which means it will return early only 10% of the time, so the exception gets logged 90% of the time.

It creates dynamic content on the client side.

When you need this, you need it. When you don't, prefer static html.

Keep in mind, the folks who write developer documentation for things like this have had their head in this problem space for a long time. So there's less explanation of the "what" and "why", and examples tend to be more oriented to the "how".
They were sold because that body belonged to someone (or some group) due to it being on their property. One cannot just go on somebody's property and take whatever they find and give it to anyone else in the name of "scientific discovery".
That's extremely narrow-minded.

First of all, the DRM is proprietary. Those using open-source browsers like Firefox or Chromium won't be able to view any sites that push DRM at their will; especially if it's integrated INTO the web standard itself. It doesn't only affect web developers, it affects users, and the fact that you can't see that is astonishing. I don't know whether to be appalled or amazed, to be honest.

Normally, when DRM is implemented, it has been done so through plugins and other proprietary solutions, but the core technologies in the web -- HTML, CSS, and JavaScript -- have been open, and they should stay open. Implementing proprietary DRM in an open standard is a slap in the face for Mozilla and Google, who want an open Web. And everyone else wants an open Web too, not just the big organizations.

And third, let's just face it -- DRM fucking sucks.
Colo. Gov. Signs Bills To Establish A Legal, Regulated Pot Market
> Ruby community somehow avoided this fate, and almost everyone pushed for Ruby on Rails as the single dominant web framework of choice for Ruby.

Well, that's not really true. There was considerable pushback against RoR as a web framework, leading to lots of alternatives, most notably Merb, and to Rack as an underlying platform for web frameworks.

Eventually, though, Merb and Rails merged, Rails incorporated Rack, and Rails incorporated a mechanism for running other Rack applications as endpoints alongside traditional Rails endpoints. Furthermore, while Rails is the dominant full-stack framework (largely, through having directly incorporated much of the competition into Rails), there's plenty of alternatives for many of Rails core components (e.g., lots of alternative ORMs to ActiveRecord.)
It still reads "... I've written four web applications from scratch using Ruby on Rails. ... I learned new things ..."

It is understandable that you want to convey some sense of authority, i.e. you being the domain expert. I could be wrong but that will not sell it as much as highlighting the PAINS people face (provided they do).

I'd much rather sell them on pains - something that resonates deeply with them - like "Did you ever try to implement Stripe integration and lost sales as a result of some bug?"

If you do your market research diligently, you won't have to 'invent' those pains/scenarios - people will tell you. As Ogilvy said initial customer research is a must for good copywriting.

It is easy to focus on what YOU know, what YOU experienced, how it helped YOU. But to take it a step further you need to talk to other people.

Everyone deserve a fair trial, but it's a different thing to try to have a judge recuse herself based on a tenuous connection. The connection here is that the judge's husband is allegedly one of the 860,000 Stratfor clients affected by the hack. That's way too tenuous a connection. A valid basis for recusal would be something like her husband being one of the owners of Stratfor.
This hits home as I just finished a very well known part-time course-work only (with a pseudo-thesis option) program.

I actually have a little different opinion - what's killing the value of an MS in CS is the fact that CS curriculum is becoming Software Engineering under a different name. Let me be clear - there is NOTHING wrong with Software Engineering but as someone who is more interested in NP completeness, computability, static analysis, machine learning, etc - much of what passes for CS cirriculum in course-work only programs simply isn't.

The programming courses I took were Intro to Programming I & II.

I'm generally worried about two points I'm deficient in: subjects that require formal education (I don't know if I can learn about compilers on my own, for example), and subjects that require advanced math.

This is kind of like saying, "The DVD CSS system is fine! You are not forced to use this DRM when you make a video DVD!" Why should the users be forced to deal with more of this nonsense?

The issue is not about websites it is about us. I do not want DRM on my computer, and I do not want to be excluded from the web as a result of that choice.
Yes. Preferably with contribution from people who have been doing this long enough that they really <i>can</i> call it a lifestyle business, not just something they tried for six months between jobs.

I'd also be interested in the converse -- people who tried it and decided to go back to a "real" job, and their reasoning.
And equally you can use it even if it isn't in the standard.
I've never come across an offer that couldn't be negotiated, and I never would take the first offer. That includes offers from companies that "don't negotiate".

I'd walk rather than accepting an offer that truly can't be negotiated, because if the company is so inflexible that they can't even yield a tiny little bit, then that's a huge red flag to me.

You probably want to find out max_connections for your server.

Then figure out how many other connections you'll need outside your server (rails console, cron jobs, commandline) subtract that and you have your number.

I like to have about 10 spare connections.

Running

select name, setting from pg_settings where name = 'max_connections';

in postgres. I see I have 100 max connections.

So that minus 10 gives me a pool size of 90.
It's great to be passionate but it's also important to be detached about things you can't control.

This is fantastic advice, and one of the main things I tried to drill into my team (when I had one), with fairly mixed success. It's very hard to convince people who are attached to a project that they should at any point just go "meh, what can you do?" but sometimes that really is your only option. Advice for any startups in this situation - if you really have to impose some awful condition on your workers, make sure you explain it fully to them. It's easier to accept something you don't like being imposed on you if you understand it, even though you don't agree with the reasoning.

Another really tricky fine line is, having done this a couple of times, to then stop people going "meh, screw it" when they really can control the outcome, but just don't feel like it for whatever reason.
It sounded cool. :) Also, elements.

No contest the decline of print media is effecting the paper industry.

It's been a while since I've looked (or cared). I've long assumed growth in pulp tracked with the economy. I didn't consider increased recycling or the economic crash (2008). Either way, I couldn't quickly find info (e.g. Wolfram Alpha).

We're talking past each other. I really don't care about the fortunes of the timber, pulp, paper industries. They've been terrible stewards of the earth. You say they've improved. Sorry, I just can't imagine that.

It's possible that the "fallow" restored forests of the northeast (mentioned upthread) are the future for elsewhere. Maybe. I don't see it in the short term. Between the pine beetle and ever greater risk of forest fires (in hindsight the bad burn mgmt as well as drying due to climate change), our forests are in trouble. To say nothing of sprawl and over development in fire prone areas...

Any way.

You really need to cut out the ad hominen. You're convinced you're right and I'm a noob. Fine. I feel you're just repeating industry misinformation. Fine. But there's no discourse when you sink to throwing around insults.

Preferably both. Not sharing passwords is the obvious one, but if I stop using something I'd like to be able to delete everything related to me (except perhaps logfiles or whatever else needs to be retained for operational reasons up to a few weeks). And without having to call someone on the phone please or email support@ please.

There is no industry standard for what "managed" means.
On their page they describe some of the services as co-managed.
I suspect in reality "managed" consist of a comprehensive monitoring solution, along with "best effort" support.
They are either going to to provide a support level well bellow customers expectations (not making ANY changes unless they have specific written consent) or they are going to take risks on customers servers which will blow up in their face from time to time.

Apart from the hacking indecent they have a really good brand with a reputation for doing the right thing. They provide infrastructure as a service, the service is clearly defined and they deliver. Unless they are really sharp then a managed service is not going to be clean, It's full of grey areas and trade off's about whether the team gave correct advice or did the right thing. They should have spun this off to a separate company.
I bet there is a lot of low-hanging fruit. What would happen if we just became consistent with the fish oil and n-back stuff?

According to the OP, the compromise happened because of malicious software being placed onto association.drupal.org via a third party app used by that subdomain, and not because of a vulnerability in Drupal itself.

when I first heard of DRM in HTML5, the first thing that came to mind was that web apps would be encrypted, and that the only interface people would have would be mouse or touch. This would essentially make the web like blue-ray: great for consuming content and playing scripted games, and not-so-great for everyone else. Also, how long before "safe" browsers only allowed drm-encrypted web apps, to "protect consumers"?

I agree with the EFF that DRM should not be in HTML5.
If those are the only options I vote for proprietary plugins; those are way easier to block.
I just today talked with friends that work for Samsung and the amount of wasted everything they told me about was staggering. I don't think that there is anything such companies couldn't waste and forget about. This makes the management stubbornness all the more probable and makes trying to save "work-hours" pointless. That's pretty scary shit, but apparently that's how it works in such companies. I don't want to ever work in such an environment.
I think the connotation of "silver bullet" in this post is an extraordinary idea that solves the problem definitively by changing the rules. A lead bullet, by contrast, acknowledges the current field of play and just plays it better. Less glamorous, but still plenty deadly.
To be clear, EME is not really a standard agreed upon across vendors. It's more of a meta-standard. There will be no CDM that works in 90% of browsers, so EME would lead to fragmentation just as bad or worse than what we have today.
So do I. That way will mean that I will probably never be able to use it on my (Linux) laptop, but that's fine, because I don't want to use something with DRM anyway. Torrents work just fine until the movie industry learns what the music industry learned the hard way.
