I've grown up in Lebanon -- a third world country still recovering from a 15 year civil war(1975-1990). Traffic lights and rules are merely suggestions to people around here. If something is physically possible, like a car being able to fit in an pedestrian-only paved road or two cars being able to fit in a one-way street you can be sure that people will do it. It becomes an innate habit to always check both ways and never assume that a car will stop or slow down or that the driver has even seen you when you're crossing the road. It's not "you might get hit" if you don't, it's "you will get hit" if you don't. It's sad, but it's true.

As an anecdote, there's a road that ends in an entrance/exit to a freeway that I use pretty frequently when driving from my home to Beirut. Two years ago, because the fact that the road was a 2-way road(people could use it to leave the freeway as well as enter it) was causing a lot of traffic they changed it into a 1-way road you could only use to enter the freeway, you had to leave from an exit further down the line. This reduced traffic jams immensely. However, before that could happen they had to go through several iterations on how to enforce this. First, a simple traffic sign was tried, this was largely ignored. Then they placed plastic barriers(those triangular things that can be filled with sand or water). Every night somebody would stop, get out of their car and move them to pass and things went back to how they were before the next day. Now they've closed it off with concrete barriers. It's working, but occasionally, especially at night, somebody will stop after the entrance, then back up into it and then use it as an exit. I once almost rear-ended someone doing that while I was going onto the freeway.

There is a PHENOMENAL amount of money out in Perth. It may be small, but some of the wealthiest in the world (and the world's wealthiest woman) live there.

Largely due to mining, Australia's average wage is around $70k but our median wage is around $45k. Pretty crazy.

It's a similar atmosphere to Texas oil culture (I hear, anyway). Lots of secessionists saying Western Australia is keeping the country afloat. This is somewhat true (but not entirely), and they tend to forget 20 years ago WA was a shitheap with nothing going for it.
I was thinking about something like this a couple of days ago for Kindle books.

Maybe this will trickle down to the oculus? We just got one and Ya the only things missing is pixel density.
But Stallman does not believe that making a phone call is evil. Nor does he believe that choosing to allow yourself to be tracked is evil. He objects to being tracked himself. If someone else has already chosen to be tracked, he might think that they made a poor decision, but it's their decision to make. There's nothing wrong with then asking them to use your phone.

This is nothing like asking someone to kill for you. Killing is always wrong. Trading your freedom for being tracked for the ability to make phone calls on the move is a personal decision. Now, he would probably prefer that people not have to make that decision; that phones ran all free software, with no locked hardware that you can't get access to, so you could control your own phone and determine when it did or didn't broadcast. But that doesn't make it wrong for someone else to make a different decision than he did.
Police using excessive force? Perhaps. Some people are standing against pressurized water and gas shells expecting nothing will happen? Absolutely.

These pictures proves nothing on your assertions "they are trying to kill us" and "civil police looting".
Good luck on your protests.
The primary ISP provider has been slowing down / blocking port 80 / 443 packets going to facebook and twitter hosts. They are gradually blocking social media right now.

SEEKING WORK, remote or shorter on-site gigs. I'm based in Minneapolis.

I like solving hard problems. The point of computers is making life as a human easier, and my favorite thing is taking something complicated and difficult and making it simple, working, intuitive, powerful.

In the past I worked for a Big Finance Company, wrangling Enterprise Java and big databases, making complicated business rules tractable with domain-specific languages, and turning systems into performant and consistent versions of their former selves. I know a few different languages but am best with Java and Clojure.

Well GM foods certainly seem to have a much more substantial body of evidence in support of their safety than thalidomide did. E.g. even since I was a kid seedless grapes have been available here in America, and in fact the history of farming is of farmers forcing evolution along faster to get the genetic modifications that they want to make it easier to grow food. They just didn't know that it was actually genetics they were forcing to be modified.

I think what it comes down to is that the human body is the descendant of billions of years of evolution to help survive the introduction of what could be quite poisonous foods without dying. We have large livers and kidneys for an eminently practical reason, and I simply don't see how a GM food can really be considered in general more hazardous on the balance than the kinds of things our ancestors had to eat because they had no clue if it was harmful or not.
What exactly is the complaint. Is it that AGPL require source for web services while GPL do not, or is it that some development practice is to use production trees as the development tree?

Using a production tree as a development tree has many negative aspects. Student will see any compilation error, development bugs, spelling errors, Lorem Ipsum and other "inside" aspect of development. Having the actually code also available at that time might be inconvenient, but it is easily fixed. Don't develop on the production tree. First develop on a development tree and then once done, push to production.

However, if the complaint is that AGPL require that users get source code... well, that's kind of the point of AGPL. It is the singular reason why it was created. If an universities IT department do not want student to have access to the LMS source code, then they need to decide what they least want to do. Spend money on hireing a developer to produce a similar program, spend money on a proprietary program that may or may not do what they want (minus customization), or accept giving student source code so they might read, learn, and maybe even be artistic and improve on. Three things student are sadly rarely allowed to do in universities.

Why A VC-Funded Startup Isn't A Business
It takes a highly capable mind to do what Brian has done. Recreating even the simplest of logos isn't an easy task when you're talking about positioned DIV's, clipping masks, border colours and radius's all intricately stacked to recreate something that was designed in an image manipulation program.

Yes, you would never use a CSS recreation in production and Brian isn't. What we have here is a smart developer experimenting, thinking outside-of-the-box and pushing the boundaries beyond changing colours and font sizes using CSS. We need developers like Brian trying things like this, if we didn't, we would all still be using tables to create websites...

The reason I called your comment out as negative is because you never said anything positive. Mostly everyone else (including myself) praised Brian for his clever experimentation and there was no praise or respect in your comment whatsoever. I'm not meaning to sound aggressive, I've just seen too many put-downs on neutral and positive submissions lately to not want to say something.

Administrate (http://www.getadministrate.com/) Edinburgh, Scotland. Full Time. Remote work OK after initial "break in" period. We build online software for training companies that helps them run their entire operation.

---------

We're looking for a full time developer from our fantastic offices at the Edinburgh Tech Cube (http://www.techcu.be) with spectacular views of Arthur's seat and the Meadows.

Remote work is fine after a "burn-in" period of a few months (we've got engineers happily working from Spain and Brazil at the moment) but we'd like to get to know you in person first!

Detailed job description can be found on our about page (http://www.getadministrate.com/about), look on the lower right.

We're using a combination of technologies:

- Crufty old PHP (being refactored), and newer PHP (Doctrine)

- All new development is being done with: Python, SQL Alchemy, Flask, and AngularJS using the Bootstrap UI framework

We're looking for smart people that get things done using the above techs, and who want to join a small company, have lots of responsibility, and work in a very challenging environment.

------------

If you're debating sending us your CV, we've hired two top devs from these threads in the last 6 months, and we don't mind hiring people who have never completed university or don't look great "on paper".

We're growing really quickly, have a small team, a challenging product that's mission critical for our clients, and we're located in one of the most beautiful cities in the world with remote workers across the Central Belt of Scotland (and beyond).

If you're outside the EU, we can look into visa sponsorship in very special cases, but this can be a long and difficult process, particularly for the UK. Sorry. Email me if interested, my name is John: jjp@getadministrate.com

Seeking senior-level developers to form the foundation of a new NYC-based development team for an established ad agency

RT+P is a full-service advertising agency that's had great success recently developing large-scale web applications for our clients (Under Armour, Planet Fitness, and others). We're known for our bravado and our aim to always overdeliver on our client's expectations. Right now we're working on establishing a development-centric New York City office. The NY office will focus primarily on long-term "product" projects.

We're seeking one or two experienced Rails and/or JS developers. You'll be working directly with yours truly. We're going to make some seriously killer stuff.

Full-time salary with a great benefits package. You'll be instrumental in creating the office itself - we're starting with a blank slate. Occasional (every couple weeks, if that) travel to HQ in Philadelphia will be required. We are not a start-up, full compensation is not a concern.

This is slightly off-topic, but...

There's plenty of references to physical Infiniband cards being allocated to a guest VM. What I haven't seen though is a hypervisor-level Infiniband vswitch. I wonder if that could help with some of the latency issues; for example, inter-VM memory access could be done via host-level shared memory. Ideally the vswitch could handle inter-host links too, saving the need for manual assignment of cards to VMs.
I gather this is for Booking.com, the company that is famous in the Perl community for treating its developers like dogs.
