More to the point, Woz has approved of the way people were portrayed in "Pirates of Silicon Valley", including himself.

"It's funny, but even with all the things that aren't said outright, a great number of people, like yourself, saw a lot of things in that movie that are totally true. The personalities were very accurately portrayed."

"The personalities and incidents are accurate in the sense that they all occured but they are often with the wrong parties (Bill Fernandez, Apple employee #4, was with me and the computer that burned up in 1970) and at the wrong dates (when John Sculley joined, he had to redirect attention from the Apple III, not the Mac, to the Apple ][ ) and places (Homebrew Computer Club was at Stanford Linear Accelerator Center)."

Especially since current land mass will be turned into sea. I was joking, though.
But I suppose they are pushing for this first, because a lot of politicians are old, and fear the phone spying much more than they fear the Internet spying.

That is probably true. And so frightening. Basically, those politicians don't really know how tech works and what the real dangers are. And they're supposed to protect the citizens with their decisions...

Plus, when you get old, you have much less of an incentive to think "long term", obviously. There should probably be some rule that restricts older politicians to a "consulting-only" role.

It is useful for projects where functionality/content is what matters and the only design requirement is "looks sort of professional".

If you have the money and use for a real design, bootstrap is probably not for you. It doesn't really integrates in your own design, it's just a better default.

Funny, the scientific consensus is that on average, on any given year vulcano emissions represent only about 1% of human emissions [1]. I would very much like to know where you got your numbers. It's very likely that you are being misled.

What's with the preaching?

First, quite a few other nations already spy on us and did so long before the NSA put all their cards into the digital basket. They would continue to do so regardless of anything the US did.

Second, your own government is cooperating and probably adding quite a bit more to the mix.

Third, "Americans" have little do with it. I don't condone it and I have no control over it. Many are apathetic, sure, but many more are apathetic in your own country. Most of the outrage in the media and political circles has been in the US. Explain that?

Big O is a upper bound , what I meant was that if a piece of code has O(n) then it also has O(n^2).
With emphasis on the upper bound
f(x) = O(g(x)) if f(x) <= cg(x).

so my point is if f(N) = O(N) then f(N) is also equal to O(N^2)
as f(N) <= CN^2 .

The stereotypes are funny, and startups, by nature, will always be filled with a majority of hustlers, but it may also inadvertently lump an entire group of startup founders -past,present and future- into the "SG pile," whom I think don't belong there.

That being said: i think i've heard this conversation and event had it (sadly, from the SG side in my less-educated days), and I think this conversation is intended to force people to ask themselves "am I a poser or do I want money?" which is a false dichotomy.

I'd rather look at people who want to make money by creating value vs. people who want make money by creating perceived value.
I will look into it, seems promising.

> One thousand years ago there were farms in Greenland. Just two hundred years ago there was Little Ace Age and river Thames would freeze every winter.

One fairly well-supported theory of the cause of the Little Ice Age is that reforestation that due to a decline in Eurasian and American human populations led to an uptake in CO2 absorption [1] [2]. This suggests that at least partially anthropogenic climate change is a phenomenon which existed even before the Industrial Revolution. In any case,

> Single vulcano explosion releases more CO2 than entire mankind in a decade.

No [3]. Moreover, volcanic eruptions tend to have an overall dimming effect due to their release of sulfur-containing compounds which form sulfuric acid aerosol. There have even been some radical/crackpot geoengineering proposals to release sulfur into the atmosphere to combat global warming [4].

But the ocean absorbs a much larger portion of sunlight than the average land. Hence more energy absorbed if there's more ocean. And that leads to more heating.

Maybe something like boreal forests work best.

Personally, I'd say we need to remain aware that we have a leader role on this tiny planet. What we do will always be kind of seen as "the future".

We have much more power than any nation and therefor we have much more responsibility. If we f#ck up, the world's f#cked. It may sound arrogant, but that is the power balance of today as I see it.

We have more power and therefor more potential to do good and to save the planet than any other nation. But recently, we have used it pretty much against that goal...

So I just got sucked into that Killer Sudoku puzzle - and ugh, now I have a burning desire to print it out on a big A2 spread to work on it.

After the first couple of "gimme" squares, the interface is completely worthless for tracking the information you actually need to remember. There's no good way to express "This square is three more than that square, and also can only be one of these possibilities", which makes it a pain to correlate that with similar information about other squares, but at the same time (at least at this, admittedly early stage) it still feels like you can always make another logical step to another piece of information.

I don't even want to look at the others until I've either finished or given up on this one.
Humans produce on the order of 3.10^13 kg of CO2 [1]
Atmosphere weighs 5.1 . 10^18 [2] so the CO2 we produce is 1/100000 (or 0.001%) of the total weight.

Atmosphere contains 0.046% CO2 by weight [3]. So, next year, it's going to be 0.047%. In other words, each year we increase the concentration of CO2 by 2%. This isn't only cow farts.

To all those that think this is no better than a regex:

Yesterday a company invited 7 new users to their account using their email addresses. 3 of those addresses had typos in the domain names which this service would have caught. As it was, this error was only discovered when the service tried to send invitation emails to the new users and that's not a great UX.

Validation emails, particularly those with a confirmation link, are a horrible horrible solution. They interrupt the user's process flow, taking them away from their web browser, possible delaying the process, and you'll also get users searching through their emails and clicking that link just to access their account (yep, really).

I think I'm going to implement something like this Mailgun service plus sending a welcome email (with no confirmation link). If the welcome email bounces then I can handle that case but it should happen less often with the Mailgun live-validation.

The Duo app is really nice. I was really happy to find out you could use it without their (fairly expensive) service; it's essentially a drop-in replacement for the Google Authenticator app. I've still been using both, though.

The thing I dislike most is when sites don't allow you to link your own OATH credential (i.e. a hardware token); I don't consider any of the cellphone apps or services to be as secure as the hardware token, and there are nice ways to use the hardware tokens for role accounts (locking the physical token in a safe, or leaving it in the custody of a third party without direct access to the account, like a CFO). The ideal implementation of OATH/2FA for a site allows users to specify their own, get the QR code, or get a text code.

Coinbase, for instance, only shows the QR code; I can't either use my own hardware token or back up the character string (which I feel I can do safely) to let me re-generate the token. I generally like having >1 device with my OATH credentials for any given account, particularly if the device is needed to change security settings later. It's awesome that they support 2FA, but doing better would be better.

Maybe I'm showing my allegiance to my platform of choice, but the subtle dig on nodejs wasn't warranted on slide 25 (http://talks.golang.org/2013/oscon-dl.slide#25). As everyone's pal `substack` will tell you, use streams! Instead of explicit buffering, handling backpressure, etc., it's as simple as:

readable.pipe(writable);

Additionally the link to `http-proxy` on slide 30 is misleading; 60% of that file is comments, and about 50% of what's left is websocket support, with the rest being header parsing & redirect parsing. The actual proxying bit is very simple and straightforward, and if you don't need every feature `http-proxy` offers you can do it yourself with streams in < 10 lines.

Well in the particular case I wasn't coding Haskell; I was fighting cabal :) I needed to install some GUI lib and that took it's sweet time. But there was no coding involved just messing around with build files and such. Not sure why I didn't use vim for that, I use it for coding anyway.
It's a nice start to something that looks pretty useful. There are some things to consider though:

What if you have headings as the first column in each row? What if you have headings in the first column, and the first row?

Also, what is the use case for data overrides? In my opinion, it completely defeats the purpose when your intention is to take the contents of the table.

Here an easier option for those concerned with privacy of their users.
1) Validate the email address first on your side (using regex).
2) Then send the domain name part to the service for validating and correction. Maybe append a fake username before the @.

So if a user enters someone@yahoo.cm , I validate it first then send someotherperson@yahoo.cm to the the mailgun. Now your real user is protected.

Now you don't send them the real user name but get most of the benefits.
Ultimately all of the cellphone 2FA are at some level "two passwords". If the machine on which you enroll initially is pwned at that time, the attacker sees the seed. It's a little better with physical tokens (where you'd need to compromise the token itself, or do MITM at setup time and persistently after). I believe most of the good iOS TOTP apps use the "keybag" correctly so the seeds don't leave the device when backed up, but it's not perfect. An x509 cert would fundamentally not be any different, and PK-based MFA (which Duo, OneID, and I think some other companies do) isn't that different -- it just requires the verifying application talk to the app directly vs. something you can do as a human.
One of the advantages of having very non-technical customers, is that they could not care less that "OMG, it's stock bootstrap!". They just like that the site looks decent, and it certainly looks better than if I did everything myself.

Having a good enough default means I can spend my time improving the product, rather than worrying about something that neither the customers nor I care much about as long as it's good enough. And stock bootstrap very much is - that's one of the things I love so much about it.

With the flat design stuff, now I'll have to think about it, look for different solutions like themes, or maybe just going for it and hoping it's not a problem, and generally spend time not making our ebook conversions better.

Ultimately, it's not that big a deal, and I'm still way better off than without bootstrap, but I do consider it somewhat of a regression.
And if a security bug did pop up, I'd sure rather bet on Duo, Authy, etc. fixing their app quickly than Google doing so, given that I don't think anyone is actually on the Authenticator team. I'm sure someone within Google would consider it a high priority to fix, but it wouldn't be as easy for them to quickly address something.
So how big is the leap between iOS 6 and 7 exactly in terms of app compatibility? Did they do a major API overhaul and will we have to wait for every developer to port its app but also maintain backwards compatibility?

Microsoft's Bing introduces child abuse search pop-ups
Here's the thing: I don't think Europeans can appreciate how totally and prevasively dysfunctional our inner cities are.[1] Inner city schools are rife with gang activity. Teenagers shoot each other up all the time (usually not directly in the school though, but the fights that lead to shooting often start there). Just last month in Chicago, a woman was shot in the chest while holding a child because a gun fight broke out on an alley by an elementary school.[2] Posting police might not be the best response, but its not baffling. Who the hell would want to teach at some south side Chicago schools without an armed police officer nearby?

And when the suburbanites hear about kids accidentally getting shot in gang hits in parks,[3] they want police in their schools too, never mind that the dangers are far less there.

[1] Chicago is the deadliest major (1m+) city in the U.S., with ~18-20 murders per 100k people per year. But it pales in comparison to small/mid-sized U.S. cities like Wilmington, DE (38 per 100k), New Orleans (53 per 100k), or Flint (65 per 100k). In comparison, London is 1.4 per 100k, Berlin 1.0 per 100k, Toronto 1.7 per 100k, and Paris is a hell-hole at 4.4 per 100k. In the neighborhoods where getting shot is a real threat, the murder rate is far higher than the above numbers per capita.

The list of top 50 world cities by murder rate has U.S. cities like St. Louis hanging among company that is almost entirely cities in Brazil, Mexico, Columbia, Iraq, and South Africa, or Honduras: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_cities_by_murder_rate. Compounding the average rates is the highly segregated nature of violence in American cities. As an aside, this is apparently mostly just a list of battlefields for the drug war. Except Detroit and Mosul, which I think are not so much on major drug trade routes like say Baltimore, but rather are simply parts of failed states...

Teaching programming similar? Doubt, proof, & what it means to do math
I could not agree more with every word you have written here.

I would like to add that scientists are neither averse to change, nor too lazy to learn new tools. However, they typically only care about the solution to their problem, not about programming in general. It is thus futile to try to convince them to use a different tool from a programmers' point of view--you need to convince them by showing them how much simpler they can solve their problems.

We are right now in the process of switching the introductory programming courses at our university from C to Python and I very much hope that we will be able to phase out Matlab as the default choice for the intermediate courses in the coming years.
