If you happened to have mastered screen, all the more power to you. I know there can be a lot of power in screens rc and scripting.

Tmux was easier for me to understand and the default packages are much easier than patched screen.

Also, there seems to be a steady stream of features released for tmux. I've heard screen can be quite stagnant.
...but let me give you a real world example:

- You're out on the street and want to find the local Target

- You do a google search which takes you to the Target website

- Now you're looking at a page that lists 25+ stores on a giant laundry list

- You zoom in and now have the scroll through tons of text which all looks alike while people hustle by you on a busy sidewalk

- You now find the listing but it's on a long line of text which you have to swipe to see the entire address

This is a case where having a single page that you don't have zoom in on would make a major difference to the user.
Any ideas where the data is that showed this move was positive? Is all the browser usage data open?

With the Bible app, I was surprised too when it showed up -- but the app has over 30 million users. It's quite bigger than a lot of funded social networks, it is just a matter of monetizing or engaging the users properly. Religion is a big market!
I can see your point, pretty valid. I guess I prefer control over magic. I can produce a complex SQL SELECT, use functions/joins/views, and populate either full entities with it or just teeny tiny DTOs, e.g. if I just need customer name and account number I can easily populate a CustomerStuffDto with two values from a surgical, precise, fast query. Spring manages all the datasource and transaction stuff and wiring everything together, and it's easily JUnit tested (this is an "integration test" rather than "unit test" I am told, but it works !)

Pretty sure ibatis helps you avoid the counting ? chars by naming params in a #param1# syntax, might be mis-recalling though.
Knowing what's needed and knowing what customers will actually buy is two different things...

I don't - I use ctrl-s instead. Similar position so just as easy to hit, but it seems to clash with fewer important terminal keystrokes as it has been historically used for flow control in the terminal driver. Here's the relevant bit for .tmuxrc:

unbind C-b
set -g prefix C-s
bind s send-prefix
bind C-s if '! tmux last-pane' last-window

Really? Happy to be only threatened by LEGO then. Postive side effect, I'm also driving on the right side of the road! ;-)

EDIT: this has to change now, too, right?
6 years at a specific career is the new midlife crisis. A career change sounds drastic. I'd give some deep thought to what you actually enjoy about your profession and go after it. I went through the same thing a few years back and decided I absolutely cannot do onsite permanent full time jobs anymore. I absolutely die. I thought about a career change but ended up just quitting my FT gig, starting a couple small businesses and making a go of it on my own. I've never felt more fulfilled. I love programming more then I ever have and I don't see this burning out anytime soon, however if it does. I can always go back.
Summer Olympics 2016 are held in Rio De Janeiro. Glio might consider planning some sort of strategy around that. http://www.olympic.org/rio-2016-summer-olympics
I don't like to think about type checking as unit tests because they approach the problem from a fundamentally different direction, and I worry conflating them could lead to writing the sort of bad unit tests people are talking about here.

Type checking, or static analysis in general, checks for the presence of a particular class of errors.

Unit tests check for correct behaviour, and in doing so imply a lack of any errors, types or otherwise.

While it can be good to use unit tests to check for regressions in a specific error, the core of your tests should be specifying the behaviour of your system, not trying to catch out any specific class of errors.

If your tests are busy looking for specific errors, there will always be some that you miss (type checking, even in Haskell, misses a lot of classes of error). If your tests check for correct behaviour, there can be no errors.

Of course, writing tests with perfect coverage and specifying all the behaviour is impossible, even more so when you've got actual features to get out the door. So any static analysis you're comfortable with can be great for making up some of the slack, but let's not pretend that in most cases we shouldn't now need to be writing those tests to check it does what it's meant to.

The place where this approach sometimes falls short is on the public API boundary, as I mentioned in my other post. Types can be useful there, so maybe my original assertion was a little too strong, but still types should very rarely mean less tests.

(Apologies if the post is a bit all over the place, redrafting on a phone is hard)
I didn't even have computer at that age. #thirdworldproblems
Has anyone ever tried something like this? Seems like an interesting way to get a good domain for an early stage venture (pay a high but not crazy monthly with an option to buy in a year).

However, this seems to have few "brand" domains and lots of autoaccidentlawyer.com type stuff. That coupled with the fact that the guy who built it tries to hide his involvement with the site makes me think twice about using it.
Just because marketing lets people know about a product's advantages doesn't mean every improvement can be labelled as marketing.

And it certainly doesn't make a product whose only improvement is marketing something worthy of equal attention to a product that actually improves some other aspect.
interesting... but why aren't they using glass in front of a mirror to make an hangout instead of using another camera?
All the statistics gleaned from incarceration surveys and law enforcement records cannot indubitably frame a police department for clear racism.

and

Conversely, all the statistics gleaned from incarceration surveys and law enforcement records cannot indubitably absolve a police department of clear racism.

It's just the nature of the beast.

Even if you were to be able to prove it, there will always be concern-trolls who argue,quite convincingly, that preventing police departments from aggressively enforcing the law (even with provisions such as Stop and Frisk in NYC) is in itself an injustice to the poor and vulnerable (many of whom might in fact be of the inflicted race, themselves).

Eg:

Barney Frank argues in favor of more policing of black neighborhoods as not doing so would be a disservice to the law abiding (black) residents who are also themselves victims of crime albeit from gang members who might be black,themselves. So STOP and FRISK is in essence justified, one could imply from Frank's rationale. This from an openly gay and progressive Democrat.

General perception has always been the scale used to judge whether a party is at the receiving end of overt or covert racism.

Statistics have always been a sideshow. A sweetener, if you will, to seal the argument but not the primary means of smelling that something's awry in the way people are treated.

Whether it is community policing or non-discriminatory housing.

Whether Atherton is the most fitting poster child for the kind of limousine liberalism that I described, is another matter altogether.

I wouldn't be one bit surprised if this happened in any of the most educated and virulently liberal nooks of the country.

The fact is it does exist and yes it is a thing.

It has been called the "Oh, don't give me any of that racist crap! My Husband and I gave money to Colin Powell!" strain of racism.

To remove the last remnants of niggling doubt from those who genuinely suspect that such a pattern of behavior actually exists

Newer versions of tmux have an expand pane command mapped to Leader-z. It will grow the pane to full size, do your xopying then leader-z to toggle back to your normal split view.
Personally I've set - for as long as I recall - the javascript options in the submenu all off. I don't see why a page should be able to move windows or change default menus. I'm assuming these options are being removed from the GUI too. What are the defaults (they're not mentioned on the OP's page).

NoScript doesn't appear to have these fine tuning options?
I said this before, but here goes again: never read a forbes article on bitcoin. They made it loud and clear they're afraid of bitcoin.

What would you expect from a media "company" run by people afraid of bitcoin ?
I would second the AngularJS recommendation. As to the original question I should think that very much depends on what you mean by "future".

Certainly in the foreseeable future Javascript provides almost the only practical method of delivering complex front-end applications. As a result of this, it's star has risen and plethora of great tools follow in its wake (AngularJS, Ember, Backbone etc...).

However we obviously have no concept of what form the web may commonly take on a larger timescale (unless you're a futurologist - but they seem to get it wrong as a pastime). My best bet is that in the more distant future Javascript (in whatever form it may take at the time) will be in use, but such use will be abstracted beyond the purview of many developers.
The 1st question for me is still this one:

Why on earth should I not eat natural and unprocessed foods?

It seems to me that this is what our bodies are trained to process. Why change that?

Marquee caused a whole bunch of CSS errors in a website I delivered. Client found out you could run code via onscroll, and the CMS I used (DNN) didn't filter it out. Ugh!
No problem.

Just an idea or two, btw. Glio could make a video, like the 'about' page one, for each city, showing people interacting with the city you're rolling out in. With 4G being installed, at least in the World Cup cities, it will be a boon for your service.

Another suggestion, in case it's not already a feature of Glio, is to implement ReclameAqui's company response ability (Resposta da Empresa/Reclamações Atendidas), at least privately so a company can respond to negative reviews and invite the user to come again to try them out and perhaps change their mind/review.
Bitcoin allows wonderful tax-complience.

Imagine if government requires merchants to register their addresses with IRS. Now all the amounts can be traced and taxes calculated perfectly. Employers will also have to register addresses of the employees where the wages are paid. Now you'll have "white coins" that can be sent from one registered address to another without questions asked and "black coins" that exist outside the eyes of IRS. Obviously, it'll be hard+expensive to transfer black coins to white addresses and vice versa. Sounds very creepy, but there could be a nice outcome: government couldn't print money out of thin air and fund wars, DEA, NSA etc via "budget deficit", "bonds" and other names for never-to-be-paid debts.

Pantograph: HTML5 Canvas Drawing in Python (via Tornado)
Many, many years ago, when words printed on dead trees were not only for hipsters, I used to work for a computer magazine (the printed kind).

Our editor-in-chief was this old-school guy in his fifties, with quite a few years of journalistic experience and with a ferocious attention to details and exigence. When he was brought in, the first thing he did was mail us a list of things that were unacceptable and would promptly result in ending collaboration if they were repeated.

I kept it for future reference, and this article meets about one third of the points there, including:

1. Not talking about anything that happened, but instead talking about a lot of things that could happen. Go write for a SF magazine if you want that.

2. Mention every possible debate on the subject, without attempting to either offer a conclusion or a new set of arguments for any of them. People who do that after they're twenty were too busy being teacher's pets in college to get drunk, smoke weed and rant. Go get high or something.

3. Bringing a lot of arguments for something that you do not explicitly mention. If your material is argumentative in nature, state what you are arguing for in the first few phrases, in a coherent form. Don't let people guess what you're arguing for and especially don't imply it in the title. That's for wimps who want to make noise, but are too afraid to clearly express their opinions.

4. Excessive use of terms that are reserved for probability or possibility. It's tempting to write these off as a stylistic device, but they are rarely actually needed; excessive use betrays lack of serious research, of which the author is unconsciously aware, but he is too haughty to admit it. Go check your sources, make a list of things you're sure of and things you aren't sure of, and see #1 for what to do with those that you aren't sure of.

(This is a true gem, there's a whole paragraph of things that may or may not be true, but who knows: "With no banking or government involvement, Bitcoin may be anonymous. It may even be ideal for someone who intentionally tries not to pay tax. That may be a small piece of the Bitcoin payment universe. But for most people who file tax returns and report their income whether or not it shows up on a Form W-2 or 1099, it probably isn’t the tax haven some are suggesting it is.")

5. Lack of a conclusion that either proves or disproves your original argument. If your conclusion is not about your point, you're sticking it in the wrong article and you just screwed up two of them.

This is tabloid material.
I take it that you are unaware of the concept of defense in-depth, because your argument is essentially: well if they can come in the front door, then they can open the garage & steal my car too easy, so putting lock on the doors would make people think their car was secure. To enable a person to lock the car door would be silly because once a person has access to your house, they own everything in it. While no security measure is perfect, and with enough motivation & resources anything can be cracked, making things a bit more difficult with master password locking, etc. will stop casual security breaches: I.e. a boyfriend/girlfriend finds out their SO uses Chrome, so he/she steals their SO’s passwords from Chrome in seconds to later use against them after a break up, or to monitor them, etc. This happened (to a friend of mine BTW) and had Chrome had a master password, the SO would never have been able to do it because most people do not have the resources available to do it, an those people are the most irresponsible with having access.
This thought that by making something less secure, you are in fact helping the user from having a false belief—that they are secure—is an ignorant decision at best because nothing is secure, but things can be more secure. & from I have learned balancing convenience & security usually falls somewhere between. a 5 second to breach to breach security policy (Chrome) is no where near (the standard) 5 seconds to unlock by typing in a master pass with a default 10 minute idle lock.

Basically, you are fighting ignorance with even greater ignorant decisions.

Wow. Because this surprised me so much, I just found out that if you open up a node REPL and type 'hello'.blink() you get '<blink>Hello</blink>' returned. So I guess it's an ES thing and it boggles my mind.

I was trying to find the ES standard where it's specified but I'll settle for this[1] instead. Interestingly enough you have quite a few HTML wrapping functions as part of the spec.

Your browser fills in the "current password" when you try to change your password on amazon.com? How'd you manage that? I have my password saved for amazon, and I don't have to type it to log in, but it doesn't get filled in automatically on the "change password" form (because that'd be stupid).
That article implies that tmux is faster than screen. While it may be the case that it uses fewer resources (which I've not checked), it's exclusively been my experience that tmux is laggy where screen isn't.
I noticed this a while ago. Google is being "evil" here in the sense that it doesn't want to use Apple's security tools (keychain access) and wants to use its own authentication methods.
The correct (apple-canon) behavior is to ask for the password every time a user wants to access her keychain (until the end of the session). This doesn't suit google which has its own security paradigm of sign-in-once-access-until-signout. This is why it creates a copy of your passwords to do whatever it pleases with..
To be fair to the China scenario, Yelp is barely used even in other English speaking countries. And my guess is that the most relevant reviews would be in the native language instead of English. Anyways, I was expecting more usage in Canada and London but reviews are sparse and anecdotally few people actively use it as much I do in the U.S. I suppose one barrier is the need to build a sales team to get businesses onboard to customize their data and promoting the use of Yelp for reviewing their business.
Some of the valuations raise a bit of an eyebrow - e.g. BatteryHD valued at nearly $41M.

* In the case of apps that are native versions of web services (e.g. Flickr, Twitter) it's impossible to separate the value of the app from the service, so is your valuation of the whole service?

* How do you factor in possible future growth, based on potential size of market, current market saturation, and possible revenue streams? It seems like they would be very difficult to automate.

So the valuation of the app-maker is probably more interesting than the value of the app itself. A company that has made one very successful app is more likely to make other successful apps, because of branding and experience.
at first, I took factor 10 for a binary joke :)

Would be useful if you have newsletter for recently added/updates of the day. Consider feedpress.it to read your RSS, it already has the newsletter feature.
This is really cool. The only thing I use gmail web interface for since I moved to mutt and IMAP, is forwarding already sent emails with large attachments to new addresses. They way I have mutt set up is that it downloads the attachment first and then sends it once per recipient. The web interface just sends it, so I wonder is there a way to duplicate that functionality with mutt or with a library like this.
Yeah, please add some RSS feeds!
Probably it's just to expensive to defend from litigation on the user generated content business when it's about reviews for other business... i'm taking that out of my butt as i have no idea. but i sure as hell was infuriated when i couldn't use yelp to check places not protected by the NSA.

now i use foursquare in the US, even though the reviews are less abundant, the paid reviews (just read _any_ mechanic review in yelp!) are almost nowhere to be found.

yelp is just blind trying to monetize US and digging it's grave.
Wow they even copied the same white stars on orange squares/red squares used on Yelp. And use a red header. Seriously?
