Plus, the assumption that they're only using their surveillance technologies against foreign powers is now known to (often) be a false assumption. So it's not immediately clear which systems are only being used against foreign powers, so one wouldn't even know what might be held back (if one were to take the position that things only affecting espionage against other nations should be kept quiet).
I have 25 tabs open at the moment (and I've only had this browser open for 3 hours).

I tend to "open in new tab" and queue things for reading.

Because I tend to open lots of new tabs within a short period, it makes identifying the one that is playing sounds very hard. The worst is the "delayed video player" scenario, especially if it is below the fold. It's incredibly annoying and embarrassing to be desperately trying to find where the noise is coming from if it happens in a boring meeting.
I think I wore jeans and a silk and linen shirt solid color Hawaiian style shirt when I interviewed for my current job.

If the weather is cool enough, I wear jeans, a button down shirt and a blazer when interviewing or meeting with a client the first time.

I did interview in gym shorts once but that was more of a formality.

As we've seen, this is a good thing. Especially since people insist on only taking part of a course and saving antibiotics for later, when they might or might not work at all.
Isn't there any voice recognition software able to detect stuttering, tone change (I'm a pro at that), irregular rhythm and the likes ?

That'd be a really interesting challenge to have to keep your speech in a fast paced yet balanced and clutter free fashion.
I specifically mentioned "if they did not learn new techniques".

By learning, I'm referring to reading, go through some of the examples a little bit, but does not necessary practice the tools.

I'm merely agreeing with the parent that there are cases where managers stop reading the tech side and focus solely on the management aspect (risk management vs JS frameworks).

If the manager still hold on the traditional approaches, he/she would insist to have more UI test automation as opposed to spend time and invest more on unit-test.

Right. Stackoverflow is still the best option for dozens of reasons. I love it. But the deletionism is stupid. More than that: it's stupid religion. The people who think it is necessary never provide any evidence for its effectiveness. They claim it influences future questions. Again, I have never seen a single piece of evidence that this is true. It just feels true to them, so it's true. QED.

But due to ads, if many tabs are open then many will have Flash on them. Run Chrome, install my MuteTab extension (http://www.mutetab.com/), open a few tabs, and look at the extension popup to get an idea of how pervasive Flash is. (However, if you also run Adblock then it becomes a little more reasonable, since you've greatly reduced the number of tabs playing with Flash on them.)

Yeah, you could look at which tabs were recently opened when sound started playing. But then once sound is playing, you won't be able to detect if another tab that plays sound was opened. And the sound might have come from a tab that had been open for awhile.
If it's a choice between meat being something only for the wealthy and a prevalence of untreatable bacteriological infections, I'm going to go with the former.

There are various specialist providers; notably, the porn industry has a huge collection of them.
Having worked in a large profit center IT dept at an Ivy League, I know first hand how many bad apps are developed and how many hundreds of millions are frittered away (or in some cases tantamount to stolen). I think working with students to open source and support apps is a way to go. The university concerns are: looking bad, students using an esoteric language, messy programming style or move on. If universities had more open APIs and data like the city of San Franciso, more apps could be developed to make use of the data in novel ways, as opposed to permission-based "culture of 'No.'"

Also this incident makes Yale look really bad... This could end some careers.

In all seriousness, I feel it is only a matter of time before someone dies as a result of their home automation being hacked.
I'm not a founder, but I spent something around 30k last year while living in SF. I have a roommate, don't eat out very often and take advantage of work food options, take transit/walk almost everywhere, and don't purchase much stuff. Unsure of the tax burden at those rates, but I think you'd have over 30k.
To the extent that near-future cellular data connections are good enough for most things, they introduce a lot of additional choice. Instead of just cable, DSL, or satellite, you can also throw three or more cellular networks into competition.

As for wired connections, I see a way to get competitive pricing there too. Neighborhoods and towns should invest in their own last-mile fiber, and then buy transit at competitive rates. They could outsource the operation of the local network, but they would retain ownership of it and can always get competitive bids for another operator.
You are right, the emperor/empress really has no clothes on.
For a lot of people health insurance is something they can't go without, and until recently, were unable to get for one thing or another. I don't know if the ACA changed that.

Do they need it? Probably not. But having it is of value to them - and Google just paid a hefty price to get access to that stream of information. Nest could always sell the "need" as a way for them to optimize their algorithms for maximum energy efficiency or something that the vast majority of its customers wouldn't read nor question - so even though there may be a vocal minority that finds the practice distasteful - I seriously doubt it'd ever be widespread enough concern to hurt sales ... an assumption supported by the apathy with which the NSA revelations have been perceived by the general public.
Do we know the names of these payment providers? I have no doubt the porn industry must have a slew of companies supporting them.
The close reasons are often funny. How many times have you seen a perfectly understandable question closed as "unclear what you're asking?" It's going to be like that until they introduce a, "I don't like this question so I'm taking my ball and going home" close reason, which more closely resembles what's actually happening.

1. If you open source your code, there is always the chance of others 'stealing' it. If this concern is a deal breaker, don't open source it.

2. With a project like yours, this can be a way to catalog how you've grown as a developer.

3. Open sourcing will provide an additional perk for people that might be interested in your project (especially developers).
Speak more often.

Either find an avenue to speak (internally at your company, or at local conferences) or attend a local toastmasters in your area.

My goal last year was to do some public speaking at least once a month. I only managed to speak 5-6 times during the year, but that was a lot better than the year before that. This year I think I will be able to hit the "speak at least once a month in public" goal. Speaking is a skill, and the only way to improve is practice.
I have to admit I was disappointed these seem to require radio transmitters be added to the device. Was sort of hoping to discover there were little antennas built into Intel processors or nvidia video cards.

However, I now know more about what DARPA's littlest flying robots will be doing, especially the ones already described as little more than chips with wings.

Yay. I'm surprised it was ever a thing, really. Maybe not surprised, but pissed off. We've all got our horror stories - I got a PSD with > 200 layers (4 layers for 4 rounded corners on a button - WTF). It was just crazy.
I do a lot of front end development for agencies, but also a good amount for my own projects. I only present mockups to clients, so we are all on the same page.

What I do with the PSDs for my own projects is use Layer Properties to name the color (and if applicable, the font, weight, and pt size). That way, when I go to do the build, I can glance at the layer and get that information quickly.

Many PSD designers group layers, but don't put extra effort into naming layers. Little things like that make a huge difference in time.

It's a pretty much meaningless number without also talking about the antenna used both at the transmit and receive end. Carefully aimed high gain antennas can easily get that sort of range with power in the tens of milliwatt range. I've seen 100mW hobby-grade FPV gear doing 5+km with an omni directional antenna on the transmitter and only a high gain directional antenna at the receive end. With sophisticated enough gear at the recieve end, and an intentionally-aimed high-gain antenna at the transmitter, I'd bet getting 8 miles on single-digit mW of transmit power would be do-able.

(Note that 4Watts of 27Meg CB radio is well known for getting ionospheric "skip" and connecting over literally thousands of miles given the right conditions.)
The only thing that's more disappointing than the NSA spying is the NYT sitting on this scoop for more than a year, and letting Der Spiegel break it. Only slightly less amazing is that Der Spiegel and Jacob Applebaum were talking about this more than two weeks ago, and the NYT diddled until now. Incredible.

Got you. That does help a bit. I do think there is something interesting here. Today I spent time reviewing and commenting on the interface screens of an OpenID implementation currently in development. I wonder if there is some sort of proxy or browser extension you could employ to capture the HTML state of dynamically generated content. For us, this portion of the site never went through a static mockup phase.
In HS geometry, our teacher started showing us basic constructions with compass and ruler: bisecting a line segment, drawing a line perpendicular to another line, and bisecting an angle. Then, at the end of class, he mentioned that no one had ever succeeded in figuring out a method to trisect angles. He did not mention that it had been proven that you couldn't (in the general case).

I spent the entire evening trying to trisect the angle.
That's an odd argument and seems completely circular.

You effectively state that the leaks aren't such a good thing ipso facto, then you go on to say that leaking these details proves it; thus they shouldn't be leaked. Kind of hard to find where that argument begins and ends.

I know where your thinking is going, but you would first have to establish the NSA's trustworthiness to get there. That is exactly what is in question and, importantly, for legitimate reasons.
You'd be wrong. About 2 years ago, Netflix switched to using Level3 as their primary ISP. The peering between Comcast and Level3 became saturated, and Comcast declined to increase bandwidth at the peering point without being paid, and also declined to install netflix's CDN boxes somewhere on their network without being paid. The question of "who pays who" is kinda complicated between ISPs, payments are rather high, and comcast managed to reverse it's position/relationships in that space, because they have a monopoly on the users in their territory. They also hate competition from netflix more than from the others you mention, it's a more complete replacement for their video offerings.

There are two components to anti-biotic use that are taken together very harmful. The first as has been amply described by the author is the flat over use of anti-biotics where they are not needed. The second and perhaps more relevant human example is that humans tend not to finish their full course of anti-botics allowing resistant mutations to gain a greater foot hold. Other than long acting or implanted delivery mechanisms I am not sure that we can ever really ensure compliance with the full regimen in all patients.

There are few problems with the timer code. Vim's code is a monster. As you yourself admit, you don't know the vim code, so how could you possibly judge how demanding the requests are or make any of these other claims.

Be careful about open sourcing art as it allows anyone to basically use your art. You can do a lua style license where they have to mention somewhere that they got code/art from you and link back to your page.

I'd really recommend using separate licenses for "academic" and "commercial" use.

A few thoughts.

I don't know specifically about Glassdoor but review sites in general tend to have either fairly positive or fairly negative reviews. I think partly people with a middling view of the product, service, employer whatever don't care enough to post a review.

In general, I think all or mostly negative reviews is at least a yellow flag.

In my experience, it is difficult, generally impossible, to detect interpersonal problems, flakiness, even extremely negative working environments in a job interview. Sometimes it comes out, but most people can put on a good face for a few hours. This is really both ways; it is also hard to evaluate job candidates as well as employers in a standard job interview process.

One option is "try and buy", where you work for the potential employer on a project for a few weeks to a few months on a contract basis with the understanding that either or both of you many decide not to go further. It appears hard for an employer to hide serious problem for more than a few days. A few days, however, is probably not long enough to detect a serious mismatch.

If it is this Rocket Fuel http://rocketfuel.com/, be especially cautious of AI (or equivalent buzzwords such as "machine learning") companies. AI seems particularly prone to questionable claims, flaky people, wishful thinking and even outright fraud.

If you have not, try to find out exactly what they are hiring you to do and on what time scale. Are they expecting an AI breakthrough in 1 quarter? I have encountered extremely optimistic plans like this; it almost never works out.
I've had streaming issues with both Netflix and Youtube while using Verizon FiOS in the past. I then connected to my University's VPN and instantly enjoyed smooth-as-butter streaming on both sites.

There's a good chance you'll have the same experience with a VPS, depending on what networks the VPS's traffic routes through.

The problem is that traffic from you to Netflix travels through several networks, and at each link between networks it will face varying amounts of congestion depending on the size of that link. There is a link somewhere between $BAD_ISP and Netflix that, due to political/business reasons[0], hasn't been upgraded to accommodate more traffic.

By connecting through a VPN, you may be able to circumvent this as long as the route from you-->VPN-->netflix doesn't travel across the problematic peering point.

Matt, you have two problems here I think you need to fix:

1. Your "trojan horse" name for that packager - has two connotations for me, neither of them good. Why not just call it what it is.

2. Your product name. I really couldn't recommend your product to anyone doing serious work for my company or my clients. The whole "awesome" and "ninja" vocabulary thing is grating, is done to death, I am sick of hearing it. My advice is to pick a better name if you want to attract anything more than tyre kickers.

Pretty sure you put a lot of time an effort into this, don't blow it with stuff like this.
You're absolutely right. I completely didn't think ahead with that project. I've actually had feedback from people who want to use it that I should change the whole project name too. Was just never sure of what exactly to call it.
