For some reason when I try this in iTerm2, it jumps to a different command in my history. No idea what's going on there...
I disagree--the problems mentioned were specifically cabs, not cars.
The only problem it really solves is if you've got non-relative paths in your HTML/CSS. I've used this a couple of times in those situations.
C-a : beginning line, C-e end line, alt+f forward word (unless system shortcut for file menu), alt+b back word, C-k kill line, C-b back char, C-f forward char.

At least in my current setup, C-w yank and C-y paste works as well.

Immensely helpful. Sometimes at+left/right does forward/ back word depending on the terminal emu.

Note most of these keystrokes are valid in nano as well.
>On the other hand, China can do pretty much whatever it wants

I'm a Vietnamese with Nghe An root, so pardon me if I'm a little surprised at this statement.

Has the world learn nothing from history? This is not my question, this is a question that was asked countless times by politicians and scholars during the Vietnam/American War.

China had tried to invade/colonize Vietnam for over 1000 years, and each time, they went home in shame. Mongolians, Manchurians were able to take over the entire China, yet weren't able to completely dominate or wipe the Vietnamese people out. Vietnam is a VERY small country comparing to China and I think wars aren't always decided by military strength.

Unfortunately, like many other smaller countries, Vietnam doesn't have a China problem, it currently has a Vietnam problem. China keeps pushing and the smaller countries are going to realize that they can't fight a bully by themselves. For Vietnam, China keeps pushing, it will expose the Sino-friendly elements of the Vietnamese government and will escalate a change in government power.

So perhaps "China can do pretty much whatever it wants"... for a short time. Because if the water is under so much pressure, it will break the dam.
Anyone knows of a similar tool for jpeg images?
You can override any key combination using the Keyboard preferences.

Just make a new shortcut under the All Applications group named exactly the same as the one you want to replace.

International shipping would shut down

As a general rule of thumb, that's not true. From time to time I work with merchant shipping, particularly in times and areas of serious risk (such as warzones) and they don't stop. They happily traversed the straits of Hormuz while missiles were being fired across it. They kept serving Libya during the civil war, with shipping companies literally calling ahead to check which port to head for. They won't stop unless someone starts attacking them specifically, and even then they'll just be going around. China doesn't have the global reach to threaten shipping beyond what is, on the global scale, a small range, and threatening the shipping in their own waters would harm them more than anyone else.

> I'm all for making Computer Science education more accessible, but this code.org initiative and its "coding is easy!" and "everyone should learn to code!" and "you only need basic addition and subtraction" BS is really insulting to people who've actually put in the difficult effort and long hours of study and practice it takes to become a professional: http://norvig.com/21-days.html

Several of my friends work in IT, and pull in decent salaries. I don't think any one of them has been writing code on a continual basis for ten years. In the UK the MCITP course costs about £1500 - £2000, takes about a year to complete and you can land a decent job with it. The main reason I don't have an MCITP is because I can't afford one, I need to get a job to pull in the necessary funds. I can't get a job because I'm overqualified for a lot of them, or I can't afford the courses if I'm underqualified.

If I ask a question about computing, I often get the response: "Visit this website". If someone asks me a question about computing and I can sort of answer it, I will try and explain it to the best of my ability.

It was only around two years ago I was able to get my own computer. I had been trying to get one for around 5 - 6 years, but couldn't due to lack of funds. Meanwhile someone at the job centre says I should stick to what I am capable of. Said someone believes I am barely capable of even filling out an agreement form, so it is completed for me without my permission. I noticed around six or seven spelling and grammatical errors.

Oh, did I mention that on the rare occasion I do manage to get a full time minimum wage job, it is often accompanied with abusive behaviour. By abusive behaviour I mean being shouted and sworn at (phrases include "fuck off", "you fucking idiot", "cunting", "that kid is fucking thick as two short planks", "stay out of my way or I'll fucking throw it at ya", "you trying to do my fucking job?").

I'm sorry, but I don't see what is particularly insulting about "code.org", I didn't notice swearing or abusive/threatening comments on the site. Perhaps my standards are different to yours.

> I do think competition is a healthy and necessary trait for individual development.

There you have it. I tend to disagree. I see this as one of humanities problems. These unquestioned ideologies.

I believe, that competition should only be with one self. I try to get better. Better then yesterday, last week, last year, last try. But I do not try, to rise above my pears in comparison to them. To feel better, by looking at everybody I leave behind from above.

The only one I try to beat am I. I try to do everything, to be a better person, every single day. I am still learning - and will hopefully do that for the rest of my days. I am human, I am fallible.

But my past performance is my personal yardstick. Not your performance, or anybody's. I do not need your example, as a motivation.

Storage on this scale is almost never done with batteries. Today its done with pumping water up to a reservoir while we have power and then letting it flow back down through generators when we don't have power. This is know as "Pumped Storage." Current best efficiencies are around 75% (you get out 75% of the energy you put in). The problem is that there are only so many places on earth where you can build these dual reservoirs on the scale required because of geography. Good discussion on this: http://www.withouthotair.com/c26/page_189.shtml
Being "well regarded" doesn't pay rent. As a technologist in academia, my largest complaint is that the money is maybe 40% of industry rate.

Sure, if you're good, you get some kind of respect, but respect sans doctorate still won't let you join the "academic" caste as far as the PhDs who tell you what to do are concerned. If you're good, you're considered to be akin to an especially fast and vigorous race horse, not a skilled jockey.
They are images being pushed into a canvas element and then they are stepping through them as you fake scroll. Fake scroll, meaning they take over scrolling duties from the browser. Other elements such as the text are layered on top of the canvas and then are parallaxed into/out of view as you scroll.

It's quite a simple and elegant way to do it, other than the incredibly large number of images required to pull it off. You are essentially watching a video frame-by-frame.

As for the smoothness of it, your mileage may vary based on various things to do with your personal setup.

For me it is not smooth on Firefox. It's choppy but still presentable. The experience is much better in Chrome on my Mac.
They are more likely to simply push their own apps more and more into chrome apps and focus a disproportionate amount of effort into Chrome on Android.

How to get a jump start on your programming career
Taxis are regulated in most countries, typically in exchange for a fee and following a set of regulation they'll get the exclusive right to pick up people on the street.

The precise regulations vary but generally the type of things they include are:

* Criminal background check
* Level of city knowledge
* State of car
* Prohibited to refuse to pick someone up
* Prohibited to refuse short journeys
* Regulated pricing
* Rules on detours
While there's a healthy debate in the US (and to a lesser extent in Europe perhaps) about the extent of spying being done by governments, I see hardly any concern in India among both media organizations (with probably the exception of The Hindu newspaper), businesses and citizens.

Fed by the constant drip-drip of "free" features, people are almost blind to the true "cost" they're paying. I've tried my best to convince people I know to adopt even simple (not foolproof, which probably nothing is) countermeasures like VPNs or HTTPS-Everywhere...but nobody gives a damn.

> To me it's obvious that Google will ditch Android some day

To me it isn't. Like pedalpete has already stated, it is the largest mobile operating system in the world. It is literally impossible for them to ditch Android, as their board/shareholders would freak the hell out.

You are on the right track with licensing though. However, they are going about it a different way, by slowly adding closed source components to Android. I won't get into a philosophical discussion (I'm an Android user, and also an open-source advocate) but there have been quite a few articles like this[1] one explaining the situation. How far they intend to go with this restructuring, I don't know.

What is the topic? If you're interested in seeing the current state of the languages involved then I think a quick online search will find you all you want.

If the topic is other experiments like this one, then I don't know. I think the idea is fundamentally flawed. There are just too many variables involved. A good litmus test is to ask yourself if you'd be able to independently reproduce the results of the experiment.
Is there an alternative that provides the same functionality?
Yes, I heard that the same thing happened to a driver from "Chauffeur Privé" at the Orly airport. Wind mirror broken, nothing serious, but it's crazy how the taxi drivers do not care about the situation and want to keep their monopoly. The French company "Taxis G7" is a powerful lobby and they still decide everything for every taxi driver in France. Instead of changing, ugprading, offering new (and better !) service to their passengers, they try to scare the new comers. And seriously, it would not be difficult to improve the service in French cabs : remove the bad smell, remove the racist jokes, shutdown the loud radio talking about the latest soccer game which not everyone listens to, learn to say hello/thank you/goodbye, etc.
Or, it could just be different pages of content and the back button actually works in every instance and the scrolling position is automatically (and accurately) preserved by the browser. As opposed to infinite scroll with updating URLs that inserts 10 different items in your browser history, breaking proper back button functionality to fit the view of what a designer thinks are all the pages you visited while you, as a user, just scrolled a single page and think the back button should take you back to the site you just came from.
I'm curious why the images have artefacts (or pre-loading fuzz)? A year or so ago Andreas Gysin did something very similar http://ertdfgcvb.ch/p2/sm/play/protog3 and for some reason does not have the artefact issue. (code for that here http://ertdfgcvb.com/sequencer/)
There are important, valuable problems that simply aren't visible to the inexperienced kids that the current model wants working on startups. My own idea for a startup was the result of two decades of experience in the software industry and many years of seeing specific pain for myself and across the industry. I wouldn't have thought of it back in '94 when I was starting my career. And by the time I could see the problem (much less see a solution), I pretty much had the kids and the mortgage.

"The 'quality' of the code really comes down to deadlines".
It has to do with international expansion. If you google for family trust vs general trust or similar you'll just get clouds of financial advertisements for financial/legal trusts.

Some societies are familial trust oriented, some general trust/rule of law. USA is pretty high in general trust so something designed to appeal to familial trust cultures is going to look weird. We pick our tax accountant based on location or skill or advertisement, in a familial trust oriented culture you pick an accountant because they are a (possibly very distant) cousin or maybe friend of friend.

Likewise the familial trust oriented cultures probably think the american concept of selecting a business by mere geolocation to be totally bizarre unless its also got a genealogical overlay mode or something.
Perhaps it's simply personal preference, but I do find that limiting my mouse usage has resulted in real, tangible gains. I don't know how feasible that is in GUI-first operating systems like OS X, though.

Just because people can create and publish does not mean they want to.

Prior to the internet, physical media like books, newspapers, and music certainly had a similar distribution. Consuming takes little effort, provides stimulation and enjoyment whether http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random, /r/AdviceAnimals or Rolling Stone magazine.

A study looking at which demographics choose to participate in which communities would interest me. Reading comments on local news websites can be terrifying, but my parents would be more likely than me to participate becoming that "1%". Other communities like Live Journal, Reddit, or deviantART appeal to a different sets of 1%ers.

edit: Stats on views vs upvotes vs comments would be an interesting metric for reddit or HN to publish.
It seems like if anything resembling a normal, competitive market experienced the situation of "too many cabs" it would self correct quickly as the rates for individual drivers would plummet. Sitting in a line of 200 cabs for one paltry fare would not be a viable way to operate a cab.
