These games don't actually use C++ or OpenGL. They use libraries like SpriteKit for iOS. I was able to code a similar game this weekend with very little Objective C experience. Its a lot of fun too!
You're still left with the problem of induction, which is a very real philosophical problem in science (and epistemology).
I emailed the organization responsible for the Local Environmental Observers, and this is the response that I got.

"The authors are speculating or taking and in some cases taking images and quotes from our LEO Network out of context:

· The salmon from Hydaburg (map) has a condition called Henneguya, a parasite that commonly effects salmon in Alaska and other places. For more information see this ADF&G Fact Sheet.

· The white fish from Nuiqsut (map) had a skin condition caused by a mold called Saprolegnia. This was diagnosed from samples analyzed for the State of Alaska Department of Fish and Game Fish Pathology Lab. This can be brought on by environmental stress such as warm temperatures. Given that this is the first time (October 2013) it has been seen in these fish, and that they are river caught, we do not see radiation as a likely cause.

· The cause of the hair loss and lesions in seals and walrus (map) in Alaska continues to be a mystery. Fallout from Fukushima has been listed among many possible causes or contributing factors. For more information on the unusual mortality event for these animals, see this link.

Adioso (http://www.adioso.com) seems quite good in that regard. I've had contact with one of the developers from submitting a bug report and they're very friendly and seem on the ball.
This is really great. UI animation really makes or breaks an app's polish on iOS 7 (no data on developing for Android, but I suspect it's the same), so this sort of inspiration is incredibly helpful.
Alan Kay suggested we have these problems because computer science is more like pop culture than science. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FvmTSpJU-Xc
That frankly sucks man. I view my computer as an extension of myself and not something my employer dictates. I have put SSDs, memory and extra monitors in all employer supplied equipment (and removed them when I left). If that isn't possible, I just use my own laptop / machines. As a scientist, your condition probably won't change on its own, you will always be 4 years behind, which is on the painful end of the curve for using current generation software.

If you can't upgrade your machines, then yes, downgrade your software so it runs at a reasonable speed. There has been a trend, and this is an extreme example, of people using DOS software like wordperfect and turbo c++ in an emulator on modern hardware to get blazingly fast full keyboard navigated apps.

Someone on HN recently commented about how they'd use customer details (people buying games) and check them out on Facebook. I suggested it was a bit creepy. Other people were surprised I thought it was creepy and thought it was normal behaviour.

Out of the ones you listed, Haskell would be the most difficult for sure. For quick prototyping though, like others mentioned, the tools around the language would make a bigger impact than the language itself. So RoR or Django would make a lot of sense. You might also wanna take a look at Meteor (Javascript) for quick prototyping

For those that aren't aware, check out the "/r/tabled" subreddit [1].

From the official description: "a subreddit for tables of recent threads from places such as... /r/IAmA, /r/InternetAMA, /r/AMA, /r/AskReddit, /r/AskScience"

It makes things nice to read.

Of course, Bill Gates' new AMA will not be "tabled" yet, but as an example (and in case you missed it), here is his AMA from February 2013 [2].

My thoughts exactly. I feel there's something interesting there that doesn't quite work. There needs to be a stronger link between re-living life and steadily 'improving', whether this 'improvement' is something alien to us (as mdisraeli suggests), or whether these improvements fit our human view of things.

For example, the story could focus on a subset of 'humanity', some kind of smaller community, and highlight how the protagonist, through inhabiting all people in this community, broadened and deepened his understanding and/or compassion. This subset could be a family, for example, or a set of different 'archetypes' (leader, priest, caretaker, slave, etc.).

What I learnt from optimizing queries on The Blog Bowl (Django)
For discussing whether Python and Ruby are too big compared to Javascript or Haskell, I'd like to give you the following UX anaology.

You're a cashier at a bank and want to give the best experience for your customer, who just withdrew $248.67 from her account. The Python way would be to give this person two hundred dollar bills, two twenty dollar bills, a five dollar bill, a two dollar bill, a one dollar bill, a fifty cent piece, a dime, a nickle, and two pennies. Some one on the messge board will later tell you that the fifty cent piece has been deprecated and that you should have use two quarters. Also, the two dollar bill has performance issues and you should have just used two ones. It's pretty big and maybe not the best for your customer.

The Javascript way is much smaller and simpler. You'd just give the user 24,867 pennies. There's no variation in bills to memorize - just counting. You do get tired of counting after a while and your bank manager tells you a little secret. In the bank, there's premade bags in sizes of a ten thousand pennies, two thousand pennies, one thousand pennies, five hundred pennies, two hundred pennies, twenty-five pennies, ten pennies, and five pennies. So, you give the customer two ten thousand penny bags, two two-thousand penny bags, a five hundred penny bag, a two hundred penny bag, a one dollar bill, fourteen twenty five penny bags, a ten penny bag, a five penny bag, and two loose pennies.

You get tired of hauling all the pennies, so you decided to do things smaller and simpler. You do things the haskell way. You give the customer a two hundred forty-three dollar bill, a negative nine dollar bill, a three dollar bill, and a thirty-three cent piece. You require the customer to sign an oath stating that she won't just throw out the negative nine dollar, but will ensure that it is safely paired with a positive nine-dollar bill when it is returned to the bank for no value. For some reason, the thirty-three cent pieces are all in a drawer labelled "Monoid", and you're told it's because they're closed with the Yen under addition, as long as Japan keeps printing the zero Yen coin.

This isn't meant to be an attack on any of these languages. Any of them would be an excellent choice. The javascript way has a smaller number of denominations to memorize, but you wind up needing to learn a long list of premade baggies, which can make everything suddenly seem big. The Haskell way has a small, optimal set of denominations, but learning to figure out to put them together can make everything seem huge. The Python/Ruby way has more denominations than either, but some people think that they're easier to add up than the Haskell ones and more convenient to carry than the Javascript ones. So knowing which language is the smallest and easiest all depends on what you call small and easy.
setting init=/sbin/systemd in the kernel cmdline is the recommended way, so i guess the 7.5% do count as using systemd.
I actually found that rapid-prototyping works best for me and I was able to deliver fairly good results using it. In fact I am starting a consultancy in month or two that will use rapid prototyping and other best practices I observed as effective.

My goal is to provide environment where clients would feel their input is steering project and they are getting results they want, also that developers and others working on a project would like clear direction and ability to show their best skills. Sounds a lot, I know.

I see this as ultimately being a much better from an optimization standpoint. Now I can change L to a set or a linked list if I find that more efficient without having to change it everywhere. Language features are no substitute for algorithm and data structure knowledge, which your students can likely be forgiven for not knowing about.
KDevelop doesn't use clang, it has its own C++ parser, template engine and so on. It's true however that KDevelop developers are currently investigating clang as a possible replacement of that implementation, so while your statement is wrong now, it might become true later.
Mt Gox is already bleeding to death; it's just in slow motion because the same problems that make people wont to leave make it hard to leave. The over-valuation of BTC at Mt Gox (until recently) is evidence of capital flight through BTC due to their USD withdrawal problems; it's apparently turned around just now since the new BTC restrictions are even worse (and there's some fiat currencies--like the Yen--where you can still get money out.)

Either way, MtGox has been consistently out of line with market price, in a market with plenty of arbitraging, indicating that they have problems and people know it.

I don't know how to get easy numbers on exchange volume over time, but I do know that Mt Gox has fallen from the obvious top exchange to a solid third over the time I've paid attention (maybe half a year.) Why they still have any decent volume, I don't know; inertia, people still cashing out or waiting for Mt Gox to improve, suckers lured by the arbitrage opportunity, perhaps the Japanese domestic market (they're the only Yen exchange). I know I wouldn't touch the place with a 29.5 foot pole.
The article isn't really about that. (I made a similarly pithy comment but have deleted it having read the article.)

I went through a similar experience with a client - purchased targeted ads and got immediate likes. However, those likes turned into an albatross and engagement went through the floor.

And the crux of the problem wasn't that engagement dropped, it was that for this particular client "Likes" were deemed as more valuable than actual engagement. This belief that a Like is the most important conversion Facebook has to offer is something that repeatedly encountered, and one that drives me a little batty.

Facebook, Twitter, and Google are fair examples, but in each case, what makes these things hard is the server components.

Now consider what it would take to build the next Final Cut Pro. You could try to do it as a web app, and you might even get some casual users who don't need much capabilities. But you are not going to displace existing professional tools on any platform.

Being available everywhere just means you're not better anywhere. Java apps discovered this last decade.
And KDevelop has a very complete CMake implementation as well (unsurprisingly, seeing as how the vast majority of KDE projects use CMake and KDE was an early adopter of it).

I'm not sure about Javadoc, but with Doxygen you do not need to put inline documentation immediately next to the code you are documenting. You could put all the documentation at the top of the file and the function declarations at the bottom. This makes it a little harder to maintain the docs while you maintain the code, but it does resolve one of your pain points.

"Or, MtGox themselves see that they’ve been watching for transaction for too long and could automatically re-send another transaction"

There is no amount of time to wait until a bitcoin transaction is considered dead. Once its been communicated over the network, one has to assume it can be redeemed (incorporated into the blockchain) anywhere from never to a thousand years from now. Checking for txid even without malleable transactions is not helpful.

If a bitcoin payment has been issued, and a customer wishes it to be re-issued, the (only?) safe approach is to move the entire address contents to a new address, wait for that to hit the blockchain, and reissue the payment from the new address.

When different customer's balances are mixed in the same address, things get more difficult, and seeing as how its customary to pull balances from multiple addresses to satisfy the inputs a single transaction, I think mtgox has a claim to complexity beyond their ability to fix without help from the protocol itself.

As far as being affected by malleable transactions, an exchange should have a value on their 'books' for each customer and a value in the 'bank'/wallet for each customer. By keeping track of each set of addresses for each customer, like bitcoind does in its wallet, the two can be audited with each new block on the chain.

It takes your slides (PPTX format), and analyses each one a bunch of ways, to spot common pitfalls. For example, it checks the reading age, how busy the slides are, how colourful (or not) your colour palette is. It also checks if you put too much text on each slide.

It's not fool proof, but is surprisingly accurate for various slide-fails :D

The idea behind gender segregated classes/courses is about performance, but rather about social expectations and provided a space with less bias than a mixed gender setting. Whether or not this works is one thing, but this isn't about hampering performance.
I found a way to dramatically improve facebook. Around the beginning of the year I unfollowed every single friend and page, so my newsfeed is completely empty. Now when I want to know what my friends are up to, I go check out their pages, essentially going from a push feed to a pull. It gets me out of the empty crack addiction-esque cycle of going to the news feed and being disappointed/bored with the lives of my friends, and instead lets me focus on what facebook is actually valuable for: party planning.
It's not like KDevelop doesn't have very fully featured auto-completion support right now :).

Its existing C++ smarts are extremely impressive already; the developers are mostly considering libclang to get out of having to maintain their own C++ implementation as time goes on and the language gains more features.

Ask HN: Would you pay money to do a regex on the whole internet?
Sometimes I'd really like to see all the pages that contain a certain regular expression pattern.

Sadly I can't seem to find a service that offers this for a vaguely manageable price.

So I wondered if there's any demand for this.
Do you ever want to do a Google search with regex and equally as important would you pay to have a download of all the pages that matched your regex?

What would you use it for? Would a text only search be enough or would you be likely to want to use it to match HTML code?
Muy-important.js: weekend no-use fun project
The Java UI they use is part of what makes it easy for them to have a cross-platform product that works almost anywhere Java does.

I also find the "never seems to fit into the OS" argument a bit silly as most of the popular IDEs don't really "fit" either. For example, XCode's UI design is all over the place -- it doesn't match a lot of what users expect from OS X. Visual Studio has screaming uppercase menus and odd controls (among other oddities). Eclipse, well, it's never even come close to looking like a native application.

So perhaps the more interesting question I'd ask is what IDE have you used actually feels, looks, and acts like a truly "native" application?

In the end, I care more about a usable application that works on the platforms I use consistently then one that works wildly differently on every platform just so it can "feel native".

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classic_rock

This is the definition that people expect when they hear 'Classic Rock' -

"In the United States, the classic rock format features music ranging generally from the late 1960s to the late 1980s, primarily focusing on hard rock and blues rock popularized in the 1970s"

Also, Nirvana is grunge or Alternative, not Classic Rock.
Notifications maybe. I can't see how this idea works without push notifications. Alternatively, this could be a pure email based company.
Sorry everyone, I clearly dropped the ball on the explanation.

vezzy-fnord explains it well. The concept is that you can build and share executable code as freely as you share videos and pictures. Doing that requires a program architecture which contains the code correctly but can also meet a lot of use-cases. My decision was to use HTTP and treat the Workers like Web services, which makes Ajax a uniform interface to local and remote code. Then, it uses link relations to do discovery and configuration.

It's all very early, but please take it with an open mind as a pretty experimental project, and I'll keep making it clearer (and more complete).
