We've been using Zhen CRM at my company for a while now:
http://codecanyon.net/item/zhen-crm/4149099

The cool thing about Zhen CRM is that its self-hosted and a one-time fee - so you pay for the software one-time, and download and self-host on your local server (LAMP stack) and off you go! You can create as many users as you want, and you don't have to worry about it being hosted at a third party.

What I find really cool about it is the price - right now its only $25! (used to be even less, the price must have gone up recently) I purchased it to experiment, but found it has enough features to use as a primary CRM.
That's funny. If there is one thing that Python users do more after than diss R - it's steal from R.
First ever comment since signing up.

This is diabolical.

DIABOLICAL!

Good grief. How many times do we have to have this same idiotic conversation?

Wars are not solely fought as a conflict over resources. Capitalism does not solely exist to exploit scarcity.

I could go on. And on. These are -- let's be generous -- oversimplifications used to give people the general gist of things without having to burden them with thousands of hours of study. The problem develops when we start believing our own BS.

Capitalism is trading stuff. I can safely assure you that we're not going to stop trading stuff, no matter what the degree of efficiency in the economy.
Cool. But how does that stuff work? Are there any "typefonts for dummies" materials?
Have a system for the original, which sometimes fails if the board gets crowded. With this one it never fails and the board is mostly always half empty, need the 4096/8192 tiles, too.

Intentional side-effect :) I had to leave it out to keep to the 2048 byte limit.
I would focus on larger, well known established projects covering a variety of interests. For me, personally, I wont get much out of just pushing code or documentation to a project I don't care about. Second to that, is not working with asshole. I'm not sure how I would script that.

OpenMRS was my first true OSS introduction, even though at the time I knew nothing about java. It's in my field of choice, and large enough I got some decent mentorship and appropriate projects. Doesn't hurt that they also regularly participate in GNOME/FOSSOPW, so I knew there would be people interesting and willing to mentor.
ah, i understand now. thanks!
Is it still the same ad played over and over during the same break? Just 8 times now instead of 4?
It seems strange that a muck-oriented site would use that language in a headline, even if it was verbatim from the agency.
I have been trying to find these or something similar for my keyboard project, but I haven't had any luck yet.

I don't know if it's a personal bias after using a Thinkpad keyboard over the years, but I feel like scissors switches don't put as much stress on my hands and require less effort.
Trackpads can't mimic the precision (a dot the size of a pinhead vs a fat thumb). They can't get rid of their terrible z-axis problem (far worse than mice -- and not present in trackballs). They also can't handle inertia well due to lack of feedback (When you use a trackball, you become very adept at flinging the ball and stopping it at the exact position you want).

As to pro-gamers, some of us remember when over half of the pro gamers used nothing but trackballs (in preference to optical or mechanical mice). The short story here is that trackballs didn't keep up with the newer laser technology needed for better resolution, so the pros moved on to mice. There are now some trackballs that use laser technology, but everyone (for better or worse) has moved on.

LVL on grade? How is that not going to rot?

That d-pad design is horrid.
This article is not about Amazon Prime particularly, its about this quote:

They want to lock everyone into everything. Just like everyone else. And we’re all worse off for it.

Thats the core of the problem. Current monetisation models are based on lock in and annoying ads, and no decent alternative models seem to be on the horizon.
There are a few differences with this version:

- The game allows a new tile to spawn even if you move in a direction in which no tiles move.

- Only 2 tiles spawn. I don't think I've ever seen a 4 tile spawn.

- Once you reach 2048, the game continues.

Does anyone know whether these are intentional, or a side effect of the 2048 byte limitation?
3m? You might try a bit more distance. The free space path loss at 1m is only 41dB. If your signal leaves the device at only 10dBm, it arrives at the other device at -31dBm, (let's say antenna gain and loss in the coax cancel), which exceeds IEEE 802.11 maximums.

This is typically how it works in civil rights movements. Some people have to step up and pay the price. Those that denigrate their efforts are part of the problem.

The Value of Veterans in Startups
My company brought on someone this past week to do some technical work. This person is a U.S. Army veteran, former military intelligence, trained as a translator, and graduated magna cum laude from a very respected university, receiving multiple achievement awards for academic performance. However, this person was only able to previously find work as a clerk at a local store because of the stigma associated with PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder).

The moral of this story is that there is an immense pool of talent out there just waiting to be given a chance, but which is being blatantly overlooked by corporate America (and, all too often, startups as well) because of certain stereotypes associated with military service. I personally have been discriminated against because of my background, but was able to find my way to success because of a couple people out there who took a chance on an ambitious but inexperienced vet. I utilize on a daily basis the leadership, critical thinking, and strategic planning skills gained from my military background, and so will others.

It shouldn't be so hard for veterans to prove their worth by constantly battling ill-informed stereotypes after returning home. I challenge and encourage all startups to prove wrong these negative perceptions of military service by finding and hiring people like the one I have described and give them a chance to prove their worth. You will be rewarded with a team of immensely talented, innovative, creative, and driven folks whose potential has been generally underestimated by other companies. That right there is the best definition of a "competitive advantage" I can think of.

This approach has served us incredibly well, and given us some of our most loyal and productive employees to date.

The cool thing about Ansible is that there's no set up. You install it, write the config and run "ansible-playbook <config>". It connects to the nodes using SSH and runs without having to be installed in them.

As for not being as flexible as shell scripts, I'd say that's technically impossible, since it has a command for running shell scripts :) Personally, I never had to use it, but it's there.
Yes, they're both quick and incremental, but there are some easily spotted differences. Here's a few:

Here's What The Richest Man In The World Thinks About Snowden
I don't think they will get into "delivery business". Most likely they will use their own delivery for last mile in the high density areas, but will not make it available as service to competition and will keep it as competitive advantage.

I, for one, is happy Prime customer. We got it accidentally with some promotion and renewing ever since, I couldn't justify getting it, turns out it totally worth it because of convenience.

My only complaint is inconvenience with deliveries over weekend. Quite often I need something on weekend and right now I have to order it by Wednesday night to get it (to be fair, recently they started to do some deliveries on Saturday). It's very frustrating when I recall something I need to use on the weekend on Friday and there is no way to get it on Sunday. Jeff Bezos, solve last mile and deliver 7 days a week already!

There's some fallacious reasoning in this article that is the economic equivalent of believing we've broken the laws of thermodynamics. Marginal costs aren't being magically erased. They're simply being shifted from one party to another, or sometimes diffused from one party to a handful of others. Column A shrinks, but Columns B, C, and D grow to account for the shrink in A. As consumers, we're often so far removed from B, C, D,…,N that we perceive the marginal costs to have disappeared into the ether. But the costs are still conserved within the total system, in one form or another, borne out by one party or more.

And so it will be for the "internet of things." Someone's got to make all those things. Someone's got to lease and operate the EM spectrum. Someone's got to build, own, and operate the pipes. That infrastructure is pretty freaking far from cost-free. And it's going to get massively more expensive as we place exponentially larger demands on it.

Net productivity and net value are being created, and so in total, the system is growing. We're getting a lot better at generating systemic upside. Economics is not zero-sum and mercantilist, the way it was hundreds of years ago. But so long as there are scarce resources, someone's got to pay for them. That someone is going to charge someone else for converting the input resources into higher-value output. TANSTAAFL still applies. It's just getting harder for us to understand who's eating the lunch, and who's picking up the tab.

It's not weird at all - the courts in the US are an adversarial system. You have defense attorneys making claims that courts later reject, or counsel in civil cases making claims that a judge later decides the merits of. Lawyers get paid, and are legally bound, to faithfully represent the interests of their clients, so they make the best argument they can towards that goal.
But this is a really irrelevant point, as you can't even represent an array of size n without log n space (for the start pointer and the size/end pointer). So, every algorithm involving arrays needs at least log n space, if nothing else for the input arguments.
The places I've worked at have generally viewed military service as a positive in hiring decisions - it indicates discipline, focus, and an ability to stretch yourself. The problem is that the hiring market is pretty competitive anyway, and so if all you bring to the table is being a veteran, that doesn't qualify you for a job. Folks who can demonstrate useful skills in addition to their military service usually do just fine; it's just that the "useful skills" part trumps the military service.
If you take it for granted that the pretext of the question is an analogy of the creation of the universe, and the consequence of the ability is the knowledge of all that occurs, then that isn't how omniscience was explained to me because a key aspect of Catholicism is free will, and that would allow God to sort out the sinners without running the "experiment", viz. the universe.

I have to mention that this is only according to my meagre and disinterested understanding.

Reading this makes me wonder whether there would be value in a dating site including and displaying information about account activity.

If, when looking at a profile, you had a sense of how many others had responded to it, and whether that person replied to many of them, you'd know better who to bother with.
This may not be as sexy/novel as the previous design, but it looks supremely more functional. I'm glad to see them using empirical results from testing rather than trying to push some grand vision on the hapless gamers.
On Windows Firefox "Vestibulum" is kerned the same between the fonts. Brick is a bit heavier and they both user subpixel rendering.

On Chrome, Brick kerns "Vestibulum" better. Brick is the same weight as Google. But Brick does not use subpixel rendering while Google does.

On both browsers there was no difference in the kerning of "Lorem".
I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that there's no way this is a passive house. No data (temps or energy consumption) and a concept (lots of insulation and nothing else) that's been tried many times and always fails.
Compression is closely related to intelligence. In order to compress something you have to understand the pattern behind it. The better you can learn the pattern, the better you can compress.

No. I am not saying anything like that trivial straw man which is intentionally uninteresting because you wrote it that way.

I'm saying that a short term reduction in performance was necessary in order for Apple to obtain the control they need to make maps better in future rather than being hamstrung by this key service being owned by a competitor.
Neat, I just interviewed for Google for the SRE position as well. This described my experience very closely.

> I found it amazing that for each of the interviews I was given enough information in advance to actually be able to prepare myself.

I had the same thought. To me, Google seemed 100% concerned with evaluating engineering skills and they wanted to do the opposite of hitting my weak points or quizzing me on trivia. I got a pretty good amount of detail on what to expect, loads of links, book recommendations, practice exercises, and even a video SRE interview coaching session by a couple SREs (all of which I combed through, yes, I even bought two of the books). Personally, it was a great interview experience.

I also interviewed with another large software-oriented tech company, but Google put more effort into providing preparatory material.

> So the fourth interview (1:30 PM) on that day was the large systems design interview. Unfortunately, I was a blockhead on this one, then got nervous more and more and thus failed it.

It's also the area I felt the weakest in. It was the hardest to prepare for and they gave the least amount of prep material.

(Disclaimer: I start with them in 3 weeks.)
This is nothing but a pure button masher... just hit the keys real fast. Use a strategy of "shaking" e.g. hit left,right quickly in succession a bunch of times to fill the board followed by a "circle" e.g. up left down right a bunch of times. I really don't like hating on a HN submission, but either this game is very lame or I am missing the point entirely. :P
There is a phone number you can call that gives the current time of day.

Everybody can call it and they all get the same answer.

"At the tone, the time will be 5:26"

The NIST random beacon is just like the time phone number.

Imagine if somebody said, "I don't trust the time number." How do you argue with that level of tin-foil-hat? Tell him to call them 20 times, in case one time it was controlled by a person with keys to the internet.

As far as I know, all reverse compatibility at initial release that any console has ever had is by virtue of either the new console being "just" the old console with some more hardware bolted on and higher clock speeds, allowing the new hardware to be the old hardware just by turning the new features off and slowing the clock, or by simply physically including the entire previous console in the new one. I don't know of anything that ever did it by emulation. Maybe something back in the first couple of generations. I post this partially so someone will correct me, because I'm interested in the correction.

Are you interviewing for the system engineer or software engineer on the SRE team? The 2nd phone interview covering three types of tasks seems unexpected to me. I am also preparing for SRE interview and I now feel chicken out... I'm interviewing for SE on SRE. I have been expecting just algorithm/codeval type of questions until onsite.
I'm not shocked that imtoo.sexy exists to be honest.
Yep. Also the tiles sometimes initially appear well off from where they actually are, which is an additional disorientation.

Yeah, just played, and it stops after the "GG" alert.
Um, no. What happened was that "hacker culture" lost. If it was hackers that had "expanded" the old concepts would still be alive.
It was no coincidence that I picked those two vehicles. :) Although I was more thinking the new model years since both are currently being produced.
I gave up on this list of "free" fonts after the first four were:

* Non-commercial use only

* Not able to be shared

* Actually costs money

* No-derivatives, which would seem to prevent actually using the font at all.

Weren't you "inviting" attacks with your previous comment? And wouldn't a blog post be just as problematic? I don't want to get you in trouble. But you want to talk about this (whatever it is) but you also don't want to talk about it.

Does anyone know if this process holds true for the Sysadmin SRE side?
For me, Amazon has a truly piss-poor UI... They don't allow video on non-kindle Android devices, and it's really painful in general.. They don't, or at least last I tried, didn't bundle their TV series together, you have to muddle through looking for season 1, then again for season 2.

I honestly don't use either much... I pay for both, as well as cable, but I honestly find it easier to download/watch what I want than to deal with any of them. I keep saying, I'd pay $100/month for an online service that lets be watch what shows I want, when I want without commercials. Hulu, Netflix, Amazon, etc just don't cut it for me. And the new DVR system from my cable co is the worst of all.
You should try again your queries :) We added support of phrases queries (using the "" syntax) and not (using the - syntax).
Btw, as we always said we are more than open to feedback and feature requests & pull requests.
Do you have the link for that? I'm curious and couldn't find it with a quick search.
I'm surprised to hear this too, in the last year or so we've found much more to watch on Prime than on Netflix. Admittedly a lot of that is kid's shows...
I used to recruit for Google SRE, I can confirm that this is pretty much exactly the process and that bombing a single interview will often be a death sentence.
