Yes, we do support custom escalation times. You can set the amount of time that the Primary on-call has to respond to an alert (after which it is escalated to the secondary). Likewise, you can set the time that the Secondary on-call has to respond to an alert, before it is escalated to the tertiary.

This is configurable under the Settings tab.

I can imagine a video/photo account of someone making the most of this pass going viral.
Maybe at the Federal level the 'vetters' are held to a higher standard, but I remember a local government official (can't remember if it was city or county level) in Michigan getting called to task over a degree that he never actually earned (or even went to the school). He had been on the job a few (3-4?) years when this came out. I can't remember the details of what happened, but some people wanted to overlook the lie because he was actually doing a good job in his position (i.e. he wasn't incompetent, just a liar I guess). It was in the Detroit area, I guess someone could look it up if they were interested for a similar case, though on a local rather than a Federal level.
I've been a long time user at yodlee.com which powers the backend of Mint.com and other account aggregators.
Yodlee gave up on the idea of trying to monetize the customer information they have.
They instead reinvented themselves as the technology provider for all other financial institutions.

I am sure Yodlee.com is a profitable company but I do not think their investors will ever see much return on the 110 million dollars worth of investment since 1999.

If you take away Yodlee powered backend, Mint.com does not have much going on for them other than the subscriber base.
If you have a hard time monetizing from the subscribers you have, It's just going to be a long painful ride for everyone involved.
Cold Brew Labs (based in Palo Alto & NYC) is a 2-person startup building mobile shopping applications.

My closest public library is actually quite noisy, people chatting in normal conversation levels and so on, not hushed at all. I was a little surprised, but the staff clarified that it's a "public library", not an "academic library".

It's funny though: I don't mind a loud cafe. Maybe it's because there are many voices, and it becomes a white-noise/hub-bub. But just one conversation is very distracting. iPod helps, but it's not always enough.

They don't want you taking up seats that you don't use. I think they're expecting their planes to be pretty full during this promotion. If you're not gonna use the seat, they could sell it to a revenue passenger, and earn more. But they can't do that if you're just a no-show.
We're looking for an Android and/or iPhone part-timer or intern (we'll likely offer you a full time job in about 2 months, but we frankly can't afford it right now). It's fine if you don't know ObjectiveC+Java+Clojure+JS+Lisp. (although, ideally, you should know at least one of them).

Technology: We have a fairly complete Common Lisp back end and are developing various front ends (mobile web, full web, iPhone, Android) now. Built on top of a BerkelyDB key/value store (Elephant with some secret sauce). Stateless sessions, almost completely static frontends, novel (and fast+scalable) architecture. A lot of Machine Learning and Natural Language Processing on the back end, and we're toying with the idea of some novel UIs on the front end.

Business:
We can get funded now, but are looking to do a regional launch in Boston (and/or NYC) in September in order to push our valuation up. We are small now (2 business people + 2 technical peoples) but given the founders' pedigrees it's very likely we will be funded with favorable terms when we are ready.

I can't say too much about the company, but email me if you are interested (for what it's worth, I'm not a founder - I'm just in charge of the technical stuff).
I was just thinking the same thing. Though I'm in school during that period, I'm very tempted to buy one of these and travel every weekend for the month. Perhaps spend one weekend seeing how many cities I can get to in just 48 hours.

Edit: except, I just remembered that jetBlue doesn't serve St. Louis (my "base"). Damn!

And also: the number-one complaint about this program is likely to be: "there were never any seats on the routes I wanted". People who book and no-show will unnecessarily multiply these complaints.

JetBlue's pretty cheap already. I don't think I'd want to fly multiple times per week even if it were free.
If you're being pedantic, since New Scientist is a British publication, European roulette would be played which only has a single zero on the wheel, therefore making the odds of hitting Red or Black 18/37 or ~48.65%.

In addition, some online casinos offer games with no house edge - Betfair, for example, allows you to play roulette without a zero. I'm unsure if this is simply a loss-leader or whether it turns a profit indirectly due to gambler's ruin and earnings through additional deposits.

I had to read this sentence ten times before I realized how it can be interpreted any different from the meeting is on Friday.

Absolutely agree. I just asked two random work mates about this and it made their head hurt to try and comprehend why anyone would think the meeting would fall on Monday. I can see from the comments here that some people do indeed think this way, but I've never knowingly met anyone who does and the idea seems completely foreign to me.

I'm using Mosso/Rackspace Cloud for a web design business. I wanted clients to be able to scale up without hitting bottlenecks or affecting other sites on the server.

It isn't perfect, but it has a few huge advantages. The biggest plus is that Rackspace handles all of the auto-scaling, so it is plug and play in that sense. You code it and load it, and if you need more PHP power or more database muscle, the system takes care of it for you. Great for blogs that may hit the front page of Digg (www.techspyer.com is a Wordpress install of mine that's on Mosso hosting and it works for that application).

A 14 year old startup from Melbourne, Australia is hiring:

Attempting to circumvent access control measures could not get you thrown in jail.

If you don't have to worry about getting thrown in jail, I wonder why more people aren't doing it? ;)

Anyway, to answer the OP's question...is there some combination of POST options that loads the entire class schedule at once? I know my school's (U of Alabama) system had a form where you could select all of the course departments and load the entire schedule on one page.

Also, do you really need to reload the data so often? If the IT department is worried about server load, perhaps you could arrange to get a data feed once or twice per day (overnight would probably be best).
Ask HN: What to do with a sleeping project: kudos.to?
well, 2 years ago we had a nice idea for this project. it's sleeping right now, because we just cant find the time to get it going. we already got some logos and more things sorted out, but as usual, time is short and we are to busy with other things. we registered: kudos.to, kd.to, kudosto.com, kudos2.com, credits.to, cr.to, creditsto.com, credits2.com and also twitter accounts.
initial idea was something like a url shortening service, but with some kudos or credits. needless to say that in the meantime urlshortening services are spreading and the need for those url shorteningservices is kind of controversial. apart of the fact that tr.im just quit their service because of a non existing business model. we can think of some other ideas for those domains, but matter of fact we don't have the time or ressouces to get onto something. so, the simple question is: what to do. if someone here on hn has a good idea, we are open for suggestions. i think the domains and the potentials behind are to cool to just sell them for cheap. but of course we are open for offers ;)

Maybe it's just more likely that people in the 18-29 age range will be actually going there to vacation while maybe picking up a part-time job to earn some cash and/or interact with the locals/local culture.

Some also charge for uneaten food, which is a more direct equivalent to the $100 charge.

Intriguing you would find it slower, I guess it is possible that the binaries are built to the baseline Mac architecture requiring some instructions to be emulated via invalid instruction exception on lower instr sets, which may also explain some of your other stability issues.

But looking at your other comments I'm surmising your main contention is that one might just as well get a real Mac (eg Mini). I agree fully with this, imho the price difference is hardly worth the time to deal with all the various issues around install, upgrading etc.

I've also found the Mac mini to be completely adequate; and it still seems to me that even buying an iMac at $1k+ is still a pittance for a toolchain for this type of platform, considering one also gets a general-purpose computer to boot.
Knowing that I can makes me more likely not to, actually. How do I do it if I want to? (Please don't say "Just contact us"!)

I have a six week old and now I can begin to relate. I used to have trouble waking up by 9am. Now I'm up for good at 6am. Friends had told me that in the first month they were getting about four hours of sleep a night. What they didn't tell me (and what I discovered the hard way) was that those four hours were really four discontiguous one-hour periods. Last night my child slept for 6 hours straight. Six hours! I got five hours contiguous out of that, and wow, I felt like a brand new person. I never thought I'd be estatic to get so little sleep.

New York City -> Washington DC, 2 Days

Wash DC -> Tampa, 2 Days

Tampa -> Aruba, 2 Days

Aruba -> Houston, 2 Days

Houston -> San Jose, 2 Days

14 airports. 30 days. I'm still double checking all the connections but I think this probably the max you can hit within the promotion. I originally wanted to do the international parts like Aruba, PR, San Jose, Cancun but that's just not workable or it'll has to be a trip in itself.

Considering the extra costs needed for traveling outside of the airport, food, and living expenses, I'm going to be spending at least $3k ($599 pass + $200 taxes/fees + $1000 food + $1000 beds + rental car/cabbing/bussing?) for everything.

Concept wise, I'm also drawing a blank, I need a hot geek girl/onair personality to come along. I can Ustream all the airports but no one will sponsor/pay for it--certainly not JetBlue since they know 1000 people will consider it, a dozen will go through with it, and all the social media marketing will be valued at zero. At best you can tape yourself going to all the airports and talk about them (review the architecture, shops, food, services, etc.) but that's boring after awhile. Time-lapsing and condensing the footage into a 5 minutes Where In the World is Matt video, maybe, but that's marginally novel and I think will only be a moderate (YouTube: 500k? Vimeo: 100k?) viral hit. How do I monetize on viral videos?

I don't have access to a pre-existing support system so it makes it that much harder, whoever has access to a film/production crew or video podcast already can certainly this take this and run a big play. Who has connects? Let's talk, I'm willing to help.

In my mind I think this is the greatest modern American road trip you can get but in the BACK of my mind where logic resides I think this is the worst idea ever. Argh... bad idea, bad idea, bad idea, bad idea...

Edit: This would allow for THE best geocache or turfwar game. EVER. Or an web-based Amazing Race knockoff. Argh, I need to start a production company.

PS. How fast will I end up on the terrorist watch list after this?
Yeah, the function of the site is to alert you the moment a class opens up. So I need to get the data as often as I can.

If the IT department is worried about server load, perhaps you could arrange to get a data feed once or twice per day (overnight would probably be best).

Tried that. All they would have to do is put all the data on one page instead of me having to make 130 requests(one for each department). They refused saying they don't have resources. I've tried to be as nice as I possibly can be and they've been as dick-like as they can be.

My last resort would be to ask our user-base to call the IT office and voice their support.
I should try this strategy. I haven't woken up before 2 PM for over a month now.

We have a strong preference for open source experience: our team (see http://cloudera.com/about) includes core contributors from the Berkeley DB, Ganglia, Lucene/Nutch, Hadoop, and MooTools projects.

We expect you to communicate ideas clearly, exhibit preternatural intellectual curiosity across a variety of domains, write quality code, and have a consistent focus on improving yourself and the team around you.

If you're interested, drop your CV and a cover letter to jobs@cloudera.com.

My stunning eastern european friends had a great time, too. There were tons of guys asking for their phone numbers everytime. They received so much attention that they felt like princesses or something. And since I have traveled around Eastern Europe quite a bit, I know they're not that amazingly beautiful when compared to the beauty standards of their homecountry.

I knew about the cool "underground" parties. They benefited from my information. I benefited from their company. They met tons of guys. I met tons of girls. It was a win-win situation. I wouldn't call it a "mercenary way" (not that I am offended by that notion). I just think that in life there are positive-sum games to be played, and those are the games I like to play :-)

On the other hand, I have some exciting startup ideas of my own and this may be an opportunity to be a launchpad for them, in which case I would retain an appropriate amount of ownership/equity in those circumstances, of course.
Yeah, I sometimes drive to a nice spot (for me it's near a beach), find a shady spot, open the doors and sunroof and sit in the passenger seat with laptop on the ... lap :-)

With Android, you can actually develop directly on the device (with android-scripting).

For big apps, you can download the SDK for free onto any computer that can run Java 1.5.

(At this point, Android is the only real competitor to the iPhone. Since the iPhone is the more expensive SDK of the two, I am confused as to how you can use the word "pittance".)
Still, I wouldn't risk losing time on possible issues.

And you're developing an iPhone app? Maybe you don't keep up with the blogosphere, but I think XCode is the least of your worries...
