It's like Portlandia.. for startups?

Te 360 has 1080p support.

I wonder what would happen if it wasn't such a waste of money to give it to the government. Would people be more inclined to stick around and do so? I don't blame him one bit, seems like most of his money would end up bailing out a bank or something equally disagreeable.

Along these lines are there any plans for "learn compilers the hard way" ? Missed that big time in school.

Losing 20 lbs. changed how I feel everyday in such a positive way.. I can't even imagine 100! And like the poster said, you can eat amazing food and lose weight.

Obligatory XKCD: http://xkcd.com/538/

Seriously though, why does the government think they can win at this stuff? Without hitting the guy with a wrench that is.

If something is leaky, it's worth force killing it then, right?

Certainly no one would buy the enterprise version of Github if it was free though. Just a thought.

It'd be fun to see the tech stacks of the various political parties and see how they stack up against the stereotypes, etc.

I mean this has to be Java right? or PHP?

edit: or .NET! Duh!

Get an artist involved ASAP! :)

Aaron! Font size! Bigger!

Would love to see more about how to read that disassembly and piece all that together.. I'm impressed!

Almost always, yes. If you script everything all the time, even if it takes you longer, twenty years later you'll be able to script anything so fast you'll be so productive your head will spin.

It's like learning Vim. :)

Impressive and fun. Dying to reverse the up and down on the arrow keys though!

No repro.

Without severely paranoid steps being taken, if someone has your physical device they are going to be be able to gain access to the files on that device. This isn't hard math to do.

Siri isn't sending anything to anyone. I think that's his point. Siri added a task to a calendar, just like she has always "known" how to do.

By 2pm they were all running it? And Apple dropped the ball.. how?

I understand there were delays, but I got a ton of updates yesterday that I really needed (iOS developer) and they all worked well together.

It won't matter if the files are saved in the "Documents" folder as that isn't cleaned.

So, people (developers) are going to have to put their stuff in Documents, and instruct users to disable the iCloud sync for their particular app, unless the user really wants to have it eat into their iCloud storage.

Would that work?

This feels like a response to destroyallsoftware.com. Which is AWESOME. I'm glad the "pro" market for screencasts is getting more attention.

Possibly the worst abuse of "mobile" web high jacking. Can't even scroll without "paging" over? Boo!

You could still run windows server on those though..?

Ruby does string formatting that way.

You're probably right. Seems mostly a case of.. "Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity."

Mix in a bit of "lazy" and you've got yourself a situation that sucks for the small people unable to fix the big system.

Notch just talked about how it was going to be super expensive to do this, and changed the quality of the stream to low to hopefully counteract that somehow?

That seems crazy to me, we all want to watch this and it's costing him money to do us that favor? Seemingly he's also driving traffic to livestream, is it because he has no ads or something?

Ha, I was just thinking the same thing. Also, if we're talking pure logistics, don't jump off the BIKE either.

Perhaps we should consider the fact that the secret service was involved.. I bet that guy is pretty fast. I don't know why I think that though, just seems more "tough".

Another thing: Aaron is a really important person to have writing/researching/hacking outside of prison. Surely it's a net win to just pay a faster/sneakier kid to do this for him? Do you think he thought for one second he might get caught?

35 YEARS IN PRISON? Avon Barksdale is only serving seven! :)

I'm almost with you on this. Human beings deserve to be treated with respect, period. You can respectfully and forcefully decline and explain your reasons for doing so. Treating them poorly isn't going to help anyone, ever. Shaming them into getting a new job just simply isn't going to work.

Always fun to read about how someone rolled their own, but as nerds we have to poke right?

Why write a textile parser in Go? Run the JSON through one that's already written? Store the posts pre-rendered?

I like the author's premise. It's hard to find good writing that hasn't been rewritten.. a lot. That seems true to me about code as well. Perhaps we're seeing a lot of "rough draft" code being pushed to production. Novels never get published like that (hopefully!).
