At first I thought maybe I was a little hasty, in calling you a fucking idiot. Now I'm glad that you have reaffirmed my initial suspicions.

I had a big long post written up about crippling depression, and how it really can stop a person from functioning in life. Instead, I'll just post and call you a fucking idiot.

Ran headfirst into this issue earlier this week. Unfortunately, the issue was not fixed in 1.4 as of Monday. Judging by their published release timeline, 1.4 is set to be released the first week of March, I dont think a fix will make it in

I'd go one further, entire industries have been created to tackle this very problem! There is a lot of money in mining logs properly, it's easily a billion dollar industry.

To me, the existing kindle is already quite a good tablet. It might not have all the bells and whistles of an ipad, but there's an active app community, it's "tablet" sized, and is geared towards content consumption and not creation. For m

I get sick to my stomach each time I see a contest like this. All risk is born by the participants, and no matter the outcome, the only result for the contest runner is a demonstrably larger bottom line. I believe that to have paid profess

Time for a some what off topic anecdote. My workplace used to post all H1-B pay rates in the breakroom. The day after my review, in which I brought up the pay discrepancy between me and the H1-B workers at a similiar grade, they all came do

I too had this same thought. The only thing I could come up with is that, anyone implementing these at scale (fb's competitors) has already committed substantial dollar amounts to existing infrastructure. To leverage the minor improvements

Grooveshark has a content deal with EMI. I'm sure there are deals with other labels as well.

There is no check that array[i] actually exists. If array[] has 2 items but args[] has 5, you will overflow the array.

People are not born with the ability of a Djikstra or whomever you idolize. It takes decades of diligent practice to get to that point. Do not feel down about feeling stupid or inadequate, just keep working in a reasoned manner towards you

Gmail accounts and capcha solving services are cheap compared to the profits you could make off of getting your site ranked #1 for a profitable search keyword.

It's a shame that most of this interview was derailed into a political conversation.

Perl best practices is probably the best perl book I've read. I'm working my way through higher order perl and thats a great read as well.

Thank you so much for the tip, I'll look at doing this. FWIW though I have almost no traffic to these boxes, so I've never noticed any sort of performance issues.

I like to SSH in from all over the place, and so a default deny iptables policy would be a disaster for me. After some research, I went ahead and blocked all of China and Korea using iptables. For anyone curious I put my modified iptables

How does moving educational goal posts based on race raise the level of education in the US? Furthermore, the educational system you describe already occurs throughout many parts of the US. Test prep and the private sector is not an answer

It's not that cut and dry though, the white house had an opportunity to minimize the damage and did nothing about it.

He felt threatened by 2 MIT students? Surely Lamo must have knew that bradass87 and his alleged "accomplices" were not mafia heavy hitters. In all seriousness, this is piss poor reporting. Like others have pointed out, this is second hand i

Perhaps because the post is off putting to readers and makes the guy come across like an asshole? Do not be an asshole is one of the first lessons of social interaction. It's a shame some people confuse confidence with being an asshole. Se

All good points, but in all of your scenarios having fake/stolen accounts would still allow you to game the system. Friend networks can be staged/stolen just as easily as an account.

I agree. Brad Pitt earns what he does because of the amount of money his movies bring in. If Mike Lee can bring in enough monies for his clients to recoup his exorbitant hourly rate, more power to him. He should definitely tone down the eg
