Dennis Ritchie is an unforgettable person in history because if it weren't for his inventions, most of today's technology wouldn't exist or be very different.

If you have the time, I'd recommend reading one of his books.

R.I.P., http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dennis_Ritchie

It is a great loss to know such an entrepreneur has died because of legal problems. I, myself, have faced similar been in a similar situation. I feel that Aaron was a martyr for the open source of academic papers. Unfortunately he will not see his impact on this modern and technology dependent world.

R.I.P. Aaron Swartz!

Looks cool, but why can't this be achieved by simply using the native iOS implementation?

I threw a wish in the well, Don't ask me, I'll never tell I looked to you as it fell, And now you're in my way

I'd trade my soul for a wish, Pennies and dimes for a kiss I wasn't looking for this, But now you're in my way

Your stare was holdin', Ripped jeans, skin was showin' Hot night, wind was blowin' Where you think you're going, baby?

Hey, I just met you, And this is crazy, But here's my number, So call me, maybe?

Your page needs to scale correctly. I can't even sign up for the beta. I just tried signing up for it twice.

First time, http://cryptoseal.com/beta/ received a 400. Second time, http://connect.cryptoseal.com:8443/beta/thanks/ with a 400: http://cl.ly/image/0s1v1z3X0z3I

Why do you make us sign up for a beta/invite if we can't even use it right away and wait? I don't understand. What's the whole point of a launch if you're going to do that? First, you're having a bad registration flow because I'm already frustrated with your service. Two, I can't even use your product to test it and have to 'wait' for the invitation.

I'm not sure whether this was a marketing stunt or the betapunch guys didn't know how to act professionally. Honestly, someone at betapunch should have stepped in and indicated the problem. I'm not even sure why it took two days for a formal apology, it should have been done much sooner than that.

Betapunch guys need to hire the right employees to handle PR and interact with people because this post shows those interactive skills are not his strengths.

Wow, I just tried this image of faces:

http://3rdarm.biz/images/2010/02/faces.jpg

It got almost all of them but so many errors. It can't detect sheeps either.

I was really impressed at first, but as I tried out more and more images, it became apparent that the api isn't mature enough for one or two cents worth of money. There is a 90% of the algorithm detect the image correctly, but sometimes it doesn't detect the entire object. For example, I used another image of two jets, but it only found one of them even though the jets were identical, but one was smaller than the other.

I love the hacker dojo. Every time I come here, I meet great people. Not only are the people awesome to hang out with, it is very worthwhile to get out of your "cave" and share your opinions and thoughts about the programming world. Who knows, you might even get lucky meeting someone that may be your next cofounder!

My friend who came from Tokyo says the transit here (bay area) is horrible. She states that you can't get anywhere you like and the scheduling system isn't always on time. In Japan, people rarely drive because the public system is everywhere and very efficient. You get a train every 5 minutes so you don't have to wait 30 minutes just for your ride.

If VTA (being in the center of the valley) implements some sort of GPS tracker on their trains, I think it give people a better idea when to head for the train station.

Safari is one of the best browsers I've used. It led to a better web development. If it weren't for the webkit, the might look like it's stuck in the 1990s.

Another remake: http://pancake.io/

Looks like they are trying to rewrite Python.

How does that scale?

Their community is awesome!

imagine if your computer was infected and it injects html looking like that and take you somewhere else instead of google

Sure, it's deprecated. Using the new API: http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json?address=Alb...

Still produces the SAME result.

NPR, I hate to break it to you, but leaves falling off trees has nothing to do with evolution. Fall and Winter come because the goddess Demeter is sad that her daughter Persephone has to spend 6 months in Hades! I'm so disappointed, usually your stories are so accurate!

Cool.
