   Agreed, Bellman-Ford is a more efficient solution.

   I'm just gonna jump out there and offer a prediction: Erdogan ain't gonna be hold power till 2014. Most of those victims pictured didn't look like young anarchists/WTO protesters to me... they looked like average citizens. Even if you've go

   How awesome if would be if Windows dominance was limited to K-12... I want to live in that world. I'm in University and I still find myself explaining to "cyberinfrastructure" developers that their "novel idea" is really just cron + shell +

   Clever is not smart. Consider this anecdote: I recently put together a DIY 3d printer. I didn't have the right tools to cut steel bar, so I made a clever jig and used a shitty Dremel without enough clearance. Clever? Yes -- it got the job d

   Break? There is always - and will always be - the analog loop. This is a silly invention for media executives that do not understand (1) their customers or (2) those dedicated to pirating their content.

    Very troubled waters indeed... I spent quite a bit of time there in the late 90s; absolutely love the country and the people, despite almost getting blown up by the PKK. After Erdogan came to power, I was wondering how long it would take th

    Well, there is the cellular tower, which is on the grid... give me three and I can triangulate you. Assuming you don't spoof your MAC, yeah, I'd say tracking is feasible.

    Until he parks a truck full of explosives outside a federal building and kills 168 innocents (including 19 children under 6), I think not. Now, pipe down and let the adults speak.

    You sound like a lot of people I knew from Seattle back in the 90s... Funny. For the kiddies too young to remember: After the S&L crisis, there was an exodus from SoCal to <anywhere else>.

    I am totally one of these ravers. Go is the right language for the right time: easy enough for the Python people (like me) to pick up quickly, but with a concurrency model that makes taking advantage of multi-core very easy. Anyone prefer S

    I'm kind of shocked by the extremist label. I don't think Richard Stallman is a nut at all. Eccentric, sure, but only for the unfortunate reality that it is rare for most people to stick with a principle over decades. EDIT: ok, that foot ea

    I've read that quantum computing is picking up, so please correct me if I'm wrong... it IS still pretty hard to factor very large primes, right? This push to "stop terror" via reading the general public's email/chats/etc. seems more like Bi

    You sound burned out, not desperate. I personally would take a breather and get a full-time job doing something I enjoy and revisit entrepreneurship in a 18-24 months. I'm only a few years younger than you.

    I think this is likely to be a better strategy for getting new users than losing existing ones. I've been using the free tier for a couple years now as a student. Because of this free micro offer, I'm now queued up to convert into a paying
