Very nice looking. I know that Marco Arment runs his blog off of his PHP version of the same idea, dubbed "SecondCrack" http://www.marco.org/secondcrack I've also been looking at a simple blog updater that can update from anywhere (especi

You were doing a fresh install (no SP) of a 10 year-old operating system (xp) on an infected network and you were surprised you got compromised? Now, XP is first of all, not a great standard in security practices. But without any security u

While I agree with you, semantically, the author did already address that. "Technically, HTML5 is a specification from the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) (Footnote 2). Many pedants will claim this is the only correct usage. For the rest of

My father got his break in a similar way. He had been working in steel mills for all of his teens, and after high school went into the Marines. After getting out of the marines, he went to get a job at GM on the assembly line. He was well d

While I would love them to bring the array functions more into line with other OO langauges, the entire language is not structured around that concept, so you would be in essence writing a whole new language. Because almost all the modern P

Knowing this was from 2005 would have been helpful. Having the date be written at the very bottom of the article didn't make things any better. While many of his points are valid, his comparison of carpentry to using a framework takes a ver

Thanks for the support and the great idea about the Work Journal. I'm not very good about time budgeting, so I think that having a work journal will keep me on the right track. (Also, I love look back at my current work memo months later an

Nope. ;) I'm a middle of the road Japanese salary-man, so I really don't have the means to start funding startups, especially when I don't know if I'll be able to feed myself and my family next month. ;) I did get the offer of seed money fr

Thanks for the solid advice. I'm confident in my vision (and that is one of the reasons I'm leaving my current job -- their lack of a vision and a dearth of leadership). The like-minded people... I have maybe 4 or 5 amazingly talented peopl

I fully agree that I need to figure out how to make it actionable. I feel that there is an problem of education with regards to data-driven customer acquisition. The first step is to start informing companies of the benefits that data analy

On a previous project for a very large automaker, it took me 5 full days plus a 1 week trip to 4 cities in China to change a single graphic. (The rational was that they wanted the client to talk directly with the engineers instead of having

Robert, Just want to say congratulations! I've heard only great things about what you're doing, and I hope you can improve the quality of web translations in Japan. I've been involved in a number of multi-lingual Japanese sites, and I wonde

Point of note: "a Startup in Japan" does not necessarily mean "a Japanese Startup." I don't think I see any Japanese people in that picture, and I seem to remember from my sources that there are only one or two Japanese people working at th

From what I learned in art school (so take with a grain of salt) your brain will compensate for the 3d effect for a period of time (so that you think that you're still seeing in 3-d) but it can't compensate fully for 3d, which means if some

Sorry, you are right. I actually don't know at what point exposure becomes poisoning. I believe there were 3 SDF members who were hospitalized for radiation, but I could be wrong (also, I read it on the 共産党 site, so who knows)

It was crazy scary, and I was all the way down in Nagoya. There doesn't seem to be too much damage in Miyagi (where the earthquake was) but some fires broke out apparently. Luckily, it seemed to be a long, hard earthquake rather than a shor
