the author writes: In his second last paragraph, Myhrvold predicts the winners will be those who "own the software standards on IHCs" ... this is exactly why it has been so important that internet standards remain neutral, open, and free.

this is a serious struggle i face, too. in my role i have to stay fresh and on top of large areas, new ideas, and what's coming next. curation, while tempting, leads to an echo chamber. i've built curation tools for the past ten years, most

surprisingly little mention of the actual interfaces themselves (the API calls) and instead a lot of focus on the meat that goes on those bones. Hanson's "C interfaces and implementations" has a lot of good stuff but some of it doesn't appl

amusingly not a mention of benjamin bloom and his seminal work "Developing Talent in Young People". he and his team studied over 120 individuals under 40 in 6 fields and found consistent themes. this few page PDF breaks it down nicely: htt

i think the comment is about the archaic interface to the disk partitioning that openbsd uses in the installer. it confuses a lot of people. (former openbsd user, committer, and book author. no, i don't use it any more.)

this isn't limited to anonymous and doxing, this has been going on for a while now. the internet's role in mobilizing people as vigilantes - in the name of truth, justice, etc - is growing. see the stories here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wik

"If Rand is so bad ..." the problem is that most people haven't read Rand, even so called "adherents" and "fans", and so they don't know what the heck they're talking about. the few people that have can see through the bull.

you're treating the company as monolithic, and it's not. every group has their own hiring practices and contractors, and manage it differently. i came across this when a bunch of infosec people (myself included) got spammed for entry level

this is sort of the same thing i went through, except without 4 years of slogging through an academic position (i applied to two and achieved neither). there are, i think, an untold number of Ph.D.s out there who, like me (and the guy on SE

see, a brief tour or highlight would have helped make that point a lot faster. i have no doubt that you guys have a system worth checking out, but i have to evaluate a lot of solutions quickly. you haven't yet earned a special place for me
