"I've used Perl for one-page web apps. I've used Perl for one-hundred-page web apps. I've used Perl for HTTP load testing. I've used Perl for high performance messaging. I've used Perl for writing desktop apps." Me too. And I hung out in th

There is pretty good GPRS cellular internets (and I hear faster now) in Benaulim, and presumably other beaches in Goa. It was like $10 a month and all you can eat. :)

Think of the scale. 40,000 US/British planes were lost or damaged beyond repair, nevermind the ones that got a few bullet/flack holes and survived - most planes every mission. Thousands of planes would meet for a single bombing run. One

I took a six month break from Perl. I know it better than any other language. I recently started using it again for one offs. I love Perl. It is so much fun to be totally fluent in a language. Then I wrote a one page app in it. Oh my go

I'm having trouble believing this is not a hoax. This doesn't feel real to me. The entire thing feels like it is staged by Arrington and McClure.

When will people learn not to believe everything they read on the intranet?

It is false that there wasn't a headcount freeze, it did however end.

I wouldn't work at Zynga, but your dismissal of them is pretty on par for Google's social media strategy, so it does make sense :)

That article, yes. Check out any of the many in the google search. This one stands out: http://online.wsj.com/article/SB124269038041932531.html This is well covered. As to 'common knowledge,' it is common knowledge outside of google th

Why would anyone want to work at Google at this point? They can't hold onto their people, have very high churn and dissatisfaction rates, etc. I could see maybe wanting to put in a year to learn the google stack, or if you have a particula

I see. You and 3 buddies are driving along the road in Burma during WWII, and you run over a landmine. Two of you are dead, two of you are injured. You drag your concussed, burned selves to the next base. You get first aid, pick up part

Individual rights aren't relevant. This is a public health issue that doesn't infringe on anyone's rights outside of some Libertarian wet dream. We license restaurants based on health inspections, does that infringe on your right to serve

See: Public health. The federal government, and even 'world government' have been wildly successful in this area. As a result, the quality of human life has dramatically improved.

He gave it a sane interface for a broader use case, with sane code that he published. Mission accomplished. Not just complaining.

He did rewrite it to be more flexible. So while you are right, I'm down-voting you for not reading the fucking article ;)

Very impressed that these are available in 64 bit. That means that one OS image can scale from micro to ginormous. WIN.

It is hilarious that we haven't managed to pull this off in a non-proprietary, slow, bloated way until now. The web derailed with IE and Flash. It was set back 10 years. Now we're on track again.
