I actually feel like AS3 could go further with static typing. Due to things like promotions with arithmetic operators, you lose some performance. I always felt it would be better to either force the user to explicitly cast between floatin

Longboards are also a nice, compact option for short distances around town.

I suppose we all love the game of conjecture though. It is certainly a favorite past time of many.

Very true. Adobe was betting hard on the idea that they could sell AS3 like syntax as the new ECMA standard.

There was a point where Adobe had a chance to evolve flash into a platform for creating HTML sites and applications (much like coffeescript, LESS, or any other intermediate might be). It certainly would have involved open sourcing large co

For all that is wrong with flash as a platform, I have always found Actionscript 3 to be a far better structured and easy to work with language, compared to something like javascript, which has a very 'organic' structure. I can&#x

I threw in 25 bucks personally. I'd love to see this project become a reality. Good luck!

Effective hiring is incredibly difficult, and "past work" is never a sure fire indicator of ones aptitude for your companies' needs. A person hiring needs to consider how a candidate will fit within a work environment and get

Despite California being at will, in order to cover yourself legally, you still need to have a documented history of a persons inability to perform in order to terminate them. If you don't, you are still opening yourself up for a wron

I couldn't agree with your sentiment more. A great antidote to having to fire quickly, is to be better at hiring effectively (a task much easier said than done). Most of us at startups, being driven by younger people that have not ha

I really like duck duck go. I just wish they would register ddg.cm so I don't have to type out the whole url. I would register it myself and forward it if it wasn't for the fact that cm registrations cost nearly 100 dollars.

As far as I can surmise, the reason that the Bolivian president complied was due to the fact that had he not, it would at the very least, be seen as an act of aggression, and could possibly be seen as much more. Though they wouldn't th

The article was a good read. Through out the article though, I couldn't help but feel that Paul Graham wants to change how startups are invested in, specifically the 24 hour turnaround on investment decisions and the A round change, an

This is potentially great news for anyone using a browser. Let's hope that the implementation is close to spec, and makes for a relatively seamless experience across all browsers.

These kind of actions on the part of existing taxi and limo services are to be expected. When a large and powerful group can't win on merit or the quality of their product, they will attempt to win through any other means, including l

I have used Scala in conjunction with the Play Framework as of late. I am a fan of it.

This is essentially the same system, but with a middle man. It may obfuscate some of the players involved, but it doesn't solve the issue that you are still disclosing information due to the pre-agreed context of the conversation.

That is where plausible deniability comes in to play. He could lie under oath, and it's still plausible that he is telling the truth. The only play on the government's part at that point, as far as I can tell, would be to acknowl

Your second proposition would be fascinating to watch play out in the courts. If I had to make a guess, I would bet that ultimately, the individual would win out in what would probably go to the supreme court (at least in the US). By that

The relevance of the article has changed, hence the upvotes. The point of the system is to deliver articles, that at any given time, are most relevant to the audience reading them (which is why I would imagine I have not seen many articles

It's effectiveness is not proven one way or another, as it has not been implemented by many people, or tested in a court of law. At best, it's a novel hack.

The difference is that this doesn't get around the "spirit of the law", but directly acts in breach of it. They are essentially creating a heart beat, and using a break in that heart beat to signal that a certain event has t

There is an aspect of deniability though it's weak, especially with something that is both updated at regular time intervals, and was otherwise reliably updated. Maybe a better solution would be a system that generated an indicator wit

Some gag orders have been. Other types have not.

You are correct that a company could be sued for other things, such as lying. My point is that a warrant canary _does_ disclose information; specifically through implication. I am sure that in a court of law, given that an implication mad

Within the construct of the US government, these type of gag orders are legally valid at this point in time. Whether they should be is another matter all together, but given precedent, the assumption that they are valid is rational.
