Editors' Review
+If you haven't found a way to wrangle all those little notes stuck to your monitor, RightNote Portable offers a solution that lets you add, organize, and search notes with nearly any type of information and keep them on your computer. While it certainly does more than the typical sticky note, it's also much more complicated than jotting down a note and placing it on your PC or workstation.
Initially, RightNote opens with a very busy interface packed with information about the program. It not only tells you what the product can do, but it also demonstrates the "notebook" style the program uses to organize your notes. The wealth of information proved useful, but it was a little overwhelming at first. Within each notebook you create, you can add as many pages as you'd like. For each note, you have numerous formatting options and styles, which allows you to add spreadsheets, text documents, link bookmarks, and more. You also can include tags to make searching easier. Each notebook is organized into a file tree similar to Windows Explorer, but with tabs and a toolbar to help you add, manage, and search your notes. While many of the features and functionality would be familiar to anyone with experience using the programs in the Microsoft Office Suite, most users will benefit from spending some time with the Help file before getting started in order to get the most from the program. With all it offers, it seems a waste to just use it to keep track of your daily to-do list or links to the Web sites you want to bookmark.
You'll have 30 days to evaluate the paid product, but if you decide not to ante up, the product automatically defaults to the free version after the trial period is over. If you decide to completely uninstall the program, you'll find it leaves behind several folders and files you'll have to manually delete. We wouldn't recommend this program for the newbie, but for those who want as many options as possible for formatting and tracking information, RightNote Portable might be worth a test run.
Editors' note: This is a review of the trial version of RightNote Portable 2.8.
Publisher's Description
+RightNote Portable is a note-taker and note-organizer that allows you to store and organize all bits of different information in a single place - and find that information almost instantly. Instead of having many pieces of paper lying all over your desk, which may contain contact information, phone numbers, to-do lists, and website addresses. You can now store all of this information in a single RightNote file. The RightNote interface consists of a notebook made up of pages. Each page contains a hierarchical tree in which you can store a virtually unlimited number of notes. Notes can easily be moved within a page or from one page to another. RightNote also contains a powerful search tool which will allow you to quickly and easily find the note you are looking for. It features word processing, spreadsheet and source code type notes as well as an in-built full text search engine.

Version 3.0.3 has updated help file.

Title: | A Survey of Small Sewage Treatment Facilities in Ohio |
Creators: | Mancl, Karen M. |
Issue Date: | 1990-09 |
Citation: | The Ohio Journal of Science. v90, n4 (September, 1990), 112-117 |
Abstract: | In 1987, a small sewage treatment facilities survey was conducted of all county and local health departments in Ohio. The objectives were to learn how local sewage treatment facilities programs are managed, the types of systems in use, the numbers of permits issued, and the number of systems that are failing. The survey results indicate that urban areas in Ohio have the largest health departments and had over 13,000 permits issued in 1986 which accounted for the greatest number of permits. Site evaluation procedures varied greatly across the state. In 25 counties, permits were issued without a visit to the site. Sanitarians estimated that 27% of the septic systems are failing. Aerobic systems are used heavily in Ohio, while alternative systems have limited use. To address the problems of failing systems and unsuitable sites for septic systems, more information is needed at the county level about alternative sewage systems and on-site system management. |

Michael Dear is a professor of City and Regional Planning in the College of Environmental Design at the University of California, Berkeley. His most recent book, Why Walls Won't Work, details the history and current state of the US-Mexico borderlands, and the dynamic third nation that connects the two nations.
Buy the book
With the broad historical sweep and the patience to tell those earlier stories first without rushing ahead to our walled and bordered present, this book could become the definitive history of the U.S.-Mexico border. It is certainly the best I have read.

REWICK, Mo., Tuesday, Oct. 15.
The train on the North Missouri Railroad from St. Louis was stopped at this place yesterday morning by a party of thirty armed Secessionists, and six National recruiting officers on board taken prisoners. The rebels then searched the train, but for some unknown reason did not enter the express car, in which there were 300 Enfield rifles, and two tons of military clothing destined for Nebraska. Two of the captured officers were released on the spot, and three of the four others were set at liberty a few hours afterwards. No shots were fired and nobody was hurt.

There's plenty to keep you entertained and busy here, from the museums, art galleries, shops, traditional markets and Theatres the choice is endless. Southhampton is also know as the greenest city in southern England, known because of the many parks the city has.

The price for the rooms comes with all bills included, the room comes with a comfortable bed, wifi and Linen.

My wife and I stayed here for 1 night. The bed was comfortable. There was plenty of on-street parking available. Friendly family. We liked being able to use their kitchen to make a meal.
The family was very welcoming and we could the house as we would ours.
We spent a really nice time at Mohi and Shuma's house. They are really friendly and their 2 little boys are very cute. Our son enjoyed his time with the oldest one. Mohi and Shuma are also really helpful. The only problem would be the door between the corridor and the entry which needs a key to be open. So if someone closes this door you could be locked outside! But Mohi and Shuma found a solution for this during our stay and the problem has been solved. In addition to that, they are really arranging and they do their best to make your stay really enjoyable. We would definitly recommend them and would be please to come back one day in their accomodation.
I was well received by MOhi and his family and made really comfortable The place is as advertised I will recommend this host anytime A.Hanson
Lovely welcome from Mohi and Shuma and the children. Comfy clean bedroom, good selection of breakfast food, very friendly hosts. My first airbnb stay, a perfect introduction. Hope to stay again on my next trip to Southampton

It was a great place to stay :)
We had everything needed and highly recommend it

Just clearing out the notebook here with a collection of thoughts from two opposite ends of the blueline being patrolled by Kings prospects – Derek Forbort was the team's first round pick in 2010, while Nick Ebert was the overall last player selected at the 2012 NHL Draft.

Kings 2013 DevCamp: Seven questions with Tyler Toffoli
He's arrived. Maybe that's the headline that should follow him around for a while.
This season, Tyler Toffoli went from top ranked prospect in the Kings organization to seeing time on the team's second line in the NHL playoffs.
It's been a somewhat linear development, with a consistent upward trajectory, compared to most other players though. He scored 57 […]
Kings 2013 DevCamp: Seven questions with Joel Lowry
In the world of real estate, it's all about location, location, location.
For Kings prospect Joel Lowry that could be why you rarely hear about him.
It has nothing to do with his skill or his size, but simply a matter of where he plays.
He's not in one of the three major Canadian junior leagues, nor does he […]

Rad, I salute you. You are honoring your father and caring for him as he cared for you. Personally you are a hero to me. A great example of charity, love unfeigned, and respect. Too many people take the easy way out and put their family members in a home. Your father may not be able to tell you but he knows you, loves you and is very proud of you. Good luck in MMA and the rest of your personal life. May your father never suffer, may you realize all your dreams and may he be there to share it all with you. May God Bless and keep you and yours.

WOW! A real man's man! I didn't think they existed anymore! Gentle and caring; brave and tough! What a fantastic husband and father he will make someday! All he needs is the female version of him! I hope she exists. He deserves her….wherever she is!

Rad, I am so proud of you. You amaze me every single day. I can only hope to become, as Mills in Tacoma said, a "female version of you and the kind of woman you deserve". I love you.

It does my heart good to read a story like yours. Take heart in knowing your father does know you, appreciate you and loves you very much. I wish luck in your career and the very best for you and your family. I would be proud to have a son like you. I'm sure your grandmother smiles upon you every day. It is so hard to be a caregiver. Today's youth could learn from your story. Your loyalty, love & compassion for your father brings tears to my eyes. Thanks for sharing your life with us.

The story is true. In my opinion, Rad is more notable for his character and
ethic. He's a true friend that comes forward for everyone in his life.
Regardless of his own challenges, he will always put himself last. Both he and
Levi touch the lives of many people that admire them.
When it's
time to wrap up the hands, his character remains unchanged. Then he steps into
the cage, challenges himself for something more, and does his job. While an
inspiration in the MMA world, what the story doesn't mention a lot about how Rad
and Levi were successful Graduates, and post-Graduates in college. With a life
as difficult as they had, they went far beyond what many people in the same
circumstances cannot achieve. Today, with his merit, Rad could be applying
those degrees, but he takes care of his Dad instead. He does this by choice.
In everything he does, I don't think anyone can question the size of his heart.

Rad- I will never forget the day I got to spend with you and your family,
watching you take care of your father, doing all the things that a parent does
for a child.....it was a real eye opener bro. It was amazing to see a person
scarifice as much as you do to keep you family together. It was truley
Some people think of MMA athletes as brutes and
street thugs that are out to satisfy some sort of "blood lust", but you are a
perfect example of what a true MMA athlete is made of...honor, respect,
sacrifice and hard work. Rad it has been an absolute pleasure getting to know
you and watch you grow as a pro athlete. You are truley are a man among men.
Keep doing what you are doing and I promise your future is as bright as the

As a fan of MMA I always find the lives of MMA participants interesting, but WOW
& HOLY COW, what a story! The UFC would be lucky to have Rad as one of their
participants and should offer him a contract sight unseen. At the very minimum
at least give him a shot at the reality TV show.
Most importantly,
you Rad are an example of everything good I can think of. Thanks to your beloved
Grandmother for setting an example, and thank you for having the heart to follow
that example. I don't know you Rad but you are already a CHAMP in my book and I
will hold you up as an example for my children and grandchildren for many years
to come.
God bless you and yours, Sincerely!

Thursday, October 01, 2009
I had a difficult time finding a title for this blog, mostly because it has to do more with my life than my health. Although, if you ask some folks they'll tell you that life has a way of disrupting your health, even when you least expect it.
If you noticed I haven't been around, its because I recently got a job. I know good for me, right? That position along with tutoring has been stressful. I always find myself a bit anxious during training, anyway. I actually lost a couple pounds, but my body knows me too well and has promptly put it back where it belongs....like the hips maybe?
Regardless, in the last seven days it has come to my attention that the company that hired me is not as busy as they all claim they were. I mean the day before yesterday we had only 4 sales and yesterday a whopping 1 sale! I find myself, calling customers for payment, rather than doing web design and updating websites as the job description stated I would. THAT'S COLLECTIONS, FOLKS!
No where in the ad on careerbuilder and the local job website did it mention this. Now you can say I'm a whiner. But I'm tired of companies misrepresenting themselves to hire top talent. I come with good references. (BTW, none of them have been called regarding my current position.)
They don't call it collections, however, because companies do not sign a contract. They're wording, of course. But how does this differ from me buying something from Amazon not paying for it and it going to collections.
While I'm disappointed they misrepresented the position, I reside in an "at-will" state, meaning that any employer or employee can end the employment contract at any time without legal repercussions. During the interview they're BIG concern was why did I want to work for less money, obviously they're worried I'll leave when approached by another company. And that was easy I need a job, although I didn't answer it in this way in the interview.
However, if I didn't have a reason to look for another job when the recession ends, I certainly do now. I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt, but in this recession they're non-paying account list gets longer and longer.

Member Comments About This Blog Post:
You need to find another job and get out of there quick! Not that there is anything wrong with being a collector (I understand in this economy how hard most companies are working to collect on deadbeat clients) but the very fact that they were not honest and forthright with you signals that this is an element you do not want to be in!
I have been blessed to love every boss I've ever had. (I've actually changed companies twice to follow a great boss and have gotten many promotions by getting my boss promoted!) People ask me how I was lucky enough to find such places to work for and my answer was simple- life is too short to spend 80% of your waking hours with people you do not like! Never lower your standards! I will also say that I have had six companies that I have worked for in my whole life and never once have I sent out a resume! Do not underestimate taliking with people about your successes and what you are looking for in your next job.
Take care and good luck!! Update us when you can.

Don't let the stress and frustration of your job situation turn into a trigger for emotional eating. Do the best you can to deal with the situation and maybe work your frustration out during your work-outs. And by all means - be ready to pounce on a new opportunity if it comes your way.
Keep up the good work - you're halfway to your goal weight!

Facebook's Graph Search hints at obstacles as well as opportunity
The Internet recently was abuzz with the promise of a new product announcement from Facebook. Many thought it would be a new mobile device. Mark Zuckerberg, however, ultimately released news of Facebook's new search tool, Graph Search. He described Graph Search as the "third pillar" of Facebook, alongside News Feed and Timeline.
Graph Search, unlike typical search engines, does not rely on keyword matching. It functions more like a filter of Facebook information — publicly shared information or information from your friends. (Your current Facebook privacy settings will still apply, they promise). Each person using Graph Search will then see unique results.
If you're looking for pizza restaurants in Kansas City, a Google search will give you the best search-optimized pizza joint in town, possibly customized to your browsing history, depending on your settings. A Yelp search will give the recommendations of strangers. A Graph Search on Facebook (search: pizza restaurants in Kansas City that my friends like) will give you a list your actual friends have "liked" or checked in at on Facebook.
Journalists, PR professionals and those engaged in a job search can also use Graph Search in interesting ways to help identify sources and company contacts within their Facebook network.
Our primary initial questions about Graph Search are twofold: (1) Will people use it? (2) Is our Facebook data really all that accurate?
We've all had 10 or 15 years to hone our Web search query skills. Whether you use Boolean search or natural word search, you and Google (or Bing) understand each other. Searches in Facebook will look different. They are the result of a different thought process, which may take awhile to refine.

Deuteronomy 19 New American Standard Bible (NASB)Cities of Refuge19 "When the Lord your God cuts off the nations, whose land the Lord your God gives you, and you dispossess them and settle in their cities and in their houses, 2 you shall set aside three cities for yourself in the midst of your land, which the Lord your God gives you to [a]possess. 3 You shall prepare the [b]roads for yourself, and divide into three parts the territory of your land which the Lord your God will give you as a possession, [c]so that any manslayer may flee there. 4 "Now this is the case of the manslayer who may flee there and live: when he [d]kills his friend [e]unintentionally, [f]not hating him previously— 5 as when a man goes into the forest with his friend to cut wood, and his hand [g]swings the axe to cut down the tree, and the iron head slips off the [h]handle and [i]strikes his friend so that he dies—he may flee to one of these cities and live; 6 otherwise the avenger of blood might pursue the manslayer [j]in the heat of his anger, and overtake him, because the way is long, and [k]take his life, though he was not deserving of death, since he had not hated him previously. 7 Therefore, I command you, saying, 'You shall set aside three cities for yourself.' 8 "If the Lord your God enlarges your territory, just as He has sworn to your fathers, and gives you all the land which He [l]promised to give your fathers— 9 if you [m]carefully observe all this commandment which I command you today, to love the Lord your God, and to walk in His ways always—then you shall add three more cities for yourself, besides these three. 10 So innocent blood will not be shed in the midst of your land which the Lord your God gives you as an inheritance, and bloodguiltiness be on you. 11 "But if there is a man who hates his neighbor and lies in wait for him and rises up against him and strikes [n]him so that he dies, and he flees to one of these cities, 12 then the elders of his city shall send and take him from there and deliver him into the hand of the avenger of blood, that he may die. 13 [o]You shall not pity him, but you shall purge the blood of the innocent from Israel, that it may go well with you. Laws of Landmark and Testimony14 "You shall not move your neighbor's boundary mark, which the ancestors have set, in your inheritance which you will inherit in the land that the Lord your God gives you to [p]possess. 15 "A single witness shall not rise up against a man on account of any iniquity or any sin [q]which he has committed; on the [r]evidence of two or three witnesses a matter shall be confirmed. 16 If a malicious witness rises up against a man to [s]accuse him of [t]wrongdoing, 17 then both the men who have the dispute shall stand before the Lord, before the priests and the judges who will be in office in those days. 18 The judges shall investigate thoroughly, and if the witness is a false witness and he has [u]accused his brother falsely, 19 then you shall do to him just as he had intended to do to his brother. Thus you shall purge the evil from among you. 20 The rest will hear and be afraid, and will never again do such an evil thing among you. 21 Thus [v]you shall not show pity: life for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot.

text: OK, forget my comment about thunderbird from above. I just found out the following: There are different "tabs" (No real tabs, but similar), with "General", "Display", "Composition" and so on. Now when you select one tab and close the preferences window, thunderbird remembers that and shows the same tab, when you open the preferences-windows again, however, it resizes it so fit the current "tab". That means: If you left it at a big tab (actually I mean a tab that has much content, therefore is high) the last time like "General" or "Composition" everything is fine when you open the preferences-window and switch to other tabs. However, when you have left it at a small tab, like "Privacy" or "Attachments" the last time and then open the preferences window and switch to a big tab, the window is to small to show the whole content. Nattgew: Can you confirm? So everything boils down to this: When the preferences-window is opened, it should resize to fit the biggest one of the "tabs", not the currently showing one. ** Changed in: firefox (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed ** Changed in: mozilla-thunderbird (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed -- Firefox/Thunderbird Preferences Window too short https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/186448 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mozilla Bugs, which is subscribed to firefox in ubuntu.

Triode Bias 101
Hi! I am Kyle, and I am slowly amassing intel to construct an aikido phono circuit. I have a few principle questions on tube biasing. Although all the values are given to produce quality sound, I want to be able to backtrack the design and see where the 12ax7 tubes I select will sit on the charts. (sweet spots)
So the basics: (1) on the chart how are the lines derived? (2) what are the steps on selecting the proper values (3) how to read the chart with my selected vales (4) what are danger areas. (being that I want minimal distortion) I have been trying to reed through Nazaroos bias chart, but there are some steps I have to understand before tackling this chart properly: Golden Tubes: Tube Biasing 101 (Pt 2): 12AX7 bias chart! I have been digging for the tutorials, so if anyone has a reference source for me to read through, that would be ultra! |

ah! Excellent! I read through the 'Triode Gain Stage' chapter and got a pretty sweet overview on the biasing basics.
I also just landed on the page "The Shunt Regulated Push-Pull (SRPP)", looks just like the set up that the Aikdio shares. Currently this site is answering all my questions. This whole site is the goldmine! Thank you Tony. |

ohyes! I was originally looking at the PhonoDude design alot as well. One of the reasons of truly getting to the bottom of all this was to understand the differences between the mu-follower vs srpp (Aikido)
Alot of confusion started to arise when dealing at super low pre amp levels (Strange Ra numbers). I felt obligated to go back and verify and reproduce these models via LTspice myself. Thanks for the forwarding of links! These are extraordinarily helpful. Slow reading and weeding |

Podcast #59
This is the 59th episode of the StackOverflow podcast where Joel and
Jeff sit down with Damien Katz (of CouchDB) to discuss non-conventional databases, non-conventional programming languages, and taking on non-conventional programming projects.
- Stop, do not pass go, do not collect $200: watch Damien Katz' outstanding Rubyfringe presentation, CouchDB and Me. It is a hugely inspirational presentation for any working programmer. I can't recommend it enough. Go watch it now!
- We have forgiven Damien Katz for working on Lotus Notes. Mostly. To his credit, he did write some very cool code, as documented in his famous formula engine rewrite.
- You can think of Damien Katz' CouchDB project as the distilled "good stuff" from Lotus Notes. Wait! Why are you running away? Come back! It's not that bad! We swear!
- Damien used Erlang to build CouchDB, largely because it makes error recovery and multiprocessing so much easier. Or as Damien says "what happens when everything goes to s**t". In other words, networking fails, or you don't have enough memory to complete the operation. This is stuff that is very tricky in C++, but almost trivial in Erlang.
- CouchDB took off when the JSON and JavaScript bindings were produced — and were a big hit. This probably says something about trying to popularize your open source project: is it accessible to the average programmer?
- On Damien's journey as a software developer: "eventually you get tired of working on stuff for other people."
- The negotiations with IBM included the synonyms "douchebags" and "vapid bureaucrats". They seemed to appreciate his honesty (at least for the set of bad eggs he's referring to), and Damien is a guy who has spent some time in the bowels of IBM and knows what he is getting into.
- I liked that Damien, when he reached analysis paralysis in the middle of his project, turned to the soothing, calming midwestern voice of Steve McConnell — and the classic (and my favorite) book Code Complete 2.
- While building up two new 1U servers for superuser.com, powering on the server with the cover off would trigger the Moro reflex in our 3 month old baby… two rooms over! That's how loud they are. REALLY loud. I was happy to have UPS take those out of my house.
- I didn't appreciate how much happier I would be with community moderation — I am unburdened from being the judge, jury, and executioner of the occasional serious misbehavior. It's a group discussion now — thanks to our awesome community moderators, we can reach a concensus together!
- What does it mean for an open-source project to be version 1? Version 0.1? Version 0.5? When is it good enough to use? Should you look at commit activity; is the project alive? Or should you look at how many people are actually using the software, regardless of version number or commit activity?
- If you're a developer, and wondering what specific problem CouchDB could solve for you, Damien says: "would the data you have typically be stored in a document in real life?" The classic example is a contacts database. Do you have a phobia of storing large blobs in a database?
- I think most hardware-oriented software developers have gone through this thought process at least once: "Hmm. I have gobs and gobs of system memory. Do I really need a swapfile on disk any more?" Don't try to outsmart the operating system designers, unless you're an operating system designer. And that goes triple for programmers who think they are language designers!
We answered the following listener questions on this podcast:
- Maayan: "What is your stance about using open source software in production code, when the open source project in question is working, but is either below 1.0 or is not actively maintained?"
Our favorite Stack Overflow questions this week are:
- Can I do transactions and locks in CouchDB? A brief discussion of how this works in CouchDB versus a typical SQL database.
- Any benefit or detriment from removing a pagefile on an 8GB RAM machine? short answer: no. Long answer: no. Fantastic answer by user quux, who also has an excellent sysadmin blog that we recommend checking out.

Podcast #58
This is the 58th episode of the StackOverflow podcast where Joel and Jeff discuss HTML encoding, designing "safe by default", whether a question can be too simple, and the art of beta testing.
- Joel wonders if doing his Visual Studio development in a virtual machine is a viable solution. I say in this era of cheap 8 GB RAM and quad core CPUs, why not?
- As always, Naming Is Hard. We're struggling with naming the hosted Stack Overflow that Fog Creek is working on. Joel likes the name "Stack Exchange". It's not bad, but we wonder if anyone listening has a better idea?
- I admit, finally, that Joel was right about something. Don't HTML encode data that's stored in your database! Take the good advice of Damien Guard and Joel Spolsky! You can choose to store both representations, but don't store just the HTML; go with the raw data at the highest level of precision.
- A brief political rant about the evil of view engines that fail to HTML encode by default. The problem with this design choice is that it is not "safe by default", which is always the wrong choice for a framework or API. Forget to encode some bit of user-entered data in one single stinking place in your web app, and you will be totally owned with XSS. Believe it. I know because it's happened to us. Multiple times!
- Joel maintains that, with a strongly-typed language and the right framework, it's possible (in theory) to completely eliminate XSS — this would require using a specific data type, a type that is your only way to send data to the browser. That data type would be validated at compile time.
- We continue to ramp up on our computer enthusiast site, superuser.com — we just launched a logo design contest at crowdspring. This will be as close as we ever get to an "anything goes" website, and I'm excited to see what happens.
- I maintain your online behavior shouldn't be all that different than your general public behavior. I say "don't post anything you wouldn't want your mom to read." Joel cites the Wall Street rule: "don't ever write anything you wouldn't want published on the front page of the Wall Street Journal." Also, systems where people are able to behave as if nobody is watching are fundamentally broken systems.
- Joel says that the only bad simple question is a duplicate simple question. I say simple questions are OK as long as they're actually interesting (in some way) for other users to consider and answer. To prove his point, Joel actually asks the question on Stack Overflow: How do I move the turtle in LOGO? Do you think this question adds value?
- Some ruminations about the challenge of asking questions when you are a total beginner and not even sure what you should be asking. Perhaps the best solution there is "screenshots", or in code parlance: just shut up and show us the code!
- Beta testing is an art, and perhaps the first beta test barrier is if people can actually understand whatever the heck it is you're trying to do. There's often a disconnect between what beta users say (particularly gung-ho early adopters who love betas) and what typical users do. Unfortunately at the early beta, you lack the one thing you'd benefit from most: lots of usage data!
- The absurdity of the term "Content Management System". It's for, y'know, managing.. content. What does this even mean? Trying to be everything to everyone means you solve nobody's problem particularly well. Maybe this is why Fog Creek's hosted FogBugz is not attempting to expand thematically beyond their core business: software bug tracking.
- Remember that random NTP server that Joel ran into? They're back — and they made a slightly .. uh.. disturbing .. theme song for us! Thanks! We think!
We answered the following listener questions on this podcast:
- Joseph: "Now that you have the jobs connection up and running, how do you think that will affect the questions and answers on the site — that some future employer might see what they're doing?"
- Frank: "What are your thoughts on getting beta testers (and getting good beta results) when you don't necessarily have a super high profile project?"
Our favorite Stack Overflow questions this week are:
- Twitter image encoding challenge. Not necessarily useful, but a really fun programming challenge. Great use of the bounty system as well!

Podcast #57
This is the 57th episode of the StackOverflow podcast where Joel and Jeff discuss the relationship between speed and skill, iPhone development, and the value of programming fundamentals.
- Joel comments on the surprising correlation between how fast you can solve a simple problem, and your overall skill level as a programmer. This is why giving even a very experienced programmer a simple problem can still work. If you can't truly master the fundamentals, it's hard to work at higher levels of abstraction.
- We agree with Paul Graham: in general, there tends to be a correlation between the length of a response and its quality. We've also observed this pattern on Stack Overflow. It isn't always true (TL;DR), but it's a verifiable pattern. Either be the first and quickest, or be the best and most comprehensive!
- Due to high demand, five new cities were added to the Stack Overflow DevDays: Boston, Austin, Los Angeles, Cambridge (UK), and Amsterdam.
- I was quite impressed with the striking design Mike Kus put together for the Stack Overflow DevDays website. He breaks it down step by step for us. Like most programmers, I'm a terrible designer, but at least I know what's good enough to steal!
- As promised, we released a creative commons data dump of all the Stack Overflow data including all questions and answers. We're excited to see what the community can do with this data; Brent Ozar put together a data mining video to get people started.
- Stack Overflow has become a very popular destination for iPhone development. This is completely accidental, but it is a valid reflection of the vibrant and growing iPhone development community. If you're an iPhone developer, check out the Mobile Orchard website and podcast, which even has a best of Stack Overflow for iPhone developers!
- Joel and I are tremendously impressed with Apple's development push for the iPhone, including the App Store. It is remarkably Microsoft-like, in a good way — it's completely driven by developers, developers, developers! "If you want to be a mobile developer, your #1 choice has to be Apple."
- Some comments on the sad state of Windows Mobile (rumored Silverlight reboot), Google Wave (go HTML 5!) and the Palm Pre (is HTML/JavaScript/CSS a viable development platform)?
- One downside of discussing questions on the podcast is that it leads to the Hawthorne effect, and sometimes radically changes the state of the question.
- Joel recommends SICP, The C Programming Language, The Unix Programming Environment, and Introduction to Algorithms as solid books for programmers who want to brush up on their fundamentals and potentially do well at programming interviews.
- We recommend checking out Jason Calacanis' podcast, This Week in Startups.
We answered the following listener questions on this podcast:
- Josh Hunt: "The first answer to my question, the answer that got the higest number of votes, was not correct — has Stack Overflow failed in the 'first answer is best' aspect?" and "We've been taught algorithms in our high school using pseudocode. What do you think of this?"
- "If I've applied for a job at Fog Creek (or anywhere else) and didn't quite make it, what can I do to improve myself as a programmer and have a better chance next time?"
Our favorite Stack Overflow questions this week are:
- Bubble Sort Homework. Homework questions are frowned upon on Stack Overflow, but there is a right way to ask them — and a way to get the community to help you while helping each other.

Podcast #56
This is the 56th episode of the StackOverflow podcast where Joel and Jeff sit down with Jason Calacanis to discuss the business side of software, including Mahalo's "Skee-Ball" economy, when VC funding is appropriate, and whether SEO matters.
- Jason Calacanis regales us with his tales of being a BBS script kiddie on his IBM PC Jr. He later got fired from his job in the Fordham computer lab for setting up a warez partition on one of the computers in the lab. Oh, and he installed a keylogger on his boss's computer, and sold pirated software on floppies, too. :)
- Jason was one of the earliest internet reporters on the east coast with Silicon Alley Reporter.
- Apparently the Q&A format — dubbed "Knowledge Exchange" — was pioneered in Korea with Naver and Daum, which Yahoo Answers copied for the US. In Korea, the primary way to get information is through users exchanging knowledge, not search algorithms.
- Rather than translate the app, Facebook apparently let users volunteer to translate different parts of the Facebook UI itself. Jason's Mahalo is not localized.
- In Korea, the main knowledge exchange sites are all noindexed, so Google is a non-starter there. If all the newspapers in the US noindexed as a consortium, Google would be screwed.
- Jason is a big fan of the badge system on Stack Overflow, which he plans to add to Mahalo. This of course is modelled on the Xbox 360 Achievements system; every badge in the system is there to encourage community building (and not inadvertently community destroying) behavior. It's a surprisingly fine line.
- Joel's big objection to Mahalo is that, like the now-defunct Google Answers, it turns an intrinsic motivation for asking and answering questions into an extrinsic motivation (hey, I can get paid real money for this!)
- Jason maintains that money is not the primary motivator on Mahalo. He calls it a "Skee-Ball Economy", where you are playing skee-ball for fun, and getting lots of tickets to cash out and buy fun things. It's a "token economy". You can't make a lot of money, but it (theoretically) adds a secondary driver to an already fun activity.
- Jason equates the Stack Overflow community with an "expert economy", akin to the open source software ecosystem. Jason mentioned that he has used nginx and hadoop mailing lists to identify people to hire and/or bring in to teach the other developers at Mahalo. My question is, why shouldn't Mahalo also be an expert economy?
- Jason says "I'm not so much into creating the financial system to get something out of people, it's more that I like to take work that was previously undercompensated or not compensated and make it into a career. I'm very proud of the fact that we [WebLogs, Inc.] were the company that made blogging into a career."
- Jason famously offered the top 25 users of Digg $1,000 a month to become community managers at Netscape. And 23 of the 25 users took that offer. Joel says this is like paying for sex — applying money at the one point where most people do not have a problem getting people to contribute to a community. Jason: "I may have made a mistake", but traffic increased, and he maintains there was already a shadow economy around paid submissions to Digg.
- Jason, who has a reporting background, ultimately wanted to add a layer of journalism and editorial control to the stories submitted to Digg. Even on "anything goes" vote driven sites like Digg, they do have one level of editorial control, in that stories can be "in dispute."
- Joel asks Jason — with your background in VC and funding, what would you do with Stack Overflow? Would you raise money? How, why, and for what? (Which reminds me: what's the difference between VC funding and a flaming bag of poop left on your doorstep? Trick question! There is no difference!)
- We now offer an integrated job board — if you're looking for gigs, or looking for a great programmer or sysadmin, check out jobs.stackoverflow.com and jobs.serverfault.com.
- A brief discussion of advertising strategies and philosophies. I'm very skeptical of self-serve advertising after my experience with Google AdSense, which performs abysmally badly on Stack Overflow.
- Are community-driven sites like Mahalo and Stack Overflow turning users into digital sharecroppers? Is it an economic system where people are working for praise? Does splitting the revenue with the user, ala Knol and Google Answers, really work? The track record for this approach is not good. And if you optimize for things that are popular, no matter what they are, then you end up with a site where every question is the programming cartoon question. I call this "Mahalo".
- In the next 6-8 weeks, we'll be launching the third site in the Stack Overflow trilogy — superuser.com. This is a site for power users and computer enthusiasts.
- Is writing software "hard"? That depends on your tolerance for frustration and what you happen to be building.
- Jason, as a serial entrepreneur, points out that there is no downside or risk to starting a company and failing in the United States. If you have great ideas, don't just let them marinate in your brain forever — get out there and start building them!
- One of my favorite Calacanis posts is Why people hate SEO … and why SMO is bullcrap. 90% of SEO is simple rules for building clean HTML. The other 10% is that SEOs are really just life coaches who need to transform their clients into something awesome that people actually care about. What you really need to optimize for is being awesome. And that's a bit harder than pulling some SEO out of your magic bag of tricks.
We answered the following listener questions on this podcast:
- Brian McKay: "I recently read the book Dreaming in Code. One of the concepts in the book is that software development is a very difficult profession — that software and surgery are two of the most difficult things that a person can attempt. Do you agree with this?"

Podcast #55
This is the 55th episode of the StackOverflow podcast where Joel and Jeff discuss killer IDEs, how much interview feedback is appropriate (for both parties), and how to teach young programmers who think they know it all.
- Server Fault has launched! If you're a sysadmin or IT pro type, please join us there.
- You may have noticed that woot! is the launch sponsor of Server Fault. These sorts of (hopefully) tasteful advertiser relationships underwrite continued development of the site — and let us do cool things like bring on Geoff Dalgas as Stack Overflow Valued Associate #00003!
- What does it mean to be successful as a writer online? Perhaps one metric of success is getting people you respect and admire to link to your writing in an organic, natural way (that is, without asking them to).
- Steve Yegge indicated he may blog anonymously or not at all in the future. We suspect that Steve's high profile as a notable software blogger makes it difficult for him at Google, which is a notoriously secretive company. Not Apple secretive, mind you, but close. We agree that as much as Steve writes, it's coming out of him one way or the other, but unfortunately it may be anonymous from this point on.
- If we can render virtual 3D worlds at 60 frames per second, why haven't our software development IDEs evolved much beyond ASCII text for layout? How about visual comments? And Lutz Roeder wonders about Interactive Source Code (ppt). Why not have diagrams in the code, or even better, dynamic visualization of the data structures in that code?
- My thoughts on what it takes to build a killer IDE. I'm still waiting, by the way.
- An analysis of what it takes to have a vibrant add-in ecosystem, while still folding in the most popular add-ins to the core of the product, where they rightfully belong. This is a fine line to walk, particularly for commercial software.
- It really is amazing how many problems go away when your software is all open source. Except for the "how do we pay our employees" one.
- How much feedback should job interview candidates get when the interview doesn't work out? Joel and I have an extended discussion. This is a lot tricker than it seems at first glance. At some level, perhaps you have to treat job interviews (particularly at extremely selective companies like Fog Creek) like romantic relationships — sometimes there just isn't chemistry. Rather than over-analyze it, learn what you can, and move on to the next relationship.
- Don't ask what programming language beginning programmers should learn — ask what type of programming do you want to train people to do! Do you want to teach theory, or skill?
- Joel's example of the MIT curriculum of robot programming is a fantastic one: "what they care about is not the actual language. It's not a matter of teaching you the Python, it's teaching you to be a programmer in an environment where everything is constantly falling down around you, nothing as works as documented, even if there were documentation, and there isn't, and if there was documentation, it was probably written by a technical writer who was afraid to go into the programmer's offices because the last time she went in she got her head bitten off."
- How to deal with headstrong know-it-all beginning programmers? Been there, done that. And by that I mean I was one, too. You have to fail. In fact, make them fail, if you can. As Joel says, they have to learn that "no code that you write can ever possibly work." We know. Alternately, throw a copy of Code Complete at them, if they're in a place where they can actually learn from it.
- Possibly one of the worst scenarios for beginning programmers is to be in a company where everyone is a beginning programmer. It does help to have some seasoned veterans in the mix, otherwise you're basically living out Lord of the Flies — and if you don't know who Piggy is, then it's you.
We answered the following listener questions on this podcast:
- "I read on Steve Yegge's blog that he's not going to blog any more. What are your thoughts on this?"
- Chris: "Can you point to a particular article or time where you realized that your blog was going somewhere?"
- Ohad: "Why can't rich comment be put in source code as comments? Why not use images, document snippets, and so forth?"
Our favorite Stack Overflow questions this week are:
- How can I teach a know-it-all beginner programmer? Many of us start out this way, sadly, so put yourself in.. er.. your own shoes.
- What programming language should be taught in Computer Science 101? Maybe the question is fundamentally wrong.

Action Pack
TEENAGE DREAMS: THE POP PRINCESS Sing-Along
Director | The Action Pack |
Run Time | 120min |
Age Policy |
18 and up; Children 6 and up will be allowed only with a parent guardian. No children under the age of 6 will be allowed. |
We just celebrated Boy Bands in our last Sing-Along, so it's the perfect time to look at their XX (chromosomed) counterparts – the pop princesses!
While JT was hanging out with Joey and Lance, Britney and Christina were busy getting started on their solo careers early.
The massive success of Hit Me Baby (One More Time) and all of Christina's pre-"Dirty" hits ushered in a new era of younger divas with huge voices, choreographed dances, and a girl power attitude that took what the Spice Girls had started in the '90s and cranked it up to make the take no prisoners anthems of the '00s, with everything from "Since U Been Gone" to "Before He Cheats" competing to be the top song love sick teenagers could listen to on repeat while screaming along on their drive to school in the morning.
This month the Action Pack is bringing together all of these ladies into one super group of pop music ambition and excellence with TEENAGE DREAMS: THE POP PRINCESS SING-ALONG.
We'll have your Britney, your Avril, some Madonna, Rihanna, Taylor Swift, Miley Cyrus, Lady Gaga, and, of course, we will have NO Hollaback Girls, because this sh*t is bananas – B-A-N-A-N-A-S. (Henri Mazza)
