Indeed, the signal metric is important. Queue depths or time from queue insert to removal work fairly well as it directly relates to the tasks performed.
Scripts let you do interesting analyses. Dialog, action (non-dialog), and directions all have their own syntax. I once wrote a tool that let you pick movies based on dialog complexity vs. ration action/dialog.
You also have to be careful to use the shooting script. The scripts available online are often many generations removed and quite different from the actually filmed scenes.
I mostly use Google Apps with enom, since it gives me the domain + email & all other google apps goodies "for free".
That said, I want to move a few domains away from GoDaddy but I am a bit confused how to do it the right way. Anyone have a good order-of-events list? I'd hate to lose the domains over a technicality when transferring. [edit: misspellings]
Thanks for the link. It looks like a nicely made app. Can you tell your friend the feedback form on the website is broken? It redirects to a google spreadsheet which forgets your initial form.
I think it's a bit of a misquote. I've heard it as the CEO saying something like "since you're under a lot of time press to get the stuff out the door in a week, and I don't know how to code, this is the only thing I can do for you right now"
[... Huffington coaxed Hastings to talk about leadership -- and one early experience that informed his leadership style.
Hastings recalled how, as a 25-year-old software programmer, he would stay up all night, propelled by coffee. He'd leave an array of mugs on his desk. Once a week, he would discover the cups cleaned. One day, he arrived at work at 4 a.m. and walked into the bathroom to discover the company's CEO, sleeves rolled up, washing the collection of nasty cups.
"That whole time, I thought it was the janitor," said Hastings, who said this had been occurring for a year. He asked his boss why. "He said, 'You do so much for this company, this is the only thing I can do for you.' ]
Simon, I know the work you and others have done and continue to do in the OpenID world, and it's commendable work.
The problem with OpenID and other Open Web work IMO is the sheer number of half-baked specs brought forward. Much more than any other standards group. I don't know why. “The nicest thing about standards is that there are so many of them to choose from,” like Tannenbaum said. Perhaps there is a general lack of attention span, a ohh-shiny problem, a not-invented-here problem that is particularly rampant in this community.
Mission City cafe, 2221 The Alameda. It's in Santa Clara, just outside S.J. Nice vibe, lots of students, open late.
The main library at 150 East San Fernando is awesome. Good coffee in the bottom, ample (private if you want) space in the eight floors. Open late cause it's shared with San Jose State.
I think it is incorrect to assume an immigrant kid faces adversity. Most of the emigration to SV is from well-off families with well-adjusted kids and they settle in well-off areas.
Full frame sensors almost completely remove the need for tripods. The light sensitivity is so awesome you can shoot up to ISO 64K without too much grain. This means you can take awesome pics in the dark with no shake.
