you sir, are a genius

I'm not sure exactly why a non-fissile material with a half life this long is a "problem". By definition it's not.

Beside these are the burnup rates for Once-Through solid fuel cycles. In Uranium reactors this is only recommended if you are actively trying to create weapons material, and in Throium it simply doesn't work. Not sure what the relevance of these articles is.

"Bite me, please" 83/100

Repeat after me: Regulatory Capture

not to forget the Memoiz Module pattern from http://weblog.bocoup.com/organizing-your-backbone-js-applica...

They also wore more hats. Or the market was different, or they weren't dealing with labor shortages, or their predecessors set the stage differently, or inflation has increased 580% since 1970....

It's not possible to tease out the cause and effect.

Fortunately there is an easier way to figure it out; if the businesses are hiring idiots, at far to much money the easy way to tell they are doing it is their stock price will plummet and they will go out of business.

And how would the company have performed if they hired a less expensive CEO?

Fantanomics.

For what it's worth, I've personally met with 3 European angel funds in the past 2 weeks. One of which was actually government backed corporation (that had been given explicit permission to enter Israel)

In that case wouldn't it be better to compare London to Tel-Aviv?

Yes! But only after there is a living community.

Technorati reports 112M blogs, most are not super talented like PG or other top bloggers (OK essayists). I count my self in that category. So there's quite a few that would fit my target market.

I hadn't actually considered the option of having customers pay for quicker responses. It's an interesting idea. Once it's reached the stage where billing is integrated this would make an interesting layer.

Video is too long. Check.

Thanks, I'll try and redo the screen cast tonight! Also, do you think it's too long? Should I produce a short-short version?

metal punch cards, stored in low acid clay vessels in a very dry place. Seems to have worked so far... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copper_Scroll

Because array syntax is clearer (to me), does the exact same thing, and the speed of a computer doubles every 24 months but programmers don't.

The only meaningful edit I made was a ; after the do{}while(). All of the other edits were just for formating sake. Didn't think it a bother.

Where should I submit it?

What can I say, after C every other language is just adding idioms.

You never forget your first love. Oh others came before her, and after, but no one can replace her or what she taught you.

Perhaps the indication is that your app isn't as generally appealing as you thought?

Have you received any feedback on "missing" features? Done any measurement of what aspects your existing userbase does use?

Again it's a question of definitions. Israelis define "religious" differently. About 20-30% of Israelis are what Americans would consider "religious", about a 1/3 of that is "ultra-religious".

The 20% that consider themselves "secular", REALY mean secular. As in, hard-core-athiest. They eat pork, and it's not a statement, it's just meat. You'd love them.

To clarify what lies between let me explain. In a recent survey some 75% of Israelis claimed to keep some form of kosher. For the majority of that sample space "kosher" meant lobster but no pork. Both equally unkosher, but there is a stigma attached to pork. All the same, these same lobster-jews would be very offended if you called them non-religious, they are in their OWN WAY. In American definition they are "non-practicing", but not in their own.

The "subsantial-minority" is a weasel word. But is largely limited to what would be termed "ultra-religious", and they are entitled to their opinion, thats a democracy for you. Last I checked, there was a substantial-minority in the US that considered seculars dangerous, their called the religious right.

Either way, this has NOTHING to do with startups.

Israelis, like anyone else, are complex people. Up close, Israelis are hard working, an incredible combination of the empathic and the aggressive. Some are good some are bad, most are a bit of both.

And speaking as a religious person, everyone questions their faith, and even more their "religion". I don't know anyone who is that simple. Don't turn people into caricature.

why do I have the overpowering feeling that the post was written by the author of the book?

OMG it's the Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy!

The theory is predictive. It can be used with 67% accuracy to find new oil deposits. That is both falsifiable and HUGELY practical. The bulk of expense in oil extraction is finding the oil in the first place, which is why the Middle east is so attractive, it's all at the surface, shallow drilling and easy testing.

If this theory pans out, and as he says that oil is distributed all over the world; it means that oil gets MUCH cheaper and unstable regions can go F@#$ themselves, we'll just drill somewhere else.
