Completely agree what said in the post, it is also addiction and tiresome day makes one look for little bit chill in the mind. Beer definetly does it. Anyone has any thoughts on "rewarding yourself" other than one mentioned in the post are welcome

Yes, dont see any comment since it should've been a hot topic. Was wondering if it is removed?

I think most likely MS openly supported, APL based .NET system would do far more magic for now. Next should be Windows Mobile.

New comment by vadivlkumar in "What is algebra?"

vadivlkumar — Wed, 28 Aug 2013 02:51:29 +0000

Great explanation, worth an article! My thinking was more of a struggle a student has to take to correlate with a abstract concepts like algebra while in school. It is almost impossible for a kid to really look meaningful context out her daily maths class. However, all this concepts are born out of "need". If that "need" magically does not gets shown to kids "in their own language" there is going to be lot of trouble in bringing up right math power.

I guess the teaching style has to change. Was also wondering, folks in this thread, talking great things about math are teachers? Should be less, I guess!

When I know the connection already and interested in job what's the point of hiding it. I can always ask the connection that they have any opening for me. May be I am missing something here or the page is not explaining it enough. Good luck!

In a different perspective, was wondering if this approach gives any goodness to eyes for the kids since they don't do GUI much. Any thoughts, skypeople (just watched avatar) :)

Don't worry about your English, just continue to do what you are doing. But understand one thing, what you are doing is only worth to learn one or two. If FB is paying you are not is not really matters!

I was little irritated your English was criticized heavily! And it's more irritating when a security team misses to understand a security issue when I was able to understand

New comment by vadivlkumar in "Which is more secure, DotNet or Ruby on Rails?"

vadivlkumar — Sun, 11 Aug 2013 19:22:04 +0000

To be honest, being a guy in both lands for living, ASP.NET is much more to offer as a base framework that worries about security.

Obviously, now and then security vulnerabilities opens up, in all such occasions RoR prompts before you think about MS patch! It is something to do with MS release cycles, even though you can fix it as most of this frameworks (ASP.NET MVC or Web Api) are opensource ones.

I think your question is open ended that you cannot expect one answer.

For example, if you're worried about SQL Injections it is purely a framework like Entity Framework or NHibernate is to question about or in other cases how you're dealing with SQL queries (Are you using StringBuilder to build your query yet?) otherwise there are answers in both the land for every known security issues.

What if Amazon realizes there is no one book of a book

vadivlkumar — Sun, 11 Aug 2013 19:15:02 +0000

I happened to think about Amazon or anyone are wanting to develop Kindle's and Motherhood's on developing devices to read books.

My thought was - the book you're reading in that case is a finished one. What if you happened to read the author's mind that ended up being this book? What if the author was able to showcase his directions he was wrong and right to become this book? I think of like Kickstarter's project where you show off everything before you reach your goal and thus attracting people to know more about your project.

Thoughts are very much appreciated!

This is purely arrogant! Think of other such popular services they were much more concern about thier FREEMIUM users comparing to paid services like AppStore dev centre.

At least they should disclose why it is taking too long for restoring every services.

Hey, I am a git lover. I am trying to say it is straight on your face to keep you cultured. Looks like it sounds different if I read it now.

It's fun to read Linus writings. It's rude and on the face. Git is exactly him, rude and on the face. Does wonders!

I second this decision. Porn should not be enabled by default from ISP. I have families ruined because of porn watching children/dads! They know how to bypass URL filtering etc.,

One of the problem we face now on our product is same thing and we also do a similar excercise to improve product usability. But what we found was most of the suggestions were purely subjective and biased. Picking up right audience is the key. For example, instead of calling a CEO who is going to buy my product to evaluate i would rather invite someone who will use this product for living.
