True | strolls | null | Uh, I read that as any company would have a Chief Marketing Officer, just as they might have a Chief Engineering Officer and a Chief Development Officer and "chief execs" for internal IT infrastructure, resources / human resources, and so on.
It's just that conventionally, all those other "chief execs" come *under* the CEO.
As I read that letter the complain was that the CEO was lazy &/or incompetent and he ceded too much power to the CMO. | null | 0 | 1316815356 | False | 0 | c2m4dy2 | t3_kp0u2 | null | t1_c2m4dy2 | t1_c2m44wy | null | 1427639045 | 2 | t5_2fwo | null | null | null |

True | Rhomboid | null | Chrome's web developer tools have an option you can enable to pretty-print JS, which helps when dealing with minified code. Chrome also lets you set breakpoints on the clipboard events, which is really handy.
There's really nothing particularly advanced going on here. It registers a copy event handler (`addEventListener("copy", ha, false);`). That handler gets the copied content, adds the citation and limits the copied text to 100 chars, I guess in a futile attempt to prevent copying whole articles. It then creates a temporary off-screen div with this new text, sets the selection range to that element, and copies it to the clipboard, effectively changing the copied value. In the minified code this is in function named "Ba", if you want to search for it. | null | 0 | 1316815462 | False | 0 | c2m4efp | t3_kp82i | null | t1_c2m4efp | t1_c2m1vqj | null | 1427639041 | 2 | t5_2fwo | null | null | null |

True | subheight640 | null | IMO Facebook is one of the most brilliant webpages ever created.
Its exclusivity - first to *college students only*. Slowly unrolled from one university to another.
Its simplicity - it was just too easy to make a facebook - if you were cool enough to be able to join.
Finally, its functionality - fulfilling the need for stalkers everywhere to get their fix. The need for people to "feel" like they're popular even if they're not.
A brilliant website, designed to feed off of humanity's most base instincts.

> If it's in your where clause, it probably deserves and index
That's a good starting point, but for the most part (there are a few exceptions in Oracle Enterprise, but I mostly don't understand how they work), any given query is only going to use one index per table. The database is going to pick the one that can narrow down to the fewest number of records, and then it's going to have to read all the rest one-by-one.
What the database does with an index isn't much different than what you would do if you have a printed list of stuff in a known order.
If you have a printed list of people's cars sorted by color, and another list of cars sorted by year, knowing that blue cars start on page 13 doesn't tell you anything about where to find 2003 cars. On the other hand, if you have a list sorted by color and then year, it's just as useful for finding blue cars (if that's all you cared about), but then you don't have to read the whole blue section to find a blue 2003 Cavalier. | null | 0 | 1316818357 | False | 0 | c2m4r2i | t3_kmp73 | null | t1_c2m4r2i | t1_c2m3iaz | null | 1427639209 | 1 | t5_2fwo | null | null | null |

True | FrankBattaglia | null | >In 1998, barely 40% of US households had computers and less than 20% had access to the Internet,
I'd like a cite for that. It could be accurate, but I don't know anyone that didn't have Internet access when I was in high school, and most of us already had broadband. Regardless, *consumer* Internet penetration is a red herring. **Copyright** is the protection against consumer copying of software. What patents protect against is competitive creation. Regardless of how many average Joe's and soccer mom's had Internet access, you can't honestly tell me that *software developers* (the only people to whom software patents have relevance) weren't widely using the Internet before 1998. Hell, Linux got started in 1993, and that was a project which took place over the Internet exclusively.
>there is much more incentive to create software AND protect software.
Again, Microsoft, Oracle, Sun, AT&T, IBM, et al. didn't seem to suffer from a lack of motivation during the 80's and 90's. Looking at them *now*, however, one wonders just how much the advent of software patents have promoted progress...
>the existence of hardware allows an endless supply of software to complement it.
This, actually, is the economics argument *against* software patents. In brief, commodity hardware makes the internalized cost of software innovation low, while simultaneously making the externalized costs of exclusion high.
Taking a step back, it sounds as if you know your conclusion (software patents are necessary) and are pulling a no true Scotsman argument (the software industry before 1998 wasn't a *real* software industry) to ignore the inconvenient history that contradicts with the conclusion. | null | 0 | 1316823225 | True | 0 | c2m5bk2 | t3_kosg9 | null | t1_c2m5bk2 | t1_c2m2dni | null | 1427639472 | 1 | t5_2fwo | null | null | null |

This kind of programming is simply meant to follow a standard and does not require the programmer to invent anything new. There are some programmers who get into programming who just want a steady paycheck and are not concerned about the creative value of their work, these people are perfect for *non-passionate* code monkey jobs.
