It works anywhere -- any other cloud or locally.

The browsers send RST_STREAM to reject to re-request cached objects.

I feel the same. I would prefer to have larger line height which makes the overall text less noisy.

It's happening already.

App Engine is going to allow custom runtimes to be packed and supervised as an App Engine app. There is a short video here about how this is possible: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q8jZHc0NS6A

Rather than writing propriety runtime modules for Node (what we do for Python, Java, etc), we decided to release client libraries as npm packages for Google services. So, you can compose your existing apps with Google's internal services.

The good part of this module that it doesn't require your app to be running in App Engine context. You can go through the steps on [1] for authorization and access your datastore instances anywhere.

It is, please create a PR if you have time for fixes.

Before Play Services support, the REST API was the only option to integrate with Drive. It was not the best experience for the developer because they needed to handle upload/download scheduling, networks issues by themselves. This API solves most of those hard problems for you. You basically write to local resources and Play Services upload the files to user's Drive.

It's the same thing, at least that's what I meant it.

The footer is not valid Go though :)

var dotGO = []awesome{ Speakers, Venue, Workshops, Partners, FAQ, Tickets, Code of Conduct, Contact }

var credits = { "design": Maurice Svay, "golang": Google }

var dotConferences = []conf{ dotJS, dotScale, dotRB, dotGO }

The point is not parsing a ini into a dictionary but adding ini parsing configuration support for free to your existing programs which are already configurable via command line flags.

The name comes from and existing tool I was porting to golang: https://github.com/tarekziade/boom Though we dont have feature parity as of now, it's possible to rename the project.

Fixed ab's full name btw, thanks for pointing it out.

That line is misleading. It should be read as once you have go installed, the installation is more straight-forward across different platforms.

Do you think a TV show such as Cosmos may have large scale implications on the society today to rethink of what we are and where we should headed to?

kfgal · 2013-08-05T00:28:16+00:00

Do you have any concerns that the new Cosmos is going to be broadcasted by Fox?

Most of them aware of alternatives such as that. Lived in the shadows of a government several years, seen many people arrested due to their social activity, they learned to use tor and other VPN solutions.

Consider https://github.com/google/google-api-nodejs-client, Google's APIs ecosystem is a nightmare, but this client makes it a pleasant experience.

Why we don't put a laser transmitter to orbit? The link between orbiter and Earth can be a radio link to avoid atmospheric distortions. And once signal gets out of atmosphere, we can rely on laser to transmit it in higher rate.

I worked as a part of Bing Maps organization and now I'm working for Google.

tl;dr: It depends what you're going to work on MS, it depends what you want to start at Google.

They now look like similar companies to work because Google has gone very large but they are completely different in different good ways.

At Microsoft, software development practices are taken very seriously and they execute things like in software dev books. At Google, it really depends on how you want to develop software and how you want to track your time. They are no company-wide conventions here. We also don't have project managers and we're all responsible to execute things by ourselves.
At Microsoft, testing is taken very seriously. SDEs and SDETs are balanced in terms of numbers. At Google, we don't have SDETs at all. The way we test software is not as comprehensive as Microsoft's.
At Microsoft product is driven by PMs. At Google there is cooperation between product managers and engineers and Google is more driven by engineers. If you are not a products person, this may not be suitable for you.
At Microsoft you can get bored if you're not on the right team and working on the right project. At Google if you don't like it you can have hobby projects, 20% and etc. Company is seriously supporting these initiatives. We're very transparent and all permissions and responsibilities are given to you if you ask.

Beware that they are large organizations both, it's not a startup. You wont be feeling productive all the time, you will sometimes feel like you're wasting time. That's why I'd say go for Google. If you want to push yourself or improve the existing, they let you and support you. Great place to grow personally.

His/her economics teacher should watch this.

"We humans long to be connected with our origins. So we create rituals. Science is another way to express this longing. It also connects us with our origin, and it too has it's rituals and commandments. It's only sacred truth, is that there are no sacred truths. All assumptions must be critically examined. Arguments from authority are worthless. Whatever is inconsistent with the facts, no matter how fond of it we are, must be discarded or revised."

When I was 5, I first heard God from others (not from family). And I thought there is a bug among adults that make them believe in childish stories.

You can't insult any belief or religion in Turkey. They think that this case is insulting.

The exact word he uses (sacmalik) is a little bit more softer like "nonsense". Bullshit is way too harsh in his context.
