Maybe he just tried Firefox and Chrome like me?


Looks like you've got a stray </script> closing tag. It didn't work in Firefox on Mountain Lion, but it did in Chrome. I like it!


Thanks. That was part of the problem. Turns our $.get wasn't parsing the response data as JSON in firefox. fixed now!


Thanks! Looking into this meow


There's a secretary crash too! http://www.indeed.com/jobtrends?q=secretary&l=

But seriously, this is relative to other job postings, so you can't say it is necessarily a crash, it could just be that the diversity of job types is increasing, or other areas of the job market are growing faster than these particular ones.


I think it's just the job descriptions are changing, as one of the above posts shows by comparing "guru" and "ninja."

No one wants a "Secretary" anymore, they want "Front-Office." "Office Assistant," and other buzz-worthy people.

"Machine learning application on detecting nudity in images" Trying to make it awkward with the professor.


I bet the part they most enjoyed was creating the initial training set.

(if it's supervised learning they use, I haven't read the paper)


sudo !!

Instant favorite


I often alias `sudo` to `fucking` to help vent my frustrations

    $ rm -rf somedir
    rm: somedir/: Permission denied
    $ fucking !!


I have been known to use sudo when it is not appropriate to use the f-word ;)


Along the lines of magic shell variables, there's also '!$', which selects the last argument of the previous command. Often I'm looking at different aspects of the same file:

    $ file foo
    $ ls -lh !$
    $ vim !$


I don't find this one useful. [up-arrow] automatically inserts the last command, which gives a generic mechanism to correct the command and it requires no more typing than !!: [up-arrow][control-a]sudo [enter]


moving your hand over to arrow keys is why I would use the sudo !! version.


[control-p] then ;)


"The irony is, I really enjoyed the original post. Upon reflection, I believe there is something to be learnt there." -- Care to expand on that a tad?

I wholeheartedly agree with the part of the original post about love and ownership, but not so much about sex and intimacy.

Regarding vomiting - I'm not entirely convinced it's always from a complete lack of thinking on the poster's part. I feel like people are genuinely afraid of putting themselves out there, though they want to, and so try to be cryptic and vague. Perhaps that's from a lack of introspection, but I don't think that's always the case.

The way I see the world, what parades as 'love' between two people is actually 'attachment', that is, a selfish modification of love -- love of oneself.

Thence arises the two of the three dichotomies mentioned: commitment/exclusivity and love/ownership (although I would argue that perhaps love is used here in the context of a feeling rather than the more metaphysical 'recognition of oneness (identity) with another' that I prefer).

The apparent jarring presence of sex/intimacy (which you noticed) is what propelled me to ask the question of the OP originally.

By making a post you are 'putting yourself out there'. If you are not confident about the idea that that post represents, then why are you making it public in the first place?
