If it is truly facebook only, that eliminates this for me. Too bad.

Looks really interesting. I mainly use C while working on embedded code, how applicable is this book to embedded C?

If this isn't a great resource for embedded C, can anyone recommend a different book?

Just wondering if I should fill it out a second time, since I never saw a confirmation screen. I understand it will take some time to ship, just want to know the application actually made it into the database! :)

Did anyone get an email confirmation after applying for the dev kit? After I hit the button, it reloaded to the home page, and I haven't seen any emails.

The news is hitting me harder than I expected. More than just the products he made, I feel that he directly effected my life. I wouldn't be where I am in my life today, certainly would have the job I have today, if it wasn't for the years I spent at Apple. And I wouldn't have worked there if Steve hadn't first created the company, then later on saved it.

RIP SJ. You certainly changed the world.

This is a fantastic explanation. I've always had trouble "getting" imaginary numbers.... even though I've had to use the fairly often as an Electrical Engineer. This is the first time they've made intuitive sense to me.

Pretty cool. The github page has some good information that would be nice to have on domaincli.com (like who's registering the domain, how payment is handled, etc.)

Might still be useful for some embedded applications.

T-shirts were one of the ways that I could tell the culture at Apple was changing.

When I started interning there, there would be a new T-shirt for every new project we would ship. The engineers in my group would all where T-shirts from projects past.

By the time I started full time,and my entire tenure there, the T-shirt culture was over (at least in hardware). Whenever someone would bring it up, or request one for the project we were working on, the answer would be "That's not a priority any more" or "We just don't have the budget for that."

Thankfully the new company I work for has some very cool t-shirts!

This is pretty great. Any idea why it doesn't show prices for driving though? I'd love if I could enter the average MPG of my vehicle, and have it show an estimate of driving costs, so you can compare against flying for shorter trips.

I have this exact same issue. My nickname "nat" can be short for both Nathaniel and Natelie. And apparently there is a Natelie with the same last name as me, and she seems to use my email address with a dot in it. I've been getting frequent flier emails, school emails, and more. Whenever it is an automated email, I contact their customer service and explain the situation, then unsubscribe.

If the email seems to be personal, I respond and ask them to have "Natelie" contact me, but she never has.

I agree with you, it's very frustrating. I don't have any solution, but I'll be following this thread closely.

Interesting UI, but it seems to only show my inbox, not all of my other labels in gmail. I filter a lot of messages, so my inbox alone isn't too useful.

Nice start though.

How often do people recruit through cold-calls anymore?

I was at one of the companies mentioned, and was contacted by a recruiter from another one of the companies menteioned, but they contacted me through linked-in, not through a cold-call.

Did the agreement really matter anymore with all the alternative ways of communicating?

(I ended up leaving where I was, but didn't go to the place that was recruiting me.)

It asked me to update flash, and restart my browser. After that, I just get a grey screen. Edit: Safari 5.0.2, Snow Leopard, Click-to-flash installed, but with logic.ly whitelisted.
