I'm running ubuntu 12. Today I had a power outage, and now I get an error when I boot up. I'm fairly new and have been trying for about 6hours to figure something out.

Mountall:/lib86x_64-linux-gnu/libc not found (required by /lib/libply.so2) General error mounting file systems

An then the shell starts up.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Hugh Pickens writes "Steve Blank, a professor at Berkeley and Stanford and serial entrepreneur from Silicon Valley, says that the the Facebook IPO is the beginning of the end for Silicon Valley as we know it. "Silicon Valley historically would invest in science, and technology, and, you know, actual silicon," says Blank. "If you were a good venture capitalist you could make $100 million." But there's a new pattern emerging created by two big ideas that will lead to the demise of Silicon Valley as we know it. The first is putting computer devices, mobile and tablet especially, in the hands of billions of people and the second is that we are moving all the social needs that we used to do face-to-face onto the computer and this trend has just begun. "If you think Facebook is the end, ask MySpace. Art, entertainment, everything you can imagine in life is moving to computers. Companies like Facebook for the first time can get total markets approaching the entire population." That's great for Facebook but it means Silicon Valley is screwed as a place for investing in advanced science. "If I have a choice of investing in a blockbuster cancer drug that will pay me nothing for ten years, at best, whereas social media will go big in two years, what do you think I'm going to pick?" concludes Blank. "The headline for me here is that Facebook's success has the unintended consequence of leading to the demise of Silicon Valley as a place where investors take big risks on advanced science and tech that helps the world. The golden age of Silicon valley is over and we're dancing on its grave.""

The simplest tutorial I found was still insanely long and wanted me to divide my site into sections and call them back together through PHP and honestly it seems kind of crazy that there is no way easier way to do it. Can anyone refer to a simpler way to do it, or is there one? I noticed Wordpress has a static page option under reading settings that another confusing tutorial mentioned, could it help with it? Thanks guys!

Apologies if this comes up commonly, but google and search didn't help me too much.

I am faced with the problem that, as a developer, I often didn't design the sites that I built. And I'm wondering if I can put these in my portfolio anyways.

Would I have to just mention that I did the development, or name and link of the designer? What if both designer and developer worked for another client, in which case the design is not 'owned' by the designer?

And would I have to contact the designer?

I'm also curious... if a designer creates a website, does he/she generally mention the developer who created it?

Finally, aside from what is 'proper', what is the legal side of this?

(I work from The Netherlands)

DerekduPreez writes "The UK government has finally unveiled the second iteration of its Cloudstore after a number of delays, and has reneged on its pledge to make version 2.0 open source. Cloudstore is an online catalogue that the public sector can use to procure cloud services provided by suppliers signed up to the G-Cloud framework. The first version of the Cloudstore was unveiled in February. Computerworld UK spoke to former G-Cloud director Chris Chant shortly after the first release, who was at the time also overseeing the second iteration. He stated during his interview that Cloudstore 2.0 would be go live in April and it would be built using open source code. However, following weeks of delays, the Cabinet Office has now confirmed that the second iteration also isn't open source."

First time accepted submitter ourlovecanlastforeve writes "Those of you still hanging on to Jaguar and Land Rover as the last vestiges of the truly British automobile in the States may find yourselves grasping at straws as Chery announces a nearly two billion dollar joint effort with the auto brand to move production to Changsu in China." Anyone still hanging on to that idea might also be interested to learn that Jaguar and Land Rover are subsidiaries of India's Tata, maker of the low-priced Nano.

I'm looking for for a relatively inexpensive portable MP3 player that will play nice with Mint/Lubuntu. It doesn't need to be anything too fancy, just with shuffle, and playlist support. So r/linux, what do you suggest?

Edit: I'm referring to a portable Ipod-like device, though It doesn't have to be able to run applications.

It's responsive and uses TypeKit, jQuery and a tiny bit of Bootstrap.
