So, when does P#P come out?
Pinboard.in + Delibar = done.
Yes, that is a strange omission. My first VR experience was using his equipment at a VR conference in the 90's, playing a virtual tennis game. It was cool as hell, but during a 'racket' swing, I accidentally smacked an…
He says it's like "PHP++" but I like to say it's more like P#P.
What about bioremediation? Bring in microorganisms, bacteria and fungal spores, from healthy forests, and inoculate this one?
I always open such links in a Chrome incognito window. Apparently there is still a page count, but it gets reset every time you open a new window.
Maybe it can't buy happiness, but it can definitely rent it.
7, among the highest for my cohort. Although it's possible the sorting heuristic I used helped, basically a loose binary sort followed by closer inspection and comparison of proximate squares. Increased the zoom level…
Succeed or not in their stated goal, it could end up throwing off a lot of interesting science, assuming actual bio/neuro/genetic science is backed by the venture. Presumably all this enhanced by vast amounts of…
I'd pay for Trello 3D. With music.
It would be interesting to see a comparative ROI study of several large, publicly-funded, projects similar to the HGP. Such data would be useful in debates about policy, one would think.
Another great organization working on this model is http://givedirectly.org, co-founded by the irrepressible Rohit Wanchoo. We had lots of discussion around this model, since his team had done a lot of research around…
Granted, the OP indicates that indeed it is difficult to get advanced pricing because it entails asking the doctor for the code, then checking with the insurance company. But what's stopping people from voluntarily…
This is all fine and dandy, but there's too much emphasis on finding the "engineer at fault" and blaming.
It's great that he decided not to jump immediately to another job. Unless you are in a financially tight situation, you really need some time to decompress your mind, and clear it of any company-dynamics residue.
IANAP, but if this material is "jet black", i.e. absorbs most light, and also highly conductive, wouldn't it also be a great component for organic solar cells? Graphene is apparently already an interesting candidate for…
The irony is that many of this "silent and modest" group, would also not bother to react to the discussion here.
Although certainly not without its issues, the most popular solution for that platform is Gearman http://gearman.org . It's fairly ops-intensive, but the most friendly for PHP without having to resort to things like…
FWIW, we have followed along this move at Etsy, where we've been using this CI server for many months now. We started out with Hudson, but after observing the unethical shenanigans from Oracle (particularly the erasure…
1: create webcam-n-gun rig. 2: mount the whole setup on a walking robot. 3: ?? 4: apocalypse
Wait, they fly airplanes full of diapers to the West Coast!? I wonder what quantity of jet fuel exhaust gets spewed into the atmosphere, just so you can get diapers the next day. Even with the increased per-worker…
Hey Joshwa, thanks for the tweet-vite, I'm glad to share. Etsy is successful, ultimately, not because of some putative secret sauce (though we do have very powerful and unique behind-the-scenes tech). We are successful,…
