I was about to post the exact same idea. I don't know if it would be efficient (plus mechanicaly lifting up a building is an engineering nightmare to do) but it would be a very elegant way of storing solar energy, or…
I discovered it (the skinos brand) in greece this summer (Halkidiki-sithonia : magnificent beaches), just with an ice cube. Very unusual smell (reminiscent of pine trees) and very nice taste. I am still to find someone…
Even when it comes to electronic music, most of the stunning new sounds we come across are achieved by hacking or tweaking simple systems : over use of compressor, overuse of LFO for dubstep basses, bitcrushing, use of…
Somewhat related (released in 2002) the Hartmann neuron. http://www.vintagesynth.com/misc/neuron.php Never had the "chance" to put my hands on it.
Hope to see some improvements for the A+ in the future either. There are not many low power alternative to it right now (the zero would be but too scarce right now). Out of the box a pi 3 is roughly sucks 300/400 mA…
Few verifiable facts? I'm sure you can verify that the author really has a garden and controls weeds using round-up (why remove weeds by hand which is totally feasible, part of growing a garden responsably, and an…
Somewhat (maybe) related : another world from Éric Chahi used to support the pc speaker as sound output, and had digitized sound effects and voices (very low quality but still incredible).
There ils also an issue with making different cars from different car makers cooperate efficiently. When an accident can't be avoided, involved cars would need to share info and processing power to behave optimaly and…
I immediately ordered one. It does not have a camera port though, I hoped there were ways to operate the camera through the GPIO but could not find anything.
I found it and it was a PC sorry for the wrong lead. http://www.hpmuseum.net/display_item.php?hw=43 Awesome piece of gear anyway. My first computer, given to me by my uncle in 92.
Anyone remember a pre PC era computer with a "touch screen" and a printer built into the screen?
He fails at getting the most he can out of every dollar since he overpays Mary according to the rest of his quote.
Well for most of us €30 (the cheapest I found here in france) for a tablet makes it a disposable device (this is different in developping countries). There is a recycling tax here that is as low as ~5 cts for a tablet…
A budget android tablet can cost slightly less than $60, and comes with the touch display, the processing power ( more than a raspberry's), the memory (more than a raspberry's), embedded wifi, bluetooth, sometimes GPS,…
About comparing with the ability to digest lactose, the big difference it is notably "easier" for evolution to keep in adulthood a gene that exists in 100% of children than to come up randomly with something that would…
You can also use an old usb keyboard controller board. Besides the hassle of point to point soldering all keys to the keyboard controller matrix (after mapping all combinations), you get a USB compliant device.…
There are ~ three employees (ok sometimes 1 or 2) managing complaints in every average size home appliance store throughout the world, so why not for a successful internet company?

I really liked the player when I was a a teen, I would always pick the Fiorentina in FIFA games to play with him. Overmedication (if not worse) so that he can always be on the field has put him in this condition. Very…
Many examples would prove you right, but I can't help thinking it would be better to fuel someone's desire for excellence instead of abusively pushing him. Counter example would be Marion Bartoli who won wimbledon…
You can imagine composing a mask from several images using Join or Union. Summing up images to make HDR, only on some areas of the pictures based on different criteria to produce the mask. Another possibility would be…
You could even apply it to the mask resulting from the select. Mathematical morphology, advection using several pictures, interpolation, there are many use case that would be possible with a single query. But maybe I'm…
I find this interesting, but I also would like to see more complex use cases. For example using using some kind of select union on several images to output a synthetic image highlighting differences or similarities?
When it came out the PS2 was a rather cheap DVD player considering it also was a gaming console. I think the PS3 was among the cheaper if not the cheapest bluray player when it was released. And I found pretty cool that…
