Anybody know why it is a cycling (circular) motion rather than a linear stepping motion? It looks like the apparatus has a strange rolling motion which needn't be as pronounced.
Yes! Get a clear picture of what you want from this. Know your own mind before you enter into serious conversations with the company. Best case, you both win.
COM is not windows specific any more! Or rather there is a portable COM-like thing which looks like a good fit for cross language development https://github.com/Microsoft/xlang It's from the team who delivered cppwinrt…
I also really enjoyed the course. The book behind this course is called "The Elements of Computing Systems". I've been recommending it to lots of people.
Not a fix at all! It shows how to disable SSLv3 on a IE and some http servers.
Yay for Nintento and boo to patent trolls. The article is rather lightweight and short. It doesn't say what the claims actually were.
From the link: Europlugs are only designed for low-power (less than 2.5 A) Class II (double-insulated) devices that operate at normal room temperature and do not require a protective-earth connection.

> There are now inductive loops as you traverse the offramp. They sense if your car is exceeding a given speed, and they trigger a red light at the end of the offramp if you are. Then, after that turns green, the…
One part in the article really caught my attention: Recruiting and hiring isn’t considered a core activity I think that once your company grows beyond a certain size, it must become so. We hired a full time in-house…
Does nobody else find the repetition objectionable? e.g. NEW = ('N', 'New'), If your values have good names, you can easily deduce "Some Constant" from SOME_CONSTANT or vice-versa. While I'm at it, having abbreviations…

I agree, reading assembly is a great skill to have for some domains. You'll almost never write assembly these days, except in the most niche of niches. A much more productive approach is to use intrinsics in a higher…
We've done this. A modified clang-interpreter spits out some json. Python scripts consume the it and generate reflection data, script bindings etc. We're very happy with the results. It's a little bit slower than hand…
The single worst thing that people do wrong when writing regular expressions is to use .* x when really they should use [^x]* x (i.e. the common case of looking for some kind of terminator 'x') The worst case I ever saw…
Yes, it's mostly for entertainment value. However, I didn't previously know about the commmand-t plugin. It made the read worthwhile, independent of entertainment.
For most people on HN I suspect this would be more like: 1. Close your IM, email and browser
What a strange infographic. Why are google & oracle on opposite sides, but nokia & quallcomm neighbors? Deliberate or accidental? It looks more "graphic" than "info".
818 is certainly worth a look. Pretty amazing really.
Ouch, it looks like defragging your SSDs became worthwhile again!
Looks lovely. This works really well - I've been doing the same thing on paper for years. I do find however, that you need to make the recipe a few times from the long winded version which will often have tips or extra…
I spent quite a few days tinkering with putting linux onto a nas device which was a lot of hassle and didn't perform well (music streaming). In the end I just got an cheap fanless atom board and was done in a few hours.…
As anybody with a netbook can tell you that many videos which are extremely choppy in flash (yes, even if fully buffered) are quite playable in vlc for instance. Now given that one of the main uses for flash is…
I've often heard of this, but only just read it for the first time. When reading this, I was struck by how much more horrifying it would be if the characters were running on the computer instead of being physically…
It always amuses me to hear talk of this wonderful universal language of mathematics. On a certain level, it's true but in each field of mathematics there are many notational differences. Not quite whole new languages…
